"Confessional's over there" "Not enough time in the day" "I'll pass" "Who's missing?" "Okay" "Father Henry Stevens, 55." "Pastor here at St. Germaine's for the past twelve years" "Hasn't been seen since dinner two nights ago" "Any sign of foul play?" "The parish car is missing along with the keys" "Well, we know he could've taken the car for a ride to enjoy the fall colors" "Well, the parish weren't terribly worried until they found this" "He never goes anywhere without it" "It's registered with the United Network of Organ Sharing" "What's wrong with him?" "Cirrhosis of the liver, end-stage." "The hospital paged him because they've got a liver for him, and when he didn't call back, they called his backup number at the rectory." "Talk about bad timing" "If we don't find this guy in a hurry, he may never get another chance" "Father Stevens was diagnosed sixteen months ago." "The Bishop sort of forced him to take me on" "Wouldn't want the church to lose momentum" "Well, he didn't put it quite like that." "I've only known Henry sick, but as far as I can tell, until recently, it didn't affect his energy, or his attitude." "Until recently?" "Liver disease is hard." "He's not himself, he's tired." "He has a lot of ideas." "I think, maybe, he feels he's running out of time." "Well, since you were working so closely with him, you would know if he was in trouble or if he felt threatened." "Threatened?" "By what?" "Parishioner an angry parent" "no" "Father Walker, in my experience, when an adult male goes missing, he's usually done something to cause it." "Nobody wants Father Stevens back here more than me, but I don't have anything else to tell you so, if I may ..." "I have a communion class to teach" "Of course" "If you, uh... think of anything... that might help, give me a call" "God be with you" "Sure" "According to the church secretary, he's a paragon of virtue and loves cats" "According to his street clothes, he takes his vow of poverty very seriously." "Take a look at this." "We're going to have to interview every one of these boys." "Because he's a priest?" "Because he's a missing priest." "He's a man of god, and he's dying, okay, so show compassion" "You know," "I want to believe in him, but you have got to admit, they have been testing our faith a lot these days." "I played on a team." "The St. Benedict's Dragons." "I find it very hard to imagine you in a white communion gown." "I didn't actually go to church." "I got busted shoplifting a fifth of rum from a liquor store" "The judge gave me two choices:" "St. Benedict's after-school program or juvie" "I figured a couple hours of basketball a day, how bad could it be?" "And how bad was it?" "Father Orlando kicked my ass." "Probably saved my life" "Do you know if he has his prescriptions with him?" "At this stage of his disease, it is vital he take his medications on time" "Right, I'll have the agents at the rectory look for them." "So, Dr. Verco, is there anything that you can tell me about Father Stevens, his disease, how he contracted it?" "It might help us find him" "I'm bound by doctor-patient confidentiality." "Now, honestly, I don't think any information I have would help." "Well, you never know." "For instance, if ... he's an alcoholic, we could focus on the local bars." "Alcohol is only one cause of cirrhosis of the liver, Agent Fitzgerald." "So, he wasn't an alcoholic?" "So, when was the last time you saw him?" "He had an appointment." "Five days ago." "And the scarring spread to the area around the right hepatic vein." "The treatment's not working?" "I had high hopes, Henry, but no." "You're not responding." "I called the organ network and upgraded your needed category, so ..." "Well, what about... somatostatin?" "Now, it worked well when we ... when we started that Henry ..." "Why don't we...?" "If we go back to it now ... all right, that research program at Columbia." "That cell replication protocol was promising." "You said that." "You said that ..." "I'm afraid you're too sick now to get into a research study." "So why did we wait until now?" "Henry," "I know this is hard." "All right." "Isn't there anything we can do?" "Do what you do, Henry pray." "You need a new liver." "You don't have any other options." "Obviously, I'm a man of science, but when the perfect match came up for Henry three days later..." "Maybe he, um, maybe he just got tired." "Suicide?" "Well, it wouldn't be the first time that a terminally ill patient took the easy way out." "no" "Henry wouldn't." "Couldn't." "Henry just wouldn't want God to think he didn't trust him." "Yeah, Martin, there are a bunch of prescriptions." "All filled within the last ten days." "Yeah, they're full." "Well, you want me to make a list and send it over to the doc's office?" "Whoa." "What's his stipend?" "About thirteen grand a year plus medical, room and board." "Okay, so what's this?" "I didn't say there was anything wrong with the shooting." "Then I guess I don't understand why I can't get back in the field." "You read my report." "While there is no evidence to suggest a breach of bureau protocol, agent's fieldwork should be limited to allow time for continued rehabilitation." "Um, what exactly am I rehabilitating, Agent Schmidt?" "Any agent who's involved in a shooting needs time to process it, and you may need more time than others because ..." "Because ..." "I got shot." "Yeah." "Look, that was two months ago." "One thing has nothing to do with the other." "I am not trigger-happy, if that's what you're implying." "I am not." "Agent Spade, the issue is not your injury or your conduct in the field." "The issue... is your frame of mind which we are all concerned about." "My frame of mind, Agent Schmidt, is-is-is..." "My frame of mind is right where it should be, given the circumstances." "And where is that?" "Well, thank you for seeing me, and I," "I should get back and watch my desk." "Remind me to slam that OPR guy with a softball at the next spring picnic." "I'm not sure that's how you get on their good side." "Hey, have you got anything on Father Stevens?" "Okay" "He got a call on the rectory phone from the precinct at 11:40 the night he disappeared" "Okay, I'll call Martin and have him check that out." "Other than that, nothing interesting pops up." "Family is deceased, barely graduated high school ended up in a series of dead-end, minimum wage and seasonal jobs." "All in the same area?" "outh, Southeast, mostly Florida." "No arrests, two speeding tickets, entered the seminary at  .34" "Late bloomer." "Yeah." "And joining the church is when, from a background check perspective, his life gets really uninteresting except for four charges for rental cars in Fresco over the last thirteen months, the most recent... three weeks ago." "Which is interesting because ... ?" "There are no matching charges for plane tickets." "So, how'd he get there?" "Well, that is the question." "I'm working on it." "All right, this is Father Stevens' bible and most recent sermons." "There may be something in there that we can profile." "Jack wants you to take a look at it." "You've got to talk to him, Viv, get him to lean on OPR." "I am not getting into the middle of it." "This is taking too long." "I should be re-certified by now." "Samantha, you shot and killed two people." "Wait, two armed suspects who had their guns trained on me." "No one's doubting your actions, but they cannot rush you back into the field." "I am fine!" "Okay?" "I'm fine." "Restless is not the same as "fine"." "You don't think I'm ready, do you?" "no" "So, he'd come out to traffic accidents, shootings, whenever you guys had a victim in need of, spiritual support?" "Yeah, we'd call him if we couldn't reach the family's pastor ..." "Right." "Or they're tourists or something." "And the other night, did he seem different to you or preoccupied?" "He asked about my kids." "We talked about the Yankees." "When we got to the scene, he was good to them like always." "Whatever sins I have committed..." "Into thy hands, lord," "I commend thy spirit." "Oh, god, no." "You killed her, you..." "You killed my wife!" "You killed Lisa!" "You killed her!" "I'm so sorry." "Sorry" "I'm sorry." "It's okay." "So, when you drove him home, did he say if he was going someplace?" "He wanted to walk home." "After midnight in that neighborhood?" "I figured he wanted to clear his head." "He'd walk a bit and catch a cab to St. Germaine's." "I didn't anything would ever happen to him." "....promised land" "God says that because of his sins, he can't go in with them." "Now, frankly, I-I-I-I would've been angry." "I would've cursed God with every .nasty word in my vocabulary but the good news is ..." "Moses ain't me." "What he does is give the people a message of hope." "Verse eight:" ""The lord himself goes before you and will be with you." "He will never leave you nor forsake you."" "Moses knew." "God is always with you no matter what you do" "How long have you guys been coming here?" "Eleven months." "And everyone gets along?" "Yeah, everyone's cool." "No one comes here after school throwing attitude at you or at Father Stevens?" "no" "And of those eleven months, you've never seen Father Stevens argue with anyone?" "Excuse me." "Father, would you come with me, please?" "I don't think those boys are comfortable talking in front of a priest." "Well, I certainly wasn't at their age." "Were you?" "What makes you assume I was a catholic?" "You have the disillusionment of someone that used to believe." "I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to be presumptuous." "Hey, presume away" "Are you nervous, Sergio?" "'Cause your hands in your pocket... makes you look nervous, and usually when people are nervous, they're lying to me." "Are you lying to me, Sergio?" "Is he lying to me?" "Look, Father Stevens is a good guy, all right -- I got no beef with him." "Okay, well, someone does, nd I'm trying to save his life, and you guys are not helping me." "There's this kid." "He's been coming most days after school." "David something but he and Father Stevens they got along" "You know, the other day, I was sneaking out to go to the movies," "I told David to stay away from you, and now I'm telling you to stay away from David." "Theresa, I just want what's best for the boy." "Oh, what's best for the boy?" "You ruined our lives." "I-I just think..." "No, I don't care what you think." "Listen to me!" "I'm telling you." "It's really simple." "Stay away from my son." "David, honey, come on." "When was this?" "A couple days before the father went missing." "Did you see this, Mark?" "I wasn't there." "Do you think there's anything going on between Father Stevens and this kid?" "No." "All I know is that that David kid hasn't been back here since." "I had nothing to do with his disappearance." "Well, according to this report, a kid in the after-school program saw you fight with Father Stevens a couple days before." "Which kid?" "The same ones who beat David up, or the ones that call him names because his father ran out on us?" "Not great witnesses as far as I'm concerned." "Ms. Powers, that kid seems to think there's something going on between David and Father Stevens." "Well, there wasn't." "Then tell us what you were fighting about." "It's none of your business." "If Stevens went missing because he was abusing your son, then it is my business." "My son... was not being abused by anyone, and I have no idea where Father Stevens is." "Ms. Powers, we'd like to talk to David alone." "Is that okay?" "Um ..." "I'm sorry, but no." "If he has any information whatso..." "No!" "No" "I just want everyone to leave my son alone." "Can I go now?" "Sure." "Thanks for coming in." "I really don't think that priest did anything to that kid." "Do you think if she knew anything, she's admit it?" "That would give her motive." "Okay, I agree with you." "I think she's covering up for something." "I-I just don't think it's that." "I-I-I don't." "All right, fine." "Want you to set up for surveillance and find out what she is covering up." "Okay, so on each of the days, he used his credit card to rent a car." "Stevens also bought a round-trip plane ticket to Fresno with cash." "Well, he had to use a credit card, 'cause you can't rent a car without it." "Now, all four rental cars were driven between 121 and 134 miles." "He's headed to the same place." "Or the same person, and it's no more than 65 miles from the airport." "Could he have been seeing another doctor out there?" "I found no record of any medical charges at all." "No one at St. Germaine's knew that Stevens was headed out to Fresno." "So maybe he's really good at keeping secrets or he just doesn't tust his coworkers." "The money we found in Stevens' room had traces of ephedrine and rock alt." "Someone's making methamphetamine." "Yeah, and central California is the meth capital of America." "As many of you know," "Father Stevens is missing." "While he is currently lost to us, he is still in god's sight." "You all know Father MAZZONI from our sister church, St. Urban's." "He will lead us in prayer today for the afe return of our shepherd, Father Stevens." "In the name of the father, and of the son, and of the holy sirit, amen" "Dear Heavenly Father, we come to you today as a congregation to ask you to deliver back to us someone we love." "Bring him back to the people he serves, to the people who need him." "You didn't like the message today?" "Look, I don't know where Father Stevens is." "Now, why are you running from me?" "It doesn't make you look innocent." "You're not, are you?" "Do you have anything in here that might cut me or hurt me?" "Huh?" "You forgot to take the joints out of your pocket before you went to church today." "I don't know where he is, all right?" "He gave me a ride home the other day -- said he was going my way anyway." "He had to meet a guy." "Your uncle won't give you a job if you finish high school?" "No one's got the job now." "that's very nice that he offered you the job, but if you drop out of school, and then you lose the job, it'll be hard finding another one, you know." "But I could use the money." "Is he catholic?" "Well, I'll tell you what " " I'll talk to him." "Stay in school, Mark." "Those air conditioning repair jobs will be .... will be here soon enough." "Don't worry about it." "Okay, I'll be, uh..." "I'll be right back." "I didn't want to believe it." "I mean, he was always getting on us about using." "Things are not always the way they look." "They usually are." "I'm going to have Father Walker keep an eye on you." "If I find out that you got high, dropped out, messed up, anything..." "I'm going to come back here." "I'm going to straighten your ass out myself." "You got that?" "Get out of here." "Remind me to get a new desk, will you?" "So sorry to have kept you waiting, Agents." "We haven't been waiting too long, Your Eminence." "I hope it's okay I asked Father Greenwood to join us." "Father Greenwood wouldn't happen to be your in-house attorney, would he?" "we know you're here about Father Stevens." "We want you to understand that we'll do everything we can to cooperate with your investigation." "Great." "We'd like to talk about Theresa Powers and her son." "Yes, we've heard those rumors." "As of this morning, Father Stevens is suspended from his duties." "Our press office will have a statement." "That was fast." "Church takes accusations of sexual misconduct extremely seriously." "Are you aware, then, of his possible drug use?" "We found a large sum of money in Father Stevens' room which had traces of methamphetamine on it." "You didn't know." "No, I did not." "Well, just so that you know, all of our evidence, including what we have on his relationship with the boy is circumstantial." "Unfortunately, where there's smoke, there's usually fire." "You seem very anxious to cut Father Stevens loose." "Makes me think you're hiding something else." "In this climate, we must make it very clear to our community that we take the policy of zero tolerance extremely seriously, and that we are willing to act accordingly." "All right, thanks, bye." "Our guys that were trailing Theresa Powers just followed her into a cheap motel room in Queens." "Ten minutes later, somebody else shows up and meets her in the room." "Medium build, dark hair." "Walked in about 20 minutes ago." "Who registered for the room?" "She did." "She didn't use her own name." "FBI, open the door." "Come on, Theresa, let's go." "This isn't getting any better for you." "Step away from the door." "Please step away from the door." "Put your hands where I can see them, sir." "wait a minute" "You're the priest from St. Urban's" "I don't know where Father Stevens is." "When was the last time you saw him?" "About... five days ago, I guess." "He came over to St. Urban's to ask me about Theresa." "The boy doesn't know." "The boy knows!" "It's undermining his belief in the church, in God, his mother, everything." "The boy doesn't know." "He came to me, Anthony." "he can't figure out what to do with himself so" "you're going to report me then." "Not if you stop seeing this woman and get some counseling." "I'll try." "No, you don't try." "You either commit or you don't" "Okay" "It's that simple." "Okay!" "I will" "I'll stop." "Look," "I know what this might look like to you, but ..." "I tendered my resignation the day before Father Stevens disappeared." "I'm only staying on at St. Urban's until they find a replacement." "Did you know?" "I had no idea it was Father Mazzoni." "So you two had talked about it." "Many times." "He was struggling with what to do." "He seemed to have no problem giving Father Mazzoni the fire and brimstone treatment." "maybe he was trying to wake him up, because with me he was waffling, a lot more than I can understand." "Yes, they're two consenting adults, but what this priest is doing isn't right." "I know I have to protect the boy, but the priest's sins what right do I have to judge him?" "He's taken a vow of celibacy." "It signifies his dedication to God and his rejection of the physical world." "Violating it doesn't make him a bad man, just a poor priest." "maybe I should talk to him first, give him a chance to make things right before I run off to the cardinal and ruin his life" "We're supposed to hold ourselves to a higher standard, Henry." "nobody's perfect, Sean." "And you have no idea why he struggled so hard to make this decision?" "Well, Father Stevens had a great capacity for forgiveness." "Is it possible that he had his own secret?" "Something that made it hard for him to condemn Father Mazzoni?" "Well, you obviously think you know something I don't." "Well, there is evidence to suggest that Father Stevens was using drugs." "Maybe even dealing." "I spent every day with him." "I would have noticed something." "People are very good at hiding things, especially when they have a lot to lose." "Perhaps he lost his Faith." "Father Stevens wrestled with his Faith every day." "It was what made him a good priest." "He didn't believe God was going to hand him pat answers to difficult questions." "We're supposed to struggle to figure it out." "If Henry was going to die of liver disease, God expected him to find some purpose in it." "Maybe he couldn't." "Any possibility that he used the drugs to take off the edge?" "You know" "I see little slivers of what people are capable of" "I hear things in there, what we do to one another." "But you, you must see horrible things." "And yet you get up everyday, you put on your black suit, and you go to work, knowing that you will probably see a lot more." "What do you expect me to do, wait for God to find them?" "Maybe you don't believe in this, but you believe in something." "Power," "Vengeance," "Justice." "Everybody needs something to believe in." "You still haven't answered my question." "Father Stevens believes in Grace." "Drugs don't hold a candle to that." "So, did you ever see Father Stevens with this guy?" "ope." "He came in a few days before Doyle got here, said he wanted to rent him a room, paid me in cash like always, and that was it." "What do you mean, "like always"?" "Homeless guys, abused women and their kids hey're never here very long, just until he can find them someplace permanent" "Well, the Haywood Hotel." "Clearly a stepping stone for a better life." "He always pay cash?" "We'll lock up when we leave." "Thank you." "Smooth dismissal." "Well, Father Stevens is nothing if not generous." "It looks like he hasn't been here in a while." "This guy's an ex-con." "What?" "Prison art." "What, did you do a nickel at pelican bay?" "'Cause if you did, I'm going to be a whole lot nicer to you." "Nah, actually I did an internship at a state prison, taught accounting." "And I received several of these lovely cigarette box knickknack holders as thank-you gifts." "Like my grandmother always said," ""you can take the con out of jail, but you can never take the jail out of the con."" "Morrow Ridge Federal Prison is right here." "Round trip from fresno 126 miles" "So Stevens was visiting Doyle in prison." "Here's my theory." "Back in the old days, before Stevens became a priest, he was running drugs, in Florida, with Doyle." "Let me see the file." "Doyle got out of prison two and a half weeks ago after serving a 20-year sentence for running a meth lab." "So what, the meth in Stevens' room was twenty years old?" "Money you found was old and crinkly, right?" "Yeah." "I'll bet it was Doyle's take from their last big score." "Steven's was holding the cash for Doyle," "Doyle got mad when Stevens started to give the money away." "So why visit Doyle in prison?" "Maybe he was trying to rehabilitate him." "Maybe that's why he brought him to New York." "Either way," "Doyle has got to know where Stevens is." "Has Doyle made contact with the parole office?" "give me the case worker's numbers" "Hey, hey, hey." "That's the parish car." "Listen, I got to go." "I got to go." "Bye." "I'll take the passenger side." "Doyle, FBI." "Slowly throw the keys out the window." "Now slowly exit the car." "Keep your hands where I can see them." "What'd I do?" "I didn't do anything." "Where is he?" "I don't know what you're talking about." "Father Stevens, that's what I'm talking about." "You've got his car." "I didn't steal it." "I get it he gave it to you, right?" "Kind of like, uh," ""congratulations for getting out of the slammer" gift." "no" "He came by the hotel the other night, he wanted my help." "God, Hank, what happened?" "It was an accident." "let me take you to the hospital" "No, no, no ..." "listen, uh..." "I've got to get to Florida, I've got a car downstairs." "if you were in an accident, I got to take you to see a doctor." "I wasn't in an accident, I gave rites ..." "I gave last... ast rites to a woman and, uh ... she's dead." "I'm sorry!" "he didn't mean to kill her." "he didn't mean to kill her." "no" "But Doyle, this guy's given last rights a million times." "What freaked him out this time?" "I don't know." "You haven't been out of prison for more than two weeks, yet you decide to violate the terms of your parole and leave the state without permission?" "Come on, this guy's dying, what was I supposed to do?" "And what about vestaments in your room, huh?" "I'm not stupid" "Nothing on the car, no blood, no sign of struggle, no trace evidence to suggest that he was carting Father Stevens around in the trunk." "Any chance he scrubbed it down?" "No" "They found a new liver for him." "What?" "Yeah." "But if we don't get your friend back in eight hours, they're going to give that liver to somebody else." "And your friend's going to die." "Where is he, Doyle?" "I don't know, I swear it." "He ditched me." "When?" "Last night." "Hank, let's go back and go see your Doctor." "No, no, no, no." "We've only been on the road, what, five hours, and you're falling apart." "I'm just tired" "It's been a long day." "Stop for a few hours, get some sleep" "Hank ..." "Ah, no, listen..." "If I don't feel better when we wake up, then I'll go back." "No arguments, no arguments." "I cross my heart, hmm?" "You're just tired?" "Yeah ... like you don't believe." "When I woke up, he was gone." "He left the keys for the Taurus and some gas money, and that rosary you found." "And you just drove back to New York." "No, I looked everywhere." "He might, he must have hitched a ride or taken a bus or something." "We know about the money." "We do." "Was it his?" "Or was it yours?" "Huh?" "I'm going to take a guess." "The reason he helped you get out of prison is because he helped you get in there in the first place." "Tell me I'm right." "Hmm?" "It happened a long time ago." "Before he became a priest." "So you got busted" "He didn't." "What happened?" "We were brewing a batch in this dumpy house outside of Jacksonville." "Thought we heard something outside." "We were both high." "I stayed too long." "And Stevens got away." "With the money?" "$38,000 and change." "What, you've been in contact all along?" "no" "I'd been away sixteen, almost seventeen years before he showed up the first time." "Come walking into the visitor's room, and there he is." "Sitting up straight with that collar." "I burst out laughing." "I thought he was wearing a costume." "What did he say to you?" "That he was sorry." "Sorry?" "For what?" "For ditching me." "And for not stopping by sooner." "Maybe he's telling the truth." "What, that they hit some kind of fork in the road?" "Doyle went to prison and Stevens went into the priesthood?" "Maybe we're just too cynical to believe it to be true." "the only thing that people learn from getting caught is how to be more careful." "Well, come on, Jack." "Father Stevens is using his old drug money for charity." "Getting Doyle out of jail." "Whatever he's doing, he's on some kind of mission." "Great, thank you." "Vivian." "You were right." "It wasn't just Doyle's arrest that scared Stevens." "There was a car accident that night about fourteen miles from the meth lab." "Like the one he saw on the night he disappeared." "No, a hit-and-run." "Alex Bradford, 17-year-old, high school football star died at the scene." "The driver of the other car was never found." "Fork in the road." "Yeah," ""through love and faithfulness, sin will be atoned for."" "Proverbs." "He used it in a sermon a couple of weeks ago." "Okay, this football star, his parents still alive?" "They live in Florida." "Way to watch your desk." "Thank you very much." "You stay here." "I got it." "Go easy on him." "Don't I always?" "Henry Stevens?" "Special Agent Jack Malone." "I'm here to take you back to New York." "FBI?" "Listen, Father ... a liver has become available." "There's a surgical team standing by, but we have to go now, or they're going to move to the next person the list." "I'm sorry, I know you've come a long way, but ..." "I can't." "There's something I have to do." "Alex Bradford?" "You know?" "You dying won't bring him back." "Living hasn't brought him back either." "I thought it was a miracle that I'd gotten away with all that money, then I read in the paper that" "Alex had died." "I killed him." "Nothing was ever the same." "Saul on the Road to Damascus." "Mm-hmm" "I tried running away, and one day I ended up in church, and I was sitting in the dark, in the back" "and I heard a voice say," ""My Son,"" "and it was a priest was smiling down on me." "Father, there's a lot of people waiting for you in New York." "I'm going to die soon, and I cannot leave this life until I wash this stain from my heart." "Why don't you go inside, say what you have to say, come out, and we'll get you to New York as quickly as possible." "no" "your only Begotten Son, whose life, death and resurrection has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life." "Grant, I beseech thee, that we meditate upon these mysteries, and imitate what they contain, and obtain what they promise, through the same Christ, Our Lord, amen" "Thank you for looking for me." "What are you still doing here?" "Why don't you go home?" "Paperwork." "I talked to Schmidt in OPR." "You can go back into the field, under one condition." "What?" "We want you to see the in-house counselor." ""We?"" "Okay, me." "No." "Samantha, you may not think that I'm the best person qualified to talk to you about this ..." "But this kind of event can have long-term fallout, and you've got to deal with it." "I just feel like you've lost faith in me." "Nobody has lost faith in you." "Least of all me." "Come on, I'll walk you out." "Subtitles:" "Dizzy"
