Absentia

Tell me about the vision.

The vision is getting worse.

It's like it consumes me.

And part of me just wants to forget it

and the other part just wants to remember.

And I'm terrified of what will happen if I ever do.

It's just like I'm far away, just looking at myself.

Watching her...

Emily.

Doing things.

Does this make any sense?

Complete sense.

You have to be patient with yourself.

What you're doing,

is not easy, Emily.

But you're trying.

You should be proud of that.

He ordered an escort at 11:46 p m.

She arrives just before 2:00,

finds the body.

Multiple stab wounds.

Happened right here.

The knife?

From his own set in the kitchen.

Missing.

Security cam?

Someone cut them off at 11:58.

Well, Tommy,

you finally got your big one.

You might want to clean up your act.

You're not undercover any more.

Not your jurisdiction, Nick.

You're not the only Boston police I know, Gibbs.

I assume you're here to talk about your ex-wife?

She didn't do this.

She got an alibi? I dropped her off at home.

Her alibi's going to be that she was sleeping.

You could have just said no.

I know this doesn't look good.

That's an understatement.

She looked good for Semerov at first, too.

You look into your witness yet?

Kelly Price.

You mean Regina Talbot.

As a matter of fact, I did. Looks like she skipped town.

Someone's covering their tracks, Gibbs.

Someone is trying to frame Emily.

Well you know as well as I do or you wouldn't be here.

That it's just a matter of time before this lands on Emily.

Unless there's some overwhelming evidence that vindicates her...

There is.

There is one more thing.

It's not... evidence exactly.

What is it?

What?

There's a crooked agent

in the Boston FBI field office.

That's who turned Regina Talbot into Kelly Price,

and that person is afraid that Emily is onto them.

You're reaching.

Yeah, maybe, but I'm narrowing it down.

If you can just buy me some time on your end...

Please. Please, I...

I need you to keep BPD off Emily.

Make sure your girl doesn't leave town.

They found my DNA on Semerov's body and now Harlow is dead?

After I broke into his house.

Calm down.

Were you supposed to bring me in?

Is that why you're here?

They have a circumstantial case at best.

You hated him, you confronted him.

That doesn't prove beyond reasonable doubt that you killed him.

You're not going down for this.

Not if...

Not if we turn up another suspect.

The agent who set me up for Semerov, that's who's behind this.

That's who killed Harlow.

What am I gonna do?

What are we gonna do?

We stay focused.

We find the crooked agent behind Kelly Price.

You don't have an alibi, do you?

No.

I got us burners.

We should start using these from now on.

Wait, Nick, I'm not going with you?

No, you're gonna take Flynn go-karting as planned.

You can pick him up from swim practice.

Just me and him? We were supposed to go together.

It's okay. You'll be fine.

Wait, Nick.

Why do you trust me?

I know you.

I'm gonna take care of this.

All right?

Hey.

So...

It's just you and me today. Your dad tell you?

Coach told me.

Okay.

It should be fun, right?

Where are we going?

It's a surprise.

Come on.

Okay, you ready to go?

Okay, close your eyes.

Here we go.

There you go.

How's that?

Ready? Great, let's go.

Right here?

Let me take a look at this.

How does that feel?

Feels all right?

Okay.

Hey!

That was awesome.

Yeah, you were great. Good job.

I wanna go again.

Yeah? Okay.

You wanna come with me?

Yes. I'll get you a helmet.

Hey, Ericson? Yeah?

Can you tell me how Crown could file a report from the office at 10:00 p.m.

when he left at 8:00?

Yeah, sure, it's no big deal.

He asked me to cover for him.

Hey, you got a minute?

What's up?

I just wanted to ask you about the other night you left early.

What about it?

You were clocked in, but you weren't here.

Where were you?

That's none of your business.

You're seriously asking, aren't you?

Fine, okay.

You really need to know?

I may have left early to meet a girl.

But if you saw what she looked like...

So that's it, you were with a girl?

What else would it be?

I took her to Freddy's.

What was Emily's reaction?

I'm trying to get home.

I have nothing to say. Please respect my privacy.

Anything at all, any information you can give us?

I have nothing to say. Please...

Please, no comment. Please!

Emily!

What are you thinking?

Hello.

What happened to you?

When you were gone.

Did they hurt you?

I don't remember much.

But I do remember thinking about you.

That got me through it.

The rest of it doesn't matter.

Okay?

There you go.

Yeah, thank you.

You ready to do this?

Yeah? Let's go.

You ready?

Yeah.

Let's go!

Come on.

Come on, Flynn.

Good show, buddy, good show.

That was cool.

Yes, you're cool.

One more time around?

All right, one more.

Three more?

Yeah, nice try. I gotta get you home.

One. Two?

All right. Ready?

But this time race for real.

Get ready, buster.

No!

Flynn!

Flynn!

My God! Baby...

No, let go. Let go.

Baby... Just...

Call for help!

Flynn.

Baby, come on, you hear me?

What happened?

I... he just came out of nowhere.

Does he have any previous head injuries?

I... I don't know.

Are you a relative? Yeah, I'm his mom.

You have to stay here, okay?

Yeah. You have to stay here.

Okay.

Hey, honey, can I call you back in a sec?

What... is he okay?

Ms. Byrne.
