Consenting Adults Page #5

Or is it pretty much

a moot point?

- Hello.

- I got your message.

Didn't I tell you not to go

to Charleston, Richard?

Why didn't he kill the real Kay?

It would have been a lot easier.

Maybe they were partners in it.

Maybe he liked her too much.

- But I don't...

- Maybe they're still in touch.

- It's a possibility, I guess.

- It's my last possibility.

- Hey. Sam. How are ya?

- Oh. I'm just fine.

Honey. Don't squeeze

the bread like that.

These are so special.

Mom. Please.

I really want that.

- Hello. Hi. Eddy.

- Priscilla, hi.

- Did you get the samples?

- Yeah. I got them. I'm on my way.

- Want to go out to dinner tonight?

- No. I think we should stay in.

Lori goes back in a few days and. Uh.

she seems a bit upset lately.

So it'd be great if we could. Uh. You know.

spend the night in the house.

- All right. I'll see you in a little while.

- Love you.

Okay. Bye-bye.

Rape!

Richard! Go away!

- Leave me alone. Please!

- Priscilla!

- No!

- Listen to me!

Don't...

Don't hurt me. Please!

I'm not gonna hurt you.

- L...

- I want you to play this for Eddy.

It's Kay. She's alive.

It was another one

of Eddy's scams.

This one was for

a million and a half.

Oh. Richard. Oh.

Just play the tape...

for Eddy tonight.

- May I go now?

- You'll play it?

I'll play the tape.

How's Lori?

Can I see her?

Please? Please!

Priscilla?

Where are you staying?

The Carolina Motel.

For how long?

That depends.

Be careful.

Don't put no headstone

on my grave

All my life

I've been a slave

Now tell my mother

not to cry

I'll see her

in the by-and-by

Tell her that

I'm finally free

From all the trouble

you've caused me

Don't put no headstone

On my grave

All my life

I've been a slave

Just put me down

and let me be

Free from all

This misery

I'm sorry.

That sounded

so much like Kay.

It really got to me.

Where did you find that?

I got it in the mail.

It's from Richard.

I got it in the mail.

Oh. That poor. Sick bastard.

What's he trying

to do to us?

He finds some girl

that sounds like Kay.

He records it

and sends it here.

You think you've

started a life...

and you hear something like this

and it just brings it all back!

I'm sorry.

- You got anything?

- Got. Uh. Three Memphis.

- I got a Memphis. Savannahs.

- Savannah here.

- Atlantic City. New York. Chicago.

- Another Savannah.

Savannah. Savannah. Savannah.

Four Savannahs.

The same day that Eddy

heard the tape. Same number.

- Great. Let's give it a call.

- 912-555-3722.

- Here. Give it a try.

- No. You do it. You do it.

- Just ask for Olivia Kamen.

- Scoville Hotel.

- Hello? Hello?

- Hello. Scoville Hotel.

- Can I help you?

- Yeah. Scoville Hotel.

Uh. Can you give me

Olivia Kamen's room?

- Who?

- That's K-a-m-e-n.

One moment.

- What?

- They're ringing her room.

She's there.

- What can I do for you?

- I'm looking for an Olivia Kamen.

- She's down at the Dominion Cafe.

- Where's that?

It's a joint on

East Broad and Bay.

- Could you walk it from here?

- No. But you could.

Once my cup

was overflowing

And I gave

nothin'in return

Now I can't

begin to tell you

What a lesson

What a lesson

I learned

Looking back

Over my deeds

I can see signs

A wise man heeds

But I know

Yes, I know

I'll never

make that same

Mistake again

But I know

Yes, I know

I'll never

make that same

Mistake again

You can't go in there.

Where is she?

Olivia Kamen? Where is she?

- She's gone.

- Olivia Kamen. Which room?

All the way to the top

on the roof.

- I didn't know! I swear...

- Don't lie to me!

I swear. That night

after we played baseball...

he told me to go up to the lake

to Watkins Lodge...

and stay out of sight.

You drove the Mercedes

with the cigarette boat.

The next morning.

he shows up on his motorbike.

We go out on the lake...

and he tells me everything.

And then he said

if I told anyone...

he'd say I'd known all along.

Then I went to Canada.

and I tried to forget...

what I did to you.

Yes?

There's a David Duttonville

downstairs.

He... He wants

to see you alone.

- Hi.

- Hi.

How was Atlanta?

I missed you.

Looks like somebody in your

family's been travelling.

One. Two. Three.

four shirts. One suit.

Tuesday?

And you're sure

it was Richard?

The deskman said he saw him

go upstairs with Miss Kamen.

There were fingerprints

all over the place.

The Savannah police think that by now

there's a good chance

he may have left Savannah.

- Do you want us to put

some men up by the house?

- No. I have a 24-hour guard.

- We have very tight security.

- Do you mind if we just

check around your property...

- To make sure you're adequately

protected?

- No. I'd appreciate that.

- Eddy? Before you come up...

- Yeah?

will you grab my purse. Please?

It's next to the telephone.

Sure.

Thank you.

Hello?

Yes. It is.

What? Now?

Well. It's a little...

All right. Tell him

I'll be over.

Yeah. Five minutes.

Yeah. Okay.

The police are over at the clinic.

They want me to come by.

How are you?

Fine.

You've been through

a lot today.

Don't worry.

I won't be long.

I'm not gonna leave you.

Oh. God.

Did you know that I can

see things. Priscilla?

I can see things nobody can.

I'm so good...

at predicting...

that I can read

tomorrow's headline.

"A man last night broke into

the home of his ex-wife...

"and killed for the third

and last time.

"Arriving tragically too late...

"Eddy Otis. The woman's...

the dead woman's friend...

"shot and killed him.

"The man. Richard Parker.

was already wanted...

in connection

with several other..."

Oh. Yes. He's here.

Priscilla. He's in the house

right now. Wondering...

when he should make

his final move.

Why?

Because I wanted him to.

He's my puppet.

Here he comes.

Come on. Richard.

Come to papa.

Here we are with

the WKPJ traffic news.

Good news for all you happy

commuters wending your way home.

Traffic is flowing smoothly

on all major arteries.

In other news today, an Atlanta court

threw out all charges

against Richard Parker...

in the murder case that shocked

the city earlier this year.

Parker, the court concluded, was set up

by his neighbour, Eddy Otis...

in what veteran insurance investigator

David Duttonville...

called one of the most diabolical

life insurance scams on record.

When asked about his future plans,

Mr Parker said he intends...
