I uncoverrd 27 companies with the same address.
- Shell companies? - Exactly.
Bran-X Industries own properties.
This is bricks and mortar. - Let's dust for explosives.
- It's reading positive. - It's a bomb-making factory.
There's nothing linking this building to Richard Melnick.
We need to find another way of breaking Hearst.
You're being transferred to the Counterterrorist Unit.
Take you hands off me, please. Ah! I'm not a fucking terrorist!
It is too dangerous.
You don't make decisions,
you do as you're told.
They can get to anyone.
As long as you don't talk,
our families will be safe.
Richard Melnick had a mole in CTU.
You thought it was me.
I couldn't take any chances.
Bibi was our only witness.
I told you to bring Arthur to Ireland!
I told you these people were dangerous
and you didn't believe me!
You're right, James was collateral damage.
The hit-and-run was a ploy.
This was all to get her to Antwerp.
It's a trap.
We're not gonna make it.
They don't land for another 25 minutes.
Not a chance. I'll call Vince to go and meet them.
No.
Vince is an asshole, OK,
but he's not a snitch, I trust him.
Well, I don't.
If you're right about Bibi being lured here,
she needs armed protection at that airport,
and we're not going to be there in time.
So, we either leave her exposed and vulnerable,
or we have Vince meet her and Sean,
and take them to the safe house.
This can't get around the CTU.
I'll make sure Vince knows to be very discreet.
OK.
Subtitles.
Vince has collected Bibi and Sean from the airport.
They're on their way here now.
We still have time to call for armed support
and secure the whole area.
You agreed, we keep this small.
Every time we share information with your department,
it gets leaked.
I want as few people as possible knowing
where Bibi's going to be staying. OK?
Yeah, OK.
Subtitles.
They'll be here any minute.
Get Vince to pull the car
up to the front door, the closer the better.
Ah!
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!
Stay down low, you'll be fine.
Anyone sees where it's coming from?
He was on the roof, across the street.
You're alright, Mila?
I can't see anyone up there.
It was the second building
on the corner.
He's gone.
He's trying to escape.
Mila, you come with me. - I'll come too!
You stay until DSU arrives.
Make sure Ms. Brannigan is protected and safe.
OK.
How long until armed support gets here?
Ten minutes.
Hey! Police, stop!
Police, stop or I shoot!
Raise your hands!
Turn around!
Put the bag on the ground.
You did well, Mila.
Now you need to be strong, OK?
Ah!
It's Mila.
Mila!
He was waiting for us when we came out.
He shot Christian and hit me.
Here. Get that into you.
Ah, you're a lifesaver.
You need to see this.
What is it? What's happened?
Boss.
Yeah?
Bibi's refusing to go to the new safe house.
I don't have time to argue with you.
Then don't.
We're all just trying to keep you safe.
Ha! Ha! Doing a pretty shit job at this.
That's the second time someone missed me
because they shot at me whilst I've been in your care.
I warned you we couldn't trust the CTU.
It may have slipped your attention,
but the head of that unit just lost his life to protect yours.
How did the gunman know we were coming here?
It hasn't been established yet.
If you were me, would you put your life
in the hands of the CTU?
Probably not.
I have to see my son
and I need to be sure we're safe.
We'll stay at James' apartment, he'll feel secure there.
Sean can stay with you,
but he can't be armed here in Belgium.
I've hired private security.
If there are any problems,
call me.
Will do.
Vince.
The attempted shooting of Bibi in Ireland was also a sniper
from a distance, just like this, and we know it was Aubrey Cline.
- It wasn't Cline this time. - But the MO is the exact same.
Yeah, but Mila saw the shooter.
She was able to give us
a detailed description of the man.
This is the person we're looking for.
That's not Cline.
I need to talk to Hearst to see what he knows.
You'll have to wait
until I'm free to sit in with you.
- Hearst is a CAB prisoner. - But he's in our custody.
Yeah, but that was just to put pressure on him.
Regardless, you can't interview him
without a senior member of CTU present.
Our priority right now is the murder of Christian.
But it's all linked.
Hearst, Christian's killer, Richard Melnick, Trestford,
the sale of the port.
- We don't know that. - Of course, we do!
That gunman was trying to kill Bibi Brannigan!
The sale of the port closes tomorrow.
If Christian was here, he would want us to do
everything in our power to stop that happening.
But he's not here, I am.
And my priority is catching the person
who killed Christian, nothing else.
- But how can you even... - There is no but.
That is my decision as the acting chief.
Henry, I assume you heard the news.
We did not sign off on killing
a senior police officer.
This was unintended.
Bibi Brannigan was the target.
It's making people nervous, Frances.
All attention is now focussed on catching De Jong's killer.
That will keep the police occupied until after
the port transfer has been signed tomorrow evening.
The port is the objective,
we can't lose sight of that.
Any loose ends can be dealt with after.
I hope your confidence is not misguided.
It's not, trust me.
Let me know if anything changes.
How did the gunman know
that's where Bibi was going?
I think there is a leak in CTU.
What? Why?
Bibi claims that Richard Melnick said
he had a source inside CTU.
That's how they were staying ahead of the investigation.
A leak in CTU would explain a lot.
I decided to keep it quiet so as not to tip off
the mole that we're onto them.
So, who in CTU knew where you were taking Bibi today?
Christian, who then told Vince,
who brought Mila with him.
The same Vince who's denying us access to Hearst
and has shut down the investigation
into the port sale?
We're on our own for now.
Hearst may be out of reach, but I have an idea of how
to get to Richard Melnick's financials.
- How? - Come with me.
She might not wanna talk to us,
but it's worth the try.
Claire Wallace?
We've spoken before on the phone.
I'm Passent Hussein, Vandaag newspaper.
I was hoping we could talk.
This is not a good time.
I've just got some questions I'd like to ask you.
Put them in writing, send them to press@garda.ie.
They'll get to me eventually.
Chief Inspector De Jong was happy to speak to me earlier.
About what?
About Viktor Maes, Richard Melnick,
the sale of the port to Niskus Group,
the review into Trestford.
If Christian told you everything,
what do you need me for?
He asked me not to run the story
on Viktor Maes' links to Richard Melnick.
Why would he do that?
He said it might derail
an active investigation
into events around the sale of the port.
He asked me to hold the story
in return for an exclusive.
Off the record?
Absolutely.
What Christian told you is correct.
But that investigation has now been put on ice
by the new acting chief of CTU.
Why would he do that?
The deal is being signed tomorrow.
Maybe that's a question you should be asking
in your newspaper.
Name, please.
DS Claire Wallace,
but we've already been through this with the guys outside.
- Yes, can you check Detective... - It's OK.
OK. Please.
How is she?
Happier now she has Arthur with her.
Does he know what happened to his father?
I think she's telling him now.
The last time I spoke to your dad,
he told me how much he loved you...
more than anything.
And he'll be looking down on you now from Heaven
and see what a brave boy you are.
I'm really sorry to interrupt,
but there's something we need to discuss with you.
Can't it wait?
I think you're gonna want to hear this.
Why don't I take Arthur and get him something to eat?
I think I saw some pizza in the fridge.
OK.
I'll be right here if you need me, darling, OK?
Come on, buddy.
What is so important?
We thought you should know
that the investigation has been put on hold.
Why?
CTU are focussing on catching.
Chief Inspector De Jong's murderer.
Does that mean the sale of the port
will go through tomorrow?
It looks like it.
Everything that's happened,
the bombings, the murders, everything,
is all because Trestford wants that port.
And now, they're gonna get it! They're gonna fucking win!
It's not what we want either.
Do you know how much I've risked
to help you get them?
Those people have tried to kill me!
They've attacked my family!
My brother is dead! James is dead!
And you're gonna stand there
and shrug your shoulders like it doesn't matter!
We don't have evidence directly connecting.
Trestford to the crimes.
What about Hearst?!
Surely you got something from him!
He's been kept at CTU.
We no longer have access to him.
Well, Richard's driver then!
You said he was the one who tried to kill me!
Can't you use that against him?
Frances Swann is claiming that he was hired privately
by your father-in-law,
and that Trestford never had any direct dealings with him.
There must be something you can do!
The person we keep coming back to is Richard.
He was at the centre of all this,
but we've never been able to gain access
to any of his accounts.
If you could help us with that...
I don't have access to Richard's finances.
No, but if James is
the sole heir to his father's entire estate,
there must be a will
detailing what that estate comprises.
Are you joking?
I don't see any other way.
Subtitles.
Let's hope he remained a creature of habit.
There it is.
There are dozens and dozens of appendices
of all Richard's assets and business interests.
Do you mind if I have a look?
We're all after the same thing, Bibi.
These are all the companies he has shares in.
It's pages and pages of them.
We need to go through these carefully one by one
and see if anything here matches Hearst's files.
- Hi, Mila. - Hi, Josh.
Jesus! Are you OK?
It looks a lot worse than it is.
I was just checking in to see how you were getting on
with Richard Melnick's phone.
Nothing of interest so far.
Yes. That was my experience too.
Listen, are you on your own there?
Yeah, I'm in a stairwell.
OK. Look, this may be nothing,
just a gut feeling,
but something feels off about Melnick's phone.
The stuff on it is so lacking
in any personality.
It almost feels curated.
Is there a chance someone could have tampered with the phone,
wiped it of anything incriminating
to throw us off track?
No.
It's more likely that Richard Melnick knew
to leave nothing incriminating on it.
And I was responsible for the phone
after it was handed in.
And then I gave it to you.
So, no one tampered with it.
I have to go.
Of course. Don't worry.
This is not what I agreed to.
My commanding officer is dead!
I'm done!
I'm out!
Mila, you've been paid very well for your service.
You are done when the port deal is signed,
not a moment before that.
Don't forget what could happen to your mother.
Here, look at this.
There's a list of Declaration of Trust.
Remember that apartment Darren Reid bought
for your brother in Antwerp?
Yes.
Well, the title deeds were in Darren Reid's name,
but there was also a Declaration of Trust stating
that Reid was only holding the apartment
in trust for Fionn.
So, what are these for?
Four properties in Antwerp
held in trust for Richard Melnick
all in the name of Chessa Reyes.
Chessa?
Chessa is Arthur's nanny.
If Chessa's holding property in trust for Richard, then...
It's to hide the fact that Richard owns these properties.
Boss.
Uh, can I have a word?
What's up, Josh?
I think Mila is the leak in CTU.
Why?
Mila called me
and I mentioned Richard Melnick's phone
because the data on it felt wrong,
like it'd been carefully cleaned.
And when I asked her if she thought it could've been
deliberately tampered with,
she assumed I was talking about after it was handed in.
The natural assumption would be that James Melnick wiped it
before he handed it in,
but that's not what she thought.
It's hardly a smoking gun.
So then I checked the ROM files, which control
the operating system, work flow, user authentication...
Yeah, yeah, we don't need the details, Josh.
They indicate that the last recorded actions
before I got the phone, were all delete commands.
Meaning data was deleted.
This was a sophisticated job.
And Mila was responsible for the phone
after it was handed in.
We need a word with you.
Is this about this bullshit story in the paper
about us shutting down the investigation?
It's all true, isn't it?
We just lost a friend and a colleague,
so I'm not gonna apologize for trying to find his killer
above everything else.
Then, you might want to hear what I have to say.
Follow me.
This better be important.
At the very beginning of this investigation,
we received information that Trestford had
a mole within your department
who was leaking information.
That's ridiculous.
Every time there's a breakthrough,
someone gets there ahead of us.
Just look at what happened with Rojas, Ortiz,
Daniel Katz.
The pattern's very clear.
I trust everyone on my team.
That's exactly what Christian said when I told him about this.
He especially trusted you.
That's why he asked you to collect Bibi Brannigan
at the airport, and tell no one.
But still, the gunman managed to be there waiting
in position when Bibi arrived.
He had to have been tipped off.
I hope you're not fucking suggesting that I did that.
No, I'm not.
You're gonna have to wait here a minute.
Mila.
Where's your phone?
Unlock it.
Nothing I can see right now,
but if you give me time, I can do a deep dive.
We have to check her computer.
Yeah, of course, it's over there.
Give me your bag.
Unlock it.
Check the messages.
Most of the messages are deleted.
The last one sent says...
"We're taking her to Lange Gasthuisstraat 37."
I can't believe I'm saying this, Mila,
but you are under arrest
for your part in the murder of Christian De Jong.
Ah.
Thank you.
Any luck?
Not so far.
I don't have time to go through all this thoroughly.
So, I have a list of companies
we haven't been able to trace ownership of.
I'm checking if they match anything on this list...
Want another pair of eyes?
OK.
And it's not just exact matches you're looking for,
but fragments of names.
When people are setting up lots of shell companies,
they usually use variations on a single name,
like Glen William, Glen Jones, Glen Thomas and...
But I guess you know all about that already.
Well?
The phone Mila was texting is a pay-as-you-go phone
registered to a false name.
- Hmm. - Can we pinpoint its location?
We can probably triangulate a rough location,
but it won't be done by today.
And we can't question Mila
until her lawyer is here.
I'm not sure how much we can trust anything she says.
I believe the suspect description she gave
for Christian's killer is false
and designed to mislead.
I think the person we should be looking for is Aubrey Cline.
And I have every police officer in Belgium
looking for someone who doesn't even exist.
Maybe that's good for us.
If Cline doesn't know we're looking for him,
he'll feel more secure.
It's one way of looking at it.
What's always bothered me
about Cline is how he can turn up, commit these crimes,
and then completely fall off the radar.
How does he disappear?
Where is he hiding?
You have a theory?
We know that Richard Melnick arranged safe houses
for the bombers to stay in
before they carried out the bombings.
When we were going through his estate,
we found four properties
with title deeds under the name
of Arthur Melnick's nanny.
They were just being held in trust for Melnick.
You have the addresses for these properties?
I'm not handing these over
and having you lock us out of the case again.
OK, you can come with us to get Cline,
but it's my arrest.
And in return, you let us question Hearst?
Agreed.
In just over two hours,
they're signing the contract for the port.
You want to stop Trestford? We move now.
I think I may have found a possible connection.
Here, between one of Richard's companies,
Scarpia and a company on your watch list:
Bran-X Industries.
Bran-X.
That's a shell company who owns a warehouse
where we found evidence of a bomb-making factory.
Then, I think we should check it against these ones as well:
Altoum Limited,
Buoso Limited
and Lastouc Limited.
Scarpia is a character from Tosca.
Altoum, Buoso and Lastouc are all characters
from Puccini operas too.
Richard loved his opera.
Of course, he did.
Ms. Swann. Ms. Swann, do you wish to comment
on the ongoing investigation into corruption involving
Viktor Maes, Richard Melnick
and the sale of Port of Antwerp
to Trestford and Niskus Group Limited?
That is a question for Viktor Maes.
Copy that.
We've had dozens of media requests for interviews.
I don't want any interviews today.
You'll have to make some kind of statement.
I suggest that we pick maybe
two or three prestigious newspapers,
like the Financial Times and the Wall Street Journal
for one on ones,
and then, just give a couple of television interviews too.
For the rest, we can issue a blanket press release.
Sorry. We are ready for you on stage.
Perfect.
Thanks, Norah.
I'll talk to you later.
One of Richard's companies owns the land
of the warehouse where we found
the bomb-making equipment.
So, we have an evidential link between Richard Melnick
and last year's terrorist attacks? - Exactly.
Is it enough to stop the deal?
I doubt it.
Swann and Trestford are gonna argue
that Richard Melnick operated alone and independently.
Nothing to do with them.
Yeah.
This is block two.
Block one is the building across.
Oh. Sorry about that.
OK. Thank you. Bye-bye.
Target is inside.
Move in!
Go, go!
Subtitles.
- Clear! - Clear!
Subtitles. - Clear! - Clear!
Clear!
The target escaped from rear!
Put your weapon down!
I said put your hands up!
I won't ask again!
Put your gun down
and raise your hands!
OK.
Target down.
And you sign the contract over here
on behalf of Niskus Group Limited.
And then you look out at the press and smile.
And that's all there is to it.
Uh, not long.
We're going to start letting people in now.
Great.
Inspect this table for fingerprints.
OK, I'll do it.
Different identities.
It's all him.
Can I get a photo of these bank cards?
Of course.
Thank you.
Josh. - Yeah.
I just sent you some bank account details.
I need you to check them out.
Hang on, it won't take long.
Sure, I can wait.
- Hey. - Your badge, madam.
- Thank you, Vicky. - And these?
Yeah, we'll go through that later, OK?
OK.
They're saying 10 minutes.
Hmm, hmm.
This is an amazing achievement.
It's taken a long time to get here.
You should try to enjoy it.
You're right. I will.
Do you hear that? - What?
The sirens.
What's this?
Frances Swann, you are under arrest
for suspicion of murder by joint enterprise,
perverting the course of justice and fraud.
This is ludicrous.
Do you know Aubrey Cline?
Like I said, he was Richard Melnick's private driver.
We have evidence that you signed off on payments
made to a number of bank accounts held by Aubrey Cline.
These payments came from a Trestford subsidiary company.
- I wanna see my lawyer. - Bring her in!
- I wanna see my lawyer. - Take her away.
- Get your hands off me! - This can't be true!
What's going on, Frances?
How was Richard Melnick involved?
Ms. Swann, what do you say to these allegations?
- Do you have any comments? - No.
Of course, I feel vindicated.
We have been shouting for weeks
for a review of Trestford and Niskus Group's bid.
But I've spoken directly to Mayor Peeters
and he has assured me that, following today's events,
any agreement with Trestford and Niskus Group
is null and void.
So, I'm very confident
that our consortium will be stepping into first position
and the sale will be closed within weeks.
Thank you very much.
Nice to meet you, Mr. Hearst.
I'm Norah Dillon from the Irish Criminal Assets Bureau.
No, no, no. If you want to interview me,
I want a lawyer here.
Oh, I'm not here to question you,
I'm here to help you.
I doubt that.
We have a paper trail
that links Richard Melnick through you
to the warehouse where last year's bombs were made.
Frances Swann,
Richard's successor at Trestfort,
has been arrested on murder and terrorism charges.
The sale of Antwerp Port to Trestford is cancelled.
Look, I'm just an accountant,
a businessman,
nothing else.
It doesn't matter.
You helped facilitate a terrorist campaign
that led to the killing of dozens of people.
You're looking at multiple life sentences.
But help us,
and we can have those charges reduced.
It doesn't matter.
If I talk to you, they will kill me.
We can protect you.
No, no, no, you can't.
Not from these people.
If you give me your Irish clients,
I know they're not the ones you're afraid of...
than I can make the case for reduced charges
and talk to CTU about witness protection.
Only the Irish ones?
Yes.
Vince was just telling us Mila has decided to cooperate
with the investigation.
- She's distraught. - Yeah, she should be.
And we can use that.
She was just foolish, Josh.
They've asked her for a small favour to begin with.
And once you do that, they've got you.
Trapped.
Mila fooled all of us, Josh.
Her life is over and she knows it.
Helping us now, it's all she has left.
Dealing with Mila after what she's done,
it can't be easy.
I need her to build the case against Swann and Trestford.
One thing that doesn't make sense:
she's claiming they had nothing to do with the computer hacks.
Maybe she's trying to limit the charges against her?
With what we already have, admitting to that wouldn't make
any difference to her sentence.
Do you think someone else was involved in all of this?
Like who?
Look,
today is about Christian.
We got the people behind the bombings.
I think he'd be happy with that.
- Yeah. - Sure.
- Yeah. - Slainte.
Slainte.
To Christian.
I'll be right back, sweety.
OK, mom.
Have you got what you owe me?
All the details are on there.
The diamonds are spread across 16 banks vaults.
What about Siobhan and the kids?
Their money has been transferred
to the agreed accounts in Barbados.
You've done very well out of this.
How many billions is
your company going to make from this port deal?
Exactly.
If it wasn't for me,
Trestford would now own that port.
I showed you how to do this.
I let you blow up my car and kill my father-in-law.
I think 400 million is a small price for all of that.
