Hey, kids, do you know what time it is?

- What time is it?
- What time is it?

It's time to say... Aubrey?

Aubrey, honey?

Aubrey?

Aubrey?

Aubrey?

Aubrey!

Aubrey!

Sierra?

Hi. Colter Shaw.

Thank you for coming.

You helped my friend Liz.
She gave me your number.

I didn't know what else to do.

You can get me up to speed.

Yeah, okay.

My daughter Aubrey
went missing last year.

December 10th.

I woke up and she was just gone.

There was blood on
the ground. No answer.

No body, nothing.

I had a look at the case.

Well, then you know.

I don't judge.

Thank you for that.

That was taken a week
before she went missing.

She wore that dress everywhere.

She wouldn't even let me wash it.

You want to show me what you found?

Yeah.

I took the trash out
yesterday morning, and...

and it was just there.

You were lead suspect at the time?

That's why, when I found it, I called you

before the police.

Look, they think I did
something to Aubrey

and tried to hide it.

And I had no way to
prove my innocence.

The police report said
that you had been drinking

pretty heavily the night she disappeared.

Yeah. Yeah, I was... drunk.

Passed out on the couch that night.

- The blood on the ground?
- The police tested it.

- It was Aubrey's.
- Okay.

Any idea how it got there?

I broke a bottle.

She must've cut herself on the glass.

But I don't know.

I-I've been over that
night a thousand times,

and... and it's all just a blank.

Like a lot of my nights were back then.

Police have their theories?

A lot.

Look, I know I should
burn in hell for how selfish

I was, but... I swear to god, I've changed.

I'm-I'm ten months sober now.

That's good.

No mention of the
father on the police report.

That's right.

He died of an overdose
before Aubrey was born.

Who do you think might've
put the dress there?

I don't know.

Any other suspects?

The police looked at everything.

They talked to everyone I knew.

They found nothing, and
they let the whole town think

I had something to do with it.

If they had any evidence,
they would have charged you.

Look, whoever put that dress up there

might know where Aubrey is.

Year's a long time.

I know what the odds are.

But I've tried everything to find her.

I've... I've even gone to a psychic once.

I can't give up.

I have to believe that she's
still out there somewhere.

You know?

Will you help me find her?

I'll help you.

We have to call the police.

We have to tell them what you found.

It'll be much worse if
this comes out later.

I know.

So I'll call them, tell them the truth.

They're gonna turn your
house into a crime scene.

You'll be arrested for the
murder of your daughter.

They won't charge you right away,

they'll question you.

That'll give me time to find
out who put the dress here.

Okay, if that's what we have to do.

I'm gonna help you through this, okay?

I'll do everything I can.

- Hey there.
- Hey.

Tyson west, lead detective on the case.

You're the one who, called this in?

Colter Shaw.

And what's your connection to Sierra?

She hired me to find her daughter.

- Some lawyer put you up to this?
- No.

- No?
- She found the dress,

she thinks there might
be somebody out there

that knows something about
her daughter's whereabouts.

Whereabouts.

It's more likely than not
you're gonna find a body.

Well, let's hope not.

Yeah.

Okay, and she hired you to look into it?

Right, with the understanding
that there would be

a police investigation.

This is Arthur poness,

the original detective on Aubrey's case.

- Hi.
- Nice to meet you.

Detective west brought
me in to consult on this one.

Retired, but this was my case.

Terrible thing.

Sierra told me about the investigation.

Funny how this dress just appears now

- after all this time.
- Neighbors across

the street haven't seen
anyone here except Sierra.

Well, if you're suggesting that it's her,

I-I don't think so.

- Doesn't make any sense.
- Well, people do strange things

when they're living with guilt.

I've known Sierra since high school.

She's always loved
attention and got a lot of it

when Aubrey first went
missing, but now it's drying up.

You questioned her during
the original investigation.

No other suspects.

No other suspects.

You got any fingerprints back here,

anything at all linking her to the dress?

Nothing so far.

Look, I don't want to believe

a mother would kill her daughter either,

but it is what it is.

Well, maybe it's not that simple.

Yeah, okay.

Well, Mr. Shaw, we
appreciate you calling this in,

but we have a suspect
we need to question.

All right, I'm headed back to the station.

Don't let Tyson rub you the wrong way.

He's young.

He'll learn that it doesn't matter

who helps get you to the truth

as long as you get there.

I get it.

Walk you through what I'm seeing?

- Suppose I could hear you out.
- Okay.

Got a smudge right here.

Somebody jumped the fence.

Could be anytime.

- Look at this.
- Okay, bike tracks.

Again, not uncommon.

Tracks are fresh, though, aren't they?

Looks like he came in from
here, laid the bike down.

And then kicked themselves
over the fence, right?

You're thinking whoever was on that bike

- is the one that planted the dress.
- Could be.

All right, I'll give west a call.

It's his show. Don't want to step on toes,

- know what I mean?
- Yeah, got it.

What's happening, colter?

- Hey, need a favor.
- Of course.

Always ready to punch
in the clock for you.

- What's up?
- Trying to find out

who was in the alley behind.

Sierra's house the night before last.

I got bike tracks coming
in. Looks like the bike

was laid down and then rolled back out.

Staring at a security camera

across the street. Can you access it?

One sec.

All right, got your location.

I see the security camera.

Let me sync you up.

- All right.
- Scanning through the footage.

Wait, wait, ho... go back.

Right there.

What the...?

Is that a kid?

Looks like it.

Is this like some kind of sick prank

or something? Yo, what ever

happened to, like, ding-dong ditch?

He knows something.

I can't get an ID with that hoodie on.

And he's keeping his head down.

There's a logo on it.

Can you figure out what it is?

Yeah.

Captain calabash?

It's a restaurant.

Here, I'm sending you the address now.

Thanks, Randy. I'm
on my way there now.

Tyson.

Detective west.

Where were you last night?

I was at an aa meeting,
came home and went to bed.

You're wasting your
time investigating me.

Well, I have to establish a timeline.

Of what?

Me putting that dress out
there and turning myself in?

Why would I do that?

I don't know, maybe you
had an attack of conscience.

I've seen it before in other cases.

You should be out there
trying to find my daughter.

You recognize this?

Why do you have my personal stuff?

Just answer the question.

It's my workbook for the 12 steps.

It's part of my recovery.

Yeah, well, here's the
part that caught my eye.

You wrote,

"on nights like these, I
can finally admit to myself

it was my selfish actions
that killed Aubrey."

You want to tell me what that means?

'Cause it sure sounds like a confession.

That journal's private.

It's part of the program,
reflecting on responsibility.

And I see that.

I didn't murder my daughter.

No, you just killed her, like you wrote.

I was a bad mom.

Okay? That's-that's no secret.

- No.
- And I'm trying to own that.

And every day I live
with the guilt of knowing

that if I hadn't have been
passed out drunk that night,

she'd still be here. That's what I meant.

And you're a son of a bitch
for twisting my words like this.

Yeah, well, it doesn't take much twisting.

I think that's enough.

Excuse me, who...?

Reenie Greene, Ms. Allen's attorney.

I'd like a private
consultation with my client

before any further
questioning, thank you.

That means you're done here.

Thanks.

Okay.

So, it's okay. I'm friends with colter.

He said that you may need a hand.

But it's gonna be a little bit

more complicated than that, okay?

- What do you mean?
- Well, with the dress

and that workbook, they have
enough to charge you now.

- That's what I was afraid of.
- I know.

But I am preparing a motion
to suppress the workbook

from evidence, okay?

It's hearsay and completely
taken out of context.

Okay.

So what do I do now?

Now, you wait

for colter to find out
who planted that dress.

- Hi.
- Hey.

- What can I get you?
- Yeah, I was wondering,

if you know who that is.

A kid in his teens.

Spencer.

- What's he done?
- Spencer.

Does he work here? I got
a couple questions for him.

One second.

Spencer.

Get over here.

Spencer.

Spencer.

Your boss told me where you live.

What do you want from me?

I want to know what the hell

you were doing with Aubrey's dress.

I got video footage of you.

I know you were at Sierra's house.

You do something to that little girl?

No way, man, I would never.

How'd you get the dress?

I found it, okay?

I recognized it from the
missing person poster.

I thought if I hung it
there and, you know, left it,

Aubrey's mom would find it
and something would happen.

Something did happen.
She's in police custody.

I heard.

That's not what I wanted to have happen.

Where'd you find it?

I found it in my backyard.

I think my dad did something to Aubrey.

You think your dad took Aubrey?

I mean, I never saw
her or anything, but...

yeah, I-I don't know, maybe.

You've seen your dad do
bad stuff like that before?

Yeah, you have? Like what kind of stuff?

He chopped my uncle's fingers off once

'cause he thought he
was stealing from him.

No. Wait, stop.

Where's your uncle now?

He doesn't come around anymore.

Think he's scared of my dad, too.

I-I didn't know what to do.

I-I thought about going to the police,

but if my dad found out...

- Is your dad home?
- No, he's at the service yard

- at the Marina.
- Just the two of you

- living here, you and your dad?
- Yeah.

My mom ran off when I was little.

Can you do me a favor?
Can you, can you point

to exactly where you found
the dress? You tell me?

Was out back, near
the, old storage shed.

Was sort of caught under there.

If my dad finds out I let you in...

Okay.

You hang here, in my
truck, you lock the doors,

stay low. I'm gonna
go check it out, okay?

Okay, but you got to be
quick. He's gonna be back soon.

Be right back.

Detective west.

Wait, hold-hold up. Hold up.

You're saying Spencer flint
put the dress in her yard?

Yeah, I'll explain later.

Why in the hell would he do that?

He was gonna go to the cops,
but he was afraid of his dad.

Yeah, Trevor flint.

The guy's got a long rap sheet.

Multiple assaults. He and his brother

used to run coke off the coast.

Nasty piece of work.

- Connection to Sierra?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

He, he was one of the guys

Sierra was seeing back in the day.

And by "seeing," I mean "partying with."

- You question him?
- Of course.

Yeah, but we, we cleared him.

He had an alibi. Said he was on

a fishing trip with his buddies.

Boat company confirmed
the rental was out.

Well, you got something now.

Hey, hey, hey. Come on.

Yeah, we're on our way.

All right, see you soon.

The hell you doing, boy?

Hey!

Easy.

Easy.

Who the hell are you?

Colter Shaw. I don't want any trouble.

Yeah?

Should've thought about that before

you grabbed my boy
and decided to trespass.

Sierra Allen hired me to
find her daughter Aubrey.

What does that have to do with me?

I told you, dad,

- he's not a cop.
- Shut your mouth, boy.

Tell you what. Tell you what.

Why don't, why don't
you let him go, okay?

You and I'll just talk.

I ain't got nothing to talk about with you.

Missing girl's dress was
found on your property.

I got nothing to do with
what happened to that girl.

Wasn't even in town
when she went missing.

You might want to
recheck his fishing trip alibi.

He could've anchored offshore,

snuck back into town overnight.

It's tough but not impossible.

The kid said he found
the dress over here.

Thinking maybe the dog
crawled under that hole right there,

smelled the blood,
brought the dress back out.

We got the cadaver dogs.

If the dress was here,
her body might be, too.

Hey, that stuff isn't mine.

My brother keeps his crap in there.

Couldn't even get to the shed
before I had Spencer clear out

the bull thistle last week.

Your brother Derek, when's
the last time you saw him?

Hell if I know.

Had a falling out about a year ago.

About the same time
Aubrey went missing.

Yeah.

- Tell me what you did with it.
- I didn't do nothing.

He took money from me.

Money that wasn't mine.
Left me on the hook for it, too.

No, wait.

Stop!

So I had to get out of
town, clean up the mess.

That's your fishing trip?

Call it what you like.

But when I came back, he was gone.

Haven't seen him since.

Yeah.

Odds are, Aubrey's in there.

What's over here? Aubrey's shoe?

There's something else over there.

What do we got?

Looks like Aubrey's hair.

Got hair dye.

These tags for... boys' clothes.

What, you think we're
looking for more than one kid?

I don't think so. Look at
this date on this receipt here.

The same day as
Aubrey's disappearance.

Okay.

So, what, he changed her,
cut and bleached her hair?

I don't think he was
planning on killing her.

He's going on the run with her.

- Which means...
- Aubrey could still be alive.

The suspect we're
looking for is Derek flint.

He should be considered
armed and dangerous.

We believe he's in
possession of the little girl.

Top priority is finding him

and recovering Aubrey Allen unharmed.

Leave no stone unturned. Let's go.

I feel like Aubrey showed
up on Derek's radar

once Trevor and Sierra
started seeing each other.

If he did take her, though,
he's gonna be long gone.

Could be in Mexico for all we know.

Yeah. You believe Trevor's story
about his brother robbing him?

I don't know.

His boy said he remembered
his dad and his uncle

getting into it about something.

Maybe it wasn't about money, right?

Maybe it was about taking Aubrey.

We put out an apb,

and we're tracking down
all known associates,

see if anyone knows anything.

Working on the warrant for his
credit cards and phone records.

Warrants take some time. I
got a guy who can do it quicker.

Well, whatever you're about to do,

I don't want to know about it.

But if it gets a faster result,
I can look the other way.

- Yeah.
- Looks like we owe you an apology.

Keep thinking if I'd have
looked into Derek a year ago,

we wouldn't be so far behind.

I just didn't think there was a connection.

The only thing that matters
right now is that Aubrey

might still be out there,
she might still be alive.

I'm gonna head home
and look over my old files

and see if I missed anything else.

Flint brothers used to haunt
mcbrinnley's pub off of 49.

That's a good idea. I'll go check it out.

Let us know how it goes
with your guy, Shaw.

- Yep.
- Keep each other in the loop.

- Thanks again for the assist.
- Yeah, you bet.

- What's up, colter?
- Randy,

need you to run a guy for me. Derek flint.

Look into his credit cards,
his cell phone activity.

Looking for a location.

Got you, partner.

Activity coming right up.

- What do you got?
- Zero credit card

activity in the last year.

What about his phone?

Nothing since the day after
Aubrey's disappearance.

All right, so he ditches
his phone, credit cards

before he goes on the run.

You got his last location?

Let me find out.

Okay.

Two miles north of the flint property.

Looks like it's right on the shoreline.

But that was like a year ago, dawg.

There's no way he's still there.

Well, you got to start
somewhere. Send me the address.

- I already did.
- All right, thanks.

Wow.

Yeah, that's some real

one-eyed Willy action right there.

Okay, so how do we know

that crab trap skeletor
is actually Derek flint?

He's missing the two
fingers that his brother cut off.

Okay. And what about Aubrey?

No, no sign of her.

All right, so-so what are you thinking?

Shot at close range,

there's a small-caliber entry wound.

I think maybe... maybe
Derek was gonna hand her off

to someone, they had second
thoughts about paying him.

Hey, do me a favor.

Can you tell me who owns this land?

Let's find out.

One sec.

Blue creek holdings.

It's-it's a trust.

A trust. Okay, who established it?

On it. On it.

All right, some dude
named Arthur poness.

That's crazy. Says
here he's a retired cop.

Yeah. Randy, I got to go.

Shaw.

Got squat out of mcbrinnley's.

Found Derek flint's body.

He's dead.

Yeah, I found him on a piece
of land owned by Arthur poness.

What was Derek flint
doing on Arthur's land?

I don't know.

He was executed, body was hidden.

I think poness killed
him, took off with Aubrey.

Look, i-I've known the
man my whole career.

There's, there-there's no way.

H-How is that possible?

Yeah, maybe he's not the
man you thought he was.

It would explain why
he couldn't make a case.

Right?

What would he want with that girl?

Maybe he got in too deep on a bad deal.

Maybe Derek double-crossed
him like he did his brother.

Either way, I'm headed
to poness's right now.

I'll meet you there.

Hey, don't call this in,

all right? We don't know
who else from the department

poness might be working with.

Sorry it had to come to this.

What the hell did you do, Arthur?

Hey, colter?

Reenie, you with Sierra?

Yeah, we just got to her place.

I need to talk to her.

Okay, she's right here.

Colter?

What's happened?

Aubrey's alive.

My god.

She's been living with
Arthur poness and his wife.

Wait, detective poness has Aubrey?

I don't understand. How?

Is poness Aubrey's grandfather?

Staring at a family photo right now

of the ponesses and their son.

Aubrey looks an awful lot like him.

Sierra, if there's something
you haven't told us...

Their son... Jason is Aubrey's father.

I wasn't sure at the time

because of my lifestyle, but, yeah.

And why didn't you tell us before?

Nobody knew.

I found out I was pregnant
after Jason died and...

I never told them or
anyone he was the father.

Well, poness must
have found out somehow.

They always hated me.

They blamed me for
what happened to Jason.

Well, they didn't leave here too long ago.

I think Arthur and his wife took Aubrey,

and they're on the
run. I'm going after 'em.

God.

West, is that you?

I want you to let me and my family go.

Poness.

- Where's west?
- He's fine.

I was keeping an eye on him
when I should've been watching you.

- What'd you do to Aubrey?
- I promise you, she's in

very good hands.

She's safe, loved.

- We take care of her.
- You kidnapped her?

I saved her.

From Derek flint?

I was checking out Trevor.

Instead, I found Derek.

That monster had our
granddaughter. He was gonna do

unspeakable things to her.

- So you knew about Aubrey.
- We had our suspicions.

My wife Iris saw them at the
grocery a few weeks before.

Girl looked just like our
son Jason at that age.

When I saw her with Derek,

I knew Sierra wasn't a worthy mother.

Aubrey's hands were all cut up

from Sierra's broken booze bottle.

That's how that blood
got all over her dress.

I couldn't let Aubrey
go back to that house.

That's not your call to make, Arthur.

I saw she drew her mother as an angel.

What'd you tell her... she-she died?

Seemed easier on the girl.

You didn't see Sierra back then.

She was killing herself,

going down that dark path like Jason did.

So drunk, a man could

walk into her house
and take her daughter.

I felt sorry for her,

but I couldn't let Aubrey
go back into that situation.

She's not like that now.

Ten months of sobriety
doesn't make a stable home.

What's your plan, Arthur?
What are you gonna do?

You gonna keep running with a little girl?

If I have to.

You're putting her in danger.

You know that, right?

What are you gonna
do when she gets older,

just keep lying to her?

We'll worry about that when we get to it.

I can't let you take her, Arthur.

You're giving me no choice.

Arthur, you don't have to do this.

What are you doing?

What did you do?

Tried to avoid hitting anything major.

Guessing Tyson has
about 30 minutes, tops.

You got a choice to make.

You can come after Aubrey, who's safe.

Or you can save a dying man.

Arthur? Ar...

- Yo.
- Randy, west is in trouble.

I just sent you his cell phone.

Can you give me his location?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, got you.

Come on.

Got it.

Sending you a pin now.

All right, I'm about 40 minutes away.

I'm gonna head over there,
I'm gonna stabilize him.

Call an ambulance. Do it now.

West?

West?

Shaw.

Shaw.

- Hey.
- Shaw.

You're all right. I got you.

I got you.

Hang in there, all right?

I got an ambulance on the way, okay?

Here you go. This isn't
gonna feel good. You ready?

All right? Deep breath.

Here we go.

All right.

Here you go.

All right.

Listen to me.

Poness is smart, right?

He knows there's gonna
be roadblocks everywhere,

police looking for Aubrey.

Does he have a piece of land, property,

somewhere he could be hiding out at?

He has a boat. I've been on it.

He keeps it in the east bay Marina.

His boat's called the eurydice.

East bay Marina. Okay.

Keep pressure on that thing, okay?

Hey, hey!

- Down here!
- Go, go.

Yeah, ambulance on the way, okay?

Iris, we got to go!

Fire up the engine, Iris. We got to go.

We got to...

You're not gonna take her from us.

Where's Aubrey?

Stop, Arthur.

It wasn't supposed to be this way.

Yeah.

Aubrey, honey, come out here.

Aubrey.

It's okay.

Grandma, grandpa, are we safe?

Yes, sweetheart.

You're safe.

Well, that stranger just saw me.

Everything's gonna be okay.

This is Mr. Shaw.

Hi, Aubrey.

Yeah.

Good job.

Yeah. Look at ruffles.

- We'll just be a minute.
- Thank you.

Hey, we're just gonna give Aubrey

a couple more minutes
to get comfortable,

and then Lynn the social
worker is gonna come do

a supervised visit. Okay?

She's a good kid.

You did something right.

Give it some time.

I've seen a lot in my line of work,

some I wish I hadn't,

and one thing that I know for sure...

recovery is not linear.

Okay?

Hey.

Was at the hospital paying a visit

- to detective west.
- How's he doing?

He's got a long road
ahead of him. He'll be okay.

Wanted me to, send his
apologies for ever blaming you.

Well, Sierra's been working with cps,

and we've got a plan all thought out.

So we're gonna show the court

that this is gonna be a safe
and stable home for Aubrey.

Good.

Sorry, I've got to take
this. Excuse me a minute.

Thanks, reenie.

Thanks. Hi, this is reenie.

It's not your fault.

I wasn't there when she needed me.

Well, you're here now.

I can't believe Arthur got
everyone fooled for so long.

Now he's gonna have a lot of time

to think about what
he did. He and his wife.

Yeah.

You know, I sort of understand them.

They thought they were
keeping their family together,

but in the end they
tore it apart even more.

Yeah, I suppose sometimes

people do the wrong
things for the right reasons.

You know something about that?

I might.

You got a lot of lost time to catch up on.

I can't thank you enough, colter,

for bringing her back to me.

Take care of her, okay?

Do you want to say hi to your mommy?

- Hi.
- Mommy!
