I tried my best to transcribe the video, because there is more evidence in there than I heard the first time.

BD: “The last time I really for sure seen her was Thursday morning when I went to work. I gave her a hug and a kiss. She woke me up, told me it was time for work. Filled the baby’s cup up. I got dressed. I gave her a hug and kiss again. I told her I loved her, and she told me she would see me when I got home. I gave her Brooklyn’s cup and went to work. And when I come in that evening, I come in and… <clears throat> Brooklyn’s cup, I checked her cup. Her cup was cold. Um, I looked, and I was like, well, there’s a laundry basket missing she’s just doing laundry. I mean, it’s not uncommon for me to come home and her be doing laundry. And Brooklyn be there asleep, it’s not uncommon. It happens. I mean, it’s just right there. And so, I mean, I didn’t really think to go look, I mean. I didn’t, I mean, and I feel bad that I didn’t now, but I didn’t think nothing about it. So I laid down, and like I told the police, I’m not for sure, but I can say I kinda remember giving her a hug and a kiss and then she was getting in bed and told me she would see me in the morning, but I’m not for sure, I don’t know. I might have been dreaming, I don’t know. And…
Reporter: “So what time did you go to bed that night?
BD: Probably 9, 9:30, 10… I’m not totally for sure. I come in around 8-8:30 and I took a shower and I got in the bed and I was gonna wait up for her, I don’t know for sure what time I went to sleep. I had the TV on, and I was gonna wait up for her and I just fell asleep. And when I woke up, I woke up to Brooklyn, wanting a cup. And I got up, and I did a few things here and I had some phone calls and then it registered with me that she wasn’t here. And I was like, OK, and she’s not at the Laundromat, and I went and looked and I went to calling her family, and she’s just…. She’s just gone.”
Reporter: “Is there, and there’s, what it was the first thing you thought when you were going down, going door to door and she just wasn’t showing up...”
BD: <interrupts> “Maybe she just went somewhere. Maybe she just went somewhere and didn’t tell nobody and she just went…, or… and she knew I was there with Brooklyn and everything was safe and she was there, she just woke up and left and went.” <shrugs>
Reporter: “And Brooklyn couldn’t say anything. She’s too young. She couldn’t say.”
BD: “I asked her. I said, ‘Where’d Mommy go?’ and she just said, ‘Outside, Daddy. Outside.’ That’s all she’d say………. And I don’t know.”
Reporter: “And, what’s your instinct right now? I mean, did Brittany have enemies? Did people not like her? Did she know anyone around here?”
BD: “As far as enemies and people not liking her, we didn’t know nobody here. I mean, she had some conflicts with her ex-stepmother and stuff like that, and her and her ex, the baby’s dad, the actual daddy didn’t have a real good past, but I mean… I don’t know.”
Reporter: “Did you ever fear for her in any of those conflicts… like physically? Were you ever actually worried about her?”
BD: “Nobody ever knew where she was, so no. I wouldn’t dare. I mean, no.”
Reporter: “So what do you think… how do you feel about it now that she’s been gone for 5 days and it doesn’t seem like there’s…”
BD : <interrupts> “Everybody just keeps talking about the worst and all this other and I mean, that’s… and I refuse to think that way right now, because I can’t mentally take it. I will mentally break down. I can’t think of nothing bad happening to her. She’s my life and my soul, I mean, she means everything to me. I just want to think she wanted a break, and was gone, and she’s just gonna walk back up.”
Reporter: “Could she have wanted a break?”
BD: “Everything was fine. She told me she was happy. We were talking about getting married. Been looking at rings and dresses and all this other, I mean. The only thing she complained to me about was clothes. Help me with the clothes. But that’s everyday life. And I told her I would. “
Reporter: “So do you have any instincts right now? Do you think …. I mean, Hwy 49 is a busy road and is really close, I mean.... she could have been… is that a concern? Is there something inside telling you it was family or someone she knew?”
BD: “No, no. I don’t. I try not to think about the worst. I don’t. I don’t want to think about it, because I don’t. I refuse to think something has happened. I just want to think that…..”
Reporter: “ And you’re still probably <inaudible.> Did she have a cell phone or anything? “
BD: “No, she kept putting it off. We went to go get a cell phone, and instead of getting a phone, she wanted to get family things. Do this, and all this other, I mean, that’s all the camper is full with is stuff she wanted to have instead of a phone. She wanted the family pictures, and so we went and took family pictures. She wanted stuff to put the family pictures in where it said, ‘Happy Family’ and ‘Where Family is is where Home is.’ She’s told me that she’s been the happiest with me that she’s ever been because this is the first time in her life she didn’t have to worry. Anything she wanted, she got. I mean, you could ask Brooklyn, and you’d… we were just talking about it, laughing about it how you could ask Brooklyn ‘what does mommy say?’ and she’d say, ‘No, no, no, bad, bad, bad. Go night night’ and she’d be like, ‘well, what did Daddy say?’ and she’d say, ‘Ok.’ Because I never told them no. Whatever they wanted. “
Reporter: “Do you know of anyone in Louisiana that investigators could be referring to that she was talking to?”
BD: “I don’t know anybody that was that. I mean, I don’t. I didn’t know she was talking to no one. I mean, she was here. She talked to her sister. She talked to her mother, and all them, and I mean, she told them we were getting married and stuff. That was the thing. Me and her sister and us, we were gonna have a double wedding. And then we talked about how they wouldn’t be able to have a double wedding because they would be at each other’s throats on who was gonna do what. “
Reporter: “Everything the day before… the day you saw her… was normal?”
BD: Everything was fine. My next job was down in Picayune, and we went down there. We did 911 registry, we put the lights and everything in both of our names and all that because she wanted to build her credit. I mean, everything we were doing was working up to buying land and having a house and being a family because that’s what we were. We were a happy family. “
Reporter: “And what’s your hope right now?”
BD: “That she just walks up, and is mad at me for calling everybody. “
Reporter: “And how long were you guys together?”
BD: “Like, physically, physically together? Two, two and a half months.”
Reporter: “But you’ve known each other for longer, right?”
BD: <nods>
Reporter: <inaudible> Ok, um… how long did you know each other? How did you know each other, by living in the same town or something?”
BD: <nods> “She used to date one of my cousins and me and her brother is friends and her sister is just a little bit younger than me and all that. And we’re all around the same age. I mean, she’s younger than me, but I mean, her brother and all that, I mean, we’ve all been friends. “
Reporter: “And you were not worried about her physically because there wasn’t any conflict?”
BD: <shakes head> Not. Nothing, I mean, nothing. Nothing at all, really. We were happy.”
Reporter: “Was she ever reckless or anything like that? Did you have to tell her to be careful?”
BD: “With a homeless guy. Feeding a homeless guy. I was like, ‘Look, you just gotta watch out. You don’t know how people are.’ She said, ‘He’s homeless. I leave his food and his plate, and we go back and get it.’”
Reporter: “Ok. Alright. Uhhhh… do you have anything you want to say that I didn’t ask?”
BD: “I guess I want everybody to keep her in your prayers. That she comes home safe.”
<starts to cry and cover his face>
Reporter: “I’m sorry I put you through that.”
BD: <nods>
