John copes with his first nightmare over Karen's passing while helping the police in the passings of several young girls. A psychic, Delphine, helps them locate two of the bodies in a nearby park. John is skeptical of her abilities but begins to believe she has some gift when she sees a presence and a darkness about him. After the third girl turns up dead, Delphine leads them back to the park where they find a skeleton from five years earlier . . . around the time she started blacking out and her gift started manifesting. John determines that Delphine survived the hugger's attack and suffered amnesia, thus explaining her 'psychic' connection to the huggings and the park. John soon determines all the victims worked in food services, and that a butcher, Jeb Crosby, is the hugger . . .but not before he captures Delphine. John and the police arrive just in time to save her and John comes to terms with his guilt over Karen's passing.

The series is about the life of John Doe, a mysterious man who rises from the primordial waters of an isolated island, possessing knowledge of literally everything in the world, yet having no memory of who andmdash; or even what andmdash; he is. Doe quickly finds his way to Seattle, where he befriends the police and uses his special gift to help them solve 'impossible' crimes each week, while continuing his unending quest to uncover who he is and where he came from. Despite his considerable charm, Doe is an emotional island unto himself. Want to know the population of Peru in 1853? How many blue cars there are in the state of Washington? Or better yet, predict which horse will win every race at the track based on knowing all the variables? Doe has all the answers. But what is he like? Family man or loner? Hero or villain? What is truly in his soul? Doe doesn't have a clue. In his search to unlock the key to his past, He may be a government agent, an extra-terrestrial or perhaps just a regular guy.
