00:37.
00:57Hey, forget the coffee. Check my screen.
01:01Santa Barbara Approach. This is Ventura Tower.
01:04We have a 747 coming in low and slow. Did you send a heavy our way?
01:16We've completed the four-corner search mark.
01:19And every part of the plane has been accounted for except the aft cargo door.
01:23Lieutenant Sloan, LAPD homicide.
01:25You recognize this...
01:26I'm Rod Wagner, FBI.
01:29This is my investigation.
01:30Looks like he fell from quite a height.
01:33You know who that is?
01:35Victor Pavel. He's seriously connected to the Russian mob.
01:38You know, he had a half a pair of handcuffs on him when we found him.
01:42Pavel was in custody.
01:43Four days ago, Interpol cornered him in a club in St. Petersburg.
01:47My partner, Mike Keegan, went over to escort him back to the United States.
01:52Oh, I'm sorry. We didn't know your partner was on that plane.
01:55So, joint jurisdiction on this? For the moment.
01:58The body found in that field. I want to see it.
02:01Don't you ever do anything politely?
02:02Not when I'm in a hurry.
02:03So there definitely was a fire on board.
02:05Oh, yeah. Definitely. I mean, look at this.
02:08Isn't it true there was some kind of gun battle on Flight 224?
02:12You know, as I said at the outset, this investigation has really just begun.
02:17And until it's completed, I'm not going to have any...
02:18We've learned there was a federal agent escorting a prisoner on the plane.
02:21Wasn't this agent shot and killed in the course of the flight?
02:23And didn't his prisoner fire the fatal shot as part of some terrorist suicide mission?
02:28Well, we just finished the final body count of the plane.
02:30And get this, two passengers are definitely missing.
02:33Oh, this is going to be a long day.
02:37Which is why we ought to get some sleep.
02:39I don't think so.
02:40I checked the cargo manifest against what was found.
02:44And there's a shipment from Bavaria Express and it's still missing.
02:49What the hell is going on?
02:50The crash victims, they're all radioactive.
03:37So, listen to them.
03:41This is reading low levels of radiation, just like everything else.
03:51We've checked everything. Pieces of the wreckage, seats, covered cargo.
03:56Everything's radioactive, just like all the passengers.
03:58Radioactive? So you're telling me that Flight 224 was brought down by a nuclear bomb?
04:03No, I don't think so. The eyewitnesses saw the plane explode on impact.
04:07Now, if a nuclear device brought it down, there would be radioactive fallout all over the place.
04:11We've deployed hazard teams over 50 square miles just in case,
04:15but no one has picked up any radioactivity yet.
04:18Wow. All I know is that I've got a crashed 747 and 300 radioactive corpses in the morgue,
04:25and I need to know why before another jet goes down and more people die.
04:31Maybe it is some kind of terrorist attack.
04:34Yeah, but why would terrorists radiate a plane of 300 people and then crash it?
04:38It just doesn't make any sense.
04:40Terrorists don't make sense. They make statements.
04:42But then they release it to the press, and nobody's taken credit for this yet.
04:47I don't know how, I don't know why, but somebody crashed this plane and they could do it again.
04:52This was no accident.
04:53You know what it may have been?
04:55There's nothing radioactive on the 747.
04:57But there could have been on this flight.
04:59We know that an FBI agent was bringing a prisoner back.
05:02The Russian mafia chief Viktor Pavel.
05:04Two men took over the plane, they freed Pavel, and they parachuted out.
05:08Only we know they weren't really trying to rescue Pavel. That was a cover.
05:11They were stealing cargo from the Bavarian Express shipment.
05:14Which is still missing, and I think that is the source of the radiation.
05:18We know there was a fire in the cargo hold.
05:21Now, what if the radioactive shipment ignited accidentally?
05:25Maybe from that gunfight with the agent.
05:27Well, then the smoke could have dispersed radioactive particles throughout the plane.
05:31And then the passengers breathed the smoke and became irradiated.
05:34Just a minute to think.
05:35I mean, that shipment, that shipment weighed 10 kilos.
05:39Well, a half a kilo could have irradiated a plane that size.
05:42And exposed everybody on board.
05:44Why were they trying to smuggle radioactive material into the U.S. in the first place?
05:48Wouldn't it have been just as easy to steal it here?
05:50No. Security in American nuclear installations is pretty tight.
05:54But in the former Soviet Union, the stuff is, well, very accessible.
05:58It wouldn't be that hard for the Russian mafia to get a hold of some and smuggle it out.
06:02Why would the Russian mafia kill one of their own people as a cover to steal their own shipment?
06:06No, they wouldn't.
06:07Whoever was smuggling the stuff had no reason to steal the shipment off the plane in mid-flight.
06:11Which means we're dealing with two different groups here.
06:14The original smugglers and the hijackers who used that escape attempt by Pavel to cover up stealing the shipment.
06:22Then who killed him and 300 innocent people?
06:25And we haven't answered the big question.
06:27Who has that 10 kilos of radioactive material and what do they intend to do with it?
06:31Ah, Agent Wagner, you know, we've just confirmed that the radio...
06:35Radioactive material is being smuggled on 224.
06:38Interpol just turned up a fence in Prague and got very fat off of selling some used fuel rods.
06:44Thanks for the good work.
06:47The FBI's taking over now.
06:54So that's it, huh?
06:55Good work, people. Now you can just go away.
06:58Amanda, this is now a criminal investigation.
07:01The Bureau steps in and the NTSB...
07:03Takes a hike.
07:04I do not have a choice here.
07:06This is a matter of national security. I have to follow procedure.
07:09Is that to say that we can't?
07:10That's not the issue.
07:11We're talking about people who committed mass murder just to smuggle in black market radioactive material.
07:16We're not just talking a plane crash anymore. We're talking Russian mafia...
07:21That's not necessarily so.
07:23Mark has found compelling evidence that your partner and Victor Pavel may have been murdered by someone other than the
07:28mafia.
07:29Mysterious missing passengers, right?
07:31Why are you so fixated on one solution when there may be others?
07:35Amanda, I've been doing this job for a while. I'm pretty good at it.
07:39I know that, Ron. But there are other possibilities.
07:44Simple answer is usually the right one.
07:46You know, I think you're letting your need to be right get in the way of finding the truth.
07:49And I think you're letting your emotions get in the way, period.
07:52My emotions? What about your emotions?
07:53That plane crashed and killed 300 people, including your partner.
07:57And you and I had just...
07:59Forget it.
08:03Yes.
08:05You and I.
08:11Remember what I said about emotions and the jobs we do?
08:15That was about the family's grief. That wasn't about us.
08:19Maybe not then.
08:23I don't... I don't have a choice here.
08:26About any of this.
08:29Please try to understand.
08:32I can't.
08:40Yes?
08:44There he is!
08:45I can't find a thing.
09:06Dr. Sloan.
09:07Yes.
09:08Oh, excuse me.
09:10You've been so kind.
09:12May I impose on you once more?
09:13Of course you can.
09:14What can I do?
09:15Well, I've spent all morning looking for that packet
09:18Atlantic representative.
09:19Ted Sherman?
09:20Yes.
09:21He was supposed to give me a release for my husband's remains.
09:24Only Mr. Sherman's not in his office or at the crash site.
09:27Nobody knows where he is.
09:29He could be in the Amie office.
09:30No, I just came from there.
09:32And now Dr. Travis says that all the bodies and personal effects...
09:38I'm being held for an indeterminate length of time, I know.
09:41I'm sorry.
09:43Please.
09:44Can you tell me what's going on?
09:46I wish I could.
09:48Look, I promise you, just as soon as it's possible, I'll explain everything.
09:52You know, in the meantime, just try to get this out of your mind.
09:55I know that's very hard, but try to get away from it.
09:58Take a rest.
10:00You sound like my husband, Louis.
10:02He was always telling me to get away from things.
10:05Slow down.
10:06Take it easy.
10:07Good advice.
10:09You know, I have a little spot on the beach out by my house.
10:11I call it my getting-it-together place.
10:13And just being there restores my perspective, my sense of purpose.
10:17Mm-hmm.
10:18I have a place like that, too.
10:20A park near the sea.
10:22I can sit on a bench, watch the boats and the channel, and find myself.
10:28My prescription?
10:29Exactly.
10:30Thank you, Dr. Slow.
10:38Tough, huh?
10:40Tough wasn't even a word for it.
10:41Anything I can do to help?
10:43You know, Jess, it occurred to me that before those hijackers bailed out, they must have breathed
10:48some of the same smoke the passengers did.
10:49And by now, they must be pretty sick.
10:51Oh, deathly.
10:52Vomiting, diarrhea, bleeding from the gums and lips and all the soft tissue.
10:56Classic radiation mucositis.
10:58Yeah, and a physician might easily mistake that for a virulent yeast infection like thrush.
11:03You want me to fax over the local hospital, see if any patients have come in with severe
11:07thrush-like indices?
11:08Yeah, and probably patients who refuse long-term care.
11:11Yeah, okay, you got it.
11:13Jess, have you seen Ted Sherman?
11:15No, no, not since yesterday.
11:17Yesterday.
11:25You were right about Ted Sherman, Dad.
11:27The man's missing.
11:28What's more, his apartment's been torn apart.
11:31We need to find Mr. Sherman right away.
11:33You think his disappearance is connected to the hijacking?
11:36Well, he wouldn't be the first airline employee that became a smuggler.
11:39Well, whether he did or didn't, we're no longer involved, remember?
11:42Wagner booted us off the case.
11:44He doesn't want anyone coming between him and the Russian mafia.
11:47Well, I don't think this has anything to do with the mafia.
11:50The business with Ted Sherman just wasn't simple burglary, isn't it?
11:53Which means I'm free to investigate.
11:55With our help.
11:57Oh, I wouldn't have it any other way, even if I had a choice.
11:59You look happy this afternoon.
12:01And why shouldn't I be?
12:02It's a lovely day.
12:03The sky is clear, the sun is out, and I just got an answer to our facts.
12:07Check it out.
12:09It's finished.
12:11All right, would you read that?
12:14Clinic in Fillmore treated two patients this morning for a severe case of thrush.
12:18And they refused long-term care.
12:20Let's go.
12:21We can pick up a man down the way.
12:23Call me.
12:30Two men, middle 30s, foreign accents, and very, very sick.
12:35Look at those profiles.
12:37Wow.
12:38Bleeding mucosi, severe diarrhea, intense vomiting.
12:42They needed immediate hospitalization, which I recommended in the strongest possible terms,
12:46but they refused.
12:47They paid cash, and they left.
12:49Any idea where we might find them?
12:52I'm afraid not.
12:53They didn't leave an address or a phone number, just their names.
12:55Bill Smith and Bob Jones.
12:57Well, this may be tough.
12:59These guys are obviously very imaginative.
13:01Listen, doctor, we really need to find a line on these men.
13:04Did they say anything that might help us find them?
13:06No.
13:08But what about their car?
13:11A red sedan with an Ojai Rents decal in the rear window.
13:17Now, if you'll excuse me, we have chickenpox running riot in the kindergarten.
13:20Thanks.
13:22So what do we do now?
13:24Well, let's say we cruise the local motels.
13:26All three of them and look for a red sedan.
13:28With Ojai Rents decals.
13:30They're as sick as Dr. Fleming says they are.
13:31They haven't gotten very far.
13:52Call Ojai Rents.
13:53I'll call in for backup.
13:56You better call fast.
13:57I think somebody just saw us.
13:59Get down!
14:11Stay down!
14:12Let's go!
14:19THE END
14:46I got a bad feeling they handed it off to whoever they were working for.
14:49Well, he's not gonna be working for anybody anymore.
14:51They're not gonna regain consciousness.
14:54It's a horrible way to die.
14:55They earned it.
14:56Have you run the prints yet?
14:57Yeah.
14:59It's a Milan Pozier and a Karl Maserick.
15:02Interpol's got a long rap sheet on both of them.
15:04Get this.
15:05The last known place of employment was Prague.
15:07They were ramp agents for Pac Atlantic.
15:09Uh-oh.
15:10You think he's gonna arrest us or just shoot us on sight?
15:13I ought to have the federal marshals throw the three of you in jail for interfering in an FBI investigation.
15:17What investigation, Angie Wagner?
15:19According to you, those two men never even existed.
15:24Over there.
15:30Think she's gonna shoot him?
15:31We're lucky.
15:34You people need to back off.
15:35Why?
15:36Because we punctured your mafia theory?
15:37Because you're getting in my way.
15:38No, you're not mad at us.
15:39You're mad at Mike Keegan.
15:43You have survivor's guilt, Ron.
15:45You're just as much a victim as those poor people who laid flowers at that crash site.
15:49And until you learn to deal with that anger, you're gonna remain mad at me and everybody else.
15:55I should have been there.
15:56What? What are you-
15:57No, it's not survivor's guilt.
16:01Mike and I were assigned to bring Victor Pavel in.
16:04Only I wanted a lousy couple days off so Mike covered for me.
16:08Like he always did.
16:12If I'd have been there, we could have handled the situation.
16:14You don't know that.
16:15The hell I don't.
16:16If you had been on that plane, you would have died.
16:18And we never would have met.
16:28I need to make a phone call.
16:31As a doctor, a community general has got a lot more sense than I do.
16:34Especially about this case.
16:35I'd like him to work on it.
16:37With me.
16:40If you will.
16:48According to Interpol, Laveria Express is a legitimate operation.
16:52I hear a butt in there somewhere.
16:54Butt?
16:55Bavaria's dispatchers said they didn't have any cargo on flight 224.
16:59But it's on the manifest.
17:00Which was bogus.
17:02Along with the assignee who should have met the shipment at customs, but he never showed.
17:07Tracking him down will be next to impossible.
17:08Well, maybe not.
17:09Mark thinks whoever smuggled the fuel rods might have booked a flight on the plane.
17:13To babysit the shipment?
17:14A smart move which didn't work?
17:16Thanks to the hijackers.
17:18Dr. Sloan, thanks for coming.
17:20I apologize for the accident.
17:22Look, what we've got to focus on now is finding Ted Sherman and those fuel rods.
17:26Ted Sherman, the, uh, Pac-Atlantic rep?
17:28He's disappeared and his apartment was ransacked.
17:30Which may be unrelated to the crash of flight 224.
17:33Maybe not, but what if it is?
17:34What if it's a crime of opportunity?
17:36You know, Ted Sherman was certainly in the right place to pull it off.
17:39Or know people who could do it for him.
17:42I'm gonna try to stay open here. Lead me through, okay?
17:45The first thing that Sherman did when he found out they were smuggling the fuel rods was to contact a
17:50couple of crooked rampages back in Frog.
17:52Melon and Carl, two very shady characters he was familiar with.
17:56According to the passenger list, they were seated right here, just sitting and waiting for the plane to hit its
18:01final approach before they made their move.
18:03Which was?
18:03To retrieve their weapons, get the bolt cutters and line them wherever they were hidden.
18:07Getting guns on that plane probably wasn't that tough for a couple of airline employees.
18:11I imagine getting the guns on was pretty simple, but then the next move was a little more involved.
18:15Our hijackers were very careful to pick seats that were next to Pavel and your partner.
18:20Go on.
18:21So while one went over and disarmed Keegan and took the cuffs off Pavel,
18:27the other one went into the flight deck and took charge of the plane.
18:30And it was his voice on the cockpit recorder and not Pavel's.
18:34He almost feels sorry for the little slime ball.
18:37He must have thought his mafia pals had come through for him.
18:40Imagine the shock when they went down to the cargo hold and Pavel realized what they were really after.
18:44Then found out what was in store for him.
18:47It would have been just like Mike, pulling his backup gun and following him down here.
18:51Shots were exchanged. A fire started. Unfortunately, your friend was killed.
18:56They threw Pavel out with the parachute they had stored in here.
18:59They strapped on their own chutes and jumped out.
19:01Along with whatever was left to the phony Bavaria Express shipment.
19:06But the irony is that they already were as good as dead since they were exposed to radioactive smoke.
19:11That didn't mean start a fire. It didn't even mean for the plane to crash.
19:14It was all supposed to look like a daring escape attempt by a federal prisoner.
19:18300 people got killed because someone decided to smuggle 10 kilos of radioactive material into L.A.
19:24And somebody else decided to steal it.
19:26Ted Sherman.
19:27He didn't steal that stuff for his rock collection.
19:29He intended to sell it to someone and I have a pretty good idea who that someone is.
19:33Where are you going?
19:34Wooster and La Brea, Rathbone Imports.
19:36Tell Steve to meet me there if he's interested.
19:42Look, I've got an attorney who would say that this is harassment.
19:46Nobody's harassing you, Rathbone.
19:49We're just asking for information from a man who's, let's say, well-versed in international commerce.
19:57That would constitute harassment.
20:00Let me suggest something here.
20:01No!
20:02You let me.
20:04Why don't you two get the hell out of my office?
20:08Suppose someone wanted to unload some stolen radioactive material, say, through a middleman,
20:13who had contacts with arms dealers all over the world.
20:16Now, you've heard of that kind of thing in your line of work?
20:19Yeah, you hear rumors, so?
20:21Well, wouldn't it be your duty as a citizen then to tell the authorities about these rumors?
20:28I'm trying to run a business here.
20:30If you're looking to buy somebody brought down an airliner just to get their hands on a shipment of black
20:33market fuel rods,
20:34and since you're the only fence that can move that stuff, you're gonna help us find them.
20:40This conversation is over.
20:45We've done what I say we've done!
20:47Wait!
20:48Get up!
20:49That's enough!
20:50I said that's enough.
20:57Terrific.
21:12What are the damages?
21:14Well, a few stitches here and there, a sprain wrist, a lot of bruises, but nothing that won't heal.
21:23They're yours?
21:26You stole this from my desk!
21:28I made a probable cause search of your desk, and your storage room.
21:32Fascinating stuff you've got in there.
21:35You want me to tell you what I found, or would you rather I tell you how it's gonna go
21:37from here?
21:40I'm listening.
21:42Whoever stole those fuel rods is gonna contact you sooner or later looking for a buyer.
21:46When they do, you're gonna play along.
21:49We'll triangulate the signal and get a fix on them.
21:51How's that sound?
21:54Well, I'm finished. Whatever I do.
21:56We all make sacrifices.
21:58All right.
22:00I want immunity from the stuff you found in my storeroom.
22:04If you cooperate. Completely.
22:11You know, I want to thank you.
22:14You did a beautiful job of showing me how you keep your emotions from interfering with your work.
22:19You have a wonderful way with patients.
22:21Oh, and you have a wonderful way with your suspects.
22:23Come on, Amanda. It's my job.
22:24Sometimes I have to lean on people.
22:27Do you really think I could have gotten Rathbone's cooperation by saying please?
22:31And what did you get by pushing the man through plate glass doors except for nine stitches?
22:35See, Steve calmly walked through the man's storage area and he got all the leverage that he needed.
22:40So which one of you did his job?
22:42And which one of you lost control?
22:49Wagoner.
22:50You're not gonna believe who our new friend's talking to right now.
22:53Better get in here.
22:55Yeah, well, I'm not sure I want to get involved.
22:58There's too many people looking for this stuff. And for you.
23:01What do you mean?
23:03I mean 300 dead people is bad for business.
23:07I never wanted those people to die. It just all went wrong.
23:11Yeah.
23:12Just give me 10 cents on the dollar. You will make a fortune.
23:16All right. Well, I need some time to confer with my associates.
23:18Where can I get back to you?
23:20I'll contact you. Let's talk in two hours.
23:28I'm satisfied.
23:30We got a trace.
23:39Sherman's gonna pack your Atlantic warehouse out in Vernon. I'm gonna pick him up.
23:43This is still my case.
23:44We really need to get into this again.
23:48I just want to come along for the ride.
23:52You can drive.
24:03You can glciari.
24:04Elsa.
24:04Uh-huh.
24:29I have Martin ataikvin.
24:30I'm happy.
24:30We have opened in Vernon in Phoenix and Monty.
24:30We do set it up to your manufacturer's office.
24:30We do six or eight hours.
24:30We are сотруд.
24:31You're normal to make a peek!
24:31And look at your announcer's house.
25:15Wagner, over here.
25:32It was shot in both kneecaps.
25:37His left elbow, but not his right.
25:39That's probably when he handed over the fuel rods.
25:42Yeah.
25:43But to who?
25:53I just got word from D.C. Sherman was an Army Airborne.
25:56Which means he knew everything he needed to know about planes.
25:59Including how to jump out of them.
26:00But Sherman still screwed up and got himself killed.
26:02Yeah, probably by the original smuggler.
26:05I just wish we'd get a clue as to what they're going to do with those fuel rods.
26:07I'd settle for a clue as to who that smuggler is.
26:12You know, this picture.
26:13Pretty gruesome, huh?
26:15No.
26:15Yeah, it is, but there's something else.
26:17I just can't put my finger on it.
26:19Maybe you're wearing the wrong glasses.
26:21No, it's not the glasses.
26:23It's something I've seen just recently.
26:25A tied-up dead guy?
26:27No.
26:29The knot.
26:31That's a single kerrig bin.
26:32You don't see him very often.
26:34And I saw a decorative variation of that not too long ago on Diane Trent's shoulder bag.
26:39Oh, that poor woman who lost her husband on the plane.
26:42Yeah.
26:43All right, follow this for a moment.
26:44Suppose you're Diane Trent and you get your husband to smuggle some radioactive material on a commercial airline.
26:50But the plane crashes and he dies.
26:52Yeah, but the fuel rods are pretty solid, so the shipment is still intact.
26:56You want it back, so what do you do?
26:58Get yourself a pointed spokesperson for the grieving families.
27:01So, you can ask a lot of questions and stay close to the investigation.
27:05And if that's not good enough, you talk the families into maybe asking for special favor.
27:10The wreath ceremony.
27:11An excuse to get close to the crash site.
27:14And there, Diane finds that neither that nor the hangar's been sealed off.
27:18There's no radioactivity anywhere.
27:19Because someone stole her shipment in mid-flight.
27:23Smart lady.
27:24Smart enough to sift through the likely suspects and zero in on Ted Sherman.
27:28Uh, she also ransacked his apartment and tracked them back to the warehouse.
27:32You know, she went to a lot of trouble and took a lot of risk to get those fuel rods.
27:36The big question is, why?
27:39I suggest we go ask her.
27:43I assume you put out the usual APBs, you've alerted bus terminals, the airports, everything?
27:47Still no sign of Diane Trent.
27:49This is not going to be easy.
27:52You check this, Wagley?
27:54Nothing, but be my guest.
27:59Mrs. Trent, I'm Marilyn Kale here with KLMV News.
28:02I'd really love an on-air interview.
28:04I know it.
28:05Hey, Diane, it's Frank down at the kennel.
28:07We finished grooming your golden retriever, so why don't you come pick them up?
28:10Be Mrs. U.
28:13Diane, dear, this is Bernice at the office.
28:16We all understand you're not coming in this morning, but...
28:20Have you contacted these people?
28:22Yeah, uh, Marilyn Kale never heard from her.
28:24Frank didn't leave a number, and the people at the law office where she worked have no idea what's going
28:28on.
28:29And neither do we.
28:30There is nothing here to work with.
28:32No letters, no address book.
28:33All we have are more questions.
28:35Yeah, like, what is your father doing?
28:42Dad?
28:44We, uh, missed something?
28:46I don't get it.
28:47Get what?
28:49What?
28:49You had a dog.
28:51Look around in here, tell me what you see.
28:53Or rather, what you don't see.
28:57No water dish.
28:59No hair.
29:01No chew toys.
29:02No sign of a dog, period.
29:05Yeah.
29:06There's not a speck of kibble in this kitchen.
29:08Well, maybe the call from Frank down at the kennel was a mistake.
29:12Or maybe it could have been a coded message.
29:15Either way, I think we'd better get in touch with this Frank, have a talk with him.
29:17Tell me, Sloan, how fast can LAPD get a copy of Diane Trent's phone records?
29:22Faster than you can save Frank.
29:40You got a line-up call ready?
29:42Good work, Steve.
29:43Who is he?
29:44Frank turns out to be Frank Hall.
29:46Ex-con, three-time loser.
29:48Tracked him out to a house in Newhall.
29:50Sheriff's in position.
29:51We're ready.
29:52Dad, gotta go.
29:52Okay, listen, be careful.
29:57Let's go.
29:58Steve asked you to get down.
30:00Just do it.
30:19Get down.
30:32He's in body, aren't you?
30:45He's down.
30:48Move in.
30:51Watch it.
30:56Paul.
30:58Bugshot doesn't do him justice.
31:00Secure the house.
31:01We'll watch your backs.
31:01You may have a roommate.
31:04Okay, who's the hero?
31:06I shot him with us, if you're asking.
31:08You killed the one person that could have led us to Diane Trent.
31:11All had enough firepower to kill the whole team, Amanda.
31:13He had to be taken down.
31:16I'm glad to see we share a strong sense of mutual trust and respect.
31:28It looks like Hall was playing pen pal with every gun-happy militia nut between here and Michigan.
31:33Destroy America to save a highway to Armageddon, this stuff makes the Turner Diaries look like Little House on the
31:40Prairie.
31:41I found packed bags in Hall's bedroom, and this.
31:46It's a one-way flight to Sydney this afternoon.
31:48He couldn't have known that we were on to him, and why was he in such a rush to leave
31:51town?
31:51We may have the answer to that right here.
31:55This is a first.
31:57It's a homemade glove box, a damn good one.
31:59It's for handling and processing radioactive material.
32:03I can think of only one reason Hall would need something like this.
32:06To build a nuclear bomb.
32:08Well, how big would it be?
32:11Does it matter?
32:19The L.A. Bureau had enough manpower, I wouldn't waste my time calling.
32:23I need the best we've got from every bureau in the time zone, and I need them now.
32:28I only want volunteers for the job.
32:31Make sure they're completely briefed on the situation.
32:34And try to get agents without families.
32:38Yeah.
32:40So it is real.
32:42We have to act as if it is.
32:45Ron, I came by to apologize.
32:47For what?
32:48Well, for thinking that you killed Frank Hall deliberately.
32:50I did.
32:51Well, I know.
32:52What I'm trying to say was that I acted badly.
32:54I know that I was unreasonable.
32:57Nah, you won't.
32:57Don't tell me.
32:58I know when I'm being unreasonable, and I was unreasonable.
33:02And I would like to apologize, please.
33:06Well, the way I've been behaving lately, I'm not surprised you thought I was out of control.
33:12Again.
33:13But you weren't.
33:17I do listen when you tell me I'm being a jerk.
33:20Besides, this has gotten a lot more serious than the Russian Mafia or a simple airplane crash.
33:25I know.
33:27When I think about it, it terrifies me.
33:30A suitcase bomb made with technology available to Frank Hall might be capable of leveling an area of three square
33:37miles.
33:37Three square miles?
33:38So if the bomb is detonated in downtown Los Angeles...
33:41Well, there won't be any more downtown Los Angeles.
33:43It'll vaporize it along with everyone who's lucky enough to be there.
33:46You have an intriguing notion of luck.
33:48Well, at least they won't be there to see what comes next.
33:51Because there'll be a firestorm that will level everything between Pasadena and the ocean.
33:55And this city is not set up to handle a catastrophe like that.
33:59No city is.
34:00Even the best emergency plans, the only good they can do is make people feel better.
34:07Ron, this bomb may go off without any warning.
34:11And if we did survive the blast, what do you think life would be like after?
34:19We'll find her, Amanda.
34:22We have to find her.
34:26We checked the glove box and we found high levels of radiation.
34:30Hall definitely made a bomb.
34:31And delivered it.
34:32And probably to Diane Trent.
34:34Steve and Ron are checking out Hall's associates, but still nothing.
34:38You know, Mark, I have probably broken about a thousand rules today, and I just do not care.
34:43I called Colin.
34:44I told him to take CJ out of town.
34:45I actually had a state.
34:47Did you ask why?
34:48No, he heard rumblings on the base, and, you know, the military is on full alert.
34:52Anyway, he did exactly what I asked him to do, and they should be in Santa Fe, you know, before
34:56anything happens.
34:57I think you did the right thing.
34:58Wish I could do the same for Steve.
35:01Where'd this come from?
35:02Got that off of Frank Hall's mantle.
35:04Now, that looks like him, but this photograph has to be at least 20 years old.
35:08Where was this taken?
35:09Oh, anywhere California.
35:10Well, we need more than that.
35:12Well, the car's mid-60s.
35:14Yeah, didn't help much.
35:16Wait a second.
35:17The license tag says 77.
35:20This little girl here, did Hall have a daughter?
35:22There's no record that he was ever married.
35:25This other guy looks kind of familiar, too.
35:33Look at the ropes on those packs there.
35:35Let's see.
35:38Well, that's not what you might call it, not.
35:40A carrick band is the same knot Ted Sherman was tied up with.
35:43And the same knot that was on Diane Trent's shoulder bag.
35:46That little girl, Diane Trent.
35:53Well, you got some good news?
35:55Well, it's news, at least.
35:56Wagner's people in D.C. identified the other man in a photo.
35:59Oh.
36:01Carl Carlstrom?
36:02Mm-hmm.
36:03Had a family like Manson's, only a lot better armed.
36:05Most of them died in a shootout with the LAPD.
36:08The only survivor was Carlstrom's daughter.
36:11His name's Diane.
36:17Steve, look at the date of the shootout.
36:20Tomorrow's the 20th anniversary.
36:22Yeah, 10 a.m. to be exact.
36:25You better call Wagner.
36:27It's meant like you better call the governor.
36:29If we don't find Diane Trent in seven hours,
36:31we've got an apocalypse on our hands.
36:52We've got an apocalypse on our hands.
37:22full of city, state, and federal officials,
37:24and nobody knows what to do.
37:26Well, it sounds like you're doing something.
37:27Can we go someplace where we don't have to shout?
37:29Well, there's an interrogation of the men's room.
37:32What are you doing?
37:34Officially, we're looking for a gas leak.
37:36Gas leak? That's the cover story?
37:37Not just any gas leak.
37:39A breakdown in the entire system.
37:40That way, whatever part of the city we search for, Diane Trent,
37:43we can shut down the streets without telling anybody
37:45what we're really looking for.
37:46What about an evacuation?
37:47How? We'd go public with this now, we'd create a panic.
37:50Everybody'd head for the nearest on-ramp,
37:52and the freeways would be totally jammed.
37:53We couldn't coordinate our search parties.
37:55We found anything.
37:56The first place we checked is where the Carlstrom family
37:58shot it out with the LAPD.
38:00Which is now under the Westside Mall.
38:02Well, she still might go there.
38:04We've cordoned off the whole area, three blocks square.
38:06The SWAT team's doing it door-to-door.
38:08Haven't found any sign of her yet.
38:09Well, she could go to other places to make a statement.
38:11And we're searching all of them.
38:12Every police station, the federal building,
38:14every place her father worked.
38:16Even the cemetery where he's buried.
38:17We've got the manpower and the resources.
38:19We're bound to find her.
38:20In less than six hours?
38:25We'd better get moving if we're gonna have any chance at all.
38:38Less than an hour to go, and the police haven't found a thing.
38:40Well, this is a pretty big town.
38:42She could be anywhere with that bomb.
38:43I don't think she's just anywhere, Jesse.
38:44She wants to make sure her revenge is unforgettable.
38:47I'd say that blowing up half of L.A. is pretty unforgettable.
38:50Well, she'll pick someplace with political significance
38:51so that everybody will know exactly why she's doing it.
38:54Where's that Kelsen massacre filing?
38:57The officer in charge of the SWAT team that day was David Bryant.
39:00He became police chief shortly after that.
39:02Made his career for him.
39:03Well, maybe she's going after him.
39:05No, no, he's been dead for ten years.
39:08But that's the connection.
39:10I know where she is.
39:12We've got 50 minutes.
39:30I ran into Diana at the hospital the other day.
39:33She was very, very upset.
39:34I told her she'd have to go somewhere peaceful and sort things out.
39:37She said she was coming here?
39:38Well, she said her favorite park near the ocean where she could see the boats.
39:41Well, that could be a dozen places.
39:42Why this one?
39:43Well, when Chief Bryant died, they dedicated this park in his name.
39:47So then this place is a reminder of what happened to her father,
39:50but it's also a tribute to the man in the city that killed him.
39:52I don't know. That's really reaching.
39:54Well, that's all we got, Jesse.
39:56You know, it's going to take time to search a park this site.
39:58We haven't got time.
39:59Well, we've got to split up.
40:00Yeah. Listen, be careful, you two. This is a dangerous woman.
40:02Well, with a nuclear bomb under her arm, I'd say she's a little more than dangerous.
40:06Good luck.
40:14Hey, don't do it.
40:18I mean, don't eat your lunch too fast.
40:20It could...
40:20Bye.
40:28Come on.
40:30Over there.
40:42Leanne?
40:46I don't know how you found me.
40:50It's nice that you're here.
40:52Nice?
40:53Yes.
40:54We'll have shared something, you and I.
40:57Joining my father.
40:59Just a minute.
41:06The man and your dad, they're in the line of fire.
41:11More people should know about him.
41:13More people should know about him.
41:14Diane, nobody's going to know anything if you go up the whole city.
41:16They'll know about his hatred for all things impure, and they'll feel my hatred for them at the second of
41:22their death, and that will be sufficient.
41:25Diane, look, you're seeing such a hollow victory.
41:28Surely there's some other way.
41:30Don't.
41:33Don't.
41:34Diane, trick!
41:37Diane, no!
41:47It's over.
41:56Pull the red wire.
41:58It's always a red wire.
41:59Yeah, see, there aren't any red wires.
42:01Oh, whack.
42:03Whack.
42:14Oh, whack.
42:28Oh, my God.
42:51How are you feeling?
42:54You know, if I'd have known she wanted to shoot someone, I'd let you be the destruction.
42:58Hey, it was your investigation.
43:01Next time, it's your investigation.
43:02Yeah. Next time.
43:04You take it easy, okay?
43:06See you.
43:09Amanda.
43:20Oh, this is awkward.
43:23I feel like somebody ought to make a formal introduction.
43:27Ron Wagner, Amanda Bentley.
43:30I'm aware that you two spent the night together, but how much do you really know about each other?
43:36Not nearly enough.
43:39I could try to get a transfer to the L.A. Bureau.
43:42Ron, I don't think that either one of us is ready for that decision.
43:47I think we have too many things that are unresolved.
43:51Like dead partners.
43:53And dead marriages.
43:58Well, I'd say we could make this work.
44:00Except that I know for a fact that distance and relationships are a very, very bad mix.
44:07Oh, yeah.
44:10It's just that there's so much here.
44:14Well, maybe someday if we're lucky.
44:20Well, uh, we at least have dinner with me, Dr. Bentley, before I leave L.A.
44:26Once I get out of this gown.
44:28I would love to have dinner with you, Agent Wagner.
44:32And I believe I can help you out with this gown.
44:35I was hoping you'd offer.
44:44No more reading glasses.
44:47No more computer glasses.
44:49No more distance glasses.
44:51So then you're just gonna walk around in a fog all day?
44:54Nope.
44:56Blended trifocal, a three-in-one solution to your vision problems.
45:00One for reading, one for computers, one for distance.
45:04Great.
45:04Because you're gonna need to see this.
45:06What?
45:06Looks like the press bought that crazy cover story.
45:11All right, what does it say?
45:13City survives gas leak.
45:15Oh.
45:15Wow, you better get those glasses checked.
45:17These'll do just fine, thanks.
45:20All right, just sit in the calendar.
45:21All right, come here.
45:22All right, come here.
