The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not
want.

He maketh me to lie down in his baskets.

He leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of
the shadow of death, I will fear no

evil, for thou art with me.

Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me.

In the presence of my enemy.

Thou anointest my head with oil. My cup
runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow
me all the days of my life. And I will

dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not
want.

He maketh me to lie down. The Lord is my
shepherd.

He maketh me to lie down. He restores my
soul.

He leadeth me, yea, though I walk
through the valley of the shelter of my

I will fear no evil, for thou art with

Thank you.

supposed to be at the courthouse?
They're reading the Valdez verdict?

What time is it? It's 10 .30.

Oh, the alarm.

Okay, am I in trouble?

Well, Bernie's at the courthouse
covering for you, but you better get

there. Yeah.

Coming.

And sentencing will take place

on Tuesday the 16th.

The state expects the maximum sentence.

Mr.

Clark.

Yes. That could mean the death penalty.
Do you not find that kind of punishment

harsh? Well, of course it's harsh.

But this is going to send a clear
message to those who believe that they

disregard the laws of our community.

And when do you proceed with the trials
of the other two defendants?

Within the next two weeks.

Now you'll have to excuse me. Assistant
District Attorney Warren Penn here. I'll

be glad to answer any further questions.

How do you feel about being called a
mongoose?

Fine by me.

As long as I get the snake.

Hey, sorry I'm late. I overslept. We'll
talk about it later. Let's catch him

before he gets away.

Bitch!

Ernie, you old dog. What are you doing
here?

Oh, you got a big case coming up.

One down, two to go. And just in time
for the election.

It's got nothing to do with that. Well,
that's not what your campaign manager

told you.

Just kidding me. This is my niece, Nikki
Barrington. Nikki Barrington, this is

Mitchell Clark, our district attorney
and local mongoose.

How do you do? Nice to meet you.

Nikki grew up around here. She'd just
come home from New York City.

Welcome back to Marshall Falls.

We could use some new blood around here
to liven up Bernie's stodgy old paper.

So what do you think?

Well, Bernie's stodgy old paper doesn't
endorse politicians.

You know, Bernie, that's what I like
about you.

You are one of the few truly righteous
people left in the world.

He doesn't know how right he is.

You want to come in?

Yeah, sure, come on.

What is it?

R .J. sent me a package last night and
wants me to cover a story for him.

How's he doing?

Not good.

Well, that's too bad.

Yeah.

What's the story?

There's this guy over at Mid -Valley
who's scheduled to be executed next

Tyler Nash.

R .J. doesn't want you to cover the
execution, does he?

He's convinced that the guy is innocent.

Okay. You go ahead. Just make sure it
doesn't interfere with your work on this

paper.

Mickey!

Mickey!

Hey, I'm in the dance floor.

Hold on here.

Coming.

What the hell are you doing out here?

Well, I've been knocking at the front
door forever.

Oh,

this is totally unacceptable.

I think I look stunning.

Really?

Oh, so what happened here last night,
huh?

Wild research party. Very exciting.

Yeah? Well, you forgot to sign off on
the net, and I have been trying to call

you all morning. Oh, sorry.

Did you forget our seminar this morning?

I did, but I've got to go to Mid -Valley
Penitentiary today.

Oh, Nikki, they finally busted you.

You're very funny in the mornings.

Ooh, now this is worth working late for.

That is my Mid -Valley lunch date.

What?

RJ asked me to interview him, do a
story.

Huh.

Having trouble sleeping lately.

The dry glass of warm milk, anything but
those.

My doctor prescribed them. The dreams
again.

Yeah, since I moved back.

So move.

Sell the place.

I like the place.

Yeah, but too many bad memories.

Oh, come on, Liza. I'll get over it.

Yeah, before or after you get addicted
to those.

Honey, how long have you known me?

Oh, ever since second grade when Jimmy
Lane stole your notebook and I had to

beat him up to get it back.

Still worried?

As a matter of fact.

God, you're so annoying. Please make me
some coffee. I'm taking a shower.

I love you, too.

So, Wayne wants to ask you out.

Oh, please.

He's a nice guy.

He's so nice. Why don't you go out with
him?

Well, because I'm not the stepmom type.
And besides, he likes you.

Liza, you know something? You're
obsessed.

Why are you so compelled to set me up
all the time?

I just want my best friend happy.

I don't need a man to be happy. I like
my independence and I like having

of my life.

I'd like to be out of control just one
last time before I start getting hot

flashes.

Thanks for the coffee, by the way.

You are a goddess.

Debbie, you know who I am if you
remember this poem.

Passions drift amongst the silken flesh.

Beads of sweat drip slowly down sunken
and surrendered crevices, giving breath

to conscious rapture. Nikki.

It's the mid -valley guy again.

So what's he in for?

Bad poetry?

Murder.

Oh.

Well, for someone who likes to be in
control, I think you picked an

person to interview.

I didn't pick him.

R .J. did, okay?

Is that over there please?

Where's Mr. Malone?

He asked me to come in his place.

Who are you?

I'm Nikki Barrington.

I'm also a journalist.

He said he'd help me.

He said he would write a story.

What does that mean?

It means I'm going to get to know you
over the next few weeks.

What do you get out of it?

The chance to write a piece that might
convince the state to change its views

capital punishment.

So it doesn't matter whether I'm
innocent or not.

I'm not here to pass judgment.

So what do I get out of it? I mean, you
don't have a story unless I'm executed.

Am I right?

King.

So who exactly is this Debbie?

She's my missing witness.

No, I don't know her last name, and if
she comes forward, I would get an

Well, this was front -page news.

If she exists, why didn't she just come
forward? Well, she exists.

Maybe she's scared.

Maybe she moved.

Maybe she doesn't care.

The DA convinced the jury you lied about
her.

You're beautiful.

Let's just stick to business, all right?
Hey, I just meant it as a compliment.

Tell me about your lawyer.

Nothing to say.

Look, I don't have time to go a hundred
miles to get answers like that, all

right? What are you getting mad at all?
I'm not getting mad. I just, I don't

have time to play games. I'm not playing
games.

My attorney was court appointed.

He told me I should throw myself at the
mercy of the court. I did.

Here I am.

A full moon kindled the white beats in
front of a local bar in Marco Falls the

night Cecilia Flowers decided to take a
peaceful midnight stroll.

But she was not alone.

Someone had followed her out of the blue
moon, stalked her, and waited for the

perfect moment to attack.

The moment she was most vulnerable.

The moment she was totally alone.

Her killer sprang upon his prey like a
black cat.

He took her young life with the slash of
his blade against the soft flesh of her

neck.

Cruel, cold -blooded, no sympathy, the
animal drank her fear away.

What happened to the three flowers that
night was inhuman.

No one should have to submit to that
kind of terror.

Marshall Falls, beware.

There's a boogeyman out there.

So you raced cars?

Stock cars.

Win much?

I won my share.

Okay, I'm sure this is the last thing
you want to do again, but you want to

me what happened?

I was passing through Marshall Falls.

I had a couple of days before a race
near Portland. It got canceled, so I

decided to stay on.

Several people at the Blue Moon saw you
there with Cecilia Flower.

That's right.

She was sitting at the bar, so was I. We
had a couple of drinks.

That's all.

We left at the same time, but we both
went our separate ways.

And then you went to this other bar
where you picked up this Debbie.

Yes.

Deeks.

Deeks.

Okay, so how come no one at Deeks
remembered seeing you there?

I don't know.

I guess we got out of there pretty
quick.

Then we drove to the beach.

Did you sleep with her?

No.

We talked for about two or three hours.

Then what happened?

Then I took her back to Deeks, where she
picked up her car.

That's the last I ever saw of her.

Tyler, why did you run when you knew the
police were after you?

I honestly don't know.

Today, Mitchell Clark, county
prosecutor, makes his closing arguments

Tyler Nash trial.

He will most likely focus on the fact
that Nash had no alibi and remind the

that an eyewitness placed Nash at the
seat of a young

Marshall Falls resident.

Jury deliberations are expected to be
short.

We'll continue coverage of this story
once the jury has reached its verdict.

And now, back to our newsroom.

Ted?

Dr. Henry, please report to ICU.

Dr. Henry, please report to ICU.

Dr. Bowers? Yes.

Hi, hi. I'm Nikki Barrington from the
Democrat and Sentinel.

Ah, is this important ICU?

Yes, yes it is.

Thank you so much for taking the time.

Doctor, five years ago, you performed an
autopsy on Cecilia Flowers, the murder

victim. Flowers.

Flowers, yes.

You might recall that Tyler Nash was
convicted of that crime. In your

you concluded that Ms. Flowers' throat
was slashed from right to left. You

me to recall a murder that took place
over five years ago?

I read the court transcripts, Doctor.
You stated that the killer slashed Ms.

Flowers from behind.

Using a right -to -left motion, and
because of that, he had to be left

Yeah, so... All right, well, isn't it
possible that the killer could have

slashed her from the front?

I don't know.

Possible. Well, if the murderer killed
her from the front, using your logic,

he'd be right -handed, isn't that so?

Now, why wasn't that mentioned in your
testimony?

What is your point, Miss Barrington?

Tyler Nash is scheduled to be executed
next month. He might be innocent.

All I did was give my professional
opinion and answer the questions asked

Now...

You'll have to excuse me. I'm late and
I've got a lot of work to do.

Yes, of course.

Thank you for your time.

Now, why didn't your attorney challenge
the Flowers autopsy report?

Tyler, you're left -handed.

What if the murderer slashed the Flowers
girl from the front?

My new attorney used that argument as
part of an appeal for my retrial.

All right.

Okay, another witness for the
prosecution.

roger walker so that he saw you with the
victim in your truck at the blue moon

just before she was killed he lied okay
why do you say that because it didn't

happen that's why how could he see
something that didn't happen sometimes

witnesses have completely different
accounts of the same event do you always

that do what that little thing with your
hair

How can you be so cavalier?

I'm not.

I just miss the simple things.

Yes, Roger Walker, please.

Mr. Walker is in Houston on business.

When is he expected back?

The end of next week. Is there someone
else that can help you? Is there a

where I can reach him? I'm sorry, we're
not permitted to give out that

information, but if you leave your name
and number, I'll relay the message.

No, thanks. I'll just call back.

Nikki, you got a minute?

Sure.

What's up?

I want you to go to Olympia and cover
the state congressional runoff.

What?

Well, can't Wainer Liza do it? Why?

I'm not up on my state politics.

What's going on, Nicky?

It's that thing I'm doing for R .J.
Well, that thing wasn't supposed to

interfere with your work on the paper. I
know.

You better sit down, Nicky.

This came in on the wire this morning. I
wasn't going to give it to you until

after work, but...

Newsman R .J. Malone

died early this morning.

Oh, my God.

You okay?

Yeah.

Oh, heck, Wayne is probably tired of
working on that fast food toy scandal

anyway. I heard his kids are giving him
hell about it.

You seem tense.

Oh, well, um... I just had a bad couple
of days. You know, I haven't slept well.

What's going on?

Hey, come on.

I've been honest with you from the
beginning.

You've got to be honest with me.

R .J. Malone died.

Cancer? You two were close.

Hey, did this Debbie ever tell you where
she lived?

No. Did you ever ask her? No.

Nikki?

What's going on?

Come on, you're in agony here. What's
happening?

for 10 years, you know?

I mean, I knew it was coming, but... He
was like a... He was like a

father to me.

I'm sorry.

What was your father like?

My... My dad, uh... He spent most of his

life...

Beating the hell out of me and my mom.

Is your mother living?

No.

Yours?

No.

You know, when my mom died, I truly knew
that I was

alone in the world.

Things wouldn't come easy.

Yeah, I guess I know what that feels
like.

I got something for you.

Drop a pebble in the lake and watch the
waters part until the rings reach every

shore and touch some other's heart.

I stand near the water's edge praying
for a sign that somewhere across the

of time there awaits a heart like mine.

You wrote this for me?

You'll like it.

in case I'm not here and you want
somebody to talk to.

There were no traces of blood, hair, or
fiber from the victim found in his

truck, on his clothes, or in his motel
room. And there was only one eyewitness,

Roger Walker, and his testimony was
circumstantial.

Why? Because Tyler Nash said so?

Oh, please.

How about this? You cannot condemn a man
to death no matter what he did. It's

barbaric.

Are you falling for this guy?

No. Good, because I wouldn't want to
have to identify your body just because

this guy turns you on. What is that?

Well, what? Can't you admit that you
have hormones just like the rest of us?

Okay, you've hurt me enough. I'm going
to go solo.

And besides, I don't believe his story
about the missing witness.

I mean, anyone can be found.

Only if they want to be. Yeah, well,
what if he killed this Debbie, too?

Okay, and what if this Debbie was in on
it? What if the whole thing was a setup?

I'm trying to sound like a soap opera to
me.

Liza, be serious for one minute. What if
he's innocent?

Everyone on death row is innocent.
Hasn't anyone ever told you?

I am so sorry. I... I... Oh, please.

Forgive me, Nikki.

Sometimes I say the stupidest things.

Hello?

Hello?

Look, we got five minutes before they
pull the plug here.

Well, that doesn't seem fair.

I hear music.

Yes.

That sounds nice.

Tell me about your home.

You have five minutes and you want to
make small talk?

You know what?

Actually, that's exactly what I'd like.

The fall is about a hundred miles north
of you.

I'm surrounded by trees in the middle of
nowhere.

That's nice.

Tell me, um, what's inside your home?

A lot of knickknacks, you know, with the
cozy big fireplace.

Wow.

So tell me about you.

Not much to say.

Oh, sure there is.

What do you want to know?

I want to know everything.

I want to know everything in five
minutes. Yeah, it's a start.

I used to live in New York.

So why did you move back?

At least in Marshall Falls.

Everybody knows who you are.

Oh, boy.

That is not always a good thing.

Anyway, R .J. used to say that writing

doesn't come from big cities. Writing
comes from the heart.

Like love.

Tyler.

What do you see?

I see your loneliness.

I wanna see you.

Wow. You look beautiful.

What's that?

I drew this for you.

You

really

did this?

Yeah. Does it look like your place?

Yeah.

Yeah, it's amazing.

Is there anything you can't do?

Yeah.

Touch you.

Hold you close.

I'm gonna die in two weeks.

You just happened to be in town on the
night of the murder?

I saw you on that trip too, remember?

Nick, you don't know anything about this
guy.

He is not a killer.

Believe me, I know this trial inside and
out. Clark went after Tyler like a

mongoose after a snake.

Nick, you're putting me as well as
yourself in a very compromising legal

position. I know you're about to commit
perjury. That makes me an accessory.

We could both face serious jail time.

Liza, no one will ever know that you
know. You have my word.

Oh, that's great. Just great.

I thought you were my friend. Don't do
this. I am your friend. I am your best

friend, which is why I'm trying to talk
some sense into you. This makes perfect

sense to me. I have never been so sure
of anything in my life.

I don't know.

Okay, Liza.

This conversation never took place.

Now it's either that or you turn me in.

Judge Robertson just ordered a stay of
execution for Tyler Nash.

For what reason? Seems his missing
witness finally showed up.

Motion for a new trial has been granted.
Schedule 4011.

Nicky Barrington. Works at the Democrat
and Sentinel.

Bernie's niece.

Give me everything you can find on her.

School, friends, sex life, addictions.

Gotcha.

Tyler, I can do this.

I can.

I know every aspect of her trial. I was
in town visiting my mother when the

murder took place, and there is nothing
about this, Debbie, that couldn't apply

to me. It's perfect. I don't buy it,
okay? You don't know what you're getting

yourself into. I can't let you... No,
no, no. Look.

All right, there is no law against my
visiting you. All of our conversations

have been private. And besides that,
Tanaki already deposed me and filed

motion to retry. So I'm sorry, but there
is no turning back.

Ms. Barrington, how did you come to meet
Tyler Nash?

I was living in New York.

Every year during August, I came back
home to Marshall Falls to see my mother.

heard about this place, called Deeks.

I was there that night.

What happened at Deeks?

Shortly after the band started, Tyler
Nash offered to buy me a drink.

Now, have you ever met the man before?

No.

He told you his name at this time?

Yes.

What did you tell him your name was?

Debbie.

Debbie.

Why did you do that?

I didn't want to give out my real name
to a total stranger.

I understand.

Please, go on.

It was pretty crowded there.

Mr. Nash couldn't get a waitress.

So then he suggested we leave and go
back to his hotel room.

And did you go? Of course not. Not with
a man I just met.

What did you do then?

We went to the beach and talked.

For how long?

A couple of hours.

Now, during the time that you were
parked, did you see anyone?

Just a few people coming and going from
the bar across the way. The blue moon?

Yeah. What happened when you finished
talking?

He drove me back to Deeks. I got in my
car and I drove home.

Ms. Barrington, these events took place
over five years ago.

Why have you not come forward until now?

Well, like I said, I didn't live here at
the time.

I returned to New York never having
heard about the murder case or Mr.

indictment. And what made you come
forward at this time?

My mother recently passed away.

I was packing some of her things for
storage with old newspaper, and I came

across one of Mr. Nash's personal ads,
and it was then that I realized he was

looking for me.

Now, the murder took place between 9 p
.m. and 11 p .m. on the night of the

20th. Can you confirm to this court that
you were in fact with Tyler Nash during

that time?

Yes. Yes, I can.

I have no further questions, Your Honor.

Mr. Clark.

Thank you, Your Honor.

You're a journalist, is that correct?

Yes.

Therefore, one can assume that you are
street smart, that you understand the

ways of the world?

I suppose.

So can you explain why it is that you
refused to give your real name, but you

agreed to park on an isolated beach
with, in your own words, a total

I don't know.

I suppose it's not the smartest thing
I've ever done.

When exactly were you parked, Miss
Barrington? Was it 9 .30 to 11 .30, 10

12 .30? When was it?

I believe it was 10 to midnight.

Two hours. It's a long time.

Did you have sex with him?

No. Objection, Your Honor.

Irrelevant. Sustained. The jury will
disregard the question and the answer.

What did you do all that time?

We talked.

About what?

Poetry, art, music, life

You

recognize this girl?

The mutilated body of Cecilia Flowers
Pretty gruesome, I agree

Have you seen her before?

No

She was 21 years old.

Objection. There is no connection
between the victim and Ms. Barrington.

Honor, there most certainly is a
connection. Ms. Barrington is trying to

the conviction of a killer.

Objection, Your Honor.

Objection sustained.

Mr. Clark, stick to straightforward and
relevant questions.

Ms. Barrington, I'm a little puzzled by
something.

We asked for a sample of your hair.

We checked it against the trace hairs we
found in Mr. Nash's truck.

and on his clothes, and it was
conclusive. Your hair did not match.

Objection. The victim's hair did not
match either.

Objection sustained.

The jury will disregard the
prosecution's last statement.

And there's the matter of your father.

Isn't it true that he, like Mr. Nash,
was on death row?

that he, in fact, was executed at Mid
-Valley State Penitentiary in 1967 for

murder of one J. Hollis Meyer.

Objection, Your Honor. This is
completely irrelevant.

Your Honor, it is directly relevant. It
speaks to Miss Barrington's motive, a

very powerful motive for wanting to get
back at the justice system for taking

her father's life.

Hang on.

Uncle Bernie, hi.

Can I come in?

Yeah.

Hey, I was just about to make myself an
egg salad sandwich. You want one?

Not unless you want to watch me sky
write all over your ceiling.

What? Gas.

Oh.

You haven't really changed this place
very much, have you?

No, until Mama played.

You ever get the feeling that she's
still with us?

Always.

And that she must be feeling like I am
right now.

Confused.

Confused? Why are you doing this, Nikki?

You weren't in Marshall Falls when the
Flowers murder happened.

That's when you drove your mom to
Portland to start her breast cancer

treatments. You called me every day,
remember?

So, why are you putting yourself in this
position?

What position?

Perjury. I'm not.

Nicky.

Don't sell my intelligence.

This is not your concern.

Yes, it is. One, I am your uncle. Two,
it implicates the paper. There is

that ties you or the paper or the staff
to this.

I know what you're doing.

How can I claim to have any integrity
and not expose that?

Can't you see what they're doing to him?
It's just like what happened to my

father. Your father was found guilty.
And he was innocent.

Dammit, Nicky, no, he wasn't.

How can you say that?

Have you ever bothered to investigate
the facts surrounding your father's

Or are you afraid to find out something?

You got to grow up, Nicky.

He was guilty.

I knew it. Your mother knew it. She just
didn't have the heart to tell you about

it. Your father had a temper.

And one day he just snapped and he
killed his boss in cold blood. No, he

Please,

don't throw your life away for this guy.

We talked to Mitch.

We told him Miss Nash coerced you into
lying for him.

I can't.

responsibility to the people in this
community the people who work for me if

proceed with this charade tomorrow you
can't come back to the paper

Roger Walker, do you solemnly swear to
tell the whole truth and nothing but the

truth before this court?

I do.

Mr. Walker, in the previous trial of
Tyler Nash, you testified that you were

the Blue Moon on the night of August the
20th. That is correct.

And that at approximately 10 .30 p .m.
you left the bar and you saw a man and a

woman seated in a parked pickup truck.
Is that correct?

Yes, sir.

You went on to identify the man in that
truck as the defendant, Tyler Nash.

That is correct.

Now I'm going to show you a photograph,
Mr. Walker.

I want you to examine it very carefully.

Was that the woman that you saw seated
next to Tyler Nash in that pickup truck

on the night of August 20th? No, sir, it
is not. Are you sure?

Positive.

I've just shown Mr. Walker a photo of
Nikki Berrington.

Mr. Walker, is this the woman that you
saw seated in the pickup next to Mr.

Nash? Objection, Your Honor. Leading the
witness.

Sustained. Rephrase the question,
Counselor.

Do you recognize this woman?

Yes, sir. This is the woman that was
seated in the truck.

Let the record show that Mr. Walker has
clearly identified Cecilia Flowers.

as the woman who was sitting in Tyler
Nash's truck on the night of the murder.

I have no further questions, Your Honor.

Your witness.

Mr. Walker.

What do you do for a living, sir? I'm a
computer programmer. I create networks,

websites, things of that nature.

Would you consider your powers of
observation to be above average?

Yes, I would say above average. Now...

We're supposed to accept your testimony.

Testimony that has to be based not only
on your powers of observation, but on

your memory as well.

I'm sure you'll agree it is very
important to be certain.

Yes, I understand.

Good.

Now, where was the pickup truck parked?

It was in the parking lot next to the
bar.

But was it parked, let's say, under a
street lamp against a building under a

tree?

Uh...

It was just parked in the lot. Quite a
few cars there.

Mr. Walker, you don't sound terribly
convincing.

Does that mean you're not sure?

I remember it was quite cloudy that
night.

Let the record show that the night of
August 20th was clear and with a full

moon.

Mr. Walker.

Did you stop and look into the pickup
truck as you passed by? I looked in and

I... Did you stop, sir? I don't remember
if I stopped, but I did get a good

look.

Your Honor, I ask permission to bring
Nicky Barrington before this witness.

Objection, Your Honor. On what grounds,
Counselor? Mr. Walker has already

clearly established that Nicky
Barrington was not in Tyler Nash's truck

night. Your Honor, is the prosecution
now going to try my case as well?

Your objection is overruled, Mr. Clark.

You may continue, Mr. Tanaki, but this
better be leading somewhere.

Thank you, Your Honor, it will.

The court calls Nicky Barrington.

Miss Barrington, would you kindly step
forward and stand before the jury and

witness?

Auburn hair, shoulder length, brown
eyes, 5 feet 7 inches tall,

125 pounds.

Mr. Walker, was I just describing
Cecilia Flowers or Nicky Barrington?

Um, well...

What happened to your above -average
powers of observation?

Could it be, sir, that you don't know?
Because I am describing both Cecilia

Flowers and Nicky Barrington.

Mr. Walker, your testimony convinced a
jury beyond a reasonable doubt to

my client, Tyler Nash, to be sentenced
to death at the hands of the state.

Has the jury reached a verdict?

We have, Your Honor. How do you find?

In the matter of the people versus Tyler
Nash, we find the defendant not guilty.

The court is gratified that justice has
ultimately been done in this case.

Mr. Nash, you are released from custody.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, thank
you very much.

This court is adjourned.

Wait up. Wait up.

You're a free man.

There's just some papers you have to
sign before you leave if you'd go with

bailiff. Yeah. Okay.

Thanks, Counselor.

Thank you.

Oh, come on, Steve. You were great. You
freed an innocent man today.

I hope you're right.

Excuse me.

This is great.

This is really nice.

Look at that. Isn't that pretty?

Yeah, it is.

Hey.

You okay?

I forgot what it was like.

What?

To be free.

You know something?

You're safe now.

Was it you?

Left behind, was your heart really all
in my mind?

Turn around,

please don't leave. I have found, found
someone to be

me.

Isn't love hard to know?

Even fools can tell when to let go.

Every year, but I've found, found
someone to believe.

With every setting sun, I have begun to
wonder if there's anyone

who feels the way you do.

I lied, I alibied that I was only
passing by.

Deep inside, I always searched for you.

You don't know.

What will last? What is all this dust?

Turn around.

We don't...

It's down on 7th. Oh, yeah? It ain't
driving, but it's a start.

You're thinking about going back to
racing, aren't you?

It's the only thing I know how to do.

Pretty remote out here, you know.

It's a good idea.

What do you want?

Five minutes of your time.

Sorry.

You're racing down a dark stretch of
highway with no lights on.

Nice metaphor.

You're in my way.

Look what hell of an act you and Tanaki
put on.

Isn't this called harassment?

No, I'm just having a conversation.

It's a free country last I checked. In
fact, anyone can say anything you should

know. I'm afraid I don't know what
you're talking about.

Oh, I think you do.

May I go now?

Nobody's stopping you.

Now, don't tucker yourself out, darling.
Save some energy for me.

Got you.

Come here.

I'm writing a tune.

How do you like that guitar?

Man.

This is an absolute beauty.

Where did you get it?

Belonged to my father.

Oh, my God. I'm so sorry. No, no, no.
It's okay.

Are you sure? Yeah.

Play.

Thanks. Okay.

Talk to me now, is it fine?

You're playing right -handed.

Yeah, that's how I learned.

Walk with me now, is it fine?

Walk with me now, is it walk down the
fire of furnace?

You get Nash's racing itinerary for
Florida?

He was there approximately three months
before he was arrested.

Why are we looking into this?

There's an unresolved murder down there
similar to the Flowers case.

Mitch, that case is over.

No, it's not.

At the time of the Florida murder, Nash
just happened to be racing at Daytona

Beach. Mitch, that's got to be a couple
hundred miles from where the murder took

place. I need to know if the race was
before or after the murder.

I just think we should crop it about
here.

Unless you run it vertically.

Ah, you're right.

Shows more of his character.

That's a scratch on the negative. He's a
slumlord. Remember, he doesn't have any

character.

It's an unresolved murder near
Tallahassee, Florida.

Happened before Nash came to Marshall
Falls.

So?

So, he just happened to be there around
the same time.

Shouldn't you be out campaigning? I hear
boats are scarce around here.

Bernie, your niece is playing with fire.

If that were true, what do you suppose
that I could do about it?

Convince her to come and see me.

I've got some new information that might
change her opinion about Mr.

Nash.

This one's on me.

Our tax dollars at work.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

I just didn't hear you sneak up on me.

I didn't sneak up on you. I just came to
ask if you wanted to go to town for

lunch.

Yeah.

Sure, just give me a minute, okay?

Have you been to Florida?

Every winter.

Why?

Daytona Beach?

Sure.

Racing season.

Mitchell Clark spoke to Liza and my
uncle. He's trying to tie you to a

there. God, why doesn't that surprise
me?

Is he getting to you?

No.

Are you sure?

Hi. Do you guys know what you want?

Yeah, I'll have the pasta special for
you.

I'm going to have a cheeseburger and a
fry. They

took

five years of my life. What more do they
want?

I mean, I... You can't keep blaming the
world for what happened to

you.

You're right.

It's just...

I wish it was that easy.

I haven't held anything back. I've never
done that before.

Nikki.

I would never, ever hurt you.

You two got a lot of nerve showing up
here.

Cecilia Flowers was a friend of mine.

You know what?

Let's just get out of here.

If you want to hold us any longer, I'd
like to call my lawyer. Otherwise, let's

go now.

Your boyfriend put those guys in the
hospital.

Those guys started it, and there's a
room full of witnesses who'll testify to

that.

Testify? You'd know all about that,
wouldn't you?

My phone call?

Hello? Nikki?

Mitchell Clark.

I'm hanging up.

Does the name Peg O 'Neill mean anything
to you?

No. Well, what if I told you this woman
claims to have been Tyler's girlfriend

at the same time as you were visiting
him in prison?

If you want more, meet me at Lago 3 o
'clock this afternoon.

Who's that on the phone?

Um, the paper.

They want me to clean up my desk.

So, Nash was charming other women at the
same time as he was charming you.

As you can see by this, the guy's a
regular Shakespeare.

He worked on Peg O 'Neill.

I stand near the water's edge praying
for a sign that somewhere across the

of time there awaits a heart like mine.

You wrote this for me?

So you dig through other people's
garbage.

Nash used you, Nicky.

He's still using you.

Do you love anyone?

What?

Do you love anyone?

Is there anything in your life that you
care about more than your career?

I care about Justin.

I care about truth.

No, you don't.

You care about winning.

That's your truth.

They called your worth.

They said you weren't there today.

Yeah, I had some thinking to do.

Thinking about what?

Peg O 'Neill.

Peg O 'Neill?

Peg O 'Neill responded to an ad a couple
of months prior to you and I ever

becoming involved.

And we wrote to each other a few times.

Nikki, you can't believe that you were
the only one that I communicated with.

What do you mean I can't believe that I
was the only one? What am I, a mind

reader, Tyler?

You know that Clark had a file full of
that stuff that you sent to Peg O

including that sweet poem that you wrote
to me. You led me to believe that that

poem was written for me.

And you even tried to get her to be your
alibi, but she wouldn't do it. She

refused. And what did I do? I believed
you.

I lied for you. I stood up in front of
all those people in the courtroom, and I

risked everything for you.

Were you here all night?

I

lied

to you.

With Peg O 'Neil, I know you feel like I
used you.

I've never had anyone in my life care
for me the way you do.

And I'm trying to learn how to deal with
that.

I love you, Nikki.

I love you with all my heart. And I want
to show you in a way that you know and

that you can understand. It's just...
It's just I need a little help

to learn how.

Just a minute.

Good morning.

What the hell is going on here? You have
no right.

This little piece of paper gives us
every right to search Wando.

Why? A young girl was murdered last
night on the beach near Canaan Point.

Canaan Point is three hours away.

I told him I was here last night.

Oh, but of course you were.

Look what I found.

I have a permit for that. Check it out.

How many more women are going to die
because of him?

Because of you?

What is it anyway? What's he got over
you?

Mitch. Just a minute, Sam.

I really need to speak with you.

Let him go.

You should put this where your boyfriend
can't find it.

Only Tom Nash.

Where were you that night?

I was out driving.

Clark thinks that I killed that girl.
Apparently you do too.

Running away isn't going to solve
anything. It's just going to make

worse. I'm not going back to jail.

This is exactly what they want you to
do.

Don't do this. Did you see that I have
no choice?

Vicki, come with me.

What? If we leave now, we can be in
Canada in less than two hours. Come on.

is crazy.

God, every time there's a crime within
100 miles of here, Clark is going to be

all over me. I have no intention of
waiting for him to come back, and he

come back. But he's got nothing on you.

That didn't stop him last time. If you
run now, everyone's going to be

that you're guilty.

Are you coming or not?

No.

No, not like this.

I really wish you wouldn't do this. Come
on.

Pack your stuff.

What? Pack!

Who the hell do you think you're talking
to?

I said pack.

Yeah, hey, it's Nikki for Liza.

All right, then let me speak to my
uncle.

Yes, it's urgent.

All right. Okay, would you just call him
that? What are you doing?

I'm not going with you.

Oh, I get it.

The second I'm out of here, you're on
the phone to Clark.

Come on, stop it. Hey!

Tyler, that's enough.

Hey!

I still think you should call the cops.

I can't.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I know.

Liza, what is wrong with me?

You fell in love. I mean, I'm a
reasonably intelligent woman. How could

stupid? No, no.

Naive is more like it.

Will you ever forgive me for what I put
you through?

You've always been there for me.

Always.

It's just my turn now.

Thanks.

You know, with our luck, maybe we should
just give up on men.

Okay. Bad suggestion.

I really appreciate you letting me stay
at your place for once. Are you kidding?

It's going to be like old times. You
know, sleepovers, bummer camp.

Cheap white wine.

Oh, no.

What?

I left my purse at the house, my credit
cards, my driver's license. Everything

is in that purse. It's all right. We'll
get it in the morning. I don't want to

go back.

Hey, don't worry.

All right?

No one's going to mess with me.

Don't feel good about this. Just make it
quick, okay?

Oh, don't worry about it.

Oh, my God.

You know, I don't know if this was such
a good idea. Maybe we should just go.

Oh, we'll be fine.

All right. Help me find my bag. Sure.

And look, I know you think I'm paranoid,
okay?

What?

Don't start.

My cell phone is gone.

Oh, you probably left it in the house.
No, it was right here. I know it.

neighbor's house, okay? But it's only
about a quarter of a mile down the road.

We can use the phone there.

Liza.

Liza, come on. I really want to get out
of here, okay?

It's not funny.

Stop it.

It's all right, Nick.

I knew you weren't there that night.

Oh, God.

Oh, God.

Oh, please.

Because I took care of the real witness.

Get out of here.

Go to the car.

Get out of here.

Don't do... Don't do this.

Oh, but I want to. Ty, don't worry. I'm
not going to leave you.

I said go.

Besides, they already know who I am.

You see, I kind of slipped up the other
night at Canaan Point.

Don't.

I'm going to join you.

Goodbye, Liza.

I love you.
