Previously on Criminal
Minds: Evolution...

I used your birth name
and you didn't even notice.

This is where Lee Duval died
and where Elias Voit was born.

Do you feel in your heart of
hearts that you're a good person?

I feel like I can be.

I wouldn't trouble you were it
not of the utmost importance.

What is it you think you have?

Dare I say a manifesto.

"Some may call me a fan,
but He must call me God."

- Hello, Brian.
- Whoa. Special guest appearance?

Do not say one word
about him being here.

Hi, you're live on the air.

With whom do we have
the pleasure of speaking?

Call me God.

"Are you trying to profile me?"

I'm not speaking to you.

I'm speaking to Lance Kingston,
the man you're holding captive.

Penelope, talk to me.

Okay, I got him. I got him.

He's at the Stash-All Storage
Facility in Richmond, Virginia.

It's a garage unit being
rented by Lance Kingston.

- Is he there?
- Is who here?

- Voit.
- No.

Stop! He's gonna kill me.

- Yes, he's here.
- No!

Voit is here! Elias Voit is here.

You can talk to him.

_

What just happened?

You just caused a man's death.

We've got roadblocks up in
a five and ten mile radius.

We might have a victim inside,
and he might still be alive.

FBI, open up!

Oh, Jesus.

Is that...

It's flesh.

Burnt flesh.

He's been branded.

The residual smoke from the burn
would only last five to ten minutes.

Well, then the Fan
couldn't have gotten far.

Let's go.

- You find a pulse?
- It's there.

It's weak and thready, but it's there.

Do not seek to follow in
the footsteps of the wise.

Seek what they sought.

Matsuo Bashō.

Lance Kingston is alive.

Oh!

Thank God!

Oh!

Oh... Oh!

Sheila said this.

She said this... right
before she left me.

She said, "You're going
to get somebody hurt."

And then it came true. She was right.

I don't know how it happened,
but she was right. Ah!

Pfft.

I am done.

No more Sicarius Files.
No more conspiracies.

I am out for real.

- For real?
- Absolutely!

What happened to Lance is gonna weigh

on my heart for the rest of my life.

Oh, I'm sorry to say this, but
I'm very happy to hear that.

I'm kinda over-leveraged right now

because of the success of the podcast.

I was okay before the
money or the perks,

I mean, I'll... find a
way to be fine again.

Yeah.

Wait,

did you throw up in here?

I was literally sick with worry.

Emily, I'm so sorry.

Bill me for a new one,

like a fancy one.

Ugh.

Is Brian Garrity moonlighting
as a janitor for the FBI?

No.

He is not moonlighting
as anything anymore.

Good, because we just got this.

Mm-hmm.

Look at this.

What's this?

Crime scene report from the
storage locker where we found Lance.

Well, it's pristine.
Is this post-forensics?

This is the forensics.

No fibers, no hair, no nothing.

And based on the Fan's OCD,
I doubt he left any trace.

Which means you probably
struck out too, didn't you?

Yeah, I did.

The Fan paid for the storage
unit in cash under Lance's name,

and the rental agreement was typed up

on the same typewriter we know so well.

Which he also used when
he escalated to this.

There are eight letters
in the word pathetic,

so the Fan put eight brands
on each of Lance's arms.

Oh.

What?

This is the most detailed
MO we've seen from the Fan.

Does he still strike you as a
"hasn't killed yet" type unsub?

No, he doesn't.

So why didn't he kill Lance?

There you go.

Doesn't hurt.

Why doesn't it hurt?

Third degree burns destroy
the nerves in your skin,

including your pain receptors.

Lance, anything you can remember
about what happened from the moment

you were abducted will help us
catch the person who did this to you.

I woke up.

I was facing a monitor.

He told me to read off it.

That's all he said.

Is this because of Laura?

What do you mean?

First time you questioned
me was because...

because I was being an asshole
to Laura after she dumped me.

Is this all revenge for that?

- It's complicated.
- Mmm.

We think that he may have targeted you

so that we were distracted
investigating you instead of him.

Maybe I was pathetic.

Maybe I still am.

But I don't deserve this.

No, you don't.

So, anything you can remember...

you contact me.

And you can show him how not
pathetic you are on the witness stand.

All right?

We got another case.

It doesn't stop.

Of course we do. Where's this one?

Right in our backyard, uh,
two women who made their living

showing their wares on the internet
as camgirls have been murdered.

Regina Madsen and Lexie Clery.

Both were super popular streamers.

Did they stream on the same site?

No, different platforms.

Camgirls stream from all over the world.

How did the unsub find two
in the same geographical area?

Well, if either girl made a video that

showed outfacing windows or mentioned

their location even vaguely, a good
tracker would be able to find them.

Uh, like how we found Laura Boyd
using that tree in the background.

- Mmm.
- Is it possible this is the Fan?

He uses Lance to give us the
message he's not pathetic,

and then leaves the dead bodies
of two camgirls to prove it?

Well, don't jump to conclusions
yet. We don't know if it's connected.

- Garcia, continue.
- Correctamundo.

What we do know is that
last week Regina went live

to show her dead body, and then
last night, same deal with Lexie.

Wait, so now i-is this real money?

Mm-hmm. Green American dollars.

They both asphyxiated on it.

That's a hell of a murder weapon.

Based on the width of
the marks on their bodies,

looks like both women were restrained

with leather belts around their torsos.

Easier for the unsub
to force-feed them.

Can we source the leather?

We could try if the unsub
hadn't taken the belts with him.

Wait a minute, Lance Kingston said
he was restrained by leather belts

and that the Fan took
them with him as well.

And Lexie was murdered the
same night Lance was branded,

less than ten miles away
from where we found him.

Now let's jump to conclusions.

There's a shared MO of
binding the victims with belts.

You might see that, but definitely
not three times in one week.

Displaying the bodies of the camgirls

on a live stream speaks to a desire

to get out a message, but it...
it's also a type of exhibitionism.

It is similar to the Fan using Garrity's

live podcast to exhibit his power.

Okay, what's the opposing argument?

Well, if both cases are the Fan,

then his MO is all over the place.

And what, the money
stuffed down the throats

could be him making a statement
about the camgirls perceiving greed.

That's very different
from branding "pathetic."

Exactly. So, we have two
murders and one maiming.

Some of the details overlap, some don't.

So, we are going to go
where the evidence takes us.

These are two different perpetrators.

Dave, you and I will work on the Fan.

The rest of you
investigate the camgirls,

no matter what happens,
the clock is ticking.

So, we need to move fast.

- Penelope, can you come with me please?
- Yeah.

I know I'm asking the impossible,
but I need you on both cases.

- Can you do that?
- Absolutely.

That means prioritization,
triage, and when necessary,

you call an audible and ask for help.

Uh, hi. I'm Penelope Garcia.
This is what I live for.

I mean, I know that the gaggle of you

is the John, Paul and George of
crime fighting, but I am the Ringo.

You know, his birthday is July 7th.

That means he's a Cancer
and I'm a Cancer rising,

so we're the same
person, and I've got this.

All right, I have the footage
of Lexie and her boyfriend Rocco.

Let's run down the timeline.

Lexie and Rocco had just
finished a performance.

And the show was, "Hell if
the devil was a dominatrix."

Yes.

So, uh, looking at this, they did
the entire stream from right here.

Bad boy.

Lexie gives Rocco a final shock.

- Ah. Red. Red.
- Uh.

Rocco yells out the safe word
and they stop the performance.

- Oh.
- Here.

- Better?
- Oh. I'm good now.

Lexie and Rocco always made it a point

to show their audience
their aftercare routine.

Our next show starts in an hour.

Get in the room early and you might

just get a special shout-out from me.

And everything's fine.

Uh, then Rocco leaves the apartment at

ten o'clock to get them both some food.

- See you later.
- I'll see you in a bit, beautiful.

GPS on his phone has
him back here by 10:42.

All right, let's go.

All right.

This unsub must have been
stalking Lexie online and off.

He knew when her next show was,

but he also knew to
wait until she was alone.

Right, so the unsub watches
Rocco leave, sneaks in here.

Lexie must have thought it was Rocco.

Forget your wallet again?

What?

Get off of me!

He restrains her.

What are you doing?

What do you want? No!

And then he forces
the cash down her throat.

That would've required an
incredible amount of effort and rage.

She would have been choking
on the money, vomiting into it,

but he didn't stop
even after she had died.

When he finally finishes,
he removes the belt,

turns on the camera, and he leaves.

How much money was it?

It's $1,976.

Is there any specific order,

one that maybe speaks
to an unsub with OCD?

Oh, it doesn't get more OCD than this.

Same denominations for each victim.

Nineteen 100s, three 20s,
one ten, one five, one one.

- They're all in sequential order.
- Mm-hmm.

And Lexie's numbers pick
up where Regina's left off.

Which is totally something
you guys can track, right?

Well, if this were a money
laundering case, yeah,

but it's not a crime to ask a
teller about sequential bills.

Mmm.

No, but it does speak to his
OCD and his level of means.

I mean, he dropped nearly
$4,000 on two women.

Okay, so whether or not this is the Fan,

we need to figure out
what 1976 means to him.

The Fan, is that Mr. Pathetic?

Thank you, doc. We'll be in touch.

That's not a no.

Okay, forensics is still working
on matching the restraint marks

on Lance's arms with that
of our poor camgirls...

cam women, uh, but the width
is the same, 1.5 inches.

That's most men's belts.

Ergo, I have pivoted and
I'm using my focusing muscles

to search for the typewriting
font on Lance's brands.

Comparing typewriter serifs is

how we helped build the
case against the Unabomber.

The serif on Lance's
brand is bigger than

the letters he wrote
to Voit and Garrity.

- Could he have made it himself?
- Oh, that's doubtful.

The typewriter bars,
the things that make that

click-clacky on the paper, you know...

We know what typewriter bars are.

There's a lack of variation to them,

but these letters are... are in
perfect proportion, you know, apart.

Which means he took
the typewriter bars out

of the typewriter to make
his own "pathetic" brand.

Which when you step that out, it
does make sense with the OCD of it all

because the typewriter he's using

to write the letters to Voit and Garrity

that's his old faithful,

but the one he's using to make the

brands, he's just scavenging for parts.

So, all we'd like you
to do is track down

the brand of the brand, no pun intended.

Yes, no, I understand. And
ding-ding, uh, good news, um...

The brands, the company kind, not the...

You know what I'm saying,
they're available regionally.

Typewriting is a dying art,

and large typewriter faces
are rare and expensive.

So-So he could have traded
with another collector.

That means if we can figure
out where he bought it,

we can use that to find him.

Good work, Penelope.

Uh, where are we with
the streaming sites?

The... the streaming sites
that our two dead camgirls used.

Is there any overlap with subscribers?

Uh, yes. Uh. Yes, I have
a request in for that.

You didn't forget, did you?

No, of course not.
They're playing hardball.

They don't want to admit that
they're hiding a serial killer,

but I play a game I
like to call harder ball,

which I'm going to play right now
in my office, running in my heels.

Where are we?

We're building a pro and con list.

Pro, the Fan killed the
camgirls and maimed Lance.

Con, Regina and Lexie were
killed by a separate unsub.

Walk us through both arguments.

On the pro side, the Fan's OCD
led to him using sequential bills,

the leather belt restraints, and
the live stream spectacle of it all.

And the con?

The agendas are completely different.

The Fan's agenda, it's about ego, right?

It's a message to Voit.

With the camgirls, it's about femicide.

It's a message to their audiences.

It profiles like the live stream
murders in Mexico last year.

And there's also this.

There was nothing left on Lance,

but there was trace evidence of
leather on both the camgirls' bodies.

The Fan's OCD won't
vary with his victims.

Agreed. So, we separate investigations.

Priority will be on the
unsub killing camgirls.

Why? They're both urgent.

They are, but... the Fan
knows how to practice discipline.

He won't surface again until he's ready.

Whoever is killing these
camgirls isn't so patient.

He's going to kill
again as soon as he can.

_

What's another word for tremble?

Dude, are you paying attention?

We're about to start playing.

I know, but I have to finish this
right now or I won't get paid.

- This guy's intense.
- Hey, Trixie,

can we have one session
uninterrupted by your sex work?

Excuse me, but didn't you beg me to play

this game with you
because you suck at it?

Whatever, bro. Can it
just wait until after this fight?

This is the only time I have to play.

Until you can literally
fight your own battles,

I'll do my sex work
whenever the fuck I want.

Ugh. Just take a break.

Fine. Let me just...

send a couple more sexy messages,
and I'll be ready to fight.

Good. Make it quick.

_

The word is quiver, by the way.

Quiver. That's perfect. Thank you.

You are making me quiver,
thinking of your hand on my throat.

- That's good. That's good.
- Ugh.

Are you done yet, Trixie?

Almost there. Chill, dude.

I don't judge you with your job.

I don't sext with other dudes.

This is good.

Yeah, call me princess, and I'll
do whatever you say, Zaddy with a Z.

Uh. Excuse me, what do you...

Percy.

- Percy. Hey, are you...
- No.

Ah, bro, what... what are you doing?

Get it... Okay, man, let's...

Wait, wait, wait, let's
talk about this. Wait, wait.

You want money or
something? What do you want?

Why? No, no.

Please... No.

All right. We're good
then. Thanks, officer.

You got it.

Hey.

Seems our unsub's type has expanded.

Not quite. Percy Stuben had an
online persona called Trixie.

Apparently he was catfishing men.

According to the online pic,

Trixie is very similar
to Lexie and Regina.

Similar how?

Feathered hair, bell bottom
jeans, the kind of wet t-shirt look

favored by Jacqueline
Bisset in The Deep.

That's a 70s movie?

I will kill you, and no one
will ever find your body.

My point is,

- we know 1976 is important to this unsub.
- Mm-hmm.

Our two camgirls and our one catfisher

all have this throwback 70s vibe.

- But they're all millennials.
- Mm-hmm.

In Percy's case, a man.

Yeah. Percy was very, very careful.

He never cammed. He
only did text exchanges.

Ah. Makes sense. He didn't
want them to see his face.

Most catfishers do everything
they can to stay in the shadows.

Right.

So how did a dude posing as a throwback

70s chick get on this unsub's radar?

If I had to guess,

the unsub found out he wasn't
actually hot redhead Trixie

and made him pay.

That would mean he was as close to
Trixie as the other two camgirls.

I mean, finding out he was being

catfished would likely to have sent him

into an even bigger rage.

I mean, ugh, Percy's
blood is on this chair.

Check this out.

The unsub left the belt
behind on the body this time,

and it's cowhide, which is pretty much

the most common leather you can find.

He might have been in a hurry.

According to Garcia,

Percy was in the middle of a live
gaming chat when he was murdered.

And he was also chatting
to a "DOG DAD 47."

You think either of the people
he was talking to is our unsub?

It depends on who he was gaming with.

Percy and I weren't
on video at the time,

so I didn't see anything,
but it sounded rough.

How much did you hear?

All of it.

Then Percy's camera
turned on, and I saw...

Kenny, I know this is tough,

but how much did you know about
what Percy did for a living?

Too much.

I mean, he was always bragging

about how much he was
scamming off these lonely guys.

Did Percy receive any threats from
the men that he was catfishing?

- Catfishing?
- We went through Percy's logs.

He was pretending to be a
different hot woman in each one.

Ah. Nah, you've got it wrong.

- Percy was a chatter.
- What's a chatter?

When these girls get too many followers

wanting one-on-ones, it's overwhelming.

So, they outsource the
texts to people like Percy.

He worked for a bunch of them.

Okay. So, Percy was there to
keep customers feeling special,

connected to the camgirls?

Yeah.

They'd send more money to the
girls, and Percy would get a cut.

Did he work on a specific platform?

Yeah, there's a chatter
app for all the platforms.

He used to do freelance chatting
here and there, but he got headhunted.

I can't believe someone
murdered him for it.

Yo, bro, am I, like, free to go?

I need to get, like, celestially
high to stop thinking about this.

Yeah. Yeah, thanks.

You want me to hack a chatter app?

- Yeah, is that a problem?
- Ew, ew. No.

Why would it be?

Stop grilling me with
your eyes. Okay, okay.

I hit some speed bumps
with the cam sites.

It turns out when your profit motive
is linked to internet security,

i-it can be tricky for a
mermaid like me to trip you up.

But that is not an issue,
that is an "iss-me."

And yes, of course, I-I will, I will...

I will look into your chatter app.

Just give me just... a second.

Is this coffee?

Did you switch from tea to coffee?

No, I switched from
coffee to triple espresso.

Penelope, when is the
last time you slept?

When was the last time you slept?

Don't answer that 'cause I know...
clearly it was b-before I did,

but you know what they say about sleep?

- That it's, um...
- Necessary?

... overrated, it is
overrated for me right now.

And look, I mean this,
it's going to sound mean,

but with all love in my heart, get
out of my face right now, please.

Okay. Geez.

Well, there... there it is again.

Geography.

It's been bugging me
since we got this case.

So, you can be a camgirl, a chatter from

anywhere in the US, the world even.

So how has this unsub
found three victims

all within a 150-mile
radius of each other?

It can't be an accident.

Being local must be important to him.

- Look!
- What? You got something for us?

Yes. I have got
something, but not for you.

Not for you.

But I'm not gonna forget the cam sites

and the chatter app,
but, uh, but first...

What was I saying?

- You got something, but not for us.
- Yes, yes, and I gotta go.

I gotta go do that. Excuse me. Let's go.

Thank you.

Have I got an update for you.

- Do you see that, that right there?
- The exclamation point.

That is not supposed to exist
because typewriters made before 1960s

didn't have a one key.

- Wait.
- No, she's right.

I remember you would
use the lowercase L.

So, if there's no one, there's
no exclamation point either.

Well, did the Fan get a special
plate for just one punctuation mark?

I don't think so. I think he
used a period and an apostrophe

and made his own exclamation plate.

Which means he didn't
use any modern typewriter.

And older typewriters have very
limited, you know, variety of typefaces

which narrows down where he's
getting his building materials from.

Not to mention the larger font,

that should make it
easier to find as well.

Mm-hmm. And even if he had
a large font typewriter,

he'd still need to get another
striker because pathetic has two T's.

What's the point of all that?

Just to call us pathetic?

Might not be for us.

Right.

Right. Let's go see him.

- Is he...
- Don't worry about him.

What about you...

Is that the same outfit
you wore yesterday?

Did you go to bed last night?

Yeah, I som...

I don't... I'm fine. Why do
I have to change every day?

Inmates, clear the tier.

Well, he's not Mark David Chapman.

No, he's not.

What is he then?

A copycat of you.

I never branded anyone.

Ever restrained anyone
with a leather belt?

There are three kinds of copycats.

One who wants to learn everything

he can about the killer he's emulating.

One who wants everyone
to think that his crimes

are being committed by
the killer he's emulating.

And then there's the third,

the one who wants to be
better than his predecessor.

Like Derek Brown. You remember him?

Yeah. He copied Jack the Ripper,

but they never found the
bodies of his two victims,

so he was almost better
until they caught him.

Studied that case after
you wrote a book about it.

Exactly.

Ah. I see what you're saying.

It's almost like I'm a
copycat of you, right, Dave?

We think the Fan is like Brown,
or the school shooter model

inspired by the Columbine shooters,
only he's trying to surpass you.

So, he's doing everything I
did before I started killing,

but now he feels advanced
enough to do his own thing,

which means it's
probably isn't his first.

That's what we thought.

Who do you think it is?

I don't know.

You know.

- No, I don't know...
- You know.

And you've already done
something, haven't you?

Dave,

you said yourself,
I've grown a conscience.

I wouldn't do anything
to jeopardize your trust.

Yeah.

You've studied me and I've studied you.

So, whatever you did,
I will figure it out.

No.

Yeah, all the information was in the ad.

No, I'm not gonna drop the
price on the podcast notes.

Do you have any idea what's
in there? Do you understand?

They should be in the Smithsonian.

The price is non-negotiable.

No, I'm not gonna throw
in the podcast sign.

Because someone's on the
way right now to buy it.

Okay, you listen to me, you little shit.

Oh. All right, here's
what I can do for you.

Hey, Brian.

Sheila.

Can I come in?

Oh... yeah, sure.

I wasn't expecting you.

- You look fantastic.
- Aw.

- I didn't mean...
- No, no. It's okay.

Listen, after the divorce, I could
finally sleep more than four hours.

I got a gym membership
and a nutritionist.

- What?
- No, it's...

No, it's okay. You can say it.

I guess I'm realizing
that you taking care of me

probably got in the way of
you taking care of yourself.

It's funny. Bob says the same thing.

Bob from work?

You talking about me a lot
with your IRS colleagues?

No, only the ones who make me breakfast.

Ah. Right.

Can I, uh, can I see that?

Oh, this is... nothing. I'm selling it.

I-I know, I'm the one who's buying it.

You listen to The Sicarius Files?

Just the last episode and
you know, I was impressed.

And then I realized that you
met an actual serial killer

and then I was kind
of worried about you.

So, I think I'm just trying
to make sure you're okay.

Well, I don't know what to say.

Say you'll give me a discount.

Turns out my niece is a huge fan,

so I'm trying to get some...
some cool auntie points.

Come on.

Look. Merino wool.

Oh, thanks.

Thank you.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Okay, so after the divorce, you
wanted nothing more to do with me.

You went no contact.

How did you even find
out about the podcast?

There was someone who called me
and said that I should listen.

Who called you?

I don't know, it was Lee something.

- Lee Duval?
- Yeah, that's it. Do you know him?

Yes, I do.

Okay. Well, thanks.

Open up.

Brian, thank you for coming to see me.

Where did you get the phone?

What?

Where did you get the phone
you used to call my wife?

Oh. Ex-wife.

Seriously, you're gonna narc on me?

- Excuse me, I need to tell you something.
- Jesus Christ. Okay.

Okay, look, I had to get you a message

so that you would come and see me.

I just wanted to say
thank you for your service.

Well, wives are off-limits.

Wives, children, exes,
estranged or otherwise,

don't act like you don't know
how this works all of a sudden.

Do you wanna hear my message?

Okay.

I too know what it's like to
lose the person whose respect

you want more than
anything in the world.

I too know what it's like to want to do

anything to look better in their eyes.

And I know how you can do that.

What are you talking about?

She got hooked on the
podcast, didn't she?

I wouldn't say hooked. She
was impressed, but anyway,

it doesn't matter because
the podcast is over.

Well, what if it's not?

I have another message for the Fan.

On an SD card recorded on the same
phone I used to call your ex-wife.

Give it to the BAU.

Yeah, they have a
tendency to screw shit up.

You screwed shit up when
you insulted the Fan.

You're right, I did.

I tried to control the story.

I tried to control what
people thought of me,

but I only made things worse
because it's not my story anymore.

It's yours.

Can I tell you what I think?

Please.

I think you see me as an
easily manipulatable patsy,

someone you can get to do your
bidding with a little ego boost

or if that doesn't work,
you throw in a little,

"Oh, Brian, we're not so
different, you and I." Am I close?

Well, let me tell you something.

And this is coming
from a very real place.

You and I are very different.

Mmm.

Well, do you even know
what that difference is?

There is a burgeoning
serial killer out there

who I'm pretty sure
has already killed once

but is in a bit of a cooling off period.

And why do you think that is?

What has happened to distract
him to stop him from escalating?

My show.

And that is the difference
between you and me.

I can't stop him from in here.

The BAU can't stop him
from anywhere but...

you can.

Thank you for coming to see me.

Wow. What's all this?

Uh, Garcia got all the online chats
Percy had with paying customers.

"Until the room stinks."

I don't know why I'm reading
it out loud. I'm sorry.

Yes, uh... so way more than

half of these are much older gentlemen.

Yeah, it looks like Percy was
real popular with the AARP army.

Okay, so could our
unsub be an older man?

That would explain why
1976 means so much to him.

That could be when
his lovemap was formed.

Well, that tracks.

All of our victims made
videos in a '70s persona.

These chats all mentioned food.

So, I looked through some of Regina's

older videos from the time of the chats.

She did a series of mukbangs
with some very regional foods.

What's a mukbang?

Oh. It is when someone eats an
insane amount of food on camera.

I cannot tell you why, but
they are incredibly popular.

So popular that Lexie did one as well.

Regina had a ton of blue crabs.

Lexie finished hers with a
big box of Berger cookies.

Yeah, we're talking incredibly regional.

Without saying where they lived,

these women still ended
up exposing themselves.

- Yeah.
- Mmm.

Solves your geo-profile problem.

Yeah, it's part of his
parasocial delusion.

He wants to believe these
women were his peers.

They grew up in the old neighborhood.
Remember how good it was.

And then when the relationship
soured, he killed them.

We need to comb all of our
victims' communications.

I mean, any mention of regional
food could be our unsub.

Okay, we are gonna have to come
back and help you read through these.

We gotta get to the ME. They
finished Percy's autopsy.

- Sorry.
- Mmm.

Oh, come on.

He put coins inside Percy?

Not only did he use coins this
time, his total was changed.

I took all the cash from
Percy's mouth and stomach,

and then I found two
dimes deep in his bowels,

bringing the grand total to $395.20.

Wait, that's... that's exactly
20% of Lexie and Regina's amounts.

What?

I got good at mental
math from playing darts.

I needed a calculator...
but you're right.

I looked for more coins and bills
in case I was missing something,

but that's all I found.

I called you in so fast because
I was worried there might be

four other victims making up
the rest of the money somewhere.

I-I don't think it's that.

We thought 1976 was about a date,

but if he's willing to make a 20% cut

for the guy who took 20%
of the camgirls' earnings,

he's saying something else.

Like what?

Not sure.

Sometimes a cigar is a cigar, maybe
the money is just about the money.

I spoke with forensics.

The brands on Lance Kingston's
body are all the same depth,

meaning all the letters are
the same brand of typewriter.

Penelope, you said you
had something on that.

Penelope, hey.

- Hey.
- Huh? Huh?

Hey. You called typewriter
shops about letter strikers?

Yeah, I sure did. I-I called...

I called, uh, almost every
typewriter, collector,

supplier, and repair shop
in the eastern seaboard

looking for the rare six CPI
set of strikers, and I found two.

Great. Where are they?

Oh, one was at a vintage
warehouse in New York.

Uh. That one was
stolen a few months ago.

And the other one was a gift
to a Philadelphia university

and that one was also stolen.

That's where the Fan's
letters were postmarked from.

There was something else I wondered...

Oh, I-I... Okay.

So, the lab hit a dead end
when it came to the restraints

that the Fan was using on Lance,
so I went a different route.

"Root?" I went a different direction,

and the indentations on Lance's
wrist matches stingray skin.

Stingray skin?

Yeah, that's what those weird
bumps on Lance's arms were.

Stingray leather retains the
same bumps as Stingray's skin.

Well, stingray leather
should be easier to track.

Oh, yeah, which is why
I'm one step ahead of you.

There's this.

Um, so, a few months ago, a-a
Pennsylvania college student,

female, she was strangled with a belt.

Her name was Victoria Everman.

And based on the patterns on her neck,

they were able to determine
that it was stingray leather.

Cameras on campus weren't
able to track the assailant.

Of course not.

His OCD forces him to make sure
he knew when he was being watched.

There is one silver lining, though.

For all the Fan's
attempts to throw us off,

he has inadvertently revealed
something about himself.

Stingray leather, that's his signature.

Russell. Russell.

Russell. Russell.

Favorite movie, any western,
probably from the '70s.

Ah, right. Ah...

Misses the old menu at Bronze
Pint Tavern in downtown Baltimore.

Obsessed with Charlie's Angels.

Used to play pinball with his son.

Misses when his wife
would laugh at his jokes.

_

So, what does 1976 mean in terms of how

these victims are
charging their clients?

I don't think it's about money.

Lexie's boyfriend said they
were charging $30 an hour.

For this guy to have blown
upwards of 1,900 bucks,

she'd have had to have been
on with him for over 60 hours.

Okay, so maybe 1976 is a symbolic amount

of money, not just the total spent,

but that number is part of
the message he's sending out.

Like Social Security.

Wow, how did you get there?

My grandma gets one of
those checks every month.

Here it is.

The average Social Security
benefit is just under $2000.

That would tie it all together.

It would say something not just about

his preferences with these camgirls,

but he would have been spending
his entire monthly income on them.

I just searched Percy's logs for any

mention of a Social Security check,

and I found one series of
chats with a Russell Kirkland.

Could it be our unsub?

Well, according to his
profile, he's in his 70s,

born and raised in Maryland.

He checks all the boxes.

Uncheck those boxes because
Russell Kirkland is dead,

committed suicide about a month ago.

If this guy isn't our unsub, who is?

Okay.

Okay. Pinball, laugh, westerns.

Okay.

Right.

Well, hello there, Russell.
It's been a long time.

Oh. That's a bummer.

I'm glad you're back.

How are you today?

_

Russell.

You did say I was your favorite,

ruined you for all the
other ladies, is it?

_

Okay, chill, man, or I'm
gonna turn off the stream.

Man, I got a sweet power nap in,

and Tyler and I are here to crush this.

After finding Russell's
death certificate,

I thought maybe the real
unsub could be killing camgirls

as revenge for Russell's suicide.

Enter Russell's son Jace.

Now, based on bank records,

Jace's had to send his father
money for the last year.

Allons-y with alacrity
for the 411 on Jace.

Okay, so what are these documents?

Those are emails from Russell
to his lawyer, trying to get

his money back from the
women who worked as camgirls.

He tried every angle,
financial abuse, elder abuse,

scams, fraud, you name it, to no avail.

Regina, Trixie, and Lexie are
all mentioned in those emails.

Okay, but looks like his
lawyer dismissed all the claims

because the transactions
were all above board.

Yeah, that's what happens when you hit

"agree to the terms and conditions"

without reading the terms
and conditions, people.

So, his son took the
law into his own hands

where he feels the system
failed him? Where is Jace now?

I sent you his work and home address.

Did Kirkland mention any of
the other women in his emails?

No, unfortunately, Jace got to them all.

Except for one, Cora Sault.

All right, we need
to divide and conquer.

All right, uh, you take Jace's
work. I'll take his home.

- Yeah.
- We'll take Cora. Let's hit it.

_

_

_

Okay, what the fuck
are you talking about?

_

Okay.

Jesus.

Whoa! Whoa! Hey!

It's time to put on a show.

What... what the fuck?

What the fuck?

What's going on?

What is going on?

You know who I am?

You're Russell's son, aren't you?

My dad told you about me?

Yeah.

Yeah, he was very proud of you.

You charged him $70 an hour so he could

tell you how proud he was of me?

- Bullshit!
- No, it's not. It's not.

Do you wanna know why
I talked to your father?

I know why!

Mom died, so you pretended
to like a grieving man.

No, that's not true.

I-I talked to him because you didn't.

He just wanted company.

I-I talked to him
because you were too busy.

Oh, my God. Please, no, no, no, no.

FBI! No. Drop the knife, Jace.

No, no, they all need to pay
for what they did to my father.

- Jace!
- Stay back!

Don't do this, Jace.

I know you think something precious was

taken from you, and
you blame these women,

but it was your father who
chose to give them all his money.

No, no. He needed that money
and these whores manipulated him.

- They... they made him...
- Pathetic?

Your father wasn't pathetic,
Jace, and neither are you.

Listen to me, Jace.

If you don't drop that knife, my
partner's gonna have to shoot you.

And you know what they're
gonna say about you

when they wheel you out
of here in a body bag?

That you were pathetic.

No, they won't.

Yes, they will.

Isn't that what you
thought about your father

when you found out how
much he spent on camgirls?

You have one chance to change
how your story is told, Jace.

And it starts with dropping that knife.

Hands behind your back.

- Okay.
- All right, you're all right?

- Yeah. Okay.
- Okay.

- I got you.
- Thank you.

Jace Russell, you have
the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can and will be
used against you in the court of law.

That was a risky move.

How'd you know it would work?

I didn't, honestly.

I just had a feeling.

I mean, the Fan is not Jace,

and Jace is not the Fan, but...

they fit the same profile.

- Emily.
- Brian, what are you doing back here?

Gather the team.

There's something
you're gonna wanna see.

You don't get to... Ugh.

We really should be doing
this in the roundtable room.

That is for this team, not
your random visits to Quantico.

- What's going on?
- I went to see Voit today.

You did what? What happened
to swearing off Sicarius?

I did, but then he got
my ex-wife involved.

So, I went down there to...

I don't know what I was gonna do. But...

while I was there, he gave me this.

It's a recording of himself for the Fan.

He wants me to play
it on my next podcast.

But you quit the podcast.

- Brian, you quit the podcast, right?
- Yeah.

Yes, yes. But I realized
I could manipulate Voit

if he thinks I'm manipulatable,

which would give this team an advantage.

Let me get this straight.

You played Voit?

I did.

This is Elias Voit.

And I have a message for my Fan.

You're changing.

You're evolving.

You wanna know more about yourself,

and that's why you're
reaching out to me.

Well, I'm evolving too.

And I've learned that you don't
have to give in to your urges.

I've been where you are.

Talk to me. I can help you
keep the monsters at bay.

I'm...

I'm trying...

to make right with some
of the people I've hurt.

And I think by stopping you from
becoming me, is how I can do that.

Here is the Voit that we know and love.

This asshole thinks he can do
our jobs better than we can.

He's trying to get
the Fan to come to him.

Well, yes, but that
raises the larger question.

I mean, it was the
whole basis of my show.

Did Elias Voit actually develop empathy?

- Or was it all a sham?
- Exactly.

And if it is a sham, how does it
affect the team member who helped him?

The character testimony at Voit's
sentencing was an FBI agent.

What are you talking about?

There was a closed-door testimony
from an FBI agent supporting

the theory that Voit had reformed
because of his brain trauma.

Who was it?

Well, the ID was blacked out,
but it led to Voit getting

life in prison instead
of a needle in his arm.

Is this news to you all?

Brian, give us a moment.

We need to discuss this privately.

My office, please.

Okay.

Who was it?

Brain trauma?

No, no. Absolutely not.

Yes, I am a forensic psychologist,
but I would never testify to that.

Someone not on the team,
maybe someone who...

It was me.

I'm sorry.

I was terrified to say anything.

That's why it was closed-door.

That's why I've been so restless.

I knew it was gonna come out.

And... I-I knew how you'd feel about it.

I wanted to tell you at the right...

But I'm too tired to
keep it a secret anymore.

It was me.
