I'm going through the motions

and just drawing blanks.

I can think of things

I'd rather do than attend

the autopsy on the little girl.

[ Therapist ]

But it's part of the routine,

Mr. Fisher, isn't it?

[ Fisher ]

Cairo seems far, far away.

It's a very beautiful corpse.

You can see that.

The corpse is impersonal.

What interests the scientist

is the marks of the murderer.

We are looking at the workings

of a mind, a man's mind.

That's the thrill of it.

[ Fisher ]

Is it a Lotto Murder ?

Oh, yes, no question.

She's cut up

precisely the same way.

Can you not take a rest now?

[ Fisher ]

Could it be an imitation?

[ Doctor ]

If so, it's a good imitation.

There is one thing

about the killings which hasn't

been mentioned in the press.

That death has taken place

before the disfiguring.

What was the cause of death?

Suffocation. Look.

These lottery dealers

are weak persons and--

[ Indistinct Shout ]

and unprotected invalids...

and young women and so on.

This disfiguring--

Was it done with a knife?

Broken bottle.

Does it shock you?

[ Dog Whimpering ]

[ Fisher ]

I've been out of practical

police work for some years.

[ Doctor ]

But you are a professional.

We both are.

Our admiration

is for the criminal, not the victim.

She's gone.

He remains out there,

leaving his little traces,

his own little system.

He cuts

and leaves himself bare.

[ Phone Ringing ]

Where did you get

your training? Auschwitz?

Mr. Fisher, it's

from Osborne's house.

There were those who did.

[ Indistinct ]

[ Woman On Phone ]

Mr. Fisher, you must come at once.

I think something's

happened to Mr. Osborne.

After you left, he told me

not to let anybody in,

- [ Knocking ]

- but just now I heard him

arguing with somebody.

And now he doesn't answer.

[ Gasping ]

Tora, Tora.

[ Gun Splashes ]

[ Gasping ]

I fell. I get

these attacks, you know?

Th-That'll be all.

I don't know how

to explain this, Fisher.

I don't know if you understand

the meaning of a word like "expiation."

I feel I have to pay somehow.

Do you know what I mean?

You don't want to know.

[ Fisher ]

Earlier in the evening,

I was called out to a homicide.

A girl. The case resembled something

you were working on before you retired.

Mom does it.

Dad does it.

- Horses have a try and--

- I think I'll come back tomorrow.

[ Osborne Muttering ]

Who's Harry Grey?

Yes, that's a good question:

Who is Harry Grey?

Harry Grey

doesn't exist anymore,

and the Lotto Murders

are a closed book.

Those murders

were ritualistic,

bizarre,

the fruit of a sick brain,

maniac.

But they were systematic--

systematic

to the last detail.

Inhuman.

Now, this is the only
