At least the popcorn was good.
Coach Kelly should've called a time-out
after Coolidge missed that free throw.
Coach Kelly. Remember his last year,
when he lost his pen during gym class?
He made us walk up and down
the football field
for half an hour, trying to find it.
And the whole time,
it was behind his ear.
[LAUGHS] You guys wanna come over?
I have gummies.
I told my mom I'd help her make dinner.
I'll drop you off.
I got a bio test first period, so.
Cool, cool. See you tomorrow.

Kai's been doing a lot of weed.

- Yep.
Ever since the dispensary opened.
His dad thinks it's safer

[SCOFFS]
Hey.
We should stop and help him, right?
Uh, yeah, I guess.
Hi, Ma? I might be a little late.
We're helping a man with car troubles.
No, don't worry.
He's, like, a minister or something.
Ah, thank you for stopping.
Yeah, no worries. What's going on?
Uh, I just seem
to be stuck in the ditch here.
Can't seem to get back on the road here.
Um, okay.
Well, we can try to give you a push.
Oh, that would be great.
Oh, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
Oh.
Hey, would you mind giving us a hand?
Sure. I'd be happy to.
- Thanks.

Thanks so much.
Yeah, thank you.

No, please! Please!
I've been diagnosed
with stage III liver cancer.
Lost 20 pounds so far.
Feel so weak,
I can hardly get out of bed.
And my stomach?
Well, it just hurts all the time.
I'm suffering with this,
suffering bad.
So please, I pray
that you'll let me go home
so I can spend my last time
on this Earth
as a free man.
Mr. Davis, if we grant this request,
can we trust you won't resort
to criminal activity again?
I'm too damn sick to break any laws.
And just so you know,
I didn't kill that young man,
same as I told everybody 25 years ago.
I understand we have
a member of the victim's family
who wishes to speak.
Sir, please state your name
for the record
and your relationship to the victim.
I'm Remy Scott,
the older brother of Mr. Davis' victim,
Michael Scott.
Thank you.
You may proceed.

My brother was

intelligent, funny, kind,
not to mention a world-class pitcher.
His murder devastated me
and my sister, Claire.
Our parents were never the same
after he came home from spring break
in a casket.
Mikey was the reason
I became an FBI agent.
I'm now the head
of the Fugitive Task Force,
so I have some insight
into this man who asks for compassion
but still won't admit
what he did 25 years ago,
when he stabbed my little brother.
So why should he get mercy now,
when he showed none for my brother,
when he doesn't have
an ounce of compassion,
when he doesn't have an ounce of remorse
for what he did
and still has the audacity to deny it?
Keep this killer in a cage,
where he belongs.
Let justice be served.

[INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER]
You all right? You look exhausted.
Took a redeye last night.
I was down in Florida, testifying
at a hearing, for my brother's case.
What kind of hearing?
The guy who killed him has cancer,
wants to get out of prison early.
I'm so sorry.
It's been what, 25 years?
Yeah.
So what did they decide?
We should hear in the next 48 hours.
What do we got?
Chloe LeBlanc, Luke Spottiswood,
sophomores at the local high school,
last seen leaving the school parking lot
in Luke's car after a basketball game
yesterday afternoon.
You sure this was an abduction?
Teenagers can be
pretty unpredictable sometimes.
No, not these two.
I go birding with Luke's dad, Steven.
These are good kids.
I found their cell phones on the ground.
They look like they were
run over by a vehicle.
And these were in the car too.
There's nothing
but schoolbooks and papers.
Dust those phones for prints.
Backpacks too.

- We'll also need photos
of these tire tracks
and any other evidence

What are you talking about?
How can our son
just disappear like that?
Somebody must have seen something.
And if they did, we'll find them.
Were either of your kids
involved in anything
that might have precipitated this?
Like what?
You're blaming Chloe for this?
- No.
- No, but we need to know
everything you can tell us.
The important thing is to remain calm.
Pfft, sure. How do we do that?
What do they want from us, money?
Well, no one contacted you, right?
We'll post agents on each
of your houses, just in case.
When's the last time
you spoke with your daughter?
Chloe called me after the game was over
and said they had stopped
to help a minister
with car trouble.
A minister? Okay, that's good.
Did she say anything else?
Just that she was with Luke
and she'd be late.
When do you think we'll hear something?
If there are any developments,
we'll let you know, I promise.
I can't just sit here and wait.
I'm gonna drive around
and look for them myself.
We prefer that you didn't do that.
I understand what you're going through.

We interviewed
dozens of parents and students
that were leaving the basketball game
at the same time as Chloe and Luke.
None of them noticed
anything out of the ordinary.
But one of Luke's friends remembered
that after the last home game,
he saw a panel van following Luke's car
out of the school parking lot.
There were no vans
in the parking lot yesterday
on the security video.
I'm gonna start grinding
through the other 90 vehicles now.
Do we have any security footage
from the last game, the one
where Luke's friend
said he was followed?
Uh, we should.
Okay, yeah.
This is from a week
before the Coolidge game.
There's a maroon van.
There's an emblem on the door.
Looks like a religious symbol.
The minister they stopped to help.
Mm.
The van is registered
to the Sacred Church of the Revelations,
Dorchester, New Hampshire.

Dorchester's

Pastor Jacob's not here today.
Where is he?
He'll be back from a funeral tomorrow.
Who died?

You mind if we take
a look inside the church?
Make it quick.
I'm about to clean up in there.
Thank you.
Doesn't exactly fill you
with the Holy Spirit in here, does it?
You ever been in a church with
an image of the devil on its walls?
I guess it makes sense.
Good in the front of the church,
evil in the back?
It's giving me the same vibe
like in one of those voodoo places
in the French Quarter.
It's creepy.

has a little brother.
Yeah.
No mom in the picture.

no sign of any violence

Eh, they found ligature marks
around the wrist.
They also said there's a pinhole tear
in the shoulder of her jacket,
and a drop of liquid residue.
There's some dry blood
around the injection site.
Could've been a hot shot.
Oh, with fake doctor brothers involved,
that would make sense.
State M.E. will sort it out for us.
Why grab these two kids
just to kill one of them?
There's gotta be something else
going on here.
You're right.
Deep dive, Rudolph Varitek.
I'm gonna run a game on Pastor Jacob
and make sure we're going
down the right track.
- What's the play?
- Win his trust, size him up.
If he's good for this,
something will slip.
You don't need
to go undercover for that.
We can just reach out
to the congregation.
We don't have time for all that.
It's a close-knit community up here.
Not a lot of love for federal agents.
I'll need a crappy car, a Bible,

No more miscalculations, Rudolph.
We have a lot to accomplish.
Good Friday is just around the corner.
I'll have the crosses painted

Fine.
We'll have to acquire another she-devil.
Maybe I could just focus on the boy.
Do we really need another female?
Eve did the serpent's bidding

so evil must be vanquished
in all its incarnations.
Yes.
Maybe I can find another girl
after the funeral.
We'll take him to the OR.
Wait for me there.
♪
Rudolph Varitek.
One of the most macabre cases
I've ever prosecuted.
Because he was holding
himself out as a medical doctor?
A doctor who'd perform
the kind of elective procedures
you can't get
at your corner urgent care.
You ever heard
of extreme body modification?
I'm vaguely familiar, yeah.
It's more than just stretched earlobes.
Eye tattoos, tunneled cheeks
subdermal implants:
Varitek did it all.
But if you wanna disfigure yourself,
isn't that legal?
He didn't stop at cosmetics.
Varitek sees himself
as an actual physician.
After he flunked out of medical school,
he took up do-it-yourself surgery
on his shingle on the dark web.
He must be resentful
the medical establishment
wouldn't have him.
Definitely.
He wasn't even on our radar
until he performed an amateur version
of gender reassignment surgery.
The victim ended up in the ER
and almost died.
Varitek did six months
for practicing medicine
without a medical license
and moved out of New Hampshire.
How do we, as a community of believers,
make peace
with a senseless tragedy
like the brutal death
of this sweet, innocent child?
I, too, have recently lost a loved one
to sinister machinations.
Be assured, my good friends,
these are no random misfortunes,
for the Lamb would never allow
such heinous brutality
to befall the righteous,
like the family that sits here
in mourning today.
No, this can only be understood
as the demonic work of the Antichrist,
who took this poor soul
as a demonstration
of his dark, malevolent power!
God bless you.
Very moving eulogy, Pastor.
Thank you.
Have you also come
at the family's calling?
When I heard what happened, I
thought I'd come and pay my respects.
Where do you minister?
My last posting was in Ohio, but
things didn't go so well for me there.
How so?
I'd rather not talk about it,
if it's all the same to you.
I see.
These are trying times we live in,
when men of God are themselves
treated with suspicion.
God bless you for understanding.
Of course.
People can be so vindictive.
Your church in Dorchester
I was hoping
there might be an opportunity
there for me.
Unfortunately, there's not.
We're a small and aging congregation.
As I'm sure you're aware,
our youth have drifted away
from the church.
Jesus said, "Suffer the little children,
and forbid them not to come unto me."
Easier said than done.
They worship technology now.
Very true.
How do we bring them back?
Show them that the work
of the devil is everywhere.
Satan's cleverest trick is to
convince us he doesn't exist.
We need to make evil tangible
to all the doubters among us,
simplify it in a way their
narrow minds can understand.
So true.
Evil is everywhere.
Like those two high school students
who were kidnapped
across the state line.
I'm not aware of such an incident,
but I'm not one
to follow current events.
You must excuse me now.
I pray that you find peace
and a beneficent situation.

where to find the pastor.
Right.
Have you seen his brother, Rudolph?
- Lives in Vermont.
- I'm aware.
But when was the last time
Rudolph was here?
Hard to say.
What's M-I-C?
McKerry Industrial Chemicals.
Worked there for 39 years.
Hazardous chemicals.
Must've been a tough job.
Damn right, it was.
That's how I know the Variteks.
Jacob gave me some work
around the church after I retired.
He worked with you?
His father did, Douglas,
till he got sick and went on disability
a few years before the plant closed.
Ah, he had, uh, Behcet's disease.
All I know is, the doctors up here
couldn't do much for him.
Took its toll on the brothers,
seeing their father suffer
and waste away like that.
It drove Jacob to a dark place
with his ministry.
He could only understand
his father's torture
as something that was evil.
So there's an abandoned
chemical plant 'round here?
They turned the place inside out.
Nothing but rusty pipes
and empty storage tanks.
They have to be hiding
somewhere in there.
Pull everybody out
and search it all over again.
It's a lot of manpower to tie up.
They have something better to do?
Or maybe tunnels we don't know about,
underground tanks? Who the hell knows?
Okay, I'll let them know.
What is that thing?
- I don't know.
- Let's check it.

This is terrifying.
To inflict this level of deformity
on another human being
it's a long way from religion.
Their father's death
must've really screwed them up.
Maybe the only thing
they could blame for his death
was the Antichrist.
So what's their endgame?
Just turn Luke into a freak?

- Parade him around on Sundays
like some sort of proof of concept?
Ray.
Jacob's leaving the church.
He just got in his van.
Looks like he's heading north
on Route 117.
Okay, he might be on his way
to Rudolph and Luke.
We found their hideout.
Looks like they left in a hurry.
Hana, is there any chance
that Rudolph and Luke
could've slipped in the church
while Jacob led us
all over New Hampshire?
Uh, there's a road that goes
around the back of the ridge.
It'd be about a ten-minute hike
through the woods.
Ray, get in that church.
- What about Jacob?
- We'll intercept him.
Just get in that church
and tear it apart.
But the church is probably locked.
Then kick the damn door down!

Hey, Georgie.
Who?
Yeah, send her up.
Agent Scott.
I'm Serena Wade.
I saw you at the Larry Davis hearing
- in Florida.
- I remember.
Are you his family?
No, I'm a documentary filmmaker.
I actually live here in New York.
Do you mind if we talk for a minute?
Won't take long.
I wanted to give you a heads-up.
Did you hear
about the rule 3.850 filing?
- The what?
- It's a motion
for post-conviction relief.
It was filed in Broward County yesterday
on Larry Davis' behalf.
They're asking for a new trial?
Yes.
Based on what?
Actual innocence.
He claimed the prosecutor
withheld exculpatory evidence
among other things.
Are his lawyers getting paid
by the word?
They're not getting paid at all.
They're from
the Florida Innocence Project.
Well, they're wasting their time.
The case against Davis was airtight.
You remember the state attorney
who prosecuted the case?
- Brody Birch?
- What about him?
I started looking into him after
several complaints were filed
to the state bar last year.
A white prosecutor who targeted
mostly African American defendants.
At first, I thought this was
a story about race,
but the deeper that I dug,
the more I realized
this is pure corruption.
Brady violations, witness tampering
I mean, who knows
how many innocent people
this guy has put behind bars?
What does this have to do with me?
I wanna make Davis' appeal
the center of my film,
follow it from beginning to end,
and I'd like for you to get involved.
I need someone who can humanize
the victim
and speak on his behalf.
I don't give a damn about your film
or what you need.
Well, I'm not taking sides here.
I don't know how this is gonna end
or where this is gonna go.
I just think that this is
a compelling story.
How nice for you.
You said at the hearing,
"Let justice be served."
- What if he didn't do it?
- But he did do it.
And he's not getting out.
That's your story.
And you should leave.
I didn't mean to offend you.
