| 0:22.8 | Crime with Court, with Sarah having lived through the pain of her sister going missing, |
| 0:27.2 | and Courtney having seen firsthand how crime can impact a family. The two come together to bring |

| 1:41.6 | When she struggled in the big city, she moved out to a small town. |
| 1:45.1 | Then, just when she thought she'd found her place in the world, she vanished from it entirely. |
| 1:49.8 | But is Crystal really gone, or did she find a new life? |
| 1:53.4 | Maybe somewhere off the grid. |
