Yeah. I didn't notice any of the others eyeing up low-hanging decorative elements, so I thought you'd be the best to mention it to.

[transponders]

I know it's important to investigate the...main parts of the bodies.

But having any piece of her hanging around rotting makes me sick. We're looking for the head. You can get it back on?

[rehandle]

I can. Enough to make her more comfortable. [ Look more comfortable. Look whole. ] So long as everyone's gentle with her after.

I'm sorry she was taken.

[transponders]

They will be. They don't want to fuck with me about this.

Thank you.

If you haven't already, look for signs of strangulation.

[ He'll do it himself when he's reattaching heads. But the sooner they know, the better. ]

[transponders]

Yeah. She was strangled. And her head was torn off, not chopped. It'll be a rough job getting it back on.
