ROSZAK: I'm wondering if
you would try something for me.
Any type of artistic expression.
Even if it's just for you.
- You gonna grab the mic?
- No, not yet.
I am working on something, though.
ROBYN: I know you've had your doubts,
but he's changed.
How was your lunch with Miles?
ROBYN: I cancelled it.
Dante's in town.
There was a point
where we almost kissed.
I cannot separate my feelings.
Every time I'm in his presence,
I just want more.
VI: So what you gonna do about it?

Merry Christmas Eve.
I don't know what's
so merry about being banned
from my kitchen on today of all days.
Come on, Auntie, after
all you've been through,
you deserve to just relax.
And since when do you like goose?
I don't.
Miles does.
Oh.
- I didn't realize he was joining us.
- No,
he's not, he's, uh,
working the holiday shift
at the hospital, so I figured
why don't I just take him
a home-cooked meal?
So that's still a thing, huh?
I'm not sure what it is, exactly.
All I know is that
I had a really hard case last week.
And when it was all done,
Miles helped me keep it together.
It's just my way of saying thank you.
A pie says "thanks."
A roasted goose says "mmm."
Especially given all the time you two
have been spending together.
Morning.
Hi, morning.
Okay, which looks better?
Do you think a bun
or down so it frames my face?
You look amazing either way, sweetheart.
Thank you, but which is better?
Okay? I have to look my best today.
Having the "meeting your
boyfriend's entire family" jitters?
It is so sweet
that Cam wants me to meet everyone,
but does it have to be at their
annual Christmas Eve party?
Ooh, yeah, that's a lot of pressure.
Ooh, I remember how anxious I was
when I met Miles' family. Yeah.
You ran background checks
on the whole family.
I needed to know who I was dealing with.
Delilah, just go be your wonderful self.
Don't even
worry about whether
they like you. No, in fact,
you're the one who needs to like them.
- Thank you, I will try.
- And don't do
anything you wouldn't normally do.
Just to please some boy.
Mom, is that a goose?
- Isn't that dad's favorite?
- (CLEARS THROAT)
Excuse me, something
something caught in my throat.
(CLEARS THROAT) Mm.
(INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT OVER P.A.)
Hey, um
I owe you, big time.
No, you don't.
You saved the life
of that U.S. attorney.
You weren't even supposed to be on duty.
You back officially after the holidays?
Not sure yet.
Still have some decisions
to make about my father.
Yeah, man, I heard about that.
- How's he doing?
- You know.
Good days, bad days.
Right now, I'm just happy to be
spending Christmas with my boys.
Yeah, I hear that.
I love my kids,
but my three miserable ex-wives
not so much. (CHUCKLES)
Okay, considering it's been a
day and a half since I repaired
her liver, she's doing rather well.
No infection, vitals are stable.
She should make a full recovery.
- When can we transport her?
- End of day, but the on-call
surgeon will have to discharge
her. I have a plane to catch.
- Christmas vacation?
- Puerto Rico.
I'm going to get drunk on coquitos
and try to forget that I saved
the life of an assassin.
You did a good thing, Doc.
She's testifying
against her father's cartel.
Helping to bring down
a lot of notorious criminals.
Merry Christmas to that.
As for you,
you'll be spending Christmas
at a federal facility
per your deal with the AUSA.
SHAW: And if you renege,
that reduced sentence
that we're gifting you becomes
a guaranteed death sentence.
Nah. I got a long life to live.
So don't worry.
I'll testify.
My taita can fend for himself.
So we can assume
you're not daddy's little girl.
No, more like daddy's
little serial killer
who still owes you a bullet.
Come on.
Don't let her get to you.
Go take a break, man, come on.

- Rob. Hey.
- Hey.
What are you doing here?
Little Christmas cheer and dinner.
Oh. Oh
Roasted goose.
You did this for me?
Your cafeteria is known for its
hate crimes against taste buds.
So, figured I'd come by
and help you out.
Yeah, but I don't think
that's why you did it.
Excuse me?
You just wanted to see how
the thermal hugs the biceps.
- Oh.
- Yeah, go ahead.
Get you a squeeze.
I don't know about these biceps.
That ego is big enough.
- (LAUGHS)
- DANTE: Robyn.
Marcus.
(INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT OVER P.A.)
Miles, this is Marcus. Marcus,
meet Miles.
- Good to meet you.
- You too.
Judging by the two way,
you're working a case, huh?
Not at liberty to say.
Nothing like a home- cooked meal, huh?
Yeah, yeah.
I should go.
Nice meeting you, Miles.
Robyn.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
Who's that guy?
He's a colleague?
- Frie Oh.
- (PAGER BEEPING)
Oh, I got an emergency.
Go. You and your biceps
are needed elsewhere. (CHUCKLES)
Hey, I really appreciate this.
Thank you.
Ta-da. What is this?
I didn't realize we were starting
our, uh, annual Christmas Eve
gift exchange early this year.
Yeah. Yeah, we are. Oh, no, no, no,
uh, don't open it.
'Cause it's not for you.
Uh, technically, it's for you,
but it's for you to give to me.
I'm sorry, what?
I got you the perfect present
to give to me.
Why would you do that?
Because, baby, you are
so talented at so many things,
but not at giving gifts.
What? That isn't true.
I give one of a kind gifts.
I mean, they're very unique.
Yeah, taco slippers,
a Lego pet cat.
Calabasas
- scented candles.
- Yeah.
I thought you were into them.
Yeah. No, no.
But I am into this.
So why don't you go on
- and give it to me.
- No, no, no.
I-I can't, I-I won't.
I've been-I've been working
on the perfect gift, okay?
- Harry, please just
- Honey.
Just trust me, okay?
All right? I promise.
The present this year is gonna make up
for all the other ones. Okay?
Okay. Fine.
You're lucky I love you.
(HUMMING A TUNE)
(RETCHING)
(GRUNTING)
Have them prep an O.R.
Right away, Doctor.
She's bleeding internally.
I need to stop it or she'll die.
Could you get these cuffs off her?
Be advised.
We're on the move to the O.R.
All right, let's go,
let's make it happen.
All right.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
Hey.
Miss, I'm sorry.
are you okay?
I'm fine.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
(GRUNTING, CRYING)
Robyn, I got to call you back.
Tell me why you're in this hospital.
- Is there a cartel connect?
- Why do you ask?
Because six men who look like
trained mercs just walked past me.
Some with sicario tattoos.
They snuck into the E.R.
We have Palma Zambada in custody.
- La Maldad?
- She made a deal
to turn state's evidence
against her father's cartel.
If the old man got word she flipped,
he'd definitely send hitters to
take her out, daughter or not.
Too many civilians to engage here.
You got to get La Maldad
out of this hospital.
Do it fast.
I wish it were that easy.
She's back in surgery.
And, Robyn, Miles is operating.
(SCREAMING, CLAMORING)
- What's going on?
- They're coming for you.
Lock down this hospital.
Do it now.
(ALARM WAILING)
Vamos.
Kill the alarm.
I need everyone's attention.
My name is Special Agent Shaw
and this is a Code Silver lockdown.
I need all non-essential
personnel and patients
to shelter in a designated safe room
- in the next wing of the hospital.
- WOMAN: Quickly
- and carefully, let's move.
- Let's move, people,
- thank you, let's go.
- Let's move!
SHAW: Come on, keep it moving, guys.
DANTE: Good news.
This hospital was retrofitted
with ballistic emergency
doors after 9/11.
One here.
One at the far end of the hall.
Soon as we get all non-essentials out,
we lock this place down.
- SHAW: Sounds like a plan.
- DANTE: Any clue
how these guys knew La Maldad was here?
- We did everything by the book.
- SHAW: Yeah,
but we didn't have time
to vet every single staff member
that came in contact with her.
Marcus, they went to the post-op ward.
I don't think they know
La Maldad is back in surgery.
- Okay, that should buy us some time.
- I'll call Harry,
see if he can hack into these cameras.
Maybe we can track 'em.
DANTE: I'm calling NYPD for backup.
Who the hell is she?
Our best chance at getting through this.
So, this entire time,
you haven't liked any of my gifts?
I liked that they came from you.
What about the pants
made of old Coke cans?
Come on, that was thoughtful.
You said you wanted to recycle more.
(PHONE RINGS)
It's Rob. Remember, she
got the matching sweater?
Rob, the old Coke can sweater
uh, you dug that, right?
No, time Harry.
I'm at Lewis Memorial.
It's being taken over by
a group of sicarios.
They're trying to kill one of their own.
I need eyes and ears.
Oh, wow. Cartel Christmas.
All right, I'll access the cameras
and I'll see what we're dealing with.
That would be the best gift ever.
(CHATTER IN SPANISH)
Shh.
You wanted to be a hero.
Huh?
But now you're just a martyr.
Where is she?
I hacked the security cameras.
Rob, they killed a guard.
Now they're searching room to room.
It's only a matter of time
before they figure out
La Maldad is over here.
NYPD is sending units,
but emergency services
are at least 35 minutes away.
I don't know if we can
hold out that long.
MEL: You won't have to.
I can be there in 15.
This is gonna be a logistical nightmare.
I'm gonna need a bigger gun.
You don't mean
Yep. Time to break out Cutie Pie.
Wow. Those boys are in trouble.
Where is she?
HARRY: Hey, Rob, a nurse is being
interrogated at gunpoint
and I think she's giving up
your location.
- Find her.
-
Yeah. Here they come.
There's two sets of ballistic emergency
doors
that can seal off this wing.
If we shut down the one at
the far end of the hall first
It'll give us a fail-safe
barrier to fall back to.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
- (DOOR BUZZES)
- (SHOUTING)
(GRUNTING)
Stop!
Think it'll hold?
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
Oh. We're about to find out.
(GUNFIRE CONTINUING)
¡Caray!
Reload. We go again.
No.
Would be a waste of ammo.
But we have to get in there.
And we will, compa. But don't you see?
Christmas came early.
Now we have some fun.
Secure all the exits.

CAM: Thank you, thank you.
Reports have varied,
but what we know for sure
is Roy Lewis Memorial Hospital
is on lockdown
and multiple gunmen are inside.
This is a fast-moving,
very fluid situation
Oh, my God.
Y-Y'all know someone there?
Yeah, that's my dad's hospital.
And my mom's visiting him.
Okay, there are no updates
on social media.
Uh, you should call them.
No, I can't. If my parents are hiding
it could give away their location.
Wait, what? Why-why would it, um
Oh, I keep telling her
that she-she just watches
too many crime shows.
- (CHUCKLES)
- Right.
I mean, that's quick thinking, though.
I'm sure everything's gonna
be all right. Let me
- let me go see what I can find out.
- Okay.
We're just getting word that the mayor
has issued a statement.
♪
NYPD can't move in.
They've got gunmen at every entrance.
They've surrounded the perimeter.
Which means help
is further away than we thought.
Give me a second.
What are you still doing here?
Lending a helping hand.
All right, well,
under these insane circumstances,
if there's anybody
I'd want here, it's you.
Well, looks like
we're both on call today.
I guess so.
- How'd the surgery go?
- Piece of cake.
I found the bleeder, stabilized her.
She'll be fine.
Dr. Biceps saves the day. Again.
I'm gonna get back to my patient,
but hey, be careful.
Yeah, you too.
All right, we'll continue to monitor
So, that's your ex?
That's Miles.

HARRY: Aunt Vi. What's up?
Do you have a plan to get them out?
Yeah.
Harry.
Okay, no,
but there will be, all right? I promise.
I'm working on it.
Call me the second you have an update.
You got it.
Good news.
Your mom and dad are safe.
And they're together.
- Yeah, but they can't get out?
- Not yet.
But they will.
Yeah, her parents
are being held hostage.
No, Dad, o-of course I'm not joking.
Okay, I'll call you later. Bye.
Hey. Uh
you should go.
What? No. No, I'm staying.
No, no, no, y-you've got
a big family celebration
to get to, so just go.
It'll be fine. I'll call you
when my parents get home.
Okay.
Okay.

Did Cam leave?
Uh, yeah.
- I, uh, told him he should go.
- Mm.

I'm so sorry.
I wish you could have
gotten to the party.

That's no fun.

Harry.
I got to take this.
Thank you, Miles.
- ROBYN: Hey.
- Hey, you okay?
Yeah, for now.
But these guys are relentless.
It's only a matter of time
before they blow through this door, too.
I ID'd the leader.
His name is Armando Reyes.
He's a freelance sicario.
He's got more kills than
a John Wick movie.
That's the bad news. Please
tell me there's some good.
Facial rec matched surveillance footage
from the South Brooklyn Marine Terminal
where they got a boat docked.
Which is probably
how they plan to get away.
Yeah, exactly,
so I contacted the Coast Guard.
They're seizing
Reyes' vessel as we speak.
Oh, and Rob, I think I figured out
a way for you and everyone
to get out of there.
What you got?
There's an old service hallway behind
the northeast entrance
of the surgical unit.
If you guys can break through,
you can get out.
Okay.
I'll get some guys on it. Thanks, Harry.
So, uh,
How do you and Robyn
know each other again?
We work together on occasion.
Oh, as in, you're part of her team?
No.
We got our own thing.
Huh. So do we.
For about 20 years now.
Yeah.
You're the ex-husband, right?

Yeah, the news doesn't have any updates

conspiracy theories and rumors, so

Can I get you something?
Water? Tea?
Milkshake?

Yeah, that was, uh,
that was pretty stupid.

really know what to do.

Hey, Auntie?
Hey, what are you doing?
This is all wrong.
It doesn't make any sense.
- Are you okay?
- Mm-hmm.
Are you sure?

No, I'm not.
Stop.
Hey, come on, look at me.
Come on.
We are going to get through this.
Mom has been through way worse, right?
I know that Mom will be okay.
And I know she will keep my dad safe.
Did you say your mom's been
through way worse than this?
Yeah, she was in the military.
She did a couple of tours overseas.
Oh.
I didn't know that.
It's okay.
We're going to get through this, okay?
I got you.
Come here.

Are you still there?
Can you hear me?
What's he up to, Harry?
I don't know.
The camera feeds are still off.

I'm going to give you

But if you don't hand over La Maldad,
I am afraid to inform you
that Christmas
will be canceled.

Oh, no.
- What is it?

They're dressed as Santa and his elves.
Rob, they're gonna execute them.
ARMANDO: This is so tense.
And do you know what I like
to do when I'm tense?
I like to listen to music.
Especially holiday music.
It's so perfect that we have carolers.
So let's have Santa and his merry elves

More feeling.
More passion. Come on.
It's Christmastime.
Look, we have two options.
Either we hand La Maldad over
or we leave the hostages to die.
I'm going with option three.
I'm going in.
That's my least favorite option.
It's a suicide mission.
Not if I do it.
Mel? Where are you?
I've got Cutie Pie set up on the rooftop
of the hospital's North Wing.
But the windows are tinted.
I'm using a thermal scope
but it's impossible to tell
who's a sicario and who's not.
That's okay.
Honey, look, I can be your eyes.
On your right,
the first four are carolers.
The two on the left are sicarios.
You got this.

Nice.
Babe, you're better than Rudolph.
You just saved Christmas.
He cut the feeds again. He I'm blind.
He must know we're watching.
It's all right. We're almost through
to the service hallway.
I'll meet you there.
We're in!
- Let's move.
- LA MALDAD: No.
It-it I can't move.
It hurts too much.
Come on, we're gonna wheel you out.
Something isn't right.
I feel like I'm gonna burst open again.
If we don't move you now,
you die. Let's go.
(GRUNTING)
(GROANS)
What is it?
I just checked her out,
but now she's complaining of pain
that would suggest internal bleeding,
- but not showing any other signs of it.
- Like what?
Elevated heart rate,
respiratory distress,
swelling in the area, vomiting.
Might mean there's another complication.
I don't know. It's just not adding up.
- Are you buying this?
- Not really.
Isn't La Maldad known
as the baddest sicaria
that Central America
has ever given birth to?
Yeah, once she was shot in the gut
and was on the run for two days
without medical attention.
Then she can push through
the pain when she needs to.
Uh, I'm just gonna
go check on my patient.
This isn't making sense.
Why would La Maldad lie?
Is she purposely slowing us down?
That doesn't make sense unless
She's working with the sicarios.
Marcus, this was never a kill mission.
This is a rescue.
Guys, fall back.
La Maldad is in on this.
(GRUNTING)
Miles, stay down.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
DANTE: Shaw must
have given up our position.

Keep the good doctor. I may need him.
MILES: Rob!
Go! (SHOUTING IN SPANISH)
Hey.
Rob.

ROBYN: Harry, tell me you got 'em.
I'm in the hospital's auxiliary system.
The elevator down the hall
from you just went up to the roof.
Why go there?
(SCOFFS) The helipad.
Harry, Dee's father not dying today.
You have got to do something
- about it.
- I'm on it.
They just flew off
in the hospital's medivac,
heading on a bearing of 47 degrees.
Extrapolate that heading,
where does it lead?
Lots of places, including
Port Chester Airport.
Shaw has connections
from his naval aviation days.
He'll have no problem paying off a pilot
to fly them out of the country.
How long do we have?
Well, they can't land a
helicopter on an active airfield.
I'm guessing they're gonna land
in an abandoned lot
a mile to the west of them
and then take a ride in.
I don't know, 15 minutes, tops.
If they get there before us,
Miles disappears forever.
Come on.
Let's go.
Keep moving.
¿Listo?
Sí.
Vamos.
Let him go.
Everything else is negotiable.
But today I send you back to heaven.

I am gonna cut you loose.
Yeah, right. Come on.

You sneaking up on me?
Just let him go.
Mm. That's not gonna happen.

When did you sell us out?
You mean, was this my plan
all along? No.
But everybody's got a price.
Now one of two things
are hitting the ground.
It's either your gun or his brains.
Oh, no, you got to be kidding me. No.

Thank you.
How are you?
Shouldn't I be the one asking you that?

That we're all together and safe.
Me, too.
I would have been
completely destroyed

those doors again.
I'm sorry.
None of it gets easier, huh?
It was terrifying.
I just didn't have control
over a single thing.
But you know what I decided?
I am going to embrace my fears.
You are?
That cancer scare
really changed me in ways
that I didn't even realize.
I don't want to be strong on the outside
if I don't feel it on the inside.
I'm done with forcing myself to just
have it together all the time.
To always be in control.
You just want to meet yourself
where you are,
not where you think you should be.
Exactly. I'm going to embrace

We're safe together.

give us a chance, a real chance,
I know you'll feel what I'm feeling.
Miles, we've been good

We're different people now.
Robyn, I gave up on us once before.
Worst mistake of my life,

'Cause when I'm out there

We will always be family.

all you've been through,
you deserve to just relax.
And since when do you like goose?
I don't.
Miles does.
Oh.
- I didn't realize he was joining us.
- No,
he's not, he's, uh,
working the holiday shift
at the hospital, so I figured
why don't I just take him
a home-cooked meal?
So that's still a thing, huh?
I'm not sure what it is, exactly.
All I know is that
I had a really hard case last week.
And when it was all done,
Miles helped me keep it together.

Tell me why you're in this hospital.
- Is there a cartel connect?
- Why do you ask?
Because six men who look like
trained mercs just walked past me.
Some with sicario tattoos.
They snuck into the E.R.
We have Palma Zambada in custody.
- La Maldad?
- She made a deal
to turn state's evidence
against her father's cartel.
If the old man got word she flipped,
he'd definitely send hitters to
take her out, daughter or not.
Too many civilians to engage here.
You got to get La Maldad
out of this hospital.
Do it fast.
I wish it were that easy.
She's back in surgery.
And, Robyn, Miles is operating.
(SCREAMING, CLAMORING)
- What's going on?
- They're coming for you.
Lock down this hospital.
Do it now.
(ALARM WAILING)
Vamos.
Kill the alarm.
I need everyone's attention.
My name is Special Agent Shaw
and this is a Code Silver lockdown.
I need all non-essential
personnel and patients
to shelter in a designated safe room
- in the next wing of the hospital.
- WOMAN: Quickly
- and carefully, let's move.
- Let's move, people,
- thank you, let's go.
- Let's move!
SHAW: Come on, keep it moving, guys.
DANTE: Good news.
This hospital was retrofitted
with ballistic emergency
doors after 9/11.
One here.
One at the far end of the hall.
Soon as we get all non-essentials out,
we lock this place down.
- SHAW: Sounds like a plan.
- DANTE: Any clue
how these guys knew La Maldad was here?
- We did everything by the book.
- SHAW: Yeah,
but we didn't have time
to vet every single staff member
that came in contact with her.
Marcus, they went to the post-op ward.
I don't think they know
La Maldad is back in surgery.
- Okay, that should buy us some time.
- I'll call Harry,
see if he can hack into these cameras.
Maybe we can track 'em.
DANTE: I'm calling NYPD for backup.
Who the hell is she?
Our best chance at getting through this.
So, this entire time,
you haven't liked any of my gifts?
I liked that they came from you.
What about the pants
made of old Coke cans?
Come on, that was thoughtful.
You said you wanted to recycle more.
(PHONE RINGS)
It's Rob. Remember, she
got the matching sweater?
Rob, the old Coke can sweater
uh, you dug that, right?
No, time Harry.
I'm at Lewis Memorial.
It's being taken over by
a group of sicarios.
They're trying to kill one of their own.
I need eyes and ears.
Oh, wow. Cartel Christmas.
All right, I'll access the cameras
and I'll see what we're dealing with.
That would be the best gift ever.
(CHATTER IN SPANISH)
Shh.
You wanted to be a hero.
Huh?
But now you're just a martyr.
Where is she?
I hacked the security cameras.
Rob, they killed a guard.
Now they're searching room to room.
It's only a matter of time
before they figure out
La Maldad is over here.
NYPD is sending units,
but emergency services
are at least 35 minutes away.
I don't know if we can
hold out that long.
MEL: You won't have to.
I can be there in 15.
This is gonna be a logistical nightmare.
I'm gonna need a bigger gun.
You don't mean
Yep. Time to break out Cutie Pie.
Wow. Those boys are in trouble.
Where is she?
HARRY: Hey, Rob, a nurse is being
interrogated at gunpoint
and I think she's giving up
your location.
- Find her.
-
Yeah. Here they come.
There's two sets of ballistic emergency
doors
that can seal off this wing.
If we shut down the one at
the far end of the hall first
It'll give us a fail-safe
barrier to fall back to.

It's so perfect that we have carolers.
So let's have Santa and his merry elves
sing us their swan song.
Go ahead, maestro.
Come on!
Silent night ♪
Holy night ♪
More feeling.
More passion. Come on.
It's Christmastime.
Look, we have two options.
Either we hand La Maldad over
or we leave the hostages to die.
I'm going with option three.
I'm going in.
That's my least favorite option.
It's a suicide mission.
Not if I do it.
Mel? Where are you?
I've got Cutie Pie set up on the rooftop
of the hospital's North Wing.
But the windows are tinted.
I'm using a thermal scope
but it's impossible to tell
who's a sicario and who's not.
That's okay.
Honey, look, I can be your eyes.
On your right,
the first four are carolers.
The two on the left are sicarios.
You got this.
(EXHALES SLOWLY)
(EXCLAIMING)
Nice.
Babe, you're better than Rudolph.
You just saved Christmas.
He cut the feeds again. He I'm blind.
He must know we're watching.
It's all right. We're almost through
to the service hallway.
I'll meet you there.
We're in!
- Let's move.
- LA MALDAD: No.
It-it I can't move.
It hurts too much.
Come on, we're gonna wheel you out.
Something isn't right.
I feel like I'm gonna burst open again.
If we don't move you now,
you die. Let's go.
(GRUNTING)
(GROANS)
What is it?
I just checked her out,
but now she's complaining of pain
that would suggest internal bleeding,
- but not showing any other signs of it.
- Like what?
Elevated heart rate,
respiratory distress,
swelling in the area, vomiting.
Might mean there's another complication.
I don't know. It's just not adding up.
- Are you buying this?
- Not really.
Isn't La Maldad known
as the baddest sicaria
that Central America
has ever given birth to?
Yeah, once she was shot in the gut
and was on the run for two days
without medical attention.
Then she can push through
the pain when she needs to.
Uh, I'm just gonna
go check on my patient.
This isn't making sense.
Why would La Maldad lie?
Is she purposely slowing us down?
That doesn't make sense unless
She's working with the sicarios.
Marcus, this was never a kill mission.
This is a rescue.
Guys, fall back.
La Maldad is in on this.
(GRUNTING)
Miles, stay down.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
DANTE: Shaw must
have given up our position.
(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)
Keep the good doctor. I may need him.
MILES: Rob!
Go! (SHOUTING IN SPANISH)
Hey.
Rob.
(PHONE RINGS)
ROBYN: Harry, tell me you got 'em.
I'm in the hospital's auxiliary system.
The elevator down the hall
from you just went up to the roof.
Why go there?
(SCOFFS) The helipad.
Harry, Dee's father not dying today.
You have got to do something
- about it.
- I'm on it.
They just flew off
in the hospital's medivac,
heading on a bearing of 47 degrees.
Extrapolate that heading,
where does it lead?
Lots of places, including
Port Chester Airport.
Shaw has connections
from his naval aviation days.
He'll have no problem paying off a pilot
to fly them out of the country.
How long do we have?
Well, they can't land a
helicopter on an active airfield.
I'm guessing they're gonna land
in an abandoned lot
a mile to the west of them
and then take a ride in.
I don't know, 15 minutes, tops.
If they get there before us,
Miles disappears forever.
Come on.
Let's go.
Keep moving.
¿Listo?
Sí.
Vamos.
Let him go.
Everything else is negotiable.
But today I send you back to heaven.
(GRUNTING)
(GUNFIRE CONTINUES)
No.
(YELLS)
Ataca.
I know Shaw. I can talk him down.
- Marcus
- Robyn, trust me.
I'll bring your doc home.
Cover me.

ARMANDO (QUIETLY): Got you.
There's only two ways this ends.
Make your choice.
Oh, mi ángel de Navidad,
I made my choice a long time ago.
(GRUNTS)
Soon as we get over the border,
I am gonna cut you loose.
Yeah, right. Come on.
DANTE: Shaw.
SHAW: Hey, buddy.
You sneaking up on me?
Just let him go.
Mm. That's not gonna happen.
But I'll tell you what will.
I'm gonna shoot him if you
don't drop your gun right now.
Come on, Dante. It's up to you.
When did you sell us out?
You mean, was this my plan
all along? No.
But everybody's got a price.
Now one of two things
are hitting the ground.
It's either your gun or his brains.
Oh, no, you got to be kidding me. No.
No! No!
What the hell are you doing?!
He's going to kill me anyway! Shoot him!
Nah, I'm good.
(GUNSHOT)
Miles, you okay?
(PANTING)
I am now.
(HELICOPTER BLADES WHIRRING)
(FOOTFALLS APPROACHING)
- Hey.
- HARRY: Perfect timing.
Your Christmas Eve gift awaits.
Really?
Okay.
These are the lyrics
my therapist made me write.
You're gifting me my own lyrics?
(CHUCKLES) No, I am gifting you
your very own
guitar.
What? Okay, explain.
So, for the past few weeks,
I've been woken up in the middle
of the night by this humming.
You know? And I think,
"Am I dreaming? Maybe I'm dead."
I get up and I follow
this angelic humming
to discover that my wife
is playing one of my guitars.
And I-I think you may have
even broken a string or two.
- You've known?
- Well, I mean,
I do live here. But why hide it from me?
I don't know, maybe because
I'm hiding it from myself?
It's a very scary thing
to have someone see a part
of you you're not even used to.
Look, I know how hard it must
have been for you to write this.
(BREATHES DEEPLY)
But you deserve to be heard.
And because every day is a gift with you
and in honor of your journey
I present you with this.
Oh, man.
Babe.
Babe, you were right, it's perfect.
Take some time,
- get acquainted with her.
- (LAUGHS)
Um, I'll-I'll go upstairs
and help out, okay?
- Okay.
- Okay.

(HARRY APPLAUDS AND WHOOPS)
(EXHALES)
So good. (CHUCKLES)
Thank you.
How are you?
Shouldn't I be the one asking you that?
Well, I'm grateful.
That we're all together and safe.
Me, too.
I would have been
completely destroyed
if you never walked through
those doors again.
I'm sorry.
None of it gets easier, huh?
It was terrifying.
I just didn't have control
over a single thing.
But you know what I decided?
I am going to embrace my fears.
You are?
That cancer scare
really changed me in ways
that I didn't even realize.
I don't want to be strong on the outside
if I don't feel it on the inside.
I'm done with forcing myself to just
have it together all the time.
To always be in control.
You just want to meet yourself
where you are,
not where you think you should be.
Exactly. I'm going to embrace
what's in front of me.
Rumi said it,
"Every moment is a moment."
Such a gift.
That's a beautiful way to live.
- Isn't it?
- Yeah.
(SIGHS)
I have a few gifts
that I still need to wrap.
Hmm.
Miles.
MILES: Well
Miles.
We need to talk about us.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah.
I don't think that we should
What? Be happy?
Rob, we're good together.
And you know it.
We're safe together.
And that's not enough.
No, we're much more than that.
And if you just
give us a chance, a real chance,
I know you'll feel what I'm feeling.
Miles, we've been good
for a very long time.
We're different people now.
Robyn, I gave up on us once before.
Worst mistake of my life,
and I'm not gonna make it again.
'Cause when I'm out there
and I think about home,
it's you that I see.
And I look forward to the day
that you meet me there.
We will always be family.
But I cannot promise you a home.
Then I'll wait
until you can.
I got to go.
Hey, a few of us are
going over to Mel's bar,
gonna toast the holidays.
You want to come?
No, I'd love to, but Rain check?
I got a feeling they
could use Dr. Biceps
back at the hospital tonight.
(LAUGHS)
But, hey, if you're asking me
to go to the bar,
I'd say your heart
is right around the corner.
(CHUCKLES) You are
a fascinating combination
of selfless and pompous.
Hmm.
So you're saying I'm perfect?
Merry Christmas, Miles.
Merry Christmas, Rob.
