Lab report from Quantico came in.

They found midazolam in Jake Ferris' system.

The state doesn't test for it in their standard tox screen.

I never heard of it.

Out in LA, we get all the party dr*gs first.

And you sound disappointed.

Was Dylan buying drinks for Mark Hilliard last night?

Bartender and both friends said yes.

This is it.

He's putting it in their drinks.

Do the same screen on Hilliard.

Midazolam isn't a recreational drug.

It's a sedative used in surgery as an alternate to a propofol drip.

Chances are he got it from a hospital.

Dylan may have a medical background.

He seems to know how to dose his victims just enough to render them compliant.

If a controlled substance goes missing from a hospital, there's supposed to be a report filed with the DEA.

Searching the last six months in the Northeast region.

I got one in January...

Peekskill Medical Center, tabs of midazolam missing from the hospital pharmacy.

Who reported it?

The pharmacy manager, Joanna Reed.

She still works there.

I filed a report, the hospital investigated, they interviewed all the employees, and everyone denied it.

- Including you?

- Yes.

You seem nervous.

I have four FBI agents standing in front of me, and it kind of feels like you're accusing me.

Do you want to test me for midazolam?

I'll give you my blood and urine right now.

We don't think it was for you.

- I'm gonna call a lawyer.

- Be smart here, Joanna.

Someone used this medication to commit two serious felonies.

You get on the phone, we assume you're his accomplice.

We're not here to make a narcotics arrest.

We're hunting a fugitive.

[TENSE MUSIC]

Oh, my God.

What did he do?

How do you know him?

We were lab partners in nursing school in Massachusetts, and he moved down here for a job last summer, and he reached out to me.

To provide him with midazolam?

I'm a friend, not his drug dealer.

- Well...

- He works at a nursing home.

He was pulling a lot of overnight shifts, and when he got home in the morning, he couldn't fall asleep.

He was afraid he was gonna get fired or harm one of his patients.

He said midazolam was the only thing that helped him.

So you just gave it to him?

Ira has this way of making you feel sorry for him...
