Thank you.
Lt. Neville...
Should I hire a bodyguard?
You already have one.
Quiet! Quiet now!
Michael!
What are you doing here?
How did you get in?
I still have a set of keys.
Don't look at me like that.
I did not kill Elaine.
Why would I? She was the best
meal ticket I ever had.
Second best. I was the best.
I was in San Francisco,
working on my novel...
...and I ran into her.
She convinced me to come back,
said she'd be good for me...
...make it easier for me to write.
I've missed you.
Oh, come on.
You know I only came back
to be near you.
I would have called you sooner or later.
I still love you, Laura!
Michael, stop it!
Oh, poor Elaine.
What good, good f riends.
I was your husband.
I was never your f riend.
But Elaine was.
Why Elaine?
Do you have to destroy
everything you touch?
This whole thing
is pointing towards me...
...and I did not do it!
Everything I have is in Elaine's
apartment. I have no money, no clothes.
The police are after me,
and now you provoke me!
You deliberately provoke me!
You may have these other
people fooled...
...but I know what a killer you can
be at 3:00 in the morning.
-A killer at 3:00...
-Where were you? Where?
When I needed some comfort,
where were you?
In your darkroom.
Where else could I find peace?
-You were drunk!
-You made it impossible for me to write!
That's not true!
You've been drunk
for the last six years!
But you!
Instant star of the world of chic!
Will $50 be enough?
I don't give a damn if everybody else
in Manhattan talks to the reporters.
I don't want you talking.
That guy's bullshit just won't quit.
I'd like to see him hit the streets.
-I don't think he could hack it.
-I know.
Hey, John, how come in that meeting...
...you didn't mention anything
about that Mars chick...
...seeing those things
and having dreams?
You don't believe her, Sal?
No.
You're playing with the big boys now!
Big boys!
Jesus!
-Hi, darling.
-Morning.
Sleep well?
What'd you find out?
There's a very interesting case
of a woman...
...in France who had
something similar.
What happened?
She died in an insane asylum.
-Good morning, Miss Mars.
-Good morning, Tommy.
Maybe you shouldn't talk
to anybody about this.
It might just go away.
Big boys!
Look at that.
Is that fabulous?
That's the fourth I've seen today.
They're all over the city.
They'll be so famous we won't
be able to afford them anymore.
You'll find a way.
Miss Mars, I don't know if the cops
told you any of this...
Let's talk about this some other time.
Mr. Phelps here has things
he'd like to tell you about me...
...but I'd rather tell you them myself.
-What things?
-This isn't the time.
I'm trying very hard to keep
my cards on the table...
-... and myself on the street.
-Bad timing.
I did a bit.
I mean I've been in prison.
What did you do?
I was in for armed robbery
and assault with a deadly weapon.
-And I have some prior arrests.
-Jesus! Spare us the soap opera.
You knew that when you
hired me for Miss Mars.
But what kind of deadly...
You did? You knew that?
Why is that so amazing? You can't
just talk about rehabilitation.
I believe in giving people a chance.
You believe in spit.
And I'm not putting up with...
-I'm not putting up with this...
-Wait!
Five minutes ago, you sat in
this car and tried to railroad me!
-Are you going to let him...
-Wait a minute!
I don't want to hear anymore.
-I'm sorry.
-I'm sorry.
That's it.
Both of you leave me alone!
" Both of you"?
" Both of you. "
Me and your driver.
I'll do some straightening up down here.
Be up in a minute.
Don't forget the flowers.
They're at the regular place.
-The Greek's?
-Yes.
-I'm sorry if I caused you problems...
-No, Tommy, I'm sorry.
It's a difficult time
for all of us...
...so could we just keep
working together?
-You can count on me for that.
-I can always count on you.
You don't need that.
Thanks, Tommy.
Donald!
Laura!
What is it?
-He's
