Jack

Oh, Jack

Thank God you’re here

Jack

There’s someone else in the hotel with us

There’s a crazy woman in one of the rooms

She tried to strangle Danny

Are you out of your fucking mind

No

It’s the truth

Really

I swear it

Danny told me

He went up into one of the bedrooms

The door was open, and he saw this crazy woman in the bathtub

She tried to strangle him

Which room was it

From Channel 10 in Miami

this is Newswatch with Glenn Rinker

Ann Bishop, and the award-winning Newswatch team

Good evening I’m Glenn Rinker, Newswatch Ten

While Miami continues to swelter in a record winter heat wave bringing temperatures to the mid the 90s

the Central and Rocky Mountain states are buried in snow

In Colorado, 10 inches of snow has fallen in just a few hours tonight

Travel in the Rockies is almost impossible

Airports are shut down, stranding thousands of passengers

Highways are blocked by snowdrifts

Railroad tracks are frozen

Officials in Colorado tell Newswatch at least three have been killed by exposure to freezing winds

The governor of Colorado is expected tomorrow to declare a weather emergency

The National Guard might be called out to clear streets and roads

Weather forecasters predict more snow and heavy winds tonight and tomorrow with temperatures dropping well below zero

Back here in south Florida, we’ve got the opposite problem

The heat and humidity are supposed to climb

Local beaches should be jammed

Our weather expert, Walter Cronice will have the local forecast later on Newswatch

We’re sorry Your call cannot be completed as dialed

If you need assistance, please call the operator

Jack

Yes, it’s me

Thank God

Did you find anything

No

Nothing at all

I didn’t see one goddamn thing

You went into the room

Danny said To 237

Yes, l did

And you didn’t see anything at all

Absolutely nothing

How is he

He’s still asleep

Good

I’m sure he’ll be himself again in the morning

Are you sure it was the right room

I mean, maybe Danny made a mistake

He must have gone in that room

The door was open, the lights were on

I just don’t understand it

What about those bruises on his neck

Somebody did that to him

I think

he did it to himself

No

That’s not possible

Wendy

once you rule out his version of what happened there is no other explanation

Is there

It wouldn’t be that different from the episode that he had before we came up here

Would it

Oh, Jack

Whatever the explanation is

l think we have to get Danny out of here

Get him out of here

Yes

You mean just leave the hotel

Yes

It is so fucking typical of you to create a problem like this

when l finally have a chance to accomplish something

When I’m really into my work

I could really write my own ticket if l went back now to Bolder now, couldn’t l

Shoveling out driveways, work in a car wash

Any of that appeal to you

Jack

Wendy, l have let you fuck up my life so far but l am not going to let you fuck this up

Good evening

Forest Service

Hello, my name is Dick Hallorann

I’m the head chef up at the Overlook Hotel

Good evening, Mr Hallorann

What can l do for you

Sir, I’ve been trying to make an urgent phone call up there

but the operator said that the phone lines are down

Yeah, I’m afraid a lot of lines around here are down due to the storm

Well, look sir I hate to put you through any trouble but there’s a family up there all by themselves with a young kid

And with the storm and everything

I’d sure appreciate it if you’d give them a call on your radio just to see if everything’s okay

I’ll be glad to do that

Why don’t you call me back in about 20 minutes

Thank you very much

I’ll do that

All right, sir

Good evening, Mr Torrance

Good evening

Hi, Lloyd

Been away, but now I’m back

Good evening, Mr Torrance

It’s good to see you

It’s good to be back, Lloyd

What’ll it be, sir

Hair of the dog that bit me

Bourbon on the rocks

That’ll do her

No charge to you, Mr Torrance

No charge

Your money’s no good here

Orders from the house

Orders from the house

Drink up, Mr Torrance

I’m the kind of man who likes to know who’s buying their drinks, LIoyd

It’s not a matter that concerns you, Mr Torrance

At least, not at this point

Anything you say, Lloyd

Anything you say

Oh Oh, dear

Oh, dear

I’m so sorry, sir

Oh, dear, dear

I’ve made an awful mess of your jacket, sir

Oh, that’s all right

I’ve got plenty of jackets

I’m afraid it’s advocat, sir

It tends to stain

Advocat, is it

Yes, sir

Look I think the best thing is to come along to the gentlemen’s room, sir

and we’ll get some water to it, sir

Looks as thought you might have got a spot of it on yourself there

Jeevesy old boy

That doesn’t matter, sir

You’re the important one

Awfully nice of you to say

Of course, l intended to change my jacket this evening

before the fish and goose soiree

Very wise, sir

Very wise

Here I’ll just hold this for you there, Jeevesy

Thank you, sir

Thank you

Now let’s see if we can improve this with a little water, sir

All right

I’ll just set my bourbon and advocat down, right there

Won’t keep you a moment, sir

Fine

What do they call you, Jeevesy
