Mike and Anita in “Unfinished Business”

Mike

You mind if I ask? I really don't mean to pry, but—

Let me guess. You have another construction job you need my help on.

Mike

No, but if I do, you'll be the first person I call.

Okay, ask away.

Mike

You said you kept your husband's uniform. Was he on the job?

"On the job"? Oh, you mean the police. No, Alan was a Navy man. He was well out of the service when I lost him. I'm sorry, the group has heard my story over and over.

Mike

Well, that's what we're here for.

Well... Alan loved to hike. We even opened a camping supply store, I helped him with the mail-order side of it, and then... This was eight years ago. He went hiking in Gila National and never came back. They found our car, but they never found him. And I don't know if he slipped and fell or had a heart attack or met someone didn't like the way he looked... I don't know. And even after all these years, not knowing how he passed or where he is? I wish it didn't matter... but it does.
