:54:03
- Was it a cattle ranch?
- Sheep and horses.
:54:07
- How long did you live there?
- Two months.
:54:11
- Why so briefly?
- I ran away.
:54:14
Why, Clarice? Did the rancher
make you perform fellatio?
:54:18
Did he sodomise you?
:54:20
No. He was a very decent man.
:54:25
Quid pro quo, Doctor.
:54:29
Billy is not a real transsexual.
But he thinks he is. He tries to be.
:54:33
He's tried to be a lot of things, I expect.
:54:36
You said that I was very close to the way
we would catch him. What did you mean?
:54:40
There are three centers for
transsexual surgery: Johns Hopkins,
:54:44
the University of Minnesota
and Columbus Medical Centre.
:54:47
I wouldn't be surprised if Billy had applied
for sex reassignment at all of them
:54:52
and been rejected.
:54:54
On what basis would they reject him?
:54:57
Look for severe childhood disturbances
associated with violence.
:55:01
Our Billy wasn't born a criminal, Clarice.
:55:04
He was made one through years
of systematic abuse.
:55:09
Billy hates his own identity, you see,
:55:12
and he thinks
that makes him a transsexual.
:55:15
But his pathology is
a thousand times more savage
:55:19
and more terrifying.
:55:24
It rubs the lotion on its skin.
It does this whenever it's told.
:55:28
Mister, my family'll pay cash. Whatever
ransom you're asking for, they'll pay it.
:55:34
It rubs the lotion on its skin
or else it gets the hose again.
:55:40
Yes, it will, Precious. It will get the hose.
:55:44
OK, OK.
:55:52
Mister, if you let me go,
I won't press charges, I promise.
:55:58
See, my mom is a real important woman.
