‘Trust’ – Laura Bellini and Sarah Bellini Interview on FX’s New Getty Kidnapping Series

Trust - Sarah Bellini and Laura Bellini
Sarah Bellini and Laura Bellini star in FX’s ‘Trust.’

FX is delving into the John Paul Getty III kidnapping case in the new series, Trust. Set to premiere on Sunday, March 25, 2018 at 10pm ET/PT, Trust is based on a true story and chronicles the events leading up to and transpiring over the course of the kidnapping and ransom of the grandson of billionaire John Paul Getty.

The star-studded Trust cast includes Donald Sutherland as J. Paul Getty Sr, Hilary Swank as Gail Getty, Harris Dickinson as John Paul Getty III, and Brendan Fraser as James Fletcher Chace. Laura Bellini and Sarah Bellini co-star as Martine Zacher and Jutta Winklemann, two interesting women who played important roles in John Paul Getty III’s life.


In support of the series’ upcoming premiere, sisters Sarah Bellini and Laura Bellini teamed up for a phone interview to discuss their characters and the world that’s explored in Trust. Sarah and Laura Bellini also talked about working with director/executive producer Danny Boyle and series creator/writer Simon Beaufoy.

Laura Bellini and Sarah Bellini Trust Exclusive Interview:

How would you describe the series?

Sarah Bellini: “I would say Trust is the story of the kidnapping of John Paul Getty III, the grandson of John Paul Getty. It’s set in 1973 in Rome and it’s a tragic saga, a family history, but definitely a story that shows what terrifying and corrosive power money has.”

What did you know about the Getty kidnapping before you signed on to Trust?

Laura Bellini: “Initially, actually, I didn’t know much. Of course I’ve heard the Getty name and since we both live in LA now, we’ve heard about Getty Images, the Getty Museum, and the Getty Villa. But we hadn’t really heard anything about the kidnapping since it happened in the ‘70s and we weren’t born then. But, when we got the audition and started researching, we talked to our parents. Our dad is from Italy and remembers the time very vividly and the whole incident, so that was very helpful.”

Your characters are based on real women. Did you do a lot of research into their lives?

Sarah Bellini: “Yes, we did. I mean, we were lucky because we actually spent an entire month in Germany before we started shooting in Rome. So, we read their biographies and we talked to our grandparents and to a lot of elder people who actually experienced the counter-culture, the ’68 revolution in Germany. We watched a lot of documentaries about that time. We definitely studied a lot about Jutta Winkelmann and Martine Zacher lives and their biographies. Unfortunately, only one of them is still alive. My character, she passed away last February so only Laura’s character is still alive.”

It’s interesting to delve back into the ‘70s and slip into the makeup and clothing of that time period. What did you find was the most fascinating thing to explore about that era?

Laura Bellini: “It was actually fascinating how helpful costume and makeup and the entire look could be for an actor. We always knew that but since this was a period piece, it was really great to get the sense of free love, wild adventure, and that women empowerment that women felt during that time. That rebellion and just revolutionary time – that was definitely amazing to see how costumes could help you to get that sense of that time period. So, I think for me that was the most fascinating or exciting was to feel that women empowerment and that rebellion.”

How difficult was it to try and connect with the 1970s and feel at home in that time period?

Sarah Bellini: “I think it was very difficult and challenging, not only because it’s a period piece but also because everything is based on true events so our characters were real people. I thought that was very scary at first and challenging. I had a lot of respect playing someone who is actually real and things that had actually happened. But, I feel like it’s also very exciting to go back in time and to live at a different time again.”

Laura Bellini: “It was definitely helpful to listen to a lot of the music of the ‘70s. We listened to a lot of that music and we looked into the songwriting since music had a big influence on people’s lives and values during that time. I think that helped, for sure. And, we watched a lot of films and documentaries that influenced Europe back then but that were also popular in Germany from Germany. To get that sense of that time was definitely very helpful to watch a lot of documentaries and movies.”

Why do think it is that people are still fascinated with the John Paul Getty III kidnapping?

Laura Bellini: “I think that in general it talks about the universal theme of greed and power and the corrosive power of money, and how money can change people and their values. I feel like especially nowadays we live in a very materialistic world where social media has a very big importance, and I think people shouldn’t forget what money can do and how money can change people. I think that this story – the Getty story – is a relevant example and reminder for all that and that money can’t buy happiness and true love.”

Sarah Bellini: “And I think that everybody kind of knows about the Gettys. Like me, for example, I knew about them but not the whole story behind them. Their story is so fascinating. They were the most wealthy – and still are one of the most wealthy – families in the world. This kidnapping was probably the most famous kidnapping of all time, so I think it’s just interesting to hear the story, in general.”

You share a lot of scenes with Harrison Dickinson as John Paul Getty III. Can you talk about working with him?

Laura Bellini: “It was definitely so much fun and amazing. He’s such a kindhearted and genuine person. He’s so talented. Rehearsing with him before we started to shoot everything was so helpful.”

Sarah Bellini: “We had a lot of fun.”

I’ve watched the first three episodes and some of your scenes look pretty difficult, physically and emotionally. Were there a lot of tough days on the set?

Sarah Bellini: “Yeah, definitely, especially the first week. I remember the first weeks of shooting were really challenging just because there were a lot of emotional scenes and just tough scenes, long days. The stakes were high. But since we just love acting – it’s really our passion – we just always enjoyed it. It was such an amazing experience. We learned so much from watching our co-actors since there were so many talented actors involved. It was hard, but it was still fun.”

Trust comes from the 127 Hours and Slumdog Millionaire team of writer Simon Beaufoy and director Danny Boyle. Can you talk about working with them on Trust?

Sarah Bellini: “Simon is such a wonderful writer. I remember when I was first reading the scripts, I was blown away. I was so electrified because his scripts are so surprising and funny and nuanced. I feel like he makes it so easy for us as actors because his words are so real and truthful. I feel like that authenticity makes it universally understood. You, as the audience, also feel involved right from the start. He’s just brilliant.”

Laura Bellini: “Of course working with Danny was amazing, as well. He made me feel really comfortable on set. Just watching him…I mean he has so much energy and he brings so much motivation and positive energy to the set. I’ve really never seen that in a director. It just creates such a wonderful working atmosphere for everyone. Everybody is really motivated to give their best and to create such wonderful work.”

The Trust Plot: Told over multiple seasons and spanning the twentieth century, the series begins in 1973 with the kidnapping of John Paul Getty III (Dickinson), an heir to the Getty oil fortune, by the Italian mafia in Rome. His captors banked on a multi-million-dollar ransom. After all, what rich family wouldn’t pay for the return of a loved one?

Paul’s grandfather, J. Paul Getty Sr. (Sutherland), an enigmatic oil tycoon and possibly the richest man in the world, is marooned in a Tudor mansion in the English countryside surrounded by a harem of mistresses and a pet lion. He’s busy. Paul’s father, J. Paul Getty Jr. (Michael Esper), is lost in a daze in London and refuses to answer the phone. Only Paul’s mother, Gail Getty (Swank), is left to negotiate with the increasingly desperate kidnappers. Unfortunately, she’s broke. Trust charts the teenage grandson’s nightmare ordeal at the hands of kidnappers who cannot understand why nobody seems to want their captive back.

‘Tag’ Movie Trailer Debuts Starring Jon Hamm, Ed Helms, and Jeremy Renner

Comedy film gods, please let the full Tag movie live up to the trailer. We need a good laugh and comedies that actually deliver are few and far between. This one feels like it has (original) Hangover potential, and not just because it features Ed Helms in a starring role.

The trailer informs viewers multiple times that it’s based on true events, and that’s not a made-up movie gimmick. It’s actually based on “It Takes Planning, Caution to Avoid Being It,” an article published in the Wall Street Journal and written by Russell Adams. The January 2013 article tells the story of ten friends who have played the game of tag for more than 20 years, dedicating the month of February each year to attempting to tag each other with the last person tagged remaining “It” until the game begins again the following year.

The film adaptation of the article stars Ed Helms, Jake Johnson, Annabelle Wallis, Rashida Jones, Isla Fisher, Leslie Bibb, Hannibal Buress, Jon Hamm, and Jeremy Renner. Jeff Tomsic directed from a script by Rob McKittrick and Mark Steilen. Steilen and Todd Garner produced, and Hans Ritter, Richard Brener, Walter Hamada, and Dave Neustadtern executive produced.

New Line Cinema is targeting a June 15, 2018 theatrical release date.

The Tag Plot: One month every year, five highly competitive friends hit the ground running in a no-holds-barred game of tag they’ve been playing since the first grade—risking their necks, their jobs and their relationships to take each other down with the battle cry “You’re It!” This year, the game coincides with the wedding of their only undefeated player, which should finally make him an easy target. But he knows they’re coming…and he’s ready. Based on a true story, Tag shows how far some guys will go to be the last man standing.

Sicario: Day of the Soldado opens in theaters on June 29, 2018.

The Sicario 2 Plot: In Sicario: Day of the Soldado, the series begins a new chapter. In the drug war, there are no rules – and as the cartels have begun trafficking terrorists across the US border, federal agent Matt Graver (Josh Brolin) calls on the mysterious Alejandro (Benicio Del Toro), whose family was murdered by a cartel kingpin, to escalate the war in nefarious ways. Alejandro kidnaps the kingpin’s daughter to inflame the conflict – but when the girl is seen as collateral damage, her fate will come between the two men as they question everything they are fighting for.

The Original Sicario Plot: In Mexico, Sicario means hitman. In the lawless border area stretching between the U.S. and Mexico, an idealistic FBI agent (Emily Blunt) is enlisted by an elite government task force official (Brolin) to aid in the escalating war against drugs. Led by an enigmatic consultant with a questionable past (Del Toro), the team sets out on a clandestine journey forcing Kate to question everything that she believes in order to survive.

‘Lucifer’ Season 3 Episode 18 Recap: The Last Heartbreak

Lucifer Season 3 Episode 18 Recap
Tom Welling and Tom Ellis in ‘Lucifer’ season 3 episode 18 (Photo by Ray Mickshaw / FOX)

Fox’s Lucifer season three episode 18 begins with a flashback to Los Angeles in 1958. Marcus Pierce (Tom Welling), a homicide detective even way back then, thumbs through murder photos in a bar. He’s on the case of the Broken Hearts Killer, a nickname which he detests. Unfortunately, the name sticks.

Flash-forward to 2018 and Pierce reads about the Broken Hearts Killer while at his desk. Chloe (Lauren German) arrives to discuss the concert they just took in and the two are all smiles and flirty.

Lucifer and Ella (Aimee Garcia) debate whether there’s chemistry between Chloe and Pierce as they spy on them from outside Pierce’s office. Ella knows Lucifer’s worried that Pierce will intrude on his time with Chloe and assures him what he and Chloe have is on a different level.

Pierce asks Chloe out to dinner and she gets tongue-tied and can’t reply. Dan (Kevin Alejandro) interrupts but then tries to excuse himself when he figures out something’s going on. Chloe says it’s nothing, and Dan tells her about a new double murder case.

Amenadiel (DB Woodside) goes off on a rant, wondering what it is his father wants of him. The poor waitress at the coffee shop doesn’t understand what’s going on and decides on her own what he needs to drink. He then spots Charlotte (Tricia Helfer) walking by and follows her out of the shop. Amenadiel confuses her by calling her mom and talking about how Lucifer used the flaming sword to send her to a different universe. Charlotte tries to get him to explain the flaming sword comment, but Amenadiel flees the conversation.

As they arrive at the crime scene, Lucifer brags he hasn’t asked Chloe about her date with Pierce. Lucifer tells her Ella thinks they had sex but Dr. Linda thinks they just went to a concert, and Chloe’s shocked at how many people he talked to about her social life. Pierce arrives at the scene and interrupts their conversation, declaring this murder is a “different kind of case.”

Lucifer doesn’t want Pierce involved and he’s okay with that. He stands to the side as Ella explains the victims had their chests crushed. The killer was sending a message they didn’t like this particular relationship. Pierce asks from the sidelines which one was married. He recalls in the ‘50s the Broken Hearts Killer made his cheating victims swallow their wedding rings. The Broken Hearts Killer just died in prison and Pierce thinks this is a copycat.

Chloe figures out the male victim, Robbie, was married but Rachel was single.

Dan brings Trixie home and there are strangers passed out all over Chloe’s apartment. Maze (Lesley-Ann Brandt) finally wakes up and Dan yells at her for letting a drunk rocker sleep in Trixie’s bed. Dan wonders if she’s going through something and she replies, “Other than the band…no.”

Maze reminds Dan they killed a guy together, so he doesn’t need to talk to Chloe about this situation.

Pierce intends to join Chloe and Lucifer in the interrogation room. Lucifer reminds him he and the detective are a team and warns Pierce there’s only room for one immortal in that relationship. However, Pierce attends anyway since he’s interested in both the killings…and Chloe.

Emma, the dead man’s wife, has a history of attacking her husband. She learned Robbie was cheating on her and lost her mind. However, she claims she didn’t kill him and is clearly upset about the murder photos. She says the divorce was amicable and she didn’t want to harm Rachel. Lucifer can’t believe anyone would accept an interloper.

After the interrogation, Pierce is sure Emma was telling the truth because she didn’t recognize the name of the Broken Hearts Killer. Just then, news comes about another copycat murder. Lucifer seethes with anger that Pierce is now part of his team. “And I normally love threesomes,” he quips through gritted teeth.

The copycat killer’s new victims (Mary and Dennis) were found dead in a motel room bed. The killer crushed their chests, and it turns out Mary was also married. Ella describes the killer as a total pro, and Lucifer wonders what Pierce has to say about how to find the killer. Pierce explains the LAPD just lucked onto the Broken Hearts Killer.

In a flashback, Pierce is at the bar looking at a photo that resembles the most recent crime scene in 2018. The waitress, Kay (Fiona Gubelmann), joins him at his table and says she understands why he chooses to work in the bar, guessing he doesn’t want to be alone but doesn’t feel like he deserves any company. Pierce reveals he’s working on the Broken Hearts Killer case. Kay looks at a photo and says it’s crazy how people go to any lengths to make things perfect. Maybe it’s the same with the Broken Hearts Killer.

Back to current events and Pierce shows Chloe and Lucifer footage from the motel from days before the murder. The video reveals Neil Berger was snapping photos outside the motel days prior, and the APB shows he’s in front of the original killer’s house right now.

Amenadiel visits Dr. Linda (Rachael Harris) to let her know Charlotte Richards is back. He assures her she has nothing to worry about, but quickly realizes Dr. Linda already knows this. She confesses she’s treating Charlotte and she didn’t realize Amenadiel didn’t know Charlotte was alive. Amenadiel tells Dr. Linda that Charlotte deserves to know the truth. Linda doesn’t agree because she’s fragile and it would screw her up.

Neil argues with the current owner of the Broken Hearts Killer’s house as he snaps photos. Chloe, Lucifer, and Pierce arrive and it turns out Neil is the head of the Broken Hearts Tour and is a BHK expert.

Neil takes them on the tour using Segways. With rain ponchos and helmets on, they cruise through past Broken Heart Killer crime scenes. Lucifer is impatient, but Pierce thinks Neil will incriminate himself.

Neil shares his belief that it was only a matter of time until someone picked up where the original Broken Hearts Killer left off. He then provides details on the new murders that no one outside of the killer and the cops should know. Chloe places Neil under arrest.

Pierce spots the old bar he used to hang out in and heads to his old table. He’s shocked to see the same waitress still works there and that she hasn’t aged. It turns out the waitress, Maddie, is Kay’s granddaughter and he lets her know he knew her grandmother back in the day. They shake hands and he tells her he used to come in there when he was working on cases. Her grandfather is Pierce’s old partner – the cop who solved the Broken Hearts Killer case. She lets Pierce in on the secret that her grandfather never figured out how BHK chose his victims. Maddie says her grandfather kept working on it up until his death six years ago.

Back at the station, Lucifer’s happy the case is closed and wants to find a new case that’s just for him and Chloe. Chloe impatiently tells her partner it’s not closed; they still have to interview Neil.

Neil can’t believe they think he’s the killer, and he’s thrilled he’s part of the investigation. It turns out an officer has been providing him with crime scene photos and that’s how he knew things he shouldn’t have known.

Dan’s at Maze’s place and he’s pissed. Trixie gave her teacher pot brownies, and Maze thinks that’s funny. He reminds her the one red line she can’t cross has to do with Trixie’s welfare, demanding she stop pulling these crazy stunts. Maze replies in anger, declaring she’s moving out. She knows they don’t want her around. She adds, “I’m sick of your goodie two shoes ex-wife and that stupid little brat of yours anyway.” Trixie has been standing at the door and runs away, crying. Dan chases after her.

Chloe calls Pierce at the bar to inform him Neil isn’t the killer. Pierce asks Maddie for her grandfather’s files and she agrees to let him take a look.

Lucifer’s frustrated Pierce has a lead and Chloe asks what his problem is. Lucifer admits he doesn’t like having Pierce as a third-wheel and Chloe, pissed off, snaps at Lucifer and tells him she’ll go see Pierce without him, adding there’s no time to make this case all about him.

Another flashback reveals Pierce and Kay toasting to the capture of the Broken Hearts Killer. She asks if they can go on a real date now, but he turns her down. He informs her he’s leaving the state because it’s time to move on. She begins crying and admits she thought she had broken through to him. She tells him he needs to open up or no one will ever love him. After she leaves, he whispers, “I know.”

Chloe goes through the old paperwork with Pierce and it turns out a call-in radio show was the one connection between all the old victims. If the copycat is following BHK’s MO, then he’s listening to a radio show, too.

Ella knows just which one: Chance’s Chocolates. She’s obsessed with the show and it’s all about cheating spouses. She explains how the show works and Chloe realizes the new murder victims are connected to the show. But, the only way the killer would know the addresses of the victims would be if he or she works at the radio station.

Lucifer Season 3 Episode 18 Recap

Pierce volunteers he and Chloe to act like a couple to lure the killer. Lucifer’s not happy and tries to excuse himself, but Ella tells him he needs to act like the jilted lover.

At the radio station, the talk show host gets on Lucifer’s nerves. As they’re talking, an intern arrives with the show’s host’s lunch. The host treats the intern like crap and throws the sandwich.

Lucifer explains his work partner is cheating on him with their boss.

The host calls Chloe and promises her a free box of chocolates to be delivered to her special someone. She says the timing’s great because they’re having a date night tonight. She describes Marcus as handsome and brave, and says they care about the same things including helping other people. She calls him a good person, and the host promises to deliver the candy that evening to Marcus.

That night, Chloe heads to Marcus’ place to wait for the killer. It turns out Marcus has a huge rock collection and explains he’s taken a rock from every place he’s visited. He then shows off his amazing view.

Meanwhile, Dan and Lucifer man the surveillance van waiting for the candy delivery. Lucifer asks Dan how he moved on from Chloe and Dan admits he was jealous of Lucifer initially. But, he realized Lucifer had nothing to do with why his relationship with Chloe ended. After coming to that realization, he was able to move on.

Pierce serves Chloe her favorite meal and she thinks maybe they shouldn’t do this since they work together. He reminds her she asked him out first. Although Chloe really likes him, she doesn’t think he’ll be able to let her in which is what she needs.

Outside, Dan and Lucifer stop the suspected killer who’s the intern from the station. Dan handcuffs him but he claims he’s only there to film the angry ex busting in on their spouse. He wants to be a producer, but for now he posts the videos unedited on his website. Dan figures out the killer could get the addresses from the videos and could be anyone.

While Dan and Lucifer are out front, the killer is inserting gas into a window in Pierce’s house.

Chloe and Pierce enjoy their meal, unaware of the gas. Chloe apologizes for saying what she thinks before dinner. Marcus claims he doesn’t want the walls up anymore and wants to let her in. She begins getting sick and passes out, and then Marcus follows, hitting the floor.

The killer enters the house with a sledgehammer and places Chloe on the floor next to Pierce. He picks up the hammer and is about to swing when Lucifer stops him. It turns out the killer is the person who bought the Broken Hearts Killer’s house. He claims he hurt Chloe and Pierce for Lucifer. He then reveals he found Hoffman’s journals in the house’s attic and he understands how hard it is to lose someone. He and the BHK wanted to show the world you just can’t leave people.

Lucifer realizes he can’t decide who Chloe gets to be with. Lucifer knocks out the killer and helps Chloe while Dan checks on Pierce.

Meanwhile, Amenadiel’s back at the coffee shop, hiding his face from Charlotte as she walks by. She confronts Amenadiel and tells him she knows he’s following her. She wants to know about the crazy stuff he said earlier, explaining that it’s so hard not knowing what she did. Amenadiel tells her she was his mom and asks her to sit down. “There is so much to explain,” he says, gently.

Chloe arrives home to find Olga watching Trixie since Maze moved out. Seconds after Olga leaves, Lucifer knocks and he’s there to explain why he’s been acting weird. Chloe understands that he’s insecure and Lucifer admits he was insecure about Pierce moving in on their partnership but now he realizes there’s enough room in her life for all sorts of relationships. She offers coffee but he’s off to a bachelorette party at Lux.

After he leaves, she calls Pierce for a date.

Maddie takes a seat at the table with Pierce, and he tells her he’s going to go for it. He then confesses Chloe is the key to finally getting what he’s always wanted.

‘The Crossing’ Series Preview: Photos, Plot and Cast Info

ABC’s set an April 2, 2018 midseason premiere date for the sci-fi drama, The Crossing. The new series comes from executive producers Dan Dworkin and Jay Beattie and involves the sudden appearance of dozens of refugees from the future showing up in Oregon. The Crossing will air on Mondays at 10pm ET/PT and stars Steve Zahn as the sheriff of the town that finds itself at the center of this bizarre event.

In addition to Steve Zahn, The Crossing cast includes Natalie Martinez as Reece, Sandrine Holt as Emma Ren, Georgina Haig as Dr. Sophie Forbin, Tommy Bastow as Marshall, Rob Campbell as Paul, Rick Gomez as Nestor Rosario, Marcuis W. Harris as Caleb, Grant Harvey as Roy Aronson, Jay Karnes as Craig Lindauer, Simone Kessell as Rebecca, Kelley Missal as Hannah, Luc Roderique as Bryce Foster, and Bailey Skodje as Leah.

Dworkin and Beattie wrote the pilot and Rob Bowman directed. Matt Olmstead, Jason Reed and David Von Ancken are on board as executive producers.


The Plot: Jude Ellis (Steve Zahn) is the sheriff of Port Canaan, a small fishing town on the Oregon coast. Having relocated from Oakland to escape a strained marriage and a dark past as a big city cop, his goal is to build a quiet new life for himself and for, eventually, his young son. But those plans for a quiet life change instantly when 47 refugees from a war-torn country wash up on his beach seeking asylum. But the country they’re from is America … and the war they’re fleeing is 180 years in the future. As the Feds set out to uncover the truth behind the mysterious migration, Jude will launch an investigation of his own with the help of his loyal sheriff’s deputy, and Port Canaan native, Nestor Rosario (Rick Gomez).

Reece (Natalie Martinez) is a refugee too, but she’s different. She’s an “Apex,” a member of a genetically engineered human population that possess dramatically heightened physical and mental traits. While in the future she was a soldier – tasked with eliminating members of the lower “Common” class – her only goal once she arrives in Port Canaan is to find her daughter, Leah (Bailey Skodje), from whom she is separated during the Crossing, and who is then taken to a secret camp with the rest of the new arrivals. As Leah tries to adapt to her new surroundings with the other refugees, she will find herself fighting a devastating virus that she has brought with her from the future. But Reece has raised a fighter – capable, resourceful and brave.

Leading the investigation for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is Emma Ren (Sandrine Holt), whose dogged pursuit of the truth is complicated by the fact that her boss, wily DHS Undersecretary Craig Lindauer (Jay Karnes), seems to know a lot more about the migration than he’s telling her. Emma’s second-in-command is Bryce Foster (Luc Roderique), a young, empathetic agent who comes to find himself in over his head. DHS camp guard Roy Aronson is a straight arrow, but his by-the-book nature will be tested once he becomes romantically interested in one of the refugees. Another vital member of the government team is virologist Dr. Sophie Forbin (Georgina Haig), who is inquisitive, driven and has her own personal reasons for researching the Apex phenomenon and what it could mean to the future of science.

The survivors who fled the future in search of a better life include Caleb (Marcuis W. Harris) and his wife, Rebecca (Simone Kessell), who are still struggling with the painful loss of their daughter; Hannah (Kelley Missal), whose sweet exterior masks a gritty survivor who has learned the hard way what it takes to survive; and Paul (Rob Campbell) who is anxious, haunted and desperate to see the outside world.

The news of this mysterious arrival will have the locals buzzing with their own theories, including twentysomething-year-old Marshall (Tommy Bastow), whose disdain for rules and authority will put him on a collision course with some very powerful people once he starts peeling back the layers of the refugee mystery.

As the search for answers in this small town gets underway, the lives of the people here – both the townspeople and these newcomers – will never be the same.
