Eric was about to go down into Valerie's basement when she grabbed him by the shoulder and pulled him back up. He turned around and looked at her stunned. It was obvious she was hiding something but what could it be. Maybe, Donna and Marissa were down there; hopefully they were alive and okay. Eric was now more determined than ever to go down into that basement. He pushed Valerie's arm off of his shoulder and continued to go down there. This time however, Valerie grabbed him again and threw him down to the ground. Eric hit his head on the tile and fell unconscious.
"Well, now look at what we have here. An unconscious annoying pest; what should I do with this annoying pest. I know, I'll dispose of him." Valerie said.
Valerie went into her kitchen to get a knife but she heard screaming coming from her basement. She got up and walked downstairs to see that Marissa had finally been able to get the gag off of her mouth.
"Gosh, can't you just be a good little girl. I have company upstairs and we wouldn't want them to here you now would we?" She asked Marissa.
"I don't care; let me go now." Marissa demanded.
"Look at the little Burkhart girl ordering people around; just like your mother." Valerie said.
She picked up the gag and yanked open the girls mouth; and then shoved it back in. The girl began to cry so she slapped her. Then she went up the stairs to do away with Eric; but when she got there she noticed that he was gone. He had managed to leave the front door open; she went over to the door and slammed it shut. It wouldn't matter what he told the police because they would never come looking here especially when she already had them chasing a false lead.
Eric rushed back to the hospital and searched around for Detective Davies. When he found him he started pounding on his shoulder. The detective was in the middle of a meeting with the Sergeant.
"What can I do for you Mr. Foreman?" He asked Eric.
"I know where Marissa is." Eric stated.
The detective and the sergeant looked at him weirdly before continuing with their conversation. Eric couldn't believe that they were ignoring him when he was telling them very important news.
"Detective Davies, I just told you that I know where Marissa are." Eric said.
"Mr. Foreman we heard you but we are ready know where she is. An officer is going to pick her up as we speak." The detective said.
"Oh good, so you found her in Valerie's basement." Eric said.
"Who's Valerie?" The detective asked.
"The lady that kidnapped Marissa- wait a minute, you never bothered to look check Valerie's house did you?" He asked him.
"Why would we check this Valerie's house when we already know that Marissa is in Michigan with some of her stepfather's relatives? The kidnapper dropped her off in Michigan with her relatives a couple of hours ago." The detective said.
"That doesn't make any sense; I think it would take longer to get to Michigan from here." Eric said.
"Listen Mr. Foreman, I know you are concerned for your friend's daughter's safety but the bottom line is that you are overreacting about a situation that has been dealt with rather calmly." The detective said.
"You guys are such idiots. Marissa isn't in Michigan; you're wasting your time. If you don't hurry and go get her at Valerie's house, like I said before, it might be too late." Eric said.
"Listen Mr. Foreman, we think we know more than you when it comes to kidnappings. If you would just please step aside and let us do our jobs, you'll see that everything is going to be alright." Detective Davies said.
"Yeah fine but don't come crying to me when you finally do realize that she is in Michigan." Eric said and then walked away.
Eric walked into Hyde's room. He had just woken- and was still very weak and sick from the medication. He looked at Eric and gave him a lazy smile to which Eric smiled back at.
"So where are Marissa and Jackie at?" He asked him.
"Hyde, Jackie is in serious condition and Marissa hasn't been found yet." Eric said.
"Wait, Marissa hasn't been found yet?" Hyde asked again in disbelief.
"Yeah Hyde; I'm so sorry." He said to his friend.
"Well do they have any leads?" Hyde said.
"Hyde there's something very important I need to tell you." Eric said.
"What is it?" Hyde asked him.
"I think I know where Marissa is but the cops won't listen to me. They say that her kidnapper dropped her off with relatives in Michigan but I know that not to be true. In fact, I know who the attacker and the kidnapper are." Eric said.
"Well, who are they?" Hyde asked him.
"Isn't they, it's a she; and she is Valerie." Eric said.
"When can I go home?" Marissa asked her kidnapper
"It's funny you should ask that since the answer is never. You're getting a new home." Valerie said.
"Where at?" Marissa asked Valerie.
"I can't tell you until I purchase it." Valerie said.
"I don't want to go anywhere with you." Marissa said.
"Oh, you're not going with me. You're going somewhere very special indeed and in fact, your mother will be joining you." Valerie said.
"Where are my mommy and me going?" Marissa asked Valerie.
"To the memorial cemetery." Valerie replied to Marissa's question.
"Why are we going to the cemetery…" Marissa then realized what Valerie meant by going to the memorial cemetery.
Valerie smiled at the young girl; she patted her on the head and walked out of the basement.
"What do you mean that Valerie took Marissa?" Hyde asked him.
"I mean that Valerie took her and she was the one that attacked you guys yesterday morning." Eric said.
"Well, why aren't the police searching her house right now?" He asked again.
"Because they think that she is in Michigan when she's really downstairs in Valerie's basement." Eric said.
"Well, why don't you go get her then?" Hyde asked him.
"I tried but she through me to the ground and I hit my head and fell unconscious." He said.
"Man, she was able to bring you down." Hyde said.
"Well…not really. You see, I was going down into her basement and she grabbed me from behind and just threw me onto the ground. I pretended to be really hurt; that's when she went into her kitchen to get a knife. I then heard Marissa screaming from downstairs. Valerie went down there quickly and I left to go tell the cops but they won't listen to anything that I've said so far." Eric said.
"If they won't listen to you then; then there's only one thing to do." Hyde said.
"What's that?" Eric asked.
"I'll go get her myself." Hyde said.
"Well, now look at what we have here. An unconscious annoying pest; what should I do with this annoying pest. I know, I'll dispose of him." Valerie said.
Valerie went into her kitchen to get a knife but she heard screaming coming from her basement. She got up and walked downstairs to see that Marissa had finally been able to get the gag off of her mouth.
