00:00Who's place is this, Gordon?

00:14You should eat.

00:16Is that even your real name, Gordon Murphy?

00:19Do you even work in construction?

00:22You haven't made any ransom demands, have you, or contacted anyone?

00:27Eat.

00:30Are you planning to kill me, Gordon?

00:37Or else you'll die of starvation, which will make things easier for me.

00:43The owner of the grocery store in Jefferson remembers a guy matching our description came in five days ago.

00:47Jefferson's about an hour northeast, so it fits geographically.

00:50Bought a ton of canned goods.

00:51Stocking up?

00:52Paid in cash. That's how she remembers them. Hundred dollar bills.

00:55She told him she didn't have enough change, he said keep it.

00:57Clearly not worried about money.

00:59We're in too big a rush for that to matter.

01:01We have people sweeping the area.

01:03Jefferson PD gave us a few bodies.

01:05License plate is out of state, but let's pull up all the abductions from the region.

01:10Anybody over the age of 16, last ten years.

01:12What are you thinking?

01:13If this is sexually motivated, the stockpiling of food could mean that he plans on holding your captain.

01:20What do you like to read?

01:31You said you loved libraries. Was that even true?

01:35I said I spent a lot of time in one.

01:38Well, library saved my life. Eighth grade, Robinson sisters, they were going to kill me.

01:46I had pissed them off somehow, I don't even remember when I needed a place to lay low somewhere.

01:53After school, at lunch. So, the library. I read my way through all three Bronte sisters.

02:01How long have you had it?

02:12Cancer.

02:16My mom, she had breast cancer. She ate a lot of the same foods.

02:20She had, um, the same chemo. Santa can stick on you for months.

02:26It's hard not to smell it cooped up in here.

02:31It's a big part of why I moved back.

02:33My mom, um, the good news is, the chemo worked. She's clear.

02:43How are you doing?

02:47Stage four.

02:50The doctors, they missed it because they couldn't be bothered.

02:54Which hospital?

02:56Northcott.

02:58And this is in?

02:59It's the Men's Penitentiary.

03:03Prison library.

03:05Yeah.

03:07But don't worry.

03:11I'll live a lot longer than you.

03:20Banff at the Colonel Connolly.

03:22I don't know.

03:24I realize.

03:25Franz Omoly was my teen man.

03:28I mean, it's a working guy.

03:31He doesn't get old now.

03:33I see if he's no one I need to.

03:35Yeah, well I have more I know.

03:37But don't worry about or the long is he wanted to beions.

03:40Yeah, of course!

03:42The other day he did not make it you.

03:43You can findresse hangers.
