And then try to

set fire to his house?

Then who?

We don't know.

Whoever it was

hasn't done it again.

It's been quiet as a graveyard

around here ever since.

Well..

Thanks anyway for

your help, sheriff

You bet.

Where is he? The maccleary

boy, where is he?

Hello?

Yes, it is.

What?

When?

Who is it?

It's dr. Odom.

Michael's missing.

Will you

let me sleep?

You have to

promise me first.

Will you

promise me?

All right.

You can

come out now.

I know

you're in here.

I know you are.

Missy, where is

that delivery boy?

What do you mean,

he's already delivered it?

I have turned this

kitchen upside down.

Missy, that boy ain't worth

the pottage you pay him.

I've turned the kitchen

upside down

And i'll be damned

if i can find

Hide nor crumb

of his order! Sh*t.

Bye-Bye.

Koko!

Come on in here,

sweetheart.

It is about time.

Well, come on.

Bring it on in, please.

Don't be dropping it.

You boys always

dropping things.

I guess you play with

yourselves too much.

Missy said no more

than $5 for the meat

And i expect her

to stand by it.

She said $5, and carry

the 2, that's 12...

All that's left

over is for you.

What kind of slave

wages is missy paying you?

You're the hungriest,

drooling somebody

I ever did see.

Sit down.

There's enough here to

feed an army, anyhow.

'Course, if we could

extend it a little.

Maybe if i crushed up

some saltines in it.

No, that's too pretty

to do that to it. I know.

Put a little of this in it

and that makes it real good.

How do you

like yours?

I like mine rare.

Makes waiting easy.

Oh, koko.

Koko!

Where the hell

are you, darling?

Koko!

What's that?

No, it can't be.

Not this time of year.

You hear it?

Do you hear it

Aagh!

Aagh!

Aagh!

Tipper, it's dinner.

Tipper!

Tipper-

Tipper.

Tipper, you bad boy.

Okay. Okay.

He's sleeping

peacefully now.

I think it best

we don't disturb him.

He'll be fine,

mrs. Maccleary

Don't worry.

Platt girl found him

Wandering around

over at their place.

Judging by

the scratches,

He must have come

through the woods.

He looks so good.

Lord, after al

l he's been through,

He actually looks

so much better.

Anyway, the scratches

are minor.

I told you there was nothing

wrong with our son.

Nothing that

some simple,

Decent medical care

couldn't cure.

Well...

Yes and no.

Right now, sleep's

the best medicine.

Well, we could all use

a little of that, doc.

There's nothing

you can do here.

I think you're right.

Morning, dexter.

Newspaper isn't open yet.

It's past 10:
00.

D such a thing hasn't happene

Since the night lionel's

house was torched.

Thank you, dexter.

Edwin?

The tests all seem
