A surveillance video picks up a black Corvette
in the mall parking lot the day the girls went missing.
And we got a description. Tall guy, buff.
The guy steals cars.
- Want a ride? - No, thanks.
Yeah. Ray Prager's name came up.
Mr. Prager came home at two in the morning.
I saw him in his driveway.
I gotta go downtown to the lab.
What evidence?
The pen she was holding, she might have stabbed the guy with it.
We get DNA from it, we get him.
I know what you did to Nathalie Lacroix.
If I have to fucking kill you Ray,
I'm gonna getcha.
You have no right.
No right to leave me!
You have no fucking right!
Dad? Dad, are you all right?
Yeah.
I'm fine.
I'm okay.
Roxy called.
Jake was in an accident.
He's dead.
What?
Drove his car went off the road and it blew up.
It was an accident?
They don't know everything right now.
But she said it was an accident?
Yeah, it was an accident. Look, are you all right?
Did your mom call today?
Not yet.
Jesus.
What happened?
Beer bottles, whiskey,
can of gasoline in the back seat.
How to commit suicide one-oh-one.
That looks like the pen.
Don't touch anything...
That pen is evidence,
when you're done here it comes to me.
That evidence is carbon.
Step away from the car.
That fucking pen should have been at the lab a week ago.
I don't know why Jake didn't take it in.
What? I'm supposed to be a nice guy now?
Nathalie Lacroix's dead too. What about that?
I didn't say anything.
That's the only good evidence we have
and the last thing he does is fuck it up.
Come on.
You're one cold bastard.
Did you hear about Jake?
Yeah.
Everybody's phoning, all the cops.
Trying to do something for his kids.
He was a good friend of my dad's.
I guess he's pretty broken up.
Sort of. It's hard to tell.
You know the night Ms. Lacroix died?
The 19th?
Well I saw your dad come home that night.
It was two in the morning.
You said he was with you.
You must've just...
forgotten or...
or been mixed up.
I mean I'm not saying he killed her...
Well then what are you saying, Sadie?
More that he wasn't with you all night.
Look, my dad's a good guy, okay?
He's just got a lot of shit on his mind right now.
Yeah, it's probably just a mix-up.
You should tell the police though, so it's clear.
You're the one who isn't clear.
You've got the wrong night okay?
September 19th.
Look, I gotta get back to work.
Thanks for the fries.
Forensics have gone through the stolen car.
It's about fucking time, what did they find?
We have hair.
- Nathalie's? - Blonde.
So Nathalie wasn't in the car.
This car. He steals cars, remember?
Traci's sure Ray kept his appointment with Nathalie Lacroix.
Nathalie had Ray Junior's short story. She gave it to Ray...
She called him on Friday from the school. He could've picked it up.
All I'm saying is what if it's not the car thief?
All the victims' hair was cut.
Ray kill all four of them?
Okay look, look.
Ray had this thing, he invented when we were kids.
You have sex with a girl, you cut her hair to prove you did it.
Nice.
But it's a big jump from a boy's game to killing four women.
Composite on our car thief came in this morning
from that surviving victim.
Matches descriptions we've got.
Doesn't look much like Ray Prager, does he?
So this is your career?
Fucking salesman in a whore house?
Ray, I'm the bookkeeper.
- Ray, you're hurting me! - You have any idea
what you're doing to me, Traci?
You're hurting me.
You're my wife and you're giving five buck hand jobs...
It's not what I'm doing.
I should kill you.
You're not talking Ray Junior again. I don't want you calling him.
I don't want you talking to him, you understand.
You can't tell me what to do...
You're breaking my arms...
Listen to me.
Ray Junior is my son, he's not yours.
You understand?
You stay away.
Maddie, what are you doing?
Mom!
- Lighting fires? - It's hardly burning.
It's a smudge stick, Mrs. Sweeney.
For emotional and spiritual purification.
Mr. Stephens is haunting me.
She says she was trying to get rid of a ghost.
- A ghost? - The guy who died here, Mr. Stephens.
And guess who's in her window box. It's your partner, Caleb.
She took his ashes out of the urn and planted him.
I'm worried about her.
I want to take her to the shrink.
Your health care covers that, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Can we go light the candles now?
I have to get back to work.
Mike...
I'm sorry about what happened with the lingerie.
It wasn't okay for me to take it from Ray.
Audrey, we don't have to talk about everything. I...
I thought I looked really great and just,
I wanted to show off to you...
what's left to show off.
I gotta get back, I gotta get back.
I told Ray Junior about the alibi.
- Sadie, it doesn't involve you... - No. He's lying.
It's your sister's birthday.
Enjoy your life.
And eat some cake.
Dad, I can break him.
Come on, light the candles, Sadie.
Come on girls, let's light the candles.
The canvass down at the lakeshore.
They've got a witness. He saw Nathalie Lacroix.
Wait for you in the car.
Honey, honey, I gotta go.
- Can't you just wait for one minute? - Can't.
Sweetie, happy birthday.
Saturday we'll do something special, okay?
- Promise? - Promise.
Woman's been killed here! What did you see?
She's walking with somebody, I ride by,
I come back two minutes later, they're gone.
I told the uniform over there that I only saw the redhead.
Didn't have eyes for the guy.
Was he a tall guy?
I was riding, I was looking at the redhead...
What about his hair colour? Blonde? Dark? What?
I told you...
Just try to remember whatever you can...
Okay, what about that guy?
The plumbing guy.
- I've seen his ads. - It's not him?
All I remember the guy could've been you.
Thank you, sir, that will be all. We'll stay in contact.
What's with you, man?
What have you got?
Lots of red hair. Maybe some blood.
Maybe the murder weapon.
You need a hand with that?
No, I'm good.
Listen, I got a... doctor's appointment with my daughter, eleven o'clock.
- I'll be back for the funeral. - We'll see you there.
Claire, what are you doing here?
You wanted to talk about Ray.
Daddy?
Are you ready?
Audrey... This is Claire Bissett.
This is my wife, Audrey.
Claire just stopped by.
We have an appointment.
I'm gonna have to meet you there. I can't, I can't make it.
But you don't have a car. How're you going to get there?
I'll catch a cab, okay? This is important.
- It's police business. - Daddy...
- Come on, Maddie. - I'll see you there-
I read about those women.
That's why I'm here.
Can I get you a coffee, you want water? You want anything?
You asked me about Ray,
is he capable of violence.
Yes, he is.
He raped me.
He hit me in the stomach,
then he held me down.
And the whole time,
all the way through it, he kept telling me
I was cheating on you.
Why didn't you tell me?
Tell you?
He convinced you I was fucking everyone.
You believed him.
This was at the farm, right?
How did you know?
Did he cut your hair?
- You knew. - No.
No, Claire, not about you.
He's done it before.
I should've seen it.
I'm so sorry, Claire.
Maddie.
Will you wait in the other room while I talk to your mother?
It's not as bad as you think.
Maddie copes better than most.
She's seeing ghosts.
Mr. Stephens is a displacement.
Maddie wants to save you and Mike.
I don't understand.
You almost died of cancer.
Mike could have died in the shooting that took his partner.
But you didn't, either of you.
So there's hope.
That's what Maddie needs to understand,
that there's hope.
Did you report the rape?
Yes, but the record was wiped.
Why?
I used it as leverage
when Mike was charged.
- What do you mean, leverage? - Charged with what?
I was charged with juvenile manslaughter when I hit Ray with the car.
Attempted manslaughter.
- I thought it was an accident. - It was.
There was snow, there was ice.
I hit the gas instead of the brake.
But you were charged. That's a criminal charge...
It wasn't going to stick! Ray lied!
It was going to stick, Mike.
I told Ray I'd charge him with rape if he didn't retract.
What?
What I did for you, you prick.
And you just walked out of here.
You didn't even call me.
You never think about how it all adds up.
The wreckage you leave behind.
I never meant to hurt anybody.
Liar.
What?
Nothing.
Into God's keeping, we commend our sister
Nathalie, here departed.
We commit her body to the ground.
Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Trusting in God's great mercy
that we have been born anew to a living hope.
Grant Nathalie eternal rest, o Lord.
May her soul and the souls of all the departed rest in peace.
Let us now find comfort
in the words of Scripture:
Even though I walk
through the shadow of doubt,
I fear no evil.
Though anointest my head with oil,
my cup overflows.
What are you afraid of?
You okay?
Yeah, yeah. I'm fine.
We need to, uh, we need to talk to Ray Junior again,
we gotta figure out his father's alibi.
We're looking for a car thief used to drive a Corvette.
There's nothing that connects the Corvette to Nathalie Lacroix.
The connect is Ray.
It's the hair, the way it's cut. It's him, Tom.
I don't have a motive.
Traci leaves, something inside of his head snaps.
It's in there, it's always has been in there.
You heard what Claire said.
We have a legitimate suspect, Mike. You're losing focus.
Raymond? I need to talk to you.
- I've got nothing to tell you, Mr. Sweeney. - Dad...
- Dad, what are you doing? - Raymond?
Leave me alone!
Detective Sweeney.
I need you to stay away from my kid...
Why are you sitting on him, Ray?
You threatened me last night,
you're going to get me, you're going to fucking kill me.
Now you're stalking my son?
I think I'm going to file a complaint.
You do what you gotta do.
You have a nice day.
Raymond?
The ceremony's at eleven tomorrow morning, is that okay?
Yeah, yeah, I'll be there.
What's this?
It's for my sister.
You're welcome to join us if you want.
Of course.
Of course I'll be there.
No, no, you're not coming, dad.
Mike, isn't that your car?
Hey, what do you think?
Bought her off Roxy.
Offer she couldn't refuse.
Hey Mikey, stay away from my fucking kid.
Hey Dad, what's wrong with you?
I mean, you're not going to get anywhere
trying to chase Ray Junior unlike...
Sadie, I don't care. You need to go home.
Nathalie Lacroix,
Sally Morgan, their hair, same cuts.
The Travis girls, different cuts.
I see both cuts on Maggie.
Well maybe they're working together?
That explains the cut, Ray's proximity...
The car thief's M.O. doesn't put him with a partner...
Ray cuts hair. He collects it...
You know what I think?
You're gunning for the guy. Ever since Claire...
- He's got a history of violence... - And you don't?
That attempted manslaughter charge.
I checked the accident report. There was no ice, no snow.
Visibility was perfect.
Ray killed Nathalie Lacroix!
The way you working, he's going to get away with it.
Lying to the police, Ray, is a serious crime...
My dad was home...
She believed in you.
And this is how you pay her back?
You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
Dead! She's dead, you little fuck.
Maybe you don't give a damn?
Maybe you're just like your father.
You know what I think?
I think that when people die,
they're buried and they go back in the earth.
That's all?
That's all. It's not so bad.
I planted Uncle Caleb in my window box.
Mommy told me. And he's blooming.
Go on, honey, brush your teeth.
Listen, Audrey,
I didn't know Claire was coming by today.
But it was important that I talk to her...
The woman you named your car after.
She won't be quite as happy about the Taurus.
It means nothing.
Like everything else.
You show any weakness,
they're gonna rip you to shreds, they're gonna eat you alive.
You get yourself a mantra...
'I am, I am Destruction,
I will not be destroyed. '
And harness that power,
you let that electricity run right fuckin through you
and you're a man-god.
A man-god.
Yeah, 'I am destruction, I am a man-god. '
That's me, dad.
You're a puny little fuck,
you let Mike Sweeney push you around...
Well what am I supposed to do, sucker a cop?
Be a fucking man.
There she is.
She looks like her sister, huh?
To water, air,
fire and earth,
she's gone.
She was such a wonderful person.
She said you were wonderful too, you know.
She said your stories reminded her of Raymond Carver's.
She called us the two Ray's.
We're the two Ray's now, kid. And don't you forget it.
Like father, like son.
Let's think about her now.
Mr. Prager!
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I got, I got carried away.
It's okay.
Thanks for coming right over.
Hey, not a problem.
Hey this, uh, this is for you.
And that's the one.
So why don't you take a break.
Mom, what are you doing?
Oh, Ray's giving us a hand.
Dad was supposed to install them...
Yeah, he was. But he didn't do it.
So that's why Ray's here.
I'll get you some orange juice.
- Fresh-squeezed. - Thanks.
Hey little girl.
Hey honey, you're home.
Hey, big guy.
I should, uh, I should hit the trail.
You make sure you give me that bill.
No, no. No charge, Audrey.
Okay? And don't give me any lip, 'cause
it's gotta be a struggle on one income, right?
I'll see you around.
Don't forget to test the new seat on your throne.
I told you Ray Prager is a suspect.
That man is kind, thoughtful and generous.
He's more in touch with himself than you'll ever be.
Why don't you believe me?
Why should I believe you?
- Because I wouldn't lie- - You lie all the time!
Before you launch into endless self-justification,
Claire called, and I know she's a priority
so you should probably deal with her first...
I am not screwing around with Claire.
Then who the fuck are you screwing around with?
You think I can't tell?
You think I don't notice that you don't want to be here?
That you don't give a goddam shit about this place?
You'd be happier if I'd had died, wouldn't you?
Answer me.
Answer me, you prick!
Yes! Yes! Yes!
Fuck you, Audrey! Fuck you straight to hell!
Yeah, well somebody should.
Spiff, huh?
GQ man of the year.
Where are you going?
I'm gonna go down to that bar down on Blakely.
Dad, the crowd's a little young for you there.
Yeah, well maybe I got a date.
Why don't you take her for a walk down to the lake.
You want to come?
- What? - Why not, right?
The two Rays.
Like father, like son.
No thanks.
Your loss.
Fantastic.
Dad.
Dad!
I'm going to the library.
What do you want, Mike? A divorce, what?
- It's Claire? - No.
No, it's not Claire.
So what is it?
I'm sorry.
We're so fucked up.
We're going to be fine. I promise.
I don't want us to be over.
It's plastic.
And it's filled with gel.
You're not into it, are you?
It doesn't bother me.
I love you.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I guess this means we're not friends anymore.
Yeah.
Yeah, soon we'll be as screwed up as our parents.
Don't say that.
Well...
I should go or they'll put me in a tower
and you'll never see me again.
I keep seeing her over there.
Ms. Lacroix, by the water.
I looked at my father's notes.
This is where she died.
What?
The crime scene.
I thought you'd want to see it.
Yeah, isn't that kind of screwed up...
Listen.
We should go.
Police found her hair on the bushes.
A rock with blood on it.
There were pieces of it with the ones matching in her skull.
And even so, they're no closer to finding the guy.
Well maybe he's left town okay?
I read the police reports.
Bootmarks on her ribcage.
He kicked her, knocked the wind out of her.
Well she hit back though, right, she slashed him with a pen!
I don't want to hear it, okay?
He broke two vertebrae when he strangled her.
And that's hard to do.
He was angry about something.
- What do you think it was, Ray? - I don't know!
- What could have made him that angry? - I don't know!
Well whatever it was, that's why he killed her!
Ray?
You weren't with your dad, were you?
That's what this is about?
- I mean, you call me here, you fuck me? - No!
- What kind of a sick person are you? - No! No!
I like you.
I like you, Ray! I really.
I want to be with you.
But this is so important, Ray!
Ray!
She loves me.
She loves me... not.
I've been using a salon line, French.
This is our eastern European spa line.
Exclusive to us.
Tell me what skin type I am
Listen, I'm just the bookkeeper. Dolly's with a client right now...
No, she's not.
Nobody's here.
Just you.
Pull up your sleeve and show me your arm.
That must've hurt.
Maybe I'll come back some day.
Rescue you.
I guess I interrupted you.
I know who you are.
- The Travis girls... - Get out of my way.
What did you do to her?
No, hey man, it's cool. I mean, shit.
She deserves to die, the way she treated me.
You little shit.
You want it up the ass,
I'll give it to you.
I'll tear you to pieces.
Yeah hi, is this Dodo's?
I'm just checking on a plumbing job.
One of our guys was supposed to come by
and fix one of the showers on the stage,
Night of September 19th?
He didn't come?
You're sure?
No, thanks.
I didn't want to call the police.
I mean, I know you're the police but...
I don't want Ray to know.
All his friends are cops,
and Ray Junior he'd,
he'd be embarrassed, me working there.
You could work somewhere else, Traci.
You ran Ray's company.
You're better than that...
Did Ray ever hurt you?
He's always been very good to me...
What if I told you he raped someone.
The night you took the sleeping pill, was he home?
- I was asleep. How would I know... - You know.
Traci, it's important.
Somebody could get killed. Maybe you.
- I have to go in now. - I'll walk you to your door.
No. I'm fine.
Hey Ray, it's me.
I'm just downstairs in your garage.
Will you come and get me?
I'm just, I'm really sorry, okay?
I didn't mean it.
I'm just... worried about my dad.
Same as you.
Ray Junior's not here.
What are you, uh, what are you sorry about? You can talk to me 'cause I'm uh,
I'm a good listener.
I have to go.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, hey, hey, darling.
You're worried about Mike, my boy's worried about me.
What's going on?
Nothing.
Nothing's going on.
You got a pretty little mouth.
I'm going to tell Ray Junior that he's a lucky, lucky boy.
Sadie, do you know what time it is?
What were you doing in the garage with Ray Prager?
Nothing.
Nothing, I was looking for Ray Junior.
He's lying.
He's lying about the alibi.
You sent her out to shake down Ray Junior?
No, I didn't.
I brought him to the crime scene in the park.
I told him how Ms. Lacroix was killed.
He got upset.
And that's when I asked him.
And his body language, you could just,
you could just read the guilt off it...
What did he say, exactly? Exactly, Sadie?
No, it's what he didn't say.
Dad, he's lying, and I can try again.
You will do nothing of the sort. You will go to your room.
You know I'm right.
Go now!
And you will take your goddam obsession with Ray Prager and check it.
Ray Prager killed Nathalie Lacroix.
I don't know why don't you believe me.
What? You here to get me?
You're trespassing.
I came to talk about Claire.
Claire?
You raped her.
She says.
Your girlfriend was the one screwing me.
And you're still fucking jealous.
You raped her.
And you wanted her dead. Who said that...
We were kids, Ray, I was drunk.
Really?
Is that your fucking excuse, man?
Gas instead of brake, buddy, it was an accident.
Foot stayed on the gas, Mike.
You went straight at her...
I turned the wheel, buddy.
Come on, you fucking asshole!
You didn't turn the fucking goddamn wheel. You know that?
I pushed her out of the way, you hit me,
you fucking prick.
You've got it in you, buddy.
You forget how you used to take on all those fucking guys
like it was a goddamn war.
Hey buddy? Forget all that? Scorched earth, Jesus, Mike.
Prisoners, fuck 'em all, take 'em all,
kill 'em all, remember that, Mikey?
Bullshit, that is bullshit.
- It wasn't like that. - Hey, I admired it, man, you know.
I figured that's why you became a cop.
Gives you carte blanche when the monster comes out, huh?
Yeah, so I got a license to blow your fucking head off.
There you go, there's my boy, that's what I'm talking about, where is he?
Shut up! You delusional prick,
You killed Nathalie Lacroix!
You motherfucker. You were fucking Nathalie Lacroix.
Right, are you going to get me, officer?
Oh I'm coming.
I'm coming.
It's midnight, Mike.
What is it that can't wait 'til morning?
I got it. I figured it out.
Figured what out?
Maggie's hair, the two different cuts.
Look, the farm, the barn, the house. Over here, the crime scene.
Remember I told you Ray used to live up there?
I think that he took a trip down memory lane,
to a time when he was king of the castle.
Yeah, can I get Superintendent Palmer please?
He's mimicking.
He saw the guy cut Maggie Travis's hair.
He cut her hair, too.
And it's his cut on Sally.
And it is his cut on Nathalie.
And our guy in the Corvette,
he's the master,
and Ray is the secret apprentice learning his craft.
This here belongs to Nathalie Lacroix.
Her notebook. You ever see it?
No, sir. Where did you get it?
You were the first one in her apartment, right?
You're the one who checked on the computer,
telephone, cell phone messages...
Everything.
Twice.
Didn't see it.
You didn't see it?
No, sir.
No mention of a boyfriend?
Not that we found, no.
Your name's in it.
Where were you, Mike, the night that she was killed?
Downtown. At my old house.
You're sure?
I mean, it's been a while.
I'm sure.
'Cause, uh, notebook says here that
you and Miss Lacroix had a dinner date that night,
night she was killed. 7 o'clock.
I didn't see her.
Your hand was all messed up the very next day.
Bruised, cut...
I told you, in moving.
The autopsy report indicates she was punched in the face.
Seems like she was more than just a friend, Mike.
You lied to me.
You strung me along in her apartment,
so you could clean up your own mess.
I trusted you.
We're going to hold you for questioning.
