All language subtitles for the_sentinel_s02e11_black_or_white

Tonight, on The Scent. Why go after the
Churchill?

You and I have both given up on our
government. You use a bullhorn and I use

dead nigger.

He's lost his nerve, hasn't he?

Because of the bracket bomb, right? You
say we're not handling this right.

What would you like us to do?

Stop treating it like it's a local
crime.

This was a simple plan to make some
money, and you've turned it into some

of a skinhead vendetta. Jim, I can help
him out here. That place blows, you're

going to end up in another zip code.

Talk to me, Tiger. What do we have in
there?

I've never seen anything like this
before.

It's going to blow it anyway.

I guess we all go.

In the jungles of Peru, the fight for
survival heightened his senses.

Now, Detective James Ellison is a
sentinel in the fight for justice.

Seeing before others see.

Sensing what others can't.

An ever -vigilant watchman.

In the war against crime.

Yeah.

now people, keep it up sweet

Remember Mount Zion in three days.

And this year, we take the cup.

Y 'all take care. Go now.

So what?

So what? So you can like have a
conversation.

I know your type.

She's got a PhD in Asian studies and a
minor in some bizarre Malaysian death

ritual. So what's wrong with that?

What do I look like? Your couple's
hotline here, huh?

Besides, when that Jesse finds out what
you're up to, she's probably going to

want to make her case study in some
weird ceremonial body -piercing ritual.

That's a bad thing?

Come on.

Let's get on.

In fact, there's nothing left.

Not when they use plastic.

We got frags here the size of puff
wheat.

Smells like C4.

Oil -based residue.

Like some kind of petroleum jelly.

Damn, you're right.

They use pet gel as a plasticizer in
Semtex.

Tends to bleed.

Semtex? What? He has a checked form of
C4.

Half the chair has packages in your
view, that kind of stuff.

What the hell is an exotic explosive
like that doing in Cascade?

Tell me, Detective, uh, Ellison.

Jim Ellison, Blair Sandberg, this is
Dirk Lawson.

Dirk is up here to run field ops, not a
tagger to ride in a desk.

We're lucky to get Dirk. He's on loan
from the Marine Bomb Unit down at Camp

Pendleton. Jim here was an Army Ranger.
Nice to meet you. I'm just here until

the captain gets his sea legs back.

Any chance this is related to that wave
of arson?

Most of that was in the south.

Over 50 black churches in the past two
years.

Those are fires, though, right?

Maybe. But up here, they're like
explosives.

Ruben Diggs, this is your car, right?

I'm afraid so.

A .W .C.

What's it mean?

Simon, you gotta check this out.

Did we get in here, sir?

I'm sorry, no.

I lost the keys last night when the bomb
went off.

Can we get an opener over here?

notice to all the mud races white men
built this nation and we will purge it

its multi -racial paint one down eight
to go sign the aryan warriors command

awc what's this one down eight to go
until last night there were nine african

-american churches in cascade now there
are eight

Now, these so -called Aryan warriors
surfaced two years ago in Mississippi,

they're nothing more than bigots and
homegrown terrorists.

Now, Captain Banks of the Cascade Police
Department must take immediate action.

The other churches... Oh, man, does that
woman know how to work the media?

Yeah, well, with candidates, it's always
personal.

What do you mean?

She used to work with us.

That woman used to be a cop?

Yeah, juvenile division.

About a year ago, she just quit. Didn't
say why.

Went to work for this new African
alliance.

And crossing the country ever since,
shaking her fist.

Simon, we've got a problem.

Email from the internet.

Moore Bull from the Aryan Command.

We were using an encryption program to
recover some lost files.

Found this email had been downloaded.

And? We found it in Larson's box.

He denied knowing anything about it.

But no question, he pulled it off the
web.

I don't believe this.

Look, Joel, I know the past couple of
months have been tough on you. But if

these wackos are out there blowing up
churches and Dirk is involved in this, I

need a man out in the field that I can
trust.

I'm sorry, Simon.

I just can't.

Joel.

He's lost his nerve, hasn't he?

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

Come on, Jim, I'm not blind.

It's because of the bracket bomb, right?

I mean, not that I'd blame him.

And what you guys tell me, he barely
made it out with his life.

Yeah.

Taggart's had a bit of a hard time
fixing that bomb.

Really shook him off, and he's had a
hard time adjusting.

Did he see the department shrink?

He went to the mandatory three sessions,
but he didn't want to admit he needed

counseling. Maybe I should talk to him.
No, I don't think so.

Why not? Come on. I've been in and out
of therapy since I got out of my

Anxiety and panic attacks are a normal
state of being for me.

You do not know how I feel.

You just listened to him for a second,
huh?

Joel, fear is not about lack of ability.

Every show that I've ever been through
has talked to me about the blind spot.

And what is that?

It's a condition common to creative
types, such as yourself.

It happened to this anthropological
student that I knew. He was out doing

research in Nepal and an avalanche hit.
So he goes out with the rescue team and

they come across this rope bridge.

2 ,000 foot drop, Joel.

So he starts making his way across and
all of a sudden he locks up.

Sherpa guy comes up behind him and he
grabs him by the arm and he says, this

not about you.

You hear what I'm saying? It's not about
you.

And then what happened?

Then he made his way across.

You see what I'm saying, Joel, is it's
mind over matter.

You still know this guy?

Yeah, it was me.

Really? Yeah.

Come on, let me tell you what that man
do.

Hey, well, I've been looking all over
for you.

Larson didn't show up for roll call.

I called down to Pendleton and checked
out his marine unit.

They were stationed in Lebanon.

Diffused dozens of bombs made with
Semtex.

Simon, a lot of guys on the bomb squad
could have worked with Semtex. How many

of them were born and raised in
Mississippi?

Where the resistance started.

Here's the kicker.

I had I .A. pull his bank account.

Dirk made a deposit of $10 ,000 in cash
the other day.

That's a lot of overtime.

Enough for us to get a search warrant.

We'll check out his houseboat, Pier 17.

This is Blaster.

Awaiting word.

Number two goes tonight.

Counting down to the big one.

Good.

With all due respect, sir, I think we
should downplay the firepower here.

Are you kidding me?

This guy's a Marine. We don't know what
he could have in there. When do I get to

meet you and the Aryan brothers?

We'll meet in Valhalla, under the Iron
Cross.

I don't understand.

You're not supposed to.

Just download these numbers and do as
you're told.

I don't want to spook this guy. Now let
me go in and talk to him, okay?

You just sit tight here.

Jim Ellison.

We need you to come down and talk to I
.A.

I can't, Jim.

You just have to trust me. There's more
to this than you know.

All the more reason for us to deal with
this now.

Okay, but we do it here.

In just a second.

Day two, and another church destroyed.

If I was you, I'd want to ask Captain
Banks and the Cascade Police Department

why they have not yet brought in the
feds.

I thought we had the place staked out.
We did have it staked out.

Squad received a report of an explosion
on the next block.

They went over to check it out.
Evidently, the guy got in here and set

When they got back, the whole place blew
up.

Maybe we should check out Dirk's old
marine unit.

Maybe you should, since we don't have
Dirk.

Simon, I did the best I could. I want
these bastards out of my city.

Let me talk to her, okay? We used to
work pretty close together.

What's wrong, Bank? You can't face me?

Why should he?

It just looks like you're doing a whole
lot of grandstanding here, Candace. No,

I'm trying to get to the crew.

Do you want to talk?

Or is this about some soundbite from the
6 o 'clock news?

You say we're not handling this right.
What would you like us to do?

Stop treating it like it's a local
crime.

We're not treating it like it's a local
crime.

Eldon Russell from the alcohol, tobacco,
and firearms is flying in from D .C.

tonight.

Why didn't you think so?

Well, Captain Banks is going to make an
announcement, all right? But media's

been a little preoccupied shooting
coffins.

Well, you know we do what we have to to
get their attention.

Looks like it's working. The feds are
coming.

We would have called them in anyway,
whether you were here or not.

Come on, Candy, when are you going to
get real?

About what?

You were a cop.

We were on patrol together for a year.

I mean, now you're acting like some kind
of... Agitator?

Yeah.

You remember I grew up in Alabama,
right?

There was this old man there.

Reverend Green.

Reverend Green gave me my first book of
hymns when I was six.

Taught me how to read when my mama died.

That old man set me straight.

I was on the force for two years.

When this clipping came.

Reverend Green was in the church working
late one night when somebody threw a

bunch of beer bottles full of gasoline
inside.

He was burned so bad you could barely
add to his body.

Kenny, I'm sorry.

I didn't know.

Yeah.

Well, after that, I just quit.

Join the Alliance.

And now I go from state to state just
tracking the fires.

Never thought I'd be back here.

Why not work from the inside?

I mean, you were a good cop.

So were you.

But two more churches are destroyed.

Sometimes a gun and a shield are just
not enough, you know?

having a problem with some girlies.
Yeah.

You know, I'm your man. I could help you
out.

Really? They might forget about you.

Thanks a lot. Thanks, Jim.

You know, there's this guy on the old
Sullivan show.

He did this act with plates and sticks.

He'd try and keep three or four of these
plates spinning on these sticks, then

add another plate, then add another
stick. The idea was not to break a

right? But eventually, one...

Play always hit the stage.

You see where I'm going with this?

Yeah.

I got you.

Hello, Detective Ellison.

Joe.

Thank God I got you.

Katie, what's wrong?

I came back to the office to do some
work.

The phone rang.

And the voice at the other end said that
if I hung up, this thing would go off.

Hold on a second.

Joe, Captain Banks, pick up the phone.

What thing are you talking about?

He told me to open the top drawer on my
desk.

He said if I put the receiver down, the
bomb would go off.

And I'm scared.

Miss Blake, this is Captain Taggart of
the bomb squad.

Is there a timer?

Yes.

It's at 532.

Joel, roll on this now.

Jim, you got this covered?

Candace, listen to me.

The bomb squad is on their way. Your
officer is still in 13th and 3rd. That's

less than six blocks away.

Just stay calm.

The door's clear. All right, let's move
out. All right. Right behind you, Joel.

Blair, you've got to stay here.

Jim, I can help him out here.

If that place blows, you're going to end
up in another zip code.

Let's go.

I just

want

you to relax now. We're going to get you
out of here.

Okay.

Where's your bomb tank?

He's standing right beside you.

He's more scared than I am.

Joel, this is not about you, okay? Now,
you must cross that bridge.

I'm going to take the receiver from your
hand, and I want you to step aside,

okay? Jim, are you sure?

I'm positive.

We've got the best bomb tech in the
business right here.

Yes, he does it.

All right, you just settle down.

All right?

Okay, you can go outside now.

What do you mean, no?

You said it yourself.

I was a cop, right?

No one can do this to me.

That's more like it, Candace. Come on,
put it down.

You know, we got one minute, 30 seconds
left.

Where are we going?

I don't know. I can't.

Let's move.

I put this down. No, no, no.

It may have a mercury switch inside it.
If you lower it, man, it'll blow.

Boy, fear kills.

That's right.

What did you do with Brackett's bomb?

You had that maneuver to save your life.

Hey, fellas.

Russell's flight got socked into Dulles
last night. He won't be in until about

five.

Forensics found this hidden on Dirk's
boat.

A police file and a probation report.

Anything from time to those bombings?
Well, yeah, I think we're... Hello,

Candace.

Glad you made it out okay.

Yeah.

Look, I, uh... About yesterday, I never
got a chance to say thank you.

All of you.

Now, I was also hoping to get a chance
to speak to the agent from the ACF.

Oh, he won't be in until later.

Maybe you can bring me up to speed. Got
any new leads?

You know I can't do that. I can't take
the chance of this showing up on the

evening news. What do you want me to do,
apologize?

No, I want you to understand. That's my
name you're throwing around out there.

Fine.

I will deal with the agent myself.

I thought you said you were going to
talk to her.

I did.

I didn't say I'd convince her.

You know,

there was this guy on the Sullivan show.

He did this thing with plates and
sticks.

Don't you have some exams to grade or
something?

So, what is Jim coming back?

He's checking out that probation report
with Justice.

Where's the police file?

Take a look.

Wait a minute, man. This is an accident
report.

Yeah. Hector Vasquez, an auditor for the
city.

Died when his car went off a mountain
road.

What's he got?

This chimp's name is Axel Soles. He's
from Mississippi.

A dozen juvie raps and then he graduated
the home invasion.

One indictment for attempted murder that
was reduced to aggravated assault.

Spent three years in Huntsville where he
hooked up with the Aryan Brotherhood.

Been in and out of the slammer ever
since.

associated with a number of hate groups.
So, guess what?

I don't know what. He's going to be co
-hosting Geraldo next week?

He's Dirk's brother.

What? Actually, he's half -brother. They
have the same mother.

So, uh, where's this guy now?

Paroled six months ago.

Violated in the first week.

Pro -officer hasn't heard from him
since.

I risked my ass to get you a job right
out of jail, and this is how you repay

me? Chill out.

This is about making history.

What? By blowing churches? By killing
innocent people?

Nobody's died.

Not with one in mind.

Damn you!

I'm already looking at an IAD suspension
for not reporting your parole

violation. So how come you didn't?

I had to see how far you were into this.

Check your bank account.

What's that supposed to mean?

If anybody asks me, you're a co
-conspirator.

You planted that money.

I had to, for insurance.

Well, you're in this deeper than that
already.

By chasing Reichman, you left a trail
all over the Internet.

That's why the cops want your head.

What, Blaster?

I used your name to find this Reichman
character.

He's the one fronting the femtechs.

Your Reichman?

Afraid so, good buddy.

But it's not what you think.

Now you back off and we'll talk about
this.

I need you to hand me that gun.

Dirk, there's an explanation for this.

Yeah? Then you explain why you gave this
mental defective enough semtex to take

out half of downtown.

Look.

Look, I said back off!

Russell flies in this afternoon.

What do we have, gentlemen?

This is from the second church.

It's a circuit board from a timer that
was fused with a piece of glass.

It came from a standard industrial
detonator like they use on commercial

sites. You checked the demo companies?

Every last one of them.

They all use C4 and every kilo has been
accounted for, sir.

Fastness came in from the Pentagon.

Better check those demo companies again.

Larson had four guys working with him in
his bomb unit in Lebanon. All of them

used Semtex.

This one lives in Cascade.

Randy Echols, ex -Marine Lance Corporal.
He runs a company called All City

Demolition.

I won't be able to sound that.

Now there's a good job for you if you
were in hell.

Don't knock it.

Used brick.

One of these will sell for ten times the
price of a new brick.

Half the patios in Cascade came from
buildings that we wrecked. The city pays

you to wreck them, huh? It's quite some
business.

You're Mr. Eccles?

I'm Detective Allison with my partner,
Blair Thandberg. How you doing?

What do you want from me?

Axel solves.

Never seen him before.

You sure?

He's Dirk Larson's brother.

Well, I've seen Dirk around town.

Haven't mixed much since the Corps.

The kid, I don't know.

If you hear from Larson, let me know,
would you?

Sure thing.

Thanks.

What's up? You thinking about redoing
your patio?

Petroleum residue.

Stem tax?

So what? I mean, even if it is, all city
did the cleanup at the second church.

What is it? It's a key of some sort.

It's a Ford.

Reverend Diggs's?

Maybe.

Maybe they did the cleanup at the first
church as well.

In the last two years, Eccles' companies
had the demolition contracts on 90 % of

the city's own buildings, including the
old town hall.

What's so unusual about that?

Our city is one of the biggest demo
companies in Cascade. According to the

contracts, he underbids everybody by
30%. How does he make a profit?

Nobody knows.

What's all this have to do with the
black churches?

Simon, they just called from Pier 16.

It's Dirk Larson.

Give it a second, Gary.

One shot, close range.

Forensics found this when they rolled
the body.

It's a 9.

M9. Standard issue for the Marine Corps.

Eccles?

It'd be my first choice.

Did forensics search the body?

Yeah, but they didn't find anything.

Whoever it was apparently emptied all
his pockets before they dumped it.

Isn't that right?

Before Larson split, the boat just left
something into his boot.

That thing is waterlogged. You're not
going to be able to see anything on

Joel, take a look at this, will you?

Use your fingers.

It's a series of letters and numbers.

B6, H2, F1.

Maybe coordinates?

P .S. Agent Eldon Russell has agreed to
brief us as soon as he can, which should

be within the next hour.

Good. Maybe we'll give Agent Russell
something to come for.

You out of your freaking skull.

Told you to lose all this stuff.

Wait a minute.

You wanted cover, right?

Blow the church and the incinerator, you
said, and all you'd have to do was push

Rubble away.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, but nobody was
supposed to die.

Now, there's Dirk and the auditor, and
you're fixing to commit some kind of a

mass murder?

You're a psychopath.

No.

I'm a soldier in a war of national
liberation.

All that means nothing to me.

This was a simple plan to make some
money.

And you've turned it into some kind of a
skinhead vendetta.

Well, I'm telling you now that it's
finished.

Now, come on.

Let's go.

Each of these pins correspond to a map
coordinate

from the printout we pulled off of Dirk.

At every location, there was an arson
fire in a building that was to be torn

down by all city.

The scam worked like this.

Eccles bid $20 ,000 to demolish the
building that was formerly owned by the

Board of Education.

His competitors bid between $30 ,000 and
$35 ,000.

The day that the building is supposed to
come down, a fire mysteriously burns it

to the ground.

Eccles pays $5 ,000 to push away the
rubble.

Pockets 15K. He even sells the used
brick.

How come nobody else caught on to this?

The city auditor at the time was a guy
named Hector Vasquez.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. The guy who went
over Mount Cascade in his car.

Right. He was investigating Eccles at
the time.

His brakes failed.

But I still don't get the tie -in with
the churches.

Eccles was using the first two bombings
as a cover for something much bigger.

A demo that couldn't be taken down with
just fire.

Rhonda, give me the city controller.

Problem is, sir, the last coordinate on
that printout from Dirk, it's illegible.

Yeah, this is Captain Banks, Cascade PD.

I need a list of all the buildings that
were contracted for teardown by All

-City Demo.

Yeah, that's right.

And I need it yesterday.

Next time we'll get sacked, you give us
the Gulf Stream.

Well, the weather would have been the
same no matter what.

It's the locals.

PD Bomb Squad.

Heck? This is Agent Russell.

Captain Banks would be glad to see you.

He's got some new information for you.

Wants to meet you at the storefront that
got blown.

Corner of 13th and 3rd.

Ready, you boys?

Wait up.

Ms. Blake, Agent Russell from ATF.

You guys are here.

I'll pick you up outside Cascade PD in
five minutes.

Okay.

Ms. Blake?

Now it's rigged to blow if you move.

Start saying your prayers.

I don't understand how anyone can hate
as much as you do.

Oh, come on. Take your blinders off.

You and I have both given up on our
government. You use a bullhorn and I use

detonator. Why go after the churches?

What right do you have?

Worshiping a white man on a cross?

I suppose he that is of Nazareth has
blonde hair and blue eyes, right?

You'll know when you see him.

Randy Echols.

He thought he could use Axel. Looks like
Axel used him.

Russell and another ATF agent are
missing.

We sent out an APB.

What I'm wondering is why the
controller's office is taking so long.

Evidently, Vasquez pulled all the
demolition files. They have to go into

microfilm for backup.

It'll be them now.

Yeah, thanks.

What?

You're sure?

All right, thanks.

Guys, last month, all city won one of
the biggest contracts in state history.

The demolition of the old incinerator on
River Street. Million dollar job.

Incinerator? That's right behind Mount
Zion AME Church.

Wait a second.

Didn't Reverend Diggs say they were
having some kind of gospel meeting over

there? Whoa, what's tonight?

Thursday.

Another two hours, that place will be
full of people.

All right, everybody, listen up. I want
everything kept tight and locked up out

here. Keep all these people back.

Sandberg, hold on. Stay here.

Let's go check it.

You don't take the rear.

What?

Is he alive?

Yeah.

I'm going inside, sir.

Get on the headset.

Jim, what's going on?

Good God. Joe.

Semtex.

It's got to be 15 kilos or more.

Ready to blow.

How did you know?

It's a lucky guess. You think he can get
the blaster cap?

No, he rigged it right through the
tremolo switches.

There's a wire, buddy. There's a wire.

Talk to me, Tiger. What do we have in
there?

I've never seen anything like this
before.

Joe, use your training.

We can get through this, man.

You're going to be all right.

All right? You're in good hands.

You can do this, Joe.

He's up in the choir balcony.

I said it gets in multiple relay.

Just take one of them at a time.

Joel.

What happened?

It stopped.

Then it started again.

It's just like Brackett's bomb.

Let's see what he's going to do.

He's just like the storefront.

There's two wires connected to the
antenna.

He's going to blow it from the outside.

Can't you just cut the wire?

Why not be connected to the detonator?

I'll cut the wrong one.

What do you think you're going for, sick
slob?

Listen, boys, I'm going to give you a
choice.

Back off or we all go.

How are we doing down there?

Too wired.

There's a white one and there's a black
one.

I've got to finish him quick.

He's got his finger on the detonator.

It's gonna be all right.

Take him down.

Take him down now!

You're done.

I guess we all go.

Don't make it hard on yourself, boy.

I'll take that.

Diamond, sorry for doubting you.

Thanks.

Well, don't thank me.

That's the man you should be thanking
over there.

Check it out, man.

Steady as a rock.

Tiger! Yeah.

Thanks a lot.

You're very welcome.

Captain Tiger?

Yeah. We found some more temp tags on
the roof.

All right, we're coming right up.

Why don't you come and get me a hand up
on the roof, man?

No, I'm sorry. I can't do that, man. I
got this thing about heights.

Wait a minute. What about that bridge in
Nepal you told me about?

Uh, that, well, that was an
embellishment on the truth.

You mean a lie, right? A lie. No, no,
lies, they hurt, man.

Embellishments, they help.

It's kind of like the embellishments in
your love life, right?

No, no, I would call those more like
romantic obfuscations.

Okay. I'd call it BS.

Actually, no, technically BS is a form
of male bonding.

It's a ritual, actually. What happened
to this thing called truth?

Oh, yeah, that's totally overrated.

Ah, whiskey.
