:17:01
l see.
:17:03
lt seems to tie the tool up with the lock.
:17:07
lf that microscope could only tell us
who did it.
:17:10
l'm working on that.
:17:12
Only an amateur would carry
that liquid dynamite in the car.
:17:15
This boy is no amateur.
:17:17
Took the precaution of desensitizing it,
so it'll take normal shock.
:17:20
Took a lot of other precautions, too.
:17:22
No fingerprints, no identification,
nothing definite.
:17:26
Except he's scientific.
:17:29
Knows electricity. He's inventive.
:17:33
Happy on the trigger.
:17:39
This is Captain Breen. Get me
Captain Stevens at Burglary, will you?
:17:43
l hate to disappoint you, Lee,
but l think you've come up with something.
:17:47
Hello, Steve? How are you?
:17:51
Did your daughter's marriage
come off all right?
:17:54
Good. Look, Steve, on those burglaries
of electrical equipment lately.
:17:59
Were there any
where picklocks were used to gain entry?
:18:05
Good. Let me know
if there's another report of one, will you?
:18:09
l've got an idea the Rowlins killer
may be tied in with those.
:18:13
Fine. And give my regards
to the newlyweds, too.
:18:17
So long, Steve.
:18:21
What are you waiting for?
You've got a job, haven't you? Get going.
:18:25
Let's go, junior.
:18:26
Hold this for me, will you, Lee? Thanks.
:18:32
And so, with no fingerprints
and only a vague description to go by...
:18:35
Sergeant Brennan
turned to the modus operandi file.
:18:38
A criminal, like any human being,
has his own habit patterns...
:18:41
unconscious traits
that can lead to his downfall.
:18:50
Here they are, junior.
:18:51
List of burglars who use picklocks for entry.
:18:54
Great. This narrows it down to just
a couple of hundred suspects in this area.
:18:58
Give me a match, will you?
