Mmmmmm
So the end conversation must have gone something like this...
Policeman _ So sir, what happened to your fiancee?
Guy Pearce - Oh she was taken by some little fairies though a hole in the cellar and down into a bottomless pit
Policeman - Oh OK..that seems fine then...we won't bother digging up the cellar to look for her or arresting you on suspicion of killing her because you made up a ridiculous story about fairies..we'll just block up the hole and leave the house empty for the next poor unsuspecting suckers who but it !...bye then have a nice day
Guy Pearce - yes thankyou officer
