THE REMAINS OF 40,000 PEOPLE HAVE NOT BEEN IDENTIFIED WHEN POLICE INVESTIGATIONS REACH A DEAD END GROUPS OF CIVILIAN VOLUNTEERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY WORK TO NO NAME THR FORGOTTEN WHAT IF YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR FAMILY? WOULD YOU CHANGE THINGS? CHANGE THEM NOT ME I LOVE MY FAMILY I THINK THAT'S THE HARDEST PART KNOWING I CAN'T START A FAMILY OF MY OWN That, and knowing i may never get home again.
**************************** tHE FORGOTTEN S01E02 ʱ¼äÖ᣺ÂóÂó I'd consider it a personal favor if you didn't get shot today.
I'll see what i can do, alex.
Said you got a file for me? What's the big emergency? We're moving out.
Whole squad just picked up a double.
Two business-Types carjacked and shot.
In broad daylight? We got press, crowds, victim's family at the scene.
- Another day in chicago.
That case you're holding won't be much easier.
Jane doe, found six weeks ago.
We workeup what we could, but we're stuck.
- No problem.
We just have a lot going on, But if you need us, we'll back your volunteers up like always.
What? Nothing.
I just wish you were coming with us.
You were always good under pressure.
I miss it, too.
But this is what i do now.
(Whispers) yeah.
Sorry i'm late.
I told my boss i had a doctor's appointment.
Oh, it's all right.
We haven't started yet.
Hey, candace.
How's work? - It's awesome.
I love the insurance business.
Seriously? - No.
I'm rockin' the whole corporate drone thing right now.
But, uh, i'm workin' on it.
Okay, everybody.
Walter? Step away from the snacks.
We got a new case-- Jane doe found six weeks ago downwn in an alley.
We don't have a lot to work with.
We never have a lot to work with.
- That's true, but we make it work.
She's white, approximate age 18 to 33.
- Any hits from the databases? None.
D.
N.
A.
And fingerprints turned up nothing, But that just means she had no criminal record.
Cause of death? - Strangulation, But the exact day and time are listed as inconclusive.
- Why? That's a good question.
I'm gonna meet With the mical examiner today and find out.
- What is that? Oh.
That's, uh, just my cheese puffs.
Okay.
Physal evidence-- The body was found in a box, And not just any box.
This one has an unusual shape.
It's 4 feet long.
It's, uh, got a tiered effect.
There's a bottom and an upper step.
Well, candace and i can check that out.
We'll post an alert on the network.
Sounds good, lindsey.
Walter, you and i are gonna go to the upton hotel.
The M.
E.
Found a valet ticket in the victim's back pocket.
Okay.
So here's my theory.
The upton isn't just popular with the corporate crowd.
The cops also know it as a base for certain escorts.
Hookers? Hookers.
Police couldn't make a connection, But i'm gonna check with some old sources, See if any of their girls have gone missing.
- Maybe she wasn't a hooker.
Maybe she was killed by someone she knew.
- Maybe someone she knew was a criminal.
Maybe she's part of a conspiracy, And they killed her before she could blow the whistle.
- I think i just saw that movie.
Tyler, how close are we to having a face to work with? I got the autopsy photos here.
It's a lot of decomp, but i'm on it.
All right, everyone.
Let's do this.
We already talked to the police.
I know, and we appreciate that.
We're just wondering If there might be something you might have missed.
Well, i can't trace it.
Blue tickets are for registered guests.
Those numbers we keep.
White tickets are visitors, people going to the bar.
- What about the car? If she had the ticket, you must have the car.
- But we don't.
Cops said whoever murdered her probably came back for the car.
- How's that possible? It wouldn't be hard.
I keep the keys here And the cars in the back.
If someone knew the one they wanted, They could swipe it pretty easy.
- Well, there's gotta be something, right? Sorry.
Based on this ticket, all i can tell you is She was here six or seven weeks ago.
Six or seven weeks ago.
Let's check with the M.
E.
Maybe they can narrodown the time frame.
All right, you go.
You know what? Think i'm going to, uh, scope the place out a little bit.
That's the beauty the network.
One alert and we get input from thousands of volunteers.
So far, we have 300 tips on the box, And those just came in from the midwest alert.
Yeah.
A mover from ohio thinks it looks like a box They use to transport convertible sofas, And a plumber from detroit thinks it's used for copper pipes.
Of course.
Copper pipes.
'Cause, you know, The last time i sent copper pipes, I used a box exactly like that one.
Hang on.
A guy in a garage band in omaha sent this photo.
Check it out.
It's identical.
- It's a box designed for a professional keyboard.
It's got two rows of keys.
That's why the box has two levels.
- Can we trace who bought it? I don't know.
The brand number and the serial number are here in the middle.
But on our box? They're cut away.
Well, the killer must have done that.
We gotta find another way to track it.
Are you the manager? Um, i'm the manager.
Hi.
Can i help you? - Walter bailey, hey.
Um, i'm investigating the death of a jane doe-- Well, not really the death-- The murder-- Um, and i was hoping-- - I don't understand.
Okay.
Uh, i notice you have A surveillance camera out front, and, uh, we believe That our jane actually came-- - No, i mean, i don't understand.
You appear to work for the phone company.
Y--No--Yeah, but i'm working with a network that's investigating the case.
- A phone company network? No, we actually work with the police.
- The police? Fine.
I'm sure you understand we need to protect the privacy of our guests.
- Yeah, sure.
Noyeah.
Yeah, so perhaps you have an official subpoena? Uh, no, i don't.
Uh, might you possibly have a photo or sketch of the victim? Yes.
We got a guy working on that, So i can get you one of those, yeah.
I see, yeah.
And does he also work for the phone company, Or does he help nasa drive the space shuttle? - Whoa, hey, you don't have to get snippy.
Snippy? (Chuckles) i'm talking to a telephone repairman who wants me to give him security footage.
Hey, i told you we're working with the police here.
Sir, i-I really think that you should leave.
- A girl who came to this hotel, A girl who stood in this lobby is dead, so you will help me.
Easy.
Just All right.
It doesn't have to be like this.
Your jane doe was found near a steam grate in the alley.
That kind of heat makes the decomposition much more severe.
Her body was found six weeks ago, But i'm guessing she died a few days before that.
I've been working on a theory that our girl was an escort.
I mean, how many times have we seen pros dumped like this? An escort? Yeah, i don't think so.
Come on, claire.
You haven't seen me in a long time.
You don't need to shoot down my theories so quickly.
- You know, we missed you around here.
Word is you had a little bit of a meltdown.
I, uh, had a few meltdown moments, But i'm trying to keep it together nowadays.
Yeah.
I just can't imagine someone you love disappearing Your daughter.
The work helps.
Right.
Okay, so just so we're clear, this was not a screwup.
Our autopsy was perfect.
- Understood.
Sometimes bodies aren't everything.
Bodies get moved.
There's skin slippage.
- Claire, i get it.
U did not screw up.
My point is, in the transfer from the scene, Sometimes small objects or evidence get left behind in the transport bag.
Something got left behind? - When you called, i triple-Checked the bag.
It was hidden inside some residual tissue.
Now anything's possible, but How many hookers do you know who are engaged? The day i got engaged, There was so much i wanted to say to him, But i don't remember saying any of it.
All i remember is how happy i was.
Wonder how long she was engaged.
Do you think she set a wedding date? What i want to know is, where is this girl's fianc? I mean, he has to know that his future wife is missing.
Maybe she ran.
Maybe she was afraid to get married, And she just took off.
Runaway bride.
See? Underneath that edgy exterior lies the heart Of a true romantic.
It happens.
I mean, people freak out.
I mean, what if her fianc? Loves her, And what if he doesn't even know that she's dead? - And what if he killed her? I'm sorry, hon.
I want to believe.
I really do, But in my world, That fianc?Is capable of a lot more than love.
I think this is her.
Beautiful girl.
- I gotta go back to the upton.
They got a surveillance camera.
Now that we know what her face looks like, maybe we can find her on those tapes.
Why can't the cops check that out? No face, no specific date she was there.
Even if they had a photo, it would take hundreds of hours Going through all that footage.
- I'd do it.
Well, right now we need to work this photo.
Let's start on the illinois missing persons and then move out from there.
What's up with the ring? I gave it to russell to hat analyzed.
I'm headed there now.
Listen, i don't care what they say.
You are doing a hell of a job.
- Also i'm checking the engagement announcements For the local papers going back a year or so.
They run photos of the couples.
Maybe we'll recognize her.
I could do that.
No, it's all right.
I already started.
Uh, you know what? I gotta go.
So What's wrong? Nothing.
I have a report due at work.
I completely forgot.
So i'll--I'll be back.
Helen vicks.
- Hi.
Are you alex donovan? - You look surprised.
Oh, i've--I've worked a few forgotten cases as a volunteer, But i never put a face tthe name.
I didn't think you'd be so-- - Late? Am i late? Sorry.
You're not late.
I was gonna say cute.
Sorry.
Brutal honesty.
It's a new thing for me.
I'm trying it out.
Uh, well, thank you.
Um, so you got the diamond? Yes, the pice sent it over this morning.
What do you know about tracking diamonds? Uh, not much, but if we're gonna be brutally honest, I can track the only diamond i've ever bought in my life-- My ex-Wife sold it to buy a used car.
Yeah.
Well, a lot's changed since 9/11.
Under the p.
A.
T.
R.
I.
O.
T.
Act, Gemstones are financial instruments.
We need to know they're not funding terrorists.
Right.
So we require dealers to record all movements.
How do you record them? - Well, some dealers inscribe a kind of serial number.
It's microscopic.
When we grade the stone for quality, we just laser it on.
Your stone had a serial number.
- Great.
So you can track it.
Yes, but i don't think you're gonna like what we found.
The stone was sent in for grading by a small jewelry store in baltimore.
And they sold it to a customer? Yes, but apparently they weren't selling enough to stay in business.
The store you want went bankrupt six months ago, So even if they kept a record of the sale, It won't be easy to find now.
(Lindsey) i didn't know you were engaged.
I'm not.
This says you were, eight months ago, Right before you joined the network.
- Okay, look, i left before because i knew That you would find this, and i dn't want everyone else to know about it.
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to upset you.
I'm--I'm not upset.
I just it ended badly.
Well, most people-- - Lindsey, it wasn't like most people.
I backed out at the very last minute-- Like, the day of.
Yeah.
I told him that morning.
I found myself at the finish line, And i just i couldn't.
You didn't love him? I don't know.
I guess i'm still working that out.
I just But you know, it-- It doesn't even matter anyway, Because michael won't even talk to me.
It haunts me--Not the decision, but the way that i treated him.
Listen, I'm the worst at closure.
But maybe now that some time has passed, The two of you should talk.
We know the diamond was sold to a small store in baltimore.
Which doesn't tell us much.
The buyer could be from anywhere.
- Maybe.
I'm trying to track down the store owner, But we should also check missing persons reports in maryland.
- No luck yet on the cardboard box.
We found 17 stores in chicago that sell that keyboard.
And they've all sold at least a dozen over the last year.
That means detective russell needs, like, 200 subpoenas.
That is a nice ring--Not just the stone, but the setting.
I don't think that's something that you buy In a store ready-Made.
- So it's custom.
Okay, so maybe our girl isn't somebody who buys off the rack.
The dress.
If she had a custom ring made, Then she probably also had a dress made.
And we could track that.
Those dresses are made to fit By exact measurements, like 20 different specs.
We could check with the major designers.
They have retail stores across the country.
Maybe one of them was making a dress that matches our doe.
- I was just about to say that, alex.
You know what this means, right? We're about to fit a corpse for a wedding dress.
(Alex) i know.
You never get used to it, But it does get easier.
(Alex) wrist is about Okay.
No, i understand.
Thank you for your time.
How's it going? We got a list from the top designers.
Combined, they're making 16 dresses that match our doe's measurements.
Yes, hello, my name is lindsey drake.
I'm called from a group called the forgotten network.
I'm wondering if i could ask you a few questions.
Patrick dent.
Mr.
Dent, my name is alex donovan.
I got your name from the boutique Where your fiancée was having her wedding dress made.
Allison? Who is this? I'm with a group called the forgotten network.
We're calling because we couldn't reach her.
Uh, yes.
She's--She's been missing for almost two months.
(Whispers) hey! (Normal voice) um, i'm sorry to have to make this call, but Oh, my god.
Uh, you--You found her? We're not sure if it's her, but, yes, we did find someone.
(Lowers voice) i think we found her.
She's from new york.
HER NAME IS ALISON He flew in this morning.
He looks devastated.
He also looks like a prime suspect.
(Clears throat) sorry to keep you waiting.
- Mr.
Dent-- I-I need to see allison.
- I completely understand.
The medical examiner is setting that up.
Can i ask, how long were you and allison together? Almost three years.
Uh, we met at the office.
Uh, we were both lawyers at the same firm in manhattan.
She worked in family law? - With kids.
Custody issues mostly.
You know, that's how it started.
I thought she was working.
- What do you mean? Eight weeks ago she told me that she was being sent to boston On--On a new case, just for a few days.
And at first, uh, she--She called me every night.
But then, uh, she just she stopped calling.
I got worried.
Finally, i-I went to her floor, And i-I talked to her division chief, And he told me that she was never sent to boston.
She took a week's vacation.
So she lied to you? - I don't know why.
I mean, yeah, yeah, she was nervous Because of the wedding maybe.
Uh, maybe she just needed Some time on her own, and she didn't know how to tell me that.
- Did you call the police? Of course.
We filed missing persons reports In new york and in boston.
For the last two months, We have done everything possible.
Mr.
Dent, can you think of any reason Why allison would be found in chicago? No.
I-I know--I know chicago.
I'm--I'm from chicago.
You know, i haven't been back here in a few years.
Those are Allison's parents.
Have you talked to them? No.
No, not in a few weeks.
Why is that? They wouldn't say, But they think i killed their daughter.
I thought we could do this with you here But it's too hard.
Henry, don't do this.
I loved her as much as you did.
I'm sorry.
I think it's best if you leave.
Welcome to the upton.
You look like you could use some help.
You know what? I could, um, and so could she.
I'm walter bailey.
This is allison james.
Allison was murdered a couple months ago, And i think she came to this hotel.
Yes, i remember the police were asking questions.
- Yeah.
Look, i'm not the police.
Honestly, i work for the phone company, But i'm a volunteer for the forgotten network.
We're just regular people who do good work, And we actually help people when people like you help us.
- What is it that you need? There's a security camera out front.
If allison came to this hotel, she's on that video.
- You want our security footage.
Lend it to me.
48 hours.
Allison was 31.
She was about to get married, And then someone sangled her and dumped her in an alley.
I could get in a lot of trouble.
It's just the one camera, i promise.
From the front, from six to seven weeks ago.
Nobody will even notice that footage is gone.
Really.
Yeah.
It's gonna take me a minute to find it.
Really? That's great.
I mean, thank you! Thank you.
(Lowered voice) smart money would say he killed her.
(Lowered voice) - i agree.
It's almost always someone close to the victim, And strangulation's an intimate crime.
But what do we have? - She took a week off.
Lindsey checked with the firm.
The request came from her computer at work, But if he had her password, he could have made the request After he killed her.
- So he kills her And then makes it look like she went on vacation? - Yeah, maybe, but the firm said that he took a few days off The week allison left.
- He never mentioned that.
His boss said that he needed some time to think.
- About what? Well, everything he told us.
She was acting nervous.
He thought she was having second thoughts About the wedding.
He was upset.
Sounds possible.
Of course, it's also possible he killed her.
Yeah, but how did her body end up in chicago? We'll hold him at the precinct until we find out more About what we're dealing with.
- Okay.
We spoke with detective russell this morning.
She told us it was your group that identified allison.
We just nted to thank you.
Last couple months, we were in new york and boston Looking for our daughter.
We tried everything-- Police reports, cell phone records, I mean, they ran her credit cards I'm so sorry to have to ask you this, But of all the people in the forgotten network, I'm the one who knows firsthand How a loved one can surprise you.
Why is that? My husband was gregory drake.
You mean the one from the news? Yes.
Now i never knew what he was.
So i have to ask you about patrick.
Do you think there was any way he could have hurt your daughter? We believe it's possible.
We don't want to believe it, But he loved allison so much.
She seemed nervous about the wedding.
The thought of losing her-- It--It would have been more than he could handle.
- Did she say anything to you-- Anything about something happening to her? Never.
Allison and i shared everything.
But with patrick, she was so protective.
She wanted us to love him like she did.
If this patrick guy is guilty, we gotta work fast.
He's had six weeks to cover his tracks.
- We can look into his life.
No, russell and i will handle that.
I want you guys to look into allison's life.
She was a custody lawyer.
- Find out all of her current cases.
Maybe there was an angry father or lawyer with a motive to kill her.
I'm on it.
Candace, you've got a very disarming personality.
Why don't you talk to some of her friends? - And what am i looking for? Anything.
She was getting married.
Maybe one of 'em was jealous.
- You got it.
Alex, i just read the missing persons report from the N.
Y.
P.
D.
The tech in new york made an easy mistake.
When he ran the victim's credit card, He searched for james allison, not allison james.
- Tell me you got a hit.
Allison james bought a plane ticket to chicago a week before she was found, And she hired a car to pick her up at the airport.
This is it.
This is where the car took allison from the airport.
Excuse me.
Uh, chicago police.
Do you know this woman? Hi.
I'm the owner here.
You're looking for allison? You know her? - Yeah, she's patrick's fiancÉE.
What's this about? Uh, patrick-- Yo dent? Patrick is my son.
Is everything all right? Allison came here a few months ago.
Do you know why? Of course.
She came to see me.
You said that allison came to chicago to see you.
What does that mean? - Does patrick know she's dead? Yes.
He didn't tell you this? Patrick and i don't speak.
We haven't for almost two years.
That's why allison was here-- To try to change that.
- Change it how? By fixing our differences, by convincing us To start talking again.
She said my son wasn't the same since we lost touch.
She said that he would want us at their wedding.
So patrick had no idea that she was here? No.
Patrick would never have let her come.
- And why is that? Two years ago, i divorced my wife--My first wife.
The divorce was-- Well, it was messy For many reasons, But mostly because i quickly fell in love With someone else-- My wife now--Charlotte.
- I take it patrick didn't approve? Approve? He never gave her a chance.
Every time i turned around, he was telling me How manipulative and cold she was.
He was being protective of his mother.
It was more than that.
He was being unfair.
And then his mother got sick.
When was that? Just over a year ago-- Cancer.
I'm sorry.
It was very quick.
I mean, one minute she was here, and within a few months I didn't handle it very well.
I couldn't bring myself to go see her.
Patrick thought that charlotte was against me being there.
And you told all of this to allison? Yes.
I told her i loved my son, But i thought that she should go back home.
If patrick wouldn't accept charlotte, We couldn't be a family again.
If he's a liar, he's certainly had a lot of practice.
I agree.
Pretty convincing.
It's an amazing thing about family.
The most important relationships Can be so tenuous.
I knew how much it hurt patrick to lose his father.
He acted like he was okay, but he wasn't.
I knew it wouldn't be easy to fix, But i had to try.
Uh, gotta get back to my desk.
What's the plan? Allison james comes all the way to chicago To reunite this family.
You really think she took "no" For an answer and went home? - I doubit.
So do i.
Chances are, she spoke with charlotte.
Lindsey and i will check that out.
- Well, let me know.
I'll do what i can from the precinct.
You're really gonna do it? Walter, that's 140 hours of footage there.
Lindsey, look at me.
To you, this might be crazy.
But to me, hanging out and watching a video? It's no biggie.
In fact, it's one of my superpowers.
My father? Allison knew i was upset that we weren't talking, But, i mean, i never thought she would-- Did allison know how you felt about charlotte? Of course.
I always told allison the truth.
I wouldn't accept charlotte-- That what he said? (Scoffs) you know, he still doesn't get it.
She didn't want to be accepted.
She didn't want me anywhere near my father.
She changed him.
- What? Changed him how? He doesn't think for himself.
He cut me off because she told him to.
She refuses to have family holidays Because she can't compete with the memory of my mom.
She ordered him, and i don't care what he says.
She forbid him to go see my mother In the hospital when she was dying.
I know.
It sounds petty.
I sound angry.
I'm not angry.
I'm worried.
Why? Because she's a bad person, And she has him, And i lost him.
(Lindsey) you have a lovely house, charlotte.
Thank you.
It's changed a little bit since i met robert.
Maybe it's got a little more southern charm.
Are you, uh, originally from the south? Yes.
Mm.
South carolina.
- Nice.
I almost stayed.
My father has a class action firm, But i didn't take to the law.
- Allison was a lawyer.
And you said that she came here to see you.
Is that right? Yes.
We had lunch downtown.
She was hoping to get robert and patrick talking again, And she wanted my help, you know, woman to woman.
What about you? Did you like her? Oh, of course.
She was perfectly sweet.
I'm sure everyone liked allison.
But i don't think she appreciated the dynamics Of what she was asking.
Meaning? Patrick and i didn't connect.
He's convinced i'm an awful person.
Why would he think that? Well, why wouldn't he? I protected robert, And i stopped him from taking advantage of his father.
Patrick didn't take law school loans, and robert paid.
And what he got in return was an entitled son Who still resented his father For ending things with his mother.
That's a lot to take on as a new wife in the picture.
It was.
I'm not patrick's mother.
I know that.
But it was wrong of him To make me feel less than her at every turn.
If i cooked something at the holidays, It wasn't the same.
If i changed something In this house, it dishonored her memory.
Oh, so sorry.
Excuse me.
Hey, i'm still at the house.
Did you find something? Maybe.
We checked with the hotel Where allison stayed for her trip.
She never came back for her stuff, so they boxed it.
- And? She left a legal pad with the name "ed" And a local number.
- Did you run the number? It's coming in now.
Meet me at the federal building in 20 minutes.
I'm in trouble.
I knew it.
I'm a prosecutor.
I'm--I'm a federal prosecutor.
I should know better than to just-- Mr.
Warren, let's try this again.
Do you know allison james? Yes.
We went to law schootogether.
She's a friend, and sometimes i help her out.
Help her out how? - At work, when she needs help with a case, Like maybe a rap sheet or a phone number for a witness.
You use federal resources to help your friends? Not friends.
Just allison.
What exactly did allison need help with? This.
When allison was in chicago, She had lunch with a woman named charlotte dent.
This is the glass that charlotte used during lunch.
- She stole it? Yes.
She asked me to have it printed.
- Why would she do that? Because allison didn't trust her.
It has to do with her fianc?Patrick.
- We know about the family history.
Then you know why allisonwas alread It didn't help that she caught Charlotte lying about her childhood.
- What lie? They were talking about broken families.
Charlotte said her own parents were divorced.
She was only 8, but she remembers the judge Asking her which parent she wanted to live with.
- Was that a problem? Judges don't ask children under 10 for a preference.
(Alex) - so did you run the prints? Of course.
I sent a copy of the result to allison's hotel.
And i'll tell you this-- Charlotte dent is not who she claims to be.
Her real name's not charlotte dent.
She was born rebecca hill.
- And she's not a southern belle from south carolina With a class action lawyer daddy.
- Not exactly.
She grew up in foster care in michigan, And she's a high school dropout.
- We've got everything here-- Other names she used, Two out-Of-State priors for writing bad checks.
- To me, we got all the warning signs That we're dealing with a pro, and this guarantees it.
It's a marriage certificate from indiana.
It says that a rebecca hill married paul grant Four years ago, and they never got a divorce.
Charlotte dent is still married.
Yeah.
Which mes her marriage to robert dent isn't legal.
Maybe that's her scam-- She marries paul grant, Takes all his money or whatever it is she's after, And now she's on to robert dent.
I think i found grant.
I used the address from the marriage license.
- Hmm.
He doesn't live far.
We should try to find him.
Height be one of her victims.
- I'll go, 'Cause talking to people whose spouses have lied to 'em-- It's one of my superpowers.
All right, lindsey's on grant.
Russell's bringing in charlotte for a little sit-Down.
We need to keep our focus on allison.
'Cause it's my guess that she discovered all this, Then she went to warn robert dent.
That's where i need to head next.
Charlotte is fine.
Are you sure? Because i can call you rebecca Or sus or elizabeth, if you prefer-- All names you've used before.
What is this about? It's about allison james.
It's about a young woman who came to you for help And ended up dead.
- I was so sorry to hear about allison, really.
I think we can drop the act now, charlotte.
You're not a southern belle from south carolina.
Your father wasn't a lawyer.
- My father was.
You never knew your biological father.
You grew up in foster care.
It's all there, charlotte, Including that fact that you're still legally married To a man named paul grant-- Your last victim.
Do you think i killed allison? Allison found out who you were.
You couldn't let her tell robert dent the truth.
Well, here's some truth for you, honey.
It's not a crime to change your name Or to inve a story about how you grew up That helps you to fit in with new people.
And as for my former marriage, well, i'm sure that's just A clerical error that we can have cleared right up.
These are real? You confirmed all of this? We did.
It's possible she does this professionally.
She takes what she wants and then moves on.
Listen, mr.
Dent, We only discovered this because allison did.
She's the one who uncovered the truth.
Now i just need to figure out what she did with it.
- What do you mean? She must have come to see you.
- No.
Are you sure? Maybe she left a message somewhere.
I don't think so.
Diane, can you come in, please? Diane, patrick's fiancÉE allison-- Was she here in the office? - You met with her.
No, no, no.
Not the first time.
Did she ever come back? Of course.
She came back a few days later She wanted to see you, buu were out with a client.
What did she say? - Just that she had some papers you needed to see right away.
Why didn't you tell me this? I don't understand.
You knew.
You were gone for the day, so i brought the papers To your house.
I left them with charlotte.
- I had no idea.
But you did.
Charlotte called.
She said you saw the papers And that i should call allison and set up a meeting For the two of you.
- A meeting where? At the upton hotel.
Yes! Candace! You did it.
That's allison.
She's alone.
Well, that's just her entering Fast-Forward, see if she leaves with anyone.
Wait.
Stop.
Pause it.
That's charlotte dent.
What is shdoing there? Who the hell is that? That's paul grant.
We saw his picture online.
That's charlotte's first husband.
- He doesn't look like one of her victims.
Are you sure? - I'm sure.
Charlotte and paulrant went to the upton.
Allison went in, but there's no footage of any of them coming out.
They set her up.
They lured her there, Then found a way to get her out and kill her.
They took her out another way.
- Well, there must be a door with no camera on it.
Oh, my god.
- Lindsey-- She's meeting with grant.
She's probably there now.
Paul grant? - YES Okay, listen, i can't reach lindsey on her cell phone.
Call detective russell.
Have her meet me at grant's house And tell her to bring backup.
I can't believe how many pictures we took.
Rebecca and i--We weren't together that long.
- How long was it? It was about a year.
A few months after we met, Rebecca said she wanted to get married.
I knew that was fast, but i loved her.
And you never got divorced? No.
After she left, I guess i didn't want to believe she was gone.
Mr.
Grant, did you-- Please, call me paul.
Paul.
The truth is, Rebecca may not be who you think she is.
What does that mean? The police think that she may have done this before, That conning men is her profession.
I'll--I'll lay these out on the table for you.
Oh, of course.
Thank you.
Oh, i'm so sorry.
The glass ju slipped out of my hand.
- It's fine.
It's fine.
Hang on.
- I thank you.
We're leaving now.
I'm close.
I'm almost there.
We have two units in the area.
We should be right behind you.
I, uh, i see you have a new keyboard.
Do you play? Just started, actually.
It was a gift.
How did you know it was a new keyboard? You know what? I just realized.
I'm so sorry.
I have to go.
Maybe we could do this another time.
What's the problem? No problem.
I just No! It's true what they say.
You can't choose your family.
But i learned that when you choose a husband or wife, You're also choosing their family.
All the love and the hate And the history that made them who they are Becomes part of your life now.
I just wanted to know the truth.
I wanted to help the man i loved.
To me, family was everything.
I wanted patrick to know that feeling, To have that support around him.
I went to chicago to change things, To find some way for patrick And his father to heal the past.
And in the end, I'd like to think i did that.
I'm back now-- Back with the people who love me Back because a different kind of family Cared enough to bring me home.
My name is allison james.
