Devil's Gate Page #3

And...She bought

all that talk about

it being blessed

and all.

Blessed?

Jonah was her reward

from god for keeping the faith

is what she said.

Can you think of any reason

why your sister

might take off somewhere

and not tell you?

Not a chance,

no, she, she told me

if she changes

the channel.

And Jonah,

he likes staying here?

Sure,

we got a -- we got a, uh

playground down

the road, um,

a bunch of kids his age.

I -- I've even made him

a little place for him

to sleep,

you know, like a..

A little nook that he can,

he can make his own.

Could I see it?

Maria and me'd take my bed

and he'd sleep in there.

The closet?

He preferred it

to being out in the open.

He said it made him

feel safer.

That man is a monster!

Grandma,

you shouldn't be up.

You ask him what he did.

You ask him

what he did with Maria

and little Jonah.

- You ask him.

- It's okay. It's okay.

If they die on that land

their souls will never

find rest.

Nobody's died, okay?

These people are here

to help.

Don't you worry.

Don't you worry.

We're gonna..

We're gonna find

Maria and Jonah.

You are, aren't you?

Doesn't leave us a whole

lot of options, does it?

No. No, it doesn't.

Wait.

What are you talkin' about?

Get in.

We have to check out

Jackson pritchard now.

We've almost certainly got

enough probable cause

for a search warrant --

whoa, whoa.

Ease it back there.

Look, I agree that what

Theresa said

raises some questions

but I mean, I've already

been out there.

And the sheriff was

pretty clear about leaving

Jackson be for now.

I think that we should

look for Maria's car

and recheck

the hospitals.

Meanwhile, who knows

what he could be doing

to Maria and her son.

It's his son, too.

Remember that.

They've just been through

some tough times.

Economic hardship does

crazy things to people.

I ran track

with Jackson.

He was always serious,

and more than

a little weird..

...but he's a good man

at his core. I know it.

You heard what Ms. Locke

said about

his abusive behavior.

- Yeah, but..

- Look at this.

Does that look like

the work of a kid

who feels safe

around his father?

Shouldn't that be bagged

for evidence?

Whatever you think

you know about pritchard

could determine the fate

of two people, deputy salter.

Okay, so the pritchard

place is way out on the

other side of the county

but if we're not back

right away, the sheriff's

gonna know something's up.

If we do this,

i gotta put a call in.

You already know

what he's gonna say.

Haven't you ever heard

it's easier to beg

for forgiveness

than ask for permission?

- I heard it

the other way around.

- Still.

What are you gonna do
