[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]

NARRATOR: Johnny Domino was one of San Francisco'’s

hottest young jazz musicians,

but fate and a cosmic event

were about to change his life forever.

[LIGHTNING STRIKES]

[JOHNNY EXCLAIMS IN PAIN]

[WOMEN SCREAM]

What the doctors told him seemed impossible.

WALTON: John, your brain has managed

to acquire the capacity

to pick up certain frequencies like a radio.

But, Doc, I'’m only hearing bad stuff.

WALTON: Yes, exactly.

You'’re tuned to the frequency of evil.

[MAN EXCLAIMS IN AGONY]Who sent you?

[GUNSHOT FIRED]

[JOHNNY EXCLAIMS IN PAIN]

[CAR TIRE SCREECHING]

Hold it, now. I'’m on your side.[JOHNNY PANTING]

RALEIGH: A whole new line of super tools

developed for super policemen.

A belt which enables him to overcome gravity.

Fabrics which are virtually bulletproof.

A stealth mode, which makes him seem to disappear.

A holographic display

which makes him appear to be where he ain'’t.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

DOCTOR: The concept of astral projection

or teleportation

has been debated for centuries.

Can man leave his earthly body during a sleep state

and travel to distant places?

There are eyewitness accounts

dating back to the 1600s which attempt to prove such phenomenon.

But today

marks the first time in history

that astral projection will be proven

in a controlled demonstration

before scientifically credentialed witnesses.

On the night of October 22nd,

Vanessa was struck by lightning,

permanently mutating a portion of her cerebral cortex.

Almost immediately she began experiencing episodes

she at first imagined to be dreams.

Under a doctor'’s care,

it was determined that she developed the ability

to transport herself out of body to distant places.

The ability to virtually be in two places at the same time.

Now, my dear, you know what is to happen.

Well,

don'’t be frightened of them.

They'’re all scientists here to observe your amazing power.

Now,

relax.

We'’ve done this countless times.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Vanessa, rNST, will now slip into a state

we term psychic slumber.

Watch.

And watch carefully

what no human being has ever witnessed

under controlled scientific conditions.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

[DOOR OPENS]

Dr. Swake.

Dr. Swake, I must speak with you.

I have come here to ask you

specifically not to proceed.

You can'’t be serious.

[PEOPLE GASPING IN SURPRISE]

DOCTOR: It'’s happening for all the world to see.

A human being

literally existing in two places at once.

If you will now direct your undivided attention to the monitors,

you will see we are tracking Vanessa in her very real state.

If you do not stop her, young Vanessa will die.

MAN ON RADIO: Dr. Swake, she'’s leaving the building.

She has cleared the entrance, now she'’s walking outside.

DOCTOR: As you can see, she'’s perfectly safe.

And we have security people out there to assure that.

But historical tradition has it

that the danger in teleportation

is not for the traveler!

It is the host who remains behind, who is linked by what they call the...

the golden thread.

Now if this golden thread is severed

when that spirit there is wandering,

death is instant.

Folklore.

Oh...

No.

[SCREAMING]

DOCTOR: Even if what you'’re saying were true,

how could she be any safer than by being here in front of all these witnesses.

Witnesses.

Yes.

He'’s here.

DOCTOR: Who is here?

MAN ON RADIO: Sir, she'’s leaving.

Perhaps it would be best to bring her back now.

I believe we'’ve proved

all we need to.

Did you hear me? Bring her back now!

Vanessa, you must come now. That'’s it.

Vanessa, don'’t worry.

You see, they'’ve caught up with her and everything is fine.

WALTON: Get Vanessa out of here.

She mustn'’t be awakened...

She cannot be disturbed in this state.

[WOMAN SCREAMING]

No!

It'’s all right.

Vanessa, come this way.

MAN: Stay right there, Vanessa...

MAN 1: We lost her.MAN 2: Where'’d she go?

She'’s dead.

How many more will he kill before we can stop him?

[JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]

[JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]

I know this Parks, I wonder what she'’s up to.

Oh, Charlie, who cares?

You know, ex-cop would go any place for a free meal.

Besides, I think she'’s cute.

Yeah, well, personally,

the press offering to pick up a meal of mine affects my appetite.

Well, don'’t get up.

Hey.

Hi.

It'’s business,

and it'’s on the record.

Told you there was no free lunch.

Lady, my policy is nothing goes on the record I haven'’t already read in the paper.

I'’ve no problem with that.

My life'’s an open book.

Look, you don'’t need to be so worried, Lieutenant,

you don'’t even know what this story is about.

So, tell me,

just why was your TV station buying?

Good, we'’ll get right to it.

There'’s something

or someone out there in the city that'’s fighting criminals in the dark of night.

Yeah, they'’re called cops, we'’ve been doing it for years.

We don'’t know if it'’s to take over crime in the city or to stamp it out.

But, a lot of people have been aware of this sudden presence in our community,

and no one'’s saying anything.

Lady, I got no idea what you'’re talking about.

I think you do.

I'’m talking about some kind of private crime fighter.

We'’re back to that caped demon you claim you saw a few months ago, are we?

Look, I'’m not the only one who saw... him, her, whatever.

Frank saw it, too. Didn'’t you, Frank?

Well, not...It'’s been years since anyone had the bad judgment

to refer to Frank as reliable source.

You take a really good look

at something I had our sketch artists put together based on various reportings.

Frank, you said that you saw kind of...

night creature the night the beast was loose in the park.

I saw something.

I don'’t know what it was, but there was something there.

Don'’t go there, Frank, I'’m warning you.

Go where, Dad?

You got some time off?

Hang on just a minute, Son, we got something important going down here.

Ms. Parks, you wanna show me that drawing your sketch artists came up with?

Was the night creature you saw...

Did he look anything like...

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

Like this?

That'’s him, exactly.

Oh...

JENNIFER: And here is what you Bay city residents

say you'’ve been observing across the skyline after dark.

Friend or foe?

Good or evil, no one seems to know for certain.

But this station has decided to post a substantial reward

to anyone with proof of this person or creature'’s existence.

So, get out those home video cameras, folks.

Any idea when these sightings first began?

Apparently about six months ago.

Oh, it'’s a good story, Jennifer.

[ELEVATOR BELL RINGS]

Oh. Oh my God!

You saved my life, that laptop'’s not even paid for.

You must be Ms. Parks.

I was just on my way to see you.

Me?Yeah, your broadcast right now,

I think I have some information that might be very useful to you.

Oh, you know what? Uh,

if this is about the reward, all information has to be cleared upstairs.

Yes, I'’m not interested in any reward.

I'’m interested in law and order.

You know what, I'’m always a little cynical about people who aren'’t interested in money.

Even someone you said just saved your life?

Okay, good point.

Um... What do you have for me?

I believe I know precisely when your Night Man came to power.

I also know the how and why of it.

Interested?

Why don'’t we go back upstairs to my office?

[INHALES DEEPLY]

I prefer someplace a little more private.

Sure.Let'’s take a drive.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]

If you can'’t give me a good reason

for insisting on why we come way out here to talk,

I will get back in my car, and I will call you a cab to take you back.

October 22nd of last year,

your newspapers ran a story about a freak electrical storm that destroyed a cable car.

JENNIFER: Actually the cable car was hit by lightning and then subsequently struck by a bomb.

But the news reports didn'’t differentiate

between who was injured by the lightning or the subsequent bomb.

A local musician was the only one who was actually struck by the lightning.

But that story was overshadowed by the fact that he threw a bomb off the car

and saved a lot of important people'’s lives.

How did this musician know the bomb was there?

Well, that'’s never been entirely clear, but...

you know, he did it and he became a big hero.

Has there ever been any one person who'’s...

turned up more than once in the proximity of these Night Man sightings?

Only Johnny Domino.The same musician.

I'’d like to meet this big hero.

Can you arrange that?

[SIGHS] I'’m sure I could.

But, you know what, you haven'’t given me any reason to...

you know, on why I came all the way out here.

Arrange the meeting,

and it will all become clear to you.

[JAZZ MUSIC PAYING]

MAN IN THE AUDIENCE: Yeah.[CROWD APPLAUDS]

Yeah.

JOHNNY: Thank you. Be back in ten.

Hey, Johnny,

you, uh... you have a guest.

[EXHALES] Not now, Raleigh, I got a bunch of phone calls to return, including one from that

damn reporter.

I think you'’ll want to hear what I want to say.

Johnny.

Doc.

Where have you been? I thought you dropped off the planet.

Almost.

I went to seven continents in four months.

By the look of you, it wasn'’t much of a vacation.

No.

My mission was deadly serious.

Your life is in imminent danger.

So, uh, what else is new?

You'’ve never come up against an adversary like Joran.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

Why do you want him dead?

So, picking up a thought or two, I see.

That maybe the only thing that'’ll save your life.

[EXHALES] All right, Doc, let'’s have it.

I discovered that you were not the only one who was struck by that cosmic lightning

on 22nd of October, last year,

there were others.

They'’re scattered over seven continents.

All of them escaped death,

and they found themselves with unique

mental and physical powers!

Unique in what way?

A girl in Spain

had mastered teleportation.

There was a boy in Buenos Aires.

He developed a remarkable level of clairvoyance.

There was a young man from Finland,

and he had a level of self healing

which is nothing short of biblical.

Right, you keep saying, "had," as if...

as if they had lost these powers.Right.

Well, three of them had lost,

well, their lives.

They were murdered by Joran!

Why?

'’Cause he believes that by killing them

he can absorb their powers.

Uh, if I didn'’t know anything about these children of the cosmos, then...

how did they learn about each other?

A fool allowed his notes of the interrogation to...

get in the wrong hands.

And what fool was that?

Me.

Through my work, he'’s learned where the others are.

But he doesn'’t know who they are.

What makes you so sure that... that I'’m gonna be Joran's next target?

Because I followed him here.

[KNOCK AT DOOR]

Break'’s getting a little long, Johnny.

Yup, yeah, I... I'’ll be right there.

Oh, and the TV news cast have brought someone in that she wants you to meet...

after your show.

WALTON: Johnny, I want you to take my warning seriously.

You'’ve never encountered anyone like this Joran before.

Yeah, yeah, I hear you, Doc.

If this guy comes around,

I'’ll handle it.

[JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]

Now, that'’s my kinda music.

Swing'’s very big right now.

It'’s making a comeback.

Too bad you aren'’t.Yeah.

Hey, Charlie, did you ever learn how to dip?

Sure, Frank, I can dip.

Yeah.You wanna see me dip?

Dips right into the boots.Hey, Allison.

Hey, Allison.Usual.

I'’m buying.

Oh, what'’s the occasion?

I want your help, Frank.

Important case, huh?

Hardly. More like an inane story that broke on TV about a mysterious crime fighter.

Yeah, I saw that.

What do you think about that?

I think it'’s something we don'’t need in this city right about now.

So, how do I help?

You can help by not adding fuel to fire.

You can help by laying off this big red eye story, Frank.

Well,

I saw what I saw, Charlie...Frank, our switch boards

are lit up all over this city, with cretins calling in about sightings of this caped wonder.

You know what those police lines are for,

reporting crimes.

You couldn'’t get through right now if you were the President,

and your hair coloring was stolen.

Well, all right, Charlie, so you got a problem.

I'’ll tell you what I'll do, I'’ll keep a low profile, okay?

I'’d appreciate it.

Mr. Dominus, hi.Hi.

I'’m sorry to interrupt, but I'’m here with a guest I think you might want to meet.

Well, if you didn'’t interrupt, you wouldn'’t have to say you'’re sorry.

Mr. Joran maybe the world'’s leading authority on mysterious figures who appear in the night.

I'’d like very much to meet him.

Frank.

Because I'’m a skeptic.

I mean... I... In fact, I don'’t even know what I saw anymore.

Damn it.

[JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]

I hear he'’s quite the hero.

Yeah, he'’s got all the moves, that kid.

It'’s instinctive with him.

I mean, it'’s just something he just kinda naturally inherited from...

well, from a long line of cops.

I bet you wanted him to be a cop too, then, huh?

Yeah, well...

Johnny loves his music.

But I tell you,

had he become a cop,

that kid would'’ve gone all the way.

I mean look at him.

He'’s as agile as a dancer.

Yet, as strong as an ox.

He'’s got all the moves of a...

jungle predator.

[MUFFLED BUZZING]

[JOHNNY SCREAMS]

The moves of a jungle predator, huh?

What did you say?

Johnny.WOMAN IN CROWD: You all right?

It actually occurred to me that this... Johnny fellow might be the Night Man.

That'’s a joke.

Look, would you excuse me?

You'’re the joke, Mr. Superhero.

But we'’ll make a show of it.

What happened? Johnny, you okay?

You all right?

[EXHALING] Yeah, yeah.

JOHNNY: Sorry, ladies and gentlemen. I'’ll be back in ten.

Enjoy Big Time Operator.

[JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]

[JENNIFER SIGHS]

Wow.

That was quite a fall.

Certainly was.

Now I must be going.

Wait a minute, I thought you wanted to meet him.

Another time.

Now, excuse me.

Where is he?

Who?That scum you brought in here tonight.

Mr. Joran had to go home...

WALTON: Johnny, you mustn'’t confront him on his own ground.

Stop him, Raleigh.

Yeah, I'’ll do my best.Wait...

Would you mind telling me what'’s going on here?Yes, it'’s very very simple.

The man you brought with you is gonna kill Johnny.

Not a very positive performance, Johnny.

[GROANS]

Now show me what you can do.

Just as I thought.

Without your little nightgown, you'’re...

quite pathetic.

Tell me, Johnny. Did you get absolutely nothing from the cosmic millennium?

You got the wrong guy.

I don'’t know what you'’re talking about.Oh, I think you do.

You see, there could only be one man of the hour,

one superhero.

And that is going to be me.

You call yourself a superhero.

You'’re killing people.

No, the natural pruning process of the universe

to prepare a way for a rose.

You must first clear out the weeds.

Oh, well,

Rose,

I have news for you.

I'’m gonna nip you in the bud.

Amusing, Johnny.

Considering all your so called tools of superiority you'’ve borrowed.

From what I can tell,

you got nothing to show for your little... cosmic dance with lightning.

Where as I am...

left with powers that even dazzle me.

Ah, forget the hose, it won'’t reach.

So, that'’s the talent.

Oh, Johnny, it'’s pitiful.

[GROANS]

[GRUNTS]

You getting worried, Johnny?

Why bother?

You don'’t wanna finish the job here.

Not a big enough audience.

We'’ll meet again, Johnny.

Very soon.

Nice car.

[ENGINE STARTS]

[ENGINE REVS]

Johnny. Hey!

[EXCLAIMS]

RALEIGH: Johnny.

[GASPING]

What happened, man?

Joran happened.

How did he get the drop on you?

That'’s the bad part.

He stood

right out in the open,

said he was gonna kick my butt, and then did it.

You weren'’t prepared.

How'’d you stop the car?

I didn'’t, the guy who started it, stopped it.

Joran wants to toy with me some more.

Yeah, well, once you get into full battle gear, he'’s gonna regret this.

Oh, I wouldn'’t count on it, Raleigh.I'’m counting on it.

I'’m counting on it. We'’re gonna bring this Joran guy down. I mean...

What kind of monster makes a guy'’s own car turn against him?

JOHNNY: You were right.

He'’s more than I can handle.

Not necessarily.

Remember,

every attempt he makes will be evil.

Right. Right, so you'’ll be able to read what he'’s gonna do

before he does it.

Knowing someone'’s gonna drop a building on you a split second before it happens

isn'’t much of an edge.

Look, we gotta work with what we'’ve got.

He wants to lure you into a duel.

Oh, Doc, there'’s not gonna be a duel.

I don'’t have the weapons.

[KEYBOARD CLICKING]

Good evening, Ms. Parks.

[EXCLAIMS]

You scared the hell out of me.

You here all alone?

Uh,

at this hour I have to do my own research.

What do you know about a series of coincidental electrical disturbances

that lit up seven continents at the same precise hour,

October 22nd of last year.

Hmm, who told you about that day?

Dr. Walton,

who... also said that you'’re not a man to be trusted.

That you went to the House of Soul last night to kill Johnny Domino.

He said that you were responsible for the accident on stage.

And did he stop to explain how I might'’ve accomplished such a sinister act

while sitting there beside you?

No, he was in a hurry to leave.

You were actually in a hurry to leave as well. Why was that?

Why don'’t we cut to what you really want to know.

What if told you

that this super presence you call, "Night Man,"

is the personification of evil.

And with your help I might be able to identify him,

possibly even capture him in an act that would prove his guilt.

I'’m listening.All you gotta do is be there with the camera crew

to assure the world of this historical event.

Oh, you'’re pretty sure of yourself, aren'’t you?

For a woman who is having the story of a lifetime dumped in your lap,

you don'’t seem too pleased, Ms. Parks.

I don'’t know, I guess I've been in the hopes that this Night Man might be someone this city could

use right about now.

Someone heroic.

A climax I'’m offering for your story

will have plenty of heroics.

[KISSES]

[BELL DINGING]

Brave of you to agree to meet me, Doctor,

considering you consider me the devil incarnate.

I shall feel far safer if I can confront you.

Confrontation, I live for it.

This Night Man, for example,

his end will be extraordinary.

Joran,

I don'’t know how insane you were before you were struck by lightning.

But now, you definitely need to be locked up.

If you think Night Man is the one who'’ll put an end to me,

you'’ve backed the wrong soul.

I have not been here to get to know anything about this Night Man.

But I have been tracking you and your evil work all over the world.

And I intend to make an end of it.

Doctor, is that a firearm?

You forget that I work for the United States government.

I was hoping it wasn'’t gonna come to this.

As a federal agent,

I'’m now perfectly entitled to take you into custody for murder.

[GASPING]

Thank you.

[ENGINE STARTS]

I'’m gonna make one stop.

You'’ll make no attempt to leave the car.

I'’ve given the gun instructions to shoot if you so much as move.

You expect me to believe that?

Fire and miss.

As I told you, Doctor,

you'’ve aligned yourself with the wrong star-child.

[CAR APPROACHING]

What do you want?

Johnny Domino is the Night Man,

a sorry soul who uses add-on components to attempt superiority.

I don'’t know anything about this Night Man.

But Johnny'’s powers are extraordinary.

I'’m betting he keeps his toys in what he presumes to be a secure place.

Except when he goes out thinking they might be needed.

Hey, you can'’t do that.

[SCREAMS AND GROANS]

Yeah, thanks.

I'’ve got a bad feeling, Raleigh. There'’s no sign of Walton anywhere.

He'’s just disappeared.

Exclusive footage of an explosive, broad-daylight robbery.

This one make you feel any better?

JENNIFER: Pay close attention now, to the footage you'’re about to see.

Night Man got away with $50,000 in broad daylight,

proving once and for all that he'’s certainly no Robin hood.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

You seem to know just where to be, with your camera crew.

[PHONES RINGING IN THE BACKGROUND]

What is it you want?

You'’re being used.

The criminal you have on camera is not Night Man.

How do you know that?I know.

Well, that'’s very helpful.

Uh, care to add to this hunch?

Look, I'’ll prove it to you. You just have to trust me.

Why should I?

You'’ve never given me a thing about this Night Man,

and I know you know more than you'’re telling me.

Would you deny that?

Exactly. Look, I... I have a job to do,

and if you'’re not with me you'’re against me.

Now, I know you didn'’t come here to sell me on some vague hunch.

You want something. Something specific.

I want you to tell me

the next time you'’re tipped off to where Night Man'’s gonna be.

If I do that, then I'’ll lose my informant.

Joran?

How do you know that name?

I'’m warning you,

be careful.

I guess what we have here is a stalemate.

You tell me nothing, I tell you nothing.

Wait.

One question.

Do you believe that Night Man is the incarnation of evil?

No.

And in your heart,

where it counts,

neither do you.

RALEIGH: Dr. Walton is still missing and I think it'’s time to go to the police.

JOHNNY: No, no, he wants me and I want him.

Johnny, this whole thing is a trap, man.I know his weakness.

I can beat him.Come on, now.

All you'’ve gotta do is go out there and get yourself killed.

If he wanted me dead,

he would'’ve done it right away just like he did the others.

He has another agenda.

And what is that?

He wants a show.

He wants to defeat me, and in front of as many people as possible.

Right, right.

Maybe that can be to my advantage.

Oh, really?Yeah, yeah.

Well, tell me, Johnny, please, because I don'’t understand, I mean,

how does public humiliation lessen the pain of dying? '’Cause I don't know.

Please.He'’s telling me how to beat him, Raleigh.

How?Joran'’s fatal weakness,

his Achilles heel...

is his vanity.

And...

[KEYBOARD CLICKING]

[EXCLAIMS]So, Joran sees himself as a handsome man.

We can change that.

Yeah, okay. Right, make this image larger.

[DIGITAL BEEPING]

Here you go.

Now, what do you want?

Make his nose and chin bigger.

Big.[LAUGHING]

Okay.[KEYBOARD CLICKING]

Okay? All right?Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And his cheeks.

Little big.Man, I don'’t think that he'’s gonna like this.

That'’s the point.Oh, yeah?

JENNIFER: Who describes himself as the world'’s number one crime fighter at large,

now promises to deliver Night Man into police custody tomorrow night at midnight,

at a site to be revealed exclusively by this reporter.

We'’ll be there so you can be there.

You know what, that was a terrible photograph of me.

I... I look nothing like that.

Well, we'’ll get a flattering full-face shot during the showdown.

What showdown?

I haven'’t told you about any showdown yet.

Yeah, Johnny Domino did.

He said, "The real Night Man will be at the old world'’s fairground at midnight

to show the phony Night Man up for the impostor he is."

And did he explain how he could deliver the Night Man?

No, but then, neither did you.

Will your Night Man accept the challenge and be there?

Will your cameras be there to show the public who the real hero is?

You think the station would miss it?

Then, I can promise you that the real Night Man will be there.

[BANGS THE RECEIVER]

Oh, Night Man.

Night Man.

Come out, come out wherever you are.

Is that you, Joran?

This won'’t work.

The cameras will not be able to see a thing.

Neither will you.

And that should even the odds.

Night Man, where are you? Show yourself.

Up here.

This simply won'’t do.

Okay.

[BEEPS]

Is this better?

Well, I was hoping you'’d be in uniform.

Your wish is my command.

How do you like me now?

Too bad,

your face loses a little something in the fog.

Well, you too are gonna lose a little something in the fog.

Advantage, Night Man.

You see,

I know what you'’re gonna do before you do it.

Advantage, Mr. Chrome. It won'’t help you.

Wait, wait, I... I hear voices over here.

This way, Ms. Parks,

and make sure the camera crew turns on the lights.

JENNIFER: Do you see them? Let'’s try over there.

I believe you'’re about to go center stage, Mr. Superhero.

Keep talking, Joran.

Looks like I'’m gonna have to take you for a little ride.

You see, the bell was just simply to maneuver you

to stand dead center on a remotely detonated claymore land mine.

Okay, wait, wait. I hear their voices over here.

It'’s time to go.

Oh, did I forget to mention

I'’m not here?

Come on, hurry with that camera.

Neither am I.

[DIGITAL BEEPS]

RALEIGH: Scratch one holographic device.

I guess, for a good cause.

Will you get that camera off me?

It'’s those two we're...

we'’re here to shoot.

What have you done?

You look upset, Joran, what'’s gone wrong?

I'’ll settle with you soon enough.

End of the line, Joran.

For the good Doctor if you take one step towards my body.

It'’s your choice, Mr. Superhero.

Kill me,

or kill the doctor.

JORAN: How do you like that?

We'’ll meet again, Night Man,

after I'’ve tended to previous commitments elsewhere around the planet.

Don'’t stay with me.

You'’ve got him on the run, finish him.

Not a fair trade, Doc.

You who I think you are?

Come on. I got you loose...

[GROANS]Let'’s get out of here.

Well, I guessed the right star-child after all.

Not as bad as I thought.

Mm.

Mm...

That was a great dinner.

I still don'’t know why you insisted on paying.

You missed your story.

Well, actually, the big one'’s yet to come.

Exposing the true identity of Night Man.

I'’d love to hear sometime.

I gotta go, I'’m running late.

Actually, give me a couple of minutes.

Humor me.

What is it?

See, I was thinking, um,

it'’s either one thing or the other. See,

either you can'’t keep a promise

or you can'’t be at two places at the same time.

When did I make you a promise?

This afternoon on the phone.

See, in return for helping Night Man show up

at the same time as the phony, and without anything to show for it,

he promised that he'’d let my crew

get a shot of him leaping off a building.

You spoke to Night Man?

Actually, I thought I was speaking to you.
