We're gonna play it for you now.
This message is for
Dr. Jack Gramm.
You got the wrong man.
Forster is innocent.
Please, don't hurt me anymore.
Don't hurt me anymore.
You gonna let me go, right?
You said you'd let me go.
I've read what you want me and...
Jack, it goes like that for about
an hour, before she dies.
Why do you think she was reading you
that message, Dr. Gramm?
Dr. Gramm?
Dr. Gramm?
In Dr. Gramm own words...
So they're no actual tangible pieces
per say.
happened to Kate.
A guess based on his intuition,
a personal bias, ego.
And he sold that fiction lock, stock
and barrel to the jury.
What is it?
The girl that was killed
last night...
- was Dale Morris.
- Dale?
Oh, my God.
Okay, let's see...
We have our investigators coordinated
with the FBI...
I wanna know everything Dale Morris did
on the last 24 hours.
who she talked to.
Can you please have Dr. Gramm's car
ready, please. Thank you.
Thank you, Shelley.
For what?
- I don't know. For everything.
- I hate when you do this, Jack.
Every time you o this,
I think you gonna end up dead.
Just don't ask me to marry you
again.
Why not?
We're perfect for each other.
Yeah, yeah. Except that I'm gay
and you're commitment phobe.
That's why we're perfect.
Thanks, baby.
Dr. Gramm is a world known expert
in forensic psychiatry.
What is forensic psychiatry?
I mean, is not the same profession
that destroyed MacMorton's life...
by conjuring up images
of child molestation?
None of the charges were ever proved.
And the accused, though innocent...
was public crucified.
Jack, look. Look at the kite.
Jack, come here.
Yeah?
Hello?
Hello?
You have 88 minutes to live.
What?
You know how long 88 minutes can be,
don't you?
- That's 11:
45 am.- Who is this?
- Tic-tac.
- Who the hell is this?
Tic-tac.
What were you saying?
- Jack Gramm Associates.
- Shelley?
I want you to set a trap and
and a trace on my cell.
What's going on?
I want you to contact
a wireless carrier...
and have them find out who made
that last phone call to me.
- Jack, I could be more helpful if...
- Just do it.
Just do it. I need it, all right?
And call me when you get it.
John Forster was an Eagle Scout, which
counts for his facility with ropes.
He also worked
in a veterinary office...
where he had experience using
the animal tranquilizer Halothane...
witch he's used to subdue
his victims.
Halothane. Sorry, I'm late again.
Thank you, Kim.
I see that the size of our class
is dwindling once again.
It could be because
you keep booting everyone.
My favorite student, Mike Stempt.
Okay. The legal distinction between
sanity and insanity rests upon what?
- Free will.
- The concept of the free will.
And what is
the most important thing...
one should remember
when entering a court-room?
That insanity it's a legal concept.
It's not a medical or psychiatric term.
But despite the fact that insanity
is a legal concept...
it doesn't mean
that someone is not sick.
Yes, Lauren.
Of all the serial killers
that I've interviewed and studied...
witch include our boy Bundy,
Dahmer, Gacy...
none of them was legally insane.
This is not saying
that they were normal.
I could argue that
they couldn't help themselves...
precisely because of
their mental disorder.
Well, if you wanna argue, Mike...
school of law is across campus.
Come on, Dr. Gramm.
It's ingenuous to pretend that
our presentations are not arguments.
We create a narrative of the crime
and the criminal.
Narrative is based on facts.
Based on logic.
We don't walk into a court-room
and advocate set scenes, do we?
We don't take sides.
We check our views at the door.
You mean you want us to pretend
we don't have an opinion?
We have opinions, Lauren,
but we just keep them to ourselves.
Share them with your dog,
if you have to.
Not with your parrot,
because it talks back.
It is that kind of logic that's gonna
get you in a law school across campus.
I've been there. I've done that.
Well, my condolences.
So, where is...
Dale Morris? She's absent.
I don't see her.
That's her first.
I didn't take her for a quitter.
Anyone who has her phone number,
please, contact me after class.
Okay.
Excuse me.
Shelley.
Tick-Tack, doc.
You have 83 minutes to live, Dr. Gramm.
Tick-Tack, doc.
So where was I?
Bundy versus Forster.
- What?
- Bundy versus Forster.
Thank you, Lauren.
You're welcome.
What we're gonna explore today is
the similarities and dissimilarities...
say, from Ted Bundy's motives,
let's compared them to John Forster's.
Dr. Gramm,
your phone is ringing.
- Jack, are you there?
- Shelley. What's going on?
The call was made
from a cell phone.
One of those you buy
and pay minutes for it.
Registered to whom?
- Look, I know you're in class, but...
- Yes, who is registered to it?
A Kate Gramm.
Jack, it's a common name.
It doesn't have to be your sister.
It's just a coincidence.
It's not a coincidence.
- It's not a coincidence.
- Jack, I'm loosing you.
Shelley?
Goddamn it!
Shelley?
Have you found out who my phone
is registered to by now?
Poor Kate. If it was Kate,
you'd like to call her?
I'm gonna find you, you here that,
you son-of-a-b*tch?
You're barking up the wrong tree
on this one.
I'm gonna find you.
She suffered
for such a long time.
You remember how long,
don't you?
You still feel guilty about her?
You feel guilty about
falsifying the evidence?
Tic-tac, doc.
You have 79 minutes to live.
Do you find this funny, Albert?
Who were you calling on
your phone?
Let me see your phone.
I was just...
Let me see that goddamn it phone.
I was just checking
the Mariners score.
- You were what?
- I was checking the Mariners score.
Okay, what is the score?
The score.
What's the damn score?
It's 3 x 1 Mariners.
B1.
- Oh, my God, I can't believe it.
- What does it mean? What's the problem?
Look.
What?
What's going on here?
It says that Dale Morris was murdered
last night.
- Is that true, Dr. Gramm?
- Yeah.
You knew it?
You knew it and you didn't tell us?
- You knew and asked for Dale's number?
- Is it the slayer?
- It could be.
- It could be?
Well, the police haven't released
any information yet.
- Are we all in danger?
- I can't believe you didn't tell us.
- Dr. Gramm?
- Lynn Johnson.
Someone just called
a bomb threat.
Everyone is to evacuate the building
immediately. Thank you.
Come on.
Grab your stuff.
I'll get your papers
of presentation, Tom.
I got the slides, Kim.
All students, faculty and staff
must evacuate the building.
I repeat.
Everyone must evacuate the building.
All students, faculty and staff
must evacuate the building.
I repeat.
Everyone must evacuate the building.
Please,
remain calm e do not run.
Proceed to the door
to the end of the campus.
