record supplies.

My goodness, Evelyn must just

be going out of her mind.

Oh, she is, she is.

Well, I will check on her.

You know, Warren's

- Hey, sheriff.

- Hey, Warren.

No, I haven't.

I want to speak

to you about her.

She was, um...

She worked with me

until about 5:
00.

And then it looked like rain

and, uh...

And then I offered her

a ride home,

but she said she had

enough time to make it.

Hmm. What was she doing

helping you?

Helping me check in

text books.

No, i-i mean, uh...

Why was she helping you?

She liked to help,

i suppose.

Does she help other teachers?

No. Just me.

but I've gotta visit

my mom up north.

Oh, god.

Oh, Margaret!

- Grandma!

little girl tied

to her bike

and dumped in the river?

You have any idea who did it?

No, I don't.

We had a Saturday night

poker murder

north side of town

about a year ago.

But everybody knew

who did it

and nobody tried

to keep it a secret.

But I never seen nothing

like this.

16-year-old girl.

Well, you might want to have

a little chat with the father.

He's dead.

In fact, he died in the sticks,

too, about 13 years ago.

No, I mean the father

of the baby she's carrying.

This girl's about

four months pregnant.

Behold,

i show you a mystery.

We shall not all sleep,

but we shall be changed

in a moment.

For the trumpet shall sound,

and the dead shall be raised

incorruptibly.

And we shall all be changed.

I'll be right there.
