Interrogations[]
- Shore
- National Guardsman (maintains order along the shore): What? A gold tooth? Not many folks with gold teeth. There's a barman right close by, at the Limping Dog Tavern. I'd hate to think he's been killed.
- Boatman (a young man): I found that bag sitting in the mud. Did you see? A gold tooth! I only know one man with a gold tooth. He lives with his daughter on the rue de la Verrerie, number 5.
- Bella's House
- Bella (daughter of missing man): What am I to do? I can't sleep, I scarcely eat. My father has disappeared! He's easily recognized—tall, has a gold front tooth. He can be rather strict, but he has my best interests at heart.
- Jamie MacArthur (Scottish tradesman): Bella's father went out to make some purchases three days ago and never returned. The grandmother is always making lists of errands for him.
- Old woman (Mother of missing man): I'm the girl's grandmother, bless her heart. I'm too frail to run errands, so her father would do them. I'd given him a list and sent him out to buy some things. I don't remember everything that was on that list, but I did want some things from the merchant right down the street on rue de Lombards.
- Butcher Shop
- Butcher (Groggy, bump on head.): Whoa. I musta been out for awhile. Took a real blow to the head. Fella came in here, I thought he was a customer. Then he jumped me in my own shop. He was wearing a tradesman's coat and a three-corner hat... Oh, he had some kinda crazy accent... Scottish, maybe?
- Shop
- Martin Lavalle (Shopkeeper): Oh, yes. The man with the gold tooth. A few days ago he came by, bought shoes and sundries. His next stop was a butcher's shop that he'd never visited before. Asked me where it was. He left his list behind.
- Tavern
- Barkeep (Has a prominent gold tooth): What'll it be?... Gold tooth? Yeah, this front one right here. I'm damn proud of it. Real tooth got knocked out in a bar fight.
Dialogue[]
Arno arrived at Bella's house to investigate.
- Jaimie: Bella. Listen to me, you mustn't carry on this way.
- Bella: Oh, Jaimie, he's been gone for days! What shall I do?
After collecting all the evidence, Arno made an accusation.
- Jaimie: Yes! I turned him into mincemeat, and he deserved it. Old miser.
Arno took Jaimie to jail, where the Scotsman continued to speak behind bars.
- Jaimie I shoulda chopped you up into haggis as well!
Arno spoke to Police Chief Charles Cochon de Lapparent.
- Charles: Chopped him up, eh? Nasty business. Well, pick a weapon.
Conclusion[]

The murderer was Jamie MacArthur, a Scottish tradesman and hopeful suitor to the victim's daughter Bella.
Frustrated by Bella's father's refusal to allow him to marry Bella, Jamie MacArthur concocted a plan to make him disappear. He intercepted one of the grandmother's frequent errand lists and wrote the address of an out-of-the-way butcher's shop on it. He then knocked out the butcher, waited until Bella's father arrived, killed him, and ground him up into haggis using the implements found there at the butcher shop. He disposed of the bones by tossing them into an old butcher's sack and throwing it into the river. |
