Ted Bundy (2002) - full transcript

Docu-drama based on the life of Ted Bundy, a serial killer who killed at least 19 young women during the 1970's (though some sources say as many as 30 to 35 were murdered). Set from his college student years, to his first victims, his capture, escape from prison (twice), his final killing spree to his trial, conviction and execution.

(music)

Hi there.

Hi there, my name's Ted.

Nice to meet ya.

Hi there.

My name's Ted.

Nice to meet you.

Hi there.

My name's Ted.

Nice to meet ya.



Now the sociopath

represents a different set

of problems for the mental

health worker.

For the sociopath does not

suffer from the sort of

repressed impulses that the

neurotic patient needs to

examine and to recognize.

He will lie, he will cheat,

even kill to attain

his ends.

And not even the prospect of

swift and sure punishment



will deter him from his path

to gratification.

Four beers, please.

Want to dance?

Oh, I just got here.

But thanks anyway.

Come on.

Dance with me.

I won't bite, I promise.

You won't regret it.

are you a student?

Uh, huh.

Me too.

Groovy

Urn, thanks.

Sure.

I am so drunk I

am hallucinating.

Aw, hell.

You again?

Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!

Shit! Fuck! Fuck!

(screaming)

(laughing)

This better be

good, Ted.

I just needed to hear

your voice.

It's four in the morning.

I know, Lee.

I've been hitting the books

so hard I lost track

of time.

I haven't heard from you

in nearly a week.

I've been

studying. Lee.

I'm sorry.

Yes, I know you've

been studying.

But, uh, God, I just ... I

hate the way you make me

feel sometimes.

I need to see you.

You only want to see me

when it's convenient

for you.

Why can't you just

be honest?

You don't really love me.

Not really.

If you did, you would call.

Lee, I just ... I just

need to hold you.

Then why don't you come

over right now?

I'll make you something

to eat.

How 'bout tomorrow, Lee?

I'm really tired.

First tell me what I

need to hear.

I love you, Lee.

And I haven't been seeing

anyone else.

Now get some sleep, okay?

You can't hide from

me, Ted.

Ted!

Hey cutie pie.

How are ya?

Whoa.

Oh. No.

No

Look, mommy, it's almost

in outer space.

It sure is, hon.

Hmm...

Make it come back

Well, I can't do that.

Did you ever hear the story

about the little girl who

was holding a balloon and a

gust of wind came along and

carried her away?

That never happened.

You're just being silly.

Yes, it did.

No, I'm not being silly.

Aargh, aargh.

Oh, ho, ho!

Show you silly.

I gotcha.

I gotcha.

I gotcha.

Be careful.

If I had one-tenth her

energy, school would be

a breeze.

She's just showing off

for you.

Yeah.

I seem to have that effect

on women.

Oh, no, she - she really

adores you, Ted.

So do i.

And I adore you, Lee.

So, one day maybe I

won't have to share you with

so many women

You're so stupid

Yeah.

I may be stupid, but not so

stupid to think you don't

have plenty of

other admirers.

Yeah, Lee.

I have admirers, but just

because someone admires me

doesn't mean I'm sleeping

with them.

Look, look, I don't want

to start an argument, okay?

I was just hoping we could

commit to each other.

Like really commit, Ted.

We are committed.

And I love you, so can we

just focus on that?

Really?

Yeah. Really.

Urn. Urn.

What's that?

What?

What's that?

Did you steal this, Ted?

(laughs) No.

Ted!

Well, it's not like it's the

first time it's ever

happened, huh?

Just - just keep your

voice down, okay?

Why, you afraid somebody

might find out the wonderful

Ted Bundy's a thief?

You tell anyone that, I

will break your fucking

neck, you hear me?

No. Take

it back!

Give it to one of your

other girls!

I didn't steal the watch, Lee!

Look.

Listen to me.

You have a future.

And you've worked so hard.

What do you think is going

to happen to that future if

you get caught

stealing, huh?

Yeah, right.

Why do you talk

like this?

It's easy, because first I

flunked out of law school

and now I'm flunking

psychology.

Ted, why didn't you

tell me?

I don't know, I just..

Look, there's still two

months left in the semester

and I can still help you.

But if you just

give up. Ted...

Look, I didn't steal

the watch.

I just wanted to get

something nice for my gal.

Show my appreciation.

After all you've done for

me, all the money you've

given me to stay in school,

I figured it was the least I

could do.

It's a beautiful

watch, Ted.

Thank you.

I'm sorry I ever

doubted you.

Is it good?

Yes.

Is it good?

Yeah.

Let's try something else.

What?

Come on.

Flip over.

No! No,

you know I don't

like that.

It's disgusting.

Lee, it's just another way

to make love.

No, it has nothing to do

with love.

It's just, it's dirty.

Lee, sex is only dirty

when you do it right.

Let's just do

it regular.

Okay. Fine.

We'll do it regular.

Okay? 'cause

that's what feels

like love,

right? Yeah?

Yeah.

That feel like love?

Yeah? Good.

How 'bout that?

Ted!

Does that feel like

love? Huh?

Does that feel like love?

Ted!

What about this?

Does that feel like love?

Oh, you're choking me!

That's what love feels

like to me, Lee!

No! Ted!

What, are you nuts?

I gotta go.

No.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

It's fine, Lee.

It's fine.

Am I going to see

you tomorrow?

Yeah.

I'm at the crisis center

from eleven to three.

I'll call you when I'm done.

I-I remember it was my

birthday that day and

afterwards, when all the

kids went home, he, urn,

came up into my room and

made me put it in my mouth.

He put it in your mouth?

Yeah. I didn't

want him to be all

mad again.

I wanted to make him happy.

Did you tell anyone?

Yeah, my mother.

She didn't believe me.

And if she did, she just

looked the other way.

You must have a lot of

anger towards her.

I don't know.

She's dead now.

You still there, Ted?

Mh-hm, I'm still here.

Well, uh, tell me

one thing.

Why are men such assholes?

Well, I think you just

haven't met the right guy.

You sound like one of

those right kind of guys.

Thank you, Karen.

Look, Karen, one day you'll

find a love that's deeper

and more meaningful than

anything you've ever

imagined.

God. Do you

really think so, Ted?

I know so.

Do you think we could

talk again.

Ted? I gotta

go to work now.

Uh-huh.

Anytime, okay?

Okay.

Take care, Karen.

All right.

And don't do

anything crazy.

All right.

(doorbell rings)

Where have you

been? Huh?

You said you were going to

call and you didn't.

Ted? Ted.

Oh, my God!

Are you okay?

What's wrong?

Are you sick?

Actually, I'm really hungry

You really were

hungry, huh?

Yep.

Whatcha thinkin' about?

The future.

How I want things to

turn out.

How do you want things

to turn out?

Well, I guess we could

start with the basic premise

that whoever dies with the

most toys, wins.

Okay.

You want a lot of toys.

What else?

Good job.

Nice clothes.

New car.

All the things I didn't have

growing up.

Maybe go into politics.

I still haven't given up

on that.

Mm-hm.

But mostly, I just want

to be normal.

What?

You don't think you're

normal?

I'm trying to be.

Oh, Ted...

I'm really trying to be

Don't make a

sound. Understand?

(whines)

Yes? Okay,

now get up.

Get up.

What do you want?

Shut up and listen.

Cooperate and everything's

going to be okay.

Otherwise, I'm going to

kill you.

Okay.

Do you believe me?

Yeah.

Good. Now, I

just broke into your

apartment. Why

do you want to

believe me?

(music)

A drink?

Oh, yeah.

Whoa.

Nice TV.

Yeah, it's a gift from

my parents.

They're cool, huh?

Yeah.

So when do I get to meet

your folks?

Mmm ... They look like

nice people.

They are nice people.

So what's the problem?

Who said there was

a problem?

What, do

I embarrass

you? Huh?

You're the most paranoid

woman I ever met.

No, well, you've met

my parents.

Yeah, and someday you'll

meet mine.

Someday?

Don't start,

Lee. Jesus.

No, it's just, if

there's a problem, I want to

know about it.

Yes, there's a problem.

But just because there's a

problem doesn't mean that

you're the center of it.

Come on, please, just

tell me.

I don't want there to be any

secrets between

us. Please?

I'm illegitimate.

That's it?

I'm a bastard.

Ooh.

That's an ugly word and it

should be removed from the

english language.

Maybe so, but it's

still true.

Stop saying that.

Don't ever, ever, ever

say that.

Imagine being five years

old and finding out that

your sister is really

your mother.

Okay, and that would be

a little weird.

Yeah, and then being

seventeen and finding out

that your father's not

your father.

Well, they still loved

you, didn't they?

Yes, they loved me.

Of course they loved me.

Yeah.

Who could not love you?

Ah, damn.

Aah.

Whenever I see anybody

carrying that many books,

they're studying to be

a doctor.

Yeah, well, in this case,

it's law school.

Well, those aren't

law books.

No, these are for

everything else.

Is there any chance I can

get you to help me carry

these to my car?

I'm basically helpless with

this cast.

Well, okay.

But if I need any legal

advice, you owe me one

Its a deal.

It's, uh, over here.

Okay.

I hope this isn't going to

make you late for class.

No, I'm fine.

If you could just, uh, put

them on the floor

right there.

Okay.

The killer came in from

the night...

Just what this town

needs, a psycho killer

running around.

Well, don't look at me.

I didn't do it.

I think we can rule you

out as a suspect, Ted.

I can't wait to see what

the son-of-a-bitch

looks like.

You really think it's just

one guy responsible?

You know, what the police

say and what they think are

often two completely

different things.

That's what I think.

I think that they hold a lot

of stuff back so that

there's stuff only the

perpetrator knows.

Do you think those women

could still be alive?

No way.

They're way dead.

Ted, this is a party.

No one wants to talk about

this.

Oh, really, Lee?

What subjects can we

talk about?

Actually, uh, I think

it's fascinating.

Well, I think its sick

and disgusting.

Well, certainly murder is

aberrant behavior, but, I

mean, the psychology that

motivates it is really quite

interesting, don't

you think?

Totally.

I think I need a

refill.

I'm, so sorry.

I'm Betty.

Hi Betty.

I'm Ted.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, too.

Lee, right?

That's me.

I'm Beverly from the

crisis center.

You know, I-I work with Ted

at the crisis center.

Oh, great. Hi.

Oh, he is doing

really great.

I- he has an amazing knack

with the callers.

He always knows the exact

right thing to say.

Yep, he sure has a way

with people, all right.

Oh, my God!

Please don't hurt me.

I'm not going to hurt you.

What do you want?

I just want you to listen

to me.

Pay me a little bit

of attention.

See, girls like you, they

don't pay attention to guys

like me.

Guys who don't came from

good families.

Who don't go to top schools,

or drive fancy cars.

(whimpers)

Shut up and

listen! God!

Don't get me wrong.

I'm not some share the

wealth' type of pinko creep

or something.

Don't do this to me.

In fact, I'm a republican.

I worked on a number of

campaigns, and one day, I'm

gonna be governor.

You don't even believe me,

do you?

You probably just think I'm

some kind of loser.

Well, maybe you're right.

Maybe I'm not so important

out there, but here, I'm

in charge.

Here, I'm in control.

Because this is the court

of Ted!

What I say here is law!

You get the

picture?

(screams)

(screams)

(cries)

Do I have your

attention now?

And Julie's staying with

your parents for how long?

All month.

I was kind of hoping maybe

we could spend some time

together alone before you

went off, back to

law school.

I told you a thousand

times, you can come with me

if you want to.

Your enthusiasm isn't

exactly overwhelming, Ted.

Hey, you gotta make your

own decision.

I mean, if things don't work

out, I don't want it to be

my fault.

I don't want to

argue, okay?

I am just saying, we both

know the reason why I am not

going with you to salt lake.

Mm-hm.

And what is it?

You don't want me to go.

Oh. You know,

you're giving me

a headache.

Is she going with you?

Is who going with me

That woman at the party.

The one you were talking to

that thought murderers were

'oh so fascinating'

You're certifiable, you

know that?

You're a hundred

percent certifiable.

That's right, Ted, just

dismiss it.

Treat me like I'm crazy.

Anybody with the audacity to

disagree with the great Ted

Bundy has to be

crazy, right?

What the hell?

Asshole!

You're such a fucking jerk.

Look, I don't know why

you're so upset.

It was a joke.

Where are my keys?

Don't ask me.

What the hell are these?

I dunno.

I've never seen them before.

Who's a pretty girl?

You are.

You're the pretty girl.

Yeah, you are.

(knock on door)

Who is it?

It's me

Just a minute.

Look, I don't want

to fight.

I just want us to enjoy our

time together before you

have to leave.

Now is that so much to ask?

No. Nothing

would make me

happier.

Mm, what's that

smell? Whew.

I left a bologna sandwich

out on the kitchen counter.

Well, it stinks.

Mm-hm.

Sorry.

Oh, God, I love

kissing you.

Hmm, me, too.

What?

What?

I have an idea.

Oh, no.

What has that little brain

of yours come up with

this time?

It's just something I

want to try.

What?

Have you ever heard of a

thing called 'submission'?

Well, I thought that's

what I was doing every time

I opened my legs.

Is that what it feels

like to you?

Sometimes.

But did you ever think

there might be a little bit

more to sex than just

opening your legs?

I just want to make love.

So, hmm, what could be

more loving than having me

take total control?

Okay.

Just make sure it

doesn't hurt.

It's not going to hurt.

And it doesn't make me

feel degraded, either.

Will you stop worrying?

Oh, God, Ted, I just want

to make you happy.

Goddamnit!

I hope you're having fun,

'cause I'm not.

All right.

All right.

All right, don't talk.

Don't move.

Don't even breathe.

What?

What, you can't

pretend that you are dead?

You serious?

Yes, I'm serious!

Just give it a

fucking try, okay?

Okay! I love

you, Ted, and if

that's what you want-

I want it.

Do it.

Okay, open your eyes.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Fuck ... You ... Bitch!

Fuck ... You ... Bitch!

Aah ... Aah ... Aah ...

... Aah ... Aaah ...

Hi. Excuse me.

I'm uh, sorry to bother you,

but, uh, I was wondering if

you could help me out.

Help you out with what?

Uh, with my sailboat I

hate asking, but, uh, I

basically can't do anything

with this cast.

I'll take you for a ride in

it, if you'd like.

Please? Pretty please?

Okay. Okay.

Just don't beg.

Sure. It's,

uh, right over

this way.

I'm Ted.

What's your name?

Shawn.

Hi, shawn.

H-hey!

I thought you needed help

unloading your sailboat.

Yeah, it's at my folk's

place just up the hill.

Didn't I mention that?

No.

Well, is that a problem?

Mm, I guess not.

Great. Hop in.

Don't touch me!

You know what?

I hope you're not going to

act like this all day

If you don't start with

me, I'll be fine.

I, uh, are you on the

rag or something?

Shut up!

Goddamn lemmings.

Look at them all.

They fester like a bunch

of rats.

If they're all rats and

lemmings, then what does

that make us?

I like how you make me do

all the work.

Hey, I brought the

cooler down.

Whatever.

Where is everybody?

They could be anywhere.

Well, shouldn't we go

look far them?

Right now, I just want

to drink my beer.

Fine.

Wh-whoa, where do you

think you're going?

I gotta pee.

Is that okay, your lordship?

Jesus.

Excuse me.

Uh, I'm sorry to bother you,

but is there any chance you

could help me out with

something?

Help you out with what?

Well, with my sailboat.

Urn, see, I'm having

trouble, uh, unloading it

with this stupid cast here,

and I'd really appreciate it

if you'd give me a hand.

(screaming)

Okay, that was a

mistake, bitch.

I'll be right back, kitten.

(screaming)

Hi, again.

(screaming)

Get off!

(screaming)

Are you ready for some

fun, kitten?

Give me that.

Thank you, munchkin.

Well, guess this is it.

Won't be seeing you for a

while, little one.

I don't want you to go.

When you're here, it's like

we're a family.

Yeah, but I gotta go to

college so I can become a

lawyer and buy lots of nice

things for you and mommy.

Will you still come

see us?

Mm-hm.

And you can come visit

me, too.

In Utah?

You got it.

You be good, okay, munchkin?

All right.

This is it.

Call me, okay?

As soon as I get settled.

See you in the funny papers.

We just found a

third body.

What kind of shape's

this one in?

They're all skeletonized.

Nothing good.

Seven heads and

three bodies.

Jesus!

Thanks for the ride.

I really appreciate it.

Sure.

Where're you headed?

Silver canyon.

How 'bout you?

Me, too are you from

around here?

No. Holy shit.

Look at that.

(screams)

Fuck ... You!

Fuck ... You!

Fuck...

Fuck ... You ... Bitch

fuck ... Fuck fuck ... Fuck

Excuse me, ma'am.

Ma'am. I'm

Officer Roseland with

the Murray police department.

I'm sorry to bother you, but

it looks like somebody's

broken into your car.

What?

Yeah, I'm sorry, ma'am,

you're going to have to come

with me.

Do you have any

identification?

I mean...

Ma'am.

I mean, how did you know

it was my car?

Well, what kind of a car

do you drive?

Green imperial.

I'm sorry, but that's

the one.

Fuck!

Mom's gonna kill me if

anything happened to that.

It's still locked.

It hasn't even been touched.

I'm afraid I'm going to

have to ask you to file a

report, ma'am.

But there is nothing to

report. Its fine.

Our sub-station's just

around the corner here.

This is so stupid!

You have, like, the wrong

car or something!

Its for your own

protection, ma'am.

Your station's back here?

Oh, it's a

substation, ma'am.

It's really just an office.

Our headquarters is a few

blocks from here.

Well, I hope it smells

better than this.

I assure you, ma'am,

it does.

We're just to the

right, here.

Damn, it's locked.

My partner must have already

taken the guy in.

What guy?

The one who broke into

your car.

But nobody broke into my

car, so

Sorry, ma'am, I'm going to

have to ask you to accompany

me to the station.

In this?

Its the dumbest looking cop

car I've ever seen.

It's a civilian car,

ma'am. Department

budget only goes

so far.

Oh, great.

The police station's not

over this way.

What the fuck are you

doing? Fuck!

What the fuck are you doing?

What the fuck are you doing?

You son-of-a-bitch!

Kill you ... The fuck ...

Oh, fuck. Fuck.

I'm gonna fuckin'

kill you!

Don't fucking move or I

will blow your head off!

You hear me?

Yes.

Are you gonna be a good

little girl?

Yes.

Huh?

Yes!

Fuck.

Jesus.

Fucker!

Uuhh!

Fuck.

God!

Stupid, stupid, stupid!

Ted, don't mess around!

Ted, hit her in the head!

Bye.

See ya later.

Hey.

Oh, my God!

You scared me to death.

Here, let me get that

for you.

Oh, thank you.

That's so sweet.

Don't mention it.

Wow, you're just a kid,

aren't you?

No, I'm actually

almost eighteen.

I didn't mean to insult

you, it's just ... No,

forget it.

Wait.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to sound like

such a bitch.

I just, you know, I don't

like when people say I'm

like some kind of baby or

anything.

That's okay, kid.

Forget it.

Boy, you're batting a

thousand, aren't you?

Look, I'm sorry.

Don't mean to be a jerk.

It's just that when I first

saw you, I got kinda

turned on.

But now that I can see how

young you are no offense

intended there either, but

well, let's just say that

I'm too old for you and

leave it at that.

Well, you may be too old

for me, but that still

doesn't make me a kid.

Good point.

Another one?

All right.

Oh, boy, look at this!

Oh, is it a boy or girl?

It's a girl.

We know.

You must have been a

really good girl for Santa

to bring you all

these presents.

Uh-huh, I was.

Okay, well, let's see

what's next.

Why don't you try this one?

Oh, my gosh!

We know.

Just what you needed!

Thank you!

You're welcome.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Jesus mister. What is

it, your heart or

something?

(siren)

Hey, I'm sorry, officer-

You stop right there

I didn't see you back-

Now!

Put your hands above

your head!

Okay.

No problem.

Turn around!

Put your hands on your head.

All right.

Okay. You don't

need to explain

the law to me.

I-I go to law school.

Yeah we checked that

out, and you sure do.

And I worked on the

"Thompson for governor"

campaign. You

can ask him about me.

A law student active

in politics.

But what's a groovy guy like

you driving around with a

rape kit in his car?

Look, I told you, it's not

a rape kit.

I can explain to you every

single thing you found

in there.

I don't know, Ted.

A nylon stocking mask with

eye slits, a hacksaw, a

crowbar with duct tape

around the handle, a knife,

a rope, handcuffs.

Lock-picking tools?

So far you haven't

explained anything.

I think I've explained

things pretty well.

Well, let me ask you

something else, okay, Ted?

Look, it's your show.

Dig it.

Knock yourself out.

Great.

So, urn, you ever hear of a

girl named Tina Gabler?

No.

Well, that's funny.

She saw your picture and she

insists that you're the guy

that tried to kidnap her

from the mall the couple of

months ago.

Well, she's wrong.

Well, you wouldn't mind

standing in a lineup then,

would you?

You're wasting your time,

but if it'll make you happy,

go ahead.

Look, why don't we get

back to that stuff later?

I'm going to read you a list

of names and see if any of

them ring a bell, okay?

Look-

Just shut up.

Okay, Ted, listen.

Barbara Vincennes, Karen

Stills, Suzanne Welch,

Karen Parks?

Brenda Ball?

Patricia Garber?

Miriam Cutler?

Shawn Randall?

Lucy Lee?

Melissa Smith?

Wendy Fit?

Anita Mintier?

Stephanie Merkson?

Ellen Carter?

Betsy Walter?

Lynn Adams?

You never heard of any of

these women?

Look, I don't like the

tone of your voice.

This interview's over.

My dearest Lee.

I feel my heart is going to

break as I write

this letter.

Here I sit in a cage like

some kind of animal.

So much for the humanity

of mankind.

The so-called authorities

are continuing to persecute

me, even though their case

is a total joke.

They act like I'm supposed

to be remorseful, even

though I've done nothing to

feel remorseful for.

Maybe its all for the better

'cause it makes me

appreciate our love all

the more.

For even if I'm locked in a

cage, I think of the love

that we have and I am able

to be free, if only for

a moment.

I know I haven't always

treated you the way you

deserve, but I'm only a man

and sometimes it's just

so hard.

But all that melts in the

face of the love as strong

as the love I feel for you.

Ever lovin', Ted.

(sobs.)

I want to talk to

you about something.

Sure.

Please don't think that

I'm trying to add to your

problems here okay?

I mean, I know you've got a

lot on your mind lately.

Okay?

Okay?

And-and the years that we've

been together, I have been

completely faithful to you,

an honor that I know you

haven't always reciprocated.

Even here in prison, I've

been willing to give you the

benefit of the doubt.

But when I hear on TV that

you've got some girlfriend

coming visiting you, that's

when I have to ask myself

what am I doing here?

Is that what this

is about?

Look, Lee, that woman is

working for me.

She's trying to get me

outta here.

I'm in prison, for

Christ's sake.

I can't control what they

say on TV.

Lee, honey-

No!

No more 'Lee, honey'!

Now you tell me right now,

is that woman your

girlfriend?

No. You're

my girlfriend, Lee.

Now there's something I need

to tell you.

Okay.

I'm being charged again.

What?

For some girl's murder.

Some girl?

Yeah, but their case is

totally weak.

They will never get a

conviction.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. No.

Lee...

Lee!

Get me outta here.

Lee.

Theodore Robert Bundy

was taken from his cell in

Colorado state prison and

brought to Aspen, where he

will stand trial for the

murder of Terry Bell whom

authorities claim was

abducted from the Pinewood

ski resort last Christmas.

All right, Ted, las get

these chains off you buddy.

All right, Randy. Thanks.

You seem kind of excited

this morning.

Cooking up something for

your defense, huh?

Yeah, I got a few ideas.

Lets get the legs off

real quick.

Hey, Randy.

Yeah, Ted, what's

goin' on?

Why do women wear makeup

and use perfume?

I don't know.

Why, Ted?

Because they're ugly and

they stink.

For your sake, I sure

hope you've thought this

through.

You know the old saying:

An attorney that represents

himself has a fool for

a client

Yeah, that's what

I've heard.

Thanks, man.

Good luck now buddy.

Thank you

Hey, Ted.

I'm gonna have a smoke in

the hall, okay?

Okay.

Bastard!

Bundy's loose!

I repeat, Bundy's loose!

Bundy's loose!

Bundy jumped out of this

second story window at the

front of the Pitkin County

courthouse this morning.

Witnesses say he left in

a hurry.

However, nobody saw him open

the window.

And he escaped clean

in an unknown direction

(screams)

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

This is so terrible!

It's okay.

Oh, God.

How could I do it?

You didn't know.

How could I have ever

touched him?

Ssh.

It's okay.

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Hi, Ted.

Welcome back.

Ooh.

Oh, God.

Oh, Ted.

If I didn't have this

visit to look forward to, I

think I'd go insane.

I-I tried to come last

week, but you know, with

Christmas and all, I just

couldn't find the time.

No, it's okay.

Did you get the money

I sent?

yeah. Thanks.

I'm going to pay you back.

I know you will.

Just as soon as we get you

out of this place.

Yeah.

We'll see. They

want to kill me.

What are you

talking about?

Who wants to kill you?

They're moving my trial to

Colorado Springs.

I don't understand

They're asking for the

death penalty.

They don't think they've got

justice unless they

kill somebody.

But their case is

so weak.

They framed me once, they

can frame me again

Okay, Bundy, wrap it up.

Okay.

Look, I'm sorry.

I haven't seen you in two

weeks, and here I am talking

about myself.

How are you?

How was Christmas

Oh, it was good.

I liked seeing my parents.

What they must think

of me.

Don't worry about it.

I'm here and I love

you, buddy.

And soon ... Very soon we're

going to be together, okay?

Yeah

Come on, Bundy.

Let's go

Whatever happens, just

know that I love you.

I love you.

Theodore Robert Bundy,

believed by authorities to

be the worst mass

murderer in U.S.

History, and who some

investigators are saying is

responsible for up to one

hundred and fifty brutal sex

murders throughout

the country.

Has escaped from custody for

the second time.

One detective familiar with

the case is warning the

public that Bundy should be

considered extremely

dangerous and that it's only

a matter of time before he

kills again.

Lord have mercy.

Listen, mister, whatever

you're selling, I

ain't buying.

I'm here about the ad in

the paper.

You still got that room

for rent?

No offense, but you don't

look like you'd know what to

do with a room if n you

had one.

I got money.

Right here.

Mama!

Mama!

All right!

What the hell are you

carrying on about?

Mama, this here is...

Chris hagen.

Mama, this here's Chris.

And he'd like to rent

a room.

He gives me his word he

can pay

Hell, I'd give a dog the

best room in the house 'he

had the money to pay for

it. Cash.

Yes, ma'am.

You won't regret it.

Yeah.

And don't be botherin'

me anymore.

I couldn't believe it.

I mean, I know we haven't

been dating that long, but

I, at least, expect him to

buy me something

for Christmas.

He didn't give

you anything?

Sure he gave me

something.

The only thing he's been

trying to give me all

year long.

What are you

talking about?

You know what I mean.

No, I don't.

Tell you what, a few more

of those and I will just

tell you all about it, girl.

Good evening, ladies.

How would you like to help

me finish my pitcher

of beer?

We love being helpful

Great.

I'm Chris

Hi, Chris.

I'm Vicky.

This is my sister, Lara.

Sisters, huh?

Sorority sisters.

Right. So.

Obvious question I know,

but, uh ... What are

your majors?

You know, I haven't quite

decided yet.

Mine's pre-law.

Pre-law?

That's a total waste

of time.

What kind of thing is

that to say?

You know what?

I'm outta here.

Where are you going?

See ya.

I don't think your

sister likes me.

No, she's just not really

good in social situations.

She'll be all right.

So, are you a teacher here?

Yeah.

Yeah, I am.

If you'll excuse me.

No excuse.

Wasn't tonight fun?

Yes.

(knock at the door)

Come in!

Hey, what are you

guys doing?

What does it look like

we're doing?

Right.

I met the biggest creep at

the bar tonight.

Ooh.

Anyway, I just came to

say good night.

Okay.

Good night.

Good night, Lara!

Good night.

See you tomorrow.

Asshole!

Jesus.

(screaming)

Some fucked up shit.

How you doin', Randy?

I tell you what, Chris,

its a crazy world we're

livin' in.

No argument there.

Hear about that psycho

last night?

Went and killed two girls

and then beat two others

half to death.

L-less than a mile

from here.

Yeah, I heard about that.

Why would somebody do a

thing like that for?

I wish I knew.

I mean, goddamn.

I guess some people are

just compelled to kill.

I'm compelled to hit my

mama over the head just

about everyday, but I don't

do it, goddamnit.

But still, you gotta

admire the guy who did it.

Get in there like that, have

his way with those girls,

and then get away.

Takes cunning.

And guts.

I ought to smack you in

the mouth for saying

something like that!

I'm just saying, man-

Aw, fuck you!

You're right, Randy.

Fuck me.

Hey, little girl, what's

your name?

Suzanne.

Suzanne, there's a -

there's been a bit of an

accident.

Your father's been hurt.

My dad?

Yeah.

He asked me to come get you.

Is he okay?

Where is he?

Uh, he's close to here.

Yeah, he's going to be okay.

Well, what happened?

Well, he had a little

accident, and here, why

don't you get in.

Is he okay?

Uh. Uh...Uh..

Fuck...Fuck

Aw... aw...

(yelling continues)

God.

She's dead.

Oh, I'm coming.

Please kill me.

It is further ordered

that on such scheduled date,

that you be put to death by

a current of electricity

sufficient to cause your

immediate death.

And such current of

electricity shall continue

to pass through your body

until you are dead.

I can tell you that

everything's moving ahead

with plans for the execution

at seven A.M.

Bundy was offered a last

meal about forty

minutes ago.

He was offered steak and

eggs, and he refused it.

Prison officials are now

preparing to shave his head

and prepare him for

execution at seven o'clock.

I would like to go right

in there and see him fry.

Burn

Ready for him to die.

Snap, crackle,

pop, buddy.

Justice- justice is

gonna be served at seven

o'clock, bud.

(crowd noise)

I-I don't want to die.

I'm not going to lie to you.

I admit that.

And I'm not asking

for clemency.

I'm not asking

for forgiveness.

I'm not asking for sympathy.

I know they're going to kill

me sooner or later.

Uh, you don't need to worry

about that.

But but there's a lot of

crimes I could solve if the

state could just see fit to

let me live for two or three

years longer.

I-I mean look, I know I'm

not like other people.

I know I can't feel sympathy

for other people.

But I'm still human.

And then I cut her head

off with the hacksaw, and I

took it home with me.

I mean, there's so much

more to me than this guy

that goes around doing those

crazy things.

I, so much more.

Yea, though I walk

through the valley of the

shadow of death, I will fear

no evil, for thou art

with me.

Thy rod and thy staff, they

comfort me.

Thou preparest a table

before me in the presence of

mine enemies.

Thou anointest my head

with oil.

My cup runneth over.

Surely, goodness and mercy

will follow me all the days

of my life, and I will dwell

in the house of the lord

forever and ever.

Amen, Ted.

Amen. Amen, Ted.

Hallelujah.

Hello, Ted.

Now you take it easy

now, Ted.

And just you just keep your

mind on Jesus.

It's time, Ted.

Come on out now.

Got a couple of things to

take care of.

Now, either you come out or

we'll come in and getcha.

Don't make us come in

there, Ted.

Come on.

Come on.

Take it easy.

Take it easy now.

It's all right.

Take it easy now.

All right.

What's he doing?

Don't you worry about him.

Ted, listen to me,

okay? Listen.

I want you to stay real

still for me, all right?

Can you do that?

This okay, Uncle Bob?

Goddamnit, how long you

been practicing that?

All right.

You can go, Ted.

You're all done, okay?

You look beautiful.

What's that for?

That's to stuff your butt.

So you don't mess yourself.

What are you

talking about?

Ain't nothin' to be

ashamed of.

They all do it.

You will, too.

Now, drop them pants.

No.

Come on, Ted.

Don't make it any harder

than it is.

Come on, Ted.

No!

No!

Come on.

No.

You relax now.

If you relax, it'll be a lot

easier okay?

Take it easy.

(yells)

Take it easy.

Try to breathe.

(yells)

Just try to breathe.

Is this okay Uncle Bob?

Yeah, that's good, Wesley.

Keep it comin'.

Aaw!

Feels good, doesn't it?

Boy. Oh, got

cotton balls.

Oh, no!

Just relax

More, Uncle Bob

Just like that, boy.

Stop!

Oh, God!

Come on now.

We're gonna stand up now.

Come on.

Come on.

You're all right.

Just breathe deep.

Breathe deep.

All right now, son.

Come on now.

Stand up.

Hold on.

Hold on.

We got one more little

itty-bitty thing to do now.

It's for your own

good, Ted.

Good.

That's a good boy.

That's a good boy, huh?

Now, you ready?

We don't want to keep your

fans waitin', do we?

Come on.

Theodore Robert Bundy,

do you have a final

statement you'd like to make

before the sentence of the

court is carried out?

Yes.

Tell my family I love them.

Tell them...

Authorities said that

Bundy spent the night

weeping and praying.

Then, at seven A.M., he was

moved to the electric chair.

That's it.

That's it.

That's it.

(cheers)

Theodore Bundy was

executed at seven-sixteen

this morning in the electric

chair at

Florida state prison.

He was executed for the

murder of twelve-year-old

Kimberly Leach of

Lake City, Florida.

You know he was also under

sentence of death for the

murder of two young women

in Tallahassee.

Everything was, uh, carried

out according to the book.

What will happen to

the body?

The body will be taken

to a - a funeral home

in Gainesville.

Finally.

I can't believe it.

I was with him for years.

But I never knew him.

I never knew him at all.

Who was that guy?

Who was Ted Bundy?

I'm Ted Bundy.

I'm Ted Bundy.

I'm Ted Bundy.

I'm Ted Bundy.
