You will do well.

- You caught her on a talkative day.

- You being funny?

No, she's quasi-catatonic. In and out.

- What's this?

- The disturbed ward.

To get out...

...you punch a four-digit combo that

sends a signal to the control booth.

The inner door opens. The booth

operator checks through the glass.

- Every day, there's a new combination.

- I'd like to look around.

Bill.

Lieutenant...

...Dr. Freedman's gone ballistic, sir.

You need to come.

Death, be not proud

Though some have called thee

Mighty and dreadful

Thou art not so

Though soonest our best men

With thee go

Rest of their bones

And soul's delivery

But those thou dost think'st

Thou dost overthrow

Die not, poor Death

Nor canst thou kill me

I was only 21 when I died.

We're a hospital, not a war zone.

How do you expect us to keep

people calm when you're..?

You need a court warrant

to do what you're doing!

I appreciate your trying

to prevent further tragedy.

Think of the state of our patients'

minds when...

- Lieutenant wants fingerprints taken.

- Prints?

- Not on your life. No way, Jose!

- He's right here.

- Want to talk to him?!

- Heard of malpractice?

- Heard of the Gemini Killer?

- Have I what?

- I said...

- Yes! So what?

- He's dead.

- Right. He died in the electric chair.

- Why are we talking about..?

- Just a minute, I'll explain.

The Gemini is dead. We know that.

Do you recall the stories

in the papers and on TV...

...about his strange m. o?

I'll remind you.

Supposedly, the middle finger of the

victim's left hand was always found...

...severed. Always missing.

In addition, on the victim's back,

we were told, the killer carved out...

...a sign of the zodiac.

- The Gemini symbol, the twins.

- That was 15 years ago.

- Go ahead.

- Why are you encouraging..?

Shut your mouth!

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

EKG stat to ER.

The Gemini m.o.

that you heard about is false.

The missing finger was

on the victim's right hand.

It was the index finger.

This one.

And the sign of the Gemini

was carved...

...not on the victim's back...

...but on the victim's left palm.

Only Richmond Homicide knew that.

No one else.

Misinformation was fed

to the press to weed out...

...those who said

they were the killer.

"I cut off this finger,"

the loony says.

"And on their backs I made my mark."

Next case.

But, in this case, gentlemen...

...three decapitations,

three victims...

...with this finger severed.

The correct one.

And the sign of the Gemini here.

Here!

One more thing.

The Gemini wrote letters to the

newspapers, bragging of his murders.

He always doubled his final L's.

Two L's, as in "wonderfull."

Yes.

The victims' names always start
