- Trick or treat! - Welcome.

Who dares bring this little Roger Federer into my castle?

What did I tell you kids? This house is the best on the block.

Of course, you already know that. And soon, we will rule Transylvania.

Okay, candy?

That's what I thought.

One, two, because you got an honest face.

- Thank you. - You're welcome. Thanks for coming.

We really need to switch it up.

These teeth are killing me.

I didn't sign up for that.

Hey, in the Cole family, handing out candy is part of our civic duty. Hm.

Where's mom?

She's lying down.

She's not feeling well.

It's a full moon.

Uh, let me go check on her.

No, no, no.

She's fine. She's my wife.

Now, let us watch spooky movies

and TP the neighborhood and give gobs of chocolates

to the golden goblins of deep in its folds.

Hmm?

I have to study, Dad.

The MCATs, it's a six hour test.

This stuff reads like stereo instructions.

Doctor Kevorkian, line one.

Exactly.

It sounds overwhelming.

- It is. - So take a break.

Spend some time with your old man.

Life goes faster than you think.

The next one.

I'll come to the front door, the next one.

Want to go with the teeth?

I'll clean them. All right. Mm!

You're crazy.

Christ, can you shut the door, Dad?

Dad, shut the door. It's freezing in here.

Dad?

Dad!

I want to drink your blood!

Dad, what the fuck?

Hey, watch your language.

I got you good on that one.

You're silly.

It wasn't funny, Dad.

Come on, I got a chapter to read through here.

If you keep going like that, there'll be nothing left for those kids.

Eh, we probably don't need any more.

There's just a few stragglers left.

More for me.

Like I said.

Just a few stragglers.

I think it's happy hour.

Oh! Okay.

Next victim.

Dad.

Seriously, you gotta close the door.

Dad!

I'm not gonna fall for it again, Dad.

Dad?

Seriously.

Dad, you can come out now.

Dad.

Connor.

Dad!

Connor, Connor. Look at me.

Hey, what is it?

Connor, what happened?

Connor!

Excuse me, can somebody tell me what's going on?

Hi, Mr. Cole. My name is Shelly Littner.

I'm the grief counselor here.

Okay.

I'm so sorry.

But your father died.

Okay, what is going on?

- Excuse me. - Mike.

No, don't call me that. Only Dad calls me that.

- Michael, come on. Come on. - I'm sorry.

- You got this. - I'm sorry.

- Come on, just breathe. - I'm sorry.

I thought you said that my dad was...

I did.

I'm sorry.

We're gonna get you through this, okay?

Where the fuck were you when this happened?

What?

What did you say?

- What... did you do? - Don't. Don't you do that.

What?

- Don't. Don't touch me. - What the fuck did you do?

What did you do? Where the fuck were you?

What the fuck did you do?

What did you do? Huh? What did you do?

- What did I do? - Where the fuck were you?

How do you think I got this?

Come on, Michael. Let's go. Michael.

I would have saved him.

- I did what I could. - I would have.

- I would have fucking saved him. - Come on, let's go.

Miss Moira, sorry to wake you.

I'm Detective Cyphers,

and this is my partner, Detective Lynn Fink.

Look, I know you've been through a lot tonight.

Hm.

But it's very important that you try and tell us what happened.

I told the other detectives.

What other detectives?

The woman with the glasses.

Glasses?

She touched me.

I didn't like that.

I told you to lock this place down.

I did.

No reporters, no interviews, nothing.

Get out there and lock this shit down.

I'm on it.

I apologize for that.

- Mm. - Look, Miss Moira...

I'm gonna need you to go over everything with me.

You could help me to find the person that killed your husband.

Lee.

My cousin.

Lee Morris, Skulleton?

- Where are my sons? - They're fine.

I want my sons!

- I want my sons! I want my sons! - A little help!

Got it?

- Okay. - Is he dead?

Did I kill him?

Is he dead?

Is he dead?

We are here at the scene of a heinous crime

that has the entire Deep Ridge Falls community on edge

as the assailant is still at large.

A continuous search and manhunt is in progress

as local authorities have put out the alert

for all citizens to be on edge and cautious

for any suspicious activity.

Thank you so much.

See you next week.

Thanks. See you later.

Hm.

Found somebody new to take care of, Samantha?

It's none of your business, Lynn.

Just saying.

You live so close by, and I know you miss your mom.

I'm gonna need an itemized receipt.

Of course.

How are you holding up in that big, empty house of yours?

I'm fine.

I'm just fine.

You know, I could come over sometime and, uh,

keep you company if you like.

I'd rather drink Drano.

- Excuse me? - No. I said no, thank you.

All right.

You want some candy?

I've got all this left over and, uh, got that licorice you like.

No.

No thank you.

- I need an itemized receipt. - Here you go.

Have a nice day.

Sweetness.

Lee!

Lee!

I knew I'd find you here.

It's me.

It's your sister.

Oh, my gosh, you're so injured. Let me help you.

Let me help you.

I'm a nurse now, eh?

You can trust me.

Okay? The only one you can trust.

You can't stay out here all night.

You're gonna freeze and you're gonna get caught.

Okay?

You're safe with me.

Come here.

I know it's been a long day.

I'm so happy to see you.

Want some more coffee?

I'm sorry, what?

Coffee.

No.

No.

What do we do now?

Oh, no.

Hey!

Hey!

Get the fuck off my block.

Oh, no, man.

That is not happening.

Cyphers.

Yeah, it's Moira.

I changed my number.

Yeah.

Yeah, did you run that plate?

SLS 266?

This bitch is sitting out front of my house today.

Again, it's like the fourth time.

Dude, just run the plate.

Yeah, I know it's that time of year,

but this bitch is halfway up the block just sitting there.

Dude, run that plate.

There's only one, the original,

the classic, The Skulleton.

This Wednesday night marks the 24 hour movie marathon event

of one of the most beloved icons of our time.

Terror has crept into this small community

where no one is safe.

Stay close to me, and we'll find your dad.

You're not gonna get your daddy.

Join Moira Cole and her young friends

as they fight for survival against Lee Morris, in The Skulleton.

- Can Moira Cole survive the night? - -Mom!

Check local listings for showtimes. Subject matter may not be...

Hey.

What did I tell you about coming in here unannounced?

When you stop screaming, I'll stop coming in unannounced.

Happy anniversary.

What?

Happy anniversary. It's been a year.

Time to get dressed.

I don't want to get dressed.

Come on. I'll help you make your bed.

You could take me for coffee.

I don't want to take you for coffee.

I don't want to make my bed.

And I don't want to get dressed.

Are you willing to talk to Dr. Lucien yet?

Mom.

I don't want to talk to your witch doctor.

He's a shrink.

Same difference.

I know you can't see it yet,

but I promise you,

you will come out of this.

See, that's the part that you don't understand, Mom.

I don't want to come out of it.

You have to find something to live for.

I had it, Mom.

I had it.

Let me know if you change your mind.

Hey. I was looking for you.

Everything okay?

No.

Just leave him alone, Mom.

You wanna go get a coffee?

Yes. I would.

All right.

Get some real clothes on. I gotta be at work in an hour, all right?

- So you can drop me off. - Okay. You got it.

Hello?

Mom.

Come on, Mom. What do I gotta do to get you out of this funk?

- Have a scone. You gotta eat something. - Oh, God, no.

I've been on bile and adrenaline.

What do you want? Something else?

- I want this coffee. - Breakfast sandwich? Okay.

Hi.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my gosh, Lisa.

- Hi. - Oh, my gosh.

- I'm so happy to see you. - You too.

- Hey. - Hey.

How have you been?

Are you... Do you still have the school? Are you teaching?

Yeah, yeah, everything's been really good.

I'm just grabbing a coffee

before my toddlers on ice class at noon.

I can't wrap my mind around they start that young. Right?

- Yeah. - So young.

- So... yeah. - Yeah.

I think I got my first pair of skates when I was three years old.

That's insane.

That's not a pair of ballet shoes, you know?

That's like, ice skates.

Look, uh, Mom, I gotta get to work.

Um, you guys stay. Catch up.

It's good seeing you.

Yeah.

Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I didn't realize he forgot how to talk.

It's okay.

Do you have time to go for a walk? Hang out?

- Yes. - Oh, my God.

I'm so happy to see you. You want the rest of those?

Yeah. Thank you.

I definitely don't.

Tell me you're not seeing anyone.

I'm not.

Yes!

I can work with that.

- Thank God. - So?

Yeah.

- How is Michael? - Well...

He needs you.

No. He does not.

- Oh, he does. - No.

You two were made for each other.

You were. You are.

I know this. I'm pretty sure you do.

And he just needs a little more time to remember.

Please don't give up on him.

That would be a mistake.

Is he seeing a therapist?

He... not yet.

He needs to see someone.

A thousand percent.

And he... he's very close.

He just, he's still kind of crushed under the weight of...

feeling responsible for his brother and me,

which is a big fat fail in the mom department.

Stop.

You're a great mom.

I know you think so.

- I do. - Oh, shit.

How could they do that? I mean, you live here.

It is what it is.

I still get royalty checks in the mail.

There.

Might be our best batch.

All cause of you.

I'll tell you why.

'Cause you're special.

You sure are.

And we don't need to discuss why you did what you did.

Okay?

Hey, hey, hey, yo, yo.

I will not have another repeat of last October.

You will not act up.

No, no, no, no.

So we're gonna need to put you on a new mood stabilizer

because the lithium isn't working.

Did you know that she lives at 11 Colonial Street?

With her two boys.

She's still there.

With Michael and Connor.

Hey!

Hey, do you know where Dad's Halloween box is?

There's two in the attic.

- Michael, there's another one over there. - Oh.

They're in this one?

- Why are you smoking out here? - Why are you in here?

'Cause I'm taking out the trash,

which you should be doing.

Come on, come on!

Don't take that cigarette...

Come on.

Mom, he's an adult.

Well, then he should do more adulting.

- Mom. - Yeah?

Can we talk for a second?

It's important.

Yeah, sorry.

It's all good.

Listen, I'm moving out.

What is that?

I think you should.

Okay.

Uh, I thought you'd try and stop me, tell me it was too soon...

- No. - Or that Connor wasn't ready, or...

Connor may never be ready, Michael.

That has nothing to do with you.

- Nothing to do with you. - Okay.

If you're ready to get on with your life,

then do it.

Move out.

Put up decorations.

Marry Lisa.

- What? - Did I say that out loud?

- One thing at a time, okay? - Yes! One thing at a time.

Oh, hey.

Hi, officer. I didn't see you right there.

I must have got myself turned around. I am terrible at directions.

- Is that it? - Yeah.

I mean, unless you want a jar of my mead.

It's pumpkin spice and I brew it myself.

You can't stop here and idle like that. It's a private residence.

- Okay. - Understand?

Yeah, I just got lost a little bit.

- Do you understand? - Yeah.

I do now.

Move on.

I'll be damned.

You ran it.

Yep. She's a nobody.

47, lives on North Cotner Lane, nurse at the NICU.

She took care of her sick mother, who croaked about seven years ago.

Your compassion is overwhelming.

Well, now she clocks four days a week at Mather Medical.

Um, like I said, she's a nobody.

Yep.

Maybe not.

There is one thing, says she changed her name legally,

but doesn't list why or give the former.

Have Dimity look into the name change.

Copy.

Also, Mather Medical.

Why was she over by the Cole residence?

I don't get it, they both live in the same town.

Yeah, but on the opposite sides of the freeway.

Why would she be on that street?

What?

I was just thinking if the captain saw me taking initiative on this...

- Christ. - I mean, Cyphers, he...

Are you thinking about it as a promotion?

You have any idea what real detective work is?

It's methodical.

It's systematic.

It's a slow moving target that you have to stay on top of.

Yeah, I understand.

I don't think you do.

Because we actually have to build a case.

Especially these days.

Where are you now, Moira?

I'm in the woods between my dad's house and my aunt's.

And what do you see around you?

My whole body hurts.

It's cold.

Are you alone?

I'm never alone out here.

I'm with my cousin, Lee.

Who else is with you?

His little sister.

I told him not to bring her.

I told her to look at the flowers.

I'm telling her to look at the flowers.

She shouldn't be seeing this.

What is it you don't want her to see?

It's just a bird.

But it's so violent.

I can't stop it.

Moira. Hear me.

You can stop it.

No, I can't stop it.

Yeah, you can stop it.

Just tell him. You can see him.

Tell him, stop it.

You couldn't protect that little girl.

But you can now.

- Look at him and tell him to stop. - I can't look at him. I can't stop it.

It is okay.

Now, I'm gonna count to five.

One, two, three, four, five.

Hurt him for me.

Come on back.

We're here.

I'm here for you every day.

I just wanted to get further.

This time.

Not today, but you're getting there.

And you know what the whole key to it is?

Realizing that you are you.

And you are magnificent.

You gotta give a shit about yourself.

Can we just agree

that Vera Wilde's Ecstasy series

may be, quite possibly... I can't believe I'm saying this.

The greatest book ever written?

Better than Moon's First Kiss?

But that's been your favorite book for 20 years. But it's a sign.

It's a sign. There's signs all around us.

We can change.

We can change every day.

Yes, we can change!

Whoo-hoo! Lee.

What are you doing?

Whoo!

Okay.

Bad boy.

You'll feel better.

Sleep tight.

You're okay. I love you.

Good night.

Oh, my God. What did I do now?

Did you tell Michael to move out?

Yeah, I did.

Why the fuck would you do that to us?

Watch your mouth in my house.

Your house?

It was Dad's life insurance that paid it off.

Don't disrespect me in my home!

You want to talk about respect?

Yes, I do want to talk about respect!

Have some self-respect!

You sleep all day,

you never leave the house,

you don't contribute anything to the house,

you walk around here like an angry zombie.

Oh, what the actual fuck are you talking about?

You don't think your brother and I hear you

stomping around the halls all night long?

- You're a fucking liar. - I'm a liar?

- I'm sick of it. - What are you sick of?

I'm sick of you, you got dad murdered!

I'm sorry.

If I could trade places with him, I would.

But you can't.

Liar.

Where did you get those?

Why are you sitting out here in the car?

Um...

I got all the way to the leasing office and I just sat there.

Couldn't get out of the car.

Why?

I don't know. That's the problem.

I just felt stuck, you know?

Like I was frozen.

My mind is just racing.

You gotta talk to someone.

You do.

I know.

Help you organize those thoughts.

It doesn't have to be Dr. Lucian, but someone.

I know.

- I know. - You do?

Yes.

Will you do it?

I miss Dad.

Awful things happen that we have no control over.

There's unspeakable suffering in the world,

but we're not meant to suffer alone.

Your dad chose to love me,

despite...

me...

and I had no control over that.

And thank God,

because you and your brother came out of that love.

You're not alone.

So keep going.

Thank you.

Is it five o'clock somewhere?

Hey.

- I love you, Mom. - I love you.

So much.

Come inside. And I really need a drink.

Cyphers, you in?

What made you snap Samantha Marrin?

Mental instability?

Bad family?

I'm gonna find out.

Sam Marrin.

This is Detective Fink from the DRF Police Department.

I'd like to ask you a few questions.

This is Detective Fink.

Coming in.

Police!

Anyone down here?

Show your hands!

Dispatch. Do you copy?

I need a bus and a medic.

Do you copy?

Dispatch. Do you copy?

Dispatch!

I need a medic.

I have a victim...

That was so good, you guys.

We're gonna work on those turns, yeah?

Make sure to wear Halloween appropriate costumes

at the party next week. Okay?

Okay. Bye, guys.

What are you doing here?

I just came by to say...

To say what?

Um...

Michael, what do you have to say?

I miss you.

I know.

So, you're still training.

What does it look like?

- Was I that much of a... - A dick?

I did everything that I could to make it work between us.

And I know that you know that.

You're right.

I'm sorry.

Look, I just shut down.

And I pushed you away.

I wasn't thinking about you.

And that wasn't fair.

I am so sorry.

Thank you.

I hope it's not over between us.

I don't...

I don't even know what to say.

I don't even know what to think.

I can't go through this again.

I promise,

you won't have to.

I love you.

I'm sorry.

Lee, I'm home.

Oh!

The NICU was so crowded tonight,

I've never ever seen it like this.

Of course, Devin and Lauren called out.

It was so strange.

Then the Southern State was closed down,

so I had to take the long way home.

And it was just... It's just been a long day.

Whoo! I was thinking about making lamb chops tonight.

Lee!

Lee?

Lee?

Oh, no, no, no, no!

Lee! What have you done?

What have you done?

What have you done?

Lee, get in here!

Lee, listen.

Mommy told me how to shoot.

She taught me and I'll do it.

You know, I don't really want to, but I'll do it.

Lee, don't make me do this.

Please.

We can talk about it.

Lee...

Lee, I love you so much and I don't want to shoot you, but I will.

I will shoot you.

Lee, I love you so much, but you're scaring me, Lee!

Lee, no!

Lee!

Oh, no.

I'm fine, Mommy. I swear. I swear I'm fine. I'm fine. Mm-hm. Mm-hm.

Yeah, yeah. Okay.

Can I help you?

Can I help you?

Hey.

Where do you think you're going?

Hey!

Pal! Buddy. Can you not hear me?

Can you hear me?

You need to get out of my store now.

Now.

A tragic scene today in Deep Ridge Falls,

as the body of local shop owner, Lynn Matic,

of Lynn's Supplies and Hardware was found unresponsive

and later pronounced dead.

Police are investigating the scene,

and sources close to the case say there were signs of a struggle.

We're told a first responder and local nurse,

Samantha Marin, discovered the body late this afternoon

and tried to administer lifesaving aid.

Officials say she was held for questioning

but later let go by local authorities.

I need to see Cyphers now.

Ma'am, we told you not to show up unless it's an emergency.

It's an emergency.

You have to sign in.

What's going on?

Detective, she's nuts.

It's my sign in.

What are you doing?

It's him. I know it's him.

And that nurse on the scene stalked me four times in one week.

I gave you her license plate number.

Ma'am, your cousin is dead.

You don't have a body. Did you let that nurse go?

Come meet me on the side door.

Or answer my question.

- Get in here now! - Maybe she's gone.

You can't come running in here screaming at the top of your lungs.

I'm in your office.

Could've gotten you shot.

You never found his body.

And this freako nurse is somehow connected.

- Did you let her go? - You need to let it go.

You know, in some sick way,

I'm starting to think you're getting off on this shit.

Screw it.

That was a little harsh.

- May I? - You're in my office now.

You know what the problem is?

- What? - The problem is you've convinced yourself

because I wear a badge and a gun

that I suddenly don't give a fuck about you and your family.

It's not true.

I got ten detectives lined up,

watching my every move,

waiting to take my job.

You and your family are nuts.

You check off every box.

You're in and out of my precinct, acting like you on drugs every other week.

And I'm still in it.

I'm still trying to get to the bottom of what happened.

Do you know what it feels like to be stalked?

To be the prey?

No, I don't.

I hope you never do.

Don't you want something different for yourself?

You and your sons deserve a better life.

Maybe you can't do that here.

It doesn't matter where we go.

Until you have a body,

we're prey.

And that's our life.

Find the nurse.

All right? Find that bitch.

Moira?

Just tell her to look at the flowers.

- Look at the flowers. - Okay?

Look at the flowers.

Moira, what's happening now?

She shouldn't be here.

She shouldn't be here.

Hurt him for me.

- No. - It's okay. It's okay.

- No, no, no. - Stay in it.

You're the only one that can protect me from my father.

- Stay in it. - No.

Stay in it, Moira.

Stop! Please!

Stop! Stop!

I did this for you.

Ah...

You're back with me.

And you know where we are?

We're in the present.

Yes.

It's okay.

You did it.

Coco.

Coco.

Coco, go downstairs and check it out.

See, I told you they're nuts.

Yeah.

What the hell is going on?

You little fuckers.

If I see you again in this neighborhood,

I'm gonna chop you up into little pieces

and feed you to my fucking dog.

Now get out of here!

Was that really necessary?

Was what really necessary?

He's a dumb-ass kid.

Fuckers.

Where are you headed, sir?

Oh, detective. Uh, why didn't you use the call signs?

I didn't realize you were in an unmarked.

I'll get you out of here soon. Hang tight.

Is everything okay?

Oh, my God.

No! No! No!

We've got lots of great music coming up for you in just a few minutes,

but first we have the news.

The discovery of a body identified as Detective Lynn Fink

of the Deep Ridge Falls Police Department has residents on edge.

Two hikers, we're told, came across the gruesome scene

in the early morning hours,

and immediately contacted local authorities.

We're told the suspect in his murder is still at large

as police continue to investigate what led up to this crime.

Cyphers.

It's him. Isn't it?

- Who? - Lee.

It's not him, Moira.

It is him. I know it's him.

Moira, listen.

I just had to go to a morgue and identify my partner of ten years.

Today is not the day. I'm not in the right headspace.

It's him.

You have to know it's him.

Did you understand anything that I just said to you?

It is him. I know it's him.

Shit, man. You scared me.

What, are you ten?

What are you, a dick?

Where's mom?

Why do you care?

What's that supposed to mean?

- She hit me. - Well, she should've laid you out.

Your shit is tired, bro.

Whatever.

Oh, okay. What, are you going to bed?

God, you are such a loser, man.

Don't call me a loser.

Well, don't act like one.

Hey, Mike.

How's Lisa doing?

You gotta wonder how many dudes she's been with while you were,

you know, figuring it out.

It could really make your head spin.

You know, you are a miserable human being. Do you know that?

You need help.

Nobody should be this unhappy. It's criminal.

Oh. Screw you.

You got money from Dad's life insurance policy.

You got two degrees.

Get a car, go on a date, start a fucking life for Christ's sake.

God, that is done for me.

That life, it's over.

You weren't there.

You didn't see what that man did to him.

I didn't see?

No, you didn't.

Are you kidding me right now?

I identified Dad's body in the fucking morgue.

You think that was easy for me?

Hm?

No, you know what? You're right.

You're right. It was no big deal for me at all.

- Fuck off, dude. - You know what? We all suffered.

Just grow up.

Don't fucking do that again!

She decimated us.

- It was her. - No.

- She did this to us. - She didn't.

She's not God.

She doesn't have all the answers to your problems.

That's not how it works.

No shit. I'm not a fucking idiot.

Then stop using her as your excuse.

If you could step out of your own self-pity for ten seconds,

you would understand that.

She wrote to him.

Did you know that?

She intentionally left our address

on dozens of letters.

To a fucking serial killer in a maximum security institution.

She led him to us.

She practically rung a fucking dinner bell.

Stop. It's fucking enough already, Connor.

Just stop, man.

Here.

See for yourself.

Read it.

Where'd you find these?

Behind Dad's old chest in the garage.

In a hidden compartment, and there's a lot more of them.

Does she know you have them?

Why don't you ask her that?

Can you zoom in on that license plate, please?

- This is as close as I can get before it... - Before it what?

- Corrupts. - What are you talking about?

What's the point of using these cameras if you can't get a simple plate?

- It usually picks it up. - -Well, what is the issue?

Inclement weather the past month have taken down power lines.

Hey, Cindi.

I want you to get the footage to Tech.

I want an image of that license plate.

- Okay, I'm on it. - We're doing everything we can.

Yeah, well, I'm not asking you. Cindi, take care of it, understand?

- Understood. - Okay.

Have we been able to identify our Jane Doe yet?

We're still waiting on Dimmy for the dental records.

All right, well, as soon as you do, you come to me directly, understand?

- Understood. - Okay, look, hey.

I don't want this woman's name,

or Officer Mochetto released to the public yet,

because we will have a shit storm on our hands.

There is a serial killer on the loose, folks.

Oh, lieutenant!

If you don't already know,

or if you haven't met, this is Lieutenant Trusten James.

He's helping with our investigation.

I need all the photos from the crime scene

and all the evidence that you have as soon as possible.

Let's go.

Who's this Trusten James?

He's a maniac cop obsessed with the Skulleton.

Supposedly him and Cyphers grew up together.

He's a fucking liability.

Hey! What the hell are you doing?

- I just painted that! - Fuck you, old man.

- What? - Stop being such a bitch, old man.

Are you kidding me? You know, I know both of your parents.

I did your mom!

Loser.

What is this?

Whoa!

Nikki! Come look at what I found.

If we get caught, uh...

Is that not what we stole the masks for?

I mean...

Dude, you are so lame.

I'll call you later.

Whatever. I'll hang out by myself then.

Nikki?

Is that you?

I swear, you better not be messing with me, man.

What are you doing, Mom?

Nothing.

Doesn't look like nothing.

I'm watching.

With a shotgun.

You think it's him, don't you?

I don't know who killed that man, but I'm not taking any chances.

Why did you write the letters, Mom?

I needed it to be over.

And I don't expect you to understand.

I don't.

I had to be sure he was gone.

Long time, Dimmy.

Detective.

I'm so sorry about Lynn.

He was a really good friend.

Thank you.

Yes, he was.

Listen, I need you to run these through your database.

See what you come up with.

Okay.

But I won't be able to get to this until at least tomorrow.

Why?

I owe the LT all the backup on that Jane Doe case.

And it's a court order.

Damn, I kind of need it today.

I understand. Uh, my hands are tied.

I'm the only one in this department.

Dim, it's for Lynn.

It's all the evidence I have from the crime scene.

All right. I'll see what I can do.

Thank you.

Where are you going now?

Gotta go question the witness.

Just do the best you can on it.

Call me when you're done.

- All right, will do. - Thank you.

Hello?

Detective Cyphers.

Deep Ridge Police Department, I'm coming in.

Hello?

Hello?

- Cyphers. - It's Cindi.

Sam Marrin's not at the hospital.

She didn't check in for her shift at the ICU at Mather Medical.

Shit.

She didn't show up yesterday either. Is she at her home?

I'm not sure.

- I'm about to find out. - Cyphers, are you there?

- I'll call you back. - Cyphers, don't go in there without...

Detective Cyphers.

Anyone home?

Thought I collected that.

You did this to all of us.

- Why? - Why?

I did this for a lot of people.

And I would do it for you too, but you're not gonna make it.

I was lost.

He was lost.

We're the same.

I made a promise to mother,

the day she died, that I would find a meaning in my life.

That I would find meaning in Lee's life.

'Cause she never once...

She never once, ever gave up on her only son,

so how could I?

Mom! Mom, what do I do?

Mom!

What do I do?

Sorry. I'm sorry.

Oh.

I can't believe you guys ate all the mac and cheese.

Would it gross you out if I used your fork?

Yes.

I know.

I know you.

Do you remember

that time dad tried to install the new sprinkler system?

That one summer?

When he completely messed up the input and output lines

and he wound up dousing dirty water all over those stuffy neighbors next door.

I'm the one who had to go make peace with the stuffy neighbors

at the end of the day.

Your dad had a way about him.

First time I ever really smiled was with him.

Forgive me.

For your own sake.

I'm not asking you to understand me.

Just forgive.

I forgive you for eating all the mac and cheese.

I love you.

I love you so much.

I love you too.

You think someone could go through something so bad that they...

never recover from it?

I think you need to talk to somebody, bud.

Talking about mom, asshole.

I mean, we don't know what she went through in her childhood.

I've never even heard her mention her dad's name.

Not once.

You ever heard her talk about her mom?

When she does, it's morbid.

It's cryptic.

Dad knew.

And he still loved her.

Dad kept those letters from mom.

For reasons we'll never know.

Yes, dad loved her.

Do you need help?

Uh, no, I'm... I'm good, thank you.

All right.

You know what I do need help with?

Figuring out what the hell I'm gonna wear

to the annual Halloween fundraiser for Lisa's students.

Shit.

The only upside of you breaking up with that girl

was the fact that we didn't have to do that anymore.

You're going.

You, me, mom.

I'll bring fucking Coco if I have to.

By the way, it's tonight.

- Are you serious? - Yeah.

Tonight? I don't leave my bedroom.

And we have to wear costumes.

Masks or whatever. Something.

Fuck that.

Connor, you asked if I needed help.

And I need help. Okay?

God, I must really love you.

No, you know what?

I love Lisa.

I'll do it for Lisa.

- I'll take it. - Yeah?

Can I help you, sir?

You better move along, mister, or I'll call the police.

I said I'll call the police.

Don't you come near me.

I mean it.

Don't come near... Don't take another step closer to me!

- Detective Trusten James? - Go.

This is Officer Burke from the Deep Ridge Falls Crime Lab.

We weren't getting anywhere

with the prints Cyphers dropped off in Fink's case.

Okay.

We've been dealing with individual counties

that have sub registries that are unlisted,

but state mental institutions

keep their own records of fingerprints on individuals

that may or may not appear on the national registry.

When we cross referenced with the state institutions,

we got an immediate hit.

A 100 percent match on an inmate at Creedmoor.

You got a 100 percent match?

100 percent match.

It's Lee Morris, the Skulleton.

Lee.

Lee, it's me, your sister.

All the letters I wrote...

Please, Lee, don't do this.

No more.

They don't deserve it. Okay?

Let's go. Let's get out of here.

No one even has to know that you're here, Lee.

Come on.

I can control this inside me, Lee.

I know the pain that you're in.

I always try my best, okay?

I can help control you.

I know you're a good person.

And I just miss you. The old you.

Come on.

Come on.

Yes. Go.

I'm proud of you. Come on.

Come on.

We'll get through this.

Whatever she did to you,

you need to know that you were just a child.

We were just having a fun day.

Stop beating yourself up.

You've taken this too far. Too far.

No one deserves this.

Okay?

I know you're not out there. Come on, Lee, come on.

Look, we gotta go.

Come on. The car's close.

Come on.

I love you. Come on.

My car's right here.

I'm gonna drive us to a new state.

He looks like the Skulleton.

Uh-oh!

- I've got you. I've got you. - Take him out with the knee chops.

- She could. - Not like the dads who are out here.

They're tough competition, you know? They're so cute.

That little one in the unicorn?

Ah!

Yeah.

- You're good. - How do you do that, Lis?

- Yeah? - Yeah. She's got moves.

Let's do the Titanic thing.

Did you hear that, boys? I got moves.

Give me the scoop. How's it going?

He's a pretty handsome cowboy, right?

- He's all right. That one? - Yeah.

Oh, this old guy?

Yeah.

- You're still a better dancer. - That's my man.

Oh, I don't know.

Than I will ever be on the ice.

Who do you think goes down first?

Definitely Connor.

Dance with me, son.

How are you doing that?

Let's see, let's see.

Oh, dang.

That's... wow.

That was amazing.

That was so humiliating!

Oh, man, we gotta get you a bus. She messed you up.

Come on. You should have called me sooner.

Shut up. And get me to Moira Cole's house.

Hey, man, let me call it in. This is not gonna happen.

It went in and out.

I'm fine, there's no time. Let's move.

Did you see when my legs went out like that?

- You did great. You did great. - You're so dumb.

- I tried. - You tried.

Better than you.

Oh, come on.

How long did it take you to train them to do all that stuff?

I taught them everything they know.

I know. That's right. They have a great teacher.

Something's wrong.

What is it?

Mom. Nothing is wrong.

Something's off. I did not leave the garage light on.

Mom, you were out there for four hours today.

- I know I did not leave it on. - Mom.

I did not leave it on.

Maybe Coco triggered the sensor.

No, I would not have turned it on.

And I didn't.

Okay, I'll check it out.

Mom,

please stop.

It's okay, Moira.

We'll be fine.

Mom?

I just got her back in my life, okay?

- Please don't mess this up. - I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, I know.

It's okay. He's gonna check and...

it was a great night.

I'm just gonna check something downstairs.

I'm so sick of this shit.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

It's okay. She knows what she's doing.

It was a great night.

- Yeah. - I had a lot of fun.

Me too.

You think you should go check on her?

Yeah, I probably should.

Yeah.

- But... - Mmm.

Okay.

- Go check on her. - And then...

- Go. Go, go, go. - All right, I'm going.

- I'll be right back. - Don't go anywhere.

Coco!

Coco.

Come here.

Coco, what do you got down there?

Not again. Not again.

I'm in the garage.

You have to put me through to Detective Charles Cyphers.

It's Lee Morris.

He's gonna get my whole family.

Okay.

Michael!

Open the door! Mom!

Come on!

Goddamn it! You coward!

Open this fucking door!

Lisa?

Lisa!

What is it?

- What is it? - It's him.

Okay, you need to get out of the house now.

You understand me? Now!

Go!

Michael!

Michael!

This is Lieutenant Trusten James.

I need backup and a bus at the Cole residence now.

Oh, shit.

- Drop the weapon! - Get down on the ground!

Connor. Connor.

Michael.

- Drop the weapon! - -Get down on the ground!

Michael.

Lisa! Lisa!

Lisa.

Mom.
