Who would want to kill him?

Much like an actual Ferris wheel, the blame game in this family went round and round.

Here's the episode.

Scott Ferris was worried.

No one had seen his father, Gary, in two days.

It was July 5th, 2018, a hot and humid Thursday in Cherokee County, Georgia, just outside Atlanta.

Scott was talking to Detective Daniel Hayes on the Farris' beautifully manicured family farm.

Scott was in his mid-30s, ex-military, and a big guy like his dad, six feet, six inches tall.

He managed the farm for his parents.

On that Thursday, he was heading out to get a haircut when he saw his sister sitting on the front porch of the main house with his mother, Melody.

Apparently, no one in the family had.

Scott noticed that Gary's Mercedes was still parked at the farm.

He then ticked through the other clues that might indicate Gary was somewhere on the property, beginning with his dad's wallet.

When Gary was home, he'd leave that on his dresser in the master bedroom.

But it wasn't there.

He thought about what else Gary would have taken if he left on a trip or was staying safely somewhere else.

Gary used a CPAP machine every night for his sleep apnea.

And Scott knew his father wouldn't spend the night anywhere without it.

But with Gary's car and CPAP machine all on the property, he had to be nearby.

At this point, Scott's brother Chris had joined the search.
