Daphne put the key into the lock and opened the door of her house. She entered and Cas followed her inside. Zoey had come by at the hospital with some clothes, on Daphne’s request.
Daphne entered the kitchen and wasn’t surprised to see her sister sitting there.
“Hi” Zoey said, looking up from her laptop. “I see you brought Mister I don’t have a name home”
Daphne gave her sister a ‘cut it off’ look. “Zoey’s staying here for a few days” she explained to Cas. “She and Gerard are divorced and Alexia, my adorable niece, is staying with her father for the time being. Zoey doesn’t like being alone, so she keeps me company”
Cas nodded, not sure what to do or say.
“Hey, can you move? I need to do something” Daphne said to Zoey.
“Sure, it’s your house” Zoey said and she got up. Daphne sat down and pulled another chair next to her. She waved at Cas. “Come sit”
Cas walked towards her and sat down. He looked like he had been sentenced to death.
“Could you lose the face?” Zoey asked. “I see those clothes fit you well. They were our brother’s”
“You have a brother?” Cas asked curious.
“Later” Daphne said.
“I’d love to meet him” Cas continued.
“I said later” Daphne said a little sharp. She looked angry at Zoey, but she wasn’t intimidated at all.
“What? If he’s really going to hang around here, don’t you think he needs to know?” she said and she turned to Cas. “Martin died four years ago. He drowned” she said upfront. She grabbed her keys and purse. “I’m going to do some groceries. You guys need anything?”
Cas shook his head, but Daphne focused on the screen. Zoey left and Daphne conjured a smile. “Okay, here we go”
She was already on the internet and now she typed in some words. Next thing they were on a site called babynames.com. She rotated to Cas. “Ready to get a name?”

Isabel opened hearing two where inspector Anderson was still sitting with Andy. She signed and Anderson walked towards. She mumbled something to him and she and Anderson looked at Andy. Andy took a deep breath. He had a bad feeling about this.
Anderson walked behind Andy and ordered him to stand up. He cuffed him. “Andy Baker, I arrest you for the murder on Shannen White”
“What? But I didn’t kill her! I’m innocent!” Andy shouted. Anderson motioned at the guard who walked to them. He took Andy’s arm with a firm grip and forced him out of the room. When they were on the hallway, Andy saw Zoey and Cas standing a few yards further.
“He’s the one! He killed her! He’s the one you’re looking for!” he yelled.
“Mr. Allen has an alibi” Isabel said.
“No! He’s lying! He lies about everything! Emmanuel is not even his real name!” Andy yelled, while the guard dragged him along.
