Who shot Twice ?
/// My name is Sergeant Frank Drebin, Detective Lieutenant Police Squad, a special detail of the Police Department. There’d been a recent wave of gorgeous fashion models found naked and unconscious at laundromats on the West Side. Unfortunately, I was assigned to investigate hold-ups of neighborhood credit unions. I was across town doing my laundry when I heard the call on the double killing. It took me twenty minutes to get there. My boss was already on the scene. __Ed:__ Attempted hold-up, Frank. Cashier is the only witness. According to her, the gunman shot the teller, she grabbed the gun and shot the hold-up man.%%% __Frank:__ It’s the same m.o. as the others.%%% __Ed__: Could be, but this one has an interesting wrinkle. The gunman, Twice, is a good family man with no prior record.%%% __Frank__: Can I talk to her?%%% __Ed__: Sure.%%% __Ed__: This is Sally Decker, Frank.%%% __Frank__: Hello Ms Decker.%%% __Sally__: Hello.%%% __Frank__: I am Captain Frank Drebin. I understand you had a pretty rough time.%%% __Sally__: Yeah, it was pretty bad.%%% __Frank__: Cigarette?%%% __Sally__: Yes, I know.%%% __Frank__: Well. Do you feel up to any questions?%%% __Sally__: I’ll try.%%% __Frank__: Where were you when all this happened?%%% __Sally__: I was right here at my desk, working.%%% __Frank__: And when was the first time you noticed something was wrong?%%% __Sally__: Well, when I first heard the shot, and as I turned, Jim fell.%%% __Ed__: He is the teller, Frank.%%% __Frank__: Jim Fell is the teller?%%% __Sally__: No, Jim Johnson.%%% __Frank__: Who’s Jim Fell?%%% __Ed__: He is the owner, Frank.%%% __Sally__: He had the flu so Jim filled in.%%% __Frank__: Phil who?%%% __Ed__: Phil Inn, he’s the night watchman.%%% __Sally__: If only Phil had been here.%%% __Frank__: Now wait a minute, let me get this straight. Twice came in and shot the teller and Jim Fell.%%% __Sally__: No he only shot the teller, Jim Johnson. Fell is ill.%%% __Frank__: Okay, then after he shot the teller you shot Twice.%%% __Sally__: No, I only shot once.%%% __Ed__: Twice is the hold-up man.%%% __Sally__: Then I guess I did shoot Twice.%%% __Frank__: Well, so now you are changing your story.%%% __Sally__: No I shot Twice after Jim fell.%%% __Frank__: You shot Twice and Jim Fell.%%% __Sally__: No, Jim fell first and then I shot Twice once.%%% __Frank__: Who fired twice?%%% __Sally__: Once!%%% __Ed__: He is the owner of the tire company, Frank.%%% __Frank__: Okay, now, Once is the owner of the tire company and he fired twice. Then Twice shot the teller once.%%% __Sally__: Twice.%%% __Frank__: And Jim Fell and then you fired Twice.%%% __Sally__: Once.%%% __Frank__: Okay, all right, that will be all for now, Ms Decker.%%% __Ed__: We will need you to make a formal statement down at the station.%%% __Sally__: Oh, of course.%%% __Frank__: You have been very helpful. We think we know how he did it.%%% __Sally__: Oh, Howie couldn’t have done it, he hasn’t been in for weeks.%%% __Frank__: Well. Thank you again, Ms Decker.%%% __Frank__: Weeks?%%% __Ed__: Saul Weeks. He is the controller, Frank.%%%
