Over there!
Through those branches!
Do you think they're still alive?
Because there was no blood on the boot
according to the chat room.
You really gotta stop reading these things, okay?
They haven't been declared missing,
they just missed a couple of posts.
There is no "there" there.
Yeah, but it's such a crazy story.
Skyler and Amelia,
two BFFs,
who are live-streaming their road trip
across the continent,
when all of a sudden,
they stop broadcasting,
and poof! The van disappears.
I don't know, I've never been much for influencers, so--
These two were different.
Their van runs solely on used fryer grease,
making them completely carbon neutral.
Yeah, and helping them get clicks.
How can you be so cynical?
That boot was found in your area.
Do you know how many women go missing every year?
Yeah, I do,
a quarter million at least in the U.S. alone,
but this boot was found by crime junkies.
So?
So, the entire search was prompted
by an unsubstantiated Skymelia sighting.
It's just internet hysteria.
You know, for someone who is so disinterested,
you sure know the lingo.
Jake's here.
Ooh!
He might have Skymelia updates.
This is where we part ways.
Why?
Can't I stay on? Maybe he can get you on the case--
Bye, Sunny.
No, it's-- Mm!
Hey, so, talked to my buddy in New York.
I got the information on your friend, Sunny Patel.
Not my friend.
I'm not even gonna ask about that.
Okay, I sent you the audio link as well,
but headliners,
41, works for a company called Chastain.
Uh, she grew up in Delaware.
She's divorced, she's got no kids,
and she's lived in New York since about 2006.
That's it?
That's it, yeah. You looking for something else?
A traumatic event,
maybe a conviction,
some kind of connection to a crime.
You want to tell me what's going on?
Uh, no, you know, it's just a woman I met
in one of my guiding apps.
She just... I don't know, I got a hunch about her.
Well, you're usually bang on.
Not according to this report, though.
Oh, okay, Leo is asking if we want coffee.
You want a coffee?
No, I gotta get home.
Hey, should I be concerned about this woman?
Uh, no, you know what...
it's probably just in my head.
Don't-don't sweat it.
♪ There's somethin' in the shadows... ♪
Hey, Sunny, you home?
That's a joke, for the record.
It's Kye, obviously.
Sunny...
- Surprise! - Oh, my--
Mia?
Lucas let me in.
He came by to pick up a wine decanter,
which I'm guessing you're not gonna see again.
Yeah, 'cause I could see it so well to begin with.
Ah, which brings me to the reason for my visit.
You have officially graduated
from the Mia Moss Blind Enhancement Program!
Where is your hand? Hand! Hand!
I am pretty sure that is not a thing.
And I am here to present you
with the traditional graduation cap.
- Whoa! - You look fantastic.
Yeah, um...
this is Lucas's hat,
and you are a total weirdo.
Correct on both counts.
Truth is, I was in the area,
and thought I'd check in.
How you been coping?
Yeah, uh...
you know what, surprisingly well.
Yeah?
- Yeah. - Still using the apps?
Why?
Are you still judging them?
Okay,
I do practice my cane technique
sometimes,
and mostly, I use the apps.
What, "Be My Eyes"?
"Aira"? "Blind Square"?
EyesUP mostly.
I beta-tested for them.
Yeah?
Been after my endorsement ever since,
trying to use my client base.
Oh, let me guess,
you are holding out for more money?
I'm not a fan of the apps,
but I understand they work for some people.
Yeah,
they do...
if you get the right guide.
This is Sunny?
She's not quite what I pictured.
but I guess we've never Face-Timed before
Well, I never asked her.
I mean, what would be the point?
Anyway, this is the only Sunny Patel in New York City
who worked in marketing at Chastain,
and Jake's guy vetted her.
Well, that's a good thing, right?
I don't know, something just feels off.
Are you sure you're not just overreacting?
She tried to access a Level 5 cold case,
even I'm not cleared for that.
Well, maybe she was just snooping around.
Why don't you confront her about it?
Because if I'm right we might spook her,
and if she spooks, she might disappear.
No.
We need to find out what she's up to
without her knowing we know.
Okay...
Why don't you get her on another case,
try to draw out personal info
while I do a little digging here?
Okay?
Digging into what?
I mean, we already did three background checks.
Well, I can dig deeper than Jake.
So just make sure it's a case that she's into
so that she lets her guard down.
Okay.
Yeah, I can do that.
All right, I'll catch up with you later.
Okay, I'm ready. Ready go!
So, first, we have Skyler Simon.
She's 22.
She's the taskmaster,
and she's all business,
and then we have Amelia Meadwell,
who's also 22,
with her signature pink cowboy boots.
She's a little bit quirkier,
but she's actually the one
that you can't take your eyes off of,
metaphorically.
Yeah, I, uh, got the picture.
So what, you've just been watching their whole trip?
Yeah.
You know, it just... gets me out of the house--
virtually.
So, are you really gonna be asking Bennett
to get you on the case?
Uh, yeah, if I can convince him there is one.
I mean, look,
you've followed my instincts plenty of times,
so maybe it's time for me to follow yours.
So, walk me through everything you know.
I would love to.

So this is my favourite episode,
where they go to the Adirondacks out East,
and they have a run-in with a black bear,
and they flirt with a park ranger.
You really think this could be a case?
Well, it's too early to tell,
but, you know, I've been thinking about my cynicism
for all this influencer stuff,
and I don't know, maybe it's clouding the fact
that two girls might actually be missing.
What do you have against influencers anyway?
Well, there's nothing worse
than pretending to be someone you're not, right?
Mm-hmm.
But, you know, then again,
flirting with a park ranger sounds pretty great, so...
Oh, I should read you some of the theories
from The Skymelia Report.
Honestly, out of all the chatrooms--
Wait, go back.
To... what, the singing?
No, just after.
Um...
There.
There what? It's a stump.
No, listen.
That bird.
That's a Steller's Jay.
I know from visiting my grandma in Oregon.
So?
So Steller's Jays are West Coast birds.
And they're in the Adirondacks,
which is out East.
So why pretend to be somewhere they're not?
Tess,
you would make a valuable asset
to the Skymelia chat rooms.
You know, there might actually be something to this, Sunny,
but we need back-up.
I'm ready.
These girls covered some distance.
Yeah, 51 stops in four months.
All right, so the game is
we pull everything we can
from similar looking livestreams--
plants, fungi, animals,
whatever stands out--
cross-reference them against each other,
and then find where these girls are
by process of elimination.
Well, I'm one step ahead of you.
Based on Tess' bird clue, I did a deep-dive.
Check this out.
What am ?
It's called "Pacific Bleeding Heart."
It only grows on the West Coast,
and now check out my screen grab
of the September 10th livestream
from the Ozarks out East.
Oh, there it is.
What?
Pacific Bleeding Heart--
right there in the background.
Right, so they were definitely faking these livestreams
from the same place.
All right, let's go through all 51 stops,
flag any of them that look suspicious.
I'll pool them together,
run them through a data-finder,
and see if I can hone in on a location.
Oh...
this is like looking for a needle in a haystack,
when your haystack is the size of North America.
Okay, so you said Steller's Jay...
Okay,
and now we have the Pacific Bleeding Hearts
grow here...
and now we'll cross-reference them together.
Amazing.
Our haystack is now the size of North Dakota, eh?
I think I got something.
Yeah?
Mm-hmm.
Here's a livestream
of Olympic National Park
on September 4th.
Now, here's one of a campsite
north of Spokane
two weeks later.
The tree in the background
looks like it was split by lightning.
And?
That doesn't just happen
in two different places in two different time zones.
Okay.
That's the same tree.
So now we have a landmark.
I guess we're going on a road trip.
Really?
I love road trips!
♪ Sweet Caroline ♪
♪ Bum bum bum! ♪
♪ Good times never seemed so good ♪
♪ So good, so good ♪
♪ So good! ♪
Uh, is this even a road anymore?
What, did you take a wrong turn or something?
No, we're good, I think.
Well, these logging roads are remote.
We've narrowed the location of the tree
down to a three-kilometre radius.
Then we'll do a grid search.
Okay, so what's next?
I've got "Bohemian Rhapsody",
or "Dancing Queen"?
Ooh! A little Lady Gaga action?
"Poker Face" should do the trick.
Oh, man, I remember when that one came out.
God, I was still on foot patrol,
and it was everywhere on my rounds.
I was in my third year university.
That thing was playing on a loop in all the bars.
I was in high school.
That was our lunchroom jam.
S-Sunny--
can you... can you--
Hey, Matt?
C-can you--
- Matt? - I can't--
Tess?
Okay, we're clear.
High school?
But that song came out in...
- 2008. - Yeah.
Which would make her no older than 33.
And Jake's guy said that Sunny is 41.
No wonder she prefers the voice calls to the video.
Okay, let's not push this,
because she's gonna get her guard up,
but we need to clock
every bit of personal information
that she drops.
Let's get her back on.
I...
just wanna talk to you first.
Where are we at exactly?
Uh, you're asking me?
Hello.
Well, we kissed,
and I thought that would maybe change things,
but every time I try to get close,
you seem to pull back.
Okay, Matt, if this is about this morning,
you know, news flash,
I can't exactly read your body language.
Yeah, okay,
so if you could see,
then you'd be all over me?
We are in the middle of a potential homicide--
This has nothing to do with your vision, and you know it--
- This is your classic go-to-- - So excuse me very much--
- every time you try to avoid-- - for reading a romance--
Wow, are you serious right now?
I thought I saw something.
Where are you going?
Just hang tight!
Wh... Matt!
- No, no, no, no, no. - Matt!
No, no, no, no...
It's their van.
It's bad, Tess.
So, that's, uh...
that's what I was thinking about.
All right, thanks, man.
What a terrible way to go!
The cruiser is 10 steps ahead.
Ah! I hate the bush.
Yeah, really inconsiderate of them
to die out here.
Okay, so the body's been severely damaged by the fire,
but based on appearance,
and what remains of the I.D.,
it's likely Amelia Meadwell.
No signs of foul play yet.
Well, since when do vans blow up on impact?
There were canisters of fryer grease inside.
It just takes a spark.
The van had to have been travelling pretty fast
to get over that embankment, right?
Skyler was the one who usually drove--
Hey!
I don't think so, buddy.
Hey, no selfies, no texting!
So, body is being transported to Lindy,
it's the nearest small town,
and get this,
Amelia's father lives there.
That cannot be a coincidence.
Where do we stand with the local police there?
We've been asked to stay on,
given the, um, high-profile of the victim,
even though it's technically not our jurisdiction.
I'd sooner chew glass
than spend another minute out here.
All right, Jake,
how about you and I
talk to the dad--
- and get a statement? - Mm-hmm.
All right, I just need a minute.
Hey, Tess,
if you're looking for Matt,
he's 10 steps ahead.
Matt...
I gotta go to Lindy.
Are you good?
Yeah.
Just gotta head back for class.
Keep me posted.
...and we'll text you
anything that I have, so we can, uh...
I'll see you back there.
Okay. Yup.
Yeah.
Oh... I can't believe it.
It's her.
It's my baby girl.
Can you remember the last time you saw Amelia, Mr. Meadwell?
A month, maybe?
She used to call me every week.
Are you sure this is Amelia?
Her, uh...
lotus flower tattoo.
She got it on her 18th birthday.
It's supposed to represent her being the best that she can be.
We fought about it at first,
but I grew to love it.
Oh, and the scar on her shoulder,
she got that when she was 11.
A glass shelf collapsed
when she was reaching for the special plates
for my birthday dinner.
Do you have any idea what she was doing in the area?
Maybe she needed her dad's help.
I wish she and Skyler never met.
And why do you say that?
Amelia never gave a damn about clicks or likes
before Skyler.
Skyler just wanted to be a Kardashian.
You know, hungry for her moment in the spotlight,
and she dragged my daughter into a world she didn't belong.
Amelia was driving very fast when the van crashed.
Was that typical of her?
No.
Amelia was a timid driver.
She, uh, she used to joke that she was...
...born to be chauffeured.
Well, do you have any thoughts
on why she might have been speeding?
Amelia had a lot of stalkers.
Maybe one of them was following her.
He's not kidding.
Amelia had plenty of stalkers.
Any stand out to you?
Yes.
There was AmeliaLuv349,
this retired postal worker,
and then there's AmeliaMuseX,
this Wisconsin artist,
who has painted over a hundred pictures of her...
...and then there was somebody by the name of "The Cardinal",
who claims that she's gonna replace Skyler
as Amelia's real BFF,
and follow her to the end of the earth
on a red motorcycle.
Oh, man, you gotta love the internet.
Well, you know...
there are parts of it that are great.
You know, most of it is fake.
Do you know how old you sound right now?
Just because something is framed by a camera
doesn't make it not real.
Look, all I'm saying is it's hard to know
who to trust sometimes.
I know.
I'm sorry,
it's just that Amelia was this young, vibrant woman.
I just think we owe it to her
to follow every clue.
All right, we will.
Maybe I have gotten too cynical.
We've got a leak.
Word's out about the van discovery.
Does no one understand
the phrase "Keep a lid on it" anymore?
Well, cat's out of the bag anyways.
I just got word from the Auto Shop.
Techs took the van apart piece by piece.
The burn pattern doesn't match the point of impact.
Wait, so the fire wasn't caused by a spark from the crash?
How did all that grease go up in flames?
Kerosene.
What, like from a camping stove,
or a lamp?
Nothing like that in the van.
Someone doused it and lit a match.
Wait, you're talking about a homicide.
Or a suspicious death at the very least.
BOLO's out for Skyler Simon,
and the press is being notified.
I mean, whoever burned the van could be trying to hide
the physical evidence of the body.
Mm-hmm, burn is a good way
to hide a stab wound or bullet hole.
Body's being sent back to Vancouver.
Let Tess know.
You gotta to hear this.
I've got "Bohemian Rhapsody",
or "Dancing Queen,"
Ooh! A little Lady Gaga action?
God, you sneaky devil.
Now listen to this.
The key word is collaboration.
We need better synergy
with Sales, Development, and Finance...
Wait, who the hell is that?
Sunny Patel.
Pulled from a 2018 clip
at a marketing seminar
in New York.
But that is a completely different person.
Call from Jake Campbell.
Hey, Tess, it's me. What's up?
So there's been a break on Skymelia.
You need to get your ass down here.
Okay, um...
Hey, this is, uh, kind of a lot to ask, but...
do you mind driving me?
Sure.
Okay, you're upset.
What? How could you tell?
I literally said one syllable.
Is this about Jake?
This has nothing to do with Jake.
Okay, so it's about our talk in the car.
Let's just say that I would rather talk about
the elephant in the room
than pretend it doesn't exist.
All right, fair enough, but what you said
really caught me off guard.
Maybe that's part of the problem.
Okay, so now I have issues.
All right, let's go--
No, you know what, I'm just,
I'm gonna get an Uber.
You stay here and keep digging on fake Sunny.
The manhunt for Skyler
is now North America wide,
but nothing so far.
That's 'cause
she's more than likely a victim herself.
My guess is
we're looking at a double-homicide.
Do we have any update on the body?
So far, no signs of any knife wounds
or bullet holes,
but the full autopsy of a burn victim
takes a while.
You need to see this.
I just heard what happened, 'Meels.
You can't be gone!
This is live? Sure is.
All right, let's get a ping warrant
so we can geo-track her location.
I'm already on it.
Uniforms are on their way.
All right.
Looks like Skyler's gonna get her chance to talk.
She won't wanna livestream this one.
That's the new Holy Grail,
and Amelia wanted to quit.
Said she was emotionally exhausted,
but I showed up for her,
made some changes.
What kind of changes?
I found a way to do our livestreams
without all the travel.
You started faking your journey.
Well, Amelia wanted to be close to her dad,
so we set up in the woods north of Lindy,
and pretended.
You know that's funny,
'cause we talked to her dad,
and he didn't say anything about any recent visits.
Yeah, that's... that's on me.
Without real locations, we needed better content.
Gotta feed the algorithm, right?
What does that mean?
Gimmicks.
"Amelia tries roasted frog leg",
and "Campfire Rube Goldberg Machine".
Classics.
So, when was the last time you saw Amelia?
Saturday.
She wanted to drop in on her dad,
but she couldn't get her bit down.
I wouldn't let her leave until we nailed it.
So, we got into a fight,
and she got in the van and drove off.
Were you fighting a lot?
The last month or so, sure.
Man, this one time, she got so mad,
she threw her boots into the bush.
That was the pink boot that the Skymelia fans found
north of Vancouver, right?
You gotta love the viewers.
Yeah...
Right.
So you fought, and, uh, she left.
What happened after that?
I figured she'd come back in an hour or two.
After a day of filming,
my phone was dead, of course,
so come morning,
I bailed on our gear, and tried to hike back.
It took me another day and a half
to make it to the road,
then I waved down a trucker.
How did you find out what happened?
Trucker's radio.
I had to get online,
so I borrowed his phone and streamed my reaction.
For Amelia.
Our fans needed me, okay?
Very noble.
Did you also hear
that, uh, somebody
poured kerosene on the van after it crashed?
And you think that was me?
What better way to get 10 million followers, right--
We're--!
We were Skymelia.
People like me,
but they loved her.
Maybe too much.
Amelia's father said that she had some stalkers.
You know anything about that?
Some of our fans
are more enthusiastic than others,
that's all.
What does that mean?
Amelia got paranoid.
She started seeing people following her,
watching her from rooftops.
She even kept seeing this one motorcycle.
Did she say what colour it was?
Sure.
Red.
It's not the first time
I've heard about a red motorcycle.
Yeah, okay, here it is.
"The Cardinal".
Has over a hundred posts.
Promises to replace Skyler as Amelia's real BFF.
So there's this stalker,
calls herself "The Cardinal".
She fantasies about being Amelia's real BFF.
Okay, let's get that to Tech, see if they can track her down--
Nah, it's a waste of time.
Leo...
it is a lead.
It's conjecture.
That girl hikes a day and a half,
doesn't have a single scratch on her,
and livestreams the second she gets back?
Doesn't sound like a BFF in mourning, to me.
Okay, fair enough,
but this stalker has posted about Amelia
over a hundred times.
You don't think Skyler knows that?
She reads everything about herself,
and she's just feeding us what we want to hear,
as a distraction.
Speaking of Skyler,
she's agreed to cough up the co-ordinates
of her operation in the woods.
I need a couple of you
to process the scene for evidence.
I think I'll skip this assignment.
Still allergic to nature?
Guess that leaves you and me, huh?
Uh, yeah, gonna be like old times.
Are you going on a date with Jake?
You mean homicide investigation.
With a partner straight out of GQ.
Wear clean underwear.
The guy looks like he's done the Grouse Grind a few times.
How did she say it exactly?
I mean, it just came out,
like she wasn't even thinking about it.
"The Grouse Grind".
That's short for hiking Grouse Mountain,
something only the locals would know.
Yeah, exactly,
which suggests that she lived here before.
All right, look, let's figure out when,
and why she kept it from us.
Yeah, I've gotta head back up north,
but I'll send you whatever I find on her.
All right, still need a photo.
Can you hack into EyesUP?
Oh, I can, and I did.
The photo on file is of the real Sunny.
I would hack Fake Sunny's email,
but, uh, we don't have it.
Wait, wouldn't Fake Sunny still have to give EyesUP
an email address?
That would be fake, too.
Yeah, but it would be her main point of correspondence.
I mean, there has got to be a photo in there somewhere.
Yeah, well, we can't just call them up and ask.
They're not going to listen to us.
To us, no...
...but they might listen to Mia.
Great, thank you.
Yeah, uh, I'll let Jake know.
All right.
Hey.
Bennett just called.
He set us up with a couple of motel rooms
just north of Lindy.
Yeah, that's a good call.
There's no way we're gonna beat the daylight up here.
Yeah.
Better have a good restaurant up there.
Up here?
Hope you like gas station beef jerky.
Thank you so much for this, Mia.
Always up for sleuthing,
especially undercover.
Gives me a chance to roll out--
my Texas accent.
- No, no, no, no. - Oh, yeah!
It's important that they know it's you.
Ah, Ms. Moss, what a pleasure!
Do we finally have your endorsement?
Uh, no, not quite yet.
Although
one of your agents is up for the prestigious...
Moss Award
for their exemplary work
with the sight loss community.
Oh, that's wonderful!
To whom should I bestow the honour?
Oh, well, actually,
I was hoping that I could congratulate them myself.
So I was hoping you could give me
their contact details.
It's Sunny Patel.
I'll get right on that, Ms. Moss.
I still think
we should've gone with the Texas accent.
turns out
it's not a baby in the dumpster at all, it-it's a--
it was a burrito.
Yeah, it was, like, a large--
but an unusually large burrito.
I missed this.
Yeah, me too.
So how's your, uh... how's your pal, Matt?
Oh, Matt?
Uh...
Yeah, he's fine.
He... loves to communicate.
And that is a problem because...?
Oh, it really shouldn't be.
It just...
I don't know, I mean, why?
Why does it make me run screaming for the hills?
Well, maybe because you're Tess Avery.
- Tess Avery? - Yeah.
You say that like it's such a big thing.
Who is this Tess Avery?
This Tess Avery,
the infamous Tess Avery,
she is impulsive,
she grabs whatever she wants
with excruciating, terrifying,
- beautiful force sometimes. - Yeah?
She's opinionated,
to a fault sometimes.
She has a wonderful smile,
which she rarely uses,
could use more, frankly.
- Smiling? - Mm-hmm.
Blech. Smiling is overrated.
You remember this song?
Of course, I remember this song.
Yeah, this was our first year together as partners.
When, um...
we solved the McLennan murders, right?
Oh, man, it was also the year that we--
No, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah...
What?
We agreed never to talk about that.
Right, yeah.

Hello?
We have a face.
Mia pulled Sunny's fake email address
like an expert pickpocket.
There was tons of correspondence
between her and other agents,
including a screen shot that one of them sent
of a few of them on a zoom call,
and by process of elimination, boom,
there she was.
So this whole time she has been lying?
Yeah. Yeah, she has.
Now we need to figure out why.
By the time you get back,
I should have all the answers we need.
Okay.
Thank you. Thanks, Matt.
Bye.
You left out a few details there.
- I'll call him back. - No.
Yeah, let me call him back.
What were we thinking?
I don't think we were thinking.
No. - And it's overrated.
Jake...
Mm-hmm?
We work together.
This is wrong
on so many levels.
Mm...
Oh, it's that little treasure Leo.
Hmm, oh, hey,
coordinates for Skymelia's staged headquarters.
Okay, we should get going.
Yeah.
Let me have a shower.
Oh...
my.
No, Sunny, just...
help me find my shirt.
Okay, um...
give me a--a 360.
Hmm.
No, I can't find it.
Can you go wider?
Oh! Right there, yeah, bingo.
Um, just two steps forward.
Oh, higher...
on the fan.
It looks like you had fun.
No comment.
Oh, come on, we're not gonna talk about it?
Who's the lucky guy?
Oh!
My-- Oh...
Oh!
Oh, that's Jake!
He's, like, naked!
I'm just gonna sit down.
Okay, please,
enough with the running commentary.
But this is what we do.
We talk about it. Come on!
Well... not anymore.
Tess!
Okay, end of the road.
Wow, these girls were serious
about not being found.
"The woods are lovely, dark and deep."
Wow, I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that.
Call me the poet detective.
Okay, so to the left over here, that's...
looks like where they parked the van.
and I guess this is,
I don't know, like, the staging area.
This must be Skymelia HQ
You're right in the middle of it!
What else can you see?
Maybe give me a 360?
Anything?
Stop.
Right there.
Some dried up branches straight ahead, about 14 paces.
They look out of place.
Jake.
Where you going?
Come on, this way.
Careful, there's a branch!
Oh, jeez! Oh, wow.
You okay?
Uh, yeah, good, just...
What is that? Do you smell that?
No.
It smells like gasoline.
Skymelia ran on fryer grease, not gasoline.
Yeah, fair enough.
You know what, those are not van tracks.
Those are...
Motorcycle, I think?
The Cardinal.
Maybe Skyler was right.
Came from the north.
Tess...
Yeah?
Binoculars.
That could have been Amelia's stalker,
the one who calls goes by "The Cardinal".
Yeah, look, they...
A bunch of dead branches over here, Tess.
It's like they're trying to hide something, you know?
Like themselves,
or the bike they came in on.
I mean, if it is the red motorcycle,
it's gotta gas up somewhere, right?
Yeah...
No gas stations up there,
but we found a farmhouse
that gives food and lodging to foresters.
And?
The owner saw a red motorcycle.
Ooh...
Okay, I'm not gonna flex here, Leo.
Just tell me you got some CCTV footage.
Oh, no, that's way too remote,
but I'll do you one better.
The owner jots down plates
of hikers they think are in over their heads.
We traced one to a woman named Kara Calpakis.
Here's where it gets weird.
I sent you a video.
Don't you understand?
I love you, Amelia.
I'm your true BFF, not Skyler.
One day, you'll understand,
even if you don't right now.
Wait for me, Amelia,
I'm coming for you,
in this life or the next.
Okay, that's not creepy at all.
Were you guys able to track her down?
We made it all the way to her house,
but the neighbour said she left on a trip a week ago,
so we got a warrant for her cellphone.
This part is even creepier,
so brace yourselves, kids.
Turns out Kara Calpakis made several phone calls
after Amelia's body was found in the burnt-out van,
and they were all to one particular man.
Darcy Meadwell,
Amelia's father.
Anything?
She should have used warmer light tones
on her ring light.
I mean, did you ever see Kara before?
Is it possible that she was after Amelia?
We may have seen her at a gas station once,
but to me she was just a fan,
and fans validate our work.
Hey, uh, can I get a selfie with you?
This interview is over.
But my fans would get such a kick out of this.
You look just like a real detective.
So we just checked Darcy's house.
There's no sign of him anywhere.
Probably hanging out with his daughter's stalker.
I don't know,
I don't have Darcy pegged as a killer.
Yeah, then why the hell is he in contact
with a nut job like Kara Calpakis?
They did have a common enemy in Skyler.
I mean, he did express his resentment
that it took his daughter away.
They could have teamed up against her
and accidentally killed the wrong person.
Not buying that.
If he knew the stalker did it,
maybe he's planning to kill her.
We just got a ping from Kara's cell phone
off a tower not far from you.
It's near an old cabin that belongs to the Meadwells.
You need to get your asses over there now.
You got it.
This place is creepy.
Like, horror movie creepy.
Oh, hey, hey, Tess, Tess, Tess...
Yeah, what you got?
I think I'm looking at Amelia's pink boot, right?
What?
Can I help you, detectives?
You want to tell me what this is doing here?
It's not what you think.
Not what I think?
It's the other boot.
And why have you been in contact
with your daughter's stalker,
Kara Calpakis?
Is that her inside?
No, of course not! You have to understand,
I'd do anything for my daughter!
Kara!
But why?
It doesn't make sense.
Kara Calpakis, could you please step outside!
Jake...
Yeah?
I don't think it's her.
What are you talking about?
Darcy...
I know you're a good man,
but sometimes, a father loves his daughter so much,
he does the wrong things for the right reasons.
You know the DNA is going to catch up with both of you.
Amelia!
I know you're in there.
Dad?
You faked your own death.
You killed Kara.
No.
Or was it your father?
No, it was an accident.
Kara had been stalking me for months,
and Skyler didn't care.
She just pushed for more.
I just-- I just wanted out.
So, I, um...
I took Skyler's keys, and...
got in the van, and drove myself away.
I drove for an hour before realizing
that there was someone in the car with me.
And when I woke up, I didn't know...
I didn't know where I was.
I...
And then I saw her.
I didn't know what to do.
My cell was shattered,
I was confused,
and I'd...
I'd never seen a dead body before.
So I-I used Kara's cell,
and I called my dad, and he found me.
It was all my idea.
When I saw Kara was Amelia's size,
and had copied her lotus flower tattoo, I-I...
You saw the chance to save your daughter.
My, uh, daughter deserves to have her life back.
Please don't take my dad away.
He was just trying to protect me.
What happened to Kara's red bike?
I pushed it into the river,
and then we drove back
to where Amelia tossed her boots.
But there was only one.
Amelia is crying.
Darcy is putting his arm around her.
I think I have something in my eye.
I feel for you, Amelia, I do,
but Kara had a family, too,
and they deserve some closure.
I just wanted to escape the attention.
There's not much chance of that anymore.
Are you sure
that it's Sunny?
100%.
Then I need to confront her.
Are you sure that's a good idea?
She might take off.
She's an agoraphobe,
that much I believe at least.
She's not going anywhere.
When are you gonna tell her?
After I blow off some steam.
It takes a lot for me to trust someone...
That was a Level 5 security file.
I probably just clicked on the wrong file.
Everyone has at least two great loves
in their life.
Maybe Kye is next.
No, I had that once with someone.
What happened?
He died.
First,
as you all know by now,
Amelia Meadwell is alive,
although she and I parted ways.
Second, thanks to recent events,
I just got our ten-millionth follower,
so kisses for your support,
and third, "Skymelia" is done.
Today, we begin "The Skyler Express"!
Now let's see what happens
when we combine cola with scotch mints...
It's not gonna be the same...
I still can't believe what Amelia tried to pull.
Can you imagine faking your own death
to escape your life?
All that secrecy and deception?
Yeah, secrecy is right.
Is something wrong?
I know who you are.
Your real name,
it's Sunita Sharma...
...and you're wanted for murder.
