What kind of cheese is that?
Sharp cheddar?

1:30:08
You should know by now with my stomach
I can't take sharp cheddar.

1:30:10
Goddamn it!
Will you shape up?

1:30:16
Sooner or later there's a pattern.
Sooner or later everything falls into place.

1:30:19
I believe that.
If I didn't believe that...

1:30:21
I wouldn't wanna wake up tomorrow
morning and see the sunrise.

1:30:24
Goddamn it! Is this what I asked for?
I want some cooperation!

1:30:29

1:30:32
Every crime has its own pattern
of logic. Everything has an order.

1:30:36
If we cannot find that order,
it's not because it doesn't exist...

1:30:39
but because we have incorrectly examined
s-s-some vital piece of evidence.

1:30:44
Let us examine the evidence.
Number one:

1:30:47
In the past six months, there have been
345 homicides committed in this city.

1:30:51
The victims have ranged
various-s-sly in age...

1:30:54
sex, social status and-and color.
1:30:57
Number two: In none of these homicides
have we been able to find the motive.

1:31:01
Number three: Consequently,
all 345 homicides remain unsolved.

1:31:05
So much for the evidence.
A subtle pattern begins to emerge.

1:31:08
What is this pattern?
What is it that these 345 homicides...

1:31:13
have-have-have, uh-uh-uh...
have in common?

1:31:16
They... They have in common three things:
1:31:18
A: They have nothing in common:
1:31:21
B: They have no motive:
1:31:23
And C: They remain unsolved.
1:31:30
Now when a case does not gel, it is often not
because we lack the necessary facts...

1:31:35
but because we've observed
those facts incorrectly.

1:31:38
Following normal routine,
we look for a cause.

1:31:41
Had we looked for effect, we would
have found our answer that much sooner.

1:31:43
What is the effect
of 345 unsolved homicides?

1:31:47
The effect is...
[Cackling]

1:31:51
Lack of faith
in law enforcement personnel.

1:31:57
That is our motive.
The pattern is complete.
