I'm not late, Melissa.

Not yet. You've got
less than five minutes.

How far are you?

Almost half a mile.
I'll make it.

Beth Hogan

showing up on time?

And breaking my mile record.

Well, some of us
can't be late for school.

Be there sooner
if I wasn't talking to you.

Beth? What happened? You okay?

Beth?

♪ Boom, boom, boom, boom

♪ Bang, bang, bang, bang

♪ Boom, boom, boom, boom

♪ How, how, how, how

♪ Hey, hey

♪ You gotta come on.

Entire park's on lockdown.
What do you know?

Beth Hogan, 15, daughter of
Navy Commander Claire Hogan,

out on a run.

Friend says she
just disappeared.

-Left her phone behind.
-Canvass the area?

Yeah. No signs of
injury or struggle,

but no sign of Beth,
-either-- just her phone.
-Mm.

Hopefully Sebastiancan pull something off of it.

Beth was trainingfor cross-country.

-Works out in the parkevery other day.
-Yeah.

Predictable routinemade her an easy target.

Have Gregorio run a report onknown sex offenders in Mid-City.

Already on it. Plus,
Patton's collecting footage

from cameras
-all around the area.
-Good.

-The mother here?
-Yeah.

Hannah's talkingto her now.

Beth is an independent girl.
She's been coming here to run

for three years, no problems.

Has Beth been actingdifferently lately?

Anxiety? Distant?

No. She's just been Beth,
same girl as always.

Shouldn't we
be out looking?

-I need to find her.
-We got a dozen cops

and a K-9 unit out there
right now, Commander Hogan,

looking for your daughter.

Who are you?

-Special Agent Pride.
-Well,

Special Agent Pride,
I'm not so sure

how the cops will
know where to look.

-They don't know her.
-That's right.

That's why we're lookingfor any insight you can give us.

Where might Beth goif she was trying to get away?

She wouldn't.

She's a good kid-- she focused
on studying and running.

Does she have any other friends
from school other than Melissa?

We homeschool her. She doesn't
have a lot of friends.

-Boys?
-No. Listen,

you keep acting like she's
doing this on her own.

What if someone took her?

That is why we have
the dozen cops, Commander.

Mom!

-Who's that?
-It's Simone, my
other daughter.

I asked her to come.

What happened?

We don't know.
Have you heard from Beth?

Not for a few days.

Anything bothering her recently?

Yeah, of course.

Simone.

-You didn't tell them?
-Tell us what?

My mom deploys tomorrow
for six months,

which means Beth was about
to be stuck with Frank.

Who's Frank?
My ex-husband, Frank Hogan.

-Simone and Beth's father.
-By blood only.

Stop it!

Frank gets custody
when I deploy.

It's screwed up.

He is paranoia personified.

No one should have
-to live with that.
-You saying

that Beth and your father
don't get along?

Beth loves staying
with him.

'Cause she's a sweet girl
who wants you to feel okay

-about abandoning her.
-That is cruel.

And you know how much Frank has
-changed since you were young.
-Mom,

-you see what you want to see.
-Whoa, okay,
all right.

Hey, whoa,
let's just stay

on task here.

We're trying to figure out
what happened.

-Okay, let's say

that she ran. Why wouldshe leave her cell phone?

She knows her phone
can be tracked.

That's the kind of crap you
learn when you're raised

by a survivalist nut ...e didn't run!

Okay. All right, listen,
we're gonna go back to NCISSimone!

and talk about thisa little bit more,

in private.

-Everyone, please!
-Housing inequality
was an issue

in Orleans Parish
-before COVID, Suzanne.
-Exactly why we need to extend

the city's eviction moratorium.
By bankrupting landlords? No.

Lining their pockets instead?

-This is ridiculous, Dennis.
-We won't get
anywhere yelling

-at each other.
-I'll stop yelling when
we start addressing

-the real problems.
-The real problem

is getting this group to agree

on anything other than lunch.

I hope you're not blaming me.

Well, if she isn't, I am.

-This is unbelievable.
-Every time you walk in a room

you think your idea
is the onlyYou two, listen...

good one here.

-Is the gavel necessary?
-I am trying

to keep things civil,
but you two going

at each other's throats
is not helping.

Well, Dr. Wade implying

we've been spinningour wheels

isn't very civil, is it?

I'm not implying anything.
I'm stating a fact.

I've been on this commission
a month,

and we haven't presented
any new recommendations.

Loretta's right. I'd
like to remind everyone

that, while Mayor Taylor
was pleased with our proposal

to eliminate cash bail,

she's still expecting
much overdue progress.

Okay, so what
are we doing wrong here?

This.

Rewriting eviction laws.

Building new affordable housing.

Fighting mortgage
interest deductions.

All warranted areas of reform.

Yes. But extremely complex.

Which is why
we can't agree on one.

Then what are you suggesting?

We need to start from scratch.

-Oh, dear Lord.
-You're kidding, right?

-We're not starting over.
-No, we've got some things

we need to correct,
but starting over?

Will you stop with
the damn gavel?

Patton able to pull anything
off the traffic cams

-near City Park?
-Nothing yet.

And we checked the sex offender
registry in Mid-City.

Only got one hit, and the creep
was at court-mandated therapy

at the time
of Beth's disappearance.

Could be the sister's right.

You know,
maybe she ran away.

You think she left her phone
so she couldn't be tracked?

Beth's 15 years old,
not Jason Bourne.

Wow, I guess movie night's
paying off.

If Beth
didn't run away,

someone she's close with
could have her.

What do we know
about the family?

Beth's mom

has been a helo pilot
and squadron commander

for five years.

Spotless record,
zero complaints,

no access to military secrets
that might make her a target.

Yeah, her other daughter,
Simone, she works as a paralegal

at Esparza and Sons
in contract litigation.

She keeps mostly to herself.

Which leaves
the ex-husband, Frank.

And that's where it gets weird.

Frank Hogan was
with the Army Corps

of Engineers
before he retired 15 years ago.

Since then, nothing.

Nothing, as in ...thing, as in

no taxes, no credit cards,
no phone bill, nothing.

SEBASTIAN Yeah, Franklin's off the grid.

According to Commander Hogan,

he can only be reached
through a ham radio.

-Which he's not answering.
And that's why Hanna

and Carter are going to
visit him in the boonies.

What, Frank's some kind
of a survivalist?

Yeah, and according to
the photos on Beth's phone,

so is she.
Look at this.

This kid can really
handle herself.

Kind of wish I was
like that growing up.

What?
A doomsday prepper?

Yeah. I mean, you
can't fault someone

for wanting to be prepared
for society's downfall.

Can't I?

Let's double back with Mom,

see what she can tell us
about Frank.

Not surprised

Frank's not answering the radio.

-He's offline a lot.
-Sounds unpredictable.

You think maybe he took Beth
without your knowledge?

Why would he do that?

He was gonna have her
for the next six months.

From what we understand,

your ex hasn't always
been this eccentric.

What happened?

August 2005 happened.

Katrina.

We lost our home,
our savings.

We were broke
with an 11-year-old

and a baby on the way.

Painful times.

Simone and I

kept our heads up, marched on,
but for Frank...

Not so easy?

He felt betrayed

by FEMA's response.

By the government.

Frank quit the Army
a few months later,

right after Beth was born.

Said we could only rely
on ourselves.

He moved us to Folsom,
built a cabin.

What little money we had left
we used for canned goods

baby food and guns.

Well, that's a big change.

With a newborn.

I'm guessing you weren't
completely on board.

I tried.

I wanted to believe in him.

But his paranoia, isolation,

it took a toll,
especially on Simone.

So after a year,
I took the girls and left.

I filed for divorce.

Frank got joint custody?

He fought hard for it.

He appeared at the hearing
representing himself.

He is nothing if not persuasive.

So, the girls
spent weekends up there,

at least until Simone got older
and refused to go back.

-She's not his biggest fan?
-It's hard to blame her.

She lost the dad
she'd grown up with.

What about you?

Still holding

any resentment
towards Frank?

The man I loved and married
changed overnight.

I've gone through
every emotion there is.

I could say a lot of things
about my ex-husband,

but there is one thing for sure.

He loves his children.

No cell service,
no roads,

no other humans for a mile.
Very suspicious.

You know it is not a crime
to live in the woods, right?

Maybe not,
but survivalism is a gateway

to any number of felonies.

You're so cynical.

Hey, I've been meaning
to thank you.

For what?

For helping me deal
with my mother a few weeks back.

I know it wasn't
very professional of me

to bring a personal matter
to you like that,

but it meant a lot.

Carter, I'm touched.

I-I just ask you

to say it one more time

-so I could record it.
-Oh, God.

-For posterity.
-Oh, look...

Stop.

You two are trespassing!

This is private property.

Frank Hogan?

We're federal agents
from NCIS.

-Put the rifle down.
-I don't care

-who you are.
We're here

about Beth.

She's gone.

What do you mean, gone?

If you put the rifle down,
we'll tell you.

She was out, running.

She disappeared
near City Park.

She here with you?

No.
When'd this happen?

Early morning.

Been trying
to reach you all day.

I was, uh... hunting.

You... you think that
she was taken?

We don't know.

She may have run.

Have you had any contact with
your daughter, Mr. Hogan?

Well, I'’d obviously
tell you if I had.

Would you?

Do you know of anything that
may have set her off recently?

That may have
prompted her to run?

No. Beth wouldn't
run from her problems.

If something was wrong,
she'’d come to me.

Yeah, if she could reach you.

We have some questions.

Yeah.

Well, so do I.

Feel like Commander Hogan
may have undersold him.

So, Carter

and Khoury are bringing
Frank Hogan back here.

You found something?

Yeah, I did,
and you'’re not gonna like it.

So, Patton searched
all the traffic cam footage

and spotted this SUV.
Pulled out of City Park

a few minutes after
Beth'’s disappearance.

Yeah, well, those windows
are pretty dark.

Exactly. But I had an idea.
I used a infrared filter

to pierce the tint.

Beth.

She didn'’t run.

She was abducted.

Claire.

Have you
heard from her?

No, not for a few days.

Where have you been?
You promised

you'’d always be reachable.

She'’s not even with me yet.

You said you have an update?

Yeah.

Why don'’t you have a seat?

I'’m good.

There's no way to
put this lightly.

We've discovered footage

that confirms Beth was abducted.

Oh, my God.
By who?

Not sure yet.

Appears to be
a professional crew.

Coordinated.

Which is why we
need you both to think.

Is there anyone you can
think of that might have

a grudge with
the family or Beth?

Like enemies?
No.

Well, that'’s a quick answer
for a complicated question.

It'’s an easy answer for me.
How about you, Frank?

-Oh, you think this is my fault?
-I didn'’t say that.

Because, if anything,
this is on you.

-How the hellis this on me?!
-Okay, guys,

-settle down.
You'’re the one who insisted

on raising her in the city.
Staying connected to the world.

Connections lead

-to problems.
-What connections?

She'’s homeschooled
because of you.

She barely has friends
because of you.

She hardly even goes out.

Except to run.

Which is when she got taken.

I told you

this city isn'’t safe.

Okay, that's enough.

All that matters
right now

is that we figure out
who took Beth

and we get her back.

All right.

-I want to help with the search.
-Great.

Then we need you
to cooperate with us.

What can we do?

We need permission
to tap your phone

in the event
of a ransom demand.

-Ransom?
-Yeah, that's most likely

-the next step.
-So, what, we just

sit around
and hope for the best?

I know it'’s hard.

But I promise you
that my team and I

will do everything we can

to bring Beth home.

Oh, my God.

Hey. Hey.

Yeah, okay, thanks.

That was NOPD. They just
expanded their search grid.

Still no sign
of that mystery SUV.

Well, we may not know
where the SUV is, but I was able

to track the plates back
to where it came from.

It was rented using
a corporate account.

-Who does the account belong to?
-Uh, some company

called Recovery
Multinational.

Professional kidnapping business.

-Is that a thing?
Yeah, sure.

Privately-funded agencies
that specialize

in the recovery
of children or adults.

Say a disgruntled father flees
the country with his child.

Even with the
Hague Convention,

mom is facing
a bureaucratic uphill battle

trying to get her kid back.

So she hires
Recovery Multinational.

They tend to operate
overseas, though.

Well, who would hire
a company like this

to snatch Beth?

We need to get in touch
with them to find out.

I oversee every operation

my agency takes on.

I can assure you
we don'’t operate in the States.

We have a rental car agreement
that says otherwise.

Recoveries on U.S. soil
carry hefty legal ramifications.

Like the ones you'’ll face if
-you don'’t come clean with us.
-An SUV used

in the abduction of an American
teenager in broad daylight

was rented in New Orleans
using one of your agency'’s

corporate accounts.

-You said broad daylight.
That'’s right.

Mid-morning.

That'’s not our style.

We specialize
in surgical recovery.

Oh, well, I'’m sure
you'’re just perfect every time.

Bear with me.

I did have one agent
who was... problematic.

Joel Cadiff.

He was one of my best.

But he's not anymore?

He specialized
in complicated jobs.

Willing to take risks.

But he was
increasingly reckless.

So you let him go.

Is it possible that Joel Cadiff
may still have access

to your
company accounts?

I have a lot of agents
with access to that account.

Of course. It'’s possible.

Well, I'’m as frustrated

as you and the mayor are, Esme,

but progress takes time.

It also takes action.

And without Dwayne
in that room, you'’re

the only other person
who seems to get that.

I'm doing the best I can.

But I'’m only one voice,

and it'’s like
herding cats.

I'’ll see what I can do.

Thanks, Loretta.

what are you doing?
Aren't those my things?

I'’m finally

putting them to good use.
But don'’t worry,

I'’m wiping all the memory clean.

Ah. If this is your plan
for the new Call of Duty,

may I suggest a part-time job

or the chores
you'’ve been neglecting?

Mom, I'’m donating them.

Okay, let the record show my
skepticism, but I'’m listening.

I'’m giving them
to Bergeron Junior High,

where I volunteer.

The after-school
homework initiative?

Yeah, they'’re shutting it down.

COVID budget cuts.

That'’s disappointing.

Kids need the tablets
it supplies.

You'’re giving them
all of these?

Yeah. A few of us from school
are collecting them.

We need 30 to get every kid
-in the program one.
-Hmm.

And this was your idea?

Why?

You think it'’s bad?

I think it'’s beautiful.

Hey.

Got you some coffee.

Usually, I draw my line

at six cups a night, but, hey,

it'’s a new day.

Why don'’t you
head out?

Take a shower, relax.

I'’ll sleep when we get Beth
back safe and sound.

Sebastian and I were up all
night looking into Joel Cadiff,

and nothing. He's got
no credit cards,

no online presence at all.

Cadiff'’s former Mossad.
So, between cover identities

and Israeli red tape,
it'’s pretty tough

to get anything besides
basic work history.

After Mossad,
Cadiff was a gun for hire.

Armed protection,

hostage extraction.
He had

a one-year stint
as a security attaché

for an Israeli foreign diplomat
in Yokosuka.

Just doesn'’t
add up.

Why would anyone
hire a jerk like Cadiff

with no ransom in mind?

She'’s 15 years old.

-I don'’t even want to go there.
-No, trafficking underage girls

is-is lucrative.
-It'’s a real possibility.
-I know.

That's why I pray
that you'’re wrong.

West Baton Rouge Sheriff'’s
department just found the SUV.

It'’s Cadiff.

Don'’t know how a kid
could walk away from this.

Based on the footage we picked
off a speed enforcement camera,

the SUV went over the side
about 11:00 a.m. yesterday.

Couple hours after
Beth'’s abduction.

Looks like
a standard accident.

High speed,
lost control.

No, Cadiff was
an experienced driver.

He wouldn'’t just lose control.

Unless something was
going on inside that SUV.

Beth. She really does
take after her father.

All right, so I got
good news and bad news.

Bad news is, obviously, is the
crash and the dead suspect.

But the good news
is that I think

the other passengers escaped.
Looks like

they broke the glass
window from inside,

maybe crawled out.

Search and Rescue'’s
on their way.

I'’ll have them
start a grid search.

Thank you.

Now we got another problem.

Keep working
the scene.

What are you doing here?

Followed you.

You shouldn'’t have.

She'’s my daughter.

And we got
30 cops handling it.

They handling this?

Footprints.

Three sets.

Including...

...Beth'’s.

Leading into
the woods.

Okay.

We'’ll get on it.

But you need to go back
to NCIS and wait for us.

I'’m not going anywhere.

My daughter'’s in trouble.

We know she'’s alive.

For now.
But there'’s no telling

what they'’re gonna do to her.

Frank. This is our job.

Okay?
You need to step away.

Or else we'’re gonna handcuff you
and take you back by force.

Okay.

Okay.

Let's have Sheriff Mott
and his team

start the search from down here.

They got a day's start on us, so
they're gonna have to act fast.

All right, we'’ll check
for stolen vehicles in the area.

We'll see if they'’re
still on foot.

And we need
to get Frank out of here

before he does something stupid.

Yeah, that'’s gonna be a problem.

Changing your gait
was a smart move.

-You a hunter?
-Uh, in a manner.

Marine Force Recon, five years.

-Ah.
-Hey, word to the wise.
If you really want to mask

your tracks, tie leaves
to the bottom of your boots.

I'm not going back with you.

It's not a choice, Frank.

All right, you need
to stand down.

These guys are smart.

Those sheriffs
are spinning their wheels.

-And you can do better?
-Already did.

Those footprints
that I showed you-- decoys.

I found another set
on the other side of the road.

These are the real ones.

From the way this one drags?

One of them's injured.

Okay, all right, we go back,
we get everyone on track.

I'm going after my daughter.

I taught Beth
everything she knows.

How to defend herself,

and how to leave a trail
if she got into trouble.

She's talking to me.

She's telling me
where they're going.

I'm the only one
who can stay on the trail.

Okay.

All right,
but we do this my way.

-Understood?
-Yeah. Come on.

CJ, I'm in a bit
of a rush right now.

You can't say you have a
surprise and then not tell me.

Please?

Okay, hold on.

What? Where'd you get those?

Surprisingly,
I'm not the only one

who has old electronics
gathering dust.

There's an entire box
that belongs to Sebastian.

Mom, I don't know
how to thank you.

Don't worry. I have an idea.

We'll discuss over dinner.
Okay, bye.

Sebastian, you were able
to identify the suspects?

Yeah, I was. I also
want it known

for the record that
it was very difficult

to pull prints out of a wet,
leather car interior.

Ah, duly noted. Now, who ...mean, I had to
use this, uh...

this carbon-based black
powder just to get partials,

and it's, uh, an incredibly
elaborate compound,

you know,
and it's very difficult

to use because you have...

Do you know how

amazing it is that you have
the power to say shut up,

but with only your eyes?

-It's a gift.
-Yeah.

Let me introduce you to our
Alex and Matt Dixon.

-Brothers?
-Yeah, and partners in crime,
apparently.

Extortion, aggravated
kidnapping, attempted murder.

Yeah. After their most recent
prison stints, they transitioned

into private security,
but they're-they're glorified

-muscle for hire.
-God, that poor girl
is stuck with them.

We need to find her fast.

How many of these beads
does Beth have?

A year ago, I made Beth
a paracord bracelet,

pulls apart into little pieces.

36 beads.

Oh, clever.

Hoped she'd never have
to use it.

Beth seems very capable.

Yeah? Well,
I spent years training her.

Just the two of us
out in the woods.

Only one in the family
who was willing to learn,

didn't think I was mad.

Two peas in a pod, huh?

Ah, we basically speak
our own language.

Really. Yeah.

We, uh, created
these safety phrases.

Got one for
everything.

"Jelly Beans" means
we're not alone.

Uh, "Unicorn"
means scream.

Uh, "London Bridge"
means...

Falling down? Ah.

Doesn't really leave
much time for dating

and sleepovers, though, does it?

-All that stuff is a waste.
-I mean, come on.

A kid's got to be a kid,
though, right?

You sound
like my ex.

World's not made for kids.

It's chaos. Have
to be prepared.

You think I'm crazy, huh?

Just a little intense is all.

You want to know what else I am?

Right.

Katrina was
a wakeup call for me.

I swore I'd never get caught
off-guard again.

Paid off.

Yeah, living in the wild,
estranged from your family.

Being ready for pandemics
or civil unrest

or a kidnapped daughter.

If that was the cost
of keeping Beth and Simone safe,

then, yes.

And I rest easy knowing
I made the right call.

It's kind of lonely,
though, huh?

Can be.

Frank.

More decoy footprints, huh?

-Yeah.
-Good eye.

Hey, we should
call this in.

Oh. Don't bother.

There's no way you're
getting a signal out here.

Still can't reach Carter.

Any way you can track him
in the woods?

Yeah, he's off the
grid right now,

but Sebastian's keeping track
of his GPS.

In other news,

I figured out Joel Cadiff's
connection to Beth.

-And?
-Guess who he worked with

during his time
in Yokosuka, Japan?

Claire Hogan knew Cadiff?

They were friends.

She's been holding out on us.

Yup.

Alex and Matt Dixon.

Two of the men
responsible for abducting Beth.

We believe that
they still have her.

Have you ever
seen these men before?

No. Never.

How about... Joel Cadiff?

We believe
he coordinated the kidnapping.

I'm gonna caution you
to think really hard

before responding,
Commander Hogan.

We know that you flew
escort missions with Cadiff

during his time as a diplomatic
attaché in Yokosuka.

Looks like you were real chummy.

Joel was a coworker, that's all.

Simone was in Japan
with me that summer.

She can confirm that.

Maybe he thought
you were more than friends?

-Had some bad blood?
Joel and I

barely even saw each other
the last month we were there.

And that was four years ago.
Why do this now?

How about you, Simone?

Did you know Cadiff?

Well, she and Joel
only met a few times.

I'm not sure
that's entirely true.

I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.

We couldn't let him win again.

Let who win?

Frank.

Simone.
What did you do?

You were gonna ley Beth
stay with him for six months.

Do you have any idea
what that amount of time

would've done to her? We had
to get her away from him.

So, you and Joel?
Why him?

We started seeing each other

in Japan.

Been together
ever since.

We knew you
wouldn't approve.

You and Joel did this together?

It was his idea.

He's the only one who
understood what Frank did to me.

What do you mean, did to you?

He ruined my life.
He wrecked our family!

He became this
crazy stranger,

skinning animals
and building booby traps.

That's no way
to grow up.

I know it was bad,
but he's better.

This is why I couldn't
come to you.

You make excuses, and
you gave up protecting

Beth and me the day
you agreed to share custody.

So you kidnapped
your own sister?

Okay, let's save
the family therapy for later.

We still have
to find Beth,

-remember?
-I-I just need
to talk to Joel.

He was supposed to call.

Mm.
-Okay, Simone.

Let's you and I have a chat.

This wasn't supposed to happen.

All due respect, Simone...

you had your sister kidnapped.

What did you think
was gonna happen?

That I'd get her to safety.

That Beth, Joel and I

would find someplace
nice to live.

Did you ever think
to ask Beth what she wanted?

Well, but Frank brainwashed her.

She was becoming

more like him all the time.

Somebody had to save her.

Well, all I really care about
right now is getting her back.

How were you

supposed to contact Cadiff?

He said... he said,
the less I knew, the better.

He was supposed to contact me,
set a meeting place.

Yeah, well, he's dead.

What about his men?

-You know how to reach them?
-No!

No, I'm sorry.
God.

-What are they gonna do to her?
-Best guess?

They're gonna
find a secure place,

reach out to you.

I never should have
agreed to this.

Joel said it would be easy.

He'd done it so many times.

God, what if I got her killed?

Let's focuson what we can do here.

Why don't you
give me your phone?

They're gonna call you,
and When they do...

...I need you levelheaded.

For Beth.

-So I've been trying
to trace the number

that Cadiff's been using
to communicate with Simone,

but it's been offline
since yesterday.

Probably a burner
he dumped, yeah?

Running out of options here.

Is that them?

Unknown caller.

Okay.

It's all right.

Go ahead.

Hello?

Do you have any idea what
the hell we've been through?

Is my sister okay?

Your psycho sister
got Cadiff killed.

Nearly killed us, too.

But is she okay?

Shut up and listen.

She's fine.

But if you want her
to stay that way,

we're gonna need money.

Joel should have paid you.

Joel's not running things

anymore, and our price went up

the second our car
went off a bridge.

I can probably
wire her...

-A hundred grand.
-Well, I...

I don't have that.

In cash.

I need to speak to Beth first.

Fine.

Say hi to your sister.

Simone.

Please. They've got me
in some...

Beth! Beth!

You have two hours
to get the money.

Bring it to the old
freight facility parking lot.

Come alone.

No.

Had a ping, but it's only
in the general area.

It looks like they're
only a few miles away

-from the crash site, though.
-Okay, well,

Carter's still out there.

Try and reach him again.

All right, I'm on it.

So what now?

We get them their money.

Hey.

All right, we're gonna
take it real easy.

All you need to do is
just follow instructions.

And what are you
gonna do?

Get your sister back.

Hello?

I told you to come alone.

I'm the girl's father.

I could give a crap.

You want your money or not?

Keep walking.
Hands out the entire time.

Got eyes on him, Pride.

He's directly ahead
of you.

Stop right there.

Drop the money.

We want to see Beth.

Money first, Dad.

Or you bury two daughters today.

That's far enough.

Where's Beth?

Safe.

As long as I am.

I leave...

you get another call.

No, no,

-that's not the deal.
-It is now.

What are you gonna
do about it?

I'm gonna tell you
to lower your weapon

or the two federal agents
behind you

are gonna take you out.

-On your knees!
-Drop it or we shoot!

Anything happens to me,
my brother puts a bullet

in the girl's head!

Do it now!

It's my brother.

You want the girl alive,
you let me walk.

Just lower the weapon,
and we will talk about it.

Stay here.

Nowhere to go!

What are we gonna do?

Beth's still
with that other guy.

He's gonna kill her.

We're gonna track him down.
We're gonna track him down.

And we'll find Beth.

carter may already have.

Come on. Come on.

Come on!
This is screwed.

This is so screwed!

No. Hold on.

I'm going to get my daughter.

You're gonna
get yourself killed,

or you're gonna
get Beth killed, okay?

Let me take the lead.
I have a plan.

Okay. All right.

My brother's
not answering!

I'm gonna hurt you
before I kill you.

You're not gonna hurt anyone.

I'm a federal agent.
Hey, let Beth go.

Put the gun down.

Where's my brother?

-You need to listen to me.
-No!

You listen to me!

-I want to talk to my brother.
-You let the girl go,

surrender, and then
you can talk to Alex.

I'll take my chances.

Okay. All right.

You win, Matt.
I'm gonna lower the weapon.

All right?

Now, I'm gonna get Alex
on the phone for you, okay?

-Do it now!
-All right.
There's just

London Bridge.

Hey.

You hurt?

How did you know
about London Bridge?

Dad!

After spreading the word
to other private schools,

we were able to bring in
over 200 laptops and tablets.

We think these donations
might save

Bergeron Junior High's
homework initiative.

And that's my presentation.

Thank you, CJ.

Now, just to be clear,
I didn't bring him in

just to show off--
that's a fringe benefit.

Wouldn't blame
you if you did.

He's a community organizer
in the making.

The reason I asked CJ
to share the work

he and his friends have done
is simple.

He found a problem
within his power to fix,

-and fixed it.
-Without the backing

of city government, at that.

We've spent so much time

circling huge, systemic issues

that we've lost sight

of the small steps
it takes to achieve

big changes.
So...

with that thinking,

why not address
housing equality?

We could start
a small housing trust

for our city.

Perhaps a volunteer program

tasked with revitalizing
neighborhoods.

-Why not both?
-Oh, that would be a lovely way

to assist the underprivileged
parts of the city.

We could start
attracting volunteers

using the chamber's
resources.

Oh, Beth! Thank God!

Oh, Simone. Baby!
-Mom!

I know you all think I'm crazy.

I wish it was
that simple, but...

you're smart, Simone.

You always have been.

I just wanted
what was best for Beth.

I know.

And the fact
that you felt this was it

breaks my heart.

So, what's gonna
happen with Simone?

She'll be charged.

Oh.

But since it was
Cadiff's idea and...

she helped us
get Beth back,

we'll ask
for leniency.

She needs professional help

a whole lot more
than she needs a jail cell.

And I thought my family dynamics
were complicated.

This is such a nice idea.

We should do it more often.

Appreciate y'all lending a hand

-restocking the food pantry.
-Well...

the drinks are on you.

I really did miss this.

I heard about
your presentation

at the commission.

Sounds like you got the
train back on track.

I was only the messenger.

CJ did all the work.

Well, let's not forget who
raised that bright young man.

Right.

When was the last time we were
all here together like this?

Uh, a year, at least,
maybe more.

Wait a minute.
Carter,

have you ever
been to the Trutone?

Come on,
course I have.

Uh, strange.
I don't remember you

-gracing uswith your presence.
-Hmm.

Now I'm reminded why I
-don't drink with you all.
-Oh!

Oh, stop! We're just playing.

So sorry, Mr. Sensitive.

Bibbity-boo.

-Another?
-Eh.

All that time
in the woods,

it really changes a man, right?

You and Frank gonna be pen pals?

Actually, thinking about

-starting a podcast together.
-Ah.

I'm glad that
you made it out alive.

Why, did you miss me, Khoury?

Still breaking you in.

I don't want to start all over
with a whole new agent.

See, now, this is the problem
with getting personal.

Entanglements.

Expectations.

Mm.

You flirting with me?
