What were your agents even doing in the lab

How is she doing?

- I went to the hospital yesterday.

She's awake. There is a lot

at a lot of physical therapy, but Maggie's a fighter.

She's gonna get through it. - Good.

- Hey. - Hi.

- All right, folks.

Uh, heads up, this is a rough one.

Last night, morning show host Maria Blake

was brutally stabbed to death in her house in Boerum Hills.

Her wife Olivia was also attacked,

but she survived.

She's in critical condition at Hope General.

Olivia's ten-year-old daughter called 911.

- Was she there during the attack?

- Uh, yeah, she was hiding in a closet.

- Yeah, NYPD thinks the MO of the attacker

matches two others across town.

They are asking for our help

in a potential serial killer case.

- What do we know about the earlier murders?

- First victim was 38-year-old

real estate broker Chetna Burman.

Killed at her brownstone on West 73rd Street

sometime around 2:00 a.m. on March 20th.

Two weeks later, bank president Jamie Merritt,

42, was found dead with similar wounds

at her place on West 87th.

- Those are Upper West Side addresses.

So the Blakes in Brooklyn would be a departure.

- Yes, but the other case markers all line up.

- Like townhouses broken into late at night,

powerful women in their 30s and 40s

being attacked with a knife, so.

Yeah, let's get to work, huh, people?

You four want to head to the scene,

see what you can dig up?

- Oh, welcome aboard. - Thanks.

- So, you're, uh--

- Oh, filling in for Maggie temporarily, yeah.

I got the call this morning,

so I didn't have a chance to tell you,

but, you know, don't make it weird.

- This is a nice house.

The family doesn't have a security system?

- House has one, but it doesn't look

like they had it set up yet.

Neighbors said they just moved in,

had workers in and out.

- Any sign of forced entry? - No.

Back door was unlocked when we arrived.

- Got markings around the keyhole.

Looks like the guy must have picked the lock.

- We're gonna need you

to touch base with the neighbors again

to pull their security footage.

- You got it.

- I know you're just doing your jobs,

but she's been through a lot.

Between the divorce,

her mom getting remarried, and now this,

it's just--I mean, it's--

- We'll keep it brief, okay?

We just want to ask her a few questions.

- Of course.

Now, Brooke, honey, I, um--

I need you to tell them what you told me

about the guy that you saw, kay?

- I'm not sure, but he kind of looked

like the man who worked on our house.

He had the same kind of boots on.

- I think she said that, uh, the guy was arguing

with her stepmother, Maria.

- Okay, uh, when was this, Brooke?

- A few weeks ago.

- And do you remember what they were arguing about?

- What did the man look like?

- He was tall.

- Do you know how old he was?

Or what color skin he had?

- He was about your age.

And he was Black.

- Do you think you would recognize the man

if we showed you a photo?

- Yeah, I think so.

- Yeah? Okay.

- Isobel Castille?

SSA Deon Marshall

from the Behavioral Analysis unit.

I've been assigned to your serial killer case.

- Well, thank you, but I did not request

a profiler on this case.

ADIC Hawkins is an old friend. He asked me to advise.

I'm sure you have a handle on it.

Just here if you need an extra set of eyes.

- Okay. Welcome aboard.

Okay, listen up, everyone.

This is Deon Marshall with BAU,

he will be assisting us in this case.

- Great. So, uh, the killer

did not leave and forensics on the scene,

but we just got the ME's report.

The knife wounds found on Maria's body

are similar to those found on Merritt and Burman,

so it seems like we are looking for the same killer.

- Have you been able to identify

any connection between the victims?

- We're still digging into their backgrounds,

but so far, no. No clear nexus.

- Hey, I just talked to Scola.

ERT thinks Maria's wedding ring was stolen.

There are lacerations on her finger

like it was forcibly removed,

and they can't find it in the house.

- Did any of the other victims have jewelry taken?

- Yeah, uh, Burman wore a diabetes bracelet

that NYPD never recovered.

No, there's nothing about missing jewelry

in Merritt's file, though.

- It's not unusual for serial killers

to take jewelry as trophies.

- Yeah, Kelly, you want to make sure ERT is doing

a full inventory at Merritt's? - Got it.

- Listen, did we ever alibi out the ex-husband?

- Uh, yeah. He was in Philly overnight

on a job interview. - And we confirmed it?

- A theater there confirmed he had an interview

to be their technical director,

and I talked to the host at the Airbnb he stayed at.

She said Owen checked in yesterday,

left early this morning.

- Not to mention that he is a far cry

from the daughter's description.

Okay, speaking of which, we get an ID

on that construction worker?

- Yes, got a list from the Blakes' contractor.

Showed the photos to Brooke and she ID'd

a man named Jeremiah Carver.

- All right, eyes up.

What do we know about him? - Not much.

Carpenter, 32 years old, lives in Queens.

- All right. Let's bring him in.

Have Tiffany and Scola get over there.

- Look, I don't want to overstep here,

but your killer's been careful every step of the way.

It doesn't make sense for him to attack

someone he's been working for.

- We just had a witness ID him.

- Yes, but cross-racial identifications

are less reliable, and the witness is

a ten-year-old who saw him

from across the room in the dark.

- I understand, but right now, it's all we have.

- I'm not seeing him anywhere. We sure he's still here?

- Carver charged his card here less than ten minutes ago,

and his crew says he hasn't been

back to the house yet.

- Heads up.

Ten years old, and she had to watch

Accused me of dealing weed out of the house.

- Based on the stash we found, I'm assuming

that's not far from the truth?

That lady blew things out of proportion.

Caught him breaking in the back.

- Same method of entry, same hoodie, same height.

- Name's Joan Zoffer.

She's a surgeon at Presbyterian.

Single, no kids, lives alone.

Her boss called NYPD to do a wellness check

when she didn't show up for her shift this morning.

- Two attacks in two nights.

Our killer's on a spree.

- Mm. Ripped the earring right out.

Has anyone recovered that? - No, not yet.

- Huh. He must have took it with him

as another trophy.

- We've got a shoeprint.

- Hmm. What is that?

- I'm not sure. Looks like glass.

I'll get ERT to send it to the lab,

see if they can ID it.

- Well, a security camera caught the killer

breaking into the victim's house,

but he managed to avoid the street cams in the area,

so that means he did his homework.

He scoped the area out.

So we're checking for video earlier in the day,

earlier in the week... - Well, what about the victim?

Anything that connects Zoffer to the others?

- I mean, there's-- there's some overlap

with Merritt and Burman,

but most of that can be chalked up

to living in the same neighborhood.

- The nexus may be the women's success.

Killer's resentful, attacks powerful women

as a way of regaining power.

- Right, all right, so let's chase that.

That would mean the killer is

underemployed or unemployed, someone on the fringe.

- Yeah, sounds right.

Someone bitter, disenfranchised.

Statistically, it's probably a blue-collar worker.

- Right, well, that-- that tracks

with the print we found at the scene,

size 11 Starks-- common work boot.

- Jubal. - Yeah?

- We got something. - Lab ID'd the fragments

in the boot-- it's stained glass.

- Any stained glass found at Zoffer's house?

- No, we think that the killer must have tracked it in.

- Probably from a church. - Right, good.

So let's get boots on the ground.

I want agents canvassing any and all churches

on the Upper West Side.

And schedule a press conference.

I want to get this guy's face out there.

Somebody knows who he is

or has seen him loiter in the neighborhood.

- Yes, ma'am.

- Isobel, wait.

I don't think this is a good idea.

- Excuse me? - Holding a press conference,

blasting his face out to the community--

I'm not sure the person we see on camera

is the killer. Something isn't adding up.

- We have video of him breaking in.

- I know, I saw it.

But from a statistical standpoint,

there are very few Black serial killers,

and the ones we do know about typically target

disenfranchised, low-income victims.

- We have video of him at various crime scenes.

We can see his face.

He's Black. - I know.

Doesn't make sense to me either.

But I think it's prudent to hold off

on releasing a photo.

This guy kills in order to feel powerful.

You give him more media attention,

you're giving him more power.

You could trigger him to strike again.

- He has killed two nights in a row.

He's gonna strike again regardless.

We have to find him before that happens.

- I agree, but the ADIC sent me

to offer my expertise, and I'm telling you,

making a public announcement based on shaky evidence--

- We have a photo.

How in God's name is that shaky?

- Okay, wrong adjective.

It's...incongruous.

- Okay. What is the alternative then?

We wait for him to kill another woman,

hope he makes a mistake that we can capitalize on?

If there is any chance someone can identify

the man in this photo before he strikes again,

I am taking it.

We have recently obtained a photograph of the suspect.

If anyone has seen this man or has any information

as to his whereabouts,

please contact the FBI immediately.

In the meantime, there are ways you can protect yourselves.

He is not a particularly sophisticated

or adept criminal.

He is a coward who is overpowering women

but so far-- - Okay, keep digging.

- You know, the fact that he was wearing

a Black mask might give us some insight to who he is.

- We think this is racially motivated?

- Unlikely. He seems to be choosing targets

based on gender and career.

- Or maybe the mask is just meant to be

a good disguise.

Gets caught on camera, hard to identify the suspect.

- And the cherry on top is that he can use

the old "the Black guy did it" to get away with murder.

We need to find this guy on camera

"Chetna Burman, PX," "Jamie Merritt, PPX."

That's restaurant code for VIP.

PX means important, PPX means very important.

Dated a waitress in college.

- So if that's how he's labelling them,

he has to work at a restaurant,

or have worked at a restaurant,

where all three of them have been.

Uh, Kelly, you're charting overlap

between the victims, right? - Uh, yes, but there wasn't

anything that applied to all six of them.

Well, maybe it's not that straightforward.

We know Isobel was off-pattern.

He couldn't wait for his daughter

- With her maternal grandparents.

We already called. They started her

back at school this morning.

- Yeah, uh, looks like Owen worked

- All right. JOC confirmed with Olivia,

there's a working landline in the kitchen

we can use for contact. - Okay, how are we looking?

- We don't have eyes inside.

He's got all the windows covered.

- What are our options?

- Looks like the siding on the house is vinyl.

We could possibly drill in and get a pinhole camera

on the inside.

- Okay, but wouldn't he hear that?

- Not if we can cover it.

We'd need some sort of distraction.

- So what, flash bangs?

- Might not want to risk startling him like that.

- That's too short anyway.

We need something we can sustain

for at least ten seconds.

- What about a siren?

- Okay, we're in.

I'll take point and make contact.

- Daddy, you're scaring me. - No, no, no, no.

Sweetheart, everything's fine.

Daddy's got everything under control, okay?

Um, uh.

What do you want?

- David Owen, this is Special Agent Zidan.

We met the other day. I'm here to help you.

Oh, come on.

How are you gonna help me?

- I would like to start by getting you

and your daughter out of that house safely,

and you can help me with that.

- Okay.

- I need you to come outside, unarmed,

with your hands up high,

and we'll take it from there, okay?

- Come on, how-- how do I know

that you're not gonna shoot me

or you're not gonna shoot me and my daughter?

- You have my word, David.

If you come out with your hands up,

I promise you that-- - No, no, no.

No, 'cause I know you're lying. You're lying to me right now.

I know it. I know that you are.

You're lying to me right now. Okay.

- David, no. Listen to me.

- Oh, come on, how are you gonna let me

walk out of here with everything

that I've done, huh?

Yeah, everything I've done, you're gonna let me just go--

No. - David, that is

the last thing that any of us want to do to--

- Come here. Come with me, okay?

- What's he doing?

- He's taking her to another room.

- Isobel, what's our move?

- He knows it's over. He's spiraling.

I think we need to hit that house

and get Brooke out of there.

- But we were making progress.

Might be worth another try. Let him cool off.

- He has that little girl barricaded in a house.

- If he wanted to kill her, he would have done it

the night that he attacked her mother.

Based on the profile--

- We cannot base every damn decision we make

on his profile.

- What else do you want to base it on?

A hunch?

This is exactly what the ADIC is concerned about.

You're being reactive. Data doesn't lie.

It's the best indication of future actions.

- My hunches are based on years of experience,

not algorithms or statistics.

- Isobel...

- Owen just used Brooke as a human shield.

That tells me when push comes to shove,

he doesn't give a damn about his daughter.

This is about the way he sees himself,

his own narcissistic fantasy.

And right now, that fantasy is falling apart.

He will kill his daughter and then kill himself

before he faces reality.

- If you're wrong about that... - Then I will take the heat.

But I'm not gonna let a little girl die

because I played it safe.

OA, we are going in now.

- Copy that.

Put the gun down, David. It's over.

Put it down.

- No.

- Put it down. - No.

You stay back, okay?

- You stay away, okay? You stay away

or I swear to God, I will shoot her.

I will. - Dad, you're hurting me!

- Owen, you gotta let her go.

Your daughter has nothing to do with this, man.

She has nothing to do with this.

- You're hurting me! - No, no, no!

Just stay away.

- Let her go. - No.

- Let your daughter go. - Dad, you're hurting me!

- Don't even think about it.

- Come on, no. - It's gonna be okay, Brooke.

- Hey, hey, do not talk to her, okay?

Do not speak to her. I just need--

- Okay, okay. - I just need a minute.

I just need a minute, okay? - Listen, hey--

No.

- Let your daughter go. - No, just--just--just--

- Okay, okay.

All right. Look at me.

- What? - Hey, look at me, all right?

You don't want it to end like this.

- Brooke has her whole life ahead of her.

- Oh, shut up. Will you just shut up?

Just shut up! I wish you two would just--

- Don't hurt him!

- Oh, right. Um, let me walk you out.

Listen, I know that we have had our differences,

but I really do appreciate your help.

- You got the right result.

But...

- But what?

- You got lucky.

Owen actually harming his daughter was remote.

Statistical anomaly.

- Hmm.

Well, I have been getting lucky for 20 years.

Led me to being one of only ten female SACs

in the FBI.

I'm sure you can find

the statistical anomaly in that.
