In England, Sam and Dante head to a local pub looking for Maggie. The owner (played by Heather Olt) asks if she can help them, and they explain they are searching for Maggie Fitzgerald, who worked as a nanny for someone they know and needs help. The woman says she doesn’t know of a Maggie, but she knows of a Marjorie who was once a nanny, and she comes in from time to time to play trivia. Sam explains a woman she cared for, Esme Prince, is in trouble so they need to find her. They believe Maggie would want to help Esme.
