cop and she couldn't see it.
Speaker 2: I've been married twenty five years and my wife selves can't.
Speaker 1: Anyway, we decided to break up.
Speaker 2: You mean she did, and I never saw her again.
But it was yesterday Friday. I got a phone call.
Speaker 1: She called me just like.
Speaker 2: That, Yeah, like that. It was as if we'd seen
each other the day before. She said, Hobby, I must
talk to you. I'm over to my place tomorrow morning
and we'll have breakfast.
Speaker 1: I would have been this morning. Yeah, so my life.
I got mad. It was the way she said it.
Speaker 2: I guess that if nothing had happened, like, drop whatever
you're doing and come running, just because I snapped my fingers.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, tell there, Bobby.
Speaker 2: Though, I said I have to be tied up, and
she said, said, never mind, forget it there, Bobby.
Speaker 1: It took me nearly all this time to get over there,
and I wasn't gonna start, and I guess I never
really got over anyhow. This morning I set out for
her apartment and there on the corner I saw the
squad cons al doy, I wanna work on this case? Eh,
what's to work on? Bobby? Some nervous pull get trigger happy?
Where do you find it? You know that one day
somewod who faces a rap makes a deal for himself.
I flow on the whip, throwing a pal. I wanna
work on the case, Alredy, I know, I know you
figure if you's.
Speaker 2: Gone there when she at she'd be alive now and
the whole guilty thing. I should have gone to see
her when she calls me, Bobby, not gonna.
Speaker 1: I keep thinking about that phone call. She she sounded scared.
They're building it up here. She was scared of something.
Did I must talk to you? Not I want to
or I'd like to, but I must now? Why did
she say much? Because she figured she overlooked him good
back ten years ago? Ared I failed her? If you
have got to let me work on the case, work
and what there's nothing to go on, no witnesses not.
Why do you insist that it was an ordinary pick up?
What else could it be? Suppose you want something else
like what hardy you worked on it?
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't get in anybody's way. The old lady,
missus Ogatatia, understand she's still.
Speaker 1: Alive, all right. I'll go to the hospital and see.
Nobody can see her. She's in an intensive scaar. I'll
see her.
Speaker 7: I know I can look at comportant for the blue tat.
Speaker 1: You can't see anyone doctor. She doesn't have to see me.
I just want to see her. You mean you just
want to look at her? Why the nurse cause she
keeps muscling something out. Perhaps I can catch a word
or two.
Speaker 7: Oh uh right, as long as she isn't deserved. H'm
funny how things are interrelated?
Speaker 1: Per what's her about?
Speaker 8: These two women?
Speaker 7: A young one who died and missus doty or may
not live out today? That a younger one, missus BURLSI
is her anymore? She was here about a week ago.
Speaker 3: What for?
Speaker 7: He it was miss she couldn't reach her own doctors
cause she came to emergency.
Speaker 1: Why but it seems she had a day severe serious
gener ocasion.
Speaker 7: All over her arms and backs.
Speaker 1: And what caused it? I don't know.
Speaker 7: She didn't wanna save a pet, so we gave her something.
Speaker 1: For a superficial relief. She probably cantuff with.
Speaker 3: Her own position.
Speaker 7: The next day, then she is in the hospital again,
this time in the morgue.
Speaker 1: Oh you want doctor who stop.
Speaker 6: Co Oh?
Speaker 1: Well, what do you make of that? And he seems
to be trying to say, oh, oh, woman. She can't
do the form the word, maybe not the English, the
words of the foreign language.
Speaker 3: Her.
Speaker 7: It doesn't sound like anything at.
Speaker 2: All in Ei.
Speaker 1: The name is stuck to yok older, stops yourk No,
it could be Russian or Polish. Stop that. I've got
to come back here again with a tape recorder. You
better hurry, you're getting with your Oh, well, there's all that.
If it's Russian or he Russian?
Speaker 8: Uh what is that name?
Speaker 1: Look, there's an Orthodox church around the corner.
Speaker 2: It turns out to be her church. The priest the
cape is hard to understand that he can make.
Speaker 1: Out some of this. Well, what she's says, she's trying.
Speaker 2: To describe a killer. That word who beats ow or
something like that. That means a fastened murderer. And he
could be an albino.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: She uses the word for pink, a word like hero
sabi in connection with eyes and hair. And there's one
Chi word chaldean acum. It could either be the chiller's
name or are any local funk's name kosm, or more
likely it's the Russian word cowbem or Chaldean, which means
albino or a guy with real light colored hair and eyes.
Speaker 1: Why that's right, Whitey barrels.
Speaker 8: It can't be.
Speaker 2: Why not because if we know Whitey's a hit man
for some of the biggest mob he gets twenty thirty
grand a contract holds up?
Speaker 1: Could have been a contract.
Speaker 2: Oh a little grocery storekeeper, direct girlfriend, this elderly Russian lady.
Speaker 1: Tell whom are they worth? Twenty thirty grand? But wasn't
the contract? What was Whitey doing in on it? You know?
Speaker 2: If the thing is this Whitey, this million dollar killer,
he can just be walking along the street.
Speaker 1: He needs some loose chain. Maybe he's left his money home,
so he walks into the first story. See, and what's
he going to get? One hundred bucks? Look at how
easy he is to describe. He knows he'll have to
kill every living soul in the place for all that
for a hundred buck. Yeah, Bobby, he would do all
that for just a hundred bucks. That's what we're dealing with,
and we better pick him up.
Speaker 2: Eleanor was in trouble left Why she called me, But
you don't know Whitey was paid the killer.
Speaker 1: And to make it look as if she is the
accidental victim of an ordinary stick up, he works it
that way and just killed two other people. Okay, so
now you tell me why she was Mark said by who?
I don't know.
Speaker 3: Luh.
Speaker 1: Maybe she was running along with Whitey And yeah, she
might have done something. He didn't lie, Yes, like what,
I don't know, like what maybe like folding you Princeville. Yes,
Dora Hastings. Yes, I'm a police to tick it athemy.
Speaker 8: Of course they do say about Ellen.
Speaker 5: Hadn't I've already talked to my mother.
Speaker 1: Of the six you were her roommate, yes, h, I

argument over something or other and that was it. He
years Maybe she thought he might call her, but he didn't.
Speaker 8: You believe a thing like that, Yes, So.
Speaker 5: She settled for the boss's nephew at Wainwright. Can you
imagine settle for lesser crane settled for a guy who
was either study or forty million dollars.
Speaker 8: But that's how she put it.
Speaker 1: She was one of a kind, that girl. Tell me, uh,
recently did she came up to set about anything? Well, yes,
I would say, so, can you tell me what it was?
I don't know. I asked her, and she said it
was just nerves. What reason would there be for nerves?
Did she put it?
Speaker 2: That's what I could never understand.
Speaker 5: She was sitting on top of the world, yet.
Speaker 2: She she was terrified.
Speaker 1: Terrified pretty strong word. Yeah, is she was care for her?
What would she concerned?
Speaker 3: I was?
Speaker 1: But if she made up her mind not to tell
you anything, you couldn't shake her. Yes, you know? How
would you know that? Oh?
Speaker 8: I uh, I know?
Speaker 1: Girls wants that. Now you have no idea what could
have caused her to be so frightened? No decides? Does
it matter anymore? She's dead. Try to remember everything you
can about her being frightened. That's how bad was was?
Speaker 5: You wanna know? Last week she got up in the
middle of the night, she couldn't sleep, she was.

She was gonna call this fella when I asked him
to come see her.
Speaker 1: Did she say who?
Speaker 5: No, I was in the other room when she called him.
And I guess you must have turned her down, because
she said later it doesn't matter now.
Speaker 1: And then.

Speaker 1: To help you.
Speaker 3: Help me.
Speaker 5: Yes what I told you, He just help you.

to know, when it's too late that both your lives
might have been different? Was that sick of merely a
covering device for her deliberate murder? I'll returned shortly for
that too.
Speaker 2: M The world should turn on love and understanding. Instead,
it seems to be spun by vanity and pride. So
many people could prevent so many problems, indeed put also
a very shape and direction of their lives if they
could only talk freely and openly.
Speaker 1: And honestly at the right time.
