I don't like this, Gabi.
Stay put.
If Sir even senses I'm not alone,
he could kill Lacey without hesitation,
if he hasn't already.
I need you to stay positive, okay?
Something's wrong, Dhan. I can feel it.
And you saw that house, all that blood,
the poisoned sandwich
he wants Lacey gone.
Until we have concrete
proof, Lacey's still alive,
and Sir isn't escalating.
That's why I'm here.

What did you do to my car?
It is impolite to answer
a question with a question.
I raised you better than that.
I'm trying to help.
Help who?
For over 20 years, you have
inflicted pain and trauma
on Gabi and her friends.
Isn't it enough?
You talk about Gabrielle
as if you know her.
You don't.
You couldn't possibly
understand our bond
- You're delusional, Hugh.
- Why?
Because you've never witnessed
anyone care for me? Hm?
Because our dear mother
loved you and despised me?
Well, little brother,
the tables have turned.
I am loved.
I have purpose now.
Gabrielle needs me.
And I know she wouldn't
summon you, so who did?
- A detective from DCPD.
- Ahh.
Heavy Boots.
He wants to be the hero
and win Gabrielle's heart.
But he is beneath her.
A poor man's Petrovitch
could never impress her.
This isn't some Dostoevsky novel.
This is real life.
Hugh, please.
I know there's good inside
you because that good saved me.
When the house caught on fire, remember?
You saved me.
You tried to save Mom.
I know who you really are inside.
Let that poor girl go.

You are my blood.

Okay, can we can we go back?
Can you say that again? I mean, he
he rigged your car?
It was just the alternator.
But you were shaken enough to believe
it was something else for a while.
I honestly don't know
what to believe anymore.
I hadn't seen my brother in decades.
Your brother's diabolical.
You either missed the
signs or ignored them,
but Sir didn't become
this way overnight.
- I'm sorry.
- Your brother's actions
are not your fault.
But not coming forward
to help the authorities
20 years ago after Gabi escaped, is.
I know.
If I'd chosen not to put my
privacy and my sanity first
and tried to help track
him down at the time,
then we wouldn't be
in this situation now.
Is that why you're here?
Guilt?
Partly, yes.
And because someone owes
all of you an apology
for what has been done to
you in the Evans family name.
Did he say anything to give you
any indication that Lacey's still alive?
No. But while my brother
is capable of a lot of things,
the one thing he's not is a killer.

Who killed your mother?
What are you talking about?

And now to the disappearance
of Betty Conley,
the widow who was engaged
to convicted DUI revenge
murderer Ivan Samuels.
She disappeared on the day
of her jailhouse wedding,
but well-placed police sources
are calling it a case of cold feet.
Do you know the missing woman?
Paula called me about Betty last night.
I didn't think we had time to
take it on because of Lacey,
but look at that picture.
Look at her body language.
That picture doesn't
say cold feet to me.
So if she didn't just walk
away willingly, then
Something happened to her.
You're not suggesting
no, we cannot pull focus from Lacey.
This is about Lacey
and saving Betty's life.
This case is right up Sir's alley.
He will see himself in
Ivan, a misunderstood man
trying to fight for the woman he loves.
- He'll reengage.
- Oh, so y-you're gonna
use this poor woman as bait?
I want to save her life.
But if that helps activate Sir,
I won't say sorry for that.
If Betty's case could
get Sir to reengage,
then maybe this is a good plan.
No, I will not play into
that bastard's hands anymore, okay?
I I'm going to Zeke's.
We'll find Lacey ourselves.
Go with her. Keep her and Zeke safe.
Keep working on Lacey's case.
I hate that we're at
each other's throats.
One thing at a time. Let's
get Lacey and Betty home,
and then I'll deal with
the damage I've done.
You have an update on Lacey?
No, but I need to talk to you.
Besides Lacey, there's
nothing for us to talk about.
It's about Betty Conley.
- The runaway prison bride?
- I scanned her socials,
and I don't think that
this is a case of cold feet.
This is a missing person.
Fine. Give me what you've got,
- and I'll take it from
- No, either we work this
together or I'll find her on my own
and before you argue with me,
every minute we waste, an innocent woman
could be in danger.
Shouldn't your resources
be focused on finding Lacey?
I think this case could
draw Sir's attention.
Jesus Christ, Gabi. Seriously?
Look, I will do anything
to bring Lacey home,
and so will you, whether
you admit it or not.
Fine. I will help with the case.
But let's get one thing clear,
if it's not regarding Lacey or Betty,
I don't want anything to do with you.
[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]
Paula's trying to get a
comment from Betty's son.
He claims he hasn't heard
from his mother in two days.
Well, it's easy enough to verify.
We should have cell records
by the time we get back.
So why does a successful
real estate developer
fall in love with a murderer?
Maybe you can shed some
light on why people make
those kinds of reckless choices.
The totality of a person
shouldn't always be defined
by their biggest mistake.
Mistake? He killed a woman.
Ivan snapped
after his daughter was
killed by a drunk driver.
In a grief-filled rage, he
went over to the man's house.
He fired a couple of
shots. He had no idea
the driver's wife was
in the line of fire.
Trauma can cause people
to do terrible things.
That doesn't make Ivan
evil. It makes him wrong,
which he is paying for willingly.
Will you be as willing?

Your 72 hours are running out, Gabi.
[DOOR BUZZES]
♪
Ms. Mosely, it is an honor to meet you.
Thank you so much for taking the time.
Nobody else seems to
care about my Betty.
I do. And I'm here to listen.
I'm Detective Trent, DCPD.
Let's start at the beginning.
How'd you meet Betty?
[SIGHS]
Never thought I'd find love here.
Prison is hell.
And for the longest time,
I just wanted to die.
And then you met Betty.
Her church volunteers here.
She didn't she didn't judge me.
She told me God forgave me and that
that I should forgive myself.
She made me feel human again.
We'd talk on the phone, write letters.
We fell in love.
Yeah, the other version of this story
is that you met a lonely,
naive woman in prison
and thought she was an
easy target to manipulate.
I can see how people think
that, but it is not true.
I love her. And she loves me,
even though she was hesitant
to admit it at first.
Because you're in prison?
She was too afraid to fall in love again
after her husband died.
She told me she didn't want
to feel that pain anymore,
but before she could stop
it, she was in love with me.
She went missing on
your wedding day, right?
Just didn't show up?
Can you think of any reason
anyone would want to harm Betty?
Lot of people talking trash
about her for being with me.
They they say she's crazy, desperate,
that she deserves whatever
happens to her because of me,
because I killed an innocent woman.
I really wish I could
go back in time and
and handle my daughter's
death differently,
but I can't.
Betty shouldn't be punished
because of what I did.
Please, she is a good
person. Please find her.
I promise, we'll do everything we can.
Loneliness kills people,
and isolation is torture.
Instead of suffering, Betty
Conley was lucky enough
to find love in an unexpected place,
a love none of us should judge.
She is a woman of God,
a woman of empathy.
She's a mother and, yes, a fiancée.
Please help us find her.
The DCPD and I are working closely to
closely
I apologize. Um
Ms. Mosely, you've been
under tremendous stress
since Ms. Quinn has been
missing over 48 hours.
Uh, yes, but I would like
to shift focus back to Betty.

♪
That ought to do it.
[TENSE MUSIC]
You know, it's incredible
how easily lying comes to you.
I meant everything I said about Betty.
No one should be
judged for wanting love,
and she deserves to be found.
The only thing I lied about
was losing consciousness.
You didn't think it was
important to clue me in
- on your plan?
- It had to be believable,
which means your
reaction had to be real.

Be nice to your cousin.

Denise, I am so sorry.
It's fine. Don't worry about it.

Oh, so now my mom's safety matters?
Suddenly, my mom's

She was always important, Eric.
Now, you can spend your time being mad,
or you can help me find her.
When is the last time
you heard from your mom?
My mom and I are very
close. We talk every day
multiple times a day once
she started dating that felon.
For what it's worth, I do
believe their love is real.
[SCOFFS]
Look, I know my mom's
been through a lot,
but the woman who raised me would never
fall in love with a murderer.
I mean, you read about
these people in prison.
All they have is time
time to manipulate and fool
lonely old women who
just want to be loved.
That's actually why
I moved back in here.
I figured if I stepped up,
maybe she'd be less lonely,
less susceptible to him.
But instead, she doubled
down and got engaged.
See? This is why she
needs a conservatorship.
She's not in her right mind.
♪
Hm. Looks like someone left in a hurry.
I don't need to call
you! My mom's missing!
I-I don't know what you want from me!
Eric, not another word.
Mr. Craig, I am not a
cop. I'm Gabi Mosely.
I'm investigating Betty's disappearance.
I, on the other hand, am the cop.
Good. I'm Mark Craig.
I'm the Conley family attorney.
My client will not be
answering any further questions
without my consent.
You are so not my lawyer, bro.
The retainer your mother put me on
when you were 15 would beg to differ.
I don't have anything to hide.
Ask me whatever you want.
Are you in Betty's will?
Wh-why do you need to know that?
Children usually go after
conservatorship of their parents
for one of two reasons.
The parents are incapacitated
or they want control of the money.
Which one are you?
My mom had Mark make Ivan
the sole beneficiary of her estate.
That's not why I tried to
get the conservatorship.
But that's how I knew
something was wrong with her.
And as Betty's lawyer, you felt that was
a good idea, Mark?
Well, I tried to talk her out
of it, but she was adamant.
As you can see, stubbornness
runs in the family.
But I can't say I don't understand why.
She was lonely.
Eric never comes around
unless he needs money.
That's not true. And don't act like
you can psychoanalyze my
mother and her motivations
just because your wife
rubbed two nickels together
and got some online therapy degree!
You know what?
Detective, you can ask
him whatever you want.
DCPD already tossed this place.
What are we looking for, Zeke?
Fingerprints, receipts,
whatever we can find.

Makes sense. Your strong feelings

It's a credit card.
It's our first real lead. Bag it up.
I may be able to digitally recreate it.
You heard anything from him?
No. But Sir will call, I know it.
But as it relates to Betty,
her son is a piece of work.
Based on the financials
that Shaker sent over,
Eric is a big spender
with a lot of debt.
Every single one of his credit
cards are in collections.
Defaulted on his car
loan, summary judgments.
Betty had to cosign on his apartment.
So if she marries Ivan,
the gravy train comes to an end.
Well, I have someone else we can add
on the suspect list with Eric Ivan.
The warden down at his
prison tossed his cell
and found a contraband phone.
It's over in evidence
down at the station.
Funny, he didn't mention
that when we talked.
Huh. This is his disciplinary file.
This contains copies of
messages from his phone.
"200 for Rialto. 850 for Riverside."
- Is he placing bets?
- No.
They're hits,
usually for assaults, maybe more.
And that would explain
all the money on his books.
Transaction records from
his commissary account.
Thousands of dollars,
all from Betty Conley.
So she was bankrolling
his prison empire.
Maybe Betty's son was right.
If Ivan was just using her,
the minute she changed her will,
he no longer needed her alive.
But he needs evidence
she's dead to collect
on the money she left

It's interesting, you
sound perfectly healthy,
and yet I saw you collapse.
It was just a fainting spell.
How's Lacey?
You're disappointing me, Gabrielle.
If you lose me, you'll have
no one because you're alone.
You talk about M&A as your family,
but yet none of them were there
by your side at the press conference.
They must be angry with you
after you told them everything.
And just as the world
has judged Ivan and Betty,
you and I are being judged.
Interesting Heavy Boots was there.
Have you not told him about us,
about the inevitability
of our companionship?
It's Trent means nothing to me.
He's a means to an end.

Already on it. Besides toiletries,

Okay, Ivan lands at
the PD in 15 minutes.
I need to get there. I

About that, uh, an FBI associate
has a connection to a former inmate.
Word is, Ivan was in business
with a prisoner named Patrick Abbott.
The guy is bad news.

Tell me you know something, anything.

Why would you say that?
We took a look at your phone.
You took a lot of money from Betty,
money you've used to spread
around to other inmates.
Look, I know what this looks like
Yeah, like someone ordering hits.
It's the opposite.
Most inmates are forgotten.
They don't have access to basic things
that make them feel human.
I use the money to get them things
like soap, shower shoes, ramen.
So you're the Robin
Hood of Cell Block D?
It was Betty's idea. She is generous.
I told you that.
So those texts was
just you putting money
on people's books?
And paying for their protection.
Shower shoes aren't all that useful
if the Aryan Brotherhood
break your feet.
I have to ask you, Ivan,
did you order a hit on Betty
so you could get her money?
Betty changed her will in your favor.
You'll be released someday.
Might be nice to go home to a fortune.
She did what?
You didn't know about the will?
No, and if she'd have told me,
I would have said, don't do it.
So you didn't mention it to
your friend Patrick Abbott?
Patrick Abbott is no
friend. He's a sick bastard.
He made my life absolute
hell until he got transferred.
He's out?
He's out, isn't he?
He's out, isn't he? Patrick Abbott,

You're just making
this worse for yourself.
He is out?
Hey, talk to me, Ivan.

That's not surprising.

same after I got kidnapped.
Sir did that.

Hello, Gabrielle.
It's the morning, and there's no news
of a reunion for Betty's family.
Clearly, you need my help.
- What?
- He seems off.
Something I-I can't
put my finger on it.
We have exhausted all suspects.
We're at a dead end. I need you.
Yes, yes. Ivan and Betty are soulmates,
two halves of a whole with
the world against them.
Right, no one understood
what drew them together,
but they were destined for each other.
Romeo and Juliet.
Exactly, exactly. He's you must
you must find the Capulets,
the the Montagues,
those who had other
plans for them and
and are now enraged that
that Betty dared disobey.
Something is definitely off.
He's about to tell me
that we need to focus
on everyone who tried to drive
a wedge between Betty and Ivan.
You you must look
at those within who
who wished them harm
for for selfish reasons,
everyone who wished to
drive a wedge between them.
You are absolutely right.
Now, can I, uh
Gabrielle?
Nothing. Uh
All right, you you must find Betty.
Ivan and her belong together.
You you must reunite them.
I will.
- Is he right?
- No, he's wrong.
He's always had a
misguided view of love,
both in reality and in fiction.
Romeo and Juliet weren't
killed by either feuding family,
but by the priest who gave them poison,
who was trying to help.
Who in Betty's life would
be most protective of her,
who would go to extreme lengths
to keep her from marrying Ivan,
out of love, not out
of greed or jealousy?
Well, definitely not Betty's son.
BOTH: Betty's lawyer.
That is our Capulet priest.
- He was practically family.
- Yeah.
He worked with Betty for decades.
He couldn't stand Eric
because he was leeching off of Betty,
so Eric was an easy scapegoat
to try and throw us off.
That's why he came down so
hard on him when we were there.
He would have had
access to her schedule,
and she would have
trusted him implicitly.
I'll call in an APB.
Okay, but where would he have taken her?
It wouldn't be his house or the office.
Too many people may have seen him.
I just checked, he has a
deed for a country house
in Lake Anna. It's in
the middle of nowhere.

Thank you for helping.
Go save her, Gabi.
[EXCITING MUSIC]
DCPD! Everybody on the ground.
Betty Conley?
I'm Gabi. Ivan sent me.
- You're safe now.
- Oh, thank God.
They've been holding me here for days.
- I'm sorry.
- How could you do this to me?
You're supposed to be my friends.
We are your friends. We were trying
to protect you from yourself.
I'm guessing you're the therapist wife.
I'm a behavioral interventionist.
Mark asked me to help.
Ivan brainwashed you.
We didn't want you to make a mistake.
We did this because we love you.
You're both going to jail.

I can't thank you enough, Gabi.
I honestly don't know how far
they would have gone
if you hadn't shown up.
Thankfully, you'll
never have to find out.
At least something
good came out of this.
My son is on his way. [CHUCKLES]
He said after the doctors check me out,
he's gonna take me to see Ivan.
He wants to meet him, finally.
- Thank you.
- Of course.
There's got to be a code.
Where do we start?
Shakespeare.
Which tragedies focus on
an innocent person's death?
Or there is no code and Sir
is just screwing with us.
Are those the books he bought?
Something here has to lead us to Lacey.
We just don't know what.

These are the books
Sir had waiting for me
at the farmhouse when he took me.
♪
Lacey's either dead or she will be soon.
How could you say that?
These books mean Sir
is ready to start over.
He's going to kidnap another
child, my replacement.
The only reason why he would replace me
is if he had done something to make
the chance of his
fantasy an impossibility.
- We have to stop him.
- Sir's smart.
He would have stalked this
new victim for a while.
Dhan, alert all the schools
near the last house he had Lacey.
Zeke, I want you to find
every school and park,
everything near that payphone,
and get units over there at once.
Hurry. Now.
I'll call Trent and
have him send backup.
♪
I'm sorry I lied to you,
but I knew you would try to stop me.
Those books were not a signal
that Sir was starting over.
They're a message to
me that Lacey is alive.
The puzzle books are
the same as the ones
I gave Lacey when she was young.
Sir bought a copy to tell
me where he and Lacey are.
You will find Lacey at
her old childhood home,
but by the time you
get there, I'll be gone.

What did you do to her?
She did it to herself.
She, ah, hit her head,

comfortable as I could.
I'm so glad you understood
the message in my books.
I was certain no one else would,
except you, my brilliant Gabrielle.
So the only way this ends
is if I come with you.
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
This was never about Lacey.
This was you teaching me another lesson.
When I took you to the farmhouse
all those years ago, I
I thought I was saving you.
I truly thought and believed
that you wanted to become a family.
But you made it clear that I
was holding you against your will.
It has to be different
this time, Gabrielle.
This time, it has to be your choice.
So will you go with me?
Yes.
It's just the two of us now

No, don't!

No, no, no! Lacey, Lacey,

I have to, Gabi.
No. No.
No, Lacey.
Lacey! Lacey!
I need an ambulance now.
