A police captain is quizzing three new trainees.

He shows a photograph of a man to the first trainee. "This is your suspect," he says. "How do you identify him?"

The trainee replies "Simple. He's only got one eye!"

"You idiot!" the captain scolds. "That's because you're looking at a picture from the side of his face! He moves onto the second trainee, showing him the same photo. "This is your suspect," he says. "How do you identify him?"

The trainee responds "That's an easy one! He's only got one ear!"

"You idiot!" the captain scolds. "I don't believe this. Can you really not tell when you're looking at the side of a man's face!?" He moves onto the third trainee, now very frustrated. "This is your suspect," he says. "How do you identify him?"

The third trainee is silent. After a moment of thought, he answers "He wears contact lenses."

The officer is taken aback. He excuses himself and checks the records they have on file. Sure enough, the man does wear contact lenses.

"That was amazing!" the captain tells the trainee. "How were you able to make such an astute observation?"

"It was obvious," says the trainee. "He can't wear glasses! He's only got one eye and one ear!"
