Missing (1982): Trying to Throw Ed off the Scent

The clip trying to throw ed off the scent from Missing (1982)

Hello, Beth. Mr. Horman, my name's Kate Newman. I'm a reporter.
Is it true you are fed up with the way the embassy's been handling this
and you're planning your own investigation?
There's Putnam.
Er...
I'm not interested in challenging them, I'm concerned with getting back my son.
Excuse us, please.
Beth, get him to talk to me.
OK.
OK.
What happened?
Shall we sit down?
Is there any news?
We backtracked over all our military leads so far.
They still deny knowledge of his arrest.
We had a fingerprint check made at all the morgues. Came up negative.
Do you trust your sources?
Captain Tower checked them.
Then I'm sure they're impeccable.
What we need now
is more background information, mostly from Beth.
For example, why you were living here.
We were tired of seeing the world through the New York Times.
Why this county?
Of all Latin America,
this seemed the best.
Politically?
In every way, till your generals took over.
They're not our generals.
Why don't we shift our ground a little here?
Beth, what was Charles doing?
Was?
I'm sorry. What kind of work is Charles doing?
He's working on an animated children's film and he writes articles.
Articles for FIN?
What is FIN?
It's a left-wing newspaper.
It is not left-wing. Besides, he doesn't write for it.
He translates news stories for such bastions of communism
as the New York Post and the Wall Street Journal.
There's another theory.
What?
That your son was picked up by leftists posing as soldiers.
As a matter of fact, there are even people who think it may have been his idea.
You've gotta be kidding me.
He could've done it to make it look like the government are arresting Americans.
