Julie, make sure you pack
your science project

for your dad's tonight!

Alex!

Oh, hey.
Morning.

Morning.

You're ready early and
making breakfast that requires

something more than a toaster.

What's the occasion?

I thought you'd approve.

Okay.

I do.

Cassandra's been pushing me
to eat healthier.

High protein. Low carb.

Says it makes you feel better.

She's actually right.

Oh, yeah?

Go figure.

You know,

you two have been spending

a lot of time together lately.

Can we officially call her
your girlfriend now?

Or are kids these days
not doing that?

How about we just
call her Cassandra?

Okay.

Well, I'd like to meet her.Totally.

We should make that happen.

We should. Say...

tonight?

Julie and I are at Dad's.Well, how about

you and Cassandra come by here
for dinner first,

and I'll make something special? I mean,

it's kind of late notice,
she's probably got plans.

Why don't you ask?

I will.

Oh, you mean now?

Mm-hmm. Yeah, yeah.

I'll text her.

You promise you'll be cool?

I'm always cool.

Careful where you step.
Area's still a mess

from the storm last week.

Body washed down from up top?

Yeah, looks that way.

Deceased is Seaman Apprentice
Ella Baird.

Reported missing
a few months ago.

Yeah, she went for a hike
and never returned.

Guess we know why.

Morning, Commander Chase.

Not for some of us, I'm afraid.

Baird went missing
three months ago.

She been out here
that whole time?

Well, hard to tell.

I'd expect even
more decomposition

if she'd been exposed
to the elements.

So she was buried?

Almost certainly.

And probably

enclosed in some kind
of protective covering.

Cause of death?

I'll need a proper examination,

but so far I've seen
no evidence of foul play.

Other than being buried
in the middle of the woods

in a protective covering.

Yes, other than that.

Well, we'd appreciate
any information you can get us.

Her family's waited
a long time for answers.

It's my calling.

Body probably washed down
from up on that hill.

Yeah.

So, why is our team
still down here?

Is there an issue?

I was explaining that
the area up there

may be a crime scene,
so we need access.

And I was just explaining
that area is kapu...

Off-limits to everyone,
not just outsiders.

You're the Office
of Hawaiian Affairs.

Ava Nakama.
It's my job to protect

Native Hawaiian sites like this.

I understand, and it is our job

to investigate suspicious
deaths wherever they may lead.

May I ask,
why is this considered kapu?

It's a luakini heiau.

It's a temple

where sacrifices were made.

Human sacrifices?

Humans and animals, yes.

It's a sacred place.

And I am sensitive to that,

but we believe
the woman's body we found

may have washed down
from that sacred place.

Do you all have to go?

Well, my team and I can go up
first, take a look.

But eventually

these other folks will have
to get up there, too.

In shifts.

It's the best I can do.

Okay. Thank you.

We will treat the luakini

with the respect it deserves.

Pau Pele, pau mano.

Forget something this morning?

Hey, where'd you find it?

Behind the couch.

You wore the other one here?

I was running late, but I had
a backup shoe in the car,

so all good.

Backup shoe?

Yeah, don't you keep extras
in the car?

Yeah, of course. Extras.

As in plural, not just one.

I mean, how do you even know

if you're gonna lose
the left or the right?

Well, that's just
a silly question.

Oh! Am I interrupting

a glass slipper situation?

Not at all.

Were you able to get into
Baird's social media accounts?

Yeah, nothing suspicious.
She wasn't very active online.

Yeah, I heard the same
from her CO.

He said she was mostly a loner.

There's nothing wrong
with being a loner.

She did hit one site a lot.

Baird was really into hiking.

Usually posted
reviews and photos

on one of those
hiking trails apps.

Her last review was posted
the day she went missing.

She was hiking
in Pu'u Konahuanui.

Oh, that's interesting.

Why is that interesting?

'Cause her body was discovered
on the Kuaokala Trail.

Completely on the other side
of the island.

Couple hundred years ago,
this was a temple to Ku.

God of war.

There's a lot of legends
of angry spirits

around luakini heiau.

They actually
sacrificed people here?

Well, the priests believed
it would earn Ku's favor,

help the chief win battles.

Bet the ones being sacrificed
weren't too hip to that idea.

I'd be an angry spirit myself.

Wouldn't joke about that.
Not here.

Why? You worried
the ghosts are gonna get us?

Are you completely sure
they're not?

Got something.

There's hair inside.
Think it's our sailor's.

Baird might not be
the only victim.

I'm seeing three mounds
about the size of graves.

More bodies?

It's what it looks like.

We're gonna need
to excavate them.

Hawaiian Affairs rep's
not gonna like that.

It can't be helped.

We need to find out if
they're recent or historical.

Think I just found
the answer to that one.

This is such a violation.

I'm sorry.

We're doing everything we
can to protect the area.

Not your people.
Whoever did this...

...you need to catch them.

Yeah.

That's the last one.

So, four victims
in addition to Ella Baird.

Any idea what...?

One moment, Agent Boone.

Through your blessing,
grace and guidance,

through the power of the light
that streams from you:

May all the negative karma,
destructive emotions,

obscurations and blockages
be purified and removed.

It's the Tibetan Dying Prayer.

What?

I read.

You were asking
if I know how they died.

I don't.

There are no visible
signs of injury.

No bullet wounds,
ligature marks.

Could they have
been wrapped up first

and buried alive?

Oh, I like the way you think.

Uh, it's possible.

But I'd expect to see
more petechial hemorrhaging

if that was the case.

Any idea how long
they've been here?

Well, I'll test to confirm,
but I believe

they were all buried
at different times.

Your sailor appears to be
the most recent,

but the others span
at least five years.

So someone's been disposing
of victims here a long time.

Kapu area's a perfect spot
for hiding bodies.

I guess we're lucky
the storm came through.

Might never have found them.

You say luck, I say providence.

I get a feeling the spirits here

find this
as disturbing as we do.

What, does she think
the ghosts have shovels?

I'm telling you, man,
wouldn't joke about it.

Any progress identifying

the other victims?

We just tracked down
the last one.

Susan Chan and Trent Watkins

had licenses on them.

She was from Oklahoma,
he was from Idaho.

Both tourists? Yeah.

So were the other two.

We found them in
the missing persons databases.

Michael Ianucci
and Melanie Renaud.

She's French,

wasn't even reported missing
for a couple of months.

Did any of them have
a connection to Ella Baird?

Nothing except for
how they went missing.

All were on solo hikes
when they disappeared.

Not as unusual as you'd think.

Over 1,600 people go missing
in national parks every year.

How much time
between disappearances?

First one was

five years ago.

Second, year and a half later.

But barely six months
between the last two.

So, they're
increasing in frequency.

Mm-hmm.

I know Commander Chase hasn't

determined cause of death yet,

but someone went
to a lot of trouble

to hide those bodies.

And it seems like
there's a ritualistic element

to where they were buried.

Hey.

So, the last guy we just ID'd,
Michael Ianucci.

He was actually an airman
with the Coast Guard.

Did CGIS investigate?

Oh, yeah.

They put one of
their best agents on it.

A-Team, back together again!

Huh?

Jess, good to see you.

Yeah. Appreciate you coming

so quickly, Neil.

Well, time was of the essence.

Looks like we're looking at
a serial killer here, huh?

It's a possibility.

Well, it's good
you brought me in.

I'm kind of an expert.

Really? On serial killers?

I'm sort of the CGIS
resident profiler.

I took a seminar
at Quantico last year.

At the FBI Behavioral
Analysis Unit?

At the Hilton, but the guys
running it were former FBI.

Changed my life.

If you want,
I could work up a profile

on our unsub for the team.

Oh, boy. Why don't you just share

what you know about Airman
Ianucci's disappearance first?

Right. Excellent idea.

So, I did a pretty exhaustive
investigation.

I'm exhausted
just looking at it.

Ianucci was on leave in Hawai'i
two years ago.

He told a friend he was
gonna hike Waimano Falls,

and that was the last
anyone heard from him.

You conducted a search? Yeah,

we found his phone at the base
of a ravine, but no sign of him.

State Park Police
thought it was an accident?

Yeah, that was the assumption
at the time,

but I was never convinced.

Ianucci was a mountain climber.

He had plenty
of outdoor experience.

So, you kept investigating?

Yeah, I did, and eventually
I found a suspect.

I spoke to a woman
who was on the trail

the same day
Ianucci disappeared.

She said a scary guy

was following her.
Really freaked her out.

And you think he could have
done something to your airman?

Park rangers said
he'd harassed hikers before.

They call him Joe.
Nobody knows his real name.

He's just a-a vagrant

who lives out in the forests
all over Oahu.

Did you question him?

Couldn't track him down.

Evidently,
he's always on the move.

That would fit with the victims

all having been
in different areas.

Let's send this sketch
to the rangers again.

Maybe they can help locate him,
and I have to get going.

Ooh, you got big dinner plans?

Meeting my son's new girlfriend,
and I still have a meal to make.

I'll get the sketch out.

Thanks. What about us?

You want to order some takeout,
really dig in here?

I wish I could, but the
fam's expecting me for dinner.

Oh, great. Dinner with
your family sounds awesome.

Hey, Alex, sorry I'm late.

No worries, Mom.

Okay, I got everything
for the huli-huli chicken, so

it won't take me too long...

Hi.

Oh, Alex found some salmon,
so we put that on.

Made a little mango salsa.

It's just about done.

Wow.

Um... you must be...

Cassandra. It's so great
to finally meet you.

Yeah. You, too.

Everything smells wonderful.

Yeah, it's been a team effort.
Alex is an incredible sous-chef.

Alex is so helpful
in the kitchen.

Here, just relax.

Cheers.

It's fine, um...

Cass is 21.

21.

Oh, did you not mention that?

Pretty sure I did. No, you did not.

Sorry, I can totally
put the wine away if...

It's fine. Um, I just...

So, um, does that mean
that you're in college?

Actually, I skipped
the whole college thing.

Just wasn't really my vibe.

So... what is your vibe?

Well, Cass is about

being open to new experiences.

Trying to do a lot more
of that myself.

It's amazing
how much you learn just

going where
the feeling takes you.

Oh, yeah? Like,

my roommates and I,

we did this energy healing
retreat last month.

Super last-minute thing,

but it was life-changing.

She's actually teaching me

a lot of the techniques.
It's really cool.

I can show you, too,
if you want.

It will change your life,
seriously.

Is that right?

Um...

So... so, roommates?

Yeah, well, there's six of us.
It's kind of crazy,

but rents are just
so insane, right?

Okay, let's eat.
We've got this, Jane.

So, just go ahead
and have a seat.

Dr. Chase?

Are you here?

Hello?

Anybody here?

The hamsa.

A protection
against evil spirits.

Oh.

That sounds useful.

It can be.

What can I do for you,
Agent Tara?

Uh, I was...

heading out. I thought
I'd see if you determined

cause of death. Well, there was

nothing out of the ordinary
in the tox screens,

and no indications
of external injuries,

other than some abrasions

and bruising on the extremities.

Defensive wound?

No, more consistent
with injuries

that might have happened
if they'd been running

and fell.

You think they might
have been chased?

I think that's something
I can't possibly know,

and you will have to find out.

Okay, so no cause of death.

I didn't say that.

That's her heart.

Indeed. And I suppose there is

an excellent reason
you're showing that to me

in a not-at-all creepy way?

While the decomposition makes
it impossible to be certain,

I believe Ms. Baird
and all the other victims

died of sudden cardiac arrest.

Their hearts stopped?

But they were all
pretty young and healthy.

How could that happen?

If you want my
very unscientific opinion,

it appears they were,
quite literally,

scared to death.

Morning.Morning.

Hear anything
from the State Park Police? Yeah, they say

this Joe guy who Pike suspects

is our "unsub" is still around.

Is he dangerous?

Yeah, sounds like it.
Said he's become

increasingly erratic
over the years.

Harassing hikers.

Destroying park property.

They know where he is?

Not yet, but they're looking.

And Commander Chase

pulled all the victims'
medical records.

None had preexisting
conditions that

might've led to cardiac arrest.

Okay, so we got
a group of lone hikers,

all in good shape.

What else do they have
in common?

Not much.

Different ethnicities,
different backgrounds.

Men and women.

It's an unusual assortment
for a serial killer.

Maybe targeted simply because
they were alone and vulnerable.

Which would point even more

to this vagrant Joe. I mean,
he's lived all over the island.

He'd know about
the kapu area, too.

We need to find him.

Let's widen our net.

Search for similar deaths
outside Hawai'i.

You think this killer's
done it before?

We need to find out.

I'm on it, and
I'll get with Whistler,

see if FBI's ViCAP has anything.

Or you can just ask Pike,

since, evidently,
he's an "expert."

I will stick with Whistler.

So... how did last night go?

Don't ever let
your kids grow up. Oh...

New girlfriend that bad?

There's nothing bad about her.
Cassandra's sweet.

A little naive.

She thinks she's got
the world figured out.

Sounds like most teens.

Except she's not a teen.

She's 21.

Really?

Didn't think college girls

wanted to date
guys in high school.

Oh, not in college. She skipped
it, thinks it's overrated.

Cass is more of a free spirit
who doesn't seem to have

a care in the world.

Well, I can see why
you hate her. I don't.

I just...

I could already see
the influence

that she has over Alex,

and her life is a lot different

than the one he's been planning.

So, what are you gonna do?

Still trying to figure that out.

I mean, he is 18.

Well, if Gracie was 18

and started dating
some guy in his 20s,

you can bet
I'd tell her how I felt.

Would she listen?

Being a bad guy sometimes
comes with the job, right?

Oh, looks like park rangers
have eyes on Pike's suspect.

I got to go. All right.

Keep me updated.Always.

So, this whole

ghost thing,
you really believe all that?

I try to keep an open mind.

I've seen a lot of weird things.

Weird how?

Like, "I don't really know how"

"to explain what
just happened" weird.

You have, too, haven't you? No.

Nothing I can remember.Oh.

Oh, right, right.

I mean, sure, maybe weird.Mm.

Doesn't mean it was
a ghost or a spirit.

Well, what happened?

Nothing.

Dude, you brought
this up. What...

Clearly, you want to tell me.
What happened?

I was just trying
to make conversation.

All right, fine.

There was this one time... I knew it. What?

We took a vacation
in the Smoky Mountains.

Uh... whole family
went camping.

Jake and I were out on
the trail, just the two of us.

All of a sudden,
I turn around, and...

he's gone.

How old was he?

Four.

I yelled for him,

looked... everywhere.

I couldn't find him.

That's scary. The worst.

For whatever reason, I-I started

thinking about my grandfather.

He died when I was, like, 15,

but he taught me everything
about the woods,

and I just closed my eyes

and asked for help.

But you got it?

Yeah, when I opened my eyes,
I just kind of knew...

the way to go.

I found Jake five minutes later.

Grandpa came through.

I don't know, I mean,
probably instinct.

Or maybe

I heard something
in my subconscious.

I don't know, something, but...

Dude, which one of us
are you trying to convince?

This is your turn-off here.

Whoa.

I know, it smells
incredible, right?

It's lemon and eucalyptus.
It's all-natural. You want some?

No. I'm good.
Are you sure?

Have you seen the bugs
in these woods?

Joe's not the only killer
out there.

Have you talk to the
rangers yet? Yeah,

they spotted Joe about
a half mile off the main trail,

but they waited for us
to make a move.

Did you make your
three wishes yet?

No.

Three wishes? Yeah,

because we had
fettu-genie Alfredo last night.

It was just a little joke
we had working at dinner.

Jess refused to make any wishes.

So, you had dinner at Jesse's?

Yeah, Heather's
an amazing chef, man.

Her Alfredo, squisito.

Oh, yeah? Okay.

Hey, maybe one day I'll get
invited, and I will find out.

Squad goals, bro.

Yeah.

He wasn't exactly invited.

Thanks for meeting us.
Yeah.

Special Agent Boone.
This is Holman.

Hey. How are you?

Good. If you guys want
any chance of finding Joe,

we need to hurry.

Either of you had run-ins
with this guy before?

Oh, sure. Yeah, most of us have
at one point or another.

Joe's not all there.
Few screws loose.

Dangerous? Can be.

Scares the hell out of people.

Yelling and chasing them off.

Yeah, that would totally fit
my profile.

Profile? He means description.

Of our unsub. Unsub?

He means suspect.
Based on my extensive knowledge

of serial killers,
we are looking for a white male,

35 to 60, highly mobile
with anger issues.

Huh. Sounds like Joe.

Or every other
serial killer ever.

How about we go find him?

Hey, Neil.

Exactly how long was this
serial killer seminar you took?

Oh, it was one weekend,

but it was, like, very intense.

Very intense.

At this clearing,
we might want to split up.

Cover more ground.

We'll follow your lead.
You know the area.

You know, John Wayne Gacy

buried his victims
under his own house.

Yeah, Gacy was what we call
a hedonistic type killer.

Wow.
You really know your stuff.

Coast Guard handle
a lot of serial cases?

Uh, I wouldn't say a lot... Look out!

Get the hell out of here!

Everyone okay?

Yeah. He's just
behind those trees.

Put that weapon down, Joe.

We're State Park Police.

And federal agents.

You want to lock me up.

Joe, we just want to talk.

We need to ask you
some questions, okay?

Put that thing down,

or we start firing back.

You wouldn't
be the first to try.

Is that what happened
with the woman in Konahuanui?

Was she trying to hurt you?

You know about her?

We know about the others, too.

I didn't kill anyone,

the kupuadid.

Like the mystical spirit?

Told you he was nuts.

I saw it with my
own eyes. Like a nightmare,

head of a beast,

eyes as red as burning coals.

Tusks. It's out here now.

As in, presently?

It's everywhere.

Joe, we can help you.

We can keep you safe.

We just need you to come out.

Drop the bow, Joe!

Don't shoot!

Joe, stop.

Where'd he go?

Damn it.

No, I don't know anything
about her roommates.

Yeah, I know, but...

That's what I'm saying, Daniel,

and Alex will accuse me of not
trusting him again.

Hey, can we finish this later?

Okay, I will. Bye. Come in.

Alex problems? Not a problem for him.

He's dating a 21-year-old
and thinks

she's lots smarter
than his parents.

Ah, young love.

I once dated a girl
who convinced me to move

to a ranch in Argentina.

Ernie Malik, gaucho.

I'd pay good money to see that.

Ah, lasted three weeks.
Wasn't my thing.

Though I did learn I was
something of a llama whisperer.

You-you think Alex is doing
this to antagonize you?

No, not at all.
This isn't rebellion.

So, maybe give it some time.

Young love is rarely
lasting love.

Sitting back and doing nothing's
not my strong suit.

Can't argue that.

But you don't want to force Alex
to pick a side.

Because I might not like
the side he picks?

Okay, look, I...

I'm assuming that
you didn't come up here

to discuss my son's love life.

I saw Jesse and Kai's report

on the guy in the woods.
That kupuahe described.

Right, it sounded like
he was experiencing

some delusional ideation,

possibly schizophrenia
or bipolar disorder.

Could be, but what if he's not?

A kupua

is a mystical being
in Hawaiian mythology

that can take on
different bodies and shapes.

And, what, you're saying
this one's real?

University's doing this big

mammal migration study
in Konahuanui.

They installed motion-activated

cameras all over that area.

I got the footage from the night
Ella Baird went missing.

What's that?

Wait for it.

Joe's kupua.
I mean,

he might still be delusional.
That could be him.

Or he's our only witness.

Either way, we need to find him

again and hold
onto him this time.

State Park Police
didn't know where his camp was.

He could be anywhere.

Then we're gonna need
some support.

Let's take another sweep.

We'll come around
from the east side.

Hold on, what's that?

Where?

Through that clearing.

Yeah, that could be him.

I'll geomark the location
and have Kai meet us.

All right, let's nest this bird.

Can't you just say "land"?

All right, we got to be careful.

Even if Joe's not the killer,
he's dangerous.

Best chance is to
take him quick.

- Pike, cover us.
- Yeah.

He's not here.

He must be close.

Forest is huge.
I'm gonna call for backup.

Guys. Guys. I'll loop Tennant in.
Let her know that...

We're not gonna need backup.

So, these could all be
additional victims?

Seems like it.

All were reported missing,
like the ones here on island.

If they're all connected...

It means the killer's been
getting away with this

even longer than we thought.

These are the possibles
you found on ViCAP?

Yeah, Whistler also talked to

the experts at the
Behavioral Analysis Unit.

Besides tracking down
known serial killers,

they keep tabs on cases that

might indicate an unidentified
killer at work.

I'm surprised BAU
was willing to share.

Well, I did ask nicely,

and I promised you'd share back.

Of course. I'm just glad that

they didn't try
to take the case away.

They did try.

And you convinced them not to?

Well, I may still be new
to the Bureau, but

office politics are my jam.

All right, what do we have?

Five cases of hikers who
went missing when out alone.

All occurred anywhere
from five to ten years ago.

Which would have been before
our earliest victim here.

Right, the timeline fits.

But no bodies were found,
so the Bureau wasn't even sure

they could be classified
as homicides.

Means the killer
stayed under the radar

for over a decade.

It has to be someone
knowledgeable about

wilderness areas.

We've cross-referenced

guides, workers, volunteers,

anyone who might have worked
in multiple locations

where the victims disappeared.

Including state
and federal park police?

Checked the national database,

but, so far, no one working
one of the older locations

is here in Hawai'i.

Unfortunately, all of these
are different

jurisdictions, and a lot
of the records aren't digitized.

Chase has something.

Keep at it.

Hey, Carla.

Thanks for getting
on this so fast.

Yeah, of course. We were able
to ID your victim.

His prints came back as...

Joseph Hoffman.

He was Army.

In and out
of treatment for years

after he was discharged.
Possibly found some peace

in the forest.

I hope so.

What can you tell me
about his death?

Abrasions on the hands and arms
indicate a scuffle

before he died. So, he fought his killer?

Yes, and it wasn't
any angry spirit.

I was finally able
to do a full lab workup.

Mr. Hoffman
and the other victims

were, indeed, scared to death,

but they had help.

Testing showed he had extremely

high levels of dihydroxyphenyl-
methylaminoethanol

in his system. That's a mouthful.

Adrenaline,
a naturally-occurring hormone,

which is why it didn't
show up as unusual

in the tests
on the previous victims.

How high a level?

Oh, massive. As if it was
injected into his system.

Not fatal by itself,
but resulting

in rapid onset of hypertension
and tachycardia.

Sending the body's fight-or-
flight response into overdrive.

Could be why the killer
uses the mask...

To terrify his victims.

Accelerating their heart rates
to catastrophic levels.

Their fear is his high.

And this is why
I don't worry too much

about restless spirits.

The real-life monsters
are scary enough.

What exactly are we
looking for here?

Anything the killer
might've touched.

If we can find DNA or a print,

we may be able to identify him.

I'll start processing
the area around the tent.

Where's his bow and arrows?

He would've kept those
close, right?

That's a good point.

Yeah, they're not here.

Could mean the killer actually

found him somewhere else
in the woods.

And Joe ran and made it back
to his camp before he died.

So, this might not be
the crime scene.

Okay, why don't we split up,
search the area?

Maybe we'll find it.Right.

Let's split up
and go in different directions.

That way, the killer can
pick us off one by one.

I'm kidding.

Please, we're federal agents
with guns.

I'll take the high road.

Try sitting through
a whole dinner with him.

Do federal agents

take a class on how to write
excruciatingly boring reports?

For most of us,
it comes naturally.

I'm not finding any connections

between the victims.
Some of the same

social media apps,
but none of the same friends.

Nothing in their backgrounds,

jobs... I'm sorry, am I
excruciatingly boring, too?

Yeah.

Oh, I mean, no. You're the
least boring person I know.

Nice save. Look at this.

These are the physical copies
of the two oldest cases

that the FBI sent over.

They were never digitized.

Blasphemy.

The first disappearance
was ten years ago

in Utah. There's
a witness statement

from a park maintenance worker

who was the last person
to see the missing woman.

Bryson Stone.
Mm-hmm.

He was never a suspect,
but take a look

at this case in Colorado
a year later.

One of the employees
who was first on the scene

was a park guide.

B. Stone. Think it's the same person?

Let's find out.

Changing jobs would've made it

harder to connect him
to all the disappearances.

Here he is, Bryson Stone.

What's he doing now?

He's moved up
the ladder a few rungs.

Stone's with the
State Park Police,

right here in Hawai'i.

Kai.

I think I found it.

Oh, I got you.

Kai, you got an evidence bag?

I'm gonna need that back.

I found his phone, but
no Pike. He's gone, boss.

We got no sign of him.
Should we put out a BOLO?

Can't risk it.
Stone has a police radio

with him.
He'll kill Pike right away

if he figures we're on to him.

Hey, we're gonna find him, okay?

Any luck tracking Stone?

No signal. He must've
turned his phone off.

There's a thousand back roads

through the parks on the island.

Stone knows them all.

He could be anywhere. Anything
from the State Park Police?

They confirmed Stone's
vehicle has GPS.

They're trying to locate it.

Yes, I'm here.
Give it to me.

Jesse, Kai,
we might have something.

Got him.

He's in Konahuanui.

Sending the coordinates now.

Not such a know-it-all now,
are you?

Get away from me.

Oh, we are just getting started.

I'm gonna cut you apart

piece by piece.

No.

I know what you're doing.

You're a thrill killer.

You're process-focused
and organized.

You want me to feel helpless.

What I want you to do

is run!

They're not here. Come on.

Don't stop!

You stop...

you die.

I warned you!

Run!

This is... what he wants.

Come on, Neil.

Get it together.

You're a special agent
of the United States

Coast Guard!

It's okay, buddy, we got you.

Deep breaths.
You got to calm down.

Wait, wait.

My profile...

was so right.

Come on.

We just finished
at Bryson Stone's apartment.

He was one twisted ranger.

The mask and machete
kind of gave that away.

It was basically
a serial killer smorgasbord.

BDSM magazines,
disgusting videos.

Ugh, I feel like
I need a shower.

Ugh.

Scary how long
he got away with it.

Even scarier to think how much
longer he might've kept going.

But do you notice how
it wasn't any "angry spirits"

that took Stone down?

I mean, it was just
good old-fashioned police work.

Yeah, maybe, or...

maybe they were pulling
some strings behind the scenes.

Right.

Hey, all I'm saying is,

it doesn't hurt
to show some respect.

Guess who just got a clean

bill of health from the doctor.

Apparently, I have the heart
of a 20-year-old.

Well, I'm glad you're okay.Thanks.

Hey, um...

I just want to say
thank you so much

for being there
for me today, buddy.

You, too, Kai.

It's what we do.

Hey, you up for a drink
to celebrate?

- Sure.
- Hey, I'm in.

Jesse? No, not me. I got
to take a rain check.

This is hysterical.

Did Heather send you the meme
of the chihuahua with the wig?

No, she knows I hate those.Wait...

Why? Did she send it to you? Yeah.

This is even funnier than
the one she sent this morning.

You're texting with my wife?

Oh, yeah. She's actually

gonna set me up with one
of her friends. Marcie?

She sounds incredible.

Ooh, that is

so great. You two should
totally go on a double date.

What? No...
Hey, if it goes well,

maybe you could all
go away for, like,

a whole weekend or something?

Mm-hmm. So, tell me
all about this Marcie.

So, she's into true crime, so
I've got a perfect icebreaker.

Think those spirits
may not be too happy with you.

No, you don't ever have
to worry about that.

Okay, I am here for
any questions you may have.

Yes.

Okay.

Again, I am so sorry
for your loss.

Bye.

You didn't even
make it to your car.

Father of one of the victims
called me on my way out.

Felt like he deserved
my full attention.

Kind of glad that's your job
and not mine.

You know, I think of it
as a privilege,

speaking to the next of kin.

Because it is
a constant reminder

to appreciate what we have.

Said like a true stoic.

I'm not sure I consider
myself stoic.

Oh, no, it's-it's a good thing.

So, why doesn't it
sound like it?

Stoics have been
terribly misunderstood.

Like me, back in middle school.

They accept misfortune

because it teaches you
not to take for granted

all the good things
in your life.

All right, well, see, that

I can get on board with.

See? Stoic.
Mm.

Still not feeling the word.

They also believe that
going naked in the cold

and starving oneself build
character, so...

...not a perfect philosophy.Okay.

Hey, tiger.

Hey.

Doing some homework?

Nah, it's just
something Cass read.

She thought I might like it.

Well, what do you
think about it?

It's cool.

Not very far into it.

So...

So...?

What do you think of her?

Cassandra?
Mom.

Right.

I'll be honest,
her age threw me...

It shouldn't matter. I'm 18.

But...

she clearly makes you happy.

And that's what really matters.

So, you like her?

I do.

Great, 'cause she's here.

Now?
Mm-hmm.

Her text says
she's bringing a surprise.

Hey.
Hey, handsome.

Hi, Jane.
Hi.

I hope you like cream puffs.

I got a whole box from Liliha.

Who doesn't love
a good cream puff?
