Criminal Minds (2005–…): Season 16, Episode 8 - Pas De Deux - full transcript

Previously on "Criminal
Minds: Evolution"...

You've had a lot on your
shoulders since we got back.

But, um...

You're talking about us?

Okay, just give me a chance.

Alright? To make it up to you.

Everything okay?

I had to go in for a
physical and they drew blood,

and my platelet count
was like over 400.

It could be cancer.

All of the
identified victims



have a connection to the name

of a single location...
Second Street.

She's right.

In whatever city
Sicarius finds himself,

Second Street is his
preferred hunting ground.

The Attorney General is
going to shut you down.

Sicarius is still at large.

Somebody or something
made this guy very good.

Did you come here to kill me?

I just came here to
watch an old man die.

If I die, they'll
connect me to you.

I need to know
what your plan is.

This isn't working.

I think I should go.



I kissed Tyler Green.

What?

There you are.

Magnify.

More.

More.

That is not how this works.

Penelope, just do it.

There.

We cannot get anything about
his face from this data.

Look, I'm sorry that
we have to do this.

I know that you didn't
get any sleep last night.

That is...

How do you know I didn't
get any sleep last night?

You drink a third cup of tea

when you've had a
bad night's sleep.

Work stress?

Yes.

Yes, work stress.

Okay. Now I know it's
not that.

But whatever it is, it
doesn't compare to this.

Sicarius is right there.
We can't identify him.

Yeah, he's wearing
that ball cap,

but he's got his head down,
so he knows he's on camera.

And that's not the only thing
he's paying attention to.

Uh, go to, uh, frame 356.

O-Okay. He's not
reaching for his wallet.

He already paid.

He's done it twice.

What the hell is he up to?

Good day. This is Ramona.

Hey, Ramona. It's Lee.

Hey, there, Lee.

I missed you at the
open house on Bexel.

Yeah, that's actually
what I was calling about.

I was hoping you might have
some time for a-a walk-through

this afternoon, maybe?

You're in luck. I am free.

What time were you thinking?

Whatever works for you.

Uh, okay. Let's say 2:30?

2:30. Perfect.

I-I really appreciate it.

No problem. I'll
see you there.

Yeah. See you there.

Michael, get your backpack.

Henry! Henry, let's go.

Michael's ready.

Henry! Alright, come on.

I'll walk you to the bus.
But Henry's supposed to.

Why does he sleep so late?

Henry, let's go.

Yeah, I'm coming.

- Wanna race to your bus?
- Let's go!

Careful.

Bye.

Is it just me, or did Henry
have a little attitude?

He's 14. It'd be
weird if he didn't.

Do you want coffee?

A gallon. Please.

Wow. What a disaster.

Ugh.

Oh. Yes.

Thank you. Mm-hmm.

Mm.

You got any new
leads on Sicarius?

Mm.

Um, there's someone named Cyrus

and some benign
surveillance footage.

But really nothing else solid.

And how's Dave doing?

Losing it.

We can't catch a break.

You will.

It's only a matter of time
before this guy slips up.

I'm not so sure.

His body count is staggering,

and there might be another one
of those buried containers,

and...

You know what?
That's enough of that.

Your turn.

Please, give me some good news.

Well, the doc called, and my,
uh, levels have stabilized.

So no more tests for six months.

That is good news.Yeah.

Did Dr. Harvey give you
a printout of the labs?

No, they're all on the portal.
There were too many panels.

You can log on
there if you want.

What's the password?

The laptop remembers
so I don't have to.

Right.

So, Lee, did a client refer you?

No, actually, I saw
an ad of yours online.

And you seemed like the
right choice for me.

I guess it's my lucky day then.

So you're married?

Mm-hmm. Two daughters.

Here. Look.

Aw, lovely. Yeah.

Do you have kids? I do.

A boy and a girl. Aww.

One is in the midst
of adolescence agony.

But that's part of
the deal, right?

Yeah, that's what they say.

Honestly, I'm kind of
hoping a change of scenery

I-I just don't think
this is the place.

It feels a little small.

So, you're thinking
another bedroom?

Yeah. And maybe, uh,
uh, like a workspace.

Um... Also, I-I don't know
if this is even possible,

but I know that my
wife would just love

a view of the mountains.

Okay, yes. I know exactly
the place you're looking for.

Really? It's over on Wind Ridge.

Uh-huh. I can show
it to you now.

Right now? Absolutely.

Um, I took a ride
share over here,

so just give me the address
and I'll meet you over there.

No, no. I'll take you there.

No, that is above and beyond.

Seriously, that's what
I do.

Come on. You're
gonna love this one.

I promise you. I'm excited.

Oh, here. After you.

Thank you.Yeah.

Please.

I don't have any money.

I don't
have anything.

I disagree with that.

You'd do anything to
keep them safe, yeah?

Yes.

Yeah. Of course you would.

You're just like her.

Her? Who? I don't understand.

I know this is
really scary for you,

but I need you to understand
what I'm capable of.

I've killed 61 people.

Oh, God. Oh, God.

Ramona, Ramona.
Hey. Pay attention.

We haven't even gotten to
the important part yet.

You're showing me your face.

Oh, God, I know what that means.
You're showing me your face.

I don't want to die.

Nobody does. Nobody does.

Okay? So you want
a chance to live?

Yes. Yes, I do.

Okay. Good.

Then you need to help me.

Help you? Mm-hmm.

I need you to help
me save my marriage,

and then I'll spare your life.

Okay?

"Few things can
help an individual more

than to place
responsibility on him

and to let him know
that you trust him."

Booker T. Washington.

Section Chief Prentiss?

Captain Ballard?

Call me Paul, please.

Only if you call me Emily.

Appreciate you coming all
the way up here from Raleigh.

Well, I know your BAU is
looking at a suspect named Cyrus

in connection with the
Sicarius investigation.

But I also know the Sicarius
investigation is closed,

officially speaking.

So, I thought it best to
make a personal appearance,

just in case I need to hard-sell
a few upper-management suits

into helping out with my
State Bureau of Investigation.

What are you looking at?

I'm looking at a Cyrus LeBrun.

Died last week.
Kidney failure.

Lived out in the woods by
himself near Falls Lake.

Body wasn't actually found

until he missed a couple
doctor's appointments.

Anyway, when the
sheriff got out there,

he said the place
gave him the creeps,

so he called us in.

Really? Yeah.

We luminoled, and the
living room lit up

like the Fourth of July.

DNA? We ID'd at
least four victims,

one of which was Maria Jones,

the victim in the
Sylvio Herrera case.

You ran all the
DNA through NamUs?

We did.

Now, there were no
matches to the bodies

in either one of those
shipping containers,

but I'm telling you, this
Cyrus was clearly active

in the years leading up to
all those container victims,

so it's quite possible
that he evolved

into this Sicarius
you're looking for.

As you said, the
Sicarius case is closed,

but if the North Carolina
Bureau of Investigation

were to request the
BAU's assistance

in the LeBrun
investigation, then...

Consider it requested.

Officially.

Thank you, Paul.

Appreciate it, Emily.

Thank you.

North Carolina Bureau
of Investigation

just identified another
pre-container victim.

So, Cyrus LeBrun seems to be
the Cyrus we're looking for.

I guess, but the... The
victimology doesn't match.

Yeah, his male victims
are older and affluent,

and his female victims are
younger and disenfranchised.

Okay, so, he's
exerting dominance

by killing these powerful men

and then satisfying some
kind of sexual sadism

with these helpless women.

Neither of which speaks to
our profile of Sicarius.

It doesn't, but Maria Jones
is what ties the two together.

Yeah, it's not a coincidence.

There has to be some
relationship there.

Yeah. Oh, indeed. It does.

Mr. LeBrun did keep his life
close to his creepy vest.

However, there are
moments in time

that are eternally captured
in the digital archives,

like this one from
a family court

in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania, circa 1992.

Okay, so it says here that Cyrus
took custody of his nephew,

Lee Duval, after
the child's parents

were killed in an apartment
fire on Second Street.

Lee.

Isn't Lee the alias that
Sicarius used with Alison Green?

It is.

That's... That's
strange, isn't it?

What?

Given everything we
know about Cyrus LeBrun,

he doesn't seem
like the kind of guy

that would want to take
responsibility for a kid,

much less his sister's kid.

True, but there's no more
background information

on Lee or his parents.

Um, is this all you could find?

Oh, for now, my liege,
but I shall keep digging.

Wait, what was that?

What was what?

Like,
where's the snark?

Like, a comment about
how amazing it is

that I can tie my own shoes

or a question about
how I got into the FBI

wearing caveman overalls and
carrying a big wooden club.

You're funny. That's
funny. A club?

No, don't be so
hard on yourself.

Oh, my God.

She is getting some.

Dude, she is so getting some.

Stay tuned
for the final episode

and the dramatic
conclu...

To wake or not to wake?

I'll take him up.

Okay.

Buddy.

Let's get you up to bed.

Come on, little man.

Wah.

Climb on, buddy.

Let's go.

Come on.

You got to get to bed, too, bud.

Hey, Mom?

Yeah?

Is Dad okay?
Like, really okay?

Why are you asking that?

Never mind. Hey,
hey, hey. No. Hey.

What's... What's that face?

What's going on?

You avoided the answer.

It's a simple yes or no.

Yes.

If there's something else
going on, I want to know.

So you're not just saying he's
okay to make me feel better?

I'm not.

Promise?

Promise.

Uh-oh.

What did I do?

Henry's acting weird again.

Except this time he asked
if you were gonna be okay.

Well, I am okay.

But it's like he knew
something and was fishing.

Of course he was.

Look who his parents are.

He made me promise that
you were gonna be okay,

like, look him in
the eye and promise.

Well, let's make
sure we keep it.

Yeah.

Ah!

Okay, look at me.

Look at me like
I'm your husband.

Okay.

You're gone for over a
week. I just got home.

What do you say to me?

Uh...

Uh...

Honey, I'm so happy you're home.

Oh, no, no. That's bullshit.

You would never talk
to me like that. Never.

It's been you and two
kids for over a week.

What do you say? What
do you want me to say?

You know what I want you to
say! That's why I picked you!

Okay. Last chance.

Oh, God.

Honey, I'm home.

Fucking
son of a bitch!

Why are you doing this to me?

I would never
treat you this way!

I would never treat
anyone this way.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Now we're finally
getting somewhere.

So...

Honey, I have to
tell you something.

I have to tell you the truth.

I'm not the man you
fell in love with.

I never was.

I thought I could keep it
a secret, but m-my brain...

There's... There's
something wrong with me.

What's... What's wrong with you?

I've hurt people.

I've killed people.
I've tortured them.

And...

I liked it.

And now the cops, the
FBI, they're onto me.

They don't know who I am,

but they know what I've
done, and they're hunting me.

But I think I can change.

I really, really think I can,

but only if I have
you and the girls.

So what do you say?

Uh...

Would you hurt my babies?

Babies? I don't...

I don't know. I don't want to.

Do you remember in
the delivery room?

I was so scared and...

I sang to you.

Yes. You did.

You got me through it.

So if you mean it, if you
really want to change,

then... yes, I'll stay.

You wouldn't leave me?

I'm not saying no
strings attached.

If you wane me to
trust you again...

You'll have to earn it,

because you and I both
know I'm your better half.

Thank you.

For what you said.

It's the truth.

I'm gonna tell you
how this works.

I put an app on your phone so
they can't trace this call.

If you really want to, you
can make this difficult.

And you can describe me.

You can tell them what
you know about me.

I won't do that.

No, I know you won't.

Because the bottom line is this.

No matter what happens,

it isn't you who
should be afraid.

It's your husband, Gerald.

It's your children,
Andrew and Arianna.

Because if it's not me,

it'll be someone else
who comes to hurt them.

I understand.

Ramona?

W-W-What's going on?

Me and the kids are so worried.

I'm fine, honey.
Just calm down.

Tell me where you are.

I'll let the police know and
they'll come and get you.

No, Gerald, you have
to call the police back

and you need to let them
know I'm not in any danger.

Okay, this doesn't
make any sense, 'Mona.

You... You don't even
sound like yourself.

It's me.

And I'm completely safe.

How are Andy and Ari?

They're worried, like me.

Listen, you... you have got
to tell me what's going on.

I'm serious.

I just needed a break.

A-A break?
F-From... From what?

From our marriage.

You and I, we've
been drifting apart,

and I should have told you,

but I knew I wouldn't
take the time I needed

unless I just left.

O-Okay.

Um...

But for, uh, how long?

One more day.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

Yes.

You promise?

Trust me.

Tell me something, honestly.

Would you give your life in
exchange for your husband's?

No.

But for your children...

Without a doubt.

I guess...

we shall see.

Penelope dug
up some additional

Child Protective
Services records.

Apparently, Lee Duval goes to
live with his uncle, Cyrus,

in Falls Lake, North Carolina,

and then according to state
records, he was home-schooled.

So Cyrus got a state
stipend to raise his nephew.

Yeah. Until he was
18.Okay, and then what?

I mean, there's no
record of Lee Duval

after his 18th birthday.

None whatsoever.

As far as anyone's concerned,

this kid falls off the
face of the planet.

How do we know he's not
one of Cyrus's victims?

He could've been,
but do you know

how his parents died
in an apartment fire?

Take a look at the fire
marshal's report on that fire.

"Portable electric heating unit

in child's bedroom
compromised."

Right, which
investigators conclude

is accidental wear-and-tear.

Okay, but, uh, "the
10-year-old survivor

was initially thought to
have perished in the blaze

and was later recovered
at a nearby park."

Right. Now, listen, I
know I'm saying this

without a lot to go on here,

but it would explain
Cyrus's curious bond

with his young nephew if...

If he knew that he
killed his own parents.

Hey. Indio police
just contacted us.

A woman's been abducted.

Sicarius? Pretty sure.

Ramona Havener is
a real estate agent

based in Indio, California,
with an office on 2nd Street.

She told her assistant
that she was going

on a private walk-through at
a condo with a man named Lee.

Mother of two. 2nd Street.

She fits Sicarius'
victimology to a T.

And Indio was the site of one
of the two missing kill kits.

If that was meant to be
for one of his followers,

then it's possible Sicarius
brought him in on this one.

There's just one problem. This
case is officially closed.

Your call.

What do you want to do?

JJ and I will run interference
with the Attorney General.

Lewis, Alvez, Rossi, wheels up.

The heat on the
network has cooled.

I'm ready.

Good. I'm not like the others.

I know.

I follow the rules.

Yes, and that is
why you've survived.

And that is why I have
another gift for you.

Ramona Havener is a victim
that was taken from 2nd Street,

so she fits Sicarius'
victimology,

but she's off target
geographically.

Gang, I have an update

we can file under
"What the actual eff?"

Indio police just updated
their missing-persons report.

Ramona Havener called her
husband four hours ago.

So they're calling this
a "domestic squabble"

and they're closing the case.

Has she come back home,
though? No, not yet.

We'll keep investigating
until she does.

Prentiss is on Team
Rossi with this one.

She has let the
Indio police know

that Ramona is in grave
danger...

Which we can now
upgrade to a Code Red

because Ramona's
car was just found

at a local Pendale's
parking lot.

Oh, this is just
like Rory Gilcrest.

- And Robert Harris.
- Yes, it is.

I'll coordinate with
the boots on the ground.

Tara, Luke, you take
the crime scene.

Here you go.

Agents, we have two pieces
of surveillance footage

that might be very useful.

First is from Ramona showing
her listing to the client.

Feed cuts out right
before the guy gets on-camera.

What's the second one?

It's from that camera up there.

Same thing.

Is this guy just lucky?

How can two cameras go out
the moment we should see him?

This UnSub has used

signal-jamming
technology before.

We think he has a
background in high tech.

He knows how to stay off-camera.

I've been keep tabs
on a certain case

your team has been looking into.

This is Sicarius, right?

All that matters now is that
we find Ramona Havener alive.

Gas tank is empty.

He's had control of her for,
what, over 12 hours now?

About that. Yeah.

Alright, he drove her
to his area of control.

Maybe another container.

Well, that could be upwards
of a 600-mile radius.

That's a lot of ground to cover.

I can start coordinating
with other agencies.

Hey, Lieutenant, do
not mention Sicarius.

The fact is, we don't know yet.

Copy you.

W-Where are we going?

Home.

You are going home.

This is a trick, isn't it?

No. No trick.

You've given me what I needed.

I trust you.

So I can let you go.

Wait. What's that?

Just a precaution.

You'll wake up at home,

like Dorothy in Kansas.

Do you trust me?

Do I have a choice?

Are you sure that this
isn't an overreaction?

I-I-I just talked to Ramona.

I hope so.

When we find your wife,
nothing will make me happier

than to tell you it
was all a false alarm,

but right now, we have
to pursue every lead,

w-which is why I want
to show you this.

Do you recognize that man?

No clue. I-I-I mean,
I don't even know

what it is I'm looking at here.

Is this who has Ramona?

He's a suspect.

We're just not sure
if he's our suspect.

Oh. Wait.

It's, uh...
It's not Ramona.

It's her mother.

Oh, uh, Agent Rossi, I...
Please don't get the wrong idea.

I-I just... I don't know what to
say. No, no, no, no. You just...

You helped me to see something
in a way I haven't seen it.

Excuse me.

Okay. Okay, okay,
okay. Hold your horses.

I'm pulling up the footage now.

Uh, okay. Um... Rossi:
It's not a wallet.

He's not trying to
pick his own pocket.

It's a phone.

I mean, maybe.

For some reason, somebody
tried to reach him,

and he ignored that somebody.

Twice.

Now, what's the time
stamp on the footage?

Uh, 9:20 p.m.

Okay. A boss and a
co-worker are out.

They wouldn't call that late.

It could be a wife.

Why wouldn't he want
to talk to his wife?

Because she's getting in
the way of his next murder.

Oh. Alright, do me a favor.

Pull down the cell records

for the tower closest
to that hardware store.

Make a list of all
the missed calls.

Then... Then give me a second
list of the missed calls

originating form the
Pacific Northwest.

You don't like it
when I say this,

but that's gonna take some time.

Penelope, I-I'm not
being mean here.

I-I'm not being bitchy.

This is not the
old, rumpled Rossi

who needs to go into
therapy over his dead wife.

Okay, I'm gonna stop you there.

You actually do need
to go to therapy.

But this is where I
say I need more time,

you say we don't have any time,
and then I save the day anyway.

How about that? It's
like you know me.

Love you. Mean it.

Thanks.

Of the two kill kits that
were never recovered,

acid and strangulation

were the two MOs that
we were looking for.

So which one did Sicarius
hide out here in Indio?

Well, to try and answer that,
we went back to the beginning,

to the Dark Web message boards.

The ones where Sicarius was
holding his "auditions"?

The very same.

After that, we cross-referenced

with some messages Tyler
Green had intercepted.

And one alias stands out.

"ForgetMeKnots."

Jesus. That damn
name says it all.

ForgetMeKnots refers
to his disdain

for the "City of Festivals."

which is also a nickname
for the city of Indio.

Apparently, this particular
incel-leaning UnSub

has a deep-seated compulsion

to squeeze the life
out of any woman

he deems to be too
"high and mighty."

And he also makes reference

to a previous "crime
and punishment."

What you're describing
sounds like a case

from some years back.

Guy named Arthur Kiel

tried to hang his
grandmother in her backyard.

He got sent away for
second-degree attempted murder.

Served three years.

Got out on parole
five years ago.

The guy still lives in Indio?

He sure does. Sending
you his info now.

We better check
in with Mr. Kiel.

All
units, please be advised.

10-65. Missing person
is Ramona Havener.

Caucasian. Female. 30s.

Last seen at 3673 2nd Street.

What did I tell
you about calling?

You gave me damaged goods.

What are you talking about?

The entire Indio
police department

is on the street
looking for her.

No, that... that's impossible.

Turn on a police scanner.

Okay, Arthur, listen to me.

I need you to get rid of her

and then get out of
town for a while.

Do you hear me?

I do.

Shh, shh.

If you try to pull your arms in
to take the rope off your neck,

it's gonna choke you.

Unless, of course, you'd
prefer to end things quick.

But waiting it out
won't work, either.

Because, eventually, your legs
are gonna give out on you.

And you're gonna hang yourself.

That's a damn shame.

I'm gonna miss the whole thing.

Hey,
is that our guy?

That is our suspect.
He has a hostage.

Do not open fire.

Hey! Freeze! FBI!

Arthur! Listen to me!

Sicarius wants you
to kill yourself.

By your hand or mine.

He's counting on
you to be a patsy,

but you're smarter
than that, Arthur.

You have a way out,

and it starts with you
putting the gun down.

Don't.

Penelope, is it
possible to geo-locate

the last location of
Ramona Havener's phone?

No. The SIM card was
disabled, so I can't do that.

Does this Arthur Kiel have
any alternate residences?

Kiel was financially unstable
after that prison stint,

and I don't see any
properties in his name.

Still, Sicarius would make sure

that Kiel was using
somewhere discreet.

Okay, what about this?

Kiel's grandparents had an
industrial fabrication company.

It went bust a couple years ago.

Building was
condemned last year.

It's just sitting there
all spooky and empty.

Luke, Tara, go check it out.

Yeah.

Ramona, we got
you. Okay, we got you.

We clear? Are we clear?

Clear. Clear.Okay. Okay.

Okay, Ramona, we got you.

Hang tight.

She's not breathing.

There's no heartbeat.

Come on, Ramona, stay with us.

Come on. Hey.

Hey. There you
go. There you go.

Breathe. Just breathe.

Breathe.

Ultrasound to radiation.
Ultrasound to radiation.

I never thought
I'd see you again.

I love you so much.

I love you, too, so much.

Wheelchair to admission.
Wheelchair to admission.

Excuse me.

I'm, uh... I'm so sorry.

Ramona, would you
be able to identify

the man that kidnapped you?

Does... Does she have
to do that right now?

The sooner we get
a sketch out there,

the sooner we can
catch this guy.

It isn't you
who should be afraid.

It's your husband.
It's your children.

Because if it's not me,

it'll be someone else
who comes to hurt them.

Ramona?

Did you see his face?

No.

No, I didn't.

Penelope? Garcia: Hello,
you beautiful creature.

I found the cellphone tower

by the hardware
store in Chattanooga.

I have compiled
a list of numbers

that pinged off of
that cellphone tower

in a nine-minute window.

Y-You can't narrow
that down more?

Amazingly, I can't.

I'm vexed about it,
but the time signature

from the surveillance
video itself

is off plus-or-minus
four minutes,

so there's a very thick window,

but it's the narrowest
I can give you,

and I e-mailed it
to you just now.

And you were able
to identify calls

from the Pacific Northwest?

Yes, which I took to be the
official mapping of calls

originating from Oregon,
Idaho, Washington.

And what does that
leave us with?

I believe the scientific term is
a bazillion names and numbers.

Uh, alright. No problem.

Thanks. Great work.

Hey. Dave's joining us, Emily.

Without Ramona Havener's
full cooperation,

I can't go back to
the Attorney General

and just expect her to reopen
the Sicarius investigation.

I just think we need
to give her more time.

He obviously threatened
her family's safety.

Yeah. We can't just wait.

I mean, why don't we go
back to Rockville, Maryland?

I mean, that's where our
last missing kill kit was.

Good idea. You guys
should go back there.

W-Wait, you're not coming?

Penelope said she put
together a list of names

and addresses of people
in the Pacific Northwest,

one of whom may
have called Sicarius

while he was in
that hardware store.

She did. It's a long list.

So, here's my plan...

Catch a commercial
flight up north

and try to get a lead on
somebody who knows this guy.

Maybe a family member.

What, you're gonna
go door-to-door?

That's right. Old school.

Hey.

Isn't this your old bat?

The one that's
been beside our bed

in every place we've ever lived?

That's the one and only.

Huh.

Henry had it under his bed.

Since when? I don't know.

Do you think he's scared?

I think he's starting
to figure things out.

We got company.

Who's Dr. Harvey?

An oncologist.

I thought you said
Dad wasn't sick, Mom.

You lied. I-I
didn't... I didn't lie.

We... We don't have
all the answers,

which makes it harder to know
when to share and how much.

Well, I'd rather know something
than just imagine the worst.

We're sorry, buddy.

Look, I'm sorry. I-I
didn't want to tell you

because I didn't
want you to worry.

And I was right.

But I should've known
you could handle it.

So no radiation?

Chemotherapy?

No, none of that.

I'm okay.

Come here.

What's the deal with the bat?

Protection.

From?

Sicarius.

You and Dad talk about him.

He killed a senator, and
your team's chasing him.

Agents were injured
in an explosion.

Was that you?

Um, it... it was,
but I'm... I'm fine.

Since he has it out for the
FBI, how do you know we're safe?

"Has
it out for the FBI"?

That's what it says online.

Okay.

Um, yeah, that's... That's
not the whole story.

Then tell me.

There's... There's
not a lot I can share.

Well, I need to know
something, or...

You'll imagine the worst.

By the way, you guys
are terrible liars.

Did you know you have tells?

Okay, what do you
know about "tells"?

Huh?

Hello? Elias: Hey. It's me.

Aren't you gonna say anything?

No. I'm not the one who should
be doing the talking right now.

H-How are the girls?

Well, um, it's been 10 days,

10 days since you walked
out of this house,

no phone call, no text, nothing.

You know what I
did this weekend?

I Googled your name,
followed by the word "dead."

And as terrified as I
was to find something,

at least that would make sense.

At least I'd know.

It's not fair, is it?

The way I've been treating you.

No. It's not.

Is it over?

'Cause that's another thing

that's been keeping
me up at night,

is the thought that you're
just never gonna come home.

So...

is it?

Just say it.

No. No, it's not over.

Then why are you doing this?

Who are you?

Honestly, I don't
even know anymore.

But I do know that I have
a lot I need to tell you.

And I know that I can't keep
secrets from you anymore.

So can I come home, please?

Elias, I never told you to go.

I'll be home tonight.

Hello. I'm David
Rossi with the FBI.

May I ask you a few questions?
