honest living, we're living a happy country life. >> we, sasser figured, included bobbi parker, but he wanted proof that she was still alive. >> he said, of course she's still alive, do you want to talk to her? >> i was in bed sleeping. he told me he would put me on the phone. i said, i'm tired, i'm really tired. and reached back here for his gun. i said -- i put my hand up, i said -- he told me, just stick to the questions that he asks you. >> but even with dial right next to her, bobbi says she dared to go off script. after all, sasser was a former detective. this might be her chance. >> i said, have you seen my children? i knew i'd probably be beat for it, but sometimes it's worth it. i thought he would say would you like me to make a phone call to them, and he didn't.
