A week and a half later, Kate is feeling helpless. With her mom watching her like a hawk, she’s unable to meet Shep. She then learns that Shep is going to take a deal. If he pleads guilty, he’ll get manslaughter with a cap of 20 years in prison (a second-degree murder conviction could mean life in prison). He will enter his guilty plea the next day at nine o’clock in the morning. Kate is desperate to do something.
Kate looks at old photos related to the case. Looking at a picture of Grant and Henry on the back patio at River Point, she notices something huge: The chair the boys are sitting on has a small swirl-like design, matching the pattern she saw in the photo of Bree Holder and the other girls. Kate now knows the photo was taken at River Point and, undoubtedly, by one of the River Point Boys.
Shortly after, Kate happens to run into Lori, the dark-haired girl who got into a fight with Grant—and who Henry defended—the night before Grant died. Kate tells Lori she’s working for the DA’s office and asks her some questions. The girl confirms that she was angry at Grant because she suspected that he was the one behind the photos.
