"In New York City's war on crime the worst criminal offenders are pursued by the detectives of the major case squad." "These are their stories." " I'm little out of my element." "Is your girlfriend... classic or a little more kinky?" " She's both." " Well, which one do you like?" "I like the red one." " The faster it comes off, the more she'll love it." " No, man, you first." " War's blood and guts." "Kill more of them than they kill you, you win." "That's why here at Ascalon Security we teach hostage rescue, human intel, wet work... the whole nine." " Terrence..." "This is a wonderful facility." "But we are now more concerned with Internet security issues." " That's why we started on a cyber warfare division, buddy." " Iran, Egypt, Tunisia, Libya..." "Thousands of demonstrators pulled to the streets from Facebook and Twitter." "We have our own radicals." " Senor mendoza, I've trained armed forces in half a dozen Latin American countries." "I'll give you computers are important..." "But computers don't kill people." "People kill people." " The war of tomorrow is being fought today." "The stuxnet computer virus sets back Iran's nuclear enrichment programs five years, direct proof that war as we know it is over." "Sun tech's programming teams create offensive strategies such as data deletion and the targeted spread of viruses." "As well as measures to ensure our own infrastructure."

"So you folks from defense, NSA, CIA, you can all use sun tech to help you guard" "America's cyber security." " You sure you don't want to come in?" "It's raining." " No, we're fine." "Thanks." " Send the malware protection contract for Stewart to vet, and set up a 4:00 p." "M. With Harvey in case he cancels again." " I'm warning you." "Stay away from mendoza." " The man needs computers, not the G.I. Joe crap you're selling." "Big fish eat little fish, Naomi." " Hey, I'm up here." "Where are you?" "Crash!" "What was that?" "Oh, my God!" "He landed on the cab." "Presumably falling from this building." "All he had was some cash and an I.D. Badge from Ascalon Security." "Ascalon?" "You've heard of Ascalon." "Send out mercenaries all over the world." "Got into trouble for civilian casualties." " Yeah." "That's why we called you guys." "The name on the I.D. Is Ian masefield." " Thanks." " It's a kanji tattoo." "I remember them from when I was stationed in Korea back in the '90s." " Jumper?" " See the fresh bruising on the back of his hand?" " That's a high fall." "Partial shoeprints." "Two sets." "Looks like there was a struggle." "Can you plaster these, please?" " The..." "Lingerie." " Box is crushed." " Looks like it was part of the same struggle." " The railing didn't do much good." " Yeah..." "White powder." "Dirt." "Dirt." "Dirt." "Climbing chalk." "Used for parkour." " Urban climbing." " Somebody scaled onto this deck from below." " See the shape of the bruising?" "Crushed knuckles, broken fingers." " Somebody stomped his hands while he was hanging onto the roof." " Partial shoeprint." "Lab matched the tread." "They're parkour climbing shoes." "Fivefinger kos, size 9." " You're victim's feet were size 12." "Weighed in at 180." " The killer was a lot smaller than the victim." " The realty company's faxing us all apartment owners with access to the roof." "The negligee's by coquin..." "We're waiting on their retail outlets." " The negligee." "Any chance this was a lover's quarrel?" " Climbing chalk on the adjacent wall?" "The killing was premeditated." " Chalk on a wall." "That's pretty thin evidence." " The victim, Ian masefield, had an I.D. Badge from ascalon securities' cyber warfare division." " Ascalon Security has gotten over a billion in government contracts in the last two years." " Yeah, right." "My nephew worked for them in kabul." "Real Alpha dogs." " As usual, it's all about the money." "The war on terror turned into the war for big fat contracts." " If cyber warfare is the next cash cow, then Ian was an asset." " Sorry." "I'm good with faces, bad with names, you know?" " Our lucky day." " Oh." "Okay." "Ian masefield." "I do recognize him." "Gee." "Sorry he died." "He just joined our cyber warfare division." " Cyber warfare?" "That's a big leap from boots on the ground." " Yeah." "In this business, you either grow or die." "It's obvious that computers are a component to modern warfare." " Ian must not have been a big player, otherwise you'd know his name." " So why would someone want to kill him?" " I have no idea." " Who'd he work for last?" " I have employees and independent contractors all over the world." "You'd have to ask the human resources department that." " We'll need Ian's home address, please." " Ma'am, we're detectives with the New York City major case squad." "Does Ian masefield live here?" " Oh, no." "He doesn't." " This is the address he gave his employer." " He's a friend of my son's." "He uses my house as a mailing address." "What's this about, anyway?" " We're sorry to say that Ian was murdered last night." " Oh, God, that's terrible." "Please come in." "I only met him three or four times when he was picking up his mail." "I think he was from Milwaukee." "Not really sure." " Why use your home as a mailing address?" " Ian traveled all the time." "Something with computers." "I don't really understand computers." " How did your son know him?" "Did they meet at school?" " Matt makes a lot of friends." " You, uh..." "Home-schooled your son?" " Yes, I did." " Yeah, I just see you have all the materials that the state requires." "But hegel and Marcus aurelius?" "Schopenhauer?" "It's hardly required." " Matt got through the high school curriculum by age 12." "We still debate immanuel kant over breakfast." " Where is he right now?" " Never know where that boy is." "Last email said he was trekking the inca trail in Peru." " Well, lookthanks." "We're sorry about his friend." " Let's run Matt Clark, see if he can tell us about his buddy." " Pretty sophisticated." " Matt is a black hat hacker?" " There's nothing here." "No address book." "No connection to Ian." " Connection?" "How about a really close connection?" "Matt Clark is Ian." " So we just told elise Clark her son was dead?" " And she didn't even flinch." " I rented this place to elise for the last 12 years." " Cash?" "Month-to-month?" " Yeah." "How'd you know?" "Elise!" "You home?" "Elise?" " Closet's empty." " She's gone." " Wonder what she's running from." "So, Matt Clark was working at Ascalon Security as Ian Masasefield." "The question is why?" "After we told Matt's mother that he'd died, she disappeared." "Elise Clark has a social security number, driver's license." "Lived in new Jersey for 12 years." "No police record." "So why is she in the wind?" "She must have known what he was up to." "He had hacking equipment in his apartment." " Okay." "But what was he doing on the roof that night?" " Realty company sent over a list of apartment owners in the building." "One's owned by sun tech industries." " Sun tech is a company that specializes in cyber warfare." " We checked Matt Clark's tax records." "Until a month ago, guess who his boss was." " Matt Clark." "Yes, he worked for me." "That's horrible." " The property manager says" "Matt had access to your corporate penthouse." " From which he fell to his death." " Yes, Matt sometimes met with out-of-town clients at the corporate apartment." " She was pretty high level." " It seems like in today's world" "Matt would be the Robert Oppenheimer of the computer age, you know?" "Inventing an h-bomb virus on his laptop." "Y- you must have been angry to lose him." " These things happen." "He had a dozen other companies chasing him too." " I-is this an exceptional service medallion?" " It's my late husband." "He was killed in Afghanistan." " Sorry." " Seems odd..." "Matt would be on the roof of your snazzy apartment while he was working for ascalon." "We found a slinky little nighty up there too." " You're kidding, right?" "I'm dating a hedge fund manager." " That's not what we were implying at all." "We're just saying if you were to plant him at ascalon, then you'd have like a double agent thing going and..." "Well, then, you'd have a mole in your rival's company." " He steals data." "Gives you info on pending government contracts." " Yes." "He was still working for me." " Matthew Clark." "Nope." "I don't recognize the name." " Ring any bells?" " Ian masefield." "Okay." "That's a surprise." " You know he worked for sun tech?" " Give Naomi credit." "She knew I started a cyber division." "She planted him as a mole." " Sun tzu." ""All warfare is deception."" " All right." "She punked me, okay?" "But I didn't kill Ian... or Matt or whatever his real name is." "I was in mezzo that night with ten other people." " But he stole from you." "I mean, there are potentially billions of dollars at stake." " Yeah." "I'll be looking into that the minute you guys leave." " Consider us gone." " This is the information Matt hacked from ascalon's files." " How many pages of documents on these hard drives?" " Over 50,000." "The cops'll definitely subpoena this stuff." " Good." " We're coquin's only u." "S. Retail store." " Remember him?" " Oh, for sure." "He was pretty tall, kinda cute." "He had two friends with him, big guys, kinda awkward." "They were standing next to the door." " What did he buy?" " A negligee." " Which one?" " Uh..." "This one." "He had a hard time deciding between this and classic black." "Then he called like an hour later and ordered the black one too, and that one we delivered." " I love this place." " I'm totally devastated by this." "We were good friends." " Friends with benefits?" " What's that got to do with anything?" " Did you know that he worked for a private security firm under the name Ian masefield?" " He worked at sun tech." " What do you do, Rebecca?" " I teach a krav maga class at crunch." " Israeli self-defense." " You're a sabra." "And you like computers too, just like Matt." " Oh, that's just a hobby." " Diplomatic cables between Egypt and Washington." "That's a fun hobby." " These are just something I downloaded." "Look, I have to go teach a class." " Oh." "Okay." "Well, thanks for your time." " You're welcome." " You better cancel krav maga." "You have confidential cables and documents all over your apartment." "Once the judge signs our warrant, we'll search your place top to bottom." "Now's your chance to get ahead of it." "Have a seat." " Thanks, man." " What's on your wrist?" " A tattoo." " Your place is filled with hacking gear." " The gear's legal." " Same stuff that Matt had." "And same tattoo." "Was your affiliation with him..." "Did that go beyond friends with benefits?" " No." "It didn't." " You were in the Israeli army." "Gadsar." "That's an elite unit." "It's tougher than the rangers, spetsnaz." "You studied krav maga, urban combat." "Wow." "I bet you really could scale a city wall." " We took a plaster cast of shoeprints from the roof where Matt was killed." "Will we find parkour shoes in your apartment?" " I wouldn't kill Matt." "We had the same goals." " Which were what?" " Destroy the contractors." "Ascalon, sun tech, halliburton, Blackwater..." "All the warmongering bastards." " Rebecca Landon claims she and Matt Clark were both out to steal classified data from private security companies." " To what end?" " They believe these companies break the law with impunity." "Making their secrets public is the goal." " So Matt went to work for Naomi who used him as a mole against Terrence Brooks." " Yeah, but we think that Matt had his own agenda." "And he... seized the opportunity to try and bring both companies down." " Matt Clark is connected to..." "Naomi, Terrence, and Rebecca." "And I have a migraine." " Well, there's one other person... his mom..." "Who wouldn't be a person of interest if she hadn't disappeared the minute we told her" "Matt had died." " The question is who killed Matt?" " If we knew what data Matt stole from Terrence, we might have a definite motive." " All right." "Then throw a subpoena on sun tech." "Let's see what we get." " Rebecca Landon was one of a select group of anonymous sources providing classified information to websites like wikileaks..." "Same as Matt Clark." " Matt was my employee." " Matt played you." "Just like he played Terrence, which gives you motive." " You got a subpoena, all right?" "Everything Matt lifted from Terrence is on those drives." " Which was what, exactly?" " Matt found his poison pill." "Terrence's protection." " Poison pill." "I like that." "A poison pill." "So... so Terrence holds documents that could damage his enemies, and he threatens to release them publicly in the event of his death?" " His life insurance." " And Matt took it away." " All right, Chelsea square diner." "You guys hungry?" "Come on." "They're open all night." "Oh, yes." "Yes, yes, yes, yes." "These are the components we collected at the site." "Y- you traced the partial lot number on this piece of battery?" " Energizer sent shipments of that lot to three different walmarts..." "In greenwich, new haven, and Fairfield." " Wow." "Your teams are already there, huh?" " Set off a bomb in New York, even a rinky dink like this, you'll get our attention." "We've got surveillance tapes from Walmart and two dozen ATF and FBI agents already in Connecticut." " This bomb is... old-school." "You know?" "Like it's out of the '70s." " Naomi Halloran told us" "Matt was stealing secrets from your company." " I'm sure she was very pleased with herself." " Matt..." "Takes your secrets." "Which include files of hundreds of people who have thousands of secrets to hide." "Now, those files..." "They act as your life insurance." "What do they... what do they call it?" " A poison pill?" " Right, poison pill." "Now, Matt, he takes your poison pill." "Now, what he knew could kill you." "Actually, you know what, that actually gives him a very good motive." " Look..." "You guys have my alibi." "I didn't kill anyone." " So Naomi's trying to frame you?" " Naomi's not stupid enough to accuse me of murder." " She has a grudge, doesn't she?" "Her late husband John Halloran." "Wasn't he a CIA station chief in kabul?" "He was killed because of a suicide bomber." "Got in the building." "He was posing as an informant." "Now, wasn't your company ascalon supposed to be protecting that station?" " It was a real tragedy." " Maybe she holds you responsible for his death." " Oh, please." "John was a great soldier." "He was a lousy husband." "He screwed anything that moved, and she was bitter as hell about it." "Naomi and I fight over government contracts." "Period." " I loved John." "We had difficulties like any couple in the military, but Terrence Brooks is a liar." " Terrence claims he was clueless about Matt's agenda to steal his secrets." " He was." " Were you clueless Matt was stealing from you?" "Come on, he was working with hackers who published stolen documents on the web." " We've never had a document leak." "Not one." " We'll verify that." " Okay." "If I wanted to kill him..." "Not my style, by the way..." "But if I did, why would I have hired bodyguards to follow him after work every day?" "You seriously thought that I would put one of my most valuable employees in Terrence's company without protection?" " But they were gone when he went to the roof that night." "Otherwise, he'd still be alive." " He must have sent them home." "I guess he wanted to be alone." "Make sure we get those calls sent today." "I don't want the time getting away from us." " Pretty smart." "You know, it's one thing to try and frame me with a poison pill, but you could have killed me with that amateur bomb of yours." " That wasn't me." "You know, your company's killed thousands of people all over the world." "It ever occur to you that maybe somebody's looking for some payback?" " Was there anything on the hard drives that Naomi gave us that would give Terrence a reason to kill Matt?" " I'm barely through half of it." "There's thousands of pages, but nothing that incriminates any major contractor." "No poison pill." " Okay." " Hold on a minute." "Naomi says Matt was working for her." "Terrence has an alibi for the night of the murder." "Rebecca is on Matt's team." "So unless they're having a lover's quarrel, she has no clear motive." " Uh, Stan, do me a favor." "Look up the kanji tattoos that were on Rebecca and Matt's wrists." " You called it, goren." "Those kanji symbols are the hallmark of the people's liberation brigade." " Those were the dickwads who tried to blow up the bull statue on wall street" "'75, '76." "I was on mayor beame's detail back then." " So if Rebecca's with this group, makes sense she'd hold Terrence responsible, try to blow him up." " We saw her place." "She's a 21st century revolutionary." "No bombs." "Just computers." "Now see if you can bring up, uh..." "The FBI mug shots from the pl brigade fugitives." "We need to find Matt's mom." " You ran the minute we told you mattas dead." "You set off a bomb in New York City and think you can hide in new haven?" "It took atf agents less than six hours to track you down." " You tried to kill Terrence Brooks with the same exact bomb you used to blow up the bull in '76." " He killed my son." " What makes you so sure?" " The man's a mass murderer." "He's killed hundreds of civilians the world over." " Your son." "The..." "Tattoo on your wrist..." "Makes it clear that you and Matt had the same ideals." "You home-schooled him." "You taught him Marx and mao, turned him into a revolutionary." " Mm." "Beats being a cop." " Matt was extremely..." "Intelligent." "He hacked into ascalon's computers and..." "Stole thousas of files." " He had 170 iq." "He was a genius." "And Terrence Brooks killed him." " Why Terrence Brooks?" "Matt undoubtedly stole from Naomi too." " She wouldn't kill him." " 'Cause boots on the ground isn't her thing?" " Because they were lovers." "Did you know that Matt was sleeping with Naomi Halloran?" "No." "That would be a betrayal of the cause." "Yes." "Matt's mother told us that they were having a relationship." "But he was buying you sexy lingerie." " The warrant came through." "We searched your apartment." "We found parkour shoes, size 9." " I didn't kill Matt." " What happened?" "Something happened to you." " My friend is dead." " Take a break." "We're digging a dry hole." "Her answers have been rehearsed." "She's been coached." " Where are we at with the shoeprints?" " Labs'll be back within the hour." " Which will bring nothing, because there's probably been hundreds of size 9 sold." " Any sunshine here?" "You can't put Naomi at the scene, and assassination's not her m.O." " No." "It's Terrence's." " Half his employees would kill someone if he told them to, but [Stammers] Why would he?" " Even if Rebecca threw Matt Clark off the roof, someone ordered her to do it." " And for some reason, he had no bodyguards to protect him." " How goes it, Stan?" " I've been throrough 80% of the stolen documents, and I've got nothing incriminating..." "Just more internal memos, innocuous emails." " Keep going." " No..." "Don't bother." " There's still 8,000 pages." " There is no enemy trying to take Terrence out." "We have a grieving mother and no poison pill." "I mean, all of our document analysis is designed to waste our time." "You didn't even flinch when we told you that Matt had died." "I guess..." "You know, all the lying and hiding you've been doing..." "Playing it cool when a cop pulls you over, gives you a ticket, you know..." "Been doing that stuff since the '70s." "You're tough, you know." "Any normal mother would have broken, but you..." "You... you keep it together." " Do you have a question, detective?" " Here's one." "What'd you do after we left?" "Did you cry then?" " Here's one for you." "Do you believe in anything beyond that badge?" "Anything?" " Well, I-I guess..." "I believe that victims need an advocate." " And you have me in a cell?" "I've spent my entire life fighting for the victims of racism, of imperialism, of the blind selfishness of capitalism." "Was it worth it?" "Did you bring down the warmongers and the bankers?" "Did your..." "Revolution crush the capitalist system?" "They're all still there." "But your son's gone." "This revolution..." "Was it worth his life?" "Look, I-if you want justice for Matt, if you wanna bring down a warmonger," "I" " I need your help." " How?" " I've advised my client that he's not under arrest and that this is just an informal meeting." " No, of course, right." "We appreciate you coming in." " Captain, I've already told your detectives all I know." " Well, I just wanted to see where things are at with the case." "Have a seat." " So, captain, Terrence Brooks here, he..." "He protects American assets all over the world." "You know, embassies, diplomats, politicians abroad." "He doesn't do it for the money, do you?" "You... you're..." "A patriot." " That's very nice." "You clearly know all the moves." "But..." "Then you were army intelligence, weren't you, detective?" " He's also a former Navy seal, so he knows about interrogation techniques too." " Pride and ego." "Very effective." "I would have started with the direct approach, but..." "Good." " Okay." "Fine." "How's this?" "You killed Matt Clark, and you had help." " That's direct." " What is he doing here?" " We were told this was an informal meeting." " Yes, it is." "I'm captain Joseph Hannah." "Do you mind?" " Hi." "Well, we're just gonna..." "You know, lay it all out for you and... and, uh, tell you where we are." "We found hard drives with data..." "Stolen by Matt Clark, aka Ian masefield." "Now, Matt belonged to..." "A group of computer thieves." " Who were stealing what?" " Information." "Specifically your information." " Makes 'em traitors, right?" " Where did you find these hard drives?" " Naomi gave them to us." "She told us that Matt stole them from Terrence." "We think that Terrence gave them to her." " Are you crazy?" " Matt would hack information from the various companies he infiltrated." "Which..." "Wasn't hard, apparently." "You both hired him, right?" " Well..." "Matt's skills were impressive." "He was clean-cut, you know, well-spoken, and, uh..." "Charming." "So he gave these hacked files to Rebecca Landon." "Rebecca made sure that it was published on wikileaks." "And wikileaks sent it..." "Well..." "Everywhere." " Is there a charge lurking in this miasma of speculation?" " So Naomi, she gave us these 50,000 ascalon documents." "Oof." "She told us that they were Terrence's..." "Poison pill." "And it's a lotta stuff." "'Cause in actual fact, it's just thousands of pages of useless information to mire us, designed to waste our time and expose nothing." "And that's when I knew." " What?" "What did you think you knew, detective?" " The two of you..." "You teamed up." " Oh, this is ridiculous." " Well, there was a lot at stake." "I mean, it would have been ridiculous not to." " I wouldn't kill Matt Clark over stolen documents." " That's right." "A- and killing's not your style." " Don't say anything." " It's tough to meet a man in New York." "Who could measure up?" "To your intellect, your income?" "It would have to be someone very special." " Yeah." "I think we'll end this." " Matt was special." "He was handsome." "And he was a genius." "Or close." "And you were in love." " Okay." "I see." "The omnipotent "we know everything" technique." " No, no." "It's you that knows everything." "I mean, you told Naomi that Matt was sleeping with Rebecca." "He told you that Matt was a lying, cheating dog like your late husband." "That must have made you crazy." "Uh, captain?" " Ladies and gentlemen... to th." " Our cell was small." "Four people." "Just me, Matt," "Rebecca, and her husband." " Rebecca has a husband?" " I won't tell you his name." "He's like Matt." "He infiltrates." " So Rebecca and Matt, their relationship was platonic." " I'd have been thrilled if he'd fallen in love with someone like Rebecca." " So Matt had no sexual relationship of any kind with Rebecca Landon." " No." "Just Naomi." "He called it love." "I called it treason." " Matt made a purchase at la petite coquette the day that he died." "He bought a negligee... for you." " An hour later, someone called the shop and had one sent to Rebecca Landon, but it wasn't Matt." "There are no records from his phone that he called the shop." "It was Terrence setting you up." " You motherf... - Be cool, Naomi!" " You're right!" "It was him." "He told me that Matt was sleeping around, that he was just like John, and I lost it, I..." "I called off the bodyguards." "That's all I did." " Shut up." " That's all you did..." "Was get the guy who loved you..." "Killed." "He betrayed his own cause because he loved you, and that cost him his life." "Well, maybe you should mull that over for the next 25 years in prison for murder conspiracy." "Well, she's confessed." "How about you?" " This woman has libeled Mr. Brooks for years." "I'd love to put her on the stand." " We don't need Naomi's testimony to convict your client." "See, we were just looking for her confession." "Boots on the ground." "That's your slogan, isn't it?" " Yep." " These boots..." "We matched them to shoeprints at the murder scene." "They're Rebecca's." " So?" " You couldn't send one of your own employees." "Too much money at stake if they got caught." "So you sent a proxy." "I hear that you have family in Israel." "How they doing?" "You have a brother and sister back there?" "Cousins?" "Nieces?" "Nephews?" " I got a call..." "From Terrence Brooks." "He told me my 12-year-old cousin had just died, a hit-and-run." "The next time Terrence called, I did what he asked." " Which was what?" " Naomi called Matt to the roof where they sometimes met." "I was there instead." "He tried to fight back." " But he's not a trained fighter." " It was him or my family." "My God..." "What have I done?" " He put you in a position that no one should have to face." "He's a monster." " Matt was in the business of putting you out of business." "So he needed to die." "You had an innocent 12-year-old girl killed to force Rebecca to kill Matt." "But at the least you're going to prison." "Rebecca's testifying against you." " These two, then Rebecca, and elise Clark." " Everybody goes to jail." " I thought about what you said." "You know, I'm not afraid..." "I mean, maybe I am, but you were right, you know." "I" " I... my world is treacherous." " I need you to sit." " I have this friend, Louis." "He works on cars." "He told me that the biggest mistake that people make is they have an old car." "It's worn down." "It stalls all the time." "They get the transmission flushed, clean out all the gunk, you know." "But they kill it." "You see, all that gunk, it was there for a reason." "It was there to plug up all the holes." "Car never runs again." " You're afraid if you get into this with me, you'll stop functioning?" " Y-you're gonna say you won't allow that to happen because..." "You know, I can trust you." " I wouldn't presume to tell you who to trust." "I do think it's interesting that you likened yourself to an old car." "Cars don't feel." "They stop and..." "Reflect." "They're made to work, to go." " Um..." "My mother..." "She, you know..." "Did her best to take care of me." "But she was mentally ill." "Schizorenic." " You were only a boy?" " How old were you when you first realized your mommy wasn't like all the other mommies?" " Seven." " Were you ashamed?" " And frightened." "It's... it's my turn." " Detective?" " I've talked to someone about this before." " In therapy?" " No." "In the interrogation room." "I..." "I betrayed my family." "I pimped out my family to get a... a confession." "You did what you had to." "You always have." "And I don't think you betrayed your mother." "But what have you done for her son?"
