Why?

- They would have called me.

- Not necessarily.

Yes, they would have.

PIease, just do me this favor.

You owe me that! Just make the call!

I owe you.

Detective Flinkman, please.

Sure, I'll hold.

Hello, Detective Flinkman.

Yes, this is Thomas Hudler.

With the Gale

and Howard Ancona thing.

Yes.

Mm-hmm.

I see. Yeah.

It seems they caught the guy

that killed Gale and Howard...

three days ago.

It was some totally random thing.

He saw her at a gas station

in the desert, followed her home.

He made a full confession.

He had details that weren't

made available to the public.

He also had some of Gale's belongings

in his van.

I guess I--

I owe you a little apology.

God, Tommy, please save it.

Just untie me, okay?

I really, really want to go home.

You know...

you really scared the sh*t

out of me back there.

I'm sorry.

I really feel bad about that.

I really do.

Look, Gale's death

was so senseless.

I can see how you would have

become confused...

what with my bad behavior

and all.

I think I should try...

to be not so much

of a sh*t hole from now on.

You know?

That's really good.

Are you gonna pursue

this whole acting thing or--

I don't know.

I might.

If you do, you should

cover yourself just in case...

things don't pan out right away.

You come back to work for me,

on a freelance basis.

You work only for commission.

We're a good team. I just--

- It would be great.

- You think so?

Put all this behind us and all.

You know--

That a boy!

- You know what? I'm starving.

- Me too.

There's got to be a place

to eat around here.

The guy who killed Gale--

Did they say who he was?

Just some guy.

Yeah, that's what they said.

Wow.
