drunk editor: Oh my God! what is your purpose?
Cartoonist: What?
Alcoholic Editor (lighting a cigarette, squinting at the cartoonist): It's profitable for anyone but you.
Cartoonist (frowning, puzzled): What do you mean by "profit"?
Ten years later
(at the cartoonist's house. The cartoonist just cracked the last ciphertext of the Zodiac killer ten years ago and put it on TV. His wife is very worried about his safety)
Wife: When will you wait until hand?
Cartoonist (found new clues, ready to go out): I don't have time to talk about this right now, I'm going to meet Bob Vaughn (the important person in the case).
Wife (angrily): When are you going to end this? When you catch him? when he was arrested?
Cartoonist: Seriously!
Wife: I'm serious!
Cartoonist (excited and determined): I need to know who he is, I need to stand there, I need to stand and look him in the eyes and recognize it's him!
Wife (puzzling): Is that more important than your family's safety?
Cartoonist: Of course not.
Wife: Why? Why are you doing this? Why?
Cartoonist: Because no one wants to do that.
Wife: That answer is not good enough.
Cartoonist: Are you done? can I go now?
(Two years later, the cartoonist already knew who the Zodiac Killer was, but there was no legal evidence to arrest him, and the killer was on the loose.)
The cartoonist walked into a grocery store unintentionally, and unintentionally saw that the salesperson here was the killer who had found Thirteen. The two looked at each other for a full 19 seconds. Then the cartoonist looked away, nodded slightly, as if the killer had been tried for his crimes, and as if it were a relief from the thrill and fear of exploring this fascinating mystery and dangerous case, and ended the conflict. Unknown things cannot restrain the enthusiasm of exploration.
PS: For this paranoid character, I can't help but think of another "Blue Velvet" filmed by the director. What is evil? What is evil? How far is evil from us? Does pure evil exist? Are there really boundaries between good and evil? Perhaps it can be concluded that all behaviors cannot be simply divided into good and evil, but depends on the motive behind the behavior, and all the motives are understandable.
