Numb3rs (2005–2010): Season 5, Episode 15 - Guilt Trip - full transcript

WOMAN (over earpiece):
Suspect approaching location.

Suspect entering building.

DAVID (over earpiece):
Suspect plus two

on the move.

ROBIN: Would you
please identify that man?

DAVID: Damian Lake.

And is he in this
courtroom right now?

Let the record
show that the witness

identified the defendant.

And then what happened?

Baby, there you are.



Where's our friend?

ROBIN: Why was the
FBI surveilling Mr. Lake?

NIKKI: Damian Lake owns

Consultants International,
which operates a fleet

of cargo planes suspected in
the transfer of illegal weapons

to elements in 16 countries,

including Somalia,
Iraq, and Afghanistan.

And why was the FBI at the
Crown Prince Hotel that day?

We set up a meeting
between Mr. Lake

and an undercover agent.

Lake, I'm Jack Higgins.

Well, if we're not gonna deal,

this hotel has an excellent spa,

so it's a win for me either way.



Jack, heard you got your
start supplying the IRA

when the Libyan
pipeline ran dry in '97.

Opportunity knocked.

Fortunately in this business,

when one market dries
up, there's always another.

Erica Daniels was
an FBI informant.

She was also Damian
Lake's girlfriend.

Why did she agree
to work with the FBI?

COLBY: Her brother
served two tours

in Afghanistan.

And the idea that
a weapon Lake sold

to Al Qaeda might be used to
kill him was intolerable to her.

And what was her
role in the operation?

To present me as a buyer

looking to purchase
missile guidance chips.

LAKE: How'd you find me?

You don't look up fire-and-
forget guidance systems

in the Yellow Pages.

Viktor Tramasco.

Viktor.

It's a terrible thing what
happened in Barranquilla.

COLBY: Fortunate
thing about Viktor's death

is it was quick.

FARC rebels
would've tortured him.

Yeah.

Well, the other good thing is

you don't have to pay
Viktor's finder's fee.

Would've paid it.

Anti-tank missiles
without guidance chips

are pretty damn worthless.

The product is delivered.

LAKE: Plug-and-play trackers

for your PGM148 Javelins.

He's no Vanna, but
I'd like to buy 'em.

I take cash.

You look relieved.

What?

What do you mean?

We got a deal or not?

Wait a minute. There's a
problem. Okay, B-Team 1, go.

Let's go. Move in.

Everybody, come on.

Take a walk.

DAVID: The product is leaving.

I'm on it.

Everybody watch your line.

You don't want to do that.

Please, shut up.

I lost Fox.

DAVID: FBI. Put your gun down.

DON: He had Ms.
Daniels at gunpoint.

Did you actually
see the defendant

hold the gun on Ms. Daniels?

No, it was

behind her back.

So, all you really saw

was the defendant
standing with Ms. Daniels.

Easy... take it easy.

(gunshot, people screaming)

Put it down! Put it down!

Put it down!

(screaming continues)

(gunshot)

(elevator chiming)

Don't move. She grabbed
the gun. It went off.

Get over here.

Take him.

We should get her some help.

DEFENSE ATTORNEY: My client was
there that day to meet a business contact.

The FBI claims he was
there to sell contraband,

but the supposed
item was not found,

and there is no evidence
that it even exists.

And there is no

evidence that my client
harmed Erica Daniels.

He was trying to protect her

from what appeared to
him to be an armed robbery.

FBI agents created
these circumstances,

failed to identify
themselves appropriately,

creating panic and chaos.

Ms. Daniels,
fearing for her life,

struggled with the one person
who was trying to help her.

Her death is a tragedy

that should be laid at the
feet of those responsible:

the FBI agents at the scene.

Erica Daniels was the one person

willing to testify
against Damian Lake.

And now Mr. Lake
wants you to believe

that by some
cruel twist of fate,

Erica was accidentally killed

just as federal agents
were closing in on him.

There's no twist.

There's no fate.

Just cruelty.

This case is exactly
what it looks like.

It's murder.

CHARLIE: What do you see?

It's a bowl of water.

Obviously. But there's more
here than meets the eye.

See, math

is a universally effective tool

that can transcend
any box or bowl.

It also allows us
to see or define

and quantify things that
aren't readily observable.

Hydrophilic spheres.

They start as hard crystals,

but when you drop
them in the water...

they expand to
300 times their size.

And because the sphere
crystals are mostly water,

they become invisible
once submerged,

due to an identical index
of refraction with the liquid.

You see, our tendency
is to see what we expect

to see.

Blue sky.

White light.

A clear bowl of water.

But math teaches
us to expect more

hidden beneath the surface.

JUDGE: Has the
jury reached a verdict?

We have, Your Honor.

Will the defendant please rise.

In the case

of United States v. Lake

on the count of
first-degree murder,

the jury finds the defendant...

not guilty.

(gavel bangs, gallery murmuring)

(chuckling)

I hope you're thinking
of sharing the jackpot.

I'm not predicting the lottery.

And for the last time, I can't.

I know you always say you
can't, but I think you won't.

It's a spatial
dynamic jury model.

It's a statistical
model of jury behavior.

Was it developed by 12
angry mathematicians?

I'm trying to figure out how
Lake's jury reached its verdict

using the sliding variable scale

that allows for
multiple parameters

affecting the
dynamics of voting,

such as the weight a juror
places on the votes of others,

uh, conviction floor,
acquittal ceiling.

A simple "yes"
would have sufficed.

Hey, listen, when
you're done with that,

would you mind looking
at something for me?

Yeah, sure, what
is it? My profile.

I'm joining Facebook.

Well, I figured,

since I'm back in college,

I can hook up with
some old friends,

you know, maybe
even make new ones,

people with similar
interests to mine.

Interest in what,
High School Musical?

No, no, come on,
Charlie. It's not just for kids.

I mean, a lot of different
kind of people are on the site.

No, I know, you're right.

In fact, there's over 100
million people on that site.

That's what makes
the odds of finding

any one person pretty high.

All right, so,

what should I put on my profile

so that the right
people can find me?

Well, just lots of
specifics about yourself

so that the Web site's algorithm

can match you against
a range of terms.

All right, like what?
Like your interest

in, uh, arts and crafts
design, green engineering,

koi fish... and don't forget

one-dish recipes
featuring Gruyère cheese

and/or ground turkey.

That comment about my
cooking has just bought you

one entire week
of turkey au gratin.

COLBY: Damian Lake
killed Erica Daniels,

practically in front of us.

So, why couldn't we
convince 12 people?

Okay, I want options.

Let's go.

Well, double jeopardy

protects Lake from a mistrial.

NIKKI: Yeah, on
the murder charge.

What about RICO action?

COLBY: Lake's
company was created

as a cutout for the British
Secret Intelligence Service

to move weapons
around the world.

When he retired, he
kept the company intact

and freelanced.

Except for the selling any
weapon to any buyer part,

company is legit. DAVID:
MI6 taught this guy well.

I mean, he's only gotten better
with time. DON: I don't care

about any of that; I want
to find a way to get him.

For what? For whatever
we can make stick.

MAN: I was on the
other side of the world

when Erica was killed.

She was worried
about me over there.

I was always the little
brother she had to take care of.

She was proud of you.

She thought she could
make the world a safer place

by stopping one gun runner?

COLBY: No, she thought

it would make you safer,

make a lot of men serving

our country safer.

ROBIN: When she
realized what kind of man

Lake was, she...

she tried to do the right thing.

My sister made a lot
of mistakes in her life.

I didn't think

trusting the government
to protect her

would be one of them.

I just keep going
over it in my head:

the trial, what I
did, what I said.

You ran a good case, you know?

I mean, I would
tell you if you didn't.

I lost.

No, you didn't. We lost.

Erica's brother is the
one who really lost.

It just doesn't make sense.

I mean, we had the
guy. We had him.

CHARLIE: You're right.

It doesn't make sense.

So what we're looking at here

is a spatial dynamic jury model.

It's a visual rendering of a
jury's deliberation process.

This is supposed to tell us how
the jury reached their verdict?

Not how,

but whether the verdict was

a probable or improbable outcome

for this particular jury.

You can predict how
people think using math?

Using probabilities.

Now think of a standard coin
flip, two possible outcomes:

heads or tails.

Normally, this is
considered a random event,

impossible to predict.

But using probability
calculations,

you can make an educated
guess by factoring in such variables

as velocity of the coin,
its weight, flips per second,

the time and distance traveled.

Knowing these variables
shifts the odds in your favor.

You apply this to a jury,

and it increases
your understanding

of how a particular
outcome was reached.

Now, due to factors including
the quality of evidence

and witness testimony,

the probability

that Lake's jury would
convict is overwhelming.

So it was rigged?

No, the jury was anonymous.

Only the judge
knew their identities.

They were sequestered
and guarded. That's not

gonna stop him; you
know, this is the kind

of guy that thinks he can
get away with anything.

Well, there is the QJS.

Uh,

QJS...

Qualitative Jury
Software, right?

That's right.

Courts rely on it

to facilitate the juror
selection process.

Yeah, that software uses

a pseudo-random number
generator called the Mersenne Twister

to assemble lists
of potential jurors

from DMV records
and voter registration.

That software has access
to their names, addresses,

and Social Security numbers.

And who has access to it?

Any technical questions you have

about the court's software,

you're going to have to ask the
company who makes it: JuryFind.

You're a court clerk.

You don't keep an eye
on all the operations here?

I keep an eye out for problems,

and JuryFind on speed dial.

Their technicians
are the only ones

with clearance to
access the system.

Any problems lately?

Let's see...

It always summons
people who hate jury duty.

When was the last time

they sent someone out here?

About six weeks ago.

A guy installed

a software patch.

That's right
before Lake's trial.

Do you know the tech?

I know he cusses in Vulcan.

Uh, yeah.

He had ID,

forgot his parking pass.

Dude's car got
towed from the lot.

COLBY: Remember his name?

No, but I remember

suppressing the urge to
ask, "What would Spock do?"

(chuckles)

We're gonna need the name
of the tow truck company.

Got that one on speed dial, too.

Mr. Lake's

defense team hired my
services as a jury consultant.

In other words,

you helped Damian Lake's
attorneys select a jury

that would return a favorable
verdict for their client.

Jury consulting is part of
the adversarial process.

Check my record.

You'll see that I work
for the prosecution

as often as I have
for the defense.

It seems to me that
everything you tell them,

they could get from
the questionnaire.

Ah, but a questionnaire
can't tell them

that jurors' attitudes are
much stronger indicators of bias

than their demographic...

Or that attitudes towards rape

are better verdict
predictors than gender.

Is that your scientific opinion,

or the way you convince
rapists to pay your fee?

(chuckles)

I use calculated judgment

to uncover what people
don't want to admit...

on paper or to themselves.

I'm an observer,
Agent Betancourt.

You want to know what I see?

You dress like a Fed,
but you walk like a cop.

You've had training
in debate and rhetoric,

which leads me to guess
that you jumped to the Bureau

with, let's see, a law degree?

You have much loftier

ambitions than your
colleagues even know.

I'm thinking... politics.

(chuckles)

Shining a light
on other people...

That's a good way to
stay hidden in the shadows.

You let me know
when you run for office.

You've got my vote.

You really should consider

something a bit
more fuel-efficient.

Hey, you know,
your gate was open.

Let me guess:

this is where you tell
me that it's not over,

that you're going to find
another way to put me in jail.

Well, you got half a dozen
federal agencies on your ass.

It's just a matter of time.

I'm haunted by my
inescapable fate.

Happy now?

Just know: when you go down,

it's going to be for killing

Erica Daniels.

That's a legal impossibility.

Something called
"double jeopardy."

Maybe you've heard of it.

You ever hear of a mistrial?

(sighs)

Maybe, uh, you and
the DA did a bad job.

I'm a innocent man,

free to leave the country,
go wherever I want.

(engine starts)

There's a world of places
where you can't touch me.

ALAN: Hey, Charlie.

You want to grab lunch?

I'm meeting an old buddy from
high school, believe it or not.

Huh, well, I kind of have
plans with Amita, Dad,

but it sounds like this
social networking process

is working for you.

Yeah, yeah,
surprisingly well so far.

I wonder if anthropologists
studying community networks

in southern Africa imagined that

their work would lead to
"friending" and Scrabulous.

It's like the space program.
It gave us Velcro, Tang.

So, uh, how's your research

going on this jury
tampering thing?

Well, my analysis indicates
that there's a good probability

that the jury's verdict
was tampered with.

But, uh, probability

is not enough for a judge.

You know I can't blame Don

for taking this one so hard.

It's the system
that let them down.

The system's not flawless.

No, it's not.

I mean, once you
involve human judgment,

you're bound to get mistakes.

Well, anyway.

Unless...

unless instead of
always mopping up,

you keep the mess
from ever happening.

How would you go about that?

I don't know.

But, uh, probability can
be used as a predictive tool.

Maybe you can alter

the circumstances

so the potential crime is
less likely to take place.

The company that towed
the software tech's car

from the court's parking lot
ID'd him as Robert Logan.

Now, I checked with JuryFind.

They have no record
of a Robert Logan.

All right, so if he
doesn't work for JuryFind,

who does he work for? Exactly.

Mr. Logan, FBI.

Just once, I wish there
were a surprise party

behind one of these
ominously open doors.

Well, David, looks like
there was a surprise.

Just wasn't for us.

COLBY: Robert Logan's
done time for e-crime.

ID theft, phishing.

He's a hacker-for-hire.

He broke into the system,
gained access to the jury pool.

Got to figure whoever hired him

killed him to
cover their tracks.

DON: We can't
connect him to Lake?

DAVID: Techs are dusting
the scene and we pulled

his bank and his phone records.

All right, let me know.

Hey, um, I want to
run something by you.

Yeah? I'm putting

for the primary relief
supervisor's position.

So when Don's not
around, you'd be in charge.

You asking me

if I'm cool with
you being my boss?

Well, I'm not asking
you, you know, I just...

I want you to hear
it from me first.

I think it's great, man.

Have you told Don?

No. Not yet.

Hey, you do know that
I have the high score

in the office at the
combat pistol range, right?

Yeah. Why?

Just something you
should keep in mind

in case you try and order
me to get your coffee.

Hey.

Fox Carter, Lake's #2.

Mm-hmm. We've been watching him,

you know, tracking his
contacts, trying to see

if he and Lake are still in business
together. Yeah, what's he up to?

Not much.

Those chips he was
supposed to deliver

the day we arrested Lake,

they recently showed
up on the black market

in Sudan.

Ah, damn.

Is there any point to
staying on Fox? Yeah.

If Lake disappears
like he's threatening,

might be the only
way we find him.

Your dead hacker, Robert Logan,

created an
administrator password

allowing him to bypass
security measures.

Once we break it,

we can track his activity
in the court's software.

Got it.

Logan accessed the jury pool...

Their names, addresses.

So much for an anonymous jury.

Yeah, Logan got
their identities,

but we got something better.

Yeah, like what?

The jury filled
out questionnaires

prior to the trial.

I can use that data

to calculate profile scores,

which would give us an
insight into the jury's dynamic.

Hey, Robin.

Hi, Alan.

Come in.

Uh, Donnie's not here.

Uh, no, he called to
say that he would be late,

but I was already on my way.

Would you like
something to drink?

I would love that.

How do you take your coffee?

With a red wine chaser.

I don't think a lady
should drink alone.

Whenever I wanted
the boys to open up

and tell me what
was on their mind,

I used to bribe
them with ice cream.

Oh, yeah? What do you do now?

Actually, ice cream still works.

You know, as a prosecutor,

I'm used to
fighting for victims.

And I'm used to
winning that fight.

Erica Daniels is gone...

and her killer walks free.

I failed her...

twice. You know,

you and Donnie hold yourselves
to such perfect standards.

We all know the
system's imperfect.

I mean, um, innocent
people are convicted;

guilty people are acquitted.

That doesn't make it okay.

No, of course not.

Ah, my favorite future senator.

You here to ask for a
campaign contribution?

These phone records
show that Robert Logan

called your office several times

in the past few months.

Who is Robert Logan?

Computer programmer

with a record of hacking.

Now he's a dead guy

with a bullet in his brain.

We've connected
Logan to malfeasance

affecting the Lake trial.

What did you speak

to Robert Logan about?

I don't recall any conversations

with a Robert Logan,

and even if I did, if he was
involved with the Lake case,

as a consultant for the defense,

I'm covered by
attorney-client privilege.

Not if you broke the
law and aided in a plot

to tamper with
the jury, you're not.

(chuckles)

Now, that's a pretty

wild claim.

Can you prove
that? Working on it.

You call yourself an observer.

What's your observation
of Damian Lake tell you?

What are you driving at?

Have you noticed

how people close to Lake
sometimes turn up dead?

ROBIN: The judge has reviewed
the evidence of software hacking

into the Qualitative
Jury Software.

He has agreed to release the
names of the jury to the FBI.

So you think we got a mistrial?

No, not yet.

I mean, we don't
know what, if anything,

Logan did with the information

that he obtained
from the system.

Charlie's all over it.

I can't go to the
judge with an equation.

(chuckling): Yeah,
welcome to my life.

And, uh, and
these data sets here

factor in information gathered
from the questionnaires.

What do the profile
scores tell us?

This is probable
juror bias here.

Okay, so 47 and below

indicates jurors that
were pro-prosecution,

52 and higher indicates

jurors that are pro-defense,

and in between means
that their bias was negligible.

According to this,

six jurors leaned towards
conviction, two to acquittal,

and four in the middle.

That's right. How are
you measuring bias?

With SJS.

Scientific Jury Selection?

Yeah, SJS operates under the
assumption that demographics

predict attitudes;

attitudes predict verdicts.

Sounds like profiling.

Which, by definition,

presupposes
statistical analysis.

I mean, it always comes
down to group dynamics.

It's kind of like,
uh, herding cattle.

Back in the Old West,

they'd have ten cowboys
to drive thousands of cattle.

Instead of trying to
control the entire herd,

the cowboys would
pick a lead steer

and the rest of the
herd would follow.

They manipulated
thousands by controlling one.

So, to determine
the leader on a jury,

SJS factors in characteristics

such as age, gender,

education, occupation.

Your analysis has left
out the alternate juror.

Juror number seven was excused

for a death in the family,

and the alternate
juror took her place.

Who died and how?

The juror's husband was
killed in a car accident.

Why, do you think there's
something more to it?

Given the parameters
of this case,

I'd say there's a
high probability.

WOMAN: They
look like their father.

According to the CHP,

the investigating officer ruled

your husband's accident
as a single-car wreck.

With me on that jury,

Paul had to juggle
work, the house, the girls.

Maybe he was
overwhelmed, in a hurry...

Had he been in
accidents before? He'd had

a few tickets in the past,

but not since the
girls were born.

Do you have children, Agent?

Uh, no, no, ma'am.

Kids change you.

From the moment they're
born, you look at life differently.

Parents want to be around

for their children,
as long as they can.

ALAN: You know, Robin
stopped by last night.

She's really very upset
about this Lake case.

Yeah, well, she and Don
are blaming themselves

for getting Erica
Daniels killed.

Well, I know, but
they didn't kill her.

It was Damian Lake.

That's the problem with
a lot of law enforcement.

You know, it's
messy; it's reactive.

Innocent people
can get in the way.

So, are you still trying to
find a preemptive approach?

You know, Dad,

it's like a doctor in an ER
trying to find better ways

to treat patients

that have been thrown
through car windshields.

The breakthrough
isn't better medical care;

it's seat belts.

I am tired of treating
the symptoms.

I want to find a way
to attack the problem.

Don, the CHP's report on
Paul Montgomery's car accident.

Turns out there
are trace elements

of paint found at the scene
that didn't match his car.

What, they didn't follow
up? No, they were swamped

and they had no reason
to suspect foul play.

Yeah, well, I do.

So, the judge's record lists

the alternate juror

as one Justin Cerf.

Just ran his social.

Turns out it was stolen

from a deceased man in Norco.

What, you get on a jury
with a fake ID? Yeah,

though first he
got in the jury pool.

And then he got on the jury

after Arlene Montgomery's
husband was killed.

Lake needs an open slot,
kills Montgomery's husband

to make it happen.

All right, I want
him in custody.

We can't arrest Lake

until the judge
grants a mistrial.

All right, I'll call
Robin. I don't care

what it takes, just
get him in here now.

FBI!

WOMAN: ¿Quiénes son ustedes?

No pueden estar aquí.

FBI, señora, por favor calmese.

Estamos buscando

a Damian Lake.

Se fue.

¿Adónde?

A-A Costa Rica.

Yeah, yeah, I got that part.

COLBY: Hey, Don.

So Lake chartered a private
plane to Costa Rica yesterday.

Interpol issued a green notice.

Agents have his photo.

They're tailing known associates

and, uh, surveilling
places he frequents.

All right, pick up Fox Carter.

Lake's lieutenant? Yeah, I mean,

he might know
where he is, right?

What's up with the mistrial?

It was granted 20 minutes ago.

That's great.

All right, guys.

Where are we at
on the fake juror?

He had a state-issued
driver's license

under his fake name,
so we pulled that ID photo

to run it through
facial recognition.

Robert Logan hacked the software

and planted Cerf

into the system.

High-tech jury tampering.

Yeah, and I reviewed
Cerf's questionnaire.

I mean, this guy
methodically presented himself

as the perfect candidate
for the prosecution.

He's got the advanced degree,
the brother in the military.

He was a victim
of home invasion.

So if you look at the
questionnaire as a test,

this guy knew all the
answers beforehand.

Lake had to make sure
he was appealing to Robin,

as she had a say in whether
or not he was impaneled.

So either

Cerf had knowledge of
Scientific Jury Selection

or someone coached him.

Somebody like a jury consultant.

Logan's phone
records... Numerous calls

to Mitch Langford's office.

Oh, so he's right
in the middle of it.

Let's get serious on him, right?

Don, you got a second?

Yeah, what's up? I put in

to be your primary
relief supervisor.

Okay.

Well, uh, to, to
complete the application,

the career board needs a letter
of recommendation from you.

Yeah, I know what they need.

Still looking to sell those
chips for Damian Lake?

Fox Carter,

always leaving the party early.

Aw, come on, guys.

Why don't we take a
look in that white van

over there? Maybe
we'll find ourselves

some illegal firearms, huh?

Go look in the van if you want.

You're going to find
a whole lot of nothing.

Then what are you
doing here? I'm trying

to meet a guy who's
supposed to set me up

with some... what I
would call merchandise,

but you might consider stolen

electronic goods.

Can't arrest me
for being stood up.

That's my life these days 'cause
nobody's doing business with me.

Ah, boo-hoo.

Tell you what. We
need one thing from you.

Where's Lake?

Where's Lake?

Would I be out here looking
to meet some low-life fence

if I was still in business
with Damian Lake?

You're his #2; you know

where he is. You don't get it.

He dropped his local
network... all of us.

Burned a lot of people...
Bagged out on deals,

stiffed buyers. He's gone. Put
your hands behind your back.

Come on, really? Unless
you got something to give,

we still like you for the stuff

you did back when you
were working with Lake.

I'll tell you one thing
you might not know.

Yeah? We're all ears.

Lake did something to
mess with the jury on his case.

Yeah, like what exactly?

I don't know, but something.

He said he wasn't going to go
to jail; he was positive of that.

He give you any specifics?

No, he didn't exactly...

Wrong answer.

Oh, not cool.

CHARLIE: You ever
consider conceiving

of a new way to do your job?

(sighing): All the time, man,
but you're talking to a guy

who's spent his whole
career in the backseat.

FBI is a top-down organization,

you know, and no one is
looking to me for suggestions.

Well, Don values you.

He doesn't say it much,

but you can take my word for it.

(chuckling): I appreciate that,

but it's his word I need.

For what?

Personal work stuff

I probably shouldn't be
talking to his brother about.

All right, fair enough.

All right,

now, Lake put Cerf on this jury

to influence others, right?

He probably used
threats, bribes,

but on all 11 jurors
and nobody talked?

Well, Lake didn't
need all of them.

Well, he needed a
unanimous vote, though.

But a consistent minority
is often more influential

than a majority.

Uh... I'm usually one for
drinking the math Kool-Aid,

but that doesn't sound right.

(chuckling): All right,
look at it this way.

My dad just joined Facebook.

Really?

Yeah, I know, but
that Web site relies

on people who have a high SNP...

Social networking potential...

To expand its user base.

So these are people
who are known

for their ability to
exert their influence

on other people,

like tastemakers
and style leaders,

what Michael Lewis
calls "mavens.”

Successful marketing
campaigns target these people.

So...

a few key people on the
jury could influence the others,

and Cerf would know

which ones to pick?

Langford, as a jury consultant,

would know how to run an
analysis to select those people,

just like my model
is doing right now.

Uh, in fact it's quite
close to identifying

which jurors were
his likely targets,

the ones chosen

to turn the entire jury.

Uh, there it is.

Linda Parker and
Roy Detchemendy.

Okay, so, uh, Linda Parker.

She's a single
mother, homemaker,

so she's a unifier.

And, uh,

Roy, Roy Detchemendy.

He is the personnel director

for a large
financial institution.

He's educated.

He's a communicator.

And it's highly probable

that these two jurors plus Cerf

were the influential ones
that led the entire group.

My client will talk if he's
guaranteed immunity.

COLBY: Ms. Parker,
we can protect you,

but you have to tell
us what happened.

When I got the summons, it
couldn't have been worse timing.

I had just lost my job.

I was facing foreclosure.

One night at the hotel,

somebody slipped an
envelope under my door.

Pictures of my children
with bull's-eyes on their faces.

On the back were two words.

"Not guilty."

Written next

to my bank's routing number

and the money I needed
to keep my house.

LINDA: There were three of us

who pushed for the acquittal.

Were they being
threatened, as well?

I didn't ask.

I didn't know who to trust.

We were being guarded
and sequestered.

If they could get to me,
they could get to my children.

DAVID: What can you tell me

about Justin Cerf?

He's okay, I guess, friendly.

You guys talk about
anything personal?

We all kept it
very professional.

Except, some of the
other jurors teased him.

About what?

Justin had a thing
for the delivery girl

from the deli where
we ordered lunch.

Flirted with her a lot.

Uh, juror guy.

Yeah, I remember him.

Chicken salad on rye.

Did he ask for your number?

Well...

And did you give it to him?

Well, I don't go
for chicken salad.

More of a roast
beef kind of girl.

Listen, if he tries

to contact you,
just give us a call.

Oh, well, uh, if it's
contact you want...

I hung onto the number.

I mean,

just because I don't
go for chicken salad

doesn't mean chicken
salad don't go for me.

Thank you.

So, the phone number
comes back to Gregg Silver,

but the DMV photo
matches Justin Cerf.

Can we get an address?

Yeah.

Hey, man, let me
ask you something.

Yeah.

I seem like a roast
beef kind of guy to you?

I won't discuss
another man's meat.

G...

I think it's G.

Gregg Silver?

Hey, stop right there!

Hey!

How about we talk
about it inside, all right?

(grunts) We can discuss it

inside.

Listen, man, you're
gonna get yourself

killed out here, okay?

Hey, buddy, come on now.

You got 40...

It's a long way down!

How about you go back inside

and we talk

about it inside?

You want to talk
about something?

I'm a great listener!

(grunts)

You trying to get
yourself killed?

I'm dead either way.

I didn't know what
I was hired to do.

I just did what I was told.

Well, you're a diversified
con man, I'll give you that.

Multiple convictions
for fraud: mail, phone...

I don't hurt people.

Hmm.

Well, lots of people
got hurt in this case.

I don't know
anything about that.

Look, all I care about

is what you did while
you were on that jury.

I listened to the evidence.

I deliberated with
the other jurors.

I cast a vote.

Same vote as everybody else.

Why you singling me out?

Because

you created a fake identity,
went along with a plan

to put that fake
person onto this jury.

And that much we can prove.

That's a serious felony.

Talking to you doesn't
get me anything.

Okay, if you've got
nothing to say to us,

we'll just put you
back out on the street,

make sure everybody
knows you were in here.

You can go hang out with
your buddy Robert Logan.

Oh, actually, you can't.

He's dead.

What the hell are you thinking?

I don't want to
end up like Logan.

You won't.

You just make sure I
never see your face again.

How about my face?

Turn around.

Now, there you go.

(handcuffs clicking)

Oh. Round two?

This isn't a game.

Oh, sure it is.

Well, you and I look at the
justice system differently.

We are products of
that system, you and I.

You're a prosecutor.

You try to predict what
the defense will do;

you attack; you counterattack;

you hide things that
might damage your case;

you try to take advantage of
your opponent's weaknesses...

I don't break the rules.

Rules?

Wow.

Now, you're
admitting it's a game

without even realizing it.

(chuckles)

We're reviewing recent

money transfers into
and out of your accounts.

Silver's talked.

You were the mastermind
behind the scheme, but the guy

that paid for it is gone, so
now it's all coming down on you.

Two murders,
dozen felony charges.

That's life in prison
without parole.

Hmm.

Unless you answer one
question, and you answer it right.

Where is Damian Lake?

And don't tell me
that he's in Costa Rica,

'cause we know that he's not.

I don't know. I don't.

Well, show us how he paid you.

Every record, every
bank routing number.

That won't help you.

He-He had everything
encrypted, untraceable.

Well, maybe he's not as
smart as he thinks he is.

Okay, so, what do you got?

The activity in Langford's
account is encrypted,

in addition to being routed
through numerous overseas banks.

It makes it hard to track.

But it's not impossible.

So, what you're
looking at is a worldwide,

financial messaging network

which links over
9,000 institutions

in 200 countries.

Its database routes over
11 million transactions daily.

What, you're gonna
find Lake in all this?

We're using encrypted material
from Langford's accounts

which will get us

the bank identifier code

from which Lake
made all of his transfers.

Well, I don't understand.
Isn't the whole thing designed

to stop you from doing that?

Charlie here's got
the NSA hookup.

DON: Oh, no.

Who do I owe in D.C. for this?

It's okay. I called in a favor.

Oh.

(beeping)

Here's what we're looking for.

The first four characters

are the bank code,
the next two are

the country code, followed
by the branch code.

What's AW? CHARLIE: Aruba.

So, pack sunscreen.

Just leave it on the table.

When she grabbed
the gun, it went off.

WOMAN: Not guilty.

DON: Just know,
when you go down,

it's gonna be for
killing Erica Daniels.

It just keeps on
coming, doesn't it?

Well, that's the politics
of the job, isn't it, Senator?

Langford said that, not me.

Yeah, but you
didn't deny it, right?

Is that true, Betancourt?

Look, all I'm saying
is, in 20 years,

I don't aspire to be at
this desk doing paperwork.

Or looking

at your two mugs.

(laughs)

Yeah, well, in 20 minutes,

I aspire to be picking
up a hot delivery.

The sandwich girl?

Hey, roast beef
works. Why fight it?

Hey, uh, Sinclair...

I heard rumors that
you're a man with plans.

Gonna be running
this office one day?

Have no idea where you
heard something like that.

Bad, awful rumor.

You should check your sources.

Well, my sources
are pretty good.

Hi.

How you doing?

How was your flight?

It was good.

How's he doing?

Oh, he's grateful

that Lake's not gonna get
away with murdering his sister,

but it doesn't change
what happened.

He's just lost.

So am I.

Nah. Can't ever be lost.

Someone's already
marked the way.

It's just something
called halakha.

It's from Scripture.

You know, it means "the path."

I don't know.

I find comfort in it.

Come here.

You know, I never
told anyone this,

but I almost dropped
out of law school.

No way.

There was this lecture that I
heard on the philosophy of law.

Nietzsche argued that
real justice cannot exist

in a society where there
are differing levels of power;

that the powerful will always

exploit the weak.

But I stayed.

I need to help even the fight.

Yeah?

Think it's possible?

ALAN: Hey, come on, Charlie.

What are you doing?

You're gonna stay
out here all night?

Maybe.

I thought

the case was all
wrapped up. It was. It is.

Taking one
criminal off the street

isn't gonna solve the problem.

Well, it's a lot better than
leaving him out there, isn't it?

Yeah, well, there's
always another,

or ten, to take his place.

Oh, I see, and so,

now your attempt is to try
to use math to prevent crime.

Is that realistic, Charlie?

I don't know.

But I feel like

I've been putting
Band-Aids on bullet holes.

And I want

to find a way to
stop the bullet.
