The Laughing Mask Page #6

---

I love you (sobbing) If you break my heart,

I'll die So be sure it's true - Bastard! When you say I love you It's a sin to tell a lie Be sure it's true

when you say I love you It's a sin to tell a lie Millions of hearts

have been broken Just because these words

were spoken I love you, yes I do,

I love you (maniacal laughing) If you break my heart I'll die So be sure it's true

when you say I love you It's a sin to tell a lie Be sure it's true

when you lay I love you - No, no! - Christ, Kate! Are you okay? Kate! - Don't let him get away! I love you, yes it's - [Voiceover] Miss

O'Malley, stop being a baby. - [Kate] Well it hurts! - [Voiceover] You're fine,

I hardly even touch-- - [Kate] Ow! Get a doctor! - You know what, I will

call the doctor, okay? If that makes you happy. - Makes me happy. (heart monitor beeping) - Well you've done it now. - What do you mean? - Your little covert

operation is over. Yeah, I know about it, Kate. Brock told me everything. - It wasn't a secret, Cordova. And I didn't withhold sh*t. Just didn't have time

to log in the evidence. - Twice this guy's put

you in the hospital. You're lucky we were

already looking for you when 911 dispatch

contacted us. Otherwise, you might be dead. Do you have any clue

who he is? - None, but if

he's coming after me we must be pretty close. You got anything

at the location? DNA, fingerprints, anything? - Amanda's checked it over

with a fine-toothed comb. Nothing. - That's impossible. - What about the leads

you told Brock about? Where are you at with those? - This Lopez guy,

he runs The Rancors. And through them, most

of the crime in the city. - Never heard of a Lopez. - The Laughing Mask

is systematically killing off his men one by one. That's why we need to get

to him before he does. And there are these

bank statements. These transactions

were made from a computer at The Barn. When I went there,

this guido looking kid told me all about

this Lopez guy. - This kid? - Yeah. - His body was found where

Wink's was this morning. - Oh my God. - Whatever he told you

cost him his life. This is serious, Kate. Did they see you at this bar? - Yeah. The bartender got

a good look at me. - Take my advice, stay in bed. Don't do anything,

now you've got The Rancors and this maniac

on your ass. We'll put an officer

outside your door, I'll follow up from here. Don't do anything, you hear me? - I can take care of myself. - Says the woman with multiple broken ribs in the hospital bed. Think of Nancy, Kate. She needs her mother alive. - Fine. But you keep me updated

on everything. So what's your next move? - After looking

at what you have, I think I might know

where he's going next. One last thing, where did you get these bank statements? - I can't say, Cordova. - It might mean catching

the son of a b*tch. If I'm gonna help, I

need to know everything. - It was Jake. Playing detective. I think he's seen way too

many episodes of Castle. But you don't need to worry

about that. Honestly, I don't know

why we didn't find this sh*t ourselves. - Jake Johnson? - Yeah. But like I said, dead end there. - Sure, O'Malley. Rest up. (ominous music) - Sweet dreams, pumpkin. Love you. (lights power off) What the hell? (maniacal laughing) Grrr! You son of a b*tch! You want me?! (suspenseful music) (gunshot) I got you, you son of a... (groaning) Go ahead. Do it, you f***ing coward! You took them from me! My wife, my little girl!

(knocking) Where's Barbara?! - [Voiceover] Mr. Johnson! Mr. Johnson! - Yeah. - Are you all right?! - He was here. I couldn't catch him. - Are you all right? - I'm fine. - What a dump. F***ing waste of time. What is this sh*t? (somber piano music) Son of a b*tch. (dramatic music) - Kate, Kate, Kate. You should've stayed

in the hospital. Don't think I won't, gorgeous. You should've listened. It's for your own good,

you know? - Chang's? - The one and only. - Not afraid of germs? - Have you seen this place? Come on Kate, I'm

offering you a last meal. - Alejandro L. Cordova. Lopez Cordova. Did you mean to throw that

one right in our face? - One of my proudest

achievements, Kate. But I do have to thank you. - For what? - If you didn't have your little nervous breakdown,

The Rancors would still be nothing more than

street thugs and pimps. Now we run this town. - What about the masked killer? He's gonna come after you next. - Officer O'Malley was found

dead at the scene of the crime. She was never the same after

the death of her friend JC. After returning back

from active duty, Officer O'Malley

acted erratically, conducting her own investigation

looking for the killer. Her body was found mangled

and mutilated. Much like her friend's. - You're insane. (groaning) - Aw, sh*t! B*tch! (ominous music) (children yelling playfully) (phone rings) - Kate, Homicide. - Hey, I have the results

on that stuffed elephant you gave me. - What did you find? - Well the dirt was

definitely from the cemetery, and also there was some DNA. Besides the groundskeeper,

there was also some from Barbara. - All right, get a team

out to the graveyard. The girl's buried there. - Understood. - Thanks. I owe you one. - [Amanda] I'll remember that. Hey. - What are you reading? - Nothing good, honey. (classical blues music) The house is haunted by

the echo of your last goodbye The house is haunted by the

memories that refuse to die I can't get away from

a vision that brings Intimate glimpses of intimate

things A voice in my heart

like a torch singer sings I wonder who's kissing him now The house is haunted by the

echo of your favorite song The place is cluttered up

with roses That have lived too long,

much too long The ceiling is white,

the shadows are black (rock music) Going down tonight On a magic dragon flight Baby I'm just out of sight It's a party now because You're the best thing, you're

the best thing that I know You're the best thing, you're

the best thing that I know Going out tonight On my magic carpet ride Baby I'm out of sight In the morning I'll be gone You're the best thing, you're

the best thing that I know You're the best thing, you're

the best thing that I know You're the best thing - [Voiceover] Cordova,

always a pleasure to see you. You don't look so good. Poor baby. You're hurt. - I feel horrible. Please help me. - F***ing Cordova. When is he gonna share

some of that? - [Cordova] Adam! You're way too quiet over there. Come here! - Don't make me wait too long. - Shouldn't we be running

by now? That cop chick's gonna

be coming after you hard. - O'Malley's a goddamn pimple. - I can't believe

this place isn't crawling with cops already. - I'm tired of running. This is my night. My last night! - Yeah. - This town belongs

to The Rancors! (lights power down) (screaming) (maniacal laughing) What the f*** you waiting for?! Shoot the motherf***er! (gunfire) (laughter gets louder) (gunshot) - Guns, guns are for pussies. You want to get to Cordova? You gotta go through me,

motherf***er. You wanna dance, clown boy? Let's dance! (gunshot) - Die!
