The stolen diadem

In a flashback on a locomotive, twelve years before the present, Brennan shows a snarling jackal tuck a stolen diadem into his coat MM E1·01:43:53. He says this is the man Daisy has been following and that she has just found her mark MM E1·01:43:53.

In MM_02 the flashback continues: Daisy's mark is the jackal, and the diadem is the only thing she is on the train to get MM E2·00:06:15 MM E2·00:08:47. Sylvester, who is on the train, watches a very slick raccoon palm the diadem as the jackal gets up to go back into his car MM E2·00:07:47 MM E2·00:08:01. Daisy licks the dirt off it and stows it in her purse MM E2·00:08:47.

Later Daisy finds the diadem missing, sniffs it out in another compartment and picks the lock MM E2·00:09:30 MM E2·00:10:06 MM E2·00:10:40. Inside, Sylvester asks "Does this belong to you?" and says it looks like the Chase diadem, belonging to the Chase family of New York City MM E2·00:11:30 MM E2·00:11:37. Daisy claims to be Virginia Chase, heiress to the Chase fortune, saying her slobber is all over the diadem MM E2·00:12:10. Brennan rules that Virginia Chase is a real person who hired Sylvester about a week and a half earlier MM E2·00:13:04. Sylvester then says "Why Virginia! My goodness, that's my mistake, please have a seat." MM E2·00:14:04.
