So, you think you might remember
who those folks were who called ya?
- Mr Lundegaard?
- Yeah.
- Could I take a minute of your time here?
- What is it all about?
D'you mind if I sit down?
Carrying quite a load here.
- You're the owner here, Mr Lundegaard?
- No, I... Executive sales manager.
- You can help me. I'm Marge Gunderson.
- My father-in-law is the owner.
Well, I'm a police officer from up
Brainerd investigating some malfeasance.
I was wondering if you'd had any vehicles
stolen off the lot in the past two weeks.
Specifically, a tan-coloured Ciera.
Mr Lundegaard?
Brainerd?
Yah, yah. Home of Paul Bunyan,
Babe the Blue Ox.
Babe the Blue Ox.
Yeah, you know,
we got that big statue up there.
So, you haven't had any vehicles
go missing, then?
No. No, ma'am.
Okey-dokey, thanks a bunch. I'll let you
get back to your paperwork, then.
- Yah, get me Shep.
- He's not here right now.
- What the heck d'you mean?
- He stepped out.
- Where did he go?
- I'll get Arty.
No, I don't need a mechanic.
I need a...
Aw, jeez. I gotta talk to a friend of his.
So have him...

Oh, easy there, easy there.
Easy there, easy there.
You do, too. I'm expecting.
Oh, I see that. Thats great.
- Oh, what can I get ya?
- Oh, just a Diet Coke, please.

You know, its a Radisson,
so its pretty good. Yah.
So...
- You're living in Edina, then?
- Yah, yah, yah. A couple of years now.
Its actually Eden Prairie,
that school district.
So, Chief Gunderson, then!
So, you married
Norm son-of-a-Gunderson.
- Oh, yah. Long time ago.
- Great. Great.
So, what brings you down...
Are you down here on that homicide,
if you're allowed to discuss that?
Oh, yah, yah. But there's not
a heck of a lot to discuss.
Well, what about you, Mike?
Are you married? You got kids?
Yah, yah. Well...
I was married. I was married to...
You mind if I sit over here?
- I was married to Linda Cooksey.
- No, why not sit over there? I prefer that.
- Sorry.
- Oh, no, no. Just so I can see ya.
- Don't have to turn my neck.
- Oh, sure, sure. I understand.
- I didn't mean to...
- No, no.
Thats fine.
Yah. Sorry. Sorry.
So, I was married to Linda Cooksey. You
remember her. She was a year behind us.
Yeah, I think I remember her.
Yeah. She... Oh, yeah, yeah.
So it didn't work out, huh?
And then I've been working
for Honeywell for a few years now.
- Oh, well, they're a good outfit.
- If you're an engineer, you can do worse.
But its not...
Its nothing like your achievement.
Oh, well, it sounds like
you're doing really super.
Its not that things didn't work out.
Its...
Linda had leukaemia, you know.
She was a... She passed away.
No!
- It was tough.
- There you go.
It was long...
She fought real hard, Marge.
What can you say?
Oh. Better times, huh?
Better times.
Oh, and then I saw ya on the TV
and I remembered, you know,
I always liked you.
- Well, I always liked you, Mike.
- I always liked you so much.
So, Mike, should we
get together another time?
No! I... I...
I'm sorry. Its...
I shouldn't have done this.
I shouldn't have done this. I shouldn't.
- I thought we'd have a really terrific time.
- Its OK, Mike.
You were such a super lady.
And then... I've been so Ionely.
Its OK, Mike.
Here's a song I dedicate
to all the ladies out here tonight.
It goes like this.
So, are you from around here?
Just in town on business.
Just in and out.
Just a little of the old "in and out".
What do you do?
Have you been to the Celebrity Room
before with other clients?
I don't think so. Its nice.
Yeah, well, it depends on the artist.
You know, Jose Feliciano,
you got no complaints.
Waiter.
Is he deaf?
So, how long you work for
the escort service?
I don't know. A few months.
Find that work interesting, do you?
What are you talkin' about?
All right.
