And what about you, Agent Malone?
You want one? Come on, Ray. Don't be a jerk. No. Come on. Here, Andy, have one. Mr. Spaulding. All right, hand it over. The beer. Give it to me. And the cigarettes. All right now, go back to the dorms and wait for me. Andy, come here. I'd like to have a word with you. Andy Deaver, a 17-year-old junior at Spaulding Academy boarding school.. He told some other students he was leaving for good that night.. We're not sure why.. Headmaster Graham Spaulding was the last one to see him..
Andy never made it home..
Spaulding says Andy left campus at around 6:30 p.m. About 10 minutes after the other kids got back to their dorms. When did the call come in from his parents? Midnight. He was driving the family car. The same one we found on Route 34 a couple of miles from here. It had a flat tire. One of my guys called it in at 2:45 a.m. Doors unlocked, keys in the ignition, tire jack on the ground. You run it through forensics? Not exactly yet. What do you mean, "not exactly yet"? We're trying to keep kids from drinking in the woods. We had the car ticketed and towed to impound. Your canine unit get any hits? They sniffed the woods. But they kept coming back to where the car was. We're going to take it from here, okay?
I told Andy that he really impressed me in his two years here. I didn't understand why he was leaving. You didn't call his parents? I thought it was temporary. With some kids, you have to give them just a little bit of rope.
So what happened after you spoke? He headed off to his car and home, I guess. Forgive me for saying this, but you don't seem particularly concerned. In my position, I have to maintain a certain amount of calm. The truth is all of these kids are extremely bright. And frankly, many of them would have difficulty at another school. We have kids who take off and come back in a week or so. With some excuse from their parents. Right. So you run a pretty lenient ship? I never saw being strict work with any kid. We'll have to do a more extensive search. Of the campus and surrounding woods, if it's okay. Absolutely. Anything at all. As a matter of fact. What's that? A reward. $15,000 for help, information, whatever. I didn't know who to make it out to. FBI, Department of Justice. That's very generous. I'll make sure you get a receipt. I should get back. With all this going on and 300 adolescents, you can imagine the anxiety. Of course. Listen, I am going to need to speak to you again. Naturally. Terrific. Until then. Don't take your eyes off that guy.
Graham Spaulding: 46, divorced, no children. Lived in Phoenix from '90 to '96. Atlanta, '96 till last year. He is a retired veterinarian. Sold his practice. Moved down here to take over the school last year, after his father died.
With what qualifications? Looking after animals? High school's pretty rough these days. Hilarious. Graham's chief qualification seems to be that his father was Alfred Spaulding. Who founded the school in 1956.
That you have with those boys, what that must feel like.
Girlfriend? No, lives alone. Any priors? Record's clean. What about his alibi? Says he was reviewing mid-semester evaluations at home.
Got forensics back on the car. Multiple prints, including those of Mr. Graham Spaulding. The tire wound is inconsistent with a moving blowout.
He's on his way back. You got to get out of there..
It's a sidewall puncture, probably a screwdriver. How far away from the campus was the car? So somebody drove that car to the roadside and made it look like a flat. And they left the car jack there, too. Nice touch.
Okay, we have to play this very carefully. If Spaulding has the kid, he may try and get back to him. We need a 24-hour surveillance--. If he smells us, he won't make a move. That's the dance. We have to focus on him without him realizing he's the prime suspect. Best case, the kid can survive 72 hours without water. That leaves us 50 hours. Viv, set up meetings with the other faculty members. To make it look like Spaulding's not the only one. Martin and Samantha, I want you to talk to all the students you can. Get as much information about Spaulding and his relationship with Andy. SOG surveillance is in place on Spaulding. It seems as though he left in a hurry. He must have. But for the life of me, I can't imagine why. He loved it here. Can you tell me about the phone call last night? He sounded so distressed. Mom, I just don't want to be here anymore. But I thought everything was going great. Well, it's not.. Andy, does this have something to do with that girl?
I don't want to talk about it. I want to come home.
