an award-winning taxidermist.

Everyone, Mr. Greenblatt.

Poor Miss Dawson.

The man she loves is missing,

and even worse, yesterday

he told her to take a hike.

She must be wiggin'.

A deep-tissue massage

at the Peacock Spa

would do her wonders.

Now, if at all possible,

wrap your fish in a wet towel.

- Then...

- Excuse me, Miss Dawson.

Is Lexy Gold here?

Me?

- Ah. Alexandra Gold?

- Am I in trouble for something?

No, no. I was wondering if

I could ask you a few questions.

I'm Detective Potter.

Please sit down.

How do I know you're

really a detective?

Oh.

Now, I understand you write

a gossip column

for the school newspaper?

It's an advice column.

You may have special

knowledge about a relationship

between Mr. Walker

and Miss Dawson. Is that correct?

Oh.

Before I go any further,

I just want to say congratulations

on your article

in yesterday's Daily Examiner.

- It was most impressive.

- Oh, you saw it?

Oh, yes. What a great photo.

Did you take it?

Yes, I did. Thank you.

You know, up until my article

ran, I was the only one

who knew how in love

Mr. Walker and Miss Dawson were.

Well, I told

my best friend Jennifer.

And then yesterday...

- What happened yesterday?

- Well, they broke up.

Actually, he broke up with her.

Miss Dawson was really upset.

- You witnessed this?

- Well, they were arguing,

and she said one of them

would have to leave Millington,

and it wasn't gonna be her.

You know,

she might be a big help.

I'll be in touch

if I have any further questions.

Um, Detective Potter, sir,

has anyone ever told you you'd

look better without the knobs?

Uh... no.

Well, I really think

you should consider it.

Uh, that'll be all, Miss Gold.

Thank you for your time.

The pleasure was mine.

Miss Dawson. I'm Detective Potter.

Please have a seat.

Did you find him?

No, not yet.

So who are you

eavesdropping on this time?

Shh. There's a detective

in there with Miss Dawson.

I have it

from more than one source

that you and Mr. Walker

had romantic ties.

- Is that true?

- Yes, it is.

When'd you last see Mr. Walker?

Um...

- Well, yesterday afternoon.

- Mm-hmm.

Did he seem angry?

Was he upset?

He was perfectly fine.

Really? I learned from one

of your students that you had

an altercation

with Mr. Walker yesterday

and threatened him

if he did not leave this school.

Is that accurate?

Would you mind coming downtown

with me for further questioning?

Think I'd better contact my lawyer.

Oh, no. That detective thinks

that Miss Dawson has something

to do with Mr. Walker's disappearance,

and it's my fault.

Don't flatter yourself. She's the

lead suspect, without your big mouth.

The only thing she is guilty of is
