Original subtitles

Where is she? This way. I found her hiding in the shed and she won't come

out. She's pretty scared.

Is she injured?

She's got bloody feet and she also has her wrists. I think she was tied up.

Got to be her, right?

The girl from the news.

Amanda?

Amanda?

It's the police, Amanda.

She was in here, I swear.

Get the dogs.

As a private investigator, you tend to work a lot of low-profile, under-the

-radar cases, helping those who have no one else to turn to.

I was a little surprised when I got a call from the parents of Amanda Sacco.

She was abducted six weeks back, but escaped after a few days.

Tough kid. Case got a lot of attention.

They had HPD, 5-0, even the FBI on it, which makes me wonder, what do they want

with me?

We want you to catch the person who took Amanda.

As far as I know, HPD is still investigating the case, right?

Technically, but they haven't made any progress.

The man who kidnapped our daughter is still out there.

I learned a little bit about what happened from the news. She was taken

not too far from here, right?

She was walking over to her friend Sophie's house. They were doing SAT

prep. She forgot her laptop and was walking back to get it. Except she never

made it back here.

He walked up to her on the street, blew some...

Powder in her face, this... They call it devil's breath?

Mm, scopolamine.

Right.

He put her in a trunk, took her out to the woods, stuck her in a shed or

something. He blindfolded her and tied her up.

But she escaped.

After five days.

The police found her out near a farm in Waialua.

And he never attempted to contact you or made any ransom demands? No.

Not that we could give him much.

I'm an IT consultant.

Mari's a math teacher at Oahu Prep.

Mr. and Mrs. Sacco, I am sorry to have to ask this, but... He didn't touch her.

Not that way, at least.

It's okay. We know it's relevant.

We still don't know why he took her. The police said they thought maybe he was

going to... I don't know... sell her.

Can I talk to Amanda?

You can try.

Amanda?

This is Mr. Magnum.

He's the private investigator we were telling you about.

Hi, Amanda.

I'm Thomas.

Nice to meet you.

Hi.

Do you mind if I, uh... Mind if I talk to you for a minute?

Where is that?

Is that Akaka Falls?

One of your favorite places, maybe, huh?

No.

Amanda, please, he's trying to help.

I don't want his help. I told you I don't want to do this. Honey, no, no,

it's... It's okay.

It's, um...

It's hard to talk to people after what you've been through.

You don't know who to trust.

Believe me.

I know what it's like.

Really? You know what it feels like?

I was held when I was in the military.

I get it.

Look, I just... I just want to put it behind me, okay?

But I can't do that when everyone keeps bringing it up. I just want to... I just

want to be left alone.

This was our daughter.

We were so grateful when they found her. We thought they got her back, but they

didn't. Not this girl.

This girl didn't come home.

Finding the man who took her is the only thing that will bring her back.

I got what Alan was saying. In a way, Amanda's still a prisoner.

Her parents think finding their daughter's kidnapper will help her heal.

I have my own personal reasons to think they're right. But if I'm going to get

anywhere, she needs to tell me what happened first, and that might require

help from someone with a more gentle touch.

Pretty badass.

Mahalo, Kendra. Ready?

Yeah.

Pull.

Whoa!

What are you doing?

You okay, Thomas?

Yeah, just suffering from a minor heart attack. No big deal.

You don't think I'd actually shot at you, Magnum? To be fair, it could have

happened. She's right.

Yeah, but I wouldn't have missed, is my point. Pull.

Thomas, do me a favor and take over for me. I got to get to the cultural center.

Aloha! Aloha.

Well?

Well, what?

You want a favor? Out with it.

I don't want anything from you.

It's for a client, correct?

Yeah. Well, then it's really for you.

Okay, my client is Amanda Sacco. You know, the girl that was kidnapped not

too long ago?

I don't understand.

I mean, if she won't talk to you, what is it you think I could do?

You know Rick knew Zotisi and I were held by the Taliban, right?

Uh, yeah.

I heard about that.

Okay, so after we escaped, we got sent to this military hospital in Germany and

met this corpsman who had lost four guys in his unit.

You know, he was spiraling. None of the meds or therapies they tried on him

worked. But the one thing that did help was yoga.

There have been several controlled trials showing that yoga helps with

PTSD. Yeah, well, I know this might be a long shot, but I'm thinking that maybe

it could help Amanda.

Plus, she was taken by a man, and I just feel like she might be more comfortable

around a woman.

I just don't know what else to do.

Well, he likes you. He's hard to please.

Well, I'm not going to answer any questions.

Well, that's all right, because I'm not going to ask you any.

Then why am I here?

Questions, or even talking, are useless in the state you're in.

My state?

A state of imbalance.

Now, the purpose of yoga is balance.

Until you're balanced you're no good to anyone especially yourself

Trust

me

You think I do this to stay in shape?

Palms up.

Come on.

Matsumoto.

Thanks for coming.

I gotta admit, I didn't think you'd want to help.

Normally you don't appreciate my, uh, interference.

Maybe you're growing on me, Magnum.

You're not growing on me. I'm helping because it could help both of us.

And more importantly, Amanda.

Here's the case file.

It's thin.

Amanda was traumatized and wouldn't really talk to us. Plus, she never got a

good look at her kidnapper.

So you canvassed the neighborhood. You come up with anything?

No. We also talked to her friends, teachers. We dumped her phone. Still

nothing.

How is that even possible?

I don't know.

But one thing I do know is that predator is still out there.

Maybe he'll grab some other kid. Maybe he already has. Maybe there were others

before Amanda. Point is, I want to catch this guy before he harms anyone else.

and give that young lady some peace. But I keep hitting a wall, so you can

generate a lead.

Well, I'm just fine with that.

Six weeks ago, the guy who owns this place found her hiding in there. And she

took off right before we got here.

Any idea why?

I think she was scared.

She just spent five days in captivity, bound to a wall in some dark, windowless

place.

Both hands were zip-tied.

He had her deep in the woods, somewhere out there.

You have an idea where?

Well, tracing her footprints, they all came from somewhere east of here.

And we think after she escaped, she ran for two to three hours, which means she

could have traveled up to a dozen miles that night.

So your search grid must have covered at least 100 square miles.

115.

And believe me, we searched every inch.

Didn't find a thing.

One hand.

Easy, slowly.

I

can't do

this. Yes, you can.

You absolutely can.

And when you do, you'll realize there is nothing more empowering than your body

achieving something your mind thought it couldn't.

It's not that easy.

Nothing is.

Cannot let what happened to you chart the course of the rest of your life.

What makes you such an expert?

Age.

For one thing.

You're not that old.

Thank you.

But age is more than a measurement of time. It's a catalogue of experiences.

And I too have some unpleasant ones.

I told you.

I don't just do this to stay in shape.

No. No.

No. Millie.

Hey.

Is Amanda okay?

Yes.

And I think she's ready to talk.

There's a lot I don't remember.

Just tell us what you do remember.

I couldn't get my hands free.

Finally, I dislocated my thumb.

I had no idea where I was.

I just kept running as fast as I could.

And I found that man's house.

I don't remember much else.

You are a very strong young woman.

Noah Higgins is right.

You know, when I was a prisoner in Afghanistan, it was my obligation to try

to escape. Not to mention I had three weeks of naval training on how to do it.

I had three guys with me.

You had the courage to escape all by yourself.

Can you do something for me?

I'd like you to close your eyes.

Well, why?

Well, when we escaped, the special ops guys had me do this exercise to help

recall the details of the camp that I was at.

To help pinpoint its location. I'd like to do the same thing with you.

Okay, so just relax.

Think about the very first step you took outside.

Not just...

what you saw but smell hear touch everything matters

is there a breeze maybe some trade winds

no uh there was a smell

almost like mint or pine eucalyptus

okay so you went through the woods you smelled eucalyptus

What else?

There was this plant with a weird seed.

Weird how?

Big. Like the size of a cell phone, almost.

Sounds like an uhi-uhi tree.

Also known as mesoneuron kabaiense.

Yeah, that's it.

Uhi-uhi. I've never heard of it. It's almost extinct in the wild. It's very

rare. Where does it grow?

On Oahu.

Only the Leeward side.

Leeward.

What?

HPD focused their search on the east, which is where they thought Amanda came

from, but if that flower only grows on the Leeward side, she didn't come from

the east. She came from the west.

They've got a key in the wrong place.

I've swept the northeast quadrant.

No signs of any structure, but there's heavy tree cover.

Monkey pod trees everywhere.

I'm going to head south.

Roger that.

Northeast quadrant swept. Moving south.

What do you think?

Anything look familiar?

No.

Nothing. Be patient.

Oh, a little tense.

You know what I think you need? I think you should do more yoga.

Maybe dog face bows.

That's not a pose. Yeah, it is. I'm pretty sure it is. I'll ask Higgins to

show you. She loves watching people suffer. Lucky me.

I haven't had to hump it like this since we fled the Korangal.

The Korangal Valley, where you're imprisoned.

I can't imagine what that was like.

Yeah, good times.

Great memories.

I'm glad you had each other, at least.

Well, not always. When we were there, they liked to put Thomas in solitary

confinement for long stretches.

When he was there, we didn't know if he was dead or alive.

A frisky rabbit pose, and I just threw up pose. Gross.

Yo Orville, I may have some... Thomas!

What do you see?

I got an odd patch of dark green about six foot south of your position.

Amanda said the place was cement, right?

Cement holds moisture. It can cause the plants around it to grow more lush.

Alright, send the coordinates.

Look must be from World War two

I'm

gonna look around Thomas

This is it.

Magnum!

I think I found something.

Looks like ATV tracks.

You think they belong to the kidnapper?

Would they be here after six weeks?

Well, this part of the island hasn't seen much rain in the last few weeks, so

it's certainly possible.

What was that?

Flank him! Yeah.

Nice tackle.

Thanks.

Shall we?

Start processing.

Yes, sir.

You didn't question him, did you?

Well, we had a lot of time to kill.

You can be mad at me later.

Carter Ning, this is Detective Katsumoto.

Carter's been staying in this bunker for the past several months. He's homeless.

He said the only reason why he ran is because he thought we were cops and he's

got this possession charge hanging over him.

I'm going to ask once.

You kidnapped this girl?

No. You didn't even look at it? No, no way. I've never seen her before.

Carter, tell him what you told us.

Okay. Sure.

Which part?

About what happened here six weeks ago, genius.

Right. Yeah.

Okay.

This... Tree hugger eco dude showed.

Told me he was conducting some wildlife survey.

Gave me 500 cash to take off for a week. Can you describe this tree hugger eco

dude? Totally.

Howly. Kind of regular height, regular hair.

You just described him. Give me specifics.

I was looking at the money, brah.

Pin him down on the day this happened. It was the day before Amanda was taken.

Plus, the guy was driving an ATV, right?

Yeah.

A quad.

Like, brand new.

Look, if what he's seen is true, it had to be Amanda's kidnapper. He was out

here setting up the prison.

The tracks are down there. If your lab can identify the model, well, maybe you

could trace them.

Maybe.

There's only about a dozen sellers on the island, even fewer that rent mostly

to tourists.

We'd have to contact all of them directly.

TC can help with the tour places. They always refer business to him and vice

versa.

Can I talk to you for a second?

I'm thinking he's telling the truth. I'm inclined to agree, but we need

confirmation.

Let's get it.

I didn't see much, but the man who took me was white.

Older.

Amanda, hi.

Detective Katsumoto, you remember me?

I'm Amanda.

You okay?

I'm sorry, is something the matter?

What's wrong, sweetheart?

It's your badge.

My badge?

Amanda, was the man who took you a cop?

No wonder she wouldn't talk.

She was afraid of us. The badge could have been a fake. Yeah, but what if it

wasn't? Until we know for sure that a cop wasn't involved, we have to keep

everything quiet.

The bunker, the ATV, all of it. How are you going to contain this? What about

CSU? I have people I trust.

They'll process the bunker and report their findings only to me.

Okay. All right. If I find out anything, I'll loop you in.

Same. Hey, Magnum.

Tell her I'm sorry.

I thought I was getting better.

I'm just so damn tired of being afraid all the time.

You know, my father once said that being brave

doesn't mean not being scared. It just means you've decided there's something

more important than your fear.

Like what?

When I was

Held captive, I wasn't exactly a model prisoner.

Tried to steal a radio, try to steal a gun.

So the guards, they threw me in the hole. It was dark and lonely, and I felt

like any day could be my last.

I was scared.

You were.

Yeah.

For all I knew, my friends could have been... were softer than me so i decided

that those guys were more important than my fear if i could just

survive i could help them escape

and we did look

amanda you're scared i understand that but you're also brave

not a lot of people could have done what you did

Not many people can handle what you're going through right now.

You should know that.

I'm sorry, I gotta take this.

TC, what do you got?

What TC had was a lead.

Turns out a handful of ATVs were rented out for a period of six or more days

around the time Amanda was kidnapped.

Lucky for us, the people who rented them all out had to give local addresses.

Okay, this one is owned by a property management company. They do short-term

leases of six-week minimum.

You're good about this one, Higgins. Good vibes.

Yeah, you said that about the last three, you realize.

Let me explain something to you about following leads. Oh, you're going to

mansplain something.

How wonderful for you. No, I'm going to PI-splain something to you. The thing

about following leads is most of them don't pan out, right? So you've got to

be optimistic. Otherwise, you're going to be miserable in this job.

Looks like we're going to have to let ourselves in.

We're wasting valuable time.

If you want to give it a shot, be my guest.

Sure.

Babe?

See, the problem with these short-term lease companies is that they tend to

lubricate the locks, which makes the pins really slippery, and it makes it

really hard to... You were saying something?

You don't have to enjoy it so much, okay?

Sure I do.

I think this is the place.

Surveillance photos of the Sacco's.

It's a map of their neighborhood.

Alan Amari's daily schedule.

The whole family's under a microscope. Why?

I don't know, but these pictures were taken yesterday.

They're still being watched.

I have to contact Ellie and Mary right away because whatever this abduction was

about, it's not over.

I don't understand.

Why did he take my mom? We don't know why. Where's my dad? I want my dad right

now. He's in Paul City, okay?

Rick and TC have taken a helicopter to get him, so he'll be home really soon.

Don't worry.

Amanda, listen to me.

We're going to find your mom.

We're going to find her and bring her home, okay?

Anything?

Maybe.

Amanda, I'm sorry. I have to ask you.

Does this man look familiar?

Kumu, would you mind?

Come on, honey. Let's go into the main house.

It's okay. I'll come see you.

Mr. Magnum?

We're gonna find your mom.

I promise.

You should know better than to make that kind of promise.

Right now, that girl needs hope.

Who's the guy?

Nicholas Warner.

CSU found one of his prints in the bunker.

Several violent felonies in New York. He arrived on the island six weeks ago with

a guy named Benjamin Keeble.

So there's two kidnappers?

First Amanda gets taken, and now her mom.

I mean, what the bloody hell is going on? What do they want with this family?

I don't know.

But a neighbor saw a gray van outside their house around the time Mario was

grabbed. I'm hoping with this ID we can track it. We want to help.

I can't have you involved. But we're already involved. Now that we know these

guys aren't HPD, you need to stand down.

I'm also going to need that laptop you found.

What laptop?

Come on, really? The one you found at the rental house with the surveillance

photos.

Look, you wouldn't even have that idea were it not for us.

All right.

I'll allow you to go over the laptop.

But you tell me everything you find.

Do.

You won't regret this. I already do.

Hello? Hello?

Alan! Oh my God, where are you?

We have your wife, Mr. Sacco.

You want to see her again, you'll do exactly what we tell you. Do you

understand?

Got a problem.

Ricketts, he just called. Alan Sacco didn't show, and now he's not answering

his phone.

Phone? Yeah. Could you ping us, Al?

Yeah.

He's in his office downtown.

His wife's just been abducted. Why hasn't he gone back to work?

First his daughter, now his wife.

Maybe someone's trying to get to Alan. Trying to use his family as leverage to

try to get him to do something.

He's an IT consultant. Get him to do what?

I don't know, but we should get over there. If he's in contact with the

kidnappers, that could help us find him.

Hello?

Go to the 14th floor.

14. All right.

This is interesting.

What's that?

Amanda's kidnappers were tapping into the surveillance cameras in Alan's work

building.

Fortunately, this stream is still live.

Any sign of Alan?

Yeah, got him. He's on the 14th floor. He's on the phone. He looks nervous.

He's got to be on with the kidnappers. Something is definitely going down.

Perfect. We lost visual.

Find the janitor's closet. The door's unlocked.

Go inside.

You have him yet?

No, but I think I might know what this is about. I've just found extensive

intel on Andrew Gore in here, his schedules and the like.

Who? He's the U.S. attorney for Hawaii.

He's been building a major case against the Chinese triad here in Honolulu.

What's that got to do with Alan?

For the past few months, Gore has been traveling around, interviewing witnesses

in different cities, right? But when he's here in Honolulu, he works out of

an office in Allen's building.

The one constant, however, is his security detail, which is, you know, 24

-7, as you would imagine.

Are you about to tell me that this is all potentially tied to a possible hit?

Just a theory, but consider this. According to Gore's schedule here, he

was in the building at the time of Amanda's kidnapping, and he's back there

again today.

I think Amanda's kidnappers took her in order to leverage Alan to help them kill

Gore. But, you know, when Amanda escaped... They had to wait until Gore

got back to try again.

Right. I mean, if someone is making a play for Gore, then they might be

needing Alan to neutralize certain security measures in the building. Or

they plan to use him in a more direct way.

How do you mean? Alan is the building's IT guy, right?

Right. So he has access to any part of the building without raising suspicion.

He can get close to anyone.

You think they're gonna force Alan to kill Gore?

Okay, I'm inside.

On the top shelf is a paint can.

Open it, remove what's inside.

Hey, I don't understand.

This man is in a conference room on the 22nd floor.

Less than 15 minutes from now, he's going to be leaving to get into the

freight elevator.

When he does, you're going to shoot him.

What? No, I can't. Of course you can. You grew up hunting.

You belong to a shooting club.

You know how to handle a gun.

There's a big difference between that and killing a person.

You don't have a choice here, Alan.

Someone is going to die today.

It can either be this man or it can be your wife.

But I don't understand.

Why use a pawn when they can just do it themselves?

Because whoever pulls the trigger is not getting out of that building.

Alan's expendable.

You have to try Katsumoto again. We have to inform HPD. No, we can't call

Katsumoto. Think about it. If Katsumoto finds out that the life of a U.S.

attorney is at risk, it's his duty to alert security.

As soon as the kidnappers realize their plan's shot, they're going to cut their

losses and kill Mari. Okay, we have one option. We have to get to Alan and do

this quietly.

You and me.

Right then.

So what's the play?

Okay.

Go to sleep, buddy.

Go to sleep.

There we go.

For what it's worth, I feel bad about what I just did. But I need this guy's

uniform, and we can't exactly tell him why.

Magnum, look at this.

Alan's on the 22nd floor. Judging by the metal detector and the fact that the

whole floor is crawling with security, I'm going to go ahead and say that's the

one Andrew Gore is on.

We don't have much time.

Let's get on with it, then.

Hurry up and take this clothes off.

Eyes on the monitor.

Oh, really?

Please.

You're thinking about saying something?

Don't. That wouldn't be good for Mari.

It's okay. This thing is super sensitive.

So, hold on. I'll get it.

Katsumoto, we got a lead on the kidnappers.

We tracked the van to a house in Neva Beach. We're going in.

I wanted you to know.

Where are you, anyway?

Thanks. Be safe.

AG is on the move.

You don't have to do this. They're gonna kill her if I don't.

HPD is moving in on the kidnappers as we speak.

This way, Mr. Gold.

It's gonna be okay.

Trust me.

H.E. is approaching the elevator.

You did the right thing.

Matsumoto, what happened?

They drew, Magnum.

They drew on a damn SWAT team.

We had to take them out.

And what about... What about Amanda's mother?

Katsumoto?

Katsumoto. We searched the house. There's no sign of her.

We don't know where she...

I don't get it. She was with them when I spoke to her.

She was right there next to him.

We're going to find her.

Higgins, the man you saw talking to Ellen before... The man with glasses,

yes. I need you to find him right away.

Where is she? Where's who? You know damn well who. Mari Sacco. I don't know what

Mari.

Listen, your friends, they're dead.

HPD is on their way. You have one move here.

Cooperate.

Screw you.

Proceed.

Where is Marisako? Where is she? Okay, okay.

That pretty boy. Gary!

Come on, we're nearly there! Make sure it doesn't collapse!

We're almost there!

One more!

Mama! Mama!

You kept me in the dark about Alan.

I did.

I'm still mad, but let's say we forget about that.

Done.

What, you don't want to hug it out? Not at all.

Thank you, Miss Higgins, Miss Tuela, gentlemen.

You kept your promise.

Thank you, Mr. Magnum.
