1
00:01:56,748 --> 00:01:58,514
Something wrong?

2
00:01:58,516 --> 00:01:59,849
Oh, it's my mom.

3
00:01:59,851 --> 00:02:01,851
A pipe burst last night,

4
00:02:01,853 --> 00:02:03,853
and now her living room is flooded.

5
00:02:03,855 --> 00:02:05,054
Ugh.

6
00:02:05,056 --> 00:02:07,690
Yeah. Repairs are gonna
take 3 weeks minimum,

7
00:02:07,692 --> 00:02:09,525
and she has asked to stay with me.

8
00:02:09,527 --> 00:02:11,928
That's good, right? I mean, out
of all the people in her life,

9
00:02:11,930 --> 00:02:13,029
you're the one that she chose to...

10
00:02:13,031 --> 00:02:14,997
Yeah, I was her only option, Spence.

11
00:02:14,999 --> 00:02:16,099
Ah.

12
00:02:16,101 --> 00:02:18,534
Trust me, she would much rather

13
00:02:18,536 --> 00:02:21,504
rent something on her
own closer to home,

14
00:02:21,506 --> 00:02:23,773
but apparently money's a little tight.

15
00:02:23,775 --> 00:02:26,375
I know our relationship hasn't
always been smooth sailing,

16
00:02:26,377 --> 00:02:30,279
but I don't know, maybe
this time it'll be different.

17
00:02:30,281 --> 00:02:32,148
Maybe it will.

18
00:02:32,150 --> 00:02:33,449
Didn't you tell me your house is having

19
00:02:33,451 --> 00:02:34,784
a top-to-bottom
paint job this week?

20
00:02:34,786 --> 00:02:36,552
Mm-hmm. As of this morning.

21
00:02:36,554 --> 00:02:38,054
What are you gonna do?

22
00:02:38,056 --> 00:02:40,556
Well, Will took the boys to
Florida for a couple days.

23
00:02:40,558 --> 00:02:42,658
I just rented a hotel room in the city.

24
00:02:42,660 --> 00:02:45,795
Ooh, I guess I better upgrade
to that junior suite now, huh?

25
00:02:45,797 --> 00:02:47,230
Let me know if you need anything...

26
00:02:47,232 --> 00:02:49,599
Books, food, shoulder to cry on.

27
00:02:49,601 --> 00:02:51,667
Mmm. What was that last one?

28
00:02:52,804 --> 00:02:55,938
All right, just please
keep your phone handy.

29
00:02:58,243 --> 00:02:59,575
What do we have?

30
00:02:59,577 --> 00:03:01,310
Last night 3
10-year-old kids

31
00:03:01,312 --> 00:03:03,679
went missing from their
homes in Wesser, Iowa.

32
00:03:03,681 --> 00:03:05,815
The parents didn't notice they were
gone until they woke up this morning.

33
00:03:05,817 --> 00:03:08,451
Well, all of the families
slept through the abductions.

34
00:03:08,453 --> 00:03:09,986
There must not have
been much of a struggle.

35
00:03:09,988 --> 00:03:11,954
No signs of forced entry, either.

36
00:03:11,956 --> 00:03:13,289
Neighbors didn't hear a sound.

37
00:03:13,291 --> 00:03:14,757
Look, I'm not minimizing this,

38
00:03:14,759 --> 00:03:16,893
but is it possible this
wasn't an abduction at all?

39
00:03:16,895 --> 00:03:18,461
I mean, group
of 10-year-olds,

40
00:03:18,463 --> 00:03:20,029
tip-toe exit in the
middle of the night.

41
00:03:20,031 --> 00:03:21,197
She's got a good point.

42
00:03:21,199 --> 00:03:22,465
I mean, what if the kids
just made a bad decision

43
00:03:22,467 --> 00:03:23,833
to sneak out on a big
adventure together?

44
00:03:23,835 --> 00:03:25,468
I was wondering that myself,

45
00:03:25,470 --> 00:03:27,670
but it was nearly freezing last night,

46
00:03:27,672 --> 00:03:30,473
and it appears all the kids
left wearing their pajamas.

47
00:03:30,475 --> 00:03:32,475
None of them took any clothing or food.

48
00:03:32,477 --> 00:03:33,709
Maybe it's a straight-up kidnapping.

49
00:03:33,711 --> 00:03:35,378
The ransom demands
could be on their way.

50
00:03:35,380 --> 00:03:37,647
JJ has some personal
business to attend to here,

51
00:03:37,649 --> 00:03:39,348
but she will be consulting by phone.

52
00:03:39,350 --> 00:03:41,484
For the rest of us, wheels up.

53
00:03:49,294 --> 00:03:51,694
Oh, no.

54
00:03:51,696 --> 00:03:53,763
Guys, guys, guys. There's
something that just came in.

55
00:03:53,765 --> 00:03:55,198
You need to see it.

56
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,066
It's from Wesser P.D.
It's surveillance footage

57
00:03:57,068 --> 00:03:58,834
from a neighborhood park.

58
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,440
Those are the kids.

59
00:04:05,977 --> 00:04:08,110
What the hell is going on?

60
00:04:10,381 --> 00:04:12,315
Garcia, can you zoom in on that, please?

Graham Greene.

65
00:05:20,294 --> 00:05:21,827
40 years in law enforcement,

66
00:05:21,829 --> 00:05:23,629
I've never seen an abduction like this.

67
00:05:24,530 --> 00:05:26,830
The children appear to be complicit.

68
00:05:26,832 --> 00:05:29,166
I mean, they went to
the unsub voluntarily.

69
00:05:29,168 --> 00:05:30,934
Yeah, but watch the last child's face.

70
00:05:30,936 --> 00:05:33,737
It's like he senses something
wrong at the last moment.

71
00:05:33,739 --> 00:05:35,606
There's still no ransom demand.

72
00:05:35,608 --> 00:05:37,107
That plus the tape,

73
00:05:37,109 --> 00:05:38,848
this is looking less and
less like a kidnapping.

74
00:05:38,849 --> 00:05:41,315
Normally I'd think
this was a sex offender,

75
00:05:41,317 --> 00:05:44,552
but pedophiles almost never abduct
more than one child at a time.

76
00:05:44,554 --> 00:05:48,055
If for no other reason than it's
hard to control multiple victims.

77
00:05:48,057 --> 00:05:49,423
I don't know. The kids on the swing set

78
00:05:49,425 --> 00:05:51,158
looked pretty damn controlled.

79
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,962
Maybe they were drugged somehow earlier.

80
00:05:54,964 --> 00:05:56,130
What do we know about these kids?

81
00:05:56,132 --> 00:05:57,565
They were all good students,

82
00:05:57,567 --> 00:06:00,301
stable homes, no
behavioral issues at all.

83
00:06:00,303 --> 00:06:02,503
When we land, I'll
coordinate with Agent Channing

84
00:06:02,505 --> 00:06:05,439
who's already on the ground with her
child abduction rapid deployment team.

85
00:06:05,441 --> 00:06:08,175
The rest of you pair up,
go to the children's homes,

86
00:06:08,177 --> 00:06:09,276
talk to their parents.

87
00:06:09,278 --> 00:06:10,778
We need to get a sense of these kids.

88
00:06:10,780 --> 00:06:14,114
Someone or something got ahold of them.

89
00:06:14,116 --> 00:06:16,250
We need to find out what.

90
00:06:17,253 --> 00:06:19,386
Ok, catch me up, Agent Channing.

91
00:06:19,388 --> 00:06:21,222
We've got local P.D.
canvassing the neighborhood

92
00:06:21,224 --> 00:06:22,857
looking for home surveillance cameras.

93
00:06:22,859 --> 00:06:25,526
Good. We'll set up
monitors here for viewing.

94
00:06:25,528 --> 00:06:26,660
Our CARD team has handled hundreds

95
00:06:26,662 --> 00:06:28,162
of child abduction cases.

96
00:06:28,164 --> 00:06:29,497
But something like this,

97
00:06:29,499 --> 00:06:31,999
we're in uncharted territory.

98
00:06:33,135 --> 00:06:34,401
Have you met the mayor yet?

99
00:06:34,403 --> 00:06:36,170
- No.
- Buckle up.

100
00:06:39,242 --> 00:06:41,609
Are you the other FBI person?

101
00:06:41,611 --> 00:06:43,344
SSA Prentiss.

102
00:06:43,346 --> 00:06:44,678
I understand you're the mayor.

103
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:45,946
Rob Tremaine.

104
00:06:45,948 --> 00:06:47,681
Can someone please tell
me what's being done

105
00:06:47,683 --> 00:06:48,816
to get to the bottom of this?

106
00:06:48,818 --> 00:06:51,452
Our BAU team is in place, Mayor,

107
00:06:51,454 --> 00:06:52,987
and we're very good at what we do.

108
00:06:52,989 --> 00:06:54,221
I'm talking about specifics.

109
00:06:54,223 --> 00:06:55,856
What specifically are you doing?

110
00:06:55,858 --> 00:06:58,659
Honey, I'm going home with Timmy.

111
00:06:58,661 --> 00:07:01,195
Take a deep breath.

112
00:07:03,466 --> 00:07:07,034
Look, I'm sorry. I don't
mean to come on strong,

113
00:07:07,036 --> 00:07:08,202
but a thing like this.

114
00:07:08,204 --> 00:07:09,603
I understand.

115
00:07:09,605 --> 00:07:12,439
But it is important for
you to present a calm

116
00:07:12,441 --> 00:07:14,875
and confident face to
your community right now.

117
00:07:14,877 --> 00:07:16,410
Well, that's easier said than done.

118
00:07:16,412 --> 00:07:18,312
3 kids in one night?

119
00:07:18,314 --> 00:07:21,315
How do we know that this
maniac isn't going to take more?

120
00:07:21,317 --> 00:07:23,684
We don't.

121
00:07:26,556 --> 00:07:28,789
This can't be happening.

122
00:07:28,791 --> 00:07:32,259
It's like a nightmare
and I can't wake up.

123
00:07:34,130 --> 00:07:36,931
Your son was plugged in.

124
00:07:36,933 --> 00:07:39,934
Joey's addicted to his screens.

125
00:07:39,936 --> 00:07:42,770
I have kids myself.
I know what you mean.

126
00:07:42,772 --> 00:07:45,806
Did your son make this?

127
00:07:45,808 --> 00:07:50,344
Yes. He loved doing papier-mache.

128
00:07:50,346 --> 00:07:51,912
It's practically the only thing

129
00:07:51,914 --> 00:07:54,615
that could tear him away
from his electronics.

130
00:07:54,617 --> 00:07:59,520
Do you think that this is
how this person got Joey,

131
00:07:59,522 --> 00:08:01,655
like a chat room or something?

132
00:08:01,657 --> 00:08:04,692
We'll know more once we have a
chance to look at his computer.

133
00:08:04,694 --> 00:08:08,329
'Cause we monitored his online
activity as best we could.

134
00:08:08,331 --> 00:08:11,231
We put in filters, safeguards.

135
00:08:11,233 --> 00:08:12,866
But Joey and his friends,

136
00:08:12,868 --> 00:08:15,836
they know how to get around all of it.

137
00:08:15,838 --> 00:08:17,571
Oh, god.

138
00:08:17,573 --> 00:08:22,209
This cyber stuff, it's
their world, not ours.

139
00:08:27,984 --> 00:08:31,118
So why these kids and why now?

140
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,354
The behavior in the video, it
appears as though they're responding

141
00:08:33,356 --> 00:08:35,222
to a post-hypnotic suggestion.

142
00:08:35,224 --> 00:08:37,758
If true, that's an
awfully elaborate ruse.

143
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,226
The seeds for this
abduction must have been

144
00:08:39,228 --> 00:08:40,761
planted a long time ago.

145
00:08:40,763 --> 00:08:42,863
But the parents have
confirmed that these kids

146
00:08:42,865 --> 00:08:44,198
didn't really know one another.

147
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:45,966
They went to different schools.

148
00:08:45,968 --> 00:08:47,201
They didn't hang out socially.

149
00:08:47,203 --> 00:08:48,268
So where's the overlap?

150
00:08:48,270 --> 00:08:49,436
Maybe there isn't any.

151
00:08:49,438 --> 00:08:51,071
I mean, they could have been
selected randomly online.

152
00:08:51,073 --> 00:08:52,573
Except if this is a form of hypnosis,

153
00:08:52,575 --> 00:08:53,841
the unsub would need to know

154
00:08:53,843 --> 00:08:55,209
that the children are
susceptible to suggestion.

155
00:08:56,579 --> 00:08:57,778
You're on speaker, Garcia.

156
00:08:57,780 --> 00:08:58,746
Ok, I've gone through

157
00:08:58,748 --> 00:09:00,347
the registered sex offenders

158
00:09:00,349 --> 00:09:03,017
in a 50-mile radius of Wesser.

159
00:09:03,019 --> 00:09:05,519
And at the conclusion
of this phone call,

160
00:09:05,521 --> 00:09:07,554
I am going to take 3, maybe 4, showers,

161
00:09:07,556 --> 00:09:09,023
scrub myself with steel wool,

162
00:09:09,025 --> 00:09:10,190
during which time I'm
gonna tent the office,

163
00:09:10,192 --> 00:09:11,625
fumigate it, and when it clears out,

164
00:09:11,627 --> 00:09:12,660
I'm gonna fill it with kittens.

165
00:09:12,662 --> 00:09:13,794
You find anything?

166
00:09:13,796 --> 00:09:15,029
His name is Arthur Brodie.

167
00:09:15,031 --> 00:09:16,296
What about him?

168
00:09:16,298 --> 00:09:18,699
50 years old. He's got a long rap sheet

169
00:09:18,701 --> 00:09:19,933
of sexual deviancy,

170
00:09:19,935 --> 00:09:22,670
including but not limited to voyeurism,

171
00:09:22,672 --> 00:09:25,239
indecent exposure, possession
of child pornography,

172
00:09:25,241 --> 00:09:28,509
the stealing of young
women's undergarments.

173
00:09:28,511 --> 00:09:30,444
I'm definitely gonna need 4 showers.

174
00:09:30,446 --> 00:09:32,713
Why did Brodie pop out
more than any others?

175
00:09:32,715 --> 00:09:35,215
Well, thing one is he
was released a month ago

176
00:09:35,217 --> 00:09:38,252
after serving a 12-year
sentence for statutory rape.

177
00:09:38,254 --> 00:09:40,621
Thing two, he owns a white van

178
00:09:40,623 --> 00:09:43,323
that is eerily like the one
from the surveillance video.

179
00:09:43,325 --> 00:09:44,658
Does Brodie live in town?

180
00:09:44,660 --> 00:09:46,226
Yes. He lives with his mom.

181
00:09:46,228 --> 00:09:50,264
He works the graveyard shift
at an assembly plant in town.

182
00:09:50,266 --> 00:09:52,199
And if you'd like another
pop for this weasel,

183
00:09:52,201 --> 00:09:54,168
last night when the kids went missing,

184
00:09:54,170 --> 00:09:57,304
guess which bra thief
called in sick to work.

185
00:10:06,849 --> 00:10:08,582
Let me out!

186
00:10:08,584 --> 00:10:11,719
Let me out! Please, let me out!

187
00:10:13,522 --> 00:10:15,622
Let me out! Let me out! Please!

188
00:10:27,136 --> 00:10:29,403
I don't want to die.

189
00:10:29,405 --> 00:10:34,108
Don't worry. We're
gonna get out of here.

190
00:10:45,921 --> 00:10:47,154
Arthur Brodie?

191
00:10:47,156 --> 00:10:49,957
FBI. Your mother told us
we might find you here.

192
00:10:49,959 --> 00:10:51,291
What's the problem?

193
00:10:51,293 --> 00:10:52,559
I'm minding my own business.

194
00:10:52,561 --> 00:10:56,163
You minding your business or theirs?

195
00:10:56,165 --> 00:11:00,868
Heh. "Assembly and maintenance of
your Corvell 350 vacuum cleaner."

196
00:11:00,870 --> 00:11:02,069
Come on, Brodie.

197
00:11:02,071 --> 00:11:03,237
You want to pretend you're here to read,

198
00:11:03,239 --> 00:11:04,738
you got to do better than that.

199
00:11:04,740 --> 00:11:06,373
That your white van parked over there?

200
00:11:06,375 --> 00:11:08,108
You can't touch it without a warrant.

201
00:11:08,110 --> 00:11:09,276
I've got my rights.

202
00:11:09,278 --> 00:11:11,145
Yes, we can. And no, you don't.

203
00:11:11,147 --> 00:11:12,713
You're on parole. That's
all the warrant we need.

204
00:11:12,715 --> 00:11:14,214
The hell with you people.

205
00:11:14,216 --> 00:11:16,583
We're not done yet.

206
00:11:17,686 --> 00:11:19,853
Ahh!

207
00:11:23,659 --> 00:11:25,926
Now we're done.

208
00:11:27,897 --> 00:11:29,997
All right, Mom, here we are.

209
00:11:29,999 --> 00:11:33,066
All these years, I can't believe

210
00:11:33,068 --> 00:11:35,169
this is the first time
I've seen where you work.

211
00:11:35,171 --> 00:11:37,371
Wow. Ha ha!

212
00:11:37,373 --> 00:11:39,873
You're sure you don't want
me to take you to the mall?

213
00:11:39,875 --> 00:11:41,809
You could shop, watch a movie.

214
00:11:41,811 --> 00:11:44,077
No, right here's fine.

215
00:11:44,079 --> 00:11:46,513
You just do what you need
to do, and I will sit here,

216
00:11:46,515 --> 00:11:48,315
quiet as a mouse.

217
00:11:48,317 --> 00:11:49,983
Ok.

218
00:11:50,986 --> 00:11:52,653
Oh.

219
00:11:54,156 --> 00:11:55,756
Don't.

220
00:11:55,758 --> 00:11:57,925
Ok, uh, heh!

221
00:11:57,927 --> 00:12:00,360
I'm sorry. I was just...

222
00:12:00,362 --> 00:12:02,229
Don't look in the files.

223
00:12:02,231 --> 00:12:07,334
It can be difficult to process... Ok?

224
00:12:07,336 --> 00:12:09,369
Ok. Sorry.

225
00:12:09,371 --> 00:12:10,971
It's ok.

226
00:12:13,909 --> 00:12:16,243
Ok.

227
00:12:16,245 --> 00:12:18,545
You know what I thought might be fun?

228
00:12:18,547 --> 00:12:23,283
The two of us take a drive
out to Ocean City this weekend.

229
00:12:23,285 --> 00:12:26,220
I'm consulting on an active case, Mom,

230
00:12:26,222 --> 00:12:30,190
so until we close it,
there are no weekends.

231
00:12:30,192 --> 00:12:31,792
I haven't been to ocean city

232
00:12:31,794 --> 00:12:35,128
since you and Roz were
just little things.

233
00:12:35,130 --> 00:12:37,698
That's where your dad
and I took you girls

234
00:12:37,700 --> 00:12:40,400
to have lobster for the
first time, remember?

235
00:12:40,402 --> 00:12:42,302
No, not really.

236
00:12:43,439 --> 00:12:44,838
Yeah, funniest thing.

237
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,007
The lobsters were in a tank out front

238
00:12:47,009 --> 00:12:50,010
so the customers could
pick the one they wanted,

239
00:12:50,012 --> 00:12:56,116
but when the man reached in
to grab the one you picked...

240
00:12:56,118 --> 00:12:57,684
What?

241
00:12:57,686 --> 00:13:00,888
Well, it hit you that that poor fish

242
00:13:00,890 --> 00:13:02,556
was about to go get cooked.

243
00:13:02,558 --> 00:13:06,660
So you told that man to put
it right back where it was,

244
00:13:06,662 --> 00:13:09,429
and we had to order
you a hot dog instead.

245
00:13:09,431 --> 00:13:12,566
That's funny, I really...
I don't remember that at all.

246
00:13:12,568 --> 00:13:16,503
Well, I should have known you
were gonna be an FBI agent.

247
00:13:16,505 --> 00:13:20,340
Even back then, you were
all about saving lives.

248
00:13:24,046 --> 00:13:26,013
What's that abrasion on his forehead?

249
00:13:26,015 --> 00:13:28,615
Apparently he gave Lewis a shove

250
00:13:28,617 --> 00:13:31,118
and Reid went a little
cell block "D" on him.

251
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:32,219
Nice.

252
00:13:32,221 --> 00:13:34,288
Mr. Brodie, where were you last night?

253
00:13:34,290 --> 00:13:36,023
I don't got to say a thing.

254
00:13:36,025 --> 00:13:38,091
Well, actually, you do.

255
00:13:38,093 --> 00:13:40,193
That's one of the
rights a person gives up

256
00:13:40,195 --> 00:13:42,229
for assaulting underage girls.

257
00:13:42,231 --> 00:13:44,998
Nobody got assaulted. And it was a girl.

258
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,701
One. Me and Brandi were in love.

259
00:13:47,703 --> 00:13:49,603
That would be Brandi Nichols,

260
00:13:49,605 --> 00:13:50,671
eighth grader.

261
00:13:50,673 --> 00:13:54,074
Who was all of 13 years old in 2004

262
00:13:54,076 --> 00:13:56,610
when you first began
having sex with her.

263
00:13:56,612 --> 00:13:57,778
Hey, if that's a crime,
you better get out there

264
00:13:57,780 --> 00:13:59,513
and slap the cuffs on Shakespeare, too.

265
00:13:59,515 --> 00:14:00,614
Excuse me?

266
00:14:00,616 --> 00:14:01,682
Romeo and Juliet.

267
00:14:01,684 --> 00:14:04,518
You know how old she was? 13.

268
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,420
So how come with her,
it's this great romance,

269
00:14:06,422 --> 00:14:09,122
but when it was me and
Brandi, I'm a pervert?

270
00:14:09,124 --> 00:14:11,024
Now, my Shakespeare's a little rusty,

271
00:14:11,026 --> 00:14:14,061
but I don't remember Romeo
being a 50-year-old degenerate

272
00:14:14,063 --> 00:14:15,929
who collects girls' underwear.

273
00:14:15,931 --> 00:14:17,764
You didn't answer my
question, Mr. Brodie.

274
00:14:17,766 --> 00:14:21,234
Where were you last night between
the hours of 9 P.M. and 4 A.M.?

275
00:14:21,236 --> 00:14:24,004
At home with my mom.

276
00:14:24,006 --> 00:14:25,806
Call and ask.

277
00:14:25,808 --> 00:14:27,107
Now, if you're not gonna charge me

278
00:14:27,109 --> 00:14:28,575
with anything, then I'm...

279
00:14:28,577 --> 00:14:30,077
Oh, we're definitely gonna
charge you with something.

280
00:14:30,079 --> 00:14:33,313
Parole violation, assault
on a federal agent.

281
00:14:33,315 --> 00:14:34,815
That should get the ball rolling.

282
00:14:34,817 --> 00:14:36,149
Wait.

283
00:14:36,151 --> 00:14:38,285
I'm going to jail?

284
00:14:38,287 --> 00:14:39,519
Well, look at it this way.

285
00:14:39,521 --> 00:14:41,755
Someone asks you wherefore art thou,

286
00:14:41,757 --> 00:14:44,257
you know what to say.

287
00:14:45,661 --> 00:14:48,195
Ok, so we have a citywide
curfew in place tonight.

288
00:14:48,197 --> 00:14:49,696
I heard the good news about Brodie.

289
00:14:49,698 --> 00:14:51,264
I'm scheduling a press
conference to announce

290
00:14:51,266 --> 00:14:53,567
that we have our primary
suspect in custody.

291
00:14:53,569 --> 00:14:56,036
That's a little premature, Mayor.

292
00:14:56,038 --> 00:14:57,938
Why?

293
00:14:57,940 --> 00:15:00,507
Well, because people are gonna
think the danger is passed.

294
00:15:00,509 --> 00:15:01,608
It hasn't.

295
00:15:01,610 --> 00:15:02,709
Brodie's still a person of interest,

296
00:15:02,711 --> 00:15:05,445
but his van came back
clean and he has an alibi.

297
00:15:05,447 --> 00:15:08,315
You mean his mom?

298
00:15:08,317 --> 00:15:10,350
And the only reason the van is clean

299
00:15:10,352 --> 00:15:12,519
is because he cleaned it.

300
00:15:12,521 --> 00:15:14,921
We'll hold a press conference
when it's appropriate.

301
00:15:14,923 --> 00:15:16,289
Oh, good.

302
00:15:16,291 --> 00:15:17,791
When would that be,

303
00:15:17,793 --> 00:15:21,261
when the next batch
of kids goes missing?

304
00:15:21,263 --> 00:15:23,263
Unbelievable.

305
00:15:24,333 --> 00:15:25,832
Hmm.

306
00:15:25,834 --> 00:15:29,636
Look, I know he wants to tie this
all off in a tidy bow, but come on.

307
00:15:29,638 --> 00:15:31,772
You think Brodie's our guy?

308
00:15:31,774 --> 00:15:34,207
No, no. The guy's a moron.

309
00:15:34,209 --> 00:15:36,643
And morons don't grab children?

310
00:15:36,645 --> 00:15:38,245
Yeah, but this unsub isn't grabbing.

311
00:15:38,247 --> 00:15:39,746
The kids are going to him.

312
00:15:39,748 --> 00:15:41,681
For an offender to sink
in their hooks that deep

313
00:15:41,683 --> 00:15:44,051
requires patience, planning, and smarts,

314
00:15:44,053 --> 00:15:45,652
none of which is Brodie.

315
00:15:45,654 --> 00:15:47,054
At least this town's on high alert.

316
00:15:47,056 --> 00:15:48,655
I doubt there's a door in Wesser, Iowa

317
00:15:48,657 --> 00:15:50,557
that hasn't been double-
and triple-bolted.

318
00:15:50,559 --> 00:15:52,726
Let's hope that's enough.

319
00:17:27,138 --> 00:17:28,445
The unsub's sending a message...

320
00:17:28,446 --> 00:17:31,013
"take all the precautions you
want, I can still get your kids."

321
00:17:31,015 --> 00:17:33,315
Katie's father not only
double-locked the front door,

322
00:17:33,317 --> 00:17:35,184
he barricaded it with a couch.

323
00:17:35,186 --> 00:17:36,718
Did their daughter know any
of the other missing kids?

324
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,187
No, she was homeschooled.

325
00:17:38,189 --> 00:17:39,888
These kids are linked somehow.

326
00:17:39,890 --> 00:17:42,824
We need to widen out, look into
extracurricular activities...

327
00:17:42,826 --> 00:17:45,427
Sports, summer camps.

328
00:17:45,429 --> 00:17:47,262
The kids on the surveillance video,

329
00:17:47,264 --> 00:17:49,998
they looked like they
were on auto-pilot, right?

330
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:51,266
More like zombified.

331
00:17:51,268 --> 00:17:54,136
But Katie's parents put up a barricade.

332
00:17:54,138 --> 00:17:58,507
So she was forced to use
in-the-moment cognitive skills

333
00:17:58,509 --> 00:18:00,042
to circumvent the obstacle.

334
00:18:00,044 --> 00:18:02,678
Evaluate, problem-solve, improvise.

335
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:04,446
Not your average zombie's strong suit.

336
00:18:04,448 --> 00:18:05,948
Making it even more
likely that the unsub

337
00:18:05,950 --> 00:18:08,183
had previous personal
interactions with the children.

338
00:18:08,185 --> 00:18:11,553
The unsub dropped a packet
off at the local newspaper.

339
00:18:11,555 --> 00:18:12,955
It's on its way here now.

340
00:18:17,828 --> 00:18:20,729
I'm so cold.

341
00:18:20,731 --> 00:18:23,065
It'll be warmer if
we sit close together.

342
00:18:23,067 --> 00:18:25,601
Come on.

343
00:18:32,276 --> 00:18:34,409
It was found outside
the newspaper offices.

344
00:18:34,411 --> 00:18:35,844
Nobody saw who left it.

345
00:18:35,846 --> 00:18:39,314
Names of the first 3 kids.

346
00:18:41,852 --> 00:18:43,585
Nail clippings.

347
00:18:43,587 --> 00:18:46,888
So why send proof of life
with no ransom demand?

348
00:18:46,890 --> 00:18:49,992
There was a flash drive
in the envelope, too.

349
00:18:51,996 --> 00:18:56,431
How does it feel?

350
00:18:56,433 --> 00:18:58,700
What did he say?

351
00:18:58,702 --> 00:19:00,369
How does it feel?

352
00:19:00,371 --> 00:19:05,007
Our unsub used the expression
"how does it feel?".

353
00:19:05,009 --> 00:19:07,976
This indicates that,
while he abducted the kids,

354
00:19:07,978 --> 00:19:10,345
our unsub's anger is
focused on someone else.

355
00:19:10,347 --> 00:19:12,481
It also explains why there appears to be

356
00:19:12,483 --> 00:19:14,216
no deliberate harm to the children.

357
00:19:14,218 --> 00:19:16,752
The kids are merely a means to an end.

358
00:19:16,754 --> 00:19:18,787
He's not a sexual
predator nor a kidnapper

359
00:19:18,789 --> 00:19:20,122
in a traditional sense.

360
00:19:20,124 --> 00:19:22,424
This person is an injustice collector,

361
00:19:22,426 --> 00:19:24,893
and as such is motivated by revenge.

362
00:19:24,895 --> 00:19:26,561
None of the children's parents, however,

363
00:19:26,563 --> 00:19:29,531
are in professions that typically
evoke revenge-based anger...

364
00:19:29,533 --> 00:19:31,667
Doctors, judges, lawyers.

365
00:19:31,669 --> 00:19:33,035
We believe the unsub is

366
00:19:33,037 --> 00:19:35,103
in his mid-30s
to mid-40s.

367
00:19:35,105 --> 00:19:38,040
He's thorough, intelligent,
and calculating.

368
00:19:38,042 --> 00:19:40,409
He may have also suffered
the loss of a child recently.

369
00:19:40,411 --> 00:19:42,878
That could be what's triggered
these current abductions.

370
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:44,913
Now, whether this was a literal death,

371
00:19:44,915 --> 00:19:48,784
a physical separation, or purely
a symbolic loss isn't clear.

372
00:19:48,786 --> 00:19:50,252
The children are apparently responding

373
00:19:50,254 --> 00:19:53,388
to a form of post-hypnotic suggestion.

374
00:19:53,390 --> 00:19:55,023
He's also technological savvy

375
00:19:55,025 --> 00:19:56,825
and capable of bonding with children.

376
00:19:56,827 --> 00:19:58,827
In fact, his cyber expertise may be

377
00:19:58,829 --> 00:20:00,162
his entrée into their world.

378
00:20:00,164 --> 00:20:01,563
And this person is
known to your children,

379
00:20:01,565 --> 00:20:03,598
and he might even be known to you.

380
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,168
He is a local and not a transient,

381
00:20:06,170 --> 00:20:08,303
which will make identifying
him even more difficult.

382
00:20:08,305 --> 00:20:10,605
Hyper-vigilance is key.

383
00:20:10,607 --> 00:20:13,408
It's not enough to lock
the doors and the windows.

384
00:20:13,410 --> 00:20:15,777
Adults cannot take their
eyes off of children,

385
00:20:15,779 --> 00:20:16,878
not even for a minute.

386
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,047
Even if you think your kids

387
00:20:19,049 --> 00:20:20,916
are secure and protected,

388
00:20:20,918 --> 00:20:23,218
this unsub has demonstrated
to us that they are not.

389
00:20:23,220 --> 00:20:24,721
Thank you.

390
00:20:43,707 --> 00:20:46,742
Ahem.

391
00:20:46,744 --> 00:20:48,577
- Good.
- Mm-hmm.

392
00:20:48,579 --> 00:20:49,644
Mm-hmm.

393
00:20:49,646 --> 00:20:52,214
So, um, I got a call

394
00:20:52,216 --> 00:20:54,649
from your insurance adjustor.

395
00:20:54,651 --> 00:20:56,051
Mm-hmm.

396
00:20:56,053 --> 00:20:58,453
He was calling to confirm

397
00:20:58,455 --> 00:21:01,123
that you had declined a benefit.

398
00:21:01,125 --> 00:21:04,793
Your policy provides a
generous rental allowance

399
00:21:04,795 --> 00:21:06,928
if you're displaced from your home.

400
00:21:09,933 --> 00:21:11,099
So now you know.

401
00:21:11,101 --> 00:21:14,803
Mom, why would you make up that story

402
00:21:14,805 --> 00:21:16,738
that you had no other options?

403
00:21:16,740 --> 00:21:19,674
Because I wanted to spend time with you,

404
00:21:19,676 --> 00:21:23,078
and I was afraid if I
asked, you would tell me no.

405
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:24,546
Why would I do that?

406
00:21:24,548 --> 00:21:25,947
Oh, come on, JJ.

407
00:21:25,949 --> 00:21:28,650
You are perfectly happy up here

408
00:21:28,652 --> 00:21:31,052
with your life just as it is.

409
00:21:31,054 --> 00:21:33,288
The same way you are perfectly happy

410
00:21:33,290 --> 00:21:36,558
with your life in East Allegheny,
right? It does not mean that...

411
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,193
Oh, you think I'm happy?

412
00:21:38,195 --> 00:21:39,394
You think I'm happy

413
00:21:39,396 --> 00:21:42,164
in that house all alone,

414
00:21:42,166 --> 00:21:45,167
your dad off with his new wife,

415
00:21:45,169 --> 00:21:48,437
one daughter who never saw 17,

416
00:21:48,439 --> 00:21:50,305
and the other...

417
00:21:52,609 --> 00:21:55,977
The other what, Mom?

418
00:21:55,979 --> 00:21:57,813
The other what?

419
00:21:57,815 --> 00:21:59,514
Who left.

420
00:21:59,516 --> 00:22:02,417
Who went away and stayed away.

421
00:22:02,419 --> 00:22:04,319
I came back.

422
00:22:04,321 --> 00:22:06,054
Yeah, after 20 years.

423
00:22:06,056 --> 00:22:08,557
Can you blame me? Look,

424
00:22:08,559 --> 00:22:11,359
the terrible memories,
what happened to Roz,

425
00:22:11,361 --> 00:22:13,462
they're...

426
00:22:13,464 --> 00:22:15,497
It's all there...

427
00:22:15,499 --> 00:22:17,699
In that place.

428
00:22:17,701 --> 00:22:19,901
Well, I'm there, too, remember?

429
00:22:23,273 --> 00:22:26,708
Well, we're checking every
industrial space in the area.

430
00:22:26,710 --> 00:22:28,376
So far nothing.

431
00:22:28,378 --> 00:22:30,579
Look at this photo from
Katie Linz's bedroom.

432
00:22:30,581 --> 00:22:32,914
She was making something
out of papier-mache,

433
00:22:32,916 --> 00:22:35,350
just like Joey Pryor.

434
00:22:35,352 --> 00:22:36,818
School project, maybe.

435
00:22:36,820 --> 00:22:39,521
No, no, Katie was homeschooled.

436
00:22:39,523 --> 00:22:40,755
I'll have Garcia look into it.

437
00:22:40,757 --> 00:22:42,791
Yeah.

438
00:22:46,597 --> 00:22:48,430
Well, the sun's going down.

439
00:22:48,432 --> 00:22:51,700
Every last patrol officer's
walking the streets.

440
00:22:51,702 --> 00:22:54,236
This little town's
turned into a fortress.

441
00:22:54,238 --> 00:22:57,172
Think the unsub will be discouraged?

442
00:22:57,174 --> 00:22:59,441
Yeah, me, neither.

443
00:23:01,311 --> 00:23:04,212
Well, how much longer will you be?

444
00:23:04,214 --> 00:23:07,382
No, no. I'm just making up a spare bed.

445
00:23:07,384 --> 00:23:08,917
Timmy's sleeping in our room tonight,

446
00:23:08,919 --> 00:23:11,086
whether he likes it or not.

447
00:23:11,088 --> 00:23:13,788
Mom, why can't I watch TV?

448
00:23:13,790 --> 00:23:16,658
Listen, I need to get started on dinner.

449
00:23:16,660 --> 00:23:18,760
Love you, too.

450
00:23:27,871 --> 00:23:29,771
Somebody's at the door.

451
00:23:51,895 --> 00:23:54,229
What are you doing here?

452
00:23:58,235 --> 00:24:00,535
What's going on?

453
00:24:00,537 --> 00:24:02,637
There's a disturbance
at the mayor's house.

454
00:24:02,639 --> 00:24:05,006
A neighbor said she
heard a child scream.

455
00:24:31,034 --> 00:24:33,468
Call an ambulance.

456
00:24:38,809 --> 00:24:40,709
It's ok. Help is on the way.

457
00:24:44,514 --> 00:24:47,782
Ambulance is almost here.

458
00:24:47,784 --> 00:24:50,452
It's too late.

459
00:24:50,454 --> 00:24:52,287
She's already dead.

460
00:25:04,377 --> 00:25:05,991
What the hell happened here?

461
00:25:06,335 --> 00:25:09,603
Mrs. Tremaine's skull was
crushed, and the boy's missing.

462
00:25:09,605 --> 00:25:10,937
That's a big change in M.O.,

463
00:25:10,939 --> 00:25:13,140
but this had to have been our unsub.

464
00:25:13,142 --> 00:25:14,941
Judging by the volume of blood,

465
00:25:14,943 --> 00:25:17,077
she was most likely attacked
here and left for dead.

466
00:25:17,079 --> 00:25:19,146
But I thought Mrs. Tremaine

467
00:25:19,148 --> 00:25:20,780
was in the kitchen fixing dinner.

468
00:25:20,782 --> 00:25:23,383
That was after the attack.

469
00:25:23,385 --> 00:25:25,385
Come again.

470
00:25:25,387 --> 00:25:27,387
Her neocortex was destroyed,

471
00:25:27,389 --> 00:25:30,023
but her paleocortex must
have remained intact.

472
00:25:30,025 --> 00:25:31,691
It's the more primitive
part of the brain

473
00:25:31,693 --> 00:25:33,860
that guides instinct
and habitual action.

474
00:25:33,862 --> 00:25:37,731
Like when it's dinnertime,
you go fix dinner.

475
00:25:37,733 --> 00:25:42,035
Ok. Well, that's a sharp
escalation of violence.

476
00:25:42,037 --> 00:25:45,705
And the unsub didn't try to lure
Timmy out like he did the others.

477
00:25:45,707 --> 00:25:47,040
Or he tried and failed.

478
00:25:47,042 --> 00:25:48,208
Mayor, you can't go in...

479
00:25:48,210 --> 00:25:50,577
It's my house. Let me in.

480
00:25:50,579 --> 00:25:52,512
They said, uh...

481
00:26:01,924 --> 00:26:03,623
Joan is dead.

482
00:26:03,625 --> 00:26:05,091
Mayor...

483
00:26:06,628 --> 00:26:08,595
Where's my boy?

484
00:26:15,237 --> 00:26:16,603
He's gone, isn't he?

485
00:26:16,605 --> 00:26:19,039
We're gonna find your son.

486
00:26:19,041 --> 00:26:20,607
You have my word on that.

487
00:26:20,609 --> 00:26:23,476
Mayor Tremaine, I know it's difficult

488
00:26:23,478 --> 00:26:25,011
to think clearly right now,

489
00:26:25,013 --> 00:26:27,480
but it's incredibly
important that we know

490
00:26:27,482 --> 00:26:29,516
if Timmy had a cell phone or a computer.

491
00:26:29,518 --> 00:26:31,518
Yeah.

492
00:26:32,888 --> 00:26:35,088
It's upstairs in my office.

493
00:26:35,090 --> 00:26:36,223
It's in your office?

494
00:26:36,225 --> 00:26:37,457
Timmy didn't do his chores,

495
00:26:37,459 --> 00:26:40,694
so we took it away for a few days.

496
00:26:40,696 --> 00:26:41,895
Ok.

497
00:26:41,897 --> 00:26:43,530
Let's get you out of here.

498
00:26:43,532 --> 00:26:46,233
Ok? Come on.

499
00:26:50,439 --> 00:26:52,205
Well, that explains it.

500
00:26:52,207 --> 00:26:53,773
The kids are being
lured via the Internet,

501
00:26:53,775 --> 00:26:55,342
but Timmy was offline.

502
00:26:55,344 --> 00:26:59,980
So the unsub got an ax
and went back to basics.

503
00:26:59,982 --> 00:27:03,049
So the wife and the son of the mayor.

504
00:27:03,051 --> 00:27:04,517
That can't be a coincidence.

505
00:27:04,519 --> 00:27:06,553
Yeah, and the packet was
sent to the town newspaper.

506
00:27:06,555 --> 00:27:07,854
I mean, this unsub's
anger isn't directed

507
00:27:07,856 --> 00:27:09,656
at any specific parents.

508
00:27:09,658 --> 00:27:11,791
He's got a grudge against
the town as a whole.

509
00:27:11,793 --> 00:27:13,827
Garcia, what have you got?

510
00:27:13,829 --> 00:27:16,496
It turns out that Joey
Pryor and Katie Linz

511
00:27:16,498 --> 00:27:18,865
took a papier-mache
class together as part

512
00:27:18,867 --> 00:27:20,400
of this summer activities program

513
00:27:20,402 --> 00:27:22,435
located at the county fairgrounds.

514
00:27:22,437 --> 00:27:24,271
Now, I know what you're
thinking, and before you ask...

515
00:27:24,273 --> 00:27:26,840
I'm sorry... the instructor
was a retired nurse

516
00:27:26,842 --> 00:27:28,441
in her seventies.

517
00:27:28,443 --> 00:27:29,843
That's about as
un-unsubby as they come.

518
00:27:29,845 --> 00:27:31,645
Were the other kids enrolled?

519
00:27:31,647 --> 00:27:33,146
Not in that class,

520
00:27:33,148 --> 00:27:34,614
but in that activities program, yes.

521
00:27:34,616 --> 00:27:37,550
Let's see. Aiden Lyson was
taking a woodworking course.

522
00:27:37,552 --> 00:27:40,220
Olivia Woolsey went the 4-H
Route, learning about chickens.

523
00:27:40,222 --> 00:27:42,055
Ok, so the unsub cherry picked the kids

524
00:27:42,057 --> 00:27:43,490
from the other classes.

525
00:27:43,492 --> 00:27:45,492
I think we just found
our guy's hunting grounds.

526
00:27:45,494 --> 00:27:46,993
But I've gone through
all the instructors,

527
00:27:46,995 --> 00:27:48,895
and nobody matches the unsub's profile.

528
00:27:48,897 --> 00:27:51,998
Ok, what about parents
or fairground employees?

529
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,433
No, nobody. And the thing is,

530
00:27:53,435 --> 00:27:54,901
that place is open to the public.

531
00:27:54,903 --> 00:27:56,303
Tons of people go in and out,

532
00:27:56,305 --> 00:27:59,005
it could be practically anybody in town.

533
00:28:01,810 --> 00:28:05,145
We found these encrypted
emails in Timmy's inbox.

534
00:28:05,147 --> 00:28:06,713
The date of the first one

535
00:28:06,715 --> 00:28:08,581
is the night the 3 children vanished.

536
00:28:08,583 --> 00:28:13,653
So Timmy was meant to be part
of the first group of abductions.

537
00:28:23,065 --> 00:28:24,464
This is an ASMR video...

538
00:28:24,466 --> 00:28:26,533
Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response.

539
00:28:26,535 --> 00:28:28,134
It's a tactile sensory
stimulation that can

540
00:28:28,136 --> 00:28:30,970
evoke low-grade euphoria, particularly
in children and young adults.

541
00:28:30,972 --> 00:28:32,472
I've never heard of it.

542
00:28:32,474 --> 00:28:34,641
Euphoria. So that must be the drug

543
00:28:34,643 --> 00:28:36,810
that our unsub was using to induce

544
00:28:36,812 --> 00:28:39,312
a suggestible state to
the kids he abducted.

545
00:28:42,884 --> 00:28:44,217
Uh, what just happened?

546
00:28:44,219 --> 00:28:45,685
I was afraid of this.

547
00:28:45,687 --> 00:28:48,321
The emails are programmed to
self-delete after being viewed.

548
00:28:48,323 --> 00:28:49,589
That's why we didn't find
anything on the other computers.

549
00:28:49,591 --> 00:28:52,859
Ok, he sent 4 more identical emails,

550
00:28:52,861 --> 00:28:55,128
so we'll just film the next video

551
00:28:55,130 --> 00:28:56,496
and have a record of it.

552
00:28:56,498 --> 00:28:58,098
To do this, the technical
level of expertise

553
00:28:58,100 --> 00:28:59,499
would have to be off the charts.

554
00:28:59,501 --> 00:29:01,067
I'm talking Penelope Garcia level.

555
00:29:01,069 --> 00:29:02,802
Well, that narrows the suspect pool.

556
00:29:02,804 --> 00:29:03,937
That's good, right?

557
00:29:03,939 --> 00:29:05,338
Yeah, but it also means our unsub is

558
00:29:05,340 --> 00:29:07,006
a lot more formidable than we thought,

559
00:29:07,008 --> 00:29:10,076
and that's bad.

560
00:29:36,571 --> 00:29:38,972
Euphoria ain't what it used to be.

561
00:29:38,974 --> 00:29:42,075
Ok. Well, let's walk through it.

562
00:29:42,077 --> 00:29:44,844
The kids crawl into
bed, they go to sleep.

563
00:29:44,846 --> 00:29:46,813
Ping, they get an email.

564
00:29:46,815 --> 00:29:48,782
They open it, watch the video,

565
00:29:48,784 --> 00:29:51,317
go wandering out into the
night to be taken by a stranger.

566
00:29:51,319 --> 00:29:52,819
That feels like a stretch.

567
00:29:52,821 --> 00:29:54,921
Yeah, I agree. Sandpaper, whispering.

568
00:29:54,923 --> 00:29:56,589
It's just not enough
to induce the behavior

569
00:29:56,591 --> 00:29:58,091
we saw on that surveillance tape.

570
00:29:58,093 --> 00:30:01,227
So something must be added to the mix...

571
00:30:01,229 --> 00:30:03,129
Subliminal messaging, maybe.

572
00:30:03,131 --> 00:30:05,265
You mean, the old "eat popcorn" thing,

573
00:30:05,267 --> 00:30:06,966
because that turned out to be a hoax.

574
00:30:06,968 --> 00:30:08,902
Well, they weren't all hoaxes.

575
00:30:08,904 --> 00:30:11,871
It's a serious enough phenomenon
that subliminal advertising's

576
00:30:11,873 --> 00:30:13,306
been banned in the U.K.

577
00:30:13,308 --> 00:30:15,575
That might explain the papier-mache.

578
00:30:15,577 --> 00:30:16,943
It's a tactile, immersive activity

579
00:30:18,180 --> 00:30:19,512
Like finger-painting or
working a Potter's wheel.

580
00:30:19,514 --> 00:30:21,347
Give us something good, Garcia.

581
00:30:21,349 --> 00:30:24,417
Ok, I went through the ASMR video

582
00:30:24,419 --> 00:30:27,153
for sub-visual clues. Nada.

583
00:30:27,155 --> 00:30:29,989
Then I looked for sub-audio clues,

584
00:30:29,991 --> 00:30:31,624
and I found this running throughout.

585
00:30:35,197 --> 00:30:38,832
That's like the back and
forth of a playground swing.

586
00:30:38,834 --> 00:30:41,067
It might be the unsub's
subliminal message

587
00:30:41,069 --> 00:30:42,869
to the kids on where to go.

588
00:30:42,871 --> 00:30:44,103
And at no additional cost

589
00:30:44,105 --> 00:30:45,672
to the American taxpayer,

590
00:30:45,674 --> 00:30:47,307
I scanned for back masking,

591
00:30:47,309 --> 00:30:49,476
which is messages played backwards

592
00:30:49,478 --> 00:30:51,678
or under other audio
tracks, you know like,

593
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:52,879
"I buried Paul."

594
00:30:52,881 --> 00:30:55,248
And I found this.

595
00:30:55,250 --> 00:30:59,586
Hamelin. Hamelin.

596
00:30:59,588 --> 00:31:01,754
Hamelin.

597
00:31:01,756 --> 00:31:05,124
Is that Hamelin?

598
00:31:05,126 --> 00:31:06,693
Of "Pied Piper" fame.

599
00:31:06,695 --> 00:31:09,295
He played a flute and
lured the town's children

600
00:31:09,297 --> 00:31:10,897
from their homes.

601
00:31:10,899 --> 00:31:13,833
The unsub must see himself as
a 21st-century version of that,

602
00:31:13,835 --> 00:31:16,336
except he traded in
the flute for a laptop.

603
00:31:16,338 --> 00:31:17,670
Guys, I think I blocked it out

604
00:31:17,672 --> 00:31:19,305
and I'm not sure I want
to unblock it back in,

605
00:31:19,307 --> 00:31:21,508
but what eventually happened
to the kids from Hamelin?

606
00:31:21,510 --> 00:31:24,811
They were all led to a
riverbank and drowned.

607
00:31:30,986 --> 00:31:33,553
He had these kids right
where he wanted them.

608
00:31:33,555 --> 00:31:36,289
ASMR, susceptibility
to tactile stimulation,

609
00:31:36,291 --> 00:31:37,590
subliminal messaging,

610
00:31:37,592 --> 00:31:39,292
plus, they're at the most vulnerable age

611
00:31:39,294 --> 00:31:40,894
for psychological manipulation.

612
00:31:40,896 --> 00:31:42,462
A perfect storm. What have you got?

613
00:31:42,464 --> 00:31:44,797
Employment records for the
summer activities program.

614
00:31:44,799 --> 00:31:47,166
The first set of payroll
checks were issued on June 15th,

615
00:31:47,168 --> 00:31:48,635
except for one.

616
00:31:48,637 --> 00:31:51,070
The computer teacher didn't
get hers until July 8th.

617
00:31:51,072 --> 00:31:53,306
I looked back, discovered
that the original teacher,

618
00:31:53,308 --> 00:31:55,775
Wayne Hollis, was fired
after only 3 weeks on the job

619
00:31:55,777 --> 00:31:57,810
for suspected inappropriate
behavior with the students.

620
00:31:57,812 --> 00:32:00,947
I think that thud we just heard
is a dart hitting a bull's-eye.

621
00:32:00,949 --> 00:32:02,749
What kind of inappropriate behavior?

622
00:32:02,751 --> 00:32:05,118
Undetermined and maybe nonexistent.

623
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:08,054
Apparently, he would meet
with children after school

624
00:32:08,056 --> 00:32:10,256
to teach them things, sometimes
at the park or in the mall.

625
00:32:10,258 --> 00:32:12,659
Anyway, the parents found
out, they started talking,

626
00:32:12,661 --> 00:32:14,527
things snowballed, and people wondered

627
00:32:14,529 --> 00:32:15,895
if he was molesting them.

628
00:32:15,897 --> 00:32:17,830
So once the gossip machine revved up,

629
00:32:17,832 --> 00:32:19,232
it didn't slow down.

630
00:32:19,234 --> 00:32:20,567
I bet you the parents of some
of these abducted children

631
00:32:20,569 --> 00:32:22,101
were right in the
middle, stirring the pot.

632
00:32:22,103 --> 00:32:23,469
Does Hollis have a regular job?

633
00:32:23,471 --> 00:32:24,871
He does. He's a research consultant

634
00:32:24,873 --> 00:32:26,139
at a hi-tech firm in Des Moines.

635
00:32:26,141 --> 00:32:27,240
He's also a single father

636
00:32:27,242 --> 00:32:28,541
to a 15-year-old
son named Garrett.

637
00:32:28,543 --> 00:32:29,809
Garcia has the address.

638
00:32:29,811 --> 00:32:30,843
I'll send Luke and Dave.

639
00:32:54,135 --> 00:32:56,369
Hollis' utility bill hasn't
been paid in two months,

640
00:32:56,371 --> 00:32:58,738
and the teenager, Garrett,
hasn't been to class in 3 weeks.

641
00:32:58,740 --> 00:33:00,907
Father and son just packed up and left?

642
00:33:00,909 --> 00:33:02,375
Maybe. Garrett was ridiculed at school

643
00:33:02,377 --> 00:33:04,444
for the molestation rumors
surrounding his father.

644
00:33:04,446 --> 00:33:06,245
The advisor said he was
worried about the kid

645
00:33:06,247 --> 00:33:08,948
that he was spiraling down.

646
00:33:13,555 --> 00:33:17,023
Ohh, what a cute baby.

647
00:33:17,025 --> 00:33:18,625
Thank you.

648
00:33:18,627 --> 00:33:22,128
How old is he? Or is it a she?

649
00:33:22,130 --> 00:33:24,764
He's a little boy, and
he's almost 8 months old.

650
00:33:24,766 --> 00:33:29,335
It's hard to believe that
people were ever so innocent,

651
00:33:29,337 --> 00:33:31,137
so pure

652
00:33:31,139 --> 00:33:34,173
and untainted.

653
00:33:35,543 --> 00:33:37,610
Why do you hurt him?

654
00:33:37,612 --> 00:33:38,611
Pardon me?

655
00:33:38,613 --> 00:33:40,146
Why hurt your boy?

656
00:33:40,148 --> 00:33:41,848
Why do such terrible,

657
00:33:41,850 --> 00:33:45,818
unthinkable things to him?

658
00:33:45,820 --> 00:33:48,054
Because that's what I heard

659
00:33:48,056 --> 00:33:52,291
from your neighbors, your friends,

660
00:33:52,293 --> 00:33:54,794
the people you thought you could trust,

661
00:33:54,796 --> 00:33:58,831
the same way all of you talked about me.

662
00:33:58,833 --> 00:34:00,233
Leave me alone.

663
00:34:01,536 --> 00:34:02,769
Stay put.

664
00:34:02,771 --> 00:34:04,637
Do not move. Stop!

665
00:34:06,041 --> 00:34:07,607
Any of you move, I kill her.

666
00:34:07,609 --> 00:34:08,908
Please don't hurt me!

667
00:34:08,910 --> 00:34:09,876
Do not move a step!

668
00:34:09,878 --> 00:34:11,444
So the Hollis house was empty?

669
00:34:11,446 --> 00:34:13,613
Yeah, except for a chair
that was knocked over

670
00:34:13,615 --> 00:34:15,081
in the middle of the living room.

671
00:34:15,083 --> 00:34:16,482
Like there'd been a struggle?

672
00:34:16,484 --> 00:34:17,850
That's what we thought,

673
00:34:17,852 --> 00:34:19,952
and then looked up at the ceiling.

674
00:34:19,954 --> 00:34:22,689
It was hung over a roof beam.

675
00:34:22,691 --> 00:34:25,058
Matt said that Hollis'
son Garrett had been teased

676
00:34:25,060 --> 00:34:28,327
and tormented in school over
rumors surrounding his father.

677
00:34:28,329 --> 00:34:29,662
Garrett must have hung himself.

678
00:34:29,664 --> 00:34:31,264
His father found him and cut him down.

679
00:34:31,266 --> 00:34:32,498
And buried him.

680
00:34:32,500 --> 00:34:34,033
There was freshly turned
dirt in the backyard.

681
00:34:34,035 --> 00:34:35,401
It's being excavated as we speak.

682
00:34:35,403 --> 00:34:37,970
We have a hostage
situation in Legacy Park.

683
00:34:37,972 --> 00:34:40,006
Tara and Matt are in the area.

684
00:34:47,115 --> 00:34:49,549
I'm serious. Don't move, people!

685
00:34:49,551 --> 00:34:52,885
Do not move! Run away, I kill her.

686
00:34:52,887 --> 00:34:55,288
Wayne Hollis, FBI.

687
00:34:55,290 --> 00:34:57,390
Let her go. Drop the weapon.

688
00:34:57,392 --> 00:34:58,524
No, no, no, no.

689
00:34:58,526 --> 00:35:01,094
Everybody in this town talks except me.

690
00:35:01,096 --> 00:35:04,630
Gossip, rumor, innuendo.

691
00:35:04,632 --> 00:35:07,433
You think I hurt your children,

692
00:35:07,435 --> 00:35:09,836
but I didn't.

693
00:35:09,838 --> 00:35:11,804
It was a lie.

694
00:35:11,806 --> 00:35:14,440
We know about your son, Wayne.

695
00:35:14,442 --> 00:35:16,109
Think about Garrett.

696
00:35:16,111 --> 00:35:18,144
This is not how he'd want you to react.

697
00:35:18,146 --> 00:35:20,079
It doesn't matter what
Garrett wants or doesn't want.

698
00:35:20,081 --> 00:35:21,314
He's dead,

699
00:35:21,316 --> 00:35:23,549
because of you,

700
00:35:23,551 --> 00:35:25,184
all of you.

701
00:35:25,186 --> 00:35:27,987
He had hopes and dreams,

702
00:35:27,989 --> 00:35:31,257
and you took it all away with your lies.

703
00:35:31,259 --> 00:35:32,992
Lies!

704
00:35:32,994 --> 00:35:37,597
Well, now I'm taking
something away from you.

705
00:35:37,599 --> 00:35:40,633
By the time you find your children,

706
00:35:40,635 --> 00:35:43,269
it'll be too late.

707
00:35:43,271 --> 00:35:45,304
And that will haunt you

708
00:35:45,306 --> 00:35:48,474
for the rest of your lives.

709
00:35:49,878 --> 00:35:51,444
No!

710
00:35:56,844 --> 00:35:57,716
No wallet.

711
00:35:57,717 --> 00:35:59,482
Pockets are empty.

712
00:36:00,533 --> 00:36:01,889
What is it?

713
00:36:01,890 --> 00:36:05,524
Well, I don't know.

714
00:36:05,526 --> 00:36:07,927
It's unlike any mud I've ever seen.

715
00:36:07,929 --> 00:36:09,829
Let's get a rush analysis on that.

716
00:36:15,937 --> 00:36:18,137
Here you go, Agent.

717
00:36:18,139 --> 00:36:19,872
Thank you.

718
00:36:19,874 --> 00:36:21,540
Lab results on the mud.

719
00:36:21,542 --> 00:36:24,477
- And?
- Sample contains large amounts of proteases.

720
00:36:24,479 --> 00:36:26,045
- And?
- Proteolytic enzymes.

721
00:36:26,047 --> 00:36:27,713
They break down the peptide bonds

722
00:36:27,715 --> 00:36:29,415
between amino acids
found in complex proteins.

723
00:36:29,417 --> 00:36:31,150
It's commonly found in meat tenderizers.

724
00:36:31,152 --> 00:36:32,752
Garcia.

725
00:36:32,754 --> 00:36:34,120
Uh...

726
00:36:34,122 --> 00:36:35,955
Got it. Great plains meat tenderizer.

727
00:36:35,957 --> 00:36:38,758
The company was based
out of Wesser, Iowa,

728
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,293
until it went out of
business 20 years ago.

729
00:36:40,295 --> 00:36:42,295
I'm sending the address now.

730
00:36:56,110 --> 00:36:58,010
Anybody in there?

731
00:36:58,012 --> 00:36:59,779
Aiden, Olivia, Joey.

732
00:36:59,781 --> 00:37:01,447
Now, this unit's locked up tight.

733
00:37:01,449 --> 00:37:03,282
Kids, we're the police.

734
00:37:03,284 --> 00:37:04,717
You're ok now.

735
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:05,885
There's gonna be a loud noise.

736
00:37:05,887 --> 00:37:07,586
We need to knock the lock off the door.

737
00:37:07,588 --> 00:37:09,588
All right. Watch out.

738
00:37:16,431 --> 00:37:18,431
Hey. Look at me.

739
00:37:18,433 --> 00:37:20,333
We're here to help you.

740
00:37:20,335 --> 00:37:22,768
Hey, Joey, we got you. Come on.

741
00:37:22,770 --> 00:37:24,570
All right.

742
00:37:50,256 --> 00:37:53,290
No chance I can change your mind?

743
00:37:53,292 --> 00:37:55,058
Mm. No, sweetheart.

744
00:37:55,060 --> 00:37:56,760
I need to go home.

745
00:37:56,762 --> 00:37:59,062
I really wish you'd stay.

746
00:38:00,899 --> 00:38:04,101
You ever project
yourself into the future?

747
00:38:04,103 --> 00:38:06,637
How do you mean?

748
00:38:06,639 --> 00:38:09,273
Imagine what your life's gonna look like

749
00:38:09,275 --> 00:38:11,842
down the road, but really see it,

750
00:38:11,844 --> 00:38:15,879
like it's a movie and you're
sitting in the theater watching.

751
00:38:15,881 --> 00:38:19,116
I guess I've always just been

752
00:38:19,118 --> 00:38:21,652
too wrapped up in the craziness of now.

753
00:38:21,654 --> 00:38:23,453
Yeah.

754
00:38:23,455 --> 00:38:25,956
When I was younger,

755
00:38:25,958 --> 00:38:30,193
I played this movie in
my head all the time.

756
00:38:30,195 --> 00:38:34,231
You and Roz all grown.

757
00:38:34,233 --> 00:38:37,868
Your dad and I in a
house out in the country,

758
00:38:37,870 --> 00:38:40,904
grandkids running all around,

759
00:38:40,906 --> 00:38:43,707
food cooking in the kitchen.

760
00:38:44,910 --> 00:38:46,743
That sounds nice.

761
00:38:46,745 --> 00:38:51,982
Yeah. Except it was all make-believe.

762
00:38:51,984 --> 00:38:54,785
After Roz died, I
threw that stupid movie

763
00:38:54,787 --> 00:38:57,821
in the trash for good.

764
00:38:57,823 --> 00:39:00,290
I blamed your father.

765
00:39:00,292 --> 00:39:02,259
I blamed myself.

766
00:39:02,261 --> 00:39:06,596
I blamed the whole damn world.

767
00:39:06,598 --> 00:39:09,399
I got so caught up in all my troubles

768
00:39:09,401 --> 00:39:13,370
that I forgot there was another
little girl under my roof

769
00:39:13,372 --> 00:39:17,541
who had just lost her sister.

770
00:39:17,543 --> 00:39:20,510
You needed me, and I wasn't there.

771
00:39:25,317 --> 00:39:26,917
You did the best you could.

772
00:39:26,919 --> 00:39:30,187
No. No, I did not do my best,

773
00:39:30,189 --> 00:39:32,222
and I realize that now,

774
00:39:32,224 --> 00:39:35,425
and I am truly sorry.

775
00:39:35,427 --> 00:39:36,993
Mom.

776
00:39:38,564 --> 00:39:41,331
Now we know the truth about Roz.

777
00:39:41,333 --> 00:39:44,067
Yes. Thanks to you.

778
00:39:44,069 --> 00:39:48,038
I'm proud of you.

779
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,774
I don't think I've ever told you that.

780
00:39:52,144 --> 00:39:53,810
Every morning you get up

781
00:39:53,812 --> 00:39:55,679
and you go to work, and you make

782
00:39:55,681 --> 00:39:57,481
a difference in people's lives.

783
00:39:57,483 --> 00:40:02,152
You look in those folders so
the rest of us don't have to.

784
00:40:04,356 --> 00:40:06,690
Thanks, Mom.

785
00:40:06,692 --> 00:40:10,460
That means more than you'll ever know.

786
00:40:13,866 --> 00:40:14,931
This way.

787
00:40:14,933 --> 00:40:17,200
Over here. Right here.

788
00:40:20,105 --> 00:40:24,975
Dad, it's ok. I'm ok.

789
00:40:33,952 --> 00:40:35,752
A lot of wounds to heal,

790
00:40:35,754 --> 00:40:37,854
but it's started.

791
00:40:37,856 --> 00:40:39,890
I missed you guys!

792
00:40:44,930 --> 00:40:46,296
Let's head home.

793
00:40:49,802 --> 00:40:51,868
"It isn't what they say about you",

794
00:40:51,870 --> 00:40:53,403
it's what they whisper."

795
00:40:53,405 --> 00:40:55,071
Errol Flynn.

796
00:40:55,073 --> 00:40:56,640
I'm so happy to hear that.

797
00:40:56,642 --> 00:40:58,008
And where's your mom now?

798
00:40:58,010 --> 00:40:59,943
Oh, she's saying good-bye to Garcia.

799
00:40:59,945 --> 00:41:03,346
She wants me to drive her
back to Pennsylvania tonight.

800
00:41:03,348 --> 00:41:04,781
Well, give her my love.

801
00:41:04,783 --> 00:41:07,050
Yeah, I will.

802
00:41:07,052 --> 00:41:10,253
Uh, Spence, have you...

803
00:41:10,255 --> 00:41:12,956
Have you ever projected yourself

804
00:41:12,958 --> 00:41:15,425
into an imagined future?

805
00:41:15,427 --> 00:41:17,427
You know, given that
particles can travel

806
00:41:17,429 --> 00:41:19,029
faster than the speed of light,

807
00:41:19,031 --> 00:41:21,164
it's always kind of felt
like pointless speculation.

808
00:41:21,166 --> 00:41:24,334
You'd have to, obviously,
solve that first.

809
00:41:24,336 --> 00:41:26,470
Mm. Yeah, yeah. You're right.

810
00:41:26,472 --> 00:41:28,805
We would definitely
have to solve that first.

811
00:41:28,807 --> 00:41:31,308
But to answer your question,

812
00:41:31,310 --> 00:41:34,911
yes, I actually have 3
or 4 imagined futures.

813
00:41:34,913 --> 00:41:36,480
Really?

814
00:41:36,482 --> 00:41:37,647
You sound surprised.

815
00:41:37,649 --> 00:41:41,518
I am.

816
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:43,854
Tell me about it someday.

817
00:41:43,856 --> 00:41:45,222
It's a date.

818
00:41:45,224 --> 00:41:47,324
Ok.

819
00:41:50,028 --> 00:41:53,396
So I have a proposal.

820
00:41:53,398 --> 00:41:57,300
Let's postpone East Allegheny for a day,

821
00:41:57,302 --> 00:42:00,670
and we take that drive
to Ocean City tomorrow.

822
00:42:00,672 --> 00:42:02,672
You sure?

823
00:42:02,674 --> 00:42:04,274
Yeah. Why not?

824
00:42:04,276 --> 00:42:06,142
Let's do it.

825
00:42:06,144 --> 00:42:09,179
All right.

826
00:42:09,181 --> 00:42:11,815
Do you think that seafood
restaurant's still there?

827
00:42:11,817 --> 00:42:14,351
Oh, yeah, we could check.

828
00:42:14,353 --> 00:42:17,187
I think I've helped
save enough lives today.

829
00:42:17,189 --> 00:42:20,023
I want a lobster do-over.

830
