Well, STOP IT.  No laughing.  Writing.
Jack:  I could kick your ass any day of the week.
Ennis:  Then the weeks where you live must have a No Fuckin' Way Day.

SPOILER

Oh my word. That chapter had everything.

Some hot lovin'. Interuptions (naturally). Some comedy (I always find angry sarcastic Ellery amusing), and then angst when Dupree revealed who was on the tape.

OK - a couple of questions.

Why on earth didn't Dupree just hang on until the following day to speak to Ellery - the tape wasn't going anywhere?

And, the million dollar question - will Ellery watch the tape. I mean, he doesn't have to does he? Not for the investgation or anything.

As always, beathlessly awaiting...

Karen

Very good question, Karen...

Dupree felt pressured by the boys at the Red Stallion, and uneasy about having seen Beagle on the tape, and felt like he had to "unload", to come clean with Ellery, and even more importantly, to get the tape out of his hands and into Ellery's hands because he felt like he was holding onto a ticking bomb.

let's hope that that's not what the video will turn out to be.

You're right, guess he just wanted to get shot of it. It was getting a bit too hot to handle.

I notice that you didn't answer my 2nd question.  ;)  Not that I expected you give anything away. Oh no - just wondering I was.

Mmmm... there's a few ways that this could go. Common sense would tell you that watching a former love having sex with someone else is a far from good idea. However, human nature being what it is... well...
