Desperate Measures

1

(clanging nearby)
Dispatch, 727-L-30 at
Studio Self-Storage.
- I have a possible
- (shouting)
(both grunting)
- (gunshot)
- (Jeffery cries out)
Mr. Hudson.
We were able to extract
the bullet from your hip.
The bullet did, however,
enter the groin area.
We salvaged what we could.
We placed a stent in your urethra
to keep the opening patent.
You'll need a Foley catheter
for the next few weeks,
but once the sutures are removed
and the muscles heal,
you should be able to
urinate on your own.
Though it will have to be sitting down.
Well, Nurse Miles here
will check on your dressing.
(siren wailing)
RANSONE: Got to hand it to you,
Sergeant, when your instincts are right,
they are very, very right.
- You got him?
- We got him, Athena.
Jeffery's big adventure is
done. He's going back to lockup.
I know some people who are gonna
be very happy to hear that.
You let them know.
I'll take it from here.
("Paint It Black" by the
Rolling Stones playing)

I can't believe we just did that.
There it is.
- His home address.
- What for?
Jeffery, we should leave.
And then what?
You made me a murderer.
That's what a crappy lawyer you are.
Instead of getting me off for rape,
you're gonna get me hung for murder.
You didn't kill him, I did.
I wasn't talking about him.

This is my mom's room.
- Oh, is it?
- (music playing faintly)
I got turned around just looking
for the little boys' room.
Oh, well, the guest
bathroom's over here.
Show me?
Are you from the neighborhood?
I don't think I recognize you.
I'm a friend of your mom's.
- From work?
- Something like that.
So this house party, when did it start?
Like, um, early.
10:00 a.m., people started popping by.
Do you remember
the last time you saw your son?
Oh, God. Honestly, I'm not sure.
You need to be sure, Michael.
Yeah, but I'm not, Athena.
What the hell were you thinking?
Just letting strangers
just traipse in and out
- of our house like that?
- They're not strangers,
they're neighbors. Your neighbors.
And I probably wouldn't have,
had I known that there was some psycho
with a vendetta out for you
- who had escaped and was out on the loose!
- Michael, Michael,
where were you when the generator died?
The generator did not die. It
was unplugged. David said so.
Somebody probably kicked
that plug out of the wall.
I was tripping on it all day long.
Nobody tripped over any plug.
Jeffery Hudson was in
this house, I know it.
He cut the power and he took our son.
MAYNARD: We don't know
that for sure. Not yet.
Harry's not at any of
the neighbors' houses
- that we checked.
- And nobody we spoke to
remembers seeing him leaving, by himself
or with anyone matching
Hudson's description.
We are wasting time. We need
to get detectives down here.
And, no offense, I appreciate the help,
but my ex-husband's surgeon boyfriend
does not need to be the one
- out here canvassing.
- All right,
I'll see who's available. Excuse me.
(phone ringing, vibrating)
- Hello?
- HARRY: Mom?
- Harry?
- Harry, are you okay?
Yeah, I'm okay.
- Where are you?
- I'm not sure.
What do you mean you're not sure?
(Harry cries out)
- JEFFERY: He means the whole city's dark.
- Jeffery!
You know, I gotta commend you.
Somebody raised this boy right.
He's been very polite.
When I threatened to shoot
everyone in your house,
he did exactly as I asked.
You do not have to do this, Jeffery.
- Don't I?
- No.
I feel like I kinda have to do something.
I don't think my court case
was really going all that well,
to be honest, and, well,
things have escalated.
Things are not nearly as bad
- as you think they are.
- Really?
'Cause they seem pretty bad.
You can escape, Jeffery.
Half the state's in the dark.
Our resources are spread razor-thin.
Nobody even knew you were
missing for four days.
Nobody has to come looking for you now.
If you can make it to the border,
you can just walk into
Mexico and be home free.
- Just that easy?
- Yeah.
Just let my son go, unharmed,
and I promise you I
will not come after you.
I'd like to believe that, but
I just don't think you have it in you
- to give up.
- You're wrong.
When you finally realized that
I never made it back to lockup,
did it occur to you even
once to warn your family?
No, it did not. Because
you weren't thinking about them,
you were thinking about me.
See, you're not a mom who's a cop.
You're a cop who happens
to be a mother. So no,
this ends one way, my way.
You took something from me,
now I'm gonna take something from you.
Hey, hey.
(sirens wailing)
Thought you were headed home.
Josh said you wanted to see me?
Why don't we sit down.
What's wrong?
It's your brother.
- He's missing. Kidnapped.
- What? Who would
Jeffery Hudson.
He's in jail.
Well, he's supposed to be,
but there was some kind of mix-up.
He's been on the loose since
the night the blackout started.
The police just realized
the mistake tonight.
But how did Harry
Hudson showed up at the house.
He took your brother.
I have to go. My parents
They want you here.
What? I should be with them,
helping them find my brother.
I promised your mother
that I would keep you here
and keep you safe.
(sighs)
- I guess she has enough to worry about.
- Yeah.
Just know that we're
doing the best we can.
ATHENA: Yeah, I know. All right.
Well, a BOLO's been issued,
- and an Amber Alert.
- That's it?
Nobody's taking this lightly, Michael.
Elaine's pulling what resources she can.
So, but-but where does that leave us?
Elaine wants me to wait here.
And hopefully Jeffery won't be able
to resist taunting me,
and he'll call again.
That's not much of a plan.
It's all we got.
How about I radio the
station and let 'em know
- I'm not coming in tonight?
- No.
Go back to work.
I mean, this city can use all the heroes
it can get right now.
Okay. I'm a phone call away.
- Love you.
- Love you, too.
- Hey, Bobby. Can you do me a favor?
- Yeah.
Can you drop off David
at my place on your way?
Sure.
- Hey, I am so sorry this has happened.
- Yeah.
Yeah, me, too.
Okay
what's the plan?
- I just told you the plan.
- Athena,
now I was married to you for 17 years.
And there is no way in hell
that you are gonna sit here
and wait for that phone to ring.
So whatever the next step
is, I'm taking it with you.
This is our son. And damn it,
you are not leaving me behind this time.
All right.
So what are you thinking?
Well, we know he's using
Ransone's car, his gun,
and his badge.
So it makes me wonder
what else of Ransone's
has he been using?
(brakes screech)
(door opens, closes)
Damn it.
Okay, Harry
Come on now, buddy. You
don't want to do this.
You know I can't leave
you out here alone.
It's just not safe.
I'm not fooling around, kid.
I don't have time for this.
I'm gonna give you to the count of five
to show yourself.
Then I'm gonna go back and put a bullet
in everyone you love.
One.
Two.
Three! Knock it off.
- Help!
- Get in the car.
- Just get in the car.
- Help!
Hey, what are you doing?
It's okay, ma'am, I'm a police officer.
This kid's in my custody.
- Caught him breaking into the building.
- He's lying!
Taking advantage of
the blackout, no doubt.
- Help, please. He's gonna kill me.
- Hey, hey!
- Stop resisting.
- He's not a cop. Please.
If you have a phone, record us.
My parents need to know
what happened to me.
You said you're a cop.
Where's your badge? Show it to me.
You can't be serious.
You want to see my badge?
Here it is? See?
Okay? I told you, I'm a cop.
It's nothing to worry about, okay?
You and your pooch have
a great night, okay?
DISPATCHER: 911. What's your emergency?
CALLER: My friend got
shot. We're in the PPZ.
- The what?
- The Autonomous Cop-Free Zone.
On Santa Monica and Vermont.
Dispatch says there's a
Gold Line Metro station
in the middle of this thing.
- Can't we use that to sneak in?
- I don't sneak.
WOMAN: I don't know who called you guys.
No official passes these barricades.
- We don't need you!
- MAN: Get out of here!
- We have volunteers to take care of that.
- But they're not.
Someone in your camp called 911.
- That's who we are. We are 911.
- (siren wails)
You've got a man in there bleeding out.
You have your rules, and we have ours.
- Why is everyone just standing there?
- BUCK: They won't let us in.
This wannabe mayor is blocking the way
- 'cause of some stupid rule.
- MAN: Get the hell out of here!
Really? Since when do
anarchists have rules?
- WOMAN: Get out!
- Adapt or die.
There's no rules here.
MAN: What are you doing?
(excited chatter)
You're not supposed to be here.
I'm not supposed to
crack your skull open
with this either.
Where is the injured guy?
- Help. Over here!
- All right, clear a path.
Gunshot wound. Looks like
a through-and-through.
Brachial artery looks
to be intact. Chim?
- Got it.
- All right, I'll call it in.
Take some breaths.
(groaning)
BUCK: So, that was awesome, Cap.
Just not having it tonight, huh?
Everything okay?
Harry's been kidnapped.
- What's the paint for?
- Never mind.
You can't get away, you know.
I know.
Mean old Mommy's gonna
come after me, right?
No, actually I was
thinking about my dad.
He's gonna beat your ass.
Enough of this crap.
Hands.
Hands, damn it!
(muffled cry)
So our boy was really charging neighbors
five dollars a head?
I hope you told him to give it back.
Yes.
It was enterprising.
God, what if we don't find him?
What if we get to Lou's
apartment and there's nothing?
We don't know what we're
gonna find, Michael.
You told Maynard that we're
not waiting for them, right?
Yeah. She said she'd send
whoever she could, but no,
I'm not waiting for backup.
I just don't understand it.
I mean, why does this
guy hate you so much?
I mean, he could really
be in Mexico right now.
Why is he still coming after you?
I shot off his junk.
I'm sorry, you did what, now?
His magic wand. I shot it off.
- No, you did not.
- I did.
(laughing)
- Well, that would do it. Okay.
- It's not funny, Michael.
The hell it's not. I mean,
considering what you arrested him for?
I mean, it's poetic.
He was using it as a weapon.
You disarmed the man.
"Hands in the air! Drop it!"
(both laugh)
I didn't do it on purpose.
But I will say I am not sorry.
All right, we're here.
All right, I guess, uh, this is the part
where you tell me that you're the cop,
and I'm the architect, and I
can't come in there with you.
I wouldn't dare. But I go first.
All right.
Clear.
Bedroom clear.
Is anyone even staying here?
Oh, yeah.
He was here, and he wants me to know it.
Is that a message?
If the middle finger's
a message, oh, yeah.
It's a message.
Okay, well, then what else is here?
You know, maybe that's not the
only message he left behind.
Maybe there's something else.
You know, a clue to where he took Harry.
Michael, don't touch anything!
What?!
This is a crime scene.
We gotta let 'em go over it.
- We said we wouldn't wait for them.
- We didn't.
But now we gotta let 'em
bring in their fine-tooth combs
and do their jobs.
This entire room is
filled with evidence.
That could lead us to our son.
- Michael. Michael!
- What?!
Do you just want me to stand here
and not do anything?
Is that what you're saying to me?
How in the hell am I
supposed to do that, Athena?
- He took our son and he's gone!
- Michael, hey. Hey, hey, hey!
Look at me. We're gonna find him.
We're not done. Not yet.
(crying): I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
(phone ringing)
It's May.
Okay. Okay, okay, okay.
ATHENA: May?
Mom, I found Harry.
- Help. Help!
- Get in the car.
MAYNARD: She got it from social media?
MICHAEL: Yeah. Ever
since we had our run-in
with your Officer of the Year Reynolds,
May gets alerts for
videos of cops acting out.
MAYNARD: Well, I never
thought I would say this,
but thank God for nosy Karens
and their Twitter accounts.
Well, our Karen is a Judy,
and she lives in Santa Clarita.
- May DM'd her.
- Got it. Keep me posted.
Detectives are processing
Lou's apartment now.
- We'll let you know what they find.
- Only a matter of time.
(muffled cry)
Come on. Come on, kid. Come on.
- Get in there.
- (muffled shouts)
Get in there!
(muffled shouting continues)
Look, you can scream all you want, kid.
There's no one around to hear.
Listen to me. Hey.
Look. I want you to know
none of this is your fault. Okay?
It's not mine either. It's hers.
Your mother can save you,
or she can come after me.
But she can't do both.
(muffled cries)
- Help. Help!
- Get in the car.
- Hey, what are you doing?
- HARRY: He's not a cop.
He's gonna kill me.
- You said this happened three hours ago?
- Yeah.
It took me a really long
time to upload the video.
My connection kept dropping
out. I almost gave up.
Thank you for doing this.
You know, just to see his face,
and to know that he's still fighting
and that he's still alive
Now, tell me, what did
you see before the video?
I mean, was he hurting Harry?
They were struggling. The guy was trying
to get him back into the car.
I knew that something was wrong,
but then he showed me his badge.
And you pulled out your phone.
That was your son's idea.
- He's a really smart kid.
- Yeah. (chuckles)
- You guys did a great job.
- Thank you.
You hear that, babe?
(engine starts, car departs)
Is that your wife?
Ex-wife.
- (horn blaring)
- Okay, I'm on the freeway.
- Where am I going?
- JEFFERY: Hey, slow down.
We're gonna get to that in a minute.
First, the ground rules.
Come alone, no backup.
I get it, don't worry.
Oh, I'm not worried, but you should be.
Because where we're going,
there are no police allowed.
The autonomous zone?
I'll see you here, Sergeant Grant.

What's he doing? He still hasn't moved.
Leave it alone, Buck.
Nobody's going in there.
EDDIE: I can't imagine what
Cap's going through right now.
If it was Christopher,
I'd be losing my mind.
Why Harry? Thought this guy's thing
was attacking women.
Pretty sure that's exactly
what he's doing, Buck.
(quietly): Hail Mary, full of
grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women.
Blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
- Hail Mary
- (phone ringing, vibrating)
Michael.
MICHAEL: Bobby, we've got an emergency.
- (alarm ringing)
- (sirens wailing)
(indistinct chatter)
- (sighs)
- Nice night for a walk.
You lost?
I believe I'm home.
They said this is the
People's Protection Zone?
Well, I'm people.
And you need protection?
Actually, I do.
- From who?
- An animal
with a badge.
You're in the right place.
What's this pig look like?
JEFFERY: See? I'm a cop.
- Maybe you can share this with your people?
- Okay?
Here it is.
- (indistinct chatter)
- (phone ringing)
I'm here, alone. Just like I said.
- Where's my son?
- JEFFERY: Don't you worry about that
right now.
You may have brought me down
here to put a bullet in me,
but I'm not gonna give you that chance.
Not till you tell me where my son is.
Hey, you are not the one
calling the shots here,
Sergeant Grant, I am.
ATHENA: So what, you gonna
pick me off from the shadows?
Is that your plan, Jeffery?
What about all these innocent civilians?
- (phones chiming)
- Innocent?
Really? They've commandeered
eight city blocks.
They're hardly innocent.
They're thieves.
Well, whatever they are,
I don't think they'll take too kindly
to a dirty cop killing someone
in the middle of their
People's Paradise.
You got yourself an
exit strategy worked out?
Oh, I've got everything worked out.
- Yeah, I bet you do.
- And when you say "dirty cop,"
are you referring to me or to you?
ATHENA: I'm not dirty.
JEFFERY: And I'm not a cop.
ATHENA: Really? 'Cause
that's not what I hear
you been telling folk.
JEFFERY (on video): See? I'm a cop.
There he is.
That guy's a cop!
That's him, right there!
- (overlapping shouting)
- That guy's a cop!
(shouting continues)
Thank you for your help.
Keep everyone up here.
What are you gonna do?
- I'm going after him.
- Are you crazy? That guy's a cop.
- They're all animals.
- I beg to differ.

(water dripping)
(rats squeaking)
(clattering nearby)
Jeffery, this doesn't have to end badly.
You show yourself now and prove to me
that my son is safe,
and my offer still holds.
I'll let you walk out of here.
You don't believe me?
Lou Ransone told me that
it wasn't you who attacked him.
He said it was Lila Risco.
You hear me, Jeffery?
Detective Ransone isn't dead.
He survived. But you
didn't know that, did you?
Otherwise you wouldn't have
been squatting in his apartment.
And as for the lady lawyer,
well, I figure, after seeing
what she was capable of,
that was just self-defense.
I know things seem dark right now
and hopeless, but they're not hopeless.
And they're most definitely not dark!
Drop the gun, Jeffery.
(chuckling): Wow.
You lured me down here.
No, bitch, I chased you down here.
Now drop it, and tell
me where my boy's at.
- How'd you even manage to pull this off?
- Easy.
I got no end of backup.
ATHENA: You think you got
me alone that night? No, sir.
When you came at me, you came
at everyone who loves me.
You didn't stand a chance.
And you got lucky that night.
If you hadn't picked up that gun,
you'd be dead already!
And you'd still be peeing standing up.
Now drop it!
Don't make me shoot you again.
No?
That your firefighter husband?
Damn it!
(coughing)
- It wasn't loaded.
- What?
Where's Harry?
Tell me where he is!
Keep him alive. Keep him alive!
He's not breathing.
Where is he? Where is he?!
Where is he?! Where is he?!
Tell me where he is!
I got no pulse.
(sirens wailing)
ATHENA: Jeffery Hudson was an evil
man, but he wasn't a stupid one.
He knew that this
could only end one way.
He made sure it happened on his terms.
He knew exactly what he was doing,
what he was making me do.
He was our last lead to finding Harry,
and I-I played right into his hands.
You sent that man where he
belongs; straight to hell.
- It
- No, listen.
That guy has no more moves.
It's up to us to find
our son, and he's alive.
We have to believe that.
So this is everything
we found on his body?
MAYNARD: And from Ransone's car, yes.
- What do these keys belong to?
- No idea.
ATHENA: The answer is in
those four days before we knew
Hudson was missing. I think
he was planning something.
Is there any way we can trace
the movements of this phone?
It's a burner.
All right.
All right, so we know the video of Harry
was made in Santa Clarita.
What was he doing there?
Where was he going?
MAYNARD: There was a report
that the real estate office
that Hudson worked out of was
broken into a few days ago.
But several of the businesses out there
- were also hit by looters.
- You think looters
would hit a real estate office?
Did they happen to
report any keys missing?
We need to find out if
that real estate office
has any listings in or
around Santa Clarita.
MAY: Not Santa Clarita.
Next door. Valencia.
A housing development his
company was refurbishing.
They never finished the project.
It shut down because of the pandemic.
It's been sitting empty ever since.
Thanks, baby.
Valencia. Bring those damn keys.
- (line ringing)
- Who you calling?
Reinforcements.
- I'll send units.
- You do that.
(sirens wailing)
Hey, I-I have keys.
We don't need keys.
(horn blaring)
(tires screeching)
All right. I want every
one of these houses checked.
Every room. Every closet,
crawl space, basement.
Every inch. Let's go!
Harry!
- Harry!
- Harry?
- Eddie
- Yeah?
Harry!
- Harry.
- Harry?
Come on, Harry. You up here?
- Harry!
- Harry!
- Harry?
- Harry?
Harry!
- Harry!
- Harry!
BOBBY: Harry?
Harry!
Cap. Nothing upstairs,
nothing in the crawl spaces.
The other houses are clear, too.
We can pull the FLIR tech. Or maybe
- we can get some dogs out here.
- Yeah, maybe.
Yeah, or maybe this is a
goose chase, and he's buried
- out there somewhere.
- Michael!
Hey, I found this out back.
I don't know if it means anything.
BOBBY: Check for wet paint, guys.
Wet paint.
- Eddie.
- On it.
Wait, wait, wait! Harry!
- Harry!
- BOBBY: All right, guys.
- Get a gurney in here!
- Athena,
we got him! Hey, give
me a knife or something!
Oh, come on.
- We got him, we got him, baby.
- Come on! Come on!
- Come on.
- I got him, I got him.
Okay, take it easy.
- We got you. We got you.
- Is he okay?
- (excited, overlapping chatter)
- CHIMNEY: Pulse is weak.
- Get him out of here!
- Get him out, get him out.
We got you. We're gonna
take care of you, okay?
- Make a hole! Make a hole!
- BOBBY: You okay?
- (Athena whimpers)
- Okay.

(siren wailing)
(helicopter blades whirring)
(sirens wailing)
Okay, vitals are good.
Everything seems good.
Mommy, did you get him?
Yeah, I got him, baby.
And now we got you, too.
Everything's okay now.
Everything's just fine.

- (clacking, whirring)
- Do you hear that?
Oh AC! How I missed you.
The power's on, and
not a moment too soon.
My leg was really not up for
taking those stairs again.
(phone vibrating)
Everything okay?
- It's from my brother.
- Oh
- Oh, honey.
- Good.
REPORTER: Violence and
further property damage
continue to ravage the
area that has been called
an autonomous zone
(line ringing)
(recorded): Hey, it's
Chimney. Talk later.
Hi. Uh, I know that you're working,
but something
You know what, never mind.
We're good here.
I just wanted to make
sure you're okay, too.
Love you.
(Jee-Yun cries)
Well, look at all of
this glorious electricity.
Guess the power czar is out of business.
I gladly hand my power
back to the power company.
Good, 'cause my phone is
dead. You did a horrible job.
How's Harry doing?
As good as can be after
being abducted by a lunatic
and sealed in a wall to die.
Did Cap not come back with you?
He's still at the hospital with Athena.
Uh, so who's in charge
till he gets back?
I am.
He did not say that.
Not in words.
You didn't catch that manly glance
of unspoken confidence he
flashed me before we left?
I did not.
He said that if he wasn't
back by end of shift,
that he would close
it out in the morning.
Would you guys say this
is the longest shift
we've ever worked?
It definitely rates.
(elevator chimes)
Harry's okay?
Oh, he's he's safe.
- How are you?
- Ask me tomorrow. (chuckles)
It is tomorrow.
Then I'm good.
- You're finally coming home?
- Yes.
And I cannot wait to see you.
Ah. Thought you'd be the
first one out the door.
Christopher know you're coming?
Not yet.
I haven't figured out what
I'm gonna say when I get home.
To Ana.

(sighs)
(grunts, sighs)
TAYLOR: since the five-day
citywide blackout has ended.
Thankfully, the power grid has
returned to normal function.
Utilities and essential technologies
- have followed suit.
- Hi, honey.
I'm home.
The hacker group initially
claiming responsibility,
and demanding a hefty
ransom, has gone off-line,
virtually scrubbing their
existence from the Internet,
leaving no trace
Are you sure you don't
want to go to bed, man?
I know you're exhausted.
I'm not tired.
TAYLOR: a very trying
week. Many questions remain
Now, you know you can talk to me, right?
There's nothing to talk about. I'm fine.
TAYLOR: But now that the power
has at least been restored,
Angelinos can begin to put
their lives back together,
piece by piece.
Okay, I think that is everything.
You ready to go see your daddy?
Yeah, I think he's gonna
be happy to see you, too.
Mmm. You know, I thought that
I would hate canned fruit,
but it's not bad.
A little lime, some
chili. Who'd have thought?
Yes!
It is all good.
Great, actually.
You didn't have to
cook all this, though.
- Let's make brownies next.
- (laughs)
You know, I think we need
to clean that kitchen first.
Maybe you should go home first.
I mean, you've been stuck here for days.
I'm sure you want to get
back to your own place.
Have some time for yourself.
Right. Yeah.
But I am not going to leave you
with the disaster in the kitchen.
(clears throat)
A disaster. (laughs)
I'm sorry. I know this
place is such a wreck.
Don't worry about it.
Yeah, but you've been working nonstop,
so, you shouldn't have to
come home to this mess
Oh, I-I bet the dishwasher
is working now, right?
You know what, I don't
know what I miss more,
whether it's the dishwasher
or the refrigerator.
- Ana
- Or the air conditioning.
It's probably the-the air
conditioning, definitely.
Ana. Ana, stop.
We need to talk.
Those four words.
Maybe we should sit down.
Why?
You're fine.
You're not gonna pass
out or anything, right?
Your heart rate is not going up?
What do you mean?
You know what I mean.
I don't want you to to
panic when you think about me.
Or when you think
about a future with me.
I can't I can't take that.
I thought it would work.
I did. The idea of us.
Chris loves you so much.
I just thought
That eventually you would, too?
- I should have said something sooner.
- Yeah.
You probably should have.
Well, I'm
sorry about the mess,
but I guess it's it's your mess now.
- Right?
- Yeah, I guess it is.
You're
You're an amazing father.
I'm gonna
I'm gonna go say goodbye to him.
Adios.
(speaks Spanish)
(chuckles) Hey, Christopher.
Oh
Is it ironic that all I want to do
is close the blackout
curtains and go to sleep?
Maddie.
- Maddie?
- (phone vibrating)
Hey, what's up, Cap?
Ravi, what are you still doing here?
I was waiting for Cap to get back.
Yeah, he just called me in. Where is he?
Upstairs.
Hey, Cap, what's going on?
- What couldn't you tell me over the
- (Jee-Yun fussing)
Jee-Yun. What's my daughter doing here?
When I came back to wrap
the shift, she was here.
- Maddie was here?
- Not Maddie.
The baby.
Her mother dropped her off.
What, with you?
I was the only one here.
I don't understand. Where's Maddie?
She's not here, Chim.
She asked me to give you this.
Hi.
I'm sure that you are confused,
hurt, and, uh
probably really scared.
I don't know what to say.
You don't need to go to the police
or come looking for me.
I'm not in any danger,
and no one is making me do this.
But Jee is not safe with me.
Not now, and maybe
I know that you're gonna
take really good care of her.
And she's better off without me.
I love you.
I love both of you.
And I'm really sorry.
