betty had this gift, you see. she was so sweet and eager to please. a bit dumb, maybe. but she'd do anything to be liked, become whatever you wanted her to be. she'd walk like you, or talk like you. but she wasn't. she was still her. sure. she had this viewfinder and showed it around to all the guys. said it was from the director. a co-starring role. once she said it was for fox. another time paramount. i think she was just fibbing. you know, for the boys. don and harold--sitting outside. she dated both of 'em once or twice. other than that. i just. didn't really pay attention to who she was with. well. right before she moved out. l saw her and linda. yeah. her and linda martin--talking to this older woman up on the boulevard. she had a man's suit and short hair like a man. only that one time. that's her. god. she's only fifteen. this morning. i told her i'd called the police to come talk to us about betty. was that the wrong thing to do?
