" No you're not. I was planning to drive over Saturday and meet with you in private, lay out everything from six murders. Give some guidance here, Lacy."
"I'm out of town this weekend, Jeri. I'm sorry."

Thanks

The full sentence implied is something like "You are lying about that, and we both know it.
