Pinocchio's Revenge Page #7

HOW LONG'S

IT BEEN LIKE THIS?

EVER SINCE THE DIVORCE.

WE'VE BEEN DRIFTING

FURTHER AND FURTHER APART.

I JUST DON'T KNOW

WHAT TO DO ANYMORE.

COULD YOU QUIT YOUR JOB AND

STAY HOME WITH HER FULL-TIME?

DOES WARREN PAY ALIMONY?

MM-MMM.

JUST CHILD SUPPORT.

I WAS MAKING MORE MONEY THAN

HE WAS WHEN WE SEPARATED.

THAT WAS ONE:

OF THE PROBLEMS.

WELL, YOU KNOW YOU COULD

ALWAYS MOVE IN WITH ME.

WHY NOT?

YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL

ABOUT YOU AND ZOE.

I KNOW.

I KNOW.

I LOVE THE OFFER.

BUT ZOE'S BEEN THROUGH

ENOUGH CHANGES FOR ONE YEAR.

HERE.

SPOON ME.

[SIREN]

LOOK,

THE BOTTOM LINE IS,

THE DECEASED WAS A

WELL-KNOWN PUSHER AND PIMP.

TO TELL THE TRUTH,

I DON'T SEE ANY JURY

FEELING ANY SYMPATHY

TOWARD HIM.

OH, GEE...

WOW.

UM, MAYBE THEY'LL

HAVE A CHANGE OF HEAR WHEN THEY HEAR

HOW HE DIED.

SEE, YOUR CLIENT, HE--HE

HUNG HIM ON A MEAT HOOK,

AND THEN HE TORTURED HIM

TO DEATH WITH A BLOWTORCH.

YOU KNOW, HE EVEN RECORDED

IT SO HE COULD LISTEN TO I AND ENJOY IT AGAIN

AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.

IT'S GREAT.

HERE, TAKE A LISTEN.

AAH!

AAH!

[CHUCKLING]

NO! PLEASE! GOD, NO!

OOH.

NO, PLEASE, GOD!

AAH!

THAT'S GOT TO HURT.

AAH!

[CHUCKLING]

AAH!

AAH!

[LAUGHING]

[RETCHING]

[WATER RUNNING]

HA HA...

AH, SO...

DO WE DEAL:

OR DO YOU STILL:

WANT TO GO TO COURT?

I NEVER HEARD:

MY CLIENT'S VOICE.

EXCUSE ME?

ON YOUR TAPE.

WITHOUT HIS VOICE,

YOUR TAPE IS WORTHLESS.

I'LL HAVE THE JUDGE

RULE IT INFLAMMATORY.

THE JURY:

WILL NEVER HEAR IT.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

GARRICK RESIDENCE.

SOPHIA, HI.

YEAH, IT'S ME.

LISTEN, I'M

GOING TO BE LATE,

SO DON'T HOLD

DINNER FOR ME.

I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT A THE I.N.S. THIS AFTERNOON.

REMEMBER?

TO RENEW MY WORK VISA.

OH, JEEZ,

I COMPLETELY FORGOT.

UM, LISTEN,

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

I'LL CALL DAVID AND SEE

IF HE CAN BABYSIT.

O.K., THANKS.

KAMINSKY'S LANDSCAPING.

HEY. IT'S ME.

LISTEN, I NEED YOU

TO DO ME A BIG FAVOR.

SO AFTER YOU STOLE

HIS HEROIN,

YOU SOLD IT ON THE

STREET YOURSELF?

NO, MAN. I GAVE IT AWAY

TO THE POOR AND NEEDY,

JUST LIKE ROBIN HOOD.

BUT THE STUFF:

WAS UNCUT.

THREE PEOPLE DIED

OF AN OVERDOSE.

HEY, THAT'S WHA THE BOX WANTED.

THE BOX?

YEAH.

YOU KNOW,

THE TELEVISION.

IT TOLD ME TO--

IT TOLD ME TO KILL HIM

AND HAND OUT HIS STUFF.

THE TELEVISION TOLD

YOU TO KILL THE PUSHER?

DAMN STRAIGHT.

I WOULDN'T HAVE

DONE IT OTHERWISE.

I LIKED THE GUY.

DO YOU MEAN YOU SAW A SHOW

ON VIGILANTES OR SOMETHING?

NO.

IT WASN'T NO DAMN SHOW.

THE BOX WASN'T EVEN ON.

ALL RIGHT.

I'M NOT CRAZY, LADY.

THE BOX DID TALK TO ME.

IT'S BEDTIME,

SWEETHEART.

GOOD NIGHT.

DO YOU WANT ME:

TO COME TUCK YOU IN?

NO, THANKS.

[ZOE]

STOP PLAYING AROUND NOW.
