THE MISSING IS BACK - PART 3

[Blondeshavemorefun]

SQUEAL, CANT WAIT FOR TONIGHTS EPISODE :)

thought better start a new thread as part 2 is almost full

thread 1 here and thread 2 here

so much to question, but the death the sexy policeman by driller killer had us all last week, assume has to be dead 'clutches straws'

You can fake appendicitis- well, not the actual inflamed appendix but, if you complain of pain & tenderness in the right lower abdomen enough, someone will usually whip your appendix out.

So it's possible that Sophie was faking, with or without Drillbert's collusion, as part of a bigger plan.

I'm actually in bed. DH thinks I'm absolutely bonkers - though he lived Liverpool's screenshot of the picture on the wall.

Thank God for MN - we have to have somewhere to discuss it

I wonder if the Iraq girl is a red herring? We are obviously being encouraged to imagine gang rape or murder, but maybe it's nothing like that at all. It could have been an accidental killing - they shot her, mistaking her for an enemy soldier or similar.

True hesterton but she has been deprived of sunlight for 7 years (or however long it was - the multiple timelines confuse me).

Maybe they accidentally killed the Iraqi girl but covered it up? So that left them susceptible to blackmail or to being pressured into concealing a (separate) paedophile ring involved in the abduction.

The child could be older and just small for her age, perhaps not fed very well, so malnourished? We do know that Sophie had a baby, who she said died. Could Alice have also had a baby? Perhaps Lena wasn't as compliant as Sophie and Alice. I think Alice did die and her body was put in the shed. But, Alice could be the mother of Lucy.

Do we know the date of when the photo was taken at the Fairground?

It's gotta depend on the degree of incineration though, hasn't it? Most people found in house fires haven't actually been burned. I think they tell by signs like smoke inhalation in the lungs and l don't think there's much lung left to test if you are as burnt as 'Alice's' body.

Did anyone catch when he cut her hair and she said she looked like a boy - drilla said she looked beautiful, then said she looked younger

Creepy enough but the expression on Sophie's face when he said that - it's almost like she knows he will get tired of her soon...

I found that bit (and many others!) really disturbing

Maybe Sophie meant like the transgender Ilise (?) from last week, the one who was with Henry Reed?

Hang on a minute, if he was in Dead Policeman's house (was also confused as to why Baptiste was at Drilla's house!!) What was he cleaning off the floor?

Also:

Lucy has drawn a picture of a dead girl in a town with a building that has turrets and is in a mountainous region.

What dead girl?

Honesty I think I've managed to get it together, then I watch the episide , get confused again, think about it and think I might have an idea, read thread and rrsluse I know nothing.

Yes, Sophie was magnificently creepy but I hope it doesn't turn out that she's some kind of evil mastermind. I've also got a horrible feeling the truth will emerge after Baptiste dies
