This page of the medical examiner’s report represents to Virgil what he believed were his failings as a detective. It is a symbol to himself that he wasn’t the hero people thought he was. When he got ready for his ceremony to become a detective, he put this page in the breast pocket of his coat. Instead of going to the ceremony, however, Virgil drove his car over the edge of a cliff, killing himself.
