...you just move up a notch

in the who-dun-it list.

Hey, wait a minute.

That's why you took me out here,

to keep me close,

shake me down.

I've got nothing to hide, Koski.

Do you?

Well... didn't see that coming, did you?

Hey, kid.

Kid, you're alright?

Barking...

...many dogs.

Church steeple,

smell of the sea.

Smell of the sea?

Dogs.

Far away, right?

And a church, tall steeple with a bell tower.

The trailer yard in Baker Street.

- How do you know?

- I used to go to church there.

Overlooks the harbour,

they put a kennel in...

...it changes [...] two years ago.

Can you walk? Come on.

Let's go.

Security!

It's lot #63.

It's located at the far back.

Looks like somebody was here.

They left in a hurry.

- Oh Jesus!

- What'd you got?

Take it easy, Koski.

Why would I take you here...

if I had anything to do

with abducting the girl?

This is crazy!

You knew this place before I do.

Could just easily

have been you.

I mean, I have an alibi. What's yours?

What were you doing that night, huh?

You did your research,

You fed me the clues.

You knew I'd figure it out,

you planned it that way.

When we got here,

everything has been cleared out, just in time.

Alright. How's this for incriminating?

Old cop, close to retirement...

wants to go out with a big rescue,

get his name [...],

even a book deal.

You don't like it, do you?

To be made out to be a fraud?

Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo!

Enough! Enough!

I don't know what is going on

between you two

but I think we've all

made our point for the day.

Connors, get in my car.

My car, Connors!

We've got nothing to hold this guy on, John!

You know that.

Look, Musker's calling the shots now.

Oh I'm gonna take this kid back,

and I'll call you and we'll... we'll go get some coffee.

Listen, Sarah.

This whole thing between you and me...

it's just...

I'm just so sorry.

Amy says hello.

That's inside the house.

...exchange tomorrow night midnight.

- Is it yours?

- Exchange...

...tomorrow night midnight.

Medium range, 2 miles max.

Exchange tomorrow night midnight.

Now listen! Listen!

Exchange tomorrow night midnight.

Aurora!

Is that you?

When I was a little girl,

I was in a play.

I asked my parents

which night they were coming...

...they were so surprised.

"You're in a play?"

I would... walk around the house

for two months...

...singing and sang

my lines night and day until I learned them.

I can't believe that they

have forgotten.

I can't believe that

they didn't know.

And I promised myself that

I would never do that.

But I do.

The masks on these walls

span some 300 years.

There were a dozen

ancient Inuit tribal families.

My great grandfather was

one of these families.

He built this company

into the conglomerate that you see today.

Like him, I believe we must be

there for our own...

...in any bad times.

Ethan, I appreciate but...

...I'm really pass the "we are saikong" speech, you know?

We are in dire times, Jim.

I'm not talking about the business.

Say goodbye to Jim!

- Bye bye.

- Bye, buddy.

- They changed the meeting?

- We are on the way?

- Here they are.

- Hi, honey. Looki here.

- Hello, darling.

- How are you?

Before you respond, hear me out.

We want to help you.

We'll arrange to get you the $2 million forthe ransom...

...to get your little girl back.

We need your [...].

I'll have Gary and legal

work out the particulars, OK?

Yeah, thank you.

We're all here.

You can speak to us.

We're here for Amy.

We are concerned for her.

Do you know where she is?

Please. This isn't a game.

We gotta move fast.

We don't have time.

Sh*t!

Rory's here.

She's just a kid, like Amy.

- My God!

- Look!

- Is this Amy?

- Is that her?

Can you do that again?

OK, great.

Are you with Amy now?

Is Amy safe?

A snake? What does that mean?

What is that? What does that mean?

- OK. A tattoo.

- What?

Is this whose with Amy?

Is this who Amy's with?

- I think it's gone.

- What?

Could we get it back?

- Koski.

- John, it's Sarah.

What can I do for you?

- Hey, she's calling Koski.

- She is?

Yeah, figures. Thank you.

Um...

I want you to just uh... humour me.

Pretend I was someone

calling in with a tip...

...and does a snake tattoo

mean anything to you?

- You're a detective now?

- John, please.

Well, as a matter of fact, it does.

One of the cons we ran down...

had a very distinctive snake tattoo.

Cobra running all the way down his arm.

He killed his wife. Got 20 years

thanks in part to your husband's work.

He also was killed in prison

three years ago.

So we dropped him as a suspect.

What exactly is going on, Sarah?

You're talking to that kid again?

No, I'm sorry that I bothered you John.

Sorry.

- Koski.

- You get anything on that grass?

Yes, Amy's fingerprints were all over it.

There is also another partial match.

Looks like it matches the father's.

That's all we got.

That's quite a lot.

Listen, Gavin. Remember our snake charmer...

...Jackson Lee, the con

who died in prison?

Check him out again.

Girlfriend, boyfriend, any connections.

- Alright, but we already...

- Yeah, just check him out again.

OK. Alright.

But one last thing I just found out.

You'll never guess who Ms Maguire's

new boyfriend is.

Farley Connors.

It turns out that the bartender

had seen them together at the bar that night.

Well, well.

Thank you.

Alright, let's cut to the chase.

You were seen at the bar with

Megan McGuire that night.

But you two didn't go to Merrill Field.

You snatched the girl.

Amy trusted you, so no screams.

Then you call with your insights

making sure the investigations

go the way you want.

So the only question

that remains...

...who are you working with?

Who's your helper?

I'm scared.

Scared?

Scared of me?

There's something in the house.

You know about Amy's imaginary playmate?

- Got that from Sarah.

- It's not imaginary.

- You're seeing things.

- Yeah, yeah, I saw things.

I saw myself dead lying there.

Life's spinning out of me.

I can taste the blood. It was real.

If I stay involved with this,

I will be killed.

- Who shot you?

- I don't know. It wasn't clear.

So, that's your angle? A ghost?

I can't explain things, but the factual

grounding requires a police officer.

So your ghost is feeding you information.

And then tells you, that if you pursue

that information you will be killed.

- Is this it?

- Yeah, I know how it sounds, but yes.

- I know something about you too.

- Really?

Yeah. Your first case,

another girl missing.

But this time you didn't find her.

Is that why you do this?

To make up for it?

She must have meant

a lot to you.

Must be why you [...] some facts.

'Cause you live with regret.

This isn't about me.

It's about you.

You tell me what

I want to know.

My hand in God

I'll beat the living crap out of you until you do.

- Who's your helper?

- Sarah already told you, okay?

Snake tattoo, not chains!

The guy is dead!
