The house is quiet.
Brooke sits in the living room with Cameron. She looks uneasy, while Cameron tries to keep the situation calm.
Neither of them notices Cameron’s sister standing nearby.
She watches them carefully.
Something about the situation feels wrong to her.
She quietly takes out her phone and captures a photo of Cameron and Brooke together.
She looks at the picture.
Her expression becomes serious.
CAMERON’S SISTER
What is Brooke doing here?
She looks at Cameron.
Then she looks back at the photo.
She knows Larry needs to know.
Cameron’s sister steps into another room.
She opens her phone and finds Larry’s contact.
She hesitates.
CAMERON’S SISTER
Larry needs to see this.
She sends him the photo.
A moment later, Larry’s phone receives the message.
Larry is sitting quietly when his phone suddenly buzzes.
He checks the message.
The photo appears on his screen.
Larry freezes.
His eyes widen when he sees Brooke sitting inside Cameron’s house.
LARRY
Brooke?
He looks at the photo again.
His expression changes from confusion to worry.
LARRY
Why is she there?
Larry immediately calls Cameron’s sister.
She answers.
CAMERON’S SISTER
Larry, I just took this picture. Brooke is here with Cameron.
LARRY
Are you sure that’s Brooke?
CAMERON’S SISTER
Yes. I saw them together myself.
Larry stands up.
LARRY
Did you ask Cameron why she’s there?
CAMERON’S SISTER
No. I wanted you to know first.
Larry looks at the photo again.
His concern grows.
LARRY
Thank you for sending this to me.
He ends the call.
Larry walks around the room, trying to understand what happened.
He remembers the last time he saw Brooke.
He remembers how suddenly she disappeared.
Now he has proof that she is at Cameron’s house.
Larry picks up the photo again.
His voice becomes serious.
LARRY
Something isn’t right.
He grabs his jacket.
He puts the phone in his pocket.
Then he stops at the door.
His mind races with possibilities.
LARRY
I need to make sure Brooke is safe.
Larry leaves the house.
Larry arrives at the police station.
He quickly walks through the entrance.
A police officer approaches him.
OFFICER
Can I help you?
Larry takes out his phone.
LARRY
Yes. My daughter is missing, and I just found out where she might be.
The officer becomes attentive.
OFFICER
What happened?
Larry shows him the photograph.
LARRY
Someone sent me this picture. My daughter Brooke is at Cameron’s house.
The officer studies the image.
OFFICER
When was this taken?
LARRY
Just a short time ago.
Larry’s voice becomes emotional.
LARRY
She left without telling me, and now I’ve discovered she’s there. I’m worried that she may have been taken there against her will.
The officer nods.
OFFICER
We’ll need some information from you.
Larry immediately agrees.
LARRY
Anything. I just want to know that she’s safe.
Larry sits across from the officer.
He explains everything he knows.
He shows the officer the original photo.
LARRY
This is the picture Cameron’s sister sent me.
OFFICER
Do you know Cameron personally?
LARRY
Yes. But I don’t understand why Brooke is at his house.
The officer writes down the information.
OFFICER
Has Brooke contacted you?
Larry shakes his head.
LARRY
No.
OFFICER
Did she tell you she was going to Cameron’s house?
LARRY
No. That’s why I’m so concerned.
Larry looks at the photograph.
LARRY
I’m her father. I need to know what happened to her.
The officer nods.
OFFICER
We’ll take your statement and determine the appropriate next step.
Larry nods.
Cameron and Brooke are still inside the living room.
Brooke looks toward the window.
She seems unaware that Larry has already seen the photo.
BROOKE
I feel like everything is becoming more complicated.
Cameron looks at her.
CAMERON
You should talk to Larry when you get the chance.
Brooke sighs.
BROOKE
I know.
Cameron’s phone suddenly rings.
He checks the screen.
His expression changes.
CAMERON
It’s Larry.
Brooke looks worried.
BROOKE
What are you going to tell him?
Cameron hesitates.
Before he can answer, the phone stops ringing.
Larry finishes his statement.
He looks at the officer.
LARRY
Please, I just need someone to check on her.
OFFICER
We understand your concern.
Larry shows the officer Cameron’s address.
LARRY
This is where the picture was taken.
The officer takes note of the address.
OFFICER
We’ll review the information you’ve provided.
Larry takes a deep breath.
LARRY
I just hope she’s okay.
The officer reassures him that the situation will be handled according to procedure.
Larry nods.
Larry walks outside.
He looks down at the photo on his phone.
Brooke’s face fills the screen.
His expression softens.
LARRY
Brooke, wherever you are, I just need to know you’re safe.
He puts the phone away.
Larry looks toward the road.
His determination returns.
He knows he cannot ignore what he has discovered.
Brooke sits quietly.
Cameron walks over to her.
CAMERON
Everything is going to be okay.
Brooke looks at him.
BROOKE
I hope so.
Cameron nods.
Neither of them realizes how serious the situation has become.
Meanwhile, Larry has already taken the photograph to the police.
The image that seemed like an ordinary picture has now changed everything.
Larry wants answers.
Brooke wants to explain herself.
And Cameron knows that the truth about why Brooke came to his house may soon come out.
The night grows quieter.
But the tension is only beginning.
