00:16Of course, it's this one.
00:19Merry Christmas to me.
00:27Hello?
00:45You 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, seen all sorts but this.
01:03You got a different kind of cake, huh?
01:14I had a girl.
01:20So you want to pay me the rest now, or did you have something else in mind?
01:29Something else.
01:54You got state secrets?
01:56You really want to know?
01:58Uh, not if it's going to make me blush.
02:01No.
02:02Yeah, no, you're not ready for this heat.
02:04That is definitely a pass for me then.
02:07Uh, yes, please.
02:10You know, I can eat your toast.
02:11It's all yours.
02:12I'll take that.
02:15All right.
02:15I got to go.
02:16Me and Kylie are meeting up early to go over this chemistry midterm.
02:19Who's Kylie again?
02:20Hmm.
02:21Dad.
02:22Say hi to Kylie for me.
02:25And, um, can I get a ride in the city tomorrow?
02:27We got the day off.
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?
02:38Still tinkering.
02:39Ty?
02:40Look.
02:41I'm telling you.
02:42Don't slouch on this.
02:43Okay?
02:44This is college.
02:45It's about your future.
02:45I got it, okay?
02:47I do.
02:50I just 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.
03:01She didn't answer.
03:02No.
03:03It's been weeks since I've heard from work.
03:05Hey!
03:05Uh, you guys should listen to this.
03:08Oh.
03:08Good morning, Kelly.
03:10Right.
03:10Sorry.
03:11Yes.
03:11Good morning.
03:12I've actually, well, I've been here a while.
03:14Okay.
03:15Uh, okay.
03:16So, it's my turn to work at Tip Line last night.
03:18Mostly nuisance calls.
03:20You guys know how it is.
03:20But there was one that actually seemed very legit.
03:24Right?
03:24Her name's Gail Burke.
03:25Retired EMT.
03:26She's got commendations up and down her file.
03:28Not a kook.
03:29Let's hear it.
03:31For 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.
03:48Just for peace of mind.
03:49So, I called her back.
03:51Seems credible.
03:51If she's right.
03:54All right.
03:55Grab your jacket.
03:57You want me to come with?
03:59Why not?
04:00See your fish.
04:02Oh, okay.
04:07Looks like the project stalled out in May.
04:10Developer says they had security cameras, but they shut them down months ago.
04:14All right.
04:16Split up.
04:17Kelly, take left.
04:55Hey.
04:55I 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.
05:00We'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.
05:24Oh, what is that?
05:26Decom.
05:42Found the source of that smell.
05:45So 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 decompensant stages ranging from last week to last night.
06:06The most recent Vic has got defensive material beneath her nails.
06:10She fought back before he crushed her windpipe.
06:13Okay.
06:13We'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.
06:27The initials BC.
06:29Think our guy did this?
06:30If he did, it wasn't recent.
06:33All right.
06:34Let's get this back to the jock.
06:35See if they can make anything of it.
06:37Thanks.
06:38Yeah.
06:41Remind me to never underestimate the tip lining, and those are great instincts go.
06:44Thanks.
06:44All right, tell us about our three victims.
06:46Uh, yeah.
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.
06:58And all strangled to death within the last week.
07:01With no signs of rape or sexual assault.
07:03So 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 VICAP, 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?
07:24Found 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 VICs.
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 worked the street.
07:43No 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. I want him ID'd now.
08:07Yes, ma'am. Let's get Skola and Eva over to Roosevelt Avenue.
08:10Maybe somebody saw them scoop up Vesper.
08:19So, Skola, you got any special holiday plans?
08:21Oh, Nina wants to host, you know, do it all for once, the whole shebang.
08:26What? It's not your vision?
08:27Hell, our family's just kind of a lot, you know what I mean?
08:31Yeah, try to explain to my mom why I'm still single over Christmas.
08:35Crick!
08:36Oh, here we go.
08:44Special Agents Rommel's in school, FBI.
08:48It's hard enough without you people.
08:50Look, we're not the cops. We're not trying to jam you up, okay? We just have to ask you a
08:53couple questions.
08:54Yeah? About what?
08:56Well, there's somebody out here targeting women in your line of work, alright? We just need a little help.
09:03You work for Buddy Cook?
09:04I don't work for anybody.
09:06Hey, you know your rice, Charlie. You don't gotta tell him nothing.
09:09Thanks, Des. I got this.
09:12Do you know this girl? Her name is Vesper Green.
09:18Maybe, yeah.
09:20What's going on?
09:22Did something happen to her?
09:23I'm sorry, but we found Vesper's body this morning strangled to death.
09:37What is this?
09:38It's, um...
09:40It's Vesper. They said...
09:41They said she's dead.
09:43Murdered, along 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?
10:00Client? Fight?
10:02Fights happen all the time.
10:04It's, um...
10:05What do they say? Occupational hazard?
10:07That's why we started working in pairs.
10:10Was anyone working with Vesper the last time you saw her?
10:12Yeah, uh...
10:14Vesper was talking to some white dude.
10:16Left in an SUV.
10:18Looked like it hadn't been washed in like ever.
10:22I'm pretty sure...
10:23I'm pretty sure...
10:23Effie was with her.
10:25He picked them both up.
10:33All right, so the super confirmed...
10:35He saw Effie O'Rourke go into this apartment a couple hours ago.
10:42Hit it.
10:46F.B.I!
10:46Hey, hey, hey!
10:48What is this?
10:48Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
10:49On the ground!
10:50On your knees!
10:51Hey, hey!
10:52Effie?
10:54Effie?
10:55You'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 project manager at Iron State.
11:16High-end contracting firm.
11:19It's a respectable job.
11:20No priors.
11:21How'd you end up in this mess?
11:23Three 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.
11:30We'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,
11:51were picked up by the same John.
11:52White, male, 30s, around 6'3", and they were driven off in a dark SUV,
11:56just like the one that you own.
11:57That proves nothing.
11:58Half the city drives a dark SUV.
12:03Look, 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!
12:14You 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?
12:28We 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?
12:37You guys didn't see that part.
12:41Look, she tried to drug me.
12:45And, yes, I lost control.
12:48But if you need proof, test my DNA or whatever,
12:50it 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.
13:08He would've killed that girl if he didn't show up.
13:10Yeah, he's a piece of work, but BAU's prelim profile says we need to look for somebody who's anti-social,
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 at a work site.
13:47His manager confirmed it.
13:48Oh, and ERT found traces of her hypnol 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.
14:06You 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?
14:26There's somebody that's killing girls like you.
14:29Right?
14:30We'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.
14:45It's him.
14:47Who's him?
14:49It's John.
14:51He picked us up.
14:53Me and Vesper.
14:54He paid me to drug that guy.
14:56He 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 and 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.
15:27What did the John want in the wallet?
15:30He showed me a photo of Brandon and 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 and once I got the wallet I was supposed to meet the guy in Washington
15:44Heights.
15:54That's where you found them.
15:57Isn't it?
16:01Effie?
16:08Was Vesper supposed to steal something too?
16:15After that, the creep picked us up.
16:19We all went to the diner.
16:23He spoke to me and Vesper in separate booths.
16:26Where 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 saying for the car he
16:37was driving so we were chasing that frisbee.
16:40All right, we got eyes on the, uh, the diner.
16:42Effie said her and her friend were taken to.
16:43Uh, got two, but the cameras only cover half the parking lot.
16:46Well, that'll have to do. Eyes up for a dark SUV, right?
16:50Hey, yeah, got something. 2 22 PM.
16:53All right, all right.
16:54Man exiting a dark SUV with our two women.
16:56I can't see the plates.
16:57All 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.
17:06Hold on, let me try something.
17:09Yeah, I think I got it.
17:10Update to our face rec software.
17:12It can pull from different angles to get a composite.
17:15Got it.
17:16Okay, folks, eyes up.
17:18Warren Stroud.
17:19It's good to know each other. Talk 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.
17:41Okay, so maybe Warren's redirecting his anger
17:44for 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
17:55before 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
18:10where we found the bodies.
18:11Get Skoll and Eva there now.
18:12FBI, open up.
18:12No.
18:12No.
18:17No.
18:19No.
18:19No.
18:20No.
18:21No.
18:37FBI, open up.
18:39I'm coming out.
18:40Don't shoot, please.
18:46Up against the wall.
18:50All right, we're all clear.
18:51We're looking for Warren Stroud.
18:54Who are you?
18:55I'm his wife.
19:04Will 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.
19:16Warren 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.
19:45He's been in a spiral.
19:47He's been in a spiral, better part of a year.
19:48He lost his job.
19:50I found him with a prostitute.
19:53There were others.
19:54Him doing that?
19:56Bringing whatever they gave him back to our bed?
19:59No.
20:00I left.
20:03But I still care about him.
20:08Okay.
20:09So how did you end up here at this motel?
20:12He's been here before.
20:14He left me a message two nights ago.
20:16Sounded like he was on an upswing.
20:17So I drove into the city to find him.
20:20You still got the voicemail?
20:21Can we hear it?
20:26We 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 and it's lit in my hand and 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.
20:59Mm-hmm.
21:00I'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.
21:06Well, 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.
21:16Okay.
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.
21:29And I'm holding the match and it's lit in my hand and it doesn't hurt.
21:35This day of reckoning is so close.
21:37I 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.
21:45Well, yeah.
21:46But 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.
22:02Maybe 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?
22:12We 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.
22:32We 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.
22:44Take us through it. How were you robbed?
22:46I was watching the ball game at Finnegan's, just minding my own damn business, when this girl came and sat
22:51at the bar.
22:52And then what happened?
22:53She started flirting, like, real suggestive.
22:56Thought it was my lucky night.
22:58Then I jumped to bring her back to my place.
23:00Believe 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. That's the crazy girl that roofie me.
23:10Redhead.
23:11That's her.
23:12Yes, her.
23:14She seems 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.
23:27Things were going great, and then I woke up in the morning, felt like I took a break to the
23:31face.
23:32What did she steal from you?
23:34My laptop.
23:35My work lanyard was gone.
23:37She took my damn keys.
23:38For your home, your car.
23:40And then some.
23:41Like I'm a fleet manager over at NYEP.
23:44New York Eastern Power.
23:45So 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?
23:52I'm a third generation IBEW.
23:56I 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?
24:09Um, my 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.
24:22And 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
24:29unless 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.
24:38Okay, so let's, uh, warn Eastern Power
24:40there could be a security breach
24:42and let's mobilize NYPD to all its facilities, yeah?
24:44The only thing we haven't figured out
24:46is how Brandon Krawchuk factors into this.
24:48We need to get his wallet to evidence.
24:50See 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,
24:59Warren could already be after him.
25:01Get Maggie in a way to Brandon's apartment now.
25:22I got a body.
25:33He's Brandon. He's dead.
25:38No!
25:40No!
25:42No!
25:44No!
25:46Uh!
25:47No!
25:47No!
25:48No!
25:50No!
25:53Come on.
26:07Away!
26:11Go.
26:23Go.
26:45It's over, 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?
27:01The clocks will be reset.
27:15You murdered three women, Warren.
27:17You had them drug and rob three different male targets.
27:20Where are the stolen items that you killed for?
27:23The silent treatment is not gonna work.
27:25We have already tied your DNA and your fingerprints to the three victims.
27:29They won't be the last to die.
27:32Well, you are in here now, so how's that gonna work?
27:34Well, 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. Is 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.
27:54If 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 gonna be reset.
28:08What's that all about?
28:13Warren, what do you want?
28:15I want what we all want.
28:19To live free.
28:20We are free.
28:21And 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.
28:33Whose words are those?
28:35I don't think they belong to you.
28:39You 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 don't have time for this.
28:49If you can't see it, we got nothing to talk about.
28:53You're gonna remember this conversation with the judge signed your death warrant.
28:56You can't threaten me.
28:58I may be locked up now.
29:00But soon, there will be no prisons.
29:04We'll finally hit the post.
29:06What post is that?
29:08Post Society.
29:16Hey Ty, where you guys at?
29:18Me and Kylie just went skating and we're gonna grab some lunch.
29:21You're still giving us a ride back later, right?
29:23No, look.
29:24I'm gonna 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.
29:31Sorry.
29:34Alright.
29:35We'll head back.
29:36Tyler.
29:37What'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, similar to the telegram channels used by domestic terrorists.
29:57It is very grim stuff.
29:59Accelerationists preaching about doomsday.
30:01Accelerationists?
30:02So what are we talking about?
30:03A hate group?
30:03Well, these people, they hate the world.
30:05Their channel isn't tied to any racist ideology.
30:08They 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 song lives on.
30:34And these message boards, they are just an echo chamber for his members to provoke each other into committing more
30:40extreme 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. They 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.
31:09Right. Warren 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'd have access to demo materials, heavy 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.
31:35It was empty.
31:36She must have slipped away, and she powered down her phone.
31:38All right.
31:39We've got to find her now.
31:40Boss, you should see this.
31:4220 minutes ago, one of the stolen Eastern Power trucks pulled into this construction site.
31:47That's the construction site where Brandon Krawchuk works.
31:50Okay.
31:50So Warren Stroud is in custody.
31:51So who is driving that truck?
31:53I've got another angle there.
32:00Well, at least we found her.
32:02All right, folks.
32:03Warren Stroud is not working alone.
32:05Janice Stroud, his wife, is working with him.
32:07She just stole his 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.
32:15We still got eyes on that truck?
32:16No, no.
32:17We're still looking.
32:18All right.
32:18Everyone 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?
32:24Come on.
32:25Jubal.
32:26Looks like the truck just crossed a toll on the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel.
32:30Okay.
32:30What 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.
32:41Get a team there right now.
32:44Hey, Dad.
32:45Hey, John.
32:46What's going on, buddy?
32:47Had a great time.
32:48You on the train?
32:49We were about to, but look.
32:52You always said if I saw something that looked off, I should call you.
32:55Uh, yeah.
32:55Sure.
32:56What'd you see?
32:57Kylie and I were headed to the train just now, and weird 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?
33:09Where is this?
33:10We're on Hudson, like, four blocks away from your office.
33:12Uh, okay.
33:14I'm gonna have somebody check it out, but I need you and Kylie to get in a taxi right now
33:17and go home.
33:18Do you understand?
33:19Okay.
33:20Okay.
33:21Okay.
33:21Yeah.
33:22Okay.
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.
33:38All right, Jubal.
33:40I got eyes on Janice.
33:41She's held up with her gate with the key card.
33:43We're moving in.
33:47Janice!
33:48The FBI, all right?
33:49I need you to step out of the truck slowly with your hands in the air.
34:11She's headed for the Transformers.
34:13Everybody!
34:14Get up!
34:14Get up!
34:16Get up!
34:17Go!
34:20Skola!
34:21Watch out!
34:26Okay, 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 an eye on her.
34:35Yep.
34:36Jubal, we got an active shooter.
34:38Send back him.
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.
34:54Whoa, is that?
34:55PBX polymer bonded explosives and not just a single serving.
34:59Skola, Eva, you there?
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.
35:17Do we 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 Brits on the ground.
35:29Yeah, on it.
35:30Oh, I dispatched the team to check something out nearby.
35:32Why?
35:32Tyler'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.
36:04Let's ver.
36:04We'll secure the area.
36:05The rest with us.
36:06Let's go, Dan.
36:07Next start, class, let's go!
36:15Oh, hold on.
36:15Get down!
36:25Wait for the reload.
36:29Cover us, now!
36:38Suspect down, Genesis on the west tower, second floor.
36:56She armed the bomb.
36:59Janice!
37:00Go, go, go, I'll get her!
37:08Away, cut the blasting cap to neutralize the device completely.
37:27It's over.
37:29You're damn right, dude.
37:31It's all over.
37:38Oh, God.
37:40What the... what 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, right?
37:55You still got comms?
37:56Hey, Maggie, LA, can you hear me?
37:58Oh, there we are.
37:59Maggie?
37:59Jubal, can you hear me?
38:03Comms are down.
38:07Somebody talk to me!
38:08Okay, okay, we'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.
38:25They took down the city's entire fiber optic network.
38:35Okay, guys.
38:36Come on.
38:38Hey, you've 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!
38:52Jubal!
