Allusions
ADD ALLUSIONS-
Nathan: It's just the text for a graphic novel. Morgan: About killing prostitutes? Nathan: Jack the Ripper, it's a famous case. Nathan is making an understatement. In 1888, five prostitutes were murdered and mutilated in London's Whitechapel district. The killer became known as Jack the Ripper because that was how he signed some taunting letters he sent to the police. Historians have come up with many theories about the crimes and named several suspects, but the identity of the Ripper is still unknown. This is one of the most notorious unsolved crimes in history.
-
Reid: This is the way the world ends. The T.S. Eliot quotes in this episode are from his 1925 poem, "The Hollow Men," verse V.
