"But to assume they are stupid is an act of profound stupidity. They are not."

Oh I don't think Scott is terribly stupid he just has a very distorted view of his own abilities/characteristics in relation to others. I agree detectives see this all the time and they were likely pushing his buttons (big time). For instance, he may have planned to stay away from Amber for awhile but with the police attacking/questioning him he had to have some psychological comfort.

I'd like to know just what is on the tapes of the phone conversations he had with Amber.
