TV-Serie: Without a Trace - 4x22
They're going to the playoffs.
Easy to say when the season just started, but it's not going to be easy for our Mets to share the mantle of loserdom.
I don't care how much money they spent in the off season.
Ten bucks says I'm right.
You're on.
Hey, Ted.
Hey, Joe.
Is Dylan ready to go?
Go?
To the game.
Mets versus Braves.
Oh, yeah, I'm sorry.
I completely forgot.
Dylan can't go.
Really?
Yeah, yeah.
I'll, uh, pay for the tickets.
Ted, is everything all right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're just having a family meeting.
You guys go, have a good time.
We'll all go to Shea later in the season.
Okay?
Ted?
Dylan?
Nicole?
Anybody home?
Thank you so much, I appreciate that.
Quite a party.
I don't want to be invited to this one.
Ted, Dylan and Nicole Jordano.
The dad's sister came by this morning.
She thought they were home because the car was here.
He wasn't here, neither were the kids.
How about the mother?
She died three months ago.
How?
Complications from lupus.
Still smells like gunpowder.
So the neighbors didn't hear anything?
One was here last night.
He says the father was acting a little strange.
What do you think, home invasion?
Possible, but why would they take everyone with them.
I don't know.
Cops check the garbage?
It was picked up this morning, so I sent a unit to the dump.
Right.
Three people, three times the workload.
Better cancel that rumba lesson.
Somebody didn't walk out of here on their own.

www.
forom.
com It was just like you saw it downstairs, and I didn't know what else to do, so I left.
And I called the police from my cell phone.
You did the right thing.
Okay, but...
What about all that blood?
I mean, is it theirs?
'Cause I don't understand what could have happened to them.
And...
Where did you and your brother grow up?
Passaic.
Home of the Hensen Ice Cream Palace.
Yeah, Ted and I used to go there every day in the summer.
Best double mint chocolate.
How's Ted been recently?
How's he been?
Since his wife died.
I mean, not good.
But it started before that, 'cause she couldn't work anymore, and the bills were just piling up.
And he just loved her so much.
And I think he just didn't know what to do.
Hey, Ted.
Hey.
Had the afternoon off, so I thought I'd come by and hang with Dylan when he gets out of school.
That's nice.
I didn't think you'd be home.
I got fired...
from the best remodel job I've had in a long time.
Sorry.
What happened?
Well, let's see.
My wife died.
And then everything pretty much went to hell after that.
I meant at work.
What does it matter?
I mean, I got fired, and I still got to figure out...
Hey, hey, hey.
Nicole and Dylan are going to be home soon.
Yeah, so what?
So with everything they've been through, I don't think they need to see you like this.
Yeah.
With everything they've been through.
Ted was always a hothead when we were growing up, but Olivia calmed him down.
I mean, I haven't seen him like that in a really long time.
He drinks a lot?
He didn't used to.
Is it possible that your brother would harm his kids?
What?
Is there a problem?
He bought a gun.
When?
Three weeks ago.
Did he say what for?
He didn't tell me about it, Dylan did.
Ted told him it was for protection, 'cause the neighborhood had gotten so bad.
It's downstairs in the front hall closet.
I'm sure it's still down there.
We already searched the house, we didn't find a gun.
He loves them, I know he does.
Okay.
All right.
Nicole's phone was deactivated two months ago.
So Ted is the only one with a working cell phone.
But they didn't find it in the house.
Were they able to get a signal?
Uh, it stopped pinging at 2:00 a.
m.
Well, the sister's right.
This guy's well underwater.
90 days behind on his credit cards, a month behind on his mortgage.
You know, maybe getting fired pushed him over the edge- shot the kids, dumped the bodies.
Wouldn't be the first time it's happened.
Yeah, but why did he have to break into his house to do it?
Kids could have locked him out trying to protect themselves.
All right, here we go.
A check from, let's see, six weeks ago. "
Deposit for kitchen. "
This could be the guy that fired him.
Maybe he can help us out.
Yeah.
I hated to do it.
Things just weren't working out.
Was he a bad carpenter?
Was he drinking on the job?
What was the deal?
No, nothing like that.
Mr.
Levine, what happened to your finger?
You get into a little fight?
No.
What happened?
Listen, I'd like to help, but I don't need any trouble.
Mr.
Levine, you tell me what I need to know, and I promise you that nobody finds out we had this conversation.
Or I arrest you for impeding a federal investigation, and then everybody finds out that we had this conversation.
It's completely up to you.
You know, Ted was doing a good job.
He just brought around the wrong kind of people.
And I promise I'll get it to you.
You've been saying that for a week.
I got to make my mortgage payments.
Yeah?
I really don't care about your mortgage payments.
Hey, what the hell is going on here?
Mind your business!
Leave him alone.
Johnny, he's got nothing to do with this!
Shut up.
Shut up!
Want me to leave people alone?
You should pay me the money you owe me.
Come by the house in two days, all right?
I'll give you some money.
Not some money, a lot of money.
I will, I promise.
Consider this a pass.
I know what happened to Ted's wife...
but I got my own family to worry about.
Did this Johnny have a last name?
I'm guessing "loan shark. "
Thank you.
Initial blood screen from the house is back.
It's O negative.
You know, I think the whole family's O negative.
Let me check that out.
Uh...
yup, O negative.
Mm.
So we still don't know who got shot.
All right, meet Johnny. "
lanis Petoni. "
Johnny Petoni it is.
Friends in vice put you on his trail?
Correct, and they know him quite well.
Oh, we got seven arrests, no convictions.
All of his clients had a change of heart and decided not to prosecute.
This is the thing.
I'm not sure what a loan shark is going to get by taking out an entire family.
I guess breaking a guy's finger didn't get his point across.
I have no idea where Mr.
Jordano is.
Well, we have two witnesses that put your car outside his home two days before his disappearance.
We're friends.
Pretty tight friends.
You cashed his dead wife's disability check.
That is your signature, isn't it?
We're very good friends.
Look, I know he needed money, you gave it to him- I don't care.
That's not why you're here.
There's no upside to me killing the goose, right?
It's not me you should be looking at.
Then who should we be looking for?
Daughter's boyfriend.
He was at the house when I went by.
Things got a little ugly.
Listen, Johnny, I'm sorry, I only got 900 bucks, okay?
When you gonna have the rest?
Well, I...
Nobody's supposed to be home.
What's going on?!
Hey!
Get off of my daughter!
Get off!
Ah!
Dad!
Dad!
Who the hell are you?
Get off of her!
Stop it!
You do this in my house?
Dad, get the hell out of my room!
Holy...
Dad, just...
No!
You don't...
Dad!
Is that your best shot?
You get out.
Get out of my house!
Dad...
Get out of it right now!
This isn't over.
Why can't you just leave me alone?
You wouldn't be like this if your mother was still alive.
Yeah, well, if only you two could trade places.
I didn't need to stay around and watch the fireworks, when he gave me my 900 bucks, I left.
That's a nice story, but that makes him a teenager, not somebody who would take an entire family out.
Kid didn't leave, exactly.
What do you mean?
I saw him heading back to the house.
Hey, hey, hey.
What you got there, huh?
Nothing.
Nothing?
A gun?
That guy owes me money.
You go in there, you pop him, makes it hard for him to pay me back, right?
You do not want to piss me off.
Get out of here.
He must have come back later.
So, I don't suppose you told Ted the kid was a threat to him, huh?.
No.
I didn't think the kid was stupid enough not to listen to me.
Go figure.
Yeah, go figure.
I know who Kevin is.
Nicole and Ted had been fighting so much, when she confided in me, I thought I'd better keep it to myself or she'd have nobody to talk to.
Are you aware that he's almost 19?
No.
How long have they been dating?
About two months.
But she swore they weren't sexually active.
She might have been lying about that.
Okay, so, um, what else can you tell us about him?
They met at Catholic school last year.
I know he works part time at a small appliance repair place on Marston.
So, um, what were Ted and Nicole fighting about?
Um, how short her skirts were, the B-minus on a Spanish test, everything.
Do you think Kevin did something to them?
We're not sure.
What do you think?
I don't know.
I'm sorry, I don't know.
Not much love lost between the father and the daughter.
So if the boyfriend came back, maybe she helped him take out the old man and they left with the brother.
Well, before her cell phone was disconnected, almost every call Nicole made was to Kevin Burke.
How far back?
Almost five months.
The sister said two months.
Well, I understand why she didn't want to talk about him.
This guy's had a tickler on his juvie file since he was 15.
He still lives at home with his parents.
They don't have a clue where he is, so I put an APB out on the car and we're watching his cell and pager.
Okay, since they met at school, maybe somebody over there is worth talking to.
Okay, let's check it out.
Yeah, I know Kevin.
We kicked him out two months before graduation last spring for smoking a joint in the gymnasium- during gym class.
So he wanted to get kicked out.
I guess Catholic school washis parents' last ditch effort to keep him out of jail.
I'm surprised that Nicole was mixed up with him.
I thought she was doing remarkably well, considering.
Much brother than her brother.
How so?
Before his mother died, Dylan was the perfect kid- smart, polite...
just enough sass to be interesting.
But his grades are falling and he just seems angry all the time.
What's all this about?
Well, they're all missing.
Damn.
I saw him yesterday morning.
I thought he was acting out, but it must have been something else.
Is someone in there?
Father Veroci won't be here until tomorrow.
Dylan.
What are you doing?
Nothing.
Then why aren't you in class?
I don't have my uniform shirt.
I can get you another shirt, but what happened to yours?
Come on.
Let's go to my office and get you something to wear.
No.
School started almost an hour ago.
You have already missed homeroom.
Look, I don't need your stupid shirt!
I'm not going to class.
I don't know what's going on with you, but I have had about enough.
You and I are going to go call your father and get him down here.
No!
I looked for him but he wasn't around, so I called Ted and left him a message.
Any idea why he'd be hiding in the confessional?
I wish I knew.
Sister, I'd like to talk to some of Dylan's friends, if that's all right with you.
Yeah, I'll pull them out of class right now.
Thank you.
Okay, thanks, bye.
Sam, we've got to head down to I-One.
State troopers just picked up Kevin Burke for speeding.
They're bringing him in.
Was any of the family with him?
No.
Wonder where he was headed in such a hurry.
I wasn't going anywhere.
I just like to drive fast.
We have a witness who saw you at Ted's house with a gun.
Who?
Hey, we ask the questions here.
Look, whoever he is, he's lying, okay?
Why did Nicole call you last night?
I thought she wanted to hook up but then she showed and got all crazy.
I just needed to talk to you.
We could have done that on the phone.
I snuck out because I wanted to tell you face to face that I won't be able to see you anymore.
Look, we've got a good thing going here, Nick.
Don't let your dad screw it up, all right?
It's not about my dad.
There's just some stuff going on with my family, and I need some time.
What's going on, Nick?
I'm sorry about the other night, I didn't mean to get you in trouble.
No, no, it's not about you.
Do you have a tissue or, um, or some water maybe?
Um...
no, I-I'm sorry.
But the gas station's open.
I'll go get you some water, okay?
She was gone when I got back.
I didn't realize she'd taken it until the next day.
But by then they were already gone.
Why do you have a gun in your glove compartment?
It's my dad's.
It's where he keeps it.
Nicole knew that.
What was Nicole so upset about?
She wasn't upset.
She just wanted to steal the gun.
So where were you last night?
Nicole turned me down, so, uh...
I went to see another friend.
Why don't you write down this other friend's name and number for us?
I don't know where he is.
Really?
'Cause we heard you guys walk to school together every day.
Almost every day.
Did you walk to school yesterday?
No.
Now, if you know something, even if it seems really small, you need to tell us, all right?
I was waiting for him, like I always do.
Hey.
Your shirt.
Dylan!
Todd, did Dylan look hurt in any way?
I didn't see anything.
Any idea where he came from?
He didn't come to school, so I didn't get to ask him.
Is he gonna be ok?
So we found the shirt in the garbage can, right where the kid said it would be.
That's a spray pattern.
Based on the timeline, there's no way the blood on that shirt would match the blood in the house.
What violent crimes were reported in the neighborhood that morning?
Got 'em right here.
There were three.
Uh...
Okay.
A woman was mugged at gunpoint, a man was shot and killed in an alley and a homeless guy was stabbed by a gang of kids.
I would say that the shooting is our best bet.
Yeah.
I'm going to look in to it.
I'm going to go follow up with Mack.
All right.
What's up?
Well, I was going through Dylan Jordano's computer.
Mostly papers, a few provocative girlie photos, uh, but I did find this.
Okay, high score was recorded yesterday at 3:50 p.
m.
Todd lied.
He did see Dylan later that day.
Yep.
Okay.
Good work, man.
Thanks.
You're Todd C.
right?
Look, we know you saw him after school.
No.
No?
We recovered this at your house.
My guess is that the blood here matches the blood on Dylan's shirt.
Look, Todd, we're not mad at you for lying.
I lie sometimes.
He lies all the time.
Constantly.
Look, if Dylan were here, he would help you.
But he's not here.
You want them to get me, too?
Who's "them"?
Start at the beginning.
We didn't want to get to school too soon.
We were just cruising through Glenside.
It's so boring.
Guy, whale, guy, whale, whale, whale, whale.
Why can't we read The Runaways?
It's a comic book.
It's a graphic novel.
Nerd.
Come on, we're going to be late.
It'll be faster if we cut through here.
Hey, check it out.
Dylan was hiding.
There's a place where we hang out.
We threw away his shirt and decided to go to school, but...
The shooter, did he see you?
I- I don't think so.
But he definitely saw Dylan?
Todd, do you think you could describe this guy?
I couldn't really see him clearly, just Dylan and the other man.
The man on the ground.
Okay.
All right, Todd, listen, your mom's here.
I'm going to go get her for you, okay?
You did great.
So did anybody call the school yesterday asking about Dylan?
I was expecting a call from his father but I never heard from him.
Or any of the other students who were absent?
I would never give out that information.
No, of course you wouldn't.
I'm just trying to figure out if there was someone who seemed out of place or lost, that's all.
There was a man here with his son.
He wanted information on the school.
Sorry to come in without an appointment.
No problem.
How can I help you?
Stephen goes to Vanderbilt Elementary and I'm just not sure it's working out for him.
I was wondering if you could tell me about St.
Valerians.
Of course.
Here you go.
And...
this.
We're K-12.
Two classes of 20, K through Sixth.
I'm sorry, do you have a yearbook or something I could look at while you're going through things?
Just so I can get a sense of the school.
Sure.
Here we go.
Thanks.
You were saying?
Our middle school and our high school each have about 60 kids per grade.
I think you'll find that we're a very diverse community- and smart.
80% of our seniors attend college and most of the rest attend vocational or technical schools.
What about religious instruction?
He was here for about ten minutes.
He took our materials and left.
Did I do something wrong?
No, no, not at all.
This yearbook, did he happen to take that with him as well?
No, no, it's here.
Wait, you know, it's better if we don't touch it I'm going to have to check it for fingerprints.
Thank you.
This is Costos Velo.
He runs with a gang of Albanians.
PD sent over all of their files.
They're tracking 30 of these guys.
And guess who I found.
Our loan shark.
Ah, he's hit again.
I know where you're going with this.
The loan shark gave us Kevin to send us in the wrong direction, but does Kevin's alibi check out?
Yes, it does.
We cut him loose.
Okay, and what with the family's DNA not matching the blood in the house, maybe Costos found them and he got shot?
Okay, there was a Cadillac stolen last night from a construction site where Ted has done some work.
Now, it is a mile from the Jordano house.
Sounds to me like the Jordano family is on the run.
Who are we looking for?
Sadik Marku.
Which one is he?
The tall blond one.
I'll talk to him.
What and I've got to talk to the other seven guys?
Hey, you talk faster than I do.
Makes sense.
There's seven of them.
You can handle it.
Fellas...
Why don't you go wash my car?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm sorry, Mister, uh...
Malone.
What can I do for you?
Where's the Jordano family?
Oh, I don't know.
I probably wouldn't tell you if I did.
The Jordano kid saw your guy kill that man in the alley.
Really?
I also know that you put a hit out on that kid.
You're full of a lot of accusations, Mr.
Malone.
But I'm guessing...
not a lot of proof.
Otherwise we wouldn't be talking like this, right?
I'm just warning you.
You stay away from that family.
You give me too much credit.
Things happen.
People get hit by buses, bit by spiders.
They run, they fall down.
How is any of this my doing?
Now, I've got somewhere to be.
You get anything?
Yeah, a deal on a plasma.
How about you?
Nothing.
So what are you thinking?
I think this guy would kill the Jordano family if they were standing on a room Yeah.
Here it is.
Okay, look at this.
There were a bunch of messages to Kevin's pager right after he left custody.
All right, the first one, "I miss you. "
Call me. "
Second one, "Where are you?"
But this last one...
Listen to this. "
The cops think I killed you.
You've got to help me. "
Why would she send that to Kevin?
I have no idea.
That's why I'm asking you.
What was the pattern before the family went missing?
Over the last couple of months, two to three pages a week.
Usually early evening.
The messages are not to Kevin, they're from Kevin.
He must have given Nicole his pager after her cell phone was deactivated.
Okay, did she answer the page?
Let's see.
He got a call on his cell ten minutes after last page, so, just waiting for the routing information.
Well, she's still alive.
But Kevin's not in trouble with the cops anymore, so why's he still trying to find her?
Hey, Kevin.
Keep your hands where I can see them.
Get over here.
We know Nicole called you from a pay phone in Hurley.
Where is she?
I don't know.
Where did you get this, huh?
Sold my parent's fridge.
Yeah, and I won the lottery.
Turn around.
Whoa.
What happened?
Lift up your shirt.
Lift it up.
Ooh!
Is that Marku's work?
No.
All right, I want you to cut the crap right now.
I think you got this cash for selling out the Jordanos.
Kevin, he will kill them.
Look, after you guys let me go, Marku's guys picked me up.
They said I had to find Nicole and her family.
I didn't know what to do, so I paged her.
Nicole?
Hi, Kevin.
Baby, you okay?
I'm going to throw the pager away.
I forgot I had it.
You've got to leave us alone.
Look, the cops think I killed you.
Just tell me where you are so I can get things squared up.
I can't.
Look, I'm screwed here, Nick.
You got to help me.
Look, I just spent the morning at my mother's grave, and I'm probably never going to get to come back, so don't tell me what I have to do.
I'm sorry.
Look, we're, um...
we're headed to Montreal.
I'll have my dad call the cops once we're safe, and he'll tell them you didn't do anything.
Okay.
Look, are you sure you don't want me to come help you?
'Cause I will.
Good-bye, Kevin.
Bye, Nicole.
They gave me that money when they picked me up.
I tried to give it back, but they said they were going to kill me if I didn't tell them.
Where's her mom buried?
Red Hook.
Kevin, how long ago did you tell Marku this?
About an hour ago.
We got to get moving.
Let's go.
Okay.
All right.
Thanks.
That was Elena.
Her and Viv struck out on Route 117.
The Jordano's weren't there.
What about the border crossings?
RCMP's got them covered.
What color is that car they stole?
It was that color right there.
You see anyone?
Nope.
Mr.
Jordano, it's the FBI!
How do I know that?
I'm going to throw you my badge, all right?
Here it comes.
Throw your weapon out!
Put your weapon on the ground now!
All right, all right.
On the ground.
All right.
Where are your kids?
They're over there.
Jack, we got company.
Get behind the car.
Kids, get back in there!
Kids, stay where you are!
Come on.
Let's get out of here.
Kids, come on.
So you got Sister Louise's message saying that Dylan left school.
Yeah.
Where are my kids?
They're downstairs in the break room waiting for dinner.
Right.
Right.
You already told me that.
So?
After you got the message, you went straight home.
Yeah.
And then Dylan told me everything he'd seen.
And then he fell.
He was all bloody.
The other guy- he saw me.
I didn't know what to do, so I ran.
But I dropped my jacket.
Your school jacket?
You told me not to go to Glenside, but I did.
I shouldn't have, Dad.
It's okay, Dylan.
He chased after me, Dad.
What if he finds me?
I'm not going to let him find you.
I'm so sorry.
Listen, we're going to take care of this, okay?
Don't worry.
I'm going to figure this out.
When your son told you what had happened, why didn't you contact the police?
The police?
The police would have let those guys right to us.
So what was your plan, Mr.
Jordano?
To lay low.
If they didn't find us in a week or so, I just figured everything would be fine.
I think the both of you should go to bed.
I won't be able to sleep.
Then play a video game with your brother.
This is all my fault.
No, Dylan.
It's my fault.
For not being there when you needed me.
Dad's right.
We should play something.
Cards, maybe?
Texas Hold 'Em?
Go upstairs, be quiet.
Go.
Is he dead?
Where did that come from?
I thought we might need it.
Let go.
Go look after your brother.
Go, okay?
I took my credit cards and all the cash that we had in the house, and we left.
And you didn't get rid of the body?
No.
Marku must have sent in the cleaners.
What do we do now?
I've talked to the U.S.
Attorney.
He said that he'll relocate your family in exchange for you and your son's testimony.
If we do that, they won't stop till they find us.
They won't stop till we're all dead.
I understand your concerns, Mr.
Jordano.
But the federal marshals will do everything they can to protect you.
Will my kids be safe?
I know it's not the most attractive option, but it's all I can offer you right now.
We ordered Chinese, Dad.
You want to come eat with us?
Yeah.
You bet.
Let's go.
Can you hear me now?
Yo.
Yo!
Hello?
Classy.
What do you want?
The Jordanos are going to testify.
And you're going to leave them alone.
Chances are that murder's never gonna come back to you.
You think, because there are rules that I have to follow, that you don't have to fear me.
I don't care about the rules.
You will leave the Jordano family alone...
or I will put a bullet in your brain with this gun.
We can save time and do it now.
You'll have to excuse me...
...but there's somewhere I got to be.
Easy to say when the season just started, but it's not going to be easy for our Mets to share the mantle of loserdom.
I don't care how much money they spent in the off season.
Ten bucks says I'm right.
You're on.
Hey, Ted.
Hey, Joe.
Is Dylan ready to go?
Go?
To the game.
Mets versus Braves.
Oh, yeah, I'm sorry.
I completely forgot.
Dylan can't go.
Really?
Yeah, yeah.
I'll, uh, pay for the tickets.
Ted, is everything all right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're just having a family meeting.
You guys go, have a good time.
We'll all go to Shea later in the season.
Okay?
Ted?
Dylan?
Nicole?
Anybody home?
Thank you so much, I appreciate that.
Quite a party.
I don't want to be invited to this one.
Ted, Dylan and Nicole Jordano.
The dad's sister came by this morning.
She thought they were home because the car was here.
He wasn't here, neither were the kids.
How about the mother?
She died three months ago.
How?
Complications from lupus.
Still smells like gunpowder.
So the neighbors didn't hear anything?
One was here last night.
He says the father was acting a little strange.
What do you think, home invasion?
Possible, but why would they take everyone with them.
I don't know.
Cops check the garbage?
It was picked up this morning, so I sent a unit to the dump.
Right.
Three people, three times the workload.
Better cancel that rumba lesson.
Somebody didn't walk out of here on their own.

www.
forom.
com It was just like you saw it downstairs, and I didn't know what else to do, so I left.
And I called the police from my cell phone.
You did the right thing.
Okay, but...
What about all that blood?
I mean, is it theirs?
'Cause I don't understand what could have happened to them.
And...
Where did you and your brother grow up?
Passaic.
Home of the Hensen Ice Cream Palace.
Yeah, Ted and I used to go there every day in the summer.
Best double mint chocolate.
How's Ted been recently?
How's he been?
Since his wife died.
I mean, not good.
But it started before that, 'cause she couldn't work anymore, and the bills were just piling up.
And he just loved her so much.
And I think he just didn't know what to do.
Hey, Ted.
Hey.
Had the afternoon off, so I thought I'd come by and hang with Dylan when he gets out of school.
That's nice.
I didn't think you'd be home.
I got fired...
from the best remodel job I've had in a long time.
Sorry.
What happened?
Well, let's see.
My wife died.
And then everything pretty much went to hell after that.
I meant at work.
What does it matter?
I mean, I got fired, and I still got to figure out...
Hey, hey, hey.
Nicole and Dylan are going to be home soon.
Yeah, so what?
So with everything they've been through, I don't think they need to see you like this.
Yeah.
With everything they've been through.
Ted was always a hothead when we were growing up, but Olivia calmed him down.
I mean, I haven't seen him like that in a really long time.
He drinks a lot?
He didn't used to.
Is it possible that your brother would harm his kids?
What?
Is there a problem?
He bought a gun.
When?
Three weeks ago.
Did he say what for?
He didn't tell me about it, Dylan did.
Ted told him it was for protection, 'cause the neighborhood had gotten so bad.
It's downstairs in the front hall closet.
I'm sure it's still down there.
We already searched the house, we didn't find a gun.
He loves them, I know he does.
Okay.
All right.
Nicole's phone was deactivated two months ago.
So Ted is the only one with a working cell phone.
But they didn't find it in the house.
Were they able to get a signal?
Uh, it stopped pinging at 2:00 a.
m.
Well, the sister's right.
This guy's well underwater.
90 days behind on his credit cards, a month behind on his mortgage.
You know, maybe getting fired pushed him over the edge- shot the kids, dumped the bodies.
Wouldn't be the first time it's happened.
Yeah, but why did he have to break into his house to do it?
Kids could have locked him out trying to protect themselves.
All right, here we go.
A check from, let's see, six weeks ago. "
Deposit for kitchen. "
This could be the guy that fired him.
Maybe he can help us out.
Yeah.
I hated to do it.
Things just weren't working out.
Was he a bad carpenter?
Was he drinking on the job?
What was the deal?
No, nothing like that.
Mr.
Levine, what happened to your finger?
You get into a little fight?
No.
What happened?
Listen, I'd like to help, but I don't need any trouble.
Mr.
Levine, you tell me what I need to know, and I promise you that nobody finds out we had this conversation.
Or I arrest you for impeding a federal investigation, and then everybody finds out that we had this conversation.
It's completely up to you.
You know, Ted was doing a good job.
He just brought around the wrong kind of people.
And I promise I'll get it to you.
You've been saying that for a week.
I got to make my mortgage payments.
Yeah?
I really don't care about your mortgage payments.
Hey, what the hell is going on here?
Mind your business!
Leave him alone.
Johnny, he's got nothing to do with this!
Shut up.
Shut up!
Want me to leave people alone?
You should pay me the money you owe me.
Come by the house in two days, all right?
I'll give you some money.
Not some money, a lot of money.
I will, I promise.
Consider this a pass.
I know what happened to Ted's wife...
but I got my own family to worry about.
Did this Johnny have a last name?
I'm guessing "loan shark. "
Thank you.
Initial blood screen from the house is back.
It's O negative.
You know, I think the whole family's O negative.
Let me check that out.
Uh...
yup, O negative.
Mm.
So we still don't know who got shot.
All right, meet Johnny. "
lanis Petoni. "
Johnny Petoni it is.
Friends in vice put you on his trail?
Correct, and they know him quite well.
Oh, we got seven arrests, no convictions.
All of his clients had a change of heart and decided not to prosecute.
This is the thing.
I'm not sure what a loan shark is going to get by taking out an entire family.
I guess breaking a guy's finger didn't get his point across.
I have no idea where Mr.
Jordano is.
Well, we have two witnesses that put your car outside his home two days before his disappearance.
We're friends.
Pretty tight friends.
You cashed his dead wife's disability check.
That is your signature, isn't it?
We're very good friends.
Look, I know he needed money, you gave it to him- I don't care.
That's not why you're here.
There's no upside to me killing the goose, right?
It's not me you should be looking at.
Then who should we be looking for?
Daughter's boyfriend.
He was at the house when I went by.
Things got a little ugly.
Listen, Johnny, I'm sorry, I only got 900 bucks, okay?
When you gonna have the rest?
Well, I...
Nobody's supposed to be home.
What's going on?!
Hey!
Get off of my daughter!
Get off!
Ah!
Dad!
Dad!
Who the hell are you?
Get off of her!
Stop it!
You do this in my house?
Dad, get the hell out of my room!
Holy...
Dad, just...
No!
You don't...
Dad!
Is that your best shot?
You get out.
Get out of my house!
Dad...
Get out of it right now!
This isn't over.
Why can't you just leave me alone?
You wouldn't be like this if your mother was still alive.
Yeah, well, if only you two could trade places.
I didn't need to stay around and watch the fireworks, when he gave me my 900 bucks, I left.
That's a nice story, but that makes him a teenager, not somebody who would take an entire family out.
Kid didn't leave, exactly.
What do you mean?
I saw him heading back to the house.
Hey, hey, hey.
What you got there, huh?
Nothing.
Nothing?
A gun?
That guy owes me money.
You go in there, you pop him, makes it hard for him to pay me back, right?
You do not want to piss me off.
Get out of here.
He must have come back later.
So, I don't suppose you told Ted the kid was a threat to him, huh?.
No.
I didn't think the kid was stupid enough not to listen to me.
Go figure.
Yeah, go figure.
I know who Kevin is.
Nicole and Ted had been fighting so much, when she confided in me, I thought I'd better keep it to myself or she'd have nobody to talk to.
Are you aware that he's almost 19?
No.
How long have they been dating?
About two months.
But she swore they weren't sexually active.
She might have been lying about that.
Okay, so, um, what else can you tell us about him?
They met at Catholic school last year.
I know he works part time at a small appliance repair place on Marston.
So, um, what were Ted and Nicole fighting about?
Um, how short her skirts were, the B-minus on a Spanish test, everything.
Do you think Kevin did something to them?
We're not sure.
What do you think?
I don't know.
I'm sorry, I don't know.
Not much love lost between the father and the daughter.
So if the boyfriend came back, maybe she helped him take out the old man and they left with the brother.
Well, before her cell phone was disconnected, almost every call Nicole made was to Kevin Burke.
How far back?
Almost five months.
The sister said two months.
Well, I understand why she didn't want to talk about him.
This guy's had a tickler on his juvie file since he was 15.
He still lives at home with his parents.
They don't have a clue where he is, so I put an APB out on the car and we're watching his cell and pager.
Okay, since they met at school, maybe somebody over there is worth talking to.
Okay, let's check it out.
Yeah, I know Kevin.
We kicked him out two months before graduation last spring for smoking a joint in the gymnasium- during gym class.
So he wanted to get kicked out.
I guess Catholic school washis parents' last ditch effort to keep him out of jail.
I'm surprised that Nicole was mixed up with him.
I thought she was doing remarkably well, considering.
Much brother than her brother.
How so?
Before his mother died, Dylan was the perfect kid- smart, polite...
just enough sass to be interesting.
But his grades are falling and he just seems angry all the time.
What's all this about?
Well, they're all missing.
Damn.
I saw him yesterday morning.
I thought he was acting out, but it must have been something else.
Is someone in there?
Father Veroci won't be here until tomorrow.
Dylan.
What are you doing?
Nothing.
Then why aren't you in class?
I don't have my uniform shirt.
I can get you another shirt, but what happened to yours?
Come on.
Let's go to my office and get you something to wear.
No.
School started almost an hour ago.
You have already missed homeroom.
Look, I don't need your stupid shirt!
I'm not going to class.
I don't know what's going on with you, but I have had about enough.
You and I are going to go call your father and get him down here.
No!
I looked for him but he wasn't around, so I called Ted and left him a message.
Any idea why he'd be hiding in the confessional?
I wish I knew.
Sister, I'd like to talk to some of Dylan's friends, if that's all right with you.
Yeah, I'll pull them out of class right now.
Thank you.
Okay, thanks, bye.
Sam, we've got to head down to I-One.
State troopers just picked up Kevin Burke for speeding.
They're bringing him in.
Was any of the family with him?
No.
Wonder where he was headed in such a hurry.
I wasn't going anywhere.
I just like to drive fast.
We have a witness who saw you at Ted's house with a gun.
Who?
Hey, we ask the questions here.
Look, whoever he is, he's lying, okay?
Why did Nicole call you last night?
I thought she wanted to hook up but then she showed and got all crazy.
I just needed to talk to you.
We could have done that on the phone.
I snuck out because I wanted to tell you face to face that I won't be able to see you anymore.
Look, we've got a good thing going here, Nick.
Don't let your dad screw it up, all right?
It's not about my dad.
There's just some stuff going on with my family, and I need some time.
What's going on, Nick?
I'm sorry about the other night, I didn't mean to get you in trouble.
No, no, it's not about you.
Do you have a tissue or, um, or some water maybe?
Um...
no, I-I'm sorry.
But the gas station's open.
I'll go get you some water, okay?
She was gone when I got back.
I didn't realize she'd taken it until the next day.
But by then they were already gone.
Why do you have a gun in your glove compartment?
It's my dad's.
It's where he keeps it.
Nicole knew that.
What was Nicole so upset about?
She wasn't upset.
She just wanted to steal the gun.
So where were you last night?
Nicole turned me down, so, uh...
I went to see another friend.
Why don't you write down this other friend's name and number for us?
I don't know where he is.
Really?
'Cause we heard you guys walk to school together every day.
Almost every day.
Did you walk to school yesterday?
No.
Now, if you know something, even if it seems really small, you need to tell us, all right?
I was waiting for him, like I always do.
Hey.
Your shirt.
Dylan!
Todd, did Dylan look hurt in any way?
I didn't see anything.
Any idea where he came from?
He didn't come to school, so I didn't get to ask him.
Is he gonna be ok?
So we found the shirt in the garbage can, right where the kid said it would be.
That's a spray pattern.
Based on the timeline, there's no way the blood on that shirt would match the blood in the house.
What violent crimes were reported in the neighborhood that morning?
Got 'em right here.
There were three.
Uh...
Okay.
A woman was mugged at gunpoint, a man was shot and killed in an alley and a homeless guy was stabbed by a gang of kids.
I would say that the shooting is our best bet.
Yeah.
I'm going to look in to it.
I'm going to go follow up with Mack.
All right.
What's up?
Well, I was going through Dylan Jordano's computer.
Mostly papers, a few provocative girlie photos, uh, but I did find this.
Okay, high score was recorded yesterday at 3:50 p.
m.
Todd lied.
He did see Dylan later that day.
Yep.
Okay.
Good work, man.
Thanks.
You're Todd C.
right?
Look, we know you saw him after school.
No.
No?
We recovered this at your house.
My guess is that the blood here matches the blood on Dylan's shirt.
Look, Todd, we're not mad at you for lying.
I lie sometimes.
He lies all the time.
Constantly.
Look, if Dylan were here, he would help you.
But he's not here.
You want them to get me, too?
Who's "them"?
Start at the beginning.
We didn't want to get to school too soon.
We were just cruising through Glenside.
It's so boring.
Guy, whale, guy, whale, whale, whale, whale.
Why can't we read The Runaways?
It's a comic book.
It's a graphic novel.
Nerd.
Come on, we're going to be late.
It'll be faster if we cut through here.
Hey, check it out.
Dylan was hiding.
There's a place where we hang out.
We threw away his shirt and decided to go to school, but...
The shooter, did he see you?
I- I don't think so.
But he definitely saw Dylan?
Todd, do you think you could describe this guy?
I couldn't really see him clearly, just Dylan and the other man.
The man on the ground.
Okay.
All right, Todd, listen, your mom's here.
I'm going to go get her for you, okay?
You did great.
So did anybody call the school yesterday asking about Dylan?
I was expecting a call from his father but I never heard from him.
Or any of the other students who were absent?
I would never give out that information.
No, of course you wouldn't.
I'm just trying to figure out if there was someone who seemed out of place or lost, that's all.
There was a man here with his son.
He wanted information on the school.
Sorry to come in without an appointment.
No problem.
How can I help you?
Stephen goes to Vanderbilt Elementary and I'm just not sure it's working out for him.
I was wondering if you could tell me about St.
Valerians.
Of course.
Here you go.
And...
this.
We're K-12.
Two classes of 20, K through Sixth.
I'm sorry, do you have a yearbook or something I could look at while you're going through things?
Just so I can get a sense of the school.
Sure.
Here we go.
Thanks.
You were saying?
Our middle school and our high school each have about 60 kids per grade.
I think you'll find that we're a very diverse community- and smart.
80% of our seniors attend college and most of the rest attend vocational or technical schools.
What about religious instruction?
He was here for about ten minutes.
He took our materials and left.
Did I do something wrong?
No, no, not at all.
This yearbook, did he happen to take that with him as well?
No, no, it's here.
Wait, you know, it's better if we don't touch it I'm going to have to check it for fingerprints.
Thank you.
This is Costos Velo.
He runs with a gang of Albanians.
PD sent over all of their files.
They're tracking 30 of these guys.
And guess who I found.
Our loan shark.
Ah, he's hit again.
I know where you're going with this.
The loan shark gave us Kevin to send us in the wrong direction, but does Kevin's alibi check out?
Yes, it does.
We cut him loose.
Okay, and what with the family's DNA not matching the blood in the house, maybe Costos found them and he got shot?
Okay, there was a Cadillac stolen last night from a construction site where Ted has done some work.
Now, it is a mile from the Jordano house.
Sounds to me like the Jordano family is on the run.
Who are we looking for?
Sadik Marku.
Which one is he?
The tall blond one.
I'll talk to him.
What and I've got to talk to the other seven guys?
Hey, you talk faster than I do.
Makes sense.
There's seven of them.
You can handle it.
Fellas...
Why don't you go wash my car?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm sorry, Mister, uh...
Malone.
What can I do for you?
Where's the Jordano family?
Oh, I don't know.
I probably wouldn't tell you if I did.
The Jordano kid saw your guy kill that man in the alley.
Really?
I also know that you put a hit out on that kid.
You're full of a lot of accusations, Mr.
Malone.
But I'm guessing...
not a lot of proof.
Otherwise we wouldn't be talking like this, right?
I'm just warning you.
You stay away from that family.
You give me too much credit.
Things happen.
People get hit by buses, bit by spiders.
They run, they fall down.
How is any of this my doing?
Now, I've got somewhere to be.
You get anything?
Yeah, a deal on a plasma.
How about you?
Nothing.
So what are you thinking?
I think this guy would kill the Jordano family if they were standing on a room Yeah.
Here it is.
Okay, look at this.
There were a bunch of messages to Kevin's pager right after he left custody.
All right, the first one, "I miss you. "
Call me. "
Second one, "Where are you?"
But this last one...
Listen to this. "
The cops think I killed you.
You've got to help me. "
Why would she send that to Kevin?
I have no idea.
That's why I'm asking you.
What was the pattern before the family went missing?
Over the last couple of months, two to three pages a week.
Usually early evening.
The messages are not to Kevin, they're from Kevin.
He must have given Nicole his pager after her cell phone was deactivated.
Okay, did she answer the page?
Let's see.
He got a call on his cell ten minutes after last page, so, just waiting for the routing information.
Well, she's still alive.
But Kevin's not in trouble with the cops anymore, so why's he still trying to find her?
Hey, Kevin.
Keep your hands where I can see them.
Get over here.
We know Nicole called you from a pay phone in Hurley.
Where is she?
I don't know.
Where did you get this, huh?
Sold my parent's fridge.
Yeah, and I won the lottery.
Turn around.
Whoa.
What happened?
Lift up your shirt.
Lift it up.
Ooh!
Is that Marku's work?
No.
All right, I want you to cut the crap right now.
I think you got this cash for selling out the Jordanos.
Kevin, he will kill them.
Look, after you guys let me go, Marku's guys picked me up.
They said I had to find Nicole and her family.
I didn't know what to do, so I paged her.
Nicole?
Hi, Kevin.
Baby, you okay?
I'm going to throw the pager away.
I forgot I had it.
You've got to leave us alone.
Look, the cops think I killed you.
Just tell me where you are so I can get things squared up.
I can't.
Look, I'm screwed here, Nick.
You got to help me.
Look, I just spent the morning at my mother's grave, and I'm probably never going to get to come back, so don't tell me what I have to do.
I'm sorry.
Look, we're, um...
we're headed to Montreal.
I'll have my dad call the cops once we're safe, and he'll tell them you didn't do anything.
Okay.
Look, are you sure you don't want me to come help you?
'Cause I will.
Good-bye, Kevin.
Bye, Nicole.
They gave me that money when they picked me up.
I tried to give it back, but they said they were going to kill me if I didn't tell them.
Where's her mom buried?
Red Hook.
Kevin, how long ago did you tell Marku this?
About an hour ago.
We got to get moving.
Let's go.
Okay.
All right.
Thanks.
That was Elena.
Her and Viv struck out on Route 117.
The Jordano's weren't there.
What about the border crossings?
RCMP's got them covered.
What color is that car they stole?
It was that color right there.
You see anyone?
Nope.
Mr.
Jordano, it's the FBI!
How do I know that?
I'm going to throw you my badge, all right?
Here it comes.
Throw your weapon out!
Put your weapon on the ground now!
All right, all right.
On the ground.
All right.
Where are your kids?
They're over there.
Jack, we got company.
Get behind the car.
Kids, get back in there!
Kids, stay where you are!
Come on.
Let's get out of here.
Kids, come on.
So you got Sister Louise's message saying that Dylan left school.
Yeah.
Where are my kids?
They're downstairs in the break room waiting for dinner.
Right.
Right.
You already told me that.
So?
After you got the message, you went straight home.
Yeah.
And then Dylan told me everything he'd seen.
And then he fell.
He was all bloody.
The other guy- he saw me.
I didn't know what to do, so I ran.
But I dropped my jacket.
Your school jacket?
You told me not to go to Glenside, but I did.
I shouldn't have, Dad.
It's okay, Dylan.
He chased after me, Dad.
What if he finds me?
I'm not going to let him find you.
I'm so sorry.
Listen, we're going to take care of this, okay?
Don't worry.
I'm going to figure this out.
When your son told you what had happened, why didn't you contact the police?
The police?
The police would have let those guys right to us.
So what was your plan, Mr.
Jordano?
To lay low.
If they didn't find us in a week or so, I just figured everything would be fine.
I think the both of you should go to bed.
I won't be able to sleep.
Then play a video game with your brother.
This is all my fault.
No, Dylan.
It's my fault.
For not being there when you needed me.
Dad's right.
We should play something.
Cards, maybe?
Texas Hold 'Em?
Go upstairs, be quiet.
Go.
Is he dead?
Where did that come from?
I thought we might need it.
Let go.
Go look after your brother.
Go, okay?
I took my credit cards and all the cash that we had in the house, and we left.
And you didn't get rid of the body?
No.
Marku must have sent in the cleaners.
What do we do now?
I've talked to the U.S.
Attorney.
He said that he'll relocate your family in exchange for you and your son's testimony.
If we do that, they won't stop till they find us.
They won't stop till we're all dead.
I understand your concerns, Mr.
Jordano.
But the federal marshals will do everything they can to protect you.
Will my kids be safe?
I know it's not the most attractive option, but it's all I can offer you right now.
We ordered Chinese, Dad.
You want to come eat with us?
Yeah.
You bet.
Let's go.
Can you hear me now?
Yo.
Yo!
Hello?
Classy.
What do you want?
The Jordanos are going to testify.
And you're going to leave them alone.
Chances are that murder's never gonna come back to you.
You think, because there are rules that I have to follow, that you don't have to fear me.
I don't care about the rules.
You will leave the Jordano family alone...
or I will put a bullet in your brain with this gun.
We can save time and do it now.
You'll have to excuse me...
...but there's somewhere I got to be.
