OLD MAN COOPER:
Well first I noticed a peculiar fly and insects
around this area, the I thought the stench was
abit odd ya know? (NERVOUSLY) so I...I, I went
in for a closer look, and my god it was horrible!
(FRIGHTENED) A sight that i'll never forget. no
doubt. I've seen a lot of things over my life
time, but JEEZ LOUISE! AND THAT FOUL
STENCH OH MY!
ADAM KOWALSKI:
Calm down sir, we're going to get to the
bottom of thi- (Cut off by EVE SAWYER)
EVE SAWYER:
Kowalski! Found something interesting!
ADAM TRENDS OVER THE WET MUDDY GRASS OVER TO EVE WHO HAS FOUND
ANOTHER BODY, THIS ONE IS HEADLESS AND OLDER THAT THE GIRLS' BODY. THE
CORPSE ALSO HAS THE STRANGE ENGRAVING ON ITS LOWER BACK. TOM COOPER
WALKS OVER TO THE COOPER TO TRY AND GET MORE ANSWERS.
ADAM KOWALSKI:
What is it... Oh christ!
EVE SAWYER:
Yeah.
EVE SAWYER:
This one's at least 2 month old, kinda reminds
me of a case I was assigned to, two years ago
back in Peru, we found strange engravings on
people's bodies, dead and alive. I think it was
some sort of cult they believed that if they wore
these symbols, then their god would spare
them when the end of the world happened.

ADAM KOWALSKI:
You think this girl, or what's left of her, was part
of some cult?
EVE SAWYER:
Looks at the marks on their bodies, they're
identical. That's no coincidence Adam.
ADAM KOWALSKI:
Hmm some thing does seem a little fishy, I don'
like that farmer, he creeps me out.
EVE SAWYER:
More than two corpses?
ADAM KOWALSKI:
That's different.
EVE SAWYER:
You think he did it?
ADAM KOWALSKI:
Well what are the odds that two bodies are
found on HIS farm at the same time on the
same exact day?
EVE SAWYER:
Could be someone trying to frame him
ADAM KOWALSKI:
I don't know. But I don't like it.
ADAM ASKS TOM FOR A WORD IN PRIVATE ABOUT THE FARMER. TOM IS SMOKING
A CIGAR. THE THREE START TALKING ABOUT COOPER'S HISTORY AND RECENT
ACTIVITIES. TOM DOES NOT LIKE ADAMS ACCUSATIONS ABOUT COOPER.
TOM HE ABRUPTLY DENIES THAT COOPER HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE
MURDER/S OTHER THAN THAT THE CRIME SCENE IS ON HIS FARM.
ADAM KOWALSKI:
So who exactly is this 'Old Man' Jefferson
anyway?

TOM COOPER:
Now hold on a minute you're not seriously
implying that the old man had anything to do
with the murders are you?!
ADAM KOWALSKI:
Hey all I asked was who he was.
TOM COOPER:
No! I know your type.
EVE SAWYER:
"Type?
TOM COOPER:
Agency.
EVE SAWYER:
why so quick to deny he had anything to do
with it?
TOM COOPER:
Because he's my old man. That's why. couldn't
you two Agency folks put that together? I
thought you were meant to be smart.
EVE SAWYER:
I'm sorry Mr Cooper, but we can't rule out
suspects just because he's family.
TOM COOPER:
You Damn well can and will! This is my case and
my town so let me do my damn job! I have
authority here!
ADAM KOWALSKI:
Sorry! But that's not your decision. It's the
governments'.
