[gasps]

Hey, Mom, came as fast as I could.

Show me.

You didn't see anybody?

No.

Why would someone break into
Dad's office?

I don't know.

- Anything missing?
- No. Not that I can tell.

I overreacted.

I shouldn't have called you.

Sheriff said there'd been break-ins
in the area, probably just kids.

Dad always had a place
for everything, didn't he?

Well, that's one way of putting it.

First time I beat them to the top.

- You were so proud.
- I was positive they let me win.

Used to drive me crazy.

You should get cameras.

And be spied on? No, thank you.

No need for it. Really.

- I'm sorry I bothered you.
- No problem.

I'm glad I was nearby.

[phone vibrates]

Aren't you gonna take that?

It's probably just work.

- Teddi.
- Take it.

Hey, Teddi.

How do you feel about
a nice drive to Montana?

Montana?

Go.

Yeah.

Why don't I call you tomorrow
morning to get the details?

Thanks.

I'm fine. You can go now.

No, I'd feel better
if I spent the night.

So $35,000 is offered for information
as to the whereabouts of Jackson Cheong,

age 27, works as an accountant
in Missoula, Montana.

The reward was posted by his parents,
Mark and Eden.

It's a recent photo of your son Jackson?

About a year ago.
He was volunteering at the library.

Free tax advice.

[woman] Jackson was a bit shy,

so it was good for him to get out
and meet people.

- You said he met a woman?
- Yeah, Rebecca Smith.

How long ago was that?

- About two months ago.
- You have a photo of her?

You can say it...

She's too old for him.
Twenty years at least.

Your son's 27 years old.
He's an adult.

If you're looking for someone

to tell him who not to
fall in love with, that's not me.

It's not that. He's missing.

Quit his job,
canceled his cell phones,

left his apartment
and emptied his bank accounts.

You think something happened to him?

Hopefully it's nothing
and we're just overreacting.

He's our only child.

[speaking other language]

We tried to track down Rebecca Smith
ourselves, but there's nothing online.

We can't figure out where she works.

What makes you so sure
he's with her now?

He was with her
the last time we spoke to him.

I don't know how to say it,
he's taken with her, I guess.

The moment Jackson met that woman,
he changed.

Stopped returning our calls,
missing family dinners.

And his accounting firm called,

looking for him
after he missed a few client's meetings.

And then two weeks later,
he quit his job and vanished.

Anything else you can recall?

The last time we saw him,
he looked tired,

like he's been up for days.

He said he was doing
some work for Rebecca.

When I asked him what it was,
he said it was the kind

that people can't find out about,
that he could get in trouble for it.

Any idea what that might be?

I'm thinking this Rebecca
has him cooking books

or laundering money,
and he wasn't himself.

Something bad has happened to him.

I just know it.

[phone vibrating]

Bobby.

Rebecca Smith? "Smith"?
Are you kidding me?

There's a million results.

Oh, good. You got my text.

You're lucky I speak Colter.

Most people wouldn't know what to do
with a random photo, zero context,

next to one of the most
common names in North America.

Is this when
you tell me how hard it was

but you managed to find her?

Pretty much.
But I don't have her yet.

How long will it take
to sift through all that?

No time at all. There's an app for that.
Built it myself.

Of course you did.

Okay. Good news and bad news.

No matches for the facial recognition
overlap the name,

but I do have a mugshot
for a Rebecca Pendergast,

who's looking real, same same.

"Same" like identical?

See for yourself.

Yeah, that's her.
So she's using a fake name.

Mugshot? What was she in for?

"Insurance fraud, wire fraud,
plus some tax evasion."

But she hasn't served any time.
The charges were dropped.

Jackson's parents said
his of bank accounts were drained.

Sounds like she's a con woman
and he's the next mark.

- You said insurance fraud, any chance...
- Great minds.

Yep, cross-referenced with
Jackson Cheong, and there's our girl.

Ooh! She's the beneficiary of
a big old fat policy Jackson took out.

That application have an address on it?

[man speaking indistinctly]

[man] Make it stop!

She's trying to kill me!

- No, I don't want you!
- [woman] That's fine.

But I have to ask...
[continues indistinctly]

- [man on video] You can't make me!
- What the hell?

[man] How do you know?
You don't know anything about me!

- [voices chattering on video]
- [man] Why is this happening to me?

It's not fair!

You can't make me!
How do you know?

You don't know anything about me.

What is happening? It's not fair.

[voices chattering indistinctly
over video]

[vehicle approaching]

Who the hell are you?

Yeah, sorry I kicked the door in.
It's a bit of a misunderstanding.

It's actually a funny story,
if you care to hear it. Guess not.

[all grunting]

[grunting]

Let's try this again.

Who the hell are you?

Colter Shaw.

Let me see some ID.

Pocket.

Like I said, man,
I don't want any trouble, okay?

I'm not here to steal things.

I'm here on a job, just like you guys.

What "job" is that?

I'm looking for Jackson Cheong.

Never heard of him.
This is private property.

We can call the cops and have you
arrested for break-in.

Maybe I'll shoot you.
Tell them I was standing my ground.

If you were gonna shoot me,
you would've done it already.

Same goes for calling the cops.

I'm just gonna go, all right?
Don't want any trouble.

Better not see you here again.

Yeah.

[Colter] Got a bad feeling about this.

- What are you talking about?
- Rebecca Pendergast.

She's got an impressive
surveillance setup.

Private security.

Whatever Jackson Cheong's
got himself involved in,

- it's much worse than a bad romance.
- You're thinking blackmail?

- Some kind of kidnapping ring?
- I don't know yet.

I'm gonna find out
what the hell's going on.

[woman] A potential transformation,
it's there.

The part of you
that is ready to change.

Put aside all those negative thoughts
standing in your way.

All those walls you let others put up.

Walls so high, they block the light
that shines for us all.

Are you ready to see the light?

[all] We're ready.

One man can lead you to it.

Seth.

[applauding]

[Seth] Close your eyes.

We must see the light
before we can feel it.

[all] We see it.

It's here for you. It's all around us,

waiting to be tapped by those
who are willing to put in the work.

[whispering indistinctly]

You, sir.

I see you.
I see what you're carrying.

The pain like a stone.

Colter, is it?

Colter Shaw.

We have much to discuss.

I look forward to our time together.

And you, ma'am,

I see your loss.

I see the grief
that you're trying to hide.

So, it's a cult.

I don't think they'd use that word,
but, yes, they're offering empowerment.

The path to becoming alpha.

It's not uncommon
for organizations like this

to isolate people
from their loved ones.

They find an emotional wedge,
they drive it in.

Once they do that,
they've got total control.

Can you get him out?

Aside from forcibly removing him,
if Jackson doesn't wanna leave,

there's really nothing I can do.

All we're asking is that you try.

You don't strike me as a man
to give up so easily.

No, sir, I'm not.

[cell phone ringing]

-Hey.
- Hey, guys.

I need to know all the info you can find

about an organization
called Positive Light.

They've got a headquarters
outside of Missoula.

I'm headed there tomorrow.
I need to know what I'm walking into.

-We'll get into it.
- I'll be moving fast.

They know I'm looking for Jackson.
They'll be ready for me.

[bird cawing]

Do you think we can do that tomorrow?

Thank you. You can go.

Where's Jackson Cheong?

Mr. Shaw, I had a feeling
we'd be seeing you again.

Where is he?

There's no need for the tough-guy pose.

Jackson's not being kept here
against his will.

Then he can tell me that himself.

Colter... May I call you Colter?

Jackson's happy here.

He's found his place with us,

and we've really come to depend
on his financial guidance.

Great. Where is he?

Unfortunately,
he's in a session with Seth.

I figured he might be.

Perhaps you'd like to meet Seth.

I'd really like to see Jackson.

I'm afraid
that's not going to be possible

unless you meet with Seth first.

Okay.

- Are you ready?
- [knocking on door]

Seth, this is Colter Shaw.

Mr. Shaw.

It's good to see you again.

I'm here to see Jackson Cheong.

Rebecca explained.

But I can't allow that to happen

until we've had a chance to talk
and take your measure.

I'm not sure what we'd talk about.

[Seth] Why don't we start
with something simple?

Tell me about yourself.

I like pina coladas,
getting caught in the rain.

Mr. Shaw, I'd prefer
if we didn't waste each other's time.

We already know a lot about you,
who you work with, all sorts of things.

So you got a peek at my ID
and you did some googling.

I won't be intimidated like that.

I'm not trying to intimidate you.

I'm not a violent man.

There are all types of violence.

I suppose that's true.

Tell me,

what sort of man was your father?

I'm not here to talk about that.

It's okay to talk about the past.

It's part of what we do here.

You blackmail your members
with their secrets?

Truth.

We did look you up. Your family, too.

Can't be too careful these days,

and information, it's there
if you know where to look.

Your father...

Quite an impressive man.

A scientist, then activist.

Then he fell.

Cliff near your family homestead,
if I'm not mistaken.

An accident.

At least that's what the newspaper said.

But your eyes tell me
something different.

Maybe he jumped?

Or was pushed?

Is the not knowing the source
of all that pain you're carrying?

Tell me how he came
to be fired from his job as professor.

Google didn't tell you that?

No.

Oh, you don't know why, do you?

So your mother keeps secrets from you.

Interesting.

I'd like to see Jackson.

Tell me one truth about your father,
and I will let you see Jackson.

It's that simple.

He made me the man that I am.

But it wasn't easy, was it,
growing up with a father like that?

Prepared me for people like you
who like to play games.

Your father liked to play games?

Tell me what sort of games
he liked to play.

My father didn't play games.
All was life or death with him.

Preparing you
to live in this world perhaps.

Perhaps.

I'm sorry you had to endure that.

But thank you for opening up to me.

I know that wasn't easy.

But it shows me that you might be
someone I can grow to trust.

I don't think so.

You bring that near me,
I'll shove it down your throat.

You get a burn when you witness
and hold another person's secrets.

It is an honor to share one of yours,
Colter Shaw.

Jackson will be waiting for you
in the garden.

Are you sure this is a good idea?

Jackson's one of ours.

Let Mr. Shaw talk to him and he'll see.

And if he does cause trouble?

Mr. Shaw has
a very dangerous profession.

Accidents happen.

- [Colter] Yeah.
- Are you in a good place to talk?

Not really. You talk.
I'll listen.

Is that not how we do it?

I'm serious, Bobby.
You gotta be careful on this one.

Copy that. Always am.

So, yeah, Teddi and Velma called,
gave me the scoop.

- Positive Light. Super weird.
- Mmm-hmm.

There's nothing negative
about them online.

No articles, no message boards.
Nada, man.

Doesn't seem right.

Yeah. Hell, no, it ain't.
I started digging into archives.

Mostly dead links. Stuff that's been
completely wiped from the Internet,

and I found a bunch of lawsuits,
mostly civil cases,

that either have been settled
or abruptly dropped.

Like Rebecca's charges?

Mmm-hmm. A bunch of the cases called for
a David Grassley as a witness.

He and his wife, Jana,
were both members.

It looks like David prepared the
Positive Lights' financial statements,

and he was a signer
on all their accounts.

You got an address for me?

Well, that's the thing.
David Grassley's dead.

When, how?

Hit-and-run.

Cops never found the driver.

The wife made a big stink

about how the cops were all botching
the investigation on purpose,

but she's gone quiet.

Packed up and moved
to southern Wyoming.

If she's afraid to talk,
we need to send someone there in person

to make her feel comfortable.

- Where exactly in Wyoming?
- Cheyenne.

It's less than two hours from Denver.
Do you mind...

Talking to Velma and Teddi?
I'm on it.

Jackson, I'm Colter Shaw.
Someplace we could talk in private?

I'm on gardening duty.

But if you wanna talk, you can help me.

I'm not coming home.

My parents should know that by now.

Your parents didn't even
know where you were until last night.

You can tell them I'm fine.

I'm better than fine. I'm happy.

Great. Why don't you tell them yourself?

Seth says I'm at a very a delicate stage
of my development.

I don't think that's a good idea.

When the soil is hard like that,
you just start shallow, right?

And then you can always
go deeper on your second pass.

Makes sense?

- You a gardener, too?
- Kinda.

Yeah. My dad taught me.
He believed in self-sufficiency.

You gotta be able to feed yourself.
Growing own food was part of that.

Seth wants us to be
self-sufficient, too.

To know our own strength.

My parents spent
their whole lives hovering.

If it were up to them,

I'd still be sleeping
in my childhood bedroom.

Huh.

What about all these cameras, though?
Isn't that "hovering"?

The people in my stage
need more support to stay on the path.

You've got people
who check on you, right?

Seth tell you that?

Seth trusts me
with important information.

Financial information. Is that right?

I'm not just some numbers-cruncher.

Seth makes me feel
like I can do anything I put my mind to.

Does that include
walking out the door right now?

I'm not gonna do that.

Why don't you give it a try?

Shallow, then deep.
There you go. Easier?

Your dad knew what he was doing.

He knew his way around the outdoors,
that's for sure.

He could be very charming.
A lot of charisma.

I remember as a kid,
when he would look at me,

sometimes it felt like he was
just looking right into me.

He sounds like Seth.

When Seth looks at you.

How does it make you feel?

Like I'm free.

Free of all the things
that held me back.

It sure wasn't like that with my dad.

He could be mean.

Impossible to please.

I kept trying.
I tried until the day he died.

Does that sound familiar?

Seth ever mean?

Jackson? How about Rebecca?
Is she ever mean?

They only want what's best for me.

Yeah. Listen, I gotta go.

My number. Okay?

Give me a call.
Reach out if you ever wanna talk.

You stay or go,

you decide what's best for you.

Why do you care?

You don't even know me.

I don't know you?

I used to be you.

All right, nice chatting with you.
Good luck.

When can we make time
for another session, Mr. Shaw?

- We're just getting started.
- Yep, I'll see myself out.

[phone vibrates]

I know why you're here, Colter.

Where's Jackson?

He's on a healing retreat.
You won't find him.

You kidnapped him
because he reached out to me?

No. He went voluntarily.

He gave me your number voluntarily, too.
I'm the one who texted you.

I know it's hard to believe
because you're naturally suspicious.

But I don't blame you.

Who wouldn't be
after your difficult childhood?

You live on the road
trying to run away from it,

but you can never really
leave it all behind, can you, Colter?

Where'd you take him?

I won't let you pull him back down.

But the door to a new life
is always open to you.

But should you choose a different path,

please know that we defend
our own, Colter.

We protect them from the wolves

and the darkness that you're trying
to bring to Jackson's life.

That a threat?

Oh, I think you know
exactly what I mean.

You can go.

But if it were up to me,
you'll be gone permanently.

Well, lucky for me
you're not in charge, are you?

Do you have Jackson?

[Colter] They got wind of our meet
and got him before I arrived.

He's valuable to them.
He's the new accountant.

They won't let him go
without a fight.

Just like David Grassley.

We just met with his widow Jana.

She said David found out
Seth and Rebecca

were draining
the bank accounts of their followers,

and when he tried to leave,
they killed him.

Jana told us that Seth has photos
of the hit-and-run

that killed her husband.

These people film everything.
They filmed that.

Seth has physical photos
of a murder? Where?

Jana said that the photos
were at Seth's office.

It's some instructional center.

They are so paranoid about
getting hacked,

that he keeps the files of everyone
he's ever met at that office.

Jana say where this
instructional center is?

No, they blindfolded her on the way.

She wasn't even sure
what direction it was in.

We're sure she's credible?

She was heartbroken, Colter,
and she was terrified.

She's seen the photos herself.

Seth showed her the photos
to keep her quiet.

Yeah, we both believed her.

I gotta go. I'm being followed.

[horn honks]

I couldn't help but notice
you're following me.

Positive Light send you?

Why don't I save you the trouble?

Why don't you take me
to the instructional facility

where Seth's office is?

- [grunts]
- Thanks for the lift.

Teddi, I found photos
of that dashcam video

that show the hit-and-run of
that accountant, David Grassley.

I'm sending you a pin right now,
you should have it.

Send the cops to the location.

There were arrests.
Fraud, bad checks...

Jackson.

We gotta get you out of here.
These people are dangerous.

Rebecca told me you'd come.

Yeah. Name David Grassley
mean anything to you?

He was the accountant
for Positive Light before you.

Look at that.

What is this?

They killed him.

They killed him
when he tried to leave Positive Light.

It was a hit-and-run.
The cops couldn't figure out who did it.

Somehow, Seth and Rebecca
have all the dashcam footage.

- Why do you suppose that is?
- I don't know.

This is what they do.

This is what Seth
and Rebecca Pendergast

do to their followers
when they step out of line.

I don't know a Rebecca Pendergast.

You do. Look.

It's Rebecca.
Look, she made a video, here.

Yeah.

I guess, to prove her loyalty to Seth.

- They make all of us testify.
- Yeah?

Watch.

[Rebecca] There were arrests.

Fraud, bad checks.

My father disowned me
after the second one.

He told everyone he never had children.

Jackson, we gotta go.

She told me her father
committed suicide.

I got my first burn because

she said she was sharing
a secret with me.

I told you to stay away, Colter.

You should have listened to me.

Step away from him.
Security's on its way.

So are the police.

Great. It saves us the trouble
of calling them ourselves.

This is the second time you've been
caught breaking and entering, Mr. Shaw.

This time, we will be pressing charges.

You lied to me?

Jackson, remember what I told you
about this man?

No, he's telling the truth!

- I see that now.
- Jackson.

You are shameless,

selfish, murderous,

pieces of...

Don't do it.

Jackson, you okay?

[Seth groans]

[sirens blaring]

This won't solve anything.
Your father's still going to haunt you.
