THE NEXT DAY (A few hours before Fillman and Stvenson's deadline to find the body)
"This is hopeless! I've checked with all the stations, airports, sail ports and roads within the area but there is no sign of the body anywhere. Luggages have been opened, people have been embarrassed and citizens have been angered but the body cannot be found." says Steveson.
"What about the report from CSU? On the morgue investigation?" replies Fillman
"It should come in any minute now"
"Detectives, a citizen just filed a complaint about her luggage being checked at the airport. She sounded extremely pissed." says Eric, who was heading the search team at one of the airports.
"Great! That's just great!" says Stevenson, once Eric leaves.
"Urgghhh!!!!! All this is really frustrating and I desperately need a Starbucks!" says Fillman.
"Okay...I'm game. Let's go"

"Ah! Nothing's better than having a caramel frappuccino from Starbucks!" sighs Fillman
"Nope...my double espresso beats your frappuccino anytime" replies Stvenson
Before Fillman could get a chance to come up with a smart reply, Stevenson's phone rings.
"Hello?" Stevenson talks into his phone
Meanwhile, Fillman looks out of window, thinking about random things when something catches his eye.
"Yo Fillman, the CSU report just came in and the only prints found were-" but he stops short when Fillman suddenly shoots out of Starbucks, dragging him along.
"Whoa!"
"Shut up!" says Fillman, as both of them crouch behind a bush. "Steve, look at that lady" he says while pointing at a figure on the opposite side of the street.
"Who? What are you talking a about..??" He follows Fillman's finger and he's shocked. "No-no-no...that doesn't make any sense."
Stevenson couldn't believe his eyes because there standing across the street was a woman in sunglasses who looked creepily familiar. That woman was supposed to be dead.
She couldn't be Lilly Lieberman? Or could she??
