"Prime Suspect" -- Don needs Charlie's help to find out why the daughter of a mathematician is kidnapped, on a rebroadcast of NUMB3RS, Friday, Aug. 12 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Lesli Linka Glatter directed the episode written by Liz Friedman. (Originally broadcast 2/18/05)

Neil Patrick Harris ("Doogie Howser, M.D.") guest stars at Ethan Burdick, a man whose daughter is held ransom in exchange for the solution to a highly advanced math equation.

When a 5-year-old girl is kidnapped from her birthday party, Don and Terry lead the investigation but must rely on Charlie's help, as the girl's father, Ethan, is also a mathematician. Charlie realizes the kidnapper's motive when Ethan reveals that he is close to solving Riemann's Hypothesis, a difficult math problem. If solved, the solution could not only earn him with $1 million but could break the code for Internet security, unlocking the world's biggest financial secret.
