Original subtitles

- Sun is coming up.

What?

Nothing.

You've been holding back all night.

It's OK to say you're mad at me.

- I'm not.

I'm mad at myself.

You've always been clear about who you are

and the lines you're willing to cross

to save a life.

I used to be.

But lately, I've been

blurring my own lines.

- You saying I'm a bad influence?

- You know I can't remember a morning

that didn't start at the precinct?

Even as a kid, my dad brought me in,

just like his dad did with him.

Being a cop is...

is who I am.

But fighting on the right side,

that's just... that's in my blood.

I don't know who I am without the badge, and it...

it scares me.

Well,

if you had to choose a new line of work,

what would you do?

Would you be an exotic dancer?

Instagram chef?

- I play a mean French horn.

I was first chair

in my middle school band.

I defended it every week and won.

What about you, Gabi?

Anything you loved growing up?

- I love them.

- They're starlings.

- Why are they dancing like that?

- It's called a murmuration.

There are theories, but the actual reasoning

behind their synchronized flight remains a mystery.

- ♪ I've been wandering around all day ♪

- "At the same time that we are earnest to explore all things,

we require that all things be mysterious."

- Walden. Very good.

As you know, Thoreau spent two years living in that cabin

by himself, and he believed

that solitude was an incredible gift.

Gave him a new perspective on life.

- I think I understand what he meant.

- ♪ This made-up falsifier ♪

- I've come to love it here too.

I'm glad you brought me.

- I'm so happy you've come to accept our life together.

- Do you think we could go outside and see them?

- ♪ Keep me there, keep me through my nightmare ♪

♪ I'm alone, waiting on the antidote ♪

♪ Be a lamb, keep me by my right hand ♪

♪ I'm alone, give me all the love you got ♪

Gabrielle!

- Gabi.

- This is a surprise.

I'm usually the one going to the press,

not the other way around.

- Is this her, the one that finds people?

- That's me. Gabi Mosely, Ms...

- My granddaughter, Denae Wagon, is missing,

and... and the press refuse to report on it.

- My boss doesn't think that Denae's story is big enough

to be considered news yet.

- She's pregnant and due any day.

Please, help me.

- Of course I will.

- That's Denae a couple of months ago

with her kindergarten class.

She was six months pregnant then.

I'm not resting until my granddaughter's found.

- And neither are we, but in order to find Denae,

we need information.

So Denae lives here in D.C.?

- Yeah, she moved off of our tribe's reservation

in Virginia about a year ago.

- You still live on the reservation?

- Of course. It's my home.

And Denae was coming home to have the baby,

and I've just been getting everything ready

for her and the little one.

- When was the last time you spoke to Denae?

- Yesterday morning.

It's about a three-hour drive to the reservation,

and... and she was supposed to be there by midnight,

but she never arrived.

- Maybe she stopped at a hotel for the night.

- She would have called.

Or... or at least she would have answered when I called.

And she's not answering.

- Did you ask D.C. police to do a welfare check?

Police don't get involved with us.

- I am going to need the name of every person

Denae spent time with in D.C.

- There's no list.

Just one guy, Charlie Rutledge.

He's the baby's father, and he lives with her.

- You don't like him? - That boy is a white devil.

And he is repeatedly asking her how much

her per capita payment is.

- What is that?

- It's money that's distributed

to tribal members from tribally owned businesses.

And Denae and... and Charlie have been fighting a lot

about money lately, and I think he's after that per cap.

- We are going to do everything we can

to bring her and your grandbaby home.

- Thank you.

You know, I wouldn't turn down a ride to the bus station.

- Yes, ma'am.

- What you got? - Charlie was in a car accident

a couple hours ago, just arrived

at Washington, D.C., Memorial Hospital.

- Lucky us.

- I still can't understand why the police won't get involved.

- Because Denae is Indigenous

and we don't know exactly where she went missing,

it leaves room for jurisdictional debate

with her tribe's law enforcement.

And debate means...

- The victim inevitably falls between the cracks.

- I'll give you three guesses what caused the accident.

- Tequila, tequila, tequila.

Cops or lawyers?

- When is the last time you saw your girlfriend, Denae Wagon?

- You found her?

- You saying she's missing?

- No!

No, I...

just haven't talked to her since yesterday,

before my shift.

- What do you do? - I'm a mixologist.

- So bartender?

- Walk me through your day today.

- I came home early this morning from work.

Denae wasn't there.

When she didn't answer her phone, I got worried.

I was afraid her car broke down or something.

Thing's a piece of crap.

I drove around looking for her,

and that damn sedan...

Oh... braked too fast...

Charlie?

- Oh, incoming. - Oh!

- Ew. - So Charlie really went

full-on "Exorcist"?

- Missed Gabi's designer shoes by an inch.

- He was in no condition to talk.

Thankfully, he didn't need to.

- So he had scratches on his dominant hand,

as if he's punched something multiple times.

They're all scabbed over, so it was an old injury,

not from the accident.

- Punched something like a person?

- Possibly, or a wall.

I mean, he definitely talks with his fists.

- Dhan, vet his work alibi.

And in the meantime, don't let Charlie out of your sight.

If he's done something to Denae, we'll know.

I am asking Trent to run a check on him,

see if he's ever been arrested for domestic abuse or... ah.

- What is it?

- Trent won't have access to the DCPD system.

He's been suspended.

- Let me guess...

the zip drive.

- How's he doing?

He's going stir-crazy.

But we can still use him to consult on this job.

We need the manpower, and he needs

something important to focus on.

- I'll see if I can find a criminal record.

- No, focus on the phone that I swiped.

Lacey, see if Shaker can help us with the criminal record.

- Already got into the phone.

Looks like Denae and Charlie's

last text exchange got a little heated.

- "You're a screwup and an ass, Charlie.

I needed you there for support, but of course you're MIA."

"It was one doc appointment.

"You are not the first woman to have a damn baby.

Get over yourself."

Wow.

- I need that doc's information.

- Texting it to you as we speak.

- Sorry for intruding on your home, Dr. Potter,

but this couldn't wait.

- I'm used to having patients drop by at all times,

so I'm happy to help.

- I can tell you're someone who cares about

your patients' well-being.

- Oh, my work is my life.

And my patients are like family,

which is why I'm concerned to hear

that Denae may be missing.

I only just saw her yesterday.

- And how was she?

Did anything happen during that visit

that seemed to upset her?

- Well, Denae asked me what I thought

about her having the baby on the tribe's reservation.

I said it wasn't a good idea, which initially upset her.

But she understood what was at stake,

and, well, eventually she promised me

that she'd have the baby in a hospital.

So we have a plan in place.

- Why were you against Denae having

the baby on her reservation?

- Well, I wish I could say, but it's

doctor-patient confidentiality.

- Of course.

Discretion is important in what we do too.

But we both want the same things here,

and that's to help find Denae.

This is how you help her.

- All right.

But only because of Denae's condition.

Time is working against her.

- What's her condition?

- Denae's baby is breeched.

Denae is due soon, and if she tries to have this baby

without proper medical care...

- It's likely she and the baby won't make it.

- Did you hear me?

A baby's life is in jeopardy.

- Who's Heavy Boots,

the man you let into the house?

That was quite the risk, which means he's important.

Who is he?

- Denae was on her way to the reservation

but appears to have... - He made you laugh.

- Yes, he did.

- Did you...

sleep with him?

- I have a woman and baby to save.

Get yourself up to speed, and give me something I can use.

- Pulled these from her social.

Denae didn't really have much of a life

outside of work and Charlie.

- We're still trying to track down her principal,

but by all accounts, she loves her job.

- All right, Charlie's never been arrested

for domestic violence, just bar fights.

Sorry for the delay in getting these records.

Shaker's been buried under cases.

- And you feel guilty about that.

- Please don't. Don't feel sorry for me.

Don't read me. Don't any of it.

I made my bed, and I just...

I just want to focus on Denae.

- OK.

Bar fights still speak to violent tendencies,

so Charlie stays on the list.

Zeke, what's the video?

- Hey, baby.

Mommy can't wait to meet you.

- Pregnancy's such an exciting time.

Denae should be nesting and planning.

Instead she's God knows where.

- Do we have any pictures of her

actually on the reservation? - Not that I could find.

- If she loved her time there so much,

why is there no evidence of her life there anywhere online?

- Unless she wasn't happy there.

I mean, she did leave and build a life here in D.C.

- This is the only reference I could find

in any of her postings.

- "I know who I am.

"You can't take that from me.

- She seems to be straddling the line

between two worlds, D.C. and the reservation.

- The question is, which side of the line

did she disappear on?

- Mm. Anything on her phone records?

- Looks like she called three people last night.

Two were unknown.

The other's to a coworker named Hannah Cress.

- Thank you for agreeing to meet with us, Hannah.

- Did Charlie hire you to find Denae?

No, her grandmother Rose did.

You don't like Charlie, do you?

- Couple weeks ago, I found Denae crying in her car

outside the school.

It wasn't the first time.

She told me that she and Charlie had been

fighting over his drinking.

It wasn't the first time she told me that either.

This time, though, he punched a wall, almost hitting her.

It really shook her up.

- Yet she stayed with him. Was she scared to leave?

- Not once she had a baby to protect.

That's why even though she loved her job, she quit.

- She quit? Rose didn't mention that.

- Well, nobody knew except me and the principal.

Denae did not want it getting back to Charlie.

- So Denae wasn't just going back home to have her baby.

She was moving back to the reservation permanently.

Is that right? - Yes.

Denae genuinely missed her community.

- So we know that Denae called you last night.

Do you remember anything that she said

that could be helpful?

- I don't have to remember it.

I have a voice mail.

I missed her call.

Hey.

Just letting you know I'm almost home.

Wait, hold on.

I'll text you when I arrive. Love you.

- I tried calling her back, but she wouldn't pick up.

- So Denae was almost back home at the reservation.

The question is, what or who stopped her

from getting there?

- You lied about your alibi.

- If that Indian PI dude left a bruise, I'm pressing charges.

- What Indian dude?

I don't see anybody, Charlie.

But you know what I do see

is a hungover, sorry excuse of a boyfriend

and father-to-be.

So why don't we just focus on him?

- I like her style. - Oh, best partner I ever had.

- You know Mallory will have your ass

if he knows you're here.

- I can't just sit on my hands.

- Now, you know, lying about your work alibi,

that's the fastest way to get on my nerves.

And, Charles, that is not a place you want to be.

- I was with a girl I met during my shift, OK?

I was dreading going home since Denae I were fighting,

so I clocked off early

and spent the whole night with her.

We went to another bar after my shift.

Here's the receipt.

- Cheating on your pregnant girlfriend.

Really? - It's not a crime.

Can I go now?

- Receipt or not, you got at least

five seconds to tell me if you had anything to do

with Denae, or else. - Or what?

- Or us.

- You better start talking, Charlie.

- Go ahead. I'll still say the same thing.

I didn't lay a finger on Denae, and I don't know where she is.

Look, we may fight a lot,

and yeah, I got a temper, OK?

But I love Denae and that kid.

I need them to be OK.

- Then help us, Charlie.

Who would try to stop Denae from going to the reservation?

- Wait, what?

Denae wouldn't go back there. She hated the reservation.

- She was headed back. We know for a fact she was.

- I seriously doubt that.

She never said why, but I always got the feeling

she had problems with somebody there.

Always said it was the last place she'd ever go back to.

- I guess your instincts about Denae's complicated feelings

for her reservation were correct.

- If Denae was having issues with someone

at the reservation, wouldn't that be something

her grandmother would know and should have volunteered?

- You're not gonna even check who that is?

- I know who it is. It's my union rep.

He's been trying to reach me all day.

- Trent, you can't avoid talking...

- All he is going to tell me is to give you up

as the person who stole the thumb drive

so my job can be reinstated.

And that's not an option, so please let it go.

- No hits on Denae's car here in D.C.

or any sight of it on the highway to the reservation.

It's like it just disappeared.

- We need boots on the ground there.

- Gabi.

- Dhan is setting up surveillance at Charlie's

in case Denae comes back.

Margaret is headed over to Zeke's

with Denae's voice mail to Hannah

to see if we can clean it up.

Outside of that, we've exhausted

all paths here in D.C., Lace.

It's time to go to the reservation.

- In Virginia?

Past...

past our farmhouse?

- I understand if you can't go. I do.

It's OK. Trent will be with me.

- It's a perk of not having a badge right now.

I don't have to worry about creating

a jurisdictional problem.

I can just help.

- No, no.

I'll come. I want to come.

I can't avoid an entire state just because something bad

happened to me once, right?

This is for Denae.

- Boyfriend is controlling, possessive.

- Yeah? Tell me something I don't know.

- Denae stayed with him despite these unbecoming attributes.

Implies they are familiar to her.

Control, possession...

she's experienced that before in her life.

Likely someone close to her.

Family member, maybe.

You're going to the reservation, aren't you?

Ensuring ample sustenance while you're gone.

I see. Is Heavy Boots going with you?

- The grandmother isn't the controlling sort.

Maybe someone else she was close to on the reservation?

Maybe that's why she left.

- I don't appreciate you ignoring my question.

Hey, you.

Where was the car?

- All right, we are technically on the reservation.

One of my buddies at Virginia PD

said a report about Denae's abandoned car

came in just a few hours ago.

- It's locked.

- I got it.

- I like suspended Trent.

Is that...

- Blood.

- All right, well, there's nothing wrong with the car,

which means it didn't break down.

And the gas tank is full too.

- We passed a gas station a half mile up.

If Denae went into early labor or needed help

and couldn't drive, maybe she stopped there.

If they have surveillance footage, Zeke will find it.

Is it too much to ask for a decent meal?

Lacey, you OK?

Yeah.

- Get away from the car.

- Hey, hey, hey. Whoa. It's OK. It's OK.

I'm... we are private investigators.

You can lower the gun.

- I don't trust folks I don't know.

So I'll ask you again, step away from the car.

- I don't think you understand.

This vehicle belongs to...

- Denae Wagon. - Wait. You know Denae?

- She's my sister.

- I know you don't know us, but I promise you

our only intention is to help you find out

what happened to your sister.

- Why should I believe you?

- Because your grandma Rose hired us to find Denae.

Now, normally I would take time for pleasantries.

But after what we just found, we have no time to waste.

- Oh, my God. - It's blood.

Denae could be in early labor or hurt or both.

We need to search this area.

- Look, we started forming a search party

on the reservation.

Hey, get everybody here... now!

- You heard him. Let's go, guys. Let's go!

- Denae! - Denae!

- Denae!

- Denae! Denae!

- Denae!

Denae!

- Denae!

Pick up.

- Still no answer from the gas station?

- No, and whatever system they use must be hard-lined,

because I can't hack in at all.

- Here, listen to this.

- Hey, just letting you know I'm almost home.

Wait, hold on.

I'll text you when I arrive. Love you.

- Did you hear that at the end?

- Yeah, Denae said something else.

- Yeah, but I can't make it out.

Can... can you... can you isolate the last, like,

four seconds and boost the audio?

- Yeah, I'm on it.

You can go to the bus station.

I can send this to you when it's done.

- No, I still have a few minutes.

- OK.

Jeez, I...

I hate not being on the reservation, looking with them.

Yeah, I know.

- But we're looking from here, in our own way.

- And that's enough for you?

- Yeah, it has to be.

With every new case, I have to be cognizant of how long

it'll take me to get back to the bus station,

'cause I have to be there by 9:00 p.m.

I mean, I miss out on a lot of moments because of that,

like the search right now.

But we can't think of it as failing.

I mean, we're coping so that we can help.

We're doing the best we can.

And that best has brought a lot of people home.

- Yeah.

The audio file is done rendering.

- I'll text you when I arrive. Love you.

I missed you.

- Her voice changed.

The "missed you" was to someone else.

But what was that rustling at the end?

- It was a hug.

Denae knows this person.

You have to find the surveillance footage ASAP.

- OK.

- So can you tell me what happened?

- Denae's father passed when she was six,

and her mother left the family soon after.

- It must have been hard, raising two kids by yourself.

- Yeah, it was hard on all of us but the kids mostly.

I worked a lot, and I wasn't always around.

- Who took care of the kids while you were working?

- I did. I was the only one

who was keeping her out of trouble,

while I was trying to keep what was left

of our family together.

But none of that mattered.

She chose a white boy living in the big city

over her own blood.

- And this is why I did not tell you

that Denae was coming home.

You hold on too tight, Kai.

Denae has a right to choose her own way.

- Yeah, and look what happened her.

- I'm sorry, are you blaming your sister

for what's happening to her?

- I don't blame her.

I blame my grandmother.

Look, you could have told me that Denae was coming back.

We could have worked something out.

- Is this Ada? I'd love to talk to her.

- You don't get to talk to my wife

or anyone else on this reservation.

If you have any questions, you go through me.

- This whole controlling nonsense,

is that why your sister left in the first place?

- You insult me as you stand here as a guest in my home?

- Kai.

- Denae's case is my jurisdiction.

I decide how this investigation is handled.

So you're DCPD.

What'd you get suspended for, police brutality?

- No, he took the fall for me so I could save someone's life,

which I am desperately trying to do for your sister.

- Seriously, nothing?

- Nothing, not even a rustle of a curtain?

And I know they can hear us.

- I didn't give Kai enough credit.

He has some serious control over this community.

- Denae is somewhere out there, and no one cares.

- They care. They're just scared.

I'm starting to think Denae wasn't running

from her community as much as she was running from Kai.

You OK?

No, but...

I just want to find Denae and get the hell out of Virginia.

- I know.

Hey, you're safe.

Virginia is just a place.

The farmhouse is just a building.

Sir has no control or power over you anymore.

- Thanks to you.

- Are you the ones asking around about Denae?

- We are trying to find her and bring her back home safe.

- Are you sure she even wants to come back home

after what Kai did to her?

- I was raised in this community,

with the same traditions you all were.

I am not defined by an ID card.

I am defined by my ancestors.

I won't be stripped of my heritage.

I recorded this

at a tribal court hearing for Denae.

After she fell in love with that white boy

and left the reservation, Kai was so angry,

he tried to have her disenrolled from our tribe.

Denae came back, fought for her right

to stay a member, and won.

- Do you think that Kai would try

to stop Denae from coming back?

- Hard to say.

He loves his sister, but Kai hates disobedience.

- Thank you so much for speaking with us.

I know you must be taking a big risk.

- Kai doesn't scare me.

He and his wife have done the worst on us,

and my brother and I are still standing.

- His wife? Ada? What happened?

- My brother's wife and baby died during childbirth,

and Ada was their midwife.

It was malpractice, and we tried

to have her license revoked,

but Kai shut it down.

- Ada's a midwife?

- Excuse me.

Hey, Zeke.

- I got the footage from the gas station.

Just give me two minutes.

One more sec. Almost got it.

You should have it.

- Is that the link?

- Pulling it up now.

- Are you OK? - Yeah.

Here we go.

- That must have been when she was talking to Hannah.

Oh, my God, Gabi.

- That's why Kai didn't want us to talk to her.

Ada was the last person to see Denae.

- Rose said Ada was here? - Yeah, but, Lacey,

we have to handle this carefully.

- Lacey, wait!

- Where's Denae?

We know you were at the gas station.

What happened? She go into labor?

You kill that baby too? - Lacey!

- Stop! You can't go in there, please!

You just disrupted a woman in the process of transitioning

into the spirit world.

- I set clear boundaries, and you blew right past them,

interrupting a sacred ceremony

and accusing my wife for somehow being responsible

for Denae's disappearance?

The disrespect that you have shown me and this community

is inexcusable.

- It's my fault.

What happened back there, the way I reacted,

it wasn't like me, and I'm sorry.

- It was never our intention to disrespect your community,

and for that, we apologize.

But the fact still remains that Ada was the last person

to see Denae, and she lied about it.

There's video proof.

- Ada, what are they talking about?

- Damn it, answer her.

Did Denae go into labor?

Did something happen to her or the baby?

- I swear, I'm not responsible for her disappearance.

- Just like you aren't responsible

for that mom and baby that died under your care?

- Did May tell you that?

Did she also tell you that her sister-in-law had eclampsia?

There was nothing I could have done to save either of them.

- Why was Denae upset on the video?

- Because I told her that I changed my mind

about delivering her baby.

There was always so much arguing and hostility

between Kai and Denae, so I told her

it would be best for her to have her baby in D.C.

But then when I found out she was missing, I felt guilty.

I was the one who turned her away.

- I want you off my reservation.

- This is not about you, Kai.

So they're staying.

- You do what you want, but I'm gonna continue

the search without them.

- You guys go join the search.

I have to go over a couple of things.

It feels like there's something in this case we're missing.

I'll meet up with you guys later.

- I'm so happy you've come to accept our life together.

No!

I'm...

I... I'm sorry.

- Sit.

We're having dinner.

I think "The Ponds" is my favorite chapter in Walden.

The way he conceptualizes the ideal self, that...

to reach a certain caliber of purity,

one must become...

become both.

- Would you like to know why I chose

this farmhouse as our home?

It's because it borders an area that people pay no mind to.

Police turn a blind eye to what happens around here.

- No.

- If you ever run away again, I'll make sure that your body

ends up on that border... the space between,

where no one will ever find you.

- I just wanted to make sure you're OK.

- I know where to look for Denae.

The space between jurisdictions where no one thinks to look.

This way.

- Denae! - Denae!

Denae! - Denae!

- Denae! - Denae!

- Denae!

Denae! - Denae!

- Dhan!

Oh!

Denae, honey, I'm Gabi.

Hold on.

- Doctor.

Baby. - Don't worry.

We're getting you to a doctor right now.

- Gabi. - Yeah?

Who took your baby, Denae?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Denae? Denae!

- It's a miracle she's even alive.

- Did the blood transfusion help?

- We should know soon.

- The longer we wait for Denae to wake up,

the more time we lose looking for her baby.

I'm gonna go find a doctor.

If Denae can't tell us what happened, maybe her body can.

- Hi, Dr. Potter.

Do you remember me from... from yesterday?

- Yes, you were part of that team looking for Denae.

- We found her.

- Oh, that's... that's incredible.

- Yeah. - And the baby?

- Wasn't with her, which is why we think

that it'll be a good idea for Denae

if you were there when she woke up.

I mean, her recovery won't be easy,

but you're probably the only face

that she trusts right now, and she'll need you.

- Well, I'm afraid that I can't come at the moment.

You caught me on my way out. I'm in a bit of a rush.

- OK, I understand, but I mean, she's your patient.

- Well, I have many patients...

another that needs me right now.

Are you all right?

- Sorry, I just got... I got a little lightheaded.

It's been a long 24 hours.

Could... could I have a glass of water before I go?

- Yes. Yes, of course.

Stay here.

- Mm.

- According to the on-call ob-gyn,

there's no way Denae could have delivered her own baby.

The bruising on her abdomen and the incisions made

to help her deliver the baby aren't self-inflicted.

- So someone delivered the baby for her out there?

- Someone who knew what they were doing.

- Ada? Maybe she had everyone fooled.

- The last thing Denae said to me before she passed out

was "baby" and "doctor."

I think she was trying to tell me her doctor took the baby.

- Guys, Margaret is at Dr. Potter's house right now.

Oh, my God. Hi.

OK, come here, bubba. Come here, bubba.

Come here. Come here.

I got you. I got you.

Give me my baby.

- This is Denae's baby, not yours.

I'm a mom. I know the signs.

The dark circles under your eyes...

you haven't been sleeping.

The... the muddy boots in the foyer,

as if you've been walking through the forest.

And the rain soundtrack.

It's for newborns.

I used to play it for my children.

How could you do this to Denae? She trusted you.

- And I trusted Denae to do what was best for her child.

I told her not to have that baby on the reservation.

A midwife with no resources isn't equipped

to deliver a breeched baby.

So when she called me from the highway in labor,

I knew right then that she was unfit to raise this child.

I can give this baby the right kind of life,

the kind I was never able to give my own.

- You lost a child?

- My wife had a... precarious pregnancy.

I told her, don't drive in the final trimester.

But she did anyway, and she got into an accident.

In one brief moment,

I lost my wife and my child.

Nobody listened to me.

Not my wife, not Denae.

Do you have any idea what it feels like

to hand baby after baby over to new parents

every delivery and yet feel so empty?

- I imagine it felt like losing your child

over and over again.

- I don't begrudge these new parents their happiness.

They were fit parents.

They listened to me.

They relied on me, unlike Denae.

So when she called, I saw an opportunity to take back

that which was taken from me.

I figured she'd die from her birth wounds, so...

I left her...

right where she always wanted to be,

in the space between the reservation and D.C.

- I know what it's like to lose a child.

There's pain like no other.

But Denae's life, nor her baby's, is yours to take.

- I won't lose another child.

No.

But I'm done letting people make decisions for me.

I'm coming back to the reservation

to raise my daughter.

I want her to grow up around her tribe

and know that part of her can never be taken.

What is it?

- What the hell happened?

- It's Sir.

There's been a credible sighting near your house.

- Greg, move your head.
