But, here's where things start to get really weird. Joan walking to the exit is the last confirmed sighting of her by
00:00:07
anyone who knew her. But, the best lead that police get is actually from someone who doesn't even
00:00:13
know her at all. Sometime in the first week of the investigation, this cab driver comes forward and says that
00:00:19
around 10:45 p.m. that night, a woman matching Joan's description came up to his cab outside the terminal, like
00:00:27
knocked on his window, and asked Cambridge, right? That's where Harvard is. Feels a lot like Joan.
00:00:33
>> Yeah. But, the woman wasn't alone. According to the driver, an older man was with her. Not like old old, but like
00:00:42
older than the 25-year-old Joan, right? And the driver thought maybe this guy's like in his 40s. He's a white guy, about
00:00:48
5'7" with curly hair and a beard, and he was wearing these like round glasses, which was like, I think pretty common
00:00:54
for the time. Now, this matches no one that Joan's family claims to know. But, the driver said that the woman
00:01:01
seemed [music] to know this guy. >> felt like familiar. Yeah, or the woman who we think is Joan. But, here's where
00:01:05
things start to get really weird. So, this driver's like, "Yep, Cambridge, I got you." So, the driver goes to pick up
00:01:11
the guy's suitcase, and it is super heavy. So, he makes a comment to the guy about how heavy the suitcase was.
00:01:19
And all of a sudden, the man gets really aggressive. He told the driver he didn't
00:01:23
like the way that he was handling his luggage, and he told the woman, "You know what? Like, we don't even need this
00:01:28
cab after all." So, he pulls the luggage back out of the trunk and leads her away
00:01:32
toward another cab, this blue [music] one. And this cab driver just kind of like watches as they drive off in this
00:01:40
blue car.
