:53:01
Right
:53:02
They're not from the same hometown
:53:04
They went to different schools
:53:06
Right
:53:08
So if they were gonna meet
:53:10
they should have met here
:53:12
I think they could've met
:53:13
They could not
:53:15
He was an engineer
stationed outside of Moscow
:53:17
at the end of '41
:53:21
That's it
:53:23
They know each other
:53:25
They're war buddies
:53:26
That's pretty thin, Kenny

Real life usually is, Walter

They know each other, Jack

:53:37
Don't take it to court, but we've
got good circumstantial evidenct
:53:40
What's your instinct?

:54:37
