Barbieville Police Department
Lynch: Adding Candy Pike skews our victim profile. She's only got two of these things in common, and one of them just barely. And she was nowhere near water, so we can ignore that little side note.
Carol: She wasn't college educated or "a strong personality". Is that code for something?
Lynch: Absolutely. (chuckles) Helena was a nice enough lady until you wronged her, but Charlie was a total bitch. Candy, on the other hand, is very mellow. She has made something of a name for herself in the photojournalism field, so she's a professional, but since she's free-lance, she doesn't really have an office or any of the trappings. And she's a mother.
Carol: And we have a connection between her sons and one of Helena Malfoy's daughters. They're in a band, correct?
Midge (from across the room): Alright, ladies, the lab's sent over the go-pro footage. Shall we see what we've got?
Lynch: I hope we can see the tag. Candy remembered the FCP part because that's two of her boys' initials, but she didn't get the number. A partial is better than nothing, but still...
Midge: A good look at the driver would be nice, too.
Carol: Let's not get our hopes up. (Midge starts the video, then pauses before Lynch can ask.) There's your tag.
Lynch: FCP 409, Doll County. Got it. (She gestures for Midge to continue, winces as the video continues.) Was that the windshield? Did Candy actually look the guy in the face?
After a few tries, Midge manages to stop the video on the split-second Carol noticed.
Midge: Well, Agent Danvers, what were you saying about getting our hopes up? It's blurry, but who does that look like to you?
Lynch: Paris Malfoy
Carol: James Potter

Later, as the crew closes Sunburst for the night
RM: Sure you don't wanna come home with us? Daddy Jimin won't be home to poop on our party.
Zenobia: I'm exhausted. Everyone in the state decided to eat here!
Tris: I have a husband.
V: No one propositioned you, Tris. You can have Four meet us there, if that'll... (A sports car comes careening into the lot and the driver jumps out.)
Zenobia: Boo? Boo, what's going on?
V: I don't know she had a boo. I thought she was footloose and fancy-free.
Tris: That's her sister. Boudicca.
RM: Damn. Do all the Malfoy girls look that good?
Boudicca: You've got to get out of town, Zen. Take my car.
Zenobia: Calm down. It can't be that bad.
Boudicca: The cops are at the house. That van that hit Mom, they got the plate number. It comes back to you!
Zenobia: That's nuts. I don't even have a car, I haven't since... (realization) ... oh, shit.
