Wade?

Your son.

How do you know him?

I'm his friend. Well sort of. He came back to town a couple days ago.
HARRY:
Is that right? How is he?
SHANE:He's dead.
HARRY:
What are you talking about?
SHANE:
He was murdered. Him, my girlfriend, my brother, and our friend
Monica. The killer is still unknown so far.
HARRY:
Well the person you should call is Detective Tapp.
TAPP: (v. o)
He didn't have to, Harry.

HARRY:
You have no business here.

Oh, I think I do. When was the last time you seen your son?

HARRY:
Three years ago. Before he left.
TAPP:
So you haven't seen him at all since he came back?
HARRY:
No.
TAPP:
So you had no idea that he was a suspect for the murder of Monica
Rose?
HARRY:
Monica? You think Wade killed Monica?
TAPP:
Well we did. Up until we found him dead last night along with some
other bodies. And I know you have a history for being charged with
murder.
SHANE:
What?
TAPP:
Long story.
HARRY:
What exactly are you saying, Detective?
TAPP:
I'm saying I think you know something that you're not telling me.

Wakefeild woman's attack. But when we got there she was already
dead. So we looked in the basement where we seen John Wakefeild
standing over his dead father's body. And I had my new partner with
