November 1, 2006 on CBS:
Tom plays the role of the Unsub, Garbage Man, and Marcus Younger in this episode of the hit CBS series. Yes, we did say "the role" and not "the roles" of those three guys. Unsub stands for "Unknown Subject," so as the episode unfolds you will discover that Tom's character, Marcus Younger, is the bad guy in the show. The unidentifiable man in the mask, in the shadows, and leading the victims around is Tom. You will see and hear him throughout the episode, but in only two scenes will you see his face (sans mask, etc.).
Younger is a disturbing character who kidnaps three girls and places them in a bomb shelter/cellar below his house. The character was conceived of by the writer, Andrew Wilder, by taking bits and pieces from three actual cases. Unfortunately, abductions of this type happen far too frequently. Mr. Wilder's twisted genius, and the unsettling nature of this fictional story, is that the goal of, and purpose for, the abductions not be sexual in nature. It's a twist that will chill you to the bone.
The director of the episode was Matt Earl Beesley. Matt is truly an "actor's director" and was instrumental in helping Tom find the character.
Tom's scenes were filmed during five days from September 15th - 26th. The episode is entitled "North Mammon" and is episode number 207.
