Check out all these little things, like this little, you know - fluffy animals...

And some games, because I know you

kids like play games.

And candles, and little figurines.

These angels are so pretty...

Very sweet, and uh, you know - some of these little things...

There you go!

It's nice with the candles and everything, right?

And there is one rule.

No adults allowed!

Ok?

That's a cute hat - I like that hat very much.

Would you like a refreshment Susie?

Actually I have to go.

- No, be polite.

You have to be polite.

Be polite.

That's another rule.

It's warm in here.

I'm warm - are you warm?

You can take your coat off, if you want.

You're very pretty, Susie.

Thanks...

Do you have a boyfriend?

No? I knew it, see... I knew you

weren't like those other girls. I knew that.

Mr. Harvey?

It's nice down here, isn't it?

Special - special down here, right?

Yes - it is, it's very special.

... But I have to go.

I don't want you to leave.

I'm not going to hurt you, Susie.

If you see her, would you please just call? Thank you.

She's not with the Steads.

- Where are my keys?

Where are they?

- I don't know honey. In the bowl by the door?

Where you going?

Jack, could you just wait?

Jack, would you please wait for the police?

Look, stay by the phone.

Man, she's gonna be in so much trouble...

Go back to bed, sweetie.

Ok...

Guys, this is my little girl Susie. She hasn't

come home from school - have you seen her?

- No, I ain't seen nobody.

- No?

Ma'am, could you take a look at this?

Have you seen this little girl?

Sorry, buddy.

Can you take a look at this please? This is my little girl - she hasn't come home.

- I'm sorry... Could you look at that?

Ma'am, have you seen this girl?

Please, could you just take a look?

Susan has been missing for... what is it, four hours?

Susie, we call her Susie.

Yeah - a little more than four hours.

This is the first time she's run away?

She didn't run away - she's... she's missing.

Any problems at home?

Family difficulties?

Um, no - there really are no problems.

This is a happy... she's a happy... child.

She's never done this detective, she...

- I understand that. I just have to get a sense of...

She's not home, and she always comes home.

- of what's going on here.

There's nothing going on.

She's missing!

If you see her, please call me, ok? - Sure thing, Jack. I'll come back and see you guys in a little while. - Take care!

Dad?

Excuse me - Sorry to interrupt you. My name's Jack Salmon, I live right around the corner...

Dad!

Dad!

Can you put together a list of all her friends, and...

their names and contact information?
