Roat [about the murdered Lisa] Well, she was trespassing, Mike... poaching. Going into the business for herself. Bad news. Things like that go on, and what do you have? Anarchy. No discipline, no sense of order. Bad news.

Mike Talman And you? What's your favorite toy?

Roat [pulls out a mini statue] Geraldine.

Carlino What does she do?

[a large blade comes out horizontally from the feet of the statue]

Mike Talman And may we have Geraldine on the table too?

Roat No, we may not.

Carlino Why the hell not?

Roat Because she's the referee.

Susy Hendrix Mr. Roat, are you looking at me?

🧡

Susy Hendrix But I do wish I could do things. You know, important things, like

[sigh]

Susy Hendrix cook a souffle, or pick a necktie, or choose the wallpaper for the bedroom. You know.

Susy Hendrix Sam, are you looking at me?

Sam Hendrix Yes.

Susy Hendrix You know there was a murder around here last night? They found the body this morning. A lady from Scarsdale. I heard it on the radio.

Sam Hendrix So?

Susy Hendrix What if I get chopped in little pieces and dumped in the river? Little tiny pieces that nobody could possibly recognize as having been a poor defenseless, little blind lady whose husband was off in Asbury Park. You're not listening, Sammy.

Sam Hendrix Sure I am. Why don't we get some light around here? They're always finding bodies in New York.

Susy Hendrix Not in the parking lot practically next door, they don't.

Sam Hendrix You're making it up, Susy.

Susy Hendrix No, I'm not. I promise. I told you I heard it on the radio. Really, I did.

Sam Hendrix Come on Susy.

Susy Hendrix [pause] The police don't have the first notion who do it. Pretty spooky, don't you think, Sammy?

Sam Hendrix Tell you what I think. I think it's a ploy to make me stay home.

Susy Hendrix Well, there was a murdered woman found from Scarsdale and that's a true fact.

Sam Hendrix And you're afraid for your life, that's a true fact?

Susy Hendrix No, but it was worth a try.

Susy Hendrix [sending her on dangerous mission] As soon as your safe, I'll call the police.

Gloria Okay. Gee, I wish something like this would happen every day...

Susy Hendrix Do I have to be the world champion blind lady?

Sam Hendrix Yes!

Susy Hendrix [turns around] Then I will be. I'll be everything you want me to be.

Sam Hendrix I don't want you to be anything other than Susy.

🧡

Roat DON'T TOUCH THAT!

Mike Talman All right, how long have you known? When did you figure it out about me?

Susy Hendrix You've been to Sam's studio?

Mike Talman Yeah, that's right.

Susy Hendrix And there was no doll?

Mike Talman More fun still, there wasn't even a desk.

Susy Hendrix Poor Sam. He really should have a desk.

🧡

🥱

Roat Did you know they wanted to kill me? I did. I knew even before they did. They were awful amateurs, and that's why you saw through them.

Susy Hendrix I saw through you too.

Roat No, not all the way, Suzy. Even now, not all the way. The lovely thing was the way I let them set it all up. All that silliness of meeting in the parking lot, the whole thing, they had comic book minds. So, I let them do it their way, right up to the very end. And then, topsy-turvy. Me topsy and them turvy.

Susy Hendrix [trembling] All right, all right you can have it... you can have the doll! I'll give it to you... if you'll... if you'll just go and... and...

Roat Yes, Susy?

Susy Hendrix Not hurt me.

Roat Say please.

Susy Hendrix Please.

Roat No, that's not quite it... say: "please may I give you the doll?"

Susy Hendrix Please may I give you the doll?

Roat You may.

Carlino We don't work safes.

Roat I know. But you talk. And that's why you've been invited to this party. To talk you way into that big black safe, Sergeant.

Mike Talman There's a locked closet in the bedroom.

Roat Oh, no, not there. It's just clothes.

Mike Talman How do you know?

Roat I looked.

Mike Talman You have the key?

Roat It's on the ledge above the door.

Mike Talman No it isn't.

Roat Well, they must have taken it with them.

Mike Talman They lock the closet, but don't bolt the front door?

Roat They're strange people; they lose dolls.

🧡

Mike Talman Damn it, you act as if you're in kindergarten! This is the big bad world, full of mean people, where nasty things happen!

Roat Aren't you forgetting something?

Mike Talman We just earned the money?

[Talamn opens the door and begins to walk out]

Roat I mean fingerprints.

[Talman stops and closes the door]

Roat You just signed your names all over this place.

Roat [Carlino begins wiping off finger prints off banister] Hmmm. Even if you could remember eveything you touched it would still take hours to wipe em off wouldn't it? If not days.

Roat Now all the children have gone to bed, and we can talk.

Susy Hendrix What are you going to do with that gasoline?

Roat Well you just guess.

[lights newspaper on fire]

Roat Now guess!

Susy Hendrix No! Please, no! Alright!

Roat I thought that would save time.

Susy Hendrix I'll get you the doll!

Roat Oh that's a good girl, go right to the head of the class.

Susy Hendrix [trips and falls on top of Mike's body] Mike!

[Roat pulls a chair up from behind, startling her]

Roat It's just a chair, Susy, so you can sit down.

🧡

🥱

Susy Hendrix Oh you must be so bored with me, everytime you come in here, I'm in absolute panic.

🧡

🥱

Susy Hendrix [Upon discovering the doll's whereabouts] You had it?

Gloria I was only borrowing...

Susy Hendrix Gloria, quick, we've got to hide it. Where is it? Give it to me.

Gloria Under your feet. I was only borrowing it, really. That's why I brought it back.

Susy Hendrix Where are we going to put it? In the washing machine. Come, help me.

Susy Hendrix Come. Get up on a chair and look out the window. There's a police car out there. Can you see the face of the man inside of it?

Gloria There's no police car.

Susy Hendrix Are you sure?

Gloria Yeah, I'm sure.

Susy Hendrix There's no car out there?

Gloria Well, yes there is. It's a kind of squatty truck. Right next to the phone booth.

Susy Hendrix Phone booth? Is there anyone inside the truck?

Gloria Well, there's a man standing near it.

Susy Hendrix Is it Mr. Roat? The man who was here when you brought the groceries?

Gloria I don't think so. Susy, he's coming this way!

🧡

👏

🥺

🥱

Mike Talman The doll, Susy. Where is it? Where did you find it?

Susy Hendrix Well that's the silly part, Mike. I don't know why I didn't think of it earlier. I should've remembered ages ago.

Mike Talman That doesn't matter. Where is it?

[behind Mike, Roat and Carlino silently walk into the apartment]

Susy Hendrix You'll think I'm such a fool when I tell you.

Mike Talman Look, Susy, don't complicate things. Just give me the doll, and then Sam will be safe.

Susy Hendrix You're right, that's what's important. If anything happened to Sam...

Mike Talman Susy, where's the doll?

Susy Hendrix I'll get it for you. Would you give me the key ring that's on the nail by the ice box?

🧡

👏

🥺

🤔

🥱

Susy Hendrix You wait here, Mike. I'll be right back.

Mike Talman [grabs her from running into Roat and Carlino still standing sliently by the front door] Wait a minute! Where are you going?

Susy Hendrix To the studio. To Sam's studio. That's where it is.

Mike Talman How do you know the doll's at his studio?

Susy Hendrix Gloria just told me. You know, the little girl with the groceries. She went over there earlier today to do an errand for Sam, and she saw it. And heard it. It played a little tune.

Mike Talman Are you sure about this?

Susy Hendrix Yes, positive. If it hadn't been for that awful Sgt. Carlino hounding me, I could've told you earlier.

[Mike looks behind Suzy at Carlino and Roat still standing silently in which Roat mouths silently that Suzy stays while they go get it]

Mike Talman Okay, Susy, fine. I'll go get it. Where's the studio?

Susy Hendrix Just two blocks away. 78 West Eighth Street. It's on the top floor. And the desk is in the far corner, away from the windows. It's a big old thing with a roller top. You know the type I mean, with cubbyholes and pigeonholes and...

Mike Talman Yeah, I know the kind you mean.

Susy Hendrix It's in the left hand drawer, the doll. Gloria said so.

Mike Talman Susy, I'm gonna ask you once more and this is no time for mistakes. Are you sure the little girl saw the doll at Sam's studio? Are you sure this is all true?

Susy Hendrix I'm saving my husband's life, aren't I Mike?

Mike Talman [walks out with Carlino and Roat] I'll be right back. You stay put. Make yourself a cup of hot coffee or something.

Susy Hendrix Whatever you say, Mike.
