"What a great day." "Hey." "Hey." "How'd you sleep?" "I slept fantastic." "You?" "I slept great." "You want front page or Business?" "Sports." "Sorry." "How did the Knicks do last night?" "Got their asses kicked again." "I thought they had a shot this year." "Yeah, me too." "They play Milwaukee next Wednesday night." "Yeah?" "Divided loyalties." "I got a line on a couple of tickets." "You do?" "I mean, they're no big deal." "Just floor seats, right next to Spike Lee." "Wednesday night?" "School night." "Probably not such a good idea." "What, too public for you?" "Well, there are TV cameras, there's a JumboTron." "Someone is bound to see us." "Sam, this is ridiculous." "Martin, I don't think you understand." "No, what are you so afraid of?" "I am a woman who has slept with two men on the same team." "If people in the office find that out We're just sleeping together?" "Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about." "I know exactly what you're talking about." "I'm going for a run." "Martin." "I'm just not sure, that's all." "Seriously, it'll be fun." "I don't know." "I don't really like that." "Come on." "We'll have great time." "Trust me." "What are you doing?" "Stop him." "Hey, he's taking my son!" "He's taking my son!" "That's my son." "Stop him!" "Stop him!" "Hey, hey, hey!" "Yeah, it's getting closer, but the eyes are still too far apart." "Yeah, it's looking better." "Hi, Martin." "How you doing?" "I've been better." "Wanna get me up to speed?" "Yeah." "The guy was talking to the boy there and I ran by." "I should have felt it." "What were they talking about?" "He was trying to convince the boy to go somewhere." "The boy seem scared?" "No, he seemed okay." "I assumed they were father and son." "Well, it's a fair assumption." "Morning drop off at a school." "Yeah." "You get a look at the car?" "Yeah, it was a green Nissan Pathfinder, recent model." "I couldn't catch the plates." "Well, having you here gives us a bit of a leg up." "Yeah, I hope so." "What were you doing down here?" "What do you mean?" "Don't you live uptown?" "Yeah, I was I was down here having coffee with a friend and then I was gonna run home." "Okay." "I want you to run a check of all the registered sex offenders in the area." "Take a copy of that sketch to the TV stations." "You got it." "Here you go, Mrs. Gerard." "Who would do this?" "Who would do this?" "That's what I'm trying to figure out." "Mrs. Gerard, look at me." "I don't understand." "Mrs. Gerard, I need you to focus, okay?" "I need you to tell me everything that you remember." "Can you do that?" "It was just like every other morning." "I dropped Michael a block that way." "He's gotten to that age where he's embarrassed to be seen with me." "Okay, then what happened?" "And then I parked." "And I went in to sign a permission slip." "And I came back out and that man was dragging him into the car." "Did you recognize him?" "No." "Are you sure?" "Yes." "Think about it." "He didn't seem familiar in any way?" "No." "Why would he?" "It appears that your son knew the man." "That's impossible." "Does Mike have any problems with his father?" "Custody issues?" "Anything like that?" "No." "Just the opposite." "I can barely get his father to spend an afternoon with him." "I'm sure that's a problem for Mike." "He's 12 years old." "Of course it is." "Agent Taylor?" "Okay." "Here's a sketch of the man that took Mike." "Do you recognize him?" "I've never seen him before." "Wait a second, this is who y'all looking for?" "Are you sure?" "Why, do you know him?" "This is Mike's uncle." "His uncle?" "He's not?" "No, what makes you think he is?" "He used to walk Mike to the library." "Which library?" "Bedford Branch, down the block." "Mike's mom picks him up late, so Mike goes there to wait." "One day, I saw them walking together, so I went over to check it out." "All right, keep it moving." "No running, no running." "Hey, Mike, how you doing?" "Good." "You must be Mr. Gerard." "Your son's an outstanding young man." "Well, you're absolutely right." "He's a fine boy." "But I'm actually his uncle." "Oh, is that right?" "I just moved to New York." "Well, good." "I'm sure Mike will enjoy having you around." "Hope so." "Mike was a lonely sort of boy." "Not a lot of friends." "Never saw his dad around." "I was just glad to see somebody pay him some attention." "Did he ever tell you the man's name?" "No." "I'm sorry." "Thank you." "Martin." "Hey." "From a traffic camera six blocks from where he grabbed the boy." "No plate." "Which is why you didn't catch it." "Must have taken them off." "Or they haven't issued the tags yet." "I'm running down all Pathfinders purchased in the last six months." "Fantastic." "It's a start, right?" "Yeah." "Martin." "I need you to come with me." "Where are we headed?" "The Gerard house." "Both the parents are there." "Am I missing something?" "This is the guy?" "Paul You were there?" "How could you let this happen?" "I understand how you feel" "Now you're here to investigate?" "Mike wouldn't be gone if you'd done your job." "If it wasn't for Agent Fitzgerald, we wouldn't have a sketch of the subject." "Now sit down and calm down." "I'm sorry." "I just I can't believe this is happening." "I'd like to take a look at Mike's room, if I could." "It's through there." "All right." "I understand how difficult this is for you." "According to the crossing guard this man was seen with Mike as far back as November." "November?" "That's three months ago." "So he's had contact with Mike more than once?" "What does that mean?" "Means he's been nurturing a relationship with your son." "Have you noticed any behavioral problems with him?" "I think Paul moving out was hard on him." "And when was that?" "Seven months ago." "Lately?" "How's his behavior been?" "He seemed happier." "I thought he was adjusting to the separation." "What's your take on it, Mr. Gerard?" "I haven't seen him much lately." "I'm a pilot for Rapp Air Freight." "I wind up being gone a lot." "So in the times that you have seen him, have you noticed any change?" "It's not like he confides in me." "The truth is, I have a hard time connecting with him, you know?" "He's kind of in his own world." "Well, clearly, this other man is a big part of his world and has been for quite some time." "Now, have there been any unusual letters, e mails, gifts?" "Anything out of the ordinary?" "Oh, my God." "Do you remember?" "It was his birthday." "It's okay, Mom." "No, it's not okay." "It really is not." "Hey." "Sorry I'm late, gang." "Paul, you are over an hour late." "I know." "Why are you wearing your pilot suit?" "Mears got sick." "I need to fly his load." "You're supposed to take Mike out for his birthday tomorrow." "We're gonna have to reschedule." "I'm really sorry, buddy." "Can I open my presents now?" "Sure." "There you go." "It's a video game." "Who gave you that?" "Just a friend from school." "I didn't think anything of it." "Do you remember what the name of the game was?" "How are we doing on the game?" "Nine hundred thousand Tek Zero 3's were sold in the United States." "He could have bought it anywhere." "Not anymore." "Tek Zero launches a new model every couple months, they're to Tek Zero 19." "Where do you get a Tek Zero 3?" "The main place to get them is online." "We contacted the U.S. Attorney's office?" "They authorized a warrant so we could get the names." "That might not be necessary." "Why's that?" "I just crosschecked the Tek Zero 3 bidders against new Pathfinder owners." "Someone with the screen name "BStone834" bought a Tek Zero 3 in December and I have a recent truck buyer named Brian Stone." "Well, let's pull it up on the DMV, see what we get." "That's him." "That's the guy." "You're sure?" "I'm absolutely sure." "Okay, he's Brian Arthur Stone." "Date of birth, 101361." "Yeah, that fits with his member profile, which lists his occupation as "teacher."" "No one knew him at Mike's school." "What's his address?" "1731 Patterson Street in Brooklyn." "Let's confirm that." "No criminal record." "Doesn't make me feel better." "Applied for his license last year." "Looks like he came here from Oregon." "Stone's a Triborough Gas customer." "That address definitely checks out." "I wanna know who this guy is, what he did in Oregon." "Martin." "You, me, Patterson." "Let's go." "FBI." "Clear." "Clear." "I got a kid's sweatshirt." "Bag it as evidence." "He's got a framed photo of Mike Gerard." "Looks like he wasn't the only one." "Yes, it's definitely his." "Can I take it out of the bag?" "I'd just like to touch it." "No, I'm sorry, Mrs. Gerard." "We're still processing it as evidence." "Please." "Okay." "I'm sorry." "We also found Stone's library card." "Bedford Branch." "Now, the staff members there say they've seen Mike there with him." "We think that's where they met." "I can't believe Mike was at his house." "What?" "What were they doing there?" "We're not exactly sure." "Well, do you have any leads?" "Do you know anything at all?" "We're doing everything possible to get your son back safe and sound." "Now, I need you to look at this photo for me." "Okay?" "Do you recognize that boy?" "Is he a friend of Mike's?" "What does he have to do with this?" "Is this another boy he hurt?" "We're not sure." "Do you recognize him?" "No." "Thank you for taking the time to come in today." "I'll have a car take you home." "We're not going anywhere." "I mean, I think somebody should be here in case any news comes in." "Okay, Mr. Gerard, I'll find you a place in the waiting room." "No, I'm afraid I don't know him." "He doesn't attend Harper Prep." "You sure about that?" "Well, we're a very elite boys' school." "I know every student by name." "Sir, what could you tell us about Brian Stone?" "He no longer teaches for us." "He left nine months ago." "Did he quit, or was he fired?" "Sorry, personnel matters are strictly confidential." "Mr. Stone abducted a young boy this morning." "So we need to know why he left and if there were any allegations made against him." "Well, nothing specifically." "But I grew very uneasy about his teaching style." "Mr. Haynes, pull up a chair." "I heard rumors about this." "I just had to see for myself." "What do you think you're doing?" "We're screening To Kill a Mockingbird." "We covered the book, I wanted to show them the movie." "At your home?" "Sometimes they just need a break from all the rules." "They enjoy coming here." "I enjoy having them." "You and I have discussed this in the past." "I know." "I just You just nothing." "I have had enough." "You're fired." "Boys, step out here." "What?" "Step out in the hall." "Wait for me there." "Come on." "Now." "Move it, move it." "Here we go." "No, no." "But you You can't." "I think I can." "No, you can't take my boys from me!" "They are not your boys." "Now, I suggest you take your hands off me." "Your desk will be cleared and the contents delivered to you." "Do not step foot in Harper Prep ever again." "Do you hear me?" "I should never have hired him." "It was just a colossal mistake, obviously." "We understand that before this he taught literature at Northern Oregon University." "Which was why we were so thrilled to get him." "I mean, on paper, he was a perfect candidate with a reputation for academic rigor." "Needless to say, that is not the man who showed up at Harper." "All right, as near as we can figure Stone lived off his savings after he was fired and never got another job." "So his students were taken away." "He's unemployed, he's lonely." "He's got time to hang at the library." "Where he set his sights on Mike." "He spends months building up a relationship, some trust." "Right, so why abduct him all of a sudden?" "I don't know, maybe the kid rejected him." "Maybe something else set him off." "How we doing with the records search?" "We got an ex wife." "Debra Stone." "She filed for divorce about 18 months ago." "She left Oregon and relocated to Boston." "And they have a son, Alan." "How old is the son?" "Well, according to birth records, he'd be 14." "He's not listed as a dependant on his father's tax returns." "I'm assuming the mother took custody." "And she moved him clear across the country." "Where is she now?" "She's on a flight headed to Jamaica." "She has a layover at Kennedy." "Sam's trying to get her off the plane." "What about the boy?" "Where's he?" "Well, hopefully she can tell us." "Yeah." "Really?" "Where?" "Okay, thanks." "Stone just surfaced at a gas station outside of Westchester." "When?" "Fifteen minutes ago." "When are you gonna leave?" "You're bad for business." "Special Agent Fitzgerald." "Special Agent Malone." "I've told four policemen everything." "We need to hear it from you, all right?" "I'm afraid I've fouled up things up." "And how have you fouled things up?" "When they first came in, I took them to be father and son." "Are you sure you're up for this?" "Are you kidding?" "I can't wait." "Do you need to use the restroom?" "Do you want something?" "You didn't eat much." "I'm not allowed to eat stuff like this." "But do you want it?" "Well, I guess maybe some of these candy bars would kind of be good." "Yeah." "Whatever you feel like." "This is This is all about you, Mike." "Cool." "New York state." "That everything?" "Yeah." "All right." "That'll be 32.05 for the gasoline." "It'll be 40 dollars and 58 cents, sir." "The child was kidnapped from the Manhattan school this morning." "The boy has been identified as Mike Gerard." "He's about 5 feet tall, with brown hair and brown eyes." "Authorities have also released this photo of" "Get down!" "What are you doing?" "What are you doing?" "It's all right." "Get down on the floor!" "Then he pulled the boy out and they drove away." "They threw something in the trash can?" "Right there." "Are you sure that's a New York state map that they bought?" "Yes." "And he took my cell phone." "He took your cell phone?" "It was sitting on the counter." "He grabbed it as he left." "What's the number?" "Okay, Martin, bear with me for one second." "The cell phone's off, but it looks like he did make one call." "Who'd he call?" "Directory Assistance." "Must've been after he left the gas station." "Did they connect him to the number?" "No, we're gonna have to comb through all calls that went through the system." "Good luck." "The call was routed through a tower in Putnam County, so he must have been headed north." "Let's see if he has contacts in that area." "Danny and Viv are on it." "Let's also alert Lake George Village, amusement parks, ski resorts." "Why is that?" "Well, before things went bad here Mike seemed to be looking forward to wherever they were going." "All right." "Martin." "Hold on." "They had breakfast at a diner in Melrose about two hours ago." "Yeah." "Yeah, I remember these guys." "So, what's this all about?" "This man abducted the boy." "No way." "Yeah way." "Can you tell us everything that you can remember about what happened?" "All right." "They sat right over there." "And at first, the kid hardly even said a word and the guy was trying to cheer him up, you know?" "Everything was fine, but then it got a little weird." "Who's this?" "Give me that back." "Who is he?" "It's no one." "It doesn't matter." "Just give it back." "Why?" "Just give What's the big deal?" "Give it back to me." "It's not safe!" "What's going on?" "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to hurt you." "I don't wanna do this anymore." "I wanna go home." "God, please." "He's my son, okay?" "You never told me you had a son." "So now you know." "Well, where is he?" "He's..." "He's with his mother." "Do you ever see him?" "No, I don't." "Because she won't let you?" "Something like that." "His name's Alan, right?" "How'd you know that?" "You've called me Alan a few times by mistake." "So I'm like his replacement or something?" "Did he answer the kid's question?" "Oh, I don't know." "An order was up, and I had to go grab it." "But I did hear them talking, and by the time they left things were okay again." "This was a stopover." "You just can't pull off me that plane." "You don't have that right." "Lookit, I've got a ticket." "Guys, thank you." "What?" "I'm Special Agent Fitzgerald." "What is going on?" "I'm gonna miss my flight to Negril." "I need you to calm down." "We pulled you off that plane because your ex husband abducted a boy." "What?" "This boy." "Brian would never do that." "When was the last time you spoke?" "A year ago." "Just after our divorce." "He reminds me of Alan." "Your son?" "Ms. Stone, I'm sorry to have to ask you this." "Was your husband abusing Alan?" "Is that why you left him?" "No." "God, no." "Alan's dead." "When?" "Two years ago, he passed away." "Two years ago today." "That's why I'm going to Jamaica." "I have to get away." "I have to be away." "Can you tell me what happened?" "My father, he has this lake house and we were there on a winter getaway." "There you go, kiddo." "What about tomorrow?" "I think I made myself very clear, Alan." "No skating on the lake." "All the other kids get to go." "I don't care about other kids, Alan." "It's not safe." "How about if you come with me?" "Just to make sure it is safe." "Alan, the answer is no." "You never let me do anything." "You won't even let me have video games." "Go to your room." "I was gonna go there anyway." "Hey, hey, hey." "Aren't you forgetting something?" "I love you, and so does your dad." "Yeah, right." "He's got to learn, Debra." "Life isn't always about getting whatever you want." "And two hours later, the phone rang." "Oh, my God, no!" "Alan!" "Alan!" "No!" "Apparently Alan had snuck out to skate on the lake." "He went up too far, and the ice was thin." "After Alan everything fell apart." "Brian's life, our marriage." "You know, he blamed himself." "He said if he hadn't been so strict with Alan..." "I need you to help me understand something." "We checked the Oregon records." "We never saw anything about your son's death." "He didn't die in Oregon." "Well, then where's the lake house?" "It's here, upstate." "It all makes sense." "Alan wanted his dad to take him skating." "He refused, and that night Alan goes through the ice." "So you think he's taking Mike out to the lake to change the outcome?" "Right, and that'd explain why he grabbed him today, the anniversary." "Okay, I'm gonna chopper out to the lake." "I can be there in 20 minutes." "Martin, it's gonna take you 40, at least." "Stay at the airport, see what you can get out of the ex wife." "All right." "So, what do you think he's gonna do?" "No idea." "I got a guy who's unstable, he's got a gun and nothing to lose." "Okay." "Go." "They're not there yet?" "It looks like we got here first." "Nothing but dust and cobwebs." "Anything else out of the ex wife?" "No, no, I gave you everything." "I can't figure why they haven't shown." "He's gonna show up eventually." "All right." "Good luck." "Are you sure you're up for this?" "Are you kidding?" "I can't wait." "Hey, Martin." "Any news from the lake house?" "They're not there yet, and I'm not sure that's where they're headed." "What do you mean?" "Think about it." "This kid was forced into a car." "He clearly didn't wanna go, right?" "But by the time they got to the gas station, Mike was onboard." "Then Stone buys a map." "Guy knows where his lake house is." "A map?" "The plan was to go to the lake house." "The plan changed." "Maybe the argument had something to do with it." "Mike confronted Stone about his son." "That would explain the call to 411." "Yeah, where are we on that?" "The problem is that there was 2058 calls into Directory Assistance during that time period." "I'm crosschecking, but so far I got nothing." "I'm like his replacement or something?" "That's how I've been treating you, isn't it?" "There's someplace that I wanted to take you." "Mike, we'll do what you wanna do." "We'll We'll go where you wanna go." "Anywhere?" "Anywhere." "I'll be right back." "Okay." "Mr. Gerard?" "I wanted to say I know you did everything you could this morning." "I'm the one who wasn't there for Mike." "We're all second guessing ourselves here." "I need to ask you something." "If Mike could go anywhere, where would that be?" "He used to like the zoo." "The zoo." "Okay." "Now, when I was in his room, I noticed model airplanes." "There were globes, maps." "He always wanted to go the museum." "I was supposed to take him there on his birthday." "What museum?" "Gerard promised to take his son to the museum but he dropped the ball." "That's where Stone's taking him, not the lake." "Keep talking." "Those calls to Directory Assistance" "One was for the Model Airplane Museum in Utica." "That cannot be a coincidence." "Have you coordinated with the local P. D?" "They've set up checkpoints into the city." "Okay, state troopers just spotted the Pathfinder heading west on US 20." "You hear that?" "You guys are closer than us." "Just tell me what you need." "All right, I'll keep you posted." "I repeat, I cannot hear you." "Agent Fitzgerald, Lieutenant Kyle Baker, County Police." "This is Agent Taylor." "What's the situation?" "Stone's in the vehicle with the kid." "He's got a pistol." "He took cover in the back seat." "You been able to communicate?" "Been trying, he hasn't responded." "All right." "Thanks, Viv." "What's the story with the cell phone?" "Nothing." "It's still off." "You mind if I borrow this?" "Have at it." "Brian, this is Agent Fitzgerald." "I'm with the FBI." "I'd like to come out and talk with you." "I'm gonna take my jacket off so you can see that I'm unarmed." "Martin, let's just monitor the situation." "This guy is not gonna hurt anyone." "I'm unarmed." "Here, take a look." "I just wanna talk." "Get in." "What?" "Get in." "What the hell's he doing?" "I don't know." "Can you put that thing away?" "I might need it." "It's not gonna come to that." "You doing all right, Mike?" "Yeah." "Good." "You mind if he sits up here with me?" "Yes, I mind." "You're the man who chased us." "Yeah." "There's no end to my bad luck." "I know about that, Brian." "About your son." "Look, what you've been through people are gonna understand, okay?" "No one's been hurt." "We can all walk out of here together." "All right, then what do you want?" "I want my son back." "I know you do." "But Mike's parents want him back too." "You care about Mike." "Am I wrong about that?" "Of course I care." "Then let's get him out of this car right now." "You and I can sort this out, but he doesn't need to be here." "It's not safe." "He has a point, Mike." "I think it's best if you go." "All right." "All right, great." "Let me just radio in and let them know he's coming, okay?" "I'm just I'm just gonna radio in." "Danny." "Yeah?" "The boy's getting out." "He's gonna head your way." "Okay." "The kid's gonna come out." "Okay." "I never got you to the museum." "That's okay." "I really wanted to do that one thing for you." "You tried." "It's more than anyone else did." "Hey, you have a father." "He may not be able to show it, but he loves you." "Whatever happens here, remember that." "What do you mean, "whatever happens"?" "Mike, I need you to get out of the car and head to the roadblock." "I'm not sure I wanna do that." "What's taking so long?" "Mike, I need you to leave now." "What do you mean?" "Just do as the man says." "I'm not leaving." "Yes, you are." "Get out." "Mike, step out of the car now." "What about the museum?" "Forget the museum." "Just get out." "Why are you talking to me like that?" "I thought you were my friend." "I'm not your friend." "I've just been using you." "You mean nothing to me!" "I don't believe you." "Get the hell out of the car!" "What are you gonna do?" "He's gonna surrender." "That's a lie." "Show him it's not a lie." "Give me the gun." "I can't do that." "Yes, you can." "Give me the gun." "No." "Give it to him." "Give me the gun." "Just give him the gun." "I can't." "Why not?" "Just let me be with my son." "Get a medic in here!" "Let's go, Mike." "Let's go." "You shot him." "He's gonna be okay." "No!" "No!" "No!" "Come on." "Come on." "Brian!" "Brian!" "It's gonna be all right." "He'll be all right." "It's gonna be okay." "You're safe, champ." "Hey, have you got a minute?" "Sure." "What's up?" "Not much." "I just wanted to thank you for letting me run with this today." "It was a tricky move, getting in that car." "Yeah, yeah, it was not exactly by the book but I have seen it done before." "Anyway, I'll have the report on your desk tomorrow." "Martin." "Yeah?" "I know." "About you and..." "Okay." "Good luck with it." "Good night." "Night." "Adapted by:" "SDI Media Group" "[ENGLISH]"
