♪♪♪

- So what happened last night? - Uh,

surveillance lost the subject

and his girlfriend in the first club.

One of those barns down on Richmond. - Why didn't they warn us?

- They thought they'd moved on to another joint. Who'd figure

- they'd go home after two dances? - Well, from the sounds of it,

- they had a powerful motivator. - What happened to you guys

- last night? - We ended up in the closet.

- Oh yeah? So, hey, did you guys, uh,

you know, did you see anything?

- Settle down. [Chuckling]

I want the story on why we're bugging this guy.

- Well, looks like we're about to get it.

- It was awesome. - Oh yeah?

- It was like, uh, two beautiful bodies,

skin to skin, you know. It was, uh, hot.

- Sweaty. - Yeah, yeah, yeah?

- And that was just Hourani and me in the closet.

No, no...

- Roberto Abrantes, 24, Cuban-born, fled to Miami,

- now resides here in Toronto. - He's a boxer.

12 and 2. Hopes to get his status in time

to fight for Canada in the Olympics.

- Why'd I spend half the night sitting on a Cuban middleweight?

- Abrantes' father. Luis Martinez. Sentenced to life

in '92 for killing 2 people in Miami.

He was active in the anti-Castro movement.

- He had an associate who thought it was time to drop the hard line against Castro.

- And Martinez didn't agree. - Shot the man dead

in the street. Killed his wife too,

and crippled a passer-by.

- Martinez was paroled 2 weeks ago. U.S. intel has him coming here.

- If he's on parole, he's not coming over the line legally. - That's right.

And we have the Cuban Minister of Economic Modernization

in town. Ulises Parada.

- Luis Martinez is in his sixties. Do you think he's still a real threat?

- We do over a billion dollars worth of business with Cuba every year.

If Martinez is actually gonna try and kill one of their top officials,

how do you think that'll play in Ottawa? - The son's a possible contact?

- Find out. You and Hourani try and get close to him.

- Why don't you take Roberto? I'll check up on the girlfriend, Andrea Downie.

- Ha, um... you wouldn't be motivated by anything you heard

last night, would you?

No, I don't think so.

[Latin pop music]

Okay, okay, hands up.

It's a rhythm, okay.

Start slow and let the bag come to you.

- I'll never get this. - Sure you will.

Straight jabs, keep your elbows in.

Okay, here, watch.

Punch through the bag.

- You make it look so easy. And that makes me feel so much worse.

Alright?

Try it again. Come on, you'll get it.

- Hey there. - Hi.

- Hey, you got a minute? You mind giving me a spot here? - Oh, um,

sorry. Vlad? Could you spot this gentleman?

Vlad will be glad to help you out.

- Hey there, Vlad. Let's, uh... come on.

- Hi. - Oh, hey, baby. - How's it going?

- Oh, sorry. Roberto was just showing me how to use the speed bag.

- That's okay. No worries. - Layla.

- Why are all the good ones taken? - Yeah, he's not bad.

[Giggling]

- How'd it go? - Vlad said I had

to feel the burn.

I think I strained a pec. You?

- Well, Roberto hasn't seen his father in 15 years.

His parents were estranged even before Martinez was charged with murder.

He was obsessed with overthrowing Fidel.

- That was what he lived for. - You got all this from Roberto?

- We went to lunch. Andrea did most of the talking.

- What else you get? - Roberto's mom divorced Martinez,

went back to her maiden name when they came to New York. A complete break.

- Why'd Roberto come to Canada? - He met Andrea.

She was Canadian. She wanted to come home. He was in love.

- Yeah, love. - Oh yeah.

At lunch, I was afraid to look under the table.

I think we're wasting our time on this guy.

He didn't even want to say his father's name.

- Pay phone right by the water, right? You got that one? You know which one it is, right?

- Yeah. - Alright.

- Hey. - Hey, what's up?

- We picked up something from Roberto Abrantes' phone tap.

Come check it out, check it. His dad just called.

- [Hello?] - [Roberto?]

- [Es tu padre.Luis. Roberto?] - [No.]

- [Roberto, por favor, dejame hablar contigo.] [Dial tone]

- His own kid hung up on him. - That's gotta hurt. - Did we get enough for a trace?

- Please, how can you even doubt? Phone booth at Harbourfront.

Moose and Darnell? Already on their way. - So.

How long before Martinez has his sights trained on the Cuban minister?

- If Luis Martinez were to assassinate a Cuban minister,

Castro would turn this into the biggest piece

of anti-American propaganda you have ever seen.

- Claim Martinez was a U.S. agent. - That's right.

- Are you sure he's here in town? - Yes.

- You people let everyone into this country?

- We didn't get much warning. - Let me tell you,

Luis Martinez was one of the hardest

of the hardliners of the Cuban exile community.

- I doubt that prison changed him. - Then how did he get parole? - A lot of Cuban Americans

lost everything because of Castro.

Some are now wealthy and powerful. Maybe a few

regard him as a loyal soldier in the cause of Cuba Libre.

- Wasn't your family one of those that lost everything?

- Have you been investigating me?

- No, we pick up a few things here and there.

- My father was charged with violation

of revolutionary values,

convicted in a phoney trial,

and executed by a firing squad.

- You and your mother fled to Miami.

- Yeah, where we did not become wealthy or powerful.

I have to ask.

Why in the world would they send you to help us protect a Cuban Minister?

- Didn't I tell you I rubbed a few people the wrong way in Washington?

- I'm not surprised. But still--

Maybe it's a test.

- Sounds more like sadism to me. - Let me assure you, Major.

I will not take a bullet for Parada,

but I will do everything short of that to keep him safe.

Okay.

- I protect the interests of the American people.

That's my job.

- We'll make sure you don't have to duck that bullet.

- Couldn't find anyone who spotted your man at the phone booth. Sorry.

- Anyone fitting his description come off a boat?

- Well, we'll walk the photo around the marinas, but, uh,

you have to know what a long shot that is.

- You got a lot of boats coming into shore, do ya?

- Hundreds of boats in dozens of marinas.

And Americans from across the lake,

Canadians going out and back to Rochester, Lewiston or wherever.

- You do customs checks, right? - With airport security so tight,

we're stopping more boats every week than we used to stop all season.

There's only so much manpower.

- Get off a boat, make a call, and grab a streetcar.

He could be anywhere.

- Minister Parada has arrived with his own personal army. - Has Martinez tried

- to contact his son again? - Uh, I recorded this an hour ago.

- [No, no! Don't answer it.] - [Roberto,]

[you can't keep hiding. If it's your father, you should talk to him.]

- [Why?] - [Because he's your father.]

- [He hasn't been my father for 15 years.] - [Then tell him]

[you don't want to talk to him, ever.]

[At least that's some kind of closure.] - [I can't.]

[No. I can't.] [Cell phone ringing]

- Kessler. - [It's Holland.]

There's bleating from the Rideau to the Potomac.

- Oh? - [Tell me you've made progress on the current peril.]

- We continue to pursue a number of lines of enquiry.

- Major, the art of saying nothing

- is not your particular gift. - [Well, Deputy Minister,]

he has tried to contact his son.

- Ah yes, the boxer. I hear he's a brute.

With a tendency to bleed.

- But the kid doesn't want anything to do with his father.

- [Have you tried waving the flag?]

The one with the rings on it?

- [I will continue to keep you informed, Sir.]

Vlad, looking good.

Hey.

Gray Jackson, Immigration and Customs Security.

Can we talk?

Yeah, okay.

- So, given your father's history,

you understand why people are concerned about the situation?

- I don't know about any Minister, or my father.

And I'm not interested in politics,

- Cuban or any other kind. - Come on, man,

we know your father tried to contact you.

Says who?

- Look, we just need you to arrange a meeting.

- My father killed two people

because of politics.

My mother had to take me away from Miami

because half the people said he was a hero

and the other half said he was a "maldito asesino."

- So you speak to him and you set something up.

- And you guys show up instead of me? - Yeah.

- You expect me to set a trap for my own father? - We think he's planning

- to kill again. - What, you got any evidence?

- Look, you wanna be there, fine. We'll do it together.

Ha, ha!

I don't want to see my father.

You do whatever the hell you like-- arrest him,

you deport him...

You leave me the hell out of it.

- Alright, look, look. You do this, there's people who'd be grateful.

People who help pave the way for your landed immigrant papers.

- It's the same shit as everywhere else.

I do something for you, you do something for me? - Hey, I'm just saying.

- I thought Canada was different.

Anda!I'm freezing here.

Reydel?

I'm, uh, Sergent Lapinski. This is my partner,

- Inspector Darnell Williams. - Que pasa,Dee? - Trey said you could

- help us out, give us the word. - He made D/S yet?

- No, P.C. for life, man. [Chuckling] - We're looking for somebody

- who wants to buy some hardware. - No! That happens?

- New in town. Latino. Old guy, maybe 60. Been inside for the max.

- May want a long gun, something with some range.

That's all you got?

- He's in a hurry. - I'll see what I hear.

- Yeah, give us a call. We never close.

- Hey, tell Trey his chica's hot for me.

Okay. Buen perro.

- So Abrantes won't cooperate. - He was very clear.

He doesn't want anything to do with his dad but he won't sell him out.

- His father's a double murderer. He hasn't seen him in 15 years. Why the loyalty?

- Blood. Martinez is still his father.

- Find another way to exert pressure. - Aw, man, I hated

pulling that Canadian papers thing. This is a good kid.

- We're trying to prevent an assassination.

It's Martinez!

- He's on the phone with Roberto. - [Hello?]

- [Roberto, please don't hang up--]

[Roberto says address in Spanish]

Switching to L.D. 1.

Nothing.

- What'd he say? - Uh,

"14 Northwest Avenue and West Flagler St., 20 minutes.

- Be careful." - Ho-ho. Abrantes has set up a meet with his old man.

- Warn the surveillance team at the apartment.

- Foxtrot Three, subject may be on the move.

- They'll need backup; there are 3 or 4 ways

he can get out of that apartment without being seen.

This is Sergeant Hourani,

we need immediate additional units... - Hey, is Roberto there?

No, it's alright, I'll phone back.

- Andrea says he's in the shower. - Oh, sure. - [This is Foxtrot Three.]

[No sign of activity. Nothing here.] - He's not picking up his cell.

- There's no such intersection in Toronto. - What's with the street names?

- What's the code? - Uh... Anagram? Cryptogram?

It's two different languages. You're going to have to give me a minute here.

- Roberto said 20 minutes. Where can he go

- in 20 minutes? - By cab or subway? This time of day? Halfway across the city.

- Why's he even doing this? - My dad walked out on us when I was a boy.

If he called, I'd probably meet up with him and I wouldn't want cops looking over my shoulder.

- Found 'em. Both those streets are in Miami.

- Little Havana. - Last place Roberto was with his father when he was a boy.

- Do they intersect? - Uh, yes, they do. - What's there?

Um...

- What's that big building? - Hold on.

It's a church, a Catholic church. St. Thomas the Martyr.

- Is there a church by that name in Toronto?

- Too simple, I never would have got that. Don't get used to it.

Me being stumped is a statistical anomaly.

- Oakmount and Tecumseh. - Get units over there, stat. - This is ICS Central...

- No sign of 'em. We're covering the church and the grounds.

- Did we beat him here? - It's been 30 minutes.

- They've met and moved on. - Okay.

Expand your search, get as many people as you can.

Show pictures of Abrantes and Martinez.

- Roberto. - What do you want now?

- I'm sorry you decided not to cooperate.

- You've got guys sitting out here watching me and Andrea, 24/7.

I bet you've bugged my apartment, too.

This is the same stuff my mother used to tell me about Cuba.

- Man, you told us you weren't involved in politics. - I'm not.

- You are aiding and abetting a man who's planning an assassination.

- Prove it. - Just tell us where he is.

- My father's not here to kill anyone. - And you know that for a fact.

- He's here to see me before he dies.

He's got cancer.

Gentlemen.

We checked Martinez' medical records.

- Does he have cancer? - Yes. Of the stomach.

Refused surgery. Doctor says he's got 6 months.

- So he could be telling his son the truth.

- Or he could be planning one last stab at Castro.

- What now? - I'd suggest

to throw the kid in jail for obstruction until he decides to cooperate.

- He believes his father. I don't think we'll crack Abrantes that way.

- We'll maintain surveillance. Maybe the street canvas will net something.

Okay. What else?

We'll keep you informed.

- Better come up with something, Major. Neither one of us can afford to blow this.

Sorry.

I got a little carried away there, didn't I?

- Were you imagining I was somebody else? - No.

Yeah. I guess I was.

- You want to talk? Or keep punching?

It's Roberto.

Men. What's he done?

Nothing.

Did you see that guy who tried to hit on me the other day? - No. Here?

Some kind of undercover cop.

He tried to blackmail Roberto into informing on his father.

Said he could get him his landed status. - What a sleaze.

- Totally. It might as well be Russia or Nazi Germany

- or something. - Why are they after Roberto's father? Isn't he in prison?

- No, Luis is here. He wants to reconcile with Roberto.

- That's huge. How's Roberto feel about it? - You know,

when we were first started going out, Roberto told me his parents were dead.

That's how Roberto feels about his dad-- dead and gone.

Then out of the blue Luis calls.

And the cops show up. It's making Roberto crazy

and I don't know how to help him. - Is Luis staying with you two?

- No. He won't say where he's staying.

He's on parole, so he shouldn't even be here.

Reydel came through.

He told me a .308 sniper rifle and a 9 mil semi-automatic pistol changed hands last night.

- No names, but he was Latino, south of 30, in good shape.

- Where was Roberto Abrantes last night?

- With his girlfriend, as far as we can tell. - Pick up Hourani, check in

with Ulises Parada's security detail.

Comb the itinerary, look for a choke point, somewhere

- where they can take a shot. - Martinez has gotta be getting help.

Where's he staying? How's he gettin' around? - Public transport:

convenient, affordable, anonymous.

- The TTC's got cameras. It'll only take about a week to go through the footage.

- You know, I remember a refugee from Havana I processed a few years ago.

A journalist. She might be able to open a window into the Cuban community for us.

- Any other ideas? - Let's hope this Parada guy is as hard to kill as Castro.

- Oh, Maggie, it's good to see you. I'm sorry I only have half an hour.

I have to go cover Minister Parada's visit to the Pickering Nuclear.

- Well, there have to be a whole lot of Cuban Canadians with reason to hate that guy's guts.

- Well, yeah, I mean, I only did 2 years before Amnesty got me out.

But, uh, there were many activists who were jailed for a long time.

- What happened to Araceli was terrible, but--

But... This is Rene.

He's from Cienfuegos. He and I... disagree.

- Fidel had to rule with an iron fist

or everything he did for Cuba would be destroyed.

- Free education, medical care-- - Rationed gas, food, power.

- That's the American embargo. - Ah!

- Did you know every president since Eisenhower has tried to bring him down?

Because he showed all of Latin America

that you don't have to bow down to the Yankees. - And yet,

we could not have this conversation in a coffee shop in La Habana.

Or parts of Miami.

- Rene... - Or parts of Miami.

I think time is what will take care of the Castro brothers.

- Araceli, what if someone came to town who needed to...

- run below the radar? - You mean someone

who didn't want to wait for time? - Yeah.

You know, Maggie,

you were the very first government official to treat me like a real person,

not just another file to be processed. I could give you

some addresses.

As long as this someone is all you're looking for?

Thank you.

- We reviewed Parada's itinerary.

There's nothing scheduled for tonight.

- The word we got was: the Minister will be in his suite, meeting with "colleagues".

His people are handling the security. - Yeah, right. What is it?

- Party time? - Could be he doesn't want any of us

telling tales in the morning, who knows?

- Maybe this can keep overnight. - Oh, come on, let's pop in and introduce ourselves.

I want to check out his taste in women. [Gunshots]

- I got you, sir! - Immigration and Customs Security!

- Put your guns down! Las armas al suelo!Lower your weapons!

- Canadian security. Lower your weapons.

- Sergeant, get him out. - Ma'am.

Let's go.

- Come on. - Rápido!

What are you doing here?

- The shots came from the roof from a building across the street.

Get your people on it.

This is Sergeant Hourani.

Shots fired at the window of Minister Parada's suite...

- Again, what the hell are you doing here?

LaGarda had a couple of U.S. agents with her.

They were providing security for a man and a woman

- in business suits. - The agents hustled them out

of the room. We weren't introduced.

- What did you learn about the shooting?

- Parada crossed to a table to get a drink.

Reaching for an ice cube probably saved his life.

- LaGarda was right beside him. - Mounties found a rifle

on the rooftop of the building across the street.

- A .308. - No other signs of the shooter.

And no fingerprints.

You think he'll try again?

- He's probably still got the 9-millimetre.

Okay.

- Have you turned up anything? - You first.

What's going on?

- The State Department wanted an off-the-record meeting

- with Ulises Parada. - Why weren't we informed?

- Need-to-know basis. - We're trying to stop this guy

from getting killed. I would say that's need to know.

- If the news of the meeting got out,

that could compromise both Parada

- and my government. - And the reason for the meeting?

- Sorry. - With Castro gone,

Parada could become president of Cuba one day.

Your people were sussing out his intentions to the U.S.

Maybe offering their support if he was willing to play ball.

He's ex-military, so that makes him a good bet--

the President has to have the support of the Cuban Armed Forces.

Fine theories.

But does that get you any closer to getting Martinez?

- Still no proof. But if it is him, his son might be involved.

- You should have locked up the boxer.

Do you have any new leads?

- I told you he wasn't here. Not since yesterday.

I don't think he'll be back.

He had a bag with him when he left.

Got something.

- Gray. They found an empty box of .308 ammo in Martinez' room.

Push Abrantes hard. We're running out of time.

What did you hear from the apartment? - Oh, uh, nada.

They're never there and when they are, they're just talking couples' talk.

- Couples' talk? - Uh, yeah, couples talk. Uh, "Have you seen my keys?"

Or uh, "Should I make something tonight

"or should we just grab some takeout? Oh, pizza or Thai?

Hey, what's on television? What're you watching? Oh, that new dancing show is on again."

It's a wonder the human race gets propagated.

- Phone calls. - Oh! No,

nothing from the old man. But you gotta see this.

- What am I looking at? - Well, to your right is Lieutenant Ulises Parada

of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Cuba in 1977.

Beside him, his mentor,

Colonel Emilio LaGarda.

- What do you know? - Colonel LaGarda was a very popular officer

and public figure. A little too popular. Fidel started hearing footsteps.

So, colonel LaGarda was charged

with betraying the ideals of the revolution. And for the whole enchilada,

guess who was the principal witness against him? - His former protégé,

- Ulises Parada. - Soon to become

Captain, then Major, then Generalissimo Parada. Funny how that works.

- He betrays LaGarda and 30 years later, who's standing next to him when he gets shot at?

- LaGarda's daughter. - So you think our little jalapeño has got something

- she's not telling us? - Review the intel on Martinez in Cuba and Miami.

Get Darnell to reach out to CSIS and CIA. I want to stop coming up a buck short and a day late.

Right.

Have we caught a break?

What's this got to do with present circumstances? - You tell me.

- It's a matter of public record in Cuba that my father and Parada served together.

- Ulises Parada sent your father to his death.

- My father was dead the minute Fidel decided he was getting too powerful.

Parada was just a pawn.

- Martinez gets paroled from a lifetime sentence,

smuggled across the border. He buys weapons

and comes within a foot of killing Parada. What does that suggest to you?

- That somebody's helping him. - Someone with connections,

who knows the borders, who could run a covert operation.

- The Cuban expat community is very large

- and diversified. - Why did Parada walk over to that window last night?

Why did you happen to be standing right there? - He was getting a drink.

- I was watching the room. - Does he know who you are? - No.

We were not introduced. Do you actually think

I'd be involved in an assassination?

- If somebody sent my father to his death...

- I want that bastard to rot in hell for all eternity.

But I'm not gonna be the one to put him there.

- I want you to stay clear of this case.

You still suspect me.

- I'm gonna get whoever's responsible.

Yeah, you do that.

Because my government doesn't wanna have

Parada board that plane to Havana feet first.

Hi.

Hi. What's up?

I have something to tell you.

I'm with Immigration and Customs Security.

No!

- Go away. - Please, let me explain.

Look, we both want the same thing, right?

To keep Roberto from getting hurt.

- Get away from me, man. - This is your last chance, Roberto.

- Get out of here. - We know your father's trying to kill

the Cuban Minister, okay. We have evidence.

- Why would I believe anything you say?

- Roberto admitted meeting his father.

That makes him an accessory to attempted murder.

- I thought you were my friend.

- Let me be your friend. Let me help you.

- His father told Roberto he came to Canada to see him.

- That's all. - Roberto could face jail

and deportation. His life will be ruined,

and you'll never be together.

He didn't do anything.

We have to find Luis Martinez.

- Even if you hate Ulises Parada

- and everything he stands for... - Look,

I told you, I don't care about politics.

I don't want to be involved in any of this.

- Well, you areinvolved in this and Parada's not the only one in danger here. Last time,

innocent people were killed. That could happen again.

- He told me he was here to see me.

- Well, he lied to you, Roberto. - Well, I don't believe you!

- Listen, man, I know how you feel, okay. I got a father

who only comes around when he needs something, alright. It sucks.

- You just leave me alone. - Just tell me where he is.

- I don't know. - Look, this guy is a crazy fanatic

and he's gonna slaughter innocent people.

I don't know where he is!

- Yeah, yeah. He hit the bricks like he was shot out of a cannon. What'd you say to him?

- Just stay close to him, alright. See what he does.

Okay.

- [Phone ringing] - You should answer that.

- [Hello?] - [Andrea?]

- [Andrea, dime por favor...] - Boss!

- [Is Roberto there?] - No, not now.

- [I just called to say good-bye.]

[You tell Roberto good-bye.]

- [You should call him on his cell phone.] - [I have to go.]

- Luis, please don't do anything bad. It will hurt Roberto.

- [Andrea. This is something you cannot understand.]

[I hope Roberto will. I'm sorry, I must go.]

- [Good-bye.] - Luis--

[Dial tone]

- Got it. Payphone, Skyline Hotel.

Gray, what's your status?

- Roberto took a call on his cell.

He's at the Skyline Hotel.

This is on Parada's itinerary. He's got a lunch here today.

- No, I haven't seen that guy. But uh, the hotel here

is full of Hispanics-- I'm sorry, I meant Latinos.

- What's the situation with Parada? - Oh, we're good to go.

We swept the banquet hall and the hotel employees. We're bringing Parada in

through the kitchen now.

Why don't you wait here while I check to see if everything's ready in the hall?

Okay, I think, uh...

- [Plates breaking] - Don't shoot!

Don't shoot! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!

Don't shoot, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!

Okay, we're clear. Stand down.

- Get out of the way so we can get that cleaned up!

Come on, move! I've got 200 meals to push out.

- We're almost ready for you, sir.

Hey, man, what's your name?

Ramira Leon.

Can I get back to work now?

Let me see some I.D.

- Gun! - Drop the gun! - Papi, no!

- Drop it! - No!

No, Papi!

Let's go, this way.

- He tried to explain on the phone.

He said he only took this contract to get into Canada,

- to see me. - So who hired him?

He didn't know.

He never met anyone face to face.

I believed him, though.

I believed he really wanted to make it right between us.

I think he wanted to do that.

Let's go.

Major.

- The hotel waiter was identified as the one who bought the guns for Martinez.

- What is that, a third generation devoted to hating Castro?

- Not according to what Inspector Williams turned up. - What do you mean?

- Darnell's information indicates

the assassination plot originated in Havana.

- Havana. Huh. - Maybe somebody there

didn't like the idea of Parada being the front-runner for the Presidency.

Or maybe they didn't like the idea of him having cozy chats

- with the U.S. State Department. - Anything is possible.

- He may reconsider flying home. - So does that mean that I'm off your suspect list?

- It would appear so. - I'm free to go?

So Roberto Abrantes' landed immigrant status

should be processed in time for the Olympics.

- Apparently Kessler pulled some strings. - He'll never admit it.

You ever see your dad?

Yeah, once in a while.

How 'bout your mom?

She died.

I grew up in foster homes.

You got plans?

I mean tonight?

- I got some stuff I gotta finish here.

Sure. See you tomorrow?

Yeah.

Dad?

It's Gray.

Yeah, it's been a while.

You've been 6 months at the same address.

That's some sort of record for you.

No kidding, the daily double, huh?

Guess everyone wins now and then.

So, what have you been up to?
