a catatonic mental patient -- the prime suspect in the
case who claims to know the identity of her mother's
killer. With the help of Detective Woodrow Hoyt, she
searches for answers about her mother's murder, and
uncovers Max's painful secret. Meanwhile, a brief family
reunion sends Lily back home to play the good daughter,

- The ending shot in this episode
is a still frame of Jordan running through the rain. This shot was done in

The 400 Blows (Les quatre cent coups,
1959) by François Truffaut. (Thank
you to Allan Arkush for explaining this)

Quotes:
Jordan: It sounds like I’m nuts.
Dr. Stiles: Well I won’t quarrel with you there.
Garret: I asked you not to go back to Summit
View.
Jordan: Actually it sounded more like an order.
(Nigel has his coat on turning everything off, ready to
leave, Jordan enters)
Jordan: Take off your coat. You’re staying.
Nigel: Anyone ever tell you you’re a kill joy?
Jordan: (Woody is painting his thumbnail with
clear polish) I would have thought pink was more your
color.
Woody: It's uh--It's not what it looks like. I
broke a nail.
Jordan: Don't worry about it. Your secret's safe
with me. Anyway, I didn't come here to discuss your
proclivities.
Woody: I know that look.
Jordan: What look is that?
Woody: The 'let me see if I can slam my head
against this wall without feeling it look. Haven't you
been in enough trouble lately?
Jordan: Actually, I'm just getting started.
Woody: And I guess you want to drag me down with
you.
Jordan: I can not tell a lie, Woody. I need a
favor-- and no questions asked.
Woody: My favorite kind. And I guess you expect
me to just roll over and do what you say, is that it?
Even though you know it's my ass that's going to be
handed back to me on a platter, is that what you expect?
Woody: Jordan, what's this all about?
Jordan: I can't tell you.
Woody: Can't or won't?
Jordan: Both.
Woody: I got your page, so where's the fire?
Jordan: I need the knife.
Woody: What?
Jordan: From the Redding murders.
Woody: Why are you asking me? I don't have it.
Jordan: I know! It's in the evidence storage. I
need you to sign it out for me.
Woody: Are you kidding? Jordan, this is not a
game, and if you know what's good for you,
you'll--you'll drop this whole stupid thing right now.
Jordan: So, you're not going to help me out?
Woody: No, I'm not going to help you. Harcourt
almost tore me a new one when he found out I helped you
get that file. I help you, I get in trouble.
Jordan: Well, too bad, because right now that's
the kind of help I need.
(Jordan screams as she turns and sees a male figure in
the cabin)
Woody: It's me! It's me! It's me! It's me!
Jordan: How'd you get here?
Woody: I followed you. If you'd just tell me what
you're doing in the first place. What are you doing out
here?
Jordan: Looking for answers.
Woody: Answers to what?
Jordan: My mother's murder.
Woody: (after he & Jordan have uncovered the
Redding bodies) Okay, you were never here Jordan. Okay?
You understand me? You were never here and you never saw
any of this, okay? I'm going to take care of this
Jordan.
Woody: You going someplace? You're going after
him, aren't you?
Jordan: He knows who killed my mother.
Woody: He played you Jordan! Think about this!
Those two murders down at the mental hospital--my guess
is he's responsible for those too. And if he's smart,
he's long gone by now. Probably out of the country.
Jordan: Then it's going to be a long trip. Now,
if you'll excuse me.
Woody: Hey Jordan! I thought we were friends! I
thought we were getting to know each other.
Jordan: There's some things you can't ever know.
Woody: Hey--Hey--Hey--Hey--just talk to me about
it. Please.
Jordan: I can't.
Woody: I'll help you find him.
Jordan: What?
Woody: I'll go with you. We'll do this together.
Jordan: No, that's crazy.
Woody: You don't have to ask for my help. Jordan,
I'll give it to you. I can be your friend.
Jordan: I was only 10.
Woody: What?
Jordan: It's not fair.
Garret: I asked you not to go back to Summit View.
Jordan: Actually it sounded more like an order.
(Nigel has his coat on turning everything off, ready to
leave, Jordan enters)
Jordan: Take off your coat. You’re staying.
Nigel: Anyone ever tell you you’re a kill joy?
Jordan: It sounds like I’m nuts.
Dr. Stiles: Well I won’t quarrel with you there.
