There is one such conversation. Nancy talks to Eula Denning, who is suspected of murdering Kate Lambert. The conversation does mention men (in particular Nancy's father, an attorney, and also a man who stole a vital piece of evidence), it also mentions Nancy wanting to win a journalism prize, Eula's innocence, the strong evidence against Eula, and the piece of evidence in question. Ted Nickerson is there too, and he is part of the conversation, but it is mostly between Nancy and Eula. Ted is mostly there as a photographer.
