[first lines]

Joe Merriwether: [sniffing the cigar] Cuban.

Agent Katherine Cowles: What's the word, Sawyer?

Agent Sawyer: Looks like a match.

Agent Katherine Cowles: [holds up three fingers to Merriwether]

Agent Sawyer: [on the phone] Yeah, it's Joe. We've got a series. Same M O, same signature, no DNA. Not one goddamn shred.

Agent Katherine Cowles: Dr. Clancy, before we go upstairs, with all due respect, I don't hold an ounce of confidence in the paranormal in general. I think it's a sham. I hope that's okay.

John Clancy: No problem at all. I feel the same about shrinks. After only one thing, your money. Give them your little finger, they'll take your whole hand.

Agent Katherine Cowles: Whoever said that has obviously never met a good one.

John Clancy: It was Sigmund Freud.
