bpete is fleeing. He doesn't want to respond to this. How can he when they're three different men?


And he is subtly trying to switch it to "cabinet" on the dark object. 


But, think about how illogical it is. A cabinet is a piece of furniture whose purpose is to store things. This was an interrogation room, so what would a cabinet be doing in it? What things had to be stored in an interrogation room? Not weapons, right? Not china, right? Not knick-knacks, right? 

I have watched a lot of episodes of Law and Order and have seen a lot of interrogations, but I have never seen a cabinet in an interrogation room. I have seen a table and chairs in there and that's it; nothing else.  

A cabinet being a piece of furniture is complex and multi-dimensional and uniquely shaped and finished and refined. What we are seeing here is a pure long and narrow rectangle. That's it! Nothing else. No other features. No other distinguishing characteristics. The only sense we are getting is a long dark narrow rectangle, and furniture almost always has more refinement than that. The only object that corresponds to what we see here is a door. At least, a door comes closest to corresponding to it. A door is the most logical place for the mind to go. 

Could it be the door to a cabinet? But a cabinet has a lot of depth, and we are getting no sense here of a lot of depth. 




You see Oswald; you see that he is against the wall. How much depth are you perceiving in the object? Look at the top, at the margin between the object and the wall. Is there much depth there?

But, it's extremely tall for a cabinet, which means that it could store a lot of stuff. But what could they possibly want or need to store in an interrogation room? 

And look how small the room is:




Remember that the whole Squad room seemed small and cramped, so that little room in the corner had to be very small- more like a closet. But, the first interrogation consisted of Fritz and Oswald and Hosty and Bookout and perhaps others. That's a lot of people for a small, windowless room. Do you really think they did it in there? Or was this just for show? Imagine if they were all in there with the door closed. It would have been hard to breathe, and talk about claustrophobia. 

Look at the map again. Notice that Captain Fritz had a big comfortable office just a few feet away. Wouldn't he have more likely have done the interview in there, and if not for Oswald's sake, then for the sake of Hosty, Bookout, and himself? 

But when you think about how small that interview room was, and again, even the whole squad room was small: why would they waste space by putting a cabinet in there when there was nothing that had to be stored there? All they needed in there was chairs and maybe a table. There was no need for a cabinet. 



That looks to be door. It may be a totally bogus picture, but even then, I think what they were aiming for with their bogus picture was a door. 

And why stick Oswald alone in an interrogation room? This was 2:02 PM, and the interrogation was not going to start until 3:15. We know that from the record. So, was this just a photo op? A staged event? Just more story-telling for their propaganda movie? I'm afraid so.
