Crisis (2013) s01e13 Episode Script

1 Previously on Crisis This is what happens when you say no Agent Finley.
Secret Service.
Have you found the kids? I was the star witness for the Gibson show.
He came out of there a hero who almost died saving the president's son.
And we don't have a single piece of hard evidence against him.
Alicia Dutton is thought to have taken the last remaining hostage, Beth Ann Gibson.
What does Francis Gibson do to get his daughter back? Maybe we could help each other.
What does Widener want with the kidnappers' money? To turn your men against you.
- Still won't talk about it? - Not a word of what went on in there.
Amber your Aunt Susie's here.
Beth Ann Gibson! Where is she? - Sold her.
- Who has her? - Is it Widener? - I don't know.
Screw it 1x13 - World's Best Dad She was here.
Before he died, Gibson's number one confirmed it.
- Beth Ann Gibson was here.
- Where is she now? Gone.
Whoever's gonna use Gibson has her now.
We're not gonna find Gibson's daughter in time.
He's at a vigil for Beth Ann at the Ballard School.
Go there now and take him into custody.
I do not want to see what Francis Gibson does - to get his daughter back.
- Into custody on what charge? Use the Patriot Act if you have to, just get him off the street - and into an interrogation room.
- Yes, sir.
You can take off the gag and blindfold now.
- POTUS is at Ballard.
- We need to get him out of there.
Why is he there with Gibson? I'm on the line with Secret Service now.
Yes, this is Agent Marcus Finley.
Please use my voice match for verification.
I need to alert POTUS Overwatch, status red.
Tomorrow, you'll do something that even you could not have imagined.
You will get the president and the first lady to Ballard School and then, in front of the world, you will confess to the kidnapping of the children.
You will bring proof of what you've done.
You used those parents as weapons.
Now it's your turn.
You will go to Ballard school on Sunday and you will self-destruct.
You will do this, or your daughter will die.
What did they say? What do they want you to do? Janice, do you want to get Beth Ann back? Of course.
You know that I do.
- Then trust me.
- Francis.
"Confess.
" To what? Or what? Nothing to confess.
I did what I had to do.
I'd do it again.
Self-destruct? Ladies and gentlemen, the President and the First Lady of the United States.
I called in a threat.
Why haven't you shut this down? You think I want our boss out there with Gibson? POTUS wants to stand next to him and there's not a damn thing any one of us can do about it.
- You put on extra agents? - Yes.
Swept the building three times.
I read the reports on Mr.
Gibson.
Nothing's happening in here we don't want happening in here.
No way he gets an explosive or a gun in here.
Not tonight.
But, Finley, this is happening right now.
- I know.
- Look, we just want to ask Mr.
and Mrs.
Gibson a few questions.
Okay? We'll get them back out there by the end of the song.
Secret Service goes.
FBI, you stay here.
He'll bring 'em back to you.
We found the people who took your daughter.
- They're both dead.
- Oh, my God.
- Beth Ann? - Still missing.
Whoever took her paid for her.
- Somebody bought my daughter? - I'm sorry.
- Why are you looking at him? - He's my husband.
Have you received any calls? - No.
- Did your husband receive a phone call? - No.
- You husband knows who has Beth Ann, doesn't he, Mrs.
Gibson? - No, how could he? - Do you trust your husband? - They're dead.
- You need to be more specific.
The people who used to work for you.
Someone shot Dutton, then we shot the redhead.
We are gathered here tonight to unite in spirit.
- You didn't find my daughter? - My guess: Widener has her.
And he's gonna use you like you used those parents.
Use you against the man who denied his pardon.
My wife and I stand with the man who gave us our child back.
I'm sure ex-Director Widener is not happy about a long prison term.
And he might have my daughter.
But I'm surrounded by Secret Service agents.
What could I possibly do? You look at the president the wrong way, I will end you.
Mr.
and Mrs.
Gibson, please stand with us.
- Side by side - I need to go now.
to show those who would do us harm that we are united.
Thank you, Mr.
President.
I believe Beth Ann can feel our thoughts and prayers.
I want to say just one thing to the people who have our daughter: I love Beth Ann, even more so after what we went through.
But like our president, if you call me, if you ask me to do anything I will say "no.
" I love my daughter, but I will say "no.
" Now we light these candles - Finley - Yeah, I know.
- You checked out those candles? - Those candles were brought in by us.
for the one we hope to see again.
Finley.
You need to shut this down right now.
You'll do it or I will.
Soft exfil go.
Soft exfil go.
Mr.
President, step away.
They left in a hurry.
That's too bad.
They didn't have a chance to light a candle for Beth Ann.
I wonder if you would.
It would mean the world to me.
- Bill - Hm.
- who has their daughter? - I don't know.
Widener? He's fishing in Montana, surrounded by lawyers, waiting for his trial.
- He's still dangerous, isn't he? - Yeah.
Oh, my God, that poor woman Mrs.
Gibson her daughter's still out there, after all of this and her husband, he Honey, you all right? - Bill? Is that my blood? - Julia? Julia! The first lady was just rushed to Bethesda Naval Hospital with what appears to be a stroke.
She's in critical condition.
And the President? Kyle? They're with her.
They've both been checked out; neither appears to be ill.
What happened at that school? - How'd you do it? - Do what, Agent Dunn? The first lady is in a hospital bed.
How did you put her there? - What do the doctors say? - A stroke.
Makes sense.
The pressure she's been under her son was taken all that time, then to see him nearly executed the strain on that poor woman's system I can understand.
You're enjoying this, aren't you? Why would you say that? My daughter is missing.
I sit day and night, waiting for that terrible call.
A parent has been stricken ill.
Why would I enjoy that? You enjoy the attention.
Being in the center of it all, the control it gives you.
You don't want to be the bug anymore, do you, Mr.
Gibson? See that, Mr.
Gibson? She's FBI.
She's been trained to get in your head to see what's in there.
I'm Secret Service.
I had a different kind of training.
- Finley! - What did you do to the first lady? I'll forgive this because you saved my life in that fire.
But don't ever touch me again.
- What the hell was that? - I asked him to do it.
You asked him to do it? To push him hard.
I had to see.
In that fire when Gibson asked for my help, he'd lost control.
- Now he has it back.
- Whatever is happening now, Francis Gibson wants it to happen.
- Mrs.
Devore.
- Gibson.
Thank you, ma'am.
Let's say that that man in there put the first lady in the hospital.
Why make FLOTUS the target? Who benefits from her death? That's not the question that we should be asking.
- What is? - How does targeting the first lady help Gibson get his daughter back? POTUS and Kyle, - they are still at the hospital? - Yes.
You want to question the president? No.
He wants to question his son.
- How's your mother doing? - In surgery.
There's bleeding in her brain.
They're trying to get it to stop.
- Why are you two here? - Kyle, there's a possibility that what's happening to your mother had an outside factor.
The TV interview you did with Mr.
Gibson, he whispered something in your ear.
What did he say? I told the other agents that right after.
He said we had to be strong for Beth Ann.
But he asked you to do something, didn't he? - Yes.
- And you did it because he saved you, because he's Beth Ann's dad.
- It was nothing, really.
So I - What did you do, Kyle? I made my parents come to the school tonight.
And you told them it was your idea? - Yes.
- But it wasn't, was it? He asked me to get my parents to the vigil.
To show support for Beth Ann.
Did I do something wrong? My mother taught me to sing "Happy Birthday" twice in my head while I'm washing my hands.
To do it long enough.
I taught my daughter that.
He made me get my mother there.
Is he the reason she's sick? Did I help him hurt my mother? Thank you.
I feel refreshed now.
After all, it's been a long night.
If Gibson is bad what about Hurst? Hurst was pointing a gun at Gibson.
Was it to protect me? Was Hurst trying to protect me when I shot him? - Did I murder Hurst? - No.
Gibson did that.
Kyle, look at me.
Gibson made that happen, not you.
There.
Freeze it there and enhance.
Your hands, Mr.
Gibson, you don't mind if we swab them, do you? - I can get a warrant if I have to.
- I have nothing to hide.
Dad? She She loved you very much.
- No.
- Yes.
- No.
- I'm sorry.
FLOTUS has passed.
I repeat: FLOTUS has passed.
I'll tell Olsen.
I-I guess he already knows.
It's Finley.
I understand.
We're coming in now.
Finley what? What is it? It's Amber she's missing.
The monitoring equipment and alarms at Meg's house were disabled from the inside.
Someone who knew the codes turned them all off.
Your sister's security staff? They've all been brought in for questioning.
Meg I was on my way to see Julia, and before I even got to the hospital, my best friend was dead and Amber was gone.
It's happening again, isn't it? I don't think it ever ended, Ms.
Fitch.
I'm sorry, but I have to ask you, with your daughter gone, have you received a call? Have they asked you to do anything? No.
But I'm not the only Ballard mother in this room.
If the kidnappers knew that, they would have - used it already.
- The kidnappers? We know who this is.
Where is Gibson, Susie? Are you watching him? Would it be possible to get something to eat? I've been here a while.
And maybe a paper to read to pass the time? It's possible they could be lured away.
You need to keep her close.
I understand you believe your son is in his room asleep, but I need you to go in there, turn on the light and confirm that.
- I'll hold while you go do it.
- As a precaution, we're asking that you don't let her out of the house for now.
No Ballard kids other than Amber have been reported missing? We're still locating them all.
A lot of the parents took their kids away after they were released.
- How many still unaccounted for? - 18 of the original kidnapped.
We've just begun to check the school at large.
- Over 300 students at that high school.
- Amber Fitch swiped her ATM card at a downtown location 20 minutes ago.
She took out $500.
You don't take Amber Fitch for $500.
Pull the bank's surveillance tape.
Dunn your sister in there, is she lying about not getting a call from the kidnapper? No.
I don't think so.
- But? - But Meg's been traumatized by this, too.
Her daughter was taken.
Meg herself was severely beaten.
Sir, we weren't close before this.
I honestly have no idea what this has done to her.
I have the ATM image.
That's Amber.
But if she's being forced to take out money, why is she alone? She isn't.
See that shadow? Stop.
Who is she with? No way to see his face.
Let it play.
Let's see what happens next.
This isn't a kidnapping.
See the way he's touching her right there? I do.
Not forced.
They know each other.
- Another Ballard student? - I don't know.
Check the Facebook pages of the Ballard students.
They're gonna post that they're on the run? No, I think one of their classmates' mother just died.
They'll all post condolences.
Unless they're busy doing something else.
I'll start with Kyle's page.
- The only two who didn't post are - Amber Fitch and Ian Martinez.
What if they weren't taken? What if they got a call? What if it's the kids being used this time instead of the parents? Put a BOLO out on Ian Martinez.
- Nothing yet? - No.
- You texted you got the cash, right? - Yes.
Amber, Beth Ann's my best friend.
It was easy for me to say "yes" to that text.
- Why did you? - Because she's still out there, so it's still happening.
Let me see your phone.
Yeah, same text.
Why would they want us to go there? I have a bad tooth, so I'm gonna stick to soft foods for a while.
I don't know Ian Martinez, and I don't know why Amber would be with him.
- Where is Gibson? - I told you, Meg, we have him here in FBI; he's not going anywhere.
Maybe Amber ran away.
We used to do it, too, when it got bad at home.
Things have been bad, Susie.
What you need? An eighth of the MK.
MK? You sure you can handle that? Yeah, I can handle it.
Where'd he go? - Do you see him? - No.
I'm scared.
Yeah, me, too.
- Maybe I should get out, go and see.
- No.
No.
Maybe, maybe we're not going to save Beth Ann.
Maybe they brought us here for something else.
What should we do? Are we supposed to look inside? - It didn't say.
- Do it, open it.
Go on.
Are these to ransom Beth Ann? Text them and see where we should take them.
We just got a hit on Ian Martinez's car.
- Is Amber still with him? - No eyes on the kids yet, but the car is parked on L Street Southeast.
Something's happened.
Is it Amber? Just go home and sit tight.
I'll call you as soon as I know something.
Susie, whatever she's being made to do, you have to save her from it.
The third dressing room, that's what it said? - Yes, why? - There's only two.
You guys are open late? We never close.
I need the third dressing room.
Well, that's gonna cost you.
I'm supposed to give this to you, too.
Text that I gave you the box.
Ian.
Though the White House cited natural causes for the death of First Lady Julia Devore, we now have unconfirmed reports the FBI has taken Francis Gibson into custody.
- What if we have to stop her? - Don't go there.
We have aimed our guns at a lot of parents, Finley.
What if they're making Amber do something, and we have to stop her? I don't know no Beth Ann! Mace him again.
Mace him again, Ian! Where is she? Federal agents! Put the gun down! It's Amber.
Don't shoot.
You seeing this? Good news, Mr.
Gibson.
You're getting out of this room.
- Where am I going? - We're taking you somewhere to ask you some questions in a way that we can't ask you here.
- Enhanced interrogation.
- Bingo.
Turns out, we don't like people killing the first lady.
I understand.
I'm ready to go.
- What is going on here? - He maced me, and she took my gun! Why did you do that, Amber? Can you take the mask off? No, you put these on when you need to hurt people.
- What's going on in here, Ian? - He knows where Beth Ann is.
We both got a text that told us to come here, and we saw those masks, and we're not getting taken again.
- We're gonna get Beth Ann back.
- I don't know no Beth Ann! - I told him! - You need the mask, Amber, so you can do what you have to do to get Beth Ann back? Yes.
Well, that's our job.
So why don't you give me the gun? Get down! - What took you so long?! - I got him.
- Bad tooth, it's killing me.
- Least of your worries.
That's true.
It is.
Someone has my daughter.
You know we're federal agents.
The best thing for you to do is just go ahead and put that gun down.
Don't think I can do that now, this being a third strike state.
Amber, there's gonna be some shooting now.
If you don't want that gun in your hand to go off, I suggest you take your finger off the trigger.
It's okay.
Amber? - I'm gonna take this now, okay? - Okay.
- Aunt Susie, I am so sorry.
- It's okay, it's all right.
You're all right.
It's all right, you're okay.
Amber, can you tell me why you're here? - We came to help Beth Ann.
- Help her how? We both got texts.
Told us to get a box.
It was filled with diamonds.
Bring it here.
- We thought if we did that, then - You'd help get Beth Ann back.
Did we fail? Is she gonna die? - Meg's not answering.
- Dunn, you need to see this.
It's Amber's phone.
There's a text on it meant for that guy on the floor.
"The diamonds pay to kill the boy and hold the girl.
" The diamonds weren't ransom.
Those masks are here because this store supplied Gibson.
He wanted Amber alive to use.
- Puts pressure on her mother.
- Yeah, it does.
So does killing Julia Devore, Meg's best friend.
That puts pressure on her, too.
Gibson wants something from your sister.
No.
He wants someone.
Finley, Meg has Beth Ann.
What happened to your friend, the first lady, was on you.
You made that happen, not me.
Why would you have wanted that to happen? When I saw you take that bullet for Kyle, I knew who you were, what you were capable of.
I knew in that moment that the FBI would never get you.
So you took my daughter, and this is what happens.
You did this.
You made this happen.
Where did you send Amber? No.
Tell me that you killed your best friend.
Say it, bitch.
I killed my best friend.
Now you get my daughter, bring her to me.
Do it yourself.
I'll call in an hour and tell you where.
Pull over.
You and Finley killed those men, Aunt Susie.
I killed a man, too.
In that place.
- I didn't know.
- I didn't tell my mom.
I couldn't.
I was hoping maybe you could tell her for me.
Sure.
Yeah, sure, I-I'll tell your mother.
- Dunn.
- Just give me one minute, okay? Sure.
- Did they find Meg? - No.
Gibson slipped his escort.
We lost him.
What did Meg say before? "We used to do it, too.
- When it got real bad at home.
" - Dunn Dunn! Where are you going? - I can't tell you.
- You can't tell me? - Let go of me.
- What are you doing?! I know where she is.
I know where Meg would have put Beth Ann.
- You can call it in.
- No.
She's doing this to get back at Gibson because of what he did to Amber.
Because of what he did to all of us.
Maybe that's why she did it, but we are the law, Dunn, you know that.
I know we're the law, but she's my sister and she needs me, and I need you to turn your back and let me go.
Okay, Finley? Can you do that? You know I can't.
- Because you're the law? - No.
Because I'm your partner.
- You're gonna come with me? - As far as you need.
It's where we hid as kids.
.
as little girls.
When our parents' screaming got too loud.
It's where we'd go and pretend everything was gonna be all right.
I've got her! She's here! - I'm going in to get her right now.
- Ms.
Fitch - When did you know it was me? - When I stood across from you.
I didn't come to your house to find out about Widener.
I came to find out about you.
- Is she in there? - Yes.
But I wouldn't go in there if I were you.
- Why not? - I don't think you'll like what I've done to your daughter.
Bet that hurt.
Now I'm gonna go in there, and if something happened to my daughter, I'm gonna come out here and I'm gonna run you over with your fancy car.
"Page 96.
"When the president says no to the demand, bring Kyle into the kitchen.
After I'm shot, free Tory Hurst.
Set the mansion on fire.
Go through the tunnels.
Disable the mines" This is your handwriting.
I know it.
16 years of birthday cards, I know it.
Beth Ann, they made me write those things.
They forced me.
I must be such a disappointment to you as a daughter.
- Why would you say that? - Because I'm so stupid to not have seen you for what you are.
They made me do those things.
To protect you.
No.
It was you.
You took us.
You killed Jin Liao.
No one made you! - No.
- You made all those parents do those horrible things.
What did you make Mom do? - This page doesn't prove anything.
- No, it doesn't, but the gun you're pointing at me does, Daddy.
- Amber - We have her.
Where's Gibson? Inside.
He's with his daughter.
For you.
I-I took all those kids for you.
I killed that boy for you, because I love you, because I needed to protect you.
That's what fathers do.
- You love me? - Come on now, it's time to go.
- We need to go.
- No.
Everything I hate about myself is you! I can't have this.
I am not going anywhere with you, - you freak.
- I can't have this! Just do it.
Just do it.
Mr.
Gibson, that's your daughter there.
So why don't you let her come over here, away from that gun? - Beth Ann and I have to go.
- Put down the gun and we'll all go.
She and I we can't be here.
I have a plan.
It won't hurt, I promise.
And then it'll be over.
Beth Ann look at him.
He shot that boy in the back.
He couldn't look him in the eyes.
Look at your father, Beth Ann.
Do it now.
Good-bye.
Beth Ann, it's all right.
Francis Gibson, you're under arrest.
- What for? - For the murder of the man you killed earlier, for the shooting of my sister and the attempted murder of your own daughter.
But you're a parent.
You understand why I did what I did.
- FBI! - FBI! In here! I feel your knife As it goes right in Cut to my core But I'm not bleeding All that you say trying to make me small Well, the bigger you get The harder you fall You use your words as a weapon, dear But your blades Don't hurt when you have no fear You think that you're deep Under my skin You're trying to keep me suffering You wanted me to find you.
You use your words as a weapon In case it went bad.
I knew you'd come looking.
It's kidnapping, Meg.
What you did.
But you got him, Susie.
You got Gibson.
You use your words as a weapon, dear Last item on Gibson's list.
"My family reunites and I go home.
" You think that you're deep Under my skin You're trying to keep me suffering I took all those kids for you.
I killed that boy for you, because I love you, because I needed to protect you.
It's what fathers do.
I'll shed no tears.
