Get out!

Get out of my room!

I just wanted to know

how Annie's doing.

You know I can't discuss her

treatment with you, Mr. Cameron.

I'm sorry, but this still

doesn't make sense to me.

She's my daughter.

A minor.

If she needed

an appendectomy

you'd need my signature

for surgery, right?

Therapy is different.

Yeah, but this whole--

None of this makes

sense to me.

And I'm really

starting to--

What's going on?

I cannot stop

thinking about it.

I'm driving my car

whatever, in the office,

in a meeting

and I think about him

on top of her.

The other night I had this dream.

I'd got him.

I was beating

the life out of him.

I was on top of him

and I was punching him

and punching him

and his face was caving in

there was blood

going everywhere

and I could actually

taste it.

I woke up, I found I'd actually

chewed the inside of my mouth.

It's my own blood

I was tasting.

What if they did catch him and they put him in jail him.

How would that make you feel?

Good. Relieved.

Angry.

Why angry?

Because I'd still

want to rip

his f***ing head off

and now I couldn't.

What else are you

angry about?

I'm angry I didn't know

what was going on.

I'm angry that Annie

lied to me.

That I didn't know the extent

of her intimacy with him.

That I couldn't--

What?

Stop it?

We can't control what happens

to us or our loved ones.

What happens when Annie

goes to college?

What are you saying?

People get hurt.

There's only

so much we can do

to protect ourselves,

our children.

The only thing

we can do

is we can be there

for each other

when we do fall down,

to pick each other up.

Ugh!

Can I help you with

anything today, sir?

Hey, Pop!

Hey.

You look older.

It's only been

six weeks, smart ass.

Yeah, still,

maybe it's, uh

like Einstein's

special relativity.

You know, six weeks to me,

five years to you.

I think I preferred you

with a high school education.

Dude. No way.

I don't want you to hurt yourself.

So how was

the ride in?

Okay.

Okay. I'm still

a little, ech.

Oh. Big night, eh?

I was off my face,

wasn't I?

Come here.

Jesus, Pop. What is it?

Where are the kids?

Come on, kids.

Hurry up, the food 's gonna be cold.

All right, ready?

Hey!

it's fantastic.

Look at the

toilet seat cover.

It was her idea.

Let me help you off with your

flippers so you can eat.

No, Mom, that's cheating.

That's not a very

scary mask, Pete.

It is to Grandpa.

Don't get

me started.

He's a socialist.

Oh, Cal, now come on.

No costume, Annie?

This is my costume.

You're not supposed

to wear a penguin

you're supposed

to be a penguin.

Do you want me

to come or not?

Okay. I guess

you can come.

I'm sorry I

didn't get to email much.

You know, things

have been really crazy.

It's no big deal.

No. No, I should have called more.

Checked in a bit.

You know I love you, right?

Right?

Did you

kids ever hear the story

about when Grandpa and

I met on Halloween?

He asked me to take

a picture of him

next to this statue

of a werewolf

They've all heard

the story, Susan.

No, no, we haven 't.

Okay, good.

So, he goes up

and he stands

right under it

trying to impress me,

of course.

But it turns out it's just a

guy in a costume, right, hon?

And he grabs Grandpa.

And Grandpa starts

screamin ' like a girl.

- I did not.

- You did.

Annie, honey.

Is that corn cold?

Because I could heat it

up for you, sweetie.

Mm. it's fine.

Annie, you have to try the sweet potatoes.

They are amazing.

Oh, they are, sweetheart, they are.

Just, just have a little. You'll love 'em.

You guys wanna cut

my steak, too?

So, I hear you got

a girl, Pete.

What? No.

No, God, no.

No, it's just this girl

I met at a mixer.

Yeah, she's a DG.

But we 're not-- you know,

we 're just friends.

She's super athletic though.

She plays tennis and lacrosse.

You'd really like her.

Cool.

But, you know, she's, she's not

my girlfriend or anything.

We just started

hanging out.

Yeah.

Peter, it's okay for you

to have a girlfriend.

It's pretty normal.

Right, Dad?

I'm not sure

I understand.

You don't understand?

Have you guys

had sex yet?

Annie.

Was she good?

That's enough.

What?

You can tell everybody

about my life

about me having sex and who

with, but I can't ask him?

I asked you

not to tell him.

That's the only

thing I asked.

Thank you, Dad.

I hope you guys

have an awesome time.

Honey,

please, please stay.

No. No. Let me go.

Okay. Good news.

We ran the DNA

from his shirt

through the national database.

And we actually

found a match.

That's, that's incredible.

So what happens now?

You arrest him?

It's not that easy.

While the DNA is

on the database

it's still a John Doe- We

don't know who it belongs to.

I don't

understand.

Well, there were

other cases, Will

three of them, where

rapes were reported.

We were able to recover

genetic material

from the victim

and the crime scene.

The DNA profile

is the same.

It's just that we don't know

who it belongs to.

So he's done this before.

- Yes, he has.

- Oh, my God.

Well, he's had other girlfriends before.

I told you that.

These weren't

girlfriends, Annie.

These were minors

who reported a rape.

Well, DNA can be wrong.

The odds of these four samples

not coming from the same person

are in the hundreds of millions.

It's the same guy.

Now, look. We, uh, we

don't normally do this.

We 're very careful

with victim information.

But I'm hoping there

might be some kind

of connection between

all four of you girls.

Maybe you went to

the same camp together

you shopped

at the same mall.

I can't give you their names

but I was hoping that

you might take a look

at their pictures.

Wait a minute.

I don't know if this is a good idea.

No, no. I want,

I want to. Yeah.

All right, Annie, do

you know this girl?

She's from Cleveland.

She's fifteen years old.

No.

No? Okay.

This is the Milwaukee case.

This photo was taken

about a year ago.

She's fourteen.

Now, this girl was assaulted in St.

Louis seven months ago.

She's twelve.

Oh, my God.

I don't, I

don't know them.

Okay. It's okay.

You did a good job.

Thank you, Annie.

Honey.

No. I'm fine.

I just need a second.

So you're telling me the FBI's

been chasing this guy for years?

It looks that way, yeah.

Look, on the upside, Will there's

more information for us.

There's more

evidence for us.

The investigation is seeing

a real breakthrough.

I bet the agent in St.

Louis said the same thing

to some family

about seven months ago.

I understand your

frustration, Will, I do

but I'm working as hard

as I can for Annie.

Yeah, but it's

not enough, is it?

I mean, that sick f*** is still out

there grooming other girls, right?

Will, I'm doing all I can.

I'm sorry you don't see it that way.

Annie? Annie!

Did she come

down here?

You okay?

You want something

to drink? Water?

There were other girls.

What other girls?

Tell me what you mean.

Charlie. He had
