Keegan always felt that Larry was a bit too concerned about Stella.

Getting reassigned and having a pay cut when you're already strapped for cash would make most people resentful.

But not only did Larry not complain, he even gave Stella a drawing by his own son, which was quite unusual.

Mistaken for a wealthy family's child, the kidnappers demanded a ransom, but the wealthy family refused to pay.

The police, fearing the kidnappers might harm the child, didn't inform them they had the wrong kid.
