In a Boston to New York night train, Jack Barnes a sharp New York detective contemplates a recent big arrest while two strangers nearby discuss the cleverness and flaws of his methods. The two men debate whether Barnes tracks criminals through artistic flair or relentless brainpower, hinting at a forthcoming confrontation.
