Julie, make sure you pack your science project
for your dad's tonight!
Alex!
Oh, hey. Morning.
You're ready early and making breakfast that requires
something more than a toaster.
What's the occasion?
I thought you'd approve.
Okay.
I do.
Cassandra's been pushing me to eat healthier.
High protein. Low carb.
Says it makes you feel better.
She's actually right.
Oh, yeah?
Go figure.
[sighs] You know,
you two have been spending
a lot of time together lately.
Can we officially call her your girlfriend now?
Or are kids these days not doing that?
How about we just call her Cassandra?
Okay.
Well, I'd like to meet her.Totally.
We should make that happen.
We should. Say...
tonight?
Julie and I are at Dad's.Well, how about
you and Cassandra come by here for dinner first,
and I'll make something special?I mean,
it's kind of late notice, she's probably got plans.
Why don't you ask?
I will.
Oh, you mean now?
Mm-hmm.Yeah, yeah.
I'll text her.
You promise you'll be cool?
I'm always cool.
[indistinct chatter]
JESSE: Careful where you step. Area's still a mess
from the storm last week.
Body washed down from up top?
Yeah, looks that way.
Deceased is Seaman Apprentice Ella Baird.
Reported missing a few months ago.
Yeah, she went for a hike and never returned.
Guess we know why.[camera clicking]
Morning, Commander Chase.
Not for some of us, I'm afraid.
TENNANT: Baird went missing three months ago.
She been out here that whole time?
Well, hard to tell.
I'd expect even more decomposition
if she'd been exposed to the elements.
So she was buried?
Almost certainly.
And probably
enclosed in some kind of protective covering.
Cause of death?
I'll need a proper examination,
but so far I've seen no evidence of foul play.
Other than being buried in the middle of the woods
in a protective covering.
Yes, other than that.
Well, we'd appreciate any information you can get us.
Her family's waited a long time for answers.
It's my calling.
Body probably washed down from up on that hill.
Yeah.
So, why is our team still down here?
Is there an issue?
I was explaining that the area up there
may be a crime scene, so we need access.
And I was just explaining that area is kapu--
off-limits to everyone, not just outsiders.
You're the Office of Hawaiian Affairs.
Ava Nakama. It's my job to protect
Native Hawaiian sites like this.
KAI: I understand, and it is our job
to investigate suspicious deaths wherever they may lead.
May I ask, why is this considered kapu?
It's a luakini heiau.
KAI: It's a temple
where sacrifices were made.[camera clicking]
Human sacrifices?
AVA: Humans and animals, yes.
It's a sacred place.
And I am sensitive to that,
but we believe the woman's body we found
may have washed down from that sacred place.
Do you all have to go?
Well, my team and I can go up first, take a look.
But eventually
these other folks will have to get up there, too.
In shifts.
It's the best I can do.
Okay. Thank you.
KAI: We will treat the luakini
with the respect it deserves.
Pau Pele, pau mano.
Forget something this morning?
Hey, where'd you find it?
Behind the couch.
You wore the other one here?
I was running late, but I had a backup shoe in the car,
so all good.
Backup shoe?
Yeah, don't you keep extras in the car?
Yeah, of course. Extras.
As in plural, not just one.
I mean, how do you even know
if you're gonna lose the left or the right?
Well, that's just a silly question.
ERNIE: Oh! Am I interrupting
a glass slipper situation?
Not at all.
Were you able to get into Baird's social media accounts?
Yeah, nothing suspicious. She wasn't very active online.
Yeah, I heard the same from her CO.
He said she was mostly a loner.
There's nothing wrong with being a loner.
She did hit one site a lot.
Baird was really into hiking.
Usually posted reviews and photos
on one of those hiking trails apps.
Her last review was posted the day she went missing.
She was hiking in Pu'u Konahuanui.
Oh, that's interesting.
Why is that interesting?
'Cause her body was discovered on the Kuaokala Trail.
Completely on the other side of the island.
[birds chirping]
KAI: Couple hundred years ago, this was a temple to Ku.
God of war.
There's a lot of legends of angry spirits
around luakini heiau.
JESSE: They actually sacrificed people here?
Well, the priests believed it would earn Ku's favor,
help the chief win battles.
Bet the ones being sacrificed weren't too hip to that idea.
I'd be an angry spirit myself.
Wouldn't joke about that. Not here.
Why? You worried the ghosts are gonna get us?
Are you completely sure they're not?
♪ ♪
Got something.
There's hair inside. Think it's our sailor's.
Baird might not be the only victim.
I'm seeing three mounds about the size of graves.
More bodies?
KAI: It's what it looks like.
We're gonna need to excavate them.
Hawaiian Affairs rep's not gonna like that.
It can't be helped.
We need to find out if they're recent or historical.
Think I just found the answer to that one.
♪ ♪
[indistinct chatter]
AVA: This is such a violation.
I'm sorry.
We're doing everything we can to protect the area.
Not your people. Whoever did this...
...you need to catch them.
Yeah.
That's the last one.
So, four victims in addition to Ella Baird.
Any idea what...?
One moment, Agent Boone.
Through your blessing, grace and guidance,
through the power of the light that streams from you:
May all the negative karma, destructive emotions,
obscurations and blockages be purified and removed.
It's the Tibetan Dying Prayer.
What?
I read.
You were asking if I know how they died.
I don't.
There are no visible signs of injury.
No bullet wounds, ligature marks.
JESSE: Could they have been wrapped up first
and buried alive?
Oh, I like the way you think.
Uh, it's possible.
But I'd expect to see more petechial hemorrhaging
if that was the case.
Any idea how long they've been here?
Well, I'll test to confirm, but I believe
they were all buried at different times.
Your sailor appears to be the most recent,
but the others span at least five years.
So someone's been disposing of victims here a long time.
Kapu area's a perfect spot for hiding bodies.
I guess we're lucky the storm came through.
Might never have found them.
You say luck, I say providence.
I get a feeling the spirits here
find this as disturbing as we do.
What, does she think the ghosts have shovels?
I'm telling you, man, wouldn't joke about it.
TENNANT: Any progress identifying
the other victims?
We just tracked down the last one.
LUCY: Susan Chan and Trent Watkins
had licenses on them.
She was from Oklahoma, he was from Idaho.
Both tourists?Yeah.
So were the other two.
We found them in the missing persons databases.
Michael Ianucci and Melanie Renaud.
She's French,
wasn't even reported missing for a couple of months.
Did any of them have a connection to Ella Baird?
Nothing except for how they went missing.
All were on solo hikes when they disappeared.
ERNIE: Not as unusual as you'd think.
Over 1,600 people go missing in national parks every year.
How much time between disappearances?
First one was
five years ago.
Second, year and a half later.
But barely six months between the last two.
TENNANT: So, they're increasing in frequency.
LUCY:Mm-hmm.
I know Commander Chase hasn't
determined cause of death yet,
but someone went to a lot of trouble
to hide those bodies.
And it seems like there's a ritualistic element
to where they were buried.
ERNIE: Hey.
So, the last guy we just ID'd, Michael Ianucci.
He was actually an airman with the Coast Guard.
TENNANT: Did CGIS investigate?
Oh, yeah.
They put one of their best agents on it.
A-Team, back together again!
Huh?
Jess, good to see you.
Yeah.Appreciate you coming
so quickly, Neil.
Well, time was of the essence.
Looks like we're looking at a serial killer here, huh?
It's a possibility.
Well, it's good you brought me in.
I'm kind of an expert.
Really? On serial killers?
I'm sort of the CGIS resident profiler.
I took a seminar at Quantico last year.
At the FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit?
At the Hilton, but the guys running it were former FBI.
Changed my life.
If you want, I could work up a profile
on our unsub for the team.
Oh, boy.Why don't you just share
what you know about Airman Ianucci's disappearance first?
Right. Excellent idea.
So, I did a pretty exhaustive investigation.
I'm exhausted just looking at it.
Ianucci was on leave in Hawai'i two years ago.
He told a friend he was gonna hike Waimano Falls,
and that was the last anyone heard from him.
You conducted a search?Yeah,
we found his phone at the base of a ravine, but no sign of him.
State Park Police thought it was an accident?
Yeah, that was the assumption at the time,
but I was never convinced.
Ianucci was a mountain climber.
He had plenty of outdoor experience.
So, you kept investigating?
Yeah, I did, and eventually I found a suspect.
I spoke to a woman who was on the trail
the same day Ianucci disappeared.
She said a scary guy
was following her. Really freaked her out.
And you think he could have done something to your airman?
Park rangers said he'd harassed hikers before.
They call him Joe. Nobody knows his real name.
He's just a-a vagrant
who lives out in the forests all over Oahu.
Did you question him?
Couldn't track him down.
Evidently, he's always on the move.
That would fit with the victims
all having been in different areas.
Let's send this sketch to the rangers again.
Maybe they can help locate him, and I have to get going.
Ooh, you got big dinner plans?
Meeting my son's new girlfriend, and I still have a meal to make.
JESSE: I'll get the sketch out.
Thanks.What about us?
You want to order some takeout, really dig in here?
[sighs] I wish I could, but the fam's expecting me for dinner.
Oh, great. Dinner with your family sounds awesome.
[sighs]
[front door opens]
Hey, Alex, sorry I'm late.
ALEX: No worries, Mom.
Okay, I got everything for the huli-huli chicken, so
it won't take me too long...
Hi.
Oh, Alex found some salmon, so we put that on.
Made a little mango salsa.
It's just about done.
Wow.
Um... you must be...
Cassandra. It's so great to finally meet you.
Yeah. You, too.
Everything smells wonderful.
Yeah, it's been a team effort. Alex is an incredible sous-chef.
Alex is so helpful in the kitchen.
Here, just relax.
Cheers.
It's fine, um...
Cass is 21.
21.
Oh, did you not mention that?
Pretty sure I did.No, you did not.
Sorry, I can totally put the wine away if...
It's fine. Um, I just...
So, um, does that mean that you're in college?
Actually, I skipped the whole college thing.
Just wasn't really my vibe.
So... what is your vibe?
Well, Cass is about
being open to new experiences.
Trying to do a lot more of that myself.
CASSANDRA: It's amazing how much you learn just
going where the feeling takes you.
Oh, yeah?Like,
my roommates and I,
we did this energy healing retreat last month.
Super last-minutething,
but it was life-changing.
ALEX: She's actually teaching me
a lot of the techniques. It's really cool.
I can show you, too, if you want.
It will change your life, seriously.
Is that right?
Um...
[clears throat] So... so, roommates?
Yeah, well, there's six of us. It's kind of crazy,
but rents are just so insane, right?
Okay, let's eat. We've got this, Jane.
So, just go ahead and have a seat.
Dr. Chase?
[door closes]
Are you here?
Hello?
Anybody here?
[gasps] The hamsa.
[sighs] A protection against evil spirits.
Oh.
That sounds useful.
It can be.
What can I do for you, Agent Tara?
Uh, I was...
heading out. I thought I'd see if you determined
cause of death.Well, there was
nothing out of the ordinary in the tox screens,
and no indications of external injuries,
other than some abrasions
and bruising on the extremities.
Defensive wound?
No, more consistent with injuries
that might have happened if they'd been running
and fell.
LUCY:You think they might have been chased?
I think that's something I can't possibly know,
and you will have to find out.
Okay, so no cause of death.
I didn't say that.
That's her heart.
Indeed.And I suppose there is
an excellent reason you're showing that to me
in a not-at-all creepy way?
While the decomposition makes it impossible to be certain,
I believe Ms. Baird and all the other victims
died of sudden cardiac arrest.
Their hearts stopped?
But they were all pretty young and healthy.
How could that happen?
If you want my very unscientific opinion,
it appears they were, quite literally,
scared to death.
TENNANT: Morning.Morning.
Hear anything from the State Park Police?Yeah, they say
this Joe guy who Pike suspects
is our "unsub" is still around.
Is he dangerous?
Yeah, sounds like it. Said he's become
increasingly erratic over the years.
Harassing hikers.
Destroying park property.
They know where he is?
Not yet, but they're looking.
And Commander Chase
pulled all the victims' medical records.
None had preexisting conditions that
might've led to cardiac arrest.
Okay, so we got a group of lone hikers,
all in good shape.
What else do they have in common?
JESSE: Not much.
Different ethnicities, different backgrounds.
Men and women.
It's an unusual assortment for a serial killer.
Maybe targeted simply because they were alone and vulnerable.
JESSE: Which would point even more
to this vagrant Joe. I mean, he's lived all over the island.
He'd know about the kapu area, too.
We need to find him.
Let's widen our net.
Search for similar deaths outside Hawai'i.
You think this killer's done it before?
We need to find out.
I'm on it, and I'll get with Whistler,
see if FBI's ViCAP has anything.
Or you can just ask Pike,
since, evidently, he's an "expert."
I will stick with Whistler.
So... how did last night go?
[sighs] Don't ever let your kids grow up. Oh...
New girlfriend that bad?
There's nothing bad about her. Cassandra's sweet.
A little naive.
She thinks she's got the world figured out.
Sounds like most teens.
Except she's not a teen.
She's 21.
Really?
Didn't think college girls
wanted to date guys in high school.
Oh, not in college. She skipped it, thinks it's overrated.
Cass is more of a free spirit who doesn't seem to have
a care in the world.
[chuckles]
Well, I can see why you hate her.I don't.
I just...
I could already see the influence
that she has over Alex,
and her life is a lot different
than the one he's been planning.
So, what are you gonna do?
Still trying to figure that out.
I mean, he is 18.
Well, if Gracie was 18
and started dating some guy in his 20s,
you can bet I'd tell her how I felt.
Would she listen?
Being a bad guy sometimes comes with the job, right?
[phone chimes]
Oh, looks like park rangers have eyes on Pike's suspect.
I got to go.All right.
Keep me updated.Always.
[door closes]
JESSE: So, this whole
ghost thing, you really believe all that?
I try to keep an open mind.
I've seen a lot of weird things.
Weird how?
Like, "I don't really know how
to explain what just happened" weird.
You have, too, haven't you?No.
Nothing I can remember.Oh.
Oh, right, right.
I mean, sure, maybe weird.Mm.
Doesn't mean it was a ghost or a spirit.
Well, what happened?
Nothing.
Dude, you brought this up. What...
Clearly, you want to tell me. What happened?
I was just trying to make conversation.
All right, fine.
There was this one time...I knew it. What?
We took a vacation in the Smoky Mountains.
Uh... whole family went camping.
Jake and I were out on the trail, just the two of us.
All of a sudden, I turn around, and...
he's gone.
How old was he?
Four.
I yelled for him,
looked... everywhere.
I couldn't find him.
[sighs]
That's scary.The worst.
For whatever reason, I-I started
thinking about my grandfather.
He died when I was, like, 15,
but he taught me everything about the woods,
and I just closed my eyes
and asked for help.
But you got it?
Yeah, when I opened my eyes, I just kind of knew...
the way to go.
I found Jake five minutes later.
Grandpa came through.
I don't know, I mean, probably instinct.
[chuckles]Or maybe
I heard something in my subconscious.
I don't know, something, but...
Dude, which one of us are you trying to convince?
This is your turn-off here.
[coughing]
Whoa.
I know, it smells incredible, right?
It's lemon and eucalyptus. It's all-natural. You want some?
No. I'm good. Are you sure?
Have you seen the bugs in these woods?
Joe's not the only killer out there.
Have you talk to the rangers yet?Yeah,
they spotted Joe about a half mile off the main trail,
but they waited for us to make a move.
Did you make your three wishes yet?
No.
Three wishes?Yeah,
because we had fettu-genie Alfredo last night.
It was just a little joke we had working at dinner.
Jess refused to make any wishes.
So, you had dinner at Jesse's?
Yeah, Heather's an amazing chef, man.
Her Alfredo, squisito.
Oh, yeah? Okay.
Hey, maybe one day I'll get invited, and I will find out.
Squad goals, bro.
Yeah.
He wasn't exactly invited.[chuckles]
Thanks for meeting us.STONE: Yeah.
Special Agent Boone. This is Holman.
Hey.How are you?
Good. If you guys want any chance of finding Joe,
we need to hurry.
Either of you had run-ins with this guy before?
Oh, sure. Yeah, most of us have at one point or another.
Joe's not all there. Few screws loose.
Dangerous?Can be.
Scares the hell out of people.
Yelling and chasing them off.
Yeah, that would totally fit my profile.
Profile?He means description.
Of our unsub.Unsub?
He means suspect. PIKE: Based on my extensive knowledge
of serial killers, we are looking for a white male,
35 to 60, highly mobile with anger issues.
Huh. Sounds like Joe.
Or every other serial killer ever.
KAI: How about we go find him?
Hey, Neil.
Exactly how long was this serial killer seminar you took?
Oh, it was one weekend,
but it was, like, very intense.
Very intense.
At this clearing, we might want to split up.
Cover more ground.
We'll follow your lead. You know the area.[grunts]
You know, John Wayne Gacy
buried his victims under his own house.
Yeah, Gacy was what we call a hedonistic type killer.
Wow. [chuckles] You really know your stuff.
Coast Guard handle a lot of serial cases?
Uh, I wouldn't say a lot...Look out!
Get the hell out of here!
Everyone okay?
Yeah. He's just behind those trees.
WINDELL: Put that weapon down, Joe.
We're State Park Police.
And federal agents.
You want to lock me up.
Joe, we just want to talk.
We need to ask you some questions, okay?
Put that thing down,
or we start firing back.
JOE: You wouldn't be the first to try.
Is that what happened with the woman in Konahuanui?
Was she trying to hurt you?
You know about her?
We know about the others, too.
JOE: I didn't kill anyone,
the kupuadid.
Like the mystical spirit?
Told you he was nuts.
JOE: I saw it with my own eyes. Like a nightmare,
head of a beast,
eyes as red as burning coals.
Tusks. It's out here now.
As in, presently?
It's everywhere.
Joe, we can help you.
We can keep you safe.
We just need you to come out.
Drop the bow, Joe!
[gunshot]Don't shoot!
JESSE: Joe, stop.
Where'd he go?
Damn it.
No, I don't know anything about her roommates.
Yeah, I know, but...
That's what I'm saying, Daniel,
and Alex will accuse me of not trusting him again.[knocks on window]
Hey, can we finish this later?
Okay, I will. Bye. Come in.[phone beeps]
Alex problems?Not a problem for him.
He's dating a 21-year-old and thinks
she's lots smarter than his parents.
Ah, young love. [chuckles]
I once dated a girl who convinced me to move
to a ranch in Argentina.
Ernie Malik, gaucho. [chuckles]
I'd pay good money to see that.
Ah, lasted three weeks. Wasn't my thing.
Though I did learn I was something of a llama whisperer.
You-you think Alex is doing this to antagonize you?
No, not at all. This isn't rebellion.
So, maybe give it some time.
Young love is rarely lasting love.
Sitting back and doing nothing's not my strong suit.
Can't argue that.
But you don't want to force Alex to pick a side.
Because I might not like the side he picks?
Okay, look, I...
I'm assuming that you didn't come up here
to discuss my son's love life.
[chuckles] I saw Jesse and Kai's report
on the guy in the woods. That kupuahe described.
Right, it sounded like he was experiencing
some delusional ideation,
possibly schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.
Could be, but what if he's not?
A kupua
is a mystical being in Hawaiian mythology
that can take on different bodies and shapes.
And, what, you're saying this one's real?
University's doing this big
mammal migration study in Konahuanui.
They installed motion-activated
cameras all over that area.
I got the footage from the night Ella Baird went missing.
What's that?
Wait for it.
Joe's kupua. I mean,
he might still be delusional. That could be him.
Or he's our only witness.
Either way, we need to find him
again and hold onto him this time.
State Park Police didn't know where his camp was.
He could be anywhere.
Then we're gonna need some support.
Let's take another sweep.
We'll come around from the east side.
Hold on, what's that?
Where?
Through that clearing.
Yeah, that could be him.
I'll geomark the location and have Kai meet us.
All right, let's nest this bird.
Can't you just say "land"?
All right, we got to be careful.
Even if Joe's not the killer, he's dangerous.
Best chance is to take him quick.
Pike, cover us. PIKE: Yeah.
He's not here.
He must be close.
Forest is huge. I'm gonna call for backup.
Guys. Guys.I'll loop Tennant in. Let her know that...
We're not gonna need backup.
So, these could all be additional victims?
Seems like it.
All were reported missing, like the ones here on island.
If they're all connected...
It means the killer's been getting away with this
even longer than we thought.[door opens]
These are the possibles you found on ViCAP?
LUCY: Yeah, Whistler also talked to
the experts at the Behavioral Analysis Unit.
Besides tracking down known serial killers,
they keep tabs on cases that
might indicate an unidentified killer at work.
I'm surprised BAU was willing to share.
Well, I did ask nicely,
and I promised you'd share back.
Of course. I'm just glad that
they didn't try to take the case away.
They did try.
And you convinced them not to?
Well, I may still be new to the Bureau, but
office politics are my jam.
All right, what do we have?
Five cases of hikers who went missing when out alone.
All occurred anywhere from five to ten years ago.
Which would have been before our earliest victim here.
LUCY: Right, the timeline fits.
But no bodies were found, so the Bureau wasn't even sure
they could be classified as homicides.
Means the killer stayed under the radar
for over a decade.
It has to be someone knowledgeable about
wilderness areas.
We've cross-referenced
guides, workers, volunteers,
anyone who might have worked in multiple locations
where the victims disappeared.
Including state and federal park police?
Checked the national database,
but, so far, no one working one of the older locations
is here in Hawai'i.[phone buzzing]
Unfortunately, all of these are different
jurisdictions, and a lot of the records aren't digitized.
Chase has something.
Keep at it.
Hey, Carla.
Thanks for getting on this so fast.
Yeah, of course. We were able to ID your victim.
His prints came back as...
Joseph Hoffman.
He was Army.
CHASE: In and out of treatment for years
after he was discharged. Possibly found some peace
in the forest.
I hope so.
What can you tell me about his death?
Abrasions on the hands and arms indicate a scuffle
before he died.So, he fought his killer?
Yes, and it wasn't any angry spirit.
I was finally able to do a full lab workup.
Mr. Hoffman and the other victims
were, indeed, scared to death,
but they had help.
Testing showed he had extremely
high levels of dihydroxyphenyl- methylaminoethanol
in his system.That's a mouthful.
Adrenaline, a naturally-occurring hormone,
which is why it didn't show up as unusual
in the tests on the previous victims.
How high a level?
Oh, massive. As if it was injected into his system.
Not fatal by itself, but resulting
in rapid onset of hypertension and tachycardia.
Sending the body's fight-or- flight response into overdrive.
Could be why the killer uses the mask--
to terrify his victims.
Accelerating their heart rates to catastrophic levels.
Their fear is his high.
And this is why I don't worry too much
about restless spirits.
The real-life monsters are scary enough.
PIKE:What exactly are we looking for here?
Anything the killer might've touched.
If we can find DNA or a print,
we may be able to identify him.
I'll start processing the area around the tent.
Where's his bow and arrows?
He would've kept those close, right?
That's a good point.
Yeah, they're not here.
JESSE: Could mean the killer actually
found him somewhere else in the woods.
And Joe ran and made it back to his camp before he died.
So, this might not be the crime scene.
Okay, why don't we split up, search the area?
Maybe we'll find it.Right.
Let's split up and go in different directions.
That way, the killer can pick us off one by one.
I'm kidding.
Please, we're federal agents with guns.
[chuckling] I'll take the high road.
Try sitting through a whole dinner with him.
[sighs]
Do federal agents
take a class on how to write excruciatingly boring reports?
For most of us, it comes naturally.
I'm not finding any connections
between the victims. Some of the same
social media apps, but none of the same friends.
Nothing in their backgrounds,
jobs... I'm sorry, am I excruciatingly boring, too?
Yeah.
Oh, I mean, no. You're the least boring person I know.
Nice save.Look at this.
These are the physical copies of the two oldest cases
that the FBI sent over.
They were never digitized.
Blasphemy.
The first disappearance was ten years ago
in Utah. There's a witness statement
from a park maintenance worker
who was the last person to see the missing woman.
Bryson Stone. Mm-hmm.
He was never a suspect, but take a look
at this case in Colorado a year later.
One of the employees who was first on the scene
was a park guide.
B. Stone.Think it's the same person?
Let's find out.
Changing jobs would've made it
harder to connect him to all the disappearances.
Here he is, Bryson Stone.
What's he doing now?
ERNIE: He's moved up the ladder a few rungs.
Stone's with the State Park Police,
right here in Hawai'i.
Kai.
I think I found it.
Oh, I got you.
Kai, you got an evidence bag?
I'm gonna need that back.[grunts]
I found his phone, but no Pike. He's gone, boss.
We got no sign of him. Should we put out a BOLO?
Can't risk it. Stone has a police radio
with him.JESSE [over phone]: He'll kill Pike right away
if he figures we're on to him.
Hey, we're gonna find him, okay?
Any luck tracking Stone?
No signal. He must've turned his phone off.
LUCY: There's a thousand back roads
through the parks on the island.
Stone knows them all.
He could be anywhere. Anything from the State Park Police?
They confirmed Stone's vehicle has GPS.
They're trying to locate it.
Yes, I'm here. Give it to me.
Jesse, Kai, we might have something.
Got him.
He's in Konahuanui.
Sending the coordinates now.
[grunts]
Not such a know-it-all now, are you?
Get away from me.
Oh, we are just getting started.
[screams]
[pained grunts]
I'm gonna cut you apart
piece by piece.
No.
I know what you're doing.
You're a thrill killer.
You're process-focused and organized.
You want me to feel helpless.
What I want you to do
is run!
[screams]
[sighs]
[panting]
They're not here. Come on.
[panting]
[gasps]
[heart beating rapidly]
STONE: Don't stop!
You stop...
you die.
[screams]
I warned you!
Run!
[groans]
[heart beating rapidly]
This is... what he wants.
Come on, Neil.
Get it together.
You're a special agent of the United States
Coast Guard!
[grunting]
[pained groans]
[gunfire]
It's okay, buddy, we got you.
[groans]Deep breaths. You got to calm down.
[Pike gasping]
PIKE: Wait, wait.
My profile...
was so right.
[laughs] [chuckles]
Come on. [grunts]
We just finished at Bryson Stone's apartment.
He was one twisted ranger.
The mask and machete kind of gave that away.
It was basically a serial killer smorgasbord.
BDSM magazines, disgusting videos.
Ugh, I feel like I need a shower.
Ugh.
Scary how long he got away with it.
Even scarier to think how much longer he might've kept going.
But do you notice how it wasn't any "angry spirits"
that took Stone down?
I mean, it was just good old-fashioned police work.
Yeah, maybe, or...
maybe they were pulling some strings behind the scenes.
Right.
Hey, all I'm saying is,
it doesn't hurt to show some respect.
PIKE: Guess who just got a clean
bill of health from the doctor.
Apparently, I have the heart of a 20-year-old.
Well, I'm glad you're okay.Thanks.
[zips bag]
Hey, um...
I just want to say thank you so much
for being there for me today, buddy.
You, too, Kai.
It's what we do.
Hey, you up for a drink to celebrate?
Sure. KAI: Hey, I'm in.[phone chimes]
Jesse?No, not me. I got to take a rain check.
[laughs]
This is hysterical.
Did Heather send you the meme of the chihuahua with the wig?
No, she knows I hate those.Wait...
Why? Did she send it to you?Yeah.
This is even funnier than the one she sent this morning.
[laughs]
You're texting with my wife?
PIKE: Oh, yeah. She's actually
gonna set me up with one of her friends. Marcie?
She sounds incredible.
LUCY: Ooh, that is
so great. You two should totally go on a double date.
What? No...KAI: Hey, if it goes well,
maybe you could all go away for, like,
a whole weekend or something?
Mm-hmm. So, tell me all about this Marcie.
So, she's into true crime, so I've got a perfect icebreaker.
Think those spirits may not be too happy with you.
No, you don't ever have to worry about that.
Okay, I am here for any questions you may have.
Yes.
Okay.
Again, I am so sorry for your loss.
Bye.[phone beeps]
You didn't even make it to your car.
Father of one of the victims called me on my way out.
Felt like he deserved my full attention.
Kind of glad that's your job and not mine.
You know, I think of it as a privilege,
speaking to the next of kin.
Because it is a constant reminder
to appreciate what we have.
Said like a true stoic.
I'm not sure I consider myself stoic.
Oh, no, it's-it's a good thing.
So, why doesn't it sound like it?
Stoics have been terribly misunderstood.
Like me, back in middle school.
They accept misfortune
because it teaches you not to take for granted
all the good things in your life.
All right, well, see, that
I can get on board with.
See? Stoic. Mm.
Still not feeling the word. [chuckles]
They also believe that going naked in the cold
and starving oneself build character, so...[laughs]
...not a perfect philosophy.Okay.
[door closes]
Hey, tiger.
Hey. [keys clatter]
Doing some homework?
Nah, it's just something Cass read.
She thought I might like it.
Well, what do you think about it?
It's cool.
Not very far into it.
So...
So...?
What do you think of her?
Cassandra? Mom.
Right.
I'll be honest, her age threw me...
It shouldn't matter. I'm 18.
But...
she clearly makes you happy.
And that's what really matters.
[phone buzzing]
So, you like her?
I do.
Great, 'cause she's here.
Now? Mm-hmm.
Her text says she's bringing a surprise.
ALEX: Hey.CASSANDRA: Hey, handsome.
Hi, Jane. Hi.
I hope you like cream puffs.
I got a whole box from Liliha.
Who doesn't love a good cream puff?
[exhales]
