Max was waiting for Ausable to steal the important paper from him. As Fowler observed, apart from the pointed gun, he didn\u2019t look very menacing. Even this proved useless for him as Ausable outwitted him with his presence of mind and intelligence. Ausable cleverly found out how Max had entered the room and created an extremely believable story about a non-existent balcony.
