00:00You
00:30Oh
01:00Oh
01:24Contact
01:30Base fire, holster your weapons
01:34Straight in the bottle
01:37Yeah, not quite as tight as my grouping
01:39Ah, so off
01:41It's not bad
01:43Both rookies pass their quals on the first try
01:45He's about to give him the speech
01:46He's about to tell us it's an important speech
01:49It is an important speech
01:50What's an important speech?
01:51It's a milestone, 90 days in and you haven't washed out
01:54In fact, you've done exemplary work
01:57So you're both on the path
01:58But to where?
01:59It's time you both start thinking about and asking yourselves the question
02:02What question?
02:03What kind of agents do you want to be?
02:05There are blue flamers who are trying to rise the ranks
02:07And then there are desk jockeys who are just waiting for their pensions to kick in
02:10And your careers are going to lie somewhere in between those two extremes
02:13Do you want to be in intelligence, IT, counterterrorism?
02:16Maybe hit a specialized field, SWAT, CID, hostage negotiator
02:20What if we like what we're doing right now?
02:22Street level agents are the best in the bureau
02:24But that's just my personal opinion
02:26And when you can shoot as well as we can
02:29You know you're born for it
02:31Don't get cocky
02:32There's always someone better than you
02:34Police fire, holster your weapon
02:42Hello, Matt
02:53Candace
02:55What a pleasant surprise
02:58Liar
02:58This is special agent in charge, Candace Thurlow from DCHQ
03:02Meet agents Hope, Stenson, Akers, and...
03:05Hi, I'm Simone Clark
03:06Nice to meet you
03:07Yeah, I know who you are
03:08Nice to meet you, too
03:09So what are you doing here?
03:10Your new unit is drawing attention
03:12The director sent me to watch the team in action
03:15We should have called first
03:15Today's housekeeping
03:16Weapons qualification
03:18And then we're off to catch up on paperwork
03:19But first, I've got to get back to the office for a supervisor's meeting
03:22So if you'll just excuse me
03:22You know what, I'll join you
03:23In fact, I'll give you a ride
03:25Okay
03:26That way we could, uh, catch up
03:27Yeah
03:27Let's go
03:28Okay
03:29Dang, boss
03:32Why's she hating on you like that?
03:35Because we used to be married
03:37I'm not here to settle old scores
03:40Well, I should hope not
03:41Marriage is ancient history at this point, right?
03:45Especially for you
03:46How many divorces are you up to at this point?
03:49You must get the loveliest Christmas cards from all those lawyers
03:52Okay, what are you really doing here, Candace?
03:55There's got to be more to this story
03:56Because with you, there always is
03:58You know what, Matt?
03:58We haven't talked in a decade
03:59Okay?
04:00You shaking things up back in D.C.
04:02Is it really that surprising I was sent here to see the team in action?
04:07Garza was married to an S.A.C.?
04:09She wasn't an S.A.C. when they got married
04:12Or when they got divorced
04:13I wonder why it didn't work out
04:15No idea
04:15But I've heard stories about her
04:17Let's just say there's several agents she climbed over to get to where she is
04:22Please tell me you're not criticizing a woman for knowing how to compete in a man's world
04:27Come on, Laura, that's not cool
04:28I'd love to pick up rain, though
04:31Do us all a favor and don't
04:33In fact, maybe tone the Simone down to it, too
04:35For Garza's sake
04:37I'm going to pretend you didn't say that
04:39For your sake
04:41Are your offices in the main building?
04:45Yeah, no, it's actually
04:46Elena!
04:48Oh my goodness
04:50Look at you
04:50You're all grown up
04:52You know, I don't think I've seen you since you were in kindergarten
04:55How are you, sweetie?
04:57Hi, Auntie Candace
04:58Wait, do I still call you Auntie?
04:59Whatever you like
05:01Come here
05:02Matt
05:05Yeah
05:05We got a situation
05:07Right
05:07My daughter Bree has been missing for over two days
05:18And the police have not turned up a single lead
05:20I have never been a man to sit on the sidelines
05:23You do not make a hundred billion
05:25Waiting for someone else to do your dirty work
05:27So I am offering ten million dollars to anyone who can bring my daughter back to me
05:32No questions asked
05:33And by any means necessary
05:35If your actions land you in trouble with the police
05:38I will hire a dream team of lawyers
05:41To make sure you never see the inside of a jail cell
05:44Bottom line
05:45Get my daughter back
05:46And I'll make you rich
05:48Okay, this
05:49This is not good at all
05:50That kind of money will send dozens if not hundreds of vigilantes out into the street looking for her
05:55What do we know about the daughter?
05:56Bree Langham has been missing for 48 hours
05:58She's the daughter of Pierce Langham
06:00And their family owns the Langham Paper Empire
06:02It's a legacy brand
06:03Been around for three generations
06:05Her car was abandoned
06:06Her cell phone and wallet were dumped nearby
06:09The police are out looking for her boyfriend, Jameson Teague
06:11He's a party guy
06:12So rumor has it he deals some pills
06:14So he's the first person we should talk to
06:16Wait, hold up
06:17We're definitely working this case
06:19Just because her family has money?
06:21Simone, what are you doing?
06:22No disrespect to this girl
06:24And if she's missing, we gotta find her
06:25But there is a long list of women of color
06:29That don't get this kind of attention
06:30After they've been missing for only two days
06:32Special Agent Clark
06:33Are you suggesting the FBI is biased?
06:36Male agents outnumber women almost four to one
06:39And don't get me started on the low number of non-white people
06:42Who actually wear the badge
06:43Those imbalances directly impact the Bureau's perspective and priorities
06:49That's all I'm saying
06:50Yes, well, while you do have a point, Simone
06:52We are gonna be working this case
06:53Langham's video just lit a fuse
06:55And we need to act fast to get his daughter back
06:57Before anyone else gets hurt
06:58Laura, Brendan, go have a word with Mr. Langham
07:00Let him know that the feds are on the case now
07:02And get him to walk back that video
07:04The two of you, go squeeze the boyfriend, okay?
07:07I'll join him
07:08Happy to have you with us, ma'am
07:09Simone
07:11I don't know what she's up to
07:13But I can promise you it is not good for us
07:15So, best behavior, understood?
07:19You know, I told my father to just let the police handle this
07:21But it's Pierce Langham
07:22He always has to do things his way
07:24And that's the only way I get results
07:26I mean, the FBI couldn't even bother to send over a full-sized agent
07:30I understand how worried you are
07:33But I can assure you the FBI is doing everything they can
07:35Oh, give me a break
07:36Not a coincidence you only show up after I put out a bounty on Bree's kidnappers
07:41You're just trying to save your asses
07:43Look, sir, all we're saying is deputizing the entire country to take the law into their own hands is dangerous
07:50I don't care
07:50I burned down the world to bring my daughter back
07:53Money is the only thing that motivates
07:55In fact, I doubt the two of you get paid very much
07:58So, $10 million to whoever finds Bree
08:00Even you
08:01We're not for sale
08:02Right
08:03But we do expect you to give us any information or tips you receive
08:07Well, expect a way
08:08Just do it somewhere else
08:10You know, one of my main jobs around here is to apologize for my father
08:16So, of course, we'll share whatever information we get
08:19Right
08:19No, uh, ransom call yet?
08:22No
08:22And anyone want to hurt your sister?
08:24No, but there are plenty of people that want to take down our family
08:26Like who?
08:27Name it
08:28Competitors
08:29Environmental activists
08:30Conglomerates ready to swallow up a legacy company for foreign land rights
08:33Okay
08:34Could you, um
08:34Could you give us a detailed list?
08:37Yeah, of course
08:37So, Candace
08:40Are you ex-wife number one, two, or three?
08:43Uh, pardon my probationary agent
08:45She's clearly still very much in training
08:47And hasn't gleaned what it is and what isn't appropriate when addressing senior personnel
08:52Okay
08:53She's getting to know who we are, Carter
08:55I didn't think it would be an issue if we got to know her, too
08:58I'm ex-wife number one
09:00We met as rookies in Tampa
09:02Ooh
09:03I bet that chapter one was a romance straight out of Harlequin, huh?
09:08Anyway, let's talk about you
09:10Me?
09:10From guidance counselor to FBI agent
09:12That is quite the transition
09:14Is it everything you thought it would be?
09:16She's just apt, she gets to serve her community
09:19I think she can speak for herself
09:20Yeah
09:21I love being a fed
09:24I might feel differently if I wasn't in Garza's unit, though
09:28Where my style can be appreciated
09:31Explain
09:31I could be a little extra
09:34And, Carter, I can be a little extra, okay?
09:38But those statistics I cited earlier
09:41Those are the things that gotta change
09:43Because I want the Bureau to change from the inside
09:45So in order for that to happen
09:47What do you know?
09:48We're here
09:48Jameson T, FBI
09:52Carter, he's tied up in there
10:01FBI!
10:07Drop your weapon!
10:08Drop it!
10:13Get off me, man
10:13This guy kidnapped Brie Lange
10:15No, I did it, you moron
10:16I told you that when you came over and attacked me
10:19He's lying
10:20I live across the street
10:21I've heard him and Brie fight before
10:22And now she goes missing
10:24You do the math
10:25So what, you were gonna torture him for a confession?
10:27For a ten mil?
10:28Hell yeah
10:29Another rich dad is gonna keep me out of jail
10:31No, he's not, dummy
10:33You just shot at three federal agents
10:35Bye-bye, daylight
10:37Take him outside
10:37You got this
10:38Get off
10:42I swear, I have no idea what happened to Brie
10:45I would never hurt her
10:46Is there anything you didn't tell the police?
10:51Of course not
10:52We know about your record
10:53You had a couple of drug arrests
10:55And I get it
10:56You may be leery about talking to the cops
10:59But we don't care about your little pill hustle
11:02We just want to bring Brie home
11:04I do too
11:05You love her
11:07I can see that
11:09Baby, look at me
11:10I don't think you would do anything to hurt her
11:14But I need you to think
11:16Is there anything, no matter how small?
11:20I, uh, skimmed off my supplier
11:23It just took a few stacks
11:25I didn't think they'd notice
11:26But they came at me hard to pay it back
11:28Or else
11:28Look, folks like that don't tend to make idle threats
11:31You think they have something to do
11:33With Brie's disappearance?
11:34I was taking her to Gold Diggers the other day
11:36It's this dive bar that she likes
11:38Because she gets to pretend that she's not a billionaire
11:41Anyway, I caught this gray pickup truck following us
11:45So I faked like I was parking
11:48And sped away
11:50And I lost him
11:50Help!
11:52Help!
11:54Help!
11:55Please!
11:56Those guys are not trying to get at me!
12:00I guess I should have used a strong rock!
12:02No!
12:03No!
12:04No!
12:05No, get off of me!
12:06Gar, get the39!
12:07Stop!
12:08No!
12:09No!
12:10No!
12:11No!
12:12No!
12:12Stop!
12:13No!
12:14No!
12:15No!
12:16No!
12:17No!
12:18Oh no!
12:19No!
12:21No, get off of me!
12:22Car, get the door!
12:23No!
12:24No!
12:25Stop!
12:26No!
12:27No!
12:28No!
12:29Quiet!
12:30No!
12:33Chaz Fowler.
12:34He's got priors.
12:35Had a history of dealing drugs to the jet set.
12:37Yeah, Bree's boyfriend, Jameson, dealt for him.
12:40It shorted his supply.
12:41Maybe he abducted her as collateral.
12:43We got a bolo out for him.
12:44Hope you guys find him fast.
12:46This case is blowing up on social.
12:48Hashtag Savory is trending.
12:49And LAPD reported 17 incidences of assault and B&E related to vigilanteism.
12:54People trying to cash out.
12:55Oh, you read my mind.
12:56I could use a jolt.
12:57The coffee is for her.
13:01Wow.
13:02It's not enough that she got the condo and the divorce.
13:04Now she's back.
13:05She's trying to steal my niece from me.
13:06It's a quad shot.
13:07Half capped, two pumps of fat for hazelnut.
13:09Extra hot, lightly stirred, which is just wrong.
13:11I don't know how you put up with her as long as you did, Theo.
13:13Go on.
13:15Okay, so anyway, Jameson said that Chaz or someone from his crew followed him and Bree in a gray pickup truck.
13:25Somewhere along the way, they lost him.
13:27Maybe there's surveillance footage.
13:28Well, you and Brendan go find out.
13:30The two of you find this Chaz follower now.
13:33Simone, could I have a word, please?
13:36I got your personnel file.
13:39Los Angeles native.
13:40Mother of twins.
13:42Does it also say that I'm gifted at reading people?
13:45Because that should be in there.
13:47Oh, yeah?
13:48Observing and listening.
13:50For example, you've been hawking me more than anybody else on the team.
13:55The FBI is celebrating the 50-year anniversary of the first female special agent.
14:01That's that big gala in D.C. next month.
14:05Yeah.
14:06It's a calculated way for the Bureau to pat its own back.
14:08Lots of national media coverage.
14:10I am the chairperson of the events organizing committee.
14:13Would you be interested in speaking at the gala?
14:16The world needs to see and hear from agents like you.
14:20You want to promote my identity?
14:22I am impressed with your work and the fact that you represent different types of people that the Bureau sorely needs to.
14:29I get it.
14:30I check a lot of boxes.
14:32Yeah.
14:33Women of color.
14:34Of a certain age.
14:35And let's not forget LGBTQ+.
14:37And that makes you a unicorn inside the Bureau.
14:40Imagine your impact.
14:41You and me, we can do a lot of good together.
14:44So this is about more than just speaking at the gala?
14:48Well, it definitely could be.
14:50But we'll discuss that later.
14:51For now, let's just think about it.
14:54Okay.
14:55Gotcha.
14:56Thanks.
14:59It wasn't Chaz.
15:01For the past three days, he's been at Fort Lauderdale for his mother's funeral.
15:04That doesn't mean he didn't have somebody kidnapped Brie for him.
15:08We need to look into his known associates.
15:10Mm-hmm.
15:14Really?
15:15What?
15:16You're not going to tell me what all that with Candace was?
15:18Okay, nosy.
15:19Come on.
15:20I know you're dying to tell me.
15:26Okay, so she asked me to speak at that fancy gala in D.C. next month.
15:32Simone, you know what's happening, don't you?
15:33You're being groomed.
15:34And that speech is your audition.
15:36Well, I get it.
15:37It's a good look for the bureau to have a black queer woman of a certain age on the microphone.
15:45Yeah, but Candace is spearheading the effort.
15:47She must have big plans.
15:49But you heard Garza when it comes to her.
15:53Tread carefully.
15:54Oh, I know.
15:55This could either be a huge opportunity or a big derailment.
16:00But if you play your cards right, you'll be able to write your own ticket in the FBI.
16:03Just like Garza.
16:12We're looking for the owner.
16:13Trina's in the back.
16:14Let her know the FBI with like a few minutes of her time.
16:17Waiting for someone else to do your dirty work.
16:19And so I'm offering $10 million to anyone who can bring my daughter back to you.
16:24No questions asked and by any means necessary.
16:27Guy pushes your buttons, huh?
16:29No.
16:30Trouble with the police.
16:31I will hire a team of lawyers to make sure you never see me.
16:34I grew up around them like him.
16:35Not listening to reason.
16:37Throwing their money around with no regard for anyone else.
16:40Blame the guy.
16:41He's doing everything he can to get his daughter back.
16:43How do we know she wants to come back?
16:45There's no ransom, no proof of life, no body.
16:48How do we know Bree doesn't just want to hightail it away from her overbearing father?
16:52Get my daughter back.
16:54Hey.
16:55I'm the owner.
16:56What's up?
16:57FBI Agent Stenson.
16:58Special Agent Akers.
16:59We're looking into the disappearance of Bree Langham.
17:01A witness said she was seen outside this bar two nights ago.
17:03We saw that you have surveillance cameras on the street.
17:05Would you like to take a look at the footage?
17:06From two nights ago?
17:07Mm-hmm.
17:08Yeah, I don't have it.
17:09You don't have a DVR for your system?
17:11I did.
17:12Until this morning.
17:13This lady came in and installed a new security system for 50 bucks.
17:16Her company's doing a big promo this month.
17:19Right.
17:20She took the old DVR with her.
17:21She said she'd make sure they'd get recycled or something.
17:24Kidnappers covering our tracks.
17:27Did you happen to pay with the Cash App?
17:31Special Agent Stenson.
17:32This is Special Agent Akers.
17:34I suggest you let us in.
17:36You guys got here fast.
17:37Hey.
17:43You were expecting us?
17:44I mean, yeah.
17:45If I wanted to cover my tracks, I wouldn't have used my Cash App.
17:49Why exactly did you take the surveillance footage from the bar where Bree Langham was last seen?
17:54There's two options.
17:55A, you abducted her yourself.
17:57You're covering your tracks.
17:58Or B, you're working for whoever did.
18:00There's a C.
18:01I'm like a consultant.
18:02For vigilantes.
18:04Oh.
18:05I saw Scrooge McDuck's video.
18:08First, I was like,
18:09$10 million.
18:10Hell yeah.
18:12Then I was like, nah, leave that Punisher type nonsense to the Roid Ragers.
18:17Hmm.
18:18So what exactly have you been doing?
18:19Compiling intel on Bree.
18:21Her social media, contacts, calendar, emails, tracked her lasso locations.
18:27Figured all the other Bree hunters might want to know.
18:30Hmm.
18:31Then I started selling it.
18:32$1,500 gets you access to my premium info subscription.
18:35That surveillance video just went live.
18:37Yeah, you gotta give us that video now.
18:39Yeah?
18:40I take cash?
18:41Crypto?
18:44Or I can give it to you out of the goodness of my heart.
18:47Good answer.
18:49Okay, boss.
18:50Uh, check this out.
18:51Jameson and Bree pull up at 527 PM.
18:55Then a gray pickup pulls up behind them, just like Jameson said.
18:58He takes off, they follow.
19:01We got the plate.
19:04The truck is registered to Davis Yang, address in Santa Clarita.
19:08Yeah, remote, isolated, perfect place to hide someone.
19:11Grab Carter and Simone and check it out, go.
19:13Check it out, go.
19:37FBI, we have a warrant!
19:38Flashbang.
19:40Bodies!
19:41Is it Bree?
19:42No.
19:43Her kidnappers.
19:44Two of them, at least.
19:45Where the hell is Bree?
19:47All right, homeowner's names are Davis Yang and Randy Batten.
19:48They're bouncers at an upscale club in Hollywood.
19:49Door 47.
19:50Door 47.
19:51Are there any connections to Bree?
19:52Preliminary reports, no.
19:53And there's no history of violent crime.
19:54Something's not adding up.
19:55Yeah, these guys kidnapped Bree and held it for two days without asking.
19:56I don't know.
19:57I don't know.
19:58I don't know.
19:59I don't know.
20:00I don't know.
20:01I don't know.
20:02I don't know.
20:03I don't know.
20:04I don't know.
20:05I don't know.
20:06I don't know.
20:07I don't know.
20:08I don't know.
20:09I don't know.
20:10I don't know.
20:11I don't know.
20:12I don't know.
20:13I don't know.
20:14Yeah, these guys kidnapped Bree and held it for two days without asking for a ransom.
20:18Held on to her after a $10 million no questions asked reward was offered.
20:23But why?
20:24Wait a minute.
20:25Wait a minute.
20:26We assume Bree was kidnapped because of her father's wealth.
20:29But what if there's something that we're missing?
20:30What if this had more to do with Bree than we initially thought?
20:32We should do a deep dive on her.
20:34Wait, someone already has.
20:36Remember Cleo, the vigilante consultant?
20:38She hacked Bree's entire life.
20:40Her text messages, emails, even her diary.
20:42I have a copy of the dossier.
20:43Good.
20:44Check everything and anything.
20:45Because if we find out who wanted Bree out of the way, we'll find Bree.
20:48Yeah.
20:52Hey.
20:53Any leads on Bree?
20:54One or two.
20:55Do the names Davis Yang and Randy Batten mean anything to you?
20:59Bouncer, door 47.
21:00You're a regular there.
21:01Okay.
21:02What do they have to do with this?
21:03They kidnapped her.
21:04Really?
21:05They didn't ask for a ransom?
21:06That's weird, right?
21:07Is it?
21:08I mean, you did pay them to do it, so.
21:10I...
21:11That's ridiculous.
21:12I didn't do that.
21:13According to her emails, this company is scheduled to vote on a motion removing Pierce Langham
21:16as chairman of the board tomorrow.
21:17Right.
21:18You were attempting a coup.
21:19You were gonna replace the old man.
21:21But Bree was the swing vote, and you knew that she would vote against you, but if she
21:24didn't show, then you could take control, have all the power.
21:27Yeah, brother exiling his sister to seize his father's crown, that's a very Shakespearean
21:32Greek tragedy.
21:33Yeah, you both.
21:34Yeah.
21:35I didn't think you had it in you, attacking your sister, trying to stab me in the back.
21:40Dad, none of this is true.
21:41Well, they're dead.
21:43Both Davis and Randy murdered, which makes you an accessory.
21:48How dare you accuse me without an ounce of proof.
21:51What about the million dollars that was wired from your offshore shell corporation to Randy
21:55and Davis' security consultant firm after Bree went missing?
21:59Yeah.
22:00Tate Langham, you're under arrest.
22:02Don't move.
22:03Put your hands around your back.
22:05Yeah.
22:06Let's get him out of here.
22:17I get it.
22:18You hold the fate of my unit in your hands.
22:21I don't need an illustration.
22:23You figure out why I'm here yet?
22:25Did she tell you?
22:26Simone?
22:27Yeah, she did.
22:28You're vetting her for recruitment.
22:29Of course, you couldn't have just asked me first before sauntering in here and trying
22:32to poach a member of my team, huh?
22:34This is a dream opportunity for a new recruit.
22:37This could be great for her career.
22:39Matt, do not stand in her way.
22:40Okay, see?
22:41That.
22:43That's what gets under my skin.
22:45Your games.
22:46Everything is a chess match with you.
22:48It's exhausting.
22:49Look, if Simone wants to go with you, fine.
22:51She's a grown woman.
22:52That's her choice.
22:53But trust me, she will be wasted on you.
22:56It's always been your problem.
22:58No vision.
22:59No vision.
23:00That's...
23:03Does Simone understand that she'll have to play by your rules?
23:06Are you questioning her discipline or my leadership?
23:10Excuse me.
23:14Remember when I told you the new kidnappers used the flashbang?
23:17Turns out it was restricted military grade.
23:19Yeah, we're trying to source it.
23:20If we're lucky, maybe we'll get a hit.
23:22Hey there.
23:24Am I interrupted?
23:25A front desk called.
23:26Said he was here.
23:27Daddy, I am so sorry.
23:29I forgot we were having lunch today.
23:31You ate already?
23:32No, but my quiet paperwork day turned into a not-so-quiet case.
23:37Hey, it'll take a beat to source that flashbang evidence.
23:39I'll call you if we get something.
23:40You sure?
23:41Yeah.
23:42Thanks.
23:43Oh.
23:44It looked great seeing you all again.
23:45You, I don't know.
23:46Daddy, this is Candace Thurlow.
23:48She's the SAC from DC.
23:51Candace, this is my-
23:52Christopher Clark.
23:53My pleasure.
23:54Hmm.
23:55How do you know my name?
23:56Hmm.
23:57Hold on.
23:58Let me guess.
23:59The FBI has a big old file on me.
24:01I just do my homework.
24:02Mm-hmm.
24:03And what is your assignment?
24:04Daddy.
24:05Hmm?
24:06It's your first time here.
24:08Why don't I give you a tour?
24:09Come on.
24:10See y'all later.
24:11Damn.
24:12You sound surprised.
24:13They're slicker than I imagined.
24:14I mean, these fixtures cost five grand each.
24:16Y'all couldn't get by with some lamps from Home Depot?
24:17Why you gotta be so cheap?
24:18I'm not.
24:19The government should be, especially since it's the taxpayers' money they're using.
24:35Hmm.
24:36Okay.
24:37This is the heartbeat of the place.
24:40This is where we have our morning briefings and come together to solve cases.
24:45So, you've seen it all.
24:48Boom.
24:49My home away from home.
24:50I got quite a hookup.
24:52Look at the size of this TV.
24:55Right?
24:56Huh.
24:57Oh, Daddy.
24:58That nosy lady that pulled your file, she's also looking into my history too.
25:04She wants me to help recruit.
25:05Oh, that's why she knows so much about us.
25:08She's vetting you.
25:09They're looking for a mascot.
25:11Well, if they want to publicize my identity, they have to let me tell my truth, not just
25:17cosign for the FBI.
25:18I mean, I don't agree with all their practices.
25:21But, Candace might ding me if I don't follow her lead.
25:25I'm worried, Daddy.
25:26Look, worry is just a negative prayer.
25:31You figure it out.
25:32I want to make a difference.
25:34You already are.
25:37Let me ask you something.
25:39You got cable?
25:41I mean, I love to watch a game up in here.
25:44Teddy!
25:45Mmm.
25:46Come on.
25:47Apologies.
25:48Mr. Langham should be off the phone shortly.
25:57How about reminding him this is about his kidnapped daughter?
26:01You know what?
26:02Screw him.
26:03Hey, you can't go in there.
26:05Sir, we need to talk now.
26:10Your son is in custody.
26:11There is a $10 million bounty up for grabs, and it's only a matter of time before these
26:15new kidnappers contact you to cash in on that reward.
26:18So we need to monitor your phones and trace the call when it comes in.
26:21That won't be necessary.
26:23I just spoke to one of them.
26:24Did they say where she is?
26:26They didn't.
26:27Especially not after I told him that I wasn't paying him a dime.
26:30You what?
26:31You offered a massive reward for the return of your daughter, and you're going to take
26:35it back?
26:36Her life is at stake.
26:37You only put up that reward because you need Bree to attend the board meeting tomorrow
26:40and vote in your favor.
26:41Yeah.
26:42But he doesn't need that now.
26:43So he's just going to leave her out there with those murderers.
26:46What kind of father does that?
26:47It's 12 o'clock on a Friday night.
26:50Things are ruined my way.
26:52I just got off the way.
26:54Heading down to the interstate.
26:57With the window down, it's a blowin' night.
27:00Got you regular spicy.
27:01I know you like it hot, but the loco level is so intense that you do gloves with your
27:06order.
27:07It won't get on your skin.
27:08It's absurd.
27:09What are we still doing with that?
27:14This is a beat beat, blown up.
27:16Relax.
27:17Daddy's not paying, so she's useless.
27:19And a liability.
27:20You are so negative.
27:21You always have been.
27:22Come on, man.
27:23We're having fun.
27:25Saw some action.
27:26Killed two hostels.
27:29Now you got your hands on the best chicken sando in LA.
27:33As far as the princess goes, I have a contingency plan.
27:38Remember Belgrade?
27:41Payday's coming.
27:43Trust.
27:44So, Mr. Moneybags won't pay to get his baby girl back?
27:51No.
27:52Damn.
27:53That's cold-blooded.
27:54Yeah.
27:55And it puts our new kidnappers in an awkward position.
27:57Yeah, they only took Bree for a big payday.
27:59What do they do with her when they don't get one?
28:00Well, if she can identify him, letting her go is out of the question.
28:03Yeah, they already killed two people, so clearly they are capable of anything.
28:06I was able to pin down the kidnapper's burner phone number that called Pierce.
28:09I'll get a warrant.
28:10Good.
28:11Yeah.
28:12You contact me as soon as you have it.
28:13Boss, can I talk to you for a second?
28:15Yeah.
28:16Of course.
28:17Sit up.
28:23It's Candace, isn't it?
28:25Yeah.
28:26I just wanted to know what you think about her offer.
28:32I can't make that decision for you.
28:34I'm not asking you to.
28:35I would just love to know your thoughts.
28:38This morning, I asked you a question, right?
28:42What kind of agent do you want to be?
28:44I want to be doing what I'm doing right now, outside with this unit.
28:49Sounds like you have your answer.
28:50But I joined to change the FBI from within.
28:53I'm just one person in the institution.
28:56What if there were more of me?
28:58I don't know if the FBI can handle more than one Simone Clark.
29:01Look, there are no wrong answers here, Simone.
29:07I want you to succeed.
29:11You've worked real hard.
29:13And you've earned your place here at the FBI.
29:15And in my unit.
29:16And you've done it your way.
29:19If I became the face of the FBI, you think they'd let me do it my way?
29:25Probably not.
29:30We're on with Brendan and Laura.
29:31What did we find?
29:32We pinned the location of the burner phone that called Pierce.
29:34Is that a parking structure in East Hollywood on Ucrine Pine?
29:36We gotta get there before they're on the move.
29:38We're not far from it.
29:39We'll go, go, go, go.
29:40I'll send backup.
29:43All right, that's our suspect.
29:45Oh.
29:46He's got a gun.
29:50Put the gun down!
29:56What's your name?
29:58Van.
29:59Van.
30:00Tell me, what happened?
30:02Where's Bree?
30:03My son of a bitch ex-partner.
30:05He the one who shot you?
30:07Okay, what's his name?
30:13Come on, why are you protecting him?
30:15Anything you tell us now can only help you.
30:22Screw that bastard.
30:25His name is Finn Matheson.
30:26We need an ambulance to my location.
30:29Why'd he shoot you?
30:30When the dad wouldn't pay, I wanted out.
30:32Okay.
30:33Finn wouldn't take no for an answer.
30:34Where did he go?
30:37No clue.
30:38The one thing I do know is Finn's gonna get his money no matter what.
30:41We need your help, Mr. Langham.
30:43Are you offering us a deal?
30:44If not, we're walking.
30:45No deals.
30:46I just need you to listen.
30:47You set off a deadly chain of events with your abduction scheme.
30:50The men you hired are dead, and the vigilantes who killed them took your sister.
30:53Now, if your father upheld his end of the bargain and paid out the $10 million reward to whomever brought her back safe, Bree could be home right now.
31:00But when the vigilantes contacted Mr. Pierce, he rescinded his offer.
31:04What?
31:05That's unbelievable.
31:06Take not a word.
31:07The man who now has your sister, his name is Finn Matheson.
31:11He's a mercenary.
31:12Know what that means?
31:13He kills for money.
31:14And he doesn't take hearing the word no very well.
31:16Now, we believe he's on his way to find your father as we speak.
31:19And he will get his money one way or another.
31:23Okay.
31:24Look, we know that your relationship with your family is complicated.
31:29But now his life and your sister's life are hanging in the balance.
31:34Your father's office has completely shut us out on his orders.
31:37They won't give us his location, so if you have any idea where he might be...
31:40What time is it?
31:42It's 4.47.
31:43My father, he has a standing appointment every day at 5 p.m.
31:47Where is he?
31:48Just wait.
31:49I'm telling you he'll be here.
31:51If they're lying to me.
31:52I wouldn't lie.
31:54I promise.
31:56I can't count on my father for much.
31:58But he never misses this.
32:05See?
32:07It's his car.
32:10LAPD's five minutes out. We're gonna beat him there.
32:13So this is the daddy's girlfriend's apartment?
32:15Apparently, they have a standing date every day at 5 p.m.
32:18Got one. Guess what it's for.
32:20Keeping a booty call on the calendar even after his daughter's been kidnapped?
32:23He's even more messed up than we thought.
32:26I'm gonna go talk to him.
32:28You make a sound.
32:30Try to get anyone's attention while I'm gone.
32:33You're dead.
32:43Hey!
32:44Couldn't just give me my money, could you?
32:46All right.
32:47Now you're gonna do what I say.
32:48Okay.
32:49Huh?
32:50Okay.
32:51All right.
32:52Get up to this car.
32:53Whatever you want.
32:54Whatever you want.
32:55Get out your phone.
32:56You're gonna wire this money into this account.
32:57And the price just went up to $15 million.
32:59Okay.
33:00Get out of here.
33:02Okay.
33:03You son of a-
33:05Ah!
33:10Simone, stay with Brie.
33:11I got Pierce.
33:12Laura, on me.
33:13Brie, I'm here to help you.
33:17My name is Samaa.
33:18Alissa Maia.
33:37He's up ahead.
33:48Police! Don't do weapon!
33:55Don't do weapon!
34:01Subject is down.
34:15Honey.
34:17You bastard.
34:20Pierce Langham is out of surgery and expected to pull through.
34:24I wish we could say the same about his driver.
34:26Well, how's Bree?
34:27Physically, she's fine, but after what she's been through...
34:30Well, that family really showed their true colors.
34:33There's no coming back from all that.
34:34Listen, I know it's been a long day, team,
34:36but there is one more thing before you go home.
34:38Candace has arranged a press conference.
34:40Are you serious?
34:41Yes.
34:42She wants it made clear that Bree has been found
34:44so that any wannabe vigilantes stand down.
34:46Smart.
34:47Doesn't hurt that she can grab some PR for herself in the process.
34:50True, but we do have to play nice.
34:52So what do we do?
34:53Nothing. Just stand there.
34:54Trust me. Candace will do all the talking.
34:55All right. Looking good, team.
34:57Ready for you.
35:01I'm going to introduce you during the press conference.
35:03I want the suits in D.C. to see you shine.
35:06But this was a group effort.
35:08I don't feel right being singled out.
35:10Oh, trust me. It's a good warm-up for next month's gala.
35:12I haven't even said yes. I...
35:14Just say it's a pleasure to serve.
35:16Right, but ma'am, I...
35:17It's a pleasure to serve.
35:19The Bureau is extremely grateful to Supervisory Special Agent Matthew Garza
35:29and his Special Investigative Unit for rescuing Bree Langham,
35:32bringing her kidnappers to justice,
35:34and putting an end to this vigil anti-violence.
35:37I would like to single out one Special Agent
35:39whose unique insights went above and beyond this case,
35:43could not have been closed without her.
35:45Congratulations, Special Agent Simone Clark.
35:54It's a pleasure to serve,
35:56but I cannot accept congratulations on this case.
36:00It was tragic on so many levels.
36:03A young woman was abducted, lives were lost. Why?
36:06Because a dysfunctional family
36:09flaunted their wealth to buy our attention.
36:12They even felt so entitled,
36:15they took advantage of this agency's expertise and resources
36:19to rescue them from their own greed run amok.
36:23Thank you, Special Agent Clark.
36:25You're welcome.
36:26The FBI needs to focus more taxpayer dollars
36:30on those victims without means.
36:32The forgotten faces.
36:34The underrepresented that routinely falls through the cracks.
36:37Then, and only then,
36:40can we recognize ourselves for a job well done.
36:43Thank you. That concludes today's press conference.
36:49Thank you all.
36:50You had five words.
36:52What the hell was that?
36:53I told you, I can be a little extra.
36:56And when I get in my fields, I can't hold my time.
37:00What?
37:01And the thing, I was worried that you'd get promoted before me,
37:08and I'd have to work for you one day.
37:10That is definitely not gonna happen now.
37:13Wanna bet?
37:14Yes.
37:15Okay, it's a bet.
37:19So, once you call a special meeting, all you need is a basic quorum
37:22and proxies from the absent board members.
37:24And if they start holding out on you, just remind them of the hit
37:27the share price will take if they keep your father at the helm.
37:29Yeah.
37:30Good luck.
37:32Hey.
37:33What was that all about?
37:34That was Brie.
37:35I was just talking her through the steps of taking over as president
37:38of the family business.
37:39And stripping her father and brother of their board seats while she's at it.
37:43Huh.
37:44So baby sister's gonna get the crown after all?
37:46That's right.
37:49How do you know about all this, like, boardroom stuff?
37:52Oh, I know all types of ways of getting sweet revenge.
37:56Remind me never to get on your bad side.
37:58I'm like you needed the reminder.
38:09Didn't exactly go as planned, did it?
38:11Just, can you try not to enjoy it so much?
38:14I won't.
38:15I'm lying.
38:16I'm gonna rewatch that tape like a million times, Candace.
38:18The look, the look on your face.
38:21Stop.
38:22Listen, what you said before about everything being a chess move with me, it's true.
38:35You know why I'd do it?
38:36Yeah.
38:37When we got married and, uh, you came back to work.
38:41You got high fives and jokes about the ball in the chain.
38:45I came back to a betting pool on how long before I quit or got knocked up, as if landing a husband was the entire reason I joined the FBI.
38:58But why, why, why didn't you tell me that?
39:11I'm sorry, Candace.
39:13It's not right we were treated differently.
39:15It's not.
39:16Mm-hmm.
39:17I, I resented it.
39:22I resented you, which was wrong.
39:28But now I am a special agent in charge.
39:39One of very few women in the entire country that holds that position.
39:43Yeah.
39:44Yeah.
