Without a Trace Episode 7.02 22 x 42

At a glam roof top party in lower Manhattan, we find Sarah Kent (late 20s), a junior executive at a high-end apparel company. The company is about to be bought out and the vibe is festive. Hard-working Sarah has been a key player in the company's success and she's the belle of the ball. But when her mood inexplicably turns dark, she abruptly exits the party. She climbs in a cab downstairs and a masked man chloroforms her.

The episode uniquely tracks our victim's terrifying POV, including her own desperate flashbacks as she tries to make sense of her predicament. Meanwhile our agents scramble to unravel her life. They zero in on several troubled avenues, including the fact that Sarah was the reluctant key tender of a corporate apartment that's devolved into a place for secret liaisons. Did one of her adulterous colleagues want to keep Sarah quiet? Our agents then interrogate her charming but deadbeat dad, addicted to booze and gambling. Could someone from his seedy underworld have something to do with his daughter's disappearance? As the clock ticks, our agents discover the secret that placed Sarah in her greatest peril: a clandestine romantic life with a lover who's willing to sacrifice her. It's an exciting cat and mouse chase as our agents race against time to save her...
