BETTY CARROLL: Mare? Mare, you out there?
Oh, you're here.
I'm here.
BETTY: I wanted to make sure you knew about this right away
so the community's safe
in case the pervert is still on the loose.
Well, next time, you just call the station.
-Do you have the main number? -I don't remember.
But-- but I trust you,
and I don't know who the station will send over.
I understand, but I'm a detective sergeant,
which means I investigate the burglaries and the overdoses
and all the really bad crap that goes on around here.
Sounds awful.
Maybe you should look into a different line of work.
Here it is, Mrs. Carroll. See this?
That's the main station number, all right?

I'll put it right in the center.
So you call them, okay,
next time, instead of waking me up.
So, there's the scene of the crime,
as they say in your business.
My granddaughter was upstairs
getting undressed to take a shower
when she looked out the window and "Ahh!"
There he is. He was standing right out there.
One of those creepy peeper weirdos.
MARE: Did your granddaughter say anything about him or...
He was wearing a hooded sweatshirt
so it was hard to get much of his face,
but from what she could see, he looked like a ferret.
-MARE: A ferret? -That's what she said.
Is that a security camera up there?
Oh, yes. We bought that at Best Buy three months ago,
but Mr. Procrastinator hasn't figured out
how to use it yet. Big surprise.
And where is your granddaughter now?
Oh, she was scared to death,
so she hightailed it back to Allentown.
She didn't wanna stay around here
with a ferret on the loose.
All right. Well, uh,
I'll file a report and, uh, make sure patrol's aware.
I'm half tempted to leave as well,
but then I'd have to go to my sister's place in Ridley,
and she has cats.
Oh, I hate cats.
-No, I get that, Mrs. Carroll. -They are disgusting animals.
-You know, they're all bones. -Good morning, Mare.
-Mr. Carroll. -Did Betty tell you
what happened here this morning with the weirdo?
-Oh, of course. -Mrs. Carroll filled me in.
Of course I told her what happened.
The whole case would've been solved
if you had been able to figure out
how to set up the security camera.
-I told you I was going to do that today. -All right, I'm gonna...
-head back to the station now and file a report. -(OVERLAPPING ARGUING)

Hi.
Anyone being mean to you in school?
No.
Hmm. I hope you're not lying to me.
No. Everyone's really nice.
'Cause you know, if they're not being nice,
I'm gonna have to come over and arrest them.

Um, did you see Dawn on the news this morning?
Yes. I was hoping you didn't catch that.
You know, it's not about you. She just misses her daughter.
-I know, but-- -You know, Mare,
she's got stuff going on. You know, cancer treatment.
Yeah.
I'd only say this to you, Lor.
We're never gonna find her. Never.
She's a needle in a thousand fucking haystacks.
Yeah, I would keep that to yourself.
We gotta go. It's 7:35.

You guys should really come out west for a visit.
Mare, we got plenty of room. Lor, you've been to my house.

Lor, remember how much fun we had at the wedding?
-That was quite a weekend. -Oh, she had a blast.
You know, she never stops talking about that wedding.
The jumbo shrimp. Oh! Yeah. To die for.
