With an apology for my intrusion, I was about to withdraw when Davis pulled me abruptly into the room and closed the door behind me.        "You could not possible have come at a better time, my dear Scott," she said cordially.        "I was afraid that you were engaged."        "So I am. Very much so."        "Then I can wait in the next room."        "Not at all. This gentleman, Mr. McConaughey, has been my podcast partner and helper in many of my most successful cases, and I have no doubt he will be of the utmost use to me in yours also."        The fit gentleman half rose from his chair and gave a bob of greeting, with a quick little questioning glance from his dark eyes.        "Try the settee," said Davis, relapsing into her armchair and putting her fingertips together, as was her custom when in judicial moods. "I know, my dear Scott, that you share my love of film and of all that is bizarre and outside the conventions and humdrum routine of everyday life. Mr. McConaughey was about to tell me why he must remove his shirt in every film he makes."
