- Cuban.
- What's the word, Sawyer?
Looks like a match.
Yeah, ilk Joe.
We've got a series.
Same M. O.,
same signature, no DNA.
Not one goddamn shred.
You said that already.
I'm doing everything I can.
Goddamn f***ing a**hole.
(under breath) F***.
I need to go see him.
Joe.
I think it's a mistake.
You're entitled to your own opinion.
Well, let me rephrase that.
I think it's a big mistake.
Apart from time and resources,
it's bringing an unknown into a...
- into a really bad situation,
- Not unknown at all.
I've worked with him before,
and he's actually my friend.
- You said he's unstable.
- I did not, Katherine.
I said he's had a hard time.
It's too early
for a Hail Mary, Joe.
You will learn it's never too early
for one of those.
Goddamn, are you seeing this?
I mean, look at all this. "
pretty green sh*t.
How long has
he lived out here?
Two years.
Ever since his daughter Emma died.
Leukemia. In his arms.
Gave up his medical practice.
Hell, he gave up everything.
What happened to his wife?
Well, therein lies
They bring some people
closer together...
...drives others apart.
There it is.
Do you mind staying here?
Let me talk to him alone?
- You could have left me in the city.
- I could've...
But you would have missed
Sentiment.
Yeah?
- John? It's Joe.
- Yeah, I know.
Are you gonna open the door?
I'd like to talk to you,
Nat interested.
John, I just drove three hours
to come and see you.
Come on. You know me well enough
to know that I'm not leaving,
And I'll kick down this door
if I have to.
A real pain in the ass.
Yeah. I've heard that before.
You know, I sent you a letter
like a year ago. Did you get it?
Yep.
What did it say, John?
"No parent should
outlive a child. "
- So you've been holed up here.
- Uh-huh.
I see you've settled in.
- It's a beautiful day out there.
- That's what they tell me.
So you don't get out much?
- Do you want a soda?
- No, thank you.
I don't have cigarettes.
I gave them up a few months ago.
Meet my new addiction.
Laura and the kid okay?
Yeah, they're good.
Thank you.
Heard from Elizabeth yet?
No.
You will.
So, besides wanting
to see you...
I've got a situation that
I'd like you to take a look at.
- I could just tell you about the victims,
- I'm not interested.
By the way,
who's your girlfriend?
That is my loyal partner,
Agent Cowles,
who apparently doesn't listen
to a f***ing word I say.
S.A.C., Joe.
I thought you might
want to take the call.
Excuse me, John.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- I brought the case tiles.
- It wasn't necessary.
The Agency has
changed the guidelines
for the way we break down
the cases.
It makes them more readable.
Oh. Well, that's a relief.
We gotta go.
Three murders,
Identical M,O.
Agent Cowles.
I'll leave the case files here.
John.
You okay?
If you change your mind
about this...
...you know where to ind me.
- Hey, Joe.
- John.
I make no promises.
I'll stay maybe one day.
Maybe one week.
Deal. No promises.
- You knew I'd come back?
- I had high hopes.
I should say "Dr. " Cowles,
- with a doctorate in...?
- Psychopathology,
She was to become a professor
before the bureau snagged her.
- You gave up academia for this madhouse?
- They let me carry a gun.
Wow! So sexy.
You two will
make a good team.
John, you know when and Katherine, you
know why someone's about to do something.
Run this through until we come out.
Dr. Clancy, before we go upstairs,
with all due respect,
I don't hold an ounce of confidence
in the paranormal as a Held.
I think it's a sham.
I hope (hat's okay.
No problem at all.
I feel the same about shrinks.
After only one thing,
your money.
They'll take your whole hand.
Whoever said that has obviously
never met a good one,
It was Sigmund Freud.
Like I said, a hell of a team.
method.
a puncture wound at the skull.
Inflicted by
a Eve-inch instrument.
It went straight into
the medulla oblongata.
Immediate, according to the coroner,
Painless execution.
- These photos are all post-mortem.
- A couple of them almost look alive.
No mistakes.
Crime scenes so far have yielded
no evidence of DNA, hair-fibers,
- shoe-prints, nothing.
- No witnesses, either.
Ward lived in a secured building.
On the psych front, it's unheard of.
There's no geographical, chronological
or astrological pattern
to the murder.
No robbery.
Other than thah
we got a good handle on this case.
John?
John.
Yeah.
Robert Ellis,
the kid in Mount Pleasant.
- He was eating ice cream.
- He was.
Where do you want to start,
John?
Well...
...at the beginning?
The residence of
Mrs. Ethel Jackson, age 69.
She lived alone with three cats.
Was a regular at church.
Landlady grew suspicious when she
hadn't seen or talked to her in two days.
She was found killed
in that rocking chair.
On the TV,
And the note we were looking at earlier?
Was here,
On this table.
My wife.
I need to take this.
Sweetheart, I...
- What do you make of the note?
- As a shrink?
- Yeah,
- it's a classic riddle.
"I will tell you in two words who I am,
what I do and how I live. May I?"
Taunting questions
designed to mislead.
