Isn't what you're doing

illegal?

[Chuckling]

You're the lawyer.

You tell me.

Now listen, we can

continue this conversation

at a later date

if you'd like,

but right now, I've got a

meeting with some grown-ups.

Bye-bye.

[Junior]

You should frame these.

Ooh.

- Cute kids.

- Yeah, they are.

A little pain in the ass,

but they're good.

I like them.

Hey, before we go in, I haven't

had a chance to pick up.

So it's gonna be

a little messy.

Don't worry about it, okay?

I warned you.

Come on in.

Okay, so, uh, I'm gonna

go get my laptop

from the other room.

- Make yourself at home here.

- Cool.

Mi casa, su casa.

You want anything to drink?

Some water, some wine?

- No, I'm good.

- You sure?

Mm-hmm.

Nice place.

Okay, thanks, yeah.

I'll be right back.

[Patrick] Hey! You hear

from the Fergusons?

Yeah, yeah, I just...

I was just over there.

Couldn't get anything

out of them though.

- You all right?

- Yeah. No, I'm fine.

I'm just thinking I've been

feeling kinda sick lately.

- Oh.

- Like everything I'm going through.

I'm not feeling well.

I can get you some

medication and stuff.

An aspirin?

No, you know what,

don't even worry

about it, I'm fine.

I'm just gonna go,

but... Oh!

Rachel.

It's all right, Rachel.

It's okay, I got it.

Probably excited.

You don't look

so good.

Oh, I'll be fine.

I'm fine, thank you.

Sorry. I just...

I think I'm still shaken,

that's all.

I thought I was over it.

Shaken up.

What about the assignment

and stuff?

You know what? I'll call you.

I'll call you tomorrow.

I'm just...

I just thought

I was over it.

Sorry, Rach... I... Sorry,

I... I have the keys.

The keys...

It's a habit.

I just... Sorry.

It's a habit of locking

the door behind me.

So, um, tomorrow. I'll just keep working.

Is that cool?

And then tomorrow,

we'll just meet up in class

and then, I don't know,

compare notes or something.

- Cool.

- Yeah?

Bye.

[Rachel]

I just need to know.

Was Patrick ever a suspect

in the Melissa Ward case?

Nope.

He's still a suspect

for your disappearance though.

Just trying to pin a reason

to bring him in again.

He knew

Clayton and Melissa.

Look, I know this probably doesn't

make any sense to you right now,

but I'm telling you, it's like she was

trying to lead me to her and Clayton.

Yeah, the case we were working

on just so happened to be

the exact same case that they were

working on before they disappeared.

The fact that he knows them

is clearly circumstance.

It doesn't automatically

make him a suspect.

They lead me to that factory,

and there was a reason for it.

Patty, boy!

Are you in there?

Hello?

Come to see if that

plumbing issue got resolved.

Hang back.

Don't get in the way.

Ah, man.

I'll get on the radio

and start a search for him.

Lubbock.

What the hell is this?

You're f***ed, Patty boy.

Go home, Junior.

You guys can't be in here

without a warrant.

We have probable cause.

Oh, you do?

- Have a seat.

- I don't wanna sit.

Make it easy

on yourself, pal.

Right here would be good.

[Sighs]

So you two still think

I'm wanna hurt Rachel?

We're not here

about Rachel.

Clayton and Melissa Ward.

When's the last time

you saw them?

I don't know.

What, maybe,

three years ago.

Why?

You guys were close, right?

Friends, classmates.

You don't seem too worked up

over their disappearance.

It was a long time ago.

You know, Clayton is still

the final suspect.

I think you know

where he is.

No.

You're lying.

Why would I lie

about something like that?

I don't know, buddy,

you tell me.

I told you

when we first met

I'd find out the truth.

- Didn't I?

- Yeah.

I'm gonna go get

a burger.

You guys want anything?

I'm a vegetarian.

Healthy man,

good for you.

[Whispers]

Your loss.

[Lubbock]

Be smart.

So, you know the old

sugar factory on Six?

Yeah, it's where

Rachel was found.

Okay, so, do you

wanna tell me

what you were doing there

the other day?

What are you

talking about?

You were there

the other day.

Come on.

Yeah, well, I wasn't there,

I was like...

I go for walks behind the

building to clear my head.

You clear your head?

At an abandoned

sugar factory?

No, I go for walks behind the

building there. So what?

- You walk behind the building?

- Yeah, to clear my head.

- Then, to clear your head.

- That's what I said.

Is that where you

buried the body?

- What?

- Yeah, is that how... is what it is?

What about Clayton's wife? And you

buried her at the sugar factory.

That's what happened.

Listen, if you're gonna

accuse me of something,

then bring me in.

If not, this conversation,

it's over.

Hi.

Howdy.

Hi, I'm Rachel. I don't think

we've officially met.

Yeah, oh, pardon

my poor manners.

My hands are dirty.

That's okay.

That's a nice watch.

Oh, that's kind

of you to say.

It's been in the family

for generations.

You're showing a lot

of interest around here.

What exactly are you

doing out here anyhow?

Oh, an old murder case

about a slave from the 1800s.

Well, partly, anyway.

It's why I went

to visit your dad.

What do you care

about some slave been dead

for over a century

and a half for?

Because nobody

even knows about it,

and they don't even

know about the slave labor

that's used

in the factories.

I still can't quite get

what you're aiming at.

It's just for school.

Hey, you stay in that

Turner house, don't you?

How do you know that?

It's my first deal,

actually.

Daddy let me do

the entire deal by myself.

Mm-hmm. It's a nice

place, isn't it?

Yep.

You're the one that found

there were remains, right?

Yeah, you missed something

when you built the house.

Well, it happens.

It's old.

What do you expect?

I, actually, would like

to schedule another interview

with you and your dad,

if that's all right?

I'll set something up.

You should come in sometimes.

Maybe next time.

I'll save a seat for you.

You'll find the answers

you're looking for.

And what might those be?

Look, son, the entire town

loves your Abby.

We all still miss her.

We're not asking you

to forget about her.

That's impossible,

but just come in,

it will help.

I don't know.

The place never

helped me before.

It takes time.

I know you didn't come all

this way to talk about church.

Yeah.

I got a warrant to search

the sugar factory.

Can you help me get in?

Sure thing.

I got spare keys

you can use.

- [Rachel] Hi.

- [Junior] Hi.

Come on in and make

yourself at home.

I just have

to turn off the oven.

Wow. The place looks

just like I remembered it.

Say, Bill and Molly around?

No, they're still

out of town,

they'll be back

tomorrow afternoon.

I'll have to catch up

with old bill.

You know, Daddy's

a little worried

about all this talk.

I thought we buried

all that.

Why do you think he wanted us

to meet him here, anyways?

I don't know.

It's pretty run down.

Yeah, it looks deserted.

Yeah, maybe he wants

to offer us a bribe.

- I'm not gonna take it.
