Question about a minor detail


My friend and I weren't sure how that one critic's severed head got from the bedroom where his wife and maid saw it to the milk bottles on Devlin's front doorstep. Are we to assume that Price went back and stole the head while the wife and maid were running around hysterically? I was wondering if the filmmakers originally intended to have a headless body in the bed but then decided to put the head there and didn't think about how it might then turn up across town.

I think it's possible that Mr. Price and Ms. Rigg could have reused the costumes from the 1st murder and been part of the police forces that removed the body from the house. Who would bat an eye at someone official taking charge of either the whole body or the head after all?
