Previously onThe Equalizer...

Eight years ago,

I shot a man in front
of his children.

That's not something
you just get over.

I think she's having a panic
attack. What should I do?

Just hold on. Harry,
what's happening?

Hey! Who's there?

How's Mel doing? HARRY: I
don't think she's gonna want

to return to the
team anytime soon.

How's Robyn feel about that?

From now on, the only person

I can trust to be there

is myself.

♪ Unforgettable

♪ That's what you are

♪ Unforgettable

♪ Though near or far...

Oh, yes.

Ooh, Auntie.

Morning.

Egg white frittata's
on the stove,

orange juice in the fridge.

What is that, your
ginger scones?

My famous ginger scones. Mmm.

But they are for the Police
and Community Alliance.

I'm going with my friend Evelyn.

That's starting up again?

Yep, they've got a
new outreach program.

Nothing says "outreach"

like the smell of fresh,
homemade pastries.

You're welcome.
Mmm, thank you.

Yeah, PCA's a good program.

Builds bridges in the community.

And Lord knows, we
need those bridges

more than ever these days.

Good morning, fam.

Okay. Somebody's
in a good mood.

Yeah, any particular reason

you're feeling so happy?

Is that you and Cam? Are y'all
holding hands? Yeah. Yeah.

And is that a
heart emoji? Yeah.

We're IG official. Ah!

Instagram official?

That means they're
dating, Robyn.

I know what it means, Auntie.

But y'all are... you're dating?

Yes, Mom. Okay, and understand,

I remember everything
that you've taught me.

Okay, I'm gonna go. I got
to call, like, everyone.

Bye.

Our baby's growing up.

Auntie, do you know

Cam's date of birth,
by any chance?

You are not gonna run
a background check

on that young man. I wasn't.

Robyn. I was gonna
have Harry do it.

Ooh, Lord...

Okay, I'll leave him alone.

That's my baby. He
don't understand...

Well, he's lucky I got to go.

Love you. Oh, wait, wait.

Let-let me just wrap it up.

No, you wrapped it
in love already.

Let me just take
it with me, Auntie.

Love you. Mmm. Love you.

"Open mic night"?

"Sing. Speak. Shine."

Every Thursday.

Yeah, I'm trying something new.

Supporting up-and-coming artists

and, you know, bringing
in new business.

Yeah, sounds like
a win-win. Yeah.

I, uh, guess they're for you.

Lily asked me

to watch her daughter
Hanna last night.

And I knew something was wrong

when she never came
to pick her up.

Was that unusual? Lily asking
you to watch her daughter?

Lily's my best friend.

Being a social worker,

she gets calls at all
hours, so we do this a lot.

But the fact that she hasn't
called is really troubling.

Her phone's going
straight to voicemail.

I've been checking hospitals
and every friend I can think of.

No sign of her.

You want more lemonade, Hanna?

How about some fries?

No, thank you. My mama
likes to take me to lunch.

I'm sure she'll be here soon.

Yeah.

Well, what about the police?

Have you filed a
missing persons report?

Not yet.

Lily's in a nasty

custody battle with her ex.

And he's just the kind of jerk

who'd use this
against her in court.

I couldn't live with that.

Hanna keeps asking when
her mommy's coming back.

I'm trying to be strong, but...

Look, I know it's hard,

but I agree with you, if she
hasn't reached out to you,

then something's wrong.

I mean, I don't know what to do.

I have no one else to turn to.

You're a good friend.

And you did the right
thing coming to me.

I'll do everything in my power
to make sure Lily gets home.

Anything on Lily's phone? HARRY:
Yeah, I just tracked it, actually,

to a place called Bright
Start Transitional Home.

I know that place. It's a
halfway house for ex-cons.

Yeah, exactly. I
tried calling it,

but I was having a hard
time getting through.

What about her ex? Well, that's
the first place I looked.

Peter Evans. He hauled her in

for five emergency
custody hearings

in the last year. With
a smile that wide,

you can't trust a guy like that.

But still, he'd have to be
pretty dumb to kidnap his ex.

Or pay someone to do it.

I mean, he'd be
the prime suspect.

Yeah, no, agreed.
Plus, his, uh,

credit card and
phone records show

that he was in Florida
the last four months,

including last night.

Well, what else have you got?

I mean, a person like
Lily doesn't just vanish.

Well, this is interesting.

An incident report
was filed between Lily

and a felon named
Jesse Cervantes.

"Resident exhibited
threatening behavior,

profanity, intimidation."

And check this out:

he's housed at the same place
that I tracked the phone to,

Bright Start Transitional Home.

Looks like that's
where we start.

All right.

Where you going?
Well, you said, "we."

Come on, Rob, with
Mel out for now,

I'm your huckleberry.

Let's rock and roll. Right on.

It's not easy,
but you'll get it.

It takes time and reps.

Nah, Dad. My handles suck.

Especially my left.

Don't give up. Look,

you and Stefon move
out here in two weeks.

You and I will put in some time,

I'll have you driving the
lane like my man Brunson.

Okay, what's that face?

Nothing.

Nothing, really?

Lately, when I bring up

you two moving out here,
you go quiet on me.

A month ago, you couldn't
wait. What changed?

I don't know, Dad. I've got
things up here, you know?

Trying to make JV...

Yo, NYPD Blue.

Got a possible
location on a POI.

Units en route. Give me a sec.

Pick this up later, Ky, okay?

In the meantime,
keep practicing.

Okay.

So, who we looking at?

Sicarionamed Palma Alamilla,

as known as La Maldad.

"The Evil One," huh?
Alamilla's left a trail

of bodies from Sinaloa to L.A.

Better take her down before
that list gets any longer.

Look, uh, I heard part of your
conversation with your son.

I get it. This job can
be hard on families.

I'll work it out.
I've done it before.

This ain't eight hours in
a detective's sedan, Blue.

We're 24/7 out there.
Raising kids in this job,

it's harder than it looks.

Lily's phone shows

within 100 feet
of this building.

Yep, well, it's not in here.

Thank you.

All right, Lily left her purse
with her wallet and her keys.

Who does that?

Someone who thinks
they're coming back.

They're in here.

You wanted to see me?

Mr. Cervantes.

We're looking into the
disappearance of Lily Evans.

We heard you two
had a little run-in.

Why should I talk
to the both of you?

What do you say, Rob,
first bus back to Rikers?

Yeah. Window seat, even.

You know, if we rush the
paperwork, we can get you back

in time for dessert.
I hear they're doing

a crème brûlée with,
like, a raspberry drizzle?

Okay, all right, what
the hell do you want?

Again, we're looking for Lily.

Now, we read the report,
we know you threatened her.

Just tell the truth.

It's a lot easier to remember.

We got into it, okay?

I thought she was
singling me out.

Then I talked to my
sponsor and chilled.

I even apologized.
When was that?

Yesterday, right here.

She said my apology

was a sign of growth.

So, what happened?

Nothing. With me, anyways.

But she saw something out front
that really bugged her out.

You know what scared her?

Nah, but whatever it was,

she was shook.

Bolted out the back door.

Haven't seen her since.

No cameras.

Look at this.

Shoe prints.

Three different sets. Yeah, the
smaller ones could be Lily's.

These look like drag marks.

Drag marks start over here...

and then...

fresh tire tracks.

Okay, so, Lily runs back here,

where she's grabbed
and dragged into a car.

I mean, uh, I can check nearby
street cams and see if, uh,

these tire tracks match
a vehicle, I guess.

Hold on.

Is that a phone?

Somebody is after me and
they will not leave me alone.

Hanna, baby, I love you.

And no matter what happens
to me, know that Mama

just wanted a better
life... no! No!

What happens to me, know
that Mama just wanted

a better life for you...
A dedicated social worker

and single mother like Lily,

uh, she doesn't
just get snatched

in broad daylight for no reason.

It doesn't make
sense. Well, what else

does she have going
on in her life?

Well, whatever it
was, it was lucrative.

She made $62,000 last
year as a social worker,

but she had $87,000
in student debt.

Three months ago, she
starts paying it off

in $10,000 increments. Where'd
she get that kind of money?

Well, I've been doing a
data retrieval on her phone.

We got a hidden cache here.

Got photos in it and...

oh, and video.

Pablo, hi, I miss you.

Hi, Max.

I got that outfit
that you sent me.

I'm getting an idea how Lily

was paying off those loans.

Yeah. Running a reverse
image search on her.

Uh, yeah, here we go.

"Lily Evans is a content
provider on Follow Hub,

an adult subscription
service. "" Custom photos,

"videos, live
one-on-one video chats,

the ultimate online
girlfriend experience."

This article says
that Follow Hub models

can make up to 50 grand a month.

Well, she's got to take
care of her child somehow.

Her body, her choice.

No judgement, it just
feels exploitive, you know?

Yeah, only if you choose
to see it that way.

I mean, in this country, women
make 78 cents to a man's dollar?

That's the real exploitation.

According to her bank
records, three months ago,

she started getting
direct deposits

from something called
Momentum, Inc.,

which, apparently,
is "a digital hub

"that manages
Follow Hub profiles,

builds brands, amplifies
income," yada yada yada.

So, it's a management company
for Follow Hub personalities.

So, if they're working together,
maybe they have some idea

of what's going on with Lily.

Can you access their records?

No, it's-it's a closed system.

We'd have to install a
back door in their network.

You'd have to be
on site to do that.

Well, I guess someone's
gonna have to go in there

as a Follow Hub
content provider.

W-Why you looking at me?

Can't we, like, rock,
paper, scissors this?

♪ Yo, yo, yo

♪ Yo, check it

Tell me what you see.

Uh, yeah, looks like a...

tech startup on Viagra.

You must be "GuitarGrooveGuy."

Hey. We talked on the phone.

Sup? I'm Sebastian.

Victoria Allen. Chief Operating
Officer here at Momentum.

All right, all right.

So, I looked at your
content, Sebastian. Uh-huh.

And I liked what I saw.

Oh, right on, right on. Yeah.

I mean, I got, like, you
know, 10,000 followers,

but, you know,
I... You want more.

Yeah, yeah. Who doesn't?

I can get you to two million.

Oh, two million...

Momentum is top tier.

We have every kind of
content creator imaginable.

We have fashion freaks,
fitness gurus, MILFs,

couples, throuples,
gamers... Okay.

But so far, no guitar shredders.

Lucky me. Uh, cool. Uh,
so, like, what's your cut?

20%. 20%.

Of two million followers.

Well, I mean, I'm in. I
mean, like, what's next?

We get to work.

And you're a total
brand rebuild.

I need more sex, more chest...

Ooh. All right.

Lose few of these buttons.

Hope you like a shag.

From now on,

you're "The Ripped Shredder."

Oh. Ripped Shredder.

We just need to make
a sample brand video.

Chloe, why don't you give
our prospective client a tour

while they prepare the content
room for the test shoot?

And then come speak to
me about your metrics.

They're dropping fast.

Models chat live with
fans in the cubicles.

Videos are made in our vid pods.

And editing and
uploading is done

Oh.

And... Here you go, sweetie.

Oh, thank you.

All the free drinks
you could ever want.

Right, because, like, the more
copacetic things are here,

the less you're gonna
want to go home, right?

Exactly.

- Let me show you our fitness salon...
- Hey.

Um, you know what?

Um, I need to tune, uh, my axe.

You know, I got to do a
video or something like that.

Yeah, go ahead. I can wait.

Okay, yeah. All right.

Okay, cool, yeah, I'll just, uh,

Oh, no!

Oh, no, what a
bummer. It's okay.

Do you need my shirt? No, I got
a whole wardrobe in my locker.

That's such a bummer.
It's okay, yeah.

You can just... Oh,
man. Sorry, Chloe.

What was that? Are you okay?

All right, I'm at
Lily's cubicle.

I'm installing the back door.

And this will just
take a few minutes.

See anything of interest?

Uh, yeah, some, uh,
models live chatting.

There's one there that seems
to be, uh, sneezing by request.

Sounds like quite a party.

I meant anything
at Lily's cubicle.

Yeah, right.

Uh, okay.

Okay, all right, I found, uh,

a drawer full of what
appear to be gifts.

By, maybe, fans. There's
jewelry, there's, uh,

there's a photo of
Lily and another woman.

You recognize her? HARRY: No.

But why would she
keep it stashed

in the bottom of a drawer?

It must mean something to Lily.

There's a gift box.

Diamonds?

A photo of her daughter Hanna
playing at the playground.

And there's a note.

"Delete your account
before I get closer."

Her daughter? That
must've terrified Lily.

Yeah. This does not seem
like an opening move.

I-I'm sure we'll find more
threats leading up to this

once I can get into her
private messages, which...

we now will be able to.

What are you doing?

Oh, hey, uh, I was just, uh...

Just tuning ol' Trigger here.

There's a crew waiting
for you in POD A.

Okay.

Just thinking out loud here...

How attached are
you to the pants?

The pants? Um, you know,
these are Japanese,

so they're just kind
of hard to come by.

Right. Oh.

Namaste. Namaste.

Mm. That was amazing.

Gosh.

I feel so energized.

Girl, you did a handstand today.

I know, right?

Gosh...

I'm just so happy you
introduced me to yoga.

I've been talking
to my therapist

about how it just
helps me stay centered.

Dee, can I just say
the way you've handled

everything that
you've been through,

it's pretty incredible.

Thanks.

You know, honestly, it's
all thanks to Dr. Roszak.

She's helped me process so much.

Oh, by the way, did
you ever call her?

I did, and I made
an appointment.

And...

it's actually for today.

Yeah.

But, um...

I don't think I'm gonna go.

What? Why not?

I just don't know if I'm ready

to open up about all this...

stuff.

I just didn't come from a family

that did the therapy thing.

You know what?

Dr. R actually has a saying.

She says,

"Our past doesn't
have to be our prison.

Well, I know she would
help you so much.

It would mean the world
to me if you just...

gave it a shot.

I'm not trying to pressure you.

Whatever you decide,
I support you.

Thank you.

I'll think about it.

Captain Curtis.
Nice to meet you.

Good to finally meet you.

Now I see why you
wanted to come here.

Why didn't you tell me you
just needed a good wing-woman?

What I need is for
him to demonstrate

how to use those handcuffs.

You need to stop.

What do we have here?

Mmm.

I have to know.

Who made these delicious scones?

I did.

Well, what's your secret?

What'd you put in these?

Ginger and Tahitian rum.

Isn't that what you told me?

Yes. Exactly.

I like it.

And a touch of cardamom, right?

Yes. From Jamaica.

Mmm.

What's your name?

Evelyn Rodgers.

Everyone, do yourselves a favor,

grab one of Evelyn's
amazing scones

and then please,
take your seats.

You sit your ass down.

Just sit down.

Okay.

Hello, and welcome

to the Citizen's Police
Academy Community Outreach,

where it's about communication,

not confrontation.

For those I didn't already
meet, I am Captain Curtis,

!and I thank you
for your commitment.

Hey, any luck at
the halfway house?

Canvassed the entire
area. No one saw anything.

Hold on a second. I
might've just gotten a hit.

I, uh, I ran a print

that was on a gift box I
got out of Lily's cubicle.

Jake Marshall, 51,
insurance agent.

He's on Follow Hub
as "Beta Dude."

Okay, so what do we
know about Beta Dude?

He calls himself a "peek freak"

and his bio says, "Let me guess

what's up your dress."

You're serious?

That's just one of his hobbies.

You should see his cloud.

Voyeurism, women in peril,

bondage, lots of sick stuff.

Yeah, well, it sounds
like he's progressing.

You know what? You may
be on to something.

He was arrested
for, uh, stalking,

harassment and kidnapping
a woman in Kentucky.

Okay, so how is he
not behind bars?

The charges were thrown
out on a Miranda violation.

Spent a few months in Michigan,

where he's now a
person of interest

in the disappearance
of a sex worker.

And now he's here.

I'm going to get this
guy off the streets.

Lily could be in the
hands of a killer.

Where's Lily Evans?

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

You've been stalking her, Jake.

Found your fingerprints on
a threatening photo of her.

I don't have to talk to you.

I'm gonna place my thumb

between your collar bone
and your shoulder joint,

and press down.

You ready?

Let me know when you're feeling
more chatty. You're crazy.

Chloe! I did it for Chloe!

God... Who?

Chloe Ward.

She's a Follow Hub
model like Lily.

Chloe asked you to target Lily?

No, she's too pure.

I did it myself.

I look out for Chloe.

She's my girlfriend.

You really believe
that, don't you?

I know there's other
guys, I'm not stupid.

But it's different with me.

Yeah? How so?

No, no! No!

You know, if something
happens to Lily,

it's gonna come back on Chloe

and she might be
really mad at you.

But you're a smart guy, you
already figured that out, right?

Okay. Okay, I'll talk.

!Just leave Chloe out of this.

Go on.

I've been following Lily,
trying to scare her off.

She was taking
Chloe's followers.

Chloe was losing money.

It wasn't fair.

It was up to me to stop it.

How long have you
been following her?

Oh, just a couple days, I swear.

I think this eliminates
Jake as a suspect.

I mean, the metadata shows
that our lovelorn friend

was nowhere near Bright Start
at the time of Lily's abduction.

He didn't kidnap her.

He's just a stalker and a simp.

You know, a simp's like a guy
who does everything for a girl...

Wait, you're not about to
mansplain to me what a simp is.

Which is funny, 'cause
that's the last thing

a simp would ever
do. What's this?

Looks like Lily's
having more than just

a casual disagreement
with that woman.

And whoever this
is, this happened

just a few hours before
Lily's disappearance.

You know how I know that? See
those little numbers up there?

That's called the metadata
and what that does is...

I'm kidding.

Neighborhood Watch,
foot patrols.

All examples of important
community involvement.

Yes.

Uh, is there anything
else that we can do

besides just being watchdogs?

Communicate.

Develop a relationship
with your precinct.

But resist crossing the line.

How do we know what the line is?

Be vigilant, not vigilantes.

Like that woman out there
they call "The Equalizer."

That's crossing the line.

Excuse me. From
what I understand,

that woman has done a lot
of good for the community.

That we know of.

Policework should be
handled by police.

Not by some wannabe out there

endangering the lives
of innocent people.

If anything, we should
be thanking that woman.

She puts her life on the line

and doesn't ask for
anything in return.

By taking the law
into her own hands,

that woman is a criminal.

That's ridiculous.

What I'm trying to say

is that statistics have
proven that the police

can't be everywhere all the time

and sometimes... people
just need a little help.

This looks like a
good time for a break.

!You are the worst
wingwoman ever.

You don't seem like
you want to be here.

I don't.

But I said I would,

so here I am.

What are you hoping
to accomplish here?

Let's start with that.

Look, I'm doing okay.

I've got a very
supportive husband.

I run a business.

That's great.

It sounds like you have
things under control.

Yes.

Your life's back
to normal, then.

Yeah, I...

Obviously, I did
have a panic attack

a while ago, and, um...

I've had to step away from...

this, uh... Robyn
McCall. That's okay.

I know about what she does.

And I understand why
you'd want to stop.

I didn't say that.

I said stepping
away, temporarily.

Mel, therapy's not for everyone.

I mean, there are other
ways to cope with what

you're going through. Exactly.

Which is why I go to
a veteran's group,

where I can talk to other
people what I've been through,

who've actually experienced

what I have.

Understood.

Have you heard of Kintsugi?

Yeah, it's, uh...

Japanese, right?

It's a pottery thing,

where you take the
broken piece...

You take the broken pieces and
you glue them back together.

The word means "golden repair."

And it is a way
of looking at life

that celebrates our flaws.

It honors them as
a mark of survival.

It's kind of like a
Purple Heart for the soul.

I'm wondering if you would
try something for me.

Pottery's not my thing.

Any type of artistic expression.

Even if it's just for you.

Will you try it?

Sorry, I just have
a few questions.

Whatever you're selling,
I'm not interested.

Oh, no...

This woman. She came to
see you the other day.

Busybody, like you.

Wasting my time
with her questions.

She's missing, and you
were one of the last people

to talk to her.

So you said she was
asking questions?

About Sarah.

My daughter.

Is this your daughter Sarah
in the picture with Lily?

Yeah, that's her.
She and the busybody

worked together
at the porn site.

If you want to call that work.

So what did she want to
know about your daughter?

She said Sarah disappeared
three months ago.

Wanted to know where she was.

I told her she was
asking the wrong person.

Your daughter worked at Follow
Hub and she disappeared.

That didn't concern you?

No, she does this all the time.

Quits jobs.

Runs out on boyfriends.

She dropped out of college.

She'll be back when
she needs money.

So you have no
idea where she is.

It's better that way.

She's caused me enough trouble.

Someone at church
found one of her videos

online, my friends kicked
me out of book club.

Made it too awkward, they said.

I'm sorry.

No one deserves to
be judged like that.

Neither does Sarah.

She used to do ballet.

She was good, too, could
go right up on pointe.

But she gave up on that dream,

like she gave up on herself.

Well, I'm not giving up on her.

If I hear anything,
I'll let you know.

Thank you.

Sarah Tanner, Follow Hub model,

stopped uploading new
content three months ago.

I checked Lily's phone records,

and she's been texting and
calling her once a week

ever since. So Lily notices
Sarah stopped coming to work.

Grows concerned.

Finally gets worried enough
to go looking for her.

Then she vanishes, too.

Somebody doesn't want
Lily poking around.

You know what's crazy is

that Sarah's page is
still up, her old content

is still generating new revenue.

Profiting from a missing girl?

Who would be that heartless?

One person comes to mind.

Victoria Allen, the
woman who runs Momentum.

I get the impression profit is
just about all she cares about.

Let's check out her financials.

Wow.

She deposited $300,000

three months ago into
her personal account.

And then another 300K
just a few days ago.

Right before Lily disappeared.

Harry, she's
selling these women.

Yeah, but to whom?

And all these deposits
were made in cash,

so if we want answers...

Time for the Shredder to
make another appearance.

Right.

Harry, I'm getting another call.

Keep me posted, okay? Yep.

Marcus, what's up?

Hey, Robyn.

Can I talk to you
about something?

Always. Problem with a case?

Actually, it's about my boys.

They're having a hard time.

Let me guess.

The distance has
created some issues.

Which is why the plan was
always to move them to L.A.

And they're pushing
back on that, too?

And I get where
they're coming from.

It's no fun to pick
up and start over.

Well, it can't be great for you.

Not seeing them for so long.

Yeah, being a FaceTime father
is no good for anyone involved.

Robyn, be honest with me.

Am I asking too much of them?

You knew taking this job
would involve sacrifice.

But what you're
doing is important.

Just have to find the balance.

You mean like you?

You make it all look so easy.

It's never easy.

When Dee was young,

my work with the agency
meant a lot of travel.

And I hated every minute

I spent away from
her. I still do.

There's never enough time.

Yeah, well, we figure it
out, because we have to.

But I was lucky.

I had a safety net in Aunt Vi.

You're saying I
can't do this alone.

I'm saying you should arrange
some kind of support system

before you make this call.

And until then...

maybe this is how
it's got to be.

Maybe.

But that's a decision
for you to make.

Yo, Vic!

I'm back.

Oh, you can't just show
up without an appointment.

I'm extremely busy.
This'll just take a minute.

Is there somewhere we
can talk? What about?

My bank records?

Who are you? Tell you what.

Why don't we just focus

on the two $300,000 deposits
that you made that happen

to coincide with the
disappearance of two

of your employees.
I'm calling my lawyer.

You are? Okay, great,
what I'm gonna do

is I'm gonna call the D.A. so
your lawyer has someone fun

to argue with.

What do you want?

Money? No.

I want to know what
happened to those women.

All right.

Okay, okay.

I was approached by a fan.

He wanted access.

Right, so you obliged.

I just gave him their real names

and addresses, that's it.

Just the sort of information
that you go to great pains

to conceal from other users.

I need a name.

I don't have one.

The cash was dropped
off anonymously.

I have a username.

VIPcryptoFan529.

That's not good
enough, all right?

I need to know where the
hell these women are.

I don't know.

Really!

They could be anywhere.

Be smart.

Just do what he says.

Tell me you belong to me.

Say it.

I belong to you.

You bitch!

I will train you to be with me.

But first...

I will make you pay.

Any updates?

Sandra, I'll keep you posted.

And tell that little girl
I'm doing everything I can

to bring her mom home.

Okay, thanks.

Rob, what's up?

Lily's daughter's
been asking for her.

Where are we with finding
the identity of this fan?

I'm going through his DMs on
the Follow Hub site to Lily

and Sarah, I'm just trying to
build some kind of profile here.

Any insights? I mean, nothing

that would narrow
it down. This guy,

if he is a guy, presents as both

sort of old-fashioned chauvinist

and creepy stalker.

I mean, listen to this DM.

"I will give you the world.

"Every desire will be met.

My queen will want for nothing."

And this is where
it gets creepy.

Getscreepy?

"I will mold you into your
ideal self: your hair,

your clothes, your skin."

He wants to dress
them up like dolls.

They're playthings to him.

"Your face will be flawless.

"Your eyes,

"your lips, your nails,

"adorned with the
ideal shade, everything

tailor-made to
enhance your beauty."

Wait.

Do you think he's
having cosmetics

custom-designed for her?
Uh, sounds like it. Why?

Because there's
got to be a store

that does that sort
of thing. Checking.

All right, I got
something, yeah.

The ideal shade, lips and nails,

"tailor-made to bring
out the true you.

Everything from Crimson
Seduction to Passion Sapphire."

Send me the address.

I'm on my way.

Welcome.

May I introduce you to
our latest collections?

Uh, not today, thanks.

But you still might
be able to help me.

Have you seen this
woman in here?

Uh, not in person.

But her husband
sent us that photo.

He's not her husband.
We don't judge here.

Who is he? I need a name.

We value our clients'
privacy, so...

Your client

is holding this woman
against her will.

Which makes you an
accessory to kidnapping,

false imprisonment, maybe worse,

unless you give me that
damn name right now.

Daniel Fleming.

I need everything
you have on him.

Hurry up.

Harry, we got a name.

Daniel Fleming.

He's made millions in pump
and dump crypto scams.

He's been divorced three times,

holds black belts in
multiple martial arts

and his social media feed

looks like Toxic
Masculinity for Dummies,

although I realize
that's redundant.

You have an address for me?

Yeah, he's got a...

penthouse on the Upper East Side
and a mansion on Long Island.

He's not holding
women at a penthouse.

All right, sending
you Long Island.

Sarah, you have to help me.

Please.

Why did you have to hit him?

I told you to do what he asked.

Look.

It doesn't have to be this way.

I can, I-I can distract him.

You could come up behind him,
and we could get out of here.

Time for your lesson.

No. I promise, I'll be better.

What is that?

I've found it's an
excellent teacher.

It'll hurt a great deal.

But with pain comes
enlightenment.

No... Right, Sarah?

Fleming, put it down!
Who the hell are you?

The one who's gonna
take those girls home.

They'll leave when
I say they do.

You like to hurt
women, huh, Fleming?

Okay.

Come on.

Hurt me.

Pathetic.

Good news is the next
place you're going

is all men.

I'm getting you out of here.

It's over.

Uncuff him or I'll shoot her.

Sarah, leave Lily out of this.

It's me you want.

Yeah.

Listen, Sarah, I know
that man's in your head.

You think he controls you.

But you're stronger than he is.

Sarah, shoot her.

Sarah, I talked to your mother.

She told me you were a dancer.

That you had dreams of
being in the ballet.

The thing about
dreams, Sarah, is

even if they don't come true,

we can always think of new ones.

Sarah, I order you... No.
D-Don't listen to him.

Sarah,

you can walk away
from this whole thing.

Shoot them!

All you have to do

is put that gun down.

!FLEMING: Sarah!

Pull the trigger, Sarah!

!ROBYN: It's done.

It's over. I'm getting
you out of here.

Thank you. I'm taking
you to see Hanna.

Thank you. Yeah.

Hanna, I will never
ever go away again.

I promise.

I love you so much.

I love you, too.

!Thank you for
bringing Mommy back.

I never should have gotten
involved with all of that stuff.

Hey.

You weren't doing
anything wrong.

You just fell in with
the wrong people.

They're going away
for a long time.

How do I even
begin to thank you?

Seeing you and Hanna together
is enough thanks for me.

You're okay.

Have a good night, Captain.

Ev, I got to get out of here.

Not before you hear
this. Hear what?

I invited the good
captain out for coffee.

Oh, good for you.

No. Good for you.

He wanted to know if
you'd be coming, too.

What?

I was giving him every
kind of signal in the book,

but he kept steering
the conversation back

around to you.

The firebrand with the
controversial ideas.

And he's on his way over.

Hey, there.

Just wanted to say I enjoyed
our pleasant exchange of ideas.

Is that what that was?

It was a spirited dialogue.

That's what the Community
Alliance is all about.

You made the day.

You must have some bad days.

I'm... I'm very sorry.

Of course you do, you
are a police officer.

The point is,

there's nothing like
a little friction

to get the conversation going.

I hope to see you here again.

Oh, and I know you were the
one who made those scones.

And how do you know that?

'Cause they had a kick
like I've never tasted.

Just like you.

Yo, Blue.

Nice work out there today.

I got to admit,

when you first got
here, cop from New York,

we assumed you'd be
nothing but attitude,

all talk and no walk.

I mean,

we did a nice job of
hiding it, though.

No, you really didn't.

!Hey, uh, how'd things
go with your boys?

Work in progress.

What's up, Ky?

Hey, Dad, guess what?

I made five layups in a
row with my left hand.

See? What'd I tell you.

Practice.

Listen, Kyler, I
thought things over.

I think the best thing is
for you and Stefon to stay

in New York for now.

For real? I worked
it out with your mom,

she's gonna rearrange
her schedule some,

cut back on her travel.

You okay with this?

Change is tough.

On everyone.

But I don't want to
uproot you guys right now.

When the time is right,
we'll know, okay? Okay.

So, when you coming
for your next visit?

Soon, bud.

I'd be there today if I
could. You know that, right?

But... soon.

Hey, you want to turn in soon?

There's a, uh, bottle of
Lambrusco with your name on it.

I may also have picked you up

that Belgian chocolate
that you like.

Are you trying to woo
me, Mr. Keshegian?

I'm just trying to appreciate
you for exactly who you are.

In that case, it's a date.

Yeah.

You gonna grab the
mic? No, not yet.

I am working on
something, though.

You are? Yeah.

Then he started talking about

concerned citizens as,
as if we were vigilantes.

I mean, why hold these sessions

if all he wants us to do is
sit on the sidelines and watch?

I'll tell you why. It
makes him feel important.

You two really got into it.

Yeah, we had a back-and-forth.

I had to speak up.

I mean, he was
just standing there

in that uniform,
looking so rigid.

The size of that man's ego...

You have no idea.

Go ahead, ask her.

Okay. Just one question.

How cute is this Captain Curtis?

Cute?

What does cute have
to do with anything?

You like this guy.

What? Am I right?
Oh, she's got it bad.

You are ridiculous.

AW.

I see it.

It's Cam, I got to go.

But I love you both.
Good night. Aw.

Good night.

Enough about me. Mm.

How was your day?

Exhausting.

You talk to Dante?

I did.

It's getting...

harder.

Hard to be friends

when friends isn't what
you feel. Yeah, I suppose.

You know, Auntie,

you have given me
a lot of wisdom

through the years.

And I think it's time I
give you a little of my own.

We all have flaws.

That's what makes us human.

Okay.

Where is this going?

If you do like this
handsome captain...

don't wait too long.

Let him know before
it's too late.
