This is a murder of a woman named Anne Livley. You got this from containment? Yes. This is...
Something wrong with the clip?
Quote
Danny Witwer:
[Using Anderton's projector and puts a clear recorded device into it]
This is a murder of a woman named Anne Livley.
Lamar Burgess:
You got this from containment?
Danny Witwer:
Yes. This is from the twins, Arthur and Dashiell. Agatha's datastream is missing.
[Takes out the clear device and gets out another clear device from his suit pocket]
Danny Witwer:
This is from the Cyber Parlor.
[Puts that clear device into Anderton's projector]
Danny Witwer:
Anderton dowloaded this directly from Agatha, and Rufus Riley recorded it.
Lamar Burgess:
It's the same prevision.
Danny Witwer:
Not quite.
[Gets up and goes to the video on the wall]
Danny Witwer:
Watch the wave action across the water. Watch the ripples. Moving
[Moves his pinky]
Danny Witwer:
*away* from shore.
[Goes over to the projector and changes recorded devices]
Danny Witwer:
This is from containment what Art and Dash saw.
[Goes back to the wall]
Danny Witwer:
The wind has changed. The ripples are moving the other way.
[Moves his pinky to the direction of the ripples]
Danny Witwer:
This murder is taking place at 2 different times. The sentry has said that Anderton was actually watching this in containment right before he was tagged.
Lamar Burgess:
Yes, yes. He came to me and told me about the missing prevision. He was afraid that you might find it.
Danny Witwer:
He was right. I *did* find it. But one question remains: Why would somebody want this erased from the data file?
Lamar Burgess:
Danny. Tell me. What are you thinking?
Danny Witwer:
I'm thinking somebody got away with murder.
Lamar Burgess:
I don't understand.
Danny Witwer:
Well, Jad told me that sometimes the Pre-Cogs see the same murder more than once.
Lamar Burgess:
It's called an "echo".
Danny Witwer:
Jad calls it "Pre-Cog Deja Vu".
Lamar Burgess:
Yes. The Pre-Cog technician finds these echoes and disregard them.
Danny Witwer:
[laughs slightly]
Yes, but um... what if the technician only *thought* that he was looking at an echo? What if he was really looking at was a completely different murder altogether?
Lamar Burgess:
Uh, I don't understand.
Danny Witwer:
All you have to do is hire someone to kill Anne Livley for you, someone like a drifter, a neuroin addict, somebody with nothing to lose. Pre-Crime stops the murder from taking place, Halos the killer, takes him away but then, right then someone else that has viewed the pre-vision. Dresses in the same clothes, commits the murder in *exactly* the same way. Technician takes a look, *thinks* he's looking at an echo, erases it.
[Brief pause]
Danny Witwer:
Of course, this would have to be somebody with access to the previsions in the first place. Someone *fairly* high-up...
Lamar Burgess:
[Shushes Witwer]
You know what I hear Danny? Nothing. No footsteps up the stairs, no jet out of the window, no clickeyty-click of the little spiders. Do you know why I can't hear those things Danny? Because right now, the Pre-Cogs can't see a thing.
[Shoots Danny in the chest as he slowley crumples to the floor, Burgess than comes over to Danny and shoots him in the head]
