Death and the Maiden Page #6

my entire collection.

Don't touch him!

- What is this?

- It's a miracle.

He's delivered himself like

a surprise Christmas present.

- What's going on?

- It's him.

- Who?

- The doctor.

The doctor who played

"Death and the Maiden."

- The doctor who...

- Yes. It's him.

You were blindfolded.

- The voice.

- His voice? That's it?

- That's it.

- That's it?

That's enough for me.

Paulie, you're ill.

- I'm not ill.

- You're ill.

All right, but I can be ill

and recognize a voice.

Jesus f***ing Christ!

Are you trying to kill me?

It's him.

I'm telling you, it's him.

Your memory of a voice

doesn't prove anything.

His voice, his laugh...

his favorite phrases.

I would recognize him anywhere

from his pet phrases.

It may be a teeny-weeny thing,

but that's the real, real truth.

- Paulie, this isn't funny.

- No, it isn't funny... not a bit.

He's bleeding.

Want me to clean you up, Doctor?

My angel of mercy?

"She can take more.

"Give the b*tch

another five volts.

"Her sweet c*nt is still wet."

Paulie, this is about me.

You're angry with me.

About you?

I knew you were vain, Gerardo.

You're angry because

I ignored your feelings...

because I said yes

to the commission.

I know his smell.

Remember that? Remember?

You like my love bites.

You told me so.

You hungry, b*tch?

You want some meat?

I'll give you some meat.

I'll give you

a big, fat sausage.

Christ, Paulina.

That's how

your new buddy talked to me.

This has got to stop.

Even if he is guilty, you can't

torture him like this.

Torture? Head

of the president's commission...

you call this torture?

You know so little

about your subject.

Give me the gun.

As you would say... I'm sorry.

While you're holding the gun,

we have nothing to discuss.

The minute I give up the gun,

all discussion will end.

Paulina, please.

Stop saying my name

as if I'm a child.

You're behaving like a child,

as if there are no consequences.

What you're doing

will destroy any hope...

of exposing the real criminals.

He is the real criminal.

Listen to me.

I'm in no hurry. I'm listening.

What revolted me most

about the old regime...

You can call them fascists.

I won't tell the press.

Let me finish!

What revolted me was that

they ignored the evidence...

and never allowed the accused

to defend themselves.

No matter how sure you are...

no matter how terrible

the accusations...

he has the right

to defend himself.

But I have no intention of

denying him that right, Gerardo.

I'll give him a chance

to defend himself.

What are you talking about?

He's tied to a chair.

Look who I've gotten

to be his attorney...

one of the most talented

in the nation...
