- Quotes
Joe Mannix: [walks into Dorothy Kinman's apartment] Miss Kinman?
Dorothy Kinman: Thank you for coming here.
[locks the door to her apartment]
Dorothy Kinman: I just poured myself a scotch. Would you care for some?
Joe Mannix: Yes, thank you.
Dorothy Kinman: I must have sounded pretty hysterical when I called you.
Joe Mannix: Well, shall we say you sounded... upset?
Dorothy Kinman: I think these phone calls are getting to me.
Joe Mannix: When did the calls first begin?
Dorothy Kinman: A month ago. Four or five days after I left the hospital and moved into here.
Joe Mannix: Have you, uh... notified the police?
Dorothy Kinman: Won't you sit down?
Joe Mannix: Thank you.
Dorothy Kinman: Yes, they suggested that I change my number.
Joe Mannix: Did you?
Dorothy Kinman: Last week. I thought that was the end of it. But tonight...
Joe Mannix: How long did he stay on the line?
Dorothy Kinman: Just a few seconds. That's all there ever is.
Joe Mannix: What exactly did he say?
Dorothy Kinman: What he always says. That he's going to kill me.
Joe Mannix: Let's start with the familiar. Can you think of anybody who might want to hurt you, or at least frighten you?
Dorothy Kinman: No. No one.
Joe Mannix: Let's go back two or three years. Have you ever had any trouble with anybody? For instance, a cab driver, a clerk in some hotel, anyone at all?
Dorothy Kinman: I didn't think there was. Obviously, I was wrong.
Joe Mannix: Well, the fact that he knows your name doesn't necessarily mean you've met. And after all, you are a public figure- won the nationals- everyone's choice for the Olympics.
Dorothy Kinman: Former choice. I don't want anyone's pity, Mr. Mannix. All I want is to be left alone... and not to be terrified every time the phone rings.
Joe Mannix: Tell me, who handled your complaint at the police department?
Dorothy Kinman: Uh, Lieutenant Tobias.
Joe Mannix: Well, now, that's a help.
Dorothy Kinman: Do you know him?
Joe Mannix: Yes.
Dorothy Kinman: He wasn't very optimistic. It seems that calls of such short duration are very hard to trace.
Joe Mannix: Which means we'll have to lengthen them.
Dorothy Kinman: How?
Joe Mannix: By asking questions; making conversation. If nothing else, we might get an idea of the kind of psychopath we're dealing with.
Dorothy Kinman: He wasn't interested in conversation. He wouldn't listen to me.
Joe Mannix: We'll make him.
Dorothy Kinman: You're an optimist, Mr. Mannix.
Joe Mannix: Comes with the territory.
[checks his watch]
Joe Mannix: I think I'd better get over and see Lieutenant Tobias. I'll, uh, call you first thing in the morning.
The who wasn't all that hard to guess, but the why came as a bit of a surprise. Well constructed and interesting.
