Choices and Consequences in Law Enforcement
Longlegs:
Oh there she is, the almost birthday girl! Oh, it's funny. The day you decided to go into law enforcement you were twenty. We had such a big laugh about it. Though it was only me who laughed, not she.
Lee Harker:
Who's the she that you're talking about?
Longlegs:
The seventh she to be given the same choice they've all been given. Crimson, or clover. Accept the gift and destroy, destroy yourself and yourselves. Or keep it. And bow down. Bow all the way down. And get right down to the dirty, dirty work. Work that gets dirty as it cleans. Like a mop. Like a rag.
Lee Harker:
You don't work alone, do you? Somebody's been helping you. An accomplice.
Longlegs:
Knock knock! On the farmhouse door. A nice lady with a Bible and a congratulations! You have been selected! You may now collect your gift from the church. It says right here, right here on the orders, the orders from the man downstairs. The Camera family farmhouse will be so bright and white you can't miss it!
Lee Harker:
You're referring to Carrie-Anne Camera? What did you say to her at the mental institution?
Longlegs:
Oh, but Lee, your house was even whiter when I came to visit.
Lee Harker:
January 13th 1974, right?
Longlegs:
And then house number 8 was so white, whiter than a fish's throat, whiter than tits, I knew then that the work we were doing was immaculate.
Lee Harker:
But your work's over. It's done. And you're gonna be in here for the rest of your life.
Longlegs:
Yes... I am done. But I won't only be in here. I'll be a little bit of everywhere. Waiting in the wings. In the father's wings.
Lee Harker:
Who's been helping you?
Longlegs:
Well... I'll let you get started now.
Lee Harker:
Who is the man downstairs?
Longlegs:
Why don't you ask your mommy?
Lee Harker:
My mother doesn't know anything.
Longlegs:
Hail Satan.

911 Agent:
Sir, who's not your daughter?
Curtis Horn:
I gotta be quiet. I gotta be quiet.
911 Agent:
Sir, where are you?
Curtis Horn:
When she's sleeping... When she's sleeping, it's the best time to do it.
911 Agent:
Do what?
Curtis Horn:
When her eyes are closed.
911 Agent:
Sir, can you stay on the line with me?
