FBI

He's 17, Dan.

Don't you think he's outgrown smiley faces?

Yeah, but I'm hoping it'll trigger

a nostalgic moment.

Hey, perfect timing.

Chocolate chip pancakes and eggs, your favorite.

Yeah, I think I'll pass.

Come on, Jake.

Last night, you said that's what you wanted.

Yeah, last night, it sounded good.

This morning, not so much.

I've gotta go. I'm gonna be late.

How 'bout I give you a ride? I'm good.

See you.

It's like I don't even know him anymore.

All the time I spent on the job,

stuff I missed...

Just thought now that I'm retired,

we'd all spend more time together.

We will, Dan.

We will.

He's just separating from us right now.

It's what he's supposed to do. I know, but it sucks.

Ugh, it really does.

Doesn't he have geometry today?

First period.

I'll catch up and give it to him.

Who knows?

Maybe it'll score me some points.

Jake.

Jake!

Jake! Jake!

Dan Osborne.

Many of you have heard that name, and for good reason.

Dan retired from the New York office in 2018

after a career that was the stuff of legend.

25 minutes ago, Dan's son Jake was taken

just blocks from their home.

There's no street cams in the neighborhood,

but we got teams heading out to canvass for witnesses

and gather security footage from nearby houses.

Let's check if similar abductions

occurred in the area, but we'll keep in mind

that Jake is the son of an FBI agent.

Dan did tours in counter intel, violent crimes,

fugitive unit, drug branch.

No doubt he made enemies along the way.

Let's see if any of them made credible threats against him.

Let's also look into the kid, friend groups, social media.

Maybe what happened came from something in his life.

Bottom line is, this is one of our own, people.

Let's find Jake Osborne.

Hey, Dan.

Lori, I am so sorry.

We've been meaning to have you over,

but not like this.

Listen, I want you both to know

that we have already hit the ground running.

When Jake was little, all his heart problems--

that's when I was afraid we'd lose him.

He can't be that far, and we're using every resource.

We're monitoring your phones for a ransom call,

and techs will get Jake's DNA and prints.

He's my only child.

That'll be my people.

Dan, do you have any enemies you think could have done this?

Already on it.

I wrote down a dozen names or so--

men I put away who hate my guts,

but even these guys have a code.

I can't see them doing something like this,

or maybe I just don't wanna see it.

Okay, I'm gonna shoot this over to our ASAC.

What about Jake? Has he had any problems?

I mean issues with school, drugs.

Nothing like that. He's a good kid.

An "A" student, an athlete.

I don't think this is about Jake.

Do you mind if we take a look in his bedroom?

So Dan Osborne retires after a great run at the bureau

and now this?

I mean, do you ever worry that someone that you put away

might come after you?

Not really. Me neither.

Maybe we should.

You're assuming this has to do with the father

and not the son.

Yeah, the kid seems pretty together.

Yeah, well my parents thought I was together

when I was that age.

Meanwhile, I'm sneaking out at night to jazz clubs in Harlem.

Really?

I mean, I guess I was pretty wild at 17 too.

Oh, yeah? Wild how?

Hey, OA.

There's gotta be, like, $5,000 here.

I don't think he got that from saving his allowance.

What is that?

Is that Jake's?

Do you know where he got this?

No.

So the burning question--

where did Jake get all that moola?

Does he have some innocent side hustle

like selling vintage clothes like my nephew does,

or is he up to something sketchy?

What did we get from Jake's email and phone traffic?

Who'd he text this morning?

Cellular analysis said the phone

was too damaged to get it working.

Mm-hmm, well,

let's get the text from the cellular provider then.

We can't.

Jake was using an encrypted texting app.

Uh-huh.

Where are we with Jake's friends?

So far, agents have interviewed three of his friends.

All three say that Jake is a good kid.

And do our agents believe them?

No.

Well, this just gets sketchier by the second.

Come on, people. What is Jake into?

I don't know, but somebody was into it with him.

ERT found Jake's prints all over that money,

but they found another set too from a student at the school.

Hey.

Hey. Hi.

How did you find me?

Uh, spy satellite.

How you doing?

You know, Dan is the best agent

I ever worked with.

I was his ASAC at drug branch,

but I was the one learning from him.

I wasn't just his boss. We became friends.

And when Jake was ten,

he had to have open-heart surgery.

Then a second and a third.

No one knew if he'd live or for how long.

And I was there...

for all of it.

What can I do?

Keep me looped in on this case.

Give it to me straight. I wanna know everything--

leads, rumors, theories, all of it.

Of course. Here's the latest.

However Jake got that money, another student is involved--

a Beth Kimball.

It's so awful about Jake.

I mean, what do you think happened to him?

You and Jake talked on the phone a lot.

What's your relationship? We're friends.

Beth, we think he got himself into trouble.

Why don't you tell us about it?

Trouble? No, Jake's a good guy.

Yeah, we keep hearing that, but it doesn't quite fit

with the 5 grand he had stashed away.

I don't know anything about that.

Really?

Because it looks like you counted it for him.

Your prints were all over that cash, Beth.

How'd you get my fingerprints?

That background check you passed

to be a camp counselor?

Where did the money come from, Beth?

Will this get back to my parents?

Of course it will, which is absolutely

the least of your worries right now.

The money.

Jake and I were selling study drugs to our friends.

Adderall, Ritalin-- We know what study drugs are.

What else were you selling?

Well, that was it. I swear.

Look, we weren't hurting anyone.

It was just a way to make a little money.

Who was Jake's supplier?

He never told me.

Did he have trouble with anybody

he was buying from or selling to?

Beth?

Jake was abducted. You're his friend.

If you know something, you need to tell us.

My boyfriend found out I was selling.

He got...kind of upset. Blamed Jake for it.

When did he find this out?

Yesterday, but I talked him down.

He would never hurt Jake.

This boyfriend, what's his name?

Warren. Warren Cooper.

All right, y'all, paint me a picture of Warren Cooper.

He's a senior, varsity wrestler.

He's got a black belt in tae kwon do.

The school principal says

he's been suspended twice for fighting.

One of those fights led to an arrest for assault,

but the prosecutor gave him a second chance

and didn't file charges.

Sounds like he has anger issues.

Can we place him at the scene?

Not yet, but it looks like he sent encrypted texts
