Complete story — includes the ending
In this unique tale, Lou Spinelli, the corpse of a former criminal-turned legitimate businessman who, thanks to plastic surgery, bears a striking resemblance to Humphrey Bogart (portrayed by Bogart himself through archive footage and voiced by Bogart impersonator Robert Sacchi ), reminisces on the set of circumstances that left him dead, but still able to see, hear, and feel everything around him. The story, shown entirely from Lou's point of view, involves a plot of greed, lust, and murder involving his best friend, Oscar Charles ( John Lithgow ), his ex-wife, Betty ( Isabella Rossellini ), and his lover, Erica ( Sherilyn Fenn ), in a morbid homage to classic film noir. Note: There are numerous references to Bogart's films and career, especially his famous line "Here's looking at you, kid", throughout the episode.
