[Fiona VO] Where am I?

Why am I in this basement?

As the host of a popular True Crime podcast, I'm used

to talking about people in life threatening situations.

I just never thought I'd be one of them.

And now I'm wondering, will I survive long enough

to tell my story?

Can anybody hear me? Please? Anybody? Help!

[pounding on door]

Help!

[Fiona VO] So, how did I get locked in that basement,

certain I was going to be killed?

It all started with a pleasant trip back home

to see my mom and dad.

Home is Benton Springs, Georgia.

I hadn't been back in a while,

and as I drove through those charming old neighborhoods,

I realized I still knew these streets

like the back of my hand.

It was a great place to grow up, but it had its secrets.

That's when it dawned on me, this is where it all started.

My fascination with true crime,

my desire to know what lies beneath the surface.

And one of the most haunting cases I'd ever encountered

was right here where I grew up.

It had to do with the identity of a baby girl,

a Jane Doe who was found in the woods 42 years ago.

Who did she belong to?

How did she end up out here buried in a shallow grave?

And what secrets were buried with with her?

Who was The Girl with No Name?

[light music]

[Fiona] Hey, Mom!

[Cecily] Ah, Fiona! Oh, Honey.

Oh, oh. It's been too long. How are you?

Good.

You look thin. Have you been eating?

Stop.

Oh, this place looks great! You've been busy!

- [Cecily] It's nothing. - [Fiona laughs]

There's my girl!

- Dad! - Hey sweetie.

[Fiona] Hey! So good to see you both.

You too.

Hey, Barry. Get her some iced tea.

Oh, yes ma'am.

[Cecily] It has been 40 years

and he still thinks the joke is funny.

And it was never funny.

[Mom] Thank you. It was never funny. Come on, sit down.

Oh it's so good to see you.

Ah, it's so good to be home.

Oh. So where's the party?

At the Holt Vineyard.

Ooh, that's fancy!

[Cecily] Well, it was your father's idea.

[Fiona laughs]

And you? You sealed the deal.

- Oh, really? How clever of me. - [Mom] Mm-hmm.

The new owner, Marcus--

He's married to this woman, Emily from New York City.

She is a big fan of your radio show.

It's a podcast, but close enough.

[Cecily] Anyway, she could not have arranged that venue faster,

so thank you.

[Barry] Hey, did she tell you about the party?

She did , yeah. I can't wait.

So many old faces to see.

Oh, speaking of, did you talk to Raphael?

We sent him an invite, Honey,

but honestly,

ever since he retired from the Sheriff's Department,

he is just kinda holed himself up

in that cabin out in the woods.

I just wouldn't hold out much hope.

Well, he'll come. I'm, I'm sure.

I mean, the whole town will be there.

Who doesn't love the Michelsons?

[laughter]

[big band music playing]

You'll be in my hand.

This way.

You okay, Mom?

Yes, of course.

I've just never been comfortable

being the center of attention, that's all.

Well, you should,

because you look like the belle of the ball.

Oh. Oh, look, look.

We'll be back.

- [Fiona] Oh! - [Daisy exclaims] Fiona!

Oh my God!

Whoa! You look amazing!

Me? You look amazing.

Thank you. I, I just can't believe you're here.

It's so good to see you.

[Fiona] I'm sorry I've been so bad about staying in touch.

I've just, I've been so busy.

It's nothing to apologize for.

You created a culturalphenomenon ! I'm so proud of you

The whole town is.

I just got lucky.

Please, girl. Don't be modest.

But what about you ?

I mean, you're climbing the corporate ladder I hear?

Yes, I am the head of logistics for Holt Vineyards.

Okay!

I think we turned out pretty well

for some juvenile delinquents.

Right.

[Daisy] So, are you dating anyone?

Oh, I barely have time to talk

to one of my oldest friends.

Do you think I have time for that ?

[Daisy] Since you're single, guess who else is here?

[Fiona] Joseph Heller.

Yeah.

I recall you telling me you two

were gonna be together forever.

Yeah. When we were teenagers!

He is single and ready to mingle.

Okay. But--

With you, right now.

Yeah. Come on.

Dr. Joe.

Daisy.

Fiona. Hi.

You look-- It's so good to see you.

Yeah, you too.

- [Joe] Oh. Oh, yeah. - [Fiona laughs]

- Yeah. - [Fiona and Joe laugh]

Okay. I should go and network.

But you two should catch up.

[laughs]

Your mom invited me in case you thought I was crashing.

Oh, no, of course not.

I'm, I'm glad you're here. Are you enjoying the party?

Yeah. No, it's great. Yeah.

I'm just glad not to be working. You know?

[Fiona] You're a doctor.

You save lives. Um, I'm proud of you, by the way,

you always thought you didn't have it in you.

You always said I did.

[Emily] Oh my goodness!

You're here!

Oh, you must be Emily Holt.

“Sometimes stories slip through the cracks

and people get lost in the darkness.

When they do, we are there to shine a light.

Welcome to Cold Case with Fiona Michelson.”

Wow.

New season?

When can we expect it?

Listen, we have got to get you over for lunch.

I have so many more questions. Are you free?

[clanging]

Apologies. I will be brief.

I know everybody wants to get back

to enjoying their evening,

but I did want to get up here and say a few words

in celebration of 40 years of love

between two pillars of our community, Cecily and Barry.

[applause]

But before I do, I would like to remind everybody

that we do have a case of our latest vintage

up for silent auction, the proceeds of which

will benefit the sheriff's department.

The sheriff is in the house tonight. He is watching.

So give generously.

Now, back to the main event.

Barry, between your tenure as principal

and Cecily's endless charity work,

the Michelson's have touched the lives

of every member of this community.

They've raised a pretty successful daughter too.

So please join me in raising a glass in celebration

of Cecily and Barry.

[applause]

[jazz music begins]

Could we catch up later?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Of course.

[jazz music continues]

- [Raphael] Hey kiddo. - Raphael!

Hi.

Oh, easy now. I'm an old man.

I'm so glad you came.

Well, I couldn't pass up an opportunity

to catch up with an old friend.

- Aw. - Come on. Sit.

Oh boy.

You know, I never thanked you.

- Thanked me? - Yeah.

With all the trouble I got into as a kid,

you could have thrown me in a jail cell

back in the day, but you didn't.

Well, I knew you had a good heart.

I don't mean just that though.

You really encouraged my curiosity.

You let me look at old case files,

answered all my dumb questions.

I mean, really, you started my whole fascination with crime.

I really wouldn't be where I am without you.

[Raphael] You know, that's partly why I came down

here tonight.

Do you know about The Girl with No Name?

Yeah. I stopped at the memorial on my way in.

Well, tell me what you know.

[Fiona] The remains of a baby were found

buried outside the town--

Mm-hm, mm-hm.

...but no one could identify the remains, right?

[Raphael] Mm-hm, I remember the night the call came in,

nobody ever came forward.

There was no missing persons report filed. Nothing!

Why are you telling me this?

Well, I was at a poker game last month.

Bunch of old guys sitting around talking about old stuff,

and the talk turned to The Girl with No Name.

Turns out one of the guys lives near the memorial stone

and he tells me every year somebody comes

and places fresh flowers the same month in the spring,

like an anniversary.

I've been thinking about it ever since.

So, if someone's doing that every year

and it's the same person, that means they miss them,

which means they know them. Right?

[Raphael] Exactly. So I dug out the old case file

and I think I've developed some new leads,

but I just don't have the energy I used to.

So I'm thinking maybe you'd like

to take a look at this case with me.

Like, get a fresh perspective?

Yeah? Well, when do we start?

Well, I have the whole file back at the cabin.

Maybe you could swing by in the morning.

Great. You can make me breakfast.

[Raphael laughs] Yeah. Well, I can see that you're excited,

but I have to warn you, this could get dangerous.

I'm serious.

I don't scare easily.

- Oh, boo! - [both laugh]

[tense music]

[heavy breathing]

- [crickets chirping] - [door opens]

[Raphael] Who's there?

You made a bad choice, friend.

I have a gun!

[tense music]

What the heck are you doing here?

[eerie music]

[Cecily VO] "Out for a run.

Your father made muffins. Love you."

[light music]

[creepy music]

Raph?

[eerie music]

Raph!?

Raph!?

[eerie music continues]

[gasping] Raph!

[crying and gasping]

[dog barking]

Oh God, please!

Please. Wake up!

[gasping]

[phone ringing]

[Phone Operator] 911. What's your emergency?

[camera clicking]

Hey, how you holding up?

Um. I'm okay.

Do you have any thoughts on what happened?

Well, we'll know more when the ME gets a look at him.

But, um--

What?

[Sheriff] There's no signs of a physical struggle.

There's no blood, there's no bruising.

There's nothing like that.

Everybody in town knew Raph had a bad ticker.

His medicine cabinet's full of heart meds.

So what are you saying?

Well, to me it just looks like a burglary going wrong.

There's some desperate individual

looking for valuables,

and a big enough scare would've been enough

to give the old guy a heart attack.

So, so you're saying

that it was just some random break in?

[Sheriff] No, I'm not saying someone's not responsible,

and I will do whatever I can to find that person, I promise.

He meant a lot to me too.

You said you saw someone running away?

Kind of.

I, um, I heard a noise in the backyard,

but by the time I looked up, they were into the tree line.

So--

And why were you here?

Oh, he asked me to come over to look at an old case.

The Girl with No Name.

Why did he wanna go over that old case with you?

He just wanted my help.

It was a case that got away from him and that,

that's what I do.

I, I look at old cases.

But, um--

What is it?

Well, he did say that it could be dangerous,

that maybe people would prefer if the truth was kept secret,

so I--

Do you not believe me?

Oh, I believe you.

This Girl with No Name's a dead end, Fiona.

If someone was trying to put a stop to that case,

we'd all be goners.

Just about everybody I know has tried and failed.

Are you gonna be in town for the next couple of days?

We just may need to ask you some more questions.

Yeah. Yes, of course. Whatever you need.

[Sheriff] And what you need to do is go home

and be with your family.

Let us do our jobs.

If something comes up, we'll give you a call. All right?

[Fiona sniffles]

[light guitar music]

[car door shuts]

[light music continues]

[door closes]

[softly crying]

[Raphael] Do you know about The Girl with No Name?

So I'm thinking maybe you'd like to take a look

at this case with me, like get a fresh perspective.

But I have to warn you, this could get dangerous.

[Fiona] I know my life would not be the same

without Sheriff Kelly,

without his patience, without his support.

He nurtured my curiosities

and he helped me channel my sometimes wild energy

into something very meaningful.

And I know he touched a lot of your lives as well.

I loved him and I will miss him very, very much.

[Woman] I'm so sorry for your loss. He was a wonderful man.

[Daisy] Hey.

Hey, Daisy.

Emily and Marcus send their regards.

I just can't believe it. He was so good to us.

To you especially.

[Sheriff] Thank you for you speech, Fiona.

It meant a lot to us.

Any leads?

Not the more than one I already told you.

And we're still waiting on a medical examiner's

official report but, all signs are still pointing

to a botched robbery and a, a heart attack.

I just can't accept that.

Well, I can attest to his heart condition.

I prescribed him his meds.

I just wish there was something I could do.

Then mourn his loss, and celebrate his life.

I know he wouldn't want any of us moping around

on his account.

Fi, let's go.

[Fiona VO] Now it was clear to me.

I had to do this for Raphael.

My next story would be "The Girl With No Name".

42 years ago on a cold winter day,

the remains of a baby girl were found buried

outside of town near a lake.

There were no identifying features.

No one ever came forward, no missing person report.

Raphael was convinced that someone out there knew something

but never said anything out of fear or guilt, or both.

Looking at the file, I can see why they never solved it.

There's nothing aside from some info on the woman

who found the body, Vicki Collins.

And there's some notes in the file

that seem to have been recently made.

Vineyard, M.H. lawsuit.

I'm not sure what they mean, but I intend to find out.

[Joseph on phone] Fiona, how are you holding up?

Hi. I'm okay, I think.

Listen, I have a favor to ask. Are you free?

Oh!

I'm so sorry I wasn't watching.

- [Joseph] Fiona? - [Fiona gasps]

Oh, hey, sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.

[Fiona] No, it, it's okay. I'm just a little paranoid.

I thought someone was watching me.

Who would be watching you?

Um, I don't know. I've just been a little on edge

with everything that happened with Raph.

Oh, speaking of, did you get it?

Um, coroner's report.

As suspected, Raph died from a heart attack.

I really shouldn't be sharing this,

but I know how much he meant to you.

Hey, are you okay?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.

You don't look fine.

Let's um, let's get you some water, huh?

[Marcus] No, I told you it's a package deal.

The vineyard distribution roots

and the convention and the catering.

Benny, listen, it's all or nothing.

Okay. Talk to your people and we'll circle back tomorrow.

You too. [slams phone on receiver]

Idiot!

Hey, are you okay?

[Marcus] Ugh. I would be if I didn't have to constantly

explain the deal to these morons.

They keep wanting to break things up

and I have to explain to them

that they're buying everything.

It's the whole brand for God's sake.

Okay. Um, would it help if I brought in some new business?

I've got some ideas for expanding our catering outreach.

No, the deal is good. We just have to close it.

Okay.

[Fiona] Listen.

There was something else I wanted to talk to you about.

Um. You know The Girl with No Name, right?

Of course. Yeah. Who doesn't?

So I've been looking into the police reports

and it looks like there was a bone sample taken,

but there wasn't a DNA test done.

Well, probably because

it was a relatively new science at the time.

My guess is they wouldn't have the resources to do it.

So could, could you do it now?

What? Why?

Just, is it possible ?

I guess so. Yeah. The M.E. is a good friend of mine.

It would take a few days to retrieve the sample,

run the test, but it is possible. Is it for your show?

It's for Raph too.

One of the last things he asked me to do

was to look into it for him.

And after all he did for me,

it's, it's the least I could do.

I'll get on it this afternoon.

Great.

Listen, um--

since you are gonna be in town a little longer,

I was thinking maybe we could grab dinner?

Yeah. Yeah. I'd love that.

Actually. It'd be a really good distraction.

Oh. But it's my treat to thank you for, for all your help.

Eh, day after tomorrow?

Yeah. It's a date.

“It's a date.”

[Fiona VO]When I think of Benton Springs,

I think of sunshine and peach pies.

This place never got a bad rep for anything.

Really this is the closest thing we had.

[Daisy] Hey!

[Fiona] Oh, hey!

I took the afternoon off.

How'd you know I was here?

I ran into Joseph. He told me you may be headed this way.

So we're pretty close to the old barn.

Care to have a game?

Serious?

A hundred percent.

[cheers]

Okay!

My money, please.

Okay. I let you win. Just so you know.

[Fiona] Oh, well I think you can afford it

with that fancy corporate job of yours. Right?

Eh, it's not as fancy or as well-paying as you might think.

Not yet at least.

Logistics sounds pretty fancy.

I basically call venues and tell them to be patient,

and then call drivers and tell them to hurry up.

[laughing]

[Fiona] What?

[Daisy] Something wrong?

It's an alert. It says my current location

is being “shared”?

[Daisy] What is that?

It's a tracker.

What?

A tracker!

You know, you put these on, on your phone

or your keys if you lose them.

Well, I, I'm being tracked, Daisy!

[Daisy] You sure? I mean, maybe you spend so much time

digging into old crimes that maybe you're seeing something

that's not there?

No, no. Raph warned me.

He said if I looked into this case

that it would ruffle some feathers.

God, this is creeping me out!

[Fiona grunts]

I'm so glad our daughter's home for a few days!

Sorry. Sorry. That was rude of me.

I don't even know why I'm looking at it.

There's nothing to read.

What is it?

Oh, it's the old case file from The Girl with No Name.

There's nothing in it other than some details

about the woman who found her.

And some weird notes that Raph made in the margin.

Vicky-something, right?

Collins! But do you know her?

Is she still around?

Yeah. I used to see her on bowling nights.

Think she lives over at the trailer park

over by the vineyard.

[Cecily] That trailer park is a blight on this community.

Wouldn't be surprised if some of the kids from there

were responsible for the break-in.

[gloomy music]

Uh, excuse me?

I'm looking for a Vicki Collins.

[Man] You're looking for who?

Vicki Collins.

She lives on over there.

Oh, okay. Great.

[Man] You take care of yourself now, kid.

Thank you!

[light music]

Vicki?

Vicki Collins?

Depends who's asking?

I'm Fiona Michelson.

I think you might know my dad, Barry Michelson?

Oh, he's a bowler. Yeah, he was good. Yeah.

I ain't been able to keep it up

since I had my hip operation.

[laughs] Um,

do you mind if I ask you a few questions?

About?

The Girl with No Name?

Are you a cop?

[Fiona] No. I'm a podcast host about unsolved crimes.

[Vicki] Well, I ain't committed no crimes.

[Fiona] Oh, no, no. I never said you did.

Well, I ain't gonna be on no podcast either.

[Fiona] That's okay. It's, it's, it's just for my own record,

I promise.

All right.

Well, I can tell you this.

I was walking my dog,

and he got on the scent something fierce,

and he dragged me off the road and he started digging.

And before I knew it, well--

it's just a tragedy.

All kinds of tragedies around here.

Um, do the words “M.H. lawsuit” mean anything to you?

Who told you about that?

So you do know what it means?

Don't waste your time.

I spent years telling them about the vineyard,

about Michael Holt, and about how all--

You know what? I, I don't feel like talking anymore.

Oh no, please. Well, what happened at the vineyard,

and how does it connect to The Girl with No Name?

Lots of bad things happened at the vineyard.

So please tell me about it.

Mm-mm, no, we're done here.

Okay, just one more question.

I heard some kids from here might've broken

into Raphael Kelly's house the other day?

Do you know anything about that?

See, that's why I don't talk to people,

because they're always jumping to conclusions.

Anytime a crime happens in this town,

of course it's always those awful people

down at the trailer park.

I did not mean it that way--

You didn't mean--? Of course you meant it!

And what if I had had something to do with his death?

What are you gonna do about it anyway?

[Fiona] I am so sorry.

I did not mean to offend you.

[Vicki] Listen to me Bowler's Daughter,

I yell for help,

and you are definitely not gonna like who comes running.

You got it?

I'm just trying to find the truth.

[Vicki] Word of advice.

You might wanna be careful where you start digging,

'cause you might not like what you find!

Now, get off my porch!

[tense music]

[Fiona] Good night.

[suspenseful music]

Mom! Dad!

What's the matter, sweetie?

Oh my God! What happened?

I don't know. I just came home and found this.

Did you hear anything?

No. I'm gonna call the sheriff.

[Fiona] Anything?

Yeah. Yeah.

It looks like they used a ladder

to get up to the second floor.

We found one just below your bedroom window.

[Barry] Oh, shoot!

I was painting and I had left the dang thing out.

Well, do you have any idea who did it?

No. Wanda's still dusting for prints though,

but it's not looking good.

Do you have any thoughts?

No. I, I don't know.

I mean, between the tracker earlier and, and this tonight.

I don't know.

Wait, I'm sorry. What tracker?

I found a tracker in my bag this afternoon.

Oh my God! Fiona, you have to get--

Mom, please.

Do you still have that tracker?

[Fiona] No. I threw it in the woods. I know it was stupid.

I just, I panicked.

Yeah. Do you have any idea who might want to track you?

Someone who doesn't want me looking into this case?

All right. Well Fiona,

I know I'm not gonna be able to stop you

and I admire your effort,

but I'm telling you that case is a dead end.

I'd leave it be.

All right. We'll just be a few more minutes.

My God. First a tracker. Now a break in!

Are you sure you're okay?

Yeah, I'm, I'm fine.

That kind of thing just doesn't happen around here.

Yeah. But if someone really is trying to follow me,

it means I'm on the right track.

I mean, somebody feels threatened.

Yeah, sorry. I've gotta take this.

Hi.

[Speaker] I can't find the password.

There's a post-it in one of the drawers.

The password is there. I'll be in shortly.

Everything okay?

Yeah. Sorry.

Just a lot going on at work right now.

Hey, did you ever hear much about Michael Holt,

Marcus' father?

Before my time. Why?

Raph made some notes in the case file about a lawsuit.

Does that ring any bells?

It's all news to me. How do you think it all connects?

I don't know, but I'm gonna find out.

I mean, until I get the results back from the lab,

it's the only lead I have.

“Results from the lab”?

[Fiona] Oh yeah. Joseph was able to get a sample

from the case file of The Girl with No Name.

So he's doing DNA tests.

Hmm.

And they never did that before?

Apparently not.

[Daisy] It's wild. Well, I've got errands.

Enjoy your lunch at the vineyard.

Love ya.

See you soon.

[soft music]

- [Fiona] Hello! - [Marcus] Hello!

[Fiona giggling] Hi! Oh, here.

Fresh from my mother's garden.

She told me to never show up empty handed, so--

My mother taught me the same thing.

They're beautiful. Thanks.

These are lovely. Thank you.

Oh, before we go inside,

do you mind if we take a look around the property?

I'd love to check it out before it gets dark.

Yeah. I'll give you the tour.

Great!

This way.

[Marcus] So we're obviously a little off season,

but these vines make a Malbec so dense

with black cherry and vanilla and pepper--

Oh! You'll think you've died and gone to wine Heaven.

I love a good Malbec.

I never realized the trailer park was so close!

[Marcus] Yeah. It was initially built

to house workers for the vineyard.

Unfortunately, I feel like this ruins the aesthetic a bit.

You know?

Um, what about your offices? Can I, can I see those?

Sure.

[Marcus] And the big house here dates back to 1825.

Wow.

But there was a fire in 1845,

which claimed most of the property with a few exceptions:

this cast iron railing here,

and a few of the details out front.

Now throughout the house, you'll see various watercolors.

My father did this one here.

Everybody in the Holt family is a-- is an artist.

But this is the nerve center

where all the boring stuff happens.

I'm sure it's not that boring! [giggles]

Cost reports, banking statements, market updates,

sales projections.

Okay. Maybe it is a little boring.

Um, do you know a woman named Vicki Collins?

She, she worked here 20, maybe 30 years ago.

Can't say it rings a bell,

but you gotta keep in mind,

a lot of my childhood was spent in boarding schools.

Any particular reason?

Oh, it's just something I'm looking into.

Nothing nefarious, I hope?

She didn't tell me much.

Well, if she's spreading idle gossip about the vineyard,

I wouldn't pay it much mind.

Oh, this old house can really inspire the imagination.

Stir up a lot of demons.

I'm starving. Are you hungry?

Yeah, sure.

Let's get lunch.

[eerie music]

Thanks for going to all this trouble. This is incredible!

Oh, you have to try this chorizo!

Mm, I get it from this bodega I love on the upper West side.

You can talk about small charming towns all you want.

But can they do a chorizo like Eduardo?

No.

I think not.

It's amazing! [giggles]

Talk to me about Cold Case. What are you working on?

Anything new? There has to be something. It's been ages.

Well, I, I am working on something new, actually.

Might be my most personal case yet.

Sorry, I just, I have chills. Do you have chills?

Nothing but chills.

Oh. Oh, I'm sorry. No nuts. I'm allergic.

I told you that.

I'm sorry. I got wrapped up in the conversation.

So tell me, Fiona,

you ever feel nervous looking into these old cases?

How so?

Well, I imagine it might be dangerous

looking into people's pasts,

digging up things that should remain buried.

Someone might take offense.

But truth is the most important thing.

Hmm.

That's what Raph taught me anyway.

To Raph.

- [All] To Raph. - [glasses clink]

Um, do you have a bathroom I could use?

Yeah.

Use the one upstairs. It's much nicer.

[Fiona] Okay, great.

[suspenseful music]

[closes door]

[Daisy VO] There's a post-it in one of the drawers.

The password is there.

[suspenseful music continues]

[music intensifies]

[knocks]

Fiona?

- [Fiona] Oh! - [Marcus] Did you get lost?

I sure did. This place is a maze.

Yeah. Happens to me all the time.

Should we get back to lunch?

Sure.

Well, thanks again for the invite.

Oh, it's my pleasure.

I hope I didn't smother you with my fandom.

[Fiona] No, not at all.

I just need a few hundred thousand more people like you

and I'll be great.

We should get going.

Fiona, it's a pleasure. You're always welcome.

Thanks. Bye!

Okay.

[phone rings]

Hey, we have a problem.

You know what to do.

[Joseph] You know, Fiona, even though it's been marred

by tragedy, it has been great having you in town.

Wasn't quite the same without you here.

Oh, I'm sure you managed just fine. [giggles]

I do wonder sometimes

how things might have worked out if you hadn't left.

Yeah. I mean, me too.

It was definitely the right call,

but being back makes me realize how much

I miss my family, and Daisy, and Raphael,

and, um, you .

Oh, thank you.

Thanks. This looks good.

[Fiona] Yeah.

Oh, so you were telling me about your practice?

Yeah. Um.

Small family practice. Yeah. I get to help so many people.

I wasn't expecting that and I love it. You know.

I feel like I have everything I need,

or just about everything. Um.

- Fiona? - [Fiona clearing throat]

Are you okay?

Fiona? What's wrong?

Fiona? What, what? Call an ambulance!

She's, she's going into anaphylactic shock. Okay. Okay.

- [Fiona] EpiPen, - [Joseph] Let me look.

Is your EpiPen in here? I don't see it.

- Okay. Stay with me. - [Fiona gasping]

You need to calm down. Calm down.

Okay. And then just slow your breathing up

as much as you can.

Help is coming, okay?

Where's that ambulance?

You're gonna be all right. I promise you.

All done.

Thanks.

I really don't understand how this happened.

I mean, we told them about the allergy.

And the chef swears they took every precaution.

This must've been some kind of mix up.

Thankfully, it was just a trace amount.

You should be fine in a few hours. I'm taking you home.

What? What about my car?

You're in no condition to drive.

We'll, we'll figure that out later. Can you stand up?

Careful.

[Fiona laughs] Thank you, Dr. Joe.

I still don't know what happened to my EpiPen.

I always have it in my bag.

You must have... forgotten it?

I don't think so.

Anyway. Heck of a first date, right?

Well, technically it's not our first date.

Well, Joe and Fiona, version 2.0.

“Version 2.0”. I like that.

It would go against all the rules of decorum

if I kissed you right now, right?

Probably.

So. I'll kiss you.

Goodnight, Dr. Joe.

Goodnight, Fiona.

[nervous laughter]

[phone ringing]

Hello?

[Distorted voice] This was a warning. Stop.

This was warning. Stop.

[Vicki]Word of advice. You better watch

what you start digging into,

'cause you may not like what you find.

[Distorted voice] This was a warning. Stop.

What's wrong?

Stop. Stop.

And get off my porch!

[Distorted voice] Stop.

[gasping]

Fiona, what's wrong?

Nothing. Just, just a nightmare.

Oh, my poor baby!

We should sue that restaurant.

I mean, seriously, if Joseph hadn't been there,

who knows what could have happened. Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm fine.

[Cecily] Okay. Well good. 'Cause he's here.

What?

Joseph. He's downstairs having coffee with your father.

Brought your car back.

Joseph! She's up!

Mom!

What?

Well at least give me a robe!

Here.

[Cecily laughs]

Here's our hero now!

Oh, hardly.

So how are you feeling?

[Fiona] Oh, I'm, I'm much better now. Thank you.

Good, good.

[Cecily] Well, I'll give you two some privacy.

So are you sure, you're feeling okay?

Yeah. I mean, as well as can be expected.

Um, but, could you close the door? This is important.

[door closes]

What's going on?

I don't think last night was an accident.

What?

After you dropped me off last night,

I got a call from an anonymous number.

It was a warning. They said to stop.

first the tracker, the, the break in,

and now this?

Look, Fiona, I'm your friend and your doctor.

So do me a favor. Call the sheriff

and stay home and rest.

Okay. Fine.

Okay.

I gotta run to work,

but I'll swing back by and check on you, okay?

Thanks.

[suspenseful music]

[knocking]

[Fiona] I have the evidence. Years of abuse by Michael Holt!

I believe you!

Good for you.

[Fiona] No, this isn't going to be enough!

I need witnesses. I need testimonies.

Look, I spent all morning trying to contact

the women in these files, and I couldn't find them.

And the few that I did refused to take my call.

What happened to them?

Come in.

Thank you.

Well, took guts coming back here.

I don't scare easily.

Besides I don't see anger in your eyes.

Well, you don't know me.

[Fiona] Well, I know that you want to do the right thing,

and I know that people judge you unfairly.

And it probably has something to do with

how Michael Holt discredited you.

Michael Holt was a predator.

He hit on almost every young woman who came to work for him.

A bunch of us came forward

and he did everything he could to quiet us down.

First. He tried to pay us off.

And the ones who didn't take the money, he threatened.

I wouldn't be bought off and I wouldn't be threatened.

But I really did try to tell everybody here

what he was like,

and nobody would listen.

So, go on the record. Tell your story.

[Vicki] No, I am old,

and I'm not gonna put myself through that again.

Look, just do yourself a favor and leave this one alone.

Oh, I'm onto something. People are rattled.

They're-- they're trying to stop me!

I think it connects to The Girl with No Name,

to Raphael, everything.

How do you know that?

[Fiona] Well, in The Girl with No Name case file

before he died,

Raphael made a note.

Vineyard MH lawsuit.

So he saw a connection too.

I just haven't been able to put all the pieces together yet.

Well, you don't need me.

[Fiona] Yes, I do. I need your voice.

Listen, just, just walk away before somebody makes you.

Vicki, please.

[Vicki] No, I, you know, I-- I think that we are done,

and I think that you need to leave.

If I--

[Vicki] I said go.

Now get! Go on!

You know that I said I didn't see anger in your eyes?

I meant it. All I see is fear.

[door closes]

[tense music]

[Sheriff] Fiona, we've been looking for you.

What can I do for you, sheriff?

I need to search your car.

[Fiona] What? Are you serious?

May I?

Well, do I have any say in the matter?

It'd be a whole lot easier if you just let me have a look.

[tense music]

Well, Wanda, we're gonna have to call this one in.

Right by the passenger seat.

No, but that's not mine.

I, I don't even know what that is.

[Sheriff] We can talk about it more down at the station.

Get an examination done.

Well, how do I know you didn't just plant it?

Feel free to review the footage.

[Fiona] What's going on?

Seems like someone's playing a prank on you.

What?

We got an anonymous tip that you were trafficking drugs,

and bringing 'em from the city

down there to that trailer park.

We couldn't afford to ignore that Fiona,

not with your priors.

“My priors”? I-- I was a teenager!

[Wanda] Even still, we had to follow through,

but we ran a test.

It was just baking powder.

[Fiona] Unbelievable.

Why would someone do this to you?

I don't know.

Sheriff, why would someone break into my house?

Why would someone want to poison me?

Why would someone send me a threatening phone call

and then plant fake drugs on me?

Based on your department's banner police work so far,

what do you think?

Am I free to go?

It's nothing personal, Fiona.

We're just doing our jobs.

Right.

[gloomy music]

[Fiona] My files! They took my evidence!

[Wanda] This is Benton Spring Sheriff's Department.

If you are having an emergency, please hang up and dial 911.

If not, leave us a message and someone will get back to you.

[Wanda] Benton Springs Sheriff's Department,

Deputy Wanda Clark speaking.

Oh good. Wanda, it's you. Hi, it's Fiona Michelson.

[Wanda] Miss Michelson, how can I help you?

I think you have some things that belong to me.

Um, what exactly?

I was just in lockup and there's nothing there.

Documents, personal documents. I, I need them returned.

Well, as I say, there's nothing there.

Is Sheriff Walker there?

Sheriff Walker actually hasn't clocked in yet.

He is running a bit late now that you mention it.

All right, fine.

Well thanks for your help anyway, Wanda.

[Wanda] Hey, I hope you find what you're looking for.

And I am sorry about yesterday, again.

If there's anything that you need and we can help with,

just let us know.

Right. Thanks.

[knocking]

I already told you, no!

I need you.

Why? Why put a target on my back?

You said you had evidence.

It was stolen.

By who?

The sheriff! Well, I think, I don't know for sure.

I feel like I'm going crazy,

but I, I just, I need you more than ever.

No. Find someone else.

There is nobody else!

Look, I know that there are other women out there, okay?

We just need one voice to step forward

and then the rest will follow. Please!

Vicky, be an example!

I'm sorry kid. I really am. I just, I'm not strong enough.

[Daisy] You got arrested and didn't tell me?

I'm onto something, Daisy.

They stole my evidence!

Clearly it was just a setup for that!

All of my evidence about the abuse at the vineyard,

it's gone!

It connects to The Girl with No Name, Daisy.

Fiona, stop it! Please just stop this!

I'm worried about you. Your folks are worried about you!

But I have evidence. Well, I-- I had evidence.

Okay, what is it gonna take for you to stop this?

[Fiona] I have to get into Marcus's office.

I need access to those records and you can let me in.

[Daisy scoffs]

[Fiona] Please, Daisy, once I show you, you will get it!

I know this job is important to you,

but please, you have to see what happened to these women.

They were silenced for years.

Some of them had their lives ruined, Daisy.

Their story deserves to be told.

Fine. Let's go.

[Daisy] So all of the files that can't fit

into the offices upstairs get lumped into the storage.

Ugh. You always get me out of a pinch.

[Daisy] All right, just a little bit further.

It's just right this way.

[Fiona] Daisy?

Why did the emergency lights come on?

[struggling]

[dramatic music]

[Fiona VO] So that's the story of how I ended up locked in the

basement of the Holt Vineyard, fearing for my life.

But little did I know at that moment,

the worst was yet to come.

[Fiona] Can anybody hear me?

Can anybody hear me?

Let me out!

[Daisy] No one can hear you, Fiona.

Daisy. Daisy. Is that you? Are you okay?

We, we've gotta get outta here.

You didn't give us any choice.

“Us”? What, what, what, what do you mean “us”?

You should have just left it alone!

This is my one chance at happiness and I just--

I can't let you ruin it.

Marcus? You're in this with Marcus?

He doesn't love Emily like he loves me.

The only reason they're still together

is because we're selling the vineyard.

He's selling the vineyard?

[Daisy] Yes.

And because Holt Vineyards is a family company,

we cannot have all the colorful history

that you're so keen on uncovering coming out.

Emily is never gonna let you get away with this.

She'll, she'll divorce Marcus. She'll get half the estate.

No, Marcus has an ironclad prenup. She gets nothing.

So this was all about money?

No Fi, this isn't about money. This is my life.

It's my one chance to get out, and with someone I love.

So what are you gonna do with me?

Just, just keep me down here as your prisoner?

People are gonna come looking for me.

No, we just need to keep you quiet,

just until the sale goes through.

And then what? You'll just let me out?

Marcus has a plan.

Daisy!

Daisy, help me. I'm your friend.

I'm your best friend!

[Daisy] I'm sorry. Fiona.

Daisy! Wait, Daisy!

Hey.

We did what we had to do.

I know, I know. But--

this just feels like too much.

This is more than the restaurant.

I will talk to Fiona.

Everyone has their price, even her.

You sure about that?

Positive.

Look, the sale will go through in a few days,

and when it does, we will have enough money

to live the life you always dreamed of.

I could be free of my father's shadow in this awful business

and everything will be fine.

[tense music]

[Emily] No, I decided to come back early.

I know. I just couldn't take another day

of vacuous city fashion parties.

Everyone's so fake.

Now all I wanna do is take a bath,

a nice bottle of wine.

[Fiona] Help me!

Can anybody hear me?

I'm down here! Please!

Help!

I'm down here!

I'm in the basement!

Hello? Is anybody there?

Daisy can you hear me, please!

Please help me!

[Emily] Fiona? What are you doing down here?

What's going on?

[Fiona] Are you with them?

With who? Why are you in the cellar?

Okay. I-- I'll explain everything.

Just, just-- I need you to be quiet. Okay?

So when are you gonna talk to her?

[Marcus] In time, in time.

Why is Emily's car here?

What!

It can't be true. It just can't.

[Fiona] Emily, I-- I'm sorry, but it is.

[Emily] Marcus is not like that!

He is a good man. He would never harm anyone--

[Fiona] He, he tried to poison me!

He locked me down here,

and I don't think he's planning on letting me out.

Look, we don't know what he's capable of.

And we're both obstacles to him. Okay?

So we need to get out of here now.

Okay.

[Marcus] Emily! I didn't realize you were back.

Are are you okay?

Is what she told me true?

I don't know what she told you,

but I realize how this must look.

Fiona is in the midst of a deep mania.

Daisy told me about her arrest,

her fantasy about the vineyard,

no evidence, of course.

We have doctors on the way.

We only kept her down here to ensure

that she wouldn't hurt herself.

He's lying!

So it's not true? About the things your father did?

About your affair-- about selling the vineyard?

Sweetie, I will never leave you.

[Daisy] Honey! I checked the bedroom. She's not there.

Are you sure--?

“Honey”?

That is not what it seems.

You couldn't hack it could you?

You couldn't run this place like your father!

You start to lose money, so you take the easy way out?

Just sell up and run away?

[Marcus] Emily, you are not safe with her!

I can handle myself!

[Fiona] Run!

[Marcus and Daisy screaming]

Come on!

[frantic music]

[Fiona] Help!

- Help! Call the police! - [dog barking]

Is anybody out there?

Come on! Come on!

Somebody!

He's trying to kill us!

Help!

Hurry! Faster!

Come on!

[Emily] I'm gonna stall him!

- [Fiona] What? - Just go!

[Marcus grunting]

[Emily] Marcus, no!

[fist smacks]

[Fiona] Help! Help!

Somebody, please!

Help! [Fiona panting]

[screaming]

It didn't have to come to this.

If you hadn't have stuck your nose where it didn't belong,

everybody would still be happy.

But that's all over now.

[metal impacts]

Come on. Come on.

Let's go. Hurry!

- [Marcus moans] - [Vicki] This way!

[groaning]

[Fiona] Thank you Vicki. I think you just saved my life.

[Vicki] Well, I-- You know, I heard the screams

and I saw him chasing you,

and he looked so much like his father.

It just brought back all these old emotions.

All the rage.

I had to do something.

Well, thank you.

You're welcome.

So what now? The police?

I don't know.

What do you mean?

I think the sheriff might be helping them.

I'm not sure we can trust him.

Yeah

But we have to do something. Emily's in trouble.

What about the sheriff's Deputy? Wanda?

We can take my truck.

You did what?

[Marcus] I have Emily back at the house, but Fiona got away.

Now I assume that you know what to do?

This has gone too far.

[Marcus] You're the one who came to me, Sheriff.

Your entire department would be closed right now

if it weren't for my financial help.

You are in this with us,

and you either help me finish this,

or we all go down together!

- [tense music] - [tires rolling]

[engine quits]

- [Fiona] Shoot! There he is. - [Vicki] Get down!

[buckle clicks]

Go. I'll distract him.

How are you gonna do that?

Don't worry about it.

[Vicki] Sheriff! Sheriff!

- Ms. Collins? - [Vicki] Yeah!

Hey, you alone?

Yes. Listen, I need your help.

I was just accosted by a man over there.

We gotta go. You gotta help me

'cause he might leave!

Deputy?

Fiona? I'll get the sheriff.

No, no, no!

I came here to see you.

Okay.

[Fiona] The whole family is covering up

years of abuse at that vineyard

and I think the sheriff is involved.

Oh, that's a serious accusation!

[Fiona] I know, but I think I can prove it.

When I was here the other day, I had evidence in my bag,

proof that the whole Holt family has been covering up years

of abuse of staff by Michael Holt.

The sheriff stole it all!

They're trying to keep the truth covered

so they can sell the vineyard!

They have tracked me. They, they, they poisoned me.

They, they kidnapped me, all to keep the truth hidden.

Please? You have to believe me.

Okay, he has been acting erratically lately.

A little on edge, but--

How many times has he talked about a lack of resources?

Do you really think that Marcus couldn't convince him

to help for a piece of that sale?

Look, if if he took the documents from me,

they, they might still be here.

Look, please. We have to hurry.

They have Emily and,

and I don't know what they'll do to her!

I am putting a lot on the line here.

I'm telling you the truth. I swear!

I'll check his office. Watch the door.

Okay.

[tense music]

[gloomy music]

[Fiona] If I am right about the files,

then I'm right about the rest of it.

[Sheriff] Hey Wanda, let's throw this one in the tank

for filing a false police report--

Have a seat over there.

[sheriff exhales]

The department was facing closure.

I was just trying to get funding to secure our future.

Not like this!

I know.

It went too far.

Sheriff Walker, I need to ask you something

and I need you to tell me the truth.

Okay.

Did you have anything to do with Raphael's death?

I overheard you two talking at the anniversary party

about this file that Raph had; The Girl with No Name.

When I told Marcus,

he asked me to go over there and get it from him.

What the heck are you doing here?

We need to talk, Raph.

Really? About what?

About that case; The Girl with No Name.

We didn't talk. We just argued about that file.

[Raphael]You need to get outta here, son.

Raph, this is bigger than both of us!

You need to get your sorry rear end outta my house, boy!

- [Sheriff] Raph! - [Raphael] Now!

There's no bargaining with Raphael.

We had a few choice words and he threw me out.

When I left I guess it was too much for him, Fiona,

and he had a heart attack.

Ugh!

[crying] I'm so sorry.

[Wanda] I need to get over to that vineyard.

Emily might be in trouble and, um--

Sheriff, I'm gonna need to--

[Sheriff] I'm not going anywhere.

I made my bed and I will lie in it.

Deputy, you make this right.

You make it right.

Fiona, come with me.

[sheriff exhales]

[tense music]

[police siren sounds]

Thank goodness you found her. We were so worried.

She's terribly troubled,

spouting all kinds of crazy conspiracy theories.

Thank you.

[Wanda] Of course, Mr. Holt. Do you mind if I take

a look around?

Wanda, now is not a good time!

Yeah, well, unfortunately for you, I have a rush warrant.

Judge is a friend of mine.

Show me the cellar, Mr. Holt. Now.

[Fiona] She's here!

I knew you'd come back.

You are under arrest for false imprisonment.

And that's just for starters.

You have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can, and--

[Daisy] No, you can't do that!

Hands!

[Daisy] You don't have the authority!

You wait until Sheriff Walker finds out about this.

I'm afraid he's preoccupied.

He'll be under investigation

soon by the state for corruption.

And we have evidence that you two offered

to pay him a cut of the vineyard sale

to keep the past abuses hidden?

I just wanted a better life.

I wanted what you had, what we promised to do together,

to leave town and start a new adventure.

And everything was going fine until you got back here!

You ruined everything, Fi!

Daisy. You did that to yourself.

[Daisy sobbing]

All right, you two, let's go.

Let's go!

You okay? Hey.

[uplifting music]

[Cecily] What's the matter, Honey?

[Fiona] I just feel like I failed, Mom!

I never solved the mystery of The Girl with No Name.

I know it's all connected.

I just--

[Dad] Hey, you helped a lot of women.

Maybe take the win where you can.

Thanks.

Thank you both of you.

We love you.

[phone ringing]

Oh, it-- It's Joseph.

He's helping me look into The Girl with No Name.

Look into it. How?

Uh, DNA testing.

[Barry] Well, don't keep him waiting.

Okay.

Hey, Joseph.

Sorry I've been outta touch. It's, it's been a little--

[Joseph] Listen, I need to talk to you right away.

Okay. Where are you?

[Joseph] In your driveway.

Oh, okay. I'll be right back.

[Fiona] Hey.

Oh? Oh, whoa, whoa.

I'm, I'm all right.

Wait, so, so what's, what's the news?

I think you need to see for yourself.

I crosschecked the results with all the DNA the police had.

when you were a teenager it was standard practice

to run DNA tests.

I've triple checked. The results are conclusive.

Fiona, The Girl with No Name was your older sister.

[dramatic music]

Hey guys. Everything okay?

Where's Mom?

She said she was gonna go for a run.

I guess she's upstairs changing. Why?

[Fiona] Mom!

Fiona?

Mom!

Mom. Are you up there?

Mom, we need to talk!

Mom!

Hey, my, my suitcases. They're gone.

Wait, they had all my tapes.

My, my evidence, my notes! They're gone!

Will somebody tell me what the heck's going on?

[Fiona] Dad, The Girl with No Name. It's Mom's daughter!

My sister!

No.

Yes.

Barry, do you have any idea where Cecily could have gone?

I, uh--

No, no.

Hey.

I do.

[Fiona] Mom!

[Barry] Cecily, what are you doing?

Is that gasoline?

Mom, stop! Mom!

I know who The Girl with No Name is!

I know who she is!

[Cecily crying] Rose!

What?

Her name was Rose.

Mom. It's okay.

I-- I just wanna understand.

My family wasn't rich. I grew up in the trailer park.

When I got a job at the Vineyard, I was just a teenager.

But Mr. Holt made me feel like a million bucks.

And he got me pregnant.

And I promised him that I would keep it a secret.

I moved into the vineyard. I gave birth.

But after a few days, she died.

Michael told me it was crib death.

And he promised me,

he swore that he could make this all go away

if I just kept my mouth shut.

And he gave me enough money to reinvent myself.

Come back to town, a new person.

And I met your father.

And when they found the body,

I knew, I just knew it was her, but I couldn't bear it.

I just, I had to lock that part of me away!

And you, you dredged it all back up!

I overheard you at the party.

I just wanted the file,

to stop this before it all started again.

And I went to the cabin. I just went to talk to him.

He was dead when I got there.

And I don't know what came over me.

I just started tearing the place apart,

looking for that file.

And then you showed up and I-- I ran away.

That was you?

I have worked so hard to just--

to just be someone in this town.

I couldn't let you get this story out, Baby.

It would ruin me. It would ruin our family.

I can't, I can't let anybody know about this.

I can't, I can't live this nightmare again!

Mom. Mom! It's okay! It's okay.

You weren't the only person taken advantage of.

People will understand!

Telling the truth is the only way we can prevent this

from ever happening again.

- [Cecily sobbing] - [tense music]

[Cecily crying] I'm so, sorry!

I'm so sorry.

Mom!

I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry!

It's okay, mom.

I'm so sorry.

[Fiona VO] Welcome to Cold Case with Fiona Michelson.

This season, we solve the mystery of

The Girl with No Name.

There are many twists and turns in this story.

Intrigue, betrayal, guilt.

But ultimately this is about family.

My own mother was so ashamed of her past

that she was ready to lose everything

in order to keep the truth buried forever.

The past that haunted her was facilitated by another family;

the Holts.

Marcus was so keen to cover up his own sins

that he tracked my every move, attempted to poison me,

turned me against my best friend,

and tried to hide the real truth from the entire town.

[Fiona] So, I have some news!

I know I've been back and forth into the city

a lot these past few weeks promoting my show

and I think it's time I decide to settle down somewhere,

so,

- I'm coming home. - [Cecily] Oh!

[Barry] Alright! That's what I was hoping you were gonna say.

Oh, that's great!

[Fiona] I wanna be near you, Mom and Dad.

I-- I really have just missed you so much.

And Dr. Joe, I think we have unfinished business

that goes back to high school?

So if you want, I'd really like to revisit that.

You had me at “Dr. Joe.”

[laughing]

Hey, I say we drink to that, huh?

- [Cecily] Yes. - [Barry] Should we?

[Fiona] Thanks, Dad.

[Fiona VO] I remain undeterred.

Like a good friend once taught me,

you have to shine a light on the darkness,

even if you don't like what you see.

Only then can we begin to heal.
