"[ Door closes ]" "How'd we do?" "Well, we planted 10 trackers on the cars." "Most of them belong to regular criminal employee types, so, you know, they're going to their restaurants and the drug neighborhoods, but a few of them took a big detour." "All through here, trying to make sure they weren't followed, all the way out here." "I mean, there's nothing around that for miles." "Looks like a good place to stash a kidnapping victim."

"And he's nowhere." "[ Sighs heavily ]" "Let's just focus on what's in front of us." "How can we get to the girl?" "Well, any land approach is gonna be visible for miles, and approaching by boat is just as bad 'cause they can see the whole Bay." "No boat." "No car." "I guess we'll just have to figure out something else." "You found her?" "What are we doing here, then?" "We should be going in -- we can't just go in guns ablaze." "You don't understand, Mr. Westen." "I've defended a lot of people in this town, a lot of people with serious resources and manpower." "Yes, and the kidnappers know that, and that's probably why they picked this location." "Why are we even talking about this?" "If there's no way to get in -- if we can get in unseen by water and get out quietly, we should be fine." "How do you propose to do that?" "I need you to call one of your drug-cartel clients and ask to borrow one of their submersible vehicles they use to bring in cocaine."

"He'll be prepared, and you'll just get me killed." "All right, fine." "The last thing you said you'd handle was Jesse Porter."

"You said " "I said I needed you to make sure that you didn't tell anybody about the plan!" "And you talked to your ex-wife -- a move that almost got me and your daughter killed!"

"No." "I'm not gonna let a murderer use a little girl to get out of doing time." "Then how?" "We make Dale think that his brother's free just long enough to get your daughter back."

"Yeah, I'm, uh, not too interested in having a conversation right now." "Just hear her out, all right, Jesse?" "I've been baking in the sun for an hour." "I'm tired, I'm out of cigarettes, and I'm not gonna be hauling my ass all over Miami looking for you anymore." "If you don't like what she has to say, then, I don't know, shoot her." "Shoot both of us." "All right." "That sounds fair enough." "What do you want?" "Well, getting you burned was an accident." "Michael was looking for information." "We didn't know it would hurt you." "We lied to protect you." "Maybe that was wrong, but we did it for the right reasons." "Is that what this is about?" "You're here to make excuses?" "No, I'm here because we're still going after Barrett." "I'm here because we need your help." "[ Scoffs ]" "I know you're angry." "The fact is, it wasn't all lies." "We are your friends."

"(Michael) Contracting requirements mean specs for most government vehicles are easily available." "If you want to build a prison transport van, for example,  you can get most of what you need from public websites."

"So how are you gonna do this, anyway?" "That's my problem." "No, no, no." "My brother, my problem, too, okay?" "Listen -- we got the route." "We hit the van at an intersection on the way to the Courthouse." "We sit back, we watch, we make sure it goes smoothly." "Before we do, though -- yeah, yeah, I got the girl." "At the rendezvous point, because if you try to pull anything -- she'll be there." "Courthouse is only a couple miles away, you know." "We can't do this just anywhere, all right?" "It's under control." "Fire Engines and Ambulances use traffic-control devices to make traffic flow their way." "They're fairly simple -- strobing at a particular frequency that can be picked up by the traffic light." "It's very illegal to use if you're a private citizen,  but remarkably useful if you need to turn a red light green or, with a little rewiring, turn a green light red." "There's a low-traffic street up here." "Good access roads." "We can get away before the cops know what happened, all right?" "All right." "Just make sure nothing goes wrong." "It'll be fine." "We'll stay back here and watch the whole thing." "Spies and magicians use many of the same techniques." "They both know people trust their eyes more than they should." "If they think they know what they're looking at,  they don't look too closely." "A group can help sell the illusion."

"It'll be my payment." "I assume you can take care of that." "Of course." "But what do you want with it?" "That's my business." "(Fiona) Has Jesse shown up yet?" "No." "Michael, maybe you should just go." "I figured there was a good chance he wouldn't show." "It looks like -- I'll wait." "It's our last chance before we go after Barrett."

"I was sitting in my car for the last 10 minutes with your head in the cross hairs of a rifle Wondering if I should shoot the man who ruined my life." "And?" "Still thinking." "Jesse, I'd say I'm sorry, but I can tell you're in no mood for apologies, so I'll get right to the point." "We're going after Barrett." "The meeting is set." "I need you back on the team." "[ Scoffs ] Really?" "Why would I do that?" "If we can take Barrett down, maybe we can get you back into " "that's good." "You know, I'm not a guy that trusts very easily." "I've..." "Never had a lot of friends." "Not close ones, anyway." "I know it's hard to believe, but I am your friend." "And I've always been." "I'm here because this is your investigation, too." "Barrett's gonna expect you at the meeting." "I need you there." "Why?" "So I can watch your back?" "This isn't just about me." "You know Barrett better than anyone." "No, do not throw that back in my face!" "This was my investigation -- mine -- a long time before you got involved, so you don't get to use that against me." "You understand me?" "Now, you want to have your meeting with Barrett, that's fine." "You do what you got to do." "But as far as me and you go..." "I make no promises." "So?" "How'd it go?" "Could've been better." "What does that mean?" "He's not gonna shoot me." "Yet." "Well, that's good." "It's positive." "I like that." "As far as the Barrett meeting is going, I'm on my own." "Okay, well, that's not so good." "Mike, seriously." "There is no way we can pull this off -- it is not something that he's open to discussing." "Okay." "Let's look at the situation here." "You meet with Barrett here." "Fi and I are gonna set up over here by the bridge." "The sub is there." "So you do your thing." "You get Barrett into the cargo hold, take off." "But when this goes down," "Fi and I are gonna block the bridge, you know, with explosives and whatnot, to make sure Barrett's team doesn't come back in." "But that still leaves you alone with Barrett plus two guys." "I got surprise on my side." "This is John Barrett we're talking about." "He's been dealing death for the last decade." "He's not gonna bring -- it's not ideal." "But it's either that or we give up and go home." "Well, I guess we roll the dice." "Any plan to grab a person has to strike a balance between resources and secrecy." "The more resources you bring -- people, weapons, vehicles -- the easier the extraction will be." "At the same time,  the more resources you have in the field,  the higher your risk of exposure." "You can only bring as much manpower and equipment as you can conceal." "Okay." "This is it." "Here he is." "If the circumstances don't allow for much cover,  an extraction can get very risky..." "And very, very lonely." "(Barrett) Well, it's nice to finally meet you in person, Mr. Westen." "The feeling's mutual." "You brought the bible?" "All right." "I'll play." "What exactly do you want?" "I guess you could say I'm looking for work." "Things have been a little lean since I got burned, and when I say "work, "" "I'm not talking about joining the "black t-shirt and sunglasses" squad." "No offense." "Well, once we have the bible, there'll be plenty of work to be done." "I could use someone like you." "Shall we get this started?" "(Sam) Looks like everything is going according to plan." "Are Barrett's men behaving themselves?" "So far." "So let's move on to the second part of the deal." "Tell me about the bible." "Simon Escher's bible." "Let's put it this way -- the people that burned you, that burned Simon?" "They have names, jobs, lives." "They're hidden in all sorts of places -- government, private sector." "And if you know who they are, you can see the possibilities." "So that list is the key to destroying the people who burned me?" "It is." "Had a feeling you might be interested in helping me to do just that." "So Simon..." "Compiled the list as insurance in case things went bad, encrypted with a book code for security." "And when things fell to pieces, he needed someone powerful enough to play this card." "He needed me." "[ Cellphone rings ]" "Yeah?" "Where?" "How many?" "Right." "Well, handle it." "Well, this is getting more interesting." "What angle are you working, exactly?" "What are you talking about?" "The team of men on the road out there approaching my men." "Yours, I assume?" "You thought you could double-cross me?" "[ Tires screeching ]" "[ Gunfire ]" "Fi, this is not good." "I guess Michael's little agreement that Vaughn would steer clear wasn't quite as solid as he thought." "You and I are gonna have a private and very painful conversation." "And you're gonna tell me exactly what is going on here." "Take him!" "Oh, now they got Mike!" "[ Gunshot ]" "Shooting through a friendly to hit a target is a tricky thing to pull off." "There are only a few places on the human body that can take a gunshot without severing a major artery or destroying a vital organ." "He shot Michael!" "What is Jesse doing?" "!" "No, he shot the guy behind him." "He's saving Mike's butt is what he's doing." "Getting shot on the inside of the shoulder won't kill you quickly,  but almost any gunshot will kill you if you give it enough time." "[ Gunfire ]" "[ Bullets ricochet ]" "Who do you work for?" "!" "I'm self-employed." "[ Tires screech ] [ groans ]" "Oh, it hurts?" "!" "Get used to it!" "By the time I'm done with you, you're gonna wish that bullet killed you!" "There's a cold math to blood loss." "The more you lose, the weaker you get." "And when you're on a clock like that, it pays to act,  no matter how desperate your plan might be." "Because if you wait, you may not have the chance." "[ Tires screech ]" "[ Groans ]" "[ Vehicle approaches ]" "[ Footsteps approach ]"
