Someone left that envelope
this morning.

But you're all right,
whatever this is?

Yes.

We have an armed robbery
in progress.

Our offender's name, Gary Bell.

Why does he keep
attacking their hands?

It's overkill.

I don't want this
in my head anymore!

No! No!

Your son is dead.

We'd like to inform
his daughter.

Gary said,
"He made me this way."

Who do you think "he" is?

I want an investigative alert
put out on a Raymond Bell.

There's something wrong
in that house.

Good night.

Good night.

Still nothing?

No.

What is it
you're hoping to find?

I don't know.

That's why I'm looking
at everything.

But I'm telling you,
this man is violent.

Well, bike messenger
dropped this off,

practically
in the dead of night.

So you're checking up
on his granddaughter, Julie?

You think Raymond's harming her?

You OK?

Hank?

Who was this messenger?

You catch the company
he works for?

No, but I can find out.

Sarge, you see the alert
that just hit?

Attempted burglary in progress,

two blocks
from Raymond Bell's house.

Just popped on our
investigative alerts...

probably nothing again,
but you want to hit it?

Chicago PD.

Got blood.

Yeah, window's broken.

Chicago PD.

Hello?

Someone's coming.

Yeah.

Oh, thank God.

-Ma'am, are you all right?
-Yes.

Yes, I'm fine.

Is there anyone else
in the house?

No. No, it's just me.

-I would have heard.
-All right.

Can you tell us what happened?

I was upstairs.

I heard loud banging
and then glass breaking,

and I locked myself in
the bathroom, and I called 911.

You did the right thing.

Do you have access
to this doorbell camera?

Yes.

I forgot about that thing.

My son set it up.

I... I never check it.

I should.

Just take your time.

OK, here.

All right.

-Here it is.
-Thank you.

OK.

There we go.

He's being followed.

Hmm.

He was looking for help.

-What?
-He may still be in the area.

Call for backup.

Have an ambo on standby.

Thank you, ma'am.

5021 Union on scene
of the attempted burglary.

-It wasn't a burglary, was it?
-Oh, God.

4581 South Hamilton,
requesting units.

-Hey, what's going on?
-A male victim fled.

Help is on the way, ma'am.

5'10", maybe 160.

More blood.

Imani.

5021, no sign of the victim
or offender,

entering the Woodbury Club
property, east end.

Copy, 5021.

We'll notify responders.

I got a shoe.

Chicago PD. Sir!

Sir, are you all right?

5021 Union, disregard the ambo.

Roll the crime lab
and medical examiner.

Copy, 5021.

-Crime lab and ME now en route.
-Imani...

his hand.

Raymond Bell's son,
his victims...

Yeah.

He destroyed their hands.

Hey, Sarge.

They're pulling prints now.

We should have an ID soon.

-Do we know where he came from?
-Not yet.

The closest traffic cam is
on Crestview and Emerald.

We didn't catch much there.

We lose the offender
and the victim

before and after the door cam

from the footage
of the neighbor.

Well, then just go wider...

PODs, bus cams, taxis.

Nothing yet on the cameras.

Well, then just keep running it.

I want to know
where this kid came from.

And I want to know
how it traces back to Bell.

Raymond Bell?

Father of Gary
of the violent robberies?

That's how we caught this,

had an investigative alert
on the neighborhood.

Charles Bell's house
just blocks away.

That's right.

Look, our victim's hand
looks a hell of a lot

like Gary's victims'...
same overkill, same brutality.

Remember, right before he died,

Gary said,
"He made me like this."

OK, but here, the victim's
entire body is beaten.

The hand might not be
a signature.

They could be defensive wounds.

So indulge me.

Just hit the tech room.

Run every prior hand injury
that pops.

Rest of you,
just keep working the scene.

Get me a rush on those prints.

-Where are you headed?
-You need backup?

No.

Officer.

Sergeant.

Sorry to bother you
this morning.

No, not at all.

How... how can I help you?

There was an assault
in the area last night,

and we're asking everyone
if they saw or heard anything.

No, I didn't.

I'm sorry.

But you would have?

Uh, pardon me?

You were home last night?

Yes.

All night long
with my granddaughter, Julie.

And yeah, if you don't mind...

May I speak to her?

She might have seen something.

Julie.

Julie, this is Sergeant Voight.

He's going to ask you
a question,

and I want you to answer.

Just speak the truth.

-Yes, sir.
-OK.

Hi, Julie.

I was hoping you could help me.

Did you hear anything
last night, anything unusual,

out of the ordinary?

-No.
-Hmm.

See anything out your window?

A person, maybe?

I was asleep.

We were home all night long.

OK.

That's very helpful.

Thank you.

OK.

That'll be all?

OK.

Victim's prints came back
to a Michael Murray.

He's 20 years old,
been in and out of the system,

priors for solicitation
and drug possession,

no LKA.

ME says manner of death
was blunt force trauma

to the skull
with a cylindrical object,

likely a metal pipe.

And the hand?

Damaged from repeated blows.

Ligature marks
on the wrists indicate

he was likely restrained
during the beating.

All right, are we up
on Mike's phone?

-Socials?
-Yes, sir.

Just got mudds and tolls in.

Looks like he was getting
a series of calls

around 9:00 p.m.
from a Romeo Vasquez.

Romeo sent social media
messages demanding cash,

and real colorful language.

Romeo Vasquez,
his phone's registered

to 1361 Low Street, Englewood.

Yup, that's him.

He's got priors
for promoting prostitution

and gun charges,
and he's on parole

for aggravated assault.

Huh.

Dispute over money,
tempers flare.

That leads to violence.

I mean, it sounds like
he might be Mike's pimp.

Vice has the address listed
as a possible trap house.

It doesn't fit with
Raymond Bell, but it does fit.

All right, Torres,
keep working Mike's phone.

Imani, Kev,
let's go visit Romeo.

Copy that.

I asked if your name is
Romeo Vasquez.

It's not a trick question.

You got a warrant
with those questions?

I can get one.

Yeah, well, come back
when you get one then.

Nice piece, Romeo.

Aren't you on parole?

-Go!
-Romeo. Hey.

-Hey!
-Got him, Sarge?

I got him.

Hey, sit down!

-Turn over.
-Clear!

Imani, check these doors.

Hey, come on. Come on.

All right.

-All right, all right.
-Keep your hands up.

-All right.
-OK. Come on.

Stop! You done?

-I'm done!
-Come on.

Clear.

There you go.

You stay put.

Imani, handle this guy.

You, come on.

No, no, no.

I'll talk to him in the kitchen.

Bro, listen to me.

You can go back to prison

or you can talk to me right now.

It's up to you.

You texted Mike Murray
last night demanding money.

That ain't no question, man.

Yes or no?

Again, it's not
a trick question.

Yes.

Mike was going to blow his
whole damn roll up his arm,

kill himself in the process.

What, not good
for your business?

I was trying to save him
from himself, man.

He's got no self-control.

OK.

When was the last time
you had eyes on Mike?

-Last night.
-OK.

9:00.

We were in this kitchen,

arguing about him
shooting up junk.

Then he ran out the back
to get well.

Show me.

All right, man.

He came out through here, bro.

What?

I didn't see that there.

-This his stuff?
-Yeah, yeah.

But I swear,
I didn't know that was there.

All right,
so what happened to him?

I'm telling you, man,
I don't know.

He ran out the back,
shut the door.

That's all I seen.

-Take him back inside.
-Mm-hmm.

That mean I'm done, yeah?

You're not going
to take me in, right?

Shut up.

Morning, sir.

Listen, uh, got a minute?

Sir, we're investigating
an incident

that took place back here
last night, about 9:00.

You didn't happen to see
anything, did you?

There's always
something going down

out here at that house.

-Uh-huh.
-And was there last night?

I was woken up.

I understand.

-I go to bed early.
-OK.

Woke up to screeching tires.

It's always something back here,

so I was pissed.

Looked out my window,

saw a silver car
taking off real fast.

Silver sedan?

That's what I said,
silver sedan.

Make and model?

I didn't have my glasses on.

Did you happen to see
the driver?

-Like I said...
-Right.

No glasses.

Thank you.

That's very helpful.

Roll the crime lab.

Run every camera you can find.

5021 David, roll the crime lab,

back alley of
1361 Ipswich Avenue.

Copy, 5021 David.

Crime lab en route.

I want you to canvass
this entire neighborhood

with photos of Raymond Bell.

You got a connection
on Raymond Bell?

Neighbor saw a silver sedan
speeding away last night.

Raymond Bell drives
an '01 silver Mercedes.

His alibi is fiction.

He was here.

This is him.

Let's go.

Copy that.

Thanks.

Atwater says he still has

no witnesses
other than the neighbor.

Street cams? PODs?

Nope, nothing.

Street doesn't have many eyes.

And cell tower dumps
in both Bell and Romeo's areas

came back empty,
and we can't connect the two

besides the silver sedan
description.

-So widen the cam search.
-Sarge.

Search a mile radius
outside Bell's place.

It took some digging,
but I think I found it.

-A hand injury?
-Yeah.

It's a supplemental report
from 2022.

A man came into the hospital
with a crushed hand.

Doctors reported the injury
as suspicious.

When the detectives came
to question him,

the man insisted that
it was a work accident.

This guy's name
is Aaron Crompton.

He's 53 years old.

Seems he's been in and out
of psychiatric care

since he was a child.

At the time of the incident,
he was working

as a gardener for Raymond Bell.

For how long?

His whole life.

I mean, he grew up
at the Bells' property.

His dad was a gardener there
since the '60s.

He took over when he was 17.

And he was working there
until the hand accident.

Where is he?

Uh... I, uh...

his LK was listed
as a friend named Vivian.

But I spoke to her.

She said he was unwell
and moved out.

She thinks that he's living
in a CTA closet underground.

What?

Yeah, the abandoned
Jackson station.

OK.

Just keep digging in
on Mike Murray.

Imani, with me.

Anything?

Still on hold with Mass Transit.

Hey, hold up.

I ID'd the courier
who dropped off your folder.

-Go.
-I'll meet you downstairs.

-Luke Lombardi.
-Run-of-the-mill deadbeat.

Couple arrests...
weed, pills, DUI.

He's got an ad up online

for an independent
bike messenger service,

probably a front
for pot delivery.

Can you track him down for me?

Yeah.

It's unlicensed,

but I can dig something up.

-Appreciate it.
-Yeah.

Aaron?

Aaron?

We're Chicago Police.

You're not in any trouble.

We just want to talk to you.

Vivian sent us.

Aaron Crompton?

Aaron?

There's definitely
someone living down here.

Chicago PD!

-Stop, stop!
-This is my personal property.

-Hey, hey, stop!
-No one can evict me!

Hey! Hey.

-This is mine!
-Calm down.

Calm down.
No one's going to evict you.

-It's mine!
-Aaron.

Aaron. Can you look at me?

-It's mine.
-Can you look at me?

Hey, hey.

Hey, can you look at me?

We're not going
to evict you, OK?

No one's going to harm you.

Hey, it's OK.

-Yeah.
-Hey.

My hand?

It's always my hand,

everyone wanting to ask.

You've heard of
phantom limb syndrome, yes?

Yeah.

Common with amputations...

neurons firing,
even though they're gone.

So I can feel them.

The fingers, they're there.

They're just not there.

Raymond Bell took them?

Still hurt, even now.

I can still feel it.

For a bag of mulch.

That's why he hurt you?

Thought I stole it.

Caught me, right?

Why didn't you report Bell?

He caught me stealing
half a bag of mulch

and did this.

Understand?

Imagine what he'd do
if I got him arrested.

What do Bells do?

They ring.

Rotten family, all of them,
rotten, rotten, rotten.

Hey, hey, Aaron...

you can still report it.

No.

-Yeah.
-No.

Laws, right and wrong,

they don't mean anything
to Bells.

Raymond...

he came out different too.

-OK.
-Worse.

Worst of a bad batch, bad.

He's a bad man.

-Bad man, bad.
-Hey, hey, hey.

Bad how?

You know.

I know you know.

There are ghosts in that house.

Ghosts?

People come in,
they don't go out.

-Yeah, like who?
-Like who?

-People!
-OK.

A nurse once.

I saw her, drunk.

Prince Raymond carried her
out of his car,

4:00 in the morning,
into the house.

She goes in, never comes out.

I hear screams.

In... always in, never out.

Hey, maybe they were
just having a good time.

No, no, no!

He had me build a wine cellar
in his basement.

OK.

I never saw a single
bottle of wine go in.

Never, never.

A wine cellar, no wine?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

No.

Will any of that be usable?

I doubt it.

I mean, he's not going
to go on record.

Even if he does,
it doesn't fit with Mike.

Not yet.

But if there really are
disappearances linked to Bell,

if people went in
and never came out...

So start combing
through missing persons,

unsolved abductions...

Any nurse who went missing
the last 10 years.

What is it?

Julie Bell was just
admitted to the hospital.

"By the time you're real,
most of your hair has been

"loved off,
and your eyes drop out

"and you're loose in the joints
and very shabby.

-But these..."
-Knock, knock.

-Oh, hello.
-Hi.

My name is Sara.
I'm with Child Services.

And this is Officer Eva Imani.

Yes, I know who she is.

We just wanted to ask Julie
a few questions,

make sure she's OK.

You've had a tough day,
huh, Julie?

Mr. Bell, if you could
give us a minute.

I'll be right outside, Julie.

And remember,
just always speak the truth.

-Yes, sir.
-OK.

Mr. Bell.

Now, why did I expect
to see you here?

Oh, well, ever since
your son's case,

I get flagged on
everything related to Julie.

All right.

So what happened?

Well, she wasn't supposed
to be climbing that tree.

-No?
-No.

Branches are weak.

It's root rot.

She hit every limb
on the way down.

Oh, God.

Grandfather said
not to climb it.

Its branches are weak
because of root rot.

But you climbed it anyways?

Yes.

I hit every limb
on the way down.

It's kind of weird, though.

Yeah, 'cause, I mean,

Julie's teachers, they describe
her as quiet, polite.

But at home, she's disobedient?

So you've spoken
to her teachers?

Yeah.

You really have
a problem with me, huh?

So nobody else hurt you?

Why do you keep asking me that?

It was just a tree.

I know you.

I've known many men like you.

Oh. Well, how's that?

Violent men.

I would never lay a hand
on that girl.

Hmm.

Sorry.

I play games on my phone.

I love those games too.

My sister and I used to play
on Game Boys together

when I was around your age.

I loved them.

You know, if you both
download Candy Crusade,

you can play against each other.

Yeah, I wish we could.

Hey, I've got an idea.

Just in case
anyone does hurt you,

or if you get hurt
for any reason,

you can reach out to me.

Now you have my number.

I know you fell from a tree,

but do you like
climbing trees, Julie?

Yes.

I... I think so.

How about exploring
your granddad's house?

Uh, we... we don't...

Have you ever been
to the basement?

Julie, you don't need
to answer that.

The basement where Mike was?

No. Aurelia.

What?

Aurelia is in the basement,

not Mike.

Who's Aurelia, Julie?

-Officer...
-Aurelia's in the basement.

Do you talk to her?

No.

She's a ghost.

Officer Imani...

Who else is down there, Julie?

This is not a police interview.

Mike Murray... does that
name mean anything to you?

White man, dark hair.

What you are doing is illegal

without a guardian present.

There's no evidence
of wrongdoing here.

Julie fell from a tree,
and she needs to recover.

That means
you need to leave now.

Thank you, Julie.

Aurelia Sloan, 28, went missing

from a park in Englewood
three years ago.

According to her family,
she's an addict,

and she was working as a nurse
at the time she went missing.

It fits with Crompton's account.

Yeah, but Crompton won't
go on the record.

And we can't use Julie's story.

Michael, Crompton, Aurelia...

they're different genders,
ages, different neighborhoods.

There's no clear connect here.

There has to be.

He chose them,
inflicted his violence on them.

Why?

-94 Expressway...
-both abduction sites

were a couple blocks
off the 94 Expressway.

I mean, it could be nothing,
but...

-Run it.
-Do a geographical nexus.

Any missings last seen within
a half mile of an exit ramp.

Hey, Sarge.

You want to see this, trust me.

Yeah, I think
we're going to need

at least five sandwiches,
and just...

Get these out.

All right.

Ooh, appreciate you.

Mm-hmm.

That's 12.

So one source won't go
on record, and the other is

a minor who spoke unofficially?

That's right.

I'd love to help you out
here, but it's too thin.

The 94 connection is compelling
but circumstantial.

Nothing here links
directly to Raymond Bell.

-What about Julie?
-What about her?

She was taken to the hospital
with suspicious injuries.

She's living in the house
with a suspected murderer.

And DCFS made their ruling.

-Dennis...
-Until we can bring

-hard evidence against...
-Dennis. Dennis!

I've looked this man in the eye.

His instinct is violence.

-He will harm again.
-I believe you.

But what we need is
legal recourse.

-She's a child.
-She's not safe.

Why didn't you go
to Chapman with this?

She's been slam-dunking cases
for you the past few years.

Nina was busy.

Right.

I hate this as much as you do,
but I'm sorry.

It's not enough.

I need something concrete
with these old cases...

a witness, DNA,

anything that gets you to Bell.

You get that, and I'll put it
to a judge in minutes.

-We need more.
-What?

Exactly what it sounds like.

We need more.

Let's get the team together,

start hitting all
last known associates

and locations of all
of our 12 missings.

Most of these cases were
years ago.

There won't be any leads.
I know how this goes.

-Everything will be dried up.
-Well, let's hope not.

There's got to be something...

Imani,
you want to argue about it,

or you want to move?

Hank?

What?

Found your messenger.

-OK.
-Lives on the West Side.

Give me the address.

I just want to remind you,
this is just a kid

with a half-baked
messenger service, OK?

Trudy, may I please
have the address?

Thank you.

-Hey, man.
-What's going on?

Let's go inside, Luke.

You a bike messenger?

Uh, yeah, kind of.

You dropped an envelope
at the 21st District

Police Station the other night.

-Who's it from?
-I... I don't...

That instinct
you're having right now,

listen to it.

Who was it from?

Um, I don't look
at what's inside.

Who?

Uh, some guy...

a white guy, like, 50s or 60.

-He...
-Come on.

I don't know.

He... he wore a hat.

It covered most of his face.

Paid with cash at the pickup,

smelled like booze.

Where was the pickup?

Um, it was, like,
on a corner somewhere.

I don't know. Like...

What did he look like?

It was, like, a white guy.

You said that.

What was he wearing?

A... a white T-shirt,

black dress pants, black shoes.

That sounds like a cop.

No. No, no, no. I remember.

Uh, his shoes were shined.

Like, they were, like,
really shiny,

like, there wasn't
a scuff on them.

No, man. This guy wasn't a cop.

He sat behind a desk, for sure.

I need the number
he called from.

-Now.
-Yeah, OK.

Yeah.

What do you mean?

What problem?

Look at this.

What am I looking at?

It's a message from Julie Bell.

Uh-huh.

I think it's a cry for help.

I tried calling back.

I'm not getting through.

I think she's in danger.

How did she get
your phone number?

I gave it to her
at the hospital.

And what else
do we have on Bell?

Nothing yet.

Nothing on the 11 missings.

Nothing on Mike Murray.

But we gotta move on this.

On what exactly?

On this message,
on a girl in trouble.

We crash the house,
claim exigent.

No judge in the world
would disagree.

They would.

Eva, we don't even know
what we're looking at here.

This could be a little girl
messing with her phone.

It could be her grandfather
setting a trap.

I don't care. We gotta move.

OK, we move,
and she clams up again,

then where are we?

So we do nothing?

No.

We do something,

but we do it with control.

Come on.

Before we do anything,
we need to confirm

that Julie is unharmed.

Imani, you'll head
to her school in the morning.

You make sure she's safe.

Then we catch Bell off guard.

This man is proud, arrogant.

In his mind,
he is the smartest person

in every room.

He's the one in control.

But we don't have
enough to arrest.

But I'm telling you,

he won't be able
to help himself.

Raymond Bell.

-Detective Burgess.
-This is Officer Atwater.

We have some new information
regarding the body we

found near your home,
and we were hoping

you could come down
to the district with us.

He'll want to know what we have.

He will come in willingly.

And we let him believe
he can outsmart us.

Sure.

We just make Bell believe

we have something,
something real.

We make him curious.

Eventually,
Bell will want nothing more

than to talk to us,
to prove us wrong.

And we let him talk.

We keep him talking
until he makes a mistake,

until we get what we need.

Have a seat.

So what is it you
would like to know?

Well, why don't we
work backwards?

Let's start with Mike Murray.

He's the assault victim
went missing

near your house the other day.

Do you recognize him?

Aurelia Sloan disappeared
from a park on 21st Avenue

in Englewood, right off 94.

I don't know that name.

Nicholas Harsh,
last seen in an alley

off Sacramento Street.

Mm. Ooh.

That's terrible.

Pat Delaney, reported missing
over a year ago.

You don't recognize him?

Mm, should I?

Last person
to see him alive saw him

speaking to a white male
with brown hair

and a silver Mercedes sedan.

Yeah, well, I guess
that we should call in

every white guy
that owns a Mercedes.

Six years ago,

Elizabeth De Real vanished
from an overpass.

Vanished from an overpass?

Ask him about the park
in Englewood again.

Mm, no, never been there.

You've never been
to Morningside Park?

Why would I go
to a park in Englewood?

Oh, so you do know where it is?

I know where Ford's Theater is.

Do you think I shot Lincoln?

Probably took too many pills,

fell in the lake,
for all I know.

Pharmaceuticals...
it's just too easy

for people to make bad choices.

So you're telling me
this woman killed herself?

Look at her eyes.

She doesn't want
to live anymore.

Press him.

And how can you tell that?

One can tell.

So you can tell
when people want to die?

No. I didn't say that.

Ask him about the park
in Englewood again.

Get him talking details.

See if his story changes.

Did you think I'm stupid?

That I'm harmful?

That I would hurt someone,
a young woman?

I wouldn't.

And I've already told you,
I've never been to that park.

OK.

Oh, no.

I'm sorry.

Sorry.

I'm a little hazy.

Just tired, I guess.

Uh, one more time,
just help me out here.

Uh, sorry.

Um...

Amelia Murray, the...

Aurelia Murray, the... the nurse.

Sloan.

You're right, yes,
Aurelia Sloan.

She... she went missing
near an exit

off the 94 in Englewood.

That... you know, that park,
21st and Highland.

Brookline.

No, it's 21st and Highland.

The playground is
on Highland, one block west.

And the park with
all the homeless people

is on Brookline...
you should know this.

What playground?

The... the fire trucks.

You're right.

OK, yes.

My God.

Were you with Julie
when you were there?

No, I was not with Julie
when I was there.

All right, I'm sorry.

When were you there?

Huh?

When was it?

Did he...

He just admitted he was there.

But you did visit that park.

Just three hours ago,

you said you'd never met
Aurelia Sloan.

I mean, you said repeatedly

you'd never been to that park
in your life,

and now you seem to have
a pretty familiar knowledge

of the park, the playground,
the surrounding area.

Hell, you even know
where the homeless sleep.

So which one is it, Raymond?

Oh, you're mistaken.

Mistaken? No.

I got it all on camera.

I can play it back for you
if you'd like.

I think we've had enough
for one day.

You were there.

Am I under arrest?

Why lie about
something so simple?

I'll take that as my answer.

Now open the door, please.

I am a free man,

and I'm demanding
you let me leave right now.

This is compelling.

Bell tied himself
to the location

where Aurelia Sloan was
last seen.

He even mentions
a playground that was torn down

a month after
Aurelia disappeared.

Meaning he was at that park

during the time period
when she disappeared.

It's a connection, a real one.

I can put a tracker order in.

A tracker?

Put a tracker on any
of Bell's known vehicles.

If he leads us to any evidence,
then we can move.

Are you for real?

There is a child in danger,

and you're giving us permission
to put GPS on his car.

This evidence is enough
for a tracker order.

Well, what happens
when Bell flies off the handle

and beats Julie to death?

How much will the evidence
be worth then?

If you wanted
a different answer,

you should have met
the burden of proof.

I can get you a tracker order.

-Do you want it or not?
-We'll take it.

Yeah, sorry.

I need a tracker put on...

Well, you were thinking
the same thing.

And I controlled it!

Control it.

All right, Kim,
get the tracker order going.

Yeah.

Rest of you, just go home,
get some rest.

We'll start fresh
in the morning.

Hey, Julie.

No!

Julie?

Julie, it's Officer Imani.

Julie.

Julie, it's Officer Imani.

I'm here to help you.

Julie?

Julie? Julie?
