"I mean, it's five minutes by car, not five minutes on foot. You might want to wait a couple more minutes."

"I mean when we're closer. I don't really want to try giving the cops a statement in my current array of limbs."
"Okay. I'm half tempted to whack him on the back of the head anyway--gentler than I would if I were actually trying to knock him out, but enough to give a corroborating bruise."

After all this has been dealt with and Daphne has been warned to be available to testify in court, she drives back to the shrubbery.
"He doesn't remember you, conveniently enough," she reports.
