The Lost Man

Content Warning: This section of the guide includes discussion of sexual assault and abortion.

Nathan calls the contractor and asks when he visited his house, realizing he might have seen Cam’s car along the way. He tells Xander that he plans to return to the site where Cam’s car was found, but his son is still angry because Nathan became distracted when they were talking in the garage, and he refuses to go with him. At the site, Nathan pounds stakes with flags into the ground. When he gets back in his car, he remembers adjusting Cam’s seat, which he shouldn’t have had to do, as they are the same size.

Nathan drives the route that the contractor would have taken, and the flags are clearly visible. If Cam’s car had been there that morning, he would’ve seen it. If Nathan’s suspicions are correct, someone was driving Cam’s car while Cam was stranded at the stockman’s grave. As he thinks, he absentmindedly drives toward the grave but stops when he sees another car approaching the landmark.
