Épisode Kidnapping S02E18 - The Pretender Saison 2

	The OceanSide Hospital - Sunnyvale - California
Paramedic	You got a bed available?
Doctor	Trauma three.
Paramedic	Right.
Doctor	I need a chest tube and a set up tray.
PA	Dr Franklin, please call the pharmacist on extension 23. Dr Franklin, call the chief pharmacist on 23, stat.
Dr Hargadon	Jarod, heard your transfer came in.
Jarod	Yes, I’m sorry to be leaving.
Dr Hargadon	At least you didn’t miss the fireworks. Did you hear about this?
Jarod	No.
Dr Hargadon	Dr Mitchell was arrested last night.. for killing that administrator and making it look like a Panalex OD. I heard D Jekyll even confessed. Wonder how they got that out of him.
Jarod	Well, I guess a taste of his own medicine.
Paramedic	Bring him on down here.
Paramedic 2	Sport-utility versus pedestrian. John Doe. Pulse 120, BP 82 over 60. Respiration, 30.
George	Patrick, Patrick.
Paramedic 2	Intermittent awareness. Somebody said he was running to a phone booth three blocks from here when he got nailed.
George	Patrick.
Paramedic	Should’ve let his fingers do the walking.
George	Patrick, Patrick.
Jarod	Sir, can you hear me?
George	Save Patrick.
Dr Hargadon	Okay, we’re losing him.
Jarod	No, this man’s a fighter.
George	Got to save my son. You’ve got to save my son Patrick.
Dr Hargadon	Okay, he’s responding. Normal sinus rhythm .
Jarod	Could be a cranial injury. Call radiology and get a head CT, stat.
Dr Hargadon	This is Dr Hargadon, I need a CT, stat please.
Jarod	Patrick. Kara, take over from here.
	At the phone booth - Outside
Jarod	Hello.
Kidnapper	The mysterious Mr Harper. Huh, so that’s how you look without the beard.
Jarod	What do you want?
Kidnapper	Cooperation. Two million by this time tomorrow or the next time you see little Patrick, he’ll be wearing a toe tag.
Jarod	I’ll give you whatever you want. Please, don’t hurt my son.
Kidnapper	The rules are simple. No law, no media. Break a rule, Patrick dies.
Jarod	I’ll pay you. Just please, don’t hurt my son.
Kidnapper	Look behind the phone book. Two million in 24 hours. I’ll call you with the details.
Jarod	Tell Patrick that his father love…
	*Flashback*
Man	Hey!
	End of flashback
Jarod	George Harper. Patrick. You’re going to be okay Patrick. (to a person who is threatening him) George Harper.
Alomar	You’re lucky I don’t kill you now. Your hands. Who the hell are you?
Jarod	George Harper.
Alomar	You tell that to someone who’s not his head of security. Now let’s try this again . Who are you?
	The Centre
Broots	That’s Jarod all right. Clarkston Pharmaceuticals. They make a very popular antidepressant called Panalex. Jarod was employed there for three weeks.
Sydney	Who did he help?
Broots	Nobody.
Miss Parker	Well, he wasn’t stealing the formula for Flintstone vitamins.
Broots	Hold onto your jockeys. A major shareholder in Clarkston is…..
Miss Parker (seeing Raines come in)	Mr Raines?
Raines	Everyone needs a nest egg. Continue.
Broots	Um…well uh, it’s a…. solid lead.
Sydney	It means nothing till we find Jarod’s emotional purpose.
Raines	Jarod’s purpose is to harass the Centre. He’s after my stock.
Sydney	If he were after your stock, you’d be broke. Jarod is driven by altruism.
Raines	You want him out there, trying to help the little guy.
Sydney	The answer is the little guy. If you want to find Jarod, find the person he’s trying to help.
	The place where Patrick is prisoner
Patrick	I want my dad, I want my dad.
	The OceanSide Hospital - Sunnyvale - California
PA	Dr Gordon to the OR, post op. Dr Gordon to the OR, post op.
Alomar	Is he gonna make it?
Jarod	It’s too soon to tell. But he’s going to be in that bed for at least two more weeks.
Alomar	Look doc, I was a little rough on you back there, but….
Jarod	You want Patrick back just as much as his father does. I understand.
Alomar	You said the kidnapper left a cell phone for you. I’ll handle it from here.
Jarod	Mr Alomar, he saw me. By becoming gr Harper, I bought that boy one more day of life. Why don’t you tell me how it happened?
Alomar	Mr Harper got the note after 3. Called me, said to meet him at the phone booth. A limo drops off Patrick every morning at school. Picks him up in the afternoon. Today, the driver found only this.
Jarod	Did you talk to this limo driver?
Alomar	He found the backpack where Patrick usually waits. We’ve known this guy for years, he’s been with us a long time. But I’ve run a new background check on him, just in case. Mr Harper’s ready to pay off this bastard. But I know how these people think. I’m ex-FBI. Worked a few abductions. More than likely, he’ll…. he’ll probably kill Patrick, just so he won’t ID him.
Jarod	He is a professional. He wants us to feel a total loss of control so he can fulfil his fantasy of power.
Alomar	What do you know about kidnappers doctor?
Jarod	When I was a boy, I was stolen from my parents. I can help you get Patrick back, but you’re going to have to trust me. Otherwise, by this time tomorrow, Patrick could be dead.
Alomar	Keep the phone, for now.
	Flashback
Young Jarod	A lunch box!
Margaret	You’re gonna be starting special school soon Jarod.
Young Jarod	Is that why those teachers came to see me yesterday?
Margaret	Yes, it is. They say you have a gift. Course I already knew you were smart as a whip. You’re gonna love it Jarod. I am so proud of you. I’m the proudest mommy in the world.
	End of flashback
	Hayvenhurst School
Judith	Is there something I can help you with?
Jarod	You’re a teacher?
Judith	Yes.
Jarod	I’m gr Harper.
Judith	Oh! This is quite an honour . I…I’m Judith Peck. Oh, Hayvenhurst is a much better place thanks to your scholarship fund sir. You’ve… you’ve opened the school to a number of disadvantaged students. I’m sorry if I seem a little surprised to see you…
Jarod	I understand. I’m here about my son.
Judith	This is Martin Benton. He oversees security for the school. I’m so sorry about this Mr Harper.
Benton	Nothing like this had ever happened here sir. I…. I’m shocked. I strongly urge you to call the police.
Jarod	I can’t. That’s one of the kidnapper’s demands. If I could just find something, … anything that would help.
Judith	Well, he was in session after school. Um, reading studies I think.
Jarod	Reading studies… for the dyslexia.
Judith	Right. He gets out around 3.
Benton	With the special kids. Most of the others are gone by 2.
Jarod	He doesn’t want to be singled out. He hates being special.
Judith	Right, he just wants to be a regular kid. That’s why he’s always reading comic books in class.
Benton	This is where he usually waits for his ride, isn’t that right Judith?
Judith	Right, is there anything we can do Mr Harper?
Jarod	Yes, nothing. Don’t contact the police or the media. I beg of you. Patrick’s life depends on it.
Judith	Of course.
	A bench at school
	*Flashaback*
Jarod (to himself)	I was stolen, taken from my home in the middle of the night.
	*End of Flashback*
Jarod (on phone)	It’s all coming back to me Sydney.
Sydney (on phone)	Repressed memories. They often resurface during traumatic events Jarod. But those memories themselves they are not as important as how you face them.
Jarod	How do you face yours? How do you live with what happened to me?
Sydney	Jarod, nothing can justify what happened to you. But what you’ve been doing out there in the wide world for the last two years… that tells me something right….
Jarod	Came out of something very very wrong. It’s like a nightmare.
	*Flashback*
Jarod	It all keeps coming back in pieces.
	Flashback
Jarod	First the fear..
	Flashback
Jarod	…and then the panic. The shooting through your nerves kind.
	Flashback
Jarod	I’m a child again. It’s … it’s dark…. and I’m alone. All I can think about is seeing my family again.
	Flashback
Jarod	I want my world to be like it was.
	Flashback
	The place where Patrick is prisoner
Patrick	When can I see my daddy?
Kidnapper	Harper will pay, and you’ll get your cut. Tomorrow. Yeah, the kid’s having his last meal right now.
	The Centre
Miss Parker	You’re late.
Broots	Uh… Clarkston Pharmaceuticals… um, Jarod was a national rep in uh… Cupertino and Sunnyvale, California.
Sydney	Have you found any evidence of child abduction?
Miss Parker	Why would he Syd?
Sydney	A hunch.
Raines	Play the tape Mr Broots.
Broots	Syd, they made me do this.
Jarod	How do you live with what happened to me?
Sydney	Jarod, nothing can justify what happened to you. But what you’ve been doing out there in the wide world for the last two years… that tells me s….
Raines	And for two years I’ve been saying your personal connection to Jarod has hindered this pursuit. This proof.
Sydney	My conversations with Jarod are nothing new.
Raines	They keep us from him.
Sydney	They keep him from disappearing.
Miss Parker	Sydney… he’s right.
	The OceanSide Hospital - Sunnyvale - California
Alomar	Two million. I got what I could from pt’s room, like you asked. But I still don’t see how it helps.
Jarod	If I’m going to be gr Harper I have to understand his life, and his son’s. I don’t want the kidnapper to catch me in a lie.
Alomar	Limo driver’s clean. Checked some past business associates for possible motives. Nothing. FBI files show no kidnappers with a similar MO. At least not in the last five years. All we can do is hope this bastard keeps his word and we’ll have Patrick back tomorrow.
Jarod	This is Patrick’s mother?
Alomar	Chloe, great lady. Passed away in ’96. Patrick loves puzzles.
Jarod	Hmmm. They help him to think.
Alomar	That’s what he always says. I bought him this one. Sometimes when Mr Harper’s working late, I help Patrick out. Yeah, well kind of, kid’s way faster than me.
Jarod	You okay?
Alomar	Those abductions I worked for the bureau, the things some of these guys do to those kids, it’s just, uh…..
Jarod	We’ll get him back.
	Dream of Jarod’s abduction
PA	Dr Stanton to CCU, stat, Dr Stanton to CCU stat.
	Abduction dream of grown up Jarod
Harper	Patrick. Patrick.
Alomar	Jarod?
Jarod	He’s waking up. Mr Harper, my name is Jarod.
Alomar	He’s going to help us Mr Harper.
Harper	Is Patrick here?
Jarod	No, sir, he’s not. But he’s going to be just fine, I promise you.
	The Centre
Miss Parker	Syd, we’ve been ordered to Sunnyvale, Broots found this. Could be Jarod’s handiwork. We leave in a hour. Raines is sending Willie with us to keep us honest. But what he doesn’t know is that Sam is already on his way.
Sydney	I’ll be ready.
Miss Parker	I hate myself for siding with Raines, but the creep’s got a point. This emotional umbilical you have with Jarod is… becoming a problem.
Sydney	In your eyes.
Miss Parker	Jarod is doing your work out there, isn’t he?
Sydney	I could say the same about you.
Miss Parker	Mnnnn. His mind games don’t work on me anymore., You cant make that claim.
Sydney	Like you said, we’ve been ordered to Sunnyvale.
	The OceanSide Hospital - Sunnyvale - California
Harper	Has the kidnapper called? Where’s my boy?
Alomar	He’ll be back by the end of the day sir.
Harper	When he was a newborn, I’d go into his room late at night to check on him. I’d stand over him until my eyes adjusted to the dark. And when I’d see him breathe, I’d know he was okay.
Jarod	New parents, they must be very nervous.
Harper	New? I still check on Patrick every night. But what good did it do? I should’ve been there.
Jarod	If you had been there, you would’ve found the backpack, not your driver. That’s all.
Harper	You know, since Chloe died, it’s just been Patrick and me. I lost her in a room just like this. I promised her we’d be a strong family. Jarod….
Jarod	I’ll get him back.
	Hayvenhurst School / A comics books shop nearby the school
Benton	Need some help?
Jarod	I’m sorry, I was just trying to put myself into Patrick's shoes.
Judith	Well, you’re in the right place. He always reads his comic books right here.
	*Jarod pretending to be Patrick*
Alomar	You must be lost. Kidnapper calls in less than two hours. I went to see Harper, you weren’t there.
Jarod	What are you doing here?
Alomar	Following you. Why aren’t you at the hospital?
Jarod	I have two hours left. There’s still some time.
Alomar	Time for what?
Jarod	For this. He was here. He was buying comic books here. The kidnapper grabbed him over here. He emptied out the backpack put the note inside, and he left it across the street for the driver to find.
Alomar	And nobody saw a thing.
Jarod	Almost nobody.
	Jarod's lair
Alomar	So that’s how ER doctors do it, sugar rush.
Jarod	There. Patrick.
	Flashback
Jarod	No plates.
Alomar	Tape’s useless. Ski mask covered his face. We’re down to the wire. Got it.
Jarod	I want to check on Harper before I get the call.
Alomar	I almost bought your little blowup back there. That was my office on the phone. When I ran the background check on the driver, I ran one on you too. You’re a tough man to track Dr Pearce. Maybe that’s ’cause you died in 1979. You didn’t pretend to by Harper in that phone booth. You made a deal with the kidnapper. How much is he paying you?
Jarod	Look, I know that you think about Patrick like he was your own son. You probably saw some horrible things happen to children when you worked for the FBI. You’re afraid the same thing is gonna happen to him. But I swear to you I want to help this boy. (the phones rings) And I cant help him unless I answer this phone call. Please trust me.
Kidnapper	Same phone booth, ten minutes.
Jarod	Ten minutes.
Sam	Miss Parker, I’ve got him. Go go.
Alomar	Kidnapper’s probably watching. Get off here, I’ll maintain visual. You pull anything, I’ll kill you.
Jarod	I’d expect nothing less.
	A phone booth
Jarod	I’m here, I’m here.
Kidnapper	Take the money and cross the street to the green garbage can.
Jarod	When do I see Patrick?
Kidnapper	As soon as I get paid.
Jarod	How do I know you’re telling the truth? Where is my son? Hello?
Kidnapper	Harper, I said no law.
Jarod	What are you talking about?
Kidnapper	The deal is off, the boy is dead.
Jarod	No! No! No! You’re a business man, just name your price, I’ll pay it.
Kidnapper	Another two million in three hours. I see one badge and your son stops breathing.
Jarod	I want to talk to my son. I want to know that he’s still alive.
Patrick	I love you Daddy.
Kidnapper	Intelligent boy you got there Mr Harper. Who says he needs special ed? Keep the phone, I’ll call.
Alomar	What happened? Who the hell was that?
Jarod	One of the kidnappers. Look he wants another two million in three hours. You’ve got to get it. Now you know who you can trust.
	The OceanSide Hospital - Sunnyvale - California
Harper	Can we trust this guy? How do we know we can trust this guy?
Jarod	We still have two hours left.
Harper	Oh God.
Jarod	Exponential algorithms.
Harper	Yeah, I used to try and solve those as a boy. It always took my mind someplace else.
Jarod	Hmmm, just like Patrick uses puzzles.
Harper	I never looked at it like that.
Jarod	We’re going to find him. He knew. He knew, he said it to me just before he hung up. He knew that Patrick was in special classes. He knew that he would be held after school late. But how did he know he would be there alone?

Miss Parker	Must be someone in this godforsaken hospital who’s seen Jarod. Find anything.
Broots	Bingo.
Miss Parker	Excuse me. Have you seen this man?
Dr Hargadon	Jarod? Sure. Just a Alomar. Yes this is Dr Hargadon. I need to page extension 7477 please. It’s an emergency.
Miss Parker	So you know Jarod?
Dr Hargadon	Are you a friend?
Miss Parker	Old friend.
Dr Hargadon	He’s upstairs. I’m headed that way, come on. Jarod’s transfer came in today but he still has, uh, one more patient. Well, it looks like he had the patient moved.
Miss Parker	This is dicey Syd. If I know Jarod, he’s right under my nose.
Broots	Well, a swing and a miss.
Miss Parker	Sam, sweep the other floors, then meet me downstairs.
Sam	Yes Miss Parker.
Miss Parker	Broots, Sydney, come with me.

Jarod	Psst. Thank you.
Dr Hargadon	You obviously got my page.
Jarod	Thank you for helping me keep my work a secret.
Dr Hargadon	Wait a minute. You’re the one that got Dr Mitchell to confess?
Jarod	Yes. I’m sorry I had to lie to you before. But I knew the pharmaceutical companies would send their lawyers after me.
Dr Hargadon	Lawyers! Well that explains that woman’s attitude problem.

Miss Parker	We’re not leaving. Check the employee records Broots. Find out where they were sending Jarod’s cheques.
Broots	Okay.
Sydney	His last patient was transferred.
Miss Parker	It’s too neat Syd. Your boy usually thumbs his nose at me. Could you go!? Egghead’s still in town. I got a gut feeling.
	Jarod's lair
Jarod	Dear Parents. In an effort to ease congestion while the city completes roadwork near the school pickup for the students will be moved from the south end of the school to the north on Tuesday the 17th. Sincerely Martin Benton.
	Hayvenhurst School
Jarod	Why don’t you take the van?
Benton	Hey hey! Don’t! Don’t! Hey! No! No! Help! Don’t! Hey! Don’t! Hey hey, get me… get me outta this.
Jarod	Relax, you’re being kidnapped, just like my son.
Benton	Harper?
Jarod	How much is he paying you? How much is my son’s life worth?
Benton	Harper please. Please get me outta here.
Jarod	It’s too early to beg. Kidnapping victims, they usually last 5.8 minutes before desperation sets in. First they have to face the overwhelming fear. Just like my son, you’re wondering, where’ he gonna take me? Is he going to kill me, or is he just going to torture me?
Benton	Let me go.
Jarod	You’re begging again. You moved the student pickup to the north side of the school. But you made sure Patrick didn’t know about it. He was out there all alone. You supervised his kidnapping didn’t you?
Benton	I don’t know what you’re talking about.
Jarod	I have a surveillance video from where my son buys his comic books. Now you tell me. How much is he paying you?
Benton	A hundred thousand.
Jarod	Where is Patrick?
Benton	He’ll kill me. No! Oh.
Jarod	Not if I do it first. Where is he?!
Benton	Money or no money, he’s gonna kill Patrick. Ow! No! Aah aah.
Jarod	Now, where does that leave you now? Where is he?
Benton	He’s in an abandoned warehouse.
Jarod	Across the street from the phone booth. He was watching me.
Benton	Yes yes.
	Jarod's lair
Alomar	Jarod, what’s happening. We got less than 30 minutes.
Jarod	I know where Patrick is. Where are you?
Alomar	At your place.
Jarod	Has anyone been there looking for me?
Alomar	No.
Jarod	I’ll meet you there.

Jarod	Manny.
Alomar	Jarod run! Run!
Jarod	No.

Jarod	Ow. Miss Parker, there’s a little boy. He’s been kidnapped, he needs my help.
Miss Parker	Won’t work this time.
Jarod	They’ll kill him!
Miss Parker	Let the authorities take care of it.
Jarod	They don’t know about it!
Miss Parker	Get Jarod to the car.
Jarod	Sydney, please. Please don’t let this happen! This is just how they stole me when I was a little boy! Please!
	Flashback
Young Jarod	I wanna see my mommy! Let me go!
	End of flashback
Miss Parker	It’s over.
Jarod	How do you face your past Sydney?
Sam	Miss Parker.
Willie	I’ll take it from here.
Miss Parker	Like hell you will.
Willie	If you have a problem, talk to Mr Raines.
Miss Parker	Back off!
Sydney	Don’t Willie!
Sam	Ow! I’m hit, I’m hit.
Miss Parker	Jarod stop!
Sydney	Parker! Please.
	The Warehouse
Kidnapper	Now, I’m gonna kill your son. And you get to watch. Think you can handle that Mr Harper?
Jarod	I’m not…. Mr Harper.
	Flashback
Young Jarod	Mama! Help me!
Margaret	I am so proud of you. I’m the proudest mommy in the world.
	End of flashback
Jarod	It’s over Patrick. It’s over. It’s over.
	The OceanSide Hospital - Sunnyvale - California
Patrick	Dad.
Harper	Patrick, oh, oh. Let me look at you. Oh, how are you huh?
Patrick	I’m good.
Harper	Oh, oh oh oh oh.
	The Centre
Raines	Unacceptable. Jarod escaped because of you Miss Parker.
Sydney	Not at all. Parker caught Jarod. Willie botched it. That’s what my report will say.
Miss Parker	How do you think my father will react when he reads that?
Raines	This isn’t over.
Miss Parker	You can bet your bald head on that. I can fight my own battles Sydney.
Sydney	I knew you’d do the right thing with Jarod.
Miss Parker	You know, Sydney, sometimes I wonder if you do want him out there, helping the little guy.
Sydney	I want him back as much as you do, I just don’t want him dead.
	The OceanSide Hospital - Sunnyvale - California
Alomar	Those people who were looking for you, they think you’re pretty valuable. As far as I’m concerned you died in 1979.
Jarod	Wow. Are you looking for this?
Patrick	That’s the piece.
Harper	Yea.
Jarod	All right. Looks like a perfect fit.
Harper	Hey, you’ll make a great father someday.
