"AMERICAN GRAFFITI" Screenplay by George Lucas Gloria Katz ...

I'm sorry.
STEVE
LAURIE
Get out! It's not worth it. I don't
care if you're leaving--now get out!
She reaches past him and pulls the door handle. The door
swings open and she shoves Steve out. Then she starts the
engine and drives away, leaving Steve standing there in the
darkness. In the distance, he hears the laughter of other
couples and the drifting music from their radios.
THE CANAL ROAD
Terry and Debbie walk slowly along the dark canal. Terry
takes a large slug of his bourbon and coke.
DEBBIE
Anyway, the Goat Killer--
TERRY
Let's talk about something else.
DEBBIE
--Whenever he strikes, he leaves a
bloody goat's head near the victim.
Isn't that creepy?
Terry thinks about it and indeed it is. He looks around into
the darkness and then takes Debbie's hand.
DEBBIE
They thought he went up to Stockton,
but two nights ago they found Carlie
Johnson and Don White right here by
the canal all hacked to pieces and--
TERRY
Who do you think'll take the regionals
this--
DEBBIE
--not only were there bloody goats'
heads, but he had switched all the
parts of their bodies around. You
know putting her arms on him and his
legs on--
Terry is slowing and he stops her. He motions for her to
shut up and they listen. The wind whines across the flat
valley. Ahead there is only darkness, then footsteps!
TERRY
Wait a second. Did you hear...?
DEBBIE
You think it's the Goat Killer?
TERRY
(whispering)
