In Her Skin Page #2

in one of these things,

haven't they?

Mike, I'm sorry.

I thought if you knew,

you'd wait,

and I thought we'd lose time,

and I know that

we have to find her.

She's in trouble.

I know.

What did Manni say to you?

He told me that she was going

to meet an older woman,

a friend, that she'd offered her

money for a job.

What older women

does she know?

I went through her phone book.

I can't think of anyone.

She's bloody done

something stupid.

She's not dead.

I don't feel it.

I'd know.

We'd know.

We'd know.

I barely spoke to her

yesterday.

We'll find her.

We'll find her.

This is Detective Patterson

here from missing persons.

I received a call.

Yes, well,

young girls of this age

tend to go missing all the time,

Mrs. Barber.

I'm sure it's quite unusual,

but you're gonna

have to trust me on...

You're going to have

to trust me on this one,

Mrs. Barber.

The statistics

will back me up on this.

She's only been gone a...

Mrs. Barber,

she's only been gone a...

Okay, Mrs. Barber.

Yes, I'm hearing you, yep.

Okay.

Mr. and Mrs. Barber?

Mrs. Barber?

Yes, can we wait?

My husband's

just gone to the car.

We've left the mobile phone

in the car.

He can follow us up.

Just so you understand,

this type of report is not

usually investigated by CIB.

However, I have been

asked to take a statement.

[bell tolling]

[baby crying]

[speaking indistinctly]

F*** off.

Okay.

Can I wait for my husband,

please?

Oh, he can catch up.

The toys...

[phone ringing]

[laughter]

This'll be the third time

this week.

Yeah, he's doing all right.

All he does is drink

and go to football.

Yeah.

I'm sorry.

Can you just tell me

where my wife went, please?

- Has she gone inside?

- Just hold on.

I just want you to find out

where my wife is, please.

Sir, calm down.

I am calm.

I just want to be

with my wife now, please.

Just want to check

I've got everything.

Ah, Mr. Barber.

Where have you been?

They wouldn't bring me up.

To reiterate,

there is simply no evidence

of foul play.

She wouldn't run away.

Her bag is missing.

Her favorite teddy bear

is gone.

I told you.

She was offered a job.

Someone has taken her.

Or she might be out

on the town having a good time.

This happens every day.

Not to us, it doesn't.

[sighs]

Well, there's not much else

I can do.

This poster you've made up,

you've put your phone number

on it.

You'll get prank calls.

Well, at this stage,

any calls would be welcome.

In fact,

any help would be welcome.

I understand

you've been searching for her

out on the street.

Yeah, we have.

Piece of advice.

People that

don't want to be found

can't be found.

It's an impossible task.

I mean, you could walk around
