"Not that I think there's any threat  just so you can stop worrying." "Thanks." "Yeah, we appreciate it." "Hi, everybody." "Last night, about 19:30..." "An adult, age 40," "Heather Louise Peterson of Waterbury, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder in the death of Justin Faysal." "Mr. Mayor, Dylan Bennett from the Waterbury Bulletin." "Is there anything connecting Heather Peterson to the murder of Verna McBride?" "That's our belief, yes." "Chief Vaughn will talk you through the particulars of our current investigation." "Chief?" "Thank you, Mr. Mayor." "Ladies and gentlemen, an autopsy was performed on Mr. Faysal yesterday." " The cause of death..." " Jana Singer, from Collingwood Expositor." "Why would Heather Peterson kill him?" "Do you have a motive?" "We have evidence from an eyewitness of a personal vendetta towards Mr. Faysal over a business transaction." "We also recovered a large quantity of rat poison at the Peterson residence." "What other evidence do you have connecting Heather to Verna's murder?" "That investigation is still ongoing." "Because I'm having a hard time figuring out why she would chop up an old woman into little pieces." "I want to assure the citizens of Waterbury and its many visitors that this was not random, and we do not expect any more violence." " Thank you very much." " Unbelievable." "You know she's right?" " What if Heather's... ?" " Stop, babe." "You gotta stop, okay?" "You're gonna drive yourself crazy." "If they're wrong, then, The Executioner's still out there." "Oh, wow." "You would not recognize Gail if you passed her on the street." "Big as a house." " Oh, a retired teacher, never married." " [Door opens]" "Well, guess she loved food too much to ever let a man in her life." "Wow." "Who's next?" "Oh, what about that boy that you had a crush on in Bio?" "SONJA:" "She can't hear you." "You don't know that." "Yes, I do." "The night of the accident, a piece of her skull sliced right down into her brain." "So she can't eat, can't talk, can't breathe on her own  and she certainly can't hear you." "But to answer your question, the boy she had a crush on was Harry Dahl." "Right." "Harry "Dull."" "God, she hated it when I called him that." "Harry's some kind of a computer guru in California, worth millions." "Anyway, I'm here to spruce Ada up." "I come by every other week." "Oh, Sonja, do you remember when" "Ada wanted to look like Twiggy, and she asked us to do her makeup?" "And she wanted those big false eyelashes?" "[Laughing] We kept gluing her eyelids shut." "Brenda, why are you here?" "Because Ada was my best friend." "A best friend that you never visit." "I live three hours away." " I'm talking about before you left." " Oh." "Okay, sure." "Fine, you're right." "I'm a terrible friend, guilty as charged." "What else do you want me to say?" "I'm here now." "I'm trying to make up for lost time, now." "Well, for who?" "For Ada?" "She has no idea that you're here." "And if it's for me, I'm not interested." " We used to be friends, Sonja." " Yep, we did." "But I don't have the capacity to help you clear your conscience."

"Why Justin?" "What'd he do?" "I can tell you what he didn't do." "He didn't blow someone's brains out with a hunting rifle." "Well, something must have put him on The Executioner's radar." "You can't think of anything?" " Robin?" " Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." "Before we built our house, there was a family that lived on that land in some nasty little shack that had no right being there." "Justin bought the land and  bulldozed everything." "ROBIN:" "I guess the family wound up...  ... squatting in some abandoned old house over on McCaul Street." "The house didn't have any heating or electricity, so they used this propane heater as a makeshift furnace." "They suffocated." "It's not like Justin put a gun to their head, he didn't..." "He just bought their land." "That's it, you know?" "He didn't deserve to die because of that." "No." "No, of course not." "I mean, he didn't..." "He didn't know." "Of course." "He didn't deserve to..." "You know, and after last night," "Sarah wants to get the hell out of here." "And, frankly, I don't blame her." "Okay, if I was in Sarah's shoes," "I'd be on the next flight to Australia or some remote island in..." "As far away from here as possible..." " Thank you." "Thank you." " ... so I get it." "But... you have to understand what you're giving up." "What do you mean?" "Have you seen this?" "The story you wrote about Heather after her arrest?" "It's been picked up by every major news agency in this country." "Right now, this story is sitting on page 5 or 6 of the nationals." "A couple strange murders in a town nobody's heard of." "It's interesting." "One more murder, and I promise you, we hit critical mass." "Boom." "It sounds like you want The Executioner to strike again." "Murders sell papers." "Serial killers make careers." "This kind of story..." "Opportunity..." "Only comes once in a journalist's career, if they're lucky." "But  Sarah comes first."

"I know you're upset." "I get it." "You want me to come with you, and I wanna get out of here, too, trust me." "But I signed a contract, okay?" "She could sue me." "So I don't really know what to do here." "You don't know?" "You could tell Alison to shove her two weeks up her ass." "Two weeks max."

"With the guilt and with hating myself." "I have paid my dues, and I refuse to go to jail for the rest of my life  for a mistake." "A mistake I made as a teenager." "A mistake?"

"That means you're under water to the tune of half a million on the house alone." "Your husband, against my advice, was robbing Peter to pay Paul." "[Clears throat] Um..." "How much did he owe?" "You owe over $2.8 million." "[Clears throat] Those were Justin's deals." "He..." "He said he'd take care of the business stuff, and I would, you know, focus on  selling homes." "It's what..." "It's what I did." "Well, as Justin's husband, you inherit all of his debts." "But the good news, and there is good news here, Robin, is that Justin left everything to you." "You can sell it, sell all of it, and I mean everything." "The house, the downtown properties, that car, the furniture..." " Our whole life together." " Sell all of that, and you may come close to breaking even." "[Exhales, clears throat]" "[Sniffles]" "I need to ask you one more question." "The family that died in that house over on McCaul, is there anything underhanded that Justin did?" "Please..." "I need to know." "Justin knew someone who knew someone on City Council who had the land rezoned." "The Vickers family couldn't afford the tax hike, so they had to sell at a great price, and..." "It wasn't illegal, Robin." "No." "No, it was just business." "[Birds chirping]" "[Crow cawing]" "Grandma?" "Grandma!" "[Branches snaps]" "Okay." "Come on, dickhead." "Come get me."

"Yeah, the punishment for envy is drowning." "And my grandmother was the most jealous, envious person I ever met." "You know, before she died, she confessed something to me." "That attack on..." "On Ada Pavlovik, years ago..." "It was her." "He who conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy." "Confession frees us, Sarah." "Once we let go of our secrets, their power over us disappears." "Your grandmother held onto that secret for years." "So take comfort knowing that she died, if not with a clear, then, at least a clearer conscience." "What is it?" "You could've died out there." "No." "You know, actually, I don't think I could've." "He could've killed me multiple times, but he never did." "I'm not a target." "I..." "I don't deserve to die." "I'm safe." "So you can help me catch him." " I'm not a cop, Sarah." " Better." "You're a murderer." "You know how all the colors in the rainbow, if you shine them together, they produce a pure white light?" "Yeah?" "Lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy..."
