Billiards is such a fascinating game,
don't you think?
You can't simply strike the ball you're
aiming for. You have to be indirect,
but precise, to land it in the pocket...

I can understand how you feel. But...
it shares many similarities with the
hypothetical "perfect crime."

Precisely. And the most interesting part
is that it has so many parallels to a
theoretical "perfect crime."

You eliminate your target without ever
directly connecting yourself to it. I don't
suppose that rings any bells?

That's right. Even the cases of criminals'
hearts being changed, too.
Everything happening around us, every
little inconsequential event, may simply
be one ball striking another.

I'm sure I don't have to draw you a
picture. The psychotic breakdown cases—
even the criminals' changes of heart.

...But there's no guarantee that the ball
can be precisely controlled.
And despite the player's best intentions,
the ball may strike many unrelated
obstacles in its path.
