oh my God this is gonna be my

alright lieutenant at about 10 minutes

walk me through this as fast as you can okay

the victim is a 16 year old boy named Malik Farrah

site manager found him here this morning at 8:30

looks like he was shot 3 * 4

actually he's got one in the back

boy falls he turns over

he tries to crawl away he falls over onto his back

so Malik here was looking straight up at the killer

when he got blasted in the chest

Mikael evidence suggested there were three people here

including the victim

we have three different pairs of male shoes

these footprints here are Malik's

the blue tape those over there are the shooters

the red tape as the third

set over by those car trademarks

so fellas anyone know why

there's a dead Arab teenager in the middle of nowhere

the kids not from around here

not that anyone is from around here

but we found a library card in his backpack

that's from Mayflower Academy

Malik might be a rich kid

what else did he have detective bro

some sheet music bus schedule

change of clothes toothbrush and some sandwiches

looks like he was going somewhere

maybe he was meeting the person in that car

got surprised by the shooter

and then explain why Malik brought a knife with him

what knife over here

let's start at the beginning

so we got three people there's Malik and over there

there's the guy in the car

we believe Malik was looking to meet up with

and then there's our killer

now we follow the kid's footprints

he walks towards the car

and then from behind comes the killer

Malik and the killer struggle for a moment

Malik stabs him probably in the leg

cause there's a blood trail

and looks like the guy was dragging his foot

or maybe limping

how do we know it was the boy who had the knife

we found a slit in the pocket of the jacket

with a knife cut through

commander this boy was scared of someone

so Malik stabs the shooter

maybe in the leg Malik starts running

Bam shooter hits boy in the back

well maybe

we found two casings over here

where the two of them struggled

and then three more up by the body

probably from the chest wounds

and then three more a little further on

I mean it was night time

so the site manager I interviewed

said that

nobody from the development company has been here

for 48 hours

so this could have happened during the day yesterday

well not exactly

because it didn't stop raining until about 6 p

m yesterday

and these muddy footprints were made

sometime after the storm Detective

how did all these people get here

I think it's safe to assume they all drove

we only found evidence of one car sir

look we should probably widen the search perimeter

get some more personnel

can't spare the resources right now

lieutenant

it was the murder suicide in Hollywood last night

besides the evidence seems pretty much localized

well we won't know that unless we expand the perimeter

after 4 months you boys should realize

we're not playing this game by Atlanta rules anymore

okay

someone gets samples of the blood to the left

those casings go to ballistics

you check with the local hospital

see if anyone walked in with a knife wound to the leg

and try and wrap this up

lot of people dying in LA this week

I don't know why

wow 5 mile running

15 minutes that's pretty amazing

how far did you get this time

all the way to that pastry shop

I hate you know

I have an idea

why don't you call someone from work

and ask him out to lunch like who did you ever call

Talbat did you tell

I don't have time to have lunch with me

besides he's been resigned back to s I d

really

when did that happen nice

Thursday

Daniels was sent to liaison with Homeland Security

I got an email from her Taylor's

using my paid administrative leave

to break my squad apart

well you got them

sorry

Sanchez and Prvenza

I'm sure they would love to hear from you

they're in the same situation you are they are not

Sanchez and Prvenza

are being investigated by internal affairs

and if prevents I hadn't left his gun

and his desk drawer in a liquor bag

and Sanchez hadn't shot that guy four times

the FBI would be using facts

that a federal agent was shot to death

in my murder room

by one of their own protective witnesses

to ruin my career and you know it

you know it anyway to not have this argument again

I'm not the FBI I just worked there

and paid administrative leave is not all bad

you're getting a check to just hang out

while the bureau finishes their investigation

if you don't wanna have lunch with someone

why don't you use that time

to finish off some of the many projects

you've started

or maybe

clean them up I can't have lunch with anyone today

because Pope has called me in for another meeting

and he won't say what it is

so it's bad

and if you could

just find out what the FBI is saying about me

maybe I should just start looking for work

I will tell you immediately

you know I would

honestly I would

okay I

hey 4 months seems long

but it's routine for investigation like this

right now I have to uh

I have to go to work I do

I do I have to go to work

but look after you see Pope

you'll call me okay okay

and I love you I love you too

you gotta go okay

what about Malik's family Mikhail

they're Lebanese father's deceased

mom works nights

has no idea why Malik would be out that late

he never did that before doesn't have a car

and the mother said he never run away

what else oh

Malik uh

was some kind of hardcore pianist

played in competitions

didn't have time for girls or friends

Flynn anything from the hospitals

last night was a rare one

not one stab wound reported in all of LA County really

does anybody have any ideas about this

N L E

R N L

W L on the boy's hand

could be initials maybe a girl with a long

long very long name

come on Ross

hurry up okay

see show what we found casings

these different colored lines with the pass

are three players took

this is Malik this is the killer

and this is the guy from the car

casing subject to the right of the gun

so we can tell where our shooters stood

from the rounds that he fired

1 the killer grabs the kid

and they struggle and the gun goes off

2 he shot Malik in the back from here

3 he shot at the guy in the car once here

twice here and the last three casings

the killer limps back to Malik

and shoots him in the chest

now going back to the vehicle

wait a minute Ross wait a minute

give me this

now look where the assailant grabbed Malik

the bruises on the boy's neck

indicate that the killer had him

in some kind of serious chokehold

Sergeant Gabriel

now he could have strangled him then or shot him

he had his gun out instead

the killer shoots forward

trying to hit the guy in the car

Malik stabs the sail and he takes off

killer shoots him in the back

but even after shooting him

he doesn't finish him off

he walks right past him

trying to shoot the guy in the car

Malik was not the primary target

but Malik is our victim

Ross you were saying something about the vehicle

the killer's blood trail stops here

so it's probably where he parked

excuse me

over here

the guy who ran away fishtails off in his vehicle unhit

we found no evidence of broken glass

paint chips or bullet fragments

and how did Malik get there

you remember the bus schedule

we found in the kid's backpack

there's a stop about three quarters of a mile away

I contacted the MTA

they tracked down the driver of the bus last night

he said he remember seeing Malik get off around 10 p

m so

the kid walks almost a mile in the dead of night

to the middle of nowhere

and he brought a knife with him to a gunfight

why

alright

Detective Ross and Mikhail

see if you can speed up the DNA test from the blood

on the knife

Gabriel Flynn

why don't you two focus on that murder suicide for now

Ross and Mikhail can handle this

oh and thank you everybody thank

thank you

oh I'm sorry

will um

Chief Profile was told that you were ready for me

no we are

an old friend of ours would like to speak with you

you remember Andrew Schmidt

Andrew

what what are you doing here

nice to see you again too Brenda

oh I'm sorry ha

I mean um

it's it's nice to see you

but what am I doing here

she was always very quick to get to the point

wasn't she

and you don't seem to have aged at all

neither of you sir

she's also one of the best liars I have ever known

as to why I am here

Mr Smith thinks

he might be able to make the federal investigation

into the shooting in your squad room go away

uh pardon me Andrew

cause that's a very generous offer

and it's good to see a friendly face

but why is the CIA interested in helping me

oh they aren't

in fact the CIA wants you to help them

and if you did the company

would make certain that you got your job back

as a means of expressing that thanks

and if I don't

then there will be nothing to thank you for

okay

how can I help

an Arab boy named Malik Farah

was found murdered this morning

Commander Taylor is investigating it

with what's left of your squad

but Mr Taylor

lacks critical information

necessary to solving this crime

the LAPD has its own intelligence division

they can handle this unfortunately

Malik's murder is proof that

there is a significant breach in agency security

the company could not safely rely on official channels

which is why they've reached out to retired personnel

like you and me

they don't trust around people they do not

and all you need for me

is to investigate the murder of this boy

here's what I can tell you in advance of an agreement

the death of Malik Farrell

was almost certainly a mistake

the intended victim if he's still alive

is in terrible danger

we must do everything we can to save him

lastly

the person who is responsible for this must be found to

briefed and held accountable

I need my squad to do this

I can't give it to you legally

you're still under federal investigation

if Andrew can make this go away when I'm done

why can't he do it now there is a fear of

related to your past behavior

that

you might be tempted to substitute your own agenda

before ours

well

how can I be expected to conduct this investigation

right under Taylor's news alone

I didn't say you had to work alone

I said you can't have your squad back

legally

how you manage your resources is up to you

uh how was your memory

holding up it's excellent if you could uh

come to this address

this evening at 9:00

and Brenda please be sure you're not followed

I'll see you tonight

be very careful

ah

I I hope you have a written agreement

stating that if I solve this murder for you

I get my job back oh

I do I do please sit

uh

here are some files you will want

a database one of our laptops

and a phone with your hello number

when you wanna check in

identify yourself as Gwen and ask for Mr Schmidt

and they'll find me oh

and here's the agreement that you need to read and sign

before we can proceed

oh voila

thank you you're welcome

huh

odd isn't it

how our enemies never change

during World War 2 they recited mine comes

while shoving people into gas chambers

and during most of my professional life

they shot you in the back of the head

quoting marks and angles

and now they misuse the Quran

same people

different books

what was Operation Fireproof

your signature please

thank you

Operation Fireproof was a collections network

comprised of four agents

who were recruited from within the Los Angeles

Iranian community

Fireproof's focus was on farm nationals

who were trying to obtain nuclear weapons

technology for Taran and for a season

fireproof was considered successful

until all four of its agents were murdered

one after the other two weeks ago

and the case officer in charge of Operation Fire Proof

Larry Cole is he still alive

yes

and that's troubling

I'll say

why roll up the chain and leave the anchor in place

this Malik for all tell me

how did a CIA officer get involved

from Adoles Lebanese concert pianist

one day last September

Mr Cole was intercepted in an LA parking garage

by this boy Malik

who quietly proceeded to recite

the real names of every member of Operation Fireproof

fireproof was highly classified

so there was only one way

that Malik could possibly obtain that information

the agency has a mole

I've always preferred to use the word traitor

especially when blood was spilt

and our trader is feeding information

to a terrorist organization

we know this

because Malik described the source of his knowledge

as a highly trusted contact within the army of Allah

now Malik's contact was willing to defect to us

on two conditions first

that we provide him and Malik

with immunity from prosecution

and then that we should grant them both US citizenship

I'll see you tomorrow good night

I'm sorry I'm a bit on edge

so did Larry Cole tell his bosses about Malik

not at first

it took Mr Cole a month to make sure the boy was safe

but then when he reported Malik's existence

no one believed him yeah

well the story is spectacular

and this friend of Malik

this terrorist contact in the army of Allah

you think he'll lead you to your traitor

perhaps

and what do you want me to do

catch Malik's murder or locate this contact

I should like you to do both

I'm just um

I want my job back

but I'm a criminal investigator Andrew

finding out who killed Malik

that's my profession

handing over potential to victors

to the CIA

without knowing why or what you gonna do with them

I don't do that anymore

I believe that the army of Allah has collected enough

separated plutonium to create an atomic bomb

I need to find that separated plutonium

and I need you to help me

stealing information

passing secrets reading other people's mail

blackmailing farmers

lying to your friends

and your loved ones about your daily lives

we are most days gray people doing gray jobs

shadows in the world of black and white

but then you know

every once in a while

we are offered the opportunity

where we have the chance

to do something that is absolutely right

to its very core

this is one of those times Brenda

I'll help you Andrew

if I can talk to who I want

people will cooperate

company people yes

Richard Branch chief of our outpost in Los Angeles

if you tell him what you want

Richard will arrange it

this friend of Malik's

what position does he hold in the army of Allah

I don't know how did he communicate with Malik

I don't know what's his nationality

I don't know what was he look like

I don't know how old is he

I don't know and how the hell you plan on finding

he's probably on the database

of possible terrorist associates I was given access to

terrorist associates

how many names on that database

approximately 60,000 oh crap

now I'm getting irritated

why are you even looking for this guy

if he's not the killer because his life is in danger

and because he might have information the CIA wants

let's get back to that for a minute

I still don't get

why the CIA is asking you to do anything

I told you already lieutenant

they came to me out of the blue with this offer

and if it gets us back in the squadron

don't get yourself chief

I'll help you out I got nothing else to do

but I could find the Lindbergh baby

and it wouldn't get me back into our squad room

no no

no the LAPD is retiring my ass

I won't let them don't make promises you can't keep

so

where do we start

well um

I don't fully understand how Lee came to be

where he was so I wanna see where he died

but I wanna see like he did at night

and we might need a little help

thanks for your help lieutenant Flynn

I know you have other work

that's okay chief

I've got Gabriel covering it

besides it's a murder suicide

except for the paperwork it kind of solves itself

anyway the crime scene was right through this gate

that's where he died I wanna find out how he got there

well

wouldn't he go into the main road if he was in a car

but he was on foot

excuse me

how are things going with Taylor

oh just great

he's been passing investigations off to other divisions

and counting them as cleared

so on paper we're doing 30% better asshole

look what there what's that

an illuminated marker who would notice that

someone who's looking for it

wow wow wow

this is creepy

you want me to hold you

okay

N&L now let's go north and look left which way is north

north is this way

north

and look left

look at that

okay last one

go west and look left

I told Taylor we should expand the crimes no

this is phosphorus

and I wouldn't have shown up in the daytime anyway

let's keep following links directions

how does she know about this stuff

so uh chief

the crime scene is just up that hill a piece

so all these markers were

suddenly

could find his way while being sure he wasn't followed

he would have arrived here

feeling like he would have surveillance

and he waited until the guy in the car drove up

was there anything in his knapsack he could have used

a signal's friend not true

wait wait what about this

what are you looking for

a transmitter huh

that explains how Malik was followed here and why

he didn't know it

so Taylor is investigating the murder of Malik

from the boy's end and we better leave him to it

so

let's discuss what we know about the guy from the car

Malik's friend first

he's foreign because one of the things he asked for

was US citizenship

and he asked for immunity from prosecution

so he's participated in criminal activity

probably terrorism

we also know that he communicated with Malik recently

because

the boy had freshly written directions on his hand

and I think that

we can assume that the guy from the car

picked the rendezvous point

we also know he got there sometime after 6

when it stopped raining

because the guy used to Mark Malik's route

would have washed away in the rain

and we almost have his height in a size 12 shoe

plus running back to the car

his stride was at least 5 feet long

so he's gotta be 6 feet tall

now you know what shh shh

the guy let's call him Mr t

t for terrorist

so Mr t has been in LA longer than just yesterday

because the place he chose for the meeting with Malik

is not on a lot of tour guides

Brenda come to bed let's wrap this up

uh we still have not narrowed down very much who Mr t

might be

and we know nothing of how communicate with Malik

um this is gonna be hard lieutenant Flynn

if you and sergeant

Gabriel could copy the Malik murder book for me

that Taylor finding out about it

and um if the killer's DNA came back from that knife

I'd like that too please

yes ma'am

I'll be anyway I can

but mainly because I really miss hearing the word

please

uh lieutenant

province and I are going to look for the killer

without creating too much attention

how do you intend to do that

by going where Taylor can't

good night good night sergeant

thank you thank you

wait wait

wait wait a minute

you you

you're not gonna tell them anything about this

operation fireproof

I don't know enough about myself yet lieutenant

that's why tomorrow I'm meeting with some people

put it together this uh

Richard Branch

who heads up the CIA show here in Los Angeles

he's gonna take me around

this is dangerous

we know five people already connected to fireproof

you've been murdered so if anything happens to me

I'm gonna need you to be able to report

on the substance of what I've done

but you can't be at any of the interviews

and the CIA can't know about it

okay double 0 7

just tell me what you want me to do

Buzz Watson how can I help you

Chief Johnson wants what

push the other button

I can't hear very well you know

it'd be easier if you drove

and let me handle the equipment

since when have I ever wanted to make things easy

for you

alright

so Richard how long have you been chief of that post

here in Los Angeles two years

so I was in charge out here during summer fireproof

but I didn't know what the operation was about

until Andrew showed up asking questions

and what was that

right after Larry Cole was fired

oh I thought Andrew didn't come to fire

precision started done

no no

he was here much earlier than that

okay pull over bus

pull over then stop

pull over pull over

give me a second I might

ought to tell you that

Elaine Donishu is angry about this

to her way of thinking

she organized fireproof perfectly

and it's still a big success

so be careful how you approach her

she can be a raving bitch

thanks for the advice

and by what name would you like to be introduced

uh he can call me Brenda the Raven Bitch

and our old friends

hello hello

my name is Cynthia I won't bother to ask your names

because I know you don't lie

my mother is expecting you in the back

I'd appreciate it

if you kept your questions to a minimum

even though she's desperately lonely

she's been emotionally exhausted from the way you

people have treated her so

hurry it up thank you

Brenda Lee Johnson

which of my old students could

Andrew of Santa more lighten my mood

Richard go to view to come

nice to see you too Elaine

I said this all out last night

well Cynthia was asleep

she's angry on my behalf you know

did you hear Brenda Richard is my new boss

one day I'm reading his reports at Langley

feeling slightly sorry for his backwater posting

and the very next week

I am shuffled off to be officer and residence at UCLA

writing up little summaries on foreign exchange

students such a change of pace

I hope you like the cake it's store bought

but from a good store devil's food

thank you Laine

that's so nice of you so how is Andrew anyway

I heard he looks horrible

someone's a cancer hope that's not true

so

I was wondering if you could tell me about Operation

Fabric of course

that's why we're sitting here

isn't it

because Andrew says fireproof blew up in my face

which is complete bullshit

I made coffee anyone

not me thank you

okay so the setpiece after the invasion of Iraq

the CIA's Domestic Activities Division

approves a collection operation

codenamed fireproof

Fire Proof's first recruited agent

turns out to be a gold mine

Mr Mohammad New Ball an Iranian banker living in LA

with connections to the army of Allah

he was transferring large wads of cash

from an army of Allah charity

to a Russian entrepreneur

former KGB officer named Voytsky

have you ever heard of a military base in Russia

called Krasny Sesensky

it translates into English as red pants

I remember it's a nuclear misincillation correct

that's what Mr Varsky sold to the army of all

my dear

a decommissioned missile in parts

useless as a weapon

but still I find that a little hard to believe Lane

what makes you think

the army of Allah was able to pull off

by a Russian nuclear missile

I don't think I know we found actionable intelligence

proving that's what they were gonna do

and I convinced the company's board of directors

to let Voytsky sell

the army of all of that missile

and to focus every conceivable surveillance asset

on following that missile

from Red Pines to Berlin and Elaine succeeded

didn't she Richard

yeah we got the missile back

plus a fair number of their support network

so what makes Operation Fireproof Failure

Larry Cole and that boy Malik

who suddenly pops up out of nowhere and tells us

we were duped kicked out

misled

that Operation Fire Proof was acting on framed material

that while we were focusing on Red Pines

the real money was changing hands elsewhere

and that supporting

we rolled up was all part of a Kleenex network

tissue terrorist manufactured to be thrown away

so Elaine found the missile

yes she did

and some very bad people

and what Elaine get for it

her daughter's greenhouse banished

banished

I don't wanna spend the rest of my life

watering my daughter's plants

I want my job back Brenda

Pretty please

I want my job back

so if not red pants

where was the real money changing hands

if you wanna know what Larry Cole thinks

talk to him

and you wanna hide this because

the murder book that you Tina Flynn

got for me is all I need for right now

besides when Larry Cole gets here

I don't want him to see all these picture

all over the place or how little we know

uh by the way

are you carrying your gun

you mean

the gun that got us both put on administrative leave

that gun better that one than none at all

do you want some help I got it I got it

please have a seat

Mr Cole there's so much I've been waiting to ask you

I hardly know where to begin

but first looking at your personnel file

let me say how sorry I am about your recent divorce

and losing custody of your son

like that

then getting fired with not very good references

that's tough

and then just

when you're facing all those personal

and financial pressures all of your agents are murdered

and I'm leaked too

I think

you were the only person familiar with all the victims

is that right obviously not

can you think of anyone else who knew them

while they were alive I mean

no you know

Aline Donna humid a suggestion that we should discuss

she believes you made Malik up out of thin air

because no one else ever spoke to him or saw him

just you

do you have any idea how we can confirm your report

well how about this

the kid said it was dangerous and now he's dead

but how do we know

you weren't just waiting around

for the first dead Arab teenager

to turn up in the news

that you didn't latch on to Malik's murder and say oh

that was the boy I was telling everyone about

you never identified Malik for

until after he was dead I was trying to protect him

well you didn't do a very good job did you

I have a copy of everything that the LAPD

has compiled in this investigation

and there is nothing here

indicating how we communicated with this contact

inside the army of Allah

do you have any idea how they treated

messages with each other no

are you by any chance trying to protect Malik's friend

no it's been suggested that Malik was running away

but the only ID found in his knapsack was library card

where might his passport have been

he didn't have a passport

he was living here illegally

we have DNA from Lee's killer

anyone you can think of

we might match those results against

if you wanna accuse me my DNA is on file

Andrew can get it for you

look I am not a killer

Malik was real his information was real

this whole Red Pines thing that Elena so proud of

it was a whopping big misdirect

wow we were bluffed into using

all our assets to cover the missile

the real action was going down in obnance

thank you Richard

but I don't need answers from you

well but you're asking the wrong questions ma'am

do you even know what Russia stores at dominance

about 60 tons of separated plutonium

but it doesn't take 60 tons to make a bomb

does it no

only takes 20 pounds about that much

our scientists turn up their noses

that separate plutonium

it's not as good as the stuff we use in our bombs

but it will do the job

is that what Millie told you the army of all had done

misdirected our assets so they could smoke

a separated plutonium out of Obnitsk

and a round stainless steel container

about 10 inches in diameter

made to look like an oversized hockey puck

and this Mr New Ball

the Iranian banker that you leveraged into helping you

did he misdirect you about red pants

no no

Nobel never knew what he was paying for

he was a cut out a go between

we got the intelligence about the missile

from the seller Mr Voitzky

I uh

I trained a young girl

Dora college student

used her as a honey trap

she seduced Foicki had an affair with him

whenever Voicki took her out

we would go through his stuff

Dora yes

as another one of your agents who's no longer with us

you seem to have been close to her

training a young girl to seduce older man that's tricky

how did you manage that or should I ask your ex wife

moving on what did Voytsky say when you picked him up

we didn't pick him up

the company felt that Voytsky was the only

ongoing connection to the army of Allah

and we felt it was important to leave him out there

out where Mr Cole

and by where I mean his address

okay chief

a voice is parking outside his apartment building

he's getting out of his car now

uh huh hold on hold on a minute

oh Chief

Chief he's limping towards the front door

what he wants to do good Lord

birds drop faster hang on

he didn't see you did he

no no

no no

he didn't see us uh huh

okay yes ma'am now we'll wait for you

sure he didn't see you I'm positive

lieutenant you okay

uh oh yeah

yeah

wait hold on a second

hope told us to bring some extra stuff

okay

lieutenant

you're gonna have to wear a gun sooner or later

and I feel sooner very strongly right now

Sunday morning 6:14

Mr Voorski

yeah Mr Voorski

you two turn around

James we need a warrant for that

oh you do

we're on administrative leave you two stay right there

Kowitzki Kowitzki

Mr Kowitzki

yeah Mr Kowitzki

Mr Kowitzki

lieutenant preventor please pull down Mr Voysky's pants

what pull down his pants please

okay what's going on in there

you two uh

we're just checking to make sure we're alone

stay by the door

Mrs Quinn

I need Mr Schmidt please

hello chief

I found the man of key of Malik just named Botsky

ring a bell

dear God

so as far as I'm concerned

my work here is through

if you want my continued assistance Andrew

identify Malik's friend

finding your mole and the separated plutonium

we're gonna have to change rules

what do you want

I want my job back with my squad intact or I hang up

walk away and you clean this mess up on your own

so Andrew what's gonna be
