Baby!

Let the good times roll...

- Where are we going?

- I've been meaning to talk.

I think we should just be friends...

- until you're 20.

- F*** you. I hate you.

- Don't you think?

- No.

You know what?

I can't look at you.

- Stop!

- I can't.

- Don't!

- I can't drive! I can't concentrate.

- John, don't!

- Keep your eyes on the road!

(shrieks)

John!

- I love you.

- I love you.

Where are we going, really?

- I got to make one stop first, okay?

- No.

- Just one. Yeah, then we'll go.

- No!

We got to turn what's in that

briefcase into cash, baby.

Let the good times roll.

Come on, baby.

Come on.

John...

don't go.

Please?

Please stay with me.

Oh, baby,

we just hit double zeros, we gotta

cash out before we leave the table.

Hmm?

I love you.

That's for you, okay?

Baby, lock the door.

Come here, come here.

In every dream home,

a heartache

And every step I take

Oh, those heartaches

Dream home heartaches

Oh, those heartaches

Dream home heartaches

Oh, those heartaches

Dream home heartaches...

(gasps)

Oh, golly...

- Baby.

- Sh*t.

- What's wrong?

- Nothing.

(can opens)

I'm okay. I'm sorry.

- What?

- I'm sorry. I'm okay.

You okay?

Where have you been?

Baby, what happened?

Baby?

What is that?

An accident.

- Are you okay?

- Accident.

There was a car pile up.

- Are you okay?

- There was a car pile up on the 118.

I'm so sorry I made you wait.

That's okay.

- So sorry.

- Baby.

- So sorry you ever met me.

- Shut up, don't.

I'm sorry.

TV reporter:
The Southland

is in shock today over a series

of brutal killings that occurred here

on Wonderland Avenue early today.

Los Angeles police are not saying

very much about what happened.

All we do know for certain

is that four people are dead.

One person is listed

in critical condition.

- John...

- We've spoken with several neighbors,

neighbors who say that while they didn't

know who lived in the house,

they saw people

coming and going all the time,

leading police to speculate

that drugs may have been involved

in this mass murder.

Los Angeles Police

Robbery Homicide Detective Sam Nico

is expected to hold a news conference

later this evening.

Hopefully at that time

we'll learn more about

what transpired here

on Wonderland Avenue.

Police are not saying very much

about what happened.

All we do know for certain is

that four people are dead.

One person is listed

in critical condition.

One police official

who asked not to be identified

told me that this is, quote,

"The most horrific crime scene

I have witnessed in my entire career."

This crime scene,

some are saying,

is as brutal as the Sharon Tate

killings back in 1968.
