Money first.

Same time.

What the hell is this? This isn't the one I wanted. You were outbid.

You said $6 ,000.

That's $6 ,000.

This one's worth just as much.

Not to me it isn't.

Here. Here. Here. Here. Here. Here.

Miss Tassione?

This is you.

It makes me want to paint.

You ever wish you were an artist?

I've always wanted to be a cop, and that question makes me uneasy.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Officer Ellen Rewis?

Somerville. Oh.

Much easier to remember.

So, where's the detective?

Not here yet. Don't worry. I'm a third -generation cop.

Wow, I don't think I'm third generation anything.

Victim is Patrick Palmer.

Still checking on a workplace.

We think it's a drug deal gone bad. Possibly a female assailant. Why female?

Dyed hair found on the victim's body.

Oh. I have a new hairstylist. She's always telling me to try a lighter

Wait, that's nylon.

How do you know that? Too smooth.

Maybe from a wig or a...

You know... Ooh, shiny.

Maybe it's not a drug deal. Maybe it's gemstones?

Well,

I think I know where he works.

Where? Where dreams come true.

This is everything.

May I help you, officer?

Is it Patrick Poem I work here? Yes, but he's not in yet.

Is everything all right?

Do you have one of those piano keyboards you can walk on?

Yes. Why?

Oh, I just think they're so fun.

Um, are you hot in that?

Sometimes. Can we speak to someone who's in charge here? This way.

You sure?

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

How did it happen?

That's what we're trying to figure out now.

He was just here last night. He was closing up.

I saw him.

Oh, my God.

Candace, can you help that woman?

Can I help you with anything?

I love your outfit. What are you? Oh, I'm the doll doctor.

I wish I'd known that was an occupation when I was a kid.

Ma 'am, I'm in a bit of a hurry.

Yes, sorry, coming, sir.

I will grab that from the back. It'll just be a second.

Wow, doll hospital.

Wow, that's fun.

I just love toy stores, don't you?

I mean, they have that smell.

What is it?

Is this plastic?

Surprise.

Ma 'am, did you find it? Yes, sir.

Chrissy the equestrian.

So, Mr. Palmer had it on hold for a Nolan Hearst. Is that you?

Yes. I'm in a bit of a hurry. Please.

Just wrapping it up.

There she is.

Look, there was some confusion. Mr. Palmer saved her.

For you, but then your name was cropped out and another name was added.

The other employees said Palmer went out last night to sell a collector's doll

to a customer.

Okay, so here are your adoption papers.

You could just sign right here. She's all yours, Mr. Hurst.

1085, Becker's Toys, possible person of interest in multiple units.

Sir?

1085, Becker's Toys, possible person of interest in multiple units.

Central copy.

Central copy.

Central copy.

Hands up! Right now! Do it! Hands up! Nolan, can we please just talk?

Get out. Go out the front door now. Just put down the gun, all right? That's my

gun. There's no way out of here. You're outnumbered. No, no, no. That's not

true. That's not true. It's just us, and we just want to talk. Get out now.

Do it.

Nolan?

The spell's better than there.

Yes, Captain.

I can't believe this. My dad would kill me.

The guy who took those hostages, he took my gun.

It wasn't Holster? I... I wear my dad's old holster.

No auto lock.

Well, let's make sure he doesn't use it, okay?

Has anyone hurt?

Oh, no, no. I mean, yes.

Not in the store, but there was a murder this morning, but it might not have

been intentional. You said you heard the name of the hostage taker? Yes, from

the doctor.

There's a doctor in there? A doll doctor.

She wears a lab coat.

Okay. What was the name?

Nolan. Nolan Hurst. Nolan Hurst. You got it?

And how many hostages?

Oh, I don't know.

The store had just opened.

Wait, let me see.

Wow. Lady, a little clarity, please.

Tully, she just had a gun on her. Take her ease.

Yes. Hi, Charles.

You here to help, are you?

That's bad.

Take your time.

Right. What did you see?

Um... Okay, Nolan was picking up a special edition Chrissy Spirited Girl

The manager, Patrick Palmer, I was this close to calling him Arnold. I'm not

actually a fan of iced tea, but the combination... Elizabeth.

Sorry. The manager, Patrick, was holding the doll for Nolan.

Patrick is the deceased from this morning.

Got him.

Is this the guy? Yes.

His beard is shorter and grayer, though. Nolan Hurst was released last month

after a four -year stint in Wittown Detention Center. Oh, I was there. We

musical. Or was that a dream?

What was he in for?

Assault?

Insider trading.

I bet he's in the drug game now.

Happens all the time to guys on the inside.

The doll may be how he's transporting the drugs.

Hey, I need some eyes and ears here, huh? I need to be inside this store now.

He's, um, intense.

Be an old friend of yours?

Well, we played a few hands of poker back in our patrol days. He always

he had the best cards on the table until he got a bad beat.

Well, I don't speak poker, but I get it.

We have blueprints and access to security cameras inside.

Good. Let's see it.

Right here.

What happened?

Wait one second.

Is that it? That's the last one that I know

of. that you know of? I'm a performer, not security.

And how do you shut off the damn music? It's driving me crazy.

It's corporate. It's always on.

Now, what do you think it does to us every day?

All right, get over there.

Get over there. Go back. Go and get together.

Scrunch together. Closer. Look, I was just here to get a birthday card. I

even like the person. I can just go. I'm late for an audition. It's at 11.

Tin Man, shut up. Tin Soldier.

And you stop crying, please.

And my name is Rufus.

Okay, all right. Hands out. Put your hands out. Okay, great.

Here we go.

This is Captain Cyrus Tully, NYPD.

Am I speaking to... Hello?

Store, yeah. I want the store.

I'm sorry, I didn't catch that.

Store? Uh, a human person, front counter?

I'm sorry, I didn't catch that.

Flagship. What?

Flagship.

You want the flagship store.

Flagship. Uh, connect me to the flagship store.

Hey, I was just gonna...

Keep bringing until you answer it.

How's it look?

Store's closed.

Mr. Hurst. Who's this?

This is Captain Tully, NYPD.

Let's discuss how we can get everyone out of there safely, shall we? When

out of here safely, okay? I want a jet to a destination of my choosing. Okay, I

can, uh, work on that.

But, uh, you'll need to release some people in return for making those

arrangements. No, no, no, no, stop.

I'm not stupid. I've seen the movies. I know these people are the only thing

keeping me alive.

It's Jeff, and I know I look really crazy right now, but I'm literally being

held hostage. Becker's toys, and there's a guy, and he hasn't got any wallet.

What's going on? What happened? Nolan?

Nolan? Okay, I will release a hostage in exchange for another hostage.

Well, as a rule, Nolan, we don't trade hostages, but I'll come in. How about

that? No, no, no, no.

Send in the cop.

He's got my gun.

Send me in.

One second.

We found a breach point through an upstairs apartment.

We can go and tend, but we need to get him away from the vent.

Okay, we can send him in in one minute. Him? No, no, her.

The plainclothes cop.

These are my plainclothes.

No. She's no cop. She's not a cop.

She's not a cop.

She sounded like a cop.

I'm going.

No, no, wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait, officer.

Please don't leave early. Look, if you want the hostage, send her over. Or

otherwise, no deal.

Excuse me.

Hold on, hold on. Wagner. Oh, good.

Whoa, whoa, wait, wait. Ellsworth. Ma 'am.

Ellsworth. No, no, no.

Miss. Ellsworth.

I think this is a mistake.

I'll go. Captain, he asked for me. We had a nice rapport before he pulled the

gun on me. Well, you need to keep Nolan away from the vent.

Okay, that shouldn't be too hard, right?

Okay, send her out.

Uh -uh.

First send her in.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. What's in the bags?

Um, well, usually on Wednesdays I like to put stuff that has... Just drop them.

Oh, okay. Let me just grab a few. Drop them.

All right, step up.

Step up.

Good to see you again, Roland.

Over there. Over there.

Oh, do you want to talk for a sec?

Kneel. Oh, okay.

How are you guys doing?

Hot. And I missed my audition.

I don't belong here.

Are you a cop?

No, but I work with the police.

Can you sneak attack and get his gun?

That would be fun, wouldn't it? Unfortunately, that's not my area of

What is your area of expertise?

I observe.

Oh, my gosh. The police do have a plan, right? A plan?

Yes. They're going to enter through a vent.

We have to keep him away from it, okay?

So let's see. Oh, there.

There, too.

I see another one.

Which one?

Which one?

I'm not stupid.

I told you.

Okay. And a portable heater.

One for each hostage and myself.

Plug in. No, not batteries.

Because... Here.

What are we going to do?

Nolan?

Nolan? Over here. What? I'm so sorry. I have to go to the bathroom.

You just got here. Yeah, I know. But when I get nervous, I have to go. You

should have seen me on Christmas morning.

Please.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you.

Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry.

Oh, good.

Okay. Okay. Thanks.

Wait.

You know what? I bet the music is coming from in here.

That's it.

Let's go. Let's go.

the weasel.

I didn't know they were going to do that.

I really did have to go to the bathroom.

It's being in nervous situations like this. That's all. I mean, one time I...

Look,

I'm sorry. I'm a nice guy.

Really, I am, but...

Everybody reaches their breaking point.

Come on. Come on.

Not answering. Because you escalated the situation. I don't really need your

commentary, Charles.

Watch and learn, gentlemen.

Escalate your situation.

Come on.

Nolan Hurst.

This is Captain Tully again.

I'm having a little trouble reaching you on the phone, Nolan.

Still working on that jet for you. But we need to de -escalate things a little

bit, so I need you to speak to me, Nolan. Captain Wagner.

Teddy, what are you doing here?

I saw this girl live streaming that she was being held hostage, and I happened

to check my mom's location.

She shares hers. I don't share mine.

She's in there, too?

She volunteered to go in. You should go home, and we'll call you when we resolve

this. No. There's no way I'm leaving. I need everyone to move around the corner.

No.

He's with me.

Everyone else.

Thanks. Don't worry. Your mother's very good at talking her way out of things.

breakfast. You'll be fine.

Fasting's a thing now anyway, Tin Rufus.

And you're crazy if you think I'm going to let somebody in here with food.

No.

No. Just let her talk.

Unless it's sign language, I don't want to hear her.

Ow.

We don't need them to bring in food. What do you mean?

God, that smells good.

Lemon cake.

Oh, I always wanted one of these as a kid, but my dad said I would burn

Aw. Yeah.

My daughter wanted one, too, and I said the same thing.

How old is your daughter?

She's 11.

Uh, no, sorry. She's 14.

I haven't seen her in a while.

Oh. Why is that?

Because... I went to prison.

She was nine when I went in, and she visited once,

and then her mom cut me off.

And you haven't seen her since?

I was supposed to see her today.

That's why the doll?

Yeah. I used to buy my son everything he asked for.

I was making up for working 80 hours a week as a lawyer.

He's an adult now, and there's no substitute for spending time with him.

Do you think you can get closer to somebody later in life, even if you blew

completely earlier?

Absolutely.

Shoot! You okay?

See?

Dig in.

It's a cool doll, though, the doll you were getting.

She asked for it.

I mean, it's the only thing she's ever asked for.

Nolan, you have to tell the police.

They think the doll is carrying drugs.

I think we're a little past that point.

Oh, that is good.

Nolan? Oh.

I should give him a dead blank.

What do you think? I think he watched a lot of Die Hard and Dog Day Afternoon in

prison. I did the Pacino monologue in class. I think this is Inside Man.

Remember what happened with the pizza boxes in the movie? They were bugged?

Right. No.

What are we going to do now?

She's coming.

Give me a country with no extradition. Cuba.

Algeria. That's from Dog Day.

Elspeth. Oh, Lichtenberg.

Lichtenberg? That's a real place. Yeah.

I forgot the cake. I have celiac.

Well, then why did you eat it? I was really hungry, and maybe I... I'll clean

this up. I think we should get her some medical attention. Oh, my God.

Have you heard, too? No, I'm sorry. I don't know if I know who's speaking.

Um, Captain Wagner?

Absolutely not.

Yeah, Wagner.

Wagner. Okay, I have a message from Elvis.

Good.

What is it?

The nanny cam.

Elvis, I hear.

So I need to clear out everything. I need to make it easy.

See what I'm looking at?

We'll get them to the other side of the store. We'll get a clean shot.

They'd be in and down.

I need a driver.

What's your daughter's name?

Why do you want to know?

Nothing. You just said you were doing all of this just to get her a doll.

I just wanted to know her name.

It's Bella.

Bella. That's nice.

And you just wanted to get her a doll.

I mean... The doll didn't have drugs in it or anything like that. All right, I'm

done talking about this. Nolan, why don't you tell the police out there that

want to talk to your daughter, Bella?

They'll find her.

Go.

What?

Nolan?

I'm back.

Captain Wagner, not my arm.

I've got something for you.

Stop there.

It's your daughter.

She wants to talk to you.

Let me just put it here by the door.

Now back away.

Okay?

Just talk to him.

Hello. Hey, Dad.

Hey, kiddo.

Hey, oh, my God.

It's so good to hear your voice.

I miss you so much.

How's it going?

I'm okay.

Kind of a lot, you know.

I know.

I'm sorry. Thanks, Scott.

Uh, out of hand.

Um, hey, how's school?

It's fine.

I hate algebra.

Oh, algebra's the worst.

I hated it, too, but, you know, I got through it, and then you'll get through

it, too, you know? Uh, oh, I got you that, uh, doll you wanted.

What doll?

The one you said, uh, Chrissy, the spirited girl doll.

Oh, yeah, thank you so much.

You don't want it?

No, I want it. Bring it to me. I'll meet you outside the store.

Bella.

I know when you're lying to me, I'm your father.

Yeah, I did want the doll, Dad, like three years ago, but you were in prison.

I'm 14 now. I'm not the same.

Right. Of course. I should have thought of that.

That was a mistake.

This is a mistake.

I seem to be making a lot of those these days.

I love you, Bella.

Be good.

She might enjoy visiting you in Lichtenberg.

There's castles and strudel and... Lederhosen.

Now, I've been reading up on your Tully guy.

It's not my guy.

Yeah, well, last year it was the same exact thing. There was a hostage

situation, and one of his marksmen missed the hostage taker and killed a

know. You know?

You have to stop this. Teddy, in situations like this, we are equals.

I'm not his superior.

We just need more time, okay?

You said Mom can talk her way out of anything. She just needs time.

Okay, Nolan.

The van will be here in 15 minutes, so...

You know I'm a defense attorney.

That's always been my job.

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of lawyers.

You never had me before.

I look at your case, and I can't help but think how I would defend you. If I

your lawyer, I would say this was an accident.

The victim slipped and hit his head. And why were you meeting this guy at all?

Had you on the stand, what would you say?

Were you buying drugs?

No, I bought a doll.

For who?

Whom?

My daughter, Bella.

Because you love her. You got out of prison, your first thought was making

happy. And how much did you pay for this doll?

$6 ,000.

Oh, that was every cent you had, wasn't it? Hey, guys, come over here.

Sit over here.

Sit down.

Okay, Nolan, just tell us in your own words.

All right. I love my family very much, and I wanted the

best for them. You know, private schools, vacations, and that's why I

stupid trades that I shouldn't have.

And then everything fell apart.

And I had this idea that if I just got her the one thing she asked for when I

got out, that, you know, everything would go back to the way it was.

We were very happy.

Mm -hmm.

Nolan, I want you to look at this doll box and read

the price for the jury.

$400.

The store manager was asking you to pay 15 times the listed price.

And then he tried to swindle you.

And that's how I used to defend my clients.

By finding a bigger villain.

I'm not proud of it now, but it worked.

Come on.

Yeah, but I took hostages. Okay, when you arrived this morning, were you

No. Of course not. I don't own a gun. I've never even held a gun before.

a police gun in your hand, isn't it?

Was it not the police who overreacted, who left a gun so easily accessible?

Yeah, but don't juries always side with cops?

Not if I put Captain Tully on the stand.

There was a way to de -escalate this crisis, but he wanted to prove himself.

To prove...

Okay, get the minivan in here. Let's get this over with. Yeah, she's right. You

know, this is all about the size of your budget.

Wagner, get out.

You have no authority here.

This is my precinct. It's my operation.

Is that not... Chief Spaulding? Chief Spaulding, I can't... Captain Tully

yep. We are ten minutes from engaging. I just wanted to... Yes, sir? Yes,

Captain Wagner is here, and he's undermining my leadership right now,

Whoa! Chief, Captain Tully is planning a tactical assault. Chief... With

potential... High civilian casualties. No.

One of those casualties is going to be our consent decree lawyer.

No, sir.

That's right, but... Okay.

Yes, Chief?

Thank you.

Charles, you need to stand down.

Officer Stone, take Captain Wagner to his car and keep him there. Thank God.

All right.

Everybody pay attention, please.

Let's move.

Have the snipers line up their shots.

And let's go. I want to have everybody to... Yeah? Who is this? Who are you?

Elsbeth Tassioni is my mother.

Tough break. Get out.

Someone help him out. Let's go.

I've got a shot.

We have a shot.

You know, I really didn't want this to happen. I know.

And there's no way you can be my attorney. I can't. But I can get you the

attorney working today. She's in D .C., but she also practices in New York.

What's the name of her law firm?

You know, it keeps changing.

I'll text you.

Okay.

I've got a shot.

Am I going?

Okay.

Get down!

Lost the target.

I'm sorry, but there's no way they're letting me out of here alive.

Probably wants me to cry.

It's okay, I got this.

Let me see your phone, sir.

Huh? Please, sir.

What are you doing?

Logging you in.

Oh, thanks.

You can talk through it, too.

Captain Wagner?

Tully is not going to let Nolan in that van.

If he has the slightest chance, he's going to take a shot.

Don't you come out here with him. Well, I don't have an option.

He's taking all of us. He's having us surround him.

What if they don't have a shot?

What do you mean?

Mom, it's Teddy. I'm here.

Just stay calm. We're going to get you out.

Also, hi. I came here. Hi. I followed your location.

Aw. No, just...

Remember, I'm not sharing with you, but I can see where you are. We got it, we

got it. Okay. Stay calm. We're gonna get you out, okay? Elspeth!

Time to go.

Right, yes.

Wait.

We get through this together, or we don't get through it at all, right?

What does that mean?

Okay.

30 seconds now.

Which one is it?

Which is it?

I don't know.

Who's got blonde hair? Who's got blonde hair?

Tell him to look for a beard.

Beard, beard. I don't see a beard. Look for glasses.

You see some glasses?

I see glasses.

We do not let them get to the minivan. You understand me? You can't just start

shooting at them. Hey, glasses.

Fire, fire a weapon. Fire your weapon, officer.

Glasses right there. Shoot.

No! No!

Did we get him?

My left arm is complete again.

Is everybody okay?

I'm good. You're good.

I'm fine.

Who got shot?

All right, officer?

More than all right, Captain.

I feel like my dad and granddad finally love me again.

Good work, Elizabeth.

No, no, no, no. Not good work. Mom, don't do that. Don't run towards the

Sorry, Teddy. I had to.

Thank you, Captain.

Huh?

Are you in trouble?

What does that mean?

Nothing. I had a little bit of a skirmish. He was incredible, Mom,

to that Tully guy.

And we just have some old issues that I think became new ones.

I'll be right back, Teddy. No, no, no, Mom, where are you going? I'm okay,

honey.

How are you doing, Nolan?

I've been better. I meant what I said. I'll call my lawyer friend, Diane.

And she specializes in criminal defense?

Oh, she does everything.

She's amazing.

Oh, thank you.

And I'm glad you're not dead, Elizabeth.

Me too.
