The Unbroken Page #8
This girl.
Tommy.
Tommy!
No, no.
Sarah, no.
Sarah, he's gone.
- No, please...
- It was an accident.
He fell off the edge
and the railing hit him.
It crushed him.
He was such
a sweet, sweet kid.
Sarah.
(GASP)
- Ma'am, you can't do that.
(DEEP SOB)
You and I both know
what happened to Tommy
wasn't an accident.
If you're not careful...
...the same thing's
gonna happen to you.
Are you threatening me?
No, no no no.
I'm warning you.
(SUDDEN EXHALE)
Get your hands off of me.
You murderer!
Sarah, it's me, Tommy.
Uh, listen,
I just wanted to call
and say I'm sorry, first.
Uh, you know, between the
heat and the garbage,
and I wasn't in the best
of moods, all right?
I'm just sorry
for losing my junk.
Anyhow, you're not
gonna believe this.
I just had a little run-in with
our friend, Mr. Middlebrooks,
and then he went
back to the dumpster,
and pulled out
a completely different bag.
So, hate to admit it,
but you could be right.
I'm gonna go in and just see
if I can find something.
Wish me luck, all right?
Call me back.

(TIRES SCREECHING)
(GASP)
Dammit, dammit, dammit!
What do you want?!
Tommy is dead because he
was trying to help you!
Say something!
(DRAMATIC ARRANGEMENT #)
(GLASS BREAKS)
You want to break things?
Fine, let's break things.
(THUD)
(FRUSTRATED VOCALIZATION)
(HEAVY EXHALE)
I don't know what to do.
(GHOSTLY WHOOSH)
These?
I already checked
the paintings.
I didn't find anything.
The art gallery?
(TOY CLOWN LAUGHING)
(ENGINE STARTS)
(CLICK)
Thanks.
(RUNNING WATER)
I don't get it.
I mean, I-I...
I've looked at all these.
I get nothing.
Tommy died
trying to help you.
Can you
help me out here?
What are you
trying to tell me?
(DRAMATIC MUSIC #)
(WHOOSHING)
(GHOSTLY WHOOSH)
I know what this is.
(OMINOUS WHOOSH)
(TENSE ARRANGEMENT #)
(HAUNTING MELODY #)
(CLOCK TICKING)
(TICKING)
(TICKING)
(YELLING)
Stop screaming.
Get your hands
off of me!
Calm down, Sarah.
Why are you in here?
You know why I'm in here,
you murderer!
Murderer?
What...?
You think...?
I can explain...
No, no, no, no, no,
Sarah.
Now you play nice!
Now you be a good girl,
because we don't want
to play with sharp things,
do we?
(STRUGGLING)
We need to talk!
Now that was an accident, Sarah.
I'm sorry.
(HEAVY BREATHING)
Now listen...
I'm a good person.
No, you're not.
You killed Tommy!
Is that what you think?
You think that I...
...killed Tommy?
I had nothing to do
with that.
No, no, no, no, no, Sarah.
Now we're done
playing the box cutter game.
We're not gonna play
like that anymore, are we?
(CLINK)
You murderer!
Don't say that, Sarah.
Murderer!
Stop throwing things!
Murderer!
I said
You understand me?
Now you're gonna listen,
and be a good girl!
Or el... (THUD) (PAINED YELL)
(HEAVY BREATHING)
(GROAN)
That hurt, Sarah.
That hurt my head.
And it hurt my feelings.
So...
...I think
you need to be punished.
God...has blessed us with...
...infinite choice.
But sometimes...
...his lambs...
...stray...the...course.
Hm.
I like that.
You know, Sarah, I'm so
sorry for hitting you.
And for tying you up.
But you were behaving
very poorly.
I mean, even my students know better
than to throw things in the classroom.
And hammers...
Hammers are for
hitting nails...
...not people's heads.
You're gonna kill me now?
Well...
That is option A.
I mean, I could kill you, and
cut you up in to little pieces,
and bury you
right on the property.
No one
would know the better.
Not even the cops
would know.
After all,
no one really cares.
Do they, Sarah?
Terrible and horrible things
happen in the world every day.
And people act
as if they're helpless.
It's sad.
I, myself, am not going
to act helpless, Sarah.
So...
There's option A.
Or there's option B.
Which is for you
to tell me
everything that you know
and then we can just
walk right out of here.
Who knows? We could maybe
even be friends again.
After all,
we are neighbors, Sarah.
So...
What's it going to be?
Or option A?
(SPUTTERING SPRITZ)
(STRUGGLING)
Wow.
day, aren't you Sarah?
(GRUNT)
(PAINED GROAN)
(STRUGGLING)
So...
I guess
You...
I got rid of you
long ago.
(HEAVY BREATHING)
Was he the one
that told you to come here?
Of course he was.
Why did you tell her
to come here?
What did you tell her?!
I know what this is.
(CHUCKLING)
I know what this is.
Well you're not gonna get
away with it this time.
See, it's all starting
to make sense to me now.
And I'm gonna
put an end to it.
once and for all, right now!
(CRASHING GLASS)
You're supposed to help
your kids, not hurt them!
(THWACK)
(GROAN)
(CRASH)
(PAINED GROANS)
(CLATTERING ART SUPPLIES)
(COUGH)
Sa-Sarah...
(SPUTTERING COUGH)
(HAUNTING MELODY #)
(LIGHT SOBBING)
(ETHEREAL RINGING)
Thank you.
(HEAVY EXHALE)
You're welcome, Niki.
That is your name, right?
(NIKI GIGGLES)
(RELIEVED EXHALE)
Thanks for playing with me.
I'm gonna miss you
when you're gone.
(GHOSTLY WHOOSH)
So you sold all of them?
So who knew that being a victim slash
hero would be so good for business?
I should have thought
of that ages ago.
Yeah, right.
So how's the new stuff coming?
It looks good. It's a whole lot
different than the last batch.
Well this time,
just be careful
where you get
your inspiration from.
Gotcha.
Do you believe they're still
checking that place behind my house?
- Still?
- Yup.
(KNOCKING)
Oh, hey, there's somebody at the door.
I gotta go, okay?
All right. Well, congrats again.
Bye.
Bye.
All right. Well that should
be everything you need.
Okay, thank you.
Oh, by the way,
you were right.
There's a body back there.
There was? Well, were you
able to identify it?
Yeah, it was the body
of a Niki Davis.
Niki Davis?
Did you know
who he was?
Niki Davis was a she.
She lived in your apartment
before you moved in.
Wait, Niki was...
Niki was a woman?
Went missing
about six months ago.
According to
Middlebrooks' diary,
he murdered her, and he
buried her back there.
Why would he do that?
He was seeing some little
boy's ghost, and uh...
...he thought that she
murdered the little boy,
and now he was avenging
his death.
Well, did she
kill a little boy?
We don't have any cases
of a missing boy.
But, this town
is so full of
missing people
and unexplained deaths,
we cannot keep up.
At least this case
is closed.
I thought
you should know.
- Thanks.
- You're welcome.
Have a great day.
Hey, neighbor.
Hey.
You all right?
Yeah.
- You settling in okay?
- Mm-hmm.
So you don't need any help
with any more boxes?
No, perfect timing,
'cause it's the last box.
I'm good at that.
