FlashForward s01e16 Episode Script
Let No Man Put Asunder
It would seem our fates are on a collision course.
Find Dyson Frost yesterday.
The next move is Mark Benford's.
Dyson Frost? It's your move.
I took this picture.
She saw something she shouldn't have And got in trouble with Jericho.
The second that Jericho knows that I'm still alive - They'll find me, and they'll kill me.
- Tracy Stark I know you took her.
Now you're gonna give her back.
- I can't give you your daughter back.
- Then we go to war.
You will be shot 3 times on March 15th.
- It will be your gun, Agent Benford.
- Demetri? - Yeah? - The box is here, but the gun is gone.
My first term was a bitch.
I could have used you, Stan.
I'm sorry I couldn't bring you in.
I don't want you to think I-I'm harassing you.
I know.
You're just trying to save the world.
Good-bye.
She was signaling her handlers.
I should have known two moles, In case one is caught and not one person in the office Would suspect it's you.
Today is more than just the beginning of your career.
Today, along with a badge and a gun, You're gonna get a story about your first day on the job.
Every special Agent has one.
Some are funny.
Some are tragic.
Some are boring.
But today won't be the most important day In your career as an FBI Agent.
That day is somewhere down the line.
You won't see it coming.
It sneaks up on you.
It'll most likely be an anonymous moment A crossroads where you're asked to do something, Make some kind of personal sacrifice For the good of someone else, and that person may never know Your name or see your face or even understand what you did.
But you'll know.
And isn't that why you're here, after all? Because you can be counted on to do the right thing At the right time, every time.
Welcome to the FBI.
Well done.
Nicely done.
All right, ladies and gentlemen.
See me for your partner assignments.
Congratulations.
- Nicely done.
- Special Agent Vreede Is it "Vreed-y" or "Vreede" as in "freed"? Oh, I don't know.
I got Benford.
No.
Switch with me.
- Why? - He's a legend.
He's done it all Surveillance, counterterrorism, trafficking.
Come on.
- Do it.
- Whatever, but you gotta take it up with Wedeck and get it approved.
Done.
Thank you.
- Of course.
- Yes! - Janis, who'd you get? - No partner.
Headed to analysis.
Boring.
You know, I got it worse.
I report to you.
I mean, how could that be? I scored higher.
Yeah, in, like, one category.
- Come on, Marcie.
We'll have fun.
- Yeah, we've been a team since Quantico - Booze and bullets.
- Yeah, well, what am I, the mascot? No, you're like our Captain.
Yeah, you'll probably outpace all of us.
I'm sure of it.
Yeah, we're we're sure.
Interview of Marcie Turoff, Agents Benford and Noh questioning.
March 12, 2010.
First thing we'd like to know is Who came after us in that parking garage in D.
C.
? I don't know.
Who came after us in the parking garage in D.
C.
? I don't know.
On to the next.
Are they still after us? - I don't know.
- Demetri.
- Who killed Ian McKinnon? - Come on.
Let's go.
- Is that who's coming after me? - Let's go.
We need those answers.
Yeah, but there are a whole lot of other ones we need to get to first.
Listen, Dem.
You think I don't have March 15th circled in my calendar, too? We both know there's a chance you'll die in three days.
Look, you keep chasing down leads.
I'll let you know when we're ready for your questions, alright? Hey, Janis, I need your help in here with Marcie.
Me? What, you got something more important than grilling our mole? No.
Of course not.
What were your duties? Every week, I'd take whatever information there was In the mosaic investigation and leave it at a dead drop.
Who recruited you? I was approached by a man three months before the blackout hit.
What was his name? All in due time.
He asked if I wanted to be a part of something big.
And you said yes.
You think I sold out my friends and my country, but You don't know me.
Why don't you enlighten us? Come on.
Don't you remember my flash-forward? No, you don't, 'cause neither of you ever bothered to ask me what I saw.
I was incarcerated.
That didn't cross your mind When you shot six of your fellow agents? It did.
But even though I was in jail, I was happier than I've been in years.
I thought we'd have to beg for life without parole.
I told you they'd come around.
Until I tell them who recruited me, I'm indispensable.
For the first time since I got here, I actually felt like I was important.
I need you, Mark.
These are our guests from Washington.
And while they're grateful for all our efforts - In apprehending Agent Turoff - Oh, no.
You gotta be kidding.
Director Middleton feels more comfortable Having such a highly valued target where he can keep an eye on her.
And where he can give the press conferences himself.
Hear me out.
We know her.
We can read her.
Just give us one more day.
I know it's frustrating, But let's try to get something positive done today Like maybe get back to what caused the blackout.
Now I'll be out of the office for a couple of hours, So give me an update.
Dyson Frost He's our best lead so far.
Where are we? I've left four messages.
Haven't heard back.
I'm afraid he's just toying with us.
The guy's been wanting to talk to you for 19 years, And now he's playing hard to get? Shel, see what you can get by tracing Frost's phone.
Yes, sir.
Hey, I just got a call from l.
A.
P.
D.
They've got a ballistics report saying that Mark's gun, The one that's supposed to kill me in three days, Was used in a murder last night.
So what do we know from the eyewitness reports? 55-year-old, in his cot, Presumably asleep.
At 3:33 a.
m.
, the shooter walked up to him, And a couple of insomniacs heard the victim say I knew it would be you.
I just didn't want to believe.
The shooter must have had a silencer on your gun.
He plugged him three times in the chest at close range.
Uh, do you want to put that thing away? - Sorry.
- Thanks.
Physical description ranging from 5'5" white guy to a 6' Indian.
Another dead end.
Wasn't there something about a car? Uh Somebody said they saw a 1970s blue sedan drive away Foreign make.
That's a start.
LAPD's gonna forward the victim's effects to us.
Can't wait to sift through that.
Forget about the shooter.
Who's the one other person we know who handled that gun? There were 40 agents in that evidence room.
They were all cleared months ago.
One of those agents Marcie? Marcie! - Stop! Stop! - You guys never give up.
- I need to talk to her.
- She's in our custody now.
You can't take her.
She's part of our investigation.
I'm just doing my job, same as you doing yours.
- Who'd you give my gun to, Marcie? - I don't know.
- Come on.
Who has it? - I don't know.
Come on.
Don't do this.
We were friends.
Look, I'm sorry.
Really, I am.
All I heard is that you're supposed to die in L.
A.
What? Give me more specifics.
- Who does it? When? - It was a voice on the phone When I called to report the gun in lockup.
Who'd you call? A number.
It was different every time.
Look, that's all I know.
There isn't any more.
Look, you're gonna die in three days, And there's nothing you can do to stop it.
I'm sorry.
- Come on.
- Marcie, come on.
Marcie! Marcie! Marcie! Come on, come on! Sweetie, what is the hurry? We're here.
I told him we'd be here by 2:00.
We're late.
- Who? - Dylan! Hey, Dylan.
Nuts to you, Squirrlio! Toot! Toot! - Come on, Dylan! - Okay, I'm coming.
Did you know about this? Absolutely not.
Charlie, who arranged this? I did! I got Dylan's phone number from him When he was in the hospital.
He was very insistent about this specific park, And now I know why.
Do you normally come here? Well, the house is just around the corner.
Right.
- This is fun.
- Come on.
You go first.
- Look, I can sit on a bench or something.
- It's fine.
Doesn't have to be that way.
Charlie? - Dylan, what happened? - Let me see, sweetie.
- We bonked heads.
- Did he hit your teeth? Let me see, baby.
Okay, Charlie, let's see.
Open up.
- I'm bleeding.
- Okay.
Let me see.
- She okay? - Open your mouth.
Here we go, Charlie.
I want you to do something now.
Just grab my hand, and when it hurts, I want you to squeeze as hard as possible, okay? Is that all you got? Come on.
You try a little bit harder than that.
That's good.
Does this mean I can't go to the carnival, mommy? No, I think you're gonna be just fine for the carnival.
I think you're gonna be okay.
Yeah, that's good.
I'm starting to feel that a bit now.
Listen, I'm just gonna go back to the car and get a bottle of water and a towel.
- You'll be okay.
- Okay.
Yeah.
I see carnivals in your future.
Come here.
I wanna go.
I know.
Come here.
It's okay, sweetie.
Assistant director Wedeck? That's me.
Come this way.
- She's ready for you.
- Thank you.
Madame vice president.
Good to see you, Stan.
It's been quite a while.
- Please sit.
- Thank you.
Thanks for coming on such short notice, Stan.
How is everything? You want to tell me why the hell you dragged me out here? It's nice to know my new position Hasn't changed your attitude towards me.
Does the name Jericho ring a bell? They're a private contractor operating over in Afghanistan.
I've heard of them.
Agent Benford look into them a while back.
Yes? Well, in my security briefing this morning, I learned that Jericho's C.
E.
O.
just tripled the security Around his Malibu compound.
I think you should take a look.
Wrong department.
NSA is who you want to call.
I don't want them to know.
I need this done off the books.
The vice president doesn't fly across the country 'cause some guy hired an extra night watchman.
In my vision, it was clear that Jericho had done some things That threatened our national security.
The same vision where you saw yourself as president? As a matter of fact, yes.
And I was there because Jericho Did something that triggered a political crisis.
I can't find out anything about what they're doing.
But if it's bad enough to bring down president Segovia, It must be significant.
I've been keeping a close eye on every move they make, And something is happening right now.
Are you sure you don't know what it is? And even if I did, Dave and I go back 25 years.
Listen, these flash-forwards are coming true.
Segovia is going down.
Do you want to be out with the old or in with the new? Well now we know your gun's here in L.
A.
Yeah, too bad Marcie couldn't tell us who's using it.
So I'll run this car info, See if anything pings on a 1970s blue sedan.
- We're gonna get this guy.
- Yeah.
Got a sec, Mark? Jericho You used our database to look into them a few months ago.
Is that a problem? No, no.
Just curious why you did.
It was a favor for a friend Wanted as much information as I could give him, which wasn't a lot.
A friend? Do all your friends ask you To research third world military contractors? He had questions about his daughter's death.
She was serving in Afghanistan.
He thinks Jericho is involved? The things he told me they were in confidence.
Oh.
I can respect that.
Thanks.
Do you mind if I talk with him? Maybe ask him a few questions? What's his name? Aaron Stark.
Good luck finding him.
He's off the grid.
I don't even know where he is - Or how to track him down.
- Thank you, Mark.
Sure.
Hey.
Just heard on the scanner LAPD's in the middle of a high-speed Chase.
Driver Ross Webber has been spotted with a gun.
Car they're following '71 blue Sedan.
The shooter from the homeless shelter? How many criminals are driving the same disco era sedans, right? Any idea where they're headed? There's your blue sedan.
Where is he? Right inside.
A bunch of people ran out.
He's got hostages.
- Where in the building is he? - Second floor.
- Who's talking to him? - No one yet.
You think he's just gonna come out on his own? Captain doesn't want us to do anything till he gets here.
Shots fired! Get down! Stay down! You hang back.
I talk to him, try to make sure he releases the hostage.
- Once he does, you take your shot.
- Sounds good, Except for the part about me staying on the sidelines.
No way you're going down there.
Listen, I'm not gonna let that gun kill one more person.
March 15th I know that's the day you're supposed to die.
Who says you didn't get shot three days earlier? Who the hell is that?! I'm right here! Try not to shoot me.
- Oh! - Stop.
Oh.
I told them the only person I want to talk to is Randy Savage! Macho man? Yeah, I dig that.
Uh, that's not me.
My name's Demetri.
Oh, God! You don't turn around in four seconds, I will kill her, Demetri.
Doesn't matter to me.
She's just a saleswoman.
That's what she gets for causing the blackout.
- I said stop! - Okay.
Ross, you still have that gun, right? I'm gonna take the clip off now.
Here we go.
Gone, buddy.
And, uh On my ankle, I got a gun, man.
I'm gonna take that off, too, okay? We're not worrying about that anymore.
Hey, what were you saying, though, about About how salespeople caused the blackout? That's That's a fascinating theory.
I'd like to hear more about it.
They made us buy cell phones.
Uh-huh.
See, before everybody had a cell phone, Nobody ever blacked out.
None of this ever stop moving! Okay.
You think I won't kill you? You're about just plain incorrect.
I'm not afraid.
It's okay.
Everybody's scared of dying, man.
She is.
Look at her I'm scared of dying All three of us.
It's what makes us human, don't you think? You're scared.
That's fine.
See, when people get scared, judgment gets clouded.
I'll be honest, man.
You have made some really bad decisions today.
But you can make a really good one, right now If you just give me the gun.
Ross.
Come on.
Let me save your life.
Uhh! E.
M.
T.
says he's stable.
We can question him in the hospital.
It's not your gun.
Serial number is totally different.
Your gun's still out there.
So you almost got yourself killed for nothing? Yeah, I guess so.
All right.
You took him down, Saved an innocent woman.
That's fantastic work.
What I can't understand is, If you thought that gun was gonna kill you, I mean Cops had the place surrounded.
He was never gonna make it out of here anyway.
That's why I needed to get to him, man So I could ask him why.
Ugh.
Do you remember That speech you gave my first day on the job? It was all about being the kind of Person Who could be counted on To do the right thing at the right time.
And, man, since October 6th, when I didn't see anything, I have had a lot of trouble being that person.
And I need your help.
Why? I mean, look at me.
If you think I've been making good choices lately, You're crazier than I thought.
I'll do anything to help you, Demetri, so I'm gonna tell you something, and I really want you to listen.
Get out of here.
You and Zoey just get out of here.
I'm not running away.
That's right.
You're not.
You're being smart.
Just promise me you'll go somewhere safe.
Special Agent Noh, do you recognize exhibit "h"? Yes.
It's a copy of my notes Taken while witnessing the transaction.
And those handwritten notes are your only record of the events? Well, it was a very simple money-for-stolen-goods exchange.
Hmm.
Wow.
That is very good.
Agent Noh, who taught you to draw? I guess I'm just naturally artistic.
Wow.
Lucky guy, right? Now your description here Of the alleged buyer oh, here, further down in your notes Can you read that for the court, please? Uh, "Caucasian male, average height/weight, Dark jacket, baseball cap.
" Hmm.
When my client was booked, He was photographed wearing a red jacket, not a dark one, wasn't he? Yes.
And he clearly has a goatee, does he not, Agent Noh? - Yes.
- So which individual bought the stolen computer disk, Agent Noh The one with the goatee Or the one in your artistic notes? Because they're obviously not the same person.
- Objection argumentative.
- Sustained.
- Do I get to answer that? - Not really.
No further questions.
I'm done with this witness.
Oh, you can go now.
Come on.
There's no need to take it personally.
That was a win that you just turned into a loss.
It was never really a win, because you were wrong.
Wow.
You know what? Um, I'm gonna go ahead and take the stairs.
You know what? Look, I'm I'm sorry.
I will turn the defense attorney off.
Okay, that would be an instant improvement.
Why don't you let me make it up to you? Can I Take you to dinner? Ha! You gotta be kidding me.
What? There's not a chance in hell I would ever go out with you.
- Hey.
- Hey.
How are you? Good.
Sit down.
I want to talk to you.
It's okay.
Wow.
You're beautiful.
Shut up.
What is wrong with you? Nothing.
It's good.
You know, I wasn't supposed to be there that day.
What day? Al Gough was supposed to be Mark's partner.
I switched with him, and because I was Mark's partner, I was covering the bust that led me to you.
All these tiny little decisions we make, you know, Without thinking, they they all They all line up to lead us somewhere - Somewhere good.
- Yeah.
So I want to ask you if you will Marry me.
Baby, we covered this.
I I said yeah.
- No, I want to get married right now.
- Okay.
I want to get married tomorrow.
Then we get on a plane and we go to Hawaii.
We stay there through the 15th, maybe through April 29th.

- Want to do it? - Are you serious? - I'm serious.
- Hell, yes! Yes? Of course! Oh, I love you.
Mm.
Hey.
Hi.

I just wanted to come by and say thanks for What you did with Charlie today in the park.
Okay, um No problem.
Well, thank you.
Can I can I get you to come in? I just left the water running, but please, please come in.
Sure.
I'm sorry.
The dishes were getting kind of out of control.
Can I get you something to drink? Um, I could offer you a carton of milk that expired yesterday, Some juice boxes or a bottle of gin.
No.
No, I think I I think I should be going.
- Really? - Yeah.
Thank you for today.
Yeah, I do have a telephone.
You could've called to say thank you.
Olivia Why are you here? I don't know.
I've just made such a mess of things.
I wish I could blame it all on Mark, but I really can't.
I made a ton of mistakes.
I know that feeling.
I tried my best with Linda after Dylan was born, but To be honest, I I used his autism As an excuse to get away from her.
Even the thought of that makes me ashamed now.
I thought I was doing the right thing at the time.
You're damned if you do, And then you're damned if you don't.
Yeah, maybe we just Choose to live in the moment, you know, just grab the Good things in our life when we recognize them.
- I have to go.
- Look.
Wait.
I'm not trying to argue against Mark.
He's a brave man doing something extraordinary.
Yeah, he is.
This does kind of put me in a Lancelot-trying-to-persuade-Guinevere position.
Oh, you did not just compare yourself to Lancelot.
Yeah, well, the only other metaphor I had Involved protons and neutrons, and believe me, Under the circumstances, I went with the stronger choice.
I know that we're feeling the same thing right now.
How do you know what I'm feeling? Because I'm in that room on April the 29th.
That wasn't an accident.
This scares me.
It should.
Who the hell are you? It's okay, Aaron.
I work with Mark.
I'm a friend.
You mind telling me how you found me? There was a computer in Echo Park doing Web searches For a "Jericho Parwan Afghanistan," "Jericho central base" And "Jericho murder U.
S.
Soldiers.
" That library's 2 miles from here.
And this is the 14th cash-only hotel I've hit.
Well, here I am.
Now what? Mark didn't want to tell me why you were so interested in Jericho.
But some very powerful people would love to take them down.
All they need is proof.
They got my daughter.
- They kill her? - They tried.
She's still alive.
- But in your file it - Tracy's alive.
She was here, but Jericho found her and took her back to Afghanistan.
I gotta believe I've only got so much time left to find her.
Wait.
You're you're you're going to Afghanistan? Sure am.
I know you were in the service and everything, But how are you planning on getting there? Fly into Uzbekistan, cross the border at Termez.
And you're doing this with a U.
S.
Passport? - Yeah.
- You'll be dead before you leave Hairaton.
I don't have a choice.
Do you know why Jericho tried to kill your daughter two years ago? She saw Jericho wipe out an entire village.
If I could help you get to Tracy Do you think she would tell us the whole story? Really? You can do that legally? - Hey, Demetri.
Come here.
- What? Come here.
- Yo, I'm getting married.
- Come here.
I'm getting married.
So would you be okay with Vreede officiating at your wedding? Define "okay.
" No charge.
Consider it my wedding gift.
Whoa.
You're gonna marry him? Vreede's an Internet minister.
Have I ever told you how awesome you are, Shelly Vreede? - Ohh.
- You make me feel loved.
- Janis, you're awesome, too.
- Oh, thank you.
Janis is awesome.
That's very sweet.
Thank you.
- All right.
- Mark is awesome.
- Time to take the groom home.
- Yeah.
Let's find a cab.
- Here we go, buddy.
- All right.
Oh.
Okay, I'm sleepy.
- yeah.
- Good night.
You got military clearance.
Your cover is you're in Afghanistan to help install their power grid.
Satellite phone.
Video capability.
As soon as you can document what Tracy knows, I want it uploaded.
If you see any Jericho activity, I want it uploaded Pictures, video, audio, anything you can get me.
No problem.
Get yourself to Bagram as soon as you're clear.
Military transports leave every two days.
- I'll arrange a flight home.
- Excellent.
I'm guessing You don't need me to tell you what to do with these.
I got a couple ideas.
Ah, all this gear is clean.
None of it can be traced back to this agency.
If they find you You're on your own.
Is that it? I guess it is.
Thank you, Stan.
This isn't something I think I need to tell you, but There's a very good chance you're never coming back.
I saw myself with my daughter.
We were together in Afghanistan, And she was alive.
God help anyone who stands in my way.
Do you think I'm chicken for running away? Sometimes the best offense is a good defense.
No, Janis, I'm just scared.
You played this out as best as you could.
Everybody needs a successful exit strategy.
This is yours.
Hey, um I want you to know, um That night in Somalia - Oh, Demetri, don't.
- No, I want to.
I-I have to Stop.
- Just stop.
- No, uh This may be my last chance, all right? I'm pregnant.
What? Janis.
Janis! Oh, my gosh.
This is perfect.
My mom is gonna be so excited.
Well, I'm happy to let you use the space, But since you aren't members here, And, uh, since we didn't do any premarital counseling Oh, we don't need any premarital counseling.
- We've been living together for a year.
- I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that.
Listen, you, uh, need to get married this afternoon Fine.
But under these circumstances, You're going to need to find somebody else to officiate for you.
Hey, I never heard.
Did you, uh, track down Aaron? I guess he didn't want to be found.
Guys, you gotta see this.
- It's Frost.
- You found him? His phone was activated 12 days ago at a convenience store On the corner of Western and Washington 3:18 P.
M.
3:19, a man fitting Frost's description Walks to a 1971 Citroen DS Sedan powder blue, silver top.
A match from the shelter.
- Mm-hmm.
- Wait a minute.
Dyson Frost made a videotape for you 19 years ago, Then encoded a phone number for you to find.
And then after all that, instead of meeting with you, He's murdering a homeless guy? But he used my gun to do it.
He may be crazy, but he isn't random.
There's a method here.
We just don't understand what it is yet.
Any word from the LAPD on the search for Frost's vehicle? - Still looking.
- I'll stay on top of it.
Well, let's keep putting the pressure on.
Guys, can we stop with the shoptalk? - This is a special occasion.
- It's just like Demetri to be late for his own wedding.
He's not answering his cell.
I called three times.
Let me try.
Demetri Noh.
Leave a message.
- Nothing.
- What is it? Guys, where is he? Ticket booth right by the entrance.
Don't forget to buy your raffle tickets Get some cotton candy! - Hey, sweetie.

Wheel of fortune one spin for three tickets.
You want to give me? Round and round she goes, And where she stops, nobody knows.
Uh Hey.

Where are you? Uh, school, uh, carnival.
Well, listen, I'm calling because I'm not gonna make it.
- I need you to keep Charlie.
- Oh.
How come? - Something's happened to Demetri.
- What? Not sure what it is yet.
He didn't show up at the wedding.
I just thought you should know.
Wow.
What do you think happened? I don't know.
I hope it's just cold feet, Because it's almost March 15th, and this is too close for comfort.
- Olivia? - Yeah? - Be careful.
- Of course.
- Kiss Charlie for me.
- I will.
Uh, hang on, kids.
Uh Charlie! Charlie! Hello, Charlie.
Find Dyson Frost yesterday.
The next move is Mark Benford's.
Dyson Frost? It's your move.
I took this picture.
She saw something she shouldn't have And got in trouble with Jericho.
The second that Jericho knows that I'm still alive - They'll find me, and they'll kill me.
- Tracy Stark I know you took her.
Now you're gonna give her back.
- I can't give you your daughter back.
- Then we go to war.
You will be shot 3 times on March 15th.
- It will be your gun, Agent Benford.
- Demetri? - Yeah? - The box is here, but the gun is gone.
My first term was a bitch.
I could have used you, Stan.
I'm sorry I couldn't bring you in.
I don't want you to think I-I'm harassing you.
I know.
You're just trying to save the world.
Good-bye.
She was signaling her handlers.
I should have known two moles, In case one is caught and not one person in the office Would suspect it's you.
Today is more than just the beginning of your career.
Today, along with a badge and a gun, You're gonna get a story about your first day on the job.
Every special Agent has one.
Some are funny.
Some are tragic.
Some are boring.
But today won't be the most important day In your career as an FBI Agent.
That day is somewhere down the line.
You won't see it coming.
It sneaks up on you.
It'll most likely be an anonymous moment A crossroads where you're asked to do something, Make some kind of personal sacrifice For the good of someone else, and that person may never know Your name or see your face or even understand what you did.
But you'll know.
And isn't that why you're here, after all? Because you can be counted on to do the right thing At the right time, every time.
Welcome to the FBI.
Well done.
Nicely done.
All right, ladies and gentlemen.
See me for your partner assignments.
Congratulations.
- Nicely done.
- Special Agent Vreede Is it "Vreed-y" or "Vreede" as in "freed"? Oh, I don't know.
I got Benford.
No.
Switch with me.
- Why? - He's a legend.
He's done it all Surveillance, counterterrorism, trafficking.
Come on.
- Do it.
- Whatever, but you gotta take it up with Wedeck and get it approved.
Done.
Thank you.
- Of course.
- Yes! - Janis, who'd you get? - No partner.
Headed to analysis.
Boring.
You know, I got it worse.
I report to you.
I mean, how could that be? I scored higher.
Yeah, in, like, one category.
- Come on, Marcie.
We'll have fun.
- Yeah, we've been a team since Quantico - Booze and bullets.
- Yeah, well, what am I, the mascot? No, you're like our Captain.
Yeah, you'll probably outpace all of us.
I'm sure of it.
Yeah, we're we're sure.
Interview of Marcie Turoff, Agents Benford and Noh questioning.
March 12, 2010.
First thing we'd like to know is Who came after us in that parking garage in D.
C.
? I don't know.
Who came after us in the parking garage in D.
C.
? I don't know.
On to the next.
Are they still after us? - I don't know.
- Demetri.
- Who killed Ian McKinnon? - Come on.
Let's go.
- Is that who's coming after me? - Let's go.
We need those answers.
Yeah, but there are a whole lot of other ones we need to get to first.
Listen, Dem.
You think I don't have March 15th circled in my calendar, too? We both know there's a chance you'll die in three days.
Look, you keep chasing down leads.
I'll let you know when we're ready for your questions, alright? Hey, Janis, I need your help in here with Marcie.
Me? What, you got something more important than grilling our mole? No.
Of course not.
What were your duties? Every week, I'd take whatever information there was In the mosaic investigation and leave it at a dead drop.
Who recruited you? I was approached by a man three months before the blackout hit.
What was his name? All in due time.
He asked if I wanted to be a part of something big.
And you said yes.
You think I sold out my friends and my country, but You don't know me.
Why don't you enlighten us? Come on.
Don't you remember my flash-forward? No, you don't, 'cause neither of you ever bothered to ask me what I saw.
I was incarcerated.
That didn't cross your mind When you shot six of your fellow agents? It did.
But even though I was in jail, I was happier than I've been in years.
I thought we'd have to beg for life without parole.
I told you they'd come around.
Until I tell them who recruited me, I'm indispensable.
For the first time since I got here, I actually felt like I was important.
I need you, Mark.
These are our guests from Washington.
And while they're grateful for all our efforts - In apprehending Agent Turoff - Oh, no.
You gotta be kidding.
Director Middleton feels more comfortable Having such a highly valued target where he can keep an eye on her.
And where he can give the press conferences himself.
Hear me out.
We know her.
We can read her.
Just give us one more day.
I know it's frustrating, But let's try to get something positive done today Like maybe get back to what caused the blackout.
Now I'll be out of the office for a couple of hours, So give me an update.
Dyson Frost He's our best lead so far.
Where are we? I've left four messages.
Haven't heard back.
I'm afraid he's just toying with us.
The guy's been wanting to talk to you for 19 years, And now he's playing hard to get? Shel, see what you can get by tracing Frost's phone.
Yes, sir.
Hey, I just got a call from l.
A.
P.
D.
They've got a ballistics report saying that Mark's gun, The one that's supposed to kill me in three days, Was used in a murder last night.
So what do we know from the eyewitness reports? 55-year-old, in his cot, Presumably asleep.
At 3:33 a.
m.
, the shooter walked up to him, And a couple of insomniacs heard the victim say I knew it would be you.
I just didn't want to believe.
The shooter must have had a silencer on your gun.
He plugged him three times in the chest at close range.
Uh, do you want to put that thing away? - Sorry.
- Thanks.
Physical description ranging from 5'5" white guy to a 6' Indian.
Another dead end.
Wasn't there something about a car? Uh Somebody said they saw a 1970s blue sedan drive away Foreign make.
That's a start.
LAPD's gonna forward the victim's effects to us.
Can't wait to sift through that.
Forget about the shooter.
Who's the one other person we know who handled that gun? There were 40 agents in that evidence room.
They were all cleared months ago.
One of those agents Marcie? Marcie! - Stop! Stop! - You guys never give up.
- I need to talk to her.
- She's in our custody now.
You can't take her.
She's part of our investigation.
I'm just doing my job, same as you doing yours.
- Who'd you give my gun to, Marcie? - I don't know.
- Come on.
Who has it? - I don't know.
Come on.
Don't do this.
We were friends.
Look, I'm sorry.
Really, I am.
All I heard is that you're supposed to die in L.
A.
What? Give me more specifics.
- Who does it? When? - It was a voice on the phone When I called to report the gun in lockup.
Who'd you call? A number.
It was different every time.
Look, that's all I know.
There isn't any more.
Look, you're gonna die in three days, And there's nothing you can do to stop it.
I'm sorry.
- Come on.
- Marcie, come on.
Marcie! Marcie! Marcie! Come on, come on! Sweetie, what is the hurry? We're here.
I told him we'd be here by 2:00.
We're late.
- Who? - Dylan! Hey, Dylan.
Nuts to you, Squirrlio! Toot! Toot! - Come on, Dylan! - Okay, I'm coming.
Did you know about this? Absolutely not.
Charlie, who arranged this? I did! I got Dylan's phone number from him When he was in the hospital.
He was very insistent about this specific park, And now I know why.
Do you normally come here? Well, the house is just around the corner.
Right.
- This is fun.
- Come on.
You go first.
- Look, I can sit on a bench or something.
- It's fine.
Doesn't have to be that way.
Charlie? - Dylan, what happened? - Let me see, sweetie.
- We bonked heads.
- Did he hit your teeth? Let me see, baby.
Okay, Charlie, let's see.
Open up.
- I'm bleeding.
- Okay.
Let me see.
- She okay? - Open your mouth.
Here we go, Charlie.
I want you to do something now.
Just grab my hand, and when it hurts, I want you to squeeze as hard as possible, okay? Is that all you got? Come on.
You try a little bit harder than that.
That's good.
Does this mean I can't go to the carnival, mommy? No, I think you're gonna be just fine for the carnival.
I think you're gonna be okay.
Yeah, that's good.
I'm starting to feel that a bit now.
Listen, I'm just gonna go back to the car and get a bottle of water and a towel.
- You'll be okay.
- Okay.
Yeah.
I see carnivals in your future.
Come here.
I wanna go.
I know.
Come here.
It's okay, sweetie.
Assistant director Wedeck? That's me.
Come this way.
- She's ready for you.
- Thank you.
Madame vice president.
Good to see you, Stan.
It's been quite a while.
- Please sit.
- Thank you.
Thanks for coming on such short notice, Stan.
How is everything? You want to tell me why the hell you dragged me out here? It's nice to know my new position Hasn't changed your attitude towards me.
Does the name Jericho ring a bell? They're a private contractor operating over in Afghanistan.
I've heard of them.
Agent Benford look into them a while back.
Yes? Well, in my security briefing this morning, I learned that Jericho's C.
E.
O.
just tripled the security Around his Malibu compound.
I think you should take a look.
Wrong department.
NSA is who you want to call.
I don't want them to know.
I need this done off the books.
The vice president doesn't fly across the country 'cause some guy hired an extra night watchman.
In my vision, it was clear that Jericho had done some things That threatened our national security.
The same vision where you saw yourself as president? As a matter of fact, yes.
And I was there because Jericho Did something that triggered a political crisis.
I can't find out anything about what they're doing.
But if it's bad enough to bring down president Segovia, It must be significant.
I've been keeping a close eye on every move they make, And something is happening right now.
Are you sure you don't know what it is? And even if I did, Dave and I go back 25 years.
Listen, these flash-forwards are coming true.
Segovia is going down.
Do you want to be out with the old or in with the new? Well now we know your gun's here in L.
A.
Yeah, too bad Marcie couldn't tell us who's using it.
So I'll run this car info, See if anything pings on a 1970s blue sedan.
- We're gonna get this guy.
- Yeah.
Got a sec, Mark? Jericho You used our database to look into them a few months ago.
Is that a problem? No, no.
Just curious why you did.
It was a favor for a friend Wanted as much information as I could give him, which wasn't a lot.
A friend? Do all your friends ask you To research third world military contractors? He had questions about his daughter's death.
She was serving in Afghanistan.
He thinks Jericho is involved? The things he told me they were in confidence.
Oh.
I can respect that.
Thanks.
Do you mind if I talk with him? Maybe ask him a few questions? What's his name? Aaron Stark.
Good luck finding him.
He's off the grid.
I don't even know where he is - Or how to track him down.
- Thank you, Mark.
Sure.
Hey.
Just heard on the scanner LAPD's in the middle of a high-speed Chase.
Driver Ross Webber has been spotted with a gun.
Car they're following '71 blue Sedan.
The shooter from the homeless shelter? How many criminals are driving the same disco era sedans, right? Any idea where they're headed? There's your blue sedan.
Where is he? Right inside.
A bunch of people ran out.
He's got hostages.
- Where in the building is he? - Second floor.
- Who's talking to him? - No one yet.
You think he's just gonna come out on his own? Captain doesn't want us to do anything till he gets here.
Shots fired! Get down! Stay down! You hang back.
I talk to him, try to make sure he releases the hostage.
- Once he does, you take your shot.
- Sounds good, Except for the part about me staying on the sidelines.
No way you're going down there.
Listen, I'm not gonna let that gun kill one more person.
March 15th I know that's the day you're supposed to die.
Who says you didn't get shot three days earlier? Who the hell is that?! I'm right here! Try not to shoot me.
- Oh! - Stop.
Oh.
I told them the only person I want to talk to is Randy Savage! Macho man? Yeah, I dig that.
Uh, that's not me.
My name's Demetri.
Oh, God! You don't turn around in four seconds, I will kill her, Demetri.
Doesn't matter to me.
She's just a saleswoman.
That's what she gets for causing the blackout.
- I said stop! - Okay.
Ross, you still have that gun, right? I'm gonna take the clip off now.
Here we go.
Gone, buddy.
And, uh On my ankle, I got a gun, man.
I'm gonna take that off, too, okay? We're not worrying about that anymore.
Hey, what were you saying, though, about About how salespeople caused the blackout? That's That's a fascinating theory.
I'd like to hear more about it.
They made us buy cell phones.
Uh-huh.
See, before everybody had a cell phone, Nobody ever blacked out.
None of this ever stop moving! Okay.
You think I won't kill you? You're about just plain incorrect.
I'm not afraid.
It's okay.
Everybody's scared of dying, man.
She is.
Look at her I'm scared of dying All three of us.
It's what makes us human, don't you think? You're scared.
That's fine.
See, when people get scared, judgment gets clouded.
I'll be honest, man.
You have made some really bad decisions today.
But you can make a really good one, right now If you just give me the gun.
Ross.
Come on.
Let me save your life.
Uhh! E.
M.
T.
says he's stable.
We can question him in the hospital.
It's not your gun.
Serial number is totally different.
Your gun's still out there.
So you almost got yourself killed for nothing? Yeah, I guess so.
All right.
You took him down, Saved an innocent woman.
That's fantastic work.
What I can't understand is, If you thought that gun was gonna kill you, I mean Cops had the place surrounded.
He was never gonna make it out of here anyway.
That's why I needed to get to him, man So I could ask him why.
Ugh.
Do you remember That speech you gave my first day on the job? It was all about being the kind of Person Who could be counted on To do the right thing at the right time.
And, man, since October 6th, when I didn't see anything, I have had a lot of trouble being that person.
And I need your help.
Why? I mean, look at me.
If you think I've been making good choices lately, You're crazier than I thought.
I'll do anything to help you, Demetri, so I'm gonna tell you something, and I really want you to listen.
Get out of here.
You and Zoey just get out of here.
I'm not running away.
That's right.
You're not.
You're being smart.
Just promise me you'll go somewhere safe.
Special Agent Noh, do you recognize exhibit "h"? Yes.
It's a copy of my notes Taken while witnessing the transaction.
And those handwritten notes are your only record of the events? Well, it was a very simple money-for-stolen-goods exchange.
Hmm.
Wow.
That is very good.
Agent Noh, who taught you to draw? I guess I'm just naturally artistic.
Wow.
Lucky guy, right? Now your description here Of the alleged buyer oh, here, further down in your notes Can you read that for the court, please? Uh, "Caucasian male, average height/weight, Dark jacket, baseball cap.
" Hmm.
When my client was booked, He was photographed wearing a red jacket, not a dark one, wasn't he? Yes.
And he clearly has a goatee, does he not, Agent Noh? - Yes.
- So which individual bought the stolen computer disk, Agent Noh The one with the goatee Or the one in your artistic notes? Because they're obviously not the same person.
- Objection argumentative.
- Sustained.
- Do I get to answer that? - Not really.
No further questions.
I'm done with this witness.
Oh, you can go now.
Come on.
There's no need to take it personally.
That was a win that you just turned into a loss.
It was never really a win, because you were wrong.
Wow.
You know what? Um, I'm gonna go ahead and take the stairs.
You know what? Look, I'm I'm sorry.
I will turn the defense attorney off.
Okay, that would be an instant improvement.
Why don't you let me make it up to you? Can I Take you to dinner? Ha! You gotta be kidding me.
What? There's not a chance in hell I would ever go out with you.
- Hey.
- Hey.
How are you? Good.
Sit down.
I want to talk to you.
It's okay.
Wow.
You're beautiful.
Shut up.
What is wrong with you? Nothing.
It's good.
You know, I wasn't supposed to be there that day.
What day? Al Gough was supposed to be Mark's partner.
I switched with him, and because I was Mark's partner, I was covering the bust that led me to you.
All these tiny little decisions we make, you know, Without thinking, they they all They all line up to lead us somewhere - Somewhere good.
- Yeah.
So I want to ask you if you will Marry me.
Baby, we covered this.
I I said yeah.
- No, I want to get married right now.
- Okay.
I want to get married tomorrow.
Then we get on a plane and we go to Hawaii.
We stay there through the 15th, maybe through April 29th.
Listen, maybe we don't ever come home.
- Want to do it? - Are you serious? - I'm serious.
- Hell, yes! Yes? Of course! Oh, I love you.
Mm.
Hey.
Hi.
I sorry.
I just wanted to come by and say thanks for What you did with Charlie today in the park.
Okay, um No problem.
Well, thank you.
Can I can I get you to come in? I just left the water running, but please, please come in.
Sure.
I'm sorry.
The dishes were getting kind of out of control.
Can I get you something to drink? Um, I could offer you a carton of milk that expired yesterday, Some juice boxes or a bottle of gin.
No.
No, I think I I think I should be going.
- Really? - Yeah.
Thank you for today.
Yeah, I do have a telephone.
You could've called to say thank you.
Olivia Why are you here? I don't know.
I've just made such a mess of things.
I wish I could blame it all on Mark, but I really can't.
I made a ton of mistakes.
I know that feeling.
I tried my best with Linda after Dylan was born, but To be honest, I I used his autism As an excuse to get away from her.
Even the thought of that makes me ashamed now.
I thought I was doing the right thing at the time.
You're damned if you do, And then you're damned if you don't.
Yeah, maybe we just Choose to live in the moment, you know, just grab the Good things in our life when we recognize them.
- I have to go.
- Look.
Wait.
I'm not trying to argue against Mark.
He's a brave man doing something extraordinary.
Yeah, he is.
This does kind of put me in a Lancelot-trying-to-persuade-Guinevere position.
Oh, you did not just compare yourself to Lancelot.
Yeah, well, the only other metaphor I had Involved protons and neutrons, and believe me, Under the circumstances, I went with the stronger choice.
I know that we're feeling the same thing right now.
How do you know what I'm feeling? Because I'm in that room on April the 29th.
That wasn't an accident.
This scares me.
It should.
Who the hell are you? It's okay, Aaron.
I work with Mark.
I'm a friend.
You mind telling me how you found me? There was a computer in Echo Park doing Web searches For a "Jericho Parwan Afghanistan," "Jericho central base" And "Jericho murder U.
S.
Soldiers.
" That library's 2 miles from here.
And this is the 14th cash-only hotel I've hit.
Well, here I am.
Now what? Mark didn't want to tell me why you were so interested in Jericho.
But some very powerful people would love to take them down.
All they need is proof.
They got my daughter.
- They kill her? - They tried.
She's still alive.
- But in your file it - Tracy's alive.
She was here, but Jericho found her and took her back to Afghanistan.
I gotta believe I've only got so much time left to find her.
Wait.
You're you're you're going to Afghanistan? Sure am.
I know you were in the service and everything, But how are you planning on getting there? Fly into Uzbekistan, cross the border at Termez.
And you're doing this with a U.
S.
Passport? - Yeah.
- You'll be dead before you leave Hairaton.
I don't have a choice.
Do you know why Jericho tried to kill your daughter two years ago? She saw Jericho wipe out an entire village.
If I could help you get to Tracy Do you think she would tell us the whole story? Really? You can do that legally? - Hey, Demetri.
Come here.
- What? Come here.
- Yo, I'm getting married.
- Come here.
I'm getting married.
So would you be okay with Vreede officiating at your wedding? Define "okay.
" No charge.
Consider it my wedding gift.
Whoa.
You're gonna marry him? Vreede's an Internet minister.
Have I ever told you how awesome you are, Shelly Vreede? - Ohh.
- You make me feel loved.
- Janis, you're awesome, too.
- Oh, thank you.
Janis is awesome.
That's very sweet.
Thank you.
- All right.
- Mark is awesome.
- Time to take the groom home.
- Yeah.
Let's find a cab.
- Here we go, buddy.
- All right.
Oh.
Okay, I'm sleepy.
- yeah.
- Good night.
You got military clearance.
Your cover is you're in Afghanistan to help install their power grid.
Satellite phone.
Video capability.
As soon as you can document what Tracy knows, I want it uploaded.
If you see any Jericho activity, I want it uploaded Pictures, video, audio, anything you can get me.
No problem.
Get yourself to Bagram as soon as you're clear.
Military transports leave every two days.
- I'll arrange a flight home.
- Excellent.
I'm guessing You don't need me to tell you what to do with these.
I got a couple ideas.
Ah, all this gear is clean.
None of it can be traced back to this agency.
If they find you You're on your own.
Is that it? I guess it is.
Thank you, Stan.
This isn't something I think I need to tell you, but There's a very good chance you're never coming back.
I saw myself with my daughter.
We were together in Afghanistan, And she was alive.
God help anyone who stands in my way.
Do you think I'm chicken for running away? Sometimes the best offense is a good defense.
No, Janis, I'm just scared.
You played this out as best as you could.
Everybody needs a successful exit strategy.
This is yours.
Hey, um I want you to know, um That night in Somalia - Oh, Demetri, don't.
- No, I want to.
I-I have to Stop.
- Just stop.
- No, uh This may be my last chance, all right? I'm pregnant.
What? Janis.
Janis! Oh, my gosh.
This is perfect.
My mom is gonna be so excited.
Well, I'm happy to let you use the space, But since you aren't members here, And, uh, since we didn't do any premarital counseling Oh, we don't need any premarital counseling.
- We've been living together for a year.
- I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that.
Listen, you, uh, need to get married this afternoon Fine.
But under these circumstances, You're going to need to find somebody else to officiate for you.
Hey, I never heard.
Did you, uh, track down Aaron? I guess he didn't want to be found.
Guys, you gotta see this.
- It's Frost.
- You found him? His phone was activated 12 days ago at a convenience store On the corner of Western and Washington 3:18 P.
M.
3:19, a man fitting Frost's description Walks to a 1971 Citroen DS Sedan powder blue, silver top.
A match from the shelter.
- Mm-hmm.
- Wait a minute.
Dyson Frost made a videotape for you 19 years ago, Then encoded a phone number for you to find.
And then after all that, instead of meeting with you, He's murdering a homeless guy? But he used my gun to do it.
He may be crazy, but he isn't random.
There's a method here.
We just don't understand what it is yet.
Any word from the LAPD on the search for Frost's vehicle? - Still looking.
- I'll stay on top of it.
Well, let's keep putting the pressure on.
Guys, can we stop with the shoptalk? - This is a special occasion.
- It's just like Demetri to be late for his own wedding.
He's not answering his cell.
I called three times.
Let me try.
Demetri Noh.
Leave a message.
- Nothing.
- What is it? Guys, where is he? Ticket booth right by the entrance.

I just thought you should know.
Wow.

- I will.
Uh, hang on, kids.
