We see a the logo for Cold Case as we see a brief flashback on what happened previously during the Season four finale, before it shoots down to an injured Lilly looking up as machines beep in the room. Quick cut to the song: All Apologies By Nirvana which is set on September 2, 1994 as three boys meet in front of the house They tease each other but one kid Jack says he can’t go to the pool but after being teased he agrees as his friends follow him . Camera pans up to the trees which show sunlight peeking through before the music fades as cops make their way to an abandoned old pool which has graffiti covered wall. In the midst of leaves among other useless junk three dead boys from the teaser are shown, but camera pans over to Jack which lays there with his eyes taped shut before it flashes to a black and white photograph

In the warehouse there are three stacked boxes bearing the names: Russo G, Costley S, Raymes J all with the boxes marked closed as an unknown man places them onto the shelf as we hear a reporters voice coming from the television nearby showing two teenager killers convicted of the crime as they make faces at the camera. Quick flash to the Television which shows one of their tattoos bearing the words Good Evil in capital letters spread across the his knuckles as the music is solemn telling us of the terrible murder that had just occurred.

Quick flash to the present as we see a picture of a man with a women next to it is a card of one of the boys now grown up indicating it’s his 30th birthday. Behind bars the hand touches it still bearing the tattoo as he begins to tie a knot before we see that he is committing suicide before his body becomes motionless. Shot of the exterior building of Headquarters someone is taking away a suitcase as the camera pans down to two legs walking through a security device as a hand picks up first the handcuffs, then gun and badge before the camera shows us that it’s Lilly all recovered from the recent shooting as she takes in a breath.

Now entering the bullpen, Vera is on the phone while Lilly’s eyes scan around nervously with immediately catches the attention of the interrogation room as a brief flash of Lilly looking scared before a gunshot is heard while Ed falls to the floor. Camera spins around to the window as we see more flashbacks of Ed taking the squad hostages during “Stalker” before he is shot by the sharpshooter by the window. Quick glance at Lilly who appears still to be traumatizing by this whole thing; as Vera announces that she showed up.

Behind him Scotty turns around as Lilly gives a nervous smile; again this is very awkward for her to be here after being shot. Walking closer he calls out Hey the word she had used for him to come in and save her. Scotty then asks if Lilly’s fine as they embrace before telling him that the doctor had just taken the stitches out, he gets sensitive knowing that she must still be in pain. Kat then hugs her as Lilly asks about the city going all out on the boarded up window. After small conversation Scotty asks if she’s ready to come back to work before a loud thud is heard scaring everyone before looking over relived that it was just a box a lady had just dropped. Kat and Vera head into the break room while the lady comes forward telling them that they killed her son Teddy Nimo; who was convicted of the killer back in 1994. Lilly’s heard about the case before being informed that Teddy killed himself, pulling out a note which the lady hands to Rush.

The note reads: I tape their eyes shut so they will stay in the dark forever just like me stop me I am the monster before showing it to Valens. After mentioning that Teddy showed have given this to his lawyer his mother said he never listen while Rush takes a look at a newspaper article. We find out that Teddy couldn’t have written it since he barely could read or write, as Rush tells her they’ll look into it but the mother doesn’t believe her before walking away. Now reading over the note, Rush remarks the note was postmarked from Philly and the other guy is doing time in Graterford so now they wonder who wrote it.

After the credits we see a man walking through the warehouse while the camera moves over to where Valens and Rush are. Valens mentions that the boys were last seen on their bikes in front of Raymes residence bodies were found a day later. Cops ran into the doers at the abandoned pool, the hangout spot of both Dylan and Teddy. Closer up on the pictures of the deceased boys while Valens reads off how they died. Now discussing Dylan and Teddy’s background we see that one was rising in foster care while the other was raised by a crack head single parent.

Hearing Stillman’s voice as he walks over speaking about the case; before telling Lilly he’s glad to have her back and if she’s started counseling yet. Lilly answers not yet while Valens informs that Joe Connelly was the assigned back in 1994 as Rush tells their boss they would have a talk with Dylan. Stillman states he’s already confessed and that witness at the school overheard them bragging the murders not seeing the point about reopening this case before Rush states there was a letter, who sent it as question documents has to hoping they’ll give them some answers. Stillman says this case is closed before Rush asks if there are any open jobs for her, before informing her that counseling isn’t an option he wants her to get it down first.

After he leaves Rush tells Valens she has to go so they won’t think she’s nuts before thanking Valens for what he did. Rush even told IAD what a great hero he was before the two share a laugh before she grabs her keys asking him to ride up to graterford Prison with her. Valens sighs but goes along anyways quick shot of the exterior of the prison before we see flashback of Dylan in 1994 before flashing to him present day. Valens places the note down in front of him before Dylan says he didn’t write that but goes on to ask if they preferred a handwriting sample to save them all time. When Rush asked if he’s heard about what happened to Teddy, Dylan makes a face but Rush isn’t impression in fact she goes on to ask him if shocking people gets him off. He responds with something snarky before repeating the contest of what the note had said but them tells the detectives that him and Teddy were seventeen and stupid believing that they won’t put them away for something they didn’t commit. Flashback to 1994 as Det. Connelly stands among the crowds as Dylan and Teddy stand there while the song: Stay away by Nirvana beings playing. The reporters are going nuts before they are being shown on television as It changes back to normal while they walk down the steps ; Teddy calls out for his mother. Jack’s father yells at them that he’ll kill him for making his son die before the two start making faces at the crowd before an unknown man comes up before another knocking the two of them onto the ground.

Present Day Dylan gets up telling them being poor put him away and that Teddy was no match him being a momma’s boy and all. Valens asks him Connelly forged Teddy’s confession but Dylan doesn’t believe that could happen. At the pool we now see Jefferies and Vera standing next to Connelly telling that Dylan is a sociopath has an IQ of 190, as a flashback to him in 1994 appears before flashing to the present. Camera shoots down to the garbage filled pool as a flashback beings with the song: If You Must by Nirvana. Connelly jumps into the abandoned pools with a flashlight looking around before seeing large words written on the side a little further he sees an arm while coming closer for an inspection. After tripping and falling in the mud Connelly gets up seeing the boys all dead with their eyes taped shut before the camera pans up the present day.

Later that night Vera is eating something out a Chinese takeout box, Rush is sitting looking at something why Miller is also eating out of a box. Rush states that Dylan’s handwriting isn’t a match to the letter and there were no forensics leading them to the murder and where the weapon was. At the same time Miller looks over seeing that Vera is eating her Kung Pao Chicken before shooting him a look, Rush doesn’t look up hearing their belittling before Rush discovers that there wasn’t any mud on any of the wheels on the bikes; Which didn’t make sense since Connelly said it had rained the night before as Vera and Miller looked over puzzled. Next we hear a sound of a waterfalls before seeing Stillman, Rush and Valens walking up a flight of steps talking more about the case; how both boys didn’t have licenses and didn’t own a car which was odd since the bodies were dumped not killed at the pool

At the top Rush states they reached out to the boys families got shut down except Jack’s family whom Valens adds lives in Fairmount adding that Miller and Jefferies are having a talk. Stillman agrees to open the case making Valens in charge as the two glance over at each other; Rush isn’t happy that she wasn’t the one in charge. At the Raymes residence they flash back and forth as Mr. Raymes is angery that they had reopened the case, but the detectives have questions where Jack played besides the pool. Mrs. Raymes gets emotional saying she should have stopped Jack from going off the block that day.

Music comes on Lithium by Nirvana is playing as she hears her son stating that he’s going to the pool. Mrs. Raymes tells him that she’s working the nightshift but Jack convinces her that he’ll be all alone before his mother lets him go past a certain neighbor’s house. Just as he kneels down to get his bike a stuffed animal is sticking out named: Little Duke which Jack tells her it keeps the dragon away. Back in the prison Lilly is standing there but Dylan states he did bully them but didn’t tell Connelly that. Then Dylan goes on telling Rush about the star witness how she ran around a week before the trial acting hysterical. Then Rush repeats the words that are on the pool water” Evil Triumphs” as Dylan repeats the quote to her.

Later on Valens is talking to the star witness, Heidi as he discovers that she’s got a real problem between fact and fiction. Heidi then goes on as a flashback occurs with the song Drain You by Nirvana is playing as Heidi stands by the lockers before Dylan and Teddy come up. She states that they killed them but Dylan teases her about something in elementary school but Heidi claims she didn’t know him. Valens knows now she didn’t hear anything of them talking about the crime, later on Valens is handing Rush a cup of coffee. Vera comes in with a file telling them on the night of the murder that a compliant came him describing a homeless man who was bloody and agitated but long gone by the next morning. Then Vera shows them the top of the letter which has the same kind of number that evidence control uses in their investigations, Rush knows now that someone in Homicide mailed the letter to Teddy.

The scene shows Rush, Jefferies and Stillman talking about finding the homeless guy. Rush states that a UNI by the name of Jade Diaz was the only person that could have transferred the letter out of evidence control two weeks before the trial. Inside Miller is taking to Jade Diaz about the letter how Connelly must have seen it and buries it. Jade tells her she is due at roll call soon but Miller finds out that Jade mailed him the letter knowing she was the only one who believed him. Turns out Connelly interviewed him for 12 hrs and had her set up the tape, which intrigues Miller knowing there was no tape at the trial.
Inside of a bar Valens and Rush walk in and head over to where Connelly is sitting, as Valens informs them that they knew about the tape the one the one that never made it to court. Connelly belittles Valens about how IAD has it hard for him which almost makes Valens want to knock him out before Rush steps forward not allowing her partner to lose all control as she asks him to talk about the tape. Heart Shaped Box by Nirvana is playing while Connelly interviews Teddy in a room before knocking Teddy to the ground. Connelly tells him that all he has to do is say he killed them and he can go home before Teddy starts crying hearing the detective asking him if he wants to go home. Sitting Teddy down again he tearfully begins speaking about seeing the kids at the pool, before Teddy repeats the story that Connelly wants to hear then crying about wanting his mother. Both Valens and Rush are skeptical about this story.
On a street filled with hookers, Vera and Jefferies walk along before causing a scene. After pulling out twenty dollars a hooker comes up to Vera informing about where to find the homeless man which we don’t see. Inside of the room the two men interrogated the homeless man while Vera holding up a plastic bag containing Little Duke inside. The man tells him that he found it from the devil before Jefferies makes him believe that he’s god and saw what he had done. The man informs him that the devil made him do it as a flashback of a younger version of him stands over seeing Dylan staying at the bodies before looking up. Back at the Prison Rush has Dylan handcuffed telling him that they have a witness; before she yells at him telling him she has no idea what it feels like to look into three little boy’s eyes and beat them. Dylan yells back he didn’t do it before admitting it but then a flashback of him yells before a flashback occurs.
Something in the way by Nirvana is playing as Dylan is spray painting the words” Evil Triumphs” on the wall before hearing something. Taking off his headphone he lifts up the cardboard seeing three dead boys lying there. Back in the prison Dylan tells Rush he has a dream about the boys being alive that they all get to start over again before Rush asks him that he saw Jack curled up with that stuffed dog which Dylan states like he was asleep. Now walking into the interrogation room Rush and Valens head in seeing Mr. Raymes sitting there but Rush isn’t looking too well in fact the memories of being in there are flooding back.
Valens informs in that they found Little Duke that it was left with him, as Rush continues to walk aimlessly while Stillman watches behind the window. Valens continues that Jack was afraid at nights since his mother worked the graveyard shift as Rush adds the fact that Jack was alone with him. Mr. Rayms laughs telling him that he loved his son, before Rush looks towards the mirror seeing a flashback of Ed Pointing a gun at her before flashing to white .Music gets terrifying while camera zooms up to Rush seeing how scared and afraid she is before seeing herself just moments before getting shot. Turning about Rush tells Valens she needs to step out.

In the bathroom Rush is washing her face before looking up to see Mrs. Raymes standing there. Not wanting anyone to think she was weak Rush blots her face pretending that there was nothing wrong. During the conversation Rush brings up the fact that Jack was holding Little Duke in his arms just like he did at night, mentions that whoever hurt him loved him as well. Rush goes on telling her that if Jack was alive today he’d be twenty four a man but couldn’t defend himself back then . Then Mrs. Raymes tells Rush on the day of Jack’s funeral as we cut to a flashback of her ironing something before finding a flashlight caked with blood. Mr. Raymes takes the flashlight telling her that he misses their son also as they embrace.

Back in the bathroom, Mrs. Raymes informs Rush that her husband is terrified out the dark and sleeps with the lights on. In the interrogation room Stillman sits down besides Henry telling him that he was screaming to get caught, when that doesn’t work the lights go out as the two see what a monster transforms him. He yells that he’ll kill someone then begging not to be alone in the dark. Henry’s expression grows evil telling the two men that Jack was a bad boy. Last flashback as Henry is chasing them down to the basement before the lights get off, as he starts wigging out from the fear. The kids laugh until Henry finds a flashlight seeing the boys by the dryer. Jack stands up calling out his name before Henry hits him before the others before the bloodied flashlight it dropped the floor. Come as you are By Nirvana is playing which Stillman and Valens escort Henry to his cell, before stepping forward into the darkness. Some evidence is being shown including mug shots from both Dylan and Teddy, before Vera and Jefferies put on the box covers but don’t include the mug shots. Outside a jail Miller and Rush are escorting Dylan out who is now a free man as he see’s Teddy’s mother before the camera zooms back depicting a younger version of Dylan who sees Teddy standing there as he slowly disappears.
