You have a case.

From my days in the Mobile Psych Unit.

I'd like to dig into it.

If it's important to you,
then it's important to me.

You're sure you don't mind?

Of course not.

That's what's so nice
about us finally being

on the same side of things, same agenda.

No subterfuge.

What you want, I want.

And you're okay with my

I am. In fact, I insist.

Idle hands and all that.

But I would like you to look
into something for me.

Of course.

It's about Dembe's... imam.

- Is there something wrong?
- I don't know yet.

That's what I need to find out.

But first, tell me about this

cold case of yours.

They called him the Boneyard Killer.

His first victim was found
just outside Rehoboth Beach

when local police exhumed a body
for autopsy.

What they found was a second
body buried in that same grave.

A young woman
four feet below the surface,

resting just above
a freshly buried coffin...

murdered and hidden

in the last place
anyone would ever look for her.

Since then, three women
have been discovered this way

in graveyards in Virginia
and West Virginia.

He was using the cemeteries as dumpsites.

Anything significant about
the graves that were chosen?

- They were fresh. Easy to dig.
- And the victims?

All young women
with a history of sex work.

ARAM: Okay, this is, uh, terrible,

but sex workers are
like 20 times more likely

to be targeted by serial killers.

True, but none of his victims
were sexually assaulted,

no sign of defensive wounds,

no pre- or postmortem mutilation.

But the way he killed them...

we found dirt in their airways.

They were alive when he buried them.

Alive, yes.

- [CELLPHONE RINGING]
- And unconscious.

Pumped so full of sodium thiopental,

- they'd never wake up.
- PARK: I don't understand.

He drugged them so they'd die
in their sleep?

- Why would he do that?
- He didn't want them to suffer.

LIZ: The case went cold until a week ago,

when flash floods hit Montgomery

and upended a few graves
at Greenfare Cemetery,

including one unidentified body

that wasn't supposed to be there.

Initial forensics suggest she was sedated

and buried alive just like the others.

Has the Bureau reached out to you?

No, and they're not going to.

They asked me to leave the case.

They said my profile wasn't... additive.

- So this is your cold case.
- Yes.

What do you mean they thought
your profile wasn't "additive"?

I don't think he wants to kill.

I think he's mimicking these profiles

in order to hide some other agenda.

What, I don't know,

but I think he finds satisfaction

in something other than the act
of the crime itself.

Whatever his motive,

these bodies were found by chance,

and we can't wait for another.

Talk to the M.E. See what he knows.

Let's hope this newest tragedy
will help you find this guy.

Uh, sir, can I ask for another favor?

Reddington says that counterterrorism

is sniffing around Dembe's imam.

He wants to know what they found.

What were they looking for?

Syrian jihadists.

Some of the congregants may be
involved with Tahrir al-Sham.

But Dembe thinks that's impossible.

I'll make a few calls.

Ilya Koslov is out there somewhere,

and I have no idea where.

Do you know what your mother
wanted from him?

I don't. But she said
her life depended on it.

[DOOR OPENS]

You were right.

I looked at the original case files,

and this does appear to be
the work of the same killer.

I have ID'd her as one Mara Lynne James.

Now, the forensic evidence
on your previous victims

was limited, but this woman...

the cold slowed the growth of bacteria,

so I have a better picture
of what happened.

Suffocation?

With sodium thiopental

to sedate her beforehand.

Soil in the lungs.

Same lack of any defensive wounds.

Was there any evidence of sexual assault?

No, but she was sexually active.

She had a baby.

The degree of scarring
around the incision

suggests she gave birth
no more than a month

before she was killed.

RESSLER: We want you to know

our Child Abduction Response team

and alerted every law enforcement agency

What for?

To find Mara's child.

Mara didn't have a child.

According to the M.E., she gave
birth a month before she passed.

A baby?

Did she have a man in her life?

A man? [SCOFFS]

You do know what she did for a living?

Did she talk about anyone in particular?

Yeah, she talked.
She talked all the time.

None of it was ever true.

Nancy James, if you know something

[SIGHS]

A year ago...

10 months maybe,

she said she met a guy,
[SCOFFS] a big fish.

- Did she tell you his name?
- No.

Just that he had a plan.

A way for her to get out.

COOPER: CTD and MPD will be here in 20.

I can't hold them off any longer.

Did the Bureau do this?

Has my imam been arrested?

CTD says no, but based on their findings,

maybe they should've.

The case file Agent Keen asked for.

Apparently, two members
have been smuggling

shipping containers in and out of Syria.

- For Tahrir al-Sham?
- Unclear.

We don't know what's being
shipped or by whom.

These members in the file.
I've seen them at the services.

- I don't see them as a threat.
- Then where are they?

As soon as you called about the
abduction, we put out a BOLO.

But it appears as if they're long gone.

Along with Imam Asmal.

The Bureau didn't do him any favors

by questioning him here in the mosque.

Made it appear as if he knew
something and might talk.

Can you be sure he didn't know?

If he said he didn't know,
he didn't know.

What was the port of origin?

Latakia, Syria. Why?

Ironically, smuggling on a large scale

is a profitable
yet surprisingly small club.

And ever since civil war
broke out in Syria,

the margins on everything
from weapons to medical supplies

to narcotics to food
going in and out of the country

have been particularly bodacious.

As such, there's plenty of room
for all the players.

ARAM: I think I may have something.

As you may know, genetic material passes

from mother to child during pregnancy,

but what you may not know

is it also happens in reverse.

Fetal cells cross the placenta
and enter the mother's body,

making up as much as 10%
of the free-floating DNA

- in her bloodstream.
- How does that help us?

Well, with the M.E.'s help,

I was able to run the fetal DNA

Ms. James approached our attorneys.

Jonathan had only recently

My husband's career was based on...

[INHALES SHAKILY]

Even now, I live off the book sales.

And sales would dry up if anyone
knew he'd been unfaithful.

Our victims were all mothers.

all have secret settlements?

is that they're secret.

So, what can I do you for?

Mr. Reddington pays for
his wife's angina medication?

Medication, hospital visits.

I get the impression he pays for
whatever the file clerk needs.

What have you found in the settlements?

I'm hoping it's enough
to justify the, shall we say,

unorthodox way in which we obtained them.

The victims we're aware of
all had children out of wedlock

with very wealthy men,

and they all made paternity
claims against the fathers,

which were all settled.

And within weeks of the agreements,

each of the women were murdered.

And the children?

We haven't found a single one.

- So, what have we found?
- Death certificates.

Turns out Jonathan McClaire
wasn't the only father who died

before the mother of his child.
They all did.

So five mothers who died
soon after giving birth,

and five fathers who died
soon after conception.

The men died in at least four states,

all in crazy accidents...

helicopter crash, a pileup on I-80.

Each event was investigated, but cleared.

No foul play. Nothing to connect them.

Nothing except for a name. Nyle Hatcher.

He signed one of their death
certificates in Pennsylvania,

which I thought was pretty odd,

considering he's a mortician in Bethesda.

So I kept digging.

Turns out he ID'd another victim
in Delaware

and notified next of kin
in West Virginia.

COOPER: Doesn't make any sense.

A mortician from Bethesda

dealing with bodies from places
like Delaware and West Virginia.

According to his employment
records, he used to operate

a funeral home outside Rehoboth Beach.

Makes sense.
He had access to the cemetery.

And no one would question why
a mortician was hanging around.

- Did you get an address?
- 452 Elm,

the same as the mortuary
he currently operates...

Sweet Rest Funeral Home.

Keen, Ressler, get going.

Aram, pull a warrant.

When you got the settlements
from Reddington,

did he say anything about Dembe's imam?

He got a lead on the smugglers,

[SIGHING] and I think he's going
to pay them a visit.

I don't suppose it would do
any good to remind him

that's our job.

He knows.

He just doesn't care.

DONNA: Mr. Hatcher's out today.

Not anymore.

Now he only has his office.

[KEYS JINGLING]

If I'm not under arrest, why am I here?

To talk about a man named Nyle Hatcher.

In my line of work, I meet lots of men.

Right, um...

This one runs a funeral home.

And...

he murders women.

Yeah, I know the guy.

Hatcher was in Baltimore yesterday.

The ferry-boat accident.

Sixteen people drowned.

DMORT was deployed
to identify the victims.

The Disaster Mortuary
Operational Response Teams.

When there's a mass-casualty event,

morticians are brought in
to help identify the bodies,

assess cause of death.

The country is divided by region,

and based on where the victims
were found,

Hatcher operates with
Region III, which includes

D.C., Virginia, Delaware,
Pennsylvania, and Maryland.

Which is why a Bethesda
mortician gets access

to rich men at crime scenes
up and down the East Coast.

Well, we know how Hatcher
interacted with the dead men.

But we still have no idea
what part he played... if any...

in the paternity cases
or the deaths of the mothers.

Actually, we do.

KENDRA: He didn't want to hook up.

I thought he did, but when I got there,

he knew everything about me...
family, money problems.

He said he could fix all that.

By getting you pregnant and
suing the father for paternity.

He said no one would get hurt,

that a rich dude
would be a little less rich.

And the baby?

He told me about these safe-haven laws

where you leave babies at fire stations

and they get adopted.

Adopted.

Because the father would already be dead.

Run that by me again.

We found sperm in his office.

There was a thermos, and in it,
uh, there was a sample.

- Sperm from a dead man?
- The rich dead man.

The one Hatcher s-selected
from his DMORT assignment.

Did the men use a-a donor bank?

Is that where he got the samples?

We don't think so.

Then what exactly do you think?

Hatcher inseminated the women

using semen he extracted
from the corpses.

Apparently, sperm is viable
up to 36 hours postmortem.

He extracts the sperm,
impregnates the mother,

who then makes an embarrassing
paternity claim

that's backed up by DNA.

Now, rather than risk a scandal,
the widow hushes it up

with a secret settlement
and no one's the wiser

because dead men tell no tales.

Even about their seed.

What about Kendra Taylor?

Is she pregnant?

You never met Roger Ashby?

No, the hookup was
supposed to be tomorrow.

Is that what Hatcher told you,
it was gonna be a hookup?

He didn't exactly say. Why?

Because Roger Ashby died yesterday

in a ferry-boat accident.

Like I said, all I know

is the hookup was gonna be
tomorrow, and after that,

I was supposed to make a claim
for child support.

Once the settlement was finalized,

Hatcher would take the money,
and you'd end up dead.

That's the last of it.

The money for you and your meal ticket

will be wired to the account
by end of business today.

[BABY COOING]

Her name is Lily.

We're done here.

Hey, um, guys, so, uh...

Kendra says that
she and the target never met.

But that Hatcher told her
she'd be impregnated tomorrow.

By a man who died yesterday.

So what am I missing?

The birds and the bees? [CHUCKLES]

Lemme tell you,
there's a whole new wrinkle.

PARK: I accessed Hatcher's hard drive.

He had a list of the fathers

and how much the widows agreed to pay.

We know all that
from the secret settlements.

You know almost all of it.

There was another name. Abraham Geller.

Wealthy hedge-fund guy.

Died in a plane crash 10 months ago.

Which might mean someone just
gave birth to his child...

and may have signed a settlement offer.

Or her death warrant.

You two, find the lawyer

See what he knows.

Um, the birds and the bees?

♪♪

It wasn't personal.

I needed hosts willing to break the law,

and they did that just by
showing up at my hotel room.

Desperate and broke...

And what... dispensable?

It isn't my fault that nobody
cares when a prostitute dies.

No, people care. Families care.

This was never about killing those women.

Agent Keen, I have spent my life
surrounded by death...

surrounded by the pain
that comes with life's end,

the futility of it all.

It's a lonely existence.

One that I thought money could change.

So I came up with a way to steal money

from people that wouldn't care
that it was missing...

the dead.

I like to think of them as "donors."

But the donors required hosts...

women who, sadly, needed to die
to protect the plan...

which is why I chose women
who needed to be freed

from their otherwise insufferable lives.

Finally, the plan requires a child.

What did you do with the children?

Well, I tell all the mothers

that I plan to give the newborns away.

Some mother don't like that,
and some, like Angela,

even try to keep their babies.

That upset me at first, until I realized

that the money those children
provided me wasn't the solution.

The children were the solution.

What does that mean?

It means I couldn't leave them
at the fire station

like I thought.

Means I needed them.

Means I couldn't let them go,
that they needed me.

Needed you?

Forging the adoption paperwork
wasn't cheap,

but money isn't a problem for me.

I just didn't want any of those
kids to grow up alone...

- [LAUGHS]
- [SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]

HATCHER: ...like me, without a family.

They needed sisters and brothers.

Where are the kids, Nyle?

They're home.

They have all they need.

A loving father.

Unbelievable financial resources.

What's gonna happen to those kids?

What are they gonna say
when they find out what you did?

Oh, don't tell them what I did.

They don't need to know.

They gave me such a precious gift.

I mean, I was dead.

They brought me back to life.

All that matters are those kids' lives.

And with you in prison, they're
gonna be a whole lot better.

Imam Asmal.

I'm telling you I don't know.

Who are they?

Refugees seeking asylum.

Imam Asmal knows nothing of this.

I thought the FBI took him
because they thought he did.

And you have no ties to Tahrir al-Sham.

Me? I'm trying to save them
from Tahrir al-Sham.

The United States has made it
illegal for them to come here.
