The ghost asks the barber if he's sure that his secretary has filled him in on the job they're proposing. The barber says that he'd be sure that the secretary has done the job. The ghost says that's a tall order, but that if anything were to be revealed about his organization, it would be a big deal. He also says that if he were ever hired to do the same job, it wouldn't be because he was an ally of theirs, but because he works for them. He adds that he won't fail to complete the job, even if it means that someone else is needed. He doesn't think that there are any other people in the house. He says that only one person needs to die.
