1. Sometimes
Copy !req
2. Dr Lecter and I would talk,
when things got quiet enough,
Copy !req
3. about the science courses
I was taking, and...
Copy !req
4. Some kind of mail-order courses
in psychology, Nurse Barney?
Copy !req
5. No, sir.
Copy !req
6. I don't consider psychology a science,
and neither did Dr Lecter.
Copy !req
7. Barney,
while you were working at the asylum,
Copy !req
8. you observed Clarice Starling
and Hannibal Lecter interacting.
Copy !req
9. Interacting?
Talking to one another.
Copy !req
10. Yes.
Yes, it seemed to me that they...
Copy !req
11. I can see you're eager to justify
your consulting fee,
Copy !req
12. but why don't we start with what you saw,
not what you thought about what you saw?
Copy !req
13. Cordell, don't be like that.
Barney can give us his opinion.
Copy !req
14. Barney, give us your opinion
of what you saw.
Copy !req
15. What was it between them?
Copy !req
16. Well, most of the time,
Dr Lecter didn't respond at all to visitors.
Copy !req
17. He'd just, for instance,
Copy !req
18. open his eyes long enough
to insult some academic
Copy !req
19. who was there to look over him.
Copy !req
20. With Starling, he answered her questions.
She interested him. She intrigued him.
Copy !req
21. He thought she was charming and amusing.
Copy !req
22. Mmm-hmm.
Copy !req
23. So, Clarice Starling and Hannibal Lecter
became friendly?
Copy !req
24. Well, inside a kind of formal structure, yes.
Copy !req
25. And he was fond of her?
Copy !req
26. Yes.
Copy !req
27. Thank you, Barney.
Thank you very much for your candour.
Copy !req
28. And keep all those wonderful items
Copy !req
29. from your personal
Lecter treasure trove coming,
Copy !req
30. I've enjoyed them immensely.
Copy !req
31. Mr Verger.
Copy !req
32. Oh, I almost forgot.
I might be able to get a cookie down.
Copy !req
33. - What do you say, Cordell?
- I think it would kill you.
Copy !req
34. - How much?
- 250,000.
Copy !req
35. Cordell, cut a cheque for $250,000.
Copy !req
36. How can she sleep at a time like this?
Copy !req
37. She's on jump-out squad all night,
she's saving her strength.
Copy !req
38. All right, everyone, pay attention.
Here's the layout.
Copy !req
39. Excuse me. I'm Officer Bolton, D.C. Police.
Copy !req
40. Yes, I can see that from your badge.
How do you do?
Copy !req
41. - I'm in charge here.
- Officer Bolton, I'm Special Agent Starling.
Copy !req
42. And just so we don't get off on the wrong
foot, let me explain why we're all here.
Copy !req
43. I'm here because I know Evelda Drumgo.
Copy !req
44. I've arrested her twice on RICO warrants.
Copy !req
45. DEA and ATF, in addition to backing me up,
are here for the drugs and the weapons.
Copy !req
46. You're here because our mayor
wants to appear tough on drugs,
Copy !req
47. especially after his own cocaine conviction,
Copy !req
48. and hopes he can accomplish that
by having you join us here today.
Copy !req
49. You got a smart mouth, lady.
Copy !req
50. Officer, if you wouldn't mind,
I'd appreciate it if you'd let me continue.
Copy !req
51. All right, take a look.
Fish market, backs on the water.
Copy !req
52. Across the street, ground floor,
is the meth lab.
Copy !req
53. Evelda Drumgo is HIV positive.
Copy !req
54. She will spit and bite if she's cornered,
so you should watch it.
Copy !req
55. And if you happen to be the one
who puts her in a patrol car
Copy !req
56. in front of the news cameras, Officer Bolton,
you don't wanna push her head down,
Copy !req
57. she'll likely have a needle in her hair.
Copy !req
58. We wanna take her
inside the building, not out in the street.
Copy !req
59. We can get closest with the van.
Copy !req
60. If it looks good, on my signal,
we hit the front, DEA hits the back,
Copy !req
61. DCPD backing them up.
Copy !req
62. She'll have her watchers out
at least three blocks around.
Copy !req
63. They've tipped her before in time,
so let's not make spectacles of ourselves.
Copy !req
64. - Pretty busy today.
- I agree.
Copy !req
65. Can I please get a cup of coffee?
Copy !req
66. - Did you see that?
- That's a roger.
Copy !req
67. - What's up, man?
- Hey.
Copy !req
68. Goddamn it. It's her, with three guys.
They're all packing.
Copy !req
69. She's carrying something. She's got a baby.
Copy !req
70. Hey, Brigham, it's too crowded.
Copy !req
71. There are too many people.
I say we call it off. What do you say?
Copy !req
72. I agree. All units, stand down.
Copy !req
73. - Whisky Team copies.
- Burke copy.
Copy !req
74. This is Bolton. Stay on target.
Copy !req
75. I said all units stand down, Bolton,
right now.
Copy !req
76. It's too late, we're moving in.
Copy !req
77. Hey, Bolton, he said it's off.
Stand down, now.
Copy !req
78. She's carrying a baby.
I repeat, she's carrying a baby.
Copy !req
79. - All units stand down.
- Keep that gun down, Bolton.
Copy !req
80. - Damn, dude got a piece.
- Light his ass up.
Copy !req
81. - Son of a bitch!
- It's a go. FBI, get on the ground!
Copy !req
82. Hold it! Hold your fire!
Copy !req
83. Down!
Copy !req
84. Evelda, get out of the car!
Copy !req
85. Starling, is that you?
Copy !req
86. Step away from the car!
Copy !req
87. Show me your hands, Evelda.
Copy !req
88. Please, show me your hands.
Copy !req
89. - How have you been?
- Don't do this.
Copy !req
90. Do what?
Copy !req
91. It's all right. It's okay.
Copy !req
92. I know, I know. Baby, I know. It's okay.
Copy !req
93. It's okay.
Copy !req
94. Friends, family,
and co-workers gathered here this morning
Copy !req
95. at Arlington National Cemetery
to bury BATF agent John Brigham,
Copy !req
96. shot and killed in the line of duty, Friday.
He was 40 years old.
Copy !req
97. This ill-fated drug raid,
that claimed his life and five others,
Copy !req
98. is the latest in a seemingly
endless series of incidents,
Copy !req
99. beginning with Waco, Texas,
in which the Justice Department and the FBI
Copy !req
100. have been questioned about their use
of firepower rather than judgement.
Copy !req
101. This time,
it was FBI Special Agent Clarice Starling
Copy !req
102. heading up the calamitous strike force.
Copy !req
103. Agent Starling attained some measure
of celebrity 10 years ago,
Copy !req
104. when she was given information
Copy !req
105. by Dr Hannibal "the Cannibal" Lecter,
which led to the rescue
Copy !req
106. of Catherine Martin, daughter
of the former U.S. senator from Tennessee.
Copy !req
107. However, when she returns to work
later this week, she won't be so celebrated.
Copy !req
108. Attorney Telford Higgins, representing
one of the families of those slain,
Copy !req
109. says he will file a wrongful death suit.
Copy !req
110. Cordell.
Copy !req
111. Cordell.
Copy !req
112. - Yes, sir.
- Get me the Justice Department.
Copy !req
113. Agent Starling?
This is John Eldridge from DEA.
Copy !req
114. Assistant Director Noonan, of course,
you know.
Copy !req
115. Larkin Wayne from our
Office of Professional Responsibility.
Copy !req
116. Bob Sneed, ATF.
Copy !req
117. Benny Holcombe, assistant to the mayor,
and Paul Krendler.
Copy !req
118. You know Paul.
Copy !req
119. Paul's come over from Justice, unofficially,
as a favour to us.
Copy !req
120. In other words, he's here, and he's not here.
Copy !req
121. So, I take it you've seen the coverage
in the papers, and on television?
Copy !req
122. I have nothing to do with the news,
Mr Krendler.
Copy !req
123. The woman had a baby in her arms.
Copy !req
124. There are pictures.
You can see the problem, I would think.
Copy !req
125. Not in her arms,
in a carrier across her chest.
Copy !req
126. In her arms, she had a MAC-10:
Copy !req
127. Look,
we're here to help you, Starling.
Copy !req
128. It's gonna be a hell of a lot harder to do
with a combative attitude.
Copy !req
129. Can I speak freely, Mr Pearsall?
Copy !req
130. Your agency called this office
to get me assigned to help you on this raid.
Copy !req
131. I tried to do that.
Copy !req
132. I clearly expressed my judgement,
and was ignored,
Copy !req
133. and now a good agent, and a friend, is dead.
Copy !req
134. You shot and killed five people out there,
Agent Starling.
Copy !req
135. Is that how you define good judgement?
Copy !req
136. This raid was an ugly mess.
I ended up in a position
Copy !req
137. where I had a choice of dying,
Copy !req
138. or shooting a woman carrying a child.
Copy !req
139. I chose. I shot her.
Copy !req
140. I killed a mother holding her child.
Copy !req
141. And I regret it, I resent myself for it.
Copy !req
142. All right, gentlemen,
I'm going to call a halt to this meeting
Copy !req
143. and get back to you individually by phone.
Copy !req
144. Waste of time.
Copy !req
145. You have
a secret admirer, Starling.
Copy !req
146. Isn't much to look at,
but he does have friends in high places.
Copy !req
147. Remember Mason Verger?
Copy !req
148. Lecter's fourth victim,
the rich one.
Copy !req
149. The only one that survived.
Copy !req
150. He says he has some new information
on Lecter. He'll only share it with you.
Copy !req
151. What do you mean,
only share it with me? You want it, seize it.
Copy !req
152. We'd rather not.
Copy !req
153. I wasn't speaking to you,
Mr Krendler.
Copy !req
154. When I speak to you,
you'll know it, because I'll look at you.
Copy !req
155. Why would we rather not?
Copy !req
156. The last time he called was when we
took Lecter off the Ten Most Wanted list.
Copy !req
157. He was upset about that.
We said, "Hey, that's life."
Copy !req
158. He said, "Hey, this is
a Senate oversight committee,
Copy !req
159. "to make your life miserable."
Copy !req
160. His family's political contributions
may not be enough to buy a senator,
Copy !req
161. but they are enough to rent them
from time to time.
Copy !req
162. There's no reason to go through that again
if he really does have something new.
Copy !req
163. It's a good deal for you,
Starling. You can't pretend it isn't.
Copy !req
164. You get to go back on a celebrated case.
Copy !req
165. I'll take care of the media
for your Drumgo killing.
Copy !req
166. - Everyone's gonna be happy.
- I'm not happy.
Copy !req
167. Well, maybe you're incapable
of being happy.
Copy !req
168. Mr Krendler, when you're out on the street,
Copy !req
169. you know you might take
a bullet in the line of duty.
Copy !req
170. You accept it, or you get out.
You live with it.
Copy !req
171. What you don't expect, or accept,
Copy !req
172. is taking one in the back in your boss' office
Copy !req
173. for doing your job
exactly as they've taught you.
Copy !req
174. That makes you unhappy.
Copy !req
175. Of course, you're right, Starling,
but it doesn't really change anything.
Copy !req
176. It changes everything. It changes me.
Copy !req
177. Agent Starling, hi. I'm Cordell Doemling,
Mr Verger's private physician.
Copy !req
178. How do you do?
Copy !req
179. If you'd be so kind
as to park down at the end.
Copy !req
180. One's eyes adjust to the darkness.
Copy !req
181. versus an estimate of 16.
Copy !req
182. Dylan, they're saying sales
have slowed down.
Copy !req
183. Seems like a recurring theme here. Perhaps
corporate spending on a slowdown...
Copy !req
184. Mr Verger, Agent Starling is here.
Copy !req
185. Good morning, Mr Verger.
Copy !req
186. Was that a Mustang
I heard out there?
Copy !req
187. Yes, it was.
Copy !req
188. - A five litre?
- Yes.
Copy !req
189. Fast.
Copy !req
190. Cordell, I think you can leave us now.
Copy !req
191. I thought I might stay.
Copy !req
192. - Perhaps I could be useful.
- You could be useful
Copy !req
193. seeing about my lunch.
Copy !req
194. I'd like to attach this microphone
Copy !req
195. to your clothing or your pillow,
if you're comfortable with that.
Copy !req
196. Oh, by all means.
Copy !req
197. Here, this should make it easier.
Copy !req
198. You know, I thank God for what happened.
It was my salvation.
Copy !req
199. Have you accepted Jesus, Agent Starling?
Copy !req
200. - Do you have faith?
- I was raised Lutheran.
Copy !req
201. That's not what I asked.
Copy !req
202. This is Special Agent Clarice Starling,
5-1-4-3-6-9-0,
Copy !req
203. deposing Mason R. Verger
on March 20, sworn and attested...
Copy !req
204. - I wanna tell you about summer camp.
- Mr Verger...
Copy !req
205. - It was a wonderful childhood experience.
- We can get to that later.
Copy !req
206. No, we can get to it now.
Copy !req
207. You see, it all comes to bear.
Copy !req
208. It was a Christian camp my father founded
Copy !req
209. for poor, unfortunate,
castoff little boys and girls
Copy !req
210. who would do anything for a candy bar.
Copy !req
211. Mr Verger, I don't need to know
about the sex offences,
Copy !req
212. - I just have to...
- No, it's all right.
Copy !req
213. I have immunity from the U.S. Attorneys,
Copy !req
214. and I have immunity from the Risen Jesus.
Copy !req
215. And nobody beats the Riz.
Copy !req
216. Had you ever seen Dr Lecter
Copy !req
217. before the court assigned you to him
for therapy?
Copy !req
218. What do you mean? Socially?
Copy !req
219. That is what I mean.
Yes, if you don't mind talking about it.
Copy !req
220. - Oh, not at all. I'm not ashamed.
- I didn't say you should be.
Copy !req
221. No. We met conventionally,
as doctor and patient.
Copy !req
222. - How did he end up at your house?
- I invited him, of course.
Copy !req
223. To my pied-à-terre.
Copy !req
224. I came to the door
in my nicest "come hither" outfit.
Copy !req
225. I was concerned he'd be afraid of me,
Copy !req
226. but he didn't seem to be afraid of me.
Copy !req
227. That's almost funny now.
Copy !req
228. I showed him my toys,
my noose setup, among other things.
Copy !req
229. It's a way you sort of hang yourself,
but not really.
Copy !req
230. It feels good while you...
Copy !req
231. Well, you know.
Copy !req
232. Anyway, he said, "Mason..."
Copy !req
233. Mason, would you like a popper?
Copy !req
234. And I said, "Would I? Oh, wow."
Once that kicked in, I was flying.
Copy !req
235. He said, "Mason, show me how you smile
to gain the confidence of a child."
Copy !req
236. Then I smiled.
Copy !req
237. He said, "Oh, I see how you do it."
Copy !req
238. The good doctor approached me
with a piece of broken mirror.
Copy !req
239. "Try this."
Copy !req
240. Try peeling off your face.
Copy !req
241. "And feeding it to the dogs."
Copy !req
242. No. I can still see it.
Copy !req
243. Try again.
Copy !req
244. No, I'm afraid not.
Copy !req
245. That's entertainment!
Copy !req
246. It seemed like a good idea at the time.
Copy !req
247. Mr Verger, you indicated to me that you'd
received some kind of new information.
Copy !req
248. Um...
Copy !req
249. Cordell.
Copy !req
250. - Where did this come from?
- Buenos Aires. I received it two weeks ago.
Copy !req
251. - Where is the package it came in?
- Good question.
Copy !req
252. There was nothing written on it of interest.
Cordell, did we throw it out?
Copy !req
253. - Yes, I'm afraid we did.
- Oh, dear. You think it'll help?
Copy !req
254. I hope so. I hope it'll help you catch him,
Copy !req
255. to help cleanse the stigma
of your recent dishonour.
Copy !req
256. - Thank you. I think that's all I need.
- Did you find some rapport with Dr Lecter,
Copy !req
257. in your talks at the asylum?
Copy !req
258. I know I did, while I was peeling.
Copy !req
259. We exchanged information in a civil way.
Copy !req
260. - But always through the glass?
- Yes.
Copy !req
261. - Isn't it funny?
- What's that?
Copy !req
262. You can look at my face,
Copy !req
263. but you shied when I said the name of God.
Copy !req
264. - Finding what you want?
- Are you sure this is all of it?
Copy !req
265. That's all there is now. There was more,
Copy !req
266. but it's been picked over
little by little over the years.
Copy !req
267. You know, this stuff's worth
a lot of money in certain circles.
Copy !req
268. It's kind of like the cocaine
that disappears around here,
Copy !req
269. little by little.
Copy !req
270. Let me go!
Copy !req
271. Hey, Barney. Remember me?
Copy !req
272. Would you agree for the record,
Agent Starling,
Copy !req
273. that I've not been read my rights?
Copy !req
274. I have not Mirandized Barney.
He is unaware of his rights.
Copy !req
275. So, when you turned Dr Lecter over
to the Tennessee police...
Copy !req
276. They weren't civil to him.
They're all dead now.
Copy !req
277. Yeah, they only survived his company
three days.
Copy !req
278. You survived him six years at the asylum.
Copy !req
279. How'd you do that?
It wasn't just being civil.
Copy !req
280. Yes, it was.
Copy !req
281. Did you ever think after he escaped
he might come after you?
Copy !req
282. No. He once told me that whenever feasible,
he preferred to eat the rude.
Copy !req
283. "Free-range rude,"
he called them.
Copy !req
284. What about you?
You ever think he might come after you?
Copy !req
285. You ever think about him at all?
Copy !req
286. Oh, at least 30 seconds of every day.
I can't help it.
Copy !req
287. He's always with me, like a bad habit.
Copy !req
288. Do you know what happened to his stuff?
His books, papers, drawings...
Copy !req
289. Everything got thrown away
when the place closed. Cutbacks.
Copy !req
290. Barney, I just found out that Dr Lecter's
signed copy of The Joy of Cooking
Copy !req
291. sold to a private collector for $16,000.
Copy !req
292. Phew!
Copy !req
293. It was probably a fake.
Copy !req
294. The seller's affidavit of ownership
was signed Karen Phlox.
Copy !req
295. Do you know Karen Phlox?
Copy !req
296. You should.
Copy !req
297. She filled out your employment application,
only at the bottom, she signed it "Barney."
Copy !req
298. Same thing on your tax returns.
Copy !req
299. You want the book? Maybe I can get it back.
Copy !req
300. I want the X-ray they shot
after you broke Lecter's arm
Copy !req
301. during the attack on that nurse.
Copy !req
302. And everything else you got.
Copy !req
303. We used to talk about
a lot of things at night,
Copy !req
304. after the screaming finally died down.
Copy !req
305. We talked about you sometimes.
Copy !req
306. - You wanna know what he said?
- Go get the X-ray.
Copy !req
307. - I'm not a bad guy.
- I didn't say you were.
Copy !req
308. Dr Chilton was a bad guy.
Copy !req
309. After your first visit,
Copy !req
310. he started taping
your conversations with Dr Lecter.
Copy !req
311. These are valuable.
Copy !req
312. Go on, now. You've grieved long enough.
Copy !req
313. And what'd he say?
Copy !req
314. What'd he say about me, late at night?
Copy !req
315. Well, he was talking about inherited,
hard-wired behaviour.
Copy !req
316. He was using genetics
in the roller pigeons as an example.
Copy !req
317. They fly way up in the air,
Copy !req
318. roll over backwards in a display,
falling toward the ground.
Copy !req
319. There are shallow
rollers, and there are deep rollers.
Copy !req
320. You can't breed two deep rollers,
Copy !req
321. or their young, their offspring,
will roll all the way down, hit, and die.
Copy !req
322. Agent Starling is a deep roller, Barney.
Copy !req
323. Let us hope one of her parents was not.
Copy !req
324. Surely, the odd confluence of events
hasn't escaped you, Clarice.
Copy !req
325. Jack Crawford dangles you in front of me,
then I give you a bit of help.
Copy !req
326. Do you think
it's because I like to look at you
Copy !req
327. and imagine how good you would taste,
Copy !req
328. Clarice?
Copy !req
329. I don't know. Is it?
Copy !req
330. I've been in this room
for eight years now, Clarice.
Copy !req
331. I know they will never, ever
let me out while I'm alive.
Copy !req
332. What I want is a view.
Copy !req
333. I want a window where I can see a tree,
or even water.
Copy !req
334. I want to be in a federal institution,
far away from Dr Chilton.
Copy !req
335. The Capponi correspondence
goes back to the 13th century.
Copy !req
336. Dr Fell might hold in his hand,
his non-Italian hand,
Copy !req
337. a note from Dante Alighieri himself,
but would he recognise it? I think not.
Copy !req
338. Gentlemen, you have examined him
in medieval Italian,
Copy !req
339. and I will not deny
that his language is admirable
Copy !req
340. for a straniero, but
Copy !req
341. is he acquainted with the personalities
of the pre-Renaissance Firenze?
Copy !req
342. I think not.
Copy !req
343. What if he came upon a note
in the Capponi Library,
Copy !req
344. say, from Guido de Cavalcanti?
Copy !req
345. Would he recognise that?
Copy !req
346. I think not.
Copy !req
347. They're still arguing.
Copy !req
348. The Capponi correspondence
goes back to the 13th century.
Copy !req
349. Sogliato wants the job for his nephew,
Copy !req
350. but the scholars seem satisfied
with the temporary guy they appointed.
Copy !req
351. If he's such an expert on Dante,
let him lecture on Dante to the studiolo.
Copy !req
352. Let him face them if he can.
Copy !req
353. I look forward to it.
Let's set a date.
Copy !req
354. Very well. On the 14th.
Copy !req
355. Dr Fell?
Copy !req
356. Chief Inspector Rinaldo Pazzi
of the Questura.
Copy !req
357. Commendatore. How can I be of service?
Copy !req
358. I'm sorry.
I'm investigating the disappearance
Copy !req
359. of your predecessor,
Copy !req
360. Signore de Bonaventura.
I was wondering if...
Copy !req
361. "Predecessor" implies I have the job.
Copy !req
362. Unfortunately, I don't, not yet,
though I am hopeful.
Copy !req
363. They are letting me look after the library,
for a stipend.
Copy !req
364. Hmm.
Copy !req
365. The officers who first checked
Copy !req
366. didn't find any sort of farewell
or suicide note.
Copy !req
367. I was wondering if you...
Copy !req
368. If I happen to come across anything
in the Capponi Library,
Copy !req
369. stuffed in a drawer or book,
yes, I'll call you at once.
Copy !req
370. Thank you.
Copy !req
371. You've been reassigned.
Copy !req
372. Pardon?
Copy !req
373. You were on the Il Mostro case,
I'm sure I read.
Copy !req
374. - Yes, that's right.
- Now you're on this.
Copy !req
375. This is much less grand a case,
I would think.
Copy !req
376. Well, if I thought of my work in those terms,
yes, I guess I'd agree.
Copy !req
377. - A missing person.
- Sorry?
Copy !req
378. Were you unfairly dismissed
from the grander case,
Copy !req
379. or did you deserve it?
Copy !req
380. Regarding this one, Dr Fell,
Copy !req
381. are the signore's personal effects
still at the palazzo?
Copy !req
382. Mmm-hmm.
Copy !req
383. Packed neatly in four cases
with an inventory.
Copy !req
384. Alas, no note.
Copy !req
385. Mmm.
Copy !req
386. Well, I'll send someone over
to pick them up.
Copy !req
387. And thank you for your help.
Copy !req
388. Hey, thanks.
Copy !req
389. How's it going? Any leads?
Copy !req
390. Yeah, they're all leads,
they just don't lead to him.
Copy !req
391. - I don't know how you live with this stuff.
- Oh, God.
Copy !req
392. This is from
The Guinness Book of World Records,
Copy !req
393. congratulating me on being
"The Female FBI Agent
Copy !req
394. "Who Has Shot and Killed the Most People."
Copy !req
395. Geoffrey, would you excuse me, please?
Copy !req
396. Sure.
Copy !req
397. Dear Clarice,
Copy !req
398. I have followed with enthusiasm
Copy !req
399. the course of your disgrace
and public shaming.
Copy !req
400. My own never bothered me,
Copy !req
401. except for the inconvenience
of being incarcerated,
Copy !req
402. but you may lack perspective.
Copy !req
403. In our discussions down in the dungeon,
Copy !req
404. it was apparent to me that your father,
the dead night watchman,
Copy !req
405. figures largely in your value system.
Copy !req
406. I think your success in putting an end
to Jame Gumb's career as a couturier
Copy !req
407. pleased you most because you could
imagine your father being pleased.
Copy !req
408. But now, alas,
you're in bad odour with the FBI.
Copy !req
409. Do you imagine your daddy being shamed
by your disgrace?
Copy !req
410. Do you see him in his plain pine box
crushed by your failure?
Copy !req
411. The sorry, petty end of a promising career?
Copy !req
412. What is worst
about this humiliation, Clarice?
Copy !req
413. Is it how your failure
will reflect on your mommy and daddy?
Copy !req
414. Is your worst fear that people will now
and forever believe they were, indeed,
Copy !req
415. just good old trailer-camp,
tornado-bait, white trash,
Copy !req
416. and that perhaps you are, too?
Copy !req
417. Mmm?
Copy !req
418. By the way, I couldn't help noticing
on the FBI's rather dull public website,
Copy !req
419. that I have been hoisted from the Bureau's
archives of the common criminal,
Copy !req
420. and elevated to the more prestigious
Ten Most Wanted list.
Copy !req
421. Is this coincidence,
or are you back on the case?
Copy !req
422. If so, goody, goody,
Copy !req
423. 'cause I need to come out of retirement
and return to public life.
Copy !req
424. I imagine you sitting
in a dark basement room,
Copy !req
425. bent over papers and computer screens.
Copy !req
426. Is that accurate?
Please tell me truly, Special Agent Starling.
Copy !req
427. Regards, your old pal, Hannibal Lecter, M.D.
Copy !req
428. P.S., clearly this new assignment
is not your choice.
Copy !req
429. Rather, I suppose it is part of the bargain,
but you accepted it, Clarice.
Copy !req
430. Your job is to craft my doom,
Copy !req
431. so I am not sure how well I should wish you,
Copy !req
432. but I'm sure we'll have a lot of fun.
Copy !req
433. Ta-ta. "H."
Copy !req
434. On the letter,
there's one partial fingerprint, here.
Copy !req
435. - Not enough to hold up in court, but...
- I know it's him.
Copy !req
436. Where he was when he wrote it,
is what I need.
Copy !req
437. Well, the paper isn't gonna help.
Copy !req
438. And, yes, it's linen fibre,
yes, it's on the expensive side,
Copy !req
439. but, no, it isn't so rare
that you're not gonna be able to find it
Copy !req
440. in a thousand different stationery stores
throughout the world.
Copy !req
441. It's the same with the ink,
and the same with the wax.
Copy !req
442. And your Las Vegas postmark,
well, you can check it out,
Copy !req
443. but I'll bet you a dollar
it came from are-mailing service.
Copy !req
444. No, Las Vegas would be the last place
he'd be.
Copy !req
445. It'd be an assault on his sense of taste.
Copy !req
446. Don't you feel eyes
moving over your body, Clarice?
Copy !req
447. I hardly see how you couldn't.
Copy !req
448. And don't your eyes move
over the things you want?
Copy !req
449. All right, then, tell me how.
Copy !req
450. No. It's your turn to tell me, Clarice.
Copy !req
451. You don't have any more vacations
to sell on Anthrax Island.
Copy !req
452. Quid pro quo, Clarice.
I tell you things, you tell me things.
Copy !req
453. Not about this case, about yourself.
Copy !req
454. Quid pro quo.
Copy !req
455. Yes or no, Clarice?
Copy !req
456. Hand cream.
Copy !req
457. Raw ambergris base.
Copy !req
458. Tennessee lavender.
Copy !req
459. Trace of something else.
Copy !req
460. - Fleece.
- Lovely.
Copy !req
461. - What's ambergris?
- Ambergris is a whale product.
Copy !req
462. Alas, much as we'd like to,
we can't import it. Endangered Species Act.
Copy !req
463. Where isn't it illegal?
Copy !req
464. Japan, of course.
Couple of places in Europe.
Copy !req
465. You'd almost certainly find it
somewhere in Paris, Rome, Amsterdam.
Copy !req
466. Maybe London.
Copy !req
467. This bouquet was hand-engineered
to someone's specifications.
Copy !req
468. Is there any way of knowing which shops?
Copy !req
469. Of course. We'll give you a list. It'll be short.
Copy !req
470. - I need opera tickets.
- I don't think I got any on me.
Copy !req
471. It's sold out, whatever it's called.
Copy !req
472. It's the pretty, young wife
with the ever-open beak
Copy !req
473. who needs opera tickets.
Copy !req
474. - Benetti.
- What?
Copy !req
475. - Rewind it.
- I can't rewind it.
Copy !req
476. I'm making a copy, I'm recording.
Copy !req
477. What is this?
Copy !req
478. Security camera from a perfume shop
in Via Della Scala.
Copy !req
479. FBI through Interpol requested a copy.
Copy !req
480. - Why?
- They didn't say.
Copy !req
481. They didn't say?
Copy !req
482. No. It was actually kind of weird,
like they were making a point not to say.
Copy !req
483. Hmm.
Copy !req
484. - Are we going to the opera?
- Yes.
Copy !req
485. - Sorry. Yes, we are going.
- You got tickets.
Copy !req
486. No, but I will.
In fact, I was just about to look here.
Copy !req
487. Please not the back row.
I would like to see it this time.
Copy !req
488. Nowhere near the back row,
no matter what the cost.
Copy !req
489. Tell me, Clarice,
wouldn't you want to harm those
Copy !req
490. who've forced you to consider it, though?
Copy !req
491. It's perfectly okay to admit it.
Copy !req
492. It's perfectly au naturel
to want to taste the enemy.
Copy !req
493. It just feels so good. Tell me, Clarice,
Copy !req
494. what is your
worst memory of childhood?
Copy !req
495. - Jesus, Starling!
- Can I help you, Mr Krendler?
Copy !req
496. What the hell you doing
sitting there in the dark, Starling?
Copy !req
497. - Thinking about cannibalism.
- People in Justice are thinking, too.
Copy !req
498. You know that?
Copy !req
499. They're thinking,
"What exactly is she doing about Lecter?"
Copy !req
500. Aren't you curious
why he dines on his victims?
Copy !req
501. And what's the point of that?
Copy !req
502. What, are you writing a book,
or you catching a crook?
Copy !req
503. To show his contempt
for those who exasperate him.
Copy !req
504. Ah!
Copy !req
505. Or sometimes to perform a public service.
Copy !req
506. In the case of the flutist, Benjamin Raspail,
Copy !req
507. he did it to improve the sound
of the Baltimore Philharmonic Orchestra,
Copy !req
508. serving the not-so-talented
flute player's sweetbreads to the Board,
Copy !req
509. with a nice Montrachet at $700 a bottle.
Copy !req
510. Well...
Copy !req
511. That meal began with green oysters
from the Gironde,
Copy !req
512. followed by the sweetbreads, a sorbet,
Copy !req
513. and then you can read here
in Gourmet Cuisine,
Copy !req
514. "A notable dark and glossy ragout,
the constituents never determined."
Copy !req
515. I always figured him for a queer.
Copy !req
516. - Why would you say that, Paul?
- Oh, all this artsy-fartsy stuff.
Copy !req
517. Chamber music, tea party food.
Not that I mean anything personal,
Copy !req
518. if you've got a lot of sympathy
for those people.
Copy !req
519. What I came here
to impress upon you, Starling,
Copy !req
520. is I'd better see cooperation.
Copy !req
521. There are no little fiefdoms here.
Copy !req
522. I wanna be copied
on every 302, you understand?
Copy !req
523. Mmm-hmm.
Copy !req
524. If you work with me,
Copy !req
525. then your so-called career here
might improve.
Copy !req
526. If you don't, then all I have to do
Copy !req
527. is draw a line through your name
rather than under it, and it's over.
Copy !req
528. Paul, what is it with you?
Copy !req
529. I told you to go home to your wife.
That was wrong.
Copy !req
530. Don't flatter yourself, Starling.
That was a long time ago.
Copy !req
531. Why would I hold that against you?
Copy !req
532. Hmm?
Copy !req
533. And besides, this town is full of corn-pone
country pussy.
Copy !req
534. That said, I wouldn't mind
having a go with you right now,
Copy !req
535. if you wanna reconsider.
Copy !req
536. In the gym, anytime,
Copy !req
537. no pads.
Copy !req
538. 16-point match, Mr Verger.
Copy !req
539. Bingo.
Copy !req
540. - Carlo?
- Mason?
Copy !req
541. Very well. Well.
Copy !req
542. - Am I coming to see you?
- Yeah, soon, I hope,
Copy !req
543. but first, I need you to pack off the boys.
Copy !req
544. - Now?
- Yes, I know.
Copy !req
545. The day you never thought
would arrive, has.
Copy !req
546. Now, Cordell will fax the veterinary forms
directly to Animal and Plant Health,
Copy !req
547. but you need to get the vet affidavits
from Sardinia.
Copy !req
548. - How are they?
- They are big, Mason, very big.
Copy !req
549. Tommaso.
Copy !req
550. - Say again?
- They are big, Mason, really big.
Copy !req
551. Maybe 270 kilos.
Copy !req
552. Oh, wow!
Copy !req
553. Can you hear?
Copy !req
554. Hear!
Copy !req
555. Oh, they sound fantastic.
Copy !req
556. Oh, super.
Copy !req
557. The full balance of the money
is payable upon receipt of the doctor alive.
Copy !req
558. Of course, you won't have
to seize him yourself,
Copy !req
559. rather, just point him out.
Copy !req
560. In fact, it's preferable to all concerned,
Copy !req
561. if that's the extent of your involvement
from this point.
Copy !req
562. I prefer to stay involved,
to make sure things go right.
Copy !req
563. Professionals will see to that.
Copy !req
564. I am a professional.
Copy !req
565. You enjoy the performance, Commendatore?
Copy !req
566. Oh, very much.
Copy !req
567. Allegra, this is Dr Fell,
curator of the Capponi Library.
Copy !req
568. Signora Pazzi. I'm honoured.
Copy !req
569. - Are you from America, Doctor?
- Not originally. I've travelled there.
Copy !req
570. I've always wanted to visit,
New England, especially.
Copy !req
571. I've enjoyed many excellent meals there.
Copy !req
572. I noticed you wrapped up in the libretto.
Copy !req
573. Thought this might amuse you.
Copy !req
574. - Dante's first sonnet from La Vita Nuova.
- Mmm-hmm. It's beautiful.
Copy !req
575. - Rinaldo, look at this.
- Well, yeah, I can see.
Copy !req
576. "Joyous love, seem to me
Copy !req
577. "The while he held my heart in his hands
Copy !req
578. "And in his arms my lady lay asleep
Copy !req
579. "Wrapped in a veil."
Copy !req
580. "He woke her then
and trembling and obedient
Copy !req
581. "She ate that burning heart out of his hand
Copy !req
582. "Weeping, I saw him then depart from me."
Copy !req
583. Dr Fell, do you believe a man could
become so obsessed with a woman
Copy !req
584. from a single encounter?
Copy !req
585. Could he daily feel a stab of hunger for her,
Copy !req
586. and find nourishment
in the very sight of her?
Copy !req
587. I think so.
Copy !req
588. Would she see through the bars of his plight
Copy !req
589. and ache for him?
Copy !req
590. Please keep that.
Copy !req
591. - Oh, I couldn't.
- I insist.
Copy !req
592. Commendatore. Allegra.
Copy !req
593. Goodbye.
Copy !req
594. - Let's get something to eat.
- Of course.
Copy !req
595. Why not?
Copy !req
596. Is that you, Doctor?
Copy !req
597. Questura. Pandolfini.
Copy !req
598. I'd like to speak with Chief Inspector
Rinaldo Pazzi, please.
Copy !req
599. This is Agent Clarice Starling
from the American FBI.
Copy !req
600. One moment.
Copy !req
601. Pazzi!
Copy !req
602. - FBI.
- I'm not here.
Copy !req
603. Pazzi.
Copy !req
604. Inspector Pazzi, it's Agent Starling
from the FBI. How do you do?
Copy !req
605. Um...
Copy !req
606. Actually, I was just leaving for the day.
Copy !req
607. - Can I call you back tomorrow?
- Oh, this won't take long.
Copy !req
608. And first of all, I'd like to thank you
Copy !req
609. for sending us the security tape
from the perfume store.
Copy !req
610. When I say you,
I mean your department, Agent Benetti.
Copy !req
611. Is he there? Can I speak with him?
Copy !req
612. - I'm sorry, he's gone home.
- That's all right.
Copy !req
613. I should tell you this,
rather than him, anyway.
Copy !req
614. I'm late
for an important appointment.
Copy !req
615. Well, the person I'm looking for, Inspector,
Copy !req
616. who was indeed shown on that tape,
is Hannibal Lecter.
Copy !req
617. - Who?
- Dr Hannibal Lecter.
Copy !req
618. - You've never heard of him?
- I'm not familiar.
Copy !req
619. And the tape confirms that he is,
or was recently, in Florence.
Copy !req
620. Really?
Copy !req
621. He's a very dangerous man, Inspector.
Copy !req
622. He's killed 14 people that we know of.
Copy !req
623. - I really have to go, Miss...
- Starling. Just another minute.
Copy !req
624. - Are you sure you've never heard of him?
- No, I haven't.
Copy !req
625. Because I'm confused.
I'm confused because someone there
Copy !req
626. has been accessing our private VICAP files
on Dr Lecter, with some regularity,
Copy !req
627. on your computer.
Copy !req
628. Oh. Everybody uses
everybody's computer here.
Copy !req
629. Maybe one of the detectives on Il Mostro
was looking at profiles of killers...
Copy !req
630. I'm speaking about the computer
at your home, sir.
Copy !req
631. You're trying to catch him yourself,
aren't you? For the reward?
Copy !req
632. I cannot warn you strongly enough
against that.
Copy !req
633. He killed three policemen down in Memphis
while in custody,
Copy !req
634. tearing the face off one of them,
and he will kill you, too.
Copy !req
635. I want him
out of Tuscany fast.
Copy !req
636. Believe me, he'll be gone from
the face of the Earth fast,
Copy !req
637. feet first.
Copy !req
638. Because of his avarice,
and his betrayal of the emperor's trust,
Copy !req
639. Pier Della Vigna was disgraced,
blinded and imprisoned.
Copy !req
640. Dante's pilgrim finds Pier Della Vigna
on the seventh level of the Inferno.
Copy !req
641. Like Judas Iscariot, he died by hanging.
Copy !req
642. So Judas and Pier Della Vigna
are linked, in Dante,
Copy !req
643. by the avarice he saw in them.
Copy !req
644. In fact, avarice and hanging
are linked in the medieval mind.
Copy !req
645. Now, this is the earliest known depiction
of the crucifixion,
Copy !req
646. carved on an ivory box in Gaul,
about A.D. 400.
Copy !req
647. It includes the death by hanging of Judas,
Copy !req
648. his face upturned to the branch
that suspends him.
Copy !req
649. Here he is again,
on the doors of the Benevento Cathedral,
Copy !req
650. this time with his bowels falling out.
Copy !req
651. Ah, Commendatore Pazzi.
Copy !req
652. It wasn't easy,
but I got this number.
Copy !req
653. Without telling why, Inspector...
Copy !req
654. - Sorry.
- Not at all. Welcome.
Copy !req
655. - Please join us.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
656. Now, in this plate from
the 15th century edition of the Inferno,
Copy !req
657. Pier Della Vigna's body
hangs from a bleeding tree.
Copy !req
658. I will not belabour the obvious parallel
with Judas Iscariot,
Copy !req
659. but Dante Alighieri
needed no drawn illustration.
Copy !req
660. It is his genius to make Pier Della Vigna,
now in hell,
Copy !req
661. speak in strained hisses
and coughing sibilants,
Copy !req
662. as though he is hanging still.
Copy !req
663. Avarice, hanging, self-destruction.
Copy !req
664. "I make my own home
Copy !req
665. "be my gallows."
Copy !req
666. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen,
for your kind attention.
Copy !req
667. I'm not a scholar,
but I think you've got the job.
Copy !req
668. Thank you.
Copy !req
669. - May I buy you a drink?
- How kind of you, I'd like that.
Copy !req
670. - I'll be a minute gathering my things.
- Oh! Take your time.
Copy !req
671. Yeah?
Copy !req
672. Allegra, I'll be home
just a little later than I said.
Copy !req
673. I'm taking Dr Fell out for a drink. Yes.
Copy !req
674. I can see the people coming out now.
Copy !req
675. Yes. Bye, honey.
Copy !req
676. - My wife.
- Oh.
Copy !req
677. Oh, I should have shown them this one.
Copy !req
678. I can't imagine how I missed it.
Remember? I told you about it.
Copy !req
679. It's a rendering I found
in the Capponi Library.
Copy !req
680. Can you make it out?
Copy !req
681. There's a name there,
the one I told you about.
Copy !req
682. It's your ancestor, Commendatore,
hanging beneath these very windows,
Copy !req
683. Francesco de Pazzi.
Copy !req
684. On a related subject, I must confess to you,
I'm giving very serious thought
Copy !req
685. to eating your wife.
Copy !req
686. If you tell me what I need to know,
Commendatore,
Copy !req
687. it might be convenient for me
to leave Florence without my meal.
Copy !req
688. So, I'll ask you the questions,
and then we'll see, all right? Okay?
Copy !req
689. So...
Copy !req
690. Now, was it Mason Verger you sold me to?
Copy !req
691. Mmm-mmm. Blink twice for "yes,"
once for "no."
Copy !req
692. Was it Mason Verger you sold me to?
Copy !req
693. Yes. Good. Thank you.
And are his men waiting for me outside?
Copy !req
694. Was that a single blink?
Copy !req
695. Oh, you're confused.
Copy !req
696. Well, please don't be confused,
Copy !req
697. because I may have to fillet
Signora Pazzi after all.
Copy !req
698. Have you told anyone
in the Questura about me?
Copy !req
699. No, I thought not.
Copy !req
700. Have you told Allegra?
Copy !req
701. No? Are you sure?
Copy !req
702. I believe you.
Copy !req
703. Okey-dokey, here we go.
Copy !req
704. Okay.
Copy !req
705. Your heart is really palpitating.
Copy !req
706. Oh, it's not your heart.
Copy !req
707. Well, shall I answer it?
Copy !req
708. I've gone above you.
I've spoken to your section chief.
Copy !req
709. Someday, you'll thank me, or you won't.
I don't care, you'll be alive.
Copy !req
710. Inspector Pazzi?
Copy !req
711. Is this Clarice?
Copy !req
712. Well, hello, Clarice.
I'm afraid I have bad news for you.
Copy !req
713. - Is he dead?
- Did you get my note?
Copy !req
714. I hope you liked the skin cream,
I had it specially made for you.
Copy !req
715. Is he dead, Dr Lecter?
Copy !req
716. Clarice, there is nothing in this world
that I would love more
Copy !req
717. than to be able to chat with you.
Copy !req
718. Unfortunately, you've caught me
at an awkward moment.
Copy !req
719. Please forgive me. See you around.
Copy !req
720. An old friend.
Copy !req
721. Okay, hold on.
Copy !req
722. Here we go.
Copy !req
723. I'll go around back.
Cut him! Kill him if you have to!
Copy !req
724. What's it to be, bowels in or bowels out?
Like Judas.
Copy !req
725. Are you confused?
Then I'll decide for you, if you'll permit me.
Copy !req
726. Carlo!
Copy !req
727. Carlo!
Copy !req
728. Yes?
Copy !req
729. Good evening.
Copy !req
730. Cordell,
Copy !req
731. to you, does that look like a wave goodbye,
Copy !req
732. or hello?
Copy !req
733. So, what do you think?
Copy !req
734. Does Lecter wanna fuck her,
or kill her, or eat her, or what?
Copy !req
735. Probably all three,
Copy !req
736. though I wouldn't wanna predict
in what order.
Copy !req
737. Here's what I think.
Copy !req
738. No matter how Barney
might wanna romanticize it,
Copy !req
739. or make it "Beauty and the Beast,"
Copy !req
740. Lecter's object,
as I know from personal experience,
Copy !req
741. has always been degradation and suffering.
Copy !req
742. Cordell, get this damn thing off me,
I can't breathe in this thing.
Copy !req
743. He comes in the guise of a mentor,
as he did with me, and her,
Copy !req
744. but it's distress that excites him.
Copy !req
745. To draw him,
Copy !req
746. she needs to be distressed.
Copy !req
747. To make her attractive to him,
let him see her distressed.
Copy !req
748. Let the damage he sees
suggest the damage he could do.
Copy !req
749. When the fox hears the rabbit scream,
he comes a-running,
Copy !req
750. but not to help.
Copy !req
751. I don't understand.
Copy !req
752. Well,
there's nothing to understand, Paul.
Copy !req
753. All you have to understand
is what it's worth to you.
Copy !req
754. No, no. I don't understand
why she didn't turn this over.
Copy !req
755. I mean, she's such a straight arrow.
Copy !req
756. She didn't turn it over,
because she didn't receive it.
Copy !req
757. She didn't receive it,
because it was never sent.
Copy !req
758. It was never sent,
because Lecter didn't write it.
Copy !req
759. He didn't write it, because I did.
Copy !req
760. Oh!
Copy !req
761. - So, what do you think?
- I think you'd have been better off
Copy !req
762. if you never got her out of trouble
in the first place.
Copy !req
763. Oh, woulda, shoulda, coulda.
I meant what do you think about the money?
Copy !req
764. Five.
Copy !req
765. Oh, let's just toss it off, like, "Five."
Copy !req
766. Let's say it with the respect it deserves.
Copy !req
767. $500,000.
Copy !req
768. That's better, but not much.
Copy !req
769. - And will it work?
- It'll work.
Copy !req
770. - It won't be pretty.
- What ever is?
Copy !req
771. Cocksucker.
Copy !req
772. I've never seen this before
in my life.
Copy !req
773. Then how do you account
for its being found in your office?
Copy !req
774. Your basement?
Copy !req
775. How do you want me to answer that,
Mr Krendler?
Copy !req
776. Let me ask you this. What possible reason
might I have to withhold it?
Copy !req
777. Well, perhaps because of the nature
of its content.
Copy !req
778. Reads to me like...
Copy !req
779. - Like a love letter.
- Has it been tested for prints?
Copy !req
780. - No prints on it. None on the last one.
- Handwriting analysis?
Copy !req
781. "Did you ever think, Clarice,
why the Philistines don't understand you?
Copy !req
782. "It's because you're the answer
to Samson's riddle.
Copy !req
783. "You are the honey in the lion."
Copy !req
784. It sounds like him to me.
Copy !req
785. Do you mean, Mr Krendler,
like a homosexual?
Copy !req
786. Like a nut with a crush.
Copy !req
787. - Excuse me, Director Noonan...
- Agent Starling,
Copy !req
788. I am placing you on administrative leave
till document analysis tells me,
Copy !req
789. unequivocally, a mistake's been made.
Copy !req
790. In the meantime, you remain eligible
for insurance and medical benefits.
Copy !req
791. Surrender your weapons
and your identification to Agent Pearsall.
Copy !req
792. - I wanna say something, I think I'm entitled.
- Go ahead.
Copy !req
793. I think Mr Mason Verger is trying
to capture Dr Lecter
Copy !req
794. for the purposes of personal revenge.
Copy !req
795. I think Mr Krendler is in collusion with him,
Copy !req
796. and wants the FBI's efforts against Dr Lecter
to work for Mr Verger.
Copy !req
797. I think Mr Krendler is being paid to do this.
Copy !req
798. You're lucky you're not sworn
here today, Starling.
Copy !req
799. Swear me! You swear, too!
Copy !req
800. Clarice, if the evidence is lacking,
Copy !req
801. you'll be entitled to full reinstatement
without prejudice,
Copy !req
802. if you don't do or say anything
in the meantime
Copy !req
803. that would make that impossible.
Copy !req
804. Relieved of field duty
Copy !req
805. pending an internal investigation
into the charges,
Copy !req
806. Special Agent Clarice Starling,
a 10-year veteran on the Bureau,
Copy !req
807. began her career with an assignment
to interview lethal madman Hannibal Lecter.
Copy !req
808. Earlier today, we heard comments
Copy !req
809. from Justice Department
spokesman Paul Krendler.
Copy !req
810. There he is.
Krendler! Krendler!
Copy !req
811. Can you comment on
the Justice Department's
Copy !req
812. decision at this morning's meeting?
Copy !req
813. The FBI and the Justice Department
are looking very carefully into the charges,
Copy !req
814. and, yes, they're extremely serious.
Copy !req
815. I'd like to add a personal note, though.
Copy !req
816. Starling is one of the best agents
that we have.
Copy !req
817. - No, no, no, no, no. Stay. Stay.
- Having known her for a number of years,
Copy !req
818. I would be very surprised
if these accusations
Copy !req
819. turn out to be true.
Copy !req
820. Is the Justice Department
and the FBI united in this decision?
Copy !req
821. It's much too soon
to condemn her.
Copy !req
822. Good boy.
Copy !req
823. Ah! And this.
Copy !req
824. I think she's nice.
She's always been nice to me, polite.
Copy !req
825. Don't you think?
Copy !req
826. Do you know
what a roller pigeon is, Barney?
Copy !req
827. Well, roller pigeons climb high and fast,
Copy !req
828. then roll over and fall just as fast
towards the earth.
Copy !req
829. There are shallow rollers,
and there are deep rollers.
Copy !req
830. You can't breed two deep rollers,
Copy !req
831. or their young, their offspring,
will roll all the way down, hit, and die.
Copy !req
832. Agent Starling is a deep roller.
Copy !req
833. Let's hope one of her parents was not.
Copy !req
834. Hello?
Copy !req
835. The power in that battery
is low, Clarice.
Copy !req
836. I would have changed it,
but I didn't wanna wake you.
Copy !req
837. You're gonna have to use the other one
in the charger.
Copy !req
838. Hopefully, the light on it is green by now.
Copy !req
839. Because this is gonna be a long call,
and I can't let you off,
Copy !req
840. because even though you've been
stripped of your duties,
Copy !req
841. I know you wouldn't abandon them.
You'll try to put on a trace.
Copy !req
842. So, we'll disconnect long enough
for you to exchange the battery in the phone
Copy !req
843. for the one in the charger.
Copy !req
844. Shall we say three seconds?
Copy !req
845. Are you ready?
Copy !req
846. - Yes.
- Go.
Copy !req
847. - Very good.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
848. Remember, Clarice, if you get caught
with a concealed, unlicensed firearm
Copy !req
849. in the District of Columbia,
the penalty is pretty stiff.
Copy !req
850. But bring the guns if you have to.
Now get in your car.
Copy !req
851. The reason we're doing it like this, Clarice,
is because I like to watch you as we speak,
Copy !req
852. with your eyes open.
Copy !req
853. No, it does not excite me, it pleases me.
Copy !req
854. You have very shapely feet.
Copy !req
855. Where are we now? Call it out.
Copy !req
856. - Massachusetts Avenue.
- Take it.
Copy !req
857. I thought, to begin with,
you might tell me how you're feeling.
Copy !req
858. About what?
Copy !req
859. The masters you serve,
and how they've treated you.
Copy !req
860. Your career, such as it is.
Copy !req
861. Your life, Clarice.
Copy !req
862. I thought we might talk about yours.
Copy !req
863. - What's the next cross street?
- Capitol Street.
Copy !req
864. In two blocks, make a left
into Union Station. Park.
Copy !req
865. My life? What is there to say about mine?
Copy !req
866. I have been in a state of hibernation
for some time.
Copy !req
867. A little inactive, but now I'm back home,
Copy !req
868. I'm very happy and very healthy.
Copy !req
869. - You, though, it's you I'm worried about.
- I'm fine.
Copy !req
870. No, you're certainly not fine, Clarice.
Copy !req
871. You fell in love with the Bureau,
the institution,
Copy !req
872. only to discover,
after giving it everything you've got,
Copy !req
873. that it does not love you back.
Copy !req
874. That, in fact, it resents you.
Copy !req
875. Resents you more than the husband
and children you gave up to it.
Copy !req
876. Why is that, do you think?
Copy !req
877. - Why are you so resented, Clarice?
- Tell me.
Copy !req
878. Tell you? God bless you. Well, isn't it clear?
Copy !req
879. You serve the idea of order, Clarice,
Copy !req
880. they don't.
Copy !req
881. You believe in the oath you took, they don't.
Copy !req
882. You feel it is your duty
to protect the sheep, they don't.
Copy !req
883. They don't like you
because you're not like them.
Copy !req
884. They hate you and they envy you.
Copy !req
885. They're weak and unruly,
and believe in nothing.
Copy !req
886. Mason Verger wants to kill you, Dr Lecter.
Copy !req
887. Turn yourself in to me,
and I promise no one will hurt you.
Copy !req
888. Will you stay with me in my prison cell
and hold my hand, Clarice?
Copy !req
889. We could have some fun.
Copy !req
890. No, Mason Verger does not want to kill me,
any more than I want to kill him.
Copy !req
891. He just wants to see me suffer
in some unimaginable way.
Copy !req
892. He is rather twisted, you know.
Copy !req
893. - Have you had the pleasure of meeting him?
- I have.
Copy !req
894. - Face to face, so to speak?
- Yes.
Copy !req
895. - Attractive, isn't he?
- Dr Lecter?
Copy !req
896. Dr Lecter?
Copy !req
897. Okay, back to you. I want to know
what it is you think you will do,
Copy !req
898. now that everything in the world
you've ever cared about
Copy !req
899. - has been taken away from you.
- I don't know, Dr Lecter.
Copy !req
900. Tell me, Clarice, do you think you'll work
as a chambermaid
Copy !req
901. at a motel on Route 66,
Copy !req
902. just like your mommy?
Copy !req
903. Huh?
Copy !req
904. May I have your attention, please.
Copy !req
905. Will Mrs Clark meet
your arriving party at Gate B?
Copy !req
906. What are you thinking now?
Copy !req
907. Are you paying attention to me,
ex-Special Agent Starling?
Copy !req
908. Are you, by any chance,
trying to trace my whereabouts?
Copy !req
909. - I'm being followed, Dr Lecter.
- I know, I've seen them.
Copy !req
910. And now you're in a real dilemma,
aren't you?
Copy !req
911. Do you continue to try to find me,
knowing that you're leading them to me?
Copy !req
912. Do you have so much faith
in your abilities, Clarice,
Copy !req
913. that you honestly believe you could
somehow simultaneously
Copy !req
914. arrest me and them?
Copy !req
915. It could get very messy, Clarice,
like the fish market.
Copy !req
916. - Hey, Clarice.
- Yeah?
Copy !req
917. - What if I did it for you?
- Did what?
Copy !req
918. Harmed them, Clarice.
The ones who have harmed you.
Copy !req
919. What if I made them scream apologies?
Copy !req
920. No, I shouldn't even say it,
Copy !req
921. because you'll feel,
with your perfect grasp of right and wrong,
Copy !req
922. that you were somehow accompli.
Copy !req
923. - Don't help me.
- No. Of course not.
Copy !req
924. Forget I said it.
Copy !req
925. Piero.
Copy !req
926. Clarice, you were very, very warm.
You were so close.
Copy !req
927. And now you're getting colder again.
Copy !req
928. Yeah, warmer again.
Copy !req
929. Well, I think I've been generous enough
with you, and the clues.
Copy !req
930. - You're on your own now, Clarice.
- Dr Lecter.
Copy !req
931. Hope you like them, Clarice. Ta-ta.
Copy !req
932. Go.
Copy !req
933. Get out of the way!
Copy !req
934. I know the first thing an hysteric says is,
"I am not an hysteric,"
Copy !req
935. but I am not an hysteric. I'm calm.
Copy !req
936. I'll ask you one time,
think before you answer.
Copy !req
937. Think about every good thing you ever did.
Copy !req
938. Think about what you swore.
Copy !req
939. Two men in a van, a third driving.
Copy !req
940. Another man down.
They put him in the back.
Copy !req
941. I think it was Lecter.
I've given you the licence plate.
Copy !req
942. I'm reporting it all to you again,
in front of witnesses.
Copy !req
943. All right.
Copy !req
944. I'll go with it as a kidnapping.
Copy !req
945. I'll send someone out
with the local authorities,
Copy !req
946. if they'll let us on the property
without a warrant.
Copy !req
947. - I should go, too. You could deputize me.
- No. You're not going.
Copy !req
948. You're going home,
where you'll wait for me to call
Copy !req
949. and tell you what, if anything, we found.
Copy !req
950. Thank Mr Verger for letting us look around.
Sorry if we inconvenienced him.
Copy !req
951. Not at all, he's always happy to see you.
Copy !req
952. Phone.
Copy !req
953. What number, please?
Copy !req
954. Carlo.
Copy !req
955. Piero!
Copy !req
956. Give me one.
Copy !req
957. - Hello?
- How is he?
Copy !req
958. Sleeping.
Copy !req
959. Bring him home.
Copy !req
960. You've reached
Clarice Starling. Please leave a message.
Copy !req
961. Pick up, Starling.
There was nothing out there.
Copy !req
962. I'm gonna say it again,
in case you didn't hear me clearly before,
Copy !req
963. you are not a law officer
while you're on suspension.
Copy !req
964. You're Joe Blow.
Copy !req
965. I hope for your sake you're in the bathroom.
Copy !req
966. Hylochoerus meinertzhageni.
Copy !req
967. Ring any bells
from high school biology, Doctor?
Copy !req
968. No?
Copy !req
969. Well, I could list
its most conspicuous features,
Copy !req
970. if that will help jog the memory.
Copy !req
971. Three pairs of incisors,
Copy !req
972. one pair of elongated canines,
Copy !req
973. three pairs of molars,
Copy !req
974. four pairs of premolars, upper and lower,
Copy !req
975. for a total of 44 teeth.
Copy !req
976. The meal will begin
with an hors d'oeuvre tartare.
Copy !req
977. Your feet.
Copy !req
978. The main course, the rest of you,
won't be served until seven hours later.
Copy !req
979. But during that time,
Copy !req
980. you'll be able to enjoy the effects
of the consumed appetizer
Copy !req
981. with a full-bodied saline drip.
Copy !req
982. I guess you wish now, you...
Copy !req
983. You'd fed the rest of me to the dogs. Hmm?
Copy !req
984. No, Mason.
Copy !req
985. No, I much prefer you the way you are.
Copy !req
986. So,
Copy !req
987. dinner at 8:00.
Copy !req
988. You will stay
for the evening's entertainment,
Copy !req
989. won't you, Cordell?
Copy !req
990. If it's all right with you, I think I'd rather not.
Copy !req
991. "Rather not"
Copy !req
992. or "will not"?
Copy !req
993. Your little brother must smell
almost as bad as you do by now.
Copy !req
994. Hold it! Hands where I can see them!
Copy !req
995. Quiet!
Copy !req
996. What was that? Cordell, quickly!
Copy !req
997. Down on your stomach!
Copy !req
998. - Good evening, Clarice. Just like old times.
- Shut up.
Copy !req
999. - Can you walk?
- I can try.
Copy !req
1000. - You look well.
- I'm gonna cut you loose.
Copy !req
1001. If you touch me, I will shoot you.
Copy !req
1002. - Understood.
- Do right, and you'll live through this.
Copy !req
1003. Spoken like a true Protestant. Better hurry.
Copy !req
1004. This might go faster
if you hand me the knife.
Copy !req
1005. There was a third in the loft.
No, Clarice. Behind me.
Copy !req
1006. Cordell, shoot him!
Get the gun and shoot him!
Copy !req
1007. - Go into the pen?
- Yes.
Copy !req
1008. - No. I'm staying out of this.
- You're involved, is what you are, in all of it!
Copy !req
1009. - Now do it!
- No.
Copy !req
1010. - Yes!
- Hey, Cordell! Why don't you push him in?
Copy !req
1011. You can always say it was me.
Copy !req
1012. Cordell!
Copy !req
1013. Cordell?
Copy !req
1014. Cordell!
Copy !req
1015. Yeah, Mary, it's me.
I decided to take off early.
Copy !req
1016. I'll be at my lake house all weekend.
Copy !req
1017. I don't want any calls
forwarded either, you understand?
Copy !req
1018. Whoever it is, they can all wait, okay?
Copy !req
1019. Mary, listen, it's Fourth of July,
for Christ sakes. Thank you.
Copy !req
1020. What the fuck?
Copy !req
1021. - Good. You brought the wine.
- Oh, God!
Copy !req
1022. This won't hurt a bit.
Copy !req
1023. We've traced your call,
and units will be there in about 10 minutes.
Copy !req
1024. If you can do it safely,
just get out of the house.
Copy !req
1025. Otherwise, stay on the phone with me.
Copy !req
1026. Ma'am? Are you there? Ma'am?
Copy !req
1027. We need to make sure
they feel welcome.
Copy !req
1028. Are those shallots?
Mmm-hmm. And caper berries.
Copy !req
1029. That butter smells wonderful.
Copy !req
1030. - You feeling hungry, Paul?
- Very.
Copy !req
1031. - What's the main course?
- Ah!
Copy !req
1032. You should never ask, it spoils the surprise.
Copy !req
1033. Clarice, what are you doing up?
You should be resting. Get back to bed.
Copy !req
1034. I'm hungry.
Copy !req
1035. - Hello, Paul.
- Paul, don't be rude.
Copy !req
1036. - Say, "Hello, Agent Starling."
- Hello, Agent Starling.
Copy !req
1037. I always wanted to watch you eat.
Copy !req
1038. What have you got in your hand, Clarice?
Something to bash me over the head with?
Copy !req
1039. Put it on the table.
Copy !req
1040. - Good girl.
- Hey, that's mine.
Copy !req
1041. Now, sit down.
Copy !req
1042. Clarice, love the dress. It's beautiful.
Copy !req
1043. - What do you think, Paul?
- Nice.
Copy !req
1044. - Nice.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
1045. Why don't you say grace, Paul?
Copy !req
1046. - Me?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
1047. - Grace?
- Sure.
Copy !req
1048. Okay.
Copy !req
1049. Bow your head.
Copy !req
1050. Father, we thank thee for thy blessings,
Copy !req
1051. and dedicate them to thy mercy,
we are about to receive.
Copy !req
1052. Forgive us all,
even white trash like Starling here,
Copy !req
1053. and bring her into my service. Amen.
Copy !req
1054. You know, I have to tell you, Paul,
Copy !req
1055. even the apostle Paul
couldn't have done better.
Copy !req
1056. - He hated women, too.
- May I have some wine, please?
Copy !req
1057. I don't think that's a good idea, Clarice,
not with the morphine.
Copy !req
1058. I think you should eat some broth. Okay?
Copy !req
1059. By the way, Starling,
Copy !req
1060. that was a job offering
I worked into the blessing.
Copy !req
1061. - I'm going to Congress, you know.
- Are you?
Copy !req
1062. Come around campaign headquarters.
Copy !req
1063. You could be a office girl!
Can you type and file?
Copy !req
1064. Can you take dictation? Take this down.
Copy !req
1065. Washington is full
of corn-pone country pussy.
Copy !req
1066. I took it down. You said it already.
Copy !req
1067. Paul, now you're being rude,
and I hate rude people.
Copy !req
1068. Drink your broth like a good boy.
Come on. Sip.
Copy !req
1069. Good.
Copy !req
1070. Well, that's not very good, buddy.
Copy !req
1071. I admit I added something to yours,
perhaps it's clashing with the cumin.
Copy !req
1072. But I assure you,
the next course is to die for.
Copy !req
1073. Ah, ah, ah.
Copy !req
1074. Come on, Clarice. No. That's a good girl.
Copy !req
1075. Good.
Copy !req
1076. Dr Lecter.
Copy !req
1077. You see, the brain itself feels no pain,
Clarice, if that concerns you.
Copy !req
1078. For example, Paul won't miss
this little piece here,
Copy !req
1079. which is the part of the prefrontal lobe
which they say is the seat of good manners.
Copy !req
1080. Your profile at the border stations
has five features.
Copy !req
1081. - I'll trade you.
- "Trade"?
Copy !req
1082. Stop now, and I'll tell you what they are.
Copy !req
1083. How does that word taste to you,
Clarice? Mmm?
Copy !req
1084. Cheap and metallic,
like sucking on a greasy coin?
Copy !req
1085. Who's Clarice?
Copy !req
1086. Agent Starling, Paul.
If you can't keep up with the conversation,
Copy !req
1087. better not try to join in at all.
Copy !req
1088. Me, Paul. I'm Starling.
Copy !req
1089. See. Here...
Copy !req
1090. Right here is the sac that contains the brain.
Copy !req
1091. I would really like some wine!
Copy !req
1092. - That smells great.
- Here. Like to try a little piece?
Copy !req
1093. I would really like some wine.
Copy !req
1094. - It is good.
- All right. Just a little.
Copy !req
1095. Okay.
Copy !req
1096. No?
Copy !req
1097. Given the chance,
you would deny me my life, wouldn't you?
Copy !req
1098. Not your life.
Copy !req
1099. My freedom. Just that.
You'd take that from me.
Copy !req
1100. And if you did, would they have you back,
do you think? The FBI?
Copy !req
1101. Those people you despise
almost as much as they despise you?
Copy !req
1102. Would they give you a medal, Clarice,
do you think?
Copy !req
1103. Would you have it professionally framed,
and hang it on your wall to look at,
Copy !req
1104. and remind you of your courage
and incorruptibility?
Copy !req
1105. All you would need for that, Clarice,
is a mirror.
Copy !req
1106. I had plans for that smart mouth,
Copy !req
1107. but I'm never gonna hire her... You now.
Copy !req
1108. Paul?
Copy !req
1109. - Huh?
- Remember what I said?
Copy !req
1110. If you can't be polite to our guests,
you have to sit at the kiddies' table.
Copy !req
1111. Don't get up, Clarice.
Paul will help me clear and make the coffee.
Copy !req
1112. Just think about what I said, Clarice.
Copy !req
1113. Coffee.
Copy !req
1114. I came halfway around the world
to watch you run, Clarice.
Copy !req
1115. Let me run, huh?
Copy !req
1116. Tell me, Clarice,
Copy !req
1117. would you ever say to me,
Copy !req
1118. "Stop. If you loved me, you'd stop"?
Copy !req
1119. Not in a thousand years.
Copy !req
1120. "Not in a thousand years."
Copy !req
1121. That's my girl.
Copy !req
1122. Now, that's really interesting, Clarice.
Copy !req
1123. I'm really pressed for time,
so where's the key?
Copy !req
1124. Where's the key?
Copy !req
1125. Okay.
Copy !req
1126. Above or below the wrist, Clarice?
Copy !req
1127. This is really gonna hurt.
Copy !req
1128. Show me your hands!
Copy !req
1129. Identify yourself!
Copy !req
1130. I'm Clarice Starling!
Copy !req
1131. FBI!
Copy !req
1132. - Hi.
- Hi. What's that?
Copy !req
1133. That's caviar.
Copy !req
1134. What are those?
Copy !req
1135. These are figs.
Copy !req
1136. And that?
Copy !req
1137. And this?
Copy !req
1138. That I don't think you would like.
Copy !req
1139. It looks good.
Copy !req
1140. - Oh, it is good.
- Can I have some?
Copy !req
1141. You're a very unusual boy, aren't you?
Copy !req
1142. - I couldn't eat what they gave me.
- Nor should you.
Copy !req
1143. It isn't even food,
as I understand the definition.
Copy !req
1144. Which is why I always bring my own.
Copy !req
1145. - Hmm.
- Hmm!
Copy !req
1146. So, which would you like to try?
Copy !req
1147. Aha!
Copy !req
1148. Well, I suppose it's all right.
Copy !req
1149. After all, as your mother tells you,
and my mother certainly told me,
Copy !req
1150. "It is important," she always used to say,
Copy !req
1151. "always to try new things."
Copy !req
1152. Open up.
Copy !req
1153. Ta-ta. H.
