Conversations with Hunter the Investigator

F: The term cognitive dissonance is used to describe the feelings of discomfort that result when your beliefs run counter to your behaviors and/or new information that is presented to you.

H: What beliefs did I counter?

F: That they (Humans) aren't smarter than you are just because they live in houses with indoor plumbing, use toilet paper and don't (can't) lick their genitals in public.

H: Sorry about that, what do you think I should do, get a job?

F: Where do you want to work?

H: The Sheriff's department, I bet I could solve some crimes.

F: Well I will try but I wanted to work there myself and they wouldn't hire me. [2]

H: What did they say?

F: They want to know why I parked three houses away when I brought you home.

H: Did you tell them you did the same thing with your girlfriend, asking her to find which house you lived in, the first time you brought her to your house?

F: Yes, and now they are questioning if you were using scent when you found my cousins house.

H: I assume you told them I had never been to Hidden Hills, so how could I be familiar with anything let alone the terrain. I found the location in your brain.

H: Ok let's go to the Topanga Mall and find a stranger and get them to let us follow them to a location several blocks away from their house.

H: What did they say?
