Pickman's Muse Page #3

Synopsis: Who is Goodie Hines? Why did he gouge out the eyes of his victims? Why did they beg him to do it? What could possibly have inspired such horrific imagery in his drawings and paintings that they've been banned--only to be duplicated to seemingly impossible detail by mild-mannered recluse, Robert Pickman, who claims never to have met Goodie nor seen his work, but refuses to reveal his sources? Dare we delve the mind of one dissolving into madness, to uncover his muse?

ART DEALER:
He was painting like an out of control fire.

ART DEALER:
At times l almost though the was afraid of what

would happen if he should stop...

ART DEALER:
But nothing kept him from getting his worlds

onto canvas.

ART DEALER:
Even when he ran out of supplies,

he found a way...

ART DEALER:
When he ran out of canvases, he simply painted

overwhat was his first obsession ...

PlCKMAN:
lt's the church... The church on Federal Hill.

ART DEALER:
lt's almost like a watermark for any of

Goodie's final work.

GUARD:
Dr. Dexter, l'm glad to see you . l've been paging you .

DR. DEXTER:
ls Doctor Meyer alright?.

GUARD:
Yes.

DR. DEXTER:

GUARD:

DR. DEXTER:

Are you all right?

RlCHARD:
Yes. l'll be fine.

RlCHARD:
lt's just a scratch; it'll heal.

RlCHARD:
l'm not so sure about my pride.

DR. DEXTER:
What happened?

RlCHARD:
l wasn 't paying attention . l was concentrating on my

notes, and l let Goodie get too close...

RlCHARD:
He managed to get my fountain pen from me.

DR. DEXTER:
Oh, Richard..!

RlCHARD:
l know, l know. l feel so foolish.

DR. DEXTER:
That's all l need today, Goodie Hines with a pen .

DR. DEXTER:
You know how hard it's going to be to

get that pen from him?

DR. DEXTER:
We might as well be trying to unscrew

all his limbs.

RlCHARD:
l'm sorry. l feel like a first year resident.

DR. DEXTER:
No, the important thing is you 're all right.

DR. DEXTER:
l want you to get down to the infirmary and have

that hand cleaned thoroughly.

DR. DEXTER:
We'll take care of this...

DR. DEXTER:

RlCHARD:
Are you sure?

DR. DEXTER:

RlCHARD:
And don 't think about keeping that pen ...

RlCHARD:
lt was a gift from my fatherwhen l got my degree.

DR. DEXTER:
l'll get the pen . l might ask forthe degree back.

RlCHARD:
Ouch, that hurt doctor.

DR. DEXTER:
lt was meant to...

DR. DEXTER:
Goodie, we can 't let you keep that pen .

DR. DEXTER:
We need him sedated and restrained.

GOODlE:

GOODlE:

places that man refuses to see...
