Two men get on the train - Oaksey, known to Fletch, and the more military type, Tanner. The pair have robbed a jewellers and think they can persuade Fletch to mind the bag, so if they are arrested (as they were) there will be no evidence. However, a misunderstanding leaves Mackay believing the bag is temporarily his, having agreed with Tanner to take it to an address in London as part of his new "job." Therefore the on-train detective ignores it during his search, once Mackay has assured him it's nothing to do with Fletch. Eventually Fletch & Mackay shake hands and leave the bag to be discovered by cleaners. Written by don @ minifie-1 See less
