Taking Lives Page #5
They have galleries there, right?
Oh, God.
Where is it? Oh, my God.
Scott.
She's here?
No. l'm in the hospital already.
l'm just here with a friend.
-Be gentle.
-l'll be right up. Okay.
That was Leclair.
-l have to meet him upstairs.
-Sorry.
Do you wanna come back here
or meet in the lobby?
Lobby.
All right.
How's your friend?
-He's fine.
-l know this is unpleasant for you...
...but if you could just give us
a definitive identification.
l understand.
Can't touch the body.
l'll touch anything l wish.
Crazy old bat.
Mrs. Asher?
Mrs. Asher!
Mrs. Asher?
Hello, Mother.
All l ever wanted...
...was to love you.
But you wouldn't let me.
lt was always Reese.
You could have had me forever, but you...
...ruined it. You ruined...
...everything.
Step back, Martin.
You don't frighten me.
llleana!
llleana!
Costa did it.
Costa did it.
Costa is Asher.
-What did you say?
-Oh, sh*t!
-Costa did it.
-Where is he?
-Where?
-Elevator.
-Down? Up?
-Down!
Which one?
F***!
Come on, for f***'s sakes.
Hey, man. l found these in the machine.
Are they yours?
-Yeah. Thanks, man.
-l was buying a pack....
You don't trust us, but you did trust her
enough to come here and f*** our killer.
Case was closed. She's handled herself
in a professional manner.
Bullshit!
Tell that to Duval. You remember Duval?
And the poor bastard lying in the morgue?
l know how you feel.
lf you have something to say,
say it to me.
-What did you say?
-lf you have something to say--
Paquette!
For the past four years,
l've been scouting for the League.
Quebec, Alberta, Manitoba, BC last year.
Whenever l hear about some star kid.
-Always traveling?
-You get used to it after a while.
-Tough on the wife, though.
-Not married.
No? So it's just you
and the two sisters, right?
Susan and Debbie.
And where are they?
-They're back home in Tracadie.
-Tracadie.
Hockey's big out there.
Yeah, there's nothing else to do
in that f***ing town.
-You play as a kid?
-Yeah, a little.
World Junior Team two years in a row.
No sh*t. l could tell, l could tell.
You got all that residual confidence
left over from being a golden boy.
The way you smoke...
...your voice...
...it's a little low.
Trying to be cool, so kids at the rink
don't know what a loser you've become.
What the f*** you saying, man?
Don't get tense.
That's Christopher Hart.
-What do we know about him?
-He's a drug addict and an art thief.
Costa was selling stolen art for him.
E-mails show Costa wasn't paying him.
All Hart wanted was his money.
He owed him over $80,000.
Costa set him up.
Yeah.
Hi. Are you there?
lt's me.
-Who is this?
-You know who it is.
Come on, llleana.
You didn't fall for James Costa.
Somebody as beautiful
and powerful as you...
...doesn't fall for a faggy art dealer.
Okay?
That guy was nothing, all right?
I didn't take his life, I lived it.
I was the best thing
that ever happened to that guy.
You looked at him...
...and you saw me.
And l looked at you, and l saw you.
And we are the same.
F*** you.
''F*** you''?
F*** you. Yeah, l did f*** you.
Remember making love with those pictures
of the dead people around us?
Let's face it, Illeana...
...an ordinary person does not love that
as much as we did.
I mean, coming inside of you
was the best moment of my life.
And I feel so much better now.
Everything just keeps going my way,
you know?
Bye-bye.
-What'd he say?
-Where is he?
A hit. Morin's credit card.
Bought a train ticket...
-He'll be there in 20 minutes.
Get Commander Hache on the phone
and the Moncton director.
l'll be fine.
Thank you.
I want a cup of coffee,
I go to the diner across the street.
I come back in, the door's busted open,
and my desk is all messed up.
This isn't a coincidence, is it?
Help!
Police!
Seal off all the exits.
Now, now! Do it now!
You.
After carefully reviewing Special Agent
Scott's record with the Bureau...
...the Office of Professional Responsibility
has issued a letter of termination...
...citing egregious lack of judgment...
...and conduct unbecoming
of a federal agent.
Though the Bureau is saddened to lose
an agent of your caliber...
...we're confident that this decision
will best serve all parties involved.
Last reported observation
at Fort Collins airport...
...showed wind gusts to 80 knots.
Clouds to 8000 feet.
Visibility, two miles.
Air temperature currently 1 0 degrees.
National weather forecast....
Sweetheart, you should
get yourself home.
lt's miserable out there.
-Thanks. See you, Liz.
-See you.
-You be careful, huh?
-l will.
l scared you. l'm sorry.
Come on, have a seat.
No, no. Come on, have a seat.
You were making some tea?
All right, let me make you a cup.
Are you...? What are you looking for?
You looking...?
You looking for this?
Now, you see,
that's got me very confused, llleana.
l mean, you got these planted
all over the house.
Got this one behind the fridge.
You got one under the bed...
...the underside of the bathtub.
You must be awfully scared
out here on your own.
ls that it?
You feeling scared?
l followed all that business
down there in Washington...
...which, l thought...
...was completely bogus, by the way.
They were lucky to have you.
Very lucky.
But then you just disappeared.
You dropped out.
You left a few footprints, though,
didn't you?
l thought you were pretty easy to find.
Come out here,
there's never any cops around.
You don't make any phone calls.
Here you go.
Careful, it's still hot.
And then l saw
that your belly was growing...
...and l knew
that you were waiting for me.
They're boys, aren't they?
Twins?
lt's full of so much love and warmth.
l can....
l can picture them in there, playing...
...having fun.
You and l...
...watching...
...and laughing.
You and l.
We can start fresh.
We can do this.
What? What is it?
l don't want to.
l'm sorry. Those are our babies.
-l know those are.
-These are not your babies.
These are James Costa's babies.
l don't know who you are.
Why would you say something like that?
Why would you say something like that?
-Take it back.
-Okay, okay. l take it back. l take it back!
All right.
All right. Well, then stand up. Come on.
Stand up.
You okay?
-Whose babies are they?
-Yours.
They're mine?
Give me a kiss.
Kiss me.
lt's all right.
l'm not gonna kill you.
l'm gonna do this until you pass out.
You're probably getting light-headed
right about now. That's all right. Relax.
lt's okay.
Okay. All right, come.
Give those to me.
lt's all right. lt's all right.
Hey, calm down. Give it to me.
Calm down.
Give it to me. All right?
What are you doing?
What is wrong with you?
Okay!
You gonna calm down?
l'm not gonna hurt you, all right?
l don't want to hurt you.
-Are you gonna calm down?
-Yes! Yes. Yes.
Everything you saw...
