The Walker Page #7

And maybe a murder story.

One that you wrote.

Me?

Of course not.

People think I have

some kind of secret power.

I don't.

I'm not even elected.

I'm just an old man.

Has lot of old friends.

I'm an old man that

always puts my country first.

And Robbie's death.

The cemeteries

are full of dead guys.

He was a criminal.

He was involved in a

criminal act.

And he met

criminal consequences.

As for the opportunists...

Like Attorney Tenant.

Who try to exploit the

situation for political purposes...

They were on

the wrong side, too.

And they will get their due.

It's time to move on.

Lynn, to get back to her life.

You did the right thing, Carl.

So how I was forgotten?

Nothing to remember.

Whoever knows what

really happens?

I know.

Well... Bully for you!

Are we finished?

Good.

How did you get past Abby?

How did she

ever let you in here?

She is more interested

in her television program.

Antiques Roadshow.

Figures.

Good-bye, Carl.

Bye.

So do you still

feel comfortable staying

at my place tonight?

Maybe we should look

for another place.

Ah, sh*t.

We're speeding?

- No.

Put your seatbelt on.

- It's broken.

All right. Just relax.

Emek Yoglu?

Please step outside

the vehicle.

Both of you.

Turn around.

Get your feet apart.

Hands on top of

the vehicle.

Place your hands up

behind your backs.

You're under arrest

for leaving the scene of

an accident.

Said Delorean

took care of it, huh?

I doubt he knows.

Just shut up.

Any additional charges?

That's what we'll find out.

Here.

Emek, put that on.

Mungo is putting on a

bit of a show.

It's called the 'Perp Lock'.

It's a little

like a society opening.

Cameras, reporters...

But a different jewelry.

In all the years I've

known you Ethan, I never knew

you had a sense of humor.

Here's what.

Come and test it.

How are you?

Good.

Considering...

There is a refreshing lack

of choice and a completely

new social set.

I've spoken to your attorney.

We're gonna keep you

till the morning then you and

Mr. Yoglu will be released.

And the search

for Robbie's killer?

That would be Mr. Cominsky,

the fellow hit by the SUV.

He left some blood

at the scene.

We have a DNA match.

And Mungo Tenant?

Attorney Tenant has

taken a leave of absence.

I don't think

he'll be returning.

Sorry about the

publicity and everything.

A mistake was made.

But it's all worked out.

Yeah.

Do you remember what I was

telling you about that offer for the

gallery show in New York?

It came through.

Notoriety has

its upside I guess.

They'll explode the headlines.

You can't avoid that.

Listen.

I want you to come

to the opening. Okay?

Let me think about it.

See you in New York.

Not for long.

- I wish I had been there.

He said it was

on a consignment.

Oh, he wasn't asking

you to pay retail?

No, I said ...

Don't start pulling on that

string or the whole fabric of

our world will unravel.

Knock-knock.

Carl?

We're trying to play.

Don't worry I'm not staying.

I just have something

to return to Lynn.

You're welcome to stay.

Yes, please stay.

We're so happy to see you.

Lynn.

Excuse me.

Congratulations.

For what?

I hear the happy couple,

Lynn and Larry Lockner

are back together.

There is a

function tonight, in fact.

We'll be there together

and make nice...

Consort with the enemy.

You have something for me?

I didn't want you to

worry about ...

Where this might be.

Thank you.

Why did you stand by me?

You thought

I killed Robbie, didn't you?

Of course not.

Not even a little?

Maybe a little.

But after everything you

went through.

You stood by me. Why?

I spent my life without any

real idea why I behaved as I did.

I thought Robbie's

murder was a mystery.

That's not a mystery.

One's own life.

That's a mystery.

A grown man acting

on the fears of a child.

Trying to impress

a father dead ten years.

Now that's a mystery.

Strange how things work out.

Bye, Lynn.
