"What's up, Andy?" "We got problems." "The money from the Ramon bust, a chunk of it turned up." "It show up in your house, man?" "Nope." "Okay, so what's the problem?" "lt turned up in your house." "Excuse me?" "Vance got a search warrant..." "...found it in your basement." "l'm being set up." "How do they know it's the same?" "The money we found at Sammy's was stored with cocaine." "The lab ran tests." "Same cocaine." "They set me up." "That means I'm close." "Close to what?" "I don't know." "Look, listen, I need you to take a closer look at Vance." "I want you to start by looking at his partner." "Well, who's his partner?" "Atkins." "Atkins is a plant?" "Yeah, he's been working for Vance." "He was sent here to investigate me." "His first day was your last." "Why would Vance send somebody to investigate you on the day you're retiring unless" "Unless he knew I wasn't retiring." "You think Vance is involved?" "Somebody's working this thing from the inside." "Listen, be careful." "The bureau's got a man looking for you." "His name's Ayolls, you know him?" "No." "From the El Paso office." "Got down there this morning." "AII right, thanks." "So you think there's an inside man?" "What about Atkins?" "l'm not sure." "l'll call you..." "...soon as I know something." "All right, thank you." "They found Conrad Cain's mistress." "Yeah?" "Well, they bringing her in?" "She's dead." "Why this place?" "Why take him to this place?" "A certain lawlessness that lends itself nicely to these affairs." "Where we going?" "To see an old friend." "What's it tell you about me?" "That I don't care." "That you, Knapp?" "As long as you don't pull that trigger." "You should've called." "Would've tidied up the place." "I get you a drink, Mr. Cain?" "How do you know my name?" "Everybody knows your name." "You're Chas Lindbergh." "That's what his Nazi pals called him:" "Chas." "Rich people, what they gain in money they lose in nomenclature." "All those stupid names they walk around with." "Biff." "Bunny." "Chas." "Pedro!" "Have a seat." "What brings you by?" "We're looking for my son." "You're not alone." "Fella came in, started throwing money around like he had it." "Made iob offers to folks handy with a gun." "Some people said yes." "Some said no." "What about you?" "I don't work weekends." "So how many men?" "Five." "What was the job?" "Hunting expedition." "For your boy." "Got a lot of ordnance?" "It's all part of my hugs-for-guns program." "What can I say?" "People love hugs." "What's it gonna be?" "All of it." "And the car." "So how much?" "Not how we do business, Chas." "Give me your number." "I know high people in low places." "How much?" "What?" "What's your cut?" "That's what they call it, right?" "Cut?" "Don't I at least have the right to know what you're making?" "A million." "You're getting gypped." "What?" "A m i l l ion bucks?" "My dad's worth a thousand times that." "Your partner's holding out on you." "We should wait until nightfall." "Be easier to spot an ambush that way." "Agreed. I'll let them sweat it out a little longer before I call." "You screwing me?" "What?" "The money." "What money?" "Million bucks." "You left the kid alone?" "Moron!" "Don't piss me off, kid!" "Come on, kid!" "Almost over." "Mommy and Daddy are on the way." "There's nothing out there!" "It's just jungle." "You need me, kid!" "Come on, now." "Who else is gonna send you home, huh?" "You know how to use one of these?" "Great." "Wait here." "Let's take a walk." "Nice and easy." "Hi." "Ellie." "Have they called?" "No, no, not yet." "is everything okay there?" "Yeah." "Yeah, I'm just waiting by the phone." "Well, look, this is all gonna be over soon." "So, what's it like there?" "Yeah, what's it like?" "It's-- l don't know." "It's-- lt's kind of hard to describe." "I don't know if this the right time, but" "What?" "lf" " If anything should happen" "Ellie." "I lust want you to know I wasn't having an affair with Bill Ross." "Or anybody else, for that matter." "Okay." "It's just" "He was there for me when I needed somebody and you weren't." "All right." "l need you to know that I love you." "And that I have always loved you from the first day I met you." "And I just want you to come home." "Yeah?" "You're in Madeira?" "Like I was saying, someone is putting something in motion." "I understand no one puts anything in motion here without your say so." "I don't know anything about it." "Yeah, here's the thing. I don't have time to play this game so we're gonna jump to the lightning round." "Which means, every time you say "l don't know" I'm gonna kill you." "Okay, okay." "How many?" "Five or six." "Where are they set up?" "Other side of town." "Place called Hospederia EstreIIa del Mar." "The victim is claire phillips, age 39." "Sharp force wound to the neck, right side with transection of the internal jugular vein." "Got multiple stab wounds to chest, abdomen and right thigh." "Multiple incised wounds:" "Scalp, face, neck, chest, and right hand." "That's a defensive wound." "Multiple abrasions:" "upper extremities and hands also defensive wounds." "She didn't go down without a fight." "Why does she look like--?" "After she was murdered, her wounds were cleaned." "Then she was lacquered head to toe with surgical cement." "Why would you do that?" "I wouldn't." "But the person who did might have been trying to preserve the body in a way that made the time of death impossible to determine." "Let's take the stairs." "After you." "You're IA?" "What are you doing?" "Answer me!" "You're IA!" "?" "Answer me!" "Yeah!" "What was your assignment?" "The Sammy Ramon job." "Who specifically?" "First, the department, then King." "You turned up the day he retired." "Surprised me too." "How did Vance get the warrant to search King's basement?" "It was a tip." "One of King's Cl's, Terry Blackwell." "A iunkie!" "He'd tell you his mother's his father if you slipped him a 5." "Yeah, well, his information was good this time." "You think King's dirty?" "No." "Think he's being set up." "By who?" "l don't know." "Maybe Vance." "Someone on the inside though, for sure." "Nobody believes Sammy Ramon." "We found 500 kilos of cocaine and 25.9 million in cash." "Sammy claimed he had 43." "Why did IA believe him?" "Sammy Ramon didn't trust anybody and every morning he took a Polaroid of that cash." "Showed us." "Do you know how much _1 7.1 million weighs?" "It was mostly 20's, so around 9000 pounds." "Can't shove that down your pants." "Didn't make it into evidence for 24 hours." "There were agents left at the house." "There were six agents paired off into teams of two." "Yeah, I was one of them." "l know." "So was King." "So you think we wouldn't notice someone backing up a truck to Sammy Ramon's garage?" "I don't know how it happened." "I just know that it happened." "So why you?" "l was a fresh face, an unknown." "No ties to the department." "I'd worked with King. I had an in." "So why did Vance have such a hard-on for King?" "He didn't." "Not until King announced early retirement." "Get in the car." "Where are we going?" "Going to the source." "We're gonna see Terry Blackwell." "fbi." "How may I direct your call?" "I'm calling to inquire about the reward in the Cain kidnapping." "The reward's currently at $1 O million." "Do you have information, sir?" "Can I help you with something?" "Remember the last time you got out?" "Didn't last two minutes!" "It's dangerous outside these walls." "Much safer in here." "Your friend Otto's here." "You might not trust me but you can trust Otto." "There were two of them." "One was a Mexican, and the other, a gringo." "Can you describe them?" "One was a Mexican, and the other, a gringo." "And what about the boy?" "Never saw the boy." "You speak with either of these men?" "l spoke to the Mexican." "I was looking into the disappearance of a local doctor." "He a suspect?" "Just covering my bases, as you Americans say." "Do you know when they left?" "I was out day before last." "They were gone." "I'd like to see where they were staying." "Let's go." "No reward posted?" "I didn't know there was one." "I guess nothing came in." "Oh, okay." "Oh, I forgot." "I need to send a fax to my office." "You have a fax machine here?" "Next to the coffee maker." "l'll be outside." "Thank you." "Thanks." "I'll be right out." "King." "Terry BIackweII." "My old Cl." "What?" "Working for Vance." "His source on the search warrant." "Blackwell's a junkie." "Vance needed a name for the iudge, he found Blackwell, wrote him a script." "You find Blackwell?" "Somebody made him a hotshot." "is Atkins with you?" "Yeah." "Maybe he can lead you to Vance." "Yeah, well, I'll see what I can do." "How's it going down there?" "Fund one dude, he's more than he seems." "I'm gonna stick with him for a while." "Listen you call me if you get anything on Vance, all right?" "You got it." "Leo!" "Why are you making this so hard on yourself, kid, huh?" "You know I'm gonna find you sooner or later." "Tell you what, kid, you want to play games?" "I'm gonna count to three, and then I'm gonna put a bullet in Otto." "is that what you want?" "!" "One." "Two!" "Where's your God now, huh, Otto?" "I'm surprised he didn't lump between you and that bullet." "Listen up, kid." "I can kill Otto right here, right now or we can get him some help." "lt's up to you." "Listen to me, kid!" "Please!" "Listen to me!" "That's right, kid, listen up!" "Listen real close!" "Run!" "Run for your life!" "Go to hell!" "Save me a seat." "All right, kid!" "Just you and me now." "Get ready to have some fun!" "fbi!" "fbi!" "Take it easy." "You're Latimer King." "I studied your cases at Quantico." "Good ones, I hope." "Oh, this is...." "l'm Sheriff Espinoza." "Ayolls." "Espinoza." "Excuse me." "Sure, sure." "Everything all right with that guy?" "He's running some scam." "I ask why there's no notice of a reward at his office, he says, "What reward?"" "So I check his fax." "Yeah?" "21 2." "That's an fbi fax number." "See where it says "received"?" "Looks like he's sitting down to play a hand." "Yeah, maybe so." "How'd you find this place, Ayolls?" "l arrived yesterday from El Paso." "Started poking around town a bit." "Where'd he go?" "Must've been an important call." "Jaime." "Let's get a trace." "Good afternoon, Jaime." "I'm looking for a friend of yours." "And while you're at it, why don't you tell me where the kid is?" "How many men in the motel?" "Only five." "So how's this work on your end?" "I make introductions, I get a small fee." "Yeah, how much?" "Twelve hundred." "You know these men have been hired to hunt down a child?" "It's not my child." "What'd you say?" "I said it's not my child." "All right." "All right!" "Relax, hey." "Slapped a transceiver on the chassis." "What's the range?" "About 20 miles." "Should be able to track him without a problem." "Okay, I got it." "Let's you and me have a chat." "So, what now?" "We wait for them to move." "So, Knapp, what do you do?" "What do you do when you're not doing this?" "What do you mean?" "Well, personal life?" "Yeah, it's quiet." "Yeah?" "You like that?" "I don't much care for people." "Why?" "Because, on a daily basis they show me the worst of them." "Yeah, you know-- l know what you mean." "You ever been married?" "Almost, once." "There was this girl." "What happened to her?" "She tried to run me over with her car." "See what I mean?" "I found it." "It's an old prison." "Hey!" "Hey, hey, hey!" "We're working here." "I'm gonna call for backup." "It's me." "We located where they're keeping Leopold Cain." "We're en route now." "Let's go." "You get what you pay for." "Russo." "Pop the hood." "Come on now, baby." "Hit it." "Come on, girl." "Hit it again." "You spiteful little bitch!" "You don't start right now, I will turn you into a can opener!" "That's my girl." "All right, hurry up." "Let's go." "So where's this kid?" "And where the hell is that backup?" "It should be here any minute." "Come on, kid!" "Where are you gonna go, huh?" "You can't stay down there all day." "Come on." "Gotcha." "Why'd they do this?" "Don't know." "Who took me?" "Don't know." "I saw you get shot." "l thought you were dead." "Yeah, that's what the doc said." "They were gonna kill me." "You did good." "So think you can stand up and walk on that?" "Good. I'm gonna take you to see your father." "He's here?" "Yeah." "Let's go." "All right." ""Dear Conrad if you got this letter, it means I am dead. "" "l opened-- -l don't feel like writing this." "Hi, Alice." "Hi." "Conrad got a letter from Claire Phillips." "Claire Phillips is dead." "She wrote it in the event of her death." "People really do that?" "She says that she fell in love with someone named Emerson Jaynes and then she realized that he was using her to get to Conrad." "We need to find something on him." "We've heard that name before." "Emerson Jaynes played with his trains..." "...but not when it rains." "What?" "It's a children's book." "I remember it from when I was a kid." "Right." "Yeah, there was a boy...." "l know, in the book." "It was about a little boy named Emerson Jaynes." "Why don't you go see if you still have that book. I'd like to look at it." "Okay." "Mrs. Cain, you said there was a boy?" "In the hospital when Leo was there." "He was in the next room and his mother used to read him that book." "Oh, God." ""Emerson Jaynes played with his trains..." ""...but not when it rains." ""l have too many brains to play with my trains when there are puddles of mud and drizzling drains."" "We were late for this dinner party. and we couldn't find Leo anywhere so Conrad" " My husband, Conrad." "he went downstairs to the pool." "And when I got there, Leo wasn't breathing." "Come on!" "Breathe" " Okay." "Okay." "And then we rushed him to the hospital just to be sure." "And the doctors told us that we were lucky because if we hadn't, we wouldn't have found out about the hole in his heart." "In Jack's case, it was a baseball game." "Wait, you have a swimming pool in Manhattan?" "Oh, did they tell you about the list yet?" "l lust heard." "lt's a bitch." "Yeah." "They give you this beeper." "I change batteries every day because there's a small window of opportunity." "Once a donor's been identified, you only have a few hours." "I stare at it for hours on end waiting for it to buzz." "I call the service 10 times a day lust to make sure the thing's not broken." "Mostly I sit and wait for some kid somewhere to die." "I know how that must sound, but...." "Well, no sense in beating around the bush." "Let's call it what it is." "How long have you been on this list?" "Eleven months, 1 3 days." "You'll get one too." "Do you know whatever happened to them?" "No." "I can't find that book anywhere." "I will help you find it." "You don't look so good." "Look who's talking." "You okay?" "Yeah, I'll manage." "Looks like our backup's here." "Call El Paso, tell them we got a 735." "I'm on it." "What exactly is a 735?" "Because I just made it up." "Give me the gun, real slow." "Turn around." "What happened to Agent Ayolls?" "He died this morning." "How many in the van?" "Five." "God." "Andy, this is not a good time." "Listen, it was Vance." "What?" "lt was Vance." "He's been working this whole thing from inside." "We're at his place now." "We found everything." "Detailed ledgers, dates, numbers, everything." "Why?" "How the hell should I know?" "Where is he now?" "We can't find him." "Then I gotta go." "I gotta call you back." "King!" "Give me a gun." "Stay here, don't move." "Virgil!" "Not a word." "Leo." "Dad!" "You're" " You're okay."
