Vaughn Taylor: Dean Flint

Quotes 

• Dr. Peter Wayne : [reading from a newspaper]  "In Las Vegas last night, a player was searched for a hidden computer because of the excessive number of his bets. Now, they found nothing, but he won over $2000 in less than an hour."

  Police Lt. Branch : So?

  Dr. Peter Wayne : And here, "A man whose car went off the road and turned over, pinning him under it on the Las Vegas highway, reported that a passing motorist stopped, lifted the car off of him, and then went on, saying that he'd get help." Now, that crap shooter watched the game for an hour before he made a bet, and I think he was keeping track mentally of every throw, computing the possible odds on every bet on that table as he went along - and then betting when those odds gave him the edge. Now, this is something that only a complex computer could normally handle, and I think that there's some likelihood that he, and the man who lifted the car, and the man who killed our night watchman are the same person.

  Dean Flint : Well, it seems far-fetched, but I have to admit it is possible.
