Will
repairing a motorboat engine
|
From
Red Dragon Chapter 36
“Graham had been a poor child, following
his father from the boatyards in Biloxi and Greenville to the lake boats on
Erie.”
|
00:45-01:40
|
Will
experiencing audio hallucinations
|
O.K.,
things are getting very serious now, Will isn’t just a troubled detective,
and there is something very seriously wrong with him. He needs help other
than Hannibal, hopefully Alana will intervene.

05:30-05:45
|
Franklin:
“I... Googled "psychopaths", went down the checklist, and I was a
little surprised to see how many boxes I had checked.”
|
The
checklist may have been Hervey M. Cleckley’s 16 factor checklist of psychopathy
symptoms. Cleckley suggested that a psychopath can wear a "mask of
sanity" to conceal their disorder, which we are seeing a lot in this
episode.
The
list may also have been one of Robert D. Hare’s checklists (which build on Cleckley’s
work), such as the Hare Psychopathy Checklist - Revised (PCL-R), or the the
Psychopathy Checklist: Screening Version (PCL:SV), or the P-Scan.

07:00-07:10
|
Jack:
“The victim is Douglas Wilson, a member of the Baltimore Metropolitan
Orchestra's
brass section”
|
Bryan
Fuller tweets: “DOUGLAS WILSON are the
first and middle names of a childhood friend who played the trombone.
#DISTURBINGSHOUTOUTS”
“Douglas”
and “Wilson” are also the surnames of two experts on serial killings;
American FBI criminal profiler John Douglas and British criminologist David
Wilson.

13:00-13:50
|
Hannibal:
“Among the first musical instruments were flutes carved from human bone.”
|
The
oldest known flute bone is the Divje
Babe Flute which is about 43,000 years old and made from a cave bear
femur. The Hohle Fels Flute is
35,000 years old and is made from a vulture's wing bone.
Writer
Wilson Harris in his preface to “The Guyana Quartet” states that the Carib
people, after whom the Caribbean was named, made flutes from their enemies’
bones in times of war from about the thirteenth to the sixteenth century.
|
16:30-17:10
|
Hannibal:
“You can't impose traditional composition on an instrument that's inherently
free form.”
Tobias:
“What instrument would that be?”
Hannibal:
“The Theremin.”
:
Hannibal:
“My harpsichord needs new strings.”
|
From
Hannibal Chapter 54
“At Sotheby's in New York, he purchased two
excellent musical instruments, rare finds both of them. The first was a late
eighteenth-century Flemish harpsichord nearly identical to the Smithsonian's
1745 Dulkin, with an upper manual to accommodate Bach - the instrument was a
worthy successor to the gravicembalo he had in Florence. His other purchase
was an early electronic instrument, a theremin, built in the 1930s by
Professor Theremin himself. The theremin had long fascinated Dr. Lecter. He
had built one as a child. It is played with gestures of the empty hands in an
electronic field. By gesture you evoke its voice.”
|
19:00-19:05
|
Will:
“You avoided being in a room alone with me essentially since I met you. You
were smooth about it.”
|
From
Red Dragon Chapter 17 “One thing I’ve noticed – I’m curious about
this: you’re never alone in a room with Graham, are you? You’re smooth about
it, but you’re never one-on-one with him. Why’s that? Do you think he’s
psychic, is that it?”

26:30
|
Hannibal makes dessert for Will
|
Bryan Fuller tweeted that the topping was "PEOPLE SAUCE!" -- gulp!
|
36:20
|
Tobias
spinning his catgut wire at Hannibal
|
Bryan Fuller tweeted: “We talked a lot about John Lithgow and #BLOWOUT when referring to
#TOBIASBUDGE's weapon of choice.”
Blow Out is a 1981 Brian De Palma thriller film,
starring John Travolta, Nancy Allen and John Lithgow. Lithgow uses wire
garrotte to kill people in it.
|
38:30-39:00
|
Hannibal
plays Bach on his harpsichord
|
From
The Silence of the Lambs Chapter 36: “Dr. Lecter toyed with his food while he
wrote and drew and doodled on his pad with a felt-tipped pen. He flipped over
the cassette in the tape player chained to the table leg and punched the play
button. Glenn Gould playing Bach's Goldberg Variations on the piano. The
music, beautiful beyond plight and time, filled the bright cage and the room
where the warders sat.”
