Hello... Gordon.

Hello, Doc.
Simon?
You know who I am.
Billy has told me a lot about you.
Billy is a smart boy.
What happened on Christmas night in Lowell?
Use your imagination.
I'd rather you tell me, Simon.
Peter was naughty, Doc.
What did Peter do?
He shouldn't have done it... Doc.
Tell me, Simon.
He scared Mary, Doc. He crept up behind her in the dark and he scared her. Mary fell down, Doc. She fell on her doll. It cut her up, Doc. It cut her up real bad. She needed someone to help her. So I... introduced myself. And I told her to cut up Peter, Doc. To cut him up real bad. Good thing his knife was brand new. Real sharp. And then just so her mommy and daddy wouldn't get mad, I told her... to cut them up, too. There was a lot of blood, Doc. So much blood. But Mary wanted to do it, so she did it.
Why did you do it, Simon?
Because Mary let me, Doc. They always do. They always do. [laughs]
Billy, where does the Princess live?
In the tongue.
Why the tongue?
Because she's always talking, sir.
And where do you live, Billy?
I live in the eyes - you know that.
Remind me, though. Why the eyes?
Because... I see everything, sir.
And where does Simon live, Billy? Where does Simon live?
And where do you live, Simon?
I live in the weak and the wounded... Doc.
