00:00They call him the Reaper, an elusive international sniper with at least nine known kills throughout
00:27Europe and Asia. Murder for hire, all high profile targets. Now, sadly, this is his
00:32only known photo. But two days ago, agents working off of a tip from Interpol, linking
00:37the Reaper to payments made from a shell corporation raided a home in Malibu Canyon.
00:41Strip! Now!
00:46Now, the Reaper wasn't there, but his girlfriend was captured without incident, Zora Mattis.
00:52She's currently being held at Ventura County Jail for conspiracy to commit murder and awaiting
00:57for arraignment.
00:58Is she in the know or caught in the crossfire?
01:00Well, that's an unknown, but she's not just arm candy. She went to Stanford, works as
01:05a corporate translator.
01:06So she's got a lot to lose. And I assume she said no to a deal.
01:10Yeah. And intercepted dark web communiques have led us to believe that the Reaper is
01:14here in Los Angeles to carry out his next hit. So there's a clock ticking, which is
01:19where you come in.
01:20Me?
01:21Simone, I want you to go undercover as an inmate. Get to know Zora, find out anything
01:26you can about the Reaper's true identity and his next target.
01:33Your new name is Cheryl Waters.
01:40Cheryl? Couldn't I get something with a little more flair to it? Like Nefertiti or Jameika?
01:47Your backstory and identification have already been created. You were booked for possession
01:52and assaulting an officer.
01:53Ooh, Cheryl is spicy.
01:55Can we just slow our roll here a minute? Simone's a probationary agent. She's not ready for
02:00this.
02:01You're a terrible wingman.
02:03Simone taught in prisons back in D.C. as a volunteer, and she's good with people.
02:07See?
02:08Zora may be our only key to catching the Reaper before he kills again.
02:11If anyone even gets the hint that Simone is FBI, she's dead.
02:15You're right. Which is why you are going to go undercover with her as a sheriff deputy
02:20to make sure that doesn't happen.
02:26Let's run through it again. Only the warden's going to know we're undercover. We can't trust
02:31the guards indefinitely and not the inmates. And I won't be able to watch your back every
02:35moment.
02:36Simone, I know you love a challenge, but you don't have to do this.
02:40Carter, I got this. Trust me.
02:55What's your read? My name is Cheryl. What's your name, girl?
03:10Nobody.
03:11Hey, boss. The evidence response team dropped off everything from the Reaper's Malibu rental.
03:22It's got good taste.
03:24Huh. Anything to indicate who his next target is?
03:27Not so far, but he's going to have to work a little harder to finish the job, considering
03:31this was left behind.
03:34Well, that is a beaut. 7.62 RPR, 5-25 scope, shooting a hand-loaded .220 green subsonic
03:43round. It's all custom-made.
03:45That's a good eye.
03:46I did a movie once where I played a sniper, shot through the heart. It was a romantic
03:51sitcom. It was really kind of sweet, actually. Anyway, I spent two weeks training with the
03:55best in the business. It's How I Ace Firearms at Quantico.
03:58Well, the barrel on this one was made with a stainless 17.4 pH alloy. There are only
04:02a handful of gunsmiths in the world who are skilled enough to craft one. And since the
04:06Reaper lost his weapon, he's going to need to find someone local to replace it, and quick.
04:10Any names come to mind?
04:12Yeah. Guy by the name of Dave Barber.
04:14Whoa, whoa. Boomstick Barber? That's my guy. That's the guy who trained me. He's an armorer.
04:20He supplies firearms to actors on movie sets.
04:23Well, maybe actors aren't the only people he supplies to. The Reaper needs to replace
04:26his weapon, so go find out if Boomstick was commissioned to make him one.
04:30Let's go.
04:37Yo. You got my smokes?
04:40I don't have discretionary yet.
04:42Oh, all right. Well, maybe I'll just take these as a deposit.
04:46Hey, leave her alone.
04:49Really? You sure this the hell you want to die on, new girl?
04:55Oh, shut up.
04:56I'm going to put your ass in the infirmary with pieces missing. Give me those.
05:03Walk.
05:07I don't see you.
05:09Hey.
05:14Here you go.
05:15I didn't ask you to do that. So I'm not all of a sudden your jailhouse bitch, okay?
05:20Whoa. Shorty, you ain't even my type, all right? It's just that nobody survives in here alone.
05:28So I wanted to make a deal. I watch your back, you watch mine.
05:32Thanks.
05:36What?
05:38Hey, new guy. Take stink duty. Plumbing's down in this wing. Walk the inmates to the bathroom down the hall.
05:45For how long?
05:46Oh, hell yeah. That's a go. Hey, I know you.
05:51Move, inmate.
05:54Whoa.
05:56You ain't no Officer Jenkins. All those nights you sat working undercover in my club, eyeing all my girls, watching them grind.
06:05You Carter Hope, FBI. The man who ruined my life.
06:09You ruined your own life, Jasmine, getting in business with organized crime.
06:12I did my time. I'm on the up and up now, baby.
06:14Then why are you back inside?
06:15Because when you an ex-con, any misdemeanor dust-up lands you right back behind bars.
06:19Judge saw an ex-con and set my bail at $200,000.
06:22$200,000 for assault?
06:24No way I can pay that. Now I'm trapped here, waiting for trial.
06:27Or I was, until Christmas came early.
06:32You gonna get me out of here.
06:34How am I supposed to do that?
06:35Figure it out. Or I'm gonna tell everybody up in here you an undercover fed.
06:38I'll throw you in solitary, have you transferred out.
06:40Not before I can yell out to anyone who can hear me that you a G-man.
06:43Word spreads quick around here.
06:46I'll see what I can do.
06:48See to it fast.
06:51I'm really bad at keeping secrets.
06:55So where's this boomer guy?
06:57Boomstick.
06:59Right now he's working on the set of Hot Suspect.
07:01Am I supposed to know what that is?
07:05It's a wildly popular TV show.
07:07Oh.
07:09Hello.
07:10Hello. This is Officer Chen from the LAPD.
07:13We met a few weeks ago.
07:15Hey, Lucy.
07:16You remember me?
07:17Of course I remember you.
07:18Yeah, you're my hero.
07:20Living proof you can come out of the rookie years unscathed.
07:23No, I'm super scathed, but I'm still standing.
07:26Um, look, I don't mean to bother you,
07:28but we got a call about an attempted break-in at your storage unit,
07:31and when we showed up to arrest them, the suspect said to call you.
07:35Miles Butkus?
07:37Do you know him?
07:38Yeah, you could say that.
07:40He's my dad.
07:41Oh, I'm sorry.
07:44We have him in holding.
07:46Okay, we're in the middle of something right now,
07:48but we can, can I come there and grab him after this?
07:51Is that okay?
07:52Yeah, sure thing.
07:53All right, thank you.
07:59So your real name is Brendan Butkus?
08:06That was your takeaway?
08:10Hey, Boomstick.
08:11There he is.
08:13Hey, how are you?
08:14Bring it in, boy.
08:16Boomstick.
08:17Boom.
08:18There he is.
08:19How you doing?
08:20I'm good.
08:21Good.
08:22Oh, this is my boss, Special Agent Laura Stenson.
08:23Hi.
08:24Actually, we need your help with something.
08:26Here, have a look at this.
08:287.62 RPR, custom job.
08:32Looks European.
08:33You make one of those recently?
08:35Well, if I did, it's because the Second Amendment affords me that, right?
08:39Well, to a point.
08:40We were looking for a wanted fugitive who was in the market for a custom
08:43precision rifle just like that.
08:44Well, it's not really my place to ask what a customer plans to do with a legal firearm.
08:49So unless I know he's planning to commit a crime with it, I'm in the clear.
08:53Well, now we're telling you he is planning to commit a crime.
08:56So unless you want to be charged as an accessory,
08:58you need to tell us everything about this customer,
09:00starting with when you're supposed to turn up with the weapon.
09:07He just did.
09:08Stay right there.
09:09Stay right there.
09:10Sir, I think we have eyes on the Reaper.
09:12Hollywood and Gower.
09:14Hey!
09:15Oh, he made us!
09:16Hey!
09:17FBI!
09:42Come on.
10:12Come on.
10:48Suspect is heading east on Hollywood Blvd,
11:05and skipping in a grey BMW.
11:07I don't want to talk about it.
11:09I don't, and I've talked about it.
11:12Well, the Reaper is in the wind, and he has a new rifle.
11:16Which means he definitely has a target.
11:18It's got to be why he has the split town.
11:20Plus, a girlfriend.
11:21You think a guy who kills people for a living
11:23has a soft spot for a girl?
11:24Oh, no, this is not a movie.
11:25I'm just saying we don't know enough about this guy
11:27to rule anything out, sir.
11:28Okay, well, LAPD has a bolo out for the vehicle
11:30that he carjacked, but he's probably ditched it already.
11:32And Boomstick's cooperating,
11:33but he said he never met the guy before today.
11:35All the correspondence is in good order.
11:37Reaper paid in cash.
11:38All right, well, what about the car he came in?
11:40Uh, it's registered to a dummy corp.
11:42It's being processed as we speak.
11:43Hopefully the GPS gives us something.
11:45Okay, we'll take whatever we can get.
11:47Are you guys on your way back to the ranch?
11:49Yeah, almost.
11:50We have to stop by mid-wheelchair for a...
11:52Uh...
11:53Just a small matter.
11:55Make it quick.
11:56Yeah.
11:59Hey, nobody.
12:03Sorry.
12:04That wasn't so hard.
12:06That wasn't so hard, was it?
12:09Remember when I said we should have each other's backs?
12:12Well, I need a favor.
12:15I figured you didn't help me
12:17out of the goodness of your own heart.
12:19Look, I see you.
12:21Salon cut, manicured,
12:23nose in a book,
12:25you smart, got money.
12:27A lawyer?
12:29Because I could use one.
12:30What'd you do?
12:31Trusted the wrong person.
12:33My girl.
12:34I thought she was on a up-and-up.
12:36Said she worked for this courier service.
12:38Asked me to drop a package.
12:39Next thing I know,
12:41I'm delivering a kilo of cocaine
12:43to an undercover narc.
12:44Damn, she sold you out.
12:46But I'm still in love with her.
12:48That's crazy, right?
12:51I know the feeling.
12:52You do?
12:53Man, why do the troublemakers
12:55always got to be so sexy?
12:57I don't know.
12:58It's the Italian accent that doomed me.
13:01Oh, yeah?
13:02I love me a accent.
13:04Where you meet him at?
13:05I mean, in town or...
13:07Wait, where'd he at?
13:08He got a sister.
13:09We met in Milan.
13:11Mm.
13:12I felt hard.
13:14Followed him back to L.A.
13:16and look where it got me.
13:18They offered me a deal to turn on my girl,
13:20but I just couldn't do it.
13:22She's gonna let you take the fall?
13:23I don't know,
13:24because I'm trying to get a hold of her,
13:26but we're just talking.
13:27I don't care, Aimee.
13:28Come on.
13:29Okay.
13:32What the hell is wrong with you, Carter?
13:33I was just starting to connect with her.
13:35I've been made.
13:36I arrested one of the inmates three years ago.
13:38How did we not know she'd be here?
13:40We rushed the op.
13:41There was no time to background everybody.
13:43She's threatening to talk,
13:44so I'm pulling the plug.
13:45No, you're not.
13:46Excuse me?
13:47Zora's a tough nut,
13:48but she's starting to crack.
13:49She's telling me stuff about the Reaper,
13:51that, um, he's Italian.
13:52They met in Milan.
13:53She's in love with him.
13:55I am so close.
13:56Don't fool yourself.
13:57Ops like this normally take weeks to form a bond,
13:59and I know you're the queen of charm,
14:01but if you push too far too fast,
14:03she'll see through it.
14:04Carter, I don't need her life story.
14:06Okay?
14:07I just need enough clues
14:08to help us figure out this guy's identity.
14:11Hold your nerve.
14:13I got this.
14:16Okay, but you gotta work fast now.
14:18Our cover can blow up at any minute.
14:20I didn't even do nothing.
14:23So, your real name is Brendan Butkus.
14:26I know, right?
14:27There he comes.
14:28Brace yourself.
14:30Hey, Dad.
14:31Hey, kiddo, man.
14:32You're looking sharp, as always.
14:34Oh, there's the house.
14:35Yeah.
14:36Miles Butkus.
14:37Oh, hi.
14:38I'm his old man,
14:39and you must be his partner.
14:40Uh, training agent.
14:41Laura Stenson.
14:42Well, I'm mortified that we're meeting like this.
14:45I just gotta do a pitch,
14:46and I know how busy Brendan is.
14:48You know, he's got an important job,
14:49doing important things.
14:50You figured you'd just break into my storage locker
14:52and grab some vampire cop swag to sell?
14:54Well, you weren't using them.
14:58Why do you need the money?
15:00I didn't want to tell you like this.
15:03I'm sick.
15:05Lymphoma.
15:06Doc says it's pretty bad.
15:08Right.
15:09The chemo is very expensive,
15:10so I just needed to pay for it.
15:13Mm-hmm.
15:14I know.
15:15It was stupid.
15:16Sir, I'm so sorry to hear about your health challenges,
15:19but, you know, breaking and entering is a serious crime.
15:23Mm-hmm.
15:24Brendan and I have always shared everything.
15:27I promise, I had no ill intent.
15:30Could we just...
15:31Yeah.
15:33Hey.
15:35Would you like me to avoid this arrest?
15:38If you could, I'm really sorry.
15:39I think this is all just a big misunderstanding.
15:42He should have been on the rental agreement.
15:43And, again, I'm really sorry for putting you through all this.
15:46Is that okay?
15:47Mm-hmm.
15:48Yeah? Okay, great.
15:50All right, where am I taking you?
15:52Oh, no.
15:53You know, I hate to be cold-hearted here,
15:55but our case can't wait for a carpool.
15:57Oh, I can take him home.
15:59Oh, I owe you.
16:00Thank you so much.
16:01No, no.
16:02You don't owe me.
16:03Actually, I wouldn't be mad
16:04if you signed a vampire cop T-shirt for my roommate.
16:08Oh, sure.
16:09Where would you like me to sign it?
16:11Okay, so really big across the chest,
16:12but just don't get any of it on your face.
16:15Hmm.
16:37Hey, sorry about that out there.
16:40Cardis has been riding me ever since I got here.
16:43Was able to sweet-talk him into some extra dessert, though.
16:46Don't get too excited.
16:47The food here is a hate crime.
16:49No doubt.
16:50Although, you used to be in all fancy and Italy and everything.
16:55Actually, there's some great restaurants in L.A.
16:57You got one you love, though?
16:59On the romantic side.
17:01Okay, so I get my life straightened out.
17:03My boyfriend took me to a great place downtown last week.
17:06Talk to me.
17:07Six-course tasting menu up on our rooftop
17:10overlooking Walt Disney Concert Hall.
17:12It was magic.
17:13And cheap as hell, right?
17:15Definitely.
17:16Good looking out.
17:36You know your dad is lying about the cancer thing.
17:40Yeah, I do.
17:43It's how he's always been.
17:45You know, outlandish stories to get money, sympathy, leverage.
17:50It's his superpower.
17:52There's a lot to unpack there.
17:54Don't analyze me, okay?
17:55Please.
17:57It's just this dance we do.
17:59My...
18:01My mom ran out on me when I was a kid.
18:04He stayed.
18:05He's the only parent I've got.
18:07I hear you, but I just...
18:09Oh.
18:10Yep, we're almost back, sir.
18:12Well, the GPS data from the Reaper's rental car
18:14shows one stop before picking up his new rifle,
18:16a Bitcoin ATM in West Hollywood.
18:18...get cash for the rifle.
18:20You want to go to de-anonymizing cryptocurrency?
18:22It's the best of my academy class.
18:24It's all a matter of whether we can get access
18:26to the digital wallet the Reaper used
18:28to withdraw cash from the ATM.
18:29Then I can decrypt the wallet of origin
18:31by searching the blockchain, yada, yada, yada.
18:33We find out who paid the Reaper to do this.
18:35So can you handle it FOA,
18:36or do I need to get an egghead from the cyber squad?
18:38Give me a shot, boss.
18:40I won't let you down.
18:41So get your ass back here.
18:42Lights and sirens.
18:43Yes, sir.
18:47Bathroom.
18:48You're up.
18:50Hey.
18:51We need to talk.
18:54Later.
18:55This can't wait.
18:56And I'm feeling real talkative.
18:58Know what I'm saying?
19:00Stay right here.
19:09Cut the bullshit.
19:12What, true?
19:14I said what's up?
19:16Stay right here.
19:22I told you I'm working on it.
19:23Not good enough.
19:24Now, I saw you working your little case with that newbie.
19:27You better help me out here or I'm dry snitching both of you out.
19:30Threatening me is not going to help your situation.
19:32Then what is?
19:33My daughter is pissed at me because I'm me and won't take my calls.
19:37Look, I hear you and I'm moving as fast as I can, but I will help you, okay?
19:41You have my word.
19:46Okay.
19:55What the hell are you doing?
20:01That's mine.
20:02I'm sorry.
20:04I'm all twisted up about my girl.
20:06And I wanted to hug her when I saw you at a line-out.
20:09Stay the hell away from my stuff.
20:11Better not say anything.
20:14Trouble in paradise?
20:16Just a little misunderstanding, ladies.
20:20Stay away from me.
20:21Walk!
20:28I was able to isolate the Reaper's crypto wallet from an ATM transaction.
20:31He received a down payment last week for $100,000 from a man named Mikhail Ugrav.
20:37Well, he's been on the FBI's radar for a few years, son of a Russian oligarch.
20:41He's been busy building his own empire.
20:43Sports teams, social media companies, high-end real estate.
20:46Word is, he uses whatever shady tactic he needs to get his way.
20:50So, there's a long list of people he could conceivably want killed.
20:53All right, well, we're going to need to narrow that list down, and quick.
20:56If Simone and Carter can't get us a path to the Reaper,
20:58then the next best thing is to figure out who the Reaper is after,
21:01and this Ugrav guy is our best chance.
21:03Yeah, but how? Like, he's not going to cooperate with us.
21:06Let's see if we can rattle his cage, get him to slip up.
21:08Do your profiler thing, see what you can find out.
21:11My profiler thing, Matt? It doesn't really work like that.
21:14I understand that, Laura, but there is a sniper loose in the city.
21:17That's all we got.
21:20Good luck.
21:22Hello in there. I'm bored.
21:25But I look amazing.
21:29Thank you for coming in, Mr. Ugrav.
21:31Oh, this is my first time at FBI.
21:33Sleep building. How much you pay for this?
21:35Instead of real estate prices, why don't we talk about a crypto payment
21:38we tracked from your virtual wallet into the account of a prolific assassin?
21:42What exactly are you accusing my client of?
21:44I believe the word assassin answers that question. Try to keep up.
21:47Now, there are a few obvious targets, like your brother, Vladlin,
21:50who you've been feuding with for a few years.
21:52We're leaving.
21:53No, this is enlightening. Tell me more.
21:56Okay, well, if not your brother, then how about your former business partner,
21:59Josh Fisher? He's suing you, right?
22:02And then there's the nasty custody battle with your ex-wife, Daria.
22:05No, don't forget Malcolm Abbott.
22:09He reupholstered the seats on my G700, did a shockingly bad job.
22:13The man deserves to suffer.
22:15Okay, you can joke all you want, but we are in this now.
22:18And the smartest thing that you could do in the short term is to call this thing off.
22:21And in the long term?
22:23Give us the Reaper, or we will tear your life apart looking for him.
22:27That's it. We're leaving.
22:29You know, you might look pretty if you didn't dress like a boy.
22:33And you might be handsome if you didn't have your face.
22:37He sees this as a game.
22:39People are just pawns to play with.
22:41He wasn't fazed by any of our questions, but narcissistic sociopaths rarely are.
22:46So we're no closer to knowing who he put the hit out on and why.
22:49Okay, we're going to need to get a warrant for all of Bulgrov's communications.
22:52No judge is going to sign off on a blanket warrant.
22:54But it doesn't hurt to try.
22:57It's Carter.
23:01Tell me you got something off of Zora's phone.
23:03She caught me.
23:04It's my fault I got distracted. One of the inmates knows I'm a fed.
23:07I've been doing my best to keep her quiet, but it's been a thing.
23:10I'm not going to get anything else out of Zora now.
23:12Okay, I'll call the warden and get you two out of there.
23:14Carter, confiscate Zora's phone and bring it back for the techs to analyze.
23:17Before you go, Simone, maybe you can help us with something off of what you've gleaned from Zora.
23:21I'm building a profile for the Reaper.
23:23Now, he's an international assassin who's been undetectable for years.
23:26Then, a few months ago, he starts making mistakes. Gets sloppy.
23:30Want to know why? The easy answer is it started after he met Zora.
23:33Maybe he fell in love with her and they threw him off his game.
23:36That's what I said.
23:37No, I don't know. I mean, Zora is not a complete innocent in all of this.
23:40She was arrested in a house with a sniper rifle and stacks of money.
23:43She had to know who she was dating.
23:45What is it?
23:46Okay, I first thought that Zora was lovestruck and in over her head, but now I don't know.
23:52This girl got a burner phone up in county jail with no discretionary.
23:56Nothing to even trade for it.
23:58She must have jacked it off another inmate.
23:59Right, but we are talking about Miss Bookworm with the glasses.
24:03Come on. Something's up.
24:05Neither Zora nor the Reaper are fitting their profiles.
24:08Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
24:09His shoes.
24:10What?
24:11Snipers spend countless hours lying in wait, mostly on their stomachs.
24:16They wear down the tops of all their shoes.
24:18Really?
24:19Brendan, you might have been in a movie, but I was in the Marines.
24:22Look at those.
24:23Yeah, they're pristine.
24:24No wear pattern.
24:25What about Zora's?
24:30The tops of the shoes are worn down.
24:33Zora's the Reaper.
24:35We're almost there.
24:52Come on, baby.
25:04Deputy's down in Burmary Hallway.
25:06Code seven lockdown.
25:21Let's go.
25:29Zora's accomplice picked her up outside the jail in this unmarked van.
25:32I put out a bolo.
25:33Yeah, kind of looks like the guy we chased down thinking he was the Reaper.
25:36That's her boyfriend.
25:37Okay, I'm good at knowing when someone is BSing me,
25:40and everything Zora told me about her man is true.
25:43Including the fact that it's his fault that she was in jail,
25:45because he makes mistakes and trips her up.
25:48She knows he's bad for business, but she can't give him up.
25:51She loves him too much.
25:52Oh, she told me about a restaurant he took her to last week.
25:56Did she give you a name?
25:57No, but she said it had a six-course tasting menu
26:01with a rooftop view of the Walt Disney Concert Hall.
26:04It's Futomoto's best tuna cigar in town.
26:06I'm sorry, tuna what now?
26:07Well, it's worth a shot.
26:09Let's scrub surveillance footage from last week,
26:11get some coffee, people.
26:13It's going to be a long night.
26:18Hey, Daddy.
26:19Oh, hey, there you are.
26:21Look, I was worried.
26:22I'm sorry, I've been tied up.
26:24Is there a problem?
26:25Yep, with your lady.
26:27Look, I went to Dina's showcase last night with Ruth,
26:30and your girlfriend was all cozy with another woman.
26:34Turns out it's her ex-fiance.
26:38Hold up.
26:39Dina was engaged?
26:41Until last month, according to Ruth.
26:44I gotta go, Daddy.
26:47Here you are.
26:48Oh, thank you.
26:50Um, did your dad make it home OK?
26:55No news is good news with him.
26:58You know, Brendan, I know you asked me not to analyze you,
27:02but I just can't help it.
27:04Miles casts a huge shadow over your life.
27:07And I know he was there for you, and that does mean something.
27:11But I see the dynamic.
27:13You're the parent to your parent.
27:16It shouldn't be that way.
27:18He gave up everything for me to be an actor.
27:20Did he?
27:22Maybe he didn't have anything to begin with.
27:25Maybe he put all of his dreams for himself into you,
27:28and that is an unfair burden for you to carry.
27:31What am I supposed to do?
27:33He's my dad.
27:34I can't just cut him off.
27:36You can talk to him.
27:38Have an honest conversation,
27:40because placating him, accepting his lies,
27:45that does nothing for you.
27:50Thank you for coming in.
27:51So you saw my mother in jail?
27:53How's she doing?
27:54Jasmine's fine.
27:55She wants out, though.
27:57Look, me and my mom haven't been talking,
27:59and I hate that she's locked up,
28:00but with her bail that high,
28:02I'd have to put my house up as collateral to get her out.
28:05I mean, how'd she even land back in jail anyways?
28:08She popped off on a customer
28:09when he messed with one of the girls.
28:11See?
28:12She's a wild card.
28:13You know she's protective of all her employees.
28:15Don't act like she's a saint.
28:16I know she's not,
28:18but she is your mother who raised you on her own,
28:21and she must have done something right,
28:22because you got a good head on your shoulders,
28:24a house.
28:25That I worked my ass off for.
28:27I mean, come on.
28:28If Mama messes up, misses a court date or whatever,
28:30I'm out on the street.
28:32Look, I brought you down here because I made some calls,
28:35and I got the bail reduced to $5,000.
28:38Why would you do that for her?
28:40Because what's happening to her is not right.
28:42Her bail should have been $5,000 in the first place.
28:44She might have made some mistakes,
28:46but she doesn't deserve to lose everything over this.
28:48No one does.
28:49So will you bail her out?
28:51Yes.
28:53Great.
28:54Thanks.
28:55Of course.
28:56Let me show you out.
29:03Jasmine didn't have any leverage on you anymore.
29:06Most people would have told her to go to hell.
29:08I made her a promise.
29:10What's the point of the badge if we can't do a little good?
29:12Well, you're a better man than I, Carter.
29:15Yeah, I am.
29:19Dee, we need to talk.
29:21My dad told me about your showcase last night.
29:24Mm-hmm.
29:25How's that ex-fiance of yours?
29:27Oh, man.
29:29Cutty spying on me now?
29:30No.
29:31Looking out for his baby girl.
29:33Now, I'm not mad.
29:34Really?
29:35Because you're sounding a little hot right now.
29:37Why am I learning about an ex-fiance from my dad and not you?
29:41I wanted to introduce y'all at my show,
29:43but you canceled on me at the last minute like you always do.
29:47You wanted to introduce us?
29:49For real?
29:50Yes.
29:51Damn, girl.
29:52I really like you.
29:54I'm trying to invite you into my life.
29:56I want this to be more.
29:59Look, you have every right to ask for that.
30:03It's just, I am finally living my dream.
30:07And I've seen the toll that this job and the hours take on agents,
30:12their partners, their families.
30:17And I understand if you're not down for that.
30:24So this is the end of the road?
30:26Is that what you want?
30:27No.
30:29Our relationships are about timing.
30:33And I guess this just isn't ours.
30:38Hey.
30:39We found him.
30:42Surveillance photos from Futomonos.
30:48We got a clear photo of Zora's boyfriend-slash-accomplice.
30:52Alexander Perry.
30:53He was caught on traffic cam footage going east on Olympic toward downtown.
30:57He could be heading to where Zora's planning her hit.
31:00Damn.
31:01Yeah.
31:02Let's move out.
31:03Let's do it.
31:10Five minutes until the target arrives.
31:15Hey, FBI!
31:16Freeze!
31:17You're under arrest. You're under arrest.
31:19Turn around.
31:25Talk to me.
31:26We got him in custody, but there's no sign of Zora.
31:28Okay, well, listen to this.
31:30The warrant came through, and we just received Mikhail Bulgrov's emails.
31:33Bulgrov has been pissed about not being able to acquire a huge tract of land from the South Bay
31:38because one guy on the land trust is blocking the deal.
31:40His name is James Knox.
31:42Where's Knox now?
31:43He's leaving a board meeting at 9309 Elm.
31:45That's only a few blocks from here.
31:47We got in touch with him.
31:48He's in a secure room, and LAPD is moving in to protect him.
31:52So we need to get to Zora before she figures out that her target isn't showing up and decides to take off.
31:57Sir, I should go down there.
31:58No, no, no. You are here for a reason.
32:00You're the only one who knows Zora.
32:02I need you here at 30,000 feet helping me game plan, okay?
32:059309 Elm is half a mile north of here.
32:08If you calculate windage and terrain...
32:12There.
32:13That building right there, Zora would have a perfect shot from one of those high floors or the roof.
32:17Right there.
32:18Let's move.
32:19I got him.
32:20Carter, does Alexander have a burner?
32:23I might have an idea on how to stall her.
32:28Okay.
32:36What is it, Alexander?
32:37Actually, it's your jailhouse bestie, Cheryl.
32:41A.K.A. Simone Clark, FBI.
32:46You know, I almost liked you.
32:48Sorry for the charade, but you're an internationally wanted hitwoman, so neither of us was being honest.
32:55You weren't lying about one thing, though.
32:57Alexander, he is cute, girl.
33:00And I know you love him.
33:02So you won't leave him behind to take the fall.
33:05You overestimate my affection for Tesoro.
33:08For anyone.
33:10Carter, talk to me.
33:11We are never going to find her if we have to search floor by floor.
33:14She's too good a shooter to be set up in the window.
33:16She'll be back in the perch.
33:17She's not going to want to shoot through the glass.
33:18So look for a broken window or up on the roof.
33:21Ninth floor, second window down, north-facing side of the building.
33:24All right, copy. We're on our way.
33:28Face it, girl. We got you.
33:30No, you don't.
33:32Yes, we do. We know who you are.
33:34We know who your man is.
33:35And we know who hired the hit on James Knox.
33:40Who's James Knox?
33:44Knox is not the target. You need to get there fast.
33:47Copy.
33:51We got the payments from Boogrove's account to yours.
33:54Oh, sweetie. Nice try.
33:57Boogrove isn't the mastermind behind this operation.
34:01He's the target.
34:05Boogrove must have been going to the same meeting that Knox was.
34:08Keep her talking.
34:09Zora, you don't want to do this.
34:12I know real love when I see it.
34:15And, girl, you got it bad.
34:16Takes one to know one.
34:18How's your girlfriend?
34:20We broke up.
34:21Sucks to be you.
34:23No, not at all.
34:25But I'll still do you a solid.
34:27Turn over your client list and help us take down the people who ordered the hits.
34:32And your man won't have to serve jail time.
34:34We'll even offer you a deal to extradite you to Italy so you can serve your time near him.
34:42Bravo. You are good.
34:45You almost had me convinced there for a second.
34:48It was fun talking to you, but I have a job to do and a big wide world to disappear into.
34:52Tell Alexander we'll always have Parco Sinfione.
35:12Leah.
35:35Leah.
35:41Leah!
36:12No!
36:23Come here. Hey.
36:25We got her in custody.
36:31Yes!
36:34Turns out it was Daria, the estranged ex-wife, who paid the Reaper to turn Boogrof into Pink Mist.
36:40And she used his crypto account to pay for it.
36:42Yes.
36:43Damn. That is cold.
36:44You know, I'm not gonna lie, I was tempted to let Zora take the shot.
36:47Well, you did the right thing. Agents have her in custody.
36:50Now Zora's on her way back to county jail under strict isolation this time.
36:53No more breakouts for the Reaper.
36:55It's a hell of a job, guys.
36:57I'd say this calls for a drink.
36:59I will not say no to that.
37:00Laura.
37:01Uh, who are they?
37:03Hey.
37:06Uh, excuse me, I gotta deal with this.
37:13We're gonna go check and see what that's about, right?
37:15Most definitely.
37:17I'm free.
37:18Yeah.
37:19And it's all because of you, my hero.
37:21Mom, please.
37:23Oh, there it is.
37:24No, I just made a call. It was your daughter that came through.
37:27That's my baby girl.
37:28You kept my cover, so I kept my word.
37:31Something like that is rare, so I brought something to say thank you.
37:36I tried to talk her out of it.
37:38The IP passes to my strip club.
37:40Drinks on me.
37:41Bring all your friends.
37:43Couldn't possibly accept.
37:44No, no.
37:45Yes, you can.
37:46We will take it.
37:48What?
37:49Strip clubs are a fascinating bit of social anthropology.
37:51You said we could get a drink.
37:53You're looking tasty in that suit, G-Man.
37:55Mom!
37:57Okay, thank you so much.
38:02Don't you miss it?
38:04The acting.
38:05The adulation.
38:06The money.
38:07Mm-hmm.
38:08Acting was your dream.
38:09This is mine.
38:11You begged me to get you into the industry, and you loved it.
38:14Can we just stop, please?
38:16Just stop with all the lying and the manipulation,
38:20the breaking and entering, the fake illnesses.
38:23It's just, it's got to stop.
38:25But I really am sick.
38:26No, you're not.
38:27You're pathological.
38:31We can't keep going on like this.
38:33Like what?
38:34I gave up my career.
38:35I gave up everything to support you,
38:37and this is how you thank me?
38:39You didn't give up anything, okay?
38:41You didn't give up anything.
38:42You never latched on to anything of your own in the first place.
38:44Okay, I guess I'm a monster.
38:45Oh, stop playing the victim.
38:47You still have time to find your own thing.
38:50And you're gonna have to.
38:53I'm cutting you off until you get your stuff together.
38:57What?
38:58This.
38:59This right here.
39:00This is my dream.
39:02And I'm not gonna let you mess it up for me,
39:04even if it means not having you in my life.
39:09I'm so sorry I made you feel like that.
39:13You're very stressed.
39:15You're obviously exhausted.
39:17I'm not mad. It's okay, it's okay.
39:19Get some rest, and I'll call you next week.
39:21Yeah, okay.
39:22You didn't hear a word I just said, did you?
39:24I'm very proud of you, son.
39:26Yeah, okay.
39:27Special Agent Stinson, good to see you again.
39:29And I love your outfit.
39:31Thank you, Mr. Butkus.
39:38You have the talk?
39:40Yeah.
39:42Think things are gonna change?
39:46No.
39:49Not yet.
39:50But thank you for the advice.
39:52I appreciate it.
39:53Well, you can also thank me for tonight's entertainment.
40:00Let's go. You deserve to blow off some steam.
40:14Daddy, listen.
40:15I'm not supposed to tell you this,
40:18but I was in jail for an assignment.
40:21The feds locked you up?
40:23Just for a day.
40:25It was crazy.
40:26I don't know how you kept your spirits up for eight years,
40:29knowing you were innocent.
40:31And even if you weren't,
40:33to be locked up in a cage like that,
40:36how did you stay sane?
40:38Fighting to get home.
40:40To you.
40:41To your mother.
40:43It gave me life.
40:46We lost so much time.
40:49You only lose what you can't let go of.
40:52That's in the past.
40:54It's over.
40:56Hmm?
40:57Hmm.
41:02You expecting Ms. Ruth?
41:04No.
41:07Hey.
41:08What's going on, B?
41:09Come in.
41:10Come on.
41:11Sorry, you weren't answering your phone.
41:13Yeah.
41:15So, what you doing tonight?
41:18I got some VIP passes.
41:20Normally, I would be about that life,
41:23but tonight I'm white.
41:25Jail do number on you?
41:27Dina and I broke up.
41:29Oh, no.
41:31Oh, man, I'm so sorry.
41:33You want to talk about it?
41:35Brendan?
41:36Yeah.
41:37Have some pie.
41:38Homemade.
41:40Thank you, Cuddy.
41:41You a fan of sweet potato?
41:42I most certainly am.
41:44Wait, you a bit stuck here.
41:47That is what we call a Cuddy creation.
41:50It's like crack, but slightly more addicting.
41:55Give me that.
41:56What?
41:57You need to go on and go to the club.
41:59No.
42:00This is exactly where I want to be.
42:03Everything okay?
42:05It is now.
42:07Brendan?
42:08Mm-hmm?
42:09We have a saying in this household.
42:11Ain't nothing in the world can't be fixed
42:13with a little bit of love and a whole lot of pie.
42:17I'll eat to that.
42:19Hey.
42:49♪♪
