Great news Our cuddler rapist wants to talk.
I thought he was refusing to be interviewed Apparently, a week and a half in solitary made him very lonely I sent him a note with the DNA evidence tying him to two of the bodies He knows the jig is up; he probably wants to brag about his exploits Good.
What about the wife?
She still won't talk.
We don't know what she knew She seems harmless We'll find out for sure tomorrow We rarely talk to someone who's taken a shot at us Usually it's the next of kin Look, man I swear I didn't know you guys was cops Look I see white boys bust in my house, man, instincts kick in What's your name, shithead?

Do you want me to lose my Realtor's license?
I don't like this Lying to the US Government, with the Homeland "Securities" and all?
Uh-uh Ma, this is important If they find out that I failed to report this bonus, I could be in serious trouble How serious?
Look, Stella If there's one thing the government does right, it's collect taxes.
I hate askin' you to do this- we both do- but it'll cost us, kill our careers I mean, even if we had to split the rest of the bonus with you- How much is that?
Few grand?
Yeah Yeah Three or four I'll do it for Mara Mrs Faulks You're bringing in my husband, isn't that right?
He's agreed to make a statement I need to talk to him first That's not possible Why not?
You can make arrangements to visit him at CountyJail You don't think I've tried?
I've already tried He won't see me He won't talk to me You have an innocent and scared man in prison His DNA matched semen recovered from the victims I've heard about DNA labs in Los Angeles, and that means nothing If you'd agree to an interview with me- Why?
So you can frame me?
So I can clear you of any involvement In rapes and murders?
When's a good time for us to speak?
I need to talk to him first I need to talk to you Well, I already said no Then there's not much reason for you to be here Buzz me Gimme some money I know you got some Pasty-ass bitch-ass!

Del Rubio owns a piece of the racetrack And AGC is the clearinghouse for all their dirty profits?
Them and who knows what other bad guys Their drug running just helps 'em clean the cash Without hard evidence, we can't target people for owning part of a business If we can sting this Lewis Sperling on a drug distribution we'll get him to roll on everybody else You net the octopus, follow the tentacles, get the ink What do you need?
Well, Lewis interviews all the mules personally and since we lost the Decoy Squad, I'm gonna need a female to meet him I was thinkin' Sofer Danny?
She's never gone under -She can fit the bill.
And if this Trick doesn't pop up soon...
Lewis is gonna get suspicious I don't like cutting a deal with some prick who fired on an officer Me either But if this breaks right it'll be the biggest case you and me'll ever see It'll set crime in Farmington back 20 years Okay Send her in Let me tell you somethin', black The only difference between you and me is I was baptized in dirty water Yeah.
Priors for vagrancy.
In and out of psych wards.
We should turn this guy over to MEU for evaluation They're blinkin' at me The son of man has eyes of fire When do I see the judge?
Be patient.

I have one condition before we start.
You don't get conditions I want a grilled cheese on sourdough a few strips ofbacon on the side, not on the sandwich...
some fries and a Pepsi Okay Thanks.
I've never seen Joanna that upset She can't understand why you won't take her phone calls or see her This doesn't need to touch her any more than it has to If she's involved, you can't protect her forever.
You think she's involved?
I don't know what to think She won't talk to us until she talks to you Bring her up here I'll get her to cooperate Then you and I don't have to worry about it Matthew bit another classmate this morning Another one?
When- I was gonna tell you Is the other child okay?
He broke the skin It required tetanus shots The last couple of weeks, Matthew's been a serious problem It's starting to influence the other students You know what?
That's about the time we lost his in-house therapist.
We're still looking for a replacement.
We've decided to increase his one-on-one...
then reevaluate whether to bring him back into the fold Wait You're isolating him?
For the safety of the other children How's he supposed to learn to socialize if you won't let him near other kids?
Maybe the one-on-one's gonna help We're payin' 'em 25 grand a year so he won't get stuck in a public school broom closet We'll continue to work with Matthew as best we can But if he injures another child, we're going to have to ask you to find another school Please don't do that What school is gonna take an autistic kid that you've branded as being violent?
Bring back Owen He took a job in Phoenix We had a fight I couldn't bring him back now even if I wanted to and, uh, there's a waiting list at the service for qualified therapists I'll come by tonight, talk to Matt about the biting I'll set him straight I'd like to talk to him alone I'm sorry I can't allow that Why not?
It's against policy.
Change the goddamn policy Jo, stop it.
This won't take that long.
Did you tell them you didn't do this?
I hate that you got dragged into it It's all right It's a mistake All we have to do now is figure out how to get you back home Any questions he asks,just answer You're not involved, so just tell the truth Neither one of us is involved I did it,Jo.
I raped those women I killed them I brought you things from their houses.
They making you say that?
Joanna, I did it.
No Best-case scenario is I'm going to prison for life so you need to move on with yours We're never gonna see each other again after today, understand?
I won't ever agree to see you People are staring at me like I- The school has told me not to show up until this is all settled There's cameras There's helicopters flying over our house People are throwing trash on our lawn What do I do, Will?
What am I supposed to tell people?
She needs to leave My mother said I was a bad wife to you.
Was I a bad wife?
Take her away, or I won't talk Tell me Was I supposed to know?
Was I supposed to know this, that you were- All right.
Let's go.
Look No gun No wire We'll be out front but basically, you're on your own What's goin' on?
Danny's interviewing with Lewis You're kiddin' me You and Lem back her up We'll be with knucklehead I always thought when I finally went undercover, it'd be as a hooker Don't lose that dream Ronnie, hook up Danny with a fake ID And toss Shane's buddy here in the cage for safekeeping.
Get up A case this big is good for us in a hundred different ways How'd it go with Mara's mom?
Okay, I think The feds want her to stop in when she gets back to Indio What?
I'm gone a couple hours, all of a sudden we're in bed with a cop killer?
Aceveda signed off.
As long as you and Aceveda are cool with it What are you pouting for?
He took a shot at me, and no one seems to give a shit!
He's gonna do time for that.
Not enough!
Look, what are we doing to prep Mara's mom for her face-to-face with the feds?
Maybe next raid, I'll catch that bullet, and you won't have to worry about a connection You can just lay it all at my door Man.
You're under arrest for three murders and seven rapes.
I'm guilty of all those crimes.
Are there any other crimes you'd like to confess to at this time?
No.
I just did the three murders and the seven rapes.
What about your wife?
How could Joanna not know what you were doing?
I was good She didn't You were out all day scoping your victims, out all night raping them Did she ever wonder where you were?
I told her I was working or writing She never called to check up on you?
She never had reason to She didn't see that side of me You were married for eight years She didn't wanna see it Being married doesn't mean you know what's in a person's heart.
You married?
No.
Ever or anymore?
Anymore You leave her or she leave you?
When you were married to her, did you know what she wanted?
What was really in her heart then?
Or did you only find out later when she was gone?
We're deaf and blind here Be ready for anything Yeah.
Copy.
Dude, what was that back in the clubhouse?
-Just 'cause we're on this team doesn't mean we can't become a problem If there's one thing Vic's good at, it's solving problems Dude, Vic's never gonna kick you off the team.
If Vic ever thought me and Mara were becoming a problem, you'd let me know, wouldn't ya?
A regular customer.
Strictly recreational.

I said I'd check He's indicated to me you're not involved You're cleared I'm cleared?
You should go home Oh, because I'm innocent?
People think I'm guilty of living with him and of not telling them he was a monster.
You're not guilty How does a wife not know?
How does she live with somebody and love him and not know that he's- Ask him that Ask him where my life goes now and then tell me what his answer is You got the directions.

What?
You borrow too much money from that shark?
How much you into him for?
Enough that I need this job Well, get to work What's your sex life with Joanna like?
Good Yeah?
Just like anyone else, huh?
She's never been big on blow jobs- thinks they're demeaning Other than that- You'd say you have a normal sex life?
Yeah.
Why?
You still thinking I'm impotent?
You shouldn't have gone on TV and told people I was something I wasn't.
It's just the profile of the kind of man who rapes elderly women- There's usually a sexual dysfunction at work "Profile"?
You think I'm a chapter in a book?
I just think you're exaggerating your prowess Yeah?
Why don't you ask my goddamned wife that?
She'll tell you.
You're talking to me about profiles I'm trying to tell you the truth here You raped seven elderly women...
Nothing to do with Joanna and cuddled with them for hours Why old ladies, Will?
You think I resented my mother or something?
You're digging the wrong hole Point me to the right one Maybe I picked 'em because they were old, and they couldn't fight back You ever think about that?
What went through your head as you were waiting for them to come home?
Did you plan exactly how you were gonna rape them?
I didn't go there to rape them I went there to kill them The first four, you just raped To set the table The cuddling was just to keep them calm...
while I decided whether to go through with it or not If not, I just left Bullshit Killing somebody is about the most selfish thing you can do Taking away all the moments they've got left just so you can feel that thing for one moment The victims I chose didn't have much life left anyway It just seemed less selfish on my part Everything on track?
Yeah.
We'rejust swappin'out scrips for dummy dope.
I'm on my way to Lancaster to make the drop, see who's on the other side I filled in the assistant chief He's pretty excited Yeah We all are And no problems?
No I talked to Ronnie Trick hasn't been home or to his mom's That means he's gotta collect some cash to get outta Dodge Yeah Hey You were Trick's shakedown muscle Who owed him money?

Pussy Over here Over here Go on Let go, man!

Hey!
Come on, man Shut your face I'll take one with everything on it, huh?
Let's go back to when you first moved to Los Angeles Why?
There are a few open cases from then I'd like to talk about I didn't do anything back then.
Serial offenders start earlier than 39 It's more book stuff You're just telling me the truth about the crimes I've already got you on Why would I lie?
Why would you rape?
Why would you kill?
I came here so you could tell me Do you know what it's like to have a passion-a thing that drives you...
that consumes your thoughts-but never to be able to say a word about it...
to your parents, to your best friend, to your wife?
I came here to talk about this thing, to finally be able to talk about it to share it with someone- to have you tell me why I do it Can you help me or not?
Yes Then tell me why- why do I do it?
Am I just sick?
No.
You're an organized sociopath with tendencies toward- No.
That's just labels.
Just tell me why I do it.
To dominate To feel that- No That's not right To exert your power over- No.
You're compelled to By what?
Organized sociopaths tend to- - Is that who you think you were chasing this whole time?
A type?
Some answer on an exam?
Who would you be chasing right now if you hadn't stumbled over my parking tickets?
But I did find your parking tickets What happens if the next guy reads the street signs?
Over here Here you go Tell 'em your name Where's Shane?
Booking a suspect.
I'll have him give you a call.
I need to talk to him about Treasury I can't talk about it on the phone You sure as hell can't talk about it here They left another message for my mother to meet them tomorrow What does that mean?
Shane's coachin' her She'll be just fine No Everything's not fine We need to get to- Look You've done what you were supposed to do Now, leave Not until I know what the plan is Would you stop talking like you're a part of my goddamn team?
You sucked us into this shit storm and I'll get us out but not with you chirping in my face!
I want you to do something, I'll have Shane let you know You have questions you keep 'em to yourself, you sit at home and keep your mouth shut Look at y'all You got nothin' real Bitch, we got Trick downstairs you distributing illegal pharmaceuticals, possession and intent to sell Those scrips you moved came from across state lines We're talkin' RICO That's at least 10 years With the feds, you won't be out in less than eight Tell us who's doin'what at A.G.C.

Trust me That's long Meet our star witness Hey, boss Callan a friend of yours?
He didn't have friends.
He, uh- He had issues So who tried to suffocate him?
I don't know This was found in your shopping cart This is the same kind of rope found tied around a bag over Callan's head He was always stirrin' things up, pickin' fights, stealin' stuff babblin' his blackJesus shit But I didn't put no bag on his head.
So someone else got your rope.
Must have Come on.
No one gets near your cart without a fight, isn't that right?
I need a drink I'll give you what you want, but I'm not doin' any time Out of the question I'm talkin' 'bout handin' you gangstas, brokers producers, businessmen, dealers- even throw in a few Republicans But like I said- no time Not a day under 10 Okay Ten Good As long as you subtract a year for every conviction I get you End of the day, you gonna owe me time Thank you I need a name.

I told her we were taking care of it and not her She was just tryin'to help.
We don't need her help She's in this too Deep In waters we know how to swim.
She starts drownin: she's gonna take us all down.
You could show her a little more respect Why?
She stole money from you.
Look, man.
You've known us for years.
She's gonna be gone in a couple of months.
We all see itJust because you can't doesn't mean I'm gonna let her be the thing that splits us apart.
Ayear from now, you're gonna be thankin' me You talked about a "thing" What?
Twice now...
talked about a "thing" at the moment when- Yeah Explain that to me Have you ever killed something before?
Ants.
Bigger When I was a kid, I found a bird on the ground, barely moving I felt bad, so I stepped on it What did you feel the moment your foot came down?
I was scared No Listen When I was a kid, I brought a puppy home one day My father told me never to bring home a stray so he made me go down to the stream and drown it He gave me a bag and some rope, and I walked down a hill to this stream, got ready to drown this puppy but it didn't seem right to kill it just because my dad said so So I took it out of the bag, and I started petting it Just kept on petting it until I kind of found myself choking it.
There's a look in a thing's eyes- people too- right before they die They're on the edge of this great big hole, and they'll do anything not to fall in And at that last moment, looking into their eyes- You see the face of God No Well, yes, but that's not what the "thing" is The thing's not in their eyes It's in here It's feeling this- Power?
No Intimacy?
No Compassion?
I'd like to go back to my cell now What?
You can't help me I heard you were still here I'm sorry I- I wanted to get the names and addresses of the victims'families...
because I- I wanted to write them to tell them how sorry I am Um, that's probably not a good idea right now Maybe later Oh, because obviously there must be something I can do A charity or something Just tell me what it is Just tell me what I should be doing I can't help you You know, Mara taking the money and her mom involved- Shane feels pretty bad about it all.
It's not his fault Will you tell him that?
He knows Hejust wants to feel like we're not turning our backs on him.
We're not He wants to feel safe He is He's part of this team Well, Terry was part of this team too And?

Well, Lewis interviews all the mules personally and since we lost the Decoy Squad, I'm gonna need a female to meet him I was thinkin' Sofer Danny?
She's never gone under -She can fit the bill.
And if this Trick doesn't pop up soon...

I've never seen Joanna that upset She can't understand why you won't take her phone calls or see her This doesn't need to touch her any more than it has to If she's involved, you can't protect her forever.
You think she's involved?
I don't know what to think She won't talk to us until she talks to you Bring her up here I'll get her to cooperate Then you and I don't have to worry about it Matthew bit another classmate this morning Another one?
When- I was gonna tell you Is the other child okay?
He broke the skin It required tetanus shots The last couple of weeks, Matthew's been a serious problem It's starting to influence the other students You know what?
That's about the time we lost his in-house therapist.
We're still looking for a replacement.
We've decided to increase his one-on-one...
then reevaluate whether to bring him back into the fold Wait You're isolating him?
For the safety of the other children How's he supposed to learn to socialize if you won't let him near other kids?
Maybe the one-on-one's gonna help We're payin' 'em 25 grand a year so he won't get stuck in a public school broom closet We'll continue to work with Matthew as best we can But if he injures another child, we're going to have to ask you to find another school Please don't do that What school is gonna take an autistic kid that you've branded as being violent?
Bring back Owen He took a job in Phoenix We had a fight I couldn't bring him back now even if I wanted to and, uh, there's a waiting list at the service for qualified therapists I'll come by tonight, talk to Matt about the biting I'll set him straight I'd like to talk to him alone I'm sorry I can't allow that Why not?
It's against policy.
Change the goddamn policy Jo, stop it.
This won't take that long.
Did you tell them you didn't do this?
I hate that you got dragged into it It's all right It's a mistake All we have to do now is figure out how to get you back home Any questions he asks,just answer You're not involved, so just tell the truth Neither one of us is involved I did it,Jo.
I raped those women I killed them I brought you things from their houses.
They making you say that?
Joanna, I did it.
No Best-case scenario is I'm going to prison for life so you need to move on with yours We're never gonna see each other again after today, understand?
I won't ever agree to see you People are staring at me like I- The school has told me not to show up until this is all settled There's cameras There's helicopters flying over our house People are throwing trash on our lawn What do I do, Will?
What am I supposed to tell people?
She needs to leave My mother said I was a bad wife to you.
Was I a bad wife?
Take her away, or I won't talk Tell me Was I supposed to know?
Was I supposed to know this, that you were- All right.
Let's go.
Look No gun No wire We'll be out front but basically, you're on your own What's goin' on?
Danny's interviewing with Lewis You're kiddin' me You and Lem back her up We'll be with knucklehead I always thought when I finally went undercover, it'd be as a hooker Don't lose that dream Ronnie, hook up Danny with a fake ID And toss Shane's buddy here in the cage for safekeeping.

He took a shot at me, and no one seems to give a shit!
He's gonna do time for that.
Not enough!
Look, what are we doing to prep Mara's mom for her face-to-face with the feds?
Maybe next raid, I'll catch that bullet, and you won't have to worry about a connection You can just lay it all at my door Man.
You're under arrest for three murders and seven rapes.
I'm guilty of all those crimes.
Are there any other crimes you'd like to confess to at this time?
No.
I just did the three murders and the seven rapes.
What about your wife?
How could Joanna not know what you were doing?
I was good She didn't You were out all day scoping your victims, out all night raping them Did she ever wonder where you were?
I told her I was working or writing She never called to check up on you?
She never had reason to She didn't see that side of me You were married for eight years She didn't wanna see it Being married doesn't mean you know what's in a person's heart.
You married?
No.
Ever or anymore?
Anymore You leave her or she leave you?
When you were married to her, did you know what she wanted?
What was really in her heart then?
Or did you only find out later when she was gone?
We're deaf and blind here Be ready for anything Yeah.
Copy.
Dude, what was that back in the clubhouse?
-Just 'cause we're on this team doesn't mean we can't become a problem If there's one thing Vic's good at, it's solving problems Dude, Vic's never gonna kick you off the team.

I said I'd check He's indicated to me you're not involved You're cleared I'm cleared?
You should go home Oh, because I'm innocent?
People think I'm guilty of living with him and of not telling them he was a monster.
You're not guilty How does a wife not know?
How does she live with somebody and love him and not know that he's- Ask him that Ask him where my life goes now and then tell me what his answer is You got the directions.

Good Yeah?
Just like anyone else, huh?
She's never been big on blow jobs- thinks they're demeaning Other than that- You'd say you have a normal sex life?
Yeah.
Why?
You still thinking I'm impotent?
You shouldn't have gone on TV and told people I was something I wasn't.
It's just the profile of the kind of man who rapes elderly women- There's usually a sexual dysfunction at work "Profile"?
You think I'm a chapter in a book?
I just think you're exaggerating your prowess Yeah?
Why don't you ask my goddamned wife that?
She'll tell you.
You're talking to me about profiles I'm trying to tell you the truth here You raped seven elderly women...
Nothing to do with Joanna and cuddled with them for hours Why old ladies, Will?
You think I resented my mother or something?
You're digging the wrong hole Point me to the right one Maybe I picked 'em because they were old, and they couldn't fight back You ever think about that?
What went through your head as you were waiting for them to come home?
Did you plan exactly how you were gonna rape them?
I didn't go there to rape them I went there to kill them The first four, you just raped To set the table The cuddling was just to keep them calm...
while I decided whether to go through with it or not If not, I just left Bullshit Killing somebody is about the most selfish thing you can do Taking away all the moments they've got left just so you can feel that thing for one moment The victims I chose didn't have much life left anyway It just seemed less selfish on my part Everything on track?
Yeah.
We'rejust swappin'out scrips for dummy dope.
I'm on my way to Lancaster to make the drop, see who's on the other side I filled in the assistant chief He's pretty excited Yeah We all are And no problems?

He didn't have friends.
He, uh- He had issues So who tried to suffocate him?

So someone else got your rope.
Must have Come on.
No one gets near your cart without a fight, isn't that right?
I need a drink I'll give you what you want, but I'm not doin' any time Out of the question I'm talkin' 'bout handin' you gangstas, brokers producers, businessmen, dealers- even throw in a few Republicans But like I said- no time Not a day under 10 Okay Ten Good As long as you subtract a year for every conviction I get you End of the day, you gonna owe me time Thank you I need a name.

I was scared No Listen When I was a kid, I brought a puppy home one day My father told me never to bring home a stray so he made me go down to the stream and drown it He gave me a bag and some rope, and I walked down a hill to this stream, got ready to drown this puppy but it didn't seem right to kill it just because my dad said so So I took it out of the bag, and I started petting it Just kept on petting it until I kind of found myself choking it.
There's a look in a thing's eyes- people too- right before they die They're on the edge of this great big hole, and they'll do anything not to fall in And at that last moment, looking into their eyes- You see the face of God No Well, yes, but that's not what the "thing" is The thing's not in their eyes It's in here It's feeling this- Power?
No Intimacy?
No Compassion?
I'd like to go back to my cell now What?
You can't help me I heard you were still here I'm sorry I- I wanted to get the names and addresses of the victims'families...
