Hi, Thony, Fiona. It's good to see you both again.
Detective Flores, what brings you here so late?
Mind if I come in?
Um... Y-Yeah, of course.
I just wanted to let you know
that we have some new information in Marco's case.
The manager of the motel where Marco died
has been missing for over a week now.
Oh. Well, I'm really sorry,
but what does it have to do with Marco?
His name is Jon Price, and we're treating him
as a person of interest in Marco's death.
Y-You think he killed him?
Well, we don't think his disappearance is a coincidence.
If Jon Price had anything to do with Marco's death,
he may have run be he was afraid of getting caught.
We are broadening our search,
interviewing anyone that's been
in or out of the motel for the past few weeks.
Fiona: How do you do that?
The motel keeps records of people who stayed there?
Yes, and we've been through those.
But we also searched Jon Price's apartment
and found some personal videos.
Apparently, he's been making secret recordings at the motel.
Uh, videos, seriously?
D-Did you come across these videos before?
Well, when we asked for security footage that night,
Jon never handed anything over.
Now we know why.
We're still going through the footage of what we found,
but what we've seen is pretty damning.
There is a possibility that if Marco had an altercation
that night, it may have been recorded.
I-I know this is a lot.
I just want to let you know that we are not giving up.
We will find out how your loved one died.

No, Kamdar's too smart to put himself
in a risky situation like that.
