The most obvious and likely explanation is that Z's wife and kids never left that house. The talking was imprisoned people, his family, and the dark figure was some homeless guy or acquaintance who was helping Z imprison his family for a place to stay. Z probably decided to leave the situation and let his young neighbor discover his prisoners and have it blamed on the dark cloaked guy.

If you find yourself in a dangerous situation with dangerous people call the cops, to at least get a paper trail it will make it much easier for the cops to do something and stop the criminals from hurting someone else. If someone gets hurt because you didn't want to take the time to file a police report then your part of the problem.

The story about car accident and been chased by 3 me with weapons was clearly a girl whom over exaggerating a one sided scenario. Lets overthink on the possible situation of the three mens point of view lol. A car has tragically landed in their private property. The men Wales over to assure everything is alright, they see no one but then notice someone running off in the distance as sketchy as ever and have no idea what that is all about:. When looking through the vehicle they see it possibly belongs to someone who looks like a decent human but touting two and two, the person running was not so decent and had no reason to run, so maybe only reasonable inclusion, THE CAR IS STOLEN! Therefore, why not rummage the vehicle for what may be of value to them, oh and uncle Tim is missing the inside roof light bulb to his Nissan Maxima and it looks like this one might just fit! Lol sometimes people over think, and their over thoughts are so one minded!

There is nothing weird about an old man working on a project at night. it might have looked weird but you don't know what it was.
