Bill Searle
- Bill Searle: he's not so dangerous in a cage.
- Oliver Yates: When we get finished testing we're going to have to free up some of these other exhibits so we can give this new leopard some extra space.
- Bill Searle: You're going to have to disarm him.
- Bronte Judson: What does that involve?
- Oliver Yates: Not much. Cut its claws, root canals. File and crown it's fangs. There's a dentist in town that does the work. Uh.. Radenauer.
- Bronte Judson: Tom Radenauer?
- Oliver Yates: Yeah, he does people too.
- Bronte Judson: Yeah I know he's my dentist. Shit Oliver, we don't have the funds for this. You know how it's been coming down lately. Aren't there any other alternatives.
- Oliver Yates: Not really. Because of its history it's no good for breeding. If we try trading it to another zoo I'm afraid it's erratic behavior they just wouldn't take it.
- Bill Searle: You could euthanize it.
- Bronte Judson: What's that kill it?
- Oliver Yates: It's not an acceptable solution.
- Bronte Judson: How much would that cost?
- Oliver Yates: I said it's not acceptable.
- Bronte Judson: Can we at least discuss it?
- Oliver Yates: Look I'll put up with being underbudgeted and understaffed and the fact that these exhibits we're built in 1901 and are falling apart but I will not put up with that crap.
- Bronte Judson: Fine, calm down. I only asked.
- Alice Perrin: Looks like we have a gourmet leopard on our hands. He threw up in the cage, Joe found pizza in the vomit.
- Joe Creigh: Yeah, sure did. Ew pepperoni.
- Bronte Judson: Leopards eat pizza?
- Joe Creigh: Well there's scavengers, he probably raided a garbage can before he went to the massage parlor.
- Alice Perrin: Doesn't look like he went there out of hunger.
- Joe Creigh: Maybe he was horny. Always the possibility.
- Oliver Yates: Anything else?
- Alice Perrin: Nothing. No worms, no distemper, no encephalitis. Whoever owns him takes good care of him.
- Oliver Yates: Sure does. He's a superb cat.
- Bill Searle: [indifferent] a superb cat? He's a menace.
- Bill Searle: The leopards probably out of the parish by now, unless he's dead.
- Oliver Yates: I'll believe it when I see it.
- Bill Searle: I don't think you're gonna see it
- Oliver Yates: What do you mean?
- Bill Searle: Well, I've been talkin' to the sheriff's department. They're gonna call it off. We can't afford the manpower anymore or the time. It's been over a week now.
- Oliver Yates: What, are you outta your mind?
- Bill Searle: They set their traps. They did everything they could. What do you want?
- Oliver Yates: Is that what you're gonna say the next time it kills?
- Bill Searle: Hey don't give me that shit Oliver. You're the one who wouldn't shoot the bastard when you had him in a cage.
- [Oliver punches him]
- Oliver Yates: Look man I'm sorry. I don't know why I did that. I'm sorry.
- Bill Searle: Yeah, well, fuck you.
- Oliver Yates: He's right.
- Alice Perrin: No, he's not.
- Oliver Yates: Yeah well how the hell would you know, huh?
- Alice Perrin: What?
- Oliver Yates: Uh...
- Alice Perrin: What?
- Oliver Yates: Nothin'.
- Alice Perrin: How's Irena feeling?
- Oliver Yates: Fine.
- Alice Perrin: You wanna talk about it?
- Oliver Yates: Talk about what?
- Alice Perrin: Jesus, what do you think?
- Oliver Yates: Irena's gonna be all right.
- Alice Perrin: I don't even ca-- Irena's not the one I'm worried about. Her type will always be all right.
- Oliver Yates: Her type? What the hell's that mean?
- Alice Perrin: Look, I'm not blind, Oliver. I've seen you obsessed before. Not like this. I even thought I'd seen you in love before. I guess that was just my vanity.
- Oliver Yates: Let's talk about something else. Okay.
- Alice Perrin: Okay, all right.
- Oliver Yates: I know what I'm doing.'
- Bill Searle: Oliver, you aren't gonna believe this. What it is, see-- It's a, uh-- It's a goddamn black leopard is what it is. Don't ask me where it came from, 'cause we don't know. I guess it mauled a hooker last night. But she's all right. We've got it trapped in a room upstairs. Here, look at this.
- [they look at a security camera]
- Bill Searle: Candid camera.
- Alice Perrin: Let's hear it for voyeurism.
- Massage Parlor Manager: Strictly security.
- Oliver Yates: Sure. Where'd he go?
- Massage Parlor Manager: Back under the bed.
- Massage Parlor Manager: Must have scared the shit out of the john who was here last night. Guy split stark naked. In this neighborhood, who'd notice
- Alice Perrin: How'd he get in there anyway?
- Bill Searle: I don't know. Fire escape?
- Massage Parlor Manager: There's no fire escape, and the windows got bars on 'em.
- Oliver Yates: Back door?
- Massage Parlor Manager: Locked.
- Joe Creigh: He must've come in the front.
- Massage Parlor Manager: I think I would've noticed.
- Oliver Yates: Wait, whoa. Look there.
- Joe Creigh: Holy shit!
- [the leopard comes out from under the bed]
- Alice Perrin: He's enormous.
- Bill Searle: 125, 130 pounds.
- Oliver Yates: More like 150. He's big, all right. Real big. All right. Let's go with the ketamine straight, 2,000 milligrams. Let's knock him down quick and get him in the squeeze cage.
- Joe Creigh: Yeah, okay.
- Oliver Yates: Can you get to that window from the outside?
- Massage Parlor Manager: Sure.
- Oliver Yates: All right. Let's go.
