<P> Paul wakes up in the morning and finds a group of FBI agents searching his house and sees the sheriff, who is uninjured . Paul also encounters the truck driver from the diner, Laura, and Jack, all wearing FBI badges . Jack explains that they have been "tracking" him for three years and plays a recording of Paul's explanation of what it is like to kill from the previous night . Paul complains that any evidence collected from his house is tainted because Jack and Laura had access to the house and could have planted it and that the tape recording is just his notes for a screenplay . Jack fears that they do not have enough evidence for a conviction when he notices an excavator with dirt on it . Looking through Paul's possessions, he finds a picture of Paul's wife in a yard that shows no artificial pond . Paul is impressed and attempts to make a deal with him to avoid the death penalty and have an ending living with the pain but Jack prefers "his own ending". The film ends with Paul waking up from what appeared to be a dream that happened to be the events of the film, and quickly attempts to type out the dream as a new script entitled Black Butterfly . </P> <Ul> <Li> Antonio Banderas as Paul Lopez </Li> <Li> Jonathan Rhys Meyers as Jack </Li> <Li> Piper Perabo as Laura Johnson </Li> <Li> Abel Ferrara as Pat </Li> <Li> Vincent Riotta as Lt.
