Previously, on Class of '09...

Out here, we shake each other's hands.

Well, I'm not here to buy a cow, sir.

NUÑES: Was it worth it? They revealed themselves.

Fuck you.

NUÑES: What are they planning to attack?

Us.

I get to see the expression on your face when you hear the news.

There are inexplicable arrests.

- You know it. I know it. - No, Senator, I don't know it.

Special Agent Poet, you've been lied to.

This system is making connections on its own.

This is an intelligence nothing like our own.

Suspect is entering the apartment. Copy.

Suspect is alone. No sign of his girlfriend.

Copy. Moving in.

FBI. Open up. Open up!

Hands up! Get down! Come on, stay down!

We should stay in the van.

Just get him! Let's go!

Damn it, get off of me!

Get off!

FBI! Stop right there!

Shit! Drew? Drew?

She was supposed to stay in the van.

Why was she there? The hell was she doing?

Hang in there.

This was my weapon as an agent. A SIG Sauer P228.

Did you ever fire it, ma'am? On duty, I mean.

No. I never did.

The Bureau's first official weapon, a four-inch barrel Colt Police Revolver

issued to the class of 1934 at graduation.

Today, the primary weapon we use is the Glock 23.

This one is called the Red Handle

because the barrel has been blocked and the firing pin removed.

During your training, you will carry these around the base.

We want you to get accustomed to the weight of them,

the feel of them, the idea of them.

The idea of them, ma'am?

What it means to take a life.

What it means to risk your life.

A special agent doesn't draw their gun unless they intend to fire.

If you decide that you cannot take a life, you cannot be a special agent.

When you receive your weapon, I'd like you to tell the class

about your own experiences with firearms.

You know your way around a gun.

I spent most of my adult life in a shooting range, sir.

What's the story of this range?

Chicago Gun Academy, sir. Ran by a lovely Vietnamese couple.

The people going there weren't dreaming of shooting anybody.

They just didn't want to be shot.

This is the first time I've ever held a gun.

NAZARI'S DAD: When did you apply?

Six months ago.

There wasn't any point in telling you, if I wasn't going to be accepted.

NAZARI'S DAD: You didn't tell us because you knew we'd say no.

NAZARI'S MOM: Why tell us now?

The next stage is the polygraph. So if I hadn't told you,

- maybe it would show up in my answers. - Hour, what are you doing?

- NAZARI'S MOM: You have a degree from MIT. - They like that about me.

Because nobody else would waste their education in this way.

This is not a world you know anything about.

NAZARI'S MOM: We take the metro to work so we won't be stopped in our car.

NAZARI'S DAD: We take the car on vacation so we won't be stopped at the airports.

I don't want to live that way.

- I want to feel part of something. - And this is what you choose?

- They want me, Dad. - But why do you want them?

What will they have you do?

- NAZARI'S DAD: Spy on your own people? - Papa, this isn't the secret police.

They must have carried out a background check on our family.

NAZARI'S DAD: You've brought them into our lives.

We have nothing to hide.

That doesn't matter. That has never mattered.

NAZARI'S MOM: Are you angry with us?

Is this about...

- something else? - What might it be about, Mom?

You were...

a lonely child.

- Perhaps, you're lonely still. - Maybe I'll always be lonely.

NAZARI'S DAD: There are other ways to feel a part of this country.

NAZARI'S MOM: And other ways to feel different from us.

Was it too much to hope that you'd be proud of me?

Could you lift your arms, please?

I can do that. No, it has to be me.

Can you lay your hands flat, please?

Could you explain what you're doing?

Nobody ever asks that.

There's a sensor in the chair that detects movement.

These are nomography tubes, measure your rate of respiration.

These measure electrodermal activity. That's for your blood pressure.

Test will take approximately two hours.

If your answers are unresponsive, it can take up to four.

You have to limit your answers to yes or no.

You can stop the test at any time, but to do so would constitute a fail.

And you have the right to an attorney, but to call for one would...

- Constitute a fail. - Hmm.

It's normal to be nervous.

I'm not nervous, I'm curious.

- Who interprets the responses? - I do.

How many tests have you done? Ah, hundreds.

There are 50,000 applicants to the bureau each year.

The government must have carried out millions of these tests.

- Over the years. - Do you...

collect the data?

We keep them on file.

- But is it on a centralized database? - No.

Doesn't it make sense to cross reference them

rather than rely on one person's interpretation?

There was the case of Wen Ho Lee, nuclear scientist at Los Alamos,

accused of being a Chinese spy. I know the case.

He passed the DOE polygraph, but the FBI re-examined the same results,

and they decided he was lying.

That he had slipped China secrets about the miniaturized W88 warhead.

Maybe if you collated all the data on a central database,

it wouldn't be so subjective.

Hmm.

You know, some people want to fail the test.

They deliberately flunk it in a way to drop out of the process

without losing face. If that's you, just say so.

Can we begin?

Excuse me for not shaking your hand.

- A Marine once told me... - I'm sorry, this Marine,

is he a friend of yours or...

Friend. Close friend. Patriot.

He said after a man kills for the first time,

the smell of his skin changes.

Your wife.

Was she the first person you've killed?

Well, I rescued her from squalor.

I fixed her teeth, her hair.

Overlooked everything she had to do to survive.

Yeah. Sounds like you overlooked quite a bit

because you couldn't see that she hated you.

What about your wife?

Looks like I made killers of you both.

I think it's safe to say that we had just cause, wouldn't you?

- "Just cause"? - Mm-hmm.

"Just cause." Ah.

Is that what you were looking for out at my ranch?

"Just cause." Hey, you've been looking for that your whole life.

Yeah, you got your badge and your gun.

All you needed was that "just cause" to get away with it.

To get away with it. Yeah.

Let's talk about that. Getting away with it.

Because getting away with it, I would have just strolled on your ranch.

And I would have shot you right between the eyes.

And maybe I should've because then your wife would still be alive.

My partner wouldn't be lying in a hospital bed,

and my wife wouldn't have been attacked. But I didn't.

No, no, no. I didn't.

Hmm.

You're the highest-ranking FBI agent in Montana.

What you doing on a routine piece of field work

if not hunting for folks like me?

Yeah, you've been dreaming of that day for years.

Let's... let's be very clear about something.

You may be many things...

but you were no dream of mine.

Have we figured out where they were driving to

- when they were caught? - We can't make sense of their route.

Is it possible that they were a diversion?

A diversion from what?

Nice job, Hour. You're a natural.

Tayo, you're up.

Nice job.

Shooter, stand by.

Nice shooting, trainee.

Shooter, stand by.

Why did you freeze, trainee?

No, I didn't freeze.

You didn't fire.

- I didn't consider her to be a threat. - Why not? She's armed.

But who is she? She's a woman. She looks like a professional.

My guess would be law enforcement. She's not holding a Glock.

Smith & Wesson 640. Approved for off-duty police officers.

So, you decided in that split second she was an off-duty detective?

Well, they also use those guns for personal protection.

She could be escaping a violent partner.

The test wasn't to write her biography.

But don't we have to? If we're going to take her life.

- Hey. - Hey.

I was proud of you back there.

You were proud?

- Uh, I said the wrong word, didn't I? - No.

Well, whatever the... the right word is, that is how I felt.

Isn't it up to you to decide what the right word is?

- You're a hard person to compliment. - And an easy one to offend?

I didn't say that.

Where'd you learn how to shoot?

My mom. Tin cans in the backyard.

She believed any woman who lived alone should know how to shoot.

- You? - My dad.

Hunting deer.

What am I doing?

I'm supposed to be working, you know, not going on dates.

- It's a distraction. - Falling in love is not a distraction.

I'm not in love.

I mean, these next five months decide the rest of our lives.

Any five months decide the rest of our lives.

Well, some months are more important than others.

I had friends in high school who messed around, and now,

they have all the time in the world, but they can't change their lives.

I know these feelings. It's guilt.

I feel the same way when I fall for someone.

I haven't fallen for him. I just... I like him.

For me the guilt is...

because I'm not married. For you, it's work ethic.

You know...

my mom never dated anyone.

When my dad walked out, she promised me she'd never bring a boyfriend home.

I never had a father. So she was going to make up for that.

But when I got older, you know and...

and realized what this was costing her, I... I should have said...

"It's fine. You can date.

"You don't have to be alone."

Maybe if I had...

It's fine. You can date. You don't have to be alone.

Can you come with me, please? Yes, ma'am.

At this point in the training, we repeat your polygraph test

and compare your responses.

Only me?

Why would it only be you?

All right.

Try to relax. I'd hate to fail you because you couldn't relax.

Have you ever taken any illegal narcotics?

Yes.

You listed on your application

the occasions you smoked marijuana.

- Are these still the only occasions? - Yes.

Are they after sex?

No.

Was your mother ever addicted to prescription medication?

Yes.

Have you ever been addicted to prescription medication?

No.

Have you concealed anything during this process

which might negatively influence your application?

Yes.

Your previous answer was no.

- You're changing your answer to yes? - Yes.

- Did you lie before? - No.

This is something new?

Yes.

For the next question, I'm going to release you

of the obligation saying yes or no.

What have you concealed?

Have you retaken the polygraph?

Last week.

- Oh, yeah? How'd it go? - The same.

You didn't say something to me?

What's to say?

Did you tell them about us?

About us. No. Did you?

I mean, they asked me if I was concealing anything.

They weren't talking about us.

How do you know? This is against the rules.

What rules? The agent trainee rules.

- You actually read those? - Come on. This is important.

This isn't high school.

So you don't think we need to let Gabriel and Drew know?

It's none of their business. Everything is their business.

Not us.

- Mind if I walk with you? - Oh, of course, not.

I wanted to talk about your polygraph.

Oh. Did I fail?

Look, I'm not speaking as your supervisor right now.

Okay.

Ever since women were allowed to join, there've been hookups and couples.

Some even end up getting married. Most don't.

I'm not trying to embarrass you.

I just wanted you to be aware of the reality of our situation.

Which is?

If it doesn't work out, the woman always comes off worse.

She always takes the hit.

It shouldn't be that way, but it is.

And I'm not telling you to do anything differently.

I'm telling you the way it is.

I appreciate that.

I was in an incident at the beginning of my career for which I was blamed.

It was an agent-on-agent shooting.

- You shot an agent? - No, I was the one who was shot.

- You said you were blamed? - I was.

One of the reasons they gave was they said I was in the wrong place.

And I was in the same place as the guys.

I'm so sorry.

Yeah. I'd be dead if they weren't such lousy shots.

Why did you stay in the Bureau? I couldn't let them win.

I was one of the best trainees my year.

So when I recovered, I just came back to the classroom.

'Cause that's the only place I was ever allowed to be great.

Hey.

Hey.

Can I come in?

Big house.

Yeah. It's nice when the girls stay.

Hmm.

How often is that?

Not as often as I like.

I'm sorry.

Yeah. So am I.

I leaned on my family connections to try and see if...

You know, who was an ally.

A lot of people are...

really worried about this system,

they think it's too big, it's too powerful.

A lot of people only express their concerns in private.

Not a lot are willing to help.

No surprise there, right? No.

Even talking can get people in trouble.

Some got mad at me for approaching them.

- Face to face, away from cameras. - Is your dad helping?

He knows people that know people. Including Senator Spencer.

So I'm trying to set up a meeting.

But like I said, people are scared.

Um... I wanted to say that, you know, before this...

goes too far, you don't have to be a part of the investigation

- into Tayo's system for my sake. - Poet, stop.

- You can do it on your own. I... I get it. - You...

You always had it in your mind that I preferred to be alone.

Because you always are.

If not me, okay...

but someone.

Am...

Am I a problem?

Every time something feels good, you mistrust it. Like it can't be real.

So you test it and you test it until it breaks.

And you say to yourself, "You see, I was right all along."

Is that why we didn't make it?

Maybe everything in my life seemed too easy.

And you wouldn't be another one of those things.

But I can tell you now...

loving you has not been easy.

And I've loved you for 20 years.

That is why you should not be involved in this.

Not this time, Poet.

This time you're going to have to tell me it doesn't stand a chance.

This time it's not going be me.

Could Tupirik have people infiltrate the Bureau?

Why not?

- There are checks. - The polygraph?

I lied on mine.

What'd you lie about?

Only the really important things.

At least a dozen manhunts

for additional key members

of Mark Tupirik's militia are underway in multiple states.

As the Bureau attempts to figure out the scope and scale

of his anti-government militia movement.

Firearms assessment is today.

- Officer? - You got it?

Thanks.

We go today.

I want you to take a look at the people on this screen.

Oh.

What are you afraid of?

You think you'd be too easy to read...

by a man like me.

The system is picking up

elevated movements. Pupil dilation, heart rate increase.

We've got one.

Next.

I've seen this man before.

Doing construction in the garage.

We think the suspect may be at Quantico.

On the signal, walk forward while shooting at the target.

Shooter! Shooter!

Hey! Run!

Please!

She's losing so much blood.

Good job.

There's an alert at Quantico.

- Hey, I need you to meet me right now. - Where? Here?

I'll take the heat if I'm wrong,

but we need to evacuate this building.

Okay, let's go.

Attention! Attention!

Please evacuate this building immediately. This is not a drill.

Attention! Attention! Please evacuate this building immediately.

This is not a drill.

Attention! Attention! Please evacuate this building immediately.

This is not a drill.

Hey!

All right, do the next pillar.

Hey, freeze!

Uh, easy. Easy. I just got to go get my supervisor.

Attention. Attention.

Please evacuate this building immediately. This is not a drill.

Evacuate! Evacuate!

We have to go. We have to go now.
