Marlowe is on a mission to figure out that Geiger has going on at his bookstore. He visits the store where he sees a suspicious man and pursues him on his way out of the store. The man drops the book he had been concealing and Marlowe later reveals the book was pornographic which revealed the other business of the bookstore, Geiger is running a secondary business of renting/lending porn from the back room.
Marlowe is able to get more information about Geiger from another woman from a different bookstore nearby. The woman is able to give Marlow a description of Geiger which Marlow is able to use to recognize a man who he believes to be Geiger and begins following him. Marlow follows him to a house. A woman arrives. Marlowe runs her plates and finds the car belongs to Carmen (the General's daughter). It grows late as Marlowe is still staked outside when he hears gun shots and screams. He climbs through a window into the house to find Carmen sitting (naked) in a chair, seemingly drugged and Geiger shot dead .
