Kill for Me

Hey, it's Amanda. Leave a message.

It's Natalie.

Cameron came by the bar tonight.

I thought he was gonna hurt me,

he was in my face.

He was totally out of control,

they had to kick him out.

You better deal with this.

Good morning.

Detective Ferris, Detective Howe.

Listen, maybe we could just

start with the last time

that you saw Natalie, and we'll go

through events one thing at a time.

It's me again. This can't be happening.

My car's dead. It's not starting.

I'm stuck on the side of the road, like,

I don't know, five miles from the bar.

I need you to come get me.

Why aren't you answering your phone?

Where are you?

The third factor is outcomes:

The results of these

strategies in action.

We're not just making

predictions here,

not just what we think is

going to happen,

but what are all the other

possible things that don't happen?

If we want to understand, say...

Amanda. Hold on.

Wait. Wait a minute.

If you need someone

to talk to...

I mean,

I could be that person.

You're a really

good friend, Mark.

I'll be okay.

It's just a room.

It has nothing to do

with Natalie.

I can't afford to pay

for an empty room anymore.

Can you?

Hey, I'm Zoe.

Hey. Hailey.

Nice to meet you.

Yeah, you too.

Hailey.

Amanda.

Nice to meet you.

- So this is your first year?

- Yeah.

What do you

want to study?

Well, I grew up on a farm,

and I work in an animal hospital,

so I've been thinking

about vet sciences.

So this is it.

Wow.

TV room, cable, DVD player.

The fireplace works, but we

have to go easy on the wood

because the ashes can get messy.

My room.

Amanda's.

And...

This would be your room.

It's great.

# Let's not be so nice ##

Hey.

Hi.

I made you some tea.

Thanks.

It looks nice.

Yeah.

So have you had a chance

to check out campus?

Little bit. I got the basic tour

back in spring.

Well, if you want,

I can show you around.

I appreciate the offer,

but it's okay.

Look, there are

some really cool places

I'm sure that they

didn't show you.

Sure.

Great.

I heard about Klein.

That's amazing.

Who's Klein?

Maria Klein.

Uh, she's like all over the news

about that DNA databank thing.

Yeah, Amanda interned

at her office all summer,

and now she's got a big job

lined up after she graduates.

Where'd you hear

about that?

Everyone's heard about that.

Klein's a big deal.

What?

Does she know?

Know what?

Natalie was my friend.

She lived in your room.

I'm living in a dead girl's room?

She's missing.

Nobody said she was dead.

Look, I'm sorry.

Maybe we should've said something.

Forget it.

It's just a room, right?

I'm gonna go.

Yeah, um, it was nice to meet you,

and I'll see you later.

She used to make us do

the craziest things.

This one time my freshman year,

I was having a hard time.

You know, school, boys...

My parents were always away.

Natalie knew this. Anyway, so she

woke us up at the crack of dawn,

and she shoves us in the car.

She drives us to the country

and doesn't tell us

where we're going.

She booked

a whitewater rafting trip.

I was terrified.

I mean, I was afraid...

I was scared of the water,

the raft, drowning...

F***ing b*tch knew it too.

But she had a way about her.

You know, it's like...

It's like that she knew

what was good for you.

So did you do it?

It was the best trip of my life.

She was one of those girls,

you know?

No matter what you

were going through,

or how shitty life was,

when she was around,

everything was okay.

I remember seeing her

in the papers and everything.

I never really paid

much attention though.

What happened?

Natalie was a waitress

at The Black Swan.

She worked one morning till 2 a.m., and

that was the last time anybody saw her.

We put up posters, talked to

people in the bar that night,

read the papers,

followed the news.

Just trying to fit

the pieces together, you know?

Sometimes I even go to that spot

where her car was found

and try to imagine

what happened.

Every scenario in my head is bad.

Hey.

Like you said, she's missing.

She could still be alive.

How've you been?

Haven't seen you in a while.

How's your new place?

Fine.

You gonna stay for dinner?

I went shopping.

I have to go.

Mom said I could have it.

If you need money, just ask.

Wait.

Take it.

Look, I just want to talk, okay?

Figure this out.

There's nothing

to talk about.

Look, I f***ed up, okay?

I know that,

but we're supposed

to be together.

You said that, you remember?

I was wrong.

Now move.

Move!

Amanda, please believe me.

I had nothing to do with Natalie!

Don't make me say it again.

Hey!

Hey, you guys are leaving already?

Yeah, so excited.

Have a good weekend.

Thanks. See you later.

Pacify certain interests in the country,

Maria Klein's announcement

last week effectively killed

legislation that would have

seen the creation

of a nationwide DNA databank

for missing persons.

By allowing jurisdictions to opt out,

well, this makes the databank

next to useless before it's even started.

Meanwhile, the families

of missing persons

continue to suffer,

and they continue to wonder

whether their loved ones

have been found and not identified.

For this reason,

Klein?

I am not supporting

this legislation.

Yeah.

Are you worried people are going

to blame you for this not going through?

My message to them,

and Mr. Shaughnessy, is this:

Do it right, or don't do it at all.

The families of missing people,

they deserve better.

Hey, that's you.

Yeah, that was like a week ago.

What did you do for her?

A lot of things.

Primarily, I watched her back,

till this happened.

One of her rivals backpedaled

on some legislation,

and I was the one

who caught it.

Next thing I knew we were

in front of the cameras.

You look good.

- legislation that was ill-conceived

and full of loopholes from the get-go.

It was never going to see

the light of day.

If I hadn't revealed it when I did,

someone else would have.

If people want to blame me

for its failure, they can go ahead.

What?

Nothing.

The questions people

should be asking are,

why were jurisdictions given

the option to opt out?

And why wasn't it mandatory for all

law-enforcement agencies to participate?

It's a major setback, but I don't intend

to let this die a quiet death.

# Tell me is this true? #

# Tell me is this true? #

# One day we'll disappear ##

Hey.

Hey.

Sorry, I thought I heard someone.

I don't hear anything.

Oh, for chrissake.

When are you gonna get it

through your thick skull?

We're done. Now get the f*** away

from me, or I'm calling the police.

I love you.

I always will. Don't you see?

Hey, get your f***ing

hands off her! Get off her!

Who the f*** are you?

Come here, jerk-off. You'll find out.

Listen, b*tch, this doesn't

f***ing concern you...

F***!

F*** you!

I can't believe I ever got

mixed up with that guy.

He was one of the last people

to ever see Natalie alive.

He was there

that night at the bar.

I know he had something
