mirror. Later that night, at 2:29, McCall sleeps
deeply. At Home Mart, McCall works industriously,

happened. In the restaurant with the police officers,
Teddy stares out the window at the security

(51) We figured two, maybe three, guys killed them all that
quickly.

Pushkin's organization')
2-191. /1900.10 1904.13 4.03 TEDDY TO MASTERS)

(41) I am all that matters. And so we're clear:
