Come on, Adrian.
Maybe he's not home from school yet.
Adrian!
It's Detective Linden!
If you're here, open up, please!
Mrs. Clarke, where's Adrian?
We need to talk to him right away.
Well, he doesn't want to talk to you.
He doesn't need any more reminders
about what happened to his father.
Please, just leave him alone.
Please, Mrs. Clarke, this is very important.
Maybe if you ask him if he wants to talk to us?
- He's not home. - You sure about that?
Whose backpack is that?
That's his.
But he always calls me the minute he gets home.
That's the rule. Adrian?
Could he have left, gone to a friend's house?
No. He's supposed to stay here until I get back from work.
Adrian? Honey?
Adrian?
Adrian?!
He's not here.
The back door was wide open.
Hey.
Where's mom?
Just... wanted to spend some time with my little girl.
Mom said it was okay.
How was class?
Fine.
Do you like the new teacher?
That's jazz class. This is ballet.
Oh.
Do you love her?
Who?
The woman from work? With the hair.
Mom told me.
That's great, you know?
We were supposed to tell you together.
Listen, just so you know,
it's got nothing to do with you.
I don't know if you could understand this...
but I can't be something that I'm not.
I'm tired of it.
Listen. But I will always love you, honey.
Always love you.
I will always be the same person you've known all your life.
Nothing's gonna change that. Whatever happens.
Oh, my God, dad! Everything's gonna change!
Not my love-- not my love for you.
Then why are you doing this?
Lieutenant Skinner.
It's a 20-minute walk home.
He let himself in, dumped his backpack in the hall,
somebody came in and got him.
Or the guy was already in the house waiting for him.
But either way, Adrian is gone.
So it's been what? An hour, hour and a half?
- Neighbors see anything? - So far, no, nothing.
Jimmy?
We got the wrong guy. It's not Joe Mills.
What are you talking about?
He killed Angie Gower.
That's the body that we found in the car this morning.
And now he's got Adrian.
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
Slow down. What are you talking about?
Mills is in custody.
We just filed charges against him today.
- It's not him. - It's a cop.
Come here. Come here.
Wait. W-what are you guys talking about?
What the hell are you talking about?
I know this is gonna sound crazy, Loo,
but there's a lot of things pointing to Reddick.
Okay, listen. I know you guys had your differences, you know?
It's not that.
Just hear me out.
He was the one that took Bullet's final phone call.
- He tried to dump the Ashley Kwon case... - Right.
...on Jablonski, a total incompetent.
Reddick knew the first victim. He lived next door to her.
He never told us anything about this.
He loses Angie Gower at the hospital
before the sketch artist gets there.
Angie was killed yesterday.
And now Adrian's gone. He is tying up loose ends.
Okay, where's, uh-- where's Reddick now?
We don't know.
Look, I know this is really bad timing.
It's bad for the department and for you.
You think I give a shit about that?
Okay, look, you guys cover the scene here.
Look for the kid. I'll track down Reddick. All right?
Loo, I need to be the one to talk to him.
And I know he's got a girl on the side,
and I think I know where she lives.
No, no, you-- you two stay on the case here.
Look for Adrian. I got to send a car out for him.
No, I-I got to talk to him. He was my partner.
Even the more reason for you to step off.
- All right? Is that clear? - Yes, sir.
All right, now, we keep this quiet between the three of us.
And before we ruin a cop's life and reputation,
we want to make sure.
'Cause so far we don't have squat.
All right?
Detective Holder, we got something.
I promised that I would keep him safe.
Well, we're gonna find him, trust me.
Hey. Gonna be all right.
Adrian just knocked on the door
and asked if he could come in.
That was unusual.
Why-- did he say something
to indicate he was scared?
No. I mean, he's shy, uh... but...
He and Henry had had a couple of play dates,
but they didn't hit it off.
And, yes, maybe he was scared, I think.
What do you mean?
He said someone was following him.
Did he describe the person or know who it was?
No. I mean--
I just thought, because of what happened to his dad,
that he was upset,
and that maybe he didn't want to go home to an empty house.
I didn't see anyone following him--
Wait. You didn't let him stay here?
I had a doctor's appointment, and Henry had karate,
so I-I didn't let him walk home alone.
I gave him a ride.
That was very kind of you.
Did you see anyone when you dropped him off?
- No. - Maybe someone parked in a car nearby?
I'm sorry. I didn't see anyone.
All right. Thank you.
I need that footage right away.
DOT's sending footage of traffic cams
between the school and Adrian's house,
also the neighbor's house.
Maybe we'll get a hit on Reddick's car. What's he drive?
Gray Crown Vic. Still not picking up his phone.
Yeah, you're not supposed to be calling him.
Whatever. Let's check the traffic footage.
Then I'm gonna take a drive.
Got a feeling where Reddick's holed up.
- Detective Holder? - Yeah, what up?
I'm Investigator Alvarez.
Guggenheim. Internal Affairs.
We need to speak to you, Detective.
About what?
- You just come with us. - What's going on?
Another time, boys. I'm working a job right now.
So are we, and you don't want to walk in there
in cuffs, do you, Detective?
Why are you stopping him? On what grounds?
I got this, Linden. I'll catch you in a few.
I'll call Skinner. He'll clear it up.
Any word from Skinner? He's not back yet?
Hey, Jimmy. It's me again.
I need you to call me back right away.
Holder's been taken by IA for questioning.
I really need your help.
All right, call me. Please.
You requested the traffic-cam footage, Sarah?
What?
For the missing kid, Adrian Seward.
Yeah, yeah, I did.
- This your kid? - That's him.
See this gray car in the background?
It shows up again... here,
near the neighbor's house he went to.
Have you seen Reddick?
Skinner needs to talk to him.
He's-- he's looking for him.
Oh, he didn't mention anything about that to me,
but then again, he was in a hurry to get out of here.
Skinner was here?
For a few minutes, then he took off.
Said something about a family emergency.
Can we blow up this car? Get a better visual on it?
Yeah, give it a shot.
Look, just call my supervisor.
He's gonna tell you what's what so I can get out of here,
and then you can go do whatever it is that you do.
It's come to our attention
that you're harassing your ex-partner, Carl Reddick.
What?
Is it true that you've made
numerous threatening phone calls to him and to his family?
No.
It seems you've, uh,
developed some sort of fixation with his daughter.
What, Reddick told you that?
You're serious?
Mind if we take a look at your phone?
As long as you don't mind the pictures
of me banging your mama last night.
You assaulted Detective Reddick in his own house
in front of his family-- is that correct?
Look, we had a little misunderstanding,
but we're cool, all right?
Go talk to him if you don't believe me.
Better yet, bring him in here,
and then we can all have a little tête-à-tat.
Yeah, well, Detective Reddick's
not the one under investigation here.
Maybe he should be.
James?
What are you doing?
Hey. What are you doing here?
Holder was taken by IA. I've been calling you.
They won't let me see him. You've got to get him out.
Yeah, I'll, uh-- yeah, I'll take care of it.
The traffic cams show
that there was a gray car stalking Adrian.
Here and-- and here.
Could be anyone's car. Doesn't mean it's Reddick's.
Right?
So after all this,
it really does come down to your career?
Your reputation?
Reopening the case would be too messy?
Yeah, you have no idea what I'm thinking.
Okay, so tell me because I don't-- I don't understand.
Just got to get out of here. Things have blown up with Jen.
Just-- just can't get into it right now.
James, right now we need to find this car.
- We need to find Adrian. - And we will. I promise.
I don't understand why you're not doing anything!
Because the case you and Holder made against Reddick
is appallingly weak and circumstantial at best.
Accusing a fellow cop without hard evidence?
I mean, I'm surprised at you, Sarah.
You used to be a thorough and careful detective!
Sorry you feel that way.
Listen. Wait, wait, wait.
I'm sorry.
I'm just having a horrible day.
I'm just trying to keep it together, you know?
And I believe you.
Of course I do. I believe you.
You need to call IA.
Yeah.
This is nice.
Bethany...
Bethany, come on.
Wait a second.
Wait, wait, wait, wait. Bethany. Come here. Come here.
Are you really leaving?
Just for a little while.
Just till your mom and I have worked things out.
Hey. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
Please don't go, daddy.
It's gonna be all right. Okay?
I love you, darling. I love you so much.
Hey. It's gonna be all right.
Okay?
I'll see you soon, okay?
Yeah.
- Okay? - Okay.
Yeah, it'll be all right.
That was awful. I'm sorry.
You want to see him alive, you'll come with me.
Hand over your weapon.
Where is he?
Where is he?!
Get your hands behind your back.
If you arrest me now, you'll never see him again.
He'll die out there alone.
Get in the car. Get in the car!
Shooting up with your CI's in '09.
Caught lifting meth from an evidence locker.
You're a bona fide tweak head.
I've been clean for over two years.
I got to get in touch with my partner, okay?
It's an emergency. Just give me two minutes on the phone.
You can talk to her all you want
once we're done here, Steve.
Look, if the reason I'm here
is because Reddick's been feeding you a bunch of BS,
then call Lieutenant Skinner
and he'll set you straight, all right?
I got to get out of here.
Hey, hey, sit down!
Reddick didn't file the complaint. Your lieutenant did.
Skinner?
That's right. So calling him ain't gonna do jack, Steve.
Open the door.
Open the door!
No, you haven't got anger-management issue.
- Not one bit. - Look, my partner's life is in danger,
you dumb son of a bitch.
Admit what you did to Reddick, Steve.
I mean, your own partner.
I thought you two were tight, loyal to the death.
When did Skinner file the complaint?
Right before we swooped you up.
So I don't think he's gonna come and save you now.
Look, worst-case scenario--
you'll sit in the tank for 48 hours,
see a shrink, and you're back at your desk.
What's the big deal?
All right. I might as well come clean.
Good. Good.
I guess it's just like the stress of the job
kind of got to me.
Reddick can be a mean son of a bitch--
I mean a real dick.
I planted a bomb in Reddick's car this morning.
You know the armory at the station?
It's four flash bangs light,
and that's just my ignition source.
And, Alvarez, I'd be real careful
scrolling through my phone right now.
You might just set it off, Holmes.
Bullshit.
Got about 35 minutes until it's gonna blow.
If I were you, I'd get my fat ass out of this room
and go get Reddick.
Where is he?!
Where the hell is that dickhead?!
I know you've got him in here!
Quit staring at me like a bunch of schoolgirls!
Huh?! Where's Holder?!
Reddick!
We're dealing with it, all right?
I'm taking my wife and kid bowling.
Next thing I know the entire bomb squad's all over my car,
- and you're dealing with it? - We couldn't take any chances.
Holder's an idiot. He's not Al-Qaeda.
- Jesus! - All right, calm-- calm down.
Why don't you go take a breather or something?
Where are your brain trusts getting your intel from, anyway?
You couldn't solve a crime if it fell out of the sky
and sat on your face!
My PBA rep's en route, so I suggest you pull
that tampon out of your ass and cut him loose.
You've reached the voicemail of Detective Sarah Linden.
Come on, Linden. Pick up your damn phone, all right?
You son of a bitch, you scared the crap out of my wife and kid.
Deedee's still popping Xanax.
It was a whack move, all right?
I had to get out of there. Look, I need your help.
Hey, pal, that is the last favor I will ever do for you.
You need professional help.
- Ray Seward's kid's gone missing. - What are you talking about?
I don't have time to explain, but I need you to find him.
Missing? How long's he been gone?
We got an APB out on him. We got units on the street.
Where the hell you going?
I got to go find the son of a bitch who set me up.
No, you want to see Adrian, you turn that off.
Shut up.
Now, Holder's a good cop.
But he'll be a better one
once he learns a little self-control.
You had him detained by IA.
You were getting too close too fast.
Never wanted this to happen.
Including kidnapping Adrian?
Where is he?
I understand how upsetting this is,
but your hands are trembling.
It's making me a little nervous.
Blowing my brains out right now is not gonna help anyone.
So...
We'll be there soon. Don't worry.
Yes. What is it?
I'm Detective Stephen Holder. Is your husband here?
Oh, for Christ's sake.
Don't you people know how to use a phone?
He's not answering his phone.
Well, he's not here. He left 20 minutes ago.
Where'd he go?
I don't know.
Listen, lady. You don't seem to understand.
I need to know where the hell your husband is right now.
Then ask his girlfriend,
and get your foot out of the door before I break it.
Wait. His girlfriend?
Y-you're talking about Detective Linden?
Yes. Her.
She was here? They left together?
Yes.
What is wrong with you?
Where's the lake house?
You had to take that case this morning.
That changed everything.
Now, why couldn't you walk away?
"Walk away."
Things would be different right now.
For both of us.
Well...
I don't expect you to understand.
Understand what? That you murdered 21 girls?
No, I don't understand that.
How could I understand that?!
How could anybody understand that?!
How do I even know that you're taking me to Adrian
or that he's alive?
You don't.
But I told you he was.
You used to trust me implicitly, Sarah.
This morning in your kitchen--
Don't do that.
I-I thought it was a beginning for us.
Don't do that!
I wanted to change for you.
And I thought I could.
'Cause I have been alone...
for-- for too long.
For too long.
And so have you.
So have you.
You and I are nothing alike.
You have reached the voicemail of Detective Sarah Linden.
Linden, pick up your damn phone!
...as soon as I can.
Call me back.
You think you know what this is, Sarah?
You don't.
The first one was an accident.
Her name was Brigitte. It was Brigitte Delahanty.
She was in the Junior Officers program.
Is that where you met her?
Reddick brought her in.
And I tried to help her.
Then one day she doesn't show up.
You know? And I go looking for her.
Now I'm missing my kid's softball game,
for Christ's sake.
And this little crackhead could give a damn.
Then I find her on the street...
high.
Turning tricks.
So...
So I make her get in my car.
You know?
She spits at me.
So I hit her.
I mean, it was almost a reflex.
And... she's bleeding now.
And she's looking at me...
with that face... with those eyes.
And, uh, now I know that she's gonna tell.
She's gonna bring me down,
destroy everything-- everything that I worked for.
So, I take her out to the woods,
and...
I don't remember much after that.
It was quiet.
What?
Afterwards.
I mean, she didn't cry, she didn't scream,
she didn't...
She...
She just...
She just looked at me.
You know, their eyes...
when they know that it's the end,
they look at you like...
like no one else.
Stop it.
When you go past the pain,
you pass the animal terror...
there's nothing else--
nothing else in the world like it.
But you're a father. You're--
You have Bethany. You adore her.
She's no different than...
than these girls that you killed.
They're just junkies, whores.
They're just a burden to their families.
I mean, they're everywhere.
They're under bridges,
they're just walking alone at night.
They're in cheap, amateur porn video.
And nobody sees them. Because nobody cares.
Just...
human garbage.
So you just killed them?
I saved them from the inevitability
of their lives.
You're a monster.
Maybe.
I don't know if this is anything,
but I'm at the foster mom's house.
I found something in the kid's backpack.
What?
Something he wrote for school.
"I don't want to be alone. That's what scares me.
If my dad does die, I want to be with my mom."
His mom's dead.
I know.
You don't think the kid would try and off himself, do you?
Nah, he's a kid.
He-- he probably meant his foster mom.
Yeah, that's what I thought. Just grasping at straws.
Okay. Let me check something out. I'll get back to you.
You went to kill Adrian that night.
Trisha Seward just got in the way.
No, no, no. I never meant to kill him.
No, the tree house was far from the water.
I wasn't sure how much he saw,
so I just wanted to talk to him, see what he knew.
That's all.
You went to his apartment at 1:00 in the morning.
To talk to him? Quit lying to me.
You went there to kill him.
No, if I wanted to kill him
I could have a dozen times.
But he didn't remember me.
I mean, that's when I knew that I was... I was free.
Until you kidnapped him.
Why did you take him to this place?
'Cause of you.
You said he was starting to remember.
You were helping him remember.
So, you left me no choice, Sarah.
Did you kill him?
Well, you know, I should have.
I'd be long gone by now.
I couldn't do it.
I don't kill children.
They're all children!
No. There's a difference between 6 and 16.
They were 12-year-old girls!
How do you do that?!
I don't need excuses.
What about you? What's your excuse?
Why are you here?
Hmm? Are you here for Adrian,
or is it because you need to understand
how you could have made love to me just a few hours ago?
Don't do that.
It meant something, Sarah.
Admit it. You loved me, Sarah.
Because I didn't know you.
No. But a part of you did. Part of you did.
What are you talking about?
No, you knew something. You knew something.
I mean, that's why you ended up in the hospital.
But you still loved me.
- Oh, you-- you bastard! You son of a bitch! - Hey, hey. Hey. Hey.
Don't you make this about me!
You're gonna kill us both. Sarah, stop!
- What are you gonna do?! - Stop! Stop!
Stop! Stop!
- Hit me?! Cut my throat?! Is that what happens?! - Stop it!
Don't touch me!
Just get away from me!
Just get back in the car!
Get back in the car.
Where is he?
Not far.
What is this place?
The lake house.
I wish you would have seen it in the daylight.
The water's beautiful.
Cold and deep.
Is this where you put Kallie?
Kallie Leeds.
The missing girl with the red hair.
You don't remember her?
You gave her ring to your daughter.
She had blue eyes...
and these little star earrings.
Are there more girls in the lake?
And other places.
No one will ever find them.
It's the loneliest thing in the world,
waiting to be found.
It's exhausting to hide, to pretend.
I don't have to pretend anymore.
Not with you.
And it was working out so well.
That Joe Mills, that waste of life.
I planted those rings. I put that girl in the trunk.
Perfect.
Her name was Bullet.
Yeah.
She called headquarters.
She thought she was being clever,
leaving a message for Holder.
"I know who it is."
So I had to go to her.
You understand?
I should have seen.
You didn't see because you didn't want to see.
Where is Adrian?
Get out of the car.
Adrian!
Adrian?
Where is he?
Where's Adrian?
He's been with us the whole time.
He's in the trunk.
Give me the keys!
Give me those keys.
Adrian?
You okay?
Yeah.
I'm a police officer.
It's gonna be okay.
Holder.
Give me the keys.
You know, those girls...
they weren't that innocent, Sarah.
You should have seen what they did with me.
Shut up!
Shut your filthy mouth, you son of a bitch.
Give me those keys.
I lied.
If there is one thing I regret...
it's killing that boy.
No.
Killing Adrian off, 'cause I don't-- I don't do that.
I don't kill little children.
Linden!
You okay, Linden?
Aah.
You okay?
We got him. Adrian-- he's alive.
Reddick found him. He's with him right now.
Adrian's alive.
He's fine.
Put the gun down.
Linden. Linden. Look at me.
He wants you to do this. Put the gun down.
Put the gun down, Linden.
Look at me, Sarah.
Look at me.
It's got to be you. You loved me.
- You loved me. You-- you love me. - Linden.
- It's over. - Look at me.
Oh, no!
No.
No, no, no.
