Prey season 1 episode 9 titled "Collaboration" follows the story of Marcus Farrow, a detective who has been on the run trying to prove his innocence after being falsely accused of a crime he didn't commit. In this episode, Marcus is determined to uncover the truth about what happened to his son, Finn.

The episode begins with Marcus meeting with a forensic psychologist, Dr. Jane Newman, who has been working with the police department to profile potential suspects in the abduction and murder of his son. Although hesitant at first, Marcus eventually opens up to her about his troubled past and the strained relationship he had with his son. Dr. Newman offers Marcus her support and promises to help him find the answers he's been looking for.

Meanwhile, the police department brings in a new detective, DCI Andrea Deacon, to take over Marcus's case. Andrea is a hard-nosed, no-nonsense detective who doesn't believe in Marcus's innocence. She immediately sets out to track him down with the help of a team of detectives.

As Marcus continues to search for clues about his son's disappearance, he receives a call from an unexpected source - his ex-wife Rachel. Rachel has information about a group of criminals who may have been involved in Finn's abduction and is willing to share it with Marcus. Despite their strained relationship, Marcus agrees to meet with Rachel to see what information she has.

After meeting with Rachel, Marcus discovers that the group of criminals she mentioned is involved in a large-scale robbery that is scheduled to take place in a few days. With his detective instincts in full gear, Marcus sees an opportunity to use the robbery as leverage to get the police department to take his case seriously.

Marcus contacts DCI Deacon and proposes a collaboration. He offers to help her team catch the robbers in exchange for help in finding his son's abductor. After some convincing, DCI Deacon reluctantly agrees to the collaboration.

Marcus and DCI Deacon's team set up a sting operation to catch the robbers. However, things don't go as planned, and the sting operation quickly turns into a dangerous shootout. As Marcus races to locate the criminals and their loot, he realizes that one of them may hold the key to Finn's disappearance.

In the end, Marcus manages to track down the criminal who may have information about his son. Through some tense negotiation, he manages to get the information he needs and finally has a new lead in his case.

"Collaboration" is a thrilling episode that picks up the pace and ramps up the tension as Marcus comes closer to uncovering the truth about his son's disappearance. With well-executed plot twists and turns, it's a must-watch for fans of the show.
