same symbols left behind.

And more!

He leaves trophies, barb.

Barb (on phone): Honey, I think

this story's getting to you.

We can work with what we've got.

It's plenty.

She could've slipped or drowned.

set his kid after me!

They want me

out of that f*ck' house.

You need to come home!

Why aren't you

all over this sh*t?

No.

No, something else

is going on here.

the picture?

And now that we have time

to really do this thing right,

You wanna pack it in?

I'm telling you I am so close

To getting to the bottom

of this thing.

Tell me what I'm missing, barb,

I'm at a f*cking loss here.

Barb (on phone):

Come home, farid.

I need to stay.

Okay?

I need to clear this guy's name.
