Let go of me!

Wait, wait!

- Drop the boy.

- Please, let go!

Let the boy go.

I'll give you three minutes head start.

In a few minutes,

this place will be flooded with cops.

You don't stand a chance!

Go ahead, run for it.

Hey, kid.

I'm Detective John Koski.

You're gonna be safe now, Josh.

You're OK. You stay here.

- You lied to me!

- You kidnapped a child.

So what?

Things left was...

by the departed...

have an energy

a vibrational energ...

- So...

- A turkey!

They ar... are late in the slab today.

Is that right? This is good.

Using your design.

- So that means you'll be [...] anymore?

- You say it like it is a bad thing.

- French toast.

- Oh, maybe tomorrow.

You always say that.

What about Rory?

She's hungry too.

Oh! OK.

...in an envelope

with their belongings to your sister...

- Sarah?

- Yes?

You're wasting it.

You know, I will eat the rest, and

I don't feel like getting into this.

Alright, there we go!

Sensing that was...

- Come on in.

Hi, Mrs. Noble.

How you're feeling, monkey?

- I still got this cold.

- A little medicine...

...and a little play time...

This is for you

and your friend Rory.

OK, um... I just uh... really prefer this

not being in the house.

I'm sorry.

No, no, it's fine, Megan.

Just not in the house.

- The cow says 'moos'.

- There Rory, your turn.

Revolver black, semiautomatic.

The second suspect is a

black male juvenile, 5-5 and 140.

License plate is DGU290,

that's Delta-Gulf-Uniform.

It's described as a dirty champagne coloured,

but the registration still has it

as a red Pontiac...

...so keep an eye after that.

Both suspects have a warrant pending.

And that's it.

Thanks. Hit the streets, be careful!

Sit down, John!

The family has filed an unlawful death suit.

Can you believe it?

This whole thing must bring back some memories, huh?

What were you thinking out there, John?

I guess I wasn't.

But something told me that he would

do it again when he get out.

Something told you.

That's not a great defense.

- You want me to make a statement?

- I got your report, I can handle it.

Like last time, right?

John, don't worry. You are a good man.

You got a good record.

You've helped a lot of people, a lot of children,

every state in the country.

- They won't forget that.

- Neither will the ones I put away.

You got 4 more months and you're out.

You should depart your post with some dignity.

Retirement.

What am I gonna do?

This is... my life.

I'll tell you I won't miss it.

Everything is different,

everything has changed, John.

The whole world... the... ther... there's...

No respect, no sense of responsibility.

Dignity. You have that.

It is more than most, I'll say.

I appreciate your help, Jack.

Yeah, why don't you take some time...

go work on the plane, get some rest?

Soon all I'll have is time.

Amy, what are you doing?

You should get ready for bed, honey. Come on!

- Where are we going?

- What do you mean?

Rory says we're going away.

Well Rory said that? Oh that's... interesting.

No, we're not going away.

Staying right here.

Listen, you're a big girl now.

Leave it on.

Rory likes it on.

Why don't you show Rory

what a big girl you are...

...by sleeping with it off tonight?

I didn't turn it on. Rory turned it on.

You're a big girl, Amy. Get some sleep.

That better?

Yeah, me too.

- What was that?

- Shh.

It's uh...

your totem man fell off the wall.

Well, that shouldn't...

shake the whole house.

Jim?

- Amy? - Is she's

out here? - Amy?

- Calm down. Behind me.

- Jim, where is she? Amy?

Damn it!

Go back and check the rest of the house.

Megan, It's Sarah.

Is Amy with you?

No, she's not here, we can't find her!

Amy!

Thanks, Fred.

- Is the chief inside?

- Yeah, he's inside.

- It's his sister's kid, you know?

- Yeah, I heard about it.

I told him.

Mr. Noble?

Detective Koski.

- Where is everybody?

- John?

John!

Look, you guys know each other.

He's my brother's friend.

I'm so glad you're here.

I'll handle it, James.

Glad you got here.

Where were you?

I was out. Listen, how long's

the kid been gone?

- A couple of hours, sometime between 11 and midnight.

- Ooh.

- Search party?

- Already out. The dogs too.

I know she hasn't been gone 24 hours...

...but this is my family, my niece.

Jack, we'll find her.

Is that the babysitter?

Yeah, Megan.

She lives down the block.

I want to talk to her.

I need to see the child's room.

- Sure! Sarah would...

- Yes, sure.

Don't touch. Try not to touch anything.

Now detective, this window...

this window was open when we first came in.

I closed that.

Anything missing?

The... her... uh... her polar bear is gone.

She likes trains?

No forced entry.

You lock up at night?

- You didn't lock the doors?

- I don't know.

No, I don't think so.

Sarah, what if we start

to lock the damn doors...

He need to study himself

caring for a child.

- Let me see it.

- How about the window upstairs?

That's what he wanted you to think.

See? No prints.

Not even yours.

Wool gloves wipe everything off.

Maybe we'll get a fiber.

Given your profession Mr. Noble...

would you say that there are certain

individuals who may hold a grudge against you?

I am an executive at a oil company, sir.

I mean everybody

hates me these days, right?

I was thinking of your

previous line of work.

You were a prosecutor, yes?

Yes.

Why? Are... are you thinking that it

was somebody that I might... might have put away?

That's a natural conclusion. Yes.

I'll need copies of your case files.

Yeah, of course.

Whatever... whatever you need.

Does your daughter have any special places

she likes to play?

Secret hideouts, playgrounds?

No. I mean, I don't think so.

She usually plays at home.

She know her phone number?

Work boots, male.

Not very heavy.

how long they've been here.

They could be fresh, in this weather,

they couldn't been here a couple of days.

What, she's been our babysitter

since we moved here.

If you think of anything,

remember anything...

...call me anytime, night or day.

I won't be sleeping and I doubt you will be either.

Detective, do you... really think

Megan's involved in this?

Mr. Noble, it's my job...

...to think that everyone is involved in this...

until proven otherwise.

Let's just hope for a happy and

positive resolve before morning.

That's the stuff from the law firm?

James Noble cases?

- Good.

- Have fun.

Thank you.

Poly's are done.

The babysitter passed. The father passed.

Mrs. Noble was deceptive.

And I've got the babysitter waiting for you.

Good.

Ms. Megan Maguire.

Full-time student,

part-time nanny, right?

I've been waiting an hour for this.

Alright. You've done your homework.

You probably know Amy

better than her own parents.

- Given the situation.

- What situation?

Well, I can't say...uh, that I got

real warm fuzzy between those two.

They have their problems,

like... like everyone.

Tell me about the girl, Amy.

Was she resentful of

these...uh, problems?
