ORMEWOOD:
Previously on Will Trent ...

Mom, what are you doing here?

Franklin said you
needed some help.

I really don't need
any help,

and I'm sure you have
other things to do.

Oh, baby, I'm retired.

Evelyn, how are you?

Took a while to figure out how
to maneuver this stage in life

with your knife still
in my back.

You know how I said
I grew up in a group home?

Well, Will was there.

What happened here?

I came home from work early
and I found him.

Lenny Broussard,
you're under arrest.

- [screams]
- [screams]

- You weren't here.
- No, no, I killed Lenny, okay?

What are you doing here?

I got a lot of work to do
if we're to make the scene

match your statement.

[funky music]

Hold up, hold up.

You go cook your father breakfast

every morning?

AMANDA: That was the deal
when I got my own place.

I said I'd stop by every day.

Amanda Wagner,
you need to grow a spine.

I wouldn't make breakfast
for my husband every morning,

and we're under the same roof.

How's Bill doing now,
with you back at work?

Mm, smart enough
to say he's fine.

What, you see something?

PETE: Sutures to the mouth
were made prior to death.

ORMEWOOD: Cross stitch.

PETE: Exactly.

Detective Ormewood.

My nana used to do them,

Do we know what he used
to pierce the heart?

I'm leaning towards screwdriver,

[sighs] Wow.

Strangled to death and then
stabbed through the heart.

Really crosses his T's

Can we help you?

Will went to go pick Angie up
from the hospital,

so you got me.

What's she talking about?

Oh, there was another case
two weeks ago.

Same strangulation, stabbing,
antemortem mutilation.

Could be a serialist.

Look, APD asked us to partner.

[sighs] Fine.

I'd rather work with you bozos
than get assigned

a temporary partner
for this one.

How's Angie?

Polaski's a survivor.

You couldn't find
the blue hoodie?

You left it on the floor.

Betty found it
particularly comfortable.

Don't forget this.

Thanks for coming.

The hospital wouldn't let me
use a ride app.

Sure.

I assume I'm taking you

I think that's for the best.

Agreed.

Yeah, it's tomorrow.

[quiet dramatic music]

♪

I'm just gonna tell 'em
what happened.

The truth?

Right.

♪

I'll pull the car around.

Female victim
was Brooke Miller, 31.

Her husband reported her
missing three days ago.

FAITH:
Went grocery shopping.

Car was found unlocked in the
parking lot, no signs of her.

ORMEWOOD: Her husband's name
is Spencer Miller,

and he's coming in
for an interview.

AMANDA:
And the other victim was male?

Edward Ross, 34.

Body was found two weeks ago.

Ross was living in
a week-to-week motel.

When he stopped paying,
the landlord boxed up

all his stuff and set it aside
just in case he came back.

We sent a uniform out
to pick it all up.

Based on the last time
that they were seen

and their estimated time
of death,

our killer keeps them alive
approximately 48 hours,

then he finishes them off
and dumps them.

One upper-middle-class female,

one male living on the margins.

Not your typical pattern.

Well, I agree,
but the body trauma is uncanny.

This is a very specific kind
of psycho.

There's something else
that links them together.

Something weird.

Weirder than mouths sewn shut

and a screwdriver
through the heart?

Nail polish,

on both the female
and the male victims.

Hmm.

[somber music]

Well, there are a lot
of sick puppies in the world.

Could be dealing with two
killers in communication...

Inspired by the same source.

Let's not jump to conclusions.

That's the surest way
to miss something.

We'll keep
the investigations separate

but track any overlap,
see what emerges.

Evelyn, I need you.

He's back.

I thought nights were the
busiest time for prostitutes.

Nah, the morning rush
and lunch breaks.

They bring fast money
in bunches for these girls.

Now y'all know
you're dead wrong

for messing with our money
right now.

We could haul your ass off
to jail just for saying that.

That's not why we're here.

What's that?

Just a little care package.

Tampons, toothbrush,
washcloth, condoms.

Ain't nothing free
on the street.

So what do y'all want?

We just want to remind
you girls

to stay safe out here.

Don't stroll alone,

try to keep the nighttime work
to a minimum,

and report any strange johns
lurking around.

Is this about that
other red-haired girl

that got all tore up?

I heard they glued
her mouth shut.

Her hair was brown, stupid.

And it was her eyelids.

Actually, it was her mouth
and her eyelids,

and they weren't glued,
they were sewn.

Just do us a favor
and stick to your regulars.

Don't get in the car
with anybody you don't know.

I don't care how much money
they offer.

She ain't shown up yet.

Yeah, we see what
your safety looks like.

Teaching my girls

They don't know how to keep

wonderful inside them uniforms,

something that could make a lot
more money than a cop salary.

Y'all come talk to me

Oh, you'll definitely
see us again.

What do they call you?

Juice.

They call me Juice.

EVELYN:
The mouth thing, yes.

The screwdriver, that's new,

and he never touched
their eyelids.

The red nail polish.

They're older.

They're not sex workers.
One of the victims was a male.

This is
a totally different pattern.

I don't know,
maybe I'm overreacting,

but I need to know.

Juice died in prison
six years ago.

Maybe he bragged about it,
gave someone else the itch.

Okay, so then why don't you
loop in the agents

working on the case?

Seriously, Mandy?

I assigned it
before I knew the details.

Evelyn...

I-I can't tell Will unless
I'm absolutely sure about it.

I need your help.

Please.

I've convinced myself that
Juice murdered these women,

and the fact that it stopped
once he went away

only confirmed it.

But we always had our doubts.

What if Juice didn't do it?

Wouldn't be
the first time someone

was punished for something
they didn't do, huh?

Are we good?

Yeah, we're good.

I'll help.

Not like I have
anything else better to do.

FAITH:
Mr. Miller, so how many years

were you and Brooke married?

13 this September.

ORMEWOOD:
So she was 18 and you were...?

47.

I know how this looks.

I was old enough
to be her father.

- Nobody was thinking that.
- I was thinking that.

Okay, maybe I was, too.

She was an old soul, okay?

Brooke went through more

in the first 18 years
of her life

than most of us
do in a lifetime.

All I wanted to do
is take care of her.

- Yeah, I'll bet.
- [bangs table]

She had a hellish childhood,

only to be murdered
by some sick freak?

What do you mean
by a hellish childhood?

What exactly happened?

She was an orphan.

See, that's why
you don't get any sex.

See, that's unnecessary.

Wonder how much
he would remember.

Hmm. Let's go see.

who's targeting people
that lived

at the Holy Grace
Children's Home.

Damn.
Thanks for the heads-up, guys.

You should check into a hotel

and stay there
till we know more.

Do we think that the killer
could be one of us?

We're still trying

But Betty's staying

Isn't that right, girl?

You know

Remember PeePee Percy?

There's a name
I haven't heard in years.

Yeah, he was a weird kid.

Mrs. Flannery caught him

Used to kill mice,
keep them under his bed.

Worth looking into.

Either of you remember

PeePee... Percival?

The connection's undeniable.

What does Amanda think?

She doesn't know.

Is that why we're doing
this here?

Look, Angie and I have
the best chances

There's no way Amanda

Angie's still
on administrative leave,

and technically,
we're both suspects...

And targets.

- So how do you wanna play it?

We need to locate them.

There's some whose
full names we don't remember,

changed their names.

So can you two subpoena

Yeah, can do.

PeePee Percy?

We should hold

We want to ask you
about one of your old clients,

a pimp named Juice.

You remember him?

You mean Julius Walker?

Let's show a dead man
the respect

of calling him
by his given name.

Mm, I'm not inclined to give
pimps who beat their girls

to a bloody pulp any respect.

What's all this about?

We're investigating
some recent murders,

looking into connections
to those prostitutes.

Well, it can't be Juice,
because Juice is dead.

I thought you said
call him Julius.

I was just posturing.

He was innocent, by the way.

He admitted to beating
one of his girls to death.

But he wasn't a serial killer.

He only took that plea deal
to avoid the death penalty.

Are you sure you ladies
wouldn't like a drink?

It's on me.

Did...did Juice mention
any other suspects?

Any leads the detectives
didn't follow?

There was one man
that Juice mentioned.

He was a regular
with some of his girls.

He liked to brush their hair,
primp them,

that sort of thing.

I always thought
that was important

because of the, uh, the nails.

Remember?

Red polish.

You still have any
of your old notes, hmm?

Anything I could look into?

Amanda Wagner, shame on you.

You know even if I did,

those notes
are still confidential.

Oh, come on, James.

A favor between old friends?

You know, I'll take a look.

I always did have
a soft spot for you.

I think I have them
in storage somewhere.

Yeah, I could bring them over myself.

It would be great to catch up.

We'd appreciate that.

You really think there
might be a connection here?

I mean, those murders
were over 30 years ago.

If whoever killed
those girls is still kicking,

it would be with a walker.

Tara, wait a minute.

What do you want, Wags?

Nothing from you.

Something did.

I got arrested.

We got her from here, Tara.

of a suspicious john

in Butch or Rick's reports.

Butch and Rick were happy
to close the case entirely

the second they found Juice
with the dead girl in his room.

You know, Butch hit me once.

Did you call the cops?

[both laugh]

Girl.

You know, one time,
he threatened to rape me

with his nightstick.

Great guy.

Anyway, now you make
more money than he ever did,

so there's that.

I remember
asking him questions,

following up on leads.

Rick said the only thing
he'd tell me

is his lunch order.

It was a different time.

We should have
dug deeper, Evelyn.

We could have found that john,
stopped this whole thing.

Amanda, stop.

No, now I'm the one
sitting behind the desk,

telling Angie Polaski
she can't do her job.

[apprehensive music]

History repeats itself.

It was my fault then,
and it's my fault now.

Come on, now.

[knock at door]

Come in.

I need to talk to you.

Hey, you can't park there.

We can park
wherever we want, PeePee.

[tense percussive music]

Will?

- Percy.
- And I'm Michael.

Now that we're all
best friends,

let's have a little chat.

I hear you've been trying
to find our old housemates,

posing as the
Georgia Housing Endowment.

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

You used certified mail.
We traced the tracking numbers.

Perseus Larson, get out.
Hey!

Do not start
this vehicle, Percy.

Seat belt, really?

- Unlock this door!
- [engine turns over]

Percy! Hey, Percy!

- Unlock this door!
- Get out!

You're fleeing
law enforcement.

Hey, hey!

Do not hit my car.

- Ormewood, block him. Hey!
- Using what, Trent?

Stop the car, PeePee.

Get out the car! Hands up!

Why didn't you just do that
in the first place?

Get out.

What are you, crazy?

Up against the car.

Hands behind your back.

PERCY:
I didn't do anything wrong.

I'm a private investigator
licensed with the state.

A PI license doesn't give you
the right to trespass

and steal confidential files
or resist arrest.

Or drive with a police officer
on the hood of your car.

Condemned building,
no locks and no signage.

Won't stick.

Maybe this will.

Teddy Ross, Brooke Miller,
David Reynolds,

all of them dead.

All contacted by you.

That's mail fraud. Federal crime.

I was doing a job. That's all.

You were an outcast, PeePee.

Grew up resentful, angry,
decided to get payback.

I never wasted a day thinking
about you miserable bitches

until I was hired,
and don't ask by who.

I don't know; that's the point
of my business.

You're gonna have
to do better than that, Percy.

You're an accessory
to three homicides.

Okay.

I got a message,

someone offering
a lot of money.

Tracked me down because
I had been at the home.

They sent me the article
and asked me to find everyone

who was there same time as us.

What article?

The one
in "Southern Society."

[suspenseful music]

That feature story
about Paul Campano

and how you rescued
his daughter.

ORMEWOOD:
It's all in there.

That you were in
a group home together,

they called you Trashcan.

Murderer hired Percy
because they saw this article.

I don't know why,
but it's the reason.

Will.

I need you in my office, now.

I never said that.
