You know what? You're just

a work in progress, babe.

Oh, Sophie.

Okay.

Why don't you come to work

with me tomorrow? Really?

Yeah. You just chill.

We can pet the cats.

Love the cats! They love you.

Mew!

Yeah.

I love you so much.

I love you too.

In reference to target m4937,

you have been assigned

a new identity.

You are FBI agent Leonard Knox

from the Alabama field office.

New Orleans pd

is at your disposal.

Hopper, because of your personal

relationship with the target,

we remind you that failure

will not be tolerated.

Eliminating the target

is now your top priority.

Knox?

Agent Leonard Knox?

Uh-huh.

And you are?

Detective Gus Patrick.

Welcome to New Orleans.

Nice to meet you.

Is this supposed to be relaxing?

Normally, it is. You make

everything so crazy. I don't...

Why are you wearing cat ears?

They sell them behind the counter.

Those are for kids.

Well, I feel beautiful.

But you guys are okay,

aren't you?

You're just the cutest.

No, that is Hannibal.

He's a straight-up killer.

This one?

- Yeah, he'll f***ing scratch

your face off. - Are you crazy?

Are you crazy?

This is a metaphor.

No.

- This cat is my soul.

- It's not a metaphor.

- I need to confront this.

- Martha, no.

- We're gonna be best buddies.

- I would not stand that close.

- It's gonna be okay.

- What are you doing?

So in the metaphor,

do you think I won or lost?

God, it just exploded.

I mean, it pissed

right in your face. Ew.

Sorry. You really

took the brunt of it.

I thought you'd have better reflexes,

working with cats so long.

Do you think that's a defense mechanism?

That it pisses in your face?

Is that like

an evolutionary sort of...

I'm really sorry, Sophie.

It wasn't a metaphor.

Yeah, I realize that now.

Yeah.

You should go home.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Yeah, very sure.

Okay.

I will see you at home.

Phew.

How'd you do that?

This is a lot of condoms.

Enough condoms here to choke a goat.

What?

I don't know what I just said.

Hey, you wanna get out of here?

What?

Is it creepy? Sometimes I

don't know I'm being creepy.

Do you wanna go on a date? Do you wanna

get out of here and then go on a date?

Based on what?

Based on nothing?

Just go on a date?

What else are you doing today?

Fighting the urge to run

away from you right now.

I'm actually on the run too.

From creepy guys like you?

Oh, man. These guys wish

they were as creepy as I am.

International hit men.

Ew. Gross, right?

Oof.

Come on, it's 3:
00 pm. Let's go get

some gumbo. Alligator pancakes?

What else you got to do today? Other than

get serial killed by a cartoon character?

Maybe a lot.

Was that cartoon character

bothering you?
