You look absolutely gorgeous, as always.

Thanks.

At about 7:
50 she came

outside and informed me

she would prefer to walk.

It's exactly a 12 minute walk,

we've done it before.

Around 8:
00 am we

were waiting to cross

rideau street..

I looked at my phone and, um..

That point she crossed

and we became separated.

I yelled her name but she

had her headphones in,

she did not hear me.

When traffic allowed me

to pass she had rounded

the corner in the alley,

at which point I-

may I interrupt you for a second, please?

You took your eyes off her?

That's correct.

I should've never taken my eyes off her.

But I did for one second.

I then tried to cross,

there was a truck

in my way, and so-

you took your eyes off her.

Okay, my daughter is missing.

Mrs. Adams?

Do something.

We're taking care of it.

Mrs. Adams,

they're our top two

lead investigators on this case.

Continue, please.

Jennifer!

Hang on!

Jennifer!

When she rounded the corner,

at that point is when I...

..Saw her headphones

on the ground.

Jennifer?

I cased the immediate area and

when I did not find her I called it in.

This is special agent Derek Sampson.

We have a situation.

Dispatch Ottawa police immediately.

With all due respect, sir,

this is an American citizen.

I think that we should

lead the investigation.

How can you lead the investigation?

You're in Canada.

Whether it's an abduction or a kidnapping..

It's Canadian.

We got jurisdiction.

Do we not?

Excuse me.

I'm here, sir, at the personal request

of the president of the United States.

Now, if you will allow us, as observers

just as observers... I

think we might be able

to provide the leverage you might need.

Director:

That's acceptable.

What do you mean it's acceptable?

I mean, with all due respect, director,

you are the director.

I don't want FBI and secret service

to get in our

way. I mean-

you are the lead investigators, both of you.

I'll leave it to my partner.

Robert? You

okay with that?

I think it's a great idea.

We have a common goal:

To find the ambassador's daughter.

Alfonse?

Fine.. Fine.

Alfonse, can you get to the crime scene?

If you don't mind, I would like to speak to

the ambassador first, and his wife

to get a bit of intel.

I don't think at this

stage of the game we're

gonna add anything to what's going on

at the crime scene.

Sir, I'm gonna have to disagree.

I think we need to get to the crime scene.

It's not protocol for

you to disagree or-

it's protocol to go to a crime scene

when a crime happens.

Please, I'm speaking to

my director here, okay?

I don't want to get in a pissing match here.

Before I start my investigation, if I may..
