All language subtitles for Profiler s04e06 To Serve & Protect

Good.

Washington Associated Press, November
21st. Get out of my face! Get out of my

face!

The Food and Drug Administration
announced today that the medicinal use

marijuana... Man, I got a job to do.

I got a job I gotta do!

They just don't understand what's at
stake here!

They don't understand suffering!

Dude needs himself a cocktail.

You always do with this good?

Always.

You've never tasted anything like it.

80 % arabica for foundation, 10 % Costa
Rican for fullness, and bouquet.

What's the other 10 %?

The reason you've never tasted anything
like it.

Thanks so much for picking me up,
Bailey. I hate leaving my car at the

Three murders in the Benton Park West
area of St. Louis within 18 days.

Two in the past week. They'll be as
confident as on the rise.

To be preserved last night's crime
scene.

Merv Bernstein's the detective in
charge. He's taking care of it.

Don't worry, it's our plane.

Can't leave without us.

Hey, you gonna sleep all day or what?

Muff, Muff, I can't find my jeans.

Yeah, well, look on the chair by the
bed.

Not on the chair.

Bailey, this is Mike.

Mike, this is Bailey.

How you doing, man?

I had some kind of moves.

Demetrius Pope.

Point guard with the tar heels.

Until he blew out his knee.

I saw him at the final four a few years
ago.

God, he could have been a star.

He's not going to be a star now.

This is a crush larynx.

Based on the linear demarcation across
the midline, I'd say a single blow from

relatively blunt object.

Tire iron crowbar. Death was
instantaneous.

Still no linkage between the victims.

I've been through Social Security and
about a hundred other things.

None of them has a police record.

I mean, except for the location where
they were killed. It was coming up

What's wrong, George? You sound lousy.

Must be a bad connection.

You seen a doctor since the accident?

Daily. I played 18 holes yesterday.

I mean, the only thing wrong with me is
I can't make a three -footer.

Okay? I'll call you as soon as I get
something you can use. Bye.

I have John Grant checking the area for
witnesses. He's looking into shelters,

abandoned buildings.

Witnesses. This part of town has got a
better chance of finding uranium.

Waitress in her 40s. Med student. He was
26.

Both white. Now this kid.

Robbery wasn't the motive.

So is he killing just to get his rocks
off? I don't know why he's doing it,

Merv. Serial killers don't usually cross
racial lines.

How's Gloria?

I'd have to ask her attorney.

No.

29 years.

I'm sorry, man.

What does it mean? I'm in a swell
apartment.

Free brunch on Sundays.

My son is in the Amazon hugging trees.
My daughter drives a Harley.

Things couldn't be better.

This newspaper guy was killed by blunt
force to the throat.

The waitress was killed by a puncture
wound to the ear that penetrated the

brain.

Then med student by blunt force trauma
to the back of the head.

Emmy pulled out wood chips from her hair
and scalp.

Weapons of opportunity?

Which he used to inflict only one wound.

What does that say?

He probably knows about anatomy.

Smack someone in the head with a two -by
-four.

How much anatomy do you have to know?

But the med student was killed during
the day in a relatively crowded place.

Maybe there's no witnesses because the
killer blends in with the environment.

He becomes invisible.

Last night I was thinking about
Quantico.

You, me, roasted goat, couscous.

Youngest kid couldn't have been more
than six.

When Child Protective Services took them
away, he asked me if he'd be able to

stay with his brother and sister.

I lied to him.

When he was little, he always used to
cry when I left him at school.

He wanted to be with me.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Pope.

Do you know anyone who'd want to do
this?

Was he involved in any activities that
could have put him in danger?

He was a good boy.

We're trying to establish a motive.

What you mean is why it was his fault.

Why he deserves to die.

No, ma 'am. My son had dreams of glory
that never came true.

But he took his disappointments like a
man.

What happened to him makes no sense.

And don't you dare say that he did
things to deserve it.

Don't you dare.

Where is his ring?

Did you people take it?

There's no mention of a ring.

They were national champions.

He always wore that ring.

I faxed the description of the ring to
local pawn shops and dealers.

The killer might be trying to turn it
into cash.

This is not about money.

The last victim had no money on him, but
we don't know whether he was carrying

any in the first place. The waitress...

Went out for a smoke, left her tips
inside.

The med student's a med student. He was
broke.

A ring like that is worth something.

I like to cover all our bases.

Murph said that the number of homeless
in Benton Park has doubled in the last

five years.

The victims weren't homeless.

No, but the killer might be.

Maybe that's why we can't find a
witness.

Homeless are part of the landscape.

He can move around without being
noticed.

So the more reason for him to take the
rings, the more that he's going to need

the money.

He's escalating.

The last two murders came twice as fast
as the first.

What's his trigger?

Could be mentally ill, schizophrenic.
Most schizophrenics aren't prone to

violence. Well, what triggers him?

I'm going to go get a better sense of
the neighborhood.

I'll have a uniform go with you.

No, thanks, Murph, but the last thing I
need is to draw attention.

Then plainclothes, please.

Make an old man happy.

Eight pawn shops within the kill zone.

We're doing a follow -up right now.

I'll get with your people.

Any chance of you patching it up with
Gloria?

Hey, she left me after 29 years.

I wouldn't patch it up for all the tea
in China.

If she could crawl on broken glass, I
wouldn't patch it up.

Call him, Irv.

No Sunday brunches can get lonely.

Bailey, it's me.

Maybe the killer has a military
background.

He's efficient. He uses weapons of
opportunity.

He might be trained for that.

Could be targeting this ten block area
as a way to establish or protect what he

feels is his own territory.

Yeah, I'm on my way back.

Taxi!

What till?

Newbury Park.

Cushion Franklin.

Fine, just open the door.

Any proposal to increase the minimum
wage?

The House of Representatives made it
today that on both sides... You've got

second to get out of the way or I'm
going to run you over!

At times, the debate reminded them of a
daytime reality show, and they were

right.

Economic impact is such a move to the
backseat of partisan politics.

Partisan politics.

Make this call to Franklin!

I'd say death was caused by a very bad
headache.

The nasal cartilage is jammed into his
brain.

No weapon.

I don't think so.

Based on the lack of subdural abrasion.

So he used his fist?

Fist, palm, elbow.

Where are we on the military?

George's work.

Do you think he learned about violence
in boot camp?

Or as a result of being married?

My counselor says I shouldn't bother
about my feelings.

Wish I had better news.

I narrowed the search to males aged 20
to 50 with a military record living or

working within five miles of Benton Park
West, and we're still talking

thousands. Highlight the ones with a
history of mental problems or violent

behavior and make a second grouping of
those with financial difficulties,

marriages, a lot of stress.

Okay, great. I've already started
something like that.

You sound better, Georgie.

Yeah, I changed headsets and bought a
book on putting.

Talk to you later.

I come bearing gifts.

Gift, actually.

From Monty's Pawn Shop on East Grand.
You gotta love their motto.

Cash for stuff.

Made General Norman Schwarzkopf.

That's how he signed the ticket.

Went and pawned this.

North Carolina.

Engraved initials DP.

Demetrius Pope.

Pretend the one this guy served in the
desert saw him in the Schwarzkopf.

You were right about him turning the
ring in for cash.

But then he took the bread and did some
impulse buying.

Up to now, he's used weapons of
opportunity.

Maybe he's tired of improvising.

Wants to plan his next attack.

Nothing about the killing seems to have
been planned.

Not the threat of the victim, not the
weapon.

Go back to the part where he puts the
knife in his pocket.

Yeah, right there. Stop.

Look, there's a name on his jacket, but
I can't read it.

Assuming it's his.

Could have gotten the jacket from a
surplus store.

Or a shelter.

Let's get this to George.

I can have it sent over the T -line.

Put his description on the air. Double
up foot patrols in the area.

And have a unit check out all the
shelters for this guy.

I know there are no guarantees in life.

All this kid wants is to stay with his
brother and sister and with very little

effort you can make that happen Okay
with a lot of effort, but all these kids

have is each other Yeah, get back to me

Almost

forgot

At your apartment?

After what happened between us and
Quantico, I know you work fast.

Nothing happened between us and
Quantico.

You always read other people's phone
messages?

Helps fight the tedium.

I bore easily.

Well, there's one thing we agree on.

Killings haven't been so much about
anger as fear.

Maybe he wasn't trying to establish his
territory.

He might be trying to protect himself
from his victims because he's afraid of

them. Next military man afraid of a 93
-pound waitress.

What if she's not a 93 -pound waitress
to him?

But let's say he's battling some sort of
psychosis or he's tormented by his

nightmares. He might be mistaking his
victims for other people, people in his

past. Like who?

Well, the victims come from all walks of
life.

So does the military.

Maybe they're reminding him of people
that abused him when he was in the

service. Well, when I was in the
service, we had a distinct shortage of

-pound drill sergeants.

Well, the power to abuse has nothing to
do with size and everything to do with

rank.

George was able to make out the first
two letters on the guy's name tag.

H .A. It narrows it down, but there's a
lot of possibilities to run through.

If the jacket's his.

Oh, you are full of it, Kevin. Hey,
what's a babe like her gonna look at you

for? Hey, hey, hey, hey, shut up.

Check it out.

You wanna take him?

Take him for what?

Laughs.

Hey!

Cool knife, man.

Use it or lose it.

H -A -N -L -E -Y.

Tom, by the knife, why didn't he use it?

Neck was twisted like a pretzel.

Probably grabbed from the back or from
the side. One quick snap from someone

definitely knew what he was doing.

Maybe I should go back to Vice. I could
keep regular hours.

John, stand up.

Daddy! Hey, guys. How you doing?

Come here.

I had a bad dream last night. You did?

What about it?

I forgot, but I came upstairs and you
weren't there.

Well, I'll be there for now on, okay?

Mm -hmm. Huh?

Hey, why don't you guys go outside and
wait in the car? Mom will be out in a

second. We'll catch you after school,
all right? Mm -hmm. Come here.

Come here.

Go ahead. Down here.

I'm not going through this anymore. Call
them. You have to get help.

Nancy. You're having blackouts again.
You have to see the doctors.

I can't. Why not?

Because I think they're the ones who did
this to me.

Oh, honey, no.

No.

They would never do anything to hurt
you. Really.

Really. You're confused.

Otherwise, you'd never even think of
that.

How long do these blackouts last?

I don't know.

I come out of them and I wind up
bleeding. I don't know how I got there.

I don't know.

Okay, you know what? I'm going to call
the doctors and we're going to... No.

Promise me.

Nancy, please. You have to promise me.

What? Promise me that you won't call
them.

Chris, I want you to be all right. I'm
going to be all right. Please.

Okay, I do. Okay? I do. You promise?
Yes, I promise you, sweetie. I promise.

It's okay. I promise.

I promise.

Okay.

Okay.

I'm going to be fine.

You sure? Yeah. I'm going to be okay.
Hey, it went away before.

It'll go away again.

Okay?

You know what? I could take the kids. I
could come right back. Honey, go to

work.

All right? I'm going to sleep most of
the night anyway. I love you. I love

too.

Bye.

Can't get a word in with this guy. He
must know Gloria.

Have you called her?

What are you hocking me?

I enjoy brunch alone.

His name is Benjamin R.

Hanley, 38, no permanent address, served
in the Army, PFC, 88 through 92.

That's his dog?

Sixth Battalion, got an early discharge
for medical reasons.

History of mental problems dating back
to childhood.

His old man locked him in the attic for
weeks on end in addition to other quirky

behavior.

I don't think he's the killer.

He's the guy from the tape.

I didn't recognize him because there was
no sound on the tape.

But I saw him yesterday, a block from
where Pope was killed. He was ranting

then, too.

He could never move through the city
unnoticed.

But your guy said Hanley's a Gulf War
vet with combat training.

Your efficient killer. The killer was
able to get close enough to his victim

without arousing concern.

They were dead before they knew what hit
him.

Hanley? He has a car alarm going off.

You wouldn't let him anywhere near you.
I didn't. He had the ring.

He could have picked it up after the
victim was dead.

I'm supposed to believe the killer was
funneling Hanley around?

They were in close proximity to at least
two of the crime scenes.

We're only talking about a ten block
area.

Maybe the killer is not homeless.

Maybe he's one of the businessmen that
work in the area.

America is fast becoming a third -rate
educational power.

And if this trend is not reversed, the
improvement of the technological power

will be over.

Well, I could... It may cost me my
hearing, but I'm not done with him.

The killer could be living part of his
life in an altered state.

In pieces, fractured episodes he isn't
even aware of.

What, hallucinations?

He could have had them all his life. The
military could have had nothing to do

with it.

Or he could have been fully functional
without any signs of psychosis.

Until something traumatic happened to
him in the military.

Seeing his buddies blown away or running
away from combat.

That would tend to make him passive and
withdrawn or kill as aggressive.

Might have been in special ops.

Took part in some kind of melee
incident.

Guilt converted into rage.

He could think that his victims know
about his guilt and that's how he's

them.

Rage can burn it into paranoia.

I'm sorry I had to run out on your mic.

Tell Mom and Dad that I'll call them
later.

What?

Why didn't you tell me Mike's your
brother?

Because you took one look at him and you
formed an opinion.

If you walked into John's apartment and
he was bouncing some babe off the wall,

you would have said, attaboy, bada
-bing!

I stopped using Bada Bing years ago.

Malone. Well, I'll tell you one thing.
There is no shortage of psychologically

damaged vets out there. But I got
something I think is going to narrow the

Wait a minute, George. Let me put you on
the box.

Okay. During the Gulf War, Allied
bombers struck frontline Iraqi bunkers

our troops were advancing on them. And
some of those bunkers contained a

broom of biological weapons.

Our troops were exposed to it? Yeah.
Sixth Battalion ran across some chemical

agents they had never seen before.

The Pentagon, obviously, is trying to
keep a lid on it, but my guesstimate is

that 3 ,000 to 5 ,000 of our guys were
exposed.

What were the symptoms?

In some cases, severe hallucinations,
delusions, stuff that required long

treatment, and in others, there was a
delayed effect, months, even years.

Hanley was in the Sixth Battalion.

Sure, a thousand other guys.

George, of the list you've already
compiled, can you tell how many 6th

vets are living in the area?

Those kids would have been better off if
I never made that call.

George identified 11 vets who live
within a 50 -mile radius of Greater St.

Louis.

Guys from the 6th Battalion who were
exposed to chemical weapons in Iraq.

I'll have units sent to all the
locations.

Get me a dispatch.

I want 11 cars ready to move.

Honey?

Chris?

Oh, God.

Hello, I need to talk to Dr. Harris.

It's about my husband, Christopher
Langston. He was a lieutenant in the 6th

Battalion.

No, no, he can't call me back. I have to
talk to him now. It's an emergency.

Please, I have to speak with him, okay?

Yes, Colonel Weston. I understand. I
think the trouble is that... The patient

aware of the experiments.

The program's integrity must be
protected at all costs.

I see. Yes, Doctor. We'll eliminate the
problem.

I'll try to bring him in this afternoon.

Please, I was just trying to help.

You were trying to help me, Doc?

You were trying to help me?

Doctor, you know what? That's getting a
little old.

I trusted you.

We all trusted you.

What you did was wrong.

No, it was wrong.

There were hundreds of us, and we were
loyal. And you took that loyalty, and

spit it back in our faces.

We volunteered because we thought it was
our duty to help our fellow soldiers.

All this for the long -term betterment
of the United States military.

Well, vaccine my ass.

This didn't have anything to do with any
vaccine.

You used us, and you tried to forget
about us when you were done.

You betrayed us.

Oh, I know. You were following your
orders, right? Well, guess what? We were

following orders.

Now, I'm going to take you back to that
site of that betrayal.

And when the colonel comes back from
patrol, I'm going to use you to make him

admit the truth.

And then I'm going to kill you both.

Now move.

So of the original 11, we've accounted
for five.

Ted Fiorito was killed in a shootout
with police in June of 96.

He went berserk in a convenience store
and shot two people before he was taken

down. And Richardson has spent the last
two years confined to a VA hospital.

Episodes of extreme disorientation and
delirium.

And all of these guys were exposed to
chemicals in Desert Storm.

They were in the 6th Battalion.

Do any of them have a history of spousal
abuse or other domestic violence?

George?

Yeah, I'm bringing up the data.

Okay. Last June, Steve Boyer was
arrested for pushing his wife down a

stairs.

And three years ago, Chris Langston was
questioned by police for battering his

own car with a shovel.

Both these guys live within the zone?

Langston in Newbury Park.

Boyer in East Dayton.

We got a hostage situation.

Guy holding his wife at night point.

What's the location?

East Grand and Taylor.

Security guard found a car outside,
registered to Christopher Langston.

Do we have containment?

Yes, sir.

All the exits are barricaded and wired.

They can't get out. They're in the
basement.

Eyes and ears.

We've got induction mics on the first
floor.

Telephone? Negative. But we've got a
sniper moving into position.

This place is a mess.

He's having a tough time lining up a
shot.

What, you think you were going to get
some kind of promotion?

Huh? Is that what this was to you?

Building a life while destroying others.

Doesn't sound very Hippocratic to me.

Does it sound very Hippocratic to you?

Doctor. Huh?

Where's the entry to the basement?

Freight elevator.

Lieutenant, this is Cabin.

I've established position, but the shot
is minimal.

The hostage is tied up in a chair, Lex
is pacing around. I can't tell if it's a

crossbow, sir.

Is the hostage in immediate danger?

Repeat, sir.

We've lost communication with the
sniper. Is it yours?

Who's he talking about?

He said something about a colonel.

But he didn't mention a name.

He's looking for authority.

What's commanding officer?

George, we need the name of the colonel
in command of Langston's unit in the 6th

Battalion. As much background on
Langston as you can find.

What is taking him so long?

He must consider you dispensable, too.

Kind of like we were.

Right, Doc?

I wonder if your conscience ever bothers
you.

You know, if you lie awake at night
thinking of all the lives you ruined.

See what happens when you follow orders,
Doc.

Sir, my earphone's dead.

I'm going to talk him through this.

But if he makes a threatening move to
the hospital, you take him out.

Lieutenant.

Colonel Weston.

You wanted me here.

I'm here.

Then you know why I wanted you here.

You've got a hostage.

She's fine.

For the moment.

Whether she stays that way is up to you.

What do you need from me?

The truth.

About what?

Don't play games with me. You know
exactly what I want. You stay right

I want the truth about what you did to
me.

About what you did to all of us.

That information is...

That's just your way of hiding the
truth.

You know what?

No more.

I want the truth and I want the whole
world to know about it.

Lieutenant, don't. Don't you lieutenant
me. I said stand down.

Listen to me.

You know what?

I'm not under your command anymore,
Weston, okay?

That's right.

That's right, you're not. You're damn
right, I'm not.

Do you have snipers up there?

How many?

How many?

Mom.

You just want to pick me up.

Let her go.

I admired you.

I worshipped you.

We all worshipped you, you hypocritical
bastard.

That's correct, Lieutenant.

There was a publicity.

I'm George, Dutty on Langston.

His father was career army.

A hero in Vietnam.

Check the cop.

These are key.

Didn't we mean anything to you?

Huh?

You said, you're my boys!

Well, you sacrificed your boys.

You sacrificed us.

Bailey, Langston was a scout. He was
ROTC.

Everything about him has been about
service and honor.

Sacrifice.

He needs to know that his wasn't in
vain.

Lieutenant, I want to talk to you.

I have something to tell you.

Talk to me.

Let her go first.

You've got a division up there.

She's all I've got. She stays until I
say so.

What I'm about to tell you is highly
classified.

But you're a good soldier, and you
deserve to know.

Okay.

You were an unwitting participant in a
medical experiment.

The side effects of which weren't known
at the time.

But your sacrifice, your sacrifice saved
lives.

Hundreds, maybe thousands.

Your heroism, which has had to remain
secret all these years, is just as

selfless as that of the men and women
who gave their lives in combat.

There are families all over America.

You wouldn't have husbands and fathers
if it weren't for you.

Why didn't they tell us, sir?

I don't know, son.

They said you wanted to see me.

I'll pick you up at 11.

You too.

Bailey.

Gloria and I are having brunch on
Sunday.

I'm glad, man.

I figured, what the hell?

It's included in the rent.

What now?

George did some digging.

Chris Langston never served in Desert
Storm.

He was stateside the entire time he was
in the army.

For a six -month period, there's no
accounting for him at all.

What's his condition?

He's still on the sedation.

Maybe his wife knows something about
those missing six months.

Malone.

Uh -huh.

Why am I not surprised?

Langston's been transferred to a
military facility.

Where?

Let's classify.
