"'Kingdom Come" is the sixth episode of the first season of the American crime-thriller television series Millennium. It premiered on the Fox network on November 29, 1996. The episode was written by Jorge Zamacona, and directed by Winrich Kolbe. "Kingdom Come" featured guest appearances by Lindsay Crouse and Tom McBeath.
Forensic profiler Frank Black (Lance Henriksen), a member of the private investigative organisation Millennium Group, chases a serial killer who targets clerics and holy men due to his frustration with his own faith.
"Kingdom Come" marked the first contributions to the series by Zamacona and Kolbe, who would both return for future episodes. The original broadcast date set for "Kingdom Come" was pushed back several weeks, as it was felt by the network that it would be in poor taste following the death of Chicago archbishop Joseph Bernardin.
When a Catholic priest is burnt at the stake in Lander, Wyoming, private investigative organisation the Millennium Group despatch offender profiler Frank Black (Lance Henriksen) and Ardis Cohen (Lindsay Crouse) who had previously worked together on a case involving the murders of three clerics several years earlier. Black sees similarities between the murders and the methods of torture employed by the medieval Inquisition. This is confirmed when a Protestant minister is drowned in imitation of another ritual torture. At the scene of the drowning, two wedding rings are found—a man's in the stomach of the victim and woman's nearby.
