Programa de TV: Criminal Minds - 17x9
Previously on "Criminal Minds Evolution"...
Each of these members of the strike team had a specific target, two of which you've already ID'd.
So, this Gold Star isn't just one person, like we thought.
I-It's a program, and these are its participants.
Five members, five points of the star.
How does a conspiracy theory make a serial killer?
GS-One through Five are the test subjects.
But who is the puppet master?
What is it?
GPS and a lockbox.
I don't have time for a treasure hunt.
Without the contents of this case, you will never know the truth.
Vincent Orlov.
We know Voit only works with people he can manipulate.
We need to find Orlov's thumbscrew.
These are logs of someone chatting with the elusive head of the Sicarius Network.
They were traced back to your IP.
What are the chances you and Elias Voit are connected to the Sicarius Network?
I don't take kindly to blackmail.
I knew you'd come.
I need to show you something.
You want to take me somewhere?
I do.
Where are we going?
To save a child, Damien.
I read your file.
I know how your brain was reshaped by abuse.
Shut the fuck up!
Someone, starting at Stuart House, made you GS-One.
It's not your fault.
FBI.
Keep your hands where we can see them.
♪ You were born with glue instead of spine ♪ ♪ Liar ♪ I can't go back inside.
Promise me if we get caught...
Hey, that's not gonna happen.
No.
Listen to me.
I need you to promise me...
that we will...
never go back into a cage again.
I promise.
♪ Ha ha ha ha, of you I ♪ ♪ Ha ha ha ha, tied to a ♪ ♪ You got this thing that really makes me hot ♪ ♪ You got a lot ♪ ♪ And more when you get caught ♪ Morning, miss.
Hi.
Good morning.
Happen to know how fast you were traveling just now?
Too fast?
Ding-ding-ding.
That is correct.
Tell the lady what she won.
Oh, I won?
No, I was just being silly.
Oh.
License and registration.
Sure.
Um...
I, um...
really am sorry.
My mom's in the hospital.
She got into a bad accident.
I was just trying to get to her as...
as soon as I could.
Ma'am, I'm gonna need you to get out of your car.
Is there a problem?
Out of your vehicle.
Hands where I can see them.
Hands on the back of the vehicle.
Yes, sir.
Miss Jade Waters, I'm placing you under arrest.
Hm.
Congratulations, Trooper-Man.
I don't think you realize, but you're about to become a big hero.
See?
What'd I tell you?
You did.
Miss America's Most Wanted.
Yeah.
Wow.
This is gonna be good.
Oh.
Let's get that - out of the way.
Please don't kill me.
5-7, do you require any additional assistance?
Aaah!
It's good to have friends.
5-7, do you copy?
5-7, please respond.
I'm begging you, please.
My...
My wife.
We just had a baby.
I promise you, I am not gonna have my friend Dana here kill you.
No, because I need you to do us a big, huge favor.
No, no, no, no. "
Betrayal is the only truth that sticks."
Arthur Miller.
Officer.
Sir.
Open up 438.
Thank you.
You're late.
Damien Booth is dead.
Let me guess.
Shot by Jade Waters.
That's right.
Young love.
Always a tragedy.
Apparently, their plan to kidnap and kill a Dr.
Jill Gideon was somehow upended by the FBI.
You mean upended by the BAU.
Your David Rossi and friends, yes.
Dr.
Jill Gideon, huh?
She is?
The ex-wife of David Rossi's ex-partner Jason Gideon.
Yeah, yeah.
That's right.
Anyway, do you think Jade is going to reach out again?
No.
The contents of the case you delivered to her will give her everything she needs.
Besides, aren't you under surveillance?
Rebecca Wilson thinks that she's clever, but I could have a judge remove her immediately from the case.
She's the devil we know.
So, no.
Alright.
Everything else is all set.
In the next 24 hours, after your court hearing, you'll be moved to FCI Collymore, where you will serve out your agreed-upon sentence of seven years.
Out in five.
If you say so.
I do.
This wasn't your fault.
You're just lucky Damien didn't put a bullet in your head.
It wasn't luck.
I had the profile that was gonna take the gun out of that kid's hand.
And I knew, in a moment of clarity, probably speaking to Emily, you'd figure out why I kissed you.
And what kind of bullshit was that?
It was necessary to distract you.
I needed time to de-escalate the situation.
Jill, come on.
It was reckless.
It was not without risk.
Yes.
And I will admit, what I didn't account for was that Damien and his fellow Gold Star, this Jade Waters, would make some kind of suicide pact.
They were not going to allow one another to be locked up in a cage ever again.
Suicide pact?
You think Jade might take her own life now?
No, I-I misspoke.
It's more like a mutually agreed upon mercy kill.
Think "Of Mice and Men," like how George kills Lenny.
Because now Jade must feel confident enough to know that she can go on without him.
Plus, she still has reinforcements.
There are two other Gold Stars out there to help her if need be.
What do you know about them?
Well, besides one is Dana H.
And the other Peter B., nothing.
Dave, I need to see you in my office.
It's now official.
Director Madison is honoring Voit's plea agreement, which means he is going to be transferred to FCI Collymore, a minimum-security federal prison.
Fucking Club Fed.
How exactly does the director figure Voit has fulfilled his part of the agreement?
Even with Damien Booth dead, Gold Star remains an ongoing threat with three fugitives...
Jade Waters, Dana H., and Peter B.
Plus, we know Voit has tried to communicate with them secretly, first in Morse code, then probably through his lawyer.
Which we cannot prove.
Not yet.
I'm working on it.
Keep working.
But yeah, what can I say?
At the moment, it is what it is.
It's a mistake, is what it is.
It's only a matter of time before Voit breaks out of there.
It's not as if there's no security.
Not enough to hold him.
Hey, anything from the list of Joe Gideon's colleagues?
Stand back.
It's up there.
I'm irresistible when being this brilliant.
I have unleashed my break in case of emergency algorithm.
I've named her Penny.
She's going through financials now.
Look at Penny go.
All we can do is put on our imaginary rose-colored glasses over our regular glasses, fill our hearts with hope that Penny the algorithm is going to recognize some kind of pattern that connects everybody in an unusual transaction, or maybe two.
And how long is that going to take?
Well, Spencer says the human brain runs 10 to 100 cycles per second.
This computer is about 10 billion times faster than that plus 10...
So not long.
Slower than...
I mean, yeah.
Not long.
Whoa.
See, this is what I'm talking about.
Penny has just made our dreams come true.
She's connected all 11 Stuart House doctors and George Kelby and Adam Ulrich.
Those are the sheriff's deputies in Utah that Jade murdered.
They sure were.
Okay, they're all connected because they were paid through this encrypted routing number, which goes to an offshore account linked to...
Aida Limited.
Aida.
You've heard of them?
Yeah.
A long time ago, when I was a Ranger, I knew some guys that worked for them.
They're a private security company contracted by the US government.
But their contract was voided after they were accused of criminal misconduct.
Profiteering.
Germane to what you are saying right now, it looks like their dear leader, el jefe, CEO Mr.
Frank Church, uh, this fella was brought up on charges which were later dropped.
Frank has friends in high places.
And these days, Mr.
Church and Aida are known around the globe for their security expertise.
Meaning guns for hire.
They're mercenaries.
I mean, we do know that a private security company paid for the strike team.
Yeah, we do.
And if this is the guy that did that...
Yikes.
Maryland State Trooper Martin Sanz was attacked during what he thought was a routine traffic stop.
He recognized Jade Waters, attempted to make an arrest, but somehow she got the upper hand.
The bright side is he's still alive.
But...
Yeah, but she gouged out his eyes, took his badge, and she told him to talk to no one but the FBI.
What's his condition now?
He's out of surgery and recovering.
Before, these acts of enucleation were postmortem signatures.
But this is a definite escalation of sadism.
She wants us to feel her pain.
Right, but she wants to punish us for protecting the conspiracy that abuses children and for forcing her to kill Damien.
The trooper pulling her over like this...
it wouldn't have been as easy for Jade to get the jump on him.
She might have had help.
Another Gold Star?
Well, we'll know for sure once you and Tara get Trooper Sanz's statement.
All right.
Uh, Luke and I will head to the crime scene and see if Jade left anything in her stolen vehicle.
Good.
Penelope, what else do we have on Frank Church and Aida Limited?
Not nearly enough.
Okay, I think Tyler might be able to help flesh out some background for us.
Tyler, I need you to dig up whatever you can on a guy named Frank church.
He runs Aida Limited.
Then you and I are going to bring him in for questioning.
What are you looking for?
This.
What is this?
I'm not sure.
Who gave you those keys?
It's a friend of Damien's.
What friend?
They've met on the darknet during the pandemic.
Fuck, Jade.
You don't know...
I talked to him, too.
And you trust him?
Damien trusted him.
Let's check out what's down there.
What is this shit?
It's the end of the conspiracy.
Jade.
Hey!
Look at me.
You.
Me.
Aiden.
Peter.
Damien.
We have been through hell.
And no matter what anybody else says, blood don't mean shit.
You choose your family.
And the five of us, we chose each other.
Yeah, we did.
So until you and me, we find Peter, I trust nobody else but you.
Same.
But if this is what I think it is, we need help.
We need to go home.
I know.
Trooper Sanz?
Yeah?
I'm SSA David Rossi.
I'm standing here with SSA Tara Lewis.
FBI?
That's right.
Well, they sure made it clear that this was for your eyes only.
Sick fucks.
There was more than one assailant?
Yeah, there was two of these crazy fucking bitches.
One shot me, the other one took my eyes.
Why'd she have to take my fucking eyes, man?
You'd recognized Jade Waters.
Now, do you think you could identify the second female?
I'll never forget her.
Some Black chick in her 20s.
Jade called her Dana.
Dana.
She was the one that shot you?
Shot me right in the chest.
Didn't want to kill me, but to just disable me.
I wish she just would have killed me.
No, you don't.
I know that you're in a lot of pain, son.
But your family is extremely grateful that you'll be coming home soon.
It's fucking hard.
I know.
And I'm not gonna lie to you.
You've got a long road ahead.
But there's always hope.
Listen.
You gonna get them?
Yes, we are.
And I don't just mean bring them to justice.
We know what you mean.
And I know that some of your comrades in arms have the same feeling about it as you do.
But there's a bigger picture.
Which I sure as hell can't see.
You know what?
Why don't we, uh...
Why don't we give you a little bit more time?
No, no, no.
Look, I'm sorry, okay?
Jesus.
I just...
Look, this...
this Jade, she wanted me to tell you that...
That I never meant to hurt anyone.
She never meant to hurt anyone.
I had no choice.
Now I just want to go home and find peace.
Sparing your life is about all the mercy that I have left.
All the mercy she had left.
If you choose to go after her...
If they choose to come after me...
she swears...
I will fucking take them down.
And the streets will run with blue blood.
The streets will run with blue blood.
That's what she wanted me to tell you.
I'm begging you.
Please help me.
My wife...
Trooper Sanz, we thank you for your service and we promise you we will get justice.
I mean, it doesn't take a profiler to know Jade isn't really looking to go home to find peace.
No, but her choice of words is telling.
She wants to go home.
But you guys are saying this home hired the men who tried to kill her?
They tried to groom these perfectly pliable assassins.
But at some point along the way, something went wrong.
Maybe Damien struggled with doubts.
Maybe they all did, and whoever ran the program decided to cut their losses.
And cover their asses.
But bear with me.
What if these Gold Stars never recognized the strike team had been sent by their puppet master, but rather as proof that they were rocking the boat, that they were striking at the very heart of the conspiracy?
Anything's possible.
No, no.
But what I'm talking about is whether or not they were capable of distinguishing between friend and foe.
If you were manipulating them with a conspiracy theory, you would want to make sure they couldn't tell the difference between the two.
Oh, you'd make it impossible.
You'd gaslight these kids into thinking everybody is an enemy except for your fellow Gold Stars and yourself.
Exactly.
So it could be that to Dana and Jade, home is their original training ground.
But if I was Aida and I was trying to erase every trace of Gold Star, I'm dumping that site.
They could be using one of the alternate Stuart House sites.
Oh, speaking of, these are the ones from your records, correct?
Yes.
All right.
Let's concentrate on the ones closest to Jade's last known location.
Luke.
Dave.
You're not going to believe this, but we recovered a Haeberlin case from Jade's stolen Cherokee.
A kill kit?
Yeah.
It's empty.
There's nothing to suggest what was inside.
That son of a bitch.
But that's not all.
The cupping patterns in the tire impressions left behind, they match a stolen Charger that was just found abandoned near Castell Creek outside of Rockville, Maryland.
Penelope, bring up the map of Voit's buried kill kits.
Castell Creek is awfully close.
And I don't believe in coincidences.
Dave, we're heading to that location now.
We're right behind you.
All right, given what happened to Trooper Sanz, the locals will be restless.
We need to take charge of this scene.
You think they'll be out for blood?
I do, and it's exactly what Jade is hoping for.
We tried to warn them.
But Sanz's captain didn't want to wait, so he breached with two other officers.
Bunker was booby trapped with IEDs filled with shrapnel.
God damn it!
Is there anything left inside?
Of course there is.
That's why it wasn't rigged with an incendiary device.
We knew he read all your books, David.
This...
This is something else.
Jesus Christ.
There's no way he compiled all of this research.
He didn't have to do the research himself.
He had his network do it for him. "
From Sicarius to Gold Star with love."
He's put the target on our backs.
You think you can get away with threatening my team?
You motherfucker!
Open up this Goddamn cage!
No!
Do not open it!
Agent Rossi, you need to calm down.
You seem upset.
You got this schmuck to deliver a kill kit to Jade, which led her to your bunker and then to your target list.
David, we have been over all of this.
Benjamin Reeves, AKA the so-called "Sicarius Killer," is dead.
I don't know, maybe Jade Waters had a personal relationship with him.
I heard Benji was quite the ladies' man.
Shut up.
I'm just spitballing here, but maybe the crazy chick that Jade was, she slept with a serial killer, got his secrets, and then dug up that kit and bunker thing.
Bully for her.
You're not getting out of here.
It's not up to you.
Yeah, it's a done deal.
But I will miss our special time together.
I know you think you could Houdini out of Collymore, but Gen Pop is no place for a serial killer.
Dahmer.
Kibbe.
Harvey.
All of them died at the hands of other prisoners.
Because you build prison cred by spilling blood like yours.
Ooh.
Almost sounds like you're threatening me.
I'm just telling it like it is.
Well, just so that you don't have to worry about me, I am not going into Gen Pop as the rumored serial killer Elias Voit.
Tell him, Vinnie.
Based on the BAU's own affidavit, my client is being prosecuted and sentenced under his birth name.
Lee Duval.
And no one really knows who that guy is, do they?
I really think you need to leave, Agent Rossi.
Back the fuck up, counselor.
Toodles.
Frank Church in the flesh.
That's not what I expected.
Upon closer examination, Mr.
Church fails to meet many expectations.
Starting with his military background.
While the Aida Limited website boasts of Church's many honors, truth is he only served the three years required to pay for college.
So you're saying he's more of a salesman than a soldier-of-fortune?
Exactly.
It seems over the past few years, he's been pitching his company's ability to provide an elite group of "specialized mechanics."
Specialized in what way?
We'll need to ask him.
Unit Chief Emily Prentiss.
Have we met?
No.
I saw your mug shot on Politico.
You've been reinstated, I see.
I have.
And who is this "visitor"?
Tyler Green.
What are you doing here?
He's with military intelligence.
Is he?
How can I help you?
During the course of a federal homicide investigation, we uncovered a series of payments made by your Aida Limited to the clinicians on this list, as well as these deputy sheriffs in Utah, all of them connected to a troubled youth facility called Stuart House.
You've identified an offshore account of ours.
I'm curious because I never received a warrant.
As I said, it was uncovered during the course of a homicide investigation.
Multiple homicides.
Everyone on this list is dead.
Tell me, Mr.
Green, can you read my micro-expressions?
How did I respond when Agent Prentiss not so subtly accused me of, if not outright murder, then conspiracy to commit?
Your eye twitched.
Mm.
Did it?
Might all of this have something to do with a program called Gold Star?
That same offshore account transferred cryptocurrency into an escrow that paid these five men to murder these five young people, three of whom we've identified.
So, yes, Gold Star.
You know, the first time I heard about Gold Star was from this online lunatic, Brian Garrity.
Had to get a restraining order against him.
But I don't need to tell you because you assaulted the man.
Mr.
Church, your answers are all textbook non-denial denial.
Miss Prentiss, your questions are textbook gumshoe intimidation.
Which leaves me with a profound concern for the future of federal law enforcement.
But I guess I shouldn't be surprised when good men like Deputy Director Douglas Bailey are cut down and women like you are championed.
I'm putting a halt to this.
By order of Director Madison.
Rebecca, Church walked in here of his own Goddamn volition.
That's not the point.
No.
The point is, the Director has been running interference against us from the very beginning.
He's in Church's pocket, isn't he?
Just hold on.
I'll admit, at the start I thought Madison was compromised, but it turns out he's not.
In fact, all of his actions, including this one, have been meant to protect the BAU.
Oh, protect us?
Doug Bailey told Madison about Gideon and Rossi's white paper weeks before Voit ever even mentioned Gold Star.
Madison showed me Bailey's report.
Bailey?
How?
It was suspected that whoever ran Gold Star leaked the information as a warning.
God.
Because any investigation into Gold Star would reveal the white paper's existence, and it would look as though the BAU was responsible.
Now we've got Jade Waters on the loose, you invite Frank Church in, and Madison hears some rumor that there's a reporter doing a story with the headline "FBI's BAU Grooms Cop Killer."
Oh, that is such bullshit.
It's a classic threat of using the press to release a bunch of disinformation.
Call it whatever the hell you want.
You should have profiled that you can't go head to head with a guy like Church unless you're ready to take the gloves off, because he'd like nothing more than an excuse to set fire to the reputations of every division of law enforcement.
Bring it on.
Be careful what you wish for.
She's right.
We get one swing at Church.
That's all we'll need.
But if you miss...
We bring the Bureau down with us.
Douglas Bailey are cut down, and women like you are championed.
I'm putting a halt to this by order of Director Madison.
I've never seen Church before, and no one I worked with ever mentioned him.
But the man's malignant narcissism is impossible to miss.
Yeah, you can see how much he wants to brag about what he's done.
It was practically killing the guy, having to hold it all in.
He does have what the kids call "rizz."
Yep.
He does.
He reminds me of a cult leader.
I mean, you could see how it wouldn't be a problem for him to beat these kids into submission and then turn right around and present himself as their savior.
Which means it's possible Jade wants to come home to him.
And since Jade passed the test, maybe now he won't want to kill her.
Yeah, she passed her version of the final exam, hasn't she?
Wait.
I'm sorry.
Test?
Final exam?
For Church to...
May I?
For Church to make sure his conspiracy had taken hold, he'd conduct a confirmation test.
In this case, Jade killing Damien was confirmation of her commitment.
Okay, and I get that he hired a strike team to erase Gold Star.
But I find it highly improbable that Mr.
Charisma here is just going to accept failure.
No, he would not.
He'd start over.
But then where would he find his fresh batch of troubled teenagers?
And where would he groom them?
Gold Star.
Let them through.
They're here.
Bring them in.
Jade, I was worried I wouldn't see you again.
I am so glad Dana found you.
Welcome home.
Thank you.
Dana, well done.
Well done.
Jade and I...
We can't find Peter.
What about Aidan and Damien?
They're dead.
How?
The FBI killed Aiden in Utah, and they caught Damien.
But...
But you wouldn't let him suffer.
I couldn't let them put him back in a cage.
That's right.
Benton, take Jade to the dormitory.
You can relax.
Eat something.
Dana, could you stay behind for a few moments?
I think there may be a way we can track down Peter.
Okay.
Did she resist coming here?
Not at all.
But she is in contact with a friend of Damien's who is still in federal custody.
He directed her to this secret bunker filled with intel about a special unit of the FBI.
The Behavioral Analysis Unit?
Yes.
Yes.
Is that it?
I still have questions.
I know you do.
Mila!
What have I told you?
The feelings, they...
They cloud judgment.
Without clarity, you will not live to fight another day.
Our enemies are too many to attack without discipline.
I understand.
All right, let's run it out.
Go, go, go!
Come on.
Mila has overcome so much.
She has come so far.
She reminds me of you.
You know, you and the other Gold Stars, you made all this possible.
You've helped to free these young people.
Give them their lives back.
And afforded us the opportunity to teach them the skills they're going to need to defend themselves in the future.
I don't understand.
The...
The doctors Damien killed, the cops I killed...
these kids had nothing to do with that.
They weren't even there.
I understand it's difficult to see, but the truth is, what you and Damien did struck at the heart of the conspiracy.
They were forced to retreat.
We were able to save all these young people.
And once Dana brings Peter home...
we'll be able to move on to the next phase.
Come here.
I want to show you something.
We had to surrender our original training site, but fortunately we were able to get this one up and running very quickly.
Move it!
Get moving!
Move!
You motherfucker!
Get your ass in there!
No!
Jade, take my hand!
Get the fuck off me!
I know this place reminds you of Stuart House.
It used to be one of theirs, but we liberated it.
As you can see, we have everything we need to fulfill our mission.
Except Damien.
I know how difficult that must have been for you.
I just wasn't going to let them get their hands on him.
Yes, you did what you had to do.
What Damien wanted you to do.
Because you are so very strong.
You are an example.
A true inspiration to these young people.
Okay, we've got six possible sites, but we just can't go storming into each one looking for Jade and Dana.
No, that would be rash, so thank Goddess I have discovered something that will narrow your storming.
So I took brilliant Jill's description of the kind of troubled youth that Church might be selecting.
And then I did a search of missing juveniles with those markers.
And this young human has come to my attention, 16-year-old Mila Sandoval.
Now, her personal history reads not unlike that of Jade waters.
Yeah, right down to the domestic abuse.
That's right.
Now, Mila has been missing nearly eight months.
So behold this super suspect still photo.
Now, that is a still from a security camera located a mile away from Driscoll State Forest.
It was taken two weeks ago.
And that is Mila talking to a local deputy.
So why is she still missing?
Because this was never reported.
How is that possible?
Well, the same thing happened back in Utah.
Deputies Kelby and Ulrich, the ones that Jade killed, they were being paid off by Stuart House to track down and return runaway teens.
Penelope, can you ID this deputy from the patrol unit number?
I can.
I will.
I just did.
Clarence Millbrae.
Okay.
Have JJ and Luke bring him in.
Let's find out who he's moonlighting for.
I'm sorry to bother you.
Not at all.
Are you GS-Five?
Yeah, I am, but you can just call me Jade.
I've seen you.
You're vicious.
I've tried to be like you.
They tell us stories about you and the other Gold Stars.
Are you okay?
Come here.
You can talk to me.
They tell me I'm still suffering from memories of an awful place.
From where they rescued you?
Yeah.
Do you have nightmares?
Uh, yeah.
Sometimes.
I have this one in particular over and over.
It feels so real.
I wake up and I feel really sick.
Like I'm going to throw up.
And I can't see because there are these weird goggles over my eyes, and I can't move.
And someone comes into the room.
It's a man.
How do you know?
Because I can feel his hands on me.
And when he's done with me...
the goggles slip off just enough that I can see his face.
It's Mr.
Church.
Do you have a nightmare like that?
Yeah.
I do.
Come on.
Do you have nightmares?
I don't dream.
Not anymore.
Lucky you.
What they did to you...
you had it so much worse than any of us.
Sometimes I think I see his face, but...
I know it's a lie because the face I see is Mr.
Church.
What's wrong?
What if it's not a lie?
What are you talking about?
I don't know.
Church told us they could make us believe things that aren't true.
They could turn us against each other if we're not careful.
No, I know, I know.
I just...
What?
I just wish I'd protected you.
So with Deputy Millbrae's law enforcement career pretty much in the shitter, he was more than willing to give us the location of his part-time employer.
According to him, Aida's youth training center is right here in an unincorporated area that borders the Driscoll State Forest.
I got it.
Judge just approved it.
We have a warrant to search the training center for Mila Sandoval.
Fantastic.
Now have Penelope start coordinating with HRT and SWAT.
Now, when we get on scene, I want to divide and conquer.
Guys, uh, sorry, but I've worked alongside this type of mercenary overseas.
And as far as they're concerned, this might turn into more than just a police action.
They're combat ready.
Okay.
Important safety tip.
Suit up.
You're coming with.
We found Aida's training center.
You need to come with us.
Why?
To help with the kids.
With Jade.
I can't.
They're going to need your help.
They needed my help years ago.
Jill, this isn't your fault.
I bear some responsibility.
You don't.
David, please.
Besides, you know I can't bear to carry a gun.
I know.
Hang on.
You be safe.
No.
No!
You were always my favorite, Jade.

Requesting backup.
Copy that, main gate.
Backup's on their way.
Luke, are you and Tyler in position?
We're covering the southern access road onto the property.
Hold until I say so.
Copy.
Unit Chief Emily Prentiss, FBI.
We're here to execute a legal search warrant on...
I don't give a shit what that piece of paper says.
You are not setting foot on this property.
The FBI is here for Mila.
I know.
We've got them held up at the gate, and I'm sending reinforcements.
But they have a search warrant.
Get Mila.
Put her back down in The Ward with Jade.
Once that's done, radio me.
And I'll show the FBI around the "whole" facility myself.
Copy that, sir.
Mila.
Mila.
Hey, Mila.
Hey, I need you to get up.
Jade?
You and the others are in danger.
Danger?
But you're okay.
You got this and you...
you're ready.
I just need you to get everyone down to the access road at the south end, okay?
Do you hear me?
You don't let anyone stop you, okay?
Okay.
Anyone.
Here.
You radio me when you get there.
What about you?
I will be right behind you.
Okay?
I'll tell you, people got no respect for the law these days.
What the hell is happening?
A lot of guys with guns telling us you shall not pass.
Emily, seriously, do not escalate the situation.
It doesn't matter that the law is on your side.
The guys with the guns are the reality on the ground.
Please be careful.
Yes, Emily, I second and I third that emotion.
Do not stir the hornet's nest.
Well, this seems eerily familiar.
What, a cult leader threatening Armageddon?
Tara, let's head around the perimeter.
Try to get a better sight line on the dormitory.
Let's do it.
Well, what do you think?
If this douchebag wasn't such a narcissist like David Koresh, I'd think he was bluffing.
Yeah.
Me too.
But...
But there's actually a chance he'd be willing to fire on federal agents executing a search warrant.
Sir...
Jade, Mila, all of them.
They're all gone.
Emily.
What do you got?
Movement.
Rear of the dormitory building.
Copy that.
Go ahead and shoot me.
Everybody move in now!
Agent Prentiss is on the property.
Stand down.
Wise decision, boys.
Everyone move.
On me!
Get your positions in front and behind.
All sectors, hold your fire, but maintain position.
All units, all units, Age
Each of these members of the strike team had a specific target, two of which you've already ID'd.
So, this Gold Star isn't just one person, like we thought.
I-It's a program, and these are its participants.
Five members, five points of the star.
How does a conspiracy theory make a serial killer?
GS-One through Five are the test subjects.
But who is the puppet master?
What is it?
GPS and a lockbox.
I don't have time for a treasure hunt.
Without the contents of this case, you will never know the truth.
Vincent Orlov.
We know Voit only works with people he can manipulate.
We need to find Orlov's thumbscrew.
These are logs of someone chatting with the elusive head of the Sicarius Network.
They were traced back to your IP.
What are the chances you and Elias Voit are connected to the Sicarius Network?
I don't take kindly to blackmail.
I knew you'd come.
I need to show you something.
You want to take me somewhere?
I do.
Where are we going?
To save a child, Damien.
I read your file.
I know how your brain was reshaped by abuse.
Shut the fuck up!
Someone, starting at Stuart House, made you GS-One.
It's not your fault.

Hi.
Good morning.
Happen to know how fast you were traveling just now?
Too fast?
Ding-ding-ding.
That is correct.
Tell the lady what she won.
Oh, I won?
No, I was just being silly.
Oh.
License and registration.
Sure.
Um...
I, um...
really am sorry.
My mom's in the hospital.
She got into a bad accident.
I was just trying to get to her as...
as soon as I could.
Ma'am, I'm gonna need you to get out of your car.
Is there a problem?
Out of your vehicle.
Hands where I can see them.
Hands on the back of the vehicle.
Yes, sir.
Miss Jade Waters, I'm placing you under arrest.
Hm.
Congratulations, Trooper-Man.
I don't think you realize, but you're about to become a big hero.
See?
What'd I tell you?
You did.
Miss America's Most Wanted.
Yeah.
Wow.
This is gonna be good.
Oh.
Let's get that - out of the way.
Please don't kill me.
5-7, do you require any additional assistance?
Aaah!
It's good to have friends.
5-7, do you copy?
5-7, please respond.
I'm begging you, please.
My...
My wife.
We just had a baby.
I promise you, I am not gonna have my friend Dana here kill you.
No, because I need you to do us a big, huge favor.
No, no, no, no. "
Betrayal is the only truth that sticks."
Arthur Miller.
Officer.
Sir.
Open up 438.
Thank you.
You're late.
Damien Booth is dead.
Let me guess.
Shot by Jade Waters.
That's right.
Young love.
Always a tragedy.
Apparently, their plan to kidnap and kill a Dr.
Jill Gideon was somehow upended by the FBI.
You mean upended by the BAU.
Your David Rossi and friends, yes.
Dr.
Jill Gideon, huh?
She is?
The ex-wife of David Rossi's ex-partner Jason Gideon.
Yeah, yeah.
That's right.
Anyway, do you think Jade is going to reach out again?
No.
The contents of the case you delivered to her will give her everything she needs.
Besides, aren't you under surveillance?
Rebecca Wilson thinks that she's clever, but I could have a judge remove her immediately from the case.
She's the devil we know.
So, no.
Alright.
Everything else is all set.
In the next 24 hours, after your court hearing, you'll be moved to FCI Collymore, where you will serve out your agreed-upon sentence of seven years.
Out in five.
If you say so.
I do.
This wasn't your fault.
You're just lucky Damien didn't put a bullet in your head.
It wasn't luck.
I had the profile that was gonna take the gun out of that kid's hand.
And I knew, in a moment of clarity, probably speaking to Emily, you'd figure out why I kissed you.
And what kind of bullshit was that?
It was necessary to distract you.
I needed time to de-escalate the situation.
Jill, come on.
It was reckless.
It was not without risk.
Yes.
And I will admit, what I didn't account for was that Damien and his fellow Gold Star, this Jade Waters, would make some kind of suicide pact.
They were not going to allow one another to be locked up in a cage ever again.
Suicide pact?
You think Jade might take her own life now?
No, I-I misspoke.
It's more like a mutually agreed upon mercy kill.
Think "Of Mice and Men," like how George kills Lenny.
Because now Jade must feel confident enough to know that she can go on without him.
Plus, she still has reinforcements.
There are two other Gold Stars out there to help her if need be.
What do you know about them?
Well, besides one is Dana H.
And the other Peter B., nothing.
Dave, I need to see you in my office.
It's now official.
Director Madison is honoring Voit's plea agreement, which means he is going to be transferred to FCI Collymore, a minimum-security federal prison.
Fucking Club Fed.
How exactly does the director figure Voit has fulfilled his part of the agreement?
Even with Damien Booth dead, Gold Star remains an ongoing threat with three fugitives...
Jade Waters, Dana H., and Peter B.
Plus, we know Voit has tried to communicate with them secretly, first in Morse code, then probably through his lawyer.
Which we cannot prove.
Not yet.
I'm working on it.
Keep working.
But yeah, what can I say?
At the moment, it is what it is.
It's a mistake, is what it is.
It's only a matter of time before Voit breaks out of there.
It's not as if there's no security.
Not enough to hold him.
Hey, anything from the list of Joe Gideon's colleagues?
Stand back.
It's up there.
I'm irresistible when being this brilliant.
I have unleashed my break in case of emergency algorithm.
I've named her Penny.
She's going through financials now.
Look at Penny go.
All we can do is put on our imaginary rose-colored glasses over our regular glasses, fill our hearts with hope that Penny the algorithm is going to recognize some kind of pattern that connects everybody in an unusual transaction, or maybe two.
And how long is that going to take?
Well, Spencer says the human brain runs 10 to 100 cycles per second.
This computer is about 10 billion times faster than that plus 10...
So not long.
Slower than...
I mean, yeah.
Not long.
Whoa.
See, this is what I'm talking about.
Penny has just made our dreams come true.
She's connected all 11 Stuart House doctors and George Kelby and Adam Ulrich.
Those are the sheriff's deputies in Utah that Jade murdered.
They sure were.
Okay, they're all connected because they were paid through this encrypted routing number, which goes to an offshore account linked to...
Aida Limited.
Aida.
You've heard of them?
Yeah.
A long time ago, when I was a Ranger, I knew some guys that worked for them.
They're a private security company contracted by the US government.
But their contract was voided after they were accused of criminal misconduct.
Profiteering.
Germane to what you are saying right now, it looks like their dear leader, el jefe, CEO Mr.
Frank Church, uh, this fella was brought up on charges which were later dropped.
Frank has friends in high places.
And these days, Mr.
Church and Aida are known around the globe for their security expertise.
Meaning guns for hire.
They're mercenaries.
I mean, we do know that a private security company paid for the strike team.
Yeah, we do.
And if this is the guy that did that...
Yikes.
Maryland State Trooper Martin Sanz was attacked during what he thought was a routine traffic stop.
He recognized Jade Waters, attempted to make an arrest, but somehow she got the upper hand.
The bright side is he's still alive.
But...
Yeah, but she gouged out his eyes, took his badge, and she told him to talk to no one but the FBI.
What's his condition now?
He's out of surgery and recovering.
Before, these acts of enucleation were postmortem signatures.
But this is a definite escalation of sadism.
She wants us to feel her pain.
Right, but she wants to punish us for protecting the conspiracy that abuses children and for forcing her to kill Damien.
The trooper pulling her over like this...
it wouldn't have been as easy for Jade to get the jump on him.
She might have had help.
Another Gold Star?
Well, we'll know for sure once you and Tara get Trooper Sanz's statement.
All right.
Uh, Luke and I will head to the crime scene and see if Jade left anything in her stolen vehicle.
Good.
Penelope, what else do we have on Frank Church and Aida Limited?
Not nearly enough.
Okay, I think Tyler might be able to help flesh out some background for us.
Tyler, I need you to dig up whatever you can on a guy named Frank church.
He runs Aida Limited.
Then you and I are going to bring him in for questioning.
What are you looking for?
This.
What is this?
I'm not sure.
Who gave you those keys?
It's a friend of Damien's.
What friend?
They've met on the darknet during the pandemic.
Fuck, Jade.
You don't know...
I talked to him, too.
And you trust him?
Damien trusted him.
Let's check out what's down there.
What is this shit?
It's the end of the conspiracy.
Jade.
Hey!
Look at me.
You.
Me.
Aiden.
Peter.
Damien.
We have been through hell.
And no matter what anybody else says, blood don't mean shit.
You choose your family.
And the five of us, we chose each other.
Yeah, we did.
So until you and me, we find Peter, I trust nobody else but you.
Same.
But if this is what I think it is, we need help.
We need to go home.
I know.
Trooper Sanz?
Yeah?
I'm SSA David Rossi.
I'm standing here with SSA Tara Lewis.
FBI?
That's right.
Well, they sure made it clear that this was for your eyes only.
Sick fucks.
There was more than one assailant?
Yeah, there was two of these crazy fucking bitches.
One shot me, the other one took my eyes.
Why'd she have to take my fucking eyes, man?
You'd recognized Jade Waters.
Now, do you think you could identify the second female?
I'll never forget her.
Some Black chick in her 20s.
Jade called her Dana.
Dana.
She was the one that shot you?
Shot me right in the chest.
Didn't want to kill me, but to just disable me.
I wish she just would have killed me.
No, you don't.
I know that you're in a lot of pain, son.
But your family is extremely grateful that you'll be coming home soon.
It's fucking hard.
I know.
And I'm not gonna lie to you.
You've got a long road ahead.
But there's always hope.
Listen.
You gonna get them?
Yes, we are.
And I don't just mean bring them to justice.
We know what you mean.
And I know that some of your comrades in arms have the same feeling about it as you do.
But there's a bigger picture.
Which I sure as hell can't see.
You know what?
Why don't we, uh...
Why don't we give you a little bit more time?
No, no, no.
Look, I'm sorry, okay?
Jesus.
I just...
Look, this...
this Jade, she wanted me to tell you that...
That I never meant to hurt anyone.
She never meant to hurt anyone.
I had no choice.
Now I just want to go home and find peace.
Sparing your life is about all the mercy that I have left.
All the mercy she had left.
If you choose to go after her...
If they choose to come after me...
she swears...
I will fucking take them down.
And the streets will run with blue blood.
The streets will run with blue blood.
That's what she wanted me to tell you.
I'm begging you.
Please help me.
My wife...
Trooper Sanz, we thank you for your service and we promise you we will get justice.
I mean, it doesn't take a profiler to know Jade isn't really looking to go home to find peace.
No, but her choice of words is telling.
She wants to go home.
But you guys are saying this home hired the men who tried to kill her?
They tried to groom these perfectly pliable assassins.
But at some point along the way, something went wrong.
Maybe Damien struggled with doubts.
Maybe they all did, and whoever ran the program decided to cut their losses.
And cover their asses.
But bear with me.
What if these Gold Stars never recognized the strike team had been sent by their puppet master, but rather as proof that they were rocking the boat, that they were striking at the very heart of the conspiracy?
Anything's possible.
No, no.
But what I'm talking about is whether or not they were capable of distinguishing between friend and foe.
If you were manipulating them with a conspiracy theory, you would want to make sure they couldn't tell the difference between the two.
Oh, you'd make it impossible.
You'd gaslight these kids into thinking everybody is an enemy except for your fellow Gold Stars and yourself.
Exactly.
So it could be that to Dana and Jade, home is their original training ground.
But if I was Aida and I was trying to erase every trace of Gold Star, I'm dumping that site.
They could be using one of the alternate Stuart House sites.
Oh, speaking of, these are the ones from your records, correct?
Yes.
All right.
Let's concentrate on the ones closest to Jade's last known location.
Luke.
Dave.
You're not going to believe this, but we recovered a Haeberlin case from Jade's stolen Cherokee.
A kill kit?
Yeah.
It's empty.
There's nothing to suggest what was inside.
That son of a bitch.
But that's not all.
The cupping patterns in the tire impressions left behind, they match a stolen Charger that was just found abandoned near Castell Creek outside of Rockville, Maryland.
Penelope, bring up the map of Voit's buried kill kits.
Castell Creek is awfully close.
And I don't believe in coincidences.
Dave, we're heading to that location now.
We're right behind you.
All right, given what happened to Trooper Sanz, the locals will be restless.
We need to take charge of this scene.
You think they'll be out for blood?
I do, and it's exactly what Jade is hoping for.
We tried to warn them.
But Sanz's captain didn't want to wait, so he breached with two other officers.
Bunker was booby trapped with IEDs filled with shrapnel.
God damn it!
Is there anything left inside?
Of course there is.
That's why it wasn't rigged with an incendiary device.
We knew he read all your books, David.
This...
This is something else.
Jesus Christ.
There's no way he compiled all of this research.
He didn't have to do the research himself.
He had his network do it for him. "
From Sicarius to Gold Star with love."
He's put the target on our backs.
You think you can get away with threatening my team?
You motherfucker!
Open up this Goddamn cage!
No!
Do not open it!
Agent Rossi, you need to calm down.
You seem upset.
You got this schmuck to deliver a kill kit to Jade, which led her to your bunker and then to your target list.
David, we have been over all of this.
Benjamin Reeves, AKA the so-called "Sicarius Killer," is dead.
I don't know, maybe Jade Waters had a personal relationship with him.
I heard Benji was quite the ladies' man.
Shut up.
I'm just spitballing here, but maybe the crazy chick that Jade was, she slept with a serial killer, got his secrets, and then dug up that kit and bunker thing.
Bully for her.
You're not getting out of here.
It's not up to you.
Yeah, it's a done deal.
But I will miss our special time together.
I know you think you could Houdini out of Collymore, but Gen Pop is no place for a serial killer.
Dahmer.
Kibbe.
Harvey.
All of them died at the hands of other prisoners.
Because you build prison cred by spilling blood like yours.
Ooh.
Almost sounds like you're threatening me.
I'm just telling it like it is.
Well, just so that you don't have to worry about me, I am not going into Gen Pop as the rumored serial killer Elias Voit.
Tell him, Vinnie.
Based on the BAU's own affidavit, my client is being prosecuted and sentenced under his birth name.
Lee Duval.
And no one really knows who that guy is, do they?
I really think you need to leave, Agent Rossi.
Back the fuck up, counselor.
Toodles.
Frank Church in the flesh.
That's not what I expected.
Upon closer examination, Mr.
Church fails to meet many expectations.
Starting with his military background.
While the Aida Limited website boasts of Church's many honors, truth is he only served the three years required to pay for college.
So you're saying he's more of a salesman than a soldier-of-fortune?
Exactly.
It seems over the past few years, he's been pitching his company's ability to provide an elite group of "specialized mechanics."
Specialized in what way?
We'll need to ask him.
Unit Chief Emily Prentiss.
Have we met?
No.
I saw your mug shot on Politico.
You've been reinstated, I see.
I have.
And who is this "visitor"?
Tyler Green.
What are you doing here?
He's with military intelligence.
Is he?
How can I help you?
During the course of a federal homicide investigation, we uncovered a series of payments made by your Aida Limited to the clinicians on this list, as well as these deputy sheriffs in Utah, all of them connected to a troubled youth facility called Stuart House.
You've identified an offshore account of ours.
I'm curious because I never received a warrant.
As I said, it was uncovered during the course of a homicide investigation.
Multiple homicides.
Everyone on this list is dead.
Tell me, Mr.
Green, can you read my micro-expressions?
How did I respond when Agent Prentiss not so subtly accused me of, if not outright murder, then conspiracy to commit?
Your eye twitched.
Mm.
Did it?
Might all of this have something to do with a program called Gold Star?
That same offshore account transferred cryptocurrency into an escrow that paid these five men to murder these five young people, three of whom we've identified.
So, yes, Gold Star.
You know, the first time I heard about Gold Star was from this online lunatic, Brian Garrity.
Had to get a restraining order against him.
But I don't need to tell you because you assaulted the man.
Mr.
Church, your answers are all textbook non-denial denial.
Miss Prentiss, your questions are textbook gumshoe intimidation.
Which leaves me with a profound concern for the future of federal law enforcement.
But I guess I shouldn't be surprised when good men like Deputy Director Douglas Bailey are cut down and women like you are championed.
I'm putting a halt to this.
By order of Director Madison.
Rebecca, Church walked in here of his own Goddamn volition.
That's not the point.
No.
The point is, the Director has been running interference against us from the very beginning.
He's in Church's pocket, isn't he?
Just hold on.
I'll admit, at the start I thought Madison was compromised, but it turns out he's not.
In fact, all of his actions, including this one, have been meant to protect the BAU.
Oh, protect us?
Doug Bailey told Madison about Gideon and Rossi's white paper weeks before Voit ever even mentioned Gold Star.
Madison showed me Bailey's report.
Bailey?
How?
It was suspected that whoever ran Gold Star leaked the information as a warning.
God.
Because any investigation into Gold Star would reveal the white paper's existence, and it would look as though the BAU was responsible.
Now we've got Jade Waters on the loose, you invite Frank Church in, and Madison hears some rumor that there's a reporter doing a story with the headline "FBI's BAU Grooms Cop Killer."
Oh, that is such bullshit.
It's a classic threat of using the press to release a bunch of disinformation.
Call it whatever the hell you want.
You should have profiled that you can't go head to head with a guy like Church unless you're ready to take the gloves off, because he'd like nothing more than an excuse to set fire to the reputations of every division of law enforcement.
Bring it on.
Be careful what you wish for.
She's right.
We get one swing at Church.
That's all we'll need.
But if you miss...
We bring the Bureau down with us.
Douglas Bailey are cut down, and women like you are championed.
I'm putting a halt to this by order of Director Madison.
I've never seen Church before, and no one I worked with ever mentioned him.
But the man's malignant narcissism is impossible to miss.
Yeah, you can see how much he wants to brag about what he's done.
It was practically killing the guy, having to hold it all in.
He does have what the kids call "rizz."
Yep.
He does.
He reminds me of a cult leader.
I mean, you could see how it wouldn't be a problem for him to beat these kids into submission and then turn right around and present himself as their savior.
Which means it's possible Jade wants to come home to him.
And since Jade passed the test, maybe now he won't want to kill her.
Yeah, she passed her version of the final exam, hasn't she?
Wait.
I'm sorry.
Test?
Final exam?
For Church to...
May I?
For Church to make sure his conspiracy had taken hold, he'd conduct a confirmation test.
In this case, Jade killing Damien was confirmation of her commitment.
Okay, and I get that he hired a strike team to erase Gold Star.
But I find it highly improbable that Mr.
Charisma here is just going to accept failure.
No, he would not.
He'd start over.
But then where would he find his fresh batch of troubled teenagers?
And where would he groom them?
Gold Star.
Let them through.
They're here.
Bring them in.
Jade, I was worried I wouldn't see you again.
I am so glad Dana found you.
Welcome home.
Thank you.
Dana, well done.
Well done.
Jade and I...
We can't find Peter.
What about Aidan and Damien?
They're dead.
How?
The FBI killed Aiden in Utah, and they caught Damien.
But...
But you wouldn't let him suffer.
I couldn't let them put him back in a cage.
That's right.
Benton, take Jade to the dormitory.
You can relax.
Eat something.
Dana, could you stay behind for a few moments?
I think there may be a way we can track down Peter.
Okay.
Did she resist coming here?
Not at all.
But she is in contact with a friend of Damien's who is still in federal custody.
He directed her to this secret bunker filled with intel about a special unit of the FBI.
The Behavioral Analysis Unit?
Yes.
Yes.
Is that it?
I still have questions.
I know you do.
Mila!
What have I told you?
The feelings, they...
They cloud judgment.
Without clarity, you will not live to fight another day.
Our enemies are too many to attack without discipline.
I understand.
All right, let's run it out.
Go, go, go!
Come on.
Mila has overcome so much.
She has come so far.
She reminds me of you.
You know, you and the other Gold Stars, you made all this possible.
You've helped to free these young people.
Give them their lives back.
And afforded us the opportunity to teach them the skills they're going to need to defend themselves in the future.
I don't understand.
The...
The doctors Damien killed, the cops I killed...
these kids had nothing to do with that.
They weren't even there.
I understand it's difficult to see, but the truth is, what you and Damien did struck at the heart of the conspiracy.
They were forced to retreat.
We were able to save all these young people.
And once Dana brings Peter home...
we'll be able to move on to the next phase.
Come here.
I want to show you something.
We had to surrender our original training site, but fortunately we were able to get this one up and running very quickly.
Move it!
Get moving!
Move!
You motherfucker!
Get your ass in there!
No!
Jade, take my hand!
Get the fuck off me!
I know this place reminds you of Stuart House.
It used to be one of theirs, but we liberated it.
As you can see, we have everything we need to fulfill our mission.
Except Damien.
I know how difficult that must have been for you.
I just wasn't going to let them get their hands on him.
Yes, you did what you had to do.
What Damien wanted you to do.
Because you are so very strong.
You are an example.
A true inspiration to these young people.
Okay, we've got six possible sites, but we just can't go storming into each one looking for Jade and Dana.
No, that would be rash, so thank Goddess I have discovered something that will narrow your storming.
So I took brilliant Jill's description of the kind of troubled youth that Church might be selecting.
And then I did a search of missing juveniles with those markers.
And this young human has come to my attention, 16-year-old Mila Sandoval.
Now, her personal history reads not unlike that of Jade waters.
Yeah, right down to the domestic abuse.
That's right.
Now, Mila has been missing nearly eight months.
So behold this super suspect still photo.
Now, that is a still from a security camera located a mile away from Driscoll State Forest.
It was taken two weeks ago.
And that is Mila talking to a local deputy.
So why is she still missing?
Because this was never reported.
How is that possible?
Well, the same thing happened back in Utah.
Deputies Kelby and Ulrich, the ones that Jade killed, they were being paid off by Stuart House to track down and return runaway teens.
Penelope, can you ID this deputy from the patrol unit number?
I can.
I will.
I just did.
Clarence Millbrae.
Okay.
Have JJ and Luke bring him in.
Let's find out who he's moonlighting for.
I'm sorry to bother you.
Not at all.
Are you GS-Five?
Yeah, I am, but you can just call me Jade.
I've seen you.
You're vicious.
I've tried to be like you.
They tell us stories about you and the other Gold Stars.
Are you okay?
Come here.
You can talk to me.
They tell me I'm still suffering from memories of an awful place.
From where they rescued you?
Yeah.
Do you have nightmares?
Uh, yeah.
Sometimes.
I have this one in particular over and over.
It feels so real.
I wake up and I feel really sick.
Like I'm going to throw up.
And I can't see because there are these weird goggles over my eyes, and I can't move.
And someone comes into the room.
It's a man.
How do you know?
Because I can feel his hands on me.
And when he's done with me...
the goggles slip off just enough that I can see his face.
It's Mr.
Church.
Do you have a nightmare like that?
Yeah.
I do.
Come on.
Do you have nightmares?
I don't dream.
Not anymore.
Lucky you.
What they did to you...
you had it so much worse than any of us.
Sometimes I think I see his face, but...
I know it's a lie because the face I see is Mr.
Church.
What's wrong?
What if it's not a lie?
What are you talking about?
I don't know.
Church told us they could make us believe things that aren't true.
They could turn us against each other if we're not careful.
No, I know, I know.
I just...
What?
I just wish I'd protected you.
So with Deputy Millbrae's law enforcement career pretty much in the shitter, he was more than willing to give us the location of his part-time employer.
According to him, Aida's youth training center is right here in an unincorporated area that borders the Driscoll State Forest.
I got it.
Judge just approved it.
We have a warrant to search the training center for Mila Sandoval.
Fantastic.
Now have Penelope start coordinating with HRT and SWAT.
Now, when we get on scene, I want to divide and conquer.
Guys, uh, sorry, but I've worked alongside this type of mercenary overseas.
And as far as they're concerned, this might turn into more than just a police action.
They're combat ready.
Okay.
Important safety tip.
Suit up.
You're coming with.
We found Aida's training center.
You need to come with us.
Why?
To help with the kids.
With Jade.
I can't.
They're going to need your help.
They needed my help years ago.
Jill, this isn't your fault.
I bear some responsibility.
You don't.
David, please.
Besides, you know I can't bear to carry a gun.
I know.
Hang on.
You be safe.
No.
No!
You were always my favorite, Jade.
Motherfucker!
This is for your own good.

Requesting backup.
Copy that, main gate.
Backup's on their way.
Luke, are you and Tyler in position?
We're covering the southern access road onto the property.
Hold until I say so.
Copy.
Unit Chief Emily Prentiss, FBI.
We're here to execute a legal search warrant on...
I don't give a shit what that piece of paper says.
You are not setting foot on this property.
The FBI is here for Mila.
I know.
We've got them held up at the gate, and I'm sending reinforcements.
But they have a search warrant.
Get Mila.
Put her back down in The Ward with Jade.
Once that's done, radio me.
And I'll show the FBI around the "whole" facility myself.
Copy that, sir.
Mila.
Mila.
Hey, Mila.
Hey, I need you to get up.
Jade?
You and the others are in danger.
Danger?
But you're okay.
You got this and you...
you're ready.
I just need you to get everyone down to the access road at the south end, okay?
Do you hear me?
You don't let anyone stop you, okay?
Okay.
Anyone.
Here.
You radio me when you get there.
What about you?
I will be right behind you.
Okay?
I'll tell you, people got no respect for the law these days.
What the hell is happening?
A lot of guys with guns telling us you shall not pass.
Emily, seriously, do not escalate the situation.
It doesn't matter that the law is on your side.
The guys with the guns are the reality on the ground.
Please be careful.
Yes, Emily, I second and I third that emotion.
Do not stir the hornet's nest.
Well, this seems eerily familiar.
What, a cult leader threatening Armageddon?
Tara, let's head around the perimeter.
Try to get a better sight line on the dormitory.
Let's do it.
Well, what do you think?
If this douchebag wasn't such a narcissist like David Koresh, I'd think he was bluffing.
Yeah.
Me too.
But...
But there's actually a chance he'd be willing to fire on federal agents executing a search warrant.
Sir...
Jade, Mila, all of them.
They're all gone.
Emily.
What do you got?
Movement.
Rear of the dormitory building.
Copy that.
Go ahead and shoot me.
Everybody move in now!
Agent Prentiss is on the property.
Stand down.
Wise decision, boys.
Everyone move.
On me!
