Why don't you take my seat,|Mrs. Kellogg.
- Right here?|- Yes.
If it's too cold for you,|we'll close the window.
No, it's all right. I'm fine.|Thank you.
Ready?
Let's get started.
We're speaking with Cynthia Kellogg|who has come forward voluntarily...
to give information in the case|regarding James Urbanski.
In attendance|are Detective John Woods...
and myself,|Detective Linda Nealon.
Mrs. Kellogg, as procedure,|I have to inform you of your rights.
You have the right to remain silent.
If you give up that right,|anything you say...
can be held against you|in a court of law.
You have the right to an attorney.
I don't need an attorney.
I didn't do anything|that I should need one.
This is your right.
lf, during the questioning, you wish|to have an attorney present, you may.
I'm just anxious to get on with this.
Do you understand|everything I've said?
Yes, I do.
When was the first time you noticed|problems in the Urbanski marriage?
That I can remember....
The wedding.
That's it, fellas.
How you doing?
How are you?
How you doing? How are you?|Good to see you.
Congratulations, Dominic.
Hey, how are you?
Harry, you look great.|Hey, what do you got?
We can use a couple|more drinks here, Bob.
I was more nervous|than I thought I'd be.
I forgot to do my left hand.
You have gloves on.|Nobody'll notice.
I messed up those words|during the ceremony.
Everyone messes up. Remember mine?|I forgot everything.
Your wedding was great.|Except your husband is...
I don't know. What groom|sells tools at his own wedding?
I know. Let me go get my comb.
Move quickly.|The condo is the future.
If you wanna go co-op,|I can help you with that too.
I couldn't tell the difference.
A condo, you own outright.|A co-op, you own stock in it.
All the units together.|It's not that complicated.
What? One minute, excuse me.
I need the purse.
Do you have to talk business?|This is a wedding.
Cynthia, that's the best time.
Social occasions.|How do you think people get rich?
Rich? That's Joyce's cousin, Bobby.|He doesn't even have a job.
Dominic, the purse.
Thanks, hon.
I'm gonna check with the photographer.
Let's have a group shot|of just the bridesmaids.
Just bridesmaids, please.
Joyce?
Come here.
Come here.
What?
- The purse?|- I gave it to my dad.
Since when do you trust your father?
He paid for the wedding. If he wants|to collect the envelopes, let him.
- Get the purse.|- No!
Go get it!
My sister paid for this dress.
- Come on, it's family now.|- It's none of your business.
- There's no need...|- Get out of here.
Who invited you anyway?
I'm telling you nicely,|go get the purse.
He embarrassed you.|He embarrassed me.
Jim, you got your whole life to fight.|Let's go get a drink.
Go get me a V.O. and soda.
- Daddy?|- Hi, hon.
- What?|- Give me the purse.
I'll take care of it.|You're beautiful.
- Give it to me.|- I got it.
- He's gonna break my neck.|- He'll break your neck?
Just relax, Daddy. Come on.
You look beautiful anyway.
Cut. Cut. Cut.
There's the f***ing purse.|You happy now?
It doesn't make any difference...
since we won't know|what was in there.
- What are you talking about?|- You're father's been drinking.
Big deal. He's nervous.
Keep your voice down.|You wanna make a scene?
You're making a scene|in front of all these people.
Dancing for the first time|as husband and wife...
Mr. James Urbanski|and his lovely bride, Joyce.
Oh, great.|Everybody's staring at us.
Congratulations!
Have a lot of dough.
What?
- I don't hear you.|- I said, I'm sorry.
Come here.|I'll bite your hand.
- Aren't they a lovely couple?|- You're an ass.
Mr. and Mrs. James Urbanski.
I guess they drifted apart from there.
I can't see why they bothered.
Joyce jumped at the chance|to marry Jimmy.
In her mind, he was a very good catch.
And after the wedding, Joyce continued|to confide in you about her problems?
Yeah, she did.
Can you tell us|what her complaints were?
Comes and goes as he pleases.|High all the time.
He was a heavy drug user.|This was a sore point with Joyce?
Well, not at first,|but he never came around.
And then he would just lose it.
What do you mean exactly?
Well, he would...
he would pull a knife on her|and chase her around the room.
Punched her so hard once,|put her in the hospital.
When is the first time Joyce said|she wanted to get rid of her husband?
I remember a time,|I don't know if it was the first time.
- When this is blond, it'll be gorgeous.|- That'd be nice.
Cynthia, I'll do her. Stay off|your feet. Why don't you cop a squat.
Joyce, what are you talking?|I know my limit.
I don't want you popping your toast|with the store full of customers.
Where the hell is Cookie?
Cookie, I'll brain you.
I swear I was stuck|in the tunnel for an hour.
Well? What do you think?
What? Did you swallow a hand grenade?
Joyce, you don't know|what's happening anymore.
We're gonna see your mother now.
- Hey, Joyce. Take the baby.|- You're supposed to take care of him.
- I gotta take care of something.|- You're gonna shoot hoops?
I gotta take care of|what I gotta take care of.
- What the hell is this?|- We ran out of Pampers.
Are you crippled? Buy some.
No. It's your responsibility, Joyce.
What happened this morning?
- I don't wanna talk about it.|- What's that mean?
What?
Great, Joyce.
Could you hold him?
Really f***ing smart.
- Thank you.|- Real f***ing smart.
