You certainly have a flair for
turning a colorful phrase, Luther.

1:08:04
Well... Well,
when you work with words,

1:08:09
words are your work.
Mmm, bravo.

1:08:12
Yes, I expect you learn a good deal about
words down there in that typesetting room.

1:08:15
Oh, I'm just filling in time
in the typesetting room.

1:08:18
Oh, I see. You'd do anything to become
a full-time reporter, is that correct?

1:08:22
Well, sure. Who wouldn't?
After all, a chance...

1:08:25
Including exaggerating and fabricating,
eh? Gotta be a fool to... What?

1:08:28
I'm asking you a question! Can't you
curb your imagination for one minute?

1:08:32
Can't you curb your tongue for
a minute? Atta boy, Luther.!

1:08:37
Quiet down.
1:08:39
Isn't it true, Heggs, that you were
offered a full-time job as a reporter...

1:08:43
if you brought back a
sensational story from that house?

1:08:46
A story which, in truth, you
made up out of your own head.

1:08:48
No, that's not true.
I saw those things.

1:08:50
- Yes, yes.
- I heard those things!

1:08:52
He heard those things.
1:08:54
Those church bells rang!
Yes, yes!

1:08:57
The organ played!
Oh, yes, it played.

1:09:00
I saw the bloodstains on the
keys, and they're still there!

1:09:03
And they used Bon Ami!
1:09:07
- Tell it, Luther! Tell it!
- And when I ran downstairs,

1:09:10
I came face to face with
a painting of Mrs. Simmons.

1:09:12
There was a pair of garden shears stuck in
her throat, blood gushing from the wound!

1:09:19
Mrs. Maxwell fainted,
Judge.

1:09:22
Some of you huskies
back there pick her up...

1:09:25
and get her out under
a tree or something.

1:09:27
Keep her head up!
Keep her feet up!

1:09:29
No, keep her head
higher than her feet!

1:09:35
Quiet!
Quiet down!

1:09:37
Quiet down.!
1:09:39
Quiet down here now.!
1:09:41
You listen to me, 'cause I'm gonna
tell you something right now.!

1:09:45
I don't know whether
I believe in ghosts or not.

1:09:48
Many the night I've talked
about this with my missus.

1:09:50
But I do know, there's only
one way of finding out...

1:09:53
if there's something going
on in that Simmons place.

1:09:56
This court hereby orders the
jury and interested parties...
