Clarice (2021–…): Season 1, Episode 6 - How Does It Feel to Be So Beautiful - full transcript

CLARICE: Previously on Clarice:

CLARICE: Angela
Bird, Tess Laughty,

Sandra Bishop, and
Rebecca Clark-Sherman.

They were not random
victims of a serial killer.

Those women were whistleblowers,

and Rebecca was
gonna tell their story.

RUTH: Catherine thinks you're
the only one who can help her.

Please start
returning her calls.

- Can you sleep?
- [Gasps]

Or do moths wake you up?

There's no one for you.



- Just me.
- [Gasps]

Separating was about
stopping drinking, and I have.

The kids stay with me. And no judge
in America is gonna say any different.

Rebecca was looking
for a Dr. Marilyn Felker,

who was the lead
physician at the Lockyer Labs

clinical trials the
whistleblowers were in.

We wanted to talk to
you about your sister.

We may be twins, but Marilyn and I
haven't spoken in a few years now.

[Gasps]

MAN: [over phone] Get
me whatever the FBI knows.

The reporter, Rebecca
Clark-Sherman.

- [Paddles whining]
- Tell me everything she told you

about me and
the clinical trials.

- She didn't say anything.
- Sure, she did.



- [Electricity zaps]
- [Groans]

[Coughing]

[Gasps] Call FBI.

FBI!

There was a man. I
couldn't see his face.

- CLARICE: I wasn't dreaming.
- ARDELIA: No. It happened.

I see you. I hear
you. It happened.

There was a man there.
He hit me. I just... I couldn't...

- I can't remember his face.
- That's not unusual.

- But if we're gonna find him...
- Oh, believe me. I'll find him.

You dug in and held
on to a piece of him.

He can't hide. He's
there, under your nails.

His DNA.

I hope we can find him.

- I just wish I could remember.
- It's not on you.

It's not on any of us. It's on that
bastard that put you here. Right?

[Sighs]

[Sniffles]

Home. Home.

[Ring echoes]

WOMAN: When you hear
that sound, open your eyes

and tell me where you are.

[Electricity buzzes]

[Bell dings]

Where are you?

CLARICE: Woodhaven.

WOMAN: Are you alone?

CLARICE: No.

There are people... patients.

My throat burns real bad.

- I can bring you out.
- No. Wait.

I need to know.

[Exhales sharply]

My legs... I'm gonna fall.

Then fall.

[Truck horn blares]

- WOMAN: Where are you?
- I'm on the floor.

You don't think
hypnosis is a stretch?

Cognitive interview.

Starling says there was
someone else there that night.

I can't get up.

KRENDLER: How
could she remember?

She was pumped to the
eyeballs with narcotics.

WOMAN: So, what do you do?

I crawl.

I keep moving.

MARILYN: [Distorted voice] You
don't understand my humanity.

CLARICE: Marilyn's behind me.

- WOMAN: I can bring you out.
- CLARICE: No. Wait.

I see a man.

I see a man in a suit.

He sees me.

MAN: Precious!

- What's happening?
- He's walking toward me.

WOMAN: Describe him.

CLARICE: I see...

I see...

How does it feel
to be so beautiful?

[Gasping]

Who? Who did you see?

I couldn't get his face.

Can we try again? I
can... I can do it again.

You can't rush it.

- TRIPATHI: Ah.
- [Door opens, closes]

- Whose idea was it to try this?
- His majesty.

Hey, Organized
Crime swears by Dr. Li.

I gotta go.

Tell Starling she's on
leave. Non-negotiable.

Whoa-oh-oh. She might hear
that better coming from you.

- You do it. I'm late.
- Oh, really?

Mandy's been meeting with
every divorce lawyer in the District.

- To lock you out?
- She got mean pretty quick.

Anyway, this guy, his kid
used to go to Jason's school.

He reached out. And
he's well recommended.

I hope that means he's a prick.

He has a reputation.
Do you have to...

I do. You're doing
the work, Paul.

She's always
looking for shortcuts.

Your majesty, fill out the
paperwork for all this hypnosis.

I don't need accounting
breathing down my neck.

[Telephone rings]

[Door beeps, unlocks]

The DNA results came back
from your fingernails. Inconclusive.

Wait, what? What, there
wasn't enough material, or...?

CLARKE: I don't know. Maybe
you didn't grab a mystery man's hand.

Look, you were drugged.
Maybe... Maybe there wasn't...

What is it that you don't want
to believe here, Clarke? Huh?

Okay. Okay. Tripathi and I are
heading over to Lockyer Labs.

Maybe we can find out more
about the man who attacked you.

He knew Marilyn Felker,
and she ran the clinical trials.

- Okay, great. I'll ride along.
- You? No.

Admin leave?

Boss says, and it's Bu standard
when we experience trauma in the field.

- Hey, it's not like I was shot.
- Yeah, yeah.

Clarice, listen, I'll shoot you

if it'll make you sit your
ass down for two weeks.

Hear, hear.

If we don't find something soon,

this whole case will be
on the shelf in two weeks.

Dr. Li said to call her if you
want to talk through anything.

- Ardelia.
- I said I'd escort you out the building.

[Sighs]

Some guy hit me across
the head with a phone.

I am pissed off, and I know
that he has something to do

with the women we pulled out
of that river. I am going to get him.

I hear you. But you know
who you need to talk to.

She specializes in trauma.

Thank you.

Oh. Oh, you're
carrying a big folder.

I heard a thing in the ladies.

Congressman Gant sent a letter
demanding an audit of the DOJ.

- Can you snag me a copy?
- Yeah.

- Clarice, what are you doing here?
- Afternoon, ma'am.

I was wondering if you
could spare a few minutes.

Sure.

If I over-rule Krendler, and all
existing protocols, by the way,

I risk putting you out there
when you're far from 100%.

You need to take a minute.

Ma'am, I know what I need,
and it is not to take a minute.

- But it's not about you.
- No, it's not.

It's about justice for
those whistleblowers,

but they don't
get to fight for it.

- I'm still here.
- Barely.

You're practically a
martyr to the victims.

Respectfully, isn't that why
you brought me in, ma'am?

You're pretty savvy
for a country girl.

Not savvy enough to see that
you should stop avoiding Catherine.

I know she's still calling you.
Why won't you talk to her?

I suspect it would do you both
good to talk to someone who's...

been there.

- I don't think I can help her.
- You could certainly try.

If you're asking me to risk
my reputation on your behalf,

then you can damn well
come to dinner. Tonight.

7:00.

Catherine needs this,
and I think you do, too.

♪ In the precious
blood of the Lamb ♪

[Charcoal scratching on paper]

[Scratching continues]

I told you to knock.

I invited Clarice
Starling for dinner.

- [Scratching stops]
- Why?

I thought you'd like that.

Make it for another night.

- Why?
- Can't tonight.

- I was going to...
- [Precious barks]

I wanted to finish this
series of sketches, and then...

There's time for you to
do your sketches later.

You have been
asking for Clarice.

I know I've been asking, but I
don't want to talk to her now.

- I already talked to her.
- When?

- She called you back?
- Not really.

I left a message
pretending I was you.

- [Precious barks]
- She thought she was calling you.

- What?! Catherine, are you...
- Crazy?

- I didn't say that.
- You never get it.

- [Precious barks]
- Dad would have gotten it.

- Dad would have understood.
- [Scraping resumes]

I wish he was here, too.

But he isn't, so what
I was going to say

is that Starling is a Federal
Agent under my command.

Calling her pretending
to be me, it's... it's...

it's just inappropriate.

Well, you wouldn't help me,
and nobody would help me,

and I feel like a total, crazy idiot,
and I don't want to see her now!

Catherine, I am not calling
this off. Go take a shower.

You come and join
us at the table like a...

Like a what?

Dinner is at 7:00.

ARDELIA: You know,
you don't have to go.

Martin doesn't have any
idea how to reach Catherine.

- She thinks I do.
- Mm-hmm.

So, you're going over
there with a PEZ Dispenser

full of magical thinking,
they'll have a happy reunion,

and you'll go back in the
field against all rational advice.

- [Pops lips]
- Well, yeah.

[Sighs]

You know what people do
after they've been kidnapped

- by a crazy lady dressed as a nurse?
- Write to Penthouse?

I was going to say they stand
down and have a human life.

With laughing and movies
and bowling and stuff.

They don't re-traumatize themselves.
There's a reason you've been hiding.

I said what I said. Hiding
from Catherine all this time.

After a year, it's gonna
be a lot, seeing her.

- I'm good.
- Really?

Is that why you're wearing
two different shoes?

Look.

Clarice, I know you want to
be reinstated, but don't do this.

CLARICE: She's the Attorney
General of the United States.

I can borrow these, right?

- [Chuckles] Yeah.
- Bye.

I do not approve.

ESQUIVEL: This entire
building, all these offices,

they're trading in the life
and death of human beings.

- So do we. You're so bleak.
- I get it from my mom.

Gentlemen, I'm Andrea
Bauer, general counsel.

We were supposed to meet
with Brandon Culper, your CEO.

We're here regarding
Marilyn Felker.

We're looking for
an associate of hers

and anyone at your company
she may have been connected to.

Agents, we have every intention
of cooperating with any investigation

that you're putting forward, but
it's our policy that investigators

must comply with
investigative norms,

which include the procurement
of subpoenas and warrants.

Wow. That's a lot of syllables.

The assistant US Attorney
there is expecting you

and can help you
with those subpoenas.

Thanks for your time.

That sit right with you?

Don't you think that the
company that tests medicine

should make helping
people their first priority?

Be crazy to think that we'd find

any sort of higher calling
when it comes to Big Pharma.

That's pretty cynical, Shaan.

Look, every second of every day,
some family shows up on their knees

at the doors to a hospital.

You know what part of the
hospital I still sort of believe in?

The maternity ward. The
babies. That's beautiful.

- Wait. You don't have kids.
- [Sighs]

Right?

No, my wife passed away.

Cancer.

Aw. I'm sorry.

You know, um, they're
pumping her full of stuff,

and, uh, her parents are...

You know, they're pumping
her full of stuff, and she's crying,

not because it hurts, not
because her hair's falling out

or she's turning
green or her teeth are...

She's crying because
she's scared if she lives,

to have a baby.

She's afraid that her body's
scorched-earth radioactive,

and Big Pharma says, "No.
Just wait two years after chemo.

Wait five years after chemo,
and you won't have a monster."

She's crying, and they're telling
her everything's gonna be fine.

"You don't have to give up
your dream of having a family.

But your baby might
have congenital problems.

Or your baby might
die after six months."

So she's apologizing
to her parents.

She's apologizing to
me... for getting cancer.

[Paper thuds]

- [Pen scratching]
- What's her name?

[Chuckles] Sosi.

- I bet she was a beautiful person.
- [Keypad clicking]

[Inhales deeply] Yeah.

So, why am I here, Joe?

Here's the thing,
Paul. I'm a lawyer.

I'm even a scary
lawyer, but I'm not a prick.

This town is small.

I'm from Hershey, Pennsylvania.
My dad worked the parks.

D.C. is Mandy's home
turf. She grew up here.

I know. I have clients at Brookings.
I heard you two were having...

trouble, and I, uh...
And I reached out.

- Why?
- Because I remember...

vividly seeing Mandy pick
your kids up from school.

It wasn't ideal.

Paul, I've been
exactly where you are.

D.C. takes care of its
own. Mandy's wired in.

That's why she's been
able to conflict you

out of any other
option for a lawyer.

But lucky for
you, I'm available,

and I would be happy to
represent you for your divorce.

She's not her...
best self presently.

No. She's not.

- Not a lot of people get that.
- Yeah.

Mandy can't see herself as
someone who loses her kids.

She just can't.

Blows up every idea
she had of herself.

It's gonna be a real
fight for you, Paul.

About 88% of cases end
with the mother getting custody,

whether or not
she's the right parent.

In my case, my ex-wife
most certainly was not.

I miss my kids. I worry about
them. I don't like what Mandy's doing.

I didn't like it when it was done to
me. But I think we can win for you.

And I want to. That's it. That's
why I asked you to dinner.

[Pager vibrates, beeps]

- Actually, I've gotta go.
- Oh. Is everything alright?

Uh, work. Sorry.

No. Not at all. I hope
we can do this again.

Sure.

[Inhales sharply, groans]

Crap.

[Handset beeps, dial tone]

[Dialing, line rings]

- AL: You've reached inventory.
- Hey, Al, it's Ardelia.

- Hey, beautiful.
- I'm calling to follow up

on those fingernail
scrapings you tested for me.

Oh, right, from Starling.

Real bummer it came
up inconclusive for DNA.

- We all want to catch the guy.
- ARDELIA: Yeah, we do.

Let me ask you off the record.
Where do the scrapings go?

- AL: Um, why?
- ARDELIA: Don't ask why.

AL: The hazmat Dumpster
behind Buzzard's Point.

That's great. Thank you.

[Piano music plays in distance]

[Breathes deeply]

[Footsteps]

CLARICE: Hello?

Uh, hello. I'm Clarice Starling.

- I'm here to see...
- Of course. Please, come in.

- May I take your coat?
- Uh, yes.

Thank you.

- Um, I didn't get your name.
- RUTH: It's Bea.

Bea's been with us since
Catherine was a baby.

Um, Bea, can I steal you
in the kitchen for a moment?

Clarice, go on in and take a
seat. Catherine will be right in.

Thank you. Thank you
for bringing her back to us.

Oh, I'm glad you're here.

[Suspenseful music plays]

[Sniffing] Mm.

[Paws clicking,
Precious barking]

[Precious pants, grunts]

- Precious?
- [Precious sniffs]

CATHERINE: She had a bath.

I've been calling to apologize.

I shouldn't have acted
like that when we talked.

- No. It's okay.
- I'm sorry.

- There are bad days.
- Yeah, of course.

But I'm not at the bottom
of a well. So... [Chuckles]

[Chuckles] Yeah.

[Sniffing]

- Does it hurt?
- What?

- Your face.
- Oh.

Uh... it's nothing.

- I heard all about it.
- Oh.

Well, it's an open
investigation.

[Precious urinating]

[Precious barks]

You're dressed for dinner.

- You look...
- I look what?

You look lovely.

I'm going to ha... Hell, I'm
gonna have some bourbon.

- Ladies?
- Yes, thank you.

Just water.

So... what are we
going to drink to?

How about Clarice
feeling better after she...

That's very thoughtful
of you, Catherine.

Are you feeling better, Clarice?

- Yes. Yes, thank you, ma'am.
- Okay.

Here's to feeling better.

[Glasses clink]

[Inhales deeply] Phew.

[Telephone dialing, line rings]

- AL: You've reached inventory.
- Al. I know it's late.

I've got a sample that I
need you to run ASAP.

- AL: I was just about to head home.
- ARDELIA: Great. I'll be right there.

Let me into the
lab. I'll run it myself.

AL: Okay. But you
can't tell anyone.

- Okay.
- Get here quick.

I'm coming now.

[Plate scraping]

[Soft piano music plays]

Catherine. How are you?

Good days and bad days.
It's hard to get out of the house.

Oh, of course.

I'm not stupid,
but I feel stupid.

Of course you're
not. That's ridiculous.

- [Precious barking]
- I'm not lazy, but I feel lazy.

- Does that make sense?
- Catherine, you're not lazy.

Compared to you, we all are.

- [Chuckles] I can't say I disagree.
- [Knife scrapes]

- RUTH: Bea made a lovely dinner.
- Mmm. Yes, she did. Thank you.

Tom's family always had
proper English nannies.

- [Knife scraping]
- I grew up wearing hand-me-downs.

- You did, ma'am?
- Yes.

So, it took some
getting used to,

but Bea's become
part of the family now.

Catherine, Bea
made a lovely dinner.

[Barking]

- [Scraping continues]
- [Barking continues]

Catherine, it's a part
of moving through it.

- What is?
- The shame.

RUTH: Excuse me? What shame?

- Shame?
- I can't eat this.

- I need my regular plate.
- Catherine...

Bea?

May I have my
regular plate, please?

Of course.

[Precious whining]

[Ominous music plays]

[Plastic scraping]

RUTH: Catherine.

- Catherine.
- What?

Ma'am...

Can you please be
an adult at this table?

- No.
- I think I should go.

You're making
quite an impression.

Ma'am, with all respect,
this is Bill. This is not her.

Please don't defend me.

This is her carrying Buffalo
Bill. This is you carrying Bill.

Ma'am, when I went in there, I
was a trained agent with a weapon

following a known protocol
that I did not deviate from.

I locked down the scene, and
I called for backup right away.

I knew my job. Catherine
didn't have that advantage.

Something's arrived
for you, Mrs. Martin.

From my office?

I, um...

Excuse me.

[Precious barking]

[Gearshift clicks,
engine shuts off]

[Sighs]

- What's going on?
- ALISON: Daddy!

- Hey.
- [TV chatter]

[Chuckles] Ooh!

- Where's, uh, Mom?
- She's sleeping.

Jason made me mac and cheese.

I want to show you
something in my room.

Okay, baby, you
go finish your dinner.

[Grunts]

I went in to ask about
carpool tomorrow,

and she won't wake up.
I can't wake her up, Dad.

Wait outside a sec.

Babe. Mandy.

Mandy. Babe.

Mandy. Mandy.

- Mandy.
- [Groans]

Mandy.

[Sighs]

[Sniffs]

She's okay, bud.

She's fine.

She take one of
her... one of her pills?

You know what?

I think she did.

Those things can
really knock her out.

She wouldn't move. I didn't
want to freak out Alison.

That was good. That was smart.

You did good. Mom's okay.
Never hesitate to page me.

You can call me
whenever you need to.

Pack some things and get Alison.
You're gonna stay with me tonight.

Okay.

[Soft piano music plays]

For you.

CATHERINE: It's getting
cold, and you wear a scarf,

and I thought, well,
you might like a new one.

- Did you make this?
- It's alpaca fleece.

It's lighter than
wool, but warmer.

The color suits you.

All these tiny stitches.
It must have taken you...

I used to love to sew.

Ironic, huh?

Now I knit.

Well, thank you.

It really isn't necessary.

Because you were just
doing your job that day?

CLARICE: Your
father has a kind face.

- He passed away.
- Mine, too.

I found where his mother lives.

- Whose mother?
- Buffalo Bill's.

Jame Gumb's.

Her name is Lila. She
changed her last name...

- Catherine, why do you want to...
- but I found her.

- I'm going to go see her.
- Catherine, I don't understand.

Why do you want
to meet Bill's mother?

Don't you?

[Footsteps approach]

[Sighs]

Clarice, I...

I thought it might
help for us to...

talk to each other.

I appreciate you coming,
but I don't think it was... right.

The right choice.

- Ma'am, I believe...
- No. Let me finish.

What is it? What's so funny?

- Vintage you.
- What does that mean?

You're reminding her
she's under your control

and simultaneously reminding
me that she's not here for me.

She's here because of you.

You're the Captain of the US
Emotional Gymnastics Team.

Congratulations. You get
the gold in Manipulation.

Why must you do this?

You don't get to
approve of how I am now.

You were saved.

If anything is
mine in this house,

anything, it's my story.

And you took it and used it.

You think I didn't
get that part?

And now you're
trying to take hers.

I have a story, too, Catherine.

I'd like to hear it.

It's about a young
girl who fell in love

with the worst thing that
ever happened to her.

She loves it so much, she
makes everyone relive it

day after day after day.

Nothing else matters.
No air can come in.

She makes
everyone just smell it.

She makes the
whole house smell of it.

She gave it her
body. She's in love.

And the only thing the people
who love her ever wanted

was for it to never,
ever have happened.

If it had never, ever
happened, Mom,

you'd still be the junior
Senator from Tennessee.

I'm very glad your
father is not alive...

to see you like this.

[Scoffs]

[Door slams]

[Precious whines]

[Sighs]

- Benita Sage?
- You the FBI guys?

- You're late.
- Sorry.

Traffic coming back down I-95.

Uh, as you know, Andrea Bauer,

the General Counsel
of Lockyer Labs, sent us.

We're... we're
investigating a doctor.

- Felker, right?
- Yeah.

We're looking for
an associate of hers.

Bauer says that you can help us
with some subpoenas and warrants.

- Not going to happen.
- You haven't even heard our case.

Lockyer works with the largest
drug companies in the world

who've got armies of lawyers.

I put together malfeasance cases
on three Big Pharma companies.

All I got were scars and
no convictions to show for it.

Look, um, we think that the
company that Felker worked for

silenced three whistleblowers.

And did a professional hit on a
witness inside the FBI building.

I lost my assistant trying
to get them. You know why?

They subpoenaed
her 82-year-old mother,

who all of a sudden
lost her health coverage.

Funny how that worked.
They can't just be killing people.

I'm saying no to
the warrants for now.

[Telephones ringing]

[Siren wails in distance]

I need to talk to someone.

Like a ViCAP someone.

[Sighs]

Starling's DNA results
came back with a positive.

I thought they were a dead end.

I used a dummy name
from an old cold case.

Without Starling's name,
the results were different.

Starling's guy is real.

Someone doesn't
want us to know that.

So, this someone tampered
with the results of the first test?

That's right.

We know someone
changed the autopsy results.

Maybe it's the same someone.

Esquivel and Tripathi
are on their way back.

- You planning on telling them?
- Have to.

We keep the circle of people who
know about this tight and quiet, huh?

Yeah. Yeah.

- Catherine?
- My mother's got no idea...

I'm not here about your mother.
I'm here about Bill's mother.

Why did you look for her?

- Catherine?
- You know what's weird?

- I thought you'd be pleased.
- Why?

Because she had a
hand in making him

and I have to know her
and make her see... me.

I can't just know
nothing. This is my life.

Catherine, I almost never make
promises, but I can promise you...

whatever it is you want from
her, you are not gonna get it.

- You don't know that.
- Yes, I do. My job is knowing.

You don't know anything.
I heard you crying.

- What? When?
- In the basement.

You didn't call
anyone. Not right away.

- What?
- I heard a gun.

[Gunshot]

And then I didn't hear anything.

I thought he killed you and I
was gonna die there in the dark.

- [Screams]
- And then I heard you crying.

- For a long time.
- No, that's not...

Catherine, I shot him...

and then I reloaded, and
then I called in right away.

You think that.

I had Precious
with me. She peed.

Three times.

You were crying, and you didn't
stop until I started screaming again.

- No, that's not how it...
- The last thing he said was,

"How does it feel
to be so beautiful?"

[Gunshot]

You don't remember.

- [Chokes]
- [Gasps]

Everyone thinks they
know better than me.

[Door closes]

[Door opens]

Ma'am, I think we
should go get her.

I'm afraid she's gonna
do something... rash.

If she could make it past
the elevator, I'd be worried.

Ma'am, you brought me
here, and you used my very...

complicated relationship
to Catherine as a tool.

You used us for you.

- [Sighs]
- [Door opens]

[Crying softly]

[Door closes]

I used you for me
and my daughter.

[Catherine wailing]

And it didn't work.

- Shall we talk about your job?
- Not like this.

[Wailing continues]

[Catherine screaming]

[Door opens, closes]

[Screaming continues]

[Indistinct chatter
in foreign language]

[Horn honks]

LI: The work I do for
the FBI is a sideline.

Something that's an
area of interest for me.

But this is where I started
my mental health work.

I see.

So... what can I do for you?

I need to know if I'm remembering
things as they happened.

First of all, no one does that.
Everything is tinged by experience.

And are you sure you
want to remember?

You seemed reticent
in our last session.

It's not a sin to have
a few blank spots.

It is for me.

ESQUIVEL: Evidence
tampering. Man.

And your AUSA is telling us
it's going to be uphill all the way.

- Uphill and plague of locusts.
- Where are you heading?

To ask Krendler if we
should bring this to Sage.

She said we should call
if anything else came up.

- Hold off a beat.
- What?

We're being thwarted at every
turn by someone with access.

We need to be airtight before
we start making some noise.

Okay.

[Breathes deeply]

[Bell rings]

[Gunshot]

[Gurgling]

CLARICE: I'm watching him die.

He's bleeding from the mouth.

He's saying, "How does
it feel to be so beautiful?"

[Coughs]

[Gurgles]

[Precious barking]

[Crying]

CATHERINE: Hello? Hello?

Are you alive, you bitch?

- [Crying continues]
- Hello?

Please, God, are you alive?

CLARICE: How
could I have seen this?

LI: Why?

CLARICE: Because the darkness
felt so much thicker than this.

LI: Then let it go dark.

[Precious barks]

LI: How does it feel
to be so beautiful?

[Breathing heavily]

She was right.

Catherine's right. [Sniffles]

No one's coming. [Crying]

[Screaming]

No one's coming.

Clarice.

- You fall.
- [Bell dings]

You're on the floor.

You're not sure if
Marilyn is behind you.

Crawl. Crawl for your life.

There's a man up
ahead. Don't look away.

I'm not. I'm not looking away.

LI: Do you see him?

[Exhales sharply] Yes.

LI: Do you see him clearly?

CLARICE: I see...

I see his face.

[Gasps]

Do you know him?

No.

KRENDLER: I know
it's gonna be a fight,

but I'd like to inflict as
little damage as possible.

It's no way for my kids to live,
seeing their mother like that.

I want sole custody.

- HUDLIN: [Crunching]
- I'd like to retain you.

- I'm grateful, Paul.
- [Bag crinkles]

Thank you for the trust.
