:05:00
This is a song we have heard
from you more than once.
:05:03
Now, there are two courses
open to me.
:05:07
First, I can let you cool
your heels in the cells...
:05:11
until you learn respect
for the dignity...
:05:14
- of my office.
- I beg pardon.
:05:15
But why am I the only one
who sees that to solve crimes,
:05:19
to detect the guilty,
we must use our brains...
:05:23
to recognize vital clues...
:05:25
using up-to-date
scientific techniques?
:05:27
Which brings me
to the second course.
:05:31
There is a town upstate,
two days' journey to the north...
:05:35
in the Hudson highlands.
:05:37
It is a place called
Sleepy Hollow.
:05:40
Have you heard of it?
:05:42
I have not.
:05:44
An isolated farming community,
mainly Dutch.
:05:47
Three persons have been murdered there,
all within a fortnight.
:05:52
Each one found
with the head...
:05:55
- lopped off.
- Lopped off?
:05:58
Clean as dandelion heads,
apparently.
:06:03
You will take these experimentation
of yours to Sleepy Hollow,
:06:07
and there you will detect
the murderer.
:06:10
Bring him here to face
our good justice.
:06:15
Will you do this?
:06:17
I shall.
:06:20
Remember, it is you,
:06:23
Ichabod Crane,
:06:25
who is now
put to the test.
