%% * AttemptedRape: [[spoiler:Jakob Marosi, to Jesse in the past. [[BigDamnHeroes Jesse's father saves him just in time. ]] ]]
* CriminalMindGames: Jakob Marosi, a convicted serial killer doing life, appears to entertain himself by messing with the family of Jesse Wells and the police by falsely claiming he killed Jesse then leading them on a wild goose chase for the body.
* FalseConfession: Jakob Marosi confessed to killing Jesse. As he did kill other children, this was believed until Jesse's blood turns up at another crime scene. It's revealed he'd targeted Jesse and really did plan to murder him, but was stopped by Frank intervening. He then confessed just to screw with Jesse's family.
