isn't distinct enough to run down.

It matched to the DNA from the toothbrush.

Anything from the doll? - Two latent prints.
One of a child's, presumably Grace's.
The other of her father's, Ben Harris.
- So that's a dead end.
- Not necessarily.
Something popped when we ran her dad's fingerprints.
- What do you mean? - On the surface, Ben is clean.
But he changed his legal name 13 years ago.
He has a sealed juvenile record
and a past felony conviction.
- For what?
- Murder.
When he was 12, he killed a ten-year-old girl...
In the woods.
- Same crime, same location.
Could just be an ugly coincidence,
but let's see what else you can dig up!
We need to know who this little girl's father really is.
- Ben Harris was born Corbin Howard.
He grew up in the Bronx.
He was raised by his grandmother
until he was convicted of murder as a juvenile.
He was 12 years old.
He spent six years at the Horizon Juvenile Center
in the Bronx.
He was released on his 18th birthday.
- Well, that is an odd coincidence,
but we really think it's relevant
to his daughter's disappearance?
- Well, there are some similarities between the cases.
You wanna...
- The victim's name was Lucy Parkin.
She and Ben went to the same summer camp
in the Catskills in July of 2000,
and witnesses said that, on the day of the murder,
he lured her deep into the woods, away from the group,
shoved her off the side of a cliff.
She fell 28 feet, died a few hours later.
- Okay.
Is there any evidence
that actually suggest he's involved in this current case?
- Well, nothing concrete,
but he was the last person to have contact with Grace
before she went missing.
And he also has a sealed psychiatric record
from his time at Youth Authority.
- Right.
HIPAA laws prevent us from seeing what was in it,
but if he was struggling with mental illness,
being in the same environment as the original trauma,
it could've trigged him, sent him down a dark path.
- All right.
Have Maggie and OA go question him.

you're gonna tell me everything that you know right now.
- Ray's always been obsessed with this guy,
Corbin Howard,
the one who killed his sister.
He talked about him all the time,
how he'd get back at him if he ever saw him again.
All that.
But it was just a fantasy.
Ray hadn't seen the guy in 15 years
until a few weeks ago.
- What happened a few weeks ago?
- Uh, Ray was at the courthouse for a parole hearing,
came back saying he saw the guy.
Said he's a hotshot lawyer now
and changed his name like nothing ever happened.
But he makes a lot of money,
so Ray had this idea
to kidnap his kid, make him pay,
but then things got out of control.
He started talking crazy, I--
- Hang on, hang on, slow down. Out of control how?
- He started talking crazy and took off with my car.
- What kind of car? - A Subaru Impreza, black.
Look, I thought it was just a money thing.
I swear I didn't know Ray was gonna kill the guy
after he got paid.
[cell phone ringing]
- That's the fourth time he's called.
Everything okay? - It's fine.
- I don't believe you.
- Well, we have more important things
to be worried about right now.
- One sec. - [sighs]
- Mr. Harris.
- What's going on? You find something?
- We need to talk to you and your wife.
- Do you know where Grace is?
- No, we don't, but can we come inside?
- I don't think that's a good idea.
I thought we made this clear.
We want to handle this on our own.
- Mr. Harris,
we have evidence that the kidnapper is Ray Parkin.
- Lu--Lucy's brother.
- Yes.
- Mm-hmm.
- That's not possible.
How does he even know who I am?
- Well, he saw you at the courthouse a few weeks ago,
tracked you down; he's been stalking your family,
and we think he followed you to the cabin last night.
- No, no, no, no. I can't believe this.
It's been 20 years.
- Mr. Harris, we'll do everything we can
to protect your family,
but we need you and your wife to work with us.
- No, no.
I can handle it on my own. Thank you.
- Ben, this guy despises you.
- But if I give him the money and tell him what happened,
how sorry--
- Then he will probably kill you and your daughter.
That's the truth.
Either way, we need to sit down with Rhonda
and explain the risks. - No! No.
She can't know about this.
- That's not our problem. - You said it earlier.
It's not your decision. I'm Grace's father.
- And Rhonda is her mother,
and she will get a say in how this goes down.
We will not let you compromise your daughter's safety
to protect your secret. - That's not...
That's not what I'm doing.
- Hmm.
- I'm just trying to get my daughter back.
That's all.
- Either you tell her,
or I do.
- Okay, fine.
I'll do it.
- How could you hide this from me?
- Rhonda, it was 20 years ago. You--
- Is that supposed to exonerate you?
- No, I just--
I wanted to move forward, to leave it in the past.
- It's not in the past, Ben!
That girl's brother kidnapped our daughter!
- I don't know what to say. I'm sorry.
- Sorry?
What the hell good is that supposed to do?
- Hey.
Mrs. Harris, I know this is a lot to process,
but right now we need to focus on getting Grace back.
- He's gonna kill her. - No.
We're not gonna let that happen.
- But you need to let us handle the drop.
We're gonna have a team on-site, snipers--
- How could you do this to us? - Rhonda...
- I need some air.
- This could've waited until after.
- No. We had no choice.
We had to tell her.
- You don't know that.
[tires squealing] - What was that?
[sighs] Damn it.
Rhonda took off.
- She took the phone and the money.
She's gonna do the drop on her own.
♪
- Rhonda Harris is in the wind.
Left the hotel with the ransom money
and the phone they've been using
to communicate with Ray Parkin.
He did not relay the location of the ransom drop
by the time she left,
so Ben does not know where she's going.
So what about Ray?
Where are we on the BOLO with the roommate's car?
- Went out a half hour ago. No hits yet.
- We cannot let Rhonda go to a meeting
with Ray on her own.
We need a location on her now.
- Hey, OA got a tracker onto the Harris's car an hour ago.
- Okay, throw it up.
- She's heading into the city.
- Hey, Maggie, Rhonda Harris just crossed
the Cuomo Bridge, heading south,
Head back toward the city.
We'll keep you updated as you go.

Please, don't punish my baby for Ben's mistake.

Your husband was supposed to be here, not you.

No, no!
[sobbing] No! - Hey! Come here.

He's the only one who knows where my daughter is.
- Mrs. Harris, it's gonna be okay.
We're gonna find her. I promise.
We are gonna find her. It's gonna be okay.
- [crying]
- Ray Parkin was killed at the scene.
Looks like he arrived by foot.
No sign of the roommate's vehicle.
The only lead we have
is a key we found in his pocket.
Number 118. could be an apartment number,
a hotel room... - A storage unit?
- Yeah, start digging.
See what types of facilities are within a walking distance
of the meeting spot.
In the meantime,
Scola is sending us data... from Ray's burner phone.
Here we go.
Uh-huh.
- That, I may be able to work with.
- It's the ransom photo. - With one key difference:
These images aren't cropped like the one Ray sent Ben.
You can see more of the background.
- Uh-huh. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Looks like a hotel room.
- Crimes Against Children
maintains a database of hotel rooms.
They use it to track down sex traffickers.
- Uh-huh, so if we run the photo of Grace
against that system...
- We might be able to find out where it was taken.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[beeping]
- We got it. The Halewood Motel.
