(at around 51 mins) During this movie, in a televised announcement by Senator Ruth Martin (Diane Baker), Martin pleads for her daughter's life, and repeatedly mentions her name, Catherine. The FBI agents and trainees who are watching the announcement remark that her repeated mentioning of Catherine's name is "smart", with Clarice (Jodie Foster) adding that the Senator's repeated use of her daughter's name could influence her kidnapper to see her daughter as a person, and not as a thing or object. This notion is in direct (and possibly deliberate) contrast with the way in which Buffalo Bill (Ted Levine) addresses Catherine (Brooke Smith) during another scene by saying lines such as: "It rubs the lotion on its skin. It does this whenever it's told", and "It places the lotion in the basket".
