Thirteen
Overview
Pip and Ravi use a floorplan and videos to fix Jamie’s movements: watching someone in the living room at 9:38, leaving the house at 9:56, then pacing on a long phone call until about 10:32. A crowd photo reveals Max Hastings at the memorial, rattling Ravi before Pip’s parents confront her about the missing-person posters.
Summary
Pip and Ravi review Chris’s saved Snapchat story and discuss the corridor direction in a clip where Jamie appears. Lacking house access, they search property sites for Stephen’s floorplan. Pip calls Chris, who recovers the original video from Recently Deleted and confirms the beer pong clip at 9:56 p.m.
Using the floorplan, Pip traces the corridor and determines Jamie was heading toward the front door, meaning he was leaving at 9:56 and looking at his phone, likely starting the long call that George later described. Pip annotates the plan with Jamie pacing outside until roughly 10:32.
They compare another image of Jamie at 9:38 by a bay window and deduce he was in the living room, looking toward the fireplace, likely watching the same person he followed from the memorial. Pip shifts focus to find photos taken near that fireplace around 9:38 to identify “someone.”
Ravi then finds a crowd photograph from the memorial showing Max Hastings present, upsetting Ravi given the ongoing trial and Max’s betrayal of Sal. Pip comforts Ravi, who resolves to continue attending court despite the strain, hoping Max will soon face consequences.
When Pip’s family returns home, her mum confronts her about the missing Jamie posters. Ravi slips out, leaving Pip to face her parents as the confrontation begins.
