Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders (2016–2017): Season 2, Episode 10 - Type A - full transcript
The team gets an atypical request from Taiwan to investigate several murders following the MO of a Brooklyn serial killer, who also frustrated Clara's study buddy. It turns out he probably wasn't inactive for years but traveled around the Pacific. He's clever enough to escape a Taipeh police trap, but the mysterious link between victims is found: a dating website for professionals with a typical profile that somehow triggers his deep trauma. Combined with a New York past, that allows profiling.
Over 68 million Americans
leave the safety
of our borders every year.
If danger strikes,
the FBI's
International Response Team
is called into action.
♪♪
This garden is very
special to me.
It's what I missed the most
about Taipei when I was
traveling abroad.
I can see why.
Do you mind if we speak
in English?
It helps me to practice.
Of course not,
and your English is very good.
You sure you're not
really from Brooklyn?
Now you're teasing me.
Something I've picked up
living in the U.S.
New Yorkers call it
"busting chops."
Busting chops?
Yes, but don't ask me
what it means.
Oh. You're so
calm and comfortable.
The exact opposite
of my ex-husband.
He never could understand
why I chose to work
rather than be stuck
at home.
Stuck?
Yes, you know,
stay-at-home mom.
I mean, I love my kids,
but I am still entitled
to live a life of my own,
don't you think?
Let me buy us some drinks.
Okay.
Xie-xie.
♪♪
Cheers.
Thank you.
This is mine.
I really had a wonderful time.
Thank you.
You've been very kind...
and honest.
I...I don't...
Oh, you probably drank
something you shouldn't have.
Oh!
♪♪
Sorry, it's not your fault.
It's how you were raised.
There is no backing out now.
I'm not trying to back out.
I'm just saying maybe
we should reschedule.
Come on, Monty. You and I
both know that
that is not gonna happen.
Why not? There were no set rules
to how it should go down.
Au contraire, mon frère.
You guys ready for tonight?
Yes.
No.
Stout and Pint. 8:00. Sharp.
You have no idea how much I've
been looking forward to this.
Look, why don't I just give
you both $20,
and we call it even?
That was not the bet.
I know, but...
Monty, you lost the bet,
remember?
Yes, I remember, and I will
never, ever again
question your knowledge
on the "Fast and Furious"
franchise.
Look, you act like I'm asking
for a pound of flesh.
I would be willing
to negotiate that
in lieu of singing karaoke
tonight.
Do not be a baby.
You're gonna be fine.
We've been practicing.
No -- Yes, really?
Mm-hmm. Two words.
Kenny. Dolly.
That's right.
This is getting real.
"Islands in the Stream."
There won't be any video,
right?
No, not that you're aware of.
It's time to face
the music, my friend.
That's right.
I'm gonna go
drop these reports off,
then I am home to shower,
shampoo, and shine.
Clara. Hey.
Emily, what brings you
to the seventh floor?
Lisa Sojourn.
Oh, I haven't heard
that name in years.
Poor girl had her whole
life ahead of her
before that monster
took it.
I still can't believe
he hasn't been caught.
Well, I just might have
found him.
Communication addressed
to the B.A.U.
came across my desk
this morning.
It was sent
by Inspector Jin Taan
of the Taipei Ministry
of Criminal Investigations.
In the last 12 days, he's had
two unusual murders,
which may be linked
to one of the cases
in the B.A.U.'s Zero Files.
Our victims,
Lynn Zhou and Yian Chen,
were posed in the same
specific display --
office building, knife through
the heart, flower in the lap.
Then why the purple orchid?
Is this homage to --
The Vinegar Hill Slayer.
The B.A.U. hunted him in 2001.
He killed four women
in the Vinegar Hill section
of Brooklyn, New York.
All four of his victims
were publicly displayed,
knife in the heart,
flower in the lap.
Precisely the same way
these women in Taipei were.
At the time
of the New York murders,
I was working as an intern
at the U.N.
As was I.
Oh, I didn't realize you guys
went back that far.
Indeed, we do.
In fact, we knew
one of the Vinegar Hill victims.
She was a translator
for the U.N.
Her name was Lisa Sojourn.
Lisa, Clara, and I,
some other girls
would go out after work
and drink, dance, meet boys.
All that stopped
after Lisa's death.
The preliminary investigation
didn't lead
to more substantive action.
It was reclassified as
a Zero File
because the B.A.U.'s efforts
were interrupted
by the September 11th attacks.
Right, when the FBI's
top priority became terrorism.
16 years is an awfully long
period of dormancy.
Could it be a copycat?
It's possible,
but the purple orchid
was a detail that was
never made public.
Did the B.A.U. establish
an operating theory at the time?
It was incomplete,
but the profile indicated
a male, late teens to early 20s,
native to New York,
sophisticated
but with significant
anger issues toward women.
Ordinarily, we go to help
American victims
of crime overseas,
but in this case,
it looks like we may be looking
at an American killing abroad.
From four kills in six months
to two murders in two weeks --
that means the killings
are accelerating.
So we need to stop this UnSub
before he kills again.
♪♪
A Taiwanese proverb says,
"Do good, reap good.
Do evil, reap evil."
You ready to roll?
Oops, sorry, Clara,
I didn't know you were...
No, it's okay.
Um, I was just...
remembering my friend, Lisa.
It's hard to believe
how much time has passed.
Life has a way of doing that.
Yeah, but at least we have
a life.
You know, Lisa's was --
was cut short
before it even had
a chance to start.
Seems like you have
some good memories of her.
Yeah, I do.
If you could have known Lisa,
she --
She was this...
breath of fresh air.
She could talk to anyone.
She could wear
just about anything.
And she loved
to go juking.
Juking?
It's dancing.
Ah.
She was from Georgia,
so that's what she called it.
But...many a times,
we would juke
until the morning
sun came up.
I'll bet you did.
And she had this laugh,
it was...
It was contagious.
And when Lisa got going,
you knew eventually
you were gonna end up
on the floor
right next to her.
I miss that.
I miss her.
I just wanna honor her,
you know, and her memory.
I think you just did.
Thank you.
♪♪
I think the only way
to really honor her
is to catch this killer
who took her life.
And we will.
♪♪
The murders of Lynn Zhou
and Yian Chen
are a tragic stain
on the fabric of Taipei.
Inspector Jin, I'd like
to apologize
for the horror and dishonor
caused by a suspect
the FBI believes may be
an infamous American killer.
Or someone copying
those atrocities.
Your kindness is appreciated,
and please be assured
of our utmost commitment
to your endeavors here.
Thank you. My team and I have
reviewed the prior case file
and the autopsy report
on the first victim.
Has an autopsy been performed
yet on the second victim,
Yian Chen?
No, not as of yet.
Well, if it's all right
with you,
Agent Jarvis is on our jet
and is equipped
to conduct the autopsy there.
That would be most convenient.
I'll make the arrangements.
I would also like
to interview Yian Chen's family.
I can give you a ride.
My car's right over here.
Great.
This is a heavily trafficked
business area.
The UnSub had to have timed
this precisely
to stage the body out here
without being observed.
Displaying the victim
in public is significant
to the UnSub's ritual,
just like in New York,
but the B.A.U. never determined
what it meant.
We need to figure out
what the UnSub's trying to say
and to whom.
Six victims
in two very different countries
suggests divergent comfort zones
a half a world apart,
which is very unusual,
unless we're talking
about a copycat here, right?
Yeah, possibly, or perhaps
it speaks to the UnSub
being at home in both countries.
Maybe a dual citizen.
Hey, boss.
Monty, I need you to compile
visa entries
for people who were living
in New York in 2001
during the killings there
who are now living in Taiwan.
It's not gonna be
a small list.
Well, if your job was easy,
anyone could do it.
Flattery will get you
everywhere.
All right, I'm on it.
In New York,
the UnSub's hunting ground
was a fairly compact
neighborhood,
just a dozen blocks or so.
Closer look at the victims here
should tell us
where they were abducted.
Well, with that information,
I should have enough
to build a geoprofile.
Let's hope Clara's interview
with the family
can give us the information
we need.
♪♪
They're beautiful.
Like their mother was.
Our daughter's children are now
my greatest priority.
Would you excuse me a moment?
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Thank you.
I do speak English if it would
be easier for you.
Okay.
Look, I know that this isn't
easy for you, Mrs. Lin,
but the more information
that I can gather,
the better chance we have
of finding the person
who did this to your daughter.
I know that Yian
was recently divorced,
but do you know if she was
currently seeing anyone?
Out of respect for me,
Yian kept her personal life
to herself.
Everyone who knew Yian
knew her to be very driven,
especially with regard
to her career.
Ultimately,
her personal life suffered.
But recently, I believe
that began to change.
What made you think that?
Oh, she would tell me
she had been called back
to her office some evenings,
but I knew she wasn't
telling me everything.
She always dressed well,
but on these occasions,
she would be prettier,
happier when she came home.
Did you notice anything
different about her behavior
on those days?
Well, she would go
on her computer
right before she left.
Do you have
that computer here?
Yes. It's in her bedroom.
I'll show you.
There's no evidence
of a struggle
or visible signs of trauma.
I gotta say that
these Taiwanese killings
seem surprisingly humane
compared to the ones
in New York.
"Humane" is
an interesting word choice.
What I mean is those victims
didn't suffer.
They died peacefully.
Those victims in New York --
I mean, it was blunt force
trauma, throat slashed.
Are you saying you think
this is another killer?
I'm not sure.
I mean, these victims appear
to have been incapacitated,
probably drugged.
But like in the other cases,
the stabbing of the heart
was performed postmortem --
part of the UnSub's signature.
But taking a closer look,
there actually might be enough
to link this murder
to the prior cases.
And that link would be?
Well, the other autopsy reports
all give very specific details
about how the knife
was inserted into the victims,
but none of those details were
ever released to the public.
Blade entry angled upward
from below
and to the left of the sternum.
Penetrating the lower left
ventricle, edge downward,
and twisted clockwise
one-quarter turn.
The C.O.D. may be different,
but these stabbings
are identical.
This is no copycat.
What did you find
on Yian's computer?
It's not there.
I could have sworn it was.
Perhaps it's at her office.
That's where we go next.
Listen, we're gonna do
everything in our power
to find the person
responsible for this.
♪♪
♪♪
♪♪
I understand you had
a friend back in New York
who was also a victim.
Agent Seger? You okay?
You know, I, um, I try to remain
impartial during investigations
so my personal feelings
don't blur my judgment,
but sometimes that is
hard to do.
Okay.
As in New York,
all of the victims here
are not only physically similar,
but they're also professional
women with careers and families.
So was Yian Chen looking
for love
just like the other two?
Our society
is a difficult place
for divorced women with children
to live in.
You know, housing, jobs --
these women are too often
ostracized.
Listen, there is
a big difference
between being ostracized
and getting killed.
I mean, what made Yian
so different?
We get her computer,
we're gonna get some answers.
So our lovely and talented
B.A.U. counterpart and I
dug deeper into the UnSub's
mysterious hiatus.
-You found something?
-Yeah, the victims in Taiwan
didn't flag
on the B.A.U.'s Interpol query
because Taiwan doesn't share
an Interpol database.
So if Prentiss hadn't
been contacted
by Inspector Jian, we might
never have known.
Yes, well, which inspired us
to conduct
an open-source
intelligence review
of all print
and broadcast media
in non-Interpol countries.
We found seven other murders
with the same M.O. in seven
Pacific Rim countries,
none of which are part
of Interpol.
So each of them thought
the killing in their country
was an isolated case,
not part of a serial event.
Bingo.
If the UnSub has
only killed once
in each of those countries,
but has already killed
twice in Taiwan,
that means his presence here
signifies something special.
Hey, guys.
So the tox panel on our vic
shows the prescription drug
Midazolam,
which is a benzodiazepine.
It's a central nervous system
depressant.
So how common is that?
It's not exactly rare.
It's prescribed to treat
insomnia and seizures.
In its intravenous form,
it's used
for procedural sedation.
Monty, check prescriptions
in Taipei
for the drug Midazolam
against your visa search
for people living in New York
in 2001
and residing in Taiwan now.
I'm on it, boss.
♪♪
The UnSub may have accelerated
his killing tempo in Taiwan
because like New York,
he feels at home here.
Well, there's definitely
a contradiction
between the violence
in his early kills
and the lack of it now.
I mean, he has gotten
less violent over time.
Well, maybe he's been
perfecting his methodology.
Certainly not
his coping mechanism
when it comes to women.
He seems to have
no intention of stopping.
We need to get ahead of him,
find out how
he's targeting his victims.
♪♪
♪♪
You're late.
I'm sorry.
I was scared.
You have nothing to
be afraid of.
I won't let anyone hurt us.
♪♪
Inspector Jin found Yian Chen's
computer at her office.
On it was a history
of an online dating site
that both victims
were members of.
"Taipei Twine is an online
dating and matchmaking service
"that offers professionals
a unique dating experience
"that doesn't require
users to post pictures.
"Instead, drawing potential
couples together
for deeper relationships..."
"Based on profile,
personalities, and promises,
not shallow infatuation
based solely on looks."
Well, makes sense
that professionals would use
a more discreet online site
to seek potential lovers.
Yeah, our UnSub would certainly
prefer that sort of anonymity.
So he lured these women
to their death
with the promise of love?
No, there's something
these particular women
had in common that keyed
our UnSub to choose them.
Yeah, well, both Yian Chen
and Lynn Zhou
described themselves
the exact same way --
divorced, working mom,
young kids.
So our UnSub offered to play
the role
of supportive husband
and stepfather?
Looks like Yian was contacted
by Tom Wu
two days before her death.
I got a match.
Tom Wu reached out to Lynn
the night before she was killed.
Tom Wu's online profile
describes him as
a financial professional
seeking marriage and children.
Well, looks like Tom's got
a third victim on the hook --
a woman named Sara Yee.
He scheduled a date
with her...
right now
at a Hao Ban restaurant.
All right, Clara and I
will head to the restaurant.
Simmons and Mae, you two
check out Tom Wu's home address.
If there's a crime scene there,
secure it.

I'm very, very sorry
for being so clumsy.
I ordered you

That's okay.

You didn't have to.
I thought you were
ready to leave.
One last round
before we go.
Gan bei.
Cheers.
♪♪
Our UnSub's gonna want
a secluded spot,
away from prying eyes.
He'll also want
a quick path of egress
from his table.
I understand,
but I already have three
of my plainclothes officers
inside,
and they have
his driver's license.
That's not a good idea.
Is everything okay?

He pulled the fire alarm.
Your officers just got made.

He drugged her.
Sara? Hi. Hi.
Sara, my name's Clara.

The UnSub's in the wind.
We just took away
his next victim.
He's gonna find another one soon
and kill again.
It's okay.
♪♪
♪♪
Sara, do you think you're able
to talk with us now?
Yes.
Did anything strike you
different about Tom?
Not...really.
What did you guys talk about?
Dating,
which led
to more serious topics --
marriage, my kids, my job.
Then what happened?
I was telling him
about my hectic work schedule,
my long days, then...
he spilled my drink.
He apologized profusely,
then I went to the restroom
and cleaned up,
and when I returned...
Tom had gotten you
a fresh drink.
Yes.
He had.
You think Tom drugged me.
♪♪
What else do you remember?
The last thing I remember
is that Tom whispered
something like...
Sorry. It's not your fault.
It's how you were raised.
♪♪
Oh. I thought I knew
all your looks.
I don't know this one.
I don't like it.
I was just
within arm's reach
of the man who killed my friend
16 years ago.
You know, it took me
a long time to face the fact
that some cases
will never be solved.
But this one --
I want this one so bad.
We're gonna get him.
You know we will.
You and I both know
we can't guarantee that.
He was right there.
Last week, he was a ghost,
and now...
He was right there.
Hey, hey.
What does Monty always say
to people's loved ones?
We're the best in the world
at getting these kind of guys.
Aren't we?
We're gonna get him.
Thank you.
Mae and I just got back
from the address
associated with Tom Wu's
Taipei Twine profile. No luck.
Yeah, we did find
a very pleasant
but confused elderly couple.
Yeah, I'm not surprised.
The Tom Wu who registered
with that site
has been dead for two months.
His profile, however,
is very much alive.
Turns out he had a date
six days ago
in between the killings
of Lynn Zhou and Yian Chen.
-Is she missing?
-No. Her name is Mary Gau.
She's at work. I'm sending you
her address now.
Clara and I will pay Mary Gau
a visit,
see what happened on her date.
Guys, she could be
the key to finding this guy
before he kills again.
We don't think the UnSub's
gonna flee the country
now that he knows
we're on to him?
Driven, motivated, and violent?
In my experience,
UnSubs with this level
of psychopathy double down.
His need to kill will overwhelm
any reason
that would compel
a normal person to stop.
Jack, you're more right
than you know.
Another body was just found.
♪♪
Yu-Ting Mèng, 32, single.
She was senior administrator
for the transit authority.
Professional women,
slender build, dark hair.
Just the UnSub's type.
Yeah. Looks like the UnSub
found the closest woman
to his victim type
and improvised from there.
He cut her hair.
Yep, looks like
a blitz attack.
He certainly didn't take
the time to charm her.
No. This kill was done
out of necessity,
but he did take the time
to place the purple orchid
in her lap.
Is there any way
we can trace its origin?
In Taiwan, breeding orchids
is a mass production business.
Well, given the blood,
I would say
that the stab wound
is definitely the C.O.D.
The key aspect for this UnSub
throughout his kill history
has been the ritual displaying
of the body, is it not?
Yeah. His compulsion to kill
comes secondary
to his need to display
his victims,
but he didn't take the time
to deliver the full message here
by properly displaying it.
Yet he hastily chopped
the victim's hair
because he didn't want
to vary from his physical type?
Maybe it's not
a physical type.
Maybe it's a specific woman.
And the question is -- who?
Well, Mary Gau, the woman who
survived her date with Tom Wu,
said she got the impression
he wasn't really interested
in kids.
Curious.
Mr. Wu listed having children
as one
of his profile preferences.
Yeah, but once Mary mentioned
having to leave
to go home and tuck
her kids in bed,
he basically became a jerk
from that point on.
So what it is about
a woman cherishing her children
that turns
this particular UnSub off?
Maybe he suffered a past trauma
related to having children.
Maybe, but I think it hits
closer to home for him.
I think our UnSub's trigger
is something in his childhood,
something...that he
experienced firsthand
which he never recovered from.
Any luck?
Maybe.
Okay.
So this map shows
the abduction and dump sites
for the three murder victims
as well as the attempts
for the two survivors,
Sara Yee and Mary Gau.
Now the abductions
form a small circle here
in the Shilin District
on the north side of Taipei,
and the bodies
were displayed here
in the Xindian District
in the south.
So this narrow stem here
in between the two districts
is where I think
the UnSub's anchor point is.
Zhongzheng District.
This is the heart
of our UnSub's comfort zone --
the place where the murders
likely occurred.
What do you got, Mae?
Okay, so Monty and I have
compiled a list of Midazolam
purchasers in Taipei
who also spent time
in New York in 2001, and...
Total of eight people
fit that bill.
Three of those names
in that list
fall within
the UnSub's comfort zone --
Jason Lu, Jane Yang,
and Natalie Huang.
I'm sending you
the addresses now.
Let's divide and conquer.
♪♪
Michael,

This is just like New York.

That's what you promised me.
I'm almost ready.

Let me see your hands.
Ma'am, show me your hands.

Please, raise your hands, ma'am.
I think we just found Natalie.
Hey, Jack.
Nothing on
the other two addresses.
You two have any luck?
Well, we almost hit
the jackpot.
Unfortunately,
our UnSub got away,
and his place is empty,
except for a very lifelike
silicone sex doll
who happens to look
a lot like Natalie Huang.
Well, sex dolls
are much more common
in this part of the world,
but --
Yeah, but this doll seems
to be...
taking the place
of Natalie Huang.
We also found his lair --
some knives, purple orchids,
and a lot of blood.
Yeah, and enough Midazolam
to sedate a herd of horses,
and all the scrips are
in Natalie Huang's name.
All this suggests
our UnSub might have had
a relationship with Natalie,
but then killed her
in order to take advantage
of her identity.
Have Taan's men secure
that scene.
Let's regroup back here.
We're gonna need Monty
to dig deeper
into Natalie Huang's
personal history.
♪♪
♪♪
So Natalie Huang's
family history
is a colorful one.
Yeah, her dad died
when she was young,
leaving behind Natalie,
her older brother, Michael,
and their mother, Helen,
who were all U.S. citizens
living in New York at the time.
In 2001, things got a bit heated
for the Huangs
when Division of Family Services
received an abuse
and neglect complaint.
Right, that's when Natalie
and her mother,
who had been
a corporate executive,
uprooted and moved to Taiwan,
but Michael stayed in Brooklyn
to attend
a boarding high school.
But shortly after arriving
in Taipei,
15-year-old Natalie
committed suicide.
Here's the kicker.
She stabbed herself with
a kitchen knife in the heart.
And the purple orchid
was Natalie's favorite flower.
Seems that her mother kept
a fresh supply
in the house at all times.
So each of these murders looks
just like Natalie's suicide,
but what happened
to her brother?
Monty, have you found records
indicating that Michael Huang
traveled to Taiwan
or any of the other countries
the UnSub killed in?
Negative, Jack. He seems
to have fallen off the radar.
Death records come up blank,
too.
We know our UnSub's been
killing under an assumed name.
Perhaps Michael Huang traveled
here under an assumed identity?
Makes sense.
You know, if Michael
is our UnSub,
it's quite possible that
all of this violence
is focused solely
on his mother.
I mean, think about
what Sara Yee told us
he whispered to her --
"It's not your fault.
It's how you were raised."
So you think Michael
blames his mother
for his sister's suicide?
That would explain why it's
so important for him
to display the bodies
on the outside of the buildings.
Right, because staging them
there would act
as a symbolic gesture
against his mother's work.
Okay, get this.
Mrs. Huang definitely had
behavioral issues with her son.
Turns out Michael was the source
of those neglect complaints
wherein he alleged
that his mother
had abandoned him
and his sister.
Well, it looks like D.F.S.
did a full investigation
and declared all those
allegations were unfounded.
Right, but in Michael's
deluded frame of mind,
he considered himself a victim
of his mother's neglect.
Sounds like the kind of trauma
that could be a trigger
even though his perception of it
was fabricated.
Hey, Jack, check this out.
Helen Huang, circa 2001.
Seems pretty clear who
his victims represent.
They were all surrogates
for Mom.
But if the allegations

I still can't believe

Well, I just might have
found him.
Communication addressed
to the B.A.U.
came across my desk
this morning.
It was sent
by Inspector Jin Taan
of the Taipei Ministry
of Criminal Investigations.
In the last 12 days, he's had
two unusual murders,
which may be linked
to one of the cases
in the B.A.U.'s Zero Files.
Our victims,
Lynn Zhou and Yian Chen,
were posed in the same
specific display --
office building, knife through
the heart, flower in the lap.
Then why the purple orchid?
Is this homage to --
The Vinegar Hill Slayer.
The B.A.U. hunted him in 2001.
He killed four women
in the Vinegar Hill section
of Brooklyn, New York.
All four of his victims
were publicly displayed,
knife in the heart,
flower in the lap.
Precisely the same way
these women in Taipei were.
At the time
of the New York murders,
I was working as an intern
at the U.N.
As was I.
Oh, I didn't realize you guys
went back that far.
Indeed, we do.
In fact, we knew
one of the Vinegar Hill victims.
She was a translator
for the U.N.
Her name was Lisa Sojourn.
Lisa, Clara, and I,
some other girls
would go out after work
and drink, dance, meet boys.
All that stopped
after Lisa's death.
The preliminary investigation
didn't lead
to more substantive action.
It was reclassified as
a Zero File
because the B.A.U.'s efforts
were interrupted
by the September 11th attacks.
Right, when the FBI's
top priority became terrorism.
16 years is an awfully long
period of dormancy.
Could it be a copycat?
It's possible,
but the purple orchid
was a detail that was
never made public.
Did the B.A.U. establish
an operating theory at the time?
It was incomplete,
but the profile indicated
a male, late teens to early 20s,
native to New York,
sophisticated
but with significant
anger issues toward women.
Ordinarily, we go to help
American victims
of crime overseas,
but in this case,
it looks like we may be looking
at an American killing abroad.
From four kills in six months
to two murders in two weeks --
that means the killings
are accelerating.
So we need to stop this UnSub
before he kills again.

The murders of Lynn Zhou
and Yian Chen
are a tragic stain
on the fabric of Taipei.
Inspector Jin, I'd like
to apologize
for the horror and dishonor
caused by a suspect
the FBI believes may be
an infamous American killer.
Or someone copying
those atrocities.
Your kindness is appreciated,
and please be assured
of our utmost commitment
to your endeavors here.
Thank you. My team and I have
reviewed the prior case file
and the autopsy report
on the first victim.
Has an autopsy been performed
yet on the second victim,
Yian Chen?
No, not as of yet.
Well, if it's all right
with you,
Agent Jarvis is on our jet
and is equipped
to conduct the autopsy there.
That would be most convenient.
I'll make the arrangements.
I would also like
to interview Yian Chen's family.
I can give you a ride.
My car's right over here.
Great.
This is a heavily trafficked
business area.
The UnSub had to have timed
this precisely
to stage the body out here
without being observed.
Displaying the victim
in public is significant
to the UnSub's ritual,
just like in New York,
but the B.A.U. never determined
what it meant.
We need to figure out
what the UnSub's trying to say
and to whom.
Six victims
in two very different countries
suggests divergent comfort zones
a half a world apart,
which is very unusual,
unless we're talking
about a copycat here, right?
Yeah, possibly, or perhaps
it speaks to the UnSub
being at home in both countries.
Maybe a dual citizen.
Hey, boss.
Monty, I need you to compile
visa entries
for people who were living
in New York in 2001
during the killings there
who are now living in Taiwan.
It's not gonna be

Well, if your job was easy,
anyone could do it.
Flattery will get you

All right, I'm on it.
In New York,
the UnSub's hunting ground
was a fairly compact
neighborhood,
just a dozen blocks or so.
Closer look at the victims here
should tell us
where they were abducted.
Well, with that information,
I should have enough
to build a geoprofile.
Let's hope Clara's interview
with the family
can give us the information
we need.

They're beautiful.
Like their mother was.
Our daughter's children are now
my greatest priority.
Would you excuse me a moment?
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Thank you.
I do speak English if it would
be easier for you.
Okay.
Look, I know that this isn't
easy for you, Mrs. Lin,
but the more information
that I can gather,
the better chance we have
of finding the person
who did this to your daughter.
I know that Yian
was recently divorced,
but do you know if she was
currently seeing anyone?
Out of respect for me,
Yian kept her personal life
to herself.
Everyone who knew Yian
knew her to be very driven,
especially with regard
to her career.
Ultimately,
her personal life suffered.
But recently, I believe
that began to change.
What made you think that?
Oh, she would tell me
she had been called back
to her office some evenings,
but I knew she wasn't
telling me everything.
She always dressed well,
but on these occasions,
she would be prettier,
happier when she came home.
Did you notice anything
different about her behavior
on those days?
Well, she would go
on her computer
right before she left.
Do you have
that computer here?
Yes. It's in her bedroom.
I'll show you.
There's no evidence
of a struggle
or visible signs of trauma.
I gotta say that
these Taiwanese killings
seem surprisingly humane
compared to the ones
in New York.
"Humane" is
an interesting word choice.
What I mean is those victims
didn't suffer.
They died peacefully.
Those victims in New York --
I mean, it was blunt force
trauma, throat slashed.
Are you saying you think
this is another killer?
I'm not sure.
I mean, these victims appear
to have been incapacitated,
probably drugged.
But like in the other cases,
the stabbing of the heart
was performed postmortem --
part of the UnSub's signature.
But taking a closer look,
there actually might be enough
to link this murder
to the prior cases.
And that link would be?
Well, the other autopsy reports
all give very specific details
about how the knife
was inserted into the victims,
but none of those details were
ever released to the public.
Blade entry angled upward
from below
and to the left of the sternum.
Penetrating the lower left
ventricle, edge downward,
and twisted clockwise
one-quarter turn.
The C.O.D. may be different,
but these stabbings
are identical.
This is no copycat.
What did you find
on Yian's computer?
It's not there.
I could have sworn it was.
Perhaps it's at her office.
That's where we go next.
Listen, we're gonna do
everything in our power
to find the person
responsible for this.

I understand you had
a friend back in New York
who was also a victim.
Agent Seger? You okay?
You know, I, um, I try to remain
impartial during investigations
so my personal feelings
don't blur my judgment,
but sometimes that is
hard to do.
Okay.
As in New York,
all of the victims here
are not only physically similar,
but they're also professional
women with careers and families.
So was Yian Chen looking
for love
just like the other two?
Our society
is a difficult place
for divorced women with children
to live in.
You know, housing, jobs --
these women are too often
ostracized.
Listen, there is
a big difference
between being ostracized
and getting killed.
I mean, what made Yian
so different?
We get her computer,
we're gonna get some answers.
So our lovely and talented
B.A.U. counterpart and I
dug deeper into the UnSub's
mysterious hiatus.
-You found something?
-Yeah, the victims in Taiwan
didn't flag
on the B.A.U.'s Interpol query
because Taiwan doesn't share
an Interpol database.
So if Prentiss hadn't
been contacted
by Inspector Jian, we might
never have known.
Yes, well, which inspired us
to conduct
an open-source
intelligence review
of all print
and broadcast media
in non-Interpol countries.
We found seven other murders
with the same M.O. in seven
Pacific Rim countries,
none of which are part
of Interpol.
So each of them thought
the killing in their country
was an isolated case,
not part of a serial event.
Bingo.
If the UnSub has
only killed once
in each of those countries,
but has already killed
twice in Taiwan,
that means his presence here
signifies something special.
Hey, guys.
So the tox panel on our vic
shows the prescription drug
Midazolam,
which is a benzodiazepine.
It's a central nervous system
depressant.
So how common is that?
It's not exactly rare.
It's prescribed to treat
insomnia and seizures.
In its intravenous form,
it's used
for procedural sedation.
Monty, check prescriptions
in Taipei
for the drug Midazolam
against your visa search
for people living in New York
in 2001
and residing in Taiwan now.
I'm on it, boss.

The UnSub may have accelerated
his killing tempo in Taiwan
because like New York,
he feels at home here.
Well, there's definitely
a contradiction
between the violence
in his early kills
and the lack of it now.
I mean, he has gotten
less violent over time.
Well, maybe he's been
perfecting his methodology.
Certainly not
his coping mechanism

no intention of stopping.

Inspector Jin found Yian Chen's
computer at her office.
On it was a history
of an online dating site
that both victims
were members of.
"Taipei Twine is an online

"that offers professionals
a unique dating experience
"that doesn't require
users to post pictures.
"Instead, drawing potential
couples together
for deeper relationships..."
"Based on profile,
personalities, and promises,
not shallow infatuation
based solely on looks."
Well, makes sense
that professionals would use
a more discreet online site
to seek potential lovers.
Yeah, our UnSub would certainly
prefer that sort of anonymity.
So he lured these women
to their death
with the promise of love?
No, there's something
these particular women
had in common that keyed
our UnSub to choose them.
Yeah, well, both Yian Chen
and Lynn Zhou
described themselves
the exact same way --
divorced, working mom,
young kids.
So our UnSub offered to play
the role
of supportive husband
and stepfather?
Looks like Yian was contacted

In my experience,

any reason
that would compel
a normal person to stop.
Jack, you're more right
than you know.
Another body was just found.

Yu-Ting Mèng, 32, single.
She was senior administrator
for the transit authority.
Professional women,
slender build, dark hair.
Just the UnSub's type.
Yeah. Looks like the UnSub
found the closest woman
to his victim type
and improvised from there.
He cut her hair.
Yep, looks like
a blitz attack.
He certainly didn't take
the time to charm her.
No. This kill was done
out of necessity,
but he did take the time
to place the purple orchid
in her lap.
Is there any way
we can trace its origin?
In Taiwan, breeding orchids
is a mass production business.
Well, given the blood,
I would say
that the stab wound
is definitely the C.O.D.
The key aspect for this UnSub
throughout his kill history
has been the ritual displaying
of the body, is it not?
Yeah. His compulsion to kill
comes secondary
to his need to display
his victims,
but he didn't take the time
to deliver the full message here
by properly displaying it.
Yet he hastily chopped
the victim's hair
because he didn't want
to vary from his physical type?
Maybe it's not
a physical type.
Maybe it's a specific woman.
And the question is -- who?
Well, Mary Gau, the woman who
survived her date with Tom Wu,
said she got the impression
he wasn't really interested
in kids.
Curious.
Mr. Wu listed having children
as one
of his profile preferences.
Yeah, but once Mary mentioned
having to leave
to go home and tuck
her kids in bed,
he basically became a jerk
from that point on.
So what it is about
a woman cherishing her children
that turns
this particular UnSub off?
Maybe he suffered a past trauma
related to having children.
Maybe, but I think it hits
closer to home for him.
I think our UnSub's trigger
is something in his childhood,
something...that he
experienced firsthand
which he never recovered from.
Any luck?
Maybe.
Okay.
So this map shows
the abduction and dump sites
for the three murder victims
as well as the attempts
for the two survivors,
Sara Yee and Mary Gau.
Now the abductions
form a small circle here
in the Shilin District
on the north side of Taipei,
and the bodies
were displayed here
in the Xindian District
in the south.
So this narrow stem here
in between the two districts

Please, raise your hands, ma'am.
I think we just found Natalie.
Hey, Jack.
Nothing on
the other two addresses.
You two have any luck?
Well, we almost hit
the jackpot.
Unfortunately,
our UnSub got away,
and his place is empty,
except for a very lifelike
silicone sex doll
who happens to look
a lot like Natalie Huang.
Well, sex dolls
are much more common
in this part of the world,
but --
Yeah, but this doll seems
to be...
taking the place
of Natalie Huang.
We also found his lair --
some knives, purple orchids,
and a lot of blood.
Yeah, and enough Midazolam
to sedate a herd of horses,
and all the scrips are
in Natalie Huang's name.
All this suggests
our UnSub might have had
a relationship with Natalie,
but then killed her
in order to take advantage
of her identity.
Have Taan's men secure
that scene.
Let's regroup back here.
We're gonna need Monty
to dig deeper
into Natalie Huang's
personal history.
♪♪
♪♪
So Natalie Huang's
family history
is a colorful one.
Yeah, her dad died
when she was young,
leaving behind Natalie,
her older brother, Michael,
and their mother, Helen,
who were all U.S. citizens
living in New York at the time.
In 2001, things got a bit heated
for the Huangs
when Division of Family Services
received an abuse
and neglect complaint.
Right, that's when Natalie
and her mother,
who had been
a corporate executive,
uprooted and moved to Taiwan,
but Michael stayed in Brooklyn
to attend
a boarding high school.
But shortly after arriving
in Taipei,
15-year-old Natalie
committed suicide.
Here's the kicker.
She stabbed herself with
a kitchen knife in the heart.
And the purple orchid
was Natalie's favorite flower.
Seems that her mother kept
a fresh supply
in the house at all times.
So each of these murders looks
just like Natalie's suicide,
but what happened
to her brother?
Monty, have you found records
indicating that Michael Huang
traveled to Taiwan
or any of the other countries
the UnSub killed in?
Negative, Jack. He seems
to have fallen off the radar.
Death records come up blank,
too.
We know our UnSub's been
killing under an assumed name.
Perhaps Michael Huang traveled
here under an assumed identity?
Makes sense.
You know, if Michael
is our UnSub,
it's quite possible that
all of this violence
is focused solely
on his mother.
I mean, think about
what Sara Yee told us
he whispered to her --
"It's not your fault.
It's how you were raised."
So you think Michael
blames his mother
for his sister's suicide?
That would explain why it's
so important for him
to display the bodies
on the outside of the buildings.
Right, because staging them
there would act
as a symbolic gesture
against his mother's work.
Okay, get this.
Mrs. Huang definitely had
behavioral issues with her son.
Turns out Michael was the source
of those neglect complaints
wherein he alleged
that his mother
had abandoned him
and his sister.
Well, it looks like D.F.S.
did a full investigation
and declared all those
allegations were unfounded.
Right, but in Michael's
deluded frame of mind,
he considered himself a victim
of his mother's neglect.
Sounds like the kind of trauma
that could be a trigger
even though his perception of it
was fabricated.
Hey, Jack, check this out.
Helen Huang, circa 2001.
Seems pretty clear who
his victims represent.
They were all surrogates
for Mom.
But if the allegations
against her mother were false,
why did Natalie kill herself?
Well, whatever the reason,
Michael killed once in each
of the other countries
in order to build his confidence
before coming back here
to Taiwan.
Because his mother was
living right here in Taipei.
Monty, tell me
you know where she is.
Um...Helen Huang now goes
by her maiden name, Chou...
...and Mrs. Chou
is the proud owner
of a flower stall
in the Shilin Night Market.
This is their busiest night.
Then she'll probably be there.
Let's go.

Mom?
No.
You died to me long ago.
Why did you come here?
Because it's time to pay
for what you did to us.
♪♪
Stop.
Stop. Don't hurt me.
Michael!
Put the knife down, Michael!
Think about what
you're doing.
Michael, I know that
you're hurting.
Everything will be
all right, ma'am. Stay calm.
You don't know what
she did to me,
what she did to us.
To who? You and your sister?
Yes, Natalie.
My mother needs to die
for what she did to us.
I loved you.
You abandoned us,
left us all alone.
I did my best.
Your father was gone.
We needed to survive,
so I worked, and you...
You raped your sister.
She killed herself
because of you!
No. You're lying.
You tried to tear us apart.
Why can't you see?
Get down. Get down.
Natalie and I
belonged together.
She was your sister.
She looked up to you.
How could you?
We only had each other...
because of you.
Michael.
What would Natalie
want you to do right now?
What would she want?
You love your sister,
don't you?
We spoke with her.
She doesn't want this.
She doesn't want
anyone else to get hurt.
I know what Natalie wants.
She wants this.
Everything's
gonna be okay. Move back.

Thanks for all your assistance.
It is I who should thank you
and your wonderful team, Jack.
Pleasure was all ours.
You know, I actually spent time
at the FBI National Academy.
It was the singular honor
of my career.
I can never repay the FBI for
the prestige it's brought me.
Well, it goes both ways.
The FBI benefits immensely
from working with officers
of your caliber.
May I ask a favor?
Of course.
Should you return to Taipei,
would it be possible to bring
one of those delightful
chicken parmesan sandwiches
from that little Italian deli
by the back gate to Quantico?
You can count on it.
Uh, I only hope it's under
better circumstances
than this trip.
Thank you, Jack.
Thanks.

Clara,
I don't know about this.
It's Happy Hour somewhere,

So you finally got

Indeed, we did.
I should be happier

Well, I know it doesn't
bring Lisa back,
or the others,
but at least we know
he can't hurt anybody else
again, right?
I know, and I really appreciate
you and the IRT
going and doing this.
We did it for Lisa
and all the others.
To Lisa Sojourn,
may you finally
rest in peace.
Amen.
Oh, it's time to juke.
Really? Here?
Oh, yeah, this is happening
right now.
No.
You're gonna have

If we're gonna send Lisa off,
we're gonna do it right.
What if Jack or Rossi sees us?
Have you seen Jack dance?
He's fabulous.
Oh.
