MORGAN: Previously on
Criminal Minds.

It's Gideon.

MORGAN: Did he suffer?
M.E.: Not for long, no.

Did you hear any of that?

He didn't suffer.

(SNIFFS)

I'd just really like to play
one more game of chess with him.

Yeah.

But time will pass,

and slowly, you'll forget
how much it hurts.

Then maybe you'll find something else

to fill that empty space.

I don't want to find something else.

Reid.

What, are you working late?

Just waiting for rush hour to subside.

A lot of close personal
contact on the subway right now.

It's 10:00. The trains
have been empty for a while.

Go home.

The chess will keep till tomorrow.

Yeah. Probably just gonna
pack it up right now.

-Good night, Spencer.
-Night.

INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA

Triple stuffed omelette, hold the onions.

Yeah, thank you.

Huevos rancheros.

I ordered a Belgian waffle.

-(DOOR OPENING)
-(BELLS JINGLING)

Oh, right. Sorry about that.

Excuse me, can I get a table?

One sec.

Excuse me, I'm just waiting for cream.

I will grab it for you right now, ma'am.

(BELL DINGS)

I got two orders up.
You gonna serve 'em or what?

Are you gonna get
the order right, or what?

I didn't know Belgium was in Mexico.

Well, who can read
your handwriting, anyway?

Order up.

(GRILL SIZZLING)

Um, the cream?

Right. Just a sec.

-I can see it on the...
-MAN: Just let him do his job.

Breakfast burrito for you,

omelette for you.

I asked for chives.

You two have a chance
to look at the menu,

or do you need a few more minutes?

No, we come here all the time.

Do you have anything
that's gluten-free?

They don't have gluten-free.

It's worth asking.

MAN 1: You're right. I'm sorry.

Can we get some chives, please?

WOMAN: Why can't you let me...

Can you check on my order, please?

-(BELL RINGING)
-Order up!

MAN 2: Do you have any hot sauce?
WOMAN 1: These eggs are runny.

(BELL DINGING)

(EXPLOSION)

(CAR ALARMS BLARING)

(SIRENS WAILING)

Help!

An explosion happened
at a Beanery Brew House

in Indianapolis earlier this morning.

First responders are reporting
six dead, 16 wounded.

Brave guy.

Anyone claimed responsibility?

Not yet.

No, but Indianapolis P.D. believes
it may be related

to a bomb that went off
in an elementary school last week.

Yeah. That was a relatively low yield.

It claimed the life of Morton Truby.

He was a custodian
working the graveyard shift.

Authorities found traces of TNT.

Until today, they thought
it was an isolated incident.

Could this be another Boston
or Oklahoma City?

Beanery is a popular chain.

Exactly the type of location
a domestic terrorist would target.

The UnSub wants everyone
looking over their shoulder.

Yeah, we also shouldn't rule out
a disgruntled employee

or fundamental groups.

At this point, we can't rule anything out.
Let's move.

TNT doesn't pack
much bang for its buck.

It'd be pretty hard
to hide the amount needed

to cause the damage
at that coffee house.

This feels like page 118.

(PHONE RINGING)

The Anarchist Cookbook.

TNT for dummies.

The blast at the school
seems rudimentary.

It may have been
the UnSub's testing ground.

The coffee house could indicate
a drastic escalation.

The book also teaches you
to make nitroglycerin.

The coffee shop could represent
a steep learning curve.

So this guy is either quick on his feet

or both blasts were
part of a sophisticated plan.

In that case, we can't be certain

that the coffee house
is this guy's finale.

Yeah. Which is why
the plane's been ready.

We can be in Indianapolis in two hours.

REID: "The most heroic word
in all languages

"is revolution."

Eugene Debs.

This is interesting. The maintenance
worker killed at the school

was working late installing
a new circuit panel.

He wasn't supposed to be there.

So the UnSub may not have
intended to kill anyone.

If he canvassed the site beforehand,

he would have anticipated
the school being empty.

Exactly.
But with the coffee house,

he struck first thing in the morning,
when it would be packed.

Maximizing collateral damage.

I don't like it.
That's a pretty fast confidence boost.

Successful bombers always
have a practice run.

-Maybe the school was his.
-What's his endgame?

Most bombers like the attention
they get from playing God.

They don't go dormant,
they strike again.

So will this guy.

No one's claimed
responsibility for either attack.

That could point away
from a fundamentalist

or a fear driven offender.

Maybe it's personal.

All right, when we land let's
divide and conquer.

Victims, witnesses, and ballistics.

See if we can find a pattern
so we can prevent a third attack.

WOMAN: (ON P.A.) ER. Unit to the ER.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

-Excuse me, have you seen Agent...
-Uh-uh.

(TELEPHONE RINGING)

Please, can you help me?
I can't find my dad.

Of course. What's his name?

Pat. Pat Aguilar.

We were together at the coffee house.

Okay, I'll see if I can
find anything out for you.

Please! I need to know.

Where was your father
when the bomb went off?

He had to go to the bathroom,

but he let some pregnant lady in first.

Please, no one's telling me anything.

I'll see what I can find out, okay?

-HOTCH: Reid.
-Excuse me.

He can't find his father.

HOTCH: There are a number
of people still in surgery.

Maybe we should consider doing
cognitive interviews.

Well, witness accounts are varied,
which is to be expected.

When people are more emotionally
ready, it'll be a good idea.

Have you seen
the pregnant woman anywhere?

Yeah, she's still in the delivery room.

We should talk to the guy
who rescued her.

He may have seen something
the others didn't.

Allen Archer.
He's been treated and released.

JJ and Kate are on their way
to his house now.

Are you gonna be okay?
I need to see the M.E.

-I'm fine.
-Thanks.

Excuse me, do you know anything
about a patient named Pat Aguilar?

I'm just about to notify the family, sir.

He didn't make it.

Mr Aguilar, I'm so sorry.

It looks like the media
is scrambling for a sound bite

from their local hero.

Yeah, I don't know
what all the fuss is about.

Anybody with half a right mind
would have done the same thing.

Well, they didn't. You did.

How's the mother?

She went into labor. It's a boy.

-Was this a terrorist attack?
-(HUSHED) Obviously.

I don't think that we're classifying it
as terrorism just yet.

So did you notice anything suspicious
when you ran inside?

Anyone that didn't seem panicked?

No. No, nothing like that.

Did you see where the blast came from?

ALLEN: Um, there were two,

I guess.

When I ran in there,
there was only a small fire.

But then the back wall just exploded.

Who's the man in the photos?

Um, my first husband, Grant.

He was a Navy SEAL.
He died in Afghanistan.

And you all were friends?

Yeah. Allen introduced us.

It's, uh... It's almost 3:00.

-I have to pick up Hannah.
-Yeah.

It's our daughter.

I'll, uh... I'll go with you.

That way you don't have to fend off
the reporters alone.

Oh, I think we can help you there.

(REPORTERS CHATTERING
INDISTINCTLY)

Ladies and gentlemen,

I'm SSA Jennifer Jareau,
this is SSA Kate Callahan.

I'd like to make a statement
on behalf of the Archer family.

Allen Archer did what anyone
in his place would have done.

Allen saved a woman, and in doing so,

saved her child,
who I am happy to report

was born less than an hour ago.

Mother and child are doing fine,

as is Allen and his wife.
But they are understandably shaken.

The Archer family asks that
you please give them privacy

-as they deal with today's tragic events.
-(TRUCK ENGINE STARTING)

REPORTER: Wait! That's the family.
They're leaving!

Sorry, guys,
guess you're gonna have to capitalize

on somebody else's trauma today.

Thank you.

DYLAN: The guy planted the device
in the bathroom.

Lethal Weapon style.

MORGAN: What type of explosive
did he use?

TNT. Same as the school.

-The wiring's kind of sketch.
-ROSSI: How do you mean?

The soldering work, it's not the best.

I'd say he put it together in a hurry.

Maybe he was hesitant
about killing so many people.

Or nervous. You'd need a lot more
TNT to do this kind of damage.

You would think. But...

Take a look at this.

Right here.

Because he put the bomb in the toilet,

the blast was pretty well contained,
or at least it should have been.

But the explosion shot back,
rupturing the natural gas line.

Increasing the explosion tenfold.

The question is,
was it coincidental or intentional?

He's still a bad dude, either way.

Yeah, but the answer
will weigh heavily on our profile.

How so?

Well, if the gas line rupture
was an accident,

the UnSub's motive may not be to kill.

So learning he claimed
so many lives could unravel him,

-make him even more dangerous.
-Exactly.

But if the gas line was planned,

then this UnSub's learning curve
is something to be reckoned with.

He might try to outdo himself.

Um, neither of those are
particularly good options.

Well, what's good is
we can rule out terrorism.

What's bad is we have
absolutely no idea who this guy is.

DYLAN: I'm running a trace analysis

to determine
the manufacturer of the TNT.

I will download you ASAP.

-Thank you.
-Mmm-hmm.

Um... Einstein, huh?

(LAUGHS) Yeah.
Bet you don't ever forget it.

You're kind of young to be
a forensic specialist, aren't you?

Finished medical school at 19
and then residency afterwards.

My dad really wanted me
to live up to the family name.

(GIGGLES)

FEMALE NEWSPERSON: (ON TV)
Federal authorities are investigating

a possible connection between
the explosion today

and that of a school last week.

Again?

It helps me focus.

You know, in light of recent events,

I think it's okay
to give yourself a break.

An entire night, though...

What do you mean?

You're wearing the same shirt
from yesterday,

and you're covering it
with a cardigan from your go-bag.

Guess I, uh, must have gotten
a little carried away last night.

Well, it happens.

FEMALE NEWSPERSON: (ON TV)
...leaving seven people dead

and countless others injured. But in
the wake of horror, came the story of...

So, what drives most bombers?

Ego, craves attention.

REPORTER ON TV: Allen Archer...

Except he has to share his headlines.

He's not gonna be happy about that.

He might try to reclaim that attention.

The only way to do that
is to strike again.

Somewhere he can ensure
a higher body count.

Or a personal one.

You were so brave today.

Hmm. I was lucky.

I still can't believe
I ran back into the fire like that.

Well, you heard
what those two agents said.

You're a hero.

You saved two lives.

When the second blast hit,

I thought, thought that was it.

Thought I'd never see you
and Hannah again.

(DOOR OPENING)

(LAUGHING)

Hey, sweetie. What are you doing up?

I heard noises.
I thought someone was in the house.

Oh, honey, it's just us. Come here.

Hey, did you know

that Allen saved a woman and a baby
from a fire today?

Really?

-Really.
-Cool.

(LAUGHS)

I think it's pretty cool, too.

Tell me what happened.

Oh, sweetie,

I think it's time
we get you back to bed, okay?

I promise you everything
is fine, fine, fine.

Okay, come on.

-Good night, Allen.
-Good night, sweetheart.

Hey, babe.

I'm gonna run to the store.

-Okay.
-All right. I'll be right back.

(TRUCK DOOR CLOSING)

REPORTER: (ON RADIO) ...with
the death toll rising to seven earlier

this afternoon. Indianapolis P.D. has
released the names of those

deceased, including Pat Aguilar, 65,

Grace Calvern, 19, Joe Gardez, 27,

-ALLEN: (SIGHING)
-Scott Legford, 11,

Jackson Novert, 21.

Ryan Spatman, 46...

-(WHIMPERING)
-...and Bree Wanfield, 32.

Federal authorities remain baffled
as to the perpetrators...

(ENGINE MISFIRING)

Oh, my God.

(GASPING)

(ALLEN EXCLAIMING)

You gotta go, baby.
You gotta go, please.

(SIRENS APPROACHING)

Take Hannah
and you get away from here.

Far away from here, you hear me?

(TIRES SCREECHING)

Go! Brenda, please!

You gotta get out of here, baby.

Ma'am, you need to get
your daughter out of here.

Ma'am, you need to get
your daughter out of here.

-No, I'm not leaving Allen.
-I'm sorry, but you have to.

This is for you and your
daughter's safety. Please trust us.

You get away from here, okay?

Get out of here, please!

-Please help him.
-We will.

Okay? All right.

Come this way, ma'am.

How the hell did we
beat the bomb squad here?

I could give you statistics,
but I don't think this is the time.

Are we really gonna do this?

Turn your cell phone off.

Nitroglycerin.

No, no, no. Stay back. Stay back!

Stay back. I don't want
anybody else to get hurt.

Stop talking. Just listen.
Just listen to me.

We're with the FBI
and we're here to help.

When you put your foot down,

you triggered the arming mechanism.

If you move,

you could set it off.

Where are Brenda and Hannah?
Are they okay?

-I don't want them to die, too.
-Nobody's gonna die.

They're safe. Don't worry.
Bomb squad's gonna be here soon.

I need you to keep the exact pressure
that you have on that brake

as you have right now.

If you don't,
all three of us are gonna die.

Well, can you do something?

REID: Can you?

This thing's homemade,

but the framework is familiar.

Yeah. Yeah, I can disarm this.

I just need something sharp.

I've got a knife in my glove box.

ALLEN: It's underneath
a map. Right there.

MORGAN: Sir, just sit still.
You're doing fine.

-I'm gonna get you out of here.
-ALLEN: Okay.

Hey, kid.

I think you should back up.

Not happening.

What's the next step?

All right, the trick is rendering
the pressure sensor inactive

without letting the detonator
think that it's time to go.

The only problem is, this son of a bitch
built this thing by himself

and he used all the same color wires.

Seven wires, and you don't know
which one to cut?

I'm not so crazy about these odds.

It's gotta be one of these two right here.

Guys, you gotta do
something quick here, man.

My foot is cramping up.
I cannot keep

-my foot on this pedal...
-REID: Sir, please.

If you want to stay alive,
I need you to keep that foot down

and try to sit still, please.

Reid,

it's probably this wire right here,

if he stayed true to the original design.

Go with your gut.

ALLEN: What, what? Well?

Sir, you're fine.
You can get out of the car.

Are you serious? You did it? You did it?

I'm gonna live?

-I'll take you to your family.
-(SIRENS WAILING)

Oh, my God. Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you so much.

Thank you.

(TIRES SCREECHING)

You've got four nitroglycerin packs.

Now, I've defused it,

but the nitro is homemade.

It's almost guaranteed to be unstable.

Copy that.

Rossi was right. The UnSub doesn't
like sharing attention.

So he's decided
to eliminate Allen Archer.

And now he's graduated
to nitroglycerin.

Page 113.

We should put the Archers into
protective custody until further notice.

Once the bomb squad's
done clearing that house,

I want to take another look at that device

and see if there's anything
else we can learn.

We believe the man you're looking for

is an ego-driven,
personal-cause bomber.

KATE: In other words, he needs
to be the center of attention.

That's why we're advising that you keep

the location for tonight's
bombing attempt confidential.

If the UnSub sees headlines
that don't belong to him,

we believe he'll become enraged.

He seems pretty angry now.

Yes, he wants us to pay attention.

Even if it means targeting the man
who's disrupting his message.

So what's his message?

Look at me.

Fear me.

I am God.

His sophistication level puts him
in his 30s or 40s.

TNT may be easy to produce,

but nitroglycerin
is much harder to handle.

It took patience and an eye for detail.

He's controlled and methodical.

He's highly intelligent.

He'll absolutely want to
witness his work,

so we need to look at traffic cams
and eyewitness footage of the blast.

He could be on camera.

We should also canvass
public spaces like outdoor malls,

farmers markets, Monument Circle.

The fact that he targeted
a school and a popular coffee chain

means he wants no one to feel safe.

Do you think he'll strike again?

It's inevitable. A bomber with
a God complex feels invulnerable.

We need to appease him
and start communications with him.

That's how we'll catch him. Thank you.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

He really went for
a bigger boom this time.

I recognize the make-up,

92% nitroglycerin, 8% nitrocellulose.

Straight out of the cookbook.

Good memory.

I have a thing for numbers.

And quantum theory.

Funny.

The UnSub certainly singled Allen out.

MORGAN: He could have planted
the device in his home,

but instead he chose his truck

because he wanted to ensure
that Allen was the one who triggered it.

He needed to make sure the hero died.

Kill the family
and they just become martyrs.

Well, it's a wonder he even realized
that he triggered the bomb.

Maybe he heard something
when he stepped on the pedal.

What, and knew not to move?

I mean, come on. What's this guy got?

An ex-paramilitary background
we don't know about?

Brenda Archer's first husband, Grant,
was military.

Is it just me, or do you think it's odd

that Allen ended up marrying
his best friend's wife?

I don't know.
Shared sorrow could build a bond.

JJ and Kate said the house
was like a shrine to the deceased.

Well, that would explain
why he kept all this stuff out here.

He feels like he's living
in someone else's home.

That kind of man would be
desperate for recognition.

He was crying.

This could be why.

Reliving trauma
or feeling guilty about something?

-I think we should ask him.
-And his wife.

That's what you guys do.
You just talk a lot.

Well, there's also
a lot of kicking down doors involved.

Sure. I'm heading back to the lab.

-I'll let you know what I find.
-Thanks.

Garcia, did you find anything in
Brenda and Allen Archer's background

that indicate a knowledge
of explosives?

Nothing that sticks out.

But I am the queen of lots of things,

including subtlety.

(KEYBOARD CLICKING)

Shut up. I'm talking about the way
I deftly sift through information stuff.

He's a carpenter

who has a severe Amazon addiction,

Kindle, to be specific.

What kind of books?

Self-help. A lot of emo stuff.

How to build your self-esteem,
how to get over depression.

Coming out of your shell.

A whole bunch of comic books.

Nothing "how to build a bomb" related?

No. Sorry.

Oh, he is seeing a marriage counselor.

Things are not so good
on the home front.

They've certainly improved now.

She was all over him
when we interviewed them.

Something tells me that's not ordinary.

Allen is living
in the shadow of Grant Ford.

Maybe the coffee shop
was his introduction.

Garcia, Brenda's first husband,
Grant Ford, was a Navy SEAL.

What was his specialty?

Oh, that's a good question.

Give me a moment. It was...

Explosive ordnance.

He ran into the coffee shop moments
before the secondary blast

from the ruptured gas line.

Well, that could have just been
an accident.

So his wife is a witness,
Allen races into the blaze

and saves the most
sympathetic person he can think of.

And becomes a hero to his wife.

Hey, Reid.

(SIGHS)

Yeah, we got him, Hotch.

Have a seat.

What's this about?

Sit down.

BRENDA: I don't understand.

First, I'm in protective custody,

now I'm in an interrogation room?

What the hell is going on?

Where is my husband?

We heard you had a rough night.

A rough night. Are you serious?

ROSSI: Well, stress can be unbearable.

We can get you some water if you want.

I want to be with my daughter.

We almost died last night.

It's interesting that you didn't, though.

Why do you think that is?

KATE: Most people's flight instincts
would take over.

They'd flee, setting off the bomb.

How did you know what to do?

I don't know. I felt something click.

What clicked? A remote? A wire?

No, the hairs on the back of my neck
were standing up.

And I looked down and I saw something.

I didn't know what,

I thought the bomber might be
coming after me, and I froze.

I just froze.

KATE: "I didn't know what."

What?

That was the lie, Allen.
You're not even good at hiding it.

You swallowed before you said it

and you looked over my shoulder
when you did.

So because I need a glass of water,
I'm guilty?

If you're not guilty,
then why did you hide Grant's books?

He's not even denying it.

I am denying it.

Not that I had the books,
(STUTTERING) that I did anything.

BRENDA: He pulled out the books

after the explosion.

He said he wanted
to understand what nearly killed him.

Who prompted that conversation?

What do you mean?

Did he show you the books
and explain them, or did you find them?

Oh, no, I found them and asked about it.

-What?
-Well, why did Allen hide the books

if he was so open about them?

No, he asked me to hide the books,

because...

He didn't want there to be any confusion

when you came to interview us.

ROSSI: What is it?

Trust your gut.
Has Allen been acting odd lately?

Look, he's been working
a lot of late nights.

ROSSI: That's not what
his work told us.

I'm not saying anything else
until I see my husband.

Why did you hide your
nighttime activities from your wife?

KATE: You want to know what we think?

Not really. No.

You lived in Grant's shadow
for far too long.

You had a thing for Brenda,
you saw that he was interested,

and you knew you didn't
stand a chance.

How could you? He was a hero.

KATE: And you watched them fall in
love, get married, have a daughter.

You watched them live the life
that you wanted.

And then he died.

So you waited.

You waited for the perfect opportunity

to prey on Brenda's vulnerability.

HOTCH: And you thought it worked.

KATE: But you know what?

She never loved you.

No. That's not true.

She loves me.

Listen to yourself.
You don't even believe it.

How are we supposed to?

I love my wife.

We believe that much is true.

We saw evidence of it when you
tried to keep Grant's daughter...

My daughter.

And Brenda away from your truck.

But answer this.

When the bomb went off
at the coffee shop,

and you were directly across the street,

why did you leave her there?

KATE: You would only do that
if you knew she wasn't in danger.

HOTCH: Because you had
planted the bomb.

KATE: But you didn't plan on
the gas line rupturing,

which actually put her in danger.

-You just wanted to be a hero.
-Like Grant.

Except you're not a hero, Allen.
You're just a coward.

Then why did I kill all those people?

Huh?

You two have all the answers.
Why did I kill all those people?

-Well, that was way too easy.
-Yes, it was.

It doesn't make sense
that Allen would risk hurting Brenda.

He values her too much.

Reid said he was
legitimately scared at his house.

You can't fake fear like that.

The bomb in Archer's truck
was planted by somebody else.

A second UnSub.

Do you think Allen pissed off a partner

who decided to take him out?

Only one way to find out.

All right, we know you
planted the bomb at the coffee shop

because you wanted to be a hero,

but you had nothing to do with the one
at your house last night.

-Who did?
-I have no idea.

-A partner?
-I worked alone.

-He's lying.
-I'm not.

Why would you plant a bomb that would
put your wife and child at risk?

You wouldn't.

So, you either had a partner or...

You had nothing
to do with the blast at the school.

You wouldn't.
Your house is in another district

and there are safer testing grounds.

You heard about it, so you decided
to build a bomb of your own

to impress your wife.

Yes.

And you killed seven people
in the process.

I never meant for that to happen.

And I'm sure that's gonna help their
families sleep much better at night.

Why lie?

Because you were caught?

-KATE: The self-sacrificial type, huh?
-Shut up.

You took credit
for somebody else's work.

And she hates you.

And the other bomber hates you
and now he wants to outdo you.

MORGAN: Archer was a copycat.

The coffee shop bombing
changes the profile.

We have to start over.

Eliminate the coffee shop,
what do we have?

An UnSub who set TNT
in a high school boiler room

and nitroglycerin in the home
of a man who stole his headlines.

And a boiler room
that should have been empty.

He didn't want to kill anyone.

Well, that certainly changed
at the Archer house.

He went for the biggest
bang for his buck.

The death of the janitor
at the high school

gave the UnSub the urge to kill again.

That's the bombing
we need to pay attention to.

JJ: We have a problem.

Someone leaked the location
of the truck bomb to the press.

Headlines are all about Allen again.

The media's calling on the mayor
to give him a key to the city.

But obviously the mayor
isn't about to do that.

He has to.

What's your plan, Aaron?

Do you want to be a hero?

What are you talking about?

Do you want to be a real hero,
like Grant?

Got a chance for you to prove yourself.

You can't be serious.

Believe me,
if there were any other way,

we wouldn't ask.

(WEEPING) I can't see him again.

He nearly killed me and my daughter.

I can't lose her, too.

We will be right there to back you up.

No, I'm not doing it.

-You can't make me do that.
-You're right.

You're right, I can't.

All I can do is ask you to trust us

and to help save lives,

the same way Grant did.

That is not fair.

I know it's not.

(SNIFFLING)

(COMPUTER BEEPING)

I can't believe
you got the mayor to do this.

Once we apprehend this guy,
it will all have been his idea.

Ah, now it makes sense.

(CAMERAS CLICKING)

Thank you for agreeing to help us.

I just hope you're right.
Otherwise I'm going to look bad.

And I'll make sure you do, too.

MALE REPORTER: Excuse me.

And now I remember
why I didn't go into politics.

(CAMERAS CLICKING)

Oklahoma,

New York,

Langley,

Shanksville, Boston,

Indianapolis.

I never wanted our great
city to join that list.

But those who do evil

force us to face our fears
and overcome them.

And we will overcome,

because of men like Allen Archer,

men willing to stand up
for what is right.

It is my proud honor to declare today

Allen Archer Day.

Please join me as I show Allen
a sign of our appreciation

for his heroic bravery in
the face of hostility

by giving him a key to the Circle City.

Anything?

(CROWD APPLAUDING)

Nothing yet.

-All clear here.
-JJ: Same here.

MAN: Good job, Allen!

(CROWD APPLAUDING)

Allen is an inspiration.

-(CELL PHONE RINGING)
-MAYOR: All too often we...

What have you got, Garcia?

Some exceedingly curious information.

Two weeks ago,
there was a fire at an ethanol plant.

Now, there were no casualties,
but I found a connection

between the ethanol plant
and the school.

What's the connection?

Last month a member of
the school board

was fired for having sex with a student.

Now, the student was over 18,
so no charges were filed,

but the member of the school board
violated his contract, like massively,

so he was dismissed.

The sexy indiscretions happened
on the grounds of the ethanol plant.

-Who's the board member?
-James Burke.

Pretty active in the community
until the affair went public.

-I'm sending you his photo now.
-Thank you.

-(PHONE BEEPS)
-MAYOR: I say, here is our city.

-See us.
-Bogey on East Franklin.

-MAYOR: Realize you have not...
-All right, let's shut this down.

IPD, don't let that van
breach the perimeter.

(TIRES SQUEALING)

Reid and JJ, get the Archers to safety.
Dave, you get the mayor.

We are America,

and we defy you.

(TIRES SQUEALING)

Put the van in park!

I was told to park on Main.

That's not gonna happen. I said put it
in park or I'm gonna do it for you.

Okay, okay.

And get out of the car slowly.
Let me see your hands.

Slowly.

Open the door.

Both of 'em.

Now back away. Back away.

(GRUNTS)

That's not him.

It's a bomb! Back away! Back away!

Back away!

(BEEPING)

(BEEPING STOPS)

What the hell?

Get up. Get up.

Who told you to bring the van here?

Some guy.
He paid me 200 bucks to drive it.

-This guy?
-Yeah, yeah, that's him.

It's a decoy.

Go to your secondary locations.
He's here somewhere.

What the hell's going on?

The bomber's here.
We don't know where.

-Evacuate the area.
-This is on you.

(BEEPING)

It's over, James.

I'm the one with the bomb.

Yes, you are.

You're not gonna use it.

Why is that, then?

You're a narcissist who craved power
your whole life.

And when you lost that, you snapped.

JJ: How could all those people
you call friends

turn their backs on you?

You didn't even
do anything wrong, James.

I didn't.

She was 18. It's not even illegal.

How could they fire you over that?

How could they ruin your life?

So you planted a bomb,

burned down one of the schools
so the new board would panic.

Only you accidentally took a life.

And then you realized the only way
anyone would ever notice you

is if you killed again.

I should set this off
and take you out with me.

You're not gonna do that.

Because you think you are a god.

And gods don't die.

You will die if you detonate that, James.

And then you'll never have the chance

to take credit
for the bombs you did build.

Put down the bomb

so we can tell everyone
what you did and why.

(BEEPING)

Let's go.

So how'd you know he'd
head to the basement?

Well, the fire at the ethanol
plant and at the school

both happened in the electrical rooms.

I apologize for earlier.

Thank you for trusting us.

I just want you to know
how much it meant to me

that you would do this.

I didn't do it for you.

Brenda.

I just wanted to say thank you.

I know this wasn't easy, and we
couldn't have done this without you.

But the good thing about being a mom,

you'll always be her hero.

Mommy!

is remarkably sober,

"very undramatic.

Arthur Ashe.

You ever gonna finish this game?

It's a tough one.

Playing yourself can be difficult.

Playing a ghost, even more so.

He's gone, Spencer.

Keeping the game going
won't change that.

I know. I just thought

that maybe I could keep
part of him alive

if his last game never ended.

Neither side will ever win
playing like this.

He hated good-byes.

Gideon also hated unfinished business.

So...

Let's finish it.

What are you doing?

Moving my rook.

Do you know how to play chess?

Who do you think Gideon played
before he met you?

I'm probably gonna finish you
in five moves.

Check.

Don't hold your breath, sonny boy.
