- We're getting an update

on a crime in Terrace Beach.

Police are searching for a k*ller tonight

after a woman was found

m*rder*d in her hotel room

earlier this week.

We're hearing exclusively

from friends of the victim.

- [Reporter] These friends

are at once devastated

and shocked, trying to

wrap their brain around it.

One thing they found

especially difficult, they say,

is the lack of information

coming from law enforcement

officials piecing together

the events leading up

to the moment their

friend was found lifeless

at the Carter Hotel here in Terrace Beach.

(energetic music on TV)

- [Announcer] Hey, thanks for watching.

Don't miss "The Today Show,"

every weekend (indistinct).

- [Reporter] Absolutely

nothing would've ever led them

to believe a friend, a coworker,

would become a homicide victim.

The son told local news

that his mom lived at the hotel

with her boyfriend while

working at a remodeling

and construction project on the premises.

Police and hotel management

have been tightlipped

and will not confirm the name

of the victim, how she died,

or who might be responsible.

(tense music continues)

So much of the information

we're getting about this case is

coming from the family, friends,

and those who cared for her.

We can tell you that we

reached back in with police.

They reiterated that

they do not believe there is

any threat to the public.

If you do have any

information about the case,

give crime tips a call.

That number will be on your screen.

It's 315-472-TIPS.

Reporting to you love

tonight in Terrace Beach,

(door opening) I'm Tara Sims,

over to Teddy Williams.

(tense music continues)

(bell ringing) (door rumbling)

- Hi, I'm here to check in.

- This is a a private event.

There's an elevator

bank right up at the lobby

for guests of the hotel.

(bell ringing) (patrons chattering)

- Ma'am, ma'am, exhibitors

need to go down the hallway,

exit through the doors,

and you'll find the exhibitor entrance.

That's where you'll load in and load out.

- For real?

- I don't make the rules.

(light music) (bell ringing)

- Yeah. So if you just give us a call,

any consultation, we'll

take care of everything.

- Hello.

- You said you didn't have any more of

those first aid kit of yours in the back.

- [Man] I didn't know.

- That's my fault.

I was actually hiding it

back there for you, Ms. Lopez.

For the kids.

- I can't take all this.

- Please. You'd be helping me.

- Yeah, it saves us the cost in shipping.

- Well, I hope to see you again.

- [Audrey] You definitely will.

- The whole box.

You know, I, I knew those were back there.

I just figured she should

probably take some of this stuff.

I, I mean, the numbers

aren't gonna match up with

however many people came by here.

- Hm.

High traffic prospects

have large portfolio,

many managers, operators,

assistance, FUC Suite,

many trick or treaters.

First aid kit were a hit.

Great expl*si*n for the brand

as many have not heard of our product.

We should attend again next year.

Send it to myself.

- For the kids.

- It's gonna be okay.

And plus it just came to me.

It's on her badge.

Plus I don't have to haul

all these things back upstairs.

- Yeah, you, you know,

I would've helped you.

Where were you anyway?

- Not having your help?

I don't know. Like, you

know the forms, the BOL.

Gives us 45 minutes back.

- Oh, well look at you, Miss Event Planner.

- First aid kit?

- Zero.

- Well, congrats.

- Thank you.

- On the promotion?

Come on. How am I supposed to know?

I, I work in sales.

It's not like you know what I do.

Okay. You probably do,

but you know what I can do?

- Hmm?

- I can buy you a drink. Celebrate.

- And put my time saved in vain

for miss First aid kit over here?

- I mean, how many first

aid kit does one person need?

- Well, it helps her save money.

- Hey, didn't that girl

used to work here before?

- The one at our competitor?

- Yeah.

- Oh, that makes sense.

She was glaring at me earlier.

- Quit and go to the other

company's pretty ballsy.

- Maybe she has rent.

- And things we do for rent.

- That's called adulting.

- And the things we don't do for rent.

- Same thing.

- Is it really though?

I mean, come on there.

They can't be paying that much more.

(indistinct) spiteful.

Yeah. Obviously she didn't

wanna be a part of the team.

- Someone's been drinking the Kool-Aid.

Hey, Ian. - What's up?

- What's up?

- You sure you don't wanna come for drinks?

- No, I have plans. Thank

you for the invite though.

- All right.

- Get outta here and have some fun.

(crowd chattering)

(tense music)

(elevator rings)

(knocking on door)

(door creaks)

(dramatic music)

(woman panting)

(door clicking)

- Hey, Miles.

- So I see you never learned

the lesson about knocking.

- (chuckles) Pops, why would I knock, man?

What you got, got some

women back there, sir?

- Ooh, you never know, son.

(chuckles) You know your dad still got it.

As a matter of fact,

I just a new lady at the

grocery store the other day.

- Of course you did.

But didn't we have this

conversation before Pops,

about those women

that work in those stores?

They just being nice.

- (laughing) They're just being nice.

Yeah, yeah.

So what do I owe the honor of this visit?

Surely it's not about my love life.

- So a son just can't come

by and see his old man?

There gotta be a reason.

- 'Cause an old man knows his son.

- I told you, I don't need

you coming over here checking

up on me all the time.

Surely you must have better things to do

or shouldn't you be at work or something?

- Yeah, I'm about to head

over there right now, Pops.

I gotta be honest with you though, man.

I'm a little concerned

about these bills, Pops.

What's going on with you?

- Look, I told you, stop

worrying about my finances.

I'm doing fine.

I've been doing fine

since before you were born.

Instead of worrying about my money,

you should be worried about

bringing me some grandkids

to run around this place.

- Seriously. That's what,

that's what we doing?

- What's been doing? - Come on, Pops.

I don't want no problems

today. Not, not today.

Pops, come on, please. (Edgar laughing)

I'm, I'm gonna take care of these, right?

And then I'm gonna call you later

and we gonna go have dinner.

- Okay.

- (laughing) Love you, man.

- Good. Now go.

Next time knock.

(Victor laughing)

Go.

(tense music)

- Thank you.

Hello?

(tense music continues)

- Oh, hey. I thought you

had an event this week

and I didn't want your

food to go bad, so...

- No, it's not until two days

from now, but that's fine.

Don't think I'm gonna eat that anyways.

- Well, figured.

You want me to swing by

and water your plants while you're gone?

- (indistinct) this trip

is gonna be uneventful.

Just gonna stay at the hotel, work, hotel.

- Okay. The bag looks a

little full for hotel, work, hotel.

- If you're gonna water the plants,

make sure you make up the bed too, please.

- Okay.

(people laughing)

(woman laughing)

- Oh, man.

I heard you really stuck your foot

in the old mouth this time.

How are you gonna close

a deal that big by the end

of the quarter?

And you staked your job on it?

Who does that?

- Apparently me.

I was just sick of hearing about

how great they're doing

in the Chicago office

and why can't we bring

in those types of clients?

- Well, Excelsior's out.

So are Ralphs and Bats.

They just signed a deal with Halon.

I'd say McDonough,

but good luck getting a

meeting with one of them.

They're too busy being

snobs and doing keynotes.

- Gimme a minute.

(tense music)

(footsteps falling)

V.?

- [V] ff Yeah.

- Been a long time.

- Victor?

Yeah. Is everything okay?

You all right?

- I know things ended weird between us,

but I'm not even calling him about that.

I promise you.

I just, I actually need a favor.

- Yeah, you all right?

- Kind of got some sh*t going on at work

and I need to land an account

and they're gonna be at your convention,

McDonough and Associates,

and I'm pretty sure you could

get me the credentials.

- Sure, I can do that.

Be at the hotel capstone

at 9:00 AM in the lobby?

- Thank you V.

- [Vi] No problem. Don't be late.

(tense music)

(keys clicking)

(patrons chattering) (dishes clacking)

- Here you go.

How are our salads tasting so far today?

- This chicken was severely undercooked.

- Our sincere apologies.

We can take that for you.

- Excuse me. What do

you think you're doing?

- This guest. Her chicken is undercooked.

We're gonna send it back.

- I'm the floor manager here

and I know all my servers.

You two need to get out.

If I see you two guys

again, I'm calling the cops.

- Is this what you do for fun?

(tense music)

(elevator ringing)

- [Man] I'm glad we ran into each other.

- So am I.

- We should hang out.

- I agree.

- Let's grab a drink. - Okay.

- I look forward to it.

- Yeah, same. (chuckles)

- [Vi] You guys make a cute couple.

- Do you have any bath bubbles?

- Yes, they're complimentary.

We also have pillows.

- Advil just isn't gonna

do it for this migraine.

- [Vi] I can bring you some.

- I'm room 1302.

(tense music)

(distant siren blaring)

(tense music) (shutter clicking)

- [Vince] About how

long has she been in here?

- The hotel manager says

she's been staying in this room

for the past three nights.

The cleaning lady had found

her like this this morning.

- Tell the hotel to keep

this as quiet as possible.

Also, I need to talk to every staff member

who may have been on this

floor for the past few days.

- Got it. I don't think this is

something they're gonna

wanna put on the advertisement.

- Mm. How many does

that make in the last month?

All in hotels too.

There's an ugly pattern starting.

(plane engine rumbling)

(soft pop music playing on speaker)

- Victor, hey.

- Hey. - How's it going?

- Long time, no, see.

- Yeah.

- Thank you. Thank

you for doing this for me.

It really means a lot.

(laughing) Wow.

- Of course. Happy to help.

Plus it puts my hobbies into use.

Now that should get

you in all the sessions.

I took a look at the McDonald's schedule

and it looks like he's gonna

be there at the keynote.

However, if you happen

to be in the green room,

you might just find him there.

- Well, yeah, I can't thank you enough.

Uh, you wanna get dinner?

- Sorry, I can't.

Plans tonight. Work stuff.

- [Victor] Gotcha.

(tense music)

(elevator dings)

(patrons chattering)

- Check please.

- Wait, don't you work here?

You know we're not supposed to be

sitting at the bar when we're busy.

- I think you're mistaking

me for someone else.

- [Bartender] You're the

girl I saw doing tray service

the other morning, right?

- She for sure doesn't work here, sir,

but could you grab me a whiskey neat?

- Yeah.

- You can put hers on mine.

Sorry for sneaking up on you.

Saw you when I was walking past the lobby.

- Really? Was there

something else you need?

- No, not at all. I just

just wanted to thank you.

I did what you said. I

lurked by the green room.

I met the CFO McDonough.

V, I sold him on the spot.

It's huge.

- Well, I'm glad that worked

out for you. What's next?

- I mean, I guess this little celebration

I'm having here right now,

then I'm gonna catch a flight out.

What about you? How'd your plans go?

- It's actually not until later tonight.

- Listen, I'm not gonna take

up too much of your time.

I know how you are, but

my number's still the same.

V, and we should do this again sometime.

Nice pen.

Cheers, V.

gruesome discovery in Fairfax.

A body of a female found

in a dumpster of a hotel.

Tonight, frightening new details

emerge surrounding the home

of a man who's been arrested.

Witness news reporter Rebecca Steele

joins us live in studio with more.

(wheels clicking) (tense music)

- Hello. - Buenos Dias.

(knocking on door)

- [Housekeeping] Guest services?

(elevator ringing)

(instrument tuning)

- Can you hear me?

- [Nicole] I can, yeah. Oh, where are you?

- I'm in the car.

- Ooh, fancy.

Is it another work thing?

- Yeah, it's somewhere in NorCal.

- [Nicole] Don't envy that.

- In the middle of BFE.

- Oh, well that sounds awful.

- I miss you.

- Are you okay? You seem out of sorts.

- Um, you know what? I actually have to go.

- Oh, okay.

So are you coming home?

- Love you. Okay?

(tense music)

Don't you work here?

- Hey Melody.

- V.

- Did we do a silver or bronze sponsorship

at the Luva event last year?

- [Melody] Let's not sponsor this year.

- At all?

- Well, thanks to Danielle,

we need to lower investment

over a few events this year.

She moved on a while back

and she left a little bit of a mess.

She worked here for years.

Last year she spent too much money,

more money than the

entire sales staff brought in.

Not enough ROI.

- Sales didn't bring any leads at all.

Zero leads?

We can try something different.

Silver sponsorship.

We can provide sales team

the opportunity to network

with CC executives, like golf.

- Keep it simple.

We're just gonna exhibit.

- So we're decreasing my budget this year.

- If you wanna look at it like that.

If sales brings any leads, they look good.

If sales doesn't bring any leads,

it'll be because we didn't look good.

- Right.

- And last year, I mean,

she didn't even have her staff

attend any networking events

or any of those activities, so

it was a waste of resources.

- I'm pretty sure we were

a silver sponsor last year.

- So why did we wait so long

before the final

deadline if it's next week?

- I didn't hear from

the association 'till now.

I reached out to them directly

and apparently all the updates were

going to the previous event lead.

- [Melody] Danielle.

- Yeah.

I'll send over the contract.

- Just B sign my signature. Keep it simple.

Final investment under 10,000.

No sponsorship. No extras.

- Right. Don't renew.

(phone ringing)

No problem.

- Thank you, honey.

This is Melody.

You tell me.

(tense music)

(button clicking)

(doors clicking)

(traffic rushing by) (tense music)

(door buzzing)

(door clicking)

(door clicks) (tense music)

- Can I help you?

(woman screams) (frightening music)

- Oh, hi.

Oh, it's fine. No worries.

Here you go.

(indistinct)

Don't keep moving your heart.

Don't keep moving... Jesus.

Hang on, hang on.

(device beeps)

See?

(indistinct)

Thank you.

(Thomas sighs)

- Hi.

- This darn thing. Ugh.

Oh, this, ugh...

Gosh, darn it. (both laugh)

This, this, this thing. It's...

(Thomas grunts)

- Sometimes if you put

it just right in the light.

There you go.

Just old tech.

- Touche. (both laugh)

- Wanna give it a test?

- Sounds good. Yeah.

All right.

- Do it all the time. (device beeps)

Okay. It looks like I was unregistered.

- Okay. Here.

Select continue or hit dismiss? (laughing)

- Right.

(device beeps)

- Bingo. It works.

(both laugh)

- Yeah, I think we're good to go.

- I think we're good to go too.

- [Vi] Yeah.

- Hey, don't forget these.

- Appreciate it. You have a good day.

- You too. Nice meeting you.

- [Vi] Yeah.

- Morning. - Hi. Good morning.

- [Vi] Here we go.

- Oh, great. - Now I'm registered.

Mm-hmm. (tense music)

Okay.

Here you go, Miss Vi.

And don't forget to grab

a lanyard on your way up.

- Thank you.

- Mm-hm. Have a great event.

(tense music continues)

- Hi, this is Daniel Ray.

Uh-huh.

Well, that's wonderful.

As long as it's here in time for the expo.

- Where's all the stuff?

V?

Okay. I'm gonna reschedule my 1:00

and move the meeting to a conference room.

- Actually, can you have it

delivered to my room instead?

- She forgot her booth?

- Yeah.

(tense music)

(door clicks)

(door clicks)

- Hi.

Just this please.

(device beeping)

(tense music continues)

- That's everything?

(tense music)

- Hi. Can I get some clean sheets?

Unfortunately, there's

quite a few things missing

in my room.

Can I have some soap?

It'd be great if I could

have a good night's sleep.

I don't have soap.

It'd be great if I could have it delivered.

I'm an exhibitor here at

the bench. I don't have soap.

There are quite a few

things missing in my room.

I am exhibitor here. I don't have soap.

Can I also have two pillows?

(tense music continues)

(traffic rushing by)

(door clicks)

(frightening music)

(woman choking)

(frightening music continues)

(phone buzzing)

- Hello?

- Hello.

Just a hello for your good buddy?

Listen, I just got done

explaining the details

of this new deal, Vi.

You should have seen they faces.

It was crazy.

- I'm glad that worked out for you.

I've been trying to be more helpful around.

Looks like I was a lucky

cricket for the last week,

but sounds like you were.

Or how does that work?

- I mean, how should I know?

You the one always talking

about insects and such.

- That's not exactly how I remembered it.

I'm pretty sure you

did most of the talking.

- That's part of my charm.

Since you feeling so chipper,

how about that dinner?

- Sure. We can get

together just like old times.

I'll send you the details?

- Okay.

Just like old times.

- We appreciate you

accommodating our search.

If you see anything out of the ordinary,

please don't hesitate to give us a call.

Have a good day.

(tense music) (phone ringing)

(harsh tone ringing)

- A body was found in a

hotel room while staying

here at the Wagner Hotel.

Just two weeks ago,

Kelly Marks was allegedly

m*rder*d just days

before her body was found

dead in her hotel room while on

vacation, making her the

eighth victim of this ongoing case

since the beginning of this year.

Kelly was just 32 years old

and leaves behind her students

as a beloved professor

at the Bedford School.

The k*ller remains at large.

Over 50 reservations and

growing have been canceled.

Jeopardizing the economy of Victor County,

as the Gideon Hotel is sourced

as being its largest employer

and known to host local

and regional businesses

and trade shows.

While doing the morning rounds

after checkout, a

housekeeper found the victim.

- My wife, we are at a loss for words.

In the many years I have

worked here at the hotel,

going on 33 years now,

we have never experienced or

seen anything like this before.

Never.

It's okay, babe. It's okay.

(wife crying)

- She didn't have eyes.

- It's okay.

- No eyes. (sobbing)

- This is Veronica Stevenson

for Channel 12 News.

(patrons laughing) (energetic music)

- Oh my God.

- Seriously?

They always wait until

the line's crazy (indistinct).

- It's crazy.

It's like, I guess that's

just how it goes, but...

- Yeah. - It sucks.

- I mean, there could be

another one around here.

- Just try to find

another facility for sure.

- Yeah.

(door clicks)

- You okay? - Yeah. Just allergies.

- I'm glad you slid in.

My (indistinct) waiting forever.

- You'd be surprised what

you can do with a bucket.

- So what's the plan?

What, is this like some

super secretive mission?

Am I not like in the

right attire or something?

Good?

- No, just follow me.

Come on.

If we need to wait in line,

we're gonna miss the closing reception.

- We'll be fine. Trust me.

- Good evening.

- What is this?

A yeast convention?

Is this the thing?

- Yes.

- I promise you this

session is gonna run over.

I'm fine.

- Okay. - Trust me.

- Follow me.

- [Victor] You heard the lady.

(indistinct) (footsteps falling)

(patrons chattering)

(dishes clinking)

- [Patron] Thank you.

- (indistinct), miss.

- Thank you.

- Good evening. Welcome.

- Good evening.

- What's up, man?

- (sucks air) Oh, been too long, man.

- Really, like so long.

Like what we talking about?

Since you were at the

bar in Atlanta, right?

- Yeah. This is way better.

Yeah, that bar in Atlanta

was a trap for sure.

- Rob still there?

- Yeah, oh yeah. He's a lifer.

I don't think he's ever gonna leave.

I'm about to get off, but...

Ta-da.

- [Vi] Oh my goodness.

- Kamikazes.

- Yeah. - Your boy used to drink these

like water back in the day.

So I went ahead and figured your order.

Your food's gonna be out in just a moment.

So thank you two lovely

people for joining us today.

I am taking off for

the rest of the evening.

However, your wonderful

stupendous bartender, Clay,

that's gonna come shortly,

will be taking care of

you all the rest of the way.

(indistinct)

Pleasure meeting you.

- Hey, bro. Thank you.

- Of course. My pleasure.

- Victor.

- What, you don't like it?

Somewhere else you gotta be?

- Yeah, it's...

- It's 30 to 7:00.

- Yes.

- Yeah, I, I didn't know

how long your escapades

were gonna be, so I decided

to make time before.

I just really wanted to have a

calm moment with you before.

- Okay, well, cheers.

All right. Got something

- Oh.

There we go.

This is for you. Enjoy.

- Thank you.

- You're very welcome. Oh, you know what?

I did not forget. Did not forget.

- No. - I was told yes.

I was told that each day is a celebration.

(drink fizzing)

- [Vi] Aw, thanks Romero.

- (laughing) You're welcome.

Mi casa, su casa.

Okay, well, I think now

I need to get downstairs.

I gotta polish up some glasses

and get ready for the banquet tomorrow.

So you enjoy that for me, okay?

- I will. Cheers.

- [Romero] Cheers.

- Hm.

(tense music)

- During this m*rder

investigation, police actually came

to this hotel here in Los

Angeles for a welfare check

after a woman was last

seen over the weekend.

When they arrived, police

found her dead inside.

They're trying to figure out why this

happened and who's behind it.

Around 10:30 Wednesday morning, the body

of a woman m*rder*d here

in LA was being taken away

by the medical examiner's office.

Since Tuesday afternoon,

witnesses described what's been happening

in front of the hotel.

One guest says he was shocked to find out

that the police are investigating

a homicide, because pilots

and flight attendants are

normally sent to stay here.

LA police tell us Tuesday,

just before 7:00 PM,

they got a call from a woman

requesting a welfare check

for her coworker who was last seen Friday.

And when the police officers arrived,

they found the woman

dead inside her hotel room.

(tense music)

- [Omar] Seriously?

(dishes clinking)

- It looks like macaroon tasters.

- I'm on it.

You new here?

- Maybe.

- Maybe. How can you be maybe new?

- Let's not make it feel like

the first day of high school.

- I liked high school.

What's your name?

- May Lou.

- Omar.

Ah, delicate hands.

- I manage.

- Of course.

I meant that I hope that

you're not sticking around

for too long.

Makes the hands rough.

(Vi chuckles)

(footsteps approaching)

- Are those to me?

- Mm-hm.

- I'm striking?

- [Omar] Good luck.

Striking out?

- [Venture] Kitchen, do we

have the precons coming?

- It's coming by mailer.

- There's really not much striking.

It's a U-shape, four tables, two chairs.

- Why would they put me on striking?

- Who knows?

Maybe the houseman called up.

speaking) (heart beating)

- Yes I am. How may I help you?

front desk. (tense music)

I haven't been able to get

in contact with my friend.

I'm a little concerned, sir.

- Sir, we don't share

information about guests

unless you're on that same registration.

- I know the rules, sir.

But what I'm telling you

is something feels off.

- Did the front desk

try contact her for you?

- They did to no avail.

Look, what all is going on in these hotels?

Can you please just take

me up there to check?

- Come with me.

- Thank you.
