[CHARLES GODFREY] Hey,
you know what I think we should do?
Why don't we just stay at home
and make pancakes?
Wasn't that your thing?
Breakfast for dinner?
No, it was dinner for breakfast.
And that was Gabe's thing.
It wasn't my thing.
I'm sorry I didn't tell you I was here.
I didn't know if you'd want me to.
What's goin' on here exactly?
I think I saw you
at the police station, right?
Yeah.
Becca's writing a book about me.
We're gonna go to New York.
The devil is working
inside Josephine Bell.
[JOSEPHINE BELL] And I waited
until she was right by the railing,
and then pushed her.
Reena's dead. They just found her body.
What time did you get
back here that night?
Around 11:45.
- [SIREN WAILING]
- [CAM] What about Josephine?
[DUSTY PACE] She got back
a little bit after me.
[TIRES SCREECH]

Why did that woman come in here,
into this house
and tell us that she was fine?
- That-That she walked away?
- Yes, she, uh
This is a complicated case.
We've been dealing with a lot
of misinformation, rumors.
[CRYING]
Mr. Virk, I'm sorry
to have to ask you this
but I'll need you to come down to
the morgue and identify the body.

[REPORTER] [ON TV] One
that turned out to be true
was the location of the girl's body.
This afternoon, just a short distance
from the Craigflower and Admirals,
officers in the helicopter
spotted a body in the water.
Dive teams recovered at
around 2:30 this afternoon.
Their investigation has
lead them to eight minors
between the ages of 14 and 16
they believe are responsible
for her death.

I told everyone to stop,
so how the fuck did she end up dead?
Ask Jo.
[HITS TABLE]
I didn't kill her.
What?
What are you talkin' about?
You said all that shit at the Gorge.
What shit?
'Kay, I exaggerated a little.
[WHISPERS] So what?
I didn't think she was actually dead.
[SOFTLY] Why are you tellin'
everybody that you did it?
What the fuck were you gonna do if
Reena came walkin' up in this party?
I don't know.
Fucking laugh about it?
[FRIENDS GROAN]
[DUSTY] [QUIETLY] Oh, my God.
You know that bitch probably
killed herself to make me look bad.
Come on, Jo.
[MUFFLED PARTY CHATTER]
We don't know who we can trust.
So, don't fucking talk to anyone.
For now, we just
go back out there and act cool.
Got it?
Let's go.

[ENGINE CUTS, PARKING BRAKE CREAKS]
What's goin' on?
Josephine killed her.
[KEYS RATTLE, DOOR UNLOCKS]
Who told you that?
[REBECCA GODFREY] She did. I just
left her at Connor Fields's house.
Yeah, well, she's lying to you.
What are you talking about?
You know Seven Oaks's
curfew's midnight now?
- [POURING DRINK]
- She signed in. There's no way
- she would've made it home in time.
- How do you know that?
[SIGHS]
[CAM] She has an alibi.
Reena was alive at 11:47.
We have it on video.
I just made that drive.
I was goin', like,
150 fucking kilometers an hour,
blowing through reds,
I couldn't make it.
There's no way Josephine would've
made it back to Seven Oaks in time.
- It's impossible.
- What the fuck?
I don't understand why,
why she'd lie to me about this.
Oh, what, are you two,
like, best friends now?
You know this is
an active homicide, right?
Yes, I know. And I'm trying to help you.
[SCOFFS]
Help me do what, exactly? My job?
- You hate cops.
- [REBECCA] Yeah, well,
I like one cop.
Hey, Becca?
I need you to listen to me now, okay?
I don't want your help.
I want you to stay the fuck out of this.
You can't just tell me what to do, Cam.
No, actually I can if you're
interfering with my investigation.
You can't if I'm a journalist.
[SCOFFS, MUTTERS]
What are you saying
to me right now exactly?
- You're here writing a book.
- Yeah.
[CAM] So, why don't you go
back to New York to finish it?
Because I can't finish it in New York.
- Why?
- Because this is what I'm writing about.
[WEAK LAUGH] Why are
you doing this to me?
You're the one who wanted
the fuck outta my fuckin' life.
It was so much more complicated
than that and you know that
[CAM] Do you realize how insane
it is to reinsert yourself like this?
- Reinserting myself?!
- Becca! Becca, I'm not,
- I'm not doing this right now, okay?
- Why?
Because a girl is dead!
Okay? I just watched them pull
her body out of the water!
And you don't think about
how that might affect me,
watching a fuckin' kid's body
get pulled outta the water?
Why would I fucking think
about how this affects you?

[SAMARA BAILEY] Hey, last Friday,
you were there, right?
You saw that girl getting beaten up?
I-It was only for a minute.
We were just hanging out.
And, like, well, all of a sudden,
Jo, Kelly, a bunch of girls,
they just jumped her.
And then?
We ran away up the stairs.
Dimitri stopped to look.
I saw that Reena girl wiping her face.
I
I think it might've been tears,
but it also might've been blood, so.
[SIGHS] A-And Warren left with you?
Yeah. Yeah, yeah. We all, we all left.
[NERVOUS CHUCKLE] We had no
clue what the fight was about.
We didn't even, [HUSHED] we
didn't even know who Reena was.
Did Warren
do anything?
[OMINOUS TONE PLAYING]
[JOSEPHINE] So,
did you finish writing your book?
[SOFT LAUGH] It's gonna take
a little bit longer than that.
- [OPENS CAN]
- But you're, like,
still gonna put everything
in it that I told you?
Mm, I'm gonna need a way to get, like,
an introduction to Gotti
once we get to New York.
I mean, once he finds out
what I did to Reena
I'm gonna be made.
[GIGGLES]
Is that why you told me you killed her?
What do you mean?
I'm I mean,
you don't have to pretend with me.
It was my idea to kill her.
Okay.
Let's just go to New York,
and you can drop me off wherever,
and we don't have to have,
like, a relationship
Jo, I'm not Look, I'm
[SIGHS]
I know what it feels like to be angry
and to be hurt and to not
know what to do with that.
And I'm here if you wanna talk.
I don't know what you heard
but Reena's only dead 'cause of me.
Okay, so you must know
who actually killed her.
I'm not a rat.
Look, I don't have to use your name,
but if-if you don't tell me
what you know, there's no book.
Okay? I can't, I can't write a book
filled with lies, Jo.
I'll tell you
if you promise to take me to New York.
I can't do that.

[EXAMINER] We have found numerous
particles of debris in the hair.
Leaves, twigs, numerous pebbles as well
throughout the nasal passage
So, clearly, we have
discoloration throughout the hand.
Rigor mortis has begun to set in.
[ECHOING] There is obvious
signs of debris under the nails.
Contusions going through
the back of the skull,
throughout the ear lobe.
[CLOTH RUSTLING]
Her official cause of death is drowning,
but Reena withstood enough
injuries from her beating
that she likely would've
died from those alone.
- Jeez.
- May I?
Yeah.
[CLOCK TICKING]
- Is that a cigarette burn?
- [EXAMINER] Consistent with that, yes.
The severity of the attack would
have made walking impossible.
She wouldn't have been able to stand.
I mean, these are injuries
consistent with car crash victims.
That means she must've sustained
the majority of these injuries
after the attack under the bridge.
After she walked away.
Meaning a second assault.
Was there any indication
of sexual trauma?
No. No signs.
- Hmm.
- [SCOTT BENTLAND] What?
[SIGHS] I'm just thinking
it's just odd, ya know,
that the mom comes
down here to ID the body.
I mean, what kind of man
lets his wife do that?
Do a little digging on the dad.
- [SCOTT] Yeah. Yeah, I can do that.
- Dad, come on.
Well, you said
that she called home, right?
So, he goes to pick her up,
they get into it, it escalates.
Things like this, Cam,
they're usually done by a family member.
Whoever did this didn't
see her as a human being,
much less love her.
They branded her with a bindi.
You think Manjit would do that?
[SIGHS]
I don't know.
Let's find out, okay?

Well, I was just at Seven Oaks!
[SUMAN] Look,
we couldn't find you all night.
Think about how that made us feel.
My friends can stay out
all night and no one cares.
But that's not a good thing, Reena.
- At least you have parents who care.
- 'Kay, well, what about my privacy?
There should be nothing you
should ever have to hide from us.
I don't want everyone looking
at me while I'm changing!
- [SUMAN] You can use the bathroom!
- If I can't even have my own room,
then why would I even wanna live here?
I know that my girl is
still in there somewhere.

choose our own, you know?
[REENA] I mean, who would you pick?
[DUSTY] Mm
Will Smith. He's hot.
Okay, but then he'd be your dad.
- Oh, no, no, no!
- Ew! You're so You're disgusting.
- I didn't mean it like that. [LAUGHS]
- You're gross.
Well, who would you pick then?
- Huh?
- Hm
ooh, probably Leonardo DiCaprio.
Well, then he'd be your dad too.
Okay, but, wait, what if he adopted me,
- and then we wouldn't be related?

Do you guys have anything left over?
Um, I'm willin' to do dishes

yeah, kind of.
Hey, why don't you just order
whatever you want and I'll get it?
No, that, that's fine.
You don't have to do that.

- "Carefully floated."
The gesture, like the phrase,
was kind and
poetic.
Maybe the only kindness and poetry
shown to the murdered girl.
[REPORTER 1] At this time,
no suspect has been arrested,
and details about Reena's
death remain unknown.
I heard she jumped, so.
[TEENAGER] I heard some girl
cheated on her boyfriend,
and the boyfriend's brother got mad.
[REPORTER 2] Now,
I spoke to the family earlier today
and I'm told that Reena's parents
will not be attending the vigil.
Just for context for people at home,
what kinda kid was Reena?
Was she a gang type or
Officers, any updates
to the investigation?
Any persons of interest
that you're looking at?
No comment.
Come on. Let's go. There's nothing here.
I'm Rebecca.
Raj.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Thank you.
My family went through something similar,
and you're very brave for being here.
I didn't know what else to do.
- Quite the turnout.
- Yeah.
It looks like Reena's dad's not here.
Neither of her parents are.

Hey, um, maybe we owe
each other a talk, yeah?
Yeah.
Wanna get a drink?

No colorful paper and choirs

the wrong questions!
You're not trying to ask
who actually murdered her!
Okay, you're-you're talkin'
to these kids like they're innocent!
[REPORTER] They are all
showing such concern.
[RAJ MASIHAJJAR] These kids
don't give a shit about Reena.
They don't give a shit about my family!

Ya know, about leaving suddenly
and losing touch.
We didn't lose touch, Rebecca.
You fell off the face of the Earth.

give anything up for me.
I didn't give anything up.
Sorry.

Uniform really is off-putting

things they're not gonna tell you.
Yeah, I noticed.
You and Raj seemed pretty chummy.
Sounds like you're jealous.
What, of your source?
You know, believe it or not,
I did have the decency
not to interrogate him
at his niece's memorial.
But you got his number.
I did.
Yeah, the guy won't talk to us.
Doesn't trust cops.

You have to prove yourself first.
[REBECCA] Do you guys
have any other gins?
[BARTENDER] We got Seagram's
and you're drinking it.
Okay. Well, then I guess
I'll have another one of these.

If I drink enough,
I won't taste the difference.
Too good for Seagram's now, huh?
I remember when you drank anything
anybody abandoned on these tables.
[SNIFFLES] I found
this photo in my stuff.
[CAM] Oh, Gabe.
Yeah, I kinda remember this day.
It's so weird being back here.
The whole island feels haunted to me.
I know we haven't had
a chance to talk properly,
but I wanted you to know I'm sorry.
Ya know, about leaving suddenly
and losing touch.
We didn't lose touch, Rebecca.
You fell off the face of the Earth.
Yeah, well, I was a kid, and I was
going through a lot when Gabe died
and you shouldn't have had
to take care of me or
give anything up for me.
I didn't give anything up.
Sorry.
[SOFT MUSIC CONTINUES]
Well, you look cool as a civilian.
Yeah.
Uniform really is off-putting
to people, huh?
- [REBECCA] Such prejudice.
- [LAUGHS]
That's why people will tell me
things they're not gonna tell you.
Yeah, I noticed.
You and Raj seemed pretty chummy.
Sounds like you're jealous.
What, of your source?
You know, believe it or not,
I did have the decency
not to interrogate him
at his niece's memorial.
But you got his number.
I did.
Yeah, the guy won't talk to us.
Doesn't trust cops.
Well
maybe I could be useful to you there.
Oh, I'll keep that in mind.
Is this still the only place
people dance around here?
Yep. [LAUGHS]

Mm. Birthdays and holidays.
That's how they're gonna get you.
Oh.
Is that what brings you
back to Victoria?
Kind of.
But I'm also writing a book
that requires me to be here.
- [RAJ] Writing a book?
- Mm-hm.
- [RAJ] What's it about?
- Mm
I guess the youth in Victoria,
or young girls in Victoria.
Hm.
Actually
a lotta the girls I'm speaking to,
um, knew Reena.
Uh-huh.
Okay, so, th-that's what this is.
I-I guess I'm trying to figure out
whether or not I should include her.
You know, I thought
maybe I could give people
the opportunity to know who she was.
Huh.
And what do you expect me to tell you?
I was hoping you could
tell me about this.
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
And where did you get this?
From a friend.
[RAJ] Mm-hm.
The press are gonna go through everything
and they're gonna dig all this up,
and they're gonna paint your family

I know because I've been through it.

I can get some truth out there.
