BUD<br />
Somebody got wind of it, killed<br />
them all.<br />
EXLEY<br />
It wasn't the Negroes. The Griffith<br />
Park report was a phony. And, who<br />
says the purple Merc was spotted<br />
outside the Nite Owl?<br />
Dudley.<br />
BUD<br />
EXLEY<br />
The first guys to the car when<br />
Jack and I got there were Bruening<br />
and Carlisle.<br />
BUD<br />
Dudley's guys.<br />
EXLEY<br />
They didn't find the shotguns.<br />
They planted them.<br />
BUD<br />
It all keeps <strong>com</strong>ing back to<br />
Dudley.<br />
EXLEY<br />
It's Dudley for the Nite Owl.<br />
They just stare at each other a beat as it sinks in.<br />
EXLEY<br />
Pierce Patchett figures in, too.<br />
That's the angle Jack was working.<br />
Dudley must work for Patchett.<br />
BUD<br />
Let's just kill them.<br />
What?<br />
EXLEY<br />
BUD<br />
For Jack, for Stensland, for<br />
anybody else who got in the way.<br />
I've been trying to be smart. A<br />
detective. But killing those two<br />
fuckers, that would be justice.<br />
EXLEY<br />
Stay smart, Bud. We build a case.<br />
We play by the rules.
