Garage Sale Mystery: The Beach Murder Page #5

---

50 YARDS NORTH OF THE CAR.

IS THIS MY FAULT?

ANNE, DON'T SAY THAT.

I ASKED HIM NOT TO GO BACK

TO THE OTHER BEACH.

MAYBE HE DIDN' KNOW THIS PLACE,

YOU KNOW, MAYBE

THERE WAS A ROCK.

THIS IS NOT YOUR FAULT.

OKAY...

LET'S GET THE CAR

AND GET OUT OF HERE.

DO YOU WANT TO PUT YOUR STUFF IN

THE CAR?

WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?

I'M JUST WONDERING

WHY THE BODY WAS FOUND

WAY BACK THERE,

BUT THE CAR IS UP HERE.

I MEAN, THIS IS WHERE

HE MUST HAVE ENTERED THE WATER.

I DON'T KNOW.

CURRENTS?

THIS CARPET IS WET.

MAYBE HE SURFED:

SOMEPLACE FIRST,

AND PUT HIS WETSUIT IN THE BACK.

I WANT TO HEAD BACK.

ANNE, ARE YOU GOING TO BE OKAY?

WOULD YOU LIKE ME

TO COME OVER?

MY FOLKS:

AND SOME FRIENDS

ARE ON THEIR WAY.

I NEED TO CALL TODD.

I'LL BE FINE.

IT HASN'T REALLY HIT.

THANKS.

OKAY--

ACTUALLY,

I FEEL KINDA WEIRD

DRIVING HIS CAR.

[KEYS JINGLING]

COULD YOU DRIVE I AND I'LL TAKE YOURS?

OF COURSE.

[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS]

HERE YOU GO.

THANK YOU.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

SO, WAS STEVE

BY HIMSELF?

AS FAR AS ANYONE KNOWS.

THE FIRST THING ANNE SAID

WHEN SHE HEARD THE NEWS WAS,

"I DON'T BELIEVE IT."

THAT'S A NATURAL REACTION,

DON'T YOU THINK?

HIS CAR WAS VANDALIZED

BY SURFERS,

AND HE HAD CONFRONTATIONS

IN THE PAST.

YOU KNOW:

I LOVE YOUR MIND.

[CHUCKLES]

YOU'RE ABLE TO FIGURE OU WHERE A MISSING SOCK WENT,

AND WHY THERE ARE BLOOD STAINS

ON A 30-YEAR-OLD WEDDING DRESS.

OH, GOSH,

YOU REMEMBER THAT?

I DO.

AND SOME OTHERS.

BUT THIS ONE?

SURFING IS A HIGH-RISK SPORT.

PEOPLE DROWN ALL THE TIME.

I KNOW.

I KNOW, JUST, WHEN ANNE

WAS IMMEDIATELY SUSPICIOUS,

IT STARTED ME THINKING.

HEY, UM,

SO I TALKED TO HANNAH,

AND SHE SAID SHE'S GOING

TO HELP WITH THE AUDITION.

GREAT.

YOU KNOW,

I DID THEATER:

BACK IN THE DAY.

I HEARD.

PRINCE CHARMING, RIGHT?

THAT'S RIGHT.

SO, IF YOU WAN SOME INPUT, SOME HELP--

I THINK I'LL JUST, UH,

START WITH HANNAH,

BUT, UH, THANKS.

"THE SHOE FITS!

THE SHOE FITS..."

OH, THAT'S NOT BAD.

YOU'RE BOTH MOCKING ME.

[ENTRY BELL JINGLES]

HI.

I'VE GO SOME SPORTS MEMORABILIA

I'D LIKE TO GET RID OF.

LET ME GUESS, PACKERS?

HOW DID YOU KNOW?

JUST A HUNCH.

OH.

I'D JUST LIKE TO GET I OUT OF THE HOUSE.

I'M JENNIFER.

I REMEMBER YOU BROUGH SOME THINGS IN BEFORE,

SOME LOVELY CANDLESTICKS.

THAT'S RIGHT.

I... DON'T SEE THEM.

I FOUND A BUYER.

THEY WERE PRETTY UNIQUE.

IF YOU DON' MIND ME ASKING,

DO YOU REMEMBER:

WHERE YOU GOT THEM?

THEY WERE A PRESENT.

A-A WEDDING PRESENT.

OH.

WELL, I'M SORRY

TO HEAR THAT.

LONG STORY.

NOT OVER YET.

YOU'RE STILL MARRIED?

YOU COULD SAY THAT.

I HAVE AN AUTHENTIC HELMET,

A FOOTBALL SIGNED BY THE TEAM

WHEN THEY WON THE CHAMPIONSHIP.

ARE YOU INTERESTED?

YES.

WE WOULD BE HAPPY
