FRANK: I'll figure it out.





LUCILLE: My son's joined the Air Force. Go inspect the 

Air Force. I gotta work at six A.M.



She turns away.





FRANK'S POINT OF VIEW: She is wearing sneakers with

an orange crescent.



FRANK: 

Wait -- those sneakers --



LUCILLE: Sneakers? 



She looks at her feet.





LUCILLE: Inspector, It's twelve o'clock at night. People 

are being robbed and killed out there. You're worried 

about my sneakers? -- Do I look like a shoe bomber?



FRANK: Where'd you get them?



In the light spilling out from her room down the hall, we 

can spot the orange swirl on the heel.



LUCILLE: 

From the Air Force. They were donated to the 

Base. These were too small for anybody, so Duane got 'em 


for me. (thinks) 

You accusing Duane of stealing sneakers?



FRANK: 

(ending the interview) Thanks for your 

cooperation.



She turns away, walks back to her apartment door, shuts 

it, returning the hall to darkness.



Frank looks after her, thoughtful.
