And also who've been down with crap genetic hands.

Wow, that guy is one motherfucking creature.

Did I use too much garlic?

No, it's just that...I'm not feeling a 100% right now.

I'm seeing Averman again tomorrow.

Yeah, about the scan?

If you feeling up to.., why don't you come and see me after?

You don't have to leave.

I had a killer day and you need to rest.

Maybe I'll see you tomorrow.

I'm not a monster.

I didn't know they were gonna

do what they did.

Hi, I'm looking for detective Van Doran.

Van Doran

Hi, detective.

My name is Terry, I was hoping to...

I want to ask you a question about a case that you're involved in.

A man named Veillard.

He was murdered.

Well, his wife was murdered too.

Do you know them or something?

We're close, yes.

Well, I'll eat along Chef Le Carr

you should meet me there.

Detective Van Doran?

Have a seat.

You've visited the Jean Vieillard crime scene?

Who the f*** are you and how do you know Vieillard?

I'm Terry Bernard, I'm just an old friend of Vieillard.

Old friend?...

It says here that there were no suspects.

But..Did you ever catch anyone?

No.

And...Acherton, Do you know Acherton?

Do you know who he is?

It says he was hit in the head

with a blunt instrument.

What does it say about his wife?

It didn't mention sir, why?

We didn't catch anyone.

I don't know who Acherton is.

And I won't help you because you obviously

never met Jean Vieillard or his wife.

And even if you did know what the f***

you were talking about...

you're not gonna make it right, do you?

Hello.

You better turn on your TV.

Yeah, I'm watching right now.

You think we should be worried?

Hello.

Yeah.

Are you alright?

Jesus Christ, you scared the sh*t out of me, man.

I got a 10-45 D in a medical center subway station.

Possible homicide. Wallet found on the scene says the victim is Acherton, Paul Ed.

We're gonna need a cleanup for this one.

-Jesus Christ.

-Why does he have to show up?

He jumped?

No, it says he was pushed.

You got anything?

Just some hair.

But it'll never hold up in court.

Besides, we need a suspect first.

Hey, sweetheart.

Where is he?

He locked himself in the bathroom.

Terry, if you're in there and you can hear me...

let me know if you need help, alright.

Coz I can call an ambulance.

Don't call an ambulance.

What..?

It's nothing. Just a little irritated.

What did Dr. Averman say?

He's not concerned coz I'm fine.

Obviously it's not fine coz you look just so pale.

Did you take your meds this morning?

I'm not your patient.

If this is about us...

If you think we've taken a wrong turn somewhere,

then just tell me.

Last night I...

No, it's okay.
