he came in when the batteries fell out.

Don't you see? He's been moving

and talking without any batteries.

- What are you talking about?

- How I found out the doll is alive.

I threatened

to throw him into the fireplace...

when all of a sudden,

he came alive.

I dropped him, and he ran out

of the apartment.

Good night, Mrs. Barclay.

Wait a minute!

I am telling you the truth!

- He killed Maggie and Caputo.

- Look, I sympathize with you.

I hated what happened in there today,

but lying is--

Lying? Does this look

like I'm lying?

- How did you get those?

- Chucky bit me.

Oh, for God's sake!

All right, don't believe me!

- Where you goin'?

- To find Chucky!

How you gonna do that?

I'll start with the peddler

I bought him from.

That isn't a good part of town!

You hear me?

You don't want to go down there

at this time of night.

Goddamn it!

What's she doin' here?

Hey, excuse me.

Mister!

I'm not gonna hurt you.

Do you remember me?

I bought a doll from you in back of

Carson's department store yesterday.

- Doll?

- A Good Guy doll.

- You sold it to me. Do you remember?

- What about it?

- Where did you get it?

- What will you give me if I tell you?

I don't have much.

You're welcome to whatever I have.

It's not enough.

What else you got?

- That's all I've got.

- All you got?

- What are you-- Yes.

- That's not all you got.

- Wait a minute.

- No, you got a lot.

- Wait! No!

- Pig!

- He's a cop!

- What about the rest of you?

You wanna party too?

You want to answer the lady now?

Where did you get that doll?

I don't know nothin'

about no doll.

You won't know nothin'

about nothin'! Now talk!

A burned-out toy store on Wabash!

That's where I got it.

Get outta here!

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Wait. Something the peddler said

upset you. What was it?

I just told you-- nothing.

Goddamn it! My son's life

is at stake! What was it?

The place where he said he got the doll,

Charles Lee Ray died there.

Who?

The Lake Shore Strangler.

He's partners with Eddie Caputo.

- Where are you going?

- Wabash and Van Buren.

It's an abandoned wreck of a store.

Why don't you believe me?

It was struck by lightning

the night Charles Lee Ray died.

- How do you know that?

- Because I was there! I killed him!

Why didn't you tell me?

It's not exactly the kind of thing

you tell someone.

Let me take you home.

You need some sleep.

- Did he say anything?

- Who?

- Charles Lee Ray.

- He threatened to kill me and Caputo.

Sorry you couldn't find anything

to help Andy.

I really am.

But I did. I found out

that Chucky is Charles Lee Ray.

The only thing I don't know

is how he got inside the doll.

- Good night.
