"CARTER:" "It's regarding the Hanna Frey case, back in '91?" "Yes, ma'am, I remember it well." "What's your interest in the case, Detective...?" "Carter." "I may have a missing persons case in the Bronx that matches the M.O." "Young girl went missing from a public library, like Hanna." "One of my suspects used to live in Texas." "LANDRY:" "Really." "What's the suspect's name?" "Unfortunately, I'm not at liberty to share names." "Still a developing case." "Sheriff, I'd really just like to have a look at Hanna's case file."

" That's the last time anyone saw her?" "I had no idea there was something to worry about until I got a call from Sheriff Landry that night, saying Hanna never made it home." "Her parents still live here?" "Her mother passed a few years ago." "I still see her father every once in a while." "Thank you." "You don't believe Hanna could still be alive." "That was my wife's curse." "Refused to believe Hanna was gone." "Thought she was still out there, somewhere." " You have any idea what happened?" "MR. FREY:" "Of course I do." "Everyone in town knows what happened." "Cops interrogated that son of a bitch for over two days." "CARTER:" "Cody Grayson?" "Wasn't the first time he followed her home." "But they can't prove a thing without a body." "One night, me and my brother paid Cody a visit." "Did you get the truth?" "Smirking son of a bitch said he never touched her." "Said she probably ran to escape her jerk of a father." "What happened to Cody?" "Most nights I hear he's rotting his guts out at the Razorback." "Thank you." "Anyone ever reach out to you after Hanna was gone?" "Any correspondence or information that might help us?" "Nothing except some credit card junk mail a couple of times a year." "But they were in Hanna's name?" "Did she have a credit card or bank account?" "No." "She was still a minor." "You got one of those letters?" "Threw out another one a couple days ago." "Probably still in the trash." "FUSCO:" "You think it's odd that Alicia Corwin didn't have a key on her?" "CARTER:" "Maybe she left it at the hotel." "Maybe she left everything at the hotel." "That's not the only discrepancy between what's listed in evidence and what's here." "Ballistics report was corrupted too." "Someone really wants this to go away."

"[GRUNTING]" "Let's try that again." "What did you do with Hanna Frey?" "What do you want me to say, man?" "I cut her up, dumped her in the swamp?" "Ain't nothing you can do this town hasn't already done worse." "What happened to Hanna?" "Where is she?" "If I knew, maybe I'd still be able to see out of this eye." "Let me guess." "Cody Grayson." " Thought I'd buy him a round." " Heh." "Making friends, huh?" "Yeah." "You'll never get the truth out of anybody like that." " Already did." "He didn't do it." " I could've told you that." "Looks like you might be right about Hanna Frey." "Junk mail with her name on it." "Ran a credit check, discovered a bank account opened in her name back in '93." "Two years after she disappeared." "So either Hanna's communicating from beyond the grave, or...." "She's still alive." "[GROANING]" "Can you please make this stop?" "Another hour in that hood and he'll believe anything I say."

" If you tell me where the machine is." " What machine?" "The machine he built." "The machine Nathan Ingram sold you for one US dollar." " You know where it is." " I don't know anything." "I swear."

"A hundred grand is paid in withdrawn in cash over the next three weeks, until the account is closed." "A hundred grand?" "Where does a 16-year-old runaway get all that money?" "Jose Barilla, currently serving 17 life sentences for drug trafficking and murder." "Money was electronically transferred out of his account." "You did say this Root woman was good with computers." "Yes, I did." "But where does the account lead us?" "Right back here." "There was a co-signatory on the account." "Guy named Trent Russell." "Local address, right here in Bishop." "Name sounds familiar." "Yeah, he was on the witness list." "In the library that night she disappeared." "Still got that address?" "WOMAN:" "Who is it?" "Mrs. Russell?" "It's Detective Carter." "Is your husband at home?" " Mrs. Russell?" " Uh" " Yes?" "Trent Russell is your husband?" "Can we talk to him?" "Trent passed away almost 15 years ago." " Oh." "I'm so sorry." "Can we come in?" " Yeah." "Come in." "We were only married a few years." "We met at the library." "Trent was a member of the monthly book club." " I miss him so much." " How did he die?" "It was awful." "He was attacked." "BARB:" "Shot to death." "CARTER:" "They know who did it?" "Police said it looked like a drug killing." "Trash from over the border." "But never caught them." "Trent was a bank loan officer." "Is it possible he got caught up in money laundering?" "No." "He was a good man." "It was just a mistake." "How long did he know Hanna Frey?" " Hanna?" "REESE:" "Mm-hm." " He didn't." "CARTER:" "Then how do you explain this?" "He signed for a bank account in her name." "Two years after she disappeared." " This must be some kind of mistake." " Yeah." "Just like his murder." " You mind if we look around?" " Yes, I do." "You need to leave now." "REESE:" "Carter." "That 911 call." "The witness who saw Hanna get into the car."

"CARTER:" "Operator asks about the make of the car." "But the only thing the caller can remember is the license plate." "925 ESK." "REESE:" "925 EFK." " Caller got one digit wrong." " Or the operator did." "Are we saying this is the car?" "Trent Russell kidnapped Hanna Frey?" "Maybe." "Maybe Russell took her but she escaped." "She got her revenge." " How can you say that?" " Because of the account in Russell's name." "It's how Root works." "She set him up." "She stole 100 grand from a drug dealer." "When he found out it was missing the person he went after was Russell." "Russell denies it, but it's useless." "His name is on the account." "The only other name is of a girl who's been dead two years." "He has to be lying." "So the man who kidnapped Hanna gets gunned down in a parking lot." "And his victim is in the wind." "A hundred grand richer." "It's Root." "It has to be Root." " We need to search that house." " We need to call the sheriff." "We need to handle this the right way, John." "WEEKS:" "She'll come back soon." "You're reluctant to trust me." "You don't know me." "I do know who you are, Mr. Weeks." " You tried to hack the machine." " I certainly tried." "It was my job." "I had to test its limits, see if it was safe." "But in all of our crisis scenarios, we never envisioned this." "That someone would get to one of us." " She won't get to the machine through me." " But you must see that if you don't help me get free, we will lose the machine." " What can I do?" " The knife." "Try to push it to me." "[WEEKS GRUNTS]" "[GRUNTING]" "Stop!" "Stop it!" "Don't worry." "Don't worry." "I'm not gonna kill her." "At least, not until I've found what she knows." "So Ingram's little IT guy."
