I can't do these
late nights anymore.

My girl's about to walk.

Yeah, my old lady's like,
bring home the double overtime.

Well, you can't win.

Tell me about it.

What the hell?

Probably drunk or high.

Hey!

Hey!

This is a work zone.

You gotta leave!

Something awful happened.

This road's closed.

Down by the trailhead.

What is it?

Someone's been
a real bad boy.

See anything?

Holy crap.

Call the cops.

Make sure that guy
doesn't go anywhere.

All right, Jack, try again.

I got it!

Good try. Good try.
Take it out, try it again.

Hey. What are you
doing here?

I thought
you had to work.

Mm. I snuck out
to see you and Jack.

I gotta get back soon,
though.

Yeah, that's how you score,
Jack. Good job! Whoo!

You could do the same
at my place tonight.

Ha! That's me
being brazen.

Shocking, Ms. Clemons.

Mm-hmm. Well, just to prove that
I don't have a one-track mind,

there's also something that I
would like to talk to you about.

What's up?

Uh...

It can wait till tonight.

Or not. Duty calls?

Yeah.

I'll make it up to you,
I promise.

Um, can you give me a hint?

Uh...

I got a job offer
in New York.

Hi, Beth!

Hi! Ohh!

Good job.

Thanks. Thanks.
Hey, good job, buddy.

Can we get ice cream?

Uh, I gotta go to work,
so, if we do,

we gotta make it fast, ok?
Ok?

All right, go take
one more shot.

I gotta go anyway.

So I'll call you when I get back
and we'll talk, ok?

Yeah. I'll be waiting.

5 days ago the Yamada family
went missing from their home

in Kansas City, Kansas.

Last night a road crew found
3 members of the family,

John, Tricia, and their
16-year-old daughter Kristen

all dead, all shot to death
and left at the side of a highway.

Uh, they were tipped off
to the location by a drifter

who is now M.I.A.

And the youngest child,
Scott Yamada, is still missing?

Yeah. The murder weapon
was an unregistered 9-millimeter.

It was found near the bodies.

There were prints on the gun
that were the father's,

and there was gunshot
residue on his hand.

So he drove his family
away from their home,

hooded his wife and daughter,
shot them, then committed suicide.

Why do it out here?

That is unusual. Most familicides happen
in the comfort of the home.

So what happened to the son?

He either shot him first
or he wanted to spare him.

Well, if he spared the son,

it's most likely
he left him in a safe place,

maybe with a relative,
before he carried this out.

Next of kin hasn't seen him.

Guys, wait a minute.
The M.E. report said

the gunshot residue was
on the father's right hand.

But he's wearing his
watch on his right arm,

which means he's most likely
left-handed.

Maybe someone
set the father up

to make it look like
he did it.

Excuse me.

Hotchner.

I talked to local police.

There's no pending divorce,
no recent job loss.

There's no obvious problems
the Yamadas were having,

so they're treating this sudden
disappearance as an abduction.

It's pretty extreme
to take an entire family.

Unless the son
was the primary target.

And the rest of the family
was in the way.

Yeah, remember sexual predator
Matthew Hoffman in 2010?

He killed a mother, son,
and family friend

just so he could take
the 13-year-old daughter.

If we're looking at a sexual predator,
Scott could still be alive.

Thank you.

Another family, the Acklins,
have just disappeared

from, uh, Lenexa, which is
a suburb of Kansas City.

A father, mother, 17-year-old daughter,
and 11-year-old son.

The family makeup
is almost identical to the Yamadas.

The father's in the middle
of a lawsuit for fraud,

so they may have
disappeared voluntarily.

We can't take that chance.

Exactly.
Wheels up in 30.

What do you want
from us?

He untied me.

Mackenzie,
help us. Hurry.

Mom--

Braden's not here.

Braden?

Do you see him?

No.

Braden?

We're locked in here.

Where are we?

The German author
Goethe wrote,

"Behavior is the mirror

in which everyone shows
their true image."

Aside from different
ethnicities,

the Yamadas and Acklins
were remarkably similar.

John Yamada was an engineer,

and his wife
was a bank teller.

Mike Acklin was
a stockbroker,

and his wife Debra
worked as a city clerk.

Bother upper-middle-class
families

living in nice suburbs.

Any chance these families
knew each other?

Not according to my vast,
far-reaching databases.

What about the kids?

Anything
stand out there?

According to teachers,
Scott Yamada was shy,

introverted. He reported
being bullied once.

And Braden Acklin
was recently diagnosed

with Asperger syndrome.

So the kids weren't winning
popularity contests.

You know, they could
have been prime targets

for a sexual predator.

Braden certainly
would be vulnerable.

Unlike classic autism,
language ability is intact

in people with Asperger's.
They appear to lack empathy

and have trouble
reading social cues.

Albert Einstein
supposedly had it,

as do some well-known
Silicon Valley types.

Well, how about you?

What's that?

Hey, Penelope,
you want to tap into

those vast and wide
databases of yours

and see if these families
crossed paths unwittingly?

Even if they didn't
know each other,

they may have gone
to the same place

and met the unsub
separately.

Yes, my sweet, delving into
the digital abyss as we talk.

We all need
to dig more deeply

for information about
both of these families.

And let's not forget this is
still and search and rescue

mission for Scott Yamada.

And if the unsub
sticks to his schedule,

we've got fewer than 3 days
to find the Acklins alive.

Yes, sir.
Agent Hotchner?

I'm Detective Carr.

This is Agent Jareau.

Hi.

Tricia Yamada's mother
is here,

as well as Mike Acklin's
brother.

Any luck finding
the drifter yet?

No, but we have
this composite sketch

we're getting out there.

It's crucial
that we find him.

Given the description
the road crew gave,

he could be our unsub.

We'll double up on canvassing
homeless camps and shelters.

Anything more
on the Acklin family?

Talked to Mike's secretary.

The lawsuit
really shook him up.

Plus he's behind
on his mortgage payments.

I gotta tell you,
some folks here

don't think these two cases
are related.

They think Mike
took his entire family

and walked away?

Times are tough these days.

Some people just
up and try to start over.

Where's Scott?

Where's my grandson?

We don't know,
but we're doing our best

to find him.

Mike's a victim
of the economy.

People have lost money,

so they just want
someone to blame.

Would he walk away
because of a lawsuit?

No way. Not in
a million years.

I was the screw-up
in the family.

He was always
the responsible one.

They were just
an ordinary family.

Who could have done this?

There's nothing
in the bathroom.

Look again.

We've been searching
for hours.

There's no way out of here.

Where's our son?!
What do you want from us?!

No, no, no, Kenz.
Kenz, don't drink that.

It might be poisoned!
I'm thirsty.

Why are you yelling at me?

I'm sorry.

I overreacted, ok?

Just don't eat
or drink anything.

Ohh!
Uhh!

Help!

Help us! Someone help!

Please!

We're in the middle
of nowhere.

Scott Yamada looks like
a typical 10-year-old boy.

This place
brings back memories.

When I was a kid,
I made a model of the Universe

out of salt.

Was it for
a school project?

No, it was a birthday
present for Carl Sagan,

but I don't think
he ever got it.

You know, by the way,

no offense earlier when I
suggested you had Asperger's.

None taken.
When did you do that?

And that's what
I love about you.

You're not overly sensitive
like some people.

I mean, think about
how much time we'd save

if everyone just
got straight to the point.

Yeah. Cut out all the handshakes
and how-do-you-dos.

Yeah.

This window
was opened recently.

It was hot the night
the Yamadas were abducted.

First floor, open window.
Easy entry for unsub.

Top bunk is made.

He probably wasn't
in bed yet.

Well, I think

he slept on the bottom.

Yeah, this tent probably
made him feel safe at night.

He was probably looking
at his fossils.

When the unsub entered,

he dropped one when
he was grabbed.

And then he was forced
out of his room.

It looks like they were fixing
themselves a late-night snack.

Beloved family dog
is left behind.

You know, Rossi, if this was
all a ruse to hide an escape,

it sure was
an elaborate one.

Then, again, people have staged
their own murders to disappear.

Rossi, look at this.

Broken coffee cup.

You think they were
caught off guard?

I mean, being parents, the Acklins
would have been hard-wired

to clean that up so their
kids don't get hurt.

It could have been staged.

It's possible,
but unlikely.

There's easier ways
to fake a forced entry.

Broken locks and furniture.

Busted-out window.

Nah, I definitely think
they were abducted.

It's not easy to subdue
so many people.

Are we looking at a team?

Yeah, this is Morgan.

All right, I got it.

Thanks, Blake.

So, the point of entry
at the Yamada house

was the son's bedroom.

So it would be possible for
one unsub to do it alone.

Especially if he had control
of their son.

Aah!

He'd want the biggest
threat, the father,

under control first.

Put 'em on
if you want him to live.

You take me.
You leave my family alone.

I said put 'em on!

The unsub forces the father
and daughter to wear hoods.

You!

Tie up their hands.

The mother's in the kitchen.

She ties up her husband
and the daughter.

Please--please
don't hurt us.

Braden, tie her up. Here.

Then the unsub makes the boy
tie up the mother's hands.

There's a lot of distance
between neighbors here.

Late at night, no one
would have heard a thing.

Please!

He's an 11-year-old boy!

It's ok, Kenz.

It's ok.

Where's my family?

They're safe.

If you behave,
they'll stay safe.

Are you mad at my dad?

Are you mad at my mom?

Why are you doing this?

Tell you what.

You get 3 guesses.

If you're right,
I'll let your family go.

If you're wrong,

they're dead.

Hey, what is that?

The construction site where
they found Scott Yamada's body

was shut down for two weeks
because of permit issues.

It just reopened.

The body would have been
easy to dump there.

It was outside the fence and there
were no security cameras or guards.

But he left the boy
near the front gate.

He knew
he'd be found quickly.

The M.E. said Scott Yamada
wasn't sexually assaulted or tortured.

C.O.D. was a single gunshot.
He died shortly after the family.

His body was dumped
3 days ago.

So it doesn't fit the profile
of a preferential sex offender.

The body was carefully
wrapped, though,

showing some concern
or remorse for the boy.

Well, what was the motive, then,

for kidnapping and killing
the rest of the family?

To get the boy alone
for card games and hot chocolate?

No, it's possible
the unsub

had some affinity
or affection for Scott.

Yes, or maybe
we have this all wrong.

I mean, what if the rest of the
family was the target all along?

And Scott was just
a tool to control them?

Well, the father was made to
look like the perpetrator,

either as a forensic
countermeasure or because

he was symbolic in some way
to the unsub.

Go ahead, Garcia.

Ok, I can only find
one connection

between these two families
and this is it.

They both vacationed
at a placed called Ravenwood Camp

outside of Topeka
at different times last year.

The Yamadas in April
and the Acklins in July.

We should check it out. We'll need
the names of all the staff and anyone

who overlapped the stays
of the two families.

Got it.

Mike, you've been doing that
all morning.

It is not working.

Do you think he knows
Braden's sick?

He's not sick.

Asperger's makes him
gifted in certain ways.

Mike, will you please stop!

Oh, my God.

Is that Vanessa?

, please!

Vanessa?

Can you see us?

Mike, tell your family
who this is.

It's Vanessa,
my son's tutor.

Why is she--

Tell them who she is.

He said it's our son's tutor.

Now, what did you do to Braden?

Last chance, Mike.

Who is Vanessa?

I told you already. I don't know
anything else about her.

The truth
will set you free, Mike.

What is he talking about?

Tell them,
or Braden is dead.

Come on, Dad,
just say it.

I was, uh...

I slept with her.

It only happened twice
and it was over.

I swear, she meant
nothing to me.

You all have to ask
yourselves why you're here.

Are you kidding me?

We're here because you
couldn't keep your pants on?

You endangered
this entire family?

You put us in the hands
of a psychopath who took our son?!

Who cares at this point
who dad slept with?!

We are trapped here
and Braden is with some psycho!

Deb--

Don't....

Talk to me.

Do you know what the biggest problem
in America is today?

We're losing the war
against antibiotic resistance.

Smartphones.
I saw this family

in a restaurant
the other day

and no one was talking
to each other.

They were all
on their phones.

Texting, tweeting,
emailing, what have you.

It's why the family unit
is dying.

Pretty extreme view.

Not when you see the result
of eliminating modern-day

distractions like we do.

Families ride horses
together.

They hike.
Roast marshmallows.

They reconnect.

Sounds idyllic.
Let me ask you this.

Did the Yamadas or the Acklins
seem troubled to you?

They pretended
like they weren't,

but you can't hide
that stuff.

From what I recall,
Mr. and Mrs. Yamada

argued in their cabin
at night.

The Acklins?
Huh. Hardly spoke to each other

the entire week
they were here.

So I guess you might say that their
stays weren't exactly successful.

We're not miracle workers.

We just want to start
the healing process.

Do you get angry
when it doesn't work?

Because you sent multiple
emails to both families

insisting they return to Ravenwood
soon or they'd regret it.

No offense, but you kind of
strike me as the type of guy

who needs to get
his point across.

So you think what?

I hurt them?

There's this thing
called marketing.

My tactics may be aggressive,
but they work.

So, you're not a murderer.
You're just a businessman.

Hey. So, Mrs. Acklin
was all over social media.

She posted lots
of happy pics of the family

and updated her status
almost daily.

"Mackenzie's on the short list
for prom queen.

Let's wish her luck."

Are all the messages like that?

Yeah, pretty much.

Everything's about
how wonderful the family is,

with lots of
exclamation points.

It's interesting, considering
the problems they've had.

What about the Yamadas?

Uh, yeah, they've got
their own web page, too.

Lots of photos of
a smiling, happy family.

Just like Debra Acklin.

Hey, sweetness,
what do you got?

Tidbits as juicy as you,
love shack. Listen up.

Debra Acklin has been diagnosed
with severe depression.

She's been seeing a therapist
for the last 5 years.

John Yamada has a numbered
offshore account in Panama

that he has made multiple
cash withdrawals from.

I found out about it
when I learned

that he visited there
by himself two years ago.

Well, that could have been for illegal
activity like drugs or gambling.

Oh, indeed it could have.

And then there's Debra's
various social media pages

and yeah, I know. We were just
taking a look at them.

You're not the only one.

There's someone with
an I.D. "All Eyes"

that has visited each page
every day for the last year

up until each family's disappearance.
Coincidence? Methinks not.

Can you track
the I.P. address?

No, I can't.
It's like Kryptonite.

It's been routed through
multiple proxy servers.

All right, thanks, mama.

We just picked up the drifter.

His name is Nathan Eads.
We ran him through ViCAP,

it turns out he's suspected
of robbing and killing a couple

in Omaha in '03.

Mr. Eads, please sit down.

How did you
find the Yamadas?

Yamada. They're a fine family
in Japan I have tea with.

How did you find
the dead family?

I was asleep in the ravine and they
appeared like magic,

not far away.

Like magic?

A sorcerer brought them
in a base camp of pleasure

and left them
in a state of peace.

Tell me, what color
was the base camp of pleasure?

Dark as the midnight sky.

I say he's guilty.

We're testing the dried blood
on his jacket right now

for a match with the Yamadas.

It's not him.

Are you sure?

He sounds wacky enough
to have done it.

No, his thought process
is too disorganized.

There's no way he's capable
of holding a family captive

for multiple days.

But he talked about
the bodies being dumped.

He was a witness.

And he describes
the unsub's vehicle.

In the nineties, when minivans were
getting popular,

the automakers in Japan called
them base camps of pleasure.

We're ready
to give the profile.

Do you want money
from my parents?

No. Two more guesses.

Do you have a crush
on Mackenzie?

No.

Last guess.

Want to try?

Do you know about
the Samurai?

They were warriors
who believed in loyalty and honor.

Their job was to protect
their lord and his family

and to kill themselves
in shame if they failed.

Would you like to paint one?

Familicides by non-family
members are rare.

Now, we're looking for
an unsub without a family

who is envious
and wants to destroy

the very thing
that he cannot have.

He was raised
in a dysfunctional family,

which he lost or may have
even murdered.

These abductions
were not random.

He monitored the families
on the Internet

and picked them because
their dynamics mirror his own,

yet they project the appearance
of perfection that he fantasizes about.

He blames these fathers
for their mistakes,

and then he punishes the families

and makes it appear as
if the father is the culprit.

And the young sons
who were abducted

are likely to be surrogates
for the unsub himself.

They may be at the age
he was when the negative

life-threatening event happened.

He connects to them,
therefore he may be

in a state
of arrested development.

This doesn't protect
the kids, however,

as evidenced in the killing
of Scott Yamada.

The unsub may have
seen this death as a merciful act.

He's familiar with the abduction
and body disposal sites,

and there's a secondary
crime scene in between

where he holds and interacts
with the families.

This secondary location
is secluded.

It's been set up in advance
for the crimes

and allows him
to be in complete control.

Our unsub is likely
in his mid-40s,

and he has the intelligence
to plot, plan, and effect

these abductions
and murders.

The vehicle he drives is
a dark minivan or cargo van,

probably with tinted
windows, soundproofing,

and retrofitted with restraints
to hide his victims inside.

And given his timeline,

he's probably already
surveilling his next family.

I just spoke with
Mackenzie Acklin's counselor.

She's been dating a boy
for the past year

who is bad news.

Darren Wilson.

He graduated two years ago.

Has a rap sheet.
He was dealing drugs

to rich kids
and professionals.

Is he still dealing?

Probably so.
He has a job downtown

at a check cashing
place.

Well, apparently Mackenzie has been
getting deeper into drugs.

Maybe she owed
someone money.

The family kidnapping
could be some kind of payback.

It's extreme, but we can't ignore
the criminal element here.

But there's no drug
connection with the Yamadas.

We don't know that.

It's unclear what John Yamada's
cash withdrawals were for.

JJ, let's go talk to Darren.

We gotta get past this.

I don't have to do
anything.

Would you look at me?

Vanessa died yesterday.

Our son
could be dead, too.

I already said I'm sorry.
What--what more do you want?

I want you to suffer.

I want you to crawl
across broken glass.

I want you to know
what it feels like

to have your heart
ripped out of your chest!

Go ahead, I'll take it.
Go ahead.

Stop it, mom, stop!

Vanessa came on to him.

I saw it.

Mackenzie, I don't care
if she was dancing naked

with the keys to
a Ferrari in her mouth.

You should have said,
no, thank you.

I am a married man
and stay the hell away.

What is that?

Those are my painkillers
from my surgery two years ago.

I thought you said
the housekeeper stole them.

Tell her what really
happened, Mackenzie.

I took them to get high.

Why does this even matter
to you?

Give me my brother back,
you creep!

You said you didn't start
taking drugs until last year.

Yeah, well, I lied.

Your pills were
the first drugs I ever took.

Did you know about this?

Stop! Stop blaming dad
for everything.

Are you implying
this is my fault?

Yeah. Maybe I am.

Maybe I took them
to see if you'd notice.

If I'd notice?

God, you are so checked out.

I even thought about setting
the house on fire once.

I'd just had a hysterectomy!

No! No, you've been like
this fake person behind

a fake smile forever.
Oh, don't try to turn this around.

I've done back flips
trying to help you!

Do you know hard it's been keeping
your addiction a secret from everyone?

Why do you care about that?
You're so concerned about appearances.

It doesn't matter!

Are you so naive as to
think that our daughter

could go to a good school
and--and have a decent job

when the world knows
that she is a junkie?

I am trying to protect
her future.

Why don't you try
being her mother,

taking care of her now?

We're agents Rossi
and Jareau from the FBI.

We need to talk
to Darren Wilson.

He's not here.

We were told
he was working this shift.

He didn't show.
I'm filling in.

Is Wilson absent a lot?

What can I say?
He's a bad-ass kid

who gets away with murder 'cause
his Uncle owns the joint.

Do you know this girl?
You seen her around?

No, but I've seen
that woman.

When?

Two weeks ago.
She came in for a loan.

5 Gs. I wrote it up.

And when was that loan due?

Last Friday.
She didn't pay it back.

Hmm.
[Cell phone rings]

Thank you.

Rossi.

Copy that.

The police just found
the body of Vanessa Hall,

Braden Acklin's tutor,

dumped on Route 32.

'cause of death is a 9-millimeter
gunshot to the chest.

Same as the other victims.

Seems to be our unsub's
weapon of choice.

T.O.D. is less than
24 hours ago.

Looks like she was bound
at the wrist and ankles, premortem.

Was she tortured?

No clear sign of it,

but she has bruising
and torn hair follicles

from fighting her assailant.

There's also motile semen
present.

So it's possible she was
raped before she was killed.

We've sent a sample
to the lab.

You're on speaker, Garcia.

I was just looking through
Vanessa's cell phone records,

and she got a text message
the night the Acklins were abducted.

Who was it from?

Ross Acklin.
That's Mike's brother.

You've already
talked to him.

"Meet at the Red Rose
Motel, room 8, 10 a.m."

Were you sleeping
with Vanessa?

No.

But Mike was.

I was setting up
a meeting for them.

Why would you do that?

He was worried that Debra
would check his cell phone.

I wouldn't put it past her.

So you don't like her
very much.

All she did was ride Mike about
money and spend it like crazy.

So you did him
this big favor

because you don't
care for his wife.

Look, I didn't want to.
Mikey begged me.

So why didn't you mention
any of this before?

It wasn't relevant.

I...

I mean lots of guys
have affairs.

According to her roommate,

Vanessa went to the Red Rose
Motel and was never seen again.

If Mike was already missing,

you're the only one
who knew she was there.

What, you think
I killed her?

Maybe you killed them all.

Mike had a family.
He had a young girlfriend.

As far as I can tell,
you have no one.

Maybe he had everything,
you had nothing.

Maybe you raped Vanessa
before you killed her.

I've been harassing
the police,

trying to get them
to investigate.

Why would I do that
if I were guilty?

The semen analysis came back.

It matches a DNA sample
from Mike Acklin

we picked up at his house.

No. You know what?

I refuse to be your scapegoat
anymore, Mackenzie.

I did not cause
your problems.

Of course not, Mom,
because you are so perfect.

Stop. Just stop it.
Both of you, stop, stop.

We don't know what
he's done to Braden.

Why are we here? He told us
to ask ourselves that.

Maybe it is my fault.
I...

I've been an inadequate
husband and father,

I admit that.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry, too, Dad.

Is this what you want?!

To watch us break down?

Darren?

Aah! Darren!

So, Debra Acklin borrows
5 grand from a loan shark,

which she should have
paid back 5 days ago.

Talk about asking
to get murdered.

Yeah, but if this
was about the money,

why did the unsub
kill the tutor?

That's a good question.

I mean, how does this
relate to the Yamadas?

The fact is, both families had more.
problems than they were letting on.

Which the unsub
was privy to,

otherwise why murder
the tutor?

The unsub knew
about the affair.

And John Yamada was made
to look like a family annihilator.

It's a way of shaming him,
forcing him to take responsibility.

He wasn't jealous of the families,
he was angry at them,

making them pay a price
for their mistakes.

And he would use anyone in
the family's periphery to do so.

We should see if any recent
homicides are connected

to the Yamadas.

So this guy was doing more
than stalking them online.

He knew their secrets.
But how?

You have a choice, Debra.

You can save him
or you can have the money.

Think about it.

Mom--mom, you have to
save him.

Why?

Why should I?

He is the reason that
you got hooked on pot

no.
And cocaine

and God knows
what else.

No, no, no, mom,
it's not like that.

Please, I love him.

You love him?
Mackenzie, he's a lowlife.

He's a lowlife
and I despise him.

No. I don't have to think about it.
I'll take the money.

No! No, mom, please,
you can't, you can't!

Remember, you're choosing
the money over someone's son.

Mom, mommy!
I don't care.

No, no, I'm doing us
all a favor.

Darren, no! No!

I'm gonna save us.
I'm doing us all a favor.

Debra Acklin definitely
had a shopping compulsion.

Lots of pricey handbags
and designer clothes

with the tags still on them.

Well, the bed's made,

but it's uneven.

Only one person's
been sleeping here.

My guess
is it's Debra.

That would explain the pillow
and the blankets

down in Mike's office.

Rossi, this house was built
in the seventies, right?

Looks like it to me.

But the interior's
been remodeled.

And I'd say within
the last few years.

It's a powerline
network adaptor.

That's an odd place
for the Internet.

Not if you're John Yamada
and you're camped out here.

Look at this.

Point spreads
for NFL games.

John was gambling
the family money away.

Hey, Morgan.

Same here.

Parents sleeping
in different beds.

Was this house
remodeled?

It's a Tudor Revival house,
which means it was built in the 1940s.

But I see hardware fixtures
from the 1980s,

composite window moldings
from 2000--

That would be yes.

Yeah, let me see.

Well, I'll be.

There were cameras
everywhere,

mainly in the lighting
wells and vents.

They did renovations, so
it could have been a contractor.

It'd be easy for someone
with that kind of access

to set up
a surveillance system.

And contractors are people
you can ignore

After they've been
in your house for a while.

You're on speaker,
Penelope.

Your theory is confirmed.

The Yamadas remodeled their
house in 2009, the Acklins in 2010.

The same general contractor?

Uh, negative.
Two different generals.

Some of the same subs-

Hockney Drywall, A.R. Electrical,
Milman and Sons Flooring...

A.R. Electrical,
one of the contractors

who found Scott Yamada's
body at the construction site

was Arthur Rykov.

- We need an address, Garcia.
- Here it comes.

Come on, where are you?
I gave you my answer.

Where is my money?

Isn't the more important
question, "Where is my son?"

What?

Where is he?

You give us back Braden,
you son of a bitch!

Mommy?

Daddy?

Braden. Braden...

What the hell is this?

I'm just confirming
the choice you made.

The money instead of
your son's life.

What?

Braden.

Braden!

Aah! No!

I never said
that I would kill my son.

You were willing to kill
someone's son.

Does it matter which one?

Just tell us what you want
and you can have it!

No, I don't want the money.
I'm so sorry.

I made a terrible mistake.
Please.

Please don't kill
my little Braden. Please...

No!

Arthur Rykov, 46.
Never married,

lives alone
on a 10-acre ranch.

He had a brush
with the law when he was 16,

and that's where we know
most of our info on him.

What happened
when he was 16?

He was questioned by police
regarding an assault

on a teacher at his school.

After his mother died,
he was raised

by his strict
Russian Orthodox father,

who saw his son as an obstacle
to his religious devotion.

Rykov says he fell in love

with the perfect family
across the street.

He watched them for years,
imagined he was one of them.

Until the day
he saw the teacher

kissing the father
in her car.

So Rykov attacked
the teacher.

He denied it. Police never found
any conclusive evidence, so...

So a 16-year-old boy
takes revenge on a teacher

for ruining his perfect
family.

So he's been looking for another
one to replace them all this time?

If we're here
because of me,

I will take full
responsibility.

Are you changing your mind?

Yes!

That can be done.

But every choice
has a consequence.

I'll do anything.

There's a key
taped under the bar.

Under the stereo is a locked cabinet.
Open it.

Open the box inside.

Open it.

If you all kill
yourselves now,

you can save Braden.

What kind of sick
game are you playing?

This isn't a game.
This is life.

You all turned it
into a game.

No! No, we didn't!

You gambled everything
you had, for what?

A little excitement?

Everyone goes through
stuff like this.

We're--we're human beings.

Things happen!

No, things don't
just happen.

You made choices.

The wrong choices.

Rykov didn't have the social skills
to create his own family.

Well, there's no such thing
as a perfect family.

It's a childhood fantasy.

Maybe he thinks
he can fix them.

That's why
he kidnaps them.

But when he fails,
he has no choice but to kill them.

But why start now?
Why in his mid-40s?

He needed a remote location
to carry out his fantasies.

Right you are, girl wonder.

It looks like he saved up
for the place,

bought it two years ago,
paid all cash.

Hey, the Yamadas were
about to send their daughter

to a boarding school
in Ohio.

That must have been the trigger.
He had to kidnap the family

while they were all
still together.

What have I done?

I drove you all away.

This is all my fault.

No. How is killing ourselves
the right choice?

It doesn't make any sense.

If you truly
loved each other,

you would die
for each other.

Who are you?
Why do you care

how much
we love each other?

Because a family
is a precious gift

you can't take for granted.

Do it, Mike.

Do it, Mike.

Do it now.

Do it.

I can't. I can't.

I won't kill my wife
and child.

You won't save Braden?

Please. He's the only one
of us who's innocent.

Please.

No, I won't choose.
I won't choose.

I love you all.

There was another family
before you

who wouldn't die
for each other,

so they didn't deserve
a chance at happiness.

No!

Aah!

FBI. Show me your hands.

FBI! Back away from her.

Sir, back away.
Let me help her.

I shot myself.

Stand up.

They needed to appreciate
what they had.

There's no blood.

It's loaded with blanks.

Mommy!

Arthur Rykov,

you're under arrest.

There you go.

Braden!

You know, there was
an automatic weapon hidden in the wall.

Rykov could have
killed the family anytime.

I doubt if he would have
let them go.

"One of the deep
secrets of life

"is that all
that is really worth doing

is what we do for others."

Lewis Carroll.

- Hello, family.
- Hi.

I would just like to say that I
love each and every one of you,

even you, Dr. Alex Blake.
It's a new love, but still.

And I am never going to take
any of you for granted ever.

Ohh. We love you, too,
Penelope.

Thank you. Now hug me.

Ok.

Does this mean we get
drinks every time we come home?

We will discuss it
when you hug me.

You're too sweet,
baby girl.

Cheers.
Cheers.

The director's been named
new head of acquisitions at the museum,

so that's why there's
an opening at the gallery--

You're taking this job.

Could you be a little
less enthusiastic?

- It's in New York.
- But it's a great opportunity.

But I probably skipped the step
where you want me to ask you to stay.

Ok, Mr. Profiler,
what else am I thinking?

Oh, I have no idea
what you're thinking,

but I think it would be
inconsiderate

to not think
what was best for you.

But I feel like this is the start
of good-bye.

I may get
my heart broken.

You're not gonna get rid
of me that easily.

What are you saying?

New York
is a train ride away.

I can be there
every chance I have.

You really think
we can pull it off?

Sure. Why not?

Um...

my 2:00 just canceled.

I got a train schedule
at my house.

You want to
take a look at it?

I think we have to.
