[BREATHING HEAVILY]

[GASPING]

[GRUNTING]

[GASPING]

No! No!

Please stop! Please!

[YELPING]

[SCREAMS]

[SOBBING]

CAL: Emily! Emily!

No! No! No!

Emily! Hey! Hey!

[SHUSHING]
[GASPING]

I'm right here.

It's okay.
Breathe. Breathe.

[SOBBING]

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

[CONTINUES SHUSHING]

[CRYING]

He had Flynn.

He had Flynn.
He had Flynn
all this time.

Who had Flynn?

Oduwale had Flynn.

Come on, Em,
can you walk?

Okay.

Can you stand up?

Okay.
Yeah.

Hey.
I got it.

[SNIFFLES]

I got it.

Come on.

[CELL PHONE VIBRATING]

Hey.
Nick, we're looking
into Oduwale.

I need your help.
I need you to keep
him away from Flynn.

What's going on?
EMILY: I don't know.

I'll call you as soon as
we find out more.

Okay.
EMILY: Just promise me

you'll keep Flynn
away from him.

Of course. I promise.

Thanks.

Yeah.

[THUNDER RUMBLING]

[ENGINE STARTS]

Hey. [SIGHS]
Um, Emily called.

She's looking into
Dr. Oduwale.

Are you serious?
What for?

I don't know.

She's investigating him.

I know you and Dr. Oduwale
are colleagues,

but I agreed
to keep Flynn away
from him for now.

I hope that's okay.

I mean,
it's probably nothing.

I'm sure it's nothing,
but if it puts
your mind at ease...

Thank you.

I know I don't
say it enough,

but I really appreciate
the way that you handle
our family dynamic...

I love you,
and I love Flynn.

It's that simple.

[CHUCKLES]

I love you.

Dr. Oduwale.

Emily.

[STAMMERS]
This is a surprise.

I don't have a session
with Flynn for a few days.

Is something wrong?

No. No.

Nothing like that. Um...
[SIGHS]

I need to ask you
a few questions.
[SNIFFLES]

[DOOR CLOSES]

Which I would love
to answer, but, um,
I have some appointments.

It's not gonna
take very long.

Did you ever
work on something
called Project Quill?

[SIGHS] Uh...

Project Quill.

[CHUCKLES]

That's a...
That's a name I haven't
heard in years.

And?

Did you work there?

No. Well, not in
any official capacity.

So what capacity
did you work on it?

Building 60 was
a psychobiology hub.

The idea was that, uh,

students and faculty
would talk over
ping-pong tables.

That's all it was?

Just talk?

Mostly.

I'm sure there were
those looking to apply
their theories,

but it never amounted
to very much.

EMILY: Did you
ever work on any of
the experiments there?

I might have taken part
in some of the discussions,

but I can't recall
any specific conversations.

It was 30 years ago.

I'd just finished my thesis.

It's all a blur.

Would you like some water?

No.

No.

Emily, have you considered
taking some private sessions

just for yourself?

It wouldn't have
to be with me.

There are other
specialists working here.

No, thank you. I've [SIGHS]
tried the whole therapy thing.

It didn't take.

Well, I'm sorry.

And I'm sorry to have to

cut short this trip
down memory lane,

but I have to go.

[SNIFFLES]

That's a very
interesting piece.
Who's the artist?

One of my patients.

Let me know if you
change your mind about
the private sessions.

Felicia can always book you
in for an appointment.

Felicia.
Doctor.

Hi, Felicia.
Ms. Byrne.

Could I get Dr. Oduwale's
schedule for the next week?

I need to set up
a few appointments.FELICIA: Hmm. Okay.

Maybe I could
come back later today.Uh, no, he's not here.

He's at Fort Devens
all day every Wednesday.

Fort Devens?

FELICIA: Yeah, he has
a private practice there also.

For the soldiers?

Uh, yeah, he does
trauma group, uh,
private sessions.

For over 10 years now.

Thanks.

Fort Devens was the base
Rex Wolfe was stationed at
before his deployment.

They could've crossed
paths back then.

And Oduwale could have
pulled him into
his experiments

when he needed
somebody with Rex's
special skills.

Mmm-hmm.

The thing is,
is that Oduwale is
not listed on record

as Rex's doctor in any
of his military files.

Yeah, they wouldn't be.

They keep the medical
records separate from
the service records.

[BEEPING]

[OBJECT THUDS]

Hey.

Hey.

You good?

Yeah. You?

I am now.

Listen, uh, I was thinking,
it's been a while

since I've been
in a relationship,

or one that's not
self-destructive.
And, um...

I saw this, and I
couldn't help myself.

Oh, Jack.

Open it.

It's your birthstone.

Do you like it?

Yeah, it's beautiful.

But I...
I can't keep it.

Oh, yeah, yeah,
I know. Uh...

I was thinking maybe
you could say you
bought it for yourself.

I suppose.

What's going on?

Nick knows.

Not about you
but he knows.

Uh...

Okay. Um...

Okay.

What do you want to do?

I can't keep lying.

You want to stop.

I'm sorry.

But...

I have a lot more
to lose than you do.
My marriage, my family.

Yeah. Thanks for pointing
that out, Alice. I actually
have a sister and a father

who would be pissed
as hell...

Hi.
Hi.

Look, can we maybe please
just get together later

and talk about this, please?

I think we covered
everything.

Hey.

Dr. Oduwale
treated Rex Wolfe at
the VA long enough

for a significant
doctor-patient relationship
to develop.

But don't let me
interrupt you.

Sorry, Oduwale wrote
a number of papers
when he was at Saugus,

and they're all online.

And you plan on wading
through them how?

By ignoring me.

[WHISPERS] What?
Okay, tell me.

Citations.

Oduwale had independent access
to Catalyst Diagnostics'
database in 1982,

and then again here,
he cites it in 2013.

Thirty-one years.

We need access
to that database.Mmm-hmm.

We need to see
what Tommy found.

I'll push
that warrant through.

You want printouts
of these files,

or do you just want
to look at them on
the computer screen?

The printouts
would be best.

Any of the six names
that you have
in the database.

MAN: Usually, we don't
let anybody into the archive,

but warrants have a funny way
of opening doors.

Oh, wow.

Tyler Brandon Mills?

I thought that
was all over.

Score.

I'm getting all six.

[PRINTER WHIRRING]

What do you think?
EMILY: I'll see what else
they have in common.

Okay.

Thank you.

Here.

Tyler's barely
in here. Look.

Nothing since childhood.
No regular treatments.

Looks like he's
a dead end.No.

No, he's a part
of the pattern.How?

The violence, the hives.

MAN: Here are the other ones.

There's gotta be
missing data.

How long do you keep
patients' files stored?

Uh, depends.

Could be a few years.
Could be decades.

Could be indefinitely.

We keep medical records,
but we're also
the largest biobank

on the East Coast.
CAL: Biobank?

So, someone could
have access to blood
samples from years ago?

Not just blood.

We keep samples
of urine, skin samples,
organ tissue.

Anything that's left over
from routine tests.

You know, biopsies,
etcetera.

Why?
It's an enormous
resource for research.

Ever since the late '90s
when genetic testing
became more sophisticated,

these samples, they're
way too valuable
to just discard.

Cal.
Is that everything
you need?

For now.

WOMAN ON PA:
Dr. Hughes to the NICU.
Dr. Hughes to the NICU.

ALICE: Emily.

Hey, are you
leaving early?Uh, errands.

Can we talk
for a second?

Okay.

Do you mind
if we talk here?

Sure, yeah.

[CELL PHONE VIBRATING]

You need to get that?
No.

Uh...

What's happening
with Dr. Oduwale?
Nick told me.

Is there something
I should know about?

We're not sure just yet,

but you used to work
for him for a while, right?

Yeah, for years.

Did you ever hear
anything bad about him?

No. Never.

We're very fortunate
that he's agreed
to see Flynn.

Yeah.

I mean, of course.

But what about,
I mean, his ethics
regarding patients?

Did he ever
bend the rules?
Anything like that?

No. He would
never do that.

You really like him,
don't you?

I admire him.

He published
a paper in 2013
about blood chemistry,

and it's connected
to something that
the FBI is looking into.

Being very thorough.
Yeah.

I mean, of course.
It has to do with Flynn.

Listen, Emily,
if you find anything
that could affect Flynn...

We'll call you right away.
I promise.

Alice, um...

Thank you for everything
that you've done for Flynn,

for being there for him
for all these years.

He's lucky to have you.

We all are.

[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]

Thanks.

Hey.
Hey.

What's going on
with Dr. Oduwale?

If there's anything
I can do to help, I can...

Yeah.

Nick, we're trying
to connect him
to your case.

Uh, Tyler Brandon Mills?

How?
[SIGHS]

Come on. Follow me.

Hey, you wanna
come over here?

NICK: What's going on, Isaac?

We think Dr. Oduwale
ordered Rex Wolfe
to kill TBM.

What?

Oduwale got to know
Rex Wolfe during therapy
sessions at Fort Devens,

and then used him
to do the fentanyl murders.

[SIGHS]

That's...

Hey, hey...
That piece of shit.

I know.

He was working
with Flynn for months.

[BREATHING SHAKILY]

It's...

Hey.

I...

I'm... The...
We... We, um...

We subpoenaed Rex Wolfe's
phone records

right after he killed TBM.

We figured we could get
something from them
like a friend or a colleague

who helped him hide.
Let me guess.
He had no friends.

Or they were all big fans
of burner phones.

We got nothing.
That's a red flag
right there.

Listen, Nick, did TBM's
parents mention anything about
routine medical treatments?

All the vics had them.

See, Oduwale used
these treatments to
cover for his experiments.

Jesus.

[CLEARS THROAT]

We need to talk to the Mills.
I can go.

No, no, no.
I'll handle it.

It's my case.

Thanks.

Thank you for agreeing
to see me, Mrs. Mills.

I wouldn't be here
if it wasn't imperative.

Let's just make
this quick.

The last time I was here,
you mentioned sending
your son...

His name is Tyler.

You mentioned
sending Tyler
to group therapy.

[TV PLAYING INSIDE]

There were, uh...

There was an informal
one that helped.

They met at the hospital.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry,
I don't remember much.

He was physically
quite healthy, right?

Yes.
We've reviewed
Tyler's medical records.

We didn't find any
recurring health treatments.

He was never given any
psychotropic medications?

Um, we...

We never went
down that route.

My husband is
completely against it.

Mrs. Mills...

Sometimes when
nothing else works,

we do things.

We take calculated risks,

hoping that it will
pay off for our kids.

I certainly have.

Could you just...

Yeah, yeah.

[TV CONTINUES PLAYING]

Tyler really connected with

the doctor in that
hospital group.

Now, I never told
Chauncey this,
but the doctor said

that Tyler would dramatically
improve if he started
taking an experimental drug.

He said insurance wouldn't
cover the cost, but he would
give them to Tyler for free.

And Tyler told me
that they made his mind
work like lightning.

Would you be able
to recognize him,

the doctor?

Maybe. I don't know.
Okay.

Was this the man?

Yes, that's him.
Are you sure?

What was in those
injections?I don't know.

Did he turn my son
into a killer?

I can't, I'm sorry...

Please.
I'm sorry. I don't know.

[CRYING] No, please!
I don't know.

CAL: The same person
who ordered Rex Wolfe
to do the fentanyl killings

also ordered Detective
Tommy Gibbs's murder.

Dr. Semo Oduwale
was Rex Wolfe's
therapist at Fort Devens.

We also believe
that he recruited Wolfe

to help conduct
experiments on victims.

CAL: And when those
experiments went south,
he ordered Wolfe to kill them.

"To clean up his mistakes"
was the way Wolfe put it.

This is the first I'm hearing
about experiments.

There were clandestine.

All of the victims
had blood work done
at Catalyst Diagnostics,

which is why
Oduwale picked them.

And we verified
that Oduwale had
access to their database

through Project Quill
since 1982.What's Quill?

It's a psychobiology
think tank run out
of Saugus University.

It was defunded
in the early '90s.We think Oduwale went rogue,

and then he continued
his experiments elsewhere.

On human subjects.

Heather Mills identified
Dr. Oduwale as
her son's therapist.

He apparently injected Tyler
with an experimental drug.

And Detective Tommy Gibbs
connected Oduwale
to Catalyst Diagnostics

and to Project Quill,
so Oduwale had him killed.

We want to bring him in
for questioning.

Do it. Bring him in.

But Julianne and Cal
will handle the interview.

Emily, Nick, given your
connection to Oduwale,

you can't be a part
of that formal process.

Understood.

Dr. Oduwale,
I'm Special Agent Gunnarsen.

This is
Special Agent Isaac.

Thank you
for coming in today.

My pleasure.
If you're ready...

Sure.

Gunnarsen. That's
an interesting name.
What's your background?

I'm guessing Norwegian
or Swedish.You're right.

My paternal grandfather
was from Sweden.

Does this man look familiar?

Oh.

Rex Wolfe.

Yes, I do know him.

But I'm afraid this is
a case of doctor-patient
confidentiality.

Which I would be
willing to waive.

Thank you for understanding.

So I take it Wolfe
was a patient?

At Fort Devens,
about 10 years back.

I treated him for
about five or six months.

He was withdrawn.
Avoidant.

We often sat in silence.

Did your relationship
extend outside the room?

It barely extended inside.

JULIANNE:
Did he ever indicate
violent tendencies?

Never.

Have you had any contact
with Rex in subsequent years?

Not that I can recall.

But I'll admit,
I've treated hundreds
of military personnel.

I'm guessing that Rex
is in some kind of trouble?

I do what I can
for my patients, but
it's not an exact science.

I wish it were.

When I think of Flynn
having private sessions
with him...

ODUWALE: But any
specific conversations...
It was 30 years ago.

So, what do you think?
We have about 90 minutes?

Two hours.

I asked Cal
to slow-play it.

ODUWALE:
Not that I can recall.

[SIGHS]

Back in... This is
before the Gulf War.

CAL: You cited Catalyst
Diagnostics' database

as a resource
for biological data.

How long did you
have access to that?

For the duration of one study.

I was only permitted to
use their data on-site,
under supervision.

They're real sticklers
over there.

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATION]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Damn.

Before the recent
events at FEMA,

were you familiar with
Tyler Brandon Mills?

Tyler was my patient
for a time.

Difficult situation.

Tragic outcome.

Did you have anything
to do with it?

Excuse me?

Perhaps it was
the injections you gave him.

Did his mother tell you that?

That poor woman,
she tried everything
in her power to help her son.

She gave him kava extract.

She gave him St. John's wort,
which was disastrous
for his mental state.

Tyler's mother feels
you were the one to
give him some injections

to cure his issues.

Instead,
they made them worse.

Tyler's mother was preyed upon
by charlatans more than once.

Now, sadly, she has
me confused with someone else.

More than once,
I have been the target
of false accusations.

Now, do you have
any more questions?

Unfortunately, I have an
appointment this evening.

Yes.

We have just a few more.

Am I under arrest?

No. Of course not.

Then I have to go.

Please make an appointment
with Ms. Crandall
at the hospital,

if you'd like to schedule
in another discussion.

[DOOR BUZZES]

I sincerely hope
you find whoever it is
you're looking for.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[LINE RINGING]

Come on, pick up, pick up.

[LINE CONTINUES RINGING]

ON VOICEMAIL: This is Emily, leave a message.

[SIGHS]

[CELL PHONE VIBRATING]

EMILY: Hey.

NICK: Hey. Hey, he cleared out his office. He got everything.

He knows we're onto him now.

NICK: The interview's
probably over.

Don't worry.

I got this covered.

[CAR LOCK BEEPS]

[ODUWALE GRUNTING]

ODUWALE: Emily?

You better start talking.

[GROANS] What's going on?
You have any idea
what that is?

Emily, you gotta let me go.

That's Tyler Brandon Mills'

phosgene gas from
the evidence locker...

You've gotta let me go.
Do you know what
he had planned next?

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

He made these.

ODUWALE: Help!
More portable,

so he could take 'em
wherever he wanted.

[GRUNTING]

Emily...

You can't do this.

You're an FBI agent!

I entrusted you
with my son!

I can do whatever
I want to you.

I know Rex Wolfe
was your patient,

and I know you had him inject
at least six people with
some kind of serum.

And then you
had him kill them.

I don't know what
you're talking about!

Bullshit.

Do you know
how phosgene works?

Do you?

Emily, don't do this.

Emily!

Hey. Did Oduwale give up
anything in the interview?

No, no.
He never tripped up.

So where'd you go?

Uh...

Oduwale's office.

Did we get a warrant?
No, and it doesn't
matter anyway.

Someone cleared
the place out.
Probably Oduwale.

Mmm-hmm.

Have you seen Emily?
Is she back?

No. She's not in the office.
She's not answering her phone.

Do you have any idea
where she is?

Fuck.

Dr. Oduwale's house.

We have to leave right now.

Quickly.

Talk.

Emily, don't do this.
I said talk!

Talk!
Emily, please stop.

[ODUWALE HOLDS BREATH]

EMILY: You're gonna have
to breathe eventually.

That's how this gets inside.

[ODUWALE CHOKING]

There you go.

[ODUWALE COUGHING]
There you go.

Is your throat stinging?
Your eyes are, I can tell.

I'd say you have
eight minutes.
Three good ones.

Now that the gas is

inside your lungs, we can
just sit here and wait,

or we could talk and
I can take you to a hospital.

[EXHALES SHARPLY] Help!

[COUGHING]

Help!
Oh, you're coughing.

This is moving faster
than I expected.

It means that the tissue

in your lungs and in your
throat is liquefying.

[CHOKING]
Emily, stop this.

Please...
I am happy
to just let you die.

But I am curious,
why fentanyl?

[STUTTERING]
'Cause I failed.

I failed.

I had to cover all the traces
so that the work could go on.

What failed?

[ODUWALE COUGHING]

What did you inject them with?

A serum.

I developed a serum.

I injected them
with resilience.

And it worked.

It worked perfectly
on Rex Wolfe.

I cured his PTSD.

Is that why he was
an efficient killer?

No, Rex was a soldier,
a disciplined soldier.

But the civilians,
they failed.

They went wrong. Emily.
Please, stop this.

And the gas attack? Did you
inject Tyler Brandon Mills?

Rex took care of that.
And Tommy Gibbs?

For God's sake,
open the window!Was Tommy a mistake too?

He got too close.

How did you develop
the serum?

[COUGHS]

It started with animal trials.

Countless animal trials.

All failures.

I knew that if I was gonna

advance the work, I needed
a human subject. [COUGHS]

But I wouldn't
cross that line.

I couldn't.

Until I got sent a package.

A vial of blood.

No name, no address.

Just a note.

It said, "What do you
think of this?"

That blood had properties
I had never seen.

Way more advanced than the
hormonal compounds I'd found.

And they kept coming,
month after month.

Then I got an email.

"Are you ready to take
the next step?

"Are you ready to meet
the donor patient?"

And the rest you know.

It was Laurie.

She brought me to you.

Your blood was
the genesis of the serum.

You are connected to all
the fentanyl victims.

Your blood was in their veins.

You tortured me.

I made you what you are!

Your resilience got stronger
the longer you were caged.

I did that!

Do you see her car?

Nick.
ODUWALE: No!

That's not phosgene, is it?

Huh?

No, no.

You won't kill me.

You can't kill me.

Not until you know
about Flynn.

Did you inject Flynn?
Untie me!

Did you inject my son?

CAL: Byrne!
NICK: Emily!

[BOTH COUGHING]

What the hell, Byrne?
It's just tear gas.

[EXPLOSION]

NICK: Fire!

Jesus! Outside!

[ALL GROANING]

[COUGHING]

[GRUNTING]

Thank God you're here.

Come on.

Get me outta here before
she comes back. Untie me.
Come on. What are you doing?

CAL: What was that?

[GROANING]

CAL: Oh, my God.
Oduwale's been shot.
