[ DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS ]

Man: WHERE ARE THE GUNSHOTS
COMING FROM?

OVER HERE.
EVERYBODY RAN THIS WAY.

THE SUSPECT IS GOING WEST
THROUGH THE MALL

BY THE CAROUSEL.

SUBJECT HAS GOT A BALL CAP ON,
SOME KIND OF VEST.

THIS WAS THE VOICEMAIL I LEFT MY
MOM THE NIGHT OF THE SHOOTING.

SHE HAD TEXTED ME AND SAID,
"I JUST CAN'T DO IT ANYMORE."

HE WAS...
SPECIFIC.

HE PAID ATTENTION,
AND THAT'S JUST CREEPY.

[ CHATTER ]

I STARTED WORKING AT
THE MUSEUM MARCH OF 2014.

LOOK AT THAT.

ANDREA STARTED WORKING AT
THE MUSEUM IN NOVEMBER OF 2014.

I LOVE WHAT YOU'VE DONE
WITH HIS HAT AND HIS BEARD.

MY FIRST IMPRESSION OF ANDREA
WAS HER AMAZING POSITIVITY.

NICE, VERY NICE.

SHE WAS CALLED A "PLAYOLOGIST,"
IS WHAT IT'S CALLED.

SHE COULD GO AND PLAY WITH THE
KIDS IN THE DIFFERENT CENTERS.

SHE LOVED WORKING
WITH THE KIDS.

NOW, I THINK IT'S TIME
FOR A STORY.

[ CHEERING ]

Fridrich:
KIDS WERE JUST DRAWN TO HER,



WITH THAT WONDERFUL
PERSONALITY,

BEING NICE TO EVERYONE,
BEING WILLING

TO JUST START A GAME
WITH SOMEONE

OR PUT ON A PLAY.

IT WAS ABSOLUTELY
ANYTHING.

Farrington: ANDREA'S PERSONALITY
WAS VERY BUBBLY.

SHE WAS FRIENDLY, ALWAYS HAD
A SMILE ON HER FACE, LAUGHED.

NOW, THE SHOW IS OVER
FOR TODAY, FOLKS,

BUT TOMORROW, WE GET
TO DRESS AS PIRATES.

[ CHEERING ]

Fridrich: THE MUSEUM OWNED
THE GUEST-WELCOME CENTER,

AND THAT WAS LOCATED
KIND OF

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MALL
NEAR THE FOOD COURT.

IT WAS KIND OF AN AREA
JUST TO ASK QUESTIONS

ABOUT THE MALL
AND THE TOWN.

YOU CAN FIND THE FOOD COURT
RIGHT OVER THERE.

ANDREA WORKED QUITE FREQUENTLY
AT THE GUEST-WELCOME CENTER,

EVEN MORE SO THAN
INSIDE THE MUSEUM.

THE BATHROOM? UP THAT ESCALATOR
TO THE RIGHT.

YOU CAN'T MISS IT.

A TYPICAL DAY AT
THE GUEST-WELCOME CENTER

WOULD BE RENTING OUT
WHEELCHAIRS,

KEEPING IN TOUCH
WITH MALL SECURITY,

AND THEN, ALSO, GIVING
CUSTOMERS TIPS ON, LIKE,

WHERE TO EAT
OR WHERE TO GO.

Readshaw: WHEN ANDREA
WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL,

SHE HAD AN OVERBITE
AND AN ELONGATED JAW.

A LOT OF PEOPLE
MADE FUN OF HER FOR THAT.

SHE WAS TEASED
ALL THE TIME.

WE LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN,
SO EVERYBODY KNOWS EVERYBODY,

AND THEY WOULD
CALL HER NAMES.

"WHY DO YOU HAVE TO LOOK
LIKE THAT? YOU'RE UGLY."

SHE WORKED AT A CONVENIENCE
STORE IN OUR TOWN,

AND AN OLDER GENTLEMAN
HAD COME IN THERE,

AND HE GOES, "WHY IS
YOUR FACE LIKE THAT?"

THIS IMAGE
IS ANDREA'S

BEFORE-AND-AFTER
SURGERY PICTURES.

IT CHANGED
HER LIFE.

IT CHANGED SO MANY THINGS
ABOUT HER LIFE,

AND IT GAVE HER
SUCH CONFIDENCE.

SHE FELT MORE SECURE
IN THE FACT

THAT SHE COULD
SPEAK HER OPINION,

AND IT ACTUALLY
BE SOMETHING

THAT SOMEONE
NEEDED TO LISTEN TO.

CINEMA COMPLEX IS ON
THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MALL.

WALK STRAIGHT THAT WAY.

Readhsaw: AFTER HER JAW SURGERY,
THE AMOUNT OF ATTENTION

SHE GOT FROM OTHER PEOPLE
DEFINITELY INCREASED,

NOT ONLY JUST PEOPLE
FROM AROUND HOME

AND PEOPLE THAT HAD KNOWN HER
PRIOR TO THE SURGERY,

BUT ALSO FROM GUYS,
AS WELL.

HEY.

YOU NEW?

I'M ALEX.

ALEX WAS A SECURITY OFFICER
AT THE MALL.

HE WOULD WALK KIND OF
AROUND EVERYWHERE,

AND HE ALWAYS STOPPED BY
TO SOCIALIZE WITH ANDREA.

HI.
I'M ANDREA.

YEAH.
YEP.

I'M NEW -- STARTED LAST WEEK
AT THE MUSEUM.

MY INITIAL THOUGHTS ABOUT ALEX
WERE THAT, IT WASN'T A BIG DEAL.

I HAVE LOTS OF
GUY FRIENDS MYSELF,

SO I JUST THOUGHT,
AT FIRST,

THAT HE WAS JUST ANOTHER
FRIEND OF ANDREA'S,

SOMEONE THAT HELPED HER
GET THROUGH THE WORKDAY.

LET ME GIVE YOU
MY NUMBER,

YOU KNOW,
FOR SECURITY REASONS.

IT HELPS IF YOU CAN CALL
AND REPORT ANYTHING SUSPICIOUS.

OH. SURE. OKAY.

WELL, I'LL ABSOLUTELY CALL
IF I SEE ANYTHING.

SEEING YOU'RE NEW AND ALL,
COULD I GET YOUR NUMBER...

FOR WHEN WE
NEED YOUR HELP?

IT WAS PRETTY COMMON
FOR A PLAYOLOGIST

TO GIVE OUT THEIR NUMBER
TO A SECURITY GUARD,

AND THEN,
THEY CAN HELP THEM

WITH ANYTHING
THAT MAY BE GOING ON.

SO, THAT WASN'T
STRANGE TO ME.

YEAH.
SURE.

I -- I TOTALLY GET IT.
IT MAKES COMPLETE SENSE.

HERE.

I GOT TO BE GOING.

I'LL SEE YOU AROUND,
ANDREA.

SEE YOU, ALEX.

- HEY.
- HEY.

ROB AND ANDREA WENT TO
THE SAME HIGH SCHOOL,

AND THEN,
THEY STARTED DATING,

AND THEN, THEY MOVED IN TOGETHER
VERY QUICKLY AFTER THAT.

BEFORE THE SURGERY,
ANDREA AND ROB'S RELATIONSHIP

WAS REALLY GREAT.

THEY BOTH SEEMED
VERY HAPPY TOGETHER.

AFTER THE SURGERY, SHE WAS
GETTING ALL THIS NEW ATTENTION

THAT SHE HADN'T
HAD BEFORE,

AND I THINK THAT KIND OF
MADE ROB INSECURE,

A LITTLE BIT,
ABOUT THEIR RELATIONSHIP.

I THINK THAT STARTED
TO MAKE THINGS

A LITTLE MORE
DIFFICULT FOR THEM.

HE KIND OF BECAME
A LITTLE MORE WORRIED

ABOUT WHO SHE WAS SPENDING
HER TIME WITH AND WHERE SHE WAS.

[ PHONE CHIMES ]

A LOT OF THE TEXT MESSAGES
THAT ALEX SENT TO HER,

HE WOULD TELL HER THAT
SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL,

THAT SHE WAS PRETTY,
JUST A LOT OF COMPLIMENTS.

SO, KIND OF GIVING HER
THAT ATTENTION.

HE WOULD CALL HER PET NAMES
LIKE "BABE" AND "BABY."

[ TEXT MESSAGE SENDS ]

WHO ARE YOU TEXTING?

NO ONE SPECIAL.

I THINK HEARING THOSE
COMPLIMENTS AFTER HER SURGERY

REALLY MADE HER FEEL LIKE
SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL.

WHO IS IT?

IT'S JUST A FRIEND, OKAY?

[ LAUGHS ]

♪♪

HOW ABOUT WE PAINT
SOME TREES IN THE BACKGROUND?

YEAH?

WHAT COLOR ARE YOU
GONNA PAINT THEM?

[ PHONE CHIMES ]

I DON'T THINK THAT THE TEXTING
BETWEEN ANDREA AND ALEX

WAS MEANT TO BE HARMFUL.

SHE LIKED THE ATTENTION.

SHE WAS JUST
A FLIRTATIOUS PERSON.

[ PHONE CHIMES ]

BUT THAT WAS THE DAY
THAT EVERYTHING CHANGED.

[ PHONE CHIMES ]

[ SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS ]

[ DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS ]

[ DISTANTLY ]
ARE YOU OKAY?

YEAH.

YEAH, YEAH.
ABSOLUTELY.

I'M GONNA GO HOME,
FINISH UP IN THE MORNING, OKAY?

[ NORMAL VOLUME ]
OKAY.

Fridrich: ANDREA AND
I WOULD TALK ABOUT

JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING --

GUY PROBLEMS,
IF I WAS HAVING A ROUGH DAY.

KNOWING ANDREA,
I KNOW SHE WOULD NOT WANT TO

BREAK UP ANY MARRIAGE.

YOU DIDN'T TELL ME
YOU WERE MARRIED.

HEY, ANDREA.YOU SHOULD HAVE SAID.

Readshaw:
I DID FEEL UPSET FOR HER

BECAUSE HE WAS ESSENTIALLY
LEADING HER ON,

AND YOU KNOW,
MAKING HER FEEL WANTED,

GIVING HER
THAT POSITIVE ATTENTION,

AND THEN, HITTING HER WITH THAT
BOMBSHELL THAT HE IS MARRIED

AND HE ALREADY HAS
THAT COMMITMENT

TO ANOTHER WOMAN.

ANDREA, LOOK. I CAN..."HEY, BABE. HEY, BEAUTIFUL."

WHAT IS GOING ON
WITH YOU?

I DIDN'T KNOW
HOW TO TELL YOU.

I WAS SO HAPPY
WITH HOW GOOD THIS IS,

I DIDN'T WANT TO
RUIN THINGS.

SHE WAS ANGRY
ABOUT THE SITUATION.

HE BUILT HER CONFIDENCE UP
ONLY TO, KIND OF, TEAR IT DOWN.

I THINK SHE WAS TOO
NON-CONFRONTATIONAL TO TELL HIM

THAT SHE WAS ANGRY
THAT HE DID THAT.

I'VE GOT TO GO.

ANDREA WAS, MAYBE,
HOPING THAT THEY WEREN'T MARRIED

OR THEY WEREN'T
STILL TOGETHER.

BY LOOKING AT HIS SOCIAL MEDIA,
SHE WAS HOPING TO UNCOVER

WHETHER OR NOT
HE WAS OR WASN'T MARRIED.

- HE LOOKS PRETTY MARRIED.
- UGH.

WHEN ME AND ANDREA
WERE LOOKING AT ALEX'S PAGE,

WE WERE KIND OF SURPRISED
AT WHAT WE SAW.

[ SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS ]

[ DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS ]

[ DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES ]

HE SHARED A LOT OF ARTICLES AND
STUFF ABOUT GUNS AND WEAPONS,

AND HAD A LOT OF PHOTOS
OF GUNS AND WEAPONS

THAT HE OWNED,
AS WELL.

I REALLY DIDN'T THINK THAT
HE WAS PROBABLY A GOOD GUY

TO BE HANGING AROUND,

ESPECIALLY THAT HE
WAS MARRIED

AND WAS INTERESTED
IN PURSUING

SOMETHING ROMANTIC
WITH HER.

[ PHONE CHIMES ]

YEAH, SO'S MINE.

HOW ABOUT WE WATCH SOME TV?

THE MORE THAT ANDREA
FOUND OUT ABOUT ALEX,

THE MORE UNCOMFORTABLE
SHE BECAME WITH HIM

AND THE IDEA OF EVEN
BEING FRIENDS WITH HIM.

Alex: HEY.

I'VE BEEN MARRIED
4 MONTHS.

IT'S NOT WORKING OUT.

I LIKE YOU.

WE HAVE FUN.

I WAS THINKING MAYBE, YOU KNOW,
SOMETIME IN THE FUTURE,

YOU AND ME...

YOU AND ME COULD BE
MORE THAN FRIENDS.

ANDREA HAD TOLD ME THAT ALEX HAD
TALKED TO HER ABOUT HIS WIFE,

AND THAT HE WAS NOT IN
A HAPPY MARRIAGE,

AND THAT HE HAD TALKED ABOUT
LEAVING HIS WIFE SEVERAL TIMES.

LOOK.
LET'S RESET.

YOU'RE MARRIED.

I'M IN A RELATIONSHIP, TOO.

LET'S JUST MOVE ON, OKAY?

ANDREA DIDN'T WANT
TO BE THAT PERSON.

SHE DIDN'T WANT TO BE KNOWN
AS THE PERSON

THAT BROKE UP
THEIR MARRIAGE.

SURE.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

FRIENDS?

SHE WAS VERY FRUSTRATED
WITH THAT, THAT...

"DON'T PUT ME
IN THIS POSITION,"

BASICALLY, IS HOW I FEEL
SHE WOULD HAVE FELT.

FRIENDS.

UGH.

HEY.
CUT IT OUT.

SEE YOU AROUND, BABE.

[ SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS ]

ON VALENTINE'S DAY,
ALEX HAD BOUGHT ANDREA FLOWERS.

SHE WAS KIND OF FEARFUL
ABOUT WHAT WAS GOING ON,

AND THAT HE WASN'T
REALLY GETTING THE HINT

THAT SHE WASN'T
INTERESTED.

AT THAT POINT, ANDREA WAS VERY
UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THE SITUATION

AND DEFINITELY WANTED ALEX
TO BACK OFF.

IT'S INAPPROPRIATE
FOR ALEX

TO HAVE BROUGHT ANDREA
FLOWERS AT WORK.

YOU KNOW,
THIS ISN'T A GOOD IDEA.

HE'S MARRIED.

I SAID, "THROW THEM AWAY.
DO NOT TAKE THEM HOME.

DON'T TAKE THEM HOME, BECAUSE
THAT'S JUST RUDE FOR ROB

TO SEE FLOWERS THAT ANOTHER GUY
GAVE TO HIS GIRLFRIEND."

[ CHATTER ]

HEY.

HEY.

BUT SHE DID
TAKE THEM HOME

BECAUSE SHE DIDN'T WANT TO THROW
THEM AWAY AT THE WELCOME CENTER

BECAUSE SHE DIDN'T
WANT ALEX TO SEE

THAT SHE HAD
THROWN THEM AWAY.

[ SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS ]

♪♪

WHO'S ALEX?

HE'S JUST SOME GUY
I WORK WITH.

I KNOW THAT ROB
WAS UPSET.

ANY MAN WOULD
KIND OF BE UPSET

IF ANOTHER MAN GAVE
THEIR GIRLFRIEND

OR WIFE
OR WHATEVER FLOWERS.

LOOK.
THEY'RE JUST FLOWERS.

IT'S NOTHING.

THEY'RE...

I SHOULDN'T HAVE
BROUGHT THEM HOME.

HE'S JUST SOME GUY.

DO YOU LOVE ME?

OF COURSE I DO.

ROB AND ANDREA,
THEY WERE KIND OF IN A RUT.

IT WAS A ROCKY TIME
AT THAT POINT.

♪♪

- OH, CASSIE.
- HEY, ANDY.

ANDREA'S SISTER LIKED TO VISIT
ANDREA AT THE MALL A LOT,

AND LIKE ME,
SHE LIKED TO SURPRISE HER.

"HEY. I'M IN TOWN.
CAN WE HANG OUT? CAN WE TALK?"

YOU OKAY?

YEAH. YEAH.

CASSIE COULD TELL ANDREA
NEEDED A CONFIDENCE BOOSTER,

AND I THINK SHE
SUGGESTED TO ANDREA

THAT, MAYBE, SHE SHOULD
JUST GO TO A SALON

AND HAVE SOMETHING DONE --
SOMETHING DIFFERENT.

I'M BACK ON
AT 2:30.

THERE'S A PLACE
RIGHT AROUND HERE.

LET'S GO.
- FABULOUS.

HEY, I'M GONNA TRY
THAT OUT FOR A BIT.

Farrington: ANDREA WENT
INTO THE SALON,

AND RIGHT OUTSIDE OF THERE
WERE MASSAGE CHAIRS.

SO, I WAS THINKING, LIKE, UM,
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE?

HE HAD BEEN WATCHING
ALL THIS TIME.

[ PHONE CHIMES ]

Readshaw:
AFTER EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED

WITH HIM FOLLOWING CASSIE,

I DEFINITELY THING THAT ANDREA
WAS STARTING TO THINK

THAT HE WAS CREEPY.

ANDREA WANTED TO
BACK AWAY FROM ALEX.

I MEAN, ONCE YOU KNOW
HE'S WATCHING YOU,

IT'S LIKE, YOU ALMOST
FEEL IT ALL THE TIME.

[ PHONE CHIMES ]

SHE WAS TRYING TO BACK AWAY
FROM HIM AT THAT POINT,

AND HE DID NOT LISTEN.

[ PHONE CHIMES ]

HE'S SCARING ME.

HE WON'T BACK OFF.

ANDREA TALKED TO ANOTHER
CO-WORKER OF ALEX'S

ABOUT HIM COMING UP

AND BOTHERING HER
AT THE WELCOME CENTER.

THANK YOU.

I JUST NEED HIM
TO STOP.

AND SO, THIS CO-WORKER OF ALEX'S
TOLD ALEX AND ANDREA

THAT THEY NEEDED TO STOP
TALKING TO EACH OTHER.

IT WAS AFFECTING THEIR JOBS,
AND IT NEEDED TO STOP.

ALEX GOT SPOKEN TO TWICE,
AT LEAST, TO LEAVE ANDREA ALONE.

ANDREA WAS RELIEVED
WHEN THEY TOLD HIM

TO NOT COME AROUND THERE.

IT DOESN'T MEAN HE DIDN'T,
BECAUSE HE DID.

HEY, BEAUTIFUL.

ALEX, YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED
TO PESTER ME AT WORK.

YOUR SUPERVISOR
IS WATCHING.

ON ONE DAY,
ALEX WENT TO THE WELCOME CENTER

AND TALKED TO
ANDREA BRIEFLY.

IT'S TOO BAD.

HEY, I'VE BEEN THINKING.

YOU GOT ANY NUDES ON
YOUR PHONE?

IF SHE DID, HE WANTED HER
TO SEND THEM TO HIM.

AND IF SHE DIDN'T,

HE WANTED HER TO TAKE SOME
AND SEND THEM TO HIM.

YOU'RE SICK.

HE DIDN'T LIKE
THAT ANSWER.

THAT'S A CRYING SHAME.

SHOW ME THE NUDES,
OR I'LL BLOW UP YOUR CAR.

HE SAID IT
LIKE HE WAS JOKING,

BUT SHE DIDN'T THINK
IT WAS A JOKE,

AND SHE DIDN'T
FIND IT FUNNY.

[ LAUGHS ]

I GOT YOU THERE,
DIDN'T I?

NO. I WOULDN'T DO A THING LIKE
THAT, NOW, WOULD I, BABE?

Readshaw: I WOULD INVITE
ANDREA AND ROB TO GO TO

ROB NEVER REALLY
WANTED TO GO.

I THINK THAT IT KIND OF
UPSET HER THAT ROB

DIDN'T WANT TO
GO OUT WITH US

JUST 'CAUSE
SHE WANTED HIM TO EXPLORE

AND MEET NEW PEOPLE,
AND THAT SORT OF THING.

SHE WAS FINDING
A LITTLE BIT OF INDEPENDENCE

BEING ABLE TO MAKE
HER OWN DECISIONS,

AND I THINK THIS WAS
THE BEGINNING OF HER

WANTING TO BE AWAY
FROM ROB,

TO SEE IF
SHE COULD DO IT.

SHE HAD TOLD ME THAT SHE REALLY
LOVED ROB AS A PERSON,

BUT SHE WASN'T
IN LOVE WITH HIM ANYMORE.

I DON'T KNOW.

ENDED UP BACK TOGETHER.

NO WAY.

THERE IS NO WAY
