Millennium Season 1 Episode 19

Millennium Season 1 Episode 19

“Paranoia is justa kind of awareness, and awareness is justa form of love.” Charles Manson

Attorney Al Pepper walks through a supermarket parking lot carrying a bag of groceries. A teenager, Sam, addresses Pepper and extends an open palm. Frank exits the supermarket and sees the two men. Suddenly, a bolt of light emanates from Sam’s palm, knocking Pepper to the ground. Frank runs towards the scene, passing through panicking shoppers. When he arrives at Pepper’s side, he discovers a handgun lying at Sam’s feet.

As the story unfolds in flashback, Peter Watts investigates the death of Eddy Pressman, whose body was discovered inside a suburban bungalow. The corpse is surrounded by occult symbolism, but the markings are incoherent and disorganized. Watts telephones Frank for advice. Frank, still shaken by the death of Bob Bletcher, is reluctant to continue his work. When the conversation ends, Watts notices Sam peering into the bungalow’s second story window. When Watts approaches the window, the teenager is nowhere in sight.

Catherine convinces Frank that he must return to the Millennium Group. Later, Watts shows Frank a photograph taken outside the entrance to the building where the murder occurred. Standing amongst the crowd is Sam, the only face looking directly into the camera. Meanwhile, police take a man named Martin into custody after he slashes the throat of a nanny. Frank senses that, somehow, the suspect is connected to Bletcher’s death.

Despite the overwhelming evidence facing Martin, Frank begins to suspect that police may have arrested the wrong man. One night, Frank experiences a nightmare in which Bletcher, his throat slit, attempts to speak to him. When Frank awakens, he tells Catherine he may have lost faith in his ability to see into the minds of serial killers.

Mike Atkins, Frank’s mentor, is called into the case by someone impersonating Frank’s voice on the telephone.

All of the evidence against Martin begins to unravel: witnesses are unable to pick him out of a police lineup, a murder weapon disappears, and a lab is unable to detect blood stains on his jacket. Frank is approached by Martin’s attorney, Al Pepper (the man seen in the opening teaser). Pepper proposes a business partnership–an offer Frank quickly rejects. Later, as he stands before Judge Myers, Martin claims it was he who killed Bob Bletcher.

Frank concludes that Eddy Pressman was ritualistically slaughtered to attract the involvement of the Millennium Group.

Martin’s case is transferred to Seattle. Alone in a jail cell, Martin runs a razor blade across an artery. A medical examiner determines that the wound is superficial and that Martin died of an aneurysm. Frank, however, suspects Pepper’s involvement.

Someone summons Frank and Watts to Atkins’ hotel room. Inside, the men discover Atkins’ body, a sacrificial knife protruding from his chest. The perpetrator runs down a fire escape and makes his way to a nearby supermarket. Frank gives chase, following the unidentified man into the store. Frank spots Pepper pushing a cart at the other end of a grocery aisle. As Pepper pushes the cart, Frank parallels his movement. When Pepper’s cart again comes into view, it is being pushed by Martin. As the cart appears again, it is being pushed by Lucy Butler (see previous episode).

Pepper makes his way into the market’s parking lot, where he is approached and killed by Sam (as seen in the teaser). Afterward, Sam tells Frank that Pepper “suffered the consequence of his own error,” and that any benefit to the Black family was purely incidental. Frank concludes that Sam is part of a larger mystery.
