Lacy and her assistant Darren meet with the FBI at a downtown office building while Bannick watches through a telescope from a hotel nearby. When he sees they have all assembled, he returns to his secret office, gathers all the data from his computers there, removes the hard drives, and leaves his security cameras active to monitor for intrusion.
Meanwhile, Lacy and Darren fill in the newly formed joint task force on the case against the judge. They make plans to get a court order that will allow them to start surveillance on the judge.
Bannick makes his next move. He puts the three poems Jeri sent him referencing his murders in an envelope and hand-delivers them to her door.
Realizing Bannick has identified her, Jeri packs a bag and gun and flees, driving south. There is a car behind her, which seems strange because there is no other traffic, but when she turns north, the other car does not follow. In serious need of sleep, she pulls into a motel and gets a room.
Twenty minutes later, Bannick, following the tracker he planted on her car, pulls into the parking lot outside the motel. Breaking into their computer system, he finds Jeri’s room and books the one across the hall from her.
