- Her parents are turning the
backyard into a movie theater,

and everyone's getting
their own personal snack bar.

- All our friends
are gonna be there.

- Can we go? Please?
- Please?

- Absolutely not.

No sleepovers
until you get your grades up.

- Mom, why? That's so unfair.

- No, it's not.
Besides, you know how I feel

about Cindy and her weird
parents.

- They're not weird.
They're cool.

- The answer is no. Come on.
Inside.

- Hello there, ladies.

- It's dad!

- * Burn, baby, burn

[The Trammps' "Disco Inferno"
playing]

- A disco ball!

- This is so cool!

- Ah-ah-ah-ah. Come on.
Off my couch. Off my couch.

Cecil, what is all this?

- It's a disco party.

- Wh-why?
- Why not?

I thought this family could use
a little fun right now.

Check it out, girls.

- Oh, my God.
Is that a karaoke machine?

- Is this bike for me?
- Yep.

And you've got
two other presents there.

You can open them now.

And I've got one other
big surprise.

It's in the other room.

- Cecil, we can't afford
all this.

- Hold that thought,
Mrs. Walsh.

Next dance is for you.

- Oh, it's the unicorn hoodie
I've been telling you about!

- No way.
Is this what I think it is?

Yes! I got a mini tablet!

- Those are some
awesome presents.

- Okay, Karlie, Amanda,
sit on the couch.

Close your eyes.
Here comes the big surprise.

- * The heat was on

- Ready?

- Yeah.
- Yep.

- Are your eyes closed
really tight?

- Yup.
- [giggles]

- * That is when my spark
got hot *

* I heard somebody say

[gunshots]
- [screaming]

- * Disco inferno

- Why are you doing this?

- * Burn that mother down

* Burn, baby, burn

* Disco inferno

* Burn, baby, burn

* Burn that mother down

* Burn, baby, burn

[vocalizing]

* Burn, baby, burn

- Have you seen my phone?

I can't find it anywhere,

and I don't want
to be late for court.

- Between the headboard
or maybe the nightstand?

- Looked there already.
- Well, babe, I don't know.

I'm late for work too,
and I can't find

Anais' spelling worksheet
anywhere.

- Never mind. Found it.

- Mommy, I had an accident.

- Anais, you're soaking wet.

- Sorry.

- Go run and get a new shirt.
Quick.

Of all the days for Renee
to call in sick.

- It's the third time
she's bailed this month.

What nanny does that?
- I am so over it.

We need to have
a serious talk with her.

- Hello, hello. Help is here.

- Mom, thank you for coming.
You're a life saver.

- Not a problem.

How are you, Charlotte?

- Good. Running a little late.

- Hang on a sec. Come here.

Let me see.

Like I said, boy.
You're hanging low.

- Mama B.
- Oh, look at my angel.

Why are you wet?

- I spilled milk.

- You let her go to school
like that?

- No, she's supposed
to be changing.

Anais, clean shirt. Hurry up.

- I really need to go.
Thanks again, Susan.

- Wait, no, no.
Mom, that can wait.

Anais is late.

- No, it cannot.
I never start my day

with a dirty kitchen,
and neither should you.

- Ah-ah-ah-ah. I got this. Go.

- All right.

Love you.
- Love you too.

- No way. I got a mini tablet!

- Those are some
pretty awesome presents.

- Okay, Karlie, Amanda,
sit on the couch.

Close your eyes.

Here comes the big surprise.
Ready?

- Yeah.
- Yep.

- Are your eye closed
really tight?

- Yeah.
- Yep.

[gunshots]
- [screaming]

Why are you doing this?
[gunshot]

- Okay, 6:00 a.m. this morning,
Fairfield, Connecticut.

Next door neighbor goes
to the house of Ellen Walsh

to go for their daily walk,

knocks on the door,
and there's no answer.

She peeks through the window,
and she finds the bodies

of Ellen and her two daughters,
Amanda and Karlie.

All three were killed
by Cecil Walsh.

He's the husband of Ellen.

They were married
three years ago.

The daughters are from
a previous relationship.

- Our fugitive is a family
annihilator with one DUI

and no history of violence.

The room was set up
like a disco.

Lights. Mirror balls.
The whole nine yards.

- And he's in costume.

Torn wrapping paper
on the floor.

The girls opening gifts.

Maybe this was his weird way

of giving them
one last happy moment.

- Or a way to distract them
before he attacks.

This is classic
psychopathic behavior.

He's calm and detached
as he executes his family,

showing no hesitation
or remorse.

- What activated him?
- Money could be the motive.

Meaning the lack of it.
He was deep in debt.

Unpaid credit card bills,
house in foreclosure,

and both cars
on the verge of being repoed.

And it looks like
he was recently let go

from his engineering job
at a firm

in Hartford, Connecticut.

His last paycheck
was a month ago.

He was the sole breadwinner.

Ellen has no
employment history.

- Okay, so maybe his ego

and male pride
got the better of him.

Didn't want his family
to think less of him

for not being able
to provide financially.

So he killed them before
they could learn the truth.

- Why don't you head
to Cecil's last job.

See why he was fired.
Barnes, dig into the victims.

The rest of us are gonna
head to the crime scene.

[suspenseful music]

*

[indistinct chatter]

[siren wailing]

We'll check the room
with the bodies.

You check the rest
of the house.

[somber music]

- [sighs]
Cecil really went all out.

- He planned this meticulously.

How old were the girls?

- 11 and 12.

*

- Take a look
at these pictures.

Cecil isn't in any of 'em.

- Weird.
- Mm-hmm.

It's almost like it's not even
a part of this family.

- When did his financial
problems start?

- About a year ago.

- They were married in 2018.

Based on the age of the girls,

I'm assuming these photos were
taken in the last few years.

- Are you saying Cecil
was alienating himself?

- From his family and before
his financial troubles.

- Hey, guys, I have something
to show you.

[suspenseful music]

*

- Cecil's man-cave?

- I don't think so.

It looks like they were having
marital issues,

and there's no sign of them
sharing the master bedroom.

All his clothes and his
belongings are in this room.

I mean, there was--
there was this.

I found this box locked
under the bed.

- Pine cones?

- They were preserved
with some sort of a laminate.

And they're all numbered.

Total of 35.

- How bizarre.
Why is he hoarding pine cones?

- Could have some kind of
sentimental value.

That's why he's keeping them
in a case under his bed.

- I remember
making bird feeders with these

in elementary school.

Could be some kind
of childhood trauma.

- Could be.

Could be
some kind of weird fetish.

Let's go talk to the neighbor.

- Cecil had been with the firm
about 10 years.

I can't believe he would do
something so awful.

Those poor girls.

- Had you noticed a change
in his behavior recently?

- About a month ago,

he started acting distant,
kind of strange.

- Strange how?

- Like his mind was elsewhere.

Suddenly it was a struggle
for him to finish projects,

and when he finally did,

they were riddled
with mistakes.

It was out of character.

- And did he mention
what was bothering him?

Problems at home? His family?

- No, he just apologized
and corrected the mistakes.

The revisions were
always pitch perfect

just like his work
had been before.

- And did he have a history
of volatility on the job?

- Not at all.

He was a friendly,
mild-mannered guy.

A real team player
and a very hard worker.

Essentially,
he was the perfect employee

and an asset to the firm.

- So why did you fire him?

- I didn't.

I actually offered him
a promotion

with a very substantial raise
about a month ago,

but he turned it all down,
and he resigned.

- Cecil was heavily in debt.

It doesn't make sense that
he'd walk away from the answers

to all his financial troubles.

- Well, the only explanation
he gave me was,

"Money can't fix the pain.
Nothing can."

- I feel terrible.

Ellen and I power-walked
around the neighborhood

every morning,
6:00 a.m. on the dot.

When I didn't see her outside,

I got a sinking feeling
in my stomach.

It's just so shocking.

- Did you notice anything off
between Cecil and his family?

- Nothing between him
and the little girls,

but Cecil and Ellen's marriage
was on its last leg.

- How so?

- I don't think he ever
really loved her.

I mean, he just seemed
to be going through the motions

of being a husband.

- And what about Ellen?

- She was ga-ga about him,

but she told me he'd become
increasingly distant.

Started giving her
the cold shoulder.

I mean,
they were barely speaking.

- And did they ever mention
anything about divorce?

- Poor Ellen was still trying
to make the marriage work.

And then last week,
Cecil started leaving the house

at odd hours,
and Ellen got suspicious.

She started following him
in her car.

- And that's her car there?
- Yeah.

- Only saved entries are home
and Cecil's office.

- She doesn't know her way
to either one?

- Well, I do the same thing.

Store the entries of the places

I go to the most
so I can check traffic.

Let's look at
the most recent destinations.

- There's half a dozen
entries there.

- They're in
chronological order,

so this one at the top
is the most recent.

- That's also the only address
not in Connecticut.

- Hold on. Hold on.
What is that? 780 Wilson Way.

- Yeah, in Brooklyn.

- It's St. Bertrand's
Catholic Church.

- There are plenty of Catholic
churches around here.

Why is Cecil going
all the way to Brooklyn?

- I don't know,
but it's all we got.

- Want us to check it out?

- Sounds good.
I'll finish up here.

[ominous music]

*

- Tell me, what is weighing
on your heart, my son?

What sins would you like
to confess?

- Father,
why should I even bother?

It won't make any difference.

- Well, the Bible tells us
if we confess our sins,

he is faithful and just
to forgive our sins

and cleanse us
from all unrighteousness.

- Some souls are too rotten
to be cleansed.

- God is merciful.

He doesn't sit in judgment
of those who seek his grace.

- It isn't his judgment
we should be worried about.

At least not here on Earth.

- Well, whatever is
troubling you, we can fix it.

All it takes is faith
and forgiveness.

- Not for me.

- [choking]

*

- We've got one victim,
Father Adam Jones.

Church secretary found him
about an hour ago.

At first she thought
it was a heart attack

until she saw ligature marks
around his neck.

Looks like it could have been
some sort of a belt or a strap.

- We sure this is Cecil?

- No one saw him,
but we did find

his fingerprints
in the confessional booth,

which matched his DUI file.

- Using a belt
instead of his hands,

that would create more pain.

For some reason, Cecil wanted
the priest to suffer.

- Pretty brazen doing it
in broad daylight.

- Not really.

Cecil's been here before,

so he probably knew this place
would be empty during the day.

- So what does a disco theme
have to do

with a religious murder?

- That's a good question.
The disco theme is an odd one.

- And how does his family
play into all of this?

- Cecil doesn't fit
the profile.

A family annihilator
is a narcissist.

They kill their family
because they think

they can't survive without 'em.

Cecil is a narcissist,
but for whatever reason

he's chosen
not to kill himself yet.

- There's something else
he needs to do first.

- Exactly.

- Cecil's boss said
he was in pain,

which is why he didn't take
the promotion at work.

So maybe killing a priest is
his way of lashing out at God.

- The secretary says

that Father Jones
only worked here for two years.

He spent his entire career
in DC.

I looked him up,
and he was assigned

to three different churches,
but he mostly just worked

at various charities.

- Any connections to Cecil?
- No.

But speaking of Cecil,
I did find this.

Nine parking tickets
to his car,

all issued on expired meters
outside a wine shop in Queens,

all issued within
the last month.

- Maybe he's trying to drink
his problems away?

- Or maybe Father Jones

wasn't the only person
Cecil's been stalking.

- All right, you three
check out the neighborhood

for witnesses
and security cams.

Kris and I will check out
the wine shop.

See if it means anything.

[suspenseful music]

- That guy?
Yeah, he was, uh, here a lot.

Always badgering
one of my employees.

- Which one?
- Nora Bryant.

- Any idea what sparked
the harassment?

- No clue--
she said they were friends,

but she didn't want
to talk about it,

so I didn't push.

- His name is Cecil Walsh.

When's the last time
you saw him?

- Last time Nora worked.

- When was that?
- Last week.

She quit after the guy
showed up again.

This guy really killed
four people?

- So far, yeah.
- The world's messed up.

I just thought
he was an old flame,

or maybe Nora owed him money
or something.

- We're gonna need the address
where Nora's working now.

- And a photo of Nora,
if you have one.

- Of course.

*

- Any luck with the
neighborhood canvas?

- Negative. No cameras.

And nobody saw Cecil arriving

at the church
or leaving, either.

- We've got a lead.

I think a Nora Bryant
is Cecil's next target.

- We've been trying
to reach her,

but there's no answer
on her cell or her landline.

- What's the connection
between Nora and Cecil?

- They were friends.
They had a falling out.

- What was that about?
- I'm not sure.

But whatever it was
was bad enough

that Nora's been
trying to avoid him.

- We're heading to Nora's house
in Queens.

You guys head to her new job.

It's a mini-storage
in Brooklyn.

I just sent you the address
and Nora's photo.

- Copy.

- Three bubble wrap.
We got that.

14 of these vacuum bags.
We should double check those.

That's enough, right?

It's just your winter wardrobe.

- Nora?

- Cecil, what are you
doing here?

How did you even find me?

- I--I just wanna talk.

- No, no.
There's nothing to talk about.

Please just go.

- Is there a problem?
- Mind your business.

- I've seen your face.
You're on the news.

- He's lying.
- No, I saw him.

They say he killed
his whole family.

- What?
- I'm telling you that's him.

- Put the phone down.

- No.
- I said put it down!

[gunshot]
[Nora gasps]

- Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Please, please, please.

- Calm down. Calm down.

- Please don't hurt me, Cecil.
Please just let me go.

- I'm not going to hurt you.
I just want to talk.

Just not here, okay?

- No, I don't want
to go anywhere.

[tense music]

*

- That's Cecil's Lexus.
Heads up.

- I don't wanna go with you.
- No, no.

We're leaving right now.

- It's the girl from the photo.

- Gun!
[gunshots]

- Go, go! Run, Nora.

- He's heading out the back.
I'll go 'round.

- FBI!

- Man down!

*

- What happened?
- He had a gun.

He yanked me out of my car,
and he hit me.

- He's not inside.
- Did he have a woman with him?

- Yes--
he forced her into my car,

and he took my car.
He took my car.

- Okay, ma'am,
I need you to calm down.

We're going to find your car.

- FBI. Anybody home?

[suspenseful music]

Hello?

[phone ringing]
- I don't see anybody.

Ortiz, we're at
Nora Bryant's house.

Pretty sure she's not here.

- Cecil has her.
He showed up at her new job.

He shot the manager,

then he carjacked a lady
to get away.

PD's on the hunt.

- So he kidnapped Nora.

- We're going through
security footage now.

I'm sending it to your tablet.

- Cecil shoots the manager
without hesitating,

but the way he handles
Nora is different.

- He's gentle, comforting.

His hand even shakes
when he holds the gun at her.

The manager said
that Cecil told Nora

that he just wanted to talk.

- But he still grabbed her
at gunpoint, shaking or not.

So what's going on here?

- I'm not sure,
but if he has her,

then they can have that talk.

If Nora's smart,
she'll play along.

I gotta go.

Excuse me, sir. FBI.

You live here?
- Yes.

- Do you know Nora Bryant?

- Yeah, she's my fiancée.

Why, what's going on?

From the moment I met Cecil,

I knew something
was off about him.

- And why is that?

- He just--
he gave off bad vibes.

He seemed like a phony.

I told Nora to stop
hanging out with him,

but she didn't listen.

- Why do you think she didn't
take your advice?

- Nora sympathizes with people.

Her parents died
when she was young,

and she doesn't
have any siblings,

so she tends to overcompensate
with kindness and acceptance.

It's one of the reasons
I love her so much.

She tries to only see
the best in people.

- And how did she
and Cecil meet?

- He came into her store
about a month ago.

Said he was a wine lover.
I guess they hit it off.

The very next day, he texted
her wanting to grab coffee.

Then they--they started
going out for drinks,

dinners here and there,

meeting up for museum visits.

- So they were friends
at one point?

- Yes.

Yeah, I even went wine tasting
with them once.

She thought he was just lonely

and looking
for people to hang out with.

She was actually protective
of him in this weird way.

- And what caused
the friendship to sour?

- Our engagement.

I popped the question
a couple weeks ago.

Nora told Cecil,
and he flipped out.

He tried to convince her that
I wasn't good enough for her.

And he pushed hard for our
engagement to be called off.

- I'm sure
that didn't sit well.

- Cecil doesn't even know me.
He barely knows Nora.

I was livid.

I called him and I told him
to stop

meddling in our lives
and to stay the hell away.

- And that's when the stalking
and the harassment started?

- Yeah.

*

What if that's
what set Cecil off?

What if this is my fault?

- This is not your fault,
Daniel.

- You have to find Nora.
Please.

I can't lose her.

- Help! Somebody help me!
- Nora! Nora!

- Please!

- Calm down. Enough.
It's enough. Really.

- Help!
- It's gonna be okay.

- I just wanna go home. Please.

Please, I won't say anything
to anybody.

Please just let me go home.

- You are home.
This is ours now.

Hey.

It's gonna be okay.

I promise.

[tense music]

- No. No.
- [chuckles] Oh, my God.

- [sobbing]

- I have so much planned
for us,

but you need to eat first.
- I'm not hungry.

- Just try. I'll be back soon.

- Wait, where--
where are you going?

[sobbing]
Cecil, let me out of here!

Come on. Let me go.
[sobs]

- These are from
Nora's home computer.

She and Cecil having dinner
at the museum.

Even singing karaoke together.

- They look happy.

- Yeah, they were until
Nora told Cecil

she was engaged to Daniel.

- Well, why would he be upset?

They weren't dating.
They were just friends.

- In Nora's mind, maybe.

I think Cecil
was in love with her.

Could be why he started
distancing himself

from his family.

- And the source
of their marital problems.

- When Cecil finds out
Nora's engaged,

he goes into a jealous rage,
so he kills his family,

Kidnaps Nora to have her
all to himself.

- Not the best dating strategy.

- The problem is the priest.
I don't see where he fits in.

- Also the timeline.

Cecil found out about
the engagement, what,

two weeks ago?

So why'd he wait
to make his move?

- Well, maybe there was
another trigger.

- Maybe, but if Cecil's plan
is to remove all obstacles

to him and Nora,

that puts Daniel
in danger, right?

We have agents at their house?

- Yeah, and PD.

- All right.

Any other targets
we can think of?

- None that I can think of.

- What about tip line, BOLOs?

- All quiet.

- [exhales]

[suspenseful music]

*

- Hi, Eli.

- Who the hell are you?

- Meg sent me.

[both grunting]

- What--what are you--
[grunts]

*

- You should have loved her.

- [grunts]

- Why didn't you love her?

You should have loved her.

You Should have loved her!

- Hey, hey!
What the hell's going on?

- I'm calling the cops.

- Yeah, you better run!

- Fingerprints found
at your home match to this man.

Cecil Walsh.

- Is he the person
who attacked you?

- Yeah, that's the bastard.
- You know him?

- Never seen him
before last night.

- You were very fortunate.

He's killed four people
in the last two days.

- I wasn't scared of that punk.

- He also kidnapped
a young woman

by the name of Nora Bryant.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
He took Nora?

- You know her?

- Technically, she's my niece.

My sister and her husband
adopted her

when she was a baby.

Nine years later, they--they
both died in a car accident,

so I was stuck with her.

- What do you mean stuck?
- I never wanted kids.

What was I going to do?
Let the kid go into the system?

So I took her in.

Not that she ever
appreciated it.

- You two weren't close?
- We butted heads a lot.

Never really got along.

When she graduated high school,
she left.

I haven't seen her since.

- Why didn't you get along?

Mr. Bryant, what happened
between the two of you?

[pensive music]

*

- Were you abusing her?

- Hell, no. It wasn't that.
- No? What was it?

- Well, I drank too much.

I never once touched her.

I know I wasn't exactly
the best father.

I just, uh, I didn't know how.

I didn't want to
to begin with--

you know what, screw this!

Shouldn't you guys be out there
focused on tracking down

the maniac that put me
in this damn hospital?

- All right, why don't you
help us out with that?

Did Cecil mention anything
about your niece,

where he's holding her,
or anything like that?

- No, he just rambled on
about me not loving her,

which, you know, didn't make
any sense at the time.

[groans]

I guess he was
talking about Nora.

- Anything else?

- Yeah, he said somebody named
Meg sent him to my house.

- And who's Meg?

- Some crackpot named
Megan Taylor's been emailing me

for six weeks now claiming
to be Nora's birth mother.

And me and Nora's relationship
being what it is,

I just deleted 'em and didn't
give 'em another thought.

- And you still have
those emails?

- Yeah, they should be
in my--my trash folder.

- I'm about to send you
some emails.

I need you and Barnes to track
the IP address

from the sender, Megan Taylor.

She might be able to help us
find Nora and Cecil.

- Well, the emails were sent
from an IP address

at this location
to an Eli Bryant.

- Yeah,
the residents are allowed

to use the desktops
in the common room.

- So the woman that sent them
does live here, Megan Taylor?

- She did for six months,
but not anymore.

Meg struggled with addiction
most of her life

but managed to get clean.

Then she relapsed last week.
Missed curfew.

Came back high on meth.
I was forced to kick her out.

- Any idea where she landed?

- Yeah, the county morgue.

One of my other residents told
me she OD'd a few days ago.

- You ever seen Meg
with this guy?

His name's Cecil Walsh.

- Yeah, they were friends.
He's visited her a few times.

The last one right before
I had to kick Meg out.

These are the desktops
they use.

- Did Meg mention anything
to Cecil

about trying
to contact a daughter

she might've put up
for adoption?

- I'm sure she did.

Meg constantly talked about
wanting to reunite

with her baby girl
to anyone who would listen.

- Well, what did she say
about the baby?

- I don't know
if she was telling the truth

or the drugs talking,
but she said that

some Catholic school in DC
called St. Mary's Academy

had stole her kid,
and she was gonna get her back.

- How was she gonna do that?

- Well, she had already located
the adoptive parents

with the help of a nonprofit.

That's probably how she found
this Eli Bryant guy too,

whoever he is.

Thank you, Melissa.

These are all Meg's things.

No one's come to claim them,

and I don't have any contact
info for the next of kin.

So feel free to take it.

I need to go check
on a resident.

- Thanks.
- Thank you.

- Not much in here. Clothes.

Meg and Cecil.

They must be 15, 16 here.

- Meg and Cecil forever.

They weren't just friends.
They were in love.

Cecil and Meg went to the same
school in Upstate New York.

Cecil graduated from there,
but Meg didn't.

Meg graduated
from St. Mary's in DC.

We spoke to them.

Turns out it used to be
a school for unwed mothers.

- They confirm Meg
went there in 1986

when she was
six months pregnant.

- Was Cecil the father?

- Yes, but nobody contacted him
after Meg gave birth.

Instead they just put
baby Nora up for adoption.

- So Cecil does love Nora,
but it's not romantic.

It's because
she's his daughter.

- There's more.

Our priest, Father Jones,

he was on the board
of St. Mary's in the '80s.

He was head of
family placements.

He supervised Nora's adoption.

- I'm confused.
Help me try to break this down.

Six weeks ago,
Meg was clean and sober.

She decides she finally
wants to meet her daughter.

She has her name

and she locates Eli Bryant
through the nonprofit.

- Right, but Eli won't
talk to anyone.

- She finds Cecil.

- We don't know how yet.

- And suddenly Cecil
quits his job

and starts
trying to befriend Nora.

All goes well until
two weeks ago

when Cecil finds out
that Nora is engaged.

- Nora starts avoiding him.
- Cecil starts stalking her.

- And meanwhile, Meg relapses
and dies of an overdose.

And when was that?
- Three days ago,

right before Cecil
murdered his family.

- That's the trigger--
maybe Cecil's plan all along

was to get rid of the family
that he never loved

and replace them with one
that he always wanted.

But Meg's death ruined that
and sent him into a rage.

- And he kills the priest
because he blames him

for giving his daughter away.

- And attacks Eli for being
given the chance

to raise and love Nora,
but drove her away instead.

- When was Nora born?

- September 21, 1986.

- First day of fall.

Those pine cones
that Cecil kept,

how many were there?
- Um, 35.

- One for each year
of Nora's life.

Cecil was honoring the birth

of a daughter
that he never knew

but desperately wanted
to connect with.

- Well, now he has.
- Right.

The question is,

where is this father-daughter
reunion taking place?

[tense music]

- What was Ellen Walsh's
maiden name?

- Cecil's wife?

- Yeah, I just realized

we never ran her
through the property records.

- You know what,
I saw their marriage license

in the file here, hang on.

Cole. Ellen Marie Cole.

- Here we go.

Okay, Ellen inherited

a house from her parents
when they died.

She's the only name
on the deed,

but Cecil paid
the property taxes.

- Where is that?

- In Baldwin on Long Island.

It's probably
where he's holding Nora.

- Let's go.

- That's your mother, Megan.

But everybody called her Meg.

[sentimental music]

- She's pretty.
- Yeah.

- And the day I saw her,
I was head over heels in love,

and she felt the same about me.

I'd never met anyone
as smart and funny and kind.

She had the biggest heart,
just like someone else I know.

When she told me
she was pregnant with you...

[laughs]
I was scared.

But also excited,
and so was your mom.

We were young,
but we didn't care.

We were going to be a family.

*

And then they sent her away.

- Who did? Who sent her away?

- Her parents.

- Did they tell you
when I was born?

- No, no.

I knew your mom was due
in September.

So I knew there was a baby
out there that was mine.

I didn't know
if you were a boy or girl.

I didn't even know
where your mother was.

Then a--a couple of weeks ago
out of the blue,

she found me on Facebook.

And I found you.

- I never knew anything
about my birth parents.

Why didn't you just tell me
when we first met?

- I didn't want to scare you.
I--

I wanted you to know me first.

For 35 years, I have prayed
that I would find you,

and it finally happened.

And I have made sure that
no one will stand in our way.

Not my wife and step-kids.
Not your uncle.

No one's ever gonna stop us
from being a family ever again.

I promise.

I love you, Nora.

- Can I give you a hug?

*

[lock clicks]

- [sobs]

*

- [grunts]
- Ow!

No! Nora!
[gunshot]

- [gasping]

- Are you all right?
Are you okay?

[tense music]

W--wait!

Nora, wait!

*

[tense music]

- I was walking in the woods,
and I--I heard a gunshot.

Um, came from that house
right there.

Uh, a woman ran out,
and a man was chasing her.

- Where'd they go?
- Through the backyard there.

- All right.
Well, thank you for your help.

You guys take the path.
We'll cut through the yard.

*

- One of them must be shot.
We got blood.

- Nora!

Nora!

We need to work this out
so we can be a family!

That's all I ever wanted!

Nora, stop.
Th--this is my fault.

Please, Nora!

We need to work this out!

Can we do that please, Nora?

Nora?

- We got footprints and blood.

*

- [screams]
- No, wait.

- No!
- Wait. Talk to me.

- Cecil--
- Please wait.

- No, I don't want this!

I don't want you in my life.

[sobbing]
- Okay, okay, okay.

Maybe we weren't meant
to be a family here on Earth.

Maybe--maybe the only way
the three of us--

you, me, and Mom--could truly
be together is in heaven.

- No, no. No, no.

- I love you.

- No, no.

- I--I love you so much!
- No!

[gunshot]

- Shots fired. Suspect is down.

We need an ambulance
at 68 Hazel Way,

Baldwin on Long Island.

[solemn music]

*

- Nora, deep breaths in, okay?
In and out. In and out.

Can I see the wound?
Okay, an ambulance is coming.

It's going to be
all right, okay?

- Okay.
- Just keep breathing.

In and out. Okay.
- [breathes deeply]

- Well done.

Ambulance is coming.
Just keep breathing.

- Hey, honey.
Dinner will be ready in a few.

- I am starving.

Thank you.
- Mm.

- Hi, baby. I love you.

You okay?
- Not really.

I got another text from Renee.

- She say why she quit?

- Some nonsense about
wanting to go on tour

with her boyfriend.

Her timing really sucks.

- Don't worry about it.
We'll find someone else.

- Sheryll, I'm in the middle
of my first trial

with a huge client.

I don't have the time
or the energy

to start looking
for someone new right now.

- You don't need to find
a new nanny.

You got me right here.

I'm more than happy
to keep helping.

- Not a good idea.

- Baby girl,
let's, uh, go to the market.

I think we need some more flour
for our cookies.

- They're about to argue,
right?

- Ahh.

Come on.

- Why are you so
against my mom helping?

- She cooks,
she does the laundry.

- She drives me crazy.

- Everything I do is wrong.
I coddle Anais too much.

I don't use the right comb
for her hair.

I don't buy
the right hand soap.

And even dinner.
Do you know what she's making?

- That smells like pot roast.

- Exactly.

I told her that I can't eat
red meat right now

because it makes me nauseous.

And her response?

"Oh, that'll pass.
Drink ginger ale."

- She shouldn't have said that,
but--

- There's no but.

Sheryll, are you forgetting

that two years
after our wedding,

your mother still referred
to me as your special friend?

- Okay, I get it.

But she's competent
and she loves Anais.

And she also happens
to be free.

so we can save extra money
and...

Well, this is only temporary.

- Temporary until when?

- Until the baby comes,
then you can take the reins.

- Wait a minute.

Do you think
I'm taking maternity leave

and staying home
after I deliver?

- Yes.

That's what you promised when
we decided to conceive again.

Wait, what's going on here?

Why are you acting like
this wasn't the plan all along?

- That was before
I had a full-time job.

- Yeah, and before you decided
on a whim to go back to work.

You said you wanted to be
a stay-at-home mom.

So what?

You're not taking your leave?

- Why does it have to be me
to have to give up working?

What about you?

Can't you make a sacrifice for
our family and take time off?

[tense music]

- Babe, that wasn't the plan.

- Well, we need a new one then,
'cause this isn't working.
