- Previously on "Clarice"...
- Catherine?

How are you out there in the world?

We're different people.

Ma'am, I think we should go get her.

I'm afraid Catherine's gonna
go do something rash.

If she could make it past
the elevator, I'd be worried.

Angela Bird,
Tess Laughty, Sandra Bishop.

They were not random victims
of a serial killer.

Those women were whistleblowers.

Karolina Savich was
here on a student visa

sponsored by Global Health Horizons.

It's a charity run by a Tyson Conway.

He's her emergency contact.

I brought Karolina Savich over here.

We can always try to help people,

but we never really get the final say.

DNA says you were right.

Hudlin was the man you saw at Woodhaven

the night Marilyn Felker killed herself.

Pull your team off what went
down on the Anacostia River,

the three dead women.

Three dead whistleblowers.

Now another dead woman.

All with connections to Joe Hudlin.

What's Hudlin connect them to?

Well, we might know.
We dug into Tyson Conway.

His not-for-profit?
Guess who his major donor is.

Conway's dad. Founder and CEO
of Alastor Pharmaceuticals.

The makers of Reprisol.

The drug Karolina Savich took.

I found an Alastor
drug rep I can leverage.

She's got a green-card boyfriend
dodging a drug charge.

Really? You're leaning
on his immigration status?

Hey, working a C.I. is an art.
They don't teach it at Quantico.

It's all in finding their thumbscrews.

Starling. Work Conway.

See if he'll give us access
to his dad's company.

I'll keep working Hudlin...

or letting him think he's working me.

See if I can suss out
his connection to Karolina.

You two, map the case.

Everything we've learned
since we waded into the river.

Walk the path, see what
we missed the first time.

- Sir.
- Yep.

Seriously. Find some leverage on Conway.

There comes a point when staying silent

costs more than telling the truth.

Mm-hmm.

Bea? Bea!

Bea, are you gonna get the phone?!

Hi. This is a message for Catherine.

It's Ned.

It's been a long...
Sorry. It's been so long.

I was wondering how you are.

Anyway, maybe you want to grab
a cup of coffee or something.

Ned?

Hi.

It's me.

No, Ledja's already been
in the States a year.

She's been staffed at a hospital.

She wants her children to join her now.

Your failure to grant approval
is the issue.

No, you may not call me back.

I'm staying on this phone all week.

- Can you help me stay on this phone?
- All week. Got it.

Sorry. Um, INS.

Can I get you a coffee or...?

No, I'm fine. Thank you.

I just wanted to ask a few
more questions about Karolina.

S-Sure.

Did you know the baby Karolina
was carrying had birth defects?

That's too bad.

She must have been so afraid.

She was taking a drug her doctor
prescribed her called Reprisol.

- It's an anti...
- I know what Reprisol is.

My dad is Nils Hagen.
His company makes it.

Do you know a man named Joe Hudlin?

Yeah, he works for my father.

Well, I was hoping that
you could give us some insight

into your father's company...

and your father and maybe
what Hudlin does for him.

Look, you're overestimating
the amount of insight

I have into my father's business.

Oh?

We didn't meet till I was 14.

I was, as they say...

an oversight.

Is that what they call it?

Growing up, it was just me and my mom.

I didn't even know who my dad was.

Anytime I asked her, she would just say,

"Me, Tyson. I'm your dad. And your mom."

Why? Why did she keep it from you?

I don't know. I had what I needed.

We were dirt poor,
but I had what I needed.

Still, you wonder.

Was I...

Cast off?

Doing the work I do, I-I-I've learned

to steer clear of, uh,
self-pity, but, yeah.

Anyway, when I was, uh, 14,
my mother got sick.

A lung infection, then sepsis,
and then she died.

Suddenly.

I was the only family she had.

And then, suddenly, he appeared.

How? How did he find you?

He's a powerful man. He... He...

He kept looking for me
until he found me.

There he was. I had nobody, and then...

You had a father.

And you don't want to mess that up.

I'm sorry. You're easy to talk to.

Must make you good at your job.

But, honestly, I just
don't think I can help you.

I wish I could.

Agent Carter was refused
a routine transfer

when his dad was dying of cancer.

That's 15 acts of discrimination
against Black agents.

How many complaints does
this lawyer want to see

before he'll take our case?

And is it bad I've never heard of him?

George Castillo.
Used to be an agent at the Bu.

He's not big, but he's our guy.
You'll see.

We're meeting at 2:00.

- At 2:00?
- Mm.

I have to be on duty.

Oh, Evans...

someone left a brochure for
life insurance on his desk...

for accidental death.

- Clear threat of bodily harm.
- Mm-hmm.

Carlisle... his fellow agents

pasted a cut-out of a chimp
over his son's photo.

His 8-year-old.

I would've walked out right then.

If you ever have kids,
how long are you gonna let them

be kids before you give them
the truth about this country?

Carlisle needed his salary, his pension.

They knew it.

They don't want us to run.

They want us to suffer.

Mm-hmm.

This is enough, right? For the lawyer?

I feel invigorated
because we have so many

that I want to scream.

'Cause we have so many.

Get someone to cover you at 2:00.

I'll fake a hernia or something.

Can I watch? That sounds funny.

* The itsy bitsy spider
climbed up the water spout *

* Down came the rain
and washed the spider out *

- * Out came the sun and dried up all the rain *
- Catherine?

- * And the itsy bitsy spider *
- Catherine. Nugget.

Nugget, what're you doing out here?

Bea, I thought I could
leave the house to meet Ned.

I thought I'd make it.

Angela Bird, Tess Laughty,

and Sandra Bishop were interviewed

by Rebecca Clark-Sherman...

and then murdered by a hired killer.

Karl Wellig, who was
then offed in our own house

by two more posing
as a lawyer and a fake cop.

Is there any movement
on ID'ing these guys?

Off a fake name and two sketches? No.

We've run them past every agency
in the area, and nothing.

Okay, so, they led us
to the lead physician

of the victims' clinical trials,
Marilyn Felker.

Ah. Who kills herself
because she's being framed

for her involvement with
the whistleblowers' deaths.

Most likely by...

Joe Hudlin.

Ah. With Hudlin and Meriwether.

Alastor Pharmaceuticals' fixer-lawyer.

Joe Hudlin.

Hmm.

Oh, shoot. I have to cancel something.

Is it your, uh, medical examiner?

You see, I never should have told you.

I knew it.

Nope. I mean, I'm just saying.
Two years?

Where I come from, that is married.

Mm.

- I'm sorry. I didn't mean to...
- It's fine.

- That...
- It's fine.

Okay.

I'm sorry. I... Look.
I'll talk about it.

I just...

I just don't want to hear about it.

Yeah. Okay.

Ah, you must be doing all right,

from the look of that Mercedes
you pulled up in.

Or is that pharma money?

It's called a stocking bonus.

Alastor hired me to encourage doctors

to prescribe their drugs.

We get triple our commission
if a clinic exceeds their quota.

Tell me what that comes out to.

Whoa! You get that bonus...

on every drug?

No, no. Just one.

Reprisol.

It's in stage 4 trials,
so they can't advertise yet,

but we can get doctors to prescribe it.

The stuff does everything...

muscle relaxant, anti-anxiety,

anti-migraine, anti-inflammatory.

It sells itself.

I'm making bank.

Hmm.

I'm gonna need some samples of Reprisol.

Who's this woman who signs your check?

Julia Lawson? How do I contact her?

Look. Maybe this is a bad idea.

No, no, no. It's not.

This is my career, you know?

I shouldn't mess with it.

I think I'm done.

No, Naomi. You're not done.

Unless you want your boyfriend
on the next boat

back to Australia, you're done
when I say you're done.

I know. It's no fun for me, either.

I thought... I could do it.

You'll get there, Nugget.

You've already taken the first step.

That's huge.

- Ned called.
- Did he, now?

I can call him back.

- Maybe we can try again.
- Tonight.

Maybe just let Ned be.

We had been talking
about marriage when...

He abandoned you.

You said you'd help me.

Will you take me? Please?

Let's talk to your mum.

Please. Don't tell Mom.

She'll... She'll ruin it.

Somehow, hearing his voice,

it felt like... normal again.

It felt like...

before.

Please.

I just want to feel normal again.

You led the Hispanic agents
discrimination complaint

when you were at the Bureau.

- That was a massive win.
- It was.

What you didn't hear

is that after the suit, the harassment,

the situation became unbearable.

Within a year, most of us left.

The Bureau that we loved...
that we fought for...

it wasn't there anymore.

Not for us.

- So you regret it?
- Yes.

I wanted to retire there.
But would I do it again? Yes.

'Cause it was the right fight.

Now, what's your stake?

I lost a promotion
to a clueless, feckless

hack of a white man.

The hell you say?

You know the Cody Phelps case?

- Sure. The serial guy.
- Mm-hmm.

I thought Clarice Starling did the...

With Ardelia.

Without Ardelia,
it'd still be a cold case.

- Is that true?
- Well, yes.

Starling and I investigated.
We took him down together.

He was in my cuffs.
My DNA research found the guy.

Then I got put back on cold-case duty.

My work secured the funding
to continue the DNA research,

but they put a white male
colleague in charge of me,

and I have to train him,
because he knows... nothing.

I know it's tricky to quantify.

No, actually. That's the case.

The feckless hack is the case?

No, no, no. Starling is.

She's the FBI's poster girl.
She's tabloid red meat.

If she's in the story,
people will pick up the paper.

By comparing you two, we hit
the FBI where people see them.

Okay.

If you'll step up...
if you make Clarice Starling

your lead complaint...
I'll take your case.

And I'll win it.

Where's the boss?

Meeting with Hudlin.

I just saw my drug rep,
who bought a Benz

with the ridiculous bonuses
she gets from pushing Reprisol.

Hmm. Well, if it's the same drug
from the original trial,

they would have known
it caused birth defects.

Her paycheck has the name of someone

from accounting and sales
and distribution...

Julia Lawson.

Follow the money. Go on. Go detect.

Julia Lawson. Go find her. Go.

Mandy will receive this today.

You filed for an ex parte order?

Well, even if the judge doesn't
grant it, it's gonna help us.

Mandy is not an
"imminent danger" to our kids.

She would never hurt them.

Hey, I promised I would get you custody.

This is gonna kill her.

She's already dead.

It helps if you think of it like that.

The woman you love is gone,

and she's been replaced
by a ruthless, hateful bitch

who wants to take your children.

Can you see that?

I'm constantly surprised
at what I can do lately. Hmm.

You know anything about this woman?

Karolina Savich.

I thought we had an understanding, Paul.

This crossed my desk,

and your name was
in connection with her.

Now, I'm trying to be
a team player here, but...

that came to me
from an Assistant U.S. Attorney.

I do pro bono immigration work
for a non-profit.

That's why my name was there.

Why is the DOJ looking at her?
How did she die?

I was gonna ask you that.

Maybe you should just do
what's asked of you.

Make it go away.

I know. Look. It's... It's not forever.

What's in there?

Paul, our case depends
on you taking the high road.

You gonna tell on me?

16-year-old single malt.

Excuse me? Julia Lawson?

We're with the FBI.
Can we talk to you a second?

Sorry to bother you at home.
We tried to call at work, but...

I had a doctor's appointment.
I'm sorry. What's this about?

Is there some place we could talk?

Um, right here's good.

You're a senior accountant
at Alastor Pharmaceuticals?

That's right.

We wondered if you could
answer some questions

about the drug Reprisol.

That's proprietary information.
I-I can't discuss it.

Who's this?

They're from the FBI.

They're asking questions about work.

This is, um...
This is my roommate, Erin.

She doesn't have to speak with you.

Erin's right, Julia, you don't.

But if you change your mind...

This is her. It's Clarice Starling.

Can you please leave? Now.
Do we need to call a lawyer?

No, no, no. No. It's okay.

Thank you for your time.

What was that about?

Excuse me?

Three women are dead.

They were in a clinical trial
for Reprisol.

All three had children
with birth defects,

and when they tried to speak up,
they were murdered.

Look at Reprisol, and if you can help

get justice for these women,
then, please... call me.

Hudlin said he was in
the middle of a big acquisition.

There were files with
the Whitfield & Webb logo.

Is Alastor Pharmaceuticals
in the middle of a buyout?

Suddenly, a lot of things
start to make sense.

Like why they'd make an old,
failed clinical trial

just disappear.

And why Tyson Conway's unwilling to talk

about his father's company.

Get back to that sales rep.

Starling, get this accountant
on our payroll.

Um, sir, I'm not sure
how easy that will be.

- She had some resistance...
- Overcome it.

Sir.

Murray, hang on.

Hudlin needed me under his thumb.

I wanted to get him comfortable,
so to get him talking,

I let him knock me off the wagon.

Yeah.

Can't tell my sponsor why,
obviously, so I'm telling you.

Okay?

Whatever you're about to say
is a load of crap.

You're a good agent. You could
find another way to crack him.

I am going to suggest
that you saw a side door

because you wanted a drink.

And even if that's not true,

well, you'd better damn well
act like it is.

So? What's the verdict, Mapp?

Are you gonna call George? Tell him yes?

I can't throw her under the bus.

It's not about Clarice.

And I've got news for you...

you're pulling her under the bus,

because you're already under it.

You and a hundred other agents...

She didn't sign up for this.

Neither did you.

Neither did I.

We all signed up for the same FBI.

We deserve our victories.
T-This is our shot.

You are our shot.

And if your friend doesn't understand,

I'm not sure what
you're trying to protect.

So, Joe Hudlin
connects us to Karolina Savich.

Yeah, who had Reprisol in her system

and was carrying a baby
with birth defects,

just like our River Murders.

So... is she a noisy eater?
What's the problem?

You pivot from murder to my love life.

Healthy.

And it's not her. Mnh.

She's great. She's a good person.

Bet a coroner makes for some
pretty spicy dinner conversation.

Yeah, we met when she first moved here.

Two years ago.

She'd been a paramedic
in Killeen, Texas.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

She worked the Luby's Cafeteria
shooting.

- 25 dead.
- 27 injured.

She still wakes up crying sometimes.

All those people. The senselessness.

"How could someone be so cold?"
she says.

"How can he be so destructive?"

You've never told her
you were a sniper in the Army.

"Were"?

Krendler still calls me
his "Sniper-guy."

Clarke calls me "Killer."

But she only knows a part of you.

Yeah, well, she's not
gonna like the other part.

Does anyone know all of you?

I think you might just be
overreacting a little bit.

I'm just afraid that you're
gonna start talking to the FBI

and throw away your job.

I didn't say that! I...

I just said that the stuff
I found was weird.

But why...

H-How does it concern you?

It concerns me because they
told us that women died, Erin.

Am I supposed to... unhear that?

I'm supposed to un-find what I found?

I'm sick.

And uninsurable.

And we have insurance,
and we have a house,

and those things
are dependent on your job.

If we lose it all...

Now I sound like a selfish bitch

who doesn't care
about anyone but herself.

No. Honey.

No.

I know.

People like us don't get those things.

Look at our friends.

I haven't decided that I'll do it yet.

Yes, you have.

Just promise me this.

Tell Starling what she did.

- N...
- Tell her.

Make sure she knows.

You want to stand up for other people?

Start by standing up for yourself.

Yeah.

I'm okay. Thank you.

Cat.

Ned.

Catherine.

You're not going home?

Finishing some stuff.

Too many bars between here and there?

You don't have to sit
and watch me like a Spaniel.

Woof.

Sir?

Hey, it's a party.
How'd it go with the accountant?

You lean on her? You make her your C.I.?

I'm not gonna lean on her.

Sir, I haven't been back yet...

Speak of the devil.

It's the lovely Naomi. "911."

You good?

I'm good.

Starling. I need you to go
back to the accountant.

Find out if there's anything
to this buyout thing.

She seems to have a problem with me.

Specifically.

- Why?
- I have no idea.

Excuse me. Mr. Krendler?

Ms. Starling, you have
a visitor. Julia Lawson?

What made you change your mind?

Um, I... I haven't,
but I brought you this.

Would you like a seat?

- Uh, no.
- Okay.

Can you tell me what this is?

There is a discrepancy
in how we paid the CRO.

It's... It's all in here.

The FBI has accountants, right?

I mean, i-isn't that how you got Capone?

Was there something else?

Yes.

- Is it about the murder?
- No.

- The NDAs they make us sign, th...
- They'll ruin me.

I-I can't so much as confirm...

It's okay. It's... It's okay.
You haven't.

I brought it up.

So, what was it?
The thing you have to say?

Is it about me?

It's about...

...Buffalo Bill.

It's just so nice to see you, Cat.

I just, uh...

You look fantastic.

I've lost a lot of weight.

Sure, but that's not it.
You've always been beautiful.

Always.

But you look...

I'm just happy to see
that you're healthy, is all.

I am so sorry, Cat.

What do you mean?

I wasn't prepared.

I-I-I didn't known anyone that
went through anything like that.

I... I-I didn't know how
to be there f-for you.

Yeah, it's, uh...

It's not a regular thing.

- But it's okay.
- No, it's not.

If I could just go back, I-I would be...

It's fine.

Really. It's fine.

No, I would have been better for you.

I-I would have stayed with you.

Well, you're here now. It's okay.

Moving on, right?

Right.

So, what's next for you?

Going back to school
was always the plan.

I've been looking at Parsons.

You and I always talked about RISD.

You are so talented.

Any place would be lucky to have you.

Shut up.

I'm really happy you called.

I've been thinking about you.

Yeah.

Yeah. Me, too, obviously.

I just wanted to make sure
that you were...

And thank you...

for wearing my favorite sweater.

What's wrong?

Cat...

I, um...

I think I might have given you
the wrong impression here.

What do you mean?

Whatever it is you have
to say to me, it'll be okay.

Um...

That case...

and, um, all the press
that came with it...

the... your TV interview,
the magazine covers...

it created a story.

Um, a story that did
a lot of damage for me.

Buffalo Bill was clearly

a m... a monster, a-a-a killer,

and I don't know what their story was,

but they got labeled transsexual.

And whether it's true or not,
that word was then

in every headline,

every story,

every gruesome tabloid photo

right next to "murderer," "maniac."

"Psycho skins women,

driven mad by transsexual desire."

That was the front page
of the Baltimore Herald.

Overnight, suddenly, the biggest
story on everyone's minds

was that transsexuals were monsters.

And this affected you personally?

Clarice...

I'm transsexual.

And...

I have to keep that part
of myself hidden

because I could lose my job.

My life.

I have to hide who I am

because of stories like Buffalo Bill.

And at the center of all of those was...

you.

You made my life harder.

I didn't write those articles.
I didn't say those things.

No, but the press were listening to you.

And people like me don't have a voice.

You had the power to say something,

and... you never did.

So I needed to say something now.

You know, being silent, it's...

it's like purgatory.

You're never really living
one truth or the other.

I, um...

just needed you to know, you know?

What your silence can do.

I have to get these back tonight,

so you need to make copies.

We met in Chemistry.

She was, um...

Anyway, we're kind of
seeing each other now.

Right. Okay.

But I-I told her that I couldn't
commit to anything until I...

Until you cut me loose.

Until I knew you were okay.

Until you were absolved.

- No.
- I came here.

I haven't left the house in a year.

I left for you.
So you could ask forgiveness?

Cat.

You weren't there when I needed you.

But it's okay.
I never expected you to be.

I knew it very early.

The way you held my hand so gentle.

Almost... weak.

Like how you touched me in bed.

I thought, "This is someone
I'll have to carry."

I accepted it.

How you pouted when you thought
I didn't like your play.

Or the blizzard.
When we camped in Oakridge?

When I gave you my coat?

You said you were warm enough.

Yes. That is what I said.

And now you're here

before you attach yourself
to someone else

hoping I'll disprove
what you already know.

What she'll find out.

This is not a man you can count on.

This is not a man.

I'd like you to go.

- I just...
- I would like you to go!

You're okay, sweetheart.

I'm here. Bea told me where to find you.

You're okay.

You're okay, sweetheart.

Let's go home, okay? We'll go home.

Yes, please.

Wait. Wait.

Hey!

Naomi? Naomi!

Damn it!

Might have been an overdose.

Tell me you think for one minute
she paged you "911"

and then just decided to take
a lethal amount of Reprisol.

Hudlin made the River Murders
look like a serial killer.

He made Wellig look like a stroke.

Rebecca Clark-Sherman
was gonna be a suicide.

It has all been misdirection.

She's right. This feels like a message.

Hudlin's way of telling me
he knows we're investigating

without confessing to a murder.

He's a fixer. We need inside Alastor.

- Your accountant...
- She helped us out, but now she's done.

We're not putting Julia Lawson
in the line of fire.

Well, I got some leverage on our Julia.

Her background check only goes back

a little over five years
then disappears.

Our accountant is a transves...

Stop. Stop it right there.

You do not know what you're
talking about, and I am not...

You're not what?! Gonna do your job?!

- I am not gonna blackmail someone!
- Hey!

And don't tell me you are
pushing this out of anything

other than guilt that you
just got a woman killed.

You want Hudlin?!

- She was your responsibility!
- Enough. Murray. Enough!

Yes, sir.

Find anything new?

I think you dropped the ball.

Look, Hudlin led us to Karolina,

who was sponsored here
in the States by Tyson Conway,

whose dad owns Alastor Pharmaceuticals.

Tyson is our way to Nils,
and you let up.

I think you need to push him.
Lean on him, like Clarke said.

Find out what's important to him
and use it.

- She's known you almost two years.
- Oh, my God.

You seriously think
she won't see the difference

between a soldier and a mass killer?

There are days I don't. That was a joke.

Mostly.

You're in purgatory.
Keeping your mouth shut.

What?

You need her to accept you,

but she never can until
you tell her who that is.

Tell her.

How do I do that?

You're a pretty smart guy.

I'll go back to Conway.

Back here!

Agent Starling. Hello.

- I hope it's not a bad time.
- No.

Do you want to come in?

I can't. I can't. I just...
I just wanted to ask y...

Ahh. Uh...

I'm here to, um...

lean on you.

I'm here to use some leverage...

use something important to you...

to try and coerce you
into helping us, but...

- That sounds...
- Yeah.

I don't want to do that, because...

I know what's important to you,

and I think we both want the same thing.

We want to know who your father is.

I think you spent years
coloring in the lines

of what little you knew about him...

wondering what he's like.

What he'd think of who you are,
of every decision you ever made.

And now you get to know.

And what's more, he approves.

I lost my dad when I was little,

so I can imagine how that must feel.

- I'm sorry.
- Thank you.

But I need your help.
And I think you need mine.

I think your father is associated

with some very, very bad people.

Everyone I've met on this trail
who's crossed with him

has paid a price...
some with their lives...

and I just want to make sure
that you don't get hurt.

You know where to find me.

Julia.

Mr. Hudlin.

Hi.

Um, is there something you need?

No. I just wanted to say I took a look

at the due-diligence prep
and the audit stuff.

Terrific. Very tight.

Ah. Uh, well... thank you.

Uh, was there something else you...

You sure are here late.

Yep, yes. Uh, lots to go through.

For the merger.

Anyway, I just wanted to say

you're doing great work, Gordon.

I-I-I'm sorry. Um...

Uh, what... what did you say?

I said, "Great work, Julia."

See you soon.

Oh, God.

What's this?

Sit down. Please.

What are we drinking to?

Friendship.

I'm going to file a racial
discrimination complaint

against the FBI... with the EEOC.

Okay.

You are included in my complaint.

By name.

Is it about the Phelps case?

Yes.

Please say something.

I'm thinking.

Today, I keep finding out I hurt people

without knowing I did it.

You never hurt me. The Bureau did.

But using your example and your fame

and your name will help the suit.

And the Coalition.

And a lot of people
who are counting on me.

It's true.

We should be rising on the same tide.

I'm sorry.

Don't apologize to me.
I'm about to ruin your life.

Oh.

Hello?

I went outside today.

Uh, Catherine.

That's good.

To a coffee shop.

It wasn't much. I just...

wanted you to know that.

That's good. That's good.

I'm happy for you.
I know that wasn't easy.

I just had to take action, right?

Not just keep hiding.

You can't just keep hiding from this.

From what Bill did to us.

Right?

I just wanted to say thanks.

You kind of... inspired me.

That's good.

Catherine, is everything all right?

Everything's fine. Good night, Clarice.
