Q Page #7

meeting our something.

- Maybe another victim.

- Okay, hold your position.

I'll notify Powell and get

right over there to the museum.

Is Shepard coming?

No, no, Shepard's staying

right here in the tower.

He thinks the f***ing thing

is coming back.

Okay. Hurry up.

All right, Mr. magic,

that's the man with the bag.

What do you say we nail him?

I found out he was

a medical student at Columbia.

I knew he had to have

some scalpels around.

Pick up your money.

Let's go.

- How much did you make?

- Not much.

Bird must've been bad

for business.

Attention all units,

suspect and possible victim

heading South.

Yellow cab,

New York, 6-7-George-4-1-Frank.

Continue surveillance.

It's by one of those

God damn lofts down there.

What the hell are waiting for?

Catch him in the act?

This is a farce. There ain't no

way we're gonna get a conviction.

All they're gonna do is throw him in

the looney bin along with his victim.

- I know. I know.

- Who the hell is gonna believe

a ritual sacrificial murder

in 1982.

Who the hell is gonna believe

a cop in that get up?

What the hell is the statue

of liberty doing up there?

Yeah, it's the original model

they used to build the statue.

The liberty warehouse bought it

and put it up there.

How do you feel?

It's cold.

The lights will warm you up

in a bit.

That pal and the kid must be up

on the roof by now.

Let's go.

I am the plume serpent.

I crawl and I fly.

Drop that scalpel.

Leave him alone!

Let us finish in peace!

Get out!

He was coming from me.

He was coming from me.

He's heading up to that statue!

Listen, know that all the doors of the

roof tops are locked from the inside.

That means we got him

trapped up here.

Check the other end.

Damn kite.

Okay, okay, so they trashed you!

Why trash up

the whole apartment?

How do you like

that a**hole lawyer?

He's sending them

their money back!

No f***ing loyalty!

Well, maybe you're better off

by forgetting the whole thing!

I mean, those two extra bodies

up there.

That got talked about in court.

They press charges against you. They

say you killed those two on purpose.

Then you're on their side, huh?

Huh?

If you're through smashing up

this place,

why don't you take a walk!

Huh?

I'm sure there's a park bench

out there somewhere

that it's going to fit you!

You mean that?

Yeah. I always thought,

"well what the hell?

"This guy hurts so bad.

He's been kick around so much

that you can forgive him

almost for anything."

But I saw you, Quinn. When you

thought you had some power

and it wasn't pretty.

And I don't want

to share in that!

So you just take a walk!

Okay, fine.

I'll send for my things.

And if you can't wait,

throw them in

the f***ing incinerator.

All right, it's coming back.

Load tracer ammunition.

I want to see the trajectory.

Get those guys into the basket!

Look at the size of thing.

Told you, didn't I?

- Feel like saying a prayer?

- Yeah.

Let her have it!

Come on,

feel like climbing, huh?

- Not exactly.

- Ah, come on.

Well, if shooting

doesn't kill it,

I just might start

praying to it myself.

Give me another magazine

up here!

Shepard!

Shepard!

Don't!

We got that damn thing.

Shep, we did it!

We did it!

Okay, everybody hold

your positions!

Everybody stay

right where you are, all right?

Don't move.

- Big.

- Yes.

I saved you all.

I saved the whole f***ing city.

And what do I get for it, huh?

Don't move, Mr. Quinn.

Don't turn around.

What are you doing?

It was meant

that we should meet.

Unit, check out the hotels

on 8th Avenue.

You guys, across the street.

I'll go up here. Put Quinn

under protective custody.

You are the betrayer. And now

you must humble yourself.

What? What did I betray?

You must give yourself

to receive forgiveness.

No, I understand.

I understand.

You must make flesh holy,

so it is good as a sacrifice.

I understand.

I understand.

- I f***ed up all my life.

- Shh!

With your sacrifice

and the sacrifice of the others,

the plumed serpent

will rise again.

A serpent?

A plumed serpent?

What? Do you mean

that f***ing bird?

But if you say

the prayer with me,

you will have salvation.

Piss-- piss on your prayer.

I ain't saying

any God damn prayers.

I never did.

I never will.

F***ing priest told me

to say my prayers.

I didn't say my f***ing prayers.

Cops tell me to say my prayers.

I'm not saying my prayers.

And I ain't saying your prayers.

I've eaten sh*t from you.

I've eaten sh*t from city hall!

Do it!

Look, I cannot do it

until you say the prayer.

I'm not saying sh*t for you.

Hope you had your tetanus shots.

How did you find me?

We've been searching every flea

bag hotel in town for hours.

Ever since--

this guy does not die easily.

I figured

our fanatic friend here

might look you up

to get you to repent your sins.

Thought he was

gonna get up again, huh?

All right, come on.

I'll take you back to your girl.

No, I'm not going by there.

What're you talking about?

Well, we're not

good for each other.

You know, she's doing me

favors all the time.

I'm getting her into trouble.

I got her in there.

What are you talking about?

She's there waiting for you.

Next time I see,

I'm gonna have a job.

- Look, you with a job?

- Yeah.

- What are you talking about?

- I'll be playing piano somewhere.

I'm pretty good.

Yeah, what the f*** do you know?

Yeah, that's right.

What the f*** do I know?

But I know I'm not

afraid anymore.

Just your

good old fashion monster.
