I'm Teresa Marcetta. And I'm Tom Musta.
The disappearance of pregnant Frederick

woman and her two children has captured
the nation's attention.

Shanann Watts and her two young
daughters haven't been seen in the last

days. We have live team coverage of this
case.

Jacqueline Allen is in the neighborhood
where there is an active investigation

underway right now. They seem like a
normal.

I am listening to them as they ask
neighbors, have you seen this woman? Do

know this woman? This is a very visible
effort on the part of Wendy to make sure

of that missing person.

We want to bring in Denver 7
investigative reporter, Chase Larson,

learning from top sources more about
this investigation and the husbands

involved.

Okay, so one thing that I just wanted to
say is you...

You're helping.

Like, you can't just preach at your
kids. You have to live it.

You have to live it. That's right. You
have to live it.

So take that leap of faith in yourself.

Take that leap of faith.

That leap of faith.

And just know that whatever it is in
your life that you want.

Whatever it is in your life that you
want.

If you just take that leap of faith in
yourself.

Wherever she is, I hope she's safe and
with the kids, but could she have taken

off? I don't know.

But if someone has her and she's not
safe, I want them back.

Like, that's where my head's at. Like,
if they're safe right now, like, they're

going to come back.

But if they're not safe, like, that's
the not knowing part. Like, if they're

safe.

Chris, this is Tammy Lee. These will be
given to you polygraphed today.

Chris, good to meet you.

Thanks. Likewise.

So, you know, I think this is the best
way forward. And when you're done here,

we'll figure out next steps.

Okay. Sounds like a plan.

Have a seat.

So... I just want you to feel confident
that if you had nothing to do with your

wife's disappearance, I will find that
out today.

The only way you can fail the test is if
you don't listen to my directions or

you choose to lie to me.

Understand? Yeah, I've never had a lie
detector done on me before.

Most people haven't. It's not a normal
thing that people go through. Yeah, no,

just have no idea what to expect.

That's normal.

Just so you know, we do this in all our
missing person cases, so don't think

we're just singling you out.

We always start from the inside and work
our way out.

We can tell the investigators, you know,
hey, we've cleared Chris. He's good to

go. You don't have to worry about him.

Okay.

Okay.

Obviously, if you had something to do
with your wife's disappearance, it would

be very stupid to come in and take a
polygraph today.

Exactly.

Of course.

Let's just start at the beginning.

Just treat me like someone who doesn't
know anything and catch me up on your

life with Shanann.

I like that shirt.

Wait, really?

Really.

Oh, God, really?

Really. Oh, it's pink. Does that mean
it's going to be a girl? No, we don't

know. That's what they talked about. Oh,
I know, I know.

God, oh, that is awesome, baby.

Really? That is, oh.

I guess when you want it to, it just
happens.

God, come here.

What? Hey, man.

What's the damage here?

Monitor's shot.

Run it by the office if you get a
chance. Nicky will take care of it.

Hey, uh, you missing something there?

No. Sure?

No.

Oh, my God.

Save my butt. That's what I'm here for.

I got to get this thing resized. Keep
flipping off. How far are you down now?

30 pounds.

No kidding.

That drive.

I can tell you, man, drive works. Like,
that's the meta burn.

I feel more focused. I have more energy.
Like, the pounds keep flying off.

My wife will get you on the program.

Seriously, all you have to do is say the
word. Yeah, right.

There's a convention this weekend at the
Devil Tree.

You should stop by.

I'm thinking about sleeping this
weekend, man.

Hey, uh, tell Shannon congrats on the
new kiddo.

Take her out. On me.

Gift cards.

Yeah. Thanks, man.

I'm really hoping for a boy.

Either way, you're a number.

30 is more than a few. It's lots.

And many.

So I've been with Drive since January,
and I've already earned two free trips.

Chris and I are going to go to Cancun
next year.

I'm loving my job.

I get to travel, and I'm helping people
to live healthier, happier

lives, including myself.

And I feel so blessed.

So what I want to say this morning is,
like, does your job

allow you to live your best life?

Because you deserve that.

Everybody does.

Just be happy.

Period. End of story.

And I'm going to be at the Doubletree.

I'm coming! Come and say hi, because I'm
going to be giving out free Strive

Starter Kits to the first 50 Strivers
who come.

And next week, I'm going to be in North
Carolina getting my Strive on. So come

and say hi. Have a good day. Bye.

Hello. Hello.

What are you thinking?

Three is good!

I'm excited.

Congratulations.

It's going to be great.

Come in. Is it just me, or is Chris
looking really good these days?

I know, right?

He feels so good, too. And he's been
working out every day, and he suddenly

a six -pack?

He's driving.

Oh, I have to show you this.

Look, this is an app.

That keeps track of all your credit card
charges in case your purse gets stolen.

Or your husband buys something he
shouldn't.

It's just easier if I can keep track of
everything.

Just saying.

How long are you going to North
Carolina?

Six weeks.

It'll be good because my parents are
there and the in -laws are there.

all help take care of the kids while I
do conference follow -ups and meet with

clients.

I might even be able to relax a little
bit.

I mean, not as much as Chris, but
something.

He's not going?

He'll be there in a couple of weeks. He
has to work.

He's going to get so bored in this house
all by himself.

Poor thing.

I need to make a Father's Day video for
Chris. Will you just press the red

button?

Thanks.

Go. Hi, Chris.

I just wanted to say that we are so
blessed to have you in our lives. And

so much for us.

And you take such good care of us.

And you're the reason that I was brave
enough to agree to number three.

So you're incredible. And we're really
lucky to have you in our lives.

Happy Father's Day.

You look so sexy.

Really?

Water. Water toast.

To a boy?

A boy.

Have you thought about memes?

Christopher Watts II?

You don't love it, okay?

Maybe we could name him after my dad.

Edward? Eddie.

Eddie?

I want him to have friends.

I want him to be liked.

I was thinking about, um, Nico.

Okay, yeah.

Yeah, it's awesome. I love it.

Nico Christopher Watts?

Nico Lee Watts?

Oh.

You ready for order?

Um, I'm gonna have two. Do you have any
kind of, like, grilled chicken

something? We have a grilled chicken
salad.

Let's have two of those. Love two.

Thank you.

Judith. Hi, Kevin. Hi, Judith.

They're so fun.

Oh, yeah, baby.

What rhymes with helicopter?

You know what? Let me help you.

There you go.

Bella.

Bella, Bill, come on.

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come
on, come on.

You do not want to miss this.

Okay, you girls remember the rules?

Yeah. No fighting and listen to Mommy.
That's right.

Pretty good.

Love you.

Daddy's going to miss you.

You told me, right? Yeah. Okay.

Love you.

You too.

Be good, girls.

Bye, Daddy.

We love you.

See you soon. Travel safe.

See you in a few weeks.

Well, it sounds like you two were very
happy.

We were, yeah. And then we weren't.

I mean, last time I spoke with Shan, she
wanted to separate.

Tell me about that.

You and Shanann have good jobs, a nice
house. The girls are adorable.

There's a baby on the way.

So what am I missing?

I...

You'd have to ask her.

Hey, Jim.

Safety office.

I'm cold.

Hey. Hi.

What can I do for you?

I'm easy.

Good, because if a former person asks me
about a replacement safety valve, I

might not cut back from lunch.

I'm serious. I'm just going to get in my
car and just drive.

Well... Not that it's fun today.

But I like you.

Glad you like me.

Don't let it get to your head.

Too late.

If you have any problems, give me a
call.

Thanks.

You're quitting.

What? Good for you.

Oh, no, I don't smoke.

I strive.

Is that like a religious thing?

No, it's like, I don't know, vitamins
and minerals helps your body get fit.

You look all right.

Just all right.

You look good.

Call me if you have any problems.

Or even if you don't.

Hey, Nikki.

It's Chris.

Chris Watt. The guy you said you liked?

Yeah.

Hey.

Well, it worked just fine. Thanks.

Sometimes I just want to get in my car
and say to hell with it and drive away

and never look back.

And go where?

I don't know. Figure it out when I get
there.

How about you?

Where'd you rather be?

You kidding?

Right here, right now.

No place I'd rather be.

Girls, I'd love this place.

Girl.

Daughters.

Bella and Cece.

Your dad.

Here.

That's Bella.

Cece's on the right.

And you're married.

Why don't you wear a ring? We're
separated.

Separated. We live in the same house,
but, like, I sleep in the basement,

just trying to sell the home, you know,
keep things cool for the kids. So, hey,

would I lie to you?

Would I lie to you?

What time am I picking you up on Friday?

Friday's my birthday.

You got plans?

Something was definitely up with Shan
when she went to North Carolina. I could

feel it.

Was she worried that you were apart for
so long?

Do you think she could have thought you
were maybe having an... Oh, no.

No, that's not me. Like, I'm not the
kind of guy that's like, oh, you know,

wife is out of town.

Let me see what other girl I can find.
I'm not like that. I respect my wife.

She respects me.

There's nothing that she could hold
back. Like, I am not the kind of guy

just sort of goes off and will sleep
with anyone.

No. Like, people know me.

That is not who I am.

Coming to you live from North

Carolina. Hi, Casey.

Hi, Laura.

So I just wanted to talk a little bit
today about mindfulness, and I wanted to

say that I'm really grateful for my
health.

A lot of you know this, but 10 years
ago, my hair started falling out, and I

getting tired all the time, and
eventually I was diagnosed with lupus.

I thought my life was over, but then I
discovered strife.

And I got my happy back.

Also, my husband, Chris.

I am so grateful for you, Chris.

You are the best, and I can't wait to
see what the future holds for us.

Hey, Boo.

Hey, Chris. How are you?

Hanging in there. How are the girls?

They're great.

They're having so much fun. Lots of
dance parties. Lots of hide and seek.

They still up?

Can I talk to them?

Hey, munchkins.

You guys being good?

No. Hey,

it's your bedtime, isn't it?

Why don't you guys sleep tight, do what
your mom says, and don't let the bedbugs

bite, okay? Good night, Daddy.

So tell me something good. How was work?

I'm out with the guys right now. I got
to run. I can't talk. Okay. Well, I love

you. I love you, too. I'll talk to you
soon.

Chris?

Happy birthday.

You didn't have to do that.

Nikki, your energy is insane. You heat
me up, you make me melt, and then you

cool me down like rain.

Happy birthday.

That may be the sweetest thing anyone's
ever said to me.

And he listens.

That's really sweet.

Thanks.

Do you feel that?

No, I do not.

Thank you. Thank you. Are you sure?

Yeah. Thank you very much.

I'll be right back.

Oh, you got shit all in your teeth. Get
out.

All right, all right, don't move.

My snack for later.

So were you guys communicating at all
while she was away?

We were talking and texting, but I could
feel that disconnect.

Our conversations just got shorter.

Our text messages were just less and
less, and it just wasn't as hot and

as it used to be, I guess.

So things weren't great between you two?

You know, that spark, I kept hoping it
would kind of fix itself.

But you know, it just wasn't the same.

So, how's Chris doing?

Um, I think he's really busy.

Mom, don't start.

I'm not starting. I just, it just seems
to me that you and a girl are out of

sight, out of mind.

Or he's really busy with work and
working out and Dieter and his friends.

Maybe.

Well, he has some of the most.

Beautiful beaches in the world.

What about Cuba?

What about the beaches?

And the cars.

Yeah, Garrett, I knew it.

You like cars?

Wildflowers.

Wildflowers. Yeah.

They don't need anything from anyone.

They grow wherever they want.

Beautiful and free.

That's awesome.

Hey, is there anything in that book
that's nearby, like in Colorado or

something?

Oh, White Sands.

Oh, everybody's been to White Sands.

You haven't been to White Sands. Wait,
you lived here 27 years and you've never

been to White Sands.

Are you judging me? Yes, I'm judging
you.

I'm gonna get some time off work and
we're gonna go.

Have you done this before?

What?

What's different?

Good to see you.

I've got something to show you. Oh,
great.

Oh, is this for the girl?

For the boy.

Wait, we don't know if it's a boy yet.

It's time for a boy.

Carry on the watch family name.

Oh, here it is.

Chris used to love this.

Thank you. That's cute. Thanks. Where
are the girls?

Swing set.

Hey, girls.

Grampy's here.

So how did you keep yourself busy while
they were away?

I was just being here, just working out,
going to work, you know, going on runs

and keeping up the house.

She's calling.

Shanann.

Come on. Let me see that one with you
turn around.

This one?

Huh? No, what is that? That's not a
pose.

It's not even. Okay, you should take it.
You're ruining the mood. Go.

I am.

Go.

Don't move.

Where am I going to go?

Hey.

I don't want the girls staying at your
parents' house while we're on the trip.

Yeah, so what do you want me to do about
it? I want you to call your dad right

now and tell him we're not going.

Okay?

Hello?

Chris, hello.

Can you hear me?

Yeah.

Honey, I don't feel good.

I'm so tired.

Um, are you okay?

Yeah. It doesn't really seem like you
want to be talking to me. Yeah, I'm

I have long days at work, you know.

Worn out.

Okay.

I'm going to get some rest.

Don't forget to eat dinner.

Oh, by the way, I got an alert from Visa
that there was a charge at a place

called The Wheelhouse.

That was me.

Yeah, why?

I don't want to nag you, but that's the
card we're trying to pay down, right?

Yeah, I remember. I'm sorry. I was out
with the guys and I forgot.

Hey, you tell the girls I love them and
give them a big old kiss for me, will

you? Okay.

Thank you.

What's that?

Company gift card.

You gave me so many, I might as well use
them.

That's nice.

I'm going to run upstairs real quick and
grab some clothes.

You okay?

Yeah, it's just you have this great
house and this perfect family. I don't

why you wouldn't want to try to work
things out with your wife.

I did, and we both did. It's just we're
two different people.

Well, then why aren't you divorced yet?

Because, I mean, it's expensive, first
of all. We're still trying to figure out

what we want to do with the house. It's
just, it's a lot.

Well, it's super neat.

It's like no one lives here.

That's Shanann.

It's her jam all day.

Okay.

Kids are cute.

That's Shanann, too.

Thank God.

No, the oldest.

What's her name? Bella.

She looks like you.

Yep. She's like your little mini -me.

What are you getting at?

Nothing, just... Divorce isn't easy.

No.

Yeah.

Nope.

So... So I don't want to be responsible
for destroying your family.

Oh, Nikki, no, no.

There's nothing to destroy.

It's over.

Nikki. Take me home.

Nikki. Hey, look, Nikki.

Hey, look, this is our... He's probably
just trying to adjust.

You know how men are. They panic at the
word baby.

Yeah. I don't know. He seemed so happy
before we left.

Sure he was. Honey, he just needs to
wrap his brain around it.

Listen, when he gets there, things will
go back to normal. It's just the way

marriage works.

Ups and downs, and it's just part of the
game.

Yeah, you're probably right.

I got you some time off this weekend.

For what?

You hear an echo?

Where are we camping?

I'm taking you to sleep.

Letting out how badly I needed them.

We both did.

And I was just going to get away, you
know?

Nikki.

Yeah?

I love you.

Do you mean that?

I mean that.

I love you.

I love you too.

You didn't text me back.

I thought something happened to you.

Sorry. I'll make it up to you next time
I see you.

I love you, boo.

You know that. All right, I'm trying to
give you your space, but I'm carrying

our third child, and I'm fighting with
two little kids all day, and I'm trying

to make money. You need to talk to me.

What is going on?

Nothing.

Like, nothing.

I'll make it up to you and the girls
next time I see you.

You know what? No.

I'm tired of begging for you to talk to
me. I'll just...

I'll see you on Tuesday.

Have a good flight.

Boo!

Hi. Hi.

Thanks for taking me out here.

Thanks for coming.

Could she have been seeing someone else?
Is that possible?

I don't know.

But if she is, like, I don't care. Like,
I wouldn't wonder who that could be.

But, you know, I'm fine. Just come back
and we'll talk about it later.

Were you guys having sex at all?

No.

When I got to North Carolina, it just
didn't feel the same.

What are you doing? Why are you doing
biting on me? I got you. I got you

Where's the other one?

They'll be fine. There's shade all over
the place. No, there's not shade.

It's sunny.

Mom, we have to get the girls ready.

Relax, honey. They'll be fine. Put it on
with the kids. It's a two -and -a -half

-hour drive to Myrtle Beach. There is
plenty of time. We have to check into

hotel by 3 p .m. You'll get there later.

So get to the booth early because these
striped starter packs go fast.

Bye. Thank you.

Hey.

Hey, can we talk?

Are you mad at me?

Because they didn't let the kids stay at
your parents' house?

Things are just a little off with us
right now.

But it's fine. It's whatever.

That's all?

Yeah. That's it. It's fine.

No.

No, that's not all. What's... Girls,
stay close, please. What's happening?

I feel like... We've been, like, happier
alone or something.

No, no. You know I love you and the
girls.

Chris, the past five weeks have been
awful for me.

I just miss you.

I miss, you know, smelling you in the
sheets and talking to you and

seeing you with the girls. And I just,
I'm glad I'll miss you.

Now you're here and it's like you're not
there.

What's going on?

You didn't ask me about the baby.

And you're not...

Talking about the girl. I'm just
worried.

And I'm... I'm spotting.

These first 12 weeks, they're scary.

And I just... Do you want

this baby? I mean...

Oh, my God.

What's happening?

You're the one that wanted to try for a
third. What is happening?

I like their family the way it was,
okay? And now we're having three. It's

like a lot of responsibility, right?

If you're done, I need to know. I'm not
done, Shane. I'm not done, no. Look, I

just don't know where my head is at.

I love you. I love the kids. I just need
some time.

Yeah. Guys, let's get to the car.

Something definitely came to a head in
North Carolina.

It was clear, like, Shan did not want to
be with me anymore.

Do you know if she told anybody that?
Like, her mom or anybody?

She said she didn't, but I wanted to
stay married.

She was distant and cold.

I don't know what I did.

Your wife keeps taking all these photos
of you and the girls at the beach.

Shanann just puts that stuff online for
work or whatever. It's like her PR.

Well, you guys seem really happy.

Seem. You sure you two aren't trying to
work things out?

Nikki, it is over.

We're done.

I love you.

I missed you.

Hey.

Come look.

How about this place?

You need to roll over to see it.

Are you and the girls?

Two bedrooms, two bathrooms?

What do you think?

I think, uh...

I would do you right here, right?

And then I'd pull these curtains back
and I'd do you right there.

Tom. And then we would move all the
furniture, right? And then I'd do you

this corner right here. Chris, no, you
need a plan.

It's going to be expensive and you need
to start saving.

I'm not working on it.

to be at the Doubletree with my girl
Amber in Scottsdale, Arizona this

We're going to be giving out these free
Strive t -shirts and I'm very excited

about our brand new Strive water bottles
to the first 50 Strivers who swing by

the booth. So please come check us out.
See you soon.

I thought you'd be happy it was a boy.

I am happy. You were an hour late.

I'm sorry. I just had some things I
needed to think about.

What did you need to think about?

Look, we have been married eight years.

We have an anniversary coming up. We
have two beautiful kids.

I don't want to be the guy that just...

Blows all of that up.

What do you want?

Start over, Shan. Just forget about the
last six weeks.

Okay?

Really?

Yeah, they have not been good.

That is mostly my fault.

Look, hey, maybe when you're back from
this trip, we could just do something.

You know, just us. We'd take a trip.

We'd get Amber to babysit the kids or
something.

Really?

Yeah. That'd be perfect.

Come here.

August

10th.

That's when Shanann flew out with Amber.

And she was really mad when she left. I
don't know why. I didn't even have any

time to think about it. I was looking
after both the girls.

Just relax. Take a breath.

We're about to get started.

Lean forward for me a little bit.

I need you to put your hand above your
head like you're diving into a pool. If

these ever feel too tight, just let me
know, all right? Now, this is a cardio

cuff, same kind you'd find in any
doctor's office.

We find we get a better reading if we
put it on the calf.

All right, relax your legs.

Try to remain still.

And lastly, these are the finger plates.
Put your hand there, please.

And spread your fingers for me.

In layman's terms, these are just going
to monitor your sweat gland activity.

Is there anything else you want to share
with me before we begin?

No. Let's do it. All right.

The coolest thing about this is that
right now there's only one person in

room who knows the truth.

And in about five minutes, there's going
to be two of us.

So, that's the coolest part.

Are you ready to begin?

Yep.

Regarding Shanann's disappearance, do
you intend to answer all the questions

truthfully?

Yes.

Is your first name Christopher?

Yes.

Before 2018, did you ever lose your
temper with someone you loved?

No.

Do you know where Shanann is now?

Hi, Chris. I miss you.

No.

Did you physically cause Shanann's
disappearance?

No. Are you lying about the last time
you saw Shanann?

No.

All right.

This portion of the test is finished.
You can relax.

Awesome.

How'd I do?

You must be Amber. Yeah, hi.

So what's going on?

So my friend Shanann and I were on a
business trip this weekend.

I just dropped her off at 2 a .m. this
morning. All right.

She's 15 weeks pregnant.

And she felt really bad all weekend. She
wasn't eating or drinking normally.

So she had a doctor's appointment this
morning at 9.

I asked if she needed me to take her
because she has two little girls.

She's very distraught because, well, she
and her husband were having issues, but

supposedly they're separating. But I
didn't know that until I talked to him

morning when I called him because I was
like, have you talked to Shanann or seen

her since you left for work?

You know, I can't get a hold of her. I
have called her. I have texted. And her

car's in the garage. Her shoes that she
wears, like, literally every single day

are at the front door.

I called the doctor's office, and she
didn't show up for her appointment.

The husband's on the way?

Yeah, he says he's 45 minutes out, but
he said that a long time ago. I don't

know what's taking so long.

You can't just send her?

No. I need permission from the
homeowner.

Doesn't change anything that she's
pregnant?

No. The grandparents could have taken
her and the kids somewhere.

Her phone could be dead.

If I saw her laying on the ground, it'd
be different, but I just can't violate

the homeowner's rights.

Oh, okay.

All right, that'll work.

Oh, that's him. That's Chris. That's
Chris. Chuck.

Is this the only car she would drive?

Yep.

Yeah, car seats are here.

You mind if I come in, Chris?

Sure.

Can we take a look upstairs?

I just want to make sure she isn't
passed out somewhere.

Yeah.

I

found

her phone.

Her phone's here? Yeah. Her phone's
here.

It was under that pillow there, I think.

It doesn't go anywhere without her
phone. Do you know her passcode? It used

be 2386, but now it's six digits.

The baby's due date.

Could she have gone to the pool?

To the pool?

There's a little rec center down there.

Are you going through any marital
issues?

We're separated.

She didn't tell me that.

She didn't tell me. Have you filed yet?

No, we're trying to figure out what
we're doing with the house.

How's that going so far? Civil?

Yeah, well, civil.

What's that?

Found her wedding ring.

Told you she wanted to leave me.

All right. Well, maybe we should just
head next door then.

What for?

Any motion event that'll happen on this
street, I got it.

5 -17.

This is him. Yeah, I'm just loading up
my stuff. I got coolers and tools for my

toolbox, computer, you know, lunchbox,
book bag, stuff.

Yeah, usually, you know, I'll park
around the side here, but, yeah, there's

much stuff to load up, it's just easier
to pull up, you know, just back up, so.

Any sign of Shanann leaving the house?

No.

Is there anything you want to do with
this, or?

Well,

Detective Baumhover just showed up, so
he'll probably want to talk to you.

check and see if there's been any
suspicious bank activity or... Yeah.

All right. Well, I... Yeah.

I have no inclination about where
they're at.

And I've exhausted, like, every friend
that I know of and, like, every friend I

have has called friends that Shanann has
that, like, maybe I don't know about.

And it's just, like... Like, vanished.
Like, she's just...

She just, like, I came home last night
and it was like a ghost town.

Like, nobody was home. She wasn't home.
The kids weren't home. Like, I have no

idea where they went.

And it's just like, it doesn't even feel
real right now.

You know, this just feels like, you
know, a nightmare that I can't wake up

Like, I don't even, I don't know if you
want to, if you have any more, like.

Your wife, Shanann, is 15 weeks
pregnant. I know this may be a tough

but did you guys get into an argument
before she left or anything?

It wasn't like an argument. I mean, we
had an emotional conversation.

It's not mine.

Stop lying.

Where were you on Monday?

There was a leak at the site.

Where are you now?

Cece's bed.

Where are the sheep?

I've had to put them in the wash. They
were sinking.

I gotta go.

because we wanted to talk to you about
your test results.

Chris, I'm going to go ahead and sit
next to you. Do you mind scooting down?

I'm a little claustrophobic.

So

it

was completely clear in the testing that
you were not being honest, but you

already know that. I did not lie.

I didn't lie.

I don't know anything other than what I
already told you. It's not even an

option because you failed the polygraph.
So I know you're being deceptive.

And it's normal.

People make mistakes.

And initially you're going to go, I
don't know what you're talking about. I

didn't do anything.

It's like if you say to your kids, did
you write on the wall?

And they go, no. And you're like, well,
I can see that you have marker on your

hands. And they're like, oh, okay.

eventually you're going to tell the
truth.

And this is your eventually tell the
truth moment.

So, what happened?

I don't know. I don't know where they're
at. Like, I want them to come home. But

you know they're not coming home. I
don't know. You know they're not. I hope

they do come home. Chris, Chris, but
you're lying about something else here

today, and we need to talk about that.

i cheated on her i cheated on her and
i'm not proud of that i i like she

accused me of it i denied it like look
she was pregnant

i feel horrible about that but i did not
hurt her i cheated on

her i hurt her emotionally and i feel
terrible but like i fell in love with

That is God's honest truth.

Chris, in the interview today, you
weren't asked anything about infidelity,

why do you think you failed the test?

In the back of my head, I was holding
back.

I knew I was holding back. That's why I
failed.

It's okay, Chris.

We knew when we first had you in, we
knew all about it.

Nikki. She called.

Told us everything.

That's why we didn't ask you in the
test.

Because we already knew the answer.

Mr. Watts?

I'm Tammy.

I'm the polygrapher.

I just wanted to check on you and see if
you needed anything.

No.

How's he holding up?

Surprisingly well, given the
circumstances.

Good. I know he just wants to get back
out there.

We both do. Find Shanann and the girls.

Not bad.

I just can't believe that she'd do this
to us, you know?

Oh, you think she got mad and ran off?

You don't know Shanann.

Well... She seems nice enough.

Everyone seems nice.

Having an affair is not a crime.

Won't you please help us find your
babies?

I don't know where they are.

I don't know what else I can tell you. I
don't know where they are.

Okay.

Here's what I think.

I think that your life should be amazing
right now.

I mean, you and Shanann are making good
money.

You got a great family.

Let's be honest, you're looking pretty
fit.

Everything should be perfect, but it's
not.

And the reason that it's not is because
of Shanann.

You know what, Chris? You have been in
here for hours, and you have not shed

one tear over your girl. Not one. I
don't know what you want me to say.

Don't look into that. It's not like I
don't love my kids. Just explain that to

me, okay?

Because if I lose my kid in the
supermarket for a minute, I am

I'm also...

Panic. And you're telling me that you're
having these emotional conversations

with your wife, and you haven't cried
once, not once, for your baby girls who

are missing.

I want to find them, like those girls
are my life. Help us find your baby

Look at them, Chris.

Chris, did Shanann do something to them?
No.

Did Shanann do something? Maybe it was
an accident? Something happened in the

house? And maybe you felt... Did she do
something to them and then you

did something to her?

No.

Did you have to cover something up for
Shanann?

Chris, people make mistakes.

And it's what they do after those
mistakes that makes them who they are.

So what I think is that maybe Shanann
did something, and I

think you're the kind of guy who would
feel like they had to cover it up for

her. I did not kill my kids. Tell us.
Tell us what happened, Chris.

He flew all the way across the country
and I just talked to him. Absolutely.

Chris,

your dad is not going to stop loving you
no matter what you tell him.

You're his son.

She freaked out, and I go upstairs, and
she... They were blue.

And I... We

know you

drove out to the work site early that
morning.

So we figure Shanann and the girls are
out there.

I don't want to leave them there another
minute.

When was this taken? Oh, it's today.

Where's Shanann, Chris?

He was sprawled out.

And that's when I saw Shan on the baby
monitor on top of Bella.

And I ran in there.

She was on top of her strength. Yeah.

When I get in there, Bella's just not
moving.

So I pulled Shanann off and I got lost.

After you argued, did you have any
inkling that Shanann...

Do something like this? Oh, no.

No. We love those girls.

My family members told me that she was
unstable, but I didn't think she was

capable of anything like this.

Okay, so then what happened?

I loaded the bodies into the truck and
drove to the

work site.

I'm very chilling.

And where are the girls?

I wasn't thinking.

I took them out. I put each one of them
into a tank.

In the tanks?

What's in them?

A mixture of oil and water.

Remember when you first sat down here, I
told you I was going to get to the

truth. It's my job.

This is the truth.

I think we're close, but we're not quite
there.

I didn't hurt those girls.

They found the bodies.

So what happens when it comes back and
the evidence is again with you?

Well, sure.

I'm 100 % sure.

But Christian, you don't seem like a
good mom. I'm a pretty good dad.

When you saw her choking your babies,
did you ever think to call an ambulance?

You can imagine, we're pretty cynical
about these things, right? And it really

does look like...

You wanted to have a new life and the
only way to get it was to kill the kids

before Shanann got home. If I come into
a room and my kid's been decapitated, I

still call the ambulance. It just
doesn't, yeah, it doesn't make any

doesn't add up.

So, you're either a monster who

says, I want this hot girlfriend.

So I'll just kill everybody and hope it
turns out.

Or something else.

I'm not a monster.

For what?

Stand up.

What are you thinking now, Chris?

Can you face the wall here?

Then I let everyone down.

Arms straight out to the side.

My friends, my family, everyone.

Place me, please.

Arms up.

Emerging details in the disappearance of
the pregnant Colorado mother and her

two little girls.

Investigators now believe they have
found the bodies of Shanann and her

children.

To the outside world, the Watts family
seemed perfect.

On social media, Shanann Watts appeared
to have the ideal life, showing photos

of family vacations and business trips.

My husband, I am so grateful for you,
Chris.

I love you, and I can't wait to see what
the future holds

for us.

Just after pleading for their return,
her husband, Chris Watts, appeared in

court, reportedly confessing to killing
her and disposing of the bodies of all

three.

Friends say that Chris always played the
part of a loving husband and devoted

father. It's hard to make sense of this
all, and I think the question on

everyone's mind is why.

Bet you weren't expecting to see us.

You look different.

You just make me shave it all off these
days.

Looks good.

Thanks. So how you doing?

Pretty good. How about you guys?

Yeah.

So let's just...

Put some fears aside.

I mean, the last time we talked was a
different situation, but now your case

closed.

We're not interested in getting any more
charges.

Tammy and I have been talking, and
everyone that we've spoken to says the

thing. They say we didn't see it coming.

Every single one.

And so we thought you might...

Have some things you want to get off
your chest and things you might want to

talk about.

You want the truth.

Well, it may bring peace of mind to you
and everyone involved.

Shanann's family, especially.

I love Shanann.

I think you must like it.

She just, she made me feel like I
couldn't do anything wrong.

Like I mattered, like I was important,
you know. She'd ask my opinions.

The whole time Shanann was in North
Carolina, I was with Nikki.

The whole time, I never slept a single
night at home.

Just like I had blinders on.

So, what happened that morning?

Shan. Shan.

We need to talk.

What?

It's the middle of the night there.

Shan, we need to talk now.

Now. Shan, now.

Ow! What are you doing?

That didn't feel right.

What? Ow!

Sex with your wife didn't feel right?
What are you talking about? It felt like

test, Shan.

You're crazy.

Get off me. This is going to hurt the
baby.

Get off of me. Get off. Get off. Get off
of me.

Say it.

Say it.

Say it.

Say it.

There's someone else.

What's your name?

Nikki.

I knew it.

I knew.

Last night with the credit card charges,
that was you guys, right?

You're disgusting!

I'm sorry, Shan. I don't know what got
into me.

When did this start?

When you went to North Carolina.

You're pathetic.

You're a pathetic man.

Shan, I don't know what I want.

Well, I do.

I want a divorce.

Does that make you happy?

Does that make it easier for you?

Can we be civil? There's nothing
civilized about cheating on your wife,

asshole! Who do you think you are,
seriously?

No! You don't get to do this to me! You
don't get to do this to our girl, to our

son! No!

No!

You make our lives hell. I'm gonna make
your life so much worse. Shan, don't.

All our friends are gonna know. Shh.

Shut up. I'm gonna tell everybody
exactly who you are and what you did.

I'm gonna tell your parents.

You're gonna have no friends.

Between bowel support and child support,
you're not going to have two pennies to

rub together.

And if you think I'm going to let our
daughters hang out with that whore,

crazy. No way.

This is my house now. I want you out of
here. Go. I want you to leave. I want

you to leave. Go. Get out. Get out. I
want you out.

Get out. You shut up.

I was just angry. I'd been mad since
July and I must have had something to do

with it. I just felt like this fuse had
been burning and it just burned to its

end.

I couldn't let go.

I wanted to. I tried to. I couldn't.

Like somebody had their arms around me.
I just, I couldn't.

I woke up that morning, it's like the
seed was just planted in me, and that

what was going to happen that day.

I didn't have any control over it.

I thought my whole life would just
disappear in front of my eyes.

I still couldn't let go.

And then she was gone.

Where were the girls?

Everything's going to be okay.

The girls, you mentioned that Cece was
first. Did you use a blanket

to cover her face?

There was a blanket in my hand.

Where was Bella?

She was in the truck. She didn't know
what was going on. She was just sitting

there right next to us.

After Cece was gone, you... I took her
and I...

I put her in a tank.

And I went back to the truck.

And Bella asked me... Is the same thing
that happened to Cece

gonna happen to me?

I told her yes.

Just like a horrible person, I just put
the

blanket over her head.

And I did the same thing to her.

She kept saying, Daddy, no.

Daddy, no. Those are the last words she
said.

I keep hearing her say that every day.

I'd do anything to take that back.

But I can't.

I just can't.

No, you can't.

Well, we got the truth.

Something's still eating at you. What is
it?

No defensive wounds.

Shanann didn't struggle.

She didn't fight him.

The entire time, she thought he was
going to let go.

Right up till the very end.

Maybe we do only see what we want to,
but if that's the case, then we never

really know anyone.
