[blues song playing]
I promised the birthday girl we'd celebrate
With a slice of pie no matter what time my shift ended.
Oh, don't tell me, let me guess.
You're...16.
No, silly, I'm 7.
Why don't you do the honors
And you pick the place to sit.
Over there.
I personally think these are the best seats in the house.
Now, who wants some pie?
You know what flavor you want?
What shall we get?
Why don't I give you a minute to decide
And I'll come back and take your order.
Great, thanks.
By the way, chocolate cream pie's the best.
Ok.
Sorry for the wait.
We're light on staff tonight.
That's the number 4--scrambled eggs, hashbrowns,
Sausage, and bacon,
And this is on the house.
Let me know if you need anything else, hon.
Good evening, officer.
Oh, I need to run to the back
To get more cream and sugar.
The only sugar I want is you.
I told you, I don't date married men.
What if I told you my wife just moved out?
Then I'd tell you to lose the wedding band
And then I'll consider.
How we doin' over here, hon?
Is everything all right?
Can I get you something else?
Ok. Uh...
I'll just leave this here,
And whenever you're ready--
Oh, my god!
[gunshots]
[clatter]
[sighs]
Baby.
What are you doing? Why are you still up?
I'm sorry. I'm sorry if I woke you up.
The hospital just called. A 6-car pileup on the east end.
Oh, rusty will probably need a walk in a few hours.
I already filled his bowls, so he should be good for now.
Oh.
Uh, eggs and juice in the fridge,
I made a fresh pot of coffee. Make sure you unplug it when you're done.
Don't forget to lock up when you leave.
[whimpering]
Good morning to you, too.
[text message tone]
Ohh...
This is a joke, right?
With their knitting projects, even ethel, who's like pushing 90.
And this bathing suit was supposed to be done in July
And I keep having to rework it. But I got this part, see.
Yeah, it's fine. It looks nice.
You're not really looking at my project.
You always look at my projects, derek. What's wrong?
[sighs] ah, baby girl, I'm sorry. I mean, I don't know--
Me and savannah, we had like this amazing night.
She's throwing me an air kiss and rushing out the door to work,
And I'm stuck at 2:00 in the morning walking her little pug.
Ohh...You got morganed.
Morganed? What? What are you talking about?
You are on call 24/7, and when a case comes in,
You drop whatever and whoever you are doing
And you haul ass back to work.
Well, I guess I never thought about it like that.
And now you're having what oprah calls an aha moment.
Think about it. If you would have gotten that call,
You would have done the exact same thing to her.
Because your job comes first and so does hers.
And that is why you two work.
Ohh...
She is you in heels.
[sighs] you're right.
Mm-hmm. I'm always right.
Also, you're secretly in love with me.
Door?
Forgive me.
My queen.
Don't let it happen again.
A few hours ago,
A lone gunman shot and killed 3 people
Inside a downtown chicago diner.
Then, he was taken down by a plainclothes off-duty officer
Who happened to be in the restaurant
At the same time of the shooting.
Well, it sounds like they got their guy.
Why are they requesting our help?
Because an atm from across the street
Captured this image of the shooter
Getting out of a late-model sedan
And here's a shot of his driver who then sped off.
Chicago p.D. I.D.'d the shooter
After getting a composite match from the national center
According to the database, gavin's been missing for nearly 4 years.
In looks like back in 2009
When the mother filed the police report
She insisted gavin had been abducted.
Mom was not the most credible source.
She was in and out of rehab facilities
For drug and alcohol abuse, died 6 months ago
It says here gavin had run away from home several times
But always returned within 24 hours.
Which could by why local p.D. Initially categorized him
As a runaway rather than missing.
So where's this kid been all this time,
And where did he meet his partner in crime?
Garcia, have you been able to I.D. The driver?
We can't rule out the possibility that the driver
Is the person responsible for gavin's disappearance.
If that's the case, chances are
How does a 12-year-old runaway turn into a cold-blooded killer?
Wheels up in 30.
Reporter: ...A senseless act of violence.
Who was at the diner with her 7-year-old daughter at the time of the shooting.
Sylvia, can you tell us in your own words what happened?
I was sitting at the counter with my daughter
When I heard a woman screaming,
And that's when I turned around and saw the gun.
And I don't know, this kid just stood up and started shooting.
Morgan: Alfred hitchcock said,
"there is no terror in the bang,
Only in the anticipation of it."
She was working her regular overnight shift at the diner.
The second victim was kyle workman.
He worked at a local convenience store.
And the third was violet hartford. She was a schoolteacher.
It seems like other than late-night cravings,
There was no connection
It looks as though he was born into a high-risk lifestyle.
On two separate occasions he was removed from his mother's custody
Well, despite all that, he managed to get good grades.
Jj: So 4 years ago--
Why did he choose that day to leave?
Well, that's if he left by choice.
Well, the mom's boyfriend moved in a couple weeks prior.
Maybe he and gavin were bumping heads.
I mean, things might have even gotten physical
Rossi: Yeah, at one point mom admitted that she and prince charming
Had been out on a binge for a couple of days.
Which means gavin would have been left home alone
And I'm sure that wasn't the first time.
Maybe he just had enough.
This kid's from garfield park.
If he was left unsupervised from sunup to sundown,
Chances are he fell in with the wrong crowd.
Chicago has one of the largest gang populations,
Over 100,000 active members. Last year 61% of all homicides
Well, it makes sense. I mean, the kid runs away from home
And finds himself out on the street.
Then some knucklehead gangbangers come along,
Next thing you know, he's got the "family" that he never had.
Garcia, we need a list of active gangs
Operating in the area. Copy that.
We need to hit the ground running.
If this is some sort of mass gang initiation,
It could be the first of a series of attacks.
Detective mark reyes, chicago p.D. Thank you both for coming out.
I thought there, uh,
I thought there weren't any cameras.
Cheaper than installing the real thing.
In this neighborhood, you gotta put something
To deter would-be robbers.
According to witnesses,
The gunman...
Sat right over there.
Then without warning, he just stood up
And started firing.
Gavin had no criminal record,
Enters cool and collected and orders a meal.
Normally it takes time and practice
To build up to something like this.
Rarely does anything these punks do make sense.
Which makes me wonder why gavin chose this diner
For his first offense.
I mean, there's a police station
Just a few blocks away.
Not to mention, aren't gang initiations
Known for inciting violence against rival gangs?
True. And typically, these guys like to leave their marks.
There weren't any tags claiming responsibility.
Gangbangers are driven by money and power.
Gavin didn't seem to be driven by either.
Well, if it really had been about money,
Gavin would have entered the diner
And immediately gone to the register.
And if it had been about power,
He probably would have walked around,
Flashed his gun to maximize terror.
So if it wasn't gang related,
What was it?
That's a good question.
Single gunshot wound to the chest.
He died before paramedics arrived.
Still trying to determine what caused these burns on his temple.
Have you gotten back the toxicology results?
He was clean.
No drugs or alcohol.
Excuse me.
Was this everything?
Well, how many kids you know these days
The first thing a runaway does is pick up a disposable.
Most of the time we get street kids,
They'll be somewhat malnourished
Or have some type of correlating health issues.
He didn't show any signs of either.
It seems like whoever this kid was with
At least made sure he was fed properly.
There's multiple spinal fractures
On both arms.
When I took the x-rays, it was evident
That his fractures hadn't healed properly.
Typically you only see that in cases of abuse
With toddlers and young children,
Not someone gavin's age.
Well, whoever did this had to have literally
Were you able to determine if these injuries occurred
Before or after he was reported missing?
I'd say somewhere as early as 6 months ago.
That rules out the mom and boyfriend.
If they didn't cause them, who did?
Look, I don't know what good this is gonna do.
Now, I wrote everything up in my report.
Well, uh, sometimes our subconscious picks up details
Our conscious minds aren't aware of.
Can you close your eyes for me?
Now, I need you to take me back to the diner.
Can you see gavin?
Sitting on the other side of the diner.
Leah stopped to check on him.
Did you hear anything they said to each other?
They were sitting too far away.
As soon as she put the check down, that's when I heard the first shot.
[gunshot]
Aah!
Ok, now, I need you to focus on gavin
And stay with him.
[screaming]
The guy at the table, he tried to run.
The kid got him in the chest.
This woman, she was sitting at the counter.
She was just looking for a way out.
Is that when you took your shot?
I was next.
I'll never forget the look in that kid's eyes.
It was like he was ready to die.
They say the worst part about being a cop
Is watching these people die in front of you.
They were right.
A .9 beretta semiautomatic
With government markings.
These days you can buy almost anything off the streets.
Which is why I have my guys running serial numbers.
Hopefully we can come up with some type of match.
Chances are this weapon's made its way through a number of pawn shops.
The most important thing to find out now is where gavin got his hands on that.
I pulled this video footage from across the street
From the diner. I managed to get a partial plate off the car.
I'm running it now.
Garcia, can you pause it?
Rewind it a moment just after gavin steps out of the car.
You see that? The driver didn't wait around
For him to enter the diner before he drove off.
Well, maybe he sensed something was up.
I mean, what is something went wrong and the mission had to be aborted?
How would the driver let him know inside?
He couldn't even if he wanted to.
He knew that gavin wasn't planning on leaving the diner alive.
This was a suicide mission.
[indistinct chatter]
[tires screeching]
[people screaming]
What the hell's wrong with you?!
You could've killed somebody!
Get out of the vehicle right now!
Get the hell out of the car!
Do you hear me?
Get out of the car!
I know that look.
The wheels are turning.
I've seen this before.
We'd occasionally see this on pows in vietnam.
So someone held a gun to his head and repeatedly fired blanks.
That's incredibly risky, especially considering the margin of error
When you're holding the barrel of a gun to someone's temporal bone.
The discharge alone can cause the skull to shatter.
Which means not only did this person
Want to put the fear of god into gavin,
But he knew exactly how to do it without killing him.
This poor kid was tortured.
What if whoever did this wanted to make sure
If he got caught he'd never talk?
If this punk isn't gonna move on his own, I'll do it myself.
Get back in your car!
Sir, come on, let's go.
Get me a tow truck at the intersection
Of ashland and division.
I have a burgundy toyota,
Illinois plate number
4-victor-bravo hotel-sierra-2.
I was finally able to clean up that grainy mess.
Here is our mystery driver.
He can't be much older than gavin.
Reid: They're dressed exactly the same.
Which is why I ran the image through
And then I cross-referenced it with the statewide database.
Our driver is 17-year-old trevor madison from arlington heights.
Yeah. This is where it goes from wack to super wack
Trevor went missing less than 24 hours after gavin.
So there hasn't been any physical evidence linking the cases until now.
These kids aren't runaways. They were abducted.
We got a hit from the apb.
Trevor filled up at a gas station
Sounds like someone's thinking about skipping town.
He could have made it across state lines by now,
The kid has barricaded himself inside the car. He's at the intersection--
Evacuate the area.
Man: Dude, what's going on?
Radio: All units on site at ashland and division,
Evacuate immediately.
Repeat--evacuate immediately.
You guys, back up! Suspect may be armed with...
Back up--
The media's already running with the story.
They're calling it an act of terrorism.
We'll release a statement as soon as we confirm
Clayburn says the phones are ringing off the hook.
Got every precinct in town looking for answers.
You should reach out to neighboring jurisdictions,
Let them know we'll update them as soon as we learn more.
These guys have everybody on edge.
Well, until we catch them, we should all be on high alert.
The explosive used was highly sophisticated.
It was designed specifically for maximum damage.
That's why he stopped to get gas.
The more fuel, the bigger the boom.
How'd these kids get involved in domestic terrorism?
Whoever abducted gavin and trevor
Spent years programming them as soldiers.
When the time was right, they were released
It's more than likely that these two weren't the only ones.
It's possible we're dealing with a terrorist organization
We're basing our profile on his motivation.
By a preferential offender who targets prepubescent boys.
Our unsub is likely a male in his 40s
With some military or law enforcement training.
That provides enough privacy to hold his victims captive for several years.
Rossi: In that time he breaks these kids down
We believe they're suffering from an extreme case of stockholm syndrome.
Much like patty hearst, who came to view the sla as her new family
We believe he's attempting to instill this same feeling within his army.
He likely uses military torture techniques
To get his victims to see his enemies as their own.
Reid: He puts them through a rigorous and punishing military training regimen
In order to prepare them mentally and physically for his war.
Morgan: Once this happens, the physical threats stop
And the reprogramming begins.
He maintains this connection by bolstering them
With love and affection.
His connection to them is important.
It ensures once they're released,
They will not deviate from their orders.
His ultimate target has yet to be determined,
But it could be as broad as american citizens.
These attacks have been well orchestrated, methodical,
And extremely violent in order to maximize destruction and panic.
Hotch: Which is why we need to get ahead of him in order to prevent more bloodshed.
But in order to do that, we need to identify the source of his rage.
Who sent you?
I said...
Who the hell sent you?
[click]
How did I do this time?
Guys, I think I know why the unsub targeted gavin and trevor.
I have now connected 1, 2, 3, 4 missing kids to this unsub.
Walk with me through the darkness if you will.
Brandon rutherford and vincent gamble--
They disappeared within 24 hours of each other
6 months before gavin and trevor did,
And then their bodies were found two weeks later.
But he killed them, so it may not be the same unsub.
The m.E. Reports for both brandon and vincent
Were consistent with the type of torture gavin suffered,
These two probably rebelled against the unsub's programming,
Uh, yeah, that brings us to steven walker and daniel morrison.
When the were abducted, again, within 24 hours of each other,
And this happened two years after gavin and trevor disappeared.
Steven walker's body was found a year ago in a wooded area
Just outside the city, and his injuries were consistent
With the other boys'.
Rossi: All of these kids were high-risk targets.
Gavin and trevor,
They lived in gang territory.
Steven and daniel both came from single-parent homes.
His ruse could be as simple as showing them attention,
Something they may not have received at home.
There's something known as the magical age, between 9 and 12,
When a child's psyche is more malleable.
That could be why the unsub changed his victimology.
Like the child soldiers being recruited by the rebels in sudan,
They lack the physical and emotional maturity to resist their captors.
He realized that the younger that he went,
The easier they would be to control
Brandon was taken at 15. Maybe he was too old to respond
To the unsub's conditioning.
And daniel was 12 when he was abducted.
So there's a possibility he's still alive.
He's likely proven himself a good and cooperative soldier.
That submission may have earned him a degree of freedom.
It's possible daniel has access to a television, maybe even the internet.
Once these boys are programmed, they're probably hard to break.
Right now it's all we have.
I don't know if I can do this.
Look at all of them.
They're wrong. Danny is the victim here.
I can't imagine what you're going through.
If there is any chance that my baby is still alive...
Which is why we need your help in getting through to him.
Right now daniel is probably unaware of how much you love and miss him.
I need you to remind him that you are his family.
Ok?
They're ready.
Thank you.
There she is! Ms. Morrison!
Have you heard from daniel?
You saw daniel?
Can you tell us anything?
My name is lauren morrison.
I'm not very good at this.
But I, uh, would like to get a message
To my son daniel.
I'm...So sorry that I wasn't there
To protect you when you needed me the most.
If you're out there...
If you're listening to this...
Please, danny, I just want you to come home.
I just want you to come home.
Reporter: That was lauren morrison, whose missing son daniel
Is possibly connected to this recent wave of violence.
Residents are still being advised to remain vigilant
While a citywide manhunt is in progress.
For further information,
Dial 1-800-555-0199.
That's 1-8-- [turns off radio]
[ring]
Hello?
Daniel? Baby, is that you?
Danny?
He's calling from a disposable cell-- I got it!
I'm sending you the location now.
[chatter, laughter]
I got him. Northeast corner.
[shouting]
[siren]
Hands where I can see them!
Don't do anything stupid.
You don't want to do this.
Danny...Focus on me.
Hey. Just look at me.
I know you've been given your orders.
But I want you to think about your mother for a second.
All she wants is for her son to come home.
Daniel, she's been waiting on you for a long time.
Just do this for her.
Don't make her suffer any longer.
Give me the bag.
On your knees.
[handcuffs lock]
Reyes: Let's go. Up.
My name is derek morgan. I'm with the fbi.
Look, I know you've been through a lot these past couple of years,
But I need you to understand that everything that man told you is a lie.
My name is daniel james morrison.
I'm a soldier. 53699.
Listen to me, kid.
I need your help to find the person
Who is responsible for all of this.
My name is daniel james morrison.
No more innocent people should die I'm a soldier. 53699.
Because of this man's cause.
My name is daniel james morrison.
I'm a soldier.
53699!
Hotch: It's all part of the training.
I don't know, most serial numbers have at least 9 digits.
Which means it has some sort of special meaning to the unsub.
Maybe it's a military code of some sort?
Garcia already checked.
Came up empty.
He chose today for his attack.
And the only person who knows why isn't talking.
Maybe jj will have more luck.
I know this can't be easy for you,
But I need you to keep in mind
That daniel isn't the same kid.
Ok?
You look so different.
Your hair...
Those big blue eyes.
I miss you so much.
God, I wish your grandmother were here to see you.
She passed away a few months ago.
Your room's still the same.
I didn't change a thing.
I know how you hate for me to touch your stuff.
Max is doing good.
He's gotten older.
I know he misses the walks you used to take him on.
Oh, baby...
I'm so sorry.
This isn't your fault.
If--if I'd have just...
I'm sorry. I don't want to overwhelm you.
Um, I'm gonna be outside with agent jareau.
Reporter: With 12 confirmed deaths,
Police have finally been able to make an arrest
In connection with the recent string of deadly attacks.
Believe daniel morrison is linked to not only last night's shooting massacre
At a popular local diner, but also the car explosion
That rocked the downtown area earlier this morning.
The questions on everyone's mind: How could children
Be at the center of such tragedy?
We're going to be speaking to child psychologist marty walton--
All right, let's look at victimology again.
First attack, the diner. Victims across the board.
Second attack, car bombing. Same goal--take out as many victims as possible.
But on a much bigger scale. God knows how many people he would have killed.
What if it's not about the attack itself
Officer clayburn entered that diner just minutes before the shooting.
But the explosive was detonated just moments after the traffic cop radioed for help.
And as soon as daniel saw reyes...
His whole demeanor changed.
They're targeting chicago p.D.
They forced our hand.
Now, we're gonna have to teach them a lesson they'll never forget.
That there would be a cop in the diner at that exact moment?
Chicago has over 13,000 police officers.
That's roughly 60 per square mile.
There are two precincts within a 4-block radius of the diner.
My guess is it was only a matter of time before a cop walked in.
And if it was his mission, he was probably prepared
To wait all night if he had to.
It wasn't a coincidence the attack happened
Shortly after the night shift ended.
They learned the routines, planned ahead.
Well, that brings us back to square one.
The list of people that have problems
With law enforcement is a long one.
Blake: We're looking at everyone from organized crime to ex-cons.
Hotch: If it was an ex-con, the target would likely be more specific,
Guys, I think the 5-digit number daniel's reciting
Is a police badge number.
Run 53699 against a list of chicago p.D.
Running it as fast as bytes will carry.
53699...I got a hit!
53699 is the badge number to a former officer
Everything we've worked for all these years,
It's come to this moment.
Make me proud.
Garcia: Gulino was an air force sergeant.
He served two tours in iraq.
When he came home he joined the chicago p.D.
7 years ago today, he and his partner george scotman
Had their badges stripped
For brutally coercing confessions out of suspects.
Ohh!
A fellow rookie officer filed a report.
That led to an internal affairs investigation.
And that rookie cop who blew the whistle
Was none other than one detective mark reyes.
Hotch: All right, garcia, send us everything you've got
On gulino and the partner.
Gulino was defined by his badge,
And when he felt wronged by his own kind,
The love turned to hate.
Blake, go talk to reyes, see what you can find out.
The rest of us will go to gulino's residence.
Detective, can I speak with you for a moment?
Sure.
I need you to tell me everything you know
It says here that gulino's partner scotman died 4 years ago of cancer.
Brandon and vincent were abducted 4 weeks after scotman died.
Morgan: And today marks the seventh anniversary
Of when gulino was let go from the force.
Hey, has anyone seen peterson?
Officer: Yeah, I think he's down in evidence.
Jj: Ok, so he chose today to launch his attacks,
Make his big statement against the police force.
So it's only a matter of time before we find him.
I'm looking for detective mark reyes.
Officer: Attention, eyes up. We got a code 10.
I'm detective reyes.
Officer gulino has a message for you.
You don't want to do this.
Shoot me and this whole place goes up.
Everybody holster your weapons.
Holster your weapons.
My name's jennifer. What's your name?
My name is stephanie lawford. I'm a soldier.
53699.
Jj: I understand you have your orders,
But can we talk just a moment?
It's time for you to hear the words of a true american hero.
What kind of hero sends children to fight his battles?
This is directed at my former brothers-in-arms, the chicago police department,
Betrayed the very honor code you all swore to uphold....
A hero isn't someone who abuses their power and hurts innocent people.
Because of your reprehensible actions, my late partner,
The brave officer george scotman died...
Sweetie, you're just a number. As an unsung hero, without the honor he deserved.
I can assure you, our legacy will live on forever.
Everything we worked for in our careers had led me to this moment.
Now that you've had a taste of our righteous vengeance,
Be warned, this is just the beginning.
Suspect down!
Bomb still active!
Call the bomb squad!
Stay back. Stay back.
All right, thanks, garcia.
Apparently stephanie had been missing for a little over 6 years.
She's been with him the longest.
Maybe he thought having a maternal figure
Would help condition the boys faster.
That was hotch. They searched both locations for gulino. He's gone.
Stephanie was just a distraction to buy him some time.
He said it himself-- this is only the beginning.
Well, if he continues in military fashion,
He'll withdraw from the failed mission and regroup.
The question is, where's his foxhole?
"my late partner, the brave officer george scotman,
This is as much about his partner as it is about gulino.
Yeah, baby girl, send us the last known address
For gulino's partner, officer scotman.
Don't move.
Put your hands where I can see them.
[siren]
Put 'em up.
Are you all right?
Yeah.
Come on.
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say can and will be use against you
In a court of law.
You have the right to an attorney.
If you can't afford an attorney,
One will be provided to you by the court.
Do you understand these rights that I've just read you?
Come here.
There you go.
What's your name?
My name is cameron patterson.
I'm a soldier.
53699.
Is that what he told you to say?
Cameron, you don't have to say that ever again. Ok?
We're gonna take you to your mom and dad.
Jj: "the greater the power, the more dangerous the abuse."
Edmund burke.
You're right. You're right,
The least I could have done is call.
It--it won't happen again, I swear.
I love you, too.
[knock on door]
It's open.
[romantic music playing]
Wow.
Huh. Wow. Um...
Hey. We've only been dating a few months,
So I know I didn't miss an anniversary.
I just wanted to do something special for you.
How did you know I was going to be home?
Sit.
Penelope sent me a text
When you guys left chicago.
Oh, she did?
Mm-hmm.
And you did all of this for me?
Yes.
And...
I made you...
Whoa. This.
Which is why takeout will be here in 20 minutes.
I hope you like indian.
Anything is better than whatever that is.
[both laughing]
I know. It's kind of bad.
Ooh.
[both laughing]
How was your day? Did you save some lives?
Mm-hmm.
We both did.
Yeah, we did.
What do you got in mind for the next 20 minutes?
