Come on, Daddy.
I'm telling you, Rutgers is
gonna bust everyone's bracket.
I don't know about that, bro.
Yes, that Rutgers.
They got these two freshmen.
They're built different.
- Daddy!
- Okay, I gotta go.
Take the points. Thank me later.
You serious?
- Just place the bet.
- Oh okay.
Okay, bye.
Okay, which exhibit we hitting first?
- This way.
- All right, let's do it.
[PHONE BUZZES]
Sorry, just a sec, I promise.
Stay close.
Dude, place the bet.
Darnell?
- Hello? Who is this?
- [PHONE BEEPS]
Rose?
Rose?
[TENSE MUSIC]
Rose?
Rose?
Rose!
Excuse me.
Uh, hey, have you seen a little girl?
Little girl, uh,
eight years old, yellow hat?
Rose!

Rose!
Rose!
♪
Hey, partner.
- Oh.
- What? Too soon?
No, I'll get used to it. What do we got?
Missing eight-year-old girl.
First 48's everything, so we gotta roll.
You wanna drive or should I?
I don't drive if I don't have to.
- [PHONE BEEPS]
- What?
AMBER Alert. Clock's ticking.
One minute, the person
you care about most
is there. The next, they're gone.
A parent's worst nightmare.
How did no one see
a little kid get taken?
No one heard her scream?
Well, maybe she didn't scream.
If she knew her abductor,
she would have gone willingly.
Oh, here we go. Mr. Carvalho.
- Yeah?
- FBI.
Please take a walk with us.
Oh, hey, I was just
telling the cops I know
- I know who took my daughter.
- Okay.
- Who is that?
- Rose's mom.
Her name's Lisbeth Carvalho.
I'm telling you, she has her right now.
- You need to find her.
- Okay, hold on.
Why would she take Rose?
We're divorced, and she's an addict.
Fentanyl now, I think.
About a year ago,
she got high, passed out
while she was watching Rose
and burned the house down,
- so I had to kick her out.
- Do you guys share custody?
No, no, definitely not. I, uh
I had to get a restraining order,
but she keeps violating it.
She's [BREATHES DEEPLY]
She's not rational.
Has anything happened recently?
Yeah, actually, I got a call
from the school yesterday.
She was outside
the playground watching Rose.
Did you call the cops then?
No, I should have.
We need Lisbeth's address.
She's homeless.
And the kind of people
she hangs out with,
my daughter is not safe.
What were you doing
when Rose disappeared?
I was on the phone with a friend.
I had eyes on Rose,
and then I got another call
from an unknown number,
and it distracted me.
Okay, I want you to head back
home in case Rose goes there.
We're gonna send
a crisis negotiating team
- to be with you.
- Okay.
Listen up, with Jubal down in Quantico,
you are stuck with me.
We have 8-year-old Rose Carvalho.
She's been missing for three hours,
and our primary suspect is her mother,
Lisbeth Carvalho.
Let's bring her home safe, guys.
What do we know?
Mom's got three arrests
for drug possession.
Court records confirm
a lengthy custody battle,
erratic behavior.
She's slated to see her daughter
once a year under supervision,
but she's stalking her own kid.
Okay, what about a workplace?
She'd been part-timing
at a sewing machine factory
in the Garment District. Paid in cash.
- Fired two weeks ago.
- Hmm.
- Do we have any video on her?
- Uh, nothing at the museum.
But we checked Rose's school,
cross-referenced the perimeter cams
with Lisbeth's face, got a match.
This is from yesterday.
Oh, that's her.
She's taking photos of Rose.
- Is anyone else with her?
- No, she's alone.
So her phone doesn't match the number
that called in to distract the dad
right before Rose was grabbed.
That number goes back to a burner.
We pinged Lisbeth's phone,
but it's not transmitting,
- so assuming it's off.
- Okay.
Can we get the location before
she turned the phone off?
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
♪
This is no place for an 8-year-old.
Hey, look at this.
Do you know where
this woman is? Lisbeth?
♪
Maggie! I got her.
Lisbeth?
Lisbeth, wake up!
She's OD'ing. Give me the Narcan.
Here. We have Lisbeth.
We need an ambo to our location.
She could be overdosing.
Rose! Rose!
[GASPING]
Hey, hey, hey, hey. Hey, it's okay.
It's okay. It's okay.
Lisbeth, my name's Maggie.
I'm with the FBI.
You're okay.
Where's your daughter?
- Rose?
- Where's your daughter?
- Is she here?
- Of course, she's not here.
Do wait, wait.
Why are you asking about my daughter?
[GROANS SOFTLY]
I would never, ever
put my Rose in any danger.
I didn't take her.
My sister struggles with addiction,
and she would say just about anything.
Okay, I know I'm a mess, but
um, I just wanted to see her.
I didn't take her.
We are gonna need your phone.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Maggie sent over a trove
of photos from the mom's phone.
- She snapped these this morning.
- Hmm.
So Mom was there at the museum.
But I cross-referenced
the metadata of the photos
with her phone's GPS.
She never got within
50 feet of her daughter.
Which means Rose's kidnapper
is still out there.
The Moment feature gives us
an extra three seconds,
so we've got facial rec scrubbing.
AI also noticed this van pop up twice.
Separate photos, two different days.
That's no coincidence.
Astro van also appeared in
the background of that video
we have of the mom
outside of Rose's school.
- Did we get a plate?
- Photo didn't capture it.
Hey, doorbell cam caught the Astro van
outside the little girl's
house yesterday.
So the kidnappers were
tracking the little girl.
This is sophisticated
pre-operational surveillance.
Plates on the van are stolen.
They match the make and model, but
All right, give me a location.
Found it.
Queens-Midtown Tunnel,
roughly 20 minutes ago.
Exited Long Island City.
Wait, uh, Rose's father
works in Long Island City.
Get him on the phone. What does he do?
He's an operating engineer
at a logistics outfit,
Gotham Light Industrial.
Okay, he's not answering,
and the crisis negotiating team
at his home said he never showed.
His phone must be off.
Can't get a location.
- This is not a good sign.
- Another hit on the van.
Traffic cam picked it up a block away
from Gotham Light Industrial.
Get the team over there now.
All right,
definitely closed for business.
Then why was the door open?
[DISTANT CRASH]

They don't care about us.
- It better be.

[QUIETLY] We've interrupted a heist.
I see a gray cargo van.
I've got two armed assailants.
They got some serious firepower.
Move, move! We're out.
FBI! Drop your weapons!
Drop your weapons!
[GUNFIRE]
[TENSE MUSIC]
Ah! [GRUNTS]
I'll cover you. Get him.
- Let's go, let's go!
- We got a third shooter!

We lost them.
Suspects fleeing in a gray Astro van.
We need air support now.
Agent down. Gunshot wound to the chest.
I need a bus here now!
- Shh, shh, shh.
- On my six.
- FBI!
- No!
Okay, it's just us. Don't shoot.
- Don't shoot.
- What did they take?
C-4 explosives.
It's okay. It's okay.
- [HYPERVENTILATING]
- It's okay, I got you.
It's okay. It's okay.
There are dangerous explosives
in the wrong hands, Mr. Carvalho.
They had my daughter. I had no choice.
And we understand that,
but New Yorkers are now at risk.
They threw me in the back of a van.
They had a bag over Rose's head.
They were holding a gun up to her.
What would you have done?
You said that you were
on the phone speaking
to a friend at the time Rose was taken?
A witness said you were placing a bet.
So what's that about?
That has nothing to do with this.
I I didn't do anything wrong.
I I took my eyes off
my daughter for one second.
- It was one second.
- Okay, okay.
Calm down.
We have to ask these questions.
You were targeted.
Why do you think that was?
I have no idea, but they knew
where to find me.
They knew the route I was taking home.
They knew where I worked.
They knew how to get in.
They used you to bypass
the biometric security.
Yeah.
I'm telling you,
they knew everything about me.
Who are these guys?
We are trying to figure that out.
Can you describe them?
Uh, no, they were wearing masks,
but some of them were foreign.
- Foreign?
- I I don't really know.
They had accents. French, maybe.
Can I just please be with my daughter?
Thank you.
Hey, baby. How you doing?
Thank you so much.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Cameras are disabled,
just like the hall
where they abducted Rose.
International crew
is gonna be hard to find.
I've got the explosives vault manifest.
They put in a lot of work
to only take 12 pounds of C-4.
Well, I mean,
we interrupted them, didn't we?
Or that's all they needed.
It's just random is all.
About as random as us showing up
before they could take 13 pounds.
I mean, 12 pounds mixed with
enough ammonium nitrate
could take down a building
- Oklahoma City-style.
- How do you know that?
I'm just saying, worst-case scenario.
You know how you do that thing
where you say the thing
that begs the follow-up?
All right, so what do we know?
These guys meticulously researched
- their targets, right?
- Mm-hmm.
They carry their wounded out quick.
- The guy you dropped, yeah.
- Mm-hmm.
- Says to me
- Military trained.
No man left behind.
They left something behind.
♪
Getaway van lost a side view
mirror in their escape.
Copy that. Missing side view.
Still no hit on the plates.
Maybe they swapped them out.
Wait, wait, what about this one?
Missing mirror, plates don't match
- the make and model.
- That's the crew's van.
All right. Loop in NYPD.
Tell them do not engage
until we get there.
This is a heavily armed crew.
Send in SWAT.
[TENSE MUSIC]
♪
This one's grisly.
Body's been fully anonymized
no head or limbs, just the torso.
There's a bullet wound, but it appears
the slug was taken with them.
So somebody went out
of their way to make sure
we would not ID this body.
At least not immediately.
The body's warm.
I can get a DNA sample.
Blood type's a match for the
trail you found at the scene.
Probably from the guy you dropped.
His friends did him worse.
They missed one detail though.
Their compatriot here had
an implanted cardiac device.
A pacemaker.
Okay, well, if it's made of
metal, and somebody sold it
to somebody else,
it's got a serial number.
- Thanks, Neil.
- Yeah.
All right. Let me call you back.
The serial number on
the pacemaker ID'd our body.
His name is Curtis Knight.
He's American.
Green Beret turned security consultant.
He's a mercenary. Interpol?
A team's chasing them down now.
It turns out that the pacemaker
is connected to a smartphone app
doctors use to monitor his heart.
Wait, it has GPS data?
We are looking at pings
in Manhattan, Queens, and
hold on a second.
Um, there's a cluster of them
under the Queensboro Bridge.
Uh, this was as recent
as five hours ago.
If they are building a major explosive,
they could take down the entire bridge.
Alert the JOC.
Imminent threat. Yeah.
♪
It's locked.
If the C-4's in here, and it's rigged
It could take out that bridge.
All right. Okay, easy, easy.
All right, we're clear.
[DOOR CREAKS]
♪
That's C-4.
Blasting caps.
They're making a bomb in here.
I think this is blood.
OA, I got more over here.
Oh, I got a body.
Maggie, that's a hazmat suit.

Left side! Left side!
Get out. Biohazard.
Get out of here. Clear out now.
[AGENTS SHOUTING]
[COUGHING, WHEEZING]
♪
Agent Reynolds,
here's what we know so far.
The Queensboro Bridge
was not the target.
The crew was in that area to
build some sort of dirty bomb,
and then they lost control
of that material.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Absolutely.
Biohazard exposure is the priority.
USAMRIID is already on site.
- Yeah.
- [PHONE BUZZES]
Listen, I have
a ground agent calling in.
Absolutely.
- [PHONE BEEPS]
- Scola.
Yeah, so they weren't
building a fertilizer bomb.
The army team is here.
They're saying that it's anthrax.
I mean, based on the condition
of the infected,
they're suspecting inhalation.
I mean, the guy was pretty far gone.
- Powder or aerosol?
- Well, they don't know yet.
They're sweeping for spores now,
but if they got 1,000 lethal doses
in 1 gram of this stuff,
I mean, they don't need much.
- And Maggie and OA?
- Yeah, they're, uh
they're headed in now, Isobel.
Oh, God, I hate this part.
You and me both.
But what can we do but pray,
I guess, right?
[SIGHS]
Hey, we're gonna be okay.
You saw how that guy looked.
Anthrax can't be transferred
person-to-person.
If we were exposed,
we'd already be symptomatic.
This is exactly why
I had to give up Ella.
[APPREHENSIVE MUSIC]
You know, we give everything
to this job.
Everything.
And what does it cost us?
A family, a normal life.
And for what?
To stop people like this.
We're gonna be all right.
You don't know that.
We have to be.
We've still gotta find them.
[SIREN WAILING]
[TENSE MUSIC]
♪
We're waiting for the results
from your blood samples.
Good news, our team hasn't found
significant traces of anthrax
in the container
or the warehouse.
Okay.
Okay, but that still means
that the anthrax
that they got their hands on
is with them now.
Can anthrax be dispersed
with an explosive?
Affirmative.
Spores are resilient in extreme heat.
Oh, my God.
They're building a dirty bomb.
They're gonna send this thing
far and wide.
When can we get out of here?
We'll clear you once the tests are back.
Okay, uh, what about the guy
that was in the container?
How's he doing?
He's unconscious, nonresponsive.
He's the only guy that
can lead us to his team.
Uh, can you get him well enough
for us to speak with him?
Doubtful. Based on his condition,
I'd say he's been infected
for over a week.
What?
- A week?
- No, that's not possible.
He was locked in that container
with a block of C-4
that was just stolen, like today.
Anthrax doesn't have
that accelerated rate
of tissue damage in a day.
Okay, meaning what, Doctor?
This is something else.
♪
Super anthrax?
Yeah, USAMRIID believes
it's a modified strain
to turn you from the
inside out at a faster rate.
But the good news is,
our blood work came back.
- We're all clear.
- I heard.
There was cheering coming from the JOC.
Do we know, uh do we know
who designed this new strain?
Syria.
When their previous government fell,
their weapons labs and
stockpiles were vulnerable.
And any idea how it got
from Syria to New York City?
International mercenaries
probably smuggled it in.
And then sourced the explosives
they needed for their
dirty bomb here in New York.
But what is their target?
ADIC Reynolds wants us
to keep this close to the chest
- so we don't cause public panic.
- Okay.
Well, if these guys are
trafficking a bioweapon, what?
I mean, we're looking
for a buyer, right?
Maybe.
Or maybe they plan to use
this thing themselves.
Mercenaries are usually
financially motivated.
Nine times out of ten,
they get their hands on something,
it's to sell.
Right, right.
But this could be that tenth time.
Okay, so what's your point?
My point is,
bomb's going off either way.
She's right.
We've gotta ID the members of the crew,
maybe match them
to potential buyers, maybe not.
Either way, we've gotta get
this dirty bomb off the streets.
The mercs did have one thing in common.
Both of their blood work suggested
that they'd been vaccinated for anthrax,
smallpox, and bubonic plague,
the latter of which is no longer
even commercially available.
Like they were planning on
infiltrating a bioweapons lab.
Okay, but if they were so careful,
then how did the guy in
the container get infected?
This is a bioengineered bug.
There really is no vaccine for it.
This guy makes one tiny
little mistake, and he's
hey, we got an ID.
Interpol matched the prints
to our infected man
in the storage container.
His name is Tevian Michelle,
former French Special Forces,
PhD in biology.
Oh, so their biohazard expert.
He's got two known
associates, Curtis Knight
Their partner
whose body they chopped up.
And Vaughn Pulver.
He's Irish. He owns a shipping outfit.
Interpol suspects
he's involved in trafficking.
Former Irish Defense, Ordinance Corps.
All right, the bomb expert
and last member of the crew.
Well, Interpol believes
that at least two of these men
traveled to Syria in the last year,
just as the regime fell.
That's how they secured the anthrax.
All right, all of these pieces
are fitting into place.
We have one in the hospital.
One is dead.
Where's Pulver now?
Uh, DHS has him in the States,
but his whereabouts are unknown.
All right, let's get
a warrant out to NYPD.
This guy is somewhere in New York City.
I want him in custody now.
Hey, Tevian Michelle
is awake in quarantine.
He's in and out of consciousness.
We'll take our shot.
Even if he tries, he's intubated.
He can't speak.
We'll figure it out.

Well, that's kind of how this works.
Look, you don't get it.
We're not safe.
A dirty bomb is gonna
blanket the city with anthrax.
Where are we with
tracing Pulver's steps?
We can trace him back as far
as his arrival at the pier,
but we lose him under the FDR.
He's always got that backpack
full of books.
So what was he doing there
if he didn't have the bomb?
Maybe we prevented the drop.
Who'd you meet at the pier?
Once I'm transferred out of the city
immediately, as in right now,
this very second,
I walk out the door
I'll talk, but we've gotta go.
Where do you wanna go?
North, south, I don't care.
I want you to get me out
of Lower Manhattan.
You're the one that built the device,
and you know when it's going off.
Imminently.
You don't wanna be here when it does.
What's the target?
I don't know.
Footage from the ferry cams is in.
MTA is uploading,
and facial rec is running.
Hoping the cameras on the ferries
can fill in one of our blind spots.
Nice.
This one catches him
at the edge of the pier.

Man in the hat.
He has a backpack too.
The backpacks are identical.
There.

Pulver did make the drop,
just minutes before we arrived.
Look at the way he handles it.
He knows it's sensitive.
Yeah, we have to assume

Dual citizenship in the Maldives.
But he's here on a B2 medical visa.
Correct.
He's got late-stage

My family. What does that mean?
His son, a hedge fund trader.
His company that he
worked for was implicated
in a huge insider trading scandal,
and it looks like the son
ended up taking the fall.
He ended up killing himself.

We think he's nearby with enough anthrax

Maybe he pivots to someplace outdoors.
He came to put a bomb
in the stock exchange.
He could have found another way.

I want you to get me out
of Lower Manhattan.
You're the one that built the device,
and you know when it's going off.
Imminently.
You don't wanna be here when it does.
What's the target?
I don't know.
Footage from the ferry cams is in.
MTA is uploading,
and facial rec is running.
Hoping the cameras on the ferries
can fill in one of our blind spots.
Nice.
This one catches him
at the edge of the pier.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Man in the hat.
He has a backpack too.
The backpacks are identical.
There.
Mystery man takes Pulver's bag.
Pulver did make the drop,
just minutes before we arrived.
Look at the way he handles it.
He knows it's sensitive.
Yeah, we have to assume
the man in the hat
now has the bioweapon.
He's wearing that mask.
Not much I can do for facial rec.
But now we know he's out there.
We need a name. Text Maggie.
[PHONE BUZZES]
This is the man you met at the pier.
What is his name?
[SIGHS] Do we have a deal?
- Give us a name.
- Do we have a deal?
You give us a name,
we'll get you out of the city.
What is it?
His name is Ahmet Meydan.
Homeland has him entering the country
three days ago through JFK.
He's a Turkish national.
Dual citizenship in the Maldives.
But he's here on a B2 medical visa.
Correct.
He's got late-stage
thyroid cancer treatment.
A man with nothing left to lose.
Hey, uh, you're gonna wanna see this.
Found this clip from
local TV in the Maldives.
It's from a year ago.
This toxic American
economic machine is to blame.
I'm not a violent man,
but this capitalist machine
must be destroyed
before it destroys us all.
What it has done
and is doing to my family,
to your families,
it must be stopped.
My family. What does that mean?
His son, a hedge fund trader.
His company that he
worked for was implicated
in a huge insider trading scandal,
and it looks like the son
ended up taking the fall.
He ended up killing himself.
And now his father's here
to send a message.
Meydan is staying in
a hotel in Lower Manhattan,
right near Wall Street.
Ground zero of
America's economic machine.
- Check with NYSE security.
- On it.
Ma'am, if this bomb goes off,
he disrupts the entire financial sector
for months, if not years.
All right, coordinate with
NYPD Counterterrorism,
ready for an evacuation,
and activate
the critical incident response.

They have him on video.
Look, it's him. It's a match.
Meydan has the bomb.
- We're gonna notify NYPD now.
- Okay.
This guy wants to shut
Wall Street down permanently.
If he can't get a bomb
onto the trading floor,
what does he do next? Holcomb!
We think he's nearby with enough anthrax
and C-4 to blow it up anywhere
and still get what he wants.
Maybe he pivots to someplace outdoors.
He came to put a bomb
in the stock exchange.
He could have found another way.
We've got dogs searching there now.
I'm with my partner, okay?
We're gonna go block by block,
so tell your guys
- 'cause we're on his clock now.
- I'll re-route my guys.
He's gonna see us evacuating people.
He's probably on the run.
Suspect is walking
north on Nassau.
We're on it.
Meydan!
- Hands up!
- FBI.
Put 'em up!
Put 'em up!
Where's your backpack?

If this bomb goes off, you die too.
I'm already dead.
