Hey, what's up? What are you scared of?

Hey,

mama. Hey, I've got a job for you if

you're interested.

Where is it? Not too far.

A small town outside of New Orleans.

What do you got?

Missing 15 -year -old Anton Crawford.

He was supposed to take the bus last
night, but he never made it home.

Could be a runaway.

His dad doesn't think so. He's offering
a $10 ,000 reward.

Said his son is the second teenager to
go missing from the area recently.

All right, I'm a couple hours away.

Send me the details. I'll see what he
has to say.

Thanks for coming. Of course.

So it's you and your son living here?

Yeah, my wife, Anton's mom. She passed
away a couple years back.

Cancer snuck up on her and it went fast.

Sorry to hear that.

I'm guessing Anton took that pretty
hard.

Yeah, he did.

She was the one who knew how to talk to
him.

I do my best, but it's not the same.

Is it possible he ran off?

I don't think so.

I was at work and wasn't here when I got
back. When was that?

This morning.

I work on the oil pipeline and long
hours, lots of nights, so he has to take

bus. Normally he texts me his movements,
but not last night.

No phone calls, no texts, phone out of
service.

What do you think's going on?

I scraped Boston and Anton to a school
with a good music program.

Trade -off is he has to fend for himself
when I'm at work.

You mean he's being bullied?

It's a good kid, quiet.

Not many friends. Serious about music,
so, yeah.

It happens.

Okay. Saw the heavy bag out front and
the baseball bat by the front door.

yeah. Figured if it ever went down and I
wasn't there, he could handle it.

But now I'm starting to think he tried
to fight someone off and made it worse.

What can you tell me about this other
kid that we're missing?

Kevin Perkins.

A couple doors down, the story was he
ran away.

His body washed up off Lake Catawatch a
week later.

Police said it was a robbery, right?

Maybe it was.

Maybe it wasn't.

This place has a darkness.

A lot of people don't see it at first,
but it's here.

When you talk to the police about Anton,
what do they tell you? What do they

say?

Same old.

It's only been a day.

Reach back if he doesn't turn up. Living
the resources, all that.

I got someone trying to help.

Who's this?

Jeannie Veach.

Detective here in Marrero.

We've been seeing each other. Casual.

She's the one that suggested I hire you.

Hmm.

Name doesn't ring a bell.

It wouldn't.

She heard about you from a job you did
in New Orleans a few years back.

Said you see things others don't.

Sometimes.

I'll talk to her.

See if we can help you out.

Detective Veach, Colter Shaw.

Good to meet you. Thanks for helping us
out. Heard you were the best. You bet.

This is the place where Anton's phone
last pinged? Just after 8 p .m. last

night. Then nothing.

Okay. Find anything in the area?

Haven't done a search yet. Just got
here.

Dion tell you about the neighborhood boy
we fished out the lake? The police

report said it was a robbery gone wrong.

You think there's more to it?

I didn't tell Dion.

No need to worry him more.

But that's not the only body we found.

Third teenager in the last five years.

You think there's a connection?

Just that they're from the same
neighborhood.

So why isn't the rest of your department
looking?

Oh, they are. Well, we had some cutbacks
and, you know, there's only so much

manpower.

Look, Anton's a good kid, and his dad is
worried.

So you're helping them off the books?
Yeah, I'd do anything for him.

He's a good man, and Anton's got a
bright future.

Dion mentioned something about this
place having a darkness.

What is that? Explain that to me. On
this side of the river, yeah.

I lived here my whole life. I like it
here. It's home.

But it almost swallowed me up.

How so? I was a foster kid, bouncing one
crappy home to the next.

Most people called me a stray growing
up. No real home, and nobody really gave

damn. So when you ask about the
darkness, I can tell you it's real.

It's like something in the water around
here.

You don't see it at first, but it's
here.

And you stay around long enough, it'll
get you.

Why stay?

There's a lot of strays in these
neighborhoods.

A lot of kids ain't got anybody looking
out after them.

Guess I...

Just wanted to help light the way out
for a few of them, you know?

I know you think it's BS, but it's the
truth. I don't think it's BS, no. I

you and I are on the same team.

So where's home for you?

Me? Small town in Northern California
called Echo Ridge.

Never heard of it. There's no reason you
would have heard of it. Nothing really

goes on there.

And that's why you left?

Not exactly.

Seems like there's a story there.

Yeah, you could say that. These tire
tracks look pretty fresh, don't they?

It's not that way, huh?

Something over there.

What? It's like a reed for an
instrument. It could be a saxophone.

Right?

Is there blood here?

Anton could have been attacked.

We need to look at that camera.

we might be able to find out what
happened here.

Yeah, I can track down the owner, get a
warrant to look at the footage.

You got a faster way, actually.

Because the last time I let you choose,
you went with a Cali Shark when the

clear correct choice was a Shannon.

Louvre, baby.

Louvre.

Oh, hold up. Mama, I got to call you
back.

Okay, love you too.

All right, bye.

Coulter, what's happening, man? Zoma
gave me the rundown on the job.

What you need from me?

Listen, I'm standing under a convenience
store right now. They got security

cameras. Can you hack in for me?

Mm -hmm. Let me see what we're working
with.

All right, give me a sec to boot up. Oh,
by the way, when we get down to New

Orleans, we've got to try Babsy's. They
got these beignets.

Fire.

Are you eating again right now?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm an old -school
carb loader. But you know me. I can

multitask.

Say I got your location.

Uh -huh.

Boom. Easy.

That's got to be a record, right?

You looking at the footage?

I did you one better.

Linking you up to it now.

Beach.

Look at this.

There we go.

You know these guys?

It's hard to see, but yeah, they go to
school with Anton.

Okay.

Boom.

Got him.

There you go, Anton.

Hold on a second. Who's this? This guy
right here lagging behind.

Doesn't seem like you're too interested,
does he?

It's Cal, Kenneth.

That's who I need to talk to. Let's go
talk to Cal.

Randy, thank you very much. You got it,
man.

How you doing, Kyle?

Parents home?

No.

What do you want? We're looking for
Anton Crawford. No, he's not here, okay?

Go look tomorrow.

Don't you like a warrant or something?
No, no, no, I don't. I'm not a cop.

When's the last time you seen Anton?

Did you hear her?

We know what happened at the bus stop.

Your friends beat him up. He stood
there. He didn't do anything.

You want, we can take this down to the
station, but that's your call.

Hey, just tell us what happened.

Fine, I was there, okay?

But I didn't hurt him, I swear.

Well, what happened after you left the
bus stop?

Y 'all ran after him.

Hmm?

You watch your friends finish what they
started. If you're protecting them, that

makes you an accessory.

What do you want me to say?

Okay, those guys like giving in on a
hard time.

Why is that?

I don't know.

I do care the fact that we're regular.
It's different.

What, you've never been to high school?

Homeschooled. What's that?

You hiding something?

Why are you running?

What'd you do with Anton?

You gonna tell us why you have Anton's
things?

Look, I helped him, all right?

He's weird, but he's actually my friend.

I wanted to make sure he was okay.

So why the hell'd you run?

Because I'm no snitch.

And I don't want it getting around that
we're friends. It's pretty spineless,

letting them guys beat on your friend.

I don't know that.

But if people found out, I'd be getting
beat down, too. What happened next?

I brought him back here.

I just gave him a change of clothes.

I mean, I even offered him a ride home,
but he said he had somewhere he had to

be.

Where?

I don't know.

He just, he said it was important.

I mean, that's why he was in a rush.

Why he left all his stuff here.

What you got?

Who's Sherry Cheval?

No, that is... I'm not asking you to
snitch on anyone.

I'm trying to help you out. I'm trying
to find your friend. So if you know this

woman... Yeah, Sherry's... Sherry's this
older lady he was hanging out with

after school.

Hanging out how?

I don't know what the deal is, okay?

I just know that they jam on music.

I mean, he says they're just friends.

You think it's more than that?

Whenever I ask Anton about it, he
just... He acts all shady.

He says, I won't understand it because
I'm not a musician.

Look, I picked up a weird vibe, but...
Anton's an odd dude, so... I impress

All right, then.

Copy that.

Tell me about Sherry Cheval.

She's a local pianist, but she's got a
rap sheet, drug possession, fraud.

Why would someone like Anton get mixed
up with her? Her dad said he's straight

as an arrow.

Music?

Why that?

I hope so, because she's also got a
kidnapping charge on her sheet. A minor.

beat it, never got put away.

How's something like that happen?

I'm not sure.

Records are sealed.

Let me guess. You got somebody that can
help with that, don't you?

Might. Eat your cherries?

Coulter. Hey, Rini.

Listen, I'm down in New Orleans and I
hit a snag.

Really use your help.

Yeah, I've got like two seconds.

Okay. This kid I'm looking for, he's
with an older woman.

With as in with?

Unclear. Okay.

All right, so she got picked up for
kidnapping in Tuscaloosa a couple years

for the records deal. Do you think you
can get into it?

Yeah, it's going to be a minute. There's
something I need to deal with, but I'll

let you know what I can do.

Well, I appreciate you. Okay, got to go.

He just showed up. Did he say anything
else? Yeah, lots of opinions.

Our plant game sucks.

He doesn't like the exposed bricks.
Something about the lighting?

Okay, let me deal with him. All right.
Good luck.

Thank you.

Well, well, well.

This is a surprise.

Are you going to sit or do you have an
opinion on the chair?

I know it's not a Ralph Lauren club, but
it really does do the job. In the area,

I figured I'd see what my money is
buying.

I do have other clients, Mr. Sharp.

Call me Leo.

And I'm jealous.

Other clients, huh?

I might have to do something about that.

Well, I'm not really a single client
kind of gal. If you're looking for that,

you're in the wrong place.

We'll see about that.

You could have texted or called. Let me
know you're going to swing by.

I could have.

I take it that you had a chance to look
at what I sent you on Tiffany Cosby and

her company?

I did.

Nice work.

Yeah, I wouldn't call it nice.

But I did what you asked.

Is this the part where you judge me for
leveraging her out and removing her from

the company?

No.

But is that your thing?

I have many things.

Lawyers, too. I'm aware.

So, why did you pick me for this?

I needed a killer.

And don't pretend you're not that.

Look, Leo, I get it.

You were testing me on this brief,
seeing if I would blink, right?

So let's just skip to the part where you
tell me if I passed your little test or

not. You did.

Great. If there's nothing else.

Sheldon Grimes.

Sits on the board of my company.

One of the founding partners, right?

And if memory serves, it was his tech
that brought in the VCs.

Dropped out of MIT, big fan of Phish,
and failed at two other startups before

you partnered with him.

I could go on.

No need.

What's the job? I need some leverage on
him.

Leverage?

Is that what we're calling it these
days?

Call it whatever you want.

Let's start there.

I'm sure you can use your imagination.

And if there's nothing to find? There
always is.

Okay. I'll draft up the contract.

Contracts?

Who needs the paper trail?

You have my word.

Charming. I can be.

And you're going to need this.

I want you to call me on this from now
on.

Really? We live in a surveillance state.

To think otherwise is naive.

Good to know.

But there are limits to what I will do
on your behalf.

I'll double your hourly fee and slip in
a healthy retainer if you indulge my

discretion on this.

Okay.

You mind if I have my decorator swing
by?

Call it a free consult. I don't do
gifts.

Don't want you thinking I owe you
anything.

Walk out.

Sheriff Duvall, Jefferson Parish
Sheriff's Office. Open up.

Hello?

No one's here.

It's actually packed in a hurry.

Think that's the shirt Cal gave him?

Maybe.

Not sure about the suit, though.

Anton definitely came here and changed
before he left.

This is enough to put out an APB on
Anton and Sherry. So she brought him

left the door unlocked, no sign of a
struggle.

Maybe she groomed him, had them under
her spell, and he went willingly.

Maybe he went with her because he didn't
have a choice.

Who's there?

What?

Saxon Shaker Jazz Club.

APB got a hit on Sheriff's car.

The club's owner is Hugo Bowman. Comes
from an old New Orleans family.

You know we're looking for Sherry? No, I
was vague, but if anyone can help us

find her, it's him. He used to go to
wild parties back in the day.

But then he went legit, started buying
up old music joints, turned them into

spots.

Anton ever mention this place?

Not that I remember.

Checked in with Dion. He don't recall
anything either.

Let's see what Hugo has to say.

You win.

I'm in love with you. Well, all right.

Okay.

You win.

Baby, what can I do?

I'll do anything you say. There's Hugo.

It's just got to be. Hey, Hugo.

Detective Veach.

Good to see you.

Good to see you. This is Colter Shaw.

It's your place?

Yeah. I own this building and three
others in the quarter.

You said it was urgent.

What could I do you for?

There's a car parked out in your lot.
Belongs to Sherry Cheval.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. She plays house piano.

Something wrong?

She working last night?

Well, I don't know. I wasn't here last
night. Who was?

Well, it would be my manager, Jessica.

Jess, got a minute?

Sherry Cheval.

She working here last night?

Yes, she was on.

Supposed to work for me tonight, too,
but she no show.

What's up? We have reason to believe
she's involved in a kidnapping.

A kidnapping?

Sherry. What's going on here? She was
with a teen, Anton Crawford.

He hang out here too?

Does it ring a bell?

You sure about that?

Speak up if you know something.

Okay.

Look, Anton really likes the music and
he wanted to earn some extra cash.

He works as a barback for me, but he's
not 16 yet, so I pay him under the

Working here last night?

He was, with Sherry.

After that, I don't know.

The car's still here.

Maybe she left with somebody.

Other musicians?

Maybe. When you were here, did you see
them maybe talking to anyone?

I was mostly behind the bar.

We were crowded, and I was just focused
on getting the customer served.

Okay, thanks.

We'll let you know if we have any
further questions.

All right, well.

Come around if you need me.

Excuse me.

Anton told Cal he needed to be
somewhere. Said it was important, huh?

We're missing something.

If you're gonna be my man, baby, take me
by my hand. Cherry's car is here.

You think she took him so well? What?

Not without the manager noticing.

Come on.

What are you looking for?

These old buildings in New Orleans,
they've got secret exits, right, for

things like that?

Sure. A lot of old smugglers' routes.

Looks like an old bootlegger's passage.

Prints going in both directions.

Looks like they're still using it for
something.

Look at this.

Looks like pictographs.

You're right.

Let's see where it goes.

That lock looks awfully new, doesn't it,
for building this state?

Rose petals.

Haven't been here long.

What's going on here?

This isn't voodoo, is it?

Definitely not. This is old magic.

It's got a lot of names, but it's baked
into the culture around here.

You ever seen anything like this before?

Oh, yeah.

There's a lot of believers in and around
the quarters.

I've seen this kind of setup more than
once.

On a disorderly call, find somebody
preparing a ritual or ranting about

unlocking the powers of their souls.
People that practice this call

infinity.

Infinity. Don't ask me what it means.
Just something I heard them call.

You seem to know a lot about it. Well,
one of my foster home stops, the guy

there was way deep into this.

That's the first time I ever seen a drum
circle or pyre. They're the hell out of

me.

What is it?

We got a body.

The name's Gabrielle Ladeau, 15 years
old.

Asphyxiation most likely caused by
poison or overdose.

You get any time involved?

I don't think so.

Maybe Sherry believes in Anthony and got
Anton sucked into it somehow.

I don't think Sherry's mixed up in this.
I saw a Bible on her nightstand.

Doesn't track the dark magic or ritual
sacrifice.

Now, you said your foster parents were
into this kind of stuff?

Not like this.

He was a drunk that did a reenactment
with a stolen mannequin. Probably

something he was just playing around
with. But like I said, it creeped me out

good. I mentioned it to my court
-appointed counselor, and they removed

the home.

What the hell is this place?

I didn't even know this was here.

I need to take this. I'll talk to Hugo.

Rainey, you get into Sherry's arrest
file? I did.

Kidnapping charges against Sherry Cheval
were dropped by the state after

testimony from the alleged victim.

Must have made a pretty compelling
argument.

Yeah, I'd say. According to the
testimony, Sherry was actually helping

escape an abusive parent, but the file
was sealed because he's a minor.

So she wasn't trafficking the kid. She
was protecting him.

Is she working alone?

Actually, she had help.

According to the court records, her
brother, Father Josiah Cheval, helped

the endangered teen inside of his church
while Sherry arranged for more

permanent lodging.

It's a big help, Rainey. Thank you.

Beach, just heard back about Sherry's
kidnapping arrest.

She was saving the kid, was working with
her brother who's a priest.

And what do you think that means?

It means she was here.

Probably to play the music. She was
helping Anton.

I wonder what the hell was about ready
to happen here.

So Anton came here from cows, didn't
realize what was about to happen.

Sherry saves them, and the two of them
run to her place for food and clothes.

They're both in hiding until they know
it's fit to come out. My guess is they

took him to her brother's church, just
like they did the other kid.

Detective, you should check out St. Paul
in Honville.

Sherry's brother's the priest there.

She plays their social events sometimes.

That's a half an hour from here. Thanks.
We'll take it from here.

Hey, we should go.

Take a look at this.

Have you ever seen anything like this
before?

It's a copy of an old, infinite
manuscript.

We usually see papers like this show up
from time to time in a bust or an

investigation.

What is it?

Practitioners usually use it as a sort
of instruction manual for rituals.

Once a ritual is completed, it's
supposed to grant certain powers.

Summoning?

Torture?

Sacrifice. And the terrifying part?

That it looks like there's somebody out
there that really believes this.

This here.

And that right there. Looks like a
wedding ceremony, right? Writing here is

French. Says, completion of a ritual
will bring immortality to the individual

who performs it.

Coulter.

What, do you see something?

That kid we pulled out the lake had a
tattoo with that symbol.

That? Mm -hmm.

This was Kevin Perkins after we pulled
him out of the lake.

Look.

Had a tattoo.

Same symbol on his calf.

These murders are connected.

Yeah.

This was the girl we found in the alley.
Now she presented like a random attack.

But look at that alley wall.

Looks like Fide.

But it's the same symbol again.

So whoever did this needed to complete
all three rituals.

Into the water.

Spilling of blood.

Wedding sacrifice.

Final act.

Incident. The sacrifice of the virgin
couple for immortality.

They already killed the bride.

That's why Anton was in a suit and tie.
He was the groom.

They need to complete the ceremony.

We're dealing with a psychopath.

Let's get to that church.

Hey. I just got the background on Father
Cheval.

And? He's not the priest at St. Paul.

He's at Sacred Heart, 20 miles up the
direction.

Did he get reassigned recently?

Nope. He's been at Sacred Heart of
Redemption for the last 12 years.

Okay.

Hugo gave us the wrong location on
purpose.

Let's try to get to Anton before we do.
Who are you?

Follow me.

Did I get it this time?

Is all the paint off now?

Hugo told me it was just pretend.

Said I could make a lot of money.

Can't believe I trusted him.

He tricked us both.

Told me it was a VIP party.

That's why I agreed to play the music.

But I thank God I was there to help you,
Anton.

The Lord does work in mysterious ways.

He poisoned her.

I saw him give her the pills.

He wanted her to die.

Try not to think about it.

I want to go home.

When can I call my dad? I know he's
worried. I'm sure he is.

And we're going to call as soon as we
can. But right now, Hugo is waiting for

you to try to make a mistake so he can
get to you.

I won't let that happen.

Not until I know for sure you'll be
safe.

He still wants to kill me to complete
the ritual.

We're not going to think about that
either.

Hey, we're going to trust Father Cheval.

brother is a good man.

He's helped a lot of people in trouble
before and he's going to get you home.

Sherry.

Anton.

Now come out wherever you are and we
will finish what we started.

Backup's on the way. I'm not waiting.

Got to find Anton before Hugo finds him.

I need to check what's going on. Stay
here and stay quiet.

Wait, if Hugo's out there, he'll kill
you too.

Be careful.

You too.

Chandaya!

Chandaya!

Chandaya!

Why?

He was a good man, Hugo.

You are going to burn in hell for this.

Well, probably.

But not today.

Take me to Anton or you're going to join
your brother.

I've seen evil like you before.

And I'll never tell you where Anton is.

Have it your way.

Drop your weapon!

I can't do that!

Stay where you are.

Don't move.

Or I will kill her.

I know what you did.

Using kids. You're using kids from the
other side of the river, from my town,

for your sick rituals.

Dumbing their bodies back where they
came from when you're done with them.

You can't begin to understand.

You're a predator and a killer.

Tell me what else I'm missing.

She's okay.

She's okay.

Give me your scarf. Stay low. Stay low.

Which way are you going? I got him.

I got him.

How bad is it?

Put pressure on this for me. It's okay.
You're going to be okay.

You're lying.

Don't worry about me.

Just save Anton.

Killed all those kids. Now priest for
what?

I found something that's going to give
me everything.

Found your printouts.

Infinity Handbook.

Nobody lives forever.

You don't know what you're talking
about.

It's not real, Hugo.

Kill those people for nothing.

You call eternal life nothing?

I'm going to finish what I started.

Like it happened.

I'm going to take a look.

I can't feel a pulse. All right.

Come on.

Okay.

Call ambulance.

911, what's your emergency?

I need medical assistance.

Sacred Heart of Redemption. Yes.

One injury to another.

I understand.

Ten minutes away.

It's okay.

It's okay.

You're safe.

Come back to me. Come on.

Come on.

Come back to me.

Dad.

I'm sorry, Dad. I should have told you
about working at the gym. Oh, no, no.

Listen to me.

You're back with me now. You're safe.

That's all that matters. You understand?

That's all that matters.

That's all that matters.

Jeannie, how is she? She's okay. Come
see for yourself.

Hey, baby, how you doing?

Tired. So are I.

I'm gonna be fine.

Thank you.

Thank you both for finding my son.

We didn't do it alone.

Anton's friend Sherry, she got him out
of there, kept him safe till we got

there.

Hey, uh, your friend Cal, he came by, he
brought your sex back.

It's in the truck.

Can I go get it?

Yeah.

Thank you for bringing my son back.

Sherry's brother, Father Chabal, he kept
him hidden, kept him safe until we got

there. Man gave his life.

I think we take that money, put it
towards a program at his church.

Something for the kids and the
community.

Sounds right.

Will do.

Thanks, Colton.

I wouldn't still be here without you.

That darkness you spoke of. You said you
wanted to light the way out.

Hugo's gone.

Those families finally got justice.

It's because of you.
