The first 200 lines.
I know. And I'm sorry for what I said.
I was just--I'll tell you when I see you, okay?
Love you too, Mom.
- Hi. - Hi.
I'm looking for Rina Trenholm.
Her room was right here, but her stuff isn't there.
Did you move her?
Can I have your name, sir?
Sure, Jubal Valentine.
- Just a moment. - Okay.
- Mr. Valentine. - Yeah?
Susan Blanchard, patient affairs coordinator.
I'm afraid life support was discontinued
for Ms. Trenholm last night.
W-what?
Her parents had medical power of attorney.
It was a decision they made after a consultation
with our medical staff and deep reflection.
I talked to her doctor.
He said it wasn't gonna happen until the end of the week.
I-I was gonna--
I'm sorry.
If you'd like to be connected with a grief counselor,
I can...
Hey, Susan?
Sorry, please excuse me.
Yeah?
I'm on my way.
Angela Mullins, 19.
She's a freshman at Woodhaven Junior College.
She was abducted last night
walking back to her apartment from the library.
NYPD got word this morning when the owner of a nearby shop
checked his security cam.
We're about to take a look. Ian, roll it.
And we're assisting?
No, we're primary.
The abduction site is on the fringe
of a newly designated national park.
We been able to pull the suspect's ID off the video?
There's not enough data points for facial rec.
Can we get a location of the victim's phone?
Cell signal is still transmitting near the park.
And looks like Angela's last call was to her mother,
Valerie Mullins, at 10:22 p.m.
Okay, that's four minutes before the abduction.
We'll meet the mom at Angela's apartment.
We need to check with college security
for any stalking complaints.
And we need to vet Angela's texts
and emails for any red flags there.
Let's go to work, people!
One more thing.
As many of you may or may not have heard...
Rina Trenholm passed away last night.
She was family.
So we will be having a memorial,
and details will follow.
In the meantime, let's honor her memory
the way she'd want us to.
Let's do our jobs.
You okay?
Yeah, I'm good. Thanks.
Listen, I know how close you guys were.
If you need some time-- - No. No. I'm good.
We need to--we need to find this girl.
Go, people! We need leads now! Let's take a move.
ERT found the girl's backpack ditched inside the park.
Cash and credit cards weren't touched,
so it doesn't figure for a robbery.
What about her cell phone?
Just pulled it from the gutter.
Okay, let's have ERT dust it for prints,
and pull traffic cams from a ten-block radius.
Copy that.
- Where are we on the canvass? - Still in process.
But a deli worker named Manny Statler saw something.
Thank you.
Okay, okay.
Thanks.
Hey, Manny, can you tell us what happened?
I was taking the trash out. Seen this tall white guy
with a gray cap, might've had a beard.
He was dumping some chick in his car.
What do you mean by "dumping"?
She was out cold. He put her in the back seat.
Said something like, "I'm gonna take care of you, Angela."
Okay, why didn't you call it in?
I assumed they were together.
We get the college crowd looking to work off a buzz.
Figured she was bombed on Long Islands
like they usually are.
- What kinda car was it? - Gold sedan. Older model.
All right, thanks.
"I'm gonna take care of you, Angela."
Sounds like they might've known each other.
You said you spoke to your daughter late last night?
Yes. It was a nice call.
I can't believe this is happening.
Did she ever tell you anyone threatened her?
No.
Was she having problems with anyone?
Not that I know of.
But the last time she was home,
Angela said she was seeing an older man.
I didn't approve. Said things I shouldn't have.
She left angry.
Okay.
Do you know anything else about this guy?
Just that that they'd dated a few months.
Angela called last night to say it was over
and she was sorry about our fight.
We were gonna get mani-pedis today.
Ms. Mullins, I know this is hard,
but we're gonna do everything in our power
to get her back, okay? - Okay.
Now, you mentioned an older man.
We ran Angela's cell history, and it seems that she had
a lot of calls with a English professor
named Alex Bradshaw over the last few months.
Did she ever mention him?
No.
- Okay. - Hey, Tiff.
Yeah?
A gold bracelet.
Gift receipt comes back to a jeweler
that's a few blocks from Woodhaven's campus.
Thanks for coming in, Professor Bradshaw.
What's this about?
Angela Mullins. You know her?
Who said I did?
Look, we're gonna level with you, Professor.
The girl's gone missing.
Missing?
Oh, my God.
And a bracelet of hers
was tracked back to your credit card.
So let's just cut the preliminaries
and tell us about your relationship.
I prefer the term "friendship,"
which lasted for two months until I ended it.
Yeah? Why'd you call it quits?
We were meeting at Bistro Ambrosia in Soho.
I see her chatting up some troglodyte
in a car across the street.
She says he just rolled up to say hi.
I question her veracity.
It spiraled from there.
You get a good look at this troglodyte?
Not really. He never got out.
- What about his car? - An old Chevy.
Gold. New York plates.
Oh, and the first three numbers are 314.
Why was that significant?
Because it's pi.
Pi?
Not bad for an English professor.
Yes, well.
I really do hope you find Angela.
She's a lovely girl.
But I do have a class I need to teach.
Not so fast, Professor.
Why don't you educate us on your whereabouts last night
so we can check that out?
All right, Alex Bradshaw's alibi checks out.
Where are we on the car?
Search for a gold Chevy near the park around the time
of the abduction didn't turn up anything.
Yeah, okay. What about the plate?
We got three gold Chevys with New York plates
beginning with 314.
a 2020 Impala, a 2019 Volt, and a 2009 Malibu.
Okay, we're looking for an older sedan,
so maybe the Malibu. Who's the registered owner?
Robert Bender from Syosset.
Okay, have Maggie and OA check it out.
Does the Malibu have an active GPS?
Yep--if the car is moving, I can grab a fix.
Just need to get the VIN from the DMV.
Bingo--Jackson Avenue, Long Island City.
Okay.
See if you can catch him on a traffic cam.
He's crossing Crescent now.
There is a cam at that intersection.
I can't get a clean view, but that driver--
A tall guy with a beard and a cap,
and the blonde's in the passenger seat.
Tiff and Scola are in that area. Tiffany.
Yeah, we got a suspect in Long Island City
heading east on Jackson Avenue.
She's running.
FBI, don't move!
Hey, stop!
Damn it!
Call it in and get an ambulance.
Suspect is fleeing northbound.
I need an ambulance at Lefferts and 91st.
Tiff--
I know. It's not Angela.
What the hell happened to that signal?
