Father, the owner of the dept. store, was going to get killed? Why?


We saw that the owner of the store, Jack Matheson, was going to get killed in his own home, until his son showed up at the home. Then we find out why the people are getting killed. Now I don't get it. Why was Jack going to get killed? What was his role in the whole ordeal? And why was the security guard getting killed in the end? Did he really know that the girl was killed?

Yes, that was her way of making sure that Max didn't quit and would continue to try to help her.

1. We saw that the owner of the store, Jack Matheson, was going to get killed in his own home, until his son showed up at the home. Then we find out why the people are getting killed. Now I don't get it. Why was Jack going to get killed?

Eleanor didn't want Max to quit the job as she wanted him to keep investigating.

2. What was his role in the whole ordeal?

None. He was used by Eleanor to manipulate Max into keeping his job.

3. And why was the security guard getting killed in the end?

a) he helped Keller to push the iron tube against the crawlspace, cleaned up the crime scene, erased the video, and kept the incident a secret. He chose his job over justice. In Eleanor's eyes, he was just as bad as the others.

4. Did he really know that the girl was killed?

Yes, of course. Although Henry didn't question Keller's actions and orders, he wasn't stupid. He could put two together and figure out what went on. He chose to turn a blind eye to protect his job. I think he figured that if he did his part, Keller would make sure Henry could keep his job for life. Good emotional blackmail material, isn't it?
