"You know how some babysitters take you to the movies, or roller-blading in the park." "Mine brought me along on a date with a serial killer." "Patrick Bateman." "Not my idea of a romantic evening." "God, I mean, look at her." "All drugged up and tied to a chair." "I knew we should have gone to the movies." "At first, I was scared." "I wanted to get out of there as fast as I could." "But then... something came over me." "As soon as I was free, I got really pissed." "He was about to make a real mess of my babysitter." "So, I did what I believe many of you would do in similar circumstances." "I took matters into my own hands." "And it changed my life forever." "Is everything all right in there?" " I thought I heard a crash." " Yes, everything's fine." "Thanks." "They found Bateman and his final victim a few days later." "The FBI quickly uncovered a psychopath, and a few extra unsolved murders on him, and he became an instant celebrity, an overnight sensation." "I think they wrote a book about him." "Only in America." "As for me?" "I was never tied to the scene." "And rather than self-destruct, or spend the rest of my life on some shrink's couch," "I told no one of what had happened." "I silently vowed to devote my life to stopping other psycho killers." "I couldn't wait to grow up." "The next six years of my life were a blur." "My parents wrote me off emotionally." "My mom became a raging alcoholic, and my dad was busy fucking the secretary." "Pretty cliché, huh?" "So, here I am today, attending the most renowned behavioral studies program in the nation." "Here they focus on profiling, the art, craft and science of tracking serial killers." "Of course, the subject matter itself attracts some weirdos." "Hey, Rachael." "But then again, maybe it's just me..." "The problem is, I don't have time for games." "I've got to focus on my work." " Come on, you can do better than that." " That's what your mama said." "And what can I say?" "Studying murder often brings out the best in people." "Thought you quit!" "Getting into West Washington wasn't easy." "I busted my ass in high school and maintained a perfect 4.0 grade point average." "All this, so I could study with the best mind in the field," "Pr." "Robert Starkman." "Quite possibly the most revered hunter of serial killers the FBI ever produced." "After solving every high profile crime ever thrown at him, he suddenly made a startling life change and became a teacher." "Some say it was his last case, the mysterious death of serial killer Patrick Bateman." "Good morning." "Funny how life works, isn't it?" "Good morning." "Starkman never discusses the Bateman case..." "Never." "Congratulations on getting through the first half of the semester..." " alive." " ( students laugh )" "I have here... the official application form for the teacher's assistant position for next year." "This is my golden ticket to Quantico, the FBI's elite training program."

"Announcing my new assistant for next year by the end of the week, just before we head off for Spring Break." "And, talking about Spring Break, don't forget the party at the Dean's mansion." "We'll have an opportunity to say goodbye to Miss McGuire who's leaving us for bigger and better things." "Well, after weeks of grueling, if not gruesome work, let's have some fun, shall we?" "Today we'll be looking at the unique aliases the FBI, the press and the general public have nicknamed serial killers, and why." "His present TA is Elizabeth McGuire." "She's already been accepted to Quantico..." "Early admissions." "I'm the front runner to replace her." "Nobody comes close to my rock solid GPA." "Dr. H.H. Holmes was once vilified, in a biography, as the "Arch Fiend."" "I'd like to say that none of them have a chance, but grades aren't everything." "And I do have some competition." "Contender number one:" "Brian Leads." "A GPA as low as his wouldn't normally pose a threat." "But his family's fortune, easily numbering in hundreds of millions, can open a lot of doors." "How do you think he got into the school?" "Can you spell "donation"?" "He can't." "Albert Fish, AKA "The Moon Maniac"..." "AKA "The Werewolf of Wisteria."" "Contender two:" "Cassandra Blaire." "Rumor has it she and Starkman have been going at it since the beginning of the semester." "But my guess:" "No way." "I mean, he's old enough to be her grandfather." "Nannie Doss..." ""The Black Widow" who murdered four of her husbands." "Contender three:" "Keith Lawson." "He poses the biggest threat of the three." "He and I have been sparring all year in this class." "But, I've yet to lose a single round." "The fact is, none of them have a chance." "Oh, Bobby."

"Come Friday, I will be Starkman's new teaching assistant." "The position is mine." "I deserve it and I'm going to get it." "Yes, there maybe a few more hoops I have to jump through, but I can handle them." "Besides, failure is not an option." "Why don't we just start over here, because I highly suggest you reconsider your position on this." "I'm sorry, Mr. Leads." "I can't make any exceptions." "Your GPA is simply not high enough." "Are you saying no to me?" "Do you know who my father is?" "Mr. Leads..." "I am well aware of your family's legacy." "Heed my advice." "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush." "That's your fucking advice?" "I have some advice for you." "Get ready to take a long vacation." "Go with God, dear heart." "Next!" "Can you believe this shit?" "Wait till she sees my GPA after my cousin hacks into their mainframe." "Oh!" "Do they give these things up for bitch of the month?" "That hag could be the reigning champion." "She's lucky I don't bash her brains in." "Next!" "Hi." "I was told to drop off my teaching assistant application here after I'm done with it." "Well, looks like everything's in order here." "Thank you." "Wait a second." " What's this?" " What?" "It says here that you're a freshman." "Yeah, so what?" "We don't usually allow freshmen or sophomores to become TAs." "You have to be a Junior or above." "This isn't your usual situation." "Pr." "Starkman already told me I could apply." "Shouldn't this decision be left up to the professor, not the school?" "'Fraid not." "I'll run this up the flagpole and see who salutes." "I'll have to speak with your teacher." "Look, I have a schedule to keep." "It's all worked out." "We do this for your own good, dear." "Freshmen can be extremely overwhelmed, being at college, and away from home for the first time in their lives." "Here, take this."

"It just wouldn't be right." "I'm sure Pr." "Starkman will put in a good word for you, but I don't see how I can make any exceptions at this point without setting a dangerous precedent in school policy." "I'll be informing the Dean of the situation." "I'm sorry, Miss Newman." "You'll just have to wait." "Have a nice day." " (door slams)" " Hmm." "Ricky Martin?" "Ricky?" "Ricky?" "Come to mama." "Ricky?" "Ricky Martin?" "Ricky?" "Ricky?" "Oh!" "Ricky, you got some explaining to do." "Ricky?" "(meowing)" "(meowing)" " Oh, thank God." " (meowing)" "What happened to you?" "(screaming)" "♪ Bad things ♪" "♪ Dead things ♪" "♪ Sad things have to happen ♪" "♪ Bad things ♪" "♪ Dead things ♪" "♪ Sad things have to happen. ♪" "(knocking)" "Hey, Miss Newman." "Wow, Brian." "Are you stalking me now?" "No, Rachael." "If I was stalking you, you'd know it." "I mean-- you wouldn't know it." "You know?" "Listen, I just thought we should get together and... discuss the state of the union and just, life in general." "Get to the point, Brian." "My inside source says he has narrowed it down." "Guess who's still in the running?" "Keith, Cassandra and me." "Unless you find some way to raise your GPA in the next couple of days." "That problem's already solved." "So, do you want to catch a bite to eat tomorrow night, maybe some dinner and discuss it?" "And what's to discuss?" "It's not like it was ever between anyone else." "We were always the front runners." "Well, we could get together and maybe form an alliance, eliminate our competition." "Well, that sounds intriguing but..." " I have a paper to write." " A paper?" "Listen, Rachael..." "We should get to know each other better." "Is it just me, or is there unspoken sexual tension between us?" "We should bring it to the surface and stop lying to each other." "Are you on crack?" "I don't know." "It was white, it was in a pipe" " So, what do you say?" " I told you." "I have a paper to write." "No, no, no..." "I'm not taking no for an answer twice in one day." "You have to eat, right?" "I have to eat." "We both have to eat." "Let's just eat together." "It's no big deal." "Listen, I was just fucking around with the sexual tension stuff." "I just throw stuff out there." "I'm crazy, I'm like a volcano, just waiting to erupt" "Okay!" "Okay, fine." "Just pick me up at 8:00." " Eight?" "Like 8:00pm?" " Yeah." " Between 7:00 and 9:00?" " Yeah!" "Okay." "'Cause it's great for me" " I'll see you at 8:00." " Whatever." "Maybe I'll be there five minutes later." "So... what are you doing for Spring Break?" "I'm just gonna hang around and get some work done." "What do you mean, "Hang around"?" "You mean, like stay on campus?" "Yeah." "You're not going home?" "Why?" "Because I have work to do." "Besides, my family's coming to visit." "It's my mom's birthday... and they want to see how the other half lives." " Okay, that sounds terrible." " I know." "What are you doing?" "Bobby's taking me up to his cabin in the Northern Cascade" "Cassandra, please don't call him Bobby in front of me." "I'm sorry." "Pr." "Starkman is taking me up to his cabin." "When do you guys leave?" "He's got to go upstate first, to meet Diane and Louisa." "You mean, his wife and his baby daughter?" "Whatever!" "Yes, them." "He's meeting them at his in-laws' for the long weekend." "God, you know, I can't stand how much of his time they take up." "Cass, they're his family!" "Whatever." "Look, I'm late for a study session." "I should just go." "God, I can't believe you're actually going out with Brian." "I mean, how did that happen?" "Okay... so, the other day, our eyes met across a crowded room, and there was this-- this spark, the sign I've been waiting for my whole life." "It was then that I knew that Brian was my soul mate." " Oh my God." " I know." " Really?" " No, not really." "It's kinda great to be here tonight with you." " Mmm-hmm." " Hi." "Hi." "Can I get you something to drink?" "Yes, please." "I'll have a Kettle One martini, straight up, very dry." "Very, very dry." "And the lady will have..." " I'll have a glass of house red." " House red." "Good." "I'll be right back." " So, you look great." " Thanks." "our hair is different." "It looks good." " Thanks." " No problem." "So, you know, it's great that we finally have some "us" time." " Just you and I hanging out." " I agree." "Yeah." "Listen, Rach, before we sort of, embark on our evening," "I have a confession to make." "God, Brian, can you wait until we get our drinks before you start making your confessions?" " Oh yeah, sure." " Thanks." "Oh, look." "Our drinks." "Thank you." " There you go." " Thank you." "It's my first day." "So, ready to order?" "Can you just, sort of, give us a minute here?" "Sure." "Just take your time." "Thank you." "Okay." "So, what would you like to confess?" "Well, this is difficult for me, because I really want us to remain friends after-- regardless of who Starkman picks for the TA position." "Wow, I'm touched." "Brian, I really am." "But you should know that I'm very determined to get the position." "You know, after the last few months," "I've been doing a little research on Cassandra Blair." "What kind of research?" "Well, let's just say that if she gets the position, the Dean's office is going to receive an anonymous letter regarding her and Starkman's "relationship", accompanied by some very revealing photographs." " How Christian of you." " Thanks." "OK, so I guess that narrows it down to three." "Yeah." "You know who my father is, right?" "Yes, we're all in awe of your family's money." "You know, you and Keith are very smart." "So I've had to go to great lengths to ensure that my bright future in the FBI goes without a hitch." "What are you smiling at?" "This." "That is the press release for the new Carson-Leads Behavioral Sciences Building." "It's just one of my dad's new pet projects." "So..." "I have an offer you can't refuse." "Drop out of the race for the TA position, and I'll ensure that you have seven digits of my family's eternal gratitude." "Brian?" "Are you bribing me now?" "Bribe, Rachael?" "Did I say bribe?" "Just think of it as a business opportunity." "Trust me, the alternative wouldn't be too pleasant." ""I'll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours."" " What?" " It's a quote." "Bob Dylan, maybe you've heard of him?" " Oh, yeah." " You know, Brian, you should really get out more." "Maybe I will." "The night's young." "That it is." "Cheers." "Don't!" " (mimicking trumpet)" " Shh!" "We're home, we're home." "Wow!" "This is like... a room." "♪ Do you want ♪ ♪ to be my girl?" "♪" "♪ Do you want ♪ ♪ to be my friend?" "♪" "♪ Do you want ♪ ♪ to start it all?" "♪" "We can stop if you want." " No, no..." "I just don't" " What, you don't have any?" "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything when the time comes." "Oh, the old "pull out and pray" trick." "Great, a Renaissance man." "Wait a second!" "The convenience store, down the street" "I'll just go down there, it's right around the corner." "It's really convenient and I'll get some, I'll get tons." "Wait a minute, what am I saying?" "My roommate's got tons of them, drawers full of them." "I mean, It's like a prophylactic factory." "Are we done here?" "No." "No, we're not done." "Just wait here." "I'm gonna walk down the hall, and get some from a friend." " Oh, great." " Just make yourself comfortable." "Sure, great." "I'll be here." "Jeez." "A piss-sheet." "Jesus." "What the fuck." "(choking)" "Ribbed, for her pleasure." "Yep, I just killed Brian." "But you've got to look at the positive side..." "I'm killing for a better tomorrow." "Once I get into the FBI," "I'll be in a position to stop dozens, maybe even hundreds of serial killers every year." "Okay, think about it..." "I'm killing the few to save the many." "Sort of like Robin Hood, you know?" "God, I think I need some professional help." "So, Rachael, have you ever been to a psychiatrist before?" "No." " No, how does it work?" " I works like this." "You want answers, so we get together, we have weekly converations, and together we ask the questions that will lead you to your answers." "All right?" "God, I could tell you anything, and you'd still never know the real me." "Sure you could, and that's your choice." "But why would you lie to me?" "Because I don't expose my Achilles' heel to anyone." " Why do you say that?" " Look, all I'm saying is, I need to be on watch." "If I'm not looking out for number one, then who is?" "It's a dog-eat-dog-world out there, and my future depends on not getting eaten by the other dogs." "I have schedules, appointments, goals, and dreams that only I'll be able to fulfill." "No one is going to do that for me." "Who do you think is keeping you from achieving these goals?" " Other people." " What people?" "Anyone who gets in my way." "If you could be anyone in the world, except yourself, who would that be?" "Elizabeth McGuire." "Elizabeth McGuire?" "Who's she?" "She's Pr." "Starkman's present TA." "And the next in line to go to Quantico." " And Quantico is?" " My goal." " My destiny." " I see." "Have you ever wanted something so bad that you'd do anything to get it?" "Sure." "Go on." "And that's why I went to West Washington." "And I've always known that, really, there were only three other people who could steal the TA position away from me." "What happens if you don't get the position?" "Oh, I can't even consider that." "No, no failure is not an option." "I will get the position." " How can you be so sure?" " Because I am." " Why don't we stop there?" " Okay." "My secretary will get your billing info on the way out." "Okay." "So, same time next week?" " You bet." " Okay." "(dialing)" " (phone rings)" " Starkman." "Hey, Bobby." "It's Eric." "Hey, Eric." "What's up?" "Hey, look Bobby, I just had a first time session with one of your students." "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa..." "Aren't we violating some sort of privacy code here?" "Yes and no." "I'll tell you what..." "I won't tell you the name, if you promise not to say it out loud once you've figured it out." " Is that a deal?" " Okay." "Fire away." "All right." "I think I've identified this person as a textbook sociopath." "That seems to be a prerequisite for getting into college in the first place." "Tell me about it." "Still, this girl has no concept of reality or the difference between right or wrong." "A girl." "Mmm, the plot thickens." "She's obsessed with becoming your assistant next semester." "Well, if that's her obsession, it's no big deal." "These kids seem to think I'm their ticket to the FBI." "Just keep your eyes open." "This girl-- she scared me." "Jesus, Eric, if she's that dangerous, maybe you'd better tell me her name before she turns up in class with an AK47." "You know I can't do that." "I've already broken the law by placing this call." "Just be aware that there's a student like this in your class." "What exactly do you mean, "be aware"?" "25 years in the FBI..." "turn your radar on." "Just make sure she doesn't get out of hand." " She's already identified three of her peers" " Dr. Daniels?" " Okay, okay, Mother." " Mom?" "I've got to go, I've got an appointment downtown." "I love you." "I do." "I love you too." "Okay, I'll see you this weekend." "Bye." "Rachael?" "I am so sorry to disturb you." "I didn't realize you were on the phone" " and your secretary was away from her desk." " It's okay." "I just left my keys here." "You know, I am such a textbook nut case sometimes." "I'd probably lose my head if it wasn't screwed on." "Oh, there they are." "It's so nice that you stay in touch with your mom." " How old is she?" " 72." "Wow." "72, that's a great age." "So many new and exciting things, the golden years." "Grandchildren?" "No." "I'm" "My wife and I never had children." "Was she not able to?" "Actually, Rachael, we're divorced." "You know, I have another patient coming in soon." "And I have to prepare for them." "So I'm going to have to ask you to leave." "Now, which is it, Eric?" "An appointment downtown or a patient in your office?" "I mean, it's not nice to lie to your dear old mom." "See you next week." "♪ She never changes her mind. ♪" "After my session with Eric, I really needed some therapy." "That guy just about drove me nuts." "So, I went back to something my dad always said," ""nothing like a change of scenery to clear your head, to ease the burden of a busy schedule."" "Besides, tonight's the annual Behavioral Sciences party at the Dean's mansion." "I have to look good." "I wanna be dressed to kill."

" Oh, bite me, Barbie." "You see, the Anthony Perkins character in Psycho was modeled on Ed Gein." "My heart rate nearly triples when I get to the party and see that the vultures have already descended upon Starkman." "He broke the mold because he only killed two people in his entire career." "I must have lost track of time running on." "I had planned to get here early to get as much face-time with Starkman as possible." "And now I'm late." "This is a disaster." "Bitch!" "...e inspiration for Leatherface in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" " Hello, Miss Brown." " I'll be right back." "It's good to see you." " Hey, Rach, how is it going?" " Hey!" "So, how was your date with Brian?" "Oh, fine." "Short, I guess." "I don't know." "Short?" "How short was he?" "I mean, "it."" "We didn't get that far." "He went home after dinner." "What do you mean?" "Why did you come by my room last night to borrow a rubber," " if he went home right after dinner?" " Why are you giving me the third degree?" "Look, I'm just confused, is all." "Did you guys get it on or not?" "Look, I don't think it's any of your business." " Can we drop this, please?" " Whatever." "You know, sometimes I just don't get what's going on in your head." "It's like you're not even here." "What did you do last night?" " Bobby came over for" " Cassandra!" "I'm sorry." "Pr." "Starkman came over for a study session." "And let me assure you, it was definitely not short." "Oh, I'm gonna vomit." "What are you smiling at, freak?" "Come here." "Bob-- I mean the professor, told me I'm a shoe-in for the TA position next year." "I mean, I wasn't supposed to tell anyone, but since you and I are so close I figured I could share..." "I was gonna burst." "Just think, now I get to spend all this time with my sweetie." "And his wife's just gonna think we're working." "Oh hey, wait a minute, maybe I'll even get to go to Quantico." "How great would that be?" "Just make sure you don't tell anyone, okay?" " Not even Brian." " You know what, Cass, don't worry." "Your secret is safe with me." "This party's such a dud." "Why don't we just blow it off and you can give me all the details." "Perfect." "Just let me talk to Starkman, and then we can go to Jittery Joes, grab a coffee." "No!" "It's way too crowded." "You don't want anyone to know about you and Bobby." "Why don't we grab a bottle of wine and go to your room." "That sounds great!" "Just make sure you don't tell anyone, okay?" " Don't let me down." " Don't worry," "I would never let you down." "It's like I said, Cassie, student-teacher relationships just never work out." "(phone rings)" "It's Cassandra, I can't get to the phone right now, so leave a quickie and I'll get back to ya, bye." "Hello Cassandra." "Pr." "Starkman here." "Listen, it's 11:25 and you missed your study session." "Call me back to reschedule." "Doctor Daniels?" "I'm sorry to drop in without an appointment, but there is something on my mind." "Sure." "Sure, Rachael." " How are things with you?" " Oh, they couldn't be better." "Really?" "Any word on that TA job yet?" "He's not going to announce it until the day before Spring Break." "When does that start for you guys?" " End of the week." " Really?" " Two days?" " Yeah." " And how do you feel about that?" " Pretty confident." " So, you think you'll get the job?" " Oh, I don't think, Eric." "I know." "Okay, Rachael." "Worst case scenario:" "you don't get the job." "What then?" "What are you talking about, Dr. Daniels?" "It's mine." "I know you want me to come up with some informed idea of what's wrong with me, but I'll be honest." "I came here today... to tell you I'm not coming back next week." "Don't worry, I have every intention to pay for your time." "However, I feel the problem we have connecting lies mostly with you." "Look, this is a small town." "My guess is you know almost everyone here." "You were born here, right?" "It must be so disappointing to see all these college kids come in and out of your town every year, moving on to bigger and better opportunities, while you stay here, year after year, getting older and older." "And all while taking care of your dear old mom." "And on top of this, you're divorced?" "God!" "The female population in this town, aside from the sexy little college girls running around, must be pretty weak." "This alone would cripple any man." "Your level of frustration must be through the roof." "A dead-end job with no love life, all while taking care of your sick mom." "Just the other day," "I noticed you were judging me." "Is that fair?" "I mean really, is that?" "I don't think so." "Your life is very similar to Ed Gein's." "Ed Gein?" "Yes, Ed Gein." "Very famous serial killer." "A bachelor, raised by his domineering mother, until she died when he was roughly your age." "God, he went nuts!" "He couldn't handle the loss." "I wonder what would happen to you without your mother?" "Okay Rachael, that's enough." "You don't know me, and I don't know you." "We're in the process of getting to know each other." "That's what these sessions are, a process." "So don't go jumping to conclusions." "No." "I'm not jumping to any conclusions here." "If you just open up your eyes, you'd see I'm already there." "Have a good day, Doctor." "Let's talk about Ted Bundy for a minute, shall we?" "What kind of a killer was he?" "How was he perceived?" "Mr. Lawson wishes to participate." "Please, let's hear it." "He was perceived as a very organized killer." " Very calculated." " Hmphf!" "You don't agree, Miss Newman?" "Yes and no." "Come on, this guy planned each and every detail in advance." "He chose his victims with extreme accuracy, he stalked them meticulously, and waited for the absolute precise moment to attack." "All while maintaining an air of patience not even the FBI's greatest could penetrate." " No offense, sir." " None taken." " Oh, but I still don't agree." " On top of that, he picked all his dumping sites ahead of time with the utmost caution." "He was unquestionably an organized killer." " Premeditated, with a capital "P."" " Capital "P"?" " It's a letter in the alphabet." " (students giggle)" "Between "O" and "Q."" "You have something to say, Miss Newman?" "He started out organized, but spiraled downward late in his so-called career." "He began to keep bodies for days, meticulously washing their hair and even applying make-up before disposing of them." "And he littered the dumping sites with evidence, using the utmost caution." "However, his last victim, and his youngest girl ever, fell out of his typical victim selection." "She was chosen out of sheer availability." "The sheer need to kill." "He was both, an organized killer and off-the-charts lunatic." " With a capital "L." - (classroom laughs)" "You're right." "He was both." "Very impressive, Miss Newman." "Now, Pr." "Starkman, how would you classify a killer whose downward spiral was actually calculated into their grand scheme?" "That's a very interesting hypothesis, Miss Newman." "Unfortunately, in this class, we stick to the facts." "And there's no known case-study of that nature." "Keith's little display of brainpower in class today was totally unacceptable." "I mean, it's a day before Starkman announces his new TA." "This could be catastrophic." "I wasn't about to watch years of hard work go down the drain." "It was time to pick Keith's brain." "You know that warm feeling you get when you realize that there are people out there just like you?" "It almost makes you feel normal." "I mean, all this time, I thought he was taking notes." "But no." "Look at his work, his sketches." "They're absolutely brilliant." "This may be a waste of a rare mind." "But, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do." "Hi, Pr." "Starkman." " Hey!" " Miss Brown." " How are you?" " Good." "So, the big day's tomorrow, right?" " What do you mean?" " For the TA position." " You're announcing it tomorrow?" " Yes, of course." " At noon, in my classroom." " I can't wait." "I think my chances are much better this year than they were last." "I would think so." "It's a very tight race this year." "Mmm-hmm." "So, were you looking for Cassandra?" "Because, I mean, she wasn't in class." "So she probably left for Spring Break quite early." " Well, actually, the" " It's Cassandra, isn't it?" "She got the position." "Good for her, but" "I can't say that I'm not disappointed, but "what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger." Right?" "I'll see ya." "(gasp)" "(phone rings)" "(rings again)" "Hi, it's Cassandra." "I can't get to the phone right now, so leave a quickie and I'll get back to ya, bye." "(beep)" "(phone rings)" " Hello?" " Eric, for God's sakes!" "She's dead!" " Who is?" " She is!" "The "she" whose name we agreed not to say aloud." "My patient?" "Dead?" "How?" "She hung herself." "You didn't say she was suicidal." "She had suicidal tendencies, but I was more concerned for the sociopathic and homicidal patterns that were emerging." "Spare me your psychobabble bullshit." "This girl... she may have been a little forward, but she wasn't crazy!" "I'm sorry you disagree, Bobby, but you didn't see what I saw." " This girl was not a pretty picture." " Listen, Eric," "I spent a lot of time with this girl, and I gotta tell ya, I don't agree with you on this one." "There are tons of kids in your classes." "How could you possibly know her as well as you think you did?" "We're bound by the guidelines of doctor-patient privilege, right?" "You didn't, Bob?" "You weren't sleeping with her?" "Hell, no wonder she was obsessing over you." " Bobby, how could you do this to Diane?" " None of your fucking business." "Fine." "Why did you call me in the first place?" "'Cause you're my fucking shrink!" "I'm sorry, Eric." "I just needed someone to talk to." "I loved her." "Eric, can you get me some Valium?" "Yeah." "I'll call it in to the pharmacy." " Can I give you some advice?" " (phone beeps)" " (dial tone)" " Hello?" "So, here we are." "The big day." "In moments, I'll be crowned Starkman's new TA, and be one step closer to the FBI." "Oh, it's too bad Brian, Cassie and Keith couldn't be here to watch me." "But wherever they are," "I'm sure they'll realize they did not give up their lives in vain." "I will make them proud." "Guys, can I have your attention, please?" "Pr." "Starkman told me to tell you that unfortunately he's decided that his sabbatical, which was scheduled for next year, is now effective immediately." "In other words, there'll be no TA position for next semester." "Sorry." "Have a great Spring Break."

"Starkman?" "Pr." "Starkman?" "Rachael." "Why-- why haven't you gone home?" "I'll just hang around here during the break." "Why?" "Don't you have family that's waiting at home for you?" "No." "No, actually, they're gonnal come visit me here." "Are you okay, Professor?" "I heard about the change in plans." "Is that why you're here?" "Is that all you people ever think about?" "The goddamn teaching assistant job?" "Quantico?" "Don't you kids get it?" "It's not even that important." "Well, it's important to me." "I have a schedule, a plan, a dream." "I need it!" "What makes you think you're gonna get it?" "Other students have applied too, you know?" " Some more qualified than you." " I beg your pardon?" "I believe I am the most qualified for this position." "Name someone who's more dedicated or intelligent, that's had more experience than me." "You don't even know what you're talking about." "Go on home." " What are you doing?" " Shh." "Just relax, Bobby." "Where did you get that?" "And the dress?" " What's going on here?" " Bobby, what's wrong?" "Don't fuck with me." "That necklace..." "And Cassandra's dress." "It was a present." "Bobby, don't you remember?" "You gave it to me." "Stop it... this instant!" "I said, go home." "I mean it." "Look, I have a confession to make." "I've had feelings for you for a long time now, Bobby... longer than you can imagine." "I've always wanted something to happen between us." "Something beautiful." "I love you, Bobby." " What?" "!" " Please, don't be upset, Bobby." "Stop calling me Bobby!" "Okay." "I'm a little confused." "You're confused?" "How do you think I feel?" "Rachael" " Ms. Newman..." " this is unacceptable." " Oh, it is?" "But it was okay for you and Cassandra?" "How did" "I don't know what you're talking about." "Leave." "I've always loved you." "Ever since I first saw you." "Before Diane ever loved you." "Before Cassandra ever loved you." "Before Clara even ever loved you." "It was always me." "Don't you get it?" "How did you know about Clara?" "That was six years ago." "I was there, Bobby." " Clara was babysitting me that night." " Clara." "He's here!" "Do something." "I was in Bateman's apartment." "Clara used to baby-sit me all the time." "She'd tell me about your relationship with her." "She'd show me pictures of you." "You were my first crush." "You were in Patrick Bateman's apartment... the night he killed Clara?" "Yeah." "I know you quit the FBI because of what happened to her." "I think you blame yourself for her death." "Bobby, all work, no play." " You want to play?" " Uh-huh." "Okay." "But she was the one who looked through your stuff and found the file on Bateman." "She's the one who tracked him down." "And she went to his apartment that night and dragged me along." "Rich and good-looking." "Remind me why we're together again?" "You shouldn't blame yourself." "She was going over there to cheat on you." "Did you know that?" " Did you know she was a slut?" " Shut up!" "It's the truth, OK?" "She got what she deserved." "And so did Cassandra." "She thought you didn't love her enough." "It's my turn now." "I've waited for this for over six years." "I won't let anyone get in my way, not even Diane and your baby girl." "Don't you threaten my family." "Oh, so now you care about your family?" "You just can't hold a relationship together, can you?" " Please." " You think you're the catch of a lifetime." "Old man, you're just the opportunity of a lifetime." " Stop." " After you can't break anymore hearts, you'll still break one more..."

"I put her in at 3:00, That really intense girl, Rachael Newman." "She wanted to come in today." "What?" "Rachael Newman?" "Are you sure?" "Yeah." "Eric, are you okay?" "I can reschedule her if you want." "I'm-- no, I'm" " I'm fine." "It's just-- it's been a long day." " Okay, let me know if you need anything." " Sure." "Bye." "Bye, Mary." " (ringing)" " Come on." "You've reached Pr." "Starkman in the Behavioral Sciences Department." "Please, leave a message." "Yeah, Bobby, it's Eric again." "Call me when you get this, alight?" "I'm really confused about something." "If you don't reach me by 3:00," "I'll drop by your office between 4:00 and 4:30." "Okay, bye." "(knocking on door)" " Hi, honey!" " Mom!" " Dad?" " We made it!" "Hello, princess." "Aren't you gonna invite us in?" "Jeez, I'm sorry." "Yes, please, come in." "Wow!" "Hi, happy birthday!" "Thank you, sweetie." "Oh, we've been planning this for months." "Sweet Jesus!" "It smells like somebody died in here." "The toilet's clogged up and maintenance isn't up and running," " so there's nothing I can do." " That's wretched." "Oh, sweetheart, you are such a clothes-horse." " What am I gonna do with you?" " Don't open the closet, Mom." "Your present's in there." " Oh, I'm sorry, sweetie." "Look at me, always almost spoiling the surprise." "Well, when are we gonna eat?" "I'm hungry." "Oh, good." "I made reservations for 5:30." "I'm going out of town with a friend of mine later tonight, so." "Well, is this restaurant reasonably priced?" "Yes." "Is there an early bird special?" " I don't think so." " Oh, that's too bad." " What's it called?" " Chez Gerard's." "Is that Italian?" "You know, your father cannot digest Italian food." " It's too spicy." " Mother, it's French." "French!" " Oh, how sophisticated!" " Yeah, okay." "I've got to finish packing and finish writing some term papers." "So why don't you guys go back to the motel... and we'll meet back at the restaurant at, say, 5:30?" "Sounds good to me." "I've got to use the head." "You really gotta get maintenance up here." "Daddy, I called." "Now, how will we ever find this place?" "We'll be back at 5:15 to pick you up." " Okay." " Bye, princess." "I love you, guys." " (ringing)" " You've reached Pr." "Starkman in the Behavioral Sciences Department." " Please, leave a message." " (beep)" "Hey, Bobby, it's Eric." "I know you're going through some tough times, but she-- the she who hung herself-- she made an appointment to see me today." "I don't know if this is some kind of joke, but something's not right." "Call me when you get this, all right?" "Roses are red, violets are blue, the Daniels will soon be calling back you." "Mom, you've really got to change that message." "I'll come by around 5:30 to pick you up for our big date." "And I'll make sure to get you back in time for Murder She Wrote." "Alright, bye." " Bon appetit." " Happy birthday, Mom." "(gasp) Oh, it's gorgeous." "Oh, this is the most beautiful thing" "I have ever received in my life." "How ever did you afford it?" " Stainless steel." " It's silver, you old lump." "Stainless steel." "Silver has... that distinguished look about it." "Anyway, as I was saying before," "I said to Leora she ought to have it looked at immediately." "So what does she do?" "She waits an entire month before she sees the doctor." "And then when she finally does see him, he orders a biopsy and it comes back positive." "Well, could you just die?" "I mean, if she had only taken my advice, she could have avoided this entire mess!" "I know we're going to eat dinner at some point and time." " The question is, when?" " Excuse me, I'm gonna go use the restroom." "Don't forget to wash your hands." "Now, where is my steak knife?" "My mother drives me crazy." "Now, I know that sounds pretty cliché, but how many people actually envision carving into their mother's neck and yanking out her vocal cords?" "Or ripping her tongue out and serving it to her as an early-bird special?" " Bonsoir." " Bonsoir." "Daniels." "Table for two." "Great." "I've got a table right here for you." " Thank you." " After you." "Why don't you sit on the other side?" "Get a view of the whole thing." "Excusez-moi, garcon." "Could I have un autre, uh... steak knife, s'il-vous-plait?" "Oh." " Of course." "Voila, madame." " Merci." "How about a table closer to the window?" " That would be very nice." " Okay, I'll ask." " Good evening." " Good evening." "I was wondering if we could get a table a little closer to the window." "That section is closed for Spring Break." "Sorry." "Uh, no problem." "I understand." "This table is fine." "Good." "So, can I get you something to drink?" "I'll have a whiskey sour." "Mom?" "I'll need some water so I can take my pills." "As I stare at myself in the mirror," "I realize that I can't let my mother get the best of me." "I'm Robert Starkman's next TA." "And that is where I'm going to focus my energies." "I should set up a meeting with Bobby when I get back to the dorm." "Maybe we can brainstorm at his cabin tonight." "I'll make him my special eggs." "Sorry." "Ready to order?" "Maybe you'd give us a little bit more time?" "Sure." "Of course." "I'll be just over there." " Take your time." " Thank you." " Cheers." " Cheers, my dear." "Cheers." "Oh my God." "Hello, Dr. Daniels." "It's great to see you." "And this must be your mother." "Well hello, Mrs. Daniels." "How are you doing this evening?" "Oh, I'm fine, dear." "Oh my God." "I just love that hat." "I would kill for a hat like that." "It is just so cute!" "You know what?" "I have to be getting back to my table." " It was great meeting you." " It was very nice meeting you too, sweetheart." "See you later, Eric." "Who is that pretty girl?" "A new girlfriend, I hope." "No." "She's a patient." "A very sick patient." " Would you excuse me for a second." " Yes, of course, dear." " I'll be right back." " Yes." "Excuse me." "Sorry to interrupt your dinner." "I'm a friend of your daughter's." "Ms. Newman, could I have a word with you for a moment?" "Sure." "Mom, Dad, I'll be just a minute." "Excuse me." "That's it." "I'm eating." "Didn't he just call her a different name?" "Alright, you have some explaining to do." "First of all, you insult me." "Then you threaten my mother." "You're having an affair with a married man." "Then I hear that you've hung yourself." "And now you act as if none of this ever happened." " So, what is going on?" " Wait, you heard I hung myself?" "Yes." "Eric, why would you say that?" "Let's just say a mutual friend told me that he found you hanging." "Dead." " Is this some sort of sick joke?" " He never found me." "He found her." "Her who?" "You know what, it doesn't even matter anymore." "It's not that important." "What's important is it's my mom's birthday, and I'm here with her." "I'll catch up with you later." "Goodbye." "Honey, why did he call you Ms. Newman?" "I don't know Mom." "Could we just eat, please?" " I have to go home and pack." " Oh honey, can't you cancel?" "We never get a chance to see you." "Look Mom, I wish I could, but I can't." " They're very special plans." " A boy?" " Yes, it's a boy." " Aww." "What's his name?" "Bobby Starkman." "Bobby?" " Hey, Jim." " Hey, Dr. Daniels." "Can I offer you a cup of this apricot-peppermint blend I got from New York?" "Thanks, Jim." "Listen, I think we might have a bit of trouble." " Is Harv in?" " Yeah, he's in the back." "Hey, if it ain't old Siggy Freud, himself!" " What's the good word, Doc?" " Not much, Harvey." "I want to file a missing person's report on Robert Starkman." " You're kidding?" " I wish I was." "His wife Diane called not 20 minutes ago trying to do the same thing." "Yeah, apparently he didn't show up at his in-laws' upstate like he was supposed to." " You're kidding?" " I wish I was." " It's been a crazy year for that kinda thing." " What do you mean?" "Well, it's the third MPR we've filed this year." "Right, Jimmy?" " That's a record around these parts, Doc." " Who else was there?" "Let's have a look." "I've got a brand new one here." "A woman, Gerty Fleck, from Student Services." "Just up and disappeared." "And of course, the Newman girl." " Newman?" " Yeah, about 7 months ago..." "A student, by the name of Rachael Newman, disappeared." "The first day of the Fall semester, actually." "Jimmy and I toodled up onto the campus to check it out." "And guess what?" "I'm Sheriff Winslow, and this is Deputy Duncan." "Just looking for a" " Are you Rachael Newman?" " Yeah." "Why, what's wrong?" "We're just checking on a MPR on yourself." "You're not missing, are you?" "No, I'm okay." "She was there, completely unharmed." "Are you sure I couldn't offer you a cup of tea?" "No, thanks, Jim." "I actually know this Rachael Newman girl." "I gotta be honest with you, I don't trust her one bit." "Are you telling me the parents just dropped the report?" "I never said nothing about parents, there, Doc." "The Newman girl, she was an orphan." "The report was filed by some student friends of hers." " But like I said, it was a false alarm." " How do you know it was the right girl?" "Well, there's only one Rachael Newman registered at West Washington." "Can I convince you guys to come to the campus with me to make sure everything's okay?" "Yeah, no problem, Doc." " Should I get in here?" " Yeah, that's fine." "(phone ringing)" "You're reached Pr." "Starkman in the Behavioral Sciences Department." "Please, leave a message." "Hey Bobby, it's me." "I'm almost done packing here." "I'll be there soon." "I hope you're as excited as I am." "Hey, if you need me to pick up anything from the store," "I'll be here another five minutes." "Otherwise, I'll see you soon." "I love you." "Bye." "God, you stink." "Now, how did you get open?" "You were'nt trying to sneak out on me now, were you?" "I just brought you up and you're already causing problems." "Don't fall apart on me now, Rach." "Wow!" "I like your room." "Actually," "I like your name too." "Rachael." "I mean, you don't mind if I borrow it for a bit, do you?" "Right, well, this is a wild-goose chase, I guess, Jimmy." " You have a good day, alright?" " You too." "Thank you, Officers." "Hey, Mom, I know I've been out of touch, but I got accepted to West Washington." "I know." "Can you believe it?" "It's so sad about your parents." "The whole car accident thing and all." "So tragic." "Must have been hard growing up an orphan." "But, I gotta tell you, I'm sure glad you shared it with me." "Oh, Bobby." "Now, I told you to get your beauty sleep." "We have a long night ahead of us." "Uhh, you're disgusting." "So, I'm two cans of gas and a brick away from Quantico." "All I've got to do is dot the "I's" and cross the "T's", and I'm home free." "Look out!" " Jesus jumped up--!" " I think that was the Newman girl!" "We're on the move, boys!" "Hang on!" "Not now, Bobby." "Just wait till we get to the cabin." "I'll make you a fire." "I'll heat you up real good." "Well, I think this qualifies as breaking the speed limit." " Don't you think?" " Doing?" "60..." " in a 35." " Yeah." "She's coming up on Old Mill Bend, boys." "She'll slow down for the curve there." " That's where we'll take her." " Alright, just ake it easy." " We don't want anyone getting hurt." " It's all under control, Doc." "That's 275 bucks." " Can you pull up next to her?" " Yeah, for a bit." "Jesus!" " Can you do something?" " Yeah." "Take the wheel, Doc." "She's slowing down." "That did the trick." "Doc, you stay here." "Just be careful." "She's a loose cannon." "It's all part of the job, right Jimmy?" "Ma'am." "Ma'am, you wanna open the door." "Come on!" "Come on, guys." "Don't let her get away!" "This don't look good." "Jesus." " What in the hell?" " Don't let it be Bobby." "Christ!" "Bobby." "How the hell..." "Starkman." " Where the heck is our lady friend?" " (tires screeching)" "Come on." "Bobby." "(explosion)" "Jesus!" "Bobby." "A bizarre killing spree finally came to an end last night when 18-year-old West Washington student Rachael Newman, now identified..." "Rachael Newman's killing spree is believed to have begun" "Wednesday evening with the murder of Gertrude Fleck..." "The body of Cassandra Blair was found" " hanging in her..." " Brian Leeds' body," " from the Leeds family..." " Keith Lawson was..." "The bodies of a West Washington security guards" " were found within hours..." " Once a typical All-American girl," "Rachael Newman's death leaves many questions unanswered." "The most burning question of all:" "Why?" "As a case-study," "Rachael Newman was as rare as they come." "She was more obsessed than Dahmer, she was more calculating than Bundy, and certainly more faceless than Bateman." "In a perfect world, she'd still be alive." "But for her, it all ended... in a blaze of fire in which she and her final victim, a friend of mine, Robert Starkman" "they burned to death." "I wish I had a chance to study her mind more, but all we ended up with were dental records." "All in all, she killed eight people." "Eight people which we know of." "Rachael Newman is one in a billion." "One in a billion." "She's in a league of her own." "But she will remain a constant and strong reminder that people aren't always what they seem to be." "Thanks for taking the time to come out." " Thank you for coming, Doctor." " It's a pleasure." " Who should I make it out to?" " Louis Okon." " Here you go." " Thank you." " Can I have a different pen?" " Here you go." " Who should I make it out to?" " Elizabeth..." " Elizabeth McGuire." " McGuire." "Your work is so inspiring." "It's a huge honor to meet you." "If you could be anyone in the world," " who would that be?" " Elizabeth McGuire," "Pr." "Starkman's present TA, and the next in line to go to Quantico." " You can't be?" " What, Eric?" "One in a billion?" "Hello, Dr. Daniels" " Do you know that girl?" " Who?" " Elizabeth McGuire." " You mean, Agent McGuire." "She's the first Quantico student in history to be drafted into the Bureau in her sophomore year." "Are you all right, Doctor?" "It's like they say..." ""The brightest futures are based on forgotten pasts."" "In the end, I did put Dr. Daniels in a bit of a pickle." "But you've got to give to take, you know?" "He gets his national best-seller, which is ever so flawed..." "I wonder how he sleeps at night, knowing I still walk the streets." "Me?" "I need for him to know."
