- But when I was down in the bath...

- (shushes) Come on.

- No.

- [Man] Weapon went right through the vertebrae,

severed the spinal cord and pierced the heart.

- The guy's an animal.

The knife went right through the chair.

- Well, that shouldn't be too hard to do.

- [Man] Gamble's here, Frank.

- [Man] You kidding?

Back of those chairs are metal.

- [Man] No, there was...

- Len, how are you?

(people chattering)

- This better be good, Frank.

- Well, I just thought you might like to see this one.

- (coughs) Couldn't it wait till morning?

- Yeah.

Yeah, it could've.

But I don't think you could've.

Come on.

Come on.

(people chattering)

- [Man] She just told me the whole story.

- Yeah, all right.

Can we hear it again, sweetheart?

- Oh.

She came back from the bathroom

and she said something about someone following her.

But I thought she was imagining it,

that the movie, you know, got to her.

I don't know, maybe if we'd have left, she'd still be alive.

(Ruthie sobs)

- [Len] Frank, come here.

- Thank you.

Thank you, sweetheart.

(people chattering)

(Len coughs)

(people chattering)

- Frank, why'd you get me out of bed for this one?

- She was getting married, Len.

Next week.

- I bet it's him.

- Now, wait, wait, don't jump to any conclusions.

I mean, it might be a coincidence.

- Coincidence?

- [Frank] Yeah.

- No, Frank, he's back.

He's giving me a second chance.

He's giving me a second chance.

(dramatic music)

(cheerful piano music) (people chattering)

- What do you call that?

- Hey, this is "Doll of Manhattan."

- Yeah?

I'm putting all my trust in you.

(man chuckles)

- You like it, Phoebe?

- You look like the Statue of Liberty.

(cheerful piano music) (people chattering)

Len has never played it.

- [Len] What's your favorite song?

Come on and tell me.

I'll play it.

- [Man] Well, it's a big clay, big day for you, Len.

(cheerful piano music)

(people chattering)

- What are you doing here?

Look, I think you should leave.

Ray, listen, I'm sorry things worked out the way they did.

I didn't plan any of this.

It just happened, okay?

Now, come on, would you leave, please?

Ray?

Ray, come on, get... (penknife snaps)

Ray (groans).

(dramatic music) (woman groaning)

(dramatic music)

- Hey, Amy.

- Yeah?

- You gonna miss me?

- Oh, probably not.

(chuckles) Hey, I was only kidding.

Of course I'm going to miss you.

I love you.

You're always so serious.

Are you going to miss me?

- Sure. - Yeah?

- Hey, um, while I'm away, do you think

you could pick up that couch I wanted for the living room?

- Oh, it's so exciting.

Gosh, you go away for a bachelor's weekend

and I get to pick out furniture.

- Come on, watch your step, you guys.

(children chattering)

- Just what are you gonna do this weekend?

- Well, I don't know.

I mean, Joyce and Nancy are sleeping over, and...

- Okay, you ready to sing that song I taught you?

- [All Children] Yeah.

- Don't let me catch that Marvin hanging around or I'll...

- What's wrong with you, guys?

I can't count on you for anything.

- Hey, Bernie.

- How are you? - Hi.

How was it? - Okay.

- Yeah? - We had a good time.

- Yeah? - How's everything?

- Okay. - Fine.

- What'd you think of my present?

- Don't we get money?

- Phil. - A stack of ones

at the wedding.

- [Woman] Hey, private!

- Come on.

- Hi there. - All right.

- Hottest pornos in town.

- And we pick up the women on the way.

- Mary?

- And Evelyn and Ginny.

- All right! - It's gonna be good.

- Hey, you guys, what's going on down there?

- Come on, let's get going.

I wanna get there before dark.

- All right.

- Have a good time up there, okay?

- I'll try. - Yeah?

Don't drink too much beer.

You know what it does to you.

- Bye-bye, kid. - Mm-hmm.

- Bye.

Watch out for lions and tigers and bears.

(women laughing)

Bye. - Bye-bye.

- Bye. - Be good.

- Bernie, there really aren't any bears up there, are there?

- [Bernie] Um, sometimes.

(suspenseful music)

- [Amy] Hey, how can they have a good time

without us up there?

- Let me count the ways.

If there's a woman up there, Tommy will find her.

He's got a sixth sense about that.

- All men have that sense.

It's the only sense they got.

- All right, let's go through it one more time.

(suspect sighs)

- It's like I've been telling you.

We were sitting there watching the movie

and this chick, she just started screaming.

Everybody was screaming.

- You didn't see anybody leave the theater?

- No, uh, no.

- You sure?

- I was watching the movie, man.

- How about you?

- I...

I had my eyes dosed.

- All right, you can go, come on.

- Look, I'm sorry we couldn't be any help, but...

- I hope you catch him.

- Yeah.

- Was that the last one?

Ah.

- One, two, three, four.

Up, two, three, four.

Stretch, two, three, four.

Up, two, three, four.

Over, two, three, four.

Up, two, three, four.

Down, two, three, four.

Up... - What time is it?

- Quarter to one.

- Oh, thank God, only 15 more minutes.

- Quit dogging it, Joyce.

- Sometimes I think I'm a masochist.

- It's good for you.

Relieves frustrations.

- I prefer sex. (girl laughs)

- Come on, girls, no talking.

Okay, legs off the bar, fifth position.

Ready, and kick, plié, kick, plié.

Kick, plié, kick, plié.

Higher, plié, higher, plié.

Up, plié, up, plié. (girls laugh)

Okay, girls, take five.

(girls laugh)

- Two more weeks, Amy.

- Yeah, I know.

- You sound thrilled.

- Well, it's just happening so fast, you know?

And I'm not sure I wanna get married.

I mean, not just to Phil, to anybody.

- Personally, I always liked Marvin.

- One of your few failures.

- I tried hard.

The guy's got willpower.

- You know, Phil doesn't even want me to have a career.

He's hinting I should quit school.

- Mm, not exactly your liberated male.

- Mm-mm.

- Now, you take Bernie. - I'll take Bernie.

- [Amy] Yeah,

she will take Bernie. - Don't you dare.

(Amy laughs)

Bernie has lots of money, and he'll do anything I say.

- What about that professor?

- Yeah. - Hmm.

- Ooh, darling, that's lust,

pure lust. - Oh, give me a break.

(girls laugh)

- Well, it's a chance to ace philosophy this weekend.

Oh, it's too bad they don't give anything higher

than an A, like a double A, or a triple A.

My average could sure use it. - That's for sure.

- Who asked you? (girls laugh)

- [Instructor] Everybody up.

- Oh, shit.

Come on.

Hey, Amy, you don't have to get married, you know.

(gentle music)

- [Instructor] Ready, and...

- You gonna stay the night?

- Uh, your parents are away for a week,

right? - Right.

- I'm staying a week.

- Good!

- Look who's coming.

- Hey, you know, he's really cute when he's not teaching.

- Is that his wife?

- Doesn't she know about you?

- No, no.

What do you think?

(indistinct)

- Oh, right, the party. - I have to go back

on Tuesday.

- That's right.

- I'd like to go on Wednesday, too.

What?

What's the matter?

- Hello, Professor.

- Hi.

Do I know you?

- We're in your class.

- Oh, that's right, my class. (chuckles)

- Right, right.

- They're in my class, right. - Yeah.

- The, uh, introductory class, right?

- Right. - That's the one.

- Yeah. - That's right, beginners.

- That's nice.

- Mm-hmm, we thought so.

- Oh, this is my wife, and this is...

Oh, I'm sorry, I seem to have forgotten your names.

- I'm Joyce.

- How do you do, Joyce?

- This is Nancy.

- Hello. - Hi, Nancy.

- And that's Amy. - Hi.

- [Professor's Wife] Hi.

- I think you girls should hurry home

and study for Monday's final.

- You wouldn't give me an F now, would you, Professor?

- I think that's the right idea, Professor...

- Bye, nice to meet you.

- Bye.

- Come on, Joyce. - Bye, see you Monday.

- Study hard.

(girls laugh)

- What was that all about? - These kids,

sometimes they really seem a little foolish.

(girls laugh)

- I'm gonna bust his balls tonight.

- Joyce.

- Well, I am.

- Come on, you guys, or I'll be late for my fitting.

- Yeah, right. - Okay.

- I'll see you tonight.

- All right. - Bye.

(people chattering) (birds chirping)

(upbeat music) (people chattering)

- Goddammit!

(upbeat music)

(dramatic music)

(tires screech) (horn honks)

- [Driver] Watch where you're going!

(suspenseful music)

- [Woman] I mean, really, this is the place

to come for ice cream.

- Can I help you?

- Yeah, an ice cream cone, please.

- What flavor?

(people chattering)

- Um...

That one.

- Sugar cone?

- [Amy] Sure.

- One or two scoops?

(siren blaring) - Well, just one.

- [Woman] Raspberry.

Mm.

Oh, my God, this is so good.

I think

I'm gonna have another. - You're really enjoying it,

aren't you?

- Mm, delicious.

Mm.

(people laughing)

(people chattering)

(suspenseful music)

- Sprinkles?

- [Woman] Well, I don't know, you know, (indistinct).

- Huh? - Sprinkles?

- Oh, no, thanks,

that's all right. - That's 50 cents.

- Oh, I'm sorry.

There.

Thank you very much.

(dramatic music)

(Amy gasps) - Hey, will you watch it?

Ugh.

This is my favorite shirt. - Marvin!

- What are you doing here?

- This was my favorite shirt.

Now I'll probably have to give it

to one of the stiffs at work. (Amy chuckles)

- I thought somebody was following me.

- Probably one of Phil's watchdogs.

Will you look at my shirt?

- It'll come out, Marvin.

- It won't, this stuff stains, it's like blood.

- Oh, come on.

(people chattering)

Hi. - Hi.

- Could we have some water,

please? - Yeah.

- I spilled something.

- How'd you know where I'd be?

- You have a fitting at Renaissance followed

by a rendezvous with Father McKenna.

- You've been cross-examining my little sister again, huh?

- Me?

Never. - Thank you.

Oh.

- She told me that turkey left town for his bachelor party.

- Phil's not a turkey.

- Okay.

He's an asshole.

- Don't say that, Marvin.

- How about the time he beat me up and stole my yo-yo?

- Marvin, that was in the sixth grade!

- I don't forget things like that.

(Amy sighs)

At least this time he didn't beat me up.

- And I wasn't stolen, Marvin, you just lost me.

- I left town for one lousy summer

and Phil sweeps you off your feet?

- Well, you shouldn't have gone.

- You shouldn't marry somebody on the rebound.

- Rebound?

- This is such a pleasant place.

Why are they looking like that?

- I'm the one that ended our relationship.

- That's all right.

I forgive you.

(people laughing)

- Uh, did you just come from the morgue?

- Yeah.

They got me on days now.

The regular guy died.

I gave him my best freezer.

Ah. (Amy laughs)

- Why are you still working there?

- I like it.

It's fun.

Cool in the summer.

- Ugh. - Very educational.

- Are you still going into...

What's that called?

- Forensic medicine. - Forensic medicine.

- You know, like Jack Klugman.

Amy... - Boy.

- Don't marry Phil.

- Two weeks from Sunday, you coming?

- Well, I thought it was very mature of you

to invite your old boyfriend to your wedding.

And to show you how mature I can be, I ain't gonna be there.

- Suit yourself.

- You're too good for Phil, Amy.

Look, marry me!

Phil's weird.

He's got insanity in his family.

He's a closet!

(truck engine whirring)

- [Amy] Ralph, where's Roz?

- [Ralph] Out of town.

Her sister got sick. (chuckles)

- [Amy] Oh.

- She's a beauty, isn't she?

Come on, let's put it on.

(Amy coughs)

Try not breathing.

That's what Roz does.

- [Amy] Ralph?

- Yeah.

- Is it worth it?

- Huh?

- Well, getting married, I mean.

- (chuckles) Get dressed, kid.

I'll tell you the truth, though:

sometimes I wish I never got married.

But other times, I wouldn't trade Roz for anybody.

(Ralph chuckles)

Marriage is like that.

Good times, bad times, you learn to live with it,

but it's better than being alone.

- [Amy] Ralph?

- Yeah.

Oh, that's beautiful.

Come here.

Hey.

(Ralph chuckles)

Good.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

Okay, there you are.

Mm-hmm, now turn around, turn around.

Yeah, that's it. (Amy coughs)

What? - I'm sorry.

- It's all right, I'll get rid of it.

Yeah.

Lift.

Good.

There, just one more.

It's all right, just think of me as your father. (chuckles)

Yes, now

you put it on.

Mm-hmm.

Turn.

That's beautiful.

Finished.

Okay, take it off.

(gentle music)

(thumping)

- Is anybody there?

Ralph?

(footsteps pattering)

(suspenseful music)

(footsteps pattering)

(suspenseful music) (heart beating)

(man panting)

- Run away with me.

We'll move to New York

and exist on our intense love for each other.

What do you say?

How about it?

- Get out of here, Marvin.

- I wanna talk to you.

- Well, not now.

- [Marvin] When?

- Tomorrow.

- What time tomorrow?

- Seven.

- Good.

Bye.

(Amy chuckles)

(Amy sighs)

You didn't say good-bye.

- Good-bye,

hard head. - That's better.

(Marvin sighs)

Thanks, Ralph.

So long.

- So long, kid.

(doorbell dings)

- Oh, Ralph, here.

And tell Rozalind I hope her sister feels better soon.

- Oh, she better feel better soon.

I haven't had a good meal in three days.

Anyway, I'm not so hot on customer relations.

(dramatic music) (Ralph groans)

- You're not so bad.

(dramatic music) (Ralph groans)

(repetitive thudding) (Ralph groans)

Tell Rozalind I'll see her next week.

Bye-bye.

(doorbell dings)

(traffic humming)

(suspenseful music)

(liquid dripping)

(ominous organ music)

(Amy gasps)

- Amy.

- [Amy] Hello, Father.

- [Father McKenna] Is this what's bothering you, Amy?

- [Amy] Yes.

- (chuckles) You see, this is rusty water

from a very leaky pipe.

If I ever remember, I'm going to have

to call a plumber and get it fixed.

- Gosh.

Oh, but the organ.

- Oh, yes, the organ.

Well, that's Mr. Smith, my cat.

You see, he's very fond of playing the organ,

and very good, too.

(Amy chuckles)

Anything else?

- No, I think that's quite enough.

(Father McKenna chuckles)

- Amy, are you still having second thoughts?

- More than ever.

- Well.

You know, that's not so very strange.

I know a lot of people who have been married for years

and they're still having second thoughts.

- That's encouraging. (Father McKenna chuckles)

- But they should've never been married to begin with.

They just made bad decisions and picked incompatible mates.

- Are you trying to tell me something, Father?

- Me?

No, I don't meddle.

I just want you to be sure.

So, tell me, when are your parents coming home?

- [Amy] Oh, next week.

- That's nice. - Yeah.

- [Father McKenna] I'll be glad to see your father.

- [Amy] Mm.

(dramatic music)

- [Women] Surprise!

(women chattering)

- [Amy] What's in here?

- [Woman] It's probably very expensive.

- [Woman] Oh.

(women cheering)

- I bet I know who that's from.

- My God!

Phil won't be able to keep his hands off me.

- [Woman] You need it.

(suspenseful music) (women chattering)

- [Joyce] I gotta go.

- Oh, you're seeing the professor.

- Hmm. - Have a good time.

- I'm so nervous.

- All right. - Mm.

I need that A.

- [Woman] Leaving so soon?

(woman laughs) - Right.

Look, cover for me if my folks call.

I told them I was gonna stay over.

- Oh, sure, absolutely.

- Don't be surprised if you don't hear from me until Sunday.

- Oh, my God.

I won't be.

I won't be. - Okay, bye-bye.

- Have a good time.

- I will. - And thank you.

- [Joyce] Oh, you're welcome.

- Bye. - Bye.

(women chattering)

- [Amy] Bye.

Bye, Joyce.

Oh, God, he's gonna love this.

(suspenseful music) (women chattering)

(Len sighs)

- [Len] What do you got?

You got something?

- Yeah.

Middle-aged man.

Killed and robbed over in Westfield.

- So?

I'm not interested in middle-aged men, Frank.

This guy kills brides, young brides.

All right, Frank, give me the rest of it.

- It was at a bridal shop.

- That's him.

I'm on my way.

- And I'm gonna call them and tell them you're coming.

- Yeah, you tell them I'm coming.

Don't you tell them anything else.

- [Frank] Len, I gotta tell them something.

- Frank, give me some time.

- Now, wait a minute.

I'm looking at trouble here, Len.

You know what I'm saying?

- And you know how badly I want him.

(dramatic music)

- Well, what happens if you don't get him?

- I'll get him. - What happens

if you don't?

- [Len] I'll get him!

(dramatic music)

- 36 hours.

- Thanks, Frank.

Tell 'em not to touch anything.

Not a damn thing.

- What's going on here?

- Sit down.

You remember the Carlton case?

Joann Carlton?

No, no, you wouldn't remember.

You weren't even here.

A bride was killed an hour before her wedding.

Len was gonna marry her.

Now he goes nuts for quite a while.

He spends three years tracking this psycho.

The guy's leaving a trail of bodies behind him.

(Amy and Nancy laugh)

- Sure you made it?

- You seen Marvin around lately?

- Seen him around?

I can't get rid of the guy.

You know, the closer it gets to my wedding,

the bigger pain he gets to be.

- [Nancy] Tell him to get lost.

- I can't.

I like him.

- Maybe you should marry him instead of Phil.

(Amy sighs)

- And spend the rest of my life joking about dead bodies?

No, thank you.

- Oh, you know, here's this real cute guy

I see jogging every morning.

- [Amy] Yeah?

- He stares at me all the time.

(Nancy chuckles)

- So why don't you let him pick you up?

- No, I couldn't do that.

- Why not?

(Nancy chuckles)

- You think I should?

- Definitely.

- I don't know.

Okay, I will. (chuckles)

- Good.

So, here is to you and the jogger.

(Joyce giggles)

- No.

Stay away from me.

I won't do it in the kitchen.

- Come back in here.

(both laugh)

You shouldn't have done that this afternoon.

- Done what?

(both laugh)

- Don't you play Miss Innocent with me.

You could've gotten my wife suspicious.

- You know, I was thinking about what you were telling us

in class last week.

- You mean you actually learned something?

- I sure did.

(Carl chuckles)

I think we ought to have a Platonic relationship.

(Carl laughs)

- You're kidding.

- [Joyce] No,

- Don't believe that bullshit.

- But you said that Plato... - It's all bullshit.

- Plato is bullshit? - Philosophy is bullshit.

- [Joyce] Ah.

- Now, this is what it's all about.

(Joyce giggles)

Joyce.

(Joyce giggles)

Joyce!

(Joyce chuckles)

Where are you?

I don't like the dark, Joyce.

(ominous music)

- You come any closer, and I'll jump.

- We've been playing around for an hour.

- Aw, poor Carl.

- Damn right.

Poor Carl will start playing with himself in a minute

if you don't stop fooling around.

- I thought you wanted me to start fooling around.

- You know what I mean.

- [Joyce] Mm.

(both chuckle)

- Come on, let's do it on the table.

- I told you, the table's too hard.

- No, it's not.

- Ha-ha, that's easy for you to say,

I'm the one on the bottom.

- I got you now. - Carl.

- What are you gonna do? - Carl.

- What are you gonna do? - Carl.

- What are you gonna do, huh?

- [Joyce] Come on, it's spooky out here.

- Oh, yeah? - Yeah.

- I'm gonna leave you out there a little longer.

(Joyce giggles)

What are you gonna do now, huh?

You gonna cut it out?

- Yes. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You promise?

Promise? - Yes.

- [Carl] Promise?

- Yes.

- Gonna do it on the table? - I'll do it on the table,

you son of a bitch!

- You sure?

(Joyce giggles)

(ominous music)

(thudding) (Carl groans)

Oh, I'll kill you.

I'm gonna give you an F!

- Prr! - Ow.

Bitch.

Oh, that hurt.

(Joyce giggles)

Aw.

(Joyce giggles)

Now.

(both laugh)

All right.

- Hold it!

- [Carl] What now?

- Now, you wouldn't give me an F, now, would you, Professor?

(Carl sighs)

Well?

- [Carl] An A +.

(Joyce moans)

(ominous music) (clock ticking)

(Carl and Joyce giggle)

Come on up here.

Come on.

(ominous music) (footsteps pattering)

(Joyce gasps)

- Did you hear something?

- No.

- Maybe it's your wife.

- She won't be back until Monday.

- You sure? - Mm-hmm.

- [Joyce] Mm-hmm.

(ominous music)

What was that?

- [Carl] The darkness.

- Please stop it, Carl. - Oh, brother.

- What happened to the lights? - It was probably just a fuse.

Come on.

- Go see what it is. - I don't wanna go see

what it is!

- Go check it out. - It's dark out there!

- [Joyce] Listen, brave one, you ain't getting nothing

until the lights get back on.

- [Carl] Nothing?

- [Joyce] Zilch.

- [Carl] Oh, shit!

You better be here when I get back.

(clicking)

(clock ticking)

(thumping)

- [Joyce] What happened?

- I fell.

- Don't hurt yourself.

- Thanks.

(footsteps pattering)

(suspenseful music) (footsteps pattering)

(electricity crackling)

That's it.

(suspenseful music)

Forget it.

I'll get it fixed tomorrow.

It's too damned dark down there.

No lights.

Weird sounds.

Hey, what's the matter with you?

Hmm?

I've come to suck your blood.

(Carl chuckles)

Hey.

What the heck?

(ominous music)

(repetitive thudding) (ominous music)

(doorbell ringing)

- [Amy] Who is it?

- The bogeyman.

- Marvin.

Marvin.

- Joe sent me.

- What are you doing here?

- Well, you said come by at seven.

- Not seven o'clock in the morning.

(splashing)

- There you go, Syd.

It's your new home.

Give him room, you guys.

I just got off work.

They got me on night shift again.

- Why are you still bringing me fish?

- Remember what I told you when I gave you this tank?

- Mm-hmm.

Every time you visit me, you're gonna bring me a fish.

- Correct.

Well, I'm visiting you,

and that's a fish. - And that's a fish.

That's dumb, Marvin.

That's really dumb.

Besides, I'm sick of goldfish.

- [Marvin] Marry me, and I'll bring you a piranha.

- That's a tempting offer, but I'll pass.

- [Marvin] How about if I cried?

(Marvin weeps) (Amy laughs)

- Oh, Marvin.

You know, there are plenty of other girls

that would love to go out with you.

Lorna, for one.

- She only wants me for my body.

How about if I begged?

Please?

- Just give it a rest, Marvin.

(Marvin sighs)

- [Marvin] So, tell me,

is it true what I've been hearing on campus?

- What have you been hearing on campus?

- That you dumped Phil.

- You don't give up, do you?

- I did once.

January 5th, 1973.

Remember Mary O'Connor? - Ha.

The Virgin Mary.

- That's the one.

I took her to the drive-in movie.

She said no, and I stopped.

I believed her.

- But you've always been a gentlemen, Marvin.

- It was the biggest mistake I ever made.

Later I found out she was saying no

to everybody a couple of times before giving in.

- But I've said no more than a couple of times.

- Well, maybe I haven't asked the question enough.

- Would you like some coffee?

- Mm, no, not for me.

It's no good for you. - Aw.

- You ought to see what it does to the liver.

It makes me sick just to think about it.

You know El Exigente, the guy that drinks all the coffee?

He has no liver.

Coffee is a liver destroyer.

(ominous music) (Marin murmurs)

We had this one stiff we opened

about a week ago. - Marvin?

- His liver looked like it'd been punched...

- [Amy] Marvin!

- What?

Don't you wanna hear... - Marvin?

- [Marvin] What are the effects of coffee

on the liver. - Look outside.

(clock ticking)

(Marvin sighs)

- Okay, I looked.

(clock ticking)

- [Amy] He's gone.

- Who's gone?

- That man.

- What man?

- That man who's following me.

He's gone.

- Amy, why would anybody wanna follow you?

- I don't know.

But now he knows where I live.

- Wait just a second.

(Amy chuckles)

- [Amy] Oh, Marvin.

- I didn't see anybody.

- [Amy] I'm scared, Marvin.

- Hey, if I'd have known it was this easy

I would've scared you a long time ago.

- You don't believe me.

You think I imagined the whole thing.

- Amy, there wasn't anybody out there.

- Yes, there was.

- No.

- [Nancy] Can't a girl get any sleep around here?

Hello, Marvin. - Hi.

- Somebody die?

- How you doing, Nance?

- Aw, I've got an awful hangover.

- Aw.

- Are you making coffee?

- [Amy] Yeah.

- Good, I need it.

We're not gonna run today, are we?

- Oh, yeah, of course we are.

We've gotta meet that friend of yours.

- Oh, yeah.

I'll probably throw up all over him.

(Marvin laughs)

- [Amy] What's wrong with you?

- Hey, Marvin.

I think I ate too much cake last night.

- (chuckles) This is some lively group.

I think I gotta go.

- Uh, we're going to the amusement park later.

Would you like to come?

- Oh, I wish I could, but I'm dissecting a cat

in biology later this week. - Oh.

- I need to pick up a few strays so I can practice.

(Diane retches)

That's what everybody says. (Amy laughs)

(gentle piano music)

Amy, if you need me, you know where to reach me.

- Thanks, Marv.

- You haven't called me that since...

(gentle piano music)

(sighs) Take care.

(gentle piano music)

(Amy sighs)

(gentle piano music)

(doorbell rings)

(people chattering)

- [Len] I'm Gamble.

"Daily Globe." - Oh, yes.

They're in the back.

They're waiting for you.

- You Gamble?

Took you long enough.

Well, I'd like to know what the hell's going on around here.

I got the guys from the lab hanging around doing nothing,

the reporters crawling all over my back,

and I gotta wait for you.

Look, we didn't touch nothing.

The guy cleaned out the cash register.

I don't understand why the hell you're so damn interested

in an open and shut case.

It's a simple robbery and murder.

Look, pal, you wouldn't be holding back

on me now, would you?

(doorbell rings)

(footsteps pattering)

- Detective Thompson, you got a whole mess

of people outside.

They wanna know what's going on.

- Take care of them.

(people chattering)

- Let's go out there.

(people chattering)

(doorbell rings)

(people chattering)

(siren blaring)

- [Len] "Amy Jensen."

- Those guys are always down my throat.

- Listen... - The name's Thompson.

- Thompson.

Anybody else work here?

- Yeah, the dead guy's wife. - Find her.

She might be able to help.

- And what are you gonna be doing?

- Sleeping.

I had a long drive.

- He's a big help.

(upbeat music)

(Amy and Nancy laugh)

(upbeat music)

(birds chirping)

- You know I don't have the time now.

There he is!

See him? - Ah.

That's your victim?

- [Nancy] Yeah.

Isn't he cute? - Yeah.

Why don't you go get him?

Go on. - Okay.

- Go on. - Okay, I'll see you later.

- Okay.

(upbeat music)

- Aw.

(Nancy chuckles)

I'm too tired to scream from the pain you just caused me.

- Oh, I'm sorry. - Oh, don't be.

I stretched out an extra foot to make sure I'd trip you.

- Why'd you do that?

- Well, it seemed the best way to meet you.

- Oh.

- My name's Elliot.

- Hi.

How do you do?

I'm Nancy. (laughs)

I hate jogging.

- Oh, so do I.

(dog barking)

(dramatic music)

- I know who the next girl is, Frank.

Never mind how.

I just know who it is.

All I have to do is wait for her to lead me to him.

Frank, it's my case.

Leave them out of it.

(cheerful music) (people chattering)

(people screaming)

(cheerful music)

(people chattering)

- Too bad they don't have a roller coaster.

- Thank God for the small things.

- Don't you like to be scared, Am?

- [Amy] No.

- Most people do, actually.

I mean, like to be scared.

It's something primal, something basic.

Horror movies and the roller coasters

and the House of Horror rides.

- I wanna go on that next.

- And you can face death without any real fear of dying.

It's safe.

You can leave the movie or get off the ride

with a vicarious thrill and the feeling

that you just conquered death.

One hell of a first class rush.

- Don't tell me, you're a psych major.

- Oh, good deductive guess.

I'm most interested in fear, the emotion of fear.

For example, why, after seeing "Psycho,"

were so many people afraid to take showers?

- Not me.

I never saw the movie.

- You were afraid, right?

- You bet.

- Fear fascinates me.

People pay to be scared.

And when you think about it, it's really ridiculous.

Give me some. - Ridiculous.

That's the word I was looking for.

- Oh, Amy's been a little edgy lately.

She's getting married

in two weeks. - Mm.

- And she thinks some maniac's following her around.

- Oh.

Guilt.

Freud would have a field day with that.

- You see?

Now you have a professional opinion.

- Thank you.

- [Elliot] Is he a big man?

- Let's just forget about it, okay?

- No, no, answer my question.

Is he a big man?

(cheerful music)

- Yes.

- Definitely sexual.

- Oh.

Let's just change the subject, all right?

- [Elliot] Have you seen this man while you were with us?

- No.

- [Elliot] And you won't.

The hallucination will only manifest itself

when you're alone.

- How far are you in psych?

- Psych One.

Introduction to Psychology. - An expert.

- Want a Goober?

- [Nancy] No, thanks.

- Amy? - No, thank you.

(cheerful music) (people screaming)

(ominous music)

(people chattering)

- Come on.

Come on, Am.

- What do you want, Diane? - I want cotton candy.

- Cotton candy.

Okay, one cotton candy.

- Yeah, yeah. - Okay.

- Oh. - Okay, then.

- Hey, you got any change? - Are you serious?

- [Amy] Here you go.

- Oh, no, all I have is a five.

- [Elliot] That's okay, how much is this?

- $4. - We'll take it.

I want you to have this. - Thank you.

- And I want you to have this, too.

Now I owe you four. - You sure?

- [Elliot] Yeah.

- Come on, let's go. - Come on, let's go.

(indistinct)

- Hey, Amy?

I think we'll skip this one.

- What, you wanna leave?

- Yeah.

I'll meet you back home, okay?

- Sure.

Have uh...

Have a real good time. - Okay, bye.

- Bye. - Bye.

- Say, have you got a dime?

- What for?

- Well, I wanna call my roommate

and have him vacate the premises.

- Why?

- Well, I thought we'd play a game of backgammon.

- I don't like to play games.

- Oh, God, that was scary.

- Come on, Am, I have two more tickets.

- No, no, really,

this is silly. - Come on, let's go.

Please, come on.

It's just a ride. - All right, come on.

(bell ringing)

(people chattering) (cheerful music)

- If you're scared, Amy, you can hold onto me.

(thunder rumbling)

(monster grunts) (women scream)

(monster grunts) (women scream)

(bell rings)

(monster growls) (women scream)

(women scream)

- [Girl] Oh, my God.

(women scream)

Oh, my God.

(women scream)

Oh, my God, no!

(women scream) (monsters grunt)

(thunder rumbling)

Oh, my God!

(women scream)

(ominous music) (women scream)

(indistinct)

(monster growls) (women scream)

(cheerful music)

- Boy, that was great.

Let's do it again!

(cheerful music) (people chattering)

- No, let's...

Come on.

- Amy, come on.

(cheerful music) (people chattering)

Amy?

- Now, come on.

(people chattering)

- [Man] All right, come on.

(people laughing)

Hey, Phil, come on!

We're waiting for you.

- [Man] Let's go.

Hey, Phil, get me a beer.

Hey, you get that thing? - Come on, keep it down.

Hey, put it back.

Come on, put it back.

Hey, Phil, come on.

(man laughing)

Phil, (indistinct).

- Come on, Amy, answer the phone.

(crickets chirping) (phone ringing)

- [Man] What is he?

- [Man] Phil, he's on the phone.

- [Man] Hey, Phil, come on!

- [Woman] Hey, Phil, I'm waiting for you.

(crickets chirping)

- Are you really gonna marry that turkey?

I don't like Phil.

Marry Marvin.

I like him.

He makes me laugh and helps me with my homework.

Sometimes Phil helps me with my homework

and he gives me the answers all wrong.

Besides, Phil's younger brother is even a bigger asshole

than he is.

- Hi, guys. - Hi, Nance.

How's Elliot? - Oh, he's fine.

- We saved you a burger.

- Oh, no, thanks.

Elliot's taking me out to dinner tonight.

- Oh.

- Why don't you run upstairs and get your knapsack?

It's almost time for me to take you to that party.

- Oh, okay.

- I saw him again, Nancy.

- What, that man?

- Yeah.

- When?

- Today at the amusement park.

He must've followed me there.

I saw him after you and Elliot left.

- Amy, are you sure this is the same man?

- Of course I'm sure.

- Okay, look, I'm gonna cancel my plans with Elliot tonight.

- Oh, no, that's silly.

You don't have to do that.

- I know I don't have to, but I want to.

Amy, I'm worried about you. - I'm ready!

- You'll be here when I get back?

- Yeah, I'm not going anywhere.

Just hurry back, okay?

- I will.

(dog barking)

(thumping)

- Amy?

Diane?

You two forget something?

(crickets chirping)

(clock ticking)

- [Amy] See you tomorrow.

- [Diane] Bye.

Can't you see the one-way sign

for crying out loud?

You just come down the street any way you like?

You're a dope! - Son of a bitch!

- I'm a cop,

for Christ's sakes. - Here, here.

- Come on, come on. - You idiot.

- Jerk bastard!

(car engine whirring)

Yes, it's a tie ball game once more.

And now looking for the 2-3 zone.

- Oh, Marvin. - Amy.

Amy, what is it?

What's the matter?

- He's after me, Marvin.

He's trying to kill me.

He killed Nancy. - Who?

What are you talking about?

- The man that I saw through the window.

You remember?

He's after me.

He's here, he's trying to kill me.

- Amy, we've been through all this before.

Nobody's after you.

Nobody's trying to kill you.

There's nobody... (banging on door)

(sports commentator murmuring) (dramatic music)

Oh, shit.

You mean this whole thing's been on the level?

- Yes.

What are we going to do?

- Do?

Uh.

You're gonna call the police, and I'll go check it out.

I'll be right back. - Oh, no, Marvin, please,

be careful.

- You don't have to tell me that.

I'll be right back.

Call the cops.

- Sure.

(dramatic music)

(phone ringing)

- Ah!

- [Amy] Marvin?

(dramatic music)

- This is Gamble.

Get me Thompson.

I'm at the residence of an Amy Jensen.

That's at 242 Warden.

There's been a homicide.

- [Man] Did you say Jensen?

- That's right.

- [Man] An Amy Jensen just called from the morgue

and said that someone was trying to kill her.

- Where the hell is the goddamn morgue?

- [Man] It's on Walnut and South Street.

All you have to do...
