1. In the criminal
justice system...Copy !req
2. sexually-based offensesCopy !req
3. are considered
especially heinous.Copy !req
4. In New York City,
the dedicated detectives...Copy !req
5. who investigate
these vicious felonies...Copy !req
6. are members of an elite squadCopy !req
7. known as
the Special Victims Unit.Copy !req
8. These are their stories.Copy !req
9. Come on, Annie.
Just one little drink.Copy !req
10. I can't.
I smell like French fries.Copy !req
11. I love French fries.Copy !req
12. I appreciate the offer, Butch,
but my feet are killing me.Copy !req
13. I just want to take a hot bath
and curl up with my People.Copy !req
14. Maybe next time. All
right, I'll hold you to it.Copy !req
15. Mañana.Copy !req
16. I love French fries.
How stupid.Copy !req
17. Annie?Copy !req
18. Back off!
Okay.Copy !req
19. Get off me!
Let him go!Copy !req
20. Hey, come back here!Copy !req
21. Stop!
Annie!Copy !req
22. Abductee's name is Annie Tassler.
A waitress at the diner over there.Copy !req
23. Why'd you bring us
in on a snatch job?Copy !req
24. Found this on the scene.Copy !req
25. Chloroform? Dropped it in the struggle.Copy !req
26. Took off in a green
four-by-four. Witnesses?Copy !req
27. Butch McGee,
a hash slinger at the diner...Copy !req
28. and a Good Samaritan
by the name of Marty Potter.Copy !req
29. They took their lumps
trying to stop him. Thanks.Copy !req
30. There's something
I'm missing?Copy !req
31. Last summer, a guy abducted
four women using the same M.O.Copy !req
32. Raped and tortured them.Copy !req
33. Left their bodies stacked in
a warehouse in Alphabet City.Copy !req
34. The Bowery Stalker?
One and the same.Copy !req
35. I haven't heard about that guy
in a long time.Copy !req
36. Not long enough.Copy !req
37. Butch, Marty?
Yeah. I'm Butch.Copy !req
38. What do you got for us?Copy !req
39. He pulled her
right off the street.Copy !req
40. Did you get
a good look at him?Copy !req
41. He's a big guy with a beard
and a baseball cap.Copy !req
42. but I never really
got a good look at his face.Copy !req
43. How do you
fit into all this?Copy !req
44. Saw the commotion,
tried to help.Copy !req
45. You have something to add?Copy !req
46. Yeah. He had a tattoo. A cat of
some sort on his right forearm.Copy !req
47. I saw it coming at me when
he shoved the gun in my face.Copy !req
48. If I put you with a sketch
artist, can you give us a picture?Copy !req
49. I can try.
Sure.Copy !req
50. We gotta get them in the bus.
Go.Copy !req
51. How long you think the
Stalker will keep her alive?Copy !req
52. Until he's finished with her.Copy !req
53. According to Munch, the abductor
fits the Stalker's M. O to a tee.Copy !req
54. He goes after petite women,
uses chloroform to subdue them...Copy !req
55. and then carts them off
in a dark four-by-four.Copy !req
56. How long has it been since
his last attack? Almost a year.Copy !req
57. Yeah. We thought he'd gone underground,
or maybe just left the area.Copy !req
58. You're late.Copy !req
59. I was up all night
interviewing witnesses.Copy !req
60. D.A. wants an update
on the Bowery Stalker.Copy !req
61. Can't wait for the report?Copy !req
62. She's made this case
a top priority.Copy !req
63. Any warrants, lab work,
anything you need.Copy !req
64. Why all the sudden attention?Copy !req
65. She knows how elusive he's been.
She thought you could use some help.Copy !req
66. Because I didn't nail him
last time? Come on, John.Copy !req
67. Nobody's blaming you. We're
all on the same team here.Copy !req
68. Then why did you start the
team meeting without me?Copy !req
69. We were just leaving.
No, stay.Copy !req
70. I want you and Olivia
to help with the canvas.Copy !req
71. It's my catch, Captain.
I got it covered.Copy !req
72. You're still the primary but that
doesn't mean you don't need backup.Copy !req
73. Now, the only agenda here is catching
this guy before he kills again.Copy !req
74. Got it?Copy !req
75. Got it. Good. Now where's your partner?Copy !req
76. He's with a couple of
witnesses and a sketch artist.Copy !req
77. While you're waiting,
why don't you fill Alex in?Copy !req
78. Mind if I get my morning
tea first? Not at all.Copy !req
79. About a year ago, Sarah Kimmel
stumbled into a bar on Avenue D...Copy !req
80. half naked, beaten, claiming
that a man with a beard...Copy !req
81. imprisoned her as his sex slave in
an abandoned warehouse on Broome.Copy !req
82. We raided it, found a makeshift
cell in the basement...Copy !req
83. stocked with sex toys and
various instruments of torture.Copy !req
84. And four mutilated bodies.Copy !req
85. Any trace evidence?Copy !req
86. A few partials and DNA, but nothing
our system could match it to.Copy !req
87. We staked the building out for a month.
No luck. The guy just disappeared.Copy !req
88. Until now.Copy !req
89. Must have found a new safe
house. Potentially, more victims.Copy !req
90. John.
Anything on the tattoo?Copy !req
91. Butch filled in a few details.
Ran it through PIMS and got a hit.Copy !req
92. Skel named Frank Taggart,
on parole for assault.Copy !req
93. Where?Copy !req
94. PO said he got a custodial job
at the Fish Market.Copy !req
95. How desperate does somebody gotta be
to take a gig in a place like this?Copy !req
96. Worked here when I was a kid.
Made good money, too.Copy !req
97. What'd you do
with all your money?Copy !req
98. You can't tell me women
wanted to get with you...Copy !req
99. after a day in a flower shop
like this.Copy !req
100. Two words: Aqua Velva.
Come again?Copy !req
101. Fishmonger's best friend.Copy !req
102. After a hot shower slather some
of that on. Smell like Vic Damone.Copy !req
103. Smell like a mackerel
with some cheap aftershave.Copy !req
104. Hey! Munch man!Copy !req
105. Olive! Hey!Copy !req
106. Olive?
Name's Olivetti.Copy !req
107. Okay. Fin.
All right.Copy !req
108. Even when we were kids, he looked
like a big, fat Olive. Ergo.Copy !req
109. Long time, no see.Copy !req
110. We're looking for a guy named
Frank Taggart. He still work here?Copy !req
111. Yeah. As little as possible.
Where we can find him?Copy !req
112. There.Copy !req
113. Frank Taggart?
We want to talk to you.Copy !req
114. Hey, you heard the man.Copy !req
115. Hold it right there.Copy !req
116. This was a new coat.
Two words: Aqua Velva.Copy !req
117. That's a hell of a tattoo
you got there, Frankie.Copy !req
118. It's an original.
Your design?Copy !req
119. Elmo's Tats on Eighth.
What the hell do you care?Copy !req
120. Where were you last night
between 11:00 and midnight?Copy !req
121. Rusty's Bar in the Alphabet.
Can you prove it?Copy !req
122. The barstool near the door has
a permanent imprint of my ass.Copy !req
123. Feel free to check it out.
Be the highlight of our day.Copy !req
124. Am I being charged with something here,
or are we just shooting the breeze?Copy !req
125. We got witnesses that place
you and your original tattoo...Copy !req
126. outside a diner on Canal Street grabbing
a girl, and pistol-whipping her friend.Copy !req
127. I was nowhere near the place.Copy !req
128. Just like you were nowhere
near your girlfriend's place...Copy !req
129. the night you beat
the crap out of her?Copy !req
130. That was a misunderstanding.Copy !req
131. You put your fist
right through her teeth.Copy !req
132. And I did my time. And I ain't
been near the bitch since.Copy !req
133. That's why you
grabbed the waitress?Copy !req
134. Feeling the need
for a little self-expression?Copy !req
135. I don't know what the hell
you're talking about.Copy !req
136. I didn't grab nobody, and anybody
who says otherwise is a liar.Copy !req
137. Bartender at Rusty's said
Taggart ducked out around 11:00...Copy !req
138. the night of the abduction.Copy !req
139. Gets him to the diner
with time to spare.Copy !req
140. What about the four-by-four?Copy !req
141. Nothing registered
to him.Copy !req
142. Doesn't mean
he didn't steal one.Copy !req
143. Get all the witnesses down here for
a line up, including Sarah Kimmel.Copy !req
144. It's been almost a year.Copy !req
145. He held her in that warehouse
for two days.Copy !req
146. I doubt she's gonna
forget his face.Copy !req
147. He messed her up
pretty bad, Captain.Copy !req
148. If we get the ID
off the other two.Copy !req
149. Then we'll get a court order for
his DNA to match to her assault.Copy !req
150. If not,
she's our insurance policy.Copy !req
151. Does one of them
have a tattoo?Copy !req
152. We need you to make the
identification without prejudice.Copy !req
153. It's the only thing I got a
good look at, besides the gun.Copy !req
154. Number 4.Copy !req
155. No, five.Copy !req
156. Which is it, Mr. Potter?Copy !req
157. Five. Definitely five.Copy !req
158. Thank you, Mr. Potter.Copy !req
159. Officer Peters
will be happy to know...Copy !req
160. he's just been identified
as the Bowery Stalker.Copy !req
161. I'm sorry, Detective. It
looks like it's up to Sarah.Copy !req
162. Is he really here?Copy !req
163. We have a suspect.
But we need a positive ID.Copy !req
164. I can't. He won't be able to see you.Copy !req
165. But I see him...Copy !req
166. every time I close my eyes.Copy !req
167. I leave my lights on at night, or I'll
see him staring at me from the shadows.Copy !req
168. He can't hurt you anymore.Copy !req
169. I'm 28.
I'm living on disability...Copy !req
170. because I can't leave my house
without falling apart.Copy !req
171. Don't tell me
that he can't hurt me.Copy !req
172. I wouldn't ask you to do this
unless I had to.Copy !req
173. But we think he's hurting
somebody else.Copy !req
174. Whenever you're ready,
Sarah.Copy !req
175. You see him, don't you?Copy !req
176. Detective.
Which one, Sarah? Which one?Copy !req
177. He's not there.
It's okay.Copy !req
178. It's all right.Copy !req
179. It's all right.Copy !req
180. Sarah.Copy !req
181. Thank you for the ride home.Copy !req
182. Damn!Copy !req
183. You didn't have a choice.Copy !req
184. I was sure we had him.
What the hell are we missing?Copy !req
185. I was just thinking. Taggart
said his tattoo was an original.Copy !req
186. Right. Elmo's Tats on Eighth.Copy !req
187. I wonder how many Elmo originals
are walking around Manhattan?Copy !req
188. Hell of a work of art.
If you say so.Copy !req
189. It ain't mine. Guy brought it in
last summer, asked me to do a tat.Copy !req
190. Liked my work so much, he
left me the sketch as a bonus.Copy !req
191. How many have you done
since then?Copy !req
192. Can count them on one hand.Copy !req
193. Most folks are into Goth
these days.Copy !req
194. You keep names and addresses?Copy !req
195. It's not exactly
that kind of business.Copy !req
196. But the ones who want that one
are hard to forget.Copy !req
197. Such as?Copy !req
198. An old dude who walked
his cat on a leash.Copy !req
199. A woman wrestler.Copy !req
200. A guy who smelled like rotten fish.
And the one that brought it in.Copy !req
201. What'd he look like?
Big fellow with a beard.Copy !req
202. He said the bobcat was a
platoon name in the service.Copy !req
203. You mind if we take
that sketch with us?Copy !req
204. Why not? It's not exactly
bringing in the foot traffic.Copy !req
205. I saturated the paper
with ninhydrin...Copy !req
206. which revealed
two distinct sets of prints.Copy !req
207. One matched to the shop owner,
the other was a John Doe.Copy !req
208. Damn.Copy !req
209. Until I ran it against
the alternate data banks.Copy !req
210. "Darryl R. Kern. Dishonorably
discharged from the Army in 1999."Copy !req
211. About the same time
the attacks started.Copy !req
212. How much you want to bet DMV
turns up a green four-by-four.Copy !req
213. And a home address.Copy !req
214. Right there.Copy !req
215. Darryl Kern? This is the NYPD.Copy !req
216. We have a warrant
to search the premises.Copy !req
217. If you don't open the door,
we'll open it for you.Copy !req
218. Take it down.Copy !req
219. Police! Let's go!
Go! Go!Copy !req
220. Cool cat.
Fin.Copy !req
221. Take a look at this.
E- Z Pass bill.Copy !req
222. This guy does some
serious traveling.Copy !req
223. And always to the same place.Copy !req
224. Kern's E-Z Pass statements show
periodic travel along the same route...Copy !req
225. dating back to last June.Copy !req
226. From Manhattan he goes across
the Triborough Bridge...Copy !req
227. onto the thruway,
across the Tappan Zee...Copy !req
228. north to Utica, where he exits
on to Route 12 North.Copy !req
229. Credit cards show him gassing
up his '92 Pathfinder...Copy !req
230. along Routes 12 and 11, all
the way up to Walden Falls...Copy !req
231. a pit stop of a town 20
miles northeast of Watertown.Copy !req
232. A few days later, he takes the
same route back to the city.Copy !req
233. Seven women went missing within
a day of each of these trips.Copy !req
234. You got a lot of unspoiled
wilderness up there.Copy !req
235. There's only one way
to find him.Copy !req
236. Munch, Fin, pack your bags.
You're going on a road trip.Copy !req
237. Where's Opie?
Probably gone fishing.Copy !req
238. Speaking of which, you look a
little green around the gills.Copy !req
239. Maybe it's because
riding with you...Copy !req
240. is like taking a four hour
spin on the Tilt-a-World.Copy !req
241. I told you to take the
Dramamine. I hate pills.Copy !req
242. So you'd rather puke.
I'm not gonna puke.Copy !req
243. But you could use a road course
on driving in hazardous conditions.Copy !req
244. I kept it on the road.
Barely.Copy !req
245. The locals been briefed?Copy !req
246. Yeah. Cragen took care of it.
He faxed them the whole file.Copy !req
247. Assuming they have
a fax machine in Mayberry.Copy !req
248. Chief, the detectives
from New York City are here.Copy !req
249. Welcome to Walden Falls.
John Munch.Copy !req
250. Odafin Tutuola.
Come again?Copy !req
251. Just call me Fin.
Fin. Got it.Copy !req
252. Get you a cup of coffee?
Soda pop? Something?Copy !req
253. We're fine.Copy !req
254. So, you think you've got
a fugitive hiding out up here?Copy !req
255. Cold-blooded serial killer and
rapist by the name of Darryl Kern.Copy !req
256. I never heard of him. I know
just about everybody in town.Copy !req
257. So if he's here,
he's keeping a low profile.Copy !req
258. Come on in, Cheryl.Copy !req
259. This is Detectives Munch and... Fin.Copy !req
260. Officer Cheryl Baxter.Copy !req
261. Whatever you need, Officer
Baxter is at your disposal.Copy !req
262. We'd like to start with
Smitty's Pump and Save.Copy !req
263. 'Cause that seems to be a
regular stop on Kern's itinerary.Copy !req
264. You want to settle in first,
or go now?Copy !req
265. The woman he grabbed might still
be alive. We can settle in later.Copy !req
266. Good luck. If you need anything
else, just give a holler.Copy !req
267. Thanks, Chief.
You betcha.Copy !req
268. Guy's from out of town.
Has a cabin up here.Copy !req
269. Know where?
No.Copy !req
270. But he likes to hunt, so I suppose
it's out on one of the county roads.Copy !req
271. Lots of folks
have hunting shacks out there.Copy !req
272. Was anyone with him?Copy !req
273. I think he might have a
lady friend. Is this her?Copy !req
274. Hard to tell.
You said he liked to hunt.Copy !req
275. He never really said so...Copy !req
276. but since he spends so much
time in Jordie's Guns and Ammo...Copy !req
277. I figured he was stocking up
for the season.Copy !req
278. Where's
Jordie's Guns and Ammo?Copy !req
279. Right over there.
Thank you.Copy !req
280. Yeah. That's Arnold Cokely.Copy !req
281. Cokely?
That's what I said.Copy !req
282. I heard he comes in here a lot.
Is there a law against that?Copy !req
283. No, but there is a law
against obstructing justice.Copy !req
284. Come on, Jordie.
They're okay.Copy !req
285. They're just trying
to do their jobs.Copy !req
286. What do you need?Copy !req
287. Did he mention anything
about a cabin?Copy !req
288. I think he said it was north of town.
Kept it pretty well stocked, too.Copy !req
289. With what?Copy !req
290. Rifles, ammo, provisions.
We carry a full line here.Copy !req
291. Do you mind if we take a look
at his paperwork?Copy !req
292. Yeah, I do mind.Copy !req
293. But I don't suppose there's
much I can do about it.Copy !req
294. Government's got its fingers
so far up everyone's ass...Copy !req
295. it's getting to be like
Russia around here.Copy !req
296. Russia's a democracy now.
My point exactly.Copy !req
297. I assume you checked his ID and
waited for his background to clear.Copy !req
298. Yeah. I followed the law. To
the letter, if not the spirit.Copy !req
299. We'll get this back to you.Copy !req
300. We computerized the county
records a few years ago.Copy !req
301. If either Kern or Cokely owns land
here, it'll show up on the tax rolls.Copy !req
302. Damn. How come we don't have
this kind of software?Copy !req
303. You could always
head down to the basement...Copy !req
304. and go through the big books if
that'd make you feel more at home.Copy !req
305. Just got off the phone
with New York.Copy !req
306. Benson called Missing Persons.Copy !req
307. Arnold Cokely and his wife Amanda went
missing from Tribeca five months ago.Copy !req
308. And since Cokely's ID was used in
a fraudulent firearms transaction...Copy !req
309. ATF is joining the party.Copy !req
310. That may not be so bad, considering all
the firepower Kern's been stockpiling.Copy !req
311. Sorry.Copy !req
312. No match for Kern or Cokely
in the system.Copy !req
313. She faxed a list of others that went
missing around the time of his other trips.Copy !req
314. Can you check on those, too?Copy !req
315. I'll scan the names into the computer,
have a printout in a few minutes.Copy !req
316. I still don't see why the city
couldn't spring for two rooms.Copy !req
317. Because they're cheap. The D.A.
wants to redecorate her office...Copy !req
318. with antiques and Berber rugs,
and we gotta beg for table scraps.Copy !req
319. In Narcotics we always got
our own rooms.Copy !req
320. Sometimes entire apartments.Copy !req
321. How's that?
Undercover.Copy !req
322. Gotta create entirely
new identities.Copy !req
323. You know, apartments, bank
accounts, the whole works.Copy !req
324. One time I was under for seven weeks.
Had a nice little duplex in The Village.Copy !req
325. After we bust the dope ring,
I gotta move back...Copy !req
326. to my little cracker box
one-bedroom in Brooklyn.Copy !req
327. First week home, I kept
bumping into my own furniture.Copy !req
328. So this place must make
you feel right at home.Copy !req
329. Not exactly. I got a nice
entertainment system...Copy !req
330. surround sound
and a widescreen TV.Copy !req
331. Eight months of the cold
shoulder, now I can't shut you up.Copy !req
332. So why'd you leave Narcotics?Copy !req
333. My partner took a bullet
that was meant for me.Copy !req
334. Sort of took
all the fun out of it.Copy !req
335. Why'd you leave Homicide?Copy !req
336. I came back from Baltimore
after my last marriage broke up.Copy !req
337. The only opening
in my bracket was SVU.Copy !req
338. Seen enough dead bodies, figured
the change would do me good.Copy !req
339. Little did I know, it's the living
victims that rip your guts out.Copy !req
340. That mine or yours?
It's yours.Copy !req
341. Where the hell did I...Copy !req
342. Munch. Hey, Elliott.Copy !req
343. Blueprints?Copy !req
344. Yeah. We're on it.Copy !req
345. Where's the phone book?
Right here.Copy !req
346. I used it to order the
pizza. More like a wallet.Copy !req
347. Here it is.
What?Copy !req
348. They've been combing
through Kern's stuff...Copy !req
349. found blueprints for a bomb shelter
drawn up by a contractor in Walden Falls.Copy !req
350. Cheryl? John Munch.Copy !req
351. Do you know the owner of
McCartney Lumber and Cement?Copy !req
352. Could you have him
meet us at the station?Copy !req
353. We caught a break in the case.
See you in 20.Copy !req
354. This is a federal matter.
And this is my office.Copy !req
355. Play by my rules or get out.
You're in over your head.Copy !req
356. This man has enough firepower
to start World War III.Copy !req
357. Somebody's blowing enough hot
air to refloat the Hindenburg.Copy !req
358. Who the hell are you?Copy !req
359. Det. John Munch, NYPD.
Who the hell are you?Copy !req
360. Gus Stone,
Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.Copy !req
361. Mr. Stone, why don't you take
your cowboys and step aside...Copy !req
362. and let the police
do their work?Copy !req
363. I have a federal warrant
for Darryl Kern's arrest.Copy !req
364. And I have someone
who could help find him...Copy !req
365. before he kills another
innocent woman. Who trumps who?Copy !req
366. Here they are.Copy !req
367. Mr. McCartney, do you
recognize these blueprints?Copy !req
368. Sure do. Guy came in last June,
asking us to build him a bunker.Copy !req
369. For what?Copy !req
370. Said he was getting ready for
Armageddon and the race wars.Copy !req
371. I don't subscribe to that point of view,
but his money's as green as anyone's.Copy !req
372. Drew up the plans
to his specifications.Copy !req
373. An underground bunker fortified
with 12-inch cement blocks.Copy !req
374. You built it?
Sure did.Copy !req
375. Where?Copy !req
376. Tract of land about 10 miles
out, just off County Road 26.Copy !req
377. Already had
a small cabin on it.Copy !req
378. I can have 10 men here, deputized,
ready to go within an hour.Copy !req
379. I've got five more
on the way from Watertown.Copy !req
380. What are we waiting for?Copy !req
381. Go.Copy !req
382. ATF.
Police!Copy !req
383. Nothing?
Clear.Copy !req
384. Where the hell is he?
Detectives!Copy !req
385. We got something here.Copy !req
386. Sorry, Annie.Copy !req
387. John?Copy !req
388. Bastard tortured her.Copy !req
389. The frozen ground's
slowing us down...Copy !req
390. but we've already uncovered 15
bodies buried in shallow graves.Copy !req
391. Three kids.Copy !req
392. Why kids?Copy !req
393. I've got my men
scouring the woods...Copy !req
394. but by the looks
of those tire tracks...Copy !req
395. I'd say Kern pulled out a
good hour before we got here.Copy !req
396. Somebody's tipped him off.Copy !req
397. I could've lived an entire lifetime
without seeing something like this.Copy !req
398. How bad?Copy !req
399. Contusions, broken bones,
flesh pulped and bruised.Copy !req
400. Mutilation pattern suggests she'd
been penetrated by foreign objects...Copy !req
401. possibly a knife.Copy !req
402. All that before he blew
her face off with a. 44.Copy !req
403. Detective? Found something in the
cabin you might want to take a look at.Copy !req
404. It's an operation manual of some
sort. Last entry dated yesterday.Copy !req
405. "Position compromised.Copy !req
406. "As long as the Worm stays in the
Apple, possibility of further erosion.Copy !req
407. "Will rendezvous at extraction
point. Operation terminated. "Copy !req
408. He definitely
has an accomplice.Copy !req
409. Serial killers
tend to be loners.Copy !req
410. But when they do pair off, the
stronger personality dominates.Copy !req
411. We read a single perp because
his partner lives in his shadow.Copy !req
412. He must have left in one
big hurry to forget this.Copy !req
413. He's slipping.Copy !req
414. It says they're going
to rendezvous.Copy !req
415. The Worm's in the Apple.
The Big Apple.Copy !req
416. He's heading back to the city.Copy !req
417. It's all written
in this pseudo-military code.Copy !req
418. He calls his accomplice the Worm
and refers to himself as the Eagle.Copy !req
419. And lists targets and ops
dating back three years.Copy !req
420. I assume the targets
are the victims.Copy !req
421. And the ops...
Their torture and execution.Copy !req
422. He's killed entire families
for their credit cards and ID.Copy !req
423. He even killed
one guy for his cabin.Copy !req
424. A plumber from Brooklyn
named Ernest Dillman.Copy !req
425. Now that the operation's
gone south...Copy !req
426. he's come home to scoop up his
accomplice and hit the road.Copy !req
427. Any idea
who this accomplice is?Copy !req
428. We figure he's an Army buddy since they
communicate using this military jargon.Copy !req
429. Kern was stationed at Fort Dix
according to his discharge papers.Copy !req
430. I know somebody at the 15
close to the CO.Copy !req
431. Let me see
if I can hook you up.Copy !req
432. It's an elite group trained for
specialized tactical operations.Copy !req
433. Kern's outfit?
Mine, in the Gulf War.Copy !req
434. The closest Kern ever got to an
operation of any significance...Copy !req
435. was running to the cellar
for a batch of potatoes.Copy !req
436. He was a cook?Copy !req
437. He was trained
as a weapons specialist...Copy !req
438. but he spent
so much time in KP...Copy !req
439. we reassigned him to the
kitchen on a permanent basis.Copy !req
440. How'd he take to that?
He didn't.Copy !req
441. Kern had a problem
with authority...Copy !req
442. which is why he had a
problem with the Army.Copy !req
443. Why'd he sign up?Copy !req
444. He suffered under the delusion
we enjoy killing things.Copy !req
445. That attitude eventually
earned him his discharge.Copy !req
446. Can you be
a little more specific?Copy !req
447. We had this squirrel, used
to hang out behind the mess.Copy !req
448. Cooks would feed him
table scraps, nuts.Copy !req
449. One day,
the dinner shift arrived...Copy !req
450. to find Kern dumping strange
meat into the stew pot.Copy !req
451. When they asked
what the hell he was doing...Copy !req
452. he pointed out the window to a squirrel
hide laid out to dry in the bushes.Copy !req
453. Said he needed a new hat.Copy !req
454. One of the cooks jumped him. Kern
threatened him with a butcher knife.Copy !req
455. He wound up in the brig, where
he underwent psych testing.Copy !req
456. He was diagnosed with anti-social
personality disorder...Copy !req
457. and pronounced unfit for duty.Copy !req
458. So you kicked him out of the Army
and unleashed him on the rest of us.Copy !req
459. He did his time. We didn't
have anything to hold him on.Copy !req
460. Did he have any friends,
anyone he hung with?Copy !req
461. He pretty much stayed
to himself...Copy !req
462. except for a guy who made dry
goods deliveries to the mess.Copy !req
463. They seemed to be
on the same wavelength.Copy !req
464. Can we talk to this guy?Copy !req
465. He doesn't deliver here anymore, but I
could give you the name of the company.Copy !req
466. Some outfit out of Brooklyn.Copy !req
467. That's Marvin.
Marvin who?Copy !req
468. Marvin Posey.
He's one of my best guys.Copy !req
469. He's been with
the company eight years.Copy !req
470. He took the job the same
day Clinton took office.Copy !req
471. You ever fire the guy, you
better nail down the furniture.Copy !req
472. Where can we find Marvin?Copy !req
473. He ain't working today. He's
on National Guard maneuvers.Copy !req
474. Marvin's a weekend warrior?
You bet.Copy !req
475. Did anybody notice
today's Thursday?Copy !req
476. Sometimes the maneuvers
go all week.Copy !req
477. I don't mind. At least he's
doing his patriotic duty.Copy !req
478. Which is more than I can say for
half the lazy slackers around here.Copy !req
479. Excuse me.Copy !req
480. Hey, numb nuts! You wanna
smoke that whole pack...Copy !req
481. or you think you might make
your run sometime today?Copy !req
482. How often does Marvin
go on these maneuvers?Copy !req
483. Once a month. Sometimes
less, sometimes more.Copy !req
484. When did he leave this time?
Couple of days ago.Copy !req
485. I expect him back Monday,
if you wanna talk to him.Copy !req
486. No, we need to see him before
that. Do you have a home address?Copy !req
487. Sure. But he ain't there.Copy !req
488. He's out in the wilderness
somewhere practicing survival skills.Copy !req
489. We're gonna need
his address for our files.Copy !req
490. He's not in trouble, is he?Copy !req
491. In position, Detective.Copy !req
492. Stand by.Copy !req
493. Marvin Posey. NYPD. Open up.
We want to talk to you.Copy !req
494. Come on, Marvin!Copy !req
495. Hello. Marvin's not here.Copy !req
496. Where is he?
He left this morning.Copy !req
497. Are you friends of his?Copy !req
498. I hope you like orange pekoe.Copy !req
499. Marvin was going to pick up
some Earl Grey from the store...Copy !req
500. when he got called away.Copy !req
501. Let me help you
with that.Copy !req
502. Friends stop by so seldom.Copy !req
503. I know he'll be disappointed
he missed you.Copy !req
504. You Marvin's mother?Copy !req
505. No, I'm his Aunt Mary.Copy !req
506. His mother died
when he was just a child.Copy !req
507. I'm sorry.Copy !req
508. His father beat his mother
to death with an iron.Copy !req
509. He didn't like the way
she did his shirts.Copy !req
510. Milk with your tea?
No, thank you.Copy !req
511. It's so hard on a child
to lose a parent.Copy !req
512. That's why I was determined to
give Marvin all the love I could.Copy !req
513. Raised him like my own.Copy !req
514. It wasn't easy,
but we got through.Copy !req
515. He's always been a loving boy.Copy !req
516. Ms...
Call me Aunt Mary.Copy !req
517. Aunt Mary, it's very important
that we get in touch with Marvin.Copy !req
518. Do you know where he
might be? It's a secret.Copy !req
519. He's with the Green Berets.Copy !req
520. That's his scrapbook,
right there.Copy !req
521. You mind?
No, please.Copy !req
522. Even when he hurt his leg
on the last mission...Copy !req
523. he just turned right around
and volunteered again.Copy !req
524. How can we get
in touch with him?Copy !req
525. He usually takes his cell
phone, in case of an emergency.Copy !req
526. That's Marvin
with his friend Darryl.Copy !req
527. Do you know Darryl, too?Copy !req
528. You could say that.Copy !req
529. Damn.Copy !req
530. We had him. In our own house.Copy !req
531. He wasn't trying to stop the
four-by-four. He was trying to get in.Copy !req
532. How could we be so stupid?Copy !req
533. We weren't the only ones. Even
Aunt Mary thinks he's a hero.Copy !req
534. Aunt Mary's a few tea bags shy
of a full pot.Copy !req
535. Damn it! I should've seen it the minute
he picked Peters out of the line up.Copy !req
536. Get an APB out on Marvin and his
Aunt Mary's Chrysler New Yorker.Copy !req
537. Yeah. Got it.Copy !req
538. State Police
found Kern's Pathfinder...Copy !req
539. at a shopping center
outside of Walden Falls.Copy !req
540. They said a bald, clean-shaven
man got out of it...Copy !req
541. carjacked a mother and her kid
in a blue Taurus.Copy !req
542. When?
This morning.Copy !req
543. What direction were they headed? North.Copy !req
544. Canada. Damn.Copy !req
545. So Marty Potter
is Marvin Posey.Copy !req
546. No wonder Kern knew we were on his tail.
His accomplice had the inside scoop.Copy !req
547. The question is,
where is he now?Copy !req
548. State Police says Kern was
alone when he jacked that Taurus.Copy !req
549. A new look, car, traveling companions,
it's easy to slip through the perimeter.Copy !req
550. Maybe even cross the border.Copy !req
551. If he has, those hostages
don't have much shelf life.Copy !req
552. Got the LUDS
on Marvin's cell phone.Copy !req
553. He received a call from Annie Tassler's
cell the morning after the abduction.Copy !req
554. Kern.Copy !req
555. And they've been exchanging calls
at regular intervals ever since.Copy !req
556. Marvin didn't leave
until this morning.Copy !req
557. If they're meeting up on the road, we
could trace them through cell sites.Copy !req
558. Call the service provider.
Get a trap on both numbers.Copy !req
559. The two blips represent calls
exchanged between the two cell phones...Copy !req
560. over the past two days.Copy !req
561. Now, I've connected the blips
of each phone to demonstrate...Copy !req
562. how the signal has been passed
from one cell site to the next...Copy !req
563. which basically represents
their respective travel routes.Copy !req
564. Looks like Marvin's
hauling ass.Copy !req
565. Yeah. And Kern's
been hunkering down.Copy !req
566. Cell phones converge in a cell
site outside Fisher's Landing.Copy !req
567. Just this side
of the Canadian border.Copy !req
568. Give me the State Police. Pack
the Dramamine. We're heading north.Copy !req
569. We spotted a blue Taurus
and a Chrysler New Yorker...Copy !req
570. in the driveway of a farmhouse
about a half mile down the road.Copy !req
571. Anybody see
the mother and kid?Copy !req
572. No. We suspect they're
holed up inside the house.Copy !req
573. There's a stand of trees
lining the road.Copy !req
574. Can't see us
until we're in the driveway.Copy !req
575. Might be able
to surprise them.Copy !req
576. It's your show.
All right. Let's move out.Copy !req
577. ATF!
Go!Copy !req
578. God.Copy !req
579. You son of a bitch!Copy !req
580. He's playing us like fools.Copy !req
581. He still needs the mother
and kid. But for how long?Copy !req
582. We've got an APB out
on the farmer's pickup.Copy !req
583. Customs and Canadians
are on alert. We'll get him.Copy !req
584. How many more die
before we do?Copy !req
585. He's running out of steam.
So am I.Copy !req
586. Guess what? That was Cragen.Copy !req
587. Canadians just arrested Kern
for shoplifting...Copy !req
588. outside an auto parts store in
Mallorytown, just across the border.Copy !req
589. Shoplifting?Copy !req
590. The farmer's truck
had a bad alternator.Copy !req
591. What about...
Mom and kid are fine.Copy !req
592. They found them tied up
in the back of the truck.Copy !req
593. Provincial Police are holding Kern
until we get there, on Cragen's request.Copy !req
594. Where is he?Copy !req
595. In a holding cell.
What are you doing here?Copy !req
596. Serving the extradition warrant,
which Kern's fighting, naturally.Copy !req
597. On what grounds?Copy !req
598. Serial rape and murder make book
over shoplifting, don't they?Copy !req
599. We still have to make our
argument in Canadian courts.Copy !req
600. How are the hostages?Copy !req
601. Aside from mild exposure,
they're fine. At least physically.Copy !req
602. I'd like to talk to them.Copy !req
603. Ms. Michaelson?Copy !req
604. I'm Det. Munch of the NYPD.
This is Det. Tutuola...Copy !req
605. and Assistant District
Attorney Alexandra Cabot.Copy !req
606. How long will this take?Copy !req
607. I want to be in the hospital
when my daughter wakes up.Copy !req
608. Just a few questions.Copy !req
609. I told the other police
everything I know.Copy !req
610. The Canadians have their own
charges they want to investigate.Copy !req
611. We need to ask you about the
time you spent with Kern...Copy !req
612. before you crossed the border.Copy !req
613. Did he have a weapon when he
abducted you and your daughter?Copy !req
614. A knife.Copy !req
615. He pressed it against my ribs
and told me to move over.Copy !req
616. Where was your daughter?Copy !req
617. In the backseat.
He threatened to kill her.Copy !req
618. What happened
when you got to the farmhouse?Copy !req
619. He held the knife
to my back...Copy !req
620. and he led me
to the front door.Copy !req
621. An old woman answered and
he asked her for directions.Copy !req
622. When she turned her back...Copy !req
623. he cut her throat.Copy !req
624. What about her husband?Copy !req
625. He came running
from the kitchen.Copy !req
626. Before he could say a word,
Kern cut his throat, too.Copy !req
627. Was his buddy there?Copy !req
628. No. He came later.Copy !req
629. Kern said he had something
to show him in the barn.Copy !req
630. I heard the most
horrific screams.Copy !req
631. Kern came out
covered in blood.Copy !req
632. He went into the house,
changed his clothes...Copy !req
633. and made us get into the farmer's
pickup like nothing had ever happened.Copy !req
634. He said we were going
to Canada and...Copy !req
635. Please, tell me.Copy !req
636. He said he was going to kill me and
Jenny just like the rest of them.Copy !req
637. He said the police were so
stupid, they'd never find us.Copy !req
638. Marvin was alive
when Kern gutted him.Copy !req
639. He might be laying the
groundwork for an insanity plea.Copy !req
640. He'll never admit to insanity.
We've got the journal...Copy !req
641. and we're cross-matching
DNA samples from the bunker.Copy !req
642. But a confession would really strengthen
our argument at the extradition hearing.Copy !req
643. Tell the Provincials
I want to be alone with him.Copy !req
644. Shoplifting.Copy !req
645. Kind of an undignified end to
such an ambitious operation.Copy !req
646. Still, it was masterful.Copy !req
647. You had us stumped
for over a year, Darryl.Copy !req
648. Your operations manual...Copy !req
649. reads like a textbook in
tactics and resource management.Copy !req
650. I've offered it to the curriculum
committee at the Academy.Copy !req
651. I think the next generation of
cops can learn a lot from you.Copy !req
652. But these academics.Copy !req
653. They just want to focus
on your mistakes.Copy !req
654. What mistakes?Copy !req
655. Sarah Kimmel, for example.Copy !req
656. Who?Copy !req
657. The woman who escaped from the
warehouse. Your first mistake.Copy !req
658. That was Marvin's fault.Copy !req
659. I had to leave to go to work.Copy !req
660. Marvin swore he'd be there
in no more than five minutes.Copy !req
661. Half hour later, I get a panic call
saying that the target had disappeared.Copy !req
662. I should've eliminated
him then. Why didn't you?Copy !req
663. He served a purpose.Copy !req
664. He hooked me up with Ernie.
The guy who owns the cabin?Copy !req
665. He was a friend of Marvin's.Copy !req
666. Used to yak that it was this perfect
refuge from the liberal hordes.Copy !req
667. Got him to take me up there
during hunting season.Copy !req
668. That's when I got the idea.Copy !req
669. He never saw it coming,
did he?Copy !req
670. He was taking a leak
in the bushes.Copy !req
671. I just walked up behind him,
drew the blade across his throat.Copy !req
672. One clean slice.Copy !req
673. And Shangri-la was yours.Copy !req
674. So Ernie
was just means to an end.Copy !req
675. The trick was using the credit
cards and IDs in different places...Copy !req
676. so that no one
could trace him.Copy !req
677. Same story with the Cokelys?Copy !req
678. Met him in a bar
in Walden Falls.Copy !req
679. Said he was passing through
from Syracuse.Copy !req
680. Only problem was
he had his wife with him.Copy !req
681. So she had to go, too.Copy !req
682. Not right away,
but after a few days.Copy !req
683. Why the bunker?Copy !req
684. Didn't like to eat
where I worked.Copy !req
685. And it was more secure.Copy !req
686. How many?Copy !req
687. We found 18 of them.Copy !req
688. Oh, there's more.Copy !req
689. How many?Copy !req
690. That would be telling.Copy !req
691. You pathetic piece of...Copy !req
692. Come on, Detective. You
should be used to this by now.Copy !req
693. I've been one step ahead of you
since you stormed the warehouse.Copy !req
694. Every time I grabbed another
target, I thought about you.Copy !req
695. And when they were screaming
for mercy...Copy !req
696. I had a little laugh
at your expense...Copy !req
697. like I'm having a little laugh right
now, because you think you've won.Copy !req
698. I'm gonna have my own little laugh when
I watch them stick the needle in your arm.Copy !req
699. Canada won't extradite on capital offenses
unless you waive the death penalty.Copy !req
700. Or maybe they didn't teach you
that at the Academy.Copy !req
701. He says they won't extradite
on capital offenses?Copy !req
702. The Canadian Supreme Court tightened
their restrictions last year.Copy !req
703. So he can flip us off
from Canadian prison?Copy !req
704. He can make the argument.
That doesn't mean he'll win.Copy !req
705. He saves his neck, he wins.Copy !req
706. Look, I did not come all the way
up here to go home empty-handed.Copy !req
707. John, you did your job.
Now let me do mine.Copy !req
708. The Supreme Court
was unequivocal...Copy !req
709. in its 90 ruling...Copy !req
710. under the Charter of Rights and
Freedoms of the Canadian constitution...Copy !req
711. concerning the matter of
extradition on capital offenses.Copy !req
712. Mr. Picard,
aren't you concerned...Copy !req
713. that Canada might become
a safe haven for criminals...Copy !req
714. seeking to use our constitution
as a shield from prosecution?Copy !req
715. I prefer not to speculate
on hypothetical situations...Copy !req
716. which may or may not result
from the High Court's ruling.Copy !req
717. I can only ask this court to
interpret the law as written.Copy !req
718. Madam Prosecutor?Copy !req
719. While I do respect
the High Court's rulings...Copy !req
720. in the matter of constitutional
rights and protections...Copy !req
721. I would submit this ruling
does not apply in the case...Copy !req
722. for which the State of
New York seeks extradition.Copy !req
723. Is not murder
with special circumstances...Copy !req
724. attached a capital offense
under New York law?Copy !req
725. It is, Your Honor.Copy !req
726. However, the People are not seeking
extradition on the capital offense.Copy !req
727. We are here on the sole charge
of possession of stolen property.Copy !req
728. Your Honor, this is a blatant attempt
to circumvent the laws of this land.Copy !req
729. Since the value of the stolen
automobile exceeds $5,000...Copy !req
730. it is my understanding, this qualifies
for extradition under Canadian law.Copy !req
731. Your petition cited multiple
charges of murder...Copy !req
732. and two counts of kidnapping.Copy !req
733. It is true that Mr. Kern
and his accomplice...Copy !req
734. brutally raped, tortured, and maimed
their subjects before killing them.Copy !req
735. However, we have amended our petition
to reflect only the lesser offense.Copy !req
736. Your Honor,
this is a cynical ploy.Copy !req
737. We all know that once Mr.
Kern crosses the border...Copy !req
738. he will be charged
with the capital crimes.Copy !req
739. Perhaps, Mr. Picard.Copy !req
740. But this court prefers not to
speculate on hypothetical situations...Copy !req
741. which may or may not result
from its ruling.Copy !req
742. Now, the petition
for extradition is granted.Copy !req
743. Detectives, take custody
of the prisoner.Copy !req
744. Darryl Kern, you are under arrest
for the murders of Ernest Dillman...Copy !req
745. Arnold and Amanda Cokely,
and Annie Tassler.Copy !req
746. Welcome home, Darryl.Copy !req
747. Thanks.Copy !req
748. I just wanted to tell you, you
can turn your lights out tonight.Copy !req
