Corrected entry: Peter Lyman's secretary thought he had poisoned her because she was finding out that he was the Tarot Murderer. He wasn't, and hadn't yet committed his only murder. So she could have been wrong about having been poisoned, but what could she possibly have found out about him, if he wasn't the murderer at all?

Directed by: Woody Allen
Starring: Scarlett Johansson, Hugh Jackman, Christopher Fulford, Geoff Bell, Robert Bathurst, Jim Dunk
Continuity mistake: At the garden party, when Scarlett Johansson is sitting on the bench and talking, her hair is alternately tucked in and then on the outside of the sideframe of her glasses.
Sondra Pransky: He asked me to go dancing with him.
Sid Waterman: That's perfect strategy. You worm your way in like a rodent or a roach, and as the crumbs fall off the table, you collect them and we analyze them.

Correction: The secretary read in the papers that a rare cuff link was found at the scene of a murdered prostitute. She phoned someone, telling them this AND that her boss Peter Lyman happened to be missing that exact cuff link. Peter was listening in on this phone conversation. Peter had visited this prostitute and he didn't want THAT information leaking out. Therefore he DID poison the secretary to prevent that.
