Original subtitles

[narrator] Previously on Nova Vita.

[judge] In light of the other charges,

I'm going to set bail at ten million dollars.

[West] The only way to find outis if we bail Dave out of jail.

I don't think Dave Harper is who we think is.

[Nixon] Jessica posted his bail.

And you were supposed to control her.

[phone ringing]

[Nixon] Hi, Dave.

You can say hi to Agent West for me, too.

Marina was struck by a drunk driver last night.

[Dave]Marina grilled me the other night.

[West] What'd she wanna know?

[Dave] I knew it.I knew they were watching me.

At least I had a pretty good idea.

That's why I-- I didn't take my phone...

to Jessica's house.

Just watch it. I can't believe it.

CM Partners hit a bit of a rough patch

a few months back. Sore subject?

[Carter] No, just--I was personally blindsided...

- Carter. - ...by what my partner did.

Your partner's your best friend,

you just inherently trust them.

- [Devon] Can you believe it? - [Carter]I guess that was my--

That was my biggest mistake.

[Nixon] Do you know this man?

[West] Took a picture with my security camera.

Anthony Nixon, ex-special forces, United States.

[Armen] Mark did mention one thing

about a safe at his house.

I need to know where Mark kept his safe.

[Carter] Look at me.

I need to find the safe.

That's what I need.

Mark never had a safe.

[Adam] These people operate out in the open.

They cover their asses. You will never find them.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

[groaning]

[siren chirps]

Drop down to your knees, sir.

[Dover] Three days ago you had this guy arrested.

- We made a mistake. - [Dover] We? No, you.

Just off the top of my head

you violated maybe ten FBI regulations.

[Marina] Jessica, you don't know me,

but I know your husband, Mark.

They recorded a video on this thumb drive.

Watch it... alone.

[gasps]

[gunshot]

- [patrons screaming] - [winces]

Where's the drive now?

I don't know, they didn't tell me.

I don't know. I don't know where it is.

[gunshot]

[Nixon] It's just a matter of time now.

[Simmons] Move it along.

Once Dave is back in custody,

I want to back trace everything.

The guys are ready to go.

Anything else?

Adam mentioned there might be a thumb drive.

Might be something on it.

Where is it now?

Couldn't tell me.

And if the FBI had it we'd know about it.

What about Mrs. Davis?

The watch guy did mention a safe.

- It could be in there. - Have Chinzano sweep the house.

That's easier said than done.

Construction guys coming and going.

Plus, the father never leaves the damn house anymore.

Get creative. Figure it out.

Nixon, I don't want any blowback on this.

Hey.

Your name is Mark Davis,

and I'm here to tell you

about your old life, so listen carefully.

I know this is gonna sound...unbelievable,

but I need you to keep an open mind.

Something happened to your life, your real one.

We had to take these drastic steps.

We didn't wanna do it.

But it was the only way.

We had to disappear.

You aren't whoever they told you.

You are actually me.

Apparently, they will change your hair,

our face, our voice, everything.

Complete plastic surgery.

They told you that there was an accident

when you woke up, right?

I had one, too.

Mark Davis had to die,

and probably in some way where there was no body.

You search for me, and you're gonna see it.

Now, the reason why you can't remember anything

is because they erased your memory.

OK, it was part of an insurance plan,

so you wouldn't go back to your old life.

Uh, this woman...

Her name's Jessica.

And she's your wife.

The whole family's gonna blow back on her, so...

You did what you had to do.

It was the only way to keep her out of prison.

[line trilling]

[phone ringing]

Yeah?

West...

Where's my husband?

He's right here.

I heard Dave Harper bribed you to work on your crew.

That's bullshit.

I get it.

Leukemia can be really hard to deal with,

and real drain on the pocket book, too.

Who the hell are you?

Consider me... a friend.

Well, get the hell out of my sight

before I do something that you'll regret.

Hear me out first.

I'm gonna make you an offer you are not gonna refuse.

What offer?

The people I work for...

they can cure your son.

No more cancer.

That's bullshit.

Are you sure of that?

'Cause today could just be your lucky day.

I'm sorry.

[crying]

I'm so sorry.

It's OK.

Whatever we have to do, if we have to run,

whatever it is, we'll figure it out.

I don't remember everything.

I know.

I promise you I will.

I know.

Thank you.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news,

but we only have 48 hours.

[Dover] You don't go home I'm gonna have to start charging you rent.

Can't go home. Marge kicked me out.

Again?

[sighs]

When?

A couple weeks ago.

I didn't say anything.

Same old, same old.

You know the deal.

Being married to a fed, blah-blah-blah.

Well, we don't make the best husbands.

[sighs] Or partners, right?

I couldn't sleep.

Figured I'd look over some of West's files.

Well, that's a good friend.

I don't know about that.

[chuckles] Take a peek at that.

Giving me more work on my day off.

Dave Harper is now wanted for murder.

- Who'd he kill? - Some guy named Adam Jones.

Harper left his prints all over the scene.

- How convenient. - Mm-hm.

Adam's the name this guy Harper was calling his fake friend.

Apparently, he had a serious axe to grind.

[gunshot]

What about the wife?

The one he hit?

I think it says there, her name is Marina.

Right. Can we talk to her?

He says he never touched her.

[chuckles]

Every asshole who hits a woman says that.

You know something...

Agent West was right.

Well, you've never said that about him before.

So, I'll bite. What's up?

You and I have been doing this a very long time.

It seems a little too neat, don't you think?

I mean, if you look at all the evidence,

either this guy's a total idiot, or he's being set up.

Now you know why I'm here this late.

You talked to Marge.

You know, I wasn't always a desk jockey.

You go help your friend.

Give me a good reason to give him his job back.

- You got it. - Hey, Smith.

Don't screw it up.

Thank you.

Hey.

You're OK.

OK?

You're here, and I-- I can't believe you're sitting here.

You're right.

It just feels like a...

Feels like a nightmare I can't wake up from.

We still don't have enough to prove you're innocent.

We can't just hide here. We gotta do something.

I mean, what if we take the video to the police or the FBI or something?

I'm telling you, it's not enough.

- What if we compare Mark's DNA? - Against what?

He doesn't exist in any system as Mark Davis, just Dave Harper.

Well, I don't know. We've gotta--

There's gotta be something that we can do.

I mean, I'm not gonna just sit here and let them get away with this.

Dave, you wanna give us your idea?

Mark, honey. Come on.

Mark?

Honey, what are you thinking?

[Carter]You need to think about this in a larger way, Mark.

[Mark] What way is that, Carter?

What's that, in an AUREO way?

[Carter] AUREO was for us.

The safe.

There's something-- There's something in that safe that can help us.

You called this meeting. Here I am.

We need to eliminate one of our own.

- Who? - Carter Hayes.

He stuck his neck out too far.

He can't come back from this.

- Our exposure? - Minimal.

- Steps have been taken - [Xavier]And Dave Harper?

[Simmons]Unfortunately, he's a part of this.

Why hasn't he been handled?

We needed approval to eliminate all our assets.

He's turned out to be more of a problem than we anticipated.

And our exposure with him?

Again, he knows nothing.

[Xavier] If that were true,

you wouldn't besitting there right now.

I can assure you he will be dealt with.

Alright, you have my approval.

Make sure it's taken care of immediately.

Nixon, no chances this time.

I want this done neatly.

Way ahead of you.

I don't have the code.

You never gave it to me.

Why? Why wouldn't I?

[Jessica] I think you were trying to protect us.

[West] Where else might you keep code?

Somewhere here? Maybe somewhere at the office?

And Mark told me that he kept confidential company files in his safe...

somewhere in the house.

[Jessica] Carter asked about the safe.

He said there was something in it

that would keep the company out of trouble.

Carter.

- What the hell's going on?! - Hey, hey, Devon!

Put it down, we're not doing this again, Devon, please.

- Daddy-- - I told you I'd shoot him if I saw him again!

Please...

Agent West.

Please, put your gun down.

Someone better start talking.

Baby... Let me talk, OK.

Daddy, I know this sounds so crazy...

but this is Mark.

You have to believe me, I swear.

I know it for a fact.

Sweetie, listen to yourself.

- Get-- - Devon, Devon!

- Please, no, Dad. Please. - Devon, please.

- I know. - OK, listen to me.

There are people out there who stole my life from me.

- Carter was one of them. - [phone ringing]

- Yeah. - [Nixon over phone] You still there?

- Yes, sir. - Everybody else?

They're all here, sir.

- The safe? - I haven't found it yet.

But, maybe in the office, but they're in there.

I don't wanna believe you.

But I believe my daughter.

Thank you.

Now carry on.

[West] Now that's done, we really don't have time for this.

- We need to find that code. - [Dave] OK, I'll go to the office.

It's gotta be there.

[Nixon] Take care of them.

You have a green light.

I have help pulling up now.

I saw a file that I-I didn't have time to grab.

- I'm gonna go with you. - No, no, no, no.

I'm not risking you getting hurt.

- I'm not letting you go by yourself. - Jessica--

You need to understand you're not Mark Davis.

You're Dave Harper.

I'm part owner of the company.

They're not gonna let you in, they will let me in.

[Devon] She's right.

Fuck me.

Oh, that's Bicks. He works for us.

You sure about that?

He's got a gun.

That son of a bitch.

- [gunfire] - [Jessica screams]

Stay down. Stay down!

- You OK? - [muttering]

Stay down!

OK.

[panting]

Jess, do you know where that door to the hill is?

- Yeah. - Alright, I'll take care of Bicks.

I want you two to go there,

and when you get there, you just keep running

No, no, no, sir, I can't let you do that.

- Listen to me-- - This has nothing to do with you.

[Devon] You promise to take care of my girl,

you hear me?

[Jessica] Dad...

[message alert]

I need Tactical and LAPD at the Davis mansion, right now!

I need you to take care of that son, too.

- Dad, no. - Go!

- Daddy please...

Now! I said, go! Now!

- Don't make me - - [Devon] Go!

Get some guys down there now!

I'm en route.

[Gunshot]

[gunfire continues]

[gunfire continues]

You ain't got a shot, bitch!

[gunfire continues]

Detective Stevens, Agent Smith.

How can I help you?

I heard you might have some info

about the location of a Marina Harper.

Well, yeah. I mean, I saw a few days ago.

She, uh...

She filed a restraining order against her husband.

- Hm. - Here you go.

Says here you never filed the final order of protection.

Sandy, let me have that one folder, please.

We just got this.

It says that she was killed by a drunk driver.

First, her husband beats on her, and then this.

Bad luck.

Yeah, bad luck.

Guy goes out on bail and commits murder.

Doesn't add up, does it? Good luck.

No, it doesn't.

[radio chatter indistinct]

[Gunshot]

Why, Bicks?!

They made me do it!

It's the only way I can save my son!

Well, this is the only way to save my family!

[groans]

[men yelling indistinct]

[man] Don't move!

I'm sorry.

Go, up. Let's go, move.

[elevator dings]

[phone ringing]

Yeah?

- Hey, are you at the-- - [message alert]

Hang on one second.

- Shit. - What's going on?

Don't go in there. There's another warrant out of your arrest.

For what this time?

[West]Adam Jones, they found him dead.

- They killed him, too? - Turn off your phone's locator.

- Don't make any other calls. - OK.

Now get in, get out, then comestraight to the safe house.

You know where I mean. Don't give anyone the address.

They might be listening right now.

I do. Are you sure about that though?

[West]They would never suspect you.

[Dave] Where are you headed?

I'm gonna go pick a fight.

What did he say?

That I'm wanted for murder.

[sighs]

[man] Hey!

Can I help you?

Um, I'm Jessica Davis.

I'm here to clean out my husband's office.

I'm sorry about your loss, Mrs. Davis.

They already boxed up his stuff a while back.

I know.

This is the first chance I've had to get down here.

And you are?

- Um... - That's my assistant.

Yes, ma'am. Go ahead.

Thank you.

[line trilling]

- [West] Yeah? - Hey.

I'm guessing you heard about Dave's bolo by now.

Look, before you get crazy on me, just let me explain.

Listen to me, you were right, OK.

Everything's just a little bit too neat.

Say that again.

No. Seriously, now,

what's the next step?

I think I know where you can find another body.

OK.

[beep]

[Dave] I tried the computer.

There's a password.

I know.

- [indistinct chatter] - [phone buzzing]

I found some files that I think we can use,

but they're in one of these boxes.

There it is.

[tires screech]

- [Jessica] Is that it? - Yeah, that's one of them.

Carter started Image Strategies without me.

But I had to sign off on the expenses.

Twenty million in payroll?

[Carter]Now, we're talking about $250 million deal.

And if it does,

we're gonna be so far away

from all this at that point.

Whoa.

I remember now.

He was growing the company so fast.

- [elevator dings] - Mr. Hayes, I wasn't expecting you.

Are you here to see Mrs. Davis?

What did you just say?

She came by to grab some of her husband's things.

- Is she here still? - Yes, sir.

- Where? Where is she? - She's in the office.

Call security. We may have a breach.

[alarm blaring]

[radio chatter indistinct]

[Dave] Go to the neighbors and call Agent West.

- He'll know what to do. - [Jessica] I'm not letting you go in there by yourself.

[Dave] Jessica, we can't risk you getting involved in this.

Please, go.

[elevator dings]

[man] He's going upstairs!

[police sirens blaring]

West. Where are you?

[Carter] Hey!

Mark.

Search this floor.

Go on, now.

You wanna tell me what you actually know?

Why?

Are you afraid I'm gonna take you all down?

[chuckles]

[laughs]

Is that-- Is that what you really think?

Huh?

You realize you did this to your best friend, right?

No.

- You set me up. - No.

Lawyers, the court.

- No. No, no, no. - Surgery.

[scoffs]

- A new life. - I didn't do that, that wasn't me.

That was them.

Because you simply wouldn't stay away.

So why'd they need you then?

Because they needed AUREO.

Why did you lie to me?

Why are you still lying?

Let me tell you something, Mark.

They wanted to kill you, and I wouldn't let them.

I'm the reason you're still alive.

You understand that?

And Jess.

Am I supposed to say thank you now?

You're the fucking reason to all of this.

No, I'm not.

- No? - No.

You did this to yourself.

You did.

You wouldn't stop asking questions.

You wouldn't just stay the fuck away.

- You're in denial. - [scoffs]

You don't take responsibility, do you?

I didn't do anything.

You didn't do anything.

[guard] Just say the word, sir.

You had everything before, Mark.

And I made sure you had it all again.

Does this look like everything to you?

- Why? - Because it was either me...

or you. That's why.

That is the truth.

So run.

Go ahead.

Keep running, Dave.

Run from me.

Run from yourself.

Go.

Go on.

[Nixon] Agent West.

Where you coming from? Adam's place?

- Who? - The man you murdered.

See, I couldn't quite figure it out last night,

then Dave got the drop on the banger.

Dave was in a fight?

Not really much of one.

He was able to wrestle a nine-millimeter

out of one of the banger's hands.

I was so proud.

And then the call came through on the radio.

Mr. Harper's wanted for murder.

Yeah, Dave's had trouble with the law.

As have you, apparently.

You're not as slick as you think.

You're no longer an FBI agent

so measure your words carefully, Mr. West.

Are you afraid?

Is that why you sent them after us?

Are you trying to bait me into something?

[clicks tongue] Not gonna work.

It's guys like you.

- Like me what? - Soldiers of fortune.

Talk a big game, but rarely do you ever see them

actually do anything.

You might be a tough guy

when you've got ten people on your side

charging some tiny village where they got old ass AK-47s

- to defend their homes. - You're pathetic.

I'm not the one backing down.

You wanna know a little secret about guys like me?

If you would want to hurt you--

Guys like me? Former FBI agents with nothing else to lose?

We got all the time in the world on our hands.

You're gonna be seeing a hell of a lot more of me.

Do I seem worried?

Do I?

The next time I see you

I hope you see me coming first.

Still?

Nothing from West?

His cell phone is still off, sir.

Uh-huh.

Well, you know him better than anybody.

What's his next move?

Carter Hayes.

Carter Hayes?

I just got a bolo on him.

Boss, who the hell are these people?

I don't think we wanna know.

[doorbell rings]

Mr. Hayes. I'm Special Agent Dover

from the Los Angeles division of FBI and the director.

I think you know my colleague, Agent West.

You have a warrant you want to show me to be here?

Oh, we just came to talk now.

Or we could come back with a warrant

and a tactical team.

They'd be a lot more aggressive.

It's up to you.

Good choice.

- Are we alone, sir? - Yes. Yes, we're alone.

Take it easy, just wanted to make sure there are no surprises.

No, no. No surprises.

You're-you're my only surprise today.

- [Dover chuckles] - So you want to tell me why you're here?

What you want?

Well, I won't lie to you 'cause you're in too deep.

I'm... [chuckles]

I'm-I'm in too deep. Is that so?

How-how do you figure that?

Well, we got money missing.

Like a lot of it.

But it's only money.

We've also got some people dead.

Now the Bureau can't, and I won't look the other way

when that happens, not ever.

Now, Agent West, he's... he's on to you.

He's like a dog with a bone.

He's not gonna stop till he buries you

and everybody else that's involved.

Yeah, well, he's crazy. He should check himself into a psych ward.

- I know, he gets that way sometimes. - Yeah, I'm sure he does.

[Dover] You know, I don't normally come out into the field

and make arrests or interviews.

Been awhile.

But I made an exception on your-- on your part.

What are you doing right now?

- Hm? - What is this?

I mean, don't-- What do you mean, what?

- Are you threatening me? - Would you like to file a complaint?

Call the cops? Talk to my boss?

Oh, that's right.

I'm the boss.

I didn't think so.

Now that tells me you're guilty.

West doesn't have enough on you yet, but he's very close.

- I'm gonna call my lawyer. - No, no. Hey, I didn't come out here to arrest you,

I just came out to talk with you.

Maybe have you come in the office, tell us what's really going on.

Maybe we could help you out a little bit.

We do that, Agent West doesn't have to come after you.

I think I'll pass, but thank you for the opportunity.

Mr. Hayes, when I walk out that door the deal walks with me.

Same answer.

OK.

[Dover] Well, West had this other crazy idea.

That you were working for this other company.

Supposedly, you know, a very powerful company.

You see, crazy. Even you just said it.

Yeah, well, you know, we raided their offices.

But they were gone.

Yeah, go ahead.

[Dover] Nothing, not even a stapler left.

For the record, the FBI raided my offices, too.

- Hm. - They took everything out.

So I don't-- I don't even understand--

What are you trying to say? Where are you going with this?

It doesn't scare you that they're just gone?

I mean, that could mean that to them you're expendable.

Have a good day.

Agent Dover.

OK.

Nice house.

OK.

I appreciate that, partner.

Yeah.

- Hey. - Hey.

- You OK? - Yeah.

- How's Devon? - He's in the hospital,

but still no update on his condition.

He's a tough man.

I was finally able to look over the files.

OK.

- And? - There's enough in there to take Carter down,

but that's where the trail ends.

The man belongs in jail.

He does.

There's so much more to this.

I mean, we're barely scratching the surface.

Whatever that is, and however we're gonna find it,

we need shelve it for now.

There's a lot of people out there looking for us.

So what we do, do we just hide?

I've been doing that for months. I-I can't.

There is another option.

[Jessica] What is it?

OK. I'll go to the island.

Hey, you know what? That might actually work.

You're a patient of theirs, they'll see you.

That's right.

They can't see you.

Either of you.

So you want to go alone?

I started this, there's no other choice.

- How are you gonna get there? - Our plane.

OK. You think you can take the plane?

Once you step foot on the plane, you become a felon.

There's gonna be a million eyes watching the airport.

This is the only play now.

Unless you have something else.

Yeah.

We're coming with you.

[Dave] I can get us in.

Let's go.
