Plot summary edit

Det. Jack Larsen is a recent transfer to the LAPD Threat Assessment Unit from the NYPD homicide division, whose confidence, strong personality, and questionable behavior has landed him in trouble before—but whose past behavior may also prove valuable in his new job. His boss, Lt. Beth Davis, is strong, focused and an expert in the field, driven by her traumatic personal experience. With the rest of their team, young but eager Det. Ben Caldwell and deceptively smart Det. Janice Lawrence, Larsen and Davis assess the threat level of cases and respond before the stalking and intimidation spirals out of control, all while trying to keep their personal obsessions at bay.

Cast and characters edit

Main edit

  • Maggie Q as Beth Davis: a victim of stalking. Born Michelle Webber, Davis changed her name following the stalking-related death of her family. She's now a Lieutenant II in the LAPD and the officer-in-charge of the Threat Assessment Unit (TAU). Introverted, Davis considers her team to be her surrogate family; and, when she's not investigating stalking cases, she's lecturing at university campuses on the subject.
  • Dylan McDermott as Jack Larsen: an LAPD Detective II. He recently transferred to the TAU from the NYPD Homicide Division to be near his son. Hired because of his friends "upstairs", Larsen had to earn the respect of Davis and her team, who thought there were more deserving candidates for his position.
  • Mariana Klaveno as Janice Lawrence: a Detective II who is second-in-command of Davis' unit.
  • Victor Rasuk as Ben Caldwell: a Detective I, and a rookie member of the TAU.
  • Elisabeth Röhm as Amanda Taylor: the mother of Jack's son. Lovers in New York, Amanda left Jack to start a new life at the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office. She currently serves as the TAU's Deputy D.A.

Detective Jack Larsen, relocating from New York, arrives for his first day on the job working for Lieutenant Beth Davis with the elite TAU team in Los Angeles. The team tackles two cases: a stalker who has an unusual affinity for setting his victims on fire, and a college student who is charged with assault but later says he was defending himself from harassment by Perry, a former roommate he had thrown out. Elsewhere, Jack himself spies on a mother and her child, later revealed to be his ex-girlfriend, Deputy D.A. Amanda Taylor, and their son Ethan Taylor. In the end, Perry follows Beth home.
2"Whatever Happened to Baby James?"Liz FriedlanderSanford Golden & Karen WyscarverOctober 8, 2014 (2014-10-08)8.17[5]
Hannah (Sammi Hanratty) is babysitting her 7-year-old brother, Thomas, and appears to be the victim of a stalker. Early evidence leads the team to a man named Barnes, who is a registered sex offender. While Barnes has several photos of Hannah, it later becomes clear that he did nothing more. The TAU acts on further clues that lead them to the theory that Thomas was the intended target and not Hannah. They find a neighboring woman who lost a son about Thomas' age. Perry returns to confront Beth, who punched him in a parking lot in the previous episode. Janice invites Jack out for drinks to celebrate the collar in the Thomas case, but he politely refuses. Near the end of the episode, Amanda gives Jack a stern warning to leave L.A. within two weeks or she will reveal a damaging secret from his past. Perry is shown to have followed Beth and makes contact with a friend of hers.
3"Manhunt"Bronwen HughesBrett MahoneyOctober 15, 2014 (2014-10-15)7.87[6]
Jack wonders aloud why Beth seems to hate him. A woman named Cara is about to marry her lesbian partner when she is shot by a sniper. Cara's ex-husband Paul (Preston Jones) is immediately suspected, as he showed up at the ceremony two hours earlier and was upset about losing his romantic relationship to a woman. But, in a twist, the team finds that Cara's father Jimmy (Louis Herthum), an LA policeman, has enemies—including Silas Martin (Michael Irby), a Special Forces veteran whom Jimmy fired for being unstable. At the end of the episode, Jack learns he only got the TAU job because his former captain in New York was owed a favor by the L.A. captain, Trent, who is Beth's boss. Beth says there were 372 applicants and Jack wasn't even in the top 20, but she acknowledges, "you're lucky you don't suck". Amanda reminds Jack that the clock is ticking on his two-week timeline to leave L.A. Jack later spies on Amanda and Ethan again, and sees that Trent is Amanda's boyfriend.
4"Phobia"Roxann DawsonHeather ZuhlkeOctober 22, 2014 (2014-10-22)7.37[7]
The TAU team tackles the case of a stalker who plays on the phobias of various women. Upon further investigation, Jack offers a theory that the suspect is motivated by excitement to terrorize his victims rather than kill them. This leads them to dating websites that connect the victims, and a past rape case in which the suspect, Chris Powell (David Chisum), was able to escape conviction. The rape victim reveals she moved to a top floor of a high-rise building because Powell has a fear of heights. After he and Beth locate the suspect in an abandoned office building, Jack uses Powell's fear to get him to reveal the location of his current victim. Elsewhere, Beth's friend Tracy talks about her romantic interest, a much younger man who is later revealed to be Perry. Perry extracts information about Beth from Tracy. He uses it to discover that "Beth Davis" did not exist until she enrolled in the police academy. It is also revealed that Perry has drawn several gruesome sketches of Beth and himself, including one in which he is choking her on a bed. At the end of the episode, Jack and Janice begin a physical romantic relationship but not until he quickly tears his photos of Amanda and Ethan off the wall.

When the girl is stalked again at the house, her ex-boyfriend and his roommate have indisputable alibis. Jack finds evidence in the basement, pointing the TAU team toward a professor of paranormal and occult studies at the college. However the professor dies when the girls throw a Halloween party at the house. Ben and Janice research the house's former owners. They call Jack to tell him the legend is only half true. Amy committed suicide, but there is no record of Greg's death. Jack discovers a hidden room in the basement. He is attacked by Greg, who is quickly neutralized by Beth. Elsewhere, Perry learns that Beth's real name is Michelle Webber. He reads an article that says Michelle had lost her family (father, mother, sister and family dog) in a house fire and she was the only survivor. A masked Perry later follows Beth around at the Halloween party, and she discovers him. He calls her Michelle in a low voice. At home, Beth calls a psychiatric institution and confirms that a certain patient number 5679 is still confined there and asks if he has had any visitors.

Next, Andrea returns home and opens a package addressed to her. It contains the dead body of her dog with a passage from the Bible about greed. Because of the Bible passage, the TAU team considers Melissa a suspect due to her father being a pastor. Andrea is then brutally attacked in a parking garage. Later at a charity event, Jack notes the font on some posters is the same as that used in the graffiti. The team then considers the artist (Michael Roark) a suspect. The artist has been sleeping with Andrea and says Andrea paid him to attack her. After the interview, Andrea's story begins to unravel. Meanwhile, Ethan bumps into Jack while Jack is watching him leave for school. Amanda confronts Jack and insists he must relocate immediately; her waiting time has ended. She mentions an incident in New York in which Jack had a romance with a witness, which she will report to Beth. Jack says if she does, Amanda will also be exposed for wrongdoing because she knew about the incident and did nothing. Jack tries to preempt any action by revealing the incident to Beth, who simply tells Jack to "fix it".
