(Introduction to show begins)

Todd Matthews (Missing Pieces Host): "Welcome to missing pieces. Tonight we have Glendene Grant, her daughter, Jessica Louise Foster, now 22 years old, went missing in Las Vegas in May 2005. Welcome Glendene."

Glendene Grant(Guest): "Well, uh, thank you. Thank you very much.

Todd Matthews: "It's been a long time coming. We've talked since October, I think of 2006."

Glendene Grant: "Thank is correct. We have and I have been looking forward to this for, ever since then."

Todd Matthews: "Me as well. We have so many people that were trying to work into this spot and tried to interview as many people as possible and give them an opportunity to speak, because so many times in the media, I found that you really don't have enough time to talk, or are locked into a certain situation where you're speaking of a certain percentage of the case and you know, we're hoping to give you an entire hour where we can to wherever you want to go with this case, and maybe bet off your chest something you'd like to talk about of a certain case. I got a letter from you dated Oct. 8, 2006. 'My name is Glendene Grant, I recently received an email from a friend of yours named Lauren Hallack, whom I now consider a friend. She gave me your email address so I could send you my story about my daughter.' And your daughter is Jessica. Now, you're in Canada. What part of Canada do you live in?"

Glendene Grant: "I'm in western Canada, in Kamloops, BC."

Todd Matthews: "OK, and your daughter, this is also where she's from?"

Glendene Grant: "That's correct."

Todd Matthews: "OK."

Glendene Grant: "She was raised here. Well, she lived here from the time she was 3, when we moved back to Kamloops."

Todd Matthews: (~Todd 'Missing Pieces Host' acknowledges guest statement~) "Um-hum."

Glendene Grant: "Until she was 16 and she wanted to go live with her day to complete grades 11 & 12 of high school. And he lives in Calgary, AB, the next province over.

Todd Matthews: "OK. This is May 2006?"
