Deadly Impact Page #6

Hey.

Let the long trail of false leads begin.

What do you have there?

It's Sam Skittles'

polygraph results.

Some inconsistencies there.

Just about to go over them.

I know there's a clue in there

if I can find one.

I brought a snack, if you wanna join me.

It's from one of my favorite bakeries

in the world.

Oh, God, I can't.

Come on. I ain't gonna tell anybody.

Building's practically empty, anyways.

It's just us obsessives in here at this hour.

- I've been on a diet since my divorce.

- I didn't even know you were married.

Yeah, in a former life.

Before I gave it all up for this.

I've always liked your wall of death, there.

It's nice.

Well, you know,

it's important in design to have a theme.

So, why'd you get divorced?

I mean, if you don't mind talking about it.

No, not at all. I was just too young.

It was hard for me

to be a good agent and a good wife.

I guess I just couldn't figure out

a way to balance the two, you know?

And then one day,

I realized that I was a divorced workaholic.

- And I'm okay with that.

- You sure you're okay with that?

I am. I mean, I hate to sound like a clich,

but the work we do here

makes the country a safer place.

And it's a sacrifice that I'm willing to make.

Mmm.

- I told you.

- Wow!

Yeah.

You know, it made me see

that you can give your life to your country

without actually dying for it.

You know, I guess some day,

I would like to have a husband

and some kids.

But, I don't know,

I guess you can't have everything, right?

- What?

- No, nothing, I'm just, um...

Just thinking about

what you said, you know?

It's always the people

who sacrifice the most

that actually deserve the most.

It's sad but true, you know?

What is it?

Are you hungry?

- Yeah.

- Yeah, me, too.

Why don't we go get something to eat?

We have to assume he's listening

to everything we say inside that building.

So this is how he's been a step ahead of us

from the beginning,

- and how he knows everything we do.

- Yeah, looks that way.

All right, well, the video

from the cop's dashboard cam

gave us a shot of the plate,

but can only make out 725.

This is for the press release.

Okay, so we're gonna do a sweep

of the entire building

for weapons or bombs.

We just have to make sure

The Lion doesn't get wind

of what we're up to.

Hey, baby, how you doing?

THE LION ON CELL PHONE... Hey, Agent Alba.

Who the f*** is this?

I've got somebody who wants to say hi.

Hold on.

Daddy.

Amy?

You f***ing touch her, I swear to you...

No, no.

She's in my protective custody now.

I just need you to help close Panama.

RYAN... What the f*** is Panama?

See, you made her all upset.

Hey, Ryan, what's up?

Nothing, man. I'm just...

I'm just tired, you know?

It's just tomorrow

is The Lion's deadline, you know?

- We're gonna get him, you know.

- Yeah.

Be nice to scoop him up tonight,

but we're gonna get him.

He was in the FBI building, so he had to

go through a background check.

We know what his name is now.

We know who he is.

Just a matter of time

before we know where he is.

I hope so.

The Lion's name is David Kaplow.

How do we know?

Finally got through the records

of the night cleaning crew.

Turns out that he worked in this office

about six months ago as a janitor.

Had to use his real name

to get through the background check.

Downtown's running the books

for any additional numbers,

contacts, addresses.

As soon as we get the approval

from home base, run a release.

Name and face, guys. We're gaining on him.

- Yeah.

- THE LION ON CELL PHONE... Hello, Tom.

You know, it must kill you to know

you've been this close to me

and yet you still have

nothing to show for it.

I'm closer to you than you think.

You know, I don't like

your tone of voice right now, Tom.

- You can't catch me.

- Oh, I will find you.

Oh, fella, you must've sucked down

too many tequilas down there in Mexico.

I made you kill your wife

and blew up that hotel right in front of you.

I even pissed in your fishbowl.

I'm gonna hurt you, Tom.

I know about your new girlfriend.

I guess you're out of mourning.

I'm gonna make it long and painful

for your little chiquita.

I mean, how much more

do I have to take from you?

You're not taking anything from me again.

F*** you, Tom.

You want to escalate things? Fine.

Tom, here's the number.

You can't catch me. I'm invisible.

I know your name, Kaplow.

I got a photograph of your face.

When that picture

hits the airways in 20 minutes,

the whole world's gonna know who you are.

Your life is over.

The gap is closing, motherf***er.

A lawyer representing David Kaplow

just called the office.

Kaplow has agreed

to turn himself in at 2:00 p. m.,

and he's agreed to give us the location

of half the bombs he claims

he's placed throughout the city.

He'll do this if the DA agrees

not to seek the death penalty.

The DA has agreed.

Well, that sounds like a setup.

I know. I don't understand it, either.

We have 143 active leads

regarding Kaplow's truck and sedan.

I want all agents back here

by 1:
00 p. m., though,

'cause I wouldn't be surprised

if Kaplow decides to walk in here

with C-4 strapped to his chest.

Get strike teams positioned

at every corner surrounding the building.

I want no vehicles within 100 yards.

Tell them we'll brief the press

as soon as Kaplow is safely inside.

Let's go.

Is that Skittles' polygraph?

These results

are just so inconsistent.

Listen to these questions.

"Did you meet with The Lion?"

Answer, "Yes. " That was true.

"Did The Lion offer you a job?"

"Yes. " That was true.

"Did you refuse the job?"

"Yes. " That is false.

"Is The Lion planning

to assassinate Senator Cordero?"

"Yes. " That's true.

"Are you informing on The Lion?"

Answer, "Yes. "

That's false.

The only way

to logically piece this together

is to imagine that he paid Skittles

to come here and tell us

that he was gonna kill the senator.

But there'd be no advantage in that.

I don't get it. Makes no sense.

We know his name now, though.

So, we track his whereabouts,

compare that

to the whereabouts

we have in The Lion file,

his airline information.

We know he was in Columbia and Panama

four months ago.

Wait and see what the CIA has.

And Panama keeps popping up. It's Hops.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

No. Uh-uh. It's not a problem.

I'm going that way anyway.

Uh-huh. All right.

A self storage garage manager called,

said he saw the press release.

A guy who fits the description

is renting a storage unit from him.

I have to go check it out. Call me

if anything interesting happens, okay?

Will do. Be careful.

Will do.

THE LION ON CELL PHONE... Okay, Senator,

I've got the first half of the money.

We're in business.

Where's the list?

I am e-mailing you 40 addresses.

Now, after you verify

that they're legitimate,

wire the other $10 million

and I'll give you the last 40 addresses.

Hi. How are you?

- Hi. Can I help you?

Isabel Ordonez, FBI.

Oh! Great.
