Freeze Frame Page #3

- You followed me.

- I've been waiting for you.

Where's your cameraman?

I sent him home hours ago

but I can always get him back.

No. I've already told you

my policy on interviews.

What about your policy

on reconstructions?

You're reconstructing

the Jasper murders.

Advance copy.

Due for transmission on the night

of the anniversary.

I thought you might like to take

a look at it.

So I can see myself being

stitched up again? Framed?

It's not that kind of reconstruction

Mr. Veil. Honestly.

- What other kind is there?

- Take a look and find out.

Am I in it?

- You're mentioned.

- But nobody's playing me?

- Brad Pitt was unavailable.

- What?

- Joke.

- I don't have time for this!

F***!

What I'm saying, Mr Veil

what I'm offering

is the chance for you

to play yourself!

No one likes to see an innocent man

entrapped by the police!

That's what I was.

What I am.

We could reconstruct your movements

on the night.

You could show us what you saw.

What you heard!

I didn't see anything.

Why are you so interested

in this case, anyway?

There are hundreds of unsolved murders

out there for you lot

to get your teeth into.

Even a cretin like Seger knows that.

Because Susan Jasper was my mother.

Moira and Maggie were my sisters.

I was staying at a friend's

the night it happened.

I don't believe you.

Then maybe you'll believe this.

Carter was my mother's maiden name.

I took it when I left school.

I'd never been allowed to work

on the Jasper case

if they'd known who I was.

Okay.

How many cameras are you running

in here?

In here?

Five.

In the entire place...

...90.

It was a crime

that shocked the nation.

Less than six hours after

this footage was filmed...

three of the family members

would be dead...

and a fourth would only survive after

extensive life-saving surgery.

For Susan Jasper, her husband Sam...

and their six-year-old twin daughters

Moira and Maggie...

the birthday celebrations would soon

turn to unimaginable horror.

It was here

in this isolated farmhouse,

that the killer struck between

10 PM and 12 midnight.

Someone's trying to get in.

- This your doing, isn't it?

- No. No one knows I'm here! I promise!

I've got a gun!

I didn't do

whatever you think I did!

Go! Go! Go!

Armed, wait! Stay here!

Frisk him.

He said he was armed.

Armed, eh?

Berretta Nine Millimeter, I'll wager.

Emeric!

Don't tell me.

I'm a sight for sore eyes.

That's what you're thinking, right?

No?

Well, you certainly are, Veil.

Seeing you there...

all vulnerable like that

almost makes me a believer.

- A believer?

- Visualization therapy.

Doctors say you've just got to visualize

the thing you most want in the world...
