Making bread from scratch for your husband and children.

Making bread from scratch for your husband and children.

Making bread from scratch for your husband and children is a basic way to

love you.

Oh, and it's fun.

Better than girl bossing for a job that won't love you back.

Let your husband bring home the bacon.

You can cook it.

Let me try again.

I can do better, I promise.

Please.

Please let me go!

Please!

Okay, I think I can do all of the drop -offs this week.

My pick -ups might be a little bit... I can cover pick -ups again. I just have

meetings on... Friday?

Yeah. Okay, I got that. Oh, I wanted to let you know that I've actually booked

more therapy appointments for Ella on Monday.

First one really seemed to help.

It did.

Do you know that she asked for a play date this weekend?

Which, by the way, thank you so much for taking her to that therapy session.

Work with... Well, work.

I talked to the shrink just at the end, you know? Mm -hmm. She thought that

Ella's misbehavior... Sucking a kid in the eye, yeah?

Yeah, she thought that might be from a lack of stability.

Hmm. I know.

Maybe she spends Mondays at our house with her cousins.

My hours are consistent.

I'm always home for dinner.

It wouldn't be a burden at all.

This is her home.

I'm spending the night.

I think that if we're shuffling her back and forth even more, it will make

things worse.

Ellie can stay with us.

Thanks.

Graveyard shift found the body an hour ago. White female, late 20s.

Any ID?

Not yet, but M .O. matches two other women dumped in the sanitation

system over the last few months.

Which makes it a serial killer.

Oh.

Any idea where the killer first dropped the body?

You know, 900 tons of trash comes through here every day. All gets loaded

barge to Newark, then scattered to landfills across the East Coast.

First Vic popped in Virginia, second upstate.

Best guess where any of them started?

Brooklyn. Not a bad way to hide a murder.

Perp's not just sick, he's smart.

It's not exactly novel to hide a dead body in the trash.

How do you know it's the same perp?

Another pretty blonde dressed for tea at the plaza? Cut up in the same... plate?

I ain't got the stomach for this Jack the Ripper stuff.

The Emmy will fill you in.

Killer cut out her uterus using a very sharp precision blade with unique edging

characteristics. Same as the other victims.

Tell me she was already dead.

Perimortem wounds, I'm afraid.

She bled out during the attack.

Patterns of the incision suggest a great deal of anger in your killer.

So she felt all of it.

Most of it.

If the MO stands, I expect the talk screen to come back paused for

Levels in the last two, they weren't enough to keep them sedated, just

Triazolam, is that easy to source?

It's a sleep aid. Anyone crying insomnia can get a script.

Were these abrasions on the other Vicks?

Yeah, some kind of shackle.

Scabs and bruising suggest she's been held captive for at least three weeks.

I did find one odd thing in the incision.

What's that?

Don't know. It's extremely sharp, like stone or glass.

I'll send it out to be identified.

Strange. They didn't find this in the other victims.

All right, I know that Jubal is out for the week, but we have work to do. We are

already on our third serial, Vic, and I do not want a fourth. What do we know?

Emmy ID'd our victim as Stacy Wilkins. She was reported missing last month in

Greenpoint. Cause of death, involuntary hysterectomy.

Same as our other victims, Alicia Tomlin and Valerie Narvaez.

They're all single, late 20s, working low -wage jobs. I think our perp

has a type.

And a pattern.

Kills one victim, takes another captive the next day.

And since the ME said Stacy died 48 hours ago, in all likelihood, he's

abducted his next victim. Let's get Eric up here to profile the victims.

Your killer's got quite a calling card.

Organized, ritualistic.

No evidence of sexual assault on any of the victims.

but cutting out the reproductive organs.

We're dealing with someone who hates women.

Well, ViCap didn't pull up any matches, so I thought maybe it'd spark something

for you.

I've profiled serials with surgical elements, organs taken as trophies, but

of them were gender -motivated.

What about abductions?

These women were held, restrained. This kind of captivity is rare without sexual

assault.

The murders could be a recent escalation.

It's not a character for men who have a preference for blades that start with

aggravated assault, so don't look for murders.

Try local assault.

Men who use blades on women.

No need for those currently incarcerated.

He's 85.

Guess we can rule him out. The second one has early onset Parkinson's. His

incisions wouldn't be this clean.

That leaves... Ray DiStefano.

Serial slasher.

They figured 10 women before he went down for aggravated assault 12 years

He was released a month before the first victim was taken.

You know him.

I'm going to put him away.

Go.

Stefano hasn't checked in with his P .O. since the first disappearance.

Here we are.

FBI!

Do it.

You didn't say he was an artist.

Yeah, he said reality was his canvas.

It's a lot of crap.

Hey, Maggie, you're going to want to see this.

He's been watching you.

Me.

How

well

did you know this guy?

He was my first arrest.

We got a tip that he was stalking a new victim and so we intercepted him outside

of her house one night and he ran.

I chased him onto a train.

You know, I didn't have backup. Got dicey, but I took him down.

Anyway, his obsession with his victims got turned on to me.

He was writing me letters from prison for years.

Abby, you should have been notified when he got out.

Hey!

FBI, stop running!

Little bat!

Stop running!

Maggie Bell?

Hey.

Tell us about these women.

Pretty.

Who are they?

You know who they are.

Your victims.

Are there any more?

Now, don't be jealous, Maggie.

Cut the act.

After 12 years away, it's not enough just to cut the women now.

I need to destroy them.

Kicking in my door.

Stomping around.

You could have just called if you missed me.

Hey, three bodies. Start talking now. You spend a lot of time with this oaf.

But he's not your baby daddy.

Tell me.

Maggie, who was it who left you alone with your

precious little Ella?

You don't insult it.

You don't think I actually did this, do you?

All these girls, their cuts are hidden by their nice little dresses.

Then you want your marks to be seen.

Face, that's best.

Jet.

Hands.

I just want to be remembered.

You never forgot me, Maggie.

Because of that nice little reminder I gave you.

Looks like I know you better than your partner.

The car is gone.

possible.

I marked you. I marked you deep.

Healed.

Prove it.

Show me.

It's gone.

Like you were never there.

You're done. You're done. Get in here. Get in here. You're done.

You're done.

You okay?

I didn't know.

I didn't know that he was so close to me.

And Ella.

But she's okay.

You don't have to worry about him. He's going to go away for a really long time.

Not long enough.

Because he's not our guy.

What are you talking about?

He wasn't lying.

He cuts to disfigure, not to kill.

And our victims were left beautiful faces unmarked. Their hair, their

everything was done, even weeks after being in captivity.

Yeah.

What if... What if the guy we're looking for doesn't have a type?

What if he makes them into his type, his perfect woman?

Hey.

I just heard. Are you okay?

Yeah.

Okay, and me pulled a partial print from a button on Stacy's dress.

Doesn't match anyone in the system, including Stefano.

Okay, blades in his apartment don't match the woman's either.

We've got to find the connection between these three women.

Then let's talk to the people who love them.

Copy that.

Stacy was more than my roommate. She was, like, my best friend.

Tough as nails, but had such a kind heart. Like, I always wanted to dye my

pink for, like, ever, but I was worried it looked dumb, so Stacy dyed her hair

with me.

Stacy dyed her hair pink.

When? Like, three weeks ago for Riot Fest in Chicago.

Okay. Stacy was found with blonde hair.

When was the last time you saw her?

Um, right before I left for Riot Fest.

Then her boss reported her missing a few days later, I guess.

Why did she stay?

For surgery, she was getting her tubes tied.

Her tubes?

Did she have a medical condition requiring that? No, it was elective.

Cece knew she never wanted kids.

The first talk that Cece had, he was awful to her. He tried bullying her out

it. It really shook her up.

She didn't deserve this.

Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

Okay, we confirmed with friends and family that all of the victims pursued a

tubal ligation shortly before disappearing and all were denied. So

coincidence. Well, Agatha Christie said two coincidences are a clue, three are

proof. All three victims have copay charges on their credit cards to the

OBGYN practice.

Owned by a Dr. Adam Marion.

Privileges at Mercy Hospital.

There's no prints or records in the system. His son also works in the

Wait, I have a message of Dr. Marion on a childless by choice message board.

Never heard of that.

Doesn't mean it's not real. A post from two weeks ago warning women to stay away

from Dr. Marion.

He was rude, paternalistic, and creepy when my girlfriend went for a TL

Do not trust this guy with your health care. Who posted this?

The screen name tracks back to a Daniel Luna.

firefighter with the FDNY Ladder 105, not affiliated with any of our victims.

Let's get Maggie and I over there now.

Daniel Luna, FBI.

Oh, thank God. Have you found her?

Found who?

Hannah.

Hannah Rosella.

R -E -S -E -L -L -A.

I don't get it.

If you didn't know about Hannah, then why are you here?

Our investigation into a serial offender unearthed your post about Dr. Adam

Marion.

Doctor?

The dino? Yeah.

Did that scumbag take Hannah?

That's what we're trying to figure out.

If we're going to find her, we're going to need your help.

Why does she see Dr. Marion?

Depression.

Runs in Hannah's family. She didn't want to pass it on to kids.

Dr. Marion claimed that having a baby could cure her depression.

Which part?

Postpartum hormones or lack of sleep?

Right?

Anyway, he asked me what I thought, like I was her keeper.

I'm a legacy firefighter.

My dad died on the job when I was 10.

Really messed me up.

It was kids or the FDNY for me I chose the job.

Dr. Marion told her that my career was even more of a reason to have kids.

How did you spend that one?

Because if I died, then at least she'd still have a piece of me.

Did she see Dr. Marion again after that first consult?

No. She was afraid of seeing him again.

She went down a rabbit hole, started looking into him and his wife, even

their weird trad wife videos.

Sorry, trad wife?

Yeah, traditional wife.

You know, stays at home, does all the things, and then sells the lifestyle on

social media.

Doc, you played the part of the perfect husband.

If he did this, we'll find her, Daniel.

NYPD has zero leads on Hannah Rosella. If this is a kidnapping, we have to

it. Please tell me you're something.

The doctor's wife, Darcy Marion, her trad wife videos had a viral following

until her death last summer.

Making raisin cookies from scratch for your husband and children is the perfect

way to say I love you.

She looks exactly like our victims.

You can cook it.

If he's taking these girls... It's to recreate his dead wife, which means

Rosella could be his next victim.

I've seen a lot of disturbing online trends, but tradwifery's gotta be... You

got a problem with stay -at -home mom, Scola?

Whoa, I'm not falling for that one.

Well, I don't know who would romanticize a 1950s housewife.

He didn't even open a bank account.

Uh, necklace scan's live. Yes, it's ready for the doc's car. If he's got

Rotella, it'll lead us straight to her.

All right.

Do I look like a patient?

Hi, I'm Maggie Gant.

I have a tubal ligation consult with Dr. Marion.

Yeah.

Hope, why does my dad get all the pretty patients?

Shush, you... Maggie, you can wait in room one, straight down the hall. Thank

you.

You're in great hands.

Maggie, Maggie, Maggie.

Gloves. Getting a print won't be easy.

She'll figure something out.

Please strip from the waist down and scoot to the end of the table for me.

Oh, I'm just here for a consult.

It's just a joke to break the ice. You can relax.

It's funny.

I hear you want a tubal ligation.

Mm -hmm.

And I take my job very seriously, so I need you to understand that while some

legations can be reversed, it is considered permanent.

I consider it my duty to ensure that you've thought this through.

Do you have kids already?

No, I don't. And no one is coercing you into this procedure, a husband, a

boyfriend? No.

I'm single.

But how can you be so sure that you'll never want kids?

My job.

I'm a consultant, and I have a different client every week.

And they need all of me.

And if I had a child, they would need and deserve all of me.

My GPS has been secured

to Dr. Marion's vehicle.

Skola. We have a problem. The big guy in the plaid shirt is Daniel Luna,

Hannah's boyfriend. I think he's going to go pay the doctor a visit. We cannot

let that happen.

I'm on it.

You remind me of my wife.

May she rest in peace.

She was also afraid that she'd mess up our kids.

but maternal instinct.

As biology, I promise you women know how to be mom.

Daniel Luna, Special Agent Skola with the FBI. You are about to walk into an

active undercover investigation. I don't care. That bastard knows where Hannah

is. This is my choice.

So if you could please just sign the paperwork and...

Schedule my procedure. I would appreciate that.

Look at me. You are going to jeopardize our ability to find her. You son of a

bitch. Those were his years. And he's going to tell them. No, Daniel.

No, he's not.

He's not telling you anything.

If it was your girlfriend, what would you do? I'd pray for a team like ours.

Can you take off your gloves?

I have a latex allergy.

They're nitrile.

Allergy friendly.

Man's careful.

You good?

I'm good.

I'm good.

All right, Daniel, stand it down.

Would you consider an IUD that's up to 10 years, fully reversible?

I can do it today.

This guy's relentless.

Guys, the ME said that the flakes he found in our latest victim are obsidian

-founded areas with volcanic activity.

Weird. Some cases weird.

I mean, I've heard that IUD insertion is quite painful.

Do you have anything stronger than ibuprofen?

Smart pivot.

I have something.

It's a muscle relaxant. It'll reduce your anxiety. It might knock you out a

but I'll take care of you.

I've never heard of it.

That's it.

Triazolam, the drug's found on the other Vicks. Good work.

We'll get the prints another way. Get out of there, Maggie.

You know what? I'm driving.

But I promise I will think about it.

Okay.

Hope will take good care of you at the front.

Thank you.

Here you go.

Let me make a copy of these.

Just a moment, hon.

Pretty cool, huh?

They might add the collector.

They're flaked from volcanic glass.

Stone Age surgeons used them.

Wow. Are they obsidian?

They are.

And they're still 500 times sharper than any steel surgical scalpel.

Hmm.

Adam Marion, you're under arrest for murder.

Excuse me?

You heard me.

What? Wait, wait, wait, wait. Murder?

Hey, stop. Dad.

Well, at least you told the truth about having a demanding job.

What am I doing here?

Grieving.

You know, I know what it's like to lose a spouse.

To lose the person that you love the most.

Who deserved so much more out of life.

And they just get ripped away from you.

So now all you can do is really just hold on to every little piece of them.

No matter what it costs.

Sorry for your loss.

But this empathetic act won't work.

I already know you're a liar.

You'll never get her back.

I know that.

But you try, anyway.

These women came to you for help.

But you didn't like their lifestyle choices.

Right?

So you try to change their minds.

You make them look like your wife, Darcy.

Try to get them to be more like her.

And when it didn't work, you killed them for what they wanted.

No, no, that is absolutely not true.

All of these women were at your practice.

That's a coincidence.

Your obsidian scalpel was a match for the murder weapon.

Triathlon, your drug of choice, were found in all three victims.

No.

The triazolam was ordered by accident. I was just trying to use it up. And I

didn't even notice that a scalpel was missing. Where are you holding Hannah

Rosella? I don't know what you're talking about. I'm not who you're

I'm a doctor.

You're a murderer.

You don't agree with my values? Fine. But I would never harm a patient.

Certainly not in Darcy's name.

I took an oath like you.

my prints, my DNA.

There's not a lawyer here because I have nothing to hide.

I mean, Doc's got me convinced. You think he's putting on a show, or... It's

strong possibility we have the nexus right, but maybe we have the suspect

The profile also fits his son, Josh.

Maybe he's trying to work through his unresolved issues with his mother.

to bring her back, in a way.

Maybe... Wait.

Fingerprint analysis just finished their reconstruction.

Dr. Marion isn't a match.

But the high bridge density of the full print suggests we're looking for a

female killer.

How many females we got working at the practice?

All right.

Employer records show two part -time nurses cross -referencing their time

with victim consultations.

Neither of them had interactions with all four victims.

What about the receptionist?

Josh called her Hope.

I'm not seeing her name in the employee files.

You think a receptionist would have the medical expertise to pull off something

like this?

Weekly bank transfers from Dr. Marion to a Hope Adkins.

Looks like he's paying her under the table. Where do we find her?

Phone's off. Can't track it, but I'll send you the last known address.

It's Hooper Street, Williamsburg.

Kitchen, it's clear.

And we're clear.

Clear.

Are those organs?

I think so.

It's from an animal, right?

No.

I don't think they are.

Where are we with Hope Adkins' location?

Scrubbing her laptop, no leads yet, unless you consider a treasure trove of

Julia Child Recipes leads.

I'm firmly a takeout girl. But we do have her basic history.

Hope Adkins grew up in poverty to a single mom.

Community college in Steuben County, but was expelled six months in for

attacking a female professor of women's studies.

Jail time?

No, did a stint at a psychiatric hospital.

Afterward, bounced around from one minimum wage job to another.

Not an easy life.

Have we figured out her connection to the Marians yet?

Yes, I think I have.

I went back through Darcy Marion's Tradwife posts. I found one unique

that commented on every single one.

At Tradfan28, the profile's completely blank, but the IP address linked to the

account came from Steuben County.

That's pretty thin. I know, but check out these comments.

You're so blessed, Dr. Marion. It's the perfect breadwinner.

What a hunk. I wish I had your life.

If this was Hope, she would fixate it on Dr. Marion.

It's severe personality disorder.

She was convinced he was the solution to her problems, likely stalked him,

sought out a job at his clinic to get close, probably pursued a relationship

with him. So, he might know where Hope is hiding.

Good Lord.

Hope, are you sure?

I hired her after my wife died. I was in mourning, you have to understand,

and... A pretty young girl walked into your office.

Well, it wouldn't be the first time, would it? It wouldn't, and she

you. Her attention was flattering.

But I broke it off six months ago.

How did she feel about that?

She was sweet to me.

She understood my reasons.

Which were?

Well, if I got serious with someone, I'd want children and hope.

Couldn't.

How could you possibly know that?

Well, I'm her gynecologist.

Oh.

When Dr.

Marion rejected Hope for not being able to conceive, she turned her anger on

women who were choosing sterilization.

If this were a one -off, we'd call that motive, but in the case of a serial

offender like Hope Atkins... It's a precipitating event.

Gold star.

Unfortunately, it doesn't get us any closer to finding Hannah Rosella. Maybe

this does. It looks like videos of the victims on Hope's laptop.

Trophies, I guess. All of them are like this.

Making bread from scratch for your husband and children is a basic way to

love you.

Oh, and fun.

Better than girl -bossing for a job that won't love you back.

Have your husband bring home the bacon.

You can cut it.

It's like a twisted screen test.

Seeing if they can live up to the image of Darcy Marion and when they fail.

Look at the background.

That's not her apartment.

We're Dr.

Marion's. Wherever it is, this is where Hope is holding the victims.

Hannah, too.

You guys hear all those birds in the background of these videos?

What if we run the sound through that bird watcher app, Kelly Love?

Two different birds identified.

The white -throated sparrow. It's too common.

They're everywhere.

You're a bird guy.

Farm family. And the palm warbler, native to the Adirondack wetlands and in

breeding season congregate around Farnham Fog.

I'm going to narrow this down.

I'll check her family's property record.

Okay, on to something.

Hope Atkinson's mother remarried ten years ago, became Pernal.

Saranac Lake PD investigated Hope's stepfather's death as a suicide.

Address is listed as 267 Maple Lane.

Hope is here. Hopefully with Hannah.

Everyone, back in the house.

Set.

It's got to be in the basement.

Here.

Help.

Help. Help.

Hannah, we're the FBI.

Send an ammo to our location.

You're safe now.

Stay with us, okay, Hannah? You're going to be okay. Help is on the way. We need

trauma dressing down here ASAP.

Maggie, she's in the wind.

SWAT, be advised, suspect's fled into the woods. Let's get the perimeter and

vehicle in case she comes back.

Which way?

Maggie, I got something.

Yeah, so do I.

Okay, she's trying to throw us off.

Well, she can't be far.

Okay, split up.

You need to put the knife down.

It's the only way you're walking out of here.

Not the only way. Put down the knife.

I'm so tired.

I'm a pretty girl.

Their lives are just exhausting.

No security.

And you're just trying to help them.

They have a gift. I tried to show them that. I tried.

But they couldn't be saved.

They didn't deserve what they had.

And their gift is being able to have children.

That's what women do.

They weren't broken.

So now you're taking your anger out on the women who are choosing infertility?

You don't understand.

Hope, you need to put down the knife. Right now.

No.

I can help you. No one's ever helped me a day in my life.

i've never been enough having your own children doesn't dictate whether you are

enough

Hey, Bug.

Hi. How you doing?

Okay. All right. Can you go upstairs and get cleaned up?

Mm -hmm.

Thanks. See you, kiddo.

Homework is in the outer folder.

Great. The water bottle is in there. Great. Uh, Gavin, can I talk to you for

second?

Yeah, of course.

It's about Ella's routine.

What if she did stay with you?

Uh, full time.

I think it's what's best for her.

Hey, we can figure it out.

I love Ella.

And I love Jess, and I really wanted to be able to do this.

But if I keep Ella, I'm putting her in harm's way.

I can't do that.

Okay.

Whatever time you need.

You know we love Ella.

We're always here for you.

Let's talk about it more tomorrow.

Okay.

Where are we having ice cream for dinner?

Oh, if you don't want it, I can make you some fish sticks.

Ew, gross.

I'm kidding.

We don't have fish sticks.

When have I ever given you fish sticks?

Sometimes you just have one of those days where you need ice cream for

And today was one of those days?

Yeah.

You want some more fudge?

No thanks.

I'm good.
