Previously on "The Family"...
That's a Windsor knot. I had a 2-year-old.
They took him and put him in the foster system.
What was his name?
Ben.
Gus, it worked. I got the mom.
Dr. Kleiner: Just wanted to let you know
that you missed your hormone injection today.
Once the drug's out of your system,
the urges will resurface.
- Where's Agent Clements? - I don't know.
- What did you do with him? - I...
What did you do with him?
You have to make them stop looking for you.
Did you hurt my brother?!
Yes.
I'll give you the money back...
the $10,000.
Is that what my brother's life is worth?
Is that him?
No. It's not him.
Let him take another look.
We know that he's been wrong before.
Why did he lie?
The man who took your son didn't kill Adam.
Ben did.
My mother is honored
and she will give her acceptance speech as soon as she's well.
Ben: Picture your life.
A series of moments stacked up like a house of cards.
_
If you could re-live any one of them,
would you do it different?
Help! My name is Adam Warren!
Help us!
Want to play?
My name is Adam Warren!
Help us!
Help me!
I tried that. No one can hear us.
Someone saw him take me.
You can be red this time.
They're gonna find us.
No, they won't.
Yes, they will.
They never found me.
No one was looking.
No one's looking for you, either.
That's not true.
We stopped looking for the mouse.
What was her name again?
It's not the same.
It's been too long.
They think you're dead.
Shut up.
Connect Four! I win!
Shut up!
I've never tried that.
[Knock on door]
Willa: Mom.
There's a photographer downstairs.
You need to take a shot for the papers.
Please.
Open the door.
The press already thinks something's wrong.
I'll take care of it, okay? I'll get rid of him.
We just need to get through the next few months,
and then it'll be like he was never even here.
I thought he'd be different.
You thought he would be your brother?
I'm sorry.
Well, that makes it all better.
Good morning.
I still can't do it.
Mom?
Don't call me that again.
What?
I know what you did to my son.
I...
There.
Windsor knot.
[Indistinct conversations in distance]
[Indistinct conversations echoing]
Welcome to the circus.
Can I get you to stand over here?
[Camera shutter clicks]
Acceptance speech is at 5:00 tonight.
Woman: The photographer is ready for you, Mrs. Warren.
Mom?
Why don't you sit down? Um...

Forensics got traces of Scarlet Oak off the bastard's boot.
It's a shot in the dark, I know,
but it only grows in this little pocket in the North Woods.
There are cabins up there.
If we could just get a team on the ground.
Clements: Hey, babe.
I'm an idiot.
Sorry I haven't called.
I'm just gonna lay low till I even out.
I love you.
He called his husband last night.
He's fine, Nina.
Jane: Ravioli, corn, and a few protein shakes.
Um, I'll open it up so you can get to it all real easy.
Where's your monster taking you?
Canada.
Romantic.
Once we're there, I'll call the police.
I will let them know where to find you.
I'll be nice and dead by then.
I don't want to go with him.
Then don't.
I have a baby to protect.

What took you so long?
Honey. Oh.
My sweet boy.
Why are you crying?
[Inhales sharply]
Because you're not real.
I'm just imagining you.
Why does that make me not real?
Oh, God.
I miss you so much.
I was right here.

We're bigger now.
We'll dig faster.

Bear or Rabbit?
We're gonna get out of here.
You're right.
But we're not going that way.
Well, which way are we gonna go?
There.
Are you okay?
I don't know what happened.
Oh, your... your scarf got caught in the wheel.
My granny made that.
Oh!
It's Granny's fault, then.
[Chuckles]
Be careful.
Could you give me a ride?
I just live a few miles from here.
Where's your mom?
Work.
But I'm not supposed to go this far.
She'll be pissed.

I've got his birth certificate. It's airtight.
She's the governor now.

Run it.

Above the fold?
Above. Below.
"Adam Warren is Ben Murphy"... you got the whole front page.
Michelle: And how about this political news out of Maine?
Yeah, what's the story there?
Soccer mom parks her minivan at the governor's office?
That's the story?
Yeah. You know what?
The woman's been through hell with her family
and instead of just, like, awling under the covers
like you and I would do, she runs for offise.
On what platform?
You know what? I'd vote for her.
Why? Based on her son?
Yeah. Based on her son.
You know, for 10 years, this poor kid...
he was kept in some kind of a dungeon.
I mean, what was it even? A hole?
A... A pit.
It was a dirty, disgusting underground pit.
[Echoing] Disgusting underground pit.
Happy to help.
Nina: Forensics got traces of Scarlet Oak off the bastard's boot.

Detective Meyer, Red Pines PD.
Well, you took a nice drive.
Yeah.
How many cabins like this in the area, would you say?
At least a dozen.
Any of them have basements?
Cellars or storage vaults?
Why?
The person I'm looking for likes to keep things underground.
Sorry. I don't know of any.
Thanks anyways.

A comment.
This is absolute nonsense.
This is tabloid journalism at its worst.
And timed right after an election,
it's clear the reporter's goal is only to malign
and further hurt a family already in unspeakable pain.
That's it?
No, I'm not done.
You'll get your 15 minutes.
They'll do your hair and makeup
for CNN and "Good Morning America"
and they'll give you free bottled water,
which you should load up,
and for one week,
they will make you feel very special and very pretty.
And then it'll be over because one story
doesn't turn you into a legitimate journalist.
It doesn't build a career.
One story makes you a hot flash in a dirty pan.
What's the offer, Willa?
Unprecedented access to the Governor's mansion.
First dibs on anything and everything, exclusives.
You will be the boss of us until the end of time.

Hello.
I canceled the rest of your day.
If you're not planning

I'll give the speech.

Where have you been?
I guess it's called an oil tunnel or a bunker.
I don't know.
It's not a place that deserves a name.

You should see it, too.
Why?
For 10 years, he was kept in a dirty cage like an animal.

Long, pointy tail, carried a pitchfork.

No. No.

desire.

Chocolate.
Whiskey.
Yeah, but taking a kid is not like eating a Hershey bar.
You've never had an urge?
Not like that, no.
What about her?

You shouldn't have done that, but you did it.
Are you trying to compare me to...

She's a consenting adult.
Okay.

All Forensics has got is that it's an adolescent male.
I'm gonna put him in a hole, Claire.
For what he did to both of them.
He should rot in a cage
smaller than the one he locked them in.
That's what he deserves,
and I'm asking you to help me do it.
What do you need?
Your DNA to confirm it's Adam.

Is there enough of my son left to bury?
Yes.

You ready?
I just ran for Governor, right?
And governors run for President.
[Camera shutters clicking, indistinct shouting]
Good morning.
I would like to thank you all for coming,
um...
Governor Lang for his gracious words last night,
and all the voters who came out on a very cold day
and participated in the political process.
Um...
I would not be here without the support of my family.
And it is for them that I want to make our state
a better place, a safer place.
Because we all have the right
to feel secure in our own neighborhoods.
We deserve a world in which we can
send our children off to the bus stop in the morning
without having to worry they won't come back.
That is my commitment to the people of Maine.
Here today, I will make that world a reality.
But great change doesn't come without great sacrifice,
and believe me,
we know that better than anyone.
The next four years won't be easy.
Nothing important ever is,
but I am ready to roll up my sleeves
and do whatever it takes for the brighter future
that we all deserve.
No matter what stands in my way,
I will never stop fighting for you,
for your families, and for your children.
I am so honored to be the next Governor
of the great state of Maine.
[Applause]
[Sighs]
It's not him.
What?
Forensics came back on the bones.
It's some other kid.
He was killed before Warren was even taken.
Then what happened to Adam?
[Baby crying]
[Crying continues]
Is there a bottle back there?
[Crying continues]
I'm gonna run inside.
Man: Help you with something?
Do you have a phone?
Over there.
Ben: Picture your life.
I've lived two of them.
Did you even try it?
The Governor-Elect doesn't have time to taste all the food.
Well, she should, because it came from the pet aisle.
[Laughter, telephone rings]
Every moment precious.
Claire: Someone get that?
It's the press.
Lang's concession speech isn't bad.
Come on. My hands are wet.
Let the machine get it.
Oh, now it's bad. Listen to this.
He says, "It has been an honor serving the people of Maine,
and I look forward to doing it again in the future."
It's just so blatant.
I didn't think he'd be this disrespectful.
Hello?
[Pounding]
We have to go right now.
There's something I need to do first.
You took my life.
I'm coming to get it back.
