"Previously on "The Catch"..." "The suspect's name is Kenji Yoshida. powerful people who are using this restaurant as a front for their other interests." "The Bureau is giving you 24 hours to find out as much as you can from Kenji." "Chef asked me to give you this." "We may need to come up with a different strategy." "I have a business proposition for you." "You want to hire us?" "To find out who's trying to kill me." "He's here!" "Gansit Building to the north." "I'm headed there now." "Danny:" "We got him." "Margot:" "He's called "The Hammer." "what now?" "kill me?" "I'm gonna hire you." "Guess who's coming to dinner." "Hey." "This little dinner-party can't happen." "I don't know how long your brother's gonna be in town." "I would like to get to know him." "And that was the first time I killed a man." "and you and Rhys are not the best role models." "Sophie:" "Danny." "What are you doing?" "You're supposed to be investigating not Tommy." "Is there anyone that you trust?" "Danny's a fool." "What happened?" "Where were you?" "I was with Tommy." "I found a keylogger hidden on our security network password..." "We've been hacked?" "I have access to $3 million." "And I need someone in your line of work to help me steal it." "♪♪" "$3 million?" "In an offshore account in my name." "I underestimated you." "I get that a lot." "And you want me to help you...?" "Disappear." "For a while." "new social." "An entirely new you." "Is that something that... someone in your line of work can do?" "For you?" "Of course." "I would be happy to help." "you're practically family." "Rhys." "Which is why I'm only charging you the friends-and-family rate." "Of course. is Alice Vaughan going to be all right with you... disappearing?" "Alice:" "We have to go to the authorities." "the Kincaids... they were not my friends." "They work for an organization called the Southland Cartel." "So the money in that account with your name on it which means it is only a matter of time before the cartel or the feds show up here to either kill you or arrest you." "I'm so sorry." "♪♪" "I shouldn't..." "I should..." "I should never have come here. but now the only thing I can do to help you is get you under federal protection." "who are you calling?" "I have a friend with a contact at the FBI." "I'm gonna see if he can help." "Okay." "Okay." "Thanks." "♪♪" "Ben:" "Come over." "I wish I could." "But you have a roommate now." "So do you." "Yes." "My roommate and I need to ask you a favor." "It's always something with you people." "How do you feel about Agent Diaz? but I'll let you know where it goes." "a good person?" "Where are we going with this?" "Tommy may need to talk to someone." "now may not be the best time for me to be asking for favors." "What did you do?" "Why do you assume it was me?" "it was me." "Hmm." "I lost the first target she assigned us." "You lost him?" "He may or may not have moved back to Japan because I suggested it." "And what was your thinking there?" "Do you want me to ask Justine or not?" "Would you mind?" "We can meet her tonight." "I'm worried if we wait longer... ♪♪" "you there?" "♪♪" "He's gone." "Tommy's gone." "Any word?" "He hasn't called or texted." "Because his phone's been disconnected." "I just checked the airline manifests out of LAX and Burbank." "he's not doing it under his own name." "Has he touched the $3 million?" "and I changed the passwords." "Will you check for me again?" "but he'd have to have hacked our entire system." "Or planted a keylogger." "♪♪" "I'm just saying he had plenty of access." "Where do you think he'll go?" "Depends on whether or not he takes the money." "If he doesn't take it..." "He did." "He took it." "When?" "Three minutes ago." "I just changed the passwords." "Then he did plant the keylogger." "Valerie:" "Maybe we can use it to track him." "What's the point?" "♪♪" "He lied to us." "He used us." "Allie." "Alice:" "What am I supposed to do?" "Continue to try to save him when he clearly doesn't want to be saved?" "What's my job here?" "♪♪" "I'll keep looking." "I'll go call his former employers." "You guys go check in with Margot." "I thought we weren't working for Margot anymore." "She says she has a new lead and another half million dollars for us." "I'll go." "I can go." "Valerie:" "You'll both go." "that's okay." "We can not do that." "Is there a problem?" "♪♪" "Then go." "Sophie:" "Are we not gonna talk about this?" "What's there to talk about?" "I warned you about Tommy." "I don't want to talk about Tommy." "I want to talk about you and me." "♪♪ my God." "children." "What is he doing here?" "I hired him." "You what?" "He's a paid assassin." "and now I pay him." "The question is what are you two doing here?" "♪♪" "We have an appointment." "I had an appointment with Alice Vaughan." "Alice has a family issue." "is that it? I've been doing this longer than Alice has." "B-team." "♪♪" "Val said you had a lead? and you will have his full cooperation." "You want us to work with the man who tried to kill us?" "No hard feelings." "It wasn't personal." "I thought you said you didn't know who hired you." "I don't. the two of you are good enough at your job that you can do something useful with that information." "Do you know anything about blockchain databases?" "The Ethereum Network?" "♪♪ but..." "It facilitates payments through computer-generated cryptocurrency." "The Hammer:" "Exactly." "So my ID and the client's stay private." "half upon proof of death." "And what constitutes proof of death?" "a finger." "a head." "I charge extra for the head." "plus shipping." "or should I call Alice and Val? but I might be able to trace the payment." "Someone just graduated to the A-team." "♪♪ eye candy." "♪♪" "Kenji's gone." "I know." "Before you get too mad..." "He's not in LA." "He's not in Osaka." "It's okay." "Kenji is not our guy." "but there's no proof." "thanks to you and your surveillance cameras." "I planted those cameras." "We have proof. we now have our big bad on film." "The thing is... she's not that big. heads out the back door to her car." "♪♪ no." "What is it?" "What's the matter?" "Justine:" "It's a diplomatic pouch." "isn't it... "pouch"?" "It's the "diplomatic" part that's ugly." "Our big bad is a diplomat." "which means you can't go after her." "Not without creating an international incident." "Ben:" "Our big bad really is a big bad." "But who is she?" "I'm almost afraid to run the plates and find out." "Alice:" "We're wasting our time." "Tommy could be anywhere." "We could get the police involved." "He does have an army of drug dealers after him." "Who would we call?" "Renée?" "I could call Nick." "He could put out a BOLO." "He's not gonna do me any favors." "He'd be doing it for me." "We don't need Nick." "I'll find Tommy." "Robin:" "Guys?" "We have a walk-in." "♪♪" "Mr...?" "Tasker." "I'm looking for someone." "A thief." "Someone who stole from me and my associates." "His name is Tommy Vaughan." "too." "♪♪" "So we can't help you." "Well..." "at least I know where I can find you... and your friends." "♪♪" "See you soon." "♪♪" "Danny:" "His name is Theo Tasker." "no convictions. he's a high-ranking lieutenant in the Southland Drug Cartel." "These are bad people who kill people." "People like the Kincaids." "if we don't give them Tommy." "We're not giving them Tommy." "into the cartel?" "We can't take on the cartel." "experience." "I know someone who does." "We're not calling Nick." "Allie." "I'm calling Nick." "Alice:" "Val." "Who's Nick?" "♪♪ the man many believe will be our next chief of police." "the number of shootings and killings is down in LA this year." "Why do you think that is?" "I'd say it's because relationship-based policing works." "We're getting cops out of cars and riot gear so they can be a part of the community." "It's about building trust." "♪♪ rebuilding trust." "Man:" "And we're out." "♪♪" "Val? I'm here to offer you something." "Southland Drug Cartel." "♪♪ that would almost guarantee your police chief appointment." "What have you got?" "Tommy?" "Alice Vaughan's brother's in with the cartel?" "Why am I not surprised?" "Alice Vaughan stole my partner." "She didn't have to steal me." "I left." "And we both know why." "and the cartel is after him." "And why is that?" "right?" "Mm-hmm." "Tommy was their dog walker." "how do we know he didn't kill them?" "Because it's Tommy Vaughan." "Exactly." "Do you want to work together on this or not?" "now we're working together?" "and I will get you the cartel." "♪♪" "It'll be just like old times." "I'll see what I can do." "You do that." "Chief." "♪♪" "♪♪" "delivery for an Alice Vaughan." "♪♪" "You're not supposed to be here." "I'm in disguise." "Delivery guy." "I like it." "We got to figure out how we're gonna spend time with each other. then we really do." "I don't have my roommate anymore." "You guys still haven't found him?" "Mnh-mnh." "What do you know about the Southland Cartel?" "What does the cartel want with Tommy?" "$3 million." "that's one way of looking at it." "And you don't know where he is." "Mnh-mnh." "So now's probably not the best time to be asking you for a favor." "I thought you just came here for sex." "I did." "I promise that's the only reason I'm here. could you run a diplomatic plate for me?" "Don't you work for the FBI?" "This seems like something that Agent Diaz should be able to handle." "but I like the way you do it." "♪♪" "What is this?" "I thought you said you weren't looking for Margot." "We are not looking for her because... because you're better off going after the Southland Cartel." "All they want is their money. he'll be fine." "they're beautiful." "It's just..." "I just don't know what they say." "What would you like them to say?" "Thank you." "I'm sorry." "Don't hate me." "hair clips?" "Sure." "Um.." "Okay." "Hello?" "Rhys:" "Is this Albert Ollerman?" "you have the wrong number." "you are Albert Ollerman." "Sorry about the name." "your paperwork is here." "Where are you?" "I am buying an apology gift." "I wouldn't. that kind of gift only works one out of every eight times." "Those are the hair clips." "You're not buying a hair clip." "It's just that earrings..." "They just seem a little..." "I don't know." "Is there a professional there with you?" "please." "He would like to talk to you." "Oh." "this is Vikki." "do me a favor." "Put the hair clips back where you found them and tell me about the earrings. 1 1/2 carats each in a white-gold setting." "How much?" "000 cash." "Go and talk to your manager will you?" "dear." "Thank you!" "Thank you." "Mm-hmm." "What just happened?" "if you insist on spending that money 000." "but I have to do something." "I wouldn't even have the money if it wasn't for her." "this was just delivered." "It's for Sophie." "Me?" "Sophie!" "Wow." "Open it." "Whoa." "♪♪" "Valerie:" "Whoa." "Wow!" "Who are those from?" "♪♪" "Are they from Tommy?" "♪♪" "We had dinner." "♪♪" "They're going back to the store." "He can't be spending that money." "Alice." "You don't have anything to be sorry for." "♪♪" "You just gave us our first lead." "Rhys:" "So our mysterious diamond smuggler..." "Do we know who she is yet?" "we know who she works for." "Kohana Takashi." "Japanese Consul General here to promote trade between Japan and the US." "And apparently to smuggle diamonds from Japan to the US." "Using her diplomatic status as cover." "Brains and beauty." "Is she single?" "A widow." "One son..." "Jesse." "So I swan into her life posing as a charming British single dad." "stutter she can help me overcome." "We meet cute." "We make love. she'll need a new front for her operation." "So I'm a sexy single restaurateur with a taste for cocaine and diamonds." "And the two of us convince the consul general to use our restaurant." "whatever." "Do we have a restaurant?" "We will." "And then when her next shipment of diamonds comes in..." "We hand her over to the FBI." "Except the FBI's not going anywhere near Kohana Takashi." "Justine:" "The boss said no." "The bureau can't get caught investigating a Japanese dignitary." "it's a good thing that Rhys and I aren't actually FBI agents." "What are you suggesting?" "We go into business with her." "And then we leak enough evidence to the press to force an arrest." "I told you so. and Kohana Takashi gets a swift extradition." "Everybody wins." "All you have to do is trust us." "you lost my only suspect." "you didn't trust us then." "I don't trust you now. going rogue without a safety net or any bureau oversight." "I absolutely can't allow this." "♪♪" "Which is why it just might work." "♪♪" "I'm sorry you didn't like them." "He had such a terrible time trying to decide." "He even had to call a friend." "A friend?" "Such a nice man." "He put me on the phone with him." "But I have always been a sucker for a man with a British accent." "His friend was British?" "Mm-hmm." "Do you need to take that?" "That is not a conversation I need to have right now..." "Not with my friend Albert Ollerman in the house." "Driver's license..." "Okay. and a first-class ticket to Slovenia." "The skiing in Kranjska Gora is supposed to be... not terrible." "♪♪ you know. but you don't have to go through with this." "I'm sure your sister could find at least a dozen ways to get you out of it." "I can't keep asking her to do that for me." "I have a sister like that myself." "Here you go." "Ah." "Thank you." "Bertie." "I'm sure Alice will forgive you eventually." "Maybe she already has." "I'm sure the earrings helped." "♪♪ those earrings weren't for Alice." "I wasn't aware that your date with Tommy was a secret." "I did not!" "In front of my bosses. let me tell you something. and she brought the B-team with her." "you two. and it was made in person at a bank downtown." "and does this bank have a handy little network of cameras we can hack into? so it's not accessible online." "So we'll need to break in there and access the footage ourselves. so it..." "So instead... it's fine." "before I have the Hammer kill you both." "We'll have better luck if we hack into the feed so we can watch it anywhere." "Watch what?" "The Hammer said his second payment is due when he submits proof of death." "So you're going to have him cut off my finger?" "It doesn't need to be your finger." "There's no shortage of fingers out there." "Most people have 10." "You can't just cut off the finger of an innocent woman." "Is anyone really innocent?" "He does have a point. it wouldn't match your fingerprint." "I haven't had fingerprints for years." "So we send off the finger." "Then the killer comes back to the bank to make the second payment." "we're watching." "It should only take a couple of days." "A couple of days?" "no." "I've been locked in this prison long enough." "Really?" "Prison?" "I'll get us tapped into that feed tomorrow." "You meet me there at 9:00 a.m." "No." "We're not gonna let you." "That's not..." "That's not..." "Sorry." "No." "Go ahead." "Someone's still trying to kill you. I need to worry about whatever is going on with the two of you." "What is going on with you two?" "Nothing." "Nothing. my friend Valerie has done very well for herself." "You think?" "Apart from that pesky FBI investigation." "Ah." "You know about that?" "I check up on you occasionally." "Then you also know that we've been cleared." "Hmm. can she?" "That was a long time ago." "She's one of the good guys now." "it's thanks to you." "♪♪" "What's this?" "It's where we are on the Southland Cartel." "but we'll find him." "♪♪ it's over. impossible to get to." "Justine:" "So the direct approach is out." "Rhys:" "Ah." "We're working." "there's one thing she cares about" "Jesse." "And there's only one thing Jesse cares about..." "Status." "Jesse's always first on the scene." "all the latest high-tech toys." "or exclusive." "So we'll bait him." "With a dinner party." "not just any dinner party." "The most exclusive dinner party in Los Angeles..." "One night only." "no." "We'll invite his friends instead. an underground dining experience and tastemakers. which should lead him right to us." "headed your way." "Copy that." "I've got it from here." "Wow." "That was fast." "Yes?" "Where the hell's my brother?" "Where's Tommy?" "This is not actually an ideal time." "Is he here?" "Tommy?" "!" "Tommy?" "!" "He's not here." "is that Alice?" "What is Alice doing there?" "I don't..." "The mark will be there any second." "You're either hiding him or helping him." "Which is it?" "I'm actually working right now." "Ben and I have a mark on approach. ask her to please not be there." "Ben would like you to leave." "not tell." "You tell Ben that I will leave when you tell me where my brother is!" "do you know where Tommy is?" "Kind of." "Then tell her." "All right." "But don't be upset." "Too late!" "Too late." "Fine." "He's traveling under the name of Albert Ollerman." "Now you really have to go." "just one moment." "pl... ♪♪" "Yes?" "What is it?" "is this the Dining Hall?" "Depends entirely upon who's asking." "The Consul General of Japan? foreign trade." "thank you very much." "then you know she's super well-connected." "She has total access." "She knows everyone." "apparently." "she's kind of my mom." "So... can we come? tell her dinner's at 8:00." "All right." "Cool." "Awesome." "Ben:" "You and Tommy." "Start talking." "♪♪" "B-team." "right?" "I will be disguised as Lydia Pemberton." "This whole surveillance setup..." "I did this." "I put this together." "And I'm in need of a safety deposit box in which to store my late husband's family heirlooms." "And you are...?" "Disguised as your bodyman. because The Hammer will be in here with Sophie." "So you will effectively be my bodyman in case somebody tries to kill me." "I can't think why anyone would want to do that. leaving you free... which I set up all by myself 'cause this is what I do for a living." "Is she like this with you?" "B-team!" "Great." "♪♪" "got this for you." "it's perfect. so I got in touch with a friend at the morgue." "But..." "I didn't get you anything." "That's okay." "Stand up straight." "Try not to look so much like you're waiting for Mommy to buy you an ice cream." "There's your game face." "Now just keep hating me while I go and find the manager." "♪♪" "♪♪" "♪♪ get on the ground!" "On the ground!" "Give me your hands!" "Put your hands behind your back!" "Don't move." "Get these people out of here." "What the hell was that?" "The Hammer:" "You should have seen your face." "he can." "You hacked the system." "I couldn't count on you to do it." "Those guards could have killed me." "The only reason they let me go is because..." "B-team." "Now all we have to do is have The Hammer send proof of death and wait for our mystery guest to appear on camera." "♪♪" "Where are you guys going?" "Lunch. since it is what you do for a living." "Anything happens to Tommy Vaughan..." "It won't." "You should be thanking me." "I saved his life." "How much you charging him?" "I..." "Friends-and-family rate." "look at you." "remember?" "I'm hosting this little dinner party." "that is quite an outfit you've got on there." "and quite a necklace." "You borrow that from the evidence locker?" "Why would you assume that?" "Because I know how much you make." "And I know how much that costs." "Maybe my husband gave it to me." "you have a husband?" "What?" "Does he know about us?" "♪♪" "Tommy used to be terrible at hide-and-seek." "That's not the only game he's playing." "no." "Nick's research on the cartel shows their main distribution centers and Studio City." "All of Tommy's former employers... and Studio City." "Tommy is working for the cartel." "Sophie:" "I found him." "Albert Ollerman is on a flight to Slovenia that leaves LAX in two hours." "Do you want me to come with you?" "Probably best if there's no witnesses when I find him." "♪♪" "♪♪ let me help you with that." "Theo!" "Ahh." "Thank God!" "I found out that the Kincaids were skimming money off the top." "And I managed to get the money back for you." "they're..." "they're both dead." "Tommy." "You know how I know?" "'Cause I was bringing the money back to you?" "right?" "Open it." "yeah." "Sure." "Yeah." "It's all here." "Promise." "Most of it." "I..." "A few expenses... ♪♪" "That I had." "♪♪" "I can explain." "Aah!" "Where's the money?" "Mr. Tasker." "On the ground." "♪♪" "Ms. Vaughan? and then I'll probably shoot you in the thigh when you try to run away." "And then I'll turn you over to the police." "Police can't keep you safe." "The people I work for..." "They'll just send other people like me 'til they've got their money." "then." "You know where it is?" "but I'll find it." "And it's in your best interest to let me Tommy's not gonna be the only one they want to kill." "♪♪" "You have 12 hours." "24." "I'll be in touch." "♪♪" "Thank you." "Where's the money?"
