  1. 1. (c) Robert Arthur — It is by Robert Arthur.
  2. 2. (d) secret agent — He is a secret agent.
  3. 3. (a) fat and unimpressive — Ausable is not the glamorous spy Fowler expected.
  4. 4. (b) secret report — He demands a secret report.
  5. 5. An unglamorous but clever secret agent.
  6. 6. He invents a non-existent balcony and pretends the police are at the door.
  7. 7. Ausable outwits his rival Max entirely through presence of mind and a cleverly told lie, without ever using force. Returning to his hotel room, Ausable and the writer Fowler find Max waiting with a pistol, demanding a secret report. Instead of panicking, Ausable remains calm and casually complains about a balcony outside his window, claiming that intruders have used it before and that he will report the matter to the hotel management. This makes Max believe such a balcony exists. When a knock comes at the door, Ausable coolly announces that it must be the police he had earlier summoned. The frightened Max, eager to avoid capture, decides to slip out of the window onto the balcony to wait — but there is no balcony at all, and he falls to the ground. The knock, in fact, was only a waiter delivering drinks. Through sheer quick thinking, Ausable removes the threat and recovers control of the situation.
