The Mentalist (2008–2015): Season 7, Episode 8 - The Whites of His Eyes - full transcript
Jane worries for Lisbon's safety when the team puts itself in the line of fire to protect the witness in a murder investigation from a skilled assassin.
Ah, there you are,
mr. Lydon.
See you found the place okay.
It's nice to meet you.
Full disclosure,
we're not turnkey yet,
And I'm in big trouble
if anyone finds out
I met you here.
But brochures couldn't
do this justice,
Am I right?
It's a work in progress,
But that's why now's
when you get in,
Put your own stamp on it.
It's a killer view,
right?
That's no --
[ gunshot ]
uhh!
[ shell casings clatter,
body thuds ]
[ clank ]
[ buzzing ]
[ scraping floor ]
[ clicks ]
[ gunshots ]
uhh!
[ shouting indistinctly ]
Yeah!
Ahh!
You are going down, yo!
Okay, one more.
You do realize this is
just a game.
I'm not competitive.
I just like to win.
Oh... [ laughs ]
okay.
[ ball bouncing, rolling ]
Oh, you know what? That--
that's cheating. That's --
That was spinning.
Just spinning.
Okay --
Yeah, there's spinning
in chicago.
[ laughing ]
whoo!
Ooh! There it goes!
Down that field!
Oh! [ laughs ]
oh, did that hurt?
What?
Did that hurt?
All right.
I'm sorry.
Is everybody here
Watching the man
get beat by the girl?
Uh, guys?
Yeah?
Can I close out this check?
My shift's about to end.
Yeah. Oh!
One second, one second,
one second.
Okay. Hands off half-time.
Okay.
1...
Ooh!
2 -- oh! 3.
[ laughs, claps hands ]
yes!
[ exhales ] I'm gonna
give you some advice.
Never play foosball
with a woman
That's raised three brothers.
[ laughs ]
Thank you.
It's exhausting.
....As they exited their car.
In addition
to the two f.B.I. Agents,
A third victim, edward hu,
was on his way to testify today
In the high-profile
murder trial
Against kelvin bittaker.
Bittaker is currently being
held on suspicion of murder
Of a.U. Scholarship
student jamie owen.
Owen,
from san diego, california,
Was allegedly beaten to death
last month by bittaker
After a dispute in a bar.
Can we get some
chicken wings?
She. We may have to
get 'em to go.
Can we get some chicken wings
to go, please?
Yeah.
...Charges of first degree
murder.
[ cell phone ringing ]
Several witnesses in the bar
claimed
Mr. Bittaker
appeared intoxicated...
Hey, boss.
...And had to be restrained
several times
From becoming violent.
All right, we'll be right there.
We need to go now.
Yeah. Uh, 86 the wings.
Uh...
Sure.
Thank you. Sorry.
[ shredder whirring ]
♪
[ indistinct conversations ]
Jane, lisbon.
You recall agent spackman,
dallas f.B.I.
[ sighs ]
He called us in on this one.
Agent spackman.
Ah, good to see you.
I missed that face.
Lisbon. Jane.
We got four murders
in under three minutes.
29-year-old realtor,
67-year-old copy store owner,
And two f.B.I. Agents.
Good men. Good family men
with, uh, young kids.
No security cameras,
no fingerprints.
Guy was in and out
like a ghost.
Yeah.
The murder victim,
edward hu,
He was the key witness
in a murder investigation
Of one kelvin bittaker,
Who beat a guy to death
over a spilled drink.
Abbott: The family has been
of interest
To the dallas f.B.I.
For some time.
Their import/export
car warehouse is a front.
This murder case -- this is just
a thin edge of the wedge.
Now the hope here is to use
kelvin's conviction
To take the whole family down.
Kelvin might be looking
at the needle,
Which might make him
more pliable.
Now how said the hope is,
not was,
From which I surmise that you
have another witness
To the murder?
We do. A young woman.
Young mother, actually.
If we can convince her
to testify after today,
And if we can keep her
alive.
You think the bittakers have
a hit on her, also?
That would be a pretty bold
move at this point.
You can count on it.
This woman's testimony is
enough to bring them down.
If kelvin goes to jail,
He's gonna take the whole
family with him.
Abbott: The young woman,
lily stoppard,
Is scheduled to testify
in two days' time.
With a hit man of this caliber,
we've been asked
To come and join
the investigation.
3 perfect shots
from close to 1,000 yards.
Not many snipers can
make hits from that distance
With that kind of accuracy.
That should narrow it down,
right?
I wish. Truth is, the shooter
could have been anybody.
Now, these bittakers,
they can choose
Any number of their contacts
to call in a hit.
Shooter could be
any nationality,
He could be any age --
nah, it's a regional guy.
And here we go.
Yeah. Local boy
with a sweet tooth
For powdered sugar beignets,
see?
And, uh, they --
they shook hands, obviously.
How do we know that the, uh,
Victim wasn't holding
the beignet, jane?
No, he's trim, he's spruced.
He's on the job.
He's not a pastry buff.
Doesn't mean that
the shooter's regional.
A lot of people
like beignets.
Oh, I would argue that a lot
of people don't even know
What beignets are, spackman,
But I will concede you
that point.
Oh, thank you.
And I will focus on
who hired him
And what kelvin did to that
boy from san diego.
I'm guessing the bittakers
have very little tolerance
For outsiders.
So if they ordered this hit,
it would have been
Somebody they were
comfortable with.
Yeah, someone from down home.
All right, so we'll
run the profiles.
And, jane, the last remaining
witness that we have --
Lily stoppard --
mm?
She's in h.Q.
Under high security right now.
Spackman would like you
to talk to her.
Me? Why?
Because she might be reluctant
to testify,
And we could do
with a little charm.
A little charm?
Yeah.
I don't know if I should be
insulted or, uh, flattered.
Well, whatever works.
A little bit of both.
Okay.
I don't see what
the difference is.
You couldn't protect
the other guy.
Matthew, let's just
hear them out.
Mrs. Stoppard --
lily.
Lily.
Now you will continue to
receive our full protection,
And I can assure you that
every conceivable effort
Will be made to protect you
and your family.
But it's your choice.
Up to you.
Door's open.
Then no.
Matt --
no.
This is nuts.
Why should you risk your life
for these people?
And what about our baby?
He needs you.
A-- are you even thinking
about him?
Of course
I'm thinking about him.
But I'm also thinking about
somebody else's child, too.
That poor kid.
Jamie owen didn't even
fight back.
I mean, he couldn't.
[ grunting, blows landing ]
[ tires screech softly ]
[ men shouting indistinctly ]
It was brutal.
[ bang ]
[ bang ]
[ grunts ]
Uhh!
[ body thuds ]
Uhh!
[ bang ]
I knew right away he was dead.
I didn't know what to do.
I was scared.
So I just stayed in my car
and...
[ shifting gears ]
[ bang, engine revving ]
[ tires screeching ]
You called the cops. You did
your duty. That's enough.
We've got a baby at home,
and he's only 6 months old.
I don't understand how I'm
the only one who gets that.
Mr. Stoppard, I can
assure you we -- we --
We understand your concerns.
And they're pretty
darned reasonable.
Thank you. Finally.
What's your baby's name?
Henry.
After matt's dad.
Henry. That's a good,
strong name.
I hate to talk to you
about doing the right thing.
Doing it is the easy part.
Knowing what it is
is tough.
And let me guess.
You know what
the right thing to do is.
No. No, I don't,
matthew.
But, um...I'm gonna
ask you this.
In years from now when, uh,
You tell henry this story,
how will it go?
Did the three of you take
an evil killer off the street,
Or did you play it safe?
Is henry's birthright
gonna be one of proud bravery
Or sensible caution?
Tough call.
Nice work.
I thought you were
blowing it back there.
Yeah, nice work. You better
look after that woman.
Hey. We will.
You have my word.
I don't want your word.
I want her safe.
[ door squeaks ]
[ chain rattling ]
Kelvin bittaker,
Supervising agent
dennis abbott.
Sit down.
My mama taught me
never talk to strangers.
Four good people are dead.
Don't test my patience.
A lot of good people
are dead, hoss.
It's the way of the world.
Sit...Down.
[ chains thud, rattle ]
[ sighs ] so what four people
are we talking about?
Outside of the courthouse
this morning,
Two f.B.I. Agents,
a realtor,
And edward hu.
[ scoffs ]
you're kidding me.
[ laughs ]
[ continues laughing ]
Oh... [ laughs ]
hallelujah.
[ laughing ]
Yes.
[ claps hands ]
Yes, yes, yes.
Thank you.
[ laughs ]
Bittaker didn't know about
the murders before I told him.
He didn't order the hits
himself.
Well, we got the profiles
on the other family members
From the dallas field office.
All right, well,
tell me about 'em.
Middle brother ethan
has a record.
He also has some health issues.
Caleb's only 19,
But according to spackman
that kid's a real smart-ass.
He's being groomed
for something bigger.
Intel's a little sketchy
on the mom, belinda.
Well, one of them must have
reached out to the hit man
To make the contract.
Yeah, but we don't know
which one or how.
Spackman's team has been
through all their phone records.
The family's been
wired up for months.
And I take it
they searched their computers.
No communication regarding
hits on a witness,
No coded messages --
all clean as a whistle.
But they're not.
Why don't you go see
the family? Take jane.
You got it.
Hey!
Who are you people?
How'd you get in here?
Ethan bittaker?
Who wants to know?
F.B.I.
Ah, you can keep walking.
Gotta have an appointment.
Ma!
Ma?! The feebs are here.
Oh, ethan!
Please don't be rude.
How can I help you, agents?
We want to talk to you
about four dead men,
And the hit you have out
on lily stoppard.
Whoa! That's quite a leap.
How did we arrive there?
What four dead men?
Who's lily?
Mrs. Bittaker, you are
a fabulous liar.
Sir, please don't mock me.
My oldest boy is in jail
for a crime he didn't do,
And ethan here has terrible
health problems.
Honey, you know I love you.
And we're just making it
hand-to-mouth
Until this whole mess
is cleared up.
And I have no idea
what you're talking about.
Really? Because these
ferraris and phantoms
Don't say
"hand-to-mouth" to me.
It's like a master class
in dishonesty.
You can't just bust in here
And accuse us
of assassinations,
Or whatever the hell else.
That's harassment.
Yeah.
Where's your warrant?
Ethan -- ethan, I understand.
Being a bittaker middle child
can't be easy,
And I-I sympathize.
But you really do
have to take control
Of these attention issues.
Mrs. Bittaker, where have you
been for the last three days?
Beauty shop...
[ game playing indistinctly ]
oh! Head shot! Sweet!
Oh, check your left,
funguy!
Left! Sniper's on you!
Boom! Cal da king
crushes again! Ha ha!
Kneel before me and die,
scum!
This is caleb? He's the one
with the smarts, huh?
This is a private office.
You got to get out of here.
What's that game he's playing?
Looks fun.
Come on.
I'll go.
Get out of here!
I'm going.
[ I.V. Pole thuds on floor ]
Did you break her yet?
Ah, okay. Let's go, cho.
Pleasure meeting you,
mrs. Bittaker.
You have a wonderful family.
You must be very proud.
You can sneer at me
all you like.
I will. Thank you. Hey.
Lay off the antidepressants.
They're making you slow.
And you're still not happy,
are you?
Don't ever make me
tell you this again.
Do not play this game
when people are here.
Got it?
Here we are.
"war lord iii."
Hold on.
Cal da king, you say.
I will run the logs.
[ typing ]
[ clicks mouse ]
yep.
He's in a tournament circle.
Caleb's gamer tag
is "cal da king."
And from there,
they can talk to anyone,
Anywhere, anytime?
If they're in your circle.
Hmm. Well, bingo.
That's how they communicated
With the hit man --
through the game.
There's a thousand people
in cal da king's circle,
And conversations
aren't logged.
There's no way
to narrow it down.
Is there some kind of
ranking, uh, thing?
Of course.
That's the point.
So if someone entered
the war lord circle
That wasn't really there
as a gamer, then --
They would suck, basically.
Okay, let's run
an I.D. Trace
On the bottom three
cyber warriors on that list.
Of course.
Just in time.
Ballistics came up
with a match.
We have a suspect.
He has two previous hits
with the same make of bullet.
Yeah, you were right, jane.
This guy's definitely
from the region.
Either that, or he's been
operating here
For the last few years.
Downloads from
the realtor's smartphone
Says that he was meeting
someone named lydon.
Which is obviously an alias.
Now the problem is we got
no fingerprints on this guy.
Got no facial recognition,
no I.D., nothing.
Did we verify's lydon's
connection to the bittakers?
Not so far.
Normally,
with a guy like lydon,
There'll be
a go-between involved,
An intermediary who side-steps
hard or cyber links.
Now the problem is tracking it.
There's too many potential
methods of communication.
They could be using anything.
They could be using dating sites
or a dead e-mail address.
Hell, they could even use
The old-school
meet on the street, so...
And we don't have time
to go through all of this --
[ knock on door ]
Sorry to interrupt.
Jane, I've got three names
for you.
Ah, the bittaker/lydon
connection.
The bottom three
are juniesdad --
62-year-old male
from nova scotia.
Eh.
Oldgalsrule -- 57-year-old
female from the u.K.
Countmein66, 35-year-old
female from louisiana.
Her. Definitely her.
Excuse me, jane. What the hell
are you talking about?
Well, I highly doubt your
go-between lives in nova scotia,
Or the u.K., for that matter,
So I'm gonna vote on
miss louisiana.
[ cell phone rings ]
Wylie: Her real name
is peg baily from lafitte,
And get this --
her ex used to work
As an enforcer
for the bittakers.
Lisbon: Thanks.
Looks pretty deserted.
No, I think there's
someone here.
We have to assume that it's...
All right,
here's the plan --
Lisbon and I are
gonna check it out.
Jane, you stay.
Ken, really? Stay?
Listen to me.
For all we know, this lady's
just bad at video games,
All right, and I don't want
to go upsetting the locals.
I'm happy to wait here.
I'm not your dog.
[ whispers ] jackass.
[ knock on door ]
spackman: Anybody here?
Wait here.
I'll check around the back.
Hey! Oop!
There's someone there.
[ continues pounding ]
Excuse me, sir, does
peg baily live here?
Oh, uh, peg's not here.
We're with the f.B.I.
I'm agent lisbon.
This is patrick jane.
Who are you?
Austin.
You've come a long way.
Uh...Hope that nothing serious
brought you down.
I'm peg's cousin billy.
Wh-what's the issue, ma'am?
Can we come in?
If you want.
I can't tell you
when she'll be back.
You can tell your friend
he can come in.
[ gunshots ]
Uhh!
[ shell casings clatter ]
[ gunshots ]
[ spackman gasping ]
[ gasping continues ]
Jane, stay with him.
[ gasping ]
okay.
Spackman.
[ coughing ]
Spackman, look at me.
[ birds chirping,
wings flapping ]
In, 1, 2.
Wide open.
Out, 1, 2.
Pain flowing out with --
Good job keeping his heart rate
down before we got here.
Okay.
Probably kept him
from bleeding out.
[ lift whirs ]
Take care, spackman.
Hey, boss, they're
bringing spackman
To a hospital
in port arthur now.
But they have stabilized him.
I don't know. I think so.
He's gonna be okay.
Uh, one more thing.
We found a picture
Of lily stoppard
on peg baily's computer.
I want you two to get back here
a.S.A.P.
We'll put you in a room
with a forensic sketch artist.
[ siren wailing ]
All right, we'll get there
as soon as we can.
[ equipment whirring ]
[ steady beeping ]
The problem is we got
too good a look at him.
Well, how is that
a problem?
Well, this is who we saw.
Uh-huh.
Lydon knows we got
a good, clear look at his face.
He'll never be that
good ol' boy again.
Wylie, can you take this
and generate
Disguise variations on it?
Hair length, glasses, beard,
that kind of thing?
Yeah, sure.
Excellent.
See what that turns up.
[ knock ]
you wanted to see me, boss?
The arrogance of it all.
Normally is.
Witnesses, our people,
now this peg baily.
Jane figures they communicate
with her through video games,
And just like that,
she's dead.
God, I want to crush
these people.
[ breathes sharply ]
yeah. Me, too.
Ethan bittaker has kidney
dialysis four times a day.
I'm thinking he might be
a tad fragile,
With his health issues
and all.
And he has 38 months left
on his parole.
You want me to lean on him?
Let's both go lean on him.
Let me go! Let me go!
Mom!
Stop it! Stop it! Mom --
what's going on?!
What are you doing?!
What's it look like
we're doing?
Well, it looks like
you're arresting
A dangerous parole violator,
agent cho.
Parole violator?
What did I do?
Consorting
with a known felon.
Who?
Kelvin bittaker.
That's -- that's
my brother.
That's ridiculous.
Bad news, ethan -- jail time
for the rest of your sentence.
Mom! Mom!
He has to be on dialysis
in less than an hour.
Oh. Well -- well,
that is a problem.
Well, how's this?
We'll take his I.V. Pole
with us.
Just while we hold you.
Now, I can't say
what's gonna happen
When he goes
back to the pen.
What's going on?
Care to illuminate me,
agent?
Supervising agent
dennis abbott.
My.
I'm gonna lay this out
in words
That are designed
to resonate.
You're gonna call off
the hit on lily stoppard.
You will call it off,
And you will deliver us
lydon,
Or I won't be able to answer
to your son's well-being.
I have no idea what
you're talking about.
I'm truly lost
in this conversation.
You want to call my bluff?
Well, do it.
Please.
Because while ethan suffers,
Or whatever happens
to him,
It'll be on you.
He's nothing to me.
But he's not, is he?
He's not nothing to you.
You're a lawman,
A supervising agent,
and he is a citizen.
Sure, you may make him
unhappy or uncomfortable,
But you're not gonna
let him die.
You're too damn ethical
for that.
They don't know me,
do they, cho?
No.
I think I do. And I'm gonna
bet my son on it.
Nice chatting with you, ma'am.
[ lowered voice ]
okay, go get that damn pole.
[ metal zings ]
1...2...3...
Bang...Bang.
[ clicks ]
[ click ]
I've set it for slideshow.
Let me know if you need more.
[ clicks mouse, man on game
speaks indistinctly ]
whoa, no. No, no, no, no, no.
Hold on.
[ gunfire on game ]
Sorry. That's not it.
[ clicks mouse ]
[ exhales ]
Impressive.
Can you print those out?
Sure.
And make sure you send them
to the hotel lily's staying at
As soon as you can.
Nice job.
[ mouse clicks ]
of course, "battlefield"
was always my favorite,
But that's just me.
"battlefield"?
Oh. Yeah. You know,
the big boy game.
But, hey, some people just can't
handle that kind of pressure.
Oh, you mean that little simple
game with just a couple
Hot keys to worry about -- left
trigger, right trigger, win?
Oh, it won't be so simple
When I no-scope you
for a team wipe.
Listen, vega, I think a little
one-v.-One
Might clear this
whole thing up.
Pistols only.
Any day, any time.
[ presses key ]
[ elevator bell dings ]
[ pole rattles ]
The hit is still in play.
We'll hold ethan
for 24 hours,
But lydon has been a step
ahead of us the whole way.
We have to get ahead now.
Lily's testifying tomorrow.
First thing in the morning,
yeah.
Well, lydon probably already
scoped out her hotel,
So we'll change her.
Lily's safe as long as she's
in her hotel room, yeah?
Yes. She has full protection
from the car to the courthouse.
But not en route
to the car?
No.
No, you -- you want to stay
ahead of lydon,
You leave lily where she is,
we make our own plan.
Okay, which is what?
The general who chooses
the field of battle wisely
Wins before the fighting
starts.
[ sighs ] okay.
I'm listening.
[ printer whirs ]
Patrick: Lobbies are porous.
Multiple ways in and out.
Lots of camouflage, too.
We'll need all hands on deck.
The moment we leave her room,
it's on.
[ cart rattles ]
bang.
Lydon will take advantage
of small spaces
And passageways,
areas not seen by the public.
He'll use it all.
Bang!
[ door closes ]
Bang.
We can't leave the husband
behind.
We'll have to position him,
too.
He'll have an exit plan
well in place.
We're gonna want one, too.
Bang.
Bang.
Bang.
By my count, I've been
shot six times.
Seven, but, uh...
Okay. That's good.
I got it. Thank you.
[ crickets chirping ]
[ murmurs ]
[ clicks ]
Hi.
You all right?
Uh, yeah. I'm fine.
Everything's gonna be okay
tomorrow.
You know that, right?
We know what we're doing.
It's a good plan.
It's a really good plan.
He has a good plan, too.
We're gonna be safe.
Someone could get hurt.
It's always dangerous.
This is different.
Everybody will be fine.
I promise.
We're all gonna be fine,
If that's what this
insomnia's about.
Yeah, you're right.
I'm right, and everything's
gonna be okay?
No, it's what
the insomnia's about.
Come to bed.
Please? Come on.
[ chuckles softly ]
[ clicks ]
Do you want me to sing you
the lullaby
I used to sing to my brother
when I couldn't sleep?
Um...
I really, uh,
Don't want to hear that.
Okay. Mm.
Mm.
♪ oh, oh
♪ we're halfway there
[ groans ]
♪ oh, oh
♪ livin' on a prayer
♪ take my hand and we'll --
yeah.

I swear ♪
Come on, sing.

[ indistinct conversations ]
Wylie's in position
in the van outside.
[ door closes ]
Okay, good. Everyone should be
getting into place soon.
The only thing that we have
to do is run the timeline
With lily and matthew.
Uh, vega, would you mind
getting them?
Did you confirm that
the monitors are up in the van?
Yes. Wylie was able to tap
into the hotel security system.
All the monitors in the van
are on live feed now.
Okay. Excellent.
Hey, lily.
How you doing?
Fine.
That's good.
Matthew, holding up?
Is it time already?
No, not yet.
Lily's expected to be
in the courthouse
In a little under two hours,
so we'll leave in about an hour.
Matthew, we're gonna need
to get you into position
Ahead of time before lily
leaves the room.
The car will be in the garage
of the hotel.
The elevator goes directly
to them,
But we do have
alternative routes
Just in case
something happens.
Can you people guarantee
that this will work?
Today's plan has your wife's
safety as our only goal.
We don't know exactly
how this is gonna play out,
But I can say
that we've explored
Every possible scenario,
and we're prepared for it.
Well, thank you.
All of you.
Good. All right.
Vega, if you don't mind.
[ clears throat ]
[ door opens ]
Hey.
If anything happens to her
today, you know,
And I could have
stopped it...
Matthew, your wife
wants to do this,
And we'll do everything
to keep her safe.
It was a good decision.
You need to trust her
on it, okay?
I'd like to run through
the schematics one more time.
I'm gonna take a -- another
quick look around.
I'll be back very soon.
Okay.
[ loud burst ]
[ woman screams ]
Okay, it's happening.
[ alarm wailing ]
Lisbon: What's happening?
Cho: Smoke in the hallway.
Smoke bomb?
Yeah, probably.
It's okay.
Everybody just stay back.
Good.
All right?
It's a decoy.
He wants the chaos.
We push on.
Let's get into position.
The elevators are gonna
get shut down.
They do that in emergencies.
Okay, jane, I need you to get
down to the van where wylie is.
All right? Take the stairs.
Everybody, let's go.
[ woman screaming ]
[ alarm wailing ]
make your way to the exits!
This is an emergency!
You cannot go back to your room!
Make your way to the exits!
Everyone calm down,
Slow down, take your time!
This is an emergency!
You cannot go back to your room!
Make your way to the exits!
[ alarm continues,
sirens wailing, horns honk ]
[ noises fade ]
[ typing ]
[ siren wailing ]
[ door closes ]
abbott and magath are in
the leased suite on monitor 1.
All right, so how do I
talk to them?
Thank you. Abbott, it's jane.
I'm in the van.
All right, copy that.
Lisbon and cho are
in the bedroom with lily.
Good. So everyone's
accounted for.
Where's vega?
I'm here. I'm in position.
Excellent.
Everyone listen up.
Watch for emergency personnel,
anyone in a uniform.
That's how lydon's coming in.
[ sirens continue wailing ]
[ indistinct conversations ]
[ alarm wailing,
conversations continue ]
Woman: Make your way
to the exits.
We're evacuating the building.
Make your way to the exits.
We are evacuating the building.
Stay calm. Everyone stay calm.
We're evacuating the building.
[ alarm continues wailing ]
[ alarm blaring, door closes ]
Uh, you need to go now.
Copy that.
We're moving out.
Are you good?
I'm good.
Let's go.
[ indistinct conversations ]
[ sirens wailing ]
What do we have here?
Is that him?
Is that him?
Patrick: Hey, lisbon,
West stairwell,
entering the 6th floor.
Could be him dressed as an emt.
I got it.
Don't get too close. Just try
to confirm if it's him.
Jane, I got it. [ coughs ]
Jane, I'm on the 6th floor now.
Yeah -- lisbon, it looks like
he may be at the other end.
Keep going.
Ma'am, you okay?
Woman: Uh, I hurt my ankle.
Which one is it?
All right, we're gonna need you
to reach out here, okay?
You're gonna be okay.
Follow me.
Lisbon: Jane, it's not him.
Abbott: We're headed down
to the 7th floor.
[ door closes ]
Abbott, by no means
rushing you,
But if things get tight,
we may have to rethink things.
Good to know you're not
rushing me.
[ shouting indistinctly ]
[ device clicks ]
Jane, the lights went out.
Yeah, I, uh, I saw that.
He is there. Be careful.
[ gasps ]
[ radio chatter ]
[ click, burst ]
Help! Help me!
I've been shot!
I got this.
You got it?
All right, I got it.
There's a shooter
in the hotel.
He went downstairs.
Okay, buddy, hold on.
Oh... Oh, tell them
to be careful.
All right. Let me see
where you got hit.
Uhh!
[ body thuds ]
[ grunts ]
[ presses button ]
elevator's in lockdown.
Try the stairway.
[ coughs ]
[ metal zings, clatters ]
Down!
[ bursts ]
[ coughs ]
[ gunshots ]
[ click ]
Suspect is down.
[ laughing ]
We got an agent down.
Service stairwell, 7th floor.
[ groaning ]
Patrick: Everyone all right?
Jane.
That's confirmed.
[ beeping ]
The target's secure.
Great work, team.
Patrick: Did you get that,
lisbon?
Lisbon, where are you?
Yeah. I got it. I'm here.
I'm just getting back
with the team.
It's good news.
Well, here we are.
Cozy.
Lily stoppard
took the stand today.
Testified against
your son kelvin.
We had a positive I.D.
On lydon,
Hard evidence against you
and your family
For five murders
and two attempted murders.
So now you want me
to crack,
Throw a child of mine
under the bus
To save myself?
No.
Good, because I won't.
Someone like you doesn't have
the faintest idea
About the love a parent
has for a child.
You're right, I don't.
But I'm guessing it's what
jamie owen's mom
Felt about him.
And the other five victims.
They had parents, too.
No deals. No bargaining.
You're all gonna go down
together.
It'll be a family trip.
Have you figured it out yet,
belinda?
How your never-miss hit man
missed so badly?
He was close, too.
But we knew that.
That's why we moved lily
out of harm's way
And subbed in one of our own...
Right before his eyes.
Sometimes people just see
what they want to see.
I don't meant to gloat,
but...
[ man speaking indistinctly ]
Hey, vega, you see this?
What?
Oh, uh, sorry, sorry.
Not this.
I meant...
[ battle noises on video game ]
[ gasps ] no way!
Oh, it is so on!
Oh, yeah?
Oh, yeah!
You think?
[ scoffs ] I know!
[ controllers clicking ]
You are going down!
Unh-unh!
Stop!
Man: Watch out! Watch out!
Ha!
Won't happen.
[ gunfire ]
Hey, that's cheating!
[ laughs ]
It's not.
I am so going for you.
It's not gonna happen.
You are going down!
You're gonna lose.
You ready? Ready...
[ rustling ]
There you are.
Here I am.
Yeah.
Ah. Okay.
What's wrong?
[ clattering ]
why?
You must already know.
[ chuckles softly ]
yeah. I-I took you --
You took me off.
Mm-hmm.
On purpose.
You knew that wasn't lydon
on the 6th floor.
You had to have, but you
sent me there anyway.
Yeah, that's right.
I wanted to protect you.
Protect me?
Mm-hmm.
I'm an f.B.I. Agent.
I know.
It's my job.
I know. I'm sorry.
But...What?
You'd do it again?
Yeah. I...
Yep, probably would.
That's a problem.
It's not a problem.
A really big one.
No, it's --
You can't do that. Okay?
You have to let me do my job.
If you can't --
yeah, I understand.
If you can't...
I don't know.
How do we work together?
Well...
We work it out.
[ button clicks ]
mr. Lydon.
See you found the place okay.
It's nice to meet you.
Full disclosure,
we're not turnkey yet,
And I'm in big trouble
if anyone finds out
I met you here.
But brochures couldn't
do this justice,
Am I right?
It's a work in progress,
But that's why now's
when you get in,
Put your own stamp on it.
It's a killer view,
right?
That's no --
[ gunshot ]
uhh!
[ shell casings clatter,

[ clank ]
[ buzzing ]
[ scraping floor ]
[ clicks ]
[ gunshots ]
uhh!
[ shouting indistinctly ]
Yeah!
Ahh!
You are going down, yo!
Okay, one more.
You do realize this is
just a game.
I'm not competitive.
I just like to win.
Oh... [ laughs ]
okay.
[ ball bouncing, rolling ]
Oh, you know what? That--
that's cheating. That's --
That was spinning.
Just spinning.
Okay --
Yeah, there's spinning
in chicago.
[ laughing ]
whoo!
Ooh! There it goes!
Down that field!
Oh! [ laughs ]
oh, did that hurt?
What?
Did that hurt?
All right.
I'm sorry.
Is everybody here
Watching the man
get beat by the girl?
Uh, guys?
Yeah?
Can I close out this check?
My shift's about to end.
Yeah. Oh!
One second, one second,
one second.
Okay. Hands off half-time.
Okay.
1...
Ooh!
2 -- oh! 3.
[ laughs, claps hands ]
yes!
[ exhales ] I'm gonna
give you some advice.
Never play foosball
with a woman
That's raised three brothers.
[ laughs ]
Thank you.
It's exhausting.
....As they exited their car.
In addition
to the two f.B.I. Agents,
A third victim, edward hu,
was on his way to testify today
In the high-profile
murder trial
Against kelvin bittaker.
Bittaker is currently being
held on suspicion of murder
Of a.U. Scholarship
student jamie owen.
Owen,
from san diego, california,
Was allegedly beaten to death
last month by bittaker
After a dispute in a bar.
Can we get some
chicken wings?
She. We may have to
get 'em to go.
Can we get some chicken wings
to go, please?
Yeah.
...Charges of first degree
murder.
[ cell phone ringing ]
Several witnesses in the bar
claimed
Mr. Bittaker
appeared intoxicated...
Hey, boss.
...And had to be restrained
several times
From becoming violent.
All right, we'll be right there.
We need to go now.
Yeah. Uh, 86 the wings.
Uh...
Sure.
Thank you. Sorry.
[ shredder whirring ]
♪
[ indistinct conversations ]
Jane, lisbon.
You recall agent spackman,
dallas f.B.I.
[ sighs ]
He called us in on this one.
Agent spackman.
Ah, good to see you.
I missed that face.
Lisbon. Jane.
We got four murders
in under three minutes.
29-year-old realtor,
67-year-old copy store owner,
And two f.B.I. Agents.
Good men. Good family men
with, uh, young kids.
No security cameras,
no fingerprints.
Guy was in and out
like a ghost.
Yeah.
The murder victim,
edward hu,
He was the key witness
in a murder investigation
Of one kelvin bittaker,
Who beat a guy to death
over a spilled drink.
Abbott: The family has been
of interest
To the dallas f.B.I.
For some time.
Their import/export
car warehouse is a front.
This murder case -- this is just
a thin edge of the wedge.
Now the hope here is to use
kelvin's conviction
To take the whole family down.
Kelvin might be looking
at the needle,
Which might make him
more pliable.
Now how said the hope is,
not was,
From which I surmise that you
have another witness
To the murder?
We do. A young woman.
Young mother, actually.
If we can convince her
to testify after today,
And if we can keep her
alive.
You think the bittakers have
a hit on her, also?
That would be a pretty bold
move at this point.
You can count on it.
This woman's testimony is
enough to bring them down.
If kelvin goes to jail,
He's gonna take the whole
family with him.
Abbott: The young woman,
lily stoppard,
Is scheduled to testify
in two days' time.
With a hit man of this caliber,
we've been asked
To come and join
the investigation.
3 perfect shots
from close to 1,000 yards.
Not many snipers can
make hits from that distance
With that kind of accuracy.
That should narrow it down,
right?
I wish. Truth is, the shooter
could have been anybody.
Now, these bittakers,
they can choose
Any number of their contacts
to call in a hit.
Shooter could be
any nationality,
He could be any age --
nah, it's a regional guy.
And here we go.
Yeah. Local boy
with a sweet tooth
For powdered sugar beignets,
see?
And, uh, they --
they shook hands, obviously.
How do we know that the, uh,
Victim wasn't holding
the beignet, jane?
No, he's trim, he's spruced.
He's on the job.
He's not a pastry buff.
Doesn't mean that
the shooter's regional.
A lot of people
like beignets.
Oh, I would argue that a lot
of people don't even know
What beignets are, spackman,
But I will concede you
that point.
Oh, thank you.
And I will focus on
who hired him
And what kelvin did to that
boy from san diego.
I'm guessing the bittakers
have very little tolerance
For outsiders.
So if they ordered this hit,
it would have been
Somebody they were
comfortable with.
Yeah, someone from down home.
All right, so we'll
run the profiles.
And, jane, the last remaining
witness that we have --
Lily stoppard --
mm?
She's in h.Q.
Under high security right now.
Spackman would like you
to talk to her.
Me? Why?
Because she might be reluctant
to testify,
And we could do
with a little charm.
A little charm?
Yeah.
I don't know if I should be
insulted or, uh, flattered.
Well, whatever works.
A little bit of both.
Okay.
I don't see what
the difference is.
You couldn't protect
the other guy.
Matthew, let's just
hear them out.
Mrs. Stoppard --
lily.
Lily.
Now you will continue to
receive our full protection,
And I can assure you that
every conceivable effort
Will be made to protect you
and your family.
But it's your choice.
Up to you.
Door's open.
Then no.
Matt --
no.
This is nuts.
Why should you risk your life
for these people?
And what about our baby?
He needs you.
A-- are you even thinking
about him?
Of course
I'm thinking about him.
But I'm also thinking about
somebody else's child, too.
That poor kid.
Jamie owen didn't even
fight back.
I mean, he couldn't.
[ grunting, blows landing ]
[ tires screech softly ]
[ men shouting indistinctly ]
It was brutal.
[ bang ]
[ bang ]
[ grunts ]
Uhh!
[ body thuds ]
Uhh!
[ bang ]
I knew right away he was dead.
I didn't know what to do.
I was scared.
So I just stayed in my car
and...
[ shifting gears ]
[ bang, engine revving ]
[ tires screeching ]
You called the cops. You did
your duty. That's enough.
We've got a baby at home,
and he's only 6 months old.
I don't understand how I'm
the only one who gets that.
Mr. Stoppard, I can
assure you we -- we --
We understand your concerns.
And they're pretty
darned reasonable.
Thank you. Finally.
What's your baby's name?
Henry.
After matt's dad.
Henry. That's a good,
strong name.
I hate to talk to you
about doing the right thing.
Doing it is the easy part.
Knowing what it is
is tough.
And let me guess.
You know what
the right thing to do is.
No. No, I don't,
matthew.
But, um...I'm gonna
ask you this.
In years from now when, uh,
You tell henry this story,
how will it go?
Did the three of you take
an evil killer off the street,
Or did you play it safe?
Is henry's birthright
gonna be one of proud bravery
Or sensible caution?
Tough call.
Nice work.
I thought you were
blowing it back there.
Yeah, nice work. You better
look after that woman.
Hey. We will.
You have my word.
I don't want your word.
I want her safe.
[ door squeaks ]
[ chain rattling ]
Kelvin bittaker,
Supervising agent
dennis abbott.
Sit down.
My mama taught me
never talk to strangers.
Four good people are dead.
Don't test my patience.
A lot of good people
are dead, hoss.
It's the way of the world.
Sit...Down.
[ chains thud, rattle ]
[ sighs ] so what four people
are we talking about?
Outside of the courthouse
this morning,
Two f.B.I. Agents,
a realtor,
And edward hu.
[ scoffs ]
you're kidding me.
[ laughs ]
[ continues laughing ]
Oh... [ laughs ]
hallelujah.
[ laughing ]
Yes.
[ claps hands ]
Yes, yes, yes.
Thank you.
[ laughs ]
Bittaker didn't know about
the murders before I told him.
He didn't order the hits
himself.
Well, we got the profiles
on the other family members
From the dallas field office.
All right, well,
tell me about 'em.
Middle brother ethan
has a record.
He also has some health issues.
Caleb's only 19,
But according to spackman
that kid's a real smart-ass.
He's being groomed
for something bigger.
Intel's a little sketchy
on the mom, belinda.
Well, one of them must have
reached out to the hit man
To make the contract.
Yeah, but we don't know
which one or how.
Spackman's team has been
through all their phone records.
The family's been
wired up for months.
And I take it
they searched their computers.
No communication regarding
hits on a witness,
No coded messages --
all clean as a whistle.
But they're not.
Why don't you go see
the family? Take jane.
You got it.
Hey!
Who are you people?
How'd you get in here?
Ethan bittaker?
Who wants to know?
F.B.I.
Ah, you can keep walking.
Gotta have an appointment.
Ma!
Ma?! The feebs are here.
Oh, ethan!
Please don't be rude.
How can I help you, agents?
We want to talk to you
about four dead men,
And the hit you have out
on lily stoppard.
Whoa! That's quite a leap.
How did we arrive there?
What four dead men?
Who's lily?
Mrs. Bittaker, you are
a fabulous liar.
Sir, please don't mock me.
My oldest boy is in jail
for a crime he didn't do,
And ethan here has terrible
health problems.
Honey, you know I love you.
And we're just making it
hand-to-mouth
Until this whole mess
is cleared up.
And I have no idea
what you're talking about.
Really? Because these
ferraris and phantoms
Don't say
"hand-to-mouth" to me.
It's like a master class
in dishonesty.
You can't just bust in here
And accuse us
of assassinations,
Or whatever the hell else.
That's harassment.
Yeah.
Where's your warrant?
Ethan -- ethan, I understand.
Being a bittaker middle child
can't be easy,
And I-I sympathize.
But you really do
have to take control
Of these attention issues.
Mrs. Bittaker, where have you
been for the last three days?
Beauty shop...
[ game playing indistinctly ]
oh! Head shot! Sweet!
Oh, check your left,
funguy!
Left! Sniper's on you!
Boom! Cal da king
crushes again! Ha ha!
Kneel before me and die,
scum!
This is caleb? He's the one
with the smarts, huh?
This is a private office.
You got to get out of here.
What's that game he's playing?
Looks fun.
Come on.
I'll go.
Get out of here!
I'm going.
[ I.V. Pole thuds on floor ]
Did you break her yet?
Ah, okay. Let's go, cho.
Pleasure meeting you,
mrs. Bittaker.
You have a wonderful family.
You must be very proud.
You can sneer at me
all you like.
I will. Thank you. Hey.
Lay off the antidepressants.
They're making you slow.
And you're still not happy,
are you?
Don't ever make me
tell you this again.
Do not play this game
when people are here.
Got it?
Here we are.
"war lord iii."
Hold on.
Cal da king, you say.
I will run the logs.
[ typing ]
[ clicks mouse ]
yep.
He's in a tournament circle.
Caleb's gamer tag
is "cal da king."
And from there,
they can talk to anyone,
Anywhere, anytime?
If they're in your circle.
Hmm. Well, bingo.
That's how they communicated
With the hit man --
through the game.
There's a thousand people
in cal da king's circle,
And conversations
aren't logged.
There's no way
to narrow it down.
Is there some kind of
ranking, uh, thing?
Of course.
That's the point.
So if someone entered
the war lord circle
That wasn't really there
as a gamer, then --
They would suck, basically.
Okay, let's run
an I.D. Trace
On the bottom three
cyber warriors on that list.
Of course.
Just in time.
Ballistics came up
with a match.
We have a suspect.
He has two previous hits
with the same make of bullet.
Yeah, you were right, jane.
This guy's definitely
from the region.
Either that, or he's been
operating here
For the last few years.
Downloads from
the realtor's smartphone
Says that he was meeting
someone named lydon.
Which is obviously an alias.
Now the problem is we got
no fingerprints on this guy.
Got no facial recognition,
no I.D., nothing.
Did we verify's lydon's
connection to the bittakers?
Not so far.
Normally,
with a guy like lydon,
There'll be
a go-between involved,
An intermediary who side-steps
hard or cyber links.
Now the problem is tracking it.
There's too many potential
methods of communication.
They could be using anything.
They could be using dating sites
or a dead e-mail address.
Hell, they could even use
The old-school
meet on the street, so...
And we don't have time
to go through all of this --
[ knock on door ]
Sorry to interrupt.
Jane, I've got three names
for you.
Ah, the bittaker/lydon
connection.
The bottom three
are juniesdad --
62-year-old male
from nova scotia.
Eh.
Oldgalsrule -- 57-year-old
female from the u.K.
Countmein66, 35-year-old
female from louisiana.
Her. Definitely her.
Excuse me, jane. What the hell
are you talking about?
Well, I highly doubt your
go-between lives in nova scotia,
Or the u.K., for that matter,
So I'm gonna vote on
miss louisiana.
[ cell phone rings ]
Wylie: Her real name
is peg baily from lafitte,
And get this --
her ex used to work
As an enforcer
for the bittakers.
Lisbon: Thanks.
Looks pretty deserted.
No, I think there's
someone here.
We have to assume that it's...
All right,
here's the plan --
Lisbon and I are
gonna check it out.
Jane, you stay.
Ken, really? Stay?
Listen to me.
For all we know, this lady's
just bad at video games,
All right, and I don't want
to go upsetting the locals.
I'm happy to wait here.
I'm not your dog.
[ whispers ] jackass.
[ knock on door ]
spackman: Anybody here?
Wait here.
I'll check around the back.
Hey! Oop!
There's someone there.
[ continues pounding ]
Excuse me, sir, does
peg baily live here?
Oh, uh, peg's not here.
We're with the f.B.I.
I'm agent lisbon.
This is patrick jane.
Who are you?
Austin.
You've come a long way.
Uh...Hope that nothing serious
brought you down.
I'm peg's cousin billy.
Wh-what's the issue, ma'am?
Can we come in?
If you want.
I can't tell you
when she'll be back.
You can tell your friend
he can come in.
[ gunshots ]
Uhh!
[ shell casings clatter ]
[ gunshots ]
[ spackman gasping ]
[ gasping continues ]
Jane, stay with him.
[ gasping ]
okay.
Spackman.
[ coughing ]
Spackman, look at me.
[ birds chirping,
wings flapping ]
In, 1, 2.
Wide open.
Out, 1, 2.
Pain flowing out with --
Good job keeping his heart rate
down before we got here.
Okay.
Probably kept him
from bleeding out.
[ lift whirs ]
Take care, spackman.
Hey, boss, they're
bringing spackman
To a hospital
in port arthur now.
But they have stabilized him.
I don't know. I think so.
He's gonna be okay.
Uh, one more thing.
We found a picture
Of lily stoppard
on peg baily's computer.
I want you two to get back here
a.S.A.P.
We'll put you in a room
with a forensic sketch artist.
[ siren wailing ]
All right, we'll get there
as soon as we can.
[ equipment whirring ]
[ steady beeping ]
The problem is we got
too good a look at him.
Well, how is that
a problem?
Well, this is who we saw.
Uh-huh.
Lydon knows we got
a good, clear look at his face.
He'll never be that
good ol' boy again.
Wylie, can you take this
and generate
Disguise variations on it?
Hair length, glasses, beard,
that kind of thing?
Yeah, sure.
Excellent.
See what that turns up.
[ knock ]
you wanted to see me, boss?
The arrogance of it all.
Normally is.
Witnesses, our people,
now this peg baily.
Jane figures they communicate
with her through video games,
And just like that,
she's dead.
God, I want to crush
these people.
[ breathes sharply ]
yeah. Me, too.
Ethan bittaker has kidney
dialysis four times a day.
I'm thinking he might be
a tad fragile,
With his health issues
and all.
And he has 38 months left
on his parole.
You want me to lean on him?
Let's both go lean on him.
Let me go! Let me go!
Mom!
Stop it! Stop it! Mom --
what's going on?!
What are you doing?!
What's it look like
we're doing?
Well, it looks like
you're arresting
A dangerous parole violator,
agent cho.
Parole violator?
What did I do?
Consorting
with a known felon.
Who?
Kelvin bittaker.
That's -- that's
my brother.
That's ridiculous.
Bad news, ethan -- jail time
for the rest of your sentence.
Mom! Mom!
He has to be on dialysis
in less than an hour.
Oh. Well -- well,
that is a problem.
Well, how's this?
We'll take his I.V. Pole
with us.
Just while we hold you.
Now, I can't say
what's gonna happen
When he goes
back to the pen.
What's going on?
Care to illuminate me,
agent?
Supervising agent
dennis abbott.
My.
I'm gonna lay this out
in words
That are designed
to resonate.
You're gonna call off
the hit on lily stoppard.
You will call it off,
And you will deliver us
lydon,
Or I won't be able to answer
to your son's well-being.
I have no idea what
you're talking about.
I'm truly lost
in this conversation.
You want to call my bluff?
Well, do it.
Please.
Because while ethan suffers,
Or whatever happens
to him,
It'll be on you.
He's nothing to me.
But he's not, is he?
He's not nothing to you.
You're a lawman,
A supervising agent,
and he is a citizen.
Sure, you may make him
unhappy or uncomfortable,
But you're not gonna
let him die.
You're too damn ethical
for that.
They don't know me,
do they, cho?
No.
I think I do. And I'm gonna
bet my son on it.
Nice chatting with you, ma'am.
[ lowered voice ]
okay, go get that damn pole.
[ metal zings ]
1...2...3...
Bang...Bang.
[ clicks ]
[ click ]
I've set it for slideshow.
Let me know if you need more.
[ clicks mouse, man on game
speaks indistinctly ]
whoa, no. No, no, no, no, no.
Hold on.
[ gunfire on game ]
Sorry. That's not it.
[ clicks mouse ]
[ exhales ]
Impressive.
Can you print those out?
Sure.
And make sure you send them
to the hotel lily's staying at
As soon as you can.
Nice job.
[ mouse clicks ]
of course, "battlefield"
was always my favorite,
But that's just me.
"battlefield"?
Oh. Yeah. You know,
the big boy game.
But, hey, some people just can't
handle that kind of pressure.
Oh, you mean that little simple
game with just a couple
Hot keys to worry about -- left
trigger, right trigger, win?
Oh, it won't be so simple
When I no-scope you
for a team wipe.
Listen, vega, I think a little
one-v.-One
Might clear this
whole thing up.
Pistols only.
Any day, any time.
[ presses key ]
[ elevator bell dings ]
[ pole rattles ]
The hit is still in play.
We'll hold ethan
for 24 hours,
But lydon has been a step
ahead of us the whole way.
We have to get ahead now.
Lily's testifying tomorrow.
First thing in the morning,
yeah.
Well, lydon probably already
scoped out her hotel,
So we'll change her.
Lily's safe as long as she's
in her hotel room, yeah?
Yes. She has full protection
from the car to the courthouse.
But not en route
to the car?
No.
No, you -- you want to stay
ahead of lydon,
You leave lily where she is,
we make our own plan.
Okay, which is what?
The general who chooses
the field of battle wisely
Wins before the fighting
starts.
[ sighs ] okay.
I'm listening.
[ printer whirs ]
Patrick: Lobbies are porous.
Multiple ways in and out.
Lots of camouflage, too.
We'll need all hands on deck.
The moment we leave her room,
it's on.
[ cart rattles ]
bang.
Lydon will take advantage
of small spaces
And passageways,
areas not seen by the public.
He'll use it all.
Bang!
[ door closes ]
Bang.
We can't leave the husband
behind.
We'll have to position him,
too.
He'll have an exit plan
well in place.
We're gonna want one, too.
Bang.
Bang.
Bang.
By my count, I've been
shot six times.
Seven, but, uh...
Okay. That's good.
I got it. Thank you.
[ crickets chirping ]
[ murmurs ]
[ clicks ]
Hi.
You all right?
Uh, yeah. I'm fine.
Everything's gonna be okay
tomorrow.
You know that, right?
We know what we're doing.
It's a good plan.
It's a really good plan.
He has a good plan, too.
We're gonna be safe.
Someone could get hurt.
It's always dangerous.
This is different.
Everybody will be fine.
I promise.
We're all gonna be fine,
If that's what this
insomnia's about.
Yeah, you're right.
I'm right, and everything's
gonna be okay?
No, it's what
the insomnia's about.
Come to bed.
Please? Come on.
[ chuckles softly ]
[ clicks ]
Do you want me to sing you
the lullaby
I used to sing to my brother
when I couldn't sleep?
Um...
I really, uh,
Don't want to hear that.
Okay. Mm.
Mm.
♪ oh, oh
♪ we're halfway there
[ groans ]
♪ oh, oh
♪ livin' on a prayer
♪ take my hand and we'll --
yeah.
[ laughs ] ♪ make it,
I swear ♪
Come on, sing.
[ groans ]
♪ oh, oh
♪ livin' on a prayer
♪ take my hand and we'll
make it, I swear ♪
♪ mm-hmm, think of the pain
[ click, buzzing ]
[ buzzing continues ]
[ buzzing continues ]
[ razor clatters,
buzzing stops ]
[ indistinct conversations ]
Wylie's in position
in the van outside.
[ door closes ]
Okay, good. Everyone should be
getting into place soon.
The only thing that we have
to do is run the timeline
With lily and matthew.
Uh, vega, would you mind
getting them?
Did you confirm that
the monitors are up in the van?
Yes. Wylie was able to tap
into the hotel security system.
All the monitors in the van
are on live feed now.
Okay. Excellent.
Hey, lily.
How you doing?
Fine.
That's good.
Matthew, holding up?
Is it time already?
No, not yet.
Lily's expected to be
in the courthouse
In a little under two hours,
so we'll leave in about an hour.
Matthew, we're gonna need
to get you into position
Ahead of time before lily
leaves the room.
The car will be in the garage
of the hotel.
The elevator goes directly
to them,
But we do have
alternative routes
Just in case
something happens.
Can you people guarantee
that this will work?
Today's plan has your wife's
safety as our only goal.
We don't know exactly
how this is gonna play out,
But I can say
that we've explored
Every possible scenario,
and we're prepared for it.
Well, thank you.
All of you.
Good. All right.
Vega, if you don't mind.
[ clears throat ]
[ door opens ]
Hey.
If anything happens to her
today, you know,
And I could have
stopped it...
Matthew, your wife
wants to do this,
And we'll do everything
to keep her safe.
It was a good decision.
You need to trust her
on it, okay?
I'd like to run through
the schematics one more time.
I'm gonna take a -- another
quick look around.
I'll be back very soon.
Okay.
[ loud burst ]
[ woman screams ]
Okay, it's happening.
[ alarm wailing ]
Lisbon: What's happening?
Cho: Smoke in the hallway.
Smoke bomb?
Yeah, probably.
It's okay.
Everybody just stay back.
Good.
All right?
It's a decoy.
He wants the chaos.
We push on.
Let's get into position.
The elevators are gonna
get shut down.
They do that in emergencies.
Okay, jane, I need you to get
down to the van where wylie is.
All right? Take the stairs.
Everybody, let's go.
[ woman screaming ]
[ alarm wailing ]
make your way to the exits!
This is an emergency!
You cannot go back to your room!
Make your way to the exits!
Everyone calm down,
Slow down, take your time!
This is an emergency!
You cannot go back to your room!
Make your way to the exits!
[ alarm continues,
sirens wailing, horns honk ]
[ noises fade ]
[ typing ]
[ siren wailing ]
[ door closes ]
abbott and magath are in
the leased suite on monitor 1.
All right, so how do I
talk to them?
Thank you. Abbott, it's jane.
I'm in the van.
All right, copy that.
Lisbon and cho are
in the bedroom with lily.
Good. So everyone's
accounted for.
Where's vega?
I'm here. I'm in position.
Excellent.
Everyone listen up.
Watch for emergency personnel,
anyone in a uniform.
That's how lydon's coming in.
[ sirens continue wailing ]
[ indistinct conversations ]
[ alarm wailing,
conversations continue ]
Woman: Make your way
to the exits.
We're evacuating the building.
Make your way to the exits.
We are evacuating the building.
Stay calm. Everyone stay calm.
We're evacuating the building.
[ alarm continues wailing ]
[ alarm blaring, door closes ]
Uh, you need to go now.
Copy that.
We're moving out.
Are you good?
I'm good.
Let's go.
[ indistinct conversations ]
[ sirens wailing ]
What do we have here?
Is that him?
Is that him?
Patrick: Hey, lisbon,
West stairwell,
entering the 6th floor.
Could be him dressed as an emt.
I got it.
Don't get too close. Just try
to confirm if it's him.
Jane, I got it. [ coughs ]
Jane, I'm on the 6th floor now.
Yeah -- lisbon, it looks like
he may be at the other end.
Keep going.
Ma'am, you okay?
Woman: Uh, I hurt my ankle.
Which one is it?
All right, we're gonna need you
to reach out here, okay?
You're gonna be okay.
Follow me.
Lisbon: Jane, it's not him.
Abbott: We're headed down
to the 7th floor.
[ door closes ]
Abbott, by no means
rushing you,
But if things get tight,
we may have to rethink things.
Good to know you're not
rushing me.
[ shouting indistinctly ]
[ device clicks ]
Jane, the lights went out.
Yeah, I, uh, I saw that.
He is there. Be careful.
[ gasps ]
[ radio chatter ]
[ click, burst ]
Help! Help me!
I've been shot!
I got this.
You got it?
All right, I got it.
There's a shooter
in the hotel.
He went downstairs.
Okay, buddy, hold on.
Oh... Oh, tell them
to be careful.
All right. Let me see
where you got hit.
Uhh!
[ body thuds ]
[ grunts ]
[ presses button ]
elevator's in lockdown.
Try the stairway.
[ coughs ]
[ metal zings, clatters ]
Down!
[ bursts ]
[ coughs ]
[ gunshots ]
[ click ]
Suspect is down.
[ laughing ]
We got an agent down.
Service stairwell, 7th floor.
[ groaning ]
Patrick: Everyone all right?
Jane.
That's confirmed.
[ beeping ]
The target's secure.
Great work, team.
Patrick: Did you get that,
lisbon?
Lisbon, where are you?
Yeah. I got it. I'm here.
I'm just getting back
with the team.
It's good news.
Well, here we are.
Cozy.
Lily stoppard
took the stand today.
Testified against
your son kelvin.
We had a positive I.D.
On lydon,
Hard evidence against you
and your family
For five murders
and two attempted murders.
So now you want me
to crack,
Throw a child of mine
under the bus
To save myself?
No.
Good, because I won't.
Someone like you doesn't have
the faintest idea
About the love a parent
has for a child.
You're right, I don't.
But I'm guessing it's what
jamie owen's mom
Felt about him.
And the other five victims.
They had parents, too.
No deals. No bargaining.
You're all gonna go down
together.
It'll be a family trip.
Have you figured it out yet,
belinda?
How your never-miss hit man
missed so badly?
He was close, too.
But we knew that.
That's why we moved lily
out of harm's way
And subbed in one of our own...
Right before his eyes.
Sometimes people just see
what they want to see.
I don't meant to gloat,
but...
[ man speaking indistinctly ]
Hey, vega, you see this?
What?
Oh, uh, sorry, sorry.
Not this.
I meant...
[ battle noises on video game ]
[ gasps ] no way!
Oh, it is so on!
Oh, yeah?
Oh, yeah!
You think?
[ scoffs ] I know!
[ controllers clicking ]
You are going down!
Unh-unh!
Stop!
Man: Watch out! Watch out!
Ha!
Won't happen.
[ gunfire ]
Hey, that's cheating!
[ laughs ]
It's not.
I am so going for you.
It's not gonna happen.
You are going down!
You're gonna lose.
You ready? Ready...
[ rustling ]
There you are.
Here I am.
Yeah.
Ah. Okay.
What's wrong?
[ clattering ]
why?
You must already know.
[ chuckles softly ]
yeah. I-I took you --
You took me off.
Mm-hmm.
On purpose.
You knew that wasn't lydon
on the 6th floor.
You had to have, but you
sent me there anyway.
Yeah, that's right.
I wanted to protect you.
Protect me?
Mm-hmm.
I'm an f.B.I. Agent.
I know.
It's my job.
I know. I'm sorry.
But...What?
You'd do it again?
Yeah. I...
Yep, probably would.
That's a problem.
It's not a problem.
A really big one.
No, it's --
You can't do that. Okay?
You have to let me do my job.
If you can't --
yeah, I understand.
If you can't...
I don't know.
How do we work together?
Well...
We work it out.
