- Lecturer: [shooting rubber bands at an anatomy poster] Ha ha ha... uh, a little target practice... Well, I take it for granted that you're all here because you want to be detectives - and that your time is short, so we will make it as brief as possible. Now, first of all, to be a detective, it's necessary to have somebody to detect - otherwise, you'll have playing the game alone. For this reason, it's necessary to recognize criminal types when you see them.
- Lecturer: Well, we can't have everything turn out just as we want it. That's part of the fun of being a detective - you never know quite how things are coming out.
- Lecturer: It is, however, a matter of pride to the real detective to be at the final incarceration of his prisoner, and to have a personal hand in putting him in jail - a very proud moment for everyone concerned.
