So, I heard you caught a rape case where the victim got burned up?
Nurse from Chicago Med. Raped, beaten, perp torched the joint.
Fire department! Call out!
Help me.
Third degree burns and severe smoke inhalation.
If you're looking to kill somebody, toxic smoke will do the job fast.
BENSON: Okay, so, confirmed, the victim is a nurse, 5' 5",
brown hair, brown eyes and she was raped.
Think he did it before?
Unfortunately,
I know he has.
(SIGHING)
Hey.
Oh. Thank you.
So?
Third degree burns over 75 percent of her body.
The damage goes through to the muscle. Nerves are completely gone.
The only good news right now is that she probably can't feel anything.
Okay. Any chance she'll pull through?
Even if we could hold off the infection, and we'll do our best...
Can she talk?
She is coherent. At the moment.
So she can talk?
Look we're here to find out who did this. So I think if she was able,
she'd want to talk to us.
Stay here.
Victim's sister is on her way in.
All right, have Olinsky and Atwater talk to her, okay?
Hey.
How's Victoria? Any word?
I saw the crime scene. It can't be good.
What happened?
Fire Department found her in a burning building. She's got burns all over her body.
Her skull was fractured and she'd been sexually assaulted.
This is just horrible. She's the nicest person.
You know her?
Just in passing.
She's a nurse in maternity.
Any idea who did it?
Would I be standing here if I did?
Keep it short. BENSON: Okay.
VOIGHT: Thanks.
(LIFE SUPPORT MACHINE BEEPING)
Victoria?
Victoria, I'm Sergeant Benson.
I'm so sorry.
Do you remember anything about the man who did this to you?
I was... Back of my building.
Taking out the trash.
Okay.
Out of the corner of my eye...
Man... Hospital scrubs... Walking up behind me.
I turned.
I woke up,
(CRYING) I was in my apartment and the wall was on fire.
It's okay.
Did you see his face?
No.
He was white.
A little under 6'.
Okay.
(MACHINES BEEPING) DOCTOR: All right. That's it, that's it, out of the way!
Call the code!
(VICTORIA STRUGGLING TO BREATHE)
JANINE: I'm so sorry. (SNIFFLING)
Here. Sit here.
OLINSKY: We are, too. I mean, it's hard to believe, something like this happening.
Victoria was supposed to come over tonight.
Well, was she seeing anyone?
No.
Was there anybody in Victoria's life that you think was aggressive, at work, or...
No. I mean, that would do this?
I'm sorry, I just can't imagine what she went through.
All that pain. I just can't...
Hey, it's okay.
(SOBBING)
BENSON: So the first victim, Alice Whitlock, raped and murdered.
Cause of death was blunt force trauma to the back of the skull. Blunt force trauma.
She was a nurse at Columbia Presbyterian.
Second vic, Lisa Hoffman. She was raped and killed in the same fashion as Whitlock
but she was found completely burned in her own car along the Harlem River.
Green nail polish was applied to both of these victims at some point during the crime.
Debra McCulloch, uh, was last seen exiting a bar on 53rd and 3rd.
She was a nurse at Mount Sinai.
So, all three victims in New York, 2004. Witnesses were consistent.
They all saw a man in medical clothing and his arm in a sling approaching these women.
The victim from here, she have green nail polish on?
Don't know yet.
Yeah. Lab tech's gonna check when the doctor gives the okay.
But there's no guarantees we'll find out either way. Her hands were severely burned,
she was trying to cover her face.
Also there was no DNA at either of the New York crime scenes.
Are there any theories why he stopped for 10 years?
Sadly, we don't know that he has.
So our suspect is a male, white, 5' 9", approximately 40 years old.
He's either in the medical field or, obviously, posing as somebody who is.
There's nothing physically distinctive about him. All the witnesses, again, were
consistent when they described him.
They said that he was average-looking and normal.
These details of the crimes have gone out to every news and radio station in town.
We check city-wide and in the suburbs on missile x-cards
and information reports on any
attempted abductions or suspicious calls.
LINDSAY: I'm gonna have Mouse triangulate the cell towers on the girl's phone
and check all social media. We can find out if she electronically
checked in anywhere during the day.
I'll check the sex offender files and recently released parolees.
Good.
That was Olinsky at Chicago Med.
Victoria didn't make it.
VOIGHT: Let's get to work.
Ripped By mstoll
We'll get him. Yeah. Yeah, we will.
Please hold. 21st District, Sergeant Platt.
Yep. Mind holding?
I need to put you on hold.
Well, I'm putting you on hold.
Start taking statements. All these people think they've seen this guy.
Work left to right.
Our left or your left?
Both. Neither. Forget I said anything.
Just take their statements.
Hey, I'm so sorry I'm late. Lindsay's 30th has me totally scrambled.
Can you hold these behind the desk for me?
Everyone in the metro area thinks they saw this guy.
Whatever I can do to help.
The hotline rings on your phone.
Since you were late, I had it transferred down here.
So plant your ass upstairs and start taking notes.
You got it. Thank you!
Okay, guys, cross match any details from the Chicago case with ours.
And I'm gonna need all of our files electronically scanned and sent, like yesterday.
We're on it.
Why don't you bring 'em out yourself?
We could use all the help we can get.
Hey, we're happy to do it.
Okay, guys, then get on the next flight.
Uh, bring the files. Have Rollins and Carisi re-open the investigation, from there.
Got it. BENSON: Great.
Thanks, guys. See you soon.
So, he's dressed as a doctor. Arm in a sling. Hanging out around the building
just down the block.
It's five days ago. Anything? No?
Offender balled up newspaper and shredded rubber, piled it near the victim.
Then he left a trail of the same combo to the back door.
Used lighter fluid as an accelerant.
Lit it, then left out the back door.
Some burning rubber dropped down a coax cable hole in the floor, right here,
which is why we initially thought it started downstairs.
HALSTEAD: Okay, so the offender drags the victim
up the back staircase into the bedroom.
There's no way we're pulling any DNA out of here.
No.
I heard whoever did this has done it before?
Yeah, it's looking like it.
(EXHALES SHARPLY)
Check it out.
It's nail polish.
What color did the offender use on the victims?
Green.
Well, now there's no doubt.
All right, listen, ask around. If anybody seen anything like that,
please give 21st District a call. We appreciate it. Thank you.
All right, listen, I'll start knocking on doors.
Somebody's gotta have a security system around here that saw something.
G also hides cameras all over the place. So have Mouse
request all the IP addresses in a four block vicinity. All right.
(PHONE RINGING) Chicago Police Intelligence.
(PHONE RINGING) Sorry. Chicago Police Intelligence. Can you hold?
There's 150 places that sell medical supplies in Chicago.
So, we're reaching out to see if any of them have sold an arm sling to someone
fitting our description in the last three months, and
if there's video surveillance. Patrol's helping out.
Yeah, well, we also need a list of every doctor, surgeon, nurse,
X-ray tech, dentist, orderly, janitor...
Anybody in the medical field who wears scrubs.
Oh, don't forget mental institutions.
Yeah, and check practicing and non-practicing.
Benson.
Hey, Sarge, you alone?
Close enough. What's up?
Well, I'm going over the witness statements from the Debra McCulloch disappearance
in '04. Detectives interviewed a med student who knew Debra, named Will Halstead.
The name bumped for Rollins, so we did some digging.
It turns out, he's a doctor in Chicago Med right now. Okay.
And his brother, Jay, he's a detective in Voight's unit.
I see. Go on.
And I'm guessing you can't really talk right now.
Good luck, Sarge.
Good to know. Thank you.
All good?
Oh, yeah, That's... That was just my son's nanny, checking in.
Okay.
Hey. Olivia.
Hey.
I went ahead and ordered you a Manhattan.
I see. And I'm gonna go ahead and drink it.
Cheers.
So, I gotta run something past you.
Okay.
Detective Halstead, his brother Will, you know him?
Little.
So, my ex-partner questioned him 10 years ago.
He knew one of the victims in New York.
I'd like to bring him in, you know, ask him a few questions, just,
check his temperature.
Without Jay knowing why you're bringing Will in.
That's correct.
You wanna ambush Will.
Well, I wouldn't... It's okay. I mean, you can call it what it is.
Yes, I wanna ambush Will.
Hmm.
Look, he knew the woman who went missing in New York.
And now suddenly the killer activates after he gets a job at Chicago Med.
I've been carrying around this case for 10 years.
I just need to see the look on his face.
Look, I know this is your house and I don't wanna disrespect you,
that's why I just... I wanted to run it past you.
Just... Let me think about it.
Okay.
Well, thanks, Sarge, we got it from here.
Sergeant Voight likes everything just the way it is,
so I wouldn't be moving anything around.
Well, I'm glad you told me, I was planning on stealing the copier.
I'm kidding.
Awesome. After you, all I need is Ruzek to sign the card.
Careful with Ruzek, he's terrible at keeping secrets.
Okay. So, I'm gonna steal her car keys to pick up the cake
and if that doesn't work, can I use yours?
Yep. No problem.
Awesome. What's no problem?
It's... It's all under control.
You better not be planning me a surprise party.
I'm not.
I know where you live.
So, this is everything pertinent from our files on the New York victims.
Sergeant. Thanks for coming, both of you.
Of course. Thank you.
Hey, I guess that tip-line must have paid off.
Apparently some woman just called over in Bucktown.
She said that some guy two weeks ago was asking for help unloading boxes from his car.
Was she attacked? No, she got a weird feeling, took off.
Get this, though, the guy was wearing scrubs.
Hey, there he is. What's up, baby?
Man, you all good?
You know that it is. You need anything, just holler at me.
Where's my hello?
Hey, what's up, man? It's nice to see you.
Good to see you again. How are you?
I'll go interview this woman.
You know, maybe I'll come with.
Hey, Jay. You know, I'm still trying to get some more information about
this nurse from Chicago Med, who was killed.
Her sister, unfortunately, wasn't much help.
Now, your brother's a doctor there. Am I right?
Mmm-hmm. Did he know her?
He said he bumped into her a few times.
Okay, do you think he'd be willing to come in, and maybe point us in the
direction of somebody that knew her better?
I doubt he knows much, but I can give him a call.
That would be really helpful. Thanks.
Okay. Great.
First floor, right? Yeah, first floor.
(DOORBELL RINGING)
Charlotte Reegan?
Yes.
Hi. I'm Detective Dawson, this is Detective Amaro. You called in the tip line last night?
Yeah. Wow, you guys got here quick.
Hey, Charlotte, would you mind taking us through what happened?
Of course. Come in.
Oh, sorry about the mess. This place is so small, my stuff gets everywhere.
You know, when I was your age, I slept in a closet in New York. $600 a month.
So, what happened two weeks ago?
Well, it gets claustrophobic in here.
So I went for a walk. I was over by the park and there was this guy standing by his car.
Said he needed help moving a box to the passenger seat.
You know, he had a sling on his arm
and doctor pants on under a jacket, so I walked over to help.
But when I got to the car I saw this car jack thingy in the back seat
and he was just a little too... I don't know, too friendly. Too chatty.
Now, did you get a good look at him?
Not really. It was night. He was a white guy.
He was wearing a cap.
Was there an emblem on the cap?
No. Just a black ball cap.
What kind of car was he driving?
Subaru. Wagon. I remember 'cause my aunt has one.
Dark green. I didn't get the license plate, though.
I just turned and gripped my keys in my hand and started walking.
If you saw this guy again, would you be able to identify him?
Sergeant Benson, this is my brother, Will.
If he insists on you calling him Doctor Halstead, you smack him upside the head.
Nice to meet you, Sergeant, and don't listen to him.
You've probably already figured that out, though.
Okay, if you go by Will then I'll go by Olivia.
I like you already.
Hank. How you doing, Will?
He's got an hour till his shift, I told him we'd get him in and out.
Of course. We just have a couple of questions.
Why don't we go in here? All right.
Hey, mind if I join?
Um...
Yeah, sure, why not?
Great, here, have a seat.
I didn't know her well. Like I told Jay, she was just a really friendly person.
Seemed to be well-liked by everyone in the staff.
Although, I would have to assume there are other people
at Chicago Med who could give you more insight.
Well, we were hoping that you could do that for us, you know.
We're just trying to piece together who she was as a person.
Of course. Whatever I can do.
BENSON: Did you know her outside of work?
No. I just started a couple weeks ago,
so I'm still in the getting-to-know-you stage, meeting everyone.
Been there. That can take a while.
So, while you're here,
do you know this woman?
Wow. Yeah, Debra.
It's been a while. She went missing, a long time ago, back in New York.
BENSON: Yeah.
How do you know Debra, Will?
What's going on here?
Well, we just found out that Will was in New York
at the time of the other two incidents.
You just found out, my ass.
Sarge, she's ambushing my brother.
You signed off on it!
I'm a little confused here.
Don't say another word.
What... What are you talking about?
We're done. Let's go.
You're asking if I did these crimes?
I am.
I didn't.
Don't say another word until you get a lawyer.
I don't need a lawyer. I didn't do anything.
It doesn't matter. If they want to, they'll find a way to stitch you up.
Come on! Careful, Jay.
Back off!
Now, I saw what happened to that girl, and if it were my sister,
or my daughter or my mom, I'd want you to do exactly what you're doing right now.
Ask me anything you want, anytime.
I appreciate that.
If you could write down where you were the night of Victoria's murder,
like, a full statement.
No, no, no! He's not writing anything down. Come on, get up! We're leaving, now.
Come on!
(SIGHS)
(KNOCK ON DOOR) Yeah, come on in.
Will is gonna write down a statement. I'm gonna read it and then I'll submit to you.
He was home that night watching TV.
Okay. Can anyone put him there?
No. He ordered a pay-per-view movie. I'm checking that to see if I can get the records.
You have anymore questions for my brother, you can go through me.
VOIGHT: Look, I understand how you're feeling, Jay,
but you're not running point on questioning your brother. I think you understand why.
I'll get you that report after I've read it.
Okay. Tip-lines in New York are heating up as well.
I need to get back there.
See what new information's popped up, if any.
Re-interview some of the witnesses from the '04 cases.
About an hour and a half.
Look, I hope I didn't put you in a bad spot.
No. Not at all. I would have done the same thing with one of your guys.
Except I probably wouldn't have asked.
You'll let me know if he checks out? Of course.
Okay.
Sure you gotta go?
You'll be in good hands with Fin and Amaro.
Do me a favor. Mmm.
Play this one by the book, please.
If this ever goes to trial...
I get it. You have my word.
You take care of yourself, Hank.
So, you ready? You ready?
All right, the witness said that it was a dude in a dark-colored Subaru wagon.
Well, I was able to access a security camera on a private residence
near the corner of the block where Victoria Lewyn lives.
Lived, rather. Now, check this out.
Ah! There, dark green Subaru wagon!
And that was an hour before CFD responded to the blaze in her apartment.
Now you're talking. Right?
You get the plates? No. Getting to that.
We can only read the first three digits.
But there's only one Subaru wagon in that color with those three first numbers.
Now, the car is registered to Elizabeth Kendall. She's 78 years old.
Okay. Let's have the address. We can get a patrol out there.
There it is.
21-13 Squad.
RADIO: Go ahead, 21-13.
Can you roll an assist car, no emergency, to the intersection of Thorpe and Fillmore?
Tell them to throw an anchor down.
We've located the vehicle Intelligence had the BOLO on.
RADIO: Copy that. Look at this.
Be advised, Squad, we have a male subject approaching the vehicle.
Hold us down on a stop at this location. Will advise if we need back up.
RADIO: Roger that. (SIREN BLARING)
How's it going today, sir?
Very well, thank you.
Can I see your license and registration?
Is there a problem?
No. Do you want there to be?
Can you pop your trunk, sir?
MAN: The car's not in my name yet. I'm buying it from a woman. We just haven't
filed the official paperwork. There is a note attached from her, stating that.
New York? Yeah. Just moved here three months ago.
Still waiting on the Illinois license.
Can you take the key out of the ignition and hand it to me?
Officer, respectfully, I would like an explanation as for why you're doing this.
You're not entitled to one. Now, hand me the keys.
Sit tight.
Dude.
We're bringing him in.
He's clean. Nothing outstanding.
No warrants. Nothing.
We're bringing him in.
Okay.
Mr. Yates, looks like your car was reported as being involved in a hit and run
where a pedestrian was injured. Do you know anything about that?
No, I don't. I've owned the car for three weeks.
Besides, if you check the front bumper, does it look like anything's been hit?
It's probably a false report.
But you're still gonna need to come in until we clear this up, sir.
So, if you'll get out of the car...
(SIGHS)
Home address, employer information and what else?
Cell phone number. Oh, of course.
So, what brings you to Chicago, Mr. Yates?
Employment. Where?
MedHelp. It's a urgent care facility on the South Side.
Oh, so, you were a professor at Columbia in New York.
Residency at Presbyterian.
That's correct.
When was this?
Well, I'm sure that file states it.
I'm asking you.
10 years or so.
Where've you been since then?
Oh, all over. Traveling.
Lots of time in New Orleans. Now,
there is a lawless town.
My job as a physician, you know, there's always a need. Always a spot to fill.
How'd you go from being a doctor at one of the best hospitals
in the country to working at an urgent care?
Man does not control his own fate.
The women in his life do that for him.
Groucho Marx. Oh, see, I bet you don't even know who that is.
You ever been to Chicago Med?
Oh sure.
As a patient or...
No, actually. I have lunch there sometimes.
VOIGHT: Recognize him?
He wore a baseball cap and it was night. I mean, it could be him?
I'm sorry, I can't say for sure.
Do you know this woman?
No.
Her?
Hmm? No.
No? No.
No. Are any of these the pedestrian
that the car I'm purchasing supposedly struck?
That is the reason that I was brought in. Am I correct?
You shave your arms, doctor.
My whole body, actually. It's for cycling.
Helps reduce drag.
You know, I'm new to the city. What's the best spot around here for cycling?
I don't know. My bike's still in storage. Am I under arrest?
I do have a general sense of my rights as a US citizen.
You're free to go.
LINDSAY: Thanks for coming in.
Oh, I'm happy to help.
Hmm. Do you have any travel plans, Mr. Yates?
None. Are you kidding? I just got to your beautiful city. Can't wait to explore it.
Hello.
Get a state's attorney on board ASAP. Give 'em the particulars, probable cause
and let 'em know we believe this guy is good for it.
All right, one of you figure out who's gonna be the affiant on his phone.
I'm on it, boss.
We are gonna run this clean. We're gonna run it thorough.
We're gonna run it by the book.
Everybody understand?
You got a sec?
Go ahead.
My brother ordered a pizza the night Victoria was assaulted.
The delivery guy will vouch.
Jay, he's been cleared as a suspect.
Wonderful. Moving on.
I told him about Greg Yates. Get this,
they worked together for a minute in the same hospital.
Yates was one of his professors in med school. He's got an opinion about him.
All right, where's Will now?
He's downstairs. Go, get him.
Sir.
He was one of those instructors that made
the students call him by his first name.
Liked to hang out at the bars we went to.
Some bought into it but I always got a creepy vibe.
Someone invited him out to a party one night, and Yates corners me.
Starts talking about who has the best ass. Who he'd like to have sex with first.
Debra McCulloch was at that party.
The nurse who went missing.
Was it the night she went missing?
No. I think it was, like, three nights before that.
But they were both there. Could have easily met her that night.
NADIA: Lindsay? You have a call.
It's Greg Yates.
Detective Lindsay.
YATES: I can't help but think that we got off on the wrong foot.
LINDSAY: How do you mean?
Oh, I just feel like I made a bad impression on your co-workers back there.
I would love to try and win you guys back. Are you free to meet for a short conversation?
Sure. Why don't you come by the district?
No, just you and me.
The pavilion at Millennium Park in three hours.
Thank you for your time, in advance.
I'm meeting him.
MOUSE: All right, so, Voight will be able to communicate with you through that.
Now, I'd use your phone in your other ear, assuming you like to hear over 4,000 hertz.
Okay. Good? Yup.
Just stay where we can see you.
I got it.
We'll be nearby in case anything goes sideways.
VOIGHT: Hey, Al, you guys find a good lookout yet?
We'll be near the pedestrian bridges a few hundred yards away.
Fin, Amaro, you're on the ground with Ruzek and Antonio.
Stay sharp.
(PHONE RINGING)
Sergeant Benson?
Lindsay, Fin told me you're going to meet with Yates alone.
LINDSAY: Yeah. I figure he's either looking to confess, he's playing us,
or he's looking to do something stupid, and even if it's the last one,
he's been at this for 10 years, it's worth it if we can finally bring him down.
BENSON: Look, just remember, if he's reaching out to you,
he's feeling the pressure, right?
He could be capable of anything right now.
I'll be ready, Sergeant.
Be safe.
Thanks. I will.
Anybody got eyes on Yates?
VOIGHT: Halstead, you got eyes on him?
Nothing.
Wait.
I got him. He's approaching from the west.
Sorry I'm a little late.
You look great, by the way.
So what is it you could only tell me in the park at night?
Wanna go grab a cup of coffee? It's too cold to sit.
Come on.
I'm harmless.
LINDSAY: We can talk right here.
No.
I want some coffee.
It's close. I promise.
Or you can sit here and I'll see you when I see you.
VOIGHT: Yates and Lindsay are on the move.
They're shifting positions. Lost sight of Lindsay.
Yeah, I got him. They're headed towards the walkway. We'll stay back.
I do this walk at night. The skyline is so beautiful.
It stuns me every time.
Hmm.
Why did you ask me to meet you in the park if you wanted to get coffee?
Oh, it's nothing nefarious. I changed my mind. It's cold.
You know what I think?
I think it's a move to assert control over the situation and over me.
Your Sergeant has gotten into your head. Don't let him think for you.
YATES: You're better than that. Have you been following what's been going on
in Egypt, post-revolution?
No.
Well, they finally get rid of Mubarak in 2011. Do you remember this at all?
There's much fanfare and jubilation. The people are free!
The people have spoken!
But when the euphoria ebbs, as it inevitably does, what are they left with?
High crime, raided antiquities, unrest.
See, you can unclench the iron fist of that dictator and that, that's great,
but you are not really prepared for what's on the other side.
You know what they call that, Detective?
The law of unintended consequences.
Why'd you wanna meet with me, Greg?
You know what my favorite example of that law is?
In Hanoi, under French colonial rule, they established a bounty
for each rat tail turned in to try and reduce the number of rats.
You know what happened?
People started breeding rats, for the tails,
and that charming little country ended up with more rats than it started with.
You wanna know why I think you wanted to meet me?
Because I'm 5' 5". And I have brown hair,
exactly like all those women that were murdered.
Is that so?
Why don't we talk about that instead of hiding behind all this history 101 crap.
Tell me what happened.
I know that you want to.
Who do I remind you of? Your mom?
An ex-girlfriend, maybe?
Come on.
More rats, Detective.
Remember that.
OLINSKY: We got him. He's headed for the taxi.
VOIGHT: You're all right? Yeah, I'm fine.
Patrol says he took the cab to Water Tower Place,
and then he slipped them once he got inside.
He's playing a game. He knows it's just a matter of time. We'll get him.
(PHONE RINGING)
Voight.
Sergeant, Chief Wallace Boden.
We've got another body.
Hank. How're you doing, Chief?
Sorry to see you again like this.
Detective Fin and Amaro. They're in from New York.
Nice meeting you, Chief.
Chief Boden, House 51. Pleasure.
This way.
BODEN: Fire was started in the bedroom.
FIN: You said "was started?"
Yeah. The amount of damage in the room, lack of accidental causes...
This is arson if you ask me, I just can't prove that right now.
Is there any way of telling whether or not it was started remotely?
We'll search for an incendiary device, but even if the device survived
the fire, it would be weeks, maybe months before any conclusion.
And that's if we got lucky.
That's why he was with Lindsay when it started.
Plausible deniability.
(SIGHING)
And what is she, 18?
Hmm.
What's this?
Green nail polish.
Was it him? Yeah.
So, he was using me as an alibi.
That's right.
Hey, yo, I got a location on his phone.
It's an apartment on the west side.
Get everyone over there now.
Give me the address. Yeah.
Look it's up to you, but... But, if you're with me, you better know what that means.
Stairs!
Chicago PD!
Clear!
Basement.
RUZEK: That ammonia?
Yeah, a lot of it.
Nothing.
Clear.
He was just here.
YATES: Hello.
