Inspector William Armstrong: We're playing catch-up, Jack. I'd like to set up a meeting with your survivor, Michael Mageau.
Sgt. Jack Mulanax: I can't. He skipped town.
Inspector William Armstrong: The only guy who's seen Zodiac without a mask is missing?
Sgt. Jack Mulanax: When he was still in the hospital,

we could show him lineups all day long. As soon as he got out, he split.
Inspector William Armstrong: Really? Why?
Sgt. Jack Mulanax: I don't think he wanted to have anything to do with this.
Inspector William Armstrong: Can you send us everything that you have?
Sgt. Jack Mulanax: Well, the road goes

both ways. Now, we need that print you lifted from the cab, and we should have been in on the handwriting.
Inspector William Armstrong: I apologize. Things have been moving fast. Who should I talk to in Napa so we can coordinate?
Sgt. Jack Mulanax: Talk to Ken Narlow.

Ken Narlow: We really should have been in on the handwriting.
Inspector William Armstrong: I apologize. You know, things have been moving fast. Listen we're gonna need your scene photos.
Ken Narlow: Can't help you.
Inspector William Armstrong: Ken, I don't want to get into a jurisdiciontal thing here.

Ken Narlow: No, no, no, no, no. We didn't have a crime scene. The ranger that found the kids literally swept everything into a picnic blanket. All we have are the Wing Walker prints.
Inspector William Armstrong: The what?
Ken Narlow: Boot prints to and from the crime scene were made by size 10 1/2 Wing Walkers, military-style boots

sold only at military PXs designed to walk on the wings of planes.
Inspector William Armstrong: And you can't buy at a PX without a military ID, so our suspect could be military. Did you guys narrow your list off of this?
Ken Narlow: Yeah.
Inspector William Armstrong: Did Vallejo?
Ken Narlow: I don't

know. I don't work in Vallejo. I work here.

Inspector William Armstrong: I'm gonna need photos of those boot prints.
Ken Narlow: Sure, if you send me the handwriting.
Inspector William Armstrong: I thought Questioned Documents already did.
Ken Narlow: Nope. Vallejo's got 'em, not us.
Inspector William Armstrong: All right. I'll

have Questioned Documents... forget it. I'll telefax it to you.
Ken Narlow: We don't have telefax yet.
Inspector William Armstrong: Okay, I'll put it in the mail.
Ken Narlow: We'll mail ours, too. And call Mulanax in Vallejo. Maybe he can get you a mimeo.
