Without a Trace, Season 1

Without a Trace (2002-2009) is a television show about the Missing Persons Squad of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Jack:
You know, I've been giving something a lot of thought. It's occurred to me that…in some ways, I envy you.

Graham Spaulding:
You envy me?

Jack:
Yes. The power…that you have with those boys-what that must feel like.

Graham Spaulding:
What boys?

Jack:
Andy, Eric Lipinski, Robert Griffith. I know there have been others.

Graham Spaulding:
There have been many.

Jack:
Do me a favor, Graham. Tell me what it's like…the moment that you take them out. Tell me. You can see the terror in their eyes, right? You can feel their hearts racing. You can feel the cold sweat under your hands just before you stick the needle in. It must be such a rush. Martin, put the CD in.

[Martin plays the CD; Moby's "One of These Mornings" begins playing.]

Jack:
Andy made this CD for Phoebe. He wanted her to think about him when he wasn't there. Is that what you wanted? Is that why you stole it? You wanted to think about him. Is it what you two listened to when you were together?

Graham Spaulding:
No.

Jack:
No, that's right, that's right. That's right, you never got a chance. You never got a chance to go back to him because he's still out there. He's waiting. It must be hard. It must be hard knowing that he's out there…waiting. The touch of his skin, the feel of him under you. I understand you, Graham, I do. I've been to that school. I've seen those beautiful boys. Their beautiful bodies…to hold all that innocence in your arms…to take…the power. It must be really frustrating knowing that Andy is out there waiting for you…waiting…waiting…waiting and you can't get back to him. You can't be with him one last time. But I tell you what I'm going to do. I'm going to give you fifteen minutes with him, if you tell me where he is.

Graham Spaulding:
You'd do that?

Jack:
I'll give you fifteen minutes with him…alone. You can do whatever you want.

Graham Spaulding:
Fifteen minutes.

Jack:
Whatever you want.
