Part 5, Chapter 53 Summary

Amanda is working the case outside Tom Kennedy’s home. She calls the hospital for an update on Pete, who is in critical condition. She’s confused as to why Pete would have been there since he didn’t tell her where he was going, and she knows that Pete shouldn’t have been there and blames herself partly for pushing him to go.

She goes inside to check on the CSI work before finding Tom Kennedy. She reassures him that she’ll find Jake and reminds him that Neil Spencer was well cared for at first. This is no comfort to Tom, who reminds her that Neil Spencer was then murdered. She puts forward her theory on why Jake was chosen: that he was living in this house and was therefore a target of Francis’s obsession. Amanda then asks Tom why Pete was at the house. When Tom tells her that he was babysitting Jake, she sees the resemblance between them and realizes they must be related.

She lets it go for the time being. When Karen offers to let Tom stay with her, Amanda pushes him toward that option, knowing that he needs support. She promises Tom that she’ll be in touch with him the moment she has more information.
