"Mmmm, Hey Martin so glad you finally called me. Why the fuck did you wait three days before calling me after my date, that’s stupid."
"I’m sorry, is this Ms. Flynn? My name is not Martin my name is Krystal."
"I guess technically I’m Ms. Flynn, but Ms. Flynn was my mom, call me Laurie."
"Ah yes, I have the right person. Your mother’s name was Leslie, right?"
"Yes, who are you and how did you get my number? Hold on. I’m getting another call, great, fucking Martin, fuck him. I’m giving you my attention. He ignored me for three days I don’t play that. You have 36 hours to call me."
"Umm, ok. You used to work for the police department with your mother. Your Commissioner gave us this case and told me that because of your mother’s death it qualify’s for our caseload. I’m your agent and investigator to take down "The Organization" as you call it. He told me you need help that you can’t get without professional help. And he gave me copies of everything you discovered, I’m impressed, Laurie. There’s one more thing by the way that came to us that you don’t know about. The fake ID of Ignacio-"
"Does that mean that he burned his ID somehow? Maybe he made a mistake!"
"That’s why I’m calling, I wanted to talk to you and pick your brain and find the direction I wanted to lead us in. We have a small team, I’m the one you will meet with and talk to personally from time to time. By the way, my name is Krystal."
"Absolutely, when, where? Let’s go lets go!"
"Laurie, Laurie, breathe, breathe honey, breathe."
"No. No. You don’t tell me what to do." I sprint outside and turn on the car and start going down the road.
"Laurie, please turn off the car. I’m not even in the state yet. I’m calling you from Texas."
I pull over the car into a parking lot, "I should have figured as much, that’s okay I forgot one of my shoes anyways and I don’t have my face on."
"I love your enthusiasm, Laurie. You seem to have a fire inside you that is engulfed in passion. The night or day we meet will hurt like you have never seen before that fire will rage out of control as we talk about everything again."
"When would you like to meet?"
"I can be there as soon as June 16th, my day job is a teacher and we have a week of meetings after school is over."
"That is perfect I have some time to fish and enjoy my summer before going back to wanting to kill that fucker."
"Oh Laurie, there’s a hexadecimal coded message for you that was sent with the fake ID of your unsub makes me think he meant for the message to you. He sent it to the police station you used to work at."
"Well what are you waiting for, I’m all ears."
"I want you to not kill the messenger here, I have been warned of your anger. I’ll be bringing the faxed copy with me and a clean copy so you can see if I missed anything the clean copy will be yours to keep."
"Can you email it to me real quick, I’m on a blackberry so I can see emails sent to me."
"Oh that’s so cool I heard of those, I want one. Yeah, gimme a second."
I see it pop on screen after I give her my email.

I say to her, "that asshole actually took the time to write this out by hand? What the fuck is wrong with him? What does all this mean?"
"Well the asshole as you call him, actually likes you a lot, I’m going to have my friend at work read what he said quite literally and he will also translate it for you when he’s done. His name is Jesus Garcia."
"Hello Laurie, I’m Jesus Soccoro Mendez-Hernandez Garcia. I was laughing so hard when I read it you’ll see why in a bit.
Hola Laurie,
Esta es tu persona favorita en el mundo. Quiero que sepas que la estructura de lo que estás estudiando ha sido completamente reimaginada y reestructurada para que cualquier cosa que encontrases sea nula y sin valor.Decidí retirarme así que en unos pocos años puedo parecerle como una persona normal. Creo que eres hermosa por dentro y por fuera. Y quiero sacarte algún día, y tú también quieres sacarme, pero con un rifle de francotirador.Es como si ya estamos casados, digo que te amo, me golpeas con un ladrillo, será genial.Bueno, tengo un avión para coger así que en la caja de correo esto va. Te deseo lo mejor con todo, excepto las relaciones con chicos, tengo la intención de salir con usted. Tal vez algún día me llamarás papá. ;)Hasta otra vez Laurie, te deseo lo mejor de la salud y los tiempos.
Con Amor, "Tu Persona Favorita En El Mundo"
"I understood bits and pieces but you spoke too fast for me to get it, what’s that in English?"
"Hello Laurie,
This is your favorite person in the world. I want you to know that the structure of what you are studying has been completely reimagined and restructured so anything you did find is null and void.
I decided to retire so in a few years I can appear to you as just a normal person. I think you are beautiful inside and out. And I want to take you out someday, and you want to take me out as well but with a sniper rifle.
It’s like we’re already married, I say I love you, you hit me with a brick, it will be great. A truely functional and happy marriage.
Well, I have a plane to catch so in the mailbox this goes. I wish you the best with everything except relationships with guys, I intend to date you. Maybe someday you’ll call me daddy. ;)
Until another time Laurie, I wish you the best of health and times.
With Love, "Your Favorite Person In The World"
"Jesus, I’m going to politely request that you put Krystal back on."
"I’m going, have a great day."
"Are you okay Laurie?"
"I am going to fucking murder him! He’s right I do want to hit him with a brick, I will never date him, I swear if I ever meet him I will hit him with a brick. MOTHER FUCKER! And I also want to shoot him with my rifle. I’ll even make a sport out of it give him a 30-minute head start and I’ll use a bow instead make him suffer!"
"Laurie, I want you to go fishing until I get there, not hunting please don’t go shooting things."
"Fine, fine. I’m in front of a Starbucks right now, should we meet there?"
"Too public of a place, we’ll be discussing crime and murder. How about the library?"
"Yes, we can do that."
"Does 11 am work with you?"
"Yes, that sounds early but not too early."
