eddie and kosalas are parked on an airport access road, watching private planes land and take off. eddie's car, a five-year old chevy, is wreckage. the quarter panels are rusted, the radio antenna is a coathanger, and when kosalas pushes a tape into the cassette player, the windshield wipers start moving. eddie is at the wheel wearing a sportscoat and sweater, scanning the sports page. kosalas is nervous and chatty, bubbling. he's still reading the records from the morgue. the cortege passes the unmarked car down the block from tony's house. eddie is watching. kosalas is with him. eddie rockets through the red lights leaning on his horn. eddie is on the radio, speeding west on diversey parkway.
