"Mr. Mccourt, you're sure you have no knowledge of decima?" "I already answered that." "Why do you keep beating that drum?" "Because they're protecting you." "Protecting me?" "A minute ago you said they were trying to kill me." "I did." "Something doesn't add up." "Actually I think it might." "I looked into your finances earlier today, congressman." "You did what?" "I noticed your stock portfolio," "Up 20% over last year." "What are you getting at?" "Your trading activities." "Your portfolio is up 20% due to trades" "You've made in the last two weeks." "Trades that have increased in value by over 600%." "So?" "So..." "Either you're the smartest investor in washington," "Or you're getting some very good information." "Inside information." "I don't like what you're implying." "It's more than an implication, congressman," "And it'll become a call to an s.E.C. Investigator I know" "Unless you're more truthful with us." "Okay." "I know decima technologies." "But they're not trying to kill me." "We have an understanding." "What kind of an understanding?" "They were looking for a little legislative support" "For their new surveillance program." "Support?" "You've been leading the charge against government surveillance." "CourseI have." "'cause I realized that the government" "Can't keep a secret." "You look at, uh, prism and this northern lights mess." "What do you know about decima's program?" "Not much really." "Justthatit 'san alternative to a government-run system." "Which, at this point, should make everybody happy." "And in return for your support," "You're getting insider stock tips." "You're a couple of smart guys, you know?" "Surely you understand" "That everything that happens in washington is a deal." "(reese) and you're a deal maker." "In case you didn't know," "The business of governments is business." "[sirens blaring]" "They're moving grid to grid through the neighborhood." "We need to make a move." "Greer is positioning samaritan to replace the machine." "Mccourt is helping decima." "We've been looking at him as a victim," "But he's really a perpetrator." "I'm not so sure." "His involvement is tangential at best," "And he doesn't know greer's intentions." "But if he's not a victim or a perp," "Then why did the machine give us his number?" "What is it we're supposed to be stopping?" "I'm not sure we're supposed to be stopping anything." "Finch, you said mccourt could speed up or halt legislation." "Yes, he's in a unique position to remove" "Any legislative roadblock to samaritan." "So without mccourt," "Samaritan doesn't get past congress." "And greer wouldn't get access to the nsa's surveillance feeds." "Then that's why we got his number." "He is the victim." "His life is in danger." "But from who?" "Us." "I think the machine wants us to kill mccourt." "John, think about what you're saying." "I have." "Just because decima is not" "The threat to mccourt doesn't mean that we must be." "The machine is designed to save lives, not take them." "But could it?" "Could the machine ever tell us to kill someone?" "Is it possible?" "It's conceivable." "Well, how bad would the situation have to be?" "Bad." "It would have to see that an individual's actions" "Could directly result in the loss of others' lives." "How many lives?" "A dozen, a hundred?" "How many?" "A lot." "I'm not sure." "I never dreamt it would come to this." "Well, it has." "Your machine-- it sees something coming" "Something bad-- and it wants us to stop it." "I don't know." "You don't know that." "Look, I've never entirely trusted your machine," "But you built it, and I trust you." "You're the one who said we can't underestimate" "The threat of samaritan." "Mr. Mccourt," "You have to call off your deal with decima." "Their surveillance program cannot be approved." "What--what are you, one of those privacy nut jobs?" "Is that what this is about?" "With access to the government's surveillance feeds," "Decima will be able to acquire any information," "Any secret it desires," "And sell it to the highest bidder." "And that would be the United States government." "Perhaps, for now." "But unbridled access will create" "Unlimited opportunities for abuse." "People will be ruined, lives will be lost." "The results will be nothing short of catastrophic." "These programs are always gonna be controversial" "But also inevitable." "People get up in arms whenever they go public," "But eventually the noise dies down," "Because the simple truth is that people wanna be protected." "They just don't wanna know how." "Oh, maybe I haven't offered you the right incentive." "So how much?" "Excuse me?" "To withdraw your support for decima's program, how much?" "Hey, you know, I did this to keep the country safe." "And yeah, maybe I got a little something for myself" "During the process." "All that makes me is good at what I do." "I'm not calling off the deal." "Looks like we've got company-- s.W.A.T., feds, the works." "Mr. Reese, it was never my intention" "For people to be killed because of the machine." "What do you think happened when it gave the government" "A terrorist number?" "What do you think we used to do for a living?" "That man is not a terrorist." "He's just an opportunistic and corrupt pawn." "That doesn't make the threat any less real." "We are not assassins." "We protect people." "Isn't that what we're doing," "Sacrificing the life of one to save the lives of many?" "Shaw, help me out here." "Six months ago, I would've already put a bullet" "In that guy's head." "But ever since hanging around you guys," "I've kind of gotten used to saving people." "But we've only been able to do that by trusting the machine." "And if it's saying that this guy's gotta go," "Well, I think we should still trust it." "John, I urge you to consider the consequences of this action." "There are consequences to not acting." "Like with simmons and joss." "Don't do this." "If we let him walk out that door, decima wins." "Samaritan will go live." "It's a possibility but not a certainty." "There may be another way." "We've never been here." "But are you really willing to take that risk?" "Harold?" "Since we started this, things have changed." "We've changed." "But the mission, our purpose, has always been constant" "To save lives." "If that's changed somehow, if we're in a place now" "Where the machine is asking us to commit murder..."
