"Martin, you got anything?" Danny asked.

Martin sighed, "Recently the only serious thing that comes up...well the only thing that needed treatment was disclocated shoulder and several broken ribs, from falling down stairs. When she was younger, 18, she was in a pretty major car accident and suffered a miscarriage."

"You think it was David that she was pregnant to before?" asked Danny.

"The timing seems about right from what we know." replied Vivian. Inwardly she sighed, poor girl suffering a miscarriage that young, and having to live with that man. It seemed like the abuse had been going on for a while then.

"What did the husband say?" asked Martin.

"He admitted to lying, and said that they had an argument last night and that she left." said Danny.

Vivian sighed. "We have to find her." She glanced at the clock on the wall. "She's been missing 21 hours."

"If she left of her own free will, we may not find her." said Martin.

Vivian nodded. "Yeah I know." Vivian sighed. If you had told her a few months ago that she would be looking for Samantha, she wouldn't have believed you. She had liked Samantha, she had seemed a genuinely kind and friendly person. And she had been great with Reggie, Reggie usually disliked babysitters- he felt he was too old. But him and Samantha had got on great. She had a way with kids. She had always prided herself on being observant, being able to pick up on the samll things, she couldn't believe she didn't notice any signs of abuse. Well, she guessed Samantha had learnt to hide it very well.

Jack came back in. "Well David went home. We're just going to have to keep an eye on him."

Vivian wrote the argument onto the timeline on the missing persons board. "Okay, you're a pregnant woman running away from your abusive husband, where do you go?" she asked the others.

They looked stumped.

"Well I would have said friends, but we don't know about any." said Danny after a pause.

"I think we should talk to the people she works with again." said Jack. "Danny, you and Martin want to head over there."

"Sure." replied Martin grabbing his coat.

"We'll be back soon." said Danny.

"Viv, what do you think?"

Vivian sighed, "I gotta say, she could be anywhere. And if she doesn't want to be found...I doubt we will."

"I know." replied Jack. "She's probably better off with a husband like that."

Vivian nodded. She looked at Samantha Spade's picture. "She looks so sad." she commented. "Imagine having to spend 10 years of your life living like that. I never knew, she hid it well."

"I wonder why she didn't leave sooner."

Vivian raised an eyebrow. "I'd guess it would be fear, you hear about things like this all the time. Usually it's fear that they will catch you trying to leave, or fear that they will find you- God knows what could happen. Let's just hope that David doesn't find Samantha. And she obviously isn't that close with her family, so it's not like she could really go to them for help."

Jack nodded, he smiled sadly and patted Vivian on the back before going to his office, leaving Vivian looking sadly at the picture wondering what they were missing.

"Hi, did you find her?" Kelly asked Danny recognising him from when he had been there earlier.

Danny shook his head. "We're still looking, we found some things that might help but we still need to ask you a few questions."

"Sure." she replied, leading them to an empty table at the restaurant.

"Firstly, this is my partner Agent Fitzgerald. We were wondering if there was any possibility that Samantha was having an affair?"

"God no." Kelly shook her head. "She wouldn't. Why?"

"You know you said that she was acting different last Friday?"

She nodded.

"She found out she was pregnant."

"Oh." said Kelly shocked.

"Her husband found out about this, and he said they had an argument and we were wondering if the argument was about the baby's father." carried on Danny. "He said that she left after the argument."

"She definitely wasn't having an affair, I'm postive." said Kelly determinedly.

Danny nodded. "Okay."

"Who are Samantha's friends here? I'm going to need to talk to them, see if Samantha contacted them." said Martin.

"Like I said earlier, she's not extremely close with any of them, but she talks to Claire Westford and Sophie Boyd the most. Sophie's away visiting her family, she's due back late this evening- she'll be in around 8 tomorrow. Claire is in the kitchen." said Kelly.

"Alright. Excuse me." said Martin heading towards the kitchen.

Kelly sighed and looked at Danny. "Do you think David did something to her?"

"I honestly don't know." he replied. "Can you think of anything at all? Please."

She frowned. "No, I'm sorry."

"Okay, thank you. If you do please call." he said handing her their calling card.

"I will."

"Claire Westford?" asked Martin going into the kitchen.

A young girl standing there nodded.

"I'm Agent Fitzgerald, with the FBI." he said showing his badge. "I was wondering if you could tell me anything about Samantha. As I'm sure you know she's missing."

She nodded.

"Has she contacted you recently?"

"Not recently, I don't see her much out of work."

"Has she been acting strangely over the past few days?"

She shook her head, "She seemed to be herself, it's hard to tell. I mean with some people you can tell, because they close off or whatever. But Samantha's never really been that open, she's a great friend and all but she's quite private I guess you could say. I don't think she trusts people that easily, I mean she doesn't have many really close friends that she would confide in a lot. She's quite close with Sophie."

"Right." said Martin. "Have you met David, her husband?"

She shook her head again. "No, but I once heard Kelly and Sophie talking about him. I didn't get much, but they were worried that he was hurting Samantha."

"Okay. Thank you." said Martin.

"She'll be alright though?" she asked worriedly.

"We hope so." replied Martin with a small smile.

Martin met up with Danny, who was by the car on the phone. He carried on talking for a few moments, signalling to Martin to wait.

"That was Viv, they found the car. It was found broken down on the side of the road about 15 blocks from here. Viv said the district PD found it, there's no sign of her. They think she got out and walked."

"So another dead end." sighed Martin.

"Yeah. I said we'd come back to talk to Sophie tomorrow morning, hopefully that will give us something." said Danny getting into the drivers seat of the car.

"What did you get from Claire?" he asked once they were in and began driving back to the office.

"Not a lot. Samantha didn't get in touch with her for help though."

"Looks like Sophie's our last option. Too bad we have to wait till tomorrow to talk to her." said Danny.
