## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Fog hangs over city streets, autumn leaves stick to wet pavement, a child's jump rope lies tangled near a fire hydrant.  
A detective traces letters in dust on a murdered man's desk while a profiler sketches grim patterns on a chalkboard.  
Like a grindhouse Se7en rerun at 3 a.m., best viewed with the lights on.
