ENOUGH。
〃He's not going to talk to you any more；〃 Harry said。 〃He's really mad； Norman。〃
And then the screen printed：
I WILL KILL YOU ALL。
Norman was sweating； he wiped his forehead； turned away from the words on the screen。
〃I don't think you can talk to this guy；〃 Beth said。 〃I don't think you can reason with him。〃
〃You shouldn't have made him angry；〃 Harry said。 He was almost pleading。 〃Why did you make him angry like that； Norman？〃
〃I had to tell him the truth。〃
＇＇282＇＇ 〃But you were so mean to him； and now he's angry。〃
〃It doesn't matter； angry or not；〃 Beth said。 〃Harry attacked us before； when he wasn't angry。〃
〃You mean Jerry；〃 Norman said to her。 〃Jerry attacked us。〃
〃Yes； right； Jerry。〃
〃That's a hell of a mistake to make； Beth；〃 Harry said。
〃You're right； Harry。 I'm sorry。〃
Harry was looking at her in an odd way。 Norman thought； Harry doesn't miss a trick； and he isn't going to let that one go by。
〃I don't know how you could make that confusion；〃 Harry said。
〃I know。 It was a slip of the tongue。 It was stupid of me。〃
〃I'll say。〃
〃I'm sorry；〃 Beth said。 〃Really I am。〃
〃Never mind；〃 Harry said。 〃It doesn't matter。〃
There was a sudden flatness in his manner； a plete indifference in his tone。 Norman thought： Uh…oh。
Harry yawned and stretched。 〃You know；〃 he said； 〃I'm suddenly very tired。 I think I'll take a nap now。〃
And he went off to the bunks。
1600 HOURS
〃We have to do something；〃 Beth said。 〃We can't talk him out of it。〃
〃You're right；〃 Norman said。 〃We can't。〃
Beth tapped the screen。 The words still glowed： I WILL KILL YOU ALL。
〃Do you think he means it？〃
