Matthew Doyle, an employee of the Elliot Barnes Organization, is speaking with Mr. Johnson, his attorney. Johnson says "You understand that I can't prepare a proper defense unless you tell me everything". Doyle says "I understand". Johnson says "A lawyer who does not enjoy his client's fullest confidence ...." Doyle says "Mr. Johnson, I understand. Believe me. Just tell me what you need to know. I won't hold anything back". Johnson says "All right. I want to know how you got involved in this thing. Oh, I don't mean the money angle. I can understand anyone wanting more money, but how ...." Doyle says "How could a small fry like me get tied up with a big man like Elliot Barnes?" Johnson says "I guess that's it. You were just one of the accountants there, weren't you?" Doyle says "Yes, one of three". Johnson says "And in the period of eighteen months ...." Doyle says "I was vice president of the company". Johnson says "Yes. How did it happen? How or why?" Doyle says "Yes, that's better. Why? I wanted to get ahead. I could have let it alone. I didn't have to do what I did". Johnson says "That is what I am trying to get at". Doyle says "I wish I could answer you, Mr. Johnson, why I did it. I guess there's one time for everybody when there's a chance to get ahead ... the easy way. Time when you've got a choice. Stay where you are, 5,500 a year for the rest of your life. Skimp, save, work, work your eyes out ...." Johnson says "Or take what you want, like Elliot Barnes". Doyle says "That's it". Johnson says "Go ahead, please". Doyle says "Well, I got that chance eighteen months ago. I was wrong to take it. I know that now. And I did fight it for a while, but it looked too good, too easy. Every time I went over my account books, I realized I was on to something big. I kept saying to myself to go to the police. Tell them. It's the only honest thing to do. But I didn't go to the police. I went to Mr. Barnes' office instead".
