The Summoning

---

[Gunshots]

I can't thank you enough

for getting us

the rent money in advance.

It's for the best,

you know.

We're going to be

with my mother

for the last couple

of weeks of her life,

and then she's gonna

be at peace.

I just wish there was

more I could do,

but you know how it is

with graduation right now.

No, no, no. You've done more

than enough for us here.

You've been like

a daughter to me

the last couple of years

that you lived here,

especially since Bill and I

have no children of our own.

Everything's ready.

Do you need me

to get anything else?

Yeah, could you go out back

and get that cooler

and fill it with ice

before we leave?

I already packed that up.

I guess that's

everything we need, then.

Okay.

Okay, now, the number

to my mother's house

is up on the refrigerator

just in case you need

anything at all.

- Okay, thanks.

- And we're going to try

to get back

for your graduation,

- I promise.

- Really?

I'd love that so much.

All right, you take care.

You, too.

Drive safely.

Bye!

[Woman] Oh, Bill, you

just killed that tree.

It's a 13 page essay?

Yeah, no more

than 15 pages, Rachel.

Okay. Thanks, Professor.

- Oh, no problem. Have a good day.

- Thanks.

- See you in class tomorrow.

- Thank you.

See you tomorrow.

- Hey.

- Hey.

How did you do

on the exam today?

Finished early.

Figured we'd get a head start

on our next mock case.

Still trying to wrap my head

around the last one.

I know. We only have

two weeks.

[Man]

A slave named Deborah.

See, here's the thing,

good buddy.

I, A, need your story

on the record.

Since you're just

one case away

from being kicked off,

your story

has to be massaged

to fit within

certain parameters,

are you with me?

Law is the law,

and the fact is even

child-molesting murderers

have the right to hospital

care and a lawyer,

neither of which he got,

because he arrived D.O.A.

thank you very much.

We'll see it probably

in the news.

But as of now, my friend,

you... you are a hero.

So do me a favor.

Let's keep it that way.

Get out of here.

Hi. I think there's

someone in my house.

Sh*t.

[Police radio chatter]

No signs of forced entry.

You certain the turners

didn't stop on by?

Yeah, I'm sure.

Molly would have called me

or left me a voicemail

or something.

I searched the entire area.

The house is clean.

I'm telling you guys,

there was someone in there.

We'll have the prints

run for testing,

see if there's anything

in our database that matches.

We'll keep you posted.

That's all for now.

Thank you.

Let's get out of here.

Come on, let's go.

You know, Beth,

when I finally...

...found the guy

that took away our Abby...

I was sure things

would go back to normal.

Like, even though

she was dead,

I figured you'd

find closure,

that I would.

But I don't know...

I don't know

what to say to that.

You found him,

but you're never going

to be able to bring me back

my little girl alive.

There are no more birthdays,

graduation, no wedding

to look forward to.

All that was taken.

Is that why you left?

Part of it was anger,

and your obsession

with the case at the time.

That's when I needed

you the most.

You were so cold.

Mostly because

she was her daddy's girl.

She had your face

and your heart.

I just couldn't...

I couldn't keep waking up

to that anymore.

Hey.

It's all right.

It's okay.

I miss her.

[Music playing

on headphones]

[Static buzzing]

[Static continues]

Hey.

You don't look so good.

- Barely sleeping.

- Why?

I think there was someone

in the house again last night.

- I don't...

- Should have called me.

I mean, the police.

Did you call the police?

Nothing in the house

was working,

not the phones, nothing.

I ended up back

at Anna's again.

- Oh, wow.

- I know.

The Turners have any

guns in the house?

What am I gonna

do with a gun?

I don't know.

I'm just saying.

I wouldn't even know

how to use it.

I'll keep the phone

and the bat close by.

Cool.

Hey, you got fitted

for your cap and gown yet?

No, I haven't.

Want to go after class?

- Yeah.

- All right. See you later?

- Yeah. See you later.

- Yeah, okay. Bye.

Just need to know

how it happened,

what you can recall.

This car appears

out of nowhere.

I mean, things like this

just don't happen.

What do you mean by that?

I go to a gas station

to fill up

and right in front of me

is a cutlass, okay?

So the suspect hops back into

his vehicle at this point.

Mm-hmm.

And I followed him.

So why didn't you

just take him then?

And risk losing the girl?

Do you think

there was a chance

he would disclose her

whereabouts?

I mean...

All right.

So you trailed him.

- Yeah.

- Mm-hmm.

At what point

did you call for backup?

As soon as I was sure

it was him.

On the ground now!

Get on the ground!

- It's cool, man. I didn't do anything.

- Get on your knees.

On the ground, now!

- Just calm down.

- On the ground.

It's all cool, all right?

Hands behind your head.

Take it easy, man.

Hey, man!

I'm not resisting.

Just chill the f*** out!

- Where is she?

- Where is who?

- Where's the girl?

- I don't know anything about...

Tell me where

the girl is right now.

I said I don't know anything

about any girl!

Tell me where she is!

- Where is she?

- She's over there.

At what point

did he draw his gun?

He spotted me

as soon as I moved in,

and then he fired off
