"And he's definitely not my friend." "I thought you said you never spoke to your half-sister." "Yeah, I lied." "I think I just found something." "This is an E-mail sent to you."

"If I were to look at your life's work, would I know who you really are?" "A serial killer's crimes are the expression of their truest self." "They are their life's work." "Maybe yours is to stop them." "Today, we're going to be looking at serial killers where they really live... not in prison, not in the movies, but in the lives of their victims as they died." " Real killers?" " Real killers, real victims." "Some you'll recognize, some you won't." "The relationship between a serial killer and their victim is the most important relationship in an investigation." "These are the victim's crime-scene files from infamous serial-killer cases." "Each one of the killers has gotten an extra victim." "They almost fit the profile, but not quite." "You're going to work in teams to determine, using only the profiles and the M.O.s, no outside resources, who they didn't kill." "So... pick your killers, pick your teams, and get to work." "Bring your "A" game." "I don't impress easy." " I'll go get the file." " Simon." "Okay." "MAN:" "Nimah, join us." "WOMAN:" "Shelby, get over here." "Hey, do you guys mind if I join you?"

"GRIFFIN:" "I'll start by introducing myself." "My name is Griffin Wells." "I run an intelligence-gathering service that reports directly to the President." "I know who you are." "We studied your work at Quantico." "I'm flattered." "What did you learn?" "Before you were in charge of HIG, you ran the Special Activities Division at the C.I.A." "We all know how painless and safe interrogations were under those auspices." "One-time offer." "Come clean now, and I may be able to make sure you don't get the death penalty." "Okay, then." "Then I'd like to apologize in advance." "Our conversation may end up being quite... unpleasant." "Will you tell him my wife, Senator Haas, sits on the committee that oversees their operating budget?" "Well, then I suggest you find a way to wake up the U.S. Attorney before another bomb goes off in this city." "[indistinct conversations]" "Hey, take a break." "What are you doing here?" "Alex retained me as her counsel." "Consider me yours, too." "Anything you say right now falls under attorney/client privilege." "No, he's lying." "He has Caleb with him." "All right, relax, Amanda Knox." "I'm joining team Alex for a bit." "Look, I may have stumbled onto a conspiracy, and I-I just want to see where it leads." "One of your agents reported someone else having Alex's badge the night before the bombing, and it went ignored." "That agent was found dead today... staged to look like she died in the bombing." "What's more, her phone was missing." "Goodwin might have been killed because she could I.D. the terrorist." "When the one person presenting conflicting evidence shows up dead, without that evidence," "I'd be a fool not too look at it at more angles." "Yeah, well, that's all well and good, but why are you down here with us and not with Alex?" "She isn't here." "She was taken by HIG." "You could have led with that." "You've been on the inside here." "While they were looking for Alex, what weren't they looking for?" "Look, they never established a timeline for Alex leading up to the bomb, all right?" "With the video of her entering Grand Central with what they believe to be parts of the bomb, and on top of the physical evidence, that's all they needed." "They had me and DITU looking for Alex at Grand Central, nothing before that." "So we start there." " _ - ♪♪ [indistinct conversations]" "All the victims are single mothers with a child under 1."

"Hey, what about number four right there?" "Duncroft never assaulted any of the other victims." "Yeah." "No, I-I think it's nine." "But victim four is outside his usual pattern by at least two points." "And it's not just the assault, but the fact that the baby is almost 2 and not under 1." "The Widowmaker always strangled his victims," " but our number five was stabbed." " [cellphone vibrating]" "BRANDON:" "It's too obvious to be a fake." "Langdon said we were on the right track following the victim's presentations." "I-I can't stop looking at nine." "The... the food spatter behind the kid's high chair doesn't make sense." "Maybe he moved the baby or maybe the kid likes throwing food behind him." "No, but he never moved a kid before." "LANGDON:" "Does anyone else agree with Trainee Asher?" "We haven't reached consensus yet." "LANGDON:" "You better hurry up." "We're running out of time." "Convince them that you're right or jump on board with their theory." "I already know the answer." "Are you okay?" "The Jeffers case is pretty brutal." "I mean, I'm..." "I'm sure you've seen stuff like this as a cop." "Yes, I have." "So I'm fine." "Time." "Which team had Alan Jeffers, A.K.A. The Widowmaker?" "Um, we picked victim number eight." "He was asphyxiated but not strangled, so we thought maybe a plastic bag over his head." "Good work." "That was Bob Berdella's victim, not Jeffers." "That's correct." "And now for my very own Welfare Mom Killer." "ALEX:" "Well, we're going with number four." "There are many factors, but it's the age of the witness that really cinched it." "Hmm." "Really good work." "You all passed." "But now for the real test... how not to take it home with you." "Everything you see in this job you cannot unsee." "But you can find a way to compartmentalize it, put it in a box in your mind, choose when to open that box." "And then sometimes you just need to take the edge off." "So The Old Settler... tonight." "First round's on me." "Good work." "Thank you." "Good job today." "There was more than one fake in each group, right?" "I-I mean, there's always a twist to these exercises, and you put an extra body in our pile, didn't you?" "[chuckles] No." "No, just the one." "Yeah, but, I mean, if..." "if you look at this..." "You know, your work impressed me today, Simon." "I was watching you." "You considered all of the evidence, you didn't jump to any conclusions." "Good profiling like that can't be taught." "It can only be felt." "But I'll give you a tip every good profiler will tell you... the longer you stare at something, the more out of focus it becomes." "Finding the truth can be simple." "It's accepting the simplicity that's hard." " [beep] - _ [ringing]" " Oh." " [beep]" "Oh, no." "Go ahead." "Make your call." " I'll wait." " No, it's not important." "And here I thought we were trying to trust each other again." "What is that supposed to mean?" "Well, you didn't like it when I lied to you, but now it's okay for you to lie to me?" "I know you went to go see him." "What I don't know is why you don't want to tell me about it." "You and me working the DITU system... just like the old days, huh?" "Okay, no time to reminisce." "Every second counts." "You don't know these HIG guys." "They could break the rock." "I'm grabbing CCTV footage, security cams," "ATM cams, Snapchats, anything in the vicinity of Alex's apartment the morning of the bombing." " [beep]" " Whoa." "There she is." "From the security camera across the street she told Simon about." "Okay, where does she go next?" "Where did she go?" "She's gone." "No camera has her on the block after that." "She just vanished into thin air?" "How is that possible?" "It's a blind spot." "There's plenty of them in the city, but they're not very big... 5 to 10 feet." "Somebody must have been waiting in one to take her." "If the terrorist really is in the FBI, they'd know about them." "Okay, we need help." "We need someone who can leave this building without being noticed." "I guess a lot happened after I got thrown out." "CALEB:" "We're holding three of Alex's conspirators, and you're both still free." "How did that happen?" "What do you want, little man?" "Can we trust you?" "Can we trust you?" "We are trying to save Alex's life." "Are you with us or not?" "What do you need?" "We need one of you to find out what's in this blind spot and the other to make it look like you're both still here as to not raise suspicion." "You guys are the only ones who could do it." "Listen to me." "There's a second bomb out there, and you need to be focused on finding that." "Let the Bureau focus on your second bomb." "It's not my bomb, and neither was the first."

"But I'd like to learn." "Especially your threshold for suffering." "The longer you hold out, the harder it's going to be for those you care about." "Think about your mother." "What if her secrets came to light, huh?" "And your friends." "Their careers are already over." "They're gonna get life for treason." "So you're right..."

"O-Or the stove was on when she was killed and it stayed on." "Okay, just hear me out." "This is... this is my theory." "All right, the room was so warm that the lividity of the body would have been quicker, meaning that there would be no drag marks if the body was moved posthumously." "Moved where?" "In front of the kid." "Look." "Look, the high chair was moved, too." "That's why there was food on the floor." "But he had never moved a victim after he killed them." "Yeah, but that's because he didn't do it." "Somebody wanted it to look like he did." "It was a copycat." "Well, I was the first one on the scene." "I guarantee you it's the way you see it in this picture." " The stove was off." " Well, then, somebody was there before you that you just didn't know about." "Nobody had worked that case more than I did." "He had been taunting me for years, and we caught him." "I caught him." "Yeah, well, then, maybe you did it. [scoffs]" "♪♪" "I read your book." "So I know that he called you that night." "He told you he was gonna kill again." "Somebody spotted him out by the projects, so you went over there, and that's when you found Ronnie Moore dead." "Except you realized that it wasn't the Welfare Mom Killer." "Maybe I thought it was close enough." "He hadn't done it." "But the heat... that gave you a chance to..." "Drag the body, turn around the high chair." "All of a sudden, a crime of passion became the way I caught my killer." "Now, even if somebody did do that, that doesn't account for the DNA of the killer being the same as the DNA around her neck." "You're a medical examiner." "You could have placed the DNA on her." "You could have done anything." "I put away a mass murderer." " You falsified evidence." " You don't know that."
