EXLEY<br />
Larry, he called you queer. He<br />
said at Casitas you took it up<br />
the ass. He said --<br />
FONTAINE<br />
I DIDN'T KILL NOBODY!<br />
The voice is strong, full of conviction. Exley<br />
glances at the mirror. Then...<br />
EXLEY<br />
Why'd you burn the clothes?<br />
FONTAINE<br />
(sobbing)<br />
I just wanted to lose my cherry.<br />
I didn't mean to hurt her.<br />
Exley can't hide his surprise at this.<br />
EXLEY<br />
Hurt who? Was she a hooker?<br />
Hurt who?<br />
But Fontaine is gone. Head lolling, eyes squeezing<br />
out tears.<br />
OBSERVATION ROOM<br />
Exley steps out of the interrogation room. Dudley<br />
braces him.<br />
Bud's all ears.<br />
#3 ROOM<br />
DUDLEY<br />
Don't get sidetracked. Stay with<br />
the Nite Owl.<br />
EXLEY<br />
She may still be alive, whoever<br />
she is.<br />
Reading, Jones has his feet on the table. Exley<br />
bursts in.<br />
JONES<br />
This newspaper shit ain't shit.<br />
EXLEY<br />
Where's the girl? Did you kill her?<br />
No answer, but Jones looks nervous.
