WOMAN:

Mike?

The Woman strips off the overcoat -- under which she'sbreathtakingly naked, save for a garter belt andstockings. She drapes the coat over the nearest chair.

WOMAN:

I'm feeling really nasty right

now.

Burnett is first to appear from the bedroom -- and hisexpression goes off the charts. Startled, the woman

shrugs back into her coat.

WOMAN:

Who the hell are you?

Burnett charges her, instantly ushering her to the door.

BURNETT:

How did you get in here?

Julie and Lowrey return from the bedroom.

WOMAN:

I have a key. But, Mike...

BURNETT:

(whispers)

Maybe you should call first next

time. What's your name?

WOMAN:

Yvette!

BURNETT:

You don't quit stalking me,

Yvette, I'm gonna place your ass

under arrest! -- 'Bye!

Burnett slams the door. She's SCREAMING on the other

side, POUNDING the door with her fists, and cursing inmad Spanish. Finally she stomps off down the hall.

LOWREY:

'The hell's going on out here??

JULIE:

She turns and exits back into the bedroom. Burnett's

about to follow when Lowrey swings him outside the doorway

and gets into his face.

BURNETT:

Yeah, well this case is messin'

with mine, too.

until Burnett leans over...
