Crimes of the Heart; Goaded into it by Paul, Hayashi has a social encounter as disastrous in its own way as Diana Reid's recent ones have been for her; Meanwhile, an old and similarly socially prominent friend of Paul is worried that his sister's betrothed, an Austrian count she met rather recently, is only after her money; Reid Communications sources discover that he has twice been widowed by young wealthy women, but he has told the current woman of these events, and she accepts the official verdicts of no foul play (the second reached with no knowledge of the earlier incident) and his claims of innocence; The brother disappears, prompting Paul to visit the count, who suggests--and she accepts--that he has purposely gone into hiding as "a ploy to disrupt our happiness"; The Green Hornet takes HIS turn, arriving just in time to overhear the count explaining to his large "butler" that Paul's interest and "connections with the media" make disposing of either the nosy brother or the bride herself quite problematical.
