The Silence of the Lambs Scene 19 Summary

  • In Belvedere, Ohio, Clarice speaks to Mr. Bimmel, Frederika's father.
  • He lets her into Frederika's bedroom, which is exactly as she left it.
  • Clarice finds some photos hidden in Frederika's music box, photos of her posing, embarrassed, in her underwear.
  • Next, Clarice checks the closet and finds something interesting—a dress with diamond shapes in it.
  • Clarice realizes that Buffalo Bill is making a woman suit out of real women. Like Girl Scout cookies made from real Girl Scouts.
  • She calls Crawford, and he's like, yeah, whatever, they already found Buffalo Bill. His name is Jamie Gumb. He's outside of Chicago, and he imported those creepy moths.
  • Crawford has a pic of the guy…and it's not the Buffalo Bill we've seen.
