:12:01
- Same chair, same perfume, same anklet?
- I wonder if I know what you mean.
:12:07
I wonder if you wonder.
:12:12
It was a hard-afternoon and I can still
remember the smell of honeysuckle in that street.
:12:18
How could I have known that murder
sometimes can smell like honeysuckle...
:12:22
Maybe you would've known Keyes the minute
she mentioned the accident insurance.
:12:25
But I didn't. I felt like a million.
:12:29
I went back to the office
to see if I had any mail.
:12:33
It was the day you had that truck driver
from Inglewood on the carpet. Remember Keyes?
:12:37
Oh, Mr. Neff, Mr. Keyes wants to see you.
He's been yelling for you all afternoon.
:12:42
Is he sore, or just frothing
at the mouth a little?
:12:44
Here, park these for me, sweetheart.
:12:55
C'mon, Gorlopis. You're not kidding anybody
with that line of bull.
:12:58
You're in a jam and you know it.
:12:59
- Sez you. All I want is my money.
- Sez you. All you're gonna get is the cops.
:13:04
Hello, Walter.
This is Sam Gorlopis from Inglewood.
:13:07
Sure, I know Mr. Gorlopis.
:13:08
Wrote a policy on his truck.
:13:10
- How are you, Mr. Gorlopis?
- I ain't so good. My truck burned down.
:13:14
Yeah! Now look, Gorlopis.
:13:16
Every month hundreds of claims
come to this desk.
:13:18
Some of them are phonies, and I know which ones.
How do I know? Because my little man tells me.
:13:25
- What little man?
- The little man in here.
:13:29
Every time one of those phonies comes along
he ties knots in my stomach. I can't eat.
:13:33
And yours was one of them, Gorlopis.
That's how I knew your claim was crooked.
:13:36
So what did I do?
:13:38
I sent a tow car out to your garage
this afternoon...
:13:41
and they jacked up
that burned-out truck of yours.
:13:43
And what did they find?
:13:44
They found what was left
of a pile of shavings.
:13:47
What shavings?
:13:49
The ones you soaked with
kerosene and dropped a match on.
:13:54
Look, mister, I'm just a poor guy.
Maybe I made a mistake.
:13:58
That's one way of putting it.
