00:00Of course, it's this one.
00:19Merry Christmas to me.
00:27Hello?
00:30You made it.
00:47Yeah, it wasn't pretty, but I'm here.
00:54Come here, have a seat.
00:57Look, I've been doing this for a minute.
00:58I've seen no source but this.
01:03You got a different kind of kink, huh?
01:15Atta girl.
01:15So, you want to pay me the rest now, or did you have something else in mind?
01:30Something else.
01:31You got state secrets?
01:56You really want to know?
01:57Uh, not if it's going to make me blush, no.
02:01Yeah, no, you're not ready for this heat.
02:03That is definitely a pass for me then.
02:06Uh, yes, please.
02:10You know, I can eat your toast.
02:11It's all yours.
02:12I'll take that.
02:14All right.
02:15I got to go.
02:16Me and Kylie are meeting up early to go over this chemistry midterm.
02:18Uh, who's Kylie again?
02:20Dad.
02:21Say hi to Kylie for me.
02:24And, um, can I get a ride in city tomorrow?
02:27We got the day off.
02:28Teacher development.
02:29Teacher development.
02:30What, they're not fully developed yet?
02:32Apparently not.
02:33Hey, what's going on with your personal statement for your application?
02:37I'm still tinkering.
02:39Ty?
02:40But look, I'm telling you, don't slouch on this.
02:43Okay?
02:44This is college.
02:45It's about your future.
02:46I got it, okay?
02:47I do.
02:50Just wish you'd believe me.
02:52Thanks for breakfast, Dad.
02:59So I tried to call my sister back again this morning.
03:01Let me guess.
03:02She didn't answer.
03:03No.
03:04I mean, it's been weeks since I've heard from her.
03:06Uh, you guys should listen to this.
03:08Oh.
03:09Good morning, Kylie.
03:10Right.
03:11Sorry.
03:12Yes.
03:13Good morning.
03:14I've actually, well, I've been here a while.
03:15Okay.
03:16Just hurry up.
03:17Uh, okay.
03:18So, it's my turn to work at Tip Line last night.
03:19Mostly nuisance calls.
03:20You guys know how it is.
03:21But there was one that actually seemed very legit.
03:24Right.
03:25Her name's Gail Burke.
03:26Retired EMT.
03:27She's got commendations up and down her file.
03:28Not a kook.
03:29Let's hear it.
03:30For the past week, I've been seeing this strange guy go in and out of the community center
03:35of the block, and that place has been closed for months.
03:38Also, I saw a few girls go in at odd hours, but they never came out.
03:42Now, I called the NYPD, and no one followed up.
03:45Somebody ought to check it out.
03:46Maybe the FBI will, just for peace of mind.
03:49So I called her back.
03:51Seems credible, if she's right.
03:53All right.
03:55Grab your jacket.
03:57You want me to come with?
03:59Why not?
04:00See your fish.
04:01Oh, okay.
04:07Looks like the project stalled out in May.
04:10The developer says they had security cameras, but they shut them down months ago.
04:14All right, girl.
04:15All right.
04:16Split up.
04:17Kelly, take left.
04:21They wereksenacwerts.
04:22But the development is when Mr. Tavoti said, it wouldn't call me the outside yet…
04:24You go?
04:25They got a lot ninja meters for me as I usually call?
04:28You don't buy anything?
04:30You want?
04:31Maybe one finger bag to go?
04:32Actually onehehe.
04:33All right?
04:34Where did you?
04:35We're talking about latex time?
04:36Well, what about Halo?
04:37Maybe what did you ask if I could ask a Athletic?
04:39You go right?
04:40I know this question.
04:41You will get some info on him in, and of course take me off.
04:43You'll get in my box.
04:44Hey, I mean, it's clear someone's been using this place as a crash pad.
04:58I mean, you can tell your tipster she was right.
05:00Okay, we'll check security cameras in the area, see about these girls she said came through.
05:04Mm-hmm.
05:04There should be another door here.
05:14Well done, Kelly.
05:23What is that?
05:26Decom.
05:42Found the source of that smell.
05:44So much for peace of mind.
05:56Neck abrasions on all three women is consistent with manual strangulation.
06:01They all look pretty fresh.
06:02Body decomposance stages ranging from last week to last night.
06:07The most recent Vic has got defensive material beneath her nails.
06:10She fought back before he crushed her windpipe.
06:13Okay, we'll get that DNA tested, processed, and see if it matches anyone in our database.
06:18Hey, Ma's back.
06:19This looks like a brand.
06:21It's cauterized.
06:22The initials B, C.
06:28I think our guy did this?
06:30If he did, it wasn't recent.
06:33All right, let's get this back to the jock.
06:35See if they can make anything of it.
06:37Thanks.
06:38Yeah.
06:38Remind me to never underestimate the tip lining.
06:43This is where great instincts go.
06:44Thanks.
06:44All right, tell us about our three victims.
06:46Yeah.
06:47Fingerprints ID them as Jacqueline King, Hyacinth Duffy, and Vesper Green.
06:52All in their early 20s.
06:54All sex workers with multiple solicitation charges in New York.
06:57And all strangled to death within the last week.
07:01With no signs of rape or sexual assault.
07:04So we may have a serial killer on our hands.
07:06Does that MO match any active cases in or out of state?
07:09No hits in BICAT, but BAU is generating a profile as we speak.
07:12And the neighbor described the suspect as white, around 6'3", and driving a dark-colored SUV.
07:16We get eyes on any possible vehicle matches.
07:18No such luck.
07:19It's the residential section of Washington Heights, so whole block is a dead zone.
07:23All right, what about fingerprints found at the scene?
07:25Found plenty, but nothing popped up in Next Generation ID.
07:27What about defensive wounds?
07:29Any skin cell DNA under the fingernails of the most recent victim?
07:31We ran the sample, but there were no matches in the system.
07:34All right, then we work our way backwards through the VIX.
07:37These girls were sex workers' rights, and it's the reason our killer picked them up at some point.
07:40Can we figure out where?
07:41Based on arrest records, they all work to the street.
07:44No online escort services or profiles.
07:46One of the women, Vesper Green, has a branding on the inside of her wrist.
07:51Just ran it through the database.
07:52That mark is tied to a known pimp, Buddy Cook.
07:56Cook's currently locked up at FCI Ridgeberry, but his girls like to hang outside a bodega on Roosevelt Avenue.
08:01So within a week, our suspect has strangled three women in our own backyard.
08:04This guy is on a spree.
08:06I want him ID'd now.
08:07Yes, ma'am.
08:08Let's get Skola and Eva over to Roosevelt Avenue.
08:10Maybe somebody saw him scoop up Vesper.
08:11So, Skola, you got any special holiday plans?
08:21Oh, Nina wants to host, you know, do it all for once, the whole shemang.
08:26What?
08:26It's not your vision?
08:27Hell, our family's just kind of a lot, you know what I mean?
08:31Yeah, I'm trying to explain to my mom why I'm so single over Christmas.
08:34What?
08:35Crick!
08:36Oh, here we go.
08:37Special Agents Ramos and Skola, FBI.
08:48It's hard enough without you people.
08:50Look, we're not the cops.
08:51We're not trying to jam you up, okay?
08:53We just have to ask you a couple questions.
08:54Yeah?
08:55About what?
08:56Well, there's somebody out here targeting women in your line of work, all right?
08:59We just need a little help.
09:03You work for Buddy Cook?
09:04I don't work for anybody.
09:06Hey, you know you're right, Charlie.
09:08You don't gotta tell them nothing.
09:10Thanks, Des.
09:10I got this.
09:12Do you know this girl?
09:14Her name is Vesper Green.
09:18Maybe, yeah.
09:20What's going on?
09:22Did something happen to her?
09:24I'm sorry, but we found Vesper's body this morning strangled to death.
09:27What is this?
09:38It's, um...
09:40It's Vesper.
09:40They said...
09:41They said she's dead.
09:43Murdered.
09:43Along with two other women, also sex workers.
09:47I take it you guys were close.
09:49We looked out for each other.
09:51Well, did you notice any suspicious men lately?
09:53How about all of them?
09:54Look, can either of you recall any time she might have talked about somebody that was acting strange, client, fight?
10:02Fights happen all the time.
10:04It's, uh, what do they say?
10:06Occupational hazard.
10:08That's why we started working in pairs.
10:09Was anyone working with Vesper the last time you saw her?
10:13Yeah, uh, Vesper was talking to some white dude.
10:16Left in an SUV.
10:18Looked like it hadn't been washed in, like, ever.
10:22Pretty sure Effie was with her.
10:25He picked them both up.
10:27All right, so the super confirmed, if you saw Effie O'Rourke go into this apartment a couple hours ago...
10:39Hit it.
10:46FBI!
10:47Hey, get off!
10:47Hey, hey, hey, what is this?
10:48Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
10:49Drugs on the ground.
10:50On your knees.
10:51Hey, hey, sir.
10:52Effie?
10:54Effie?
10:54You're gonna be okay.
10:56She tried to drug me!
10:57Stop talking!
10:57She tried to drug me!
10:58Stop talking!
11:12Brandon Krawchuk.
11:13Says here that you're a project manager at Iron State.
11:16High-end contracting firm.
11:19It's a respectable job.
11:21No priors.
11:21How'd you end up in this mess?
11:22Three girls.
11:24What Effie was gonna be your fourth?
11:26Wait, what?
11:26What do you...
11:27What do you think I did?
11:29You gonna play dumb?
11:30Okay.
11:31We'll just wait for the DNA match.
11:32DNA?
11:33What are you talking about?
11:34Here are the photos of the three sex workers that you strangled to death and threw in a freezer.
11:40We can link every one of their murders to you.
11:42Wait, hold on.
11:42I have never seen these women in my life!
11:45That's not what we heard, according to an eyewitness.
11:47This girl, Vesper Green, her, and Effie O'Rourke, the one that we caught you beating, were picked up by the same John.
11:52White, male, 30s, around 6'3", and they were driven off in a dark SUV, just like the one that you own.
11:57That proves nothing.
11:58Half the city drives a dark SUV.
12:00Look, whatever they saw, it wasn't me.
12:06And besides, I don't pick up prostitutes.
12:08That girl Effie, she picked me up.
12:10You do understand that lying to the FBI is a federal crime.
12:12I'm telling you, I am not lying!
12:14Then you better start talking.
12:18I stopped at O'Brien's after work.
12:20Couple of beers.
12:21This girl sits down next to me, and she comes on really strong.
12:24Like, she wants to party.
12:26Why not, right?
12:27We get back to my place, we hook up a little, and then she sneaks away to make drinks.
12:32That's when I caught her trying to roofie me.
12:33So then you started to beat the hell out of her.
12:35When I confronted her, she grabbed a knife, okay?
12:38You guys didn't see that part.
12:41Look, she tried to drug me.
12:44And, yes, I lost control.
12:48But if you need proof, test my DNA, or whatever,
12:51it will show that I was nowhere near those girls.
12:53You'll see.
12:54I'm innocent.
12:55You're far from innocent, Brandon.
13:02What do you think?
13:03I hate to say it, I think he's telling the truth.
13:05Yeah, but you saw what I saw.
13:08You would have killed that girl if he didn't show up.
13:10Yeah, he's a piece of work,
13:11but BAU's prelim profile says we need to look for somebody who's antisocial,
13:16who has a lifelong hatred for women.
13:18I mean, he was making eye contact with me the whole time.
13:20He wanted my approval.
13:21Okay, so maybe the profile was wrong.
13:23There's one way to find out.
13:24Let's hold him, and we'll get an STR analysis in the morning.
13:27Okay.
13:32Hey, morning.
13:33Hey.
13:34I'm afraid Maggie's hunch was right.
13:36Our killer is still out there.
13:38The DNA found under Vesper's nails was not a match for Brandon Krawcheck.
13:42Flat tracks.
13:43I had Kelly dig into Brandon's credit cards.
13:44He was in Boston the last two weeks.
13:47At a work site, his manager confirmed it.
13:48Oh, and ERT found traces of her hypno in a broken glass at his apartment.
13:53So Effie did try to drug him.
13:56There's something about this case.
13:57The closer we look, the blurrier the picture gets.
14:00Yeah, well, Effie got released from hospital, so let's talk to her.
14:02Maybe she can help us figure out what's what.
14:04Yeah.
14:04You know, Effie, we can't even imagine what you're going through.
14:10A lot of my days are tough.
14:12The hell, the cops care all of a sudden.
14:15Well, you're lucky we found you when we did, Effie.
14:19Okay?
14:19We know that you tried to drug Brandon Krawcheck before he attacked you.
14:24Okay?
14:25There is somebody that's killing girls like you.
14:29All right, we're here trying to piece that together.
14:32What do you mean, like?
14:33A serial killer.
14:37Vesper Green and two other women were found murdered.
14:46It's him.
14:47Who's him?
14:48This John, he picked us up, me and Vesper.
14:54He paid me to drug that guy.
14:57He paid you to drug Brandon Krawcheck?
14:59Yeah.
15:01Did you catch him?
15:02No, that's why we're here.
15:04Look, we need your help.
15:06You just said that he picked you up and your friend Vesper Green, right?
15:11Is there something that you remember about this John?
15:14Like, did he give you a name?
15:15No, he barely spoke.
15:17And he paid a lot.
15:19A thousand up front and another a thousand when the job was done.
15:23What was the job?
15:24Go to the bar, take Brandon home, drug him and take his wallet.
15:28What did the John want in the wallet?
15:30He showed me a photo of Brandon, told me where Brandon drinks after work.
15:34But, Brandon was not the bar the first night and it was a lot of money.
15:39And so I tried again.
15:40And once I got the wallet, I was supposed to meet the guy in Washington Heights.
15:45That's where you found them.
15:58Isn't it?
16:01Effie?
16:02Was Vesper supposed to steal something too?
16:16After that, the Kree picked us up.
16:19We all went to the diner.
16:21Effie, he spoke to me and Vesper in separate booths.
16:27Where was the diner?
16:30You don't have to convince me, Effie's story is far-fetched.
16:33But her description of the John who hired her matches the description of our killer.
16:37Same for the car he was driving, so we were chasing that Frisbee.
16:40All right, we got eyes on the diner.
16:42Effie said her and her friend were taken to.
16:43Got two, but the cameras only cover half the parking lot.
16:46Well, that'll have to do.
16:47Eyes up for a dark SUV, right?
16:50Hey, yeah, got something.
16:512.22 p.m.
16:53All right, all right.
16:54Man exiting a dark SUV with our two women.
16:56I can't see the plates.
16:58All right, but that's definitely Effie and Vesper.
17:00So who's the guy in the dark blue hoodie?
17:02They only need one frame, right?
17:04We need the seven reference points to get an ID.
17:06Just hold on, let me try something.
17:08Yeah, I think I got it.
17:11Update to our FaceRex software.
17:12It can pull from different angles to get a composite.
17:15Got it.
17:16Okay, folks, eyes up.
17:18Warren Stroud.
17:19Let's get to know each other.
17:20Talk to me.
17:21Looks like he lives out of town.
17:22Current address is in Elkins Park.
17:24Philadelphia.
17:25Yeah, he lost his trucking job post-pandemic.
17:28Recently declared bankruptcy.
17:30I'm also seeing divorce documents filed by his wife, Janice,
17:33but they have yet to be finalized.
17:35Okay, any reason given for the divorce?
17:38Wife claims she got her husband with multiple sex workers.
17:41Uh, okay.
17:42So maybe Warren's redirecting his anger for his misfortune at sex workers.
17:46Could be blaming them for his downturn.
17:49So how does stealing the guy's wallet fit into all of this?
17:51What's the connection to Brandon Krawcheck?
17:53Maybe Warren paid these other girls to steal things before he killed them, too.
17:56Some kind of twisted ritual.
17:58But no, we need another piece to this puzzle.
18:01Okay, we've been pouring over Warren's financials.
18:03His card was charged at a Bronx motel last week.
18:05Okay, right before the murders began.
18:07Yeah, get this.
18:08That motel, ten minutes away from the community center where we found the bodies.
18:11Get Skoll and Eva there now.
18:12FBI, open up!
18:39I'm coming out!
18:40Don't shoot, please!
18:46Up against the wall.
18:50All right, we're all clear.
18:52We're looking for Warren Stroud.
18:54Who are you?
18:55I'm his wife.
18:56Will someone please just tell me what do you think he did?
19:07We believe that your husband has murdered three different women here in New York, all sex workers.
19:14This is insane.
19:17But Warren would never do anything like that.
19:19He's not a killer.
19:20He's a good man.
19:21Janice, you divorced your husband because you found him cheating on you with sex workers.
19:26I did.
19:28But it's complicated.
19:30What's complicated about it?
19:33You know that something is wrong with your husband.
19:38He's on lithium and anti-seizure meds.
19:41He's sick.
19:42Okay?
19:43He needs help.
19:44He needs my help.
19:45Been in a spiral better part of a year.
19:48Lost his job.
19:50I found him with a prostitute.
19:53There were others.
19:55Him doing that?
19:56Bringing whatever they gave him back to our bed?
19:59No.
20:01I left.
20:04But I...
20:04I still care about him.
20:08Okay, so how did you end up here at this motel?
20:12He's been here before.
20:14Left me a message two nights ago.
20:16Sounded like he was on an upswing.
20:17And so I drove him to the city to find him.
20:20You still got the voicemail?
20:21Can we hear it?
20:27We are at the precipice of true destruction.
20:30I love you so much.
20:33This world is gonna burn.
20:35And I'm holding the match.
20:37And it's lit in my hand.
20:38And it doesn't hurt.
20:40This day of reckoning is so close.
20:43I can't wait to see it all in ruins.
20:46That sounds like more than a spiral to me.
20:50Since we split up, he's been alone, isolated, staring at that laptop.
20:55Who knows what he's doing on that thing?
20:57Okay, we're gonna need to get that down to the chalk.
20:59I'd like to stay here in case Warren comes back, if that's all right.
21:04I'm sorry, Janice.
21:05This is a crime scene.
21:07Well, then I'll take another room.
21:10I want Warren to see my face first.
21:13No matter what happens, he owes me that much.
21:15Okay.
21:18We'll get some undercover officers posted outside.
21:21And if he calls you, you'll be the first to know.
21:27This world is gonna burn.
21:30And I'm holding the match.
21:31And it's lit in my hand.
21:33And it doesn't hurt.
21:35This day of reckoning is so close.
21:38I can't wait to see it all in ruins.
21:40Okay, stop it there.
21:41So, precipice of destruction, day of reckoning.
21:43Does that sound like a guy who's off his meds?
21:45Yes.
21:45Yeah, but what I mean is, that's not just a guy off his meds.
21:49That's a guy who's planning something, right?
21:50His wife said that Warren is online day and night.
21:53So what if these women that he killed, what if it's a part of some kind of plan?
21:57Were we able to track Warren's phone?
21:58He must have turned it off.
21:59Last ping is at the community center the other night.
22:01Right.
22:02All right, maybe we're looking at this the wrong way.
22:04Maybe it's not a psychosexual serial killing.
22:06Maybe it's part of some doomsday plot.
22:09Okay, let's talk this through.
22:11What do we know?
22:11We know Warren picked up this woman, Effie.
22:14Paid her $1,000 to steal this guy, Brandon Krawcheck's wallet, and bring it back to him.
22:19Which is weird.
22:21But if it is a whole plot, did he kill these women to use them in the same way?
22:27To get them to steal from the actual targets, and then he killed the women off to cover his tracks.
22:33We can look at the recent NYPD robbery reports.
22:35Yeah, filtering for male victims who claimed to have been robbed by female suspects over the last week.
22:39All five boroughs, all ages, let's cast a wide net.
22:45Take us through it.
22:46How were you robbed?
22:47I was watching the ball game at Finnegan's, just minding my own damn business, when this girl came and sat at the bar.
22:52And then what happened?
22:53She started flirting, like, real suggestive.
22:57Thought it was my lucky night.
22:58Then I jumped to bring her back to my place.
22:59Believe it or not, but it's been a while since I had company.
23:05Do you see the woman who approached you in these photos?
23:07That's her.
23:08That's the crazy girl that roofie me.
23:10Redhead.
23:11That's her.
23:12Yes, her.
23:14She seemed so pleasant.
23:16And you were certain that you were drugged.
23:18Did you get a tox screen?
23:19No, but I'm sure she must have slipped something in my drink.
23:22This one minute we're raising our glass to a chance meeting, and then I woke up in the morning.
23:26Things were going great, and then I woke up in the morning.
23:30She felt like I took a brick to the face.
23:32What did she steal from you?
23:34My laptop.
23:35My work lanyard was gone.
23:37She took my damn keys.
23:39For your home, car.
23:40And then some.
23:41Like, I'm a fleet manager over at NYEP.
23:44New York Eastern Power.
23:45She took facility keys, substation key fobs, all gone.
23:49Boss is pissed, and I look like an idiot.
23:51What would she want with your work lanyard?
23:53I'm a third-generation IBEW.
23:54I run operations for every NYEP substation in Manhattan.
24:00Was this a personal laptop?
24:01I wish.
24:02I'm a civil engineer at Ford Michelson.
24:04There was very sensitive information on that computer.
24:07What kind of sensitive information?
24:09My firm won a big contract for doing seismic updates.
24:13Big infrastructure projects.
24:15Including Eastern Power facilities?
24:17Sure.
24:18Schematics.
24:19All kinds of info on that laptop.
24:21And you only need two things to access any Eastern Power facility.
24:25One, a company truck.
24:26And two, a working key card.
24:28But of course you wouldn't know how to navigate the site unless you had the blueprint stolen from the third target.
24:32So what are we saying?
24:33Warren is threatening some sort of attack on the city's infrastructure.
24:36Okay, so let's, uh, warn Eastern Power there could be a security breach, and let's mobilize NYPD to all its facilities, yeah?
24:45The only thing we haven't figured out is how Brandon Krawchuk factors into this.
24:48We need to get his wallet's evidence, see what he's got worth taking.
24:51All right, let's get somebody to MCC.
24:53Uh, Brandon's lawyer bonded him out two hours ago.
24:55What?
24:56Wait, if Warren needed something from Brandon and didn't get it, Warren could already be after him.
25:01Get Maggie and O.A. to Brandon's apartment now.
25:03I got a body.
25:33It's Brandon.
25:35He's dead.
26:03Awake!
26:11Go.
26:33Dover Ward!
26:49Hands up, and get down on your knees.
26:51Now!
26:53It doesn't matter.
26:56Think he can prevent the day of reckoning?
26:58The clocks will be reset.
27:15You murdered three women, Warren.
27:17You had them drug and rob three different male targets.
27:21Where are the stolen items that you killed for?
27:23The silent treatment is not going to work.
27:25We have already tied your DNA and your fingerprints to the three victims.
27:30They won't be the last to die.
27:32Well, you are in here now, so how's that going to work?
27:35Oh, things always settle out in the end.
27:38Sometimes you just need to give them a little push.
27:41So there's a plan, something you need to push.
27:43Is that what you're saying?
27:44Jeez, I don't know what I'm saying sometimes.
27:47Your wife is here, in the city.
27:51She said she was worried about you.
27:53If you say so.
27:55Stolen keys, a stolen lanyard, a laptop.
28:00What's it all for?
28:01What's the plan?
28:02The plan hasn't changed at all.
28:05You said that the clocks were going to be reset.
28:09What's that all about?
28:12Warren, what do you want?
28:14I want what we all want.
28:19To live free.
28:20We are free.
28:22And so were you, until you killed those women.
28:24I'm not.
28:25You aren't.
28:27We're all trapped.
28:30It's the one thing we have in common.
28:34Whose words are those?
28:36I don't think they belong to you.
28:37You working with somebody?
28:41You have no idea what I'm capable of.
28:44Who are you working with?
28:45Admit that you're trapped.
28:48I'm tired of this.
28:50You can't see it, we got nothing to talk about.
28:53You're going to remember this conversation with the judge signed your death warrant?
28:56You can't threaten me.
28:58I may be locked up now, but soon there will be no prisons.
29:02Well, it finally hit the post.
29:07What post is that?
29:08Post Society.
29:16Hey, Ty, where you guys at?
29:18Me and Kylie just went skating, and we're going to grab some lunch.
29:21You're still giving us a ride back later, right?
29:23No, look, I'm going to need you and your pal to head home.
29:26I can't tell you why.
29:27It's a work thing, so I need you to take it seriously.
29:29Come on, Dad.
29:30Yeah, really, sorry.
29:32All right, we'll head back.
29:36Tyler, what's going on?
29:39Call me when you get home, okay?
29:41I love you.
29:44My dad wants us to head back.
29:49So I dug into Warren's phone.
29:51He is very active on a private telegram server,
29:54similar to the telegram channels used by domestic terrorists.
29:57It is very grim stuff.
29:59Accelerationists preaching about doomsday.
30:01Accelerationists, so what are we talking about, a hate group?
30:03Well, these people, they hate the world.
30:05Their channel isn't tied to any racist ideology.
30:09They call themselves Third Testament.
30:11And they're not religious extremists?
30:13Far from it.
30:14The only god that these people bow down to is chaos.
30:17They believe that violence is the ultimate motivator for change.
30:21Now, Third Testament was founded by this man, Chip McCaffrey.
30:24And have we tracked him down yet?
30:26Don't need to.
30:27He's dead.
30:28Killed in a fire after a standoff with ATF in 2022.
30:31Right.
30:32The prophet is gone, but his son lives on.
30:34And these message boards, they are just an echo chamber for his members to provoke each other
30:39into committing more extreme acts of violence.
30:42And it looks like Warren took the bait.
30:44It appears that they goaded him into committing a lone wolf attack on Manhattan's critical infrastructure.
30:50Right.
30:50Well, Eastern Power deactivated all the stolen items, and the RT did a full sweep.
30:54They found nothing.
30:55What about Brandon Krawchuk's wallet?
30:59We never found it.
31:01What if he wasn't in that apartment alone?
31:04Goes there with the partner, kills the guy.
31:06And hands the wallet off to his partner.
31:08Right.
31:09Warren stays back to deal with the body, and we bust in.
31:12Brandon Krawchuk is a project manager at Iron State Contracting.
31:14That means he doesn't have access to demo materials.
31:17Heavy machinery, explosives.
31:21We need to find out who Warren has been in contact with.
31:24Let's get his wife in here.
31:25Yeah.
31:32Hey, bad news.
31:33Janice Stroud just bolted that room she checked into.
31:36It was empty.
31:36She must have slipped away, and she powered down her phone.
31:39All right, we've got to find her now.
31:40Boss, you should see this.
31:41Uh, 20 minutes ago, one of the stolen Eastern power trucks pulled into this construction site.
31:48That's the construction site where Brandon Krawchuk works.
31:50Okay, so Warren Stroud is in custody, so who is driving that truck?
31:53Uh, got another angle there.
31:55Well, at least we found her.
32:02All right, folks, Warren Stroud is not working alone.
32:05Janice Stroud, his wife, is working with him.
32:07She just stole this truck like they had planned, and is likely trying to finish what he started.
32:11I don't believe she's done.
32:12How much do you want to bet that duffel bag is full of explosives?
32:15Yeah, we still got eyes on that truck?
32:16No, no, we're still looking.
32:18All right, everyone should be scrubbing.
32:20We need to find that vehicle, and somebody call Eastern Power.
32:22Make sure those stolen key cards are deactivated, yeah?
32:24I'm on it.
32:25Jubal, looks like the truck just crossed a toll on the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel.
32:30Okay, what does Eastern Power have near there?
32:32The Metropolitan Grid substation.
32:34It uses insulating gas to protect high-voltage equipment.
32:37It's just a few blocks away.
32:40All right, get a team there right now.
32:44Hey, Dad.
32:45Hey, Tyler.
32:46What's going on, buddy?
32:47Had a great time.
32:48You on the train?
32:49We were about to, but, look, you always said if I saw something that looked off, I should call you.
32:55Uh, yeah, sure.
32:56What'd you see?
32:57Kylie and I were headed to the train just now, and we heard gunshots.
33:02Tell them about the guys.
33:03And then we saw two guys rush out of the van and head into this building.
33:06They had guns and a big rolling briefcase.
33:08Uh, where, where is this?
33:10We're on Hudson, like four blocks away from your office.
33:13Uh, okay, I'm gonna have somebody check it out, but I need you and Kylie to get in a taxi right now and go home.
33:18Do you understand?
33:19Okay.
33:20Okay.
33:21Yeah.
33:21Okay.
33:22You did good, Ty.
33:23Call me when you're home.
33:25Skola and Eva just landed at the substation.
33:32Skola, that's the truck.
33:33All right, Jubal, I got eyes on Janice.
33:41She's held up as a gay with the key card.
33:43We're moving in.
33:47Janice, the FBI, all right?
33:49I need you to step out of the truck slowly with your hands in the air.
33:53She's headed for the Transformers.
34:13Everybody, get up!
34:15Get up!
34:16Get up, go!
34:20Skola, back down!
34:23Okay, we got the live feed off from the substation.
34:29Okay, here we go.
34:31There's Janice.
34:33Where's she going?
34:34Keep, keep an eye on her.
34:35Yep.
34:36Jubal, we got an active shooter.
34:38Send backup.
34:39Who's our shooter?
34:40Kelly?
34:40Yeah?
34:40Who's our shooter?
34:41Uh, not getting any hits, Jubal.
34:43Okay, I got Janice.
34:44She's entering the substation.
34:53Whoa, is that...
34:55PBX, polymer-bonded explosives, and not just a single serving.
34:59Skola, Eva, you there?
35:03Whoa!
35:05All right, Jubal, tell me you're up on this place.
35:08Yeah, we're patched in.
35:09We've got your eyes.
35:09Our suspect is in possession of PBX explosives.
35:12How much?
35:13Enough to take down the whole damn substation and more.
35:16She's currently attaching it to the gas line.
35:17We know where that is?
35:18Where is she?
35:19Transformers, they're on the second floor of the tower.
35:21All right, she went to the second floor.
35:23Get up there when you can, safely.
35:27We need more boots on the ground.
35:29Yeah, on it.
35:30Oh, I dispatched a team to check something out nearby.
35:32Why?
35:33Tyler's in the city.
35:34He saw two men run into a building with guns.
35:36Where?
35:37Uh, Hudson, right here.
35:39We haven't heard back from the team yet.
35:40No, negative.
35:4060 Hudson, it's a lighthouse.
35:42A building that houses all the fiber optic cable for the city.
35:45Every telecom emergency service line convenes at the base of that building.
35:49This isn't a lone wolf event.
35:51This is a wide-scale attack.
35:53They're targeting Lower Manhattan.
35:55Okay, we need backup to 60 Hudson right now.
36:04Alpha teams secure the area.
36:05The rest with us.
36:06Let's go.
36:07Let's go.
36:10Wait for the reload.
36:29Cover us.
36:29Now!
36:30Suspect down.
36:39Janice is on the west tower.
36:41Second floor.
36:42Where?
36:56She armed the bomb.
36:56Janice is on the west tower.
36:59Go, go, go.
37:00I'll get her.
37:08Away.
37:08Cut the blasting cap to neutralize the device completely.
37:11It's over.
37:28She's damn right, dude.
37:31It's all over.
37:32Oh, God.
37:40What the...
37:41What the hell just happened?
37:47Are you guys seeing this?
37:50Jubal, what the hell was that?
37:52How long does the generator kick back in?
37:54Should be coming up.
37:55You still got comms?
37:56Hey, Maggie?
37:56LA, can you hear me?
37:58Maggie?
37:59Jubal, can you hear me?
38:01Tom's are down.
38:07Somebody talk to me!
38:08Okay, okay.
38:08We've lost all contact with FDNY and NYPD.
38:12911 emergency line is also down.
38:14We're completely dark here.
38:15Nothing is responding.
38:16No traffic cams, no pole cams.
38:18Hey, cell towers are not responding.
38:20They could be down or could just be overwhelmed.
38:22Jubal.
38:22Yeah?
38:23They did it.
38:24What?
38:25They took down the city's entire fiber optic network.
38:27Okay.
38:35Okay, guys.
38:36Come on.
38:38Hey, you reached Tyler.
38:39I'm at you right now.
38:40Leave a message after the meeting.
38:42Come on, Tyler.
38:43Pick up the phone.
38:44Jubal, the cell network is crashing.
38:45You're not going to get through.
38:47Jubal?
38:48Jubal!
38:48Keep going, keep going.
39:10Oh, wait.
39:12Check him out.
39:13Keep going, you guys.
39:15Come on, guys.
39:16Get out of here, please.
39:17Hey.
39:19Hey, hey, hey.
39:20Can you get up?
39:21Can you get up?
39:22You're welcome.
39:23Everybody, let's go.
39:25Keep going.
39:26Keep going.
39:27We need help.
39:30We need help.
39:30We need help.
39:30We need help.
39:38That's it.
39:40That's it.
39:42That's it.
39:42Oh, my God.
39:45Oh, my God.
39:47Jubal?
39:50Tyler!
39:52Tyler!
39:56No, no, no, no.
39:58No, no.
39:58Tyler.
40:00Oh, God.
40:02Tyler.
40:03Okay.
40:04Tyler, listen to me.
40:05You're going to be okay.
40:06Your dad is here, okay?
40:07I need a doctor!
40:08Medic!
40:09Jubal?
40:11Maggie!
40:13Maggie, thank you.
40:14Maggie, please.
40:15I need to get him to the hospital.
40:16Get me a medic now.
40:16Okay, I'm on it.
40:21Wake up, please.
40:23Look at me, man.
40:24Tyler.
40:24Tyler.
40:26Please, please.
