After the robbery at the London Silver Vaults in 2066, an inspector visited Creighton-Ward Manor with a sergeant to inquire about the location of Parker, a known former criminal.
When the duo arrived at the Manor, they were directed by Lil to the garden, where Lady Penelope Creighton-Ward was relaxing. The sergeant asked about Parker's whereabouts while the inspector elaborated that this was in connection with the robbery at the Silver Vaults, also noting that Parker was the only man he knew who could have cracked the safes. Parker then arrived, having finished some shopping in London, and was arrested by the inspector and taken to the police station. Parker was interrogated to no avail for two hours, after which the sergeant reminded the inspector they had little to go on. Changing tactics, the inspector told Parker about the details of the theft and the two million pounds worth of stolen silver. After this explanation, Lady Penelope questioned their conclusions and Parker revealed his underworld mates had heard someone was pulling off robberies to hire an army and rule the world. With Penelope observing that the two police officers obviously had no good case against Parker, the inspector reluctantly released him, albeit with the assurance that he would be keeping his eyes on him. Lady Penelope and Parker subsequently investigated the robbery and discovered that it had been orchestrated by Mr Steelman. (COMIC: The Great Silver Robbery!)
