Out of Time Page #3

No, no. l was diagnosed six months ago.

Chris increased the policy almost

a year ago, right after my 32nd birthday.

My mother was 33

when she died of cancer.

(car draws up)

- That Chris?

- He's here.

- Good, maybe he can explain this.

- No.

- Why not?

- Cos this is not the time.

When is the time? When is the time?

Please. l'm sorry.

- Hey.

- Hey.

l was just taking the trash out.

Thought you were working

a double tonight?

Yeah, l bet you did.

- How was the appointment on Saturday?

- Appointment?

- Yeah, with Dr Frieland.

- What? l didn't have an appointment.

- No?

- No.

- You're sure?

- l'm sure.

Cos Jay saw you go inside his office.

He said you went in with some other guy.

- l just stopped by, l had to ask a question.

- So, now you were there?

- l was there, but l had to ask a question.

- Here we go with the lies again.

- l'm not lying.

- Yes, you are!

(Ann screams)

- You're hurting me!

- Why do you think l do this, Ann?

(Chris) lt ain't my goddamn fault.

Hey, Chris.

How you doing, football player?

- Good. How you doing?

- l'm good.

Judy Anderson called, said

she saw a prowler. You see anything?

- Nah.

- No?

Uh-uh.

- What about your wife? She home?

- She didn't see anything.

- You didn't ask her, Chris.

- She didn't say anything.

Maybe l should ask her. Not that l don't

trust your mind-reading ability. Hey, Ann.

- l didn't see anything.

- OK?

OK. l'm just gonna check the perimeter.

- Go ahead.

- You see somebody you holler, OK?

- Oh, yeah.

- Ann?

Mm-hm.

You have a good night.

- We did it.

- You know this wasn't necessary?

No, no. My name shouldn't be on your

house. l'll buy my own in a few years.

All right.

(phone rings)

Chief Whitlock.

- (Ann) Hey, baby, it's me.

- Hey.

l think l found a way to go

to that clinic in Switzerland.

Right. Uh...

- Can you talk?

- Hold on.

- Forget it.

- Sorry.

No, no, no. l gotta go.

Tell her l say hi. Bye.

- Hello?

- ls this a bad time? Can you talk?

- Yeah. lt was nothing.

- Cos you gotta hear this. lt's incredible.

(Ann) OK. l name you the beneficiary

on my life insurance policy.

No, no, not me personally. You name

the Living Gift as your beneficiary,

after we purchase the policy from you.

And you... l mean the Living Gift,

collects on the policy when l die?

As the beneficiary, yes.

We collect on the policy.

So you make a profit if she dies.

ls that legal?

- We wouldn't be here if it wasn't.

- So, how much do l get?

l know it depends on how long

your medical staff says l have to live.

How about a ballpark figure?

- $750,000.

- l know.

Even if they have to repeat the treatment,

there'll be enough left to go somewhere.
