Phantom Lady Page #6

- No!

Then I knew they'd arrest me.

I couldn't let them do that!

When you're born with my gifts, you

can't let them get in your way.

So I followed Scott.

I saw him with that woman.

She slipped away from me,

and I had to bribe the others.

They say I took the boat that night,

but I didn't.

I went aboard, but I left

before she sailed.

SS Vulcania. August 2nd.

8:
30 PM. That idiot!

I flew to Havana and I caught

the boat there.

He never thought of that!

That was too clever for him.

Scott.

How could you?

I'm fond of Scott. We're friends!

But what's his life compared to mine?

A mediocre engineer working in sewers,

drainpipes, faucets!

What's any life compared to mine?

I asked you not to interfere,

but you wouldn't listen.

It could be so easy...

No one will question me.

Say it's just another suicide.

This won't help you, don't you see!

After me, there will be others!

On and on until they catch you!

I won't be the last!

There will be others after me!

You can't help yourself because

you're mad, mad, mad!

Yes, you're insane!

Hello?

Hello?

Burgess!

Burgess!

Burgess!

Burgess! It's Jack!

He killed her!

Good morning, Mary.

- Good morning, Miss Richman.

Good morning.

- Good morning, Carol.

Hello, Kansas!

Well, how do we like the new office?

Not bad!

9:
30 already. I've got to rush!

Seeing Kepler about the chemical plant.

- When will you be back?

It might take all day.

If I'm not back by 6, don't wait.

I left instructions on the Dictaphone.

You'll take care of them for me,

won't you?

Bye, Kansas.

So long, Burgess.

- Bye, Henderson.

Quite his old self again, isn't he?

- Yes.

He owes you a great deal, Carol.

I did it because I wanted to.

Will I have to appear at the

investigation tomorrow?

No, it's a formality.

The evidence shows that Marlow fell

while attempting to escape.

I have to go. I have to be at court

at 10 o'clock.

Goodbye, Carol.

- Goodbye, Burgess.

Renew my membership to the Architects

and Engineers Association and...

call Mason at the contractors' and make

an appointment for tomorrow morning.

No, don't hang up!

You're having dinner with me tonight...

tomorrow night... and the next night...

and then... every night...

every night!

Every night, every night!
