6:15 -- why is everybody
up already?

At their age, they're probably
just happy they're up.

( chuckles )

( knocking )

Henry? You hungry?

Ma, how many times
do I have to tell you

don't interrupt me
when I'm working?

I'm making waffles.

You can't work on
an empty stomach.

It's not good for you!

( knocking )
DON: Mrs. Korfelt.

It's the FBI.
Open up.

( door opens )

MOTHER:
Couldn't you come back later?

My son doesn't like to be
interrupted while he's working.

We have a search warrant.

Ma'am, you're gonna have to open
the door right now.

Henry!

Smoke. I smell smoke.

( smoke detector blares )

Guys, he's running.
He's running.

Copy. We're on our way.

( tires screech )

Turn off the engine!

Now, put your hands back
on the wheel.

Do it!

Don't move.

Step out of the car toward my
voice. Come on.

What the hell were you doing?

Just making things a whole lot
worse for himself.

Is what he was doing.

Korfelt's facing a couple
of years for forgery.

Why pull this stupid
stunt with the car?

Maybe this is part
of the answer.

Wasn't just making passports.

Car registrations, gun permits.

Automobiles and weapons.

You might want
to take a look at this.

What is that? Code?

I think I know
how we can find out.

Again. Let's see.

Okay, see?
What am I doing wrong here?

I'm telling you, Larry.

It's that 11th critical fold.
You keep...

I know. I know.
I keep impinging

upon my laminar boundary layer.

Right. Which results
in a high Reynolds number.

I can't. No, I can't do this
anymore. I can't.

Hey, hey. Don't get all
Fleinhardt on me.

It's just the Physics Department
Paper Airplane Contest.

Flein... Fleinhardt?

Since when did my last name
become a predicate adjective?

Since your students started
using it that way.

Here's a different design.

Uh-huh.

And it's much more forgiving in
the build phase.

- Try that. Try that.
- Let me try this.

Hey, Don.
What's going on?

Just work, guys.

- Who made this?
- Me. Why?

The wings are a little thin
here, buddy.

Hey, wait, wait.
Let me see this.

CHARLIE:
Forgive me if all my years

of advanced applied mathematics
take issue with that assessment.

Yeah, well, you'll forgive
me if all my years

of high school
detention say I'm right.

You go ahead.
You make those wings wider, it'll fly.

What's going on?

Some idiot tried to run over
one of my agents this morning

over what we thought
were fake passports.

He left this.
So be careful.

It's a transposition cipher.

Can you break it?

Yeah. I'll need some time.

Well, how long?

'Cause something's not sitting
right about it to me.

Well, I can already tell you
the basic context of this

and it's not about passports.

What's it about?

There are letter groupings here
that I've seen before

when I consulted for the NSA.

- What?
- Standard code references

for a very specific type
of operation.

What kind of operation?

Don, it's a plan
for an assassination.

An assassination on U.S. soil?

Yeah.

Charlie, how can you be sure

if you haven't decoded the rest
of Korfelt's book yet?

Pattern recognition.

Everybody here does it
all the time.

I mean, you've all played
Scrabble, right?

Your mind knows language.

It sort of automatically
searches for groupings of letters

that makes sense to us
that make a word.

Well, my mind knows codes
and ciphers.

I can't help but recognize
these patterns.

These groupings
are abbreviations.

They're not encrypted.

Abbreviations for what?

Types of killings.

"Open. Secret. Lost. Safe."

- Open?
- "Open,"

if there's no need
to hide the murder.

"Secret," if it has
to appear as an accident.

You're sure about this?

I mean, Korfelt hasn't even
started talking yet.

I've worked with the National
Security Agency

on intercepts
of actual covert communications.

I checked these abbreviations
against my logs,

and yeah, they're authentic.

I've notified Washington.

They just wanna know as soon as
there's a threat to National Security.

Well, Korfelt's involvement
suggests that the assassin isn't local.

He needs a passport.

So the killer needs to get
inside the country?

Unless he's already here.

So, uh, what's this one about?

Possible assassination.

Assassination?
Who was killed?

No one, as far as we know.

At least not yet.

You know, when it's done right,

you never do find out
who did it.

Kennedy, Dallas, '63.

You're still waiting
for an answer on that one.

Hmm.

I suppose this will take
you the rest of the week, huh?

Pretty much. Yeah. Why?

Uh, it's Aunt Irene's 80th
on the 27th.

Aunt Irene hates you.

No, she doesn't hate me.

She was just a little disappointed
at your mother's choice of a spouse.

Yet you're still going.

Well, she's still
your mother's aunt.

Doesn't change just because
your mother's not here.

Yeah, well, I went to her 75th.

She made me dance with her.

A very slow dance.

I really could use a wingman
on this one, Charlie.

I'm sorry.
Even if I could make the time,

I'm supposed to go
to a concert on the 27th.

Why don't you ask Don?

No, Don's too busy.

I'm busy, too.

I didn't mean it that way.

Anyway, this is not about you.
It's about me.

Yeah.

You do realize who has to dance
with her now.

You assaulted a federal officer
with a deadly weapon.

It was a Volkswagen.

You think it's funny?

Hey, how's it going?

Okay.

So what does all your
behavioral science training tell you

about a grown man who still
lives with his mother?

Probably about the same as
two brothers still moochin' meals

at their dad's house
three nights a week.

Hey, technically,
it's my brother's house.

But, okay, Megan.
I see how it's gonna be.

I just call 'em like I see 'em.

Uh-huh, all right.

I don't know anything
about a murder.

That's not gonna fly.

We cracked your code.

We know you provided
documents and vehicles

and weapons to an assassin.

You know, we don't need
to talk to him anymore.

We should be talking
to his mother.

It's her apartment, right?

You can't do that.
My mother has a heart condition.

Well, then start telling us
what we want to know

or think about a defibrillator
for mommy.

He'll kill me.
Don't you understand?

Look,

Henry, I'm all you got.

I don't know names.

Only a code reference --
"Condor."

And who's the target?

He's a Colombian;
a kid, I think.

His father was an activist
who got killed down there.

Mm-hmm.

Immigration list of registered
aliens from Colombia.

Korfelt's description fits
Gabriel Ruiz, 24.

He's a film student.
He seems clean.

Why him?

His dad, Raoul Ruiz.

He was big in
the reform movement.

He disappeared three years ago
with an older son, Estevan.

A month ago a crew digging a
highway bed uncovered the bodies.

Think this kid knows who killed
his father and brother?

Well, if he did, I think he'd
have been dead a long time ago.

So why kill him now?

Well, finding the bodies
was big news.

Maybe it brought
the spotlight back.

Yeah, right back onto the last
surviving son.

You know, even if I wanted to

I can't go back.

- No?
- No.

After the murder of my family,

I was exiled by
the Colombian government.

Exiled? For what reason?

For being my father's son.

Doesn't really matter, though.

I have no intention
of going back.

Colombia holds nothing
for me anymore.

What about what happened to your
father and brother?

It's not a mystery, Agent Eppes.

The government's corrupted
by the cartels.

They murder anyone
who goes against them:

prosecutors, judges,

reformers like my father
and my brother.

And you never thought
about revenge?

I was just 21 living in Bogota
when they were killed.

My mother died when I was young.

I had no family, no money.

Whatever friends my family had
were frightened back into their holes.

Gabriel, is it possible
that whoever killed them

thinks that for some reason
you pose a threat now?

How?

I'm a third-year film student,
who owns a small cafe.

I loved my father
and my brother,

but their country
isn't mine anymore.

You know I talked to my dad once

about America when
I was applying to schools.

Oh, yeah?

He wanted me to get
an education here,

but he warned me that America could
make you forget where you come from.

After that first night arriving
in Los Angeles,

I prayed to God
that my father was right.

- ( door open )
- Hey.

You still up for lunch?

Yeah. Hey, I spoke
to my buddy.

He says I can get those
tickets for the concert.

- For the White Stripes.
- Hmm.

Charlie, what is all this?

The methodology
of assassination.

You have a lot
of variables here.

I mean, isn't there any way
to narrow them down?

Well, knowing how
the assassin intends

to carry out the
killing would help.

For instance, if he has to
make it look like an accident,

that would limit his methods
and opportunities.

Charlie, where did you learn all
this stuff about assassination?

If I told you that,
I'd have to kill you.

( laughs )

Okay, seriously.

Seriously.

DON: What do you know about
something called Condor?

I am an official
of the Colombian government,

and it's not appropriate for me
to address certain topics.

Counselor Benavides,

you think it's appropriate
for your country

to play out its problems
on the streets of L.A.?

It's a protocol from the past.

Operation Condor.

A pact made in the '70s
by six South American nations

to kill each other's
political enemies.

It involves the use
of a highly-trained assassin.

So why would a protocol like that
be taken out against Gabriel Ruiz?

The name Ruiz is very powerful
in Colombian politics.

It carries great hope,

much like the name Kennedy
once carried.

And just like John, Jr.,
who didn't want to go

into politics
after his father was murdered,

everyone expected that
sooner or later he would.

So, kill him before he has
a chance to change his mind?

An obvious murder would
cause an outcry in Colombia.

So he'd have to make it
look like an accident?

( door opens )

Hey, Charlie.
Listen.

We're thinking Gabriel's assassination
is going to look like an accident.

Awesome.

That gives us a better chance
of winning this game.

What game?

CHARLIE:
Hide-and-seek.

What are you talking about,
like the kid's version?

A mathematical approach to it, yes.

See, the assassin must hide in
order to accomplish his goal.

We must seek and find the
assassin before he achieves that goal.

Ah, behavioral
game theory, yeah.

We studied this at Quantico.

I doubt you studied it the way
that Rubinstein, Tversky

and Heller studied
two-person, constant-sum

hide-and-seek with unique
mixed strategy equilibria.

No, not quite that way.

DON:
Just bear with him.

The concept's simple.
It's almost instinctive, but

when an assassin has many
opportunities to hit his target,

it gets complex.

Imagine the game Battleship.

Okay, it's essentially
a hide-and-seek game.

Except let's say
the ships can be moved.

One player tries to get his ship

on several squares
of opportunity

before all his ships are found.

Now, suppose that the player
hiding has limited options.

He can only move one ship at
a time, one square at a time.

That would give
the player seeking him

the ability to calculate
his likely moves.

So you're saying if we know
Condor's opportunities,

we can predict the attacks.

Not predict as much
as calculate the probabilities.

If Condor has to make
this look like an accident,

he can't use,
say a gun or a bomb.

He has to avoid witnesses.

He's limited.

He's limited
by locations? Methods?

That's right.

How long will it take you to
come up with some probabilities?

Soon. Of course
the accuracy will improve

the more I know about
Condor's abilities.

So, I think you should talk
to the man you arrested again.

This is the U.S. Marshal
coming down. Open the gate.

The van should be on the south
side of the building. Over.

MAN ( over radio ):
Copy that.

KORFELT:
Can we walk a little faster?

What's your rush?

I'd just like to get to prison
as soon as possible.

( gunshot )

OFFICER:
Everybody down!

OFFICER:
One-L-ten. We're a code four.

RADIO DISPATCHER:
Copy that, one-L-ten.

No evidence of the sniper
set up anywhere.

COLBY:
It's a type-four flak jacket.

It should stop
the high-velocity round.

But this thing went right
through the trauma plate.

That's a .308 caliber
tungsten bullet.

Not the kind of thing we're
gonna find at the corner gun store.

No one knew about the move?

I mean, not even the jail staff?

Shooter must've been
waiting for him.

All right, look.

If we're saying that
Korfelt was supplying Condor

with everything from
documents to weapons,

then we should be running down
every single name

in that code book. Okay?

I want to get someone on
that kid Gabriel Ruiz today.

You got it.

How'd you come by all this hard
data on assassination techniques?

I have a friend at the NSA

who has a friend at the...
at the CIA.

Yeah, don't even tell me.

You know what's interesting?

When a death must
look accidental,

we automatically
reject modern weapons

in favor methods that have been
around thousands of years.

Drowning. Smothering.
Blow to the noggin.

I think we have to give
value to defenestration.

What's...
what's "defenestration"?

( chuckling )
Charles, come on.

When I was an undergrad,

even math and science majors
had to have English.

I took English, Larry.

I didn't memorize
the dictionary.

Okay, well, the ideal
of the Renaissance Man --

it's just still a goal with me.

Defenestraton is...

the act of throwing something
out the window.

Oh, I've got that covered.

In fact, the most effective
method of killing a man

is to drop him
onto a hard surface

from a height
of at least 75 feet.

It works every time.

Yeah, but does your subject
often stand by high windows?

I have no idea.

And I see you have
his schedule here.

But do you know if he
jaywalks in traffic?

Attempts home repairs?

I get it, I get it. I should be
aware of all the opportunities

that Gabriel Ruiz might present.

Well, yeah, or you don't
have all the data.

I have to actually talk to him.

Yeah, it's field work.
It's just field work.

There's no substitute.

So Korfelt's got no activity on his
credit cards for the last three weeks.

Yeah, he was laying low.

There's gotta be something.

Yeah.

Rumor has it you
got an eyeful in Afghanistan.

It wasn't so bad, you know.

College degree kept me
off the front line and all.

That's why you joined
the Bureau?

Want to get some action?

What else was I gonna do with
three years of interrogation techniques?

Wait a minute.

Korfelt's mom.

We ran her credit cards, right?

Yeah, it should be
in that package.

Bingo. Used at a bookstore
on Melrose.

Five times
in the last two weeks.

What's the address?

6-2-1-5 Melrose Avenue.

Look at that.

It's only a couple of blocks
from the Colombian Consulate.

I wonder if he had
a contact there.

Let's get a list of
Consulate employees.

See if Ruiz recognizes
any names connected

to the murder of his family.

Yeah. Will do.

Look, I'd feel more comfortable

if someone else got Gabriel's
schedule. All right?

Well, that's not as effective.

See, I need to work
the data against

the risk/success scenarios
that I've established.

I have very specific
questions, Don.

- Besides, with a secret assassination,
- All right.

- The odds of an attack are less likely
- All right.

when the target is in
the company of others.

All right, all right.
I'll set it up.

But I'm gonna have
an agent with you, okay?

I mean, I gotta answer
to Dad about this.

Yeah, well...

somehow you managed
to escape an invite

to Aunt Irene's 80th
birthday party.

- What?
- Lucky you, huh?

Yeah, Dad invited me.

He didn't even bother
asking you because...

well, because you're working.

Well, I'm in the
middle of a case.

Yeah, you're always in
the middle of a case. So?

Hey, don't... Charlie,
I've done my share.

Yeah, I live with him.

Well, that's your choice.

Don, I can't go.

I have concert tickets
for that night.

It's for me and Amita.

Charlie, well, I've got to
find an assassin, okay?

So assassin, concert.
Concert, assassin.

You tell me.

I don't know why everything
always has to fall on my shoulders.

- What are you talking about?
- Dad doesn't want to go alone.

Think about it.

I'm not sure I really understand
why all this is necessary.

I thought it was
explained to you.

Well, they told me there was a
chance someone might want to harm me.

But I told them
there was no reason to.

Now you show up --
some kind of a...

assassination specialist.

I'm a mathematician, actually.

- Mathematician?
- Mm-hmm.

I consult for the FBI.

I'm here to try to get some
parameters of your movements.

Your daily routine.

Where you go and
how you get there.

You're studying film, right?

Yes, and I own a small cafe.

What?

Does your cafe have airtight
walk-in refrigerators or freezers?

Yes.

You need to avoid
those -- problematic.

I also need to list your hobbies
and regular activities.

I like hiking.

Hiking could also
be problematic.

It's easy to stage an injury

or leave the person alone
to die of exposure.

Also, during certain seasons,

hunting accidents.

Someone really is trying
to kill me?

Eppes -- that was the same name
the other agent had.

We're brothers.

You don't worry about him?

With his job at the FBI?

I guess I just don't
think about it that much.

Neither did I.

I was a youngster.

My brother always tried
to keep me away from the work.

I heard about what happened
to your family.

I'm very sorry.

Okay. Well...
what about driving?

Or just even walking
down the street?

Driving would be better.

A staged vehicle accident often
results in injury but not death.

So you're saying that there's
no way to keep myself safe.

You should be taking
precautions.

Like what? Like not walking?
Not working?

I don't want this.

Any of it.

So you just tell
whoever is behind this

that I want nothing
to do with it.

Nothing.

These new perimeters you gave
me should prove to be very useful.

Well, they're more than
perimeters, though, aren't they?

I mean, what we're really
looking at here

is all the ways Gabriel Ruiz
might die in the next few days.

Come on, your work didn't
create this assassin.

No, but until Gabriel
spoke to me he had hope.

Well, research can't be
performed in a vacuum.

I mean, the subject will be
changed by the process.

It's just hard to look somebody
in the eye and tell them

there's a strong probability
they're going to be murdered.

Oh, yeah.

But would you rather
less involvement

or a more accurate result?

ALAN: I thought I heard
somebody back here.

Larry.

So what are you guys doing?

Still working on Don's case?

A difficult problem.

Don's very lucky to have two of the most
brilliant minds of Los Angeles helping him.

It's not really the math
that's proving so difficult here.

It's encountering
the human stakes.

Charlie?

I never realized how hard
it must be for Don.

It's not easy
what he does, is it?

Uh, no.
No, it's not.

Did you ever try to talk him
out of doing that kind of work?

We are talking about Don, right?

See, Charlie, the thing about
kids is that, um,

you can't make them into
what you want.

You can teach them
values, character

and a little common sense.

But then you have to let go.

You have to let them become the man
or woman that they're intended to be.

That doesn't sound easy, either.

No, believe me. It's not.

Agent Sinclair here
for Gabriel Ruiz.

He's inside.

Is Charles Eppes still here?

Agent Eppes' brother
left a while ago.

All right.
How's it going?

Pretty good.

I don't see him in here.

What are you talking about?

Hey. Hey!

Help! Help him.

Hey!

Hey, out in the water!

FBI!

- What happened?
- I don't know.

I just saw him.
He wasn't moving.

Get him to shore.

Easy.

Ready?
One, two, three.

Call 911.

Ruiz's blood alcohol
level was .2.

And a preliminary tox report
found diazepam.

That's a muscle relaxant.

I got your message.
Is he all right?

Yeah, he's all right.
He's recovering.

- What happened?
- We don't know yet.

David found him
unconscious in the canal.

Did you talk to the guy
that rescued him?

What do you mean
"the guy who rescued him?"

When I got there there was a guy
pulling him out of the water.

Basic protocol of
a secret assassination:

Be the first respondent.

I think you were face to face
with Condor.

I don't remember any man.

I certainly can't describe him.

What's the last thing
you do remember?

Your brother and I spoke.

Then I went and fixed
something to eat.

What'd you eat?

Just something from my cafe.

You also had something to drink.

Some wine.

The wine from the same cafe?

Yes.

You went for a walk alone.

You avoided the agent
sent to guard you

when you knew your life
was at risk.

It was foolish.

I know that now.

I mean you go walking
around these canals with alcohol

and enough diazepam in
your system to knock you out.

You think I did this to myself?

Well, my brother said
you were pretty upset.

I went to clear my head.

That's all.

All right, this is a list
of names of people

who work
at the Colombian consulate.

Take a look at it.

Put a mark next to any names
that are linked

to your family's enemies
in Bogota.

BENAVIDES: So you believe
the Condor is real,

and that they have one of their
assassins here in Los Angeles.

I also have evidence
linking that plot to your office.

What do you want?

I want the name of the person
running the operation.

Look, Henry Korfelt's
credit card records

show him buying coffee
for himself and someone else.

Five times.

You believe it was me?

Think I'd be here if I did?

Look, I don't know anything
about a murder plot.

Hold on. This is a list of people
who work at the consulate.

Now someone on this list does.

Even if what you
are telling me is true,

by helping you, you're asking me
to betray a fellow countryman.

No, what I asking you to do
is save one.

( drums play intro )

( rock music plays )

♪

( knocking on door )

Charlie!

Hey.

Gabriel's new schedule.

He's following a far more
restricted routine.

Yeah, well, the thing is I don't
know if it's enough to stop Condor.

If I'm right,
it may alter his methods.

You see, he may be considering

a low-probability attack
because he thinks

that's what we won't
be looking for.

'Cause if he's trying
to outthink us

we're going to be trying
to outthink him.

It's "Cognitive Hierarchy."

A zero-step thinker will
play the obvious moves.

A one-step thinker will play
the non-obvious moves.

While the two-step thinker,
he'll consider both types.

Have you talked to your contact
at the consulate?

Yeah, I'm hoping
she'll spread the word.

But I don't know.

This type of conspiracy relies on
people feeling like they can't be touched.

Like no one knows
what they're doing.

Once they hear the FBI's
on this case,

It's likely to force a change in
strategy which I can account for.

So does that make me
a three-step thinker?

Keep working with me.
You'll get there.

- Shut up.
- Soon enough.

Soon enough.

You work it out with Dad about
Aunt Irene's party and your concert?

Oh, you know what?

I, um, I couldn't even
get the tickets.

So you don't have a date
with Amita?

No, uh, no big deal.

What is going on with you guys?

You've been playing this game
for like a year.

It's okay.

Charlie, when are you gonna
start living your own life

and realize that Dad
can take care of himself?

Look, I'll tell you what.

You help me catch this guy and I'll
go to Aunt Irene's next party, all right?

Deal.

- Hey.
- Where you been?

Local DEA.

Running down the names
from the Colombian consulate.

I got nothing; how'd you guys do
with Korfelt's known associates?

Charlie decoded a name
from Korfelt's book.

W. Wells.

Okay.

We ran down 47 people first
initial "W" last name Wells.

Found three of them with sheets.

One Warren Davis Wells
has a record for sale

and possession
of illegal weapons.

But aside from his name
in the book,

has no other ties to Korfelt.

Well, Condor shot Korfelt
with a high-powered rifle.

He probably got that locally.

Maybe Korfelt's
his L.A. contact.

We don't have an address on him.

But according to this,
he has a brother

who owns a computer shop
in West L.A.

Drive safely.

Hey, Amita.

Hey, Charlie.

How's the hunt
for Red October going?

You know, the assassin?

Oh, yeah, I'm working on it.

Listen, there's something I really
need to talk to you about, though.

Um, the concert.

I don't think I can go.

Oh. Too busy with the case?

Actually, no.
It's a family event.

And my dad doesn't
want to go alone.

I see.

You can have the tickets.
That's not a problem.

No, I can't.

I already bought them.
I bought them for you.

And it would be a shame if you
didn't go and have a good time.

Actually, Charlie,
I have other plans.

I'm going to San Diego.

Dr. Keppler's giving
a seminar at UCSD.

After what happened at dinner...

I'm sorry. I just...

I didn't think you were
actually gonna get them.

Right. No.

I mean,

we've talked about this
so many times.

I totally understand.
It's not a big deal.

I'm sure I can find somebody
who wants the tickets.

It's the White Stripes, so...

I'll see you later.

Okay.

( beeping )

Is Warren Wells here?

I don't know.
I'll go check.

Hold on.

We'll see for ourselves.
Sit down.

Get back.

Do not move.

- Put it down.
- Drop it.

Put it down.

Come on.

( gun cocks )

Put it down. Slowly.

Put it down!

Right now.

You know if you fired,
you'd have blinded me, right?

Should've closed your eyes.

Oh.

Looks like we got
a very different type of Mac.

Warren Wells did
a stint in the Army,

and then went to work
for a gun manufacturer.

Then he got into arms dealing.

But single point transactions.

Hard to acquire or custom-made.

Very hard to acquire.

I found this at Well's shop.

It's a FRAG-12 cartridge,

high explosive
fragmentation round.

( whistles )

What shoots this?

This Auto Assault 12
combat shotgun.

Uses a gas piston.
No recoil.

Fast and easy.

When you just really
got to kill someone.

If Condor's got
a gun like this...

The when Gabriel Ruiz
tries to run,

he's just going to be really
tired when he gets killed.

CHARLIE: Condor's decision to
employ this weapon changes everything.

I mean it's pretty hard to keep
the murder a secret, right?

Sure. And an open
assassination means

Condor's opportunities increase,
like five-fold, ten-fold.

Warren Wells' computer repair
shop got a new client two weeks ago.

The Colombian consulate.

Yeah, check it out.

Repaired six of their computers.

What's that mean?

Hard evidence of a link between the
consulate and Condor's weapons dealer.

And it gives credence to it being
run by someone inside the consulate.

Mm-hmm.

If that's true, it's a
connection we could exploit.

How?

By removing step-thinking
entirely.

It's like the game of chess...

where you must think first
before you move.

Each player trying
to outthink each other,

trying to guess
each other's moves,

each other's strategy.

The complexity of the game
requires multi-step thinking.

However, if one player can
create the illusion

he has committed
a zero-step move --

a move that would give his
opponent a significant advantage --

that can create a false step
of thinking in his opponent,

which will then prompt a move
that delivers checkmate.

You eliminate the need
for a strategy

by creating a move outside
the conditions of the game.

In other words, you
set up an ambush.

Right. Because if he's being run
by someone inside the consulate,

we use Benavides,
to make Condor think he's got

some kind of privileged
information.

And theoretically, he steps up
his game, right?

Right.

Gabriel's going back
to Colombia.

Going back
to Colombia? How?

My country's got a standing
exile order against him.

It's going to be lifted
in 48 hours.

I know nothing about this.

Where did you get your
information?

Seems your country's been after
a pretty sizeable DEA grant.

The U.S. decided to step up.

To get rid of its problem.

As soon as it's lifted, he's going to
be on a military jet bound for Bogota.

Until then, he'll be
under FBI protection.

I just thought you'd
want to know.

What do you expect me
to do with this?

I don't know, Sonya.

I wouldn't sit on it
if I were you.

I can't imagine your supervisors
are going to be too happy

with you withholding
information about

the well-being of one of
their citizens, you know?

COLBY: So, the trap at
the safe house is set.

If Benavides or anyone at the
Consulate is Condor's contact...

- Then Condor's up to speed.
- Yeah.

He's got to move fast. The
window of opportunity is closing.

That's right. And we've narrowed it
down to a couple hours. One location.

And agents placed strategically

to give the illusion
of an exposed entry.

The game has changed completely.

Yeah. Well, at least it's a game
we know how to play.

GABRIEL: So, we're just
supposed to sit here and wait for him?

Yep, that's pretty
much the plan.

And what makes you so sure
he'll really show up.

Actually, you.

Don't worry about it.
Everything's going to be fine.

That's why they call it
a "safe house."

FBI. Drop it.

FBI. Don't move.
Drop the gun.

Get your hands out
where I can see them.

Get your hands out.

Get them out.

Don't!

Who do you work for?
Tell me who you work for.

Sonya.

Agent Eppes, so I heard --

that the man you were
pursuing is dead.

Who was he?

Truthfully?

Yeah, truthfully.

I have no idea.

But I am very glad that you
succeeded in saving Gabriel Ruiz's life.

Come on.

You and I both know if whoever
put out that contract isn't caught,

that kid doesn't stand a chance.

Failed assassinations
rarely bode well

for the long-term health
of those who plot them.

We're willing to share with
your government what we know.

Yeah.

When your government shares
what they know with you.

What does that mean?

Well the truth is that the best
assassins in Colombia

are trained by your CIA.

I want you to remember that

the next time you talk
about Colombian problems

being played out
in the streets of Los Angeles.

So who was the Condor?

Prints didn't show up
in any database.

Not ours. Not Interpol's.

Oh, come on. Somebody's got
to know who he is.

He's not a ghost.

Just 'cause he's dead doesn't
mean there aren't a whole lot more

just like him out
there somewhere.

Yeah, Gabriel may be right.

There may be no way for him
to really save himself.

I appreciate you coming
to see me.

I wanted to see
how you were doing.

Well, thanks to you and your
brother, I seem to be doing fine.

It also gives me a chance
to thank you,

and to say goodbye.

I'm going back to Colombia.

Are you serious?

My exile's been lifted.

Gabriel, killing the assassin
doesn't make you safe there.

I wasn't safe here.

Still, your probabilities for survival

are way better if
you stay in America.

Truth is, I'm not
so afraid anymore.

Don't get me wrong.
I'm not any braver than I was.

It's just...

Somehow this Condor finding me

has given me a chance
to find myself, I guess.

Turns out, I'm a Ruiz after all.

What'll you do when
you get there?

I know I can't be my father
and brother.

All I can do is take
my camera down there

and try and tell their story.

And in telling theirs,
maybe I'll learn my own.

What are you doing here?

Hey, I'm ready to party
like it's 1899.

Lose the suit. Go find Amita.

Amita's in San Diego.

What?

Yeah, it's a long story.

Bummer.

Well we all got 'em, pal.

- Who got the tickets?
- Larry.

Larry's into the White Stripes?

Oh, now isn't this nice?

We're all going to Aunt Irene's
together, huh?

Yeah. You ready?

I hope you brought
your dancing shoes.

She hired a band.

Uh-oh.

Yeah, from the Big Band
era, I hear.

Yeah, well a little
Glenn Miller, a lot of drinks.

What could be better?

Yeah, just a word of advice.

Yeah?

Make yourself scarce when
the slow music starts.

Oh, Dad, you're
the designated dancer.

No, she hates me.
