Пойман за башмак.

Мистер Ватсон собирался закрыть свой магазин, когда в него вошел мужчина в прекрасно сшитом костюме и попросил показать ему пару дорогих туфель. Мистеру Ватсону показалось, что он уже где-то видел этого человека; и вдруг он вспомнил, что видел это лицо по телевизору. Это был находящийся в розыске преступник (wanted criminal).

Мужчина примерил несколько пар туфель и купил одну пару, которую мистер Ватсон особенно рекомендовал ему.

“Туфли мне немного малы,” пожаловался мужчина, но мистер Ватсон заверил его, что они очень скоро растянутся (stretch).

На следующий день, как и ожидал мистер Ватсон, тот же мужчина, хромая, вошел в магазин. Сразу же он был окружен полицией. Мистер Ватсон специально продал преступнику пару туфель, которые были на размер меньше, зная, что он придет вернуть их в магазин на следующий день.
