No problems at work. 37 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,711 Widowed ten years ago.

A guy can live without a finger. 47 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,637 But a tongue... The victim is dead, Bletch. 48 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:16,549 We need your expertise on this, Frank. I guess that goes without saying. 49 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,434 - Have a good evening, ma'am. - Thank you. 50 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,631 "The bear never told the rabbit, the badger or the crow 51 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,553 that his honey was missing from the hollow tree." 52 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,551 "But he looked at them differently." 53 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,429 - Why? - We'll find out later. 54 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:42,593 - Were you expecting a package? - Yeah, files from Bletcher. 55 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,433 I'll look at it downstairs.

Have you read the pathology reports? 58 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,996 What strikes me is the examiner's prior conclusion 59 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,640 the parts were removed while the victims were alive. 60 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,553 It's possible the victim or killer weren't acquainted. 61 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:11,191 So the perpetrator?ยป been hard to catch. But the owners of the body parts? 62 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,590 Given the four years' activity, 63 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,639 we can infer the killer's been careful in disposing of the remains, 64 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:23,398 selecting victims whose disappearance wouldn't draw unusual attention. 65 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,357 Frank'? 66 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,470 - Dinner's on the table. - In a minute. 67 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,792 There's an unusual mindfulness associated with the violence. 68 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,633 The local ME could use an educated opinion. 69 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,997 I've got a call in to Cheryl Andrews.

The cuts aren't unusually forceful, just imprecise. 77 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,715 A few false starts, repetitive blade strokes. 78 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,679 - Frank? - We do have a pattern change. 79 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:18,199 - Unlikely to be intentional deviation. - So how do we account for it? 80 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,432 The victim died prematurely or the killer was interrupted. 81 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,750 The perpetrator may be getting lazy, 82 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,879 becoming more casual as his activities lose their novelty. 83 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:29,792 So it doesn't tell us much, then. 84 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:34,636 He's less concerned about being discovered, but no less dangerous. 85 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:40,990 There's nothing here to indicate that this is gonna stop. 86 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,436 A wet, raw night. 87 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,592 - What can I get ya? - Rain without, rain within. 88 00:09:45,680 --> 00:09:48,149 - A glass of water. - Really? 89 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:53,314 Be careful of the tone you take.

Sooner, perhaps. 104 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,951 - I will keep you in the world. - You're a lawyer, right? 105 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,670 No, Mr Bardale, I'm not. I'm a judge. 106 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,278 Sentence carried out contrary to just instructions of this court. 107 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:16,877 I had to be practical. It's hard to cut a guy's tongue out when he's still alive. 108 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,516 I meant to get him unsuspecting, 109 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,753 but he bled out in the parking lot and croaked before I got the tongue. 110 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,480 You acted as agent of this court while impaired. 111 00:11:29,560 --> 00:11:32,951 - One beer is all... - Remember I am who I am. 112 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,351 How was the corpse of the condemned disposed of? 113 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,319 - The same way as usual. - You've forgotten. 114 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,313 You feel you can lie as freely to me as to yourself. 115 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,471 They'll never find it. 116 00:11:46,560 --> 00:11:48,517 I had to hurry. 117 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,397 Carl Nearman, you've acted selfishly. 118 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,670 You've ignored justice and the procedures of this court. 119 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,559 I'm discharging you from the court's service. 120 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,677 (footsteps) 121 00:12:02,560 --> 00:12:04,551 Mr Bardale... 122 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,716 Stand and receive sentence. 123 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:35,115 Achilles!
