[runs over to Mike]
Mike Norris : Mrs. Barclay, what are you doing back here?
Karen Barclay : Andy was telling the truth. Chucky is alive and he killed Eddie Caputo.
Mike Norris : What?
Karen Barclay : I took him home to my apartment and I was about to throw away the box that he came in, when the batteries fell out.
[produces the batteries to Mike]
Karen Barclay : Don't you see? He's been moving and talking for days without any batteries in him!
Mike Norris : What are you talking about?
Karen Barclay : How I found out the doll was alive. See, I threatened to throw him into the fireplace, when all of a sudden, he came alive in my hand. I dropped him, and he got up and ran out of the apartment.
[Mike stares at her for a moment]
Mike Norris : Good night, Mrs. Barclay.
[starts to walk away]
Karen Barclay : Wait a minute!
[grabs Mike by his arm and he turns back to look at her]
Karen Barclay : I am telling the truth. He killed Maggie. He killed Eddie Caputo.
Mike Norris : Look, Mrs. Barclay. I sympathize with you. I really do. I hated what happened in there today. But lying is not going to help your son!
Karen Barclay : Lying?
[pulls up her coat sleeve]
Karen Barclay : Does this look like I'm lying?
[shows Mike the bite mark Chucky gave her on her arm]
Mike Norris : How did you get those?
Karen Barclay : Chucky bit me.
Mike Norris : [rolls his eyes] Oh, for God's sake.
[starts walking away again, but Karen grabs his arm again to make him look at her]
Karen Barclay : All right. Don't believe me.
[runs over to the taxi]
Mike Norris : Where you going?
Karen Barclay : To find Chucky.
Mike Norris : How you going to do that?
Karen Barclay : I bought from a peddler where I work. I'll start there.
[climbs into the taxi]
Mike Norris : That isn't a good part of town to be at this time of night.
[the taxi drives off]
Mike Norris : [yells after Karen as the taxi pulls away] Mrs. Barclay, do you hear me? You don't want to go there at this time of night!
[watches the taxi drive off in the distance]
Mike Norris : [rolls his eyes] God damn it.
[walks to his car]
