How old is this hospital?
The cafeteria was carrying RC.

Remember we used to mix this shit
with Stoli?

Damn.

Man, it's been almost six fucking hours.

I know. It's gonna be longer than that
before we find out anything,

so get comfortable.

Hey, Isiah's gonna be good too.

I talked to the doctor.
They patching him up right now.

- He's gonna be smooth, a'ight?
- A'ight.

D still not talking?

Not to me.

He will, man.

He'll come around.

Hey, I got her on tape.

The dead woman.

Oh, that bitch.

I'm gonna email it to you.
Want you to put it on something.

What you... Put it on what?

Whatever, man. Like a... a thumb drive.

- Thumb drive, all right.
- Yeah.

Mr. Daniels.

Mind if we have a word?

In addition to the stolen car
found at the site of the attack,

we've recovered a second car
registered to Ms. Jayne,

in which we found a vacuum collection tube

containing what appears to be
an anticholinergic BZ nerve agent.

Blocks signals
to the central nervous system,

masks as a heart attack.

We're taking samples from the hotel room
where Laura Jennings was found

to see if we pick up some more traces.

And you've been in contact
with Agent Osman from the FBI?

We have.

Because this woman's laptop
fully exonerates me.

Agent Osman shares your assessment.

As of this moment,
we are looking at Ms. Jayne

as the prime suspect

in the murders of Mark Simon,
Laura Jennings, Donald Sloss Jr.,

Stuart Magnusson,
and Magnusson's bodyguard Raul Diaz.

Ms. Jayne wasn't acting alone.

This is audio of her acknowledging
that she worked for Rodney Kraintz.

Listen to it.

Please.

You've been very helpful, Mr. Daniels.

This woman would still be at large had
you not forced her into making a mistake.

We're grateful.

That said,
let us take it from here.

Mr. Daniels.

She's gonna be okay.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey, buddy.

What's up?

Will you come stay with me
while your mom gets better?

I can fix up the second bedroom.

I'm cool.

Want to at least come to dinner?

Why didn't you fix it up before?

I think I just thought that, uh...

that it was temporary.

Me and your mom being apart.

It was never about not loving you.

All right?

I'm gonna go to see your mom later.

If you wanna go with me, let me know.

I love you.

In stores everywhere.

Elsewhere
on Capitol Hill today,

Ross Wright, the chairman of the
Energy and Natural Resources Committee,

presided over controversial hearings
on the deregulation of mining rights.

Speaking to reporters
following the hearing, Wright stated,

quote, "Private companies
should be given increased rights,

if we, as a nation,
want to survive the climate crisis."

Today, the FBI announced
that this woman, Julia Jayne,

was behind the murder
of white supremacist Mark Simon.

After a business deal
between Simon and Jayne fell apart,

Jayne hired this man,
Donald Bartholomew Sloss Jr.,

to commit the gruesome murder,

for which Sloss then attempted
to pin the blame

on CNN pundit Muncie Daniels.

Investigators believe
Jayne and Sloss also murdered

Wall Street titan Stu Magnusson

due to his apparent
clandestine connection to Simon.

An FBI spokesperson went on to say

they believe Jayne to be
the sole mastermind behind the murders,

and they consider the case
to be officially closed.

Kraintz got you
off the hook, dawg.

He's fucking with reality.
Got everyone believing it was Julia Jayne.

- It don't matter, though.
- It does!

- He's the reason Elena is in the hospital.
- What about the recording? Huh?

I just spoke to the detective.
She's not following up.

Says the conversation
can't be fucking verified.

They're not even looking into him.

Look, I know you don't care about this
right now, but, uh...

CNN called.

The fuck they want?

When the story hit, Folsom saw it,
and now he wants a tell-all.

Get the fuck out of here.
That dude just fired me nine days ago.

Yeah. Look, I get it, dawg.

That's why I didn't even
want to come to you with this shit, dude.

Is it the hospital?

Hello?

Hey.

Hey.

I was scared we almost lost you.

Well, it sounds like you almost did.

That bitch shot me, Muncie.

Shot me.

I'm so sorry.

For a million things,
but mostly because I wasn't there.

I just spoke to Demetrius.

He's...

not in a good place.

We need time to heal.

And I need to just focus on that
without distraction.

- Okay, well, how about we...
- Let me finish.

I love you.

I do.

So much.

And I know why you did what you did.

But when I leave out of here,

D and I need...

We need space.

Can we agree to that?

You take care of him till I feel better,
and then...

After that, I need you...

You... You have to just...

...step back.

Yeah.

Dr. Turner to OR 1, please.

Dr. Turner, please report to OR 1.

Muncie.

Do you have a moment?

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to...

Bill Johnson.

I'm a lawyer for Rodney Kraintz.

Revitalize.

Uh, personal attorney.

He was wondering
if you're, uh, interested in an offer.

Of what?

Five million dollars for an NDA.

Agreeing to?

Remain silent about
what you think you know.

You don't have to answer now.

It's a one-pager.

Pretty simple.

Between you, Rodney, and the wind.

Fuck off.

Have a good day.

Likely means that he's not trying
to kill you no more, so, uh...

that's good.

What if I'm not for sale?

Hasn't your family
been through enough, dawg?

Kraintz knows I know the truth.

So even if I sign that,
he'll still come after me.

If not today, then in six months.

I'll spend the rest of my days
double-checking the locks on my windows,

making sure
nobody's fucked with my gas meter at home.

I won't get any sleep at night
until I know he's in jail

or dead.

So, what's the move? Hmm?

Because I don't see a lot of options here,
at all.

I mean, what you gonna do, uh, kill him?

Nah. You ain't even built like that.
Don't even play.

You are not your pops.

Nigga, just sign it.

Take Folsom up on his offer.

Go to CNN and use that to message Kraintz.

Corroborate all the bullshit
he been putting out there,

show him that you playing ball,
and I am quite sure he will leave you be.

- All right, call Brian.
- All right, I'm on it.

And get some security
to watch Elena's room. No matter the cost.

Yeah, sure.

What you plan on saying
when you get on air?

Still working that out.

Hey.

Hey.

You get your car back okay?

Yeah.

Yeah, I did. Thank you.

I know who killed your husband.

Who ordered it.

Name's Rodney Kraintz.

Have you told the FBI?

I think I may go public.

So I thought I'd let you know first.

Maybe it'll get The Forge off your back
if they knew you weren't involved.

You...

You want me to tell The Forge
so they can avenge Mark's death?

I want someone to know Kraintz's name

in case he gets to me first.

The guy almost got my wife killed.

Although it's partly my fault...

getting her involved, but, uh...

It was partly my fault too...

that Mark was killed.

Julia Jayne, she, uh... she came to me

pretending to be FBI.

She asked where Mark was.

I, uh...

I didn't care that he was arrested,

but...

So, yeah.

Maybe you're motivated to make people pay.

I want everyone to pay.

Myself included.

This guy really sucks
at free throws.

Yeah.

Do you play?

College.

Till I messed up my knee. I...

I didn't finish.

I was in a frat in college.

Mostly white boys.

My father was in prison,
so I was just looking.

I was also
in the African American Student Union.

The guys in the house started giving me
a lot of shit about becoming a militant.

They called me Muncie the Militant.

Here I am, I'm just trying to figure out
who I am as a Black man in the world,

and navigating all this shit.

And they were just

wanting me to be the best dancer
at every party.

Then I had my daughter.

The guys found out,
and they started to tease me

about having a child out of wedlock.

So, uh...

one day, I just, uh...

I just went after them.

And they beat the shit out of me.

I got in a few licks, but, uh...

it's like they were looking for an excuse.

After that, I just...

I just decided to... go it alone.

Looking for, uh...

I don't know.

People are fucking evil.

I should have just stayed cool, though.

That's what I try to teach my son,
you know?

You should've taken a bat to their heads.

You know, the one thing I wish is that
he had, uh, taken more advantage

of the kind of community
that we have here.

Because that's what's gonna
get you through the shit.

Anyway, let's, uh, raise one

for a good man from Brooklyn. Franco!

- Hear, hear!
- Franco!

It's good you came.

- You good?
- Ah.

Uh, I just am.

I don't know. Not good, not bad.

I was such an asshole.

I mean,
the guy genuinely fought the good fight.

Loathed injustice, you know.

I hung him out to dry.

I got family too, you know.

Anyway.

I can't mess with this case anymore
if I want to keep my job,

but this is Franco's notebook.

He didn't have Kraintz's name,
but if he had...

I don't know, the last entry's
about a cobalt mine in Minnesota.

It could be a thread worth pulling.

- Okay.
- Hey.

Thank you.

Yeah.

How do you know
he's saying the truth?

I don't.

But it makes sense.

Mark knew what Revitalize was doing.

Rodney Kraintz runs Revitalize.

Mark supported their shit, then stopped.

Then got killed.

Why are you telling us?

Huh?

Because you keep talking about
wanting to find out who killed Mark,

so I'm telling you.

And I'm sick of dim-witted fuckheads
thinking I had something to do with it.

How'd they know where Mark was?

If they can make
a whole election go their way,

I'm pretty sure they can Google Map
where someone's staying.

Well, Mark was pretty careful.

Yeah, except he ended up
living next to a Black guy

who figured this shit out while you were
sitting here baking fucking cake.

Look, you guys have people everywhere.

People who can find shit out.
So I'm telling you what I know, okay?

Do with it what you will.

Muncie, you got a sec?

Yeah.

I'm so glad this worked out.

Appreciate you carving out the time.

Such an incredible story.

So, um...

...as we discussed,

we're billing this as a personal exposé

from a cherished contributor on
a tragic topic that speaks to our moment.

Cherished?

It's a valid sentiment.

You fired me.

Suspended without pay.

- Come on, man.
- Pending a murder investigation.

I think that was fair game.

The point is that you're building a case
against this Rodney Kraintz.

And we want to give you that platform.

But we also want you
to not hold back on the emotion.

I got you.

Person of color,
wrongly accused, ex-wife attacked...

- Not to give you talking points...
- This is about me putting this guy away.

- I agree.
- Not me crying.

I understand.

This ain't The View.

This is a news program

on which I'll tell people about someone
messing with them and killing for profit.

I understand.

We all understand. The whole world
knows about lethal disinformation.

So what I'm asking
is to not turn it into a lecture.

You know, viewers respond to feelings.

Not names of people they never heard of.

They want something to be outraged about.

So give them that.

I know there was talk
before this all went down

about you getting your own show.

I hear if tonight goes well,
there's still a chance.

- Kallie.
- You going through with it?

Yeah.

There's still a risk.

It's all a fucking risk.

True.

I gotta go.

Good luck.

Settle down, everyone.
We're back in six.

The audio I just played you
was of Julia Jayne,

who the FBI claims was solely responsible
for an array of murders.

But they've withheld the name of the man
you heard her acknowledge working for,

Rodney Kraintz.

Silent majority owner of Revitalize.

Exposing Kraintz is dangerous,

but I'd rather risk my life
than stay silent.

Now, in addition to that audio,

I have further proof
of Kraintz and Jayne's partnership.

This is surveillance footage of them

that I obtained from a private airport
in Sea Gull Lake, Minnesota,

where Revitalize owns one of the only
prospective cobalt mines in the US,

one that will go completely unregulated
if next fall's climate bill passes.

Kraintz hired Jayne to eliminate
those in the way of deregulation.

So I am imploring authorities
to do their job and arrest Rodney Kraintz,

who uses disinformation and murder

to reap profit
in the name of sustainability.

That's it.

I also want to talk about something else.

Accountability.

When people like Kraintz corrupt
our capacity to care for one another,

then we lose our accountability.

We blame and we sucker punch

rather than being responsible
to those around us.

Starting with those in our lives,

which is where I find myself now.

Having stopped being accountable
to my community,

to the folks who made me who I am.

Because if I fail them,

I will surely fail all others.

I'm part of the problem too.

I'm not gonna sit here anymore
and twist the truth.

So...

this will be my last contribution
to the circus.

No more madness.

I've never seen anything
quite like that before.

Well, that was certainly
very interesting to watch.

I'd like to hear your thoughts on
what you just saw and what you heard.

Well, Daniels seemed inspired,
but also delusional,

under the impression that
he could dismantle the very same system

that made him who he is.

Well, that said,

given what he's been through,
I mean, he looked fantastic.

Yeah, he sure did.
And just so earnest.

Though, uh, I'm not sure earnest
is gonna earn him any of the accolades.

You might be right about that.
But I just wonder, do you think...

Goddammit!

...he'll come back? Any thoughts?

I'm a betting man,
so I'm gonna say no.

Well, I hope you're wrong.
I would like to see him again.

- Anything can happen.
- One day at a time.

- I'm good for the money.
- Thank you so much for your time...

Fuck!

Hey.

Yeah.

I'm really glad you came.

Mom said I should.

I set up the bedroom.

You mean futon room?

Well, it's a bedroom with a futon.

Come here. Let me show you.

I'm only staying one night.

What'd you do with all your stuff?

The awards or whatever.

I don't need that up anymore.

Hey,

maybe we can put some posters up.

You still into Bob Marley?

No one stops being into Bob Marley.

You see me on the news last night?

Mm-hmm.

A'ight.

Thoughts?

I'm not really sure what it meant.

Means I went after the guy
who ordered the attack on your mom.

Kind of just felt like a TV show.

Polo?

No.

- Think what I did will make a difference?
- TV doesn't make a difference.

- You got a better idea?
- If you know who did it...

shoot him up like you almost did
them white boys out front Aunt Nadia's.

That's not a solution.

You don't still got that piece?

That's what I would do.

Carry out your own justice?

It's our right.

You even care she almost died?

I do.

‘Cause to me,
it don't even seem like you love her, man.

- She's the one who wanted the separation.
- 'Cause she wanted you to be better.

All you ever do is what's best for you.

- That's not true...
- Man, she fucking killed for you!

She killed for you.

You think going on some bitch-ass TV show
gonna make you some kind of hero?

Nah.

You don't fucking get it.

Where you going?

Polo picking me up.

If the priority
is to stop domestic terror,

there is more than enough here to start.

There are detailed plans on abductions,
bombings, political assassinations,

many of which specifically
come from the PA branch of The Forge.

And can you tell us
why you've decided to share all of this?

I feel like I should do something.

Yeah, I... I understand that.

But why?

'Cause I was part of it.

And even if I can't make amends...

there needs to be a cost.

So you want to take down The Forge?

Yeah.

Even though they're just a symptom.

Of what?

People fucking with people.

After Muncie Daniels' allegations
two nights ago

concerning data analyst Rodney Kraintz,

Poconos Regional Police issued a statement
saying they wanted to speak with Kraintz,

and this morning,
Kraintz reported for questioning.

He made these comments just moments ago
as he left police headquarters.

Ms. Jayne was a delusional
and imbalanced former employee

who went on to commit truly horrible acts.

But the fact is

she was fired a week after
the airport photo was captured,

and we've not communicated in over a year.

Even in an age of rampant disinformation,

these manipulated audio recordings

and non-contextualized
allegations against me...

- Shut the fuck up!
- ...are a new low.

- Thank you. Thank you.
- One more question.

Are you planning
any legal action...

Yo, it's D. Leave a message.

Fuck.

- Hey, you reach him?
- No, but I got a hit on his phone.

500 block, Gulf Ave., Staten Island.

- How close are you?
- Uh, thirty minutes.

I'm not that far behind.

Demetrius!

Demetrius!

- Hey.
- Why are you here?

Put the gun down.

I said put the gun down!

Son!

Hey, put the fucking gun down!

You full of shit!

I think all you do is talk,
and you... you've always been like that!

Just talking,

What do you want me to do?

I want you to do something!

You want me to kill people?

Put it down, son.

Put it down, all right? Come on.

It's all right. It's all right.

D.

What the fuck... What the fuck...

Hey.

Can you get him? He's pretty upset.

Yeah.

So what you gonna do?

I'll catch up with you in Philly.

Don't be dumb.

Don't.

Sure.

I would say it's nice to meet you,
although after the CNN accusation...

We're not doing that.

Uh, doing what?

The whole thing.

Okay.

- Is that your troll farm in there?
- I thought we weren't doing that.

The whole thing.

You here to hurt me?

Should I?

I haven't done anything.

No?

I hire people

to keep people like you at bay.

While I solve problems.

Saving the fucking world?

Providing answers.

Ah. For profit.

For air conditioners
because the Earth is hot.

And guess what air conditioners require?

Motherfuckers like you.

- Zero carbon electricity.
- Shut the fuck up.

You asked me a question.

You tried to kill my wife.

If someone hurt someone you love, or...

if you feel wounded
by the stretching of some truth,

or by the demise of a neo-Nazi,

I would ask that you consider
the larger framework.

This is a much...

Stop.

It's just you and I.

A guy with a gun.

A guy sitting at a desk.

I put one in your head,
place the gun in your hands,

disable that camera over there,
and I walk.

Actually, you drive.

Back to your fanciful apartment.

Paid for by a network
that is owned by entities

that destroy our planet daily.

You think I buy

influence, politicians, elections?

Everyone does.

You were bought off
the second you smiled into the camera.

You couldn't extricate yourself
if you tried.

Why the fuck did you frame me?

You were there.

But you're off now. You're free.
Go work in a soup kitchen.

And what if I kill you first?

The sins of the father.

That's not what you want.

It would still make you dead.

There's a hundred more of me out there.

Me dead on a warehouse floor
means nothing.

I'm a cog in a machine.

We both are.

Inconsequential. But you won't kill me.

Because you desire
more accountability, no?

To your community.

The folks who made you who you are.

Then again, maybe ask yourself,
what does that community want?

Vengeance?

Or moral leadership?

Go ahead.

There's already somebody else.
And they know exactly...

who you are.

Some are calling it
poetic justice,

after this morning's
broad daylight assassination

of data analyst Rodney Kraintz,

who not long ago
was accused of masterminding

the murder of white supremacist
thought leader Mark Simon.

If you stir up the madness of the world,

then that madness
will eventually come back to bite you,

and I believe that's what we saw today
with Rodney Kraintz.

Polls indicate that
Energy Commission Chairman Ross Wright

is on track to handily win
his Senate re-election campaign this fall.

We'll be following that race as it goes on
