This episode inched a lot closer to finding out what happened to the kids. Hays found Will's dead body last week but Julia was nowhere to be seen. Hays, along with his partner Roland West go out into the woods for a search party and end up finding a clearing where the kids used to play. Hays also finds blood nearby. Now the future Hays has already told us that Julia is alive since her prints were found during a robbery investigation. As for Will, while browsing through an old photo album, Hays finds a photo of the boy in the exact same position as his body was lying when it was found under the rocks. The duo finds out from the parents that it was taken during the child's first communion, giving the crime a more religious tone. A good kind of deja vu to the first season, for sure.
