Apparently not.

Short and sweet.

That's all I get?

New cases came in.
My mind's on that.

Something that big?

And after all the time

We made a promise

So this is you

It's not me being vindictive.

Vo and Raines are here.

I have to brief you guys

Yep.

Let's get into it.

James and Fiona Delvina,
out of Los Angeles,

were convicted
of bilking the U.S. government

out of 30 million
in COVID relief funds.

Thirty?

3-0? Phew, damn.

They fled the country
while awaiting sentencing.

There is a UFAP warrant
out for them both.

That is the compounding crime
that got us involved.

They also left behind
their two children,

Amelia and Gabriel, 16 and 12.

Money laundering,
identity theft.

Looks like
the parents have a history.

Fraud, lawsuits.

Yeah, they're
basically career parasites.

Now, I spoke
with the prosecutor.

Their sense is that
the wife is the brains

of the outfit.

The husband is the point man.

He's looking at considerably
more prison time

on the COVID charges

because most of his name's
on the paperwork.

We know how
they got out of the U.S.?

A friend of James,
Luan Sinani,

crossed into Tijuana
three hours

after their ankle monitors
were deactivated.

Two days later,
our legat in Mexico City

confirmed the couple paid cash

for two one-way tickets
to Tirana, Albania,

using their Albanian passports.
They have dual citizenship.

Legat in Sarajevo,
which covers Tirana,

confirmed
their arrival yesterday.

Have to believe
they're flush with cash.

U.S. was only able to claw back
5 million of the COVID funds,

- and 200
- K in cash and jewelry

was left behind
at the LA house.

Where are the kids now?

They're in LA
with the grandmother

on the dad's side.

Now, she did try
to get them two emergency visas

for a flight
tomorrow to Albania,

claiming that they need to be
with the family, she's too old,

and the media attention
is too much.

That request was denied.

Jaeger's gonna meet us there.
Let's hit it.

Are you coming?

Staying here in case I need
to cover the Legat's desk

across town.
- Ah.

She'll be patching
and helping out with the case.

We'll be in touch.

Go get 'em.

Wie geht es euch, Katrin?

German was one
of the few languages

I didn't take at West Point,
but I'm studying it now

in your honor.

,
but "wie geht es euch"

is for addressing
a group of people.

"Wie geht es dir" is
for addressing a single person.

- Oh, I just started yesterday.
- Oh.

Lieutenant Agnes Nika,
our liaison here in Tirana.

Agnes, this is the team.

- Welcome.
- Hi.

Any update on James
or Fiona Delvina?

Nothing yet.

What can you tell us
about them?

This way, please.

Fiona, maiden name Abazi, comes
from an organized crime family

here in Albania,
going back many generations.

Her father,
Lorik Kabazi, is the patriarch.

I have officers
monitoring the family...

covertly, of course.

How about the husband, James?

He came from a lower...

caste, we'll call it?

Do you have caste system
in United States?

Different name, but yeah.

Well, Fiona married down
in her family's eyes.

Have you heard anything about
where James and Fiona might be?

Again, nothing.

And it might be quite hard
to get people

to talk in these
extended families.

Here in Albania, it's all
about "besa," code of honor.

Well, we can put
out a reward for 20,000 U.S..

In Albania, that's, um--

Two million lek, roughly.

Yes.

That much money might be more
important to someone than besa.

Fiona's dad?
Where can we find him?

Screaming
at his granddaughter.

♪

Lorik.
My name is Sergeant Agnes Nika.

- I know who you are.
- Scott Forrester, FBI.

- Hi.
- Katrin Jaeger, Europol.

- Hello.
- Let me save you some time.

I don't know where my daughter
and her husband are.

We are looking for
a peaceful outcome to all this,

so any cooperation
you could lend

would be appreciated.

Look,
if anyone was to help James

and Fiona hide out in Albania,
it would be James' family.

Most of his family
moved to Los Angeles.

Why would they fly here?

He has a few cousins
in Tirana.

They'll do anything for him.

See, Albania is
not like America,

where if you're old or ugly,
you have to live alone.

Here, family counts above all.

Well, you just gave
a convincing argument

of why you
would hide them out here.

Yes, well.

That warm embrace stops
once you disobey your father

and bring shame to the family,

which Fiona did.

Embezzling 30 million
from the government

was shameful to you?

I find that hard to believe,
based on your record.

The scam didn't bother me.

It's America, right?

Grab what you can.
But marrying James did.

I even warned her,
if she was to become his wife,

she would be leaving us forever.

And now, here she is,
back in Albania,

apparently running with dogs.

And why would James' mother
back in Los Angeles

fly the kids here

and list you
as the host address?

Because she knows,

despite our differences
regarding her son,

I'll do anything
for Amelia and Gabriel.

May I return now?

Six million lek
in private lessons.

I'd like to see if it
was worth the investment.

Sure. Good luck.

Thank you.

Believe him?

Hell, no.

He's up to his eyeballs
in this thing.

Oh, mein Gott.

What's this mean?

Stop.

That's a real threat.

And I suppose now would be
a good time to tell you

that I can't guarantee
your safety here in Albania.

With the father's
organized crime ties,

they could be hiding

Yes, if the Delvinas
are comfortable

living underground

There are a number
of organized crime figures

wanted by
the Albanian government.

hit the mountains,

they've never been found.

I want you and Vo to pose
as State Department counselors

for the U.S. Embassy
to facilitate the handoff

with the family here,

we will take it from there.

And bringing them out here
isn't a little risky?

Well, I'll tell you

willing to take risks

on this job,

Get it done.

♪

Remember,
the children are U.S. citizens.

They don't have
dual citizenship here,

so they'll need to be made
available for check-ins,

their whereabouts at all times.

They also cannot leave
the country.

Yes, we understand.

Okay, so,

Hm.

A spinster.

My family treat me like dirt.

When they run out
of wine at a party,

they send me to go get more.

Fiona has always
condescended to me

since I'm not married

I need new tires for my car,
I go ask Lorik,

he tells me
not to drive so much.

If they want
to treat me like a servant,

then I will betray them,
like a servant would.

Does that answer your question?

It does.

And what are you gonna do
with the money?

My boyfriend lives in Greece,
but can't move here

because he hurt his leg
in a scooter accident.

So this money will help him
with his hospital bills,

we can be together.

All right.
We will get the cash.
