Nikolas: Did you check the rental car companies? The bus station? Well, Colleen couldn't have just vanished into thin air. Someone must've seen her get off that plane. Look, I don't -- I don't care if you have to take that photograph and -- and show it to every person in Denver! I -- I'm paying you to find my son!
Emily: That's not going to work.
Nikolas: Nothing is working. My son is missing and I have no idea how to find him.
Colleen: While I'm working today, I need you to be on your best behavior. Do you think you can do that for me? Hmm. Oh, of course you can. You're always such a good little boy. That's why everything has turned out so well. I have a good job in a new city, and it's all because of you. Hmm. And once we save up enough money, we'll move on and start our life together.
Nikolas sighs.
Emily: It's only been a few days, Nikolas. We're going to find them.
Nikolas: Well, not if we keep wasting our time here. We've been to every baby store in Denver, and no one has seen a woman matching Colleen's description in any of them.
Emily: Well, then we'll try another city. Look, Littleton and Aurora are both close. We'll just start there and work our way up to Boulder.
Nikolas: But we don't -- we don't even know if -- if Colleen stayed in Denver.
Emily: Well, the police said that her grandmother used to live here, right?
Nikolas: Right, but she -- she died years ago. There's no reason for her to come back here now.
Emily: Yeah, but Colleen knows the area. If she wants to start a new life with Spencer, it makes sense for her to come back to familiar ground.
Nikolas: Starting over isn't cheap.
Emily: Yeah.
Nikolas: It's going to take a lot of money for her to create a new life.
Emily: You did give her a pretty generous severance when she left.
Nikolas: Well, yeah, but generous for -- for one person. It's certainly not enough to support both her and Spencer for that long. Eventually, she'll have to go back to work.
Emily: Colleen's on the run with a baby. What kind of job could she possibly get?
Woman: Glad we didn't scare you off yesterday.
Colleen: Huh. I think it's going to work out well here for me and my son.
Woman: Well, I certainly hope so. You're doing a wonderful job, Sarah.
Colleen: Thank you. It won't be like this forever. As soon as I make enough money, I'm going to take you someplace new -- a place I've never been before, but I've researched it. I know the town and even the neighborhood I want. I'm going to buy a house with a big backyard for you to play in. We're going to have a good life together. I promise.
Emily: Colleen needs to find a job, but she can't risk leaving Spencer with a babysitter, so what does she do?
Nikolas: Find a place where she can take Spencer with her?
Emily: But that doesn't give her many options.
Nikolas: Well, all of Colleen's work experience is in childcare, right?
Emily: Mm-hmm.
Nikolas: Well, she could find another job as a nanny. You know?
Emily: What kind of a family is going to let their nanny bring their child to work every day?
Nikolas: Good point.
Emily: Okay -- unless she wasn't just working for one family.
Nikolas: What do you mean?
Emily: If Colleen got a job at a daycare, then it wouldn't matter if she brought Spencer with her or not.
Nikolas: Daycare, daycare, daycare -- right, right.
Emily: Yeah.
Nikolas: Uh -- I'm just guessing, but there's probably at least a hundred listings for daycare in the Denver area.
Emily: Okay, what part of the city did cClleen's family used to live in?
Nikolas sighs.
Nikolas: Cherry -- uh --
Emily: Cherry --
Nikolas: Cherry Hill. Cherry Hill.
Emily: Okay. Let's start there.
Nikolas: Okay.
Woman: Sarah? It's time for afternoon snacks.
Colleen: Oh. I'll bring them right out. Be right back.
Child laughs.
Nikolas: Hi.
Woman: Oh! May I help you?
Nikolas: Yes, yes. We need -- we're looking into some daycare for our son, and we want to know if we could --
Woman: Oh.
Nikolas: Take a tour?
