Leave Her to Heaven Page #4

It just happened.

I was taking a walk with a girI.

We went down to Boston Wharf

and watched a freighter being loaded.

I liked the looks of her.

- The girI?

- No, the freighter.

She looked good to me

and she smelled good.

I didn't know where she was going, but

I knew I was going with her. And I did.

Mmm....

This is the tastiest sandwich

I've ever eaten.

- What is it?

- Turkey. Wild turkey.

- Ever hunted them?

- No, I haven't.

It's tricky shooting.

They're sort of scary, but they're so big

and clumsy, they hate to take wing.

It's a lot of fun.

I'd like to try it sometime.

- How about tomorrow?

- Well, if Glen has no other plans.

- I meant just the two of us.

- I'd love to.

Why did you come for me tonight?

Well, I don't know exactly. Everybody

assured me you'd be perfectly all right.

I guess it was just an impulse.

- Like the time you took the freighter?

- Yes.

You knew I was coming up

there tonight.

You were waiting for me,

weren't you?

Yes.

And you came, didn't you?

Well....

Good night.

Hello.

- What's going on up there?

- I'm just pruning and tying up the roses.

- I hope I wasn't interfering.

- Not at all. I'm glad you're here.

I was thinking about you.

Something you said the other night.

- What did I say?

- Something rather strange.

You said you'd been adopted

by Mrs. Berent.

Well, what's so strange about that?

Well, you didn't say

Mr. and Mrs. Berent.

- Weren't you adopted by both of them?

- Yes, of course.

- Why did you say Mrs. Berent?

- I don't know.

I suppose it was because

she suggested that...

She was alone so much

of the time, and I...

I mustn't keep you from your work.

- Be carefuI.

- Oh, I'm all right.

How's that for an entrance?

Perfect.

I'm delighted to see you.

- All of you.

- Thank you.

I do hope I've interrupted you

in your work.

You have, constantly, all morning.

How could I?

I haven't been with you till now.

Oh, yes, you have. I've been thinking

about you and about Quinton.

- Who told you his name?

- Glen Robie.

- How did he happen to tell you?

- I asked him.

- Why?

- Because I hated Quinton.

- Do you know him?

- No.

- Then why do you hate him?

- Because you knew him.

That's nice.

You going to hate everybody I know?

You've lost your ring.

No, I took it off an hour ago.

Forever.

Come on, hurry up!

I'll race you across.

One, two, three, go.

Thattaboy, Lin.

Come on, Lin, keep it up.

Come on.

- Lin's going to win.

No. Ellen.

Ellen always wins.

The winner!

Don't forget we have a date

after lunch.

Quiet, Fritz. Lie down.

What's the matter with you?

Oh, come in.

Hello, Robie.

Quiet, Fritz. Quiet.

Let me take your things.
