"Were there any problems at home?" "Okay, thanks." "Had he ever tried to run away?" "Okay, I appreciate it." "Thanks." "No problems at home." "Luis was a hard-working guy dedicated to his kid." "Nothing with Rafael either." "No problems at school or with his friends." "Detectives Nick Burkhardt and Hank Griffin, this is Detective Valentina Espinosa of albuquerque." "Hmm, long way from home." "She's got information on the missing child." "We've been tracking this unsub for a while." "If Rafael AIvarez is the first child taken, then we can expect two more before the day is out." "She did the same thing in New Mexico?" "And Texas, Colorado, Arizona and Utah, that we know of." "Seriously, she's abducted that many children?" "And if we don't act fast, they'II all be dead by morning." "This is research I've put together over the Iast five years."

"Want a lollipop?" "Thank you." "We have no forensic evidence, nothing but the bodies of the victims." "always two boys and a girl, between the ages of seven and 10." "AII drowned." "How many are we talking about?" "That's hard to say." "I think there's been as many as 15, but I don't know for sure." "I've been able to document 12, three in each of the Iast four years." "always before midnight on Halloween." "Same pattern, but there could be more." "Some kids just disappear and are never found." "Some of the bodies wash up miles from where they were taken." "This is the only image we have, compiled by a few witnesses." "Looks like the same woman we're dealing with." "You've seen this?" "Yeah." "We got an iPhone video." "It's on my computer." "There." "Oh, my God." "That's her." "You got an ID?" "No." "No, we never found one single fingerprint or any hard evidence." "But we have confirmation of witnesses who all identified the same image." "You said she drowns them?" "Yes." "When the bodies are found, if they're found, they're never close to where the children were taken." "They're much farther down the river." "But this woman is here now." "That would make Rafael AIvarez the first one taken here." "You said there's always three." "Yes." "When I Iooked at all the other cases, all the children were taken near where two rivers meet." "Look, one child goes missing here, another from here, and the third from here." "And you know this how?" "The same triangle described in every city by the same geographical abduction points." "It's her signature." "Houston, Denver, Yuma, and albuquerque." "Did the father of the missing boy say anything about hearing a woman crying?" "Yeah, he did, which is why he thought she was trying to kill herself." "AII the others who saw her heard her crying." "They all thought she was gonna kill herself in a river." "So this kid, Rafael, may already be dead." "Well, it's possible, but no bodies have ever been found until after midnight the day she takes them." "I think she kills them at the same time." "OFFICER:" "Captain." "I got that file you requested." "Um." "Excuse me." "So, you've been working on this one a Iong time." "I have." "Never gotten close?" "No." "What do you know about La Llorona?" "You know the story?" "It's a ghost." "Yes." "A ghost story." "A mother drowns her three children in revenge because her husband leaves her for a younger woman." "I think our killer believes she's La Llorona," "So we're not after a ghost." "Of course not." "She's a dangerous predator, and we must stop her tonight." "I want you to call the albuquerque Police Department, put in a request for a copy of Detective Valentina Espinosa's files." "Will do." "Anything specific we're looking for?" "AII the data relating to this case, everything they've got." "Roger that." "(CHILDREN YELLING)" "(LAUGHING)" "Wah!" "Ah!" "Boo!" "(SCREAMING)" "(WOMAN SOBBING)" "Why are you crying?" "Are you sad?"

"No one's ever seen anything." "You mean she just appeared?" "To the people that've seen her, she does." "91 1 just came in, another child abduction." "HANK:" "Where?" "Sauvie Island State Park."

"And his is where the dad said he saw his little girl going down the path." "We searched the woods up and down the riverbank." "This is all we found." "Is he the one who saw the woman?" "No, no, that's another guy who was fishing down the river." "Where is he?" "Well, we have him back at the cars." "AII right, Iet's bag it, get some photos of the area, and check for footprints." "Okay." "And let's talk to that witness." "Got it." "We found where the little girl was taken from." "We also have a witness." "Just hold on." "We need to talk to that witness." "I just spoke to the FBI 20 minutes ago." "There will be a third child taken." "And to the Captain of the albuquerque Police Department." "We can't afford to waste time." "Apparently, the only Valentina Espinosa they have on file was relieved of duty three years ago." "We need to find those kids now." "The FBI wants you held on grounds of impersonating an officer and interfering with a federal investigation." "But, sir, a second child was taken, and she was right about that." "This is now the FBI's case, and they want her back at the precinct." "There will be a third child taken." "Just listen to me." "Put her in the car, bring her in." "You don't understand." "We have no time for this." "(GROWLS)" "Don't do something you're going to regret." "A Wesen?" "Yeah." "A cop Wesen?" "What kind?" "I don't know." "I'm a Balam." "And you're a Grimm." "You're going to put me in that car and take me somewhere to kill me." "Look, we don't give a damn what you are." "We just want those kids back." "So we're going to take you to the precinct, Iike the Captain said." "But ifyou try anything, he's gonna blow your head off." "(CAR ENGINE STARTS)" "(HUMMING)" "Who is she?" "I think she's an angel." "That's awesome." "RENARD:" "How did you know a second child would be taken?" "Because there's always a second child taken, and then a third." "You seem to know an awful lot about this." "I've been following her for five years." "You were thrown off your police force because you were obsessed about all this." "Yes." "Were you involved with any of the kidnappings?" "No." "Where were you this morning when the first child was abducted?" "I was in New Mexico." "I made a plane reservation from there this morning." "You could still be involved with the woman that's here." "My sister's son was one of those taken." "Where?" "albuquerque." "How long ago?" "Five years." "You call what I'm doing an obsession?" "It is, but that's why." "'Cause we never found his body." "He was with me that day." "I saw the woman." "I heard her crying." "I went in the water to keep her from killing herself." "I've lived this again and again and again." "Lock me up, it will make no difference." "There will be a third child taken." "It doesn't matter what you think." "This is now the FBI's case."

"So do I." "So how do we cover 100 miles of riverfront?" "We can't, and we can't explain what Valentina's told us, how this woman appears and disappears in all these different places." "So what the hell do we do?" "HANK:" "Oh, man." "If this is real, how do you ever sleep?" "Well, you've got my back." "Yeah, but who's got mine?" "(EXHALES)" "I think I've got something."
