Cat Hudson-Drake: [after being exposed as a conspirator in the murder] Bob was in the office workin' on the galleys. Hank had the key. I gave it to him. He got into the house and went into the office through the door from the foyer. Bob asked him to leave. Hank argued with him. And then Hank took the rifle from the rack. After he struck Bob, he took the gold medallion from the desk and then opened a desk drawer. He knew exactly what to take from the files in the desk. After that, he let himself out the French doors and broke the glass from the outside to make it look like some burglar had forced his way in. He made me help him. There wasn't anything I could do. That's not true. I was afraid. I was afraid just like the rest of them. Afraid that Bob was gonna spoil everything. Hank knew that I spent a couple hours with Adam in a motel off an interstate. Hell, Hank knew everything that went on around here. He took me aside and said that we needed to get rid of Bob before he smeared my grandfather's reputation. But he needed someone to pin it on. Otherwise, everybody would know it was one of us. He said he needed me to help him frame Adam. Look, I just wanted that part in the movie. Don't you understand? The lead in the biggest movie of the year. I mean, no more R-rated cheapies, no more crummy television movies. Was that so wrong?
