Missing While Targeted
1
Previously on "Found"
I remember Sir talking to someone
the day you rescued me.
Sir is not working alone.
Just admit the two of you
are working together.
This whole guilty by association crap,
you're better than that.
I am not him.
I think he has a plan
for you, for all of us.
When I hacked into DCPD
and went through Trent's case files,
I found notes about a letter
that Sir wrote to you
while he still had Lacey.
Apparently, DCPD intercepted it.
Trent didn't tell you
about this letter, did he?

Eliminating distractions means, uh,

Like, how are you gonna cope

Or whether or not
you two are gonna finally
talk through your issues.
Wait, and you still
haven't given them an answer
- about re-enrolling?
- I need more time.
Did you talk to your dad
about getting your gear back?
He says it's not the,

- So how long could it be?
- Might be a while.
But until then, at least I've got my hot

So different. but, like, in

He left two nights ago,
and he never came back.
But he left me this note.
"I'm sorry. Trust me.
"I'll make you proud.
I love you."
- How long have you guys
- Almost two years.
We met at rehab.
I was his peer support counselor,
and we just clicked. [CHUCKLES]
Ian has this gift of making
everyone feel so special.

He's a remarkable man
when he's sober.
When did he relapse?
Two weeks ago.
Oh, God, I tried to help him

to trust him.
- Why don't you?
- I do.
I waited two full nights

Checked and checked.
Now, he did have a record
back when he was using,
but it's been good ever since.

Oh, I'm so sorry.
It's, um it's one of my sponsees.
It's OK. You can step outside

Eileen left me with Ian's laptop.

Maybe he still has
some secrets after all.
Have you heard from Gabi?
I texted her to let
her know about the case,
but I haven't heard back yet.
- It feels off, right?
- No.
It's barely morning, Dhan.
And she said something last night
about running a personal errand.
Besides, everything feels
a little off these days.
Zeke's tech is gone.
You and Ethan aren't even
fighting for your marriage.

Thankfully,
she's recuperating with Taylor,

we would know

She'll be back when she's ready.
For now, it's just us.

I know the whole addict thing
can be triggering for you.

it brought up a lot of stuff
about your friend Mike, and
listen, I'll just I'll shut up.
No, no, it's OK.
Working David's case earlier this year,
it was hard.
It was actually a gift.
Gave me some clarity around Mike
and some understanding
about what an addict
can and can't control.
Oh!
I'm loving emotionally vulnerable Dhan.
Seriously, I'm really proud
that you're showing
this side of yourself more.
OK, back to Ian.
I got the name of his dealer

Gabi, there were no pictures,
no evidence at all that Sir was there.
I saw him, and there were photos
of seven young children.
I am not crazy, Trent.
And yet you tried
to take on Sir by yourself.
I didn't know Sir was gonna be there.
I thought he had left a clue
about a missing child.
The one from the clipping.
Gabi, you all right? What happened?
She took a blow to the head,
either from Sir or Gabi thinks
there was an accomplice there.
I was looking right at Sir

Wait, wait, wait. You saw Sir alone?

Well, at least we know
where he's been hustling.
Ian's hustle, when he's using

We have no way of IDing the other guy.
Actually, we think
we may have found him.
Yeah, on Ian's laptop, there was
Whoa.
You should be in bed.
And seriously, Zeke?
You are supposed to be
knocking before entering now.
Do not make us fire our receptionist.
And Zeke had nothing to do
with the laptop.
I accessed it myself, me.
You done now, Trent?
'Cause I'd actually like to hear
what my team found
and hopefully save a life.
I found a text from this guy, Jimmy.
It was sent the day Ian went missing.
"You were supposed to have my back.
"Now you better watch yours,
'cause I will kill you
for what you did."
Jimmy is likely the guy in the video,
Ian's partner in crime.
And he was caught, so
he's clearly in the system.
- Can you grab him?
- Sure, give me a few.
I'll meet you down at DCPD.
Something's going on with Trent.
Earlier, when I asked for help,
he basically told me to back off.
And now he's, what, Mr. Teammate?
It might be residual whatever
from finding me unconscious
and the Sir of it all.
But trust your instincts.
Head down to the courthouse.
See what else you can dig up on Ian.
- On it.

see what you can find out
about Lawrence Johnson.
Went missing around 1984.

Want to tell me about Lawrence Johnson?

Wait. What happened with Jimmy?
Not much.
He's mad at Ian for leaving
him holding the bag, literally,

It's kind of hard to kidnap someone
when you've been in custody
ever since you last saw him.
His airtight alibi is us.
Damn. All right.
I gotta get to the press conference.
Uh, actually,
I think you should hold off.
We don't know what Ian was
involved in or with who.
A press conference could
put him in even more danger.
A press conference could save his life.
We are making progress.
Progress? Jimmy was a dead-end.
What is going on with you?
No, never mind.
We've already lost enough time.
Stop.
I need to talk to you about
what happened at that school.
A person's life is at stake, Trent,
and you wanna talk about Sir nonsense?
You were consorting with a fugitive.
Are you serious right now?
Ever since Lacey was kidnapped by Sir,
you have been talking with him
on the sly,
meeting him without telling me.
And now it turns out,
right when you start saying
Christian was involved, he goes missing?

Now he's missing.
Watching from the outside,

So Zeke hacked into my email
and got you the letter from Sir.
Am I right?
Interrogating someone
fresh out of the hospital
with a head injury
is a new low, even for you.
- He hacked into DCPD
- Not to mention
putting Ian's life at risk
by keeping me away from the case
and putting Zeke's life at risk
by leaving him
without his tools
to defend himself against Sir.
Who the hell are you?
That's the second time
you mentioned Zeke
defending himself against Sir.
Did something new happen?
Sir showed up at Zeke's house,
essentially to taunt him.
You need to release my client right now.

Hey, Zeke, Margaret's here.
Well, kind of here. She's on monitor.
Don't get too comfortable, Margaret.
That's my spot.
[LAUGHTER]
How are we doing
with the tip line, Zeke?
Uh, it's been buzzing with
mostly fake Ian sightings,
but one interesting pattern emerged,
which is why I'm calling.
Three people called saying they
saw Ian locked up in a drunk tank.
Thing is, the sightings were
all in different precincts.
Well, that doesn't make any sense.
Why would he go from one precinct
to another in less than two days?
I wondered the same thing.
Now, all three were
basically blackout drunk,
so maybe it's nothing.
Except I found something
in Ian's records.
About two years ago, the last
time he was sentenced to jail,
he got released extremely early.
Well, could it have been
an overcrowding problem?
I checked, but they were under capacity.
Sentence modification order?
I looked at that, too. Nothing.
Something happened to spring him early.
Exactly.
From around the same
time frame, I found this.
What if Ian was on the same tier
as where this deadly beatdown happened?
It would be easy enough to
verify with his jail records.
I'll get on it.
If Ian witnessed the killing,
that would explain why
they let him out early
in exchange for his cooperation.
But that was two years ago.
The law moves pretty slowly,
especially when
they're taking on corrupt cops
or corrections officers.
So, if Ian was a witness
They could finally be
convening the grand jury
to investigate the officers.
The note he left for Eileen.
He said that he wanted
to make her proud.
He meant he was gonna do
the right thing and testify.
Jail records match.
He was locked up
when this murder happened.
So what if the tips are right
about the different drunk tanks?
Law enforcement could be
protecting Ian until he testifies,
shuffling him around, moving him
from precinct to precinct to make sure
he never lands anywhere.
But wouldn't Trent have been aware?
Damn right he would.
That's why he's been so weird,
why he didn't want us
to do the press conference.
Why he tried to take over the case.
That bastard didn't want us to find Ian.

To protect him.
You're no different than me.
Don't you dare
try and draw some moral equivalency
between what I did and what you did.
Ian came to me because he was in danger.

to get him sober so that
he could do his civic duty.

It's Zeke.
Hey, Zeke, Margaret's here.
Well, kind of here. She's on monitor.
Don't get too comfortable, Margaret.
That's my spot.
[LAUGHTER]
How are we doing
with the tip line, Zeke?
Uh, it's been buzzing with
mostly fake Ian sightings,
but one interesting pattern emerged,
which is why I'm calling.
Three people called saying they
saw Ian locked up in a drunk tank.
Thing is, the sightings were
all in different precincts.
Well, that doesn't make any sense.
Why would he go from one precinct
to another in less than two days?
I wondered the same thing.
Now, all three were
basically blackout drunk,
so maybe it's nothing.
Except I found something
in Ian's records.
About two years ago, the last
time he was sentenced to jail,
he got released extremely early.
Well, could it have been
an overcrowding problem?
I checked, but they were under capacity.
Sentence modification order?
I looked at that, too. Nothing.
Something happened to spring him early.
Exactly.
From around the same
time frame, I found this.
What if Ian was on the same tier
as where this deadly beatdown happened?
It would be easy enough to
verify with his jail records.
I'll get on it.
If Ian witnessed the killing,
that would explain why
they let him out early
in exchange for his cooperation.
But that was two years ago.
The law moves pretty slowly,
especially when
they're taking on corrupt cops
or corrections officers.
So, if Ian was a witness
They could finally be
convening the grand jury
to investigate the officers.
The note he left for Eileen.
He said that he wanted
to make her proud.
He meant he was gonna do
the right thing and testify.
Jail records match.
He was locked up
when this murder happened.
So what if the tips are right
about the different drunk tanks?
Law enforcement could be
protecting Ian until he testifies,
shuffling him around, moving him
from precinct to precinct to make sure
he never lands anywhere.
But wouldn't Trent have been aware?
Damn right he would.
That's why he's been so weird,
why he didn't want us
to do the press conference.
Why he tried to take over the case.
That bastard didn't want us to find Ian.

Ian?
It's OK, Ian.
You took him.
You lied to my face.

To protect him.
You're no different than me.
Don't you dare
try and draw some moral equivalency

Ian came to me because he was in danger.
He asked me to protect him,
to get him sober so that
he could do his civic duty.
