No agent Lisbon yes dr. Montague it's a pleasure to meet you and you must be Patrick Jane I must be you were saying we needed to talk yes dr. Mikey was consulting on the case oh yes she's a decision science consultant she works with the FBI and state agencies her work help bring in the court killer I'm developing a predictive computer model it identifies the patterns and crimes and assesses whether or not they were committed by the same perpetrator Wow cool the system's flagged your two murders as the re-emergence of a killer known as the caveman I remember he urged his victims with a wooden Club was 10 years ago indeed but the similarities between his victims and the victims in this case are statistically identical so the caveman always picks two victims one week apart the same physical attributes brunettes 120 240 pounds and every other respect the choice seems entirely random no Geographic or a demographic pattern victims are bludgeoned on the side of the head with a wooden object no evidence of sexual assault bodies are left in waste sites and scrap yards and the victims are unknown to each other this is classic Kate hmm well at least you're wrong with conviction please do it women knew each other how do you know that and then again the detail in this scarf about done by the same hand intriguing handicraft theory yeah but even if we were able to establish a link between the victims it doesn't exclude the caveman from being the killer it merely expands the modeling paradigm merely expands the modeling paradigm what was on the caveman known for sending poetry animal organs even crude drawings to the police and we haven't received anything like that we will hey boss Jonathan Valerie best-in was a financial director an online company called an John turtle dr. Montague this is agent Wayne Rigsby Rigsby dr. montegue some consulting on the case and you'll be her liaison let's pleasure beam you one show around sure I give you the 50 simple was throwing the magic rhyme section really a decision science consultant dental start this goes way above us we're good to the feds the feds be good to us when in doubt don't act out you just made it rhyme we won't ever end up seriously you start trouble and I will smile bubble you were right it wasn't a serial killer your mommy almost ran thank you forgotten it too useful brooch and I I was hoping that you know you might forgive me any misdirection I might have given you oh yes no no actually it was bracing to have one's operating principles challenge so robustly glad to be of service you know I've never participated in chicanery before I can't condone it as a system but I must admit that it adds zest to the task at hand in fact how did you figure it out that it was Esther and Nilda just a good guess when we first met with him they were masking shame no sadness and who likes lizards cold-blooded people lizards I think I shall stick with hard numbers I have another guest for you the caveman isn't coming back he's almost certainly dead possibly I have no personal bias on the matter the numbers will eventually reveal the truth either way they always do really believe it of course if you could stand far enough back to see the big picture everything is numbers speaking of which you gave me a gift so I must give you one I ran Red John to the modelling program you might find some of the datasets useful a lot of figures some graphs here that's right good luck thank you [Music] [Music] [Music]
