Previously on Persons Unknown.

Hey, look, you guys!

Hey!

Hey!

- Three gas masks.

- Leaves four of us dead.

- They want me to kill you.

- [ Grunts ]

I mean, why would I dream

that you're a killer?

That's Megan and my mother.

I need that mask!

Whoa!

[ All Shouting ]

[ Laughing ]

- [ Gasping, Coughing ]

- Get it off!

Maybe the way out

is the way through.

I've located

your primary suspect, pal.

Janet's ex-husband.

[ Bee Buzzing ]

[ Buzzing Continues ]

Whoa!

- What are you doing?

- The Italian honeybee.

You think we're in Italy?

I don't know where we are.

This species is found worldwide.

What's weird is that

this little guy should be

in his winter cluster,

not flying around

out here in the cold.

No.

Uh-uh.

- How do you know

so much about bees?

- The Bug Lady.

The what?

From the Oakland Zoo.

Every Friday I would take

a speaker to day care, and

the Bug Lady's very popular.

And free. So--

[ Grunts ]

- Sorry.

- [ Exhales ]

- Why'd you kill him?

- It was either him or me.

One sting and I'm dead.

Really.

- What are you doing?

- Oh, look at that.

A raccoon got fried

in the pain field,

and this buzzard

tried to eat him.

It got fried too.

[ Camera Whirring ]

[ A.D.S. Buzzes ]

Did you put that

chop suey there...

to bait the raccoon

into frying itself?

- Yeah.

- There's something

wrong with you.

Really? I mean--

[ Scoffs ]

it's not like

I murdered my wife

or something.

- Ass.

- What?

- You're an ass.

- Come on now.

Sociopathic ass!

This is the sign

for today.

Today.

This is Thursday.

Thursday.

"Today is Thursday."

That's good.

Thursday.

So we've been kidnapped

for a full two weeks.

- That's insane.

- This is the sign for insane.

[ Bill ] Oh, yeah?

Yeah, you're walking

pretty fast.

- You're getting

pretty scared, huh?

- What's going on, guys?

Oh, yeah.

You want to find out? Okay.

Well, hey,

I'm sorry, Charlie.

Okay?

I promise not to

talk about that thing...

that you don't

want me to talk about.

- I'm not afraid of you.

- Oh, yeah?

Let's do this.

[ Dinging ]

I trust everyone is finding

their accommodations

satisfactory.

No, they suck.

Like, why don't

we have television?

That's a good question.

Unfortunately,

we do not offer television.

We received a telegram.

A telegram?

You still use telegrams?

Of course you do.

One of our guests

will be checking out.

Who?

All it says is one of you

will be checking out soon.

You may wish to prepare.

Ring my bell if you

require further assistance.

[ Moira ]

You think they're serious?

Someone's getting released?

[ McNair ]

His exact words were that

one of us will be checking out.

As if we chose

to be in this hotel.

In the syndicate,

"checking out"

is code for a hit.

- You were never in the mob.

- I'm not allowed

to talk about it.

If you can't talk about it,

then shut up.

Look, if there's even

a small chance that one of us

will be released,

I think we should exchange

messages that we want to send

home to our family and friends.

[ Scoffs ]

I don't know any of you people.

I'm not doin' that.

Well, Blackham,

that's your choice. But I think

that I would like everyone...

to have my family phone number

in case they get released

and I don't.

This--

This could all be a trick.

So what if it is?

I don't have any secrets. Anyone

that wants to trade contact

information can come with me.

I'm in.

Me too.

- [ Charlie ]

I'll do it, just in case.

- No, forget it.

Joe? Come on.

Don't let me stop you.

Something about it feels wrong.

That's your choice.

[ Sirens Wailing In Distance ]

[ Men Chattering ]

[ Children Shouting ]

[ Cell Phone Ringing ]

Renbe.

[ Man, Irish Accent ] Isn't it

a little late to care about your

wife and daughter, Mr. Renbe?

Your sudden concern

is touching, but misplaced.

- Who the hell is this?

- Someone who cares

about your safety.

Someone who doesn't want

to see you come to harm.

What do you want?

To give you

a simple message.

Forget the story, forget Janet,

if you value your life.

[ Line Clicks ]

Taxi.

It's a taxi.

I saw one from my window.

[ Bill ] Oh, my God.

He just drove through

the pain barrier.

[ Charlie ]

Oh, thank God.

- [ Bill ] Whoa-- Whoa, whoa,

whoa, whoa. Stop. Stop.

- [ Driver Speaking Arabic ]

- Hey.

- How you doing?

Where are we?

Who is behind this?

I'm Victoria Fairchild.

My father sent you.

You're taking me home.

[ Arabic ]

Hey. Give the man

some room.

What?

[ Bill ]

This guy's a terrorist.

[ Arabic ]

...Janet Cooper.

- I'm Janet.

- [ Arabic ]

I'm sorry, sir.

I don't understand.

[ Stammers,

Continues In Arabic ]

Me? You're taking me?

Why me?

- I wouldn't get in there.

- [ Stammers,

Continues In Arabic ]

[ Arabic ]

...Janet.

I-I-I don't understand.

I lived in Baghdad for

almost a year. I picked up

a little Arabic. Um--

[ Arabic ]

[ Arabic ]

[ Voice Filtered ]

He's supposed to take

two people, two passengers.

- Forget it, man.

- So who's the other one?

Um--

[ Arabic ]

[ Arabic ]

...Cooper--

[ Arabic ]

You have to choose,

but do it quickly.

He's not waiting around.

Yes.

[ Tori ]

I'm supposed to go.

Joe?

I don't think

you should go.

What if it's like that van?

You ride out and you get zapped

right back where you started.

- Then I'll see you again

in 10 minutes.

- What if it's worse?

In Baghdad, the hajjis

pretend to be taxis

and kidnap you for ransom.

Or to cut off your head.

Well, we're not in Baghdad,

and we've already

been kidnapped.

So want to come with me? Fine.

Otherwise, I'll see you outside.

[ Driver Speaking Arabic ]

Don't do it, man.

So where you takin' us?

Away.

And that's all that matters.

Why, Daddy?

Why her and not me?

Janet?

Who the hell is she?

And that creepy guy-- Joe?

But not me?

I mean, how many different

times and ways do you want me

to say I'm sorry?

[ Chuckles ]

I found these wonderful

stockings in your town.

- They're vintage silk.

- They're lovely.

I know.

Aren't they?

The thing is, these

old-fashioned kind have to be

hooked to a garter belt,

and this one keeps falling down.

I just manicured my nails.

So--

So you want me...

to your garter?

Yes, please.

Can you do it a little higher?

Ah, yeah.

A little more.

I can't help you.

My father, the ambassador, uh--

he put me here, didn't he?

He put us all here,

and he's your boss, right?

I have no idea

who your father is.

Yeah. That's exactly

what he would

want you to say.

I need you to deliver

a message to him.

I want to leave,

just like Joe and Janet did.

I don't accept messages.

Just take it.

Tell him I'm sorry.

Tell him--

Tell him I'll be good.

Tell him I just want to go home.

Hello, Renbe.

I just want my files back.

And they're my files.

You know that.

I know they're my files.

Oh, he believed the videotape

He's pretty peeved too.

You might want to

Edick, wait.

What about the calls?

I just called you now.

No, the other calls.

That-- That-That voice.

The guy with the Irish accent.

I have no idea.

But if you're hearing voices,

I recommend a tinfoil hat.

All right.

Mmm.

Mmm. Mmm, mmm, mmm.

Whoa!

Good afternoon, Bill.

Here comes trouble.

- Should I run or--

- No.

- No. I'm sorry I hurt you.

- [ Chuckling ]

Let me make it up to you?

Really?

- What did you have in mind?

- I'm open to suggestion.

[ Chuckles ]

Yeah?

Why don't we talk about it

in my room?

[ Crying ]

[ Chuckling ]

- Are you okay?

- I'm going home.

Just like Joe and Janet did.

Okay.

Well, um,

don't let me keep ya.

[ Door Closes ]

I need to

ask you something.

What?

- How committed are you?

- Committed to what?

To getting home.

Because, you know,

I'll do whatever it takes.

And I'm not gonna

shy away from a fight.

I'll make any sacrifice.

So what are you willing to do?

Whatever it takes.

- Look at me and say it.

- [ Sighs ]

Whatever it takes.

Is cognac okay, Chuck?

It's fine.

And it's Charlie.

I want to ask you

a question.

All right.

What do cable TV,

bottled water...

and toll roads

all have in common?

We don't have

any of 'em in here?

[ Chuckling ]

No.

They're all things

that used to be free...

that people pay for.

And they're all multibillion

dollar industries now.

And?

And I'm gonna tell you

how we're gonna make

our billions, Chuck.

Private parks.

[ Chuckling ]

Nationwide chain.

I'm not interested.

You haven't even

heard me out.

I'm calling it "FreshAirrr."

Mmm.

It's one word

with three R's.

- We could trademark it.

- Like Cinnabon, but parks.

Exactly.

Your kids can play without

stinky homeless guys around.

And get this.

A special adults-only area...

with a mini Hooters

restaurant and bar.

This is a brand-new,

underserved demographic

that you're targeting.

Mm-hmm.

Anti-stinky homeless guys,

but strongly pro-Hooters.

[ Chuckling ]

But do you think you'd invest

in something like that?

I'm going to let you in

on a little business secret.

Never make major decisions

when you're being held captive.

This is gonna be like

getting into Microsoft

in 1987, Chuck.

Think about it.

Yeah. If Bill Gates didn't

know how a computer worked,

and he couldn't

remember people's names.

My name is Charlie.

Thanks for the drink.

[ Janet ]

Where the hell are we?

[ Groans ]

Ah, it's cold.

[ Tori ]

I would like to thank you

all...

for coming to this crazy place.

[ Laughing ]

Good evening, Tori.

Oh.

Welcome to the party, Sergeant.

[ Chuckles ]

- Do you want some champagne?

- No, thanks.

- Hmm.

- Pretty night.

[ Chuckles ]

Yeah, I guess.

[ Sniffles ]

I was thinking.

Do you know how my father

became an ambassador?

How?

If there's someone

that might be useful to him,

well, Daddy will

do anything for them.

Anything.

[ Sniffles, Chuckles ]

"Come to the Cape.

We'll party.

Tori will be there."

You?

Yeah.

Businessmen like it

when Tori is there.

That slut will do anything...

as long as you throw

some business to her father.

He used you?

My mother drowned.

Daddy was the only witness.

It's kinda strange, huh?

He swears it was an accident.

After Mommy died,

I started to entertain

his clients.

Tori.

[ Sniffles ]

It's okay.

I'm so sorry.

No, it's okay!

It's okay.

You can explain away

a drowned wife.

But if something were to happen

to your daughter after?

Well, that would be

very bad for Daddy.

Don't let him destroy you.

[ Scoffs ]

He destroyed me

a long time ago.

The human heart

can always heal.

I've seen children heal...

after losing

their entire family

in a war.

And you know what?

As-- As long

as you're alive,

you have another chance

to be happy.

[ Chuckles ]

- You think I can be happy?

- Do you?

[ Sobbing ]

[ Sighs ]

I want to go home.

I want to go home, Daddy.

Please.

I want to go home.

[ Shouting ]

I want to go home, Daddy!

[ Knocking On Door ]

Go away! Go away!

I'm in the bath.

Boo!

[ Chuckling ]

- You're not takin' a bath.

- My feet are.

Ah.

I'm warming up.

That is a great idea.

No, no, no.

Come on.

Oh.

Don't.

Get your filthy feet

out of my tub!

What?

I wanna talk about

our new business, FreshAirrr.

We are not in business,

you and I.

Ah.

You don't have any backers.

You don't have any experience.

You have zero experience.

You've never run a park.

Well, maybe so.

But I know what

you did to your wife.

And if you don't help me out,

so will everyone else.

[ Sighs ]

Ah, that's nice.

- You're a monster.

- No, I'm just a businessman.

Look, what I want, Chuck,

isn't difficult to come by,

you know? I have a list.

A list.

You made a list.

Yeah.

'Cause I'm proactive

and I'm a self-starter.

I don't need much.

Finance my start-up.

I want one of those

high-speed electrical cars,

a salary

and an office.

[ Door Closes ]

[ Janet ]

A cabin in the middle

of nowhere?

We should go in.

We're gonna freeze to death

out here.

How do we know it's safe?

Yes.

This place is, uh--

[ Chuckles ]

It's not bad.

Not bad?

Gourmet sardines.

Yeah?

Here's to tomorrow.

May we be free.

And here's to today.

We survived.

So what's the first thing

you're gonna do

when we get back?

Find out how

the Red Sox are doing.

- No, seriously.

- I'm serious.

Isn't there anyone

that you want to call?

Ask me again

when we're free.

I don't make plans.

[ Chuckles ]

Well, I'd like you to

come up to San Francisco.

Meet my daughter, Megan.

Would you want to do that?

Sure.

Yeah.

What's she like?

[ Sighs ]

Megan's five,

going on 40.

On the outside,

she's a pretty little girl.

And, secretly,

a little demon

who gets older kids

to do her dirty work for her.

[ Sniffs ]

A girl after my own heart.

I bet that's what

you were like as a boy.

The Boy Scout from hell.

Maybe I was.

Maybe I wasn't.

We quiet ones never tell.

[ Janet ]

The stars are

amazing out here.

At least we know we're still

in the Northern Hemisphere.

You can tell?

Yeah.

Just here,

that "M" shape there--

that's Cassiopeia.

And, uh--

Cassiopeia.

Mm-hmm.

And next to it is Draco.

Draco.

Yeah.

Neither of those are visible

in the Southern Hemisphere.

[ Breathing Deeply ]

[ Bees Buzzing ]

[ Whispers ]

Janet.

Janet.

Okay. Don't move.

It's bees.

Don't, don't, don't, don't.

Bees-- their winter cluster.

[ Blowing ]

The warmth woke 'em up.

As the sun comes up,

this whole room

will fill with bees.

Pick up your shoes.

Move slowly and quietly.

And if a bee lands on you,

let it.

Okay.

Okay.

[ Gulps ]

- My boots are filled.

- Okay.

Stand up.

Just shuffle your feet.

Walk calmly towards the door.

And no sudden movements.

Oh, man.

Okay.

Ready?

Yeah.

[ Buzzing Continues ]

So what were you doing

in Edick's office

at 3:00 in the morning?

Pursuing a story

for the paper.

About Janet Cooper,

a day-care woman

who disappeared.

I've got a very interesting

new photo of Janet Cooper.

Very interesting.

Here. Take a look.

- I wasn't in that park.

- It's a still from a video,

showing you watching

your ex-wife and your daughter.

You know about that?

Yeah.

Which way?

That way.

All right, let's go.

Come on. Come on.

[ Tires Screech ]

Wait. Wait.

Okay, now!

"Billionaire Heiress

in Satanic Scandal."

I hate it.

It's not a Register headline.

Does anyone under 50

even say "heiress"?

"Rich Bitch a Witch."

"Rich Bitch a Witch."

That, my friend, is a headline.

All right.

Print it and run

10,000 extra copies.

You can kiss

Mr. Renbe's ass later.

Bitches sell more papers

than heiresses.

You earned your pay today.

So what's up, buttercup?

A detective might

come around here

asking questions about me.

[ Clears Throat ]

I wanted to give you a heads-up.

Cool.

What happened?

It's, um--

It's about Janet Cooper.

What? Did you kill her

and eat her...

and have photos and recipes

for the readers--

No, Kat, damn it.

Janet Cooper was my wife.

- Wow.

- It was before you and me.

There's no you and me.

We're just friends

with benefits.

You're hardly a benefit.

There's no justification,

no excuse.

All I can do is apologize.

[ Sighs ]

Damn you.

- I need your help.

- [ Chuckles ]

Hey, Chuck.

I've got a great new idea

for FreshAirrr.

I told you.

If you made a proposal,

I would show it to my board.

No, Chuck.

We're partners, okay?

Unless you want the whole world

to know how you took such great

care of your sick wife...

by killin' her.

Come on.

Listen to my ideas, okay?

Okay.

Okay.

So, in every park,

there's a big-screen TV.

So you can

commune with nature...

while still not missing

the big game, right?

[ Shouting ]

Ow! Hey!

[ Grunting ]

[ Gasping ]

[ Coughing ]

Oh.

Maybe my wife

didn't have cancer.

Maybe I was just tired

of listening

to her stupid ideas.

Oh, my God.

[ Coughing ]

Now I don't want

to hear about outdoor TV...

or mini Hooters.

Or any of it.

And don't ever

call me Chuck.

Get out of here.

Go on.

Go now.

[ Heavy Breathing ]

No. No!

No. No.

I'm no--

[ Crying ]

I don't want to go back.

I'm not going back there.

What choice do we have?

Huh?

We'll die out there.

And we won't in there?

We'll have another chance.

All right?

There's always another chance.

I promise you.

I will get you out of there.

Okay?

I promise you.

Do it for Megan.

If we get out of here,

the first thing I'm gonna do

is see my little brother.

Oh, really?

Yeah.

[ Beeps ]

[ Elevator Dings ]

[ Exhales, Sniffs ]

Would you stay

with me tonight, Joe?

If you want.

Nothing more.

Just-- Just stay

with me because...

no one else knows

what I've been through,

and I really--

I don't want to be alone.

Okay.

[ Dings ]

Thank you, Daddy.

- Victoria Fairchild?

- That's me.

[ Chattering ]

Excuse me.

Yeah, I'd like to order

some food to go.

I'd-- I'd like to--

the number 47.

It's the okra--

okra special.

We closed now.

Uh, what is okra?

Okra.

It's a tapered green vegetable.

Oh, you show.

You show. This way.

[ Beeps ]

This is a level-five

breach of protocol.

- What is going on, Tommy?

- I'm trying to help you out,

so don't throw me attitude.

Then don't quote

the training manual to me.

[ Chuckles ]

I came here...

because I need to know

the plans for Janet.

- Even if I knew,

I couldn't tell ya.

- No, you give me something.

Anything!

Then I don't know

if I can do this anymore.

Are you threatening

withdrawal?

No. I didn't say that.

Are you threatening

withdrawal? Yes or no, Joe?

I didn't say that!

I said I want to know

what's going on with Janet.

Are you threatening

withdrawal?

Yes or no, Joe?

[ Exhales ]

Yes or no?

No.

Do you believe

in the process?

Well, then you have to

accept its results.
