Megan.

Megan.

Look, can we talk about this?

There's nothing to talk about,
Jamie.

How many times do I have to tell you?

I didn't do it.

You know me.

Don't raise your voice to me.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean it to come out like that,
okay?

Stay away from me.

This isn't over.

More papers for me to sign?

Never ends.

Yeah.

You alright?

Yeah, I'm fine.

It's just a headache.

Listen, this can wait.

Go home, get some rest.

No, I'm fine, really.

No, you're not.

All this business, this stress,
I mean, it just eats you up.

Just take the rest of the day off.

Maybe you're right.

Have you heard anything about the money?

We're going to the police.

I sent Jamie home.

He's under investigation.

I feel terrible about this.

Never feel bad about doing the right
thing.

And remember, Jamie brought this on
himself.

Go home.

Thank you, Todd.

Can I see what you're drawing,
Brian?

I recognize that carriage house.

You've remembered every detail.

It's beautiful.

Thanks.

Let's take a walk to the community center
after lunch.

Hmm?

You can bring your drawing and show
everyone.

Okay.

Hold up, I forgot my phone.

Where do I put it?

Just hang on.

Wait right there, Brian.

Brian?

Brian?

Mark, Rex, glad you two got here quickly.

What have we got?

Well, it's twofold.

Emma Jansa reported her 12-year-old
autistic son, Brian, missing.

Banished from the neighborhood.

Yeah, take a look at this.

This was recorded from the office's own
security camp.

You see Brian and his mother here on the
street?

And the mother ducks in for a second.

Brian waits on the sidewalk when a woman
crosses the street and walks past the Van.

Watch this.

Snatch job.

You know who the victim is?

Megan Schaefer, according to the ID found
in the purse she dropped.

She's a lawyer right here at Wilkins Law.

And the abductor?

No idea.

The Van's plates were stolen off of a car
in Flat Rock three days ago.

I put a bolo out on similar vans,
but they're super common.

So Mark arrest?

Yeah.

Okay, so here, here's Brian running away.

Traumatized.

There's not enough doubt.

Okay, so we can't see the face of the
abductor, but the boy may have.

Okay, call me when you get back.

We need to move on this.

Find the boy fast.

Right.

That boy can save Megan's life.

Yeah, we have dozens
of uniform officers

scouring the neighborhood,
but so far nothing.

What is it, Rex?

What do you got there?

Pencil crayon.

Brian's an accomplished artist.

Yeah.

His mother found the picture he dropped.

It's inside.

Here you go.

Oh, Sarah's in there now.

Okay.

Well, Rex and I will check in before we
begin the search.

Megan's parents just received a ransom
demand.

I'm gonna talk to him.

Okay.

Hey, okay.

What do you have?

I never leave Brian alone.

Never.

When Brian was young, we noticed something
was different.

Eventually, we got the diagnosis of
autism.

And a couple years later, my husband died
in a car crash.

It was just Brian and I.

I must have been very difficult.

Yeah, it was devastating, but we kept
going.

And eventually, Brian did speak.

No, it was never about speaking.

It was about him finding his own way of
communicating.

One day, his grandmother bought him some
colored pencils, and he he just started

making these amazing drawings,
and everything changed.

Oh no, they are amazing.

It's incredible detail.

Yeah, he does it all from memory.

So drawing became his way to communicate?

He rarely speaks, just a word or two every
once in a while.

This is his latest.

It's from this morning,
and as soon as I saw

it on the sidewalk, I knew
something was wrong.

We're gonna find him.

We've got officers to call me in the
neighborhood.

Emma, there's a chance that
your son saw something that

could help us find the young
woman who's been abducted.

He must be so scared.

Do you have any idea where Brian might
have gone?

No, but I wish I did.

He has a range of responses when he gets
upset.

He can be really disoriented and fight
back if he feels threatened.

Canada, Rex and I take the drawing.

His scent will help us track him.

Of course.

Thank you.

Okay, Rex, come on.

Wait at home instructions to come.

Follow precisely or there will be
consequences.

Who would do this?

Megan's never hurt anyone.

Well, evidently it's someone who's trying
to extort money from you.

You have a chain of successful produce
stores, but could also be other motivations.

Such as?

Someone who's trying to hurt you by taking
Megan?

No one.

No one dislikes us that much.

Are you sure?

Possibly someone who's upset with your
business?

Well, we've had a few
unhappy customers, an

angry supplier or two,
but nothing serious.

Still, we'll need a list of names.

Of course.

It could also be someone with a grudge
against Megan.

Someone associated with one of her cases,
perhaps.

That's Jamie.

I'm sorry, who's... who's Jamie?

Jamie Brenton.

He works at the same firm.

He and Megan were
living together till recently,

but she moved back
home a couple weeks ago.

She texted that she was
leaving early from work

today, walking, because
she had some thinking to do.

And what happened with this Jamie?

She... she wouldn't tell us.

She's an extremely private person.

We've always respected that.

How did Jamie take the break-up?

It's like Richard says, Megan keeps these
things to herself.

But who takes getting dumped well?

To be honest, I've always thought there
was something off about Jamie.

Stop.

Brian.

Hey.

No, it's okay.

I'm with the police.

Your mom... your mom said us to find you.

Right?

Everything's all right.

Just... just... just calm down.

No, no, Rex...

Nice work, partner.

And Brian still isn't communicating?

No, nothing.

I was trying to help
by getting Brian to draw

what he saw, but
he's been through a lot.

Any idea how long it'd be like this?

He's our only eyewitness.

No, no, his mother says he'll come out of
it when he's ready.

Okay, until then, we focus on the
abduction.

Megan's parents said that she broke up
with a boyfriend from the same outfit.

The mother wasn't too fond of him.

You know what, Mark?

Meet me at her firm.

I will do.

Anything?

No, and I know Brian would want to help
try and find Megan, but right now he can't.

I understand you're both doing everything
you can.

Rex and I need to rejoin the search for
Megan.

Yeah, of course.

That poor woman.

If something changes
with Brian, will you... I will.

Rex?

Thanks for.

Speaking with us, Todd.

What can you tell us about Jamie and
Megan?

They came to me about a year ago to ask
about interoffice relationships.

You know, they weren't breaching any HR
policies, so the firm gave them the okay.

They seemed like a nice happy couple.

Megan's parents told me that they broke up
recently.

They had, just a couple weeks ago.

Any idea why?

This is rather sensitive.

I think that they were already having
problems, and Megan came to me with a

complaint she received from one of our
developer clients.

What sort of complaint?

They noticed irregularities
in several of their

escrow accounts, and Jamie
was the point person here.

The long and short of it is, funds that
should be in the account aren't.

We were actually just about to come to the
Ask JPD for assistance.

You think that Jamie took the money?

We can't be totally sure, but it seems
likely.

Did you confront him?

Yes.

As a matter of fact, he was suspended this
morning.

The uniforms are jacked.

There's no sign of Jamie at his apartment.

So Jamie's suspended.

He's angry at Megan.

Plus, he needs the ransom money to replace
what he stole.

He knows the route that she would take
home.

So he waits out front, and when she
passes, he grabs her.

But what I don't get is how he thought
he'd get away with it.

I mean, he must have known that we'd be on
to him right away.

Well, maybe he wasn't thinking straight.

The most important thing is that if it is
Jamie, we find out where he is,

and what he's done with Megan.

Why are you doing this?

Just let me go!

Okay,

what do you got on Jamie Bregden?

32 years old, graduate of University of
Toronto in Osgoode Hall.

Called to the bar four years ago.

Moved here when he was offered the
position at Wilkins.

Has he gotten in any trouble before?

Fender bender, traffic tickets,
that's it.

I don't like tracking him down,
I take it.

We've got Ebola out on him.

Does he own any other property?

Any place that he might have taken Megan?

None that I can find.

And we've been interviewing his friends,
colleagues, but no luck there either.

Is there anything else?

Well, tracked Jamie's cell phone and went
dark just after 10 A.M.

What about the vehicle?

It was an SUV, Van's not his.

Okay, check stolen
vehicles, rental companies,

any place where he
could have gotten that Van.

Yeah, I'm already on it
and I've been tracking Jamie

and Megan's bank card
transactions, but so far nothing.

What about the text from the kidnapper?

He was sent via an anonymous texting site.

He also used a VolP burner app and,
I suspect, a burner phone.

It's gonna take a while to ID him.

Okay, keep working on it.

And dig deeper into the missing money from
the law firm.

There may be something there.

You betcha.

Sarah has forensic results.

Oh,

hey, I was just coming to see you.

Yeah, me too.

Other than the victim's briefcase and
purse, the only meaningful evidence we

recovered are a few strands of brown hair
that we think belong to the abductor.

Jamie has brown hair.

So do tens of thousands of other
Islanders.

So nothing directly linking him to the
abduction?

No.

Any word from the kidnapper?

Not yet, but it's coming soon.

I think our best bet is Brian providing us
with a description of the abductor,

because then we can
either eliminate Jamie as a

person of interest or we
make him our prime suspect.

Agreed, but how do we get him
communicating again?

Autistic children often react positively
to animals, especially dogs.

And Rex did calm Brian when we found him.

Maybe he can help him again.

You think you can do that?

Yeah.

We've never had a pet.

Just being a single mom, it never seemed
like... It seemed like too much.

But Brian seemed to connect with Rex.

I mean, I saw it firsthand.

Rex calmed her son when he was
overwhelmed.

And he still is overwhelmed.

Brian's been through a really traumatic
experience.

It would be for any kid.

He just... He needs time
to process and calm down.

Okay.

But the truth is, we might not have that
much time.

Time to find Megan alive.

And if Rex can help Brian process faster
and find that calm...

I have an autistic cousin, Emma.

We grew up together.

So I have a little understanding of how
hard this must be for you.

But I think you know that Brian would want
to help if he could.

He's a good kid.

And sensitive.

Artistic.

I think growing up, he'll want to know
that he did everything he could.

And Rex can help him get there.

You really think you can help Brian?

Because he sure could use a friend right
now.

I'll eat your pencils out for you.

You sit here?

Thank you for doing this.

We know it's hard.

Yeah, even if it works, it's going to take
time.

Of course.

Rex, you stay here with Sarah.

Help Brian.

Just do what you can.

Okay?

Go on.

He's giving him space.

He seems to know what he's doing.

Ransom demand just landed.

I have to go.

Um, keep me updated.

He wants 2 million dollars in unmarked and
untraceable bills.

And the money is not to
be tampered with in any

way or he says that
something terrible will happen.

There will be more instructions coming.

Mom, Dad, I love you.

Delivered via the same anonymous texting
method as last time.

Still not allowed tracing it?

None.

And nothing on Jamie's whereabouts either.

Any success figuring out what's happening
with those accounts at the law firm?

Some.

But it's complicated.

I've actually asked forensic accounting to
assist with this one.

So, the long and short of it
is that there's some serious

cash sitting in an account
that it shouldn't be in.

So, where'd it go?

Well, if Jamie stole it, it's really well
hidden.

Well, maybe he spent it already.

Have you looked into gambling debts,
stock market losses, drug use even?

I didn't see anything like that.

Thing is, is that he's still carrying $100
,000 in student debt.

Keep digging, Jesse.

Come with me.

Yeah, call in some favors to cover the
ransom.

So, what happens next?

Well, the kidnappers will reach out again
with specifics about the delivery.

And once we have those details,
we'll formulate a plan.

What happens if the kidnappers get onto
you?

How do we know they won't hurt Megan?

We'll be ready for anything.

This is Shaffer.

In the meantime, we do have a few
questions.

Of course.

Did Megan mention any problems at work?

Perhaps money-related?

Nothing like that.

Did she mention anything about Jamie's
personal life?

Family, friends, or perhaps she mentioned
a place that Jamie might have taken her?

Jamie's from Saskatchewan.

His whole family's back there.

He moved to St. John's when the firm hired
him.

Yeah, we never heard about any of his
friends.

Excuse me, I have to take this.

Jesse, tell me you found Jamie.

No, but a rental company reported that one
of its fans was overdue to be returned.

Let me guess, it's the same model used by
the kidnappers.

Exactly.

And here's the thing, that fan has a GPS
in it.

What's he doing?

Well, he thinks Brian is ready to draw.

Ken, can you help?

Hey.

Rex is pretty amazing, huh, Brian?

This is his friend, Sarah, and she'd like
to talk to you.

Hey, Brian.

So, um, Rex needs your help finding the
woman who you saw being taken on the street.

Her name is Megan, and she's in danger.

Did you see the man who took her?

You think you can draw him for us?

I know you've been through a lot, and what
happened would upset and disorient anyone.

You know what, Rex?

Rex here could help you, if you want.

Right, Rex?

Jesse,

any progress in getting the overdue Van's
location?

Oh, you know what, I'm
all jammed up waiting for

judicial authorization
on a trace for the GPS.

It's a kidnapping.

Yeah, but they're just, they're covering
their bases, you know.

Oh, wait, okay, here we go.

Wait a minute, authorization just came in,
I got the search loaded, give me a second.

Well, good news, I got a ping,
which means he didn't jam up the GPS.

It's zeroing in on an area of paradise.

That's a big area.

It's triangulating, give it a second.

Waiting for it to resolve.

Okay, it's a parking lot outside of a
commercial laundry on Drover's Road.

He's keeping her in a laundromat.

Well, the Internet tells me things,
I tell you things.

Okay, just text me the address,
how some uniforms meet me there.

You know, Mark, I'm just hoping you didn't
dump the Van there and take her elsewhere.

I think he's finished.

Can I look at your picture, Brian?

No, it is almost like a photograph.

Sarah.

Mark, hi.

Brian just gave us a drawing of the
kidnapper.

The man we're looking for isn't Jamie
Bregden.

I know, I'm looking at Jamie Bregden.

He's dead.

Preliminary results from Jamie's autopsy
indicate cause of death was a single stab

wound to the heart,
so either the killer was

very lucky or... They
knew what they were doing.

Yeah, also there was
nowhere near enough blood

in the Van for it to have
been the murder scene.

Meaning Jamie was killed elsewhere and
transported there.

So what do we think is going on here?

Brian's drawing makes
it clear that it wasn't

Jamie who snatched
Megan off the street.

Right, but he still could have been
involved, right?

I could have had a partner who wanted all
of the ransom money to himself.

You know, once they had
Megan, the partner would

have realized they didn't
need Jamie anymore.

Right, that's my thinking too.

Jesse, did you get in touch with that Van
rental agency?

Yeah, the Van was rented using a fake ID
and a credit card.

The problem was first of the month and all
the clerks were swamped with people

renting vans to move, so... Great, so no
one remembers what this guy looks like.

Well, but we do have Brian's drawing of
the suspect.

Maybe we use that like an artist sketch to
put out an APB.

You know what?

I might be able to do you one better.

I'm beta testing some facial recognition
software.

I've been using Brian's drawing as a test
case.

You're thinking it can work from a
drawing?

It's worth a shot.

I'd have to upload it and get permissions.

It would take some
time, but it's... Oh, Jesse,

the details of the
ransom drop just came in.

I'm sending you a link.

Yeah, okay.

The money is to be placed in a duffel bag.

And don't try marking the ransom.

He'll know.

Dad, take the bag to Forest Road Cemetery
at three o'clock sharp.

Drop it on the bench by the exit,
walk away, and don't look back.

Forest Road Cemetery is wide open.

It's going to be hard to have surveillance
there and not be spotted.

There's no way we let this guy get away.

This might be our own chance to save
Megan.

I have an idea.

The killer said not to
Mark the money, but what

if we did in a way that
only Rex could detect?

Then Rex can follow the money after it's
delivered.

Exactly.

How would you do that?

Synthetics.

The canine unit uses synthetic scents to
train the dogs.

Pseudo-cocaine or explosive powder.

Both are entirely undetectable by humans.

I could spray the money with one of them.

Do it.

Okay.

I've got eyes on Megan's father.

He's crossing to the drop zone.

He made the drop.

And now we wait.

Yeah, maybe not for long.

We've got some action here.

I've got a teenager.

He's approaching the bag.

He's looking.

He's picking up the bag.

He's got it.

He's on the run.

Let's go.

Go, go, go, go, go.

Stop right there.

Easy, easy, easy.

Hey, kid, just, just set down the duffel
bag.

No, no, no.

Don't, don't do anything stupid.

No, don't, don't, don't.

Turn around.

You're under arrest.

You're telling me you have no idea where
Megan is?

I told you, I don't know any Megan.

I'm just supposed to believe you had no
idea what was in that duffel bag.

Well, I didn't know there was money in
there.

It wasn't just money.

It was ransom.

And that makes you an accessory to
kidnapping and murder.

You're going to spend the rest of your
life in prison.

I swear, I'm telling the truth.

Then tell me again, how exactly did you
get involved?

I played this online game, Star Quest.

One day this player named
break jam showed up and in the

chat, they offered me a bunch
of game credits and skins.

If I did something for them, what was the
ask?

To go to the cemetery
and watch for a man

dropping a bag and then
grab it when he's gone.

Then what?

Run to the railing and drop it into a
truck waiting below.

If I was late, I got nothing.

So who is this break jam?

What does he look like?

I don't know.

I keep telling you this.

You have to believe me.

I would tell you in an instant if it would
help get this person back.

I thought it was just a prank or
something.

Please.

I didn't want to hurt anyone.

Do we believe the kid?

I think so.

I mean, it's a smart setup.

Totally anonymous contact when recruiting
them and at the backdrop.

What do we know about this pickup truck?

Well, it turns out it was stolen from the
ghouls about a week ago.

Okay.

Can we use security cameras to track it
down?

I tried, but I lost it leaving downtown.

And what about this break jam?

Is that like a play on Jamie Bregnan?

Indeed.

Indeed, I traced it back to a gaming site
based in Cyprus.

Problem is, is that they used a VPN to
mask the IP.

I will get it, but it'll take some time.

Well, time is what we do not have.

Kidnapper has the money and he's already
killed one person.

Why would he let Megan live?

Yeah, we need to find her now.

Okay, facial recognition software just got
a match for Brian's drawing.

Tell me we got a hit.

Actually, looks like we got 33 across the
country.

Still, that's incredible.

Just from Brian's drawing.

I'm just narrowing it down to search for
people on the island.

Okay.

Okay, that leaves three.

Well, let's focus on the one with the long
criminal record, shall we?

Agreed.

Earl Blackburn, 43 years old, and did some
time for armed robbery and assault.

Ran a high-end chop
shop disassembling stolen

cars, and those are
just the highlights.

Do we know where this guy is?

Yeah, he did parole, so I have home
address.

Why don't you look at that?

Looks like Earl Blackburn is represented
by the law firm that Megan works for.

Stunned.

Earl was a model prisoner.

He did all the programs.

He had a great psych assessment.

I really thought that he would fall.

Well, we need to find him as quickly as
possible.

He's not at his home address.

Do you have any idea where he might be?

No, no idea.

I haven't heard from him since his parole
board meeting.

Did Megan have any interactions with him
when he was represented by the firm?

No, but you know who did.

It's Jamie.

So let's say Jamie is running some
collapsing scam.

He's in desperate need of cash.

Megan has turned on him.

So he cooks up a kidnap scheme.

Makes revenge on Megan and ransom from her
parents.

But Jamie decides he
can't do it alone, turns to Earl

Blackburn, who he met while
working on his parole case.

Right, only Earl turns the tables on
Jamie.

Yeah, but if this is the plan,
then why didn't he give himself an alibi?

What do you got, Sarah?

Uh, more results from Jamie's autopsy.

I can place time of death at 18 hours ago.

Not long after Megan was taken.

No.

What else you got?

Several tiny shards of chromium were found
in the stab wound.

Have a look.

The type you didn't expect to find in
something like an industrial plant.

Or maybe a professional chop shop.

I'll have Jesse run down some locations.

Hello, Mark.

It's me.

I searched every location that Earl
Blackburn worked at in the past,

and most of the buildings they've been sold
or leased out to legitimate businesses.

But there is one that
remains vacant on the

market and has been
for the last six months.

It's at 11 Clyde Avenue and Mount Pearl.

We're on our way.

Have a SWAT unit meet us there.

You got it.

There's no signs of activity or
Blackburn's truck.

Yeah, Laverax and I take it close to one.

Go.

He's in there.

Any sign of Megan?

No, but I can't be sure she's not there.

And he's got a gun.

We need to move inside.

Take him down fast.

Copy.

It's the vehicle Blackburn used to achieve
the ransom.

Nothing.

Where is she?

Where is she?

She better be alive.

This is really necessary.

Brian's been through so much.

I know I need him to officially identify
Earl Blackburn as an eyewitness.

Brian, do you think you can help the
police?

Brian, I need you to look at someone and
tell me if they're the man you drew.

Can you do that?

I want you to try and remember.

Brian, is that the man who you saw taking
the woman in front of your house?

Yeah.

Oh, Brian, thank you.

I want you to know how much we all
appreciate what you've done.

I know it wasn't easy.

We got an eyewitness, Blackburn.

We know you took Meghan.

So where is she?

We've got Jamie's blood on the chop shop
floor.

We've got the truck you picked up the
ransom in.

So give yourself up and give us Meghan.

You know, all this time I thought you were
in this with Jamie.

And this is what bothers me.

If Jamie was your partner, how come he
didn't do anything to cover his tracks?

There's someone else involved,
isn't there?

Someone who needed cash, needed a
scapegoat.

Someone at the firm who'd
have access to the accounts

and has the smell of
blood money all over them.

Okay.

I'll tell you.

Detective, got a very full slate today.

How can I be of assistance?

Well, I wanted to let you know that we've
captured Earl Blackburn.

Well, unfortunately,
we didn't find her, which

is, which is why I
wanted to speak with you.

Yeah, of course.

Come on in.

How can I help?

All along, I've had a notion that there
was something off about this kidnapping.

How so?

Well, from the get-go, everything was
pointed towards Jamie, but he's a lawyer.

He's a smart guy and he had to have known
we'd be onto him.

Well, it's not as if Jamie was a seasoned
criminal, unlike Blackburn.

But then how could Blackburn know that
Megan would leave work early?

Yeah, I don't know unless he was just
waiting, watching for her to go.

Yeah, maybe.

But then there's the money that was stolen
from the escrow accounts.

There is no sign that Jamie ever had it,
which makes me wonder where it went,

or if he even took it.

I'm sorry.

I don't get what you're implying here.

We checked, Todd.

And there is one other person at the firm
who has access to those accounts.

And that is you.

I suspect that if I open this,
I'm gonna find $2 million.

Tell me where she is, Todd.

I have no idea.

And you know that's a lie.

Tell me.

I believe I have the right to remain
silent.

And you have the right
to an attorney, but you

also have the right to
be a decent human being.

Talk to Blackburn.

He's your abductor.

Blackburn's not gonna crack and you know
it.

So far, you've had him
do all your dirty work, but

this time it is you who
is gonna let Megan die.

You really want to do that?

Ask yourself.

She's in an abandoned machine shop in the
Goulds.

Megan, it's okay.

Police officers.

My partner, Rex.

Here you go.

Everything's gonna be okay.

You see, when Megan
went to Todd to talk about the

missing funds, he saw
a way out of his troubles.

And he hired Earl
Blackburn to kidnap her and

framed it up to make
it look like Jamie did it.

And then Todd had Blackburn kill Jamie?

Todd was betting that
the investigation into

those missing funds would
end with Jamie's death.

Then he and Blackburn would split the
ransom.

So they were gonna kill me too.

Jamie told me he had nothing to do with
the missing money.

I know.

If only I had believed him.

Hello.

Come on in.

Hi.

How's Brian doing?

Better.

Oh.

He's out of the shell he went into.

I think a lot of that has to do with Rex.

Rex understood Brian in a way none of us
could.

Yeah, it's good to have her, Rex.

It sure is.

Would it be okay for Brian to visit Rex
sometimes?

Yeah, sure.

I think, uh, I think Rex probably would
love that.

Rex.
