00:00:01,634 --> 00:00:05,004
(finch)
you are being watched.
2
00:00:05,006 --> 00:00:07,006
The government
has a secret system--
3
00:00:07,008 --> 00:00:11,810
A machine that spies on you
every hour of every day.
4
00:00:11,812 --> 00:00:14,213
I designed the machine
to detect acts of terror,
5
00:00:14,215 --> 00:00:16,048
But it sees everything...
6
00:00:16,050 --> 00:00:19,284
Violent crimes
involving ordinary people.
7
00:00:19,286 --> 00:00:22,488
The government considers
these people irrelevant.
8
00:00:22,490 --> 00:00:24,523
We don't.
9
00:00:24,525 --> 00:00:29,128
Hunted by the authorities,
we work in secret.
10
00:00:29,130 --> 00:00:30,963
You will never find us.
11
00:00:30,965 --> 00:00:32,965
But victim or perpetrator,
12
00:00:32,967 --> 00:00:36,035
If your number's up,
we'll find you.
13
00:00:39,506 --> 00:00:42,307
The leaked black budget report
reveals several classified
14
00:00:42,309 --> 00:00:44,510
Military intelligence programs,
15
00:00:44,512 --> 00:00:46,245
With code names
like chalk eagle
16
00:00:46,247 --> 00:00:47,846
And tractor rose.
17
00:00:47,848 --> 00:00:50,215
A program designated
northern lights has...
18
00:00:50,217 --> 00:00:52,384
Northern lights has a budget
far outstripping
19
00:00:52,386 --> 00:00:54,219
Any other program.
20
00:00:54,221 --> 00:00:56,388
Classified
as "operation support
21
00:00:56,390 --> 00:00:58,424
For counterterrorism
activities,"
22
00:00:58,426 --> 00:01:00,325
The details are scarce.
23
00:01:00,327 --> 00:01:03,228
Some have speculated
that it may be related
24
00:01:03,230 --> 00:01:05,230
To the surveillance
of american citizens.
25
00:01:05,232 --> 00:01:08,801
If so, what does that mean
for our privacy?
26
00:01:08,803 --> 00:01:11,637
Media got a hold
of the program name,
27
00:01:11,639 --> 00:01:14,073
Which means your old boss
control just lost it.
28
00:01:14,075 --> 00:01:15,974
Bitch tried to kill me.
29
00:01:15,976 --> 00:01:18,077
Nice to see her head on
the chopping block for change.
30
00:01:18,079 --> 00:01:20,079
Anyone connected to the machine
will be burying evidence
31
00:01:20,081 --> 00:01:21,580
6 feet down.
32
00:01:21,582 --> 00:01:24,516
Could put the program
in jeopardy.
33
00:01:24,518 --> 00:01:27,453
Government can't put the machine
back in the box.
34
00:01:27,455 --> 00:01:29,021
We're still getting
our numbers,
35
00:01:29,023 --> 00:01:31,390
So the lights are on.
36
00:01:33,460 --> 00:01:35,594
Let's go.
37
00:01:42,469 --> 00:01:43,802
Morning.
38
00:01:43,804 --> 00:01:46,105
You guys have the pancakes?
39
00:01:46,107 --> 00:01:48,540
Try the banana
chocolate chip--amazing.
40
00:01:48,542 --> 00:01:50,109
What?
41
00:01:50,111 --> 00:01:51,710
No small talk?
42
00:01:51,712 --> 00:01:54,813
All right,
fine by me.
43
00:01:54,815 --> 00:01:57,716
You have the product?
44
00:01:57,718 --> 00:01:59,618
What's it look like?
45
00:01:59,620 --> 00:02:02,154
You got the money?
46
00:02:06,259 --> 00:02:08,894
1 million.
We have a deal?
47
00:02:08,896 --> 00:02:10,929
You got it, man.
48
00:02:15,535 --> 00:02:18,537
That fast, huh?
49
00:02:18,539 --> 00:02:21,707
Couldn't even wait to get back
to the hotel to count it?
50
00:02:21,709 --> 00:02:24,776
See, ray, your partner's already
picked out a house in hawaii.
51
00:02:24,778 --> 00:02:26,111
So as soon
as you turn your back,
52
00:02:26,113 --> 00:02:27,412
He's gonna put two
in your head
53
00:02:27,414 --> 00:02:28,413
And keep all the money
for himself.
54
00:02:28,415 --> 00:02:29,648
But guess what, julio.
55
00:02:29,650 --> 00:02:31,550
Ray here put a down payment
on a yacht,
56
00:02:31,552 --> 00:02:33,919
Told your girl
he'd show her the world.
57
00:02:33,921 --> 00:02:36,788
500,000 buys a lot.
But a million?
58
00:02:36,790 --> 00:02:39,158
Both of you would take out
your partner for that.
59
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,325
Oh, you little son of a...
60
00:02:40,327 --> 00:02:42,427
Sorry, guys.
Deal's off.

[groans]
64
00:02:56,310 --> 00:02:58,143
Fusco can clean this up.
65
00:02:58,145 --> 00:03:01,313
20 years in lockup ought to keep
'em from killing each other.
66
00:03:01,315 --> 00:03:03,749
(shaw)
see? Business as usual.
67
00:03:03,751 --> 00:03:05,751
Even if the government's
program's on ice,
68
00:03:05,753 --> 00:03:07,853
The machine is still
spitting out numbers.
69
00:03:07,855 --> 00:03:09,688
You know finch.
70
00:03:09,690 --> 00:03:11,823
Even without northern lights,
his machine will find a way
71
00:03:11,825 --> 00:03:14,493
To maintain
national security.
72
00:03:14,495 --> 00:03:16,228
Really?
73
00:03:16,230 --> 00:03:18,297
Well, then who's handling
the relevant threats?
74
00:03:24,871 --> 00:03:26,071
Root.
75
00:03:26,073 --> 00:03:27,606
Hey, kids.
76
00:03:27,608 --> 00:03:29,341
You miss me
between drug deals?
77
00:03:29,343 --> 00:03:32,711
Yeah. I miss you like I miss
an intestinal parasite.
78
00:03:32,713 --> 00:03:34,680
I love your similes.
79
00:03:34,682 --> 00:03:36,114
Hop on, shaw.
80
00:03:36,116 --> 00:03:38,250
We've got a relevant number
in alaska.
81
00:03:38,252 --> 00:03:40,686
We're gonna steal
a jet.
82
00:03:40,688 --> 00:03:43,088
Does sound kind of fun.
83
00:03:43,090 --> 00:03:46,258
Send me a postcard.
84
00:03:46,260 --> 00:03:48,794
Turn that frown
upside down, lurch.
85
00:03:48,796 --> 00:03:50,929
You're going
on vacation too.
86
00:03:50,931 --> 00:03:53,465
Harold's about to call from d.C.
He needs your help.
87
00:03:53,467 --> 00:03:55,133
[engine revs]
88

[earpiece beeps]

00:04:00,107 --> 00:04:02,274
(finch)
mr. Reese, I'm afraid
our services are required
90
00:04:02,276 --> 00:04:04,009
In the nation's capital.
91
00:04:04,011 --> 00:04:06,345
I heard.
On my way.
92
00:04:13,219 --> 00:04:15,220
[door opens, closes]
93
00:04:15,222 --> 00:04:18,523
Finch?
94
00:04:20,026 --> 00:04:21,994
This'll work.
95
00:04:21,996 --> 00:04:23,662
[door opens]
96
00:04:23,664 --> 00:04:24,830
Oh, good, you're here.
97
00:04:24,832 --> 00:04:29,234
Sorry, got tied up
at the library.
98
00:04:29,236 --> 00:04:33,705
I'm happy to see that you've
come prepared for a long haul.
99
00:04:33,707 --> 00:04:36,708
Dare I hope that you've packed
something other than weaponry?
100
00:04:36,710 --> 00:04:39,578
There's some trip wire
to booby-trap the room door.
101
00:04:39,580 --> 00:04:41,213
And a toothbrush.
102
00:04:41,215 --> 00:04:43,482
Oral hygiene is something,
I suppose.
103
00:04:43,484 --> 00:04:45,884
You got a number
here in d.C.?
104
00:04:45,886 --> 00:04:47,819
It would seem so.
105
00:04:47,821 --> 00:04:50,856
My investigation
into vigilance's activities
106
00:04:50,858 --> 00:04:52,991
Will have to wait.
107
00:04:52,993 --> 00:04:55,494
Well, root is getting
the relevant numbers now.
108
00:04:55,496 --> 00:04:57,029
Shaw is with her.
109
00:04:57,031 --> 00:04:59,197
We're entering
uncharted territory,
110
00:04:59,199 --> 00:05:02,301
Tasked with both relevant
and irrelevant numbers.
111
00:05:02,303 --> 00:05:04,069
Already stretched
pretty thin, finch.
112
00:05:04,071 --> 00:05:06,071
And at the worst
possible time.
113
00:05:06,073 --> 00:05:10,175
Just when decima is determined
to make samaritan operational.
114
00:05:10,177 --> 00:05:12,611
Maybe the timing's not
a coincidence.
115
00:05:12,613 --> 00:05:16,448
I fear
that it may be connected.
116
00:05:16,450 --> 00:05:18,083
These are strange times,
117
00:05:18,085 --> 00:05:22,854
And the threat of samaritan
should not be underestimated.
118
00:05:22,856 --> 00:05:25,090
How do you know
it's not already up and running?
119
00:05:25,092 --> 00:05:27,959
Because we'd be dead,
mr. Reese.
120
00:05:27,961 --> 00:05:31,430
The machine is a shield.
It protects lives.
121
00:05:31,432 --> 00:05:35,300
I designed it with safeguards
to prevent it being abused
122
00:05:35,302 --> 00:05:37,369
As an agent of destruction.
123
00:05:37,371 --> 00:05:40,806
Samaritan is an open system,
a sword.
124
00:05:40,808 --> 00:05:43,175
If it gains access
to the government's feeds,
125
00:05:43,177 --> 00:05:45,110
There will be no checks
on its power.
126
00:05:45,112 --> 00:05:46,945
There will be no limits
to the knowledge possessed
127
00:05:46,947 --> 00:05:48,980
By the person
controlling it.
128
00:05:48,982 --> 00:05:52,117
Decima would definitely use it
to hunt down its enemies.
129
00:05:52,119 --> 00:05:53,885
And as confidants
of the machine,
130
00:05:53,887 --> 00:05:55,887
You and I would be
at the top of the list.
131
00:05:55,889 --> 00:05:58,290
(reese)
so maybe the machine
is trying to protect us.
132
00:05:58,292 --> 00:06:01,693
No, I built it
to protect everyone,
133
00:06:01,695 --> 00:06:04,596
One number at a time.
134
00:06:04,598 --> 00:06:05,797
Oh, my.
135
00:06:05,799 --> 00:06:07,132
What?
136
00:06:08,801 --> 00:06:10,936
(reese)
that's roger mccourt.
137
00:06:10,938 --> 00:06:13,872
Our new number is
a United States congressman?
138
00:06:13,874 --> 00:06:15,307
From illinois.
139
00:06:15,309 --> 00:06:17,275
Six terms in congress.
140
00:06:17,277 --> 00:06:18,910
Current ranking
minority member
141
00:06:18,912 --> 00:06:20,879
Of the pivotal
house rules committee.
142
00:06:20,881 --> 00:06:24,416
The rules committee controls
the flow of legislation--
143
00:06:24,418 --> 00:06:28,253
Spurring it forward
or stopping it altogether.
144
00:06:28,255 --> 00:06:30,555
If he has
that much power,
145
00:06:30,557 --> 00:06:32,257
He'll have
plenty of enemies.
146
00:06:32,259 --> 00:06:34,292
Given their activities
in washington recently,
147
00:06:34,294 --> 00:06:37,596
Vigilance would have
to be a suspect.
148
00:06:37,598 --> 00:06:39,631
However, mccourt's been
an outspoken opponent
149
00:06:39,633 --> 00:06:41,266
Of government surveillance.
150
00:06:41,268 --> 00:06:42,901
Could decima
want him dead?
151
00:06:42,903 --> 00:06:44,503
Perhaps.
152
00:06:44,505 --> 00:06:47,739
But killing a congressman
would seem too flashy for them.
153
00:06:47,741 --> 00:06:51,009
Nobody likes the government
these days.
154
00:06:51,011 --> 00:06:53,945
Any disgruntled citizen
could be the assassin.
155
00:06:53,947 --> 00:06:56,915
We have to get
to the capitol.

It's not feline.
It's verdi.

you can be the disc jockey.

I'll just sing for you.

Of catching
lobbyist disease.

It's gonna be difficult

all phone activity.

Mccourt doesn't want the
government eavesdropping on him?

than anyone

could be listening.

00:08:00,247 --> 00:08:02,047
Narrow down the list
of threats.
181
00:08:02,049 --> 00:08:05,116
The capitol police detail
won't let anyone near him.
182
00:08:05,118 --> 00:08:08,119
Congressmen are eligible
for secret service protection
183
00:08:08,121 --> 00:08:10,121
In the event
of additional risk.
184
00:08:10,123 --> 00:08:12,457
No one's made an attempt
on his life yet.
185
00:08:12,459 --> 00:08:14,960
The congressman doesn't
even know the danger he's in.
186
00:08:14,962 --> 00:08:17,963
[rock music]
187
00:08:17,965 --> 00:08:21,800
¶ ¶
188
00:08:21,802 --> 00:08:24,469
[all screaming]
189
00:08:26,205 --> 00:08:29,074
He knows now.
Drive, finch.
190
00:08:29,076 --> 00:08:30,475
[engine starts]
191
00:08:30,477 --> 00:08:33,945
[tires screeching]
192
00:08:41,387 --> 00:08:42,687
I have to tell you,
mr. Reese,
193
00:08:42,689 --> 00:08:44,422
I don't approve
of this strategy.
194
00:08:44,424 --> 00:08:46,525
You're the one who said
you couldn't make an alias
195
00:08:46,527 --> 00:08:48,059
That would pass
secret service muster.
196
00:08:48,061 --> 00:08:49,728
(finch)
I said I didn't have time.
197
00:08:49,730 --> 00:08:51,363
I didn't know you were gonna
steal the identity
198
00:08:51,365 --> 00:08:53,365
Of an actual
secret service agent.
199
00:08:53,367 --> 00:08:55,567
(reese)
I'm just borrowing it. Relax.
200
00:08:55,569 --> 00:08:57,769
Order some room service.
201
00:08:57,771 --> 00:08:59,404
(finch)
perhaps I will when you tell me
what you've done
202
00:08:59,406 --> 00:09:01,106
With the real agent abbott.
203
00:09:01,108 --> 00:09:04,142
He's resting comfortably in
a motel room near the airport.
204
00:09:04,144 --> 00:09:06,645
Define "comfortably."
205
00:09:06,647 --> 00:09:08,680
Gotta go, finch.
206
00:09:08,682 --> 00:09:10,181
The rules committee
is meeting in ten minutes,
207
00:09:10,183 --> 00:09:11,816
You have your journal interview
at 11:30,
208
00:09:11,818 --> 00:09:13,285
And then lunch
at ocean grill
209
00:09:13,287 --> 00:09:14,686
With cynthia carol
from privacy first
210
00:09:14,688 --> 00:09:16,254
To discuss your
anti-surveillance initiative.
211
00:09:16,256 --> 00:09:18,356
Good morning, leslie.
Good morning, congressman.
212
00:09:18,358 --> 00:09:19,691
Who's this?
213
00:09:19,693 --> 00:09:20,959
This is agent abbott,
secret service.
214
00:09:20,961 --> 00:09:22,928
He's been assigned to you.
215
00:09:22,930 --> 00:09:24,129
Because of the shooting?
216
00:09:24,131 --> 00:09:25,864
Oh, sorry,
I was thinking more
217
00:09:25,866 --> 00:09:27,432
About the business
ahead of me today
218
00:09:27,434 --> 00:09:28,767
Rather than behind.
219
00:09:28,769 --> 00:09:29,935
Where you from, abbott?
220
00:09:29,937 --> 00:09:31,436
[typing]
221
00:09:31,438 --> 00:09:32,604
(finch)
he's from tulsa, oklahoma.
222
00:09:32,606 --> 00:09:34,773
Tulsa, sir.
223
00:09:34,775 --> 00:09:38,043
Tulsa, oklahoma.
Good people, salt of the earth.
224
00:09:38,045 --> 00:09:39,811
And for tonight,
tickets to the verdi opera
225
00:09:39,813 --> 00:09:40,979
At the kennedy center.
226
00:09:40,981 --> 00:09:42,314
Do I have to go to this?
227
00:09:42,316 --> 00:09:43,315
This sounds
like screeching cats.
228
00:09:43,317 --> 00:09:44,449
You promised your wife.
229
00:09:44,451 --> 00:09:46,318
I could shoot you
in the leg, sir.
230
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:47,385
Pardon me?
231
00:09:47,387 --> 00:09:49,888
Might get you out
of the opera.
232
00:09:49,890 --> 00:09:51,656
[laughs]
233
00:09:51,658 --> 00:09:53,525
You know, duran here, he always
wanted to be secret service.
234
00:09:53,527 --> 00:09:54,859
Isn't that right, duran?
235
00:09:54,861 --> 00:09:57,162
At one time, sir.
236
00:09:57,164 --> 00:09:58,563
Well, if you show abbott
some love here,
237
00:09:58,565 --> 00:10:00,532
Maybe he'll put in
a good word for you.
238
00:10:00,534 --> 00:10:03,802
Oh, and we can dispense with
the stoplights today, okay?
239
00:10:08,841 --> 00:10:12,711
[beeping]
240
00:10:12,713 --> 00:10:13,712
[engine starts]
241
00:10:13,714 --> 00:10:19,484
[sirens blaring]
242
00:10:23,155 --> 00:10:26,157
Mccourt!
Dunphy.
243
00:10:26,159 --> 00:10:27,392
You should've called first.
244
00:10:27,394 --> 00:10:28,727
My office is slammed
this morning.
245
00:10:28,729 --> 00:10:30,562
Is this about
the airline contract?
246
00:10:30,564 --> 00:10:32,230
They're trying
to stick it to us, mac.
Yeah.
247
00:10:32,232 --> 00:10:33,898
And now I'm hearing
you might be taking their side
248
00:10:33,900 --> 00:10:35,166
Instead of the union's?
249
00:10:35,168 --> 00:10:36,701
Dunphy, dunphy.
250
00:10:36,703 --> 00:10:38,436
(finch)
it must be bruce dunphy,
251
00:10:38,438 --> 00:10:41,373
Part of the leadership of
the illinois machinists union.
252
00:10:41,375 --> 00:10:43,408
I know
it's a lousy contract,
253
00:10:43,410 --> 00:10:46,044
But I do think
that you ought to sign it.
254
00:10:46,046 --> 00:10:48,179
Unbelievable.
You backstabbing son of a--
255
00:10:48,181 --> 00:10:49,848
Whoa, hold it, hold it.
256
00:10:49,850 --> 00:10:51,016
You think you can pull
this bait and switch with us,
257
00:10:51,018 --> 00:10:52,851
With me,
and get away with it?
258
00:10:52,853 --> 00:10:55,854
Looks like mccourt might have
crossed the wrong union, boss.
259
00:10:55,856 --> 00:10:58,857
It's not a good deal,
but it does keep the plant open.
260
00:10:58,859 --> 00:11:00,191
[sighs]
261
00:11:00,193 --> 00:11:01,493
And it puts you
at the front of the line
262
00:11:01,495 --> 00:11:02,961
For a bigger government
contract
263
00:11:02,963 --> 00:11:05,330
That's coming down the pike
next year.
264
00:11:05,332 --> 00:11:07,032
Another contract?
Yeah.
265
00:11:07,034 --> 00:11:11,002
So you see, bruce,
I am looking out for your guys.
266
00:11:11,004 --> 00:11:12,837
But you do have
to trust me.
267
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,542
(dunphy)
I guess I jumped the gun
a little bit.
268
00:11:17,544 --> 00:11:18,877
Forget it.
269
00:11:18,879 --> 00:11:20,345
Hey, is your wife in town
with you?
270
00:11:20,347 --> 00:11:21,880
Yeah.
Here.
271
00:11:21,882 --> 00:11:23,615
Go as my guest.
272
00:11:23,617 --> 00:11:25,784
It's classical stuff.
She'll love it.
273
00:11:25,786 --> 00:11:27,485
Really?
Oh, thanks, mac.
274
00:11:27,487 --> 00:11:28,687
It's my pleasure.
275
00:11:28,689 --> 00:11:29,988
Tell your guys
not to worry.
276
00:11:29,990 --> 00:11:32,123
Remember,
I'm your man.
277
00:11:32,125 --> 00:11:33,324
Thanks.
278
00:11:33,326 --> 00:11:34,859
Leslie,
will you call my wife
279
00:11:34,861 --> 00:11:36,628
And tell her unfortunately
the opera was sold out?
280
00:11:36,630 --> 00:11:38,697
It would appear our congressman
has quite a knack
281
00:11:38,699 --> 00:11:41,466
For getting himself out
of unpleasant situations.
282
00:11:41,468 --> 00:11:43,234
Yeah, that opera
would've been brutal.
283
00:11:43,236 --> 00:11:45,704
Hmm.
284
00:12:07,226 --> 00:12:09,794
[clears throat]
285
00:12:09,796 --> 00:12:11,629
I'm not accustomed
to taking meetings
286
00:12:11,631 --> 00:12:13,131
On such short notice,
287
00:12:13,133 --> 00:12:14,833
But your reputation
precedes you.
288
00:12:14,835 --> 00:12:16,501
Don't worry, senator.
289
00:12:16,503 --> 00:12:18,670
I come with only
the best of intentions.
290
00:12:18,672 --> 00:12:20,672
So what can I do for you?
291
00:12:20,674 --> 00:12:22,173
Actually it's what
I can do for you
292
00:12:22,175 --> 00:12:24,809
And your northern lights
problem.
293
00:12:24,811 --> 00:12:29,614
If you're referring to
the leaked black budget report,
294
00:12:29,616 --> 00:12:31,683
Mine's just one of 100 names
found in there.
295
00:12:31,685 --> 00:12:33,118
I've already made it clear
296
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,452
I have no knowledge
of that project.
297
00:12:34,454 --> 00:12:36,955
Really?
298
00:12:36,957 --> 00:12:39,124
I thought you knew
a great deal about it,
299
00:12:39,126 --> 00:12:41,793
Especially since
the 2008 policy retreat
300
00:12:41,795 --> 00:12:43,328
On martha's vineyard
301
00:12:43,330 --> 00:12:47,532
When you were tapped
to shepherd the program.
302
00:12:47,534 --> 00:12:49,167
Surely you didn't think,
303
00:12:49,169 --> 00:12:51,603
In a world where you were
surveilling everyone,
304
00:12:51,605 --> 00:12:53,705
That no one
was watching you.
305
00:12:53,707 --> 00:12:55,874
So...
306
00:12:55,876 --> 00:12:57,575
What is it you want?
307
00:12:57,577 --> 00:12:59,377
As I told you,
308
00:12:59,379 --> 00:13:01,412
To help.
309
00:13:01,414 --> 00:13:03,047
The group responsible
310
00:13:03,049 --> 00:13:04,949
For leaking your black budget
to the press
311
00:13:04,951 --> 00:13:07,519
Calls themselves vigilance.
312
00:13:07,521 --> 00:13:08,720
Privacy terrorists.
313
00:13:08,722 --> 00:13:11,523
This is one
of their leaders,
314
00:13:11,525 --> 00:13:15,059
Known by his alias
as peter collier.
315
00:13:15,061 --> 00:13:17,362
Ironic.
316
00:13:17,364 --> 00:13:20,198
You risked your career
hiding a program
317
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:21,866
Designed to protect
the country,
318
00:13:21,868 --> 00:13:23,868
Yet it couldn't protect you
from this group
319
00:13:23,870 --> 00:13:25,570
When you needed it to.
320
00:13:25,572 --> 00:13:28,439
And now you've had
to shut it down...
321
00:13:28,441 --> 00:13:32,644
Leaving your country
unprotected.
322
00:13:32,646 --> 00:13:34,746
A frightening prospect
indeed.
323
00:13:34,748 --> 00:13:38,082
The country will always
be protected.
324
00:13:38,084 --> 00:13:39,951
Yes, I'm sure you're weighing
alternative approaches,
325
00:13:39,953 --> 00:13:42,587
As your president
might say.
326
00:13:42,589 --> 00:13:44,823
I can save you the time.
327
00:13:44,825 --> 00:13:47,926
My company,
decima technologies,
328
00:13:47,928 --> 00:13:51,396
Is finalizing development
of a new surveillance system.
329
00:13:51,398 --> 00:13:53,898
All due respect,
330
00:13:53,900 --> 00:13:56,734
We've gone down a similar path
with mixed results.
331
00:13:56,736 --> 00:13:59,003
Northern lights
was effective
332
00:13:59,005 --> 00:14:02,073
But compromised
by the ethics of its creator.
333
00:14:02,075 --> 00:14:04,809
It spoke
but never listened.
334
00:14:04,811 --> 00:14:08,513
What I have not only listens
but obeys.
335
00:14:08,515 --> 00:14:11,015
It can find anyone
336
00:14:11,017 --> 00:14:14,752
Anywhere, anytime.
337
00:14:14,754 --> 00:14:16,821
You merely need to ask.
338
00:14:18,757 --> 00:14:20,225
As intriguing
as that sounds,
339
00:14:20,227 --> 00:14:22,360
There are some members
of congress
340
00:14:22,362 --> 00:14:24,596
Making too much hay
out of this latest scandal
341
00:14:24,598 --> 00:14:27,198
To ever green-light
another program.
342
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:28,766
Hmm.
343
00:14:28,768 --> 00:14:32,003
Share my proposal
with your colleagues.
344
00:14:32,005 --> 00:14:34,906
If there is interest...
345
00:14:34,908 --> 00:14:37,609
Dissenting voices
will not be a problem.
346
00:14:37,611 --> 00:14:39,344
How can you be sure?
347
00:14:39,346 --> 00:14:40,912
Because, senator,
348
00:14:40,914 --> 00:14:43,882
Obstacles
are only obstacles
349
00:14:43,884 --> 00:14:47,418
Until you move them
out of the way.
350
00:14:48,754 --> 00:14:51,956
[indistinct chatter]
351
00:14:51,958 --> 00:14:55,026
So how long you been
with the congressman?
352
00:14:55,028 --> 00:14:57,629
Long enough to know he doesn't
need secret service protection.
353
00:14:57,631 --> 00:14:59,430
What about the shooting?
354
00:14:59,432 --> 00:15:01,366
Just some antigovernment
wing nut
355
00:15:01,368 --> 00:15:02,767
Looking to make
the news cycle.
356
00:15:02,769 --> 00:15:04,502
I suppose that's possible.
357
00:15:04,504 --> 00:15:06,604
(finch)
mr. Reese?
358
00:15:06,606 --> 00:15:10,942
That's my supervisor.
Guy's always in my ear.
359
00:15:10,944 --> 00:15:12,443
What do you got, finch?
360
00:15:12,445 --> 00:15:14,212
Nothing of note.
361
00:15:14,214 --> 00:15:16,614
Mccourt's list of enemies
is practically nonexistent.
362
00:15:16,616 --> 00:15:19,851
He ran a surprisingly clean
campaign to get into office,
363
00:15:19,853 --> 00:15:22,053
And his current stand
against unchecked surveillance
364
00:15:22,055 --> 00:15:24,389
Has endeared him
to elements of both parties.
365
00:15:24,391 --> 00:15:26,024
What about his personal life?
366
00:15:26,026 --> 00:15:29,227
No red flags--finances
are sound, carries no debt,
367
00:15:29,229 --> 00:15:32,597
And has an impressive
stock portfolio.
368
00:15:40,039 --> 00:15:41,506
Help you with something,
friend?
369
00:15:41,508 --> 00:15:42,740
Let go of me.
370
00:15:42,742 --> 00:15:44,175
I'm trying
to be polite here.
371
00:15:44,177 --> 00:15:47,645
It's all right, abbott,
I've got this.
372
00:15:47,647 --> 00:15:49,347
Have a seat.
373
00:15:49,349 --> 00:15:51,649
Thank you, sir.
374
00:15:51,651 --> 00:15:53,584
Local homeless guy.
I've seen him around.
375
00:15:53,586 --> 00:15:55,420
Mccourt knows him?
376
00:15:55,422 --> 00:15:57,221
(duran)
no, but people like him
know mccourt.
377
00:15:57,223 --> 00:15:59,057
He's got a standing offer
to buy a meal
378
00:15:59,059 --> 00:16:00,391
For anyone who needs one.
379
00:16:00,393 --> 00:16:02,060
It's a practice
he started last year
380
00:16:02,062 --> 00:16:04,095
To raise awareness
for the homeless problem.
381
00:16:04,097 --> 00:16:05,997
One more, congressman.
382
00:16:05,999 --> 00:16:08,132
(finch)
it also helps burnish
his public image.
383
00:16:08,134 --> 00:16:09,901
(mccourt)
okay. Get him some soup.
384
00:16:21,413 --> 00:16:24,615
Finch, take this down.
385
00:16:24,617 --> 00:16:29,120
(reese)
echo five dash nine mike
india six.
386
00:16:29,122 --> 00:16:31,089
A license plate?
387
00:16:31,091 --> 00:16:32,757
See if you can trace it.
388
00:16:32,759 --> 00:16:34,792
Abbott, chop-chop!
389
00:16:34,794 --> 00:16:36,361
(finch)
what was that?
390
00:16:36,363 --> 00:16:38,429
Forget it.
391
00:16:40,833 --> 00:16:44,502
Starting to think
I should've gone with root.
392
00:16:49,308 --> 00:16:52,543
[salsa music]
393
00:16:52,545 --> 00:16:57,482
Thanks for being my travel buddy
on these errands.
394
00:16:57,484 --> 00:16:59,350
Sure.
395
00:16:59,352 --> 00:17:01,586
It's not every day you get
to beat up a militia group
396
00:17:01,588 --> 00:17:05,556
In anchorage,
then hop a plane to miami.
397
00:17:05,558 --> 00:17:07,225
So is this what you're
398
00:17:07,227 --> 00:17:10,428
Doing from now on,
you're chasing down bad guys?
399
00:17:10,430 --> 00:17:12,196
I doubt it.
400
00:17:12,198 --> 00:17:15,800
There's still too much work
to be done.
401
00:17:15,802 --> 00:17:17,535
What kind of work?
402
00:17:17,537 --> 00:17:20,038
Preparation.
403
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,375
I understand.
We're leaving now.
404
00:17:24,377 --> 00:17:26,811
Time to go.
Where to?
405
00:17:26,813 --> 00:17:29,580
St. Louis.
Oh, great.
406
00:17:29,582 --> 00:17:33,551
I know a steak joint that serves
a filet that's better than sex.
407
00:17:33,553 --> 00:17:36,320
Yummy as that sounds,
you won't be joining me.
408
00:17:36,322 --> 00:17:39,390
She needs you
somewhere else.
409
00:17:39,392 --> 00:17:42,293
W-where?
410
00:17:43,462 --> 00:17:44,462
[sighs]
411
00:17:44,464 --> 00:17:46,798
[door closes]
412
00:17:49,735 --> 00:17:52,437
You should go back
to dealing coke, sonny.
413
00:17:52,439 --> 00:17:55,306
It's a lot safer
than moving explosives.
414
00:17:55,308 --> 00:18:03,448
¶ ¶
415
00:18:21,733 --> 00:18:23,401
You there, finch?
416
00:18:23,403 --> 00:18:25,036
Always, mr. Reese.
417
00:18:25,038 --> 00:18:27,038
Sounds rather quiet there.
418
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,040
I think the only thing
mccourt is in danger of
419
00:18:29,042 --> 00:18:30,741
Is working too late.
420
00:18:30,743 --> 00:18:33,277
I fear you may need to remain
on his security detail
421
00:18:33,279 --> 00:18:35,079
Longer than anticipated.
422
00:18:35,081 --> 00:18:37,515
Shouldn't we check in
on the real agent abbott?
423
00:18:37,517 --> 00:18:40,618
Yeah, I guess someone
should turn him over.
424
00:18:40,620 --> 00:18:41,686
I beg your pardon?
425
00:18:41,688 --> 00:18:45,423
[man groans]
[clatter]
426
00:18:45,425 --> 00:18:46,424
[sighs]
427
00:18:46,426 --> 00:18:49,293
[man groaning]
428
00:18:49,295 --> 00:18:50,761
What's going on?
429
00:18:50,763 --> 00:18:53,364
Something's wrong, finch.
[cocks gun]
430
00:18:53,366 --> 00:18:55,466
[gasps]
sorry.
431
00:18:55,468 --> 00:18:57,201
(mccourt)
what the hell, abbott?
432
00:18:57,203 --> 00:18:58,703
You never heard
of knocking?
433
00:18:58,705 --> 00:19:02,373
I'm sorry.
I thought I heard a...
434
00:19:02,375 --> 00:19:05,042
Never mind.
435
00:19:05,044 --> 00:19:08,079
Should I call it in?
436
00:19:09,548 --> 00:19:11,616
Finch, mccourt and his aide
have been working
437
00:19:11,618 --> 00:19:13,718
On more
than just policy positions.
438
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,220
Might wanna consider his wife
as a possible threat.
439
00:19:16,222 --> 00:19:20,224
Actually, her emails show that
she's been aware of his affairs
440
00:19:20,226 --> 00:19:22,026
For quite some time.
441
00:19:22,028 --> 00:19:25,830
Seems they have more of
an arrangement than a marriage.
442
00:19:25,832 --> 00:19:27,498
Mr. Reese,
I found something.
443
00:19:27,500 --> 00:19:28,866
(reese)
what is it?
444
00:19:28,868 --> 00:19:30,334
With fusco's aid,
445
00:19:30,336 --> 00:19:31,702
I was able to trace
the license plate
446
00:19:31,704 --> 00:19:33,004
From the suv
outside the restaurant
447
00:19:33,006 --> 00:19:34,639
Back to
a rental car company.
448
00:19:34,641 --> 00:19:37,508
It seems the vehicle was rented
to a shell corporation
449
00:19:37,510 --> 00:19:40,411
Set up by another company...
450
00:19:40,413 --> 00:19:42,513
Decima technologies.
451
00:19:42,515 --> 00:19:44,715
Decima.
452
00:19:44,717 --> 00:19:49,420
You were right, finch.
It's all connected.
453
00:19:49,422 --> 00:19:51,589
Mccourt must be a threat
to samaritan.
454
00:19:54,026 --> 00:19:57,061
Which would explain
why they're here.
455
00:20:00,999 --> 00:20:03,201
[phone ringing]
456
00:20:03,203 --> 00:20:05,436
[phone beeps]
duran.
457
00:20:05,438 --> 00:20:07,338
(man)
there's something
you should know, officer.
458
00:20:07,340 --> 00:20:10,708
He's not secret service.
459
00:20:10,710 --> 00:20:12,610
What?
Who's this?
460
00:20:12,612 --> 00:20:15,646
Here's the real
agent abbott.
461
00:20:22,120 --> 00:20:24,522
Don't do it.
462
00:20:27,092 --> 00:20:29,427
Abbott,
what are you doing?
Stay put.
463
00:20:36,468 --> 00:20:37,935
Mr. Reese,
what's happening?
464
00:20:37,937 --> 00:20:39,804
Change of plans.
I've got mccourt.
465
00:20:39,806 --> 00:20:41,906
Got him?
466
00:20:41,908 --> 00:20:44,208
You've kidnapped
a United States congressman?
467
00:20:44,210 --> 00:20:48,145
Like you said, finch,
these are strange times.
468
00:20:48,147 --> 00:20:51,349
[tires screeching]
469
00:21:05,697 --> 00:21:08,032
[mumbling]
470
00:21:08,034 --> 00:21:09,500
Hello, harold.
471
00:21:09,502 --> 00:21:11,002
Mr. Reese,
I have to question the wisdom
472
00:21:11,004 --> 00:21:12,603
Of abducting
an elected official.
473
00:21:12,605 --> 00:21:15,773
Well, decima blew my cover
and started shooting.
474
00:21:15,775 --> 00:21:17,341
The capitol police
and secret service
475
00:21:17,343 --> 00:21:19,277
Are scouring the city
for you now,
476
00:21:19,279 --> 00:21:21,545
Plus the fbi and about a dozen
other three-letter agencies.
477
00:21:21,547 --> 00:21:23,381
Let's see
how they're doing.
478
00:21:23,383 --> 00:21:25,616
(woman)
traveling west
on independence avenue.
479
00:21:25,618 --> 00:21:27,885
Congressman was abducted in
a black sport utility vehicle,
480
00:21:27,887 --> 00:21:29,620
Illinois license plate 20...
Mm-hmm.
481
00:21:29,622 --> 00:21:31,289
That's us.
Congressional tags.
482
00:21:31,291 --> 00:21:33,958
So we need to dump the car
and hole up somewhere.
483
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,227
Very well. Turn left up here.
I know a place.
484
00:21:41,733 --> 00:21:44,969
(reese)
american beef consultants,
finch?
485
00:21:44,971 --> 00:21:47,204
We need a hiding place,
not a burger.
486
00:21:47,206 --> 00:21:49,807
Last month I bought the beef
industry's lobbying arm.
487
00:21:49,809 --> 00:21:53,711
And don't knock the hamburgers.
They're superb.
488
00:21:55,814 --> 00:21:57,882
Doesn't look like
much of a safe house.
489
00:21:57,884 --> 00:21:59,483
That's the idea--
I cleared out this floor
490
00:21:59,485 --> 00:22:01,552
And added a couple
of cutting-edge amenities--
491
00:22:01,554 --> 00:22:03,621
Fully stocked kitchen,
bulletproof glass.
492
00:22:03,623 --> 00:22:05,389
Okay, mac.
[grunts]
493
00:22:05,391 --> 00:22:06,924
You gonna scream?
494
00:22:06,926 --> 00:22:08,059
[grunts]
495
00:22:08,061 --> 00:22:09,493
John.
496
00:22:09,495 --> 00:22:10,828
Bedside manner.
497
00:22:10,830 --> 00:22:13,397
Congressman,
strange as it may seem,
498
00:22:13,399 --> 00:22:15,399
We wish you no harm,
we're here to help.
499
00:22:15,401 --> 00:22:17,335
But we do need to ask you
a few questions,
500
00:22:17,337 --> 00:22:20,404
And we would prefer that
you did not yell for assistance.
501
00:22:26,111 --> 00:22:28,479
[sighs]
who are you?
502
00:22:28,481 --> 00:22:31,115
Security advisors...
Of a sort.
503
00:22:31,117 --> 00:22:32,950
[scoffs] well, yeah,
I can pay the ransom.
504
00:22:32,952 --> 00:22:35,586
I can get
however much money you need.
505
00:22:35,588 --> 00:22:37,188
Someone's trying
to kill you.
506
00:22:37,190 --> 00:22:38,456
Yeah, you.
507
00:22:38,458 --> 00:22:40,424
What? No.
We're protection.
508
00:22:40,426 --> 00:22:41,759
Protection?
509
00:22:41,761 --> 00:22:44,362
You posed as, uh,
secret service,
510
00:22:44,364 --> 00:22:46,330
You knock out
my security detail,
511
00:22:46,332 --> 00:22:48,199
And then you abduct me
at gunpoint.
512
00:22:48,201 --> 00:22:51,102
Technically I also shot at you
a couple days ago.
513
00:22:51,104 --> 00:22:53,337
Somebody help me,
please!
514
00:22:53,339 --> 00:22:55,506
That's enough!
515
00:22:55,508 --> 00:22:57,842
We don't have time for this.
516
00:22:57,844 --> 00:22:59,543
If you wanna survive,
you're gonna have to help us.
517
00:22:59,545 --> 00:23:02,446
Now, about that hit squad that
my colleague rescued you from...
518
00:23:02,448 --> 00:23:03,948
Hit squad?
That wasn't a hit squad.
519
00:23:03,950 --> 00:23:06,517
That was the fbi
trying to save me from you.
520
00:23:06,519 --> 00:23:08,085
I know it may have
appeared that way,
521
00:23:08,087 --> 00:23:10,755
But I assure you
that was not the case.
522
00:23:10,757 --> 00:23:12,857
What do you know
about company called decima?
523
00:23:12,859 --> 00:23:14,959
Never heard of it.
Why?
524
00:23:14,961 --> 00:23:16,594
They sent the team
that tried to kill you.
525
00:23:16,596 --> 00:23:18,462
Do you know why they would
consider you an enemy?
526
00:23:18,464 --> 00:23:20,264
Me, an enemy?
527
00:23:20,266 --> 00:23:22,900
[laughing] I'm not an enemy.
People love me.
528
00:23:22,902 --> 00:23:25,469
I mean, I might piss
a few people off along the way,
529
00:23:25,471 --> 00:23:28,372
But I always get 'em
whatever it is they need.
530
00:23:28,374 --> 00:23:30,207
I'm a deal maker.
531
00:23:30,209 --> 00:23:32,710
So what is it with you guys?
What do you want, money?
532
00:23:32,712 --> 00:23:35,112
You want a personal telephone
call from the president?
533
00:23:35,114 --> 00:23:36,580
'cause I can get it.
534
00:23:36,582 --> 00:23:38,916
Just please,
come on.
535
00:23:38,918 --> 00:23:41,218
Let me go.
536
00:23:41,220 --> 00:23:45,389
Then, whatever you need,
I'm your man.
537
00:23:45,391 --> 00:23:47,825
[door closes]
[indistinct chatter]
538
00:23:47,827 --> 00:23:48,959
Finch, get down!
539
00:23:48,961 --> 00:23:50,995
[gunshots]
540
00:24:04,576 --> 00:24:06,377
[screams]
541
00:24:15,053 --> 00:24:17,688
You guys all right?
(finch)
yes, we're fine.
542
00:24:17,690 --> 00:24:19,490
Why is everybody shooting
at everybody?
543
00:24:19,492 --> 00:24:21,025
I mean, if you're shooting
at federal agents...
544
00:24:21,027 --> 00:24:24,228
Feds don't walk in
scattering lead.
545
00:24:24,230 --> 00:24:26,063
Decima found us.
How?
546
00:24:26,065 --> 00:24:28,432
Mccourt has no phone
to follow.
547
00:24:32,504 --> 00:24:34,004
It's a tracker.
548
00:24:34,006 --> 00:24:35,739
Do you know
who gave you this?
549
00:24:35,741 --> 00:24:38,709
No idea. It was given to me
at a fund-raiser a week ago.
550
00:24:38,711 --> 00:24:40,678
More operatives
will be arriving soon.
551
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,247
We need to go.
552
00:24:51,089 --> 00:24:54,124
We should leave the beltway.
We'll need a new car.
553
00:24:54,126 --> 00:24:57,194
Or an old one--
easier to hotwire.
554
00:24:57,196 --> 00:24:59,363
[tires screeching]
555
00:25:01,466 --> 00:25:03,434
Take mccourt.
556
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,882
This guy again.
He's like a cockroach.
557
00:25:17,884 --> 00:25:19,783
[sirens wail]
558
00:25:19,785 --> 00:25:21,385
Sounds like
our last escape route
559
00:25:21,387 --> 00:25:22,987
Is about to disappear.
560
00:25:22,989 --> 00:25:25,155
I'm more comfortable
shooting this guy than the cops.
561
00:25:25,157 --> 00:25:26,156
[bullet ricochets]
562
00:25:26,158 --> 00:25:28,759
[cocks gun]
563
00:25:31,696 --> 00:25:32,796
[car approaching]
564
00:25:32,798 --> 00:25:33,864
[screams]
565
00:25:36,501 --> 00:25:39,136
[tires screeching]
[engine revs]
566
00:25:46,878 --> 00:25:48,746
You guys going my way?
567
00:25:53,618 --> 00:25:55,452
(man)
congressman was abducted
by a white male,
568
00:25:55,454 --> 00:25:57,288
6'3", dark hair, in suit.
569
00:25:57,290 --> 00:25:59,990
Be advised, suspect is armed
and extremely dangerous.
570
00:25:59,992 --> 00:26:01,492
Nice car, shaw.
571
00:26:01,494 --> 00:26:03,727
So how'd you know
we'd be there?
572
00:26:03,729 --> 00:26:06,130
I didn't...
Until five minutes ago.
573
00:26:06,132 --> 00:26:09,333
I got a call from root.
574
00:26:09,335 --> 00:26:10,334
So you're the one
we're saving?
575
00:26:10,336 --> 00:26:11,635
Yeah. Who are you?
576
00:26:11,637 --> 00:26:13,571
Right now
I'm the getaway driver.
577
00:26:13,573 --> 00:26:15,406
[laughs]
boy, this just gets worse.
578
00:26:15,408 --> 00:26:17,241
(reese)
cheer up, mac.
579
00:26:17,243 --> 00:26:19,143
You could be in the trunk with
the guy who wants to kill you.
580
00:26:19,145 --> 00:26:23,681
[man grunts,
banging in trunk]
581
00:26:35,694 --> 00:26:39,163
We can't go back.
It's too dangerous.
582
00:26:39,165 --> 00:26:41,765
I could try blasting
through the roadblock.
583
00:26:41,767 --> 00:26:43,934
(finch)
the term "blasting"
584
00:26:43,936 --> 00:26:46,770
Does not inspire
great confidence, ms. Shaw.
585
00:26:50,408 --> 00:26:52,943
Time to get some fresh air.
I'll get the guy in the trunk.
586
00:26:52,945 --> 00:26:56,246
Let's go.
587
00:26:56,248 --> 00:27:01,185
[indistinct chatter]
588
00:27:01,187 --> 00:27:03,520
Time to stretch your legs.
589
00:27:23,375 --> 00:27:24,642
All clear.
590
00:27:24,644 --> 00:27:27,645
Newspapers in the driveway,
mail piled up.
591
00:27:27,647 --> 00:27:29,113
Must be on vacation.
592
00:27:29,115 --> 00:27:31,782
Let's hope they decide
to stay another night.
593
00:27:31,784 --> 00:27:34,451
What now?
594
00:27:34,453 --> 00:27:35,986
Some answers.
595
00:27:41,793 --> 00:27:44,261
Look, I don't know how many
times I have to tell you.
596
00:27:44,263 --> 00:27:47,765
I haven't done anything
to make anybody wanna kill me.
597
00:27:47,767 --> 00:27:50,634
Well, until we determine
the reason
598
00:27:50,636 --> 00:27:52,403
That decima keeps
making attempts on your life,
599
00:27:52,405 --> 00:27:54,038
You'll have
to stay with us.
600
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:55,572
You have our decima
friend's phone?
601
00:27:55,574 --> 00:27:57,508
I pulled out the sim card.
602
00:27:57,510 --> 00:27:59,710
If you really wanna
protect me,
603
00:27:59,712 --> 00:28:01,512
Why don't you just
take me to the cops?
604
00:28:01,514 --> 00:28:02,980
Law enforcement
is no deterrent
605
00:28:02,982 --> 00:28:04,982
To the people coming
after you, congressman.
606
00:28:04,984 --> 00:28:07,384
This is insane.
607
00:28:07,386 --> 00:28:09,887
You've obviously done something
to attract their attention.
608
00:28:09,889 --> 00:28:11,722
Like what?
609
00:28:11,724 --> 00:28:13,557
Decima is
a private intelligence company
610
00:28:13,559 --> 00:28:17,594
Developing a large-scale
surveillance program--
611
00:28:17,596 --> 00:28:20,531
The type of program that
you've been vocally against.
612
00:28:20,533 --> 00:28:22,433
Along with half the congress.
So?
613
00:28:22,435 --> 00:28:24,201
But your position
on the rules committee
614
00:28:24,203 --> 00:28:27,271
Gives you the power
to alter or halt legislation.
615
00:28:27,273 --> 00:28:30,374
Have you sidelined anything that
would affect decima's plans?
616
00:28:30,376 --> 00:28:31,909
(mccourt)
no.
617
00:28:31,911 --> 00:28:33,844
I don't know anything
about that company
618
00:28:33,846 --> 00:28:35,279
Or why they would
wanna kill me.
619
00:28:35,281 --> 00:28:37,715
This is all
just a huge mistake.
620
00:28:37,717 --> 00:28:40,250
We're not getting
anywhere here.
621
00:28:40,252 --> 00:28:42,453
Maybe shaw's
having some luck.
622
00:28:45,523 --> 00:28:47,591
(shaw)
you can talk or bleed out.
623
00:28:47,593 --> 00:28:52,529
You help us,
we'll help you.
624
00:28:52,531 --> 00:28:54,364
Suit yourself, tough guy.
625
00:28:54,366 --> 00:28:56,200
Hope it's worth dying for.
626
00:28:56,202 --> 00:28:58,669
(finch)
that may not be necessary.
627
00:28:58,671 --> 00:29:01,772
I was able to get into his phone
through a key vulnerability
628
00:29:01,774 --> 00:29:04,341
In the sms encryption.
629
00:29:04,343 --> 00:29:07,010
I think we may have misread
this situation.
630
00:29:09,214 --> 00:29:11,448
"protect"?
631
00:29:11,450 --> 00:29:13,016
Seems we're not
the only ones concerned
632
00:29:13,018 --> 00:29:15,052
With the congressman's safety.
633
00:29:15,054 --> 00:29:18,355
(reese)
so who are you supposed
to be protecting mccourt from?
634
00:29:18,357 --> 00:29:20,624
[scoffs]
635
00:29:23,394 --> 00:29:26,630
I wasn't given
that information.
636
00:29:26,632 --> 00:29:29,666
But in the week
we've been watching him,
637
00:29:29,668 --> 00:29:33,403
The only ones who have taken
a shot at him are you.
638
00:29:41,045 --> 00:29:42,746
[sighs]
639
00:29:42,748 --> 00:29:45,048
You think maybe
I could get a coffee?
640
00:29:47,418 --> 00:29:50,654
Or some water
would be fine.
641
00:29:50,656 --> 00:29:53,223
Mr. Mccourt, you're sure
you have no knowledge of decima?
642
00:29:53,225 --> 00:29:54,825
I already answered that.
643
00:29:54,827 --> 00:29:57,494
Why do you keep beating
that drum?
644
00:29:57,496 --> 00:29:59,096
Because they're
protecting you.
645
00:29:59,098 --> 00:30:00,831
Protecting me?
646
00:30:00,833 --> 00:30:02,499
A minute ago you said
they were trying to kill me.
647
00:30:02,501 --> 00:30:04,735
I did.
648
00:30:04,737 --> 00:30:06,703
Something doesn't add up.
649
00:30:06,705 --> 00:30:08,438
Actually I think it might.
650
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,441
I looked into your finances
earlier today, congressman.
651
00:30:11,443 --> 00:30:12,843
You did what?
652
00:30:12,845 --> 00:30:14,778
I noticed
your stock portfolio,
653
00:30:14,780 --> 00:30:16,847
Up 20% over last year.
654
00:30:16,849 --> 00:30:18,182
What are you getting at?
655
00:30:18,184 --> 00:30:19,683
Your trading activities.
656
00:30:19,685 --> 00:30:21,919
Your portfolio is up 20%
due to trades
657
00:30:21,921 --> 00:30:23,754
You've made
in the last two weeks.
658
00:30:23,756 --> 00:30:27,925
Trades that have increased
in value by over 600%.
659
00:30:27,927 --> 00:30:29,459
So?
660
00:30:29,461 --> 00:30:31,361
So...
661
00:30:31,363 --> 00:30:33,964
Either you're the smartest
investor in washington,
662
00:30:33,966 --> 00:30:36,900
Or you're getting
some very good information.
663
00:30:36,902 --> 00:30:38,702
Inside information.
664
00:30:38,704 --> 00:30:40,470
I don't like
what you're implying.
665
00:30:40,472 --> 00:30:42,372
It's more than an implication,
congressman,
666
00:30:42,374 --> 00:30:44,908
And it'll become a call
to an s.E.C. Investigator I know
667
00:30:44,910 --> 00:30:47,945
Unless you're more truthful
with us.
668
00:30:50,148 --> 00:30:52,683
Okay.
669
00:30:55,486 --> 00:30:59,389
I know decima technologies.
670
00:30:59,391 --> 00:31:02,392
But they're not trying
to kill me.
671
00:31:02,394 --> 00:31:04,061
We have an understanding.
672
00:31:04,063 --> 00:31:05,696
What kind
of an understanding?
673
00:31:05,698 --> 00:31:08,498
They were looking
for a little legislative support
674
00:31:08,500 --> 00:31:10,567
For their new
surveillance program.
675
00:31:10,569 --> 00:31:12,369
Support?
676
00:31:12,371 --> 00:31:14,571
You've been leading the charge
against government surveillance.
677
00:31:14,573 --> 00:31:16,139
Course I have.
678
00:31:16,141 --> 00:31:17,574
'cause I realized
that the government
679
00:31:17,576 --> 00:31:19,509
Can't keep a secret.
680
00:31:19,511 --> 00:31:23,647
You look at, uh, prism
and this northern lights mess.
681
00:31:23,649 --> 00:31:25,682
What do you know
about decima's program?
682
00:31:25,684 --> 00:31:27,751
Not much really.
683
00:31:27,753 --> 00:31:30,687
Just that it's an alternative
to a government-run system.
684
00:31:30,689 --> 00:31:33,657
Which, at this point,
should make everybody happy.
685
00:31:33,659 --> 00:31:35,893
And in return
for your support,
686
00:31:35,895 --> 00:31:37,861
You're getting insider
stock tips.
687
00:31:37,863 --> 00:31:41,498
You're a couple of smart guys,
you know?
688
00:31:41,500 --> 00:31:43,166
Surely you understand
689
00:31:43,168 --> 00:31:45,769
That everything that happens
in washington is a deal.
690
00:31:45,771 --> 00:31:49,006
(reese)
and you're a deal maker.
691
00:31:49,008 --> 00:31:50,908
In case you didn't know,
692
00:31:50,910 --> 00:31:55,779
The business of governments
is business.
693
00:31:55,781 --> 00:31:59,483
[sirens blaring]
694
00:32:07,825 --> 00:32:09,927
They're moving grid to grid
through the neighborhood.
695
00:32:09,929 --> 00:32:11,395
We need to make a move.
696
00:32:21,205 --> 00:32:24,107
Greer is positioning samaritan
to replace the machine.
697
00:32:24,109 --> 00:32:25,776
Mccourt is helping decima.
698
00:32:25,778 --> 00:32:27,377
We've been looking at him
as a victim,
699
00:32:27,379 --> 00:32:29,613
But he's really
a perpetrator.
I'm not so sure.
700
00:32:29,615 --> 00:32:31,315
His involvement
is tangential at best,
701
00:32:31,317 --> 00:32:32,983
And he doesn't know
greer's intentions.
702
00:32:32,985 --> 00:32:34,785
But if he's not a victim
or a perp,
703
00:32:34,787 --> 00:32:36,520
Then why did the machine
give us his number?
704
00:32:36,522 --> 00:32:39,790
What is it we're supposed
to be stopping?
705
00:32:39,792 --> 00:32:42,225
I'm not sure we're supposed
to be stopping anything.
706
00:32:42,227 --> 00:32:44,861
Finch, you said mccourt could
speed up or halt legislation.
707
00:32:44,863 --> 00:32:46,964
Yes, he's in a unique position
to remove
708
00:32:46,966 --> 00:32:49,066
Any legislative roadblock
to samaritan.
709
00:32:49,068 --> 00:32:51,368
So without mccourt,
710
00:32:51,370 --> 00:32:53,603
Samaritan doesn't
get past congress.
711
00:32:53,605 --> 00:32:57,274
And greer wouldn't get access
to the nsa's surveillance feeds.
712
00:33:01,312 --> 00:33:03,647
Then that's why
we got his number.
713
00:33:03,649 --> 00:33:06,316
He is the victim.
714
00:33:06,318 --> 00:33:07,751
His life is in danger.
715
00:33:07,753 --> 00:33:09,119
But from who?
716
00:33:10,989 --> 00:33:13,290
Us.
717
00:33:18,129 --> 00:33:20,630
I think the machine
wants us to kill mccourt.
718
00:33:27,038 --> 00:33:28,205
John, think
about what you're saying.
719
00:33:28,207 --> 00:33:29,206
I have.
720
00:33:29,208 --> 00:33:30,941
Just because decima is not
721
00:33:30,943 --> 00:33:33,443
The threat to mccourt
doesn't mean that we must be.
722
00:33:33,445 --> 00:33:35,212
The machine is designed
to save lives, not take them.
723
00:33:35,214 --> 00:33:36,780
But could it?
724
00:33:36,782 --> 00:33:38,582
Could the machine
ever tell us to kill someone?
725
00:33:38,584 --> 00:33:41,284
Is it possible?
726
00:33:41,286 --> 00:33:44,254
It's conceivable.
727
00:33:44,256 --> 00:33:46,289
Well, how bad would
the situation have to be?
728
00:33:46,291 --> 00:33:48,091
Bad.
729
00:33:48,093 --> 00:33:50,127
It would have to see
that an individual's actions
730
00:33:50,129 --> 00:33:52,095
Could directly result
in the loss of others' lives.
731
00:33:52,097 --> 00:33:54,097
How many lives?
A dozen, a hundred?
732
00:33:54,099 --> 00:33:55,298
How many?
733
00:33:55,300 --> 00:33:56,700
A lot.
I'm not sure.
734
00:33:56,702 --> 00:33:57,934
I never dreamt
it would come to this.
735
00:33:57,936 --> 00:33:59,436
Well, it has.
736
00:33:59,438 --> 00:34:02,706
Your machine--
it sees something coming--
737
00:34:02,708 --> 00:34:04,941
Something bad--
and it wants us to stop it.
738
00:34:04,943 --> 00:34:07,811
I don't know.
You don't know that.
739
00:34:07,813 --> 00:34:09,646
Look, I've never
entirely trusted your machine,
740
00:34:09,648 --> 00:34:12,215
But you built it,
and I trust you.
741
00:34:12,217 --> 00:34:14,284
You're the one who said
we can't underestimate
742
00:34:14,286 --> 00:34:17,220
The threat of samaritan.
743
00:34:25,963 --> 00:34:29,299
Mr. Mccourt,
744
00:34:29,301 --> 00:34:31,334
You have to call off
your deal with decima.
745
00:34:31,336 --> 00:34:35,572
Their surveillance program
cannot be approved.
746
00:34:35,574 --> 00:34:38,508
What--what are you,
one of those privacy nut jobs?
747
00:34:38,510 --> 00:34:40,243
Is that
what this is about?
748
00:34:40,245 --> 00:34:43,814
With access to the government's
surveillance feeds,
749
00:34:43,816 --> 00:34:47,784
Decima will be able to acquire
any information,
750
00:34:47,786 --> 00:34:50,220
Any secret it desires,
751
00:34:50,222 --> 00:34:52,222
And sell it
to the highest bidder.
752
00:34:52,224 --> 00:34:54,424
And that would be
the United States government.
753
00:34:54,426 --> 00:34:56,126
Perhaps, for now.
754
00:34:56,128 --> 00:35:00,130
But unbridled access
will create
755
00:35:00,132 --> 00:35:03,233
Unlimited opportunities
for abuse.
756
00:35:03,235 --> 00:35:07,437
People will be ruined,
lives will be lost.
757
00:35:07,439 --> 00:35:10,574
The results will be nothing
short of catastrophic.
758
00:35:10,576 --> 00:35:14,111
These programs are always
gonna be controversial
759
00:35:14,113 --> 00:35:15,612
But also inevitable.
760
00:35:15,614 --> 00:35:18,949
People get up in arms
whenever they go public,
761
00:35:18,951 --> 00:35:22,119
But eventually
the noise dies down,
762
00:35:22,121 --> 00:35:27,390
Because the simple truth is
that people wanna be protected.
763
00:35:28,860 --> 00:35:31,828
They just don't
wanna know how.
764
00:35:34,799 --> 00:35:37,968
Oh, maybe I haven't offered you
the right incentive.
765
00:35:37,970 --> 00:35:39,336
So how much?
766
00:35:39,338 --> 00:35:41,104
Excuse me?
767
00:35:41,106 --> 00:35:44,774
To withdraw your support
for decima's program, how much?
768
00:35:44,776 --> 00:35:47,944
Hey, you know, I did this
to keep the country safe.
769
00:35:47,946 --> 00:35:49,946
And yeah, maybe I got
a little something for myself
770
00:35:49,948 --> 00:35:52,716
During the process.
771
00:35:52,718 --> 00:35:56,520
All that makes me
is good at what I do.
772
00:35:56,522 --> 00:36:00,457
I'm not calling off
the deal.
773
00:36:07,198 --> 00:36:10,734
Looks like we've got company--
s.W.A.T., feds, the works.
774
00:36:10,736 --> 00:36:13,036
Mr. Reese,
it was never my intention
775
00:36:13,038 --> 00:36:15,805
For people to be killed
because of the machine.
776
00:36:15,807 --> 00:36:18,141
What do you think happened
when it gave the government
777
00:36:18,143 --> 00:36:19,910
A terrorist number?
778
00:36:19,912 --> 00:36:21,945
What do you think
we used to do for a living?
779
00:36:21,947 --> 00:36:23,580
That man is not
a terrorist.
780
00:36:23,582 --> 00:36:26,216
He's just an opportunistic
and corrupt pawn.
781
00:36:26,218 --> 00:36:28,752
That doesn't make the threat
any less real.
782
00:36:28,754 --> 00:36:30,487
We are not assassins.
We protect people.
783
00:36:30,489 --> 00:36:33,390
Isn't that
what we're doing,
784
00:36:33,392 --> 00:36:37,160
Sacrificing the life of one
to save the lives of many?
785
00:36:37,162 --> 00:36:40,597
Shaw, help me out here.
786
00:36:40,599 --> 00:36:42,566
Six months ago,
I would've already put a bullet
787
00:36:42,568 --> 00:36:44,134
In that guy's head.
788
00:36:44,136 --> 00:36:45,969
But ever since
hanging around you guys,
789
00:36:45,971 --> 00:36:48,538
I've kind of
gotten used to saving people.
790
00:36:48,540 --> 00:36:52,909
But we've only been able to
do that by trusting the machine.
791
00:36:52,911 --> 00:36:57,314
And if it's saying
that this guy's gotta go,
792
00:36:57,316 --> 00:37:01,351
Well, I think
we should still trust it.
793
00:37:01,353 --> 00:37:04,254
John, I urge you to consider
the consequences of this action.
794
00:37:04,256 --> 00:37:07,390
There are consequences
to not acting.
795
00:37:07,392 --> 00:37:09,926
Like with simmons
and joss.
796
00:37:09,928 --> 00:37:11,494
Don't do this.
797
00:37:11,496 --> 00:37:14,030
If we let him walk out
that door, decima wins.
798
00:37:14,032 --> 00:37:15,498
Samaritan will go live.
799
00:37:15,500 --> 00:37:17,567
It's a possibility
but not a certainty.
800
00:37:17,569 --> 00:37:20,070
There may be another way.
We've never been here.
801
00:37:20,072 --> 00:37:23,607
But are you really willing
to take that risk?
802
00:37:23,609 --> 00:37:26,876
Harold?
803
00:37:26,878 --> 00:37:29,279
Since we started this,
things have changed.
804
00:37:29,281 --> 00:37:30,880
We've changed.
805
00:37:30,882 --> 00:37:33,850
But the mission, our purpose,
has always been constant--
806
00:37:33,852 --> 00:37:36,453
To save lives.
807
00:37:36,455 --> 00:37:40,790
If that's changed somehow,
if we're in a place now
808
00:37:40,792 --> 00:37:44,861
Where the machine is asking us
to commit murder...
809
00:37:47,431 --> 00:37:50,533
That's a place
I can't go.
810
00:37:50,535 --> 00:37:53,436
I'm afraid
this is where I get off.
811

My colleagues and I

24 hours,
quick, clean.
839
00:40:14,312 --> 00:40:16,346
Then we shut it down.
840
00:40:16,348 --> 00:40:20,984
No guns, no police,
just information.
841
00:40:20,986 --> 00:40:22,719
What kind of information?
842
00:40:22,721 --> 00:40:24,988
If the nsa provides us
843
00:40:24,990 --> 00:40:27,891

We'll never get this
