PROTAGONIST JOHN ROBIE'S DILEMMA: Everybody thinks he is behind the new wave of jewelry robberies around French Riviera but he cannot convince people otherwise because he had been a notorious burglar himself in the past.

PROTAGONIST'S DESIRE: To prove his innocence and catch the real cat burglar.

HIS CHIEF OBSTACLE: He had been a famous jewelry burgler in the past.

ESTABLISHING SHOT: The store window of a travel agency with a model cruise ship and tourism posters of France and Nice.

INCITING INCIDENT: An apartment overlooking the famous seaside drive in Nice, France. A woman wakes up screaming that her jewelry is stolen.

PLOT POINT 1: Robie convinces the Lloyd's insurance agent H. H. Hughson to give him a list of the richest mansions in Nice in order to set up a trap for the real burglar and catch him in the act of stealing jewelry.

MID POINT EVENT: Frances makes it very clear that she knows John Robie is not the lumber merchant from Ore gon that he pretends to be. She knows Robie is a famous jewelry thief and she wants to be his partner in crime, although Robie vociferously denies his identity.
