:26:02
Don't let Crawford bug you.
:26:03
He's a little soft around the edges,
but he's a good cop.

:26:07
Oh, leave that there.
It's all right.

:26:10
A little ambiance.
:26:17
Can I ask you
a personal question?

:26:19
Depends on the question.
:26:21
There's a rumor going around
that before you were in the bureau,

:26:25
that you were some kind of priest
or something.

:26:27
I was a seminary student. I didn't
make it as far as the priesthood.

:26:31
Still, that is some kind
of makeover. What happened?

:26:34
Found another way
to fight him.

:26:37
- You ready?
- Yeah.

:26:41
Fight who?
:26:43
Gentlemen, ladies.
:26:46
Listen up, please.
:26:50
Most of you have met
Special Agent John Travis.

:26:53
For those who haven't,
he's on loan to us...

:26:55
from the FBI Behavioral Sciences
Division at Quantico.

:26:58
Agent Travis's area of expertise
is ritual homicide...

:27:01
and occult-related crime.
:27:04
He was instrumental in breaking
the Santeria case last summer.

:27:07
No offense, but didn't that
case just end in an acquittal?

:27:09
[ Laughter ]
:27:10
That's right.
:27:14
The problem with prosecuting
occult crime...

:27:16
is the judicial concept
of reasonable doubt.

:27:20
The motives can be so bizarre,
so far beyond reason,

:27:23
that they're hard
for a jury to accept.

:27:26
That means we have to work
twice as hard to get a conviction.

:27:28
But our perp could just be
some run-of-the-mill psycho...

:27:31
who gets his stuff
off the back of a comic book.

:27:32
I don't think so.
:27:33
Whoever did this has a background
in classic occult mysticism.

:27:38
This symbol was used
in ceremonial sacrifice...

:27:40
as far back
as 16th century Europe.

:27:43
The tines on the trident
point left,

:27:45
signifying the left-hand path
of Satanists.

:27:49
It was a sign of a sect
of Luciferians...

:27:51
who took the fallen angel
mythology literally.

:27:54
Then you think
the perp's got motives...

:27:55
- besides thrill kills?
- Yes.

:27:58
The crimes were meant
to be against God, not men.
