Charming Wilmer. The boy has such style.
“The boy drew his right foot far back and kicked Spade’s temple. The kick rolled Spade over on his side. Once more he tried to get up, could not, and went to sleep.”

I know Sam Spade is supposed to be this hardboiled detective but him giving the guy his gun back and being surprised that the guy once again points it at him with the intent to shoot is giving Dr. Doofenshmirtz versus Perry the Platypus
