Super (2010)
“Jack Pryor asked.
“Paul Pollack. I am Mr. Wheeler’s assistant.”
“How did you know to meet this train with a hearse?”
“Mr. Wheeler told me to do so. I do what Mr. Wheeler says.”
“Did he tell you he was going to be the deceased?”
Pollack, clearly not used to being talked to in such a direct and confrontational manner, looked away. He had to think about this for a second.
“No, he did not,” he said finally.
“But you knew he would be the dead man?”
Pollack glanced down at the ground this time before... speaking. “I knew he was very sick and that he was in a lot of pain.”
“You knew that he was going to die on the Super Chief sometime between seven o’clock last night when it left Chicago and this morning when it arrived at Bethel?”
“I didn’t say that, sir.”
“Did Mr. Wheeler have medicine with him—pills of some kind—that would kill him?”
“Not that I know of.”
“Would you have known if he had?”
“Who knows what anyone would know?”
Jack Pryor was losing patience.MoreLess
