Dillman: The real question is why Jeffords had glitter on him at all. Fortunately, I have the answer. I deduced that he has three young daughters, twins and a toddler.
Jake: Big deal. You saw the picture on his desk.
Dillman: I did, and judging by the maple trees in the background of that picture, it was taken last fall. Probably mid October. The twins are smiling, each revealing a missing tooth. The twin on the right, let's call her "Twin A."
Sergeant Jeffords: That's Cagney.
Dillman: Is that relevant?
Sergeant Jeffords: It's her name.
Dillman: So no. Twin A is missing an upper right incisor while Twin B is missing a lower left incisor suggesting that they were seven when the photo was taken, which would put them in second grade. Spring semester of second grade is when the Brooklyn schools do their solar system unit, a highlight of which is constructing a mobile of the planets. My hypothesis is that Twin A and Twin B requested Daddy's help making Mars sparkle, hence the red glitter.
Sergeant Jeffords: Damn, yeah, that's exactly right.
Jake: Just seems like a very complicated way of saying Terry has kids.
Dillman: Thank you.
Jake: What?
