I don’t quite understand what draws me on, but that’s OK because God doesn’t move us by telling us the facts …
… He moves us by pains and contradictions. He’s given me a lack of understanding, not answers but questions – an invitation to marvel. And here, for the first time, I have.
I never thought it would end like this. I never thought it would end at all.
FRANK: I guess that deep down I knew this hour would come. Thought I did everything I could to stop this from happening. What did I overlook? What could I have done? And now, what must I sacrifice to have her back safe?
WATTS: It’s all in your head, Frank. You’ve been telling people that we deliberately caused an outbreak –
ATKINS: - but I want you to know I was very upset when I opened the package and saw them. I can only imagine how you must have felt.
FRANK: Right.
ATKINS: I appreciate you confiding in me.
FRANK: You’re the reason I was even able to come back to work, Mike. That I’m a member of the Group.
ATKINS: Does Catherine have any idea yet these new photos were taken?
FRANK: (shakes his head) I never like to keep anything from her but we’ve barely settled in.
ATKINS: I think you’re right not to.
FRANK: Is that your threat assessment?
ATKINS: I think there’s a low-risk potential in the photographer escalating from the stalking phase. Been three years since his first mailing and he’s still keeping a safe distance. He doesn’t want to be discovered.
FRANK: Even though he has followed us to Seattle.
ATKINS: I would be more concerned if I thought this was really about Catherine or your daughter.
FRANK: What do you mean?
ATKINS: He sends the photos to you, Frank. The envelope has your name on it. What’s the object of terrorism?
FRANK: Terror.
ATKINS: That’s all he wants at this point.
FRANK: Then he’s a success. You got anything else, Mike?
ATKINS: Film was purchased in the state of Washington. Beyond that, he’s taken care not to contaminate the film or the package with anything I could pull.
FRANK: You come all the way out here just to allay my fears, Mike?
ATKINS: It would be the easiest thing in the world to go home, be with your family, Frank. But we need you here on this one. We need your abilities. I have a bad feeling about this case.
FRANK: I think it is not like any other case I’ve ever seen before.
ATKINS: That would be my threat assessment.
FRANK: No one’s going to want to believe that the killer comes from within.
