• Joe Mannix : Oh, uh, Mrs. Walker, please sit down.

  Cathy Walker : Mr. Mannix, I know you didn't want to see me. I'll only take a minute.

  Joe Mannix : Well, I'm supposed to be in the business of helping people, and when I can't see a way to do that, I just think it's a waste of time and money.

  Cathy Walker : But you can help.

  Joe Mannix : I don't know how. You were there. Your husband had a gun in his hand. You saw him standing in front of Victor De Marco's body. You saw him run.

  Cathy Walker : Yes.

  Joe Mannix : Can you think of a reason your husband would want to kill De Marco?

  Cathy Walker : No.

  Joe Mannix : You're sure?

  Cathy Walker : Mr. Mannix, my only concern is what's going to happen now. The police will kill Steve. He'll force them to. I know him. He'd rather die than let himself be locked up.

  Joe Mannix : What do you think I can do, Mrs. Walker?

  Cathy Walker : Find him before the police do, and make him turn himself in.

  Joe Mannix : Well, do you think he'd listen?

  Cathy Walker : He has to. He's been shot, he needs a doctor. I don't care what Steve has done, Mr. Mannix. I love him. And I want him alive. That's the main thing. That's the only thing.

  Joe Mannix : All right, Mrs. Walker, I'll see what I can do. You know that if, uh, you hear from your husband, you'll have to notify the police.

  Cathy Walker : Yes, Lieutenant Malcolm told me.

  Joe Mannix : Did he also tell you that he'll have no trouble getting a court order to put a tap on your phone?

  Cathy Walker : Yes.

  Joe Mannix : Good. It helps all around if you stick to the rules.

  Cathy Walker : Thank you, Mr. Mannix.
