Murder Eleven Page #6

IN HIGH SCHOOL, AND [SIGHS]

BY THE TIME I WAS 19,

I HAD A $200-A-DAY HABIT,

AND THE ONLY THING

LEFT TO SELL WAS ME.

I'M SO SORRY.

SO AM I.

[ SIGHS ]

OKAY, I KNOW I'M NEW

TO HOMICIDE, BUT HEAR ME OUT.

NOW, IF WE WERE

DOPE DEALERS,

WE WOULD HAVE:

SEVERAL GUYS SET UP

AT MULTIPLE HOTELS

ACROSS THE CITY.

ONE PLACE GETS SHUT DOWN,

IT DOESN'T MATTER.

WE'RE STILL IN BUSINESS.

I DON'T FOLLOW.

WHAT IF OUR GUY HAS SET UP

MULTIPLE PROSTITUTES

AT SEVERAL HOTELS

ACROSS THE CITY?

HE WATCHES THEM, MAKES SURE

THEY FOLLOW ALL HIS RULES,

AND MAKES SURE:

WE'RE NOT AROUND.

RIGHT.

HE HAS A TON OF OPTIONS.

MAKES IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE

TO NARROW DOWN.

I WOULD SAY HIS PROFILE

DOESN'T FIT THOSE ACTIONS.

I WOULD SAY THAT MOS VIOLENT SERIAL KILLERS

FOCUS IN ON:

THEIR INDIVIDUAL TARGETS,

AND I WOULD SAY THA EVERY HOMICIDE COP AROUND

WOULD SAY YOU WERE WRONG.

OKAY.

BUT WHAT DO YOU SAY?

I THINK YOU:

JUST MAY BE RIGHT.

[ SIREN WAILING ]

I WAS JUS GIVING HER SOME WATER.

OW!

AAH!

DON'T EVER LIE TO ME.

OW!

YOU'RE HURTING ME.

YEAH?

[ WHIMPERS ]

YEAH, THAT'S WHAT YOU WANT,

ISN'T IT?

HUH?

YES.

YOU WANT TO FEEL

THE POWER OF EVIL?

YEAH.

YEAH, HURT ME

LIKE YOU WANT TO HURT HER.

YOU'RE NOTHING LIKE HER.

YOU NEVER WILL BE.

[ GROANS ]

[ EXHALES SHARPLY ]

YOU CAN LET HER GO.

IT'S YOUR CALL.

RICHARD, WAIT.

MM.

NO, UNTIE HER.

TAKE HER TO THE BUS STATION.

SEND HER HOME.

YOU TRUST HER,

AND I TRUST YOU.

BUT YOU KNOW THE DEAL.

I'M GOING TO BED.

SWEETHEART?

YEAH?

I TRUST YOU MORE.

WE'RE F***ED.

WHY?

OUR GIRL IN 115 IS TRYING

TO BOOK A DATE:

FOR TOMORROW NIGHT, OKAY?

SHE'S FOUND THIS GUY,

BUT HE WANTS TWO GIRLS,

AND ONE OF THEM NEEDS TO BE

A REDHEAD WITH FRECKLES.

AND SHE HAS TO FIND HER?

RIGHT.

SO, SHE LOGGED ONLINE

AND TRIED TO TRACK A FRIEND

WHO HAS -- WHO SUITS

THAT DESCRIPTION.

OKAY.

AND SHE FOUND THAT GIRL,

BUT THE GIRL:

RECENTLY POSTED ONLINE

THAT SHE HAD JUST ARRIVED A THE PLEASANTVILLE BUS STATION

A FEW HOURS AGO.

WORKING THE CORNERS

IN PLEASANTVILLE?

NO.

I THINK SHE'S BOOKED

A DATE WITH OUR GUY.

I LOOKED TO SEE WHA HE HAD WRITTEN ON 115'S WALL,

AND THEN I LOOKED TO SEE WHA HE WROTE ON THIS GIRL'S WALL,

AND IT IS SO SIMILAR,

IT HAS TO BE THE SAME GUY.

THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.

BUT THIS TIME, HE WROTE

WHAT CAR HE WOULD BE IN.

WHICH IS?

WHICH IS:

A BLACK FOUR-DOOR SEDAN.

OKAY. I'LL GET THAT DESCRIPTION

OUT TO OUR SURVEILLANCE UNITS.

I WANT YOU TO GE ON THE PHONE

AND TALK TO THE PEOPLE

OVER AT THAT BUS STATION.

FIND OUT IF THEY'VE GO ANY SECURITY VIDEO.

WHAT TIME DID SHE ARRIVE?

WELL, SHE LOGGED ONLINE

AT 7:
00 P.M.

HE'S HAD HER FOR HOURS.

OH, YEAH,

WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME,

IF ANY TIME AT ALL --

WE GOT TO GO.

SARGE, I NEED YOU

TO MOVE YOUR UNITS

OVER TO THE HOTELS

THAT BORDER PLEASANTVILLE

AND ALSO SEND A UNIT, CODE 3,

OVER TO THE BUS STATION.

THEY MAY HAVE:

SECURITY VIDEO.

[ STATIC CRACKLES ]

YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL ME

SOMETHING YOU DON'T BELIEVE.

[ Voice breaking ]

I KNOW.

WHAT MADE YOU:

CHANGE YOUR MIND?

OUR CHILDREN:

NEED THEIR FATHER.

AND I NEED MY HUSBAND.

I'M SO SORRY.

YOU CAN NEVER:

PUT ME IN A POSITION

LIKE THIS AGAIN.

WE HAVE TO BE BETTER

FOR OUR CHILDREN...

FOR OURSELVES.

I WILL BE.

I PROMISE YOU.

[ WHIMPERS ]

MAKE SURE:

SHE DOESN'T SUFFER, OKAY?

OF COURSE.

[ SNIFFLES ]

[ SIGHS ]

I AM SO SORRY.

[ SNIFFLES ]

MAY GOD HAVE MERCY

ON OUR SOULS.

YEP.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

OKAY.

HERE'S WHAT THEY HAVE.

SO, THEY SEE HER

GETTING OFF THE BUS

AND WAITING 15 MINUTES

AT THE FRONT OF THE TERMINAL.

THEN THEY SEE HER ON A PAY PHONE

FOR LESS THAN A MINUTE.

SHE THEN WALKS:

ACROSS THE STREET TO THE STORE.

IN THE STORE, WE SEE HER

BUYING SOME CIGARETTES,

AND THEN WHEN SHE EXITS,

INSTEAD OF WALKING

TOWARDS THE BUS STATION,

SHE WALKS AROUND THE CORNER

TO THE BACK ALLEY OF THE STORE.

OKAY.

I WANT YOU TO CALL

THE PHONE COMPANY

AND HAVE THEM PULL

ALL INCOMING CALLS

TO THAT PAY PHONE.

OKAY, YOU MEAN OUTGOING.

I MEAN INCOMING.

HE CALLED HER,

TOLD HER TO CROSS THE STREE SO HE COULD SPOT SURVEILLANCE.

THE SON OF A B*TCH KNEW

THERE WERE CAMERAS

IN BOTH PLACES.

MULTIPLE GIRLS,

MULTIPLE LOCATIONS,

MULTIPLE PRECAUTIONS.

THIS GUY IS SMART,

PATIENT, AND METHODICAL.

YEAH, HE WORKS EVERY ANGLE.

HE'S TOO SMART.

YEAH, BUT WHA DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?

HE KNOWS TOO MUCH ABOU HOW WE DO OUR JOB

AND HOW TO KEEP US

GUESSING.

LIKE HOW HE KILLS THEM

DIFFERENT WAYS.

AND DISPOSES OF THE BODIES

IN DIFFERENT WAYS.

HE STABS A FEW.

HE STRANGLES A FEW.

HE BURNS A FEW.

HE DROWNS A FEW IN THE OCEAN.

ALL OF THIS JUST STOPS US

MAKING A PROFILE ON HIM.

AND TO MAKE IT APPEAR

THAT THERE ARE MULTIPLE KILLERS.

I HATE TO SAY IT, BUT...

SOUNDS LIKE HE'S A COP.

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

YEP?

OKAY. GOOD.

AND YOU'RE SURE

IT'S THE SAME GUY?

YEAH.

YEAH, WE'LL MAKE SURE

YOU GET YOUR REWARD.

GOOD. STAND BY.

OKAY, HE JUST POSTED

ON HER WALL.

IT'S THE SAME ONE?

"BE READY IN 15 MINUTES."

SHE STILL WILLING

TO GET IN THE CAR WITH HIM?

YEP.

ALL RIGHT, NOW,

HE'S ALREADY HAD ONE WOMAN.

WHY'S HE GOING AFTER

THIS ONE?

MAYBE HE'S RAISING

THE STAKES.

MAYBE...

TWO GIRLS IN ONE NIGHT?

MAYBE WE'RE JUS WAY OFF THE MARK.

[ WHIMPERING ]

SAMANTHA?

[ WHIMPERING STOPS ]

PLEASE STAY.

I NEED YOU TO STAY.

[ Voice breaking ]

WHY?

I CAN'T DO IT ALONE.

I CAN'T STAY DOWN HERE

AND WATCH YOU KILL HER.

I'M ASKING YOU TO COME OVER HERE

AND HELP ME KILL HER.

[ WHIMPERS ]

NO!

I NEED YOU:

TO COME OVER HERE,

STAND BY MY SIDE,

AND SEE THIS TO THE END.

YOU'VE DONE THIS

BY YOURSELF BEFORE.

WHY DO YOU NEED ME NOW?

TONIGHT CHANGED EVERYTHING.

I CAN'T DO IT ALONE.

I NEED MY WIFE.

[ WHIMPERING ]

[ SOBBING ]

I NEVER THOUGHT I COULD

LOVE SOMEBODY THIS MUCH.

[ SNIFFLES ]

BUT I DO.

I'VE GOT TO WARN YOU.

THERE IS SOMETHING

EXTREMELY POWERFUL

ABOUT TAKING A HUMAN LIFE.

I KNOW. I CAN FEEL IT.

[ MUFFLED SCREAM ]

[ GASPS ]

[ WHIMPERING CONTINUES ]

IT'S BEEN 20 MINUTES.

I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED

IF HE'S ACROSS

THE STREET RIGHT NOW,

JUST SITTING AND WATCHING.

IT'S NOT A BLACK SEDAN,

BUT IT'S BLACK.

COULD HAVE:

MORE THAN ONE VEHICLE.

SH*T.

THIS COULD BE OUR GUY.

I KNOW THIS GUY.

REALLY?

HE DID TIME FOR:

THE VIOLENT RAPE AND ASSAUL OF A PROSTITUTE

A FEW YEARS AGO.

I INTERVIEWED HIM

AFTER MURDER THREE,

BUT HE HAD:

AN AIRTIGHT ALIBI.

MAYBE HE'S WORKING

WITH A PARTNER.

BREAK OUR SURVEILLANCE UNITS

AND SEND THEM THIS WAY, ASAP.

[ STATIC CRACKLES ]

ALL SURVEILLANCE UNITS.
