Another motion to dismiss.
He's already spent more than I make on ink cartridges
for his printer.
I'm gonna rule 11 the son of a bitch.

Hold on, will you?
Susie...
I know...
we've been over this 100 times.
I don't know why you keep belaboring the point.
Honey, you know what? I got to go.
Oh, my God!
What just happened?
Shots fired! Shots fired!
I don't know where they're coming from.
Call 911...
Get down behind the wall! Go! Go!

...personnel in the building. All residents out.
Shooter dropped three.
No telling yet how many injured in the after party.
After first body fell, people were looking to the sky.
After the second, screaming started.
After the third, all hell broke loose.
I mean, full blown cluster...
- Pandemonium. - Pandemonium.
People trampled, somebody got hit by a car.
Three bullets, three kills.
All headshots on moving targets.
Like fish in a barrel.
Or our shooter's damn good at what he does.
All the deceased exited this building.
101 Park Ave.
We got an Arnold Calhoun, a security guard.
We got a Shana Torres, a secretary on Madison.
She had coffee with her sister at the cart in the lobby.
Then we get Roland Poe,
an Assistant U.S. Attorney to the Southern District.
We know where he works.
He's your ticket to the dance.
Hey.
Okay.
We have at least one through and through.
You guys start checking for fragments here,
and can I borrow your pointer?
That's where our shooter posted up.
Say he's better than damn good.
Maybe a competitive shooter or a hunter?
Maybe military?
- I'm going door number three. - Why?
A hunter doesn't go for the head.
I don't see any shell casings. A competitive shooter
would have left his brass for someone else to clean up.
Well, leaves military then.
These buildings...
it's a fish bowl.
No way he would have camped out here in the open.
He needs cover.
OA.
There.
Perfect perch. Just wait on the prey.
Yeah, but he didn't know when Poe
or the others for that matter
were gonna exit the building.
Unless this is arbitrary
they would have been waiting here for a while.
I don't see any coffee cups, cigarette butts,
candy wrappers, nothing.
Dude's a trained killer.
A sniper can sit still for hours,
pulse never rising above 40.
I'm guessing rangers or SEALS.
Clear view of the building's entrance...
- Right. - Unobstructed field of fire.
Goes down a flight of stairs,
takes the elevator down to the lobby,
then they disappear in the chaos
right in the middle of the street.
Yeah, but the only problem with that
is that somebody would have noticed
him walking through Midtown with a sniper's rifle.
Unless he used a concealed sniper rifle.
Collapsible. Fits in a briefcase
or a backpack.
This guy had a plan.
Roland Poe was a rising star at the U.S. Attorney's office,
and he got there
by putting bad guys with white collars behind bars.
So we're talking tax and security fraud,
money laundering, real estate fraud,
corporate big shots, scum bags mostly.
We're looking at every case Poe prosecuted,
prioritizing defendants awaiting indictment.
What?
You really think someone's gonna kill over tax returns?
People have killed over less. Guy put people behind bars.
People have killed over less.
Sometimes they're just angry or deranged,
but there's always a trigger.
Well, we're also looking at the other two victims.
Any red flags on their lives,
any connection to Poe or each other.
Well, shooting was in a public space
so any connection to the victims feels tenuous.
This had a-an element of spectacle to it.
So you're saying they're just trying to create a scene?
Cause a panic?
Sure, to scare people.
Morning rush hour, middle of a public square.
Well, mission accomplished.
NYPD already closed all access to parks,
public areas, playgrounds.
Killing from a distance is an attempt
to demonstrate or reassert power,
so our sniper most likely experienced a recent setback
or a personal loss.
Are you looking into all of the business in the building?
Anybody recently terminated?
Anyone who made threats, had anger management issues?
Or generally disgruntled? We're on it.
Do you have the ballistics report yet?
Yeah, the coroner's rushing the autopsy
to retrieve the bullets, but Ballistics
is on the fragment ERT recovered from the street.
- Okay. - Yeah.
Let's talk to Sammy.
Sammy.
Give us the good news.
I prefer to give you the bad news first.
- There's meds for that, Sammy. - Very funny.
So the fragment ERT found is too small to ID a caliber.
So what's good after that?
No caliber, no ammo type.
Tough to zero in on purchasers, sellers.
So I used digital reconstruction software
to build on the fragment,
allowing me to cross reference I
with the National Integrated Ballistics database.
- What are the indentations? - Crimp marks...
From a seating die
clamping the bullet inside a shell casing.
Part of the process
of packing custom loads of ammunition.
So the marksman can adjust the weight and power
of their bullets.
Your turn.
6.5 millimeter Grendel.
Similar to popular hunting calibers like .308.
But a 6.5 millimeter Grendel
is lighter, cheaper, and has lower recoil.
So a sniper can shoot faster, longer, and buy more bullets.
This isn't making me feel better.
Can a 6.5 Grendel be chambered
with a concealable sniper rifle?
It can be chambered with any number of weapon platforms,
and it can be broken down, carried and concealed
in something as small as a tennis racket case.
We're looking for stores that sold 6.5 Grendel ammo
within the last month.
Looks AUSA Poe maybe have been up to something sketchy.
His office said he had a doctor's appointment
at the time he was shot,
only the calendar in his cell had a meeting with an attorney.
Who's office is in 101 Park Ave?
Unfortunately.
Nothing sketchy about it.
Defense lawyers are famous for spur of the moment meetings.
Mr. Parnow is a divorce lawyer.
Gets better.
Poe charged two plane tickets
to Turks and Caicos. Leaving this Sunday.
Much needed vacation with the wife?
I was hoping, but as far as I can tell,
Mrs. Poe's passport expired last year.
State has no record of renewal application.
There are private services that provide 24-hour renewal.
Well, you're certainly an optimist.
Growing up Muslim in New York after 9/11?
You kind of have to be.
What do you think military trained hitmen go for these days?
Sounds like an affair.
Talk to Mrs. Poe.
And were gonna need the name of every
retired military marksmen
living in the tri-state area.
How do you want to handle this?
What do you mean?
Do you want to take the lead?
Little widow-to-widow bonding?
Could help her open up.
She may be grieving, but she's still a suspect.
Yeah, this one's a tightrope.
Yeah.
Melanie and Michelle.
They're in my bedroom with my sister.
I was on phone with him when...
I'm so sorry, Mrs. Poe.
I didn't how to tell them... what words.
Rollie could have gone to Wall Street, you know,
but he was a crusader.
Sounds like you didn't really care for his choice.
I don't think I had a good night's sleep
until he transferred into financial crimes.
"Thank God," I thought. At least no one will be...
shooting at him.
Silly me.
Did he ever mention any threats?
Do you want to hear about bad timing?
He actually decided to leave that damn job.
To do what?
He was supposed to interview at...
University of Texas, USC, and a bunch of others.
Six law schools in two weeks.
Teaching would have given him more time
with you and the girls.
It's all I ever wanted.
Sounds like he worked a lot of hours.
Nights and weekends?
- Does it matter? - It might.
Yeah he was at the office all the time.
You'd call him, check up on him?
I was married to a prosecutor for 15 years.
I know what you're doing.
You're treating me like a suspect.
Do you think I had my husband killed?
Nobody said that.
I need you to tell me what you think happened here.
What?
What do you know?
Say something!
Sorry, excuse me.
OA.
There's been another shooting.
Excuse us.
Step back. Make a hole, please.
- Out of the street, everybody. - Keep moving, please.
From business to residential.
Only it's worse.
Six down.
One headshot a piece.
Nine bullets. Nine people.
This guy has super powers.
Ten bullets.
He winged one guy,
and the guy fired back.
Walter Moss, off-duty security guard.
I'm Agent Bell. This is Agent Zidan.
Hello, Agent Bell. I'm Walter.
What happened here, Walter?
I was walking back from the doctor.
I hear gunfire.
Before I can do anything, bam.
Any idea where the shots came from?
I saw a muzzle flash from that roof.
It was all I could do to pull my gun,
pop off a couple rounds.
Any chance you hit him?
Couldn't say.
Shooting sure stopped.
There's no exit wound.
Isn't one hole enough?
One of our agents will escort you to the hospital.
Cops already took my gun.
Yeah, but we need that bullet.
We pretty much got a 360 degree picture.
Origin?
With all the bullets in corpus it's tough to triangulate,
but these new capture scanners
can do blood splatter origin calculations.
So if we can find points of impact,
we can calculate approximate bullet trajectories from there.
Two points of origin.
18 inches apart.
Looks like the shooter adjusted slightly for the last shot.
He had key terrain, a clear view.
Why would he adjust?
Hey, OA.
Turns out our gunslinger just gave us more
than the slug in his arm.
He said after the shooting stopped
he saw a black SUV peel out of here.
There's over 10,000 black SUVs in the city alone.
NYPD running stolen SUVs?
Yes, back six months.
We're trying to narrow it down using the video from the bridges
going into Staten island.
Probably best not to put this out to the press.
It worked with the Tsarnaevs in Boston.
We could have mobs attacking every black SUV in the city.
People are panicked.
They're locking themselves in their apartments
schools and businesses are closing.
It's 16 million eyeballs.
We could get a good lead.
Or a lot of false ones
which could lead to another incident.
So what do you want to do?
What are we missing?
Criminal snipers are usually looking
to retake control in their lives.
Long range killing from a commanding position
fulfills that need.
I don't know.
It feels like this guy has a more specific plan.
Where he staked out his position,
when he's gonna strike,
there has to be some connection between the victims.
We haven't found it.
What if it's...
what if it's not the people but it's the locations?
Maybe the victim's aren't even connected,
but the places are.
They have meaning to him.
Work that angle.
Let's go with a limited release on a black SUV.
- NYPD only. - I'll call the commissioner.
- And if it leaks, deny it. - Right.
Not yet.
I got a call from Mrs. Poe.
She was not pleased.
She was a legitimate person of interest.
And a widow of a murdered assistant U.S. attorney.
Time was of the essence.
She said you're withholding information about her late husband.
We had to ask some hard questions.
Relevant to the investigation?
I don't know yet.
Understood.
I'll leave it up to you.
Thank you, ma'am.
We flagged anyone who had problems
at either the corporate building
or the apartments in Staten Island.
Fired employees, evicted tenants,
even parking tickets.
We have a master list of 88 names.
No connection as of now.
Thanks.
Please tell me someone was fired on Park Ave
and evicted from their Staten Island apartment.
Better.
Four months ago Gun World in Rockland County
sold half a dozen boxes of 6.5 Grendel bullets.
New York law requires ammo sellers to record buyers.
And they did.
Buyer was one Cole Cooper,
40 years old, former Ranger sharpshooter.
Let me guess, dishonorably discharged?
Not quite.
Two medals of valor.
Gets better.
The address Mr. Cooper gave to the gun shop.
The Meadowview Apartments in Staten Island
where the second shooting took place.
Yeah?
Sammy from Ballistics. We got to go.
- Thanks, Kristen. - Yeah.
These two bullets were taken from the Staten Island shooting.
Slug on the left was plucked out
of your buddy Walter's arm.
Slug on the right was removed
from the head of a deceased victim during autopsy.
Both 6.5 Grendel.
Yes, but different lands and grooves
which means they were fired from different weapons.
Why would a sniper use two rifles?
To eliminate reload time
or the first one could have jammed.
Close, but no cigar.
Walter passes.
First victim, second victim,
third victim, fourth victim,
and fifth and sixth victims
before Walter manages to escape.
Huh.
What?
There wasn't enough time for Cole to change rifles
between those shots.
We've got two shooters.
This is the last thing posted
to Cole Cooper's Facebook site,
almost three years ago.
I know, I know. Just a little, you know...
Army ranger.
That's Cole.
He's coming home.
And she has no idea.
Oh, my God, Emily, look.
All right, so he's got a girl... or at least he did.
Haven't identified her yet.
Cole's social media went dark after this.
All right, well, doesn't matter who ghosted who.
We have to find her.
- Think she may be involved? - I don't know.
They were clearly intimate though.
She'll give us something.
Teams of two, whether it's marriage
or criminals are usually made up
of submissive and dominant personalities.
Cole was the pro, so he took the headshots,
and the submissive only took one shot
and that was what hit Walter in the arm.
Submissive is an amateur.
Why would Cole take them under his wing?
I don't know, but now that the submissive
is directly involved, the shared guilt
will deepen the bond with Cole
and the momentum of these attacks is likely to increase.
We'll find her.
- Agent Bell? - That's me.
Agent Zidan.
I knew he was trouble. He was weird.
He never put his name on the lease.
What can you tell us about Cole?
He moved in with Emily around two years ago.
Apartment 2B.
- Is that his wife? - Girlfriend.
It was her apartment.
Her parents had to co-sign the lease.
- Emily still live here? - Poor girl died.
Melanoma. She went like that.
It's always the good ones.
How did Cole handle that?
After Emily died, Cole was in bad shape.
He was trying to work, keep it all together,
but I cut him a break as long as I could.
- You evicted him? - Had to.
Emily's parents were on the hook.
Took me six months of lawyers to get him to vacate.
Any of those lawyers work at 101 Park Ave?
Maybe more than one. I'd have to check.
Tome and Heidi Wagner?
Yeah, they're good people.
This whole thing was pretty rough on everybody.
- All right, thank you. - All right, thanks.
Just posted the one vehicle?
Two more combing the perimeter
in case Cole comes back.
The shooting in Staten Island,
you believe that was Cole?
It happened outside the apartment that he shared with Emily
before he was evicted.
Wish it never came to that.
We appreciate Cole.
The man dedicated his life
to what was left of our dying daughter's.
He never really recovered from that.
Your attorney, did he work at Park Avenue?
Oh, God.
Was that the other building that got shot up?
What happened to Cole after your daughter passed?
He took it so hard.
I know they had tried to start a family,
but... it just wasn't to be.
Have you stayed in touch?
At first, we spoke every day.
He came to dinner a few times.
And then he stopped answering his phone.
And then the phone went dead.
He was so depressed.
A war hero
and he was selling candy and cigarettes
at a gas station in West Babylon.
You said "was," Mr. Wagner.
He missed days when Emily got sick.
They fired him.
Jubal, hey.
Do you remember which gas station?
It was a Solexo on Sunrise Highway.
OA.
Thank you. Excuse us.
A cop out on Long Island just pulled behind a black SUV.
The driver matches Cole's description.
He could be headed to his next location.
Shots were just fired.
We got a bunch of reporters calling in.
- We gotta make sure we keep... - Whoa. Whoa.
Special Agents Bell and Zidan.
How's your man?
Routine traffic stop. Caught a bullet to the throat.
Died on his way to the hospital.
- I'm sorry. - Shooter got away in a black SUV?
Yeah, and I assure you he will not get far.
Dash cam catch anything useful?
Yeah, caught a glimpse of the guy who was riding shotgun.
It's queued up.
He was a buddy, you know.
He had a wife and two kids.
I can't watch that again.
Dispatch, Baker Nine. Need to run a plate.
New York tag, George, Adam, Paul, 4, 5, 6, Queen.
Copy, Baker Nine.
Second shooter's a kid.
Approaching now. Request backup, my location.
Get your hands up.
Show me your hands!
Killed a cop, ditched the kid.
Cole's unraveling.
We got to find that kid.
Ground units are on their way.
Aviation's coming on station now.
Suspect's SUV was found abandoned on Bishop Road
and Sheffield Avenue in West Babylon, Long Island.
Let's put it up!
Can Kristen frame the search area?
I estimated the distance the boy could cover on foot
since the time of the shooting.
Adolescent male at max foot speed
could get as far as this radius.
Do the same for Cole from the abandoned car.
Let's coordinate with Suffolk County PD
and State police, saturate those zones.
So the dominant just abandoned the submissive.
- Why? - I don't know,
but I do know that both personality traits will be enhanced.
The boy will become more passive
and Cole will become more violent.
Damn.
I was hoping he was abandoning his master plan.
On the contrary,
he's more likely to accelerate it.
This is Special Agent Bell.
Thanks, lieutenant. Yeah, we'll find it.
Suffolk PD just got a 911 call.
Homeowner reporting someone hiding in their RV
on the property.
Left at the corner.
How sure are we?
Owner said he saw the curtain move.
No response to the bull horn.
Reaper 3-1, requesting thermal scan of RV
and driveway at target residence.
New York 1, execute, execute, execute.
Flash bang.
- FBI. - FBI!
Contact left.
Hands! Let me see your hands!
Clear!
Suspect is in custody!
Yes.
Kofi Seifu.
Snuck into the U.S. from Somalia with his father,
who was detained by DHS.
Father was eventually deported.
Kofi spent a year at a Health and Human Services shelter,
then went to foster care, public schools,
where he experienced emotional
and physical trauma in his first placement.
Bounced around at a couple of others.
And then he went off the grid?
Somehow hooked up with Cole.
Someone from child services just arrived.
See what you can get.
The kid's lost.
And hungry.
Checking surveillance video of the convenience store,
he was trying to lift this when the first shot rang out.
Let's go with the carrot.
Thought you might be hungry.
When's the last time you ate?
I'll bet you haven't slept.
We're trying to help you, Kofi.
Hell, I haven't eaten anything.
Cole didn't feed you?
Of course he did.
- We're like brothers. - That's good.
Because we want to help him.
No, you don't.
We know you only fired one shot.
You didn't kill anyone.
Cole is a good person.
He saved me.
How did he save you?
I was living behind a church.
He brought me food,
talked to me.
How often?
He came every day.
Came and brought his girlfriend.
You from Mogadishu?
Berberba.
"Except those who repent..."
"And make amends
"and openly declare the truth,
"to them I turn,
for I am oft-returning,"
Most Merciful." Allahu akbar.
You know what means, don't you, Kofi?
It's from the Koran.
I'm sure your father made you study it.
Declare the truth, Kofi.
Where was Cole staying?
Repent.
And make amends.
That's all garbage!
What did Allah ever do for me?
I need to see you two.
I was wrong about the carrot.
And I don't think the stick's gonna work either.
The idolization, the protectiveness,
the unwillingness to see faults tells me one thing.
Kofi loves Cole.
Loves.
This comes more from my being a mom
than my BAU training.
Adolescent emotions are powerful.
They're confusing.
Kofi, whatever he thinks of love
it could be paternal, fraternal,
sexual, platonic, or all of the above.
So what are you suggesting?
Don't try to untangle it. Just leverage it.
Kofi, we need your help here.
But more than us,
Cole needs it.
That lady is our boss,
and she's worried
because Cole shot a cop.
And right now there are a lot
of angry law enforcement officers who are out there
who might not care about bringing Cole in alive.
Do you know where Cole is?
No.
- Do you know how to contact him... - No.
Cole didn't want to shoot that cop.
Who did he want to shoot?
Kofi.
If you help us, I promise to keep Cole safe.
Listen, Kofi...
I know you lost your father once.
And you didn't get to say goodbye.
Please, don't let that happen here.
He thought that God would help him.
- Help him kill people? - Save Emily.
He prayed and prayed. So did I.
But she died anyway.
He said that both our Gods were frauds.
The church.
Saint Xavier church in Queens.
Close to the hospital where Cole's girlfriend died.
Kofi said Cole thought God would help him.
He'd leave her bedside, go to church to pray.
And then Emily died anyway.
He thinks the church failed him.
Kriten, what time's the early service?
8:00 a.m.
So less than 90 minutes.
We need to secure this area immediately.
Clear the streets.
Streets around the church are being shut down now
and we're pushing emergency text alerts across Queens.
Okay.
The crisis negotiators, they're waiting for you.
Are they up to speed?
Big picture, you're gonna have to guide them through the nuances.
And remember, Cole placed his ultimate faith in God
and feels betrayed.
He's gonna take that out on someone.
Yeah, got it.
Coroner and County has been notified.
Any chance Cole just goes to ground?
We've had every cop and agent in the region
tracking him all night and there's no sign.
Odds are better now. Daylight. His face is plastered everywhere,
It's a matter of time before someone spots him.
This is Sierra One. I've got a glare
off the bell tower of the church.
It could be the bell.
Or the scope of a rifle.
Sierra Two, I've got movement.
Somebody's up there.
That's gonna be a tough place to dig him out of.
Time to shine.
Cole Cooper, my name is Adam Gantry.
I'm a crisis negotiator for the FBI.
We want a peaceful resolution to the situation.
And we're willing to listen to anything you have to say
in order to bring that about.
Cole.
Are you there, Cole?
I don't think he wants to talk.
Not to us.
You thinking Kofi? We can't risk that.
Our best bet is to keep this area locked down
until he gives or puts a bullet in his own head.
Those are two bad options.
We are looking for line of sight.
Got my team in position. Holding.
I have an idea.
We lost audio. What happened?
They must have hung up, but we still have drone feed.
What... what are they doing? We need contact!
Hang on, she's got an instinct here.
Let's trust her with it.
Cole!
My name is Maggie.
I do work for the FBI.
But I wanted you to know that we have Kofi in custody.
I think I know why you abandoned him at the store.
Even though you might not care about your life right now,
you didn't want him to die.
Doesn't matter.
You'll put him away forever.
He's not even a legal adult.
In fact, your testimony could help exonerate him.
I don't believe you!
I know you value his life, Cole!
You could help give him one.
But not if you die up on this roof right now.
I pray things work out better for Kofi.
He's reloading.
Should we engage?
We promised Kofi we would keep Cole safe.
No, we didn't.
You did.
Okay, fine.
- It's getting too dangerous. - Just... just give me a second.
I just...
Cole!
I know that Kofi prayed with you
every day to save Emily.
Don't you talk about her.
Do not talk about Emily!
Okay. Okay, I'm just saying...
that I understand what you've been through.
It's not fair.
It's not fair...
to lose the one person
that gives you purpose
and meaning in your life.
Life...
It don't mean a damn thing anymore.
But it can.
We got a civilian on the street.
What?
Did we not clear the street?
Oh...
Oh, God.
Call Dana.
2-6 Fed, this is Alpha 1.
I'm watching the feed.
How do you want to proceed?
You're on the scene.
Maggie, you make the call.
Oh, God.
Take him out.
He's gone.
You okay?
No.
How we doing?
Just doing a final read on this report, then it's headed your way.
Well, take your time. Get it right.
Savor the win.
Drinks on me.
I'm in.
You coming?
Uh, maybe next time.
Good work, Maggie.
It was all of us.
Empathy's a powerful thing.
And painful.
You profiled Cole. You did it well.
Not well enough.
You made the right call.
I knew you had it in you.
Good night.
Done.
Really?
No.
I guess I should thank you
for catching my husband's killer.
Feel like I should have some sense of satisfaction, but...
Cold comfort.
I know.
Just before it happened, we were...
arguing.
Our last words, I just...
I need more closure.
I figured that's why you called.
How could you possibly think
I would have my husband murdered?
Please.
Tell me what do you know about him that I don't.
And if I'm ever gonna move past this, I need to know.
Am I wrong?
No.
You're not wrong.
Then why did you come after me like that?
We got a tip that a prosecutor was gambling big.
Blew his family's savings.
Initially, we thought it could have been your husband,
but it wasn't.
We were moving fast.
Just a part of the job.
Susan...
You are going to get through this.
I know it doesn't feel like it right now.
You will.
I hated it.
I hated everything about it.
Dad made me pray five times a day.
Other kids were playing ball. I was in a mosque.
I swore once I left the house
I'd give the whole thing up entirely.
What happened?
Dad died.
And you only get one of those,
so I figured it would be something worth revisiting.
Why are you telling me all of this?
Cole's gone, Kofi.
- Cole? - He's dead.
So what's gonna happen to me?
Well, Kofi, I'm gonna be right there
with you in court for the sentencing hearing.
I promise.
Why are you doing this?
God only knows.
