Never Here Page #4

and the big Chaise lounge

was in a different place.

Well, you had painters in there

all week.

Well, they finished last week.

And Karin left for Paris

on Thursday.

Okay.

Did one of them have a key?

No.

But the lock on my building door

is broken.

Was your sibling in the

building?

I have to ask him.

I don't think so.

Although I wonder.

Is it fair of me to deny Arthur

access to my apartment?

What?

Well, there can't be one set

of rules for me...

and another for everyone else.

Audrey, give me Stearns on the

phone, okay?

Arthur? Arthur?

How would he have gotten in?

I keep a key under my doormat.

And you-- you think Arthur came

into your apartment...

and moved your Chaise lounge

around?

Oh, Jesus.

Are those real?

MIRANDA (V.O.)

November 12th. 9:00 PM.

I am absolutely freezing.

Watch here as I try to warm

my frozen feet.

I follow S down a street not

far from where I live myself.

I'm just a few paces behind...

though he does not acknowledge

me.

He must know I am here, by now.

Earlier today, S took me to the

west side of the city.

Where he allowed me to get

very close.

Before disappearing from my

sights all together.

And then--

[MIRANDA]

Oh, my God.

MIRANDA (V.O.) Like he walked

right into me again.

Right into... this very room.

Hello.

Hello.

Uh... Mr. Martinelli?

Did you move a chair

in my apartment?

Move your chair?

Yes, the Chaise lounge in my

apartment.

Would you like some help

with something, Ms. Fall?

No, don't worry about it.

Thank you.

PAUL (OVER SPEAKER)

Square cut jaw.

Dark hair. Widow's peak.

Maybe not. Maybe not.

Square cut jaw.

Dark hair. Widow's peak.

Maybe not. Maybe not.

PAUL (OVER SPEAKER)

Square cut jaw.

Dark hair. Widow's Peak.

Maybe not. Maybe not.

Square cut jaw.

Dark hair. Widow's Peak.

Maybe not. Maybe not.

( KNOCKING ON DOOR )

Hello. I'm sorry to disturb

you so late.

Hi!

Uh... the door down stairs

was open.

Oh, yes, I know.

I've just made some tea.

Would you like some.

Scene of the crime.

How are you feeling?

I've been such a fan of yours

all these years.

I don't know.

I'm not the same as I was

the last time I was here.

My DNA is different.

Thank you.

Why is it that when you got to

the police station...

you couldn't identify anyone?

I'm sorry, it's so crazy.

Because I was here, and then it

was you who witnessed it.

What's your new project about?

They did find him.

I know. I know. I just--

I just-- I need to know

what happened?

I heard a man's voice at the

window.

And I know I did.

I need to know what your new

project is about.

Paul Stark saw you get attacked,

not me.

Oh my God.

What if they hadn't caught him?

What if they hadn't caught him.

Did you know that Arthur

Anderton was in the hospital?

Tried to kill himself.

Is he going to be okay?

They don't know. He shot

himself.

What's going on, Miranda?

ARTHUR (V.O.)

You've done a bad thing.

( SHOWER RUNNING )

MIRANDA (V.O.)

November 16th. 10:00PM.

S.

S... all along.

November 17th. 5:00PM.

Grey skies.

I wait outside of S' apartment.

I know what I must do.

I must rise and meet the

circumstance.

I must follow the stream.

[MIRANDA]

Sh*t. F***.

( FAUCET RUNNING )

( CLINKING )

( EERIE MUSIC PLAYING )

Love this photo.

[MIRANDA]

Which one?

The one of little you, and your

mom and your dad.

Oh yeah... that's a nice one.

I've been looking and looking

at it a lot recently.

Hey.

Hey.

The morning my parents died,

my mom called...

to see if there was anything

that I wanted from home?

And I said, my white shirt.

I don't know how long she spent

looking for the white shirt...

but I know she spent sometime

looking for the white shirt.

And I know that in a car crash

where a matter of moments...

or a moment is the difference

between life and death.

That if I hadn't of asked

for the white shirt...

they would still be alive.

I am disappearing, Andy.

You are right here.

Hi.

Hi.

Is that really what I look like?

It was so real for me

when we were at school.

Did you feel it, too?

I always wanted to ask you.

I was just a boy.

By the way, you should be glad

you weren't able to ID anyone.

Because they put me back

on the case.

Apparently someone went missing

from your spot.

The Nightingale.

What?

A young woman went missing

the other night.

But they found the guy?

Cops can be a**holes.

But he confessed?

A coerced confession.

How?

What?

How could you not have

told me this?

I just did.

Don't worry. You're not involved

any more.

But I am involved, though.

I am involved.

Do you have any idea who it is?

No.

And what about this woman

at The Nightingale.

We think that your case might

be connected...

to this girl who's gone missing.

She's gone missing?

Yes, Friday.

[MIRANDA]

Friday? This last Friday?

What the hell?

This last Friday?

Yes.

( KNOCKING )

Ssh, she's asleep.

She hasn't been able to get

to sleep.

Mr. Stark, I'm going to head

home.

I will see you first thing

in the morning.

Thank you, Imelda, thank you

very much.

I don't know how

to thank you enough.

Okay, yeah.

1:
00 AM is early to start

drinking.

You look awful.

Uh-huh.

Paul?

Hm?

Oh, God, let me guess

where this is going.

I need to know if this

is the same man...

you saw attack Margeret?

I thought they nailed this guy?

No.

I don't know... it's hard

to say.

I can't see him properly.

Can you please try to guess?

I don't know what to tell you.

Tomorrow morning, I want you

to come with me...

and I'll take you to him.

And you'll tell me if it's

the same man...

you saw outside of my

apartment, okay?

Tomorrow morning I have an

appointment at the hospital.

Do you have eyes?

A woman disappeared from

The Nightingale...

the night I followed this man

there.

People might get hurt, Paul.

( DEVICE BEEPING )

She's awake.

He put something in my closet.

He put a scarf in my closet.

All right, look.

I'll meet you tomorrow morning

at 10:
30 at the gallery.

After I drop her off.

Are you okay?

Do you wanna sleep here

over night?

You know when you said, "He

looked right up at me,"?

Does that mean that he saw you?

I'm scared for you, Paul.

What if he's dangerous and you

can ID him?

You know this thing with Arthur?

I mean... he was unstable

from the very beginning...

there is no way you could have

known that, cookie.

I think it's time to go

to the police.

You know what this is for me?

( WEEPING )

I love her.

I know.

I really...

I know, Paul.

[PAUL] I can't handle it.

It's too much.

[PAUL]

It's too much.

Hey, Paul, it's me,

it's ten to 11:
00.

I hope everything went well

at the hospital.

I'm at the gallery, give me

a call. Bye.

What time did he bring her

to the hospital?

And when did Mr. Stark leave?

Can I talk to the caregiver,

Imelda, is she there?

MIRANDA (V.O.)

November 18th, 3:00PM.

Because I do not know
