00:00What are you doing here?
00:19I just want to see how you're doing.
00:21Never better.
00:24Right.
00:25Now if I come in, maybe we could talk.
00:26I heard you've been skipping physical therapy.
00:28So?
00:30Why do you care all of a sudden?
00:32I've been thinking a lot over the last few months about how I handle things between us.
00:38And I'm ashamed.
00:39My mama, she taught me how to beat a bigger man, and I fell down.
00:43And I heard you've been trying to make amends with people, and, well, this is me doing the same.
00:51With the help of your favorite breakfast burrito from El Plateau.
00:55Hey, do we have any vegan bacon?
01:17Oh, God, I hope not.
01:18What?
01:19I don't think so.
01:24I found the bacon.
01:25Fake bacon.
01:26Great.
01:29You don't have to eat any if you don't want.
01:31After work, I think we need to seriously finish unpacking.
01:35And by finish, I mean start.
01:37Oh, well, I mean...
01:38Sorry.
01:38Sorry.
01:39I think we're making progress.
01:43You know?
01:44Living in takes time.
01:46It only takes as much time as you let it.
01:48I moved constantly when I was in the army.
01:51Here's what I learned.
01:52If it's not unpacked in 48 hours, it will never be unpacked.
01:55If art sits on the floor longer than two days, it lives there now.
01:58Oh, we're well past that.
01:59I'm aware.
02:00This is killing you, isn't it?
02:03I think we should buckle down and get it done.
02:07Okay.
02:12I'm sorry.
02:13It's just...
02:14It won't feel like you've fully moved in until the boxes are gone.
02:20That's nice.
02:20Look, if we rush the process, we're just going to make a mistake that we'll have to go back
02:26and fix later.
02:26So trust me, if we move slowly and carefully, then it will be much more efficient in the
02:33long run.
02:34Okay.
02:38Yeah, the shelters were full and I just needed a place to sleep, you know?
02:42I really wasn't hurting anyone.
02:44Well, it is still illegal to break into a rec center, even if it's just to find a place
02:49to sleep.
02:50You don't understand that.
02:52All right.
02:54Over here for your mugshot, please.
02:55Oh, okay.
02:58Face the camera.
02:59Stand still.
03:01To your right.
03:03I didn't really break in because the door was unlocked, so it's fine, you know?
03:06And I'm sorry, I just got really desperate for...
03:11Am I going to jail or...
03:14You know, you're probably going to sight out in just a couple of hours.
03:17Okie dokie.
03:19Is there any food?
03:21Um, just, I haven't eaten in a while.
03:23Uh, not normally, but I can go check the break room for you.
03:26All right, thank you.
03:27I appreciate that.
03:32I'd offer you something to drink, but both glasses are dirty.
03:36Oh, I can't help with that.
03:37No.
03:37Hey, no, no, no, that's, that's, um, that's okay.
03:39You don't have to do that.
03:40Oh, it's no problem.
03:41You know, a clean space, it, it really helps.
03:44Trust me.
03:44You know, after I blew out my knee in my place, it looked like a tornado tore through a, a frat house.
03:50I didn't realize how much it was contributing to my depression until, uh, my mama came over and insisted on cleaning.
03:57That's okay, you're not my mom.
03:58You're not my mom.
03:59I can, I can do that myself.
04:01What I'm trying to say is, you know, I've been where you, where you are.
04:09After my injury, I couldn't see how anything mattered.
04:11You know, I couldn't play football again, so why about it?
04:14Professionally.
04:15You can never do it again professionally.
04:17Right.
04:19It's not like I had a fallback career, man.
04:21Like, I majored in physical aid.
04:22Can you please just shut up?
04:23You hurt your knee.
04:24I lost my leg.
04:26I'm not saying it's, it's the same.
04:28Yes, you are.
04:29Miles, you didn't go to the NFL.
04:32You lost your million-dollar contract, but you can still run.
04:36What happened to you is nothing like what happened to me.
04:40I think we started off on the wrong foot.
05:03I didn't mean anything by that.
05:05You're right.
05:06I don't know what you're going through.
05:08But I want to.
05:11So how about I stop talking and I start listening?
05:19Oh, no.
05:20What?
05:21Today is my wedding anniversary, and I totally spaced.
05:25Oh, yeah, that's not great.
05:27But Wesley must have forgot, too, if he didn't say anything this morning, right?
05:30No.
05:30Wesley remembers everything about us.
05:32If Wesley remembers everything and he did not say happy anniversary to you this morning,
05:36I mean...
05:37It means it was a test and I failed.
05:40Wow.
05:41What?
05:50Nolan.
05:50Yeah, what's up?
05:56You arrested a guy this morning, Ezra Cain?
05:58Well, that's the name he gave me.
06:00He didn't have any ID, though.
06:02There was a triple homicide in Oregon three years ago.
06:05A husband and wife were brutally murdered in their home.
06:08Their 15-year-old daughter was dragged into the woods.
06:11They found her bloody clothes a week later, but no burial sites.
06:14All they had was a fingerprint that didn't match anything in the system.
06:18Until I ran Ezra Cain's.
06:20Yeah.
06:26The victims were the Poston family.
06:28Craig, Ava, and 15-year-old Samantha.
06:30They lived on the edge of a state park outside Portland.
06:33The working theory is the killer broke into their house in the middle of the night,
06:37killed the father immediately, and then brutalized and executed the mother.
06:40Samantha most likely was dragged out into the woods and killed there.
06:44So what do we have on our suspect?
06:45Literally nothing.
06:47He says his name is Ezra Cain.
06:48That could be an alias.
06:50I caught him trespassing at the Willoughby Rec Center in the early morning.
06:53He said he came in to get out of the cold.
06:55Any ID?
06:56No.
06:56He had a little bit of cash on him, and a bunch of credit cards under various names.
07:01Haven't run them yet, but we can assume they're stolen.
07:03Any in the name of the murdered family?
07:04No.
07:05So how do you want to handle this?
07:08We have a window here.
07:10He doesn't know that we have connected him to the murders.
07:13He still thinks that he is here on trespassing charges.
07:15And it's in our best interest to keep him in the dark.
07:19So you should do the interview.
07:22Mm-hmm.
07:23Right.
07:26Okay.
07:32Any advice?
07:33I mean, you read him his rights.
07:35Yeah, but not for this.
07:36That doesn't matter.
07:36As long as he acknowledged, didn't ask for an attorney, anything you get in your questioning,
07:40it's admissible.
07:41The key is not to push.
07:43Use your famous Nolan empathy to dig without seeming to dig.
07:46Okay?
07:46The second that he suspects that you are onto the murders, he's going to bail.
07:49Got it?
07:50Got it.
07:51Um, can someone track down a sandwich, give me five or ten, and then bring it in?
07:57Smart.
07:58Can do.
07:58Okay.
07:59Remember, go easy.
08:00The more comfortable he feels, the better the chance he slips up.
08:03Understood.
08:04Right, but not too easy, because we don't want him to feel like he's being handled with kid gloves.
08:08It's Goldilocks, this thing.
08:09Yeah.
08:30Hey, sorry to keep your weight.
08:33Sorry, I thought you said I was going to cite out?
08:35Yeah, um, I know, but I found some credit cards when I was going through your things,
08:41credit cards that do not belong to you.
08:43Yeah, I found them, um, not all at the same time, you know, like, along the way, people
08:49drop them, people throw them out by accident, and I know, you know, it was wrong to use them.
08:57I just, I get so hungry.
08:58I get it, but I'm just going to need some clarity before I make a recommendation to the
09:04DA's office.
09:05Right now, your arrest falls into the wobbler category.
09:09Could be a misdemeanor, could be a felony.
09:11Now, I want to recommend the former, but I can't do that unless you are straight with
09:16me.
09:17No, I'm, I'm an open book.
09:20Okay.
09:20Okay, well, let's get started.
09:23Uh, I'm sorry, I tend to, uh, default towards disorganized, which is why I'm still in patrol
09:31and not a fancy detective.
09:33Don't get me wrong, I actually love working the streets, but, uh, every day is unique,
09:39and I meet some fascinating people.
09:41Like me.
09:42Yes.
09:43We'll see.
09:44Okay, your name is Ezra Kane, but you declined to give me a date of birth, or social security
09:52number, or basically anything I could use to confirm your identity, and if you want the
09:57DA's office to play nice, that is not going to fly.
10:00Would you believe I don't know the first, and I don't have the second?
10:04No.
10:05Yeah.
10:05I didn't get the best start in life.
10:08Didn't know dad.
10:09Mom OD'd when I was like a baby.
10:11I, if I had a birth certificate, she probably used it to roll the blunts.
10:17Uh, I ricocheted through the foster system for a decade, and at some point somebody just
10:23picked a birthday for me, and, uh, I, it, whatever it is, it can't be right.
10:29What, what, what was it?
10:30I think it's like January 6th of 82 or maybe 83, and.
10:35Okay.
10:36Yeah.
10:36And were you born in Los Angeles?
10:39Yeah.
10:39Were you?
10:41You know, I don't get a California vibe.
10:43Oh.
10:44East Coast.
10:45Pennsylvania.
10:46Right.
10:46That, that makes more sense.
10:48I'm from Idaho.
10:49I got to say growing up in Idaho was pretty hard.
10:53Hi, this is Detective Angela Lopez, Los Angeles Police Department.
10:56I need to run an Idaho record search.
10:59Last name, Kane with a K, first name Ezra.
11:02Possible birth date of 1-6-82 or 83, but to be safe, search birth dates from 88 to 78.
11:08Thanks.
11:09The cold helped the swelling go down when I caught a beating.
11:13Well, I guess, and that's why you moved to Southern California, if not so that you could
11:17just warm up a little bit.
11:19When was that?
11:21I'm sorry.
11:22I thought we were talking about credit cards.
11:24Yeah, no, listen, we're getting there.
11:26Um, establishing hardship can go a long way to swaying the DA, but if you are in a hurry,
11:34I can just recommend felony and you can wait in your cell.
11:36No, no need to be like that.
11:38I, I, yeah.
11:40Um, I just, I'm not used to people taking an interest, and I guess, uh, it's just not easy
11:48stuff to talk about.
11:50All right.
11:52Excuse me.
11:57Ah, Jan, thank you very much.
11:59Got you something more substantive to eat?
12:01Great.
12:02Okay, let's get to the credit cards.
12:06Yeah?
12:08Great, thanks.
12:10We're over the credit card records.
12:16All right, only two cards have recent activity on them.
12:19One was used two nights ago at the Hollywood Premiere Motel, and that dollar amount suggests
12:24that he still has the room.
12:26Hot damn.
12:27It's everyone's worst nightmare, waking up in the middle of the night to find a psychopath
12:34in your house.
12:35Yeah, and yet, it's statistically the least likely way to get murdered by a psychopath.
12:40I guess we both have some painful experience there.
12:43Is there a problem?
12:45Hi.
12:46Have you seen this man?
12:50Room 216.
12:51So, you know, we've never really talked about what happened to you.
12:54Not that we should have, but, you know, just with my sister's case and everything, you've
13:00been all up in my trauma, and you know what?
13:04I'm sorry.
13:05I shouldn't have brought it up.
13:06All right, listen.
13:07It's fine.
13:08It's natural to be curious.
13:09I just have no interest in revisiting that particular trauma, so.
13:12Copy.
13:17Police!
13:18Come out with your hands empty and keep them where I can see them.
13:27Clear.
13:39There's nowhere for you to go.
13:40Come out.
13:45All right, step out.
13:46No, you need to go.
13:49Yeah, we're not going to do that.
13:50Come out of the tub, please.
13:52I'm fine.
13:55He's going to come back.
13:57You have to go.
13:59He's going to come back.
14:01You have to go.
14:04You have to go.
14:06Please.
14:07Is your name Samantha?
14:11Please, just...
14:12Samantha.
14:13Samantha, the man who took you, he's in custody.
14:17He can't hurt you anymore, okay?
14:19I promise.
14:20It is not fair.
14:28I came clean to everyone.
14:30I've confessed every lie, every sin.
14:33And nobody's forgiven me for anything that I've done.
14:37Half the people that I called, they hang up on me.
14:40My dad, my dad won't even take my calls.
14:44You really haven't changed, though.
14:46Excuse me?
14:46You're doing the same thing you always have.
14:48You're not considering anyone else's experience.
14:51You lied to everyone about almost everything, over and over again.
14:56Now you don't get to set the bar on how people react when you finally tell them the truth.
15:02What you did hurt the people who cared about you.
15:04It's going to take a lot more than an apology tour to fix that.
15:07I suck.
15:07I get it.
15:12Thanks for coming over to clear that up.
15:15I see you never.
15:15Thanks for breakfast.
15:16Get out of here.
15:23My parents.
15:24You have to call my parents.
15:25You have to tell them that I'm okay.
15:28Yeah, of course.
15:29The doctors will take good care of you.
15:31Please.
15:31She doesn't know they're dead.
15:38I mean, he kept her isolated.
15:40She only knows what he told her.
15:41Well, I shouldn't have said yes.
15:42I-I-I wasn't thinking.
15:44Hey, look.
15:44It was instinct, all right?
15:45Try not to beat yourself up.
15:47She's in shock.
15:48It wasn't the moment to add more trauma.
15:49It'll be fine.
15:50Yeah.
15:57You haven't eaten much, Promo, the sandwich?
15:59No, no, this is great.
16:00I'm just-you know what it is?
16:01I'm a little claustrophobic.
16:03Spent a lot of nights as a kid locked up in small spaces.
16:07Sorry to interrupt.
16:08Can I steal you for a sec?
16:10Of course.
16:10Excuse me.
16:12Lucy and Selena just found Samantha Poston inside Ezra's motel room.
16:18Is she-
16:19She's alive and in no immediate medical danger.
16:22But beyond that-
16:23Okay, so are you taking over the interview?
16:26Not yet.
16:26There's still room for you to squeeze in before everything comes out into the open.
16:29Go back in there and turn up the heat.
16:31Tell him we found a few recent charges on the various cards.
16:34Mention the motel, but not like we've gone there or even that we will.
16:37And let's just see what happens.
16:41Right.
16:44This changes the profile, doesn't it?
16:47He kept that girl for three years.
16:49That-
16:50He's not just a murderer.
16:52No.
16:53He's worse.
16:53Sorry about that.
17:03Yeah, everything okay?
17:06I'm gonna be straight with you, Ezra.
17:07We ran those credit cards, and we found some recent charges.
17:12One of them being to a motel in Tytown.
17:16Well, hold on.
17:18When was the motel booked?
17:20Because-
17:20That wasn't me.
17:22Yeah, I mean-
17:22Why would I take refuge in a rec center if I had a place to sleep?
17:28So you're telling me if I went to this motel with your photograph, you would not be recognized?
17:33Absolutely not.
17:34No.
17:34I don't know why you would waste your time doing that.
17:38I mean, surely the LAPD has better things to do than spend resources on a wobbler that's 100% going to plead out.
17:48Call him my bluff.
17:49Look, I know I've got a job to do.
17:52I'm just a guy trying to make his way in an unfair world without hurting anyone.
18:02Can you explain something for me?
18:04Why didn't she leave?
18:05Yeah.
18:06I mean, I know what they taught us in the academy, but, I mean, he left her alone for at least 12 hours.
18:11It's the opposite of fight or flight.
18:13You know, it's freeze and appease.
18:15You saw how scared she was of him.
18:17That level of fear, it's her primary motivator.
18:20Maybe her only one.
18:24Hey.
18:25I'm sorry.
18:26I wish I could let you rest, but I-I need to ask you some questions before the detectives conduct a more formal interview.
18:33Okay.
18:34Okay.
18:42I-I can't imagine how overwhelming the last hour has been, so I'm not going to assume that you remember anything, all right?
18:49The man who took you, we have him in custody.
18:52Ezra Kane is the name that he's using.
18:54Is-is that how you name him?
18:54I'm not supposed to talk about him.
18:56Who said that?
18:57Him?
18:57Yeah, I get-I get it.
19:00Samantha, you're safe now.
19:04You are.
19:04Samantha, I'm very sorry, but, um, your parents are deceased.
19:19No.
19:20No.
19:21No.
19:22I'm so sorry.
19:23No.
19:24What-what happened to them?
19:25Did he kill them?
19:26No!
19:27No!
19:28They're alive!
19:29They-they have to be alive!
19:30He said that-
19:31Did he say he would hurt them if you didn't cooperate?
19:35Is-is that the threat he used to keep you with him?
19:37Yeah.
19:38Yeah.
19:39Eamon.
19:40He made me call him Eamon, the Seventh Spirit, Marquis of Hell, who commands forty legions,
20:00including the police, and he said that I was his soulmate.
20:09None of that is true, especially the police part, but it doesn't make any of that less terrifying.
20:16Do you remember the night that he took you?
20:21The screams woke me up.
20:28I thought it was the TV, so I went out into the hall just to ask my parents if they could
20:34turn it down.
20:39There-there was this smell in the air, and it just made the hair on the back of my neck
20:49to stand up.
20:52So I called out, and that's when he stepped into the hall.
21:00I couldn't really see him, but I just-I knew in my body that he was evil.
21:15Does that sound crazy?
21:16No.
21:17No.
21:18No.
21:23Where did he take you?
21:25A cabin in the woods, or at least it used to be.
21:29I mean, I don't think anyone had lived there for years, but that was my home for the next eight months.
21:39Do you remember why you guys moved?
21:42Winter came.
21:43He has this thing about being cold, and by then, by then he knew I wasn't gonna run.
21:52Okay, um, I think I have what I need for now.
21:58I'm gonna let you get some rest, okay?
22:01Uh, he-he bought a car after we got to L.A.
22:07I-I don't-I don't know if that matters.
22:09Yeah, no, it sure does.
22:10Do you remember what kind of car it was?
22:12Um, it-it was old, four doors, black.
22:18So he would have taken that car when he left the motel then?
22:21Yeah.
22:22Did he tell you where he was going?
22:23No.
22:24He just said that he may be a while, and, uh, that he would punish me if I wasn't a good girl.
22:38Did he say something else, Samantha?
22:44He said he was getting ready for after.
22:47After?
22:48After what?
22:49I thought he meant-I thought he meant after me.
22:55You felt like he was getting ready to kill you?
23:01Part of me was really relieved.
23:04Because-because at least it would finally be over.
23:19You felt like-例えば внести какие-то неудачу?
23:29You even sick?
23:31Right.
23:32Just how did the差is accidentally have been up for.
23:34Maybe-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my-my.
23:38Hey, Scott to the motel.
23:46Lucy called.
23:47She interviewed Samantha.
23:48Our guy's got a car.
23:49Make and model?
23:50Black four-door sedan.
23:51Old.
23:52That's not particularly helpful.
23:53Find any trophies in the room?
23:55Uh, not yet.
23:56I'm waiting for TID to land before I started digging through Ezra's stuff.
23:59But, you know, I did find some drawings that have me freaked out a little.
24:02Freaked you out?
24:03This I gotta see.
24:04Yeah, hold on.
24:08Yeah, that's not okay.
24:15Look what Tim found in Ezra's stuff.
24:18Oh, yeah.
24:18No, that's not okay.
24:20No, but according to Lucy, it tracks.
24:22Ezra believes he's a demon named Amon, one of the marquees of hell.
24:30Everything okay?
24:33Hell.
24:36I was wrong.
24:37This is taking too long, which means you did send somebody to the motel.
24:44Why would you waste your time with a transient who stole a bunch of credit cards?
24:50Well, this started long before we found out about the motel, Ezra.
24:55Fingerprints.
25:04Credit where credit's due.
25:06You've got that, oh, shucks, every man cop thing down, Pat, and I bought it for too long.
25:13That's on me.
25:14But I bet that there are cops way up higher on the food chain behind that mirror that are just dying to get in here.
25:22Little pigs.
25:23Little pigs.
25:27Get your asses in here.
25:29I've enjoyed my time with Officer Appetizer.
25:33I'm ready for the main course.
25:34I'm ready for the main course.
25:38There they are.
25:41You must be the prosecutor.
25:42Wesley Evers.
25:43I'm Detective Lopez.
25:44This is Detective Harper.
25:45Is it okay if we call you Ezra, or do you prefer Amon?
25:49Someone's been talking out of school.
25:52I'm going to readvise you of your rights, including the right to have an attorney present.
25:57Not necessary yet.
25:58I'll let you know.
25:59Can I have a moment?
26:00Yeah.
26:00What?
26:03No goodbye.
26:09I'm going to go check out the rec center where I found him.
26:12Something isn't adding up.
26:13Agreed.
26:14But before you go, any insights that you might have from sitting two feet from him that might
26:18not have translated to us through the window?
26:21Yeah.
26:22When he was talking about the cold of his childhood, that was real.
26:25You want to get him on the saddle?
26:26Crank the A.C.
26:27Love it.
26:30My janitor locked up just after 10 last night.
26:36The place was empty after that.
26:37Well, this place is huge.
26:39There's no chance anybody saw or heard anything from the road.
26:44All right.
26:45This is about where I saw him.
26:47He heard me coming, and then he took off that way through those doors.
27:00Got it.
27:05Car key.
27:07I must have ditched it when he heard me coming.
27:09So what hit?
27:10One of the reasons I ditched the key is so you didn't find the car.
27:12Well, why?
27:13I don't know.
27:14Like I said, there were no cars here when I got here this morning.
27:17I scrubbed body cam.
27:18I scrubbed dash cam.
27:19No black sedan.
27:20I got blood.
27:23There were no visible cuts on Ezra when I processed him.
27:28Right there.
27:29Have you always known you were one of the devil's minions?
27:33Or was that a later in life revelation?
27:36Yes.
27:36Oh, your disbelief in my truth, it makes no difference as long as Samantha believes that's
27:46all that matters.
27:47Yeah, that won't last.
27:48You don't control her anymore.
27:50Hmm, how little you know.
27:52I'm going to be with her until the day she dies, which was going to be today.
27:57You know why?
27:59It's the real reason I was trespassing this morning.
28:05Nolan.
28:06I have found a new soulmate.
28:17He's got another girl.
28:22All right, Julie Reed was reported missing at 4 a.m. after she failed to come home from
28:27a friend's house.
28:27According to her parents, she was back and forth between the two homes all the time, and
28:31her route took her right past the rec center.
28:33Sounds like you've been watching her for a while, planning the perfect time and place
28:36to make his move.
28:37If the suspect's car was gone when Officer Nolan arrived this morning, Ezra must have
28:41left and came back.
28:42Why would he do that?
28:43My best guess is that he left something at the scene.
28:46Most likely his makeshift wallet.
28:48He only realized it after he'd left, but went back for it because he knew it would connect
28:51him to the abduction.
28:52But with a wounded girl in the trunk, he was faced with a problem.
28:55It would have been quicker to run back to the center and run inside.
28:58But that would have put him at a greater risk because if Julie was conscious and screaming
29:03her head off, it would draw a lot of attention.
29:04So he parked the car somewhere else, somewhere no one could hear her screaming.
29:08Went back on foot.
29:09Right.
29:09But how far would he be comfortable walking?
29:12Ten minutes, 20?
29:13The average walking pace of a healthy male is probably two and a half, three miles an hour.
29:18Any faster might draw him wanted attention.
29:20Okay.
29:20So to be safe, let's say three and a half miles per hour or a 20-minute walk.
29:25Which means we are looking at almost a square mile search radius.
29:29It's clear from the volume of blood at the scene that she was badly wounded.
29:32She was left on her own somewhere over eight hours ago.
29:35Every further minute that passes reduces the likelihood we will find her alive.
29:42Where is Julie Reed?
29:44Oh, is that her name?
29:45No, because we were never properly introduced and can you please turn the AC off?
29:50It's like a freezer in here.
29:52No problem.
29:52Just as soon as you tell us where she is.
29:54You think I would trade my comfort for her?
29:59After all you've seen of my sacrifice.
30:01No, no, I guess not.
30:02But what would you trade for her?
30:04Now that's an interesting question.
30:07Let's see.
30:08I would say a reduced sentence, but we all know that would be a hollow promise.
30:13After all that I've done.
30:16I would love to say a proper goodbye to fair Samantha.
30:21Not a chance in hell.
30:22That is a non-starter.
30:23There is no way we would ever let you re-traumatize that girl.
30:27I don't think you have a choice.
30:27I think you kind of have to ask her.
30:29No, we don't.
30:30Oh yeah, no.
30:30I think Samantha would disagree.
30:32Think about it.
30:33How is Samantha going to feel when Julie dies before you tell her and Samantha realizes she could have saved that poor girl?
30:43Huh.
30:44How about this?
30:45Let's give this a shot.
30:46Tell Samantha that Julie is near the red place.
30:49And if she just talks to me for one more minute, I-I will tell you where that is.
31:02Sorry to interrupt.
31:03I just need to borrow Sergeant Chen.
31:05Wait, did something happen?
31:06No, no, no.
31:07I just need her for a second.
31:08I'll be just outside, okay?
31:09I'm right here.
31:14Ezra took another girl before he was arrested.
31:17He says he'll tell us where she is if we let him talk to Samantha.
31:20No.
31:21Forget that.
31:21He doesn't want to help us.
31:23He just wants to keep traumatizing her.
31:25I agree.
31:25So do Lopez and Harper.
31:27He says that the girl's being held near the red place.
31:30And if we told that to Samantha, then she'd agree to talk.
31:32No, we're not saying that to her, okay?
31:34It's a trick.
31:38Samantha, open the door.
31:40What happened?
31:41The red place?
31:42I mean, it's got to be some sort of trigger phrase.
31:44He spent three years convincing her that the police were in league with him, and she just heard us using his language.
31:48I mean, it's got to be some sort of trigger phrase.
32:197 Adam 20, no sign of suspect vehicle at 1900 to Hawthorne.
32:237 Adam 4, construction site at 801 Mercury is empty of vehicles.
32:277 Lincoln 15, first five levels of Wilshire Office Complex Garage are clear.
32:32Moving to lower level.
32:48Amanda, go ahead.
32:5610 000 miles of time.
33:01Sean?
33:0212 000 miles an ก
33:03Pam?
33:05Julie, you in there?
33:20No, no, no.
33:237 Lincoln 15. I have her.
33:25Lower level of the garage. Senate Ambulance now.
33:32Hey. Hey, Julie.
33:34I'm Officer Nolan. I'm here to help you.
33:36Now, I'm going to have to put some pressure on that wound
33:39to stop the bleeding, okay?
33:40But it is going to hurt.
33:42I am so sorry.
33:44Easy.
33:46I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
33:48I know. I know. You're doing great.
33:50You're doing great.
33:54She's right here.
33:55She just passed out. She's lost a lot of blood.
33:59Pulse is weak.
34:01She's in hypovolemic shock.
34:02We got to get her out of here.
34:04Nolan.
34:18Hey.
34:18Are you all right?
34:21Yeah.
34:22Um, Julie just got out of surgery.
34:24They lost her on the table for a minute,
34:25but she pulled through,
34:26and she's recovering in the ICU.
34:28Thank God.
34:28Can I talk to her when she's ready?
34:32Uh, I'll ask.
34:34You know, we wouldn't have found her without you.
34:37You gave us the car.
34:38I said it had wheels.
34:40And that it was black and old.
34:42I meant it.
34:43She is alive because of you.
34:45Samantha's been incredibly brave today.
34:47I'll, uh, I'll come talk to you guys later.
34:53Yeah.
34:59Do you mind if I sit with you for a bit?
35:01Um, okay.
35:02Okay.
35:16What was the, um, the red place?
35:19There was this house that we stayed at early on.
35:25They had painted the bathroom red.
35:29So when I was bad,
35:32he would take me in there to punish me.
35:35I know you're not ready to hear this.
35:41Um, but when it's time,
35:44the first step of your recovery
35:46will be to stop blaming yourself.
35:50Sure.
35:51On it.
35:52I know.
35:53I know.
35:54It's easier said than done,
35:55but I know what I'm talking about.
35:59You know,
35:59I want to share something with you,
36:01something that happened to me,
36:03if that's okay.
36:04Um, so my rookie year as a cop,
36:08I met this guy,
36:10and he loved dogs,
36:11and he was cute,
36:12and he seemed great.
36:14Um, uh, we went on a date,
36:17and he kidnapped me.
36:21The details are a lot,
36:23but the short version
36:24is that I thought I was going to die
36:27in another five minutes,
36:29and I probably would have.
36:32For months afterwards,
36:33I'd just obsessed about every second with him
36:36before he drugged me,
36:37how I should have seen through him,
36:39how I should have been faster,
36:41smarter.
36:41I wanted to believe
36:46that I was in control,
36:47but I wasn't.
36:51So, eventually,
36:52I stopped focusing
36:53on the things that I didn't do,
36:55and I focused on the thing that I did.
36:58I survived.
37:00You survived.
37:02Samantha, you're here.
37:03I know that you don't see how brave
37:10and powerful you are, okay?
37:14But I do.
37:15I really, really do.
37:19Hey, uh, sorry to interrupt.
37:22Um, I spoke to your aunt, Sarah.
37:24She is rushing back from her vacation in London,
37:27but her plane won't get here
37:28until tomorrow afternoon.
37:29Hey, it's okay.
37:31Don't worry, all right?
37:32You're not going to be alone.
37:34Every female cop at Mid-Wilshire
37:35has volunteered to keep you company
37:37in the coming days and weeks.
37:39Yeah.
37:39We have your back, Samantha.
37:41For however long you need
37:43until you feel safe.
37:49Hey.
37:50Seth's here.
37:51I'll be in my room.
37:53It's good to see you, too.
37:56It's not a fan.
38:00Poor you.
38:05Um, look, you're right, man.
38:09The self-pity's got to stop.
38:11I want to do better.
38:13But clearly, I don't know how to,
38:15and you are the best guy I know,
38:18so will you help me?
38:21I would need radical honesty.
38:25One tiny white lie, I'm out.
38:28In that case, you are one of the best guys I know.
38:32Still has a sense of humor.
38:34You might make it through this after all.
38:37All right.
38:38No lies, no woes to me.
38:40Just head down, do the work,
38:42and be grateful.
38:43Deal?
38:43Deal.
38:43Come here, brother.
38:56Surprise!
38:58Hey.
38:59Thanks.
39:00Uh, you do know it's not my birthday, right?
39:04You did forget.
39:05Uh, no.
39:06It's definitely not my birthday.
39:08No.
39:10It's a different special day.
39:12Uh, wait.
39:16No, it's...
39:17Oh, my God.
39:21It's our anniversary.
39:22It is.
39:24You forgot.
39:25And I remember.
39:28Did you?
39:30Totally.
39:34Congrats, grad.
39:36Fine.
39:37I forgot.
39:38But I had to pull this together fast.
39:40But I remember it before you did,
39:43and that's what's important.
39:45Winning.
39:46Yeah.
39:47And you know what else is super important?
39:50No.
39:50What?
39:51The kids are with my mom.
39:53Oh.
39:54Hmm.
39:54Hmm.
40:01Hi.
40:02Hey, Andy.
40:02How's it going?
40:03Oh, I missed you.
40:04Oh, God.
40:06What a day.
40:08How'd I go to the hospital?
40:09It's fine.
40:10Samantha's asleep right now,
40:11so I'll go in and check in with her tomorrow.
40:15Mm-hmm.
40:16Do I smell dinner?
40:17Don't get too excited.
40:19I ordered Italian.
40:20It's in the oven.
40:20Keep it warm.
40:21Hmm.
40:22You're a hero.
40:23Hmm.
40:25Oh, God.
40:26Okay, so I need to say something,
40:28and I need you to respond with kindness, okay?
40:31Okay.
40:32Um, after the day that I've had,
40:36I really need this place to feel like a refuge
40:39and not a UPS sorting facility.
40:41We need to get these damn boxes out of here.
40:45I...
40:45I agree.
40:49No time like the present.
40:51Let's do it.
40:51Wait, hold on.
40:52I'm tired.
40:53I'm very tired.
40:56I thought maybe we could have dinner,
40:58and then I would...
40:59I could sit here and...
41:01and supervise.
41:03I mean, how can I refuse that offer?
41:07You can't.
41:08All right, I'll get dinner.
41:14Yep.
41:15Good work today, Officer Nolan.
41:31Thanks.
41:34How come I don't feel better about it?
41:36I think you know the answer.
41:38Yeah.
41:39Listen, we can't change what already happened.
41:46All we can do is stop it from happening again.
41:49And you did that today.
41:51In a big way.
41:53Which means...
41:55someone ought to buy you a drink.
41:59You volunteering?
42:00I am.
42:21I am.
42:22I am.
