Ma'am, are you OK?
Oh, my God, you must be freezing.
- Here.
- Oh, no.
Thank you, angel. My skin is on fire.
I can't cool down.
Yeah.
OK.
I'm not prying.
But can I help you get
to a clinic or a meeting?
I've been there.
Oh, so you were here,
and now you're there.
You're all dolled up with
that pretty necklace, right?
That must be nice, angel.
There is a shelter on Division.
They're good people.
So just think about getting
out of the cold, OK?
Little angel's scared of me.
- Sorry, sorry.
- Oh, I'm sorry.
No, you're fine.
Well, the park at night,
that's no place for a woman alone.
Thank you. I'm actually not alone.
I'm waiting for my boyfriend.
No, your boyfriend's
not there, Erin Bell.
He's right here!

♪
What's wrong with the teacher?
I thought you really liked her.
Nothing. She's great.
I'm just easing back into dating.
That's not true. What happened?
She, uh, corrected my grammar.
- What?
- Twice.
- Oh, my God.
- It might have been thrice.
I can't wait to tell
Eva and Scola about this.
- Maggie.
- Yeah, Sean. What's up?
- You got a second?
- For NYPD? Yeah.
It's about your sister, Erin.
OK.
You're an agent,
so it got flagged with me.
A missing persons call
came in at 7:15 this morning
from Erin's roommate.
How does she know she's missing
and not out partying,
phone died kind of thing?
Roommate just said Erin
never came home last night.
Precinct in the neighborhood
was going to send out
a detective, get a full report.
But I thought, uh, you know
I saw Erin's file.
Yeah, no. She's no stranger to trouble.
I didn't want to blindside you.
That's why I came up
to do this face-to-face.
Thanks, Sean. I appreciate it.
Can you text me Erin's current address?
- Yeah, sure thing.
- Thanks.
Let Isobel know
I have a personal matter?
I will call her from the car.
I'm coming with you.
[SIGHS] Straight to voicemail again.
Ian ran her number.
Her phone's off. We can't track it.
My parents still haven't heard from her.
You think she fell off the wagon?
No, Mom said she's clean.
Yeah, but she's still
dodging your calls.
Well, can you blame her?
I accused her of relapsing,
and I was wrong.
It's been two years, Maggie.
She has a long history
of letting you down
when all you've ever wanted
was to make sure she was OK.
Listen, I said some pretty awful things.
This one's on me.
It just sucks because I've tried
to apologize so many times.
She wants nothing to do with me.
[ENGINE TURNS OVER]
I already gave the cops my statement.
I know.
I need to hear it for myself.
Where'd you meet?
Erin and I met through NA.
I heard it all.
OK. So you know her history.
Was Erin using again?
Why is that your first question?
Because that affects
where I look for her.
And I need to find her.
Is she clean?
Yeah, Erin's been good.
She just got her three-year chip
and a promotion at work.
She started as an assistant.
And now she's managing
a new marketing campaign.
Girl is killing it.
Good.
When's the last time you saw Erin?
Last night, 7:30.
She had just been talking
nonstop to this guy
she met on Instagram
a couple months ago.
She was heading out to meet him
for the first time.
- She was really excited.
- A couple of months.
Isn't that a little long
for the talking stage?
You gotta earn her trust.
But once she warms up
She'll jump in with both feet.
What was this guy's name?
It's Marty, no last name.
She was supposed to text me
after he got there.
- But she never did.
- Mm.
Do you have any idea where
they were supposed to meet?
Dunno.
But she would have checked in
if she wasn't coming home.
We always do.
I'm really worried.
Something's wrong.
I agree.
Tell me everything you know
about this guy.
All right, folks. Listen up.
We got to work a 115 for one of our own.
Maggie's sister, Erin Bell,
is currently unaccounted for.
So we're going to take that
missing persons case from NYPD.
Now, according to her roommate,
Erin was last seen on her way
to an in-person meet with
an online paramour named Marty.
And nobody has heard from her since.
So I want to know every detail
about this meet-cute.
Yeah, we don't have Erin's phone.
But we are into her Instagram account.
I am pulling up her DMs with Marty now.
Yeah, OK.
Elise, you want to run facial rec?
- Yep.
- OK.
These last messages confirm
that date with Marty.
They agreed to meet
at Domino Park at 8:00 PM.
OK, we got a time and place.
You want to check for pole cams?
- Copy.
- All right.
- How are we doing with that ID?
- Yeah,
full name is Martin Camerino.
Got out of prison three months ago.
His rap sheet makes "War
and Peace" look like a haiku
grand theft auto, armed robbery,
aggravated assault against his ex-wife.
And he was accused
of stalking a woman in 2014.
Wasn't enough evidence to make it stick.
Call me judgmental,
but this guy doesn't seem
like a real catch.
He didn't lead with that.
A week after he got released,
Marty made a comment
on one of Erin's posts about sobriety.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He is a fellow addict.
And it looks like
he's using that as an angle.
But nothing in his history suggests
Camerino has addiction issues.
No?
But he heavily implied he did.
They exchanged a few more.
Then Marty slides into Erin's DMs.
They click, fast.
So Marty studied Erin online,
says what he has to to establish a bond
and get her to lower her defenses.
These are the DMs?
Yeah, he definitely got her to open up.
Pressed her about recovery,
her dating life, her family.
And Erin
said some pretty rough stuff
about Maggie.
I don't know if I should
be reading this.
No, it's fine.
We're not prying or judging.
We're just looking for Erin.
Were we able to get confirmation
that she and Marty actually met
up in the park like planned?
Well, we got pole cam footage.
Here's Erin entering
Domino Park at 7:58 PM.
OK. Any hits on Marty?
No, no, Domino only has cameras
on the south side of the park.
He didn't enter there.
And Erin didn't leave
the way she came in.
Right, so no way to know if
she left of her own volition.
All right, I think it's time
we had a little chat
with Martin Camerino.
♪
Where were you last night, Marty?
You accusing me of something?
I'm asking you where you were.
I guess I'm asking,
what does that matter?
Erin Bell.
Where is she?
Who?
Not the day to play dumb with me.
What did you want with her?
Is it about drugs?
I'm telling you, I don't know who
or what you're talking about.
All right. You need to stop lying to us.
We have all of your messages with her.
You guys have been talking for months.
And last someone saw her, she was headed
to Brooklyn to meet you.
So where is she?
What messages?
No, you got the wrong guy.
So that's not you?
[TENSE MUSIC]
No way.
Is that no, they stole my face.
This is some AI crap.
No, that is not AI.
Our techs can tell the difference.
You want to clear your name?
Why don't you tell us
where that photo was taken?
♪
OK, yeah.
Those ugly-ass drapes, this is
the halfway house in Bed-Stuy
I was at right out of prison.
Place was full of psychos.
One of them must have
taken this picture.
I'm not buying that.
Your name, your photo,
and your halfway house?
Just admit it.
You lured Erin Bell
to Domino Park last night
No, I was nowhere near Brooklyn.
Then where were you?
- It doesn't matter.
- It matters!
Erin Bell is my sister,
and she is missing.
Believe me when I say
I will rip your life apart.
♪
OK.
Damn it.
I was in Chelsea.
- Doing what?
- Boosting a car, OK?
Red Audi.
It's down at the shop I'm working at.
So hit me with that.
But I promise,
I got nothing to do with your sister.
Newest Audi models' built-in cameras
have continuous recording.
We pulled the footage
from the car in Marty's shop.
It confirms he was acquiring
the Audi from Chelsea
when Erin disappeared.
Well, what about his phone?
It doesn't match the burner connected
to the Instagram account
Erin was communicating with.
OK. So someone cat-fished Erin.
Who had access to Marty's photo
from the halfway house?
I'm working on a script here
that I hope will help narrow it down.
So Instagram crops profile pics
to fit their specs.
However, the app stores
the full root image
that you upload in a compressed format.
So you're hoping the original
file will paint a fuller picture.
That's the idea.
And thanks to a subpoena,
we now have that root file.
Decompressing it.
You see that?
- Yeah, the reflection.
- Yeah.
It could be the photographer.
Can we get an ID off that?
I just gotta remove the grain first,
up the contrast.
♪
That's Ray Distefano.
He got out of prison a few months ago.
You think he has your sister?
I need his last known address right now.
Ray Distefano is a serial slasher.
He stalks and disfigures women.
And Maggie Bell has put him away
twice in the last 13 years.
Somewhere along the line, he developed
an obsession with her.
Now he is the prime suspect
in the disappearance of Erin Bell.
Now, Maggie and OA are already
en route to Distefano's place.
But I want to know his every
movement since his release.
Where is his parole officer?
His PO is Mike Waldron.
I've been calling, but no answer yet.
All right. Well, keep trying.
How the hell did someone
as high risk as Distefano
even get released from prison?
Well, it looks like
he snitched on his cellmate.
Was the judge not aware
that the last time
he cooperated in a case,
he made a direct threat to Maggie Bell?
Yeah, he was.
Recommended Distefano be confined
to a zero-tolerance
halfway house for eight months,
where he crossed with Marty Camerino.
But he was released early
from that halfway house?
- Yeah, a month ago.
- How?
Well, the Bureau of Prisons outsources
its halfway house management
to private companies.
They can get BOP approval
to kick inmates out early
just by citing an overcrowding issue.
You'd think nothing would
surprise me at this point.
Anything from the parole officer?
No, and I've called four times.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
♪
♪
- Maggie!
- What?
That's Mike Waldron.
That's Distefano's parole officer.
He was keeping me updated
since Distefano's release.
OA, this doesn't make sense.
Distefano doesn't kill.
Then why cross that line now?
Something's obviously changed.
He'll do whatever it takes
to get to me now.
[PHONE BUZZES]
[WOMAN CRYING]
What is it?
Maggie! Maggie!
[CRYING]
Please help me! Please!
Maggie!
Maggie!
Distefano will not get away with this.
We're gonna find Erin.
Do we have any idea
where this location could be?
There's no distinguishing features.
He picked it because it's generic.
- He's being careful.
- Very.
The MP4 file itself is
scrubbed of all metadata.
And he spoofed the cell phone
that texted the video.
I'm in the process of a workaround.
I can't get over
the timing of that text.
It was perfect.
We'd only been inside
his place a minute.
You think he was watching.
We checked the perimeter.
We swept inside and outside for cameras.
He had to have been close.
He waited until we were inside.
And then he waited until we
found out that Erin wasn't there.
You're right. I pulled a tower
dump from the nearest cell site
to Distefano's apartment,
matched the cell pings
to the time of the text.
You see that dot there?
The cell phone that texted this
video was just down the street.
He was watching.
Well, can we use this to find
the phone's location now?
Yeah.
OK, looks like he's heading southbound.
My guess, he's on the C train
to Brooklyn.
OK, we're gonna follow him to Erin.
Wait, Maggie. Hang back.
OA, you grab Jubal.
He's gonna ride along
with you on this one.
I got you.
[TENSE MUSIC]
♪
Maggie!
Maggie!
You see that necklace she's wearing?
♪
That was in the display window
of a jewelry store in Muncie.
Erin would make us stop by
every time we passed.
And she would beg my dad.
He, um
whatever.
[SIGHS]
I used all of my money
from bagging groceries at the Pay Less.
I bought it for her, her 13th birthday.
You're a good sister, Maggie.
If I was more in her life,
there's no way Distefano
would have been able
to get his claws into her.
You can still fix this when we find her.
Erin has the necklace on.
I know that she wants that, too.
OK, I understand why you benched me.
I can't just sit here and wait.
Maggie, who said that you were benched?
Distefano is trying
to get into your head.
I need you to get into his.
♪
Ray Distefano is a sadist
who likes to mark women.
Killing has always repulsed him.
Right, what's the point
of scarring your victims
if they're not walking around,
a constant reminder
of the power you had over them?
Right, but he's escalated to murder.
And that doesn't fit his profile.
Show me.
This is Mike Waldron,
his parole officer.
- Mm-hmm.
- We found him dead
in Distefano's apartment.
Time of death was around
6:00 PM yesterday.
Mike didn't have a check-in scheduled.
This was a random drop-in.
So the working theory is that he came
into Distefano's apartment
and he surprised him.
But he saw all of Erin's
surveillance photos.
And reacted in desperation
to protect his mission.
Male victim.
Disorganization of the scene.
Masked, not staged.
The wounds are haphazard.
Murdering Waldron
wasn't part of his plan.
Is he going to kill my sister?
♪
All right, Maggie.
Let's focus on what we do know.
Hmm?
This is between you and him.
The question is why.
♪
I'm the one that put him away.
He's been obsessed with me for 13 years.
Disproportionate response.
Last year when he was in prison,
he helped me with an investigation.
Mm-hmm.
He negotiated a furlough
to see his father, who was dying.
But his father died
before he could see him.
And I know he blames me for that.
Misplaced sorrow could be a factor
I don't care about his feelings, Peter.
I need you to figure out,
where is he holding Erin?
Prolonged captivity has
never been part of his MO.
Likely someplace he has full control
where he feels safe.
It won't be random,
may have sentimental value.
He doesn't have any attachments.
He has no friends, no siblings.
Mm-hmm.
Well, father's passed. The mother?
Nothing to do with him.
She left them a long time ago.
There's got to be something.
♪
Uh, hold on a second.
The father had a brownstone.
It's in the obituary.

Yeah, so do we.
Jubal and OA are
closing in on Distefano.
Ian, do we have a hit
on Distefano's phone?
The ping is slowing down.
Looks like he's off the train

just half a block ahead of you.
There's a lot of people out here, Ian.
Can you be more specific?
Looks like he just turned north
onto the east side of Nostrand.

There you go.
All right, it has been hours
since Distefano abducted Maggie
from his father's brownstone.
We have every agency in the
tri-state area aiding us.
Please tell me we have something.
Um, not yet, but let's walk
through it again.
Yeah, uh, Distefano left
Maggie's cell at the scene
there's no use tracking.
And he knocked Peter Olsen unconscious,
so no witness to her abduction.
Yeah, no footage.
The brownstone's in a blind spot
for pole and traffic cams.
Distefano moved Maggie
from the area quickly,
so he's likely in a vehicle.
If we knew what he was driving,
we might be able to pull it from
the surrounding areas,
- but so far, nothing.
- Right.
And, uh, nothing from the crime scene.
One possible lead.
ERT found a unique substance
from the brownstone.
Lab's doing a full chemical
analysis to identify it,
but it's a process and a longshot.
All right, every major news
outlet has picked up this story,
so we have the power
of the public behind us.
What what about the tip line?
- Has that yielded anything yet?
- Nothing credible,
but our field team is tracking down
every lead that's been called in.
What is going on, guys?
I've combed through every place
Distefano has lived and worked
- where is Maggie?
- Conference room. Now.
Dig deep. Get creative.
We're gonna find her.
Where else could he be holding her?
Are we sure that his father
doesn't have any other properties?
No. No, we triple-checked his
estate through the probate court.
- There is nothing there.
- That's not good enough, Jubal.
My partner is missing.
We have to look everywhere.
Think what Maggie would do if it was me.
What about Distefano's mother?
Estranged mother, according to her.
She owns a consignment shop in Yonkers.
Local PD talked to her.
No sign Distefano has shown up there,
but we posted a unit
down the block in case he does.
I don't have time for that.
No one knows this guy like Maggie.
We have to think like her.
You're right.
With me. Now.
- Jubal?
- Yeah.
Chemical analysis from the scene
of Maggie's abduction landed.
The gritty substance ERT found
was deicing salt
treated with beet brine.
Beet brine?
Yeah, mixing rock salt with beet brine
is a new method of treating icy roads.
Lowers the freezing point
of the ice well, water
So if the substance
did come from Distefano,
like, from his shoes
or whatever, then maybe
it originated in the place that
he's holding Maggie and Erin.
Only two counties in
the Greater New York metro area
have pilot programs
deploying beet brine,
Sullivan County and Dutchess County.
It narrows it down,
but it still gives us,
like, 2,000 square miles to search.
No, it's something.
Keep digging. Go, go, go.
The trail has run cold.
Now, you helped Maggie
catch Distefano once.
What are we missing here, Peter?
I've been poring over Distefano's file.
He's organized, highly intelligent.
I believe he counted
on Maggie being relentless.
He planned to send your team
on a wild goose chase
to lure her in alone.
But I was there.
I was a surprise.
Same as his parole officer.
But he didn't kill you.
Precisely. But why?
He took pleasure in his first kill,
perhaps lost control in the act.
Now, that's confronting
to a man like Distefano,
whose pathology is rooted in control.
He didn't want to go there,
so he let me live to stick to his plan,
his eyes on his prize.
- Maggie.
- Yes.
His obsession with Maggie is absolute.
But exploiting Erin,
it's not about reciprocation.
It's about vengeance,
uh, regaining his power.
Maggie worked with Distefano last year
when he was in prison.
Yeah, the copycat case.

You wanted me. You got me.
Let my sister go.
I knew you'd say that.
You got a savior complex. You know that?
Erin thinks so, too. She told me.
Well, she didn't exactly tell me.
That was between her and, uh, Marty.
- Where is she?
- I wasn't finished.
I see you, Maggie Bell.
I understand you.
I think being a hero
makes you feel powerful.
Gives you a little vibration
all up and down, right?
Yeah, 'cause it's all about you.
And deep down,
you don't care about anyone.
That's not true.
You are a liar, Maggie.
And you know how I know?
You told me that the gift
I gave you had healed.
But I checked.
I'm still there.
What do you want?
Maybe I want to cut you,
give you a scar that you can't hide,
can't pretend.
Or maybe that wouldn't be
enough, Maggie.
Hmm? What would do it?
You know what you want.
You've been sitting in your cell,
staring at the ceiling,
thinking about me.
So just tell me what you want,
and I'll do it, OK? I'll play your game.
This is not a game, Maggie.
This is a reckoning.
You betrayed what we had.
You betrayed me!
So this is about your father.
I asked you for one thing
in return, one small thing.
I wanted to see my father
before he died.
And you said, OK, Ray.
OK.
And I helped you.
I helped you.
But you didn't hold up your end

It is possible that,
in Distefano's eyes,
Maggie violated their bond
when she failed
to make good on their deal.
He never got to say goodbye
to his father.
If that is the wound that's
driving Distefano's escalation,
then the father could be
at the heart of it.
We need to get inside that relationship.

Last night, 7:30.
She had just been talking

She was heading out to meet him
for the first time.

Dunno.

You want to check for pole cams?

- All right.
- How are we doing with that ID?
- Yeah,
full name is Martin Camerino.
Got out of prison three months ago.
His rap sheet makes "War
and Peace" look like a haiku
grand theft auto, armed robbery,
aggravated assault against his ex-wife.
And he was accused
of stalking a woman in 2014.
Wasn't enough evidence to make it stick.
Call me judgmental,
but this guy doesn't seem
like a real catch.
He didn't lead with that.
A week after he got released,
Marty made a comment
on one of Erin's posts about sobriety.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He is a fellow addict.
And it looks like
he's using that as an angle.
But nothing in his history suggests
Camerino has addiction issues.
No?
But he heavily implied he did.
They exchanged a few more.
Then Marty slides into Erin's DMs.
They click, fast.
So Marty studied Erin online,
says what he has to to establish a bond
and get her to lower her defenses.
These are the DMs?
Yeah, he definitely got her to open up.
Pressed her about recovery,
her dating life, her family.

since Distefano abducted Maggie
from his father's brownstone.
We have every agency in the
tri-state area aiding us.
Please tell me we have something.
Um, not yet, but let's walk
through it again.
Yeah, uh, Distefano left
Maggie's cell at the scene
there's no use tracking.
And he knocked Peter Olsen unconscious,
so no witness to her abduction.
Yeah, no footage.
The brownstone's in a blind spot
for pole and traffic cams.
Distefano moved Maggie
from the area quickly,
so he's likely in a vehicle.
If we knew what he was driving,
we might be able to pull it from
the surrounding areas,
- but so far, nothing.
- Right.
And, uh, nothing from the crime scene.
One possible lead.
ERT found a unique substance
from the brownstone.
Lab's doing a full chemical
analysis to identify it,
but it's a process and a longshot.
All right, every major news
outlet has picked up this story,
so we have the power
of the public behind us.
What what about the tip line?
- Has that yielded anything yet?
- Nothing credible,
but our field team is tracking down
every lead that's been called in.
What is going on, guys?
I've combed through every place
Distefano has lived and worked
- where is Maggie?
- Conference room. Now.
Dig deep. Get creative.
We're gonna find her.
Where else could he be holding her?
Are we sure that his father
doesn't have any other properties?
No. No, we triple-checked his
estate through the probate court.
- There is nothing there.
- That's not good enough, Jubal.
My partner is missing.
We have to look everywhere.
Think what Maggie would do if it was me.
What about Distefano's mother?
Estranged mother, according to her.
She owns a consignment shop in Yonkers.
Local PD talked to her.
No sign Distefano has shown up there,
but we posted a unit
down the block in case he does.
I don't have time for that.
No one knows this guy like Maggie.
We have to think like her.
You're right.
With me. Now.
- Jubal?
- Yeah.
Chemical analysis from the scene
of Maggie's abduction landed.
The gritty substance ERT found
was deicing salt
treated with beet brine.
Beet brine?
Yeah, mixing rock salt with beet brine
is a new method of treating icy roads.
Lowers the freezing point
of the ice well, water
So if the substance
did come from Distefano,
like, from his shoes
or whatever, then maybe
it originated in the place that
he's holding Maggie and Erin.
Only two counties in
the Greater New York metro area
have pilot programs
deploying beet brine,
Sullivan County and Dutchess County.
It narrows it down,
but it still gives us,
like, 2,000 square miles to search.
No, it's something.
Keep digging. Go, go, go.
The trail has run cold.
Now, you helped Maggie
catch Distefano once.
What are we missing here, Peter?
I've been poring over Distefano's file.
He's organized, highly intelligent.
I believe he counted
on Maggie being relentless.
He planned to send your team
on a wild goose chase
to lure her in alone.
But I was there.
I was a surprise.
Same as his parole officer.
But he didn't kill you.
Precisely. But why?
He took pleasure in his first kill,
perhaps lost control in the act.
Now, that's confronting

his eyes on his prize.
- Maggie.
- Yes.
His obsession with Maggie is absolute.
But exploiting Erin,
it's not about reciprocation.
It's about vengeance,
uh, regaining his power.
Maggie worked with Distefano last year

Yeah, the copycat case.

You son of a bitch!
Maggie Bell. No pleasantries?
That's frustrating, huh? I know.
I wore the cuffs last time.
You wanted me. You got me.
Let my sister go.
I knew you'd say that.
You got a savior complex. You know that?
Erin thinks so, too. She told me.
Well, she didn't exactly tell me.
That was between her and, uh, Marty.
- Where is she?
- I wasn't finished.
I see you, Maggie Bell.
I understand you.
I think being a hero
makes you feel powerful.
Gives you a little vibration
all up and down, right?
Yeah, 'cause it's all about you.

That's not true.
You are a liar, Maggie.

You told me that the gift
I gave you had healed.

Maybe I want to cut you,
give you a scar that you can't hide,
can't pretend.

enough, Maggie.
Hmm? What would do it?
You know what you want.
You've been sitting in your cell,
staring at the ceiling,
thinking about me.
So just tell me what you want,
and I'll do it, OK? I'll play your game.
This is not a game, Maggie.
This is a reckoning.
You betrayed what we had.
You betrayed me!
So this is about your father.
I asked you for one thing
in return, one small thing.
I wanted to see my father
before he died.

OK.

He never got to say goodbye

Is there anything that
you can tell us, Ms. Squiteri,
about Ray, his father's relationship,
any biographical details
that could help us locate
where he is holding my partner?
Ray was 12 when I left.
I don't know how helpful I can be.
Did Lou do that to you, your husband?
[CHUCKLES]
Among others. Forget-me-nots.
He gave one to Ray, too,
a reminder of who was
in charge, I suppose.
But Ray idolized his father, no?
Oh, to say the least.
His father was the world to him.
There was no daylight between those two,
certainly no room for me.
But it wasn't right.
A man shouldn't raise his son like that.
Raise him how?
He was training Ray.
Training him for violence?
How was he training your son?
[SCOFFS] Every day, little things.
Survival strategies.
Oh, and he'd take him to these
these camps up in the woods.
Knives, axes.
Ray loved it.

All right, people. Listen up.

Ray Distefano's father took him
to survivalist camps upstate,
a company called Natural Selection.

Maggie and Erin there
at one of the old campgrounds.
Now, OA and Peter Olsen
are headed north now.
But we need to point them
to a specific site.
So let's talk about this company.
- Right, Natural Selection.
- Yeah.
It went under in 2003
after allegations
of child abuse at the camps.
Great, so where are these campgrounds?
- Uh, yeah, here we go.
- OK.
They operated 17 different sites
all the way up to the Canadian border.
OK, so they could be anywhere
from here to the St. Lawrence River?
- We got to do better.

traces of beet brine
at the abduction site?
The road deicing.
So are any of these campgrounds
in Dutchess or Sullivan County?
Only one.
