It’s me everyone wants to hear from, but I’m not saying a word, said Luce. I know my rights.

Look, I didn’t know I still had pills in the glove compartment, and I wouldn’t have taken them if Mikey had brought me back on board like he promised, after I covered his ass last summer, I lied for him, for us, and now I get no disability, and he cuts me loose, and he owes me, the fat fucking bastard, he owes me more than he’ll ever be able to pay back, and no, do I look suicidal? I’m homicidal, okay, is that better, so I took a few pills, okay, so I took what I found, all at once, and I drove off the road, according to you, and I’m not in pain, no, and I don’t have a problem, I’m clean now, I’m clean, and it’s not like I killed anyone, this was just a stupid mistake that anyone would make if they’d just been stabbed in the back by a friend.

You can’t arrest me for that.

Be a pal, give me those last couple of doses you found in my pocket. I’ll take care of it. Then it’s all gone.

Who’s my next of kin? Call Mikey, his number’s on the card. In my wallet. Back pocket. Funny thing, I can’t move my arm. Funny thing. My number’s on the card too. Funny thing, we used to be partners. Call him, tell him I’m dead and he’s next.
