... we're in the Hilton Garden Inn.

Yes.

It's a very large company in the United States, and we're in Nairobi.

Yes.

And it feels like a Hilton Garden Inn in the United States.

Yes.

Even though almost nothing else in Nairobi [laughs]

Uh, let's say you're staying at a hotel.

You're at, like, whatever, the Hilton Garden Inn.

Mm-hmm.

that's Crazy.

Part of the funeral party? No, no, no.

I'll sleep in the car before we stay here.

So we go to a Hilton Garden Inn, not the fanciest of places, but solid down the street.

We end up getting it actually at a rate that was basically the same.

Search teams gathered each morning with parties going out three times a week, combing over the woods outside of Bloomington, combing over everything.

So soon, Lauren's disappearance garnered national headlines as celebrities took to social media to share her story using the hashtag FindLauren.

So we get in the car, and I put the address in, and I realize very quickly that where we're going is inside a hotel.

It's like the restaurant inside the Hilton Garden Inn.

Oh, okay.

Can you picture it?

You're not staying here, and there are 10,000 restaurants within spitting distance.

[laughs]
