Horace Rumpole : [coming through the door, causing a burglar alarm to sound loudly] Hilda, Hilda, what's wrong? Is it an air raid?
Hilda Rumpole : [pushing buttons on the controls of the alarm] Don't be so silly, Rumpole! It's perfectly simple.
[pressing the digits]
Hilda Rumpole : 3 - 4 - 8 - 9 - 6. You just press on this yellow button and you'll see it quiet immediately.
Horace Rumpole : [the alarm is silent] What else have you installed? Death rays? Man traps? Are you going to sit in the kitchen all night with a double barreled shotgun? Come on, old darling, you've got to give the criminal classes a chance to earn their living.
