His heart still racing from the encounter, Orville decides to give in to his morbid curiosity
and drive by the alley where he left Mahoney.
Only slowing enough to see the broad strokes, there were two patrol cars already on the
scene with their lights going. One officer was knelt beside the drunks body as the other one
leaned through the window of the patrol car on his radio.
He speeds up to leave it all in the rearview as an ambulance passes him. He takes the corner
and inches along a few more blocks until he spots Detective Delicato and Detective John
Dempsey sitting in an empty diner. Locking his eyes upon Delia.
"Next time, my pretty" he whispers to himself.
