Paul:What are you watching?

Della:I'm watching a really good show about cold cases.

They take unsolved crimes from decades ago and reconstruct them,trying to solve them once and for all.

Paul:But after all this time, isn't the trail cold?

How do they solve the crimes with no new leads?

Della:They go over the witness testimony and use scientific methods that didn't exist many years ago.

Paul:Isn't there a statute of limitations for most crimes?

Della:Yes, but not for murder.

Paul:I really doubt a TV show can solve crimes that the police couldn't crack.

Are any crimes really ever solved on the show?

Della:Yes, of course.

Paul:How? Through crack investigative methods or a keen eye for detail?

Della:Deathbed confessions.
