Woman Thou Art Loosed: On the 7th Day Page #4

I don't give a damn about your budget.

Mayor, the FBI should have been involved

if there's a serial killer

running around down here.

We're doing

everything we can, David.

It is because of me and my friends

that you even got elected.

Expect a call from me

every hour, on the hour.

Professor Ames?

I want you and your wife

to come down to the station now.

- Why?

- I wanna polygraph you.

If you're insinuating we had anything to

do with this, you're wasting...

You're not suspects.

It's formality.

We just want our daughter back.

Do you currently reside

at 100 Chevelry Avenue?

Yes.

Is your daughter's name Mikayla Ames?

Yes.

Are you a real estate agent by trade?

Yes.

Is your name Kari Ames?

Yes.

Kari, can I do anything for you?

David, who are these people?

Just my colleagues.

Let's just get through this.

Go on upstairs.

Hey, how you holding up?

- It's a nightmare.

- Have you eaten?

No, I've not.

We have take-out.

You should eat something.

I need you to take a look at this flyer

before we make copies.

It's just a mild sedative.

Come on, Les...

Oh, come on, David. Give it to her.

It'll calm her down. Go ahead.

It's a nightmare.

Go ahead.

Kari, Les just gave me

these sleeping pills.

It'll help...

Help you sleep a little bit.

I don't wanna sleep!

And I won't take no damn sleeping pills.

Mikayla!

All right, the sheriff

says let's call it.

That's it for the night.

We'll come back tomorrow.

This is a woman's story

so I need you to...

I wish these reporters

would leave us alone.

Every little girl that MK abducted

was found dead on the sixth day.

Why wouldn't the police tell us that?

Don't answer that.

Don't answer it, David.

It's Detective Barrick. I got it.

Please...

Please don't tell me my child is...

As far as we know, your

daughter's still alive.

Do you mind if my tech starts

work on your phone?

Oh, no. Here. Come on.

- Why didn't you tell us?

- Tell you what?

That Mikayla has five days left.

Well, I didn't want you to

worry any more than necessary.

Oh, you didn't want me to worry.

What are you doing here?

Why are you here?

Why aren't you out there looking for her?

Detective? I'm sorry.

We haven't slept much around here.

You know what? Don't make apologies

for me, David. Don't do that.

May I speak with you privately?

You know what?

Whatever you have to say,

you can say in front of my husband.

I just wanted to be respectful.

Well, get to the point. How about that?

Mrs. Ames, do you know anyone who

may have a grudge against you?

Do you think someone we know

might've taken Mikayla?

Someone from Baton Rouge.

Kari, what's she talking about?

What's going on?

Kari?
