Let it go,
she's not worth it.

- Well, at least
they're together now.

- Is that all you can say?

My god Aunt Hester,

didn't you feel anything
for her, my mother?

You didn't see fit to come
when she needed your help.

- Look, this is hardly
the time, or place.

Miss Ramsey, you're
upsetting Audrey.

- You're not in the
family yet, young man,

so don't presume--
- Aunt Hester, please,

come with me, I'll
walk you to your car.

- Why did she have to come?

Ever since Dad died she's been
so distant, and so hateful.

- She, doesn't seem to
spread joy, and sunshine.

Don't worry, let her go.

She's got her money,
you've got me.

- I'll never forget this.

She couldn't even give
my mother peace in death.

Sit!

Sit.

Come and get the ball!

Good girl!

Let's put away our leash,

and our ball.

Everything is going
to be beautiful.

We understand the
power, you and I.

We know now, don't
we Greta girl?

Oh Sam!

I never knew it
would end like this.

You dying first, before her.

Oh, Sam dearest.

Oh we could have had
so much, you and I.

We could have had so much.

Thank you Sam.

I love you too.

Oh Sam, Sam,

dear dear Sam.

Only things could
have been different.

Oh Sam, Sam.

We could have had so much.

All right, all right!

Oh, Stephen it's you!

- Hello Aunt Hester!
- Oh!

You came to see me!

Would you believe that I was
expecting you to pay a visit?

- I don't mean to disturb you.
- Oh no, come on in,

oh it's been far too long.

Do you know what I
was doing just now?

- No.
- I was looking at

a photograph of your
father, taken years ago.

My he was a handsome man,
a gentleman, and a dreamer.

Are you a dreamer too, Stephen?

- Heh, not like him.

I have my plans, see I...

- Ah, did you know
that he was an artist?

Well, at any rate
he, could have been.

But, that was long ago.

Come on.

I know precisely why
you're here, Stephen.

- You do?
- Uh-hmm, and I agree.

I want to put the last
few years behind us.

I want us to be close again,

as a family.

You, and Audrey, and I.

Well, what do you
think of Greta?

She's really
a very fine looking dog.

Oh, she's a, quite a

special breed, a Rottweiler.

I brought her back from
Europe last year.

Aw, she just loves it
here, don't you Greta baby?

You know you couldn't imagine
how valuable she really is.

But then, we Ramsey's uh,

we've always been drawn toward
valuable things.

- Aunt Hester I want you
to know I'm not worried

about your money or
anything like that.

- Oh of course you are!

Why it wouldn't be
natural if you weren't.

And you're obviously a very
natural boy, like your father.

I'm not like him.

Uh not all together anyway.

- Oh, he could have been
something, that Sam!

But he was held down.

Held down until there
was nothing left in him.

He needed guidance, she
couldn't give it to him.

- We don't have
to talk about him,

I mean that's, that's done with.

He was a good father he,

just maybe wasn't
a business man.

But I'm different, see I
have solid plans Aunt Hester,

I know what I want, I'm gonna
make something of myself.

- I'm sure you do,
and I want to help.

Now, that's what
you'd like, isn't it?

See, don't worry,
she likes you.

She's just getting used
to your scent.

- Come on, come on, come on.

That a girl.

Come on.

Well, was she good today?

- She's a very intelligent
dog, Miss Ramsey,

one in 1000, a real
pleasure to work with.

- Aw yes, she is just

a treasure, like all
ancient creatures

with wonderful pedigrees.

Well, thank you.
- Eh, when should I

pick her up again?

- Oh, I'm not sure,
uh, but I'll phone you.

Time has come for us Greta.

We're going to use the power.

Come on Greta, it's time.

Potence, Potence, Potence.

- I'll talk to you later.

Me too.

Well dear.

A-Aren't you going
to invite me in?

- Oh I'm sorry, yes, come in!

- Did Stephen, uh,
deliver my letter?

- Yes he did, and we talked.

I'm glad to see
you, really I am.

Do you like my new place?

- Well it has a certain charm.

But I must admit it's a
little small for my taste.

Unfortunately I can't

afford your taste!

How are you doing?

All right.

No, very well actually.

I have some coffee
would you like some?

- Oh yes thank you,
that would be very nice.

Uh Audrey, I want you
to know one thing.

Clarisse's death has
been a great blow to me.

First, breakdown
and the confinement

and then the suicide,

it was almost more
than I could bear.

- It was a blow to all
of us, Aunt Hester.

- I know that.

Life hardly ever turns
out, the way we want it to,

no matter how carefully we,

plan and hope.

Oh, how lovely!

I didn't really
mean to be a horror

through all of this
it's just that,

things haven't been right,
for a long long time.

Oh you were always
such a sweet child.

When I think of all
the pain and suffering

that we went through alone.

When we could have been
a comfort to each other.

- Yeah we're together now, I
guess that's all that matters.

Maybe from now on it'll
be easier on both of us.

It's just that I wish
we could have had this

when mother was still alive.

She never understood your
attitude after Dad died.

You seemed to hate all of us.

- Did uh, did your mother

ever mention anything about,

your father, and me?

- No, she just couldn't
put her finger on why

everything changed after
the airplane crash.

- Oh Audrey, a lot of it
was in her head I think.

She always had the
crazy notion, that I wanted Sam.

Uh, perhaps it was because
he and I went together uh,

before your mother.

Oh, you knew that, didn't you?

- No, I didn't.

You and Dad, that's funny.

- Funny?

I don't know what's
funny about it.

He was my age not her's.

But that's ancient history.

And they're gone.

You and Stephen, that's
what's important now.

Oh, I almost forgot!

I have a present for you.

Hello girl!

Come get the ball, come on!

Here, here...

Oh what a sweet dog!

I didn't know you cared
for dogs, what's her name?

I've named her Greta,

and I brought her for you.

- For me, oh Aunt
Hester it's been so long

since I've taken care of a dog!

- I found her in Europe.

She's a purebred.

She's been trained, and
she's a wonderful companion.

- Well surely you don't
want to give her up?

- Well I, I realized
just the other day

that I want you to have her.

- Oh what can I say, thank you!

We'll take good care of each
other, wont' we Greta?

- I hope so dear.

I hope so.

- Got some tickets
for the game tonight.

Want to come?
- Can't I gotta go

see Audrey.
Jeez you see

a lot of your sister lately.

- Well, it's been hard on
her since my mother died.

- How much further?
- About 1/2 a mile,

we're
late.

We gotta go.

About average, nothing
special, 15, 22.

- Hell I'm not trying to
run the Boston Marathon.

Just wanna work off
some of this lard.

- Hey I'm sorry about the game.

Why don't you invite Sarah?

- Heh, she's no fun.

I spend 1/2 the damn game trying

to explain what's happening.

- Yeah but she'll be
more fun after the game

than I would be.

That's for sure.

And I was going over to
her place later anyway.

- Hey how come I never
get to meet your sister.

She ugly or something?

No, she's not your type,
she wouldn't put out for you.

Come on let's hit the
showers I'm running late.

How come I can never find a
girl who can cook like you can?

- Maybe because the
girls you go with

spend more time in the
bedroom than the kitchen.

- Yeah but you'd think
at least one of 'em

would be interested
in cooking too.

I mean there is a
limit, is how much time

anyone can spend having sex.

- Have you found the limit
yet or are you still looking?

- Lighten up a
little will you sis?

Okay let's

drop that subject.

- Okay, I agree, and I
hate to leave you with

all this stuff but
ah, I'm running late,

so uh, Daphne has
an overnight tonight

and her plane comes in
in about 40 minutes,

and so, I gotta go.

Stephen.

- Well, we made it
through one whole evening

without once
mentioning mom.

Maybe the pain inside you is
starting to ease a little bit.

- I guess so Steve,
maybe a little.

Your visits help a lot.

- Well...
- Thanks.

- Sure.

Now hurry up, I don't

want you to get another
speeding ticket.

- Yes ma'am.
- Where's your car?

- Oh it's the battery again,
I had to park it down the hill

so I can get it started.

- You want to take my car?
- No that's okay, but uh,

thank you for a
really nice dinner.

Goodnight.

- Greta?

Oh Greta you're not

supposed to be out
without a leash.

Come on go, get on home!

Go on!

Go on.

Damn!

I don't know how

I'll be able to accept this,

losing Stephen like that.

- It'll just take time.

Here...

Pour me a glass
of wine will you please Jeff?

There's a bottle
opener in the kitchen.

- Are you sure?

- I need you, Jeff.

35-10 seven.

Correction, this is 51

requesting on the
BR on Wilshire,

33 Wilshire.

25 one,

stand by for further--

- 31...
- What kind of problem

are you having here?

- It's called a code
10-27, disabled vehicle.

I'm Detective Otis Burris.

Radio's out too.

- Oh a, detective, hi.

- Hi.
- Should I call a wrecker?

- Oh, I don't know, the
damn thing's overheated,

it's been acting up all day.

Here's the keys, see
what you can do with it.

- Hey, Sergeant
what are you doing?

- Well now, this
might be difficult

for you to understand son,

but I'm in the middle
of an investigation.

Look, you gotta clear

this with the station!

- Don't you worry about a thing,

Captain Paine and I
are lifelong friends,

just don't let anybody
steal that vehicle,

it's city property.

Now you just hang tight,
I'll send a car for you.

- Aw shit!

- Morning ma'am.

Uh, itis Miss
Mathews, isn't it?

Uh well ma'am uh,
I'm Detective Burris,

and uh, I was wondering if,

if we could talk for
just a little bit?

- Could you first tell
me what it's about?

- Well I just have a
few questions about
your brother ma'am,

if you don't mind I, I'm
sorry but, it is necessary.

We do a routine investigation
on any accidental death,

particularly one
like your brother's

where there weren't
any witnesses.

- I don't know what to
say, the police told me

it was an accident.
- Yeah I-l read the report

you gave to our
detective the next day,

about uh, how your
brother parked on a hill,

on account of the dead battery.

- All I've been thinking
about the past four days

is how I should have
gone out and helped him.

I should have insisted.

But I don't understand how
the car got down the hill.

- Well, you know ma'am, that's
one of the strange things.

Uh, actually I was on night
duty when it happened,

and I was there when they
removed your brother.

Uh, he was working under
the hood, apparently,

when the car jumped out of gear.

- Well?

Is there something else?

You're looking at me like you
expect me to say something.

- I'm sorry ma'am it's
just that I was wondering

if you knew where the battery
is on your brother's car?

- Under the hood I guess,
isn't that where they are?

- No ma'am, in
your brother's car,

the battery's behind the seat.

You see, they have these
two six-volt batteries wired

together to make a 12-volt--
- I don't know about

electricity and cars.

- Well, anyway,
there's one more thing.

The driver thinks there
was someone else there,

that your brother
might have been pushed.

- No he was alone
when he left here.

- Well it's the way
he fell backwards

into the car,
the headlights--

- Please.
- I'm sorry ma'am,

it's just that I,

I have to check on everything.

Say, that sure is
a fine dog you got there.

Hello there old girl.

How old is she?
- About five I think.

You like dogs?

- Oh I got this old dog at
home, I had him 13 years.

- I had Greta about a week.

Come on Greta,

give me the ball.

Out!

- Hey, come on here,

Ball! Ball!

- Out, out!

Ooh, she sure has
- Out!

- Out!
- sharp teeth!

- She likes you.
- Come on.

- Was there something else?

I'm sorry I've
forgotten your name.

- Uh, Detective
Burris, Otis Burris.

Uh no ma'am, nothing else.

Say you sure are a
good old dog there,

I really appreciate a dog
with spirit, I sure do!

And one that likes people too.

- Hello?

No, I'm glad you called Jeff.

No I didn't take it, you
know how I am about pills.

I slept pretty
well just the same.

Me too.

I missed you too.

No I'd love to go to lunch.

I'll meet you there
just before noon.

And don't worry I'm okay.

I love you too.

- Dammit, Richard,
will you sit down?

Can't you think on your
butt like ordinary folks?

Otis it just
doesn't make any sense.

I mean, why would a girl like
that, kill her own brother?

Eh, you're the college boy,
you tell me.

Didn't they teach you any,

psychology up in
that fancy school?

Yeah sure.

I'll tell you one
thing, in my opinion,

the driver's telling the truth.

Record's spotless,
he stopped right away

and he called the ambulance.

Yeah well I'll go along

with that, but uh,

there might be a
little more to it.

- Oh, how do you figure it then?

- Well look, the girl's
got to feel a lot of guilt

over the death of
her old lady, right?

- Yeah, sure.

She probably suffered
severe psychological stress,

which may or may not have
anything to do with it.

- Right, well now the
way I got it figured,

the girl, probably
feels a lot of

unconscious hostility
toward that brother of hers.

I mean after all he's the
one having a good time,

and she's been shackled with
her momma in the funny farm.

- Uh-uh, naah that's not
enough to kill her own brother.

- Ah, maybe yes.

When you consider that, now,
she's the only one that stands

to inherit the
whole Ramsey estate.

- Otis I think you're
the one's that's crazy.

And maybe I am for
listening to you.

It just doesn't make any sense.

Well anyway...

Wait a minute.

What about that Hester
woman, I mean hell,

she's the one that's
got all the money,

and she's still alive.

- Yeah, she sure is,
Hester is still alive.

And she's got no kinfolk.

Except, that Audrey girl.

- You know something,
maybe we ought to go out,

talk to Hester Ramsey.

Might give us some
background information.

- By god!

That college education
wasn't a total waste, was it?

Why don't you give her a ring?

Hell I've I been dying to
see the inside of that house

ever since I was a kid and used

to steal plumbs out
of her damn orchard!

Come on, call her up!

- Well I guess I
should get back.

Unless you want me to take
the rest of the day off.

- No, go ahead, I'm
doing much better.

It was a big help
getting out of the house.

- I really should've
taken the day off too,

if it wasn't for, what do
they say, pressing business.

- I know Jeff, I don't mind.

As a matter of fact
I think I'm going

back to work myself tomorrow.

Are you sure
you're not pushing it?

- No, it'll be better at work.

Now hurry up,
‘cause you're late!

I'll finish my coffee.

Coming by tonight?

Yeah.

- Yes Miss Ramsey, like
I was telling Richard,

during the depression I
used to ride a trolley

for a nickel all the
way out here to the

end of the line just to steal
fruit out of your orchard!
604
I bet you were
one of the boys who I took

a pot-shot at
with my slingshot!

Well now, what's on your
mind Detective Burris?

Miss Ramsey uh,

would you say that you
and your niece are, close?

- Oh of course we are.

Uh, she's my sister's
only daughter,

and uh, now that Stephen is,
well now that Stephen is dead,

she's the only
family I have left.

- How did Stephen and
his sister get along?

- Oh just fine.

They were as close as any,

brother and sister
I've ever seen.

Why do you ask?

- Uh no particular
reason Miss Ramsey, uh,

we just have to ask a
lot of questions when

we're checking out
a possible homicide.

- Homicide?

What are you talking about,
I thought it was an accident?

I read it in the newspapers.

- Well, yes it may
appear that way ma'am but

you see we have to uh,
check out, everything,

every possibility...
- It must have been

an accident uh,
run over, by a car?

- Uh, that's the way
it appears, yes ma'am.

- Well if it wasn't,

then someone wanted
Stephen dead.

Oh, that's ridiculous!

Uh I don't believe
that boy had a,

an enemy in the world!
- Seems like everyone we

talk to feels
about the same way.

- And then of course,
the next question is,

who would benefit,
if he were dead.

- Gentlemen, I'd appreciate
it, if you would leave!

I'm not going to stand by,

and have you impugn the
integrity of my niece!

I resent the implication
that Audrey is a, murderess!

- Oh but please uh, miss!
- Oh...

- Goodbye gentleman.

- Uh, one more question
Miss Ramsey if you please!

Uh, we can find out
without your help

but it'll just take more time.

- Well what is it
Detective Burris?

- Could you make
a guess as to the

total value of your
estate, please?

- I suggest, that your
superiors contact my attorney.

His name is Henry Claypool.

This way out, please.

Oh all right girl
it's okay, you'll get fed.

- Jeff?

Why don't you take her out
while I get her dinner?

- Come on Lady, out we go.

Aw come on you old mutt!

Now do your thing!

- Jeff, don't talk
to her like that!

Here, give her her dinner.

If we're going out,
I'm going to slip

into the shower, do you mind?

- I don't mind, as
long as I'm invited.

- I think I can stand that.

babe,

What the...

Oh well.

Hey this isn't so bad.

Jeff, what's that?

I better see who it is.

I'm gonna check the breaker box.

The breaker switch jumped
off for some reason.

Hey, who was at the door?

Whoever
it was, they left.

- Okay Richard uh, stand
there by the front,

over there a little
closer to the center,

that's about right, okay,

now I'm gonna kick
the car out of gear.

Okay, you got it.

Can you hold it?
- Yeah,

yeah I can hold it, I'm not
gonna push it far uphill though.

- Well uh, tell you what
now, what I want you to do

is to kind of ease up
on it a little bit like,

you know let it, as if
you were gonna let it

roll forward and pick
up a little momentum,

and then see if you can hold it.

- Otis you gotta be kidding,
what if I can't stop it?

- Well then I'll get a really
good look at what happened!

- Yeah, you stay right
there in case I need you!

- Well of course, I
was gonna do that,

and I-I'll be right
there by your side, okay?

Ah-ah, okay,

all right, that's good.

Heh...

Hmm.

I guess you're right, he should
have been able to stop it.

One thing I
can't figure though,

I can't see how the car would
push him into the street.

Uh well,

I don't know.
- Wait a minute,

he could have slipped, right?

He falls back as the
car rolls forward.

- Uh, could be I guess.

- It's got to be
the way it happened.

The driver, he won't swear he

saw anybody push him?
- Nah he won't swear.

Well, come on
I guess we'd better

get this heap back to the pound.

You know, it's a damn shame

this thing's got that little old

whine there in the rear end.

I always, sorta,

imagined myself in a
little old car like this.

- Come on Greta, come on
girl, let's go outside.

- Audrey?
- Come on in Monique,

- There you are, I hope
this is not an imposition,

it's just that I
have a date tonight.

- I'm really glad you called.

You're welcome to my
hot water any time

there's a plumbing problem.

Oh, you startled me!

Put that curler down,
I'm not gonna play now!

Come on doggie, put it down!

My god, no!

Monique?

Are you still here?

uh!

Car 57-40,
come in 57-40!

This is 57-40,

tell the old man I'm
on my way in now,

just hold your horses.

Something else came in

for you at 3812 Hanover Lane.

You're to proceed--

- Hanover, that's
where I just was!

What the hell is this
a damn merry-go-round.

Hello this is Burris, let
me have Detective Donaldson.

Richard we got a problem

over here at Audrey Matthews uh,

you better get the boys
from the coroner's.

Yeah, that's right,
I don't know yet,

we haven't had a chance to talk,

just get on over here huh?

Well girl what
happened, who is she?

- Electrocuted, she was
electrocuted in the bathtub.

- I know, I saw but,
how did the curling iron

fall into the tub,
there's no shelf

or anything above the tub?

- It's funny, when I saw her
I thought she was helping.

- Saw who, who was in there?

- The dog, just Greta,
she was in the bathroom.

- Well what was she doing?
- That's the funny thing.

She was pulling the curling iron

out of the water by the cord.

- Boy that's some smart dog.

Maybe she, heard
the girl scream when

the curler hit the water?

- Yeah I guess
that's what happened.

God I don't know.

There's something more.
- What?

- How did the dog get in?

She was locked out, I'm sure.

- Well, maybe, maybe
the girl let her in?

- No, she was in the tub.

I remember Monique slumped
down under the water.

Her eyes were still open.

- Oh?

Well she's propped up against
the end of the tub now.

- Well I, pulled her up
from under the water I was,

hoping she was still
breathing but she wasn't.

- But, who is she,

what was she doing here?

- Monique Burger, a friend.

She lives across the street.

They're working on
the plumbing system.

- Anything else I should do?

- No, just stay in there,

and see they don't
make a mess of things.

- I still can't understand.

Nothing explains
how Greta got in.

Through the
door, don't you see?

But I'm sure,
positive it was closed!

- Now Greta is a
very strong dog.

It wouldn't be much
of a problem for her

to just push it open.

- It's so strange,

the things she seems
to be able to do.

- Has she ever
tried to attack you,

ever been vicious?
- Just the opposite.

She's the most gentle
dog I've ever known.

- They'll be through in there in

just a minute.
- Oh good.

Uh, I'll be downtown
in a little while,

you go on with them.

- Okay.

I know this sounds crazy,

but it's something
I feel very often.

When I'm with here alone,

sometimes it feels more like
I'm in the room with a person.

She watches me.

Do you think I'm losing
it, I mean like Mom?

- No, no of course not.

You can handle it.

- Will they arrest me?

- No, no need
worrying about that.

But you'll have to admit it
looks a little bit fishy though.

This is the second
one to die recently,

and you were the last one
to see them, just you.

And the dog.

Richard, I want you to
do something for me.

Get ahold of the
Kennel Association,

see if you can trace
that dog's background.

- Otis, trace a dog?

Well they told me
that working with you

I'd learn something every day.

- Look you can get the
dog's registration number

from the girl, I want to
know everything possible,

you know uh, name
of the breeder,

place of birth, all
that sort of stuff.

- Okay.

- And don't make a big
deal out of it now,

especially with the girl!

Audrey, dear.

It's Hester.

I know dear.

Another senseless tragedy.

No, no, no, there's
nothing you can do about it,

j-just leave it to
the police, yes.

I-I'll tell
you why I called.

I've called the vet.

Yes, I'm going to take
Greta to get her shots.

No I'll be glad to do it.

It'll give you a
chance to rest, dear.

Oh yes and uh, by the way, um,

you know that tag,
that other tag

that Greta's wearing?

Well I know it
sounds silly but um,

I'd like her to keep it.

Oh thank you dear, yes
I'll be right over.

Of course.

Goodbye.

- What'd you find out?

- Cause of death, drowning.

Her lungs contained water.

But it's hard to tell,

cardiac arrest occurred
about the same time.

Caused by electrocution.

- Signs of struggle?

- None.

She was burned somewhat,

but that's consistent
with electrocution.

Was it an accident?

Well, I don't know yet.

Just uh, let me know if
you find anything doc,

anything at all.

- Well there, there
was something else.

Maybe not much.

Eh there were a couple
of hairs in her hand.

Looked like animal hair.
- Get those to the lab!

And Cliff, I want
that report fast!

- I will do my best!
- Thank.

Come on Greta!

- Hello?

Who is this?

Oh Detective Burris.

No it's all right
I needed to get up.

What would you
want with the dog?

All right then but
she's not here.

Hester took her to the vet,

you'll have to pick
her up over there.

No just bring her here after.

And Mr. Burris?

Take good care of her.

Detective Burris,
this dog's a pussy,

let me tell you that.

There's no way that I can
ever make her violent.

When a dog acts like that,

she's never gonna have
a killer instinct.

- Well, thanks a lot,

you just shot my pet
theory right in the ass.

Come on Greta, let's go girl,

come on, there we go.

Hey now...

Okay, that a girl,

I'll buy you a
hamburger, all right?

- Think you let me win today.

- I never let anyone win.

It's too hard on my ego.

- Either way, it felt good to
get out and get some exercise.

While you're in the shower
I'll scramble some eggs

and make some of my
special pancakes.

- Pancakes, for me?
- And for me!

Something to restore that
energy we've burned up.

Only if you've
got lots of honey.

- My watch!

I left it at the court, I hooked
it on the chain link fence!

I'm so stupid!

- No problem, we'll
just walk back.

- No I'll go back, you
stay here with Greta,

it'll be faster.

Okay Greta, let's try

to stay awake while she's gone.

Yes, you're a good dog Greta.

- Jeff!

Get up!

Jeff!

Jeff!

Jeff!

No, no!

No, no, no!

Please!

- So the guy was
choked to death.

You sure doc?
- Yes absolutely.

Not only that it appears
it was done with one hand,

someone with a very
strong right hand.

So you're saying that he was,

choked by a guy
using just one hand?

- Yeah, there was severe
damage to the larynx,

the esophagus, there's no
doubt it was strangulation.

- Ah it doesn't make sense!

I mean uh, broad
daylight, no robbery.

And if there was an assault,
why didn't the dog bark?

- I can't solve the case,

I can only tell you
how the young man died.

- Not a single person
heard a damn thing

and yet there were
people all around.

Hey doc, is it possible that,

that a girl could
have strangled him?

- Off the top of my
head I'd say, no,

the hand print on his throat was

too large for most
women and I doubt if

any woman would have
that much strength.

Why do you ask?
- Oh hell,

I'm grasping at anything doc,
I mean he was with a girl,

it was her dog, you'd think
if it'd been anybody else

the dog would have barked
or have done something.

My god the dog's a monster,
he must weigh 125 Ibs.

Boy, I tell you, I
wouldn't want to try

to strangle anybody with
that critter around.

- No one saw or heard anything?

- No, nothing,
it's total blank.

And the guys was, by himself
for only three minutes or less,

we timed the trip back
to the tennis court.

Doc are you absolutely
sure he was strangled?

- You want to come
see for yourself?

- Oh no no hell...
- There, is another thing.

The victim apparently
fought back.

- How's that?

- The knuckles on his
right hand were bloody.

- Okay doc, this is one
I gotta see for myself.

Let's go.

Well young man?

- Oh, yes, Miss Ramsey.

I was just looking for--
- Snooping around,

uh spying I believe
they call it.

- No ma'am, nothing like that,

I just heard some
sounds, like animals,

and was, call it
natural curiosity.

That's what got me into
this business I guess I'm,

just naturally curious.
- Well I assure you

there is nothing here,

nor any place else
on my property

that could interest
you in the slightest!

I realize it's been

difficult for you with
all that's happened.

- Look here, I don't
like to see anyone die!

But I didn't know
this Jeff boy at all!

- Were he and your
niece engaged?

- Not really, there
wasn't a ring or anything.

- Did he stay at her house?

- He had his own apartment.

- You suppose she
stayed with him?

That would
hardly be the behavior,

I'd expect from my niece.

- You check up on
her very often?

- Lord no, since
her mother's death,

I've looked in on
her once in a while,

just to see if I could help.

- Miss Ramsey this is a
question I have to ask.

Do you know of anyone who
would want Jeff Ingram dead?

I don't know anyone

who even knew who he was.

Now, well except Audrey, does
that answer your question?

- I know it's crazy but,

it's the only thing
that makes any sense!

- No it doesn't!

Look, we know that
she and the guy

were getting real serious right?

Well, maybe she got
jealous about something.

Maybe she had somebody jump him.

- Mmm, no, I don't
think she's involved.

- Why not?

What she has a pretty
face and a sweet smile?

- Hmph, look, I don't
pretend to know the answers,

I'm just trying to
figure out the problem!

I tell you one thing though,

I want to know everything
there is to know,

about that dog.

Four and 25,
unit four three seven,

four 37, 20-29-37...

- Now, tell me how you're doing.

- I don't know.

Rotten.

Confused.

There's a whole nightmare
going on all around me.

I'm starting to see a doctor,

one of those that
mother went to.

- Is that a good idea uh,
well, memories and all?

- I guess I trust him,

one of the few I really trusted.

- Oh, I wish we could have
some good news for you,

we don't have much of it yet.

Seems like we're
at that point where just,

any little, thing
will be a help.

Right now I'd like to see

the chain the dog was
wearing in the park.

Greta's leash?

Why?

- Mm, grasping at
straws I guess,

nothing for you to worry about.

- Well okay, sure.

How is she, Greta?

- Oh fine, maybe a little
more restless than usual.

Here it is.

What's important
about the leash?

- Mm, nothing, probably.

You know, I'm just,
checking on anything.

- You got a headache?

Yeah,

it's an occupational
hazard at my age, I guess.

Ah, it's probably
a lot of sinus too,

there's a lot of dust
in the air today.

- Well let me get
you some aspirin.

- Uh, if you would uh,

I think this will be better,

it's just a little seltzer,

if you'd dump it in a small
glass of water please?

- Sure.

How 'bout some coffee?
- Uh, no no, no thanks,

water is fine.

If you're hungry
I could make you a sandwich,

could give me something to do.

Maybe you haven't eaten.
- No thanks, I had something.

I do appreciate it.

Oh boy, this is a
real sick headache!

- Better wait a while,
it's still bubbling a lot.

That's the
way I like it best.

- My god, what's wrong?

No!

What happened,

what's wrong with him?

- The d--
- Dammit, I want to know

what happened here, now what's

wrong with him?
- No!

Oh, oh!

You get on the phone!

Call an ambulance, now!

Do it!

Hey Greta!

Hey Greta!

Step up.

- Get over here
Greta, come here!

There Greta, good girl!

Oh you are a good girl
Greta, we did well didn't we?

Now I have a surprise for you.

You'll see!

Come on Greta, we're going

to play one of our
favorite games!

Sit!

You're a good girl!

Here girl, go catch it!

Catch it!

Go on, go on!

No!

No!

Stop, no!

No!

Help, no, ah!

Oh, ah...

No!
