Quotes 

• Valerie Adams : I was pissed. The girl kept ducking out of all the official tour activities.

  Detective Frank Cosgrove : As her host, that could have got you in trouble.

  Valerie Adams : That's what I told her, not that it did any good. The first day, she took off to meet up with someone and stayed out all night.

  Detective Jalen Shaw : She tell you where she was going?

  Valerie Adams : No, but she was obviously partying. She showed up the next morning super hungover.

  Detective Jalen Shaw : And you didn't report this to anyone?

  Valerie Adams : I wasn't happy about it, but I wasn't gonna narc on her. It sounded like she came from a really conservative family. So I guess it's not that surprising she wanted to have a little fun.

  Detective Frank Cosgrove : Why'd you two get in a fight?

  Valerie Adams : She was supposed to come with me to a class this morning, but she told me she had something she had to go do and asked me to cover for her again. So I let her have it.

  Detective Frank Cosgrove : But you still signed her in.

  Valerie Adams : [confused and a bit worried]  Am I in trouble?

  Detective Jalen Shaw : Did she mention who she was meeting up with?

  Valerie Adams : No, but I do know that whoever she met with that first day, she met them at Evo Café in Midtown. She needed my help figuring out how to get there.

• Moira Sever : Becca was supposed to be sitting in on a class from 10:00 to 12:00 p.m. today, and according to the sign-in sheet, she was.

  Detective Frank Cosgrove : Obviously, Becca skipped out.

  Moira Sever : Honestly, I'm not surprised. I didn't get the vibe she was really interested in attending here.

  Detective Jalen Shaw : According to her family, she was hellbent on coming here despite their protests.

  Moira Sever : I don't know what to tell you. I try to plan a tour that's both fun and exciting for our prospects, but Becca just didn't seem into it.

  Detective Jalen Shaw : Did you notice anything else unusual during her visit?

  Moira Sever : This morning in the dining hall, I interrupted an argument between Becca and Valerie, the student hosting her for the week.

  Detective Frank Cosgrove : Do you know what the fight was about?

  Moira Sever : No. I asked, and they said it was nothing. But Valerie did not look happy.
