Next series of scenes open on a barren landscape with a dog running to a forlorn trailer. Inside the trailer, Martin Riggs smokes in bed, gets up to drink a beer for breakfast. He's unkempt, naked, and obviously disturbed. Third series of scenes, back to Murtaugh , who's casually told by his wife that a Mike Hunsaker has called. Old friend he served with in Viet Nam.
Scenes are brief, to the point, then over.
Next scenes, Roger at scene of suicide. He discovers to his horror that suicide is Amanda Hunsaker , daughter of old friend Mike Hunsaker . In terms of structure, one question is answered, who is the woman that killed herself. Others are now raised. Early in the story, questions are raised that suggest where the story itself is going, but also within scenes questions are raised and then answered a few scenes later.
