- Previously on "The Hunting Party"...
It's called the Pit.
Home to the most dangerous and violent criminals
in history, all of whom the world believes are dead--
or at least it was, until the blast hit.
How many inmates got out?
- You're here, Agent Henderson,
to help us catch them.
I am in charge now.
- What about this new guy? - Jonathan Peck?
- I don't work for the Pit, which means
I have no reason to keep you or your team in the dark.
- She wanted this post for a reason.
- Says here she came up through West Point.
Apparently she could run a sub-five-minute mile.
- Prior to West Point, Evelyn Lazarus doesn't exist.
Hey.
Looking great, bro.
Thanks.
- Hey, you finish up before I'm back,
just pop the keys in the mail slot.
Fantastic.
Ones across the board today.
The dollar held strong while the Dow and NASDAQ
composites were both down.
Investors maintain confidence in the nation's economy
but seem skittish in anticipation of...
- Ugh, my horoscope is the worst.
- But while it was a red day on Wall Street,
the vanguard cryptocurrency Bitcoin bucked the trend
as it continues to climb.
You guys really need a dog.
No, no, no, you can take--
While others maintain that
the emerging financial market is the way of the future.
Time will tell who proves to be right.
Heart rate rising fast.
Recording session 24.
Here we go.
- Hi. - Hey.
- Oh, thanks. Come on in. - Yeah.
Uh, Hassani.
Good to see you're all settled into the new place.
Oh, yeah.
- Never knew you were a prepper.
- Oh, no, I just really hate grocery shopping.
Okay, so I was thinking about what your friend said,
the one that went to West Point with Colonel Lazarus?
Yeah.
- If she's running a five-minute mile at the Point,
she's gotta be on a track and field team
in high school, right? - Yeah, that makes sense.
But how does that help us figure out her real name?
- You know that emergency exit out there doesn't lock?
- Anyways, the fastest mile time
for female high school students in the '90s
was around five minutes.
So if she's running anywhere close to that,
there's gotta be a record of her competing
or maybe even winning a race.
And that is how we are gonna find out her real name.
Okay.
But there are a lot of high schools out there, Bex.
I mean, without more to go on,
it feels like we're gonna be looking
for a needle in a haystack.
What do you think, Hassani?
- Poor sightlines, only one point of egress,
and I do not love the lighting in the parking lot.
- I'm talking about the track theory.
Oh.
I think whoever gave Lazarus her new identity
went to great lengths to make sure it would stick.
So if there were any track and field records,
I'm pretty sure they're long gone.
We got a hit.
- Uh-oh. - That's us.
Inmate H43, Zack Lang.
His prints were pulled from a body in Manhattan.
- There are a lot of eyeballs in Manhattan.
Hassani? - We're on it.
I'm having my guys seal the crime scene as we speak.
Do you know this guy?
Oh, yeah, I'm familiar.
Zack Lang robbed and killed 12 people over four years
starting in 2010.
He would target the 1%-- millionaires, billionaires.
Actually, he became a bit of a folk hero
to the Occupy Wall Street movement.
I remember this guy.
They put his face on T-shirts.
A real millennial Robin Hood.
Pretty much.
In 2007, his parents lost almost all their money
in the financial crisis.
They moved to a modest home just outside the city.
He was the only child to a penny stock salesman
and a nurse.
But at 16, he was kicked out of the home for his drug use.
Four years and 12 homicides later,
he was caught gunning down a wealthy accountant
in his own hot tub.
At the trial, he spoke endlessly
about Fortune 500 companies and the need
for a new banking system.
Eat the rich. How original.
- You got a problem with Occupy Wall Street?
- Oh, I think every socialist libertarian
crypto survivalist has the right to peaceful protest.
What they do not have the right to...
- Hey! - Is this.
Zack Lang believes he did.
You mean does.
- Given his psychopathy, probably won't be his last.
Viva la revolución.
Seriously, let's bag this guy
before he starts grabbing headlines.
- I think the fireworks are about to start.
I took out the trash.
I made the world a better place.
I spent my days and nights washing cars for millionaires
who barely saw me as a human.
I was their slave.
They couldn't pick me out of a lineup, okay?
They didn't--
but because they gave me 50 bucks,
I'm supposed to be grateful?
I mean, do you have any idea how messed up that is?
You know, my dad, my dad was a good man.
And he worked hard his whole life
selling penny stocks while his bosses got rich
and he got cancer.
Do you think they cared?
Why aren't you writing any of this down?
I'm spinning gold here.
Come on, think ahead.
You could--you could write a book about me or something,
get famous like me.
Thank you.
Had enough of that.
No kidding.
This guy certainly likes to talk, doesn't he?
- In his Pit files, there's over 30,000 hours
of therapy sessions.
Morales is combing through it from the beginning.
- That's, like, three years of BS to sift through.
- Yep. - Poor Morales.
Okay, but listen to this.
This is from the psychiatrist.
"What makes Lang's psychopathy so dangerous
"is his well-developed moral narcissism.
"He believes that all of his actions are justified
because it serves what in his mind is the greater good."
The cause.
It's always about the cause. It's never about them.
- But in reality, the cause is always second.
It's an excuse.
Zack wants to be this champion to the people,
but in reality, it's a psychological defense
against his overwhelming feelings
of inferiority and rage that made him
a murderer in the first place.
So it is personal.
It's not political.
Well, it's both.
The cause, sure.
But for Zack, every single kill is an exorcism.
It's a ritual of annihilation.
See, now that's interesting.
When's he gonna talk about that?
Eh, probably never.
A dockhand found him.
Thought he was a drunk sleeping it off.
- Do we have an ID on the victim?
Not yet. No wallet.
Odd thing to steal, considering the rest of it.
And no cameras in the area, either.
- Thank you. We'll take it from here.
- Be my guest. - Thanks, Detective.
- Are those-- - They're Markuzis.
I've seen them for a couple hundred grand, used.
Are they burned on?
- By the looks of that suit, he's still killing rich people.
But instead of stealing this guy's watches,
he stuck 'em on his face, which is new.
- Judging from the ligature marks
and the blood around the skull, it looks like he was beaten
and then strangled, not shot.
That's also new.
So what is that telling you?
- It just feels more personal, more hands-on.
It's like you can feel his rage.
And then the watches--
I don't know, is that humiliation?
Is he adorning him with a symbol of his own wealth?
- Do you think maybe Zack knew this guy?
It's possible.
- Morales, I'm scanning the DB's fingerprints.
Let me know if you get an ID.
On it.
