JENNY: Feel sorry for
the trick-or-treaters tonight.

-Wouldn't have stopped me.
-(both laugh)

JENNY:
Let's hope the patients behave.

(snorting, squealing
in distance)

You hear that?

-(Jenny screams)

(laughing) You should've
seen your faces.

(laughs) The hell
kind of mask is that?

CLARA:
My daughter made it for me.

TOM: Maybe we can get her

a spare room in here

-'cause that thing is demented.
-(scoffs)

(laughs)

(groans) Blackout.

Generator will kick in.

(Tom sighs)

TOM: Any time now.

Shouldn't it be on by now?

Let's follow protocol.

Check on all the patients,
windows, and doors.

TOM: Hope these are charged.

CLARA:
I'll check the breaker room.

JENNY: I'll take the A wing.

TOM: I'll go to the B wing.

(patient yells in distance)

(pounding on door)

(walkie beeps)

JENNY: Is B wing secure?

TOM (over walkie):
B wing secure.

C wing?

-NURSE: C wing secure.
-(banging on door)

CLARA: I'm in the breaker room.

That just leaves...

(gasps)

Oh, my God. Code 19.

Heston's out. I repeat,

(garbled over walkie):
Heston... (static)

Go again?

Call the police, now.

-(sighs)
-(static over walkie)

(sighs)

-Let's see what we've got.
-(footsteps approaching)

(screams)

(phone beeps)

(line rings, picks up)

Reenie, what's up?

Hey. I just got to the office.
Oh, dang it.

-Hold on. (sighs)
-You okay?

I'm just having a slow start
to the morning.

Went to a Halloween party
last night

dressed as the Corpse Bride,

and I actually won
the costume contest,

believe it or not, but I had

way too many shots of tequila.

-Sounds, uh, you know...
-What, not your scene?

Anyway, I had a pretty good
time, to be fair, but I am now

-buried at the office today.
-I thought you were gonna get someone to help you out

-while Velma's away?
-I am. I'm working on it.

Actually, I'm interviewing
some people today, in fact. Hey,

did you ever look
at what I sent you

-about the psych ward breakout?
-I did.

Heston Koontz, escaped prisoner,
killed a nurse, right?

Look, I know it's not
your normal thing,

but the parents
are pretty insistent,

and they're offering
a sizable reward, so

I think it's worth the consult.

Yeah, I'm pulling into
Wyndham now.

-You got any other details?
-Yeah.

The facility administrator
sent me over

the case file. Heston Koontz,

29 years old, was convicted of

burning a family alive
in their own home ten years ago.

He plead insanity,
and then was sentenced to life

at MCI Cedar Junction.

Looks like he served ten years
without incident,

so they transferred him

to a low-level psychiatric
detainment facility in Wyndham

for good behavior.

Ten years, good behavior?

People usually show you
who they are way before that.

Well, Heston's parents

are pretty worried
about what he's gonna do

if the police don't find him.

Got it. Okay. I'll poke around,
see what I can find out.

-I'll give you a call back.
-Okay. -(phone beeps)

Mr. and Mrs. Koontz?
Colter Shaw.

(sighs) Thank you for coming.

Yeah. Looks like the police have

thrown quite a bit
of manpower at this.

Well, it's-it's been 12 hours

and there's still
no sign of him.

Well, after a big storm
like the one you just had,

hard to trace a footpath.

My best advice is just
let the police do their thing.

I'm sorry, I was told that,
for a fee,

that you would help
find our son.

I can and I will,

as long as I feel like
I can get a result, but, uh,

before I agree to help you,
I need to know

why is it that
you want me to find him?

Is it because

you realize the police will use
maximum force if they do?

Maybe...

maybe you're fearful
that he might come home?

LAWRENCE: That's not it.

Look, Heston never should've
been transferred out of max.

I-I know how that sounds,

but it's the truth.

Heston had a normal childhood.

He played baseball, good grades,

but then something changed
in high school.

He refused
to come out of his room,

and when he did, he would just
stare and whisper to himself.

That's when
the parasomnia started.

Waking nightmares.

We'd find him outside the house

with his face pushed up
against the glass,

strange wounds on his body.

Self-harm?

We didn't think so at first.

We thought the sleepwalking
was from stress at school.

-The kids would make fun of him. Yeah.
-Yeah.

Has a lot of nervous tics.

But one morning...

...couldn't find Gus.

Our dog.

I thought maybe he was sleeping
in Heston's room.

MOLLY: Heston?

Is Gus in there with you?

(dog whimpering)

Honey?

MOLLY:
And then we heard this sound.

(Heston groaning, growling)

(rattling doorknob)

Heston! Let us in!

-Oh!
-Heston!

Oh, no.

(Heston growls)

No. Heston.

COLTER: I'm sorry.

Did he see a psychiatrist?

He did.

The... the doctor said
that parasomnia

could include acts of violence.

They were trying to assure us
that, you know, most people

with this disorder, that...

they're not violent
in real life,

and it could be managed
with medicine.

-And you didn't believe that.
-MOLLY: No.

So, we searched his room,

and...

we found some of his journals

and drawings.

He was fixated on, um,

this girl in the class
below him, Emily Collins.

The sole survivor of the fire?

-MOLLY: Mm-hmm.
-LAWRENCE: We tried to do the right thing.

We reported the journals
to the police,

but they didn't
take it seriously.

MOLLY: A month later,
Heston killed her whole family

and tried to grab Emily.

If the police had
listened to us,

no one would've gotten hurt.

We cannot make
the same mistake twice.

Did you make sure
the police are aware

that he might still be
obsessed with Emily?

LAWRENCE:
We did. We made sure of that.

MOLLY:
And the lead investigator,

Detective Dundee,
knows that we're hiring you.

We know what
our son's capable of.

Find him.

Please.

Before somebody else gets hurt.

Yeah. Okay.
I'll do everything I can.

Thank you.

♪ ♪

COLTER: Detective Dundee?

That's right.
You must be, uh, Colter Shaw.

Yeah.

Yeah, Heston's parents
filled me in.

So you find people
who can't be found?

Least that's how
the parents sold you.

Something like that, yeah.

Yeah, I can't exactly fault them
for blaming us.

We, uh, fumbled the ball
ten years ago, but

it's a different department now.

So... if you, uh, break protocol

or get in the way
of our manhunt,

I got no problem
pushing you out.

Just so we understand
each other.

Did you learn that at Princeton?

The whole "condescension"

disguised as formality"
thing you're doing?

What, you looked me up?

Did I look you up? No, I did not
look you up. I saw your ring.

-Look, I'm just here to help.
-(sighs) Sorry.

Just... nothing
about this case is good.

-Mm.
-There's a reason that Heston

was in the secure facility.

My opinion, he never should've
been transferred here,

but here we are.

-Cameras get anything?
-No.

Storm took down the power line,
whole place went dark.

This is the last image
we have of Heston.

That's him with an orderly.

COLTER: Hmm.

You know, you'd think
a facility like this,

-the patient rooms would be fail-safe.
-That's right.

These locks operate
on a separate battery.

Weren't affected
by the blackout.

So how the hell
did he get out of here?

That's a good question.

I mean, this whole thing
is weird.

It's a crude homage to
a Dirk Bouts piece called

Fall of the Damned.

Title pretty much says it all.
Where'd he get the materials?

DUNDEE: Patients are allowed
art therapy.

Okay.

-These shoe prints?
-DUNDEE: That's Heston's.

Shoes are standard issue
at this place.

No sign of forced exit.

We think the door malfunctioned,

crime of opportunity.

Yeah, maybe.

Or maybe he was working
with someone.

Well, we looked into it.

All staff were accounted for
at the time of the escape

and the murder.

Heston's Bible.
He collected news clippings.

I was in college when
he burned that family alive.

It changed this town.

COLTER: How did Emily survive?

She wasn't home
at the time of the fire.

Parents were right.
He's still obsessed with Emily.

DUNDEE: Yeah, we saw that.

I got a guy stationed
at her house in Millwood.

If he so much as sniffs
in her direction,

-we'll get him.
-COLTER: That's good.

Can I ask you a question?

This whole thing, this, uh...

this seem planned to you?

Unless he can
control the weather,

the storm did him
a lot of favors.

Maybe he waited for the storm,
used it as cover.

Here's what we know:

he's managed to avoid capture
up until now, right?

Which leads me to believe
he knows what he's doing.

Maybe this power outage
wasn't a coincidence.

And I bet if your guys checked
the downed power line right now,

they're gonna find that
it was intentionally cut.

Back to
the "he had help" theory.

Can you show me where
the nurse was killed?

DUNDEE: Heston
cornered the nurse in here.

So if this was
a crime of opportunity,

why... why come here?

Why not just run?

Maybe he got lost
on the way out?

Wrong place, wrong time
for the nurse.

Or maybe they
wanted to make sure

the cameras weren't restored.

Why would he care? People were
gonna know when he was gone.

If he was working with someone,

tried to protect the identity
of his accomplice.

That feels like a stretch.

Okay. How'd he kill the nurse?

He strangled her with this.

-Where's the keycard?
-No keycard,

just the lanyard.

Figured he swiped
an extra off a desk.

Hmm.

Crime techs have been
all over this place,

but knock yourself out.

Yeah.

This vent's been pried at.

There's your keycard.

(phone camera clicks)

Okay.

Here's my theory:

our guy, our suspect

broke Heston out
with that keycard,

comes here to make sure
the nurses

don't restore the cameras,

the nurse fights back, keycard

goes flying off
during the struggle,

down this vent.

They're digging at this thing,
they're trying to get it out,

they ran out of time
and they took off.

None of the employees

reported a stolen keycard.

If Heston did have
an accomplice,

how'd they find one?

Maybe he got help
from an employee.

-I'll question the staff again.
-All right.

-Will you let me know what you find out?
-Yeah.

Randy, you get an ID
on the keycard?

Okay, so the key cards are
encoded with access permissions,

but not tied
to any specific employee.

So, I cross-referenced the RFIDs

with the employee schedule,
and I found that

this card matched up
with this orderly.

Guy named Bill Prugalidad.

He working last night?

Bill Prugalidad was
not on the schedule.

He have a history
we don't know about?

RANDY:
Let me check. (clicking tongue)

Oh, yeah.
Reckless endangerment charge

that he got expunged
five years ago.

Send me an address.

(birds singing)

(indistinct preaching
over radio)

And the Lord said
He would bring judgment.

But first He revealed
His plan to Abraham.

And Abraham,
a man of great faith,

"stood in the gap
and he pleaded, "Lord,

"if there are 50 righteous
in the city,

will You then destroy it?"

(hinges creak loudly)

And then Abraham said,

"If there are 40 righteous
in this city,

will you destroy it?"

And God again said,
"No, I will spare it."

And Abraham said,
"What about 30,

20, or even ten?"

And God in His mercy said,
"For the sake of ten,

I will not destroy it."

(preaching continues
indistinctly)

REENIE: That's nice. Okay.

And how long
did you do that for?

-We did it for two years.
-Wow.

Wow, good for you.

Oh. Um...

that is my next interview.

Well, that's all the information

that I think
I need from you, so...

- Thank you for the opportunity
- Thank you so much.

Yes, of course.

And, uh, we will be in touch.

-Like your tie.
-Thanks.

-REENIE: Hi.
-Hi.

Um, I'm your 11:00, Melanie Day,

-but you can just call me Mel.
-Okay, Mel.

You are early.

-I-I'm happy to wait if you...
-No, come on in.

Okay.

My mom was military,

so, you know, "on time"
is five minutes early.

I get it. My dad was Air Force.

Ah.

-So you know.
-I do.

-What branch was your mom in?
-Army.

Logistics officer. Yeah.

Good for her.
I'm good, I've got one.

Um, okay, Mel Day...

See you've got a B.A.
in criminal justice.

Internship at the district
attorney's office, okay.

How was that?

It was a...

an education.

Yeah. Definitely

-an education.
-That was, uh, Abe Kimber, right?

Honest Abe. Yes.

Yeah, he's a prick.

You don't have to sugarcoat
things with me, okay?

Well, you know,
he-he taught me to

hold my ground

and, uh,
not take things personally,

but, yeah, enough said.

Good spin.

I did learn from him,
so, you know,

it's-it's bad with the good,
I guess.

Well, you went
to a great school, Mel,

and you had a highly coveted
post-grad internship.

You could work for
any of the big firms.

So... why me?

I've...

followed your career.

I know that you got
a lot of flak

for leaving Lorber & McDean

right before making partner,
but I...

I totally get it.

I'm pretty averse to
the bureaucratic machine, too.

And what you did
with Luterna Corp?

I mean, exposing
all of that corruption,

uncovering Grimes's abuse...

It was... legit heroic.

I... That's...

that's the sort of lawyer
that I want to work for.

Well, she's good
with the praise. Check.

(both laugh)

And, to be honest,
I'm-I'm curious

about the rewardist
that you work with.

Um, Colter Shaw?

I know that the job description
is for your legal work,

but I just think
that's really cool.

-Well, there is definitely some overlap.
-Okay.

Well, I-I can handle
whatever you throw at me.

Okay.

Tell me something about you.

Something that isn't on
this very perfect résumé.

I don't know. I'm into
typical girl stuff, I guess.

Murder podcasts. Um...

romantasy novels...
Fourth Wing, especially.

Oh, my gosh, so good. Um...

Uh, TikTok witches are kind of
my new thing right now.

Okay.

And why are you so averse
to bureaucracy, as you put it?

-You want the truth?
-Oh, I always want the truth.

Okay. Um...

My mom died when I was 16.

-In the line of duty?
-No.

She was found in her car.

Shot. In the-the parking lot
of a rest stop.

But, um...

they never found out who did it.

So there were no answers.

No justice.

I'm so sorry, Mel.

Yeah. Me, too.

Um... But I'm good. I'm sorry.

I don't usually
dump this on people,

-especially people that I want to work for.
-No, no, no.

I asked.

Yeah. I guess I...

It just felt like
the systems that were

supposed to be there
to support her

were more interested in
protecting themselves,

you know?

I do know.

I think...

we are gonna
get along just fine.

Ooh... wait. (giggles)

Does that mean I got the job?

-It does.
-Wow.

Oh, my gosh. Thank you so much.

This is... this is awesome.
You won't regret it, I promise.

-I know I won't.
-(Mel exhales happily)

Take a look at this.

Same logo as the one I found

on the Bible in Heston's room.

Prugalidad ran the Bible study
at the facility.

Maybe Heston manipulated him,
and then killed him.

Heston didn't kill this guy.

This guy's been dead for days.
Someone else killed him.

Took his keycard,
broke Heston out.

Doesn't make sense.

I mean,
Heston's not the sort of guy

who has friends on the outside.

(phone buzzes)

-Randy, talk to me.
-RANDY (over phone): Okay.

I hacked the sensor camera
on the electric vehicle

that you spotted next door.

A blue minivan left Prugalidad's
property two days ago,

triggered the car-cam,

no vehicles
from that direction since.

Got a plate?

Yup, and it was reported stolen.

(breathes deeply)

-Any idea where it is now?
-Let me see.

(clicking tongue)

Okay, just went through
a toll station in East Millwood,

like, half an hour ago.

-Emily lives in Millwood.
-He's after her.

Unit four, this is Dundee.
You have eyes on Emily? Over.

Unit four, respond.

Let's go.

DUNDEE:
This is Dundee requesting backup

to 20606 Mosley Road
in Millwood.

♪ ♪

Emily's not here.

They had to ditch the van.
They knew the vehicle was hot.

Any cars reported stolen
in the area?

-DUNDEE: No, not today.
-Someone picked them up.

That gives us a third person.

I don't get it.
What's in it for them?

-Got an owner?
-Uh...

Woman in her 40s,

runs a daycare,
reported her minivan

stolen from a church
parking lot during service.

What church?

DUNDEE:
Sisters of the Sacred Fire.

It's a local convent.

Take a look at this.

It's the same symbol
that I found

on that Bible in Heston's cell

and Prugalidad's garage.

Let's check it out.

Got to be a connection, right?

You get Heston's
visitation records?

REENIE (over phone): Sure did.

Heston had monthly
visitations with

a spiritual counselor,
a nun named Sister Carlotta.

It looks like
their relationship started

before he was transferred
to Wyndham. Yeah.

About a year ago,
at MCI Cedar Junction.

She live near there?

Nope.

Her only address is at

Sisters of the Sacred Fire
convent.

-That's quite a trip, right?
-Yeah, and it

seems that she got tired
of the commute.

She sent several letters
petitioning for Heston

to be transferred.

So, maybe she developed
feelings for him,

and he took advantage of that.

Manipulated her to help him move
to Wyndham so he could escape.

Yeah, or maybe she was just
trying to help.

-I mean, she's a nun, after all.
-Yeah, well,

think there's more to it
than that.

-All right. I'm headed to Sacred Fire.
-Okay.

(call beeps off)

JARED: Excuse me.

-This is private property.
-DUNDEE: We need to speak

to Sister Carlotta. It's urgent.

MOTHER SUPERIOR:
It's okay, Jared.

I'll take care of this.
You can go back to your work.

Let me know
if you need anything.

MOTHER SUPERIOR:
How may I help you?

I'm the Mother Superior here,
Sister Barbara.

COLTER: We're looking
for an escaped patient

from Wyndham Psychiatric,
Heston Koontz.

Come inside, won't you?

What does this escaped patient

have to do with Sister Carlotta,
may I ask?

She was, uh,
she was counseling him.

We counsel all sorts
through our outreach program.

We believe she may have
facilitated

or had knowledge of his escape.

That's quite the accusation.

We know that she visited him
on several occasions,

and that she petitioned
to have him moved to Wyndham.

And I'm sure that's the extent

to which she's involved
with him.

Were you aware of her
relationship with him at all?

I teach my sisters to help
where help is needed.

I don't peer
over their shoulders.

DUNDEE:
If we could just talk to her,

perhaps we could clear this up.

MOTHER SUPERIOR:
I'm sure you will.

I haven't seen her
this afternoon.

She might be off the grounds.

COLTER: Mm-hmm.

She have a room here
we could see?

What for?

COLTER:
You're protecting your sister,

and I understand that,

but this prisoner

has murdered two people
since he escaped.

He's recently kidnapped
a young lady.

Now, if there's anything
in that room

that might help us find her,

we might be able
to save her life.

(drawers opening)

(sighs)

Mr. Shaw.

Detective,
is this really necessary?

It feels entirely inappropriate

to rifle through
Sister Carlotta's

personal items
without her present.

Hmm.

Wait a minute.

Got something.

It's a journal from her time
working with Heston.

"In my heart,
I am sure of the path.

"God help us for what
we are about to do,

for I am but a servant."

That's definitely
more than outreach.

I don't understand.

DUNDEE: What's that?

COLTER: Let's see what we got.

These are plans for where
Heston was being held.

-MOTHER SUPERIOR: My word.
-She definitely helped him escape.

Why?

Sister Carlotta is a devoted
member of this church.

Yeah, well, things changed.

Maybe, uh,
maybe he convinced her,

maybe threatened her.

I can't believe
she's capable of this.

DUNDEE: She does have a point.

Prugalidad was a big guy,

a-and there's evidence
of a brutal fight.

No way she overpowered him.

COLTER: She's not working alone.

In this photo here,
you recognize those people?

That's the community
outreach group

Sister Carlotta worked with.

That guy.

From outside.

Jared, o-our custodian.

She close with Jared?

MOTHER SUPERIOR:
Yes. He experienced

a great deal of trauma
in the military.

Sister Carlotta
helped him through it,

got him the job here.

He-he lives in the basement

-of the convent.
-He lives in the basement?

-MOTHER SUPERIOR: Yes.
-Can you take us there?

Yes.

Wait right here.

Two people were being held here.

Who'd they take besides Emily?

I don't know.

They were drugged.

Take a look at this.

Same shoe print pattern

we found in Heston's cell, right?

Sure is.

He was being held here.

He didn't escape from Wyndham.
He was abducted.

He's a victim.

(Emily panting)

Sister Carlotta and Jared

were holding Emily and Heston
hostage in here.

They were drugged,
kept unconscious.

Not in line
with the vows she took.

No. Not at all.

(sighs) So, my guess is,

Jared killed the nurse
at the facility

and the cop at Emily's.
The question is why?

We found this.

COLTER: It's an altar.

"Fideles."

Means "faithful" in Latin.

Mean anything to you?

I haven't seen one of these
in a long time.

So it's not part
of your doctrine?

No, it's not.

It's from a splinter sect
that was stamped out long ago.

They called themselves
"Fideles."

What did they believe?

They operated under the guise
of serving God,

hunting down dark things.

COLTER: Dark things?

Witch hunts?

Among other horrors.

Go on.

They believed that people
could be inhabited by demons,

made to do evil.

They took it upon themselves

to hunt down the hosts
to eradicate the bad spirits,

no matter the means.

And how would they
do that, exactly?

What are we talking about,
some sort of exorcism rite?

DUNDEE: I got to call this in.

Can you tell me what you know?

-Jared's gone.
-He knows we're onto him.

I put a BOLO out on his truck.
We just saw him.

He can't have gotten far. Got my
guys setting up roadblocks, too.

How are they justifying
all this murder?

They think they're
doing something righteous.

-Makes them even more dangerous.
-I've heard stories

about the Fideles. I thought
it was just local mythology.

Why are they targeting
Heston specifically?

His parents said that
the violence came on suddenly,

when he was in a sleep state.

Right? That he didn't
sound like himself.

So, maybe Sister Carlotta
thought that those symptoms

pointed to demonic possession.

What's that got to do
with Emily?

Mother Superior said they would
need her for the ritual.

-Why?
-She's the emotional tether.

This sect, they believe that

a demon can only enter a host

if it's unlocked
by an emotional tether.

Unlocked?

Meaning the plan is to kill
both Heston and Emily.

This sect was associated
with the original site

of the Sacred Fire church.

We thought that place
was haunted as kids.

Rumors of all kinds
of unexplained phenomena.

I'd bet that's where
they're doing the ritual.

Get in. I'll drive.

All right. We blocked the road
to the original church.

-No sightings of Jared's truck yet.
-(phone buzzes)

-(phone beeps)
-Randy,

did you locate Jared's phone?

He was headed east, but then
he got wise and removed

the SIM, like, 15 minutes ago.

Wait, you said it was moving
east, not west?

The original church is west.

You know, the last text he got
from Sister Carlotta reads,

"Go to the first fire."

That mean anything to you?

Church is called
Sisters of the Sacred Fire.

First fire has to be
the original church.

Then why would he be moving
away from the church?

Unless...

All right, Randy.

-Thanks.
-All right. I got you, man.

(phone beeps)

(sighs)

REENIE: Hey, Randy.

I want to introduce you
to my new assistant, Mel.

-Hey.
-RANDY: Hi.

-Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.

Please, don't get
too used to me.

This face, okay?
Don't even, don't even do it.

All right? I'm just here
on a temporary basis.

You know.
Freelance tech support.

Mm. Gotcha.

I don't know why you keep
saying that. He's staying.

-I am?
-REENIE: Yes, you are.

Oh, okay. Good to know.

(whispers): Just trying
to keep my options open.

-(chuckles)
-Oh. What is this?

-Oh. Um, this is, uh...
-Oh. Sorry.

She's good, Randy.
She's done quite a bit

of homework on what we do.

Oh, yeah?

REENIE:
Yeah, Colter's running down

a patient from
a psychiatric prison.

-Escaped?
-REENIE: Abducted, actually,

alongside a young woman.

-Oh, my God.
-Yeah.

-Can I ask why?
-REENIE: We're not sure.

Well, Colter's not sure.
But it's not good.

RANDY: Yeah.

Gonna need a lot of sage
for this office after this case.

I'm not even into
all the woo-woo stuff,

it's just... I don't know.

Stuff like this
makes you wonder.

-REENIE: Yeah.
-You know, I recommend palo Santo.

It translates to "holy wood"
in Spanish.

It's really good for warding
off the bad energy, I think.

Yeah, that.
I'll take a truckload of that.

-Yeah?
-Yeah.

Okay. Well, you know, I can run

to the store right now
if you want.

Uh, he's good.

-I am?
-Yeah. Um, I will send you an e-mail

with all the information

-that you're gonna need for your first day.
-Okay.

-Okay?
-Sounds good.

Thank you so much. Uh, it was

-nice to meet you, Randy.
-You, too. -(door opens)

Thank you again
for the opportunity.

-Of course. Bye.
-I'm excited. Bye.

-Good choice. Good choice.
-Right?

-I mean, she checks out.
-Yeah. I mean,

everybody I sent you checks out,

but I figured you two would
especially get along.

Okay. I just needed
to do my process.

Yes, process is fine,
as long as it includes

good digital hygiene.

Well, you can lecture Mel
all about it on her first day.

-I will.
-Just...

-keep me posted on Colter.
-I will.

What is it?

Feel like
we're missing something.

Why would Jared be driving away
from the church?

He could've tossed his phone,
throwing us off?

Eh, your roadblocks
would've caught 'em by now.

Mother Superior said

it's important that the ritual
be personal, right?

We're going to the wrong place.

First fire...

It's the first fire
that Heston set.

Right? The one that killed
the Collins family.

That would be personal
to Emily and Heston, right?

That east of here?

Sure is. We're not far.

I mean, that place has been
vacant since the tragedy.

Pull a U-y.

All units, suspect is headed
to the Collins property

-on Lombard Drive.
-OFFICER: Copy. En route.

(exhales)

Why are you doing this?

Who are you?

EMILY: Stop this.

CARLOTTA: It's okay. Today,

you have the opportunity

to give your life
for a greater purpose.

EMILY: Please!

(crying): Don't do this!

CARLOTTA: Shh...

You'll be free soon.

EMILY:
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

-No, no, no. Don't do this.
-(grunting)

-(Heston groaning) -EMILY: Please!
-(praying indistinctly)

Somebody help me!

-We should wait for backup.
-We don't have time for that.

In my experience,
every second counts.

Okay, let's split up. I'll...

clear the camper.
I'll meet you in the house.

Be safe.

Drop it.

I got you. Come on. (grunts)

-(grunts) You all right?
-I think so.

-Yeah?
-Thank you.

We'll get you out. Hold on.

All right. Come on. Let's go.

(indistinct radio chatter)

How you doing?
Gonna be all right?

Yeah. Imagine
I'll be down for a bit,

but yeah, I'll be okay.

Good. Glad to hear that.

What about her?
You think she'll be all right?

COLTER: Yeah.

Yeah, she's strong.
I think she'll be all right.

All behind her now.

Sister Carlotta got her...

her beliefs mixed up.

Thought she was fighting
a holy war.

Yeah, but it didn't start out
that way. Something touched her,

and it wasn't good.

I don't know.
So much darkness out there.

I'm not saying demons,
but things that are capable

of bringing true evil
into the world.

And Heston...

Yeah.

I don't know what
I'm gonna tell his parents.

They lost him a long time ago.

Doesn't make it easier, though.

DUNDEE: Irony is,

Heston breaking out
of his restraints ended up

saving Emily's life.

-Poetic justice.
-The universe

slipped up and accidentally
did something fair.

Yeah.

The longer I'm on this job,
the more rare that seems.

You do a lot of good
for this town, you know that?

They're very lucky to have you.

I'll see you around, Colter.

Not if I see you first.

(soft chuckle)

LAWRENCE: Mr. Shaw?

Here.

I collect only in success.

I wasn't able
to bring your son back.

Why don't you, um...

Why don't you give that money
to Emily?

She can do
something good with it.

Okay.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.
