[Gulls squawking]

[♪♪]

[Doors squeak open]

[♪♪]

Amber, come on.

You're going to be
late for school.

Is my outfit okay?

Jordan says pink on pink
doesn't work.

Do you like it?

Yeah.

Whatever works for you
is all that matters.



Go get in the car.
I'm driving you today.

Dad's already left for work.

[♪♪]

Aw, man! Another tardy slip.

Hey!

Bonnie's gonna pick you up after
school today.

I have something
I have to do.

Okay.

Hey, hey!

I love you.

Love you.

[♪♪]

[Radio reporter]:
The mastermind of the escape

is reported to be



the infamous serial killer
Jeffrey calgrove.

Convicted for the murder
of one woman,

and suspected
in four other homicides,

calgrove tortured
and strangled his victims,

leaving
the marine whip line

tied in a bow
around their neck.

Five women,

each in the wrong place
at the wrong time,

their bodies each found
in city dumpsters,

except for Savannah white,

the high-priced
call girl-turned-madame

with purported
powerful connections.

Calgrove maintained
his innocence

in the killing of white,
although he never

publicly commented on
his alleged involvement

in the other four murders.

Congratulations, you two,

on another
successful conviction.

Life without parole.

That psycho's off the streets
for good.

Well, we nailed him
for Savannah white,

but I would've loved to prove

calgrove
was the "whip line strangler."

Those other four women
deserve their day in court, too.

Stop beating yourself up
over it.

We got him
and he's never getting out.

If only I'd caught him
at the scene.

Then he couldn't play
the "innocent" card

and we would have
gotten a confession.

Is there any evidence to tie him
to the four previous murders

with the same m.O.?

No. This one was sloppier
than the others.

He never got a chance
to finish the job.

He heard Jackie coming
and beat a retreat.

Just be glad
for that anonymous tip

that led you to the coins

with calgrove's fingerprints
on them.

That's right. Without that,
he'd still be out there.

She done good.

You done good.

[Buttons beeping]

[Cell rings]

Sam baxford.

Sam?

It's Jackie.

Calling to say hello?

Don't play
with me, Sam.

It's all over
the news.

We're on top of it.

I need more.
I need details.

Last I remember,

you're no longer privy to
internal investigations.

You gave up that right
when you turned in your badge.

Come on, Sam!

Calgrove was our case.

He went to jail two years ago,

and nobody's heard from you
since.

How is life
as a stay-at-home mom?

Please, don't do this, Sam.

Sorry. You know the rules.

[Beeps phone off]

[♪♪]

[Knocking at door]

[Door creaks]

I was a jerk.

Yes, you were.

We were a team.

Call me sensitive,

but a Christmas card
might have been nice.

Sam...

It was hard enough leaving.

Cutting it off
made it easier.

You're in the program.
Try and understand that.

I like the wheels.

Thank you. Life's good.

You still doing herbal tea?

No. I've switched
to the hard stuff.

Make it leaded.

Nice watch.

They're going to have to
Bury me in it.

This was one hell
of a birthday gift.

Between the 10 of US,

it was still
too expensive.

Platinum's not cheap.

So?
Why the sudden social visit?

We got a tip
from an rv park

50 miles
outside the prison.

A resident there said
he spotted three men

that fit
the convicts' descriptions.

By the time
the other cops get there,

the other two will be dead.

Calgrove doesn't
need them anymore.

He has a purpose.

He's on a mission,
and I'm it.

Nobody knows him
like we do, Sam.

And he won't stop at me.

He'll go after my family.

Don't worry.

You know I'm not gonna let
anything happen to you, Jackie.

Not to you, or to Amber.

Uh... ahem.

[Sets cup down]

Really bad.

[Phone rings]

Hello?

Well, you were right.

Found calgrove's buddies.
Both shot through the head.

Just hang by the phone.
He can't get far.

You don't believe that.

Don't placate me.

Jackie?

Jackie.

Come to bed.

[Phone rings]

Sam?

Sam?

[Line clicks, dial tone buzzes]

It was him.

You don't know that.

It was calgrove.

It was probably some punk kid.

They make crank calls
all the time.

[Sighs] Jackie...

We can't live
like this again.

He said he would make me pay
for putting him behind bars.

Y-You heard him swear it
in the courtroom.

Coming back here
doesn't make sense.

Sick people don't make sense.

He's going to kill again.

It's like a drug for him.

The closer he gets to me,

the more excitable and dangerous
he'll get.

Look what
you're doing to yourself

why can't you just trust me?

I know how killers think.

I was trained at it.

It was my job.

I hated your job.

I'm sorry, Jackie,
but I never understood it.

How could anyone

do what you did,
and not be impacted by it?

And you were.

You projected your fears
and your horrors

onto our family...

[Clicks mouse]

Now you're doing it
all over again.

[♪♪]

[Phone rings]

Sam, tell me it's over.

[Man's voice]:
It's not over, bitch.

Remember me?

I've thought about you

every damn minute

I was locked behind bars.

You're going to pay
for setting me up.

Afraid to talk,
you lying bitch?

[Sing-song]: I can
hear you breathing...

[Scoffs] Enjoy it.

You won't be for long.

Left a present for you

where the 5 and 99 meet.

A little preview
of things to come.

Next, it'll be
your husband,

then it'll be
your daughter.

I'm going to
make you watch.

And when I'm done,

I'm gonna tie
a pretty little bow

around your neck.

I heard you like
gift-wrap.

[Calgrove snickering]

[Text beeps]

[Beeps phone off]

[♪♪]

[Radios crackling indistinctly]

That's what my tutor said.

Here. Got it.

They found the body.

Amber, why don't you
go upstairs, honey?

Okay.

White female,
approximately 45 years of age.

Cause of death,
strangulation.

By "a pretty little bow"
tied around her neck.

Call came from
the dead woman's cell,

near Grant's pass, Oregon.

He could be here at any time.

Well, that's
350, 400 miles away.

He'll move quick.
He'll find a way.

Jackie's right.

The only thing greater than
his need to kill is his I.Q.

Richard, we're gonna need you
to lay low

for a little while,
get off the grid.

I'm responsible
for an entire department.

I've got students
that depend on me.

Your family's safety
should come first.

Take Amber
and go to a hotel.

What about Jackie?

I need to be here.

What if he tries
to contact me again?

It's too dangerous.

[Sam]: We'll take care of her.

I'll make sure she's safe.

I don't want my wife
being used as bait.

[Heavy sigh]

I have to do this.

It's the only way I can be sure
that you two are safe.

Let's be real,
Jackie.

You haven't felt safe
in a long time.

Even if
they catch him,

you think that's
going to change?

It's all right, baby.

It's only for a couple of days.

[♪♪]

[Tires squealing]

[Crash erupts]

[♪♪]

[Phone ringing]

Okay, Sam.

Hey.

My bad, right?

Really?

Yeah.

Hey.

What do we got?

It's over, Jackie.

- Really?
- Yeah. Take a look.

What's the matter, Sam?

Afraid she'll be
out of your life again?

[Cell rings]

Bailey.

Thank you.

We've got a print match.

That's fantastic.

The impact
from the propane explosion

sent calgrove's body
into the bay.

Coast guard's
searching for him now.

[Jackie]:
I can barely make him out.

Well, hopefully,
we got a better shot.

That's where we pulled
the prints from, the lockbox.

Well, one thing's for certain.

He has good taste
in motorcycles.

And he's outta there.

- That's it?
- Mm.

We don't have enough
to I.D. Him.

Prints? We know that
he can pull anything off!

Sorry.

We don't
have anything!

Wait. Yes we do.

There he is.

It's him.

[♪♪]

Oh.

[Chuckling]

We got him.

[♪♪]

Come here, honey!

Well, it took an act of god,
but we got him.

I guess sometimes
the big guy throws in a perk.

She's a good
woman, Richard.

[Birds chirping]

[Dialing]

[Phone rings]

Hello?

Hey.

I need to see you.

How about
half an hour?

Okay. Seeya.

Where are you going?
Dinner's almost ready.

Sorry. There's
something I need to do.

Don't wait for me.

[Footsteps receding]

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

You are so beautiful.

Next, it'll be your husband.

Then it'll be your daughter.

When I'm done,

I'm gonna tie a pretty
little bow around your neck.

[♪♪]

[Phone rings]

[Snaps]: Richard, please.

I know it's you, calgrove.

You stay away from my family.

You hear me?

I will not let you
come near them.

You hear me, you son of a bitch?

Amber...

I am so sorry.

Come here, honey.

[♪♪]

Look what you're doing.

You need help.

You need to
get back into therapy.

[Elevator bell dings]

[♪♪]

[Knocking]

Come in, Jackie.

[♪♪]

I keep...

Thinking about what could
happen to Amber.

I keep seeing these images

playing over and over
in my head.

[Takes a shaky breath, sighs]

I can't get rid of them.

Look what you've been through,
Jackie.

It's natural
to be afraid.

Your fears haven't left you,

and now, the prison break,
more murders,

they've caused them to escalate.

How do I get rid
of the fear?

Soldiers with
post-traumatic stress

don't just get rid of it.

They heal
by learning to cope.

It will get better,
but you have to give it time.

There's someone
I want you to see.

I... I want to stay with you.

Dr. Porterson is a specialist
in cognitive therapy.

He's going to
be perfect for you.

[♪♪]

[Over phone]:
Mrs. Wincroft?

This is Diana,

the vice-principal
at Amber's school.

Just calling
to verify your husband

is on his way to pick up Amber
for her dental appointment?

[Brakes screech]

[Door bangs open]

Is she here?

Is she in her classroom?

Yes! She's in
her classroom.

[Wheezing]
Richard did not call.

Amber doesn't have
a dental appointment.

I thought it was odd.

He spoke
with my secretary.

When I called back
to verify,

nobody answered.

Is there a problem?

My daughter is in danger.

Please, you have to be
on the look-out

for this man.

If you see him, call me.

Hasn't he been
on the news?

It's Jeffrey calgrove.

They say he died
at the golden gate,

but his death
hasn't been confirmed.

Well, rest assured,

we keep our eyes on her
at all times.

Thank you.

I'll talk
to the principal.

We'll make copies

and distribute a copy
of this photo to everyone.

[Exhales wearily]

Hey.

Thanks for the invite.

What's the occasion?

We need to reopen
the case, Sam.

Come on, Jackie.

You know
I can't do that.

It's over. We have
conclusive evidence

that it was calgrove
on the bike.

There's been
more phone calls.

Did he identify himself?

Did you two
have a conversation?

He called Amber's school, posing
as Richard.

He tried to pick her up.

Whoever the pervert is,

we'll take care of him,
but it wasn't calgrove.

What if he survived
that fall?

Come on, Jackie.

At least 15 people
have done it

in the last
five years alone, Sam.

And how many hundreds
have jumped?

It's a stretch,
even for you.

The coast guard
searched the bay.

The tide has swept away
what's left of him.

He's shark bait
by now.

He was smiling in the camera
because he was taunting me.

He's in his domination phase.

When are you
going to end this crap?

He's dead!

What are you gonna do,

keep looking
over your shoulder

for the rest
of your life?

He's coming
to kill my family, Sam!

Just give me access
to his files.

To do what?

Try and find Margaret.

She'll know
where he is.

That old junkie's
topsoil by now.

Please, Sam.
Just get me the files.

You know I have
a hard time

saying no to you.

This is harassment.

I'll do the rest
on my own.

You're a pain in the ass.

You're going to
buy me lunch.

I'm ordering lobster.

You can afford it.

You got a big
sailboat out here.

We're downsizing.

Smaller boat,
different name.

Calling her Serenity.

Serenity?

It's Richard's dream that
we'll all sail away on it.

Sailboat's
too much work.

I see a yacht
in my future.

I've made
the right investments.

I'm going to sit back,
let the crew do the work.

Want to come with?

We have problem.

Hmm?

I have a family!

They can come, too.

You thought I just
meant you? Hah!

Jackie.

Jackie, that's kind of naughty.

[Sam laughing]

[Phone rings]

Hello?

I thought
I'd cook lamb chops tonight.

Well, that sounds good.

Amber's gonna be
dropped off after dinner.

Could you run by the store
and pick up the chops?

I'm going to be late.

Where are you?

I have
an afternoon therapy session.

All right, yeah. Sure.

Thank you, honey.

Bye-bye.

[Dialing]

[Phone rings]

Hello?

Hi.

I thought
we were meeting at 5:00?

We are.

Oh. Okay. Good.

I'll see you then.

[Thumps phone down]

[Blows anxiously]

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

[Door creaks]

[Muffled casual voices,
televisions playing]

[Knocking]

[Door opens]

- I'm looking for a woman...
- [Door slams]

[♪♪]

[Door slams]

[♪♪]

[Bottles clattering,
distant dog barking]

Hey!

Aww!

You broke
my needle, lady.

This is
my delivery system.

Do you
live around here?

I'm looking for a woman
named Margaret calgrove.

She lived in six
with her son, Jeff.

Look, if you have
any information,

any information at all,
I can make it worth your while.

Call me if you see her.

[Cans clattering]

[Richard]:
How was your day?

Guess what?
We've already made

half the money
for our field trip.

Tell your dad
where you're going.

Sacramento
and the train museum, old town,

and the state capitol.

Hey! Sweetie, that's great.

[Floorboard creaking]

[Phone rings]

We agreed.
No phone calls during dinner.

[Ringing continues]

What the...?

Mom?

Don't worry.
We just blew a fuse.

What are you doing?

I'm getting a flashlight.

No.

Stay with Amber.

I'll take a look.

[Quiet thump]

What was that?

Come here.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

You stay here,
sweetheart.

I'll go find her.

[♪♪]

Jackie?

[Branch snaps]

[♪♪]

[Thud]

[♪♪]

[Power clicking on]

[Groans]

Jackie! You okay?

I'm fine. Oh!

I'm fine.

Someone was running
from the house.

Jackie...

We had an agreement.

No guns with Amber
in the house.

It was calgrove.

You don't know that.

After what
happened today?

It doesn't matter.

It does matter!

He tried to pick
Amber up from school.

Let's get you
in the house.

You're not even
listening to me!

We have to
hide this thing!

Please, Jackie.

Try to act normal
when Amber sees you.

[♪♪]

[Car horn honks]

[Shutter snaps]

[♪♪]

That's a good set-up.

These guys know
what they're doing.

You're starting
to believe me now?

The neighborhood's
been reporting

similar incidents.

Most likely, you've got
a run-of-the-mill perv

on your hands.

All the same,

I'm glad
you've got it covered.

I'll take that as a yes.

Taking any special
precautions with Amber?

Bonnie's picking her up
after school today.

She can stay over there
until I'm sure it's safe.

Good. These guys'll
be watching 24/7.

They see anything
suspicious,

they'll alert US
right away.

What about Margaret?

Any luck finding her?

Sam...

I can't put Savannah white's
murder to rest.

Oh, come on, Jackie.

We've been over this
a hundred times.

Calgrove always drank
at the same bar.

Those coins
with his prints

they could've
been picked up

and planted
at the scene.

And he always stopped
just short of taking credit

for the other murders,

but not white's.

Why do you think that is?

Maybe the work didn't
meet his high standards.

Something's not right.

It was the same m.O.

The same rope,

the same marks on her neck,
the same entry, it all matches.

But not the signature.

The signature
never changes.

The emotional core,

what's unique
to the personality.

That's what you taught me.

Bravo.

Calgrove's thrill
isn't in the kill.

It's in the overpowering.

He didn't batter

or torture white.

He heard you.
You interrupted him.

That's the only
logical explanation.

Whoever tipped me off
had a motive.

Or they wouldn't have
come forward.

They didn't want to
be on radar...

His, or ours.

[Text alert chimes]

What is it?

Oh, my god!

Bonnie? Bonnie!
Where the hell are you?

She's not picking up!

[Tires squealing]

[Siren starts wailing]

[Siren wailing]

We need back-up
at 114 tellwin street.

Please be advised,
there's a child in the house.

Bonnie, where
the hell are you?

Bonnie!

She's not even answering.

[Tires squealing,
sirens wailing]

Stay here.

Jackie. Stay there.

[Bangs on door]

Police!
Open the door!

[♪♪]

[Door thumps wall]

Amber?

Amber! Bonnie!

Amber?

[Phone beeps]

I'm really sorry
for the inconvenience.

Thanks again.

It's okay, mom.

We just walked to the mall.

[Door bangs]

What happened?
Is everything okay?

We had
a little emergency.

It was cool, dad.

All these police showed up,
just like on a TV show.

Go inside, Amber.
I'll be in in a minute.

[Door closes]

He sent
another text,

and he said
he had Amber.

Sam rushed me
to Bonnie's.

Turned out
to be a false alarm.

I want another officer
on the case.

He doesn't
support you, Jackie.

He never has.

That's not true.

Richard's been under
a lot of pressure at work.

He just hasn't
been himself lately.

Don't make
excuses for him.

You deserve better.

Don't go there, Sam.

Marriages
have struggles.

He's a good man.

He's a great father.

He's loyal.

You should wake up, Jackie.

When are you going to see
what's going on?

What are you saying?

Loyalty shouldn't be one-way.

You're not good at reading
people closest to you.

Hold on!

Now, you brought it up.

I'm not gonna let you
just drive away.

What are you saying?

Is he having an affair?

Why don't you
ask your therapist?

He's seeing Dr. Dillson?

Are you telling me
they're lovers?

For how long?

You came this far.
You tell me what you know.

I don't know
anything for sure.

I'm sorry.

What else do you know?

Does he take her
on business trips?

What hotels do they stay at?

Do you know much money
we have in the bank?

How about how much

I've charged on my credit cards
this month?

And how the hell do you know
I have a therapist?

How dare you
invade my life?

Why don't you
just leave me alone?

You know why.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

This is going to
be so cool!

Aunt Elaine said
the San Diego zoo

has a polar ice cap
you can ski on.

That's great, sweetie.

Thank you so much
for doing this, Elaine.

I'm happy to do it.

It's so last-minute.

It'll be fun.

[Engine starts]

[Vehicle departs]

[Door shuts]

Why didn't you tell me
Elaine called?

It happened so fast,
Richard.

The time-share
at the beach came up,

and she offered
to fly her there.

How can you make
plans like this

and not tell me?

Because I knew you'd say no.

Oh, come on!

Our daughter is in danger.

Jackie, you manipulated this!

When are you going to come
to grips with what's going on?

Calgrove took photos of Amber,

he tracked her
to Bonnie's house.

[Sighs]

Somebody had to take action.

Just look at these!

[Sighs] There's nothing here.

No photos, no messages.

He must have
some way of deleting them.

That's not possible!

Of course it is!

There are programs
that do that. Check it out.

Don't tell me what he can do.

I know him!

He can't tie me to a chair,

so this is his way
of torturing me.

The photos were there.
Ask Sam.

You're just trying to
bring Sam back into your life.

That's insane.

You think
I don't know

how you thought about him,
day and night?

How you always
brought your work home?

Richard.

I think
you're in love with him.

I have never
been unfaithful to you.

Can you say the same?

[Sighs]

How can you even ask me that?

[♪♪]

[Starts car]

[♪♪]

[Calgrove]: When I'm done,

I'm gonna tie a pretty
little bow around your neck.

[Tires squealing]

[Metal crunching]

[♪♪]

Well, she has
been under

a tremendous
amount of pressure.

Maybe there's some kind of
medication you can give her

to help her through this?

Yeah, we can
take care of that.

Just give me a sec
and I'll be right in.

- Okay?
- Great.

Jackie.

You're okay.

It's just a precaution.

[Groans]

Doctor says
you're gonna be fine.

[Footsteps]

Mrs. Wincroft,
your x-rays look good.

No broken bones.

You're a lucky lady,

but you are gonna
be sore for awhile.

- When can I leave?
- You have a concussion.

We're gonna
keep you overnight,

just for observation.

Is there anything
that you need?

No, thank you.

All right. I will
see you in the morning.

[P.A.]: Dr. Miller, phone call
at nurses' station four.

Dr. Miller, phone call
at nurses' station four.

I called
Theresa dillson.

I asked her to come
and talk to you.

Richard...

Why?

What if Amber
had been in the car?

We need you.

I don't know
what we'd do without you.

However long it takes,
we need you to get better.

[♪♪]

[Phone beeping]

Baxford.

What? What happened?
You okay?

I was driving.

I was upset, I looked over,

and there it was...

Tied in a bow.

I'll be there in 10.

No.

Richard may come back
and I don't want him

to see you.

What do you need?

My car was towed.

I don't know where it is.

I'll find it.

The line should still
be in there.

Don't worry. I'll get it.

Sam...

The doctor wants to
keep me overnight,

but I think they'll try
to keep me here.

I need a car.

I gotta get
out of this place.

[♪♪]

Mornin'.

[Gate rattling]

What kind of cop
are you, anyway?

Homicide.

I specialize in
behavioral analysis.

Did somebody die
in this wreck?

I thought some lady
just hit a tree or something.

That's right,

but this vehicle's
involved in

another open investigation.

Sicko stuff.

Looking at dead bodies
all day

will make you
a little crazy yourself, huh?

You get used to it.

Can't complain.

It's a job.

A lot of people out of work.

Yeah. Lazy
is all they are.

Livin' off the system.

You know you can't take
nothing out of this car

without a search warrant.

Right?

Is that so?

Well, you're a cop.

Fourth amendment.
Right of the people.

You don't like it,

complain
to the founding fathers.

All done here.

[Door bangs shut]

Have a great day.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

Jackie wincroft's room?

[Announcement crackles]:
Dr. Mclean to pediatrics.

Dr. Mclean
to pediatrics.

[Knocks]

They're beautiful.

How do you feel?

[Sighs wearily]
Like I've been

on the losing end
of a boxing match.

Jackie,
I talked to Dr. Porterson,

the cognitive therapist.

Says you didn't call him.

I think you need to spend
a few more days here.

You look tired.

I'm fine.

Don't you think
you need some time

to get away
from your routine,

the house,
your family?

How's your relationship
with Richard?

Becoming more and more distant.

I think
he's having an affair.

Everything is
confusing now.

All the more reason
for you to take a break.

The garden pavilion,
it's peaceful, quiet.

Yeah, I've read the reviews.

Great food, group therapy,

locked doors.

Not where
you'll be staying.

The garden is a place
for you to decompress

and really
take a look at things.

Only for a couple of days.

I'll make the arrangements.

I have to sleep.

Of course.

You take
all the time you need.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

How's my car?

[Sam]: Not good.

It's at a wreckage yard.

The guy looking after it
thinks he's Thomas Jefferson.

[♪♪]

[Horn honks]

They sell the same damned line
at every marine store

up and down the coast,

but we'll run tests
and see what we get.

I got you
a hotel room.

The address
and registration

are in the glove box.

Jackie, I shouldn't have
told you about Richard.

I think a part of me
always knew.

I think it hurt
that it came from you.

Stay safe.

[♪♪]

[Starts engine]

[♪♪]

Hi there.

You recognize
this man?

Yeah, the fugitive.
He was all over the news.

Was he here?
Did he buy anything?

No way. I'd
remember that face.

Hey. He took
a header, right?

Flew over the rail
on a hot bike?

[Background chatter]

[Cell rings]

Hello?

Yeah. You're...
You're the one lookin' for...

[Coughs]
For Jeffrey's ma?

You found Margaret?

Yeah. Bring the money.

I'll be waiting.

[Siren wails distantly]

Hey! Give me
the money.

Give me the money!

Not until
I get an address.

- Gimme...
- A legitimate one.

[Hyperventilating]
A bitch cop, huh?

You got it or not?

If you lied,
I'll find you.

[Giggles greedily]

[♪♪]

[Horn honks, locks engage]

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

[Knocks]

[Muffled]:
Who is it?

Margaret?

Is that you?

Do you
remember me?

Don't know if I do.

Margaret,
I was wondering

if you could...

Tell me about Jeffrey.

You could find out
all you want on the news.

My Jeffrey's dead.

Else he'd be here,
right here with his mama.

I'm sorry.

Hadn't gone to the pen,
he'd still be here.

He never killed
that Savannah woman.

That night,
my boy was home with me.

He was home with his mama.

I should've... I should've
talked to them people,

I should've told them

that "I have to put my hand
on that Bible."

You weren't a credible
witness, Margaret.

You were strung out
on heroin that night.

How could you have known
he was there?

I'd know.

My boy was the only one
I let shoot me up.

Anyway, he'd never kill
a prostitute,

that's for sure.

Why do you say that?

My boy was born to one.

He knew what I did
to keep him fed

and he never
went hungry,

not a day in his life.

He loved his mama.

[♪♪]

I know you.

You're the one
who said he did it.

Liar!

I'm sorry.

You're gonna go to hell
for what you said!

I'm sorry.

You get out!

You get out!
You get out of my house!

You get out! Get out!

[Slam]

[Sobbing]

You killed my boy!
It's your fault!

He's dead!
He's dead 'cause of you!

It's 'cause of you.

He never killed that woman.

My boy never...
[Breaks into weeping]

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

There's a piece we missed.

Who gives a damn?
He's watching you.

You need to get off the streets.

[Banging on window]

[Beeps phone off]

Damn it, Jackie.

- [Blares horn]
- Go!

[♪♪]

[TV reporter]: It was here,
just 30 minutes ago,

an officer came upon
the grisly murder scene...

[TV reporter #2]:
Yesterday, finally, finally,

physical evidence
was found at the condominium...

Coins of evidence.

Now, calgrove was interrogated
twice on four other murders

and got off
for lack of evidence.

Not this time.

An officer came upon

[Jack-hammering]

Physical evidence

in the condominium.

Coins of evidence, people.

Now, calgrove was interrogated
twice on four other murders

and got off
for lack of evidence.

Not this time.

[Bailey]: Is there
any evidence to tie him

to the four previous murders
with the same m.O.?

[Jackie]: No. This one
was sloppier than the others.

[Sam]: He never got a chance
to finish the job.

He heard Jackie coming
and beat a retreat.

[Bailey]: Just be glad
for that anonymous tip

that led you to the coins

with calgrove's fingerprints
on them.

Hello?

Hi, Elaine.

Is Amber there?

Sure thing.
Amber? It's your mom.

Hi, mommy.
I miss you.

Hey, baby.

Are you having fun?

Yeah! The zoo's awesome.

They have
a new baby giraffe.

Aw. I wish
I could be there with you.

I miss you.

I wish
you were here, too.

I love you.

Love you.

Bye, mom.

[Beep]

[Beeps phone off]

- [Pounding on door]
- [Sam]: Jackie!

Jackie!

[Pounding]

Oh, thank god.

Where the hell
have you been?

No way he could've
heard me coming.

The news clip proves it.

I had forgotten about
the construction

the day of the murder.

You have a death wish
or something?

You have a killer
on your ass,

and you're out there
playing a game of "clue."

I'm the one
who took the stand.

I took an oath.

We missed a beat?

Calgrove is trash.
Why do you care so much?

It matters.

A killer could be
walking around free.

It won't be
the first time,

and it sure as hell
won't be the last.

You never would have
said that two years ago.

There are
more important things

for you to be thinking about
right now.

Like you, Sam?

Like your daughter.

You're no good to anyone dead.

And, yes, me.

I'd just gotten over you
and then you turn up again.

It's making me crazy.

You need to
get some sleep.

Fat chance.

When are we gonna
stop pretending

like there's nothing
going on here?

You have to admit

it's been
just as hard on you

as it has been on me,

not seeing each other
every day.

Yes.

So, what are we
gonna do about it?

Sam.

Come on, Jackie.

Richard has not
been faithful.

I'm sorry.

Shouldn't
have done that.

[Door shuts]

[♪♪]

[Phone ringing]

[Wheels rattling]

[Beep]

Wow! "Out of the blue"
is an understatement.

Where you been,
Ms. Jackie?

You're the buzz about town.
You tell me.

Word was
you've been baking cupcakes.

So what do ya need?

Everything you've got on
Savannah white's murder.

Discovery, trial...

Anything.

Gotcha.

You need it
for TV, mags, or rags,

I'm your man.

Is that pick-up or delivery?

Can you email it to me?

[♪♪]

[Phone chimes]

[♪♪]

[Richard]: Dr. Wincroft here.
Please leave a message.

[Beep]

Richard? Listen.
You're in danger.

Go someplace safe.

If you're around people,
get to a police station.

Whatever you do,
don't be alone.

[♪♪]

Bailey here.

Bailey, I need you
to get through to Sam for me.

[Brakes screech]

[♪♪]

Richard!

Richard.

Richard!

[♪♪]

Theresa. Theresa.

[Richard]: Dr. Wincroft here.
Please leave a message.

[Beep]

The message said 3:00.
I don't think

I can make it, Sam,
I'm just leaving campus.

Where's Richard now?

Theresa's office,
8974 kedmont ave.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

[Door bangs]

Drop it, calgrove,
or I'll blow your head off!

[Exhales]

[Phone rings]

[Text chimes]

[Panting]

[♪♪]

Shouting,
and I walked through the door,

and she's pointing
a gun at me,

right at my head,
and I'm terrified.

[Fuming sigh]

Do you have any idea
the problems

you've caused
this department?

I mean, we're looking
at, uh, aggravated assault,

colluding with an officer.

He could have our asses.

Calgrove is sending me
messages.

Then where is it, Jackie?

He's dead.

Prove that to me!

I don't have to prove
a damn thing to you!

You are no longer
a part of this department.

You no longer have access
to our records, our staff,

including Sam.

He's taunting me.

He's sending me messages
and he's deleting them.

I saw one, Mike.

Yeah, yeah. You've always
been watching her ass.

Not only is Mr. Clean
going to be a problem,

your therapist is out there
right now,

making a report.

What?

What's she doing here?

She says
it's her ethical duty

to report
any concerns about you.

Come on. You believe that?

Do you?

You've had problems before,
Jackie.

[Alarm chirps]

It's not enough that
you're sleeping with my husband,

you've got to get me
locked up, too?

[Sighs]

I'm not sleeping
with Richard.

Jackie, I'm here

because I'm genuinely
concerned about you.

I have ways of knowing.

He goes to your house.

You guys meet
at different places.

There's been phone calls.

Richard is my patient.

There is nothing
going on between US.

I don't believe you.

Well, you're
going to have to.

I can't tell you any more.

I have already broken
my confidentiality.

Is it our marriage?

Jackie,
you need to talk to Richard.

[Car starts]

Why didn't you tell me
you were seeing Theresa?

[Sighs heavily]

I can't
do this anymore.

I'm going to the boat.

Richard,
what's going on?

I never know how

you're going to
react to things, Jackie.

I can't talk to you.

You can
tell me anything.

I'm your wife.

No. I can't.

There was a time
when I could,

but I can't anymore.

I started going to her office to
ask about you

and try and get some insight

into what
you were going through,

help bridge this gap
that's been growing between US,

but, soon, I wasn't
asking her about you,

I was telling her about me.

I had an easier time
talking to her than you.

My own wife.

You should've come to me.

[Sighs]

Our life was good

till Jeffrey calgrove
came into it.

I didn't invite him in.

He's dead.

He's a ghost.

But it's not over for you.

He's never going to
leave our lives.

[Zips bag shut]

I think you proved that today

when you almost killed
an innocent man.

[♪♪]

[Shutter snapping]

[Telephone rings]

Hello.

Hey, babe. You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine, Sam.

You don't sound fine.
I can hear it in your voice.

You heard Mike.

I'm bad news.

You should stay away.

Well, that ain't gonna happen.

You ever wonder
what life would've been like

if we'd never met?

Yeah, a sad day in hell.

Would have been
a whole lot easier.

A whole lot more simple.

I'm in your corner, Jackie.

A lot of other people aren't.

You telling me to stay away?

I don't know.

I don't know what I'm saying.

I got to go, Richard's here.

Yeah.

[Beep]

[Sighs wearily]

[Bell clangs]

[Hugo]: Excellent news.
Get this.

I'm speaking at defcon.

Oh. What's defcon?

"What's defcon?"

Only the world's
largest hacking convention.

I'm making
two presentations,

"cracking computer systems" and
"dirty secrets of the feds."

And they're going to let me
sell my DVDs, "how to fuzz."

Pure profit.

What's fuzzing?

It's basically
a program designed

to discover
security vulnerabilities

by sending out
random input.

But, Hugo,
isn't all this stuff illegal?

Hey, we're providing
a service.

By teaching people
how to hack,

they can stay one step
ahead of the hackers.

Oh!

You wanna
check out my DVD?

I'm sure it's great,

but when I've had
more sleep.

Dude, your eyes
are glazed like a donut.

I went over all
the pages you gave me,

and nothing new.

Put you
on overwhelm, huh?

Savannah ran
a tight operation.

Hells, yes.

At the time
of the investigation,

we even had a hard time
finding her Johns.

Word was she had
professional protection,

someone supposedly legit.

He did the dirty work,

and she moved up the ranks
and they became partners.

Hugo, I know
there are programs

that can be timed
to make a call,

but can they be programmed...

- To retrieve a call?
- Yes.

It can be done.

Just you and me?

Where are you? Damn it!

You're here.

I can feel you.

It's not your style...

Tie a pretty little bow
and leave.

All this time...

I've been reading
the mind of a killer.

Only the killer...

Has been you.

Wasn't it, Sam?

[♪♪]

Very clever,

killing Savannah
and using calgrove's m.O.

I thought
it was a nice touch.

[♪♪]

What's wrong?

She didn't pay you enough?

[Sam]: She wouldn't take
my generous offer

of a 50-50 split.

And then she tried
to blackmail me.

I had to kill her.

Why'd you do it, Sam?

How couldn't I?

When calgrove turned up again,
it was a sign.

We belong together.

I couldn't lose you again.

You tortured me!

And the people I love!

[Raising voice]:
Richard doesn't love you!

All you had to do
was leave him, Jackie!

That is all
you had to do!

So I took care of it.

You're welcome.

[♪♪]

You're sick, Sam!

Come on, Jackie.

You'll always be mine.

[Slams door]

[Loads chamber]

No more, Sam!

Don't push me.

Don't make me kill you!

- Jackie.
- [Gasping]

I like it
when you play rough.

So tell me.

What tipped you off?

Down-sizing.

Down-sizing?

You're the only one who knew

that we were changing the name
of the boat to "Serenity."

My god, you're so good.

[Laughing]

Doesn't prove anything.

Oh, but maybe

the text messages
will, Sam.

I have proof
of where they originated,

how they were set up,

how they were sent.

And I have you
recorded on my cell phone.

Mm.

Get your hands off.

[♪♪]

You don't mind, do you?

[♪♪]

[Chuckles]

We don't need these, do we?

No?

[♪♪]

Here's my report, sir.

This time, I got it right.

Looks good.

Great to have you back.

Are you sure
you're ready for this?

This is where
I belong, captain.

I'm at my best
when I'm doing this job.

Just so you know,

the department has
counseling services

available
if you ever feel you need it.

I'm not going to let anyone
or anything

take away someone I love
or deny me what I love to do.

The calgroves of this world
can't do that to me anymore.

Sorry, sir.

I have to get home to dinner.

Give Amber a hug for me.

She's back. Hmph!

Catch any bad guys
today, mommy?

No. Not today.

I can't catch one
every day.

Mostly because

the bad guys know better than
to mess with mom these days.

[♪♪]

Life is good.
