Bold Venture - Voodoo Vendetta

Slate and Saylor are enjoying sitting in the empty bar at Shannon's Place listening to King Moses sing. Slate says "How do you like that? We have a new neon sign with the biggest arrow in Havana, and no customers. King, go out make sure that arrow is pointed in the right direction". Saylor says "You better do it King, we're too close to the harbor to take chances. There'd be a lot of wet tourists if you...." Hearing footsteps, King says "Here comes a dry one". Slate says "Yeah, looks warm too". A lady walks up to them and says "I'm looking for Mr. Shannon". Slate says "I'm Slate Shannon, Miss uh...." She says "Mrs. Alice Ramsey. I've heard you have a boat for hire". Slate says "That's right, with me in it". Saylor says "I'm the cabin boy". Alice says "I'll give you 200 dollars to take us to Zapata swamps. My husband owns a tobacco plantation there. There'll be my husband, me, and Dr. Lynn Barton". Slate says "It sounds all right, doesn't it, Saylor?" She says "I don't know. Mrs. Ramsey looks like she hasn't finished talking yet". Alice says "There's only one thing more to say. My husband always wished to be buried on a hammock in Zapata". Saylor says "See, I told you to listen, Slate". Alice says "My husband's in a coffin. My husband's dead". Later, as Alice is returning to her hotel room, Lynn asks "Is that you, Alice?" She says "Yes. What are you doing in our room?" Lynn says "Your husband invited me. He got lonely waiting for you. He asked me to play cribbage with him, and I did". Alice says "His favorite game. A game for the old. Where is he?" Lynn says "Asleep in the next room. It was too much for him, the game, and being without you. He tires easily these days, doesn't he?" Alice says "That's a wife's observation, not a doctor's". Lynn says "You always refresh my reasons for adoring you. The way you keep calling me doctor when you know I was branded for malpractice". Alice says "Well, everything's arranged with Mr. Shannon, but I made a condition, though". Lynn asks "What was it?" Alice says "That my husband would be dead. There is a knife in the desk drawer. Lynn, would you get it for me, please?"
