Nobody's looking at anybody.

- Settle down. Come on.

- Don't touch me.

I'm not touching you, I'm guiding you.

All right. We need everybody to...

- Hey, Will.

- You came into my classroom?

- Why? I don't get this.

- No need to shout, Will. I'm right here.

I've done everything you asked

- the Santa Claus letter, the zoo...

- The man didn't show up?

No, I don't think so but,

look, I'm finished.

Will, you've been very helpful

and we appreciate it.

But what you've done

is only part of it, okay?

- We just need you to do one more thing.

- I think you made a mistake here.

I'm not cut out to the kind of activity.

- Yeah?

- I hope you're right.

Will, a promise is a promise, okay?

I'll be in touch.

- Oh.

- Excuse me. Hey, now, my bad, brother.

- It's all right.

- Oh.

- You dropped something.

- No, it's not mine.

Oh, sure it is.

Hey, this isn't mine.

- Will?

- Yeah?

We finished rehearsal early today.

You wanna go out for dinner?

Uh, sure.

- Hello.

- I assume you got the package.

Yes.

Okay, tomorrow morning

you'll have an issue with your car

and take the Number 7

Broad Street bus to school

get off at the Earhart Boulevard stop.

You'll see a pedestrian ramp that

goes down to the ground level.

Walczak takes the bus to work.

He arrives about 8:15.

Wait for him on the ramp.

As he passes

you're gonna bump him and knock him

over the edge. It'll be easy.

There's a low rail.

It's gonna look like a suicide.

Now, there's two security cameras

that cover that spot.

But don't worry about them,

they're both disabled.

- When it's done, you call me.

- No, I am done.

- Will...

- I followed that woman, those girls.

I'm done.

...all you have to say is

"the hungry rabbit jumps."

You got it?

The hungry rabbit jumps.

- What are you doing out here?

- I can't get reception inside.

What is it?

Does it have something to do with me?

I read that sometimes

the partner of the victim

has trouble readjusting.

Oh, God, no, no.

We're fine.

Then what is it?

- Will, whatever it is, you can tell me.

- It's nothing. I love you.

So take the Number 7

Broad Street bus to school

get off at the Earhart Boulevard.

Walczak takes the bus to work.

He arrives about 8:15.

You'll see a pedestrian ramp

that goes down to the ground level.

It'll be easy. There's a low rail.

It's gonna look like a suicide.

- Hey, you're late.

- I'm sorry.

But you're never late.

Okay, I get it.

How many times

do you want me to apologize?

And I wished that I had died

and far into the night

he crooned that tune.

The stars went out

and so did the moon.

The singer stopped playing

and went to bed

while the weary blues echoed

through his head.
