Da--david? Well, I left a note withour address on it.
It should be too hardto get in touch with us.
Well, I hope they'renot too upset about this.
Well,it's a hell of a wayto meet your neighbors.
That's weird.
Well, maybe the guy'sa bricklayer or something.

Did your wifedecorate it herself? Uh, no.

It's kind of hard to explain.

I love hunting.
Maybe you could help meget a license.
I don't actuallymake or sell the licenses.
I develop this exoticplastic film that the licensesare printed on.

It gave me something to do.
Well, we were impressed at how quicklyyou fixed it.

I would feela lot better if you let mewrite you a check, huh? Absolutely not.
Accidents happen, and well, if you ask me, I built that mailbox waytoo close to the curb anyway.
We should get going.
We have a millionthings to do.

It's too risky.
I think that husbandsaw the bones.
You want to thinkhe saw the bones.
You know he didn'T.
I don't know how hecould have missed 'em.
It was dark.
He was probably drunk.
You saw how bloodshot his eyes were whenthey came over here.
And if they did, they wouldn't have come over hereto have coffee with you.
He'd have gone to the police.
All that crapabout crime in L.
A.
Well, L.
A.
'Snot that bad.
It's where I met you.
You should becareful with them.
There's something brewingbehind those eyes.

It's all been a set up, in case you haven'tfigured it out.
Hitting your mailboxwas no accident.
We've been planning thisfor a long time.

I think that husbandsaw the bones.
You want to thinkhe saw the bones.
You know he didn'T.
I don't know how hecould have missed 'em.
It was dark.
He was probably drunk.
You saw how bloodshot his eyes were whenthey came over here.
And if they did, they wouldn't have come over hereto have coffee with you.
He'd have gone to the police.
All that crapabout crime in L.
A.
Well, L.
A.
'Snot that bad.
It's where I met you.
You should becareful with them.
There's something brewingbehind those eyes.

Nonsense.
I wanted to dosomething nice for you.
You deserve someonewho does nice things for you.
More wine? No, thank you.

What did you say? I said I really appreciatedinner, but, um -I should be going.
-No, wait! Wait! Uh-- we haven't evenhad dessert yet! And I have a-- a wonderfulbottle of champagne I was just about to open.
I gotta be honestwith you, harold.
I don't feel comfortablewith all of this.
I-- I'm a married woman.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Don't get the wrongimpression now.
I wanna be your friend.
Nothing more.
Well, uh, this is coming off asromantic, not friendly.
Well, sure.
I broke outall the good stuff to impress you,not seduce you.
You've been througha very hard time, lately.
I wanted you to be ableto enjoy yourself this evening.
I'm-- I'm sorry.
Of course you did.
I, um-- I'm just-- I'm a complete messright now.
It's perfectlyunderstandable.
You've been throughan awful lot.
I-- now I reallyshould go.
Oh, no.
We can't leaveit like this.
I tell you what.
We'll skip the champagneand go straight for dessert.
I bought a fantasticraspberry tort.
It would be a shameto waste it.
That sounds good.
-All right.
I'll go get it.
-No, no, no, no.
Please, finish.
Finish your dinner.
Oh, no.
If I eat any more,I won't want dessert.
Be right back.
AhI don'tmean to be rude,but I am goingto skip dessert.
Are you sure?Look at this.
Tempting.
But, uh, I'm reallynot in the mood.
What I need isa cigarette.
Okay, why don't yougo out on the back porch and have your cigarette? -You sure you don't mind?-Yes.
No.
I'm fine.
I'll save this for later.
All right, you go aheadand have a smoke, and I shall startclearing the dishes.
Much, much better now.
Well, good.
So, how aboutthat grand tour? Sure.
-Are these bedrooms?-Yes, they are.
And I'llshow you those later, but first I'd like toshow you my favorite room.
This is whereI spend most of my time.
Do you likeyour new family, celia? You see, I cangive you what david won'T.
-Help!-Come on, celia.
- No!-You're gonna beso happy here.
I'm gonna takesuch good ca-- I'm so sorry.
Are you all right? You weres-supposed to leave the back door unlocked.
I thought it'd be betterto take him in here.
Hey, let me see.
Let me see.
Can you swallow? Well, it doesn'tlook that bad.
Are you all right? She's upstairs.
She's wearingthe same green dress.
The same green dress.
The hellis going on here? My husband always saidI was part bloodhound.
It turns out he was right.
I tracked you down.
It took her a long time,but she finally did it.
What are you-- you killed our daughter,you son of a bitch.
You said your daughterdied from cancer.
You are a fucking cancer.
What are you gonna do? We're gonna kill you.
But first, we're gonnamake you experience every bit of painyou've ever caused.
Yeah, but someone'sgonna realize I'm gone, and then two missing personson one street? That's gonnaraise suspicion? We never fileda missing persons report.
We calledto report that someone had been lurking around in our backyard,you fucking pervert.
It's all been a set up, in case you haven'tfigured it out.
Hitting your mailboxwas no accident.
We've been planning thisfor a long time.
I don't knowwhy I was so hesitant.
You're right,it feels so good.
Yeah, it's strange,isn't it? We were neverviolent people until you took our daughteraway from us.
