Since Billy agrees to help Jazz find the Impressionist, Jazz starts by telling Billy everything he knows about him, how the Impressionist is clearly copying Billy’s crimes. After listening to Jazz carefully, Billy tells Jazz he is not sure what he can do to help find the Impressionist. Jazz explains: “‘You know. You have admirers out there.’ He thought of the FREE BILLY DENT conspiracy theorists outside of Wammaket’s walls. ‘Sociopath groupies. Junkies for this stuff’” (314). Billy says, no, he believes that the Impressionist is acting on his own accord. His advice to Jazz to catch him is to just wait: “There’s your answer, Jasper. You don’t gotta catch this guy. Just wait. He’ll trip on his own feet at some point, and then you got him” (315). Jazz tells Billy that he needs to catch the Impressionist because he does not want to see any more innocent people die, but Billy does not believe that. He does not see Jazz saving people as a selfless act, saying: “You don’t care about savin’ his prospects. You care about yourself. About makin’ sure no one thinks you were involved. About provin’ you can be regular citizen like all the others.
