" Are you done with this?" " Yeah." "And how much long do you think..." " Karen, I'm working." " Yeah." "And you're working at work all day, too." "I need some help." "What?" "Well, for starters, Hector's coming by to paint on Friday, and... the room is not ready." "I can't take the crib down by myself." "Yeah, well I've got 10 homicides, 3 different field offices and I have to match them against our files for tomorrow." "So..." "I can't look at the crib right now." "I know." "To have a child growing inside of you is a gift." "We give thanks for that gift, namaste." "I'll tell you what's a gift:" "bladder control." "I thought I was the only one peeing myself." "I'll be giving this back in two minutes." "Bye, Lydia." "Bye, Cheryl." "Over here!" "Step back, please." "I found her." "I don't think she's breathing." "No pulse." "I'm going 10 c. c. of adrenaline." " Should I send up a defib?" " Not yet." "Check her wound, try to stop the bleeding." " I see the baby." " What?" "I see a foot." "The amnionic sac must have ruptured." " How is she looking?" " Not good." "Go for it." " Oh, my God." " What is it?" "Mike!" "Episode 8 AIDAN" "Subtitles by:" "Nathbot" "Cheryl Ann Monroe." "32, Studio City." "The body was found six hours ago." "Prelim forensics say she died of systemic shock and severe blood loss to a tear in the abdomen." " Murder weapon?" " Unknown at present." " Witnesses?" " Not that we know of." "The car was parked across the street at a yoga studio." "She was there last night attending a yoga pre-natal class." "She was pregnant." "The coroner says 7.5 months, but it's hard to pin down exactly... without the foetus." "So we're looking for a baby?" "Coroner says no." "The extraction was hardly surgical." "The foetus would not have survived." "People..." "We are looking for a body." "This size." "This was taken of what's left of Cheryl Monroe's uterus." "The police think that's a signature." "First in a series." "We've been asked to act before the UNSUB strikes again." "Most women..." "Most pregnant women who are victims of homicide are usually murdered by their baby's father." "This baby doesn't have a father, technically speaking." "According to the paperwork of the Zen Life Yoga Center," "Cheryl Monroe was artificially inseminated." "We're trying to contact her OB." "The desacration of the victim indicates something more than just a termination of an unwanted pregnancy." "It's a message." "We just have to figure out what it means." "Paul, Carter's put together a list of all women in the victim's class." "Take Mel and Danny, split up." "Interview everybody." "Find out if they saw or heard anything suspicious." " Right." " Web?" "Danny and I can probably handle the interviews..." "You'll cover a lot more ground the three of you." "Rebecca, you'll come with me." " Does he even realize?" " Yeah, he just doesn't care." "Care about what?" "Paul." "Dead baby." "Hasn't been that long since Karen lost theirs." "And you're worried that he might become a detriment to our investigation." "I'm worried about our friend." " Lydia Osterland?" " Yes." "FBI." "Can I ask you a few questions?" " Hannah Davies?" " Yes." "Special Agent Sim, FBI." "Can I ask you a couple of questions?" " Betty Scarwid?" " Yes." "Special Agent Paul Ryan of the FBI." "I'm sorry." "Are you in a pre-natal yoga class at the Zen Life Studio?" "I was, until about 6 weeks ago." "Why?" "Did something happen?" "Cheryl?" "Oh, my God." "Did she...?" "We just need to know what you saw last night." "Nothing." "I..." "Class ended, I walked to my car." "What about Cheryl?" "What was her mood?" "Did she seem nervous or agitated?" "No, not at all." "She was relaxed and joking around." " Did you see her leave?" " Yes, she left right before I did." "It's night, you're pregnant." "But it's a safe area, it's well lit, you feel comfortable." "Your car is parked over there and somehow... you end up around that corner, butchered." "How did you get there?" "Did she ever make it to her car?" "Ask her." "No sign of a struggle here." "It's unlocked." "Car's parked so close to the yoga center that maybe she left it unlocked when she went in." "They have herbal tea inside, don't they?" "Tea ring, but no tea cup." "So, she gets to her car... tea cup in one hand." "Was she carrying anything else?" "Well her bag and all the contents were scattered there in the alley." "3 feet from where the body was." "So, where is it?" "She took it with her." "Something drew her here." "Or someone." "Cheryl Monroe knew her killer." "Jake?" "Who's Jake?" "Cheryl's boyfriend." "Her baby's father." "Have you told him yet?" "Uh, I thought Cheryl had been artificially inseminated." "What?" "No." "That was her joke." "She called Jake her "sperm donor" because he... you know, was so generous with it." "Right." "Anyway, I guess he wasn't her boyfriend anymore." " She had broken it off with him." " And how did Jake feel about that?" "Well, I really didn't know him." "I barely knew Cheryl, I've only been in the class for 2 weeks." "She did mention that he'd been calling, sending cards and flowers." "One night, he was waiting outside for her after class." "Do you recall when it was?" "It must have been my first night there." "So about 2 weeks ago?" "And I think again that same week." "He's a pretty persistent guy." "Well she's carrying his child." "But she didn't want anything to do with him?" "Well I think..." "I think she just wanted to know he'd be there for her and the baby." "You're sure you don't wanna come in?" "Happy hour, if you hadn't noticed, so I can get you something too." "No, that's ok." "I'm good, thank you." "Do you think he'd ever hurt her?" "Jake?" "He loved her." "She wasn't afraid." "She went willingly." " Something changed." " Yes." "He did." "The killer." " Has the dumpster been checked?" " Yeah." "Something's missing." "Got you." "He wasn't waiting here with a weapon." "These belong to the victim." "He didn't come here to kill." "What was the last time you saw your girlfriend, Jake?" "Which one?" "Let's start with the dead one." "Work our way from there." "Who's that?" "Not Kelly, I just saw her this morning." "Heard you guys picked up a suspect." "Baby daddy's name is Jacob Carrington." "Cheryl Monroe's Mister Wrong." "Name came up in all our interviews." "Guy's practically a baby himself, and he's already made 4 of his own." "4 different women, that's 4 monthly child support hits." "About to make it five until this morning." " What's that?" " Murder weapon." " Belonged to the victim." " Weapon of opportunity." "Tracks crime of passion." "Full skinny on the yoga studio." "Women from the vic's class, plus... names of the individuals who registered there in the last six months." "Easy, he's gonna start crying for a lawyer." "Hey, what's that, pick that away from me!" "What are you, sick?" "Did you buy this for Cheryl?" "Or did you take it from one of the other 4 kids, maybe hoping Cheryl would come back to you?" "Cheryl?" "I thought this was about Mandy and that dope thing." " Wait, something happened to Cheryl?" " Yeah, Jake." "You." "You happened to her." " My God." " Ok, harsh." "Oh, oh." "No wonder he's on edge." "Look who we geniuses sent him to interview." "Where did you say this came from?" "Yoga class, Web wanted a full school roster." "The owner wasn't in a big hurry to give up the confidential client information." "...any idea who might have done that?" "Maybe she had a new boyfriend!" "Maybe her boyfriend didn't want it!" "Nope, not a new boyfriend." "Maybe it was an abortion that went wrong..." "Jake, she was 8 months pregnant." "She wanted the baby." " Come on, you gotta think hard!" " I don't know man, I don't know anything!" "Stop the interview." "Oh, God, where's the baby?" "No, Jake." "Where's the body?" "Mr Carrington, I have to ask you to please step outside." "Want some water?" "What's going on?" "Betty Scarwid." "She dropped out of the class." "You interviewed her." "Yeah, she had a baby." "No." "According to the private records at the yoga studio, she left the class because she lost the baby." "Paul, she had a miscarriage." "According to the summary of the report of your interview with her, you said you saw her baby, Aidan." "Yes." "P aul..." "Are you sure you saw it?" "Yes, I'm sure." "It was a small appartment, the crib was right there." "And you looked inside?" "Did you look inside?" "Paul, nobody's gonna blame you if you didn't feel comfortable..." "Blame me?" "For what?" "Look, there was a baby." "She was feeding it." "And you saw her feed it." "Did you hear it?" "Dit it make a noise?" "Laughed, cried..." "So..." "What are you saying?" "That the baby in the crib..." "No." "I never actually saw it." "Then, I think we need to go back there." "With a warrant." "Ok, Aidan." "Are you snugly?" "Ready for the park?" "Yeah." "And she was about here?" "She opened the door, I identified myself." "That's where you noticed she was no longer pregnant." "And then what?" "I stood about here for the rest of the interview." " Where was she?" " At the crib." "So, you didn't approach any closer?" "You didn't actually see the baby." "No." "The mobile was on?" "So she's here doting maternally over what's likely a corpse... the FBI is at the door... she evidences no sign of stress." "In fact she invites you in, right?" "People, I don't think this woman is on the run." "I think she's gone out." "Lock, catalog everything but put it back exactly where you got it." "Rodney, keep the APB, put two units by the front door." "This woman is coming back." "Guys?" "You might wanna take a look at this." "Baby shower." "Almost two months ago." "A baby sling." "Thank you Jeannie!" "Ok, she's naming the gifters." "I want to talk to all of them." "Addresses might be in there." "Also we gonna want to chat with this guy." "The father?" "According to records, she wasn't married." "She was wearing a ring." "That's the only photo of the guy I could find." "Yeah." "Who, where, and soon." "One PFC special coming right up." " I thought you could use the practice." " Oh, thank you, Kim." "Am I imagining this or is that a kick?" "Oh, it's amazing." "Sir, may I have a word with you in private?" " You have a theory." " A request." "I think you need to take Paul off this case." "It's too personal for him." "That's his usual line to me regarding you." "You wanna guess my stock response?" "That's why he's on the case." " Trauma brings insight." " Or it can blind you." "Sir, Paul's experience is not equivalent to what our suspect has gone through." " Just a suggestion." " You're right." "Paul didn't suffer a loss first hand." "Maybe it's not his insight we should be seeking." "Look at'em go." "With all that energy, God, how are we gonna be able to keep up?" "Children don't drain energy, they give it." "You'll see." " When are you due?" " Not soon enough." "About two weeks." "It's our first." "And at my age, probably our last." " You sure have a quiet one." " Always." "Weren't you at my yoga class, for a while?" "Yeah!" "Yeah, I think so, I..." "I had to drop out." "I can see why." " Lydia." " Betty." "And this is Aidan." " Karen?" " Back here." " Rebecca?" " Yeah." "Thanks for letting me come by." "Yeah, no problem." "Are you sure?" "Yeah." "Sorry." "It's just, you're a little..." "Paul didn't tell me how beautiful you were." "Thanks." "So, everything's ok with Paul... but you were in the neighbourhood and you just wanna talk?" "Yeah." "I just..." "I wanted to..." "I'm sorry about everything that happened." "Thank you." "And I'm intruding." "So I'm gonna go, actually." "No, no." "No, please." "It's..." "It's ok." "I appreciate it." "Can I ask you something?" "Of course." "Has Paul said anything about what happened?" "No." "No, he hasn't." "I think it's still too painful." "I think he blames himself." "Really?" "Because I thought he blamed me." "I'm sure he doesn't think that." "Do you?" "Everyone keeps telling me that it..." "It wasn't meant to be." "That he wasn't meant to be." "But if that's true, then, why do I still feel this way?" "Feel...?" "Like I'm still pregnant." " Be careful!" " Right." " Are you two ok?" " We're fine." "Wow, nothing phases him, does it?" " He's a deep sleeper." " Yeah, I guess so." "Well, that just started my next pit stop." "So, excuse me while I waddle." "I'll go with you." "I think it's time to change him." "Ok." "The phenomenology here is psychotic denial." "Psychotic denial of a pregnancy is a major cause of foetal abuse and neonaticide... and it's not what we're dealing with here." "I believe what we are looking at is the extreme inverse." "Call it..." "Psychotic pretention." "Is she allowed to just make up terms?" "Well, you can call it whatever you want." "But basically, Betty Scarwid is insane." "She believes she didn't lose her baby to miscarriage and instead... she believes she gave birth to a healthy baby boy." "So you're proposing that she's using the doll to support her delusion." "I think the doll is the key." "My guess is that she named it Aidan like she was planning to do for her son..." "Probably dressed him up in the clothes she had took him for a stroll, wanted to show him off?" "She did." "To Cheryl Monroe." "Who took one look at him and wondered why little Aidan had "Made in Taiwan" stamped on his butt and why his butt was plastic." "Like they say, never wake a sleepwalker." "Especially a psychotic one." "What lead you to his?" "The doll." "It wasn't a desacration but it still had meaning." "She was using it to cover her tracks..." "But not from us." "From herself." " She was making a switch?" " Maintaining the balance." "And when Cheryl Monroe confronted her about the truth," "Betty's psychosis found a way to... protect the lie." "She convinced herself that her baby was inside Cheryl Monroe and that the thing she was holding actually belonged to Cheryl." "So she gave it back." "And even though Cheryl's baby didn't survive the attack..." "It's still her baby, it's still Aidan." "And until someone tells her otherwise..." "To her, he's alive." "You think she'll want to show this one off too?" "Yeah." "But I need you to recontact the original yoga group." "It looks likely that she'll seek affirmation from her peers." "OK, I'm just gonna ask." "Did you use drugs?" "Cause I gotta say that I'm a little terrified." "I'm not great with pain." "Nah, your body doesn't remember the pain, but..." "You don't want to forget the experience." "Hey, do you mind if I watch you chang him?" "Not at all." "What's wrong?" "But..." "You..." "I'll call the... 911, what is your emergency?" " Do you know where she went?" " Ok." " Mrs Gilbert?" "This is special agent Sim." " FBI." "Is Lydia there?" "Did she have any contact with Betty Scarwid?" "If you see her, do not approach her." "She's very dangerous, very disturbed." " Can you give me her cell phone number?" " Yes, we believe she was involved." "Could you say that again?" "Ok, thank you." "Straight to voice mail." "Where?" "Most afternoons?" "Thanks." "Lydia Osterland." "Her husband hasn't heard from her, she hasn't checked in." "Spends her days at Tonger Park." "It's alright." "Nobody's gonna hurt you." "Mummy's here." "I'm all ready this time." "Guys, check that building down there." " Oh, my God." " Lydia." "Oh my God, no." "Get... him... back." " How is she?" " Still in surgery." " What are her chances, odds to..." " It's too soon to know." "Doctors say it's a miracle that she lasted at all." "It's not the only miracle." "This came in a 911 two hours ago." "Got the all thing." "Mummy's here." "Mummy's here." "The baby's still alive." "You're the FBI?" "You called me." "I'm Lawrence Osterland, Lydia's husband." "I..." "I don't understand what's happening." " Mr Osterland..." " You're saying that..." "The baby they found in her is wasn't..." "Oh, God!" " Let's get some medical attention." " No, no, no." " You help my wife." " All right." "Come on sir, just sit down." "Help my wife." "Doctors are with her now." "Is that Lydia's blood?" "How could she survive this?" "How can I ever sur..." "Even if she wakes up..." "Our son." "Your son is alive." "Listen to me, Mr Osterland." "I need you to be strong, right now." "For both Lydia and for your son." "Every ressource we have is closing around the monster responsible." "My son, Zachary..." "We were gonna name him Zachary." "We'll get your son back." "I promise." "Special Agent Ryan, speak with you a sec?" "Thank you." "What are you doing?" "Even if that baby's still alive, which we can't know..." "You shouldn't make a promise we can't keep." "Then we keep that promise." "We go full-bore." "Media, Amber alert, full-court press, we get that kid back." "What?" "We leak nothing to the press." "We are in total black-out." "We're on the search from here." "This is insane, we know who we're looking for." "We've got a name, we've got pictures, we've got videos." "How can we not go to the media with us?" "We're coordinating with the LAPD, the sheriff's office and the highway patrol, we've got people in the air and on the ground," " we will find her." " Great." "A few hundred cops, there are 4 million people in Los Angeles." "Let's put the public eye on this." " It'd be a mistake." " Why?" "The last two times Betty Scarwid was challenged with the truth, she lashed out, attacked." "In her mind, she was just protecting her son." "No, that's baby is not her son." "No, but as long as she thinks it is, as long as she believes that Aidan is healthy and safe and alive..." "Chances are he'll stay that way." "Chances are." "The worst thing we could do right now would be to put the message out there that the baby in her arms is not Aidan." "We've ID'd the doll lady on Betty's shower video." "Kim Bossi." " We're bringing her in." " Bring her in quietly." "Yeah, do it quietly." "Wouldn't want to wake the suspect." "That's exactly it." "Paul, I don't like this any more than you do." "But allowing Betty to believe what she needs to believe is the safest play we have right now." "Maybe." "Maybe she really thinks that little Zachary Osterland, the baby she ripped out of his mother with her bare hands, is her precious Aidan." "Or maybe she's just desperate, and knows exactly what she did." " On some level..." " No, on all levels." "It's been hours since the attack." "Now, if she's really just walking around her own delusion... why didn't she take her little baby home?" "Where do you think she went?" "Goodness, such a fussy, but I need you to settle down." "I need you to be a good boy." "A good boy." "Yeah, I gave this doll to Betty." "What happened to it?" "Ms Bossi, are you close with Betty Scarwid?" "Why?" "Has she contacted you in the last 24 hours?" "24?" "No." "God, the last time I spoke to Betty..." "Well, it was after she lost the baby." "I tried, I mean, we all did." "She wouldn't talk to anyone." "It was so hard for her." "I even offered to break the news for her to my cousin, but... she flipped." "Your cousin?" "Who's your cousin?" "Scott." "Scott Bossi." " Is this Scott?" " Yeah, that's him." "What's going on?" "PFC Scott Bossi." "He's out of Pendleton." "According to his cousin, he would have been the father." "He was gonna marry Betty when he got back." "Plan's changed." "Where is he?" "Last 3 months, Baghdad." "His tour ended a week ago, and his cousin says he's due back sometimes this week." "Today." "Shipped out 3 days ago." "One stop over in Germany... then back Stateside." "That's it." "That's why it all escalated this week." "Betty needed to meet her returning soldier with their baby." "Her psychosis wouldn't let her show up without one." "Sounds like a real homey reunion." "Did he know about the miscarriage?" "Cousin says he does, she wrote to him herself." "So what are we looking at?" "LAX?" "Burbank?" "Amtrak?" "See if we can find out." "Carter, can you nail down PFC Bossi's itinerary?" " Get to him before she does." " Got it." "Your attention please, train 224, the Capitol Express, is now arriving at track 10." "Scott!" "God, it's good to see you." "You look so tanned, like you were just at the beach." "Oh, look who's here." "He's a little early, just like his mummy." "Couldn't wait to see Daddy." "Isn't he handsome?" "Betty, what's going on?" " What do you mean?" " Whose baby is this?" "Scott!" "Are you bleeding?" "No, I..." "Aren't you gonna say hello to your son?" "My what?" "Why are you looking at us like that?" "You're gonna upset Aidan." " Aidan?" "Betty, this can't be Aidan." " What?" "Honey, you lost Aidan." "What?" "Kim wrote me honey, she told me about the miscarriage." "Kim?" "I told her to..." "She was there..." "Your cousin's just jealous of us, she's lying and..." "Why would she say something like that?" "Oh, Betty, come on." "We need to.." "I don't know, need to call someone." "What are you talking about?" "Why are you being like this?" "We wanted to..." "We were gonna go to the new house." "We waited for you!" "Betty, where did you get this baby?" "Why do you keep saying that?" "This is our baby, Scott, remember?" "No, honey." "Our baby died." "No." "Betty." "Leave me alone." "Leave us alone." " Stop." "Stop, Betty." " This is not real." "It can't be..." "It is." "It is!" "Why?" "Why do you want him to be dead like that?" "Betty..." "My baby's dead..." "Paul, over there." "Excuse us!" " Excuse me." " Excuse us." "We called for an ambulance." "Guy comes back from a war and gets stabbed in L.A. Some country, uh?" " Scott Bossi?" " Scott." "Where is she?" "Where is Betty?" "Paradise." "They went to Paradise." "Yeah, Paradise." "He could have been delirious." "Paramedics are taking him to Cedars, we're gonna follow, in case we can talk to him after surgery." "You may not have to." "Mel thinks she's got something on the Paradise of it." "Yeah, it's me." "Marine's cousin, Kim Bossi..." "She talked about all the plans Scott and Betty had made, she mentioned a housing development in Valencia." "On Paradise Hills." " That's gotta be it." " Get on the road." "We'll nail down the location, have Carter send it to your GPS." "All right, listen, we're on our way." "Call LAPD, have them send Valencia units there now." "On it." "Hey Danny, any word on Lydia Osterland?" "We don't know anything yet." "Right." "All right, we'll see you out there." "Right behind you." "Where the baby?" "I can't see him." "Paul, just..." "let me." "Baby?" "She says her baby is dead." " She killed him." " I don't think so." ""Aidan's dead" doesn't mean Zachary Osterland is." "But to her, it was the same thing." "It is." "But I don't think she would knowingly harm him." "I think Scott Bossi forced her to face the fact." "And she transferred that fact to the baby she was holding." "So, she just thought he was dead." "Whatever." "Where'd she put it?" "She says he's at rest." "I think she buried him." "Where?" "She won't say, she doesn't want him disturbed." "She's gonna tell us where he is." "Paul, in case she doesn't..." "I'm gonna get some hounds out here and the team." "Look, let me just..." "Let me try to talk to her." " We don't have time for this!" " I know." "I swear to you, Rebecca, if she doesn't give it up to Mel in 15 seconds..." "You should talk to her." "You should talk to her now." "You can tell her what she needs to hear..." "I have no idea what this lunatic needs to hear!" "Yes Paul, you do." "It's everything you haven't said to Karen." "What're you talking about?" "How would you know about what I have or haven't said to Karen?" "You spoke to my wife." " I was worried about you." " Oh, that's crap!" "You knew that Karen micarried." "You thought it would give you insight into this case." "Web put you up to this?" "You could have said no." "But you can't." "Not to this, not now." "I think that baby is still alive, but it won't be for much longer." "You can get her to tell us where he is." "Just like she made Zachary Osterland into Aidan." "You need to make her Karen." "Talk to her, Paul." "Talk to your wife." "It's a gift." "A thing you planned for." "And it gave you reason." "When you talked about him... you talked to him... used his name..." "He was real." "Not a thing." "He was your son." "Your boy, your good... boy." "And you loved him." "Even though you never saw his face, you never heard his voice, everything that you hoped for, everything that you wished for... it was for him." "You made a place for him, just... for him." "But he never made it into this world." "That's not your fault." "It was an accident, Betty." "Scott?" "He needed to say goodbye to him." "But now, so do I." "Tell me." "Tell me where he is." "Please." "I can show you." "Thank God." "He's perfect." "Lydia." "Honey, look." "Is it true?" "It's true." "Thank you." "Yes?" "When we got this case... did you have the option to not take it?" " I always have that option." " Did you volonteer us?" "What you're trying very hard not to ask... is whether I select cases purposefully to cause my agents the most pain." "I don't." "I take the cases we can solve." "So solving the case always comes first," "I mean, it's always the highest priority." "Are you asking me to absolve you?" "What?" "You put the case first." "You're feeling guilty." "You want me to tell you it's ok." "It's ok with me." "# May this night keep you here 'til tomorrow" "# 'Til tomorrow..."
