Yes, at an airport press

conference and the

TV interview.

Look here. Peter Neal...

Analysis of Obsesssion

Peter Neal, Aparrent

Behavior - The Novel

Peter Neal, Personal

Born Rhode I. Pref School

in Yale. Strict Catholic.

Taller than I expected

with lightbrown eyes.

He looked at me often but he

never spoke to me.

Jesus. Somebody was really

into your life!

Can we go outside? - Sure!

Bless you!

Oh thank you. I have an

allergy to dust

What happened to your head?

Just feeding my brains out

on the case.

One thing's for sure. The

killer and Christiano Berti

were both obsessed

by your work!

Last time we talked, I think

I was a little sarcastic

but you know we need all the

help we can get.

Well I was trying to build

the plot the same way you're

trying to figure it out but

I just have that hunch that

something is missing.

Tiny piece of jigsaw. Some-

body who should be dead is

alive, or somebody who

should be alive is...

already dead.

Explain that.

You know there is a sentence

in a Conan Doyle Book

When you have eliminated

the imp., whatever remains

however inprobable must be

the truth!

Hound of the Baskervilles?

Yes. You know the impossible

in this case is that the

chain of killings doesn't

make sense!

In Hound of the Baskervilles

the impossible was a giant

ghost dog!

The improbable in this case

again, like the book

is almost certainly weird,

unbelievable

but possible.

That's what we have to find.

Truth is always possible!

Mr. Neal! - I have to go.

I'm a very devoted reader,

Mr. Neal and I'd like to

think that 20 more books of

yours to enjoy in future!

So I guess what I'm asking

is selfish.

Tell me, would you leave

town? Today?

I was going to do just that.

Ah ok, let me know where to

find you, eh? Good luck!

For you, Jane.

Passport? - Passport.

Passport. Oh Passport.

OK. The bank's wired me the

money at Raphael in Paris.

You are booked for a week.

Good.

Hello? The Captain?

I am afraid he is out to the

airport already. Yes?

Is there anything I can...

Alright!

Good bye!

He just wanted to make sure

you're going.

Something happened he said

he was only

checking to make sure you

were safe!

Oh, hi!

Hi!

Ann brings me to the Airport

You don't have to drive me!

I know there is a piece of

the puzzle back at the house

If I remember it, see it.

Where are you going?

Classified! Silly, I know

but if no one knows...

That's cool. But I'd be glad

to see you again!

I'm really that you had to

get caught up in all this!

I won't say it's worth it,

but I'm glad we've met!

And call me when it's over

and you'll be back in Rome!

I go down with you! - OK!

Yes I killed them. It was me!

I killed them,

I killed them all!

Christiano... But I don't...

Killed them all,

killed them all...

Christiano is the murderer.

So who killed him?

Hello? Oh Ann, I'm sorry

I wanted Peter!

He's gone, he's left Italy.

I did something so...

It's like there are two

people in me...

...and sometimes the other

one just takes over!

Where are you, Jane?

Are you in Rome?

Yeah. Help me please, don't

let me kill myself.

Tell me where you are Jane.

I'll come around, alright.

An appartment, on the

Cassia No. 11.

I'll be right down.

Give me a few minutes!

I am so sorry!

I didn't mean to.

I wanted to explain...

...about...

...everything...

...I have done!

Ok, I'm coming. God damn.

Who is that lady?

She is the housekeeper of

Bulmer. She's a Philipino

and has a lot of interesting

stuff to say say about him.

Like Bulmer had a girlfriend

A regular grilfriend.

What language she speaks?

Only Tagalog and Spanish!

You question her! The

Murderer has killed again

I have to go!

Ok, I see you later, eh!?

Have you got a license

to work for Mr. Bulmer?

Oh, thank you!

Good bye!

Ann? Is it you Ann?

Ann?

I didn't know...

I didn't know that...

No, don't look!

When you have eliminated

the impossible,

whatevery remains,

however improbably

must be the truth.

And Bulmers maid told Insp.

Altieri he had an affair...

...with your fiance

Altieri was too headstrong

and came over here...

...alone to check.

She didn't know that

you Neal are mad.

Completely mad.

And it cost her her life.

I don't know if I should

hate or feel sorry for you!

No, I didn't kill the other

women, I didn't kill them!

I know. That would have been

impossible!

But I realized Christiano

Berti was the killer.

And it didn't take me

long to realize that.

The rest, Mr. Germani, was

like writing a book. A Book!

Perfect revenge.

The Razor Killer was dead...

. but you wanted him to live

on...

...long enough to be blamed

for the murder of your...

. fiance & her lover. The

two people you hated most!

Come on, get up! - No!

Turn around.

You know the routine.

Come on, get up. Get up! -

Come on, move over there.

I'll call from the car radio

Come on now, lets go.

No wait. I don't want to

leave him!

Lets go now!

Ok, it's over!

Peter! It's not possible.

I couldn't believe it either

not until I got the telex

from Interpol this evening.

When Peter was a teenager

in Rhode Island,

a girl he knew was killed,

brutally!

Someone accused him but

there wasn't any evidence

and it was never brought

to trial!

But it was Peter Neal. There

he committed an act

which haunted his life and

twisted his mind forever!

It was in his last book.

Now he realized that any

obstactle or humilitation

standing in his way could be

swept aside by a simple

act of annihilation: Murder!

Calm down, it's all over now

You better stay here.

Wait for me
