- Yes. Absolutely.

But just because I did

some things in my past,

Don't say that I've done this

here, because I did not!

- I did not.. I did not kill anyone!

- Okay okay, Bob, just..

Bob, just calm down.

Sorry I'm late.

Bob,

We found this at your house.

Can you tell me what it is?

I haven't seen this!

What.. what is this?

It's a flight chart. I'm sure

you've seen hundreds of them.

Right. And what're all these little

markings on it? These "x" s?

Those are places where I hunt.

But, Bob, why is this one and this one

- And these two?

- All right, just hold it now.

You're saying.. no way. Those

are just places where I hunted.

Oh, I believe they were, Bob.

- Places where you've hunted.

- Yep.

And then one night while you

were studying this chart,

You added on where you hunted a girl,

And then another and another, until it's

just something you can't leave alone.

You put these girls out

there, didn't you, Bob?

You had their blood all over

your hands and your clothes?

Sergeant.

We found the guns. Just a matter of

time before the lab confirms it.

- Well, now just goddamned minute..

- Sergeant!

That's.. that's him.

Pretty bad weather for a

flight the other day.

Quite a pilot.

We almost lost you a few times.

But we found it.

The tracks were still fresh.

What is that?

Well, Bob knows.

Don't you, Bob?

She had a child!

Almost the same age as your son, Bob.

What's the matter?

Why are you so quiet?

Don't you remember killing Sue Luna?

Did you take it off her before

or after you raped her?

This meeting's over. I

need to talk to my client.

No, I'm trying to help him.

You see, we're gonna be taking a close

look at where all these little marks are.

Now this map has 24 on it,

Leading us to conclude that there

might be 24 girls out there,

And if we find a body, we're

gonna charge him with murder!

Bob, I can't stop it..

you, your family, the media.

The ground's frozen now,

but come every summer

When the snow and the ice

melt, I'll keep going

Until I've checked every last mark.

I'm going to ask the district

attorney to petition the governor

With all the bodies we'll

find, he'll get it,

so if you don't want to

tell us the truth now,

- We can't help you then!

- You think can threaten me?

- You think you can threaten me?

- Bob, Bob, Bob!

You think you know who I am? You

don't have any idea who I am!

You little c*nt!

You think you can threaten

me with this little whore?

Bob, take it easy!

I should have killed you

when I had the chance!

Bob.

Oh, Bob.
