- A journey of 1,000 steps begins with a single hack.

You have to breathe like the falcon.

Ah. Hello, firewall.

Transferring information now.

Come on.

- We're in.

We're in.

Dude! Really?

Hey, girl. Hello?

- Hello?

- Hey, it's Steph.

- Steph?

- Stephanie Cooper.

I mean, I know we haven't talked for months,

but I am still one of your best friends.

- Oh, hey, Stephanie.

How can I help you?

- How can you help me?

You called me, remember?

- Um, nope. You called me.

- Oh, I did?

I don't remember now. Huh.

- Wait a minute.

Actually, you know what?

I'm jogging and some loser bumped into me.

He must have bumped my phone and called you.

- Oh, makes sense.

Anyway, how's it going?

It's been a while.

- I know, I know.

It's just, I've been really busy at work.

But, hey, can I call you back later?

- Sure.

It'd be fun to catch up.

You know what?

Maybe we can even get together sometime.

It's really not that far if we meet halfway.

- Yeah, yeah. Maybe.

Hey, I'm just gonna finish my run before work,

but I'll call you back later, okay?

- All right.

Nice talking.

- Yeah, you too.

Dr. Jakes.

- Good morning.

- Oh, Dr. Jakes,

we discovered an issue with the equipment inventory

I was hoping you could shed some light on.

- Equipment inventory?

- Yeah.

It's a new requirement from the external auditors this year.

All equipment purchases greater than $10,000

need to be located and tagged.

- I can't talk with you about this right now.

I have prior commitments.

- Dr. Jakes, it's important.

I have to present these findings

to the auditor in a few days.

- Hope, I said I'm busy.

- It's so strange.

So all these items have been fully accounted for

except for these few pieces of missing equipment.

- They had to have been properly ordered and received

for them to show up on this list.

- Right.

- Have you asked Dr. Jakes?

- Mm-mm, no. Not yet.

Why don't we just check the lab records

and see what we can find out?

- Sounds good.

- Okay, I think that's everything.

Oh, and don't forget, your cost cutting reductions

are due by the end of the week.

And if you have any personnel decisions or cuts

or anything like that, be sure and run them by HR

so Pam won't have any surprises.

Okay, I've got a conference call

with corporate in five minutes.

Everybody have a great day.

See you soon.

- I've not yet heard from you regarding any personnel cuts.

- Well that's because I don't plan to make any.

Without my research and development area

there is no new products division.

- That's not gonna fly very well

with Copeland or with Corporate.

- Well, that's of no concern to me.

- Okay, here's the authorizing documents.

The purchase requisitions, purchase orders, and invoices.

It looks like it's all computer equipment

designed for laboratory correlations.

Very high-end techy stuff.

- Hmm, Langdon Laboratories.

I don't remember hearing that name before.

- Neither have I, but it looks like

all the items in question were purchased from them.

- Yeah, I see that.

- So, what's our next step?

- Hey, I came by hoping you had some time.

- I'll call you right back.

- So we really need to talk today.

- Hope, I really am busy.

- Okay, well, I actually just had some questions

about a company called Langdon Laboratories.

It seems that we're missing some items purchased from them.

- Well I don't know anything about that.

- Okay, well, it's just gonna take a second.

- Hope, I really am busy.

Excuse me.

I have an outside appointment.

I'll be back in an hour or two.

- Okay, so we'll talk when you get back?

- That's fine.

- Wow, he's in a mood.

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- I've been giving it some thought

and I think I do have some cost-cutting ideas.

Mm-hmm.

Yes, yes, I will.

Okay, I have to go, but I will stop by your office

later this afternoon.

Okay.

Hello.

- Yes, this is Dr. Levitt.

I've got your test results.

- And?

- I need you to come into the office.

We need to talk.

- I don't have time for that right now.

Just tell me.

What's going on?

- David, we need to meet in person as soon as possible.

- Okay then, tomorrow morning.

- Oh, hey.

I'm so glad you stopped by.

I have something I want to show you here.

- Not now.

I'm here for a different purpose.

You can put those away.

- What's going on here?

- This is never easy, but you're being terminated,

effective immediately.

- What?

You can't do that.

- Yes, Hope, I can.

All the department heads have been tasked with downsizing

to compensate for the cost overruns of their departments.

And I've chosen to eliminate your position.

- Well, that doesn't make any sense.

I'm your financial manager.

What's the basis of your decision?

- Well at this point, it doesn't matter.

- Well, it matters to me.

- Okay, look, I'm gonna have

the financial manager in marketing

oversee my research and development department from here on.

- This doesn't have anything to do with me, does it?

- You'll receive a fair severance package,

including six months' salary and full benefits.

- Dr. Jakes.

- Sorry, Hope, but he had to make cuts.

He didn't want to.

It was orders from the top.

- No, there were irregularities in Jakes' department.

Does this have anything to do with why I'm being terminated?

- Absolutely not.

You heard him.

He's able to get another financial person

to cover your area.

- This isn't right.

I need to get-

- Security is outside waiting

to escort you to your exit interview,

at which time you'll be asked

to surrender your badge and key.

I'll see you in my office.

- I can help you carry your things out if you like.

- That's okay, I'm all right.

- Most of your vitals are fairly good,

but your blood work indicates

you're starting into serious decline.

The chemo and radiation you've received

have slowed the disease, but I'm afraid things

won't stay that way for long.

- How long?

You know I can't give you

an accurate timeline.

I would say a few months, possibly only weeks.

I'm sorry.

- What symptoms should I expect?

- Continued weakness, fatigue, coughing, fever.

You'll know the disease is accelerating

when random bleeding occurs.

- And there's nothing else we can do?

- David, your mutant variation

of acute lymphoblastic leukemia is extremely rare,

and in most adult cases proves fatal.

- Have you heard of chimeric antigen

receptor T-cell therapy?

- Of course, but that's not an option in your case.

The T-cells are taken from the patient's own blood.

You know that.

And your blood is contaminated.

- What about biological experimentation?

My own research indicates that if we can find a survivor

who had the disease as a child

and is still in complete remission,

those blood cells could be used.

- The chances of you finding

that kind of match are nearly non-existent.

You'd have to search virtually every cancer database,

all of which are highly restricted

and require special authorization.

- Well, I'm highly motivated.

- God, please help me find a way through this.

Falcon here.

How can I do ya?

I have another assignment for you.

Lay it on me.

The previous searches you ran,

I need to find any childhood survivor of the same disease.

Gotcha. What else?

- They need to have been in remission for at least 20 years.

- Well that's pretty specific.

I'm gonna have to run database queries

on hundreds, if not thousands, of hospital locations.

- Just do it.

My friend needs this medical help.

I'll pay your usual rate.

- You came to the right place, my friend.

I got the results back from the previous request.

I'm sending that to you right now.

Come on, I need an answer.

- From what you're telling me,

you don't really have much of a case.

- My boss targeted me for some reason, okay?

I told him about the missing equipment,

and boom, the next day I'm terminated.

You don't find that suspicious at all?

- It depends.

Has there been downsizing

in any other departments at Darthon?

- Well yeah, some.

- Well then they are well within their rights to let you go,

especially considering that they're not planning

to refill your position.

You're gonna have to prove

that you were wrongfully discriminated against.

- I do have documents back in my office

that prove the missing equipment was received and paid for.

- It's no longer your office, Hope.

You've been let go.

- Right.

So what then?

- Let me see if I can talk

to some of the other partners in the firm

and come up with something.

But I can't promise anything.

- Okay. Thanks, Aunt Elizabeth.

I have never seen this picture of you and Mom before.

Well that was quite a bit before your time.

- Yeah.

I miss her more and more every day.

She left us too soon.

- Oh, that reminds me.

I came across this while spring cleaning.

It was a gift, a very special gift.

It seems a young man was highly interested

in a beautiful young lady.

And after putting him off for quite some time,

she finally realized that she loved him too.

This was a gift from your father to your mother

on their first Valentine's Day.

- Thanks. This is very special.

- I'm remembering now that she left it in my apartment

shortly before the accident.

She'd want you to have it, Hope.

- Hello. - Hey, it's Danielle.

I'm so upset.

I don't understand what just happened.

It wasn't right.

- Hey, no, thank you.

That really means a lot.

- Is there anything I can do for you?

- Well, if you're willing, I could use a little help

tracking down that missing equipment.

- Of course.

- Maybe you can check in receiving first

and find out exactly who signed for that.

I mean, that might shed a little light on why I was let go.

- Sure.

I'll call back when I have something.

- Great. Thanks.

- Michael and Allison.

- Hi.

- Hey, Bob.

- Hey, nice seeing ya.

- Hey, I wanted to drop a gift off

since I missed your retirement party.

- Ah, come on, you didn't have to do that.

- Well, I remembered how much you liked golf, so...

- Wow.

Yeah, hey, anything to help my golf game.

I really appreciate that.

- You got it.

So, Chief of Police to retirement, huh?

Any plans?

- Nope, I'm just taking it easy.

Like they say, one day at a time.

- Yeah, well, good for you. - Yeah.

- All right.

Well I promised Allison some ice cream.

Isn't that right?

- Yay!

- Hey, lucky girl.

You have fun.

- Thank you.

- Good seeing you. - Take care.

- Take care.

- Always good to see you, Bob.

Same.

- All right, let's go get some ice cream.

Come on.

- Hey, Stephanie.

No, I was actually thinking

about our conversation the other day.

I got some unexpected time off

and so I thought I would just come home for a visit.

Tonight, if that's okay.

Okay, I'll see you then.

This is 87.9 FM.

Forgiving is always right and seldom easy.

Holding on to bitterness is really like drinking poison and

waiting for the other person to die.

But when you can offer forgiveness,

that's where true healing can begin.

We're talking about all that and more on-

- Okay, really?

Easy for you to say.

Continue on I-96 for seven more miles.

- Hey. - Hey.

Just thought I'd check in and let you know I'm getting close.

- I can't wait to see you again.

- So, tell me, what's changed since I left?

- Changed?

Girl, you haven't been home in forever.

Don't worry though, I'll catch you up on things.

- Oh, I know you will.

I can't wait.

- So see you soon? - Yeah.

It says I should be there in about 15 minutes.

Okay, I'll see you then.

Hello?

- What'd you find? Anything?

- Yeah, man, and I'll tell you,

it wasn't easy, even for Falcon.

It took most of the night.

Dylan, time to eat.

What was that?

- Nothing, man. Just tune it out.

- So what'd you find?

- I checked the databases for cancer centers nationwide.

So far I've only found three people who qualify.

- I only need one.

- First one's a flake.

What do you mean?

- Well, he's in remission,

but now he's somehow contracted a different disease.

So I'm guessing you don't want to hear about him?

- No, I need someone who is fully healthy.

- Second one's in San Diego.

He's in complete remission.

No other diseases.

- Good, good, good, good.

Tell me about him.

- He was in a car accident 11 days ago.

A couple broken ribs and there's something wrong

with his leg, but otherwise he's golden.

- What part of fully healthy did you not understand?

Do you not have any good news?

- Easy, man, I was getting there, okay?

- You said there were three.

What about the third one?

- Yeah, her name's Phyllis Kerney.

No other info on file.

- How can we find her?

- Well, that's the thing, man.

12 years ago she just disappeared.

- Disappeared?

What do you mean disappeared?

- Yeah, you heard me, gone.

No death certificate. Nothing.

She just vanished.

Then find her.

- I'm gonna need some more bread.

- What? Money?

I don't care.

- Your friend doesn't know how lucky he is

to have you helping him out like this.

- Look, it's more than a friend.

It's my brother.

- Oh, deep, man.

Anything I can do to help?

- Just tell me where I can find Phyllis.

- Okay.

- So I see your parents redid their decor.

Looks really nice.

- Yeah, finally, after all these years.

Makes house sitting more enjoyable, I guess.

- Yeah, I bet.

So where did they go anyways?

- On a two-week cruise.

- Two weeks.

- Fancy, right?

- Oh wow.

Yeah, nice.

- I see what you're doing.

Stalling so you don't have to tell me

what's really going on.

- What, can't I just make

a little impromptu trip to see my best friend?

- Duh, of course.

It's just not like you to be spontaneous.

- Look, I am so tired.

I had a really long drive.

How about we just chill and have some fun?

- Of course. - Okay.

Besides, you haven't told me

what life's like in small town USA now.

- Different since you left for the big city

and climbed so far up the corporate ladder.

I am so proud of you.

- Hey, Danielle. - Hey.

So, I was able to get the receiving tickets.

- Oh, great.

Can you scan those and send them to me?

- Sure.

Also, I noticed something really interesting.

What's that?

- All the equipment was signed for as received

by none other than Dr. David Jakes.

- Uh...unbelievable.

Yeah, okay, I have to go.

I'll call you back.

- Okay, you had a full night's sleep.

So what's going on?

- You know, you'd be like a really awesome interrogator.

- Thank you.

- Okay well, no, honestly nothing.

I'm just taking a little impromptu vacation.

- Hm. - Hm.

- Okay.

How long are you here for?

- I don't know, maybe a week.

- You know what? - I'm gonna go call my boss

and see if I can take some time off

so we can do something fun.

- Okay, sounds good to me.

- Just a reminder, you have a meeting with Mr. Copeland

in 15 minutes and he wants you to be in the conference room.

- Have you found her yet?

So it seems that the same guy who fired me

is the same guy who signed for the missing inventory.

- Why would that matter?

- Because VPs don't sign for received inventory.

No, most likely some lab technician would do that.

Something is fishy.

- I understand, but that still

does not imply discrimination.

- Okay, well, I'm gathering more information

about the company they purchased from, Langdon Laboratories.

- Good. Keep me posted.

Yep, will do.

- It appears we're behind on the testing phase

of our type two developmental drugs.

- Both Centilillium and Cialate are on track.

- 90% of our future revenue depends

on the successful introduction of these two products.

- Like I said, things are on track.

- Not according to this. They're not.

- We might have been somewhat delayed,

but we can easily make that up in the next phase.

- This is important.

I need you to be front and center on this.

- I have been somewhat distracted lately, I'll admit that.

But listen to me.

We are still within our timeline.

- David, this is too important to fail.

Our entire future depends on these two products.

Now I'm gonna give you a few weeks to get it together.

- Are we done here?

Because I'd like to get back to work.

- What you looking for?

- My phone's missing.

Do you see it anywhere?

- No, but let me just call it real quick.

- Oh, good idea.

- Okay, well, it's in the car somewhere.

- No, that's the car Bluetooth ringing.

- Right, which means it's in the car or somewhere nearby.

- Oh. - Yeah.

- Ooh!

- Okay.

Ah, here you go.

Found it.

- This is your phone.

- Nope, this is your phone.

- Look, it has your name on it, so obviously it's yours.

- Are you serious?

I'm calling you, so my name pops up on the display.

Yeah.

- Well, that's embarrassing.

- Don't worry, nobody needs to know that just happened.

- You're the best.

- Yeah. What are you eating?

- Candy.

- Ew, this expired a year ago.

- They're good?

- No, let's go, let's go.

Girls trip. - Woo!

- The Falcon has been victorious.

I found her.

- Where is she?

- Hey, be nice.

This is big.

- Hey, listen, I just got chewed out by my boss.

I don't need this from you.

Just tell me.

- Okay, here's the thing.

Do you remember how I said

that she disappeared 12 years ago?

Yeah. So what?

- That's because she changed her name.

- To what?

- Hold on, let me send you her info now.

- Are you telling me this is our leukemia survivor?

- That's her, Phyllis Hope Kerney,

now known as Hope P. Howard.

- Unbelievable.

Why? Do you know her or something?

What?

- I need to talk with you.

No, don't bother me.

The company car is outside my house.

It's unlocked.

The key's under the mat.

Send someone to get it.

- Wait, I really need to talk with you.

- No, leave me alone.

- Hope.

Where do you want to sit?

- Down by the lake looks nice.

- Yeah.

- Hope?

Hey.

I didn't expect to see you around here.

- Hey, Michael.

- We should go.

- Wow, it's been a while.

- Just. - Will you stop?

Yeah, it's definitely been a while.

- Oh, sorry.

This is my daughter, Allison.

- Hi, Allison.

Nice to meet you.

- I'm almost five.

- You're five?

Wow, big girl.

Listen, Michael, I was really sorry to hear about your wife.

- Thanks for saying that.

It means a lot.

It's been a rough couple of years for us.

We actually moved back shortly after she passed.

- I can't even begin to imagine

how hard that must have been.

- Yeah.

Yeah, I was actually able to transfer in as a detective,

but eventually left to become a history teacher.

- Wait, what?

Here in town?

- Good old Lincoln High.

- Wow. I mean, I guess that makes sense.

You always did have a thing for history.

- Yeah, it gave me more predictable hours

than being a detective.

- So, do you ever miss the force?

- Eh, yes and no, you know.

But Allison here is more important

than the excitement of chasing down the bad guys.

Look, I'm sorry for the way things ended back-

- Michael, I've moved on.

- Yeah.

Well, hey, maybe we could grab coffee some time

and chat, catch up.

- I don't think that would be a very good idea.

- Let's get out of here.

Wow, it is getting late.

You know, this picnic is not gonna eat itself.

- Wow, okay.

You know what?

Actually, we probably should get going.

It's getting kind of late, so.

- Oh, yeah, no worries.

- Okay. All right then.

- It's this way, remember?

- Right.

It's this way.

- All right, you ready?

Let's go.

Tickle, tickle, tickle.

- That was awkward.

- Oh, you felt awkward?

- Yeah.

- Okay, you weren't even there half the time.

And where'd you run off to anyways?

- I was there in spirit.

- You were there...

Okay, that literally means nothing to me.

I really could have used your help back there, you know,

like point man, wingman.

- Wingwoman.

- Wingwoman.

Okay, yeah, sure.

Wingwoman.

Just be there next time.

- You going to answer your phone?

- Where did you even get a popsicle?

- Hope, I have something important

that I need to talk to you about.

- Really? - Who is it?

- Well that sounds familiar because I tried

setting up a meeting with you three days ago.

- Who is it?

Please, it'll only take a minute.

I promise.

This won't take very long.

- Right, call me again, and I'm calling the police.

Hope.

- So who was that?

- I don't know. Spam caller.

- You tried setting up a meeting with a spammer?

What kind of job do you have?

- The kind of job where you don't abandon a friend

in an awkward conversation

just because you're feeling uncomfortable.

Okay, okay.

- Yeah, man.

Hope's not at the address you gave me.

Her company car is.

- Ring her up, dude.

- I tried.

She's not taking my calls.

Does she have any family members that you're aware of?

- Uh, just her daddio.

No one else.

- All right, let's track him down.

- Okay.

Hope.

So I just discovered that Langdon

is 100% owned by none other than Dr. David. Jakes.

- Interesting.

So that means that the missing equipment

originated from the company owned by the same person

authorizing the transaction.

Exactly.

- Send over those documents.

- Okay, will do.

- What are you doing?

- Oh, just a project from the office.

But I'm done now, so what's up?

- So what do you to to do tomorrow?

- Actually, I thought about going to visit

my mom's grave site.

It's been a while.

- That was really sweet of you

to take your mother's maiden name in her memory.

- I mean, it was more than that, you know?

By that time, I just, I didn't want to be a Kerney anymore.

- Don't you think it's time

you go talk things through with your dad?

- You know, honestly, I don't think

I'm really ready for that yet, okay?

I just want to relax this week.

Hi, Mom.

It's been a while.

I brought you some flowers.

Your favorite.

- Hello, Hope.

- Hi, Dad.

- How long have you been back?

I didn't know.

- I just got into town.

I'm staying with Stephanie for a while.

I was going to stop by just to say hi.

- It's been a long time since you've been home.

- There's not really much of a reason with Mom gone.

- Look, Hope, I'd really like to have a talk with you.

There's some things I need to explain.

Won't you ever forgive me?

- I don't know, Dad.

Should I forgive you?

- Hello, honey.

I've really made a mess of things since you left us.

- What do you have?

- Okay, I'm gonna give you a freebie.

I tracked her location.

- How'd you do that?

- I was able to hack into her cell phone GPS.

Looks like she's back in her hometown.

- Can you transfer the tracking capability to my phone?

- Can Mjolnir be wielded only by the one who is worthy?

- I have no idea what you're talking about.

- Of course you don't.

And obviously the answer is yes.

- Just send it to me.

This isn't working.

We need a different way to track her down.

- So what is it that you wanted to talk to me about?

- I know I was too hard on you after your mother died.

- Hard on me?

You were terrible.

You were strict before,

but afterward I felt like a prisoner.

I mean, I couldn't wait to leave for college.

- Well, after your mom passed,

I was just out of my mind with grief.

I was worried sick I'd lose my only girl.

That's the only reason why I lied to you.

- Lied to me?

Lied about what?

I...

Michael didn't want to break up with you.

- What? What are you saying?

- I told him that if he just slowed things down

that I'd help him make detective on the force.

I mean, as police chief, I knew that I had the ability

to make that happen faster.

- How could you?

- It was only supposed to be for a short time, Hope.

It was his decision to join the military.

- Yeah, where he met and eventually married another woman.

- I am so, so sorry.

- Yeah.

Sorry doesn't change anything, does it?

- Oh my, I didn't realize you had company.

- It's okay. I was just leaving.

- Hope. - No.

- Bob, I'm sorry.

I didn't know your daughter was here.

- It's okay.

It's a surprise visit.

- Hey. - Hey.

- Oh, can you add your number to my phone?

- Add my number?

What, you got a new phone?

- It's a work thing.

- You have a weird job.

- Thanks.

- I didn't save my page, hm.

- Yeah, I was just about to call you.

Yeah, I'm not, I'm not gonna

be able to meet you this afternoon.

No, I have to help my neighbor with something.

Mm-hmm. Oh, absolutely.

Yes, we will.

I'll call you right after we're finished.

Okay.

- I'm sorry.

Hey, someone was just following me.

Following you? What do you mean?

I don't know, in an SUV.

But I guarantee it's related to Jakes and Darthon.

He's been calling me and now this.

- Okay, this is getting serious.

Jakes is a powerful man.

You clearly are onto something and he knows it.

You need to be careful.

- Careful is my middle name.

- I'm afraid I know you better than that.

Are you forgetting all those summers we spent together

at the lake house when you were a kid?

Something about a leaky fishing boat.

- Okay, okay, okay.

I get the point.

You don't have to go into details.

I have to go.

- Okay, remember, watch out for yourself.

- Steph?

This is ridiculous.

Who are you?

What do you want?

Let go!

- Who was that?

And what are you doing with a frying pan?

- Once again, I really could have used your help here.

- Well, honestly, it's kind of hard to help

when you don't tell me

what's actually happening in your life.

- Now is not the time for that.

Who's going to go close the door?

- Right behind you.

- Right behind me?

That means I'm going to go first.

- Point man, wingwoman.

- Steph? - Yeah.

- Are you scared?

- Living the dream.

- Living the dream?

- Okay, I'm calling the police.

- No, wait, just wait.

- What do you mean, wait?

Some lunatic was attacking us

and we have no idea if he's coming back.

I'm calling.

- Wait, I think they're from Darthon.

They've been following me.

- Following you?

Why would some goon from work be following you?

- I don't know.

- You going to tell me what's actually going on here?

- Okay, I was fired last week, okay?

And ever since then, my former boss

has been harassing me nonstop.

- That was your boss?

- No, probably not.

It was just somebody he sent.

- I'm calling the police.

I thought you were on vacation.

- I am, just a permanent vacation.

- Oh, God, I have caused so much pain

with my lies and actions.

My only daughter doesn't want anything to do with me.

Help me to show your love to Hope

in the same way you've always loved me.

Please bring healing to my family.

- Hi, Michael.

I'll get Hope.

It's for you.

Wingwoman?

No wingwoman.

- Wingwoman?

- It's just...

You know what, never mind.

How can I help you, Michael?

- I heard you had a break-in last night.

- How did you find that out?

Oh, Steph told you.

- No.

No, I still have friends on the force.

Actually, one called me earlier today

when he saw the police report, so.

- Okay.

- So you going to invite me in?

- No, we're actually really busy tonight,

so I appreciate you...

- Falcon.

You failed.

- What are you talking about?

- Your partner, Brutus was supposed to bring Hope to me,

and now the clock is ticking.

- Well, Brutus is the one who wiped out.

He's the one who broke into her house, not me.

- Look, I paid you a lot of money to make this happen.

So that makes you responsible.

- I don't know what to tell you, man.

- Then let me tell you.

You and your partner have exactly 24 hours

to get Hope Howard to me or I'm going to come looking for you.

It's in your best interest to tell me you heard me.

- I heard you.

That wasn't very nice.

- So that's it.

That's how it all happened.

- I don't know.

Just doesn't make any sense.

- Okay, well, it doesn't have to make sense.

Facts are the facts.

Some guy broke in here last night

and tried to grab me until I stopped him.

End of story.

So, Michael, why are you really here?

- Oh. - Okay.

- Hope, we're friends, okay?

I care about what happens to my friends.

- Okay, Michael, I spoke to my father

and he told me that he convinced you to break up with me.

Why didn't you fight for me back then?

- I don't know.

I guess I was a coward.

I'm sorry for that.

But I really did think you had other plans.

- You ran off and enlisted.

- Yeah, and you ran off to college

on your fancy scholarship.

You know,

when my wife was killed by a drunk driver,

anger consumed me for months.

And I finally realized that forgiveness

doesn't just benefit the other person.

It benefits me because it frees me

from the bondage of bitterness.

I just hope we can still be friends.

- Just friends.

- I'll take it.

- Are you all right?

- Oh, yes, just a cut.

- I came by to remind you that your three year physical

is due within the month.

- Oh, I should have never agreed to that

as a term of employment.

- Well, apparently you were fine with it

when you accepted your promotion to a VP role.

- Well, it's completely unnecessary.

My health is of no one else's concern.

I am A-okay.

- Within the month.

I've got some good news.

- I could really use some good news right now.

- Okay, if you can get a current copy of the company policy

on how things are purchased

along with the original paperwork of the missing equipment,

you've got a great case.

- Really?

That's great news.

- Now I'm assuming that you don't have

a copy of the documents with you?

- No, but I do have a friend on the inside who's helping me.

- Great. Very resourceful, as always.

Okay, well I'll let you go.

Thanks for your help.

- Bye.

- So how can I help?

- What do you mean?

- Tell me what to do.

- Steph, I told you I'm fine.

- Look, I know you're gathering evidence on your boss

and I know I can help.

- I don't know, it could be dangerous.

- More dangerous than a stalker

breaking into my parents' house in the middle of the night?

- Okay, that's a valid point.

But you really want to help me?

- I do.

- Okay, sit down.

- So what are we looking at?

- Okay, these are purchase requisitions,

purchase orders, and invoices.

The only problem is I need originals

of all of these authorizing documents.

- Why?

- Because it's too easy to alter a copy.

- How do you tell the difference

between an original and a copy?

- Okay, a purchase requisition

consists of a triplicate copy.

This is what triggers a legitimate request for purchase

according to company policy.

Within Darthon, the white original goes to purchasing,

the pink original goes to finance,

and the yellow original goes to the one making the purchase.

- So far I'm following.

- Before it's separated and distributed by purchasing,

it needs proper authorization.

- Right. Now this is a blank purchase requisition,

but that is where the authorizing signature would go.

Okay, this is a printout related

to the physical equipment inventory that we just performed.

The only problem is there are several purchases on here

that were ordered, received, and paid for,

but they don't exist anywhere at Darthon.

- Sounds like a problem. - Yeah.

So what I know so far is the company

the missing equipment was purchased from

is owned solely by Dr. David Jakes, the guy who fired me.

That has to be more than a coincidence.

- Oh, but not only that, he's the one

who signed for the missing equipment on behalf of Darthon.

- Wow. Sounds criminal to me.

- Steph. - Mm.

- I was let go because he overran the budget.

And he overran the budget

because he was making all of these unauthorized purchases.

- And then he fired you to cover up his trail.

- Exactly.

What's that?

- It's the key fob to Darthon.

I forgot to return it.

- Hm.

- Hey, Danielle.

- All right, what else can I do to help?

- Can you get me a current copy of Darthon's policy manual?

- Sure, that's easy.

I'll email you a copy.

What else?

- Um, yeah, there's also a stack of documents

that we had when we discussed the missing equipment.

It's in the bottom left drawer of my desk.

Can you just grab those and hold onto them for me

till I can pick them up?

- I'll try.

That might be tricky,

but I'll come in early tomorrow morning.

I still have the copy of your office key you gave me.

- Great.

All right, well just let me know what you find.

- Will do.

Got to go.

- I have Jakes' address.

I'm just gonna go check it out.

- What are you hoping to find?

- I don't know.

I guess I'll figure it out when I get there.

- Well count me in. - Hm.

- How do you know his address anyway?

- Believe it or not, he's on my Christmas card list.

- Aw. - Stop.

Let's go.

- Ca-caw!

- Shh. Really?

There's no ca-caw.

Come on.

Was that necessary?

- It was fun.

- Ssh.

Get off me.

Ssh.

- Okay, all right.

Ooh. - Oh. Steph.

- Wow, look at that computer setup.

Looks expensive.

- Yeah.

- Here, let me see.

- What could he be doing with that much processing power?

- Whoa.

- Here, let me see.

The lens cap was on. - Huh.

Wait a minute.

- What do you see?

- Sigmann Technologies.

- What's that mean?

- I think it must be the original supplier.

From the missing equipment?

- Yeah, I remember seeing the name on the inventory list.

But they sell super computers

used for high level processing

like running drug correlations, that sort of thing.

- Why would he go through so much trouble

to install the computer at his house instead of Darthon?

- I don't know.

What are you up to, Jakes?

Hey, I think Jake's has the missing equipment

from Darthon at his house.

- And how exactly did you discover this?

Um.

- Hope?

- Okay, maybe I spied on him

through the back window of his house.

- Hope, I thought you were supposed to be more careful.

Okay, I have to go.

- Uh-oh.

- What? What's wrong?

- My phone's missing.

I must have accidentally dropped it at Jakes' house.

- Oh, Steph, please tell me you're kidding.

- I wish I were.

Sorry.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Hold on.

Unbelievable.

- Who's that?

- That would be Pam Stevens, director of HR.

- Oh.

- Oh, and it looks like she's getting

pretty comfy with the doctor.

I had no idea.

- No wonder you didn't get a fair shake

in your exit interview.

- Exactly.

She tried to shut me down when I brought up

the irregularities with the audit.

- That Pam.

- Danielle, I didn't know you were here already.

- Yeah, I came in a little early today.

- You looking for something?

- Yeah, just some files regarding a project I'm working on.

- I'm sorry, I have orders

that no one is allowed into this office.

Something about a pending lawsuit.

No one's allowed in that office until, well, ever.

Yeah, not even tomorrow, okay?

- Oh, I see.

Well I've got what I need, so I guess we're good.

- Whoa.

And nothing's to be removed from the office

until further notice.

- So I can't take these files for review?

- No, ma'am, I'm sorry.

- All right, well I'll just go ahead

and put these back then.

- What'd you find out?

- She's moving around a lot,

but now she's back at her friend's house.

- What are you waiting for?

Tell Brutus to use whatever force is necessary,

but don't hurt her.

I need her alive.

- We're booking it, but the stakes are a lot higher

now that the cops are involved.

- You realize I can call somebody else?

- And you realize it'd be very easy for me

to make Darthon aware

of your extracurricular equipment purchases?

- Okay, I'm not gonna argue with you.

How much?

- 10K and we'll jam.

Anything else just isn't worth it.

- Don't make me regret this.

- Hey, did you find anything out?

- Yes. I just emailed you the policy manual.

Yes.

All right, what about the documents on my desk?

- Sorry, I tried,

but security stopped me from taking anything.

Something about a lawsuit.

- Lawsuit?

I haven't filed one, at least not yet.

- Well it sounds like they're expecting one.

- Listen, if I don't get the originals

of those authorizing documents,

I don't have a case either way.

- I'm sorry I couldn't help.

- No, you have done more than enough.

I'll figure something out.

Bye.

- David.

You're bleeding.

- I'm okay.

- What's going on?

- I said I'm okay, okay?

- No, you're not.

- I said I'm okay.

Just let it go.

Yo.

- So, what?

It's only been a few hours.

- Falcon, tell Brutus it's now.

Chill, man.

Okay? Tell your brother it's no sweat.

- It's me, okay?

You doofus, it's me.

I'm the one with the disease.

It's me.

Oh, man, that's heavy.

Why didn't you tell me before?

Hello?

- Okay, I got the company policy

and it clearly states what Jakes is doing isn't authorized.

I'll send it to you right now.

- You've made good progress.

How are those authorizing documents coming along?

- Yeah, my friend wasn't able to get those.

- I really think you need those to solidify your case.

- Maybe there's a way I can get back into Darthon.

- Okay, I'm sure you don't mean breaking and entering.

- Well, maybe there's a way I can enter without breaking in.

- That is a terrible idea and I must caution you against it.

It would be catastrophic to your case if you were caught.

- I know, I was just thinking about it, okay?

- Seriously, Hope, you are not invincible.

Okay, yes, I know that.

But I have to go. Bye.

Hey, is Hope here?

I need to talk to her about something.

- Come on in.

Those for me?

- No, sorry, for Hope.

Peace offering.

- Wait here, I'll go find her.

Um, Hope's not here.

- Oh, um, any idea where she might have gone?

- I'm not sure.

She didn't say anything to me

and now she isn't answering her phone.

- She's been acting kind of strange

ever since she's been back.

I mean, look, I know we've had our issues.

But I don't know, she just

doesn't seem like the same Hope.

- I don't know if I'm supposed to say anything,

but she lost her job last week.

- What?

- She's been looking for evidence against her former boss,

evidence she says is in her office back at Darthon.

- Michael.

- Hope, whatever you're up to, don't.

- I don't know what you're talking about.

- Stephanie told me you lost your job.

- That's none of your business.

- Look, I can help you figure this out, all right?

You don't have to do this alone.

So just turn your car around and come back home.

- I have to go.

- Oh, this isn't good.

- What do you mean?

- She's not thinking straight right now,

that's what I mean.

I have to go find her before she does something she'll regret.

- But you don't even know where she went.

- Okay, you said the documents she needs

are in the office, right?

- Check.

- Okay, so she has to be on her way there.

- I don't know.

I'll find her somehow.

- I've got a better idea.

- Yeah? And what's that?

- After the break-in, Hope and I

set up location sharing on our phones.

I can track her location from anywhere.

Looks like you were right.

I think she's on her way to her office building.

- All right, I'll be back in a little while.

- Right behind you.

- Where do you think you're going?

- I'm coming. Wingwoman.

- What is with this wingwoman thing?

- You're the point man, I'm the wingwoman.

Ba da bing, ba da boom.

Why do you still look confused?

- No, no.

I don't need a wingwoman.

- Does your phone track Hope's location?

- Of course not.

- Then I'm coming.

- All right, you know the risks, okay?

Because this could get really dangerous.

- She's my friend too.

I'm coming.

- All right, let's go.

- Long day.

- I agree.

Hopefully tomorrow won't be so crazy.

- Tomorrow's Saturday.

Oh right.

I guess it won't be so crazy then.

I'll see you next week.

Sounds good.

I'll see you then.

- What?

- Listen to me.

You need to get out of there right now.

- I am, relax.

Hope.

- Get off me.

I know who you are.

You broke into our house.

- Yeah, we got her.

- Okay, keep out of sight.

I'll be there in 20 minutes.

- So who is this guy anyway?

- His name's Dr. David Jakes, director of R&D.

He's been with Darthon for 18 years.

He received a VP promotion eight years ago.

Looks like his expertise is in developing

and bringing leading-edge medications to market.

- Sounds like the real deal

before he went off the deep end, huh?

- Okay, take this next exit to head north on 275.

- How close are we?

ETA is 18 minutes.

- Yeah, what do you say we make that 15?

- Falcon?

- You got it.

- Where's Brutus?

- He's here.

- What'd you do to her?

- She's fine, it's just a sedative.

- How long before it wears off?

- I don't know, man.

Like 15 or 20 minutes.

So pay up. $10,000.

Is the money in the case?

- First you're going to help me

get her into the executive conference room.

Come on.

- All right, pay up.

- It's all there.

Hey, can you see exactly

where she's at in the building?

- No, but I visited her office last year.

If we get inside, I think I can find it.

- All right, let's move.

- Where am I?

- It's good to finally see you again, Hope.

- Help!

Someone help me!

- Quiet. No one can hear you.

- Where are we?

- You wouldn't help me willingly,

so I had to take matters into my own hands.

Relax, you're gonna be fine.

- What do you want from me?

- If you had taken any of my calls,

you would know what I want.

- What? You fired me.

- You put your nose where it didn't belong.

- So you admit it?

That was your motivation for all of this.

- It's more complicated than that.

- What? What?

- Hey, that's the guy who broke into my parents' house.

- Where's Hope?

I don't know what you're talking about, man.

- Where is she?

Tell me, and we give you the money.

- She's in the executive conference by Jakes' office.

- What floor?

How do we get there?

- Figure it out.

- How do we get there?

- Fourth floor.

Go up and go left.

You can't miss it.

- I find out you're messing with me

and I will hunt you down.

- Relax, it's an antiseptic.

It's been a while since I've administered a blood draw.

- Why? Why all of this?

- I'm dying, Hope.

I have a cancer similar to the one you survived as a child.

I've exhausted every other option.

- What does this have to do with me?

- As a long-term survivor, your antibodies are my best bet.

All I need is a pint of blood.

That's it, nothing more,

and you're free to go.

- Excuse me, what are you doing?

- A woman's been abducted.

She's being held in the conference room on the fourth floor.

- Detective Michael Hansen. Retired.

- Detective?

Police detective?

- Yeah, this is my partner.

You're going to need to let us through.

- I'm sorry, I don't think I can do that.

- Look, it's our friend Hope.

If you don't let us through,

there's no telling what's going to happen.

- Hope?

Hope Howard?

- Yes. - Yeah.

- 10-4, sir.

What's our objective?

- My partner and I are going up, all right?

I need you to stay here and call it in.

- Here. You might need these.

- Thanks.

Tell them to get here as fast as they can.

- Yes, sir.

APB, we have an unknown suspect in possible possession

of an apparent missing person.

Be advised, the perpetrator may be armed and dangerous.

Send all available units to the scene of the crime.

Identify location.

- That location is Dartmouth... Darthon Research Lab.

Repeat, Darthon Research Laboratories.

Please confirm Darthon.

- Yeah, Darthon, not the other. Darthon.

Copy, Darthon Research Laboratories.

- Thank you.

10-4.

- Sorry, Hope, but you're not leaving

until I get what I need.

Stop shaking.

I don't want to hurt you.

- Detective, huh?

- Hey, I said detective, retired.

- I didn't realize we were partners.

And why do you still carry a badge?

- I don't know.

A reminder of a previous life, I guess.

- I thought he said left.

- Just follow me.

- How do you even know where to go?

- Instinct.

Okay.

6-11, what's your 20?

- 10-23 on scene.

Copy, unit on scene.

- Right this way.

The perp is holed up in a fourth floor office.

Possible hostage situation.

- What are you doing?

You said you'd let me go after you got what you needed.

You already drew my blood.

- You didn't really think I was gonna let you live

with what you know, did you?

- Why are you so angry?

- I didn't ask for this.

- How is that my fault?

- It's not.

It's fate.

Life isn't fair.

Sometimes bad things happen.

- No, you always have a choice.

- You can't control it, and neither can I.

Look, people are going to use you and abuse you.

Now you need to learn to start fighting for yourself

because no one is going to.

And in this case, you were better off

just leaving well enough alone.

- Help!

Someone help me!

- Over here, hurry, hurry.

- Hurry.

- What do you think I'm doing?

There's like 50 keys on this thing.

- Instinct.

- Get away from her.

Move.

- Jakes, you don't have to do this.

- I said move.

- Look, nothing you've done at this point

is beyond repair, all right?

So just put the gun down and I can help you

with whatever it is that you need.

- Well, it's too late for that.

You know as well as I do,

I can't let you leave here.

- Look, the police are gonna be here any minute, okay?

Just work with me.

It doesn't have to end this way.

- You.

There's a blood collection bag in that cooler over there.

Bring it to me.

Go. The cooler, right over there.

Bring the cooler to me.

Hurry up.

Come on, come on, I don't have all day.

Let's go.

What are you doing?

- It's okay.

I'm gonna walk it over to you slowly, all right?

Nice and easy.

- Set it on the corner of the table and you back up.

Back up.

Back up.

- It's okay.

- I said back up.

Police, let me see your hands.

Drop the gun.

Drop the gun.

Show me your hands. Turn around.

Turn around. Turn around.

Hands behind your back.

Everybody okay?

- Hope, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean for it to go that far.

- You don't have to be afraid to die.

Jakes.

I can forgive you because I've been forgiven.

- Thanks, I owe you one.

- It's been my pleasure, sir.

- You found me.

- Yeah.

Well, I figured last time I didn't fight for you.

I didn't want to make that same mistake again.

- Let's get you home.

- Isaiah 61:1 says, "The spirit of the Lord God is upon me

"because the Lord has anointed me

"to preach good tidings to the poor.

"He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted,

"to proclaim liberty to the captives,

"and the opening of the prison to those who are bound."

Amen.

Amen.

- With us today are some special friends of ours,

Bob Kerney and his daughter Hope.

I've asked them to come share a little of their story,

so let's make them feel welcome.

- My story is one of profound grace.

It's about a father, an imperfect father

who loved his daughter

but who made mistakes that wounded her deeply.

It's about a daughter who, despite being hurt,

was able to forgive fully.

- You know, it's also about a perfect Heavenly Father

who sent his son to heal those wounds.

He restored my broken heart

and he freed me from my prison of bitterness.

You know, Jesus died and he rose again

to redeem each and every one of us of our sins.

But you know the only thing he asks in return

is that we forgive those who have hurt us.

That seems like a pretty small price in comparison.

You know, I once heard that forgiving others

and letting go of bitterness is the beginning of healing.

It also allows for new things to flourish.

And now I know how true that really is.

So, you know, I was really glad to hear

that Jakes is expected to make a full recovery.

- Yeah, it's truly a miracle.

- So what do you think's going to happen to him?

- I don't know.

I mean, the guy's committed some serious felonies, you know?

But the fact that you're not willing to press charges

counts in his favor.

- I mean, when I found out he was doing all of that

just to save his own life,

it just seemed like the least I could do, you know?

- Yeah.

- Come on, let's go.

You know you don't have to come with me, right?

- Yeah, I know.

- I thought you hated running.

Welcome to the new Michael.

I'm ready to experience some new things.

- Yeah? In that outfit?

- What's wrong with this?

It's great. It's perfect.

Steph?

Steph?

Pocket dial from Steph.

- Ugh, those are the worst.

- Not all of them.

- Hey, wait up.

- Come on, let's go.

What's the rush?

- This is a jog, not a walk.

Come on, old man.

Cut me some slack, will ya?

It's been a while.
