The story so far
Everything you need before watchingLinda describes a painting-party oddball who sat all night in a suit; Darlene told her to stay away, and weeks later Darlene was dead. The name was short, like Stan—not Rick. He keeps pushing Rick Marshall; she lands on Leigh. The file room opens at eight, and he only wants one file for one second.
