1
00:00:05,672 --> 00:00:08,041
Hey, sis.

2
00:00:08,108 --> 00:00:10,343
No, I'll be home soon.

3
00:00:10,410 --> 00:00:12,645
I was working.

4
00:00:12,712 --> 00:00:15,482
Okay, fine. I wasn't working.

5
00:00:15,548 --> 00:00:18,318
No, I'm not gonna tell you about it.

6
00:00:18,385 --> 00:00:21,020
Okay. Bye.

7
00:00:27,660 --> 00:00:31,064
Keep your mouth shut and do what I say.

8
00:00:31,131 --> 00:00:33,366
Please. I have money in my purse.

9
00:00:33,433 --> 00:00:34,567
Shh.

10
00:00:34,634 --> 00:00:36,569
There you go. Get in the car.

11
00:00:36,636 --> 00:00:39,305
Hey! Help! He's got a gun!

12
00:00:55,221 --> 00:00:57,590
I have your wine, sir. Ooh, nice.

13
00:01:01,127 --> 00:01:03,062
I can't believe we're really doing this.

14
00:01:03,129 --> 00:01:05,598
I mean, we've only been talking about it for, what, 10 months?

15
00:01:05,665 --> 00:01:07,300
I had to do my due diligence.

16
00:01:07,367 --> 00:01:10,236
I bet you did.

17
00:01:10,303 --> 00:01:13,273
Wait. Be honest.

18
00:01:13,339 --> 00:01:15,675
Did you run my name through one of your FBI databases?

19
00:01:15,742 --> 00:01:19,412
Oh, I am gonna have to plead the Fifth on that.

20
00:01:19,479 --> 00:01:21,181
Oh, my God.

21
00:01:21,247 --> 00:01:22,615
Cheers. Cheers.

22
00:01:22,682 --> 00:01:24,417
I'm very excited,

23
00:01:24,484 --> 00:01:26,152
but I'm also not opposed to the idea

24
00:01:26,219 --> 00:01:28,788
of one day maybe getting another apartment.

25
00:01:28,855 --> 00:01:30,390
A new one, some day.

26
00:01:30,457 --> 00:01:32,292
One that would be ours, you know?

27
00:01:32,358 --> 00:01:33,660
Your point?

28
00:01:33,726 --> 00:01:35,628
That I'm thrilled to be here with you,

29
00:01:35,695 --> 00:01:37,630
regardless of whose name is on the lease

30
00:01:37,697 --> 00:01:40,400
or...how many other men may have slept here.

31
00:01:40,467 --> 00:01:43,203
Uh-huh, yet you work for the most progressive senator

32
00:01:43,269 --> 00:01:44,437
in all of D.C. Hmm.

33
00:01:44,504 --> 00:01:46,105
Yeah, you're right. I'm lying.

34
00:01:46,172 --> 00:01:47,807
I'm a woke modern liberal

35
00:01:47,874 --> 00:01:49,576
who doesn't really care how many men slept here.

36
00:01:49,642 --> 00:01:50,777
Oh, God.

37
00:01:50,844 --> 00:01:52,712
But...

38
00:01:52,779 --> 00:01:55,849
I do care about us.

39
00:01:55,915 --> 00:01:57,750
A lot.

40
00:01:57,817 --> 00:01:59,652
And I just wanna be sure that this

41
00:01:59,719 --> 00:02:01,488
isn't just

42
00:02:01,554 --> 00:02:03,790
an experiment.

43
00:02:03,857 --> 00:02:05,425
It's not.

44
00:02:05,492 --> 00:02:08,461
I promise, okay?

45
00:02:08,527 --> 00:02:09,762
Okay.

46
00:02:19,405 --> 00:02:21,574
I'm sorry. No. It's okay.

47
00:02:21,641 --> 00:02:24,644
It's urgent. I gotta go.

48
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,648
What do we got? Two hours ago,

49
00:02:28,715 --> 00:02:30,783
a woman named Addie Ricard was abducted at gunpoint

50
00:02:30,850 --> 00:02:32,785
and thrown into the trunk of a car.

51
00:02:32,852 --> 00:02:36,189
We're still canvassing, but it's a quiet block.

52
00:02:36,256 --> 00:02:38,424
Not much to go on yet.

53
00:02:38,491 --> 00:02:41,160
Her phone and purse were found in the street.

54
00:02:41,227 --> 00:02:43,763
Addie Ricard. The political reporter?

55
00:02:43,830 --> 00:02:45,865
Do you know her? Not personally.

56
00:02:45,932 --> 00:02:48,268
But I've read her work. Okay. Any witnesses?

57
00:02:48,334 --> 00:02:51,871
Just one, name's Derek Morales.

58
00:02:51,938 --> 00:02:53,506
Mr. Morales?

59
00:02:53,573 --> 00:02:55,241
I'm Agent Bell. This is Agent Zidan.

60
00:02:55,308 --> 00:02:56,676
We heard that you saw the abduction.

61
00:02:56,743 --> 00:02:58,711
Can you tell us about it?

62
00:02:58,778 --> 00:03:00,346
It happened quick. The woman shouted,

63
00:03:00,413 --> 00:03:02,215
and then the prick shot at me.

64
00:03:02,282 --> 00:03:03,583
Before I knew it, he had her in the trunk

65
00:03:03,650 --> 00:03:05,218
and was driving away.

66
00:03:05,285 --> 00:03:07,420
Thank God his aim sucked. You know what I'm saying?

67
00:03:07,487 --> 00:03:08,922
What did this guy look like?

68
00:03:08,988 --> 00:03:10,623
Hard to tell.

69
00:03:10,690 --> 00:03:13,726
He was wearing a black mask, about, uh, six feet tall.

70
00:03:13,793 --> 00:03:16,362
I mean, they all look six feet, but...

71
00:03:16,429 --> 00:03:18,398
Oh, he held the gun in his left hand,

72
00:03:18,464 --> 00:03:20,633
if that helps.

73
00:03:20,700 --> 00:03:22,435
What about the car that he forced her into?

74
00:03:22,502 --> 00:03:24,337
It was a sedan. It was blue.

75
00:03:24,404 --> 00:03:26,806
The trunk was already open, so I couldn't see the emblem.

76
00:03:26,873 --> 00:03:28,741
I'm sorry. That's all I could tell you.

77
00:03:28,808 --> 00:03:30,410
No, no, no. You did good.

78
00:03:30,476 --> 00:03:32,211
If you think of anything else, please give us a call.

79
00:03:32,278 --> 00:03:34,247
Thank you.

80
00:03:34,314 --> 00:03:36,482
So gun, mask, trunk already popped.

81
00:03:36,549 --> 00:03:38,585
This sounds premeditated.

82
00:03:38,651 --> 00:03:40,353
Do you have any idea where she was headed?

83
00:03:40,420 --> 00:03:43,590
According to her license, she lives about a block away.

84
00:03:43,656 --> 00:03:45,625
It doesn't make any sense. Why would someone take her?

85
00:03:45,692 --> 00:03:48,428
What? Was it just random, or-- We're not sure,

86
00:03:48,494 --> 00:03:50,296
but we are doing everything we can to track her down,

87
00:03:50,363 --> 00:03:51,598
canvassing the neighborhood,

88
00:03:51,664 --> 00:03:52,832
looking at traffic cams.

89
00:03:52,899 --> 00:03:54,367
We do need to ask you some questions.

90
00:03:54,434 --> 00:03:55,668
The more we know about your sister,

91
00:03:55,735 --> 00:03:57,804
the better chance we have of finding her.

92
00:03:57,870 --> 00:03:59,472
When was the last time you spoke with her?

93
00:03:59,539 --> 00:04:01,708
A little before 10:00?

94
00:04:01,774 --> 00:04:03,443
She said she was on her way home.

95
00:04:03,509 --> 00:04:04,711
How did she sound?

96
00:04:04,777 --> 00:04:07,380
Normal. Happy.

97
00:04:07,447 --> 00:04:09,582
Okay. In regards to her work, her articles,

98
00:04:09,649 --> 00:04:11,284
are there any angry readers you're aware of?

99
00:04:11,351 --> 00:04:12,952
It's 2021.

100
00:04:13,019 --> 00:04:14,454
You wouldn't believe the hate she gets.

101
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,589
It's insane, but

102
00:04:16,656 --> 00:04:17,991
those are just random tweets.

103
00:04:18,057 --> 00:04:19,993
No one's ever made a real threat.

104
00:04:20,059 --> 00:04:22,462
Been anything unusual that's happened recently?

105
00:04:22,528 --> 00:04:23,863
Maybe an angry stalker,

106
00:04:23,930 --> 00:04:25,331
or a jealous boyfriend or girlfriend?

107
00:04:25,398 --> 00:04:27,767
No. Not at all.

108
00:04:27,834 --> 00:04:30,903
Addie for divorced three years ago, but it was amicable.

109
00:04:30,970 --> 00:04:33,973
Her ex lives in California. They're good friends.

110
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,875
Does she have anyone new in her life?

111
00:04:35,942 --> 00:04:37,510
Yes, she's seeing someone,

112
00:04:37,577 --> 00:04:39,679
but I don't know his name.

113
00:04:39,746 --> 00:04:41,314
Addie only mentioned him in passing.

114
00:04:41,381 --> 00:04:42,815
She didn't wanna talk about it yet.

115
00:04:42,882 --> 00:04:44,350
Was that weird to you

116
00:04:44,417 --> 00:04:46,052
that your sister didn't wanna talk about it?

117
00:04:46,119 --> 00:04:47,754
I mean, a little, but

118
00:04:47,820 --> 00:04:49,722
she's funny like that.

119
00:04:49,789 --> 00:04:51,658
Did she seem scared of him at all?

120
00:04:51,724 --> 00:04:54,894
No, no. She was excited.

121
00:04:54,961 --> 00:04:56,863
Like she was madly in love.

122
00:04:56,929 --> 00:04:58,031
What about the neighborhood?

123
00:04:58,097 --> 00:05:00,033
Have you noticed any strange cars parked?

124
00:05:00,099 --> 00:05:02,835
Maybe a blue one?

125
00:05:02,902 --> 00:05:05,071
Not a blue one, but

126
00:05:05,138 --> 00:05:07,707
two days ago, there was this guy in an SUV

127
00:05:07,774 --> 00:05:09,909
just watching our place.

128
00:05:09,976 --> 00:05:12,478
At the time, I just thought he was some kind of porch pirate,

129
00:05:12,545 --> 00:05:14,747
so I got up the courage to approach him,

130
00:05:14,814 --> 00:05:18,751
but as soon as I got close, he sped off.

131
00:05:18,818 --> 00:05:21,020
I would really love to have two agents stay with you

132
00:05:21,087 --> 00:05:22,789
in case a ransom call comes in.

133
00:05:22,855 --> 00:05:24,390
Is that okay?

134
00:05:24,457 --> 00:05:26,025
Sure.

135
00:05:26,092 --> 00:05:28,561
Please let me know as soon as you hear anything.

136
00:05:28,628 --> 00:05:30,963
Of course.

137
00:05:31,030 --> 00:05:32,699
Two hours ago, Pulitzer nominated

138
00:05:32,765 --> 00:05:34,901
"New York Times" journalist and frequent cable news guest,

139
00:05:34,967 --> 00:05:37,003
Addie Ricard, was abducted outside of her house

140
00:05:37,070 --> 00:05:38,604
in the West Village. The man who took her

141
00:05:38,671 --> 00:05:41,040
was armed, wore a mask to disguise his identity.

142
00:05:41,107 --> 00:05:43,342
Addie's phone and purse were untouched.

143
00:05:43,409 --> 00:05:46,012
It's unlikely this was simply a crime of opportunity.

144
00:05:46,079 --> 00:05:48,081
There's also a new mystery man in her life,

145
00:05:48,147 --> 00:05:49,916
someone she wasn't completely comfortable

146
00:05:49,982 --> 00:05:52,018
talking about just yet. Let's scrub her phone,

147
00:05:52,085 --> 00:05:53,886
see if we can identify exactly who that is.

148
00:05:53,953 --> 00:05:55,555
We should also pay special attention

149
00:05:55,621 --> 00:05:56,923
to her professional life.

150
00:05:56,989 --> 00:05:58,691
We're looking into what she's been working on.

151
00:05:58,758 --> 00:06:00,359
Maybe she was on the verge of something big,

152
00:06:00,426 --> 00:06:01,961
a controversial scoop. Thanks.

153
00:06:02,028 --> 00:06:03,629
I just got off the phone with "The Times."

154
00:06:03,696 --> 00:06:05,865
No recent threats. No ransom demands.

155
00:06:05,932 --> 00:06:08,401
All right. Okay, well, check with that cable news show

156
00:06:08,468 --> 00:06:10,703
she was always on, see if the network has been contacted

157
00:06:10,770 --> 00:06:11,971
or is aware of any threats.

158
00:06:12,038 --> 00:06:13,506
What did we learn from her cell phone?

159
00:06:13,573 --> 00:06:15,007
The last call she made was to her sister

160
00:06:15,074 --> 00:06:17,043
right before she was grabbed, but we can't read her texts.

161
00:06:17,110 --> 00:06:18,644
She has an encryption app on her phone.

162
00:06:18,711 --> 00:06:20,113
All right. We'll get the CART guys in here,

163
00:06:20,179 --> 00:06:21,848
see if they can crack it. Hey, Ian.

164
00:06:21,914 --> 00:06:23,082
Where are we on the suspicious SUV

165
00:06:23,149 --> 00:06:24,817
her sister saw parked in front of her house?

166
00:06:24,884 --> 00:06:27,086
Yeah, I just found a security cam from up the block.

167
00:06:27,153 --> 00:06:28,988
Okay. This is from two days ago.

168
00:06:29,055 --> 00:06:30,656
Just as her sister described.

169
00:06:30,723 --> 00:06:32,024
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Can you get a plate?

170
00:06:32,091 --> 00:06:33,593
It's a partial. Running it now.

171
00:06:33,659 --> 00:06:34,961
Okay.

172
00:06:35,027 --> 00:06:38,131
Vehicle belongs to Daniel Lavares, an ex-cop.

173
00:06:38,197 --> 00:06:39,832
Eyes up.

174
00:06:39,899 --> 00:06:41,868
Records show that he was kicked off the police force

175
00:06:41,934 --> 00:06:44,470
after a violent altercation left the suspect paralyzed.

176
00:06:44,537 --> 00:06:46,172
He also has several restraining orders taken out

177
00:06:46,239 --> 00:06:48,441
against him by ex-girlfriends.

178
00:06:48,508 --> 00:06:50,143
Let's find this guy! Now!

179
00:07:00,953 --> 00:07:02,522
Wait. Do you hear that?

180
00:07:28,147 --> 00:07:31,083
OA?

181
00:07:31,150 --> 00:07:33,853
OA?

182
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,221
Maggie, he tased me!

183
00:07:45,932 --> 00:07:47,166
What did you do with her, huh?

184
00:07:47,233 --> 00:07:49,001
What are you talking about? Addie Ricard.

185
00:07:49,068 --> 00:07:50,203
I didn't do nothing with her.

186
00:07:50,269 --> 00:07:51,737
Yeah, but you're staking out her place.

187
00:07:51,804 --> 00:07:53,472
What?

188
00:07:53,539 --> 00:07:55,174
She was taken last night, put in the trunk of a car.

189
00:07:55,241 --> 00:07:57,543
No, no, no, no, no. That's not me. That's not me.

190
00:07:57,610 --> 00:07:59,011
Oh, yeah? Then why'd you tase me, huh?

191
00:07:59,078 --> 00:08:01,080
I tased you 'cause you broke into my house!

192
00:08:01,147 --> 00:08:03,482
You could've been anybody. I was scared.

193
00:08:03,549 --> 00:08:05,151
What's your interest in Addie?

194
00:08:05,218 --> 00:08:06,586
Oh, come on.

195
00:08:06,652 --> 00:08:08,688
Start talking, okay?

196
00:08:08,754 --> 00:08:10,823
Or I'm gonna take you in for assaulting a federal officer.

197
00:08:10,890 --> 00:08:11,958
Do you understand that?

198
00:08:12,024 --> 00:08:13,826
Yeah. I understand.

199
00:08:13,893 --> 00:08:15,728
I've been working as a private detective.

200
00:08:15,795 --> 00:08:18,564
All right?

201
00:08:18,631 --> 00:08:21,234
Someone hired me to keep an eye on her.

202
00:08:21,300 --> 00:08:22,568
Find some dirt, so--

203
00:08:22,635 --> 00:08:24,136
Who? Come on--

204
00:08:24,203 --> 00:08:26,138
Who? AIM.

205
00:08:26,205 --> 00:08:29,208
They're some sort of media watchdog group.

206
00:08:29,275 --> 00:08:31,277
I don't know. Accountability in Media.

207
00:08:31,344 --> 00:08:32,578
We know. Yeah, yeah.

208
00:08:32,645 --> 00:08:34,614
So they think that, you know,

209
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,982
Addie's on the take, in bed with some politicians.

210
00:08:37,049 --> 00:08:39,284
They wanted proof, and...

211
00:08:39,352 --> 00:08:41,554
I got it for them.

212
00:08:41,621 --> 00:08:43,022
What do you mean you "got it for them"?

213
00:08:43,089 --> 00:08:44,857
Last night, right?

214
00:08:44,924 --> 00:08:47,126
I caught her-- I caught her meeting up

215
00:08:47,193 --> 00:08:49,562
with this bigtime political operative.

216
00:08:55,801 --> 00:08:57,637
What's up?

217
00:08:57,703 --> 00:08:59,605
You need to see this.

218
00:09:01,741 --> 00:09:04,076
That's Ethan with Addie Ricard.

219
00:09:04,143 --> 00:09:05,711
Last night.

220
00:09:23,729 --> 00:09:25,298
Lavares' alibi at the time of Addie's abduction

221
00:09:25,364 --> 00:09:26,866
checks out. He went drinking

222
00:09:26,933 --> 00:09:28,567
with some cop buddies after he took the pics.

223
00:09:28,634 --> 00:09:30,202
Okay. Anything else? Well, he described

224
00:09:30,269 --> 00:09:33,039
the interaction between Ethan and our victim as "heated."

225
00:09:33,105 --> 00:09:34,941
Said it looked like they were arguing.

226
00:09:35,007 --> 00:09:37,343
Well, Ethan's chief of staff to Senator Hoffman.

227
00:09:37,410 --> 00:09:39,845
They deal with hostile reporters all the time.

228
00:09:39,912 --> 00:09:41,047
Right. Of course.

229
00:09:41,113 --> 00:09:42,949
How long have you two been dating?

230
00:09:43,015 --> 00:09:45,151
Excuse me?

231
00:09:45,217 --> 00:09:46,819
Well,

232
00:09:46,886 --> 00:09:49,255
I mean, we're kind of in a tough spot here, right?

233
00:09:49,322 --> 00:09:51,657
Ethan was home at the time of the abduction.

234
00:09:51,724 --> 00:09:53,893
He is not involved, Jubal.

235
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,963
Yeah. Uh...

236
00:09:57,029 --> 00:09:59,198
All the same,

237
00:09:59,265 --> 00:10:01,200
maybe I should talk to him on my own?

238
00:10:04,370 --> 00:10:05,871
I appreciate what you're trying to do,

239
00:10:05,938 --> 00:10:08,307
but I'm good. Okay.

240
00:10:12,445 --> 00:10:14,814
Yeah, I know Addie. She's a political reporter.

241
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,148
Why? What's this about?

242
00:10:16,215 --> 00:10:17,917
When was the last time you two talked?

243
00:10:17,984 --> 00:10:19,385
Um...

244
00:10:19,452 --> 00:10:21,120
I don't know, about a week ago?

245
00:10:21,187 --> 00:10:22,822
We talked about the new tax bill.

246
00:10:22,888 --> 00:10:24,223
Senator Hoffman's one of the sponsors.

247
00:10:24,290 --> 00:10:26,392
She was looking for a quote. Uh, Ethan?

248
00:10:28,427 --> 00:10:30,329
This is last night at 7:45.

249
00:10:30,396 --> 00:10:32,698
You and Addie Ricard.

250
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,743
Sorry, I--I thought you meant

251
00:10:43,809 --> 00:10:45,211
when was the last time we talked at length.

252
00:10:45,277 --> 00:10:47,179
Last night's interaction was pretty brief.

253
00:10:47,246 --> 00:10:48,714
I didn't think it was relevant.

254
00:10:48,781 --> 00:10:50,649
Well, the question was pretty straightforward.

255
00:10:50,716 --> 00:10:51,984
"When was the last time you talked,"

256
00:10:52,051 --> 00:10:53,953
not "when was the last time you talked at length."

257
00:10:54,020 --> 00:10:55,388
Going forward,

258
00:10:55,454 --> 00:10:57,923
Ethan, please just respond to the actual question

259
00:10:57,990 --> 00:10:59,825
and let us decide what's relevant, okay?

260
00:10:59,892 --> 00:11:01,827
Yeah. Sure.

261
00:11:01,894 --> 00:11:04,196
Sorry. Yes, you were correct.

262
00:11:04,263 --> 00:11:06,432
I did, in fact, meet with her last night for a few minutes.

263
00:11:06,499 --> 00:11:09,435
I needed to talk to her about, uh,

264
00:11:09,502 --> 00:11:11,771
a personal matter.

265
00:11:11,837 --> 00:11:14,040
"A personal matter."

266
00:11:14,106 --> 00:11:15,441
Can you elaborate?

267
00:11:15,508 --> 00:11:17,209
I'm sorry. I can't.

268
00:11:17,276 --> 00:11:18,778
Why not?

269
00:11:18,844 --> 00:11:19,879
Well, like I said,

270
00:11:19,945 --> 00:11:22,148
it's...personal.

271
00:11:23,849 --> 00:11:26,719
Are you and Addie romantically involved?

272
00:11:26,786 --> 00:11:28,120
Excuse me? We need to know

273
00:11:28,187 --> 00:11:30,156
what you were talking about, Ethan.

274
00:11:30,222 --> 00:11:32,992
What the hell is going on here?

275
00:11:33,059 --> 00:11:35,094
Addie Ricard was abducted last night.

276
00:11:35,161 --> 00:11:36,362
Abducted?

277
00:11:36,429 --> 00:11:38,764
Two hours after she talked to you.

278
00:11:38,831 --> 00:11:41,867
So, please, answer the damn question.

279
00:11:43,936 --> 00:11:45,171
Okay, well, hold on a second.

280
00:11:45,237 --> 00:11:46,439
I don't know anything about that.

281
00:11:46,505 --> 00:11:47,907
We were just talking.

282
00:11:47,973 --> 00:11:49,742
The photos suggest you were arguing.

283
00:11:49,809 --> 00:11:52,978
But we weren't arguing! We were...

284
00:11:53,045 --> 00:11:55,181
We were trying to resolve a problem.

285
00:11:55,247 --> 00:11:57,817
For God's sake, stop parsing your words.

286
00:11:57,883 --> 00:11:59,952
We need to know what you were talking about.

287
00:12:00,019 --> 00:12:02,488
The senator, okay?

288
00:12:02,555 --> 00:12:05,257
She and Walter are...

289
00:12:05,324 --> 00:12:07,927
you know, they're involved.

290
00:12:07,993 --> 00:12:10,429
And I just found out yesterday, so I needed to talk to her

291
00:12:10,496 --> 00:12:13,232
about the best way to handle the situation.

292
00:12:13,299 --> 00:12:14,934
Because the senator is married.

293
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,368
Yes. Exactly.

294
00:12:16,435 --> 00:12:18,204
But he's been separated for the past six months,

295
00:12:18,270 --> 00:12:20,339
so it's not as scandalous as it looks.

296
00:12:20,406 --> 00:12:22,007
I just wanted a little bit more time

297
00:12:22,074 --> 00:12:24,276
to figure out the best way to disclose this to the public.

298
00:12:24,343 --> 00:12:25,845
And then, she got upset.

299
00:12:25,911 --> 00:12:27,413
You know, she thought that I was implying

300
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,215
that she was looking for publicity,

301
00:12:29,281 --> 00:12:30,783
but we worked it out.

302
00:12:30,850 --> 00:12:32,251
She said that she would go along

303
00:12:32,318 --> 00:12:33,752
with whatever I thought was best,

304
00:12:33,819 --> 00:12:36,355
that she didn't want to hurt the senator.

305
00:12:36,422 --> 00:12:39,191
And do you know where Addie went next?

306
00:12:39,258 --> 00:12:41,026
Yeah, she went to the M Hotel

307
00:12:41,093 --> 00:12:43,162
to meet up with Senator Hoffman.

308
00:12:43,229 --> 00:12:45,197
And what about you?

309
00:12:45,264 --> 00:12:46,932
Where did you go?

310
00:12:46,999 --> 00:12:49,001
I went home.

311
00:12:49,068 --> 00:12:53,239
To the apartment that I share with your boss.

312
00:12:53,305 --> 00:12:55,040
Isn't that right, Izzy?

313
00:12:55,107 --> 00:12:57,243
Yes.

314
00:12:57,309 --> 00:12:58,911
I'm just doing my job.

315
00:12:58,978 --> 00:13:02,381
I understand. Okay.

316
00:13:02,448 --> 00:13:05,918
Well, we are gonna need to talk to Senator Hoffman right away.

317
00:13:05,985 --> 00:13:07,419
I get it.

318
00:13:07,486 --> 00:13:10,356
Is there any chance you guys can do this discreetly?

319
00:13:10,422 --> 00:13:12,958
Maybe meet at his house instead of his office?

320
00:13:15,327 --> 00:13:17,096
I--I had no idea.

321
00:13:19,498 --> 00:13:22,835
I texted her this morning. She didn't respond.

322
00:13:22,902 --> 00:13:24,937
Sometimes that happens. She gets busy at work.

323
00:13:25,004 --> 00:13:26,472
You two were seeing each other?

324
00:13:26,539 --> 00:13:27,940
For a few months.

325
00:13:28,007 --> 00:13:29,375
Anything unusual happen last night?

326
00:13:29,441 --> 00:13:30,910
Maybe an argument? No. Of course not.

327
00:13:30,976 --> 00:13:33,879
No. Things were great.

328
00:13:33,946 --> 00:13:35,581
We got together around 8:00

329
00:13:35,648 --> 00:13:37,316
at the M Hotel, near Bryant Park.

330
00:13:37,383 --> 00:13:40,819
Had dinner, a bottle of wine.

331
00:13:40,886 --> 00:13:42,888
I gave her a birthday gift.

332
00:13:42,955 --> 00:13:44,957
It was a...

333
00:13:45,024 --> 00:13:47,193
It was a great night.

334
00:13:47,259 --> 00:13:48,494
What happened after dinner?

335
00:13:48,561 --> 00:13:50,863
We went our separate ways.

336
00:13:50,930 --> 00:13:54,266
Headed home around 10:00 or so.

337
00:13:54,333 --> 00:13:56,368
Okay. We'll need someone to substantiate that story.

338
00:13:56,435 --> 00:13:59,171
No, of course. Talk to my driver, Ron.

339
00:13:59,238 --> 00:14:02,308
He picked me up at 8:00, dropped me off around 10:15.

340
00:14:04,643 --> 00:14:08,247
The driver confirmed he took the senator home around 10:00.

341
00:14:08,314 --> 00:14:11,116
We're missing something here.

342
00:14:11,183 --> 00:14:12,284
If this was about money,

343
00:14:12,351 --> 00:14:13,886
we would've heard something by now.

344
00:14:13,953 --> 00:14:15,321
A ransom demand delivered to Addie's sister

345
00:14:15,387 --> 00:14:17,056
or "The Times,"

346
00:14:17,122 --> 00:14:19,625
but her abductor could've killed her on the spot.

347
00:14:19,692 --> 00:14:20,960
Instead he took her.

348
00:14:21,026 --> 00:14:23,329
This was not a crime of passion.

349
00:14:23,395 --> 00:14:26,632
He wanted her alive. The question is, why?

350
00:14:26,699 --> 00:14:29,368
What does he want from her? It could be personal.

351
00:14:29,435 --> 00:14:32,338
Or he could be some kind of sexual sadist or predator.

352
00:14:32,404 --> 00:14:34,173
Jubal, I was going through the security footage

353
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:35,574
from outside the hotel. Uh-huh.

354
00:14:35,641 --> 00:14:37,376
When Addie exits around 10:00,

355
00:14:37,443 --> 00:14:39,211
she's wearing a watch that she didn't have before.

356
00:14:39,278 --> 00:14:40,980
Look.

357
00:14:41,046 --> 00:14:42,481
Yeah. I see it.

358
00:14:42,548 --> 00:14:44,583
Oh, the senator said he gave her a birthday present.

359
00:14:44,650 --> 00:14:46,418
Wait. Why?

360
00:14:46,485 --> 00:14:49,088
Well, it's a limited edition Crowley Tempus smartwatch.

361
00:14:49,154 --> 00:14:51,257
Means it's got a data plan.

362
00:14:53,158 --> 00:14:54,960
We may be able to track her.

363
00:15:10,376 --> 00:15:12,611
Jubal, we're here.

364
00:15:12,678 --> 00:15:14,647
Okay, signal is up ahead and to your left.

365
00:15:14,713 --> 00:15:16,248
About 50 feet.

366
00:15:16,315 --> 00:15:18,951
It's moving, but slowly, so probably on foot.

367
00:15:23,689 --> 00:15:26,025
We got a few dozen homeless in the area.

368
00:15:26,091 --> 00:15:27,426
No sign of Addie.

369
00:15:27,493 --> 00:15:29,194
Keep going.

370
00:15:29,261 --> 00:15:31,463
Signal is about 30 feet, due north.

371
00:15:31,530 --> 00:15:33,165
She could be in one of those tents,

372
00:15:33,232 --> 00:15:35,100
but they aren't due north.

373
00:15:40,773 --> 00:15:43,609
Witness said our abductor was left-handed, right?

374
00:15:43,676 --> 00:15:46,045
Yeah.

375
00:15:50,149 --> 00:15:52,518
Hey. FBI!

376
00:16:02,561 --> 00:16:04,196
Stop! FBI!

377
00:16:06,332 --> 00:16:09,268
Hey!

378
00:16:09,335 --> 00:16:11,003
Hey!

379
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,515
FBI! Don't move!

380
00:16:29,121 --> 00:16:30,289
Where is she?

381
00:16:30,356 --> 00:16:32,157
What--what? Who?

382
00:16:32,224 --> 00:16:34,426
Addie Ricard. Where is she?

383
00:16:34,493 --> 00:16:36,161
I don't know any Addie.

384
00:16:36,228 --> 00:16:38,297
I haven't done anything wrong. Yeah?

385
00:16:38,364 --> 00:16:41,066
Where'd you get this watch? I found it.

386
00:16:41,133 --> 00:16:44,069
I swear to God, I did.

387
00:16:44,136 --> 00:16:46,238
Show us where. Now.

388
00:17:43,695 --> 00:17:46,398
Couldn't be more than 15 or 20 minutes ago.

389
00:17:46,465 --> 00:17:48,333
It's not even dry yet.

390
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,170
This guy might've done more than just take her watch.

391
00:18:00,245 --> 00:18:01,547
You got quite a rap sheet, Mike.

392
00:18:01,613 --> 00:18:03,549
Petty theft, possession of a controlled substance

393
00:18:03,615 --> 00:18:05,551
with intent to distribute, and you want us to believe

394
00:18:05,617 --> 00:18:07,719
that you just happened upon the scene of an abduction.

395
00:18:07,786 --> 00:18:09,421
I didn't have nothing to do with any of that!

396
00:18:09,488 --> 00:18:11,490
Okay, there's a lot of blood in there.

397
00:18:11,557 --> 00:18:13,125
The dogs will be here soon.

398
00:18:13,192 --> 00:18:15,160
I'm sure if you're lying, they'll be the first to know.

399
00:18:15,227 --> 00:18:16,295
But I didn't kill anybody.

400
00:18:16,361 --> 00:18:17,529
I'd never do something like that.

401
00:18:17,596 --> 00:18:20,098
Of course not, 'cause you're a choir boy.

402
00:18:20,165 --> 00:18:21,767
Yeah, tell us what happened.

403
00:18:21,834 --> 00:18:24,636
There was this blue car out back.

404
00:18:24,703 --> 00:18:26,572
It looked new. You know the make?

405
00:18:26,638 --> 00:18:28,273
Chevy, I think.

406
00:18:28,340 --> 00:18:31,210
You catch the license plate? No. Didn't look.

407
00:18:31,276 --> 00:18:33,178
I started walking over there to, you know,

408
00:18:33,245 --> 00:18:35,614
see if there was anything inside, anything to steal.

409
00:18:35,681 --> 00:18:37,483
There was a car seat in the back.

410
00:18:37,549 --> 00:18:39,384
They're real easy to pawn. Okay.

411
00:18:39,451 --> 00:18:40,853
So you walked over to the blue Chevy

412
00:18:40,919 --> 00:18:43,121
looking for something to steal. Then what happened?

413
00:18:43,188 --> 00:18:45,190
I saw this dude come out of the warehouse wearing a mask.

414
00:18:45,257 --> 00:18:46,792
And he's carrying a woman over his shoulder,

415
00:18:46,859 --> 00:18:48,527
so I got the hell out of there.

416
00:18:48,594 --> 00:18:49,695
Was she alive?

417
00:18:49,761 --> 00:18:51,330
I'm not sure. She was bleeding.

418
00:18:51,396 --> 00:18:52,698
He put the woman in the car?

419
00:18:52,764 --> 00:18:54,500
In the trunk.

420
00:18:54,566 --> 00:18:56,235
Then he drove off.

421
00:18:56,301 --> 00:18:58,136
A few minutes later, I went back into the warehouse

422
00:18:58,203 --> 00:18:59,505
to see what the hell happened.

423
00:18:59,571 --> 00:19:01,473
That's when I found the watch.

424
00:19:01,540 --> 00:19:03,342
And you didn't think to call the cops?

425
00:19:03,408 --> 00:19:06,778
You just took the watch, went about your business, huh?

426
00:19:09,715 --> 00:19:11,884
All right, take him down to 26 Fed.

427
00:19:11,950 --> 00:19:13,819
Check him for blood, hairs, third-party DNA.

428
00:19:13,886 --> 00:19:16,221
If he's clean, let him go.

429
00:19:16,288 --> 00:19:17,589
Okay. Come with me.

430
00:19:17,656 --> 00:19:19,858
Find any prints? Not yet.

431
00:19:19,925 --> 00:19:21,860
Just lots of blood and glass.

432
00:19:24,696 --> 00:19:26,498
I can't imagine what's going through Isobel's mind

433
00:19:26,565 --> 00:19:27,933
right now.

434
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,701
You think Ethan's really mixed up in all this?

435
00:19:29,768 --> 00:19:32,237
No, but...

436
00:19:32,304 --> 00:19:35,908
I also know how many times I thought I was sure about a guy.

437
00:19:35,974 --> 00:19:37,910
You know, if Townes is telling the truth,

438
00:19:37,976 --> 00:19:39,444
if another man was holding Addie here,

439
00:19:39,511 --> 00:19:40,445
it would be the perfect spot.

440
00:19:40,512 --> 00:19:41,747
Isolated,

441
00:19:41,813 --> 00:19:43,715
very little foot traffic.

442
00:19:43,782 --> 00:19:44,883
The question is, why'd he leave?

443
00:19:44,950 --> 00:19:47,452
Why risk moving her?

444
00:19:47,519 --> 00:19:49,555
Hey, I think I found something.

445
00:19:57,796 --> 00:19:59,531
Fingerprints on the candy wrapper

446
00:19:59,598 --> 00:20:01,867
belong to Viktor Branislav.

447
00:20:01,934 --> 00:20:03,735
Blood on the floor is a match to Addie Ricard,

448
00:20:03,802 --> 00:20:05,971
which means we know Addie was actually there.

449
00:20:06,038 --> 00:20:07,839
We suspect Viktor is the abductor.

450
00:20:07,906 --> 00:20:10,375
We do not know for certain. We need more proof.

451
00:20:10,442 --> 00:20:11,910
Could be old Viktor is just another squatter

452
00:20:11,977 --> 00:20:13,912
with a sweet tooth. I don't think so, Boss.

453
00:20:13,979 --> 00:20:16,515
We're scrubbing recent NYPD car theft reports.

454
00:20:16,582 --> 00:20:18,517
Found a blue Chevy Malibu with a car seat

455
00:20:18,584 --> 00:20:20,285
that was stolen two days ago.

456
00:20:20,352 --> 00:20:21,820
Okay.

457
00:20:21,887 --> 00:20:24,256
Guessing that's the vehicle the tweaker saw,

458
00:20:24,323 --> 00:20:27,326
so I pulled video from the location of the car theft.

459
00:20:29,394 --> 00:20:31,897
Take a look at the scar above the right eye.

460
00:20:31,964 --> 00:20:33,799
It's a match. It sure is.

461
00:20:33,865 --> 00:20:36,602
That means Viktor Branislav is officially a suspect.

462
00:20:36,668 --> 00:20:38,370
What else do we know about this chap?

463
00:20:38,437 --> 00:20:40,472
He's a Russian immigrant here on an expired visa.

464
00:20:40,539 --> 00:20:43,308
Works in real estate. He have a local address?

465
00:20:43,375 --> 00:20:46,612
No. Address on his visa app's outdated.

466
00:20:46,678 --> 00:20:48,847
No active phone, but I pulled his State Department file,

467
00:20:48,914 --> 00:20:51,016
and his visa application was sponsored by his uncle,

468
00:20:51,083 --> 00:20:52,484
Sergei Branislav. Okay.

469
00:20:52,551 --> 00:20:53,652
What do we know about him?

470
00:20:53,719 --> 00:20:55,253
He's been here for 32 years.

471
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:56,955
He graduated from NYU, and,

472
00:20:57,022 --> 00:20:58,957
like his nephew, he also works in real estate.

473
00:20:59,024 --> 00:21:00,459
He owns a bunch of rental properties

474
00:21:00,525 --> 00:21:02,461
and a few warehouses...

475
00:21:02,527 --> 00:21:04,529
including the one where Addie was being held.

476
00:21:04,596 --> 00:21:06,832
245 Weller Road.

477
00:21:06,898 --> 00:21:08,867
He owns that building. Okay, okay.

478
00:21:08,934 --> 00:21:11,370
Are Viktor and Sergei connected to Addie Ricard in any way?

479
00:21:11,436 --> 00:21:12,738
I don't think so. I've been running

480
00:21:12,804 --> 00:21:14,773
all kinds of screens, but I keep coming up empty.

481
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:16,808
Hmm, what about Senator Hoffman?

482
00:21:16,875 --> 00:21:18,410
There a possible nexus there?

483
00:21:18,477 --> 00:21:20,445
I've been looking, but so far nothing.

484
00:21:20,512 --> 00:21:22,414
So why would two Russian immigrants

485
00:21:22,481 --> 00:21:23,982
in the real estate business

486
00:21:24,049 --> 00:21:25,851
grab up a young female journalist

487
00:21:25,917 --> 00:21:27,719
and not even bother to ask for ransom?

488
00:21:27,786 --> 00:21:30,489
I can think of a few reasons, all of them bad.

489
00:21:30,555 --> 00:21:31,923
Do these two have any priors?

490
00:21:31,990 --> 00:21:33,392
Have they ever been investigated

491
00:21:33,458 --> 00:21:35,560
for any kind of sex crimes? I don't know.

492
00:21:35,627 --> 00:21:37,029
The State Department just flagged

493
00:21:37,095 --> 00:21:38,630
my inquiry into Sergei.

494
00:21:38,697 --> 00:21:39,865
I'm locked out.

495
00:21:39,931 --> 00:21:41,533
What do you mean locked out?

496
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:42,868
No, that's a good thing.

497
00:21:42,934 --> 00:21:44,936
Means DHS is probably working the guy.

498
00:21:45,003 --> 00:21:47,739
Kelly, reach out to DHS Rep Belmont.

499
00:21:47,806 --> 00:21:49,875
We need to see him ASAP.

500
00:21:51,910 --> 00:21:53,645
We've been up on Sergei for seven months.

501
00:21:53,712 --> 00:21:55,747
He's connected to an organized crime syndicate

502
00:21:55,814 --> 00:21:57,683
we've been focused on that's based in Moscow.

503
00:21:57,749 --> 00:21:58,950
And how does he fit in?

504
00:21:59,017 --> 00:22:00,519
He's their connection stateside.

505
00:22:00,585 --> 00:22:01,987
He's more of a peripheral player.

506
00:22:02,054 --> 00:22:03,922
Peripheral? How so?

507
00:22:03,989 --> 00:22:06,558
He invests the syndicate's dirty money.

508
00:22:06,625 --> 00:22:09,027
Buys up commercial real estate all across New York.

509
00:22:09,094 --> 00:22:10,662
He handles the money, but otherwise

510
00:22:10,729 --> 00:22:11,997
keeps his hands clean.

511
00:22:12,064 --> 00:22:13,732
So why would someone like this

512
00:22:13,799 --> 00:22:15,400
want to abduct a journalist?

513
00:22:15,467 --> 00:22:17,469
I'm not sure, but we just found some video

514
00:22:17,536 --> 00:22:19,471
we think might be related to your case.

515
00:22:19,538 --> 00:22:20,972
This stays within the room.

516
00:22:21,039 --> 00:22:23,608
Oh, yeah. Of course.

517
00:22:23,675 --> 00:22:25,744
Sergei owns a restaurant in Brighton Beach.

518
00:22:25,811 --> 00:22:27,679
He and Viktor spend a lot of time there.

519
00:22:27,746 --> 00:22:29,781
We've had a pole cam up on it for the past three months.

520
00:22:29,848 --> 00:22:31,116
Okay, when was this captured?

521
00:22:31,183 --> 00:22:33,585
Two hours ago.

522
00:22:33,652 --> 00:22:36,621
That's Sergei Branislav.

523
00:22:36,688 --> 00:22:38,957
And that is Senator Walt Hoffman.

524
00:22:44,196 --> 00:22:46,565
What the hell is going on here?

525
00:22:59,111 --> 00:23:01,947
This footage is from two hours ago?

526
00:23:02,013 --> 00:23:03,882
That means that the senator went and talked to Sergei

527
00:23:03,949 --> 00:23:06,017
directly after we questioned him.

528
00:23:06,084 --> 00:23:08,053
And shortly after that, Sergei's nephew, Viktor,

529
00:23:08,120 --> 00:23:09,855
took Addie from the warehouse.

530
00:23:09,921 --> 00:23:11,923
It looks like the senator tipped him off.

531
00:23:15,660 --> 00:23:17,629
It's possible, but until we know that for sure,

532
00:23:17,696 --> 00:23:19,765
we proceed with caution.

533
00:23:21,767 --> 00:23:22,901
I'm gonna reach out to Ethan,

534
00:23:22,968 --> 00:23:24,469
set up a one-on-one with the senator.

535
00:23:24,536 --> 00:23:26,671
Okay. Great.

536
00:23:30,776 --> 00:23:32,844
I know I'm the new guy, but--

537
00:23:32,911 --> 00:23:36,481
Yeah, we're all thinking the same thing here.

538
00:23:36,548 --> 00:23:39,117
If and when it becomes an issue,

539
00:23:39,184 --> 00:23:41,620
I will ask Isobel to step aside.

540
00:23:47,692 --> 00:23:49,027
Hi. Hey.

541
00:23:49,094 --> 00:23:50,462
Thank you for doing this.

542
00:23:50,529 --> 00:23:52,464
We just need to cut through the crap

543
00:23:52,531 --> 00:23:54,699
and figure out what's going on. Yeah, well, um,

544
00:23:54,766 --> 00:23:57,803
that's what I was hoping for too, but...

545
00:23:57,869 --> 00:23:59,604
the senator changed his mind.

546
00:23:59,671 --> 00:24:01,473
He called his lawyers. They're inside right now.

547
00:24:01,540 --> 00:24:03,842
They told him not to say a word.

548
00:24:03,909 --> 00:24:05,577
But you said that we had a deal.

549
00:24:05,644 --> 00:24:07,679
I know, and we did,

550
00:24:07,746 --> 00:24:09,948
and I told him that he should talk to you alone,

551
00:24:10,015 --> 00:24:13,084
but then, you know, he called his lawyer.

552
00:24:13,151 --> 00:24:15,887
Hey. Izzy.

553
00:24:15,954 --> 00:24:17,489
Izzy. Hey! Listen to me.

554
00:24:17,556 --> 00:24:19,591
Wait. Hold on a second, okay?

555
00:24:19,658 --> 00:24:22,761
I know how this looks, okay?

556
00:24:22,828 --> 00:24:25,497
But the senator is...concerned, you know?

557
00:24:25,564 --> 00:24:26,932
He just--he wants to be careful.

558
00:24:26,998 --> 00:24:28,133
Careful?

559
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,101
When his girlfriend is missing?

560
00:24:30,168 --> 00:24:32,871
When her life is at stake?

561
00:24:32,938 --> 00:24:34,706
I am trying to help you here,

562
00:24:34,773 --> 00:24:36,741
but there is nothing that I can do.

563
00:24:36,808 --> 00:24:38,844
I don't know what's going on.

564
00:24:38,910 --> 00:24:40,912
Are you sure about that?

565
00:24:40,979 --> 00:24:43,682
What's that supposed to mean?

566
00:24:43,748 --> 00:24:45,884
Are you suggesting that I'm holding back information?

567
00:24:45,951 --> 00:24:48,887
From the FBI? From you?

568
00:24:48,954 --> 00:24:50,956
You get paid to protect the senator,

569
00:24:51,022 --> 00:24:53,124
who is refusing to cooperate,

570
00:24:53,191 --> 00:24:56,962
so how could I possibly trust you right now?

571
00:24:57,028 --> 00:24:59,798
Because it's me!

572
00:24:59,865 --> 00:25:00,999
Izzy!

573
00:25:08,139 --> 00:25:10,108
Shoot.

574
00:25:11,676 --> 00:25:13,879
Keep going. Hey.

575
00:25:13,945 --> 00:25:15,614
Senator Hoffman lawyered up.

576
00:25:17,883 --> 00:25:20,118
He lawyered--I thought-- Yeah, it didn't work out.

577
00:25:20,185 --> 00:25:22,254
So for now, let's assume

578
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:23,622
that that is an admission of guilt.

579
00:25:23,688 --> 00:25:25,257
I want you to dig into him

580
00:25:25,323 --> 00:25:27,626
and his chief of staff, see what you can find.

581
00:25:27,692 --> 00:25:29,761
In the meantime, let's focus on Sergei.

582
00:25:29,828 --> 00:25:32,564
We know that shortly after his meeting with the senator,

583
00:25:32,631 --> 00:25:34,733
Addie was moved from the warehouse,

584
00:25:34,799 --> 00:25:37,535
which means he had to contact his nephew, Viktor.

585
00:25:37,602 --> 00:25:38,803
Where are we on the phones?

586
00:25:38,870 --> 00:25:40,572
As far as we know, they were using burners.

587
00:25:40,639 --> 00:25:43,275
Sergei doesn't have a cell in his name.

588
00:25:43,341 --> 00:25:45,143
What about the restaurant? We checked.

589
00:25:45,210 --> 00:25:46,912
Landlines haven't been used all day.

590
00:25:46,978 --> 00:25:48,847
Okay. We're trying to track down the burners.

591
00:25:48,914 --> 00:25:50,849
See where they were bought, get their serial numbers.

592
00:25:50,916 --> 00:25:54,152
And that could take hours, maybe days.

593
00:25:54,219 --> 00:25:55,921
So let's try something different.

594
00:25:55,987 --> 00:25:57,656
Come at him more direct.

595
00:25:57,722 --> 00:25:59,124
Spook him. See what he does.

596
00:25:59,190 --> 00:26:00,659
And more importantly, who he calls.

597
00:26:00,725 --> 00:26:02,994
It could lead us right to Viktor.

598
00:26:03,061 --> 00:26:05,297
Yeah, I like it. Just don't tip your hand.

599
00:26:05,363 --> 00:26:07,265
If he thinks we're onto him, he's more likely

600
00:26:07,332 --> 00:26:08,800
to pull the plug and kill Addie,

601
00:26:08,867 --> 00:26:10,769
assuming she's not dead already.

602
00:26:10,835 --> 00:26:13,204
Isobel.

603
00:26:13,271 --> 00:26:16,308
So I guess things are getting kind of complicated for you.

604
00:26:16,374 --> 00:26:18,009
Maybe I should take over

605
00:26:18,076 --> 00:26:20,045
just in case the facts break the wrong way.

606
00:26:22,047 --> 00:26:25,684
We want to make sure you're protected.

607
00:26:25,750 --> 00:26:28,119
Yeah. Yeah, that's a good idea.

608
00:26:29,921 --> 00:26:32,023
Thank you. Yeah.

609
00:26:46,338 --> 00:26:48,239
Excuse me?

610
00:26:48,306 --> 00:26:50,809
NYPD. I'm looking for, uh,

611
00:26:50,875 --> 00:26:52,043
Sergei Branislav?

612
00:27:09,027 --> 00:27:10,395
Those two in the back may look like

613
00:27:10,462 --> 00:27:12,664
a couple of affable old-timers,

614
00:27:12,731 --> 00:27:15,333
but they both have Glocks in their waistbands.

615
00:27:17,802 --> 00:27:21,706
Okay.

616
00:27:21,773 --> 00:27:23,341
Hey.

617
00:27:23,408 --> 00:27:24,809
Can I help you?

618
00:27:24,876 --> 00:27:27,012
Sergei Branislav? - Here we go.

619
00:27:27,078 --> 00:27:29,414
I'm here to notify you of a vagrant that we arrested

620
00:27:29,481 --> 00:27:31,850
breaking into one of your buildings in Red Hook.

621
00:27:31,916 --> 00:27:35,053
Address, 245 Weller Road.

622
00:27:35,120 --> 00:27:38,023
A break-in? Okay.

623
00:27:38,089 --> 00:27:39,758
Was there any damage?

624
00:27:39,824 --> 00:27:41,326
Some broken glass.

625
00:27:41,393 --> 00:27:43,695
We also found some blood.

626
00:27:43,762 --> 00:27:46,331
Guessing one of the vagrants probably cut himself somehow.

627
00:27:46,398 --> 00:27:48,066
And you already arrested him, right?

628
00:27:48,133 --> 00:27:50,902
Mm-hmm. So what do you need from me?

629
00:27:50,969 --> 00:27:52,203
Well, we're trying to ascertain

630
00:27:52,270 --> 00:27:54,105
if there was any property stolen,

631
00:27:54,172 --> 00:27:55,840
so if you'd like to make a statement,

632
00:27:55,907 --> 00:27:57,876
we can, um, file a complaint,

633
00:27:57,942 --> 00:28:00,211
press criminal charges.

634
00:28:00,278 --> 00:28:02,113
Yeah, I'm sure

635
00:28:02,180 --> 00:28:04,182
whatever losses, if any, were minimal,

636
00:28:04,249 --> 00:28:07,052
so no, just let the guy go.

637
00:28:07,118 --> 00:28:09,120
That's fine with me.

638
00:28:09,187 --> 00:28:10,922
Thank you.

639
00:28:10,989 --> 00:28:12,323
Tiffany, you gotta keep him talking.

640
00:28:12,390 --> 00:28:14,159
We're not there yet.

641
00:28:14,225 --> 00:28:15,960
You sure you don't want me

642
00:28:16,027 --> 00:28:17,829
to write up a report?

643
00:28:17,896 --> 00:28:19,864
You know, the insurance won't pay if you don't file charges.

644
00:28:21,533 --> 00:28:23,802
Let me show you this guy.

645
00:28:23,868 --> 00:28:25,804
Um...

646
00:28:25,870 --> 00:28:27,172
How much more time do you need?

647
00:28:27,238 --> 00:28:28,773
To capture all his cell data and the call logs,

648
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:30,141
another 30 seconds.

649
00:28:30,208 --> 00:28:32,410
Sorry. One sec.

650
00:28:32,477 --> 00:28:34,813
Um, just give me

651
00:28:34,879 --> 00:28:36,815
one second...

652
00:28:38,416 --> 00:28:41,152
So sorry.

653
00:28:41,219 --> 00:28:43,221
One sec.

654
00:28:43,288 --> 00:28:46,091
Oh! Okay. Here we go.

655
00:28:46,157 --> 00:28:48,927
Name's Mike Townes. He's a local meth head.

656
00:28:48,993 --> 00:28:51,396
Likes to break into cars and buildings.

657
00:28:51,463 --> 00:28:53,498
You know, it won't be long before he's robbing people

658
00:28:53,565 --> 00:28:54,866
up close and personal.

659
00:28:54,933 --> 00:28:56,501
If you file a charge,

660
00:28:56,568 --> 00:28:58,870
I can violate his probation and get him off the streets.

661
00:28:58,937 --> 00:29:00,772
Got it.

662
00:29:00,839 --> 00:29:03,408
All done. - No, I'm good.

663
00:29:03,475 --> 00:29:05,343
Thanks for notifying me, though.

664
00:29:05,410 --> 00:29:07,378
Appreciate your time, Mr. Branislav.

665
00:29:12,417 --> 00:29:13,985
Focus on the outgoing calls he made

666
00:29:14,052 --> 00:29:16,121
directly after the meeting with the senator this morning.

667
00:29:16,187 --> 00:29:17,789
There's only one. It's to another burner.

668
00:29:17,856 --> 00:29:20,291
Location? Yeah, pinging it now.

669
00:29:20,358 --> 00:29:22,193
I just got a signal. It's in Flushing, Queens.

670
00:29:22,260 --> 00:29:24,162
Can you narrow in? Working on it.

671
00:29:24,229 --> 00:29:26,498
Hey, guys, Sergei just texted the same burner phone.

672
00:29:26,564 --> 00:29:29,367
"Cop was here. Getting worried. Coming to you."

673
00:29:29,434 --> 00:29:31,035
Then he told the guy to turn off his phone,

674
00:29:31,102 --> 00:29:32,971
said he was gonna do the same.

675
00:29:39,878 --> 00:29:41,279
Hey, so Sergei's on the move.

676
00:29:41,346 --> 00:29:42,480
Looks like he's going to meet up with Viktor.

677
00:29:42,547 --> 00:29:44,082
Do we still have eyes on him? No.

678
00:29:44,149 --> 00:29:46,117
We lost him when he jumped on the BQE.

679
00:29:46,184 --> 00:29:48,386
Got a BOLO out on his vehicle, though, so...

680
00:29:48,453 --> 00:29:52,257
I just finished combing through Ethan's phone.

681
00:29:52,323 --> 00:29:54,826
He called Sergei's burner two minutes after

682
00:29:54,893 --> 00:29:57,362
he and the senator talked to Maggie and OA.

683
00:30:01,966 --> 00:30:03,501
All right, grab up Ethan. Bring him in.

684
00:30:03,568 --> 00:30:05,970
Yeah.

685
00:30:09,941 --> 00:30:12,210
All right, Ethan, you got two choices.

686
00:30:12,277 --> 00:30:15,246
Either you come clean about Addie, Sergei, the senator,

687
00:30:15,313 --> 00:30:16,814
or we're gonna charge you.

688
00:30:16,881 --> 00:30:18,550
Charge me with what?

689
00:30:18,616 --> 00:30:20,318
Obstruction, lying to a federal agent,

690
00:30:20,385 --> 00:30:21,686
and that's when the fun really begins.

691
00:30:21,753 --> 00:30:24,289
Racketeering, kidnapping-- - Look, I already told you.

692
00:30:24,355 --> 00:30:27,392
I have no idea who kidnapped Addie, or why.

693
00:30:27,458 --> 00:30:29,460
I'm trying to help you, but I need you to cooperate.

694
00:30:29,527 --> 00:30:31,296
And I'm sorry, but I am just as in the dark

695
00:30:31,362 --> 00:30:32,564
as you are on this.

696
00:30:32,630 --> 00:30:34,299
You are the senator's chief of staff.

697
00:30:34,365 --> 00:30:36,201
It is your job to know. You expect--

698
00:30:38,903 --> 00:30:41,472
Ethan.

699
00:30:41,539 --> 00:30:43,007
This is your last chance to come clean,

700
00:30:43,074 --> 00:30:44,609
to tell us everything you know,

701
00:30:44,676 --> 00:30:47,445
or we will move forward with criminal charges.

702
00:30:57,522 --> 00:30:58,990
Okay, fine.

703
00:31:02,193 --> 00:31:03,461
The senator told me

704
00:31:03,528 --> 00:31:05,897
that the kidnappers contacted him this morning

705
00:31:05,964 --> 00:31:08,466
about a ransom, but he told me not to say anything.

706
00:31:08,533 --> 00:31:09,867
It would endanger her life.

707
00:31:09,934 --> 00:31:12,203
And that is all I know. I swear.

708
00:31:12,270 --> 00:31:14,539
Why did you call Sergei Branislav?

709
00:31:14,606 --> 00:31:16,407
Sergei?

710
00:31:16,474 --> 00:31:18,009
I never called that guy in my life.

711
00:31:18,076 --> 00:31:20,111
I don't even have his number. Why...

712
00:31:25,216 --> 00:31:27,552
The senator asked to borrow my phone after the meeting.

713
00:31:27,619 --> 00:31:29,220
He told me his battery was dead.

714
00:31:29,287 --> 00:31:30,922
Okay. Do the senator and Sergei know each other?

715
00:31:30,989 --> 00:31:32,323
Are they friends?

716
00:31:32,390 --> 00:31:34,025
Have they had business dealings with one another?

717
00:31:34,092 --> 00:31:36,060
And why would Sergei take Addie? What's his objective?

718
00:31:36,127 --> 00:31:37,996
I don't know! I have no idea, you guys.

719
00:31:38,062 --> 00:31:41,032
If I did, I would tell you.

720
00:31:41,099 --> 00:31:43,167
Jubal,

721
00:31:43,234 --> 00:31:45,403
I'd like to speak to Ethan alone for a minute.

722
00:31:53,111 --> 00:31:55,079
You have one shot to save yourself.

723
00:31:55,146 --> 00:31:57,248
One. Do you understand me?

724
00:31:57,315 --> 00:32:00,184
Why are you talking to me like I'm a criminal?

725
00:32:00,251 --> 00:32:02,120
You're gonna wear a wire.

726
00:32:02,186 --> 00:32:04,589
A wire? Seriously? What are you talking about?

727
00:32:04,656 --> 00:32:06,624
You're gonna get the senator talking.

728
00:32:06,691 --> 00:32:08,526
You're gonna find out why Addie was taken

729
00:32:08,593 --> 00:32:10,194
and where we can find her.

730
00:32:10,261 --> 00:32:11,562
I understand that you're upset. I do.

731
00:32:11,629 --> 00:32:13,464
But do you really expect me to wear a wire

732
00:32:13,531 --> 00:32:15,600
and sell out Senator Hoffman-- Yes!

733
00:32:15,667 --> 00:32:18,603
That is exactly what I expect you to do.

734
00:32:18,670 --> 00:32:20,471
I can't do that, Izzy.

735
00:32:20,538 --> 00:32:23,141
My career will be over.

736
00:32:23,207 --> 00:32:25,043
But unemployment is a whole hell of a lot better

737
00:32:25,109 --> 00:32:26,411
than prison.

738
00:32:39,390 --> 00:32:41,159
I tried to call you all day.

739
00:32:41,225 --> 00:32:43,027
What's going on?

740
00:32:43,094 --> 00:32:44,429
You tell me, Walt.

741
00:32:44,495 --> 00:32:46,297
The FBI just put me in handcuffs.

742
00:32:46,364 --> 00:32:48,099
They think that you and Sergei have something to do

743
00:32:48,166 --> 00:32:49,434
with Addie's abduction.

744
00:32:49,500 --> 00:32:50,968
What? Yeah.

745
00:32:51,035 --> 00:32:53,071
They questioned me for two hours.

746
00:32:55,039 --> 00:32:57,041
What'd you tell them?

747
00:32:57,108 --> 00:32:58,443
I told them

748
00:32:58,509 --> 00:33:00,611
that I had no idea what they were talking about.

749
00:33:00,678 --> 00:33:01,646
No, no. Hey! No, no. Hey!

750
00:33:01,713 --> 00:33:03,114
Don't. Don't. Stop.

751
00:33:03,181 --> 00:33:05,216
All right, put the phone down. No more lawyers.

752
00:33:05,283 --> 00:33:06,651
Not until you come clean with me

753
00:33:06,718 --> 00:33:08,553
and you tell me exactly what's going on.

754
00:33:15,660 --> 00:33:17,628
Look, I can make this go away.

755
00:33:17,695 --> 00:33:19,397
Walt, my girlfriend is the SAC.

756
00:33:19,464 --> 00:33:21,199
She calls the shots,

757
00:33:21,265 --> 00:33:22,734
and she trusts me.

758
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,236
And I can get her to cover for you, but I cannot do that

759
00:33:25,303 --> 00:33:28,506
unless you tell me exactly what happened.

760
00:33:28,573 --> 00:33:30,308
Where's Addie?

761
00:33:30,375 --> 00:33:31,609
Don't push too hard.

762
00:33:31,676 --> 00:33:32,710
You want me to walk away from this?

763
00:33:32,777 --> 00:33:34,779
From you? You say the word, I'm gone.

764
00:33:34,846 --> 00:33:37,448
If I knew where she was, I'd already be there.

765
00:33:37,515 --> 00:33:39,317
I love this woman.

766
00:33:39,384 --> 00:33:41,285
I will do anything I can to save her.

767
00:33:41,352 --> 00:33:43,588
Okay, good. That's good.

768
00:33:43,654 --> 00:33:45,456
But what does Sergei have to do with any of this?

769
00:33:45,523 --> 00:33:46,724
Sergei...

770
00:33:49,260 --> 00:33:51,229
Sergei thinks I screwed him over.

771
00:33:54,298 --> 00:33:56,200
He and I,

772
00:33:56,267 --> 00:33:57,802
we had a deal.

773
00:34:00,204 --> 00:34:01,506
I told him about

774
00:34:01,572 --> 00:34:03,741
the federal redevelopment plan in Ozone Park,

775
00:34:03,808 --> 00:34:05,476
that it was a done deal.

776
00:34:05,543 --> 00:34:07,678
And out of pocket, he started buying up adjacent land,

777
00:34:07,745 --> 00:34:10,281
and he was gonna kick me back 10% of the profits, but--

778
00:34:10,348 --> 00:34:13,351
The redevelopment funds already went to Staten Island.

779
00:34:13,418 --> 00:34:14,819
Yeah.

780
00:34:17,321 --> 00:34:19,524
And I told him there was nothing I could do about it.

781
00:34:19,590 --> 00:34:21,759
So what is this? Some kind of retaliation?

782
00:34:21,826 --> 00:34:23,728
Well, yes. Yes.

783
00:34:23,795 --> 00:34:26,197
He already floated me some cash.

784
00:34:26,264 --> 00:34:27,598
He floated me some gifts,

785
00:34:27,665 --> 00:34:29,100
and he told me if I didn't repay him,

786
00:34:29,167 --> 00:34:30,501
that he'd kill her.

787
00:34:30,568 --> 00:34:32,804
If this gets out, you're done!

788
00:34:32,870 --> 00:34:35,139
You're going to jail, Walt! You don't think I know this?

789
00:34:35,206 --> 00:34:38,074
Why do you think I've been going so crazy?

790
00:34:38,141 --> 00:34:40,344
But I'm good. I'm good.

791
00:34:40,411 --> 00:34:44,215
You see, I've already come up with 700,000 in cash.

792
00:34:44,282 --> 00:34:45,750
Sergei said he'd take that as a down payment,

793
00:34:45,817 --> 00:34:47,752
so all we have to do-- all we have to do

794
00:34:47,819 --> 00:34:49,654
is to get the FBI out of my life

795
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:51,722
for a few hours.

796
00:34:51,789 --> 00:34:53,257
And we're good.

797
00:34:58,196 --> 00:34:59,497
Tell him that you can do that.

798
00:34:59,564 --> 00:35:01,632
You're gonna talk to me, make up some lies.

799
00:35:01,699 --> 00:35:03,401
All right, everybody. Get ready.

800
00:35:03,468 --> 00:35:06,604
I want every corner of this ransom drop covered.

801
00:35:22,286 --> 00:35:26,457
I have a clear view of the park and Senator Hoffman.

802
00:35:30,428 --> 00:35:33,197
So far no sign of Sergei or his nephew.

803
00:35:35,233 --> 00:35:36,667
Yeah, same here.

804
00:35:36,734 --> 00:35:40,238
We don't have a visual on the suspects or the vehicle.

805
00:35:40,304 --> 00:35:41,472
Scratch that.

806
00:35:41,539 --> 00:35:44,408
Blue Chevy Malibu just landed.

807
00:35:44,475 --> 00:35:45,676
Grabbed a piece of curb

808
00:35:45,743 --> 00:35:48,145
on the south side of the street.

809
00:35:48,212 --> 00:35:49,780
There it is. Yeah! We see it.

810
00:35:49,847 --> 00:35:51,482
The car seat's still in the back. That's it.

811
00:35:51,549 --> 00:35:52,717
All right. Look alive, everybody.

812
00:35:52,783 --> 00:35:54,852
We got eyes on Viktor.

813
00:35:54,919 --> 00:35:57,555
Yeah, we got eyes on Sergei as well.

814
00:35:57,622 --> 00:35:59,190
Okay, what about Addie?

815
00:35:59,257 --> 00:36:00,391
Any sign of her?

816
00:36:00,458 --> 00:36:03,227
No. She might be in the trunk.

817
00:36:03,294 --> 00:36:04,529
All right, let them clear their vehicle

818
00:36:04,595 --> 00:36:05,863
and head toward the senator.

819
00:36:05,930 --> 00:36:08,799
Wait for OA and Tiffany, to make the arrest signal.

820
00:36:21,012 --> 00:36:22,847
Ready to go?

821
00:36:25,483 --> 00:36:27,184
Jubal, it looks like Viktor's got a weapon

822
00:36:27,251 --> 00:36:29,186
under his jacket on his left hip.

823
00:36:32,990 --> 00:36:34,492
We've got no other cameras in the park?

824
00:36:34,559 --> 00:36:36,460
Nothing. All right, we lost visual.

825
00:36:36,527 --> 00:36:38,396
So make contact at your discretion.

826
00:37:08,526 --> 00:37:10,561
Viktor Branislav. FBI--

827
00:37:12,363 --> 00:37:14,632
Shots fired. Shots fired. Agent down.

828
00:37:14,699 --> 00:37:16,267
Hey! - I got Viktor.

829
00:37:16,334 --> 00:37:17,568
Show me your hands!

830
00:37:19,437 --> 00:37:20,838
Senator, don't even think about it!

831
00:37:24,475 --> 00:37:26,277
Hey! Stop running!

832
00:37:26,344 --> 00:37:27,478
You all right, Scola? Yeah.

833
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:30,448
Scola, you all right?

834
00:37:30,514 --> 00:37:32,550
Bruised a rib. Didn't break the skin.

835
00:37:44,862 --> 00:37:47,698
Hey, you good? Go.

836
00:37:47,765 --> 00:37:49,500
Okay, we need to secure the vehicle

837
00:37:49,567 --> 00:37:51,369
to see if Addie's in it. Let's go.

838
00:37:51,435 --> 00:37:53,304
I'm on it.

839
00:38:21,832 --> 00:38:23,401
Hey, Addie.

840
00:38:23,467 --> 00:38:24,602
I'm Maggie Bell. I'm with the FBI.

841
00:38:24,669 --> 00:38:26,303
Everything's okay. You're safe now.

842
00:38:26,370 --> 00:38:28,673
I promise.

843
00:38:28,739 --> 00:38:30,641
Jubal, Addie's okay.

844
00:38:33,778 --> 00:38:35,680
Good work, everybody.

845
00:38:35,746 --> 00:38:37,381
Great work. Yeah.

846
00:38:37,448 --> 00:38:38,749
Good job, guys.

847
00:38:40,818 --> 00:38:42,653
You all right?

848
00:38:42,720 --> 00:38:44,588
Okay. You're okay.

849
00:38:47,591 --> 00:38:48,959
All right, and you already had these marked

850
00:38:49,026 --> 00:38:50,061
in the log, right?

851
00:39:00,871 --> 00:39:03,874
Addie, how are you holding up?

852
00:39:03,941 --> 00:39:06,410
Okay, I guess. Addie!

853
00:39:06,477 --> 00:39:07,812
Ma'am, you can't come this way.

854
00:39:07,878 --> 00:39:10,114
Please, that's my sister. Can--Addie!

855
00:39:10,181 --> 00:39:11,615
Let her through. Okay.

856
00:39:16,620 --> 00:39:17,788
Oh, my God.

857
00:39:24,829 --> 00:39:26,130
All right. What do you got?

858
00:39:26,197 --> 00:39:28,532
How 'bout that, huh?

859
00:39:35,172 --> 00:39:37,141
Hey. Hi.

860
00:39:37,208 --> 00:39:38,676
So thought you'd want to know

861
00:39:38,743 --> 00:39:40,845
we just spoke to Senator Hoffman.

862
00:39:40,911 --> 00:39:43,514
Good.

863
00:39:43,581 --> 00:39:46,050
Um, listen,

864
00:39:46,117 --> 00:39:48,419
I know that my relationship with Ethan

865
00:39:48,486 --> 00:39:51,489
put you in a tough spot, and I'm sorry about that,

866
00:39:51,555 --> 00:39:54,959
but I really appreciate the way you handled it.

867
00:39:55,025 --> 00:39:56,660
Sure thing.

868
00:40:00,064 --> 00:40:01,899
So...

869
00:40:01,966 --> 00:40:03,601
what are you still doing here?

870
00:40:03,667 --> 00:40:05,636
Mm, I don't know.

871
00:40:05,703 --> 00:40:08,405
Avoiding the inevitable, I guess.

872
00:40:08,472 --> 00:40:11,108
Yeah, I imagine you and Ethan have

873
00:40:11,175 --> 00:40:12,943
a lot to discuss.

874
00:40:13,010 --> 00:40:15,746
Good news is, he was telling the truth.

875
00:40:15,813 --> 00:40:18,549
End of the day, he was in the dark just

876
00:40:18,616 --> 00:40:20,484
trying to do his job.

877
00:40:22,686 --> 00:40:26,056
So at least he is who you thought he was.

878
00:40:26,123 --> 00:40:28,192
I know, but

879
00:40:28,259 --> 00:40:30,127
I'm afraid I--

880
00:40:30,194 --> 00:40:32,596
I'm not who he thought I was,

881
00:40:32,663 --> 00:40:34,999
you know?

882
00:40:35,065 --> 00:40:36,433
Sometimes...

883
00:40:38,736 --> 00:40:40,838
Sometimes I think it's easier

884
00:40:40,905 --> 00:40:43,474
to assume someone's being dishonest,

885
00:40:43,541 --> 00:40:44,875
right?

886
00:40:44,942 --> 00:40:47,978
It's the cost of doing this job for so long.

887
00:40:53,083 --> 00:40:55,119
You know,

888
00:40:55,186 --> 00:40:58,455
maybe you should go home and

889
00:40:58,522 --> 00:41:00,691
tell Ethan what you just told me.

890
00:41:21,579 --> 00:41:23,547
Hey. Hey.

891
00:41:26,851 --> 00:41:28,853
What's with the bag?

892
00:41:31,755 --> 00:41:33,224
I, uh,

893
00:41:33,290 --> 00:41:36,227
booked a room at a hotel.

894
00:41:38,295 --> 00:41:41,665
I just need some time alone. That's all.

895
00:41:48,038 --> 00:41:50,541
I'll call you tomorrow, okay?

896
00:41:53,110 --> 00:41:55,713
For--for what it's worth...

897
00:41:58,716 --> 00:42:00,284
I am sorry.

898
00:42:39,723 --> 00:42:41,959
Stay tuned for scenes from our next episode.

899
00:43:04,381 --> 00:43:06,050
for scenes from our next episode.
