of the hit-and-run vehicle...

ran down the teacher

in cold blood.

- Did you hear?

- What happened?

This is so cool.

It's just like a horror movie.

It's on. I'll call you back.

Mr. Paul Stubbins was

38 years old.

Whoever did this

should get the death penalty.

So far only one eyewitness

has surfaced.

Young lady, what did you see?

- It was a blue car.

- That's Lu-Ann Hodges.

- She's a stoner!

- A what?

A pothead.

A blue station wagon.

That's like your car, Beverly!

I'm not that bad a driver!

It was sickenin', man!

It flattened Mr. Stubbins

just like a pancake.

- God, man, puke time, man!

- Look at her hair.

Turn it off, honey.

Can't believe

Mr. Stubbins is dead.

You said you hated him.

He was an a**hole,

but he didn't deserve to die.

I can't stop thinking

about that poor teacher.

Good night, honey.

Don't read too late.

We've got a big day

with the birds tomorrow.

I've identified

every little birdie...

we're gonna see tomorrow.

Night, honey.

Don't I get

a good-night kiss?

I thought with all the sadness

you wouldn't want to-

We have to concentrate

on life, Eugene.

It's all right with me.

You want to, honey?

- You think the kids are awake?

- We could be very quiet.

I love that you're my wife.

You're not so bad yourself,

cuckoo bird.

You bring me such peace.

Don't wake the kids!

Honey, you're hot tonight!

Be quiet!

Honey, I'm ready...

now!

There's Dee Dee.

She's my favorite starling.

She's here every morning

for breakfast.

Well, honey, starlings are originally

from Europe. you know.

No wonder Dee Dee's hungry.

It's a long journey

all the way here to Baltimore.

It's Ralph Sterner.

I've got a dental emergency here.

This goddamn tooth

is killing me.

Mr. Sterner,

if you'll just call my office...

I'm sure we can see you

on Monday.

Monday?

This is Betty Sterner.

He'll die by Monday!

The roots are infected.

He might have a heart attack.

All right. Ten o'clock.

I'm sorry, honey.

But the birds will still be there

next week.

It's okay.

I understand.

I'll go fix breakfast.

God!

Mom, what's the matter?

It's just time to get up,

that's all.

Don't want you to be late

for work.

You scared me.

Honey, what's wrong?

I'm stood up.

I'll kill that bastard!

I mean it. He should be dead,

that lousy creep.

He told me he'd be here.

I'll kill him.

Don't use words

unless you mean them, honey.

- It's him!

- No, it's the police.

Morning, officers.

Good morning, Mrs. Sutphin.

Hi, Detective Pike.

Morning.

I presume you know about the death

of Mr. Stubbins.

A fine man. A good teacher.

Contusions, fractures,

rupture of numerous vital organs.

What a mess.

No, honey, that's Scotty.
