The Note Page #3

So, why not write about how you,

the "heart healer",

feel about loss?

That doesn't work for me.

Why not?

It just doesn't.

Talk about your perfect

opportunity to write with emotion.

I said no!

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to snap at you.

You know what?

I think I'll work on this

at my place.

Maybe a single serving

can-o-soup

can inspire a little passion.

Macgruder!

I can't talk.

I gotta find a bridge

to jump off.

So the column's going

well then?

I am totally screwed.

I'm a dry well.

I have no idea what to do.

Just do your job, Peyton,

which means just like me

and every other columnist,

you may have to pry open

some doors

you'd rather leave closed.

Is that how you earned

the prize?

I earned my pulitzer

the old fashioned way.

Hard work.

Dumb luck.

...pt 848. The f.A.A. Announced

early this morning

that the cause of the accident

is most likely due

to an electrical fire

on-board the aircraft.

The pilot apparently

reported trouble

minutes before

the fateful crash

that brought the airplane down.

Speculation has it

that the pilot intentionally

diverted the plane

away from populated areas,

a strong indication

that he knew-

so they did know.

They did have time.

Come here...

Look at you.

What would I have said

if I only had time

for one last thought?

Torming)

Peyton macgruder?

I'm sorry, ma'am,

we have some bad news.

I'm afraid your husband's

been in an accident.

yes, in middleborough

for Kingston danville.

Thanks.

It's Peyton macgruder.

I'm... did I wake you?

I'm sorry.

look, I have something

I have to talk to you about.

Why don't you come over

in the morning,

I'll cook you breakfast.

Nice job on

the Christmas decorations.

What Christmas

decorations?

My point exactly.

Well, who's gonna

appreciate it?

My cat?

Wow, macgruder,

this is how you do

over easy?

I'd hate to see

well done.

Here.

Kills the carbon taste.

Well, you are a regular

domestic diva,

aren't you?

Sorry, I'm a little bit

out of practice,

but, hey,

the price is right.

And the waitress

is cute.

Okay.

So what do you think?

Okay.

There was a huge explosion

and a fire.

Could a plastic baggie

and a piece of paper

survive all of that?

I don't know.

I'm asking you.

I suppose anything

is possible.

This piece of life vest

washed up right next to it.

So if I can get

the f.A.A. To confirm

that this came

from flight 848,

I think it is reasonable

to assume that this did too.

Well, they've been

finding stuff

all up and down the shore

so...

Yeah, I mean,

it's reasonable.

Right,

so what do I do?

What do you want

to do?

Read it.

What's this stuff

inside the baggie?

Cookie crumbs.

It's addressed to "t".
