00:02:29Here's the moment we've all been waiting for.
00:02:31Let's give a big hand for the beautiful Daisy.
00:03:08She says she's only doing it for the sake of her kids, but Daisy has a plan.
00:03:13As soon as she saves enough money, she's going to quit this business and open her own clothing boutique.
00:03:17Daisy's story is hardly unique.
00:03:20Countless numbers of women have paraded across those stages who, like Daisy, started dancing only as temporary employment.
00:03:43She's seen her friends come and go, friends who shared her same aspirations only to fall prey to prostitution and
00:03:50drug addiction, many of them old before they reach voting age.
00:04:09Now, perhaps Daisy will learn from what she's seen.
00:04:12Perhaps she'll be able to break free.
00:04:14But can any woman really escape this lifestyle without paying the price of her dreams and her self-esteem?
00:04:19On tomorrow's special report, we'll talk to two women who did.
00:04:22I'm Ellen Carlisle for WDCG News.
00:04:25That's our report for today.
00:04:26Daryl Zetka will be here at 11, along with Andy and Roy for the Action News team.
00:04:31Good night and have a pleasant evening.
00:04:32We interrupt this program to bring you a special bulletin.
00:04:37Keep that camera rolling as we must continue to follow this late-breaking news story.
00:04:50You see, I have the cure for everybody's pain.
00:04:55All right, let's cut to commercial.
00:04:56Keep camera two live.
00:04:58We're security.
00:04:59And when the world finds out, I'll be the king.
00:05:03No, no, no.
00:05:05No!
00:05:06No!
00:05:17Stop!
00:05:20So in the world, I'm high at my feet.
00:05:29Easy, baby, easy.
00:05:32It's okay, Turco.
00:05:36I'm the man with the plan.
00:05:39I've got the goods.
00:05:41You're the star.
00:05:45Okay.
00:05:47Ready for your close-up?
00:05:49My close-up?
00:05:57Phillips, what are you doing?
00:06:00You just tell Ellen to jump to her right when I count to three.
00:06:05Okay.
00:06:07Ellen, do you think you need some makeup?
00:06:09He looks great to me.
00:06:12Phillips, watch it with that camera.
00:06:13You're playing with 80 grand.
00:06:15Go to hell.
00:06:18Okay, now.
00:06:19Here we go.
00:06:23One.
00:06:27Two.
00:06:32Three.
00:06:41You ain't going nowhere.
00:06:43Slow down.
00:06:45You take them.
00:06:49Jeez.
00:06:51You okay, Del?
00:06:52Nice shot.
00:06:53Excuse me, pardon me.
00:06:54Somebody get the psycho out of here.
00:06:56Oh, my God.
00:06:57Damn it, you cracked the lens.
00:07:05Hey, are you okay?
00:07:06I was worried about you.
00:07:08Turns out the gun wasn't even loaded.
00:07:10But you didn't know that.
00:07:12True.
00:07:14Anyway, two weeks vacation sounds pretty good right now.
00:07:17You ready?
00:07:17Um, well, actually, as it turns out, I'm not going to be able to run you out there after
00:07:21all.
00:07:22What?
00:07:23Ralph wants me to stick around in case I have to cover for Daryl.
00:07:26Oh, God.
00:07:27Sandy, I just took my car to the shop.
00:07:28I'm not going to be able to get a ride at this hour.
00:07:29I'm really sorry.
00:07:31But, um, listen, I got to run.
00:07:33But you have a good time, okay?
00:07:35Wait a minute.
00:07:43Barrington at it again, huh?
00:07:46There's got to be hundreds of rental agencies in this town.
00:07:49I can't get one car.
00:07:52As lucky for you, I'm off to 11.
00:07:55Are you saying what I think you're saying?
00:07:58Save your life twice in one day?
00:08:02And that'd be a new record.
00:08:04The gods will smile on you.
00:08:07I'm an atheist, but I'll take all the help I can get.
00:08:11Thanks.
00:08:12Sure.
00:08:13Get my jacket.
00:08:14I'll be right back.
00:08:19The woman of the hour.
00:08:21You were terrific, doll.
00:08:23I'm not a doll, Ralph.
00:08:24To me, you always will be.
00:08:27You know what, Ralph?
00:08:29It's right now about, oh, 5.37.
00:08:32I'm on my own time.
00:08:34Please, don't pollute my time.
00:08:40Excuse me, Ralph.
00:08:43All right, how about dinner?
00:08:45I'd rather stick needles in my eyes.
00:08:48Great.
00:08:48I'll have Sylvia cover the 11 for me.
00:08:50I'll have a couple of drinks, a couple of steaks.
00:08:53We'll see what happens.
00:08:54I thought you spent your evening spinning straw into gold.
00:08:57You can spin me any time.
00:09:02May I just be plainly?
00:09:04Your fly's open.
00:09:09Hey, how about I come by your hideaway this weekend?
00:09:12I've always wanted to see the place.
00:09:14I'll notify the exterminators.
00:09:21Hey, you got that, doll?
00:09:22Uh, yeah.
00:09:25Oh, man.
00:09:27Got to say one good thing about Fredericks, though.
00:09:30The man is consistent.
00:09:32He's also a good argument for birth control.
00:09:36Sandy's a counterfeit human,
00:09:38but I can always count on you, can't I?
00:09:40Well, yeah, yeah, I'm a sucker.
00:09:42I've signed documents to prove it, too.
00:09:45Number four.
00:09:47Well, ain't that sweet.
00:09:52Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry.
00:10:07Oh, my word.
00:10:16Oh, my gosh.
00:10:21Oh, my gosh.
00:10:23Good night.
00:10:46So when's the last time you've been up there?
00:10:48Not since the divorce.
00:10:51Too painful, huh?
00:10:53Uh-huh.
00:10:58Would you like me to change the subject?
00:11:00Uh-huh.
00:11:02Uh-huh.
00:11:03Okay, babe.
00:11:04Uh-huh.
00:11:06Uh-huh.
00:11:10Uh-huh.
00:11:13Uh-huh.
00:13:50Where are these?
00:13:52Walter.
00:14:15Okay.
00:14:16Ellen, where do you want these?
00:14:18Under the sink.
00:14:20Thanks.
00:14:30How about this?
00:14:34You don't have any kind of system of organization in your kitchen, do you?
00:14:39Say what?
00:14:41Kitchen.
00:14:42You have one.
00:14:43I've seen it.
00:14:44Ellen, Ellen.
00:14:45I believe in culinary anarchy.
00:14:48See, I allow the cans and what not to express themselves.
00:14:52That way they coexist peacefully.
00:14:55Don't cook much, do you?
00:14:57Once, once.
00:14:591979.
00:15:00I recall a brutal experience.
00:15:05You get used to it.
00:15:07Cooking for one.
00:15:09I don't know.
00:15:10I don't know.
00:15:16I don't know.
00:15:24I know.
00:15:25I'm sure you're gonna be okay by yourself.
00:15:29I mean, I can stay here and help you take the sheets off the chairs or tables or, you know,
00:15:34whatever you want.
00:15:35The sooner I spend time here alone, the sooner I'm going to get rid of the ghosts.
00:15:40Okay, okay. But look, don't overdo it.
00:15:42You are that way. Come on, I know you.
00:15:45I promise.
00:15:46You promise?
00:15:47I promise.
00:15:49Okay.
00:16:06Now, if you need anything, you call me.
00:16:10Drive safely.
00:16:11Drive safely.
00:16:56This is a WDCG news break.
00:17:00Hi, I'm Sandy Barrington with WDCG Action News.
00:17:04At this hour, sheriff's departments in the Tri-County area are on full alert as a mass riot is underway
00:17:09at San Frindal Penitentiary.
00:17:10The battle began when three inmates tried to escape over the prison wall after attacking a guard.
00:17:16Spree killer Frank LaPierre was among the escapees.
00:17:19His two companions were killed by machine gun fire, but LaPierre himself is believed to have escaped into the thick
00:17:25woods surrounding the maximum security facility.
00:17:28Authorities began a massive search immediately, but have so far turned up no trace of the fugitive.
00:17:33The Montero County Sheriff's Department warns viewers that LaPierre may be armed and should be considered extremely dangerous.
00:17:41We'll be back after these messages.
00:17:43At Selozy Edelson Chevrolet and Geo, we are featuring something new.
00:17:48A $500 cash for the base is on our eastern side.
00:17:53All right, guys, listen up!

00:19:18Hello?
00:19:19Mom, I'm sorry, I forgot you'd be watching.
00:19:26Well, I'm giving myself two weeks to decide.
00:19:29No, Mom, Mom, that's really sweet of you.
00:19:31I gotta be here alone.
00:19:32Uh-huh.
00:19:33Well, I got a lot of thinking to do.
00:19:35Yeah.
00:19:51Yeah.
00:19:52Well, he actually threatened to come up here and see me.
00:19:55Think I should file a harassment suit with the State Labor Board?
00:19:59Right, but Kristen Kraft was just fired and my cue is the highest it's ever been.
00:20:03Uh-huh.
00:20:03I just want to shake him up.
00:20:07Yeah, yeah, I heard about it on the news.
00:20:09That's scary, huh?
00:20:11Mom.
00:20:12Mom.
00:20:13Mom.
00:20:14Mom, I just closed all my windows and doors.
00:20:16I really did.
00:20:18Uh-huh.
00:20:19No, I'm okay.
00:20:20Yeah.
00:20:22Yeah, you're the best.
00:20:24Okay, I love you too.
00:20:25Bye, Mom.
00:20:28Good morning.
00:20:55This house is lovely for you.
00:21:34Come on.
00:21:35Come on.
00:21:37Come on.
00:21:42Who are you?
00:21:45Ben Scanlon.
00:21:46Deputy Scanlon.
00:21:46I'm your neighbor.
00:21:47I've never seen you before.
00:21:51I've never seen the lights on here before.
00:21:53I'm not here much.
00:21:54What do you want?
00:21:57It's a little wet out here.
00:21:58You think I might come in?
00:22:00No.
00:22:01Sure.
00:22:02Come on.
00:22:08Is that regulation?
00:22:11They're a little more relaxed out here.
00:22:14Actually, I am kind of glad to see you.
00:22:17I heard about the prison break on the news.
00:22:19San Fidel's pretty close by, isn't it?
00:22:21About 12 miles.
00:22:24We'll get that guy.
00:22:25He won't be moving very fast in this weather.
00:22:29I remember when they arrested Lapeer.
00:22:31We interrupted regular programming.
00:22:33Yeah, I thought I recognized you.
00:22:35You're Ellen Carlisle.
00:22:38Without the get-up, you know.
00:22:41Even better in person.
00:22:44That'll get you a cup of coffee.
00:22:46You're on.
00:22:56You wouldn't believe some of the letters I get.
00:22:59I might.
00:23:01You know, I've dealt with a lot of weirdos.
00:23:03I'm talking obsession.
00:23:04One guy wrote that not only does he watch action news
00:23:07and all my special reports,
00:23:08he tapes my four o'clock to watch during commercials
00:23:11on other shows.
00:23:13So you say my autographed picture, right?
00:23:16Ratings.
00:23:18Ratings?
00:23:22You know you're awfully good at what you do.
00:23:25Yeah, maybe.
00:23:26I suppose I should be flattered by the fan mail,
00:23:29but...
00:23:30How would you feel if you knew someone
00:23:31was savoring your every move like that?
00:23:33It's eerie.
00:23:37I'd worry about the ones you didn't write.
00:23:40Oh, that really cheers me up.
00:23:44I guess that wasn't the right thing to say.
00:23:47Yeah, I'll forgive you this time.
00:23:49You can get some coffee.
00:24:04How long are you planning on staying?
00:24:07Two weeks, alone.
00:24:09Easy, alone.
00:24:10You just met the guy.
00:24:12Funny, you know.
00:24:14My vacation just started, too.
00:24:15Yeah.
00:24:22So, what do deputies do on their days off?
00:24:26Okay, don't tell me.
00:24:27Let me guess.
00:24:28Fishing.
00:24:29Hunting.
00:24:30Things involving canoes.
00:24:32Tents.
00:24:32Big yellow dogs.
00:24:35Motorhomes and bass boats.
00:24:37Mm.
00:24:37All the boys around the campfire.
00:24:39They don't take the gals along.
00:24:41Oh.
00:24:42Gotta be crazy gals in the woods.
00:24:44Except it might get mighty cool in them tents.
00:24:48That's what them big yellow dogs are for.
00:24:52Yeah, that sounds kinky.
00:24:55Ginky.
00:24:56Ginky.
00:24:59Like Daisy.
00:25:02What?
00:25:03Daisy.
00:25:06That gal you did the series on.
00:25:09You saw it?
00:25:11Sure.
00:25:15That's what brings in the viewers.
00:25:22I thought you handled a synthesis subject very well.
00:25:34I guess I better be getting home.
00:25:36I appreciate your coming over.
00:25:38It's good to know you're nearby.
00:25:42Well, that's just great.
00:25:47Where's your fuse box?
00:25:48I don't know.
00:25:50Outside.
00:25:57You got a flashlight?
00:25:59Candles.
00:26:24I don't know.
00:26:24Don't go anywhere.
00:26:26Honey, got it.
00:26:46headlight.
00:26:47No.
00:26:59No.
00:27:01Hey, Trucker.
00:27:02I think he's got something over here.
00:27:03No.
00:27:04No.
00:27:05No.
00:27:06No.
00:27:07No.
00:27:08No.
00:27:09I don't know.
00:27:10I don't know.
00:27:11It's better.
00:27:20It's better.
00:27:26I can't do it.
00:27:30I can't do it.
00:27:54Ben?
00:27:56Ben, are you okay?
00:28:17I almost had that son of a bitch.
00:28:20Came up behind me when I was checking the breakers.
00:28:23Heard him just in time or this could have been in my throat.
00:28:26Come on, I know that was him.
00:28:28We gotta get this cleaned up.
00:28:29First things first, I wanna call this in.
00:28:32He could be a mile away from here by now.
00:28:36Don't answer the door to anybody but my voice.
00:28:40Lock it.
00:29:21You should probably have a doctor look at this.
00:29:25No doctors.
00:29:26You probably wanna give me a tetanus shot and those are for dogs.
00:29:31I just hope the damn thing wasn't rusty.
00:29:38Well, uh, what's so fun?
00:29:42Go outside and check the fuses and come back in all covered in blood.
00:29:46Well, it'd be a lot funnier if there wasn't a psycho running around in my backyard.
00:29:54Well, I won't let him marry you.
00:30:01Have you got a friend or somebody nearby you to stay with tonight?
00:30:04I don't even have a car.
00:30:09Joey, it's Ellen.
00:30:11You gotta call me.
00:30:12You know that murderer, LaPierre?
00:30:13He was here.
00:30:14He was right outside my house.
00:30:16He slashed a cop with a knife.
00:30:18I think I got an exclusive on the guy.
00:30:20Call me.
00:30:27Are you sure you're gonna be comfortable on that?
00:30:31Girl, I spent the last year of my marriage on the couch.
00:30:34I know what you mean.
00:30:37I really appreciate this.
00:30:40I'll be fine.
00:30:42Okay, if there's anything you want in the kitchen, feel free.
00:30:50Good night.
00:30:52Good night.
00:30:52Great to meet you.
00:31:38Tell me you didn't meet him here.
00:31:40Yeah, sure.
00:31:41The trollers are still out there trying to figure out how to use a bathroom without help.
00:31:45He knows you do this, right?
00:31:48Oh, man.
00:31:49You know what's gonna happen when you break the news.
00:31:52I guess I'll just have to break it to him gently.
00:31:54Tell him you're in the entertainment business.
00:31:56Come on, Lisa.
00:31:57I mean, this guy's a gentleman.
00:31:59I mean, he cares about me, and Tracy and Jeff are crazy about him.
00:32:03They're just little kids.
00:32:05What about you?
00:32:07I think I'm falling in love.
00:32:10Hey, Lisa.
00:32:11We have a bachelor party tonight.
00:32:13Come on.
00:32:15Some girls get all the luck.
00:32:17See you Friday night, honey.
00:32:18See you Friday night, honey.
00:32:44Oh, thank God it's you.
00:33:14Good morning.
00:33:18Ben, do you want some coffee?
00:34:00Don't worry about Le Pew, he's probably miles away, but this is just to be on the safe side.
00:34:06Be careful with it.
00:34:09How about a picnic?
00:34:11Call me, Ben.
00:34:49Hello?
00:34:51Joey?
00:34:52Hello?
00:34:52Hello?
00:34:53Hello?
00:34:53Hello?
00:34:53Hello?
00:35:08Hello?
00:35:20Hello?
00:35:24Hello?
00:35:33Hello?
00:35:34Hello?
00:35:44Hello?

00:48:57Ah.
00:49:01Bye.
00:49:08Bye.
00:49:55Hello? Hello? Does your mother know you got asthma?
00:50:12Hello?
00:50:30Hi.
00:50:32All right?
00:50:34Yeah, it's country sheep.
00:50:39Feed store at Beno might have stopped, bought me a new hat.
00:50:44You're beautiful.
00:50:48The way you look at me, it's...
00:50:53Nobody's looked at me like that for a long time.
00:50:59I brought you some champagne.
00:51:01Another one?
00:51:03You know, this could get dangerous.
00:51:05You wouldn't want me to lose control, would you?
00:51:08Don't answer that.
00:51:10Don't put this on ice.
00:51:11Make yourself at home.
00:51:15Something sure smells awful good.
00:51:17No.
00:51:19No.
00:51:24No.
00:51:33No.
00:51:38No.
00:51:39No.
00:51:40No.
00:51:41No.
00:51:41No.
00:51:44No.
00:51:46No.
00:51:47Dinner's almost ready.
00:51:49Now, take your time.
00:52:01Lawrence, over here. I found a shirt.
00:52:08Jim, stay with the body till Cod gets here. We're going after him. Move!
00:52:19Yeah, that's number eight.
00:52:23You know, I should warn you, when I drink,
00:52:26my whole professional demeanor goes right out the window.
00:52:31You're safe with me, darling. I'm the law.
00:52:35I saw that news show last night.
00:52:38It's not the same without you.
00:52:42What's her name? It's Enola Candleby.
00:52:49What? You want in a secret?
00:52:55I don't know if I'm going to go back.
00:52:58You know, the producers have a saying for the top story on a newscast.
00:53:03They say, if it bleeds, it leads.
00:53:09The heartbreaker is there, right?
00:53:13The more sick stuff we give an audience, the more the ratings go up,
00:53:18and the more the sponsors want us.
00:53:21I bet you do good stuff, Ellen.
00:53:23No, no, no.
00:53:26You're the good guys.
00:53:29We don't try to stop injustice or brutality.
00:53:33We just say, hey!
00:53:36You want to see a close-up of the widow?
00:53:43I broke the story on Frank Lapierre.
00:53:47He murdered his pregnant wife.
00:53:50His three little boys.
00:53:53He shot two neighbors before the cops got him.
00:53:57I did a live remote from his front yard.
00:54:04They kept him.
00:54:08Cutting out these little potty bags.
00:54:16We got a 5.9 that week, our highest rating ever.
00:54:23You want another drink?
00:54:31It's almost time for my competition.
00:54:37Sandy.
00:54:39She's my dear friend.
00:54:40She's hoping I'll drop dead so she can bop her over the top.
00:54:46Of course, that's tough to do when you can't even pronounce Czechoslovakia.
00:54:51Oh, Sandy, that's not a salon, it's a country!
00:54:54I'm hungry.
00:55:02Have you ever seen a middle-aged anchorwoman, Ben?
00:55:13Didn't think so.
00:55:16You know, I don't know which future I fear more than when I get old and I lose my job.
00:55:26Or the one where I keep it.
00:55:29And is this my soul?
00:55:32It's getting tough to look in the mirror now, guys.
00:55:37God, you're a good looking man, Ben.
00:55:45Look at this.
00:55:47As reported at 7 o'clock this evening,
00:55:49fugitive Frank Lapierre was captured 5 miles east of the county line.
00:55:53Sheriff Daniel Cobb told reporters that Lapierre was apprehended
00:55:57as he tried to steal a pickup truck.
00:55:58Lapierre will be returned to maximum security at San Franville Penitentiary
00:56:02where he is awaiting execution of the brutal slaying of six.
00:56:07Thank God.
00:56:11You know, he wasn't very far from here.
00:56:17I put you in danger.
00:56:20I'm sorry.
00:56:32Hello?
00:56:35Joey.
00:56:36Joey.
00:56:36Yeah, I saw it.
00:56:39You don't know how relieved I am.
00:56:42Oh, yeah.
00:56:43It looked great.
00:56:44Ralph's gonna love it.
00:56:47And now that's funny because I'm pretty sure a little punk snuck in here today
00:56:51and left champagne and flowers.
00:56:53Now I assumed he'd be at the station by now.
00:56:56All right.
00:56:58Hang on.
00:57:00Oh, hang on.
00:57:01No, no, no.
00:57:01I gotta go.
00:57:01I'll call you back.
00:57:02I gotta go.
00:57:05Hi, Sheriff.
00:57:07Hi, I'm with WDCG.
00:57:12You know, you guys did a great job back there.
00:57:14Congratulations.
00:57:15Listen, listen, Sheriff.
00:57:17I need to ask you about one of your deputies, Ben Scalin.
00:57:19I don't want to talk about him.
00:57:22Well, Sheriff, it's just gonna take a minute.
00:57:24Sheriff, one minute about that.
00:57:36I need some air.
00:57:39Come on, let's take a walk.
00:57:42Come on.
00:57:50Good evening.
00:57:51I'm Sandy Barrington with WDCG Action News.
00:57:54Several nights ago, we brought you a story of a stripper named Daisy.
00:57:57Tonight, we bring you the unfortunate ending to that story.
00:58:00This is Daryl Zetka reporting live from the scene of the brutal murder of Daisy Copeland.
00:58:07Police discovered the young woman's corpse an hour ago behind the club where she performed as an exotic dancer.
00:58:12A full investigation is underway.
00:58:21Isn't this great?
00:58:23We're getting soaked.
00:58:24That's the whole idea.
00:58:35Sheriff, I got your daughter on the line.
00:58:37I'll put her through.
00:58:39Dad, whatever did you say to that fellow from the news?
00:58:42Who?
00:58:43He's called twice.
00:58:44He wanted to tell you something about Ben Scalin.
00:58:46Well, they never know when to leave well enough alone.
00:58:49Well, I'm sure you're right.
00:58:50Only he said he saw Scalin in uniform just this afternoon.
00:58:53What?
00:58:54Yeah, the man said he was bothering that gal on Channel 5.
00:58:57You know, the one you like so much.
00:58:59Didn't you fire him six months ago?
00:59:01I knew he was trouble as soon as I hired him.

01:02:22Sure you did, Ellen.
01:02:25You asked me if the department had a policy on obscene phone calls.
01:02:29You even want to know if I knew anybody down at the phone company.
01:02:34Don't you remember me going outside and checking the lines for tampering?
01:02:38Hell, you even made a joke about it.
01:02:40You told me how to take my gun with me for safety.

01:06:36He's dead.
01:06:39I shot him.
01:06:41What?
01:06:43Look what he did.
01:06:47That sick bastard.
01:06:51I grabbed his gun and it just went off.
01:06:57Easy.
01:06:59You're safe now.
01:07:01Don't worry about a thing.
01:07:02It's all over.
01:07:04Just get me out of here.
01:07:11No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:07:39I shot you.
01:07:46Yeah, you shot me.
01:07:49Three quarter no blanks.
01:07:55You think I'd give a woman a loaded gun?
01:07:58No, no, no.
01:08:08I shot you.
01:08:11No.
01:08:12I shot you.
01:08:21I shot you.
01:08:25I shot you.
01:08:27Then the Negi укle.
01:08:44Oh, my God.
01:08:58Hey, baby.
01:09:00You want to get a little bit of a hound up there?
01:09:40Ralph!
01:09:41Ralph, are you in there?
01:09:44All right.
01:09:44Hang on a second, buddy.
01:09:45Hang on.
01:09:46Come on.
01:09:46Come on.
01:09:51All right.
01:09:52Hang on a second.
01:09:53I got you.
01:09:54Come on.
01:09:54Come on.
01:09:55I got you.
01:09:57Oh, Christ.
01:09:57Come on.
01:09:58Oh, Christ.
01:10:25Oh, Christ.
01:10:29he's dead
01:10:43Sleepyhead's finally awake
01:10:46You were tired
01:10:49Well, now did you good, didn't I?
01:10:52You know something?
01:10:55The first time I saw you, you said there's a nice, clean little girl
01:11:00It's the kind you want to take home to mama
01:11:03I bet your mama and daddy really liked you
01:11:07They liked you a lot better than they did Laura
01:11:09As a matter of fact, that's kind of a joke
01:11:19They actually didn't like Laura at all, not even a little bit
01:11:23Mama told me, she says
01:11:25You know why you want to marry that skinny little girl?
01:11:29She ain't worth nothing
01:11:31Ain't much to look at
01:11:34So I caught a big old fight
01:11:38Daddy come in
01:11:40Told mama she said mind her own business
01:11:45Made me feel real bad
01:11:46Because
01:11:48I love my mama
01:11:49But I love both my mama and my daddy
01:11:53After that, I felt real bad
01:11:58Because it ain't the most important thing in my life
01:12:03I think about them every day
01:12:14What do you want?
01:12:17I want to be together
01:12:20I just want you to love me
01:12:24You don't know what trouble I've been through
01:12:27You know that first night, I cut my own arm
01:12:32What's the matter?
01:12:34Here, here, here
01:12:36Drink some
01:12:37Come on, drink some
01:12:44Isn't that better?
01:12:46Huh?
01:12:49What's the matter?
01:13:02If you let me go now
01:13:04I won't say anything
01:13:06You have my word
01:13:08I'd love to, baby
01:13:12I'd love to believe you
01:13:13But
01:13:15If I undead your hands, would you behave?
01:13:18I'll do anything
01:13:20Anything
01:13:28You know, my teachers used to always say
01:13:30I was the smartest in the class
01:13:34You were probably good in school, weren't you?
01:13:37Well, in eighth grade
01:13:39They said I was the best student
01:13:41I always liked biology, you know?
01:13:46They started smarter than the teachers
01:13:50Um, maybe you should have tried to be a doctor
01:13:53You could still do it, you know
01:13:55I know the dean at West Ridgeview Community
01:13:59I could talk to him for you
01:14:02There was a bunch of us, you know
01:14:05And we used to have this, uh, clinic on our clubhouse
01:14:09We would go out and we'd get these, uh, alley cats
01:14:13The more skinny ones
01:14:13The dogs would work
01:14:15But the alley cats was the best
01:14:16Just because
01:14:17The often middle of food
01:14:18You could get them real easy
01:14:20And we'd take these scrawny old things
01:14:22Up to our clubhouse, you know
01:14:24And then I'd always be the head surgeon
01:14:27Because I was the smartest
01:14:29And then
01:14:30The other guys, they was my assistants
01:14:33Were those your friends?
01:14:35Were they your best friends?
01:14:36What were their names?
01:14:37Don't you interrupt me
01:14:54Am I upsetting you?
01:14:56Yes
01:15:01You know, I wouldn't want to upset you
01:15:02For anything in the world
01:15:04And let it go
01:15:10Honey, I'd untie you
01:15:12If I thought you loved me
01:15:18Do you love me?
01:15:21You think this is love?
01:15:23Look at me
01:15:27You know
01:15:30There's a lot of ways to show love
01:15:59Just a minute
01:16:13Yeah
01:16:20Where's Ellen?
01:16:23Laying down
01:16:23I think I love too much champagne
01:16:29I need to talk to her
01:16:37What, uh
01:16:39What happened to the window?
01:16:43Uh, storm
01:16:45The tree threw
01:16:54You know
01:16:55I've
01:16:55I've never really known Ellen
01:16:57You know
01:16:58To be that much of a drinker
01:17:02You know
01:17:03Girls
01:17:07Luke strikes them
01:17:16Was that Ellen?
01:17:19Have a seat

01:17:41Shut up
01:17:42Shut up
01:17:43You son of a bitch
01:18:01Uh, a window is open.
01:18:03Blew a bottle off the shelf.
01:18:05Well, how is she?
01:18:09She's sleeping like a baby.
01:18:12Is that right?
01:18:17Excuse me, I, uh, I didn't offer you any champagne.
01:18:22None, I don't want any, thanks.
01:18:40Joey, come on.
01:18:41Come on.
01:18:43Come on.
01:18:50Come on.
01:18:53Come on.

01:18:59Come on.
01:19:00Come on.
01:19:10Oh, my God.
01:19:36I've had it with this bastard.
01:19:42What's wrong?
01:19:44Are you mad at me?
01:19:49Even when I first saw you, I said,
01:19:50that little girl there, she's a...
01:19:54She's a slow burn.
01:19:58I said her off, she'd go off quick.
01:20:00Shut up!
01:20:02Are you mad about that little slut, Daisy?
01:20:05Huh?
01:20:06She wasn't no damn good.
01:20:10None of them were.
01:20:13She had two little kids, and you took her away from them.
01:20:17Oh, hell.
01:20:18I did them a favor.
01:20:21They're better off.
01:20:23Get out.
01:20:24Better off!
01:20:29You know, your little girl, hold that big shotgun, doesn't fit you.
01:20:34Just give me that thing.
01:20:40You think that thing's, uh, filled with real rounds, huh?
01:20:47Just like the other one.
01:20:49It's full of blanks.
01:20:50Let's find out.
01:20:53Shoot them, Ellen!
01:21:09Do you think you might be pregnant with my baby?
01:21:24You, uh...
01:21:25You, uh...
01:21:25You don't want to shoot your baby's daddy with you.
01:21:28Oh, Jesus.
01:21:31Ellen, I know you feel for me.
01:21:35I trusted you.
01:21:37You lied.
01:21:39You lied?
01:21:39Shit!
01:21:40I never lied to you.
01:21:41I gave you my heart.
01:21:42I didn't lie.
01:21:43God damn it, I love you.
01:21:54Love hurts.
01:22:26You alright, Ellen?
01:22:32It's okay, miss.
01:22:32I'll take the gun.
01:22:35You sure you'll be okay?
01:22:37Take care of Joey.
01:22:38He's in the car.
01:22:44Oh, my God.
01:22:45Alright, Joey, we gotta go ahead and shoot this.
01:22:47Alright.
01:22:48Oh, my God, she's not even made up.
01:22:49Alright, keep it wide.
01:22:50Let's go ahead and start on the body.
01:22:52I'm trying to think.
01:22:52Let's see if we can get a shot of the body
01:22:54right before they put it into the ambulance.
01:22:55No.
01:22:56You gotta be kidding, right?
01:22:58Joey, you're a cameraman.
01:22:59Shoot.
01:23:02Ellen.
01:23:03I mean, if we make this by 11,
01:23:04we can go network.
01:23:06Here.
01:23:06That robe doesn't read.
01:23:08Here.
01:23:09The network, Ellen.
01:23:10The big three.
01:23:12Ellen.
01:23:15Come on.
01:23:18Alright, come on.
01:23:20Joey, you gonna shoot this?
01:23:22Forget it.
01:23:22I'll shoot it myself.
01:23:26Here you go.
01:23:39This is Ellen Carlyle coming to you live from the death scene of psychotic killer Ben Scanlon.
01:23:47Although ex-deputy Scanlon was thoroughly insane,
01:23:51he managed to lure women to their deaths from a facade of vulnerability and charm.
01:23:59But sooner or later, that facade had to crumble into madness.
01:24:05I should know I killed him.
01:24:09I killed him.
01:24:10You
