Col. Montford Is this your walking stick?
Larry Why, yes. That's the stick I killed the wolf with.
Larry, Bela the gypsy was killed last night. Your walking stick was found next to the body.
Larry You mean, Bela the fortune teller? But... I only saw a wolf.
You killed the wolf.
Larry Well, there's no crime in that is there?
The wolf was Bela.
Larry You think I don't know the difference between a wolf and a man?
Bela turned into a wolf and you killed him. A werewolf can only be killed by a silver bullet, or a silver knife... [looks down at Larry's walking stick] ...or a stick with a silver handle.
Larry You're insane! I tell you, I killed a wolf! A PLAIN, ORDINARY WOLF!
Whoever is bitten by a werewolf and lives becomes a werewolf himself.
Larry Ah, don't hand me that. You're just wasting your time.
The wolf bit you, didn't he?
Larry Yeah. Yeah, he did!
Larry Don't try to make me believe that I killed a man when I know that I killed a wolf!
Yes, yes. We're all a little bit confused.
Yes, that’s the sign of the werewolf.
Larry That’s just a legend though, isn’t it?
Yes, but like most legends, it must have some basis in fact. It’s probably an ancient explanation of the dual personality in each of us. How does it go? “Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms and Autumn moon is bright.”
Larry You wouldn't wanna run away with a murderer wouldja?
Gwen Oh Larry, you're not. You know you're not.
Larry I killed Bela. I killed Richardson. If I stay here any longer, you can't tell who'll be next.
You can't run away.
Larry That's it! That's what she said.
Who?
Larry The gypsy woman.
Gypsy woman? Now we're getting down to it. She's been filling your mind with this gibberish. This talk of werewolves and pentagrams. You're not a child Larry, you're a grown man and you believe in the superstitions of a Gypsy woman!
