"I live next door to Bobby and Nadia." "This is brother Ziad." "He's our accountant down here." "Farik's had us customizing a truck... make it look like an L.A.F.D. Emergency command vehicle."

"They want me to teach counter terrorism." "Cover techniques, relate my personal experience," "that sort of thing." "Hey Marcus, don't go up to far." "Well, that's great." "I mean, that's-- like a normal job." "Regular hours, boring," "safe" "What did you tell 'em?" "I didn't." "Not, not yet." "I just said I" "I'd think about it." "You want to know what I think?"

" No, I'm good." "I'm good, thank you." "How is decompression treating you?" "It's good, it's good." "Any news on my buddy Farick?" "They break him yet?" "That information is compartmentalized." "I haven't been written on the program." "But the answers are." "Let's say I'm surprised." "So..." "What are you doing in San Diego?" "You remember Benito Velasquez?" "From Lompoc?" "Benny?" "Maravilla?" "Ok, I remember." "Converted in prison, studies with the librarian." "Right after your release, he stepped up to the play." "Filled your shoes as the librarian's right hand man." "What does that have to do with me?" "Velazquez was released a few months ago." "Move in at his parents in Boyle Heights." "And he seems to have been staying out of trouble, keeping his nose clean." " But?" " But." "Yeah, but... he was recently spotted at the Islamic center here in San Diego." "Attending a mosque." "So we put a tail on him." "Turns out he's been driving down here for services every week-end." "So why does he need to attend a mosque in L.A. unless he's been... ordered to stay away from local Islamic community." "It's just the first operational rule of an Islamic extremist sleeper cell." "No public displays of faith so he's not to draw the attention..." "Attention of law enforcement." "So you want me... to check him out?" "Patricia, what you should do?" "Bring in a new U.C, start from scratch." "Have him buddy up to Benito." "Make friends, go from there." "Yeah..."

"You already had to save the city of Los Angeles, Darwin, you don't have to save Gayle Bishop." "That is none of your business." "And I'm not trying to save her, I'm trying to get my life back together." "You know, and truthfully, I..." "I really don't need you or anybody from the bureau trying to tell me how to do that." " You understand?" " Yeah." "Yeah, I do." "That is your business." "But Benito Velazquez is FBI business." "He was in prison with you, so you're legit in his book." "He's in San Diego." "You're in San Diego..." "I don't know." "Allah works in mysterious ways." "Okay." "Okay." "One condition." "Gayle's sister and her family are in town."

"Good to see you remember me, Danny." "Paradise is in the shadow of the fucking soldiers, man." "How did you find me?" "I saw you praying at the mosque." "But I didn't want to talk you there in case the cops and the feds were watching." "So I followed you." "Means I should be a little more careful." "Look, Benny," "The shipping I was doing in L.A." "a while back, it was..." "It was big," "You might have read about it, seen something on the news?" "Yeah, I know." "That thing in L.A." "Done with your heart, but I don't think we should be ?" "Just listen to me." "I got a plan and I need your help." "I got an on on the FBI bitch that fucked up that thing in L.A." "Now I can get to her." "Make her an example." "Payback." "But I can't do it alone." "Sorry about it, bro'." "You got me all wrong, man." "All that radical hate the librarian was preaching back in Lompoc?" "I bought into that shit to survive prison." "I ran with the brother to keep my ass safe, alright man?" "Now that I'm out, I mean, I turned the page." "I'm a peaceful brother." "We can strike a blow for the cause." "Sorry Darwin, you got the wrong guy." "Don't come see me again, bro'." "I'd have to call the cops." "The week-end of September 24, 2005, you met with two men in Las Vegas."

"The leader of the Washington D.C. cell operated under the name of Julio Torrez." "What's his real name?" "Is he known by any other aliases?" "What's his country of origin?" "Did he do Jihad with you in Afghanistan?" "You wanna go back to the water room, son?" "You almost drown the last time." "Come on, man, we've been going over the same shit for months." "Give me an answer." "Emilio Torrez got away, huh?" "You gotta hand it to those Hispanics," "But you know, we..." "We conquered Spain, and made it an integral part of the Muslin world." "Well, close to eight hundred years, so." "I'm not surprised Emilio Torrez outsmarted you." "Let's change of subject." "Who is the African-American member of your cell?" "His name was..." "His name was Martin..." "Martin Luther King." "Come on, son!" "Oh, excuse me." "Faris El Farik." "I'd like a fucking jihad *" "Now, do me a favor, Bob."

"I know this is being recorded." "Audio, video." "What's the point?" "It's my process." "Sure you had a process." "Maybe you still do." "Even now." "I know, I would." "So, no bites from Velazquez?" "No, I think he's clean." "Best leave him in peace." "Keep an eye on him just in case." "Sounds like a plan." "I thought you'd be at SeaWorld." "Pleased on these platinum passports with Gayle and the kids." "Yeah..." "You see, Gayle sister has this husband." "He and I don't really get along." "It might be awkward." "Thought it'd be better to hang behind." "That's very diplomatic of you." "So?" " That's it?" " That's it, you're off the clock." "I'm going overseas for a few weeks, maybe T.D.Y. with the joint terrorism taskforce in the Sudan." "They've got uncovered a recently dismantled Al-Qaida training-camp just outside Khartoum." "So I'm gonna go with the evidence collection-team check out." "Listen, I'm taking..." "Gayle and Marcus at dinner a little bit later, you want tie along?" "I have a plane to catch." "I think it might be awkward." "Probably best I hang back." "That's very diplomatic of you." "Perfect timing." "Dinner is served." "What are you listening to?" "Now, we are plugged into each other." "Cool man." "But this isn't really plug-in." "This is plug-in." "You always drink tea here." "Americans, they never drink tea." "I started drinking tea in the mountains of a town called" "Ruransha * in the coast province of Afghanistan, with my Mujahidin brothers." "I gave them stingers, they gave me tea." "I've been wondering, but I'm not sure who got the better deal." "I would very much like a cup of tea." "Alright." "Time to pick up where we left off." "Who is the African-American member of your cell?" "And I swear to Allah, if you say Malcolm X, I'm gonna kick your balls up into your throat and hold them until you choke on 'em."

"You know, that's where they broadcast the homing signal from, to make sure the planes will hit the towers." "I know." "And the Pentagon was actually hit by a CIA group of hawk drones so the administration could start an endless war and turn America into a police state." "And what idiot could believe that Osama Ben Laden, and his cave dwelling Muslim militia manage to outsmart the C.I.A." "the N.S.A. and the Pentagon." "Unless, uncle Sam was behind the whole thing."

"I'm on vacation, I'm hanging out." "Don't fucking bullshit me." "Are you the fifth jahid?" "I don't know what you're talking about!" "The one who was never identified, that was you, wasn't it?" " Fuck you!" " Wasn't it?" "You don't talk to me motherfucker, you are a dead man." "Are you the fifth jahid?" "Yeah." " That was me." " No one's following you." "No one's looking for you, why?" " Why?" " I'm a ranger." "3rd battalion, 75th regiment." "Survival, invasion, resist until escape, I was fucking trained to do this shit." "I find it difficult to believe you're that good."

"Tell me something I don't know so we both could get some sleep." "I would like... a cup of tea, please." "You got to give before you get." "In that case, give..." "Agent Sursnow my regards." "Isn't that the name of your lead agent in the L.A. operation?" "Yeah, *" "Jesus Christ!" "Are you bureau people from here leaving the most basic trade craft?" "Ever heard of using a pseudo name?" "Or information discipline?" "You're jumping to conclusions." "Because he knows her name doesn't mean it came from us." "Besides, where's that info going anyway?" "Yo, Darwin!" "Mother fucker!" "Don't you think I recognize your torn away ass underneath that mask?" "I was the fucking driver, man." "I never laid a fucking hand on you, man." "I'm sorry about that shit, alright?" "We had to fuckin' test you, man." "We had to check you out." "Look, man, come to this address back in L.A. tonight, ten o'clock." "If not, don't come see me again." "What's all this?"

"You know I was a part of a team that failed?" "Sometimes, failure is a great motivator." "Offering you a comeback." "One condition:" "Operation has been forced to move very, very slowly, due to a... scarcity of liquid funds." "And you are one of brother Farik most trusted men." "And I must believe, privee to his personal funding connections." "So your Jihad is cash poor, you need me to hook you up." "Our accountant disappeared after the failed L.A. attacks." "Just fell of the grid." "Perhaps you can find him." "I'll be in touch, brother Darwin." "Good luck." "Inch' Allah, we will speak again." "Oh God." "Darwin." "Have been worried sick about you." "Where the hell have you been?" "Oh my God, what happened to your face?" " Are you okay?" " I'm fine." " I'm fine." " You want..." "I just wanted to make sure you and Marcus got back in San Diego okay." "Yeah." "I'm here, I'm fine." "Let me..." "Marcus missed you, I missed you."
