Come on, Chucky. We have to

get ready to go to bed.

Aunt Maggie,

Chucky wants to watch...

the 9:
00 news.

Sure he does.

Okay, kid, off we go.

Come on. There we go.

- Chucky.

- Oh, yes, Chucky.

You too. Off we go.

Now it's brush your teeth

and under the covers with you.

Okay? Agreed?

Good.

You yell when you're ready

for me to tuck you in.

Hey, Chucky,

want to see my room?

Andy, are you

brushing your teeth?

Yes, Aunt Maggie!

Good.

And now, Action News at 9:00.

In Washington today,

the mayor replied...

that he would study

the congressional findings carefully...

and have the commission on gang-related

violence issue recommendations to him.

Back to you, Steve.

Thank you, Terry.

Police have now clarified

the information...

regarding the escape

of Eddie Caputo.

Caputo eluded his captors...

while being transferred onto

a prison bus on his way to court.

Okay, mister, what do you

have to say about this?

- About what?

- Come on.

You know, you have to learn

that when I say something, I mean it.

- But what did I do?

- You know what I'm talking about.

Turning the TV on

and putting Chucky in front of it...

when I told you

it was time to go to bed.

- I didn't do that.

- No? What did Chucky do?

Walk into the living room

and turn it on by himself?

Did you do that, Chucky?

Andy, stop it!

Under the covers! Hurry.

- But Aunt--

- Under the covers and not another word.

But I didn't put Chucky

in front of the TV.

Shh. Enough. Okay?

Give me a kiss.

Good night, baby,

and happy birthday.

Good night, Aunt Maggie.

I told you she'd be mad at you

if you watched the news.

Andy, is that you?

How did that happen?

Hello?

Hi. How's it going?

How's Andy?

- Karen?

- Who else? Is something wrong?

No.

Everything's fine.

You don't sound

like everything's fine.

I just had a bit of

the alone-at-night willies.

Now, would you

stop worrying and...

give Criswell

a kick in the pants for me.

You got it.

Listen. Thank you for everything.

You're a real pal.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah. Give Andy a kiss for me.

See you soon. Bye.

What is wrong with me?

I'm scaring myself

half to death.

Get away from this barricade.

Move it back.

There's nothing to see.

Let's move this police line back.

Go on home, folks, please.

She was on the sixth floor.

Whoa, miss!

What are you doing?

I live here.

Mommy!

Oh, thank God.

Are you all right?

I'm so glad.

I got so scared when--

What's wrong? Where's Maggie?

- She had an accident.

- What kind of an accident?

Mrs. Barclay,

I'm Detective Mike Norris, homicide.

Could I talk to you

out in the hall?

- Why? What's happened to Maggie?

- Please.

I'll be right back.
