She took a few more steps into the living room and stood behind the couch, directly opposite the television screen.

“I’m so sorry I’m late again,” she said to Anthony, fixing her attention on the television. “Wow. How long has he been on?”

Mary watched Pratt. He had begun to read the text from The Surgeon General’s Report. After a moment, she circled around the right side of the sofa, still watching raptly, and settled down next to her husband.

She reached out with her hand and placed it affectionately on his knee. Something was terribly wrong. For an instant, all the muscles of her face twitched. Her head jerked from the television toward Anthony, and she shrieked.

“Anthony! Anthony! Oh my dear Lord, help us!” She dove across him and grabbed for the telephone. The handset clattered on the end table. She punched the keys. “9-1-1! Please! My husband. He’s dying…”

Mary sobbed and cradled her husband in her arms, her tears splashing down onto his face.

On the television screen, Pratt had finished reading the excerpt and concluded his announcement with additional remarks.

“… only to do our part in preventing more senseless slaughter of innocents. The terrible tragedies of recent days are the work of a sick, perverted animal, not the tobacco industry or the good people who work in it. Nothing should persuade us otherwise. Thank you, and good night.”
