GOOD EVENING,
THIS IS A SPECIAL REPORT.

I'M BRIAN WILLIAMS,
NBC NEWS.

WE ARE COMING ON THE AIR
AT THIS POINT

TO REPORT TO YOU
A STORY STILL DEVELOPING,

THE FACTS STILL COMING IN,
APPARENTLY,

FROM U.S. COAST GUARD
AND OTHER SOURCES.

WE NOW KNOW THAT
A TWA JET AIRCRAFT,
FLIGHT 800,

EN ROUTE TONIGHT FROM
JFK AIRPORT IN NEW YORK

TO CHARLES DE GAULLE AIRPORT
IN PARIS, FRANCE,

HAS EXPLODED IN MID-AIR,

APPARENTLY LANDING
IN THE ATLANTIC,

ANYWHERE FROM 10 TO 20 MILES

SOUTH OF NEW YORK'S
LONG ISLAND.

[BRIAN WILLIAMS ON TV]
I'M TOLD TO STAND BY
FOR ROBERT HAGER

IN OUR WASHINGTON BUREAU.
BOB, CAN YOU HEAR ME?

ROBERT?

[ROBERT HAGER ON TV]
BUT I'M DOWN IN ATLANTA
AT THE OLYMPIC SITE.

[WILLIAMS]
OKAY, ROBERT, I DIDN'T
KNOW WHERE YOU WERE.

WE NOW SEE YOU
ON THE TELEPHONE.

-[HAGER] OH, YOU SEE ME?
-[WILLIAMS] YES, WE DO.

AND WE CAN HEAR YOU,
AND WE'RE BOTH ON THE AIR NOW.

WHAT CAN YOU ADD?
I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG
YOU'VE BEEN LISTENING.

[HAGER]
NO, I HAVEN'T,
SO I DON'T THINK

I KNOW AS MUCH
AS YOU DO AT THIS POINT.

[WILLIAMS]
WELL, THIS IS
TWA FLIGHT 800,

FLIGHT TONIGHT FROM
JFK TO PARIS DE GAULLE.

-THE CAPACITY ON THIS--
-[GUNSHOT]

THESE VINTAGE MITTS
ARE IMPRESSIVE.

-DID YOU PLAY?
-I DID NOT.

SCIENCE WAS MY SANDLOT.
AND YOU?

SECOND BASE AT FORDHAM,
THEN I WENT INTO POLITICS.

SOMETIMES I THINK WE USE
THE SAME EQUIPMENT

TO GET THINGS DONE
AT THE WHITE HOUSE.

LISTEN, I KNOW YOU
WERE RELUCTANT TO TAKE
ON THIS ROLE,

BUT THE PRESIDENT IS
APPRECIATIVE YOU ACCEPTED
HIS REQUEST.

I'M HERE TO HELP WITH ANY PART
OF THE TRANSITIONING

AND ANY GUIDANCE AS NEEDED.

I APPRECIATE THAT.

-[PHONE RINGS]
-HELLO?

[WOMAN]
I'M LOOKING FOR GARY WEBB,
PLEASE?

-THIS IS GARY.
-MY NAME IS CORAL BACA.

I HAVE SOME
IMPLICATING MATERIAL
ON THE CIA

THAT I THINK YOU
MIGHT FIND OF INTEREST.

[MAN ON RADIO]
WELL, THERE ARE SEVERAL
REASONS, YOU KNOW.

I BELIEVE THE DEATH PENALTY
IS A DETERRENT
FOR SEVERAL REASONS.

PEOPLE FEAR DEATH.
THEY DON'T FEAR LIFE.

LIFE IS VALUED
MORE THAN DEATH.

THAT IS JUST A TRUTH.

[SHOWER RUNNING]

[WOMAN ON PA]
DUE TO INCREASED TSA
SECURITY MEASURES--

-[PHONE RINGING]
-[WOMAN] ONLY TICKETED
PASSENGERS

ARE PERMITTED BEYOND
THE SECURITY CHECKPOINT.

THANK YOU FOR
YOUR COOPERATION.

[SPEAKING NATIVE LANGUAGE]

[WOMAN ON PA]
...TSA SECURITY MEASURES,

ONLY TICKETED PASSENGERS
ARE PERMITTED...

[PA CHATTER]

HERE IT IS.

LET'S GET ACQUAINTED.

[SPEAKS POLISH]

TRENLIN POLENSKI.

FUNNY,
YOU DON'T LOOK POLISH.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

TO THE POINT.
LET'S SEE.

PRODUCTS SMUGGLED
FROM RUSSIA INTO POLAND

AND POLAND INTO THE U.S.

WITHOUT MY PERMISSION
MEANS TAXES.

WHERE IS IT?

INSIDE MIDDLE POCKET.

[SPEAKS POLISH]

HOW MUCH OF THIS IN AN ATM?

4,000.

PIN NUMBER?

2583.

GLAD TO HEAR THAT.

THE SAME NUMBER
YOUR PARTNER SAID.

THE PRICE NOW, IT'S 8,000
IF YOU WANT TO TRAFFIC
THROUGH POLAND.

OTHERWISE GO BACK TO AFRICA.

SINCE YOU HAVE HALF...

YOU GET HALF.

YOU GET THIS BACK
WHEN I GET OTHER HALF.

CALL ME
WHEN YOU HAVE IT.

[WOMAN ON PA]
PASSENGERS FOR QATAR AIRWAYS

FLIGHT 980 TO WARSAW
ARE KINDLY REQUESTED

TO PROCEED TO THE GATE FOR
IMMEDIATE BOARDING...

[PA CHATTER]

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

MY GOD. TRENLIN.

DON'T HURT HIM.

IT WASN'T HIS FAULT.

SO WHAT DO YOU DO FOR
A LIVING THERE, SPORT?

I, UH-- I'M NOT REALLY
WORKING RIGHT NOW.

YOU KNOW YOUR WAY
OUT OF HERE?

YEAH.
I'M REALLY SORRY.

YOU SHOULD GET UP.

GET THE DIRTY SHEETS
OFF THE BED.

PUT THE SHEETS IN THE BAG.

TRENLIN.

TRENLIN, I'M SORRY.

I MADE A MISTAKE.

YEAH, I THINK I'M THE ONE
WHO MADE THE MISTAKE.

WHY DON'T YOU GATHER YOUR THINGS
AND GET OUT OF HERE?

[RADIO CHATTER]

IS EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT?

OUR LOCATION
IS COMPROMISED.

THESE STONES
ARE EXCEPTIONAL.

NATHAN, THESE ARE
THE BEST STONES IN NEW YORK.

I STILL DON'T
KNOW HOW YOU DO IT.

[RADIO CHATTER CONTINUES]

WITH THESE ASSETS
NO LONGER IN PLAY,

WE'VE OUTLINED
A SECONDARY MANEUVER.

IT WILL NO LONGER
BE REMOTELY DRIVEN.

WE'RE GOING TO NEED
TO ASSIST TO ENSURE
PROPER EXECUTION.

ENCLOSED IS THE INITIAL PLAN
OUTLINED BY OUR SCIENCE
DEPARTMENT.

ALSO ENCLOSED ARE
THE PLAYERS AND DEPARTMENTS
WE NEED TO RECRUIT.

THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE
ON THIS EXERCISE

IS THAT INSURANCE
WILL PLAY A KEY ROLE,

ENABLING PARTIES TO COLLECT
TO HELP WITH RECONSTITUTION

WHILE WE KEEP OUR RESOURCES
INTACT FOR OUR OWN AGENDA.

FERAUT DID NOT
BOARD IFO-21.

WHAT HAPPENED?

HE WITHDREW
FOR UNKNOWN REASONS.

WHAT ABOUT BROWN?
IS HE ON BOARD?

YES.

YEAH, WELL, THE PRINCIPAL
IS STILL COVERED.

SO WE'RE PROCEEDING?

YEAH.

A UNITED STATES AIR FORCE JET,
FLIGHT IFO-21,

CRASHED THIS AFTERNOON
ON ITS WAY TO BOSNIA.

AMONG THE 34 DEAD, WHICH WERE
MAINLY FOREIGN DIPLOMATS,

WAS U.S. AMERICAN COMMERCE
SECRETARY RONALD BROWN.

SINCE THIS WAS
A MILITARY PLANE,

THERE WERE NO
FLIGHT RECORDERS
OR BLACK BOX.

THE INVESTIGATION CONTINUES,

BUT IT'S BELIEVED TO BE
WEATHER-RELATED AT THIS TIME.

CATHERINE MORGAN HAS
MORE ON THE INVESTIGATION.

SHE'S BEEN WORKING
THE SCENE ALL DAY.

HEY. HAVEN'T
SEEN YOU IN A WHILE.

STAN THOUGHT YOU LOST
THE TASTE FOR HIS FOOD.

-WOULD YOU LIKE THE USUAL?
-PLEASE.

ALL RIGHT,
I'LL BRING IT OUT.

EXCUSE ME.
STAN AROUND?

JUST A MINUTE.

I'M SHORT 2,000.

I CAN GET IT BY TUESDAY.

ALL RIGHT,
I'LL SEE YOU TUESDAY.

[PHONE RINGING]

-YEAH.
-STAN WAS SHORT TWO GRAND.

-SAID 11 NEXT TUESDAY.
-NO PROBLEM.

STOP BY THE BARN
ON THE WAY BACK.
WE GOT BUSINESS.

YOU DON'T NEED TO DO THIS.

NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
HOW'VE YOU BEEN?

I'M OKAY.
HOW ARE YOU?

OH, I'M ALL RIGHT.
SO HOW'S EVA?

-EVA'S GONE.
-WHAT? WHY?

SHE WAS MORE INTERESTED IN
THE APARTMENT AND THE MONEY.

-SO WHO WAS THE MONSTER?
-WHAT?

THE CRETIN YOU
GAVE THE BOX TO?

-OH, JUST A CUSTOMER.
-[PHONE RINGING]

[WOMAN]
FRATELLI'S PIZZA.

HOW LONG HAS HE BEEN
MUSCLING YOU?

[WOMAN]
SURE, ANYTHING ELSE?
OKAY, ABOUT 25 MINUTES.

-HOW LONG, STAN?
-THE PAST FEW MONTHS.

ME AND EVERYONE ELSE
ON THIS BLOCK.

YOU KNOW HIS NAME?

THAT WAS FRANCIS VALENTINE.

HE'S USUALLY HERE
WITH ANOTHER GUY
NAMED DOMINIC VOLLANI.

LEAVE IT ALONE.

YOU DON'T NEED
THIS AGGRAVATION, STAN.
WHY DON'T YOU JUST RETIRE?

I CAN'T.
WE BORROWED TO EXPAND
THIS PLACE.

MY PARTNER CAN'T AFFORD
TO BUY ME OUT.

DID YOU BORROW
FROM THOSE GOONS?

NO, A BANK.

MAY I ASK HOW MUCH
THE NOTE IS?

400,000.

I HAVE TO GET BACK TO WORK.
NICE SEEING YOU AGAIN.

DON'T BE A STRANGER, OKAY?

IT'S CONFIRMED.
NO SURVIVORS ON IFO.

AND FERAUT?

FERAUT HAS NOT LEFT HIS HOME
SINCE THE INCIDENT.

WELL, THAT'S NO SURPRISE.

SO WHAT'S YOUR PLAN?

IF WE TAKE ACTION,
IT CAN'T BE DIRECT.

THERE'S TOO MUCH SUSPICION THAT
HE DIDN'T BOARD WITH BROWN.

WE'LL FIGURE SOMETHING OUT.

MAY I MAKE A SUGGESTION?

OF COURSE.

NOBODY SUSPECTS LIGHTNING
TO STRIKE TWICE.

HE'LL BOOK COMMERCIALLY
FOR PEACE OF MIND.

YOU SEEM UNCOMFORTABLE.

THAT'S A HUGE SACRIFICE
FOR ONE MAN.

A MAN WITH STRONG
TERRORIST TIES.

SUSPECTED TERRORIST TIES.

WELL, THAT'S WHAT
THE AGENCY IS FOR,
TO FIND THE EVIDENCE.

[SPEAKING NATIVE LANGUAGE]

MIDDLE DRAWER.

JUST SO YOU KNOW,

EVA'S CALLED ME ABOUT
FIVE TIMES.

SHE'D LIKE A MINUTE
OF YOUR TIME.

WOW.

SHE'S MADE A MESSENGER
OUT OF YOU.

LOOK, PERSONALLY,
I DON'T CARE,

BUT I DO THINK YOU'RE MAKING
A BIGGER DEAL OUT OF THIS
THAN YOU NEED TO BE.

EVERYBODY CHEATS
AT SOME POINT, TRENLIN.

I'VE CHEATED,
MY GIRLFRIEND CHEATED.

TELL ME YOU'VE
NEVER CHEATED.

I NEVER CHEATED ON HER.

NOW YOU KNOW.

SO WHAT IS IT YOU WANT
TO TALK ABOUT?

HAVE YOU EVER HEARD
OF A DOMINIC VOLLANI
OR FRANCIS VALENTINE?

YEAH, COUPLE OF THUGS
THAT WORK FOR JOE COSSI.

I'M GUESSING THAT NAME'S
SUPPOSED TO MEAN SOMETHING.

YEAH, THAT YOU SHOULD STAY
AS FAR AWAY FROM HIM
AS POSSIBLE.

CAN YOU GIVE ME
A LITTLE MORE COLOR, VICTOR?

COSSI TOOK OVER RIGHT AFTER
GOTTI GOT PUT AWAY.

OKAY, SO HE'S JUST
ANOTHER MOB JERK.

MOB, YES. JERK, NO.

UNLIKE GOTTI,
WHO WAS BUSY POSING
FOR THE PAPARAZZI

AND PISSING OFF
LAW ENFORCEMENT,

COSSI WAS SILENTLY
PARTNERING WITH THEM

AND PAYING THEM THREE TIMES
WHAT THEY WERE MAKING BEFORE

WITH THE PROMISE TO STAY
WAY BELOW THE RADAR

TO MAKE THE WORLD THINK
THAT THE FEDS PUT AN END
TO ORGANIZED CRIME.

SO WHAT ARE YOU SAYING,
HE'S THE BIGGEST CRIME BOSS
THE WORLD HAS NEVER HEARD OF?

THAT'S A GREAT WAY
TO PUT IT.

MIGHT BE THE TITLE OF HIS BOOK
IF HE EVER GETS ARRESTED.

WHAT'S HIS DEAL?

CONSTRUCTION, PRIMARILY.

BIG-TIME CONSTRUCTION,
ALL COMMERCIAL.

HE GOT ALL
OF MANHATTAN LOCKED UP
AND 70% OF THE BOROUGHS.

THERE ARE ALSO RUMORS
ABOUT TRAFFICKING--

HEROIN AND HUMAN.

ARE YOU IN A POSITION
TO GET ME AN AUDIENCE?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT
YOU WANT, MAN,

BUT THERE ARE
MORE STABLE PEOPLE
TO WORK WITH THAN HIM.

YEAH, I'M SURE.

BUT IN THIS CASE,
IT NEEDS TO BE HIM.

THAT KIND OF INTRODUCTION
CAN HAVE REPERCUSSIONS.

YOU AFRAID OF HIM, VICTOR?

YES.

BUT HE WON'T HURT ME.

IT'S THE INDIVIDUAL
THAT HE HOLDS ACCOUNTABLE,
NOT THE ACQUAINTANCE.

THAT'S ALL YOU'RE
GONNA BE TO ME

IF I DO THIS FOR YOU.

I UNDERSTAND.

THANK YOU, VICTOR.

[PHONE RINGING]

I NEED YOU TO CALL STEPHEN.

TELL HIM WE NEED
FACILITATIVE OPTIONS

FOR AN AVIATION INTERRUPTION
WITH NO POST VISIBILITY.

WHICH BRANCH? WHEN?

IT'S NOT MILITARY.
I DON'T KNOW WHEN.

[PHONE RINGING]

-HELLO?
-[MAN] GARY, IT'S GARCIA.

THEY LOVED IT,
BUT IT'S TOO LONG.

THE HELL IT IS.

I MEAN, I SPENT A YEAR'S WORTH
OF RESEARCH ON THIS THING.

THE SCOPE IS BIG,
AND THE FOOTNOTES SUPPORT
ALL THE DATA.

[GARCIA]
WE HAVE TO TRIM IT.

I HAVE SOME IDEAS.
I'LL SEND THEM TO YOU.

TALK TO YOU LATER.

HELLO, SIR.
MAY I HELP YOU?

YES, I'M LOOKING
FOR NATHAN.

OF COURSE.
AND YOU ARE?

AN OLD FRIEND.

JUST A MOMENT.

[KNOCKS ON DOOR]

[SPEAKS NATIVE LANGUAGE]

-AFTER YOU, SIR.
-THANK YOU.

-NATHAN?
-HELLO, WALTER.

PLEASE, SIT DOWN.

FINALLY LOOKING
TO UPGRADE YOUR ATTIRE?

NO, NOT YET.

I'M, UH, NOT MUCH
OF A MATERIAL MAN.

SO WHAT IS IT
THAT YOU NEED?

A DELIVERY.

I HEARD UPS
IS VERY RELIABLE.

IT'S A, UH--
IT'S A UNIQUE PARCEL.

REQUIRES SPECIAL HANDLING.

AND, NATURALLY,
NONE OF THE AGENCY'S MEN
ARE QUALIFIED.

IT'S TOO SENSITIVE.
WE NEED A NEUTRAL.

"NEUTRAL" OFTEN MEANS
"EXPENDABLE."

I'M AFRAID I DON'T HAVE
ANY DISPOSABLE ASSETS.

NO, NOT DISPOSABLE,
NATHAN, JUST RELIABLE,

AND SOMEBODY WHO'S AVAILABLE
ON A SHORT NOTICE.

ITEM AND DESTINATION?

THE ITEM'S ACTIVE.
THE DESTINATION...

I'M GUESSING JFK,

POSSIBLY NEWARK
OR LAGUARDIA.

DELIVERY TO AIRPORTS
ARE NEVER GOOD.

HANDLING?

MINOR MILLING
AND SOME RETROFITTING.

I CANNOT HAVE MY MAN
ON PERMANENT STANDBY.

THAT MEANS INTERRUPTION
FOR MY BUSINESS.

I THOUGHT THAT FIGURE WOULD
COVER ANY BUSINESS DISRUPTION.

I WILL LET YOU KNOW.

THANK YOU, NATHAN.

HAVE A SEAT.

SO HOW DO YOU KNOW VICTOR?

VICTOR BAILED ME OUT
OF A BAR FIGHT.

WE'VE BEEN SOCIAL
EVER SINCE.

WELL, YOU DON'T LOOK
LIKE A FIGHTER.

THAT WAS ME BEING
IN THE WRONG PLACE
AT THE WRONG TIME

COUPLED WITH
THE WRONG COMMENT
TO THE WRONG GUY.

WELL, THAT'S NORMALLY
THE WAY IT IS.

-SO HOW CAN I HELP YOU?
-I NEED $17,000.

YOU DON'T LOOK LIKE A GUY
WHO NEEDS $17,000.

THAT COULD BE DEBATABLE
ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.

WHAT'S IT FOR?

SOMETHING I'M BUYING.

HMM. SOMETHING.

-DRUGS?
-IT'S NOT DRUGS.

YOU BUY DRUGS
FROM VICTOR, RIGHT?

I BUY PHARMACEUTICAL-GRADE
VACCINES FROM VICTOR

BECAUSE I TRAVEL
EXTENSIVELY.

SO IF I ASKED YOU
FOR A URINE SAMPLE

TO SEE IF YOU'RE CLEAN,
YOU GONNA DO IT?

GIVE ME THE CUP.

THE VIG IS $2,000 A WEEK.

THAT'S OKAY.
I ONLY NEED A WEEK.

A WEEK?
NOBODY BORROWS FOR A WEEK.

MY FUNDS ARRIVE IN A WEEK.

SO WHY BORROW
IN THE FIRST PLACE?

I'M BUYING A HOUSE

AND I WOULD LIKE TO LOCK IN
BEFORE THE RATE GOES UP.

WELL, THIS IS A FIRST.

-WHERE'S THE HOUSE?
-ORANGE COUNTY.

-CALIFORNIA?
-NEW YORK.

YOU GONNA INVITE ME TO
THE HOUSEWARMING PARTY
WHEN YOU GET SETTLED IN?

YOU'RE WELCOME ANY TIME.

HERE'S 20.
NO CHARGE ON THE EXTRA THREE.

BUY YOURSELF A REFRIGERATOR
OR SOMETHING.

YOU PAY ME BACK HERE
IN ONE WEEK.

[BEEPS]

GOT YOUR MESSAGE, STEPHEN.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE FOR ME?

WELL, ASSUMING NO TIME

TO COMPROMISE MECHANICAL
AND ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS

MEANS WE'RE LIMITED
TO AGGRESSIVE MEASURES.

AND SINCE EXPLOSIVES
LEAVE VISIBLE SIGNS LIKE
RESIDUE AND BLAST FLEXING,

WE'VE COME UP WITH THIS.

IRON OXIDE AND ALUMINUM.

-THERMATE.
-CORRECT.

NOW WE'VE MILLED OUT THE SHAFT
OF THIS SOCKET WRENCH

TO CONTAIN AND CONCEAL
A CORE OF THERMATE.

INSIDE THE HANDLE
IS AN ALTIMETER.

A PRE-SET ALTITUDE
WILL ACTIVATE THE BATTERY

TO IGNITE THE MAGNESIUM RIBBON
AND THUS THE THERMATE.

THE TOOL WILL
BE MADE OF LEAD,

SO NO INTERNAL COMPONENTS
WILL BE SEEN IF X-RAYED.

A FACILITATOR WILL
NEED TO DRILL

A SMALL HOLE IN
THE PLANE'S FUEL CELL.

IT'S ONLY A QUARTER
OF AN INCH THICK.

LOWER THE SHAFT INTO THE TANK
AND IT'S READY.

WILL THIS HOLD ENOUGH THERMATE
TO IGNITE A FUEL TANK?

MORE THAN ENOUGH.

IT BURNS AT 4,500 DEGREES
AND IS SELF-OXIDIZING.

THE TANK WILL EXPLODE
FROM THE INSIDE.

A SMALL, DRILLED HOLE
WILL BE UNDETECTABLE FROM
THE TANK EXPLODING APART,

AND THE SOCKET WRENCH
WILL BE BLOWN AWAY,

AND, REALISTICALLY,
NEVER FOUND.

AND WHAT IF
THE BATTERIES FAIL?

WE'VE GOT TWO.
ONE'S FOR BACKUP.

WHAT IS THE LIKELIHOOD
OF SUCCESS?

93%.

NICE WORK.

-IT'S, UH, LOT 380.
-MM-HMM.

-THEN YOU GOT 607.
-MMM.

-THAT'S TOOL INTERNATIONAL.
-INTERNATIONAL?

WHAT'S UP?

JOE'S PAYMENT.

YOU CAN SETTLE UP WITH US.

OKAY.
IT'S ALL HERE.

SO HOW'S THE HOUSE?

-IT'S GOOD.
-GLAD TO HEAR THAT.

IS IT ATTACHED OR DETACHED?

-WHAT?
-THE GARAGE.

IS IT ATTACHED
OR DETACHED?

ATTACHED.

-HOW MANY SQUARE FEET?
-2,200.

-ACRES?
-1.9.

NOT BAD.

I'D LIKE TO SEE IT.
HOW ABOUT THIS WEEKEND?

I'M ACTUALLY OUT OF TOWN
THIS WEEKEND.

[FRANCIS]
OH, YOU'RE OUT OF TOWN.

WELL, I GUESS
THAT'S IT, THEN.

ACTUALLY,
I NEED TO SEE YOUR BOSS.

-FOR WHAT?
-I'LL TAKE THAT UP WITH HIM.

LISTEN, I GOT
A KNACK FOR READING PEOPLE,
AND PERSONALLY,

I THINK YOUR HOUSE STORY'S
JUST THAT, IT'S A STORY.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS
YOU'RE UP TO,

BUT WHEN
YOUR BULLSHIT STARTS,
I'M GONNA END IT.

WAIT HERE.

HEY, JUST SO YOU KNOW,

I HEAR EVERYTHING.

BUT AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED,
YOU MADE A PAYMENT.

BUT IF HE'S RIGHT,
AND USUALLY HE IS,

YOU MIGHT WANT TO RETHINK
ABOUT ANYTHING

YOU MIGHT BE INTO HERE,
YOU UNDERSTAND?

GOOD.

-IS THERE A PROBLEM?
-NO PROBLEM.

I'D JUST LIKE ANOTHER LOAN.

FRANCIS SAYS HE'S NOT
COMFORTABLE WITH YOU.

WE'RE GONNA PASS.

I DEAL IN GEMSTONES.

I'D LIKE TO OPEN
UP MY OWN STORE,

CUT OUT THE MIDDLEMAN,
AND INCREASE MY PROFITS.

THESE ARE WORTH 130 GRAND.

I NEED TO BORROW 180.

KEEP THOSE
AS PARTIAL COLLATERAL
UNTIL I SETTLE UP.

BUT WHEN I DO,
I GET THOSE BACK.

THESE ARE REAL.

-[COSSI] FOR HOW LONG?
-ONE MONTH.

YOU EXPECT TO BE
UP AND RUNNING

AND TURNING A PROFIT
IN JUST ONE MONTH?

[TRENLIN]
MY FUNDS ARE OVERSEAS.

IT'LL TAKE ME A MONTH
TO SMUGGLE IT IN.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT RUNNING A STORE?

I DON'T.
I CAN HIRE SOMEONE FOR THAT.

I JUST ACQUIRE THE PRODUCT.

PURCHASE IT FOR A,
SELL IT FOR Z.

IF I DO THIS, THEN I WANT
15% OF YOUR BUSINESS.

IF I HAVE TO GIVE YOU 15%
OF MY BUSINESS,

THEN I GET
THE LOAN INTEREST FREE.

NO VIG FOR A MONTH.

AFTER THAT, IT'S ON,

AND RETROACTIVE
IF YOU'RE LATE.

DOMINIC WILL
BRING YOU THE MONEY.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

WE'VE GOT CONFIRMATION
THAT FERAUT

HAS BEEN TRANSFERRING MILLIONS
INTO PRIVATE BANK ACCOUNTS,

AND HE'S ALSO BEEN
BUYING LARGE QUANTITIES
OF LIFE INSURANCE.

PRIVATE BANK ACCOUNTS.
THEY ALL HIS?

MOST ARE WITHIN THE FAMILY.
SOME ARE SUSPECT.

COULD BE LINKED TO
TERRORIST CELLS,

BUT THAT'S
NOT CONFIRMED YET.

ALL RIGHT.

WE NEED CONFIRMATION
ON THOSE ACCOUNTS.

HEY.

I'M SORRY, I KNOW
YOU WERE EXPECTING VICTOR.

I ASKED HIM TO CALL YOU
TO MEET HIM HERE.

IT WAS THE ONLY WAY
I COULD THINK TO SEE YOU.

I'VE BEEN--

I WANTED TO APOLOGIZE SO BAD,

AND THE ONLY THING
THAT STOPPED ME

IS THAT I KNOW YOU'D TAKE IT

AS AN INSULT
TO YOUR INTELLIGENCE

VERSUS THE SINCERITY
WITH WHICH IT WOULD BE MEANT.

YOU DIDN'T DESERVE
WHAT I DID TO YOU,

AND I DON'T DESERVE
YOUR FORGIVENESS.

I DON'T DESERVE
TO KEEP THIS, EITHER.

I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL
ABOUT THESE THINGS,

BUT YOU GAVE ME ONE ANYWAY
DESPITE YOUR FEELINGS

BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO
SATISFY MY SELFISH NEED
FOR MATERIAL THINGS.

I JUST--

I JUST HOPE THAT SOME DAY
YOU'LL FIND IT IN YOUR HEART
NOT TO TAKE ME BACK,

BUT TO BELIEVE
EVERYTHING I JUST SAID.

TAKE CARE, TRENLIN.

IT'S CONFIRMED.

FERAUT BOOKED JULY 17TH
OUT OF JFK.

THERE ARE THE DETAILS.

SO WHO'S FACILITATING?

WE'RE USING A NEUTRAL.

WE CAN'T AFFORD
TO BE LINKED TO SOMETHING
OF THIS MAGNITUDE.

WELL, ONE COULD ARGUE
WE SHOULDN'T BE DOING THIS
AT ALL, PERIOD.

YOU GOT SOMETHING TO SAY,
OLIVER, JUST SAY IT.

WE HAVE NO CONFIRMATION
THAT FERAUT IS LINKED TO
ANY TERRORIST GROUP.

HE'S ONLY SUSPECTED
OF BEING LINKED
TO BROWN'S AFFAIRS.

DO YOU WANT TO LOBBY THAT
TO THE HOUSE OFFICIAL?

ALL RIGHT.

CALL NATHAN,
TELL HIM WE'RE ON,

AND THAT I'LL MEET HIM LATER
WITH THE MATERIALS.

WALTER, I CAN'T DO THIS.
I WON'T DO THIS.

I'M RETIRING TODAY,
EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.

ALL RIGHT.

I'LL HAVE KAREN
DRAW UP YOUR PAPERWORK.

TRANSFER IN PHASE
ON C.T. BYPASS

IS LOADED AND READY
FOR DELIVERY.

WHAT ABOUT FERAUT?

FERAUT HAS BOOKED A FLIGHT
FOR JULY 17TH.

EVERYTHING IN ORDER?

YES. OLIVER RESIGNED,

BUT EVERYTHING ELSE
IS ON POINT.

WHY DID OLIVER RESIGN?

HE IS CONFLICTED
WITH THE SUBJECT MATTER,

BUT HE WILL NOT
IMPEDE THE PLAN.

SPEAKING OF THE PLAN,

WE'RE NOT CERTAIN ABOUT
ITS SOUNDNESS.

WHY?

93% IS NOT 100%.

WE'VE ONLY GOT
ONE SHOT AT THIS.

AFTER THAT HE'S GONE.

I TOOK THE LIBERTY
OF ASKING STEPHEN
FOR A BACKUP.

HE'LL FILL YOU IN
ON THE DETAILS.

OH, AND I'M NOT SURE
WHAT YOUR INTENTIONS ARE

REGARDING
OLIVER'S RESIGNATION,

BUT I'D BE REMISS
IF I DIDN'T REMIND YOU

THAT PROCESSING PAPERWORK

IS NOT PROTOCOL
IN A SITUATION LIKE HIS.

WE'VE BEEN BACK AND FORTH OVER
THESE REVISIONS FOR MONTHS.

WHEN DOES IT END?

[MAN]
I'M JUST TELLING YOU
WHAT THEY SAID.

THEY WANT THE LEAD HARDENED.

I'VE GOT TONS OF DIRT ON
THE CIA TRAFFICKING DRUGS,

AND THEY'RE WORRIED
ABOUT THE DAMNED LEAD?
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

[MAN] RELAX, GARY,
YOU'RE ALMOST DONE.

HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT
THE TITLE, BY THE WAY?

YEAH.
"DARK ALLIANCE."

HEY, STEPHEN.

I UNDERSTAND
THEY ASKED YOU FOR A BACKUP.

YEAH, AND YOU'RE NOT
GONNA LIKE IT.

IT'S A MODIFIED S.A.M.

WITH THE EXPLOSIVE
WARHEAD REMOVED

AND A REDUCED THRUSTER.

IN ESSENCE,
IT'S A JAVELIN.

NOW THE FLIGHT IS
SCHEDULED TO DEPART

AT 7:00 PM
WHEN IT'S STILL LIGHT OUT.

THE REDUCED THRUSTER
WILL MAKE THE HEAT TRAIL

VIRTUALLY INVISIBLE
DURING THAT TIME.

THE REDUCED SPEED
WILL CAUSE MORE BLUNT FORCE
TRAUMA TO THE BODY,

MAKING IT BREAK UP.

STEPHEN, WE NEED REASSEMBLY
AND SOURCE DETECTION ON THIS

TO BE VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE.

WHAT ELEVATION
DOES THAT PLANE NEED TO BE
TO ACHIEVE THAT?

10,000 FEET.
THAT'S OPTIMAL.

I'LL SET THE ALTIMETER ON
THE WRENCH FOR 10,000 FEET.

IF THAT DOESN'T WORK,
THEN WE TEST THE SAM.

NATHAN WANTS YOU TO GO
DIRECTLY TO THIS HOTEL

WHEN YOU'RE DONE
WITH THIS.

DON'T GO TO
YOUR REGULAR APARTMENTS.

THIS IS ONE JOB
YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TAKEN ON.

[BRIAN WILLIAMS ON TV]
...STORY STILL DEVELOPING,

THE FACTS STILL COMING IN,
APPARENTLY,

FROM U.S. COAST GUARD
AND OTHER SOURCES.

WE NOW KNOW THAT
A TWA JET AIRCRAFT,
FLIGHT 800,

EN ROUTE TONIGHT FROM
JFK AIRPORT IN NEW YORK

TO CHARLES DE GAULLE AIRPORT
IN PARIS, FRANCE,

HAS EXPLODED IN MID-AIR.

[PHONE RINGING]

HELLO?

HELLO?

IS THERE ANYTHING
I NEED TO BE CONCERNED WITH?

-NATHAN?
-YES.

NO, NATHAN,
THERE'S NOTHING FOR YOU
TO BE CONCERNED WITH.

-WHAT ABOUT--
-NO.

NATHAN,
I GAVE YOU MY WORD, OKAY?

NATHAN?
GET SOME SLEEP.

[DOORBELL BUZZES]

[DOORBELL BUZZES]

HELLO, TRENLIN.
MAY WE COME IN?

OF COURSE.

ARE THESE
ACCOMMODATIONS OKAY?

THEY'RE EXCEPTIONAL.

IS THERE ANYTHING YOU NEED?

NO, BUT THANK YOU.

YOU KNOW,
YOU HAVEN'T PAID ME A VISIT
SINCE I'VE KNOWN YOU.

WHAT'S WRONG?

THE ALIASES YOU HAVE
USED ON YOUR APARTMENTS,
ARE THEY ALL DIFFERENT?

YES.

AND THE ONES
ON YOUR TRAVEL?

THEY'RE ALL DIFFERENT.

WHAT IS THE OLDEST ONE
YOU HAVE USED?

THREE YEARS AGO IN KINSHASA.

USE THAT ONE TILL
I GET YOU A REPLACEMENT.

I WOULD LIKE THAT YOU STAY
HERE FOR A WHILE.

I WILL MAKE THE PAYMENTS
ON YOUR APARTMENTS.

WHAT'S WRONG, NATHAN?

PROBABLY NOTHING.

SO WHY GO THROUGH
ALL THE TROUBLE?

SOME THINGS ARE
NOT SO EASY TO REPLACE.

IF YOU HAVE NO PLANS,

FRIDAY I HAVE A PACKAGE
FOR YOU TO RETRIEVE IN INDIA.

NO PLANS.

DO YOU NEED MONEY?

NO, I'M OKAY.

NATHAN ASKED ME TO STAY
WITH YOU FOR A WHILE.

HEY, JACK,
YOU WANT TO SEE ME?

I GUESS I DON'T HAVE TO ASK
IF YOU'VE SEEN THE NEWS.

HOW COME SO MANY PEOPLE
SAW THIS ROCKET?

FLIGHT WAS SUPPOSED
TO LEAVE AT 7:00 PM,

GOT DELAYED AN HOUR
FOR MAINTENANCE WORK

AND A PASSENGER
BAGGAGE MISMATCH.

BY 8:10 PM,
IT WAS DARK ENOUGH

TO THE SEE
THE PROPULSION TRAIL
LEFT BY THE SAM.

THIS SITUATION'S GATHERING
A LOT OF ATTENTION.

IT'S NOT GONNA GO AWAY
ANY TIME SOON.

WE CAN'T AFFORD
ANY GUILTY CONSCIENCES
SURFACING.

I SUGGEST YOU CONTEMPLATE
THE STABILITY OF THE PLAYERS.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

[SPEAKING NATIVE LANGUAGE]

180,000 IN FULL.

IS JOE AVAILABLE?

BRING JOE IN HERE.

-WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR LEG?
-IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.

YOU ASKED TO SEE ME?

I JUST GOT BACK FROM INDIA.

IT'S AN EMERGING COUNTRY THAT'S
GOT SOME BEACHFRONT PROPERTY

THAT'S GONNA BE WORTH
TEN TIMES WHAT IT IS TODAY
15 YEARS FROM NOW.

I'D LIKE A PIECE OF IT
BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.

THE PARCEL THAT I WANT
IS $3 MILLION.

I HAVE 1.8.
I'D LIKE TO BORROW 1.2.

YOU MUST THINK
I'M SOME KIND OF FOOL.

YOU HONESTLY BELIEVE
THAT I'M NOT AWARE

THAT YOU'VE BEEN
TRYING TO BUILD MY TRUST

JUST SO THAT YOU CAN
GET ME OVER A BARREL
ON A BIG LOAN?

MY BANK ACCOUNTS AND THE NAMES
OF THE CONTRACTORS OVERSEAS
DEVELOPING THE PROPERTY.

SO, HOW DO YOU KNOW ALL THIS?

LIKE YOU, I KNOW PEOPLE.

I'M SURE YOU HAVE SOMEONE
THAT CAN CHECK THAT ALL OUT.

SO LET'S SAY IT CHECKS OUT.
WHAT DO WE NEED YOU FOR?

JUST TAKE IT FOR OURSELVES
AND LEAVE YOU OUT
OF THE EQUATION.

YOU WON'T GET IN
WITHOUT ME.

DESPITE YOUR LOW PROFILE,

YOU STILL HAVE A REPUTATION...

ONE THOSE FOLKS OVERSEAS
ARE NOT GONNA WANT TO
BE ASSOCIATED WITH.

WE'LL GET BACK TO YOU.

HAVE A NICE DAY.

GET THIS OVER TO ROMEK.

JOE.

GLAD YOU COULD MAKE IT.
COME ON DOWN.

THIS USED TO BE
AN OLD WASH BAY

FOR DAIRY COWS.

THEY'D WASH OFF
ALL THE MUD AND MANURE
BEFORE MILKING.

HASN'T BEEN MANY COWS
THROUGH HERE LATELY,

BUT THE DRAIN
WORKS JUST FINE.

WALK WITH ME.

SO YOUR STUFF CHECKS OUT.

YOU DIDN'T LIE TO ME YET.

A LOT OF PEOPLE LIE TO ME.

I USED TO LIE A LOT
WHEN I WAS A KID.

MY MOTHER WOULD SLAP
THE HECK OUT OF ME FOR IT.

SHE SAID,
"IF YOU STOP LYING,

I'LL STOP SLAPPING."

SO I DID,
AND SHE STOPPED SLAPPING.

SHE SAID, "NO ONE
CAN EVER FAULT YOU

IF YOU ALWAYS
TELL THE TRUTH."

SMART WOMAN.

HOW'S YOUR FATHER?

I DIDN'T KNOW HIM.

SHE SAID HE MOVED AWAY
FOR WORK AND NEVER RETURNED.

SO WHERE'S YOUR MOM NOW?

SHE PASSED AWAY A WHILE AGO.

LOOK, I BROUGHT YOU HERE
FOR A REASON.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT, RIGHT?

[TRENLIN]
YES.

GOOD. THE MONEY'S IN
THE TRUNK OF YOUR CAR.

STAY OUT OF THE DRAIN.

THE PRESIDENT'S REALLY
CONCERNED ABOUT

THE "MERCURY NEWS" RELEASE
OF "DARK ALLIANCE."

EVERYBODY'S IN A UPROAR
ABOUT THESE ALLEGATIONS--

WHICH ARE COMPLETELY UNTRUE.

I'D LIKE YOU TO FOCUS
ALL YOUR ATTENTION

ON DISCREDITING
THAT STORY.

AND HE'D LIKE IT WRAPPED UP
IN THREE MONTHS.

THREE MONTHS?

WE CAN'T FACILITATE
A PROPER INVESTIGATION
IN THREE MONTHS.

WE'D JUST BE SCRATCHING
THE SURFACE.

THAT'S THE TIME FRAME
HE GAVE US.

UNDERSTOOD.

OH, AND I HEARD THAT THE FBI

IS ASKING
THE AGENCY FOR HELP

INVESTIGATING FLIGHT 800?

IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING
THERE WAS NO TERRORIST
ACTIVITY INVOLVED,

SO LET'S NOT WASTE
AGENCY RESOURCES

ON SOMETHING
THAT'S GONNA PROVE

TO BE SOME RANDOM MECHANICAL
OR ELECTRONIC FAILURE.

I'LL JUST LET EVERYBODY KNOW

THAT YOUR TEAM IS COMMITTED
TO OTHER PROJECTS.

JUST FOCUS IN ON
THE WEBB ALLEGATIONS, OKAY?

-ALL RIGHT.
-THANKS.

MADELINE,
SEND THE INSPECTOR GENERAL
TO MY OFFICE, PLEASE.

THANK YOU.

GRACIAS.

THE CIA HAS BEEN
SQUIRMING LIKE WORMS

SINCE MR. WEBB'S MATERIAL
WENT PUBLIC.

THEY CERTAINLY
WON'T WANT ANY OF THIS

COMING TO THE SURFACE.

MAIL IT.

THIS IS THE WESTSIDE
PROJECT, OKAY?

THAT'S A COOL
FOUR MILLION, OUR END.

THE STATE, THEY WANT US TO
DISCUSS THE TAPPAN ZEE.

[DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]

CAN'T FIND THIS GUY ANYWHERE.
HE JUST DISAPPEARED.

ALL RIGHT,
THIS GUY'S A CLOWN.

I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT, JOE.

I'LL TAKE A COPY
OF HIS PASSPORT,

I'LL BRING IT TO ANDY,

AND HE'LL COME UP
WITH SOMETHING.

YOU BETTER HOPE HE DOES,

AND THAT INDIA PROJECT
HE TOLD ME ABOUT

BETTER BE LEGIT.

THE INDIA PROJECT'S LEGIT,
I CHECKED IT OUT.

LIKE I SAID,
I'LL GET ANDY ON IT, OKAY?

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

YOU NEED TO SEE THIS.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU HAD THIS?

THE ORIGINAL NOTE
ARRIVED THIS MORNING

VIA CONVENTIONAL MAIL.

CANCELLATION
ADDITIONALLY CONFIRMS

IT CAME FROM NICARAGUA.

I RESPONDED TO
THE EMAIL PROVIDED,

THEY SENT THIS IN RETURN.

YOU WERE INVOLVED
WITH NICARAGUA, CORRECT?

YES, SIR.

SO BY BRINGING ME THIS,
YOU HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE.

THANK YOU.

DO THESE ACCOUNTS TIE BACK?

YES, ONE AGENT'S DECEASED,
THE OTHER ONE'S RETIRED.

DO YOU KNOW THEM?

THEY WERE THERE
WHEN I WAS THERE,

MAINLY TRANSIENT.

ALL RIGHT, I'LL LET ANN
RELEASE THE FUNDS.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE DATA
AND SEE WHO'S WHO.

WELL, DUE TO SENSITIVITY,

I WOULD SUGGEST WE SEND
AN AGENT TO COLLECT.

REDUCES THE POSSIBILITY
OF ANY THIRD-PARTY EYES

ON ANY FURTHER
ELECTRONIC DATA.

AGREED.

WHAT DO YOU GOT, ANDY?

THIS GUY HAS
MULTIPLE ALIASES.

WE STILL DON'T KNOW
WHO HE REALLY IS,

BUT HIS ALIASES
ARE ON SEVERAL LEASES

AND FOR EXTENSIVE TRAVEL.

THIS GIRL HAS TRAVELED WITH
HIM ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS.

-REALLY?
-HER ADDRESS IS ON THE BACK.

ALL RIGHT, THANKS.

SAY HELLO TO THE BOYS
AT THE PRECINCT FOR ME, OKAY?

I'LL SEE YOU AROUND.

I'M AFRAID
WE HAVE A PROBLEM.

WE LOST DAVIS.

WHAT? HOW?

APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN
A MUGGING GONE BAD.

WALLET AND WATCH.

ALL RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.

HERE'S THE WALLET,
NO WATCH.

[SILENCED GUNSHOT]

WHAT ABOUT THE DATA?

DOES ANYBODY ELSE
KNOW ABOUT THIS CASE?

NO, SIR.

ALL RIGHT,
MEET ME IN CONFERENCE
TOMORROW MORNING.

[JACK]
WHO ELSE KNOWS
ABOUT THIS EMAIL

AND DAVIS' DEATH?

CHARLES, OF COURSE,
MYSELF, AND NOW YOU.

WELL, I'M FAIRLY CERTAIN
IT'S JUST SOMEONE

TRYING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE
OF OUR BAD PRESS.

WE NEED TO GET
AHOLD OF THE DATA
SO WE CAN GET AHEAD OF IT.

CONTACT WALTER BROADNAX.

HE'LL SUPPLY US
WITH A NEUTRAL.

NO SENSE IN RISKING
ANOTHER AGENT AT THIS POINT.

WHAT ABOUT
THIS TOWN HALL MEETING

I'VE BEEN ASKED
TO ATTEND IN L.A.?

GO, GO.
IT'S A SOUND POLITICAL MOVE.

WE'VE NEVER HAD ANYONE
OF YOUR LEVEL TALK DIRECTLY
WITH THE PUBLIC BEFORE.

YOU CAN ASSURE THEM
THAT WE'RE TAKING THESE
MATTERS VERY SERIOUSLY

AND THAT THE INSPECTOR GENERAL
IS LAUNCHING AN INVESTIGATION

INTO THESE UNFOUNDED
ACCUSATIONS OF MR. WEBB.

WELL, I HAVE TWO CONCERNS.

ONE, THESE PEOPLE ARE
NEVER GONNA BELIEVE

THAT WE CAN FACILITATE
A PROPER INVESTIGATION
OF OURSELVES,

AND TWO, BASED ON THAT,

I'M CONCERNED THERE MAY BE
SOME VALIDITY

TO ALL OF THIS AFTER ALL,

SO SHOULD WE BE REALLY
PUBLICALLY REFUTING EVERYTHING

BEFORE WE'VE PROPERLY
INVESTIGATED?

JOHN, JOHN.

THE CIA DOES NOT
AND HAS NEVER CONDONED
THE DRUG TRADE,

NO MATTER WHAT EVIDENCE
SURFACES TO THE CONTRARY.

I'LL TELL WALTER YOU'LL
BE CONTACTING HIM.

-GENTLEMEN.
-MR. DIRECTOR.

UH, CHARLES,
WALTER'S UP TO SPEED.

NOW, THE BOTTOM LINE

IS WE'VE LOST SIX MILLION
AND AN AGENT

WITH NOTHING TO SHOW FOR IT.

SO WE'RE GONNA SEND IN
A NEUTRAL TO RECONNECT.

WALTER HAS
A POTENTIAL CANDIDATE.

WE'RE ASSUMING THIS SOURCE
HAS MORE PHYSICAL DATA

AND IS WILLING
TO COMMUNICATE?

HOW DO WE KNOW HE DOESN'T
THINK WE'RE GOING BACK
TO ELIMINATE HIM?

WELL, HE MAY NOT HAVE
ANY MORE PHYSICAL DATA,

BUT HE'S GOT PLENTY
IN HIS HEAD.

WE'LL PAY HIM ANOTHER
THREE MILLION,

MEET HIM WHEREVER HE WANTS

SO LONG AS
HE FEELS COMFORTABLE.

AND WHAT IF
THE DATA RESURFACES?

WELL, IF IT'S SOMEONE
INSIDE, IT WON'T,

AND IF IT'S JUST SOME THUG
WHO TOOK IT,

WE'LL EXERCISE ACCORDINGLY.

WHY RISK MORE EXPOSURE
SOLICITING A THIRD PERSON?

NO OFFENSE TO YOUR MAN,
AND NO OFFENSE TO YOUR IDEAS,

IF I GO,
WE'RE THE ONLY ONES
WHO'LL KNOW,

AND I TRUST BOTH YOU GUYS.

WELL, APPRECIATE YOUR TRUST,

BUT I HAVE TO
ASSUME OUR SOURCE

IS GONNA HAVE
SURVEILLANCE ON HIM.

NO, HIS MAN'S NEUTRALITY
AND ANONYMITY

BETTER SUITS HIM
FOR THE JOB.

NOT TO MENTION, YOU'VE BEEN
DESK-BOUND FOR TOO LONG

TO BE ENGAGING IN
THIS KIND OF FIELD WORK.

POLITE WAY TO SAY
I'M TOO OLD.

MAY I ASK
WHO YOUR NEUTRAL IS

OR IS IT CONFIDENTIAL?

THE NEUTRAL WORKS
FOR NATHAN VOGEL.

VOGEL IS INDEED
A CLASSIFIED ASSET.

HE'S A FORMER STASI OFFICER
WHO WAS INSTRUMENTAL

IN OPERATIONAL AFFAIRS
IN GERMANY.

HE WAS GIVEN AMNESTY
AND A RANGE OF LATITUDE

IN RETURN FOR HIS SERVICES.

WOULD YOU LIKE ME
TO ACCOMPANY YOU

WHEN YOU SPEAK TO HIM?

IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS
ABOUT THE GLOBAL NATURE
OF THE SITUATION,

I'M IN A POSITION
TO CONVEY THE SPECIFICS.

NATHAN IS RELUCTANT
TO ENGAGE NEW FACES.

HE HAS BEEN
ONLY WITH TWO AGENTS
SINCE HE'S JOINED US,

AND HE'S BEEN WITH ME
FOR THE LAST 17 YEARS.

I THINK HE SHOULD.
YOU'LL MAKE THE INTRODUCTIONS?

I'LL CALL NATHAN
AND ARRANGE IT.

AND I'LL POSTPONE MY VACATION
TILL THIS HAS BEEN RESOLVED.

NO NEED TO POSTPONE
YOUR VACATION.

NATHAN'S MAN CAN BRING YOU
THE DATA THERE.

COULD I IMPOSE
A WORKING VACATION ON YOU?

-YES, YOU CAN.
-GOOD.

ALL RIGHT.

NATHAN WILL BE IN
THE THIRD PEW ON THE RIGHT.

NOW, I DON'T SEE
ANY REASON TO CAUSE A SCENE,

SO I'M GONNA STAY HERE.

-OKAY.
-WORD OF ADVICE.

WHATEVER HE ASKS YOU,
JUST BE HONEST.

NATHAN HAS A, UH,

GREAT ABILITY TO SENSE
ANYTHING SURREPTITIOUS,

AND IF HE DOES,
HE WILL RETRACT

LIKE A TURTLE GOING
BACK INTO HIS SHELL.

MR. VOGEL.
CHARLES ALEXANDER.

I APPRECIATE YOU TAKING TIME
OUT OF YOUR DAY.

WALTER BRIEFED YOU?

I NOTICE YOU
DIDN'T GENUFLECT.

NOT A RELIGIOUS MAN?

HONESTLY, NO.

I APOLOGIZE IF
I OFFENDED YOUR BELIEFS.

WHAT ABOUT FATE?

[CHARLES]
MY PRINCIPLES ARE BASED
ON DEMONSTRABILITY

AND ACTUALITY.

FAITH IS MERELY
A CRUTCH FOR THE INSECURE.

YOU SIMPLY DON'T BELIEVE.

NO.

INTERESTING.

SO, I AM AWARE THAT WALTER
HAS SOLICITED THE SERVICES

OF YOUR MAN IN THE PAST,
AND WITH POSITIVE RESULTS.

I AM WILLING TO EXTEND
ANOTHER OFFER OF EMPLOYMENT,

CONTRACT, NOT PERMANENT.

THE NATURE OF THE PROJECT?

ACQUISITION.

AND YOUR PEOPLE CANNOT HANDLE
THAT AFFAIR FOR WHAT REASON?

WE LOST A MAN
IN THE FIRST ROUND,

WHICH MEANS WE HAVE
TO ASSUME THAT THEY KNOW
WHO THE REST OF US ARE.

HOW LARGE OF AN ACQUISITION?

SMALL IN SIZE,
LARGE IN IMPORTANCE.

SPECIFICALLY?

ALLEGATIONS OF TRAFFICKING
BY MEMBERS OF THE COMPANY,

POSSIBLY MUCH MORE.

I WILL SHARE THE OFFER
WITH MY MAN,

BUT I CAN TELL YOU,
HE WILL SAY NO.

TELL WALTER I'LL CALL HIM.

I UNDERSTAND.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH
FOR YOUR TIME.

HOW'D IT GO?

HE SAID NO,
AND THAT HE'D CALL YOU LATER.

ALL RIGHT, I'M GONNA
GO TALK TO HIM.

NO, HE SEEMED UNCOMFORTABLE.

MAYBE IT WAS ME.
I APOLOGIZE.

LET'S SEE WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN HE CALLS YOU.

ALL RIGHT.
I'LL LET JOHN KNOW.

OKAY, SO WHERE ARE YOU
GOING FOR VACATION?

MIAMI.

I'LL SEND OVER
MY HOTEL INFORMATION

SO YOU CAN CONTACT ME
IF YOU HAVE TO.

THANK YOU.

[TAPPING]

HEY.

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU?

YOU KNOW YOU'RE NOT
SUPPOSED TO BE OUTSIDE.

COME BACK IN.

SO, UH, WHAT'S GOING ON?

I'M TIRED OF STAYING
IN THIS HOTEL.

YOU NEED A RELEASE,
I'LL CALL A GIRL.

NO.

-BUT I'M STARVING.
-I'LL ORDER SOMETHING.

-[PHONE RINGING]
-OH, IT'S YOUR PHONE.

IT SAYS EVA.

-TELL HER I'M NOT HERE.
-[PHONE RINGING]

HELLO?
YEAH, HE'S NOT IN.

I THINK YOU'D
BETTER TAKE THIS.

HELLO?

[SOBBING]

TRENLIN, I'M SORRY.

[SPEAKING NATIVE LANGUAGE]

I TOLD YOU
WHEN YOUR BULLSHIT STARTED,
I WAS GONNA END IT.

I GOT YOUR GIRL EVA HERE.

HOW GOOD FOR YOU.

MAYBE YOU'LL HAVE
BETTER LUCK WITH HER
THAN I DID.

-TROUBLE?
-YEP.

THIS IS GONNA BE
RINGING BACK ANY SECOND.

WOULD YOU GET NATHAN
ON THE PHONE FOR ME, PLEASE?

I'M ON IT.

[PHONE RINGING]

YOU KNOW WHO THIS IS?

YEAH, I KNOW WHO THIS IS.

GOOD. NOW, LOOK,

I UNDERSTAND
YOU'RE NOT CONCERNED ABOUT
YOUR GIRLFRIEND, EVA,

BUT I DO KNOW YOU'RE
CONCERNED ABOUT YOURSELF.

YEAH, I LEARNED A LOT
ABOUT YOU, THANKS TO HER,

NOW, IN FAIRNESS TO HER,
SHE HELD OUT A LOT LONGER
THAN THE OTHER GIRLS,

THAT IS UNTIL WE STARTED
SLICING HER FINGERTIPS OPEN
WITH A NINE BLADE,

WITH THE PROMISE OF DOING HER
LIPS AND HER EYES NEXT.

NOW YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT.

IF I DON'T GET IT,
I'M GONNA SHOOT HER
IN ONE OF YOUR APARTMENTS

AND LET YOU SORT IT OUT
WITH THE COPS,

'CAUSE THE COPS WOULD CONSIDER
A CHEATING GIRLFRIEND

AS A MOTIVE FOR MURDER,
DON'T YOU THINK?

NATHAN, I NEED A FAVOR.

COSSI HAS MY EX.

I'M GONNA NEED
THE HELP OF YOUR FRIENDS
TO GET HER BACK.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT
THEY'LL WANT IN EXCHANGE
FOR THAT KIND OF HELP?

YES.

TRENLIN,
IS SHE WORTH IT?

NO, BUT SHE'S
IN THIS SITUATION
BECAUSE OF ME.

STAY WHERE YOU ARE.

[PHONE RINGING]

HELLO?

WALTER? IT'S NATHAN.

ALL RIGHT, NATHAN, SIT TIGHT.
I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT.

[PHONE RINGING]

-HELLO?
-JOHN, IT'S WALTER.
WE'RE BACK ON.

BUT WE NEED TO
PROVIDE SOME ASSISTANCE
TO NATHAN'S MAN.

HE'S BEING JAMMED UP
BY JOSEPH COSSI.

TELL NATHAN
WE GOT IT COVERED.

I'LL LET CHARLES KNOW
WE'RE BACK ON.

MADELINE, SEND FRANK LOGAN
TO MY OFFICE, PLEASE.

CHARLES, WE'RE BACK ON.

NATHAN'S MAN
WILL BE HERE TONIGHT.

PLEASE BE READY
TO BRIEF HIM.

IT'S ME.

WE NEED YOU TO COME
DOWN SOUTH AFTER ALL,

AND IT MUST BE CLEVER
AND CONVINCING.

JOE COSSI.

-WE GOT COMPANY.
-WHO?

I DON'T KNOW,
BUT IT'S NOT GOOD.

MAY I HELP YOU?

YEAH.
GET RID OF THE LACKEY.

AND YOU ARE?

FRANK LOGAN,
CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE.

THOUGHT I'D SPARE YOU
SOME EMBARRASSMENT

BY HAVING THIS CONVERSATION
WITH JUST YOU.

WE KNOW THAT THIS INDIVIDUAL
OWES YOU A LOT OF MONEY,

AND WE DON'T CARE.

WE ALSO KNOW THAT
YOU HAVE HIS FRIEND
EVA KRILLOVA,

BUT NOW HE WORKS FOR US.

SO IF ANYTHING
HAPPENS TO HIM, HER,

OR ANYONE ELSE HE KNOWS
FROM THIS POINT FORWARD,

YOUR LIFE AS YOU KNOW IT
WILL CEASE TO EXIST.

YOU WITH ME SO FAR,
I ASSUME?

GOOD.

NOW, HOW DID YOU
FIND THAT GIRL?

I HAD A COPY
OF HIS PASSPORT.

USED IT TO CHECK
HIS TRAVEL HISTORY,

REVIEWED HIS HOTEL RECORDS

AND EVA WAS REGISTERED
WITH HIM ON THREE OCCASIONS.

NICE DETECTIVE WORK.

I HAVE A FEW ON MY PAYROLL.

WELL, WE'RE NOT
ON YOUR PAYROLL.

I'LL TAKE THE COPY
OF HIS PASSPORT,

AND ALL THE OTHER DOCUMENTS
YOU HAVE PERTAINING TO HIM.

CALL YOUR CRETINS.

TELL THEM TO BRING THE GIRL
TO THIS ADDRESS.

I TRUST I WON'T EVER
HAVE TO COME SEE YOU AGAIN.

GOOD.

-ARE WE OKAY?
-YEAH, YOU'RE GOOD.

HELLO.
I'M CHARLES ALEXANDER.

EVA ARRIVED
A LITTLE WHILE AGO
AND IS SAFE.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE HER?

YOU DON'T WANT TO SEE HER?

WHAT IS IT YOUR PEOPLE NEED,
CHARLES?

ACQUISITION.

THAT'S YOUR CONTACT.

HE'S NEAR KENZIO
FAVELA IN RIO.

THERE'S YOUR TICKETS
AND SOME CASH FOR
MISCELLANEOUS EXPENSES.

HE'LL BE HANDING YOU A TAPE.

JUST GET IT BACK TO US.
QUESTIONS?

[SPEAKING NATIVE LANGUAGE]

[SPEAKING NATIVE LANGUAGE]

SO, YOU'RE NUMBER TWO.

[SPEAKING NATIVE LANGUAGE]

NO.

SO, YOU'RE NOT CIA...

AND YOU'RE NOT FBI.
SO WHO ARE YOU?

I AM NOTHING
BUT THE MAILMAN.

AH. YEAH.

BUT YOU BECOME SOMETHING
IF YOU TAKE THIS.

THAT MEANS NOTHING TO ME.

BUT IT MEANS SOMETHING
TO OTHERS.

AND THEY'LL KILL YOU FOR IT,

AS THEY KILLED
THE AGENT BEFORE YOU.

YOU KNOW HOW
SENSITIVE THIS IS?

IT IMPLICATES PEOPLE--

AGENTS,
GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS,

WHITE HOUSE MEMBERS,

SOME WORKING,
SOME RETIRED.

THAT SOUNDS LIKE
THE SAME OLD MUSIC,

JUST DIFFERENT DANCERS.

AND NOW YOU'RE
ON THE DANCE FLOOR.

THEY'RE EXPECTING YOU
TO BRING THEM BACK A TAPE

WITH MY VERBAL TESTIMONY.

IT'S INSIDE.

WHAT THEY'RE NOT EXPECTING
IS HARD COPIES OF ANY DATA--

PHOTOS, NAMES,
AND BANK RECORDS.

IT'S NOT A LOT,

BUT IT'S ENOUGH FOR YOU
TO BARGAIN FOR YOUR LIFE.

YOU'RE GONNA NEED IT
ONCE YOU STEP OUT OF HERE.

WHAT MAKES YOU SO INTERESTED
IN MY WELL-BEING?

CONSIDER IT A GIFT FROM
ONE TRAFFICKER TO ANOTHER.

MY MEN WILL ESCORT YOU
TO THE AIRPORT.

[SPEAKING NATIVE LANGUAGE]

HEY, I'M BACK.

HOW WELL DO YOU TRUST
MY CONTACT?

IMPLICITLY. WHY?

THE AGENT WHO BRIEFED ME

IS ASSOCIATED
WITH THIS SOMEHOW.

THE CONTACT I MET
GAVE ME SOME PAPERWORK

THAT THE AGENCY
ISN'T AWARE OF.

I SAW HIS NAME
ON SOME OF THEM.

WHO WAS THE AGENT?

CHARLES ALEXANDER.

GO DARK UNTIL
YOU HEAR FROM ME.

CAN YOU MAKE IT BACK NORTH?

YES, I'LL TAKE
THE LONG WAY BACK.

HAVE IVAN MEET ME
AT P.T.S. TOMORROW

AT 3:00 PM WITH A CAR,

AND I THINK
I GOT EYES ON ME.

[LINE RINGING]

[RECORDING]
THIS IS WALTER BROADNAX.
PLEASE LEAVE YOUR MESSAGE.

-[BEEP]
-WALTER.

NATHAN.
PLEASE CALL ME BACK.

YOU WANTED TO SEE ME?

YEAH, I WAS JUST INFORMED

THAT WALTER SUFFERED
A SHARK ATTACK

WHILE ON VACATION.

HE WAS PRONOUNCED DEAD
THIS MORNING.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY.

YEAH, NEITHER DO I.

I'VE GOTTA ATTEND THIS
TOWN HALL MEETING IN L.A.

AND THEN I GOT
A COMMITMENT OVERSEAS,

SO I'LL INFORM NATHAN

AND HAVE HIM
BRING YOU THE DATA.

UNDERSTOOD,
AND SAFE TRAVELS.

THANKS.

[PHONE RINGING]

-HELLO?
-YEAH, NATHAN?

THIS IS JOHN HATCH, DIRECTOR
OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE.

I'M CALLING TO INFORM YOU
THAT WALTER DIED

FROM A SHARK ATTACK
WHILE ON VACATION.

I UNDERSTAND THIS SITUATION

MAY MAKE YOU FEEL
UNCOMFORTABLE,

BUT I WAS WONDERING IF
YOU'D BE COMFORTABLE

BRINGING THE DATA
TO CHARLES ALEXANDER.

-HONESTLY? NO.
-MAY I ASK WHY?

IT'S BETTER YOU SEE
FOR YOURSELF.

OKAY.

ARE YOU COMFORTABLE HOLDING
THE DATA UNTIL I RETURN?

I'LL BE OUT OF POCKET
FOR SEVERAL DAYS.

-YES.
-THANKS, AND I APOLOGIZE
FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE.

GOT YOU A JACKET.
ARE YOU CLEAN?

I THINK I GOT A SHADOW.

THE DIRECTOR
OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE

ATTENDED A TOWN HALL MEETING
AT LOCKE HIGH SCHOOL TODAY

TO ADDRESS THE CITIZENS
OF LOS ANGELES

REGARDING ACCUSATIONS THAT
THE CIA TRAFFICKED DRUGS

IN ORDER TO FUND
THE CONTRAS IN NICARAGUA.

THESE ALLEGATIONS WERE MADE

BY PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING
JOURNALIST GARY WEBB

IN AN ONLINE ARTICLE
ENTITLED "DARK ALLIANCE."

THE DIRECTOR FACED
BOTH HOSTILE COMMENTS

AND POINTED QUESTIONS
AT THE MEETING.

HERE ARE A FEW
OF THOSE MOMENTS.

THANK YOU SO MUCH,
MR. CIA OFFICIAL,
FOR BEING HERE,

BUT I WOULD JUST
LIKE TO ASK YOU

HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO TRUST
THE CIA OFFICIALS

TO INVESTIGATE THEMSELVES?

UH, GARY WEBB,
THE STAFF WRITER FOR
THE "SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS",

HE PUBLISHED
A SEARCH WARRANT
ON THE INTERNET.

IT WAS ISSUED TO SEARCH
THE HOME OF LASSITER--

A MR. LASSITER, WHO WAS
A FORMER POLICE OFFICER
FROM SAN DIEGO.

WHEN THIS-- THE SHERIFFS
WENT TO THE HOME,

AND WENT IN, PRESENTED
THE SEARCH WARRANT,

THIS MR. LASSITER SAID,
"HOLD IT, HOLD IT!

YOU'D BETTER CALL CIA
HEADQUARTERS IN WASHINGTON,

BECAUSE THEY GONNA CLEAR ME.

YOU'D BETTER TALK
TO SPECIAL AGENT ALEXANDER,

BECAUSE I'M WORKING
WITH HIM, OKAY?"

NOW, THERE ARE
AFFIDAVIT COURT DOCUMENTS

THAT SAY THAT SOME
OF THE SHERIFFS HAD SAID

THAT THE EVIDENCE
THEY TOOK FROM THAT HOME

WERE PUT IN THE EVIDENCE ROOM

AND THAT THE CIA WENT
TO THE EVIDENCE ROOM

AND CONFISCATED THAT EVIDENCE
AND MADE IT DISAPPEAR.

THE CIA TOOK THAT EVIDENCE.

WHERE IS THIS EVIDENCE AND
WHO IS THIS MR. ALEXANDER--

SPECIAL AGENT ALEXANDER
OF THE CIA,

WHO CLEARED
THAT MR. LASSITER

WHO WAS DEALING
WITH MR. BLANDON?

JACK, IT'S ME.
I JUST LEFT THE MEETING.

IT WENT AS POORLY
AS I THOUGHT IT WOULD.

WELL, I SAW IT ON TV.
I THOUGHT YOU DID FINE.

-YOU ON YOUR WAY BACK?
-YES.

WELL, SAFE TRAVELS.
I'LL SEE YOU WHEN YOU RETURN.

MADELINE, I'D LIKE
A COPY OF ALL INCOMING
AND OUTGOING EMAILS

TO CHARLES ALEXANDER
FOR THE LAST TWO WEEKS.

CONFIDENTIAL. THANKS.

THIS VAN'S BEEN ON US
SINCE WE LEFT THE STATION.

LET'S GET OFF THE ROAD
AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

-WHAT ARE WE DOING?
-FOLLOW HIM.

THIS MIGHT BE A DEAD END.

-PULL OVER.
-PULL OVER?

TRUST ME, PULL OVER.

THEY'RE NOT GONNA DO ANYTHING.
WE'RE TOO CLOSE TO THE ROAD.

YOU GET OUT INTO THE WOODS.
I'LL BUY US SOME TIME.

HERE, TAKE MY GUN.

GENTLEMEN.

WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR,
WE'VE ALREADY PUT IN THE MAIL.

GOTT IST GUT.

WORLD WOULD BE
A BETTER PLACE IF HE WAS.

GET HIM.
SEE IF HE HAS IT ON HIM.

TOSS IT.

STEP OFF.

DOWN.

WHERE'D YOU LEARN TO TRACK?

I'M AN AVID HUNTER
IN MY SPARE TIME.

YOU KNOW, YOU DON'T
HAVE TO DO THIS.

YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO FOLLOW ME.

ACTUALLY, I DID.

THE GUY I WORK FOR
ISN'T SO NICE.

I'M SORRY I GAVE YOU
THE IMPRESSION

I WAS ANY DIFFERENT.

THAT'S A HANDSOME JACKET.

THANK YOU.

I COULD HAVE ONE TAILORED
FOR YOU, IF YOU LIKE.

NO, I'M AFRAID I WOULDN'T
WEAR IT VERY WELL.

SO, CHARLES,
WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?

YOUR MAN IS LATE.

JUST TOUCHING BASE,
MAKING SURE HE'S ALL RIGHT.

HE TOOK A DIFFERENT ROUTE,
BUT EVERYTHING IS ALL RIGHT.

I'M SORRY ABOUT WALTER.

HE MENTIONED THAT
YOU'D WORKED TOGETHER
FOR YEARS.

DID YOU KNOW WALTER WELL?

I DID NOT.
WE JUST BECAME ACQUAINTED
ON THIS PROJECT.

A COMPARTMENTALIZED
ORGANIZATION.

I'M AFRAID SO.

SO IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE
I CAN DO FOR YOU, CHARLES?

HONESTLY, YES.

I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE DATA.

CONCERNED?

YOU HAVE AMAZING ABILITY
OF TELLING THE TRUTH

WITHOUT BEING FORTHRIGHT.

WELL, THE FIBER
IN THE FABRIC OF TRUTH

IS USUALLY TAILORED
TO SUIT THE INDIVIDUAL.

THIS IS A NATURAL ABILITY
OR AGENCY-TAUGHT?

THE AGENCY
TEACHES YOU TO KNIT.
I PREFER TO WEAVE.

IN ANY EVENT,
I NEED TO REVIEW THE DATA
BEFORE PEOPLE GET HURT.

LIKE YOURSELF.

I'M THE LEAST OF THE PROBLEM.

THAT DATA, IF SURFACED,

COULD COMPROMISE
OUR POLITICAL STRUCTURE.

POLITICAL STRUCTURE
OR POLITICAL FIGUREHEADS?

DOES IT REALLY MATTER?

I'M ONE OF
THE BAD GUYS, NATHAN.
THERE, I'VE SAID IT.

DOES IT REALLY MATTER
IF I SUPPRESS THE DATA

OR SOMEONE ELSE
IN THE GOVERNMENT?

SO CANDID,
YET SO DECEITFUL.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD BE
RUNNING THE AGENCY.

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I'M NOT?

OR AT LEAST
A LARGE PART OF IT?

MY DIRECTOR'S NOT IN CONTROL.

HE'S JUST A FIGUREHEAD,

JUST LIKE THE PRESIDENT
OF THE UNITED STATES.

EVERYONE VOTES
THE PRESIDENT INTO OFFICE

THINKING THAT THEY'LL FIX
ALL THE NATION'S PROBLEMS,

AND THEY DON'T,
BECAUSE THEY CAN'T.

THE POWER RESIDES WITHIN
THE CONGRESS AND THE SENATE.

THEY'RE THE PUPPET MASTERS.
I'M A PUPPET MASTER.

WALTER WAS A PUPPET MASTER.

MAYBE IT'S TIME TO CUT
THE PUPPETS' STRINGS.

QUITE A PATRIOTIC
STATEMENT...

[SPEAKING NATIVE LANGUAGE]

I LIKE YOU, NATHAN,
AND I WANT TO PROTECT YOU,

BUT YOU MUST LET ME
FILTER THE DATA.

SO NOW YOU
WANT TO PROTECT ME.

THE LONGER YOU TALK,
THE LONGER YOU WEAVE.

I WILL BE FINE, CHARLES.

AND WHAT ABOUT TRENLIN?

I KNOW WHY YOU'RE
SO PROTECTIVE OF HIM.

YOUR DEAL TO PROTECT HIM
FROM COSSI

WAS WITH WALTER, NOT ME.

DO YOU THINK THAT COSSI
WOULD LEAVE HIM ALONE

IF I TELL HIM
HE NO LONGER WORKS FOR US?

THEY'RE A RELENTLESS
ORGANIZATION.

TRENLIN WILL HAVE
TO HIDE FOREVER.

NOT MUCH OF A LIFE
FOR HIMSELF,

YOUR SON.

BY THE WAY,

WE KEEP A COPY

TO PROTECT OUR INTERESTS,
OF COURSE.

OF COURSE.

I JUST NEED A COPY TO CLEANSE
BEFORE I GIVE IT TO JOHN.

HAVE A NICE DAY.

TRENLIN IS OFF THE LIST
UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE,

BUT KEEP TABS ON HIM.

-YOU WANTED TO SEE ME?
-RIGHT.

THAT'S A COPY OF AN EMAIL
SENT TO AGENT ALEXANDER.

THERE ARE FOUR NAMES
LISTED ON IT

FROM THE NICARAGUAN CONTACT

WITH EVIDENCE OF THE AGENCY
ASSISTING IN TRAFFICKING.

AND THIS IS
A COPY OF AN EMAIL

THAT ALEXANDER SENT TO ME
WITH ONLY TWO NAMES LISTED.

HE LEFT OFF THE NAMES
OF THE TWO CONGRESSMEN.

I SEE.

NOW THIS IS THE TAPE
FROM THE NICARAGUAN CONTACT.

I ONLY LISTENED TO
PART OF IT AND I REALIZED
IT HAD BEEN EDITED.

NONETHELESS,
THERE IS DATA TO SUPPORT
THE TRAFFICKING ACCUSATIONS,

NOT TO MENTION THE PERSON
AT THE TOWN HALL MEETING

WHO QUESTIONED ME
ABOUT AN AGENT ALEXANDER

WHO ASSISTED WITH
A NARCOTICS COVER-UP.

WELL, I GUESS I'D BETTER
HAVE A CONVERSATION
WITH AGENT ALEXANDER.

CONVERSATION?
YOU MEAN AN INVESTIGATION.

THAT DOESN'T USUALLY
APPLY TO US.

JOHN, YOU'RE A BRILLIANT MAN.

HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT
OF GOING BACK

TO DOING WHAT YOU LOVE?

I BEG YOUR PARDON?

EDUCATION.
YOU'RE A GREAT MENTOR.

I'M GONNA TELL THE PRESIDENT
WHAT A GREAT JOB YOU'VE DONE,

BUT THAT I THINK
IT'S TIME FOR A CHANGE.

[GRUNTING]

[ENGINE STARTS]

[BRIAN WILLIAMS ON TV]
...INFORMATION WE ALREADY HAVE.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

[WILLIAMS]
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

IS JOINING US
IN IDENTIFYING THIS

AS A TWA AIRCRAFT.

I'M TOLD TO STAND BY
FOR ROBERT HAGER IN OUR
WASHINGTON BUREAU...

HEY, OLIVER.
JUST NEEDED YOUR SIGNATURE ON
YOUR RETIREMENT PAPERS.

ALL RIGHT, COME ON IN.
I'LL GET A PEN.

SURE.

[TV CHATTER CONTINUES]

IT'S A LITTLE LATE
TO DELIVER PAPERWORK,
ISN'T IT?

[SILENCED GUNSHOT]

[THUD]

[ROBERT HAGER ON TV]
I'M DOWN IN ATLANTA
AT THE OLYMPIC SITE.

[BRIAN WILLIAMS]
OKAY, ROBERT, I DIDN'T KNOW
WHERE YOU WERE.

OKAY, WE NOW SEE YOU
ON THE TELEPHONE.

[HAGER]
OH, YOU SEE ME?

[WILLIAMS] YES, WE DO,
AND WE CAN HEAR YOU,

AND WE'RE UP, BOTH OF US,
ON THE AIR NOW.

WHAT CAN YOU ADD?
I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG
YOU'VE BEEN LISTENING.

[HAGER]
NO, I HAVEN'T, SO I DON'T
THINK I KNOW AS MUCH

AS YOU DO AT THIS POINT.

[WILLIAMS]
WELL, THIS IS TWA FLIGHT 800,

A FLIGHT TONIGHT
FROM JFK TO PARIS DE GAULLE.

[MAN #1]
...OVER RIVERHEAD,
LONG ISLAND,

AT ABOUT AT ABOUT 8,500,
LOOKING FOR TRAFFIC.

LOOKED OVER RIGHT SHOULDER
AND SAW SOME LANDING LIGHTS,

WHICH IS TYPICAL OVER THERE.

ALL OF A SUDDEN,
LOOKING AT IT DIRECTLY,

SAW A BIG
GIANT BALL OF FLAMES,

THE BIGGEST ORANGE BALL
I EVER SAW,

AND THEN AN INSTANT LATER
YOU JUST SAW PIECES

JUST DROP OUT
OF THE BOTTOM OF IT--

ORANGE FLAMES--
DIRECTLY INTO THE WATER.

[MAN #2]
AN EXPLOSION IN THE AIR,
NOT ON THE WATER?

[MAN #1]
DEFINITELY IN THE AIR.
AS IT HIT THE WATER,

WE SAW THE AREA LIGHT UP
AND BIG SPLASHES ERUPTING...

[MALE NEWSCASTER]
...FIRE DEPARTMENT IS INVOLVED
IN THIS RESCUE OPERATION,

AND WE WILL GET BACK ON
THE AIR AS SOON AS WE CAN.

[FEMALE NEWSCASTER]
AND OF COURSE
ON THE WIRE COPY,

WE'RE NOW GIVING YOU
A QUICK UPDATE.

THE PLANE,
FLIGHT 800 FROM PARIS.

IT DID LEAVE
JOHN F. KENNEDY AIRPORT,

AND IT WENT DOWN
IN THE WATERS OFF...

[STATIC]

[FEMALE NEWSCASTER #2]

THAT'S A JUMBO JET
WITH MORE THAN
200 PEOPLE ABOARD--

IN WATER ABOUT 20 MILES OFF
LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK.

[FEMALE NEWSCASTER #2]
