Uniforms cleared The first two floors, But they don't have shields, So,they backed off In case the guy Went active.

Priority is on "who" And "where.
" Bonus points for "why"? Parker: Okay,guys, We've got 12 floors, A dozen offices Per floor.

All right, Let's narrow it down.
Spike: Okay,i got the building's Head of security.
His guys on these floors Have reported no disturbances.
He's awaiting instructions.
Ed: Okay,tell him to lock down The elevators.
First priority is to immobilize And contain the threat.
Spike: Copy that.
He came up this way.
He starts yelling At the other guy Who was just coming out.
Then he pulls a gun And makes the other guy Turn around And go back inside.
Parker: Do you know Either of the men? Well,i seen the guy He was pointing the gun at.
The lawyer.
He's a lawyer? I'm pretty sure he hangs out With the other lawyers From the building.
What was he yelling? Something about his kids.
Somebody took his kids.
Okay,and you said it seemed Like they knew each other? Parker: Do you know where His office is? Well,it's not on The first floor; I got my office there.
I know everybody.

Law firms from here to here, And here and here.
Jules: Hey,guys,my witness says They seemed to know each other.
This is personal.
Something about losing His kids.
So,he's stressed.
He's just suffered a loss.
How stressed Do you have to be To come after a lawyer? So,what, The guy grabs the lawyer, Takes him To his own office? Or he grabs the guy And takes him To the most convenient office.
Ed: All right, Until we learn more, We'll do it the hard way.

I will not lose them.
I haven't come this far, I haven't worked this hard Just to walk away.
Now start talking! This guy sees this other guy, Like he's waiting for him, Then he gets out of his car.

One employee: Amanda martin,paralegal.
Parker: She could be in the office As well.
She could be at risk.
Wordy,get eyes in.
We may have a second citizen In there.
A possible hostage.
Maybe somebody injured Or hiding.
Wordy: Copy that.
Man: You know exactly What's going on.
Now that she's got 'em? She takes 'em back to ireland, Her parents help her out And i never see them again.
Well,that is not Going to happen! The subject's telling him Now that she's got the kids, She's taking them back To ireland to her parents; He'll never see them again.
Spike: Checked with the uniforms, Amanda martin's car Is in her space in the garage.
- A couple people Saw her at work today.
- Parker: Chances are she's inside.
She's a wild card.
I don't like wild cards.
Maybe we get lucky And she's outside the building.
Boss,there's no way We can go in 'Till we've located her.
Hey,spike, The subject's car is registered To a donald mitchell.

Sam: Two rooms.
Wordy: My guess, She's in the closet.
If she's hiding, Or even in there.
Parker: Well,we got uniforms Checking the crowd for her.
You know, Nobody's found her yet.
Can we get a cam Into that closet? Wordy: If i go in through The outside wall.
It's concrete.
- Might take a while.
- Fast is good.
Get eyes into the main office, Then we'll focus on the closet.
- Copy that.
- Okay,quick and quiet.
Guys,as far as i can tell, Mitchell's a solid citizen.
No arrests, Not even a speeding ticket.
Parker: What about the custody case? Spike: Well,according to the clerk In family law, It was a really nasty one.
- And donald lost the kids.
- Spike: No,he won.
He got full custody.
Say that again? He got custody? His wife's stealing the kids.
So this isn't about revenge On a lawyer.
This is about A parental abduction.

His guys on these floors Have reported no disturbances.
He's awaiting instructions.
Ed: Okay,tell him to lock down The elevators.
First priority is to immobilize And contain the threat.
Spike: Copy that.
He came up this way.
He starts yelling At the other guy Who was just coming out.
Then he pulls a gun And makes the other guy Turn around And go back inside.
Parker: Do you know Either of the men? Well,i seen the guy He was pointing the gun at.
The lawyer.
He's a lawyer? I'm pretty sure he hangs out With the other lawyers From the building.
What was he yelling? Something about his kids.
Somebody took his kids.
Okay,and you said it seemed Like they knew each other? Parker: Do you know where His office is? Well,it's not on The first floor; I got my office there.
I know everybody.
Above that?I really don't have a clue,man.
I'm sorry.
Any idea what kind Of weapon it was?A handgun or a shotgun, Rifle A handgun.

This is personal.
Something about losing His kids.
So,he's stressed.
He's just suffered a loss.
How stressed Do you have to be To come after a lawyer? So,what, The guy grabs the lawyer, Takes him To his own office? Or he grabs the guy And takes him To the most convenient office.
Ed: All right, Until we learn more, We'll do it the hard way.
We start at the tenth floor, We work our way down.

Donald: Where are my kids? Donald, You need to calm down.
Don't you patronize me, You son of a bitch.
I will not lose them.
I haven't come this far, I haven't worked this hard Just to walk away.
Now start talking! This guy sees this other guy, Like he's waiting for him, Then he gets out of his car.

Two males arguing.

I'll track recent cases And see what might have Triggered this.
Let's keep 'em contained.
Spike: Adam westfall.
Specializes in family law.
Small office.
One employee: Amanda martin,paralegal.
Parker: She could be in the office As well.
She could be at risk.
Wordy,get eyes in.
We may have a second citizen In there.
A possible hostage.
Maybe somebody injured Or hiding.
Wordy: Copy that.
Man: You know exactly What's going on.
Now that she's got 'em? She takes 'em back to ireland, Her parents help her out And i never see them again.
Well,that is not Going to happen! The subject's telling him Now that she's got the kids, She's taking them back To ireland to her parents; He'll never see them again.
Spike: Checked with the uniforms, Amanda martin's car Is in her space in the garage.
- A couple people Saw her at work today.
- Parker: Chances are she's inside.
She's a wild card.
I don't like wild cards.
Maybe we get lucky And she's outside the building.
Boss,there's no way We can go in 'Till we've located her.
Hey,spike, The subject's car is registered To a donald mitchell.

Snake cam's good to go.
Let's figure out Where to put it.
Spike,we need the schematic For westfall's office? Coming at you.
Sam: Two rooms.
Wordy: My guess, She's in the closet.
If she's hiding, Or even in there.
Parker: Well,we got uniforms Checking the crowd for her.
You know, Nobody's found her yet.
Can we get a cam Into that closet? Wordy: If i go in through The outside wall.
It's concrete.
- Might take a while.
- Fast is good.
Get eyes into the main office, Then we'll focus on the closet.
- Copy that.
- Okay,quick and quiet.
Guys,as far as i can tell, Mitchell's a solid citizen.
No arrests, Not even a speeding ticket.
Parker: What about the custody case? Spike: Well,according to the clerk In family law, It was a really nasty one.
- And donald lost the kids.
- Spike: No,he won.
He got full custody.
Say that again? He got custody? His wife's stealing the kids.
So this isn't about revenge On a lawyer.
This is about A parental abduction.
