Nightwatch Page #4

---

You f***ed a prostitute?

Jesus, what was it like?

It was fascinating.

She did everything I asked.

Everything.

I'd say, "Stand over there,"

she'd say, "Yes, Martin. "

I'd say, "Lay down,"

she'd say, "Yes, Martin. "

What?

- I told her I was you.

- You said you were me. Why?

How would she know

who the f*** you are?

Back at the bar,

you were excited by that.

It was a rush. You felt good.

You felt alive, didn't you?

- Yeah, sure.

- I didn't feel anything. Nothing.

A year ago, I would've felt like you.

I would've felt hyped up, flushed.

But, it's like

my tolerance is increasing

and I can't get that feeling any more

and I have to get that feeling.

I just don't get that feeling

and I need it.

I have to, too.

Do you?

Challenge me.

- OK, do it with Joyce.

- What?

- Do it.

- Yeah, yeah!

Come on. What, do you think

this is just for fun?

And we invite her out, OK?

- Katherine.

- Katherine will never know. Come on.

Find an excuse, OK? Friend?

Buddy?

OK.

You told her you were me? F***.

Why do you have to rehearse

in the morning?

Alan likes morning rehearsals.

- Yeah? Well, that guy's a moron.

- Well, he speaks highly of you.

Like I said, the guy's a genius.

- Come on. You know I can't be alone.

- You can.

You got bad breath.

Call me tonight.

You'll be asleep.

Wake me.

Sh*t.

- Did I scare you?

- No.

I'm sorry. Inspector Cray.

Martin Bells.

- You new here?

- Yeah.

- Law school?

- Yeah, yeah. Last semester, I hope.

That's fascinating for some reason.

It has something to it.

He's dead and he's going to die.

I think his name was Louis Paine,

if I'm not mistaken.

Sitting on death row, waiting.

We could really use one right now.

- A death row?

- No, a murder.

Wait a minute. There's been another?

They're bringing her in now.

- Have you been in there?

- No.

- You should have a look.

- Nah.

No, you should. Otherwise you'll just

be haunted here working at night.

Nothing cures a fantasy

like a quick dose of reality.

You think so?

Go on.

OK.

Are you all right?

It was just feet. Just feet.

Yeah.

I've been meaning to ask

what they do with them.

By the way, I saw you on TV.

Yeah? How was I?

- Are you on to him?

- We're getting closer.

How do you know

it's just the one guy?

- Can I trust you?

- Well, yeah, absolutely.

Can I trust you with

a bit of privileged information?

- Yeah.

- He has a signature.

- Signature?

- He takes their eyes.

- Good evening, guys.

- This one just quit smoking.

Deputy Inspector Bill Davies,

this is the new night watchman.

- What's your name again?

- Martin Bells.

Deputy Inspector Bill Davies.

Bill, Bells. Bells, Bill.

Most people,
