pet psycho is better at murder than gathering
intelligence.
MULLER
He could not break her? You could not train her.
BARNEY
But I broke her.
MULLER
No, she bounced back quickly enough. This cat is
stronger than most. Let her die...

JULIE
Put a lid on it, necrophile.

Yes, Doctor Long.
DOC LONG
Let me get that paperwork.
PANEL 5
Doc Long leaves the white room. Julie winces, but hugs Charlie

SVEN
What brings you this far out?
PANEL 3
CHARLIE TWOCLOUDS
