　　Sir？ Right now？
　　
　　JERRY
　　Sure right now! You’’re darned
　　tootin’’!
　　
　　He is yanking his parka from a hook behind the opened door
　　and grabbing a pair of galoshes.
　　
　　JERRY
　　…… If it’’s so damned imporant
　　to ya!
　　
　　MARGE
　　I’’m sorry， sir， I -
　　
　　Jerry has the parka slung over one arm and the galoshes
　　pinched in his hand.
　　
　　JERRY
　　Aw， what the Christ!
　　
　　He stamps out the door.
　　
　　Marge stares.
　　
　　After a long moment her stare breaks. She glances idly
　　around the office.
　　
　　There is a framed picture facing away from her on the
　　desktop. She turns it to face her. It is Scotty， holding
　　an accordion. There is another picture of Jean.
　　
　　Marge looks at it， looks around， for some reason， at the
　　ceiling.
　　
　　She looks at a trophy shelf on the wall behind her.
　　
　　She fiddles idly with a pencil. She pulls a clipboard
　　toward her. It holds a form from the General Motors Finance
　　Corporation.
　　
　　She looks idly around. Her look abruptly locks.
　　
　　MARGE
　　…… Oh， for Pete’’s sake.
　　
　　Jerry is easing his car around the near corner of the
　　building.
　　
　　Marge’’s voice is flat with dismay:
　　
　　MARGE
　　…… Oh， for Pete’’s sake……
　　
　　She grabs the phone and punches in a number.
　　
　　MARGE
　　…… For Pete’’s s- he’’s fleein’’ the
　　interview. He’’s feelin’’ the
　　interview……
　　
　　Jerry makes a left turn into traffic.
　　
　　MARGE
　　…… Detective Sibert， please……
　　
　　POLICE OFFICER
　　
　　We are looking across a steam table at a man in blue. He
　　moves slowly to the right， pushing his tray along a
　　cafeteria line. Behind him， in the depth of the room， is an
　　eating area of long Formica tables at which sit a mix of
　　uniformed and civilian-clothed police and staff.
　　
　　We are listening to an offscreen woman’’s voice.
　　
　　WOMAN
　　Well， so far we’’re just saying he’’s
　　wanted for questioning in connection
　　with a triple homicide. Nobody at
　　the dealship there’’s been much help
　　guessing where he might go……
　　
　　The woman is entering frame sliding a tray. Marge enters
　　behind her， sliding her own. We move laterally with them as
　　they slowly make their way along the line.
　　
　　MARGE
　　Uh-huh.
　　
　　WOMAN
　　We called his house; his little
　　boy said he hadn’’t been there.
　　
　　MARGE
　　And his wife？
　　
　　WOMAN
　　She’’s visiting relatives in Florida.
　　Now his boss， this guy Gustafson，
　　he’’s also disappeared. Nobody at
　　his office knows where he is.
　　
　　MARGE
　　Geez. Looks like this thing goes
　　higher than we thought. You call
　　his home？
　　
　　WOMAN
　　His wife’’s in the hospital， has
　　been for a couple months. The big C.
　　
　　MARGE
　　Oh， my.
　　
　　WOMAN
　　And this Shep Proudfoot character，
　　he’’s a little darling. He’’s now
　　wanted for assault and parole
　　violation. He clobbered a neighbor
　　of his last night and another
　　person who could be one of your perps，
　　and he’’s at large.
　　
　　MARGE
　　Boy， this thing is really …… geez.
　　
　　WOMAN
　　Well， they’’re all out on the wire.
　　Well， you know……
　　
　　MARGE
　　Yah. Well， I just can’’t thank you
　　enough， Detective Sibert， this
　　cooperation has been outstanding.
　　
　　DETECTIVE SIBERT
　　Ah， well， we haven’’t had to run
　　around like you. When’’re you due？
　　
　　MARGE
　　End a April.
　　
　　DETECTIVE SIBERT
　　Any others？
　　
　　MARGE
　　This’’ll be our first. We’’ve been
　　waiting a long time.
