Special Agent

Jack Crawford.

FBI. May I come in?

The amount of detail is incredible.

Learned very early a scalpel cuts better points than a pencil sharpener.

I'm beginning to suspect you're investigating me, Agent Crawford.

No, no.

No, you were referred to me by Alana Bloom.

Most psychology departments are filled with personality deficients.

Doctor Bloom would be the exception.

Yes, she would. Yes, she would.

Have you told Jack Crawford?

Why not?
