He wants to know if she ever remembers her sister mentioning her neighbor helping her with her bedroom window. But Goebel's reply is firm. Her sister never mentioned anything like this. And even more, her bedroom window never got stuck. In fact, it was exactly the opposite. That window was so loose that it had to be held in place with small pieces of wood.
Trainer thanks Goble for the info and hangs up. Taking a deep breath, he leans back in his chair to clear his head. He finds this discrepancy troubling. If Reese is lying, he certainly doesn't seem like it. But a lot of the evidence, psychic and otherwise, seems to be pointing towards Reese being their man. And yet, it can't be him. He has an alibi for the time of the murder.

The trainer's phone rings. Again, it's Captain Heater. He's just received word from the medical examiner. They've only just realized that they've made a mistake. It turns out that when they were poring over crime scene evidence again, they determined that the time of death was not midnight as first thought. It actually happened much closer to the wee hours of the morning, 2, maybe 3 a.m.

This is the same time visualized by Weber while inside Cornish's apartment. It's also a part of the evening that John Rhys does not have an alibi for. Traynor can hardly believe it. This, coupled with Rhys' fingerprint, changes everything. But a fingerprint and psychic visions are not a smoking gun. And a smoking gun is what Traynor needs, or rather, a bloody hammer.

And so, Traynor goes back to the one person who helped them get this far. He calls Nancy Weber and asks her to come to his office. The police need more help than only she can provide. The following day, Weber and Traynor are seated across a table from each other in the conference room.

Trainer doesn't go into detail about Reese and the window, but he does reveal to Webber that the time of death has now been altered to match her version. Webber nods ever so slightly. Trainer can tell by the subtle smile on her face that she knows he's starting to come around to her strange methods. Trainer thanks Webber for her assistance thus far and asks if she can do one more thing for them.

They need help locating the murder weapon. Weber again nods her head. She asks Traynor not to tell her anything else and closes her eyes. Traynor watches intently. He can see her eyes moving behind her eyelids, almost like she's dreaming. They sit in complete silence for a while, so long, in fact, that Traynor grows uncomfortable, as though he's watching something very private take place.

Finally, Weber's eyes pop open. She asks for a piece of paper and something to write with. And immediately, Traynor slides the items across the table to her. Weber picks up the pencil and, without another word, begins to draw. Traynor holds his breath as she sketches out what appears to be a long road. Then she draws a few trees at the end of the road.

And then finally, just beyond the rough sketch of them, she draws a circle. At this point, she looks up at Traynor. She points to the circle on the piece of paper and says that this is some kind of pond or another body of water. It lies just beyond some trees at the end of a road. She can't say exactly where this is, but if Traynor can find the location she's drawn, he'll find the murder weapon.

The hammer used to kill Elizabeth Cornish is at the bottom of that water. Traynor considers what Weber has just told him while looking over her crude drawing. It's not very specific. This pond, these trees, this road could literally be anywhere. Maybe not even in this county, let alone this state. It feels awfully flimsy, but it's all they have.

Reese has a semi-believable explanation for the fingerprint and Traynor knows that if they want to convict him, they're going to need him to crack. He had been so sure that all of this psychic stuff was all a total crock when he first met Weber outside the Blair House apartments. And now, he's not so sure anymore. He has to admit that so far, Weber has been spot on.
