"Mrs. chelnick." "Looks like about a pound and half here, Mrs. hollander." "Oh, I don't think that'll be enough, Dave." "Well, it always blows up a little when you grind it." "Uh, well, I guess you know best." "Hey, you're paying for that ice cream bar." "Ah, that's right." "Give it to him." "Give him time off for college." "Of course by 6:15, Mrs. chelnick." "You know what that boy's gonna do for you?" "He's gonna open a butcher's down the street." "Put you out of business." "Have I ever disappointed you before?" "[Chuckling]" "And I'm not going to start now." "But you come by tomorrow yourself, ok?" "(Mrs.chelnick) Iwill,Ernie." "I miss seein' that lovely face." "Huh?" "[Snickering]" "You too, darling." "[Mrs.chelnickchattering]" "(Ernie) Bye-bye." "Mrs. hollander, how are you?" "I was on the phone." "I couldn't say hello before." "I waved." "You didn't see." "How could I miss you, darling?" "Knock it off, Ernie." "I've got no time for romance." "You see the sign?" "Yeah." "I made your venison last year." "Nobody liked it." "It tasted strong and stringy." "I don't know, it's just not for us." "First time I brought a deer home, my wife bought a French cookbook." "She learned how to make noisette de venaison." "There you are." "The single most tender piece of meat you'll ever put in your mouth." "(Dave) Anything else today?" "Not now, Dave." "(Dave) That'll be, uh, $23.71." "Just charge it." "(Ernie) Let me help you, Mrs. hollander." "(Mrs. hollander) I can handle it." "Uh, the car's just outside." "(Ernie) Oh, yeah?" "What are you drivin' these days?" "Besides me crazy." "Oh, come on."

"You home?" "Hide in the closet." "I don't believe this." "Cut the shit, and get in the closet." "I'm not getting into the closet." "What are you, crazy?" "(Ernie) Anybody here?" "He's coming." "Hurry, under the bed." "I'll be... (Ernie) Hey, sunny." "...right out." "What are you doin' in the bedroom in the middle of the afternoon?" "I had a headache." "I was taking a nap."

"[Whispering] Go." "Go." "(Ernie) What?" "What?" "What'd you say?" "I said, I was talking to Dave, and Dave said that business was picking up." "What does that asshole know?" "Give me that towel." "The best thing he could do is die, and have the term insurance kick in." "I'd mourn him in Vegas." "How come you were talkin' to Dave?" "I called looking for you." "You weren't there." "You're never there anymore." "Where the hell do you spend your time?" "I got a lot of business investments." "I can't make a livin' from the store alone." "I'm trying to make a livin' for us." "But if you're always pressuring' me, asking' me where I am..." "Well, just forget it." "I don't want to talk about it." "(Sunny) Where are you going?" "None of your business."

"Thank you." "(Atlas) I assume you are prepared to go through with this then?" "I'm sure." "Then, Mrs. cannald, I want you to do something for me." "I want you to, immediately upon leaving here, go to the emergency room of the closest hospital, and get a complete set of x-rays." "What for?" "Nothing's broken." "He just banged me around a little." "Look, look, look, we want to show the judge that the beating was so bad that you had to go to the hospital." "Please, I mean, I know what I'm doing." "As far as, uh, visual evidence that will implicate your husband." "Well, don't worry about it." "That's my job, and I know how to do it." "What are you talking about?" "Pictures." "And they don't come easy." "Let me show you what I'm talking about." "[Ship horn tooting]" "Now I'm not gonna tell you who the parties involved are, and I don't want you to ask." "(Sunny) These are pictures of people screwing." "Yes." "Yes." "And the, uh, high technical quality made all the difference in court." "[Sighing]" "(Atlas) I like this one here." "Uh, one thing, Mrs. cannald." "And this is very, very important." "During this action, until you have the, uh, legal separation, the settlement from the house sale and the business, it would be a good idea for you not to be seen in the company of another man." "This is going to be a very lonely time for you." "However, uh, if I can ever help you out, just let me know." "Yeah, fine." "[Sighing]" "Look, how much is all this gonna cost me?" "[Sighing]" "Well, here's my fee structure." "I get $125 a day for every day that I'm on your case." "Plus equipment costs, which doesn't amount to much." "I'd say the average thing you could figure this thing coming to is about $900 or $1,000 tops." "And I will need a deposit." "And I want you to get the x-rays, Mrs. cannald, do you understand?" "Oh." "Uh, one little trick, Mrs. cannald." "Make the check out to "cash."" "That way, if your husband gets a hold of your checkbook, he won't know what you're doing." "Ok." "You know what I need." "Just get it." "[Clearing throat]" "Uh, one last thing, Mrs. cannald." "Um..." "What now?" "Uh, your husband's business partner, do you think that he'd be of any use to us as a friendly witness?" "Dave?" "I can get him to say anything." "What, do you mean there's something going on between the two of you?" "Please." "He's a bigger schmuck than my husband." "I see." "Um... (Atlas) Well, I..." "Uh..." "We'll just, uh, play it as it goes." "[Chuckles]" "Jeffrey!" "Jeffrey, have you been playin' with the washing machine?" "(Jeffrey) What?" "Is lew up there?" "Lew!" "Lew!" "[T.V. Chattering]" "He's not around." "Well, I think the sewer's broken." "The place is full of water." "What are you talking about?" "Where?" "Come here." "Here, look at this." "What's going on?" "What did you do here?" "I didn't do anything." "I was just doing the wash." "The floor's all cracked." "What'd you do?" "I didn't do nothin'!" "(Lew) What are you doing here?" "Go put some clothes on." "I'm doing the laundry." "Look at yourself." "Oh, come on, lew." "He's my brother." "I don't care." "Go put some clothes on." "You shouldn't have run the machine before the floor was dry." "The machine is over here." "It's wet over there." "You don't know how to work with cement." "You have to put down at least 6 inches." "You put, what, a half inch?" "There's nothing I can do about it now." "I gotta get to the store." "(Phyllis) You just came from the store." "I'll handle it." "I'll fix it for you tomorrow." "[Sighing]" "So, is it ok to run the washer now?" "I don't know." "Ask your husband, the big expert." "I've got to go." "What's the matter?" "Don't Ernie work anymore?" "Work?" "Are you kidding?" "Well, have him do the clean-up at night." "Do the damn inventory once in a while." "Yeah, Dave." "Take a night off." "Call up Lucille." "Take her to a movie." "Thanks, that's ok." "(Phyllis) Well, call up my girlfriend Barbara." "She likes you." "I can't stand her." "She never stops talking about astrology." "(Phyllis) No one is ever good enough for you." "That is interesting stuff." "How are you ever gonna meet anybody with this attitude of yours?" "I got no time to meet anybody." "[Engine starting]" "What is this shit with those cab drivers, they won't change more than $10?" "Dave, gimme." "You got $3?" "[Cash till ringing]" "[Bell dinging]" "[Sighing]" "How're you doin'?" "Are you kiddin'?" "I'm fuckin' dead." "Where were you?" "What are you, my father?" "I got to tell you where I was?" "(Ernie) I was doin' something' important." "What's so important?" "Getting laid." "That's what's so important." "If you say so." "Guess who it was." "Why, do I know her?" "Rothstein's nurse." "You mean the good-looking blonde?" "No, the ugly one." "I always go for the gorillas." "I thought she was married." "You could score with her, too." "But I know you." "You'll come on like a schmuck, and blow it." "Oh, yeah?" "How?" "You don't know, do you?" "(Ernie) You're uncoordinated." "You got no coordination." "Coordination?" "Think fast." "Go out." "What?" "Go out." "Go out." "[Chuckling]" "Oh!" "[Panting] Run it!" "[Ernie laughing]" "Touchdown!" "Yeah!" "Huh." "Now we kick to you." "[Dave grunting]" "My knee!" "[Grunting]" "First down." "Wait a second!" "Wait a second!" "You ready?" "Come on, asshole!" "Second down." "Wait a second." "Wait a second." "You still think I'm uncoordinated?" "I think you're an asshole!" "You always were, and you always will be!" "There's no way you could score with rothstein's nurse." "(Dave) Is that all you think about, getting laid?" "I don't think about it, jerk-off." "I do it." "How could you treat her like this?" "Who?" "Sunny!" "She's none of your fuckin' business!" "She married me, not you!" "So fuck off!" "Ernie?" "Dave!" "Ernie?" "[Ernie groaning]" "[Gasping]" "My God, what happened?" "Nothin'." "I'm fine." "I'm terrific." "Your boyfriend wanted to play a little football." "It got rough." "This should make you happy." "Dave doesn't approve of the way I treat you." "What are you talking about?" "(Ernie) You're screwing him, right?" "You're crazy." "Sure." "Just--just get the fuck out of here." "(Ernie) I'm tired of lookin' at you." "I'm tired too, Ernie." "Tired of always having to ask you for money." "[Laughing] You know what you look like in those wigs of yours?" "Bozo the hooker." "[Laughing]" "(Ernie) Dave deserves you." "No!" "Sunny!" "No!" "Open the door!" "Let me out of here!" "Sunny!" "Sunny." "Sunny." "Sunny." "Baby." "There you go." "Hey." "Hey." "Yeah." "No!" "No!" "Baby!" "Please!" "Please, sunny." "Sunny, open the door." "I'll give you anything." "Sunny!" "No!" "Sunny, please." "Please, sunny, baby." "Oh, please." "I'll do anything." "I'll give you anything!" "All right, sunny, come on." "It'll be... sunny!" "No!" "No!" "Don't leave!" "Don't!" "Sunny!" "[Crickets chirping]" "[Car door closing]" "Looks like I'm first." "Oh!" "Let me just put these away, Mrs. Colby." "I'll be right with you." "Ernie must have forgot to clean up." "(Mrs. geary) Hi, Norma." "How's the family?" "Fine." "And yours?" "Oh, it's November, so the kids naturally have to have colds." "Um, when you get a chance, would you give me some meat," "I could make stew with for about 5 people?" "Just, uh, give me a minute to open up here." "Uh, Dave, would you make that for 6 instead of 5?" "Ernie?" "Oh, my God." "(Mrs. geary) Ok, Dave?" "Ernie?" "I've killed him." "[Phone ringing]" "[Phone continues ringing]" "(Mrs. geary) Dave, the phone's ringing." "(Mrs. geary) Dave?" "Dave?" "(Mrs. geary) Dave?" "(Mrs. geary) Dave, did you know the phone is ringing?" "Dave, are you in there?" "Open the door." "Open the door." "[Phone continues ringing]" "The telephone." "Thank you." "Geary and cannald." "Hello?" "Dave?" "Hello, Dave." "It's sunny." "Is Ernie there?" "(Mrs. hollander) If you make it right, venison can be very tender." "(Mrs. Colby) What's venison?" "Hello, Dave." "Dave, it's sunny." "(Mrs. Colby) You sell deer?" "Hold on a second, please." "What is it?" "You sell deer?" "No!" "Right up the window." "Dave, Ernie told me to make sure I got my order." "Dave?" "(Mrs. hollander) Dave, is Ernie here?" "Uh, uh, I'm sorry." "Hold on." "I'm talking to Ernie's wife, Mrs. hollander." "Ernie told me she's got a wonderful recipe for venison." "And be sure to get my order in before he went hunting." "Dave, can you hear me?" "I said, Ernie didn't come home all night." "I think he's gone hunting." "What?" "It's hunting season." "You really think so?" "Uh-huh." "Probably." "Well, if he does come in tell him to give me a call, ok, Dave?" "(Sunny) Bye." "[T.V. Chattering]" "[Rumbling]" "[Doorbell ringing]" "Dave!" "What is it?" "Sunny..." "What?" "There's something I have to tell you." "Come in." "What is it?" "Oh, God." "I'm so sorry." "(Sunny) What?" "Oh, God." "It's Ernie." "Look at me." "It's Ernie, isn't it?" "It was an accident." "He's been hurt?" "No." "I hope you can forgive me." "I killed him." "[Sighing]" "I got mad at him for how he's been cheating on you." "I hit him." "I didn't mean to kill him." "It was an accident." "The freezer door must've closed on him." "It's faulty." "Oh!" "Oh!" "(Dave) I wanted to tell you before I went to the police." "[Crying]" "I'm going to be sick." "[Dave retching]" "[Doorbell ringing]" "Mrs. cannald," "I have been trying to reach you all afternoon." "What the hell are you doing here?" "Listen, I--I know he's home." "Who?" "Your husband." "Ulook, I-is there a place we can talk?" "This is incredibly important." "Ok." "Come in." "Over here." "Right down here." "To the left." "You won't believe what I've got." "(Sunny) Oh." "What is it?" "Now prepare yourself for a shock." "Uh, who is this?" "Mrs. cannald, you're looking at the girlfriend." "Here she is talking to your husband." "Mrs. cannald, he is using the place as his love nest." "No." "(Atlas) Once she left, I followed her." "Unfortunately, I got stuck behind a trailer truck, and lost her." "But the important thing is, we know where they're meeting, and we know what they're doing there." "And it's only a matter of time before I have the photographs that'll prove it." "May I have these?" "Sunny!" "He might find them." "(Dave) Sunny!" "I'll be right there, darling!" "(Atlas) Ok, I-I'll be in touch." "We've got gold here, Mrs. cannald." "Gold." "[Door closing]" "Dave." "You must hate me." "Hate you?" "Oh!" "Dave, you blind fool." "I love you." "You do?" "I've always loved you." "You have?" "You always turned me on more than Ernie did." "There was just something about him." "I--I..." "I guess I just made the wrong choice, that's all." "No, I shouldn't have said that." "It must be the shock." "Look at you." "You're shaking like a leaf." "[Crickets chirping]" "Oh, this isn't right." "I'm sorry." "I couldn't hold myself back any longer." "Just hold me." "Oh!" "(Sunny) Oh!" "He's gone, Dave." "And there's nothing that we can do to bring him back." "Oh, sunny, I love you." "Oh." "Oh, Dave." "Oh, sunny." "Sunny, you forgive me?" "I do." "Of course I do." "I only hope that the police believe it was just an accident." "Well, why wouldn't they?" "Oh, they have to." "It was." "It's the truth." "The truth is you love me." "And Ernie knew it." "But I'd never hurt him!" "The police might think you had cause." "You did hit him." "You hit him because of me." "You can't confess." "Oh!" "Where is he now?" "In the store." "In the walk-in." "Everyone thinks he's gone hunting." "You're going to have to get rid of him." "How?" "(Woman #1) Is that Ernie?" "(Woman #2) No, that's Dave." "Ernie's gone hunting." "It's Mrs. cannald?" "That's right." "Is Mr. atlas here?" "(Receptionist) Oh, you just missed him." "Oh, darn." "Oh, he won't be long." "Well, I was supposed to pick up those photographs, and now I'm in a hurry." "So..." "Oh, there they are." "He didn't say anything about any photographs." "Well, I--I--I told him that I was coming to pick them up." "Well, I'm sorry, but I can't give you anything without express permission from Mr. atlas." "See, technically, they are my pictures." "I am paying for them." "So, if you'll hand them over, I'll take responsibility." "Oh, I'm sorry." "You'll just have to wait for Mr. atlas." "Just get out of my way, you fat bitch!" "No!" "You're not gettin' the pictures." "(Receptionist) Shecalledme afat bitch." "She wanted the photographs?" "Well, she said you said to come and get them, but you never said anything to me about photographs." "She's crazy." "I never told her to come and get the pictures." "I said:" ""Without proper authorization from Mr. atlas, nothing leaves this office."" "And this woman was Mrs. cannald?" "That's what she told me." "Is that her?" "I think so." "I'll be damned." "What?" "Do you know who was up here trying to get these?" "Who?" "It wasn't Mrs. cannald." "It was her." "The other woman." "Oh." "Son of a bitch." "When I was over there the other night, he must've heard me and then got the girlfriend to come for the pictures pretending she was the wife." "Oh, this cannald guy-- this cannald guy's good." "Yeah." "We're up against a master, Arlene." "[Bell dinging]" "Have you done it yet?" "Not yet." "Dave." "(Woman) You didn't give me my chicken." "I've got customers." "I'll get that!" "[Freezer door opening]" "Where is he?" "[Sunny sighing]" "He always loved chocolate." "[Sighing]" "Do it soon." "I'll do it tonight, I swear." "Please, God." "No." "Please." "No." "[Panting]" "[Knocking on door]" "Open the door." "The store is closed." "Open up." "I'm a detective." "Let me in." "What do you want?" "I represent Mrs. Ernest cannald." "Sunny?" "[Machinery creaking]" "Where is he?" "Who?" "Who do you think, geary?" "The husband." "Your partner." "Ernie." "He's, uh, he's gone hunting." "Hunting?" "Hunting beaver, from what I hear." "Yeah." "What's that?" "It's an ice cream bar." "Y-you want a bite?" "I don't eat that stuff." "It's delicious." "Mmm, golly, that's good." "[Sighing]" "Let's get something straight, geary." "Wherever he is, I'm gonna find him, with or without your help." "I don't know what else to tell you." "Well, if you can think of something..." "This is my card." "Call me." "Night or day." "[Engine starting]" "[Tires screeching]" "[Knocking on door]" "Why didn't you tell me you wanted to divorce Ernie?" "Dave, take it easy." "You hired a detective." "Mr. atlas?" "He almost caught me." "He came barging right into the store." "Ernie's still there?" "Yeah." "Oh, Jesus." "I thought" "I won't do it, sunny." "I won't cut up Ernie." "You promised." "I can't." "Fine, don't." "Leave him there." "Why don't you go confess, if that's what you want to do?" "Oh, I don't know what to do." "[Sighing]" "Well, we've gotta do something." "People are gonna be expecting him back." "From where?" "From his hunting trip." "[Sighing]" "Why didn't he just go hunting?" "He did." "What?" "Listen to this." "This is perfect." "Take him up into the mountains, and dump him." "Dump him?" "Dave, in the woods." "It's hunting season." "If anybody finds him, they'll think he froze to death." "It's foolproof." "It'll work." "A-a-and you should go to bars, and spread his name around, you know." "Like he's up there." "What's this?" "Ernie's hunting clothes." "Oh, shit." "Son of a bitch." "It's working." "Oh!" "[Phone ringing]" "Ernie, phone." "[Grunting]" "Hello?" "Mrs. cannald." "Lester atlas here." "And I've got some great news." "(Sunny) Whatdoyoumean?" "What--whatnews?"

"We have to drive it into the city, and dump it." "Near his office, by the docks." "Of course." "Lester's car can't be found here." "Right." "And Ernie's car?" "Uh, we should leave it here?" "Yeah." "That's right." "That, too." "What is this stuff?" "(Dave) I don't know." "It's like cement." "Go back." "Go." "Now go." "Go." "[Tires screeching]" "There." "Right there." "Right down the middle." "Sunny." "Here." "[Grunting]" "(Dave) We're gonna make it." "[Sunny yelling]" "[Electricity surging]" "[Carradio] ¶dancer!" "¶" "¶dancer!" "¶" "¶dancer!" "¶" "¶dancer!" "¶" "¶[singeryellingon radio]" "(Dave) Go tell the police that Ernie should have come back by now and that you've asked me to go look for him." "(Sunny) I'd better walk from here." "We shouldn't be seen together until after Ernie's found." "I'm gonna miss you." "It's gonna be all right." "I know it is." "No news?" "No." "You do think he'll come back?" "God, I hope so." "[Phone ringing]" "Hello?" "(Sunny) Thepolicejustcalled." "Theyfoundhim." "[Door opening]" "She's eager to sell." "They were very close." "But think about it." "May I use the phone?" "Help yourself." "Are they interested?" "Very." "Marge, I'm at the cannald house." "We're gonna need a plumber here." "There's some kind of sewer backup." "I-it has to be taken care of right away." "Don't worry." "They didn't spot it." "Good." "Is it bad?" "It's some kind of sewage block in the basement." "The floor's buckling." "Buckling?" "What do you mean?" "It's nothing to worry about." "I thought I noticed a strange smell." "Could that be it?" "Must be." "Are you gonna sell out?" "Where did you hear that?" "It's a rumor." "A customer asked." "Don't worry." "It's never gonna happen." "Hi." "I'm almost finished." "Uh, Frankie, you can leave." "I'll close up." "Hey, I'll see you Monday, then." "Yeah, have a nice weekend." "You look terrific." "Dave." "I'll be right with you." "(Sunny) Will you stand still for one second, and listen to me?" "I'm listening." "The $600,000 offer is real." "I know." "You told me." "So, you'll talk to them?" "There's nothing to talk about, sunny." "I'm not selling." "[Plates clattering]" "How long would it have taken?" "What?" "For Ernie to die." "4 or 5 hours." "Do you think he suffered?" "At first, yeah." "(Dave) So, say we could get $500,000." "$600,000." "Then what?" "Don't fool around with that." "We travel, spend, have fun, see the world." "Then we're on our ass." "But not me." "You have to think of the future." "I am." "[Door closing]" "[Doorbell ringing]" "Good morning, ma'am." "We're the plumbers." "Oh, yes." "Uh, in the cellar." "Down here?" "Uh-huh, yes." "Holy Christ, what happened here?" "Gophers." "Gophers don't do this." "Hand me that shovel over there."

"You said-- uh, listen, can I call you back?" "Thanks." "Bastard." "If you think you're gonna blame this on me, forget it." "Excuse me, ma'am." "We got a report we need to check out." "May we come in?" "Excuse me." "It's probably nothing to get excited about." "We have to check, though." "(Cop #1) Oh, God." "[Gasping]" "Get her up." "Come on." "Get up." "It was Dave." "He did it." "He killed them both." "Did your partner go on these hunting trips every year?" "For the last few years, yeah." "[Machine whirring]" "On these trips, was he in the habit of camping out?" "I know he had a tent." "You two were in the army together?" "Yeah." "Uh, we were butchers." "How many rifles did he own?" "I, uh" "I really don't know." "Were you and Mrs. cannald close?" "I've known her since high school." "[Lock rattling]" "It's really cold in there." "All that meat." "[Chuckling]" "You know what she says?" "She says you put the detective in her basement." "I know." "He would never have been found, if she'd known how to work with cement." "She put, what..." "Half." "Half an inch?" "You gotta put at least-- 6." "There you go." "At least 6 inches." "Atlas must've figured it out." "That's why she killed him, too." "Too?" "I don't understand." "Well, it'll all come out at the trial." "You know you're gonna have to testify?" "Just let us know if you're gonna be out of town, ok?" "Where would I go?" "I got a business to run here." "[Bell dinging]" "Uh, could I, uh, could I ask you both something?" "I hope you don't mind." "Sure." "Go ahead." "I'm getting some prime fillets tomorrow morning." "Is there any chance you could get into trouble," "I-if I gave a couple to you?" "(Detective) Nah." "(Roberts) Nah." "That's not a problem." "Drop by any time tomorrow." "(Detective) So, what do you think?" "I like him."
