The accent. I can spot any accent.
What's the name?

:15:05
Charlie Wilson. Met him on the train.
I thought I talked him out of suicide.

:15:11
He didn't show for dinner.
No word since.

:15:14
- Yeah? I meant your name.
- I gave all that to Missing Persons.

:15:19
Okay, mister. Okay.
I'll handle this, Willie.

:15:25
Thanks, Willie.
:15:30
- Fished this one out of the Gulf.
- Pass.

:15:37
- Hit and run.
- No, he's too old.

:15:40
- What'd he look like?
- Medium.

:15:43
- Medium what?
- Medium young, medium height.

:15:46
- Medium weight.
- Very illuminating.

:15:51
You can call him medium, what's left
of him. Barracuda got the rest.

:15:56
That's the lot.
:15:58
- All the rest empty?
- Yeah.

:16:00
Not much business
for the one cool spot in town.

:16:04
- One just came in, but he don't fit.
- How do you know?

:16:07
- You said suicide.
- I was guessing.

:16:10
This one came from a car smash.
You don't want to see him.

:16:14
- I might as well blanket the field.
- He's as crisp as bacon.

:16:18
- I can stand it if you can.
- Okay.

:16:24
He was like a lump of charcoal.
Johnny's build.

:16:29
It might be Johnny.
It might not.

:16:32
No hardware on him?
Wilson had a wristwatch.

:16:35
Nothing. He'd been cleaned as though
somebody didn't want him identified.

:16:41
The only thing was a hunk
of melted gold, like a tooth.

:16:45
Only it's big for a tooth
and it's got some black stuff on it.

:16:50
Black enamel and gold.
Johnny's senior society pin.

:16:55
So, Johnny had taken his last jump.
:16:59
- What's it look like to you?
- Gold bullet?
