Claire's secret is revealed; the suspected killer makes a full confession; Victor protects Julie.

[male announcer]
Previously on The Returned...

I don't understand.
What's going on here, huh?

- You stay right where you are.
- You told him?

Chloe and I--
we don't need you anymore.

Stop moving.

- I've always loved you...
- Don't.

And I will always love--

Thank God you're here.

I found this necklace.
It was Lucy's.

What are you doing?
Tony, let me go.

Stop talking, stop talking.



I won't tell anyone,
I swear!

- [screams]
- Shut up!

She knows about you.

Just let me handle it.

Forgive Tony.
He didn't know what he was doing.

Please don't tell anyone
about me.

You've been locked in this house
for four years

lighting candles
to your dead daughter's shrine.

You're pissed off 'cause
you've got no one left to mourn.

Camille's back,
Lena doesn't need you anymore,

and you don't know
what the hell to do.

Jack's right.
Maybe it's time I started seeing

what's right in front of me.

- [camera shutter clicks]
- That's great.



[camera shutter clicking]

[laughs]
Very sexy.

[camera shutter clicks]

[both laughing]

That's what I was
going for.

Very mysterious.

[camera shutter clicking]

[camera shutter clicks]

Peter, what are you doing?

I'm cutting to the chase.

Come on, admit it--

this whole professional
photographer thing

is just an elaborate ploy
to get me naked.

Very funny.

Funny but true.

[laughs]

How cold do you think
the water is?

Cold.

I guess we'll find out.

[camera shutter clicks]

[laughs]
You're a lunatic!

- Whoo!
- [laughs]

It's actually quite warm.

Come on in.

You know you want to.
[chuckles]

[laughs, claps hands]

Whoo!
[claps hands]

- Here I come.
- That's my girl.

- Whoo!
- Aah!

- [laughs]
- [screaming]

- It's freezing!
- What?

- You liar!
- It's beautiful.

- You liar! Liar! Liar!
- It's beautiful.

[laughs]

- You're really talented.
- [chuckles]

I'm serious.
Why aren't you off...

shooting the cover
of National Geographic or something?

[laughs]

Yeah, that was the plan.

Yeah?

I was at the University
of Auckland,

working on my masters.

I had this whole idea

of what my life
was going to look like.

Hmm.

Then I met Jack.

Next thing I knew,
I was dropping out,

following him
across the world.

Plans change, huh?

Sometimes,
I imagine there's...

this other version of me
out there.

[chuckles]
Yeah?

[chuckles]

Taking pictures,
learning languages...

[laughs]

Eating spicy, exotic food.

[laughs]

It's never too late to change
directions in our life.

You don't have kids.

They change
everything.

All your dreams...

become dreams
for them.

Camille and Lena are
the best things

that have ever
happened to me.

I just sometimes need
to be reminded...

I'm here too.

Yes, you are.

[emergency brake cranks]

[Jack]
Hey.

[Claire]
Hey.

You're home late.

Yeah. I was at the Triple C,

putting together
a grant proposal

for the new arts program.

That sounds great.

We're watching Twilight.

I'm pulling for team Edward.
He's just so sparkly.

[both]
Shh!

Sorry.

[smooches]

[dog barking in the distance]

Where were you?

I'm sorry.

[both sobbing]

[Sighs]

[Sighs]

[indistinct chatter
over police radio]

[ambulance doors close]

He said he was gonna
take me with him.

Are you sure this is
the same man

you saw outside the house?

And at the library.

He was pretending to be
my former fiancé, Simon Moran,

but Simon died
six years ago.

You didn't know this man?

I told him to leave,

that I wasn't going
anywhere with him.

And what did he do?

He put a knife
to my throat.

If Tommy hadn't come home,

I don't know what
would've happened.

[man]
Nikki, here's the file

you requested from archives,

double murder
on Beck Avenue, 1986.

Thanks, Ryan.

[Sighs]

[whispering]
Nikki, it's the middle of the night.

- What are you doing here?
- I need to talk to you...

In private.

Okay.

Victor's real name
is Henry Garrity.

Do you remember that abandoned
house on Beck Avenue?

He and his mother
were murdered there...

almost 30 years ago.

That homeless woman
was right.

I don't want to know.

Julie...

Whoever he was, whatever
terrible thing happened to him,

it's in the past.

You don't understand.

No, you don't understand.

I don't know how or why,

but Victor was sent to me
for a reason.

I'm supposed
to take care of him.

We're supposed to take care
of each other.

I wish I could explain,
but I can't.

You're not the first.

Four years ago,
this lady--

She was single,
around your age.

She filed a report
about a lost little boy.

She found him outside her house
just like you did.

There was nobody
looking for him.

The kid didn't speak.

So what?

The woman's name
was Lauren Navarro.

Do you remember
the bus crash?

She was a teacher on that bus.
She's dead.

[Julie]
What does this have to do with Victor?

[Nikki] They thought that an animal
ran into the road,

made the bus swerve,

but they never found
any trace of it.

What if it wasn't
an animal?

Zach. Zach, please,
don't make this any harder.

Come on, I need you to get out.
Come on.

Now, listen to me.
I don't know...

why it is that you're here,
but this is wrong.

You don't belong here.

You need to go back, wherever
it is that you came from.

I'm so sorry.

[car door closes]

[engine turning over]

Camille.

Camille!

[Camille]
Let me off.

Let me off!
Let me out!

- Camille, it's not safe.
- Go back to your seat!

- I have to get off, please!
- That is enough!

[tires screeching]

Trust me, him being back
is not right.

Why are you doing this?

Because that kid freaks me out,
and I'm scared for you.

He's just a little boy.

Who knows what he's
capable of?

It's late.

You should go.

[Sighs]

Julie, please,
listen to me.

[Sighs]

I know you're awake.

I know someone hurt you.

Someone hurt me too.

So I understand.

I'm not going anywhere.

I recognized the necklace
right away.

Lucy wore it
all the time, and...

It had this thumbprint on it,
and I thought it was cool,

and then I asked her
about it once.

She didn't say whose it was.

So Tony Darrow came back?
He saw you with Lucy's necklace?

Yeah.

And he went crazy.

He tied me up and locked me
in this creepy shed.

I thought
he was gonna kill me.

And I let him run the Dog Star,
that son of a bitch.

Jack, calm down.

Honey, you didn't tell us
how you ended up

at Tony Darrow's cabin
in the first place?

I don't remember.

I was out of it
from the pain meds and...

Maybe Tony found me
outside the Dog Star

and brought me there.

Okay.

I think the best thing to do
is go down to the station,

let the police handle this.

No, Mom, I don't want to.
I-l don't know anything else.

Where are you going?

Take a guess.

- Jack!
- Call the police.

Jack, stop.
Hey, slow down.

Jack, hold on a second.

Don't you touch me.

Look, I get it.
I do.

You have every right
to be angry.

But whatever
you're about to do...

It isn't worth it.

That's not your daughter
in there.

That's not your family.

[car door opens]

[engine turning over]

[tires squealing]

[engine turning over]

[tires squealing]

Someone's coming.

No, 'cause she promised
she wouldn't tell anyone.

[Tony]
She lieu'.

- You got to go.
- No, Tony.

Yes, look,
I will make this right.

I will take care of it.
I will make this right.

But you got to go
right now.

Go.

Go!

Jack.

- What'd you do to my daughter, huh?
- What?

What'd you do
to my daughter?

Huh?

What'd you do
to my daughter?

Sorry, I didn't want
to hurt Lena.

Jack, that's enough.
You need to stop now.

Aah!

[Jack groans]

I'm not gonna let you
kill him.

[groaning]

[siren wailing
in the distance]

Does it still hurt?

No, it's just
a little sensitive.

What do you think
it was?

I don't know.

It sounds crazy, but...

I-I think maybe it was
because I was blaming myself...

for not being on the bus
with you that day

and for what I did
with Ben.

It wasn't
your fault.

It wasn't
yours either.

Why do you think
it's going away now?

Maybe because I realized
you're really back.

It's not too late
to be different.

When you were gone...

I got what it must've
been like for you.

I don't ever want to feel
that way again.

Me either.

[engine stops]

[car beeping]

[car door closes]

[dog barking in distance]

Rowan?

Baby?

Rowan!

Hey, love.

Sorry.
I didn't hear you come in.

Why aren't you at work?

I came by to check on you
and give you these.

Thank you,
That's so sweet.

But I'm okay, really.

You Okay?

Yeah.

I just...

I've never shot
anyone before.

Simon chose to die...

years ago.

He would have never
left us alone.

You did the right thing.

Listen to this.

You recognize it?

Of course.

Our first date.

[laughs]

You really want to call it
a date?

We got, like, three blocks
from the house,

listening to this song
on the radio,

and my water broke
all over your car.

[both laugh]

And you had to rush me
to the hospital and...

[both laugh]

That was the best date
of my life.

Oh, the best date of your life
was watching me give birth?

Now, that's just sad.

That's not sad.

Watching you

bring this amazing...

little person...

into the world, that...

that was awesome.

[Nikki]
You want to tell us how...

Lucy McCabe's necklace

ended up in your cabin?

I took it...

all of it,

from the girls.

What girls, Tony?

Lucy.

I don't know the names
of the others.

Meredith Williams,

Carmen Santos,

Jen Rodriguez,

Julie Han.

What are
you saying, Tony?

It was me.

I stabbed them,

and I bit them,

and it was me...

and I want to confess.

You sat here before...

and you swore to us
that you never hurt these women.

[swallows hard]

I lied.

And I want
to make it right.

[door closes]

[cell phone vibrating]

Hey, Nikki.

[sighs]
We got him.

Are you sure?

Yes.

We need you to come
down to the station.

You know when I told you someone
hurt me a long time ago?

Well, the police caught
the bad guy,

and they need my help.

You can come with me,

but if anyone talks to you
or asks you any questions,

you need to say
you're my nephew.

Got it?

Are they charging Jack?

Uh, no.
No, I don't think so.

Tony Darrow confessed.

The last thing anyone
cares about is what Jack did.

What did he do?

He beat the living shit
out of him.

If! hadn't have broken it up,

he would've literally
killed him.

Thank you for going
after him.

Looks like they're
wrapping it up.

Be back soon.

I love you.

I love you too.

Lena's gonna have
to come in

- and make a statement tomorrow, okay?
- Okay.

Well, what's next
with Tony?

Well, he confessed
to everything,

so next, we just try
to corroborate

some of the stuff he said.

[Sighs]

Don't worry.

He's not going anywhere
except prison, okay?

Go home.

Try to keep this guy
out of trouble, all right?

I'll do my best.

Was that Dad?

Peter. He and Dad
are on their way back.

How's Lena?

Sleeping-

Are those from our tree?

I picked them
for the Koretskys.

Oliver used
to like them, so...

Very thoughtful.

They were really kind to you
last night, weren't they?

Do you think you could give me
a ride over to their house?

Right now?

Honey, there's a lot
going on today.

I keep thinking
about them.

You got me back.

The Koretskys
don't have anyone.

[doorbell rings]

Cars are both here.

[doorbell rings]

Paul?

Rachel?

Hello?

[gasps]

Oh.

[breathing heavily]

[Camille sobbing]

[Claire]
Oh.

Hey.

Thanks for coming down.
I know this isn't easy.

You Okay?

Loretta,
this is Victor.

Do you mind keeping
an eye on him?

Hey, Victor.
How you doing?

I'm Julie's nephew.

Well, lucky Julie.

You know, I've lost a bag
of cookies somewhere in my desk.

Will you help me find them?

I think I put them
on that side.

No, I mean,
none of this is mine.

Are you sure?

You didn't lose any jewelry
the night you were attacked?

No.

Is that it?

Look, I understand you haven't
been able to remember

the face of your assailant.

We showed you a picture
of Tony Darrow seven years ago.

Maybe if you took another look
at him in person,

it might jog your memory.

[Sighs]

[Julie breathing heavily]

Jules?

[breathing heavily]

Jules, sit down.
Sit down, it's okay.

Look at me,
it's gonna be okay.

Just breathe.

[Sighs]

In for two, out for two.
Ready?

[breathes heavily]

Look at me.

[breathes heavily]

Hey, look at me.
You're gonna be okay.

[breathing steadily]

[door creaks]

Hmm.

Tony?

Tony!

[Peter]
Did you call the police?

I couldn't call the police.
I had Camille with me.

The sheriff's already
looking for her.

I didn't know what to do,
so we just left.

Camille saw them?

She's upstairs with Lena.
She's devastated, Jack.

It's okay.
Hey, nobody saw you.

I'll--l'll go over
to the Koretskys myself.

I'll say we were supposed
to meet tonight,

and I found 'em like that.

No one will know Camille
had anything to do with it.

Except her.

- We don't know what--
- Camille told them

that their son was
waiting for them in Heaven

because you told her to.

This is because of your
brilliant idea.

Jack, one statement does not
drive people to suicide, okay?

No one could have known
how fragile the Koretskys were.

We should have known.

After the accident,
I would've done anything

to see
my daughter's face again.

You wouldn't have
killed yourself.

Jack's right.

We never should have put
Camille in that position.

You mean giving her
the chance to help people?

To find some kind of meaning
in all this?

I mean telling her
to lie.

I didn't tell her--

Claire, I didn't tell her
to lie.

Bullshit.

At least take
some responsibility.

Oh, really? Responsibility?
[laughs]

Yeah, Jack, you're the paradigm
of responsibility.

When your family was
falling apart, where were you?

At a bar
with a bunch of kids,

banging some
25-year-old hooker.

- Peter, stop!
- Don't tell--

You can't talk to him
like that.

[Claire]
You need to go...

now.

It's about time she sees
what you really are.

Yeah, what am
I really, Jack?

A manipulative pariah who preyed
on a grieving, married woman

just to get laid.

Not only do you have no idea
who I really am,

you have no idea
who your wife is either.

We were sleeping together
a year before the accident.

Yeah.

Claire didn't fall into my bed
out of grief.

She ran there
out of boredom.

Wow.

That's desperate, man,
even for you.

What did you think she was doing
all those afternoons

at the Triple C--
volunteering?

[engine turning over,
car beeping]

The Koretskys were
always weird.

They kept Oliver's baby teeth
in a jar on their mantel.

And they wore T-shirts
with his face on it

to our high-school
graduation.

Who does that?

I'm sorry about
what happened to them,

but it had nothing
to do with you.

How do you know that?

You can't make people
kill themselves.

But what if I can?

I never sleep anymore.

I have this, like...

hunger inside of me.

It never stops.

What if I'm turning
into something bad?

You're not.

You're my sister.
That's who you are.

Oh, you're a hungry
little fella, aren't you?

Can I help you?

I, um...

- I-l need to talk to a cop.
- About what, sir?

Just--
I need to tell them something

about some things I know,
about some--about some crimes.

All right, well, you go
and sit down,

and as soon as one of our
police officers is available--

No, no, I don't--I need
to talk to a cop right now.

[Loretta]
This is a police station,

not McDonald's.

You're gonna have to wait.

Ma?

You can't keep a secret
like this.

You're too stupid.

Ma.

You know what
you have to do.

I'll call
you later, okay?

Okay.

The best I can do for you

is to get you started
on an incident report...

I don't want to fill out
an in--

That you will have to
fill out--

Where's Victor?

He was right here
just a second ago.

No, he was right here.

He was right here.

Ma.

Make it right.

Ma.
[sobs]

[sobbing]

[sobbing]
Ma.

[distant thudding]

[Tony]
No, no!

Ma.

- [thud]
- Ma.

Ma!

Tony! Stop!

Stop. Tony!

Stop!

[Tony]
Ah! No!

- Whoa! Whoa!
- Hey, hey, hey!

- Put the gun down, Tony!
- Hey, hey!

- No, no, no.
- Don't do it.

- Put it down, Tony.
- Tony, drop it!

- No, no, no.
- Don't be stupid, Tony.

(Tommy)
Don't do it.

- Do it, son. Make it right.
- No, I'm sorry.

(both)
No!

[gunshot]

[Shane]
I forgot to disarm.

Oh, shit.

Shit.

Hey:

I missed you.
How was your sleepover?

- Grandma snores.
- [laughs]

Did the angel come?

The angel had to go
back to Heaven.

When's he coming back?

He's not.

Because of me?

No, no, no, no...

because
he didn't belong here.

But he's my daddy.

Well, sort of.

But a daddy is someone
who takes care of you,

who's been there
your whole life,

like Tommy.

Tommy's not going
anywhere, ever.

But he's not my real daddy.
I want my real daddy!

Chloe--

I want the angel now!
I want my daddy!

I want my daddy!

It's okay. It's okay.
Come here.

[Sighs]

[thud]

[thud]

[loud banging]
