Without A Trace is a television series that revolves around the squad of FBI agents who work for the Missing Persons Unit (MPU) in New York City. The show features gripping storylines that highlight the emotional and psychological impact of missing persons cases on the families and friends of the victims and the investigative team. The first episode of season five, titled "Stolen," is no different.

The episode begins with a little girl named Mia who is snatched from her bed in the middle of the night. Her frantic parents, Julie and Ray, wake up to find her gone and immediately call the police. The MPU is called in to investigate, and the team led by Agent Jack Malone (Anthony LaPaglia) starts working on the case.

As they start looking into the family's background, they discover that Mia's father, Ray, has a criminal record and was recently released from jail. They begin to suspect that the kidnapping may have been orchestrated by someone who was seeking revenge against Ray. However, their investigation takes a different turn when they find out that Mia was not the kidnapper's primary target.

The MPU team uncovers a plot by a group of human traffickers who were aiming to abduct Mia's younger brother, Alex, for their twisted purposes. Mia's kidnapping was a case of mistaken identity as the traffickers thought she was Alex, who bears a striking resemblance to her. The episode then takes the viewers on a wild ride as the MPU team endeavors to find Mia and stop the traffickers.

Stakes are high, and tensions run deep as Jack and his team race against time to save Mia and catch the kidnappers. In their search, they discover a complex web of lies, deceit, and greed that led to Mia's abduction. The episode is full of plot twists and turns that keep the viewers on the edge of their seats.

Meanwhile, Julie and Ray are left to deal with the harrowing experience of having their child abducted. Their despair is palpable as they struggle to come to terms with their loss and wonder if they can ever see their daughter again. The episode does an excellent job of showing the emotional turmoil and agony of parents who have lost their child.

"Stolen" is a gripping and powerful episode that highlights the harsh reality of human trafficking and its devastating effects on families. The show's creators have done an excellent job of capturing the emotional and psychological impact of having a loved one go missing. The episode illustrates the importance of having a team like the MPU, who work tirelessly to solve the cases of missing persons and bring hope to families in their darkest hours.

In conclusion, "Stolen" is an intense and emotional season premiere that sets the tone for the rest of the season. The episode showcases the superb acting talents of the cast and provides a profound insight into the dynamics of the MPU team and the personal lives of their clients. The episode is a testament to the show's ability to tackle difficult social issues and maintain viewers' attention with its innovative storytelling.
