  • Marisa: There's no question. It's definitely an alligator.
  • Madeline: I see. Well how large do you think it is from the photographs you've seen?
  • Marisa: If it's been living in the sewer, it couldn't be very large. Even under ideal circumstances, in a zoo for example, they don't grow nearly as large as they would in their natural habitat.
