The Hit List Page #3

He's dead.

The cops are supposed to be by this morning

and ask us all some questions.

Number five. My boss, Fred Gates.

Have you seen Felzner around?

Number four. Brian Felzner.

Brian? I don't know.

I think he had a meeting over at Victor Rosen's. Why?

No, I was just... I was just curious.

You okay, man?

Hmm?

You don't look so good.

No, yeah, no... I'm fine. Will you

put that at my desk, please?

I just... I drank a lot last night, Drew.

Hey, do you work here?

Yeah. Yeah, I do.

Detective McKay. Hi.

What's your name? Allan Campbell.

Hey, Allan. Look, I don't know if you're aware,

but your boss was murdered last night.

No, yeah, no, I heard. That's...

Yeah, someone broke into his house and shot him.

What are you guys thinking, a robbery or...

Well, you can only be robbed

if something gets taken, right? Hmm.

Look, I'm here to talk to all the employees,

but now that we've already met,

why don't I start with you?

You know, Detective, if you don't mind,

I have a really important meeting

that I'm already late for.

So if I could come back anytime,

I can come back today or...

Yeah, yeah, sure.

How about noon?

Does that work for you?

Yeah. Noon's fine.

Let me give you this just in case. And...

I hope you don't mind me asking,

but where were you last night?

Huh?

Where... Where were you last night?

Oh, at home with my wife. Yeah.

Okay? Yeah, I gotta ask.

I'll see you back here...

Thank you very much. Appreciate it.

Hey, you've reached Brian Felzner.

Please leave a message, and have a great day.

Hey, Brian. This is Allan Campbell.

Will you please give me a call

when you have a chance?

Victor Rosen's office.

Is Brian Felzner there?

Brian Felzner?

Yes, the engineer.

Oh, right. He's actually with Mr. Rosen.

Thanks.

Morning, Allan.

Jonas?

What the hell are you doing here?

Waiting for you, obviously.

You killed Gates?

You're welcome.

Why are you doing this?

I'm your friend, remember?

Jonas, this is f***ing crazy. Stop it, please.

Some people never go crazy. What

truly horrible lives they must lead.

I don't want you to do this. Please.

How are you planning on stopping me, Allan?

By going to the police?

Be sure to mention your involvement

as my employer when you do.

What! Are you... What!

I'm sure there's no legal ramifications

for something like that.

Listen, God damn it! I was just having a drink,

having a conversation, just friendly conversation!

I don't... This is a joke! I thought it was a joke!

Allan, lower your voice.

I don't want people to die!

What the hell did you think a hit list was?

Okay. Look, fine.

Fine, if I'm your employer,

then you're fired. Okay?

You're fired. That's it.

Let's just end this.

No can do, Allan.

I'm not the kind of guy to turn his back on a friend

when he sees that he's sick.

Sick? What the...

What are you talking about?

You allow the people in your life to walk all over you.

That's a sickness.

No. They have to learn

that there are consequences when they fail you.

Number four hasn't been crossed off the list yet.

I can't let you do this.

Then stop me, Allan.

Stop me.

Come on, Brian. Pick up.

Come on. Come on. Pick up.

Sh*t!

Come on. Come on.

Would you say he was angry?

I wouldn't say he was angry. He

was just really disappointed.

McKay.

Detective McKay, this is Allan Campbell.

We just met a few minutes ago.

You know, it's funny, your buddy Drew, here,

and I were actually just talking about you.

What?

Yeah, you and your boss had some kind

of disagreement yesterday, Allan?

No, no, no, no. Just listen to me.

I didn't kill him, okay, but I know who did.

Oh, yeah? And who might that be?

Look, there was a guy I was drinking with

in a bar last night.

His name is Jonas.

You gotta trust me, okay?

And you're saying this drinking buddy of yours,

he was the one who clipped Gates?

Yeah! And he's going after Felzner next!

Who's Felzner? Brian Felzner!

The guy who took my promotion!

Your promotion?

Listen, God damn it! I don't have time for this!

You have to come and meet me! Please.

Allan, calm down.

Why don't you come back into the office

and we'll take care of that interview already?

No, no. You come to me.

I'll explain everything to you

when I see you, okay? Please.

Where are you?

The Rosen building. Just please hurry!

Sh*t. Don't go anywhere.

This is Detective McKay.

I need a unit to meet me over at the Rosen building.

Come on.

Can I help you?

Yeah, I'm looking for Brian Felzner.

You called earlier, right? Yeah. Yeah.

You just missed him.

I did?

Hello, there.

Hey, Brian! Brian! Brian.

Campbell!

What the hell are you doing here?

Look, somebody's trying to kill you.

What?

Please. You have to believe me. Okay, just...

If this has something to do with the Gates proposal...

Listen, God damn it! It has nothing

to do with that, okay?

You know something about what happened to Gates?

Yeah, yeah. Yes, I...

Look, yeah, yeah, you stay the hell away from me.

No, no, no. No, please!

No! You stay the f*** away from me! All right, Allan...

No!

Time to go, Allan.

I'm not going with you. I'm not

going with you anywhere, man.

Let's go. Please don't!

Let's go. Come on.

What did you do... Get in the car!

Do you want to be here with Brian?

Get your ass in that car!

Do it!

Let's go, Allan!

Jesus Christ... Get in the car!

Open the door!

I don't want to open it.

Please, Jonas... Get your ass in...

Please, Jonas! Please! Get in the f***ing car!

Hang on.

Sh*t!

Whoa!

Stop it!

Whoa!

Jesus!

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa!

F***.

No! God!

What about our uni? Is he gonna make it?

You got a 20 on that black caddy yet?

All right, okay, let me know.

So, get this, guy goes bananas

right out in the open for everyone to see.

He flattens Felzner in the Caddy, and then he hops out

and he double taps him for good measure.

And we're sure that Campbell wasn't the shooter?

Not according to witnesses.

And we got a building security camera

that shows a black male, mid-40s.

Witnesses say he puts a gun up to Campbell's head

and he forces him into the car.

Campbell mentioned another guy,

somebody he met at a bar last night.

Said this guy was the one that clipped Gates.

We traced Campbell's cell phone back to his car.

Okay, good. We need to talk to Campbell's wife

and anyone else who's seen him the last couple days.

I'm on it.

This just doesn't make any sense.

The shooter, you've seen his shot groupings.

He's a pro.

Why run him over and make a show of it?

It's like he's doing all this just for fun.

Let's go.

He had a family.

He still does.

How can you do that?

How can you just kill somebody like that?

God doesn't discriminate. I guess

he made me in his own image.

Life's a fluke, Allan.

A flash in the pan and then it's over.

A trigger's like a fast forward button.

I just skip to the end credits on other people's lives.

Or not.

The choice is mine to make.

Where are we going, Jonas?

Get in the car.
