RYAN: The tableau murders, Clarke's confession, the firehouse.
- What if it wasn't about Mark's revenge? - Discrediting the integrity of the FBI.
This is about the trial. This is about Strauss.
We've had a setback.
Gina called me. She told me about the threats.
- First Clarke, now your brother's firehouse. RYAN: I'm worried about Max.
- I'm worried about you. - If there was something to tell you, I would.
We're gearing up to hit you where you live. You and that niece of yours.
- Tom deserves better than this. - Tom deserves the truth.
In a moment of weakness, I slept with you. I really shouldn't have.
I cannot afford to have you crossing the line.
I won't. I'm not denying I have a personal stake...
...in bringing Mark in, but I won't let it interfere.
He'll gut us in our sleep if he even suspects that we have our own agenda.
Call Juliana. We need to get out of town.
Too bad. We're on a schedule.
DAISY: Kyle has been shot. Please, okay? You saved my life.
- Why would I turn on you? Please, help? - Yeah, okay, okay.
Okay, I'll text you an address.
STRAUSS: Agent Hardy, what a surprise.
Does my attorney know you're here?
Oh, I'm not really here, doctor.
This bus is officially empty.
Just you and your conscience, taking the long drive to judgment day.
Well, well.
Someone's feeling confident.
Your students failed.
Your plan to discredit me and the case against you, that didn't take.
Sadly, I haven't the faintest idea what you're talking about.
Okay. I get it now.
You can't give me anything I would use against you on the stand today.
But see, what you don't seem to understand, doctor...
...is that your fate's already sealed.
There's no going back to the way it was...
...no more mentoring killers from the comfort of your mansion.
The truth is about to come out.
And the world is gonna see you for the pathetic little psychopath...
...that you really are.
The truth is a tricky thing, Agent Hardy.
You think it's a weapon you can aim at me.
But it's just as likely to blow up in your face.
See you in court.
MAN [ON TV]: And once again recapping our top news story...
...yesterday's early-morning raid in Brooklyn failed to capture Mark Gray...
...but federal officials are confident that his arrest...
...as well as that of Daisy and Kyle Locke, is imminent.
Should you or anyone you know spot any of these....
His fever is getting worse.
- I think the wound is getting infected. - Yeah, getting shot is no joke.
--contact authorities immediately.
Keep it right here for all the late-breaking details.
Mark, please. I don't know how long he can last like this.
We need more medical supplies, bandages, antiseptic.
- So go get them. - I don't wanna leave him.
Please.
I know, I have no right to ask you to go...
...but I don't know if I could live with myself if something happened to him while I was gone.
I know that you understand.
Thank you.
[KYLE GRUNTS]
Maybe you should stay here. You could still get an infection.
Forget it.
No way I'm letting you do this alone.
Okay, he's gone.
We need to get you some real pain meds.
I'll be fine.
We just need to keep it together for one more day.
Then we're home free.
A new life.
Have you thought about who you wanna be yet?
Doesn't matter.
As long as I'm with you, I'll be happy.
Come on. Juliana's waiting.
MARK: Go ahead, say it.
"I told you so."
Ah, come on, Mark, don't be like that.
You gotta look at the bright side.
There is no bright side.
I'm so stupid. I thought they were my friends, trying to help us get our revenge--
Hey, hey, hey. You're not stupid, all right?
You just have a big heart.
Come on, you need to toughen up, find out what the hell they're up to.
Reyes, conference room, 10 minutes. Agent Hardy wants to go over the protocols...
- ...for the Strauss trial. - Got it.
Have you seen Max?
Uh, no, I don't think she's in yet.
But I'll give her a call.
[LINE RINGING & CELL PHONE RINGING ON COMPUTER]
[LINE BEEPS]
I'm sorry, this is all very impressive...
...but it's way outside of our comfort zone. And Kyle's hurt.
- I'm fine, Daisy. JULIANA: I hope so.
- Because there's no room for mistakes today. - We'll get it done. Just remember our deal.
We finish this, you give us everything to start new lives. Passport, cash, plane tickets.
Believe me, if you succeed today...
...you'll get everything you want and more.
Good luck.
[VAN DOORS CLOSE THEN ENGINE STARTS]
RYAN: We need to be on high alert today.
While we have disrupted Strauss' plan, I'm afraid he might have a backup in place.
Now, photos of Mark and Daisy and Kyle have been circulated around the courthouse.
Security has been increased.
I've asked for HRT to be standing by on the scene just in case.
According to the prosecution, Agent Hardy will testify first...
...followed by the reporter, Carrie Cooke.
RYAN: I had a really nice time last night.
Me too.
I want the story, Ryan...
...but I also wanna help you.
She's staying at a hotel near the courthouse with private security.
When it's time for them to move, U.S. Marshals Service...
...will provide additional support.
Mike, where are you with establishing a link between Strauss and Daisy and Kyle?
Agents in Ohio are looking for a connection, but nothing so far.
Key is gonna be figuring out how he was able to communicate with them from prison.
- Has to be a go-between. - Agent Sloan, call Pine Mountain.
Request visitor logs, run background checks on everyone who's visited Strauss.
Will do.
I don't need to tell you how important this is.
Arthur Strauss, he's the guy that taught Joe Carroll.
He has mentored an unknowable number of psychopaths.
He is the father of serial killers...
...and there'll be hell to pay if he gets back in the world.
[REPORTERS CHATTERING]
MAN: Move it, move it. Let's go. REPORTER 1: Agent Hardy.
REPORTER 2: Excuse me, Agent Hardy.... REPORTER 3: Agent Hardy.
REPORTER 4: Just a question before you go....
- Will you be testifying...? REPORTER 5: Agent Hardy.
REPORTER 6: Agent Hardy....
REPORTER 7: Agent Hardy....
We're at the federal courthouse in New York City, where Dr. Arthur Strauss...
...the man the FBI claims is the mentor to Joe Carroll...
...will face the jury on charges of kidnapping, false imprisonment and attempted murder.
Everyone who visited Strauss in jail seems aboveboard.
Other than coworkers, they're all members of his legal team.
Dig deeper, okay? One of them has to be his go-between.
- We need to talk about what happened. - Not a good time.
Max, I don't care.
- It was real. - Real or not, nothing has changed.
You chose hunting Mark over me, and you would do it again, wouldn't you?
- Sheila. - Agent Hardy.
I hope you had a good breakfast.
You're going to get a workout on the stand.
- Second thoughts putting me up there? - Hell, yes.
Normally I avoid relying on the testimony of a man...
...whose name has been written in blood calling him a liar.
- Written by Strauss' followers. - Got proof?
Because without it, I can't allege a criminal conspiracy.
The defense is going to highlight the black cloud over your head.
Let them. I'm ready.
You better be.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
Morning. I'm Agent Johnson.
- Good morning. - Our asset is about to move.
- I've been assigned as overwatch. - Come on in.
We've got Ms. Cooke isolated on the 11th floor.
[ELECTRICITY CRACKLES]
- Careful. Don't spill any blood. - I got it.
[KNIFE PIERCES FLESH]
Okay, here we go. Carrie Cooke's room.
Now for the hard part.
I heard Carrie Cooke screaming. I entered the defendant's home.
Once inside, I was attacked, I was drugged.
When I woke up, Ms. Cooke and I were tied up and being held by Dr. Strauss.
What happened then?
After the defendant confessed to harboring Joe--
Objection.
Stick to the facts before us, Agent Hardy.
Dr. Strauss instructed his student to break Carrie Cooke's feet...
...with a sledgehammer, and then he threatened to kill us.
- What stopped him? - I was able to get free.
With the help of Special Agent Mike Weston and Max Hardy of the N.Y.P.D...
- ...we took the defendant into custody. - Thank you.
Agent Hardy, where were you when you heard Carrie Cooke screaming?
Parked in my car outside the house.
And yet none of Dr. Strauss' neighbors heard those screams.
- How do you explain that? - I've been told I have very sensitive ears.
It's a good thing. Because that screaming is your only justification...
...for entering the home of my client without a warrant. Right?
Yes.
Five-minute warning, then call the marshals and make our way in.
- Copy that. How's Ms. Cooke? - Nervous.
Hey.
- Look who I caught hiding in a stairwell. - No.
- Who is that? - That girl feds are looking for. Give a hand.
Nice shot.
[GROANS]
- You okay? - Yeah, I'm fine.
You ready?
You, your FBI buddy and your niece swooped down on Dr. Strauss' home...
...without a warrant, and then he disappeared...
...rendition-style, for weeks, without any opportunity to talk to a lawyer...
...or to have the evidence against him questioned. Right?
His arrest was part of a larger ongoing search for Joe Carroll.
So the search for Joe Carroll trumped my client's due-process rights?
- I didn't say that. - Didn't you?
- Objection. - Withdrawn.
In order for the jury to convict my client, they have to believe your account--
And Carrie Cooke's.
Yes, Carrie Cooke. Were you sleeping with her at the time of Dr. Strauss' arrest?
No, my relationship with Ms. Cooke started...
...after your client tried to murder us in his basement.
And it was public knowledge.
NATHAN: Your honesty has been called into question.
At the fire-station massacre, you were accused of lying. What was that about?
You'd have to ask the psychopaths that committed the murders.
Well, your fellow FBI agent Jeffrey Clarke stated in a video confession--
Objection. That confession was clearly coerced.
That doesn't make it untrue.
This is an e-mail exchange between Agent Clarke...
...and FBI Director Franklin...
...dated just subsequent to Dr. Strauss' arrest.
- This wasn't entered into evidence. - This just came into our possession.
We contend that the state withheld this document from discovery.
What's the chain of custody? What's the authentication?
NATHAN: This is an e-mail that originated...
...from Agent Clarke's laptop, which we have in evidence.
I have a forensic expert ready to testify to its authenticity.
And Agent Clarke's wife, Anna...
...is willing to testify to the veracity of its contents.
Agent Clarke shared his concerns with her.
I'll allow it.
Would you please read out loud his e-mail for us?
Having trouble?
That's fine. I'll do it.
Agent Clarke said he was worried that Agent Hardy was, quote, "out of control."
He said, "I believe Agent Hardy has a personal vendetta against Strauss.
He believes he is connected to Joe Carroll."
- This isn't Jeffrey. NATHAN: The e-mail continues:
"I think Hardy bugged Strauss' home."
An illegal bug.
That is how you really heard what was happening in Dr. Strauss' home.
Carrie was screaming--
"Carrie Cooke backs up Agent Hardy's account...
...but they are close and she will do anything for a big story."
Clarke did not write this.
Are we just supposed to accept your good word on that, Agent Hardy?
- I'm done with the witness. - Your Honor, I need to get a short recess.
WALLACE: Five minutes.
- Where'd that e-mail come from? - It's a fake.
They seem to be pretty confident that it's not.
And if you planted an illegal bug, Strauss will walk.
Our entire case against him will be considered fruit of the poisonous tree.
But if we prove that the e-mail is not real--
The jury's already heard it. I can't unring that bell.
All I can do is put Carrie Cooke up there...
...and hope the fact that you were sleeping with her doesn't prejudice that jury.
WALLACE: AUSA, call your next witness, please.
Your Honor, we're having trouble locating my next witness, Carrie Cooke.
NATHAN: Your Honor, it's mighty convenient they can't locate her now...
...that her entire testimony is in doubt.
- This smells like a stall. - Approach, please.
[MOUTHS] Find her.
Your Honor, Carrie Cooke is the heart of my entire case.
Then I move for an immediate dismissal.
My client has been held without bail for a year. He has a right to a speedy trial.
I give you one hour to find your witness.
RYAN: Carrie?
Well, good night.
Thank you, Ryan.
WESTON: Ryan.
I'm in here.
- Any sign of her? - No.
Place is clean. No sign of a struggle. It's like they were never here.
Security's last contact was 40 minutes ago when the team was getting ready to move.
[SNIFFS]
- What is it? - It's bleach.
- You got a black light? - Yeah.
It's blood.
They cleaned it up.
WESTON: If Carrie or the team were killed there, where are the bodies?
And why bother cleaning it up after?
Because Strauss knows that if there's a body, Judge Wallace won't dismiss the case.
- So Carrie could still be alive? - If she is, she won't be for long.
- Trial reconvenes in 20 minutes. - Ryan.
A security guard is also missing, and the entire security system has been disabled.
- Sounds like Daisy and Kyle's work. - Kitchen worker saw a couple...
...loading a cart into a laundry van.
Got Sloan on the line, pulling CCTV footage, see if we can track it.
Give me the phone.
Hey, what have you got?
Van went north on Mercer after it left the loading dock.
- That was a few minutes ago. - Let's go.
[ENGINE STARTS]
I picked it up again six minutes later.
It's going eastbound in traffic on the Williamsburg Bridge.
Okay, it pulled into the old Navy Yard five minutes ago.
RYAN: Carrie! MAX: Ryan, wait! Ryan.
[GRUNTS]
Ryan.
RYAN: Carrie.
Ryan. Hey, Ryan.
Ryan, I'm sorry.
That fire hasn't been burning long. Daisy and Kyle could still be close.
Split up.
Did you make sure everything's in the van?
- Guns, IDs. DAISY: Yeah, it's all there.
Left to burn like Juliana said.
I can't believe that we did it.
We're free.
[DAISY GASPS]
Kyle, you're bleeding.
I must have reopened the wounds. No big deal.
Kyle.
KYLE: I got it.
- Come on, baby. You can do it. - Aah.
KYLE: Unh. - Hurry. Come on, you can do it. Come on.
- Go on, Daisy. You gotta go. Run. - No. No. No, I'm not going without you.
- I can't do this alone. No, come on. - Yes, you can.
Baby, you're the strongest woman I've ever known.
- I love you. I love you. - I love you.
- Okay. - Go.
Go. Come on.
Drop the knife.
Do it.
Yeah, it's Carrie's.
Innocent people's blood always seems to come out a little bit darker.
Did you ever notice that, Ryan?
I bet you have.
Drop the knife, get down on your knees.
I'm not gonna ask you again.
Sure thing, chief.
[GUNSHOTS]
Daisy.
[CELL PHONE RINGS]
- Ryan. - Carrie Cooke was murdered...
...along with her security team. It was Daisy and Kyle, which means it was Strauss.
- Ryan. - Tell Judge Wallace. She's gotta know.
Ryan, it's too late.
Wallace dismissed the case when we missed the deadline.
What? Where's Strauss?
He walked 20 minutes ago.
And we've filed a restraining order against Hardy.
REPORTER [ON TV]: Dr. Strauss, how does it feel to be walking out of court a free man?
Honestly? It feels like justice.
[REPORTERS CHATTERING ON TV]
[RYAN GRUNTS]
My office. Now.
The three of you.
Shut the door.
Look familiar? It's Clarke's e-mail. The one from court today.
On our secure server, time-stamped and logged like it's been here all along.
Someone hacked in, put it there.
Our cyber guys said that's virtually impossible.
But it gets worse. The DOJ is opening up an official investigation into you three...
...based on what happened in court today.
- Call them. Tell them it was just me. - No.
It won't make a difference. Franklin told me to suspend the three of you...
...the minute I see you.
Which I will do when I see you.
Tomorrow morning.
Connect Strauss to Daisy and prove criminal conspiracy.
You won't have tac or intel support.
So if this thing goes sideways, you're on your own.
- Thank you, Gina. - Don't thank me.
I'm doing it to protect this office, not you.
[KEYPAD BEEPS]
[LOCK BUZZES]
[BUTTON CLICKING]
[BELL DINGS]
[KEYS JINGLE]
Strauss is nowhere to be found.
He disappeared the minute he left court. His lawyers aren't talking.
Finding him by morning isn't gonna be easy.
I forgot to mention this place doubles as our secret clubhouse.
Hey.
- You okay, doc? - Yeah. Sitting in the court today....
I feel like you're not telling me everything.
- Listen, Gwen, I am telling you-- - Forget it.
It's not the right time. I shouldn't have said anything.
- But we are gonna need to talk about it. RYAN: Of course.
As soon as this is over, you can ask me anything.
I promise.
Okay. I think I found Strauss' go-between. She's a paralegal on his defense team.
Juliana Barnes. She visited him in jail more often than anybody else, frequently alone.
- She recently paid off 100 grand in debt. - We gotta talk to her.
Do you like ironing?
Yeah, most people don't. They think it's boring. I find it relaxing.
The routine of it.
You can just turn your brain off and disappear.
Ah! You just gotta be careful not to burn yourself.
[CRYING]
Tell me about Daisy and Kyle.
What's their connection to Strauss?
They were Strauss' students.
He trained them.
Andrew too?
Yeah.
If they only cared about getting Strauss off, why pretend to help me avenge my family?
Because Andrew said that you were the perfect patsy.
With you involved, Ryan Hardy and the FBI would never really know...
...what was going on. No!
I'm just the messenger.
I'm not like them.
Strauss paid me to make contact. I thought it was harmless.
When I realized what I was into, it was too late.
Look, normally I'd feel bad for you, but I'm trying to toughen up.
So let's get back on topic.
[CELL PHONE BEEPS]
It's Maggie. Who's that?
- She's a secretary at my firm. - According to her, the FBI is at your office.
So I guess I'm not the only one who knows about you and Strauss.
Which means we better hurry this up. Ryan Hardy will be here soon.
No.
Awesome.
I just thought of a great way to kill two birds with one stone.
But I'm gonna need you to tell me where Strauss is.
I can't.
He'll kill me.
Oh, wow. Are you slow? Lady, you're already dead.
It's really just a matter of how bad it's gonna hurt.
[CRYING]
Looks like Strauss is covering his tracks.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
There you are.
I was starting to worry.
Kyle is dead.
It's your fault.
[BOTH GRUNTING]
[DAISY CRYING]
You're emotional. I understand that.
Kyle was a good man.
Maybe not my brightest student...
...but a loyal one.
I promised him...
...I would help you both start new lives if you helped me.
And I consider myself a man of my word.
Still...
...I know the idea of going on without him must be difficult to accept.
So I'm going to offer you a choice.
I can end your pain right here and now...
...and hopefully, you and Kyle can be reunited in the afterlife.
That is, if you believe that sort of thing.
Or you can leave the country with me and start over.
Grieving for your lost love from some nonextradition country.
So...
- ...which will it be? - I'll go with you.
That's the spirit.
[STRAUSS CHUCKLES]
Hey, I'm in her search history.
She looked up directions to Pier 46 in Red Hook.
- How long ago? MAX: Twenty minutes.
- Why? - Just seems a little amateur hour.
- She doesn't know we'd look here first. - She didn't plan on getting killed.
- She thought she'd take her computer. - So why would Strauss leave it behind?
You can ask him when we catch him.
Tell me, have you ever traveled by ship?
Never been outside of Ohio up until three weeks ago.
Well...
...in the right vessel, it can be heavenly.
Sadly, our Ukrainian cargo ship...
...is a far cry from the Queen Mary.
FBI!
Show me your hands! Don't move! Hands in the air! Hey!
Stop! Stop!
Do not move!
The look on your face right now...
...makes what happened to me in court today almost worth it.
You think you've won?
You haven't won anything.
Daisy, Kyle, Andrew, they're just the tip of the iceberg.
I have students everywhere.
They make Joe Carroll's followers look like nothing.
You, your niece, your girlfriend...
...all die if I go back to prison.
Shut up!
Drop the briefcase. Drop it.
Show me your hands.
Two birds, one stone.
Just like you planned.
Mike!
[GUNSHOT]
[GUNFIRE]
It's Mark. He's on the move.
- I'm going after him. RYAN: No!
You and Max get Strauss.
- Ryan. RYAN: Don't argue.
Hey! Hey!
Stop! Put your hands up! Put them up!
- Max, take Strauss to the car. MAX: No, Mike! Mike, no!
All right, start walking. Go.
[MAX GRUNTS]
[DAISY GRUNTING]
Enough.
Hurry up, uncuff me.
[GUNFIRE]
[GROANING]
[GUNSHOT]
WESTON: Hey! Hey!
Where do you think you're going?
There's no place to run.
Get on your knees.
We both knew it would end like this for one of us.
You had your chance and blew it. Now it's my turn.
Mike, stop!
- Don't do it. - You can't talk me out of this, Ryan.
So walk away if you got a problem.
RYAN: It won't bring your father back, man.
It won't end your pain.
I don't care.
I do.
And so does Max.
Mike. Mike.
You're a good man.
Don't let him strip that from you.
- I have to do this. RYAN: You don't. Pulling that trigger is easy.
What I'm asking you to do is hard. It's harder than anything you've ever done in your life.
He doesn't deserve to live.
But he does deserve to suffer.
In an 8-foot cell...
...23 hours a day.
All alone, no friends, no visitors...
...no chance of ever setting foot outside that prison.
You shoot him and his pain stops.
Let him live...
...and it never ends.
What did you do?
[CELL PHONE RINGS]
Max?
DOCTOR: Set her over there. What do you have?
Female, head contusion, multiple trauma.
Her BP is 78 over 58....
Watch your back, people.
Okay. We got it.
- Bring her in here. - Containment. Sorry.
DOCTOR: Take another room.
You left her? You just left her?
- I saw Mark. I went after him. - She needed you.
- I didn't know-- - That you should have her back?
What were you thinking?
I was gonna kill the man that murdered my father. Until you got into my head.
- It was the right thing to do! - What about this feels right, Ryan?
Max in here? Mark and Strauss out there? Feels right to you?
We look out for our own. First and foremost.
Okay, okay. Go ahead, fine. Blame me for Max. You know what?
If it had been you and we were chasing Joe, you'd have done the same thing.
WOMAN [OVER PA]: Dr. Perry, phone....
- How is she? - She's with the doctors.
I can't get a straight answer.
How are you holding up?
Ryan, what is it?
Before you got here...
- ...I was thinking how much I needed a drink. - You don't want to do that.
- I messed up. - This isn't your fault.
I'm responsible for everything that happened today. Everything.
So fix it. Find a way.
I just don't know if I can.
I had a patient in the ER yesterday.
Heart attack.
He coded three times.
I brought him back each time.
The fourth time, I couldn't.
He died on my table.
If a patient codes tomorrow, I'll try just as hard to bring him back.
I won't give up...
...no matter how impossible it seems.
- Agent Hardy? - How is she?
Your niece suffered a concussion and some internal trauma, but she's tough.
She should make a full recovery.
Thank you.
That's great.
What is it?
I know what I have to do.
What took you so long?
[English - US - SDH]
