- [Detective] All thumbs.
(footsteps)
(bang)
- [Girl] Oh crap.
- Come in and sit down.
We gotta make this meeting quick doll.
I have got to find that Lindbergh baby.
- Oh God.
Yeah I've been reading about hims.
I hope he's okay.
Detective,
you got any leads about my sweet friend Betty?
I miss her so much.
Her smile.
Her laugh.
The sound of her voice.
Where the hell could she be
it's been five whole months missing.
- Listen toots.
- Yeah.
- Your suspicions about your friend were correct.
- No. - [Detective] Betty's not just some flake
who's canceling plans on everybody,
because,
she hates ya and she's too much of a goddamn coward
to tell ya to your face.
- No!
Say it ain't so.
- No can do ya crazy dame.
Just look at the proof.
(slaps)
Exhibit A.
Your text history from four months ago.
You said,
"Wanna see a movie Saturday????"
She said,
"Let's do it."
On Saturday you text to follow up.
"What's the plan for tonight??????"
She replies,
"Sorry, girl!
Way too much work.
Super swamped.
But let's chill soon!
- You don't think there's anyway
she really was busy with work?
(sighs)
- If this were an isolated incident I'd say sure.
- Yeah, maybe.
- But she's canceling on ya every single week,
and just varying up the excuses.
- Oh God you're right.
So many excuses.
My roommate's friend is in town
so I gotta hang out with them.
Or I've got so much laundry to do.
I gotta go home to wash my hair?
Wash your goddamn hair some other time Betty.
- Now you're getting the picture.
- [Girl] Wait a minute.
But she's got herself a new boyfriend.
(laughs)
- [Girl] It'd be natural to
wanna spend more time with your significant other
if it's the start of a relationship.
- Mhmm, sure, that could be true.
- Yeah it could be true, for sure.
- Except for exhibit B.
For someone with a job and a new boyfriend
she sure is socializing with a lot of people that ain't you.
- Wait a minute.
I know all these people,
I could definitely have been invited to these events.
- If she really,
wanted to spend time with ya,
she would have reached out the moment she became available.
Especially, since she been canceling on you so much.
- Dammit to hell.
She hates my guts.
Where did I go wrong?
- Can't tell ya.
But I cracked the case for you kid so,
get the hell outta my office,
I got things to do.
- But there's something you haven't considered.
Exhibit C.
- What?
Impossible.
Only I can talk about that.
Hey, get away from my board!
- She likes all my social media posts, look!
Why would she like my stuff if she didn't like me?
Maybe there's hope for us yet.
Maybe,
maybe we were wrong.
(slaps)
- Get it together sweetheart.
She likes everybody's social media, it's what she does.
You're not special.
- Oh.
Yeah, I bet you're right.
Maybe exhibit C was just me trying to have hope.
She's gone forever, I'll never see her again.
- There there it's okay.
It's okay doll.
Whoa, now shut your yap
because I gotta make it to this date at a jazz club.
- But wait.
What about the Lindbergh baby?
- He'll be fine all right.
It's up to me to find him alive
and I'm the best detective there is.
- Okay well at least that will end well.
