:15:23
Coco, you startled me.
:15:26
So you escaped the fire?
:15:28
Let me see those paws.
:15:31
I'll have to do something about those burns,
won't I?
:15:34
Come on, Coco.
:15:52
You've got that look
like you swallowed the canary.
:15:55
Not at all.
:15:56
If there's anything a man hates...
:15:57
it's to be told he's wrong
when he knows he's right.
:16:00
I knew Deemer had burnt your tail.
:16:03
Listen, I'm just a country doctor,
but I know what I know.
:16:06
And I know acromegalia doesn't turn up
in four days out of left field.
:16:09
So?
:16:11
So I went to the medical library in Phoenix
and read up on it.
:16:14
There wasn't one single recorded case
in medical history...
:16:17
where a malformation developed as fast
as Deemer said Jacobs' did.
:16:20
- You mean he was lying to us?
- I don't know.
:16:24
But I'd like to know why
he was in such a hurry to bury Jacobs...
:16:28
and why he didn't want me to do
an autopsy.
:16:30
The man's an M.D. like you.
He's entitled to his opinion.
:16:34
Or do you want me to charge him
with confusing a country doctor?
:16:37
There's nothing like the safety of prestige,
is there, Sheriff?
:16:40
Let's skip it.
:16:42
Everything's clean and legal...
:16:43
and I wouldn't want you
to stick your neck out for anything.
:16:46
What do you want me to do?
:16:47
Pinch him because I don't like the way
he parts his hair?
:16:50
Have you ever asked yourself
what Deemer and Jacobs...
:16:52
were working on in their lab?
:16:53
No, and I don't intend to jimmy open
a window to find out, either.
:16:58
Deemer's speciality is nutrient biology.
