Memorable Quotes from Karel Roden
1 quotePhone Call from the Saarne Institute
Kate
Hello?
Dr. Varava
Is this Kate Coleman? Hello?
[small pause]
Kate
Yeah, this is she.
Dr. Varava
My name is Dr. Varava. I'm calling from the Saarne Institute. I've just seen the picture you e-mailed.
Kate
And do you recognize her?
Dr. Varava
Where is she right now? Is she someplace where she can hear you?
Kate
No, she's not with me. She's with my husband at home---
Dr. Varava
Call your husband right now, and tell him to get your family out of the house. Then call the police.
Kate
He won't listen to me. Why?
Dr. Varava
Then tell him the little girl in the picture, is not really a little girl. She is a grown woman.
Kate
What? What are you talking about? The picture I sent you is of our adopted daughter, and she's 9 years old.
Dr. Varava
No, she's not. She has a rare hormone disorder. It's called hypopituitarism, it causes proportional dwarfism. She only looks like a child. According to our records, Leena Klammer was born in 1976. She's 33 years old.
[checks on the records]
Kate
This can't be. This is a mistake.
Dr. Varava
I hope so, for your sake. Does she have the scars?
Kate Coleman
What? I don't know. What scars?
Dr. Varava
Leena was one of our most violent patients. When she was here, she was kept in a straitjacket to stop her from hurting our staff. She was constantly fighting to get out. It cut into her skin and left her with scars around her wrists and neck. There is no way you could not have seen them.
Kate
Why was she at your hospital?
Dr. Varava
She's dangerously ill, violent. She killed seven people that we know of.
Kate
Oh, my God. How could she fool us?
Dr. Varava
She has been passing herself off as a little girl for most of her life. She tricked a family here in Estonia into adopting her. When she couldn't seduce the father, she killed him and his whole family.
Kate
Then she burned the house down?
Dr. Varava
Yes. How did you know? She disappeared a year ago, and we lost track of her. If it's really Leena, you don't have much time.
