Summary

The 2013 death of Elisa Lam left Los Angeles shook after her body was discovered in the rooftop water tank of the Cecil Hotel. How she got there is a complete mystery. The theories range from murder, suicide, drugs, an accident, to the more bizarre like a connection to the movie Drive, and a TB test called LAM ELISA.

In part two they interview documentary filmmaker David Farrier (Tickled and Dark Tourist) about his time staying at the Cecil Hotel in the days following Elisa Lam's disappearance, and if he did in fact drink the water. They also interview Jake Anderson, author of the book Gone at Midnight: The Mysterious Death of Elisa Lam. He became interested in the case when he realized that many of the public's questions were going unanswered.
