Previously on
Criminal Minds: Evolution...

-Get down!
-(grunts)

Agent Lewis's prognosis it not
what we might've hoped for.

REBECCA:
No matter how scared you are,
no matter how hurt you are,

-I'm here.
-LEWIS: Rebecca, this team,

they're my chosen family.

That's why I needed to ask you
this in front of them.

Will you marry me?

Darcy's place was tossed,
wasn't it?

You think Darcy found something?

Something the Disciple needed
time to catch and kill.

How you doing there?
What's the matter, boy?

You look like you seen a ghost.

ROSSI:
The Disciple knows
more about Voit

and his condition than Orlov
could've ever told him.

So, what, someone in
the hospital is part of this?

Let's just lock everything down.

PRENTISS:
I'm going to recommend
that your nursing staff

be completely turned over
every two weeks.

That's impossible.

Unfortunately, it has become an
unavoidable security precaution.

(indistinct announcement
over P.A.)

Perry? John Perry?

-Hi. I'm Dr. Julia Ochoa.
-Hi.

So it says here
you've been an orderly

-at Melgren for 11 months?
-Yep.

No criminal record.
No disciplinary issues.

-Occasionally tardy.
-(chuckles) I can...

I'm working on that.

So, what have you heard
about this position?

Uh, I know it's a two-week gig.

Then I rotate back downstairs.

And I know it involves a VIP.

Well, he's actually not a VIP.

We're treating a high-value
informant for the FBI.

So we have to go
above and beyond

our usual
HIPAA security standards.

Every record
gets submitted twice.

Every syringe
gets accounted for.

And your phone stays
in your pocket at all times.

Got it.

I mean it about the phone thing.

We've already had
to let some people go.

This job pays double-time,
right?

That's right.

Well, my wife has instructed me
to tell you that,

in this economy, I will
suck dick for double-time.

So I can keep my phone
in my locker.

Okay, thank you.
Well, we'll be in touch.

Despite his social graces,
his supervisor says he's solid.

Not straight A. But solid.

All right, well,
put him on the short list.

Who's next?

JJ:
Simple question.

If the Disciple can
talk to you like he's Cyrus,

who else knew
about you and Cyrus?

No one.

When I was in Cyrus's house,
it was just him and I.

Then how did he become a person
of interest in a local case?

Wait, he was? When?

2004.

No, I was gone by then.

Wh-Wh-What was the case?

Silvio Herrera.

Silvio...

Never heard of that guy, but...

(indistinct P.A. announcement)

(phone vibrates)

Mm-hmm. I saw that.

(chuckles) Hey.

Give me a break?

M-My kid, he woke up
with a 103 fever.

(sighs) Want to bring him in?

No.

But my wife, she's working
nights all weekend.

-I'm not on call, am I?
-(tablet chirps)

You're good.

Keep it in your locker.

* *

(sets down gun)

*

(Andrew whimpers)

(gasps)

(screaming)

(panting)

* *

Hey, how's that
little boy doing?

Well, the fever broke,
thank God.

But only after I drugged him
to get him to sleep.

What's going on here?

Strap yourself in for ten hours
of watching paint dry.

(Perry chuckles)

It's a waste
of our goddamn time.

We're never finding
the Disciple this way.

Maybe not, but we have guys
from the network in custody.

One of them
will start talking to us.

We're closer than you think.

*

-(knocking at door)
-VOIT: Hey.

Oh, hey. How you feeling today?

Uh, good, good.

Good.

Is there something else
I can help you with?

Oh, yeah, um, do you,
do you like dark chocolate?

I love dark chocolate. Why?

Oh. Good, then...
maybe you'll like this.

Oh. Well...

First of all,
thank you very much.

Very welcome.

And secondly,

Elias, I'm your doctor.

-Yeah-- Oh.
-And that means...

No, I-I know. I just--
I-I don't even like that brand.

-I thought maybe...
-I don't need gifts.

-Okay? This is my job.
-Yeah, I-I know.

I was just thinking-- I--

Look, I don't know
what I was thinking.

I'll-I'll just take it back.

Oh, whoa, get out of here.

You're not taking back
my chocolate.

(chuckles softly)

(phone chimes, vibrates)

(typing rapidly)

GARCIA:
What?

Huh? What?

(gasps softly)

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

No.

Oh.

(breath trembles)

I know. Assemble the team.

-Is this...
-We're gonna find out,
all of us.

-The team. Now.
-(stammers) Yeah.

Yes, this is SSA Prentiss
for the Deputy Attorney General.

I understand.

Please pull him
from the meeting.

-What do we have?
-Go ahead, Penelope.

Last night,
Kathy Wolner was shot

point-blank in her home
with a nine millimeter.

Based on the irregular
muzzle imprints,

Manasses PD believe that
the unsub used a suppressor.

-Kathy Wolner?
-Who's Kathy Wolner?

She's the wife of Trevor Wolner.

GREEN: One of the guys
on the network

we arrested before
they could kill themselves.

-They have a son.
-Yes. Andrew.

He wasn't on the scene.

The locals believe
he was abducted.

And they also found this.

Signing their work
like they always do.

Yeah, but what they don't do
is take a hostage.

So why start now?

Continued leverage.

What is
the one consistent element

of Voit's old network
and this new one?

Suicide pact. You kill yourself
before you get caught

so you don't bring down
everyone else with you.

JJ:
So the Disciple
is sending a message:

This is what will happen to you
if you don't follow through.

The network is closing ranks

and eliminating
any lead we have.

Then Voit's a target, too.

Dr. Ochoa has him on lockdown,

and I've doubled the number
of marshals covering him.

We need to secure everyone
we have in custody

and their families

and the victims we saved
in the Tate Andrews case,

just to be safe.

Rebecca's coordinating
with the Bureau of Prisons.

We are going to divide
and conquer everyone else.

Shit.

What happened?

Trevor Wolner hung himself
in his cell this morning.

And as for his partner,
Steve Morris,

yes, he was
in a different facility,

but two hours ago,

he jabbed a sharpened pencil in
his carotid artery and bled out.

The network must have
gotten to him,

so he took himself
off the table.

That leaves two suspects
for us to worry about.

Uh, Ronald Graber's brain-dead,

and, um, Voit
already killed his family.

Which leaves Kyle Mackey,
the Undertaker.

I have a call in
to FCI Petersburg

to have him put in solitary.

Okay. I will have
Garcia follow up.

-Can you have his ex-wife
and daughter brought here?
-Yeah.

We are in a race
with the network,

and we're already behind.

(line ringing)

This is Rebecca Wilson
with the DOJ.

I need to put in a WITSEC order
for Torres, comma, Lainey

and Mackey, comma, Ava
to MCB Quantico.

CARD Team has us on their
notify list for the boy.

If they have a lead,
we'll be the first to know.

Work this out with me.
The network shoots the wife

to show they're not kidding
and then keeps the boy

to make sure Trevor Wolner
goes through with his suicide.

-Yeah.
-Wolner and Morris
are off the table.

It's mission accomplished.

So what's the Disciple gonna do
with a ten-year-old boy?

Let's go find out.

To gain access to my network,
I needed collateral

so that I could...
scorch the earth.

Scorch the earth meaning,
if they don't kill themselves,

you kill their whole family?

Yeah.

Did you learn that after killing
Ronald Graber's family?

Maybe.

Inspired by.

But after Graber, I never...
actually went through with it.

(Green sighs)

I think he might be holding back
because of me.

-Should I step out?
-No.

We want him on his back foot.

Let's say you did do it.

Would you ever take a hostage?

Or spare a child to make sure
that they went through with it?

No. That's not how you
scorch the earth.

(water running)

JJ:
Okay, then why...

why would this unsub
abduct a ten-year-old

-and not kill him?
-(faucet turns off)

OCHOA:
What? (stammers)

What am I missing here?

Elias?

(door closes)

Hey. Guys. Wait.

What was that all about?

The unsub didn't take Andrew
as collateral.

He took him because
he's a pedophile.

Hey, hey, hey.

Were you able to secure
the survivors with the Disciple?

You know, the truck
and the spiders and the...

We did. They're safe. Why?

Well, I'm on Undertaker duty,
which is a phrase I hate saying,

and it turns out
that Mr. Kyle Mackey,

although remanded
to FCI Petersburg last week,

they have no record
of actually receiving him.

This isn't over.

How is that possible?

A great question--
great as my outfit today--

that has baffled both me
and the intake officer.

Well, it looks like
you're not the only one.

-More bad news?
-What else?

Lainey Torres and Ava Mackey
disappeared this morning.

GARCIA:
No. No.

That means we've lost our
bad guy and his whole family.

Lainey told her detail she was
dropping Ava off at school.

They never came home.

Cell phones are off.
No credit card usage.

No sign of her car.

Just poof, gone.

So we're oh-for-three
with the network?

No bodies yet, but based on
the pattern, it would seem so.

Okay, I need a pick-me-up.
Can I see your engagement ring?

Oh. (chuckles)

Uh, actually,
there-there was something

-that we wanted to talk
to you about.
-(phone chimes)

LEWIS:
Uh, yeah.

Maybe-maybe not now. Emily
needs me on the second floor.

No. No, that's not fair.

You can't say there's
something to talk about

in a happy way and then drop it
because duty calls.

Okay. Walk with me.

GARCIA:
Okay.

(gasps) Oh, I totally
forgot to ask.

How are you doing with the...?

Uh, better, yeah.

I mean, still moving slowly.

Rebecca won't let me lift
anything heavy,

which is very sweet,

but I had to draw the line
when she told me

(raises voice):
I was brushing my teeth
too hard.

REBECCA:
Well, you do.

-Gingivitis kills, Becs.
-REBECCA: Uh-huh.

Okay, in-in regards to this news
you're gonna tell me,

is it lawful good
or chaotic good?

I don't know what that is.

-What? Are you kidding?
-(elevator bell dings)

You've never played
Dungeons & Dragons

in your entire--

Never mind. All right.

Boiling it down,

-lawful good means doing good
within the system.
-Mm-hmm.

Chaotic good means
you're a rebel

with a conscience and a cause.

Will you marry us?

What?

Rebecca and me.
Will you marry us?

Yes.

Of course, yes.
A thousand times, yes.

I can't believe
you're asking me.

-LEWIS: But not so tight.
-Oh, God, I'm so sorry.

I forgot that you got, um...

Ooh, wait,
why are you asking me?

Well, because I'm chaotic good
and Rebecca is lawful good,

and you're the best parts
of both of us.

That's the loveliest thing
anyone's ever said.

Look, I'll let you know
the date, okay?

-(elevator bell dings)
-When we set it.

-Yes. You better. Okay.
-Okay.

-All right.
-Oh.

(pained sigh)

Hey. What do we got?

Another package
was delivered to us

with the same handwriting on it

as the box
with the Yase-Otoko mask.

-Is it another mask?
-I don't think so.

Why not?

This time,
they sent us something bigger.

(beeping rapidly)

-(hammer pounding)
-(wood cracking)

(hammer pounding)

Notify the CARD Team.

(door opens)

(door closes)

Where's my mom?

-JJ: Hey.
-Hey.

How's he doing?

His aunt and uncle
are on the way.

Pediatrician says that
he's completely unharmed.

Physically, anyway.

But there's s-something else.

What is it?

When I told him
that he was at the FBI,

he asked to speak to "Agent JJ."

We're recording?

Thank you.

(door closes)

Hi, Andrew.

Who are you?

I'm JJ.

-Were you guys playing Rat Slap?
-You know how to play?

Are you serious?

I crush at Rat Slap.

Can we? Yeah?

Okay.

(sighs)

Let's see. Got to make sure
they're shuffled really good

so you don't cheat.

All right. There we go.

(places deck on table)

So...

I heard you wanted to talk to me
about something?

There's a prayer.

I'm supposed to say it to you.

A prayer?

(gasps) Mm.

Yeah. They made me memorize it.

They did?

There's more than one?

Did you see their faces?

No.

They wore these... weird masks.

Okay, what about their voices?

Were their voices deep or--

-(Andrew places card)
-Ah.

They sounded like the girl
on TikTok.

You know, that fake voice.

Oh.

Were they...

...nice to you?

The first guy,

he wasn't nice
when he came to my house.

After that, they were very nice.

Then one of them told me
I had to go to sleep.

That's when they told me
the prayer.

Do you want to hear it?

I do.

Okay, it goes,

"Now I lay me down to sleep.

"Your husband's soul
is God's to keep.

"Lainey and Ava will be safe...

...if you release the man
who dug their graves."

That's it. That's the prayer.

Andrew, you're a very brave boy.

And you are also
kicking my butt,

so I am gonna go

get Agent Stacey to come in
and play with you.

-Okay?
-Okay.

Take it easy on her?

(JJ chuckles)

Bye.

-Those motherfuckers.
-Just hang on.

They threw my dead husband
in my face.

Yeah, they did, okay?

But Emily thinks
that they overplayed their hand.

What?

JJ, the network has made
a critical error.

But to understand it, we need
to go over Andrew's prayer.

ANDREW:
"Lainey and Ava will be safe

if you release the man
who dug their graves."

-Who are they talking about?
-It's a ransom demand.

They have Lainey and Ava.

They're willing to trade them
for Kyle Mackey, the Undertaker.

-The one who dug their graves.
-But why give us this message?

They got to the other two
without making demands.

Because they couldn't find him

-in the prison system either.
-ALVEZ: Exactly.

They assume we already

released Mackey
to protective custody,

so they're trying
to trade for him.

Except the collateral
they're offering?

-They don't have it.
-They don't?

No, they don't.

I had Tyler talk to the marshal
in charge of their case.

He told us something critical
to our investigation.

GREEN:
We are on the record
with U.S. Marshal Andy Murray.

-Thank you for coming in.
-Any news on Lainey or Ava?

Not yet. That's what we're
hoping you can help us with.

Can you walk me through how
you learned they were missing?

Lainey didn't return
from school drop-off.

After 30 minutes, I initiated
witness recovery protocol.

But when I searched
the apartment,

I saw that their closets
were empty.

-Empty?
-Yeah.

Fucking bone dry.

Our concern was
that they were kidnapped.

But they're on the run.

Someone tipped off
Lainey and Ava.

Told them they were in danger.

So the network tried to bluff.

And trick us
into releasing Mackey.

ROSSI:
Yeah, but they wouldn't go

this big unless
they were this desperate.

Which means
we're not out of the race.

There are suspects and survivors

who I think can help us
crack open the whole network.

We have to find them,
all of them.

Garcia is looking
for Kyle Mackey.

Luke, I want you helping her.

Dave and I will stay
on wife and daughter detail.

JJ, I need a word.

We haven't talked about
the first line of the prayer.

Why would they bring up Will?

To dysregulate me.

To push my buttons.
To make me make a mistake.

That has been the pattern,
hasn't it?

They push our buttons,
we screw up.

But the buttons

are getting
more and more precise,

to the point where a little boy
used your nickname that...

Who else knows about that
outside of this team?

Not a lot of people.

Shit.

This case has a leak.

I have Garcia running
a systems analysis

in case they hacked us.

Who else should we be
looking at?

Uh, the survivors
from the back of the truck.

Tara's covering that.

I'm covering everyone
under our roof. Who else?

Uh, Ochoa's staff at Melgren.

-Can you...
-I'm on it.

(exhales)

* *

-(knock on door)
-Uh, uh, just a minute.

-Dave, you wanted to see me?
-(stammers) Oh, hang on!

What the fuck?

(closes drawer)

Okay, now, when does
"hang on" mean "come in"?

What's wrong with you?

What's wrong with me?

What are you hiding?
What the hell is that?

Ozempic.

Ozempic is administered
by injection, Dave.

(sighs, mutters)

Look, I... I took your advice.

I've been seeing a psychologist,

who referred me
to a psychiatrist,

who's put me on a low dose of...

(mumbles):
Well-bu-bur-ten.

Never heard of that drug.

Wellbutrin.

Okay?

As it turns out,
the combination of the therapy

and the antidepressants
actually have

made a difference in...

on my whole seeing weird stuff.

I love it!

-Oh, come on!
-I know.

-Get it together!
-Okay. Yes...

We love to hear it!

-Very, very nice.
-Ah.

-Now, okay.
-Oh, God.

Now, good. Now that
your end zone dance is over,

I have this hunch
about the Disciple

that is a waste of my time.

But since I can't make you

write on the chalkboard that
"I will not come in

before David Rossi says
'come in,'"

I will waste your time instead.

So, please, sit down.

(chanting):
David Rossi. David...

(imitates crowd cheering)

There you are.

What are you doing?

GARCIA:
Oh, no, no, no.

Don't even try to be charming.
You will fail.

I am at the red line,

and the red line says,
"She has had it."

And that "she" is me.

Emily asked me to check to see
if we've been hacked, and...

Oh. It looks like we're clear.

And meanwhile, I'm still trying
to find this Kyle Mackey person

somewhere in the prison system
we've lost.

And I have told you not to chat

with your fantasy football
buddies on here.

(scoffs) All right, look,

if I help you find
this certain lost inmate,

can you keep the football thing
under your hat?

Oh, that entirely depends
upon how helpful you are.

When I was
on the Fugitive Task Force,

I got an education
in how the prison system works.

Inmates go missing because
their names get misspelled

or Social Security numbers
get written down the wrong way.

Sometimes they get sent
to the wrong prison

because people get
their wires crossed.

Okay, so, to not go down the
rabbit hole of the complicated,

I'm gonna start
with simple clerical errors

and look up Kyle Mackey's name
in prison requisition forms.

Uh, respectfully,
I have a better idea.

Why don't you pull the paperwork
that his lawyer filed?

(sighs) Fine.

I still get a little mad
when you have a good idea.

Wait, there it is.

"Kyle McKay." His lawyer typed
it wrong on his admission form.

Looks like he got sent
to Devens Prison Camp

instead of FCI Petersburg.

Mackey planned this all along.

He knew that
once we arrested him,

the network was going to put
a target on his back.

But thanks to you...

We got our last bad guy back.

ALVEZ:
You're a hard guy
to find, Kyle.

You want to know how we did it?

No?

Well, I'm gonna tell you anyway.

See, here's the thing
about collateral.

It has to hurt to lose it.

But Lainey and Ava, you...

you didn't care if they died.

Hell, you buried
your daughter alive

and then asked the network for
tips on how to get away with it.

And you gave them
two family members

you didn't really give
a shit about as collateral.

But you were never gonna
off yourself, were you?

No.

Guy like you always has
one last move to make.

Indeed I do.

Well, we're here now.
You better take your shot.

On the network,
there was a discussion

about something called
"Project Checkmate."

As in, the last move.

The one that wins the game.

And I'll be happy to tell you
all about their little plan.

But you got to let me walk.

You're a murderer, Kyle.

We don't let murderers go.

Well, you might.

If you get to catch
all the other murderers.

-We can't.
-No, we're not going to.

"A," it would be stupid.

"B," this could just be another
head fake from the network.

Get us to look right
while they move left.

We either got to trick him
or coerce him

into giving us
Project Checkmate,

-but how do we do that?
-(sighs)

He wants another shot
at his wife and daughter.

He's nursing
a narcissistic wound

that they got away
the first time.

What if we pour some salt
in that wound?

If we find them,
we could taunt him

that they're beyond his control.

Yeah, we got to find them first.

And I don't understand
how they've been so good

at staying off the grid
this long.

Uh, maybe they had help?

Yeah, but who would want
to help them?

And be that good at it?

Elias told me
that you'd promise me

a new life,
but it wouldn't matter.

And he's right.

-JJ, what?
-(chuckles)

I know exactly who helped them.

Who?

Are we sure about this?

We will be in about 30 seconds.

Let's go.

Hands behind your back.

-What?
-Behind your back.

What's going on? Ow.

(grunts)

Fuck. Easy.

Is it you? Huh?

Where is it?

Are you the one that's been

leaking information
about this case?

VOIT:
What? No.

-You're not gonna find anything.
-You sure about that?

(sighs):
Oh, Jesus.

Elias, where did you get this?

I can't tell you that.

You told Lainey and Ava to run.

Hey, where are they?

I can't tell you that either.

Jesus. Let's go.

Elias Voit, you're under arrest
for obstruction of justice

-and conspiracy
to commit murder.
-Elias, think about this.

-I did.
-You have the right
to remain silent.

-I'm sorry
if I disappointed you.
-Anything you say can

and will be used against you
in a court of law.

You have the right
to talk to a lawyer.

If you cannot afford a lawyer,
one will be appointed to you.

With these rights in mind...

...do you wish to speak to me?

I'm glad that
it's you doing this.

You deserve it.

Yeah.

I have no idea
how this happened. (stammers)

Call Metro Police.
Have them sweep the room.

I-I guess, bring in
the crime scene tech team,

and they have to be
thorough-- now.

(sighs softly)

(exhales)

(sighs heavily)

Um...

I invoked.

I thought you might be lonely.

(sighs) All right, w-wait.

Do you have a piece of paper?

(Rossi sighs)

* *

For you.

(snickers)

Any luck unlocking Voit's phone?

GREEN:
I.T. has it now.

Here's what they can tell.

Voit wiped it
and reprogrammed it.

But the passcode on it,

it's got a "one strike
and you're out" protocol.

So if we guess once
and we're wrong?

The phone is bricked.
Total garbage.

(sighs) Well, one thing
we know Voit's good at,

it's blowing up evidence
he doesn't want us to have.

Yeah, looks like we're stuck
until he decides to cooperate.

-Not quite.
-No?

No, there's still
the question of how

he got the phone
in the first place.

JJ and I think there's a leak.

But this phone cements
our suspicion

that it's someone
on Ochoa's staff.

So he's been in front of us
the whole time.

Yeah. Well, not for much longer.

(computer trilling)

And...

You're clear.

OCHOA:
Gracias, Teresa.

Next staff member, please.

-Hey, John.
-What's all this about?

Elias Voit,
our high-value informant,

he got his hands on a phone
he shouldn't have.

JJ:
We need to see if it was

a careless error
or if someone slipped it to him.

-Uh, can we check yours?
-Look, I did take it out,

-but it was just the one time.
-GARCIA: That's not
what we're looking for.

We need to see your SIM card,

'cause it has identifying keys
that might be

a match to the phone
we recovered,

so fork it over, please.

Thank you.

(computer trilling)

And you're clear.

OCHOA:
Thanks, John.

Next.

-Hey.
-Hey, Monica.

I'm so sorry about this,
but we need to...

I know the drill.

Thanks, Monica.

All right.

(computer trilling)

(humming)

ICCID and credit card
are a match.

What? A match?

-What does that mean?
-You need to come with me.

(stammers) Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.
What did that thing say?

JJ:
We are gonna go talk
about that.

If you refuse
to answer questions,

we will have to place you
under arrest.

But what did I do?

That's what we're gonna
go talk about.

Julia, you know me.
It wasn't me.

-It wasn't me.
-Okay. This way. Come on.

I can't believe this.
Do you think I would destroy

my career over Elias Voit?

Are you kidding me?

So, Dave had
a waste-of-time hunch

that wasn't
a waste of time at all.

Oh. Which was?

What if the Disciple is a woman?

Based on what?

Voit used collateral
to scorch the earth,

but the Disciple didn't
scorch the earth.

-Instead, he...
-Or she.

...or she sent us back
a little boy.

-Not only that, he...
-Or she.

...or she took pains

to make sure that
the little boy wasn't hurt.

They masked their voices
around him.

Because Andrew
would have noticed

if a woman
had taught him a prayer.

So we went back over
the Cyrus LeBrun case.

We looked for any connections
with a double-X chromosome.

Well, I went over
that file, too.

Cyrus was a person of interest

in the Silvio Herrera case,
but he was never interviewed.

And the reason
he was never interviewed

is because
the North Carolina State Police

were told
he was out of the country.

Huh. Who told them that?

The woman who answered his door.

20 years old.

She identified herself
as Tessa LeBrun.

She said she was
Cyrus's daughter.

And Cyrus was not the type
to procreate.

This is from 2004,
so Voit had left Cyrus by then.

He'd outgrown Cyrus.

He wanted to be his own man,
his own killer.

So Cyrus replaced him.

And Voit 2.0 would have
had to been someone

that Cyrus could
completely dominate.

-Any leads on where she is now?
-We're looking into it.

She's got to be 40 by now.

And brilliant enough
to run the network.

How many people do you know who
are this good with computers?

We can take Penelope
off the table.

Who does that leave?

Voit.

Maybe Tessa inherited
his knowledge.

Maybe he taught her.

Either way, we need him to talk.

And there's only one way
that can happen.

(chuckles)

You ever play this
with your girls?

It's my turn. Give it back.

Who-Who's better at it,
uh, Holly or Harlow?

Yeah, I know this trick, Dave.

You get me talking, and then
I just tell you everything.

Can we just play
the game, please?

Are we really gonna do this?

Are we really gonna
wait for a lawyer?

-Yep.
-A lawyer

who, let's face it, is not
gonna want to take you on

as a client,
because your lawyers die

faster than the drummers
from Spinal Tap.

I-I'm not sure if it's
the amnesia or you're just old.

But I don't,
I don't get that joke.

You know what I think?
I think you didn't leak dick.

Don't tell me. Tell your team.

Now, you-you got a phone
somehow, but it was just to-to

reach the mom and her little
girl and tell them to run.

That's all.

(sighs)

Am I close?

Why do you always think
you know me?

Because I do.

I knew you
when you were a killer,

and I know you now.

And I know that saving Ava
from being buried alive

did a number on you.

-Am I wrong?
-You're wrong.

Oh, well, then,
she didn't remind you

of your own daughters?

Nope.

Well, then, you are

the psychopath
you've been all along,

and you fooled all of us.

So, what do you think?
You think I...

I-I stole a phone

someone left
at the nurses station so that

I could use everything I know
to help keep

Lainey and Ava off the grid?

That's exactly what I think.

Wow, I must be

a real son of a bitch
to sabotage your case like that.

Everyone else thinks that,

but they haven't seen
what I've seen.

Something I've never seen
in 40 years of profiling.

A psychopath
who's grown a conscience.

So, where's Lainey and Ava?

I-I can't trust you
with that information.

Why not?

Because you're not good enough
to save them.

No matter how good you are,
no matter how good your team is,

innocent people
always wind up dying.

Sometimes it's because of me,
so for once,

I wanted to help save lives.

And help them stay saved.

Elias, I swore I would
never make this promise again.

But I promise we will keep
Lainey and Ava safe.

But we can't
until you unlock that phone.

(elevator bell dings)

-ALVEZ: Ava!
-(giggles)

Luke.

Hey, what's up, kid?

Aah!

(chuckles)

Hi, Lainey. How are you?

Not great. Tyler said

something about us
moving us to a safe house?

It's already set up, but, uh,

-we need your help
with something else.
-Come on.

After everything
we've been through?

Hey, Ava, you want to come
with me to the family room?

It's got really cool toys.

No. I want, I want
to stay with my mom.

It's okay.
I'll be right behind you.

And, look,
we'll be right in here, okay?

Just in here.

No offense.

I'm just still
having nightmares about

my asshole ex almost
burying my daughter alive.

Yeah, I get it.

And that asshole ex
is actually why you're here.

Oh, God. Now what?

He's, uh, ransoming
his cooperation for his freedom.

And we were hoping that maybe
you could say something to him,

get him to talk.

(sighs) Where is he?

This way.

Tessa? (stammers)

You're sure her name is Tessa?

Yeah, she told the cops
she was Cyrus's daughter.

-That name means nothing to you?
-No. I've never heard of her.

(door opens)

(door closes)

I need a minute.

Alone.

(door opens)

Listen to me,
you limp-dicked sack of shit.

I will personally tell
everyone on cell block D

you tried to kill
your own daughter.

Spousal privilege.

We can't listen.

LAINEY (over speakers):
So think about

how many times
you're gonna get fucked

unless you tell them everything
that they need to know

right now!

(door opens)

He'll talk now.

(door closes)

Those guys
in the back of the truck,

the guys you rescued, they're
the loose ends, after me.

That's Project Checkmate.

They kill them,
then they disappear.

Bullshit.

It is.
It's what they talked about.

Bullshit.

(sighs)

We know how the network
thinks now, Kyle.

We know how they move.

They leak misinformation
to scramble our profile.

And then they get away clean.

So let's start here.

Who is the leak in this case?

Yeah, we know about that.

(sighs)

Okay.

There's this guy.

Calls himself "the Engineer."

And he showed me how to rig up
the explosives in my coffins.

And he made the, uh, small ones
with the spiders.

Uh, and also, uh, for his gun,
he made this, uh,

this, like, silencer thing.

Keep talking.

Well, if anyone's leaking,
it's him.

But that makes him
the last loose end.

After me, he's the most direct
connection to the network.

'Cause he knows too much.

This Engineer, what's his name?

I don't know.

Then what good are you?

Uh, w-wait, wait, wait.

When he, when he made
his, uh, silencer,

he bought a 55-gallon drum
as an agitator to, uh--

-Shit, how did he put it?
-(fingers snap)

To anodize the aluminum.

Make it as quiet as possible.
(chuckles)

There's not a lot of guys
in the District

that can do that, right?

If what you're saying
gets us to this Engineer,

then perhaps God

and the justice system
will take pity on you.

But if this is
another smoke screen,

God himself cannot save you.

Is anodized aluminum a thing?

Oh, it's a thing.

And based on that size,
he's right.

Not a lot of people could do it.

You think we're still
in a race with the network?

Yeah, I do. Why?

I think, for the first time,
we're in the lead.

I'm being set up.

I believe you.

We just had a break in the case.

Look, somebody--
somebody skilled--

bought a cell phone
using your credit card,

had it shipped here, intercepted
it before you could get it.

He calls himself "the Engineer."

Can you think
of anybody like that?

"Engineer"?

No. God, you don't work here
if you're an engineer.

Okay.

Well, you're-you're free to go.

-Monica, I am so sorry.
-(groans)

(door opens, closes)

Monica's worked here
longer than I have.

She has two kids.

How could I ever think
that she would do this?

Can you think of anyone
who would want to frame her?

No. I mean, you were there.
You saw it.

Everyone else checked out.

-Tell me you have another way
to catch this guy.
-(phone chimes)

We do, actually.

Please tell me I don't have to
accuse anyone else on my staff.

No, but my team has to try
and convince the Internet

that someone who's still alive
is actually dead.

Who?

This guy. Kyle Mackey.

(typing rapidly)

* *

-Hey.
-What's all this?

The survivors from
the Tate Andrews case.

If the Disciple takes the bait
that Kyle is dead,

then, yeah, he should
head for the Engineer.

But just to be safe,
we're gathering them here

and we're staking out
their homes.

Seriously? That's eight
simultaneous stakeouts.

That's-that's a hell
of a lot of resources.

Emily called in a lot of favors.

Where are we with the Engineer?

LEWIS:
There are a handful
of industrial plants

with anodizers that big,
but like you thought,

only one was purchased
by a civilian.

A guy by the name
of John Peters.

Delivered to his home
in Manassas three months ago.

That is right next to last
night's victims, the Wolners.

Of course it is.

They've been putting
the pieces in place

for Project Checkmate
for months.

We're in the process
of getting a warrant.

Judge Robinson is being a pain
about probable cause.

-Push.
-I am.

We have Alvez and Tyler
patched in.

Guys, you copy?

GREEN:
Copy.

We're here.

Okay, we can't breach
for an arrest,

but if the Disciple
comes for Peters, move in.

Should be easy to spot.

Especially if the Disciple
loves that stupid mask

as much as the network does.

Anything?

-Lights haven't even come on.
-Where are we with the warrant?

We're working on it.

This place is dead.

Hey, are we sure
we have the right address?

(exhales) We got fucked.

Yeah, but who's doing
the fucking?

We have a problem.

The property is registered
to a John Peters,

but he lives in Miami.

He hasn't been inside that house
for five years.

PRENTISS:
What did I tell you?

You lied to us, Kyle.

There's no Engineer.

-There's nothing.
-There is.

I swear to God, there is.

He laughed about it.

About how he lived
right outside your zip code

and you didn't even know.

Oh, God.

ROSSI:
What? What? Hey.

-Oh, no.
-Whoa, whoa, whoa,
hey, hey, hey.

-No, no, no.
-Talk to me. What is it?
What is it?

In our decades of experience,

when have we ever had
as many unsubs this close to us?

What do you mean?

PRENTISS:
Franklin Fowler,

Clyde Smets, Kyle Mackey,

Bob Kinney, Tara's shooter.

We've been so busy chasing them,

we haven't stopped to ask
the obvious question.

Why are they in our backyard?

This is how they checkmate us.

They split us
in eight directions.

Stretch us so thin
we can't respond in time

for their final move.

But what's the final move?

Who did we leave exposed?

Voit.

* *

(clears throat)

After everything
we've done for you,

I have done for you...

-Look, can I just explain?
-No.

No, you cannot.

You are going to listen.

Elias, I defended you.

I justified you.

I protected you.

And still, you don't... (sighs)

Whose phone was it?

I don't know.

I just found it
on the nurses station,

-and I thought...
-Of course you did.

Of course you did,
because that is who you are.

You know, you may not be
a psychopath,

but you're not
a good person either.

Tomorrow morning,
I'm putting in for a transfer.

-Wait, no, no.
Where are you going?
-Oh. (scoffs)

I'm staying here.

You are being transferred
back to minimum security.

Goodbye.

(muffled shout) Elias!

-Get the fuck off of me!
-(shushing)

-Just stop talking.
Stop fucking talking.
-Elias!

Let go of me!

We're in trouble, okay?
Something's wrong.

How do you know that?

Because it only gets this quiet
when I'm about to kill someone.

(silenced gunshots)

(silenced gunshots)

(Ochoa whimpering)

OFFICER:
All teams take positions.

Possible active shooter,
Melgren Medical Center.

* *

(gasps)

* *

JJ:
Clear.

PRENTISS:
This is SSA Prentiss.

We need immediate backup
at Melgren Medical

due to a mass shooting.

Gunman is at large.

I repeat, we need backup
for a gunman on the loose.

DISPATCHER:
SSA, we copy.

Medical and backup is en route.

Is Voit...?

He's not here.
