"Like that, ever" "I know you are the thumbprint killer you have done this before" "what I want?" "It's for you, to take me with you next time you kills someone and I'd like that to be soon" "And you were worried this was going to be unpleasant?" "The answer is simple" "Just tell Mr. Smith that you have decided never to kill again and you're going away you enjoy watching me suffer, don't you?" "In a word, yes where do you think he has the other pictures?" "He put it in a safety deposit box but I bet the box is in the banks where he keeps his checking account" "and the key... it's on his key chain" "he really wants us to do this he is not going to the cops" "we have a deal?" "For the angle of these pictures... you live at the 3rd floor at apartment building across the alley, front of the couple house" "uh yes or no, Mr. Smith?" "Yes what time did you get home from work?" "6.30 7, depending of the traffic" "you can't never come here again you can't never call me do you understand that?" "Yes" "tomorrow night not tonight, tomorrow night at 8 o'clock leave your apartment building and walk east" "I will pick you up there" "if you are thinking about doing anything... for both to aware the rules, Mr. Smith" "but I feel I must warn you if it turns out that you enjoy killing" "you can become very addicted it can ruins your life" "I wanna do this" "have I covered everything?" "I can't think of anything else then I'll see you tomorrow night Mr. Smith" "we've talked to our client and in common we put here what we figure out, we feel this is more than fair we can have a check for that amount in your office by 6pm o'clock oh, we told you at the beginning what we wanted" "and it hasn't changed we feel our offer is more than generous" "I paid for everything, when we were together and now I'm been asked to give this guy a bonus?" "For spending time with me, time that I've already paid for in the first place?" "You know as well as I do, counselor, you're not gonna get a million five" "Oh, I - don't - know that, no, I... well, infact, this is the front page of yesterday's paper" ""Hangman escapes"" "after torturing his victims" "Thorton Meeks well, hide him in public places, church steeple, balconies, freeways over passes... where this is going?" "Well, your client captures Mr. Meeks" "Come on Tracy, this is not a lot of money for you and we both know how afraid that I was after Meeks says that he was gonna escape and come back to kill you let me ask again what is your point?" "Our point is that Meeks, or someone like Meeks make hurt after my client in order to hurt your client that is very imaginative, counsellor but it's not based in reality at all" "Jesse let's just handle this, please" " Tracy" " Jesse you know what will make me feel really safe right now?" "If you got hit by a truck... and die" "well, that's it?" "Mr. Vialo and I, are leaving you are threatening the safety of my client, we are going after to get a straight order we see in court" "you hit by a truck and die?" "Fuck it, I felt good what was here it's not here, that's interesting" "I hate the number, I'll say that this people been killed by a ghost the autopsy said there was a little tiny piece of plastic in the female victim's brain it's a dead end, the bag with the gun, he puts one gallon plastic foresinc bag over his hand to his wrist" "little bit of plastic comes out, when the first one is gonna shots, it goes in the bag are you looking for me?" "I've received the subpena from your husband for your works records where you worked, date and time, for the past two years he just tries to blackmail me, do you remember?" "My lawyers assure me that I'll never go to court" "I can't take that chance almost three courts of your cases is a current so, until you'll set your divorce i'm gonna have to put you on the desk that's also blackmail do you have any idea what this guy has done to me?" "While we're married, while i was paying for everything he was just out and fuck every woman he can gets his hands on he fucked my friends, he fucked my cousin he made me look as an idiot" " and?" " And what?" "Get over it!" "You can't roll there's a woman wanna have this one blousy man in your life well, I made him an offer and I won't goin to give him a dime more did you hear that Meeks escaped?" "Yeah you get gonna looking for him, you want me yo put a detail on you?" "I think I can take care of myself it's one of your biggest problem, Tracy you don't know how to ask for help" "what the fuck, what the fuck, what... don't worry, if I were here to kill you, you were already be dead" "After you left today, I realize that our friendship was a little one side of it so, tomorrow night when we meet, would you be so kind us to bring all the pictures and the memory card from your camera" "that way we can like each other simply for who we are if you don't show up" "I will presume that you have gone to the police and I will kill you even if I'll go to jail because of you Mr Smith, someone will find you, wherever you are... and they will kill you" "Mr. Brooks" "Mr. Brooks" "Mr. Brooks" "WoW" "WoW" "it's nice to have you home" "hello, hello." "You have to explain this to me 'cause i'm your mother, that's why!" "What's wrong, girls?" "I asked your daughter what's the real reason she dropped out the school" "I told you, it's not the real reason honey... you wanted to go to college you have good grades, your father put in favours to get you in that school if this is not the reason... please, Dear God, tell me the reason" "what is your mother thinking even dropped you out the school?"

"Even if I'm not married?" "Yes a child is what's important we would... we would love him and cheer him completely and we would... we would help you raise him" "if it means that much to you, I will think about it" "I'm gonna have to start getting up little earlier, uh, honey?"

"I know so and so do you" "it's darker tonight than it was on your night but still... how did you managed to not bumping into the furniture?" "Was the light on?" "Or did you turn it on?" "Because I know you and you won't risk a shot in the dark" "where have you been?" "Did you miss the thrill of killing?" "What if these are stayed closed because you yanked them closed" "which would mean... they were open when you came into the room" "thank you, I appreciate your time" "ops, sorry, i'm sorry no, I'm sorry" "I was just about to knock" "I'm detective Atwood, portland police hey, do you wanna see me?" "Fine you are a photographer Mr..." "...Bafford?" " No" " No?" "Thank you no, uh, actually it's... a hobby i just started" "well, do you know, there was a murder?"

"He looks clean looks like he's alone no, i tell you, he really wants to do that" "maybe I should plow with him... pick him up no, just honk maybe he get killed crossing the street and save us the mess he's doing up" "Almost" "it's coming down hard they said would be sunny tomorrow" "I never trust those guys they say it's gonna be clear, then rains and they say it's gonna rains and it's... sunny" "I believe this is what you asked for the pictures in the memory card... all here" "both you and I both know that not all the pictures are in here and you made a copy of the memory card, as an asshole" "but, you understand my position?" "Yes, I do but it's my hope you want to get to know me better you feel confortable in giving me everything that I've asked you for" "sounds fair maybe you'll be interested in this" "this is the police woman, who is looking for you wow, we never know anyone was looking for us before" "you have to find everything there is to know about this... woman" "this is close, Marshall this is to damn close" "so... what's the plan?" "Where do we, uh, what are we doing here tonight?" "We'll drive around until we see someone we think we might enjoy killing" "really?" "You don't have have somebody... in mind" "I don't enjoy this Mr. Smith, I do it because I am addicted to it" "before you're in in my life I had that I would never kill again so, this is... your part you can choose anyone you want and we will do it together" "can i pick somebody that I know?" "No you'll never kill someone you know" "it's the easiest way to get caught" " ok?" " Yeah" "locked up?" "You look a little bit like that..." "E.T. Guy remember that movie?" "When he flies on that bike?" " Yeah, yeah - yeah" "I like that movie" "Jesus Christ" "fuck him this is fault, he is an asshole" "fuck you" "maybe Mr Smith would like to kill the driver of the pick up" "what about the driver of the pick up?" "What if we kill him?" "Yes yes, I always wanted to fucking kill somebody fucking to be in traffic" "well, if you want to kill the driver of pick up" "I'll give you the honor" "ehy, maybe not be the same" "driver ok well, driver I am, to will give a good looking at him or her any problem to kill a woman?" "No, no." "An asshole is an asshole" "I wasn't in town that night my roommate was, maybe he saw something" "Uh, may I speak to him?" "He is in on his way to Tokyo right now, he is also a flight attendant did the victims ever leave their bedroom curtains open?" "All the time" "I don't know if we can see them doing it and that's why you are asking but they didn't care well, here is my card if you can have your roommate call me and people of this number know how to reach me at everytime, day and night" "I won't be here, but I will leave him a note ok great, thank you sure" "would recognize him if you saw his driving licence picture?" "Yeah" "I'll memorize the licence number, you write it down" "I got it wow" "well, when you get home, go on the Internet find everything you can..." "about this guy we are gonna kill him tonight?" "No we could, but then we won't be under control we can leave lose ends but we both know the danger of that" "ok, I will do" "what are... we... doing?" "What are you doing?" "Look at me!" " Look at me!" " Why?" " Close your eyes - why?" "Close what's the licence plate number?" "Shit" "P4... no" "2, uh" "I know I tore, then because of the tree?" "Don't feel bad" "I've been doing this a long time." "Pen and paper look out the window and write it down how is your first time like?" "You really don't wanna know that much about me, Mr. Smith" "no, I don't think it was right, go back ok, we are in for all the taxes we pay you think they'll make it more difficult to hack into the police personnel file" "the father is John Atwood, why... why does that ring a bell?" "Somebody you got business with?" "Someone we... killed no, no somebody we killed let me see here, MBA and married, she has been a cop for 12 years married Dr. Carlson divorced Dr. Carlson married at Jesse Vialo and so two are separated, from Jesse Vialo sue" "...for support by Jesse Vialo seems uhm, seem a shrimp because of Jesse Vialo who, who, who she has caught a lot of people and look here, this is not her first time she has been looking for us" "ok, here we are" "Jesse Vialo, good looking, a little younger than she is younger, rest of all to her she married him in a rebound from the doctor and the boy has married her for money and connections just because the old men that doesn't mean she is rich" "maybe is one of the kind of guys ready to give her to the oprah and than to his kids" "what does she have to declare?" "Any outside and coming holdings?" "Oh, you are a... you are a genius" "the oprah didn't get much" "why would a woman, worth 60 plus million dollars... and probably more to come... wanna be a cop?" "I like that about her you are a such a fucking snob, Earl you like her because she is rich no, i like her because she founds something that's hers, is not the family business, and she is good at it" "I'd like Jane to find something it's... hers and than she can be good at it" "That's exactly why I would scare the shit out of me she's a cop who doesn't need the money... and she is looking for us." "That's one fucking dangerous human being the fact you are not wrong just not making me me admire her any less hey Nancy!" "Hi Tracy, thank you for meeting me here" "I got your latte you wanna be walk and talk while I hear your big idea?" "Oh, sure you really wanna settle this?" "If I can" "I'd like to use your father no my father does nothing for nothing" "Tracy, I understand but your father has a lot of political massed his poll won't make everything go away but it would be a tremendous help absolutely not you're right we could have done this one on the phone" "if you will wanna play the game right on the desk for a year" " i'm sure we can settle it at 1,25 - 1,5..." " uff, I..." "I'm not sit on a desk an the only other option is your father or money" "1,5 and that's it ok" "I'll call them today" "I just need to get this done as soon as possible that's what Jesse is counting on" "I'll call you when I have something oh, Tracy" "your husband said there's a picture of him holding some trophy, that you still have?" "What picture?" "He has everything he claims it's his favourite picture and you put it up when you store your suitcases" "I'll look" "I Know?" "Petty, you are going to divorce thanks for the latte" "I told you I was coming back to get you how do you find the place where i'm gonna hang you?"

"Somebody didn't do their homework last night" ""time saw years willing"" "let me get it, the engine gear yeah!" "Where do we know that guy from?" "You really sure I pay more attention that what you really, Earl?" "That's what I have you for, Marshall" "His picture was on the frontpage of the papers a couple of days ago because he escapes from jail he is the killer they call "The Hangman"" "you remember that cop?" "Who you like?" "Atwood?" "Who is chasing us?" "She is the one put him away wow, wow what would life be... without surprises!" "There it is!" "There it is!" "Ah, ah i'm in hot wild this guy has been get also his plans for tonight and tomorrow night" "he has not idea, he'll already be dead he will not be able to do anything" "I don't think I wanna kill this guy what?" "Oh, ahi... what - you - are - thinking?" "You have no idea of what I'm thinking yes I do and it's wondefully twisted" "wait a minute, are you..." "uh... you promised?" "I know I said we would but I don't think would be that much fun so, that is?" "Just no" "Yes" " uh, oh - so... you got the licence plate?" "Yeah they found the Van in an underground parking lot about two miles from where they left you they stolen it last night we are checking security camera tapes if Meeks and the woman are left in a car we'll have her licence plate number" "these other women we have pictures over on Meeks no one of the attendents remember seeing them" "what about that crackhead of Alvin Griffit." "The one have sold Meeks steroids?" "We have tap on his phone even since Meeks escaped no contacts there so far and sure he is not gonna talk to us what about a warrant to search the house?" "You'll get me in the door and he'll talk to me how is your divorce going?" "I took your advice, I told my lawyer to settle none of this is the woman in the van" "Whoa, I'm trying to suture up here and your ego can handle that?" "Not but he dosn't likes the other choices because the FBI is wiring hard on me to take over the tumbprint killer" "until Meeks is caught, Hawkins is with you nothing personal Hawkins but i don't think you'll take a bullet for me" "If I won't take the bullet, I might push you out the way" "I'll give two days and I want a progress report of your divorce ok, I have all the pieces for the tumbprint killer" "I'm just not looking at the right way" "I'll keep the FBI out of it for three days shh, that is ugly" "Mr. Smith wants you to notice that he's pounding yes, i know" "I know you are upset Mr. Smith and I am sorry." "Yeah." "I'm upset" "maybe I was a little brute back, but let me explain finding someone you think will be fine to kill, it's a bit like it's a bit like fallen in love, if you mean love you can addict, you like some of them and they're nice" "But they are not right and the special one comes alone and your heart... it beats faster" "And you know... that's the one." "The man in the pick up not make my heart beat faster" "Ok the man did't make your heart beat faster." "Then Who?" "I don't know but i think I think I have someone in mind." "Do you want me to do some work on it?" "No, let's just... let's just see how it plays out" "that's what I'm talking about, that's my problem." "That... that makes me feel like i'm been joked around was supposed to be last nigth, it's not gonna be tonight and now it's, let's see how it plays out?" "I feel like you're..." "I feel like you are begging out our deal" " I don't like how that feels - i promise you" "I promise you it will happen." "When?" "When it is going to happen?" "Mr. Brooks, When?" "Tomorrow night... same time." "When you come out from your building, I want you to turn right... go to the first street that you can go western." "I will pick you up... on that street." "Ok" "I wanna do make this, but it can't end to drags out, I can change my mind." "Don't you think I wanna do this Mr. Smith?" "Maybe wrong tempted you have to..." "Anymore!" "Even if that guy was charming and funny i'll still not like him" "Hi" "What can I do for you?" "Detective Smolny, Portland Police Department" "This is Detective Carfagno, she is in Palo Alto, California." "Emma." "!" "Emma!" "Did Jane ever told you that there were a murderer at her school?" "No." "Nothing?" "Not that her friend died or..." "somebody she knew died?" "Or some..." "Somebody in her dorm died?" "No, why?" "But there are two Detectives downstairs, one of them is from Palo Alto" "They wanna ask her some questions about a murder that occurred there shortly before she came home oh..." "My Gosh," "Well, I'm sure if she was called to something was murdered she would have said something." "Yeah" "I called Roger, he suggest to the criminal attorney." "He will be here within a hour." "Yeah, I'll get dress." " This is to close." " I know." "Jane, how well did you know Brandon?" "He and I, we were in a couple of classes together... that's about it" " Did you ever drive him to class?" " No." "Did you ever been in his apartment in or where he lives?" "Uh, which complex within..." "Have you a BMW, Jane?" "Uh, he was actually stolen..." "Well that was interesting." "You know, I don't feel so well" "I think you should lie down, ok?" "I think she should lie down" "Dad, I'm sorry I didn't say anything before" "It was really horrible but I don't know the guy that well and... it happens during the same time I found out I was pregnant, so... just can I..." "I understand." "Now tell me, what do I do?" "She did it." "Didn't she?" "Yeah it'll take the cops a week to ten days to put the case together and and then they will come back and arrest her." "What are you going to do?" "Oh God!" "Oh God!" "Why don't you free this before she was born." "She has... she has what I have" "yes, she does." "But you're always smarter than her, she was stupid" "She did it because she got offered, ok, I understand" "She did it for fun, ok, I understand but why didn't she think it through that hatchet and she left it there?" "You are pretty graphical today that's the shock of a making a mistake" "What does she think I think if she remembers what she told me that the BMW was been driven across the country by her friend and now rigth..." "...she tells the cops that it was stolen you"ll always clean that bathrom, whatever she did, all her life." "It's the BMW." "As anything incriminating I hope it was stolen and she dropped the body on the very d-blake you think she knows on this trouble she's in" "I think... i think she thought she got noway within, untill the cops showed up" "I should've listen to her, she was trying to tell me, You was there" "I didn't quit school because I was pregnant" "I should dog deeper." "And where would you be, been in exactly the same place that you are now." "It's not your fault, Earl." "Part of your problem with her is that you always think it is" "She has what I have, Marshall, so in a very basic level it is my fault" "What are you going to do?" "Maybe the best thing for her will be to let her go to jail" " what about her child?" " Emma and I will help her to erase it." "You might be right Earl, you know?" "Just might be" "Because if she's not stop she is going to kill again and If she really wants to take over that box business the next good victim could be... you" "I..." "I don't think she goes that far." "Hey" "We've receive the counter offer are you sitting down?" "Yeah, go ahead 5 million dollars." "My God, you gotta be kidding me" "He can't get that, kenny?" "No, no, no, my sense of it say that by asking for 5 they hope you settle anywhere between 2,5 and 3 shit" "Can you stall them?" "Boh, they know you want this done quickly so they're gonna expect a quick counter offer" "Ok, I need two days, just wait 2 days, tell them... that it's a big number and I have to think about it." "OK." "Oh, and, uh, that picture that he wanted" "Tell him I couldn't find it." "Yes, Mr. Brooks" "Mr. Brooks before you open your mouth... be very sure this is the right... thing to do" "I will never be sure." "You get pissed of me because I'm always the one argue to go ahead and do murder." "But not this time, Earl." "This is your decision." "I know what's wrong, I know in my heart it's wrong." "Then don't do it." "Go with Mr. Smith and will finish that and when the police will put Jane in jail, hope that will save her." "And we can happily go on with our tortured lifes" "That's exactly what I wanna do" "That's exactly what I should do the thing is she is my daughter." "And I love her." "Mr. Brooks" "I'm going home." "Cancel everything for the rest of the day." "I'll take care of it." "If you need me, need me, Sunday, I'll be in my studio." "Call me there." "I probably won't pick up, so..." "just leave a message." "I'll try to not bother you" "the thing that bothers me about this, beside the facts we are not prepared and... a multitude of other things, is... what this Mr Smith do when he's walking west tonight and you don't show up, that little freak and flipped out" "I will take care of it" "On the way to the airport." "What are we doing?" "What are we doing?" "What are we doing?" "You sound like a wining ass kid" " We are playing a hunch." " We have followed this guy all day." "He is boring, ok?" "And everything we are running incomes so clean well, If it didn't it wouldn't be called a hunch" "Meeks, he's the guy we should be looking for, Meeks." "Look where." "Please, tell me." "Ok, everyone knows who Meeks is and is looking for him." "The chiropactor was the last name to his all life that I know" "We gonna find him now, there's something is gonna turn him in we gonna troop over him at the bus stop" "On the other hand, nobody knows who the thumbprint killer is or where he is however I have a fucking hunch." "If this guy, Badford, does" "I've got 2 days to play that hunch" "So if you are thinking you are wasting your time with me, thea I'ld be happy to do it alone" "I had a fight with my wife this morning." "What's your problem?" "My husband wants 5 million dollars" "here you are Sir" "Sir?" "Thank you." "God grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change courage to change the things that I can and the wisdom to know the difference... it's for you asshole" "remember me?" "Can you step out of the car, please?" "I wanna talk to you." "So, Mr Bafford what is it you have to tell me?" "What do you mean?" "Li don't have anything to tell you" "Really?" "Because I was driving around and" "I suddenly got this feeling that you have something to tell me about the murders" "No." "Nothing." "Oh, that is disappointing." "Because... when I've left after we..." "we talked last time" "I felt like I've missed the clue that was right on front of me" "That can solve this whole case." "I don't know why you feel that can you tell me that, uh, you are an amateur powder that you like to make balls and vases?" "No." "I told you that my hobby was photography and not... powdery." "Oh, maybe, maybe that was it" "Flight attender upstairs says that the victims like to keep their bedroom curtains... open when they had sex." "Can I see some of the photos you took that couple?" "You harassing me, Detective Atwood." "You know very well that I'm not a powder and I don't have any pictures." "So my feeling is that your feeling is wrong and you should just move your car and let me go home" "What's your job here?" "What... what would you do?" "I am a mechanical engineer." "Uh, you gotta be really smart for that." "Don't ya?" "Yes" "Then be smart Mr. Bafford because you lie to me, right there in the end" "I'll be watching you" "When you wanna tell me the truth you gotta get in touch with me." "See you later al gator." "Gotta Lister to get us a search warrant for Meeks Doctor" "That's good." "God, Damned, this guy knows something." "Almost told me that something happened." "You think he did it?" "I don't think is quiet that simple" "Do you wanna call for backup?" "Yeah, I wish to be ready for anything infact I'll get a cane and I'll chop, rigth now..." "I don't have the energy to chase this guy if he'll decide to run" ""put your hands on top of your head"" "Clear" "Meeks was a steroids freak this is what is ususally fall..." "tempting now" "You think Meeks is having with him?" "I think he have turned the man... on me!" "Hawkins, we have here..." "Griffin" "How do you feel?" "Dirty" "It's understandable." "You never killed for this reason before, the feeling will pass" "I don't think so." "It's the whole thing, Marshall" "If i can fly away... suggest in the hole ...disappear, where there's absolutely no trace of me." "Because eventually I will get caught doing this It would be very embarrassing for me." "And Emma and Jane." "So I have been thinking." "Is there a way that Mr. Smith could kill me and make me disappear?" "Rule nr.1, Mr. Smith is not smart enough to do that" "I know that nr. 2 there is not reason, if you are careful." "To believe you will ever get caught." "I know that I will have to plan it for Mr Smith but I think..." "I think, that is what I wanna do" "Well, I'm not particulary fine at that plan, Earl" "Remember?" "If you die, I'll go with you and I'd like being alive." "I like... eating, I like fucking, I like killing." "I have to end it, Marshal..." "one way or another and I think this is the best way" "Fuck you then!" " Hi" " Hi" "You worked late?" "Yes, I had, I guess, 4 parts." "It's to 2,honey blacked money will be fine" "Mercies..." "I'd love Jane is in grace and I'm trying to get right" "Ehy Daddy, i thought you've been gone already" "Roger called... there was another murder last night at your school." "Yeah gone in the same way they talked to you about right down to the hatched been left at the scene." "They think they have a serial killer obviously you were here last night so, you are in the clear." "Well, it's... it's a good new isn't it?" "I mean even if you are innocent it's good to know you are not a suspect yeah, uh how's the... how's the morning sickness?" "Uh..." "Better than yesterday." "Do you wanna have lunch with me today?" "I'd love to but i don't know how i will feel later" "Thank you" "Do you love me, Jane?" "Of course I love you, daddy." "You are my father." "Have you decided whether or not to have the baby?" "Not yet." "It's time to go" "Dear Emma and Jane, my loves" "I have a terminal illness and instead of subjecting you to my deterioration" "I have decided to disappear." "Not try to find me, i don't wanna be found." "Please, believe that the time I've spent with you brought me the greatest joy of my life." "Iove, dad." "So you are going to go through with it?" "It's all planned to work out" " ready to rock and roll Mr. Smith?" " Yeah" "I smell gun oil, different gun oil than yours" "He brought his gun, if i forget what he wants, he plans to kill me" "Oh, now I get it." "You're counting on this yes, it's a sort of lottery but if you plan last to having kill you, how do you have to kill somebody else first?" "I'd live to see that he got the courage to kill me not even you believe that, Earl." "This make it more exciting, this's not?" "I think he's gonna kill you after you killed somebody else you get it in you rocks on, big time" "that's why you are doing this?" "Not true and if it would?" "So what?" "Hello." "Yeah, put him through" "I just got your message the weird thing is that they close that courtains at first they were open as they always were and they were make love like they always do when i had a look again, the curtains were closed" "and there were what look like camera flashes coming from behind the curtains" "Camera Flashes?" "That what's that look like" "That's why he poses them" "I'm sorry?" "No, no, no, nothing look, the guy you should talk with it's the guy at the floor below us would that be, Mr Bafford?" "Yeah, he told me once that he did take some great pictures of that couple making love" "He is the one you should talk to" "Ok, great, thank you." "Yeah?" "Hawkins, meet me at Bafford apartment with a search warrant." "Put this on." "Nice half hand." "Try I couple of deep breathes through your nose." " I have to take a crap so bad." " What?" "I have to take a crap." "We won't be long" "I've talked with your wife lawyer they are thinking about the 5 million" "realisticly." "How much you think we can get?" "Oh, If we go court, that case scenario, 2" "I think we should all fair to 3 it's not get biggish?" "2.5, 2.7, still be a great deal" "There's more if you want" "We have to do this quickly." "Remember?" "Morice's meeting us here yes" "That's good he join us it's not funny" "are we alone?" "Yeah" "Hello." "Do it... do it" "Don't do that" "Mr. Baffor" "Mr. Baffor" "Yes, uuuhhh, yes yes, you are the fucking man oh, man, do You see the look on their face the look on their fucking face, was great" "It was great, it's fantastic." "That was... everything that I, I, hoped, it would be" " Thank you." " You're welcome" "Mr. Bafford, I've knocked" "anybody home?" "Mr. Bafford." "Hello" "Obviously Bafford is gone." "Ehi..." "Obviously Bafford is gone." "God damn Hawkins, don't you ever knock?" "I wasn't able to get a search warrant but maybe we just got lucky, this is the moving company work order and this upset is the address where they are taking the Baffor's stuff" "Where you were when you called me?" "I was at home, in bed." "Can you prove that?" "I was at home, in bed." "Why do i need to prove that?" "Your husband Jesse and his lawyer were killed tonight." "Get the fuck out looks like the thumbprint killer" "I have an order to bring you in for questioning why?" "I did't want Jesse dead." "Ok, I hate what he was doing to me but I didn't want him dead their own record just said that you wanted him dead." "Who better can fake the thumbprint killer than you?" "You don't actually believe I did that our job had told us anything, Tracy, is there people do strange things." "They just wanna ask you some questions." "And I will gonna answer those questions after we got check out this addresses." " I have to take the wind" " Look this address is the answer for the thumbprint killer and this is where I'm going don't make me cuff you because I will if I have to" "ehy, ehy" "it'd be really nice if you can go with me ...but if you do and this goes bad they gonna burn your ass" "So this never happened you're nuts yeah, that's what they say" "here comes the gun yep" "what are you doing?" "You are smart enough to figure that out, Mr. Brooks" "Well, we are going 65 miles/hour, Mr. Smith if you shoot me now, there's good chance that we both died." "Not now." "Take this next out, friend" "You mean this one?" "That wouldn't be very smart, I mean i wouldn't" "think about this now, nuts" "You piss yourself back, you left your DNA at the scene of a double homicide and there's nothing to indicate that i was ever there" "then the cops do the analysys of that urine and then will you are the thumbprint killer" "no, no." "I have pictures of you from the first murder yes, but what you was doing at the second murder uh?" "Let me help you with the fly you say that I've forced you to come along and if I'm not here," "more specifically my body is not here to say otherwise you might have a chance to spit in a rehab" "let me ask for yourself." "Why would I help you" "Well, I'm tired..." "Mr. Smith." "I am tired of killing." "But I'm an addict." "I can't quit." "I've tried but I cannot do it on my own" "So I need you to kill me." "But I need it if you do it smart." "I want in a way I will disappear and my family never knows what I was." "How?" "How do i fucking do that?" "There's a cemetery I know about" "We'll find an open grave, you shoot me" "I'll fall into the grave." "You'll shovel just enough earth..." "to cover me tomorrow, a casket is lowered on to me and I'll disappear." "It's a good plan, don't you think?" "Why?" "Why should I trust you?" "You don't have to trust me Mr. Smith you are the man holding the gun you saw me put mine in the trap, remember?" "I know" "You really want me to kill you?" "Yes" "ok, ok" "But one sad move" "I'll drop and I'll make sure that your family knows where you are" "I understand." "You come down or what Mr. Bafford?" "Take your hand." "Are you parked very slow" "you don't wanna climb over, do you?" "What you do with the key of a cemetery?" "I own it." "Why do you own a cemetery?" "I always want invest in things people can do without water and cemeteries?" "Pretty safe bets." "Here you'll need this to get out" "yes, I would" "I wanna show you something." "Ok" "Here we are" "Ok how if, uh, I stand here and you stand there at... at, too far away" "And you shoot me..." "I should" "I should fall straight back into this hole." "You don't think I have the guts to this to you?" "No, i'm hoping you do Mr. Smith, i'm hoping you do" "ok, let's let's get this over with" "I'll close my eyes." "I'm sorry Mr. Smith." "I really did want you to kill me." "But in case, the last minute I've changed my mind." "I've returned to your apartment." "And I've been to firing pin on your gun" "Infact I even brought another one for you to use if you couldn't finish me" "If I had decided to go through with it." "Unfortunately for You." "My daughter is pregnant." "And just before you pulled that trigger I realize how much I wanna see the end of that story you don't even hear me, the cops will gonna find those pictures." "They will know that you kill that couple." "The contents of your safety deposit box Mr. Smith?" "I'm vanished" "that's hurt, isn't it?" "No, please" "before I was the thumbprint killer, Mr. Smith" "I have killed a lot of people." "In a lot of different ways." "It's says that the thumbprint killer is a monster annoying you a little bit, you can't take credit, doesn't it?" "No." "Anyone who's got what they do, wants credit since I'm not going to do it anymore" "I'd like Mr. Smith have the credit don't kid yourself, Earl." "You are going to kill again" "No, I am not" "I'm going back to tha AA meetings and I will control it." "But there is an answer I would like to have." "Atwood?" "Why you are a cop?" "Who is this?" "You are rich, you have good education, you could have gone into your father's business, instead you... went outside, all of them became successful on your own, why?" "If you want something from me then you gonna have to tell me who you are or I'm gonna hang up did you think that your husband's killing was random?" "And I suddenly didn't have to give you Meeks" "Mr. Bafford?" "Which is the answer?" "You not sound like you?" "Well, I have a little cold are you going to gimme the answer?" "Where are you?" "I'll tell you if you can give me the true answer to my question" "My..." "My father was very disappointed that I was born a girl" "And he let me know it" "I spent my all life trying to prove him wrong" "Thank you." "Wait... you... you promised to tell me where you are?" "Me?" "I am on top of a building." "That wasn't Bafford." "Jane!" "Jane!" "Wake up, wake up!" "I woke you up?" "It's ok it's ok" "I'm here... go back to sleep" "why did you fight it so hard, Earl?"
