MARY HARTMAN! MARY HARTMAN!

DON'T LET THIS SCENE
CONFUSE YOU.

YOU SAW IT YESTERDAY,
YOU'RE SEEING IT AGAIN TODAY.

SOMETIMES, WE REPEAT A SCENE

FOR THE PEOPLE
WHO MISSED SOMETHING
YESTERDAY.

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.
UM, UH, DAVID,
IS THAT ALL RIGHT?

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

I JUST DON'T...
WHAT DO YOU WANT?

I JUST WANT TO KNOW
WHAT TO CALL YOU.

I COULD BLOW YOU HEAD OFF,
YOU KNOW.

YEAH, I KNOW.

UH, 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...

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 HERE, 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.

SO, HOW ARE YOU, DAVEY?

I'M A LITTLE NERVOUS,
MRS. HARTMAN.

OH, WELL,
OF COURSE YOU ARE.

UH.

DON'T POINT THE GUN
AT MY HEAD, DAVEY.

WHERE'S HEATHER?

OH, I CAME IN HER PLACE.

BUT I WANTED HER
TO COME BACK.

UH,

I THINK THAT
WE'D BE A LOT CALMER
IF WE SAT DOWN.

UM...

HUH.

WELL,
THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE

ANY PLACE TO, UH, SIT,
DOES THERE?

IS THAT CORRECT
GRAMMATICALLY?
DOES THERE?

UH, DID... DID... DID YOU
BRING THE MONEY?

$100,000?

UH, WELL, NO, DAVEY.

ACTUALLY, SEE, I DON'T USUALLY
KEEP THAT MUCH MONEY

AROUND THE HOUSE.

UH, BUT I... I'D BE GLAD
TO TALK ABOUT IT.

UM, LISTEN,
IF YOU DON'T WANNA
SIT ON THE FLOOR,

UM, WHY DON'T YOU
SIT OVER THERE
ON WHATEVER THAT IS?

YOU KNOW, THAT CRATE
OR, YOU KNOW,

UH, UM, THE MATTRESS...

THE MATTRESS?

OH, THANK YOU,
VERY SWEET OF YOU.
THANK YOU.

WHAT ABOUT THE CAR?

UH, DAVEY,
YOU'RE STILL POINTING
THE GUN AT ME.

UH, HASN'T ANYONE
EVER MENTIONED TO YOU

THAT IT'S NOT A GOOD IDEA
TO, UH, POINT GUNS ON PEOPLE?

YOU KNOW, THEY COULD GO OFF
AND SOME ACCIDENT
COULD HAPPEN.

MRS. HARTMAN?
I MEAN, UH, EXCUSE ME,

YOU... YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED
TO THE LOMBARDIS, I MEAN,

THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT.
I MEAN,
THERE WAS A LITTLE MISTAKE,

AND WE WOULDN'T WANT THAT
TO HAPPEN AGAIN, WOULD WE?

UH, I... I DON'T WANT TO
TALK ABOUT THAT.

OH, FINE, FINE.
THEN WE WON'T
TALK ABOUT THAT.

WHAT DO YOU
WANT TO TALK ABOUT?

OH, WELL,
MY... MY HEAD HURTS.

IS... IS THAT A REAL GUN,
DAVEY?

THAT'S NOT REAL, IS IT?

WHAT IS THAT? A LITTLE TOY,
A LITTLE WATER OR CAP PISTOL?

NO, IT'S REAL.

OH, IT IS REAL.

OH.

SEE, I SAW THIS SKIT ON
THE HOWARD COSELL SHOW ONCE.

IT WAS A HILARIOUS SKIT.

AND TINA LOUISE HAD A GUN,

AND SHE TOOK OUT HER GUN

AND SHE PULLED THE TRIGGER,

AND A SIGN CAME OUT
THAT SAID, "BANG."

ISN'T THAT HILARIOUS,
DAVEY?

DOES YOURS HAVE A SIGN,
DAVEY?

IT DOES, DOESN'T IT?

IT'S REAL.

I'M SORRY, MRS. HARTMAN,

I... I DIDN'T WANNA
SCARE YOU.

NO, THAT'S OK.

I DIDN'T WANNA GRAB
HEATHER EITHER,

EXCEPT THAT I KNEW
SHE COULD IDENTIFY ME

AND, UH, I KNEW
I HAD TO TRY
TO... TO SHUT HER UP.

I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT HER
OR... OR HER FRIEND,

THAT'S OK.

IT'S JUST THAT
I GOTTA FIND SOME WAY
OUT OF THIS, AND,

WELL, THAT'S WHY I ASKED
FOR THE MONEY AND THE CAR.

UH-HUH.

YOU DIDN'T, UH, UH,
BRING THE CAR, EITHER?

UH, UM, THE CAR
IS IN THE REPAIR SHOP.

THE REPAIR SHOP
CLOSES AT 5:00.

I CALLED THE REPAIR SHOP,
BUT IT WAS AFTER 5:00.

SEE, I THINK RIGHT NOW
THAT IT'S AFTER 6:30.

BOY, DOES MY HEAD
EVER HURT.

OH, UM, UM, UH,
I THINK THAT'S JUST
TENSION, THAT'S ALL.

THAT'S JUST TENSION
OR THAT'S LOW BLOOD SUGAR.

DO YOU KNOW THAT PEOPLE
WITH LOW BLOOD SUGAR

HAVE BEEN KNOWN
TO JUMP OFF BRIDGES?

SO, IT'S CERTAINLY
UNDERSTANDABLE

THAT YOU WOULD
WANNA KILL SOMEBODY.

I MEAN, NOT ME!
BUT SOMEBODY, YOU KNOW.

OH, DAVEY, YOU KNOW,
YOU REALLY OUGHT TO
MAKE AN APPOINTMENT

WITH YOUR DOCTOR
FIRST CHANCE YOU GET.

OR, HAVE A GLASS
OF ORANGE JUICE.

DO YOU HAVE ANY
ORANGES AROUND HERE?

SIRENS!

I GOTTA DO SOMETHING.

OH, I HAVE AN IDEA.

I HAVE AN IDEA.

GIVE YOURSELF UP.

NO, NO, NO, NO!

I'LL KILL MYSELF FIRST!

OH, NO, DAVEY,
DON'T DO THAT.

DAVEY, DON'T DO THAT.
DAVEY, THAT'S VERY DANGEROUS.

DON'T DO THAT, DAVEY,
THAT'S VERY DANGEROUS.

TAKE THAT... DAVEY,
I'M GETTING VERY IMPATIENT
WITH YOU.

NOW, TAKE THAT GUN
OUT OF YOUR MOUTH.

TAKE THAT
OUT OF YOUR MOUTH.

TAKE THAT OUT
AND GIVE THAT TO ME.

GIVE ME THAT GUN.
GIVE ME THAT GUN!

DON'T ARGUE WITH ME,
MRS. HARTMAN!

I CAN'T STAND IT
WHEN PEOPLE ARGUE!

THAT'S THE WAY IT WAS
ALL MY LIFE!

PEOPLE YELLING AND SCREAMING!

MY MOTHER AND MY FATHER!

MAYBE YOU SHOULDN'T
THINK ABOUT IT, DAVEY.

YOU... YOU... YOU DON'T KNOW
WHAT IT WAS LIKE.

ALL THE TIME I WAS GROWING UP,

BEATING ON EACH OTHER
AND ON ME.

FROM THE TIME
I WAS A... A LITTLE KID.

AND, AND ALL THAT NOISE.

IT GAVE ME...
GAVE ME HEADACHES.

I... I REMEMBER,

I REMEMBER ONCE
WHEN I WAS, I WAS ONLY 4,

HE WAS, UH,
HE WAS, UH, HITTING HER.

HITTING WHO?

MY MOTHER.

MY... MY FATHER
WAS... WAS HITTING MY MOTHER
WITH A FLY SWATTER.

A FLY SWATTER?
DOES THAT HURT?

WELL, IT WAS SUMMER
AND... AND... AND SHE WAS CRYING

AND... AND MY GRANDMOTHER WAS...
SHE WAS ON HER KNEES,

AND... AND SHE WAS, UH,
SHE WAS FOLLOWING
MY... MY FATHER AROUND,

UH, B-B-BEGGING HIM TO STOP.

WELL, MAYBE IT WAS THE HEAT,
YOU KNOW, AND THE FLIES.

NO, NO, NO, NO.
THEN... THEN,

THEN MY UNCLE CAME AT HIM
WITH... WITH A BROKEN BOTTLE,
ONLY MY FATHER DUCKED

AND... AND MY UNCLE WENT
SAILING OUT THROUGH THE...

OUT THROUGH
THE... THE... THE WINDOW,

AND HE... HE MADE
THIS AWFUL SOUND

WHEN HE, UH, WHEN HE LANDED.

I DON'T THINK
YOU SHOULD THINK
ABOUT THIS, DAVEY.

MY FATHER IS AN AWFUL MAN,

A TERRIBLE MAN.

HE... HE GETS DRUNK
AND HE YELLS AND HE CUSSES.

AND, WELL, WELL,
THEY ALL YELL.

AND... AND IT... IT
GIVES ME HEADACHES.

I... I GET
THESE AWFUL HEADACHES.

AND WHEN I GET HEADACHES

I... I DON'T KNOW
WHAT I'M DOING,

AND THAT'S... THAT'S WHY
I HAD TO GET AWAY FROM 'EM.

THAT'S WHY... THAT'S WHY...

I KNOW
I'LL NEVER FORGET.

I'LL NEVER FORGET
WHAT HE DID TO SHIRLEY.

SHIRLEY?

WELL,
I... I HAD THIS PET HAMSTER
WHEN I WAS 9.

I DON'T THINK I WANT TO, UM,
TO HEAR ABOUT SHIRLEY, DAVEY.

I DON'T BLAME YOU.

I HATE HIM!
MY FATHER, I HATE HIM!

HATE! HATE! HATE!

DAVEY?

UH, DAVEY, I'M JUST CURIOUS.
I'M JUST CURIOUS.

NOW,
IT'S A VERY NASTY QUESTION
THAT I'M GONNA ASK YOU,

BUT, I'M JUST CURIOUS.

EVERYTHING THAT YOU'VE TOLD ME
ABOUT YOUR FATHER

AND WHEN YOU WERE A BOY
AND HOW HE, YOU KNOW,

HOW HE MADE YOU SO UNHAPPY

AND EVERYTHING
THAT WENT WRONG THERE

AND HOW AWFUL
IT ALL WAS, AND, UH...

WHY DID YOU KILL
THE LOMBARDIS?

I MEAN, I KNOW THIS IS...

I KNOW IT'S A TERRIBLE,
TERRIBLE QUESTION,

BUT WHY DIDN'T YOU...

THEM?

ARE YOU KIDDING?

IF MY FATHER EVER SAW ME
PICK UP A GUN, HE'D KILL ME.

WELL, I'LL, UH,
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, DAVEY.

UH, I'M GONNA...
I'M GONNA GO NOW,

I REALLY HAVE TO BE GOING.

YOU KNOW, IT WAS REALLY NICE
TALKING TO YOU, BUT,

I'LL JUST BE ON MY WAY
AND, UH, SEE YOU.

I'M SO SORRY,
I... I'M SO SORRY.

I AM SO SORRY ABOUT THAT, OK?

I'M JUST GONNA SAY
GOODBYE NOW,

AND, YOU KNOW,
I'LL BE ON MY WAY, OK?

DON'T MOVE, MRS. HARTMAN,

OR YOU'LL BE VERY SORRY.

JESSUP, THIS IS THE POLICE.

WE KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE.

WE WANT YOU TO SURRENDER.

THERE WILL BE NO DEAL.

COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP.

ALL RIGHT, JESSUP.
THIS IS THE POLICE.

THROW OUT YOUR GUN
AND COME OUT
WITH YOUR HANDS UP.

THEY AREN'T GONNA
HURT HIM, ARE THEY?

OH, HONEY,
LET'S JUST HOPE AND PRAY
THAT NOBODY GETS HURT.

I'D LIKE TO GET MY HANDS
ON THAT MANIAC.
I'D SHOW HIM "HURT."

WHY, WHAT... WHAT ARE YOU
DOING, OFFICER, HUH?

ARE YOU GONNA GET THEM
OUT OF THERE?

TAKE IT EASY, MR. HARTMAN.
GIVE THE KID
A CHANCE TO SURRENDER.

ALL RIGHT, JESSUP,
THIS IS THE POLICE.

LOOK, MY WIFE'S IN THERE.

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

THE KID'S
A TRIGGER-HAPPY PSYCHO.
SHH, SHH.

THE KID'S
A TRIGGER-HAPPY PSYCHO.

WE DON'T KNOW
WHAT TO EXPECT.

ALL RIGHT. WE SAW IT ON T.V.
AND CAME A-RUNNIN'.

IN YOUR CONDITION AND ALL.

WHAT CONDITION?

OH, ME AND CHARLIE

THIS TERRIBLE ORDEAL, HON.

LITTLE GIRL, PLEASE GET DOWN.

HEATHER,
FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE.

ALL RIGHT, JESSUP,
WE'RE WAITING,

THEY'RE NOT GONNA GET MARY OUT
THAT WAY. IT'S ALL MY FAULT.
I GOTTA DO SOMETHING, CHARLIE.

I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL, BUDDY,
BUT HOW COULD YOU TELL
THAT YOU WOULDN'T BE...

IF I HAD STAYED HOME,

SHE WOULDN'T BE DOING SUCH
A CRAZY THING, THAT'S ALL.
I SHOULD HAVE STAYED HOME.

WHERE WERE YOU
LAST NIGHT?

MAYBE I SHOULDN'T HAVE
ASKED YOU THAT.

OH, NO, TOM,
YOU... YOU... YOU WASN'T OUT
WITH THAT WOMAN

FROM THE PLANT, WEREN'T YOU?
HUH?

HEATHER, HEATHER, HEATHER,
GET DOWN FROM THERE.

I'M SORRY, BUT MARY

ON IT AND EVERYTHING.

TOM, YOU OUGHT TO BE
ASHAMED OF YOURSELF.

WHAT ARE YOU

UH, GEORGE,

OH, IT WAS NOTHING, MARTHA,
IT WAS JUST
ONE OF THOSE THINGS.

OH, HOW SWEET.

HEY, EVERYBODY!

2 TACOS, EXTRA SAUCE.

I COULD USE A COFFEE, BLACK.

HEY, MAKE THAT 2.

UH, FOLEY, WANT ANYTHING?

NO, I NEVER EAT
BEFORE A SHOOT-OUT.

OK, WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

HEY...

TOM! HI, WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?

I CAME... I CAME
TO GET YOU, MARY.

I'M GONNA TAKE YOU
HOME WITH ME.

UH, I COULD HAVE SHOT YOU
RIGHT THROUGH THE HEART.

THE ONLY REASON
I DIDN'T WAS

BECAUSE SHE ASKED ME
NOT TO.

I DID?

ISN'T THAT SWEET?

TOM, WHY DON'T YOU
JUST HAVE A SEAT?

WE WERE JUST HAVING
A NICE LITTLE CHAT.

AND I DON'T KNOW IF, UM,
YOU TWO KNOW EACH OTHER,

BUT, TOM,

THIS IS LITTLE DAVEY JESSUP.

AND DAVEY,
I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET
MY EX-HUSBAND, TOM.

EX?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, "EX"?

WHAT DO YOU WANT,
MR. HARTMAN?

I WANNA TALK TO MY WIFE.

I'M NOT HIS WIFE.
WE'RE JUST
VERY GOOD FRIENDS.

MARY, THAT'S WHAT
I WANNA TALK TO YOU ABOUT.

LOOK, I KNOW
YOU KNOW ABOUT MAE, OK?

WHO?
WHO?

THE MATCHBOOK COVER.
LORETTA TOLD ME.

TOM, I'M SORRY,
I REALLY DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

HE DOES THAT SOMETIMES.

UH, WE DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

LOOK, MARY, I-I-I'M SORRY.
I REALLY AM.

IT... I DIDN'T MEAN
FOR IT TO HAPPEN.

IT WAS JUST
ONE OF THOSE THINGS.

YOU KNOW,
I HAD A LOT OF THINGS
TO THINK OVER.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT.

YEAH, I UNDERSTAND THAT.

WHY COULDN'T HE
THINK THEM OVER
AT HOME?

HONEY, I NEEDED TO BE ALONE.
YOU UNDERSTAND.

WELL, WHY COULDN'T HE
THINK THEM OVER
AT HOME, THEN?

HE WAS ALONE AT HOME.

WHAT'D YOU DO?
YOU HAD TO GO AND MEET
THE MATCHBOOK COVER THERE?

UH, I'M GETTING A HEADACHE.

LOOK, I... I DIDN'T PLAN
TO MEET HER.

I DIDN'T, I DIDN'T
MAKE A DATE WITH HER
OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

SHE JUST HAPPENED
TO BE THERE.

WHERE?
IN THE BAR!

SO, YOU JUST HAPPENED
TO DO THIS, AND YOU JUST
HAPPENED TO DO THAT,

YOU JUST HAPPENED...
UH, MY, MY HEAD.

TOM, DO YOU HAVE
AN ASPIRIN ON YOU?

HONEY, LOOK, I CAN'T TALK
TO YOU HERE. I CAN'T!

WELL, THEN,
MAYBE YOU BETTER LEAVE.

I AM NOT LEAVING YOU HERE
WITH A HOMICIDAL MANIAC!

DON'T CALL ME THAT.

I'M FEELING FUNNY IN MY HEAD.
OH.

TOM, I KNOW THAT THIS
MAY NOT MEAN A LOT TO YOU.

BUT HE'S GETTING
A HEADACHE.

SO WHAT? I GOT
A LOT OF THINGS
TO TALK OVER WITH YOU!

I GOT A LOT OF THINGS
TO SAY TO YOU, MARY!

LOWER YOUR VOICE, TOM.

I WILL NOT LOWER MY VOICE!
YELLING LIKE MY FATHER.

YELLING LIKE YOUR FATHER?
UH, TOM, YOU'RE YELLING
LIKE HIS FATHER.

EVER SINCE I WAS 4...
YEAH, HE'S FEELING HE'S 4.

I DON'T CARE
HOW THE HELL OLD HE FEELS!
I'M GETTING DAMN MAD, MARY!

I WANT YOU TO LISTEN TO ME!
TOM, TOM.

YOU'VE GOT TO GET
OUT OF HERE. YOU'VE GOT TO...
STAY!

TOM, YOU HAVE GOT TO LEAVE.

I'LL EXPLAIN EVERYTHING
TO YOU LATER.

LOOK, I'M NOT
LEAVING HERE WITHOUT YOU!

TOM, YOU MUST
LEAVE WITHOUT ME.
I CAN TALK TO HIM.

I CAN MANAGE HIM.
OTHERWISE...

ARE YOU CRAZY?
ARE YOU CRAZY?

ARGUMENTS. I CAN'T STAND IT
WHEN PEOPLE ARGUE.

WHEN CHICKENS ARGUE.

HE CAN'T STAND IT
WHEN CHICKENS ARGUE!

WE'RE NOT ARGUING, DAVEY.

I'M SMILING, DAVEY.

AREN'T WE SMILING, TOM?

GOATS AND CHICKENS,
CHICKENS AND GOATS.

OF COURSE.

WE'RE SMILING, DAVEY.
DAVEY?

LOOK AT US, DAVEY.

WE'RE BOTH SMILING.

NOW CAN YOU
SMILE TOO, DAVEY?

I LIKE THAT.

I LIKE TO SEE PEOPLE SMILING.

KISS ME, TOM.

KISS YOU NOW?
YEAH.

GET OUT OF HERE
OR HE'LL KILL US.

I'M NOT LEAVING HERE

TOM, TRUST ME,
I CAN HANDLE THIS.

ARE YOU SURE?
I'M SURE.

OK.

HAVE YOU HAD YOUR SUPPER?

YEAH, THEY WENT OUT
FOR FOOD.
OH, GREAT.

YEAH. OK.

OH, IS HE GONNA GET IT
WHEN I GET HOME.

MY MOTHER USED TO SAY THAT.

OH, HE'S NOT GONNA GET IT.

DAVEY, WE HAVE GOT TO GET YOU
A GOOD INTERNIST.

HOLD IT RIGHT THERE.

UH, ALL RIGHT, UH, FAZIO,

I'M NOT THE ONE.

WATCH THE BRUTALITY,
WE'RE ON T.V., WILL YOU?

WHAT HAPPENED?
WHAT'S GOING ON IN THERE?

THAT'S MY SON-IN-LAW.

MRS. HARTMAN, IS SHE OK?

WHAT'S THAT?
TEAR GAS.

WHAT?
TEAR GAS.

WE'RE GONNA SMOKE 'EM OUT.

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.

UH, KRAVITZ, W-WILL SOMEBODY
CLEAR THAT LADY
OUT OF THE STREET, PLEASE?

THAT'S MY WIFE.

FAZIO, HE'S ONE OF OURS.

ALL RIGHT, FOLEY, LOAD UP.

WAIT A MINUTE, WAIT A MINUTE,
DON'T DO THAT.
YOU CAN'T DO THAT!

FAZIO, HE'S ONE OF OURS.

HE BROKE THE KEY.

THAT'LL COME OUT
OF YOUR POCKET, FAZIO.

YOU'RE THE ONE
WHO SUDDENLY WANTED
TO DO SOMETHING.

WELL, I WAS WRONG.
LOOK, HER ONLY CHANCE IS
FOR YOU GUYS TO GIVE IT UP

AND LET HER
TALK TO THE KID.

YOU MEAN,
YOU LEFT HER IN THERE
WITH THAT LUNATIC KILLER?

THAT'S THE ONLY CHANCE
SHE'S GOT, GEORGE.

SHE'S THE ONLY ONE
HE'LL LISTEN TO.

DON'T JUST STAND THERE,
DO SOMETHING, GEORGE.

YOU LEFT HER IN THERE
WITH THAT MASS MURDERER?

THAT'S HER ONLY CHANCE.

AFTER ALL, I WOULDN'T HAVE
DONE IT OTHERWISE.

ALL RIGHT,
HE WAS GONNA KILL HER.

KRAVITZ, FAZIO,
GET THOSE PEOPLE
OFF THE STREET, WILL YOU?

ALL RIGHT, FOLEY,
GET THE GAS.

UH, MR. HARTMAN, SIR,
YOU WERE JUST INSIDE
WITH THE CRAZED KILLER.

I WONDER IF WE COULD
HAVE A STATEMENT?

NO, DAMN IT,
NO STATEMENTS.

WE'RE TRYING TO INTERVIEW
THE HUSBAND OF MARY HARTMAN,

THE PLUCKY LITTLE LADY
WHO'S BEING HELD HOSTAGE
BY THE PSYCHOTIC MURDERER.

MR. HARTMAN, SIR,

NOW YOU WERE JUST INSIDE
THE HIDEOUT ALONG WITH
YOUR WIFE AND THAT KILLER.

NOW, I WONDER IF YOU COULD
DESCRIBE TO US
IN YOUR OWN WORDS...

LOOK, GET AWAY FROM ME,
WILL YOU? JUST GET AWAY!

UH, ONE QUESTION, MR. HARTMAN,
JUST ONE QUESTION, THEN.

HOW DOES IT FEEL TO KNOW
THAT YOUR WIFE MAY MEET
HER DEATH AT ANY MOMENT

AT THE HANDS OF
THAT MANIACAL MURDERER?

WELL, THERE IT IS, FOLKS.

THE UNSPEAKABLE AGONY
OF A MAN

WHOSE WIFE IS POSSIBLY
SECONDS AWAY FROM DEATH.

AND WE'LL BE HERE
TO BRING IT TO YOU LIVE,
AS IT HAPPENS.

I'M CLETE MIZENHEIMER...

I'M DETECTIVE JOHNSON.
