- Hey, Counselor. Harrison Novak.
- They're all wrapped the same. They must be yours.
- These aren't mine.
- Thanks for coming right over. - Yeah, of course.
- It seems clear that we have
a second serial killer at large.
- [screams]
- And you are? - Her husband.
- Oscar and Jason just escaped from prison.
[alarm blaring] - Who's out there?
Show me your hands. - Oh, my God. Don't shoot me.
- I got a call from Detroit PD.
They pulled prints from a liquor store robbery
last night--Jason Wyler's.
- Who are you?
- I'm the man hunting your ex-husband.
- Ahh! - Malvado.
- If you hear of Jason's whereabouts, let me know.
- What's that?
- Oh, a secret note from my secret lover.
- Where do you find the energy?
I barely have the strength for one lover.
- I know. I've been meaning to talk to you
about putting some more effort in.
- That's fair. You working today?
- Yep, and I see you're going in early.
- Yeah, I'm going to talk to that, uh, detective in Detroit,
see if they have any updates on Jason.
- Do you really believe
my psychotic ex-husband is on the run?
- Well, it seems like it.
You can't be too careful.
I'm just happy to get some normalcy back in our lives,
where normalcy means, you know, double serial killers.
- Well, on the bright side,
at least one of them is already in custody.
- Always the optimist.
- It's my secret lover's favorite thing about me.
- Well, see, that's what separates us.
I could never pick only one favorite thing.

- That's right. - Hi, I'm Lucy Chen.
Um, I was hoping to talk to you about your former student
Seth Ridley.
I'm his training officer at the LAPD.
- Is he in trouble? - No, not at all.
I was just looking to get some clarity on some things,
and I thought the school guidance counselor
would be the best person to ask.
- All right, then.
Well, better come in.
- Thank you.
- What about you?

- Oh, totally, totally. I--
Not. Totally not.
Would--would you actually be able to put in a good word

That would-- I would owe you big-time.
[cell phone chimes] - Hey.
- Huh?
- Think we'll be end of shift by 8:00 tonight?
- Ah, I-I mean, there's a serial killer on the loose.
I wouldn't expect to clock out on time.
- [sighs] There's got to be some kind of work-life balance
eventually, though, right? - Not as a rookie.
I haven't been on a date in three months.
Why? What's at 8:00 p.m.?
- He's got a long-distance love with the missus.
- Oh. - We ain't married, all right?
Just exclusive since high school.
Camilla's still in Texas looking for the right time
to move out.
- And live in your car.
- I'll find a place before then.
She's my angel.
Got with me when I was gonna make football money

She sacrificed a hell of a lot for me.

- Bad news--
Remy Darden succumbed to his injuries this morning.
- So you're the only living witness.
- Which means we have jack squat,
because the only description I can give of our serial killer
is white male, unknown age, somewhere near 6 feet,
and somewhere around 175 pounds.
- But it's better than nothing. - Not by much.
- Hey, brought you some fresh clothes,
in case you want to change after,
and the appropriate shoes to match.
- Always so thoughtful. - Ah, well-trained.
- [inhales and exhales]
- Are you okay?
- My heart hurts.
So much pain before they died.
I knew in my mind such evil exists,
but it always shocks my soul to see it.
- Good morning. - Oh, morning.
How you feeling? - Fine. Day off helped.
- I wish I could say I found something helpful
in your absence, but I did not.
- No DNA? - The opposite--too much.
I found trace evidence of literally hundreds of people
contaminating both the murder lab
and the bodies of our serial killer's ten victims.
- How is that possible?
- Oh, he muddied the scene with a DNA buffet.
He literally collected medical waste--
sharps, latex gloves, discarded bandages--
and he used them to corrupt everything that he touched.
- That's kind of brilliant.
Uh, in a pure, evil way.
I mean, even if we can pull his DNA from a victim and match it,
any defense attorney with a pulse
will be able to prove reasonable doubt.
- I'm afraid I have more troubling news.
The autopsies revealed that all but one of the victims
were infected with a variety of bloodborne illnesses
before he strangled them to death.
- From the used syringes? - Yeah.
He was literally using them like a science experiment.
- But before you panic,
we found the needle he used on you and tested it.
I wouldn't say it was clean,
but there was nothing communicable within.
- We'll get you regular testing for the next six months.
But if they didn't find anything in the needle,
you should be okay. - Okay.
- But on the good news front,
most of the medical waste was generic,
found in every hospital and doctor's office
around the state, except for these four syringes,
which are trial design,
only used at Saint Stephen Hospital.
- You could have led with that.
- He's an actor. He likes the drama.
- Former actor.
And I like setting realistic expectations.
- All right, so, just to be clear,
we're looking for a white male of indeterminate age,
height, weight,
with some form of connection
to Westview Psychiatric Institution
and Saint Stephen Hospital--
places that employ and treat thousands of people a year.
- Talk about setting expectations.
- And here I was, feeling hopeful.

Miles and I are going to go to the range later on,

- I visited your high school this morning, Ridley.
- Uh, that's cool. Why?
- Because I wanted some clarity
about your high school experience.
- And?
- Why don't you tell me, Ridley?
What--what exactly did I discover?
- You found out that I was telling the truth
about my friend who OD'd... - [scoffs]
- And that she was not my girlfriend.
And I did go on a date with her a couple months
before Rory Hatcher's party.
And I did give her CPR,
but Rory Hatcher's dad actually saved her.
- And?
- And you discovered that I lied to you and Miles
about the girl who died in a car accident.
And she was not my girlfriend either.
I was actually a freshman when she was a senior,
and I've never met the girl.
- [sighs]
- Do you want to know why I lied?
- I can figure that out for myself.
- Well, what if I told you that I was ashamed of what I did
and that I have struggled in the past
using these half-truths to get me out of trouble?
Just--I've sworn to myself that I wasn't going to be
this guy anymore when I joined the LAPD.
But then I threw up in a crime scene on day one,
and I panicked, and I should have owned up to my failures,
but I just--
I should have suffered the consequences.
What are the consequences?
- I don't--I don't know yet.
- We have an onsite incinerator in the basement.
It's where all of our medical waste is disposed.
- Who has access to it? - Custodial staff.
Plus, we have a dedicated incineration team.
Everyone's passed background checks.
But a few months ago,
our security staff found a patient, Ryan Dearbourne,
wandering around the basement with a medical bag.
At the time, he claimed he was lost.
Couldn't explain the bag.
- Back in Texas,
we call that clue "sweeter than stolen honey."
- I like him. - No comment.
- Are you seeing anyone?
Because I have a niece who has had it up to here with LA guys.
- [chuckles] If she's anywhere near as lovely as you,
I'm sure she'll have her pick of men.
Unfortunately, I am taken. - It's long distance.
He'll be single soon enough.
- What do you have against long-distance relationships?
- They aren't relationships.
The day-to-day support, the way you weave your lives together,
that's a relationship.
Chatting on Zoom is a friendship at best.

Relationships come in all forms.

- All right, Ryan Dearbourne
has been a repeat patient at Westview Psychiatric
since he was a teenager.
His most recent stint was 16 months ago.
Schizophrenia,
borderline personality disorder,
drug addiction.
- Has he ever crossed paths with Harrison Novak?
- He did. At least he could have.
There is a two-month overlap during their teenage years.
- Okay. So what do you think?
- Whew.
I think it looks like a cautionary tale
for how society fails those with mental health issues.
- I mean, what do you think about how we should approach?
- Oh, right, well, uh,
I mean, we don't have probable cause to enter.
So...
first step is to try to get the suspect into the open.

the thrill of raw violence

Oh, Jason's phone-- he left that before he ran off.

Easy. Nice and easy. - I'm okay.
Multiple contusions, possible concussion,
slight whiplash, and some injury to my ribs.
It's either fractured or sprained--I'm not sure.

- Ah, I'm gonna go to the hospital with her.
- Of course. - Uh, this is Jason's phone.
- He called the woman he ran off with
right before we crashed.
- Hey, I-I need a name and trace
on this phone number right now.
- I'll have all the units in the area lock down the grid.
We're not gonna let Jason get away again.
- All right, it's registered to Drew Davis--
uh, 28, female, lives in La Cañada.
[dramatic music]
- I know her.
No, she--she pretended she was drunk.
She broke into the yard.
She said she was looking for a friend's house.
- She must have been trying to test out
your security system for Jason. - That's his move.
Make some poor young woman think he's in love with her
and then ruin her life. - Trace came in.
It's a few blocks from here, headed west on Sixth.
- Control, suspect's heading west on Sixth Street
toward Anderson--code 3.
- Go.
- You sure? - Go. Catch him.
- Okay.
