I did not know he was married.

I feel used.

We need a handyman again.

"Jensen. I could not wait Hello

until tomorrow. Sorry again.

Enjoy it. Carter. "

Wait. Wait.

What was that?

Do not worry.

No. Seriously.

I think there's someone out there.

Renee, there's nobody here.

Trust me, right?

Wait.

You can go check?

If I'm wrong, I will compensate.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Wait.

You may need it.

I'll get your

imaginary villain.

I'll be waiting.

- Will soon.

It must be some animal.

- Why is it taking so long?

- I'm going.

Stupid bird.

And not come back.

Who are you?

A friend Abby.

What are you doing here?

I'm passing through.

Okay.

Mad.

Wait.

You're not?

I thought I asked

not to say anything to the press.

I did not tell.

Right. Well,

I just saw on the news.

Not I, sir.

I want to find

crazy bastard.

I'm doing my best.

I hope so.

Because the mayor

will stay in my neck.

And I'll be on your until you find it.

Understood?

Roger that, sir.

Good

This is good.

Lynn!

Lynn, come here!

It's Carter.

- Lynn. Abby.

- Are you okay?

- It's Mrs. Anderson.

- What happened?

She is dead.

- What?

- How?

- We think it was a heart attack.

- A heart attack?

She seemed in good shape

for his age.

Apparently there was an attempt

invasion of the bedroom window.

Maybe it has to fright.

Do you think that was the same guy

What she saw next to our house?

It is a possibility.

Okay, now I'm terrified.

Do not worry, okay?

Let's take care of it.

Do not let anything

happen to both.

Okay.

It's better we go.

Abby, take this.

'-What is this?

- And a weapon of immobilization.

- If something happens.

- Okay, I got it.

I learned to use them in class

self-defense. They work.

Right. I kept them informed

all the news, okay?

Thank you.

Why is it taking so long?

Kyle, what's going on?

Of course.

No signal.

Of course.

No signal.

Kyle?

Kyle, what's going on?

Kyle!

Kyle, stop it.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on, come on,

Come on, come on.

Please.

- Detective Jensen.

- What are you doing here?

- I live here.

I mean, next door.

Mrs. Anderson is my neighbor.

I understand.

I'm sorry.

Also sorry.

It was a wonderful lady.

Just a minute.

It's the boss. Must be met.

Absolutely.

Go ahead.

Right. Wait ...

Thanks for the coffee.

Sure.

- Yes, sir.

- Where are you? In the lady's house?

Yes, Mrs. Anderson.

I just arrived.

- We have a truck on fire.

- What?

A truck on fire in

Wilson Reservoir. Do you know where?

- Yes, I know the place.

- Then come back here.

Okay. I'll be there in a minute.

Thank you.

Detective, find it

outside the window background.

Thank you, officer.

Can you show me

where you found it?

I do not think I lost my book.

But what a head wind.

Use mine.

I disapprove it.

- Hello?

- Lynn, is Carter. Did you see the news?

- About the storm?

- No.

About the patient who fled

Parker Hospital.

- What?

- Listen, do not worry.

Put patrols in the neighborhood

we pick up the guy.

It should already be far away.

Only rather be safe than sorry.

Wait.

This is so bizarre.

Abby was attacked today

by a patient at the Parker.

What?

She told me nothing.

She did not care,

but this will scare her.

Okay, listen.

Do not tell yet, okay?

I will not tell.

Lock everything.

I'll get back to you soon.

Right.

Thank you.

- Who was that?

- Carter.

Really?

He wanted to ensure

we knew about the storm.

How kind.

I'll call Renee.

Great.

I'll make tea.

My God.

Will soon.

What we have here?

The girls found it

burning for an hour.

They were at the party

near here.

- Is there anyone inside?

- No.

- To whom it belonged?

- Mack Santos. A local resident.

- Do you know?

- I know his wife.

Let me guess.

They were college sweethearts.

No, at the gym.

Try to confirm the chassis and find

you can with the girls.

- Take it from here. I'm going back to the police station.

- I will.

Really?

How long you know?

A long time ago.

He never shared

this information with me.

- Yes, 'shared.

- Really?

- It is.

- I do not remember.

The women's selective memory

is taking over.

- Is this it?

- That's it.

Mint tea, my dear.

Thank you.

- Renee replied to my post?

- Not yet.

Forget it. You're probably stuck

with Kyle somewhere.

I received a message from Renee.

She says:
"I'm close."

Next to take another.

I said they do not lose time.

- You're sick.

- No, just bored and tired.

We finish this morning?

I go to sleep.

You're right.

We go to bed.

See you soon

- Damn, fell the breaker.

- Again?

- I'm going out there to call again.

- Shall I go along?

Give me a break. I just need

pressing a button.

- Do not forget the flashlight.

- I will not.

- I am.

- My God, what are you doing?

I came to help her.

Already connected?

- Not yet.

- Let I hold the flashlight.

- Okay, that was scary.

- I know.

We'd better go

before it rains again.

You scared me!

Here is your tea.

- Thank you.

- And your phone.

Renee sent me

one message.

"See you soon."

He left a voice message.

Touch.

She called unwittingly.

- Really?

- Absolutely.

My God, they were

in the act.

- They should be near the climax.

- Your mind is very dirty.

Play it again. Play it again.

Play it again.

Campion Murphy

Campion E. Murphy (born November 12, 1962, Torrance, California) is a writer/director. He began his career in the film and television industry as a Production Assistant with Paramount Studios. He went on to become a Supervising Coordinator in Charge of Video Development at International Video Brokers, and a junior writer/reporter at The Hollywood Reporter. He wrote, directed and produced Escapee (2011) and Citation of Merit (1999), and acted in the movie Blankman (1994). Born and raised in Los Angeles, Campion Murphy worked in the entertainment business for several years. He then segued into indie filmmaking, writing and directing the short film "Citation of Merit". Inspired by his late father's World War II experiences, Citation was accepted into six film festivals. Murphy has since developed other projects including a half-hour pilot for ABC studios titled "Raising Shane". It was based on his life in his early 20s when he became the legal guardian of his then 13-year-old nephew. Soon after, he began compiling a varied body of scripted works including action-thrillers, a dark comedy and an edgy family drama. In 2011, Murphy later directed his indie-thriller "Escapee" starring Dominic Purcell (Prison Break). "Escapee" is the story of a high-risk patient (Purcell) who escapes from a mental hospital and terrorizes a small town. Most recently, Murphy wrote and directed the short film "The Day I Finally Decided to Kill Myself". Initially, the story was written in memory of his brother who committed suicide in the late 1980s. He decided to make the story into a short film later when another brother committed suicide in 2012. Afterwards, Murphy switched gears and took a turn at writing and directing a hybrid comedy, "Barry Avenue", based on his young single years living in a Los Angeles bungalow. Murphy maintains residences in both Los Angeles and Louisiana. He continues to develop projects for both film and television. more…
