What's really going on
The scene turns the film's mystery inside out. Calloway has no interest in Anna's forged papers — 'I'm not interested in your forged papers' — because the real question is where Harry is. He reveals that the body in the grave was Harbin and that Lime is alive, then works on her with a small offer of help. Anna's response is not relief but a kind of mercy: 'I wish he was dead,' she says, because then he would be safe from the police. Meanwhile Martins, who has just seen the 'dead man walking,' goes to Kurtz and turns the same shock into theatre, insisting he has seen a ghost and asking whether ghosts only rise at night. The chapter ends with both stories pointed at the same missing man.

このシーンについての質問
Why does Calloway question Anna?
Because the police know Lime is alive and believe Anna may know where he is hiding. They hope she will trade information for help with her forged papers.
Why was Harbin's body in Lime's coffin?
Because Lime faked his death. Harbin was buried under Lime's name so that Lime could disappear, which is why the police say another man was buried in his place.
Why does Anna say she wishes Harry were dead?
Because then he would be safe from the police and no longer hunted. The wish is not cruelty but a kind of protection for a man she still loves.
What does 'a dead man walking' mean?
It means someone who is alive but expected to die, or in this case a man thought dead who has appeared alive. Martins uses it after seeing Harry apparently risen.
Why does Martins go to Kurtz?
Because he wants to reach Harry. After seeing the supposedly dead man, he tells Kurtz he has seen a ghost and demands that Harry come to meet him.
