Ethan helped the frightened woman stand.
Ethan: “Tell me exactly what happened.”
Woman: “Clara came into the room and locked me inside.”
Clara shook her head.
Clara: “Ethan, she's lying.”
Woman: “Why would I lie about something like this?”
Clara: “Because you want everyone to believe I'm guilty.”
Ethan looked at the chest.
The lock was lying on the floor.
Ethan: “Where did you get this lock?”
The woman hesitated.
Woman: “It was already there.”
Ethan noticed the little girl staring at the floor.
Ethan: “Sweetheart, did you see anything?”
The girl nodded slowly.
Girl: “I saw someone carrying the key.”
Everyone became silent.
Ethan: “Who?”
The girl looked toward the woman who had been inside the chest.
Girl: “Her.”
The woman immediately became nervous.
Woman: “She's confused.”
Clara looked at Ethan.
Clara: “Now you understand.”
Ethan still needed proof.
He walked toward the security room.
Ethan: “We're checking the cameras.”
