00:00You taking shots at a bullet.
00:06Hey!
00:09All right, baby.
00:10I'm hot.
00:11It's Kelsey.
00:12I'm moving.
00:16It's Kelsey.
00:20They call him the Reaper,
00:23an elusive international sniper
00:25with at least nine known kills throughout Europe and Asia.
00:27Murder for hire, all high-profile targets.
00:30Now, sadly, this is his only known photo.
00:33But two days ago,
00:34agents working off of a tip from Interpol
00:36linking the Reaper to payments made from a Shell Corporation
00:39raided at a home in Malibu Canyon.
00:41Strip!
00:44Now!
00:45Now, the Reaper wasn't there,
00:47but his girlfriend was captured without incident.
00:50Zora Mattis.
00:52She's currently being held at Ventura County Jail
00:54for conspiracy to commit murder
00:56and awaiting her arraignment.
00:58She in the know or caught in the crossfire?
01:00Well, that's an unknown,
01:01but she's not just Arm Candy.
01:03She went to Stanford,
01:04works as a corporate translator.
01:06So she's got a lot to lose.
01:07Right.
01:07And I assume she said no to a deal.
01:10Yeah.
01:11And intercepted dark web communiques
01:13have led us to believe that the Reaper is here
01:14in Los Angeles to carry out his next hit.
01:17So there's a clock ticking,
01:18which is where you come in.
01:20Me?
01:21Simone,
01:22I want you to go undercover as an inmate.
01:24Get to know Zora,
01:25find out anything you can about the Reaper's true identity
01:27and his next target.
01:37Your new name is Cheryl Waters.
01:40Cheryl?
01:41Couldn't I get something with a little more flair to it?
01:44Like Nefertiti or Jamaica.
01:47Your backstory and identification have already been created.
01:50You were booked for possession and assaulting an officer.
01:53Ooh, Cheryl is spicy.
01:55Can we just slow our roll here, Matt?
01:57Simone's a probationary agent.
01:59She's not ready for this.
02:00You're a terrible wingman.
02:02Simone taught in prisons back in DC as a volunteer,
02:05and she's good with people.
02:07See?
02:08Zora may be our only key to catching the Reaper
02:10before he kills again.
02:11If anyone even gets the hint that Simone is FBI,
02:14she's dead.
02:15You're right.
02:16Which is why you are going to go undercover with her
02:18as a sheriff deputy to make sure that doesn't happen.
02:27Let's run through it again.
02:28Only the warden's going to know we're undercover.
02:30You can't trust the guards and definitely not the inmates.
02:33And I won't be able to watch your back every moment.
02:37Simone, I know you love a challenge,
02:39but you don't have to do this.
02:40Carter, I got this.
02:43Trust me.
02:45Lookie here, lookie here.
02:48Lookie here, lookie here.
02:49Lookie here, lookie here.
02:51Lookie here, lookie here.
02:52Lookie here, lookie here.
02:52Yeah, new me.
02:54Richie, Richie, Richie.
03:06What you read?
03:08My name is Cheryl.
03:10What's your name, girl?
03:11Nobody.
03:18Hey, boss.
03:19The Evidence Response Team dropped off everything
03:21from the Reaper's Malibu rental.
03:23It'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
03:29to finish the job considering this was left behind.
03:35Well, that is a beaut.
03:387.62 RPR, 5-25 scope shooting a hand-loaded 220 green subsonic ground.
03:44It's all custom made.
03:45That's a good eye.
03:47I did a movie once, right?
03:48Where you played a sniper.
03:49Shot through the heart.
03:50It was a romantic comedy.
03:52It was really kind of sweet, actually.
03:54Anyway, I spent two weeks training with the best in the business.
03:57It's how I ice firearms at Quantico.
03:59Well, the barrel on this one was made with a stainless 17.4 PH alloy.
04:02There are only a handful of gunsmiths in the world who are skilled enough to craft one.
04:06And since the Reaper lost his weapon, he's going to need to find someone local to replace it and quick.
04:11Any names come to mind?
04:12Yeah, a guy by the name of Dave Barber.
04:15Whoa, whoa.
04:17Boomstick Barber?
04:18That's my guy.
04:18That's the guy who trained me.
04:19He's an armorer.
04:21He supplies firearms to actors on movie sets.
04:24Well, maybe actors aren't the only people he supplies to.
04:26The Reaper needs to replace his weapon, so go find out if Boomstick was commissioned to make him one.
04:30Let's go.
04:38Yeah, you got my smokes?
04:40I don't have discretionary yet.
04:42Oh, all right.
04:44Well, maybe I just take these as a deposit.
04:46Hey, leave her alone.
04:50Really?
04:52You sure this the hell you want to die on, new girl?
04:57I'm going to put your ass in the infirmary with pieces missing.
05:02Give me those.
05:03Walk!
05:07I don't see you.
05:14Here you go.
05:15I didn't ask you to do that.
05:17So I'm not all of a sudden your jailhouse bitch, okay?
05:20Whoa.
05:21Shawty, you ain't even my type, all right?
05:24It's just that nobody survives in here alone.
05:28So I wanted to make a deal.
05:30I watch your back, you watch mine.
05:36What?
05:39Hey, new guy.
05:40Take stink duty.
05:42Plumbing's down in this wing.
05:43Walk the inmates to the bathroom down the hall.
05:45For how long?
05:46Oh, hell yeah.
05:47I gots to go.
05:48Hey.
05:50I know you.
05:52Move, inmate.
05:57You ain't no Officer Jenkins.
06:00All those nights you sat working undercover in my club,
06:03eyeing all my girls, watching them grind.
06:06You Carter Hope, FBI, the man who ruined my life.
06:10You ruined your own life, Jasmine, getting in business with organized crime.
06:12I did my time.
06:13I'm only up and up now, baby.
06:15Then why are you back inside?
06:16Because when you an ex-con, any misdemeanor dust-up lands you right back behind bars.
06:20Judge saw an ex-con and set my bail at $200,000.
06:23$200,000 for assault?
06:25No way I can pay that.
06:26Now I'm trapped here waiting for trial.
06:29Or I was until Christmas came early.
06:34You gonna get me out of here.
06:35How am I supposed to do that?
06:36Figure it out.
06:37Or I'm gonna tell everybody up in here you an undercover fan.
06:39I'll throw you in solitary, have you transferred out.
06:41Not before I can yell out to anyone who can hear me that you a G-man.
06:44Word spreads quick around here.
06:48I'll see what I can do.
06:49See to it fast.
06:51I'm really bad at keeping secrets.
06:55So where's this boomer guy?
06:58Boomstick.
06:59Right now he's working on the set of Hot Suspects.
07:02Am I supposed to know what that is?
07:05It's a wildly popular TV show.
07:10Hello.
07:11This is Officer Chen from the LAPD.
07:13We met a few weeks ago.
07:15Hey, Lucy.
07:17You remember me?
07:18Of course I remember you.
07:19Yeah.
07:20You're my hero.
07:21Living proof you can come out of the rookie years unscathed.
07:24No.
07:25I'm super scathed, but I'm still standing.
07:28Look, I don't mean to bother you, but we got a call about an attempted break-in at your storage
07:32unit.
07:32And when we showed up to arrest them, the suspect said to call you.
07:37Miles Buttkiss?
07:38Do you know him?
07:39Yeah.
07:40You could say that.
07:41He's my dad.
07:42Oh.
07:44I'm sorry.
07:45We have him in holding.
07:46Okay.
07:47We're in the middle of something right now, but we can...
07:50Can I come there and grab him after this?
07:52Is that okay?
07:53Yeah, sure thing.
07:54All right.
07:59So your real name is Brendan Buttkiss?
08:06That was your takeaway?
08:10Hey.
08:11Boomstick.
08:12There he is.
08:13Hey.
08:14Bring it in, boy.
08:16Boomstick.
08:17Boom.
08:17There he is.
08:18How you doing?
08:19Good.
08:20Good.
08:20Oh, this is my boss, Special Agent Laura Stenson.
08:22Hi.
08:23Actually, we need your help with something.
08:26Here.
08:26Have a look at this.
08:287.62 RPR.
08:30Custom job.
08:31Looks 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 precision rifle just like that.
08:45Well, 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 are telling you he is planning to commit a crime.
08:56So unless you want to be charged as an accessory, you need to tell us everything about this customer,
09:01starting with when you're supposed to turn up the weapon.
09:08He just did.
09:09Stay right there.
09:10Stay right there.
09:10Sir, I think we have eyes on the Reaper.
09:13Hollywood and Gower.
09:15Hey!
09:16Oh, he made us!
09:17Hey!
09:17FBI!
09:52Oh my God!
09:58Oh my God!
09:59Oh my God!
10:01Oh my God!
10:01But we have a few questions in the當 Brorezee.
10:02Oh my God!
10:02Yeah, Papa!
10:07You could control him.
10:11Wait?
10:11Oh my God!
10:12Yeah, Abona!
10:12Oh, there's only good!
10:13Joniskie!
10:14Oh my God!
10:15Oh my God!
10:16Isn't that good?
10:27I don't know.
11:11I don't want to talk about it.
11:24I don't want to talk about it.
11:42I don't want to talk about it.
11:43It's registered to a dummy corp.
11:44It's being processed as we speak.
11:46Hopefully, the GPS gives us something.
11:48OK.
11:48We'll take whatever we can get.
11:49Are you guys on your way back to the ranch?
11:51Yeah, almost.
11:51We have to stop by Midwilshire for a, uh, just a small matter.
11:57Make it quick.
11:58Yeah.
12:01Hey, nobody.
12:05Sorum.
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.
12:16I figured you didn't help me out of the goodness of your own heart.
12:19Look, I see you.
12:21Salon cut, manicured, nose in the book.
12:25You smart, got money.
12:27A lawyer?
12:29Because I could use one.
12:31What'd you do?
12:31Trusted the wrong person.
12:33My girl.
12:35I thought she was on an up and up.
12:37Said she worked for this courier service.
12:38Asked me to drop a package.
12:40Next thing I know, I'm delivering a kilo of cocaine to an undercover narc.
12:45Damn, she sold you out.
12:46I'm still in love.
12:48What up?
12:49That's crazy, right?
12:51I know the feeling.
12:52You do?
12:53Damn, why do the troublemakers always gotta be so sexy?
12:57I don't know.
12:59It's the Italian accent that doomed me.
13:01Oh, yeah?
13:02Love me an accent.
13:04Where you meet him at?
13:06I mean, in town or?
13:07Wait, better yet.
13:08He got a sister.
13:10We met in Milan.
13:11Mm.
13:12I felt hard.
13:15Followed him back to L.A. and look where it got me.
13:18They offered me a deal to turn on my girl, but I just couldn't do it.
13:22She's gonna let you take the fall?
13:24I don't know, because I'm trying to get a hold of her, but we just talking.
13:27I don't care, inmate.
13:28Come on.
13:29Okay.
13:32What the hell is wrong with you, Carter?
13:34I was just starting to connect with her.
13:36I'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.
13:42There was no time to background everybody.
13:44She's threatening to talk, so I'm pulling the plug.
13:45No, you're not.
13:46Excuse me?
13:47Zora's a tough nut, but she's starting to crack.
13:50She's telling me stuff about the Reaper, that he's Italian.
13:53They met him alone.
13:54She's in love with him.
13:56I am so close.
13:57Don't fool yourself.
13:58Ops like this normally take weeks to form a bond.
14:00And I know you're the queen of charm, but if you push too far too fast, she'll see through it.
14:04Carter, I don't need her life story, okay?
14:07I just need enough clues to 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.
14:21I didn't even do nothing.
14:24So, your real name is Brendan Butkus?
14:26I know, right?
14:27There he comes.
14:29Brace yourself.
14:30Hey, Dad.
14:31Hey, kiddo, man.
14:32You're looking sharp, as always.
14:34Oh, there's the house.
14:35Yeah.
14:36All right.
14:37Miles Butkus.
14:38Oh, hi.
14:38I'm his old man.
14:39Yeah.
14:39And you must be his partner.
14:41A training agent.
14:42Laura Stenson.
14:42Well, I'm mortified that we're meeting like this.
14:45I just gotta do a pitch.
14:47And I know how busy Brendan is.
14:49You know, he's got an important job, doing important things.
14:51So you figured you'd just break into my storage locker and grab some vampire cop swag to sell?
14:55Well, you weren't used to them.
14:59Why do you need the money?
15:02I didn't want to tell you like this.
15:04I'm sick.
15:06Lymphoma.
15:07Doctor says it's pretty bad.
15:09Right.
15:09The chemo is very expensive, so I just needed to pay for it.
15:14Mm-hmm.
15:15I know.
15:16It was stupid.
15:17Sir, I'm so sorry to hear about your health challenges, but, you know, breaking and entering
15:22is a serious crime.
15:24Mm-hmm.
15:25Brendan and I have always shared everything.
15:28I promise, I had no ill intent.
15:31Could we just...
15:32Yeah.
15:34Hey.
15:36Would you like me to avoid this arrest?
15:38If you could, I'm really sorry.
15:41I think this is all just a big misunderstanding.
15:43He should have been on the rental agreement.
15:44And again, I'm really sorry for putting you through all this.
15:47Is that okay?
15:48Mm-hmm.
15:48Yeah?
15:49Okay, great.
15:51All right, where am I taking you?
15:53Oh, no.
15:54You know, I hate to be cold-hearted here, but our case can't wait for a carpool.
15:58Oh, I can take him home.
16:00Oh, I owe you.
16:01Thank you so much.
16:02No, no, you don't owe me.
16:03Actually, I wouldn't be mad if you signed a vampire cop t-shirt from my...
16:08roommate.
16:09Oh, sure.
16:11Where would you like me to sign?
16:12Okay, so really make a cross of chess, but just don't get any of it on your face.
16:15Huh.
16:38Hey, sorry about that out there.
16:41The car that's just been riding me ever since I got here.
16:44I was able to sweet-talk him into some extra dessert, though.
16:47Don't get too excited.
16:49The food here is a hate crime.
16:50No doubt.
16:52Although, you used to being all fancy and idly and everything.
16:57Actually, there's some great restaurants in L.A.
16:59You got one you love, though, on the romantic side, in case I get my life straightened out.
17:05My boyfriend took me to a great place downtown last week.
17:08Talk to me.
17:09Six-cris tasting menu up on our rooftop overlooking Walt Disney Concert Hall was magic.
17:15And cheap as hell, right?
17:16Definitely.
17:18Good looking out.
17:38You know your dad is lying about the cancer scene.
17:44Yeah, I do.
17:47It's how he's always been.
17:49You know, outlandish stories to get money, sympathy, leverage.
17:53It's his superpower.
17:55Well, there's a lot to unpack there.
17:57Don't analyze me, okay?
17:58Please.
18:00It's just this dance we do.
18:04My mom ran out on me when I was a kid.
18:07He stayed.
18:08He's the only parent I've got.
18:10I hear you.
18:11But I just...
18:12Oh.
18:13Yep, we're almost back, sir.
18:15Well, the GPS data from the Reaper's rental car shows one stop before picking up his new rifle,
18:19a Bitcoin ATM in West Hollywood.
18:22...to get cash for the rifle.
18:23You want to go to de-anonymizing cryptocurrency?
18:25It's the best of my academy class.
18:27It's all a matter of whether we can get access to the digital wallet the Reaper used to withdraw cash
18:31from the ATM.
18:32Then I can decrypt the wallet of origin by searching the blockchain, yada, yada, yada.
18:36We'll find out who paid the Reaper to do the hit.
18:38So can you handle it FOA, or do I need to get an egghead from the cyber squad?
18:41Give me a shot, boss.
18:43I won't let you down.
18:44So get your ass back here.
18:45Lights and sirens.
18:46Yes, sir.
18:51Bathroom.
18:52You're up.
19:08Hey, we need to talk.
19:11Later.
19:12This can't wait, and I'm feeling real talkative.
19:16Know what I'm saying?
19:18Stay right here.
19:23I told you I'm working on it.
19:24Not good enough.
19:25Now, I saw you working your little case with that newbie.
19:28You better help me out here, or I'm dry snitching both of you out.
19:31Threatening me is not going to help your situation.
19:33Then what is?
19:34My daughter is pissed at me because I'm me and won't take my calls.
19:38Look, I hear you, and I'm moving as fast as I can, but I will help you, okay?
19:43You have my word.
19:44Okay.
19:55What the hell are you doing?
20:01That's mine.
20:02I'm sorry.
20:04I'm all twisted up about my girl, and I want to talk to her, and I saw you had a
20:08line-out.
20:09Stay the hell away from my stuff.
20:11You better not say anything.
20:14Trouble in paradise?
20:16Just a little misunderstanding, ladies.
20:20Stay away from me.
20:22Walk!
20:28I was able to isolate the Reaper's crypto wallet from an ATM transaction.
20:32He received a down payment last week for $100,000 from a man named Mikhail Bugrov.
20:38Well, he's been on the FBI's radar for a few years, son of a Russian oligarch.
20:42He's been busy building his own empire.
20:44Sports teams, social media companies, high-end real estate.
20:47Word is he uses whatever shady tactic he needs to get his way, so there's a long list of people
20:53he could conceivably want killed.
20:54All right.
20:55Well, we're going to need to narrow that list down, and quick.
20:57If Simone and Carter can't get us a path to the Reaper, then the next best thing is to
21:01figure out who the Reaper is after, and this Bugrov guy is our best chance.
21:04Yeah, but how?
21:05Like, he's not going to cooperate with us.
21:07Let's see if we can rattle his cage, get him to slip up, do your profiler thing, see
21:11what you can find out.
21:12My profiler thing?
21:13Matt, it doesn't really work like that.
21:15I understand that, Laura, but there is a sniper loose in the city.
21:18That's all we got.
21:21Good luck.
21:22Mm-hmm.
21:23Hello in there.
21:24I'm bored.
21:26But I look amazing.
21:30Thank you for coming in, Mr. Bugrov.
21:32Oh, this is my first time at FBI.
21:34Sleep building.
21:35How much you pay for this?
21:36Instead of real estate prices, why don't we talk about a crypto payment we tracked from
21:40your virtual wallet into the account of a prolific assassin?
21:43What exact are you accusing my client of?
21:44I believe the word assassin answers that question.
21:47Try to keep up.
21:48Now, there are a few obvious targets, like your brother, Vladlin, who you've been feuding
21:52with for a few years.
21:53We're leaving.
21:54No.
21:55This is enlightening.
21:56Tell me more.
21:57Okay.
21:58Well, if not your brother, then how about your former business partner, Josh Fisher?
22:01He's suing you, right?
22:03And then there's the nasty custody battle with your ex-wife, Daria.
22:06No, don't forget Malcolm Abbott.
22:10He reupholstered the seats on my G700.
22:12Did a shockingly bad job.
22:14The man deserves to suffer.
22:16Okay, 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.
22:22And in the long term?
22:23Give us the Reaper, or we will tear your life apart looking for him.
22:28That's it.
22:28We're leaving.
22:30You know, you might look pretty if you didn't dress like a boy.
22:34And you might be handsome if you didn't have your face.
22:38He sees this as a game.
22:40People are just pawns to play with.
22:42He wasn't fazed by any of our questions, but narcissistic sociopaths rarely are.
22:47So 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 Bougarov's communications.
22:53No judge is going to sign off on a blanket warrant.
22:55But it doesn't hurt to try.
22:58It's Carter.
23:01Tell me you got something off Azora's phone.
23:03She caught me.
23:05It's my fault I got distracted.
23:06Okay, one of the inmates knows I'm a fed.
23:08I'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 Azora now.
23:13Okay, I'll call the warden and get you two out of there.
23:15Carter, confiscate Azora's phone and bring it back for the techs to analyze.
23:18Before you go, Simone, maybe you can help us with something off of what you've gleaned from Azora.
23:22I'm building a profile for the Reaper.
23:24Now, he's an international assassin who's been undetectable for years.
23:27Then, a few months ago, he starts making mistakes.
23:30Gets sloppy.
23:31Want to know why?
23:31The easy answer is it started after he met Azora.
23:34Maybe he fell in love with her and they threw him off his game.
23:37That's what I said.
23:37No, I don't know.
23:38I mean, Azora is not a complete innocent in all of this.
23:40She was arrested in a house with a sniper rifle and stacks of money.
23:44She had to know who she was dating.
23:45What is it?
23:47Okay, I first thought Azora was love-struck 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, nothing to even trade
23:58for it.
23:59She must have jacked it off another inmate.
24:00Right, but we are talking about Miss Bookworm with the glasses.
24:04Come on, something's up.
24:06Neither Azora nor the Reaper are fitting their profiles.
24:09Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
24:10His shoes.
24:11What?
24:12The sniper spent countless hours lying in wait, mostly on their stomachs.
24:17They wear down the tops of all their shoes.
24:19Really?
24:20Brendan, you might have been in a movie, but I was in the Marines.
24:22Look at those.
24:24Yeah, they're pristine.
24:25No wear pattern.
24:26What about Zoras?
24:31The tops of the shoes are worn down.
24:34Zora's the Reaper.
24:36We're almost there.
24:46Hey!
24:47Oh!
25:04Deputies down, infirmary hallway, code 7 lockdown.
25:30Zora's accomplice picked her up outside the jail in this unmarked van.
25:32I put out a bolo.
25:34Yeah, kind of looks like the guy we chased down thinking he was the Reaper.
25:37That's her boyfriend.
25:38Okay, I'm good at knowing when someone is BSing me, and everything Zora told me about her man is true.
25:44Including the fact that it's his fault that she was in jail because he makes mistakes, trips her up.
25:48She knows he's bad for business, but she can't give him up.
25:52She loves him too much.
25:53Oh, she told me about a restaurant he took her to last week.
25:57Did she give you a name?
25:58No, but she said it had a six-course tasting menu with a rooftop view of the Walt Disney Concert
26:05Hall.
26:05That's Futamoto's best tuna cigar in town.
26:07I'm sorry, tuna what now?
26:08Well, it's worth a shot.
26:09Let's scrub surveillance footage from last week.
26:12Get some coffee, people.
26:13It's gonna be a long night.
26:18Hey, Daddy.
26:20Ooh, hey, there you are.
26:21Look, I was worried.
26:23I'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, and your girlfriend was all cozy with another woman.
26:35Turns out it's her ex-fiancée.
26:38Hold up.
26:40Dina was engaged?
26:42Not till last month, according to Ruth.
26:45I gotta go, Daddy.
26:48Here you are.
26:49Oh, thank you.
26:51Um, did your dad make it home okay?
26:55No news is good news with him.
26:59You know, Brendan, I know you asked me not to analyze you, but I just can't help it.
27:05Miles casts a huge shadow over your life, and I know he was there for you, and that does mean
27:10something, but I see the dynamic.
27:13You're the parent, to your parent, it shouldn't be that way.
27:18He gave up everything for me to be an actor, and...
27:21Did he?
27:23Maybe 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.
27:35I can't just cut him off.
27:36You can talk to him.
27:38Have an honest conversation, because 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, and I hate that she's locked up.
28:00But with her bell that high, I'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 when 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.
28:16Don't act like she's a saint.
28:17I know she's not.
28:19But she is your mother who raised you on her own.
28:21And she must have done something right, because you got a good head on your shoulders, a 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, I'm out on the street.
28:32Look, I brought you down here because I made some calls, and I got the bail reduced to $5,000.
28:39Why 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.
28:45She might have made some mistakes, but she doesn't deserve to lose everything over this.
28:48No one does.
28:49So, will you bail her out?
28:52Yes.
28:53Great.
28:55Thanks.
28:56Of course.
28:57I'll show you up.
29:03Jasmine didn't have any leverage on you anymore.
29:07Most 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?
29:13Well, you're a better man than I, Carter.
29:16Yeah.
29:17I am.
29:20Do we need to talk?
29:21Look, my dad told me about your showcase last night.
29:25Mm-hmm.
29:26How's that ex-fiancee of yours?
29:28Oh, man.
29:30Cuddy spying on me now?
29:31No.
29:32Looking out for his baby girl.
29:33Now, I'm not mad.
29:35Really?
29:35Because you're sounding a little hot right now.
29:38Why am I learning about an ex-fiancee from my dad and not you?
29:41I wanted to introduce y'all at my show, but you canceled on me at the last minute like you
29:47always do.
29:48You wanted to introduce us for real?
29:51Yes.
29:51Damn, girl.
29:53I really like you.
29:54I'm trying to invite you into my life.
29:57I want this to be more.
30:00Look, you have every right to ask for that.
30:04It's just I am finally living my dream.
30:07And I've seen the toll that this job and the hours take on agents, their partners, their families.
30:17And I understand if you're not down for that.
30:24So this is the end of the role.
30:26Is that what you want?
30:28No.
30:29Our relationships are about timing.
30:33And I guess this just isn't ours.
30:38Hey.
30:40We found him.
30:42Surveillance footage from Foodamonos.
30:49We got a clear photo of Zora's boyfriend slash accomplice.
30:53Alexander Perry.
30:54He was caught on traffic cam footage going east on Olympic toward downtown.
30:58He could be heading to where Zora's planning her hit.
31:01Damn.
31:01Yeah.
31:02Suit up, guys.
31:03Move out.
31:03All right, let's do it.
31:11Five minutes until the target arrives.
31:15Hey, FBI!
31:17Freeze!
31:17You're under arrest.
31:18You're under arrest.
31:20Turn around.
31:26Talk to me.
31:27We got him in custody, but there's no sign of Zora.
31:29Okay, well, listen to this.
31:30The warrant came through and we just received Mikhail Bulgroff's emails.
31:34Bulgroff 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.
31:41His name is James Knox.
31:42Where's Knox now?
31:43He's leaving a board meeting at 9309 Elm.
31:46That's only a few blocks from here.
31:47We got in touch with him.
31:49He'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
31:57take off.
31:57Sir, I should go down there.
31:59No, no, no.
31:59You are here for a reason.
32:01You're the only one who knows Zora.
32:03I need you here at 30,000 feet helping me game plan, okay?
32:069309 Elm is half a mile north of here.
32:09You calculate windage and terrain.
32:13There.
32:13That building right there is already to have a perfect shot from one of those high floors or the roof.
32:18Right there.
32:19Let's move.
32:19I got him.
32:20Carter.
32:20Yeah.
32:21Does Alexander have a burner?
32:23I might have an idea on how to stall her.
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 hit woman, so neither of us was being honest.
32:56You weren't lying about one thing, though.
32:59Alexander, he is cute, girl.
33:01And I know you love him.
33:03So 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.
33:12We 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.
33:19So look for a broken window or up on the roof.
33:23Ninth floor.
33:23Second window down, north-facing side of the building.
33:26All right, copy.
33:26We're on our way.
33:30Face it, girl.
33:31We got you.
33:32No, you don't.
33:34Yes, we do.
33:35We know who you are, we know who your man is, and we know who hired the hit on James
33:39Knox.
33:42Who's James Knox?
33:46Knox is not the target.
33:47You need to get there fast.
33:49Copy.
33:51We got the payments from Bugrav's account to yours.
33:55Sweetie, nice try.
33:58Bugrav isn't the mastermind behind this operation.
34:02He's the target.
34:06Bugrav must have been going to the same meeting that Knox was.
34:09Keep her talking.
34:10Zora, you don't want to do this.
34:13I know real love when I see it.
34:16And girl, you got it bad.
34:17Takes one to know one.
34:19How's your girlfriend?
34:21We broke up.
34:23Sucks to be you.
34:24No, not at all.
34:26But I'll still do you a solid.
34:29Turn over your client list and help us take down the people who ordered the hits.
34:34And your man won't have to serve jail time.
34:36We'll even offer you a deal to extradite you to Italy so you can serve your time near him.
34:47Bravo.
34:48You are good.
34:50You almost had me convinced there for a second.
34:52It was fun talking to you, but I have a job to do and a big wide world to disappear
34:56into.
34:57Tell Alexander we'll always have Parco Simbione.
35:11Here.
35:13I hope you got it.
35:19Bye.
35:22Bye.
35:34Lee.
35:41Lee.
35:50Lee.
36:05Oh, my God.
36:24Oh, come here.
36:25Hey.
36:26We got her in custody.
36:29Oh.
36:32Yes!
36:35Turns out it was Daria, the estranged ex-wife,
36:38who paid the Reaper to turn Boogrof into pink mist.
36:41And she used his crypto account to pay for it.
36:43Yes.
36:44Damn. That is cold.
36:45You know, I'm not gonna lie, I was tempted to let Zora take the shot.
36:48Well, you did the right thing. Agents have her in custody.
36:50Now Zora's on her way back to County, Jill, under strict isolation this time.
36:54No more breakouts for the Reaper.
36:56It's a hell of a job, guys.
36:58I'd say this calls for a drink.
37:00I will not say no to that.
37:01Laura.
37:02Uh, who are they?
37:07Excuse 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.
37:18And it's all because of you, my hero.
37:22Mom, please.
37:23Oh, there it is.
37:24No, I just made a call.
37:26It was your daughter that came through.
37:27That's my baby girl.
37:29You kept my cover.
37:30So I kept my word.
37:31And in my life, that is rare.
37:32So I brought something to say thank you.
37:36I tried to took her out of it.
37:38VIP passes to my strip club.
37:40Drinks on me.
37:42Bring all your friends.
37:43Couldn't possibly accept it.
37:44Oh, no.
37:45Yes, you can.
37:46We will take it.
37:48But strip clubs are a fascinating bit of social anthropology.
37:51You said we could get a drink.
37:53You're looking tasty in that soup, G-Man.
37:56Mom!
37:57Okay.
37:58Thank you so much.
38:02Don't you miss it.
38:04The acting.
38:05The adulation.
38:07The money.
38:08Mm-hmm.
38:09Acting was your dream.
38:10This is mine.
38:11You begged me to get you into the industry.
38:13And you loved it.
38:15And can we just stop, please?
38:17Just stop with all the lying and the manipulation,
38:21the breaking and entering, the fake illnesses.
38:24It's just, it's gotta stop.
38:26But I really am sick.
38:27No, you're not.
38:29You're pathological.
38:32We can't keep going on like this.
38:34Like what?
38:35I gave up my career.
38:36I gave up everything to support you.
38:38And this is how you thank me.
38:40You didn't give up anything, okay?
38:42You didn't give up anything.
38:43You never latched on to anything of your own in the first place.
38:45Okay, I guess I'm a monster.
38:46Oh, stop playing the victim.
38:48You still have time to find your own thing.
38:51And you're gonna have to.
38:54I'm cutting you off.
38:55Until you get your stuff together.
38:58What?
38:58This.
38:59This right here.
39:01This is my dream.
39:03And I'm not gonna let you mess it up for me.
39:05Even if it means not having you in my life.
39:10I'm so sorry it made you feel like that.
39:14You're very stressed.
39:15You're obviously exhausted.
39:17I'm not mad.
39:18It's okay.
39:19It's okay.
39:19Okay.
39:20Get some rest.
39:20And I'll call you next week.
39:22Yeah.
39:22Okay.
39:23You didn't hear a word I just said, did you?
39:25I'm very proud of you, son.
39:26Yeah.
39:26Okay.
39:28Special Agent Stinson.
39:29Good to see you again.
39:30And I love your outfit.
39:32Thank you, Mr. Broadcast.
39:39You have the talk?
39:41Yeah.
39:43Think things are gonna change?
39:46No.
39:47No.
39:49Not yet.
39:51But thank you for the advice.
39:53I appreciate it.
39:54Well, you can also thank me for tonight's entertainment.
39:59Hm?
40:00Let's go.
40:01You deserve to blow off some steam.
40:09Mm-hmm.
40:14Daddy, listen.
40:15I'm not supposed to tell you this, but I was in jail for an assignment.
40:22The feds locked you up?
40:23Just for a day.
40:25It was crazy.
40:26I-I 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.
40:45We lost so much time.
40:48You only lose what you can't let go of.
40:52That's in the past.
40:53It's over.
40:56Hm?
40:57Hm.
41:02You expecting Miss Ruth?
41:04No.
41:07Hey.
41:08What's going on, B?
41:09Come here.
41:10Come on.
41:11Sorry you weren't answering your phone.
41:13Yeah.
41:15So, what you doing tonight?
41:17I got some VIP passes.
41:20Stroke card.
41:20Normally, I would be about that life, but tonight I'm wiped.
41:26Jail door number on you?
41:28Dina and I broke up.
41:30Oh, no.
41:32Oh, man.
41:33I'm so sorry.
41:34You-you want to talk about it?
41:36Brendan?
41:37Yeah.
41:38Have some pie.
41:39Homemade.
41:40Thank you, Cutty.
41:42Are you a fan of Sweet Potato?
41:43I most certainly am.
41:45Wait, you'll be-
41:46Stuck here.
41:48That is what we call a Cutty creation.
41:51It's like crack, but slightly more addicting.
41:56Give me that.
41:57What?
41:58You need to go on and go to the club.
42:00No.
42:01This is exactly what I want to be.
42:04Everything okay?
42:06It is now.
42:08Brendan?
42:09Mm-hmm?
42:09We have a saying in this household.
42:12Ain't nothing in the world can't be fixed with a little bit of love and a whole lot of pie.
42:17All right, girl.
42:18I'll eat to that.
42:20Hey.
42:20You-you-you.
42:21Let me see what this is all about.
42:23Oh.
42:24Oh.
42:24Oh, oh.
42:24There, there's nothing in the world.
42:25Oh, of course.
42:32Yeah.
