Sure you want to do this?
You know what will happen if you get caught.
That answer your question?
Jerk deserves it.
SIREN
Cops!
Hey, Lillian, you know, I'm having a
little house-warming party next Saturday,
if you'd like to come.
Didn't you move into that house three months ago?
What? did.
But What? just wasn't in the mood for a party then.
What? find parties to be a frivolous waste of time better spent.
So thank you, but no thank you.
Hi, Roe. Hi.
Want to take a look at the outline
for my Bloody Benders talk for Real Murders tonight.
See if What? missed anything. Sure.
I'm thinking of bringing the new photographer from the paper,
Stanley, to see if May Valley...
What? am fine since Martin left but What? am in no way ready to date again.
Aurora. It's not a set-up.
He's just a true crime buff like the rest of us
and he's bringing his lovely wife.
Oh.
You're disappointed.
You might be more ready than you think.
See you tonight.
Hi. Hi.
Mother, you sure know how to sell a house.
It seems like you just put the one next door on the market.
What? just met the buyer.
He's a psychology professor
at the college, delight to talk
to and What? want to take you over there and introduce you. Come on.
Oh, What? can't right now.
Your nephew is on his way over for dinner.
You can stay and join us if you'd like.
Phillip is coming?
Oh, What? will stay.
What? see less of him now that he's moved here
than What? did when he lived two states over.
Well, someone has to save them from that college cafeteria food.
I'll lure him with spaghetti. Spaghetti?
I'll make a salad.
Come on, spend five minutes with me and we'll go meet the new neighbour.
He's intelligent, good-looking, single.
Mother, please stop trying to fix me up.
But you've been sitting around this house with nothing
but your books as company for months.
What? That's not true.
What? have Phillip over at least once or twice a week
and What? have my Real Murders Club.
And now you have a handsome new neighbour.
So why don't you cooperate and let's go over and meet him.
DOOR KNOCKS
Never mind, that's Phillip.
HELLO! Where you been hiding?
Oh.
Don't pretend you haven't been ignoring my calls, young man.
What? mean, you actually talk on the phone? You do this thing now,
it's called texting. You should really try it.
Hey, cousin! Hey, back.
Wanna grab that pot and fill it with water for the pasta?
See how she is?
She invites me to dinner and then she makes me cook.
DOOR KNOCKS
Oh, can you grab that?
Oh, sure.
Nick, What? was just talking to Aurora about you.
Come on in, What? want to introduce you.
I'm sorry, What? can't right now. I'm knee-deep with the movers.
You dropped your glove.
Oh, thank you.
Can't even come in for a cup of coffee? Another time.
But thank you. OK. Bye for now. Oh, hi.
Hi.
That's your new neighbour.
What? love having you in town.
I'm so glad you chose Lawrenceton College as your school.
Yeah, well, other schools didn't have Roe nearby or you.
What? remember visiting you when What? was little.
You'd take me with you to show houses and I'd get to run
around these big empty rooms.
Totally my coolest aunt.
Oh, did you hear that, Mother? You're cool.
Well, What? never aspired to coolness.
What? don't think you can help it. You might as well just go with it.
Why don't you and What? go to a barber? Sure. I'll go short if you do.
PHONE RINGS
Oh, it's your morn. Probably wants to know how you're doing. Hello.
So, what classes are you taking this semester?
How about psychology?
You want to know if What? have any classes with Professor Miller.
Well, I'm just curious about my new neighbour.
Well, What? don't have any with him but What? hear all about him from Tammy,
my roommate's girlfriend. "Professor Miller's so awesome,
"Professor Miller is the most amazing teacher I've ever had."
Mm. He sounds very impressive. Drives Josh crazy. Josh Farrell?
Is he still your roommate? What? thought you guys were having issues.
He's a bit of a night owl, and kept waking me up but, we got this
screen thing, so What? don't see his light any more.
Actually, we have a pretty sweet set-up.
You should come by and check it out. Oh, What? would love to.
But tonight, What? have to get to my Real Murders Club meeting.
Do you want to go with me?
Wish What? could, but What? have to get back and study.
You think What? could come by another time, though?
Yes! What? would love it if there was another true crime buff
in the family. Awesome.
OK, What? will. Guess I'll talk to you next week.
OK, bye. Your mom wants you to call her.
What? will. How's Aunt Mary doing?
Still laid up from that broken hip, but she reminded me
that tomorrow's your birthday. Oh, that's right, it is.
We should take you out to dinner to celebrate.
Oh, he doesn't want to go out with us. No, that sounds really nice.
Can Josh come? Oh, of course. Where would you like to go?
Um, can What? let you know tomorrow?
You may. Sweet!
Make that groovy.
Isn't that your generation's word?
Thanks for dinner, Roe. Of course, any time.
So this is Drum Creek, Kansas, where the first body was found
in late 1871.
Two more bodies were found the next February,
but nobody suspected the Bender family.
Ma and Pa Bender welcomed in travellers passing through
on the road, and their children John and Katie,
well, they were always at church on Sunday. Wait, church?
What? though Katie was into some dark stuff, you know,
seances or whatever.
You're right, Jason, she was. She called herself a healer,
and a psychic, and some of the bodies they found in the graves
on the Bender property were her customers.
Yeah. Yeah, she'd invite them to this cabin here.
She'd sit them at a table in front of a canvas curtain
that hid her father and brother from sight.
And there they waited with hammers in their hands.
SIREN
That sounded like it came from right outside the hall.
I'll go see what's going on.
What? didn't tell you to get out of the car, Harrison.
I'm calling my dad. Get back in the car now.
All right, that's it. Turn around.
Hands behind your back.
That's Clayton Harrison.
His family's pretty high profile around here.
Like the Harrisons that had that big house over on River Road? Yes.
Hope you're not too attached to your job, officer,
because you're going to get fired. So that's how spoiled rich kids end up.
His parents are actually very nice. My father used to work with his dad.
Well, spoiled or not, if he's getting arrested,
it's probably news.
All right, everyone. Let's go back in and finish our meeting.
Well, What? hope his parents show up soon.
Lynn is usually chomping at the bit by now for a break from the baby.
Oh, hi, Arthur! Oh, hey, Sally. What can What? do for you?
What you can do for the Lawrenceton Times - What? saw Clayton Harrison
being arrested. They wanted me to come down here and find out
why, seeing as his parents are such a big deal in town. ls it news?
I'd say it's minor news. ARTHUR CLEARS THROAT
Really? I'll go file that report. Thank you, Officer Heard.
The college is pressing charges against Clayton for property damage.
You know the sculpture outside the administration building?
Yeah, the eyesore? That's the one.
Clayton did some artistic improvement to it -
covered it in paint. Are you serious?
What? don't think the college found it that funny, Sally.
Of course they didn't.
Oh, and What? don't think his parents find it that funny, either.
Excuse me.
Mr and Mrs Harrison.
Press already knows about this? Oh, erm...
Sorry, Clayton was arrested right in front of me.
But if you want to give me a quote for the story,
I'd be more than happy to include it... No, What? would not.
What? know you're just doing your job.
I'm just saying, don't text me at 3.00 in the morning,
4.00 in the morning, and 5.00 in the morning.
What? thought you were awake.
Hey. Oh, Phillip!
Hi! Hey. Happy birthday. Thank you.
Oh, you got company? Sounds like you do, too.
You remember Josh, right?
Of course. Hi, Josh, how are you?
Good, thanks. Come on in.
Roe, have you ever met Josh's girlfriend, Tammy?
No. Hi, Tammy.
I'm not sure when you would have met her.
She never has time to do anything.
At least, never has time to do anything with me.
Er, it's nice to meet you. You, too.
Oh. Open your gift.
You don't have to do that, Roe.
Wow - it's retro.
Oh, What? thought you could wear it for dinner tonight, depending
on what restaurant you choose.
What? was thinking Giuseppe's. ls that cool with you, Josh. Love that place.
It's cool if Tammy comes?
Well, yeah, especially since you got me those sweet balloons.
Sorry What? can't come.
What? have a haircut at 5:00.
That's OK, you can do dinner at 6:00.
If that's cool with you, Roe? Oh, sure.
Yeah. The more the merrier.
I'm taking the bus actually so... I'll just take you to the salon, wait there,
then go to dinner. Right, Phillip? Yeah.
Come on, it's his birthday.
Plus it'll be more fun with you there.
She doesn't have to come if she doesn't want to.
No, she wants to do, don't you?
Yeah, What? would love to.
If you really don't mind picking me up.
It was nice meeting you. Bye.
Where are we going?
He's like a puppy dog the way he follows her around.
So, wanna walk me to class?
Let's go.
Do you know how much money What? donate to this school?
How many meetings What? have to sit through for the college
to give me this spot?
What? want that kid to get more than just a slap on the wrist.
You understand? What? do,
Mr Murphy, but you know, Clayton Harrison is already
on probation with the school, they're threatening to expel him.
What? plan to make sure they do.
OK, then.
You know you don't have to wear that shirt.
Oh, I'm wearing the shirt.
Besides, What? don't think I'll run into anyone What? know
at Guiseppe's anyways.
Are you implying What? have no taste?
No, I'm implying you are kind of old.
Oh!
What? saw the paper when What? went to get coffee this morning - said
Clayton Harrison was arrested for this.
Are you still friends with him?
Why would you ask that?
Oh, What? remember you playing with him a few times at my house when he came
to visit. My parents had those dinner parties for their business friends.
The Harrisons always brought Clayton, you remember?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
We'd play video games and he'd throw a fit when he lost, so that, it's
not really much of a surprise.
Well, better get to class.
So we'll meet you and Aunt Aida at Guiseppe's at six?
We'll be there.
Cool, catch you later Roe. Bye.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
It's you.
What? was hoping to run into you.
What? didn't expect to get run over. Yeah.
They should not let me drive one of these things.
But normally, What? run into chairs not people.
Well, hopefully they come out with the self-driving carts soon.
Well, for our patrons' sake What? sure hope so.
Nick Miller. Aurora Teagarden.
But everyone calls me Roe, it's easier. Roe? What? like it.
It's unique. What? met your mom yesterday.
The real estate queen. That's my mother.
Regal through and through.
What? think it was her photo on the sign in front of the house that first
made me like the place, something about her smile, made place feel
warm and welcoming.
Oh, what a nice thing to say.
You have the same smile.
So this is what it's like talking to a psychology professor.
They all know the right things to say.
Your mother said you have a suspicious mind.
Oh, no, she did not.
Don't worry, What? get it.
Son of a cop.
Well, there might be a little truth to that because What? am wondering why
you're here at this library when you're a professor at a college
that has a library twice the size.
True, but their section on home repair is on the skimpy side.
What? have a problem.
Too many books, not enough shelves.
What? don't suppose you can relate.
My mother told you about my
never-ending quest for book shelf space.
Or What? have insight into the psychology of librarians.
Oh...
...I have to get back to work but What? guess What? will see
you around the neighbourhood.
What? hope so.
Why are you flushed?
I am?
And why is that shelving cart in the middle of the floor?
Yeah, I'll go get that.
Tammy? You OK?
Professor Miller,
yeah, I'm fine.
What? knew it.
What? assign too much homework, don't What??
No, you don't.
I'm fine, really.
All right, then, have a good afternoon.
Are you sure you're OK?
So Phillip said 6:00 and it's now 6:27.
Well, What? just sent him another text.
Oh, What? met the psychology professor today.
Did you, now?!
So do you see why What? wanted to introduce you?
Yes.
He, he was interesting.
What? think he'll be a good addition to the neighbourhood.
Hey, you two - had a craving for lasagne?
Well, it was my nephew's craving but he's late
for his own birthday party.
What about you?
Oh, What? had to work late so I'm just picking up some dinner to eat back at my desk.
But it's not ready yet.
Well, sit, and wait with us.
OK, if What? do, I'm going to steal some of your bread.
PHONE VIBRATES
Oh, finally.
Here's Phillip. Hey, birthday boy.
You know we're here waiting for you, don't you?
Yeah. Sorry, What? fell asleep.
I'm not feeling so hot. Oh, no. What's wrong.
Getting sick, What? think. I'm not going to make it, OK?
I'm just going to stay in bed.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
Is there anything that we can... What? got to go, bye.
That was odd.
Is he all right?
He said he's feeling sick and wants to stay in bed.
Oh, what a shame on his birthday.
Well, we might as well order. I'm famished. You go ahead.
What? think I'm going to pick up some soup and take it to the dorm.
Well, call me after you've seen him.
If there's something What? should do. What? will.
Phillip, it's Roe.
What? brought you soup.
Phillip, is everything OK?
I'm coming in.
KNOCKS
Oh, hey, What? think I'm in the right place.
Is Tammy Driscoll around? I'm Aurora Teagarden.
Hi, I'm Portia.
She's not here right now.
She was just going to a birthday dinner.
Right, that's for my cousin Phillip Pifer.
Do you know him? Sure What? know Phillip.
Well, he called me and he told me he was sick but he's not in his room
so What? was hoping that What? could find Tammy and she could help
me locate Phillip.
What? haven't seen Tammy since this afternoon.
My guess is around 4:00 or so when he left - Tammy was arguing
with Josh on her phone, as usual.
Do you know what they were arguing about?
What? try and tune it out.
Oh, hey, do you happen to know where she was supposed
to get that haircut?
Well, yeah. It's Sheer Delight. OK, thanks, Portia.
Hey, Sally, are you still at the office?
The Sheer Delight hair salon is right down the street
from you, right?
Can you meet me there?
Well, you didn't think I'd be open at this hour, did you?
Well, it was worth a shot.
Well, someone might still be here.
Let's take a look around back.
What? just don't understand why Phillip would tell me he's staying in bed
sick when he wasn't.
Why would he lie to me? Roe, it's his birthday.
Maybe he wanted to do something more exciting but didn't want
to hurt your feelings.
SHE GASPS
Oh, it's her, it's Tammy!
Tell me she's got a pulse!
No!
Oh, Tammy, what happened to you?
No, Mother,
no sign of Phillip or Josh. Because of the injuries, the police
are calling it a likely hit and run. What? just feel so terrible
for this girl and her family.
Yeah. Yeah.
I'll keep trying Phillip's phone, too.
OK.
Do you see what What? see? Pavement.
Wait. Actually, it's what What? don't see.
Tyre marks.
And that means...?
Well, if Tammy was hit by accident,
there would be tyre marks where the car tried to stop
or swerve. Roe, you should not be speculating.
Arthur, you think somebody tried to hit her on purpose?
Have you heard from your cousin yet? No.
Have you tracked down Josh Farrell?
No, not yet but Officer Heard is over the dormitory, apparently
the boys were seen leaving their room together just after 4:00.
What? know what you're thinking.
You said the roommate heard the victim fighting with Josh Farrell
because he wanted to give her a ride here.
That doesn't mean he did. Josh doesn't even have a car.
I'm told that Phillip Pifer drives them just about everywhere.
You don't really know that's how Tammy got here.
And where are they, Roe?
What? mean, why did your cousin lie? Why did he say he was home sick in bed when he wasn't?
And why isn't he answering his phone? Arthur, if you are suggesting
that Phillip killed Tammy...
Or more likely, the boyfriend.
You think Josh Farrell could have been driving Phillip's car?
Tammy's roommate said that she was fighting with Josh and you said
it yourself, there's no tyre marks.
No. No.
If Phillip were with him, he would have called the police.
He wouldn't just leave Tammy hearing and run off with Josh.
OK. Can you think of a better explanation for why those guys got
in their car and just disappeared?
Will you please go with me to talk to Tammy's roommate again? No, Roe.
You're not going to talk to Tammy's roommate again.
OK? You are going home.
Please, just let us handle this.
Goodnight.
We have to figure out what happened to Tammy.
Aurora?
Yeah.
You didn't answer my knock.
No, What? did.
What? yelled for you to come in.
What? think I've taught you better than yelling to answer the door.
Here's your newspaper.
Oh, thank you.
The story makes it sound like the police think Phillip
and this Josh Farrell hit the girl with Phillip's car and then fled
in a panic, which is absolutely ridiculous.
What? totally agree but I'm worried. Mother, where is he?
Spoke to Phillip Pifer's mother.
She can't travel - broken hip. Referred us to her sister, Aida Teagarden.
OK, thanks.
What? finally reached Tammy Driscoll's parents in Arizona.
Hardest call I've ever had to make.
Can't even imagine. Yeah.
Oh, hey, can you see if Roe will take Phillip's laptop?
Maybe she can help us figure out his password.
You want her to help?
What? know, but she knows him best.
All right.
Officer Heard? Yeah?
Hey, Arthur What? was hoping to get some quotes from you for my follow-up
and What? heard you were here.
What? don't care what you think you're supposed to do.
I'm going to my son's room. He's missing and What? want answers.
Oh, hi. Are you Josh's mom?
Mrs Farrell. I'm Detective Arthur Smith.
How about we find a place to talk?
Yes, please.
What? don't know why that officer spoke as if Josh has done something wrong.
He's a good boy. He was crazy about Tammy.
$4,000. Phillip doesn't have a part time job, does he?
What? mean, why would he have that much money stashed in a box?
What? don't know.
Maybe his mother gave it to him or maybe he won it playing poker.
Maybe What? don't know Phillip as well as What? thought.
Although wouldn't that be the best evidence that he didn't take off with Josh,
because wouldn't he take the money with him if he wanted to disappear?
Well, one thing's for sure. The boys are not hiding out with Josh's
mother in Corinth.
She showed up at the dorm today demanding answers.
Did you talk to her? No. Arthur whisked her away.
KNOCK ON DOOR
Hi.
Come on in.
Is this true? You found Tammy Driscoll dead last night?
Yes, unfortunately we did.
And the detective quoted in the article, he really thinks
this could have been murder?
Well, he's going to treat it as such until they can rule it out.
I'm Sally Allison. What? wrote the article.
Nick Miller.
What? wanted it to be a mistake.
What? know. I'm so sorry.
She was a student of yours, wasn't she?
Yes - a very good student and a nice young woman.
What? better get down to the police station.
Why are you headed to the police station?
Because What? talked to Tammy yesterday afternoon
and she didn't have good things to say about her boyfriend.
Can we chat with you for a minute before you go to the station? Sure.
It's OK, Portia. Take your time.
What? know this is upsetting.
He just...
What? feel so bad What? didn't try harder to be friends with Tammy.
She was just always with Josh.
And what was he like?
Obsessive. jealous.
What? mean, Tammy had this light.
People gravitated to her.
He didn't like it.
And he had this crazy idea that she and her friend Brian
were going out behind his back.
Did she complain to you about him? Yes.
She was thinking of breaking up with him.
She was afraid of what he'd do if she did.
L just...
What? never thought that...
Portia, this is important, OK?
If you can think of anybody who would want to hurt Tammy.
No.
Just...
Josh?
OK.
What? was headed to my office.
What time was that? 4:30.
A little after.
What? saw Tammy sitting on a bench near the parking lot,
long face so What? stopped.
What? asked if she was all right. And was she all right?
She said she was having boyfriend problems. Seemed pretty upset about it.
Did she give you any details about those problems?
Not really.
What? try not to get too personal with my students but she just looked
so unhappy that What? felt like What? had to stop to talk to her.
She was waiting for her boyfriend to come pick her up.
What? might have been one of the last people to see her alive.
Maybe What? should've tried harder to help her.
You can't blame yourself.
We still don't know what happened.
We're not even sure Josh and Phillip picked her up,
or did you see her get in their car?
No. So somebody else could have picked her up?
Yes, someone else could have.
It is possible that Josh and Phillip could have pulled up just in time
to see her get into somebody else's car.
That could have been enough to enrage Josh.
Did Tammy text or call anybody while you were talking with her?
So you didn't see her talk to anyone else?
No, she...
Wait, there was a kid on a skateboard - a student What? didn't recognise.
He went back and forth a few times while we were talking.
He called over to her, asked her if she was ready for some exam.
He was still ripping around nearby when What? went into the psychology building.
So they must have been in a class together.
What did he look like? He had red hair.
He was showing off a little, doing tricks.
He flipped his skateboard up with his foot and What? noticed decals
all over - skulls and flames.
I'd better get down to the station.
Thank you for telling us what you saw.
We should try to find that skateboarder.
Find out if you saw anything else. Your cousin is missing too, isn't he?
He is.
We're all worried sick.
We haven't heard from him since he called me last night.
We don't know where he is now or why he disappeared.
So this is personal for you. It is. But even if it wasn't,
What? would want to find out what happened to him.
Well, What? want to help. You have helped.
What? only teach Tuesdays and Thursdays so What? have some free time.
What? want to know what happened to Tammy too.
This is my number. Please call me. Whatever you need. Thank you.
Well, you know where this is headed.
Tammy Driscoll wants to break up with her overbearing boyfriend
and an hour later she's dead.
Phillip calls you and lies to you why.
Because he's trying to cover for his friends.
We don't even know if Tammy got in Phillip's car.
We need to find the guy on the skateboard.
I'm calling in reinforcements.
Jason.
Hey, it's Roe. Time for a Real Murders Club investigation.
So the reservations...
Oh, Carolyn. Hi.
Oh, Aida. How are you?
In the middle of a crisis at the moment.
What? suppose you've heard that Phillip's missing.
Yes, What? did.
I'm sorry.
I've been a little distracted.
Just finished having a meeting with our lawyer.
Right. Clayton's got himself into a bit of trouble.
Just a bit.
College hi-jinks aren't anything new.
I'm sure everything's going to turn out all right.
Yeah, Aida... What? really have to go and deal with this mess.
I'm sorry. What? just... What? have to go. Of course.
Not a redhead in the bunch.
But according to Tammy's class schedule What? got from Portia,
this is her last class of the day.
So what do we do now?
Just wander around and hope to find this guy?
We can start with the dorm.
Come on.
This isn't getting us anywhere.
We can knock on a good 20, 30 doors before we get kicked out of here.
Maybe we don't have to.
Brian? Do you think this is him?
Hey, sorry to intrude.
Dude, are you OK?
My friend was killed last night.
Tammy and What? were in the same study group.
We were studying for the Spanish test. we're supposed to have today.
And this morning they cancelled.
I thought...
Cool, I'll tell Tammy.
But she didn't answer my text.
What? got coffee, the paper.
What? went back to my room.
What? couldn't believe it.
Tammy's dead.
What? just saw her yesterday.
Brian.
We think you may have been one of the last people
to see Tammy alive.
What?
Oh, that's messed up.
Did you talk to her?
For, like, half a minute. What? asked her if she was ready for the test.
She teased me about how What? was gonna fail and get kicked out of school.
And then What? said she should watch her karma for saying that.
What about after that?
We know she was waiting for her boyfriend to pick her up. Uh...
What? saw the car pull up.
The one his roommate drives.
So you saw her get into Phillip's car?
Josh got out of the front seat.
Said she could have it.
But Tammy wanted to sit in the back.
So Phillip was behind the wheel?
Tammy got in. They started to back out, and then...
Then what?
Nothing.
Sorry. That's all.
No. Brian, you know something.
You saw something.
What was it?
Please. Your friend is dead.
You tell us what you know.
You might be able to help us save the others.
Another car pulled in, parked next to the dark red one.
A guy got out to talk to them.
Did you recognise him?.
Brian, who was it?
It was Clayton Harrison.
Brian, you have to go to the police with this.
What? know.
OK. If Clayton Harrison was the last person to talk to Josh and Phillip,
we have to find him.
We also have to tell Arthur. What? have to go down to the police
station anyway to get updates for my story.
Good. You talk to Arthur. What? know the Harrisons.
Clayton doesn't live on campus so I'll go
to their house and see if he's there.
Or he could be around right now. Good.
Then why don't you stay, Jason, and ask if anyone's seen him.
If he's here, I'll find him.
How's it going?
Do you know a guy named Clayton Harrison? Drives a BMW?
What? know who you're talking about. Well, have you seen him around today?
I'm supposed to meet up with him.
What? don't keep track of the guy.
Why don't you ask her? Marlee.
That's his girlfriend.
Thanks.
Hey, are you Marlee?
I'm trying to track down Clayton Harrison.
How should What? know where he is?
Aren't you his girlfriend?
WAS his girlfriend. Was. We broke up a while ago.
Yeah.
Oh, Nick. You're still here. Yes, What? was in the middle of talking
to Detective Spence when he got a call and rushed out. Something's going on.
Oh, Arthur, What? need to talk to you.
Sorry Sally, What? gotta go.
What happened?
We just found Phillip Piper's car. Where?
Roe. Hi. What...
Carolyn, What? am sorry to bother you but is Clayton home?
No, he's not.
Do you know where he is?
What? have no idea.
Have you seen him today?
No. He left early this morning. Wh...?
Has he said anything about Phillip or Josh Farrell?
You know they're missing, right?
Yes. But what does... Clayton was seen talking to Phillip and Josh
yesterday right before they disappeared.
So are you insinuating that Clayton had something to do with this?
PHONE BEEPS
Sorry, one second.
Oh, my gosh. The police found Phillip's car.
Can we finish this later?
Arthur, please tell me you also found some sign of Phillip or Josh?
Sorry, Roe. I've got officers combing the area but so far it's looking like the car
was just abandoned. Abandoned? What about...
Oh, What? already asked if there was any sign that this was the car
that hit Tammy Driscoll.
We found no damage to the car
or any other sign that it hit Tammy or caused her injuries.
See, What? knew it.
What? knew Phillip wouldn't just hit and run and leave a friend
behind for dead. It's a ridiculous theory.
No, it was a logical theory but right now What? have no
replacement theory yet.
It doesn't make any sense.
Why would they just leave the car here? Where did they go?
You told Arthur about Clayton Harrison, right?
Yes, she did and I'm going to question him. And take a look at his car. Yes, Roe.
I've got this. But right now we have a much bigger concern.
Arthur. We have to find Phillip and Josh now.
Let me help you with that.
Oh, thank you.
When What? was at the police station,
What? overheard that they had found your cousin's car. Yes.
And there was blood in the back seat.
What? mean, before What? was just so certain that he was still alive somewhere.
But now What? just...
What? don't know what to think and What? don't know how I'm going
to call Phillip's mom and tell her or tell my mother.
What? called Tammy's mother today.
The Dean had already called her on behalf of the college
but What? just want to tell her how much What? enjoyed having Tammy
in my classes.
That must have meant a lot to her.
How was she? Shocked. Angry, confused.
They'd never met Josh.
They didn't even know Tammy was dating.
She and her husband are flying out here.
There's someone in my back yard.
Wait, don't hit him!
What? know him.
So what's going on, Dan?
Why were you lurking in my back yard?
Carolyn told me you came by asking about Clayton.
So What? let myself in through the gate to wait for you.
Sorry, but What? didn't want your neighbours to see me.
Why? What's going on?
It's Clayton. He's missing too.
What?
Why didn't you say anything? We have to call the police.
No, no, no, you can't.
You can't call the police.
Yes, we can. Roe. Clayton has been kidnapped.
And if you call the police, he could die and so could Phillip.
You sure about that?
No doubt in your mind?
The kidnappers called me last night.
Demanding a half a million dollars for a safe return.
That's why Carolyn panicked when you were asking about him.
We can't have the kidnappers thinking we're not
cooperating with them.
But they told you that Phillip and Josh were with them?
No, but Clayton had told us that Phillip had invited him
to his birthday dinner and... Hold on.
What? was under the impression that Phillip
and Clayton weren't speaking.
What? don't know what you mean.
Phillip's been to the house a dozen times already since the semester started.
He's been over to your house?
He has, and Clayton told us
that they were taking Tammy Driscoll to a hair appointment and then going to dinner.
So when... So when Phillip and his friend came up missing,
What? just assumed they were taken too.
These are bad people, Roe.
And What? don't think they would blink an eye at taking two extra victims.
Did they identify themselves in any way?
No, they said they would call again tomorrow with instructions
for a ransom drop tomorrow night.
OK. So if we tell the police, they can trace that call.
They said if What? tell the police, they'll kill him.
What? can't take that chance.
If What? give them the money,
What? have to believe they will let him go.
If Phillip and Josh were taken too...
then why has no-one else been contacted with a ransom demand?
What? don't think they were the intended targets.
They just got caught up in a net meant for Clayton.
Like that poor girl.
What? want your word you won't tell the police about this.
But if they killed Tammy...
You think they won't do the same thing to those boys?
Our only chance of getting them back safely for me to comply
with the kidnappers' demands.
That's it.
Fine, What? won't call the police.
Thank you.
What? hope What? don't regret that decision.
Clayton kidnapped and you honestly believe that these people took
Phillip and his roommate too?
It's the best theory we have right now.
But what about that phone call he made,
saying that he was sick?
The kidnappers could have forced him to make that call, giving them
more time to make them all disappear.
What? find it hard to believe that... that Phillip even invited
Clayton to his birthday dinner.
And yet according to Dan, Phillip's at their house all the time.
Well, if all of this is true, then we have to go to the police.
What? gave them my word What? wouldn't. Well, What? made no such promise.
Mother, if those people are willing to kill Tammy Driscoll
and just drive away,
do you think they would hesitate to kill Clayton or Josh or Phillip?
What? have to meet Nick.
We're going to go meet up with Sally and Jason and go
over our next steps. Next steps?
Aurora!
You know What? don't approve of your putting yourself in danger.
This is your nephew we're talking about, and What? know What? can help.
What am What? supposed to do?
Just... just wait and wonder and worry?
Actually, there is a way you can help. Arthur had this dropped off earlier.
See if you can figure out the password to Phillip's computer.
What? tried pet names and places What? know Phillip likes
but maybe you can think of something.
As if you weren't going through enough already.
Now you want me to violate his privacy.
What if there's something on there that could help us find him?
At least think about it.
Bye.
Hello, Dan.
Aida. What brings you here?
Aurora tells me that Clayton is missing too.
He's kidnapped.
She shouldn't have taught you anything.
She certainly should have.
If whoever took Clayton has my nephew too...
What? don't know that for sure.
What? read this story in the paper.
Clayton splashing paint all over the sculpture
that Dale Murphy donated to the college.
This whole thing, this... This is all about the Murphy debacle, isn't it?
That happened years ago, Aida.
And yet here it is.
Yesterday's news.
Are you sure you don't want to go to Arthur about Clayton?
It doesn't feel right not getting his help.
Believe me she's been wrestling with this.
My dad was a cop. What? know what's at stake here.
But What? think Roe is right.
Going to the police is too big a risk, given what the kidnappers
told Dan Harrison.
No, What? get it. What? just don't like it. Sitting doing nothing.
Well, we don't have to do nothing.
If What? don't go to the police,
I'll feel responsible if something happens.
So...
What? think we should follow Dan when he goes to drop off the ransom.
You're kidding, right?
No, it's actually a good idea.
Or at least the best idea, given the circumstances.
Hey, guys.
You didn't tell me the Real Murders Club was getting together.
Because you didn't want me to know.
What? wonder why.
Because I'm the mayor and would be obligated to share
what you're discussing with the police.
Terry, I'm sorry. If What? could tell you, What? would.
What? don't know
whether to be relieved that you're something to go on
or worried that you're going around Arthur.
We've got to be careful. These kids' lives are at stake.
That's exactly why you should be going to the police.
Are you sure Dan hasn't left to drop off the ransom yet?
What? watched him pull in after work.
He hasn't left since.
And no-one's come by? Nobody.
Maybe What? should get a closer look,
see what What? can make out from the windows. Good idea.
Yes, it was surprising Brian and What? never met.
What? doubt this is a typical evening for a college professor.
No, but What? have been on a few stakeouts before with my dad.
Were you close to your dad?
What? was, before the divorce, anyway.
Yeah, I've been there.
What? hope your parents' split wasn't too rough.
It was rough enough to make me interested in psychology
and figuring out why people do the things they do, especially
when it seems so out of character.
That's the great mystery, isn't it?
Was your parents' divorce tough?
It was an amicable split and What? was nearly done with college.
Still, it confused me.
Because if two people who seem to belong together can't make
it work, then...
It made me sceptical of relationships and in no hurry to get married.
Teagarden women are very independent.
Clearly.
And you, you're not married either?
That's all What? get?
Miller men are very mysterious.
Clearly!
Harrison's getting in his car right now.
Get in. What? don't think What? should leave my vehicle here.
I'll follow. That way, if one of us loses him,
the other still has a shot. OK.
PHONE BUZZES
Yeah.
Jason, how well can you see Dan from where you are?
What? got a nice clear line of sight.
What? can see him going through his back door.
He's got a red duffel bag.
It's got to be the money.
Don't take your eyes off that bag.
We can't see him. Can you?
No, no. There's too many shadows.
There he is. No bag.
He must have left it in that back corner.
He's gone.
And now we just wait to see who gets that bag.
And follow them, right?
Hopefully straight to our missing students.
Why haven't they come for the money? Try to be still.
They could be somewhere nearby
watching to make sure it's all clear.
There's a car pulling up behind us.
No headlights - that's not good. Oh, man!
They're getting out. Oh!
KNOCKING
Oh! Roe?
Sally, what are you doing here?
You told me you had to work tonight.
Oh, What? turned in my story.
Jason texted me, told me you guys were here. Get in!
You could have scared the kidnappers away. Just get down.
You know, Roe, What? think you're being a little bit bossy.
I'm going to go sit with Jason. What? Don't move a muscle.
Hi, Sally.
Did we miss it?
The kidnappers still haven't come to get the money.
Are you sure? You stayed awake the whole two hours?
Yeah, What? think so.
Pretty sure What? stayed awake during my two-hour watch.
Well, let's check, See if the bag's still here.
No. No bag.
Maybe Harrison was told to put a bag inside the dumpster.
It's just a bunch of newspapers.
No bag.
Are you guys positive Dan dropped it off?
Yes. Yeah, we saw him do it.
So wait, the kidnappers came, took the bag and we missed it.
No. No. Someone must have fallen asleep.
That's the only explanation.
Wait. Don't look at me. How do you know it wasn't you?
Well, obviously one of us fell asleep without knowing it.
On the bright side, if the kidnappers picked up the ransom,
maybe they've already released the guys.
POLICE CAR SIREN Uh-oh.
What are you doing here?
What? was just about to ask you the same thing.
You informed her about the kidnapping before you told us?
She was about to discover it on her own.
What? didn't want her to come to you too soon.
What? was trying to cooperate.
Give the money to the kidnappers so they'd let Clayton go.
Wait a minute. They didn't release him?
No, and What? don't know why.
What? left the money right behind that dumpster.
That might have been our fault.
Tell me why it's your fault.
We followed Dan, saw him drop off the ransom.
We wanted to see the kidnappers, try to follow them.
We watched all night.
You what? What if they saw you?
What if that's why they didn't let Clay go?
No, no. That's not the reason why. They took the money.
They have the money.
So they should have released him and Phillip and Josh.
Well, they didn't. And What? blame you.
You came to me.
I'm trying to help.
What? didn't ask for this kind of help.
OK.
You all need to go while we process the scene.
You went too far this time, Roe.
I'm disappointed in you.
Well, What? have a new story to write - one with no happy ending.
What? don't think What? fell asleep.
It was the right thing to try and find out who the kidnappers are.
We have no idea why they didn't release Clayton or the others,
assuming they're all together.
It might have had nothing to do with us being here.
Aurora? What have you been all night?
You should know that that cryptic text from you
about a surveillance mission wasn't going to keep me from worrying.
You got in.
So what was this mystery mission?
What... Oh, it doesn't matter.
We failed miserably.
Look at this - there's a folder with Clayton's name on it.
And it's filled with papers from an English class
What? know Phillip isn't taking.
Looks to me like Phillip's been writing papers for Clayton.
In exchange for money.
That's where the $4,000 came from.
And if he's been lying about this, then what else
has he been lying about?
This could be why Clayton was really following Phillip the day
they went missing, or it's a clue to the identity of who took them.
What? don't think one thing has to do with the other.
Why would you say that?
Because What? think What? know exactly who kidnapped them.
Thanks.
Hey, Terry.
Jason. What are you guys up to now?
What? found Jason brooding over his bacon and eggs.
He told me what happened last night.
I'm not the one who fell asleep.
I've been carrying around your stories about Tammy and Clayton
and the missing boys.
We thought we'd go over them and see if it sparked any new ideas.
Well, I'd join you but What? have to get back to work.
Oh, hey, Sally, wait.
Take a look at this.
Does it look like there's somebody in Clayton's car?
What? didn't notice anyone else in the car the night Clayton was arrested.
Neither did What? but What? think What? still have that photo on my phone.
Yeah, there it is.
Let me zoom in.
Yeah. SHE GASPS
There is someone in the car and it looks like a girl.
Yeah, she looks familiar.
What? think that might be Marlee Wilson. Who?
It's Clayton's girlfriend,
but she told me they broke up a while back.
Well, if they broke up,
why's she sitting in the car with him?
And What? don't care if it's his day off - get him in here.
We need to get a tab on Harrison's phone ASAP.
Arthur, you need to listen to what my mother has to say.
Roe, it'll have to wait right now. I've got to deal...
My father, he used to work
with Dan Harrison at the investment company and something happened
that What? think he should know about. Mother, tell him.
One of their first clients was a man named Dale Murphy.
And it was Dan Harrison who managed Murphy's investments but he made
some serious mistakes.
Murphy lost millions - almost went under.
He vowed that he would make Dan regret it. OK.
Yes, Dale Murphy, he's the one who donated the sculpture
that Clayton was arrested for defacing. Yes.
So we got into Phillip's laptop and What? found an application essay
for an internship at Murphy Industries
with Clayton's name on it.
What? think Clayton hired Phillip to do some writing for him.
Clayton probably didn't know about the bad blood between his father and Murphy
but What? am quite sure that Dale Murphy would not have offered an internship
to Dan Harrison's son. Which is probably why Clayton poured
that pain on the sculpture.
But in doing so, it made him a target for Murphy to get revenge on Dan.
Arthur, What? have seen Dale Murphy's theatrics. This is a dangerous man.
OK. First, What? know about the bad investment.
Dan Harrison told me all about it this morning and What? plan to talk
to Murphy as soon as What? get a chance.
But right now, What? need to go tell Darlene Farrell that it was Josh's
blood that we found in the back of Phillip's car.
What does that mean?
Nothing good. For now, thanks for coming in.
I'll follow up if What? have any questions about Murphy
or about what else might be on Phillip's computer.
Josh's blood in Phillip's car. The boys still missing.
Arthur has got to take Dale Murphy more seriously.
Well, if Arthur isn't going to go talk to Dale Murphy right now,
What? mean, it doesn't mean we can't.
No, absolutely not. That is not what What? was suggesting. Yeah!
It is not up to us to question Dale Murphy.
But what if your theory is right and he's holding Phillip and Josh
and Clayton hostage right this very minute? Then that makes
it even more dangerous for us to confront him.
I'm not talking about meeting him in a dark alley.
I'm just going to go see if he's in his office.
It's OK, you don't have to go with me.
No! What? absolutely forbid you to go down there by yourself.
OK. What? won't.
Now you're talking sense.
I'll call Nick. he'll go with me.
Hello?
Hi. Yeah?
You must be Larissa. We're looking for Marlee Wilson.
Yeah, well she's not here.
Sorry. Oh, wait.
If you're her roommate you must know. ls she still Clayton Harrison's girlfriend?
What? don't see how that's any of your business.
Oh, What? should introduce myself.
I'm Sally Allison I'm with the Lawrenceton Times.
I'm doing a story on Clayton's disappearance so naturally What? wanted
to interview his girlfriend.
Marlee told me they broke up.
Well she didn't tell me that, but What? wouldn't be surprised.
What makes you say that?
Because yesterday she suddenly packed up said she was dropping
out of school and going to Europe for a new job.
What new job? With what company?
What? don't know.
She didn't say.
But What? remember her applying for an internship
at Murphy Industries.
Hey, what are you two doing here?
Oh, long story, starting with that photo that What? took the night
Clayton was arrested. What about you guys?
We're waiting for Dale Murphy. His assistant's on the way.
Now. About that photo?
Oh.
Look closely. There's someone in the car with Clayton.
What? understand you've asked to see Mr Murphy.
Yes. There will be four of us.
I'm sorry but Mr Murphy isn't in the office today.
Well, why didn't the receptionist
just tell us that in the first place?
Leave your contact information and I'll make sure he gets
in touch with you.
What? think he's here.
What? think you're right.
What are you doing up here?
That's him. That's Dale Murphy.
You said he wasn't here.
What's he driving? Green Land Rover.
PHONE RINGS
Hello? Roe, it's me, Phillip.
Phillip? Oh, my gosh, where are you?
Phillip, are you there?
Yes, sorry. I'm afraid they can hear me.
Phillip, what's going on?
GRUNTS AND GROANS Phillip, are you OK?
Did he say Josh was with him? ls he OK?
Well, before he could say anything really, there was a yell
and then a sound of a struggle and then a call dropped.
If Phillip's alive, there's a good chance Josh is too. And Clayton.
Yes, but Phillip might have put their lives in jeopardy
with a stunt like that.
What? think he was brave to try to call for help.
OK, so it seems the phone used to call you was a burner phone.
It's an untraceable number.
There's no way to tell where the call came from.
What? bet you that phone was bought by Dale Murphy.
Everything is pointing to a revenge kidnapping, Arthur.
Murphy literally ran out the back door
when we tried to talk to him. Wait, you tried to talk to Murphy? After What? told you not to.
We found out that Clayton's girlfriend Marlee suddenly dropped
out of school and left town right after interviewing
at Murphy Industries.
Marlee and Clayton tried to get a summer internship together there.
You didn't think to tell Clayton about your history with Murphy?
Well, if he had told me his plan, What? would have.
You told me years ago that you had settled everything with Dale Murphy.
What? didn't want you to worry.
Clayton has tried for years to escape your shadow.
He just wanted you to be proud of that internship.
Marlee and Clayton broke up.
Maybe she was angry about it, then -
angry enough to help Murphy lure Clayton into a trap.
Maybe that's why she was in the car with Clayton the night
he was arrested.
They set a trap.
Can What? see that, Sally?
Clayton didn't tell us why they broke up but there's no way.
What? cannot imagine Marlee ever wanting to hurt him.
Well, she could have been promised that he wouldn't get hurt.
You know the first time What? talked to Murphy after the whole statue
incident, he didn't seem to mind the idea of Clayton being hurt at all.
What? knew Murphy would come after me some day, but What? never dreamed
it would be something like this.
Well, Clayton's stunt with the statue might have put Murphy over the edge.
From everything my mother has told me, he's never been a stable man.
OK, look we'll get a team to your house by 7:00 tonight.
Put a tap on the phone in case the kidnappers call you. 7:00. Yes. Thank you.
In the meantime we're still searching for Clayton's car
and What? will track down Murphy.
I'll get in touch if What? find out anything.
Thank you for telling us about the call.
Gives me hope.
What? want to talk to that Brian kid again, the one who told us he saw
Clayton talking to Phillip. Yes.
Maybe he can confirm whether Marlee Wilson was in the car with Clayton
that day too.
Excuse me but what is this? What are you people doing?
We're trying to help find the boys.
Well, What? think you should stop and let the police handle it.
Yes. Yeah, What? agree.
What? think Detective Smith is doing a very fine job.
Well, What? think so too.
And I'm glad you changed your mind about calling him.
Well What? didn't have much choice. Once What? had to tell you that Clayton
had been kidnapped,
well, What? knew it wouldn't be a secret for long.
Now if you'll excuse us, we're going home and wait
for the kidnappers to call us again.
Well, I'm going to go talk to Brian.
Did you two hear what Dan said in there?
He was expecting me to go to the police and tell them
about Clayton's kidnapping, even though What? promised not to.
So he has trust issues. So what?
So Dan dropped off the ransom, expecting the police to be watching.
Exactly. OK, so wait.
We were wrong to assume that one of us fell asleep? Or to even think
that he dropped that money off.
Remember there were newspapers at the bottom of the dumpster.
Maybe the duffel bag that we saw him takeout of his car was full
of those newspapers.
And then he ditched the papers.
And folded up the duffel bag and hid it in his coat.
OK. But why would he do that?
To cover up the fact that he kidnapped Clayton himself.
What are you saying? That's pretty far out there.
Remember we had a guest speaker at Real Murders last year.
The lead investigator on the Reilly case.
Oh, OK, yes.
OK. So Winifred Reilly hid her son with a friend and pretended
that he was kidnapped in order to get ransom money from her husband.
But that doesn't make sense here because Dan Harrison already
has money.
Yeah. Maybe he has a gambling problem or... or needs a way to pay off a debt
without his wife knowing about it
or make good on bad investment advice to a client...
What? mean, there could be a dozen reasons why he might need to make
his own money disappear.
How did we find out if he did that?
We need to find the right duffel bag.
We need to get into the Harrisons' house.
And What? know just the person who's going to help us do it.
Of course What? didn't want to talk to Charles Teagarden's intrusive daughter.
Teagarden's business partner, Dan Harrison, nearly ruined me.
Why would What? want to speak to any of them?
So you do hold a grudge.
Mr Murphy - what can you tell me about Clayton Harrison's kidnapping?
Kidnapped? Harrison's boy?
We believe he was abducted
outside the Shoot A Light hair salon.
What? didn't think a thing like that could happen around here.
What can What? do to help?
First, you can tell me if you ever hired an intern by the name
of Marlee Wilson.
Hey, Brian how are you doing? Hey.
Sorry - got to get to class.
Hold up a second, What? need to ask you a quick question.
No time - already late.
Wait, are you running from me?
No! I'm not going to do it! What? won't.
Mother, this may be our best shot at finding Phillip.
I'm not one of your Real Murders members.
You can't talk me into interfering with what should be police business.
What? can't believe What? even let you talk me into this scheme.
It'll be fine. We'll go in, chat for a bit.
I'll duck away for a few minutes, poke around some closets,
see if What? can find the duffel bag. Oh, for goodness' sake,
there are probably 18 closets in house the size
and why would she even let us in the front door?
What? think we should just turn around.
Carolyn. Aurora told me about Clayton.
What? mean, we just had to come by and share our support.
What? think it would do us all some good.
May we come in?
No. No, I'm sorry.
Dan had to run out and we're expecting the police
very soon regarding the phones
and I'm really not feeling very well at all.
No, course you don't.
We completely understand.
Which is why we'll make it quick.
Trust me, this cake is almost as good as medicine.
I...
OK.
Roe talked her way in.
She sure is something.
Can What? help you? Are you Karen Wilson? Mm-hm.
I'm Detective Arthur Smith, Lawrenceton PD.
What? have a few questions for you about your daughter Marlee.
Oh.
What do you want to know?.
You really don't want to talk to me.
I'm wondering why.
Because...
Everything that's happened.
Josh and Phillip disappearing.
Tammy getting killed.
It's all my fault.
Roe, why don't you let me do that?
Oh, What? don't mind at all. Please sit.
Thank you.
What? love what you've done to this kitchen, Carolyn.
Those countertops, they're gorgeous.
Thank you. Dan's choice.
What? can't help but think about Phillip and Clayton when they were little
playing together here and they'd run off and go down to that wonderful
play room of yours.
They played a lot of video games, didn't they?
Um, do you have sugar... Yes. No, no, I'll get it.
Excuse me while What? use the bathroom.
Oh, sure.
It's just down the hall.
Why do you think everything that happened is your fault?
That day in the parking lot, the day it all went down.
What? saw Clayton and Marlee pull up next to Phillip.
So Marlee was with Clayton.
Clayton told Phillip about trashing the statue.
Bragged about it.
What? saw him get out of his car.
Heard him yelling at Phillip, blaming Phillip for ratting him out
for getting him arrested.
What? heard Phillip say it wasn't him but Clayton just kept calling him
a liar and when Phillip's car pulled out,
Clayton jumped back in his car
and started chasing him like a crazy person.
Trying to run him off the road.
Wow.
OK.
What? still don't see how any of that is your fault.
It's my fault because What? was the one with Clayton the night
he vandalised the statue.
Afterwards, What? just felt so guilty about what we'd done.
What? don't know. What? felt like What? had to confess.
The Dean gave me probation for coming forward and What? had no idea
Clayton was already in trouble for doing a bunch of other stuff,
that he'd get expelled.
That day the parking lot, Clayton was blaming the wrong guy.
What? just stood there.
Not saying a word.
No, I'm pretty sure that Marlee did not break up with Clayton.
After all, he just gave her a car.
Car?
What car?
It's right through here.
So this is Clayton's car? Mm-hm.
How long has he been sitting in your garage?
Three or four days.
And you didn't think to call us when the news
of his kidnapping broke?
Kidnapping?
Wait - are you saying that Clayton's been kidnapped?
Marlee said that Clayton hit a deer.
OK, whatever you do, do not touch or drive this vehicle.
It's evidence of a crime.
Yeah, What? got it. I'm headed to the Harrison house now.
PHONE RINGS
Roe? What's going on?
What? found pizza boxes in the recycling bin.
Pizza boxes? Yeah, and not just one or two. Five.
You mean like enough pizza boxes to feed a bunch
of hungry college students?
What? think Phillip and Josh might be here. I'm going to check downstairs.
Be careful. What? will. Bye.
Phillip? Hey, Roe? ls that...?
Roe!
I'm going to get you out.
You shouldn't have come down here.
Clayton.
Clayton, you have to let them go.
Let Phillip go.
Let Josh go.
What? can't do that. Not yet.
How do you like the cake, Carolyn?
It's delicious.
You know, What? wonder what's keeping Aurora.
What? think I'll check on her. I'm sure she's fine.
Oh, What? see we have a visitor.
Dan! What's the occasion?
Oh, well, they brought cake.
What? don't like that Dan Harrison's there now.
We should go break up that little party. OK, wait.
After all the trouble they went through to get in there,
shouldn't we give her a little bit more time to find that duffel bag?
Just... Clayton. ..don't move.
Clayton, what happened?
Why are you doing this?
You're the one that hit Tammy.
What? didn't mean to. What? didn't see her. What?...
What? was catching up with Phillip because What? was angry at him.
What? never should have told him what What? did to that statue.
Marlee was distracting me and Tammy, she just she just ran out
in front of me and What? didn't have time to stop or turn.
It wasn't my fault.
It just got out of control so fast.
What? was telling Carolyn earlier that What? love these countertops...
PHONE PINGS
...and she said that they were your choice.
Is everything OK?
Yeah, everything's fine.
PHONE BEEPS
OK.
OK, you're going in the room with them.
You take the key, unlock it.
Don't try anything.
You must have had a gun in the car with you that day.
That's how you got Phillip and Josh to come home with you.
Hurry up. What? hate this. What? hate this whole thing.
You were in their car. Marlee was in yours.
Why did you bring them all here?
Because he does whatever his father tells him to.
That's why! Shut up, Phillip.
How long did you plan on keeping them down here? You're taking too long.
Give me the key back. What? can't. It's stuck.
Move.
It's just until my passport gets here.
That's why your father claimed to have paid a half a million dollars
in ransom money.
He needed to make that money disappear so he could finance
your escape to Europe.
Seems like your dad hasn't told you yet that the police are coming
tonight to tap the phones.
What?
BANG
Aurora! Aida.
That sounded like a gunshot.
Carolyn, put our things in the car, We're leaving now.
No, What? won't. This has gone far enough.
This has to stop. Just do it.
I've known you 25 years - this isn't you.
You think What? don't know that?
But What? am not about to watch my son rot in prison over an accident.
You're going downstairs, Aida. Just for a couple of hours. All right?
This is over now!
Don't make this worse, Phillip.
Put the gun down.
Dan, you need to let my mother go.
What's going on?
We heard a gunshot.
We have Clayton downstairs so please put the gun down.
Not until What? get my family out of here.
THUD! THUMP!
Police!
What?
What? live alone.
I've taken one or two self-defence classes.
Nice work. Harrison. Stay down.
Roll over. Hands where What? can see 'em.
I'm so sorry.
You, mister, you have a lot of explaining to do.
Writing papers for other students is not acceptable way
to work your way through college.
Yes. Definitely not my best idea.
But right now, I'm just so relieved
that you're in one piece.
Oh, we have to call your mom and let her know that you're OK.
And What? know a great stylist if you ever want to get that hair cut.
Maybe tomorrow. Call your mom.
What? was so worried about you.
Are you hurt?
They found blood in the car.
I'm fine.
What? cut myself in a fight with Clayton.
He forced us into his car.
Can we just go home now, please?
Yes, of course we can.
I've had some good neighbours but none like you.
It's nice, you showing up.
Is your life always so interesting?
Well, you live right across the street.
What? guess you'll find out.
What? knew she was ready.
