S3E12: I Found You

Morning
[Hallie's house]
*Hallie walked into the living room, looking down at her phone.*

Hallie: Morning Steven.

*She noticed there was no response, so she looked up and saw that he wasn't there. She walked to the room he was staying in.*

Hallie: Steven?

*He wasn't there. She called his name a few more times, but still no response. She called him, but it went straight to voicemail. So, she called Nina.*

Nina: Hello?

Hallie: Is Steven there?

Nina: No. I thought he was with you.

Hallie: What? Hand the phone to Jo.

Nina: I'll put it on speaker.

*Nina put her phone on speaker. Nina and Jo shared Jo's queen bed. They had just woken up.*

Jo: Hey.

Hallie: Steven's not there?

Jo: No, why?

Hallie: Okay... this is bad.

Nina: Why?

Hallie: He's not here!

Nina: Okay? He probably just went out for something.

Jo: Yeah.

Hallie: No, you don't understand. Last night he was telling me he wanted to go to Colorado with Nathan and Nancy.

Nina: Are you serious?

Jo: What, that's like a fifteen hour car ride.

Hallie: I know. I mean, if this is true, and someone sees him at a gas station, or a bathroom break, and it gets out-

Nina: Okay, just relax. I'm sure that won't happen.

Hallie: There's a reason we decided to be so strict about our locations.

Nina: I know, I know.

Hallie: I mean, it's easy to make it look like we're in LA, because we are. But if Steven's here, everyone will think Nathan's here, because they go everywhere together. And if Nathan's here, everyone will think Nancy is here.

Jo: She's right.

Nina: Are we even sure that's where he is?

Jo: Watch him come home in like five minutes.

Hallie: I don't think so.

Nina: I mean, what can we do? We can't follow him or try to find him.

Hallie: But-

Jo: I think we should just hang low, and not make a bigger deal. Let's just act like everything is normal, and we should be fine.

Hallie: Yeah. I guess you're right.

Jo: Okay. Come over today.

Hallie: I can't, I have some work to do. Maybe for dinner.

Jo: Okay, bye.

Hallie: Bye.

*Nina hung up.*

That Same Time
[Colorado]
*Nathan came down the stairs, scratching his bed head.*

Nancy: Good morning. Sleep well?

Nathan: Morning, yeah.

*Nancy was in the kitchen, washing dishes from the night before. She was hand washing two wine glasses. She flipped them over on a towel to dry on the counter. She picked up a wine bottle to put it back, only to realize it was empty.*
