MARY HARTMAN! MARY HARTMAN!

OH, MY LORD.

SIT UP. SIT UP.

HEATHER IN THE HANDS
OF A MANIAC.

SAY IT'S NOT TRUE.

IT'S NOT TRUE.
SHE'S HOME.

SHE'S NOT IN THE HANDS
OF A MANIAC.

NOT TILL 6:30.
THEN I GOTTA GO BACK.

OH, I'M GONNA FAINT AGAIN.

MA! YOU'RE NOT
GONNA FAINT AGAIN,

AND YOU'RE NOT
GOING BACK THERE.



NOW YOU SIT THERE
AND YOU DRINK YOUR WATER.

HEATHER,
YOU SHOULD'VE GOTTEN HER
THAT MOUNTAIN SPRING WATER.

STAY!

NOW, HEATHER,
I'M VERY UPSET ABOUT THIS

AND I WANNA KNOW
WHAT'S GOING ON HERE.

I WANNA KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT,

ABOUT TERMS AND STORIES
AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

DID YOU MAKE UP THIS STORY,
OR WHAT?

NO, HONEST.

I'M SORRY ABOUT DISSING
DETECTIVE JOHNSON,

BUT I HAD TO GET AWAY

BECAUSE EVERYBODY KNEW ABOUT
THAT CREEP KENNY WHITMAN.

WHAT DID EVERYBODY KNOW?

THAT THE ONLY REASON
HE ASKED ME TO THE DANCE
ON FRIDAY



WAS SO HE COULD GET ON T.V.

YOU RAN AWAY BECAUSE OF THAT?

WITH A MANIAC?

NO. WITH TRUDY WEATHERSBY.

WE WERE GONNA TAKE A BUS
TO TERRE HAUTE,

BUT DAVID MADE US
COME WITH HIM

TO THIS OLD STOREFRONT.

SO, NOW, THAT'S WHERE
YOU'VE BEEN ALL THIS TIME?

SHE SPENT 2 NIGHTS
AND 2 DAYS WITH A MANIAC.

OH, I'M DIZZY.

MA, MA,
NOW, PUT YOUR HEAD
BETWEEN YOUR LEGS.

JUST HANG YOUR HEAD OVER,
PUT IT BETWEEN YOUR LEGS.

GOOD. THAT'S GOOD.
GO AHEAD, HEATHER.

IT WASN'T BAD. HONEST.
IT WAS KINDA LIKE A COOKOUT.

WE ROASTED HOT DOGS
AND MARSHMALLOWS.

HE'S GOT LOTS OF NEAT FOOD
STASHED AWAY THERE.

WELL, ANYWAY,
HE SENT ME ON THIS ERRAND

AND IF I DON'T GET BACK
BY 6:30...

DOOMSVILLE.

W-WHAT ERRAND?
WHAT DOES HE WANT, MORE FOOD?

UH-UH, HE WANTS $100,000
AND A CAR.

OH.

WELL, THE CAR
IS IN THE REPAIR SHOP.

$100,000?

HE SHOULD TRY
TO GET ON A GAME SHOW.

I'VE ONLY GOT $4.36.

AND I DON'T KNOW
WHAT TO DO ABOUT THE CAR.

OH, HEATHER, THAT'S SWEET.

MARY, WHERE ARE YOU GONNA
GET THAT BY 6:30?

I DON'T EVEN KNOW
IF WE CAN GET IT BY 7:30.

YOU HAVE TO CALL
THE POLICE.

NO! DAVID SAID NOT TO.

DAVID! DAVID!
YOU KEEP TALKING ABOUT DAVID.

WHO IS THIS DAVID?

HIS LAST NAME IS JESSUP
AND HE'S GOT CURLY HAIR.

LITTLE DAVEY JESSUP?

THAT SWEET, LITTLE
DAVEY JESSUP?

YOU KNOW HIM?
NO.

YOU DON'T KNOW HIM?

NO. I MEAN,
IT COULDN'T BE HIM.

DAVEY...

YOU KNOW, HE'S THE ONE,
HE LIVES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD,

HE GOES TO JUNIOR COLLEGE,

AND HE'S TRYIN'
TO WORK HIS WAY
THROUGH SCHOOL.

HE DOES ODD JOBS
AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

HE WAS THE ONE
WHO MADE THAT SPLINT

FOR JOYCE CUTLER'S KITCHEN

WHEN HER...
FOR JOYCE CUTLER'S KITTEN

WHEN HER HUSBAND
TRIPPED OVER HIM
IN THE DARK.

OH, HER HUSBAND
TRIPPED OVER DAVEY JESSUP?

NO, NO, THE KITTEN.
HER HUSBAND
TRIPPED OVER THE KITTEN

AND THEN HE STEPPED
ON THE KITTEN,

AND THEN HE BROKE
THE KITTEN'S LEGS.

AND DAVEY JESSUP
SAVED THE KITTEN'S LIFE.

YEAH, THAT'S HIM!
HE LOVES ANIMALS.

HE'S JUST SICK
ABOUT WHAT HE DID

TO THE LOMBARDI'S GOATS
AND CHICKENS.

OH, OF COURSE. I MEAN,
HE'S A WONDERFUL BOY.

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

DAVEY JESSUP,
THE MASS MURDERER?

I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT. WHY?

WHY WOULD HE DO
SUCH AN AWFUL...

THAT'S SUCH A TERRIBLE...

MA, I LOVE YOU.

I LOVE YOU, TOO, MARY.

HE SAID HE WOULDN'T
TALK ABOUT THE LOMBARDIS

BECAUSE IT GAVE HIM HEADACHES.

OH, WELL, THAT'S PROBABLY
JUST BECAUSE

HE ISN'T EATING PROPERLY
BECAUSE OF ALL THIS TENSION.

ALL HE WOULD DO
IS JUST SIT THERE
AND LOOK SAD.

HE IS SORRY,

BUT IF HIS TERMS AREN'T MET,
HE'S GONNA KILL TRUDY,

AND HE'LL BE EVEN SORRIER,
AND SO WILL I.

HEATHER,
SIT DOWN OVER THERE.
I WANT TO TALK TO YOU.

SIT THERE. GO.

HEATHER,
YOU CAN'T GO BACK THERE.

BUT, MOM,
TRUDY'S THE ONLY FRIEND
I'VE GOT.

SWEETHEART, WE'LL ENROLL YOU
IN ANOTHER DANCING CLASS

AND YOU'LL MAKE
MORE FRIENDS.

BUT YOU CAN'T GO THERE.

AND YOU! YOU MUST TAKE
AN IRON SUPPLEMENT

SO YOU WON'T FAINT
LIKE THIS.

BUT I WILL NOT LET YOU
GO BACK THERE!

WHAT WE NEED IS
WE NEED SOMEBODY

TO TAKE CHARGE
AT A TIME LIKE THIS.

I'LL GO.

NO!
NO, MARY,
YOU CAN'T GO.

NO, I'M GONNA GO.

I'M GONNA HAVE
THIS NICE LITTLE TALK
WITH HIM.

I HAVE A FEELING
HE'LL LISTEN TO ME.

WELL, WHAT ARE YOU
GONNA TALK ABOUT?

I DON'T KNOW.
I'M JUST GONNA TALK.

I'M GONNA TALK HIM
OUT OF DOIN' THIS THING.

OH, NO, MARY, YOU CAN'T.

WHY? I CAN.
DON'T WORRY, MOM.

I MEAN, THAT SWEET BOY!

I MEAN, I'M TELLING YOU,
I CAN TALK HIM INTO ANYTHING.

I'M JUST SURE OF IT.

THAT SWEET LITTLE BOY
IS A MASS MURDERER!

MA, WILL YOU PLEASE
NOT WORRY ABOUT THIS?

IT'S GONNA BE FINE.

NOW, WHERE'S THE STORE,
HEATHER?

I GOTTA WHISPER IT TO YOU

'CAUSE IF THE POLICE FIND OUT
BEFORE 6:30,

DAVEY'S GONNA KILL TRUDY.

OK, SWEETHEART,
YOU WHISPER IT TO ME.

I JUST DON'T LIKE IT.

I DON'T LIKE IT.
OH, I'M DIZZY.

I THINK I'M GONNA FAINT.

THAT'S JUST
AROUND THE CORNER.

I SWEAR, I'M GONNA FAINT.

UM, NO,
YOU'RE NOT GONNA FAINT.

YOU HAVE GOT
TO TAKE CARE OF HEATHER

UNTIL TOM COMES HOME.
THEN YOU CAN FAINT.

NO, MARY,
I DON'T WANT YOU TO GO.

PLEASE DON'T GO.

ARE YOU GONNA FAINT, GRANDMA?

NO, SWEETHEART, I'M TOO UPSET.

AH, I'M SORRY,
I'M REALLY SORRY.

WOULD YOU LIKE A DRINK?

NO.

A CIGARETTE?

NO, NO.

SOME CHOCOLATE?

MMM-MMM.

HOW ABOUT WHEATIES,
THE BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS?

COME ON, WILL YOU?

WHY DON'T YOU
JUST COME RIGHT OUT
AND SAY IT THEN, HUH?

YOU ARE TEMPORARILY
IMPRACTICAL.

TOM, DON'T WORRY
ABOUT IT.

I'M NOT WORRIED.
YES, YOU ARE.

OK, I'M WORRIED.

WILL YOU LISTEN?

YEAH, SURE,
I'LL LISTEN.

DO YOU KNOW
WHAT THE PROBLEM IS?

WHAT?

YOU KEEP THINKING ABOUT
HOW YOU'RE DOING TOO MUCH.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

I MEAN, YOU JUST GOTTA
STOP THINKING ABOUT IT

AND LET IT HAPPEN.

IT'S THE THINKING
THAT GETS YOU IN TROUBLE.

WELL, WAIT A MINUTE, I MEAN,
IF I'M THINKIN' ABOUT IT,

HOW CAN I NOT STOP
THINKIN' ABOUT IT?

WELL, YOU JUST GOTTA
GO OUT OF YOUR MIND.

WELL, I'M GOIN'
OUT OF MY MIND.

I'LL TELL YOU THAT RIGHT NOW.
I MEAN, I'M THINKIN' ABOUT IT.

HOW CAN... IT'S GOTTA BE
ON YOUR MIND THEN.

BUT YOU CAN'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

I MEAN, YOU JUST GOTTA GO
WITH THE PLEASURE,

WITH THE ENJOYMENT.

THAT'S WHAT I DO, YOU KNOW.

YEAH, SURE,

LISTEN, I WANTED...
I WANTED TO DO IT.

I... I DON'T WANNA DO
A ROTTEN JOB. I MEAN...

WELL, IT'S NOT A JOB.

AND YOU CAN'T DO IT ROTTEN,
IT'S JUST WHAT IT IS.

YOU KNOW YOU PUT
TOO MUCH PRESSURE ON YOURSELF.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE PERFECT.

YOU KNOW,
YOU'RE LOADING THE DICE
AGAINST YOURSELF.

HEY, COME ON, RELAX.

I'LL GET YOU A DRINK,

THEN YOU CAN HAVE
A NICE, HOT SHOWER.

AND I'LL TAKE
A NICE, HOT SHOWER WITH YOU.

COME ON.

IT'S, UH...

IT'S JUST NOT GONNA WORK,
THAT'S ALL,

IT'S JUST NOT GONNA WORK.

THERE YOU GO AGAIN.
WHAT AM I GONNA DO WITH YOU?

THAT'S NOT THE PROBLEM, MAE.

THE PROBLEM IS,
WHAT AM I GONNA DO WITH YOU?

JUST WHAT WE'RE DOING.
LET'S JUST HAVE FUN...

THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEAN!
THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEAN AT ALL.

THE PROBLEM IS
WHAT AM I GOING TO DO
WITH YOU IN MY LIFE?

OH.

I, UH...

I THINK I NEED A DRINK.

YEAH, WELL,

I THINK I BETTER LEAVE.

YES.

YEAH, I GOTTA BE GETTIN' HOME.

WELL...

WILL I SEE YOU AGAIN?

YEAH, I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW
AT THE PLANT.

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

I DON'T KNOW.

HONEST TO GOD,
I REALLY DON'T KNOW.

I DON'T KNOW.

LISTEN, I KNOW I'M TALKING
TO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.

ANYBODY ELSE WOULD UNDERSTAND
WHAT I'M TRYING TO TELL YOU.

MY GRANDDAUGHTER IS HERE.

MY DAUGHTER
HAS TAKEN HER PLACE.

YES. WHAT'S HER NAME?

M-MARY HARTMAN! MARY HARTMAN!

DID YOU HEAR THAT?
MARY HARTMAN!

THE MASS MURDERER
IS HOLDING HER HOSTAGE.

NOW YOU BETTER SEND OUT
THE S.W.I.T. SQUAD, UH...

OH, S.W.I.T. OR S.W.A.T.!
JUST GET HER OUT OF THERE.

LISTEN, I AM KEEPING MY CALM.
LOOK AT MY HAND! NEVER MIND.

WHAT?

YES, ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.
BUT GET HIM OVER HERE
ON THE DOUBLE.

I TELL YOU
THAT POLICE DEPARTMENT

IS FULL OF NOTHIN'
BUT A.P.B.s.

GEORGE, WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?

PULL THE PLUG AND DIE.

MA, PA,

STEVE'S WAITIN' OUT
IN THE MINI-TRUCK

AND I WANT YOU GUYS
TO MEET HIM.

STEVE? WHO'S STEVE?

OH, GEORGE,
I FORGOT TO TELL YOU.

HE'S THE DEAF-MUTE FELLOW
CATHY'S GONNA MARRY.

MARTHA, I THINK
I'M GOING OUT OF MY MIND.

DADDY, STEVE'S ADORABLE.

AND I KNOW
YOU'LL JUST LIKE HIM
A WHOLE LOT

ONCE YOU GET TO KNOW HIM.

HOW... HOW DO YOU SUPPOSE
YOU GET TO KNOW
A DEAF AND DUMB PERSON?

HE'S NOT DUMB DUMB,
HE JUST CAN'T TALK.

HE'S A MUTE.

I DON'T BELIEVE THIS.
WHY ME? WHY?

OF COURSE,
YOU DON'T HAVE ANY TROUBLE
GETTING TO KNOW ANYBODY.

OH, MA.

DAD, YOU DO WANT TO MEET HIM,
DON'T YOU?

I MEAN, YOU UNDERSTAND.

THE ONLY THING I UNDERSTAND
IS THE FACT THAT I'M GOING
TO HAVE A HEART ATTACK

WITHIN 30 SECONDS.

DADDY, I LOVE STEVE.

I MEAN, HE ISN'T
LIKE MY OTHER BOYFRIENDS.

HE'S THE...
HE IS THE MOST WONDERFUL,

KINDEST,

HANDSOMEST, BLONDEST...

I MEAN, JUST BECAUSE
HE TALKS WITH HIS HANDS...

WHAT ELSE DOES HE DO
WITH HIS HANDS?

I'LL GET HIM
AND THEN YOU CAN SEE
FOR YOURSELF.

MARTHA, WHY CAN'T YOU
TAKE CARE OF YOUR DAUGHTERS?

I DON'T ANYMORE GET HOME
FROM A HARD DAY'S WORK,

WHEN I FIND OUT
THAT MY YOUNGEST DAUGHTER

IS GOING WITH SOMEBODY
THAT CAN'T SPEAK OR TALK

AND POSSIBLY
IS GOING TO MARRY HIM,

AND MY OLDEST DAUGHTER
IS BEING HELD HOSTAGE
BY A MASS CRIMINAL.

WELL, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT
FROM ME? I'M ONLY HUMAN.

I CAN'T KEEP
LOOKING AT THOSE GIRLS
FOR 24 HOURS A DAY.

THAT'S YOUR RESPONSIBILITY,
MARTHA.

WHAT'S THE SENSE OF HAVING
MARY LIVING 2 DOORS AWAY

IF YOU LET HER GO OFF
HALF-COCKED

TO TRY TO TALK A MASS CRIMINAL
INTO GIVIN' HIMSELF UP?

LISTEN, MARY'S A GROWN PERSON
WITH A HUSBAND AND A CHILD,

AND BESIDES,
SHE WON'T LISTEN TO ME.

WELL, CATHY
ISN'T GROWN UP YET,

AND I'M NOT GONNA
LET HER MARRY

SOME LITTLE PIPSQUEAK
THAT'S BLONDE

AND TALKS WITH HIS FINGERS.

THAT IS OUT...
HERE'S STEVE FLETCHER.

OH, UH, HELLO, STEVE.

WHY ARE YOU
SAYING HELLO TO HIM
IF HE CAN'T HEAR YOU?

HAS HE GOT A COLD?

NO, HE... HE UNDERSTOOD
EVERYTHING YOU SAID.

YOU SEE, HE READS LIPS.

OH.

OH.

OH, F-FOR ME?
WELL, THANK YOU.

WOULD YOU LIKE
A LITTLE DRINK OF WATER?

WHY, YES.

STEVE HAS
HIS OWN GARDENING BUSINESS,

AND HE'S GOING
TO JUNIOR COLLEGE
TO LEARN ACCOUNTING

SO HE CAN DO HIS OWN BOOKS
AND EVERYTHING.

OH, GEORGE, A COLLEGE MAN.

HOW COULD HE KNOW SO MUCH
IF HE CAN'T TALK?

WELL, UM, HE HAS
WAYS OF COMMUNICATING.

SUCH AS?

WELL, HE... HE WRITES ME NOTES.

AND I'M REALLY
BEGINNING TO UNDERSTAND HIM
VERY WELL.

I'M EVEN LEARNING
THE SI-SIGN LANGUAGE.

WATCH. UH...

I DON'T THINK I LIKE THIS.

I DON'T LIKE TALKING
IN FOREIGN LANGUAGES.

WELL, IT'S NOT FOREIGN

AND ALL I SAID WAS
THAT I LOVED HIM.

ISN'T THAT NICE?

WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?

I NEVER TALKED
TO A DEAF GUY BEFORE.

JUST SAY HELLO.

HELLO. HOW ARE YOU?

I DON'T WANT TO BE RUDE.

I'M LAUGHING.

BUT DON'T GET ANY IDEAS
ABOUT MY DAUGHTER.

DADDY!

IT'S BETWEEN HIM AND ME.
IT'S BETWEEN HIM AND ME.

OH, EXCUSE MY MANNERS.

BUT WON'T YOU
SIT DOWN HERE

AND THEN LATER
WE'LL HAVE MAY BE, UM.

COME OVER HERE, CATHY,
I DON'T WANT HIM TO HEAR US.

NOW, HOW DO YOU SAY SALT?

NOW LISTEN, CATHY.

YOU'RE A SWEET GIRL
AND YOU'RE MY PET.

AND HE'S
A NICE-LOOKING GUY.

BUT, PLEASE, PLEASE,
DON'T GET SERIOUS ABOUT HIM.

I ALREADY AM
SERIOUS ABOUT HIM.

I'M GONNA MARRY HIM.

NOW, THESE ARE
OUR FAMILY PICTURES

AND THIS IS GRANDPA LARKIN.

OH, COME OVER HERE,
COME OVER HERE.

YOU KNOW
ABOUT MY CONDITION?

OH, DADDY.

MY HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE? AH!

LISTEN,

YOU DON'T WANNA BE...
YOU DON'T WANNA BE RESPONSIBLE

FOR YOUR OWN FATHER'S
OWN HEART ATTACK, DO YOU?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
WHY ARE YOU GETTING SO UPSET?

OH, THE PUMP, THE PUMP,
THE PUMP IS STARTING TO GO.

BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR SISTER.

MARY?

YES, YOU HAVEN'T EVEN
HEARD ABOUT HER YET.

WHAT? M-MARY?

YES. SHE IS YOUR SISTER,
ISN'T SHE?

W-WHAT HAS SHE GOT TO DO
WITH THIS?

RAYMOND, WE'VE GOT
THE WHOLE NIGHT AHEAD OF US.

THE NIGHT IS YOUNG
AND YOU'RE SO BEAUTIFUL.

THERE'S JUST SO MUCH MILEAGE

AN OLD GEEZER LIKE THAT
CAN TAKE

UNTIL YOU FILL HER UP AGAIN.

OH, I'M TIRED, I'M HUNGRY
A-AND I WANT TO BE ALONE.

OH, GRANDPA,
THIS IS STEVE FLETCHER.

WHAT'S GOIN' ON HERE?
A CONVENTION?

WE'RE WAITING FOR THE POLICE.

WHAT DID I DO THIS TIME?

NO, WE'RE GONNA
TALK ABOUT MARY.

WHAT'S HAPPENED TO MARY?

OH, NOTHING, EXCEPT SHE MIGHT
BE HAVING HER HEAD BLOWN OFF

AT THE MOMENT.

GEORGE,
DON'T SAY THINGS LIKE THAT.

WHERE IS SHE?

RAYMOND, I TOLD YOU
NOT TO GO HOME.

IT'S ALWAYS BETTER
TO KEEP AWAY FROM THEM.

I WANT YOU TO GO HOME,
FANNY.

YOU'RE TOO MUCH FOR ME.
RAYMOND.

"GO HERE, GO THERE."

RAYMOND...
NO, LOOK,
I'M TOO OLD FOR YOU.

I'LL COME BACK TOMORROW!
IT'S ALL OVER.

GO HOME. GOODBYE.
NO, I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW.

I WANNA GO BACK TO GATHERING
DUST LIKE THE FURNITURE.

WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME
WHERE MARY IS?

SHE IS WITH
THAT HOMICIDICAL KILLER,

THE ONE WHO CLOBBERED
ALL THE LOMBARDIS.

NOT TO MENTION THE GOATS
AND THE CHICKENS.

OH, NO.

OH, YES.

IS THE MANIAC
A FRIEND OF HERS?

I HOPE SO.

I TOLD HER NOT TO GO.

I TRIED TO STOP HER,

BUT SHE'S SO HEADSTRONG
AND STUBBORN.

EVEN WHEN SHE
WAS A LITTLE GIRL...

MARTHA, WILL YOU PLEASE ANSWER
THE DETECTIVE'S QUESTIONS?

WHAT I WANNA FIND OUT IS
JUST WHERE THIS JESSUP BOY
IS HOLED UP.

NOW YOU SAID IT WAS
AN ABANDONED STOREFRONT.

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA
WHERE IT WAS LOCATED?

NO, I DON'T.

BUT I DON'T THINK
IT'S IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD.

NOW, THERE WAS AN EMPTY STORE
DOWN THE WAY,

THE HEALTH FOOD STORE,
BUT NOW IT'S A FROSTEE FREEZE.

OF COURSE, THERE CAN'T BE
TOO MANY ABANDONED STOREFRONTS

IN FERNWOOD.

WAIT A MINUTE, WAIT A MINUTE.
DO YOU THINK HE MIGHT HAVE
TAKEN THAT OTHER GIRL,

THAT TRUDY WEATHERVANE
OR WHAT'S-HER-NAME?

DON'T WORRY, MR. SHUMWAY.
HE WON'T GET FAR.

WE'LL PUT OUT AN A.P.B.
AND MOBILIZE THE ENTIRE FORCE
IF NECESSARY.

ANOTHER A.P.B.
WHAT?

I GOT MY FILL OF A.P.B.s
WHEN MY GRANDDAUGHTER
WAS MISSING.

IF SHE'D ONLY TELL
WHERE THE STORE IS.

WHAT STORE?

WHO, MA'AM?
HEATHER.

WHAT STORE?
WHERE THE KILLER IS.

OH, YOU MEAN
YOUR GRANDDAUGHTER KNOWS?

WHAT STORE?
YOU MEAN HEATHER KNOW...

HEATHER.
WHERE'S... WHERE'S HEATHER?
WELL, SHE'S OUT WITH CATHY.

HERE I AM.

MARTHA, WHY DIDN'T
YOU TELL ME

THAT HEATHER KNEW
WHERE HER MOTHER WAS?

UH, DIDN'T I...
DIDN'T I TELL YOU
WHERE IT WAS?

WHY DIDN'T I TELL YOU?

BECAUSE I CAN'T TELL.

OH, THAT'S WHY
I DIDN'T TELL YOU.

BECAUSE SHE CAN'T TELL.

HEATHER, I WANT YOU
TO TELL THE DETECTIVE
WHERE YOUR MOTHER IS.

I CAN'T.

NOT UNTIL 6:30.

'CAUSE HE'LL KILL MOTHER
AND TRUDY AND HIMSELF.

WILL YOU TELL THE DETECTIVE
WHERE YOUR MOTHER IS!

JUST TAKE IT EASY,
MR. SHUMWAY.

I'LL TAKE IT EASY!
I GOT YOUR "TAKE IT EASY".

IT'S ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA
TO TAKE IT EASY

WHEN YOUR DAUGHTER
IS IN THE CLUTCHES
OF A MAD KILLER, SIR.

HI, FOLKS, IS MARY...

DADDY!
HEATHER!

HEY, HOW ARE YOU?
OH, MY GOD!

IT'S SO GOOD TO SEE YOU!
YOU HAD US CRAZY WITH WORRY,
KIDDO.

WHERE WERE YOU?
WHERE'D YOU GO?

I COULD ASK YOU
THE SAME QUESTION.

HUH?

YOU KNOW
WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.

GEORGE,
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

NOTHING, MARTHA,
IT'S JUST ONE OF THOSE THINGS.

HEY, COME ON, GEORGE.
LISTEN, WHERE'S MARY?

UH, THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TRYING
TO FIND OUT, MR. HARTMAN.

W-WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE,
DETECTIVE JOHNSON?

WHAT'S GOIN' ON?

OH, NOTHING EXCEPT
MRS. HARTMAN PUT HERSELF

IN THE HANDS
OF THE MASS MURDERER,

UH, IN EXCHANGE FOR HEATHER.

OH, COME ON, COME ON.
HEATHER? HEATHER,

IS THAT WHERE YOU WERE?

UH-HUH.

HE SAID I CAN COME BACK
JUST TO TELL MOMMY THE TERMS

BECAUSE WE COULD TRUST HER.

WHERE IS SHE?
WHERE'S YOUR MOTHER, HUH?

LET'S GO AND GET HER.
WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR?
COME ON.

YOUR DAUGHTER'S THE ONLY ONE
WHO KNOWS WHERE SHE IS.

AND SHE CAN'T TELL
UNTIL 6:30.
WHAT?

DAD, YOU WANTED TO KNOW
WHEN THE NEWS WAS ON.

IT'S 6:30.
OH, GOOD, IT'S 6:30.

GOOD, 6:30.
6:30.

OK, HONEY,
COME ON, NOW, TELL US.

414 1/2 MILLER ROAD.

I'M OFF.

W-WAIT JUST A MINUTE.
LET'S NOT GO OFF HALF-COCKED.

LISTEN, YOU JUST GET
YOUR GUN COCKED.

WAIT A MINUTE.

OH, WAIT! AT LEAST
LET ME ALERT THE POLICE.

I'M COMING, TOM.

OH, WHERE IS THE TELEPHONE?

HI, DAVEY.
IT'S ME, MARY HARTMAN.

MARY HARTMAN.

WHERE'S HEATHER?

I CAME IN HER PLACE.

UH, NO, THANK YOU, DAVEY,
I... I... I'M NOT COMING IN.

DON'T CALL ME THAT.

OH, ALL RIGHT, DAVEY.
UH, DAVID.

IS THAT ALL RIGHT?

OH, I COULD CALL YOU
MR. JESSUP IF YOU PREFER.

I JUST THOUGHT...
WHAT DO YOU WANT?

I JUST WANT TO KNOW
WHAT TO CALL YOU.

I COULD BLOW YOUR HEAD OFF,
YOU KNOW.

YEAH, I KNOW.

I... THAT IS NOT WHAT I WANT.

NOT JUST NOW, ANYWAY.

UH, WHAT I WANT IS
FOR YOU TO LET TRUDY GO.

I'M SORRY, MRS. HARTMAN,
BUT I CAN'T LET HER GO

UNTIL ALL MY TERMS
HAVE BEEN MET.

WELL, THEN YOU'RE GONNA HAVE
TO BLOW MY HEAD OFF.

BUT...

JUST REMEMBER THAT
THERE'S GONNA BE
A LOT OF ATTENTION ON YOU

AND YOU'RE GONNA
PROBABLY GET ARRE...

HAVE YOU EATEN ANYTHING TODAY?

BECAUSE, YOU KNOW,
PEOPLE WITH LOW BLOOD SUGAR
GET DEPRESSED VERY EASILY.

DON'T MAKE ME DO IT,
MRS. HARTMAN.

OH, DAVEY,
I DON'T WANT YOU TO DO IT.

I MEAN, REALLY
IF THERE'S ONE THING I SWEAR,

I DO NOT WANT YOU
TO BLOW MY HEAD OFF.

NOW, IF YOU COULD
JUST LET TRUDY GO

IN EXCHANGE FOR ME,

THAT WOULD BE GREAT.

DO I HAVE TO?

TRUDY, YOUR PARENTS
ARE WORRIED TO DEATH.
NOW, GO HOME.

COME. COME ON, SCOOT.

"SCOOT," DAVEY.
I SAID, "SCOOT,"
NOT "SHOOT." "SCOOT."

THERE.

NOW, THAT WASN'T SO HARD,
WAS IT?

NOW WE CAN HAVE
THAT NICE LITTLE TALK.

NO, UH, REALLY, DAVEY,

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME
YOU HAD A CHECKUP?

DENTAL?

NOW HERE ARE SOME SCENES
FROM THE NEXT EPISODES

OF MARY HARTMAN, MARY HARTMAN.

AND I'D LIKE
TO GET MY HANDS
ON THAT MANIAC.

I'D SHOW HIM HURT.

LOOK, MY WIFE'S IN THERE.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET HER
OUT OF THERE WITH... TALKING
THROUGH SOME DAMN KAZOO.

THE KID'S
A TRIGGER-HAPPY PSYCHO.

SHH.

LOOK AT US, DAVEY.

WE'RE BOTH SMILING.

NOW CAN YOU SMILE,
TOO, DAVEY?

I'M CLETE MIZENHEIMER

AND WE'RE STANDING
JUST ACROSS THE STREET

FROM THE ABANDONED
CHINESE LAUNDRY

WHERE HOUSEWIFE,
MARY HARTMAN...

KISS ME, TOM.

KISS YOU NOW?
YEAH.

GET OUT OF HERE
OR HE'LL KILL US BOTH.

I'M NOT LEAVING HERE
WITHOUT YOU.

TOM, TRUST ME.
I CAN HANDLE THIS.

ARE YOU SURE?
I'M SURE.

NO, NO, DON'T DO ANYTHING.
DON'T DO ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

WHERE'S MARY?

YES, WHY DIDN'T YOU
BRING HER OUT WITH YOU?

IS SHE ALL RIGHT?

OH, I FEEL FAINT. OH!
