Apparently, Maddie has been mistaken for another woman--an FBI informant of the same name also staying at the hotel that night. Shaken, she finishes her business and returns home to St. Louis. Days later, Maddie is attacked a second time. McCabe returns and convinces her that the best way to catch the killer is to use her as bait.
