"It seems it went out of control and plunged into the river, nearby." "What's the matter?" "I'm a family friend." "I had supper with them last night, and yes, I hired the car." "Regrettably, I lent it to the doctor." "I know I shouldn't have because he was drunk." "Maybe that's why he got so obnoxious." "But... it was late, I was tired..." "Anyway, I shouldn't have done it." "I must ask you some questions." "Ask away." "We understand you were the last person with the doctor." "I guess so, I don't know what he did later." "Explain in the fullest possible detail what you did last night." "I had supper with the Munientes." "I went to leave after midnight but the hire car wouldn't start." "The doctor invited me to stay at his house, I stayed, but I couldn't sleep." "I decided to try to start the car again." "Do you recall what time that was?" "Around 2:30 or 3 in the morning." "Carry on, please." "I managed to start the car, and just then, Dr. Muniente appeared." "He was a little... he was very drunk." "He got in the car before I could stop him." "He asked me to take him to Burgos." "I couldn't refuse." "You humor drunk people like you would crazy people." "What happened then?" "On the way," "I don't know why, but not because of drinking," "I felt sick, nauseous." "I had to stop the car in order to throw up." "A couple of Civil Guards appeared and asked us for our papers." "A bit later, we got to my place, the doctor asked to borrow the car." "Again I couldn't refuse, which I regret now, but he was so wound up, so obnoxious, acting strangely..." "The Civil Guard approached you at 3:50." "Did the doctor tell you where he was going?" "Confidentially," "I think it was to a house of prostitution." "I can't recall the name." "I got into bed, I read, and turned out the light at 8 sharp." "I remember that because I counted the church bells." "The forensic scientist says the doctor died around 7 a.m. What were you doing at that time?" "I was in bed, reading." "I told you." "Did the doctor commit suicide?" "I can't find a motive."

"I notice there are more of your prints in the car than the doctor's:" "on the wheel, the gearstick..." "I drove most of the time." "How do you know how long the doctor drove?" "You idiot, don't talk any more than you have to." "It looks like his hands were positioned in order to leave prints." "The forensic guy says the body has a bruise on the nape of its neck, as if he were punched." "You're not suggesting I killed him?" "Look, I have the nagging feeling that you did."

"You're mixed up in some very serious business." "Very serious, my good man." "Very serious." "I'll make this clear to you." "We know you killed Dr. Muniente." "I didn't kill anyone." "We prove what we want to prove." "Don't go thinking we're in Geneva." " Paris." " That's it." "My friend, I maintain that we know you killed him." "This is not a supposition." "We have ways of making you confess." "I'd like to put it another way, but we've no time to waste on you." "What I mean is..." "It's a pity that a person of your standing is involved in such a foul murder." "We expect a great deal from you." "We don't have a surplus of learned men, untainted by ideology." "What do you mean?" "What I mean is that we're interested in you." "Your record is impeccable, your job is first-class, at UNESCO," "and you're in Spain to write a report on Human Rights and other crap."

"I maintain that I didn't kill anyone." "I realize you're flustered." "We'll get down to brass tacks." "This morning we searched your mother's house, but not for you, for your sister." "Your little sister, who's also a commie." "Or didn't you know?" "We didn't find what we were looking for." "Nor does you know what we were looking for." "Fine." "Confess, and you walk out of here a free man, but... you will help us find what we're after." "How?" "It's very simple." "You tell your sister you'll act as a courier and then you hand the film to us, as well as, and allow me to emphasize this, a statement against the E.T.A. murderers." "We'll dictate this statement word for word and take care of its distribution in the press, on radio and TV." "What do you think?" "Is it clear now?" "Yes." "And if I don't confess?" "If you don't confess, we'll make you confess, and you'll be a convicted criminal, a confessed murderer." "I didn't kill anyone." "And I'm not cooperating."

" You betrayed your friends." " I saved you." "When I gave them the film, I already knew about the pardon." "This time, we won." "...sentenced to death by court-martial, have been spared..." "TWO MONTHS LATER" ""WE ARE ABOUT TO WAKE UP," "WHEN WE DREAM WE ARE DREAMING."" ""Distant, Desired"" ""Desired, distant, yet so close, almost within my grasp." "Your body offered to the passer-by as if fruit from the tree, with the marks of other teeth, but laden with juice, of smouldering moistness," "born for my thirst, horizontal in the sky, your skin smouldering, your hair alive, coursing all over your reclining body," "born for my thirst, body of evil, unblemished, on fire, impenetrable, I see you in my sleep, above all, your reclining body," "horizontal on the horizon, perfect flesh, offered, and my heart runs... and my heart runs all over your reclining body, from your skin to my skin, an eternal journey..." "Ray of moist light, daughter of time without beginning," "eternal thread of life, fulfil my yearnings without delay." "Ray of moist light, after everything, before..." "My death desires to be yours, it is for me the core of your body," "later, never..." "MAN IS NOT TRULY ONE, BUT TRULY TWO." "I SAY TWO, BECAUSE THE STATE OF MY OWN KNOWLEDGE..." "DOES NOT PASS BEYOND THAT POINT."
