Johnny Frank Garrett's Last Word Page #4

---

- The psychic lied to me.

Johnny Garrett was not

a rapist or a killer.

What?

You're flopping around

like a fish.

You're mumbling too.

I could sleep on the couch.

No, stay here.

Seems like such a shame to let

all that energy go to waste.

Baby, stop, stop.

I got to tell you something.

What is it?

I saw a man die today.

You what?

I saw a man die today.

I didn't... I didn't want

to say anything,

because I didn't want

Sam to hear before.

And then, I don't know.

I was just...

I was just trying to

block it from my mind.

You want to talk about it?

I think it's got something

to do with Johnny frank Garrett.

Adam, you don't really

think that's true.

What was that?

I don't know.

Sam? Sam?

Sam?

A degenerative heart condition?

What does that mean?

He was most likely born with it.

But Sam's a healthy kid.

It just didn't

present itself until now.

I've made a few phone calls.

I'd like to get more

opinions on how to proceed.

But you can fix it?

We can stabilize him.

Make sure he doesn't put any

more strain on the ventricles.

But in the next 24 hours

there's a high possibility

of cardiac failure.

Cardiac failure?

He's 10.

My son is 10 years old.

This doesn't happen

to 10-year-olds.

Like I said, I have some

very knowledgeable colleagues

I'm excited to consult with.

More knowledgeable than you?

Mrs. Redman,

the good news is

we're no longer flying

under the radar.

Let's just be thankful for that.

Thank you, doctor.

I got the same blood type

as my son.

Doctor said it might help.

Uh-huh.

You a fainter?

No, ma'am.

I'm just not a fan of needles.

Uh-huh.

Now, this is gonna

be a piece of cake.

Didn't even feel it, did you?

No, no, no. You're...

You're good.

I know.

That's the worst of it.

Why don't you take a nap?

Burn in hell, freak.

Burn in hell, freak.

Burn in hell, freak.

Burn in hell, freak!

Hey! Whoa!

Burn in hell, freak.

Burn in... Hell...

I know what to do.

Mr. hill?

I apologize for disturbing you,

but my son, he's very sick.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that,

Mr....?

Redman. Adam Redman.

I was on the

Johnny frank Garrett jury.

And now, as I said,

my son is very sick.

Well, that's a shame.

You did Amarillo

a great service.

I'm sorry to hear you're

having a rough go of it.

A lot of people

are having a rough go of it.

But I know how we can stop it.

Johnny Garrett

didn't get a fair shake.

You want him to get

a fair shake?

It's done, son.

You understand?

The bastard's dead.

No. A part of him isn't.

Now, look, I'm the last person

to believe in that

sort of thing, I really am.

I work hard.

I take care of my family.

That is what I believe in.

But this is happening.

He's doing this because

he wants people to know.

To know what?

The church. The fingerprints.

The things you didn't tell us.

The truth. We clear his name,

the curse will break.

And my son will get better.

Yeah, see, I understand

what you're saying, boy.

Remember, you was...

You was trying your best.

Hell, we were all

trying our best.

You can believe that.

You know what?

Why don't we all go take a walk?

Let's just take

a nice little walk.

Let's get this

whole mess sorted out.

You like that?

Ain't no curse, boy.

It's just bad luck.

It's not always

about work and family.

Sometimes you just got to make

yourself good with god.

Then maybe someday

your luck will change.

I'm sorry about your son.

I'm sorry.

I need to see father Colvin.

He's in Tulsa.

Left this morning.

I need his help to get

Danny hill to come forward

and tell the truth

about the Johnny Garrett trial.

I know who you are

and what you're doing here,

Mr. Redman.

Would you mind coming with me?

Rafael Chago.

He's in prison now.

In Mcalester, Oklahoma.

He was convicted

five years after Johnny.

He used to live in Amarillo.

This guy, he raped

and killed old women.

I saw him that night,

that Halloween night,

creeping outside by the window.

I told the police.

They brought him in,

but they didn't have

any evidence.

No fingerprints.

With Johnny,

they had fingerprints.

Yeah, but this is the same m.O.

It's the same everything.

Danny hill just wanted

a conviction.

I doubt he'll be willing

to admit that.

Yeah, but with this guy,

I'm gonna make sure he does.

Johnny's soul wants justice.

The book of Ephesians says,

"have nothing to do

with darkness,

but instead expose it

to the light."

There's just one problem.

That thing that has a hold

of Johnny now, of his soul,

it will prefer

to remain in darkness.

Look, I know it doesn't

make any sense.

I don't care about

Johnny frank Garrett.

I care about Sam.

That's it.

Our son is dying.

He needs his father.

I need my husband.

And I'm trying to tell you,

that's why this is happening.

And I might know how to stop it.

We got less than 48 hours here.

I'm just asking you to trust me.

And I'm sorry

you don't understand this.

Maybe when it's all over

you will.

Adam.

Adam!

Adam!

I want you to have this.

Take it.

What's the matter with you?

We're good people here.

Good, god-fearing people.

We look after each other

and we look after our community.

Would you like us to pray again?

Let's not forget, pal,

he was spotted in front

of the convent

the evening of the murder,

and that ain't backwards.

We look after our community.

And when that is threatened,

we do something about it.

Rotten grandparents' souls,

and your stinking,

worm-infested

maggot-ridden ancestors,

clean back

to the damnable b*tch dog

that began your b*tch line.

I curse every adult,

every person

that's born after my death

that is remotely related

to your pitch-infested blood.

And I will be there

to meet you all.

Damning your souls

to the deepest depths of hell.

I didn't do nothing wrong.

I have a big family in Cuba.

I am a family man,

and I am with god.

Oh, yeah, I believe you.

That you got a family.

I also believe

that you got a thing

for raping and killing

old women.

No.

My friend Jorge,

he brags about this.

He tells me he fucks them.

And they like it.

They like choking their neck.

They're so old.

They've forgotten

they can be sinful.

He makes them to remember.

That guy in your dreams?

Crazy guy? Long hair?

Big beard?

How do you know this man?

His name is

Johnny frank Garrett.

He was executed

for the rape and killing

of sister Tadea Benz,

in Amarillo.

But you already know that.

Before he died,

something got into him.

Into his soul.

The same thing that's coming

after you right now.

The dreams?

Well, they're just

the beginning.

I do nothing wrong.

I can stop it.

The dreams,

the sickness, the death.

But you got to confess.

Admit what you did,

so I can clear

Johnny Garrett's name.

He will have mercy on my soul.

It's not god

you have to worry about.

See, when you piss off god,

he doesn't come

after your whole family.

Johnny Garrett will.

You understand what I'm saying?

Give me Danny hill.

Can I tell him who's calling?
