Criminal Minds: Evolution (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 7 - Pieces of Me - full transcript

Previously on "Criminal
Minds: Evolution"...

This is where Sicarius
kept his souvenirs, trophies.

He destroyed it like that.

Love the enthusiasm. But the
brass is not gonna like this.

Sicarius is still at large.

If you can give me
something, anything...

We'll find something.

Silvio Herrera is
being transferred back

- for execution at midnight.
- He didn't do it.

We can take what we have
to the Attorney General.

It would certainly help
if the original prosecutor



withdrew the case.

You are the only person
who can pick up the phone

and convince the governor
to stay this execution.

I know I did the right
thing, but I got the call.

I'm under review.

Can we talk about this at home?

I'm not going home.

Tyler Green
spoke with Sicarius online,

and we need you
to help.

You go get help from
one of the other dozen

I.T. people who
work for the FBI.

They're not as good as you.
I knew you're the best.

Goodbye.

Who's that? That's Moose.



He's a big old goofball.

Somebody or something
made this guy very good.

Did you come here to kill me?

I already killed
you an hour ago.

I just came here to
watch an old man die.

No, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no!

Help! Help!

Somebody help!

Help me, please!

Hey. Please.

Help me.

Please! Help me!

Help me! Please!

Help me! I'm not
supposed to be here!

Please!

"For, after all,
the best thing one can do

when it is raining
is let it rain."

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

Hi.

Hi.

Hi.

Penelope, w-what?

I need to discuss a
development with you

about the Tyler situation.

Tyler Green.

No, I know who he is.

W-What about him?

Okay.

It's time. Time for...

Oh, this is the
thing where you go

and you make your case to the...

Attorney General of
the United States

to throw a Hail Mary to
keep the Sicarius case open.

Oh, wow. Okay.
That's a big deal.

Yes, it is. Uh, so
what do I need to know

about Tyler Green?

Is it relevant? N-Not
in the slightest.

Godspeed.

You ready?

Yes, let's do this.

Ever done this before?

Yeah.

Well, I've given
presentations before,

but not to the, uh, top
law enforcement officer

in this country, concerning
the highest profile case

the Bureau has right now,

in which we have to
convince her that,

one, we deserve a second
chance to catch Sicarius,

and, two, we are not, in fact,

poster children for
FBI incompetence

in both left- and
right-wing media.

Oh, my God. I-I'm
gonna throw up.

You will be fine.

How are you not nervous?

I guess, after being assaulted,

drugged, and killed
in the line of duty,

I figure, what's the
worst that could happen?

Let's find out.

Doug. Madam Attorney General.

I have been briefed
on your request.

You have five minutes to tell me

why I should
abandon common sense

and do what you're asking.

Ma'am, thank you for your time.

As you can see here,
there are many reasons

that we think Sicarius
is still active.

And here are some of them.

Hey. What have we got?

What gasoline does to physical
evidence, unfortunately.

This is the last of
what we could salvage

from the second
shipping container.

A-19... what's that?

RFID tracking tag.

It's mostly damaged, but
the I.T. department's

trying to salvage it.

Yeah, I mean, RFID tags
can be sewn into clothes,

put on keychains, you know,
some people even have them

implanted in their bodies
in case they end up in a,

you know, serial killer's
shipping container.

Well, we work with
the tools we have,

not the ones we need.

JJ.

There's a term for
that, you know.

Phantom Vibration Syndrome.

God, I know.

I just keep hoping Rebecca's
gonna text or call,

and now I'm pulling out
my phone every 12 seconds

like an idiot.

Well, take three days
and, uh, follow up

on this microchip thing.

Dave, that's like five
minutes' worth of work.

Exactly. See you
in three days.

No. I'm fine, okay?
My head's in the game.

Hey, look, I know what it's like

to lose the love of your life.

So don't argue with me.

Just do it.

Capisce?

Yeah.

Thank you.

Let me get this straight.

On my side, I have
Benjamin Reeves,

who killed his mother,
a sitting US senator,

next to a shipping
container full of evidence.

On your side, you have
a freed death-row inmate

who may have talked
to a connection,

first name Cyrus,
last name unknown.

Ma'am, our profile says
Sicarius is married,

with the possibility
of children.

Benjamin Reeves didn't fit that.

He was not Sicarius.

Emily, that's thin,
and you know it.

If the BAU cannot do its job,

I have no choice but to
tender my resignation.

Doug.

I stand with Agent Prentiss.

Okay.

Let's hold our horses
here, partners.

Nobody's throwing their
badges on the table today.

But we do have a bigger problem.

What bigger problem?

Tunnel vision.

The BAU has been so
focused on this case,

you've let others fall
behind, like this one.

From West Virginia.

The state attorney
there is wondering

why you have not
returned his call.

So while I make my
decision on Sicarius,

you two are going to prove to me

that you can still do the job.

Yes, ma'am.

What's in West
Virginia?

Help!

Anybody!

Please, help!

So, we're in a holding
pattern. We are.

I just can't believe
we missed this case.

How did it fall
through the cracks?

Well, we had to save two of
our own from an explosion

and exonerate a
death-row inmate.

I think we can grade
ourselves on a curve here.

The problem is, now we're
under the microscope.

You put Tara on a separate
assignment? I did.

Considering where her
head's at with Rebecca,

she needs a break.

But it means we're shorthanded.

Actually, we're not.

We're not?

No.

Agent Rossi, I've spoke
to the rest of the team.

Thank you for welcoming me.

I didn't.

You're all gonna appreciate
the irony of this

because, uh, Bailey here,

his job now depends
on us doing ours.

Yes, well, since our fates are
tied together on this case,

I took the liberty of
preparing a briefing.

Okay, then. Wow us.

Our sole victim
is Terry O'Brien,

teaching assistant
at Camdale College

in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia.

He went missing last week.

He was discovered
on campus by faculty

after an alumni event.

Alumni event?

Yeah, alumni event.

Cause of death
was exsanguination

from some surprisingly deep
lacerations all over his body.

But here's why the
BAU's been invited in.

Two days ago, Grace
Ryleigh also went missing.

How do we know these
two cases are connected?

Grace attended Terry's class.

Because Grace attended Terry...

Yes, what Agent
Jareau just said.

Could be a romantic
connection between these two.

Or they're just
victims of opportunity

who happened to be
in the same class.

Figuring out what
ties them together

is our first job when we land.

Wheels up. Oh.

Yes, about the jet.

No. Come on.

We just got it back.

While the BAU is under review,

you no longer have access to it.

But Terry's parents are
already on their way in.

JJ, prep for that interview.

Luke, Dave, head to
the M.E.'s office

to examine Terry's body.

And what should I do?

Got it. I'll do that.

This UnSub has abducted
twice in two weeks.

Keep tabs on further
missing-persons reports.

What is
that amazing smell?

Oh, I'm just making
eggs for the girls

before they wake up. Oh.

You know, you make
eggs once a month,

and they think you're
Chef of the Year.

What's wrong with my eggs?

Well, they're kind of old.

Kidding.

Okay, I will
literally murder you.

Unless you make me some.

You got it.

I could've had a chance.
I could've been different.

No, you couldn't.

Our vice is in our blood.

Need I remind you

of the real reason you
came into my custody?

Elias?

Elias. Look... fire!

Oh, shit!

Are you okay?

Uh... yeah, sorry.

I was on the road all
night again and...

Um...

And...

And what?

And I don't know.

Look, just let me
get a little rest,

and then I promise
I will stop trying

to burn the house down.

Love you.

Love you.

The lacerations over
the victim's body

suggests he was whipped,

but I've never seen
a whip like this.

I have.

Based on the
spacings of the cuts,

would a cat-of-nine-tails do it?

Possibly.

But based on the
angle of these tears,

you'd need a sharp edge
to tear into the flesh.

And that still
doesn't explain that.

He's sending a message.

Should we call Reid and
get his dissertation

on the number pi?

I don't think it's
that 3.14, Dave.

I think that it's
Genesis 3:14.

"On your belly shall you crawl

all the days of your life."

How did you get there?

You couldn't live
in my abuela's house

and not know your scripture.

But I got there because of that.

He's... He's got to
have matching wounds

on this knees, right?

Yes.

That's the other
part of the torture.

Before he whipped
Terry to death,

he made him crawl.

Based on his wounds, for days.

Another girl
has gone missing.

Ashley Limina.

Her sorority said she
didn't come home last night.

It might not be connected,

but the geography's
too close to ignore.

Hello, hello, boss,
JJ, double boss.

I looked into the victims.

I found zilch indicating
any relationship

between Terry and Grace,
aside from him being her T.A.

However, Terry
O'Brien was arrested.

Somehow, that arrest
has been scrubbed

by the local police.

Well, how did that happen?

Well, some college towns

make misdemeanor-level
offenses disappear

so the crime stats don't
scare off potential students.

Terry's parents just arrived.

Maybe they'll share what
warranted that arrest.

Well, that record is
our only lead right now,

and with the
A.G.'s eyes on us,

we can't afford
to miss anything.

So, JJ, you run point.

I'll observe. Mm-hmm, got it.

Would you two mind if I
sit in on that interview?

I don't mind, but
what do you want...

Appreciate it.

I'll sit on him. Thank you.

F-Freeze!

What did you want to tell me

about Tyler Green?

Oh.

Okay.

What?!

Yes. Yes.

I kissed Tyler Green.

I told you the new
"back at the BAU" me

was more impulsive and
committed to pleasure.

This is bad, isn't it?

Penelope
when two agents date,

there is a process.

There are releases, sometimes
there are transfers.

My point is, it's a headache.

Oh, I've given you a headache.

No.

You've given me a migraine,

because Tyler Green
is not an agent.

He is a material witness

to the biggest investigation
in the history of the BAU!

Okay, yes, I know, I know!

That's why I went to
you. How do I fix it?

You have to break
it off with him.

Today?

Unless you can
invent a time machine

and go back and not kiss him.

Yes, today.

Well, there is a kink
in the hose in that...

h-he spent the night
at my house last night.

He was hungover, and
I let him stay there,

and then I gave him my keys
because, remember how I ran...

Remember how I ran into
the round-table room,

and I gave that Second
Street connection

and I was super
helpful, so helpful

that you didn't want to fire me

'cause I like this
job again now?

Mm-hmm. You're not fired.

Just call him,

have him mail the
key back to you,

and do not talk to him further.

Am I clear?

Yeah, you're clear.

I can see right
through you clear.

I'll call him.

Today.

I said that. You
said you'd call him.

You didn't say when.

Call him today.

Okay, but really, what is time?

Okay, uh, my migraine now
is throbbing, like, woob.

Okay, okay. I'm
gonna call him.

Woob. I'll call him today.

Woob.

I'm gonna go get you a compress.

I love you.

Mr. and
Mrs. O'Brien,

I know this is
painful to talk about.

All we want to do is find
the man who did this.

If Terry's arrest plays a
role in that, i-it could help.

Agent, we don't want
to cause a fight here.

We don't think the FBI
can solve this at all.

You... You don't?

After the past few years?

This agency has lost
this country's trust.

The only reason we're here
is to collect Terry's body

for a proper burial.

My dad gave
me this as a flag.

It's a Gadsden snake, right?

With the motto
"Don't tread on me"?

Deputy Director,
maybe this isn't...

My dad lives by that quote.

That and the one
from Ronald Reagan...

"Government is not the
solution to our problem.

Government is the problem."

Sometimes I think
me taking this job

was my delayed teenage rebellion

to prove to him that
government could still work.

Well, how's that
working out for ya?

Honestly? Not
great.

Sometimes I think...

"Holy cow. The old
man was right."

We appreciate you saying that.

We want justice for Terry.

We just can't trust
you to mete it out.

Then let me tell you what I
tell my dad on Thanksgiving.

The Behavioral Analysis Unit
has one job... to stop killers.

And it's critical
that we stop this one.

Because whoever did
this to your son...

he has two more.

Now, if Terry's arrest had
nothing to do with this,

then we believe you.

But if it did, we need to know.

Terry sold her drugs.

Paulette, stop.

I-I'm sorry. What exactly?

He had an OxyContin
prescription for his knee.

He sold what was left
of the bottle to Grace.

Somebody told the police.

But he swore to us
and to the school

that it was a one-time
thing, and it was.

That make a difference?

Maybe.

We'll add it to our profile.

And when we make an arrest,

is it okay if I call
you to tell you?

Agents...

find this guy.

Very impressive, Deputy
Director.

That story about your
dad, was that true?

Hmm? Oh, no, no.

He's an old hippie
up in Woodstock.

But you don't get to
be Deputy Director

without knowing how to
code-switch politically.

So, if Terry and Grace have a
connection through OxyContin,

does that speak to the
UnSub's motivation?

Probably.

If Alvez is right,

his message is Old Testament
fire and brimstone,

so he's punishing.

Why punish Ashley, too?

That's where we
need to dig next.

These three victims
have a connection

we're still missing.

Hey! Hey!

Hey!

Oh, my God.

Wait, wait! Wait,
wait, wait! Wait, wait!

Shh! For God's sake, shut up!

Who was that?

I don't know.

But he's judging us.

Okay, so, it turns out this
kind of tracking device

is used to track pets...

In our case, a dog named Moose.

Okay. W-Who did
Moose belong to?

Tawny Smith, from
Chattanooga, Tennessee.

She's been posting about
Moose being missing

since Thanksgiving.

You're gonna have
to be the bearer

of some terrible news.

Wait a minute.
Hold on a second.

Sicarius took the dog
and left Tawny alive?

Yeah. I was surprised, too.

The Sicarius in my mind

does not leave people
or pets breathing.

Well, just gives you a
sense of his discipline.

I mean, he needed the dog and
not her.

Hey.

Just call Rebecca.

Tell her you're sorry.

Oh, no, I mean,

the worst thing I can do
is push her, you know.

I'm the one that screwed up.

I gotta let her get
there on her own.

But, geez, the waiting
game is almost worse

than splitting up, you know?

Yeah, but...

sometimes it's better to
just rip the Band-Aid off.

Isn't it?

I'm gonna coordinate with
the Nashville Office,

see if Tawny will come
in for an interview.

So, our UnSub's pattern
is coming into focus.

We have Terry the dealer
and Grace the user.

And then Ashley is the enabler.

Earlier this year, she was cited

for covering up a sorority
sister's overdose.

But Ashley didn't take Terry's
class and didn't know Grace?

No, no connection between
the other two victims at all,

but somehow, this UnSub
tied them together.

Through a sin he can't forgive.

We need to deliver the profile.

Alright, Rossi and I will
talk to local police.

There might be another group
who should hear it, too.

Bear with me, but it might
make a difference with them.

The unknown subject
we're looking for

has abducted three victims
from your college community.

We believe he lives
and/or works on campus.

As representatives of the
college administration,

you're uniquely qualified
to help us identify him.

Based on the
demographic of the community,

the UnSub is middle-aged
and physically fit.

What makes him stand
out are his beliefs.

He left a message based
on a quote from the Bible.

This makes him a
moral absolutist.

A lot of people believe
in biblical principles,

but this man's belief
system has become so rigid,

he feels he can't trust God
to punish those who sin.

The BAU has a term for
this... "injustice collector."

Like LAPD cop turned
cop-killer Christopher Dorner.

Injustice collectors
have suffered

some sort of severe moral
injury in their past.

To deal with this trauma,
they hurt others in order

to restore some sense of
justice to their own lives.

We believe this UnSub's
trauma is connected

to the loss of a loved one
due to an opioid overdose.

It's why he externalizes
his pain onto his victims,

all of whom are tied
to opioids in some way.

Here's where you come in.

We need employee
and student records

so we can see who
fits this profile.

Now, he's someone that
students and professors

wouldn't notice...

A custodian or a
maintenance worker...

Someone who observes his victims
by cleaning up after them.

That's how he learns
their secrets...

In garbage they throw away or
the moments he eavesdrops on,

when they don't even
notice he's there.

Stop. This is a
liability nightmare.

We can't admit knowledge of a
serial killer at our school.

You're past that now.

An FBI agent once told me

you can either protect
the people you serve

or protect your ass.

But right now,
you can't do both.

If we cooperate... if...

Who do we send the files to?

I tried that.

This place is abandoned
except for us.

And him.

What's your name?

Ashley.

I'm Grace.

Here.

Finish this. You're
gonna need it.

How'd you get this?

He comes down here sometimes.

Leaves out food and water.

Sometimes?

How long have you been here?

I don't know.

Days, maybe.

What's the last
thing you remember

before you woke up here?

Uh, walking home.

From the library.

I couldn't breathe
because he put a...

He put a bag over your head.

Yeah. You, too?

Why is he doing this?

It's a test.

A test of what?

Our sanity?

No. It's worse than that.

Worse? What could
be worse than...

What is that?

There's no point in fighting it.

No! No!

Ah!

What?!
No! Mom, come on!

I'm doing my homework.
She's just on her phone.

This isn't
a negotiation.

What, do you want
me to take them away

for the whole day then? No!

What is going on?

Oh, uh, I asked them just
to come out of their rooms

and off of their
screens for one hour,

and now they're revolting.

Yeah, okay, girls,
listen to your mother.

Well, if we have to, so do you.

You were on your
phone in the garage.

Yeah, 'cause I'm the dad, and
there are different rules.

Eh, she's not wrong. You
are always on your phone.

Jesus fucking Christ.

I can't take this
fuckin' family anymore.

What did you just say?

You do not talk to this
family like that, Elias.

I'm... I'm sorry.

I-I'm under a lot of
pressure at work... a lot.

A lot of pressure.

Dad dropped the F
bomb.

Is that cool?

No. No, it's not.

I'm gonna have a talk with him.

Grace!

Grace!

Here's your choice.

You can take one door
and be free, or...

you can take her place.

You decide.

Okay. I'll get help.

I promise.

Come on!

Wrong choice.

No! That's not fair!

You tricked me!

That's not fair!

No!

Are you sure?
Completely, 100% sure?

I'm afraid so.

Based on where we found
Moose's locater chip,

he's no longer with us.

Uh, could I just have a moment?

Of course.

Dear Lord, please let
Moose's soul find rest.

Amen.

Uh, sorry.

So, I'm confused.

The FBI is taking on
dead-dog cases now?

No, actually, we're looking
for the man responsible.

Tawny, do you remember
seeing anyone suspicious

the night that
Moose disappeared?

That was so long ago.

I was working that night,
and I see so many weirdos.

But the store has cameras.

I could pull them so that
you could see who came in.

That would be amazing.

That would be
incredibly helpful.

Um, do you think
we could go now?

Sure. Great.

Um, can I just have
a sec? Oh, um...

Thank you so much

for guiding me to this
incredible team of agents

to help me in this endeavor.

And... And please,
let Agent Lewis

be less distracted
so that she can find

that son of a bitch
who killed my dog.

Amen.

No offense.

None taken.

I meant about the
cursing.

The God I believe
in doesn't mind.

I like your idea of God.

He's not bad.

Ready to go?

Hey. Hi.

Please don't say anything.

Okay.

See, I just asked you
not to say something.

I specifically did, and then
you just said something.

Hello? Are you there?

Yeah... Uh, no, you asked
me not to say anything.

Correct, I did, okay.

I-I need to rip the
Band-Aid off right now.

Here we go.

That kiss... do you remember?

I remember.

Alright, I need you
to forget the kiss.

I need you to wash
it away from history.

It was a mistake.
It was a mistake.

Not your mistake, my mistake.

My mouth ran into your face.

I take radical
responsibility for that.

But you are a material witness,

and what if I'm testifying,
and Sicarius' lawyer says,

"Did you kiss Tyler Green?"
and I say, "I object!"

and then the judge says,

"You can't object.
You're testifying."

And then the whole case
falls apart because...

Because of... because...

I get it.

You do?

I do.

And you're right.

We have to cut off
all contact, don't we?

Yeah, yes. Yes.

And, uh, I need
to, uh, get my key.

I'll come by tomorrow
and drop it off.

No, actually, I think you
need to mail it to me...

We need to talk.

You promised.

You promised me that
you would never treat me

the way that my
dad treated my mom

or treat the kids that
way, and here you are.

It's time to come clean.

What are you talking about?

I know the truth,
Elias, about everything.

What do you mean?

I mean... I know.

I know why you're
acting like this.

Sydney, you're gonna
have to tell me

exactly what you think you know

because I'm not in the
mood for this shit.

No, no.

Hey.

Don't walk away from
me.

Do you think I'm stupid, huh?

Did you think I wouldn't notice
the secretive phone calls,

the trips, the lying?

I'm gonna ask you one more time.

What do you think you know?

I know that you lost your job.

I called Kelly to see if Mike

was going through
the same thing,

and she said that you
were fired... months ago.

So when you told me that
you were traveling for work,

what were you doing?

Were you... Were
you gambling? No.

A-Are you addicted
to drugs? No.

Are you seeing someone else?

No, I was interviewing
for other jobs.

I didn't want to tell
you until I had one

because I didn't
want to scare you.

Yeah, well, that,
uh... That didn't work.

Um, I need to know
what your plan is

because this... this...
This silent treatment

and the random outbursts...

This isn't working.

You're next.

Grace? Oh, my God, Grace.

Okay, come here, come here.

I'm so, so sorry.

It's n-not your fault.

It is.

I had a choice, and I... Stop.

There was a man
here... before you.

I was where you were.

I made the same choice.

We're both gonna
die here, aren't we?

I need to tell you something.

He's watching. Don't
let him see this.

We're gonna pull
it out on three.

You'll die. I'm
gonna die anyway.

No, no, wait.

One, two, three.

Okay, now listen very closely.

Once I'm dead, he's
gonna come for me.

This is what you need to do.

We did it!

After going through
hundreds of records,

we can switch from
unknown subjects to known.

Frank Scelsa... he's
the superintendent at Camdale.

He had a daughter,
Kelly, who overdosed

after buying drugs
from a fellow student.

Her roommate knew about
it, didn't tell anyone.

Everyone involved with her death
was either arrested or expelled.

He can't punish them directly,
so he punishes surrogates.

Do we have home and work
addresses for Scelsa?

Plus the address of his ex-wife,

although he's not been at
work for the last few days,

so home is your best bet.Okay.

Dave, you and Luke
go to his home.

JJ, talk to his ex.

Bailey and I will cover his job.

Let's get you suited up.

Been a while?

Not since training.

Oh.

Did you ever do Hogan's Alley?

No.

Oh, it was loads of fun.

It was a course designed
to force failure.

And then the instructors
were yelling at you...

"You've betrayed your oath to
your country!"

We should let your
dad run it, huh?

Oh. Yeah,
he would love that.

What you said to
Terry's parents,

that was the truth, wasn't it?

Yeah.

So, what is he?

Three Percenter? Minuteman?

No, no, he's...

just a Libertarian
who owns so many guns.

For when the government
comes to take them away.

Oh.

He'd disown me if
he saw me right now,

so let's keep this
between, uh, us, okay?

I will not tell a soul.

Maybe Rossi.

Oh, well, duh.

I need more men my dad's
age I can disappoint.

Don't die.

Please don't die.

You can't be dead.

This is all my fault.

Come and get it, motherfucker.

Emily, he's not here.

JJ didn't have any luck
with the ex, either.

But we did find diagrams of
the old campus power plant.

Looks like he retrofitted
it to hold prisoners.

Copy. We're
five minutes away.

We'll stay outside
until backup arrives.

Now! Aah!

We're going in.

Run!

Hurry. He's coming.
He's coming.

He's coming.

FBI!

Clear. Clear.

Clear.

Hey, hey! It's
okay! We're the FBI.

Ashley Limina!

He's in the basement.
He's got Grace.

You have to save her.

Stay with her.

Let's get you outside.

FBI.

Frank Scelsa, drop the
weapon, or I will shoot.

Then shoot.

I have made my peace with God.

He understands that
somebody must pay!

That somebody
isn't Grace, Frank.

She did not hurt your daughter.

She's not innocent, either.

Okay, then.

Let's make a deal.

You let her go, I let you go.

No.

No deal.

You make a deal
with the devil...

it's a trap.

Not this time.

Remember Genesis?

Chapter 19, verse 17...

"God's angels told
Lot to leave Sodom."

That's what he's
telling you right now.

Leave.

Don't be like Lot's wife.

Don't look behind you.

Just leave.

Hands in the air.

She needs you.

We need an ambulance
at 4490 Hillview Court.

Two wounded, one critical.

Hi.

Hi, I'm Doug.

Did Ashley make it?

Yes, she did.

So will you.

Doug...

I'm really cold.

Is that better?

Hey. Hey, do you hear that?

Do you know who that is?

That's the team that is
coming to save your life,

because you did it, Grace.

You made it.

So, uh, I have a plan.

I think I should go.

Go? That's your answer?

That's always your answer.

How long this time?

I don't know. A-A couple days.

But when I come back,

I will be the
husband you deserve.

Husband I deserve?

Wow. That is... That's, um...

Fuck you.

You are not putting this on me.

You made this decision.

So before you go on
your little walkabout,

you're going to have
to explain yourself

to our daughters.

Because the husband I deserve

is the father that they need.

Jesus.

Is this our fault?

Did we do something?

No, no, no, no,
no. This is not...

It's not about you, okay?

Is this forever?

No.

No, look, hey, I
just need some time

to go figure some things out.

Look, when I'm gone, I
have a really important job

for both of you, okay?

I need you to take
care of your mom, okay?

If she can't get
the laundry done

or check your homework,

I just need you to help her out.

Can you do that?

Har... Harlow, look at me.

You, your sister, and your mom

are the best thing in my life.

The best thing.

And when I come home,

it's gonna be exactly
like it was, okay?

I-I promise.

Okay?

Come here.

I gotta go.

I know.

Hey. What are you doing here?

I got a second wind.

Oh. Well, I have not.

I'll see you tomorrow, people.

Good night.

Any luck on that microchip?

Yeah, it, uh, led us
to a hardware store

in Chattanooga.

Possible contact with Sicarius.

I forwarded the
materials to you.

Good.

Did you get what you needed?

I did, yeah.

I'm gonna turn my phone
off for the night.

Good idea.

Thank you.

Hey.

What are you doing here?

Well...

I heard through the grapevine
you were headed home,

so I thought we could
maybe have an adult supper.

Mm.

We said we'd make
time for a date night

when we can.

Uh, but the boys are...?

Oh, shit.

Come on, your
mama's staying home.

Alright.

I like your style, LaMontagne.

Knew there was a reason why I
married you.

There's a few of them.

Prentiss.

Ma'am.

Did you call Terry's parents,
tell them we got him?

I did. They were
very appreciative.

So, was, uh, Grace
Ryleigh's family.

Good.

She denied our
request, didn't she?

She did.

The Sicarius case is
officially closed.

I'm sorry, Emily.

Hi.

Here you go. Thank you.

Okay.

Okay.

Mm, not okay.

Can I say something?

Of course.

When I first reached
out to you...

I had this hate in
my heart, and, uh...

it's all I had.

I just wanted to find who
did this to my sister.

And then I was gonna end it.

You were gonna... Yeah.

But I don't feel
that way anymore.

And the only thing that
changed is, I met you.

You showed me that
there's still good,

decent people in the world.

So...

No matter what
happens, no matter...

who you arrest, or even
if you make an arrest...

you made me want to live again.

So if this is
goodbye, I just, uh...

thought you'd want to know that.

I did want to know that.

Thank you for telling me.

You should go.

I should go.

I do not want to be responsible

for what happens
if you do not go.

I'm okay with that.

Are we doing this? Um,
it appears... Yeah.

Yeah, we are doing this.

Mm. Mm.

There you are.

Is everything alright, dear?

Yes, yes, Mrs. Leonte,
everything is alright.

I heard some crashing.

I was a little concerned.

Oh. Well, you know me.

I was doing a little
redecorating in here,

but I-I'll try to be more quiet.

Are you sure?

Yeah, I am sure.

Bye-bye, Mrs. Leonte.

Good night.
