What is the story of Bernie Tiede?
So this guy, he's rich. In fact, he's one of the richest men in this small town in Texas. But one day, he unfortunately dies. And his wife, she goes to the funeral, and her name's Marjorie. And there, at the funeral, Marjorie meets the assistant director of the funeral. This guy, Bernie. And Bernie is known to be the nicest guy in this small town.
Who is Marjorie and how did she meet Bernie?
While Marjorie, on the other hand, she's known to be kind of a jerk. In fact, Marjorie's such a jerk, she doesn't really have any friends. And Bernie, he kind of feels bad for her. So, he becomes friends with her. And he starts inviting her out to things. And suddenly, they're hanging out a ton. And soon enough, they become really close.
What kind of relationship did Bernie and Marjorie have?
Like, they're going out for nice dinners and seeing plays at the local theater. And Marjorie's got her husband's money, so she's the one paying for all this stuff. Und so geht diese Beziehung für etwa drei Jahre weiter. Und schlussendlich fragt Marjorie Bernie, seinen 24.000 Dollar pro Jahr Job bei der Geburtstagshalle zu verabschieden und zu ihrem Geschäftsführer zu kommen. Und sie beginnt, ihm einen ziemlich guten Betrag zu bezahlen, damit er mit ihr noch mehr Zeit verbringen kann. Aber Marjorie stoppt dort nicht. Sie kauft Bernie fast alles, was er will. Kleidung, Autos, eine Rolex. Viele kleine Flugzeuge, Flugerlehrer für diese Flugzeuge, plus sie gehen auf tolle Reisen zusammen.
How did Bernie use Marjorie's wealth?
Hongkong, Bangkok, Russland, Deutschland, England, Schottland, Wels, Ägypten, es ist verrückt. Jetzt, Bernie, er ist noch bekannt, der schönste Typ in der Stadt zu sein. Aber jetzt hat er Zugang zu Marjorie's Checkbook. So one day he decides, hey, I kind of want to share this wealth. Her wealth, of course. So he starts giving gifts to the local people in the town. He buys at least 10 cars for people who couldn't afford one. He buys a house for a local couple. He even gives away some scholarships to some students. All using Marjorie's money. Und die arme Marjorie hat keine Ahnung, dass er all das hinter ihr zurück tut. Und sie liebt ihn immer noch. Viel. Sie hat sein Foto überall auf der Stelle.
What led to the change in Marjorie's behavior?
Sie modifiziert sein Willen, um ihn als einzigartiger Anbieter zu machen. Ich meine, soweit sie sich interessiert, würde Bernie niemals falsch tun. Er würde sie niemals schaden. UNTIL... Als die Jahre übergehen, wird Marjorie immer mehr ein Arschloch. Und sie beginnt, Bernie ein Arschloch zu sein.
What was the turning point in Bernie and Marjorie's relationship?
Sie wird wirklich kontrollierend, und sie ist anstrengend, und sie macht ihn immer mit ihr aufmerksam, und sie wird wirklich wütend, wenn er zu spät ist, oder wenn Dinge hinter dem Schedule fallen. Und das geht für eine lange Zeit. Und schließlich hat Bernie genug. Und eines Tages, schnappt er einfach. It's in the morning and he goes over to Marjorie's mansion like he normally does. I guess he's there to drive her to the cleaners. And as they're leaving, she's walking ahead of him in the garage. And he quickly goes into a bathroom and he gets a rifle that he had placed in there earlier that day. And he goes back into the garage and he points that rifle at Marjorie's back while she's not looking.
And suddenly, blam, he shoots her in the back and she falls to the floor, but she's still breathing. So then, blam, blam, blam, Bernie shoots her three more times, unaliving her. And then he drags her body to another room and he wraps her in a sheet and he puts her in a deep freezer. And then, strangely, Bernie just continues on with his life, as if everything is completely normal, as if she's not dead, as if he didn't just murder her. Er ist immer noch in der Stadt, spendet alle ihre Geld auf sich selbst und andere Menschen. In der Tat, ich denke, er spendet fast 2 Millionen Dollar ihrer Geld.
