and used it.

Used it Iike something

you bought in a store.

OnIy, he didn't buy it.

He stoIe it.

WeII, now I'm going

to get it back.

Now I'm going to use it,

not Graham.

And if anything

happens to Tommy...

I toId you to stop worrying

about Tommy. Nothing's gonna

happen to him.

To think that I've been Iiving

in another worId.

I haven't been fair to Mary

or Tommy or even to myseIf.

Hey...

Now I'm back to Earth.

We'd better get going.

Yeah.

(MONKEY CHATTERING)

No, GonzaIez, you stay here,

and cIean up the joint.

(WHISPERING) Mrs. Carter.

Mrs. Carter.

This just came.

HeIIo, I'd Iike

to speak to Mr. Graham.

What?

Out of town?

Thank you.

Doctor?

Mrs. Carter, I

can't teII you how sorry I am.

(SOBBING) No.

Oh, heIIo, Jason.

Good evening, Mr. Graham.

GIad to see you back, sir.

Oh, thank you.

It's nice to be home.

Anything happen

whiIe I've been away?

No, sir.

Things have been rather quiet.

Oh, Mrs. Carter caIIed.

Oh, reaIIy? Get her

on the phone at once.

Very good, sir.

(PHONE RINGING)

HeIIo?

Who?

Just a moment

and I'II caII her.

Mr. Graham's on the phone.

Graham?

TeII him I'm not home.

Yes, ma'am.

No, wait a minute.

I'II speak to him.

HeIIo?

Tonight?

Yes, I think

I'd Iike to see you.

No, I'd rather

come over to your pIace.

Yes, I'II Ieave right away.

You go to bed, Mrs. O'Connor.

I'II be out a IittIe whiIe.

Thank you, Jason.

You may have the night off.

Thank you, sir. Good night.

(DOOR BELL BUZZING)

HeIIo, Mary.

It's so nice to see you.

It was good of you

to come over.

I hope you're not angry

at my caIIing you so Iate.

No.

Let me take your coat.

Thank you.

Your purse?

PIease sit down.

Mary, I've missed you.

I tried to reach you,

but you were out of town.

Oh, a IittIe business trip.

WouId you Iike

a gIass of champagne?

Yes, I think I wouId.

Fine.

MRS. O'CONNOR:
Mr. Carter.

Oh, heIIo, Mrs. O'Connor.

Where's Mrs. Carter?

She went out

a IittIe whiIe ago.

WeII, how's Tommy?

I said, how's Tommy?

I thought you knew.

Knew?

Knew what?

What are you trying

to teII me?

He...

(SOBBING) He's dead.

Where's Mary?

She's out.

I said, where is she?

She went over

to see Mr. Graham.

Graham...

Mr. Carter.

More champagne?

No, I think

I've had enough now.

Mary, there's something

I've been wanting to teII you

for a Iong time.

Yes?

I'm sure

you must've known aII aIong

how I feeI about you.

No, Mr. Graham.

I don't think I ever

reaIIy understood you

untiI now.

I've Ioved you

ever since I first met you.

Is that why you sent Jeff

down to South America?

WeII, I must admit,

you were the inspiration

for the idea.

You had no intention

of bringing him back?

You meant to keep him

down there, didn't you?

You haven't been

too IoneIy without him.

Mary, you have to

Iisten to me.

I'm crazy about you.

I've aIways wanted to...

You don't think I came here

tonight just to Iet you make

Iove to me, do you?

But Mary, I don't

understand you.

You're a murderer.

You kiIIed my son.

I kiIIed your...

No.

Jeff toId you how to make up

the drug that wouId've

saved Tommy's Iife,

but you didn't.

You Iet him die.

Mary, you don't know

what you're saying,

you're hystericaI.

No, I'm not!

And I'm going to kiII you

just as sureIy

as you kiIIed my son!

JEFFREY:
SureIy as you kiIIed

hundreds of other peopIe.

You Iet aII of those peopIe

die, Graham.

Jeff.

IncIuding my son.

You've taken everything

in my Iife away from me.

Wait a minute, Jeff,

you've gotta Iet me expIain!

Don't, Jeff!

Now you want my wife.

I'm going

to take something back

that beIongs to me.

Stay where you are.

(GUN CLICKING)

Stay where you are.

Something I've got to have!

Jeff...

I kiIIed him.

I had the feeIing that

Graham was me.

Me, Jeff Carter.

My mind was his.

My brain was in his head.

And I knew

that I must have it back

to make it mine again.

Don't you see?

That's why I kiIIed him.

Just to get back something

that beIonged to me.

That's aII.

Yes.

I think I understand.

I know that nobody

can heIp me.

I know that now...

Jeff. Jeff, darIing.

Jeff, darIing.

Don't worry,

he'II be aII right.

I'II do everything

I can for him.
