Hell, yeah.
Hey! What are you doing? [car door closes] Hey, calm down, all right? I-I'm just getting in my car. Put the bag down and get out of here. Let me just show you my ID. You can compare it to the registration in the glove box.
You son of a bitch! This is a house of worship. Bottom feeder!
[cell phone vibrates] You're supposed to be off the clock. So if this is work-related-- Hey, just checking-- did I initial that surveillance report on Cruz?
Yes. The I's are dotted. the T's are crossed. Now, please, go enjoy your vacation. Okay, thanks for having my back. Always. [cell phone vibrates] Hey, listen, I got to go. Me too. Thanks, Mag. I told you to pack for five days, not five months. Well, since you refuse to reveal the destination of this romantic getaway, I needed to be thorough. But I did limit myself to six pairs of shoes. Oh. Well, seven, including these. Well, the deal was, if I got to leave my gun, you got to leave your flip-flops. Where we're going, we're not gonna need either, okay?
Okay. Low-life thief just popped the trunk. Wouldn't have wanted what was inside anyway. Did the vic have ID on him?
No. Wallet's missing. But we ran the plates. DMV photo confirms it's his-- Darius Brogan. Throat cut and stuffed in his own trunk. Groundskeeper mention anything about security cameras on site? No, none that work. Folks had just gone inside for Mass, and congregants didn't see anything when they arrived, so it's safe to assume he was killed elsewhere. And then dumped here. Thank you. Can I take a UV light, please?
There you go.
All right, team, so Darius Brogan was found in the trunk of his own car at St. Joseph's Historic National Site-- throat slit, with a Phoenix stamp on his hand. So let's start with the basics. What do we know about this guy?
Darius Brogan of Woodhaven-- divorced dad of three. He's been driving trains for Voyager, the national passenger railway, since 2004. He's got some misdemeanors for illegal gambling. Yeah, he's got nine credit cards, all maxed out with online sports betting charges, so gambling habit. Uh, nine maxed-out cards-- not really sure we'd call that a habit, more like a problem. We know who was taking Darius's bets?
Don't know who, but I might know where. Three bars in the city use the same phoenix door stamp that Darius had on his hand. But only one, Phoenix Rising, is a known hub for Sem Side-- Russian outfit heavy into drug trafficking and robust numbers racket. Yeah, Phoenix Rising is just a few minutes from St. Joseph's. The owner is Maikel Kuriev-- suspected numbers racketeer for Sem Side. Okay, I know this one. A gambling addict walks into a bar owned by a dangerous bookie and winds up dead. Let's pay Kuriev a visit.
Excuse me. How you doing? You the owner here, Maikel Kuriev?
Who's asking? FBI. You recognize this guy-- Darius Brogan?
6 foot, forties, hangs out at the Phoenix club. A lot of guys in and out of here. I can't help you. Maybe you could take another look for me. I'm a little busy right now. Yeah, looks like it. Big shipment in, hey? I'm gonna need you to open one of these boxes. Move. Yeah, word on the street is one of the bars around here has been running fentanyl out of their bathroom. I got him. I got him.
Scola, I lost him.
He's running west through the park.
[grunts] Lawyer. Yeah, you're gonna need one after we search those boxes. Let's start with the warrant we have for your outdoor security footage. "Security footage"?
Daniel Brogan came through your bar. Now he's a dead man, so you're in a bit of trouble, Maikel. There goes my 16 grand. So Brogan's dead, and you think I killed him?
Who kills a guy who owes him money?
Not me.
All right, folks, we just seized the security footage from Kuriev's bar. Let's see if we can get eyes on what happened. The ME estimates Darius's time of death at 1:30 p.m. I can start shortly before then. Yeah, that's him, right? Yeah.
Looks like he's been overserved. Uh, not overserved. Tox screen just landed. His system was overloaded with Rohypnol. You're telling me this guy was roofied.
All right, who's this?
Why don't I believe this guy's a Good Samaritan?
Yeah, here we go. All right.
Okay, so this is a robbery.
All right, so I guess I didn't know the punch line after all. Darius's gambling debts had nothing to do with this. His wallet was the target. Well, his credit and debit cards haven't been used since the murder. So what might they have been looking for?
Um, I don't know, his driver's license, his grocery card, his-- his worker's ID-- he drove for Voyager, right? All right, so what access would Darius's work ID grant him? His ID would allow him into break rooms, engine rooms, and the driver's cabin of any train he was scheduled to drive. Right. So--so when is his next shift?
According to Voyager, Darius Brogan is currently on shift. His key card was used half an hour ago to access a train-- Northstar 236 to Niagara Falls. [train horn blows] Niagara Falls--very romantic. So it was a good surprise? Great surprise. Niagara Falls is amazing.
You're seeing the Canadian side, right?
Uh, the New York side. Oh, nice. Don't be a snob.
That's your Fed face. What is it?
Uh, nothing.
You know I can tell when you're lying. That guy's got a gun under his jacket. It's illegal for civilians on a Voyager train. So he's probably undercover law enforcement.
This feels wrong.
What gives, man? We were supposed to stop there. My business partner was waiting to get on. We're not making any stops.
This train is under our control now. So everybody, stay down!
And don't move!
Isobel, we have a problem.
All right, we know that there are 200 innocent lives on Northstar 236, including OA and his girlfriend, Gemma Brooks. Do we know if Voyager has been able to make contact?
No radio response. And Northstar 236 just blew past its first stop. All right, can we control it remotely?
Voyager tried, but the command's been overridden by the driver. Yeah, the only way the train can be stopped is from inside the driver's cabin. Hey, uh, we're able to hack into the cabin feed. Okay. This camera was added by the NTSB. The hijackers may not know about it. It's not enough for facial rec, right?
All right, radio the driver directly. I want to talk to him. Copy that. Has OA responded?
[sighs] Not yet.
Everybody, get out your phones. You said you wanted to unplug this weekend. That's not what I meant. Make contact when you clear the tunnel, and drive fast.
Phone. Now! Phone. No. I'm waiting on an important call about a merger worth far more than anything you're after here. I don't care about your fancy job, lady. Give me your phone.
You two next.
Phone.
Hey. Give him your phone, Gemma. We're fully cooperating.
[whispering] Just do as they say--we need to lay low. [whispering] Lay low? But you're-- No one can know that I'm a Fed. If they feel threatened, things will escalate. People will die, okay?
Okay, so what do we do?
Phone.
Gimme your phone. Drop it in the bag.
The emergency brake is too far to go for safely. We need to stay invisible, help people stay calm, and take everything in so we can get my team whatever they need to take these guys down when the time is right. How about right now?
Your work phone. It's my fault you don't have your gun. It's the least I could do. [sighs] You know I love you, right?
[cell phone vibrates] Okay, okay, this is OA from Gemma's phone. He clocks two armed hijackers, plus the driver. No one knows he is law enforcement. Are you ready to talk to the train driver?
Okay, quiet. Please. Patch me in. Okay.
This is Assistant Special Agent in Charge Jubal Valentine with the FBI. I see that you and your accomplices have taken over Northstar 236. At this point, no one has been hurt. This can end now--all you have to do is stop the train. Who am I speaking with? - I'm not giving you my name. Okay, then a-a pseudonym, then, so we can have a proper conversation. [sighs] Jamie. Okay, Jamie, so why are you doing this?
Why does anyone do anything in this country?
We want money. We will email you a wallet address to your tip line. We want $261 million in Monero-- untraceable crypto. [sighs] That's a pretty penny, Jamie. That's gonna take me a minute. In the meantime, there are a lot of innocent people on that train. How can we make sure no one gets harmed?
You can't. You've got one hour, or everyone on this train dies!
[sighs] That's an astronomical ask. Yeah, and specific-- $261 million. Is there any chance the Justice Department approves this? They can't just let OA die along with 200 other people. Look, I will fight for this, but we have to have a plan B. Yeah, I'll work the hijacker for an angle. Okay, I'll run down anything you guys find. All right, a-and, Jubal, stall. [train rumbling, horn blares]
I think we can take these guys. Absolutely not. If we get involved, it's only gonna escalate things. Or it'll end it. Look at you-- you're like an MMA fighter. I'm an attorney, and in negotiations, a blind side is a one-way ticket to messing things up.
Everything's gonna be okay, Gem. I know. I trust you.
You're both so lucky. I wish my husband was here. Just stay calm, ma'am. You're gonna see your husband again.
Quiet, please. Patch me in. Yeah.
We're working on getting you that crypto, Jamie. You should have it soon. Good. [breathing heavily] Hurry. You guys must really need this money to go through all this. It's not for us. It's for our families and our neighbors. We are not bad people. Okay, their family, their neighbors-- I want to know who those people are. What do they need help with, Jamie?
[sobbing] Everything. You have no idea.
Nah, screw this, man. I told you to sit down.
It's not working!
Jamie, was that a gunshot?
See?
Get the money. People are in danger.
OA!
I pulled the brake, but it didn't work. [stammers] Stay with me. I need a doctor! Is there a doctor?
Baby, hold tight. Hold tight. I need a doctor! I need help! Stay with me. Stay with me, Gem. Drop the gun.
Raise your hands slowly. No sudden movement, or I'll kill you. Tie him up-- tight, so he doesn't mess anything else up. Okay, it's all right. You're gonna be okay, Gem. You're gonna be okay.
[breathing heavily] I'm sorry.
What the hell's going on in there?
It's under control. Just drive. [groaning]
Jubal. NYPD says a rail hand was found dead in Queens.
Hey, Jubal, have you heard from OA?
Nothing since the gunshot, but in different bad news, Northstar 236 just deviated from its programmed route. What, so the driver, what, took an unexpected turn?
I'm being told that's not how it works. Rail switches on the tracks are set to keep the train on the right route. Voyager can flip the switches from their control center, but this wasn't them. So these people have help in the field? Jubal, if you hear from OA, please, good, bad, anything... You'll be my first call.
Hey. Special Agent Bell. This is Special Agent Scola. You have a dead railway employee? A couple of kids spotted him. Thought he was asleep. Vic is Gabriel Hong. Keys and wallet are missing. His throat was slit.
That's the same MO as Darius Brogan. All right, so Hong was an employee for Voyager?
Nah, he worked at CTX Logistics. It's a freight company based Upstate in Selkirk. He's in charge of maintaining rail switches. Does that mean something to you?
Actually, yeah. Voyager rents CTX's tracks-- New York lines. Okay, so Hong was killed for his access to the switches. All right, we're gonna need to find out if the camera on this side of the building was working.
Hey. Hey! She's bleeding out, man. You got to let me do something. Stop talking. If she dies, things get a thousand times worse for you. Think about it. It's a federal murder charge. I can help with that. You can help? Nice try.
I'm an FBI agent. That's bull. Check my back pocket-- my credentials.
This isn't a ploy-- that's my girlfriend, and I love her, and I cannot let her die. Please!
That's the same coat as the guy who killed Darius. Are those Ohio plates?
They sure are. Registered to a Teddy Adams-- 42-year-old car mechanic from Bethlehem, Ohio, no priors. Okay, so I understand why they would want Brogan's Voyager ID. But Hong's rail switch keys-- what, are they trying to reroute the train for their escape plan? Well, let's find out. Moran just ran a trace on Teddy's cell, and it's pinging to a CTX train yard in Yonkers.
See?
I'm trying to make sure everyone on this train gets off safely. That's including you and her. So untie me. I'm not stupid. It's never gonna happen. Fine. Fine, fine. Don't untie me, but you have to help me save her. Please, this train should have a first-aid kit in the control room-- bring it to me. That and some water and some tea bags, if you can find any. Tea bags?
Yeah, we have some in our luggage. And clean T-shirts. Okay. Anybody have water?
This is your fault. Help her.
Hang tight, Gem.
[door opens] - What's up?
We need the first-aid kit. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Eyes up! We got a face!
All right, so he grabbed the first-aid kit, so the gunshots must've hit someone. But we have a new player with no mask. Tell me who he is, please? [computer whirs] Simon Briggs. He's the owner of Cardinal Hardware & Supply in Logan County, Ohio-- no priors. Long way from home. What's his connection to Teddy Adams?
Uh, nothing other than the zip code. Wait, wait. Hold on. Uh, he was named a plaintiff in a class-action lawsuit for $261 million...
Against CTX Logistics. The freight company? Right, right. They were the company responsible for that train derailment-- happened in West Liberty, Ohio, six years ago. Yeah. Yeah, I remember that. Freight car carrying hazardous materials derailed. 60 people died or something. According to the class-action, that was just the initial death toll. They claimed a botched cleanup and four months of burn-off made the locals sick. Anybody see any money?
Case didn't move forward. All right, so--so maybe this is not a professional crew. They--they're just trying to do right for themselves and their families. You know what, we don't have Jamie's face, but we do have Jamie's voice. We need to run Jamie's voice against every piece of news coverage of the West Liberty train derailment.
Put it down. Open it.
Okay, that's a defibrillator. We don't need that. Listen, as an agent, I have emergency field training. Cut me loose. I can help her. No. I'm not doing that. [breathing heavily]
I can walk you through it. I'm begging. Help her, please.
Yeah, all right. Okay, first, lay her down on the bench. Go, go, go.
Okay.
I need you to soak the tea bag in water. Then place the tea bag on the open wound. The tannic acid is a coagulant that should slow the bleeding. [groaning]
Here.
[groans] It hurts, OA. I know, babe, I know. You're doing good. Just keep breathing. [groans in pain]
Is it working?
It doesn't look like it's working. It looks really bad, man. It's soaking through everything.
Tampons. Does anyone have tampons?
Okay, perfect. Pack the cotton in the wound.
[shouts in pain] It's slowing down.
Now what?
Now we wait. Thank you... everyone.
You're gonna be okay, Gem.
It's definitely Teddy Adams' truck. He's got to be here somewhere.
Scola. Teddy Adams?
FBI. Get down on the ground right-- he's going. He's going.
All right, all right. Put your hands behind your back--let's go. We know that whatever you're doing has something to do with the West Liberty train derailment. You mean the CTX disaster. We also know that you've been tampering with rail switches to reroute Northstar 236. You're too late. My partner's on that train, so you're gonna tell me exactly where you're rerouting it, because I swear to God, I'm gonna make sure you never see daylight again. You hear me?
It doesn't matter what you do to me. Where is it going? We've already won. You might want to check your math on that one, Teddy. You're going down for double murder, and there's no way that any of your comrades are getting a payday either-- let's go. I don't care about the money. I only care that CTX gets what's coming to 'em! Uh, We got a hit on the audio of the driver. It's a match for an interview on local public radio with a Gordon Davis. Really? Public radio for the win. Okay, construction foreman by trade in West Liberty-- uh, married, four daughters, no record. Looks like he was president of the school board at the time of the derailment. Hey, Justice wouldn't approve the crypto ransom, but based on what Teddy said, it sounds like the money was just a stall. This hijacking is about revenge on CTX. Yeah, that tracks. We ID'd the driver, so let me test that theory.
We've got your money.
I don't see it. Stop messing around! Wire it now! Stop the train, and I'll wire the money. We got one of yours tied up-- some Fed. You don't hurry up, he's gonna be the first to die. Gordon Davis of West Liberty. That's who I'm talking to, right? Trust me, you do not want to harm my agent. And you can pass that along to your friend, Simon Briggs. I don't know what you're talking about. Gordon, you're not going to get away with this. We know why you're doing it. The $261 million class action against CTX. You want the money for your community, right?
To rebuild, to make your town safe again. Can't fault us for that. I-I can fault you for conspiring with your friend Teddy Adams to kill a Voyager driver and a CTX rail hand. Teddy? What-- We haven't killed anyone, and Teddy isn't a part of this. Not good enough, Gordon. Why is Teddy changing the course of the train?
I don't--I don't know. I don't know, okay?
It sounds like he's telling the truth. He's spinning out. Yeah. I got to go.
I'm sorry.
Whoa, what are you doing? What the hell is going on with your brother-in-law, Evelyn?
Nothing. Leave it alone. The FBI radioed me and said he's out there killing people, and he's routing this train somewhere from the ground! He's not involved. They're just playing mind games. They don't do that. She's lying to you, just like she lied to us. Uh-uh.
Tell us what's going on... right now! [screams] The money isn't gonna fix what CTX broke! Don't you understand? We need to make a statement! What the hell are you talking about?
This isn't...a train. It's a missile, and there's a target. No one gets hurt. That was the plan. But we are not crashing this train.
Drop the gun, Gordon.
Drop it now, or he's next.
Walk away. Walk away.
What do we do? What do we do?
We can't do anything out here.
She's taking us all down with her.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. We got a new face--a woman. OA never mentioned a female coconspirator, right?
So who am I looking at?
Running facial rec. Stand by. Okay.
This is FBI ASAC Jubal Valentine. I've been dealing with Gordon, but if you're stepping in, I think we should get to know each other.
Damn it. Found her-- Evelyn Adams, public middle-school teacher based out of West Liberty, Ohio. Any chance her husband is the last unidentified hijacker?
No, it seems Chris Adams passed away four years ago--cancer. He is a named party in the class-action against CTX. She's motivated to inflict pain.
Evelyn, please, don't do this!
That's it. We're all gonna die. Hey. We're on the same team now. Untie me so I can help. Shut up! I can tell you don't want to die. Evelyn lied to you, but we still have time. We can fix it. Look, he's working with the Feds I've been talking to. Maybe he can help. These people deserve a chance. We can fix this, but you need my help. [sighs, breathing heavily] Come on.
Come on. Thank you. I'm gonna get you out of here, I promise. Just hold on. Can you do that for me?
Your guns. Your guns. They're no good to you now.
The radio. Okay.
OA, are you okay? Jubal said he heard gunshots. I'm okay, but Gemma was shot. She needs medical. Okay, we're about to get on a helicopter! We're gonna get ahead of the train! We have a chance--the hijackers turned on each other, and the woman in charge of the train is-- Yeah, Evelyn Adams! No, we're up on her! Apparently, money's not her motive! I know. She has us on a collision course to something, but I'm locked out of the driver's cabin. Right! Are you able to get the passengers off the train?
I'm working on it. [train rumbling]
So the Polaroid is developing. Evelyn Adams plans to crash Northstar 236 to get her revenge on CTX, and her brother-in-law tampered with the rail switches to reroute the train. The question is, where? A lot of options. Railway schematics show roughly 4,500 miles of track in New York, plus 600 railway switches. Okay, let's narrow it down. We can map the active switches. Pinging the signals.
[sighs] Well, algebra wasn't my subject, but I'd say we need another variable here. On it. Cross-referencing all properties owned by CTX Railway. Okay, there, that's--that's-- that's more like it. What--uh, what is this destination here?
CTX headquarters-- a freight yard in Selkirk, New York.
Evelyn wants to hit CTX at its heart. We need to evac this yard, yeah?
That won't be enough. That CTX freight yard received 200,000 gallons of liquid vinyl chloride this morning.
And if a train were to collide with that weight of hazmat... There would be a catastrophic explosion. Hundreds, maybe thousands killed. She picked a high-value target. This was her plan all along-- to poison the town where the CTX brass live. Not just the brass, all CTX employees, from the president to the rail hands. There's hundreds of people at risk. All right, can't we just remove the chemicals from this rail yard? No. All the tracks out of that rail yard are backed up for miles with unlogged trains. If we had more time-- Exactly how much time do we have?
At Northstar 236's current speed, we are looking at a collision in... 21 minutes.
[train horn blares] Go. Easy. There it is. That's it. Quick, quick, quick. Hurry! You first, you first, you first. I got you. I got you. I got you. I got you. I got her. I got her. I got her. Okay, Gem, I got you. I got you. I got you. I got you. We got her. Okay. No, what about you?
Someone's got to stop the train, okay?
If I don't see you again, I need you-- No, this is not goodbye. Okay, okay. No goodbyes. No goodbyes. I love you, okay? I love you. Thank you.
Okay, there, OA decoupled the cars. All right, I'll notify State Police SORT Team to arrest the hijackers and get the passengers off when it stops. At the rate they're slowing down, the rear train cars should stop somewhere near Vandenburgh Cove. Hey, great work. Medical will be waiting when the train stops. Now, you think you can talk your way into that driver's cabin?
Tell me everything we have on her.
Evelyn, I need you to open the door. It is just me and you now. Everyone else is off the train. You have zero hostages. You--you should have gone with them. You're only gonna die now. And your girlfriend-- if she lives, the grief is gonna make her wish she hadn't.
Okay. Grief--that's why you're doing this, right?
You lost your husband in the West Liberty derailment, correct?
I didn't lose him. He was taken. He helped with the cleanup because CTX promised it was safe and he was a good man. But then he developed acute myeloid leukemia. Do you have any idea what the pain is like in the late stages?
He just-- he just disappeared. I am so sorry. Evelyn, he did not deserve that, neither did you. Don't act like you care! Nobody cares. Nobody actually cares, not when it's in the middle of nowhere with just normal people.
And if it happens to Selkirk?
Well, then... well, then maybe if one of those families dies, then maybe CTX will care.
What about Chris?
Evelyn, would he want you to die this way?
I'm already dead. [crying]
Then would he want you to make innocent people, like the children you teach, suffer the way he did?
Stop!
Evelyn, open the door. It doesn't need to be like this. [sobbing] Stop! [sniffles]
It's too late.
Evelyn, please--
Evelyn! Evelyn!
Evel--
Guys, Evelyn took herself out. What?
The door's still locked. What are my options?
Uh... okay, schematics show that the driver's cabs are carbon steel with multipronged locks on an electrical system. Brute force will not do it. What will do it, Ian?
Okay, if you can short-circuit the system, cause a power surge, the doors should automatically unlock.
Okay. I'll see what I can find. Okay, OA, hurry. Maggie and Scola are out with an emergency team to get a fail-safe in place, but that fail-safe-- it won't be good. How much time do we have before the fail-safe?
Seven minutes. [sighs] Okay.
We attach this device to the track, and when the train hits, it'll be derailed. It will be a mess, for sure. But not a chemical disaster. What happens to the people on the train? I've only seen these things in action a few times, but it's never pretty for the train that hits it. So--so our friend is just gonna die?
That's our best bet? Or your guy stops the train before it's too late.
Okay, ramping up the charge now.
[electricity crackling] Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
[electricity crackling] Guys, I only have one more charge.
Okay, I'm in. Just deactivated the throttle. How do I stop this thing?
Okay, talk to me. What do you see?
Is there a dynamic brake? It should be orange.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, got it. Do I push it forward?
What's your speed now?
Uh, 80 miles an hour. You are going too fast. The stopping distance will be too tight. There should be a red emergency brake. Got it. Push the emergency brake and the dynamic brake at the same time. Okay. OA, you've got 200 meters of track left. Hey, this will not be a smooth stop. [sniffs] Copy that.
[groans] You're gonna hit the derailer in eight seconds. （呻吟）你八秒之後就會撞埋去個脫軌器度。
[exhaling sharply] That worked. （急速呼氣）掂咗。
That worked. 掂咗。
Hey. 喂。
Hey, Gem. 喂，Gem。
I told you it wasn't goodbye. And I... I believed you. 我同你講過呢次唔係永別。而我…我相信你。
But you should get some rest. The doctor said everything's gonna be fine. Okay. 不過你應該休息吓。醫生話一切會冇事㗎。好冇？
Yeah, I might go back to sleep. 好，我可能再瞓一陣。
That's a good idea. 好主意。
OA. How is she? She's good. How are you? I don't know. I keep playing it over and over in my head. If I didn't get into that fight, if I did something different, she wouldn't be in the hospital right now. Hey. Was this my fault? OA。佢點呀？佢幾好。你呢？我唔知。我成日喺個腦度係咁重複諗住。如果我冇打嗰場交，如果我做咗啲唔同嘅嘢，佢而家就唔會喺醫院。喂。呢件事係咪我嘅錯？
Maggie, I was supposed to protect her. I was supposed to protect her. Maggie，我本應要保護佢㗎。我本應要保護佢㗎。
[wolf howls] ic] （狼嗥聲）
