Flashpoint s03e03 Episode Script

Follow The Leader

You good? Yeah.
If something goes wrong, that package has to go off.
That's the deal-- Victor's orders.
Right.
Don't let us down.
We've got one shot at this.
I know.
This building has 15 floors.
The Department of Immigration takes up the first floor and the lower plaza.
If they're after civilians, then he's gonna be targeting the open immigration areas.
We have a visual on Trent.
Trent.
I've got a bomb! My grandfather kneeled down to kiss him good-bye.
My dad's only five.
He's got no idea.
He told me how the wool uniform felt rough against his chest, and he says to my dad "You take care, now.
You take care.
" So let's fast-forward.
My dad and my mom-- they're living hand to mouth 'cause no one's going to give a white guy over 40 a job.
He can't afford to live in his own neighborhood, his own neighborhood where he grew up.
So who is living there, living in his house, working his job? It's not you or you or any of you.
I'm sorry, boys, but your skin is just too white.
When I think about my grandfather, who gave his life on that beach in France for his country then I see these people, you know, this "rainbow of diversity" pouring in like sewage by the multiculti boatload, who will be one in two of us by 2050-- one in two-- and I am thinking: wow, this is a smiling, slow-moving army of occupation, and I will not live with the shame when one day a young man with my name turns to me and says, "Dad, I can't get a job.
"I can't afford a decent place to live.
"The cockroaches stole everything from us.
"Why didn't you do something? Why didn't you do something?" Well, guess what.
We are going to do something about it.
We are going to do something about it, 'cause today is Citizenship Day and we are going to celebrate it our way.
Yes, we are! Our way! Yeah! You boys are the future.
You are the future.
My man Yeah.
Derek, you're up.
It's the old glass factory.
There's 23 guys on the inside.
I don't know the targets, but he said a lot of people are gonna get hurt.
Look, I got to go.
Come on, come on, Kel, pick up, pick up.
Hey, Kel, it's me.
Uh, listen, I'm calling No reason-- I'm, I'm just calling I love you.
What are you doing? Nothing.
You talking to her? Look, Trent, we got to talk.
I got nothing to say about that.
It's about Victor.
What? His plan.
Yeah, it's need-to-know.
Trent He'll tell me when it's my turn.
Trent! You want me to tell him you got a phone in your pocket? Yeah, I didn't think so.
Okay, guys, listen up.
an unidentified male called 911 to report a series of attacks planned for today.
Multiple bombs, targets unknown.
Caller give a deadline? No, he did not.
The attacks are racially motivated.
The leader is Victor Ackland.
What do we know about him? Not a whole lot.
Five years ago he was red-flagged for handing out white supremacist literature on university campuses.
He ran with the Aryans.
Now he looks like he's gone indie.
He's got no record, no Web site.
He's a little under the radar.
Home base is this abandoned glass factory.
There are 23 subjects, and they are armed.
We got to get them before they put their plan in play.
We're gonna come at 'em from the east, split into north-south while Spike does his thing.
Team four We hit from the west.
That's right.
Extra cuffs, kids, we're going to need 'em.
Let's go, guys, let's go.
You're next.
Then it's you.
Yeah, man, I'm so ready.
It's been a long time coming.
MAN 2: Definitely.
Trent, we gotta talk.
Talk to me here.
Hey, outside.
Yeah, you can say what you need to say in front of them.
Look, I'm not playing around.
Don't touch me.
Okay?! Is there something you want to talk about here, Danny? This is between us! I'm not a kid anymore! Boys! Is there something I should know about? Anything, Eddie? No movement.
Spike? They got a network of security cams.
Wireless, which is good.
We knock out camera two, we've added Knock out camera four, we gain another 20 degrees.
Nice.
Dangerous with a rifle, deadly with geometry.
Come on, camera four, you can't hide for long.
Your consumer-grade encryption means nothing to me.
Gotcha! Okay, recording a ten-second loop of clean video.
Zone-by-zone.
Stay in contact.
Spike, you're looking for explosives.
Copy that.
Camera's looped.
We're ready to go.
All right, let's do it.
Team Four, let's move in.
Copy that.
Let's go.
You getting cold feet, Danny? No, man, no way.
You sure about that, buddy? I'm sure.
Hmm.
'Cause we've been seeing a little less of you around here.
It's the job.
They got me working weekends.
You got a girlfriend who's got you on a leash.
What are you doing with this? What did I say about cell phones? Status! Malcolm! It's impossible.
I didn't see anything! Troy, what the hell's going on?! Double trip wire at the other gate.
We missed it.
Copy.
The system's been hacked.
It's looped.
Let's go in aggressive.
Guys, split up now.
Let's go! Let's go! Cops all over us! Okay, this is not a drill! You know what to do! Trent, we've gotta get out of here.
Did you know about this? I don't want you getting hurt! Come on! Get to your stations! Trent, let's go.
I'll go with you! You want to prove your loyalty, you get to your station! Let's go! Moving out! Moving out! Moving out! Three.
Down on the ground! On the ground! On the ground now! Hands where we can see them! We have three in custody.
Copy.
Door, door, door, door! Right there! Right there! All right let's get him.
Let's get him up! Get him up! Come on! Get up.
Get him up, let's go.
Subject secure.
Entry here? Team Four's coming in the other side.
Let's stick to the script.
Shooter! Shooter Take cover! Take cover! Shooter! Greg! Greg! The boss is hit! We're under fire! Greg? Greg?! I'm okay.
I'm okay.
He took one in the arm and one in the vest! Boss, we're gonna get you out of here.
Here, take this.
Wordy, you got a visual? Yeah, it's gotta be coming from the overhead walkway! I see him.
Sam, status.
Almost there.
No No, we need to find those bombs.
I hear you, but not I'm listening.
Sam? There's a door east of us.
Take the walkway.
Let's get this guy.
Copy that.
Isn't right, boss.
What do you mean? I'm the one supposed to take the hits.
Oh Got another shooter.
Where?! To your left.
I'm gonna push him back.
Spike, Sam, what's your 20? Nearly there.
Trent? Trent? Malcolm.
Thought you were a cop.
What's going on? I got one in the arm.
Oh, yeah? Yeah.
Now they're all trying to help him-- pop, pop, pop.
Give me a shot.
No way.
No.
Come on, give me a shot.
You know how to shoot the 47? Hell, yeah.
Come on.
What the hell are you doing? He tossed the rifle.
What the hell are you doing?! Police! SRU! Stop right there! Get down! Get down! Show us your hands! Stay down! Two subjects contained.
Wordy, you see that ladder? I got it.
I'm gonna keep him pinned.
You okay? Yeah.
Drop it! Drop it now! Put your gun down, or I will shoot you! Now get on the ladder and come down here.
Move it! Get your hands on your head! Subject secure.
You okay? I'm good.
Let's move on.
No.
You need a medic.
Boss, he's got it contained.
All right? Let's get you some help.
Come on.
Spike? We need those explosives.
I'm on it.
You good? Yeah.
Team Four, this is Scarlatti.
Tell me what you got.
Hey, hey, I need your help.
I'm Daniel Butler.
I'm the one who called in the 911.
You the guy that tossed the rifle out the window? Yeah.
I'm looking for my brother Trent.
He's 17, he's wearing a blue jacket.
He's got to be in here somewhere.
Okay.
Guys, I got someone you're gonna want to meet.
Hey, Medic! I'll wait my turn, thanks.
Status? One subject down, one injured.
And we've got seven.
That leaves three unaccounted for.
And one of them's Victor Ackland.
Sam, let's get Danny Butler out here.
Sidney, we get anything else on Mr.
Ackland? Nothing.
No e-mail address, no phone records, no trail.
Our guy's unplugged.
I got you one thing, though.
Victor was in military training at Petawawa, '86 to '90, but he never made it into the field on account of his BCD.
What's that? Big Chicken Dinner.
Also known as Bad Conduct Discharge.
A failed soldier.
Yeah.
This guy can go with the others.
This is Danny.
You can uncuff him, Sam.
Hey, Danny.
Thanks for doing the right thing today, son.
My team's gonna need you.
Guys? I found some kind of war room.
There's maps.
Got points of interest.
Jewish Community Center, Chinese market, immigration center.
Multicultural gathering spots.
The targets they were planning on hitting today.
Well, they still may be.
We've got three subjects unaccounted for.
Danny, you come with me.
Spike, see what else you can find.
How's he doing? He's fine.
He's lucky.
Julianna.
Steve Morgan.
No way.
Uh, he needs to get stitched at the hospital.
No, no, just patch it up.
I'll get it done later.
Boss.
Just don't want you to risk infection.
It'll be fine for a few hours.
Let me get you a painkiller.
No, no, no, no, no.
I got to keep the mind sharp.
You haven't changed.
Neither have you.
I'll be right back.
I'm just gonna grab some stuff.
We should-- we should catch up.
Yeah.
Yeah, later.
Yeah.
He's not here.
Who? Trent, his brother.
What about these guys? Is anybody here missing? Victor-- and Jeff Watts.
He's Victor's right hand.
Think they're together? They were the last time I saw them.
Okay, good, good.
Get these guys on the bus.
Wordy, what about the uniforms on perimeter, they get anything? The property's too big.
There were gaps in the cordon.
They could have got out.
Okay.
All right, thanks, guys.
Sidney, I need you to look for vehicle registration for Victor Ackland, Jeff Watts and Trent Butler.
Put out APB's.
Copy.
Think I found what we're looking for.
We got nitroglycerin, sulfuric acid, sodium trichlorate, ammonia, gasoline, silver nitrate, nitrobenzol.
With the chemicals down here, they could have built the mother of all bombs.
Instead, they built a bunch of smaller ones.
Portable, easy to hide.
But capable of causing damage? A hell of a lot of damage.
The good news is I got plans for ten bombs so I can find out how they work.
Bad news? Three of them are missing.
Sidney, we've got three subjects carrying explosives.
Contact all divisions.
Threat level is red.
Copy.
I'm uploading a list of possible targets.
Sidney, we need uniforms, checkpoints, dogs and scanners at all locations.
That's a lot of ground to cover.
You'll be fine, Sidney.
Just reach out to our friends in Peel and Durham, and just get those photos out.
Copy, boss.
All right, Spike, what have you got? These bombs-- they're not meant to take out buildings.
They're meant to take out people.
It's loaded with shrapnel-- nails.
Okay, what's the radius? You don't want to be within a hundred feet when it blows.
Trigger? Timers.
They're hooked up to special frequency clocks-- T.
A.
I.
They're all going to blow at the same time.
The problem is, we don't know what time.
And worse, they've all got impact-sensitive override.
Somebody drops one, it blows.
That doesn't add up.
Right-wing extremists like to park a bomb underneath a government building and walk away.
They don't like to target civilians with shrapnel.
Ackland's sending a message and causing carnage.
The new face of terror.
Hey.
You're worried about your brother? Yeah.
I'm gonna be straight-- I don't get you yet.
But at 12:45 today, you made a call-- you did the right thing.
I didn't know.
You ready to take a ride with us? You ready to talk? Okay, come on.
Let's go.
There's a sad day when you can't trust the people closest to you.
You boys aren't just soldiers to me.
You're family.
A family that chose each other.
That runs even deeper than blood.
Trent, if you know who tipped off the cops, you need to tell me.
You need to tell me, Trent.
I think it was Danny.
That can't have been easy for you.
He called 911 just before the raid.
Hey! I'm sorry.
Well, your brother's choices aren't your fault.
That's a long list of targets, Danny.
We need to know more about Victor's plan today.
I was going to be a lookout.
He didn't tell me the targets.
Everything was need-to-know.
You're a part of this group.
No.
I mean, I was, but it was all just talk before today.
All right, look, I used to think We grew up north of the city.
Nice house.
My dad bought it from his dad when he retired.
My dad lost his job.
He got let go 'cause all of a sudden there's a bunch of people that'll work for a lot less.
Immigrants, Danny.
We lost the house.
He was depressed.
He starts drinking.
And he makes sure that we know who's to blame when there's no money for Christmas, food.
Then one day Trent and I come home, and-and we find him.
He took the easy way out.
We're on our own.
Your mom? She died when Trent was born.
I had to get him out.
He didn't want to go, but I swore to him I was going to look out for him.
I was going to get a job and I was going to take care of him.
And I was going to fight back.
God, I remember when I first saw Danny.
He was so angry, and lost.
But I saw something, saw something in him.
Pride, fire.
I had hopes.
Every time you'd see him, you were happy to see him 'cause he'd listen.
And Trent and I weren't alone anymore.
Victor worked security at the old factory.
He had the run of the place.
He's a military guy.
And on the weekends he'd drill us.
Teach us survival skills, stuff like that, just for fun.
I was wrong.
I thought I knew him.
It's not him, it's his girlfriend.
Is that the one who called before? Yeah, it's since he met her.
He's not the same guy.
Kelly changed everything.
You got to meet her.
She's just-- she's a force of nature.
I met her at work.
at the hotel.
I tried keeping my distance, but after a couple weeks, nothing I believed made sense anymore.
Nice monkey suit.
Hey, what are you doing here? What do you mean? It's Friday.
Yeah, right.
Right, Friday.
Uh, can you cover for me? Hey, you must be Trent.
Yeah.
The famous invisible brother.
It's so nice to finally meet you.
Who's this? It's just someone I work with.
Danny.
What's going on? So this is Kelly.
Yeah.
Hi.
Danny, what the hell? I was going to tell you.
When? When I thought the time was right.
How could you? Look, it's my business, all right? Well, why'd you lie to me? I didn't lie to you.
You've got your pride when it suits you, but this whole time you're running around with that.
She is not a that! What are you doing? I don't know.
You're deserting me.
I would never Hey, I would never desert you.
So, Trent, you ever meet this Kelly? Trent.
No.
How come you stayed in the group? She wouldn't see me after that.
Going up on these weekends was the only way to look out for him.
Trent ever mention Kelly's color to Victor? No.
I guess I still have a brother, you know? All right, let's go.
You know who's left here? Just the three of us.
Just Jeff and me and you.
It's down to us, and that's what it's all about, right? Right.
Hey do you want to know what the best thing that happened to me was? It's when your brother brought you to me.
I saved your briefing for last.
You ready? Yes.
You want to know what's in the backpacks? Yes.
Boss, we've got an I.
D.
on Jeff and Trent entering Hancock Square carrying backpacks.
They could be headed to the Department of Citizenship and Immigration.
It's a target What about Victor Ackland? We got unis at all the targets, but still no sign of him.
Okay, radio ahead, let 'em know we're on our way, but do not engage the subjects.
You got it.
Sidney, alert all units: Victor Ackland is now traveling alone and in possible possession of a third bomb.
We're still looking for backpacks.
Keep the pressure up.
Copy, boss.
You good? Yeah.
Yeah? Yeah.
My man.
You're solo from here.
But when we're done, we'll meet at the Fox and Crown, have a beer and watch it on the news.
Time it right, you'll be fine.
It's a lot people.
It's like Victor said: "If the pilot of the Enola Gay thought like that, we'd be speaking Japanese right now.
" Don't worry.
You wait, you watch the time, and you put it down nice and slow, and you make sure you're far away by 3:00.
But remember, if something goes wrong, that package has to go off.
That's the deal.
Victor's orders.
A soldier doesn't leave his post, right? Right.
Don't let us down.
We've got one shot at this.
I know.
See you at the Fox and Crown.
I have my officers searching the building.
No sign of your suspects.
CCTV? Limited only to the common areas.
Okay, thanks, Sergeant.
Let's clear this area.
Right away.
Spike, we're gonna Command Post here.
Copy.
This building has 15 floors.
The Department of Immigration takes up the first floor and the lower plaza.
If they're after civilians, then he's gonna be targeting the open immigration areas.
Wordy and I'll take Passports.
Jules, Sam, take Immigration and Appeals.
Let's go.
Remember, subjects and backpacks.
Danny, you're with us.
It's Jeff! He's on his way out! Visual on Jeff.
He's in the lobby.
Stay back.
Stay down.
The trigger's impact-sensitive.
We can't let it drop.
Sleeper hold.
What about the backpack? I'll grab it.
Your arm.
I got it, Spike.
Did you get the bag? Sarge? Sergeant?! Sergeant, cuff him.
Get him out of here.
Get everybody out of here! Get 'em out! Get everybody out! That's you, too, boss.
Copy that.
Package disabled.
One down.
We have a visual on Trent.
Trent?! I've got a bomb! Okay, everybody stay calm! The police are here! Just move to the exit! Sam? I speak soldier.
I got it.
We got your back, Sam.
Trent, my name is Sam Braddock.
Let's talk, okay? Don't come any closer! I'm backing up, all right? I'm backing away.
All right, I'm backing away.
Go, go, get out of here.
That boy's scared.
You're checking the clock, Trent.
Is there something I should know about? Spike, do you have Jeff's device? I'm looking right at it.
This bomb was set to go at 3:00 p.
m.
They're using frequency clocks, synched up, so I'm guessing that's when they're all set to go.
Maybe 3:00's a symbolic time.
Well, we got 12 minutes.
What if I take down the subject and he drops it? Then the impact overrides the timer, and it blows sooner.
Good to know.
How about electronic countermeasures? Yeah, maybe with an EMP.
But there's no way I can get one here in time.
The only way to disable these guys is up close, old-school pliers and cutters.
Looks like we're talking him down.
Down to two bombs and a 3:00 p.
m.
deadline.
We need to find Victor.
I don't know, I don't know.
Does he carry a cell phone? Victor took my phone earlier.
He might still have it.
Type the number here.
Okay.
And we got a signal, narrowing it down Simcoe and Front.
Four blocks from here.
All right, notify all units in that area.
We will not lose him.
Wordy, Ed you copy that? That's the Sussex Arms.
On our way.
Look, Trent, you're just following orders.
I get that, okay? You delivered the bomb to this location.
You've done your job.
My orders are to make sure it goes off.
Then let's walk away and make that happen.
You leave the bag there, you've done your duty.
You'll disable it.
Trent, do you want to die? A soldier never leaves his post.
Okay, Trent, I think I know why we're here; why you want to do this.
Can I ask you a question? Can you tell me about what happened to your dad? Spike, we're approaching the hotel.
Victor's signal's coming from the second floor conference area.
Copy that.
Spike, we're here.
Can you narrow it down? Left of your location.
It's gotta be through here.
Police! Police! SRU! SRU! Police! Stop! Right there! Hands in the air! And down on your knees slowly.
Don't move a muscle.
Positive for explosives.
Okay, not a muscle.
Not a muscle.
Don't even breathe.
There's nothing in here.
Where's the bomb, Victor? I don't know.
Ask Kelly.
Victor may have given the bomb to Kelly.
He-he doesn't-doesn't even know her.
He tracked her down at work, at the hotel.
How does he know her? Just stay calm.
I gotta get out of here! I gotta go help her! Danny, hey, hey, calm down! My team will find her.
My team will keep her safe, okay? Trent's still at risk.
We need you here.
I can't.
Remember what you said? "I will never desert you.
" Come on, buddy.
We gotta make sure he knows that, all right? Good man.
Jules? We're making progress, boss.
Sam's got an angle.
Your dad apologized? "I'm so ashamed.
" That was the last thing he said to me.
He quit on us! He's not a fighter like you, right? How did you convince Kelly to take the bomb, Victor? I didn't convince Kelly to take a bomb.
She doesn't know what she's carrying.
What's her target? What's her target, Victor? Her target is the enemy.
You're a real brave man.
Sending other people to die.
She was expendable.
What, like Trent? Easy to send kids, right? Where is she, Victor? Where is she?! See what blows at 3:00 p.
m.
Don't let him out of your sight.
Let's go.
If it's antipersonnel, it's not about a symbolic building or property damage.
It's about the people-- the enemy.
He said see what blows at 3:00.
Danny, 3:00 p.
m.
today.
If Victor's trying to send a message, there's got to be a reason for the time and the target.
He-he said that today was the beginning.
It's about taking our country back.
It's Citizenship Day.
Citizenship Day? Victor said we're gonna celebrate it our way.
Citizenship ceremonies held across the country.
Here-- 85 new citizens take the oath.
Open to the public.
3:00 p.
m.
Ed, kick it up.
You're close.
Sidney, send out uniforms three-block radius.
Soak the area-- 1587 Adelaide.
Copy.
Jules, you're running low on time.
We got to get that boy out of there.
I'm watching, boss.
Trent, your dad made his choice.
No, they made him do it.
Who did? That scared little boy that was here before? He did that to your dad? You know who hasn't quit on you? Your brother.
No, he and I are done.
He made his choice.
How old was Trent when he found your dad? I came in the room, Trent was already there.
Dad was hanging.
Trent was screaming.
Not crying-- screaming at Dad.
Angry.
I had to pull him off.
Hey, Sam, Trent was angry at his dad for abandoning him.
Then when Danny met Kelly, Trent thought he was leaving him, too.
So he's clinging to Victor, 'cause that's all the family he thinks he has left.
Trent needs to know he's not alone.
I'm going to bring Danny down.
Let him see him.
Let him know he's there.
No, I got this, boss.
We're on the edge here, Sam.
If we can't get through, you got to get out of there.
Copy that.
Uniforms got a sighting south on York between Richmond and Adelaide.
Subjects in range.
Kelly, don't move.
We need to vacate this area immediately, please! You, back over there! Everybody back! Clear this area! All the way back, please! I need you to stay very still Get back! Kelly, okay? Very still.
Less than two minutes, Sam.
Trent, let me spell this out for you.
The mission is over.
There's no enemy personnel to take out.
There's no message to the world.
If that bomb goes off, you'll be sacrificing yourself for nothing! Okay, Kelly, we're going to come a little closer here.
I need that bag.
Wha-what's going on? I don't understand.
It's okay.
I'm going to take you to see Danny as soon as I can, but first I need to take that bag.
You understand what that means, right? Where you going? Trent, to die for nothing? Sam, get out of range.
Trent! Get out of here! Not without you.
Your brother's been here the whole time.
Even with Kelly in danger.
What happened to Kelly? Stand back! Please, for your security I need you to stand all the way back! Your C.
O.
Victor-- he doesn't share the same sense of duty you do.
He gave her the bomb to deliver.
Sam, you're too close, you're too close.
Just like he gave it to you.
Too close, Sam.
He's willing to sacrifice your life for his cause, but not his own.
One minute left, guys.
Okay, okay.
Everything's under control here.
You're safe.
I'm going to tell you the truth here, Kelly.
There's an explosive in that bag, so just very calmly hand it to me.
Thank you, Kelly.
What?! Come with me, please.
But Danny texted me.
I thought it was a present.
He left you to die, Trent.
But your brother-- he's right here.
He's not going anywhere.
And he told me he made you a promise.
I'm staying right here.
Spike, talk to me.
Ed, there's just one wire you got to cut.
It's really simple, man.
Yellow with red, cut by the battery.
Come on, come on Boss, we got to fall back.
Moving out, now, now.
All right, you're done, Sam.
Trent! We're out of time.
I'm staying with you! Come on, Sam! Sam, you got to get out Trent! Sam, you did everything you could.
You pull back now! Now, Sam! Ten seconds.
Sam Your brother needs you, too.
Sam! Seven! Come on, Trent.
Six! Sam! Five! Four! Now, let's go, come on.
Three two If I lost the fight Would you take me inside? Would you hold on through? Make it all feel like new? Will you be there for me? Will you be there? Will you hold on tight? Will you make it all right? Will you be there for me? What is this? Go home.
We wanted to see the stitches.
Make sure you went to the hospital.
Well, I appreciate the concern, but I'm gonna keep my shirt on.
Look, we're all going to go grab a drink at the Goose.
You coming? Aw, I got Yeah, sure.
Of course you are, 'cause you're buying.
What?! Rules, boss.
You get shot, you buy the first round.
Yeah, Wordy should know.
Hey, uh, Julianna.
Oh, hey.
Hey.
