Also Bouc saying, "'... Show me how the impossible can be possible!'" and Poirot responding with, "'It is a good phrase, that ... [t]he impossible cannot have happened, therefore the impossible must be possible in spite of appearances[,]'" made me giddy because one of the most famous Sherlock Holmes quotes is, "Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth." And when I tell you Sherry would be clenching her fists, gritting her teeth, and grumbling about how Poirot's "copying" her ... there's just so much potential for a rivalry, and I love it.
