Without a Trace s04e01 Episode Script

Showdown

Previously on Without a Trace: You said during the surgery my heart would be stopped.
You don't want it beating when I'm trying to cut.
So for that hour, I'll be dead.
Paige Hobson.
Stranger shows up to her office and she disappears.
- You are? - Emil Dornvald.
- Security attaché for General Gamba.
- What's your interest in Paige? Our counterintelligence has identified her as having close ties to Adisa Teno.
Teno's part of a terrorist group, the MLF that may be plotting an attempt on General Gamba's life.
You told me the money was for opposition candidates, for relief supplies.
Sending rice is not the solution.
- FBI.
- Get down, get down, get down.
Freeze.
FBI, put your hands in the air.
I just sent you something.
Adisa is under arrest.
I want names, faces, locations of the other MLF members.
- I just made Paige Hobson.
- She got a gun.
Paige, drop the gun.
Drop it.
You don't seem like the type.
I'm not.
Adisa says there's a moment that makes people take action.
I guess that was my moment.
- Taylor.
- Hey.
It's me.
I'm at the hospital.
Viv's okay.
She made it through.
I just thought you would like to know.
Thanks a lot for the call.
Bye.
Come on, man, let's go.
It's a green light.
Get down! Get down! Stay down! Stay down! Hang on.
Back, back, back.
Easy, easy, easy.
Martin.
Martin? GSW to the chest and stomach.
- He get hit anywhere else? - I don't know.
- How long's he been unconscious? - His breathing's labored.
Let's scoop and run.
We'll take him.
- Where? - To Saint Luke's.
No, no.
Take him to Saint Vincent's.
They have a Level I Trauma Center.
I want notification.
Will do.
We got it from here.
Okay, sir? We got it.
Get me that board.
Come here, come here.
Danny, come on, come on.
Let them do their job.
You have his head? - You're sure it was Dornvald? - And that guy.
Dornvald took off in a blue van.
I got his plates.
Jack, my gun, it got jammed.
I took a shot but We're gonna go kill that son of a bitch.
Know what? You need medical attention.
You wanna help me? Go with Martin.
Go get cleared by a doctor, then work on the case.
One, two, three.
Come on, come on.
All right, we're locked.
Hold still.
Relax, relax, relax.
It'll be all right.
Take a walk.
- We need to take this man - Take a walk.
- What is your problem? - Where's Dornvald? Where's Dornvald? Where is he? Valhalla.
Valhalla? What does Valhalla mean? What does it mean? - That's enough.
I'm taking this guy now.
- He's all yours.
Jack? How bad is it? Danny's okay but Martin's bad.
He's on his way to the hospital, they're doing everything.
I need you to focus.
I need help with Dornvald.
- Sam? - Yeah.
- I need help.
- Okay, what can I do? Put an alert at all the train stations and airports.
I think this guy's gonna try and skip the country.
I'll put out stop notices and make sure the TV stations have his picture.
Do a check on Dornvald.
Find out all you can.
Run the ID check on the shooters.
See if "Valhalla" comes up anywhere.
- Why Valhalla? - It's where the shooter said he might go.
You also need to get Paige Hobson into FBI custody.
- She could be a possible target.
- Okay.
Below 70.
Sir, sir, can you hold still, please? You banged your head hard, we may need to keep you.
- Why? - Possible head trauma.
I'm gonna order up a CT scan.
I'll be back in a sec.
Where are you taking him? Got him stable enough to send him to surgery.
- How long is he gonna be in there? - Could be a while.
One of the bullets came close to an artery.
Another nicked the small intestine.
It's not good.
Now, please.
Taylor.
Danny, hey.
How is he? He He just went into surgery, Sam.
And? You know these doctors, you can never get a straight answer out of them.
But they seem positive.
Okay.
Any news on your end? Yeah.
We ID'd the shooter.
He's from Special Forces.
Worked as a mercenary in Chad with Dornvald.
- Is he talking? - He never made it to the hospital.
All right, where's Jack? Makeban Consulate.
I am Isaiah Nuru, consul general, and I wish to make a brief statement.
It is now clear that the assassination of General Gamba was part of a plot to destabilize Makeba.
For within hours of his death, rebels staged an uprising Back off Shaquille.
By government forces.
It was, of course, the outlawed MLF that was behind this failed coup.
The people of Makeba mourn the loss of our beloved general.
But with our sorrow comes determination to bring all those responsible for his murder to justice.
- Thank you.
- Sir.
Sir.
Sir.
- Sir, excuse me.
- Was it the work of the Makeba Libera? Special Agent Jack Malone, FBI.
How special can you be? As I understand it, the FBI failed to prevent the general's murder.
That's absolutely true.
But it appears that you got even.
Please explain that remark.
Adisa Teno was behind General Gamba's assassination, now he's dead.
- Adisa Teno is dead? - Emil Dornvald was the shooter.
- Where is he? - I have no idea.
He's the head of General Gamba's security and you have no idea? - When was the last time you saw him? - This afternoon.
But by the time he arrived, it was far too late.
How did this happen? A girl shot him.
A girl.
Paige Hobson.
- You know her? - She did it for Adisa Teno.
You knew this and didn't stop her? - I didn't think she was a threat, sir.
- Well done.
Now the leader of our country is dead because of you.
Adisa Teno will pay.
I cannot even look at you.
He called me moments later, insisting he could kill Teno.
I made it clear he was to do no such thing.
I then told him never to return.
That his employment here was terminated.
So what? He just decided to kill Teno by himself? Perhaps it was a misguided effort to get back in my good graces.
Yeah, well, he certainly went the extra mile, didn't he? Make no mistake, the Makeban government strongly condemns his actions.
Well, before the Makeban government was strongly condemning his actions where were you putting him up? - At the Carson Hotel.
That's pretty fancy digs for a killer.
Mr.
Dornvald was acting alone.
You better hope he was.
Or I guarantee you're gonna see me again.
What's going on? Why did you guys bring me back here? We need to ask you a few more questions.
I confessed.
I shot Gamba.
What else is there to say? What did Adisa tell you about Emil Dornvald? Just that he was dangerous.
And he is.
He killed my friend Julia for no reason, except to get back at me.
Did he tell you where Dornvald came from? Where he lived? - Why are you asking this? - Did the word "Valhalla" ever come up? No.
What is this about? Adisa's dead.
What? But I just saw him.
He's in your custody.
He was being transferred.
There was an ambush.
Dornvald? - We're trying to find him, Paige.
- Well, I I don't know anything more than what I've told you.
I wish I did.
I want you to keep thinking about it, okay? Maybe something else will come to you.
Did Adisa suffer? No.
I'm very sorry for your loss, Paige.
Director Fitzgerald.
Special Agent Samantha Spade.
Of course, Martin told us about you.
I flew in from D.
C.
As soon as I heard.
Any word from the hospital? He's still in surgery.
His mother is there monitoring things.
I felt that this is where I could be most effective.
Right.
I understand.
Can she shed any light on this Dornvald individual? Not yet, but we are working every angle.
- I assure you, sir, we will find him.
- Where is Agent Malone? - He's out.
I can contact him - No.
I'll track him down myself.
Agent Malone, I'm Owen with Guest Services.
I'm told you have questions? Yeah, when was the last time Mr.
Dornvald was here? He's been a guest for two months, I haven't seen him in a week.
- Would you mind closing that? - You know him well? I handle all our long-term guests.
Knowing them is my job.
- So where's he been for the last week? - I couldn't say.
Thought your job was knowing your guests? He have a girlfriend? You're asking me details that I'm not at liberty to discuss.
Stop jerking me around.
The man's a terrorist and a killer.
Now what do you know? He approached me a few weeks ago.
I found it quite awkward.
Mr.
Dornvald.
And how are you finding New York? Lonely, I'm afraid.
- Very lonely indeed.
- Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
Is there anything I can do? You're a man of the world, Owen.
Where might one turn for a little female companionship? Well, I can recommend some very hot clubs in the area.
I had in mind something a bit more private.
Money's no object.
I see.
Sir, I don't think I can really help you with that.
She should be beautiful.
And she must be black.
Let me see what I can do.
So I set him up.
I think he's been seeing her ever since.
This her? No, I don't know who that is.
What's the hooker's name? Lila.
Lila what? Lila Green.
- Jack.
- Hey.
You done with the hospital? Doctor checked me out.
Said I'm good to go.
You're good to go? - That was quick.
- Yeah.
Where we going? Looking for a hooker.
Makes sense, him hooking up with this girl.
Gives him a safe house if something goes bad.
Tech just sent me Lila's DMV photo.
- Looks expensive.
- Yeah.
Easy, tiger.
- Clear.
- Clear.
Not a hundred percent sure, but it looks like she had her neck snapped.
Jack, just spoke to the doorman, her name is Melanie Marsden.
She's Lila's roommate, just got back from Europe.
Doorman said he let her in around 10.
A guy matching Dornvald's description walked out later, carrying a big metal suitcase.
That would place him here just before the ambush.
She must have walked in while he was prepping for the hit.
What's going on here? Who the hell are you? - FBI.
- FBI.
Melanie? - Melanie? No, Melanie! - Come on.
No! No! No! - No.
No.
No.
Oh, my God! - Come on, come on, it's gonna be okay.
Who would do something like this? Do you know this guy? Yes, his name is Edward Drake.
Did you ever tell him that you had a roommate? There was no reason to.
She wasn't due back for another month.
We had a house rule: No clients allowed.
But the money was right and with Mel out of town Did you ever see Mr.
Drake with a metal suitcase? Yeah, he left it here.
Said he didn't wanna leave it at the hotel.
What else can you tell me about him? He didn't talk much about himself.
He said he was in the military.
You spent over a week with this guy doing God-knows-what.
Surely he told you more than that.
Just once.
Do you ever think about quitting? I don't mind the work.
You're still young.
And what are you? An old man? For a soldier.
I enlisted at 17.
It's the only life I've ever known.
I used to imagine I was protected by invisible armor bullets couldn't penetrate.
All the things I saw and did would roll off me like rain on glass.
I know better now.
Sounds like maybe you should quit.
I've wanted to.
For years.
I even found a place to settle down.
So why are you here? My nest egg isn't what it needs to be.
But my fee from this job will take care of all that.
So this job he was talking about, did he ever mention anybody named Adisa? He didn't tell me.
He talk about Valhalla? So you have no idea where he wants to settle down? Nothing? He just said it was someplace that he worked a couple of years ago.
In the past two years Dornvald's worked as a mercenary in nine different countries.
- Any reference to Valhalla come up? - I checked the word's origin.
It's from Norse mythology.
It means "heaven for warriors.
" I have a feeling this guy's not going to heaven.
Dornvald's looking to retire after one last job.
This photo would suggest that he might look for somewhere coastal.
Well, that rules out Afghanistan, Paraguay, Bolivia.
- Iraq's out of the picture.
- What about Burma? He was a military advisor there in 2004.
Says here he went to Thailand twice last year on a tourist visa.
Let's check out Southeast Asia.
Jack? Deputy Director Fitzgerald wants to see you.
Okay.
Check all flights to the region in the last six hours.
- He probably paid cash.
- Okay.
Got a flight.
JFK to Bangkok.
Booked five hours ago by an Edward Drake.
Edward Drake.
That's the name that Dornvald gave Lila Green.
Come on in, Jack.
Alex Olczyk was good enough to find some room for me here.
Victor, I'm really sorry about Martin.
We're doing everything we can.
I want you to know I'm taking an active role in this investigation.
Yes, I would do the same.
This is Ted Banes from Homeland Security.
Ted wants to have a few words with you.
I thought I'd sit in.
Seems fair.
First of all, let me say that, our prayers are with you guys.
It's a terrible thing whenever an agent gets hurt trying to do his job.
Why do I feel like there's a "but" coming.
But I don't think anything is gained by harassing Mr.
Nuru.
Makeba is an ally in the war on terror.
A friend.
We should raise our standards.
Let's agree, we all want Dornvald.
Point is, odds of getting him are better if the Makebans are on our side.
You just said they are on our side.
You just said they're our friends.
They've expressed an interest in Paige Hobson.
In what sense? They feel she should stand trial for General Gamba's murder in Makeba.
They have a case.
She did kill him on African soil.
And in exchange for Paige Nuru's offered you what? To help find Dornvald? Is that it? - What, and you support this? - I think it's worth exploring.
Paige Hobson is a U.
S.
Citizen.
You extradite her to Makeba and her trial will consist of being tied to a post and shot.
We'll take that into consideration.
That'll be all.
Get as much information as you can on Isaiah Nuru.
Put him under surveillance.
- Think he knows where Dornvald is? - He's in it.
We think Dornvald booked a ticket to Bangkok right before he ambushed us.
- His plane left, he wasn't on it.
- You sure? He used an alias so he wasn't on the manifest.
We called the aircraft, they did a passenger inventory.
Something must've happened to make him change his plans.
All right, thanks.
N.
Y.
P.
D.
Just got a report of shots fired on Avenue C.
There was a blue van involved.
Let's go.
Found the van here.
Looks like he ditched it.
- Any casualties on Avenue C? - Just gunfire.
If there were bodies, I would've heard.
Come take a look at this.
This is definitely Dornvald's van.
Obviously, somebody else is after this guy.
Look at these bullet holes.
Looks like somebody got a piece of him.
You got a picture of the perp? Me and every cop in the city.
When did the call come in for Avenue C? About 20 minutes ago.
That gives him a pretty decent head start.
Send officers to all local hospitals.
Set up checkpoints about 10 blocks out.
All right.
You got it.
What's the nearest hospital to here? St.
Andrew's, right? About 20 blocks? There's a medical clinic a couple blocks away from here.
Excuse me, we're the FBI.
You seen this man? - I don't think so.
- Hey, do you know where Dr.
Klein is? Her patients are really stacking up and she's not answering her pages.
- Who's the doctor you're looking for? - Dr.
Klein.
I haven't seen her in, like, 20 minutes.
- What does Dr.
Klein look like? - Blond, cute, about 30.
- Checked the kitchen, stairwell? - Checked everywhere.
It's just not like her.
- What about this one? - Well, no.
When the light's on you can't go barging in.
- Get everybody out of here.
- What's this about? Do what I tell you.
Go.
It's clear.
Get out.
Hey.
- Let's go, let's go.
- Get them out of here.
- Mama.
- Please.
Come on, hurry.
Jesus.
What are you doing? Let go.
Let go.
Dornvald, come out.
You can't go anywhere.
Send the doctor out.
- He ran out.
- You okay? - Take it easy.
- Call Dispatch.
Get all units here.
Try not to shoot anyone.
Can you handle that? Look, I overreacted, I'm sorry.
- Okay, I know - I want you out of here.
- Jack, I said I'm sorry.
- You could have killed that doctor.
I want you to go back to the office until I call.
Just go.
How you feeling? Like I could use a Scotch.
Can you tell me what happened? I had just finished with a patient.
I never even saw him coming.
You make sure you take the pills for the full seven days.
- And call me next week, okay? - Thanks, doctor.
I have a gun so do exactly as I say.
Look, we don't keep drugs here.
I don't need drugs, I need medical treatment.
- Where can we go that's private? - Here.
Try not to be afraid.
That's kind of asking a lot, don't you think? Is that a gunshot wound? You have to go to a hospital.
We can't handle that here.
You have antiseptic, forceps, stitching material? Then that's everything you need.
But I can't, I mean, I've never done this before.
There's a first time for everything.
While you were patching him up did he say what he was gonna do, where he was gonna go? Not to me but he got a call.
Hello? How am I? Well, an odd thing happened when I tried to collect my fee.
A misunderstanding, huh? I went to the rendezvous, your men tried to shoot me.
- No needles.
- This is just a local anesthetic.
- You wanna be numbed up.
- For all I know, that's a sedative.
- Do the procedure without it.
- Okay.
No, no, you listen.
You offered me double to make him pay.
I spilled more blood than I cared to to keep my side of the bargain.
I want my money, sir.
One way or another you will give it to me.
I'll be in touch.
He never said the caller's name so I don't know who he was talking to.
- What's up? Do we know who she is? - Working on it, but we ID'd the boat.
It's built by McCusker Yachts of New Zealand.
Get them on the phone.
Narrow down who owns it, and where it is.
- I'll keep you posted.
- Thanks.
Yeah, hi, this is Special Agent Spade again.
Yeah, no, I've already left messages.
I really need to talk to Dr.
Rugio.
What does that mean that he's still in surgery? Why is it taking so? Why won't anyone tell me what the hell is going on here? Yeah.
Okay, thanks.
Hey, I thought I thought you were with Jack.
Yeah, he wanted me to come in here and help you out.
Great.
Sam.
Sam? He's gonna be all right.
He's been in surgery for over five hours.
No one will tell me what's going on.
I just You know what? I just need a minute.
- I just - Okay.
Me again.
Got business at the U.
N? What brings you here, Agent Malone? Expecting trouble? - The work of our new security chief.
- Think they can protect you against your old security chief? - I don't know what you mean.
I think you do.
You didn't fire Dornvald.
In fact you promised to pay him double if he killed Adisa Teno.
- That's absurd.
And when he went to collect you tried to have him killed to cover up your tracks.
Which explains why you hired the New York Giants defensive line.
This is an emotional time.
Your agent was wounded.
But in truth, there is only one man responsible.
If Dornvald doesn't get you I will.
It begins and ends with Dornvald, Agent Malone.
If this isn't clear to you now it soon will be.
What's that supposed to mean? You will get justice and so will we.
Hey.
Hey! You need to stop right there.
You have no authority to take this woman.
Actually, I do.
She waived extradition.
Paige, you You agreed to this? I want Dornvald for what he did.
This is the way to get him.
- Paige, don't do this.
- I think we're done here.
- What do you want? - Paige Hobson.
You can't have her.
I accepted Nuru's offer.
That's gonna get her killed.
I wish you had felt the same concern for my son.
There's no way I intentionally put your son in harm's way.
Why no SWAT escort? Why wasn't Martin wearing a vest? Because I didn't think my agents would be ambushed.
- This happened on your watch.
- I'm doing everything I can.
- I don't see results.
- A deal with Nuru isn't gonna fix it.
- I want Dornvald.
- He's just the triggerman.
- I've been assured he acted alone.
With all due respect, you're being sold a bill of goods.
Nuru ordered the hit.
There is no way that they're giving us Dornvald.
Not unless they deliver him dead.
That is a possibility.
We gotta get to Dornvald before Nuru.
How is Nuru gonna find Dornvald if we can't? He's gonna use money to lure him.
- Dornvald won't go for that.
- He wants the money.
He's got a plan.
When Dornvald gets backed into a corner, he targets people's loved ones.
- Like Paige, when he killed her friend.
- Does Nuru have any family in the U.
S? - I'll check.
- All right, thanks.
I found Valhalla.
The boat company made 58 of these.
Three of them are based in Thailand.
One of them is named Valhalla.
- Great.
- Nuru's got a son, William.
In Boston, attending MIT.
And we got a phone number.
- Hello? - Yeah, this is Special Agent Spade.
I'm with the FBI.
Could I speak to William Nuru, please? - No.
He's not here.
- Do you know where he is? He left for New York to see his dad.
- Did he drive? - No, I dropped him at the bus station.
Which bus? I don't know, but he should be getting into New York about now.
Does anyone else know he took this trip? Just you and the other guy who called.
Which other guy? Some security dude from the consulate.
Come on.
All right.
Okay, thanks a lot.
- Bus got here early.
- Seal the building.
- What gate did the bus come in? - Three-oh-seven.
No one leaves the Port Authority without getting checked.
We're looking for Emil Dornvald and William Nuru.
Dornvald is armed and he's extremely dangerous.
You got that? Now boarding, Platform 79.
Excuse me.
Hey.
- Sorry, man.
- Jeez.
- Danny, you got anything? - Nothing yet.
- You at the bus? - Yeah.
People were still getting off when I got there.
- Want me to send some bodies? - No, I don't wanna spook him.
- I'll keep you posted.
- All right, Jack.
Attention, passengers.
All backpacks or other large bags are subject to random search by the New York City Police Department.
Thank you for your cooperation.
You're a persistent man.
- Let the kid go.
There's no way out.
- This lad is the way out.
- Please don't hurt me.
- Shut up.
- What do you want? - To leave.
It's never gonna happen.
And you can forget about Valhalla.
We had the Thai police seize your boat.
And your girlfriend? She's long gone, buddy.
Come on.
Come on, give it up.
Give up before the cavalry gets here and it gets complicated.
By that time I'll be gone.
This is gonna end right here and right now.
- Throw your gun on the ground.
- You throw yours.
If it's not on the ground by the count of three, I'll shoot the boy.
- Do as he asks.
- There's no way that I can give up my weapon.
- And you know I'm not bluffing.
If you want his blood on your hands, it's up to you.
One.
- Two.
- Please don't let him do this to me.
Three.
Come on.
Come on, come on.
Let's go.
Get out of here.
Go, go, go.
Just drop the gun.
Drop it.
Then what? I want Nuru.
You help me get him, I'll work something out.
I stayed in this game a bit too long.
Just drop the gun.
Drop it.
That's what you would do? No, it's not.
You're a soldier you understand.
Just drop the gun, please.
Drop it.
Was it a good shoot? There's no such thing.
Nuru's fled the country.
We could still file charges.
Get the ball rolling.
I didn't get much traction with that idea.
I was told there are bigger issues.
Whatever that means.
I want Paige Hobson.
- I'll have Ted Banes get her to you.
- Thank you.
I heard Martin's coming around.
Yeah.
His vital signs are getting better and the doctors are hopeful.
I really lost all judgment, Jack.
He's your son.
I'm gonna head for the hospital.
Maybe I'll see you there.
I'm sorry I didn't come to see you sooner.
I guess I was scared to see you like this, I think.
I want you to know that I know that I haven't been very good about being there for you.
But I'm here now.
And I'm not going anywhere until I know you're all right.
