The Last of Robin Hood Page #3

Sorry to intrude, ladies.

Now at last I find out

where you've been hiding.

I was hoping to have a word

with Miss Aadland.

If you don't mind.

Excuse us, please.

Who was that?

Here.

Beverly, I can't stop

thinking about you.

I lie awake, nights. Really.

I... I haven't slept in days.

I don't understand what the point is.

You already got what you wanted.

What I want is to get to know you,

to spend time with you,

enjoy your company, that's all.

Look, I know my reputation

precedes me, but I promise you,

whatever you've read in the press,

I swear, the man standing before you now,

is a different animal entirely.

Please, believe me.

What's that?

Oh, it's a... It's a question mark.

Yes, I know. Why?

Because I question everything.

Even at my age,

I'm still trying to figure it all out.

I... just never believe

what I've been told.

Someone tells me, "You can't do that,"

I say, "Why the hell not?"

And then I go ahead and bloody well do it,

and I get into a bit of trouble.

But I'm just endlessly curious.

I'm especially curious about you.

- Who is it?

- Hi, Mrs. Aadland. It's Tedd Thomey.

- If I could just ask you a few questions.

- Why don't you all go to hell?

It's Tedd Thomey, ma'am. We met

at the airport. I gave you my card.

Yeah, I'm not a reporter,

I'm the guy that writes the books.

Look, I know it's been

a difficult time for you, ma'am.

I'm a straight-up guy,

I won't misrepresent you.

Things have been so crazy

since Errol died.

It's been a very hard time for me.

- I was very close to him, too, you know.

- I can understand, yeah.

- Are you okay?

- Oh, I have an artificial leg.

My so-called handicap

in an accident, many years ago.

I'm sorry.

I assume you've been reading

all the BS they've been printing.

I mean, they just take your words

and they twist them around

until you say whatever

it is they want you to say.

- Yeah. That's the gutter press for you.

- I know. I know, but...

I'm worried that Bev will see it.

Where is Beverly?

She's...

She's staying with Errol's lawyer.

He has a real swanky pad

with a gate and everything and...

- it keeps the press away.

- The press.

You know what, Mrs. Aadland?

Forget about what the press are saying.

This book is the chance

to tell your side of the story.

It'll put it down

for the record permanently.

And I'm certain you have

a great story to tell me.

Okay, let's get started.

Just speak normally, relax. I'm gonna

start with a few questions here...

Well, there's one thing

I wanna make clear right off,

and that is that my baby was a virgin

the day she met Errol Flynn

and nothing makes me sicker

than those dried up old biddies
