“Then we finally tracked down her phone, only to find it abandoned on a park bench in an area we aren’t sure she’s ever visited, with multiple eyewitness reports claiming that someone resembling her daughter placed it there,” Greene elaborated, making abundantly clear what happened in the previous episode and hinting at where the show is headed. “How can this be?”
At press time, Officer Greene was asking his partner to just help him make sure he has everything straight after each new discovery.
