Bare Witness Page #3

Synopsis: Professional killer Gav Reed commits a grave mistake allowing himself to be videotaped (as she always does, for a documentary she hopes to sell to Hollywood about the real nocturnal 'eldest business' there) by Julie Spencer, one of Max 'Slim' Reuter's hookers and porn actresses, whom he had sex with before - and while making a most incriminating call about his murder attempt at a high society campaign party for mayor Garland's electoral challenger Mary Washington, where the bullet is however caught by councilor Frank Constantine, who also survives. Gav's client, businessman Ian Hunter, who was videotaped earlier, has his girl Marina shoot Gav and then Julie, later Slim who. Rough but effective police detective Killian investigates, helped by Julie's friend Carly Marsh, and unravels even more sordid connections.

Of course, only when he's not looking.

Why the change of heart?

A**hole's gonna lose.

Hey, cap.

Thanks.

-Looking for somebody?

-Carly. You seen her?

If she's not home,

she's usually on the roof.

-The roof?

-Up that way.

Same stairs? Great.

-Okay.

-Thanks.

-Bye-bye.

-Bye-bye.

No, she never came home last night.

Yeah, I know.

But she would have called.

Yeah, I know.

Can you hang on a second?

-Carly Marsh?

-Yeah.

Detective Killian. Got some questions

to ask you about Julie Spencer.

All right.

Let me call you back.

Julie's parents live in Detroit.

They're religious.

She used to say they made

Jerry Falwell look like John Holmes.

One day they caught her with a boy

and kicked her out.

And she hasn't....

Hadn't seen them since.

Julie's body was found in a dumpster

in Hollywood.

Any idea how it got there?

No.

I thought she was gonna be at work.

Where would that be?

She was making an adult film at--

In Slim's studio in Van Nuys.

Slim. Who's that?

Her manager.

His real name is Max Reuter.

That might be a good name

to write down.

Okay. So the body's found

in Hollywood...

...and you dropped her off

in the Valley.

What was she doing

on the other side of the hill?

-I don't know.

-You don't know.

Who would?

I don't know. A client, maybe?

I'm sorry? Client? Can you

elaborate on that a little bit?

Julie turned tricks.

She needed the extra cash.

Julie turned tricks.

Do you have any of the names

of her clients?

No. She didn't have

any regular clients.

Slim called her

with guys who needed dates.

Any of these guys ever

hurt her in any way?

No. She would have told me.

And if it was last night,

she wouldn't have had the chance.

From the looks of it.

I tried to make her stop...

...because I thought something bad

was gonna happen.

You two get along?

Yeah, we're like sisters.

You ever fight?

Of course. Everyone fights.

What did you fight about?

What do you and your wife fight about?

-Lots of things.

-Exactly.

Who's gonna walk the dog,

take out the garbage....

Professional jealousy.

You two ever spar about that?

No. I don't take my clothes off

for a living.

I loved Julie.

I would never, ever hurt her.

Are we done here?

Yeah, for now. Can I call you a cab?

I'll take the bus.

Not at this time of night.

We're downtown.

Well, then I'll walk.

So dramatic.

Miss Marsh?

-You don't need to escort me home.

-Just part of the job.

This is it.

If you need anything, or think

of anything in addition to--

You know what I mean. Here's my card.

Thanks. Good night.

Stop! Knock it off!

But she saw my face.

Move. Go.

She won't remember. Move.

Come on.

Go.

So, what else did they take?
