00:00You're my new helper.
00:01Yes, sir.
00:01Cut the sirs. I prefer Reacher.
00:03Understood, Reacher.
00:04Speak your mind, Sergeant.
00:05I'm realizing now that you've just learned that I've been assigned to you in the past five minutes.
00:09Why do you say that?
00:10If you'd known I was coming, there would be a second chair in here, but there's none.
00:13I don't like people hanging out in my office, so I got rid of the extra chair.
00:16But I found out about you three minutes ago.
00:18I promise you won't regret bringing me on.
00:20Look at this and tell me what you think while they get us coffee.
00:27No cream, no sugar, please.
00:29I have a theory about the case.
00:30Can you surmise what it is?
00:32Coercion.
00:33Why?
00:33Specialist Skorowski has no criminal record.
00:35Perpetrators usually don't commit their first crime in their 40s and not after they join the military.
00:39His civilian life is clean, his military life is decorated, he's made of his salary, no debt to speak of,
00:45has a family.
00:46You don't wait until you have stuff to lose and then decide to engage in risky behavior.
00:49There's a reason that over 70% of all crime is committed by people under 40.
00:53They don't have anything yet.
00:54He just doesn't fit the profile.
00:55Mike, bring in a chair for Sergeant Cole.
00:57Let's get to work.
