He stopped coming, even for outpatients, about a year ago. 197 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,077 I can't believe that he took that girl. 198 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:52,872 Quite likely he was involved with someone from his group. Do you have any files? 199 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,918 We're the government. Of course we have files. 200 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,910 - What are you looking for? - High intelligence, special training. 201 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,037 He wouldn't be infantry. 202 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,629 Oh, this isn't checked out.

They don't even have a name for what you're doing. 208 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:41,873 I'm doing everything I can to get her back. You think we're not trying? 209 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,634 - We took a big hit when you left. - Don't flatter me. 210 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,553 - It's true. - You don't even know the truth any more. 211 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,837 What do they want? How many times have you talked to them? 212 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,309 Their demands are never gonna be met. 213 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:58,031 - Never be met by you, her father? - Not by me.

Somebody to tell his story? 239 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,902 He told his story, no one listened. He wants 240 00:24:53,914 --> 00:24:56,592 a confession from the people responsible. 241 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,559 For what? Some figment of his imagination? 242 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,638 No, the same people that killed his partner. 243 00:25:02,650 --> 00:25:05,318 There's a reason he chose Taylor Watts. 244 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,189 So what do you suggest we do? 245 00:25:07,201 --> 00:25:09,758 He used to call into Alt Bell's talk show. 246 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,832 It's conspiracy stuff, a forum for people like Swan. 247 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,231 He called in dozens of times under the name Thomas Paine. 248 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:20,951 If he's still listening, I think we can get him to talk.
