All language subtitles for Criminal Minds Beyond Borders. S01E01. The Harmful One

Over 68 million Americans

leave the safety of
our borders every year.

If danger strikes,

the FBI's International Response Team

is called into action.

How did we end up volunteering on this farm?

We should've just gone backpacking.

We signed up for 3 more weeks.

That's 3 too many.

We've only got another
month before school starts.

I just don't wanna waste any more time.

You weren't like this before he got here.

Don't do that!

Don't make this about Jeff.

Why not? You did.

You cannot honestly say that this hellhole

is better than the last one we were on.

Shh!
He can hear you.

Who, Benz?

He doesn't know what I'm saying.

That's another problem.

I mean, not a single word of English?

There are only five volunteers here.

I feel bad for him.

He watched me shower last night.

Ugh.
You give him a good show?

I'm serious.
It isn't funny.

If you were so freaked out about it,

why didn't you tell me?

You talking about perv the farmer?

Really?
You told him?

I vote that we get outta here.

Bangkok's only an hour drive away.

We can hitch it, we'll walk it.
Won't be that bad.

I told my mom we were staying here

and I don't wanna freak
her out by leaving early.

I already emailed my parents about it.

They wired me money this morning, $1,500,

at a Western Union in Bangkok.

We'll still be in Thailand the whole time,

but we won't have to stay here.
Okay?

Phayu...

Phayu means “storm”.

Remember, it's typhoon season?

What if one's coming?

It is.
And places like this get flooded.

It's a couple days away, but,
I'm not gonna stick around.

You shouldn't, either.

Sold.

She hates me.

No.

Maybe a little.

Don't worry.

Don't be mad.

I know that it was just gonna be us,

but it's still gonna be fun.
That's not the point.

Okay.
Then?

How do you know he's
taking us to Bangkok?

He's lived all over
Thailand for a year already.

He knows where he's going.

Girls get snatched
overseas because they're

stupid enough to follow some guy.

Or stay on some farm with a peeping tom?

Sorry, but I like our chances out here.

Jeff?

Wh-where are you?

Where'd you go?

Told you he's a jerk.

Jeff, come on.
This isn't cool.

He's just being an ass.
Right?

This isn't funny!
Jeff!

FBI!
Drop your weapon!

Last warning!
Drop it now!

You shouldn't have done that.

How about “you're welcome”?

Guy raised his gun.

We could've talked him down.

Jack, last time I checked,

words don't make you bulletproof.

It was a clean shot.
You wanna review it?

Yeah.

Let's forget reviewing it.

How about we go for coffee?

Sure.

Oh, let me guess.
Rain check?

Where you headed?

Thailand.

Most exotic place I've
seen lately is Cleveland.

Have some Pad Thai for me.

Well, you're welcome to
join us overseas anytime.

We'd love to have you.

Thanks, but I prefer
the comforts of home.

Though, I wouldn't mind
swapping jets with you,

every once in a while.

Not a chance.

Double-time it.

Come on, boys.
Come on.

What took you so long?

Says the girl who had a huge head start.
Huh?

I think that's a new record for both of us.

It's Jack.
I think we got a case.

Yeah, Thailand.

What, are you telepathic now?

Heart rate, phone calls, and texts.

You should really keep up.

Monty's really rubbing off on you.

Hey, just living in 2015.

Oh, look at that.

Finally updated your little flip phone.

It's highly functional.

Race you back.

Ladies first.

Beat ya.

No head start, this time.

Yeah.

Dang!

Does that thing have its own zip code?

Listen, you're not lugging
around car seats and strollers.

Well, wait till they start playing sports.

You'll have a whole basketball team

squeezed in there.

With murders and accidental
deaths at a record high,

Thailand is quickly becoming one

of the deadliest destinations for tourists.

I remember those British backpackers

who were murdered there last summer.

Guess that didn't stop
our victims from visiting.

What do we got, Jack?

American college freshmen Laura Johnson

and Sarah Harris went off the grid 2 days ago

and the latest messages

indicated they were in hostile surroundings.

We'll be taking off in 3 minutes.

Good morning, handsome.

Hello, lovely.

We got the basics.
Fill us in, Monty.

Okay. Laura and Sarah's parents
are on their way in from Ohio.

They confirmed the girls signed up

for a volunteer farming organization

and left the U.S. right after graduation.

Volunteering on farms is like

the millennials' version of
backpacking across Europe.

These programs have been
around since the 1970s.

Yeah, but they haven't really
caught up with the times.

There's no background checks
for hosts or volunteers.

Not exactly the safest choice.

Their cell phones
stopped transmitting signals

- 48 hours ago.
- What time?

- Midnight.
- Where?

A mile from the farm,
heading north toward Bangkok.

I sent coordinates.

That's the middle of nowhere.

And the girls are adventurous types,

but not adverse-risk takers.

Leaving the farm at midnight

doesn't sound like something they'd do.

Unless they were talked into leaving.

Monty, who's the guy
who met them in Thailand?

Jeff Little.

No cell phone, no credit cards.

According to the girls' photos,
they met at the latest farm.

Laura sent a selfie of her and Jeff,

but Sarah wasn't in the photo

and she didn't say anything
to her mom about it.

Triangle?

Never been a fan of a guy
who comes between friends.

Anything we should be worried about?

Yeah.
He was charged with statutory rape

and kicked out of Tulane last year.

He was 19.

Way to bury the lead, Monty.

I'm not sure how serious it was.

The Romeo and Juliet law has
downgraded his conviction

from a felony to a misdemeanor.

He's been livin' all over
Thailand ever since.

With no traceable funds.

Two girls out of their comfort zone,

a guy with no means of income.

And the lure of money.

Laura's mom wired $1,500.

When it wasn't picked up in 2 days,

she called the state department.

Even on foot, from where they were,

it wouldn't take 'em
2 days to walk to Bangkok.

Something bad happened along the way.

What do the Royal Thai Police say?

Without a body, there is no crime.

The director personally
tasked us to investigate

and we're not gonna wait for a body.

Good.

Local police should know that
we're all on the same side.

It's not their job to worry
about missing Americans.

It's ours.

I'm so sorry.
This is all my fault.

You got to stop saying that.

But it is.

Benz never watched me shower.

Jeff told me to tell you that.

He knew it was the only thing

that would make you leave.

So do you think Jeff and Benz

are working on this together?

Probably.
I don't know.

Hey.

Have you eaten yet?

It's been 2 days.

I can't.

We need our strength to get out of here.

I don't get it.

Why is he feeding us,
if he's just gonna kill us?

Maybe he won't.

Then what is he gonna do?

Ah, get off of me.

Laura?
What are you doing?

Ahh! Aah!
What is he doing?!

What are you doing to her?!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

A Thai proverb reminds us

“what's done in the
dark soon comes to light.”

Clara, glad you're still taking my calls.

Oh.
It's been a while.

So let me guess,
you have not learned Thai

in all your spare time and
you want me to translate.

If all I needed was a translator,

I could Google it.

You've always been way more than that.

Hey, Clara.
How you been?

- Good. Yeah, how's Christy?
- Oh, she's amazing.

- How many kids, now?
- Four.

- That's crazy.
- And you?

- How many new languages?
- Zintatu.

- Three, wow. Countries?
- I've lost count.

- My turn. My turn.
- Hi, Mae.

Oh, Mae.

I don't think I've seen you out of scrubs.

How do you like life in the sunshine?

Well, it beats the freezer.

It turns out, staring at dead bodies

kind of took its toll.
So what are the chances

you're in Thailand right now?

Well, after a few months in Africa,

I decided to roam Southeast Asia.

I am studying beliefs about fate.

And?

Everything happens for a reason.

You want the good news or the bad?

- Good.
- Royal Thai police

are setting us up with their office.

For bad, there's a typhoon off the coast.

Yeah,
they're evacuating low-lying provinces.

The farm could be underwater in 36 hours,

so I wanna get there before
any evidence is washed away.

- Let's head to the station.
- All right.

Listen, this police force is a boys' club,

so don't take it personally.

I know they won't shake our hands.

Well, that's a cultural norm
between men and women here.

I'm talking about professional courtesies.

We're not the two ladies
who will change their minds?

- After 100 years?
- Hmm.

Girl can dream.

Hey, listen.
A friend dropped me off.

Can I get a ride?

You know any shortcuts?

A few.

When are you gonna let me drive?

Not today.

So, Laura and Sarah.

They went off the radar for 2.5 days

with a guy they just met, Jeff little.

It doesn't look like he's
made the best life choices

and it doesn't bode well

that he's attached himself to these girls.

He played favorites,
leaving Sarah odd man out.

You think he split them up for a reason.

I'm thinking he may
have been grooming Laura

as an easy target.

Trafficking.
Of course.

He could be a spotter.

I mean,
the girls would trust another American,

when they're on their own for the first time.

Larger rings are usually centered

in the cities, like Bangkok,

and we know they were on their way there.

Young, healthy, American?

They'd get top dollar.

Why do humans always find new ways

of hurting one another?

I was just like these girls.

I didn't know you volunteered on a farm.

Yeah.
Six in total, all over the U.S.,

when I was 18.

It was a different time back then.

Yeah, but it's the same war, even today.

You want your kids to
have that independence,

but it's so hard to let 'em go.

Yeah. I think my parents knew

I needed to see the world, you know?

Do you miss it?

What, jet lag?

Takeout?

Dead plants at home?

No, my driving.

I haven't done that for a while.

So, apart from your excellent driving,

do I miss what, exactly?

Saving lives.

Yeah.
Yeah, of course.

Yeah, we were pretty good at that.

What's that smell?

Laura?

Yeah.

Do you think this is how it'll end?

Wait.
Please, wait.

Laura.

Where...?

Where are you taking us?

What are you doing?
Just let us go.

We won't tell anyone.
Please!

Ahh!

They're not gonna welcome us.

Well, as far as they're concerned,

Laura and Sarah aren't in danger

and, if they are, it's their own doing.

Here we go.

Buhni Taksin.
Welcome.

Jack Garrett.
Good to meet you.

This is my team, Agent Simmons, Jarvis.

Cultural expert Clara Seger

will be consulting with us.

We'd like the map of the province,
so we can check

the routes they may have taken

in and out of the farm.

I don't speak Thai.

She does.

Of course.
One moment.

The Royal Thai Police Force
is 250,000 strong,

but only 70 officers are female

and they were only sworn in 2 years ago.

Against the law to smile?

- Here you go.
- Oh, thanks.

We need a search team at the farm.

How many officers are joining us?

I'm the only one assigned to you.

Others are prepping for the
storm evacuation protocols.

Okay, well,
we need to get out to the farm right away.

We need to talk to the owner.

He's waiting for us.

We are now receiving footage

of the typhoon making landfall in Cambodia.

It's moved north and is due
to hit Thailand in 24 hours.

- Oh. Oh, it's you.
- Mary. Frank.

Oh, I can't believe this is happening.

- Tell me they're okay.
- My team is there now.

We're trying to put some pieces together.

Please.

We should never have let them go

to Thailand on their own.

Laura sent some pictures
of a guy named Jeff little,

said he was volunteering
at different farms, too.

It seems like they were friends.
Have you reached out to him?

I read about Jeff online.

He raped a girl in college.

- He did what?
- Oh, my god.

Our girls weren't in trouble,
until they met him.

Are those his parents?

Excuse me.

Mr. and Mrs. Little, come with me.

We toured the main property.

- Already?
- We got here 10 minutes ago.

I should get a motorbike like that.

Have you met Benz yet?

Yeah.
He let us look around.

None of his doors have locks.

Laura and Sarah stayed
in a crowded bunkroom

with two other girls from England,

who said that they packed
up their stuff and left.

Guys' room is even worse.

Besides this road in here,

there's only two other paths that lead out.

So we should be looking for footprints,
tire tracks,

anything that helps us
figure out what went wrong

- and where.
- Simmons, you two get started.

- Got it.
- I will join you.

All right.
Let's do it.

Now, part of my job is to
trace any digital footprint,

but I can't find anything on Jeff.

When was the last time you talked to him?

Almost 3 months ago.

He was volunteering at farms

through a few different programs.

At least I knew he was getting food

and a safe place to sleep.

Have you sent him any money?

He wouldn't accept it, if we did.

That whole thing at Tulane?

Drove a wedge between us, as a family.

He didn't feel supported, so he left.

I gave him my credit card, though,
for emergencies.

But he's never used it.

He's overwhelmed.

His wife, she's sick.

Ask him if there was
anything out of the ordinary

with the girls.
Were they arguing?

He says the boy spent more
time with Laura than Sarah,

so Sarah seemed lonely, and Sarah tried

to speak in Thai,
which Benz says was thoughtful.

Tell him I appreciate the information.

What do you think?

Well, he's exhausted, but willing to talk.

He seems embarrassed of the
conditions he provides here,

and he's not surprised that they left.

They're not the first kids to go.

And I spotted a Buddha,

which means he believes in karma.

What do you think?

Agreed.
He was making eye contact with you

and didn't seem like he was acting suspicious

or hiding anything.

Yeah.
So, that leaves Jeff.

He's the one thing that still sticks out.

A stranger who forced himself

between two girls.

It's Monty.

Russell Montgomery,

as I live and breathe.

Is that you, Clara?
How you been?

Better, now.

Let me put you on speaker.

Our challenge here is to find something

before the wind and the rain wash it away.

Now, I got no tire tracks,

but the footprints are the freshest here.

And here.

Looks like the girls split up.

Hold up.
We got blood.

Directionality of the spatter says

whoever this belongs to is headed that way.

Hey, Jack.

Monty just tracked the Littles' credit card

to an Internet cafe in Bangkok.

Okay, well,
we got some blood out here on a path.

You and Mae find the source of that blood.

Clara and I will head back to the city.

You got it.

Hi. How are you?

You see what I see?

Yep.

And that is definitely not Jeff.

Aah!

Oh! Ay!

Oh! Ah! Ah!

Ay!

Huah!

He says he didn't hurt him.

Hey!

We've got Jeff's stuff.

We got Jeff.

Jeff's dead.

3-kilometer radius from this point on

Make sure you guys
build a perimeter and then push outward.

No.
Yes, I have to.

If you find anything, call me.

We'll come back and reestablish as well.

- I have to go down and get...
- No.

You are not allowed.

- I can't get clear photos from...
- Hey, hey. Come here.

Listen, now that there's a body,

this is the
Royal Thai Police's investigation.

If we overstep, we'll be kicked out

before we find Laura and Sarah.

Why not work together?

Because they have a process,
a system.

We have to respect it.

You mean to tell me you can't find anything

in those fancy photos?

Apparent C.O.D. is a severed carotid.

But the elements eroded the flesh,

so I can't tell if there was any hesitation.

What is this on the back of his neck?

Got a botched tattoo?

I could tell ya,
if I had access to his body,

but, since I don't...

The only way to know is
to examine him myself.

Ah!

Ah!

Aaaah!

Run.

- What?
- Run.

He's telling us to run.

Tropical Storm Hunter is moving

up the southern coast of Thailand.

It's due to hit Bangkok and
the surrounding provinces

tomorrow evening.

Many of the farms outside
Bangkok are lowlands

and are in danger of flooding.

Can you excuse us for a moment, please?

I'm so sorry.

How do you know Jeff Little wasn't involved?

He had a detailed journal,

telling us he was soul-searching.

There were no indicators he was suffering

any psychosis.

He was just a lost 20-year-old kid.

I will let the others know.

We're ready for a profile.

Gather your officers.

Now that Jeff is cleared as a suspect,

we need to focus on what
the unsub did to his body.

I want you to take the lead on this.

- You think he'll listen?
- Well, if there's only

you two talking, he won't have a choice.

Simmons and I are gonna go talk to the kid,

find out what else he saw at the crime scene.

Knock 'em out.

Aaaaah-aah-aah!

Shh, shh!

Aah! Shh!

Our victim's remains tell us a lot

about out unknown subject, or unsub.

Yes, that he liked to use a knife.

It's more than that.

He abducted three people,
but he killed the male first.

And the time of death says
that he did it right away.

- Why would he do that?
- Most likely to get rid

of competition and establish dominance.

Has he killed the girls?

It's doubtful he's done that, yet.

He's a power-assertive offender

who gets off on control.

He'll wanna prolong that experience.

And he's not gonna get rid of them

until his psychological needs are met.

How does any of this help us find him?

Because everything that he does

gives us a clue to what makes him tick.

He killed Jeff Little on the trail,

but he carried his body down to the ravine,

which contaminated any physical evidence.

He's more criminally
sophisticated than we thought.

He's violent.

And hunting at night
could be a learned behavior

and it also tells us that he doesn't have

the social skills to pull off a ruse.

You need to search for anyone

recently released from prison.

Ask if anyone fits this behavioral pattern.

Thank you.

Our morgues are in the hospital,

but, since this is active,

they're going to keep the body close.

I don't know when our
medical examiner can be here.

Okay.
Thank you.

The body has been deteriorating for 2.5 days.

It's gonna get worse without a freezer.

You might wanna take a look.

Just know they're not gonna
answer any of your questions.

I'm not gonna ask any.

Aaah!

Shh! Shh! Shh! Shh!

Ah! Oh!

Okay.

I saw some comfrey root leaves back there.

They'll help slow the bleeding.

Hurry back.

Clean cut, no hesitation.

Okay,
let's get some of this mud off here.

There it is.

It's not a tattoo.

It's not a birthmark.

Inflamed tissue,
but there's no blood pool,

so this was done postmortem.

My name is Kosum.

My name is Mae.

I think you lost this, Mae.

Yes. Thank you.

Is there a problem here?

Go ahead, Mae.

Hey, did you get the photo?

Uh, yeah.

Looks like a symbol of some kind.

It's not on a flat surface,
so I can't tell, for sure.

Will you fill it out and run it

against the popular symbols in this area?

Anything religious, cultural, political.

I'm already on it.

Here you guys are.

I thought you left me.

Thought about it.

Did you get anything from the local kid?

No.
He found the body, but was too afraid

to talk to the authorities.

What'd you find, Mae?

Zero hesitation on the kill.

Used a heavy blade.

He's definitely comfortable with a weapon.

The skin is raised, but there's

no blood pool or irritation.

This was done postmortem.

Is that from a branding iron?

Monty's running it now.

That's pretty specific.

Simmons, what's in your head?

Uh,
I think the unsub watched and waited,

most likely from higher ground,

till the three of them were isolated.

He attacked Jeff first,
the biggest threat.

And he had a compulsive
need to brand him,

like his prey.

What if that's why he's kept the girls alive?

He's hunting them.

Sarah, help!
No. Help! No.

Ow. Ow.

Sarah!

Ah!

Come on!
Let's go!

Winds and rain are picking
up in certain areas.

We do not have much time.

Those areas are surrounded
by miles of dense jungle.

How do we find them?

We've marked the abduction and dump sites.

Until we have a third,
it's impossible to know

which direction will lead
to the unsub's comfort zone.

What is that?

It's a narrowed-down
area where he feels safe.

- Most serial killers...
- What?

We do not have a serial killer.

There's only one victim.

He took three people at once.

In its nature, that's serial.

Look, apologies if we've offended you.

Every culture has their version

of multiple violations.

How do you know any of
this after only one murder?

Because he left a calling card.

Yeah, in this case, he branded Jeff.

What brand are you talking about?

Mae was able to lift a
partial image from Jeff's body.

My analyst at home is trying to identify it.

Hey. I've got it.

I'm sending it to you now.

You're the best, Monty.

Here you go.

I've seen this before.

Mani!

It was on
mutilated animals earlier this year.

Torturing animals is a precursor

to serial killing.

It allows him to perfect his M.O.

and find his ritual.

Where'd you find the animals?

Ah! Ah!

I can't make it.
You should go.

I'm not about to leave you.

Now, get up.

Ow!

Got the three points,
the hunting and the kill zones

and, now,
where the dead animals were found.

What's Chonburi province known for?

Wild-boar hunting.

And land disputes, going
back many generations.

We're looking for a
family who's lost the most.

I know a few.

Simmons, get Monty on the phone.

He can help us narrow it down.

According to Thai records,

the only survivor is 20-year-old klahan.

That means “very brave”.

My guess is he had to prove it,
through a lifetime of violence.

Yeah, just spent a year
in Samut Prakarn prison

for attacking trespassers with a spear.

He was released and, days later,
his grandmother died.

She was the last remaining relative.

That stressor, combined with
his homicidal tendencies,

created the perfect storm.

Are there any cultural traditions

for the last remaining member of a family?

This could be Ullambana.

Come again?

It's a Mahayana festival.

When followers believed
the gates of hell open

and ghosts of ancestors visit the living,

traditionally,
offerings are made to the departed.

The unsub,
sacrificing humans to his dead family.

And he's proven they're worthy
by hunting them for 3 days.

He'll kill them before the storm hits.

There's something up ahead.

Hello!

Oh, God.

What's that smell?

We're back where we started.

Run!

Ru-u-u-u-u-n.

Huh.
These can be used for self-mutilation.

Maybe that's his way of expressing emotion.

And, in this culture, it's a way

of sacrificing yourself to a higher power.

Here's the branding iron.

Oh, check this out, guys.

“Tell our parents we're sorry”.

Looks like he's using the
topography as his trap.

Look at these terrain features.

There's a river to one side,
mountains on another,

- and a cliff.
- Means they're in this area.

Yeah,
but it could take hours to find them.

Let's move out.

Wait.
We go out there like

a bunch of alpha males, he'll attack.

You wanna talk him down?

Or you want Taksin to do it?

I want you to.

He's not gonna listen to me.

There were many important women in his life.

He'll listen.

He had a close family

and they were important to him.

Just build a rapport

and he'll respect what you have to say.

This doesn't have to be his fate.

That's right.

Oof!

Sarah, look out!
He's coming!

Uh!

Please, let us go.

Simmons, cover her.

Hey, hey.
Hey, hey.

Okay.

Okay.
Okay.

Agh!

Yeah.

Oh!

He was all alone.

So I just set the record
for fastest paperwork.

Yeah.
Still took you all day.

Let me see that.

Royal Thai Police coin.
Very nice.

Yeah, Monty's gonna love it.

Oh, yeah.

By the way, I don't mean to brag,

but did you see that back there?

What?

Taksin had a hint of a smile.

Yeah?
Doesn't surprise me.

You are determined, stubborn,

likely to win someone over.

In this job, that's a good combo.

Does that mean I get to drive the bike?

No.

Did you hear they downgraded the storm?

Yeah?
Somebody should tell that to the rain.

These winds aren't bad.

Should make the flight home better.

I've been out of the game too long, Jack.

I'm sitting here,
feeling sorry for a man

who killed an innocent kid.

And he would've killed more,

if we hadn't have stopped him.

You don't see it, do you?

That I'm soft?
Yeah, I see it clearly.

You're not.

He was lonely and you connected to him,

to the humanity in that moment.

Feeling alone?

It's a horrible thing.

You're not alone.

You have people who love you.

I miss him.

I miss him so much.

Me too.

So what are the chances
that I would run into you

just days before my 2-year
bureau sabbatical runs out?

It sounds like fate to me.

Yeah?

You know,
there are no hoops to jump through,

if you wanna come back right now.

Life's too long to be alone.

Let's go home.

Yeah.
