common to your company

and others

in the changing workplace.

It's important to distinguish

between someone having a bad day

that ends in a tantrum

and someone whose failure

to resist aggressive impulses

results in serious

destructive acts.

These people are in many ways

no different from you and me,

but they can no longer

controI their urges.

They disassociate themselves

from their actions,

often experiencing

an hystericaI blindness.

They're blind to the darkness

within themselves.

You have reached

the law offices

of Gavin, Terry, and Klorinda.

Office hours are 9am to 6pm.

After the beep,

please leave a message.

Hey, it's me.

I thought maybe you were

working late, but I guess not.

I'm so tired of these things,

honey.

I feel like I'm disassociating

myself from my own actions.

Maybe I'm reaching

hystericaI blindness.

Hey, be carefuI. I might give in

to an uncontrollable urge.

Anyway...

I miss you.

How does that

make you feel?

Be nice.

You don't give a sh*t

about anyone, do you?

That's none of your business.

Governor Edwards called me.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

Are you out of

your f***ing mind?

The next time you go there,

check with me first.

OK.

I want you off this case.

Cliff, I am onto something here.

I need a little more time.

I want you off the case.

You take me off this,

and I will go public.

I don't think the governor

would appreciate that.

Why don't you work it out

and try it yourself?

Maybe I will.

You haven't tried a case

in 10 years, Cliff.

Will there be anything else?

Here's the governor's

lady friend.

She's 17 here.

Had to get

into juvenile files for this.

Patrice Jacinto, 21.

Works for a beauty parlour

in Chinatown.

One arrest for solicitation

when she was a juvenile.

- You talk to her yet?

- No, not yet.

Her bank account shows

two $10,000 deposits

in the last six months.

Medford's had this place

a couple of years.

His investment company

leases it.

- Hi, John.

- Vasko.

I bet you can't wait

to see the bedroom.

- Corelli.

- Morning.

Deep-seated massage oiI.

And over here we have

a harmony pillow.

"This pillow allows

deeper penetration

"by positioning both partners

most advantageously.

"It raises the female hips,

facilitating male entry.

"You can inflate the pillow

"to varying degrees

of hardness or softness

"while enjoying the thrill

of floating action. "

Here in the nightstand,

we got about

three grams of coke...

Some poppers, some assorted

children's vitamins...

My best guess is ecstasy.

This is the room the governor

was photographed in.

Maybe it's his bridaI suite.

You look in here?

Yeah. It's been photographed.

Cristalle, Beluga,
