"It's my theory that this chap Meade is the arch-criminal and he's behind the whole thing."
"Meade" is in 210 phrases in 30 movies (with a lot of repetitions in "Gone With the Wind"), but "Althouse" is in none. I'm especially enjoying the Meades in the 1942 movie "Sherlock Holmes and the Voice of Terror."

Correction: I didn't use quotes. Subzin works like Google: without quotes, the hits can be pretty inexact. Still...

I'm a little surprised. It's an awfully corny expression, so why did only two thirds of the script writers go only part way, leaving out the "just"? It's so much crappier with the "just".
Does that mean Ann is Watson to Meade's Holmes or just Mrs Hudson?

Of course, if she's like this Hudson, she always steals the show.
(Do you think that will placate her?)
