Black Widow Page #5

- How do you do?

She's with the Post-Intelligencer.

They're doing a piece on our

more prominent women volunteers.

I know your managing editor well.

You're on metro desk, features?

I'm not with the paper, actually.

I'm freelance.

I was hoping they would

pick up an article.

I'm working in the storeroom.

- Why don't we talk there?

- Fine.

Please don't touch anything down here.

- Your home phone?

- Well, I don't live here in town.

- So you're staying at the...?

- The Hilton.

- Look...

- Airport?

Downtown.

Just one question.

Why did you lie back there

about the paper?

I'm sorry. I really am, I...

See, I'm just starting out.

I thought an article on powerful

women might sell to Cosmo...

...or Woman 's Day, and so...

- Oh, yeah, I see, I see.

I never had to prove myself like that.

It must be hard for you.

My wife's a very private person,

and I respect that.

But let me talk to her, and we'll see

if we can't help you out.

That's very understanding of you.

Anything else?

I think that's it, thanks.

Hey! Hey, Leo, will you fix that screen?

Okay, I'll fix it!

- All right!

Come on, man!

- I'll fix it!

Another movie on survival?

Just because

you can 't see a suspect...

... doesn 't mean he can 't see you.

There's a resemblance, but I've seen

strangers who look like twins.

You're looking for a reason to kiss

this off because you can't stomach it.

Yeah, what are you looking for?

Why do you wanna bury this lady?

Two guys die of some curse?

Ondine's Curse. They died in their sleep.

They stopped breathing.

When McCorey dies

of the same thing, call me.

You said the wives were out of town.

She poisoned them.

She put it in some...

Something she thought

they'd drink or eat.

These boys were autopsied.

You got cops in New York or Dallas

wanna dig up the bodies?

No, but you want me to tell one

of the richest men in this state...

...that some Fed thinks

his wife's a murderer...

...when nobody thinks

there's a homicide.

You're right. You solved

the whole case from your desk.

Why not take the rest of the day off?

You're absolutely right.

Hello, Mrs. McCorey?

Would you come to the station

and tell us if you ever killed anybody?

No, ma'am, we don't have any evidence.

I just spent the whole morning

showing you the evidence!

If that's what the Justice Department

calls evidence...

...then that is the scariest part

of this whole conversation.

The thing is, I know I'm right.

So, what do you think?

The playing's better than the piano.

Oh, right.

I'll get a tuner out here tomorrow.

Oh, a young woman stopped

by the museum.

She's researching an article about you.

I liked her.

She seemed really very sweet.
