Who is David Woods?

Can you not ask

questions! Just

do it, please?

I'm still at

the hospital with my Mom.

I'll have to do it later.

This is important.

Do you promise me

you're going to do it?

I said I would.

Thank you.

The woman in the mirror lies.

Hello.

Ally, I checked on line

like you asked me to.

What did you find out?

David and Lucy Woods

were reported missing

May 5th 2006.

I knew it.

Who reported them missing?

David's mother. A few

days before he disappeared

he told his mother

that Lucy left him

for another man

and went back to Chicago.

They were only married

six months.

She was pregnant,

it says he had a history

of depression

and tried to kill

himself the year before

when Lucy

tried to call

off the engagement.

Alice, do you really

think he killed her?

I don't know.

What do you think

happened to David?

I'll call you back.

David.

David, come on.

This this

is hurting my arms.

I know you

slept with him.

Admit it.

Say it!

David, you gotta

stop and think.

Think about

this. Jesus.

I swear to God.

I swear to God baby.

You just

tell me the truth,

from the beginning

and this will be over.

This is ridiculous.

You called him

because you were lonely.

Because I neglected

you. And, right?

David?

It was Luke, wasn't it?

Do you...? Luke?

Just say it.

Marie was out of town,

and Luke was lonely too,

so you called him up and

Oh, my God.

You seduced him.

Oh my God.

David, we're having a baby!

That thing's not my child.

Oh, no.

Say it.

Just tell me

the truth, Lucy.

It's all I want,

it's just...

He, he, he,

I'll still love you.

Gosh!

I, uh...

Tsk. I seduced him.

Come on, David.

Come on.

Say it.

We made love and.

I only saw you, though.

Oh, oh.

Oh, sh*t.

David!

David!

David!

David.

David! David.

No. No!

Phew.

Ugh.

Oh, Lucy.

Hello? Who's this?

It's Ben.

Don't hang up, please.

What do you want?

Forgiveness.

For what?

While I was in prison

I thought about you a lot.

What I put you through.

The things

I said to you.

The baby.

You're in the house.

You've been

in the house all along.

It's been you, watching me.

No, I'm in Boston

with my mother.

You're a liar.

Please let me talk.

Look. I just need

to tell you that I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. And I know,

I know the baby was mine.

And I know that,

I know that I killed it!

I'm sorry. I promise that

I'll never hurt you again.

I'm going to let

you go Alice. You're free.

Lucy.

Lucy.

We're free now.

David!

David. What are you doing?

You damn idiot!

You damn fool!

David.

Are you all right?

Lucy.

Lucy?

Alice? Where

have you been?

The gun. Where

did you put the gun?

What?

He's in the house.
