En mann mistenker kona for utroskap, derfor hyret han inn den berømte kinesiske detektiven Chen Lee til å holde øye med henne mens han er bortreist. Etter noen dager mottok han følgende rapport:

"Most honorable Sir,

You leave house. I watch house. He come to house. I watch.
He and she leave house. I follow. He and she go in hotel.
I climb tree. I look in window. He kiss she. She kiss he.
He strip she. She strip he. He play with she. She play with he.
I play with me. I fall off tree. I not see.

No fee.

Chen Lee"
