- Seriously Jean, you zoomed in on my chest again?
- [Voiceover] Relax no one watches these anyway.
Besides, you're giving yourself too much credit.
- Case file number one four dash seven two nine one eight.
Evidence containment and storage of:
Digital video camera, black,
defining marks, broken lens.
A variety of tapes capturing
homicides from suspect's camera.
- [Voiceover] Pshh! Who can even watch one of those now?
- Who's lead on this anyway?
- [Voiceover] Harris.
- What a cocksucker.
- [Voiceover] Now you better hope
he doesn't watch this.
- Seriously?
Personal mobile cellular device, cracked screen,
voice memo application intact and extracted.
- [Voiceover] Mhmm.
- Crime scene photos of associated
and current known open case filings
based on prints lifted from
homicide one four dash seven two nine one eight.
- [Voiceover] Nasty.
- And backup hard copy.
Diamond ring, box included.
.40 caliber hand pistol.
Two rounds, discharged.
- [Voiceover] (gasping) Okay. Okay.
(dog barks)
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Shh.
(gasping heavily)
I can, I can hear him.
(door opens)
Did you see them?
- No.
(gasps heavily)
- [Voiceover] Are you sure you didn't see them?
- I'm sure.
- [Voiceover] Where are they?
- [George] I don't know.
- [Voiceover] Okay quiet, quiet.
(door opens)
- (crowd chants) Surprise!
(crowd laughs)
- Oh my God!
- Wow I would've been more surprised if
I hadn't just seen George dash into my apartment.
- [Voiceover] Damn it George.
- You gotta keep trying and.
- She just wanna start throwing pots and pans at me.
- It's really weird.
- It is.
- You met him Willie Nelson?
- [Voiceover] You got it? Okay now hold it.
- [Voiceover] All right, okay.
- Is it recording?
- [Voiceover] Well the red light's on.
- The red light is on.
Okay, all right. Follow me.
Hey everybody.
Everyone can I have your attention please? Hi.
The reason Rachel and I invited everyone here tonight is
because we have a really big announcement to make.
- We are going to be moving to Los Angeles in about a month.
(crowd sighs)
No I know. I know but it's gonna be great.
I was actually offered a position,
a visiting artist position with the
Los Angeles Symphony Orchestra.
(crowd cheers)
So that means that we're going to be moving
for at least two years,
but we wanted you all here tonight because
we just wanted to tell you what dear friends
you've been to the both of us,
and how we're going to miss you terribly.
This is not a sad thing.
This is a celebration,
and the last time I checked we have a shitload of booze
still in the kitchen
and there's no way we're
taking it to Los Angeles so drink up.
(crowd cheers)
- Turn the music on?
- [Voiceover] Yeah.
- Good luck you guys.
Don't let LA make you guys lame.
- (crying) You guys we're gonna miss you,
and we love you and you'll never be forgotten.
And I'm gonna puke.
- [Voiceover] Aww so sweet.
- Hey, hey can you please be careful with that?
It's really expensive.
- [Voiceover] Man don't worry about it I got this shit.
It's okay, I'll. (trips)
- It's like in '77 that Son of Sam shit.
- Yeah at least Son of Sam wrote the police
about why he was doing it.
The Northside Stalker is more animal.
- [David] Wow they got a name for him already? That's quick.
- People love that kind of shit man.
That's what's keeping those papers alive.
How fucked do you want to be to find out some journalist
doing all this shit just to sell some papers?
- What do you want me to say?
- [Voiceover] I don't know just something nice.
I've had everybody at the party
say something except for you.
- She was too busy trying to hook up with that guy.
I don't know who it was.
- Shut up I wasn't.
- [Voiceover] As you can see we've been very
diligent about packing.
Most of these dishes and glasses
will probably end up broken
because we're only using newspaper.
But that's okay cause
I'm sure these plates are older than me.
And right through here is
where the magic happens.
Happened. Well it will happen again.
Maybe if I ever finish packing tonight.
Anyone wanna take a guess which box is mine?
Hint: It's the one that looks like a complete mess.
Two very different packing styles, Rachel and I.
She's labeled and organized
and I'm more of a, I don't know,
uch-shit-into-one-box-as-you-can kind of guy.
Oh and over here are the
better products of my work, my covers.
And my mom made these frames, thanks mom.
Hopefully I'll find a place for them in my massive
one-bedroom efficiency in Los Angeles.
It will probably end up in a storage unit.
Oh.
Okay here we go.
(instrumental music)
- What are you doing?
That is so embarrassing.
- [Voiceover] What?
- You know I don't like being recorded while I'm playing.
- [Voiceover] Oh come on we have no footage of you playing.
- Why are you videotaping everything?
- [Voiceover] No reason.
- Seriously, why are you ideotaping everything I'm doing?
- [Voiceover] I don't know. I just thought it would be cool
to document our trip.
You know, throw it up on YouTube
and so our parents can know that we're okay.
Or we could edit it together with some
really crappy road music
and make all of our friends sit through it.
- That sounds like the worst idea ever.
- [Voiceover] Well it's happening and that's that.
- Get back to packing.
- [Voiceover] I am on it.
Okay so, I actually,
I do have a reason for recording all of this
and that reason is right here.
Rachel always said that her favorite place
in the world was the Rockies.
So one day three of our trip through Colorado
I will be proposing to Rachel in Silverthorne.
I got it all planned out.
I got a really great room,
and of course I got the ring,
so I just need.
- [Voiceover] David where did you put my phone charger?
- I'll be right there.
I think it's in the back room I'm on my way.
- [Voiceover] Stalker killings.
We don't have all the details yet
but the victim was found similarly to others
with their necks slit, the trachea removed
in a surgical fashion and the skin
around the neck peeled away.
Joining us in the studio now to discuss this
is renowned psychologist Doctor (beeps).
- [Voiceover] Hey, so you know we paid
those movers to load our stuff right?
- Yeah I know.
- [Voiceover] So you kinda look like you're
dressed to help them.
Where are they?
- They just turned on to Western
so they should be here pretty soon.
What are you doing?
- [Voiceover] I'm gonna go take the street a little bit.
In case we miss it, we can always look back at the video.
- Don't go to far.
- [Voiceover] So this is our street.
Right over here this is crazy cat lady's house.
I think there's a cat on the window right now.
She's actually not crazy it's just a shit ton of cats.
She actually invited us up for baklava once.
It was pretty tasty except for all the cat hair.
- Hey Scott. How's it going?
- [Voiceover] Hey you.
That's my neighbor that insists on calling me Scott.
This has happened so many times,
I think he is always gonna refer to me as Scott.
I don't really think I knew many people
in this neighborhood very well.
Here's another lovely feature of our neighborhood.
How dare they digging through our trash?
I don't know what he's doing.
Oh, oh, okay. He was looking at us.
- You got it?
- [Voiceover] Are you okay hun?
- Yeah. Just, you know, a little sad that we're leaving.
- [Voiceover] Yeah me too.
But hey new beginning right?
- Right-o daddy-o.
- [Voiceover] In fact, follow me.
- What?
- [Voiceover] Just follow me.
- (laughs) What?
What is this?
- A toast to our new life in California.
- Cheers! Flowers too?
- No these are for me.
- Oh are they now?
Because if they were for me, you know,
probably a good chance you'd be getting lucky tonight.
- Can you have sex on an air mattress?
- Oh I think we better do it on the floor,
you know, so we don't pop it.
- These flowers are for you.
- Okay thank you.
- [Voiceover] Somehow we got more in the car
than we did in the truck.
I don't know how we managed that.
Did you leave the keys in there?
- No I gave them to Cornelia.
- [Voiceover] She's here already?
Yeah she's showing the apartment to somebody else already.
- [Voiceover] Jesus that was quick.
I hope she's as quick with the deposit.
- (car door slams) Ready?
- [Voiceover] Right-o daddy-o.
- Right-o daddy-o.
- [Voiceover] You know about the great Chicago fire right?
- [Voiceover] Of course.
- [Voiceover] Well did you know that before the fire
this whole town was like a swamp?
In fact, the city was so disgusting that
they built most of it like ten feet off the ground.
- Really?
- [Voiceover] Yeah. That's how the phrase
Criminal Underground got coined.
There was like this whole seedy world
below Chicago for murderers
and criminals, prostitutes, and white slavery.
All right underneath the city.
And of course when the fire happened,
most of it got destroyed.
All the local clergy said that the fire
was caused by God to rid the city
of its awful inhabitants like,
like a modern day Sodom and Gomorrah or some shit.
- [Voiceover] What happened to all the criminals?
- [Voiceover] Two theories, both of them mine.
Perhaps the wicked souls of Chicago's underground
were buried below trapped there forever like
some sort of ancient curse.
But I like my other theory better.
- And your other theory is?
- [Voiceover] The fire smoked them out of their homes
and they've been up here with us ever since.
- Yeah that would explain a lot about our politicians.
- [Voiceover] (laughs) I know right.
- You should write a book about that.
- [Voiceover] I'd love to do a photo series on it.
New places compare with the old.
Find some old archive photos
and just see how things have changed.
- Yeah well, the city never really changed.
- [Voiceover] Take Harlem up to North
and then we'll cut back down to Manhunt.
- [Voiceover] Won't that take longer?
- [Voiceover] No way. This makes much more sense
than dealing with this traffic trust me.
- You piece of shit jack.
- [Voieover] Explain to me again the intricacies
of taking a shortcut?
- Hey at least it didn't happen on the Interstate.
- [Voiceover] Yeah. I think there's a,
an auto body shop anywhere around here?
- [Voiceover] Neighborhood is this anyway?
- [Voiceover] Little shady Tim.
(laughs)
You're doing a great job babe.
- Oh thank you.
No my dad, my dad taught me this.
- [Voiceover] Oh my God I think it's so cute
when David argues.
See how his eyebrows are always up?
That means he's serious.
- Why are you filming this?
- [Voiceover] Oh the tables have turned.
- This guy's ripping us off.
Should've had you talk to him.
- [Voiceover] Oh well I'm sure you'll win him over
with your indignation and city elitism.
I'm gonna grab a soda.
Hmm. Now I see why he likes filming everything.
That's kind of fun.
(bottles clashing)
What is that?
(gasps) - Hey spare some change?
- [Voiceover] Oh my God.
No I'm sorry I don't have anything.
- Okay all set.
- [Voiceover] All right.
(country music)
- [Voiceover] M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I.
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I. M-I-S.
- [Voiceover] What are you doing?
- [Voiceover] It's a thing. You hungry?
Get it?
(motorcycles roaring)
Should be taking one of these across the country.
But at least we didn't take one of these.
Come on Rachel. We're already running behind.
Jesus.
- What?
- [Voiceover] Where'd you go?
- Girl stuff. Don't ask. Come on.
- [Voiceover] Well your "girl stuff" has delayed us.
I don't think we're gonna be able to see
the world's tallest fish statue now.
So hey, we made it to another state.
A little later than planned, but we did it.
- So where we staying tonight?
- [Voiceover] Only the finest hotel in all of Omaha.
And by finest I mean the one I got the
best deal on on the internet.
- So we're staying tonight in Omaha then?
- [Voiceover] And then.
- Okay you and your maps.
- [Voiceover] And then we drive through Nebraska
and then into Colorado.
Okay? And then we're gonna stay
right around SIlverthorne somewhere.
- [Voiceover] Fun with this? I'm gonna go pee.
- [Voiceover] And then over here on day three of our trip,
in your Silverthorne, in the Rocky Mountains,
I'm gonna propose to Rachel.
Two days from now,
I'm either gonna have some very good news or some.
(cell phone vibrates)
Yeah hey mom. What's up?
How's it going?
No we're just grabbing a bite to.
You know what? You are cutting out,
so just, I'm gonna go outside for a little bit.
Okay just hang on a sec. Gimme a second.
- [Voiceover] Excuse me miss.
Your boyfriend left this on the table.
- [Voiceover] Oh.
- [Voiceover] Didn't want you to lose it.
- [Voiceover] Thank you.
How many cows did you have to tip
before you became a true Iowan?
- [Voiceover] Hey hey. Quiet or I will pull this car over
right now and make you tip a cow.
- [Voiceover] Okay put your money where your mouth is.
- Oh I just forgot it's not cow-tipping season.
- [Voiceover] Damn.
- Hey you grabbed the map?
- [Voiceover] The what?
- The map. I left it on the table at the diner.
- [Voiceover] I didn't see it when I left the tip.
I thought you grabbed it.
You know you almost left the camera too?
- Shit I didn't grab it.
- [Voiceover] Waitress probably cleared it off.
- Damn it.
- [Voiceover] Okay, I think you're gonna be okay because
we have this new single things called phones now,
and they actually magically work to show you a map
so you don't actually have to buy one.
- You know I just though it would be cool to have
an actual map on a road trip.
- [Voiceover] (laughs) Who are you?
Chevy Chase from vacation?
- [David] His name is Clark Griswald.
Day one Omaha four days to go.
Pretty good start. We lost one good map
and a good tire and I got a little stomach ache
from the biscuits and gravy
so I guess it's not a great start.
- I'm exhausted. Does this place have a pool?
(water splashes)
- [Voiceover] Ladies please introduce yourselves.
- Dana Johnson.
- Ashley Johnson.
- [Voiceover] All right two very dedicated athletes
and over here we have our judging panel.
All right.
(water splashes)
- (in unison) Who won? Who won? Who won?
- It was a tie.
- Say hi.
- [Voiceover] Bye girls.
Oh I hate to see you go but I love to watch you leave.
- What did you say?
- [Voiceover] Nothing.
- Are you coming?
- [Voiceover] Actually Phil and I are gonna
have a couple more drinks.
You wanna stick around?
- No I'm gonna try to go get some sleep.
My head kinda hurts.
- How much time we got? How much drinking we doing?
- [Voiceover] (laughs)
- [Voiceover] Woah. This is nice.
This is really nice.
(laughs)
Hey how much did you pay for it?
- That is a very rude question to ask me sir.
- [Voiceover] Okay. How much did it set you back?
- Let's just say not as much as
the ring I just bought for Rachel.
- [Voiceover] What?
- Yeah. As soon as I get to Colorado
I'm gonna propose to her.
- [Voiceover] What? That's wow, that's great.
Congratulations.
- Thank you. Thank you.
- [Voiceover] Here, a toast. A toast to the
future Mr. and Mrs.
What the hell was your last name?
- Johnson.
- [Voiceover] What? That's insane.
We're the Johnson's.
- I'm just fucking with you it's not Johnson.
It's Richmond.
- [Voiceover] Richmond.
Congrats Dave Richmond.
How much did you pay for this camera?
- Hey!
Oh thank you Jesus.
Is it okay?
Yeah, yeah. It's fine.
I'm just glad you didn't drop it in the water though.
- Yeah no shit. It's like, seriously,
how much did this thing cost you?
- Let's just say that if you had dropped it in the water,
your wife would have killed you.
- (laughs) She's gonna kill me anyway.
Let's drink to it.
- All right okay.
(siren noises)
- What are you doing? Get out of here!
- [Voiceover] I just thought I'd see if
you need any assistance.
- Are you drunk?
- [Voiceover] Maybe.
- You better not plan on showing this to anybody.
- [Voiceover] I plan on posting it on the internet
as soon as I'm done.
- Would you get out of here?
- [Voiceover] And I want you back with me.
- No.
- [Voiceover] I want you in front for me.
- David.
- Okay so end of day one.
We made it.
- Yay we made it.
- What do you think?
- I think I'm tired. Let's turn it off.
- How about we leave it on for a little while
and have some fun.
(grunts)
- Come on. Let's go to sleep.
- Loud and clear.
- [Voiceover] Good morning.
- Can we get some Starbucks?
This coffee here is brutal.
- [Voiceover] Oh are you hungover?
- No I am not that delightful little euphemism.
I think that the proper term is fucked.
- [Voiceover] (laughs) Well I would be an awful girlfriend
if I made you drive today.
But it is your turn.
- You gotta be kidding me.
- [Voiceover] Biscuits and gravy again? Really.
- Well yeah. I love biscuits and gravy.
- [Voiceover] Okay.
- So what is the technical term for someone who
can do something like this?
- Well the clinical terminology that we use in the
psychopath subject area.
- Okay a little bit about where we are.
Somewhere in the middle of bumfuck Nebraska,
but luckily the road is asphalt so there is that.
Average road speed.
- (screams) (cell phone vibrates)
- What? Are you okay?
- (gasps heavily) Where are we?
- In the middle of nowhere. Are you okay?
- Yeah it's just I...
I just.
- What?
- It's just a bad dream.
- You were only asleep for like six minutes.
What was it about?
- It's just.
- What?
- Nothing.
- It was the Johnson's wasn't it?
They followed us all the way to California
now they wanna live with us.
Oh my God that would scare the crap outta me too.
Seriously you okay?
- Yeah. I'm just gonna try to go back to sleep.
(country music plays)
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
- It's kind of slant-y. Is it gonna fall?
- It's all right.
- Yeah. (laughs) - Yeah.
- Hi. - Hi.
- We are in Nebraska.
- Yeah on the beautiful Platte river.
- Look it's a fish.
Hopefully look them over here.
Do you see them?
- They're catfish I think.
Holy cow look at those fish.
- Come over here.
- It's easy look. You go in, okay.
- Here you go. It's okay.
It's okay. Okay I'll share.
Going away baby. It's okay.
- Come here.
* Nebraska
- [Voiceover] Ugh! Disgusting David roll down the window.
- [Voiceover] Oh we are so stopping here.
- [Voiceover] David we're not stopping at the
world's biggest fish, the world's biggest moose,
the world's biggest.
- Welcome to the Great Platte River Archway.
- Thank you. What's your name?
- I'm Marshall.
- Hi Marshall.
- Marshall Steeves.
- I'm Rachel.
- You're Rachel.
- I'm David.
- David.
- Hi David.
- Still recording?
- [Voiceover] Yeah.
- You red light it?
- [Voiceover] Yeah.
This is like Pirates of the Caribbean.
- [Voiceover] I don't know if you could.
- Okay you got it?
Look at me now.
- Scary.
David I think this guy's real. I'm serious.
Doesn't he look real?
Hello?
- [Voiceover] (screams)
- That is not funny.
You scared the hell out of me.
- This thing is not working at all.
- [Voiceover] Mine is not working either.
- No?
- [Voiceover] You think we can just leave them?
Yeah. Good idea.
- Come up here. Come on.
Hey babe.
- Huh?
- [Voiceover] I think they're gonna close in a few minutes.
We should just get through the rest of it.
- It's kind of nice that we have a place all to ourselves.
- [Voiceover] Yes. Well there is that.
- It is kinda creepy there's no one here.
- [Voiceover] I know.
Woah.
Rachel?
- Hey there. What a coinkydink.
- Look who I found.
- So it doesn't hit.
So it doesn't hit the dock.
This is actually a whistle.
You wouldn't think it but it actually is.
On this end down here,
they'd screw that into the steam pipes.
And then when they pulled the whistle,
the steam came out and made this big noise.
- [Voiceover] Well that was fun.
Yikes.
- Did he tell you about the buffalo?
- [Voiceover] Oh yeah how they used all of the buffalo.
Pretty much told me everything I learned by playing
Oregon Trail as a kid.
- Okay amazing. See that's the sort of stuff
I'm gonna miss about the Midwest.
I'll miss Chicago too I think.
- [Voiceover] Yeah me too.
Hey? But you know what I'm not gonna miss?
The winters, the super humid summers
where the electricity goes out and the AC stops working.
Oh yeah I'm not gonna miss the Northside killer thing.
- I'm gonna miss the hot dogs.
You know I think that the news is making that
into a bigger deal than it is anyway.
I mean honestly on the west side,
people are dying every day.
And then a couple of white people get knocked off
when they think that it's like a serial killer.
People are super paranoid.
I remember when I was in the sixth grade,
my parents sent me to this girl scout camp in Virginia
cause there was a serial killer on the loose in Detroit.
We didn't even live near Detroit.
We lived out in the suburbs.
- [Voiceover] I just can't believe that
you were a girl scout.
- Damn right I was. Four years.
- [Voiceover] Did they give you a badge
for anal retentiveness?
Or for alphabetizing things that
don't need to be alphabetized?
(violin music)
That was beautiful. What's it from?
- It's Kinderszenen by Schumann.
- [Voiceover] My german's pretty awful,
actually my everything is pretty awful.
What's it mean?
- Kinderszenen. It means scenes from childhood.
There are 13 different pieces in the entire suite,
and each one represents a different memory from childhood.
This one's called traumerei.
- [Voiceover] What's that mean?
- Dreaming.
- [Voiceover] Oh shit we missed the sign of Nebraska.
- You really want to remember Nebraska?
- [Voiceover] No.
- Hey can we finally get a dog when we get to California?
- [Voiceover] I don't wanna get a dog.
- Why not? Don't give me that stupid reason again.
The dogs die and it makes everybody sad
and that's why you don't wanna get one cause it's bullshit.
- [Voiceover] No it's not. Have you ever lost a pet?
It's awful.
- True, but by that reasoning you shouldn't form
relationships with anything that dies.
I mean why are you with me?
I'm only gonna die one day.
I mean might as well not get too attached
cause it's gonna be super sad when I die.
Might as well just live a lonely life
and not care about anyone or anything.
- [Voiceover] Wow you are really passionate about this.
- Dogs are awesome.
- [Voiceover] What about a cat?
- Cats are evil. They're like the chosen pet of Ra.
Enough said.
Hey hold this for a second.
- What do you want me to do with it?
- [Voiceover] I don't know just pretend like it's one of
those reality show confession moments.
- David I am actually a man.
- I know that's why I love you.
- [Voiceover] Come on David pick up your phone.
(cell phone vibrates)
Oh shit.
Here's a confession.
You're an asshole for making me wait out here.
Where are you? Jesus David.
David? Anyone in here?
David? This isn't funny.
David don't make me come in there. I don't want to.
David?
This isn't funny.
Hello?
Hello? Anybody in here?
Hello?
David?
Oh shit.
Okay.
David?
David where are you?
- Come on quick. Just get in the car.
- [Voiceover] Okay.
What happened?
- Got it? It's on?
Okay so I told Rachel what happened back at the rest stop,
and now she's making me say it right into the camera.
- [Voiceover] Don't forget your pledge as well.
- I won't. Okay.
I, David Richmond, really had to take a shit.
- [Voiceover] And where did you take the shit?
- In the women's bathroom.
- [Voiceover] And why was that?
- Because the men's bathroom was gross,
and I wasn't gonna take a shit in there.
- [Voiceover] And now the pledge okay?
- Okay. I, David, the asshole
will never scare my beautiful
and wonderful girlfriend again,
no matter how bad I have to take a shit,
and no matter how nasty any bathroom is.
- [Voiceover] You were so weird.
What are you gonna do if someone came in there?
- I don't know just try to not to make
any dude sounds I guess.
What did people do before rolling bags?
- [Voiceover] Um they carried them.
- [Voiceover] It's ridiculous.
How many deer had to die to make this thing?
- [Voiceover] Oh my gosh. Probably a lot.
- [Voiceover] I should have brought my dress bolow.
Woah, look at this map.
I miss my map.
Rachel do you see it?
- Yeah I see it. Now I know why you wanted to stay here.
Very large maps. Fantastic.
- [Voiceover] Damn it.
- [Voiceover] Babe what are you doing?
Come on let's go to bed.
- [Voiceover] I'm trying to make this thing say
Colorado on the screen.
- How about this?
- [Voiceover] Well that's another way of doing it.
Are you trying to make this thing look even more
low budget than it is?
So Rachel is sound asleep.
And I'm just too nervous about tomorrow
so I decided to go for a walk.
However there are no sidewalks around the hotel
and it's super dark,
so I'm just walking around the hotel.
Hello?
- Hi how can I help you sir?
- [Voiceover] Hi can I have a wake up call for 7:45?
- Yeah we can do that. What room number is it?
- [Voiceover] Room 150.
Wow this is creepy.
Any second I'm gonna see two
dead twin little girls covered in blood.
(elevator dings)
- [Voiceover] David. You're gonna die.
(rock music)
- [Voiceover] Oh that is so cool.
You okay? You still got a headache?
- [Voiceover] Yeah. It's gotta be like the
audition or something you know.
- [Voiceover] Yeah.
You wanna stop? Get some aspirin or something?
- No let's just keep going.
- [Voiceover] This is not Chicago.
Wow.
Feeling better?
- A little. Food helps.
- [Voiceover] Okay.
It's pretty huh?
- [Voiceover] Yeah it's really beautiful.
- I, I'm gonna go to the bathroom okay?
- [Voiceover] Okay. You feel okay?
- Yeah. Yeah I'm fine.
- [Voiceover] Okay.
Alright so
here goes nothing.
Okay.
Perfect. Excuse me?
Excuse me?
- (yells in foreign language)
- On top you got it? Is it rolling?
- (talks in foreign language)
- That okay so just point the camera at me
and when my girlfriend starts to walk over here.
Okay sir and then when she gets closer
I'm gonna get down on one knee
and when I do you come in.
You don't go down on one knee. I do later.
(talks in foreign language)
Okay when she gets closer I'm gonna go down on one knee
and when I do,
you're gonna zoom.
(talks in foreign language)
Yeah it's a really nice camera.
Hey you guys enjoy your stay in the United States.
Alright bye.
- What was that all about?
- [Voiceover] He wanted to look in my camera.
He was asking me about it.
He didn't speak English very well so
he kind of didn't understand what I was saying.
You feeling okay?
- Yeah let's get back in the car okay.
- [Voiceover] Yeah. You want to maybe
go for a walk or something?
Get some fresh air?
- No I just want to get back on the road okay?
- [Voiceover] Yeah. Okay.
Hungry?
Hey you know what we could stop
at some of those hot springs.
Not too far from here.
What do you think?
Or we could drive a little further south
and pull out into some of those cool towns down there.
Whatever you want to.
Baby you okay?
- (vomiting noises)
Everything going according to plan.
Jesus.
Hey Rachel so pretty down here.
Come down here. You're missing it.
- Babe I feel like I'm ruining all of our plans.
- [Voiceover] No honey no.
Come here.
My only concern is having you feel better.
Okay?
We set aside a couple of days for Colorado,
so we still have like a day or so.
You just find a movie, we can last,
and I'll just go on a dime and take some
photos or something okay?
- Yeah okay.
- Okay? - Yeah.
- I'm gonna go pull the car around okay?
- Okay.
- Okay?
- Yeah.
- [Voiceover] That's weird.
Rachel?
Did you take our bags out?
Rachel?
Rachel!
Oh shit.
It's 2 o'clock in the afternoon
and as you can see things are going
really well around here.
I'm bouncing off the walls so what do you say
we go check out Grand Junction?
Mom you're gonna love this sound.
Teddy bears and candles.
- So what's with the camera?
- [Voiceover] I'm documenting my girlfriend and I's
trip out to California.
Figured it be pretty memorable
but so far all I have is footage of hotels
and her getting sick.
So is there anything fun to do in town?
- Oh just the obvious.
Whitewater rafting, biking, anything outdoors
but around town mostly just the mall up here.
- [Voiceover] Huh.
- Sorry.
- [Voiceover] Oh that's okay.
(snoring sounds)
(door opens)
So here we are in Grand Junction.
Things haven't gone exactly
as I had hoped.
Tonight I should be out
celebrating with Rachel.
Assuming that she would've said yes
to my proposal of marriage.
But instead, I'm sitting here in the
illustrious pool slash spa area
of Grand Junction's finest roadway motel.
As you can see there are many accomodations here,
including a couple of chairs
and a few soiled towels on the ground.
Of course this lukewarm hot tub.
Ow!
(sirens)
What's going on?
- [Voiceover] Unfortunately,
one of our guests has passed away.
- Just a minute. Excuse me,
are you supposed to be on this floor?
- [Voiceover] Yeah. I'm in room 327. Everything okay?
- Please return to your room and shut off that camera.
- [Voiceover] Rachel! Rachel! Okay you.
- [Voiceover] What are you doing?
- [Voiceover] Look at this. There's this car outside.
I think that.
- [Voiceover] It's the middle of the night. Shut that off.
- [Voiceover] Something happened, I just.
The hell?
- [Voiceover] Wake up sleepyhead. Come on.
Time to hit the road.
- Wait what?
I thought you were sick.
- [Voiceover] Well I only got like 15 hours of sleep.
I feel great. Just so much better.
- I don't think I slept at all.
- [Voiceover] Why not?
- I was worried about you.
- [Voiceover] Aww that's so sweet.
But come on, get up, we gotta hit the road.
- Okay just one more hour.
- [Voiceover] No come on I want to get
to Vegas and good time.
Were you drinking last night?
- Maybe.
- [Voiceover] By yourself?
- Yes.
- [Voiceover] Alright come on. Get up. Vegas.
What?
- That's so weird.
- [Voiceover] What?
- I could've sworn I parked in head first
and now it's the other way around.
- [Voiceover] This coming from a guy who drank
by himself last night.
- Yeah but I didn't have anything to drink
before I got back to the hotel.
- [Voiceover] You okay?
- I don't know. Maybe I did park down there.
- [Voiceover] Tell you what I'll drive
the first shifts today okay?
Give me the keys.
(country music)
You want to stop in Green River for lunch?
I was thinking about stopping there to get gas
and it looks like the last option for a while.
David hello?
- [Voiceover] Sorry yeah that sounds fine.
Let's just get something for the road though.
We'll make better time that way.
- Alright. You okay?
- [Voiceover] I'm fine.
Is your phone getting a signal?
- Um not really.
We just stay on I-70 right?
- [Voiceover] You see? We do need a map.
- That's why I'm going to buy you one in Green River.
Hey ready?
- [Voiceover] Yeah.
Let's get back on the road. You drive.
- Okay. Got your map.
You know I'm not one to judge anybody about their religion,
but I don't know how the Mormons could think
that this was the Promised Land?
David hey what's the matter with you?
- [Voiceover] I think this truck is following us.
- [Voiceover] What?
- [Voiceover] Yeah.
Yeah the green one right behind us.
I don't know I think they're following us.
Speed up a little bit.
- [Voiceover] What?
- [Voiceover] Speed up just a little bit.
- You're crazy.
- [Voiceover] Just do it.
- [Rachel] Okay fine.
What are they still there?
- [Voiceover] Okay. Alright. Alright.
Next exit I want you to,
I want you to get off.
- Here?
- [Voiceover] Here Yes! Yes!
- [Voiceover] David stop it. This isn't funny.
- [Voiceover] Just turn off do it.
- [Voiceover] Okay. God you're scaring the shit out of me.
Are they still there?
- [Voiceover] I can't tell.
Shit.
- [Voiceover] Shit what?
- [Voiceover] They're fucking following us.
- [Voiceover] Then why did you have me get off?
- [Voiceover] I didn't know.
I want you to pull over the side of the road.
Let's see if they pass us.
- [Voiceover] David, I don't want to slow down.
I don't think that that's a good idea.
- [Voiceover] Let's see if they pass us.
- [Voiceover] And what if they don't?
Like I don't know. This is a really bad idea.
We got off onto a rural area.
We should've stayed where people were.
What should we do?
- [Voiceover] Rachel just drive up to the top
in here and pull off as soon as you can.
- [Voiceover] Well shit.
Shit this is really scary.
What do we do?
- [Voiceover] There.
Okay, Right here.
- [Voiceover] Here?
- [Voiceover] Okay right here.
- [Voiceover] Okay okay okay.
Shit oh my God! What do we do?
- [Voiceover] Back up! Back up!
- Should we roll down our window, or should we just?
- [Voiceover] Yeah.
- Okay, okay we're just gonna.
- Howdy, we just wanted to let you know
your brake light was out.
Right brake light.
- Oh okay thank you. Thank you.
- Bye have a nice day. God bless.
- Okay thank you. - [Voiceover] Thank you.
- You asshole you scared the shit out of me. It's not funny.
- [Voiceover] Yeah but I was right they were following us.
- Yeah you were right we were being followed
by like the sweetest woman in the whole world.
You're such an asshole.
That's it you're driving the rest of the way.
- [Voiceover] Oh my.
Oh just.
- Got it?
- Yeah.
You know this does it all you want,
but there's some pretty cool things in it.
- I know.
- Like, let's see, like the,
like, oh the world's largest thermometer.
And there's also a water park.
That sounds like a big mistake.
"Mystery of the moving rocks".
It says "these rocks move by themselves".
Okay.
Wow the desert has some crazy stuff going on.
You're ready?
- Yeah I'm ready.
- Good.
(sermon)
- [Voiceover] Turns out,
new evidence is pointing toward it being a female.
- Babe this shirt is awesome.
We should go to the Grand Canyon.
You know it's not too far.
- [Voiceover] Do they have craps tables
and free drinks there?
- Who knows they might.
Plus I don't wanna stay for very long.
We can just drive by and then we'll head on to Vegas.
- [Voiceover] It's not that cool. I went there as a kid.
- Well I've never been there.
I mean I wanna see it and we don't have to stop or anything.
- [Voiceover] It's not that great.
It's the kind of place old people go
and say "Now I finally know the meaning of awesome".
(sighs)
This is awesome!
- [Voiceover] See?
- [Voiceover] I stand corrected.
You want to walk around a little bit?
- [Voiceover] Uh huh. Yes I do.
Rachel!
I'm glad you're feeling better.
- Yeah me too.
I mean look at this. Hey.
- I am the luckiest man.
- Really?
- I am never letting you go.
- Well will you let me go long enough
to use the restroom maybe?
- Yeah sure.
- Yeah. Okay. I'll be right back.
- Excuse me sir do you mind stepping down
from the picnic bench?
- [Voiceover] Oh yeah. Yeah okay.
- How can I help ya?
- [Voiceover] Yeah what is the fastest way
to Vegas from here?
- Oh that's easy. Just head out the park the way you came
and go towards Fredonia, Arizona.
Then take highway 389 towards Saint George.
Jump on I-15 and you're on your way.
- [Voiceover] I gotta go. Sorry.
- Okay have a good day.
- [Voiceover] Shit!
Rachel! Rachel!
- David. What the hell are you doing?
What are you talking about?
- [Voiceover] There was, I thought.
- [Voiceover] Is everything okay?
What are you doing?
David. Is everything alright?
- [Voiceover] It's alright. I don't know I thought.
(gasps)
I thought some man followed you in here.
I don't know.
- Are you sure you're okay?
- [Voiceover] I think I've been in the car too long.
I don't know. Let's just, let's go.
- Okay. Are you sure you're alright?
- [Voiceover] Yeah, let's just go.
- Okay.
- Is everything alright?
- [Voiceover] Yeah no we're fine.
He just gets a little nervous with me around the heights.
That's all, I mean it's this weird thing.
- Okay. Alright. Well have a safe trip in Las Vegas.
- Thank you.
- [Voiceover] Take care.
- Appreciate it.
- [Voiceover] Hey.
- Hey.
- [Voiceover] You're alright?
- Yeah I'm fine.
- [Voiceover] Okay good.
- Maybe we should stop with all the paranoia
when we get to Vegas, yeah?
- I will.
- [Voiceover] Promise?
- Yeah. I promise.
- [Voiceover] Right-o daddy-o.
- RIght-o daddy-o.
(rock music)
This is so cool look at these lights.
- Beautiful huh?
- Well I guess we're downtown.
Some really cool people hanging out.
Oh!
- [Voiceover] You are ridiculous.
- [Voiceover] Hey. - Hey.
- [Voiceover] You didn't get anything.
- I did. I'm just wearing it.
You have to wait till we get home and see.
- [Voiceover] Oh well we better.
Oh baby!
(gasps)
You look amazing.
- No you can leave it on if you want to.
- I love Vegas.
Oh.
(nervous gasp)
- No way I'm gonna kill this guy.
The fuck?
Stay here lock the door.
- David please don't leave me here.
I want you to.
(fast knocks)
- [Voiceover] It's me open the door.
I left my keys in there.
- Did you catch him? Who was he?
- No I told hotel security about him
and they're chasing him down now.
- Jesus that was fucking scary.
- I knew it. I fucking knew it.
- You knew what?
- I should've told you honey. I'm sorry.
- Should've told me what?
(phone rings)
- Hello? Yeah this is he.
- David.
- [Voiceover] Bye bye pervert.
- [Voiceover] Why are you filming this?
- [Voiceover] I wanna see his ass get put in that car.
Let's see you following us now man.
- What are you talking about?
- [Voiceover] This guy's been following us since Colorado.
Pervert. I knew he was.
I saw in Grand Junction.
You remember that car in Utah?
I knew that was him,
and then I saw him again
following you into that bathroom in Grand Canyon.
- Dave.
Hey I thought I asked you to turn that off.
Did you tell the police?
- [Voiceover] No.
- Alright. Turn that fucking camera off.
- [Voiceover] I'm just taping over the
stuff from last night.
What do you want to see then?
- Fine.
- [Voiceover] Hey look,
I'm sorry that I didn't say anything.
I was wondering like how he was following us
and I, I don't know.
Maybe I was just, you know, tired.
We were a little drunk last night.
- Look I don't want to talk about it all right?
- [Voiceover] Okay.
- Right?
(rap music)
- What are you doing?
- Come on.
This is why I only dance at weddings.
- You look ridiculous.
- Oh!
(sings together)
Oh we got the whole church.
Sorry I freaked out last night.
- It's okay.
We're flying next time okay?
- Yes.
Alright here we are.
- We did it.
- Not as interesting as I thought.
- Not really. No.
- (laughs) What do you think?
- It's alright. I wanna know where the second tallest is.
- [Voiceover] So David what are you most looking
forward to in California?
- We are already in California.
- [Voiceover] Very funny. Ha-ha.
- I don't know just,
I'd love to see the Pacific Ocean.
I know that sounds cheesy
but I've never seen it.
I wanna put my feet in it.
I want to see the sun set over the ocean.
- [Voiceover] David? - Yeah?
- [Voiceover] Pull over when you get the chance.
- Okay. Alright. Are you okay?
- [Voiceover] Yeah just pull over.
- [Voiceover] All right.
- [Voiceover] At the next exit.
- [Voiceover] Okay sure.
(country music)
- You're all right?
- I'm fine.
- [Voiceover] What is this?
- [Voiceover] David what are you doing?
- [Voiceover] Do you see this?
It's crazy. It's like an abandoned water park or something.
- Come one let's go. I wanna go.
- [Voiceover] No hang on. I want to see this.
It looks awesome.
- [Voiceover] Okay. 10 minutes tops!
- [Voiceover] Okay.
- [Voiceover] Woah. This is something else.
Woah.
That must be where the slides were, jeez.
All through here. Oh they had like a lazy river.
Oh shit. Ow! Ow!
How old is this?
I thought water parks were kind of a
relatively new thing this is.
Wow.
I guess this place is good as any.
Rachel!
- What?
- [Voiceover] Just come here for a minute.
This place is so cool.
The hell happened here?
Oh my God.
This crack has took down for degression huh.
Hello? Rachel?
Is somebody there?
Woah.
Oh this is.
Jesus you scared the shit out of me.
- I want to get out of here right now.
- [Voiceover] All right. Okay. Fine.
Just let me film this.
- No, no, no, like right now.
- [Voiceover] All right.
- [Voiceover] David!
Rachel, Rachel get to the car right now.
Run! Run!
You son of a bitch!
Where are you fucking asshole?
Just leave us alone!
Show yourself you coward!
Where are you?
- Shh.
(grunts heavily)
- Stop please stop!
- Who are you? Why are you following us?
- Stop!
- You do not understand!
- I understand perfectly you're a fucking psycho!
You've been following us since Colorado!
Chicago!
- You, you're the guy.
- I'm not who you think I am.
I know what you're thinking and you're wrong,
but I'm not the press.
She is!
- What?
Put the gun down he's down.
Rachel.
(gun shot fired)
(grunts heavily)
Rachel.
- [Voiceover] Wednesday, 12, 9:26 pm.
I know have visual confirmation that Rachel Malone is
directly responsible for the murder occurring last night
as well as near certainty that she's tied to several others.
My primary goal of detaining her
and starting her back in the program has been
thwarted by her being one step ahead.
My new objective is to warn her travel partner
David Richmond about her illness without alarming him
and alerting her of my intentions.
There's just so much to learn.
I just, I fear this journey may have become too dangerous.
What are you drawing Rachel?
- The dog in the house.
The dog goes in the house.
- Is it your dog?
- No my dog is dead.
- And what happened to your dog?
- I don't wanna talk about it.
- Yesterday you promised me that today
we would talk about it.
Do you remember how you promised me that Rachel?
Well when you make a promise
you have to keep it.
Do you understand that?
Rachel do you understand that?
- I cut my dog's throat open.
- [Voiceover] Why did you do that Rachel?
- (shrugs)
- [Voiceover] Why did you kill your dog Rachel?
Is it the same reason that you killed
the other pets on your street?
- When I did those things, my headache went away.
- [Voiceover] Okay why don't you finish your drawing
and I'll come back in a little bit okay?
