Dr. Cranley : Monocane is a terrible drug.
Dr. Kemp : I never heard of it.
Dr. Cranley : You wouldn't, Kemp. It's never used now. I didn't know it was even made. It's a drug that's made from a flower that's grown in India. It draws color from everything it touches. Years ago they tried it for bleaching cloth. They gave it up because it destroyed the material.
Dr. Kemp : That doesn't sound very terrible.
Dr. Cranley : Yes, I know, but it does something else, Kemp. It was tried out on some poor animal - a dog, I believe. It was injected under the skin, and it turned the dog dead white, like a marble statue.
Dr. Kemp : Is that so?
Dr. Cranley : Yes, and it also sent it raving mad.
Dr. Kemp : You surely don't think...
Dr. Cranley : I only pray to God that Griffin hasn't been meddling with this ghastly stuff.
Dr. Kemp : He'd never touch a thing with madness in it.
Dr. Cranley : He might not know. I found that experiment in an old German book, just by chance. The English books only describe the bleaching power. They were printed BEFORE the German experiment.

Dr. Cranley : I think we must tell the police that Griffin's disappeared... but only that he's disappeared.

Dr. Cranley : Flora's worried about Griffin.
Dr. Kemp : I don't wonder. I should have thought at least he could drop a line.
Dr. Cranley : It's a queer thing.
