Oh, gee whiz.

I guess.

But then she wouldn't sign anything.

So the police were like, what's going on here?

Sounds weird.

They were kind of at a dead end.

And now they're frustrated by Elizabeth's stonewalling.

So they went back to her friend Emma Short, the only other person who seemed to have any insight into what the fuck was going on here.

Come on, Emma.

Because remember, Emma would go to the Tropical Cafe who was owned by the people that Elizabeth said were blackmailing her.

So at first, Emma refused to speak to the detectives and suggested that Elizabeth had actually told her not to talk to the police about anything.

Oh.

But in her protests, Emma inadvertently mentioned something that caught Detective Henderson's attention.

The annulment.

Oh, I was waiting for that to be discovered.

Yeah.

Until that point, investigators actually hadn't heard anything about an annulment.

And actually, if Emma hadn't brought it up on accident, there was a good chance it actually would have gone unnoticed for probably forever, to be honest.

Probably.

But now that it was out, there was no going back and Emma knew it.
