Columbus Circle Page #2

Synopsis: Abigail Clayton lives alone. Very alone. In fact, the attractive heiress has not left her Manhattan loft apartment for almost two decades. The famous daughter of a wealthy industrialist, Abigail disappeared from the prying eyes of the press and the intrusiveness of her family on her 18th birthday, the day she received her massive inheritance. During years of self-imposed isolation, Abigail has had contact with only two people-her building's Concierge, Klandermann, with whom she communicates via notes-and Dr. Raymond Fontaine, a longtime family friend and her sole confidant for most of her life. When the death of her elderly neighbor prompts NYPD Homicide Detective Frank Giardello to launch an investigation, the agoraphobic Abigail is distressed to find him outside her door, asking to question her. Having tried to acquire the dead woman's now vacant apartment to ensure her privacy, Abigail is further upset when her requests go unanswered, and new tenants Lillian and Charlie move in. Abi

That was her name.

But I thought you

didn't know her at all.

No, Detective, I did not.

So why would you call her by her first

name if you didn't know her at all?

All right. Are we done yet?

No. Just a few more minutes.

Um, over the last couple

of days or weeks,

were there any strange visitors

or anything out of the ordinary

that you were aware of

coming from the apartment?

No strange sounds last

night when she died?

Since I don't know when

she died, day or night,

and since I've already

made it clear

that I didn't hear anything out of the

ordinary coming from her apartment,

then I'd venture to guess

that we are entering

into an area of...

Hmm, redundancy?

Okay, now we're done.

Thank you for the coffee.

I'm gonna give you a couple of cards.

If you think of

anything, uh, call me.

Thank you.I will.

Okay.

Hey, this is a really nice vase.

It's a little confusing,

but it's nice.

I'm sure you could

figure it out.

Her name

is Justine Waters,

"and she was known as

America's little darling."

The sole heiress of

the Waters fortune,

estimated in the hundreds

of millions of dollars,

she mysteriously disappeared

Take a look at these

home videos of Justine.

They show her at the Waters family

summer cottage in upstate New York.

As you can see, Justine

is being filmed

showcasing her hula hoop skills.

At the time, she held the world

record of 14 straight hours.

Now, there's been much speculation

on Justine's whereabouts.

Theories range from her running

off with a Saudi prince

to her being a victim

of foul play.

Now while the great and

powerful Phillip Waters

claimed until his

death five years ago

that he never stopped

looking for his daughter,

Justine's 17year silence

remains the most talked about

missing persons mystery to date.

In the days leading up to what would

become her historic vanishing act,

it was rumored that

had just become engaged to Prince

Achmed Mustafi of Jordan.

What did happen to

Justine Waters?

And will we ever see her again?

I'm Jerry Penacoli for Extra.

I'm wondering if

you could help me identify

this crest?

Interesting. Yeah? Why is that?

Well, this could

be a family crest.

This is the letter "M", correct?

Well, that was the intention.

The drawing is rough, but...

Well, where'd

you find this?

I can't really tell you.

I just need to find out what it is.

Okay. I got a book in the back,

something of an

almanac, so to speak.

Might be able to find a match.

How long do you think...

Oh, one second.

Yeah?

Yeah, I went through all

the evidence like you asked.

Hey, put it out. Step on it.

Yeah, what do you got? Not much.

The only thing that

might interest you
