Cadet Hayes? Rudolph Hayes? I'm Agent Doggett. This is Agent Reyes. (Hayes is smelling a dead arm; Doggett is confused) Is that part of the training here, Cadet - smelling body parts?
This man's flesh smells of creosote... but his skin is soft. Untanned. He worked indoors. A hardware store, probably. The tear marks at his elbow go from left to right. He was broadsided in a car accident. His hands gripped the wheel so hard.. his thumb bone snapped on impact.
You determined all that just by looking at that arm?
(stands, looks at them) I see things.
We came to thank you. Because of your analysis, we were able to work up a profile to catch the man who murdered those women.
What's the profile?
White male, twenty-five to thirty-five, ex-military. Employed near the bars where he met.. (Hayes shakes his head) ..why are you shaking your head?
The profile's wrong. Your killer is in his forties. A felon recently arrived from out of state. His parole officer thinks he's looking for a job. He already has one - working for organized crime. He's killed many people. He's going to keep on killing. (walks away)
(smiles) Kind of annoying, isn't he?
