Gabriella and Amelia got to her mother’s house about an hour and a half later. By that point, Patrick and his team were already inside, hanging cameras here as well.

The next morning when Gabriella got to work, James was nowhere to be found. As much as she wanted to discuss what had happened with him, she was also relieved to see he’d maybe actually taken his own advice and gone home for once.
