A bank robber in a rubber mask shoots a bank guard and tells a bank clerk standing nearby that "You'll get your cut later." March and a woman customer go to the aid of the guard and she pleads with March to get a doctor as the man needs help. "From a Doctor of Divinity, I'm afraid" responds March. The bank clerk, John Parrish, flees the bank in pursuit of the robber and trails him to the law offices of the shady attorney Ireton Boulder. Parrish then calls the police and later tells them no one except Boulder entered or left the office and Boulder's secretary confirms this. The police search high and low in the attorney's office but find no stolen bank notes and understandably suspicion falls on Parrish for being the robber's accomplice. But March believes Parrish's story. Although Inspector Ames is adamant that there are no notes hidden in the office, March tells him to think about "a mentally invisible piece of furniture," something that is so ubiquitous that we don't even think about it. . .
