- Hey, sis.

No, I'll be home soon.

I was working.

Okay, fine.
I wasn't working.

No, I'm not gonna
tell you about it.

Okay. Bye.

- Keep your mouth shut
and do what I say.

- Please.
I have money in my purse.

- Shh.

There you go.
Get in the car.

- Hey! Help!
He's got a gun!

- I have your wine, sir.
- Ooh, nice.

I can't believe
we're really doing this.

I mean, we've only been talking
about it for, what, 10 months?

- I had to do my due diligence.

- I bet you did.

Wait. Be honest.

Did you run my name through one
of your FBI databases?

- Oh, I am gonna have
to plead the Fifth on that.

- Oh, my God.

Cheers.
- Cheers.

- I'm very excited,

but I'm also not opposed
to the idea

of one day maybe getting
another apartment.

A new one, some day.

One that would be ours,
you know?

- Your point?

- That I'm thrilled
to be here with you,

regardless of whose name
is on the lease

or...how many other men
may have slept here.

- Uh-huh, yet you work for
the most progressive senator

in all of D.C.
Hmm.

- Yeah, you're right.
I'm lying.

I'm a woke modern liberal

who doesn't really care
how many men slept here.

Oh, God.

- But...

I do care about us.

A lot.

And I just wanna be sure
that this

isn't just

an experiment.

- It's not.

I promise, okay?

- Okay.

- I'm sorry.
- No. It's okay.

- It's urgent.
I gotta go.

- What do we got?
- Two hours ago,

a woman named Addie Ricard
was abducted at gunpoint

and thrown into the trunk
of a car.

We're still canvassing,
but it's a quiet block.

Not much to go on yet.

Her phone and purse
were found in the street.

- Addie Ricard.
The political reporter?

- Do you know her?
- Not personally.

But I've read her work.
- Okay. Any witnesses?

- Just one,
name's Derek Morales.

- Mr. Morales?

I'm Agent Bell.
This is Agent Zidan.

We heard that you saw
the abduction.

Can you tell us about it?

- It happened quick.
The woman shouted,

and then the prick shot at me.

Before I knew it,
he had her in the trunk

and was driving away.

Thank God his aim sucked.
You know what I'm saying?

- What did this guy look like?

- Hard to tell.

He was wearing a black mask,
about, uh, six feet tall.

I mean, they all look six feet,
but...

Oh, he held the gun
in his left hand,

if that helps.

- What about the car
that he forced her into?

- It was a sedan.
It was blue.

The trunk was already open,
so I couldn't see the emblem.

I'm sorry.
That's all I could tell you.

- No, no, no.
You did good.

If you think of anything else,
please give us a call.

- Thank you.

So gun, mask,
trunk already popped.

This sounds premeditated.

Do you have any idea
where she was headed?

- According to her license,
she lives about a block away.

- It doesn't make any sense.
Why would someone take her?

What? Was it just random, or--
- We're not sure,

but we are doing everything
we can to track her down,

canvassing
the neighborhood,

looking at traffic cams.

- We do need to ask you
some questions.

The more we know
about your sister,

the better chance we have
of finding her.

When was the last time
you spoke with her?

- A little before 10:00?

She said she was
on her way home.

- How did she sound?

- Normal. Happy.

- Okay. In regards
to her work, her articles,

are there any angry readers
you're aware of?

- It's 2021.

You wouldn't believe
the hate she gets.

It's insane, but

those are just random tweets.

No one's ever made
a real threat.

- Been anything unusual
that's happened recently?

Maybe an angry stalker,

or a jealous boyfriend
or girlfriend?

- No. Not at all.

Addie for divorced three years
ago, but it was amicable.

Her ex lives in California.
They're good friends.

- Does she have anyone new
in her life?

- Yes, she's seeing someone,

but I don't know his name.

Addie only mentioned him
in passing.

She didn't wanna
talk about it yet.

- Was that weird to you

that your sister
didn't wanna talk about it?

- I mean, a little, but

she's funny like that.

- Did she seem scared of him
at all?

- No, no.
She was excited.

Like she was madly in love.

- What about the neighborhood?

Have you noticed
any strange cars parked?

Maybe a blue one?

- Not a blue one, but

two days ago, there was
this guy in an SUV

just watching our place.

At the time, I just thought he
was some kind of porch pirate,

so I got up the courage
to approach him,

but as soon as I got close,
he sped off.

- I would really love to have
two agents stay with you

in case a ransom call comes in.

Is that okay?

- Sure.

- Please let me know
as soon as you hear anything.

- Of course.

- Two hours ago,
Pulitzer nominated

"New York Times" journalist
and frequent cable news guest,

Addie Ricard, was abducted
outside of her house

in the West Village.
The man who took her

was armed, wore a mask
to disguise his identity.

Addie's phone and purse
were untouched.

It's unlikely this was simply
a crime of opportunity.

- There's also a new
mystery man in her life,

someone she wasn't
completely comfortable

talking about just yet.
Let's scrub her phone,

see if we can identify
exactly who that is.

- We should also pay
special attention

to her professional life.

We're looking into
what she's been working on.

Maybe she was on the verge
of something big,

a controversial scoop.
- Thanks.

I just got off the phone
with "The Times."

No recent threats.
No ransom demands.

- All right. Okay, well,
check with that cable news show

she was always on, see if
the network has been contacted

or is aware of any threats.

What did we learn
from her cell phone?

- The last call she made
was to her sister

right before she was grabbed,
but we can't read her texts.

She has an encryption app
on her phone.

- All right. We'll get
the CART guys in here,

see if they can crack it.
- Hey, Ian.

Where are we
on the suspicious SUV

her sister saw parked
in front of her house?

- Yeah, I just found a
security cam from up the block.

- Okay.
- This is from two days ago.

Just as her sister described.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Can you get a plate?

- It's a partial.
Running it now.

- Okay.

- Vehicle belongs to
Daniel Lavares, an ex-cop.

- Eyes up.

- Records show that he was
kicked off the police force

after a violent altercation
left the suspect paralyzed.

He also has several
restraining orders taken out

against him by ex-girlfriends.

- Let's find this guy!
Now!

- Wait. Do you hear that?

- OA?

OA?

Maggie, he tased me!

- What did you do with her,
huh?

- What are you talking about?
- Addie Ricard.

- I didn't do nothing with her.

- Yeah, but you're
staking out her place.

- What?

- She was taken last night,
put in the trunk of a car.

- No, no, no, no, no.
That's not me. That's not me.

- Oh, yeah?
Then why'd you tase me, huh?

- I tased you 'cause
you broke into my house!

You could've been anybody.
I was scared.

- What's your interest
in Addie?

Oh, come on.

- Start talking, okay?

Or I'm gonna take you in for
assaulting a federal officer.

Do you understand that?

- Yeah. I understand.

I've been working
as a private detective.

All right?

Someone hired me
to keep an eye on her.

Find some dirt, so--

- Who?
- Come on--

- Who?
- AIM.

They're some sort of
media watchdog group.

I don't know.
- Accountability in Media.

We know.
- Yeah, yeah.

So they think that, you know,

Addie's on the take,
in bed with some politicians.

They wanted proof, and...

I got it for them.

- What do you mean
you "got it for them"?

- Last night, right?

I caught her--
I caught her meeting up

with this bigtime
political operative.

- What's up?

- You need to see this.

That's Ethan with Addie Ricard.

Last night.

- Lavares' alibi at the time
of Addie's abduction

checks out.
He went drinking

with some cop buddies
after he took the pics.

- Okay. Anything else?
- Well, he described

the interaction between Ethan
and our victim as "heated."

Said it looked like
they were arguing.

- Well, Ethan's chief of staff
to Senator Hoffman.

They deal with hostile
reporters all the time.

- Right. Of course.

How long have you two
been dating?

- Excuse me?

- Well,

I mean, we're kind of
in a tough spot here, right?

- Ethan was home
at the time of the abduction.

He is not involved, Jubal.

- Yeah. Uh...

All the same,

maybe I should talk to him
on my own?

- I appreciate
what you're trying to do,

but I'm good.
- Okay.

- Yeah, I know Addie.
She's a political reporter.

Why? What's this about?

- When was the last time
you two talked?

- Um...

I don't know, about a week ago?

We talked about
the new tax bill.

Senator Hoffman's
one of the sponsors.

She was looking for a quote.
- Uh, Ethan?

This is last night at 7:45.

You and Addie Ricard.

Sorry, I--I thought you meant

when was the last time
we talked at length.

Last night's interaction
was pretty brief.

I didn't think it was relevant.

- Well, the question
was pretty straightforward.

"When was the last time
you talked,"

not "when was the last time
you talked at length."

- Going forward,

Ethan, please just respond
to the actual question

and let us decide
what's relevant, okay?

- Yeah. Sure.

Sorry.
Yes, you were correct.

I did, in fact, meet with her
last night for a few minutes.

I needed to talk to her
about, uh,

a personal matter.

- "A personal matter."

Can you elaborate?

- I'm sorry. I can't.

- Why not?

- Well, like I said,

it's...personal.

- Are you and Addie
romantically involved?

- Excuse me?
- We need to know

what you were talking about,
Ethan.

What the hell is going on here?

- Addie Ricard was abducted
last night.

- Abducted?

- Two hours
after she talked to you.

So, please, answer
the damn question.

- Okay, well, hold on a second.

I don't know anything
about that.

We were just talking.

- The photos suggest
you were arguing.

- But we weren't arguing!
We were...

We were trying
to resolve a problem.

- For God's sake,
stop parsing your words.

We need to know what
you were talking about.

- The senator, okay?

She and Walter are...

you know, they're involved.

And I just found out yesterday,
so I needed to talk to her

about the best way
to handle the situation.

- Because the senator
is married.

- Yes. Exactly.

But he's been separated
for the past six months,

so it's not as scandalous
as it looks.

I just wanted
a little bit more time

to figure out the best way
to disclose this to the public.

And then, she got upset.

You know, she thought
that I was implying

that she was looking
for publicity,

but we worked it out.

She said that
she would go along

with whatever
I thought was best,

that she didn't want
to hurt the senator.

- And do you know
where Addie went next?

- Yeah, she went
to the M Hotel

to meet up
with Senator Hoffman.

- And what about you?

Where did you go?

- I went home.

To the apartment that I share
with your boss.

Isn't that right, Izzy?

- Yes.

- I'm just doing my job.

- I understand.
- Okay.

Well, we are gonna need to talk
to Senator Hoffman right away.

- I get it.

Is there any chance you guys
can do this discreetly?

Maybe meet at his house
instead of his office?

- I--I had no idea.

I texted her this morning.
She didn't respond.

Sometimes that happens.
She gets busy at work.

- You two were
seeing each other?

- For a few months.

- Anything unusual happen
last night?

Maybe an argument?
- No. Of course not.

No. Things were great.

We got together around 8:00

at the M Hotel,
near Bryant Park.

Had dinner, a bottle of wine.

I gave her a birthday gift.

It was a...

It was a great night.

- What happened after dinner?

- We went our separate ways.

Headed home around 10:00 or so.

- Okay. We'll need someone
to substantiate that story.

- No, of course.
Talk to my driver, Ron.

He picked me up at 8:00,
dropped me off around 10:15.

- The driver confirmed he took
the senator home around 10:00.

We're missing something here.

If this was about money,

we would've heard something
by now.

A ransom demand delivered
to Addie's sister

or "The Times,"

but her abductor could've
killed her on the spot.

Instead he took her.

This was not
a crime of passion.

He wanted her alive.
The question is, why?

What does he want from her?
- It could be personal.

Or he could be some kind
of sexual sadist or predator.

- Jubal, I was going
through the security footage

from outside the hotel.
- Uh-huh.

- When Addie exits
around 10:00,

she's wearing a watch
that she didn't have before.

Look.

- Yeah. I see it.

Oh, the senator said
he gave her a birthday present.

Wait. Why?

- Well, it's a limited edition
Crowley Tempus smartwatch.

Means it's got a data plan.

We may be able to track her.

- Jubal, we're here.

- Okay, signal is up ahead
and to your left.

About 50 feet.

It's moving, but slowly,
so probably on foot.

- We got a few dozen homeless
in the area.

No sign of Addie.

- Keep going.

Signal is about 30 feet,
due north.

- She could be
in one of those tents,

but they aren't due north.

- Witness said our abductor
was left-handed, right?

- Yeah.

- Hey. FBI!

Stop! FBI!

- Hey!

- Hey!

- FBI! Don't move!

- Where is she?

- What--what? Who?

- Addie Ricard.
Where is she?

- I don't know any Addie.

I haven't done anything wrong.
- Yeah?

Where'd you get this watch?
- I found it.

I swear to God, I did.

- Show us where. Now.

Couldn't be more than
15 or 20 minutes ago.

It's not even dry yet.

- This guy might've done more
than just take her watch.

- You got quite a rap sheet,
Mike.

Petty theft, possession
of a controlled substance

with intent to distribute,
and you want us to believe

that you just happened
upon the scene of an abduction.

- I didn't have nothing to do
with any of that!

- Okay, there's a lot of blood
in there.

The dogs will be here soon.

I'm sure if you're lying,
they'll be the first to know.

- But I didn't kill anybody.

I'd never do something
like that.

- Of course not,
'cause you're a choir boy.

Yeah, tell us what happened.

- There was this blue car
out back.

It looked new.
- You know the make?

- Chevy, I think.

- You catch the license plate?
- No. Didn't look.

I started walking over there
to, you know,

see if there was anything
inside, anything to steal.

There was a car seat
in the back.

They're real easy to pawn.
- Okay.

So you walked over
to the blue Chevy

looking for something to steal.
Then what happened?

- I saw this dude come out of
the warehouse wearing a mask.

And he's carrying a woman
over his shoulder,

so I got the hell out of there.

- Was she alive?

- I'm not sure.
She was bleeding.

- He put the woman in the car?

- In the trunk.

Then he drove off.

A few minutes later,
I went back into the warehouse

to see what the hell happened.

That's when I found the watch.

- And you didn't think
to call the cops?

You just took the watch,
went about your business, huh?

All right, take him down
to 26 Fed.

Check him for blood, hairs,
third-party DNA.

If he's clean, let him go.

- Okay.
Come with me.

- Find any prints?
- Not yet.

Just lots of blood and glass.

- I can't imagine what's
going through Isobel's mind

right now.

- You think Ethan's
really mixed up in all this?

- No, but...

I also know how many times I
thought I was sure about a guy.

You know, if Townes
is telling the truth,

if another man
was holding Addie here,

it would be the perfect spot.

Isolated,

very little foot traffic.

- The question is,
why'd he leave?

Why risk moving her?

- Hey, I think
I found something.

- Fingerprints
on the candy wrapper

belong to Viktor Branislav.

Blood on the floor is
a match to Addie Ricard,

which means we know Addie
was actually there.

We suspect Viktor is
the abductor.

We do not know for certain.
We need more proof.

Could be old Viktor
is just another squatter

with a sweet tooth.
- I don't think so, Boss.

We're scrubbing recent
NYPD car theft reports.

Found a blue Chevy Malibu
with a car seat

that was stolen two days ago.

- Okay.

- Guessing that's the vehicle
the tweaker saw,

so I pulled video from
the location of the car theft.

Take a look at the scar
above the right eye.

It's a match.
- It sure is.

That means Viktor Branislav
is officially a suspect.

What else do we know
about this chap?

- He's a Russian immigrant here
on an expired visa.

Works in real estate.
- He have a local address?

- No. Address
on his visa app's outdated.

No active phone, but I pulled
his State Department file,

and his visa application
was sponsored by his uncle,

Sergei Branislav.
- Okay.

What do we know about him?

- He's been here for 32 years.

He graduated from NYU, and,

like his nephew, he also
works in real estate.

He owns a bunch
of rental properties

and a few warehouses...

including the one
where Addie was being held.

245 Weller Road.

- He owns that building.
- Okay, okay.

Are Viktor and Sergei connected
to Addie Ricard in any way?

- I don't think so.
I've been running

all kinds of screens,
but I keep coming up empty.

- Hmm, what about
Senator Hoffman?

There a possible nexus there?

- I've been looking,
but so far nothing.

- So why would
two Russian immigrants

in the real estate business

grab up
a young female journalist

and not even bother
to ask for ransom?

- I can think of a few reasons,
all of them bad.

- Do these two have any priors?

Have they ever
been investigated

for any kind of sex crimes?
- I don't know.

The State Department
just flagged

my inquiry into Sergei.

I'm locked out.

- What do you mean locked out?

- No, that's a good thing.

Means DHS is probably
working the guy.

Kelly, reach out
to DHS Rep Belmont.

We need to see him ASAP.

- We've been up on Sergei
for seven months.

He's connected to
an organized crime syndicate

we've been focused on
that's based in Moscow.

- And how does he fit in?

- He's their connection
stateside.

He's more of
a peripheral player.

- Peripheral?
How so?

- He invests the syndicate's
dirty money.

Buys up commercial real estate
all across New York.

He handles the money,
but otherwise

keeps his hands clean.

- So why would someone
like this

want to abduct a journalist?

- I'm not sure, but
we just found some video

we think might be related
to your case.

This stays within the room.

- Oh, yeah. Of course.

- Sergei owns a restaurant
in Brighton Beach.

He and Viktor spend
a lot of time there.

We've had a pole cam up on it
for the past three months.

- Okay,
when was this captured?

- Two hours ago.

- That's Sergei Branislav.

And that is
Senator Walt Hoffman.

- What the hell
is going on here?

- This footage is
from two hours ago?

That means that the senator
went and talked to Sergei

directly after
we questioned him.

- And shortly after that,
Sergei's nephew, Viktor,

took Addie from the warehouse.

- It looks like the senator
tipped him off.

- It's possible, but
until we know that for sure,

we proceed with caution.

I'm gonna reach out to Ethan,

set up a one-on-one
with the senator.

- Okay. Great.

- I know I'm the new guy, but--

- Yeah, we're all thinking
the same thing here.

- If and when
it becomes an issue,

I will ask Isobel
to step aside.

- Hi.
- Hey.

Thank you for doing this.

We just need
to cut through the crap

and figure out what's going on.
- Yeah, well, um,

that's what I was
hoping for too, but...

the senator changed his mind.

He called his lawyers.
They're inside right now.

They told him
not to say a word.

- But you said
that we had a deal.

- I know, and we did,

and I told him that
he should talk to you alone,

but then, you know,
he called his lawyer.

Hey. Izzy.

Izzy. Hey!
Listen to me.

Wait.
Hold on a second, okay?

I know how this looks, okay?

But the senator is...concerned,
you know?

He just--he wants
to be careful.

- Careful?

When his girlfriend is missing?

When her life is at stake?

- I am trying to help you here,

but there is nothing
that I can do.

I don't know what's going on.

- Are you sure about that?

- What's that supposed to mean?

Are you suggesting that
I'm holding back information?

From the FBI?
From you?

- You get paid
to protect the senator,

who is refusing to cooperate,

so how could I possibly
trust you right now?

- Because it's me!

Izzy!

Shoot.

- Keep going.
Hey.

- Senator Hoffman lawyered up.

- He lawyered--I thought--
- Yeah, it didn't work out.

So for now, let's assume

that that is
an admission of guilt.

I want you to dig into him

and his chief of staff,
see what you can find.

In the meantime,
let's focus on Sergei.

We know that shortly after
his meeting with the senator,

Addie was moved
from the warehouse,

which means he had
to contact his nephew, Viktor.

Where are we on the phones?

- As far as we know,
they were using burners.

Sergei doesn't have a cell
in his name.

- What about the restaurant?
- We checked.

Landlines haven't been used
all day.

- Okay. We're trying
to track down the burners.

See where they were bought,
get their serial numbers.

- And that could take hours,
maybe days.

- So let's try
something different.

Come at him more direct.

Spook him.
See what he does.

- And more importantly,
who he calls.

It could lead us
right to Viktor.

- Yeah, I like it.
Just don't tip your hand.

If he thinks we're onto him,
he's more likely

to pull the plug
and kill Addie,

assuming
she's not dead already.

- Isobel.

So I guess things are getting
kind of complicated for you.

Maybe I should take over

just in case the facts
break the wrong way.

We want to make sure
you're protected.

- Yeah.
Yeah, that's a good idea.

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

- Excuse me?

NYPD. I'm looking for, uh,

Sergei Branislav?

- Those two in the back
may look like

a couple of affable old-timers,

but they both have Glocks
in their waistbands.

Okay.

Hey.

- Can I help you?

- Sergei Branislav?
- Here we go.

- I'm here to notify you
of a vagrant that we arrested

breaking into one of
your buildings in Red Hook.

Address, 245 Weller Road.

- A break-in?
Okay.

Was there any damage?

- Some broken glass.

We also found some blood.

Guessing one of the vagrants
probably cut himself somehow.

- And you already arrested him,
right?

- Mm-hmm.
- So what do you need from me?

- Well, we're trying
to ascertain

if there was
any property stolen,

so if you'd like
to make a statement,

we can, um, file a complaint,

press criminal charges.

- Yeah, I'm sure

whatever losses, if any,
were minimal,

so no, just let the guy go.

That's fine with me.

Thank you.

- Tiffany, you gotta
keep him talking.

We're not there yet.

- You sure you don't want me

to write up a report?

You know, the insurance won't
pay if you don't file charges.

Let me show you this guy.

- Um...

- How much more time
do you need?

- To capture all his cell data
and the call logs,

another 30 seconds.

- Sorry. One sec.

Um, just give me

one second...

So sorry.

One sec.

Oh! Okay.
Here we go.

Name's Mike Townes.
He's a local meth head.

Likes to break into cars
and buildings.

You know, it won't be long
before he's robbing people

up close and personal.

If you file a charge,

I can violate his probation
and get him off the streets.

- Got it.

All done.
- No, I'm good.

Thanks for notifying me,
though.

- Appreciate your time,
Mr. Branislav.

- Focus on the outgoing calls
he made

directly after the meeting
with the senator this morning.

- There's only one.
It's to another burner.

- Location?
- Yeah, pinging it now.

I just got a signal.
It's in Flushing, Queens.

- Can you narrow in?
- Working on it.

- Hey, guys, Sergei just texted
the same burner phone.

"Cop was here. Getting worried.
Coming to you."

Then he told the guy
to turn off his phone,

said he was gonna do the same.

- Hey, so Sergei's on the move.

Looks like he's going
to meet up with Viktor.

- Do we still have eyes on him?
- No.

We lost him when
he jumped on the BQE.

Got a BOLO out on his vehicle,
though, so...

- I just finished combing
through Ethan's phone.

He called Sergei's burner
two minutes after

he and the senator
talked to Maggie and OA.

- All right, grab up Ethan.
Bring him in.

- Yeah.

- All right, Ethan,
you got two choices.

Either you come clean about
Addie, Sergei, the senator,

or we're gonna charge you.

- Charge me with what?

- Obstruction,
lying to a federal agent,

and that's when
the fun really begins.

Racketeering, kidnapping--
- Look, I already told you.

I have no idea
who kidnapped Addie, or why.

- I'm trying to help you,
but I need you to cooperate.

- And I'm sorry, but
I am just as in the dark

as you are on this.

- You are the senator's
chief of staff.

It is your job to know.
You expect--

- Ethan.

This is your last chance
to come clean,

to tell us everything you know,

or we will move forward
with criminal charges.

- Okay, fine.

The senator told me

that the kidnappers
contacted him this morning

about a ransom, but he told me
not to say anything.

It would endanger her life.

And that is all I know.
I swear.

- Why did you call
Sergei Branislav?

- Sergei?

I never called that guy
in my life.

I don't even have his number.
Why...

The senator asked to borrow
my phone after the meeting.

He told me
his battery was dead.

- Okay. Do the senator
and Sergei know each other?

Are they friends?

Have they had business dealings
with one another?

- And why would Sergei take
Addie? What's his objective?

- I don't know!
I have no idea, you guys.

If I did, I would tell you.

- Jubal,

I'd like to speak
to Ethan alone for a minute.

You have one shot
to save yourself.

One.
Do you understand me?

- Why are you talking to me
like I'm a criminal?

- You're gonna wear a wire.

- A wire? Seriously?
What are you talking about?

- You're gonna
get the senator talking.

You're gonna find out
why Addie was taken

and where we can find her.

- I understand that
you're upset. I do.

But do you really expect me
to wear a wire

and sell out Senator Hoffman--
- Yes!

That is exactly
what I expect you to do.

- I can't do that, Izzy.

My career will be over.

- But unemployment is
a whole hell of a lot better

than prison.

- I tried to call you all day.

What's going on?

- You tell me, Walt.

The FBI just put me
in handcuffs.

They think that you and Sergei
have something to do

with Addie's abduction.

- What?
- Yeah.

They questioned me
for two hours.

- What'd you tell them?

- I told them

that I had no idea
what they were talking about.

No, no. Hey!
No, no. Hey!

Don't. Don't. Stop.

All right, put the phone down.
No more lawyers.

Not until you come clean
with me

and you tell me
exactly what's going on.

Look, I can make this go away.

Walt, my girlfriend is the SAC.

She calls the shots,

and she trusts me.

And I can get her to cover
for you, but I cannot do that

unless you tell me
exactly what happened.

Where's Addie?

- Don't push too hard.

- You want me
to walk away from this?

From you?
You say the word, I'm gone.

- If I knew where she was,
I'd already be there.

I love this woman.

I will do anything I can
to save her.

- Okay, good.
That's good.

But what does Sergei have to do
with any of this?

Sergei...

Sergei thinks
I screwed him over.

He and I,

we had a deal.

I told him about

the federal redevelopment plan
in Ozone Park,

that it was a done deal.

And out of pocket, he started
buying up adjacent land,

and he was gonna kick me back
10% of the profits, but--

- The redevelopment funds
already went to Staten Island.

- Yeah.

And I told him there was
nothing I could do about it.

- So what is this?
Some kind of retaliation?

- Well, yes. Yes.

He already floated me
some cash.

He floated me some gifts,

and he told me
if I didn't repay him,

that he'd kill her.

- If this gets out,
you're done!

You're going to jail, Walt!
- You don't think I know this?

Why do you think
I've been going so crazy?

But I'm good.
I'm good.

You see, I've already come up
with 700,000 in cash.

Sergei said he'd take that
as a down payment,

so all we have to do--
all we have to do

is to get the FBI out
of my life

for a few hours.

And we're good.

- Tell him that
you can do that.

You're gonna talk to me,
make up some lies.

All right, everybody.
Get ready.

I want every corner
of this ransom drop covered.

- I have a clear view of
the park and Senator Hoffman.

- So far no sign
of Sergei or his nephew.

- Yeah, same here.

We don't have a visual
on the suspects or the vehicle.

- Scratch that.

Blue Chevy Malibu just landed.

Grabbed a piece of curb

on the south side
of the street.

- There it is.
Yeah! We see it.

- The car seat's still
in the back. That's it.

- All right.
Look alive, everybody.

We got eyes on Viktor.

- Yeah, we got eyes on Sergei
as well.

- Okay, what about Addie?

Any sign of her?

- No. She might be
in the trunk.

- All right,
let them clear their vehicle

and head toward the senator.

Wait for OA and Tiffany,
to make the arrest signal.

- Ready to go?

- Jubal, it looks like
Viktor's got a weapon

under his jacket
on his left hip.

- We've got no other cameras
in the park?

- Nothing.
- All right, we lost visual.

So make contact
at your discretion.

- Viktor Branislav. FBI--

- Shots fired. Shots fired.
Agent down.

Hey!
- I got Viktor.

- Show me your hands!

Senator, don't even
think about it!

- Hey! Stop running!

- You all right, Scola?
- Yeah.

- Scola, you all right?

- Bruised a rib.
Didn't break the skin.

- Hey, you good?
- Go.

- Okay, we need
to secure the vehicle

to see if Addie's in it.
Let's go.

- I'm on it.

- Hey, Addie.

I'm Maggie Bell.
I'm with the FBI.

Everything's okay.
You're safe now.

I promise.

Jubal, Addie's okay.

- Good work, everybody.

- Great work.
- Yeah.

- Good job, guys.

- You all right?

Okay.
You're okay.

- All right, and you
already had these marked

in the log, right?

- Addie, how are you
holding up?

- Okay, I guess.
- Addie!

- Ma'am, you can't
come this way.

- Please, that's my sister.
Can--Addie!

- Let her through.
- Okay.

- Oh, my God.

- All right.
What do you got?

- How 'bout that, huh?

- Hey.
- Hi.

- So thought you'd want to know

we just spoke
to Senator Hoffman.

- Good.

Um, listen,

I know that
my relationship with Ethan

put you in a tough spot,
and I'm sorry about that,

but I really appreciate
the way you handled it.

- Sure thing.

So...

what are you still doing here?

- Mm, I don't know.

Avoiding the inevitable,
I guess.

- Yeah, I imagine
you and Ethan have

a lot to discuss.

Good news is,
he was telling the truth.

End of the day,
he was in the dark just

trying to do his job.

So at least he is
who you thought he was.

- I know, but

I'm afraid I--

I'm not who he thought I was,

you know?

Sometimes...

Sometimes I think it's easier

to assume someone's
being dishonest,

right?

- It's the cost of
doing this job for so long.

You know,

maybe you should go home and

tell Ethan
what you just told me.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- What's with the bag?

- I, uh,

booked a room at a hotel.

I just need some time alone.
That's all.

I'll call you tomorrow, okay?

- For--for what it's worth...

I am sorry.
