Nick follows Sharon's eyes, also considering if the other Rey would be smart enough to plant a few false leads and dead ends; however, he figures if she's smart enough to have done that, she'd be smart enough to try to beat him home to wash away the evidence. Whether she'd been unlucky with her timing or just plain cocky, it works to their advantage -- if this isn't the spot, then they've got to be close.
He takes a look around for any other signs: there are some drag marks here and there, and while there are prints all around the mound of packed dirt, there's one set that's deeper than the rest, as though someone stood there for a while while refilling the hole, their weight letting them sink into the soft terrain. He'll take his bet on this being where the real Rey is.
Which means they need to get to her, and fast. He leans heavily on his cane, offering Sharon the shovel. "I'll see if I can't find another one while you get started. And if you hear anything, dig faster."
