Suspects come and go and Tony is drawn deeper into this foreign world of silence and gestures. As the bodycount rises Tony and Linda become more dependant on each other- soon breaching professional boundaries. Walter, who has a crush on Linda, is angered and jeopardizes his own safety by running out to catch the murderer himself to impress her. Tony goes off after him. As a mid-Atlantic storm descends, the school buckles down and the showdown between killer and cop takes place. A chase through the rainy colonial campus grounds and a darkened rooftop fight finally reveal the perpetrator: Walter. He's not deaf. He's been killing for sport- and where better to kill than in an environment where no one can hear you call out? "They're like fish in a barrel, here..." Walter's final words as he slips from Tony's grasp and off the side of a building- screaming as he falls.
