美剧【疑犯追踪】精读015 Number Crunch 不义之财

Scene 1 - surveillance video

CARTER: Here's how Jamie Hallen died. Ooh. Ugh. I persuaded a tech at the real time crime center to copy this for me. Two cars stopped after the crash. Crime center guys were able to read the plates. Prius registered to Claire Ryan, escort to Matt Duggan, so they're confirmed. But look at this.

FUSCO: Two more women. Mm-hmm. Crime center identify them?

CARTER: Nope. Camera's set for maximum field of view. Resolution's not enough for facial recognition. This is where it gets interesting.

FUSCO: Suitcase. That has to be the money. We got to find these girls before the killers do.

CARTER: Guy at the crime center said there's another detective looking for them. Detective Foster, 82nd precinct.

FUSCO: We got anything else?

CARTER: Yeah. This guy. About 30 minutes after the crash, he makes a phone call.

FUSCO: Wish we could hear what he was saying.

CARTER: Unfortunately, we're not the NSA. Vehicle must be new, 'cause look. There are no plates.

FUSCO: That's convenient. Want to get in some more trouble, Carter? Go talk to Detective Foster, and see if he knows anything.

CARTER: Be a pleasure.

Scene: 2 - the truth

REESE: Where's Paula?

Wendy: She's gone to get something to eat. We were worried about you.

REESE: Wasn't me they were trying to kill.

Wendy: I'm sorry we lied to you before.

REESE：You were at the crash scene. Want to tell me what happened?

Wendy：We were out walking. The car crashed almost in front of us. We ran up, found two people there already... Trying to help. The, uh-- The driver was dead-- Coke all over him. And a suitcase with, like, a million bucks in it. Young guy, fast car, cocaine, cash. I mean, the money had to be illegal.

REESE：So you took it.

Wendy：We divided it up... 250 grand each. Would have fixed everything. It was wrong. We knew it was wrong. We should have... Called 911, and walked away.

REESE: Where's the money?

Wendy: It's under mom's bed in there. The nurses think it's her knitting. $1/2 million worth of knitting.
