Male Reporter: The U.S.
military presence abroad

was rocked today
when a bomb exploded—

Female Reporter:
In the army barracks

in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia.

Second Male Reporter:
A multinational force—

Third Male Reporter:
Ripped the front

off the 8-story military dorm,

exposing just how vulnerable
U.S. troops are here.

And marines on duty seem,
for the most part,

numbed by the horror
of the morning bombing.

Female Reporter:
Early indications suggest this

to be the work
of Sheik Ahmed Bin Talal,

a radical fundamentalist cleric
known to have issued—

The explosion appears
to be the work of terrorists.

And if that is the case,

like all Americans,
I am outraged by it.

[Woman Singing In Arabic]

The cowards who committed
this murderous act

must not go unpunished.

Eagle Eye: Sand Leader,
this is Eagle Eye.

We have a fix on the package.

It is in a Mercedes sedan
traveling south—

Woman On Radio:
Comsat 1,

your coordinates
are as follows.

1 -8-0-5-0.

Package is approaching
target area.

Estimated time of contact
is approximately 1 -4 seconds.

[Speaking Arabic]

[Honking]

Yallah! Yallah!

[Speaking Arabic]

[Machine Gun Fire]

President Clinton:
Let me say again.

America takes care
of our own.

Those who did it
must not go unpunished.

Sand Leader: Eagle Eye,
this is Sand Leader.

The sheik is in our custody.

Sand Leader:
He is alive and well,

and will be delivered intact
by 0800 tomorrow.

[Chanting In Arabic]

[Telephones Ringing]

Woman:
FBI. Good morning.

Man: FBI. Yes.
Good morning, sir.

Woman: FBI.
Counterterrorism Task Force.

That was NYPD.

Brooklyn South
issued a code blue

less than 2 minutes ago,

and they think
hostages are involved.

Business or residence?

A bus.

We just got word

there's some kind
of bomb on the bus.

Have you set up
a perimeter?

Working on it.

OK. What about negotiators?
We got our people on the way?

Got it.

And what about
the bomb squad?

They're going in now.

[Police Radios Crackling]

[Sirens]

How soon
can we get there?

This time of day?
Maybe tomorrow.

[Beeping]

[Siren]

[Beeping]

[High-Pitched Beep]

[People Screaming]

[Explosion]
Oh, fuck.

Man: Open the door!

What?

And nobody's hurt?

Electronically Altered Voice:
This is our first

and last warning.

We expect our demand to be met.

There will be no negotiation.

No more communication
of any kind.

That is all.

Demand for what?

You hear any demand?

Maybe it's a prank.

Some sense of humor.

Here's what I know.

B.P., as in blue paint.

Voice-altering technology.
What do you think?

Available from
The Sharper Image catalog.

Last I looked, they didn't have
an exploding paint bomb.

Still, the rhetoric
sounds political.

You think it's militia?

- No, not their style.
- Frank?

Islamic jihad aren't known
for their sense of humor,

and Hamas is raising
so much money here.

Why queer their deal?

Isn't green the color
of Islam, not blue?

Another good point. Tina,
rub these good points together.

Come up with a composite
of the suspects

by the end of business
today. Anita!

Anita: Yeah?

Run that against the mainframe
for me, OK?

Mike, lab analysis
on the paint.

Report's not in yet,
but we're checking

to see if any blue paint
was sold in quantity.

Good. Danny, how are
the interviews going

with the victims?

Not great.

Check the bus stops.

Maybe somebody
saw him get on.

H ub, I think we're all eager
to give up our weekends on this.

It just occurs to me—

Has anyone
committed a crime here?

I mean assault
with a deadly color?

Here's what I don't like.

They know explosives.
That's not such a big deal.

Everybody on the I nternet
knows explosives,

but they know
our response time.

They put in a call,
and then they walk.

I don't like that.

Excuse me, sir.
I think you should see this.

It just came in on the fax.

"Release him."

Release who?
Who do we got?

Bill Clinton?

He didn't do it.

Charlie Manson?

Danny: Hamas guy
was let go in April.

Frank: Under protest.

Yeah, but why be
so coy about it?

You think it's a phony?

Tina: It's Floyd Rose.

Somebody's flashing
a government badge

at the warehouse where
they're working on the bus.

Our tech guys want to know
if we're cooperating

with any other agencies.

She's looking for the wiring
signatures for the device

and asking for copies
of any fingerprints

we've managed to lift.

She CIA?

Smells like it.

Turns out she's also
been talking

to some of the passengers.

Which one is she?

That's her over there
by the table.

How you doing?

Hi, there.

I'm Anthony H ubbard.

I'm the assistant
special agent in charge.

Oh, shit.

I've been trying to
liaise with you all day.

I'm Elise Kraft,

National Security Council.

Pleasure. You've been trying
to liaise with me all day?

Have you checked
the phone book?

We got 14 lines, not including
the unlisted ones.

Hi. I'm Elise Kraft.

National Security Council.

How you doing?
I'm Colin Powell.

What do you people want
with my bus?

Hey. We're on the same team
here, Agent H ubbard.

Who, exactly, is "we"
on this particular team?

It's never the question
that's indiscreet.

It's only the answer.

Tell you what, Elise.

You send me an official
interagency request

for cooperation,
then I'll give you copies

of everything we come
up with. How's that?

Other than that,
I gotta ask you to leave

before you contaminate
my crime scene

any more
than you already have.

CIA has no charter
to operate domestically,

which puts you in violation
of federal law.

Hey, there's no reason
to be nasty.

You think I'm being nasty?

Ifyou got something you
want to share with me,

being that we're teammates?

Well, unfortunately, not yet,
but as soon as I do—

You'll let me know?

I'll tell you
what I'm gonna do.

I'm gonna ask
some of my teammates

to escort you out of here.

Is that all right with you?

Swell.

Peachy.

Elise.

Thank you.

Is that Elise
with an "A" or an "E"?

N ice meeting you, too,

Assistant Special Agent
In Charge Hubbard.

Anthony.

Pin a tail on her.

I'm on it.

You sleep here?

Immigration called.

U nderneath the false bottom,
we found this.

All in small bills,
so we figured Smurf, right?

And considering yesterday's
terrorist alert,

and where he's been recently,
we'd better call Frank.

Who's trying to score points
with his boss big-time.

Has he broken any laws?

No, sir. He is $20 under
the $ 10,000 limit.

Not anymore.

So, Khalil,

you're saying this
is an inheritance?

Somebody died, and you're
bringing them the money.

No, no. Doory.

He means dowry.

Check out his neck.

10,000 for a wedding?

Frank: The tobacc—

[Puffs]

[Hisses]

Territories.

Put him in play.

Hub: He's heading north
onto Bell Parkway.

Back home
the security services

would be up this guy's ass
with a poker.

What do we do?
We let him go.

Stay back
a little bit, Frank.

It's not my first date, H ub.

He's taking the BQE.

Looks like it's Brooklyn.

Probably Brooklyn.

He's all yours, Ray.

Ray, go a little softer
on him, OK?

Pass him off to Patsy.

Patsy, watch out
for reflections.

Hub: OK. You got him.

Ah, here. Got the judge.

Morning, Judge.
How are you?

Yeah. How are things
down at second circuit?

Yeah, right.
I know what you mean.

Listen, we got a situation here.

Who's he talking to?
Hold on one second, Judge.

Who is he talking to?

We getting film on this?
Who's he talking to?

Don't know him.

If we were allowed
to get sound

on them, we'd know.

Hub: Yeah, yeah, Judge.

No, sir.

No, sir, not yet.

No, not yet, sir, but—

We got reason to—

Damn it, Mike.
Mike, back off.

Frank: Oh, shit.
He's making him.

Shit! Fuck!

Hub: All units go!

Look, I got to get
back to you, Judge.

Shit!

[Horn Honks]

Hub: Go around.
Go around, Frank.

I got him, I got him.

Frank: There he is.

We got him.
Stuyvesant and Throop.

Cut him off!

There he is.

Hey, come back, Khalil!

Khalil!

All units, we got a red van

going east on Stuyvesant
off of Vernon. Red van.

Did you get plates
on that, Frank?

Plates? No.

But you got to love
that move.

No plates.

Theyjust found the van.

Doesn't look like
they'll find any prints.

Hub: Vehicle I.D.?

Reported stolen
plates are bogus, too.

What about hair, fiber?

Already on its way
to the lab.

Hub, we're checking
this guy out

in the red book
right now.

Good job, Mike.

It's Floyd Rose.

Go, Floyd.

Floyd: You're not
gonna believe this.

Guess who
just showed up.

How's she living, Floyd?

She's got 2 in a Plymouth,
at least 3 inside,

and see that guy
walking his dog?

He did his business
about an hour ago,

and they're still walking.

I had a dog like that once.

It's not his dog, wet wick.
They're spies.

The dog works for the CIA?

Hub Over Radio:
All units report.

This is unit one.

We're good to go.

Man On Radio:
Unit 2, we're ready.

All right, let's roll.

Federal agents!
Against the fence!

- [Dog Barking]
- Man: FBI!

Put your hands
behind your head.

Hi, guys.
I expect you know the drill.

Man: Hold it right there.

Hello.

Elise.

I never touched him.

Really?

Well, we're gonna
have to take him

into custody anyway.
Mike, Frank.

What are you gonna charge
him with, jaywalking?

I don't suppose I could have a
little chat with him here first?

I don't think so, Elise.
Not in this lifetime.

You know, Hub—
may I call you Hub?

Yes, you may.

Ifyou guys hadn't blown
the surveillance,

we'd have been able
to follow the money.

What do you say, Khalil?

You would have led us right
to your friends, wouldn't you?

What friends?

Take him out.

What friends, Elise?

What have you got
for me, huh?

Come on. Share something
with me, Elise.

Enlighten me.

You can tell me now,
or you can tell me downtown.

You know, one phone call,
and he's mine.

You know the number.

I have about, uh—

You have the right
to remain silent.

You have the right
to an attorney.

That's what you also have.

Oh, come on.

Hey, do you have any idea

what you're starting here?

What kind of shit storm
this could turn into?

Kidnapping, obstruction ofjustice,

assault.

Get her out of here.

I love what you've done
with the place.

Frank: So, Elise,

you OK back there?

You don't get carsick
or anything?

Those handcuffs too tight?

Shuf Mountains, right?

Shiite or Sunni?

Wow. You're really good.

She's really good.

So what's going on
here, Elise?

Paint bomb,
was that a warning?

American University of Beirut.

I was there from '79 to '82.

No shit.

Yeah. My father taught
economics. Henry Kraft.

Is there a terrorist cell
operating in the city

that we're unaware of?

It's such a tragedy.

Growing up there
was like paradise.

Like an exotic Paris.

Right, Frank?

Yeah, it's real exotic

on Rikers Island, too.

You know what they do
to women in there?

Mmm, yum.

OK.

[Telephone Rings]

Frank here.

[Telephone Rings]

Go.

3 men, definitely armed,

and this time
they're still on the bus.

So no communication
of any kind?

No, no, it's weird.

They're just in there.

Just in there. OK.

See ifyou can get the frequency
of the bus driver's radio.

We'll try and get him
on the phone.

Frank.

Yeah.

Get a couple
of DAT phones, OK?

Make sure they're
secure portables.

Perfect. The negotiator's
on his way.

A couple of techies, too, Frank.

We want sound.

Sir.

There's children on that bus.

We counted about 6.

That gives us something
to work with, then, doesn't it?

Elise: What's happening
out there?

Take her outside
the perimeter, will you?

They've taken another bus,
haven't they?

Hey, talk to me.

You want to talk now.

You want me to be your
friend now. Is that it?

Listen. These guys
are the real deal.

Are they? How do you know?

Is there a terrorist cell
operating in Brooklyn?

Yes.

The blue bus,
was that a warning?

Yes, and I'm afraid
they're gonna blow this one.

How do you know they're
gonna blow the bus

if they haven't
blown it already?

- I don't know.
- You don't know.

They haven't asked
for anything, have they?

Frank: The driver's name
is Larry Kaiser.

He says they've got explosives

strapped to their chests,

they've got
automatic weapons,

and he thinks they're
speaking Arabic.

Where the hell
is the negotiator?

The tunnels
got 20-minute delays.

They're working
on both bridges.

OK. Did he say anything else
about the device?

Did he describe it an any way?

Did he talk about cords
or buttons or anything?

No. He didn't say.

Oh.

Oh, God.

They're not here to negotiate.

Meaning?

They were waiting
for the cameras.

They want everybody watching.

You've got
the shooters in place?

Yeah. So?

Use them.

Kill them now.

Look, it's lose-lose
any way you play it.

You want to lose
little or lose big?

I got the marksmen
on the comm.

They're waiting for a clean shot.

Let me have the phone.

Hello, Larry.

This is Agent Hubbard, FBI.

I'm gonna be negotiating
our way out of this.

Hub: Yes, we got somebody
here who can translate,

but you gotta remain calm.

All right.
Put them on the phone.

Hello, sir.

My name is Anthony.

I want you to know right from
the start I'm not the boss.

[Speaking Arabic]

I don't have the authority
to negotiate any deals

or to respond to any demands.

[Speaking Arabic]

You need anything in there?
Any medical supplies?

Anybody need any help?

[Speaking Arabic]

I don't even know
if they understand.

Look, I know you may not
want to talk to me,

but are you willing
to listen to me?

[Speaking Arabic]

Whatever grievances you have,
whatever quarrels,

surely it doesn't involve
these children.

[Speaking Arabic]

I'm asking you, please,

would you please
let the children go?

[Frank Speaking Arabic]

Please.

[Speaking Arabic]

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

I appreciate your gesture.

The best way
to get what you want

in this situation is to show
yourself to be reasonable,

which you have done.

I appreciate that.
I really do.

This way, kids.
Come on.

Keep going.

Now we got some more
to talk about.

As you can see, I'm unarmed.

I have no weapons.

And what I propose...

is that you let
these people go...

and I'll take their place.

This way you don't have to worry
about pizza deliveries

or people running back
and forth to the bathroom

or anything like that.

[Speaking Arabic]

And I guarantee you that
the police department,

FBI, everybody,

they'll disappear.

You look out
your window now,

you'll see the helicopters
are already moving out.

I'm gonna take your silence

to mean that you're
considering my offer.

I'll tell you what.

Why don't you just let
the elderly people go?

[Speaking Arabic]

You know these old people.

They've been standing
up there for a long time.

Why not just let them go?

[Speaking Arabic]

Thank you very much.
Now we just—

[Sirens]

[I naudible]

Female Reporter:
The worst terrorist bombing

in the United States
in the past 5 years

took place on this site
earlier today.

Male Reporter:
Beirut came to Brooklyn today

when the worst terrorist
bombing in the United States

since Oklahoma City

took the lives
of more than 25 people—

Second Female Reporter:
Authorities are withholding

the names of those
who died—

Second Male Reporter:
No group has yet stepped forward

to take responsibility
for the blast.

Authorities are refusing
to comment

other than to say
that the investigation

is already well under way.

All right, everybody take a seat.

ASACs, supervisors.

Just got off the phone
with leaders

of the Arab community.

We have their complete
support and cooperation.

They love this country
as much as we do.

They want these criminals
brought to justice

as badly as we do.

Having said that, let me say this.

I want to rumble
every trap, hole, market,

community center,
every student organization

that has ever said a bad word
about this country,

I want to know about 'em.

I want you to turn the heat up

under every one
ofyour resources. Every one.

Every snitch,
twist him inside out.

Every source,
turn him upside down.

See what falls
out of his pocket.

Shake the trees,
throw some money at 'em.

Whatever it takes.

I want results.

Call your families,
find a sleeping bag,

because nobody
is going home

until we find a strand
to pull on.

I don't want to see
anybody walking!

You better be running!
What?

- Now, Mike.
- Yeah.

Have you got positive I.D.?

We don't have a positive I.D.
on anybody.

All right.

Oklahoma City.

The first 24 hours

are the only 24 hours.

Do what you do best.

[Whispering]
Tell me about the money.

[Speaking Arabic]

He says he loves America.

He only wanted to get away
from the security services.

Sure, sure. Tell me
about the money.

[Speaking Arabic]

He's just sorry.

He didn't know he was
doing anything bad.

Tell me about the money!

[Speaking Arabic]

His cousin
introduced him to a man

who promised him $200
for his dowry

if he took the suitcase
to an address in Brooklyn.

He's a mule.

[Door Opens
And Closes]

I want to run down
every rental agreement

from every landlord
in Brooklyn.

Hotels, motels, flophouses.

It's cash.

They're the only ones
in America using cash.

We got a positive I.D.
on 5 of the victims so far.

I need a 6-man team.

I have put a lot
of money in this joker.

It's about time
he started earning it.

I don't care about
any convention.

I want to see all
security cam videos

from every nearby ATM,
convenience store, bank.

What's the time difference
between here and Amman?

Uh, 7 hours.

This is a plasmagram
of the SEMTEX used in bus 87.

As you can see,
the signature's identical

to that used
in the army barracks.

Frank: What kind of idents
do we have so far?

We're still checking all
the latents on the computer.

Man: I'm looking
for real-time video.

I need faces, not voices.

If it's international,

we're talking
a $2 million reward.

Yeah, I want a list
of the next 10 targets.

Frank:
Check with Interpol.

Any foreign matter?

We got some shrapnel.

We got to run it
through the lab,

see if it matches
the metal on the bus.

Does the lab stay open

till we find out what
we're dealing with or what?

24 hours. You busy?

What a fuckin' mess.

Excuse me, sir.

Got a hit.
I found him.

This is the list
of the probables.

And that's the hit.

Ali Waziri.

Ladies and gentlemen...

[Clears Throat]

Meet the late, uh,
Ali Waziri,

one of the bombers
of bus 87.

We were able to trace
this sucker

to a, uh...
group in Ramallah.

That's West Bank,
not West Side,

for all you people just
joining us from Nebraska.

Tina.

We pulled his landing card
and his I-94,

so now we know he came in
3 days ago out of Frankfurt.

What we need now is to fill in
the time between his arrival

and the time
of the incident.

We need
all known associations,

and most of all,
we need an address.

Here's the kicker, guys—

Ali Waziri was on
the terrorist watch list.

How'd he
get into the country?

Here it is.

Student visa. J-1.

Now, where's the original?

Probably in his passport.

Where's the passport?

It's in a million pieces.

Where's the copy?

Point of issuance.

Could be American consulate
in Tel Aviv, Amman, Cairo...

Every legal attaché
that we have

in every consulate

in every city that Frank
just mentioned,

get them on the phone.
I want the visa. Yes?

Sir, they need you in the lab.

I want the visa, Danny.

It's cotton.

Pure unadulterated
Egyptian cotton.

So you're saying
they're Egyptian.

No. What I'm saying is
this is just—

What they use in funerals.

Guy was wearing
a shroud.

The real deal?

That's right.

I'm gonna go have
a little chat

with our new friend.

I thought one phone call
and you were out of here.

Yeah, well,
I didn't make the call.

Why not?

Are you all right?

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. A little tinnitus
in the ear.

I need to know
what I don't know.

Yeah, life's too short.

Are you hungry?

Are we ordering in?

The funeral shroud
is the final step

in the ritual of
self-purification.

First, a fast, then—

The washing of the body,
then the shroud, right.

I saw it on 60 Minutes.

Tell me something
I don't know.

In March,

we identified the man
we believed responsible

for bombing
the army barracks last year.

In August, he went to Lebanon
where he was extracted.

Extracted?
Extracted by whom?

I see.

His name's Sheik Ahmed Bin Talal.

He's Iraqi.

He's something
of a religious leader.

With something of
a devoted following?

Hmm.

OK, I can understand

why we wouldn't want
to advertise the fact

that, uh, our government's
in the kidnapping business,

but why not let us know?

Well, he's still
being debriefed.

They don't want to go public
with the charges.

What about his followers?

Well, clearly they're committed.

Meaning?

I n this game,
the most committed wins.

Hub. Excuse me.

We made the guy
in the picture.

Frank: My people.

The last of
the unambivalent smokers.

His name is Samir Nazhde.

He teaches Arab Studies
at Brooklyn College.

He's the one who sponsored
Ali Waziri's student visa.

And dig this—

His brother blew up
a movie theater in Tel Aviv.

You might consider
leaving him alone.

Why would we
consider that?

Well, you can play him
like a cop

and haul him in now
and get your arrest,

or you can tag him,

let him lead you
to the really big fish.

[Speaking Arabic]

You're fishing, and he's
getting visas for bombers.

You ever heard of
catch-and-release?

M m-hmm. And he's on
the first plane to Tunis.

[Sighs]
Hub.

Hub, now's the time.

Take him down.

Go.

FBI.

FBI. Freeze!

Hey, hey, hey! Ow!

U hh!

Samir Nazhde,
my name is Frank Haddad.

I'm a federal agent.

We have reason to believe
that you're an accessory

in the bombing of bus 87.

Are you crazy?

You were an associate
of Ali Waziri.

Sir, I know nobody
of that name.

You sponsored
his student visa.

I sign these applications
as a matter of course.

Hundred of them.
You know how it is.

Everybody wants
to come to America—

You spent 2 years in Israeli
jails during the intifada.

Well, yeah, I did,

but the only ones who didn't
were women, like you.

Ay!

[Both Speaking Arabic]

Frank.

I'm sorry.

Family matter.

You're going downtown, my friend.

You cannot harm me.
I know my rights.

Defrauding the I.N.S.
is a federal offense.

Reservation for one, please.

We need a search warrant on Samir.

Samir.

Frank, let me talk
to you for a second.

You ever hit a prisoner again,

I'm gonna have your badge.

Someday I'll tell you
what his people

did to my village in '75.

All right, all right.
You're preaching to the choir.

Just don't do it again.
All right?

Now act like I'm capable
of saying something funny.

Some people are watching.

Hey, Danny, find me a judge

who'll play ball
with me this time

and set up a polygraph for Samir.

You know, I still don't understand

why we're tipping
our hand with him.

What's there to tip?

Yeah, what's there to tip?

Protecting your asset,
aren't you? Aren't you?

He's your asset.
He's yourjoe.

He's working for you.
You're his case officer, right?

Uh, sometimes, in addition
to being a nationality,

being a Palestinian
is a profession,

a very lucrative one.

Meaning he's yourjoe, right?

Mine, yours,

the Israelis, the Saudis.

One time or another,

everybody in the Middle East

is sleeping
with everybody else.

So you're saying
you sleep around.

Only professionally.

So we share him.

- No.
- No?

Call I.N.S., check Samir's status,

start deportation procedures.

I can't let you do that.

Oh, you can't
let me do that.

What precisely
is your involvement

with these people, Elise?

Samir has been
a very important project

of mine for some time.

I'm the only one
he'll deal with.

He's very well-connected
and extremely high-strung.

Call I.N.S., Frank.

How easy is it
to get inside, Frank?

How good are your sources
in the community?

How many people
you got in Hamas? Huh?

No surveillance.
I've seen your deft touch.

Daily reports, we tap his phone.

I see the transcripts.

No problem.

- And I run him.
- We share him.

No. He can't know
we're talking.

I won't tell him.

- And no poly?
- Never.

Done.

All right, let him fly, Frank,

but I want to see
some food on my plate,

you understand me?

Any more surprises
for me, Elise?

Not tonight.

I'm gonna get some sleep.

You let him hit me!

How can you
let them hit me?

Well, next time,
don't be such a smart-ass.

Hey, don't tell me
what I have to do.

Do we really have to have
this conversation again?

Do we?

[Speaking Arabic]

I need you to help me.

I need you to be strong,

like you've always
been strong,

for both of us.

Samir, look at me.

Look at me.

[Telephone Rings]

[Ring]

[Beep]

Go.

Yeah, Frank?

You know, some people just
cannot live in the camps.

For my brother,
it was already like dying.

The only thing
he lives for is movies.

And then some sheik came
and tell him that...

to die for Allah is beautiful.

And if he does this thing,

our parents
will be taken care of,

and he will live on
in paradise with 70 virgins.

I mean...

[Chuckles, Sniffles]

70.

And my brother,

he need to believe it
very much.

So he straps 10 sticks
of dynamite to his chest.

And he went to the movie.

And then I become a V.I.P.

It's very confusing.

So who are you
afraid of betraying?

We know these people.
They bomb. They maim.

They represent the Palestine
you want to build?

They're using you.

You are using me, too.

Everybody uses
the Palestinians.

Hey. You make reports
about our little talks?

And what about fucking me?

I had to get special
permission for that.

Beats the shit out of cable.

He asked to wait inside.

Good morning.
Bill Devereaux.

I know who you are.
I was with the 82 nd—

Airborne.
Yeah, I know.

I was in the 173rd
at the time.

God, duty, honor, country—

- Remember?
- M m-hmm.

Where on Capitol Hill
or Wall Street or Hollywood

have you heard anyone utter
one of those phrases

in the last 10 years?

What brings you
to New York, General?

The president's concerned.

He's worried that—
Have you met the president?

U h, no, I haven't.

I read the newspapers, though.

I know he's concerned
about terrorism.

Well, with all due
affection for the man,

the president
doesn't know fuck-all

about the Mideast or terrorism

that I don't write
on his cue cards.

He is an expert
in covering his own ass,

ifyou catch my meaning.

Yes, I do.

So I guess you didn't
come up here

just for a cup of coffee, huh?

With all due respect,

I think we're on
the right track.

That's exactly
what I told the president.

The army's not some big
green police machine.

Stick with the men
on the ground

is what I advised
the president.

Well, I appreciate
your support.

As long as you're sure you're
not chasing your tail here.

So what can you tell me

about the Sheik
Ahmed Bin Talal?

Just that he's old news.

But we received
2 communications

from the bombers
to release him.

We can't release him.

I know our stated policy
is to never negotiate—

We can't release him
because we don't have him.

We never did.

Our latest intel
says that he's dead.

The agency doesn't think so.

The CIA didn't know
the Berlin Wall was coming down

until bricks started
hitting them in the head.

Who's your source?

Elise Kraft.

A woman will never
understand the Middle East.

Just between you and me,

Elise Kraft wouldn't know
a sheik from a prophylactic

by the same name.

Well, I, uh, appreciate
the heads up.

Hub, we followed up
that tip on—

Why, Elise, what a nice surprise.

How are you?

Hello, General.

How nice to see you again.

Please, don't let me interrupt.

Uh, sorry. The tip on
the landlord— It looks solid.

Sounds like I should
get out ofyour way

and let you
get back to work.

Agent Hubbard. Pleasure.

Ifyou need anything,
you know where we are.

Thank you.

Making new friends?

Not 2 judges from now,
not 2 hours from now,

not 2 minutes from now.

These guys are gonna
split any second.

Frank's working on
another warrant.

You don't understand.
These guys are pros.

From the age of 12,

they've been dodging
people like you,

people better than you.

Yeah, you mean
people like you.

Hub, this isn't about
your sparkling record, OK?

OK. It's against the law, Elise.

Yeah, just because
you went to night school

or filled out the back
of a matchbook,

whatever you did
to get a law degree,

doesn't make you
Sir Thomas More.

And just because
you checked my files...

You're gonna lose them!

doesn't make you
an expert on me.

You think I want to lose them?

You think I'm in
the losing people business, huh?

If I don't
take them down properly,

they hit the streets in 2 hours.

I don't care if I find SEMTEX,
plutonium, dynamite,

self-lighting
charcoal briquettes—

Without the right warrant,
they walk, you understand?

They've also
got a warrant, OK?

A warrant from God.
They're ready to die.

Your quaint laws,

they don't mean shit
to these people.

Last I checked,
you're an American citizen.

You know,
I saw your file, too.

And I'm sorry
that the cold war is over

and all you little masters-
of-the-universe CIA types

got no work over in
Afghanistan or Russia

or I ran or whatever
the hell it is,

but this ain't
the Middle East.

Oh, really?

We're in.

[Men Speaking Arabic
Over Headphones]

Frank: It's the same guys
as the bus. I know it.

What are they saying?

They're discussing
how difficult it is

to find a decent
cup of coffee over here.

I make out 3 voices.
What have you got?

It seems like 3.

If we had microwave,
we'd know for sure.

The CIA's got microwave.

How come we don't
have microwave?

There are 3 of them.

All day long, they watch TV.

And eat pizza.

Nothing but pizza.
Pizza, pizza, pizza.

Pizza.

You want change or what?

No. Put it on floor.

Haven't you heard?
Crime is down 7% in this city.

[Speaking Arabic]

[Clapping]

Hooray for pizza!

[Conversing In Arabic]

FBI! Hands in the air!
Put your gun down!

FBI! Freeze!

Aah!

Report!

- 2 up!
- 3 up!

We're clear!
We're clear!

Hubbard: Everybody OK?

We're good.

Good, good.
You all right?

Yeah.

How we doing
over here? Fred?

He's terminal.

Mike?

He's dead.

Elise?

Gone.

Hub.

Take a look.

It's all here,
every component.

Det cords, SE MTEX.

Just like the bus.

We got 'em.

Female Reporter: 3 men
were reported killed today

after a shootout
with the FBI

in a quiet neighborhood
in Brooklyn.

Male Reporter: Already there are
unconfirmed reports of a link

between the victims, who are
reported to be Arab-speaking,

and the bombers of bus 87.

FBI spokesman,
Anthony Hubbard.

Uh, we are presently
following up on as many leads,

and, uh, we're confident
that we're on the right track.

I think we're all happy
that these criminals

are off the streets,

and we can all get on
with our lives.

Dad!

Yeah!

[Chanting In Arabic]

I think the FBI
deserves special recognition

for the speed

with which they handled
this current crisis.

I'd especially like
to single out

Special Agent Tony H ubbard

and the men and women
of the NYPD, FBI...

Here we are.

Drink up, everyone.

My first boyfriend
was Palestinian.

You know, my father
used to say

they seduce you
with their suffering.

Have you ever
been over there?

Have you seen the camps?

No. No, never been.

Oh, there's these incredibly
warm, hospitable people,

living in this horrible place.

But yet you work
against them.

Only the crazy.

I tend to be suspicious
of all true believers,

present company included.

Are you saying I'm a fanatic?

Why are you a fed?

You read my file.
You tell me.

OK. All right, I'll tell you.

Catholic school...

St. Raymond's
in the Bronx.

President of this,
captain of that,

hard work,
make a difference,

fair play,

change the system
from within.

Rah-rah-rah.

What?

What about you?
What do you believe?

Like what?

Like right and wrong.

It's easy
to tell the difference

between right and wrong.

Is it?

Yes. What's hard is
choosing the wrong

that's more right.

I just...

OK.

[Laughing]

No, I just want
to make things

a little better, OK?

Ignore me.
I'm shit-faced.

Elise. Elise.

- Frank.
- Ahh.

Hi.

Tell us all about
being a spook.

Come on.
It's the Bay of Pigs.

You're there on the beach
with all the girl scouts.

I love the way you guys

predicted the fall of
the Soviet Union. Genius.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, right.

And J. Edgar Hoover
wore a dress, right?

Mmm. I love Lebanese men.

Come on, let's dance.

Come on, Hub.
Dance with me.

Sure.

It's your wife.

[Laughing]

[Slow Song Playing]

Oh.

Oh, jeez.

This feels like high school.

Yeah.

Except my prom date
didn't wear a gun.

So what's the latest
on Samir?

I want a list of every
visa he sponsored.

I'm not sure he'll do it.

No?

You know, I once knew
this undercover guy

who cared so much
for his source...

He's a source, period.

You ever consider the fact

that he might be in bed
with the other side?

Samir in bed with them?

That would be too much
to wish for.

You're so confident.

Only in bed.

[Glass Shattering]

[Rumbling]

[Horns Honking]

[Siren]

Frank:
It's a Broadway theater.

It went offjust as people were
getting up for intermission.

There are bodies everywhere.

[Horns Honking]

[Screaming]

Sir, help 'em!
They're trapped inside!

Male Reporter: No group
has taken responsibility

for the bombing yet
so far as we know.

Female Reporter: Scores of
the wealthiest and brightest

of New York society
were killed last night

when a bomb ripped
through a crowded theater.

The list ofvictims
is a veritable who's who

of the city's
cultural leaders.

You can be sure that all of
our considerable resources

are being brought to bear
on the situation.

Male Reporter: New York City
has been brought to its knees

by the events
of the past week.

Retail sales are down 72%.

Hate crimes
have skyrocketed.

And the FBI seems,
at least for the moment,

incapable of stopping
the terror.

Once busy streets
are eerily silent

as many have fled.

Man: Ira, why do they let
those people in the country?

They know
who those people are.

Woman: Ifyou think I'm
gonna let my kids out there

with all this stuff going on,
you have got to be crazy.

Female Reporter: The Senate
I ntelligence Committee

today authorized
a special panel

to investigate the current
situation in New York City.

Announcer: Tonight at 10:00—
Terrorism in the U nited States.

Man:
The worst kind of reaction

is a reaction
that's based on fear.

Frank:
He says ifyou're

on the State Department
terrorist watch list,

you cannot get
into the country.

So I say Ali Waziri
was on the watch list,

and he got in.

What did
the State Department say?

They told me to call I.N.S.

What did I.N.S. say?

They told me to call State.

[Loud Bang]

Oh, God!

The purpose of this meeting—

Is to keep
our city safe,

and your department's
responsibility—

My department what, asshole?

Is to keep us safe.

[Arguing]

[Feedback]

Look, I'm very sorry, but we're
gonna have to raise our hands

before we ask a question, OK?
Yes, sir?

Howard Kaplan, I.N.S.

How you doing, Howard?

Good, thanks.

So, we pulled every
ethnic visa in the city

and traced them
to the source.

Danny?

Bring 'em in,
and we talk to 'em.

What about translators?

Woman: How many people
we talking about here?

1,600, maybe more.

- 1,600?
- That's right.

Where are we gonna
put 1,600 people?

Danny, slow down, OK?
Yes, sir?

What about
a military presence

at J FK and La Guardia?

I don't think we're there yet,

and I don't think it's gonna
stop these criminals. Sir?

What about protecting
the Arab population?

There's a lot
of anger out there.

I represent the Arab
Antidefamation League.

Whatever injustices
my people may be suffering

at this very difficult moment,
we will continue

to show our commitment
to this country.

I appreciate that.
Thank you, sir.

And I want to thank everybody
for their patience today.

This has been
an extremely difficult—

[Beeping]

time.

London, Paris,

Athens, Rome,

Belfast, Beirut—

We're not the first city
to have to deal with terrorism.

In Tel Aviv—

[Beeping]

In Tel Aviv, the day after they
bombed the market in Tel Aviv,

the market was open,
and it was full.

[Beeping]

This is New York City...

[Ring]

[Beeping]

We can take it.

[Pagers Beeping,
Cell Phones Ringing]

Oh, my God.
It's the Buckley School.

Not kids.

One of the moms
was carrying a gun,

wounds the guy as he's
planting the device.

He kills her, then he
locks them all in the room.

Any kids get hurt?

I don't know.

It's over there on the table.

I don't know if it's
a radio or a timer or what.

Whoa, hold right there.

See ifyou can move in
a little closer on the device.

Right there. Focus that.

Radio device.
He's got a radio control.

Frank: What the fuck's
the news media doing here?

They must have been
monitoring our frequency.

Danny, your boys were
supposed to call the F.A.A.

to clear the airspace!

I'm on it, I'm on it.

Do it now.

This is NYPD...

get those fuckin' birds
out of here!

[Girl Crying]

Hub.

[Screaming]

Everybody out.
Take your time.

Frank:
Need some help here.

All right, come on.

Either we answer this threat
quickly and convincingly,

or next week, there
will be a hundred more

all over the world.

Sounds great, General.

Why can't we find out
who's behind it?

It seems to me, gentlemen,

that conventional
law enforcement

just isn't up to the task.

How about who's behind
who's behind this?

Either Libya, Iran, I raq,
possibly Syria.

Ask a question,
get an atlas.

All I know is
that we must respond.

That's an excellent
idea, Senator.

How do we do that?

Find out who they are
and bomb the shit out of them.

And ifwe can't find out?

I hate to be the voice of doom,
but it keeps escalating.

First a bus, then a theater.
What's next?

How about sending in
the National Guard?

The National Guard is
for riot control, Senator,

not for counterterrorism.

The army then. I've read
the contingency plans.

It's established legal doctrine—

Posse Comitatus.

The army can't be turned
against our own people.

Even if that's what are own
people are asking for, 3 to 1 ?

If the president's willing
to declare a state of-

President Lincoln declared
martial law in 1862.

He suspended habeas corpus.

Which the Supreme Court

later found unconstitutional.

Ex parte Milligan.

And I've got an election
in November—

Ex-United States congressman.

Let's save the quips for
the Sunday morning talk shows.

The president's plane
lands in 2 hours,

and we owe it to him
to have a consensus.

You don't fight a junkyard dog
with A.S.P.C.A. rules.

What you do is
you take the leash

offyour own bigger,
meaner dog.

General.

The army's a broadsword,
not a scalpel.

Trust me, Senator,

you do not want the army
in an American city.

But hypothetically,

how long would it
take you to deploy?

You know we can't go in

until the president invokes
the War Powers Act.

I understand that, General.

Let's assume for a moment

that the order
has been given.

12 hours after the president
gives the order,

we can be on the ground.

One light infantry division
of 10,700 men.

Elements of the Rapid
Deployment Force,

Special Forces, Delta,

A.P.C.s, helicopters, tanks,

and, of course, the ubiquitous
M-16 A-1 assault rifle.

A humble enough weapon until
you see it in the hands of a man

outside your local
bowling alley or 7-11.

It will be noisy,
it will be scary,

and it will not be mistaken
for a VFW parade.

I remind you,
General Devereaux

does not speak for
official army policy.

A police function
has become accepted

as our role in Haiti
and Somalia.

Make no mistake.

We will hunt down
the enemy,

we will find the enemy,

and we will kill the enemy.

And no card-carrying member
of the ACLU

is more dead set against it
than I am,

which is why I urge you...

I implore you...

do not consider this
as an option.

I knowjust what
the president's going to say.

That's exactly why you're
the only man for the job.

I'd like to introduce
Anthony Hubbard.

He's my ASAC on the ground
up in Brooklyn.

His team was able to take out
the first cell within 36 hours

of the attack on the 87 bus.

He's also the man
who took out the terrorist

in that schoolhouse.

Hub.

The job of the FBI is to...

to respond.

The job of the army— to defend.

With the presence
of the army,

our ability to investigate
will be seriously inhibited.

It will push these criminals
further underground.

Most importantly,
you can't fight a war

against an enemy
you can't see.

I think ifwe exercise
patience, restraint,

allow our men and women
up in New York

to do theirjob...

I think we'll be effective.

Thank you, Agent Hubbard.

I, too, think that we should
proceed with caution.

Some ofyou may not know
Sharon Bridger.

Sharon was posted in Iraq

as part of
our covert operations

during the GulfWar.

Sharon.

Sir, if I may.

Thank you.

I'm sure everyone here

knows the traditional model
of the terrorist network.

One cell controls
all others.

Cut off the head,
the body will wither.

U nfortunately, the old wisdom
no longer applies.

The new paradigm
is each cell

operates independent
of the other.

Cut off one head,
another rises up in its place.

Bus 87 was the work
of the first cell

whose remaining elements,
we believe,

the FBI took down.

This then activated
the work of cell 2.

The theater gala.

At the most,
we believe, there are 3,

possibly 4 cells.

Well, then how much longer

before we can take out
the last cell?

We don't know.

Male Reporter: This is a tragedy
of staggering proportion.

One Federal Plaza
was the headquarters

of the FBI Counterterrorism
Task Force,

as well as many other
federal agents...

Female Reporter:
Authorities are withholding

the names of those who died.

Male Reporter: The worst
in New York City's history.

The most devastating...

Second Newsman:
Letters of condolence

have been received from
leaders around the world.

Boris Yeltsin forwarded
a message...

Body count's a little
over 200 so far.

What about our people?

Mike, Tina.

They were all
in there working.

Hub.

This is Colonel Hardwick,
Army I ntelligence.

Colonel.

I'm here as an adviser only.

I intend to keep
a low profile.

Appreciate your concern.

I don't mean
to be insensitive,

but, uh, just what exactly are
your capabilities at this point?

Your infrastructure?

You're standing on
our infrastructure.

Excuse me.

Hey, Hub,

they managed to get
a partial VI N number

off the van.

DMV says it was reported
stolen the day before...

In Brooklyn?

You got it.

Hub, the final body count
just came in.

600 dead.

[Doorbell Buzzes]

I'm very sorry
about your friends.

Frank, it's, uh...

Sharon.

I didn't catch
your last name, Sharon.

Bridger.

How you doing, Frank?

Been better.

[Sighs]

Well...

the agency came up with
another list of probables.

I think we should
circulate them.

Hey...

this stuff might be good.

Why was there
no warning from Samir?

Because he didn't
know anything.

Says Samir.

Says me.

Maybe I'll ask him.

Yeah, over my dead body.

Over 600 dead bodies.

Look, he's one
of the good guys, OK?

How can you be so sure?

Because he was part
of the operation

to destabilize
Saddam Hussein with me, OK?

Samir is a go-between.

He risked his life
for us over there.

Go-between who, Sharon?

Look, come on.
I need names, OK?

I need—I need photographs
or something, OK?

I don't need
a history lesson.

I can't give you pictures

because I don't know
what they look like.

We did everything
at arm's length.

So you got nothing?

I've got Samir.

Well, does Samir have
any contact with them?

Minimal.

So how does he do it?

He can't. They initiate.

And otherwise?

He's waiting.

He's—He's waiting?

What the hell
is he waiting for?

More bodies?
More buildings?

We got a lot of buildings
out there.

Maybe he's waiting to blow up
a few more of them.

Hey, look, I know
how you must feel.

Hey, look, you don't
know how I feel.

I lost friends
of mine tonight.

You don't know how I feel!

They'll make contact soon.

When? That's what I want
to know—When?

Why soon?
Why not now?

What is the trade craft?
What are the visuals?

What are the iron sights?

You know, all that
CIA spy shit.

All right, I'll tell you
what I'm going to do.

I'm going to take
your boy Samir downtown,

I'm going to strap his ass
to a polygraph machine,

and I'm going to ask him
questions about you.

Then I'm going to take
those transcripts—

I'm going to take them
to a friend of mine

at the New York Times

who just loves
to write stories

about the link between the CIA
and political horror shows.

Ifyou burn him, you'll lose
any chance you've got.

So what?

It's lose-lose,
isn't that what you said?

I'm not fucking with you.

How could you possibly
remember who you're fucking?

- 24 hours.
- For what?

24 hours for what, Sharon?

Elise.

Have anything for me?

Man:
Nothing new.

Man: Now, we've got
3 bombings in New York City.

We've got 600 people dead.

The NYPD, the FBI,
they don't seem up to it.

Do we need to bring the army
into this, Arianna?

Absolutely. How many
people have to die

before we do
bring the army...

U.S. government troops
are not trained

to police their own population.

That's why we have an FBI.

That's why we have
a police force.

No. You see—

We don't want
an occupying army

in Brooklyn.

I would imagine
you would have to speak

to the army
to verify those rumors.

Arianna:
And here we have the FBI

having failed to do theirjob,

having failed...

Devereaux:
This is an attack.

This is a time of war.

The fact that
it's inside our borders

only means that
it's a new kind of war.

Man:
This is the kind of shit

these towel heads
do in their own country,

and now they're
bringing it here.

Man: People must understand
that the word "Arab"

is not synonymous with
the word "terrorist."

Islam is a religion of peace.

These people defile
the Holy Koran when they use...

Man: You know there's a lot
of pent-up frustration...

Reporter:
A merchant, Abdul Hassam,

was beaten today and
his store vandalized.

Reporter: The president
released a statement today—

"One of our greatest freedoms

is the freedom from fear,"

and he pledged to protect
that freedom

with all the resources...

The FBI has
received another fax.

Ahmed Bin Talal.

Apparently, they're still
under the impression

that we have him.

Do we...

have him?

Let me give you
a little advice, Steve.

Do not come between me
and the president.

I am speaking
for the president.

As far as the president
is concerned,

no, we do not have him.

General, did you know
that after yesterday's attack

half the parents
in this country

kept their kids out of school?

They're attacking
our way of life.

It ends now.

Are you saying
the president is prepared

to take the necessary steps?

I am saying

the president

is prepared to be

presidential.

[Telephone Rings]

[Ring]

Hello.

Sharon:
It's me. Turn on the TV.

Hang on.

Female Reporter: The senate
remained in emergency session

late into the night

debating the president's
call for martial law.

We have, in this country,

a tradition of invoking
martial law...

Yeah, I got it.

only when the most dire
of circumstances

require it,

but at what cost?

All eyes now turn
to New York City

to see if martial law
will bring the terror to an end.

Man: Move it!

[Whistle Blows]

Good morning.

Today, with the invocation
of the War Powers Act

by the president,

I am declaring
a state of martial law

on this city.

To the best
of our knowledge,

we are opposed by no more
than 20 of the enemy.

He is hiding
among a population

of roughly 2 million.

Intelligence tells us

that he is most likely
Arab-speaking,

between the age
of 14 and 30—

Narrowing the target
to 15,000 suspects.

We can further
reduce that number

down to those that have
been in this country

less than 6 months.

Now you have 20
hiding among 2,000.

Ifyou are one of these
20 young men,

you can hide
among a population

of similar
ethnic background.

Unfortunately for you,
you can only hide there,

and that population,

in the classic
immigration pattern,

is concentrated

right here in Brooklyn.

We intend to seal off
this borough,

then we intend to squeeze it.

This is the land
of opportunity, gentlemen—

The opportunity
to turn yourselves in.

After sundown tonight,

any young man fitting
the profile I described

who is not cooperating

will be arrested and detained.

There is historically
nothing more corrosive

to the morale of a population

than policing its own citizens,

but the enemy would be
sadly mistaken

if they were to doubt
our resolve.

They are now face-to-face

with the most fearsome
military machine

in the history of man,

and I intend to use it

and be back on base
in time for the play-offs.

Thank you for your time.

[Man Shouting]

Good to see you again, H ub.

Can't say the same thing
about you, General—

Not like this,
not in that uniform.

I thought
you were against this.

I am against this.
This was not my call.

So you're just
following orders, huh?

The president made you put
tanks on the Brooklyn Bridge?

Are you questioning
my patriotism?

I'm questioning yourjudgment.

Man On Radio:
Negative, command.

I'm here serving
my president

and quite possibly
not in the best interest

of our nation.

My profession
does not allow me

to make that kind
of distinction.

I won't question
your patriotism,

but don't you ever again
question my command.

Do you understand me?

I'm not under your command.

You really believe that, Hub?

Take a look around
and tell me that's true.

[Helicopter]

Arrogant prick.

You ever met anybody so in love

with the sound
of his own voice?

We're putting Samir into play.

Now? With all this
going on? He'll freak.

Yeah, he'll freak.
I'm already freaked.

The whole damn city's freaked.

Oh, fuck it—One more lamb
to the slaughter.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

It's fine. He's cool.

What's he fucking
doing here?

Hey, do you know what's
happened outside?

They're killing Arabs out there.

You can put
a stop to it, Samir.

What are you talking about?
The army's here.

They're setting up
interrogation centers

right now.

They're torturing people
in cellars.

Calm down, all right?

I got to get out of here,

and you have to help me.

We'll help you.

I—I just need more money.

OK.

You got a student visa
for Ali Waziri.

I told you. I know
nobody of that name.

Liar!

U hh!

Tell him what he wants
to know! He knows!

She's fucking crazy!

You don't know
who they really are!

Shut up!
Stop simpering.

Look, I've got a picture
of the two of us, Samir.

You remember that picture?

Well, I'm going to post it

in every shop in Brooklyn,

and then I'm going
to send copies

to some friends of mine
in the West Bank.

Your mother's still there, isn't she?

All right, all right!

Fucking let go of me!

All right, get out of here.

Get out!

I'm sorry.

Hey, nobody's going
to burn you, OK, Samir?

Nobody's going
to call anybody.

- Who asked you to get the visa?
- Oh, come on.

Hey, hey, Samir,

just calm down, OK?

I'm telling you, there's
nothing to be afraid of.

I'm afraid of going to hell.

Me, too.

[Sniffles]

His name is Tariq Husseini.

He runs a auto shop
on Commerce Street

in Red Hook.

Commerce Street.

Red Hook.

H ubbard:
If anybody bothers you—

Anybody—

You call me.

Man Over P.A.:
This is for your own security.

Do not be alarmed.

Got it.

You're good.

Yeah, you're not so bad yourself.

Hey, Floyd. Yeah. H ub.

Listen, we got to put
something together

in a hurry, all right?

Yeah. Where's Frank?

All right, well,
give him a 911, OK?

And get a beat-up
car for him.

[Man Talking Over P.A.]

Yeah, well, beat it up
yourself ifyou have to.

896 Commerce Street—
It's a garage in Red Hook.

Man Over P.A.:
Do not be alarmed.

[Crowd Yelling]

Sharon: Oh, shit,

they're going
house-to-house.

You know, Tariq
will go underground.

We're going to hit him
in less than an hour.

Well, hit him hard.

[Yelling]

Where are you going?

I'm going to go stash Samir
someplace safe.

All right, I make out 3 inside.

The 2 guys by
the trash barrel are ours,

and they're going to wait
until we're set.

Then they're going
to come in after us.

OK.

All right, let's roll.

Yo.

Hey, guy.

Yo, I'm looking for Tariq.
Anybody know Tariq?

He's supposed to be
fixing my shit here.

Huh?

I got that card here somewhere.

He gave me this paper-

Tariq Hossidy or
something like that?

Yeah, yeah.
He's back there.

- Back there?
- Yeah.

All right, man. Thanks.

[Knocks]
Hey, Tariq!

Are you Tariq H usseini?

- He's not here.
- He's not here?

[Speaking Arabic]

Can I leave
a message for him?

Of course.

Tell him the FBI is after him.

Ha! You're joking.

I'm not joking.

Put the phone down.
Put your hands up.

Freeze! Hands in the air!

OK.

Interlock them behind your head.

[Speaking Arabic]

Yeah, right. Same to you, too.

Everything's going to be all right.

[Helicopter]

Man Over P.A.:
Tariq Husseini,

this is
the United States Army.

You are surrounded.

You have 30 seconds
to throw out any weapons

and exit the premises

with your hands
on top ofyour head.

I repeat—

Freeze!

Freeze, God damn it!

God damn it.
Code red. Code red.

Pilot:
Leader, we are locked on target.

Request permission to fire.

Yes! Now!

Man: Freeze!

- Drop it!
- Hold it.

I'm FBI.

Put the gun down,
motherfucker!

H ubbard:
All right, all right. I'm FBI.

I'm FBI. J ust relax. I'm FBI.

Get down on your knees,
would you, man?

I'm FBI!

[Yelling]

Ladies and gentlemen,
there'll be a—

Who was that?

Ladies and gentlemen...

there will be a full briefing

for all journalists.

[People Yelling]

[Helicopter]

Man Over P.A.:
Do not be alarmed.

[Chattering]

Frank: Frankie!

Frankie Haddad!

Frank Haddad!

- Frank!
- Hub. H ub.

- They got Frankie.
- What?

My kid's in here.
My kid's in here someplace.

He's only 13.

All right, we'll get him out.
We'll find him.

Frank, we'll get him out.

Frank Haddad!

- We'll get him out.
- Out?

They came into my house!

My wife told them
who I was!

How many times did I
put it on the line, Hub?

How many times?

20 years,
we're American citizens,

10 years in the bureau!

They knocked her down.

They took him
out of my house!

Frank Haddad!

Listen to me!
Listen to me!

Frank!

It—

It's wrong.

We'll find him.

All right? We'll find him.

All right.

Come on.

No. No!

I'll find him.

Besides...

this is where I belong.

Here.

Tell them I'm not
their sand nigger anymore.

[Mispronounces]
You say his name is Haddad?

No. His name is Haddad,
Frank Haddad.

H-A-D-D-A-D. Junior.

His father's a Shiite.
We're checking him out.

His father is a federal agent.

His father happens
to be my partner.

Don't get in my face, Hubbard.

I just might decide
you're an Ethiopian.

You know, you are stupid enough

to think that that's an insult.

If a mistake's
been made, we'll fix it.

What do you mean,
if a mistake's been made?

There's no mistake.
I'm vouching for the kid.

I want him out.

Why don't you get your
priorities straight?

I said we'll look into it.

Yeah, you'll look into it—

J ust like you've been
looking into me, right?

Surveilling me?

You think I'm stupid?

You think I don't know
what's going on?

I'm doing yourjob for you,

and I damn near get my head
blown off for it.

Now I want FrankJr. out,

and I want to see
my prisoner Tariq Husseini.

Let's go see your prisoner.

[Speaking Arabic]

Tariq.

Tariq...

[Speaking Arabic]

[Spits]

How long
have you been at him?

Not long enough, apparently.

How much longer,
do you think,

before he gives up
the other cells?

He can't give up
the other cells

if he doesn't know
where they are.

He knows.

No, he doesn't.

You said it yourself,
Sharon, didn't you?

In the strategy meeting,
the briefing—

The one cell doesn't know

where the other one is, right?

How long before
he breaks, Sharon?

Well, at this rate, too long.

The theater was hit

9 hours after we took
down the first cell.

So...

what other models
do we have?

Shake him?

- What about it, Sharon?
- Won't work.

It works for the Israelis.

Only in conjunction
with sleep deprivation.

It takes at least 36 hours.

We don't have 36 hours.

Electric shock?

The neurotransmitters
just shut down.

- Water?
- Palestinian authorities...

producing good intel
with water.

Of course, there's cutting.

[Praying In Arabic]

It's extremely messy.

[Praying In Arabic]

Are you people insane?

What are you
talking about?

The time has come
for one man to suffer

in order to save
hundreds of lives.

One man?

What about 2, huh?
What about 6?

How about
public executions, huh?

You're free to leave
whenever you like.

Come on, General.
You lost men. I've lost men,

but you-you can't do this.

What if what
they really want—

What if they don't even
want the sheik?

Have you considered that?

Huh?

What if
what they really want

is for us to herd children
into stadiums

like we're doing?

And put soldiers
on the street

and—and have Americans
looking over their shoulders?

Bend the law,

shred the constitution
just a little bit?

Because if we
torture him, General...

we do that,

and everything
that we have bled

and fought and died for

is over,

and they've won.

They've already won.

Escort him out.

Tariq: Aah!

He knew nothing.

Aah!

[Gunshot]

[Man Singing In Arabic]

H ubbard:
You got to call off the dogs.

Steve:
We can't call off the army

until the threat is gone.

The army is the threat.

They're the ones
out of control.

Devereaux's killing
innocent people.

You guys took the leash
off of him.

Just put it back on him.

Are you wearing a wire?

Are you?

It was Devereaux

who took the sheik
in the first place.

Devereaux?

So we do have him?

What do you think, Hub?

Our government operates
as one coherent entity?

Everybody, you and me,

we all wanted that
sheik's head on a plate.

Devereaux didn't start
this agenda

about hunting down terrorists.

He's just kind of
pushed it a little bit.

[Man Speaking
In Arabic Over P.A.]

Hang on a sec.

So, now what do we do?

There is this growing feeling
in certain circles

that we ought to just
let the sheik go—

Set him free.

I mean, after all,
we kidnapped him.

We kept him in isolation.

A judge might let him walk.

You don't let
a murderer go free—

Any murderer.

Any murderer!

Sharon thinks we can
get to the last cell

if they believe we're going
to release the sheik.

Why should they trust her?

I mean, why should I trust her?

Ask her.

I ran the network
in I raq for 2 years.

Samir recruited them

from among the sheik's
followers,

and I trained them
in the north.

The sheik was going
to help us overthrow Saddam.

I mean, he was our ally.

We were financing him.

And then...

then there was a policy shift.

It's not like we
sold them out exactly.

We just stopped helping them.

They were slaughtered.

So I quit the operation.

I took another assignment.

But you helped them first.

What do you mean?

You said they were
being slaughtered.

They needed to get out.

They were on the terrorist watch list,

so you got them visas,
you and Samir.

I promised them we would
take care of them.

They were working for us.

Doing what exactly?

I told you.

No, you didn't.

You told me
that you trained them—

Trade craft, subversion.

That's what you said, wasn't it?

You're leaving something out,
aren't you, Sharon?

You taught them...

how to make bombs.

That's why you were looking

for the wiring signatures
on that blue bus.

And now they're here...

doing what you
taught them how to do.

Right?

You've got to let me

make this right.

Please?

Man: The president
is in close conference

with the mayor of New York,

the governor of New York,

and the attorney general
of New York,

and I can assure you...

Man:
...putting them in a stadium

as we did with the Japanese.

Man: This is the time
for all of us to proclaim

our brotherhood
with these people.

The Jewish community
opposes the military

to take back in a peaceful
fashion our democracy

from the people...

Woman:
The people of Brooklyn

will not be held hostage!

Join community
and religious leaders

in a march to protest...

Man: Well, what if it was
black people, huh?

What if it was Italians?

Puerto Ricans?

Female Reporter:
American Arabs are a vulnerable,

visible population,

and they have no power.

Critics say this is
a racist decision,

and the government
would not dare do this

to any other-

[Turns Off TV]

Samir's made contact, Frank.

It's the last cell.

He set up a meeting,

but we got to get the army
off our tail.

I need your help, Frank.

Frank, it's still our watch.

I don't want to see
another dead body,

and I know you don't.

And when this is over,
I promise you—

We'll get your boy back.

[Crowd Shouting]

Woman:
March on city hall today!

No fear!

What time you got, Frank?

Just 10: 15.

How's he doing?

You should just tell me
the message,

and I will pass it on.

I need to deliver it myself.

Believe me,

they're gonna want to
hear what I have to say.

Woman: No fear!

Let's show them
we're not afraid!

Sure he's gonna
go through with this?

Well, if he doesn't,

he knows I'll give him
to Devereaux.

So...

You know,
this is the end game,

you understand?

If this goes wrong...

Nothing's gonna go wrong.

We're the CIA.

Something always goes wrong.

Well...

if things get hairy, uh...

just remember,
the most committed wins.

Let's go.

The 3 ofyou really do
make a lovely couple.

Sharon, I beg you,

do not make me do this.

If they even...

If they even dream
we've been followed,

they will kill us.

South on Cadman Plaza.

Sharon:
Relax, all right?

Col. Hardwick:
General Devereaux,

it appears the feds are
in motion. Do you copy?

Right. J ust stay with Hubbard.

The man is definitely
not on our team.

Col. Hardwick: Roger that.

Airborne, he's all yours.

Helicopter Pilot:
This is Airborne.

We got him.

Soundgarden's ready.

Hey, wait a minute.

This is not the way
to the bathhouse.

You said to get a key
from my uncle.

Stop whining.
You'll cue the surveillance.

Hey...

I have a bad feeling here.

Just relax.

Keep your head down.

[Helicopter]

We ready?

All set.

We got to hurry, Sharon.

We can't be late.

Here we go.

Pilot:
All units, all units.

Subject is on foot.

Pilot: All units, he is running
to First and Pearl.

Man On P.A.:
This is the U.S. Army. Halt!

Freeze!

We're all clear.

All right, let's do it.

Why are we stopping, Sharon?
We've got to go.

Just calm down.
Everything's gonna be fine.

[Turns On TV]

Look we just have to
sit tight for 3 minutes.

Can you just do
that much for me?

I don't believe it.
Look at this.

[People Shouting On TV]

Arab and Jew, side by side.

Black and white.

Christian and Muslim.

What?

It's so tragic.

What? What's tragic?

What do you mean?
Are they gonna hit the march?

Can you imagine
a better target?

Because our government
has no right...

[Crowd Cheering]

to declare martial law.

[Cheering]

No fear!

We've got to hurry, Sharon.

Put this on.

Oh, shoot.

It's 11:00.
We gotta get out of here.

They're getting
ready to move.

Units 1 and 2 on my signal.

Units 3 and 4, stand by.

Units 5 and 6...

FBI!

Ohh.

Microwave.

This is an unlawful disturbance!

You must disperse!

I repeat!

These soldiers carry
live ammunition!

This is your final warning!

I repeat!

These soldiers carry
live ammunition!

[Keystrokes]

[Computer Beeping]

Hub...

we missed him.

The bathhouse.

So what's going on?

Why aren't they here?

They'll be here.

Don't worry.

[Whispering In Arabic]

What are you doing?

What message
do you have for them?

There's no one else coming,
is there?

[Chuckles]

So...

what message do you have
for me, Sharon?

You're the last cell.

There will never be
a last cell!

It's just the beginning.

[Crowd Chanting "No Fear!"]

Frank:
Move out of the way!

Move over! Move over!

How could I have
missed the play?

It's because of the money.

You believe money is power.

Belief is power .

J ust don't tell me
we financed your operation.

[Chuckles]

The world is a wheel, Sharon.

Samir...

the Koran preaches...

Do not speak to me
of the Koran, woman!

First you left me there in Iraq

like a piece of shit!

And then you take
our leader, a holy man—

You put him in prison

for preaching
the word of God!

So now you have to learn
the consequences

of trying to tell to
the world how to live.

It's over.

Your point's been made.

Why shed more blood?

[Crowd Chanting Outside]

Those poor people out there.

They're fucking marching
for your cause.

Yeah...

and they, too,
will become its martyrs.

Hubbard: Samir.

Let her go, Samir.

Move away
from the door.

Don't! He's got a bomb!

Get up. Get up!

Get up!

No!

Samir, let her go,
and you'll live.

I said move away
from this fucking door!

Don't!

Samir...

Hub, I'm here.

No shots, Frank.
No shots.

Samir...

Do you want to die?

Do you?

Look, I'll blow it!

Then we all die.
Nobody's leaving here.

Move away from
this fucking door!

- Shoot!
- Shut up!

- Shoot me!
- Shut up!

Shoot!

Kill him! Shoot!

I'm coming!

Shoot!

[Opens Radio Channel]

One of ours down.
Stomach wound.

Get here now.

Here.

Is he dead?

Hub?

I'm right here.
I'm right here.

[Groans]

I'm right here. Shh.

I'm sorry.

It's OK.

[Groans]

You're OK.

I'm cold.

OK.

[Groans]

[Crying]

Shh, shh.

You're OK.

Ohh...

Just relax.

as we forgive..."

"Those who trespassed

"And lead us..."

"Lead us not

from evil..."

[Crying]

"For thine is the kingdom..."

[Speaking Arabic]

No fear!

Agent Hubbard,

would you mind
explaining to me

why you detained
Colonel Hardwick

and 6 of my C.I.D. staff?

The last cell
was taken down.

It was Samir.
We took him out.

How can you be sure it's
the last of the cells?

- Sharon.
- Sharon's been compromised.

Sharon is dead.

She gave her life.

Sorry.

It's all over with, General.

What's all over with?

The sheik.

Is that so?

Clear violation
of international law.

Hmm?

Congressional oversights,

couple of statutes, treaties.

Kidnapping, perjury, Logan Act.

Conducting your own
personal foreign policy.

I know the whole story.

You don't know shit.

Poor suffering Sharon

and her poor
suffering people.

I did what was necessary,

and I won't apologize for it.

Go fuck yourself, bureau.

I serve my country.

Why don't you try
serving yours?

You have anything else,
Agent Hubbard?

Yeah.

One more thing.

This is a writ from
the U.S. District Court

ordering the release

of all persons being held
in this stadium.

My authority overrules the court's.

Your authority ends now, General.

William Devereaux,
you are under arrest...

for the torture and murder
of Tariq H usseini...

an American citizen.

FBI, freeze!

Freeze! Nobody move!

Hold it!

Don't move!

Don't move!
Put your guns down!

Is this some kind
of a joke?

Do you see me laughing, General?

Captain.

Don't!

Order your men to lower
their weapons, Hubbard.

Can't do that, General.

Do it now.

The law states—

I am the law!

Right here, right now!
I am the law!

You have the right
to remain silent.

Order them to lower
their weapons!

You have the right
to a fair trial.

You have the right
not to be tortured,

not to be murdered,

rights that you took away
from Tariq H usseini!

You have those rights

because of the men
that came before you

who wore that uniform.

Because of
the men and women

that are here waiting
for the order to fire.

Give them the order, General.

Do you think that I would
hesitate to kill you

or every other federal agent
in this room

if it was in the best
interests of my country?

No, no, no.

You wouldn't hesitate.
I know that.

But they might.

Give the order.

Make murderers
out of these young kids.

Give the order.

Give them the order, General!

Stand down, Sergeant.

Woman:
General Devereaux,

would you care to
comment on the charges?
