KIDNAPPER [voice distorted]:
Were you a good mother?

I... I did the best
I could. Please...

How does a good mother let
her boy get taken by a maniac?

Let us see James.

Not until you answer
my questions.

The scar on the back of James'
head, how did he get that?

I know this is excruciating,
but the longer we keep

the kidnapper talking,
the better chance we have

to find some kind of leverage.

[button clicks]

Uh, we were
playing baseball.

He took a pitch,
turned his head.

It was an accident.

KIDNAPPER: Then why were
Child Services called?

He was mad at me,
so he called them.

Mad? Anything to do with you
banging the former housekeeper?

You son of a bitch.

That's enough.
Give me back my boy.

Hello.

My name's
Eric Beaumont.

I said no police.
I'm not.

I'm a negotiator.

In exchange for James's life,

I'm willing to get you
whatever you want.

First, I need to know
that James is alive.

Alive? Okay.

I'll show you alive.

[shuddering]

MAXINE:
They're rich.

Why not just ask for the money
and be done with it?

Well, the guy's
an emotional sadist.

Takes pleasure
in their suffering.

Seems to be
going around.

Everywhere I look these days,
there's another maniac.

Hey. What's going on?
Talk to me.

It's my mom's birthday.

Low tolerance
for sociopaths

today, I guess.

I should've remembered.
I'm sorry.

It's okay.

You know what I think?
What?

I think your mom
would've liked me.

Me, too.
Come here.

ZARA:
You were right, Eric.

This behavior is way too
specific to be random.

The kidnapper's M.O.

fits a one Vincent Keough.

Wait. The Blue Blood Killer?

You know him?
I studied him in school.

Matter of fact, he's
from here, Connecticut.

This side, or the other side?

The other. He grew up poor,
then became rich

and began targeting
one percenters.

Killing-- abducting...

their firstborn sons.

Like our James.
Hey, Zara,

isn't Keough...

Serving five consecutive
life sentences

at Osborn Correctional? Yeah.

FATHER:
So this is what?

Some kind of copycat?

What, some random person?

Wh-What the hell
do they want with us?

Ben, whoever's behind this
isn't looking

to just punish
you and your wife.

He's hoping to wear you down.

There's a big demand coming,
I can feel it.

You need to be
clear-headed, okay?

Let's talk to Keough.

Might give us
some kind of insight

into who we're dealing with.

OLIVER: Yeah, we're
wasting time.

Keough's a master
manipulator.

This guy loves the attention.

Zara, who put
Keough in jail?

Mmm...

A Detective
Colton Meyers.

Maybe we should
talk to him first,

get a better understanding
of who Vincent Keough was

when he was active.

I'll have him meet you
outside the prison.

♪

[lock buzzes, latch clicks]

Vincent Keough
was a financial advisor.

Made some real money
for his clients

before he started
killing their sons.

How'd you catch him?

Got sloppy, abducted a kid
in broad daylight.

His own girlfriend called it in.

Keough was patient,
methodical.

Why'd he suddenly
switch up his M.O.?

He thought we were
getting close. Panicked.

Where was James Smith abducted?

Opening of a new wing
of a hospital

donated by his parents.

Yeah, your copycat
has done his homework.

That's Keough's kind of party.

Any last words?

Keough will see any attempt
to manipulate a mile away,

so try active listening.
Let his ego come to you.

Thank you for your help,
Detective.

One last thing...

as I was taking Keough
into custody,

he jammed a pen into
that kid's femoral artery.

He was caught, he still did it.

Kid died in my arms.
Whatever you need.

[lock buzzes, latch clicks]

Hmm. Eric,

image and sound are up.

Mr. Keough?

My name's Eric Beaumont.
I'm a negotiator.

You mind if we talk?

A negotiator.

How fun.

Usually, they send psychologists
to pick my brain.

Green thumb?

Mm, more like a penchant
for the misunderstood.

Solanum nigrum.

Black nightshade.

But for the likeness of
its cousin, deadly nightshade,

which in large doses can cause
temporary paralysis

and even death,

it's completely
harmless.

I think you may have
a copycat as well.

A boy has been taken
and the kidnapper

borrowed your M.O.
Any thoughts?

Tell him to get his own schtick.

Anyone contact
you recently?

Ask you about your crimes?
Well, as you can guess,

a man of my notoriety
gets a lot of mail.

Oh, I understand that,
of course.

How exactly can I help you,
Mr. Beaumont?

I want you to help us stop him.

Whoever this copycat is,
he's not you.

He doesn't have your
education, your, uh,

refinement.

My guess is you'll make
short work of this imposter.

I would love nothing more than
to make amends for my past sins.

Training never leaves you,
does it?

Beg pardon?
Checking your corners. FBI?

And now he's a negotiator.

But why?
Why did he leave?

I'm only here about the copycat.

OLIVER [over comms]:
Eric, the kidnapper

called back. He's on the line
with the Smiths.

How would you like
to make amends right now?

Very well.
I only have one question.

Sure, what's that?
Who'd you lose?

Thank you.

Detective Meyers, this is
Mr. and Mrs. Smith.

Hi.
Hi.

How do you do?
Hey.

The warden let
the call go through?

I think our clients may have
something to do with it.

The governor and I
go way back.

Yeah, she spoke to the
warden on our behalf.

I have Vincent Keough
on the line.

And a good day
to you, my friend.

Are you still there?

KIDNAPPER [distorted voice]:
How do I know it's really you?

Oh, well, from what I hear,

you're the expert
on all things Vincent Keough.

KIDNAPPER:
Tell me about your first victim.

Ah, yes, the Radcliffe boy.

KIDNAPPER:
No, after your father.

The deer, the French River.

There was mention of it
in the court documents,

but you never
finished the story.

There's not much to tell,
I'm afraid.

Isn't there something else?

OLIVER [over comms]:
He's agitated, Eric.

He doesn't want us to hear this.

I thought you wanted
to make amends.

When I was ten,
I came upon a fawn

and its mother
trapped in the ice.

Freezing to death.

Drowning.
I saved them.

But while they were
still too cold to run away,

I took out my hunting knife

and slit the fawn's throat.

Pushed it back in the ice.
[chuckles]

Watched it sink,

watched his mother drown
trying to save her child.

Look, whoever you are,

I beg that you
stop this madness now.

KIDNAPPER:
They're making you say that.

I assure you
they're not.

You need to free that boy.

KIDNAPPER:
But your great opus...

Opus?

What opus?

Maybe Keough
isn't finished killing.

Maybe there
was a sequence,

could be why he got sloppy
with his last victim.

KEOUGH: I haven't a clue
what you're on about,

but I beg that you
listen to reason now.

You must free that boy.

KIDNAPPER: Okay, if that's
what you really want.

It is.

KIDNAPPER:
I would do anything for you.

James will call
as soon as he's free.

KEOUGH:
There.

I guess happy endings do exist.

The deer.

Your first kill?

[laughs]

Oh, I did what you asked.

My regrettable encounter
with Mother Nature

has nothing to do
with your copycat.

I just have one question.

What's that?

Who'd you lose?

[lock buzzes]

[latch clicks]

Well, that was too easy.
Agreed.

It felt a lot like
a performance.

I think Keough knows
the copycat.

Serial killers need
to be in control.

The copycat is likely
a subordinate.

If he-he went off script

asking to hear that
story about the deer,

it would explain why
Keough got so upset.

That event is rooted in some
significant trauma for Keough.

That's why the kidnapper
put James in ice.

It's all connected.

And they mentioned
Keough's father.

What do we know?

He was an alcoholic.
Abandoned the family.

What's this?
It's a holdback
from the press.

It's a letter
from Keough.

When he killed
those boys,

he wrote that he "freed" them
from the cycle of greed.

He told the copycat
to "free" James.

Eric, it's James--
he's on the phone.

Okay.

James, just hold on.
We're gonna find you,
sweetie.

What's going on?
It's James.

James?

Where are you?

[crying]: I'm in a coffin.
He buried me.

He buried me alive.

I've got the flashlight app on.
MOTHER: That's good,
that's good, sweetie.

You keep that on.
We're gonna find you real soon.

I need to speak with your son.

[sniffles]
I love you, sweetie.

We're gonna find you,
I promise.

[James breathing unsteadily]

James...

there is only so
much air in there.

What?

[panting]:
Oh, my God.

I want you to close your eyes.
Can you do that for me?

Yes.
ERIC: Okay.

Now slow down your breathing.

All right, that's it,
James, that's good.

Now, I want you to switch off
the flashlight app,

and when you're ready...

hang up the phone.

[whimpering]

We need to make sure

that the phone
still has battery.

Y-You promise you'll find me?

I am gonna do

everything I can to find you.

I love you guys.

MEYERS:
Kid get an ID?

No, kidnapper was
masked. Gloved, even.

James couldn't
give us anything.
What about you?

No. Something's bouncing
the cell signal around.

It's impossible to trace.

The coffin
could be anywhere.

Keough knows this kidnapper.

Who's he had contact with?

No one.

Well, there's Lydia March.

Who's that?
Local botanist.

Volunteers with the inmates.

A while back, she and Keough
started writing letters.

Any chance there were
secret messages? A code, maybe?

No, they were vetted
by the guards.

Mostly talk
about flowers, plants.

Keough's, uh,
obsession with big banks.

Might be worth sending it back
to Cri/Res for analysis.

Has he had contact
with anyone else?
I've just checked

the visitor log--
there's nothing.

Except several
requests

for a Dale, uh...
McNamara.

Yes, uh, to visit, but the
warden rejected them all.

Who's Dale McNamara?

The son of Keough's
ex-girlfriend.

The woman who turned him in.

Why would he want
to see her son?

Keough's his father.
Mm-hmm.

ERIC: Does Dale know
that his father's

a killer?

His mother married
a rich dentist.

He raised Dale
as his own,

but we live in a small town,
Mr. Beaumont.

What kind of kid is Dale?

Eric, you're not
seriously considering...

You just said
yourself he's a kid.
I know.

But we have nothing
to bargain with.

Right now Dale is the only thing
that we knowKeough wants.

Putting Dale in a room
with Keough

could cause a great deal
of trauma for him.

It may also rattle Keough enough

for us to poke a hole
in that armor of his.

But shouldn't we...
Coffins are airtight, Maxine.

James could have less
than six hours left.

Look, I will talk to Dale first.

I won't send him in
unprepared, okay?

Would you mind visiting
the botanist?

Yeah.
I'll join you.

Thank you.

LYDIA:
Vincent and I are friendly,

but I would hardly
call us associates.

I just...
volunteer once a week.

I use plants

to teach them about
how fragile life is.

The inmates seem to enjoy it.

But you've only
written to Keough.

Vincent really took
to the plant program.

He's a changed man.
MAXINE: Men like
Vincent Keough

don't change.
You know this

from personal experience?

Vincent's not
like other men.

He's refined.

His words bring a great deal
of happiness to me.

He's a serial killer.
Having been
bankrupted

and hounded by the IRS

while Wall Street runs amok,

I am naturally sympathetic
to his political message.

Men like Keough use those ideas
to prey on the weak.

Because the weak refuse
to see the world

as the corrupt swamp
that it actually is.

One more thing.

Does he look
familiar to you?

Vincent is in prison!
How the hell

do you expect him
to do something like that?

I would like you
to leave.

Well, thank you
for your time.

KEOUGH:
Well?

Did he release the boy?

Don't you mean "free"?

Did he "free" the boy?

I have the letter, Vincent.

The one that was
never released to the public

but somehow the copycat
has intimate knowledge on.

"Free" means "kill," doesn't it?

You're grasping.
Come on, Keough.

You know the copycat.

He knew about the opus,
the deer.

End this now.

Is that all you have?

Am I to falter

under your pathetic plea
to save James Smith?

No. Not mine.

His.

[latch clicks, door creaks open]

Vincent Keough...

this is Dale McNamara.

[chuckles softly]

[sighs]
Yes, I know who he is.

Hello, Dale.

I had wanted
to be the one

to tell you the truth about me.

I guess your harlot mother
beat me to it.

No.

My mother
didn't tell me anything.

It's a small town--
the other kids couldn't wait

to torment me
about my dad

the serial killer.

Before we go any further...

I am not a killer.
Dale,

is there something
you'd like to ask your father?

I am a prophet.
Dale...

A revolutionary.
ERIC: Dale...

A divining rod pointing
to where the truth

is buried.
Dale, please.

Yes, Dale, please! Please!
Where is he?!

Where is James Smith?

[sighs]

Haven't you ruined
enough lives?

Haven't you caused enough pain?

Does your stepdad treat you
differently than your siblings,

his real children?

Okay, that's enough.
Oh, they think that

you're going to turn out
to be like me: a monster.

But deep down,
your stepdad knows

your mother is trash.

Tell me, Dale,

who has caused you

the most pain? Hmm?

Stop it.

I am nothing like you.

You should be so lucky.

Your mother was a parasite
when I found her.

Barfly.

A mattress back.

Breeding and feeding off
of anybody that would have her.

Hey, you think
you're so great, huh?!

Whoa.

You are nothing

but a fraud...
Hey.

...a phony.

[grunts]

Pull him off!

Get him off me!

[grunting]

Okay, okay, okay.

Aren't family reunions
delightful?

Tell me where James is.

[clicking tongue]

I am disappointed in you,
Mr. Beaumont.

Do most of the people
you usually come up against

just hand over information?
The warden refused

every request you made
to see your son.

I made that happen.

Mr. Beaumont, please.

I can get you visitations,

make contact with his mother
on your behalf...

Don't lowball me!

You want James Smith.

I can show you where he is,

but I will only do it in person.

I want out of this hellhole.

And there's
the big demand.

What?

What are you smiling about?

We're finally negotiating.

ERIC: Think the botanist
is the copycat?

I think she's deluded.

I think she traded
her identity

for the kind words
of a lunatic.

You okay?

Yeah. Sorry.

She hit a nerve, I guess.

Your mother's birthday
is hard for me, too.

Keough isn't Delaine,
you know?

We can't lose focus, okay?

Lydia is antisocial,
a loner.

She's completely
enamored with Keough.

She fits the profile.

You show her the
photo of James?

She acted like
she was horrified.

I didn't buy it.
Well, if it is her,

she had to be conspiring
with Keough somehow.

We've already sent her letters
to Cri/Res for analysis,

so we should have
something soon. Go ahead.

MAXINE:
How did it go with Dale?

ERIC:
Well, you may have been right

about putting him
in a room with Keough.

He's pretty upset.

ERIC: Detective Meyers is
finding him a ride home.

Why don't I do it?

You sure?

Yeah.

We can commiserate about
what a bad person you are.

OLIVER:
We can't just rush
to conclusions.

Please, you need
to take a deep breath...

No. Look, if
Vincent Keough needs

to be let out temporarily
in order to find James, then...

Whoa, whoa, what's going on?

You're not getting anywhere.

Why do you think
Keough chose James?

How should I know?
He chose James

because he knew,
pushed hard enough,

you would use your influence
to get him out of prison.

Everything we've done
was to find out

what the big demand would be,
and now we know it.

Don't... don't give away
our leverage.

You don't understand.
Early this year,

my daughter Evie
was abducted by a madman.

So what would you have us do?

What I did.

Trust my team.

OLIVER [over comms]:
Tactic?

Keough can be rattled.

Dale proved that.

And he's completing an opus,

so the location
where James is buried

should be significant.

Now, we pick the right scab,

and he may reveal
where that is.

Distributive negotiation.

Call it what you want.

I'm just gonna piss him off.

[humming]

[laughing]

[chuckles]
Ah.

Good tidings, I hope.

Did you really think
that pathetic routine

was gonna get you
out of here, hmm?

You really that stupid?

I strongly advise you
to watch your tone,

Mr. Beaumont.

Those things you said
about, um, Dale's mother--

the feeding, the breeding--

you're actually talking
about yourself.

You're part of
the same hypocrisy.

I'm nothing like her.

Trading in slums
for a Bentley and a house

in the Gold Coast?

Yeah, you're, uh...
you're worlds apart.

That was a way in.

Access to the people
I needed to punish.

Oh, so you followed
rich people around

like a sad little puppy
so you could get your revenge.

KEOUGH:
I was building up a tolerance.

Ingesting tiny bits
of their lives

until I could stomach
to be around them.

Except they wouldn't
have you, would they?

They couldn't have me.

Because you will always be
that poor kid from the slums

with a drunk for a dad.

And what about you,
Mr. White Knight?

You trying to save James
or yourself?

That's not it, is it?

Who did you lose?
Was it a wife or a mother

or a lover or a combination?

It's not that they didn't
want you...
See, the thing
you'll learn, Eric,

is that when you
align yourself...
...you were
just never comfortable.

with the rich...
Because deep down

you knew who you were.
...they will always
let you down.

You hate yourself.
You have no idea what I lost

at the hands
of the establishment.

You think you should be immune
to a run of bad luck?

What happened to my father

was much more
than a run of bad luck!

Your father was a drunk,
a deadbeat.

Shut your mouth!

Whatever happened to him
was his fault.

They ruined him!

Really? Really?
Yes!

What'd you see that day, huh?
Before the deer.

Before you became a killer.

KEOUGH: You think
that your privilege

can handle the truth of my life?
Hell yeah.

What happened?

You want to know?
Do you really want to know?
Oh, yeah.

Oh, sure. Why not?

KEOUGH:
Ah.

Right on time.

I don't like this
any more than you do,

but Keough's
coming with me.

We just want our son back.

James is the final movement
in Keough's opus.

That's why he wants out.

You're not saving your son.

You're serving him up
on an altar.

I'm sorry.
We'll send you a check.

Stay on Keough.

Eric, they fired us.

I know. I don't care.

We're missing something
and I'm gonna find it.

That, uh, must've been a lot
to process.

You know, my mother was involved
with a man like your father.

He got into her head.

Turned her into a weapon.

Convinced her
she was willing to kill.

What happened?

Someone... intervened.

It's not easy growing up knowing
that's where you came from.

I've always just felt
like an intruder

in my own life, you know?

Yeah. [chuckles]

Thank you.

We checked
the perimeter.

So far no signs of ambush
or a fresh grave.

Lydia March?

She packed a bag and
the safe is empty.

Think she left town.

So she was the copycat?

All right, people.

I want an APB on Lydia
March, aged 49.

He's running
out of air, Colton.

You have less
than an hour left.

One false move, you get a bullet
in the back of the head.

Now where is he?

Let's go.

Eric, they're at the greenhouse.

Stay with them.

Got it.

Okay. F-Fine.

Listen, I'm gonna send you
a picture.

Get the Natural
Language Processor

to apply Alberti's disk
to Keough's letters.

Okay. What's Alberti's disk?

It's like a-a purposely
rearranged alphabet in a circle.

You, uh, you put the regular
alphabet over it

and presto, you have a code.

On it.
Okay, great.

Aren't they exquisite?

Quit stalling, Keough.

Where the hell is he?

[coughing]

[officers coughing]

[cell phone ringing]

Yeah?

Eric, NLP found the code.
It applied the Alberti's disk

to the letters
between Lydia March and Keough

and found detailed instructions
on how and when

to kidnap James Smith.

It's all here.

So it was Lydia?

Well, NLP found

a discrepancy
in the gender category.

How so?
In the earlier letters,

the author used the feminine
pronouns "I, she, we,"

but then about three years ago,
it changed.

The pronouns were replaced with
the articles "the, a, mine, it"

and numbers.

So, the author of the most
recent letters was masculine?

Exactly. Not Lydia.

Really? This job
was your dream?

Well, the Spice Girls
already had a redhead.

[both chuckle]

No. Uh... after my mom died,

helping people like her.

DALE:
Yeah.

Yeah, that's pretty cool.

I don't feel

anything.

I mean, my stepdad's a dentist.

My mom...

seven centimeters dilated,

I requested satellite imaging

ERIC: Does the shape match

Nope. Not even close.

That doesn't make any sense.

Alberti's disk was on the

It's an anti-counterfeiting
measure.

A sequence of five rings.

Four of the victims
are buried already.

So we can use the fifth ring

to figure out
where James is buried.

It's an old sawmill.

Sending you geo coordinates
right now.

Ooh!

Zara, you okay?
ZARA: Yup, yup!

Just... having a baby.
Good luck.

Nurse!

[phone chiming]

Uh...

Oh, God. Okay.

[grunts]

Fill it in, please.

No.

[grunts, groans]

I said no.

Dale, when he
has to choose

between your life
and his freedom,

which way do you think
he's gonna go, huh?

[chuckles]

[grunts, groans]

[coughs]

He said fill it in.

[gunshot]

The next one's in his chest!

Okay, okay.
Dig! Dig!

[cell phone buzzing]

KEOUGH:
Let me tell you

about my father.

Spent years trying to find work,

but those rich bastards in town,

well, they couldn't look down
their nose far enough at him.

This place...
Eric was right.

It all started here.
Your father didn't just

run off, did he?

I saw it in his eyes.

He'd had enough.

They'd finally
broken him.

That's why I followed him
up here to this very spot.

His shotgun in his hand,
and I begged him to stop.

But he just looked
right through me.

He turned the
barrel around...

[imitates gunshot]

Blew his brains out.

Then you
walked out here,

and you saw the fawn
at the French River.

Everything I've done,

my grand opus,
it's a love letter

from son to father.
And now, from father to son.

James just ran out of air.

Brain damage
in seven minutes.

Dead in ten. No saving him now.

You know what, Keough?

You're full of crap.

What about Lydia?

I'm sorry, who?
She worshipped you,

and you threw her away.
You can't throw
trash away,

Mr. Yates.

It's trash!

Was your father trash?

I wonder, could
he not find work

or could he just
not hold down a job?

I beg your pardon?
There's no
message here.

You're not a prophet. Your
son is right. You're a fraud.

Good-bye, Mr. Yates.

[grunting]

Okay! Okay! Put it down!

Put it down!
MAXINE: Dale, you don't
have to do this.

Your father's not worth it.

What do you know?!

Huh?! Orphan girl,

you even know your father?!
You don't have to be

an intruder in your own life.
There are other ways.

I promise you.
I tried and they didn't work!

You move that knife one more
inch, I swear to God...

Yeah?
KEOUGH: You'll what?

Look at your hands.

You won't do anything.

Yes, I will.

Slit his throat.
Maxine...

Oli...
KEOUGH:
Oh, my goodness.

You're sweethearts.

Maxine, I love you.

Dale...

Do it! Now!

[shouts]

[grunting]

[gasping]

[indistinct shouting]

[shuddering]

Not another move, Keough!

Oliver? Are you okay?

James?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm fine,
I'm fine. James, James.

James!
James!

James!
James!

James!
James!

MAXINE: James!
Please wake up!
Get in here!

Honey.

Oh... oh.

The past has a strong
hold on us, doesn't it?

Informs our future more
than it has any right to.

I can't feel my fingertips.

You're in shock.

I thought if I...

shared your commitment
to preserving life,

if I worked the job
just like you did,

it would bring me peace.
Maxine...

All it brought me
was more death.

He was just a stupid kid.

Look, I'm not
gonna tell you

that you did the right thing,
because it didn't help

when everyone said that to me.

Just remember...

you saved a good man's life
tonight.

[quietly]:
You're okay.

[shuddering exhale]

♪

[gasps]

How is it that I just had a baby
and you look worse than I do?

Botox.
Oh, don't make me
hurt you, Yates.

Hey, buddy.
So you're the reason I had
to drive myself to work today.

[chuckles]
You did some job,
Zara. He's perfect.

Mm.
You think of a name yet?

Guys, can you give us a second?

Sure.
Yeah.

[coos]

Hey.

Good day?

Yeah. Great day.

Oh.

Come on.
Do you want to hold him?
Oh, Zara,

I-I don't know.
Please.

I would like him
to meet his namesake.

Really?
Yeah.

Max, meet Max.
[chuckles]

[sniffles]
Hi, Max.

Hello, Max.

Yes, hello.

Mike is really upset.

He wanted me to name him Wilf.

Oh.
Oh. I know.

Yeah, you wouldn't like that.
No.

You wouldn't like that. No.
Mm.

Yes. All the faces. Yes.

You're good at this.

♪

[speaking inaudibly]

MAXINE:
Dear Eric,

I'm writing a letter because
if I did this in person,

you'd probably cry.
[chuckles]

Joking. We probably both would.

I'm not sure what I expected
joining Cri/Res,

but I know it didn't include
taking a life.

When my mother died,
I was alone.

And I felt that way

until I learned
you two had been in love.

Delaine turned her
into an object...

a device.

But knowing she was capable
of love made her human again.

I want to feel that way again,
too.

It just seems so far away
right now.

You hired me to bug you, Eric,

and I hope I did my job well.

But not too well.

With love, Maxine.
