They uncover surveillance footage that shows the 19-year-old sophomore walking toward the lakefront, then disappearing. Their around-the-clock search comes to a shocking conclusion. Then, Detectives Morris and Skrip pull double duty: Morris hunts down an alleged gang member who vanished after a drug deal goes bad, putting his own family in danger. Skrip has just minutes to save the life of a woman who threatens to jump from a bridge.

Worried Sick / Silent Night

The baby is epileptic and without her daily medication she could suffer a fatal seizure. Meanwhile, Detectives Nari Isaakson and Jose Diaz race through some of the city's toughest neighborhoods looking for an 86-year-old man who vanished on the way to a Christmas party. He suffers from Parkinson's disease and dementia. With a blizzard barreling toward Chicago, detectives have only a few hours to find him.

Mother's Day / Somebody Knows

With Mother's Day approaching, Det. Bob Berent meets with another anguished family. The son and daughter of a 48-year-old Iraqi immigrant returned from work to find her gone. She has no ID and no money, and her children believe she may have delusions that she can return to Baghdad. Det. Nari Isakson joins a search that spans from forest preserves to O'Hare Airport. Meanwhile, Detectives Pam Childs and Joe Struck hit the streets in search of a 48-year-old woman. Her two grown daughters fear she is the victim of foul play. As Childs and Struck interview witnesses and possible suspects, they uncover startling new evidence: it's clear that someone knows something.
