1 00:00:35,470 --> 00:00:40,830 I need to write down when we just caught up. I lost my appetite. 2 00:00:41,370 --> 00:00:44,810 I cannot sleep at night. I cannot concentrate. 3 00:00:45,150 --> 00:00:50,350 I do not feel too great. Oh, I'm just caving in. I'm kind of struggling. 4 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,640 You're going to tell me why you're in such a good mood? Or do I have to ask 5 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,480 that? Oh, my goodness. Thank you so much for noticing. 6 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,760 No big deal. Just any moment, Robert from HR is going to walk through these 7 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,460 doors and hand me my very own badge. 8 00:01:34,820 --> 00:01:36,160 You're excited about your ID badge? 9 00:01:36,420 --> 00:01:37,640 Turning wheels are coming off, buddy. 10 00:01:38,540 --> 00:01:39,540 I'm not so sure. 11 00:01:39,660 --> 00:01:43,000 I'm pretty sure about that. First, the LAPD mug. 12 00:01:43,220 --> 00:01:45,260 Actually, that's mine. And now my very own badge. 13 00:01:46,190 --> 00:01:50,150 Your vote of confidence is not lost on me. But nobody panic. I don't plan on 14 00:01:50,150 --> 00:01:52,870 rooting around in the evidence locker too much. Well, that's good because your 15 00:01:52,870 --> 00:01:55,730 ID badge does not provide access to said evidence locker. Sure about that? 16 00:01:56,470 --> 00:01:57,770 I'll get back to you. Bob! 17 00:01:58,230 --> 00:01:59,230 Bob's here. 18 00:01:59,630 --> 00:02:01,030 Can I call you, Bob? No. 19 00:02:01,750 --> 00:02:02,750 Sign here, please. 20 00:02:02,990 --> 00:02:05,130 Come and write at me with the fine print. 21 00:02:05,330 --> 00:02:09,729 You need to sign for the badge. 22 00:02:09,970 --> 00:02:11,770 You know what, Robert? 23 00:02:11,990 --> 00:02:18,230 I will make you a deal, okay? I won't sign... But what I will do is take my 24 00:02:18,230 --> 00:02:20,290 badge. Yep. There she goes. 25 00:02:20,550 --> 00:02:21,790 She can't. She did. 26 00:02:36,370 --> 00:02:37,370 You okay? 27 00:02:39,170 --> 00:02:40,410 Yeah, I'm fine. 28 00:02:42,700 --> 00:02:45,060 You ever have one of those days where you just feel like you're losing your 29 00:02:45,060 --> 00:02:46,760 mind? Are there other kinds of days? 30 00:02:49,780 --> 00:02:50,780 What's going on? 31 00:02:52,180 --> 00:02:53,180 It's my girls. 32 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,080 Their father was supposed to drop them off last night, but he never showed up. 33 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,080 call, I text. 34 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:02,340 I thought maybe they would be at his house, but I just want to know if 35 00:03:02,340 --> 00:03:03,340 okay. 36 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:05,320 Did you have a bad feeling? 37 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,960 I said I'd come in here and try to get it together before I talk to the 38 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,280 detectives. And my dad's on his way. 39 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:17,920 I'm probably just overreacting, right? 40 00:03:20,220 --> 00:03:25,500 I think that wherever your girls are, we're going to find them. 41 00:03:29,740 --> 00:03:31,220 Mia, when's the last time you saw your daughters? 42 00:03:32,020 --> 00:03:33,440 Yesterday, when Wendell picked them up. 43 00:03:33,740 --> 00:03:34,760 He's my ex -husband. 44 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,180 You should have never agreed to share custody before the divorce was 45 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,420 Dad, he's their father. He has a right to see them. 46 00:03:41,230 --> 00:03:43,950 You guys been camping at Mount Baldy? Yes, last summer. 47 00:03:44,290 --> 00:03:46,750 Wendell took us. That was right before we split. 48 00:03:46,970 --> 00:03:50,150 Was there a reason for the split? Wendell started reading about everything 49 00:03:50,150 --> 00:03:51,150 on with the planet. 50 00:03:51,510 --> 00:03:54,090 Temperatures rising, icebergs melting, deforestation. 51 00:03:54,810 --> 00:03:57,970 Lots of biodiversity, industrial waste, ocean acidification. 52 00:03:58,450 --> 00:03:59,630 They sound just like him. 53 00:03:59,830 --> 00:04:04,210 Yeah, what Mia is too nice to say is that Wendell became a radical. A 54 00:04:04,350 --> 00:04:08,850 Yeah, he became obsessed with environmentalism. Become all for 55 00:04:08,850 --> 00:04:09,850 composting, but... 56 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:11,120 Yeah, he just took it too far. 57 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,860 He wanted Mia and the girls to live completely off -grid, told Ellie and 58 00:04:14,860 --> 00:04:16,740 that everything was poison, water, food. 59 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:22,160 These are kids we're talking about here. He's not a monster. The man decided to 60 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,620 grow a garden rather than take care of his own family. 61 00:04:25,980 --> 00:04:29,720 Wendell and I had a small online business, but you kind of need to be on 62 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:30,720 grid for that. 63 00:04:31,220 --> 00:04:33,240 Thankfully, my father was able to help. 64 00:04:33,500 --> 00:04:34,500 He moved in with us. 65 00:04:34,830 --> 00:04:38,190 Did Wendell ever talk about taking the girls out of the city? All the time. He 66 00:04:38,190 --> 00:04:42,250 bought a cabin out in Upland, said he wanted to become one with nature, live 67 00:04:42,250 --> 00:04:45,850 the land. Can we stop talking now and start looking for my granddaughters? Mr. 68 00:04:45,970 --> 00:04:49,390 Ashford, we cannot put out an ember alert until the girls have been missing 69 00:04:49,390 --> 00:04:54,310 at least 24 hours. What we can do is issue a bolo for Wendell's car, and we 70 00:04:54,310 --> 00:04:55,310 visit the home. 71 00:04:55,390 --> 00:04:57,170 Mia, do you think there's any chance he might harm them? 72 00:04:58,230 --> 00:05:00,470 I honestly don't know. 73 00:05:06,090 --> 00:05:09,610 State Department says Wendell done applied for two minor passports last 74 00:05:09,610 --> 00:05:12,270 for Elliot Page. If the guy got his dream house in the country, do we really 75 00:05:12,270 --> 00:05:13,270 believe he'd just leave it behind? 76 00:05:13,450 --> 00:05:15,410 He might have if he thought he was about to lose custody. 77 00:05:15,690 --> 00:05:19,270 According to this report from Child Protective Services, Wendell was found 78 00:05:19,270 --> 00:05:22,870 unstable and could be a danger to his daughter. All right, call TSA and check 79 00:05:22,870 --> 00:05:26,230 flight manifests and border crossings. Maybe he wanted to take these girls out 80 00:05:26,230 --> 00:05:28,130 of more than Houston City. I'll go check his house. 81 00:05:28,470 --> 00:05:29,470 Don't forget Morgan. 82 00:05:29,610 --> 00:05:30,610 Oh, how could I? 83 00:05:32,290 --> 00:05:33,590 Can I be totally honest? 84 00:05:36,050 --> 00:05:37,910 Please. I've only worked here for a couple weeks. 85 00:05:38,710 --> 00:05:40,830 But I've studied the people in this building closely. 86 00:05:41,290 --> 00:05:44,470 I know that pit in your stomach's not going anywhere until your girls are 87 00:05:44,570 --> 00:05:46,950 but I promise you, you're in good hands. 88 00:05:54,370 --> 00:05:55,590 Make sure she eats something. 89 00:05:58,130 --> 00:05:59,550 Guillory, filter. 90 00:06:00,470 --> 00:06:01,910 We're going to Wendy Dunn's house. 91 00:06:13,390 --> 00:06:14,289 Oh, look at this. 92 00:06:14,290 --> 00:06:18,010 Solar panels, rain barrels, compost bin. This Wendell guy really is an eco 93 00:06:18,010 --> 00:06:19,010 -warrior, huh? 94 00:06:19,070 --> 00:06:19,969 Oh, no. 95 00:06:19,970 --> 00:06:20,970 Do you see this? 96 00:06:26,430 --> 00:06:29,530 Ellie was holding this in one of the pictures I saw. And it was a 97 00:06:29,530 --> 00:06:32,070 photo, which means it's probably her favorite. So she wouldn't have left it 98 00:06:32,070 --> 00:06:33,230 behind unless she didn't have a choice. 99 00:06:33,750 --> 00:06:35,050 No, she wouldn't. 100 00:06:38,670 --> 00:06:39,670 Hello? 101 00:06:40,710 --> 00:06:41,710 Mr. Dunn? 102 00:06:44,330 --> 00:06:46,150 Detective Karadak, LAPD. 103 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:19,420 Guy cans his own jam. 104 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,040 Knows what he's capable of. 105 00:07:21,300 --> 00:07:22,300 All clear. 106 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:26,260 Mr. Dunn must have left in a hurry. Maybe. My kids don't love clearing their 107 00:07:26,260 --> 00:07:27,660 plates under any circumstances. 108 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:33,660 A greenhouse. 109 00:07:38,020 --> 00:07:42,260 Peppers, zucchini, malabar spinach, cucamelon, gorilla. 110 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:43,680 I get it. You know your vegetables. 111 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:45,600 Most of those are fruits. 112 00:07:45,900 --> 00:07:46,940 Thank you very much. 113 00:07:47,770 --> 00:07:50,190 Elliot went through a bit of a permaculture phase last summer. 114 00:07:50,450 --> 00:07:53,090 Well, then I'll leave the gardening to you guys. It's not really my thing. Come 115 00:07:53,090 --> 00:07:56,150 on, Morgan, the clock's ticking. Wendell planted cucumbers and tomatoes next to 116 00:07:56,150 --> 00:07:59,450 each other? Are you critiquing our suspect's garden now? Cucumbers and 117 00:07:59,450 --> 00:08:02,650 are not companion plants. Wendell would never plant them side by side. 118 00:08:02,850 --> 00:08:05,410 They compete for the same nutrients. They have completely different watering 119 00:08:05,410 --> 00:08:08,070 needs, which might explain why they're not thriving. 120 00:08:09,070 --> 00:08:13,210 Okay. Are you saying that you think Wendell made a mistake in the way that 121 00:08:13,210 --> 00:08:14,270 arranged this garden? 122 00:08:15,710 --> 00:08:16,710 No. 123 00:08:17,260 --> 00:08:18,960 He wouldn't do that. You saw how he lives. 124 00:08:24,180 --> 00:08:25,560 These haven't even rooted yet. 125 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,120 What are you saying, Lauren? 126 00:08:29,140 --> 00:08:33,280 I think this space was empty until Wendell moved all these plants in here 127 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,919 the last few days. But you just said that he would never do that. Yeah, he 128 00:08:35,919 --> 00:08:38,520 wouldn't. Unless he had a reason. Something to hide. 129 00:08:39,900 --> 00:08:40,900 Or someone. 130 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:16,780 Wendell didn't have anything to hide. 131 00:09:17,100 --> 00:09:18,100 Someone else did. 132 00:09:18,980 --> 00:09:19,980 Him. 133 00:09:29,620 --> 00:09:36,460 Looks like 134 00:09:36,460 --> 00:09:38,000 cause of death was a blow to the back of the head. 135 00:09:38,220 --> 00:09:39,600 And that's our murder weapon? Indeed. 136 00:09:39,860 --> 00:09:42,400 Medical examiner thinks Wendell died sometime in the last 12 hours. 137 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,940 Have them rush autopsy and tool mark analysis just to make sure. If whoever 138 00:09:46,940 --> 00:09:49,320 killed Wendell kidnapped those girls, they could be halfway across the country 139 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,080 by now. No sign of the girls anywhere? 140 00:09:51,300 --> 00:09:54,260 No. We didn't see any disturbed soil anywhere else on the property, so I 141 00:09:54,260 --> 00:09:55,260 the girls were taken alive. 142 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,060 Now our primary suspect is dead. 143 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:58,320 Mm -hmm. 144 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,820 If the girls saw their father murdered, it's possible that the killer's holding 145 00:10:01,820 --> 00:10:02,820 them to keep them quiet. 146 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,300 Or the killer came for the girls and the dad got in the way. 147 00:10:06,500 --> 00:10:10,180 Hey, anything door -to -door? No, the neighbors are too far to have seen or 148 00:10:10,180 --> 00:10:11,179 heard anything. 149 00:10:11,180 --> 00:10:14,740 So I went to the cafe where Wendell sells veggies. The owner saw him in an 150 00:10:14,740 --> 00:10:16,000 argument with a woman yesterday. 151 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,400 You got a name? Only a description. She's 30, long red hair, glasses. 152 00:10:20,420 --> 00:10:21,900 Maybe Wendell got a new girlfriend. 153 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,400 I don't know about that. The guy's still wearing his wedding ring. 154 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:25,940 Like that ever stopped anybody. 155 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:27,400 Check this out. 156 00:10:27,580 --> 00:10:30,380 Morgan found this photo hidden in Wendell's survivalist handbook. 157 00:10:30,580 --> 00:10:31,580 Maybe it's his parents? 158 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:32,960 Find out. 159 00:10:33,680 --> 00:10:35,900 I'll see if Mia's family knows a woman that fits the description. 160 00:10:36,580 --> 00:10:37,580 Hold on. 161 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,600 You put out an Amber Alert for the girl 30 minutes ago. 162 00:10:42,300 --> 00:10:43,300 I did. 163 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:45,740 You know all Amber Alerts go through me. 164 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:47,800 Why'd you break protocol? 165 00:10:47,940 --> 00:10:48,940 Every second counts. 166 00:10:50,560 --> 00:10:51,680 She's rubbing off on you. 167 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:53,080 Who? 168 00:10:53,560 --> 00:10:54,560 Who do you think? 169 00:11:02,510 --> 00:11:06,150 Wait for the crisis to arrive. Assume it's already here. Because what we do by 170 00:11:06,150 --> 00:11:08,050 choice today may be a necessity tomorrow. 171 00:11:08,690 --> 00:11:11,010 That man just wanted his girls to be prepared for anything. 172 00:11:12,130 --> 00:11:14,590 There's nothing in this book that can teach you how to survive losing your 173 00:11:14,590 --> 00:11:16,690 father. Yeah, there's nothing that can prepare you for that. 174 00:11:17,870 --> 00:11:19,710 You guys see those fresh tire tracks out there? 175 00:11:20,410 --> 00:11:22,050 We're trying to determine the type of vehicle. 176 00:11:22,390 --> 00:11:23,390 Good. 177 00:11:23,450 --> 00:11:26,390 Because Belly and Paige were taken by a stranger and not a family member, their 178 00:11:26,390 --> 00:11:28,490 odds of being found alive dropped 42%. 179 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:43,000 John Ashford owns Ashford Luxury Estate, a global portfolio of luxury hotels. 180 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:44,500 Are we sure this isn't one of them? 181 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:46,440 No wonder Mia wanted to move back home. 182 00:11:46,700 --> 00:11:49,500 Yeah, her father's a very wealthy man, which means we can't rule out a ransom. 183 00:11:49,660 --> 00:11:51,760 And he hated Wendell, so we can't rule him out as a setback. 184 00:11:52,140 --> 00:11:53,140 Right. 185 00:11:56,300 --> 00:11:58,400 Too many balconies. 186 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,780 I can't believe that he's dead. 187 00:12:03,460 --> 00:12:04,580 Do you think he was murdered? 188 00:12:04,900 --> 00:12:07,620 We know so, sir.

But he 381 00:22:43,390 --> 00:22:46,470 that when he got to Wendell's house, he saw Mia arguing with him and left. Mia 382 00:22:46,470 --> 00:22:49,850 never mentioned she saw Wendell the day he died. No, but if she knew Wendell was 383 00:22:49,850 --> 00:22:52,270 going public with information that would ruin her father, she had motive. 384 00:22:53,170 --> 00:22:54,590 What? Motive to what? 385 00:22:55,690 --> 00:22:56,690 Kill her ex -husband? 386 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,240 Please tell me you're not taking this man's word over a mother of two who's 387 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:06,240 desperate to find her girls. We need to consider all options. That's how we get 388 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,700 Paige and Ellie home. Okay, but this is a guy you call when you need things 389 00:23:09,700 --> 00:23:13,660 cleaned up, right? We can't trust him. You're right. And I can see him killing 390 00:23:13,660 --> 00:23:16,480 Wendell. But planting rows of potatoes over his body? 391 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,740 They were tomatoes. And why not? I can picture it. 392 00:23:20,360 --> 00:23:23,060 Well, the fresh tire track at Wendell's house turned out to be a mess for Mia's 393 00:23:23,060 --> 00:23:24,060 car. 394 00:23:25,770 --> 00:23:28,950 We got a text from Oz about an hour ago, but Mia wasn't a suspect at the time, 395 00:23:29,030 --> 00:23:34,610 so... What? And she is now? Come on, you guys. Use your imaginations. 396 00:23:34,950 --> 00:23:38,890 She could have swung by to grab some rutabagas or the girl's homework. 397 00:23:39,150 --> 00:23:42,130 Or, you know, they're trying to iron out the details of a nasty divorce. 398 00:23:45,670 --> 00:23:47,230 No. Get this. 399 00:23:47,690 --> 00:23:50,850 Mia Ashford wrote you $100 ,000 just before the banks closed today. 400 00:23:51,290 --> 00:23:53,950 I had a unit swing by a parent's house, but they don't know where she is. Okay, 401 00:23:54,010 --> 00:23:56,710 why don't we just call the woman and ask her to explain herself? 402 00:23:57,030 --> 00:23:58,030 She's in your phone. 403 00:23:58,070 --> 00:23:59,790 Yeah, she was upset. We talked. 404 00:24:00,270 --> 00:24:01,189 Exchange numbers. 405 00:24:01,190 --> 00:24:02,530 This is Mia. Please leave a message. 406 00:24:03,570 --> 00:24:08,430 Okay, listen to me. Are you seriously saying that you think Mia killed her ex 407 00:24:08,430 --> 00:24:11,650 -husband and kidnapped her own kids? I'm saying we can't rule it out. 408 00:24:12,650 --> 00:24:15,250 Parental abductions happen. Yeah, they sure do. And if the girls are with their 409 00:24:15,250 --> 00:24:16,410 mother, at least we know they're not in danger. 410 00:24:16,650 --> 00:24:17,650 Oh! 411 00:24:17,770 --> 00:24:21,090 That's great. That's great. So the one thing that we do agree on is that the 412 00:24:21,090 --> 00:24:24,430 woman's not planning on murdering her own two children. That's so great. It 413 00:24:24,430 --> 00:24:27,710 feels so great to be on the same page. She might be keeping the girls quiet if 414 00:24:27,710 --> 00:24:30,410 they witness Mia kill their father. Look, look, it's late. 415 00:24:30,630 --> 00:24:33,770 There's nothing more we can do tonight. I want you all to go home and get some 416 00:24:33,770 --> 00:24:37,610 rest, but leave your phones on. Should another lead come up, we're right back 417 00:24:37,610 --> 00:24:41,130 here. In the meantime, our friend Eddie spends the night. And Daphne, move Mia's 418 00:24:41,130 --> 00:24:44,510 photo over to the suspect side of the case board. Oh, my God. We need to find 419 00:24:44,510 --> 00:24:47,650 her. Until she gives us the answer, we consider her a suspect. 420 00:24:47,930 --> 00:24:51,930 You cannot be serious. This is so stupid. Morgan, no one's saying that 421 00:24:51,930 --> 00:24:54,690 wrong, but you have to understand. I understand this woman. 422 00:24:55,470 --> 00:24:56,470 She's terrified. 423 00:24:57,150 --> 00:24:58,390 She doesn't know where I killed her. 424 00:24:59,990 --> 00:25:01,890 And I promised her that she could trust us. 425 00:25:12,830 --> 00:25:14,370 You all right? Yeah, fine. 426 00:25:16,020 --> 00:25:18,760 You know, the lab is still testing the van for evidence. Maybe they'll find... 427 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:20,460 You and I both know they're not going to find anything. 428 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,160 That's what Eddie does. He cleans up. 429 00:25:22,460 --> 00:25:26,900 Remember? Do I need to explain to you how enzyme -based cleaners break down 430 00:25:26,900 --> 00:25:28,680 proteins in blood? You heard Soda. 431 00:25:29,060 --> 00:25:31,980 Right, Morgan? She said we all need to go get some rest, especially you. 432 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,680 Yeah, gosh, everyone's got such great advice. Let me tell you something. I 433 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,630 didn't rest... for the 27 hours leading up to finding out that two little girls 434 00:25:41,630 --> 00:25:43,570 were kidnapped. Wait, what? Are you serious? 435 00:25:43,830 --> 00:25:47,070 So I'm not sure what you think is going to happen when I lay my head down on my 436 00:25:47,070 --> 00:25:49,910 pillow tonight, knowing that Ellie and Paige are still out there. You think I'm 437 00:25:49,910 --> 00:25:54,370 just going to drift right off to sweet slumberland, you know, maybe recharge my 438 00:25:54,370 --> 00:25:56,910 batteries? I can guarantee you there'll be no resting. 439 00:25:58,170 --> 00:25:59,770 You told Mia she could trust us. 440 00:26:01,010 --> 00:26:03,590 But maybe, just maybe, we can't trust her. 441 00:26:04,550 --> 00:26:06,530 Either way, you and I are on the same team here, Morgan. 442 00:26:15,340 --> 00:26:16,340 Hey, Mama. 443 00:26:16,460 --> 00:26:17,460 Hi. 444 00:26:17,620 --> 00:26:18,780 Thanks for staying late. 445 00:26:18,980 --> 00:26:20,520 Yeah.

No, don't throw that away. You saved that for the compost. 451 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:33,960 What compost? 452 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,520 The compost we're getting tomorrow. We're getting the compost. 453 00:26:37,500 --> 00:26:40,280 What am I supposed to do with this until then? Just, like, hang on to it? 454 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,000 Yeah, hang on to it. Come here first. 455 00:26:48,969 --> 00:26:49,969 Mom? Yeah? 456 00:26:50,570 --> 00:26:51,570 You okay? 457 00:26:53,170 --> 00:26:54,610 Yes.

No more questions. I'm sure you have enough in your head already. 476 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:49,000 I'm sorry. 477 00:27:49,180 --> 00:27:52,840 It's not you. You're great. My brain just wouldn't work today, and I really 478 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:53,579 needed it to. 479 00:27:53,580 --> 00:27:57,000 Hey, you with half a brain beat the rest of us on our best day. 480 00:27:57,540 --> 00:28:00,620 Those little girls deserve to have it be my best day. The girls were laughing 481 00:28:00,620 --> 00:28:03,220 yesterday afternoon around 3 p .m. 482 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,580 There was nothing in the spotlight. 483 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:08,380 Someone moved that Buddha. Why? 484 00:28:09,420 --> 00:28:12,620 They moved the Buddha because they wanted to open the cabinet, but nothing 485 00:28:12,620 --> 00:28:13,620 looked like it was missing. 486 00:28:15,100 --> 00:28:17,040 Nothing was missing, so something was switched. 487 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:18,320 Do you see? 488 00:28:19,460 --> 00:28:20,460 Something was switched. 489 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:22,960 It's a go, then. 490 00:28:30,260 --> 00:28:31,260 Closed. Doesn't look like it. 491 00:28:31,820 --> 00:28:32,940 How did you know I'd be here? 492 00:28:33,180 --> 00:28:37,200 Well, Google told me that this guy is an expert in Chinese antiques, and your 493 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:38,200 mom loves China. 494 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,840 Honestly, I think your family is hogging all the books on the subject. 495 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,180 So tell me, am I correct that the Ming at your parents' house is a fake? 496 00:28:44,970 --> 00:28:47,790 Because it had a little boy playing Colin Maillard on it, and that wouldn't 497 00:28:47,790 --> 00:28:50,870 exactly be historically accurate, would it? Well... No, it's not, because Colin 498 00:28:50,870 --> 00:28:54,010 Maillard became a hit in the 16th century, so little boys wouldn't be 499 00:28:54,010 --> 00:28:56,250 in the Ming. You know what? It doesn't matter. That's not the point. The point 500 00:28:56,250 --> 00:28:59,930 is, the Ming at your parents' house is not real because you put a fake in there 501 00:28:59,930 --> 00:29:03,590 to replace the real one, which is right here. 502 00:29:07,330 --> 00:29:08,330 Right? 503 00:29:08,750 --> 00:29:10,630 So tell me, Mia, why do you need so much cash? 504 00:29:12,610 --> 00:29:13,610 None of your business. 505 00:29:15,780 --> 00:29:17,100 Could you give us the room, please? 506 00:29:21,580 --> 00:29:24,700 The police should be out there finding your daughters, not running all over 507 00:29:24,700 --> 00:29:27,680 looking for you. I can't speak to the police. Well, great. I'm not the police. 508 00:29:30,700 --> 00:29:33,940 A man called me saying that he had paid Denali, and if I don't give him 200 509 00:29:33,940 --> 00:29:37,380 grand by tonight, that they'll end up like Wendell. I could only withdraw half 510 00:29:37,380 --> 00:29:42,380 from the bank, so... Mia, we have to call the police. No, no, no. If I call 511 00:29:42,380 --> 00:29:44,320 police, he'll kill him. That's what he said. Please. 512 00:29:46,260 --> 00:29:48,800 That's why I couldn't go to my parents for the money, because I knew they would 513 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:49,800 start making calls. 514 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,000 Why didn't you tell me you saw Wendell before he died? 515 00:29:54,860 --> 00:29:58,420 I couldn't tell anyone, not without sending my father to jail. 516 00:29:58,740 --> 00:30:02,940 I only went to Wendell's to beg him not to report my father, but he wouldn't 517 00:30:02,940 --> 00:30:03,940 listen, so I went home. 518 00:30:04,180 --> 00:30:08,000 Look, my father is a flawed man, but he's always been there for me and the 519 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:09,000 girls.

It's okay. 562 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:23,480 They're not in there. 563 00:34:38,540 --> 00:34:39,540 It's not her fault. 564 00:34:40,060 --> 00:34:41,060 No? 565 00:34:41,300 --> 00:34:42,739 It was my call.

That doesn't make any sense. The birds and the leaves, the cleanup of the 573 00:35:41,630 --> 00:35:45,510 car would be a nightmare. And then I realized, oh, he's... park there because 574 00:35:45,510 --> 00:35:48,350 can see inside Mia's bedroom window from the mirror. 575 00:35:48,570 --> 00:35:52,210 Curtis is in love with Mia. Now, when he couldn't win big at gambling, he 576 00:35:52,210 --> 00:35:55,570 figured why not give the ransom game a try because he was going to need money 577 00:35:55,570 --> 00:35:58,730 he wanted to sweep an Ashford off her feet. So he planned to kidnap the girl 578 00:35:58,730 --> 00:36:02,270 get the money to win her hand and was the knight in shining armor for Mia 579 00:36:02,270 --> 00:36:04,350 the most traumatic day of her life to win her heart. 580 00:36:04,610 --> 00:36:05,609 But how? 581 00:36:05,610 --> 00:36:09,570 We were so focused on John's fake alibi, but it was really Curtis who was hiding 582 00:36:09,570 --> 00:36:12,810 behind it. He must have shown up to Wendell's in the middle of dinner, got 583 00:36:12,810 --> 00:36:15,830 a fight with him. the greenhouse where he killed him, buried the body, then 584 00:36:15,830 --> 00:36:17,330 back inside to take the girl. 585 00:36:18,890 --> 00:36:20,030 Wendell didn't deserve Mia. 586 00:36:21,730 --> 00:36:26,330 The horrible farm that he forced her to live on, and then the custody that you 587 00:36:26,330 --> 00:36:31,230 and our father's in prison, I... I couldn't let him hurt my family. 588 00:36:31,710 --> 00:36:32,710 So you loved Mia. 589 00:36:33,570 --> 00:36:35,830 That's why you killed Wendell, and that's why you kidnapped Mia's girls. 590 00:36:36,070 --> 00:36:37,450 No, no, I was gonna bring the girls back. 591 00:36:37,710 --> 00:36:40,150 And play the hero?
