I've basically been pacing
around that empty house,
making myself sick.
When my fiance and I broke up,
we dragged it out.
It was so long, so painful.
There's no use. He won't
be able to hear you.
I have to at
least try something.
Don't you get it?
This is just another test!
All it's going to do is make
Simon have to hurt you again!
would've been more humane
if she just left like that.
Hmm!
Nothing about this feels humane.
I don't know whether
or not to feel angry at her
for running away
or like a fool for
not seeing it coming.
Hey, you got that right!
Mind if I get another?
Please help yourself.
No, no, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no!
No, no!
The best thing you
can do for both of you
is to just forget him.
No!
So, here's the deal.
If you try to escape again,
I'm not gonna kill you.
I'm gonna kill Evan.
Maybe you don't value
your own life anymore,
but I trust that
So, are you gonna be
a good girl from now on?
Mm-hmm.
Let me hear you say it.
I'll be good.
That's what I like to hear.
Now come show me.
? I remember the day?
? That I met you?
? Hand in hand?
? We strolled through the park?
? Then all of a sudden?
? You kissed me?
? And you started
a flame in my heart?
Ow!
? There were tears
in your eyes?
? When you whispered?
? Cause us to part?
? But no matter, darling?
? What might happen?
? I shall always?
? Have that flame?
? In my heart?
Hey, Evan!
Hey!
Wow!
Heading back to the city, huh?
Yeah, it's been a couple
months since Jess took off.
Figure it's time to
get on with my life.
Can't say I blame ya!
Besides, I can't afford
this place on my own.
When do you leave?
As soon as this place sells.
Can I have a wooden spoon?
Is something wrong?
Do you really care?
Of course.
That's why I asked.
Last night was
supposed to be my night.
What?
With Simon.
You've been with him
3 nights in a row.
You act all innocent,
but I see how
you flirt with him,
playing hard to get.
You don't know what
you're talking about.
- Really?
- Yeah.
What I do know
is things were a lot better
before you showed up.
I didn't have a say in that
then, and I still don't now.
Hello, Simon!
Hello! Ah!
Jessica?
Hmm!
How was your day?
Did you get all
your papers graded?
Almost. A poorly written essay
can be a real slog.
I can help you with that
sometime, if you'd like.
I do have my English degree.
Hmm! I'd appreciate that.
Here's a drink for you, darling!
Go ahead.
You sure?
Please!
Excellent, Jessica.
Don't you wanna read something?
I think I'll just go to sleep.
Hmm!
Is something wrong?
It's Jessica.
Go on.
She told me today that
some people to move on.
Not only that.
She told me that
she's just pretending
that she wants to be here
and she plans on trying
to escape again.
How do you know this?
She asked me to help her.
I see.
I know this hurts you to hear...
but she just doesn't
love you like I do.
Thank you for telling me.
What are you gonna do about it?
Jessica, wake up!
Jessica, wake up!
Get out here now!
Is everything OK?
No, no.
Everything
is not OK. Go!
Robin told me that you confessed
that you were still
in love with your ex.
- What?
- And she said you were gonna plan another escape.
No, but why would you say that?
- Because it's the truth!
- Simon...
She's lying!
I'm disappointed.
And frankly, I'm a
little bit surprised,
because lying is the one
thing that I cannot abide!
Lying is a cancer for families,
and cancers need to be cut out.
Oh!
Why?
She had lies in her heart.
How did you know?
I'm the head of the household.
It's my job to know everything.
I feel like something's
changed with us,
like you're starting to see
things the way I see them,
and I couldn't take the chance
that she was gonna hurt you!
You understand, of course,
that I did this for you?
I do.
So, could you put on some music?
And then go in your bedroom,
and make sure the
music's very loud.
Haynes.
Hi! I don't know
if you remember me.
My name is Oscar Garrett.
about Jessica Crowder.
Right. What can
I do for ya?
been any contact with her.
No, nothing.
Well, I might have
found something.
Sure!
You remember I told you
Jessica was suspicious
of her neighbour, Simon?
I reached out to my network
to do some digging.
We started off crosschecking
lists of missing women
against students at schools
where he taught.
There's been at least one
at every school.
I'm, uh, I'm sure
you could say that
about a lot of teachers.
Uh-huh. But how many of those
teachers lost their last job
for having inappropriate contact
with one of those
same missing students?
Do you have proof?
HR records at a college
he taught at in Connecticut
show that he was disciplined
but allowed to resign.
Was he a suspect
in her disappearance?
The Hartford police
questioned him,
but they had nothing concrete,
so they had to let him go.
How did you get access to this?
I don't know if
this is admissible
or enough to get a warrant,
but at least--
All right, I'll send you
everything I got.
You should get it now.
Thank you.
Good luck.
? I can't stand the pain?
? That feeling of losing again?
? Am I starting to see?
? All of my destiny??
? 'Cause no mater
what I try...?
Isn't it a little
late for a visitor?
I'll be right back.
Would you leave it on?
I'd like to watch you.
Oh! Hello!
Hi, sorry to bother you so late,
but I have a few more
questions about Jessica.
I don't know what I can
tell you that I haven't already.
Do you mind if we talk inside?
Please!
You've got a lot of space for
somebody who lives on their own.
Well, I appreciate the room
after so many years of living
in cramped apartments.
Do you mind if I look around?
Be my guest.
Evan's lucky to have a friend
like you on the police force
who's willing to go above
and beyond to help him out.
I just wanna find out exactly
what happened to Jessica.
It was my understanding
that she chased off
with some other fellow.
That's a theory.
Well, then I'm not exactly sure
what that has to do with me.
Well, like you said,
Are you still seeing
the same girl?
Your student?
No, no, no.
We broke that off.
I thought it would
be smart to end it
Unlike, say, what
happened at Hartford.
I assume that you're
referring to Robin Simmons.
You didn't think
it was worth mentioning
that you'd been questioned in
a woman's disappearance before?
When you stopped by,
Jessica had been missing
for less than a day.
I didn't see the point
in dredging up an embarrassing
chapter of my own history
over what I assumed was nothing.
