"I got to talk to the police." "Don't worry, I won't tell them about all this shit." "I just saw him leave Audrey's apartment." "Who, Soll?" "[Music plays]" "I'm sorry, David." "[Elevator dings]" "Audrey!" "Audrey." "[Music plays]" "Audrey." "[Elevator dings]" " Where you been?" " [Gasps]" "Where's Audrey?" "Who's Audrey?" "Don't fucking bullshit me!" "You was just in her apartment." "I don't know what you're talking about, Lamont." "But you got a hell of a serious problem." "Yeah" " Yeah, I've had a problem since the moment I met you." "This kid, Thurber" " Hawkins." "He's dead." "Yeah, no shit." "Murder weapon was left at the scene." "Guess what?" "It looked exactly like...this." "We dusted it for prints." "We got a hit." "Who?" "You." "You know I-- Yeah, I had it in my hand" "You little pussy." "If I didn't know you a little bit... didn't know that you were a narcissistic pretty boy..." "Fuck you." "who'd sooner call a cop from halfway across the city than do his own dirty work," "I would haul your ass in to the precinct right now with an airtight case." "But that's not what my instincts are telling me." "What are your instincts telling you, detective?" "Whoever killed that boy wouldn't have done it unless he didn't need him anymore." "Hey, hey, I mean" "Relax." "Now, he's coming for you." "[Clicks]" "You better lock up." "Take the second floor." "[Music plays]" "[Phone ringing]" "[Phone beeps]" "Not now, Rebecca." "I'm with Detective Soll." "Rebecca [Over phone]:" "That's what I'm calling about." "He's not who you think he is." "What are you talking about?" "When you said his name, I knew I heard it before." " In what?" "Andrew Dunlap's novel, the one you rejected, the killer's name in it is Soll." "Detective Soll." "Soll:" "Downstairs is secure." "David?" "I checked with the police department, there is no Detective Soll." "Get out of there, David!" "Um, okay, Bec, uh" "We'll just go over that in the morning." "So... is everything cool up here?" "Good." "Dunlap." "[Music plays]" "David:" "[Yelling]" "[Grunts]" "Soll:" "Hey, Lamont." "Seems like we got off on the wrong foot." "Sure feels that way." "[Groans]" "[Music plays]" "[Panting]" "Soll:" "David!" "[Music plays]" "Soll:" "Calm down." "Everything's gonna be fine." "I'm a police officer, remember?" "[Grunting]" "Soll:" "Aw!" "Fuck!" "David:" "Get out!" "Soll:" "Lamont!" "Goddamn it." "Soll:" "Nobody was supposed to get hurt." "David." "It was all an act." "Lamont!" "David:" "[Gasps]" "[Panting]" "This gun... is a fake." "David:" "[Yelling]" "[Thud]" "David:" "[Coughs]" "[Groans]" "[Grunts]" "[Door opens]" "David:" "[Grunts]" "Soll:" "David!" "[Grunts]" "No, it was all an act!" "[Bone snaps]" "David:" "[Grunts]" "[Coughs, groans]" "[Elevator dings]" "Oh, God." "Oh, God." "Oh, God." "Oh, my God." "[Panting]" "We should call the police." "Rebecca:" "And say what?" "That there are two dead bodies in my house, Rebecca." "Um..." "Maybe you should..." "Maybe you should call your lawyer first." "Yeah, that's a good idea." "He should be here when they get here." " I can't do that." " Why not?" "This all points to me." "This all points to me." "The bodies." "It's a neighbor that I had an affair with." "And it's a-a writer." "A guy that-- That I invited in." "But he was terrorizing you, David." "But I have no proof." "My phone records are gonna show that we called each other." "He sent me a thank-you note to my fucking party, for chrissake." "What about all of the things that he gave you?" "You said that he gave you photographs and tapes" "But every time I thought I was talking to the police," "I was talking to him." "I gave it all back." "He killed Audrey." "He killed Audrey, and they're gonna be able to prove that, you know?" "They're going to be able to find his fingerprints or his hair or something" " Oh, my God." " What?" "What?" "My skin's under her fingernails." " Why would your skin be" " We had a fight." "Oh, my God." "Oh, hey, Rebecca." "I did not kill Audrey." "I swear to God." "I did not kill her." "I'm fucked." "Oh, boy..." "Okay..." "I know this is gonna seem really weird, but my parents have a farm two hours upstate, and they're out of town." "So?" "There are ways to get rid of this, David." "Wha--?" "[Music plays]" "One, two, three." "Pigs are omnivores." "Excuse me?" "[Music plays]" "[Sniffs]" "[Sniffs]" "[Sniffing]" "[Panting]" "[Yelling]" "[Pigs squealing]" "[Gagging]" "Are you okay?" "David?" "David?" "Okay, come on." "Come on." "Come on, let's go inside." "[Water running]" "[Sobbing]" "[Door opens, closes]" "David?" "David, I brought you some clothes that I found in my" "In my father's closet that I thought might fit you." "[Music plays]" "[Horn honks]" "It's nice to get out of the city." "[Laughs]" "Listen." "Um..." "I think that... we just go in tomorrow like nothing happened." "And... like everything is like it was." "Bye, David." "Everything will be fine." "Yeah." "[Car door opens]" "[Car door closes]" "[Music plays]" "[Answering machine beeps]" "David:" "Hey, G, it's, uh" " It's pretty early, man." "I, uh" " I was just calling to see how you were doing." "I, um" " Oh, I thought maybe later we could, uh" "We could grab some lunch." "Anyway, all right, Garret, give me a call." "Bye." "[Phone beeps]" "[Music plays]" "Rebecca [Narrating]:" "The apartment was not so much an apartment, as a monument to a good life and a better fortune." "The owner was a man of stature, handsome, with an articulate wit." "A bull among calves." "An arrogant, ego-driven, misogynist bull that she would carefully lead to the slaughter." "It could have all been so easily avoided." "If he had only taken a moment, one moment, he would've seen the blueprint for his demise." "Rebecca:" "David?" "You didn't maybe, possibly have a chance to look at the story I gave you, did you?" "David:" "Aw, shit." "But I am gonna burn through a stack of reading as soon as I get home." "Rebecca [Narrating]:" "But she knew he wouldn't bother." "Of course not." "A man who basked in the reflected glow of those with real talent, getting rich off the blood and sweat and torment of those he represented." "Surely he'd never take the time to read a story from an unknown writer." "David?" "I have Andrew Dunlap for you." "She chose a name at random and stamped it at the bottom of a title page." "Why on earth would you put me on the phone with him?" "The actors weren't hard to find in a city full of starving artists." "Hi." "Hard to believe what they would do to show the extent of their talent." "Soll?" "I'm coming to your place as soon as I'm done here." "Poor bastards had no idea what they were getting themselves into." "Hey" " Hey, Ellsworth, how are you?" "The irony of it was that it was all his idea really." "She did exactly as he suggested." "[Woman laughing]" "David:" "Call somebody at The New Yorker." "I got some renewal thing." "Rebecca:" "He's a writer." "The one that you told to write a story about himself writing a story." "Rebecca [Narrating]:" "And that's exactly what she did." "She wrote a story about herself writing a story." "All that was left was to follow his own words." "The advice she'd hear him scream countless times." "Make." "Me." " Make me care." " Care." "Man:" "Find what you need, sweetheart?" "Oh, yes, thank you." "Renting a place across the street made it easy." "She learned his every move." " Predicted his every thought." " [Phone ringing]" "[Techno music playing over stereo]" "Rebecca:" "David?" "Oh, my God!" "I can't hear you." "I'm in a club." "She knew there would be victims." "Victims he could have easily saved." "Victims of his own arrogance." "And then... with a stranger's hand, she pushed him... right onto the killing floor." "She would become his number one client." "She'd call the shots from her cabin in Maine in her fucking bathrobe." "What happened next was his choice." "But live or die, they'd go together."
