TWELFTH PRECINCT. DETECTIVE | CHRISTIAN SPEAKING.

I'M ONE OF THOSE WHO FINDS | THE SUPERFLUOUS ESSENTIAL.

BUT YOU, | I COULD DO WITHOUT.

I- IT'S HIM.

YOU THINK YOUR BADGE | IS POWER.

IT'S NOT. | KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.

YOUR BADGE | ISN'T EVEN PERMANENT.

MY BADGES, | I CAN NEVER TAKE OFF.

THEY SET ME APART FROM ALL | OTHERS UNTIL THE DAY I DIE.

MY BADGES ARE FOREVER, | BUT YOURS IS A CONVENIENCE.

YOUR BADGES | HAVE NO MEANING.

MY BADGE | REPRESENTS THE LAW.

I NEED A TRACE | ON GAGE'S OUTSIDE LINE.

SOME PEOPLE WANT EVERYTHING | GIVEN TO THEM WITH A BIG, RED BOW,

BUT NOT YOU.

YOU DON'T WANT A THING, | DO YOU?

HOW MUCH IS ENOUGH, | HMM?

IT'S BEEN SAID | THAT THE ROAD OF EXCESS...

LEADS TO THE PALACE | OF WISDOM,

FOR WE NEVER KNOW | HOW MUCH IS ENOUGH...

UNTIL WE KNOW | WHAT IS MORE THAN ENOUGH.

OH, STOP BEING A BABY.

YOU DON'T LIKE ME VERY MUCH, | DO YOU, JACKS?

I UNDERSTAND.

IN OUR SOCIETY, PHYSICAL | DIFFERENCE FRIGHTENS PEOPLE.

OH, YOU CAN BE AS...

DEVIANT AS HELL | ON THE INSIDES,

BUT DO ONE LITTLE PHYSICAL | THING LIKE- OH, I DON'T KNOW-

TATTOO YOUR FACE,

AND MAN, | DO PEOPLE FREAK OUT.

IT'S A CURSE OF OUR SOCIETY | THAT WE MUST...

FIT IN TO A RIGID PATTERN | TO BELONG.

THERE'S NO ROOM | FOR IMAGINATION...

AND CREATIVITY.

ARE YOU CRYING?

JACKSY.

JACKSON!

THERE'S NO CRYING. | YOU'RE NOT A CHILD.

YOUR CHILDHOOD WAS OVER THE MOMENT | YOU KNEW YOU WERE GOING TO DIE.

SUNNY.

IT'S TIME TO EXPAND...

YOUR SPIRITUAL HORIZONS.

TRUST ME.

YOU NEED AN | OUT-OF-BODY EXPERIENCE.

WHAT'S THAT?

YOU'RE ALREADY | SPIRITUALLY AWARE?

SUNNY, MY DEAR, OLD DAD | ALWAYS TOLD ME,

NEVER CONFUSE | DESPERATION...

WITH A SPIRITUAL | AWAKENING.

PREPARE FOR | THE KAVANDI BEARING.

EMBRACE | THE SPEARS OF SHIVA.

SUFFER, MY DAUGHTER, | TO WEAR THE ITIBURI.

WILL THE DAUGHTER | ACCEPT THE ITIBURI?

I'LL TAKE THAT AS A YES. | DON'T MOVE.

THIS PAIN IS AN IMPORTANT | PART OF OUR BONDING,

A PHYSICAL HORROR | THAT BINDS US...

EVEN TIGHTER.

THE VERY INTENSITY | OF THIS EXPERIENCE...

HELPS TO WIDEN | THE GULF BETWEEN US...

AND THOSE WHO HAVE NOT | SHARED IT WITH US.

YOU MUST TRANSCEND WHAT | THE BODY FEELS AS PAIN.

TURN IT INTO PLEASURE,

AND THEN INTO | A SPIRITUAL EVENT.

YOU DO NOT | FEEL THE PAIN.

THE BODY FEELS THE PAIN.

WELL, MAYBE YOU | DO FEEL THE PAIN.

THANK YOU.

- YEAH. GAGE. | - HEY. THIS A BAD TIME?

WE'RE HEADED OVER TO THE HOSPITAL | TO SEE HOW MADELINE ROTH IS DOING.

HOW'S THINGS | AT YOUR MOM'S?

YEAH, ME TOO.

SO GEN'S BACK HOME?

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? | SHE'S AT SCHOOL.

I CALLED THE SCHOOL. | THEY SAID SHE LEFT YESTERDAY.

WHAT?

THE SCHOOL SAID | THAT YOU CALLED.

- UH, UH- | - MIKE?

UH- I'M ON MY WAY | TO THE HOUSE.

OH, GOD, PLEASE DON'T | LET THIS BE HAPPENING.

GENEVIEVE!

TONI?

OH, NO. | OH, MAN.

WHAT, NO HELLO?

WHERE'S MY DAUGHTER, | HENDRICKS?

GENEVIEVE'S WITH ME.

I'M TAKING ESPECIALLY | GOOD CARE OF HER.

DETECTIVE WHAT'S-HIS-NAME.

FALLING APART | AT THE SEAMS, I SEE.

SHEDIDN'T DO A THING.

DIDN'T YOU TELL HER?

YOU DIDN'T, | DID YOU?

- HOW HUMAN. | - WHAT IS HE TALKING ABOUT? WHAT DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?

MIKE, WE'RE ON IT. | KEEP HIM ON-LINE.

YOU KNOW, PAIN IS A | UNIQUELY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE.

LONG IS THE ORNAMENT, | SHORT IS THE PAIN.

- OH, GOD. OH, NO, NO. | - IT'S TOO BAD YOU'RE NOT HERE.

WHEN THE PIERCINGS ARE FRESH, | THE SEXUAL EXCITATION...

IS TO DIE FOR.

YOU SADISTIC SACK OF SH*T! | I'LL KILL YOU!

I SWEAR TO GOD, I'LL | KILL YOU! STOP, STOP.

SADISTIC? REALLY?

THIS ANIMAL HAS GENNY. DO YOU | REALLY WANT TO SET HIM OFF?

I FIND SADISTS RATHER DULL. I'M INTERESTED | IN HEIGHTENING PEOPLE'S AWARENESS,

ALTERING STATES | THROUGH PRIMITIVE RITUALS.

HEY, WHERE'D EVERYBODY GO?

IT'S OKAY, HONEY. DADDY'S GONNA | FIND YOU. YOU JUST HANG ON.

OOH! "DADDY'S GONNA FIND YOU. | HANG ON." SCARY! WHEN?

PLEASE, CARLETON, | I'M BEGGING YOU.

TAKE ME. | LET MY DAUGHTER GO.

TEMPTING, | BUT YOU SEE,

GEN AND I HAVE ONLY...

BRUSHED THE SURFACE | OF OUR RELATIONSHIP.

SO MUCH FLESH,

SO LITTLE TIME.
