Sheriff: You weren't bullied away or anything, were you?

Sheriff: No book?
Ellison Oswalt: No, sir.

Ellison Oswalt: Pool Party '66. [Ellison plays the film reel and finds himself viewing a home video of a sun-lit swimming pool, a family dressed in 1960's fashions playing in it. The film rapidly cuts to the middle of the night; the family members are tied down to lawn chairs and an unseen being pulls them under the water. Their feet move feebly in a struggle to get out of the pool, and Ellison sees a hideous-looking man under the water, smiling at him from the screen]

Ellison Oswalt: Do you know what time it is?
Deputy: Yeah, I know, I've been trying to call you all day.
Ellison Oswalt: What's the problem?
Deputy: The problem is that you moved.
Ellison Oswalt: How is that a problem?
Deputy: I was compiling all the case in chronological order and I've figured out the connection. The dates. Each family who murdered lived in one of the houses where the previous murders took place.
Ellison Oswalt: Each family. All five of them?
Deputy: Yes! And when you look back you can actually draw a line from murder to murder. We knew that the Stephensons lived in the same house where the Millers took place. But I found out that the Millers previously lived in the house where the DeLuzio lawn massacre occurred. Guess where the DeLuzios lived before then?
Ellison Oswalt: Sacramento, California
Ellison Oswalt: Exactly! the pattern goes back to the 1960 Oregon drownings. Mr Oswalt, if you've moved and this guy is still out there, you've not only sped up his timeline. You've put yourself in it
Ellison Oswalt: [numbly]Thanks, Deputy [he terminates the call]
