Hey, buddy,

you need a hug?

- Hey.

- David,

what are you doing here?

I don't know. I just...

I just wanted to talk.

Well...

You know I'd like to be there for you,

but right now just isn't a good time.

I have company.

- Oh... No, no.

- Mmm.

Of course.

Of course.

- Have a good night.

- Yeah.

Buddy, you need a kiss, that's all.

Come here.

How you doing, you?

- Good morning.

- Morning.

Hey, listen. Grab your things.

I wanna take you somewhere.

- You don't want any coffee?

- No, no, no,

I'll get some on the way. Come on.

- Where? Where're we going?

- Come on! Come on, come on.

- Where are you taking me?

- You know where we're going.

- Not the abuse center.

- That's exactly where we're going.

Wil, this is not a good idea.

Kari, they helped you

get well once before...

I don't wanna go.

- I don't need to go.

- They can do it again.

I said I don't want to go. Are you deaf?

Madame.

Always my knight in shining armor.

Always.

Listen, listen. You got this. Okay?

Through everything.

Unfortunately,

the world rarely cooperates.

Still, you have to push through it.

Thank you, ladies. I'll see you next week.

Yes, thank you.

Yes, that's right.

Mikayla.

- Look at you.

- Yeah.

Yeah, I never thought

I'd be back here again.

- Wil told me about you and your baby.

- Yeah.

- I'm sorry. I haven't kept in touch and...

- Oh, that's okay, that's okay.

What's important is that you're back now.

- So Wil told you everything?

- I know you're drinking again.

Well, I only started

because Mikayla is...

Oh, no, no, no.

Now you can't blame that on your daughter.

I know you.

And we both know where this is coming from.

Don't we? Don't we?

I've just...

Been carrying this dead child

inside me for so long.

Mikayla, you have to

forgive your father and move on.

I don't wanna forgive him.

Besides, he's dead, anyway.

Really? He seems very much alive to me.

There comes a point in everybody's life

where you have got to

learn how to heal yourself.

I mean, some people

write letters that they never send.

Other people,

they just yell and scream at the wall.

But they have got to push through it.

There's only one thing you need to know.

And that is that God is here.

He was there for you then,

and he's there for you now.

I've been looking for a message,

some kind of help, but

nothing is there, and...

He is there!

He is there.

Stop that nonsense.

Well, good morning to you, Jezebel.

And don't you look lovely.

Yes.

Did He not say,

"Remember me when we eat and drink"?

Come on, come on. Give me something.

Yes! He took the bait.

All we need is a time and a place.

This guy fits the profile perfectly.

Say yes. Come on, come on.

I need your help.

Check out the tourist, 6 o'clock.

Hey, that's Eddie Lanier.

I just shook him down the other day.

Bingo.

- FBI! Get down on the ground!

- Police, freeze!

- Get down on the ground!

- Stop! Police!

Get down on the ground, now!

- All right!

- Let's go, let's go!

Get him up. Get him up. Cuff him.

I'm not fighting. You've got the wrong guy.

Not from what I saw, player.

I got no idea what you're talking about.

- Get him out of here.

- Take him to the car.

We got him.

Dispatch, be advised.

We have suspect in custody.

Preparing for transport...

In the beginning, God created man

from the very dust of the earth.

He breathed into him the breath of life.

And he became a living

nefesh, a living soul.

God breathed into him his destiny.

He breathed into him his purpose.

He breathed into him goals,

and concepts and creativity.

Whether you know it or not,

all of that is found inside of you.

The apostle, Paul, said,

"Those He did foreknow,"

"He did also predestin,"

"that we might be conformed into

the image of His dear son."

The reason that God sent you into the earth

is so that you can

exhale what God inhaled inside of you.

So that you can push out of you

all of things that God

has put inside of you.

I came to tell you

tonight you're not through living yet...

Hey. Hey, man!

The difference between

me and Detective Barrick

is that I play by

a whole different set of rules.

Sometimes, I don't even play by the rules.

Do you know, since 9/11,

I can detain a suspect without due process?

All I got to do is

declare you as a national security risk.

And then, it's one phone call from me

and you're on a plane

to some shithole in a Third World country.

You don't scare me, man.

- I'm not the...

- We know you're not the Merrero Killer.

Now, who are you protecting, damn it?

Whatever your friend's got planned,

it is nothing compared to what I got.

Suit yourself.

- Have it your way.

- Okay.

Okay, okay, okay, okay.

But you gotta protect me.

You gotta protect me, man.

- Who is he?

- His name is Remy Hebert.

- Huh? Huh?

- Remy Hebert.

- Where is he?

- He's in Algiers.

Let's

Chopper four,

we have target in sight, sir.

Standing by for further...

Allegations

and complications based around Kari Ames.

Just days ago, New Orleans police

uncovered her past

involving prostitution...

Smith.

Did He not say,

"Those enemies of mine,

who do not want me to be king over them,"

"to bring them here"

"and slaughter them before me."

- Take him!

- Come here.

- Read him his rights.

- Where's my daughter?

- Where is she?

- Which one was yours?

- You sick bastard!

- Let him go, let him go!

Hey, hey, hey.

Stand down.

Piece of...

All right, that's enough.

Stop it. Stop it!

That's enough. That's enough. Come on!

Move him over here, quick.

- Yes, that's right, get him.

- Where are the kids?

- Give me your arm.

- Mikayla Ames.

Search his house.

Mikayla!

Alana Parker.

- Do you know her?

- Yes, that's one of my children.

This is Cobbs, badge 444.

I'm under the Broad Street overpass.

And I've just located a van

matching the description of the MK killer.

What about Christopher Smith?

Oh, spirited little boy, yes.

Uh-huh. Spirited youngster.

And Samuel Willoughby?

You seen him before?

Yes, yes, I knew this little child, yes.

Lynette Beckham.

What a... What a little beauty, yes.

And Mikayla Ames.

What about her?

Yes, I knew all of those.

But... But not her.

You better leave me alone!

My baby.

He killed my child.

I'm sorry.

What possessed you to do this?

Well, they were merely...

Merely sacrifices

to change the course of nature.

What is this

"needing to change the course of nature"?

All of it!

I mean, look around you, woman.

Six days. Six days it took God Almighty

to build a land called Eden.

A heaven on earth.

And?

And man is destroying it!

This goodly earth, the air, the sea.

Even the little animals

are filled with poison.

What has this got to do

with killing children?

They were my offerings to God Almighty!

- On the Sabbath!

- You know what? Get up.

For his mercy.

It was for the...

It was for the good of mankind.

Get him away from me.

It was for the glory of

God, the good of man.

So there's a chance,
