[Suspenseful music]

[Music brightens]

[Birds chirping]

[Tile clanking, sighs]

- Off in the clouds again?

- I'm just daydreaming about this past month.

Impromptu wedding and now, a brand-new house?

I just... I can't believe it's all ours.

- I can't believe you said yes. [Giggles]

[Door closes, footsteps approaching]

- Ew! Get a room!

- Huh, better get used to it.

- I'd rather lock myself in my room, thanks.

[Laughs]

- Which, by the way, is already way better than the old place.

- Well, I am just happy that we found a place that we all liked.

I was worried we'd be stuck in my old apartment forever.

- I liked your apartment. - I didn't.

It smelled like cabbage. - Hey, watch it, Kira.

- It's okay, Cam. And thank you, Maddie.

It was way too small for the four of us, though. - Yeah, totally.

We have so much more space now.

And not enough stuff for our rooms.

I need some like, art, or shelves, or something.

- Tell you girls what, give me a couple more hours

to unpack the bedroom and then,

maybe I can take you guys to the mall and we can get some décor for your rooms?

- Okay! - Sure!

- Okay, cool!

Can you take this one out? - Yeah. - All right.

[Calm music]

[Frame clunks gently]

- Well, hello.

Wow! [Box thumps on floor, grunts]

You really accomplish a lot when no one bugs you.

- Efficiency is my middle name.

[Laughs] - I thought it was Celeste?

- Yeah. Lacey Celeste Efficiency Wilson.

[Laughs] - Come here.

Do you know how grateful I am for you?

- I do.

You could tell me again if you want, though. - Hmm.

I never thought the girls could find someone who compared to their mother.

When she died...

I'm sorry. - Hey.

I get it.

I lost a mom to cancer, too.

[Melancholy music]

- After six years of failed relationships,

I thought it was hopeless.

And then I met you.

[Chuckles under breath]

[Music brightens]

- So, what's on the docket for school on Monday?

- I have a geology test. - Nice. Kira?

- Uh, dissecting frogs, or something. - Gross.

- I think I skipped that class back in the day.

I wasn't super into school.

Spent most of my time in the library with my sister, reading books on true crime.

- Oh, Dad never lets us read anything like that.

He never lets us do anything, so. - That's not true.

We went mini golfing last week.

- I meant with our own friends.

- Well, he's just overprotective.

That is normal dad attitude.

It's dad-itude.

- Ugh. [All laugh]

- Have you asked Dad if we can help on your podcast yet?

- Uh, he's still thinking about it. - Ugh.

My friends at school would die

if they found out I was helping on your podcast.

You know, everyone listens to it.

Even the teachers.

Imagine if we helped solve some of the cold cases.

We could have our own show.

The... Murder Sisters,

or something creepy, something like that.

- I don't think I can handle all the, you know, gross stuff.

- And that is perfectly fine.

Listen, it's in your dad's hands now.

Whatever he says, goes. - Come on, Lacey!

Can't you convince him to let us help?

Don't you have some say now that you're new mom?

- Listen, my full mom powers haven't been activated yet.

[Calm music]

[Sighs] [Footsteps clack]

- Ugh.

That last episode was intense.

Oh, I feel a little queasy.

- That's a new one. - Yeah.

Think I might be turning into Maddie.

My stomach can't handle all the gory details.

- Or maybe it's the baby?

- Yeah, it could be her, too. [Chuckles]

- We need to keep you in tip-top shape over the next few days

because there is a lot of stuff going on.

- Ugh. Don't remind me.

- Oh, but I'm definitely going to.

Tomorrow you have the interview with the Northway Times,

and then we have to prep for the Pembrooke Podcast Festival.

They said all your meet-and-greet spots have sold out.

- Okay. [Phone chimes]

- Oh, and we just got our information for the booth.

- That's amazing. - Great.

- Uh, I just need a glass of water.

Do you want anything? - Uh, no, I'm good.

I'm actually just gonna wait for Valentine. - Sounds good.

[Mysterious music]

[Door clicks open, Lacey sighs]

[Computer chimes]

[Scoffs]

"More feminist propaganda."

"This podcast sucks."

"Lucy sounds like a chain-smoker."

"Lacey... " at least they got my name right.

[Ominous music]

"How does it feel to make a profit off the death's of others?"

[Lids clunks closed]

[Blows out breath]

- How was your vacation? - Amazing.

You'd love the cabin the four of us holed up at.

We should go there sometime before the baby comes.

A mini vacation. - Vacation?

What is that? [Chuckles]

- You went a few years ago, didn't you?

Cabo, right?

- Oh yeah. You have a good memory.

I didn't even remember that.

- How's the new house? Are you all settled in?

I'm sorry I couldn't help unpack.

- No worries. You know, I wanna have you guys over

once we're just out of the disaster zone.

- And maybe we can let you settle in to mom life. [Chuckles]

- But she's already in mom life with Kira and Maddie.

- Well, we'll figure it out.

Where are we on new potential cases?

- You two are gonna love this.

Two murders in the past six years.

Both cold cases. Both in towns close to here.

And both have some eerie similarities.

This first one is Sarah Mitchell.

- Kinda looks like you. - Yeah.

- And this is Marisa Hunter. Murdered three years ago.

Both Marisa and Sarah were stabbed to death in their homes

and discovered by their boyfriends.

No sign of forced entry for either.

And both had some personal items reported missing after the fact.

Sarah was missing a family ring.

Marisa was missing a necklace.

- Their killer took trophies. - And only three years ago.

I can't believe we haven't heard about this.

- There wasn't a ton of information on either of them.

But I think their killer is going to strike again.

- Why?

- First it was Sarah.

Three years later it was Marisa.

Guess how long it's been since Marisa's murder?

I don't wanna jump to any conclusions

but this could be a serial killer.

- Well, there is potentially a pattern

but I think that we should dig a little deeper before we say for sure.

Valentine, I want you to do a deep dive on Marisa.

I need all the details.

We need to know her inside and out so that we can really give her a voice.

I have to go but I will see you both later.

- Where are you headed? - I have a doctor's appointment

and then, a meeting that I cannot miss.

[Suspenseful music]

[Papers crinkle]

[Office phone ringing]

[Cellphone chimes]

- Everything okay?

- Yeah, no, um, every... thing is fine.

I'm just... work is crazy. - That explains it then.

- Uh, explains what?

- Your blood pressure is through the roof.

You're at a risk for preeclampsia, which isn't good for you or your baby.

- How is she doing? - She's fine.

She's measuring normal.

Heartbeat is strong, healthy.

But you keep this pace up...

- Okay, so what can I do?

- Well, bed rest is a good start. - Okay, for how long?

- 'Til the baby comes.

- That... uh, I'm sorry, but that's a couple months.

- I can prescribe you some medication

but removing yourself from the stress is the best solution.

Think about it?

Not just for the baby's sake, but for your own.

- Thank you.

[Ominous music]

- Come on. Come on.

Stop. [Laugh]

- Do we have to do this? - Yes!

Family game night is fun. - Yeah!

Fun... damentally boring.

- Oh, that's very smart. - Hmm.

- I like it, so... - Thank you, Maddie.

And you should really try and be a little more receptive.

- Hmm.

- This is important to Lacey, this bonding time.

And it should be important to us too, okay?

Okay? - Okay.

- You guys? I found it!

And it is still in such good condition.

Seriously, Jocelyne and I used to play this all the time.

It is so fun. You guys are gonna love it.

Trust me. [Sentimental music]

- What do you say loser does dishes for a week?

[Blows raspberry] - Yeah?

- Loser's a strong term. - I'm gonna pass.

- Come on, you guys, we need stakes! - Okay, I'm in.

I'm in. - Come on.

You're in? Okay, you girls, you're in?

- What are you scared of? - I... I don't lose. - We'll beat them.

- Cam, this one's for you. - Nice.

- Ooh, I'll be that!

[Birds chirping]

[Suspenseful music]

[Eggs sizzling, spatula scraping]

- Hey, morning! - Mornin'.

- Hmm.

- Have you seen my bracelet? - Oh no.

Um, but we can look for it after breakfast?

- Okay.

When are you back on nights?

- Oh, later this week.

One of my best electricians just quit

so I have to pick up the slack

until I can find a replacement for her. - Yep.

It's what you have to do when you're the boss.

- Yeah, well, it is what it is.

But I'm still here for family night.

What do you girls wanna do this week?

- No more board games, please.

- Um... I am pretty sure that you were having a blast last night.

- Oh, no, no, no, she's just upset because she lost.

[Sucks air] Dishes for the whole week.

How's that feel? [Laughs under breath]

- Hey, is everything okay?

You can talk to us.

- Have you thought about letting us help with Lacey's show yet?

[Sighs] - Yeah.

Um, no, I, uh... don't think it's a good idea.

I don't want you two getting involved in something...

you know, gruesome.

Eat your breakfast.

- We wanna help.

You said we could.

- No, I said that it was up to your dad.

- We can handle it. - Okay, that's enough, Kira.

- We're not kids anymore. - Enough!

- What? Lacey still does it even though her sister...

- I said that's enough!

- You never let me do anything.

You know, I hate being trapped at home.

And I hate you.

[Exhales] - Kira.

- Oh!

[Exhales] [Chair rasps on floor]

- I'll go look for your bracelet. - Okay.

[Melancholic music]

[Giggles awkwardly]

- Kira!

[Suspenseful music]

[Footsteps stomp on stairs, approaching]

[Sighs]

[Bracelet jingles]

[Doorbell chimes]

[Sighs] [Lid clunks closed]

[Items clatter]

[Sighs]

[Door clicks open, dog barks in the distance]

[Envelope crinkles]

[Paper crinkles] [Threatening music]

[Gasps] [Ominous music]

- It was at your front door?

- Yeah, B, it was a photo of Jocelyne and I

with our faces scratched off. - Oh, that's unsettling.

- Yeah. - What picture?

- No, the same one that Jocelyne got.

[Phone buzzes] Hold on.

[Winces in pain]

Uh, hey B, I gotta go, but I'll see you tomorrow.

Okay? - Okay. Stay safe.

- Okay. Ah!

Where...

[Pills rattle in bottle]

[Gloomy music]

[Swallows hard] Ugh.

[Inhales and exhales deeply] Okay.

[Message alert chimes]

[Key clacks]

[Message alert chimes]

[Menacing music]

[Message alerts chiming successively]

[Keys clacking quickly]

[Music swells]

[Quick knock on door, music stops, Lacey gasps]

Oh, my God.

[Cam exhales] [Lacey exhales deeply] - Cam.

I almost popped the baby out. - I'm sorry.

I didn't realize you were so on edge.

Is it the new episode you're working on?

- Yeah.

This one's just... uh... difficult.

[Exhales] - I thought you could use a break.

How about dinner at Chez Marcel's?

- Yes. [Laughs happily]

- Okay, great. I'll go uh, get ready.

- Okay.

[Footsteps thump away]

[Menacing music resumes]

[Exhales deeply]

[Pills rattle in bottle, drawer rasps open and closed]

[Gentle music] - Ah, that was delicious.

- Mm-hmm. [Laughs]

Oh, both baby and I are very satisfied.

[Laughs] [Sighs]

- You know, it still feels like yesterday we met on our blind date.

And now, here we are.

About to be parents. [Laughs]

- I got extra lucky that you have two beautiful girls.

I feel so grateful to get to help raise them.

[Sighs]

- Cam, hun, what is it?

Are you okay?

[Breathes shakily]

There's something... - Hi.

So sorry to interrupt, but are you Lacey Wilson?

- Yeah. That's me. - Oh!

I'm your biggest fan.

The episode you did about the murders at Willard?

Riveting!

I can't believe the killer left those women in a pit to die!

It was brutal.

And what he did to their bodies!

- Yeah, that episode was tough.

- I, for one, can't wait 'til your new episode.

What was the dead lady's name?

Martha?

Marishka? - Excuse me.

- Cam!

Oh, excuse me. [Footsteps thump away]

Cam.

Honey.

Hey, I'm sorry about her.

You know that happens sometimes.

- It's your podcast. Your fans.

People talk about murder

like murder is the most normal thing in the world.

I just... I-I don't get it.

I don't get how you can do it.

[Crickets chirping]

Look, I've thought about it some more and uh...

I don't want Kira and Maddie involved.

- Look, we all have this thirst for knowledge.

So, I think it's natural for the girls to wanna explore it.

[Cam exhales sharply]

I hate how much attention you get from this.

Like the time that woman showed up at your apartment and wouldn't leave?

I don't want that to happen to us in our new home.

- You know that I would never let work interfere

with the life we've built for ourselves, right? - I know!

I guess I just... like,

I thought you'd move on to something else by now.

Aren't you tired of surrounding yourself with death?

I mean, after Jocelyne?

It's just...

it's been haunting you your whole life, hasn't it?

[Melancholic music]

[Cam clicks tongue] - You know what I'm... tired of?

This restaurant.

What do you say we skip dessert?

[Laughs] Yeah?

Is that a yes? [Giggles]

Come on. - Yeah.

[Door clicks open]

[Exhales deeply]

[Envelopes crinkle]

[Worrying music]

[Paper rasps on envelope]

[Music turns sinister]

- She was pregnant when she was murdered.

- That's messed up!

- Yeah. And that's not all of it.

I got a package delivered to the house yesterday.

It was a photo of Jocelyne and I with our faces scratched off.

- I still can't believe that. - Whoever did this

is telling you to back off.

- I think whoever did this is telling me

that Marisa and Jocelyne's deaths are related.

- But her case is solved.

Her killer's behind bars. Right?

- Come with me.

[Footsteps thumping]

[Door clicks open]

- We can use this place to put everything together.

Just uh...

see how the pieces fit.

- I'm surprised you went in here.

It's a smaller room. Aren't you claustrophobic?

- I'm okay, as long as the door's open.

- Huh.

- Hey, do you want us to take over all this?

It's a lot for one person to handle, let alone with a baby.

- I am okay. Really.

- I... hate to say this but...

if Jocelyne and Marisa are connected...

is the wrong person behind bars?

- No.

I identified him.

I helped put him away.

No, this has to be...

...it's something else.

- So, a copycat.

- I'm going to check out a new lead on Marisa after lunch.

I'll let you know if it's worthy.

- Okay.

Can you pick up the festival merch?

- Are you sure about that?

I-I don't know, I feel like we shouldn't be doing business as usual

if there's a copycat out there harassing you.

And what about your blood pressure?

- No, we need to be doing business as usual.

If the killer finds out that we're panicking,

who knows what this person might be capable of? So, no.

We keep going, and we just keep all this information between the three of us, okay.

I don't even want Cam to know.

At least, until I can figure out how to tell him.

[Energetic leading music]

- We have to stay on this.

For Marisa.

[Exhales] And for Jocelyne.

[Screwdriver rattling]

[Grunts, exhales]

[Screwdriver rattling]

- Hey, did you... uh, did you check the truck?

- For what?

- For my bracelet? - Oh, no.

But uh, I can go look right now.

- No, I mean, it's fine.

Maybe just when you're done with this.

[Phone buzzes and chimes]

[Screw grinding in wood]

[Message sent chimes]

[Phone buzzes]

- Uh, listen, Cam, um...

there's something that I wanted to talk to you about.

- You know, this is exactly like Kira and Maddie's crib.

Huh.

You know, same design and everything.

I still remember the days we brought them home. [Sentimental music]

- Oh... they were so small.

I remember thinking that if I held them too hard, they'd break.

Their mother, though,

when she held them...

they looked like they fit perfectly in her arms.

- And I know that's how our baby's going to look with you.

- Hey, where's all this coming from?

[Chokes back tears]

- I just, um...

I've been thinking a lot.

About everything. [Sniffles]

I know I'm protective, I know I'm overbearing,

but I am trying.

I am.

[Sniffles] Ugh.

[Exhales deeply]

The girls can help out with your show,

but only in the smallest capacity.

I still don't want them seeing anything... gruesome.

- Yeah, that's... okay.

That's great!

Just maybe with the next one, because this case is really...

this one's tough.

- Yeah, yeah, when... whenever you think is right.

- Okay.

- Hmm.

Oh, you um... you had something you wanted to say to me?

- Yeah. I...

...love the crib. [Chuckles]

I do.

Yeah, I think we made a good choice.

- Yeah.

[Wind whooshing, leaves rattling]

- Thanks so much for agreeing to help me out, Professor White.

I haven't been able to find out much about Marisa,

uh, except for the fact that she was a student of yours.

[Recording beeps on] What can you tell me about her?

- She was a driven young woman.

She enjoyed being challenged and excelled in my class.

She was just a few months away from graduating

before she was taken from us.

- Was there anything going on with Marisa that you noticed?

- No.

She kept her head down and did her work. That was all.

- Did she have any enemies?

Anyone... I don't know, anyone that would wanna hurt her?

- The police may have had a few leads.

A couple of students who exhibited behavioral issues,

but nothing was ever substantiated.

- But was there ever an official suspect?

- Her boyfriend, but he was cleared.

And another student of mine, Clara Thomas.

- Do you have the boyfriend's name? - No.

- Did... Marisa ever mention a Jocelyne Wilson

or Sarah Mitchell? - Sorry, no.

My turn to ask some questions.

- Go ahead.

- Why are you so interested in a woman you didn't know?

[Sighs]

- My sister, Jocelyne, was murdered.

- Hmm.

- It was 20 years ago now.

Marisa's case,

it reminds me of Jocelyne's.

All of the women that I talk about on my podcast do.

So, that's why I do it.

- Hmm.

Here.

Here.

Marisa's address.

Thank you.

[Lacey's phone rings]

[Call beeps on] - Hey.

- Hey.

Everything okay? - Yeah. Yeah, everything's fine.

I need you to look into a Clara Thomas.

She may have had a thing with Marisa and it'd be good to get her side of it.

- Yeah, will do.

So, can you come down to the festival

to help with set up?

Valentine and I could really use your help,

but only if you're feeling up for it. - Uh, yeah. Yeah.

I just, I need to uh, pick up the girls from school.

- Oh, bring them. They'll love it.

- I don't know, B. There's a lot going on.

- And three sets of eyes on them is better than one.

- I guess Cam did say he was more open to them being involved.

Um, yeah.

Yeah, okay. I'll bring them. I'll see ya soon.

[Call beeps off]

[Indistinct chatter] [Inspirational music]

- Hi. - You shouldn't be carrying anything heavy.

- Oh, Bianca, I'm pregnant, I'm not breakable.

- Hey, I just saw Kira and Maddie.

They've gotten so big.

- Yeah, they are growing like weeds.

- Huh.

How'd the university lead work out?

- Good. Good. It was really good.

Ah. - Hey, everything okay?

- Yeah, no, she's just kicking right now.

- How much time are you taking off when it's born?

- You know, I don't know.

It depends on how well she sleeps, I guess.

- But you're still doing the podcast, right?

- Yeah. I mean, why would I stop?

[Chuckles nervously]

- Okay...

Guess she's stressed. - Yeah.

All right, I need to get one more box.

I think it's in storage. - Oh, wait, let me go get it.

- No, I got it.

Why don't you give Kira and Maddie something to do.

I'll be right back. - On it.

[Door clicks open]

[Door stop rattles]

[Blows out breath] - This one.

[Worrying music] [Box crinkles]

[Door squeaks] [Door clunks closed]

[Ominous music]

- Hello?

Hello?

Can anybody hear me?

Uh, I'm locked in here!

[Loud scratching in hallway]

Hello?

Can anybody hear me out there?!

[Shrieking]: Can anyone hear me?!

Let me outta here!

Hello? [Hand banging on door] Hello?!

Ugh!

[Gasps then pants]

[Ominous music]

[Indistinct chatter] - Excuse me, excuse me. [Phone call ringing]

[Annoyed sigh] Oh, God.

- Lacey, is that you?

- Yeah, hi, yeah, hi.

Uh... Tanedra, right? - Yeah!

- Yeah, gosh, how long has it been?

- About a year since the Podcast Festival in Portland. - Mm-hmm.

- Are you all right? - Yeah, I'm just...

I'm trying to find... uh, Bianca! Hi!

- I saw that you called. I'm so sorry.

My hands were full. - Where are the girls?

- They're just behind the booth. What's up?

[Relieved sigh] Um, sorry,

Bianca, you remember Tanedra?

- Hi! Yes, how's it going?

- Good, good, nice to see you. - Bianca?

- Oh, and this is Valentine.

- I should uh... I think there's one more box.

- No.

This was the last box.

Hmm!

- Come with me.

- Do you two know each other?

- Okay, I am so sorry for what I'm gonna tell you

but yeah, I knew Valentine.

She and I were both researchers on another podcast about six years ago.

- Yeah. Um...

she referenced that when we interviewed her.

It was "The Mystery Tapes," right? That show ended abruptly, didn't it?

- It did. But did she tell you why?

- The host quit.

- That was the line HR wanted us to use

while the investigation was going on but Mary didn't quit.

She disappeared.

Um... Valentine did everything for Mary.

She went above and beyond the job description.

I'm talking running her errands, being a shoulder for Mary to cry on,

things that should not be going on between employer and employee.

- Uh... [Scoffs]

She had the references, though.

I mean, they were checked.

- They were fake. [Mysterious music]

- Okay, sorry, are we talking about the same Valentine here?

Because I know that she can be a little... enthusiastic,

but that's what makes her special.

- She hides her true self well.

Nothing about that woman is real.

[Confused chuckle] - No, this...

this, it doesn't make sense.

- I looked into her, before Mary disappeared.

I found out that her parents abandoned her with her aunt when she was younger

and the two of them moved around so much

she really didn't have the time to create and fully formed relationships.

And when her aunt died,

she started clinging on to anyone who would give her the time of day.

Her need to be loved has grown to dangerous levels.

- Oh.

Okay, so what happened?

- Mary got pregnant

and that was Valentine's last straw.

She said that Mary wouldn't have any more time for her once the baby came.

She tried to end Mary's pregnancy any way that she could.

Things escalated to the point where the police had to detain Valentine for a week.

And when she got out, Mary was gone.

For herself and for the sake of her baby,

she needed to get as far away from that woman as humanly possible.

- Have you spoken to Valentine since?

- No.

It's been years.

When Mary vanished, so did Valentine.

I didn't realize she was still so close to home.

Or that she found somebody else.

[Blows out breath]

- Hey, girls, go pack up your stuff 'cause we're gonna leave in a sec, okay?

- Bye.

What happened?

Tanedra practically ran out of here. - Has Valentine come back yet?

- No. What's going on?

- Right before Tanedra showed up, someone locked me in the supply closet.

- What? - Yeah.

And they carved initials on the door.

- What initials?

- L, J, and M.

- L, J, and M.

Lacey, Jocelyne, and Marisa?

- That's what I think.

- You think the copycat's here?

- Just call me if Valentine shows up, okay?

In the meantime, take the girls to the office

and I will meet you there. - Okay.

Wait, where are you going? - To Marisa's house.

- Um...

[Tires rumble] [Cuts engine]

[Suspenseful music]

[Blows out breath]

[Door rattles]

- Can I help you?

- How long have you lived here?

- Oh, I'd say close to 40 years now.

I've seen a lot of young families come and go on this street.

- And Marisa was your neighbor for two years, right? - Mm-hmm.

- What can you tell me about her?

- She was a very well put together young woman.

Always out and about but she always had time to stop for a chat.

- Was Marisa seeing anyone?

- Aaron...

Aaron Blake.

Yes, there was something very odd about him.

He's a very closed person.

Very cold.

Which is odd considering what a warm person she was.

- Do you know how I could get in contact with Aaron?

- Oh, I haven't seen him in years.

I wouldn't know where to start. - Hmm.

What about the house?

Has it been for sale since the murder? - Oh, yes.

Empty and rotting.

I mean, hardly anyone comes to see it.

I mean, why would anyone want to live in a house like that? - Huh.

- Uh...

I'm sorry, dear, I wish I could remember more.

- That's fine. You have been very helpful.

If you think of anything else,

please give me a call. - Yes.

I see shadows sometimes at night.

In the house.

- A shadow? - Mm-hmm.

Tried to catch them a couple of times to see who it is,

but I can never catch them.

Well, who do you think it is?

- Marisa's killer, of course!

Who else would it be?

[Disturbing music]

[Computer keys clacking] - Hey.

Your kids are getting real anxious.

They've asked about 10 million times if we can go home.

- Yes, and we will soon.

Um, has Valentine tried to get in touch yet?

- Not, but Tanedra filled me in after you left.

Do you believe that?

- After everything that's happened,

it's the best explanation I have.

- Well, I looked into Valentine's old podcast.

Turns out everything that Tanedra said was true.

And it can be backed up by police reports.

- How did we miss this when we interviewed her?

- I... I have no idea. - We gotta find her.

Get to the bottom of this before things start spiraling. - Mm-hmm.

- Also, did you ever manage to get in touch with Clara Thomas?

- No, but I did reach her brother.

Clara has been in and out of rehab for the past five years

and she was in treatment when Marisa was murdered.

- Great. A dead end.

I did find the name of Marisa's boyfriend, though, Aaron Blake,

so let's see what we can find on him

because I think that he might actually be

the key to some of this. I haven't been able to ... [Lights clunk off]

- Did we forget to pay the electric bill?

[Suspenseful music]

- Can you go find the girls?

I'm gonna check the panel. - Yeah.

[Door creaks open]

[Switches click]

[Door clunks closed]

- Did you find the girls? - Yeah, they're outside.

- All right.

[Sniffs] Do you smell that?

- Yeah, kind of. What is that? [Sniffs]

[Phone beeps off]

- Oh, shoot.

Uh, why don't you go check it out.

I'm gonna look for a candle. [Footsteps thumping]

[Music swells]

[Hissing in distance]

[Hissing intensifies]

[Gasps]

Lacey!

Lacey!

Lacey!

[Music intensifies]

[Lighter snaps]

- Okay, thanks.

All right, the gas is off and maintenance is on their way.

- Great. - So, we can head home.

Girls, uh, get in the car, please?

- The rip in that gas line wasn't an accident.

- It was Valentine. It has to be.

You know, I'm starting to wonder about everything

that has happened since we took the Marisa case.

And since I got pregnant. - So, what are you saying?

You think that Valentine is copycatting your sister's and Marisa's murders

just to get to you?

[Exhales sharply] - I honestly don't know.

But too much has happened for it to all be a coincidence, right?

[Sighs] [Doors clunk closed]

[Mysterious music]

[Photo crinkles]

[Sighs]

[Inhales and exhales deeply]

Ugh...

[Footsteps tap away]

[Footsteps clunk, approaching]

- Lacey?

[Sinister music]

[Photo flops]

[Panting]

[Pills rattle in bottle]

[Panting]

[Shrieks]

- Maddie? - Lacey!!

[Footsteps tap, approaching]

- Maddie, I am...

so sorry that you saw all that.

I've put everything away.

- I don't think I'm cut out for this murder stuff.

[Sniffles] - And you don't have to be.

- Kira's right.

Talking about this stuff, it is not for everyone.

- So, why do you do it?

So you can feel better about your sister?

- Yeah.

And because I want people to know Jocelyne's name.

Not that she was just some victim,

but that she was a living, breathing person who loved spaghetti,

and rainy days, and painting,

and hated romcoms, and chihuahuas, and bad drivers, and she was...

[Chokes up] [Sighs]

- You must really miss her.

- More than anything. [Door slams in distance]

- Marisa, she... [Cam]: Maddie!

- Cam?

Uh, you're home early.

- Yeah, Kira texted me. I got here as soon as I could.

[Hurried breathing] Shh.

Are you okay? - We're fine.

Everybody is okay.

- Go inside.

- What? - Inside, now.

[Huffing] - Cam, listen.

- I don't know what's going on in that head of yours

but we need to have a serious conversation about all this once Maddie's calmed down.

[Mysterious music]

- I thought I might find you here.

- Today has been somethin'.

[Thumbs clang on mug] [Scoffs]

- I brought the crime scene photos home

and Maddie found them.

You should've... should've heard her, B.

The way she screamed.

And I just...

I want the girls to like me, so I thought that bringing them into this

would score me some mom points, not scar them for life.

- Well, Lacey, those girls love you unconditionally.

- Yeah, I just... I feel like I need to be trying extra hard,

you know, especially right now.

[Sighs]

- So... I looked into Aaron.

There is nothing on him,

other than one or two articles about Marisa.

- Great. Another dead end.

[Lacey's phone chimes]

- It's Valentine. She wants to meet.

- What are you gonna do?

- Get a restraining order.

[Chuckles]

I would like to know what she has, though.

But is it worth it?

[Sinister music]

[Crickets chirping]

[Light switch clicks]

[Door clunks open, bottles rattle]

[Ominous music]

- Huh.

[Bracelet jingles]

[Music intensifies]

[Footsteps run away]

[Breathing quickly] [Banister crashes] [Screaming]

[Music intensifies]

[Car whooshes]

- So someone tampered with the railing?

- I have been lugging boxes up and down those stairs since we moved in.

It's never felt unstable.

[Exhales sharply] - Who could've done this?

- I... I think it was Valentine. [Ominous music]

- How's the baby? - She's fine.

But your blood pressure has gotten worse.

I'm putting you on bed rest 'til the baby comes.

- What is she talking about? - It's nothing. It's...

- It doesn't sound like nothing.

Why didn't you tell me about this?

- I didn't want you to worry.

[Sighs] I'm sorry.

- Hey.

[Footsteps tapping]

- Okay. [Plates clanging]

- Do you... need anything?

A... water or...

I don't know, some aspirin?

- I'm fine. [Plates clanging]

- Look, why don't you go lie down.

Let me take care of this. - I'm okay, really, I just... I need to stay busy.

- The doctor said you needed rest.

- I need to just finish up here,

then I need to go to Pembrooke to finish unpack.

- You need to stop doing your podcast.

[Melancholic music] [Cam exhales sharply]

Maddie is traumatized over those photos.

Valentine, a woman you knew and trusted,

broke into our house and sabotaged the attic stairs.

This job is threatening our lives!

Nowhere is safe! Not even our own home.

[Breathes deeply] Look, it's not just us

that we have to think about anymore.

It's our child.

- This job,

it's important to me.

I can't just... walk away.

[Exhales] - Even after all this?

Pffft.

There's only so much I can do to protect you and the girls,

but if you're going to put yourself in harm's way!

- I'm not putting myself in harm's way! - You're being selfish!

- I am not being selfish! - You are baiting danger into our lives.

- I'm not baiting danger, okay?!

I think that whoever is after me knows more about Marisa and Jocelyne's murders!

- Jocelyne's murderer is in jail.

- Well, I'm not sure...

that the man I helped convict actually killed her.

I just, I bumped into him on my way into the apartment complex.

So it was just a flash. I didn't...

I just wasn't really paying attention because why would I be?

The first thing I saw was all the blood.

That's when I saw my sister.

Lifeless.

Just limp as a doll.

So when the police showed me that lineup,

I picked him out

and I told them that I was 100% sure

that that man killed my sister.

But then I've always had just like...

a sliver of doubt.

What if I picked the wrong man?

[Sighs] [Sniffles] Ugh.

So there's a reason I do this.

There is a reason that I have to do this.

And it's because I don't want any other woman to feel as broken as me.

I don't want anyone to feel as afraid...

helpless, and small as I did that night.

[Sniffles]

But if it's gonna cost me everything that I love...

[Sighs]

Uh...

- Where are you going? - Out.

[Foot thuds on cupboard]

- Ugh!!

[Blows out breath]

[Hopeful music]

- My dearest voice for the silent listeners.

I wanted to tell you how grateful I've felt

every day for the past five years.

How you've changed my life, and how, together,

we've played an integral role

in bringing many forgotten voices to rest.

But all good things must come to an end.

Though it is a dark day here in the studio,

I know that you'll continue to band together,

to keep that community afloat,

and maintain the friendships that you've made.

And though you may not hear from us again,

know that we'll always be thinking of you

and the time that we had together.

From myself, Lacey Wilson, and Bianca Garcia,

we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

And remember, if you heard it here,

it must be true.

[Computer key clicks]

And we're out. [Sighs]

[Crickets chirping]

[Exhales deeply]

[Melancholic music]

[Sheets rustle]

[Crickets chirping]

[Exhales] [Wood cracks in distance]

[Footsteps shuffle, approaching] - Hey. Hmm.

- Another nightmare?

- Yeah.

- I'm sorry Dad made you quit your podcast.

- Your dad didn't make me do anything.

I made the decision that's best for our family.

- But it's your life.

- Sometimes when you're a parent,

you have to make sacrifices.

- I wish I was as strong as you.

- Hey.

You are one of the sweetest, smartest people that I know.

Don't you ever devalue yourself.

- Honey, what is it?

[Clicks tongue] - I...

[Lacey's phone chimes] - Ugh.

- What's Valentine saying?

- She has new information on the Marisa case.

- What information?

- She didn't say.

And she wants me to meet her at her place.

- This could be your last chance to help Marisa.

Would you be able to live with yourself if you didn't?

[Suspenseful music]

- If you don't hear from me in 30 minutes, call the police.

[Rapping knocks on door]

[Indistinct recorded voice in distance]

[Door creaks open]

[Lacey]: Hello?

Valentine?

[Sinister music]

[Light switch clicks on]

[Lacey's final podcast plays] ...good things must come to an end.

Though it is a dark day here in the studio,

I know that you'll continue to band together,

to keep that community afloat.

[Music swells] [Gasping]

[Music intensifies]

[Police sirens wailing]

- I am sorry. I am so, so sorry.

I didn't know. I didn't know that she was a-a dang...

I just, I-I wasn't thinking. - It's okay. It's okay.

You're safe now.

- I'm done.

I am 100% done. - Mrs. Wilson,

we just have a few more questions and then you can be on your way.

- Yeah.

- Did you know about her former accusations?

- No.

No, I didn't know anything.

When I... when I met her, she said that she was interested in true crime

and she wanted to help solve cold cases.

[Chuckles under breath] She reminded me of myself.

- We removed several items from Ms. Jones' home.

Some personal notes and items

that indicated she knew more about the Marisa Hunter case than she let on.

- What items?

- Would you have any reason to believe that Ms. Jones killed Marisa?

- No. No, that's not possible.

- Why? [Stammers]

- Okay, okay.

Okay. - Thank you for your time.

You should get home.

[Police car engine starts]

[Cam, softly]: Hey.

[Melancholic music]

[Doorbell chimes]

[Footsteps tap, approaching]

- Hey. - Hi.

- How's it goin'? - Uh, good. Good.

Come in. - Thanks.

- What's in the box?

Did I leave something at the office?

- Oh, um... this is uh, awkward but um...

Valentine...

left this at my place the night of um...

you know.

- I mean, what's in it?

- I didn't open it.

I thought you should have it.

You know, stash it, or throw it away.

Whatever you decide.

I'm sorry. This is stupid.

I'll... I'll go throw it away. - No, no.

Um... just leave it.

Come on, I actually... I wanted to show you something. - Okay.

[Footsteps clunk on stairs]

[Both chuckle happily]

[Calm, happy music]

- I am so happy for you.

I really am. - Thank you.

Look, I know things came to a... screeching halt.

But I hope that you'll stick around.

For me.

And for the baby.

She would be lucky to have someone like you in her life.

- Well, once she's outta there,

you are going to have a very difficult time getting rid of me.

[Both laugh] - I hope so.

Oh! Oh my gosh, she's kicking right now.

Wait, put your hand right here. - No.

- Feel that? - Oh! Yeah!

- That's her foot. - That's her foot?

- It is. It's so crazy.

[Sentimental music]

[Music turns gloomy]

- Hello again. - Helen, hi.

How are you? - I'm fine, dear. How about you?

- I'm well, thanks.

- Tell me, did you find out anything else about Marisa?

- Uh, we did, actually. - Oh?

- The police caught the killer. The case is closed.

- Oh, that's wonderful news.

And tell me, was it Aaron?

- No, it was a woman named Valentine Jones.

- A woman?

Oh, I was convinced it was Aaron.

Oh, such a shame.

I mean, the daughters were the ones who found Marisa.

All they wanted was a mother.

Instead, they found tragedy. - Daughters?

You never mentioned that Aaron had kids.

They didn't show up in my research.

- Well, my memory comes and goes,

but I do remember those girls.

They didn't get out much.

Not that I ever really saw them.

It's... he kept them on a very tight leash.

Oh, I remember, I found

a photograph of Aaron and his family

taken at a block party just a few months before Marisa died.

I thought it might help that... that you could use it.

[Shuddering breaths]

[Ominous music swelling]

- They knew Marisa. Cam was dating her.

They were... they were living together when she was murdered.

I mean, the girls found Marisa's body!

- So, they knew you'd been working on this case the entire time

and they didn't say anything. Why?

- My guess is that Cam wanted to protect the girls.

That he didn't wanna drag them back into the spotlight.

I dunno. I dunno. - Okay.

So, how does Valentine play into all of this then?

- I don't know. B, I...

[Cam clears throat] - I gotta find the truth.

I... hey, can you call me back in 30 minutes?

- Yeah, sure. - Okay.

[Call beeps off]

- You knew Marisa.

You were dating her when she was murdered! - Hey...

[Exasperated sigh]

- Everyone thought it was me... who killed her.

- Did you?

- No! I didn't!

How could you even... think that?

- I don't know what to think. [Sighs]

How was Valentine involved? Did you know her too?

- No! I-I-I didn't.

- You didn't what? - I don't know!

I have thought about who could have done this to Marisa, every day.

Every single day.

But Valentine...

it makes sense.

Why else would she have had some of her things in Marisa's house?

Please, I didn't wanna lose you.

[Sobbing]

Look, no one would leave us alone.

They-they-they treated us like... like criminals.

The girls especially.

We had to... [Sniffles]

We had to move, change our names,

hire a private investigator to... to wipe our records.

Lacey, it was horrible.

I couldn't watch the girls suffer anymore.

- You lied to me about everything.

- I didn't want to reopen the wounds.

I didn't... wanna...

...be exploited again.

By your show.

- No.

- I would never hurt anyone.

I mean, you know this.

Please tell me you know this.

- I think you should find somewhere else to sleep tonight.

[Sobbing] - Lacey...

- No. Get out.

I don't want you anywhere near me.

You stay away from the girls. [Cam sighs]

[Blows out breath]

[Hand rustles on sheets]

[Quick knock on door] - Hey.

Almost ready for school? - Almost.

[Footsteps clunk, approaching] - Where's Dad?

I didn't hear him come home last night.

- Uh...

Your dad is at work.

And I-I want you guys to know that he told me about everything.

- Everything about... about what?

- Marisa. [Suspenseful music]

Come here.

You girls have been through so much trauma.

You do not deserve the hand you've been dealt.

I mean, you're just kids.

I was 20 when my sister was taken from me,

and it took me years to come to terms with it.

I mean, I'm... I'm still coming to terms with it.

Just that... that shame and...

the way people look at you, you know?

It stays with you.

But I want you to know that I am here now

and nothing bad is gonna happen to you while I'm around, okay?

Nothing.

- No matter what?

- No matter what.

Okay, let's get you guys off to school.

Come on.

[Footsteps thump up stairs] [Exhales]

[Suspenseful music] [Box lid clatters]

[Frame rustles]

- Ugh.

[Envelope crinkles]

[Photo rasps on envelope]

[Sinister music]

[Music intensifies]

[Panicked breathing]

Oh, my God!

- Hey, it's Kira. Leave a message. [Voicemail beeps]

- Kira. Stay at school. I am coming to get you and your sister.

- Newspring High School. How can I help you?

- I need Kira and Maddie Tindle removed from class immediately.

- They're not here.

- What do you mean they're not there?

I dropped them off at school this morning.

- We received a call excusing them from class today.

- From who? - Their father.

[Sinister music swells]

[Tires rumble on pavement] [Phone call dials]

- Hey, it's B. Leave a message. [Voicemail beeps]

- B, Cam knew Marisa and Sarah.

That's what Valentine was trying to tell me.

He... he set her up and he... he killed her,

and now he has the girls at Marisa's old house.

[Cardoor clunks shut]

- B, I have to save them. [Call beeps off]

[Gripping music] [Footsteps crunching gently]

[Crickets chirring]

[Handle rattles] [Door creaks open]

[Door clicks shut]

[Footsteps thump, approaching]

[Breathing shallowly]

[Music intensifies]

- Open up, Cam! [Knocking continues]

Cam, open this door!

Hi, Cam. - Bianca.

- I'm looking for Lacey. - How-how did you find this house?

- It doesn't matter.

Where is she, Cam? - What? - Where is she?

Where is Lacey?! - I-I-I don't know.

I don't know. - Bianca!

[Thudding blow] [Body crashes to floor]

[Ominous music]

- Hmm.

Ow!

- Lacey?

- Cam?

- It nearly broke me...

losing Marisa and Sarah that way.

[Inhales and exhales deeply]

- I couldn't uh...

I couldn't bear to bring it up again.

I'm sorry.

I couldn't.

[Breathing shakily]

But I had to think about my girls.

It is my job as a father, to protect my children.

They cannot suffer because of what I've done.

After my wife died in the accident, I... - Accident?

But you said she died of cancer.

- Oh.

[Breathes shakily] Um...

yeah.

Uh...

it was a car accident.

And the girls were in the vehicle with her.

[Sobbing]

And I uh...

I nearly...

nearly lost everything I had...

[panting] ...in the blink of an eye.

I vowed to never let anything bad happen to them,

ever again.

[Breathing shakily]

I love you guys so much.

[Sniffles]

[Music intensifies] - I did it.

- No, Cam. - I killed Marisa.

I killed Sarah. - Dad?

- Ugh.

No, Cam, you didn't. - Yes, I did, Lacey.

Call the cops, Lacey, tell them where I am.

- I know you didn't kill them because they were pregnant.

[Music swells] - What?

- Sarah and Marisa

were in the early stages of pregnancy when they were murdered.

- B-but how could you know? - Their autopsy reports.

You wouldn't have known unless they told you.

[Necklace jingles] - But someone knew.

[Breathes shakily]

- It's Marisa's missing necklace.

- How did you get this?

- From there.

My missing bracelet is in there, too.

- How could you be so careless, Kira?

I said I would take the fall for you.

[Breathes shakily]

- You set Valentine up

and then you killed her because she was on to you.

You killed Sarah and Marisa because they were pregnant,

and you have been trying to kill me.

- I was trying to protect you, Kira.

[Breathes shakily]

- Kira?

[Stammering, sobbing] [Cam]: It's all over.

Everything's ruined.

Everything's ruined!

- Kira. Kira!

- Fine! I knew.

I found their pregnancy tests in the trash.

I couldn't let them do it.

I couldn't let them take our dad away.

- Kira. I get it. I do.

I know what it is like to have someone that you love ripped away from you,

and to have that gaping hole in your heart

that feels like it can never be filled. I get it.

Someone did that to me when they took my sister.

Don't do that now.

- I just wanted you gone!

Why couldn't you have just left?!

- Kira?

It's not true.

Please tell me it's not true.

- I'm sorry.

Maddie, I just wanted to protect you.

We were good.

Just the four of us.

We were a family.

You know, I actually really liked you at first.

But then you had to go and get pregnant.

You wanted to push me and Maddie out. - No.

- Take our dad for yourself, just like the others and their babies.

It's easy to push out the motherless kid

when you have a kid of your own.

You can't have him! You can't take him away from us!

- Kira, stop!!

No more! Look what you've done!

- Maddie... - No!

I am talking! Listen to me!

You need to stop.

You don't need to protect me anymore.

[Breathes shakily] - You're all I have left.

[Wrench clatters] - No! No!

No! [Grunts] [Lacey crashes, glass shatters]

[Panting]

- Just know that everything that's happened,

and everything that's about to happen... - No!

- ... is your fault!! [Cam crashes into Kira] - No!

Let go! No! - No, Kira.

- No! No!

- How could you do this to us? [Sobbing uncontrollably]

How could you do this to me? [Sobbing] [Kira]: No!

[All continue sobbing]

[Indistinct police radio chatter]

- Remind me to never...

save your life again. [Chuckles dryly]

- How are you doin'?

- I'm okay.

I guess.

How 'bout you? - Yeah... yeah, just great.

[Relieved chuckle]

- Ugh. [Sad, dramatic music]

- Take care of Maddie.

[Cam]: I was just trying to protect her from herself.

From everybody.

[Breathing shallowly]

I love you both.

- What are we gonna do now?

- Let's go home.

[Hopeful music]

- Hi, Lacey. Uh, this is Detective Campbell.

I'm calling you with some good news.

We've confirmed the DNA samples from your sister's body

with the man convicted of the crime.

The right person is in jail.

I hope this helps. [Call clicks off]

[Baby cooing]

- Hi!

Hi!

How are you, sweetie? Come here!

Oh, hi!

Yeah.

Should we go get some bottle?

Yeah? Come on.

Come on.

Hey, what do you think? [Door clicks closed] - Hey, Lacey.

- Hi! - Hi, Hannah Banana!

[Coos] Hello!

- How was school today? - So great!

I got an A on my AP English paper

and my guidance counselor says it's gonna look really good on my college application.

- Oh, that's amazing!

Hey, do you wanna celebrate tonight with some pizza? - Yes, please.

[Zipper whooshes] - Ooh!

And don't forget this weekend.

[Babbles] - Do we really have to go?

- They're still our family.

And one day your dad and sister are gonna get out

and they are gonna need our support.

- I don't think Kira's ever gonna get out.

[Babbles] - She's still your sister.

Even after everything.

[Babbling]

Yeah! [Coos]

What do you say? Oh!

[Laughs happily]
