The court's closed, and my clerk already

The day before Thanksgiving is the worst

Is you and me here.
We could hang out all day and order in,

Sure.
That could work.
It could or it will?

I was told seven dead,
but I only see six bodies.
There's another dead monk
outside the admin office.
Figure he got it first,
and then the shooter came in here.
These are from a 9-millimeter.
Kinda surprising.
Most mass shooters use
AR-15-style semiautomatics.
Not always.
Dirtbag at Virginia Tech
used two pistols, as I recall.
So this guy was by the altar,
the shooter entered,
she tried to make a run
for it, didn't make it.
But these men, the monks,
didn't stand a chance.
Where'd you find the survivor?
She was a dancer here,
rehearsing for a special ceremony.
What kind of psycho goes
after monks and Buddhists?
People only here
for prayer and reflection.
Remy.
Looks like the shooter
locked everyone inside
before opening fire.
The dancers were trying
to escape when they were shot,
and the one who survived
had to play dead.
Make sure ERT sends the
padlock to the lab for prints.
If we get lucky, the killer
wasn't wearing gloves.
Guys, I found this in the
hallway outside the admin office.
I doubt the shooter
meant to leave it behind.
So he scouted the temple
beforehand and drew a map.
This attack was planned.
Guys, the survivor's
daughter just arrived.
She can help her mom translate.
♪
Did your mom get
a good look at the shooter?
[SPEAKING THAI]
[SPEAKING THAI]
She says it all happened too fast,
but they were using her phone
to record the rehearsal.
What the hell is that?
It looks like someone's
outside the door.
We don't get a great look at his face.
It'd be hard to ID him from this.
Looks like he's wearing one
of those plastic face shields.
They prevent facial rec software.
Hey, guys, I got something.
On Monday, someone shot
and killed a priest
outside a Catholic church
six miles from here.
Suspect still at large.
Hate Crimes thinks
this could be related.
Is someone targeting religious places?
Could be triggered
by the upcoming holidays,
Hanukkah, Christmas.
They're alerting all churches, temples,
mosques in a 30-mile radius.
Okay, Hana, you're on that video,
but I also need you to check the web
for any posts or online chatter
in case our shooter advertises plans.
Copy that.
You know, we still need
to notify the next of kin.
- Get intel on the victims.
- I'll help you with that.
Good.
Let's go see my friend at Hate Crimes
before he leaves for the holiday.
Find out about this dead priest.
We're sorry for your loss.
Now, you're listed
as an emergency contact
for two of the victims,
but you're not related to them by blood.
No.
Master Prem and Master Ram
don't have any family here.
They were brothers.
They only had each other.
And what can you tell us about them?
Well, they were from Thailand.
Small village by the sea.
They came here 30, 40 years ago.
[VOICE BREAKING] I volunteered
at the temple since 2005.
[SOBBING] We were like family.
Sorry.
[SOMBER MUSIC]
Can you think of anyone
who would want to target your community?
Who would want to murder Buddhists?
I know everyone who attends the temple,
even the people who only
visit for special occasions.
I have to cancel the New Moon Festival.
- When was that supposed to be?
- Today.
That's why the temple was open so early.
Visiting hours usually begin at noon.
On a regular day,
who's usually here
that early in the morning?
Only the monks.
They have sleeping quarters
there at the temple.
If he scoped the place out,
he probably didn't expect
anyone to be there.
Yeah.
What do the monks
usually do in the morning
before you open for visitors?
They usually begin
the day in the office,
then prayer and meditation, then rest,
but not today.
Why would someone do this to us?
We're not hurting anybody.
♪
Thanks, Phil.
Appreciate you, man.
Father Phinn Ruckle.
Minding his own business
last Monday morning when
he was shot on the street.
Weapon was a 9-mil.
Witness across the street
says she saw the perp
waiting outside the church.
As soon as the father
comes out, he attacks him.
Levels him with a
sucker punch to the head,
starts kicking him.
Then he pulls out his gun
and shoots him three times, point blank.
Any description on the shooter?
She said it was a guy
in a hoodie, medium build.
Didn't see his face.
By the way he ran off after her,
she thought it could possibly be a kid.
So he was stalking him?
Pretty much the same MO for our guy.
Forensics got touch DNA
off the padlock at the temple.
No hits in the system, but they
used it to come up with a sketch.
White male, dark hair.
Could this be him?
I don't know.
Hit me on Air Drop with that,
I'll send it to my witness.
At least it's a start.
Yeah.
You want to put a BOLO out
based on a phenotype sketch?
Yeah, I do.
But you can't accurately predict
physical characteristics off of DNA.
It's like trying to predict IQ
off of head size.
We all remember how a bad sketch
- derailed the D.C. sniper case.
- Yeah. We do.
But right now, this is all we got.
Well, not necessarily.
I know our unsub's height.
Well, I used a still
from the video image
and I measured the length of the shadow.
Now, based on the timestamp
from the video,
the exact location
of the sun at that time,
I figured he's 5'11".
Great put it on the description
and add it to the wire.
We need something
to get the tip line ringing.

His name is Arthit Anwar.
Home address is in the East Village.
Anwar, that's a common
Thai surname, I believe.
Still nothing that links our fugitive
to the murder of the priest.
Right, but the victim is Thai,
like most of them at the temple.
He could be specifically
targeting Asian Americans.
Well, whether religion or race,
hate crime is a hate crime.
We got to stop this guy.
Hopefully, this helps.
Thank you.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Victim's an Asian male?
Yeah, a couple civilians
saw the attack in progress.
One of them has
a concealed carry permit.
Chased the perp and fired at him.
Think this is the same guy
who shot up the temple earlier today?
It's looking that way,
and the timeline matches.
It's about a half hour
from Mount Vernon to the city.
Where can we find this vigilante?
Thank you.
The guy you chased, you see his face?
No, like I told the cops,
it all happened so fast.
We were running, plus he had a mask on.
Was it clear plastic?
Yeah, kinda. I don't know.
When am I getting my gun back?
How about never?
I have a permit.
Well, then, you should know
Central Park is a no-carry zone.
They passed the law this summer.
Yeah, and crap like this
happens all the time
because people stand by and do nothing.
I saved a lot of lives today.
Tell that to the Juilliard girl.
Your bullet just missed her left lung.
You know Asian hate crimes
have quadrupled this last year.
You guys need to do your jobs.
We are.
You know, and it gets harder
when idiots like you
try to play cops and robbers.
Okay.
That's the thanks I get?
The bellhop next door
said he saw him run down
this side of the street,
which means your cameras
most likely caught him.
I understand, but our residents
choose the Leckerbild because
we offer privacy and discretion.
They don't like people knowing
their comings and goings.
And I feel you, Carol.
I don't want to get you
in trouble with your residents,
all right?
I live in a walk-up.
I lived in a place like this,
it would make my hours
a lot easier coming home
to a friendly face like yours.
Just one look, please?
The camera's connected
to an app on here.
What time are you looking for?
Between 12:40 and 12:50.
Ooh, right there. Hold on a second.
Thank you.
You are a boss.
I hope you get some time off
this weekend.
- Thank you. Hey, Ray?
- Yeah.
ERT just ran a rapid test DNA
on the glove.
Matches the padlock.
This is definitely our guy.
All right, good,
because we just got plates.
Camera caught this guy
jumping into a silver Camry.
Nice work.
Remy's just a few blocks away.
Just wanted your team
to be the first to know
we caught that kid who shot
the priest in Mount Vernon.
- It was a kid?
- Yep.
You run his DNA?
It wasn't a match to your fugitive.
But he was known to local PD
for small time cash grabs.
Guess he graduated to murder.
All right. Thanks for the update.
So they arrested the priest
killer, it's not our guy.
Seems like there was no
religious motive after all.
Ray and Kristin just ID'd
the fugitive's getaway car.
It's a silver Toyota Camry.
They got the plates too.
Belongs to a Doris Moore
of Rochester, New York,
but she hasn't reported the car stolen.
Who else has access to it?
I'm searching residents in her area.
She's married with no kids
to an Adam Moore.
Hold on, Adam's driver's license
has him listed as 5'11".
Moore could be our guy.
But this guy's half Asian.
Well, it means the sketch
was half wrong.
I like to think of it as half right.
He's a chemistry teacher
at Rochester High.
All right, well,
school's in session today,
at least for some of the day.
I can contact the principal, see if Adam
called in a substitute this morning.
Can we ping his cell?
I just tried. Nothing yet.
Let's get a hold of his wife.
Find out what she knows.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
As soon as you called
and said Adam wasn't in school,
I came here.
And when you woke up this
morning and Adam wasn't home,
was there any concern at all?
No.
Sometimes Adam goes to school early
to see students one-on-one.
Lately, if he's not there, he's here.
You mind if I look around?
Fine.
It has been so hard on Adam
seeing his dad
suffer like this, and your
crazy accusations don't help.
Do you think your husband will try
to get in touch with his father?
I think that if you
wait here long enough,
Adam will walk through
that door and prove you wrong.
I mean, Adam adores his dad,
and they don't have
much time left together.
Sorry to hear that.
What is it that he's suffering from?
Lumbar disc disease.
There's no cure.
And with age, the chronic pain
has gotten unbearable.
Maybe seeing his father
like this was too much for him,
and he snapped.
Adam appears to be
targeting Asian victims.
Can you think of a reason
why that might be?
No.
Are you and your husband Buddhist?
No, Adam's mom was.
She died years ago when he was 15.
She was from Vietnam,
and we're still close
to that side of the family.
It gives my father-in-law
comfort to have this here.
A little token of his wife.
Thank you for your time.
♪
I just I just can't.
I'm in shock.
Adam's beloved around here.
Senior class just voted him
Best Teacher of the Year,
four years in a row.
He's been cooking up
something a lot more dangerous
than what he teaches,
I'll tell you that much.
Did you know he played hooky today?
No, but he's been having
problems with his father,
and the holidays, and I just figured
something was going on with his family,
so I called a sub in for him.
Is the United Nations part
of Adam's chem curriculum?
- No, why?
- I didn't think so.
He visited their website every day
for the last two weeks. Check it.
It sounds strange,
but maybe he was doing
some research into
some extracurricular project.
Research, my ass.
Okay, I'm looking up
their calendar of events.
Not much is happening this week
besides a Model UN conference
at one of their off-sites in Manhattan.
Wait a second.
UN Ambassador Jennifer Wong
is giving a speech there this afternoon.
She's Chinese American.
Adam went after soft targets
at the temple.
Maybe now he's going
after a hard target.
High profile Asian.
I'll tag Ray. Get ahold of NYPD.
Tell him we have a potential
active shooter situation.
Everyone needs to shelter in place.
We have to lock down
that conference now.
♪
WE've sealed off all the upper floors.
Nothing yet.
Just keep going, and then please
let me know once it's all completed.
Sure.
We've swept almost all
the floors and rooms,
no sign of Adam yet.
Everyone's in a shelter in
place until we give the all-clear.
Adam got into a silver Camry, right?
Yeah.
Wait a second, Adam was a chem teacher.
He'd know how to make a bomb.
I'm calling it in to Bomb Squad.
- Everybody back!
- Back!
- Get back!
- Move, move, move!

Somebody's in here.

It's all right. It's all right.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
- Am I being punked?
- It's okay.
Take a couple of deep breaths.
You do Model UN?
You a student?
Yeah, let me take a wild guess.
Rochester High, and one of
your teachers was Adam Moore?
Damn, you're good.
Okay, where are the cameras?
You're punking me for sure.
There'll be plenty of cameras
from CNN, not MTV.
Your teacher is wanted for murder.
Tell us what happened here.
Oh, my God.
Um, so, a couple of my classmates and I,
we got the week off to attend
this Model UN thing here.
I was walking up when I saw Mr. Moore.
At first, I thought I was tripping,
but then he pulled out this gun,
and I was really tripping.
[HYPERVENTILATING]
Okay, take deep breaths.
Deep breaths. It's okay.
Rico.
What happened next?
He pulled the gun on me
and made me get in the trunk,
and he took all my stuff.
My phone, my keys.
All right, so what did he say?
Did he tell you where he was going?
All he asked is where I parked my car.
I told him right over there.
What kind of car are you driving?
It's a gold Chevy Malibu.
Get the plates.
Put a BOLO out on the Chevy.
Rico, did Mr. Moore know
you'd be here today?
I don't know.
Uh. Maybe.
He doesn't do Model UN,
but he knows I do it.
He's writing my rec letters for college,
so I gave him my résumé.
Okay, you did great.
We're gonna call your parents.
We're gonna get both of them
down here right away.
Thank you.
So Adam knows we're onto him, right?
He needs new wheels, I get that part,
but wouldn't it have been
easier to just carjack a stranger?
He wanted Rico's
Chevy Malibu for a reason.
We need to find out why.

Maybe related to our case.
Gunned down right in front
of his house in Westchester.
An elderly white guy.
This doesn't fit his pattern.
You sure it's Adam?
Neighbors spotted a gold
Chevy Malibu fleeing the scene.
Male driver behind the wheel.
Same as the car Rico told us he drives.
Well, that's not all Adam's been up to.
Check this out.
He has a return flight
booked to Amsterdam on Monday.
Amsterdam?
Why the hell does he want
to go to Amsterdam?
No idea.
School's back in session on Monday.
It's a weird time for a teacher
to take a vacation.
Alert Customs and Border Patrol,
and put a TECS stop on them.
I'm gonna go see Kristin
and Sheryll in Westchester.
Find out more about our latest victim.
Neighbor heard the gunshot.
First she thought that Rico had backed
into one of the pillars out here.
She knows Rico?
He lives here with his dad.
That's why Adam wanted his car.
Apparently, there's a transponder in it
that let him into the gate
without having to ID himself.
What do we know about our victim?
His name is William Hunter,
former senator
during the second Bush administration.
Retired from politics in 2014,
lost his wife to COVID in May of 2020.
Why the hell is Moore
going after a retired senator?
Excuse me.
- Ma'am, hold on.
- I'm looking for Agent Scott.
That'd be me.
Oh, God.
William.
Liv Whitley, DOJ.
I've been out with my family all day,
and I didn't hear about the
shootings until an hour ago.
You knew him?
Everybody in our section does.
I also know Adam Moore.
As soon as I saw
that's who you were chasing,
I called your office,
and they sent me here.
And how do you know Adam?
He came to see me at work two weeks ago.
Weaseled his way past my assistant
with a list of names.
War criminals he wanted us to go after.
What kind of war criminals?
He couldn't really say.
He had no evidence,
just this list of names
and vague allegations
about supposed atrocities
that happened on some island
in Asia decades ago.
Was the island in Thailand?
I don't know. I had never heard of it.
Honestly, I thought he was a crackpot,
and I just wanted
to get him out of my office.
Did he say what he wanted?
He wanted the names on his list referred
to the International Criminal
Court for prosecution.
I told him that wouldn't
be possible since the U.S.
hasn't been a participating
member in the ICC since 2002
because of the Protection Act,
which Senator Hunter wrote.
I can't believe this.
I think I'm getting it now.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Moore thinks these Thai men
are war criminals.
When he finds out
they can't be prosecuted,
he starts taking them out on his own.
And he blames Hunter for
taking the U.S. out of the ICC
and decides to make him pay too.
We need to see that list.
Every name on there
could be a potential target.
It's at my office.
We'll have to go back into the city.
Hmm.
I love a workaholic.

911, I want to report an emergency.
Grant's been my friend for many years.
I was going with him to JFK to, uh,
to say goodbye for the last time.
Last time?
He's gonna a clinic in Amsterdam,
where he'll die by assisted suicide.
It's not legal here
unless you're terminal.
He's just in so much pain.
I understand.
All right, I appreciate that. Thank you.
Was Adam supposed to fly to
Amsterdam next week with him?
Yes, but after hearing
about what Adam's done,
Grant chose to go early.
There's just nothing here
for him anymore.
I got nothing from the driver
except he saw Adam
heading towards the southbound ramp.
Adam went to the DOJ
with a list of Thai men
he claimed were war criminals.
You know anything about that?
The pirates.
After Saigon fell,
many people tried to
escape Vietnam by boat.
The ones who drowned were lucky.
The unlucky ones were attacked
by Thai pirates at sea.
They marooned us on Nam Cha Island.
I was with my family.
We were alive, thanks to Grant.
He was a pilot flying over when
he spotted us on the island.
The world had no idea we were there.
Grant himself organized
many rescue missions by boat.
It was very dangerous, but he came
and saved hundreds of
Vietnamese refugees like me.
We all owe him our lives.
Maybe Adam believed that these pirates
would someday be brought to justice.
And then losing his dad
put a clock on it.
Adam wants his dad to see
justice done while he's still alive.
First he goes to the DOJ
hoping they'll prosecute
the pirates through official channels
like the Nuremberg trials.
Yeah, but they don't, so Adam decides
he's gonna step up and save the day.
Can you pull up those photos again?
Yeah.
Adam ID'd these six men
to the DOJ as these Thai pirates.
He's killed three so far.
Yeah, two of them were brothers
who became Buddhist monks.
That's why Adam attacked the temple.
The third is Arthit Anwar,
killed in Central Park.
Have you seen them before
from Nam Cha Island?
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Do you recognize the other three?
I'm not sure.
But the one face
I do know is one pirate.
He was maybe 20 years old,
but already crueler than the others.
He raped my mother many times.
But what killed her
was a broken heart when
he murdered my baby brother.
That man had a scar across his face.
I see that face every night.

She told this story.
She said, uh, told you how
the sun shined on you all day.
And that warmth inside you, that light,
it would stay with you all night long
so you didn't have to be

My guess is, he's not on the list.
That Adam always planned
to go after him personally.
Well, we came up with a short list,
and we're eliminating any
possible matches as we go.
Two of the hits are already deceased.
Eliminate the men with
trackable employment histories.
They'd have to disclose that
information to immigration.
And I bet you can't put down
pirate as an occupation
without inviting some serious
questions from the DHS.

Lek has fisherman listed
as his occupation in Thailand.
Send it to me now.
Done, and I'm sending you his
address and phone number too.

That's him.
He killed my baby brother.
And the first time
Grant tried to rescue us,
he shot down his plane.
Grant almost died.
Adam's wife told us that Grant
has degenerative lumbar disease.
That could have been
caused in the plane crash.
So Adam holds Lek responsible
for his dad's condition,
for the chronic pain
that's making Grant choose
to end his life by assisted suicide.
Yeah, and maybe he took
his dad to go after Lek.
Witness his murder, eye for an eye.
Vengeance begets vengeance.
Adam's anger is like hot coals.
He wants to throw his rage
at the men who hurt us.

Not always.

I don't know. I had never heard of it.
Honestly, I thought he was a crackpot,
and I just wanted
to get him out of my office.
Did he say what he wanted?
He wanted the names on his list referred
to the International Criminal
Court for prosecution.
I told him that wouldn't
be possible since the U.S.
hasn't been a participating
member in the ICC since 2002
because of the Protection Act,
which Senator Hunter wrote.
I can't believe this.
I think I'm getting it now.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Moore thinks these Thai men
are war criminals.
When he finds out
they can't be prosecuted,
he starts taking them out on his own.
And he blames Hunter for
taking the U.S. out of the ICC
and decides to make him pay too.
We need to see that list.
Every name on there
could be a potential target.
It's at my office.
We'll have to go back into the city.
Hmm.
I love a workaholic.

Hey, shut up and be thankful.

911, I want to report an emergency.
Grant's been my friend for many years.
I was going with him to JFK to, uh,
to say goodbye for the last time.
Last time?
He's gonna a clinic in Amsterdam,
where he'll die by assisted suicide.
It's not legal here
unless you're terminal.
He's just in so much pain.
I understand.
All right, I appreciate that. Thank you.
Was Adam supposed to fly to
Amsterdam next week with him?
Yes, but after hearing
about what Adam's done,
Grant chose to go early.
There's just nothing here
for him anymore.
I got nothing from the driver
except he saw Adam
heading towards the southbound ramp.
Adam went to the DOJ
with a list of Thai men
he claimed were war criminals.
You know anything about that?
The pirates.
After Saigon fell,
many people tried to
escape Vietnam by boat.
The ones who drowned were lucky.
The unlucky ones were attacked
by Thai pirates at sea.
They marooned us on Nam Cha Island.
I was with my family.
We were alive, thanks to Grant.
He was a pilot flying over when
he spotted us on the island.
The world had no idea we were there.
Grant himself organized
many rescue missions by boat.
It was very dangerous, but he came
and saved hundreds of
Vietnamese refugees like me.
We all owe him our lives.
Maybe Adam believed that these pirates
would someday be brought to justice.
And then losing his dad
put a clock on it.
Adam wants his dad to see
justice done while he's still alive.
First he goes to the DOJ
hoping they'll prosecute
the pirates through official channels
like the Nuremberg trials.
Yeah, but they don't, so Adam decides
he's gonna step up and save the day.
Can you pull up those photos again?
Yeah.
Adam ID'd these six men
to the DOJ as these Thai pirates.
He's killed three so far.
Yeah, two of them were brothers
who became Buddhist monks.
That's why Adam attacked the temple.
The third is Arthit Anwar,
killed in Central Park.
Have you seen them before
from Nam Cha Island?
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Do you recognize the other three?
I'm not sure.
But the one face
I do know is one pirate.
He was maybe 20 years old,
but already crueler than the others.
He raped my mother many times.
But what killed her
was a broken heart when
he murdered my baby brother.
That man had a scar across his face.
I see that face every night.
Wait here a minute, Mr. Bui.
You started it.
You decided to go to Amsterdam.

Well, you're gonna hear it anyway.
But then at night, when we
put you to bed, you'd just

Couldn't stop crying.
We didn't know what to do.
We kept the lights on.
We bought you a night light.
I'd sit up with you at night
and try to comfort you,
but nothing worked.
You just cry and cry until
you cried yourself to sleep.
And then, your mom.
She told this story.
She said, uh, told you how
the sun shined on you all day.
And that warmth inside you, that light,
it would stay with you all night long
so you didn't have to be
afraid of the dark anymore.
That seemed to work.

God bless her.
And that's why you didn't
have to be afraid anymore.

always be inside you.

So if this guy was around 20
in the late '70s,
he'd be in his 60s today.
We're running a general search
of Thai men
between the ages of 55 and 65
with distinct facial scarring.
My guess is, he's not on the list.
That Adam always planned
to go after him personally.
Well, we came up with a short list,
and we're eliminating any
possible matches as we go.
Two of the hits are already deceased.
Eliminate the men with
trackable employment histories.
They'd have to disclose that
information to immigration.
And I bet you can't put down
pirate as an occupation
without inviting some serious
questions from the DHS.
Okay, I got a potential match.
Lek Saengarun.
Lek has fisherman listed
as his occupation in Thailand.
Send it to me now.
Done, and I'm sending you his
address and phone number too.
♪
That's him.
He killed my baby brother.
And the first time
Grant tried to rescue us,
he shot down his plane.
Grant almost died.
Adam's wife told us that Grant
has degenerative lumbar disease.
That could have been
caused in the plane crash.
So Adam holds Lek responsible
for his dad's condition,
for the chronic pain
that's making Grant choose
to end his life by assisted suicide.
Yeah, and maybe he took
his dad to go after Lek.
Witness his murder, eye for an eye.
Vengeance begets vengeance.
Adam's anger is like hot coals.
He wants to throw his rage
at the men who hurt us.
But in holding on to that anger,
he only hurts himself the most.
Don't you want these men punished too?
Karma will find a way.
Lek's not answering his phone,
but we talked to his wife.
He's working today in the
restaurant they own in Brooklyn.
She says Thanksgiving is one
