Were you f***ing her?

- We're gonna find out.

- No, l...

where is the girl?

Where is your principal?

We're gonna have to take this

from the top again.

- Okay, Mr. Gaines?

- Yes, sir.

I want the clock up.

Let's get the clock up, please.

We got until her Monday-morning class,

then it's Meet the Press and "where is she?"

The professor.

Who's got the professor?

- Where is he?

- Martha's vineyard.

- Who's got him?

- Parr and shannon.

Wake him up, shake him up.

He don't wanna talk...

...here's what we have him doing with his

female students. Show them to his wife.

- We got the state cops on the scrambler.

- The photo.

This is the last known photo of the girl.

Sir!

It's the professor.

- You had him at his home.

- We were in error.

- Where is he?

- Best guess puts him on his boat.

Last seen, west Tisbury,

Martha's vineyard.

- Show me.

- Right here.

Find him. Put the guard on him.

Get me an overflight.

- I hear you.

- I'm 25 men light here.

- Who's got the coast Guard?

- I got them.

I need an overflight.

Coast Guard search and Rescue.

Coast Guard on the red phone.

New Bedford!

- What's the name of his boat?

- The Colophon, out of west Tisbury.

Sir.

- It's the boyfriend. He's moving.

- I need a stalker on the boyfriend. Now.

- I've got him.

- Call it out. Hold surveillance.

I've got two days to run in

before the press wakes up.

Yes, sir.

Let me see your hands, son.

Right now.

Drop it.

Did you lose your mailbox key, son?

- You a student here?

- Yes.

Can I see some identification, please?

- Section 12, this is...

- No, please. Please.

Calm down.

It's gonna be what it's gonna be.

Can I talk to you for one minute?

Just one minute, all right?

This... It's not what it looks like.

I broke up with my girlfriend.

This is her mailbox. It's Laura.

- Laura Newton.

- Laura?

- Yes.

- Newton?

The Laura Newton?

That's right. We broke up.

- They know who I am.

- They?

- The secret service.

- Secret service?

That's right.

They know who I am.

They cleared me.

They didn't clear you for this.

Let's go.

- Okay...

- Let's go.

- I was just trying to retrieve the letter.

- This is not very nice language.

"You deserve everything

that's gonna happen to you."

What's gonna happen to her?

Did you hurt her?

Did you hit her?

Hit her? No.

- I called her a whore.

- What's this sign?

What does this sign mean?

Right here.

She signs all of her letters with that.

It's because she...

...sees things cockeyed, like Picasso.

- Picasso.

She says they call her Picasso.

Why did you fight with her, son?

She got her hair done.

Dyed it blond. She cut it off.

I called her a slut.
