David Cougar's Millennium Character Profile
Profile
The partner of Eric Swan, David Couger was tortured and assassinated by The Millennium Group when he refused to reveal the location of Taylor Watts.
Couger was traced to a darkened room with shelving covered in plastic sheeting. Containers of liquid on the shelves, presumably the disinfectant known as Spectrumaldehyde. When a SWAT team entered the house and searched upstairs, after breaking down a door they discovered Couger sat on a bed, facing away from them. An electrical lead was clamped to the man's thumbs. His thumb nails were bloody.
From the episode transcript:
WATTS: GULF WAR VET. FIFTH SPECIAL FORCES GROUP. HE WAS ONE OF THE ABDUCTORS. THE BOOTS MATCH. HE WAS TORTURED, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, FINGERNAILS REMOVED, BOTH CORNEAS RUPTURED.
…
HOLLIS: EXECUTION WOUND, POINT BLANK TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD. WE'VE SEEN THIS BEFORE.
[Outside.]
MCCLAREN: NOW LOOK, THE DEAD GUY IN THERE, DAVID COUGAR, FITS YOUR PROFILE TO A T. HE'S MILITARY, DESERT STORM, SPENT TIME IN A PSYCH WARD WHEN HE GOT BACK. BUT HIS PARTNER'S THE SICK ONE. HE GOT COUGAR TO HELP HIM GRAB THE WATTS GIRL THEN REWARDED HIM LIKE THAT.
FRANK: I'M NOT SURE THE OTHER KIDNAPPER DID THIS. EXCUSE ME.
[Hollis has left the house and Franks walks over to her.]
HOLLIS: SHOT POINT BLANK TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD. JUST LIKE THE SKULLS IN MAINE.
FRANK: IT'S A MILLENNIUM GROUP EXECUTION.
HOLLIS: THE HEAD SHOT'S KIND OF GRATUITOUS GIVEN EVERYTHING ELSE THEY DID TO HIM.
FRANK: IT'S A SIGN FOR MEMBERS WHO ARRIVE – BEHAVE ACCORDINGLY.
HOLLIS: THINK WE'LL FIND ANYTHING IN THERE?
FRANK: NO EVIDENCE. THAT SCENE IS SEVERE BY ANYONE'S STANDARDS. I THINK THE GROUP IS GETTING DESPERATE ABOUT IT, WHATEVER IT IS.
