- Man, look.

Oh my gosh.
(phone vibrating)

Speak of the fucking devil.

Look, I gotta go.

I can't have him coming
downstairs looking for me.

- So you want me to drop you off?

- So he can kill us both?

I'll walk.

- Well, how about you
get a hotel this weekend?

- Why? Are you trying to cut him?

- And some more stuff.

Come on, it'd be fun.

- I don't know, we'll see.

But in the meantime, I gotta get up there

'cause you already know if he catches me,

it's a whole fuck rap.

- All right man.

So you just gonna hit

Females ain't shit, come on.

Morale is low as citizens mourn,

what might be the death

of Tamara Wilson.

I'm here with two entrepreneurs.

How is this affecting your business?

- It's affecting us a lot Daniela.

We put a lot of time and effort

into building our business and brand.

It used to be rewarding,

but now it's just a curse.

I mean, Tammy was a brilliant woman

with so much talent.

I just think it's messed up and disgusting

how people out here treating black women.

- Yeah, it's really fucked up

that someone's targeting women at all.

- Back to you.

- The FBI witness a
horrific day in Houston,

as over seven bodies have been found

in an abandoned field
behind a wooded area.

Officials of the FBI believe these remains

belong to the missing women in Houston.

Two months ago,

the body of Houston's
detective Lance Carter daughter

was found in a wooded
area similar to this one.

(Detecter Carter sobbing)

I'm Melissa Nguyen reporting

- Seven mother fucking bodies.

Seven mother fucking bodies.

But not just any body.

Black women.

Williams said that you wanted a shot.

Make it personal.

You got your shot.

(gravel crunching)

- Fuck.

- Just confirmed the skeleton remains

we found in (indistinct)

woman between the ages of 18 and 40.

- Damn.

I was hoping we was gonna find some light

at the end of this tunnel.

- Either way,

we still gotta tell somebody the bad news.

- Get forensics to run
DNA on all the remains,

get them ID'd and notify the families.

- Okay, I'll make sure to
take care of that right away.

(gravel crunching)

I need you to run DNA on all the victims

and put a rush on it.

- We gonna catch 'em?

- We always do.

But how many people are
in danger until then?

(indistinct radio chatter)

You know what I don't understand,

why does he target
professional black women?

- You know,

that's what I've been wrestling with

since I first heard about this thing.

Maybe that asshole lost his job

and a woman took his position.

Now he's taking his
frustration out on them.

- You know that could be,

but this isn't like in our normal cases.

You know usually we
don't catch the suspect

until they slip up.

But in this case, we actually
have a prime suspect.

Just not enough evidence to hold him.

- You're running point on this thing.

what you wanna to do?

- Let's hand pick a team

and get started the first
thing tomorrow morning.

- I can do that.

Where you wanna start?

- From the beginning.

(suspenseful music)

(background chatter)

- Well fellas,

look like our lead hit a dead end.

- Where would he be at?

- Man, I don't know where Maxwell will be.

- $100, he's still in Atlanta.

- California?

- Nah, California's too far.

(pen clicking)
(pen clattering)

- We gotta find this mother fucker man.

(background chatter)

(Agent Williams clearing throat)

- Agent Jefferson.

You know you're looking
pretty comfortable.

I know you're new to the FBI,

but this is not how we operate.

Maxwell St. Claire last
seen out in Houston, Texas,

but there's no evidence
that he's still around.

- There's a missing girl in Atlanta,

he could be there.

- He most definitely, probably was.

But guys,

we can't keep playing catch up.

This mother fucker has
dead bodies popping up

all over the country.

- Okay.

- We have to stop him before
he makes his next move.

- I mean, who's to say
he's not an Atlanta still?

I mean there's a huge pool of women

that fit his target's profile.

- That's true,

but we also have a team out in Georgia.

This guy's smart,

and his moves are starting
to become a pattern.

- Yeah.

- And y'all all know

that the more we have on him,

the better chance that
we have to catch him.

So why we still in Houston?

- Because for all we know
this is where it started,

and we're starting from the beginning.

- Come on man.

- We're going to re-interview

everyone that we've already interviewed.

Maybe we can come up with more evidence.

- What about his parents?

Have anybody made any contact with them?

- We haven't been able to
find a birth certificate

on any Maxwell St. Claire.

- Not any?

- Not any.

The only Maxwell St. Claire we know

died from Covid 18 months ago.

- [Man 2] Hey Cook, you got a minute?

- And there's no evidence

if he have children or not.

The fingerprints that we found
in the home was a dead end.

This guy doesn't even have a record.

- Guys, we all know
that this is a hard one.

- Yeah.

- So let's just go back

and let's see if we missed anything.

- Copy that.

- [All In Unison] Copy.

- [Christine] Max.

(upbeat background music)

- You shouldn't be
anywhere near me right now.

- As soon as you tell
me the truth, I'm done.

Max, you owe me this.

You have no idea what I've been through.

(suspenseful music)

(suspenseful music)

(suspenseful music)

(suspenseful music)

(suspenseful music)

(upbeat background music)

So you gonna tell me the truth?

- The truth?

Whose truth are you looking for?

- You tell me, say something.

- Look, I can tell you that it wasn't me.

I can say that I was framed,

that I don't know anything
about these females.

- Why Max?

- Why does that matter?

Why does that matter?

It's not like the family of those girls

cared about what I am or
cared about what I do.

They don't know what I've been through.

- I mean that may be true.

But I can tell you,

I wanna know for me.

You don't know what it's like
to be in love with someone

the world sees as a monster.

I can't explain it.

I'm ashamed and angry,

but I can't believe it's true.

Even when I hear it come outta your mouth.

(upbeat background music)

- Well you should,

because I'm a terrible person.

You need to get back on that plane.

- Max, you weren't terrible to me.

I mean you knew

I knew what you did.

But you didn't harm me.

There's some good in you Max.

- Christine, I can't control it.

You know that night that I stared at you,

I knew that you knew.

I should've killed you.

I needed to kill you.

But I just couldn't.

- 'Cause you wanna change.

- No, because you're different.

And you're not like her.

- Her?

- Talking about your ex-wife?

Max?

- You think my wife made me do this?

- I don't know.

I know she hurts you.

I know it really had an effect on you.

- She didn't do anything

but make me realize how
fucked up my childhood was.

- So if she didn't do
this to you, who did?

- The only person that can
mean something to a child.

My mother.

(Loretta moaning)

(Lamont inhaling)

(Lamont sighing)

- Fuck.

(Lamont chuckling)

I'm sorry, okay?

Listen, we can go again.

- Why would I even waste my time?

I don't even know what
I was expecting, Lamont.

But you always start off good,

but you a horrible finisher.

- Come on, come on baby.

Look, don't be like that.

Look here man, I'm sorry,

let's just try again.

- Stop, stop, stop,

I gotta go to work.

I gotta...

You need to watch my son.

That's the least you can do, right, right?

(Lamont sighing)

- [Lamont] God.

- Look ladies,

I know this was some time ago,

but I need your help.

Is there anything you two remember

from the night your friend disappeared,

that can describe the guy
you all saw in the bar?

The night that your friend disappeared?

- Listen, we told you everything
that we knew back then

- And even with all the
information we gave the cops,

they still haven't found shit.

I guess we don't care about
our young black queens.

- I guess not.

- That's not true.

Look, we do care.

And believe it or not,

this is my number one priority right now

to figure out who's out here

hurting our young black queens.

- Look--
- Just trust me.

- We're gonna do whatever it takes

to make sure we find the girls missing.

- And until then?

'Cause right now I don't
have no faith in y'all.

- Yeah, y'all can't even
protect your own family.

What hope does that give us?

- God damn, y'all ain't going

of Jack or something?

God damn.

Me and them last laws I talked to,

man them mother fuckers
made me feel comfortable,

you hear me?

But you,

shit, you good baby.

See me and you,

that badge and them cuffs,

we gonna make us a real
live movie, you feel?

- We can make a movie?

Mm-hmm.

- Anyways, where them
other two laws at, man?

- FBI handles these type of cases.

- Look, we just trying to see

if anything resurface
your memory, that's all.

Do you know anything
that happened that night?

- Say I did remember something.

How can y'all accommodate me

for the information I'ma give back to you?

- What you mean?

- Listen,

I got a case on my head right now,

from where I might

or might not have

got pulled over with what

I might or might not have

had an illegal substance in my car.

You hear me?

So right now I'm facing 15 years.

Shit, y'all the FBI.

y'all mother fuckers known
for making shit disappear.

You hear me?

Shit, what's up?

What y'all need from me?

- Get your ass up outta here.

(phone ringing)

(indistinct background chatter)

(dramatic noise)

- Loretta,

it is 2:00 AM.

- I got a watch,

I know what time it is.

- Listen, you know I don't
mind watching your son,

but this?

Come on.

- If you don't mind, there
shouldn't be no buts.

I mean look, besides, Max is easy.

Hell, you barely even watching him.

Baby, he's 12 years old.

Boys need their moms in their lives.

They need somebody to
show them how to love,

hold their hands, something.

- That boy knows I love him.

- Knowing that you love him

and knowing how to do it

ain't the same baby.

You need to do something.

- Look, what you not gonna do

is tell me what I need to do with my son.

My son needs to grow up not broke,

which is more than what
my mama did for me.

- Loretta, you know I didn't
have my mom either, right?

But my parents were there.

- And that's what you have to show for it?

- Okay.
- Mm-hmm.

- Wow, right, there you go.

You always like to emasculate me.

- Emasculating you?

(Loretta scoffing)

Boy, please.

Gotta have some more
masculinity for me to do that.

Look, you can't fuck, you can't fight,

you can't fucking find a job

and one thing that you kinda good at,

you always damn complaining about it.

- Wow.

- Yes.

- Really?

- Mm-hmm.

- That's how it is?

(Lamont scoffing)

You know I have a master's
in psychology, right?

I don't need this shit.

(Loretta clapping)

- Okay, and what you
gonna do with that shit?

Teachers teach.
- Oh, I don't know.

But what I do know is,

is that this can't continue.

- Okay, right, right.

(Lamont groaning)

- I knew it.

I knew that you didn't respect me.

Listen do you...

Do you even love me?

- Why would I do something
so fucking stupid Lamont?

(Loretta chuckling)

Huh?

- Okay.

(Lamont clearing throat)

There's gonna come a time

where you're gonna wish I was here.

And that day is when you're gonna realize

this was the biggest mistake of your life.

- Okay.

- I'm done.

(Loretta clapping)

- Hey, don't forget your shit.

- [Lamont] Man, I don't
need any of this shit.

- I'll leave here with my fucking dignity.

I don't need this shit.

- Get your trifling ass outta here.

And if you leave out of that door, Lamont,

you not coming back in here.

Try me.

(door slamming shut)

(door slamming shut)

(somber music)

(upbeat background music)

- I mean, I'm just trying to understand.

- Can I get you guys
anything else to drink?

- Thank you.

So what makes you choose a girl?

- You don't have to do this Christine.

- Do what?

- Try to justify what I am.

- What you did was terrible,

but I believe I can--

- What?

Fix me?

You think you can fix what I am?

(somber music)

(cards shuffling)

(somber music)

- Hey, what you doing little man?

(cards shuffling)

Hey,

I was talking to you.

(cards clattering)

See you just like your mama.

You don't understand how this
thing's supposed to work,

but you going to find out today.

(somber music)

(box clattering)

Oh, you gonna pay for that.

(fist thudding)

- Like I said,

I looked at the newspaper

and he just matched the description.

I never saw anything
strange other than that.

But one night I was
coming home from a party

and I saw him coming out of
his garage in his black Jeep.

And he didn't look pleased
when I saw him in the car.

I mean, how many times
are you guys gonna ask me

the same questions?

- What do you mean?

- The detective just came
by yesterday at my house

asking me the same questions.

- What detective?

- The one who daughter died.

How do you guys not know this?

- [Man 3] Oh, that's... It's not.

(indistinct)

(phone ringing)

(dramatic noise)

- Hey, Don told me what happened.

Sorry for being rough with y'all,

but you know how y'all boys get.

Can't start something

without messing up the next thing, right?

You're strong, Max.

- Yeah, he sure is.

Almost strong enough to be a cop.

(Loretta laughing)

- You hear this fool baby?

And he said you should be a cop.

- And what's wrong with being a cop?

- My baby ain't being a cop,

he's gonna be a doctor.

Besides cops don't make no money.

- I'm a cop.

So what's wrong with being a cop?

- [Loretta] Stop it.

- What the hell you smirking at?

At least I get to have fun with her.

And what do you get, huh?

What kind of mother

doesn't wanna spend
time with her own child?

I feel sorry for you.

Having a mother that just doesn't love you

the way she should.

Just sad.

(Don chuckling)

(somber music)

- So you telling me

you don't know where the
hell your partner is.

- [Agent Perkins] Or where he might be?

- I don't.

But I'm pretty sure he's
dealing with the loss

of his daughter.

- You know why he's going around

asking questions about the case.

(somber music)

- Look, you two are no
longer a part of this case.

And if I find out that
you're covering for him,

you're gonna pay for it.

- You might wanna try New Orleans.

Look, I worry about him from time to time,

so I check on him.

When I check this morning,

that's exactly where he said he was.

- Why would he be in New Orleans?

- Off the record.

(phone ringing)

- Fuck.

Off the record.

- Carter's not dealing

with the loss of his daughter too well.

He's been obsessed with the Maxwell case.

And if he finds him before you two do.

There ain't gonna be no handcuffs.

- So why does Carter believe
Max is in New Orleans?

- All I know is he's working
with someone on the case.

It's a credible source.

So if he's in New Orleans,

it's for a damn good reason.

(somber music)

- [Man 4] How about the... How
about the (indistinct) again.

- I remember there was one summer

I went to my cousin's house,

and her parents would have
these terrible fights.

I mean they were just scream--

- Here you guys go.

- They were screaming and yelling

and we just locked
ourselves in the closet.

We were sure one of them

wasn't gonna make it to the morning.

The next morning they just act
like nothing ever happened.

- Don't try to relate.

It's not the same thing.

You don't know what it is to
have these impulses, Christine.

How euphoric it feels to
submit to these feelings.

- You don't have to submit to them Max.

You can fight it,

like you fight it with me.

- I don't wanna hurt you Christine.

If I wanted to, I
would've a long time ago.

- What makes me different?

What makes them special?

- Special?

- I mean all the girls are pretty similar.

- I'm not talking to you about this.

- Max,

We can get through this.

But I gotta know what
I'm getting myself into.

- I've done some terrible things recently,

and mostly have no regrets on none of it.

But we both know

that we can't live this fairytale life.

I'm gonna go to the restroom,

and when I get back,

I do not wanna see you again.

But I'm not gonna beg
for this pitiful life.

You know how many times

I've thought about ending my life.

I know I killed your daughter.

So if you gonna shoot me,

(slapping chest)

shoot me.

- Don't shoot him.

(Maxwell groaning)

(dramatic music)

(indistinct) stop,

stop.

- You wanna die?

- So you think he doubled
back and went to New Orleans?

- But why would Carl be in New
Orleans in the first place?

And the last thing we need to do

is waste money on a goose hunt.

- So which do you want first?

The good news or the bad news?

- Just say what you gotta say.

- Well, I did some digging
on the real Maxwell St Claire

and I found the make
and model of the vehicle

that drove by at the time of his death.

- Which was?

- Get this, it was a 2010 black Jeep.

Now that may be a coincidence,

but then I decided to do
a little bit more digging.

Then I found,

while he was dying in the hospital,

He only had one visitor, just one.

- Maxwell Borne.

- So what was the bad news?

(dramatic music)

- There was a shooting at
a bar in New Orleans today.

The two suspects fled the scene.

They shot a man in the bathroom.

- Carter got to Maxwell.

But that's good news.

(dramatic music)

- Fuck.

(dramatic music)

(crickets chirping)

(suspenseful music)

(engine rumbling)

(engine rumbling)

(suspenseful music)

- Why didn't you let him end this?

Every time I'm trying
to get you out of this,

you keep coming back.

- I didn't mean to kill him,

I just wanted to stop
him from killing you.

- I don't deserve to be saved.

Why do you keep trying to save me?

- 'Cause I love you.

- You don't love me,

you love the thought of who I was.

(Christine sobbing)

I'm tired of living a lie.

I've never been the
person you thought I was.

- Max, what is this?

Why are we here?

(suspenseful music)

- You see that feeling right there?

It's not love, it's fear.

You know,

I wonder why you followed me here.

I was confused at first,

but once I realized I saw
Detective Carter, I knew.

- You knew what?

- You tried to set me up.

- Max, I wasn't I...

- Relax, I'm not gonna kill you.

But you need to know

this is where we part ways.

Get out.

- You're gonna kick me out

in the middle of the night by myself?

- What are the odds of
you getting outta my car

and getting into another
serial killer's car?

One in a million, right?

- Max, don't do this.

(Max chuckling)

- I figured it out.

You know I'm not innocent,

You don't want me to die,

you know we can't be together,

so that only leaves one thing.

And now I'm not going to prison.

(suspenseful music)

I need you to go back to that bar

and tell 'em that I shot Detective Carter,

that I held you against your will.

You are not gonna ruin your life for me.

(suspenseful music)

- Okay.

- Go.

Now go.

(suspenseful music)

(door clicking)

- Max, I don't know

if this is gonna be
the last time I see you

or how much time you have left.

So I'm just gonna say this,

you have to forgive her.

I know she's gone,

but what she put you through,

that burden is still lingering.

All you do is destroy if
you don't forgive her.

Promise me.

(crickets chirping)

(door slamming shut)

(crickets chirping)
(suspenseful music)

- Okay.

Got it.

Thanks.

So we reviewed the footage

and it shows two suspects
fleeing the scene.

Maxwell Barnes and Christine French.

- But what we don't know

is if French is working with Barnes

or if this is a kidnapping situation.

- Max has been on a rampage
all across this country.

When could he have found the time

to come all the way back to Houston,

then kidnap his own wife.

- And most importantly, why?

These are the questions
that remain unanswered.

But right now,

we're gonna fly to Louisiana

to see if we can find out what's going on.

- You know there's a good chance

our suspect could still be in New Orleans,

but why does he keep going
back to his hometown?

Relatives? Friends maybe?

He could be seeking refuge there too.

- Okay, let's get packed

and get ready.

- Copy.

(gentle music)

- You think he's still in New Orleans?

- Agent Perkins,

I think Maxwell Barnes
is just getting started.

(gentle music)

Why do he keep killing these women

when he knows we already
have him identified.

- He's killed more women
since he's been ID'd.

It's like he's taunting us.

- Well let's just hope his arrogance

catch up to him and it
works out in our favor.

I think I have a plan.

- What you thinking?

- Every woman he's
killed, he's buried right?

- Except for Carter's daughter.

- Exactly.

He placed her body 'cause
he wanted her to be found.

(dramatic music)

- It's like he's sending a message.

- Yep.

He was sending a message.

Carter went to Maxwell's
house to ask questions.

Maxwell got upset,
killed Carter's daughter,

places her body to where she can be found.

Just so he can get intent gratification.

- So he's bold,

but how do we use that to catch him?

- We pick his next victim.

Let's get packed up.

(knocking on door)

(sinister music)

- Hey mom.

(crickets chirping)

(door clicking shut)

(crickets chirping)

- All right son, I'm gonna go to bed.

I don't know why you won't
just go to sleep in your room.

When did you say you leaving?

- I didn't.

- Well, thanks for coming to see me son.

You know you safe here.

No need to worry.

It's all over the news.

I'm surprised they not
kicking down the doors

to come in here and ask questions.

- You know the house is
not in your name, right?

I transferred the deed years ago.

Right before you foreclosed.

- That's right.

I don't remember what
all that fuss was about.

But I don't believe what they
all saying about you on there.

I raised a decent man.

No child of mine would ever
do something that stupid.

Bury a body halfway underground.

Child, only kind of
person that would do that

ain't worth half a quarter.

Even half a man knows

you bury a body six feet underground.

Good night, son.

(indistinct)

I don't know.

(woman laughing)

- I don't know.

(indistinct)

- Bye girl.

- All right, bye.

(suspenseful music)

(somber music)

- Yeah, sure I'll come in.

(knocking on door)

- I hate him so fucking much.

- What did he do now?

- What doesn't he do? I
get that we on a break,

but that doesn't give him
the right to be a hoe.

- I mean, wasn't he a hoe
when he was your boyfriend?

- Well, yeah, but that's
why I broke up with him.

- Kelly, what do you expect him to do?

- I don't know,

change, chase me.

Prove to me that I meant something to him.

Anyways, you wanna have a girl's night?

Binge watched some movies?

- Yeah, no, I'm tired.

You could stay, I'm exhausted.

(phone beeping)

Who was that?

- Oh, it's the guy from the bar tonight.

He wants to get beignets.

- What?

- What?

Why? What's your problem?

- Kelly, you just met this man.

There's a whole serial killer on the loose

and you out here trying to get laid.

- Rianna, I know this could
sound super fucked up,

but the CEO killer only targets
professional black women.

And I'm a redheaded college dropout.

I think I'll be okay.

And don't worry,

I will call you first thing in the morning

with all of the details.

Okay, okay,

I will call you when I wake
up with all the details.

- Girl, be careful, Kelly.

(door slamming shut)

(suspenseful music)

(suspenseful music)

- Any idea how he got
into the hotel last night?

- No.

He must have made a key

or maybe he was in the
room the entire time.

- Do you know where he went?

- I think when I was
fighting for my fucking life,

I might have forgot to ask
him who was next on his list.

- Listen, we're so
sorry for the questions.

It's just that

you are the only survivor
that we can talk to.

So any information that
we obtained from you

will help us out tremendously.

Anything that you remember,
please let us know.

- Where'd you go?

Were you alone?

Was it the same guy that
attacked you on the news

or was it someone different?

- We were out, me
celebrating passing the bar.

Went bar hopping and then at some point

we went to get something to eat.

- Where at.

- I saw him.

He was at the bar.

We bumped into in the
street on the way home.

The pervert was following us.

- Was this the guy?

- Yeah, I think.

His beard was a little thicker.

Everything happened so fast,

I can't really remember.

- We understand.

- Is there anything
else you need me to do?

- Actually, there's one thing.

(car engines rumbling)

(door clicking)

- Son, your wife is beautiful.

(spoon clicking)

I see why you got rid of the other one.

(Loretta chuckling)

I'm just kidding.

Have a seat, I'm cooking something.

- When did you start cooking?

- Well, if you would keep
your ass still long enough,

you would know when.

- How'd you find the house?

- I left my phone in your car

and tracked it.

It lead me here.

I didn't tell anyone Max.

But you're right,

I think you should turn yourself in.

- What?

- Max, your face is on every
TV screen in this country.

There's no evidence

that leads you to any
of those crime scenes.

You can beat this thing.

- But I am guilty.

I've already been through hell.

I'm not trying to relive it
again by going to prison.

The day that they catch me

is the day that I die.

- There's some good in you, Max.

You've gotta stop being so
scared to let that good out.

- You really don't know
what you're talking about.

- Am I supposed to?

You locked me out.

I don't know what's going on,

but I'm here trying to help you.

Just let me know what's
going on in your head,

I can handle it.

- You can handle it? (Max scoffing)

Do you remember the first
time that you called me?

What do you remember about that day?

- I remember waiting for you to call

and you never did.

So I called you first

and I remember you
acting like you were busy

doing yard work, not paying attention.

But I knew that wasn't true.

- I wasn't doing any yard work.

I was burying my horrible
wife and her punk ass lover.

(Christine gulping)

Did you know that I cut
both of their heads off

and drove all the way to Houston

with them in the back of my truck?

Stripping her life from my hands

is better than any orgasm
I've ever had with you

or anyone else.

And the urges.

The urges to kill some evil bitch

that thinks she knows
her place in this world

is unexplainable.

A woman should be at
home loving on her kids,

not like her.

- You have to forgive her Max.

You have to,

before your hate for her destroys.

- I've been destroyed Christine.

Tormented by these
thoughts since I was a kid.

I tried to fight these thoughts,

but this is who I am.

- You can still fight it.

You want to, I know you do.

- Have you ever fought to breathe?

I feel more alive than I ever had before.

I'm going to be leaving tomorrow morning

and this will be the
last time that I see you.

And I promise you it'll be the
last time you wanna see me.

- Where are you going?

- Somewhere where we both can't exist.

- You're not gonna eat.

- You haven't tried my mom's cooking.

(door squeaking)

(gentle music)

- Good evening.

My name is Hakim O'Neil

and I'm the resident
special agent in charge

of the FBI.

First I want to thank you
all for coming here today.

And I want to commend the
brilliant investigative efforts

from the FBI.

I'm now gonna pass it to
a couple of the agents

that were in charge of this investigation.

- Rianna Davis is a
reminder of women's strength

around the world.

Her courage and strength alone shows us

that we can actually beat the CEO killer.

All we have to do is stand up and fight.

- Maxwell Barnes,

we know you're out there

and we just want to let you know

that the whooping Rianna
Davis placed on you

isn't half of what the FBI is
gonna do when we catch you.

We will no longer let
some little pathetic man

prey on our women

and plague this country.

Our African-American women
have gone through enough

just to climb this ladder

and we will no longer allow
you to ruin their ambition.

- I think he's pathetic.

And the lack of ambition

drives him to pray on successful women,

because they're more of a
man than he will ever be.

(gentle music)

(upbeat music)

- Agents, let's catch Maxwell,

and get Rianna home safely.

♪ And I'ma get a drunk
nigga put it in my hand ♪

- Any eyes on the suspect.

♪ (indistinct) ♪ ♪ Now we
(indistinct) about to move ♪

♪ Now I got 'em in the crib (indistinct) ♪

- We have a suspect
approaching the target.

- Freeze, FBI.

Get on the ground.

Get on the ground, get on the ground.

- Get down now.

- You have the right to remain silent.

And anything you say can
and will be against you

in the court of law.
(head slamming)

- What's that?

You got anything in your pockets?

(suspenseful music)

(birds chirping)

(crickets chirping)

- What the fuck just happened, huh?

We had one fucking job.

Now Rianna is stable,

but as soon as she get out the hospital,

I can reassure you

that we're gonna have to
hear from her lawyers.

What the fuck was y'all thinking?

- Agent Williams.
- What, not right now.

- I just got word, we found him.

First I had to run a check

on all the relatives of Maxwell Barnes.

But nothing came up.

Then when I found he was married,

Maxwell, that is.

Just for kicks, we had to
run a check on her name

and found a house recently
purchased in 2020.

And guess who was the owner of the house

before she bought it?

- Loretta Barnes.

- Bingo.

(imitating bomb blasting)

- Let's get this shit right this time.

(crickets chirping)

- [Reporter] Still no
word on the cure for...

(door squeaking)

The virus is not airborne,

but can be transferred
through contact with blood

and other bodily fluids.

- [Loretta] Where did I go wrong?

- [Reporter On TV]
Violent and also somehow

seem to be reanimating the dead.

When asked--

- We're not doing this right now,

we're not.

- What did I do so bad?

You had clothes on your
back, food in your stomach.

- And pedophiles in my bed.

Don't act like you didn't know.

But you were just living your life, right?

- I don't gotta listen to this bullshit.

You know If it wasn't for me,

you would've been locked
away a long time ago.

- Woman, are you delusional?

I'm the one that was
trying to protect you.

No matter how many counselors
you try to send me to,

to try to erase my memory,

I still remember you
killed Donnie, not me.

- What do you think he
would've done when he woke up?

I was protecting you.

I'm always protecting you.

- And as a mother you failed.

And you probably still don't
feel guilty about that.

- No, no, no, no.

You are not gonna blame me for this.

Everything that they said
about you on that news,

that's not my fault.

You need to be accountable
for your own actions.

- That's funny.

What do you know about being accountable?

- Your 10th grade teacher,

what was her name?

Mrs. Walker.

She embarrassed you in
front of the entire class

and then she disappeared.

That's still my fault?

Look at me when I'm talking to you,

you pathetic little shit.

I cleaned up all the mess after you.

But you wouldn't know that

'cause all you did was cry

and talk about how I wasn't around.

When your father died, I stepped up.

I stepped up

and did whatever I had to do to raise you.

Long before any of this.

You used to torture animals in your room.

So do not blame this sickness on me.

You not ready for the truth.

I wasn't around you

'cause I couldn't handle
how fucked up you were.

Okay?

I did whatever I had to do to raise you.

Everything I did was to protect you.

- How did my father die again?

You know, I spent my whole life
thinking my father was dead.

Then I get a call from
a private investigator

saying my father is alive in the hospital

dying from Covid.

I always wonder why you
couldn't look me in the eyes.

Now I realize it's because
I look just like him.

(indistinct)

- I have two regrets in this life.

Ever meeting your father

and not listening to my mother

when she said I should
have got rid of you.

I could have been saving lives.

I could've made something of myself.

- Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Remember Christine French and Mrs. Barnes

is still alive in that house.

Let's get them out as safely as possible

and take care of Maxwell
the best way we can,

copy that?

Let's roll.

(gentle music)
(footsteps pattering)

(door thudding)

(gentle music)

Go.

Go, go, go, go, go.

(gentle music)

(footsteps pattering)

(gentle music)

Fuck.

(gentle music)

I'm so sorry.

Fuck.

- I already told you I
don't know where he is.

- That's not good enough Christine.

You owe a lot of people.

Now they may not hold you to it,

but I am.

Now think.

(clock ticking)

- I don't know.

(clock ticking)

(paper bag rustling)

(clock ticking)

- Your husband

murdered my daughter

and all these women

right under your nose.

I mean the man you slept with every night.

You knew something wasn't right about him

and you chose to protect him.

- I didn't know.

I didn't know.

- Well, maybe that's the truth.

What you do know is what he has done now

and you still refusing to help.

- You don't think I wanna
help find these girls.

I lose sleep every night blaming myself,

wondering why he didn't kill me.

(somber music)

Asking myself,

how can I even love someone so much

and not even know who

or what he is.

- Well, now is your time.

Then maybe you can get the
answers to those questions.

Don't you want closure?

Look,

I have nothing to live for.

My wife left me,

my department has put me
on mental leave of absence,

because all I do all day long

is sit on the couch

and stare

at my little baby girl.

And I hate myself

while I wasn't there for her

not being able to protect her.

And your husband took her away from me.

Christine,

help me here, fix this.

I need something to live for.

I need to capture your husband

and bring him in

before he murders some more women.

Christine,

please help me.

Help me.

Please,

please.
