The Beast with Five Fingers Page #4

---

He'd sit down and play through the

compositions and the audience would cheer.

Then I found out

that you'd written them.

It was YOU I was listening to.

It's you I hear now,

when Francis plays your music.

There's genius in it.

Genius... all I did was transcribe Bach.

Gave him a chance to play again

Gave him new hope.

But it was a trick, a stunt,

for a one-handed pianist.

Don't say that.

It's beautiful... it's inspired.

Then it must have been

my last inspiration.

I haven't been able to write

anything since.

What had I become?

Court jester to a cripple,

dependent upon his charity.

A dealer in modern antiques.

You'll find yourself again.

You say that you love me, yet you

want me to go away alone.

I do love you Julie.

But what have I to offer you?

Have I asked for anything?

I've something to offer you.

Hope.

Courage... devotion.

A new life.

Julie!

Julie!

Julie!

Did you call, Mr Ingram.

Anything I can do?

Julie... I want Julie

Where is she?

Don't you know?

I know where she is.

Well tell me... where is she?

She's in the garden.

She's not alone.

Mr Conrad is with her.

- Bruce? - Yes.

I think Mr Ingram...

they're going away together.

I'm afraid she will leave you.

Hilary... why do you lie to me?

I'm not lying.

- I'm telling you the truth.

- No!...

The truth is that you don't want

anybody around here, close to me.

I heard what they said

in the garden.

I couldnt help but hear them.

- You are a liar!

- I am not a liar!

- You're afraid to hear the truth.

- Go away... I won't listen to you.

You must listen to me.

I even remember what they said.

He said:
"He's had his life.

You have the right to yours. "

And she said:
"Yes I'll have to go. "

He took her in his arms.

And he kissed her!

He kissed her!

Do you hear? He kissed her!

Julie!... Julie!

Help!

She can't hear you, Hilary.

She's out in the garden,

isn't she?

She's out in the garden

with Bruce Conrad.

She couldnt hear ME!

So how could she possibly

hear YOU?

Mr Ingram... Mr Ingram...

Mr Ingram!

Get out of my house!

I never want to

see you again!

Get out!

Thank you, Antonio.

I think you can go to bed now.

He seems to be resting quietly.

Good night, signorina.

I had to wait 'til Mr Ingram

fell asleep.

He really did hurt you.

His fingers are like claws.

I'm sure if you hadn't come,

he would have killed me.

How did it happen?

I don't know...

He asked for you, and I said

you were in the garden...

So he started choking me.

I'm told to get out

of his house.

He didn't mean what he said.

I'll talk to him in the morning.

Julie!

Julie!

Julie!

Julie!

Julie.

Ah... my old friend the Commissario.

Are you on guard against illegal sales
