with

her just like

trouble here

see

see we're right behind the p

Philip went into a house in rud de

martio but he didn't stay long he's

obviously looking for someone huh he

moving along the street now to our you

right thank you

Luca is this your

headquarters yes for the moment I'm

honored I see they've let that young

fellow go yes did he know

him yes I know most people in the

quarter did you know they did

drugs yes they to do with the case

perhaps

why do they do it h so many good things

in the world you should feel sorry for

those people I'm sorry for the people

they were well there's never any of that

going on here and I don't see how alette

became involved she

didn't alette became involved with one

of those men who catch a girl when she's

young seemed to hold her under kind of

spell she wanted to escape but she

couldn't he did what he wished she did

what he wished was up osar Oscar B

from she was 16 when he met her four

years ago a Savage man with women Some

Like It some I'm

hungry come on don't let it go

cold inspector's been telling us all

about this Oscar Mor that was the

name of course he had other interests

besides ourlet now this count you made

him yes once he'd been a chaua down in

nice she hated her husband because he

loved her and was

old fell over the cliff to his death

accident

perhaps but what if this chauffer knew

that it was not an accident that

knowledge would be worth money to him

more than money to this

chauffer power over a woman I think he

hates women he wants to degrade their

bodies and their minds perhaps he

traffics in drugs to that end yes but if

he had this Countess just like that I

don't know why he wanted to kill her

Countess was out of his control Beyond

caring a danger to him thought he might

as well hear the rest of her jewelry

before she spent it and he said so ah do

I

let she

pretended but she'd overheard him

telling someone else she said she heard

it here was that a lie

too

M we're at the bottom of run Oran I can

see the bead

sign he can't make up his

mind turn away his cigarette he's moving

up the hill now towards

Pat but if this I I don't understand why

should this Oscar feel that way about

women I don't know perhaps his mother

could tell us his mother yeah he had one

Ser we all do you think this fellow

you've been questioning will lead you to

him I'm sure he will customer no much

too early where is he gone right past up

toward Boulevard Russ SWAT gone past and

LA right behind him where's he going

home he lives at

26 he looks for Oscar he doesn't find

him he goes home perhaps Oscar will come

to him as he did to the

couns will you wait for him as he did
