However he insists on wanting to talk to him. She orders a burger and takes him to a blind spot where the cameras are not filming them.

Simon tells her what he really thinks happened to victim No. 9: Dr. Langdon framed the crime scene to look like the welfare mom killer and planted evidence, so she could finally arrest him. Realizing he is on to her she threatens to kill him with a pulmonary embolism so no one will suspect it to be murder. Simon says his friends are nearby and there are cameras everywhere.
