LT. IRIS LOCKE: "An alias is a variable wearing a coat. Strip the coat with arithmetic and see who shivers."
THE MISSING VALUES DOCKET // EPISODE 1 // THE FIRST ALIAS
Case file one. A signature authorizes payments all over the county: Mr. Gray. There is no Mr. Gray. There is a ledger with positive and negative entries, and a man hiding in the difference.
THE CASE Shell officer Percy Vail signs as Mr. Gray on accounts that swing positive and negative by the same amounts, two days apart. Solve the swings and the coat comes off.
