00:00Lily.
00:00Ethan.
00:03What happened?
00:05Where are my parents?
00:09No.
00:10No.
00:11No, Ethan.
00:16I'm sorry for your loss, Lily.
00:18I know how difficult this must be.
00:20This can't be happening.
00:22We're investigating.
00:23We're here for you.
00:27Ethan, take care of her.
00:28She needs you now more than ever.
00:40No.
00:48This isn't real.
00:51This won't be happening.
00:53Why?
00:55I don't know, Lily.
00:56But we'll find out, I promise.
01:03I understand this is incredibly difficult for you, Lily.
01:07We'll get to the bottom of it.
01:12Oh, my God.
01:15Oh, my God.
01:16Lily, you just need time to process this, okay?
01:25Please just let me help you.
01:29I can't do this, Lily.
01:32I can't do this.
01:35I can't.
01:38Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:39Lily, Lily, Lily.
01:40Lily, Lily, Lily.
01:41I can't do this.
01:45No.
01:47I can't do this.
01:51You have to stay strong, okay?
01:55Your parents wouldn't want this.
01:57No.
01:59I need some.
02:00Oh, my God.
02:04Oh, my God.
02:06Oh, my God.
02:08Oh, my God.
02:18Is she okay?
02:20Not really.
02:22But the medication should help her get some rest.
02:26I've been working in this town for years, Ethan.
02:34I've seen a lot.
02:36But nothing like this.
02:39It's brutal.
02:42I'm not sure how I want to help her through this.
02:44We'll do everything we can, Ethan.
02:46But I wanted to talk to you about the case.
02:50We found a note suggesting suicide in the car.
02:56But it doesn't add up.
02:58This is murder.
03:03Who would want to do something like this?
03:07I've known that family since childhood, okay?
03:10They were good people.
03:11I wish I had answers, Ethan.
03:13But it seems like there's more to this than what meets the eye.
03:17A crime like this is unprecedented.
03:19We have to find the truth.
03:24Not just for Lily, but for the memory of her family.
03:28They deserve justice.
03:30I couldn't agree more.
03:32We'll keep you updated as we uncover more details.
03:37And Ethan, if you need anything, you are Lily.
03:41Don't hesitate to reach out.
03:45I know how tough this is.
03:47I'm here for you.
04:02Who could do this?
04:03Who could do this?
04:11I don't know.
04:12I don't know.
04:14I don't know.
04:21Lily.
04:26Sorry I woke you.
04:30It's fine.
04:32And...
04:32I haven't been able to sleep anyways.
04:35I just need someone to tell me this is a nightmare.
04:42I wish it was, Lily.
04:47Just for once?
04:50Tell me this isn't real.
04:54Lily, there's no easy way to take this, but they're gone.
04:58I'm sorry. I promised that I would never let a single tear fall from your eyes, but I failed.
05:16Lily, I promise you that I will find out who did this, and I'll make them pay.
05:28Ethan, we need to talk.
05:43What is it, detective?
05:45I've been looking into the circumstances surrounding the murder,
05:49and there's a possibility that this was a vengeance killing.
05:53And if that's the case, Lily might be at risk too.
05:58What do you mean?
06:00I know you love Lily.
06:03That's why I think it's safer for her if you stay with her until we resolve the case.
06:08Yeah.
06:10I'll do whatever it takes to keep Lily safe.
06:13We can't let anything happen to her.
06:14Look, Lily, we'll get to the bottom of this, okay?
06:30I'm not gonna let anything happen to you.
06:33No one's gonna hurt you.
06:35What do you mean by that?
06:37I'm sorry for not telling you sooner, but Detective Lawson mentioned that your life might be in danger too.
06:48What?
06:50She said that your parents' murders might be linked to some old family dispute.
06:57A family dispute?
07:00Ethan, my parents would have never been involved in something like that.
07:04They're good people.
07:05I know, Lily.
07:06That's what confuses me too.
07:08Oh, God.
07:10We're gonna have to work out who did this.
07:13We need to find out the truth, Ethan.
07:15We will get to the bottom of this, Lily.
07:18Okay, I know this is hard for you, but I'm gonna be by your side no matter what, okay?
07:23Thank you, Ethan.
07:34Hey, Lily.
07:35How are you holding up?
07:37It's hard, but I need to find a way to move on.
07:48My parents would have wanted me to.
07:50You're incredibly strong, Lily.
07:55Hey, I was thinking about the day that you went to med school.
07:59You mentioned something about a phone call?
08:04Oh, um, yeah.
08:06I got a call just before I was leaving.
08:09Um, I answered.
08:12It was silent.
08:14And then I heard Dad's voice.
08:16He was saying,
08:17Don't you dare touch Lily.
08:20So I tried to answer, but, um,
08:23it went silent.
08:25Crash.
08:28I couldn't think of anything else, so I came back here.
08:31Your dad said,
08:32Don't you dare touch Lily.
08:35Did you recognize the voice on the other side?
08:38Well, that's the thing.
08:40It was Dad's voice, but
08:42something sounded different.
08:44It was off.
08:45From the day I received the mysterious call,
08:51to the haunting night they were taken from me.
08:54Every moment etched in this diary will be a step forward to justice.
08:58Lily, are you sure you want to be doing this right now?
09:01It's already been so hard on you.
09:03I need to, Ethan.
09:05I need to find the truth.
09:07But what about med school?
09:10Nothing's more important than this right now.
09:12And I've requested a gap year.
09:17We need to locate their phones.
09:19Dad's phone call could be the key to everything.
09:23I remember his voice vividly.
09:25There was tension.
09:27But it was unlike him.
09:29Look, this is like chasing shadows.
09:32Okay, we don't even know if there's a connection between what happened on the phone and then what happened to your parents.
09:37I can't shake the feeling, though.
09:40It's like a puzzle.
09:42Every piece I put down, I'm closer to the truth.
09:45Okay, well, I know this can be hard, but then can you recognize any change in your parents' behavior?
09:52Did they have any frequent guests or anything like that?
09:55No.
09:56Everything was normal.
10:05Look at them.
10:07I had no idea.
10:11Hey.
10:14We...
10:16I know this is tough, but I'm gonna be by your side, okay?
10:20We're gonna get through this.
10:21No matter what.
10:39Lily, Ethan.
10:41What brings you here?
10:43We were wondering if you found my parents' phone at the crime scene.
10:46Take a seat.
10:50There's something you both need to know.
10:52What is it, Detective?
10:54We couldn't find your parents' phone at the crime scene.
10:59The killer might have taken them before we arrived, but...
11:03What?
11:05We found a suicide note.
11:07It's a twisted situation.
11:10My parents would have never committed suicide.
11:13They lived happy lives.
11:16That's why we've been analyzing it.
11:18And I have something to show you.
11:25Take a look at the handwriting.
11:29Detective, this isn't my parents' handwriting.
11:32We thought as much.
11:34It adds...
11:36another layer to the mystery.
11:38Well, if your parents didn't write it, then who wrote the note?
11:41That's what we're trying to figure out.
11:44The person responsible might be trying to divert attention.
11:47We have to find out who did this.
11:50We can't let them tarnish my parents' name.
11:52Be careful, Lily. I feel like the perpetrator wants you to find them.
11:58We'll be by your side.
12:00Whatever it takes.
12:02Don't worry. We'll get to the bottom of it.
12:03Now, let me get you home safely.
12:06Lily, Ethan, brace yourselves. The truth is stranger than what you might think.
12:20What is it, Detective?
12:22This town has secrets. Deep-rooted ones.
12:25I might not know all of them, but there's something odd about its history.
12:32You both need to be really careful.
12:35This investigation could lead you into dangerous territory.
12:39Mum and Dad spoke of a library of this town. A repository of secrets.
12:44A library? What kind of secrets are we talking about?
12:47Your parents weren't wrong. This town has a hidden history. One not everyone is privy to.
12:55I may not have all the details, but I can sense the weight of its past.
13:00We need to find this library. It might have the information we need.
13:05I might find my family's history.
13:07We will. We owe it to your parents' end of this town.
13:11Be careful. I'm allowing you to investigate because the squad has dismissed this as suicide.
13:18Don't worry, Detective.
13:20We will.
13:30Right, now, you gotta get some rest, okay?
13:34No. I can't sleep. Not until I find out who murdered my parents.
13:38Well, you're not going to solve it unless you are well rested.
13:42Okay, go on. Go get some sleep.
13:44Okay.
13:47Okay.
13:59You ready?
14:01Did you hear that?
14:03Hear what?
14:05I don't know. I just... I feel like someone's here, Ethan.
14:10What do you mean?
14:12I don't know. I just thought I heard something like footsteps.
14:17Lily, we're the only ones here, okay? No one even knows that we're onto this.
14:22Who's there?
14:24Lily, what is happening?
14:27Are you okay?
14:29I just feel like someone's here with us.
14:32Look, if you're not comfortable being here, you can come back to my place.
14:37No. No, Ethan. I just...
14:40I didn't sleep well last night. I think I'm just being paranoid.
14:44I just...
14:46Well, maybe you just need some rest and we can do this library thing another day.
14:50No, no. Um, we need to go now.
14:53Just...
14:55Okay, let's go.
15:08I can't believe it.
15:10Lily, we can't let this obstacle deter us, okay?
15:13It's got to be here somewhere. We just have to keep searching, you know?
15:16The main vigilant.
15:18Do you think what we're looking for is even here?
15:20You know, it's a little hard for me to believe.
15:24But I mean, there's got to be a clue somewhere, right?
15:27A hidden compartment. Just something that will lead us to the truth.
15:32Nothing.
15:35Nothing.
15:37It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
15:39Lily, these secrets were meant to be hidden, right?
15:43So all we have to do is look for the right string to pull on and to unravel the whole thing.
15:47Yeah.
15:52Do you...
15:54I can't shake this feeling that someone's watching.
15:58Do you know what I mean?
16:00Lily, we just need to find the book and then we can go home, okay?
16:05You're right.
16:07You're right.
16:08It's...
16:09It's...
16:16You're saying he's nervous.
16:23And nothing.
16:27I'm so...
16:28Careful, pretty lady.
16:29Path to enlightenment is often slippery.
16:34Names are only labels, but...
16:35You can call me Jake.
16:39Sorry.
16:41Don't mind my flirting.
16:43You from around here, Jake?
16:44No, I just moved here a few days ago, but...
16:47I do have an old connection with this town.
16:51Is there anything I can help you guys find?
16:53I've worked here for a little bit and I've read almost every romance book in here.
16:57They're great.
16:59Well...
17:01By the way, uh...
17:02You guys a couple?
17:04Oh, no. We're just friends.
17:08By the way, um...
17:10What should I call you?
17:11Oh, well, I'm Lily and this is Ethan.
17:14And actually, you might be able to help us.
17:16We're looking for this book that has all the secrets of this town.
17:19Have you heard of it?
17:21Does a book like that even exist?
17:24If it does, would it be safe in here in a library with no security?
17:29Well, I'm sure it exists.
17:31I've heard of it, so now it's just trying to find it.
17:35I mean...
17:37If you're sure it exists, I'll do everything I can to find it for you.
17:42Lily...
17:43We can't trust him, okay?
17:44We can't have anyone interfere with our investigation.
17:49Just so you know...
17:50I heard that...
17:57Seriously?
17:59I don't know you.
18:02You're gonna read this one.
18:03I can't believe we came up empty-handed again.
18:13Yeah.
18:15I thought Jake would have had some answers, but Red End, too.
18:18Yeah, look, maybe we just need to widen our search area.
18:22Ask some more people around town if they know anything.
18:25I mean, surely somebody has to.
18:27You're right.
18:28We can't just stick to the one source.
18:30We need to find information from different sources.
18:34Ethan...
18:37Do you ever get the feeling that someone's watching us?
18:40What do you mean?
18:43I don't know, just...
18:45Something...
18:46Someone...
18:47Lurking in the shadows.
18:49Got this eerie feeling, you know?
18:51Look, I think you might just be a bit stressed.
18:55Okay, the investigation's probably just taking its toll on us both.
18:59You're right.
19:01Stressed.
19:03I'm gonna be by your side, Lily.
19:13No matter what happens, okay?
19:14You'll be safe.
19:33Hey, it's Jake. We, um, met yesterday at the library. You remember me?
19:42Yeah. Look, I don't think that we established a connection that would warrant you coming
19:47here without notifying us first.
19:49I bought you some freshly baked cookies. My specialty.
19:53Wow. Thanks, Jake.
19:56Jake! Come on in.
19:58Thank you, Lily.
20:03Now, before you guys suspect me of following you, the manager at the library gave me your address.
20:12He felt bad seeing me read books all day and thought I should make some friends.
20:17That's a great idea. We need all the help we can get.
20:20These cookies are amazing.
20:22No one makes better cookies than me.
20:25Oh, uh, by the way, that book you wanted from the library, the manager wanted me to tell you it was stolen some time ago.
20:32We thought that was the case.
20:35So, you two are living together?
20:38Oh, no, no. We're just friends. Ethan has his own place.
20:43Well, friends are not. It's great that you have each other.
20:47Yeah. Great.
20:50Are these your parents?
20:56I want to help you find the killer. We can investigate together.
21:01Lily, we need to be careful about who we trust. We can't just bring in a stranger. It could complicate things.
21:07I appreciate your offer. We need all the help we can get.
21:10Thank you, Lily. I know this couldn't have been easy for you, but I promise to help you out however I can.
21:16Ethan, we need to talk.
21:24Yes?
21:25I don't think we should live together anymore. It sends off the wrong impression.
21:30But, but, Lily, I'm here to protect you, okay? I keep you safe.
21:33Protect me? Ethan, I'm not a child anymore. I don't need protection. I'm fine by myself.
21:40Okay, um, if that's what you want. But promise me you'll look after yourself.
21:50I promise. Okay. Now go. We'll continue tomorrow.
21:55Lily, why don't you have any other relatives? No grandparents, no aunts, no uncles. It's unusual.
22:15I've always wondered that too. But my parents never spoke about any other family.
22:20Maybe they had a good reason for that. Don't worry. I'm sure you'll find out soon enough.
22:27Hmm.
22:29Okay, everything.
22:34Oh snap!
22:39I'm afraid I'm not looking forward to all of the villains.
22:41It's awful.
22:51Ohhh.....
22:56Who are you?
23:08Why don't I know you?
23:26Why don't I know you're not going to be able to do that?
23:46Really?
23:47What's going on?
23:48Is everything okay?
23:56Lily, there's nothing here. It was probably just a bad dream. Everything's okay.
24:01It wasn't a dream, Jake. There's blood.
24:05I believe you. Everything will be alright. Just trust me.
24:20What's happening here?
24:22What does it look like? She's sleeping.
24:24Do you really think that I don't know what you're trying to do here?
24:27What am I trying to do?
24:29Look, if you so much as harm one hair on her head, you are dead.
24:33Whatever.
24:54Dear Lily, I thought you didn't sleep well last night, so I didn't want to wake you.
25:08Sorry I used your kitchen without permission, but I made you some delicious food.
25:12Don't forget to heat it up before eating. This is my number. Text me if you need anything.
25:24I'm going to find the truth.
25:49I'm going to find the truth.
26:19I'm going to find the truth.
26:28Hello? Is anyone there?
26:33She's getting goofy. Show yourself.
26:39Jake! What are you doing here?
26:56Uh, you know, just being a superhero, saving the day and all.
27:00A superhero, huh? I didn't even realize I needed a caped crusader.
27:04Every damsel in distress deserves a hero, even if I did forget to bring my cake.
27:09Why didn't you find me?
27:11Have you checked your phone? I sent you a thousand messages.
27:14Oh, no, I didn't. I should start looking at my phone more often.
27:19Don't worry about it. Now, before we dive into a million questions, can you do me a favor?
27:24Oh, what's the favor?
27:26Ask me how I'm doing. A little concern for your superhero, maybe?
27:31Poor superhero. How are you?
27:34Much better now that I'm with you. Being a superhero has its perks.
27:39Thanks for helping me.
27:41I could do anything for you, Lily.
27:44Hey, well, are you right to get up?
27:48I'll help you.
27:49Yeah. Cut. Doesn't seem too bad.
27:53Hey, Lily. Is everything okay?
28:01Yeah, if it wasn't for Jake, I don't think I would have made it back alive.
28:04Are you hurt anywhere?
28:06No, I'm not for Jake's hurt.
28:08I had to save you at all costs, because someone told me.
28:11If there was a scratch on you, I'd be dead by now.
28:15Why didn't you call me?
28:17Everything happened so fast. I'm sorry.
28:20Did you get a look at the guy's face?
28:23Um, no, I couldn't.
28:25No, even if we did see his face, it wouldn't make a difference.
28:28He was hired by someone else to intimidate Lily, not hurt her.
28:32Thank you, Jake.
28:34Don't thank me.
28:36Lily's my friend, too.
28:38I'll look out for her no matter what.
28:42All right, anyway,
28:44you should probably give me some attention now.
28:46Maybe stop the bleeding.
28:55Don't go finding any more opportunities to play superhero, right?
29:05Why didn't you call me, Lily?
29:07That's what I'm here for.
29:08I thought I could do it on my own.
29:12You should stay here, rest up.
29:16Lily?
29:17He's injured, Ethan.
29:19He should stay.
29:22Yes, Lily, he's injured, so he should stay here.
29:38Lily, we need to talk.
29:40Ethan, what's wrong?
29:43What's going on between you two?
29:51Well, come on, Lily.
29:52I thought we were all friends.
29:53We are just friends.
29:54Jake and I were just...
29:55Sharing a moment?
29:59Lily, what happened to us?
30:01I feel like I'm losing you.
30:06Lily, you can't just trust everyone around you.
30:09What, you think Jake murdered my parents?
30:12Is that what you're saying?
30:12No, no, no, I don't mean it like that.
30:16I just, I think you need to be a little bit more cautious.
30:18How do I know you didn't do it, hm?
30:20Lily, I'm your friend.
30:24I've known you since childhood.
30:27I don't know anything anymore.
30:28I'm not your enemy, Lily.
30:32Just by myself.
30:34Just, just go.
30:36Fine, Lily.
30:38You do what you have to do.
30:47Ethan, how's Lily doing?
30:50She's been acting strange.
30:54Rough time.
30:55Care to share more?
30:57So, Jake.
31:00Ever since he's come into our life, everything's just been so complicated.
31:03Jake?
31:04Who's Jake?
31:06It's complicated.
31:07I don't want to talk about him.
31:09Ethan, you need to be careful.
31:11Lily's emotional state can cloud her judgement.
31:14Who is this guy?
31:15A stranger spending time with Lily.
31:18I know.
31:18I have something important to tell you.
31:25I was going through old police records and I found an old first information report against Mr. Turner.
31:31His dad?
31:31Yes, a woman filed a complaint.
31:34But he was never jailed.
31:36I don't know why.
31:37Who filed the complaint?
31:39Why?
31:40The woman's name was redacted from the record.
31:42But it seems her husband died and she suspected Mr. Turner to be the perpetrator.
31:48It's a missing piece to the project.
31:51Maybe if we find this woman we'll be able to find out more.
31:54Does Lily know about this?
31:56No, and I think it's crucial she doesn't find out until we find out more information.
32:02Sure, I'll look after a detective.
32:07But we need to get to the bottom of this.
32:11Things are getting serious now, Ethan.
32:14Every detail of our conversation should stay with us and only us.
32:19And find out more about Jake, please.
32:26I'll see you next time.
32:32Lily, I've been thinking.
32:34Maybe I should go back to my place.
32:36I get the feeling Ethan doesn't want me here anymore.
32:39What? No, you should stay.
32:41You haven't even recovered yet.
32:43I appreciate it, but I don't want to cause any problems between you two.
32:48Ethan's just being protective.
32:50He's been acting a bit strange lately, but don't let that affect you.
32:54Please, stay.
32:56Only for you, Lily.
33:01You've been so supportive of me ever since I've met you.
33:04I care for you, Lily.
33:06You know, my parents passed away and I was all alone.
33:10It was just me and Ethan.
33:13But lately, he's been acting so weird.
33:16Weird how?
33:18I don't know, I can't put my finger on it.
33:20But I feel like he's hiding something from me.
33:23Lily, you don't have to face these things by yourself anymore.
33:27I'm here for you.
33:33Lily, I have something to tell you.
33:36I'm developing feelings for you.
33:47Lily, there's something I've never shared with anyone before.
33:52What is it, Jake?
33:54My childhood was really traumatic.
33:57I grew up an orphan.
34:00I had no idea.
34:01My parents died when I was really young.
34:05My father was murdered and my mother was so heartbroken.
34:11And she took her own life.
34:16I never got the justice they deserved.
34:19I had no idea you had such a tragic and painful childhood.
34:22I'm so sorry.
34:25I never thought I'd find someone who could understand my pain, Lily.
34:30I'm here for you.
34:32You're not alone.
34:34Thank you, Lily.
34:35Lily, you mean a lot to me.
34:40You and I, Lily, we both suffered through so much, but together,
34:47I know we can find the justice that's eluded us.
34:49Losing my parents in such a tragic way.
34:57It haunts me every day.
35:02I don't know how you went through it by yourself.
35:05But you, Lily, you understand that pain too.
35:10Your parents, this tragic mystery surrounding their deaths.
35:15It's like we're bound together by fate.
35:17It's uncanny how our stories align.
35:24But we'll find the justice that we deserve.
35:26I promise you.
35:28I was hoping you'd say that, Lily.
35:31Together, I know nothing will be able to stop us.
35:42I have this album.
35:43I recognize them, but I don't recognize anyone else in it.
35:52I've told you everything I know.
35:53Because, Lily, the truth is elusive, and I can't stand half-truths.
35:59If you want to solve this, you need to confront everything, even if it hurts.
36:03I thought we were working together. Why are you making this an interrogation?
36:07Because this is how we get to the truth, Lily.
36:10By pushing boundaries and facing uncomfortable realities.
36:15Maybe you're not as committed to this as I am.
36:17I am committed, but I won't be treated like this.
36:20We're meant to be a team.
36:21A team? Teams don't hide things from each other.
36:25Why are you acting like this, Jake?
36:29I'm just trying to get to the truth.
36:32Isn't that what you want, too?
36:33It's not just about the truth. It's how you get there.
36:40I'm sorry, Lily.
36:43I'm just doing this because I care about you.
36:46You know that.
36:48It's fine.
36:55Lily, there's something I need to tell you.
37:00What is it?
37:02I've been thinking a lot about our connection.
37:05I need you in every part of my life.
37:07Jake, you're hurting me.
37:09I'm sorry, Lily. It's just...
37:12I need you so much.
37:13Jake, please. Can you let go? Discuss this later?
37:17Lily, please. I can't live without you.
37:19Jake, I do love you, but you're moving too fast.
37:24I've shared my deepest, darkest secrets.
37:27I've opened up to you about stuff that I've never told anyone.
37:30Does that mean anything to you?
37:33Jake, I care about you, but I can't make any drastic decisions right now.
37:38I thought you understood.
37:41I thought we had something special.
37:43We do, but what we have is important.
37:47But we don't want to go rushing into anything.
37:49Let's take it step by step.
37:51Yeah. Please?
37:54I'm sorry. Just...
37:56It's fine. No.
37:59No. No, you're right.
38:03You're right.
38:06Let's wait a bit.
38:08Hey, Lily.
38:19It's been a while since we've had a catch-up.
38:21Yeah, things haven't been the same as what they used to be.
38:24Uh, are you still investigating?
38:28Yeah, Jake's been a great help. We've made some progress.
38:33Um, is everything okay? What happened to your wrist?
38:37Yeah, everything's fine. It's just an accident.
38:41Um, Jake's been taking care of me.
38:42Okay.
38:44Lily, are you sure everything's okay? I just, I don't want to see you get hurt.
38:48Uh, Ethan, Jake and I have been through so much together.
38:55And we've become close.
38:57And we like each other.
39:00Like each other?
39:02Lily, I mean, is it serious?
39:06Well, we're still figuring things out, but for your information, we've been talking about marriage.
39:14Marriage?
39:16I mean, you can't just rush into something like that.
39:20Ethan, you can't decide who I can and can't be with.
39:26Okay, I just...
39:29I don't want to see you make a mistake.
39:32Well, I won't.
39:36Why was Ethan here, Lily?
39:40We're just friends. What's the big deal?
39:41I don't want him coming over to our place anymore. He's trying to ruin our relationship.
39:45You're overreacting. He's just concerned.
39:47Concern? No. Lily, he's trying to ruin us. He's jealous of me and he hates us.
39:52Jake, just stop. You're making a mess.
39:53He's the one making a mess of everything. I can't stand him. It's either him or me.
39:58Jake! Just stop. Please. Let's get married. Let's get married.
40:06We're getting married?
40:07Yeah. Let's get married. Ethan will... He won't be in our way anymore. It'll be good.
40:16You really mean that, Lily?
40:18Yeah, we can start our life together.
40:22I never thought I'd get proposed to in the middle of a rage fit.
40:26Well, it's the only thing I thought would stop your mood, so...
40:33You sure know how to surprise me, Lily.
40:41Ethan, has Lily shared anything else with you about the case?
40:46Uh, she mentioned something about a phone call she received from her dad on the day that...
40:53That he said something like, don't you dare do anything to Lily.
41:00That's a significant detail. It implies a sense of forewarning, but it also raises other questions.
41:09Who would target Lily?
41:11I don't know. I just... I keep having her dad's words echo in my mind.
41:20We need to consider all possibilities.
41:23The woman who filed the complaint against Mr. Turner committed suicide.
41:29Maybe a relative is seeking vengeance.
41:32Or...
41:34There's another angle we're missing.
41:36Perhaps Lily's parents weren't the primary target.
41:42Lily might.
41:44I think Lily might be the actual target.
41:47The theory?
41:49If someone is after her, we need to know who they are and why.
41:53To save her, we need to understand connections, motives.
41:58We need to dig back through their history,
42:01work out if they had any family enemies or whether they were involved in something that could get them into trouble.
42:06Exactly. We need to uncover every single detail, no matter how small.
42:10Lily's safety depends on it.
42:15Do you think that Lily's parents might be involved in something that could put Lily in danger?
42:22It's a possibility, Ethan.
42:24That's why we need to explore every connection, every lead.
42:28We can't afford to overlook anything, if...
42:31She is in danger right now. We can't afford to waste time on things like that.
42:35Do everything we can, Ethan, but we need to be cautious.
42:38If there is someone out there targeting him, we don't want to tip them off.
42:43You're right.
42:45We need to continue to gather evidence discreetly.
42:54We need to talk.
42:59There's nothing left to say.
43:02But, Lily, please.
43:05We can't end things like this.
43:08Make it quick.
43:12Look around us, Lily.
43:15This isn't us.
43:18What happened?
43:18It's Jake, isn't it?
43:26Lily, I don't even know where I stand with you anymore.
43:29I...
43:30You can't keep avoiding the question, Lily.
43:32I deserve more than this.
43:35I'm marrying Jake and that's it.
43:38Okay?
43:40I...
43:40No.
43:42Don't contact me ever again.
43:48I don't know where I'm going.
43:58Sarah, Lily gave me this note that says,
44:01Go check Jake's place.
44:03I think she might be in trouble.
44:05Lily might be on to, sir.
44:07She's in danger, Sarah.
44:08I think that she contacted first.
44:10She gave you that note because she didn't want Jake to suspect anything.
44:13Let's not waste any time.
44:18It's a mess.
44:28This looks like a psychopath's lair.
44:32I think Lily could be in real danger.
44:35Let's search the place thoroughly.
44:37Lily's instincts might have brought her here for a reason.
44:48So, look at this.
44:56It's a picture of Lily's parents with a cross through it.
45:02And a picture of Lily circled.
45:10This is unsettling.
45:11It's a picture of Lily when she was young.
45:33Ethan?
45:33Do you recognize this?
45:38It's a picture of Lily when she was young, playing with a boy.
45:48Wait, Lily has this picture, which means that the boy must be Jake.
45:57You're saying Jake knew Lily since childhood?
45:59I think this all goes a lot deeper than what we first thought.
46:03If Jake is connected to Lily's past somehow,
46:07that means he's not telling us the truth about who he really is.
46:24Lily, I came to check on you.
46:27Are you holding up?
46:29I appreciate you coming, but you shouldn't stay too long.
46:35Lily, what's going on?
46:37You look real.
46:40It's Jake.
46:42He's not the person I thought he was.
46:45He's become obsessive.
46:47And I fear for your safety if you stay too long.
46:50Lily, we need to get you out of here.
46:54We can figure out a plan together.
46:56It's not safe, you're living with him.
46:59Did you find anything in his house?
47:02I don't want to say anything I'll regret later.
47:04Please, let's go.
47:05No, Sarah, I can't let you risk your life for me.
47:08I don't know what he's capable of.
47:10You need to leave.
47:11I'll give you this.
47:14It's an address.
47:16We can speak freely here.
47:20We need to plan this carefully.
47:28We'll find out a way to help you, Lily.
47:30You're not alone in this.
47:42How's Lily?
47:42Is she okay?
47:43No, Ethan, she's not okay.
47:45Jake's behavior has taken a dark turn and we need to act.
47:48Fast.
47:49We have to save her now, okay?
47:51Whatever it takes.
47:52Just save her.
47:58Tomorrow we're getting married, Lily.
48:01Our love is so strong.
48:03Nothing can come between us.
48:06Jake, you're moving too fast.
48:07We need to slow down.
48:09You don't think I don't see what you've done?
48:11Now you've been conspiring against me?
48:13You really think I wouldn't know that you've been talking to Ethan and Sarah about me?
48:18You'll never get away from me, Lily.
48:20Let's not have any secrets between us.
48:23Let's talk about this calmly.
48:24Calmly?
48:26You think I'm going to let you get away with everything you've done?
48:29You'll never escape me, Lily.
48:33Oh, just you wait, Lily.
48:34Tomorrow's going to be the best day of my life.
48:39I'm so excited.
48:47I didn't believe it, Sarah.
48:48Mr. Turner is not guilty.
48:51He was accused out of grief, but the tragedy doesn't end there.
48:55Done some digging?
48:56Turns out the two families are good friends.
49:00Mr. Turner tried to save the man who was hit by the car, but he died on the way to the hospital.
49:05The man's wife, struck with grief, accused him of murder and then later committed suicide.
49:12And their boy, their only child, was then sent to an orphanage.
49:16So the son's life took a dark turn after that.
49:20It only gets more disturbing from there.
49:23The son, raised in the aftermath of his family's demise, became a psychopath.
49:30He was sent to a mental hospital, which he escaped from one year ago.
49:36They're still looking for him.
49:37Silver, that boy from the orphanage, that's Jake.
49:45He's the one that we've been looking for from the beginning.
49:48Jake, who was right in front of us all this time.
49:54Right here in this town.
49:56And that's why he's got this obsession with Lily.
49:58It's some sort of twisted connection to his past.
50:01Lily's in grave danger, Sarah.
50:06I hope she's okay.
50:09Let's get her to the address she provided us, and make a plan with her.
50:20Meet, me at the abandoned warehouse.
50:31Lily usually takes time to reply.
50:37Why would she respond so quickly?
50:42It's Jake.
50:43He's using Lily's phone.
50:46We can't go to that location, Sarah.
50:48It's a trap.
50:49He must be planning something for us.
50:50Right.
50:52What were you three planning against me?
51:03Nothing.
51:06Doesn't matter.
51:07We're going to be married soon.
51:10Everything's going to be fine.
51:14Hey, maybe we should celebrate.
51:18Seeing as both of your companions are going to be dead soon.
51:20No.
51:22Jake, please.
51:22You don't have to do this.
51:23Please.
51:24Anyone who stands in our way will pay the price.
51:29I won't let anything come between us.
51:32Please don't hurt them.
51:33You don't have to hurt them.
51:36Deja vu.
51:38Where have I heard this before?
51:45You're begging for their lives the same way
51:49that your parents begged for your life.
51:58You killed my parents.
52:01Yeah, I did.
52:02Why?
52:04What did they do?
52:05Oh, don't worry, Lily.
52:08Tomorrow's our wedding day.
52:10And there's still so much you need to know because right now,
52:14you know nothing.
52:19I can't believe in living with my parents better.
52:24Did you seriously think you could get away, Lily?
52:30Even now, you're still trying to run away.
52:34You won't get away with this.
52:35I already have.
52:38Our destiny is a sealed, Lily.
52:41Nothing can stop this.
52:47We need to find Lily.
52:49Jake won't stop until he gets what he wants.
52:51You're right.
52:52Let's go to the lease place.
53:01Stay in the car.
53:02Keep it locked.
53:03If you see anything, call me.
53:05You're right.
53:06Let's go to the next podcast.
53:08We'll get to go.
53:09If I throw.
53:12Let's go to the next podcast,
53:15let's go to the next podcast.
53:28Yeah.
53:29Thanks.
53:31We'll find you next time.
53:31Police!
53:56They were just here.
53:58He's taken us somewhere else.
54:00She's in danger.
54:01Did she mention anywhere else she could have been?
54:04Anywhere else?
54:13It's almost time, Lily.
54:15Our eternal bond begins now.
54:17I want to be a part of your sick fantasy.
54:21We need to distract him.
54:23Give him a chance to escape.
54:25I'm with you.
54:26Guys, where's my invite?
54:35I thought we were all friends here.
54:36How the hell are you alive?
54:38Guess it's not my time yet, Jake.
54:40It looks like yours is about to run out.
54:42Take one more step and I'll kill her right now!
54:45I told you, if you so much as harm one hair on her head, you are a dead man.
54:50Let her go, Jake!
54:51What the hell?
54:53How are you two alive?
54:54Because we're not psychopaths.
54:56Like you.
55:04Ethan!
55:06You're right here, right?
55:07I'm fine.
55:08Ethan, it was him.
55:10He's the one who...
55:11I know.
55:11I know.
55:12I'm so sorry.
55:12It took us so long to save you.
55:13So, Jake, would you like to go to the police station or back to the mentals?
55:19Everything was going so smooth.
55:21Why'd you kill her parents, Jake?
55:23Our families were so close.
55:27Our friendship was supposed to turn into a relationship.
55:31And then her father killed my father and my mother.
55:35Oh, please.
55:35It was an accident.
55:36He didn't kill your father.
55:38My mother's wish of me marrying Lily was supposed to come true.
55:44And then I would kill her and myself.
55:47And we would all be happy in the afterlife.
55:50Well, I'm sorry, Jake.
55:52But I guess I ruined your plan.
55:53You destroyed my life!
55:54You destroyed it yourself!
56:02I don't know.
56:08Your plan was nothing short of insanity, Jake.
56:17Now you'll face the consequences.
56:20Get up!
56:25You're going to rot in a cell for the rest of your life.
56:31I trusted him.
56:34How could I have been so blind?
56:36It's okay.
56:38It's over now.
56:39And I'll make sure that he pays for his sins.
56:45You were brave to face him.
56:47I couldn't have done it without you or Ethan.
56:50Sarah's been great.
56:52And you know I'll always be by your side.
56:56We'll make sure he pays for what he's done here today.
57:00No one's going to hurt you again, Lily.
57:02Thank you, Ethan.
57:03I just want this nightmare to end.
57:06It's over now.
57:08But it might take some time for things to feel normal again.
57:12If you ever need anything, you know where to find me.
57:15Well, we're home now.
57:23It's all been settled.
57:25No one's gonna hurt you anymore.
57:28Well, we're home now, it's all been settled, no one's gonna hurt you anymore.
57:42I can't believe I didn't trust you in this, you should've known.
57:49Okay, well, I'm gonna leave.
57:59No, wait.
58:02Ethan, I want to start a new life.
58:06I'm so exhausted from all of this.
58:09I think that sounds like a great idea.
58:12A fresh start might be exactly what you need right now.
58:16I want to start a new life with you.
58:19I promised to be a better person and maybe you could even visit me at med school.
58:25And you know I'll be by your side, right?
58:29No matter what.
58:31Thank you, Ethan.
58:33I don't know what I'd do without you.
58:46Mr.
58:50I will try And if I'd never have one, I would try again that, right?
58:56Regardless of where you're supposed to be, you think, you're somebody.
