All language subtitles for Cagney and Lacey s04e10 Lady Luck

I don't know any goons. I don't know
anybody who knows any goons. Well, I

that you know somebody who knows
somebody who knows these goons.

Seeing as how I would not like to be
deprived of the use of my life, I now

plead ignorance to all such matters. You
watch,

Cagney, you play.

Cagney, uh, wouldn't hurt if you won.

Can you explain to me about the zero and
the double zero?

Oh, no kidding!

I win again, huh?

Oh this must be my lucky night.

She's new in town, right? From East
Podunk.

An artist, yeah?

Yeah.

So, she's coming home to a rundown
tenement in Tribeca, naturally.

Naturally? What do you mean by
naturally?

And it's not a tenement.

It's a loft.

Yeah, it's a loft.

Victor, I said naturally because Tribeca
is the location for the Strangler case

we're working on.

Oh, yeah, right, right.

Okay, go on. Thank you.

So, anyway, he follows her home.

forces his way inside, and tries to
strangle her. He doesn't, Steve.

She's too tough.

Victor, why don't you tell the story?

No.

Okay. Will somebody please tell the
story here? The suspense is killing me.

right, all right. He tries to strangle
her, but she fights him off. She throws

turpentine in his face.

Ah, the old turp on the perp routine. I
know it well.

Isn't funny, Coleman.

At any rate, we've now got a witness on
the strangler.

You see, Jennifer's the one who fought
the guy off.

Jennifer? What happened to Bomb -Bomb?

I gotta go.

What about the paperwork?

I'll do it tomorrow.

Hey, what's with the toolbox?

He's installing a deadbolt lock in
Jennifer's loft.

Oh, Victor?

What do you think, the third guy we saw?

The fat one with three days' growth?

Yeah, maybe he set it on fire.

Yeah, we get a morning cord, eight
minutes to keep him out of the bars.

Mary Beth, listen, can you kind of step
on it here?

Oh, what's happening?

I've got ballet tickets. Kids Row
Center.

Well, I've done it. Why don't we do
lights and sirens?

You're not serious, are you?

Well, then step on the horn here and cut
off a couple of cats.

I've got a chamber that makes you the
world's slowest driver.

Well, get there. Don't worry.

Well, it's 4 .30. I've got to put this
thing together by 7 o 'clock.

So, are you okay?

Five minutes is good.

Oh, goodness, you don't know.

So much for Swan Lake.

Do you know what could have set her off?

She asked me to copy some papers for
her, so I did it. When I got back, there

she was.

She been having personal problems,
illness, death in the family? No,

like that. What about financial
difficulties? You kidding? She's a vice

president. What else?

Look, we've got to talk to her, so the
more we know, the better. How old is

Does she have a husband?

42. Her husband's a stockbroker.
Handsome, nice. Police.

Name's Arthur.

They seem real happy.

Kids. Two. I just don't understand it.
Why would a woman who has everything

to jump off a building?

I want to back up everybody, please.
Just back away.

Give us some room.

I'm going to take a shot at it.

I'll call emergency service.

No lights, no sirens.

I know.

Mary?

Mary?

Mary Cole, I'm Mary Lacey.

I'm a police detective.

Could I sit here?

I always hated that two Marys.

When I was in fifth grade, my teacher,
Miss Andrews, she used to call Mary

Calzoni Mary number one.

Guess who was Mary number two?

Anyway, so, um... I'm a cop now, and
there's not a lot of us call Mary in the

police department, I'll tell you that.

Do you ever get that problem?

You know, when you're feeling kind of
lost in the sauce, maybe?

Back and forth.

Back and forth.

So I say, can I sit down?

And I look down, 20 stories off.

Me and my mouth, the only thing between
her and the street.

So I thought to tell her about Miss
Andrews. She called Mary Calzone, Mary

number one, and I was Mary number two.
Hey, Mary Beth, what happened?

What happened?

I don't know.

One minute she's standing there, and the
next minute, I put out my hand, and she

grabs on, and...

Then... We're in the room.

And... Oh, she's crying, Harv, and I'm
telling her everything's going to be

okay. And it's better already, right?

Oh, I tell you, Harv.

And then I look back out the window. We
were so high, Harv. We were so close.

I don't even want to talk about it.

Oh.

Sink needs a new washer.

That's all you got to say?

Christine called me.

She told me the whole story.

Very funny, Hogg.

She sent over champagne.

It's in the fridge.

You are terrific.

You are fantastic.

And what you did was great. Oh, yes,
yes.

Let's drink some champagne.

What are you calling?

Information for the hospital. She's
there for observation.

Oh, you're a social worker now, huh?

Honey. Hey, what you did was really
wonderful. I mean it.

But you're not on city time anymore.
You're on my time.

We're going out to dinner. We're going
to celebrate just like you say.

You never had that old Chinese problem.

You save somebody's life.

You're responsible for them forever.

I got a hot flash for you. You're not
Chinese.

And we're going to Luigi's. For pizza? I
said fancy.

We'll get anchovies.

I'm sorry I'm late. Christine, the
champagne was perfect. We had the best

I have the worst heartburn.

So what's the daily activity report hold
for us?

Not much.

How many drugs they round up last night?

Nothing. Let me see.

Let me see it.

Escaping from Bellevue, female Caucasian
age 42 committed for attempted suicide.

Mary Cole.

Sorry.

Mary Beth, you can't take this
personally. Maybe the woman has problems

can solve.

I hate it.

She doesn't compute, Christine.

Who tries to commit suicide when they
just had their hair done?

I don't rich people. Anyway, we've got
to be in court in 20 minutes.

We'll make it. Only if I drive.

I think we should follow up on her.

Mary Beth, there's no...

What could we do? There's no crime
involved here. Just leave her alone.

Oh, human robot cops.

Case is closed. Turn off the juice.

What do you want?

I want to know what's wrong with her.
Well, could we do it after court?

It's now 18 minutes.

I'll bet you $2 they continue it again.

You're on.

Thank you very much.

I hate it when you're right.

Why didn't you turn up eight?

Well, it's a nice day. I thought maybe
we'd take a little drive.

Where? Some place special. We have to be
in the neighborhood by Mary Cole's

apartment. We have to have memorized off
this morning's activity report. I

happen to have a very good memory.

Well, could you at least drive a little
faster?

I am terribly sorry, but I'm afraid I'm
unable to be of any help. The lady of

the house left before I came to work
here.

Left, miss?

Yes.

She and her husband are, how do you say,
separated.

Where did she go?

I do not know. Monsieur Cole does not
confide in me.

Well, may we speak with Mr. Cole?

He is out for the day. Perhaps you would
leave your card.

Mrs. Cole, she calls or something,
right? I mean, she must be the kid.

No, as far as I know, she does not speak
with the children.

What about mail?

Where do you send the mail?

It is not memorized, madame.

Could you try to be a little helpful
here?

S 'il vous plaît, mademoiselle.

Ah, vous parlez français.

Un petit peu.

Bon. J 'ai reçu une lettre aujourd 'hui.

Big shot.

C 'est pour madame Valéla, pour faire
suivre cette ratasse.

Ah, merci mille fois.

Oh, no, that can't be right.

Ah.

This is a very confusing woman.

Mrs. Cole?

Christine? Look here.

She must have a habit.

Maybe blackmail. No, don't make more
sense, because the husband can't handle

he throws her out.

Okay, so who trashed her place?

Say she's selling as well.

And all the profits go in her arm or up
her nose, her supplier gets mad.

So she disappears to hide out from them?

Or to kill herself.

Well, see, if it's blackmail, she could
be hiding out to protect the children.

So she tried to commit suicide because
you couldn't face the truth anymore, but

what would a blackmailer have on her?
She is an accountant.

Accountants embezzle.

Not bad.

I liked it.

You know, you're making me dizzy, you
know, both of you.

Why are you complicating things? Look,
if the woman moves from a mansion down

a rat hole in the Lower East Side, and
then the place gets thoroughly

right? Yes, sir. So who had the address
of this dump?

Nobody at her place of work knew.

Yeah, but her husband knows, right?

You're looking at a possible domestic
violence. My money, you go talk to the

husband.

Yes, sir.

It's all set up.

They're bringing them into the lineup
room now.

I'm ready.

You sure?

This is big time for a girl from
Charlottesville, Virginia.

Okay, let's get it over with.

I'll be all right.

It looks like love to me. It comes to
us, Becky. You bet on the hormones.

She's an addict, all right.

My wife is a compulsive gambler.

We owe the bank $40 ,000.

And she's in debt to bookies and loan
sharks for God knows how much.

The last time I heard, it was $47 ,000.

I wish I knew how to handle it.

I've been to gambling therapy groups,
but Mary wouldn't go.

She would never admit she had a problem.

Not even when the bank threatened to
foreclose on our house.

I took away her credit cards.

I transferred assets into my name.

I tried everything.

I'm sorry, sir.

You said that you asked your wife to
leave.

It was more that I wouldn't take her
back unless she agreed to therapy.

One of the counselors told me the only
chance she had to get better was to

that she had a problem.

And for that to happen, she would
probably have to hit bottom.

I thought, hoped, that kicking her out
would scare her into quitting.

She stole the kids' college fund and
blew it at the crap table.

The last few months, we haven't even
talked.

Loan sharking. The world's second oldest
profession.

Simple business transaction.

You need money, they loan money.

For a price?

Bargain, only 6 % per day.

Borrow a grand in eight days, a whole
grand and a half, and then you borrow

money to pay interest on the money, and
so on. No, no, so how do they ever get

out of the hole, then?

Fear.

Surprisingly strong motivator.

See, loan sharks are backed by a group
of investors.

How shall I put this?

Not exactly known for their patience
and, uh, forbearance.

If you're late, they make you a friendly
visit once, pops twice.

After that, they show you the bottom of
the river permanently.

So, can you give us a list of some known
sharks?

I can give you a list of 350 known
sharks. Another 500 part -timers. You

run them down?

Yeah, but I mean, I'd like to narrow it
to the kind that'd handle $47 ,000 in

action. They put those off on somebody
bigger who puts those off on somebody

else and so on. It's like subcontracting
a job.

Oh, please, Al, we need some expertise
here.

Expertise?

Excuse me?

The Ma and Pa grocery store down the
street. There could be a loan shark.

The dry cleaner's on the corner. A loan
shark.

Kindly, Grandpa, the candy store.

Not a loan shark.

Might as well pick the telephone
directory.

Any page.

Thanks for the advice, Martinez.

Advice?

I'll give you advice.

Mary Cole has been warned.

Find her.

Fast.

Because if you don't, she won't be worth
finding.

You got to use some imagination here.
You mean about the lack of dramatic

atmosphere or the play money?

It's not play money. It's all the money
you've got. You lose it and you're

broken. You can't play no more. You got
to go home.

It doesn't matter whether it's dollars,
pennies, matchsticks. It's what you got.

And when it's gone, that's it.

You got 20 grand.

How much are you going to bet?

Ten dollars.

Spender.

Todd. When you go to the track, how much
are you willing to lose, you know,

before you... I thought I was supposed
to be helping you, sort of an expert

witness.

Yeah, but I... No buts, Mary Beth. I
mean, do you ever see me writing a check

for cash?

Is there ever a question about paying
the rent or how we're going to eat? You

don't have to get defensive here, Harv.
I was only... You were only getting

ready to set me up alongside your junkie
gambler, Kate. There's a difference.

That's what I'm interested in, Harv.

The difference.

I mean, what is the big attraction?

Hit me.

You know you're messing with the entire
economy of the United States here, don't

you? Oh, Harv, you know how I hate your
conspiracy theories. This is not a

theory. Do you think anybody in their
right mind would watch a game between

Buffalo and anybody if he didn't have
some action on it? Do you think that

would be a school system in the state of
New York if it weren't for the lottery?

I mean, you don't think that millions of
dollars change hands every day on some

kind of action and then get laundered to
so many places that they never get

taxed? Huh?

Who are you kidding here?

You want one?

No, I just want to understand Mary Cole.

And find out where I get the money for
the track. Bob, you are not under

investigation here. I was only asking,
you know, so that I could get some

insight.

You bust.

Okay, how's this for insight?

Anybody who was into the goods for, what
did you say, 40, 50 grand?

Yeah.

That person is victory.

I called the phone company. They'll get
back to us in ten minutes.

Are you all right? Yeah. I couldn't stay
in that room.

Do you believe those guys?

And they say women gossip.

Oh, yeah.

So, what do you think of the new hot
couple?

Jennifer and his Becky.

Huh? I think it's a real improve on Bon
Bon. I mean, what kind of a grown man

would go out with a woman named Bon Bon?

Christine. Coleman's making a book on
it. The smart money's bidding on two

months or less. I don't think it's any
of our business.

Oh, Mary Beth, don't do that to me. You
love gossip.

I know you. You go to your beauty parlor
and you sit under the hair dryer.

I know what you read. What do you read?
Movie magazines.

The penal code.

The penal code?

Some of us actually have to study for
the sergeant's exam, Christine.

All right.

Then you go to the store and you've got
your grocery cart and you're standing in

an incredibly long line. What do you do?

I stand there.

Maybe I balance my checkbook.

Sometimes I even talk to people.

You're just not admitting to it. There
is not one person in the entire world

doesn't read trashy newspapers and fan
magazines in a grocery store.

I don't.

Johnny Carson's divorce.

That cute young doctor that Mary Taylor
Moore married?

Hmm?

Liz Taylor.

She broke up with that guy. Did you see
how skinny she got?

You've got work, Christine.

Personally, I like Liz better as a
brunette.

Hiya, Cookie.

Officer Christine.

Ah, Detective Christine.

Oh, well, my congratulations are in
order. Forgive me if I did not send

My first vice best when I was a rookie.

Cookie the bookie, meet Detective Mary
Beth Lacey.

How do you go?

Pleasure's more than all mine.

Want to answer your phone, Cookie?

Wrong number.

We heard you moved to Las Vegas, Cookie.

Las Vegas.

Yes, indeed. But the climate was not
convivial to my constitution.

We're looking for Mary Cole, Cookie.

Who? Mary Cole.

We found your name in her apartment.

So this is a crime?

Better there than on a bathroom wall.

We found her apartment ransacked.
Please, you do mean injustice.

I am not the ransacking type. And she
knows this to be true. I know this to be

true. You book Mary Cole's bets.

She has gambling debts up to $50 ,000.

Do I look like the 50 grand type? You
flatter me.

Who is the 50 grand type, Mr. Cookie?

Well, seeing as how I would not like to
be deprived of the use of my life, I now

must plead ignorance to all such
matters.

Detective Lacey, 14th Squad. What may I
do for you?

Such rude people. They hung up on me.

They're under arrest, Cookie.

For what infraction am I being served
this gross injustice?

Poor Favore.

Why don't we start with bookmaking?

What is this? All this is are people's
names and dollar figures next to them.

What, your Christmas shopping list?

Charitable donations.

Uh -huh.

What charity is this?

The Bears, plus eight.

Detective Lacey, why is your partner
persecuting me?

She never learned how to ask nice.

Please, Mr. Cookie, sir.

Help us find Mary Cole.

Come here.

There's a dive on Stiff near Avenue A.

That's where they let you play on the
cuff.

Thank you.

How do you do?

It's my mother.

Give her my love.

Yeah, yeah. Hello, yeah.

It's called the Fifth Street Social and
Athletic Club.

Mary Cole's bookmaker says it's a dive.

A little small -time action, but it's
the only place they'll still let her

Small -time action? They trash her
apartment or threaten her life? No, sir.

figured they were muscle for the loan
shark.

So where is he?

Well, nobody knows, Lieutenant.

Martinez over at Public Moral says the
shark could be almost anybody.

So you're looking for Mary Cole.

Then what?

We save her life, sir.

You want to offer her 24 -hour police
protection?

For how long?

We do respect her. We put her under
protective custody. She can name names.

She tells us who her money man is, who
threatened her life. I mean, maybe we

make some arrests here. Maybe we find
out who the people at the top are, and

then we really have something.

Lacey, personally, I think that you are
dreaming.

Please, what are you saying, sir?

We have to give up. No, that's not what
I'm saying. What I'm saying is that the

little fish would be nice and... the
rough guys would be very nice and that

Big would make my day.

But I will even settle for merry calls,
safe and sound, which is why I waste my

valuable time here going begging for
money for you two and signing all these

forms here in the quadruplicate.

There you go, $100, courtesy NYPD.

Go have a good time. Thank you, sir.
You're all heart, Lieutenant. We

get in the door with $100.

I thought you said it was small -time
action.

All right, $200, okay?

And don't spend it all in one place.
Nelson,

you watch.

Cagney, you play.

Cagney, it wouldn't hurt if you won.

Can I keep a percentage?

A little vigorous off the top?

Get out of here, will you? The boat
is...

Here you go.

Here we go.

All down.

Here we go.

100.

always bet my husband's birthday first
for luck oh

what

do you know and now um 22 that's our
anniversary

Marry who?

Nicole.

Don't know her. You want a hit?

Hey,

update with Jennifer tonight?

You two are a real item, aren't you?

Hey, come on, man. Leave me alone. I'm
trying to comb my hair.

Where are you taking her, Victor?

Around. Around?

Rangers game?

Probably. Nah.

Well, look, there's this new place in
Little Italy.

Romantic.

candlelight. Come on. Petrie is Becky's
idea. Fine dining is all you can eat. $4

.95. Hey, you guys knock it off, huh?

What do we got over here?

An art show.

Look at this.

Kinetic sculpture.

The historic application of the
paperclip and conceptual art. It's a

breakthrough in postmodernist
expression.

Not she.

What do you want?

Oh, no kidding.

I win again, huh?

Oh, this must be my lucky night. Boy, I
wish Mary was here. She would love this.

That wheel is hot.

Excuse me.

Want to buy me a drink, Doris?

Thank you.

Two scotches.

Tom Collins, please.

He's fine.

Listen, give me another 50 bucks, okay?

Oh, sure.

Thank you. What'd you get on your
friend?

Nothing.

Gamblers are nothing.

Friendliest people.

How about you?

I got a loan shark who works in the
place.

Get this. A dry cleaning store.

You are amazing.

We'll hit him in the morning, huh?

Yeah, purple.

You know, you're probably the only
person here who's winning.

You should try number 11.

That's Michael's birthday. I want $36 on
that one.

I'm playing blackjack.

Oh, 21, huh? Yeah.

I keep getting 22.

Let's get another half hour. She didn't
show up all night, all right? Okay.

Chris,

can you explain to me about the zero and
the double zero?

her statement and yours.

Later. Better if we get it now.

I can't just see she's real upset.

All right.

We'll be at the precinct.

I'll get you through this as quick as
possible.

Hey.

Hey.

Come on, it's all over.

He's not going to bother you anymore.

Don't.

I just wanted to hold you.

You Pimmons?

Yes. What can I do for you ladies?

Texas Cagney and Lacey, 14th Squad.

Oh. Well, nice to meet you ladies.

At Simmons, there's always a discount
for New York's finest.

Oh, yeah?

You also give discounts to customers
from the Fifth Street Social and

Club with the Pimmons.

Never heard of that place.

Hey, you should leave this here.

I can get this spot out for you. You
want to cut the song and dance, Simmons?

You're a loan shark.

We have reason to believe that you have
a client by the name of Mary Cole who's

into you for about $50 ,000.

That was not our intention or our desire
at this moment to shut your business

down. All we want to know is where we
can find her.

I really wish I could help you ladies.

But in the first place, I'm not a loan
shark.

In the second place, I never heard of
this woman.

And in the third place, if I had $50
,000.

Would I be sweating my life away in a
dump like this? Hey, we're not stupid,

pal. What if she was into you for 5
,000?

Maybe then you'd discount the marker and
sell it to someone who's willing to

take the bigger risks.

You guys have been watching too many
cops and robber movies.

Don't get flip with me, mister.

Hey, lady, come on, look around here,
will you?

I'm a dry cleaner.

Simmons, you look over here. See, my
partner's getting very impatient.

So I'm going to lay it on the line for
you, okay? Someone sent goons after Mary

Cole, and we want to know who that
someone is.

In the first place, like I told you, I
am not a loan shark.

And in the second place, like I told
you, I don't know anything about your

friend. And in the third place, I don't
know any goons. I don't know anybody who

knows any goons. I'm a dry cleaner. Get
it?

Well, I hope that you know somebody who
knows somebody.

Who knows these ghouls?

Because we're coming back.

And if anything happens to Mary Cole,
you will be opening a new branch on

Island. You get it?

Are you sure he's a shark?

I got his name from a guy who was losing
his shirt at the blackjack table. Oh,

by the way, how'd you make out?

Well, actually, sir, we covered our
expenses.

Covered your expenses?

You made a profit. Way to go, Cagney.

Well, actually... You should have seen
her, sir.

Nothing but 21s.

Oh, nothing, Lieutenant.

Nothing? What are you talking?

You saved the taxpayer $200. That's not
chopped liver.

Well, thank you, Lieutenant.

Look, about this shark, we can pull him
in, lean on him a bit.

Yeah? Excuse me, Lieutenant. Do you want
to hear about any DOAs? Uh -huh.

We got a Jane Doe behind a building on
Chambers Street near West Broadway.

Okay. Description?

Body is not in perfect condition.

May not be her.

You want it?

We'll take it, sir.

You know who you look...

We can make a visual ID.

Body was found in this garbage dumpster.

Looks like she's been there a couple of
days.

How bad is it?

Nothing you want to look at before
breakfast.

I've got to say, this one's not too bad.

Really, it's not too bad.

As long as you know what you're looking
for.

Her name is Mary Cole.

C -O -L -E.

You okay?

Yeah.

Hey.

Hey, come on, Victor. It's not the end
of the world.

He's just, uh... Excuse me.

What's the matter with this Becky?
Someone steal his Barry Manilow records?

What's the matter? Did I say something
wrong? Jennifer packed up and went back

to Virginia this morning.

I don't even know what I said to her,
Christine.

I mean, on that ledge, you know, I...
But when she came in the room, I thought

she wanted to be alive again.

She didn't kill herself.

She was murdered.

Say if somebody's like you, responsible
for whoever.

Nobody forced her to gamble, Mary Beth.

Nobody forced that woman to live in a
rat hole and borrow money from loan

sharks.

If she chose the kind of life she got in
you, there's not a damn thing you could

have done about it.

No, I should have done something more. I
should have gone to see her in the

hospital.

Or I could have followed up faster on
something.

I don't know what I said to her.

I remember what you said to her.

You told her she wasn't a superwoman.
You told her she was human.

And I'm saying that to you.

And you told her to think about her
husband and her kids.

Yeah, right.

I want to do something.

I want to go to her funeral.

I don't do funerals. No.

You don't have to go.

Fine. Thank you.

Hey, Chris.

What? Give me the keys.

What for? Give me the keys. I'm driving.

Mary Beth, is your head together here?
Just get in the car.

What's the matter with you?

He's dead, Bozo.

I told you, I don't know the lady. I
never heard of her. I got nothing to do

with that lady.

Yes? No.

Mr. Simmons, I have never seen my
partner quite this upset.

It's murder now, with special
circumstances.

All right, that's a capital offense in
New York. Yeah, and somebody's going to

pay for it. And you're the only name I
got. Yeah, but I didn't do anything. I

didn't. Well, then tell us who did.

Well, how should I know? In the first
place, I'm not a shark. In the second

place... Shut your mouth!

In the first place, I don't care. In the
second place, I don't care.

In the third place, I don't care.

Look, you're going to put me out of
business here. You're already out of

business, courtesy of the NYPD.

All right.

I really don't know anything, I swear.

Huh? It's all done with contacts. Cut
off men. I don't know anybody big.

So give us a contact.

I do that. I'm a dead man. Come on. You
saw what happened to Mary Cole. You knew

it, didn't you?

I want to talk to my lawyer. No need for
that.

We'll just spread the word that he named
names.

Yeah. Yeah, but I...

Oh, my God, you know what they're going
to do to me?

We have an alternative.

We have a witness protection.

No, he don't qualify.

He doesn't want to be a witness.

Oh, too bad.

I, uh... The only name I know is the
name I deal with.

That's all.

Fine. We'll take it, one name at a time.

Go ahead.

Yeah, go ahead.

30, 45 minutes top.

Yeah.

Sorry.

Okay,

what? 53rd and 9th?

Yeah. All right, I'll see you then.

Bye.

We can finish at 85 in the morning.

You go ahead. I'm almost done.

Mm -hmm.

We're going to find him, Mary.

We give Martinez the name and they start
putting some heat on people.

Yeah.

Well, I'll see you in the morning, then.

Bye, Chris.

Good night, Victor.

What's on your mind, Victor?

I just want to tell you why.

I heard you got a lead on the Miracle
Homicide.

Thanks for going.

Thank you.

Is there something on your mind, Victor?

Nah.

I heard about your friend. I'm sorry.

How'd you hear about him?

Small precinct.

Well, she'll come back for the trial.

Who knows?

Maybe... Yeah.

I never met anybody

like her before.

She was telling...

But I guess it was too much for her.

I tried to tell her there were good
things in the city, too.

I tried to protect her.

I even installed a deadbolt lock on her
door.

I never even touched it, Lacey.

I think you're wrong.
