Content Warning: This section of the guide refers to rape, assault, stalking, coerced abortion, and infanticide.

A woman wakes in the back seat of a car. She vaguely recalls being beaten and injured. Now, she can’t move her arms and can hear the two people in the front seat talking to one another. She hears them talking about disposing of her body. She loses consciousness.

It is Halloween night around midnight. Two people drive to an abandoned dockyard on the north shore of Vancouver where they intend to have sex. They are surprised to see two cars driving up to the dock and watch the drivers get out. They drag something rolled in a large carpet to the ocean inlet and drop it into the water. They roll one of the vehicles, a yellow Subaru Crosstrek, off the edge of the dock and then drive off in the other car. The couple watching assumes they have witnessed the disposal of a body. They won’t report the incident to the police for fear of having their affair discovered by their families: They are both high-profile individuals.
