The Gates

Previously, on "The Gates"...

Oh

Just take what you need from me.

It's the only way you'll get your strength back

I told you it would work.

- I love you. - I don't love you, Christian.

I love Dylan.

We're friends, man. What are you doing?

Goodbye, Christian.

Come on.

Emily?

Where are we going again?

It's gonna be fun.

Claire.

You didn't find her?

You checked the bar?

And Christian's apartment in the city?

I thought he might've taken her to the woods where I burned him,

but there was nothing.

This is my fault.

I should've done a proper job and finished him.

Look, all we can do is keep searching.

Where else would he have taken her?

I don't know.

But we can't do this on our own.

We can't go to our own kind. It'll be the end of us.

But we need help.

Chief Monohan.

Please.

We need your help.

Emily's been kidnapped.

I should issue an Amber alert.

Bring in the FBI. You cat.

If he even so much as smells them,

he'll kill her.

You're the only one who can know.

Please, Nick, you're the only one we can trust.

Did he take anything?

Toys or clothes?

Her stuffed lion is missing.

A half a dozen outfits.

Well, that's a good sign.

What I don't understand, though...

why would your friend take your daughter?

You don't talk to me, you don't...

you don't tell me everything you know,

then there's a good chance

you're not gonna see your daughter alive again.

Tell him.

Christian violated my wife.

So I tried to kill him.

Hey.

Hey.

You don't look very happy.

I'm fine.

Here.

You didn't happen to see your father leave this morning, did you?

Ah, he was gone when I woke up. Have you tried calling?

Yeah. Yeah. He didn't answer his phone.

Speaking of which...

Uh, did Andie get ahold of you?

She phoned here last night looking for you.

She did?

Yeah, but she didn't want to leave a message.

Uh, o-okay, well, you know, I'll see her at school.

Okay.

Uh, listen, Charlie.

If you ever want to talk about Andie

or just girls in general, you could try me.

I'm pretty good at this stuff.

Yeah, mom, uh, not gonna happen.

Later.

All right, when we first met, he called himself guy Morton.

Okay, also try Liam McGregor.

Jack Quinn.

No hits in the immediate area.

Try Terrence hill or Shane Healy.

Okay.

We've got a Shane Healy from Concord county.

And that was 20 years ago. Here's the picture.

That's him.

I've seen this guy. Inside the Gates.

He was with Buckley's wife, Vanessa.

Okay.

Vanessa said he was looking for a house inside the Gates.

Called himself Steve Saunders. Gave an address in Lancaster.

Lancaster. That's only an hour's drive.

Well, then, we should leave immediately.

We will, as soon as I make sure this checks out.

But, Claire, I need you to stay here.

You can't be serious. She's my daughter.

I understand that,

but Christian could come back to your house, he could call.

Talking to him, negotiating with him...

that's how I know to get Emily back.

I understand.

So, what if he calls?

You keep him on the phone.

Leigh will monitor it. We'll get a trace.

Most importantly, I need you to stay calm.

Do you understand?

All right, let's go.

Everything's gonna be fine, okay?

Hi.

Hey.

You called my house yesterday?

Um, yeah.

I was, um, just...

Wonder what our English homework was.

I forgot to write it down.

You forgot to write down homework?

Yeah.

Andie...

If there's something that you need to talk about,

you just have to tell me. Hey.

Hi, Andie.

So, I just wanted to see

if you were still into the name of my band

um...

It has some definite possibilities.

Um, but maybe we could talk about this later?

Sure. I'll find you.

So...

Uh, you good with the homework thing?

Uh, yeah.

Yeah, I'm good.

So, what's up with you and Charlie?

Is that really any of your business?

He's my friend,

and I don't want to see him get hurt.

I think you already took care of that.

Look...

I know you're into Brett.

It's obvious.

But I'm not trying to get in your way.

We're not getting back together.

So you don't need to use Charlie

to try to make me jealous or whatever it is you're doing.

If you're not getting back with Brett, then what are you doing?

We're just...

Hanging out.

I got to get to class.

Hey.

I-I saw Leigh dropped you off in her patrol car.

I just wanted to see if everything was okay.

Okay, y-you're scaring me. What happened?

Come in.

Claire.

It's Emily.

She's been kidnapped.

If it comes down to it, head or heart?

Straight through the heart. And don't miss.

I won't.

Something's not right.

Police!

Hands up!

Hands up!

It's Emily's.

It's probably the real Saunderses.

He left them here for us.

Monohan.

Chief Monohan, my name is Christian.

May I call you Nick?

Okay? I understand your anger.

What can I do to fix this?

You can skip the psychotherapy.

I called to warn you to stay out of this.

It's a private matter between Claire, Dylan, and myself.

Yeah, and an innocent little girl.

Collateral damage.

She doesn't have to be.

Your grudge is with Dylan and Claire, right?

You can settle it with them.

And just leave Emily out of this.

Oh, afraid it's too late for that.

Christian, you tell me where my daughter is.

Or what? You'll kill me again?

Put your friend back on. Christian, I'm telling you...

put him back on, or I will

slit your daughter's pretty little throat.

All right, look, Christian, you proved your point.

Where's Emily?

How do you know she's not already dead?

'Cause if she was, she'd be propped up with these two.

I think she's alive, and I think you want something.

Just tell me what it is.

You know, it's funny...

you think Dylan and Claire

are the saintly, suffering parents...

That they deserve their little girl back.

Why don't you ask them about St. Louis?

What? What did he say?

He said to ask you about St. Louis.

St. Louis?

I don't know what he's talking about.

Maybe you should sit down.

I can't.

It's bad enough that I'm stuck here by the phone

instead of out looking for my daughter.

Especially when it's my fault that she's missing.
