the switch on the chair.

Well, who's she

expect me to arrest?

She got anyone

particular in mind?

Nathan redfield.

You try to talk her

out of that?

'Cause you know

that's just crazy.

I know it.

That's what she believes.

- You want me to talk to her?

- Ain't no point in it.

So what'd you need

to talk to me about?

Did you know Margaret

was pregnant?

Why would you say that?

Coroner in pensacola

found out

when he examined her

Saturday night.

She was in her fourth month.

Just don't tell grandma,

okay?

I got to or else you got to.

It's gonna come out.

Does it have to?

What does that have to do

with Margaret getting killed?

Whoever got

a 16-year-old girl pregnant

is gonna be

in a lot of trouble.

And since Margaret didn't have

any enemies anybody knew about,

might've been the father

who killed her.

I was hoping

you knew about it.

Maybe your grandma

knows about it.

Maybe Margaret

confided in her.

I doubt it.

I just really doubt it.

You bit me all over.

Now I'm gonna go

and have to tell daddy

I got trapped under

a ten-girl pyramid.

Your daddy's never gonna see

all them bruises.

Well...

Somebody else might.

You better be making a joke.

If I find out that it's true,

headlines are gonna read

"cheerleader smothered to death

with her own pom-poms."

I was only kidding.

But now I won't

be able to wear

a bathing suit for the next

five days and four nights.

What time you suppose

it's getting to be?

I don't know.

I suppose... hey!

What is it?

Something dripped on me.

It's just water, I guess.

But...

Damn it, belinda!

There is something

up in that tree.

There's no one in that tree.

There was someone up there.

Wait, what did he

look like then?

It looked like a woman.

There's nothing in that tree.

It's so dim in here,

that moss could look

like anything you want it to.

I don't care if you believe me

or not.

But I would appreciate it

to no end

if you'd put down

that bottle of bourbon

and get me out of here.

Just listen.

There's nothing there.

You just got scared.

Damn it, Nathan, you were

just as scared as I was!

No, I wasn't.

Now go on.

Go on, I'll be right behind you.

But don't start off until

i get in the scout

and get it started,

do you hear me?

- Okay.

- Yeah?

Okay!

- What is it?

- God.

Nathan, that seat

is soaking wet!

Damn it, belinda.

What is it?

I don't know what it is.

Just put a blanket

down on it.

Go on, get out of here!

Nobody is forgetting

about Margaret, Ms. Larkin.

Just right now, we have no idea

who could've killed her.

Nathan redfield killed her!

God!

I know Jerry told you

Margaret

was gonna have a baby.

Now, do you think
