My Name Is Julia Ross Page #2

She didn't like it when

I kept calling her Julia.

Why'd you call her that?

Force of habit or something.

She wanted to know who Julia was.

I told her she'd be crazy about you.

I don't know why she would

get so upset about this, do you?

Well, yes, I do and no, I don't.

Julia, come out with me tonight and

help me figure out

why I'm not more upset.

I'd love to Dennis.

But not tonight.

Any other night but not tonight, I...

I've got a new job and I've just about

time enough to pack and get there.

I'm living on the place, you see.

- What kind of a job?

- Secretary to a Mrs. Hughes.

- And her son.

- Nursemaid to a child?

- No, he's about your age.

- Oh.

Well, I'll take you there,

where is it?

190 Henrick Square.

Oh but I don't think

you better take me there.

You see only this afternoon I told them

I had no family and

no young man.

Well, I'm not your young man.

Or am I?

I don't know.

Are you?

Bye, Dennis, I'll see you tomorrow night.

Friday, in the square at 7.30, right?

Right!

Mrs. Mackie,

Mrs. Mackie.

Mrs. M's gone to the cinema

Leaving me with the dirty dishes.

I'm leaving tonight Bertha.

This'll explain to Mrs. Mackie why I left.

I got a job with that new agency.

She can send a receipt to this address.

I've got to fly.

Goodbye and good luck, Bertha.

Thanks.

For nothing.

Thanks for something.

- Ah, good evening, Miss Ross.

- Good evening.

I'm the doorman tonight,

mother's gone to bed.

The maids have gone to the cinema and...

I hope you don't mind

my showing you to your room.

Not at all.

- Please, let me help you.

- Thank you.

- How long will she sleep?

- All the time we need.

These are all her things.

I want all her clothing destroyed,

every bit of it.

- The bag too?

- The bag too.

Mrs. Hughes, Ralph.

Ralph!

Put that knife away.

Try to remember,

if it weren't for your temper,

we wouldn't be in this

awful trouble today.

- I'm sorry.

- Very well.

Now we've all got jobs to do.

Let's do them.

- Looking for something sir?

- Yes, I was looking for someone.

You won't find them

in there, they're all gone.

- It seems deserted.

- Ooh, not a stick in the place.

They left last night or maybe

it was early this morning.

Nobody saw them go.

Do you know where they moved to?

Not me sir. People often move

like that, suddenly.

But Julia...

she would've left word.

- A relative, sir?

- My girl.

Would you care to come to the

station and make a statement?

No, it's probably nothing.

There must be a simple explanation.

Why of course, you'll probably be

hearing from her in the morning.

- Thank you, officer, good night.

- Good night.

But Mrs. Mackie, are you sure Julia
