The Big Sky (2020–…): Season 3, Episode 3 - A Brief History of Crime - full transcript

While investigating a scamming operation with Beau, Jenny discovers a connection to the crime that sends her reeling. Cassie and Denise run into a strange man on the side of the road who may just lead them down a new path.

- Do we have a problem?
- He fell.

- He fell?
- Yep. That's him.

He seemed interested
in Deadman's Drop.

The decommissioned trail
off the Basin Trailhead?

- What do we got here?
- Multiple sets of footprints.

Somebody's water bottle.

It looks like they've
been a lot of places.

Kinda like our backpacker.

- Tonya and Donno are criminals.
- I heard they went legit.

Tonya worked for a drug
cartel. Legit, my ass!

- Paige?
- Hey.



What are you doing in
Paige and Luke's tent?

They all look alike.

- Face it. We're lost.
- What about the money?

The money won't mean a
thing if we die out here.

Oh, my God. Relax.

Good luck waiting for
Mommy to come find you.

Shut up!

Touch me like
that again, I'll kill you.

We didn't find Paige
and Luke last night.

Why don't we all go out
and look for them, too?

Any progress
on the backpacker?

Yeah. And there's
this old case...

This girl found 20 years ago

in the same place with
her heart cut out.



I'm sorry. What? Emily's
up in those woods.

Emily? Hey!

Stop! Don't come any closer!

Come back!

Wait! I just want to talk!

Let go of me!

Easy, easy.

You're okay. What happened?

It was Luke.

He's right behind
me. I saw blood.

Okay, slow down. I got ya.

You're gonna be okay.

Hey. Emily.

- Easy, cowboy.
- Stay away from me!

I was just trying to
find my way back to camp.

I-I fell and cut my head.

- Where's Paige?
- I don't know.

- She's not with you?
- No.

You need to see
about those cuts,

and then we can figure this out.

- Let's go.
- Okay.

It's okay. I'm
right here with you.

I totally understand
your frustration,

but there's nothing
more we can do tonight.

- Yes, there is. I can go.
- You can't do that.

Oh, my God, guys.

Oh, my, G... We've
been worried sick!

Are you okay?

We need a first aid kit.

First aid, pretty please.

- Where's Paige?
- I don't know.

What the hell ya
mean, you don't know?

Hon, let him explain.

At first, we sorta got lost

and then we got into a
fight worse than usual,

and she said she
wanted to go home.

- That was the last I saw of her.
- Go home?

Yeah, she said she never
wanted to see me again.

How did you get those cuts?

Well, after we fought, we
saw a light in the woods.

Light? What, like a...
Like a flashlight?

Maybe?

I thought it was someone
looking for us, but...

Paige ran after it
and then I chased her,

and I must have
fell and hit my head

'cause it's all a
bit hazy after that.

When I woke up she was
gone, and I had this.

- Has anyone checked the tent?
- That's a good idea.

I'll go do that right now.

Get 'em some blankets, will ya?

- Thank you.
- She went home, huh?

Just like that?

Yeah, that's what she said.

You know, when she makes
up her mind, it's...

I can't believe she
just left you out there.

Yeah.

If Emily hadn't found me...

You saved me. Thank you.

That's pretty
sweet and all,

but I'm having a hard time
piecing all this together.

Well, he's not lying.
Paige's stuff is gone.

She must have snuck
in, grabbed her things,

and high-tailed it back to town.

You think she's gonna
make it back okay?

It's only a couple of miles
on clearly marked trails.

Shoot, we walked that
together a couple of days ago.

If she wanted to be gone,

I mean, nobody's
a prisoner here.

I'll call the ranger station,

have them look for
Paige at the put-out.

Well, I guess there's nothing
more we can do tonight

except get a good night's sleep.

Then we'll start
over in the morning.

Ladies, would y'all
please take care of Luke?

Take him back to his tent.

Thank y'all very
much. Feel better.

Something else you
want to tell me?

Emily was pretty shook up.

Well, of course she
was, the poor thing.

Yeah, well, I'm gonna take
another look where I found him.

All righty, then. But
you heard his story.

I did.

Just something I gotta do.

Oh, my gosh.

What a day.

You think the kid's
telling the truth?

You don't?

Well, something just
doesn't sit right with me.

Her stuff was gone,
you heard what he said.

Well, how do we know he
didn't do something to her?

N-Now, Buck, don't go there.

Last thing we need
is the guests up in a lather.

We're gonna make sure
that girl is safe

'cause that's what
we do, damn it.

Well, I'm gonna
keep an eye on Luke.

You do that.

In the meantime, make
yourself useful, okay?

All right.

I sure hope he's
telling the truth.

Me, too.

This is it.

Sure we don't
wanna call first?

Neighbor said he saw a body.

Yeah, no, I get that.

I just wanna know whose
fence I'm hopping.

The Mooney brothers,
Gil and Ivan.

They used to own
half this valley.

- Now just this.
- Okay, well, great.

So can we go up to the house
and ask to look around?

This is Montana, likely to
meet a rifle or a pack of dogs.

Yeah, well, same in
Texas, but, you know,

at least there we
still observe manners.

We'll give you an iced tea and
then shoot you for trespassing.

Thank you.

But hey, what do I know?

You could always
go back to Houston.

Ah. Kidding me?

You'd miss me too much.

I would?

Yeah, I think deep
down, just a little bit.

- Hm.
- Besides, I can't leave.

I gotta stay here
for my daughter.

Do you ever talk about
your daughter with Cassie?

Okay, I see where this is going.

Let's just keep it
professional, Hoyt, for now

and, uh, you know,
focus on the job.

Finally found a
way to shut you up.

Okay, no, no, no. It's not that
I don't wanna talk about it.

- Uh-huh.
- It's just that, you know,

guys, we gotta have, uh...

- Yep, yeah.
- Uh, boundaries.

Boundaries. Keep digging.

Whoa.

One dead body.
Happy Monday, Hoyt.

Somebody
caved his head in.

Drag marks. The
body was moved.

Anything from the truck?

I'd be in my rights
shooting you.

You know I'm with the
Sheriff's Department, Mooney.

Put the rifle down.
Let's talk about this.

Still in my rights.
You're trespassing.

- I told you so.
- Yeah, we should have called.

Yeah, you are correct, sir.

Listen, I'm gonna
get up nice and slow.

We're gonna talk about this.

This is not Texas.
He will shoot you.

No, he won't.

Nice and slow. Here we go.

Cover me.

Get back down.

No.

- What?
- I said no.

See, this is the part where
you put your weapon down,

I'm gonna put mine away, and
we're gonna talk about this.

This is my land!

That body is my brother!

It's Gil.

Did you kill him?

No.

Easy, easy. Hey, I had to ask.

Okay, let's take this
down a few notches.

Tell us what happened
with your brother.

I told him to listen to me
and be careful, but did he?

No. He did not.

And now...

He was just trying
to save the ranch.

Lower your weapon, Ivan.

Let's talk about this.

Come on, Ivan.

Okay.

So, how'd you find
the missing hiker's car?

Fire Service contact.

Her crew found it.

Talk about a needle
in a haystack, right?

Whoo-hoo.

So...

It's locked.

I bet he has the
keys on the tire.

Okay, let me see.

Ah, got it.

Well, then there's that, huh?

Yep. Ha.

Look.

It's Mark's trip itinerary.

He has mileages

and stops for supplies
all planned out.

We can retrace his steps.

Preliminary
coroner's report said

that he died from a fall back...

Hit his head on a rock.

You two fight, maybe?

No. It was those
gold mine bastards.

These bastards have a name?

No, we got scammed.

They were hawking off a
stockpile of unrefined gold,

needed investors for a refinery.

Gil was never great with money,

and after the flood, we
were gonna lose the ranch.

They swindled us
and disappeared.

So your brother confronted them?

I told him to let it go.

But he wanted them dead.

Lured them out to the ranch.

They must have got to him first.

What was the company called?

Starlight Mining.

A husband and wife team?

A blond woman?

No, it was just
some guy and his sidekick.

Can you help me?

We'll certainly do what we can.

In the meantime, we're
just gonna need you

to sit tight, okay?

I'll check his alibi.

I need to look into something.

Good morning. How
did you sleep?

Um... okay.

What are you working on?

I'm not buying Luke's story.

Why not?

They had a fight, and she
left. Happens.

So he gets completely lost,

but Paige somehow finds
her way back to camp,

packs all her bags
without anyone seeing her,

and then hikes all
the way back to town?

Well, it's not that farfetched
that she wanted to leave.

I mean, he was a bit of an ass.

You know, he keeps telling
everyone that I saved him,

but when I saw him out
there, he didn't look saved.

He just looked, I don't know,
like, scared or something.

I don't know what you saw, so...

I saw you in their tent.

Yes, and I told you it
was an honest mistake.

All of these tents look
alike from the outside.

Not everything is a mystery.

Avery! Come on.

It's not like there's a
million tents out there.

You must have known that
that was Paige and Luke's.

- Why were you really in there?
- I told you.

Fine.

But if you're hiding
something, I'm gonna find out.

Where you off to?

I lost my knife in
the woods last night,

so I have to go look for it.

No, no, you are not
wandering off on your own.

That knife is very
important to me.

I sleep with it under my pillow.

My father gave it to me.

Look, Emily.

I promised your mother that
I would look after you.

Fine.

But I can look after myself.

Hey, I, uh... I cut Ivan loose.

Turns out, he was
telling the truth.

He wasn't there
when Gil was killed.

He's still pretty upset, though.

I would be, too. He
just lost his brother.

- Mm-hmm.
- You guys got anything?

Been looking into
Starlight Mining.

We need to show you something.

Yeah.

Guy got arrested three
months ago in Idaho

for aggravated assault,
name's Harold Gardiner.

The witness statement is
eerily similar to Ivan's.

Victim got fleeced by a
company called StarBright.

Starlight, StarBright.

Somebody's got a thing
for nursery rhymes.

Okay, well, if this is
our guy, let's go get him.

There's more.

She was arrested with him.

Is this the woman you
were talking about earlier?

You know her?

She's my mother.

All right. Yeah,
thanks for checking.

So that was
the trading post.

Apparently Mark had a resupply
package waiting for him.

- Never picked it up.
- Hm. Well, get this.

I just heard from Mark's family.

They said that he e-mailed
them an update a few hours ago

that he's in Logan's Pass.

- What?
- Mm-hmm.

That his service is spotty,
that he misses them,

and he'll see them soon.

Logan's Pass puts
him miles off course.

Yeah, well, maybe that's why
he skipped the trading post?

Mm... No, something
doesn't fit.

He e-mailed that from his phone?

Yeah, his mom said
he's not an e-mailer,

that he would have
called or texted.

So she asked us to check it out.

Doesn't make sense.

So are we not gonna address
the fact that your mom

is a career criminal?

It's complicated.

I bet.

We haven't spoken in years.

Last I heard, she was grifting
her way through Idaho.

The gold mining scam
used to be her thing.

Her and her sap of the month.

So, when I heard that
name, I had a feeling.

And you think she's involved
with Gil Mooney's murder?

Murder would be a stretch,

but her fingerprints
are all over the setup.

And you're sure it's this motel?

If she's in town.

She has an arrangement
with the manager.

Really?

All right, so what's the plan?

We talk to her,
see what she knows?

Just don't let her charm you.

You can't trust
anything she says.

All right.

Oh, Jenny.

Hi, Mom.

Let me get a good
look at you. Wha...

Oh.

Still wearing men's
T-shirts, I see.

But just as beautiful as ever.

Aww.

No hug? All right.

Oh, well. How 'bout
you?

Sheriff Beau Arlen, ma'am.

I told you to keep
your grift out of Montana.

I know you scammed
the Mooney brothers.

Starlight Mining.

It's clever how you
change the name...

Light Star, StarBright.

As much as I know that it
would bring you great joy

to arrest me, I...

I don't know what
you're talking about.

Well, let me jog your memory.

Gil Mooney. We found him
with his head bashed in.

That's awful.

We know you've been running
this gold mine scam out of Idaho

with a man named
Harold Gardiner.

Whoops. You got me.

But that's... that's old news.

That's fake news. Whatever.

Jenny, I'm on the
straight and narrow now.

You always have been
a very good liar.

- People can change.
- So what,

it's just a coincidence
that you show up

at the same time as Harold?

- You're lying.
- I'm not.

Yes, you are!

You're doing that
thing with your hair.

Why are you in town, Mom?

Okay, I'm here to find Harold.

- Told you. Oh, my God.
- And why is that?

Because he stole from me.

He took my life
savings, everything,

after I showed him the ropes.

The gold mining grift.

Listen, a girl's gotta eat.

Oh, my God. She's
still scamming people.

Okay, time out.

If Harold is here doing
this grift, as you call it,

then would you know
where to find him?

I might know where to look.

Okay. Well, seems to me like
we have a mutual interest.

- We sure do.
- No, no, no, no.

I know what you're
thinking. I don't trust her.

I don't trust you, either.

But Mr. Sheriff
here, he's right.

We want the same thing.

Do you know where
Harold is or not?

A simple question.

If I did, I'd have
my money back.

But what I can do is
narrow the search.

What do you mean?

Well, he'll be hunting
for his next mark,

somebody desperate
for a quick payout.

And we always looked
in the same places,

but you're gonna have
to play his game.

We're gonna have
to go under cover.

Which I hear you have
quite the talent for.

- Hi, Mama.
- Are you alone?

Well, how else would I be?

You see?

It's just me and my thoughts
and... and my projects.

I have a girl that's gone
missing from one of our trips.

Have you seen her?

Mama, please, please,
stop touching my things.

Do not do that again.

Why?

Are you gonna hit
your own mother?

I'm all you've got, Walt.

Now, have you seen this girl?

No.

What, did something
happen to her?

I don't know. But if
they come looking,

it's not gonna be
good for both of us.

- Do you understand that?
- Yes.

Now the backpacker
from Deadman's Drop,

I need you to move
him far away from here

so he will never be found.

I didn't do anything.

You should know
it doesn't matter.

Haven't I always kept you safe?

So you need to listen to
me and do as I say, okay?

Just me and you, Walt.

Just me and you. Come here.

That's a good boy.

Do you love an apple?

So, if I get an
early jump tomorrow,

I could be home by nightfall.

Are you sure you want to come?

Well, I just don't
want you to be skulking

around the woods
all by yourself.

And besides, I could
really use the vitamin D.

- Oh.
- Hey-hey!

Another dish. Still
cooking for a grown man.

Another home-cooked home run.

Pumpkin enchiladas.

Sounds weird. Totally worked.

Well,
sweet and salty

never
fails.

Wow. Sh...

Did she just call me salty?

What, are you, uh,
summiting? What's happening?

Uh, Denise and I are
hitting the trails

at first light tomorrow.

- We got a hunch.
- Well, I know how that goes.

This that backpacker thing?

Yeah. You wanna come?

No, can't. Working a
murder at the Mooney Ranch.

And Jenny's mom is involved.

Wait. Gigi's back?

Yeah, her name popped in a case.

I guess she worked
with the suspect,

so it's gonna be a fun
and slightly bumpy ride.

Yeah. Is Jenny okay?

Okay is not the
word I would use.

Don't tell her I
said that, though,

'cause... you
know how she gets.

Yes, yes, I do.

Listen, uh, my daughter
is camping in those woods.

If you get up there and
you get some bad juju

about this whole
backpacker thing,

I want to be the first to know.

Beau, of course. It's
probably nothing.

Yeah, it's nothing
until it ain't.

Just a little advice...
Give her some space.

You don't need to
go back up there.

Okay. All right.

You're a peach.

- Bye.
- You guys be careful.

Did you just put
butter in your coffee?

Oh, you caught me.

It's my little secret
to a lasting energy.

- Waistline be damned.
- Right.

What can I do for
you, sweetheart?

Uh, I wanted to ask if I could
maybe use your SAT phone.

'Cause I still don't
have any service,

and I want to call my dad.

What for, hon?

I just thought that he could
maybe check in on Paige,

just, like, make sure that
she actually got home okay.

You don't need to worry
your dad about that.

I got the rangers on it.

Plus, I've offered her a full
refund for all her troubles.

But to leave like that...

I don't know. Isn't
that, like, strange?

You know, people come here

for all different
kinds of reasons.

Some to leave their past behind,

and others to fix
their problems,

and some to find a new life.

Now, you can quote me on that
in your podcast if you want to.

Okay.

That's enough doom and gloom.

Everything's gonna
be just dandy, okay?

- Okay.
- Okay.

All right.

That's more like it.

Were you expecting
that cute sheriff?

What are
you doing here, Mom?

I brought a peace offering.

I'm making you dump cake.

Pineapple.

Your favorite.

Come on.

It's the best I can do.

I already ate.

Look, I could go,

or you could let me make
this stupid cake for you

and wipe the slate clean.

Just for tonight.

How would we do that?

- You got any wine?
- Nope.

Good.

'Cause I brought
that, too.

Jenny Bear, give me a chance.

- This is...
- Kinda disgusting.

Yeah, but...
But good disgusting.

Truth is, I don't think it
was ever really your favorite.

I just convinced you it was,
because I didn't have the money

to buy you a fancy
birthday cake,

and... and I wanted you to feel

like you were getting
something special.

Can we please not
talk about this?

Why not? It wasn't all bad.

Remember our last road trip
to Vegas before Daddy left?

And I spent all our
traveler's checks on roulette.

And I thought he
was gonna kill me.

And you... you won
it all back for us.

My good luck charm.

Why did you come back?

Because Harold stole
from me, Jenny.

The money?

That's it?

That's the only reason
you came back here?

Well, you know the saying...

Hell hath no fury
like a woman scorched.

Scorned, Mom. Scorned.

Whatever.

Well, I guess I can't blame you.

Speaking of scorched,
any news on Harold?

Yeah.

Found a notice for
StarNight Mining

at the Boot Heel Bar.

- Think it's him?
- I know it is.

It's him.

Well, we've got
a greet tomorrow.

We're gonna wash this guy out.

Just be careful, Jenny.

That's rich, coming
from you, Mom.

- What's in this for you?
- I told you.

Revenge.

And... And helping my daughter.

And I don't mind face time
with that cute sheriff.

Mm.

I like them pretty and young.

- Mm.
- Keeps a pep in my step.

He's not that cute.

$30,000 cash, compliments
of the county.

Which one of you is
gonna sign for this?

Anything happens to this,
it's a lot of paychecks.

Okay, so why do
we need this cash?

Because Harold would
demand to see it.

She's right.

As soon as we lure him out,
we're slapping cuffs on him.

Honey and vinegar,
Hoyt. Honey and vinegar.

We get him talking, we
trick him into a confession.

It's gonna be easier if he
feels like he's in control.

It's the cash. I get it.

What do you wanna do? Do you
wanna get into character, or...

Sure.

- We're married.
- What?

We're excited about
the investment opportunity.

We get him talking,
he takes the cash,

and it's a takedown,
nice and clean.

Let's get you
changed and wired up.

I'll be a block
away to back you up.

All right.

Don't forget to
smile, Jenny Bear.

It tricks your
body into thinking

that you're a happy person.

Nice, Mom. Thank
you for helping.

Well, you can thank
me by taking him down.

- All right, let's do it.
- Yep.

- Yep. Boom.
- Oh, no, no, no.

We're not doing this.

Whew!

Hello again, friend.

I brought you a present.

Hello, friend.

It's time we move on.

Upsy-daisy.

Dang it!

Thank you, honey.

Ah, hello, sir.

My husband and I are here
to meet with Mr. Gardiner.

Weapons.

Well, Montana's an open
carry state, my friend.

You don't get in until
I get your weapons.

- Honey.
- Careful.

I'll get you.

Yeah, I look forward to it.

- Guns.
- Right.

- There we go.
- There you go.

You too, missy.

- Oh.
- Or it's a pat down.

Your choice.

Okay. Um...

No problem.

But take good care
of it. It was a gift.

My daddy always said never to
leave the house unprotected.

She is
his only daughter.

Follow me.

As we discussed on the phone,

I've got a stockpile
of unrefined gold

that's not doing any good

to anyone just
sitting in barrels.

Your investment here is
gonna fund the refinery

that brings it all to life,

and you two are
looking at a 10% stake.

Oh!

- Wow.
- That is so exciting.

We are trying to
build our nest egg.

Ah, you know, the wedding
kinda tapped us out a bit.

You have any idea what a
life-sized ice sculpture

of George Strait
costs these days?

- My Lord and stars.
- Gosh golly, so expensive.

I can imagine.

Well, we are just excited
as hell to have the opportunity,

'cause we can imagine how
many other interested parties

there are to a deal like this.

You can say that again.

Any of them give
you any trouble?

Trouble? In what way?

Oh, I don't know.

Uh, any pushback on
any of the terms?

Plenty of shady characters
out there, am I right?

No. N-Not that I can think of.

So, a lot of happy
campers, then?

A lot of happy campers.

- Great.
- Great.

I forget. H-How did
you two find me again?

- Facebook friend.
- Casino.

Honey.

- Who's right?
- Both of us, actually.

See, her... her... Her
friend from Facebook

had a birthday party at
Lucky LuAnn's casino.

At Lucky LuAnn's casino.

It was... It was a night
that I will never remember.

Oh! I will never forget.

Well, I'm just saying...
Why would someone in distress

send a selfie to their parents?

It just doesn't make any sense.

I know.

None of it makes sense.

I hope we
figure something out.

Yeah.

Me, too.

Looks like this guy
needs some help.

Uh-huh.

Hey.

Engine trouble?

Um, yeah.

I-I got it handled.

Mm, doesn't look like it.
I can give you a hand.

No.

I
mean, thank you,

but, uh, I can handle it.

You been hiking? You're
pretty mucked up.

- That's a lot of mud.
- Sure.

It's really smoking.

I'm good with cars.
Let me just help you.

I said I can handle it.

Okay.

What's in the truck?

Yo, Cass! You okay?

Yeah.

Okay, well, I think
we should get going.

Okay.

Have a nice day.

Yeah, you, too.

Here. I got you.

Thanks.

Wouldn't want you
to get hurt again.

You look like a
natural out here.

Although, you'd probably
look great doing anything.

- You seeing that, too?
- So gross.

He works fast,
I'll give him that.

- Paige just barely left camp.
- Yeah, if she left camp.

Just... never mind. I know
that that sounds crazy.

I don't think it
sounds so crazy.

I don't trust Luke.
He seems shifty.

He is, right? Because
nobody is listening to me.

Hey. What are you
guys talking about?

- Nothing.
- Doesn't seem like nothing.

Just making
conversation, that's all.

Hmm. Well, maybe you should
just focus on the horses, yes?

- Avery.
- What?

It's cool. Relax.

See you on the trail horses.

Are you kidding me?

What, I can't talk
to people now?

No. Wait, wait. P-Please,
wait. Just... just...

Please, let's just...
Let's just reset.

Sorry if I upset you, but if
something's important to you,

then it's important to me.

What does that mean?

First and foremost, we
find your father's knife.

And Paige?

Uh, well, if that's
still bugging you,

then, uh, we get to the
bottom of that, too.

You and me.

Okay.

Okay.

$26,000, $28,000. $30,000.

Looks like
we're good to go.

The money's all here.
Contracts are signed.

You two are
officially investors.

Well, this is fantastic.

There is just one more thing.

What's that?

You're under arrest.

Hey!

Ohh!

Sit your
ass back down!

Easy, big boy. I
told you I'd get ya.

- We're good?
- Yeah, we're good.

Aah!

You're gonna pay.

Ivan, no!

Hoyt, take care of him!

I got Ivan.

Come on! Hey!

Stop!

Harold! Stop!

I can't
go back to jail.

- Stop!
- Let me go!

He has to pay for this!

You've got
nowhere else to go!

Ow!

Oh, ow.

Listen to me, he will pay.

Hey! You want to go to jail
for the rest of your life

for this bastard, huh?

You think your brother
would want that?

Trust me, Gil does
not want that.

Okay?

Okay. Okay.

Nowhere for you to
run now. It's over.

I kept trying to figure
out where I knew you from.

Now I know. You're
her daughter.

Gigi put you up to
this, didn't she?

Save your breath.

What's so funny?

Gigi always comes out
on top, doesn't she?

Hey.

You can't just leave me here!

No, no, no, no!

No! Damn!

Whoa! What happened?

The money's gone.

Wait, what? How?

My mother.

She played us.

Oh, Hoyt, I'm so sorry.

I can't believe I
let this happen.

Don't worry. We'll find her.

She's gone.

She hasn't changed.

Hey, Mama.

I assume it's handled.

It is.

Good.

Sort of.

What do you mean, sort of?

I was careful, I promise.

What happened?

Someone saw me. I was
gonna take care of her,

too, but someone else
was in the car...

Who was it? Who saw you?

Her friend called her Cassie.

You are such a disappointment.

You have to do better.

There it is.

Yep. This is the exact location
Mark e-mailed his selfie from.

Okay.

What do you think?

Think that matches Mark's
perspective, right?

Looks right to me.

Hold on.

Look at the mountains.

Wait a minute.

Mark's photo has
snow on the peaks.

Right, but there isn't any.

Wait, so did it
all just melt overnight?

Exactly. That
would take weeks.

There's no way he was here.

Okay, so then why would he send
an old picture to his parents?

He wouldn't.

So, if he didn't, then who did?

- And why?
- Right.

- We need to find him.
- Yeah.

- Oh.
- Get over here.

Hi, there.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
