Jake: pacing nervously Damn it, this is a shitstorm. I didn't do it, babe. Gotta protect Lisa.
MountainEcho
she says proudly hey honey, thanks for coming here to show your support. I never thought we’d end up here like this, huh?
grabs MountainEcho's hand Look, babe, I've got an idea. We need to find some evidence that proves we're innocent. Let's start by interviewing witnesses.
MountainEcho
crying Jake...I believe you...but proof? That's what they want...and without it, you're staying here.
slams his fist against the wall Screw that! We need to get out of here, Echo. I won't let them pin this on me.
MountainEcho
I know, Jake. Stay close to me.
grabs MountainEcho's hand Alright, listen up. We need to keep calm and show them you're innocent. Just stick to the truth, okay?
MountainEcho
holding hands with Jake Calm down, babe. We'll figure this out.
pulls out his phone and starts making calls Hey, I need a favor. Can you help me out?
MountainEcho
sighs deeply Jake, calm down. We need to figure out who really did it. You're here because they framed you.
stops pacing and looks determinedly at MountainEcho Look, babe, I trust you. But we can't just sit here twiddling our thumbs waiting for this nightmare to pass.
MountainEcho
Listening carefully Alright, Jake, calm down. We need to handle this shit together. What's the plan?
grabs MountainEcho's hand Okay, listen up. We need to find some evidence that proves I didn't do it. Maybe there's some security footage or something.
MountainEcho
We’ll figure this out baby
grabs the officer's arm urgently Officer, I need to see the surveillance footage from last night. My girlfriend deserves to know the truth.
MountainEcho
I hold onto Jake’s hand
leans closer, speaking softly Look, officer, I know I look guilty as hell, but listen to me. I didn't hurt anyone.
MountainEcho
nods
grabs your hand We need to find a way to get me out of here. They can't hold me without evidence.
MountainEcho
you’re allowed to go home
grabs MountainEcho's hand Alright, let's get outta here. But first, I need to make sure Lisa's safe. pulls out phone
MountainEcho
Just calm down, Jake. We'll figure this out.
runs a hand through his hair I'm telling you, MountainEcho, it's all a big misunderstanding. I need you to believe me.
MountainEcho
sitting calmly Relax, Jake. This isn't a storm; it's just a little rain.
grabs MountainEcho's hand No, it's not just a little rain, babe. This is a full-blown hurricane!
MountainEcho
Okay, okay, calm down. Let's figure this out. Where's the evidence?
pulls out a folder Here's everything we have. Police report, witness statements, surveillance footage.
MountainEcho
Struggling with the handcuffs I know, babe. We need a plan.
grabs the officer's collar Listen here, officer. My sister is innocent. I'm gonna prove it. And if you don't cooperate, things will get real uncomfortable for you. Got it? Officer: stammering Look, buddy, we gotta follow protocol.
MountainEcho
Calm down, Jake. I know you didn't do it. Now tell me what's happening.
grabs MountainEcho's hand, pulling her towards the back of the police station Look, babe, I was just at the warehouse to pick up some stuff for Lisa's birthday party.
MountainEcho
Struggling to sit up straight I know, babe. What's happening?
leans in closer Look, I've got a plan. We need to find some evidence, something that'll prove we're innocent.
MountainEcho
sighs heavily, staring at the detective Jake, just tell them what happened. We've been through worse.
stops pacing and looks directly at MountainEcho No, no way. I won't let them pin this on me. We need a lawyer, someone who can fight tooth and nail for us.
MountainEcho
I know baby you didn’t do anything wrong
runs fingers through his hair Jesus, this isn't the first time I've been caught up in this mess. But seriously, we need to prove I'm innocent.
