[ ROCKABILLY MUSIC PLAYING

ON RADIO ]

[ Garbled ] WELL, I GO A GIRL THAT'S REALLY GREAT

[ SINGING INDISTINCTLY ]

WHEN SHE'S NEAR,

MY HEART STARTS TO BEAT

[ SINGING INDISTINCTLY ]

JOHN, LET'S GO TO BED.

I WANT TO TAKE:

THE BOAT OUT ALONE.

I'LL BE UP LATER.

NO, I'LL GO WITH YOU.

TELL ME THA SHE LOVES ME TOO

[ SINGING INDISTINCTLY ]

WELL, THEY'RE ONLY ONES

THAT I'LL EVER LOVE

SHE'S THE ONE

THAT I'M THINKING OF

I SEE SPARKS:

OH, EVERY TIME I'M NEAR HER

JOHN...

THAT WILL IS NO GOOD.

YOUR MOTHER'S STILL ALIVE.

WE CAN TALK HER:

INTO CHANGING IT.

YOU WERE ALWAYS TOO GREEDY,

LOUISE.

I JUST DON'T LIKE

TO SEE HER EXPLOITING YOU.

HONEY, SHE'S LEAVING ALL OF

YOUR FAMILY'S MONEY TO CHARITY

IN THE NAME OF:

THIS MYSTERIOUS KATHLEEN.

IT'S RIDICULOUS.

YOUR MOTHER IS CRAZY.

YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING

ABOUT IT.

I KNOW:

THAT MUSIC'S TERRIBLE.

[ VOLUME INCREASES ]

OH, WHEN SHE'S NEAR

I CAN HARDLY SPEAK

...AND MY KNEES GET WEAK

JOHN, YOU'RE ROWING TOO HARD.

LET ME ROW.

YOU'RE CONCERNED ABOUT ME,

LOUISE.

IS IT MY HEART?

STOP IT.

YOU'RE ONLY A MEMBER

OF THE FAMILY:

AS LONG AS:

YOU'RE MY WIFE.

IF I DIE BEFORE MOTHER,

YOU'RE A STRANGER...

[ Straining ]

ENTITLED TO NOTHING.

NOW YOU'VE DONE IT.

LOOK AT ME WITH STARRY EYES

AND THEN I GE ALL HYPNOTIZED

WHERE ARE THE PILLS?

I-IN THE COAT.

SHE'S THE ONE

THAT I'M THINKING OF

I SEE SPARKS:

WELL, EVERY TIME

I'M NEAR HER

IT'S EMPTY, YOU IDIOT!

MY HEART STARTS:

BEATING MADLY:

WELL, WHERE DID

SHE CAUSE THE PAIN?

[ SINGING INDISTINCTLY ]

LOOK AT ME WITH STARRY EYES

ROW FASTER, LOUISE.

[ CHUCKLES ]

IF I DIE, THERE'S NOTHING

IN IT FOR YOU.

SHUT UP.

[ GASPING ]

[ ROCKABILLY MUSIC CONTINUES ]

JOHN?

JOHN!

[ SLAP! ]

UGH!

AAH!

[ GASPING ]

[ SINGING INDISTINCTLY ]

NOW WHAT DO I DO?

YOU'RE THE ONE

THAT I'M THINKING OF

I GOT TO GET RID OF HIM.

WELL, I GOT A GIRL

THAT'S REALLY GREAT

...AND I START TO SHAKE

WHEN SHE'S NEAR,

MY HEART STARTS TO BEAT

[ SINGING INDISTINCTLY ]

THEY'RE THE ONES

THAT I'LL EVER LOVE

SHE'S THE ONE

THAT I'M THINKING OF

I SEE SPARKS:

OH, EVERY TIME

I'M NEAR HER

I FEEL SO STRANGE

MY HEART STARTS:

BEATING MADLY:

WHERE DID SHE CAUSE

THE PAIN?

[ SINGING INDISTINCTLY ]

LOOK AT ME WITH STARRY EYES

AND THEN I GE ALL HYPNOTIZED

[ MUSIC DISTORTING ]

[ EERIE MUSIC PLAYING ]

[ ENGINE TURNS OVER ]

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

I'LL HAVE TO GET RID

OF HIS THINGS,

SAY HE WENT BACK TO NEW YORK

ON BUSINESS OR SOMETHING.

[ FROGS CROAKING ]

"MOTHER...

"I AM TERRIBLY SORRY...

"BUT I HAVE RECEIVED...

"AN URGENT...

"WIRE FROM NEW YORK.

"SINCE I MUST LEAVE TONIGHT...

"I WILL BE FORCED TO MISS...

"KATHLEEN'S...

"MEMORIAL CEREMONY.

"BUT YOU ALL KNOW...

"MY THOUGHTS

"WILL BE WITH HER,

IN LOVING MEMORY."

[ SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING ]

"YOUR LOVING SON, JOHN."

I'LL PACK THE THINGS

HE WOULD HAVE TAKEN --

A SUIT, SOME SHIRTS.

I'M FINALLY RID OF HIM.

I KNOW I CAN HANDLE HIS MOTHER

WITHOUT HIM AROUND.

SHE'S HALF-CRAZY ANYWAY.

I CAN GET RID OF HER,

ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.

I'D BETTER WATCH OU FOR HIS BROTHERS, THOUGH,

ESPECIALLY THE OLDER ONE,

RICHARD.

THE TYPEWRITER --

HE WOULDN'T FORGET THAT.

HE'D HAVE TO WRITE LETTERS

ON THE PLANE.

I WONDER IF HE'LL RO UNDERWATER.

EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING.

[ SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING ]

I'LL MAKE HER CHANGE

THAT RIDICULOUS WILL.

"YOUR LOVING SON, JOHN."

FAT JOHN.

[ FROGS CROAKING ]

I HOPE EVERYTHING WORKS OU WITH JOHN'S BUSINESS.

I'M SURE EVERYTHING

WILL BE FINE.

YOUR BROTHER'S ALWAYS HAD A WAY

OF SOLVING HIS OWN PROBLEMS.

[ METAL TINGS ]

OH, I'M SORRY.

WE'RE IN YOUR WAY.
