Previously on "Clarice"...DNA says you were right.

Hudlin was the man
you saw at Woodhaven

the night Marilyn Felker
killed herself.

Joe Hudlin.

Alastor Pharmaceuticals'
fixer-lawyer.

Hudlin said he was in
the middle of a big acquisition.

Is Alastor Pharmaceuticals
in the middle of a buy-out?

Tyson Conway, whose dad owns
Alastor Pharmaceuticals.

I need your help.

I think your father
is associated

with some
very, very bad people.

Julia Lawson?

You're a senior accountant
at Alastor Pharmaceuticals?

That's right.

Three women are dead.

They were in a clinical trial
for Reprisol.

All three had children
with birth defects.

I'm gonna
turn Catherine in

to the Carney's Point
New Jersey Police.

There have to be
consequences.

They don't want us to run.

They want us to suffer.

This is enough, right?
For the lawyer?

I remember men.

Someone told me once
this is the hardest time.

When you're angry.

What's the freezing point
of nitrogen?

Minus 210 degrees
Celsius.

Freeze the anger.

And suddenly,
I could see.

So let's see.

Multiple crimes.

Different crimes.

But that's just it.

This conspiracy
started in the one mind.

Probably Hudlin's.

We need to profile
this conspiracy

like we'd profile a killer.

One mind.

One monster.

Each murder was crafted to look
like something it wasn't.

He could've sealed these
women in 55 gallon drums

and dumped them in
a landfill somewhere.

They'd be gone forever.
Easy.

But painting them as victims
of a serial killer?

Cutting and biting?

And he left them all
where they would be found.

He wanted to leave
an impression.

A deep one.

Like a scar.

He didn't want them
to have any dignity.

He believed these women
deserved it,

and he wanted everyone
to know it.

They wronged him.
Personally.

Rebecca Clark-Sherman --
her suicide,

that was about shame.

Even if this is corporate,

to protect
the Alastor merger...

somehow, it's really
all about him.

A narcissist, yes,
but more than that.

He didn't have to have
Wellig assassinated

in a room full
of FBI agents.

He wanted to show us
that he could.

Most killers don't like
to show their work.

This guy...

...it's only real
if there's an audience.

Mr. Hagen built this company
from one lab in Rochester.

Alastor is like a child to him.

So let's not dick around.

You all have a packet.

I think we can agree...

we're close to
finalizing the merger.

This is the year he's decided
to set her free.

These are his choices.

These are all signatures.

These are...

Herman. His office.

Last time he wanted

He's not one

So, he got

George said

Hey!
There he is.

The prodigal son returns.

Welcome back.
How are the in-laws?

They're okay.

It was a lot of years of stuff
to move into a small place,

so it's, uh, good I went.

What's up?
Where are we at?

Someone bring him

I'm going to Main Justice.

Time to come clean

Tell her we never dropped

Whoa.
No more Secret Squirrel?

Well, we're there.

We'll need subpoenas,

She's not gonna like

Good to see you.

Looks like I missed some stuff.

Let's see...

Got a copy of your
EEOC complaint.

I'm glad
you're speaking up.

This place needs
a house cleaning.

But mostly,
I just want to see if you had

any, uh, questions.

Questions?

About what happens next.

The Bureau will ask
for a mediator.

Your lawyer will
probably reject that,

and then things
will play out.

Meantime,
I want to make sure

that our relationship
doesn't suffer.

Can we just let the lawyers
talk to the lawyers

and not let it affect
the day-to-day?

You are an asset,
Ardelia.

And we're a team.

Of course.

Good.

Thank you.

Four murders.

Five,
if you include Wellig.

There's more.
More?

I'm exposed.

Good.

Wellig's coroner's report
was forged.

They framed me for it.

A guy named Joseph Hudlin
leveraged the report

and forced us to drop
the River Murders.

He's also dropping pressure
into my custody case.

You're running
a rogue operation.I couldn't tell you until

we had something concrete.Uncool, Paul!

Something
we could move on.

You went behind my back.

This is deep, Ruth.

And it's mean.

And Starling was right
about it from day one.

I'm under fire from
half of Congress.

This is just the nail in
my coffin, and honestly,

your girl may have sunk me here
by turning Catherine in.

Most people
end up in jail.

She's in a psychiatric
care center.

Now, I'd have done
the same thing, but --

If Gant and the other wolves
get ahold of this --

I-I haven't
seen her since --

They won't even
let me talk to her.

I wish Starling would just
do what she was told.

She didn't save
Catherine's life the first time

by being obedient.

You knew that.

I did.

Starling's right,
and it's costing both of us.

You could've called.

You're far too wise to want
the pleasure of my company,

so I'm guessing you're here
to profile me.

Not you.

I want to know
about Joe Hudlin.

You want to profile me when
I'm talking about Joe Hudlin?

You don't like him.

I just want to be able
to see him clearly.

I think I'm the only
one who can.

My father
has a blind spot,

which is counterintuitive

because...
he's so successful.

Well, that could be part of
why he's so successful.

Blind spots are mostly a
compartmentalization mechanism.

Wow.

Impressive.

It's just psych school.

I-I've been doing some
digging since we last spoke.

And I think Hudlin
is a predator.

He nudges my father
into a colder place,

especially
as he's gotten older.

Some of my dad's decisions
just aren't him.

This sale is gonna
break Dad's heart.

He just doesn't
know it yet.

If he were
entirely himself,

I don't think he would jettison
something he loved.

I understand.

Do you?

Well, I mean, my father was
powerful in his own way.

He was a lawman.

He kept me close.

I could count on that.

It was a good feeling.

Being close.

It's funny.

What is?

You lost your
father as a girl.

I found mine as an adult.

But still, everything we do,
we do for them.

Well, this has

Awake, and living
in uncertainty.

Hmm.

Yeah.

What nightmares?

Bill?

No.

I keep having these
weird dreams about my father.

They're all...

messed up or something.

You know, we grow up
believing the things

they tell us to believe,
but...

I mean...

what happens if you
find out you've been

building yourself
on a lie?

Hello?

Ruth?

It's Nils Hagen.

Nils.

How long has it been?

Just long enough,
apparently.

I am calling with a...

begging bowl.

You've never begged a day
in your life, Nils.

But you have,
as a hungry Senate candidate.

You were
a very generous donor.

Your team is bringing
attention and scrutiny

to the sale of my company.

I see.

We are at
a delicate point.

Though I am very grateful
for all the support

you've given me
over the years...

Call it off, Ruth.

...I have never
and will never

impede the course
of justice.

Goodbye.

Lila Gumb did not
press charges.

That does not mean
she never will.

And for Catherine,
she had a future

as long as she was
the victim.

Now she is a predator.

I will bend you both
until you break.

Call it off.
