A Kind of Murder Page #5
now that you know.
I wanted to tell you.
He might have some
fantastical story.
He won't need to use
too much imagination.
- I didn't do anything.
- So you keep saying.
What's the next revelation
gonna be, Mr. Stackhouse?
I'm just watching you
digging your grave
and it's getting
deeper and deeper.
If you wanna press charges,
feel free.
This young man
wants to change his statement.
You f***ed up trying
to blackmail Stackhouse
with that order slip,
didn't you?
Big mistake.
I don't know
what you're getting at.
You get nailed.
I'm getting closer
and you know it.
He gets away with murder.
That's what I'm getting at.
You gotta face it.
He's got the cute blonde
to replace his wife.
His smart friends,
his neighbors.
Oh, yeah.
And he's stinking rich.
As for you Kimmel...
Well...
The luck is just not
on your side now, is it?
I couldn't care less
about Stackhouse.
Amazing, though, isn't it?
Looks like he can actually
get away with it.
Scott free.
I told you I don't care.
But...
Could be death row for you
while he's out there,
living the good life.
You're not gonna
get away with it.
Stackhouse
is your problem, Kimmel.
Back on the bus in 15 minutes.
- Helen!
- Marty!
What the hell
are you doing here?
I got something for you.
You drive here at night...
Without... who the hell
do you think you are?
I told you to throw
that ugly jacket out.
My friends think
you look like a hobo.
I can never ask...
If you divorce me...
Then I will kill myself.
Do what you want.
It's your life.
Go right ahead.
Go.
I've got a Jackson
following Stackhouse.
Kimmel's taken
the bait, all right.
Let's stick with him.
He's lost control.
What do you think he's gonna do?
I don't know.
But I know what I hope
he's gonna do.
Why didn't Stackhouse
take a cab?
Where the f*** is he going?
I don't care. As long as
I have a ringside seat.
Aaargh!
Stackhouse! You blunderer!
I did it.
Police! Drop it!
- Jesus Christ.
- What a mess.
I have this fantasy.
I have this...
I have this fantasy.
That she's no longer there.
I haven't done anything.
I didn't set out
to tell such stupid lies.
I wanted to see if he
looked like a man
who murdered his wife.
Wishing someone dead.
It's fascinating.
I haven't done anything wrong.
We're all guilty of something.
I'm a writer.
I write stories.
