In the Palm of Your Hand Page #7

That time I was the one who

humiliated herself going to your house.

This time you are the one

who had to come to mine.

That time you were the

cat playing with the mouse.

This time you are the mouse.

Ok?

You've won Ada.

I congratulate you

again for your victory.

It's a wonderful show,

and I am very curious

to see how will you end it.

Very simple.

Take this Karin.

I don't understand!

It's $5,000; Your fee for last night.

For your inconvenience when

futilely knocking at my door.

And if I didn't accepted it, considering

insignificant what happened last night?

Comparing it to this

excesive amount of money.

That's your problem.

Believe me, it's all I can offer to

the man who killed my nephew...

and who I can accuse by

calling the police right now!

Stupid!

Conceited stupid!

Don't get smart on me!

Go on! Call the police!

And tell them that you, Ada Romano,

your husband's killer,

lent me your cabin to

bury Leon Romano's body.

Tell them that Leon is buried 10 steps

from the entrance's stairway.

That's where I buried him!

Tell them!

That's what you did?

You didn't throw him down the waterfall?

You made me an accessory

to manslaughter Karin.

I should have known!

That was a great move!

Your words are always true.

You and I are written

in our destinies.

It could have been avoided.

But nothing matters now.

From now on I'll live

up to that destiny.

Don't doubt this.

We'll go down...

but we'll do it together,

do you understand?

And so, the property of Vittorio Romano...

be it realstate, furniture,

money, banking accounts...

will now belong to Mrs. Ada

Cisneros Vda. De Romano.

Giving 1/5 of it to Mr. Leon Romano

the decedent's nephew.

And so both heirs should stamp

their signatures in this document.

Please, Mrs. Romano?

Ok, everything is legal now.

You only need Leon'e signature.

Leon has to sign?

That's a prerequisite.

It's the only way

to get the inheritance.

Didn't you heard both

of you are the sole beneficiaries?

Yes but...

But I don't understand these things and

don't have an idea of Leon's whereabouts.

Then it's necessary to bring him.

How? It's not the first time

he disappears without notice!

Just suppose he is in another country

and he will not come

back for months or a year.

Or just that he doesn't

want to come back to fix things.

He is so original that maybe

he will never try to take care of this.

Not even think it!

We will have to litigate this...

with one of those

trials that last a lifetime!

We have to bring

Leon back at any cost!

Dead or alive!

Like the police posters say.

Karin!

Karin, wait!

Now what?

Listen to me please!

You cannot leave me alone now!

Everything would

have been in vain!

Besides, you'll loose a fortune!

May I know what your plan is?

Dig him up...

leave him somewhere

for the police to find him.

That's funny...

now you use the impersonal.

Dig him... leave him...

And who will do that?

Me?

Without help?

You wouldn't ask

me to help you, Karin?

That would be too much for me!

I couldn't resist it!

I'm sorry, it's very late.

I have to go.

Wait!

It shall be as you wish.

We'll dig him up together.

Slow down, Karin!

Please slow down!

Dammit!

Bad luck, friend?

At least it was a rear tire.

If it had been a front tire with

these curves you could had rollover.

And we wouldn't

be talking about it.

Let me help you.

No, thank you.

Don't bother. I can do it.

Don't worry, it

doesn't bother me.

It won't take long.

Don't use the car jack yet.

Get the spare tire first.

What about the spare?

You don't know about

these things, isn't it?

Let me see... I'll take it out.

What happened, ma'am?

I hurt myself trying to move the

motorcycle to get you more light!

Help me please!

I can't stand!

Please, take me to the car.

Wait! Let me rest a little bit

before I climb in.

I think I sprained my ankle!

I'm better now.

Please help me get inside.

- Thank you very much!

- You are welcome, ma'am.

Ok!

Open the trunk for the tire.

Please, put it in the rear seat.

I have to get it fixed

in the next gas station.

Thank you very much.

Sorry for the inconvinience.

At your service, sir.

"LEON ROMANO'S CORPSE

FOUND TEARED UP BY TRAIN"

At your service.

May I first talk to my lawyer?

You may.

Hello?

It's Ada Romano.

Aren't you Mr. Montes?

Will you give him a message?

Thank you.

It's urgent!

Tell him they are taking me

right now to the police station.

Tell him to meet

me there immediately.

Thank you!

Professor Karin?

Please, come with us.

- What's this about?

- Our orders are to take you to the station.

Let's go!

Professor Karin!

You are forgetting

you paper again!

Thank you!

Dona Carmelita...

Your son sent you this money.

He says he'll write soon.

Clara!

Sit over there!

"MORGUE"

Could you give me a cigarette?

Is that all?

Unfortunately no, ma'am.

There is some paper

work that has to be done.

It won't take long.

We need some information

about your nephew.

Please, walk this way.

Come this way, Mr. Karin.

Please come inside.

I understand that

this may be uncomfortable.

But you have to identify

the body before you make your statement.

No!

I don't want to see that body!

I don't want to!

You'll have to do it!

It's the law.

I couldn't stand it!

It'll be too much for me!

I'll confess everything with details!

But let's end this torture!

I killed him!

I killed Leon Romano!

Come this way.

We'll take your confession.

- I told you this was all routine!

- But it's so annoying to deal with these people...

Mrs. Romano!

Now what!

You are going to continue bothering me!

Mrs. Romano, you

are under arrest!

Ada Romano and I placed the

body on the railroad tracks...

to get rid of the evidence.

Ada was with me all the time.

Please sign here.

You still have

to identify the body.

I don't know why you insist!

I've told you everything!

You have to do it! Let's go!

"We'll go down,

but we'll do it together."

"You and I are written in

our destinies."

In all these years I've

never seen a perfect crime!

This one nearly was...

if it wasn't because you, Jaime Karin,

got confused at the last moment.

Please come this way.

This is the body we

wanted you to identify.

Clara!

Clara...

among all the people

who could forgive me...

you are the only one capable

of doing it, besides God.

She leaved this for you

before killing herself.

"It's a way of loving

you for the last time."

"I couldn't survive

the loss of our truth."

"My heart lose that truth

you were for many years."

"Listen to this words as if I

told them from the other side of life."

"Where it's not

longer possible to live."

"When expiation returns us the truth..."

"then doubt not that

in spite of death..."

"we will meet again

somewhere, sometime."

"But, we will certainly meet again."

"He that seeketh findeth."

"we will meet again

somewhere, sometime."

"But, we will certainly meet again."

"He that seeketh findeth."
