The concierge looks shocked and rushes for the manager. A minute later the two of them disappear upstairs.Johnny wrote: If you can help yourself.... don't go in. You seem like a nice fellow. Leave it to the police.
A few more minutes pass before pandemonium begins to break out with Ritz staff rushing up and down stairs. A visibly pale faced manager passes back through the lobby. He stares in horror at Elizabeth and Johnny at the bar, but does not approach them,instead he dashes back into his office. After five more minutes the concierge arrives back downstairs and the bells of police cars can be heard arriving outside the hotel.
