addition to my collection.

You're mine now, Miss Alden.

Mine, forever!

Griffin! Griffin!

Miss Alden.

Miss Alden?

I'm Detective Delgado.

I'm the chief investigator on this case.

I only wish we were meeting under

more pleasant circumstances.

I've seen you on TV.

How's your neck?

It hurts a little.

The officers took me

to the hospital,

but the doctor said that the

cut's not very deep, so...

We found this in your apartment.

Is it yours?

It's my necklace.

Must've gotten caught

on the wire.

Wire?

Uh, it was a steel wire,

with handles on the ends that would...

...tighten when he twisted them.

He called it a "garrote."

We had assumed he used a knife.

Did he say why he attacked you?

No.

Did he suggest that you

had met previously,

either socially or at work?

He never said

anything like that.

I'm sure I've

never met him before.

So you didn't

recognize his voice?

No. He was whispering.

But he knew my name.

He kept saying,

"Miss Wendy Alden,"

or just, "Miss Alden."

He was very polite.

They said somebody was murdered

in my building last night.

Jennifer Kutzlow?

Miss Alden...

Please, don't call me that.

That's what he called me.

Please just say, "Wendy."

Just... Call me Wendy.

I'm sorry, Wendy.

I know this is hard.

I just hate this so much.

Hey. You're doing fine.

You got away.

You survived.

I stabbed him.

He'll probably wanna come even the score.

You gave him a lot more

trouble than he bargained for.

We're gonna get him.

And in the meantime?

You'll be protected. I'll have

officers with you around the clock.

Oh, hello, Jeffrey,

how you doing, man?

Sorry to wake you so early,

I just had to apologize

about the party on the weekend,

not making it and all...

Oh, is this Jeffrey Booker?

Oh, Jeffrey Palman!

I'm sorry, man, I got the wrong Jeffrey.

Yeah, it happens. It's Robert.

I'm sorry to wake ya.

Wendy, do you have

a place you can stay?

Can I use your phone?

Hi, Jeffrey, it's Wendy.

Um, I'm at the police station.

No...

I'll explain everything

to you later. I just...

...called because I wanted to

know if I could stay with you.

For, uh...

A little while.

I'll have officers take

you there later on today.

Okay. Uh, the detective said that

he's going to have his officers

bring me over to you later.

Thanks. I'll see you later.

Okay. Bye.

I think we've, uh,

covered enough for now.

I gotta finish up

some of my notes.

We have a room here

that you can lay down.

It's nothing much,

but you can get some rest

before we have to

take you to Jeffrey's.

Thank you.

Is she okay?

Yeah.

She was the Griffin's

target from the start.

What happened to you?

Later, okay?
