Our team is called in when Samantha Harris, an 8 year old white girl is abducted right outside her home in a Cleveland suburb. While canvassing the abduction site Beth notices a distraught African American woman who we soon learn is searching for her 8 year old daughter, Aisha, who was abducted nine days ago from a low income part of town. She questions why no one is looking for her daughter but all local resources are making a huge effort to look for Samantha. While digging further we realize that both abductions are related, as eye witnesses from both crimes describe seeing a blue color van leave the abduction site. We also learn that there have been two prior abductions of 8 year old African American girls around the same area that Aisha was abducted. Suspecting that our unsub most likely assaulted and killed these girls the team triangulates a possible location of where our unsub may have dumped the bodies. They also try to make sense of why our unsub would abduct three African American girls and then a white girl. We track a secluded dump location where the bodies of two African American girls wrapped in sheet and buried with dolls are found. Autopsy reveals no signs of sexual abuse or broken bones. Our unsub isn't a pedophile. When they track the serial number of the dolls they realize that our unsub is purchasing the dolls a week or two after each abduction. He's trying to win their love. Our unsub turns out to be a divorced white man who had an African American daughter whom he kidnapped from her mother. He killed her and is now trying to replace his daughter by abducting African American girls and giving them dolls to win their love. When it doesn't work out, he kills and buries them with the doll. When he found out that Aisha doesn't play with dolls but has a best friend who happens to be white that's when he kidnapped Samantha. Cooper and his team must race to track him down before it's too late for the two little girls.
