Starling��

Crawford wants to see you
in his office

Thank you, sir

��Clarice.
��Hey

Looking for Crawford?

He should be back soon.
Why don't you wait in his office?

Starling

��Clarice M. Good morning.
��Morning, Mr. Crawford

Sorry to pull you off the course
at such short notice

Your instructors say you're
in the top quarter of your class

I hope so. They haven't posted
any grades yet

A job's come up,
and I thought about you

Not a job, really,
more of an interesting errand

Sit down

Yes, sir

I remember you from my seminar at UVA

You grilled me on the bureau's civil
rights record in the Hoover years

I gave you an A

A minus, sir

Double major, psych and criminology,
graduated magna

Summer internships
at the Reitzinger Clinic

It says when you graduate you want
to work for me in Behavioral Science

Yes, very much, sir. Very much

We're interviewing
all serial killers in custody��

��for a psycho��behavioral profile

It could be a real help
in unsolved cases

Most of them have been happy
to talk to us

Do you spook easily, Starling?

Not yet, sir

The one we want most refuses to help

I want you to go after him
in the asylum

Who's the subject?

��The psychiatrist, Hannibal Lecter.
����Hannibal the Cannibal.��

I don't expect him to talk to you��

��but I have to be able
to say we tried

If he won't cooperate,
I want straight reporting

How's he look? How's his cell?

Is he sketching, drawing?
If he is, what's he sketching?

Here's a dossier on Lecter��

��copy of our questionnaire
and an I.D. for you

Have your memo on my desk
by 0800, Wednesday

Okay

Excuse me, sir, but why the urgency?

Lecter's been in prison for years

Is there some connection
between him and Buffalo Bill?

I wish there were. Now, I want
your full attention, Starling

��Yes, sir.
��Be very careful with Hannibal Lecter

Dr. Chilton at the asylum will go over
all the physical procedures used

Do not deviate from them
for any reason whatsoever

You're to tell him nothing personal

You don't want Hannibal Lecter
inside your head

Just do your job
but never forget what he is

And what is that?

Oh, he's a monster, a pure psychopath

It's so rare to capture one alive

From a research point of view,
Lecter is our most prized asset

We get a lot of detectives here��

��but I must say I can't remember
one as attractive

Will you be in Baltimore overnight?

Because this can be quite a fun town
if you have the right guide

I'm sure this is a great town,
Dr. Chilton��

��but I must talk to Dr. Lecter
and report back this afternoon

I see. Well, let's make
this quick, then

We've tried to study him, but he's too
sophisticated for the standard tests

Oh, my, does he hate us

He thinks I'm his nemesis

Crawford's very clever,
isn't he, using you?

-What do you mean, sir?
��Pretty young woman to turn him on

I don't believe Lecter's seen a woman
in eight years, and you are his taste

So to speak

I graduated from UVA.
It's not a charm school

Good. Then you should be able
to remember the rules

Do not touch or approach the glass.
Pass him nothing but soft paper

No pencils or pens, no staples
or paper clips in his paper

Use the sliding food carrier,
no exceptions

If he passes you anything,
do not accept

��Do you understand?
��Yes, I understand, sir

I'm going to show you why we insist
on such precautions

On the afternoon of July 8, 1981 ��

��he complained of chest pains
and was taken to the dispensary

His mouthpiece was removed for an EKG

When the nurse leaned over him,
he did this to her

The doctors managed to reset her jaw,
more or less. Save one of her eyes

His pulse never got above 85,
even when he ate her tongue

��I keep him in here.
��Dr. Chilton

If Lecter feels
that you're his enemy, then��.

Maybe we'll have more luck
if I go by myself

What do you think?

You might have suggested this
in my office and saved me the time

Yes, sir, but then I would have missed
the pleasure of your company, sir

When she's finished, bring her out

Hi, I'm Barney. He told you,
don't get near the glass?

Yes, he did. Clarice Starling

Nice to meet you. You can hang
your coat there if you like

Okay. Thank you, I will

He's past the others.
The last cell

You keep to the right

��I put out a chair for you.
��Yes, that's very good, thank you

I'll be watching. You'll do fine

I can smell your cunt

Good morning

Dr. Lecter, my name is Clarice
Starling. May I speak with you?

You're one of Jack Crawford's,
aren't you?

I am, yes

May I see your credentials?

Certainly

Closer, please

Closer

That expires in one week.
You're not real FBI, are you?

I'm still in training at the academy

��Jack Crawford sent a trainee to me?
��Yes, I'm a student

I'm here to learn from you

Maybe you can decide
if I'm qualified enough to do that

That is rather slippery of you,
Agent Starling

Sit. Please

Now then, tell me.
What did Miggs say to you?

��Multiple Miggs�� in the next cell

He hissed at you. What did he say?

He said, ��I can smell your cunt.��

I see

I myself cannot

You use Evyan skin cream

And sometimes you wear L'Air du Temps

But not today

Did you do all these drawings?

That is the Duomo, seen
from the Belvedere

Do you know Florence?

All that detail just from memory, sir?

Memory, Agent Starling, is what
I have instead of a view

Perhaps you'd care to lend us
your view on this questionnaire, sir

No, no, no. You were doing fine

You had been courteous
and receptive to courtesy

You had established trust with
the embarrassing truth about Miggs

And now this ham��handed segue
into your questionnaire

It won't do

I'm only asking you to look at this.
Either you will or you won't

Yeah. Jack Crawford must be
very busy indeed��

��if he's recruiting help
from the student body

Busy hunting that new one,
Buffalo Bill

What a naughty boy he is

Do you know why he's called
��Buffalo Bill��?

Please tell me.
The newspapers won't say

It started as a joke
in Kansas City Homicide

They said, ��This one likes
to skin his humps.��

Why do you think��

��he removes their skins,
Agent Starling?

Thrill me with your acumen

It excites him

Most serial killers keep
trophies from their victims

��I didn't.
��No

No, you ate yours

You send that through now

You think you can dissect
me with this blunt little tool?

No�� I thought
that your knowledge����

You're so ambitious, aren't you?

You know what you look like, with
your good bag and your cheap shoes?

You look like a rube

A well��scrubbed, hustling rube
with a little taste

Nutrition has given you
some length of bone��

��but you're not more than one
generation from white trash��

��are you, Agent Starling?

The accent you've tried
so desperately to shed��

��pure West Virginia

Is your father a coal miner?

Does he stink of the lamp?

I know how quickly the boys found you,
all those tedious, sticky fumblings��

��in the back seats of cars,
while you dreamed of getting out

Getting anywhere

Getting all the way to the FBI

You see a lot, doctor

But are you strong enough
to point that��

��high��powered
perception at yourself?

What about it?

Why don't you look at yourself
and write down what you see?

Or maybe you're afraid to

A census taker once tried to test me

I ate his liver
with some fava beans��

��and a nice Chianti

You fly back to school now,
little Starling

Fly, fly, fly

I bit my wrist��

��so I could die

Look at the blood��

Gotcha

Miggs�� You stupid fuck��

Agent Starling�� Come back��
Agent Starling�� Agent Starling��

I would not have had that happen.
Discourtesy is ugly to me

��Then do this test��
��No, but I will make you happy

��I'll give you a chance at your love.
-What?

Advancement. Listen. Look deep
within yourself, Clarice Starling

Go seek out Miss Mofet,
an old patient of mine. M��O��F��E��T

I don't think Miggs could
manage again so soon��

��even though he is crazy.
Go now��

Hi, Bill

��Daddy��
��Hey, Clarice

��Did you get any bad guys, Daddy?
��No, angel. They all got away

Ah, shoot

FBI�� Hands up�� Don't move��

Turn around. Hands behind your back.
Thumbs up

You're dead, Starling

Johnson, good entry, good command.
Starling, where's your danger area?

��In the corner.
��Did you check it?

��No, sir.
��That's why you're dead

3��1 ��0��9?

Breaking doors or windows
to enter or exit

Rule 404?

Clarice, phone. It's the guru

Crawford? Thanks, Ardelia

��Starling?
-sir

Miggs is dead

Dead?

How?

The orderly heard Lecter whispering
to him all afternoon

They found him at bed check.
He'd swallowed his tongue

Starling?

Yeah. I'm still here, sir. I just����

I don't know how to feel about this

You don't have to feel any way.
Lecter did it to amuse himself

Look, I know it got ugly today��

��but you mentioned a name,
��Mofet.�� Any follow��up on her?

He destroyed most of his patients'
histories prior to capture��

��so there's no record
of anyone named Mofet

But I thought the ��yourself�� reference
was too hokey for Lecter��

��so I figured he's from Baltimore,
and I looked in the phone book

And there's a
��Your Self�� storage facility��

��right outside
of downtown Baltimore, sir

Unit 31 was leased��

��for 10 years, prepaid in full

The contract was in the name��

��of a Miss Hester Mofet

So nobody's been
in here since 1980?

Not to my knowledge

Privacy is a great concern
to my customers

Yes, I won't disturb anything,
I promise

I'll be out of here
before you know it

��May I help you?
��Yes, actually

Here

��It's stuck.
-We could return tomorrow with my son

What about him?

I would ask my driver to help you,
but he detests physical labor

Right

You stay here.
I'll be back in one minute

It's stuck. Will you hand me
that flashlight?

If this door should fall down��

��or anything else��

��this is the number
for our Baltimore office

They know that you're with me

��Call them if anything should happen.
��Yes, Miss Starling

Clarice. Here, they're waiting
for you

Watch your step

Hester Mofet. It's an anagram,
isn't it, doctor?

Hester Mofet�� ��The rest of me��?

��Miss The Rest Of Me,�� meaning
that you rented that garage?

Thank you

Your bleeding has stopped

How did��?

It's nothing

It's just a scratch

Dr. Lecter, whose head
is in that bottle?

Why don't you ask me
about Buffalo Bill?

Do you know something about him?

I might if I saw the case file.
You could get that for me

Let's talk about Miss Mofet.
You wanted me to find him

His real name is Benjamin Raspail.
A former patient of mine��

��whose romantic attachments
ran to, shall we say, the exotic

I did not kill him, merely tucked
him away, very much as I found him��

��after he'd missed
three appointments

If you didn't kill him, who did?

Who can say?
Best thing for him, really

His therapy was going nowhere

His dress, makeup��.

Raspail was a transvestite?

In life? Oh, no.
Garden variety manic��depressive

Tedious, very tedious

I now think of him as an experiment

A fledgling killer's first effort
at transformation

How did you feel when you saw him,
Clarice?

Scared at first, then��

��exhilarated

Jack Crawford is helping your career,
isn't he?

Apparently, he likes you
and you like him too

I never thought about it

Do you think Jack Crawford
wants you, sexually?

He is much older, but do you think
he visualizes scenarios, exchanges?

Fucking you?

That doesn't interest me. It's the
sort of thing that Miggs would say

Not anymore

Thank you, Barney

What happened to your drawings?

Punishment, you see, for Miggs.
Just like that gospel program

When you leave, they'll turn
the volume way up

Dr. Chilton does enjoy
his petty torments

What did you mean
by ��transformation,�� doctor?

I've been in this room
for eight years now, Clarice

I know they will never
ever let me out while I'm alive

What I want is a view

I want a window where I can see a tree
or even water

I want to be in a federal institution
far away from Dr. Chilton

What did you mean
by ��fledgling killer��?

Are you saying he's killed again?

I'm offering you a psychological
profile on Buffalo Bill��

��based on the case evidence

I'll help you catch him, Clarice

You know who he is, don't you?

Tell me who decapitated
your patient, doctor

All good things to those who wait

I've waited, Clarice. But how long
can you and old Jackie��boy wait?

Our little Billy must already be
searching for that next special lady

Hey, little cheeper

I'll be right there

Jeez��

Can I help you with that?

Would you?

Sure

Thank you

That's all right. You look
kind of handicapped

Yeah. I got it this far, I just can't
get it up in the truck by myself

Here, grab this. Up��

Okay

Just set it down. That's good

Get in the truck. I want to
push it all the way up

I really appreciate this.
Thank you

Just go all the way back

Okay. Is this good?

Yeah, that's good

��That's great.
��Okay

Say, are you
about a size 14?

Sorry?

Good

Oh, good. Good

Holds!

Ones��

Starling��

Outside. Let's go

Cindy, in the ring for Starling.
Let's go��

Pack your field gear

��You're going with Crawford.
-Where?

Found a girl's body
in West Virginia

Been in the water a week.
Looks like Buffalo Bill

Keeps them alive for three days.
We don't know why

No evidence of rape or
physical abuse prior to death

All the mutilation you see
there is postmortem

Okay, three days��

��then he shoots them, skins them
and dumps them

Each body in a different river

The water leaves us no trace
evidence of any kind

That's Fredrica Bimmel, the first one

Her body was the only one he
weighted down

So actually, she was
the third girl found

After her, he got lazy

Okay, let's see

Circles where the girls were abducted.
Arrows where their bodies were found

This new one today washed up here.
Elk River, West Virginia

Look at him, Starling.
Tell me what you see

Well, he's a white male

Serial killers tend to hunt
within their own ethnic groups

He's not a drifter. He's got his
own house, not an apartment

-Why?
-What he does with them takes privacy

He's in his 30s or 40s.
He's got real physical strength

Combined with an older man's
self��control. He's cautious, precise

And he's never impulsive.
He'll never stop

Why not?

He's got a real taste for it now,
and he's getting better at his work

Not bad, Starling. Questions?

Yes, sir

You haven't mentioned anything about
the information in my report��

��or Dr. Lecter's offer, sir

I'm considering it

That's why you sent me
in there, isn't it?

To get his help on Buffalo Bill, sir?

Well, if that was the case, then��

��I just wish I was in on it,
that's all

If I'd sent you in there with a real
agenda, Lecter would have known it

He would have toyed with you,
then turned to stone

Excuse me, Sheriff Perkins?

These are the FBI people

Sheriff Perkins, Jack Crawford, FBI.
Special Agent Terry, Agent Starling

We appreciate being invited
to your jurisdiction

Somebody from the state attorney's
office called you

We'll extend you every courtesy,
but right now����

Sheriff��

��this type of sex crime has aspects
I'd just as soon discuss in private

Know what I mean?

Oscar, fetch Dr. Akin
from the chapel

We're back here

Tell Lamar to come on when
he's finished playing his music

Yeah, we'll be sending in a minute

It's working

I need a six-way link up.
Chicago, Detroit����

What? What?

Excuse me

Excuse me, officers and gentlemen.
Listen here, now

There's things we need to do
for her

Y'all brought her this far, and her
folks would thank you if they could��

��for your kindness
and your sensitivity

Please, go on now,
and let us take care of her

Go on, now

Thank you

Thank you

Okay, good

Yeah, that's right. Elk River.
Stand by for transmission

Ray

Doctor, Lamar.
Let's take a look at her

Jesus��.

Okay, Starling

Star��shaped contact entrance
wound over the sternum

A muzzle stamp at the top

-Wrongful death.
-Wrongful death

She'll have to go to the state
pathologist's at Claxton

Well, I better get back
to that service

Lamar will help you

Lord Almighty

What else do you see, Starling?

Well, she's not local

Her ears are pierced three times
and there's��

��glitter nail polish.
It looks like town to me

Two of her fingernails
are broken off��

��and there's dirt or grit
under them

It looks like she's tried to claw her
way through something

Ray, get pictures of her teeth.
We'll fax them to Missing Persons

Right

Let's do another

She's got something in her throat

When a body comes out
of the water��

��lots of times there's
leaves and things in the mouth

What is that?

Some kind of seedpod?

No, sir. That's a bug cocoon

There's no way that could get
way down in there

Not unless somebody
shoved it in there

She'll be easier to print
when we turn her

Lamar, give me a hand?

Yes, sir, I will

Oh, Jack.
What do you make of these?

Different configuration than
the other victims. Get close��ups

Victim's skin removed��

��in two diamond��shaped sections
above the buttocks

Exit wound level with the second
or third thoracic vertebrae��

��approximatelysix inches from
the right shoulder blade

Starling��

��when I told that sheriff we
shouldn't talk in front of a woman��

��that burned you, didn't it?

It was just smoke, Starling.
I had to get rid of him

It matters, Mr. Crawford

Cops look at you to see how to act

It matters

Point taken

Ligature marks found around wrists��

��not around the ankles

This would indicate that
the skinning was postmortem

Time, Pilch. My move

��No fair�� You lured him with produce.
��Tough noogies. It's still my turn

Nice and slow, baby

If the beetle moves one of your men,
does that still count?

Of course it counts. How do you play?

Agent Starling?

Where the heck did this come from?

It's practically mush

It was found in a murder victim.
The body was in the Elk River

It's Buffalo Bill, isn't it?

I can't tell you any more

We heard it on the radio

You mean this is a clue
from a real murder case? Cool��

Just ignore him. He's not a Ph.D

Sphingid Ceratomia, maybe����

Boy, he's a big sucker

Okay��

��let's check morphology

What do you do when you're not
detecting, Agent Starling?

Try to be a student, Dr. Pilcher

You ever go out for
cheeseburgers and beer?

The amusing house wine?

Are you hitting on me, doctor?

��Yes.
��Gotcha��

What do you got?

Agent Starling,
meet Mr. Acherontia Styx

Weird

Better known to his friends
as the Death's��head moth

Where does it come from?

That's what's strange.
They only live in Asia

They're specially raised from
imported eggs

Somebody grew this guy.
Fed him honey and nightshade

Kept him warm

Somebody loved him

Where are you?��

Let me out of here��

Hey��

Please help me��

Help me, please��

Why won't you answer me?�� Please��

-Good morning. I'm Donna Ferucchi.
-I'm Gene Cassel with sports

And I'm Tim Langhorn.
Ourtop story this morning:

Catherine Martin, the 25-year-old
daughter of Senator Ruth Martin��

��listed as a missing person��

��is believed to have been kidnapped
by the killer known as ��Buffalo Bill.��

Memphis police say the missing girl's
blouse has been identified��

��sliced up the back, in what has
become a kind of grim calling card

Young Catherine is the only daughter
of U.S. Senator Ruth Martin��

��the Republican senator
from Tennessee

And while her kidnapping is not
considered politically motivated��

��ithas stirred the government
to its highest levels

Reached for comment on the ski
slopes of Vermont��

��the president himself said to be,
and I quote, ��intensely concerned.��

just moments ago, Senator Martin
taped this dramatic personal plea:

I'm speaking, now, to the person
holding my daughter

Catherine is very gentle and kind

Talk to her and you'll see

You have the power.
You are in charge

I know you can feel love
and compassion

You have a wonderful chance
to show the whole world��

��that you can be merciful,
as well as strong

That you're big enough
to treat Catherine better��

��than the world has treated you

You have that power

Please. My daughter is Catherine

Boy, that's smart

Jesus, that's really smart

She keeps repeating the name

If he sees Catherine as a person, not
an object, it's harder to tear her up

Please, release my little girl

What you're doing, Ms. Starling,
is coming into my hospital��

��and refusing to share information
with me for the third time

Sir, I told you this is just
a routine follow��up on the Raspail����

He is my patient. I have rights

I understand that

Look, I am not just some turnkey,
Miss Starling

This is the number for
the U.S. Attorney

Please, either discuss it with him
or let me do my job, you understand?

If your profile helps us catch
Buffalo Bill��

��in time to save Catherine Martin��

��the senator promises you
a transfer to the VA Hospital��

��at Oneida Park, New York,
with a view of the woods nearby

Maximum security still applies,
of course

You'd have reasonable access to books

Best of all, though��

��one week of the year, you get
to leave the hospital��

��and go here��

Plum Island

Every day of that week,
you may walk on the beach

You may swim in the ocean
for up to one hour��

��under SWAT team surveillance,
of course

And there you have it

A copy of the Buffalo Bill case file

A copy of the senator's offer

This offer is non��negotiable
and final

Catherine Martin dies,
you get nothing

Plum Island Animal Disease
Research Center

Sounds charming

That's only part of the island.
There's a very nice beach

Terns nest there.
There's beautiful����

Terns?

If I help you, Clarice, it will be
��turns�� with us too

Quid pro quo. I tell you things,
you tell me things

Not about this case, though.
About yourself

Quid pro quo. Yes or no?

Yes or no, Clarice? Poor little
Catherine is waiting

Go, doctor

What is your worst memory
of childhood?

The death of my father

Tell me about it.
And don't lie, or I'll know

He was a town marshal��

��and one night he surprised two
burglars coming out of a drugstore

They shot him

Was he killed outright?

No, he was very strong.
He lasted more than a month

My mother died when I was
very young, so��

��my father had become
the whole world to me��

��and when he left me, I had
nothing. I was 10 years old

You're very frank, Clarice

I think it would be quite something
to know you in private life

Quid pro quo, doctor

So tell me about Miss West Virginia.
Was she a large girl?

Yes

Big through the hips, roomy?

They all were

What else?

She had an object deliberately
inserted into her throat

Now, that hasn't been made public yet.
We don't know what it means

Was it a butterfly?

Yes. A moth

Just like the one we found in
Benjamin Raspail's head an hour ago

Why does he place them there,
doctor?

The significance of the moth
is change

Caterpillar into chrysalis, or pupa��

��and from thence into beauty

Our Billy wants to change too

There's no correlation between
transsexualism and violence

��Transsexuals are very passive.
��Clever girl

You're so close to the way you're
gonna catch him. Do you realize that?

No. Tell me why

After your father's murder you were
orphaned. What happened next?

I don't imagine the answer is on
those second��rate shoes, Clarice

I went to live with my mother's cousin
and her husband in Montana

They had a ranch

Was it a cattle ranch?

Sheep and horses

How long did you live there?

Two months

Why so briefly?

I ran away

Why, Clarice? Did the rancher
make you perform fellatio?

Did he sodomize you?

No. He was a very decent man

Quid pro quo, doctor

Billy is not a real transsexual

But he thinks he is.
He tries to be

He's tried to be a lot of
things, I expect

You said I was very close to the way
we'd catch him. What did you mean?

There are three major centers for
transsexual surgery��

Johns Hopkins, the University of
Minnesota, and Columbus Medical Center

I wouldn't be surprised if Billy
applied for sex reassignment��

��at one or all of them,
and been rejected

On what basis would they reject him?

Look for severe childhood
disturbances associated with violence

Our Billy wasn'tborn
a criminal, Clarice��

��he was made one through
years of systematic abuse

Billy hates his own identity,
you see��

��and he thinks that makes him
a transsexual��

��but his pathologyis
a thousand times more savage��

��and more terrifying

It rubs the lotion on its skin.
It does this whenever it's told

Mister, my family will pay cash

Whatever ransom you're asking for,
they'll pay it

It rubs the lotion on its skin
or else it gets the hose again

Yes, she will, Precious.
She'll get the hose

Okay, okay, okay

Okay, I'll do it

Okay

Mister, if you let me go,
I won't press charges. I promise

See, my mom is a real important woman

I guess you already know that

Now it places the lotion
in the basket

Please��

Please, I want to go home

I want to go home��
Please�� Please let me

It places the lotion in the basket

I want to see my mommy.
Please let me

I want to see my mom again.
I want����

I want to see my mom

Put the fucking lotion in the basket��

You still think you're gonna walk
on some beach and see the birdies?

I don't think so

I called Senator Ruth Martin

She never heard of any deal with you

They scammed you, Hannibal

Stand outside

And shut the door

Barney

There never was a deal with
Senator Martin, but there is now

I designed it

Of course, I worked in a few
conditions for my own benefit as well

Identify Buffalo Bill by name��

��and if the girl is found in time��

��you'll be transferred to Brushy
Mountain State Prison in Tennessee

Answer me, Hannibal

You answer me now��

��or, by God,
you'll never leave this cell

Who is Buffalo Bill?

His first name is Louis

I'll tell the rest to the Senator
herself, but only in Tennessee

And I have a few conditions of my own

Clean him up and get him ready to go

jack, Hannibal Lecter
is being transferred to Memphis

Transferred?

Did you have a trainee make a phony
offer to Lecter in the senator's name?

I rolled the dice. I had to

Well, she's mad as hell, Jack

Paul Krendler's here from Justice

She's asking him
to take over in Memphis

Welcome to Memphis, Dr. Lecter

I'm Lieutenant Boyle.
This is Sergeant Patrick

We'll treat you as good
as you treat us

You be a gentleman,
you'll get three hots and a cot

Sir, if you sign right here,
we'll have us a legal transfer

Here, sir, use mine

Senator Martin��

��Dr. Hannibal Lecter

Dr. Lecter��

��I've brought an affidavit
guaranteeing your new rights

You'll want to read it before I sign

I won't waste your time or Catherine's
time bargaining for petty privileges

Clarice Starling and Jack Crawford
have wasted too much time already

I only pray they haven't doomed
the poor girl

Let me help you now.
I will trust you when it is all over

You have my word. Paul

Buffalo Bill's real name
is Louis Friend

I met him just once. He was referred
to me in April or May, 1980��

��by my patient Benjamin Raspail

They were lovers, you see

But Raspail had become
very frightened

Apparently, Louis had
murdered a transient��

��and done things with the skin

��and done things with the skin

We need his address
and a physical description

Tell me, senator

Did you nurse Catherine yourself?

-What?
��Did you breast��feed her?

��Now, wait a minute��
��Yes. I did

Toughened your nipples, didn't it?

You son of a bitch��

Amputate a man's leg,
and he can still feel it tickling

Tell me, Mom, when your
little girl is on the slab��

��where will it tickle you?

Take this thing back to Baltimore

Five��foot��ten, strongly built,
about 180 pounds

Hair, blond. Eyes, pale blue

He'd be about 35 now

He said he lived in Philadelphia
but may have lied

That's all I can remember, Mom

But if I think of any more,
I will let you know

Oh, and senator, just one more thing��

Love your suit

In a meeting earlier today
with Senator Ruth Martin��

��Dr. Lecter agreed to help in the
investigation to find Buffalo Bill

��How do you fit in?
��My unique insight��

��into Lecter made the breakthrough

Buffalo Bill's name?

His name is now a matter of record
with the proper authorities

��Can you give us����?
��I'm Dr. Frederick Chilton

��Spell it?
��That's C��H����

Are you with Dr. Chilton's group?

Well, I just saw him outside, sir

Access to Lecter is limited.
We've received death threats

I understand, sir

Log in and check your weapon

I can't take all the credit myself

Senator Martin,
Justice Department, FBI��

��folks at the Baltimore State
Hospital. Now for the hard part��

Apprehending the suspect

Excuse me, I have to catch a flight

Command desk, Officer Jacobs

��Is it true what they're saying?
��Huh?

He's some kind of vampire?

They don't have a name for what he is

You do know the rules, ma'am?

Yes, I've questioned him before

Go ahead

Good evening, Clarice

I thought you might like
your drawings back

Just until you get your view

How very thoughtful

Or did Jack Crawford
send you for one last wheedle��

��before you're both
booted off the case?

No. I came because I wanted to

People will say we're in love

Anthrax Island

That was an especially
nice touch, Clarice

Yours?

Yes

Yeah

That was good

Pity about poor Catherine, though

Ticktock, ticktock, ticktock

Your anagrams are showing, doctor

Louis Friend?

Iron sulfide,
also known as fool's gold

Oh, Clarice, your problem is, you
need to get more fun out of life

You were telling me the truth
back in Baltimore, sir

Please continue now

Well, I've read the case files.
Have you?

Everything you need to find him
is there in those pages

��Then tell me how.
��First principles, Clarice

Simplicity. Read Marcus Aurelius

Of each particular thing, ask��
What is it in itself?

What is its nature?

What does he do, this man you seek?

He kills women

No. That is incidental

What is the principle thing he does?
What needs does he serve by killing?

Anger��

��social acceptance
and sexual frustration����

No��

He covets

That is his nature

And how do we begin to covet, Clarice?

Do we seek out things to covet?

Make an effort to answer now

No, we just����

No, we begin by coveting
what we see every day

Don't you feel eyes moving
over your body, Clarice?

And don't your eyes seek out
the things you want?

All right, yes.
Now, please tell me how

No

It is your turn to tell me, Clarice

You don't have any more
vacations to sell

Why did you leave that ranch?

Doctor, we don't have any more time
for any of this now

But we don't reckon time
the same way, do we?

This is all the time you'll have

Later. Please listen.
We've only got five����

No�� I will listen now

Your father's murder orphaned you
when you were 10

You went to live with cousins on a
sheep and horse ranch in Montana. And?

And one morning I just ran away

Not ��just,�� Clarice.
What set you off?

You started at what time?

Early, still dark

Then something woke you.
Was it a dream?

What was it?

I heard a strange noise

What was it?

It was��

��screaming

Some kind of screaming,
like a child's voice

What did you do?

I went��

��downstairs. Outside

I crept up into the barn

I was so scared to look inside,
but I had to

And what did you see, Clarice?
What did you see?

Lambs

They were screaming

They were slaughtering
the spring lambs?

And they were screaming

And you ran away?

No. First I tried to free them

I opened the gate to their pen

They just stood there, confused.
They wouldn't run

But you could and you did, didn't you?

Yes. I took one lamb
and I ran away as fast as I could

Where were you going, Clarice?

I don't know. I didn't have
any food, any water��

��and it was very cold.
It was very cold

I thought��.

I thought if I could save just one��

��but he was so heavy

He was so heavy

I didn't get more than a few miles
when the sheriff's car picked me up

The rancher was so angry he sent me
to a Lutheran orphanage in Bozeman

I never saw the ranch again

What became of your lamb, Clarice?

They killed him

You still wake up sometimes,
don't you?

Wake up in the dark��

��and hear the screaming
of the lambs?

Yes

And you think if you save
poor Catherine��

��you can make them stop, don't you?
You think if Catherine lives��

��you won't wake up
in the dark ever again��

��to that awful screaming
of the lambs

I don't know

I don't know

Thank you, Clarice

Thank you

Tell me his name, doctor

Dr. Chilton, I presume

I think you know each other

Okay

-We found her.
��Let's go

It's your turn, doctor

��Out��
��Tell me his name

Sorry, ma'am, I've got orders
to put you on a plane

Come on, now

Brave Clarice

You will let me know when those lambs
stop screaming, won't you?

Tell me his name, doctor��

Clarice��

Your case file

Hey��

Goodbye, Clarice

Ready when you are, doc

Just another minute, please

Son of a bitch demanded
a second dinner

Lamb chops, extra rare

Wonder what he wants for breakfast?
Some damn thing from the zoo?

Good evening, gentlemen

Okay, doc. Grab some floor

Same drill as before, please

Ready when you are, Sergeant Pembry

Okay

Hand me that, would you?

Thanks

Mind the drawings, please

Thank you

Pembry, watch it, he's cuffed me��

Jesus Christ��

Ready when you are, Sergeant Pembry

What is this shit?

Did somebody go up on five?

��No, nobody went up.
��Call Pembry. Ask him to tell����

CP, shots fired on five.
Repeat, shots fired on five

Sergeant Tate��

Proceed. Shots fired on five

Holy shit��

-What the hell?
��Bitch��

Shut up��

Bobby, get the vest

Right, sarge

��Brady, Howard, cover����
��Look��

It stopped

Seal off a 10��block radius

Get me the SWaT team
and an ambulance, double quick

We're going up

Pembry?��

Boyle?��

Oh, God��

Go

��Clear.
��Clear

Command post

Two officers down

��Clear��
��Clear��

Lecter's gone, sarge

Prisoner is missing

Boyle's gun is gone

Repeat. Lecter is missing and armed

He stripped the bed

Might be making a rope.
Check all the windows

Where the fuck is my ambulance?

He's alive

Sergeant Tate�� He's alive��

Get ahold of him and feel his hands.
Talk to him��

What do I say?

It's Jim Pembry.
Now talk to him, damn it��

Lecter is missing and armed

��Pembry. Pembry, can you hear me?
��He took Boyle's gun

Pembry got off one round.
There's a chance Lecter's hit

Keep breathing in and out

You're doing a good job.
You look real good there

Yeah, you look���� Look real good

��You ready?
��Let's go��

��Let's do it.
��Okay, let's go��

Looking good. You're gonna make it

Everything's just fine

��I need that IV now��
��Lactated Ringer's

Can we get the strap?
Where's the oxygen?

Doing good, buddy. That's right.
Stay with me here

We're losing him��
Downstairs, quickly��

And up��

��Elevator��
��This way��

��Out of the way��
��Get out of the way��

CP to Tate

Roger, lieutenant. Tate here

I'm on the elevator
bringing Pembry down

He seems to be hanging on

Top three floors secured

Main stairwell secured

We think he's on two

Tate, you still with me?

We're pretty sure
he's somewhere on two, sir

That's all for now. Over

He's on the roof of the elevator

Okay, guys

I see him

There's a gun by his hand.
He's not moving

��One warning. We need him alive.
-Got it

Lecter?

Put your hands on your head

One in the leg

No movement

Johnny, hold your fire.
We're coming into the car

We're opening the hatch

Watch his hands

If there's any fire,
it'll come from us. Affirm

Got it

Memphis General, this is Unit 26

We're inbound with
a 50��year��old male officer��

��with severe facial lacerations

He had grand mal seizure activity.
He's postdictal now

-I copy.
-Vital signs are good

��Pressure is 130/90.
��Ninety?

Yeah, that's right, 90. Pulse, 84

We got him
on lactated Ringer's running��

��and the patient
is on 10 liters of oxygen

Watch it��

The ambulance was found in
a parking garage at Memphis Airport

The crew was dead

He killed a tourist too

Got his clothes, cash

By now he could be anywhere

��He won't come after me.
��Oh, really?

He won't

I can't explain it

He would consider that rude

It's over. She's dead

It's not your fault

Lecter said everything we need to
catch him with is here, only I can't����

Dr. Lecter said a lot of things

He's here, Ardelia

Is this Lecter's handwriting?

Doesn't this random scattering
of sites seem desperately random?

Like the elaboration of a bad liar?
Ta. Hannibal Lecter

��Desperately random.��
What does he mean?

Not random at all, maybe.
Like there's a pattern here

But there's no pattern
or the computers would've nailed it

They're even found in random order

Random because of the one girl.
The one he weighted down

��Fredrica Bimmel.
��Right

From Belvedere, Ohio

The first girl taken,
third body found. Why?

She didn't drift.
He weighted her down

What did Lecter say
about the ��first principles��?

Simplicity

What does this guy do? He covets

How do we first start to covet?

We covet what we see

Every day

Hot damn, Clarice

He knew her

Mr. Bimmel?

That's me

Hello, I'm Clarice Starling.
I'm with the FBI

I appreciate you letting me
take a look around, Mr. Bimmel

I don't know nothing new to tell you

Police been back here
so many times already

Fredrica went into Chicago
on the bus to see about a job

She left the interview okay

She never come home

Her bedroom's how she left it

Upstairs

Doorto the left

He's making himself a woman suit.
Out of real women!

And he can sew��

He's very skilled.
He's a tailor or a dressmaker or����

-starling!
��That's why they're big

He keeps them alive
so he can starve them��

��loosen their skin and����

Starling!
We know who and where he is!

We're on our way right now

-Where?
��Calumet City, edge of Chicago

Be on the ground
in 45 minutes with HRT

That's great news, sir. But how����?

We fed the names johns Hopkins
came up with into Known Offenders

Subject's name is Jamie Gumb,
a.k.a. John Grant

Lecter's description was accurate.
He just lied about the name

Customs had some paper on him

They stopped a carton
two years ago at LAX

Live caterpillars from Suriname

The addressee was a Jame Gumb

Chicago is only 400 miles from here.
I'll be there in����

No, there's not enough time

We want him for murder,
not kidnapping

Link him to Bimmel
before he's indicted

��See what you can find in Belvedere.
��Yes, sir. You bet. I'll do my best

Starling

We wouldn't have found him
without you. Nobody will forget that

Least of all me

Thank you, sir

Thank you very much, Mr. Crawford

Mr. Crawford?

Thanks for the scraps, asshole

I got a better idea

Okay, Precious.
Time for a little treat

Precious��

Come on, girl��

Come on, Precious. Come on, Precious

Come on, Precious

I got a yummy, yummy snack for you

Come and get it��

Precious��

Are you up there, you little shit?

Come and get it, pretty girl

Precious��

Please come. Come on

Come on, Precious

Would you fuck me?

Come on. Take that bone. Come on

Come on. Come on�� Come on��

I'd fuck me

Come on

I'd fuck me hard.
I'd fuck me so hard

No��

Is that a good job, FBI agent?
You get to travel around and stuff?

I mean, better places than this?

Sometimes you do

Freddie was so happy for me
when I got this job at the bank

Toaster give aways and Barry Manilow
on the speakers all day

She thought it was such hot shit

What did she know? Big dummy

Stacy, did Fredrica ever mention
a man named Jamie Gumb?

Or a Jame Gumb?

��How about John Grant?
��No

Would she have had a friend
you didn't know?

No way. If she had a guy,
I'd have known

Sewing was her life

Did you ever work together?

Me and Pam Malavesi used to help her
do alterations for old Mrs. Lippman

Can I get Mrs. Lippman's address?
I need to talk to her

So powerful

So beautiful

Precious?

Precious?

Down here, you sack of shit��

��Put her in that bucket.
��No��

You get me a telephone
and lower it down here, now��

Oh, poodlie��poo. Precious?
Darling, are you all right?

She's in a lot of pain, mister.
She needs a vet

She broke her leg on the way down.
She's licking����

Hey�� Don't you hurt my dog��

Don't you make me hurt your dog��

You don't know what pain is��

Get me that telephone
or I'll kill him��

��Oh, fuck��
��You better get me that telephone��

I'm gonna do it, mister����

I'm gonna snap her neck off,
I swear to God��

All right, mister. I'm doing it��

Okay, I'm coming

We're going in

Good afternoon. Sorry to bother you

I'm looking for Mrs. Lippman's family

FBI�� Everybody down��

Lippmans don't live here anymore

Excuse me, sir.
I need to speak with you

��Clear��
��Clear��

What's the problem, officer?

I'm investigating the death
of Fredrica Bimmel

There's no one here, Jack

Clarice

Your name is��?

Oh, Jack Gordon

Mr. Gordon. Good

Fredrica worked for Mrs. Lippman.
Did you know her?

No, uh��uh

Oh, wait

Was she a great big fat person?

Yes, she was a big girl, sir

Yeah, I may have����

No, I read about her in the newspaper

Mrs. Lippman had a son.
Maybe he could help

I got his card in here

You want to come in?

��May I?
��Yeah, sure

Thank you

Are you close to catching somebody?

Yes

We may be

Did you��

��take over this place after
Mrs. Lippman died, is that right?

Yeah, I bought this house
two years ago

Did she leave any records,
any business records��

��tax forms, lists of employees?

No, nothing like that at all

Say, has the FBI learned something?

The police around here don't seem
to have the first clue

Have you got, like, a description,
fingerprints, anything like that?

No

No, we don't

Here's that number

Very good, Mr. Gordon

May I use your phone, please?

Sure you can use my phone

Freeze��

Put your hands over your head
and turn around. Spread your legs

Spread your legs��

Put your hands in the back����

Freeze��

Hey��

Are you there?

I'm down here�� I'm down here��

Catherine Martin?

Yes��

FBI

You're safe

Safe, shit�� Get me out of here��

You're all right. Where is he?

How the fuck should I know?
Just get me out of here��

Catherine, you've gotta be quiet��
Now, shut that dog up��

Just get me out of here��

Oh, my God

Catherine, I'm gonna get you out.
But right now, you listen to me

I've gotta leave. I'll be right back

No�� Don't you leave me here,
you fucking bitch�� No��

Don't you leave me here��

This guy is fucking crazy��

Wait�� I gotta get out of here��

Please��

Catherine�� The other officers
will be here any minute now

Wait�� Don't go�� Please��

Quiet��

Oh, God�� Oh, God��

��You okay?
��Gunpowder. It's nothing, I'm okay

Agent Starling, how did you
track Buffalo Bill here?

Clarice M. Starling

Congratulations

Ernest W. Stevens

Special Agent Starling��

��Special Agent Mapp.
��Phone call

Thank you. Excuse me

Starling

Pilch, could you take our picture?

Sure

I just wanted to say congratulations

I'm no good at this kind of thing,
so I'm gonna duck out of here

Okay. Sure

Thank you, Mr. Crawford

Your father would've been proud today

Don't forget your phone call

Starling

Well, Clarice��

��have the lambs stopped screaming?

Dr. Lecter?

Don't bother with a trace.
I won't be on long enough

Where are you, Dr. Lecter?

I have no plans to call on you

The world's more interesting
with you in it

So you take care now
to extend me the same courtesy

You know I can't make that promise

I do wish we could chat longer��

��but I'm having
an old friend for dinner

Bye

Dr. Lecter!

Dr. Lecter

Dr. Lecter

Dr. Lecter?

Excuse me. I'm sorry

The security system's set up?

-We have the big shot security.
��I appreciate it
