Tali LaCroix : Dad, does Wally mind the hood?
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : He's okay, honey. It's not hurting him. Keep holding that leash.
[moving across the room]
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Ready?
[Tali nods]
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Okay.
[she removes Wally's hood]
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Let's see how that wing is doing.

FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Gilman's been an ICE officer for ten years. He knows our bag of tricks. All this cool whiz-bang stuff isn't gonna catch him.
Special Agent Omar Adom 'OA' Zidan : So what's your cool stuff, gut instinct?
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : I like to educate my gut. I go backwards. What's Gilman's story? Who are his close friends, family?
Special Agent Omar Adom 'OA' Zidan : Well, his neighbors say that he doesn't talk about his family, but his wife has a sister in White Plains that she's close to.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Good, I'll start with her.
-
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : This is a fugitive case now. Your job is done.
Special Agent Maggie Bell : Really? I saw those children. My job is done when Gilman's in custody.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Jubal will tell you, I work with a small team, people who've known me for years.
Special Agent Maggie Bell : Agent LaCroix...
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : It's nothing personal. My team has a shorthand, no wasted motions.
Special Agent Maggie Bell : Yeah, I caught one of your talks in Quantico three years ago. I know how you work. Just give me this: call me for the takedown.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : No promises. You have passion, Agent Bell. Hold on to it; it's useful.
-
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Sheryll'll join me interviewing Mrs. Gilman's bereaved sister.
FBI Agent Sheryll Barnes : You should try doing that hand-holding bit by yourself sometime.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : My hands are not as soft as yours. Clinton, get with the ICE office in Port Chester. Tell 'em we want to talk to Mr. Gilman's co-workers today. Don't let 'em stall you. They had a bad apple; they gotta suck it up and cooperate.
FBI Agent Clinton Skye : I'll sweet-talk them.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Hana, everyone he spoke to on the Net, every site he visited, opinion expressed, his jollies, his follies...
FBI Analyst Hana Gibson : Yeah, I got it.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Young Agent Crosby, how are those guns? All mended?
FBI Agent Crosby : [flexing his biceps] 100%, boss.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Excellent. Do us a favor. Next time a fugitive throws a refrigerator down a staircase, don't try to catch it.
-
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Now, we all know what Mr. Gilman did to get his spot on the Most Wanted. Our job is not to bring justice to Mr. Gilman. Our job is to bring Mr. Gilman to justice.

Michelle McDowell : Connie was divorcing him. She was telling him Saturday night she wanted him out before the kids woke up.
FBI Agent Sheryll Barnes : Why did your sister want a divorce?
Michelle McDowell : She found out he cheated on her. She found his pills for a urinary infection.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : What was their marriage like before?
Michelle McDowell : Tom's a control freak. And Connie was like this "yes, sir" wife, and she never stood up for herself.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : But the divorce was her idea, right?
Michelle McDowell : I told her that she didn't deserve to be treated...
[crying]
Michelle McDowell : If I just kept my stupid mouth shut, none of...
FBI Agent Sheryll Barnes : Michelle, this was not your fault, okay? And you're doing great work now. You're giving us solid information.
-
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Tell us about Tom's family.
Michelle McDowell : Connie said that his mom ran off when he was young, and I think his dad passed three years ago.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : And what about his friends, did you know them?
Michelle McDowell : I don't know if he had any. He was always off on his own, playing with the dog. He barely even talked to his own kids.
-
FBI Agent Crosby : Hey, boss, I scrubbed Gilman's phone. No trace of any girlfriend.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Gilman didn't cheat because he's looking for a relationship. Intimacy's not in his tool kit.
FBI Analyst Hana Gibson : Neither is sharing. He's got no social media presence. Joined Facebook in 2009, posted one picture of his daughter, and hasn't been back since.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Yeah, sounds about right.
Detective Dryden : What's he doing, inspecting suspicious marbles?
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : It's old, Detective, maybe from his childhood. It's interesting to me that he kept it.
-
FBI Agent Clinton Skye : The ICE office in Port Chester will have Gilman's co-workers ready for us in an hour. I was just at his bank. He withdrew 35K Saturday morning. Running money. He had a plan.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Nothing impetuous about our boy.
Detective Dryden : Sounds like this isn't your first rodeo with family annihilators.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : You know they come in four flavors? There's the self-righteous type who blames everybody, especially his wife, for all the crap in his life. There's the guy who can't get his act together and feels humiliated by his failures. And then we have the self-pitying loser who feels like his family has let him down. Then there's the paranoid fella who thinks his family's in danger from the outside world. You know, moral decay or the bogeyman. So how does he protect them? He kills his family himself.
-
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : You a hunter? On your keychain, that's a sight wrench.
Lane Cantrell : Yes, sir, I hunt.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Is Tommy a hunter?
Lane Cantrell : A good one. And he lets you know it. He likes to hunt alone. He can spend days in the woods.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Does he have a... favorite spot?
Lane Cantrell : Yeah, but he wouldn't tell me where.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : You said he liked to show off. I'm sure he sent you some photos of his hunts.
Lane Cantrell : [showing them his phone] Sure.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Now, where would your Fortress of Solitude be?
-
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : While I was staring at the wall back there, I was thinking about Gilman's dilemma. He needs to put miles on the odometer. He knows we've got everything covered. He would've anticipated having to change his appearance and use a fake ID. Being a deportation officer, arresting undocumented aliens, he would have had the pick of all the fake IDs they had. Right?
FBI Agent Clinton Skye : I guess we're going back to Port Chester.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : You, Crosby, and Hana. Sheryll and me, we're going to a massage parlor.
-
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Tell us what he was like with you.
Jules : He was shy. First time, he didn't even take off his t-shirt and shorts. He didn't want any extras, just the massage. After, he said he wouldn't be back. Guess who showed up a week later. He wasn't so shy the second time.
FBI Agent Sheryll Barnes : You have sex?
Jules : Uh-huh. He came by every week; massage, then sex. If I wasn't available, he'd wait. Always he'd say that's it, he was never coming back.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : Because he felt guilty?
Jules : He said if his wife found out, he'd lose his family.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : But he kept on coming back.
Jules : He was like "why fight it?".
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : People always leave him anyway.
Jules : Yep, like that.
FBI Agent Sheryll Barnes : [her phone buzzes] They got a hit on the phony IDs.
FBI Agent Jess LaCroix : [they turn to leave] By the way, Jules, Gilman was taking an antibiotic for an STD, so... you take care of yourself.
