10:22Waiters, water mains, syphilis
10:24You're making me need to pee
10:26Pull over, quick
10:27Thanks
10:28I just hope I have half of Barry's energy and brains when I'm 150
10:37Oh my god, Barry
10:41Ah, Jiminy crickets
10:44Hey, did you find anything?
10:46Well, uh, I'm a single woman living alone
10:49Okay
10:50Yeah, so I can't do this
10:53I can't go and look for crime in the city because I need my bubble of ignorance
10:58I like my bubble
11:00I understand, we're just on a teeny-weeny, bit of a time pressure situation here
11:05Right, so let's just switch assignments
11:08What, you want to write my letter from the editor?
11:10Sure
11:11Uh, so here is the number for the police department, fire department, morgue, and poison control
11:27Truth teller?
11:28Hey, we got a problem, um, Barry stepped on a crate and cut up his leg, I had to call
11:33an ambulance
11:34Oh, you're not dying
11:35Also, you know, I should probably have your cell phone number because Esmeralda listens on this line
11:39Okay
11:41T-t-t-truth teller
11:42Oh, you picked up already
11:44Hey, uh, uh, can you still get to the water main break?
11:47What?
11:48Yeah, no, no, I know
11:49He gave me a promise to ride with him
11:51Okay, well, I mean, could the ambulance swing by the water main break on the, on the way to the
11:56hospital?
11:57I don't know that we have time for a pit stop
11:58Okay, well, get Barry settled and, and then check back in, okay?
12:02And keep your eyes open at the hospital, maybe just ask what's new
12:04Yeah, for sure
12:06Okay
12:11I've got five W's already
12:17Help you guys?
12:17Yeah, we're reporters, local ones
12:20From local, here, Toledo
12:22This is my reporter pad
12:25And, um, half the parking spaces for the dog-owning public are being occupied by you guys
12:30The, uh, department, in the parks department
12:33So what do you have to say about that?
12:35Well, the spaces are for employees for us to unload our equipment
12:38There's a sign right around there
12:42But there are plenty of spots out on the street
12:45I'm not buying any of this shit
12:46You can answer questions here
12:48You can answer them down at the station
12:49I gotta get back to work
12:50Thank you guys
12:51Okay, thank you for your service, sir
12:56You make a good team
13:00How many broken windows, officer?
13:03That seems very low
13:06Well, let me ask you this
13:07Would you say that the lower crime rate could be the result of increased police brutality?
13:13Hello?
13:15Did you set everything up?
13:17Yep, we're meeting with the assistant fishing gang warden at 1
13:20Sick, thanks, man
13:27Oh, you're stepping it up, I see
13:28Yeah, I just want to look polished, you know
13:30I like it, real professional
13:32Thanks, man
13:33Ah, Mr. Moore?
13:35Yes, assistant fishing gang warden in Brewster, right?
13:38Travis?
13:39Hello, Harper, how are you?
13:40You know you're not supposed to be here
13:41I'm here in my official capacity as a reporter, okay?
13:44Not your ex-boyfriend
13:45You have to respect me as a member of the press, alright?
13:49The First Amendment compels you about fish
13:51That's it
13:52I warn you what would happen
13:53Now I have to tune you up
13:55Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, hold
13:56Hold a second, Gary
13:57Okay, look, we're just here as reporters
13:58We have one question
13:59One question and we'll leave, right?
14:01Yeah
14:02Has the Bluegill limit in the Lake Erie district changed recently?
14:06You know that it has
14:07What are we doing?
14:08That's great, thank you
14:09Okay, that's one question, we're done
14:10That was a setup question, Gary
14:11I obviously need to ask a follow-up
14:14Go, yes
14:15Thank you, follow-up
14:16Harper, is there any part of you that still loves me?
14:19Dude, I warned you
14:20Follow-up to that
14:21This is the guy that you chose?
14:23Are you kidding me?
14:24Get out
14:25Get out
14:26Ow, ow, ow
14:27My foot, ow
14:28I want to thank you for your patience
14:30It's warm
14:36Hey
14:37Hey
14:38Hi
14:38Hi
14:38Is Nad making you do this?
14:42Well, he's letting me
14:44Oh
14:45Yeah
14:45Right
14:45Okay, I have a big emergency
14:49I need you to defrost the freezer right now, immediately
14:55Well, can someone else?
14:58I wish there was someone else I could trust with this
15:01But no one defrosts like you, Nicole
15:05You have these young, sturdy, strong wrists
15:09I mean, Nicole
15:11The ice melts at the sound of your footsteps
15:14The freezer's probably fine
15:17But I like to take the path of least resistance with Esmeralda
15:20Sometimes I go limp from resisting so little
15:24Just slide right off my chair
15:31Well, if anything burns down in the next hour or two, you have my number
15:35Thanks
15:37Hey, hey
15:38Is this the, uh, is this the morgue?
15:40Hey, have any bodies come in in the last 24 hours?
15:45No
15:48Well, could you check again?
15:51I don't know, like check the back
15:54Yeah, like they're, like in a drawer that's unlabeled or something
15:57Something could have slipped through the cracks
16:00Please, you're not, okay
16:01You're not even trying
16:02I'm just asking
16:02Could you check the back again?
16:04If you look hard enough, I'm sure you'll find something
16:06Hey, Mr. Busy
16:08Uh-huh
16:08Oh, hey
16:10I just wanted to tell you that I'm very excited for our lunch
16:13Oh, you know what?
16:15Today's not a great day
16:16Could we do it next week?
16:18Well, yes, for sure
16:20Thanks
16:20No problem
16:21It's just that today I had invited Marv
16:24And, uh, he wanted to make it a welcome lunch
16:27So, probably he's going to be a bit disappointed
16:30No, yeah, yeah, let's do it
16:32But just, could we, could we do it quick?
16:34Allora, in Italy we think that if a man eats quick
16:37He also finishes quick
16:43So then, Marv says, yes, the pen might be mightier than the sword
16:48But without paper, what are you going to write on?
16:51Oh, wow, classic
16:53You all right, Ned?
16:55Yeah
16:55I'm just enjoying the lunch
16:58Enjoying a long lunch
16:59Oh, well, I hope I didn't slow things down
17:02I know that sometimes I can be a little picky
17:05I've never seen a piece of fish get sent back that many times
17:08But it became interesting
17:10And asking to have the head put back on the brown zino
17:13Was perfectly reasonable, I thought
17:15You know, I should go
17:16I, yeah
17:16Oh, no
17:17As Meryl said you were staying for cigars
17:19Oh, yes
17:19Down, boy
17:20I don't, really?
17:21Have a cigar, mate
17:22Marv
17:22You don't know what he has planned
17:25I mean, it's galactic
17:29Only local news
17:30That's why he got the wire
17:32He is a visionary
17:34They're called balls
17:35They used to be standard equipment
17:38Pardon me
17:39It's okay, I have them too
17:43I'm gonna, could I, could I take this?
17:45Go ahead
17:45Fantastic, thank you so much
17:47Should be awful
17:51Hello?
17:52Is this the reporter who called before?
17:54Uh, yes, yeah
17:55Okay, here's something for you
17:57Someone called in bragging about a murder
17:59Taunting us to find the body
18:02Oh, my God
18:03What, like a, like a serial killer?
18:06Can't go that far
18:07At this moment, it just amounts to a threatening creep
18:10But it, it could be a serial killer, right?
18:13This is fantastic
18:14What?
18:15This is awful
18:16Have you come up with a catchy nickname for this creep yet, or?
18:21I'll call you back when we find out more
18:23All right, thank you, thank you
18:26Woo!
18:30Uh, hey guys, I'm terribly sorry
18:33I'm gonna have to shoot off
18:34But I want to say thank you for the cupcake
18:35And for the record, Marv
18:37I think my first issue
18:40Is gonna be pretty sweet
18:42All right, kid
18:49Did you see the way he ate his cupcake?
18:51Visionary
18:52Yeah
18:53Excuse me
18:54Can I have a doggy bag, please?
18:59Hey, you, you're young
19:01You know the cool things happening around, right?
19:04Is there anything new in the way of, like, skating, tagging, drugging?
19:08We're, we're journalists, we're looking for a story
19:10Tell us what we want to know
19:11Just
19:11How much you paying?
19:12Nothing, we're not even getting paid
19:14Just answer the question
19:15Okay, I see how it is
19:17Okay, I see how it is
19:17Well, the new thing around here is, uh, dogging, right, Al?
19:20Oh, yeah, yeah
19:23Dogging
19:24Everybody's doing it
19:25Mm-hmm
19:26Yeah, I've never heard of that
19:27What, what, what is it?
19:28Well, it's when regular tings like us just get together and, you know, act like dogs
19:31Like this
19:33Are you being for real?
19:35Come on
19:35Yeah
19:35Oh
19:37That's kind of interesting
19:39Oh, hey, hey
19:41Hey
19:41We've, we've got something really big
19:44We've got something huge
19:45Okay
19:46Sorry, it's just, it's, it's, uh, you were just the first person to know
19:49It's good news
19:50It's great, what, what is it?
19:52There is a serial killer loose in town
19:55Oh, God
19:56Obviously it's terrible
19:57But if, if it was gonna happen any day of the year
19:59It was gonna happen any day of the year
20:00It was good
20:00Good day for it to happen today, right?
20:02It was great
20:02Good news
20:03Okay
20:05Um, it looks like we got something
20:07That's a nice feeling
20:12How'd it go?
20:13Good
20:13A guy named Gary Gladstone was selling his boat
20:15So I sold him a two-column classified ad for every day until it sells
20:19But it'll probably go quick
20:21Oh, and Travis got arrested
20:23So there's no story
20:25Yeah
20:26Well
20:28I mean, an ad's always nice
20:29Yep
20:30And they call it dogging
20:33Slipping into a more
20:35More canine way of being
20:37And the itch they're getting isn't from fleas
20:41In most cases
20:43Just out of, uh, curiosity, did you guys get, get any quotes?
20:48What would the quote be?
20:49Wolf?
20:51What?
20:55Hey
20:58You're welcome
20:59Thank you so much
21:00Yes
21:03I checked with the principals of two local high schools
21:07None of this is real
21:13Here's what Esmeralda left me
21:15Dear Toledo
21:16My name is Ned Sampson
21:19And I'm honored to be the new editor-in-chief of The Truth Teller
21:24Yesterday I took over The Truth Teller because I felt like it
21:27And I would never say I stole this job from a woman
21:31I just want to extend my thanks to my predecessor
21:36Esmeralda Grant
21:39Esmeralda did the greatest job at the paper while also being a single mother
21:44Although you will never know because her body is insane
21:49And it goes on like that for a while
21:58Nothing?
21:59I got sidetracked by the freezer
22:01Okay
22:02It's okay
22:03The killer will save us
22:13Oh my god
22:14It's a coded letter from the killer
22:17Oh no
22:17Sudoku
22:18I don't uh
22:20I don't know if this is a trick
22:23It's probably copyrighted
22:24Or a series of numbers that causes a seizure
22:27But
22:29Hey
22:29The New York Times was shut down without Wordle
22:37Hey
22:38Yes, that's me
22:39Hold on
22:40Mirror
22:40Mirror
22:41It's the police
22:42They've got more info
22:43Hey Nicole
22:44You want to come in here?
22:45Maybe take some notes?
22:47I think my letter from the editor is about to get a lot more juicy
22:49Hang on
22:52Alright
22:53We're ready
22:55Okay, so here's what I know
22:56We're suspecting our murderer because of a tip from the morgue
22:59Okay
23:00This creep called in claiming there was an undiscovered body
23:03Oh my god, what did he say?
23:05He asked them to look in every drawer and under tables like he had hidden a body and was waiting
23:09for them to find it
23:11Oh
23:11The morgue worker described his voice as really breathy and insistent
23:16Oh no
23:17They taped incoming calls, this is what it sounded like
23:19Hey, hey, is this the morgue?
23:23Hey
23:24Hey, that doesn't sound too bad to me
23:26Maybe let me know if he calls back
23:30Thanks
23:33I don't think this story's going to pan out
23:36It's 538
23:38Don't know what we're going to print
23:41Oh, you know what?
23:42I think I'll type up the train schedules just to be safe
23:45Sorry
23:48Hi Toledo
23:48My name is Ned
23:50I'm the new editor here
23:51There's an old saying that no news is good news
23:55It's not something you'd usually hear from the new editor-in-chief of the town newspaper
23:59It's like having homework every day forever
24:02Until the paper fails and I lose my job
24:06And to be honest, it wasn't what I was planning on writing to you all
24:10In this, the very first printing of the revived Toledo Truth Teller
24:14However, as I sit here typing these words
24:17I think that today's events, or to reiterate, the lack thereof
24:21Were actually a gift
24:23A slow news day is a sign that your city is filled with safe, kind people who treasure their community
24:34Did you get my text?
24:36I made it
24:38It's in today's paper
24:40Well, is it too easy? Is it too hard? What do you think?
24:44Ha!
24:46Maybe too easy for you, Stanley
24:48So we're not going to drum up salacious headlines just to get your hard-earned cash
24:52We're going to print what really matters to you
24:55And I'm not going to ramble to fill space
24:57If I wanted to do that, I would just talk about Elmore Leonard
25:01And one of his great books set in the area, like 52 Pickup
25:05Where a Detroit businessman named Harry Mitchell
25:07Finds out that he's being blackmailed by a trio of criminals
25:11Who discovered that Harry was having an affair with an exotic dancer
25:14You know, I read an article you wrote
25:16About the first time the astronauts drove on the moon
25:20It was so good
25:22Yeah
25:2471
25:26Astronauts tour beautiful valley
25:28In first lunar motor trip
25:32Hmm
25:33When the crooks tried to frame Harry for her murder
25:36Instead of paying them off, Harry decides to get even
25:39It's vintage Leonard
25:40With a taut prose style
25:42And well-placed plotting
25:43That keeps you turning every page
25:45It was published in 1974 by Phoenix Paperbacks
25:49ISBN 977-807-538-19623
25:56Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera
26:01Yikes
26:01Yeah
26:02It wasn't perfect
26:03But it was his first issue
26:06And it was all of our original work
26:09Except for the first three chapters of Get Shorty
26:12It wasn't even a review
26:13He just quoted his favorite novel without permission
26:23Woo woo
26:24Woo woo woo
26:26Woo woo
26:26Woo woo
26:27Woo woo
26:27Woo woo
26:28Woo woo
