Basket Case Page #5

some of the tenants claim to have

heard noises coming from this room.

Like someone on a rampage.

- Any idea who it was?

- No, I don't know. I was out.

What happened?

That was an accident. It happened last

night. We went out for burgers, and...

We?

No, me. Just me.

And you don't own any pets?

No dogs or anything?

No.

What's in the basket?

Nothing...

Duane, where are you from?

Upstate. Glens Falls. Upstate.

Do you always leave

money lying around like that?

Uh, must have

fallen off the dresser.

- And you've been out all day?

- Yes, since about 9:00.

- Alone or ...?

- With someone.

If you have to prove where you were

and who you're with, would you be able to?

Sure.

- How long you going to be staying here?

- A few days.

If I wanted to come back again

and look around, will that be alright?

Sure.

Okay, Mr. Bradley.

Thank you very much.

Listen, if you think of

anything that may help us,

I'd appreciate you

getting in touch with us.

Okay, sure.

Are you crazy?

You could have us arrested!

No, no. You can't blame this on me.

I didn't know he would break you.

What?

Wait a minute.

Hold it!

All right, all right.

Okay yes, I was with a girl.

Yes, the receptionist.

Yes, I lied.

No, I didn't go to Dr. Kutters.

I knew if I told you, you'd get mad.

But I didn't do anything, she just

showed me around, that's all.

I'm not deserting you!

I just want some time for myself.

Look. I've helped you with

everything so far, haven't I?

Killing Lifflander, was your idea.

Coming to New York to get

the other two, was your idea.

Now wait a minute!

Let me finish!

I'm not saying that!

Of course you're right.

They deserve what they get.

All I'm saying, it's been your

idea every step of the way.

But I've helped you, haven't I?

Never desert you, not after all

we've been through, you know that.

We'll always be together.

What the hell are you doing here?

Wait, no, don't tell me.

It's the first bar you came in, right?

Hi, Casey!

You really doing New York in style.

First the broad and now this place.

- Aw, you come here often?

- I don't even drink!

That's obvious. You're not still

upset about this afternoon, are you?

That isn't half of it...

I'm so messed up

about a lot of things.

And now this girl I have met...

I don't know what's going on anymore.

Tell you what.

Why don't you and that...

picnic basket of yours,

join me at the back table?

I've got some heavy boozing to do

and looks like you can use

some good company. Come on.

Now tell me...

What do you do in Glens Falls?

- I'm a sorter.

- A sort of what?

No, a letter sorter.

I sort mail.

You're a mailman?

That's great!

There is something else

I've been dying to ask you...
