Doug and Susan were waiting outside when Sam arrived. No press. Sam looked skyward gratefully and greeted the pair. Using Doug's key, they entered the...house.Nothing in the house appeared to Sam to be amiss. Emma's friends confirmed that all looked normal. Asking Doug and Susan to roam around, but not to disturb anything, Sam began in the bedroom, searching it thoroughly. Everything he saw conveyed an impression consistent with what he'd been told. It was the bedroom of an intelligent,. I tossed my clothes on the bed and went and grabbed my short black satin robe off of the bathroom door hook. I slipped it on and tied the sash, then headed back downstairs. So it was 10 p.m. I was pretty corked from drinking screwdrivers, as for my brother now. I was too corked to be sure how buzzed, he was, but I remember. The movie had just ended and couldn't find a cable remote. So I got up to go over to the television and get the spare remote.

I've done my part," he said."Does that mean you won't be there to help out tomorrow?" It depends on how tonight goes," he said, glancing adoringly at Paige.What did he mean by that?

I promise you we'll get her back." I tried to sound reassuring, and then I said, "Okay honey I'm going to hang up now and talk to Pat. Now you wait right there until Pat comes to get you. Okay? I love you." I love you too Sam. I tried Sam. I tried so hard..." She started crying.
