So far, everyone except Riley is just emotionally devastated sitting here. These people are supposed to be seasoned vets of all kinds of nastiness but they are folding like they've been in the house of horrors for months instead of one night.

PJ is sitting on the floor in another room, dumbstruck and stunned to incapacity. McBride and Maureen come up. Maureen nicely points out that what she saw, whatever it was, wasn't real. "The fear is real. What you saw is not," McBride clarifies.

"Is there any difference?"

"Yes. We can conquer or at least learn to live with our fears."

"You're right," PJ says.

"I never doubted it," which is a weird arrogant line.

Riley is trying to nail down what's happening. He thinks he has it, and asks if she touched anything, turned on a light or plugged something in. PJ turned on the light switch. McBride had turned off the lamp. Maureen, she'd just turned on the coffee machine. Riley reacts like a buffoon. "I am right. I'm right again."

He adds the extra information, that Connor just told him his MP3 player was plugged in "and he was listening [dramatic pause] to music."

"Wow, that really explains it Riley." Again, Maureen voices my exact thought. I'm getting to like her. She's like the conscience for the scriptwriters. Riley says Carl is affecting everyone through the electric circuits and he wasn't affected because where his computer was plugged in was on an separate circuit added later. "Well, Riley, you're on a pretty big limb with this," McBride offers.

Neurological activity is electrical, and the chip from the chip guns "interferes or short circuits a connection in the brain."

To prove his balance on his limb they all head down to the breaker boxes in the basement. They don't see the box but there is a hollow, a door that has been boarded up. It doesn't look like that at all, but Maureen says it looks like that. A handy destruction sledgehammer is nearby, and after three bams, they can see in. A few more and the drywall holes are big enough to step through.

The circuit-breakers are behind there - and so is an interrogation room, with a mini-electric chair. As they're in there, Connor comes back with a Russell Camp, assistant special agent in charge of the northeast division of the FBI. Connor slams him through the opening. What Connor saw helped him remember the sad sack Camp was. He'd heard of his "unconventional interrogation techniques."

Camp, with Dwight Elkins was the agent who brought Carl Robson to the house. Camp tries to explain himself, that it was an emergency situation. A five-year-old girl was still missing. We didn't know if she was dead or alive and "Carl Robson lawyered up. We needed to know."

Finally, fifth episode in, we get a glimpse of what he's good for - a solid fistful in the stomach. He beats on Camp, and has an electric arc going with the wires in his hands and aims for the testicles. That gets him talking. Turns out, during the interrogation they gave Carl a jolt and he up and had a heart attack. He wasn't the right guy; the guilty party was found a couple of weeks later,
