You may be right about the cook, but I think he could have been outside having a smoke, or bringing out the trash, and could have been walking back in at the same time he saw her walking to the car. He may have thought it was just someone she knew, and thought nothing more about it and went back inside of the building.What I’m confused about is the cook. Something doesn’t make sense, because he saw her go out to talk to this car, but he doesn’t know if she went inside the car ? Also according to information that I’ve seen he was the main one providing this information about this mystery car. So wouldn’t that be kind of strange if she never came back in the restaurant? Like wouldn’t he wonder where she was? Especially if he was the last one closing up the restaurant?
Also there’s another way to look at her phone and her cards being left there, that could’ve been intended to make it look like she abruptly left and was told to get in this car quickly or didn’t want to be tracked. Or the perp just didn’t think about where her phone her cards were??

I think if he was involved, he would have never said a thing about anything. That drew the attention towards him with LE asking questions. The only reason I think he would have said something, would be if he was involved directly and wanted to divert attention away from him, and towards someone in a dark car, but that means she would have had to hang around til he was done working, (if cooks are the last to leave) and left with him. She would have been seen waiting.
Just my thoughts.
