Numb3rs

Last night I was watching CSI:Miami, and I saw a promo for Numb3rs, in which "FBI agent Don Eppes recruits his younger brother, Charlie, a mathematical genius and college professor, to help solve some of Don's toughest cases."

My first thought: Oh my fucking god.

Second thought: Maybe now I can develop some empathy for my lawyer cousin and her hatred of Judge Judy.

Third thought: Should I quit my job and move to L.A. to write for television?

Int. office - night

DON is pacing back and forth. CHARLIE is scribbling madly on his paper.

Charlie

I've got it! Your shooter was a woman!


Don

What? How can you tell?


Charlie

It's a simple consequence of the Riemann Mapping Theorem!
