Kiss the Girls

Question: When Cross leaves the station when the Captain is talking to the press, Ruskin's partner drives past and stares at him. Why? It makes Cross lower his glasses and take a moment in thought. There must be a reason for this, but I can't work it out.

Answer: The way I look at it is that 1) it was a classic misdirection and 2) this made Alex realise who the real killer was. Because Alex is incredibly intuitive and has had an extensive career of deduction. It is possible that I may have missed something too.

Plot hole: In the scene where Ashley Judd runs away from her attacker and falls into her aquarium he has moved to the bottom of the stairs - there is no way he would have been able to move that full fish tank. It looked to be about a 30 gallon tank - it would weigh about 400 pounds with the stand and even if he slid it with some superhuman strength, glass tanks are notorious for shattering when you move them full. Plus it would've made enough noise to wake the dead - no way she wouldn't have heard it.

Alex Cross: I'm a forensic psychologist. It's a fancy way of saying I'm a guy who walks into a room like that and determines the hows and whys.
