MAN:
Practical applications.

Professor Phillip Sanjrani?

- Yes?
- Special Agent William Fraley.

I'm gonna have to ask you
to come with me.

You work with the FBI.
What's happening?

I don't know.

I-I'll find out.

The guy e-mailed instructions
for a bioweapon

to Pakistan.

They got some FBI scientist
to review my work

and say it's applicable
to human pathogens.

I'll find that report,
and I'll review it.

His work is

in crop development.

It's designed to
create new strains

of food crops resistant
to drought and insects.

Why is Phil Sanjrani
still in custody?

We now know that there
was no terrorist action.

Doesn't matter.
He did what he did.

Yeah, it matters.
It matters.

CHARLIE: I e-mailed
the rest of Sanjrani's work

to scientists at four
universities in Pakistan.

You lost your
security clearance?

Yeah.

This is my attorney,

and he's negotiated my surrender

to Federal authorities.

AGENT: Mr. Eppes, I'll
need to handcuff you.

*

* It has begun

* This is the reason
why I live *

* I give back
everything that I take *

* I won't leave
until I grow, I grow *

* It's second nature,
and I know, I know *

* This is the reason
why I live *

* I give back
everything that I take *

* I won't leave
until I grow, I grow *

* It's second nature,
and I know, I know *

Uh, Andy,

I got still got
all kinds of slack down here.

(rope snaps)

Hey!

You pulled me off!

Andy?

Andy's indisposed at the moment.

You have something

that belongs to me.

Send up the pack.

We didn't know.

No. You didn't.

So, we're cool, right?

Yeah.

We're cool.

(screaming)

Call you later.

What are you doing here?

I didn't tell anybody
when the hearing was.

Hey.

I'm a Federal prosecutor,
I know these things.

Oh, yeah?

- You off the hook?
- Yeah.

The judge accepted
the government's motion

and dropped all charges.

You are so lucky, Charlie.

- So is your friend Sanjrani.
- You call three weeks

in Federal detention lucky?

Well, he could've wound up
in jail or deported.

Only if the FBI was intent

on seeing something
that wasn't there.

What about your
security clearance?

It didn't get
straightened out.

Even though you technically
did nothing wrong?

Hey, that's not the way
the Bureau sees it.

Mm. Good-bye
to covert satellites.

Well, there's plenty
of other cool

stuff here to work on.

Well, maybe you should think

about maybe getting
your clearance back.

That means a whole new
security investigation, right?

Except this time, they'll be
looking for a reason to say no.

They'll grill me.

They'll grill everybody I know.

They'll be

intrusive
and embarrassing.

Well, it sounds like payback.

Oh, that's exactly what it is.

Meanwhile,
for every case I worked,

there's lots of stuff here
that went neglected.

So much math, so little time.

Exactly.

(garbled radio transmission)

MAN: Throw up the rope
and put him in the bigger bag.

MAN 2 (over radio): We're at the
bottom of the hill

making our way up.

Yeah, right there,
put a marker.

Andrew Tomkins, 22.

Brian Wright, 24.

Don't know much
about them

just yet.

So, Tomkins was shot
at close range.

Wright either fell
or was dropped.

Somebody tore through
their stuff pretty good.

Definitely looking
for something.

We'll need somebody
that knows the mountains.

Boo.

Yeah, maybe we can see
if Ian Edgerton's around.

Hey, man. Don.

COLBY:
What are you doing here?

I caught up with an escaped
convict in Riverside.

Tonight I fly out of LAX
to Oslo.

Fugitive stockbroker.

So you came down here

to taunt us with your
lack of availability?

Hey.

- What do you say, Ian?
- Agent Eppes.

I asked Ian to come give us
a little bit of his wisdom.

I don't know

if you guys need a tracker.

DAVID: Lot of innocent
people up here.

We got kids, families,
hiker, puppies.

(garbled radio transmission)

So why's the FBI involved?

Simple double-homicide.

Check this out.

It's been processed.

It was in the bag
they use with chalk.

COLBY: Found it attached
to his harness.

An uncut diamond?

DON:
Yeah, 72 carats.

It's worth about half a mil.

Not so simple after all.

(screaming)

Hey, guys, how are we doing
on those two dead climbers?

No records.

Wright was unemployed.

Tomkins had
a part-time job.

Neither of these guys
have a residence.

They stayed with friends,
lived out of their cars.

Spent all their time
rock-climbing.

The diamond-- it's still
a mystery. I mean,

you're gonna tell me
this guy

looks like a sophisticated
jewel thief?

Yeah, I hear you.

But still, I mean, somebody
wanted them dead, right?

What about the diamond itself?

I'm running the rock
through the Jewelers' Security

Alliance database.

And who the
hell are you?

Special Agent Nikki Betancourt.

Nikki's new around here.

If you can qualify as "new"
after four years LAPD.

Where I come from,
we spend, uh,

more time working informants
than databases.

Well, it takes more
than street cop attitude

to get an invitation
to Quantico.

I got a law degree.

Oh.

Another overachiever.

NIKKI:
Nothing so far

on the diamond.
Don't even

know yet if it's stolen.

Well, I mean,
the guy didn't mine it.

There's a science
to diamonds,

the way they authenticate
them and all.

Yeah, so let's get
Mr. Math in on this.

Uh,

Charlie has

a problem with his
security clearance.

So?

Charlie's not working

with us anymore, okay?
Can we just leave it at that?

Oh.

Okay, then.

Uh, what about that other guy?

Flintstone, Fierstein?

Fleinhardt?

Yeah, he's worked

on a few cases with us.

Amita, too.

MAN: Brian and Andy, man,
they were full on,

always climbing.

They have any enemies?

No, they never got
in any trouble.

Brian was too goofy and friendly
to get anybody mad at him.

And how about Andy?

Andy was a little more serious
than Brian, but not much.

Who knew them best?

That would be Pete and Skeet.

Pete Fuller, Theresa Kulhman,

the climbers who found
the bodies.

Skeet's real name is Theresa?
Seriously?

So were they just climbing
partners or anything more?

I don't think Pete's even
noticed Skeet's a girl.

We're gonna have to talk
to them again.

Oh, well check out Stony Point.
That's where they go bouldering.

What's bouldering?

Climbing on
smaller rocks

without ropes. My cousin back
home in Boise is a climber.

You're from Idaho?
City of Rocks!

What?

City of Rocks
National Reserve

in Idaho.

Sweet granite, radical routes.

Never been there?

(dance music playing)

* Merci beaucoup
merci beaucoup *

(singing in French)

*

(grunts)
(chuckles)

Damn it.

That was close!

Want to give it a run?

It's a fun
little problem.

Yeah, I'll spot ya.

Thanks, we have
a fun little

problem of our own though.

About Brian and Andy?

Yeah, heard you two
were close with them.

Hung out all the time.

Yeah, we've been
on a lot of

climbing trips together,
the four of us.

How'd they support themselves?

Brian worked on and off
for a mountain guide service.

Andy's parents sent him cash
now and then.

Yeah, Andy was their only son.

It's got to be tough on them.

And what about
Brian's family?

We've haven't heard from them.

Brian's parents are dead.

Got a cousin
back East, I think.

His family was us, you know,
other climbers.

Come on, big guy.
Pull up the skirt.

We're not on Oprah.

(chuckles)

They say anything to you guys

about coming into
some extra money

or finding something valuable,
anything like that?

Bri called me the
day before he died

and said there was a chance
he'd have a little money soon.

Did he say where the money
was coming from?

He said he found something
he thought he could sell.

But he didn't know
what it was worth

or if it was even
worth anything.

You have any idea
what it was?

He didn't say.

What else did you talk about?

Bri was excited about a new
route he found.

You know, rock climb

nobody'd done before.

THERESA:
Bri said it was

a classic-- might even
be as hard as 5.14.

Said he was gonna
name it Wrecked.

Um,

is, uh, is that where
they were killed?

No, no, the new cliff
was someplace else,

only they
knew where.

PETE: You know, we should try

to find it, do the route.

Name it after Brian and Andy
in their honor, you know?

Yeah, that's what
they would want.

Only, a 5.14 might be a little

over your head,
partner.

Oh, like you're
gonna go first?

Do you see what just happened
on this wall?

- I'm just saying that...
- No, it's not right.

Look, I lead.
You know that.

THERESA: Why you gonna
try to make me...

That's a heck
of a leap, Larry.

Oh, I'm pushing somewhat ahead
of a fully supported thought,

but let's think of this
as a moment of suspension

over a narrow breach.

Just one quick little step

over a small brook
rather than a...

a heck of a leap.

CHARLIE: Hey, what's that
old saying?

Uh, there's speculation,

speculation squared
and cosmology.

(knocking)

Gentlemen, just in time

to save the magic
and grace of physics

from the harsh logic

of these
mathematicians.

What's up, Ian?
It's good to see you, man.

You, too, professor.

I understand you're a threat
to homeland security these days.

Yeah.

So what's up?

Actually, we need to talk
to these two.

Oh.

Oh.

CHARLIE:
Well,

then I will go get some coffee.

Thanks.

Well, that was awkward.

ROBIN:
Charlie.

Oh, hey, Robin.

Uh, Don's in Amita's
office right now.

Actually, I'm here
to talk to you.

I want to help you get
your clearance back.

You do, huh?
Why's that?

To earn a Girl Scout badge,
why do you think?

I've won cases

with evidence that you've found,
Charlie.

And us prosecutors,
we love winning.

I'm persona non grata
at the Bureau.

I'm not the only one
who needs your work.

What about Don?

He's not pushing the issue.

He doesn't want
the headache.

I'm surprised.

I thought the two of you would
be fighting this a lot harder.

AMITA:
Rough diamonds are tough

to trace.

They're uncut.

There's no laser print on file.

No reports of theft yet.

So it could have been
stolen from anywhere.

Or even stolen
many years ago.

AMITA:
You could try

using an optic
crystallographic analysis.

If we had any idea

what that meant.

It's basically shining

a light on the subject.

A diamond is a crystal,

its atoms arranged
in a symmetrical structure.

Optic crystallographic analysis
shines a polarized light

into the crystal structure.

How the light refracts
could reveal impurities--

nitrogen or sulfur trapped
within the crystal.

And this can tell us where the
diamond was originally found.

Of course the problem
with diamonds

is they don't come from regions,

but from the center
of the earth.

And they're created
in the heat and the pressure

of the earth's mantle.

The very properties

for which diamonds are valued--
the hardness,

the clarity,
the purity--

that's what makes it
difficult

to identify them as coming
from one place or another.

It's a challenge President
Clinton gave scientists

back in 2001
to combat

this problem
of "conflict diamonds."

DAVID:
Welcome to

our special brand of the FBI.

So you can get an idea
of where the diamond's from,

but not for sure?

Yes.

Now, do we know how these
rough diamonds are transported?

In plain cases,
unmarked cars,

carried by
trusted couriers.

Maybe one or two people
know about a shipment.

So the shipments
can't be targeted.

LARRY:
I'm so fascinated by how

this jewel,
from the earth's core,

would up in the chalk bag
of a rock climber.

Yeah, we think he found it.
Didn't know much about diamonds.

I understand tradition holds

that the-the most valuable
of these brings bad luck.

The Hope Diamond, uh,
stolen from an idol,

curses those who touch it.

Ooh.

I didn't think you'd be upset
about the FBI stuff.

ALAN: Yeah. Well, what
I don't like

is they think they can strip you
of your security clearance.

Why? Most of your political
heroes couldn't have

even gotten security clearance.

Look Charlie, I'm very proud
of the way you handled things.

I mean, you did the right thing
when it wasn't easy.

I knew I'd have to face
the consequences.

Not all of them,
you don't.

There are some people at the FBI
that want to punish you,

and I don't think
they should be able to.

Listen, it doesn't affect
my reputation in my field.

You mean, you don't mind
the federal government imposing

unjust limitations on your work?

Dad, all I need to do my work

is a notebook, pencil...

And lots of chalkboards.

I know.

Just came in.

A report of a missing
diamond shipment.

Oh, yeah? So we got
ourselves a current case?

Very.

Kenneth Bryce,
an L.A. diamond merchant,

was due to deliver 30 stones
to New York yesterday--

worth about $50 million.

He's missing.

Okay, well, get the boys.

The plate matches Bryce's car,
the diamond merchant.

Yeah, he booked a seat
on a commercial charter,

used a false name for
security purposes.

I guess we'll see how well
that worked out for him.

WOMAN (over P.A.):
Service to Reno, Nevada,

your Flight 264
is now boarding...

It's unlocked?

Yep.

It's your turn.

That look like him?

Yeah.

Pretty sure
his diamonds are not with him.

Dead guy is Kenneth Bryce,

a partner with his brother
in Bryce & Sons Jewelers.

Robbed and shot
at the airport.

Colby and I will talk
to the brother,

see who knew
about shipment plans.

Cool.

So, what are
we thinking?

That transporting diamonds is
possibly a more dangerous job

than Alaskan crab fisherman.

Just two people knew
about the shipments:

me and my brother Kenny.

You think he would
have told anyone?

My brother was
a very careful person.

He flew private charters
under pseudonyms.

He never discussed shipments
with anybody but me.

DAVID: Maybe you were overheard,

possibly by
customers, workmen?

I don't see how.

We planned shipments
before shop hours.

You know, our father started
this business,

and Kenny and I worked it
with him.

Bryce & Sons.

Now it's just me.

Let's assume the rock climber
wasn't involved in the robbery.

So, how'd he get the stone?

All right.
The starting point is

a small municipal airport--
private and chartered aircraft.

So, what do we know
about small planes?

They fly.

And they sometimes...

Crash.

Larry, the murdered climbers
had a secret cliff,

with a route they'd
named "Wrecked."

Because maybe they had
found a wreck nearby?

If a plane flying
from that airport crashed

in that area, it was,
without a doubt, flying north.

Private pilots don't always
file flight plans,

and small planes aren't tracked

by radar over their
complete flights.

But the airport logs
show takeoffs

and a general sense
of their destinations.

All right, here's one.

It left El Monte,
scheduled to land in San Jose.

But San Jose didn't log
the arrival.

(beeping)

EDGERTON: We think the robbers
hijacked the diamond merchant

in the airport parking lot,

put the diamonds on a small
plane headed for San Jose.

LARRY: Crashed in the
San Gabriel Mountains,

the climbers found it
and took the diamonds.

All right.
So, who killed them?

Well, theory doesn't
encompass that.

And do we know
who the plane registered to?

Rented by a guy,
using a fake ID.

Transponder?

Well, if it had one,
it wasn't on.

And an aerial search could
easily miss a small plane wreck.

Well, one on foot's
gonna take a month.

Not if we can mathematically
narrow down the search area.

I'll give it a whirl.
Charlie would be faster.

No, that's not gonna happen;
D.C. won't let it.

One more possibility:
we find that secret cliff

these dead climbers
were talking about.

- All right, let's try both.
- Fine.

A flight plan doesn't say

where the plane really was
when it crashed.

Aircraft that go down
over these wilderness areas

are sometimes never found.

Did you know,

more small planes
have disappeared

over the continental U.S.

than have vanished
in the Bermuda Triangle?

Really?

So they said on MythBusters.

Stolen diamond,
missing plane,

murdered climbers--

random pieces.
And yet,

like asteroids
millions of miles apart,

they all orbit
the same source of gravity.

Well, a big diamond
exerts a lot of pull.

Certainly does.

Pete and Skeet?

Nah, man.
They took off for the mountains.

They say where
they were going?

They said they were
headed out to find

Drew and Bri's
secret crag.

I thought no one knows
where it is.

Well, that's not gonna stop
anyone from looking.

So, where would they start?

Well, like the rest of us--
with a good old USGS topo map.

(computer beeping)

(sighs)

That's an
interesting approach.

How interesting?

Moderately interesting.

We're wasting our time.

No, I didn't say that.

I-I mean, this analysis
should garner you

at least half a dozen
target areas.

Eight so far.

Have the FBI send over
some FAA radar data

from the day of the flight.

We tried that;
the signals are too weak

over the mountains to get
an accurate fix.

Have you been looking
for the noisy edge?

The noisy edge
of what?

Larry, Squish-Squash,
remember?

When Charlie tracked
that UFO for Don.

The visitor from space

who was not a
visitor from space.

Oh, my word, that seems like
a hundred years ago.

Tell me about it.

I still have the algorithms
in the computer lab.

They'll take the faint

radar signals,
separate it from the noise

and give us
a probabilistic flight path.

Charlie,

thank you very much.

I was never here.

WOMAN: I'm just gonna fill it
with water, okay?

DON:
All right.

You guys want to canvass around,
see if you get any info?

*

Who else got a lead
on that secret cliff?

Visitor Center employee
said Wright and Tomkins

were in right before
the killings.

Tomkins invited her
to go climbing

along the Cougar Ridge
trailhead.

I talked to a ranger
that saw their car

with no Adventure Pass.

Wrote a summons,
gave me the location.

I got a backpacker who says he
ran across a newly marked trail.

All right, why don't you
guys check those out, huh?

What about you?
You got something?

I got some prospector
who said he heard machinery.

COLBY:
Machinery?

DON:
Yeah, like a drill.

A drill?
In the mountains?

Well, actually climbers will use
them to bolt in anchors.

It's worth checking out.

If just one of these leads
is right,

we find ourselves a secret cliff
and a plane crash.

DON: All right, well, cells
aren't working,

so take the radio
and keep it on.

We'll meet back here
in... two hours?

Hey, Amita.
Hey.

How's it going?

Great,

thanks to you.
You know, I had

no idea that getting
radar data required

a court order.

No problem.

This has got to be awkward
for Charlie.

Um, he's keeping busy.

He actually gets to spend time
with his students now.

Don likes to keep busy, too.

They're both workaholics,
aren't they?

You know, I kid Don that if
he's not working or having sex,

he's thinking
about work...

or sex.

Yeah, with Charlie,
he's having so much fun working

that he can't stop working.

Well, that's a good thing.

Don thinks everything
will fall apart without him.

That's typical oldest kid.

Or the fear of insignificance

in the face
of a little brother genius.

But that's how they've
connected, right? Through work.

Yeah.

And food.

(chuckles):
Yeah, food.

They're a little obsessed
about food.

Yes. Well, they get that
from their dad.

Yeah.

*

(water rushing)

I know why the ranger found

(over radio):
Wright and Tomkins' car here.

They were using
the local bathroom.

And I found the local bar.

(over radio):
So much for this lead.

(birds screeching)

EDGERTON (over radio): You two
join up with me at Cougar Ridge.

I'm looking into
a rocky canyon here

with a lot of possibilities.

Copy that.

NIKKI:
Copy.

THERESA:
We were climbing, that's all.

Eppes?

MAN: All the way out here,
like your friends?

Don, are you reading this?

PETE: Please, just tell us
what you want.

We lost something up here.

Your friends found it,
but they didn't have all of it.

Dude, you're the ones
with the guns.

If we knew anything,
we would tell you.

Only need one of you
to tell us where it is.

Eppes?

(indistinct radio chatter
in distance)

MAN (over radio): ...shifting to
the northwest after midnight.

Tuesday, mostly sunny,
highs 87 to 97.

Light winds becoming less,
five to ten miles an hour

in the afternoon.

Forecast for mountains
and foothills:

the rest of today, mostly sunny,
highs 89 to 99.

Southwest winds,
five miles an hour,

shifting to the southwest
in the afternoon.

(turns off radio)

(grunts)

(gunshot echoing)

(gunfire over radio)

(gunshot)

(gunfire continues)

Go, go, go!

Eppes!

We got people headed out

to search the vicinity
of the shots.

That's a possible 12 miles to
the north and ten miles east.

120 square miles?

It'll take us a
week to cover.

Call in for aerial
recon and get

as many guys out there
as you can; I'll be back.

- Where you going?
- Pasadena.

That's an hour
from here.

Eight minutes by chopper.

Nice job, idiot.
Let's go.

Gian-Carlo Rota of MIT
said that combinatorics

is like putting
different colored marbles

in different colored boxes

and seeing how many ways
you can divide them.

Eppes... we need you.

(whispers):
I can't work for the FBI.

Forget that.
Your brother's in trouble.

What do you mean?
What's wrong?

I'll tell you
en route. Come on.

The rest of you...

take an early recess.

What were you guys
doing up here anyway?

Dude, did you see that crag?

It's got, like, a dozen
classic hard lines on it.

That could be the first
5.15 in California.

We got to find someplace
to hide, I guess.

I always feel safer
above the ground.

I can minimize it further
to account for the idea

that Tomkins and Wright were
two or three miles from a road.

It will take days to finish.

Not with help from JPL.

DAVID: Don's not gonna
like this.

Well, we can argue about that
after we save his ass.

All right, listen:
go to this site.

A friend of mine
has access to classified

National Geospatial-Intelligence
Agency imagery.

AMITA:
Got it.

All right, here,
what we're looking at

is a high-definition image
of the San Gabriels

taken off a LandSat

maybe a half
hour ago.

What you want to do
is overlay that

with the probable
flight path.

(typing)

Okay.

There.
There's something right there.

LARRY: To be that big
and reflect that much light

that would have to be

AMITA: Stone.

And a lot of it.

High-alpine granite?

It fits the parameter
of the secret cliff.

It's in the shadow
of the flight path,

and it's two miles
from a road.

Can you pull up the topo--
What's the name

of that canyon?

(computer trilling)

Icehouse Canyon.

LARRY:
Icehouse?

Wait, that's in
the guidebook here.

Wait, wait, wait.
Back in the 1800s,

there was an ice plant there,
serving the gold miners.

Gold miners?

That's the right one.

Edgerton. Get me
back on the mountain.

(cries out)

- Is it broken?
- I don't know.

Doesn't matter. Let's go.

Let's go.
You guys get a head start.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
You sure, man?

Yeah, yeah.

There's three of them.
They got bigger guns.

Go, go, go, go, go.
Come on.

EDGERTON (over radio): Agent
Granger, this is Edgerton.

Do you copy?

Go ahead.

Get over to Icehouse Canyon
as fast as you can

with as many people
as you've got.

Right. Got it.

Ian's got a location on Don.

(gun clicks empty)

Let's go. Come on.

Come on.
We got to keep moving, guys.

Come on.
Come on, come on.

Let's go, Pete. Come on, come
on. I know you're hurt--

Hey, hey, get Skeet out of here.

Look, you guys can move.
I can't.

No, no no, I'll hold them off.
Let's go.

How? You're out of ammo, right?

Look, they're not
going to kill me.

They think I know
where the diamonds are.

We're sticking together, come
on!

I can't...

or we're all going to die.

- Come here.
- Pete!

Hey!

Hey!
Go, go, go!

I know where the diamonds are.
I know where they are.

So, what are we
gonna do about Pete?

Soon as you're safe,

I'm gonna get a team
and I'm gonna go after him.

(cocks gun hammer)

You might miss... but I won't.

Finger off the trigger.

Thank you very much.

Hey, how'd you find us?

(indistinct radio transmission)

Well, I could tell you,
but you're not gonna like it.

What? Charlie.

Still, it came down to the wire.

This clown was gonna
pop your brain box.

Yeah. What about the other two?

Where's Pete?

Bumbles here said they had
a jeep on the fire road.

Nikki and Colby found tracks;
the vehicle's gone.

- We got a chopper searching.
- All right.

CHARLIE (over radio):
Ian? Can you hear me?

Yeah, let me hand you
to your brother.

Hey, Don, you okay?

DON: Yeah, Charlie, I'm fine.
Where you at?

I'm at the FBI.

Listen, I think
we found the plane.

The coordinates
are latitude 34.5733,

longitude minus 118.1216.

Okay, got it.

And, Charlie...

thank you very much.

- Sure.
- But get out of there

before the assistant director
sees you.

Otherwise we're both screwed,
you hear me?

(helicopter blades whirring)

DON:
Check this out.

Diamonds are long gone, huh?

And they think Pete
knows where they are?

How good a liar is he?

No ID.

And he's not talking.

And the other two
evaded a dragnet

with a hostage.

Body on the plane
had a fake ID.

And we have no name
on the live one we got.

But what we do know
is that this robbery crew

was able to learn details
about a secret diamond shipment.

So, maybe they left some
record of how they did that.

DAVID:
There.

That's the dead guy
from the plane.

Other one matches
the description Don gave.

Bet they're not there
to buy an engagement ring.

Mm-mm.

Yep. Got it.

They tried to bug our store?

That's impossible.

The entire store
is electronically shielded.

They knew about
the shipment.

They must've figured a way
around that.

To get past
the electronic shield

that was installed in the store,

this device was wired to a small
satellite dish on the roof.

That way, it sends a signal
to the satellite,

which in turn relays it
to the receiver on the ground.

That means that the robbers
could've been

listening in
from anywhere.

Well, that's true, but...

we know where the dish
was pointed,

we also know
there are very few satellites

that would even accept
such an anonymous signal,

So, we should be able to
identify the satellite involved.

Can we get a precise date
and time

for the conversation
overheard?

Yeah, we can do that.

A comprehensive geometrical
analysis should be able

to provide
the probable locations

for such a receiver.

Do it fast.
They've got a hostage.

Larry, this analysis
is pretty deep stuff.

Do you know
how to do it?

I know how...

to get it done.

Charlie, listen,

to quote the late Paul Erdos,
"Is your brain open?"

Uh, as long as it has nothing
to do with the FBI case.

I mean, it was one thing
when Don was missing, but...

No, this is purely
particle physics research.

Okay, I have a problem

with the bubble chamber
analysis program

that I've been using
to identify ellipses

in particle track data.
- Okay.

I ran it past Dr. Tolenson,
who said he didn't understand...

Wait. What do you mean,
you showed it to Dr. Tolenson?

No. No.

Tolenson attacked my paper
on lattice theory.

He tried to get my space
in the faculty parking lot.

I waited five years
for that space.

- I didn't know...
- Let me see it.

- Let me see that problem.
- I could run this past...

No, let me see it.
Give it to me.

I want to see it.

Maybe you can help us
out with something.

We know that Andy and Brian
found the plane wreck.

But why didn't
they report it

instead of going on to another
cliff to climb some more?

Man, you got to
understand climbers.

They probably figured,
hey, the guy's already dead.

There's no rush.

At least they got
their priorities straight.

THERESA:
Bri and Drew

were good guys, but...

they didn't do a lot
of deep thinking, you know?

You think Pete's still alive?

We're working
under that assumption.

Lot of people
trying to find him.

He's a brave guy.

Risked his life
to save Agent Eppes.

And me.

All right.

Now, this should work.

You gonna show this
to Tolenson right now?

'Cause I'd love to be there to
see his face when he sees this.

Well... not at this instant, no.

Larry?

Larry's analysis of the signals
sent to the device

we found at the jewelry store
pinpoints a house

rented under the name
James Meyers.

Interpol lists that as an alias
used by this guy:

Alex Rezar.

Known associate of...

Keith Jackson and Nigel Moore.

All right, well,
since we got Moore,

let's bring in
his friends then, right?

(door closes)

I don't think
that kid knows

where the rest of
those diamonds are.

Then it's over.

Can't go back
to the wreck site.

The FBI knows
about it.

You know, I was wondering...

how'd you know
where the crash was?

I put a tracking device
on the plane.

The pilot--
you didn't trust him?

I trust you.

I trust Moore.

That's it.

What about the kid?

We're done with him.

(gasping)

Hold still.

It'll just take longer
and hurt more.

Screw you.

FBI!
Stay where you are!

Hands!
I need to see some hands!

Freeze! Get 'em up.
Get 'em up now!

- Federal agents!
- Hands up!

Get 'em up!

- I got it!
- Clear!

Clear!
Nice and easy.

Get your hands
on your head.

Keep 'em up there.

Turn around.

Hey, that'll
look good on you.

OFFICER: All right,
bring 'em out.

You got him?
(handcuffs clicking)

(indistinct radio transmissions)

Roll over.

We'll get you
to a medic. Come on.

Can you stand up?
- Yeah.

- I got ya.
- Get up.

ME's report
on the dead pilot.

Check out
the tox screen.

Drugged.

Out cold when he crashed.

You thinking what
I'm thinking?

No honor among thieves.

REZAR:
We want lawyers.

EDGERTON:
Sure.

Right after story time.

The story's about four guys
who bugged a jewelry store

to find out when a shipment
of diamonds was going out.

They killed the owner.

The stash went
on a light plane headed north.

Drugged the pilot.

Plane crashed.

Climbers found
the wreck,

but they didn't find
all the stash.

You want to
know why?

Because one of you

slipped most of the
diamonds out of the case,

left enough to fool the pilot.

Then maybe
offered him a swig

from a flask, something
like that, huh?

DON: They figured the plane
would go down

and nobody would know
those diamonds weren't on it.

Didn't know I'd planted a
tracker on the damn plane.

EDGERTON: And all of you went
on a wild goose chase

through the mountains looking
for the missing diamonds,

(chuckling)
but one of you already had 'em.

We could have been rich
and in Europe by now.

Instead of busted
in L.A.

Sit down.

You won't be safe in prison.

I promise you.

I thought
you were dead!

(gasping)

I guess he's finally figured out
she's a girl.

Yeah.

Wonder if that'll mess
with the climbing.

DON:
Right, got it. Thanks.

Diamonds are
in a safe deposit box

registered to our friend
Keith Jackson.

We couldn't have done it
without Charlie.

You have no idea
the flak I'm getting.

Well, you do the job right,

you're going to catch it.

That's life
in the Bureau.

I guess.

Hey.

Thanks for the help.

Don't mention it.

I would have signed up
for the FBI sooner

if I knew
it'd be like this.

Yeah, I'm pretty
damn great, aren't I?

I meant the case.

So did I.

Uh-huh.

ROBIN:
You know, Charlie,

for someone
who can't work for the FBI,

you seem to have done
a lot of work

on this case.

More than you know.

Well, you know, Ian doesn't
give you much choice.

Yeah, he's tough
to say no to,

that guy.

CHARLIE:
Guy can kill a person

from 1,000
yards away.

LIZ:
See, this only makes

my argument for me.

I really think you should
appeal the FBI's decision.

(sighs)

Yeah, me, too.

You do?

Yeah, I do.

Look, you're
not a threat.

Come on, they know it.

And you don't think

it would make things
more awkward for you?

(Don sighs)

Ah, whatever, screw it.

They can't mess with us.

There's a tough guy.

The fighting Eppes Brothers.

CHARLIE:
All right,

I'll do it.

I'll appeal their decision.

ALAN:
You know, the first time

my wife and I took Charlie to
the pediatrician for an earache,

he wouldn't let the doctor
examine his ears

because he thought
the doctor might just see

the thinking going on
in his head.

The doctor
declared Charlie

the second most stubborn kid
he'd ever met.

And the first?

Uh...

don't tell me.
Don?

You got it.

Particle physicists
like to use pool balls

to describe the actions
of subatomic particles,

but actually, these
massive spheres

behave in a far
more predictable,

even Newtonian manner.

Now, let's say that
this cue ball has

the characteristics
of a boson.

He's stalling because
he doesn't have a shot.

No, no, no, no, no.

I shall call this shot...

the Fleinhardt Boson.

(laughing):
The flying what?

(laughs)

LARRY:
Just as I intended.

Let's see either of you take
your shot from behind the dryer.

Uh, well, it's your shot.

Yeah.

(laughter)
