- Alec?

- Coach Luka.
Sorry, stomach cramps.

What are you doing here?

One of your tennis protégés

needs some
behavioral psych pointers?

- Nothing like that.

We have a concern about
one of the players I coach.

We need your help.
- Hi, I'm Dionne Butler.

Shanae Butler's mother.

- Oh, I saw her play
at the U.S. Open.

She's amazing.
- She's missing.

And we're worried
something terrible

might have happened to her.
- Please.

- Shanae sponsors
a youth tournament in Fairfax.

She didn't show at the
player reception this morning.

- Shanae has never been late
for an appearance

in her entire career,
at least not while my husband

was coaching her.

- David couldn't get her
above a 50 ranking.

I coached her to 23.
- You got her injured.

And now, she's missing.
- OK, let's focus on Shanae.

When was the last time
anyone saw her?

- She and I talked on
the phone yesterday.

Before we came here,
we checked Shanae's house.

Her dog, Wimby, was home alone.

There was no food.

He drank all of his water, like
he'd been left alone overnight.

And then, there's
the security cameras.

Look.

My daughter has never taken
a cab in her entire life.

- Has anyone
contacted the police?

- She hasn't been gone
long enough

for them to open a case,

and by the time they do,
we worry it may be too late.

- Luka says you're
the smartest person he knows,

and that you've found
missing people before.

Please, help us
find my daughter.

- And that right there
is what makes

Shanae Butler a rising star
in the world of tennis today.

- Shanae Butler is
a world-class athlete

at the top of her game.

What would make her vanish
without telling a soul?

Theories?
- Mental health break?

- Substance abuse.

- Uh, romantic getaway
with a secret lover?

It's possible.

- None of them explains
why she left her dog alone.

- Yes, S-H-A-N-A-E.

Yes, um, I need
to confirm my last charge.

Can you tell me the amount?

- What's she doing?

- Pretexting.

Pretending to be Shanae
to get info from her bank.

It's a trick
private investigators

and hackers use
to get sensitive data.

- Oh, yes, I did use the app.

What's the name
of the company again?

Really?
Do you have a phone number?

Thank you.
This helps a lot.

Sometimes,
the old ways are the best.

The last transaction
was to a Reggie Gordon,

taxi emoji in the description.

Ta-da.
- Thank you.

- Mm-hmm.

In the meantime, it is
homecoming weekend at Hampton,

and I am getting inducted
into the Marching Band

Circle of Honor.

So it's been real, y'all,
but I got to go.

- Would you mind staying
for a little while longer?

If Reggie is not our answer,

I may need another dose
of ta-da.

- Oh, how long?

'Cause I don't want
to miss the Step Show.

- Reggie will be here
in 10 minutes.

- I don't know
who that girl is.

Look, do you guys
want a ride or not?

- Reggie, you picked up
Shanae Butler,

and then she disappeared.

That means you were the
last person to see her alive.

You know that doesn't
look good for you, right?

- You think
I did something to her?

OK, that's crazy.

Then tell us
what happened to her.

Otherwise, we'll let the police
draw their own conclusions.

- OK, she asked me to take her
up to this parking lot

way up in the National Forest,
nothing but trees.

I left her there alive.

Look, I didn't do
anything to her.

- You expect us to believe...

[voice echoing]
That a woman asked

to be dropped off in
the middle of nowhere, alone?

[indistinct PA chatter]

I'm here to see Alec Mercer.

Is he out of surgery?

with immediate family.

- Good thing I'm his wife.

- Well, that makes two of you.

- OK, thank you.

- It's complicated, but both
Marisa and I are family.

- You made it.
- I was in Los Angeles.

I came as soon as I heard.

- Hey, the surgery went well.

He should be waking up soon.

- [grunts]

- The surgeon said
that you have

trauma-induced appendicitis.

You probably got it
from that hit

He said that's what
killed Houdini.

- For my next trick...

- Nah, your next trick
is bed rest.

You're stuck here

- His scar tissue
means that the incision

will take extra time to heal.

- Oh, you're hurting.

I assume opioids are
out of the question.

- I would love some,
but I'd love them too much.

I have lots of practice
dealing with pain.

- And you still keep
pushing your luck?

You let yourself
get kidnapped by a psycho.

- And stood in front
of an oncoming train.

- All that risky business
finally caught up with you.

- Alec let himself get
kidnapped to save me.

He only takes risks
to help other people.

- I'm sorry I worried you,

the first part of homecoming.

- Alec, homecoming
is just an event.

I can't lose my big brother.

[tender music]

- You won't.

Speaking of losing people,
any update on Shanae Butler?

- Oh, I can't with you.

- We got an alert on her
a few hours ago.

The police are looking for her.

The Rangers are combing
the National Forest.

Nothing yet.

- The police were able to clear
Shanae's cab driver at least.

Some hikers saw him
drop her off at a trailhead.

They posted a picture
on social media.

[phone rings]

That's my bandmate.

- Go, we've got him.

- Hey, no, family emergency.

- I can't help find Shanae
from this bed.

Can you please talk
to my doctor,

to see if I can
get out of here?

- First escape attempt,
right on schedule.

- Only 40% of missing hikers
are found alive.

Studies show that people

really do walk in circles
when they're lost.

- And you hate being
in the hospital.

- It's very noble of you
to want to help,

but shall we discuss
the pros and cons?

- There's nothing to discuss.

You're not leaving this room.

- The people looking for Shanae

won't understand
her psychology.

They might not ever find her.
- I'll do it.

I'll open an FBI inquiry,
work with your staff,

take point on the search.
- I can help.

I found a missing person
or two in my day.

I wanted to apologize.

At the hospital, I overstepped.

But you should know that Alec,
with his scars,

he's always one bad day

is a whole thing.

[elevator dings]

I want to be there for him.

He's certainly always
been there for me.

- As long as
your eyes are open.

- How's the professor?
- Recovering.

What have you got?

- Is this the end of Shanae
Butler's remarkable run?

- While we still can't
rule out foul play,

our main concern right now
is Shanae's mental state.

- Two years ago, Shanae
went through a bad slump.

She lost a bunch of matches
she should have easily won.

- That's when
she switched coaches.

She went from her stepfather,
David, to Luka.

She started winning again,
but then she got injured.

- Since then,
she's been struggling.

We found some alarming quotes.

- That's all on me.

I've just never been
so frustrated.

I'm just really disappointed
in myself.

- Heading into the woods
with that mindset could be bad.

- People sometimes seek
peaceful locations

to do self-harm,
like that Japanese forest

that's infamous for suicides.

[phone dings]

- Looks like the forest
that Shanae went into

is not so peaceful right now.

They're experiencing
high wind gusts.

The Forest Service has just
grounded their air assets.

- No eyes in the sky,
that could make

finding Shanae
much more difficult.

- She's been in those woods
two nights already.

Her time is running out.

- I learned wilderness survival
from MI6,

and I once spent two weeks
in the Zagros Mountains

finding a nature photographer

who accidentally crossed
into Iran.

I should get out there.

- And we can't rule out
an attack or a kidnapping.

- Let's go.
- That's great.

I want to run an experiment
that'll help your search.

I'll get my team on it.

And, listen,
thanks for the update.

- You got it.
- I'll talk to you later.

- Bye.
- [grunts]

- No, ah, ah, ah, ah.
No. Stay.

Bad Alec.

I forgot what
a terrible patient you are.

I must have blocked it out.

- It sounds like
dissociative amnesia.

- Alec-induced
dissociative amnesia.

[laughs]

[knocks]

- Professor, you said
you needed to talk with us.

- I do.
- Oh, are you kidding me?

You scheduled a meeting
in the hospital?

- Just give us a moment.
- OK.

I'll go grab a bite.

But when I come back,
you'd better be asleep.

- Uh--
[chuckles]

You must be
Shanae's stepfather.

- David.

So the police said that
that cab dropped Shanae off

at the National Forest?
- It did.

We're just not sure
why she went there.

- We don't understand it
ourselves.

- You may be able to eliminate
some possibilities.

One theory is Shanae might have

been planning to hurt herself.

- No, no,
that's not our Shanae.

- Even if she was frustrated
by her injury?

- All Shanae wants is to heal.

I mean, she puts everything
into her recovery.

She spends more time
with Monica

than anyone else in her life.

- Monica Steele is
Shanae's physiotherapist.

And she can tell you how
dedicated Shanae has been.

My daughter would never
hurt herself.

- OK, another theory,
does Shanae

ever use nature
to relieve stress,

hikes, walking on the beach?
- Not particularly.

Nae's happy place
is the tennis court.

She deals with stress
through competition.

- Yeah.

- I understand that
her competitive life

wasn't all that happy,
even before the injury.

She changed coaches.

- David did his best
coaching Nae.

I mean, he's an ex-pro himself.

And he's the one who first
discovered her potential.

But, uh--
- She hit a plateau.

So I stepped aside,
and we brought in Coach Luka.

- Which was a mistake.

I know that's your friend,

but Luka pushed Nae too hard.
And look what happened.

- You're blaming Luka
for her injury?

- It's not just us, Monica too.

She and Luka have been
pointing fingers

at each other
since it happened.

I mean, you ask me,
neither one wants

to take the career hit
of getting Nae hurt.

- I want to talk to Monica.

Can you get me
her contact info?

- Yeah, of course, right away.

- Thank you.

- I realized, mid-match,
my power game wasn't working,

so I switched to serve
and volley and wore her down.

- Any more insights?
- Yeah, a few.

Shanae's a risk taker
with a super-aggressive

playing style,
which might explain

why she'd venture
into the woods alone.

- She knows when to press and
when to dial it back though.

In interviews, she talks a lot
about adjusting on the fly.

That kind of mental flexibility
is what sets

the world's best
athletes apart.

- Adaptive thinking
could help keep her alive,

but we still need to find her.

The professor wants us
to run an experiment

on how people act
when they're lost.

- We'd need an environment
where people can get lost,

but where we can watch them
the whole time.

Damn.

- It looks like the trail's
been washed out for a while,

but the map we downloaded
isn't up to date.

- Which means Shanae wouldn't
have known about it either.

- So where would she
have gone from here?

There are a few side trails,
or she may have doubled back.

- She probably wouldn't
have doubled back actually.

Our data shows that.

- Phoebe was just
going over the results

of our maze experiment.

that when people get lost,

they often fall prey
to myopic optimization.

They tend to follow
the best looking path

in any given situation,
without backtracking

- Playing professional tennis
is like riding a motorcycle.

It's not whether
you're going to get hurt,

it's when and how bad.

- So how bad is
Shanae's injury, really?

Career ending?

She's never going to play
tennis again, is she?

[somber music]

- Surgery didn't take.

Her rotator cuff
will never fully heal.

Her tennis career is over.

- Who else knows this?

- Just her, me,
and her surgeon.

She wasn't ready
to go public yet.

- Has Shanae been despondent?

Suicidal?

- She's been
a determined badass as usual.

She decided,
just because she can't

keep playing tennis, that
doesn't mean she can't compete.

- She found a new sport.

- Nae's shoulder
doesn't limit her running.

She's got great speed,
impeccable stamina,

so she's been training
as a marathon runner.

- And how's that going?

- It's, uh--
it's a work in progress.

She keeps bonking.

Human body stores about
1,800 calories of glycogen.

Running a mile
burns 100 calories.

A marathon is 26.2 miles.

- So at 18 miles, the body's
emergency stores are gone.

- She can't get past 18 miles,
which sucks because otherwise,

her times are world-class.

- So Shanae hits a wall
with tennis,

finds another sport,
hits another wall there.

How far will Shanae go
to keep competing?

- A Ulysses pact,
that's a new one.

- It's a deal someone strikes
with themselves

to achieve a goal,
engineering the situation

so they have no choice
but to succeed.

- Like Ulysses tying himself
to his ship's mast

so he can listen to
the siren's tempting song

without drowning himself
trying to reach them.

- Or a dieter getting rid
of all the sweets

so he can't snack.
- Exactly.

In Shanae's case,
she had Reggie drop her off

26.2 miles, by trail,
from her home

in an area with
terrible cell reception

and almost no roads.

She wanted to complete
a marathon,

so she made running one
her only option.

- So when she found
her path washed out,

she would have had
to improvise.

- I used a running app
to map her possible routes,

same as she would have.

Is there a path that leads
downhill from where you are?

down into a ravine.

He's the only other person
who knows.

♪

- Thank you.

Thank you for sharing that.

- Alec calls it
my secret origin story.

I promised myself that
I would change my life.

I went back to school.
I studied my ass off.

And then, I decided
I would use my attraction

to danger for good,
so I joined the FBI.

- And that's why
you hate the woods.

- Mm, that is why
I hate the woods.

You should get some sleep.

I'll take first watch.

- No, I--
I got this.

- Marisa, Shanae, wake up.

We've got to go.

- I know, fire, winds.

But we got to get people
looking for them again.

What part of being chased
by a madman with a gun

don't you understand?

[knocking]

- I'd ask how you're doing,

but the answer
seems pretty obvious.

- A girl is lost in the woods,
and somebody is trying

to kill her and my friends,

and there's nothing
I can do about it.

- You can't do anything?

Or already done all you can?

Ah, it's the second one,

which means there's nothing
left to do but hope

or pray, whichever works.

- You and I are priests
from two different religions.

Yours is about faith.

Mine is about using knowledge

to make the world
a better place.

So I don't want to pray.

I want to be out there helping.

- Well, from what I hear,
you're in a hospital

because you ignored your body
until it was almost too late.

Now, everyone knows the line,
"Love thy neighbor as thyself."

But we can't help others
if we don't help ourselves.

I'll leave you to your hope.

Excuse me.

- Hmm.

- Professor, there's someone
you need to meet.

This is Hank Curty.

- If you're here,
you're obviously

not the one
hunting down Shanae.

So who are you and why
are you following her?

- I'm an
insurance investigator.

- Hank's firm issued
a huge life insurance policy

for Shanae a few years ago.
- $12 million.

But the value of
her policy is based on

her potential
future earnings

and requires regular physicals.

- And Shanae
skipped her last one.

- Yeah, you know, it's funny.

I usually look into people
who claim

that they are hurt
or sick and faking it,

but this time around,
it's the opposite.

- Your company thinks
she might be more hurt

than she's letting on?

- Well, if her tennis career
is over,

that would be grounds
to invalidate her policy.

I mean, jury's still out,

but it's not looking
too good for her.

- Not to be callous,
but what would happen

if she died before
you filed your report?

- Policy would pay out.

Her beneficiaries
would get the $12 mil.

OK.

play tennis again.

But you knew that, right?

But Nae travels a lot,

still comes to our house.

We got some of
her medical paperwork.

David said it didn't look good.

- He's looking for Shanae.

He went to the woods
right after we talked with you.

He said he was able
to use her workout app

to get a rough location.
Didn't he tell you?

♪

- Dionne, I'm going to ask you
some questions.

You need to be honest
with me and with yourself.

David discovered Shanae,

and he devoted
his life to her career.

He must have had a huge
emotional investment in her.

- He did. He does.

- When he coached Shanae
and she won,

I'm guessing he felt elated,
as if he'd won himself.

Right?
- Of course.

- What happened when she lost?
- He doesn't take losses well.

He'd get upset,
push Shanae to be better.

- Is that why she fired him?

- We-- we never said
that she fired him.

Did Luka tell you that?
- He didn't have to.

When David was talking
about changing coaches

being his decision,
he made sure to look me

right in the eye.
- She hit a plateau.

So I stepped aside,
and we brought in Coach Luka.

- Now, we think
that conveys honesty,

but about 2/3 of people

make deliberate eye contact
when they lie.

So why did Shanae fire him?

- You're right.

His temper was
a big part of it.

- It's been almost two years.

Is David still angry?

- Sometimes.

He hasn't been able to find
a new coaching job.

And he stresses a lot
about money, our future.

- And he gets $12 million
if she dies.

Dionne, the last time
I talked to the people

that were searching for Shanae,
somebody was shooting at her,

and it looks to me like
there's only one person

who has the motive to do that.

David had one fatal flaw.

He fought for every point,

even when he was behind
on the set.

He's a narcissist who
can't admit when he's losing.

he will charge the net,
