black as sackcloth of hair,

and the moon

became as blood;

And the stars of heaven

fell unto the earth,

even as a Hg tree

casteth her untimely figs,

when she is shaken

of a mighty wind.

Water?

All right,

who do we have here?

John Doe, killing a man,

firing a gun at a federal agent,

several times.

Diving out a window.

Impressive for a ghost.

The question is,

you just a hit man?

I don't think so.

How do you know

Rockwell?

He rip you off?

Was he gonna tell me something

you didn't want me to know?

Rockwell mentioned

Seven Wonders.

You know anything

about that, mystery man?

And I saw a new heaven

and a new earth

for the first heaven

and the first earth

were passed away.

There is

a revolution coming.

Revolution, huh?

A revolution of God.

Oh.

Well, I don't have

anything like that in my file.

Actually, Mr. Tanner,

I have a few questions

for you before you leave.

Hello, Shane.

Hey, Eve.

This day just keeps

getting better and better.

Shalom

aleikhem, ladies and gentlemen.

It seems after 3 days

of negotiations,

the world cannot agree on

anything except that Israel

should give a part of her

land in exchange for peace.

We are very much back to where

we started many years ago.

Israel gave upland

for peace in 1948.

Israel gave land

for peace with Egypt

during the Reagan

administration.

Israel gave Lebanon

for peace and got Hezbollah.

She gave Gaza for peace

and got the terrorist group,

Hamas.

Israel, the only nation created

by a direct and sovereign

act of God

over 3500 years ago

has no more land to give,

no more to give.

The weather situation

is much worse across the country,

blamed on this cold snap

and it's expected to continue

for at least another 3 days.

So has there been

enough concessions for the American

peace talks to go forward?

Yes,

Israel is willing to move ahead.

Unfortunately, Dawn,

there are those who believe

that these talks

should never happen.

Nick Tanner, he's a Spook.

Really?

When'd you

get into town?

Didn't even know

you were here.

Well, you're on

a need-to-know basis

and you didn't

need to know.

Counter Intel's changed

you a little bit, huh?

Put a little tire

in your belly?

Good for you.

I've always had

the fire, Shane.

I just choose to use logic

and evidence to make decisions

about my cases.

You know, one of us

had to make a move

and luckily

I was still able to.

Still angry about

our little mishap?

Our little mishap?

Are you kidding me?

You emptied 500 people

into the streets

in the middle

of a monsoon on a hunch.

You made me look

like a complete rookie

and you nearly

ruined by career

so forgive me

if I'm still a little angry.

I can just come back

for those later, ma'am.

It was

a good tip, Eve.

No, Shane,

it was a bad tip

but mostly

just a hunch.

And it's never

your fault.

You know what?

Believe whatever you want.

No one could ever tell you

anything different anyway.

Right? You're perfect,

especially now

that you're sporting

a new logo on your badge.

Oh, you have

some nerve, Shane.

You and your Counter Intel

friends ever hear

of an operation

called Seven Wonders?

No.

What is it?

I'm not sure. I was about

to End out from Rockwell

when you friend here

put him down.

You know who

he's working for?

We have our suspicions.

You get anything out of him

before he, you know?

No.

No,just a bunch

of Biblical nonsense,

quote from

the Book of Revelation.

Said something about

the revolution of God.

You know anything

about that?

Heard of it,

but nothing concrete.

Do you have any other

information or leads

to share with me before

I have a talk with him?

Maybe.

Why don't you let him

cool off for a little while.

Still like Russian food?

Those are ammo crates.

How long have

they been there?

Cream?

Agent Rearden.

You are much more beautiful

than he described.

You must stay

for my world-famous borscht.

How are you,

my friend?

I received a call.

Arlin Rockwell.

Yeah.

How do you know him?

Let us just say we have

mutual respect for one another.

How is he?

Dead.

Then this coffee

should be vodka.

Why was he killed?

I cannot help you

this time.

Can't or won't?

What's Seven Wonders?

We are capable

of greatness, Mr. Daughtry,

the music of Beethoven,

the words of Pushkin,

the brush strokes

of Rembrandt,

but not all genius

ends up in beauty.

There is myth that Russia

has created nuclear bombs

that a single person

can deploy and detonate.

A Russian scientist

working with Iran

has created truth

out of this myth.

Are you telling me

that Rockwell smuggled

nuclear weapons

into the United States?

Seven of them.

Seven Wonders.

Suitcase nukes?

Do you know what would

happen to city or cities

that are hit

by these bombs?

Hundreds of thousands

of people will die instantly.

Their flesh will literally

melt off their bodies,

but the real strategic purpose

is the ultimate chaos

that will result

from such attack.

The attack itself

is not the sole purpose?

No, Mr. Daughtry.

The sole purpose is disruption

of American government

and financial

institutions.

A distraction.

The America you know

will be part of history

and unable

to protect its friends.

What friends?

Israel.

Do you know

that two Russian fleets

are steering for exercises

in the Persian gulf?

Is this

Russian intelligence?

They cannot exactly say.

They are going to blockade

the Strait of Hormuz.

But they are moving

a muscle to do it.

Why is it that America

always thinks

that we are center

of attention

when what we're dealing with

here is a new world order?

There's no information in our

files that this would be nukes.

What files?

How could that

have gotten passed us?

Tell me

what's going on, Eve.

All right, what are you

not telling me?

Get me up to speed now

or get out of my truck.

Matthew Dean is a CIA operative

we've been investigating.

Nick and Dean have been

in communication

for the last several weeks.

We believe that they are working

together on a major operation.

What, the nukes?

We have information that

the CIA has been investigating

certain Biblical

or apocalyptic events.

Whoa, whoa.

Are you kidding me?

I haven't been able to

wrap my head around it either

but apparently recent

world events have been

fitting right into what is known

as the Ezekiel war scenario.

What is the

Ezekiel war scenario?

Eve?

According to the Hebrew

prophet, Ezekiel,

in the Last Days

the people of Persia,

which is, of course, Iran,

and the people of Gog or Rosh,

which many believe to be Russia,

form an alliance

whose main purpose

is to obliterate Israel.

I'm gonna go

talk to your spook.

Yes?

Your brother was picked up.

FBI Agent Shane Daughtry.

How would you

like me to proceed?

Clean the

house, starting with the sister's bedroom.

You have company.

See that they

are attended to.

Copy that.

Agent Rearden.

Apparently your

assassin has a sister.
