Previously on Without A Trace...

Look, Jack, I hate

to ask this, but I need a favor.

Sure. I´ll make some calls.

VIVIAN: Chet Collins is a contractor

from Rockaway who liked nothing more

than to take his kids camping.

On one of those trips his son Sean disappeared

in the middle of the night from his tent

and that was five years ago.

You told me you would never give up till we found him.

I just don´t want you to go through it again.

I don´t think you should give up.

Sometimes I wish I could.

I´m scared that I might not be able to hang on.

You can hang on to me.

CHET: Here we go, Sean; right next to Daddy.

JACK: A July weekend in the Catskills.

Sean was only two,

but Chet wanted to start him early.

He loved the mountains.

Stay put, mister.

I´m going to go see what Mom and Kelly are doing, okay?

And then I´m going to get...

( laughing )

Okay?

( loud kiss )

I´ll be right back, okay?

His wife, Helen, was in another tent with their daughter Kelly.

Okay, I´m coming back.

All right. Okay.

Don´t you go anywhere.

Okay?

Okay.

Just after 9:00 Chet walked over to see them 12 yards away,

just to say good night.

When he got back to the tent, the boy was gone... vanished.

Six years, and you never caught a break.

No, not even close.

When was the last time you talked to Chet?

Uh, couple of months ago.

Apparently he missed visitation with his daughter.

He wife couldn´t reach him;

she got nervous and so she called it in.

( garbled radio transmissions )

Chet told me he´d moved to a smaller place, but...

Well, there´s no sign of forced entry.

Nothing obvious missing other than his car.

You check his work?

Yeah, he, uh... was subcontracting with a builder

out in Huntington.

They say he was getting behind, missing appointments.

They laid him off.

That was last week.

Right.

Jack, I think you should come take a look at this.

This is the photo he always carried with him.

You were pretty close with this guy, huh?

What?

Okay, Mr. Collins has got financial troubles-- big ones.

He´s about 25 grand in the hole.

And in the last few months,

they canceled his credit cards, cable and cell phone.

SAMANTHA: We also found

pawnshop receipts in his apartment.

Television, stereo... he was dumping for cash.

Three months ago he deposited 15,000

in checking, but he didn´t try

to pay down any of his debt.

He flew right through it.

On what?

Checking activity doesn´t account for the spending.

There´s a lot

of ATM withdrawals; look at that.

Yeah... or could be drugs.

It´s not drugs.

It´s happened to better men than Chet, Jack.

Men who´ve had it a lot easier.

Not this man. Move on.

Jack, I just spoke to ATF.

Chet Collins bought a gun--

a nine millimeter

at a sporting goods store in Hackensack

eight days ago.

SAMANTHA: Jack, listen to me.

He´s lost his job, he´s deep in debt,

he left his wedding ring and the picture.

He didn´t kill himself.

If nothing else, he´s a fighter.

DANNY: Maybe he thinks he found something out

about Sean and he´s going to take

a crack at this vigilante style.

VIVIAN: Not likely.

Every time he gets a lead, he brings it to us, we run it down.

Danny, I want you to follow the money.

Samantha and Martin,

go check out his work.

Vivian, you and I

will talk to his wife.

MARTIN: So, how´d it go down?

The truth is, it´s been building for weeks.

We got a kitchen remodel out in Water Mill, simple.

My guys are telling me that Chet´s screwing up--

not just minor code stuff,

ungrounded electrical next to gas connections.

It´s a very serious fire hazard.

So, I tell him to get on it.

Chet says, "fine." A week later

we´re ready to call for inspection,

close the wall up, nothing´s been changed.

I can´t have that.

Chet, I made my decision.

No, man, don´t.

I´m sorry, Chet.

You know I wanted this to work out.

Fred, don´t do this to me.

Chet, please, we go back ten years.

I know how hard it is for you, but this isn´t working out.

You don´t understand, man.

I got to keep working.

You know, I need the money.

I´m sorry.

Look, I´ll give you a week to give you some time.

You can look around. Okay?

Look, Chet, money...

Dislocated it pretty good.

Anybody but Chet, I´m suing.

Had you known him to be violent in the past?

No, not at all, which is why it´s so weird

the way he´s been acting.

How´s that?

On edge... popping off without much provocation.

A couple of run-ins with the other guys.

Do you think drugs or alcohol

had anything to do with it?

Not that I´ve seen.

Do you know why he needed the money?

No. But he sounded pretty desperate.

I just hope he didn´t go and do something stupid.

I feel so odd having you back here.

Yeah, I wish it was under better circumstances.

I´m so worried about Chet.

Mrs. Collins...

it would help if you could tell us

about the last time you saw him.

Uh, it was last weekend.

Chet had taken Kelly to a dance concert in the city.

They got back early, and...

Thanks, Dad, that was nice.

I mean it.

Oh, I had a good time, too.

Oh, uh, excuse me.

Can I help you?

No. I... mean...

HELEN: Chet...

this is Alex Sanborn.

Chet Collins.

Nice to meet you.

Good night, Helen.

Good night.

Hey...

Why don´t you go on inside.

I´ll see you in a second.

I was going to tell you.

Yeah, you were going to tell me

but I happened to bring Kelly home early

and you didn´t have to.

I was trying to find a good time.

Don´t patronize me, Helen.

Is it serious?

Chet...

Oh...

Is it serious?

As a matter of fact, it is.

Okay...

Okay, you´re moving on.

I´m happy for you.

Just because I´m not willing

to give up on our son

How dare you say that to me! doesn´t mean I can expect the same from you!

He´s my son, too. If you can´t bother about it anymore!

Shut up! Shut up! Just shut up!

I can´t take this anymore.

( sighs )

Look, I´m sorry you had find out this way.

But I can´t go on like this and neither can Kelly.

And if you´re not ready, that´s okay.

I understand.

It doesn´t mean that I don´t love Sean.

I think of him every single day,

because I do and I always will.

Can you understand that?

Chet?

You go to hell.

HELEN: With all we´d been through...

he´d never spoken to me that way before.

Do you think your husband

would do anything to harm himself?

That night there...

There was a look in his eyes that, um...

I hadn´t seen before.

What kind of a look?

Just complete emptiness.

( cell phone rings )

Malone.

Hey, it´s Martin.

So, I think we found out where Chet´s money´s been going.

According to his phone records

he´s been contacting a private investigator

for over two months, now.

Who is it?

Guy´s name is Gary Fisk.

Checked out his background, he´s sounds a bit shady.

So, Sam and I are going to run out there now.

No, no, no, I´ll go.

What´s the address?

Uh, it´s 4804 Harrison Boulevard in Queens.

Okay, thanks.

All right, good luck.

Look, I felt for the guy at first.

I mean, who wouldn´t?

JACK: So, when did Mr. Collins hire you?

About two months ago.

He had a few tips to check out.

Mostly it was general stuff.

You know, police reports, newspapers.

What did you charge?

My normal rate: $300 a day.

That´s for my services.

Lower for my associate.

And how did Mr. Collins pay you?

Well, I only take cash.

And things were okay

for a month or so.

You know, he kept up pretty good.

But then the money started coming in

later and later.

So, I extended myself at first.

You know, like I said, I felt for him.

But after a while... well, he put me in a hole.

So, then, you started withholding information.

Well, that usually works.

You tell them you got something and they come up with the dough.

But Collins just kept hassling me.

I told him, "this ain´t a charity," you know?

And then three days ago,

the guy goes Tarantino on me.

Give it all to me.

All of it!

I´m telling you, it´s nothing.

You said you had stuff.

Where is it?

Look for yourself.

It´s all there.

JACK: So, did you call the police?

No. I got confidential files and stuff.

I´ll bet.

VIVIAN: Was there anything that you gave Chet

that could lead him to believe

that he´d be able to locate his son?

Look, the truth is, I don´t really know what was in there.

Just some clippings the kid found.

I was just trying to get paid.

If I find out you´d been leading him on,

you´re going to be sorry you ever saw me.

What are you talking about, "leading him on"?

It´s a six-year-old case; no leads.

You even talk to guy like that, you´re leading him on.

Okay, here we go.

Sean Collins, six and a half years worth of dead ends.

This is only half of it.

And we´re looking for what?

That´s the fun part.

We don´t know.

Here´s the theory.

We reopen Sean´s original case,

try to find out

where Chet was focusing.

Then if we find out what the PI gave him,

we can get a sense of where he might be headed.

So we follow Chet right into the abyss.

And what? We abandon all other theories?

I mean, we know the guy was depressed.

We know he was acting erratic.

He´s got a gun.

Jack doesn´t think it was suicide.

Come on, Viv. Even his wife said he seemed hopeless.

Jack doesn´t think it´s suicide.

MARTIN: Okay, but if we know

that Chet chose to chase down this, this lead...

Martin, don´t even go there.

Okay, but we have to raise

the question, Vivian.

Okay, if you guys don´t want to work on the case

I think you need to take it up with Jack.

Oh, we´d love to-- it just seems like somebody

doesn´t want to leave his office today.

We´re ready to get going in there.

Okay, just give me a second.

You want to talk about it?

No.

What happened

the last time Chet came in here?

I told you, nothing.

Okay.

Now, tell me the truth.

Vivian, back off.

Did you just tell me to back off?

Yeah, back off.

Jack.

This is not

your personal crusade.

I´ve spent just as much time

on this case as you have,

and whatever happened between you and Chet

is relevant to this investigation.

It is not a private moment.

You need to share it with the rest

of the team, which includes me.

Chet found a picture in an Oklahoma newspaper--

a homeless kid.

He became convinced that it was Sean.

He wanted me to check it out

so I ran it by the locals in Tulsa

but it turned out

to be a dead end

but Chet wouldn´t have any of it.

He wanted me to send a team from here.

I just can´t do it.

A couple of days, man.

I mean, you guys know this case.

I´ve had the locals ID the boy. It´s not Sean.

I´m talking about making sure, that´s all.

Look, I just can´t justify sending a team down there.

Justify! What the hell is that?!

Listen, Chet, I have priorities.

I can´t send agents running after every lead, even if

I think they´re reasonable.

Which you don´t!

No, I do not.

You gave me your word!

That´s enough!

I´m sorry, but Sean´s gone.

He is just gone.

Good-bye, Jack.

JACK: And that was it, that was

the last time I saw him.

It was two months ago.

I think you did the right thing.

He needed to hear that.

Not from me, he didn´t.

You don´t owe him anything.

I think I do.

Chet Collins is out there with a gun

and he could hurt himself or someone else.

Jack, you are not responsible for everything and everybody.

Are you done?

MARTIN: So here´s what

I can piece together.

There was one entrance to the campground,

a ranger station here, but it was unmanned

after 8:00 p.m. and the boy vanished

just after 9:00.

Did all the cars on the campsite check out?

Over and over and over.

We´re just spinning our wheels here, without Jack.

Okay, guys, here we go.

Gary Fisk, the PI, gave us a list

of all the newspaper citations he got online.

All of the articles were found

at Chet´s apartment except one.

This is a listing from the crime page

of a weekly paper in Trenton.

An unidentified man was detained

for trying to kidnap a two-year-old girl.

He tried to lure her from her yard using his dogs.

The cops didn´t have

enough to charge him, so he was released.

Wait a minute.

There was a witness in Sean´s case

who thought he saw a guy with a small dog

hanging around the campground.

There was this theory

that he used a dog to lure Sean.

Nobody else saw the man.

They let it go.

Maybe Chet didn´t let it go.

Maybe he thinks he´s found his guy.

What was the witness´s name?

Here we go-- Trey Cavanaugh.

Park ranger.

I´d only started in the park

three months before it happened.

This is my dream job, you know,

being up here in the mountains.

That sure changed.

So you´re a supervisor now.

Yeah, they got me behind a desk in Liberty.

The place is pretty much the same.

How often did you talk to Mr. Collins?

Uh... about once a year.

He´d go on and ask

if I remembered anything else about the dog guy.

´Course if I had, I´d have called you people right off.

Did he seem satisfied with that?

Yeah. I always got the feeling

he was just sort of going down the list, you know. Um...

till a couple of days ago.

What happened?

Uh, he called up and said he wanted to meet me here

and that he had

a picture of the guy.

His name´s Tyson Dibbs.

He tried to grab a kid in Jersey

using a dog.

I don´t know.

It was six years ago.

Really look, I mean

and try to remember.

It´s hard.

It was dark.

This could be the man who took my son.

I know that, Mr. Collins, and I want to help you.

Well, think.

You were here that night.

Mr. Collins...

...I can´t

be sure.

Just look at the picture.

Try to remember.

His name´s Tyson Dibbs.

Could this be the man you saw?

Sure.

Yeah. I-It could be.

It was like that´s all he wanted to hear.

But you weren´t sure?

No.

I got to honest with you.

When you people couldn´t

find any trace of this guy

I pretty much figured, you know, maybe I never saw him.

You never told that to Mr. Collins, did you?

Oh, no way. I couldn´t.

Mr. Dibbs, FBI!

MARTIN: Vivian.

Here´s what we found on Tyson Dibbs.

You are not gonna believe it.

I got you.

Okay...

Check that room.

Jack.

Better call the coroner´s office.

VIVIAN: Martin ran

Tyson Dibbs´s name through all the indexes.

No record, but he does show up as a witness

in an FBI investigation six years ago.

The Collins case.

Jack, I think Chet found something.

As far as we know, Dibbs is clean.

Divorced 11 years ago.

No kids, no police record.

Okay. Chet goes to see Dibbs.

They fight, right.

Dibbs confesses to taking his son.

Chet loses it and he shoots him.

Or Dibbs doesn´t confess, Chet doesn´t believe him

and shoots him out of frustration.

Chet

would want to find out about Sean first,

so he wouldn´t do anything to anybody

until he had that information.

DANNY: If I´m Dibbs,

and I think I´m gonna die

I´m gonna tell Chet whatever he wants to hear

and whatever that is

Chet´s going to run it down, right?

Just got off the phone with Helen Collins.

Chet called there last night.

If he´s calling home, why isn´t he calling us?

Obviously he´s furious, he´s...

Chet is not calling us because he doesn´t think we´ll help

and that is my mistake.

As you may have noticed,

I´ve been a little preoccupied with it lately

but... I feel what I feel,

and if my attitude has caused

anyone any problems, I apologize, but I think

we should move on.

I think Danny is right.

We should focus on Tyson Dibbs.

Chet probably is

running something down he found out from him.

Vivian, we need to see Helen again.

You happy?

Yeah.

He called Kelly, which, of course,

is understandable, but it just would

have been nice if my daughter had informed me.

Dad told me not to say anything.

It´s okay, Kelly, your father needs our help.

He called last night.

It´s me, honey.

Daddy? Where are you?

The police were here.

Oh, don´t worry-- everything´s fine.

I´ve got some great news about Sean.

Let me get Mom.

No, no, no, no.

You can´t tell anyone we talked.

Not until I bring your brother home.

Dad...

I am so close, honey.

Okay, Dad.

Hey, Kelly, listen.

I know how hard it´s been

but we´ll be a family again

and I´ll try so hard to make it up to you.

I love you, Kelly.

Whatever happens

I love you.

I love you, too, Daddy.

That´s all.

Agent Malone, I know my dad´s done this before--

not run away, I mean, but convince himself of stuff

that wasn´t true.

It´s just... he´s never sounded so sure before.

MARTIN: So the plot thickens.

I got Dibbs´s old phone records.

Day after Sean was taken,

Dibbs made a dozen calls

to a motel outside of Hartford.

The next day, ten more.

Maybe Dibbs wasn´t acting alone.

Maybe he had a partner that he

was supposed to meet at the motel.

Yeah, but the thing is...

not one of these calls lasted more than a minute.

Short calls.

Messages? Maybe he never reached the guy.

The hotel manager

checked out his old registries.

There was one no-show on a reservation

for those days, and here´s

the interesting part-- there was a request for a crib.

Okay, so Dibbs takes Sean.

He´s gonna meet his partner in Hartford,

but the guy never showed.

Who made the reservation?

A guy named Beau Williams.

The credit card he used has been canceled

and there´s no hits on NCIC, so we´re still looking.

Verizon.

Thanks.

All right, Chet´s call to his daughter

came from a pay phone at a truck stop on I-95

just south of New Haven.

Our man´s on his way to Hartford.

Yeah.

Mr. Jansen, we believe

that the man that tried

to abduct your daughter may be involved

in several kidnappings in the last couple of years.

Okay. I don´t know how I can help, but...

Whatever you can tell us

about that day may give us

some insight into how he works.

Okay, um...

There´s a lake at O´Connor Park

and my daughter, Allia, she, she went off

chasing this big mallard

and she was just like 50 feet away from me and she

just darted into the woods.

I ran over there.

I couldn´t find her, and...

that´s when I saw her.

She was crouched over this little dog

on a leash.

And there was no sign of Mr. Dibbs?

No. One of the other fathers

grabbed him while he was trying to get into his Bronco

on this service road that runs behind the lake.

Did you see any sign of a partner?

Uh-uh. No. No, I didn´t see anything.

WOMAN: Chris?

That´s my wife. Yes?

Is everything okay?

Yeah.

SAMANTHA: Mixed race adoptions.

Here´s how it works.

You´re a mixed-race couple.

You want a child that looks like you--

say, African- American-Asian, like Sean.

Right.

You go to an adoption agency, make the request.

The more exotic, the more difficult to find.

If the child can´t be found

in the general adoption pool

the request is farmed out to private brokers.

So the families arrange to kidnap the children?

No, the families have no idea

because it´s all run through legit agencies.

The broker supplies the child,

some shady lawyer draws up the papers

and it all looks aboveboard.

That´s why Chet was going to Hartford.

Dibbs must have told him that

Sean was adopted by a new family there.

But we know that something went wrong

with the adoption because Dibbs´s partner

never showed up at the motel.

Doesn´t mean the adoption

didn´t go through.

So let´s find that lawyer.

Here we are...

the Carters.

Thank you.

He was adorable.

They named him Austin.

February ´97.

Seven months after Sean went missing.

Maybe they held onto him until things

were cooled down.

Unless he took a little side trip to Vietnam.

Yes, this one

came from a service in Vietnam that finds

Amerasian children needing homes.

And you´ve used this service before?

I personally went over there and picked up the boy.

Believe me, it´s a reputable operation.

You said that the couple had been trying for a long time.

Yes. In fact, I remember

they almost had an adoption come through

with another agency earlier that year.

How much earlier?

I don´t remember exactly.

Maybe six, eight months.

They were a day away. They made plans

to receive the child here in Hartford.

The whole thing fell apart.

Do you know where this family is now?

The Carters live in Trumbull.

They saw someone matching Chet´s description

parked outside their house this morning.

( sighs )

Chet must think Austin´s his son.

Yeah, well, he´s not.

Where´s the kid now?

He´s on a school field trip.

( bell rings )

( bell dings )

Chet, stop.

Look, stop. It´s not Sean.

It´s not your son.

Jack, what are you doing here?

It´s not Sean. We checked into it.

It´s not your child.

Why should I listen to you?

Because I´m your friend.

You get out of my way.

I found him. I found him

without you.

Cuff him.

Chet Collins...

you´re under arrest for the murder of Tyson Dibbs.

I´m sorry, Chet.

Let´s go.

I told you I didn´t kill him!

Now you´ve got to let me go.

Do you understand? I found my son.

No, you did not.

You hoped that you found your son.

Now I want you

to tell me what happened with Dibbs.

When I saw the article about the Trenton abduction

I remembered what that guy in the park had said.

I knew Dibbs was it.

I went out there

I found a cop who was willing to talk

and I went to his house.

Tell me! I didn´t hurt him. Oh, God, please.

I just took him from the campsite. What´d you do with him?!

There was supposed to be an adoption,

but I don´t know what happened.

I swear to God! I swear to God!

I was just supposed to grab him

and hand him off.

The other guy was going to take him back to a motel,

set it up with a lawyer. What other guy?!

His name´s Beau Williams.

How do I find him?!

I don´t know.

I will kill you. I got nothing to lose.

Look... look...

after I gave him the boy, I never saw him again.

I never got paid.

I got nothing.

Do not lie to me!

I swear to God

I´m not. I tried to reach him for weeks.

The guy vanished.

Where was he supposed to take Sean?

To some... some family in Trumbull,

I think. Connecticut.

I don´t know anything else.

I swear to God I would tell you

if I did.

If I don´t find my son,

I´m coming back

and I´m going to kill you.

He was alive when I left.

If I killed him, I´d tell you.

If you didn´t kill him

then who did?

I don´t know.

Maybe it was this...

this Williams fellow covering his tracks.

I mean, it sounds like there was other people

involved, Jack.

Where did you go?

I headed right to Trumbull.

I knew the adoption agency wouldn´t tell me anything

so I started going to elementary schools.

Said I was moving to town, had a second-grader,

wondered if they´d give me a tour.

Look, look at me, Jack.

Look at me.

You´re sure that boy´s not Sean?

Yes, I´m sure.

His name is Austin David Jones.

He was born in Vietnam.

He was adopted six months after Sean disappeared.

And I am really sorry.

Yeah, yeah.

We´re not going to give up.

Neither am I.

( softly ): Jack.

Just give me a second.

Just got the ballistics report on Chet´s gun.

It´s not the weapon that killed Tyson Dibbs.

We get that to police, they´ll have to let him go.

In which case...

Just take your time, okay?

Okay.

Okay, I think I found Beau Williams.

This guy was a small-time crook,

couple of outstanding warrants from the ´90s,

nothing on his record involving children.

But get this-- the day after Sean disappeared,

Williams was killed in a car accident.

In Connecticut?

No, Route 80 just outside of Detroit.

Wait, I don´t understand.

All right, what if Williams was double-crossing everyone

and going freelance with Sean?

He takes the handoff from Dibbs in Connecticut,

but instead of meeting the lawyer at the motel,

he drives all night to Detroit, falls asleep at the wheel

and that´s it. Was there a child in the car?

I´m not sure, I´m still waiting for the accident report.

It was a head-on collision.

And if he´s right,

if Sean was in that car, then...

We just don´t know.

But then, if he survived, where is he?

Certainly, Dibbs and Williams can´t tell us.

What about that lawyer--

the one that tried to set Sean up

with the Carters?

Gene Clarkson? Yeah.

He´s into everything.

Not just adoption-- drugs, prostitution.

But no one has ever been able

to make anything stick.

Okay.

Let´s say that Sean has survived the accident.

Mm-hmm.

Maybe Clarkson doesn´t want to let go

of his investment so easily.

Maybe he goes after him.

Do you think he killed Tyson Dibbs?

Probably.

My guess is, is that Dibbs called Clarkson

as soon as Chet left...

not realizing he signed his own death warrant.

We got to bust this guy.

What are you thinking?

Clarkson knows that Chet´s on his tail.

Maybe we can get Chet to make a phone call

offering him 20 grand for some information on Sean.

Maybe he meets him

in a crowded area.

Maybe he wears a wire.

Maybe we get some information on Dibbs or Sean.

Martin´s waiting for the accident report.

I´ve got to get a court order on the wire, so...

why don´t you go home and get some sleep. Okay.

Long day.

Yep.

And it goes on.

Remember, no heroics

okay?

And when we give you the signal

get out of there.

I mean, walk away.

I got it. No problem.

Sean was in the car.

He survived the accident.

He was taken to a city hospital in Detroit,

but then we lose track of him.

I don´t understand.

Is he alive?

We´re not really sure.

How could this not get reported?

Williams was traveling with Sean

with false adoption papers.

We´re checking all the medical records of the period,

but they´re a mess.

Listen to me.

We´re going to find Sean.

All right, let´s do this.

Mr. Collins.

Mr. Clarkson, I´d like you to keep your hands

out of your pockets, if you don´t mind.

I know you killed Tyson Dibbs.

I don´t know what you´re talking about.

I don´t care.

I just want my son back.

And you think I can help?

I´m going to reach into my pocket

for an envelope, okay?

$21,700-- everything I´ve got in the world.

Just tell me where Sean is.

As I said to you on the phone,

I´ll look into it for you.

That´s not good enough.

You want my money,

you tell me where my son is right now.

Everybody hold.

I know you hired Tyson Dibbs and Bo Williams.

I know Williams took Sean to Detroit.

Where is he?

I´m afraid we won´t be doing business, Mr. Collins.

It´s blown,

Danny, wave him off.

Have a nice day.

Just tell me.

Why Sean?!

I wouldn´t know.

Tell me, you son of a bitch!

Okay, let´s get in there.

Where´s my boy?!

I´ll kill you! Where´s Sean?!

Where´s Sean Where is he?!

Where´s my son?! What´d you do with him?!

Where is he?! Where is he?!

Get him off!

Come on! Come on! Come on!

( groans )

Come on! Come on!

What do we got here, huh?

That´s perfect.

I´ll tell you what I´m going to do.

I´m going to run a test on that gun.

My guess is there will be a forensics match

to the gun that killed Tyson Dibbs

and even if it´s not

those hands that were just around your neck

they´re going to be there again, I promise you.

And next time we´re not going to be here to stop him.

Where´s the boy?

Children´s Services in Detroit.

Foster care, I think.

Get him out of here.

It´s all right, John.

It´s okay, it´s okay.

Come on, come on, come on, come on.

Hey.

I´m your...

I´m Chet.

What´s your name?

Garrett.

It´s nice to meet you, Garrett.

Hi.

Hi.

You are a brave boy.

Do you mind if I give you a little hug?

I´m so happy for you, Mr. Collins

Thank you, Agent Johnson.

Thank you. Thank you.

Hey, uh...

I wanted to...

I wanted to give you this.

St. Jude.

Yeah.

I got it from a priest about a year ago.

I don´t know if the man gave it to me

because he thought I was a lost

or because Sean was lost.

Either way...

I don´t need it anymore.

But maybe, I thought, you know, maybe you could use it.

Yeah.

Thanks.

You take care, my friend.

Yeah, you, too.
