332 00:15:58,340 --> 00:16:02,360 No, I guess I don't. 333 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,000 But there must be another explanation. 334 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:08,400 The alternative would be to believe that someone is framing you. 335 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:12,280 Do you believe that someone drugged you several times or there'd be days you couldn't account 336 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:13,280 for? 337 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,320 That someone forged the papers of John Blake and planted them on you? 338 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:20,040 Can you believe that someone planned to commit this murder months ago, rented an apartment 339 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,600 in the name of John Blake, filled it with clothing in your size, put your photograph 340 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:24,600 in the apartment?
