You guys made mistakes, I've fixed 'em. Let's not make a big deal out of this.

What mistakes did you see?

I have a compulsion to put things right.

If I see a mistake, I need to correct it.

Ta-da.

I have an IQ of 160.

The technical term is high potential intellectual.

Means you have advanced cognitive abilities.

Come do this full-time. We need you.

- You know this woman? - I'm his partner.

We're not partners. She's actually just a consultant.

When you and I split up,

we agreed we're gonna remain a family no matter what.

Ludo thinks of you as his daughter.

- It's not the same. - Your father loved you.

That's why he left.

I need you to find someone. Roman Sinquerra.

- He vanished 15 years ago. - You got a deal.

- You made this for your dad? - If you find him.

It turns out Roman was working as an FBI informant.

- "Two hours to make your move." - Sounds like some kind of game.

The kidnapper wants us to play by their rules.

They're watching us.

Oz isn't answering his phone.

I got him.

This kidnapper is really toying with me.

He's making a run for it.

- I'll take this for you. - Thank you.

Ava and I are too old for this game.

And Chloe's gonna need a couple more years.

Morgan, I know where he is. Roman. He's alive.

Hey, how's it going over there?

Pretty good. Just read him his third bedtime story.

What? Only three bedtime stories? You got off easy.

Thank you so much for babysitting. I really needed tonight.

Of course. Are you on your way home?

- Yeah. Yeah, I'm on my way. - Okay. Be careful.

Will do.

- Love you guys. Bye. - Love you.

"Let's play." We have 34 minutes to make our move.

- "The fun has just begun." - They made me play games.

- They were wearing a white anime mask. - And they're watching us.

Whoever is playing games with us, it isn't David Roy Peck.

Well, then who the hell is this guy?

Mom, help! Help me!

What? What is it?

No one can help you.

What are you doing? Are you serious?

- He's… He's cheating. - My pillows, my rules.

Stop, okay?

First of all, it's a pillow fight.

There's no way to cheat. Second of all, they are not your pillows.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

- She lulled me into a sense of security. - You have two, that's not fair!

Hello! I am trying to read my baby sister to sleep.

- Oh, okay, we'll do it quietly. Shh. - Ow!

You know, maybe if we weren't stuck in this house for like a week,

we wouldn't be acting like animals.

- Wild animals. I can't. - Snake attack!

Your boss is here.

Oh!

Perfect timing. You're sleepy now, right?

- Go to bed. - Okay.

- Do you mind? - I got him.

- Thank you. - I got him, I got him.

So… how we holding up?

Not great. Pretty terrible, actually.

I don't know what's worse,

being stalked by a deranged psychopath or having to lie to my kids about it.

There's no need to scare them. We're gonna catch this guy soon.

Everything will be back to normal.

I hope so.

It's only a matter of time before they realize

Ludo's not crashing on the couch because of a palm weevil infestation.

They're native to his neighborhood. I figured Elliot would check. He did.

Do you have anything else for me besides this homework?

I wish I had more of an update on Roman.

We're pretty confident Gio's contact had good intel.

He's staying somewhere in Henderson, Nevada.

We got the force out there helping us get closer.

Do you have an address?

Not yet, but we'll get one.

We'll figure it out.

How's he doing?

Karadec?

He's ready to have you back.

We all are.

- Whoa, whoa! Daph, where you going? - I got plans.

Really? At this hour?

Settle yourselves.

It's just a friend. And you guys need to get out of here too.

We can't be pulling back-to-back all-nighters.

Yeah, you know what, Oz? She's right. Go home.

Why? It's not like I'm gonna sleep anyway.

Not until we catch the bastard.

Well, I appreciate the sentiment,

but burning yourself out is not gonna help the cause.

Yeah, what about you?

I'll be right behind you.

- You're a terrible liar. - Yeah, that wasn't great.

- Later, guys. - See you.

Okay.

Hey, why you calling me so late?

There's my grumpy guy.

Nice to hear your voice too.

- Why you working so late? - How do you know I'm working?

Well, you answered your phone at 2:00 a.m. and you don't have a social life.

Yeah, you know, this guy went after one of our own.

He got close to you. He got close to your kids.

So it's been impossible for any of us to slow down.

I really thought we would've found him by now,

especially with his sketch all over the news.

Yeah. So did I. You know, it's very detailed.

Yes, it's very detailed.

I worked hard on that with two different artists.

No, the nose is too aquiline. The zygomatics are just bananas.

What are you doing?

Oh, I thought I said a slight cleft and just a little dimple,

but apparently, I said John Travolta, and I don't remember it.

Clear the whole thing.

God, I just gotta learn how to draw.

I don't like this feeling, Karadec.

It sucks. I hate it.

Yeah. I do too.

Yeah.

Get yourself some sleep.

You too.

- Morning, Chester. - Hey. What you got there?

Well, nothing says, "Thanks for looking after my family,"

like an open box of shortbread cookies.

I would've brought you what I made Chloe for breakfast, but it was disgusting.

Yeah, Lieutenant Soto didn't mention this assignment would have perks,

so thank you.

- It's a quiet night? - Yeah, yeah, all good.

Hey, you all dressed up, where you going?

Just gotta go run some errands.

- I'll see you later. - All right.

Nobody came by?

No, just the usual. Babies, dogs, you know.

Why?

Wrong address.

Everything all right, Morgan?

Yeah, I'm just gonna go around the corner for a sec.

- You want me to call for a police escort? - That's okay. No, I'll be quick.

Keep an eye on the house.

Why is no one picking up their phones? I've been texting like a maniac.

You guys, it's the Game Maker.

He sent me this piece of mail so that I would walk by a very specific house.

I know it was him.

Do you have any idea how rare it is for the US Postal Service

to deliver mail to the wrong address?

Between optical character recognition,

bar code scans and the ZIP+4 code system.

It's super rare. And he knows that I know that.

And he also knows that the street next to mine is a cul-de-sac.

So he knew I would have to walk past that house to get to this address.

I know it was him.

Good morning, Morgan. Welcome back.

- I blasted in? - Little bit.

It's too much.

Sorry.

Good morning, Daphne.

Oz, it's really nice to see you back at work.

You too.

- You doing okay? - Yeah.

Me neither.

And yes, Morgan, we did get all of your texts.

And two voice notes.

Which were kinda hard to hear 'cause it sounded like you were running?

Yeah, what? Am I gonna tiptoe or mosey?

Of course I'm running. It's important. Have that dusted for prints, please.

What else is in this bag?

Probably teething crackers or something.

I-I don't know. Don't make a big deal out of it.

Also, that bag looks like it can be used many more times.

Give it back to me when they're done.

Okay, so do we really think that this could be the Game Maker?

- Yes. - Not sure.

- I am sure. - Are you?

Because last week, there were other cases where you were pretty confident...

I understand, okay?

I jumped the gun a couple of times, but, you guys, think about it.

The song "The Lion Sleeps Tonight," paired with the Jungle Animal Match game

that he slipped into my grocery bag next to my children. It is him.

- What do we have so far? - We're still gathering information,

starting with the person who lives at that address.

Just one name on the lease. Maya Price. We left word for her this morning.

Hopefully, we'll hear back soon and she's okay.

Maya Price is my sister. We can't find her.

1522 Wells Avenue?

Where's Mommy?

I was babysitting Max last night.

And I went to Maya's place this morning when she didn't show to pick him up.

Her front door was open. I just knew something was wrong.

But how did you guys find out that she was missing?

Our consultant, Morgan, happened to be walking by.

I live one street over.

- Really? - Yeah.

It's a weird coincidence.

Sarah, take us through everything from last night.

Okay, Maya got some free tickets to see a show at Sound Nightclub.

Any idea who she was with?

A friend from work, I… I think.

You know, she sent me a… a photo.

- Where do they work? - AGM, Artful Gal Music.

She also works part time at Costco to make ends meet.

Sarah, any chance that Maya may have had too much to drink,

ended up crashing at someone else's place last night?

No, she's… Doesn't drink. She's the most responsible person I know.

Sorry, I'm so scared that something happened to her and I'm…

- Play Flappy Bird, but… - Let's see.

Yeah, I'm trying to hold it together for Max.

What's the situation with Max's father?

Derek, he's-he's…

He's a good guy. He just has bad habits.

He struggled to hold down a job. It got kind of messy.

Messy? How?

Custody issues.

Yeah, they have a court date set next week.

Sarah, do you recognize this man?

He's connected to another case that we're working, and we think...

And, um, that's all we have right now.

No.

I-I'd remember if I'd seen him before. I don't forget faces.

Sarah, as soon as we have some answers, we'll be in touch.

That's it.

Reminds me of my club days.

Add that to the list of things Maya and I have in common.

Now, if the doorman at the club said

he saw Maya leave alone around 9:30 p.m. last night,

then the question becomes where did she go?

This parking lot. She hadn't been out in forever.

She's not gonna drive around looking for a meter.

Plus proximity, you know.

Believe it or not, we don't love using a pepper spray.

Fair enough. Well, Maya drove a silver Honda Accord.

If it's not here, I'll have Daphne put out a BOLO on the car.

I don't know, Morgan, this is just way too exposed.

It's unlikely she was abducted here.

- There had to be a second location. - Nope.

This is the spot.

Those busted street lights provided the perfect darkness for him to hide in.

And you see this?

This is a little heel cap from her shoe.

A shoe, not necessarily Maya's.

I'm just gonna keep going.

This is where he attacked her.

She fought back.

She got away by using her purse as a weapon.

That lip balm, candy…

And these little glass fragments…

…that smell like orange blossom

must have been from a perfume sample from a department store.

I'm familiar.

Then she ran. It was a Friday night.

There had to be a guard in that booth over there.

She needed help.

But she didn't get it.

So then her heels must've left these marks,

presumably as he was dragging her to his vehicle.

Yeah, or hers.

Which means she would've been parked in the spot right here.

Karadec, look.

There's two lines of heel marks, and then it just turns into one.

So at a certain point, only one heel was dragging leaving a mark.

That means she lost her shoe during the struggle.

Found it.

He crammed her unconscious body into the trunk of her own car.

He was in control the whole time.

And she knew it.

I put the BOLO out on Maya's car.

Good. Now alert the press.

Let them know we'll have a briefing later today

- and get a photo of Maya ready to go. - Done and done.

And maybe show 'em a picture of this guy again.

Not until we know we can tie the Game Maker to her abduction.

Right now, we focus on finding Maya.

I'm very focused on finding Maya,

which is why I want to focus on the man who abducted her.

I think she's right. There are too many coincidences.

- Prints are in on Morgan's mail. - And?

Yours and the postman's.

Looks like Maya pulled a permit for a weapon a few months back.

- Protection from her husband? - Let's find out.

I want Derek in here for questioning stat, and we're cleared to search Maya's place.

Let's get over there. Clock is tickin'.

Hmm. You know, this record doesn't fit the rest of her collection.

We'll take it with us, check it for prints.

Locks are new, probably installed in the last month or so.

Okay, so it certainly appears like Maya purchased a gun.

There was a record of sale from two weeks ago,

but I can't find a weapon anywhere.

All right, Daph. We'll keep looking, all right?

Okay.

- Karadec? - Yeah?

Look at this. Prada, Gucci, Versace.

That's thousands of dollars of stuff Maya can't afford.

Gifts from someone.

- Yeah, but they're all missing. - Well, maybe they were stolen.

Karadec. Karadec!

Yes, Morgan?

I'm pretty sure those expensive items weren't stolen.

They were sold. Let's go.

- Go where? - The Boneyard.

The Boneyard? Yes, of course. Why wouldn't we be going to the Boneyard?

You guys check out Maya's work, Artful Gal Music.

Call me with anything.

Fritzy.

Good to see you.

Hey, it is too late to buy back your mixer, Morgan. It's long gone.

No, I don't want the mixer.

I also have a job now that allows me to keep my appliances.

We're here on official police business, Fritzy.

- You're a cop? - No, but they do sign my paychecks.

This woman is missing.

And I know she recently got rid of some pretty pricey designer stuff.

So…

So I'd like them, please.

She could've sold that stuff anywhere.

Yeah, but she also picked up an electronic piano for her kid.

What? I have a monopoly on electronic kiddy pianos?

Fritzy.

There was a sticky spot on the side of it in the shape of a dog bone.

You sell people's stuff and then you take off the price tag,

but you never remove the goo.

- Pain in the ass to get off. - I know.

Okay, fine. All right. I did a good deal by that lady.

But I can't be handing over thousands of dollars of goods to you.

It's hard enough to keep the lights on as it is these days.

- Uh, the LAPD will put it on their tab. - There is no tab, Morgan.

The LAPD will reimburse you from the city slush fund.

Not a thing.

Fritzy, why don't you just turn over the items?

Otherwise, I'm gonna have to fast track a warrant for a more invasive search,

and who knows what kind of illicit goods we'll find in here.

What are you doing? It's too much.

You trying to feel big? He's trying to feel big.

This guy's trying to keep his lights on. Fritzy, I am so sorry.

I'll tell you what, you let me borrow the stuff

and I promise to give it back to you as soon as we're done with it.

- Fine. - Yeah?

All right. Well, thank you, sir.

And if what you're saying about that lady is true,

you might want to talk to the fella

she was arguing with out in my parking lot.

Did you get a look at him?

No, but my cameras did.

Derek, the reason why we brought you in here today is

because Maya's been missing since last night.

She was abducted from a car lot in Hollywood.

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

I had no idea.

- I… What about Max? Is Max okay? Is he... - Max is fine. He's with Sarah,

and you would have known sooner, but we couldn't find you.

Well, I was having a few drinks at a bar in NoHo.

Okay, I had more than a few drinks. I was upset.

I haven't seen my kid much lately.

Looks like things got pretty heated between you two outside the Boneyard.

Look, she… She'd been dodging my calls.

I-I admit it was a mistake to follow her, yeah.

She'd been getting expensive gifts from someone.

And I-I got jealous. I admit that. Okay?

Look, I would never… I would never hurt her.

Did you know that Maya recently purchased a firearm, Derek?

I mean, why… might she do that?

What? No, no.

Maya hates guns.

He didn't do it. We're wasting time.

Maybe he did. Maybe he didn't.

Maybe he knows something we don't.

Derek, what happened to your hand?

Honestly, I don't know. I can't remember.

I made it back to my buddy's place, and then I passed out.

Maya is my whole world.

Love of my life.

And I miss my son.

I-I-I've made mistakes, yes, but I…

I would never.

You have to find her.

Uh, we're digging into Derek's alibi.

- Okay. - Oz and Daphne came back with someone

- I think you're gonna wanna talk to. - Barry Gibb?

The woman that Maya was with at the club.

We had a blast.

It was obvious she needed a night to herself.

The custody battle was stressing her out,

and she was freaking out over how expensive lawyers can be.

Your boss, uh, Jason Howard, correct? We'd like to talk to him,

but he's been hard to locate.

That doesn't surprise me.

He nepo'd his way into the CEO position years ago,

and he has the work ethic to prove it.

He's more likely to be on a scouting trip to Italy

or at one of his vacation homes than to be at the office.

Hmm, gross.

Uh, was Maya seeing anyone?

Maybe somebody who could afford designer stuff?

She told me about the gifts.

I have my suspicions on who sent them, but she wouldn't confirm it.

You think Jason was sending her those gifts?

I'm pretty sure the only reason he comes to AGM at all is to see her.

He gave us those tickets to the club.

Told Maya she deserved to let go for a night.

I mean, do you think maybe…

No. Hell no. Maya would never.

She felt weird about taking the tickets in the first place,

but it was Gaga night and peer pressure…

Am I a bad friend?

You're here, aren't you?

You know, you kind of look like her.

Hey, Daphne. What else we got on Jason?

Half a dozen sexual harassment complaints

over the last five years.

Looks like they all settled out of court.

Sounds like he's paying people to be quiet.

No, not people. Women.

- Morgan, where are you going? - To get some air.

Oz, call your favorite judge.

We need a search warrant for any and all residences linked to Jason Howard.

I know you guys aren't a 100% sold on my Game Maker theory yet,

but hopefully, this should clear things up.

I'm guessing this is what the inside of your mind looks like.

Oh, buddy. Not even close. Okay, you ready?

Jason Howard is a diabetic, just like Spencer.

As a matter of fact, he is on the board

of a research initiative at County General,

meaning he would know exactly

how long a person could be without insulin.

He's also a painter.

These are his original works.

Kind of reminds you of the ones that we found hanging in the gallery.

Guys, turns out a trust fund and a work aversion gives you

a lot of free time for hobbies

because he's also a certified scuba instructor.

I mean, half the guy's Instagram pictures are of him in exotic locations,

you know, teaching impressionable young women in wet suits

all about the secrets of the abyss.

You ready for the big finish? I have to admit this is pretty fun.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm!

So?

Jason and the Game Maker are one and the same.

No! No, it's a trap.

Guys, I just went into the war room.

It took me like five minutes to get all this stuff off the Internet.

He's trying to get us to focus over here

so we can keep slithering around over there. It's just too easy.

This is what I think. The Game Maker is trying to frame Jason

to be a part of whatever game this is he's currently playing.

Or, it's Jason. It's always been Jason.

And your guy is just a Good Samaritan who helped save the frozen turkey.

Okay, then how did that card game get into my groceries?

Whoever's doing this has pulled off more complicated tricks than that.

Look, we're just saying, isn't it possible?

Sometimes, the easiest answer is the right one.

I don't care if it's possible. This is what's happening.

- We still have to follow protocol. - I want to be on your side here, Morgan.

But why would he go to so much trouble to frame this particular guy?

Gosh, Oz, I'm not sure. Let's find him and ask him.

All right, enough.

For now, we keep all investigative paths wide open

until the facts tell us otherwise.

Go be with your kids. Keep your phone close.

The stress is getting to her. She's not a cop.

- She certainly didn't sign up for this. - Selena, stop.

Adam, she said no.

Said no to what?

The job. When I offered it to her, I pushed her into it.

I promised to help her with the Roman case if she came on as a consultant.

- Why are you telling me this now? - Because I put her in this position!

No, you gave her an opportunity.

You did the right thing by bringing her on. We need her.

If she goes rogue and something happens,

maybe I just take her off the case.

You trust me?

- You know I do. - Okay. Well, I trust her.

Would you like me to take over?

Now that all the work is done, that's when I really shine.

It's okay. I'm good.

Are you?

It's Roman.

I think they're getting pretty close to finding him.

What happens if they find him?

What happens if they don't find him?

I just really want this for Ava.

I'll eat later if that's cool.

Wait, where are you going?

- Keisha's having a few people over. - Oh.

It's dinner time. You know, I'm still a growing boy.

Okay, it'll be ready soon.

It's not a really great day for that

'cause we're having family night tonight.

Again? We've been doing this for like a week now.

Mom, I'm not stupid. I know something's going on.

I'll set the table.

Where are the cookies?

Uh, the cookies?

It doesn't matter

because we eat our growing food before we even think about cookies.

The Ayurvedic system believes that a small portion of dessert

sets up the digestive system for…

- I'll wait. - Yeah, you'll wait.

Hey.

Of course you're not stupid.

And yes, we need to talk,

but can we do it when we have a little bit more privacy, please?

- Yeah. - Thank you.

- Hi, Morgan. - Hey.

Did you get my text?

No?

We're going to a party?

You've got to be kidding me!

Eh…

The hell kind of party is this?

Jason's hosting an album release for one of his artists.

He said he couldn't get out of it, but he's happy to talk to us here.

Let's just take the weird win.

Weird like these masks look kind of like the Game Maker's?

- Duly noted. - Is there a mask that speaks to you

or would you like me to match one to your aura?

I tell you what, this one right here is yapping at me,

but I think you should match his aura.

- No, that would not be necessary. - If I'm being honest, yeah. Go nuts.

- Uh-huh. - Really get in there, yep.

Yeah, bingo. Nailed it.

- Thank you. - Bye.

Morgan, I need you to focus. We still have to find Jason.

I am focused, and I already found him.

He's right over there in front of that wall of 19-year-olds.

Detectives, thanks for showing up.

Uh, can I get you anything?

Yeah, a quieter place to talk.

Maya's worked for me almost a year.

She schedules all my stuff, my social and philanthropic…

Stuff!

Is that why you bought her so many gifts, Jason?

Gifts?

- Tickets to Sound Nightclub. - Oh, those are comps.

I'm just generous.

Yeah, a lot of stores on Rodeo Drive that would agree,

not to mention your platinum card.

I-I was worried you'd find out about that.

- Now why would you say that? - Because I didn't buy those things.

Maya did.

She has access to my credit card for work stuff,

and my people noticed a transaction on my statement last week,

and I confronted her.

So you didn't fire her even though she stole thousands of dollars from you?

Well, she denied it, and I… have a soft spot for single moms.

Besides, it's just money.

Yeah. Totally. Just money.

Ooh, those are beautiful.

- What are those, Tantõ daggers? - Yeah.

Yeah, I bought those in Sakai City. They belonged to a samurai.

Are you a collector?

Me? No. No.

Those are a teeny bit outside my price range,

but, uh, I love how you've displayed them.

Yeah, they're arranged by shogunate periods.

They sure are.

Let's see. Minamoto, Taira, Tõdõ, Ashikaga, Oda, Tokugawa.

Except one's missing. The Takeda. It's not there.

You don't strike me as a guy who would display an incomplete set.

Jason, I'm gonna need you to think real hard on this one.

Where were you last night around 9:30?

I was here. I had my chef make me a meal.

I caught up on paperwork, and then I went to bed early.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to get back to my party.

Taffy Boi needs me.

I hope you find Maya. I really do.

You guys can see yourselves out, right?

- Yeah. - Okay.

Well, he's lying. That man doesn't work during the day, let alone at night.

You're waiting on me to leave so you can poke around Jason's den without a warrant?

Yeah.

You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used…

Excuse me. Hey.

- I saw him. I know it. - Who?

Him. I know I saw him. He was just here.

I want your badge number and your phone number.

Where's Maya?

You guys are good?

Uh, yeah. We're doing okay.

I think it was the right thing to do, telling the kids what's happening.

- Are they scared? - Yes, but mostly for you.

I told them their mom's got the entire police department looking out for her.

You're a good dad. Thank you.

- I'll be home as soon as I can. - Be safe.

Jason is not saying another word.

Which means we're no closer to finding Maya.

Maybe Jason isn't telling us where Maya is 'cause Jason doesn't know where Maya is.

Well, he knew where she was the night she was taken.

- The gifts were bought on his card. - Her bracelet's in his pool.

The missing dagger from his wall.

Yeah, I'm not saying the evidence doesn't point to Jason.

I'm the one who said it would. Remember? We just gotta figure out why.

How dark was it at the party?

One face, all those people.

What are you implying? Are you implying I didn't see him?

No, we know you saw him.

It would really help if one of us could see him too at some point.

Yeah, it sure would help.

I would love that, but only I saw him at the party.

Just me.

That's how he wanted it. It was clearly by design.

So, what is the game, Morgan?

I don't know what the game is.

Maybe the game is figuring out what the game is.

And, yes, I hear how crazy that sounds, but

what else can we expect from this guy?

Are you…

Are you really suggesting that I don't remember his face?

That man is a danger to my children.

Okay?

I'm never gonna be able to forget his face.

Long after we're done with this,

long after we get him, and we put him away,

and you guys move on to another case, he's gonna live up here,

cemented inside of my brain, along with all of the other things

I gotta look out for to make sure my kids are okay.

So if we could just, you know, close the book

on this whole Morgan-made-up-an-imaginary-man thing,

that would be great.

Okay, I've got something.

A salvage yard in Sun Valley just reported Maya's car.

Go check it out.

And you call me as soon as you land on the scene.

Lieutenant Soto.

Officer Sigman, how are things in Nevada?

That's right. That's right. Roman Sinquerra.

What do you got?

The car showed up last night. I saw your BOLO when I ran the VIN.

- Did you see who brought it in? - No, sorry.

This is it.

It's all yours.

- Hey. Are you okay? - I-I don't know. What do you think?

If we pull Jason's prints off the dagger

and get him to talk, maybe we can get to Maya.

Just because she's wounded doesn't mean she isn't still alive.

Morgan.

You heard?

I did.

I also heard from our friends in Nevada. They called with an address.

- Roman? - I think so.

I came after they called. I figured you'd wanna hop in a car.

- I can drive. It's just a few hours away. - No.

No, I'm not. I can't leave my kids here with that guy still out there.

- Daph and I can go, if you want. - Yeah.

- Whatever you need, Morgan. - What… What is… going on?

After everything we went through last week, I filled them in too.

Okay. Yeah, thank you.

I'll call you as soon as we have eyes on him.

Who called him?

Roman?

No, Derek, Maya's ex, the dad.

He was at the police station when we got there with Jason.

Did somebody call him and give him a heads-up that we had made an arrest?

No, Major Crimes doesn't notify victims' families

about active investigations.

But he knew we were gonna be there.

He was waiting for us when we came in with Jason. Do you remember?

If we didn't tell Derek that Jason might've killed Maya, who did?

- Hello. - Derek, this is the LAPD.

It's about Maya. I wish we had better news.

- It was him. - You think the Game Maker called Derek.

He must've wanted Derek to see Jason getting arrested.

- Why? - That's what we gotta find out.

First, I thought he sent this to me to get my attention, to lead me to Maya's house,

but what if I'm not the only person who got this flyer in the mail?

It'd be pretty easy to steal Jason's credit card if he had a key.

♪ Oh, the games people play now ♪

♪ Every night and every day now ♪

He's the one who sent Maya all those gifts and made it look like Jason did it.

He stole her bracelet when he abducted her,

dropped it in the pool.

And then he grabbed the weapon on the way out.

♪ In their ivory towers ♪

Okay, but why do all this? Just to frame Jason?

No, I think leading us

in the wrong direction was only part of the game.

So what's the rest? What's his next move?

Well, look at all these gifts.

All the red ones are either Versace or Gucci.

What do those two men have in common?

- They were murdered. - They were both shot and killed.

Where's Derek?

- You think Derek is his next victim? - Not exactly.

Keep going. I'm listening.

The weapon that Maya supposedly registered for.

- We never found it. - I don't think she bought a gun at all.

I think he wanted Derek to think that she did.

Did you know that Maya recently purchased a firearm?

What?

The Game Maker knew Derek would want revenge,

and so he placed a gun in Maya's house after we searched it.

It's possible Maya was just bait, and she could still be alive.

Yeah, it's possible.

We're still waiting on DNA and a blood type from Maya's trunk.

Yeah, I hope so.

But if she's not part of the game anymore, he doesn't need her.

Look, if we did everything we were supposed to do.

We played the game. We played the game his way.

None of the other victims have died. Maybe he's not a murderer.

Not if he got someone else to do it for him.

So it's Jason he wants dead.

We gotta find Derek.

The Game Maker created a murderer.

And we put the weapon right in his hand.

Derek! Stop!

Excuse me.

Apparently, you're looking for me.
