I can buy you some lunch, you

can decide if I'm trustworthy.

Or are you one of those

vegetarian kids?

No. I like hamburgers.

Good.

Put your seatbelt on.

Isabelle Saunders

just confessed to the murder.

She's trying to protect Lawton.

I don't believe she did it.

I don't either, but we're

gonna hold her in custody.

- What?

- Amber Alert.

Jenna Wahl, 16.

She went missing. They thought

it was a classic teen runaway,

but then a cashier reported

seeing her at a burger joint.

That's from

their security camera.

- Oh, no. We've got to get Isabelle to talk.

- Every cop in the city's

looking for this guy,

and he takes another girl?

How crazy is he?

Extreme stress makes

people act out...

people with anger issues go

into a rage,

people with drinking problems

drink to excess.

And deviant control freaks

find new victims to abduct.

Mmhmm. Well, find this one.

I just gotta go

into this place real quick.

- I'll wait for you here.

- Are you kidding?

No way is it safe

out here for you.

You got a lot to learn, Jenna.

Yeah, but I was thinking

I should go home.

My parents will be looking for me.

That's a good idea.

But first you should

come in with me.

Real quick, just to be safe.

And then I'll take you back home.

You got my word on that.

Ugh! Ugh!

You'll like me, you'll see.

When you get to know me better.

No! Please. Please!

Please let me go!

Help!

Help me!

I don't want

to talk to you anymore.

You want to hurt Tim.

And you want to protect him?

Can you tell me why?

You think I'm stupid.

You think he fooled me,

but I KNOW he loves me.

Your parents love you.

You had friends who loved you,

and you will have friends again

when you go back home.

Tim says the only one

who loves me is him.

Isabelle...

that was a lie Tim told you.

He left you

in that basement alone.

Because you scared him.

He wants you to take the blame

for murdering that woman.

You think he misses you?

What if I told you that Tim has

already taken another girl?

He wouldn't do that.

Isabelle,

stop protecting someone

who doesn't care about you.

He said he was gonna

come back for me.

But he didn't come back.

Isabelle, you didn't hit

anybody, did you?

I heard Tim talking to that lady

on the phone a couple times.

She came over to see him,

but I was outside.

I tried to make her go away.

Are you OK?

I told you,

we don't want you here!

But she followed me.

My name is Maya.

Tim came up.

He killed her.

So she wouldn't tell anyone

about me.

You see what you m...

what you made me do?

Are you proud of yourself?

I'm sorry, I'm sorry,

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry,

I'm sorry.

Do you know

where Tim could be now?

Where he's taken this girl?

Where he took me first.

He took me to school.

Tim's mother, you said

she was a cleaner

at a school

that closed down, right?

Everton College.

Closed in 1987.

Still abandoned.

That's where he is.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

- What?

- Wait here. Watch the doors.

Any sign of Lawton or the girl,

you just buzz us.

Aidan, I need

to be a part of this.

You are a part of this, Leo,

but I need level heads in there.

So, just watch the door

and let us do our job.

If you're good, Jenna,

I can be really

nice to you. It's so much better

if you're good, Jenna.

- Please...

- Oh.

Please, please stop.

- Stop it.

- I'll teach you how,

- OK?

- Please...

- But you gotta be positive.

- Please.

- Hey, you gotta believe in us.

- Please.

You gotta believe in us, OK?

You gotta believe in us.

Police! Don't move!

Drop the scissors, Lawton,

and move away from the girl.

- No, you... you got this wrong, officer.

- Do it now!

I found this girl, and she was

trespassing, all right?

On private property.

I was gonna call you guys.

This is your last warning.

If you think I won't pull

this trigger, you're wrong.

I'll kill her.

- Ow!

- Drop it!

You don't understand.

I understand.

Just give me an excuse to put

you down right here and now.

Drop it!

Get down on your knees!

You don't understand.

On your knees!

All the way down!

Hands behind your back!

Don't move. Don't move!

Tim Lawton, you're under arrest

for the murder of Maya Henson,

two counts of kidnapping

and forcible confinement,

aggravated assault,

sexual assault,

and a lot more coming.

Once again it's begin

I'm stuck and...

Just give me one minute

with him.

- Back off, Leo.

- One minute.

Hey! Back off.

It's a good thing

you didn't let me go in there.

You were in love

with Maya Henson, weren't you?

Yeah... years ago.

You should've told me, Leo.

Through the same pale grin

I gave

Just breathe

Just breathe

And it goes from the gutter

And flat on the floor

There's no use riding waves

Crash to the shore

Let's go.

Disaster paths, aftermaths

They never stopped

looking for you.

OK?

And I'm at best an island

And you're an ocean

You surround

And you came in

You OK?

Yeah.

You think Isabelle's

gonna be OK?

Yeah. Yeah.

Family support and some time,

I think she has a good chance.

I just...

I can't stop thinking.

About what?

Who else is out there?

How many more Isabelles?

One less than yesterday.

Just breathe
