Yeah, I'll be right there.

- Kristin, hey.
- Hi.

- How's everything going?
- Fine, thanks.

Come on, it's not fine.

You haven't talked to me
in weeks.

- Yes, I have.
- Text messages don't count.

Are you mad
because I have a girlfriend?

All right, you want to know
why I'm mad?

Because you tried
to hide it from me.

And worse, you put the kids
in the middle,

telling them
to keep secrets from me, Nick.

I mean, what kind of example
is that setting?

It's not like that.
I was gonna tell you.

I just--
- You just?

I don't know, I guess I was
worried you might be jealous.

Okay, Nick, look.

You're the father
of my children.

I will always love you
for that.

But I'm not in love with you
anymore, all right?

Understood.

Maybe I was more worried
about Meredith.

Okay, you know what?

What does that have to do
with me and the kids?

See, you do this.
You twist the conversations.

I'm not twisting anything.

You don't have to tell me
how you're feeling.

You were always reserved,
but ever since

you went undercover
and got in that car accident,

you've been inscrutable
like a vault.

Inscrutable?

Good, well, guess what?
You know what?

You don't have to worry
about it anymore.

I'm not worried.
I just want to talk to you.

Or listen, whatever you need.

Right now I need to go.

Have a good day.

All right,
this is Maldonado's

third escape from prison--
his first here in the States.

What was he doing
in Allenwood?

DEA writted him there

from the supermax in Florida
for interrogations.

His escape
was well-coordinated.

Contained explosion--

enough to clear a cell block,
but not start a riot.

And a hole pre-cut
into a fence.

- Oh, yeah, and a helicopter.
- Clearly,

El Píncho was still running
the Zapotec cartel from prison.

- El Píncho?
- Yeah, his nickname.

When he was coming up,

he impaled a guy with
a broken end of a shovel.

Body stayed like that,
exposed for days.

Way to send a message.

He tortured and killed an
undercover agent in Monterrey.

To us,
he's Estevan Martín Maldonado.

We won't deify him
with his nickname.

His cartel is responsible for

half the coke, heroin, and
fentanyl on the East Coast.

Did you work his cartel
in Miami?

Miami's run
by the Colombians.

Zapotec gives them
a wide berth,

but Maldonado's very much
a disciple of Escobar,

right down
to the exotic animals.

Well, I heard the first time
he was arrested,

they found chunks of stash
lining his cheetah's cage,

but the money was meant
for the cheetahs in case

anything happened to them,
like they were his family.

Family is very important
to him.

He didn't have one growing up.

His mother abandoned him
when he was seven years old.

He bounced around
Catholic orphanages

till the cartel took him in.

So he'd make sure everyone
in the cartel,

right down to the cheetah,
is provided for.

- Money breeds loyalty.
- Yeah.

You know, he had
MexFeds on payroll.

That's how he escaped
the first few times.

Where did he go
when he escaped then?

The Sierra Madre.
It's where his network is.

All along the 700 miles
of the range,

so he makes it there,
we don't see him again.

Well, let's make sure
that doesn't happen.

Now we don't have Ortiz
this week,

so I need everybody to step up,
make him proud.

Please.

He'll be drunk on a beach
at his brother's wedding

by the time we crack this one--
probably take all the credit.

- Is he in California?
- Yeah, where it's 80 degrees.

Jealous.

Sir, can you confirm
the number of dead

in El Píncho's escape?
- Not at this time,

but assume that Maldonado
and his accomplice

are armed
and extremely dangerous.

If you see anything
or suspect anything,

call 911 immediately.

We need your help.

- Agent LaCroix.
- Yeah.

I'm Captain Roland,
head of Tac-Ops Division.

Our search turned up nothing
on foot so far.

Stay on that.
What about the helicopter?

Eye witness places it
heading east.

Same direction as New York.

Check your firearms, please.

Descriptions are consistent
with a Twinstar chopper.

Those have a top speed
of 150 miles per hour.

Max range 450 miles.

Must've been
just under three hours.

That's the bird's max range.
Let's put some eyes in the sky.

Gonna do the best they can
to stay off of radar.

So we're looking for a drop off
area where Maldonado

can access a different type
of transportation--

a clearing or whatever--
where they can either

land the chopper
or at least get

low enough where
it's safe to exit.

We're looking for tire tracks.
We're looking for witnesses.

Scent.
- How y'all doing?

Greg Galson.
DEA Philly Field Office.

You stick with us.

We're gonna need
your expertise.

What do we know
about the guard

who escaped with Maldonado?
- Name's Charlie Simmich.

He never popped up on the radar
as part of the cartel.

On paper, he's the opposite
of El Píncho.

Happily married, steady job.
- The perfect wingman.

Where's the warden?
- She's waiting for you.

You're all coming?
- That's how we roll.

Tell us about the guard
who helped him escape.

Simmich had been
on the job four years.

No disciplinary action.

What kind of access did
the guard have to Maldonado?

Directly?
None.

Simmich was assigned
to the east tower

the whole time
Maldonado's been here.

Thank you.
PD's at Simmich's house.

His wife was found stabbed.
No sign of forced entry.

Preliminary time of death,
early this morning.

He's cutting old ties
to his life here.

Nothing left to play
on his conscience.

Who else had access
to Maldonado?

Well,
he's a supermax transfer,

so we took extra precautions.
Same set of guards.

They're being detained
and interviewed.

I've also called back

all the guards
to help aid in the search.

And the explosion
in the furnace?

Someone brought in the C4?
- It seemed that way, yes.

Any changes
to Maldonado's routine lately?

No, he gets one hour
of exercise a day.

An old TV in his cell.
No access to computers.

No visitors allowed
except for clergy.

- How often?
- Once a week.

Father Ashton did his communion
services this morning.

Is Father Ashton
assigned to the prison?

Yes, but he doesn't
live here.

He's got a parsonage
in Turbotville.

Let's grab his background
and go see him.

I assume you have surveillance
on the cell blocks.

Yes, we're pulling it now.

LaCroix.

They found the helicopter.

They didn't get very far.

Shots fired must've
brought it down.

Yeah, but no signs
of Maldonado or Simmich.

They only found
the pilot's body.

I can try and run facial rec,

but there's not much left
after the impact.

Let's get the dogs
over there.

This crash obviously
wasn't part of the plan.

Bad news for them,
but good news for us.

They'll be forced to improvise.
- So will we.

No tail numbers.
No black box.

All we got right now
is the onboard navigation.

I can hack the onboard
navigation system.

Come on.

Police are on the hunt
for two fugitives at large

after a prison break
earlier this morning.

I mean, we spent

Decorated his hubcaps
for the parade.

What happened to him?
Why would he do this?

Don't open the door

Not even Nance and Stella.
Stay inside.

leading to the capture

of El Píncho and prison guard
Charles Simmich.

Now these men are armed

Katie, go hide now. Go.

Who else is in here?

Watch her.

Charlie, please.

I'm sorry.

Could've been dead
since yesterday.

Want to give me a hand?

I'll send a photo to Jess.

- I'll go get ERT here now.
- Okay.

Kristin, what's happening?

Priest is dead.
One shot to the chest.

He's been here a while.
I just sent you his photo.

Okay.

That's him.
That's Father Ashton.

That's the priest
that works here?

Yes, why?

Well, I wanna show you
something, okay?

I'm gonna rewind this footage.

You see that?

Oh, my God.

What is it? - It's not the same person.

There was a different priest
here this morning.

How would he have gotten in?

Well, he could've killed
Father Ashton

and stolen his credentials.

Yeah, but he'd still need
to get through security check.

Unless, of course,
Simmich got him in.

I need to talk to Danny.

This guy's a ghost.

Yeah, holy ghost.

Hana just got the coordinates

of where the helicopter
was headed.

She and Galson
are headed there now.

It's an airport in Scranton.
Maldonado must have a plane.

Now!

El Píncho, the kingpin
of the Zapotec cartel,

pioneered the use
of long-ranged tunnels

to import drugs
into the United States.

We've had two tips come in.

They were spotted
at the Walmart

between Harrisburg
and Scranton.

Could be stopping
for clothes,

looking to change
their appearance.

Pull down the cameras
from the store

and from the parking lot.

Copy that.

Let's dispatch two teams
there right away.

Think we should consider
a second set

of roadblocks
up around Scranton.

That's a good idea.
Let's do it.

- You Agent LaCroix?
- That's me.

US Marshal Samuels.
We'll take it from here.

Take what from here?

MOU says we have authority
on prison escapes.

Last time I checked,
this was a federal crime,

and you're about
four hours late, my friend.

We'll call DC,
see what they say.

All right,
you go ahead and do that.

We're gonna keep looking
for the fugitives

while you make
your phone calls.

I know the feeling.

Ugh, it's all
just wasting time

when the man who killed
my nephew's out there

roaming around free
in the world right now.

Maldonado killed your nephew?

My nephew OD-ed
on El Píncho's heroin--

heroin, by the way,
that was mainly fentanyl.

What was his name?

Joby.

And he died in a crappy car
in the parking lot of a mall.

He was 20.

- I'm sorry.
- Yeah.

Screw it.
I'm not gonna sit around

and wait for this
to sort itself out.

Besides, they're not even
gonna know I'm gone.

Hey, Jess,
I think I've got something.

I'm gonna head out
for a minute.

Good, go.
Any lead helps.

I'll go with you.

Before we

you should know
that I'm gonna do

whatever it takes
to get El Píncho,

legit or otherwise.

- Tara McPherson, you?
- Kristin Gaines.

- Can we take your wheels?
- Sure can.

Maldonado's girlfriend
is here.

I'm not Estevan's girlfriend.
I'm his wife.

Really?

Because as far as we know,

he's been married
to the same woman in Mexico.

He calls me his wife.

He loves me.

Tell us who
you're working with.

Who's calling the shots
on the operation?

You know,
you'd be doing yourself a favor

by talking to us.

You gave up a lot today
to be there with your husband.

- He's the love of my life.
- Oh, really?

Not your child?

- I don't have any children.
- Boy or girl?

I don't know what
you're talking about.

You're lactating.

My wife has the same stains
on half her shirts right now.

Our son is two months old.

How old's your child?

Estevan Maldonado
has been in since 2019.

There's no way
your child is his.

There's no baby gear
on that plane and no baby.

So what that tells me is,

you're willing
to leave your child behind

to be with your husband.

If you tell us
who you're working with,

we can make it possible for you
to see your child again.

You're a new mom.

I know you want that
more than anything.

I can't.

Are you really that afraid

walk away from your own
flesh and blood?

- She's obviously terrified.
- And I don't think

Pilot's not speaking either.

The MexFeds have him

It's an honor
to fly the boss back home.

Did we get any information

off Emiliana's
or the pilot's phone?

Nothing.

Okay, we need to figure out

who's in charge
of this operation.

Not Emiliana. Not the pilot.

Well, someone's obviously

improvising with
Maldonado and Simmich.

What about the fake priest?

We have his DNA,
but it's not in our system.

Let's check the tip lines,

see if there's anything
credible coming through.

Okay, sure.

The one advantage
that we have is that

Simmich and Maldonado
don't know

that their plane
has been compromised.

I don't know
if we can count on that.

Look.

Local authorities
remain on high alert,

and the FBI
intercepted a plane

sources say
was bound for Mexico

minutes before it took off.

Please continue to be
aware of your surroundings,

and if you see
anything suspicious--

Maldonado and Simmich
are real time with us now.

They know exactly what we know.

All right, what do we know
about these two guys?

I'm just surprised
they're still together.

Simmich definitely
seems like a liability.

But Simmich proved
his usefulness.

That's how they got
to the Langtry house.

Eh.

I'm not sure
what the arrangement is

between these two.

I don't understand
their relationship.

What did you do before
you became a marshal?

Uh, I helped my dad mostly.

He was a biologist--
a researcher.

He actually studied snakes
in Costa Rica.

- A snake researcher?
- Right.

Worm snakes.

It actually
perfectly prepared me

for a career
in law enforcement.

Well...

You trust people?

Uh, you have to, you know?

On this job--
especially out in the field.

Well, we're out on the field.
You trust me, Kris?

Kris?
We're at Kris now?

'Cause I think I trust you.

It's just you feel
a bit holed up inside.

Like you've spent a lot of time
out there on your own.

Well, I, um, did a lot
of undercover work

in Miami
before I came out here.

Something went sideways
on you, didn't it?

I had to be extracted.

- Did you get hurt?
- No.

- But you feel like a failure?
- I'll put it this way.

It was an abrupt end
to years of work,

and it resulted in no arrests.

So the people are still out
there that I was investigating.

You ever think about
going after 'em?

All the time.

Okay.
Thank you.

Simmich is dead.

The silver Nissan Rogue
from the Langtry house

was found at
a Lucy Allans' place.

Simmich was found
next to the body.

She'd been sexually assaulted.
- It's a risky move,

taking the time to do that
on the run.

Did he change up the cars?
- Yeah.

She drove
a 2008 blue Honda Fit.

I'll put a BOLO out.

Maldonado's still gonna
try to get to Mexico.

You don't think he'll head
north to Canada, do you?

That's Sinaloa, not Zapotec.

Not a lot of resources
for him up there.

He'll probably just follow
the drug lords he knows

where the infrastructure
already exists.

Can you lay out
the supply chains for us?

Yeah.

It starts with the tunnels.

Zapotec moves drugs from Mexico
into the States underground.

Drugs land,

then they're bricked into semis
that then head up the seaboard.

Semis lay over at rest stops

outside of Philadelphia
and Manhattan.

The drugs are transferred
into smaller cars

then taken to safe houses
where the drugs

are broken down
and then distributed.

But the nitty gritty
of these supply chains,

I mean, what's happening
when and where,

that's not upper management.

So Maldonado won't know how
to get to the supply chains.

On his own? Nah.

And the fake priest
that gave Maldonado communion?

Is unknown quantity.
I've never seen him before.

He could've been
pulled in to this job

as a one off by the cartel.

May not even have communication
with Maldonado.

Well, let's say that's the
case, Maldonado's on his own.

What does he do?
Where does he go?

- Emiliana has a brother.
- I have him here.

He has a sheet
at least a mile long.

Gabriel Fererya.

Petty theft,
indecent exposure,

two arrests
for sexual assault--

a real model citizen.

Well, maybe Emiliana's child
is with him,

and that's why
she keeps on denying it.

Where do you go
when you're on your own?

You go where you know.

So if Maldonado
knows this guy...

He could be headed to him
for help.

I say we find him and start
radius searches from there.

Easier said than done.

I mean, I don't have
any last knowns for him.

Well, keep digging.

Not all these people
can be ghosts.

You know,
if you ever wanna bug out

and go hunt down
the people you were after,

And a month later, I was home.

Why didn't you tell me?

Because I didn't want it to
exist in the space between us.

I know that's really hard
for you to understand, but...

When you're on this job,

it's like home is the escape,
right?

It's the only place
where you can just...

put it all away.

We could've talked about it.

I didn't want to talk.

I just wanted to keep it...

inside.

Look, Nick,
I could've died today,

and I made myself feel...

nothing.

Like nothing.

Just feeling nothing
is how I survived the boat,

but feeling nothing is...

Is keeping me broken,
and I'm tired.

I'm so tired.

What do you need from me?

You're already doing it.

You are.
Just be their father.

Um...

You know, you keep asking me
how I'm feeling.

You wanna know the answer?

Yeah.

I feel free, Nick.

Like I'm finally free.
