This is an observe and report only,
do you copy?
Do not pursue, do you copy?
Break off the pursuit.
Cole!
Sarah?
Sarah!
Sarah!
Sarah.
Maria, it's okay.
Maria, it's okay, calm down.
It's okay.
No, no. No problemo.
No, Maria!
Not a problem, it's okay.
With seasonal temperatures,
we should reach our normal high...
Hello?
Cole, Cole I'm in trouble.
What happened?
I didn't do it, I swear I didn't.
You didn't do what?
I can't explain.
They think...
They think I did it.
They think I did it.
Where's Sarah?
Johnny, where's Sarah?
You look good.
You didn't have to work?
I uh, I had some time off coming.
I'm sorry... about this
and everything else.
It's not any more comforting to know
you didn't plan on screwing my wife.
It's not like she didn't have
something to do with it either.
You ever ask yourself that?
You ever ask yourself why
your wife of nine years...
would just pack up her
things and leave you for me?
Fine, yeah.
We had some problems,
doesn't everybody?
So what's your excuse for taking
advantage of the situation
and f***ing your own brother's wife?
Cole, someone did this
to make it look like me.
I would never hurt Sarah,
you've got to believe me.
I think I was drugged.
Come on, Johnny.
This is me you're talking to.
She was working on a story.
What kind of story?
Something about border
cartels, it was big.
Cole, please... get me out of here.
Let me go! Let me go! My office knows
where I'm at, I know the police!
- Just calm down.
- Stop It!
- Calm down!
- Okay.
- Relax, would you?
- Okay, okay, okay.
What are you doing here?
Who are you?
Would you quit it? Would you stop?
Who the hell are you?
Who am I? Who the hell are you?
I'm a friend of the victim's.
Okay.
What are you doing,
trying to steal this?
It's mine, you a**hole. I'm a photo
journalist, I worked with Sarah.
Jeez.
- Gracie.
- I'm Cole.
You're the ex-husband.
So she told you about me?
She said you're an a**hole, yeah.
Great, well at least she remembered.
Gracias.
Don't you have work
or something to do?
I took some time off.
What can you tell me about
how Sarah was killed?
Don't you?
She was investigating a series
of articles she was writing.
About anyone in particular?
Raul Montenegro. He's a
businessman and philanthropist.
Spent tons of money on churches,
schools. But he made his fortune...
as a middleman between the South American
drug producers and the border cartels.
Doing what?
Finance, mainly.
So he's a banker, a mob banker.
Exactly.
I'm a little surprised you don't know
about him, being a federal agent and all.
Why couldn't she
just stick to politics?
She did.
He's running for mayor.
That Montenegro?
When he announced his candidacy,
his only son, Cesar, tried to
make a play for his business.
The family split.
What are you not telling me?
There was some money.
Well then yeah, here we go.
Look, she didn't steal anything.
When Cesar left his father
he stole from him, um...
What do you call, money on paper.
Bearer bonds?
Right, 26 bonds worth 500,000 each.
Thirteen million dollars, Jesus.
Sarah's informant
stole them from Cesar.
When he met up with Sarah, he panicked,
and he asked her to hide them.
- You know where the bonds are?
- No.
You know, what I don't understand,
why can't she just give back
the bonds and walk away?
because she's holding out.
She knows that once she gives
the bonds back, they'll kill her.
We don't have much time.
- Sorry I'm late, Javier.
- Hey Raul, not a problem.
- How are you?
- I'm well, how are you doing?
Pretty good. So, brief me.
Well, we need to file new numbers
for the election commission,
and you can go ahead and sign the loan
yourself as a campaign contribution.
We'll go ahead and write
it off as a loss later.
That easy?
- Aye.
- And then we're good there?
Everything's taken care of.
- Great job, Javier.
- Thank you.
You know I really appreciate everything
you've done for me over the years.
Thank you sir, I'm happy to do it.
You know, this is a...
This is a very difficult time for
the family with my son, you know,
and you've been there always for us.
I'm happy to do it.
I find money doesn't
always buy loyalties.
People need to be appreciated.
Javier, do you feel
appreciated by us?
Of course.
Am I paying you enough?
- More than enough, I'm very happy.
- Are you?
- Yeah.
- Very Happy?
You know, sometimes people, who may not
otherwise be happy or feel appreciated,
they start to get excited
about what they know...
and how much they know.
Like more attention or when
someone comes to them offering...
- The chance to be a hero.
- Okay...
Javier, are you the hero type?
No sir, I just do my job and...
Tell me something. Do you know the
difference between hero and soldier?
- No.
- No.
Soldiers are those
who come back home.
Heroes are those who lie dead...
at the battlefield.
Would you like to be a hero?
Would you be a hero?
I just want to do my job.
Do you?
Javier...
someone has been leaking
information to the press.
Do we have any leads or...
You know we want to take this legit.
I'm gonna take this whole
family out of the shadows.
And we are going to become
properly society people.
And nothing or nobody
is going to stop that.
- Hey.
- Buenos dias.
Buenos dias.
Donut?
No, thank you.
You gotta keep your energy up.
Good for you.
No Gracie, none of me.
I'm not even supposed to be here.
He's your brother, huh? John?
Yeah.
Your brother is married to your ex-wife?
How does that make you feel?
I really don't care.
That can't be true.
I need you to jump in the back seat.
What?
Now, you need to get
in the back seat now.
- Get in the back seat now.
- You get in the back...
Oh, Jesus, who's...
- Cole.
- Dale.
Who's the chick, Cole?
Excuse me?
- Chick?
- Hold that.
She's cool.
Alright we got this geo-intel
from a drone late yesterday.
This is a drop point in Raul
Montenegro's trafficking network.
We think his son Cesar's been
using it for his own exploits.
Unbeknownst to daddy.
I've seen a lot of activity
the last 48 hours there.
Courier vehicles?
There was one vehicle that entered
under the loading dock last night.
Too small for a drop,
but just the right size for,
let's say, a hostage.
Do you have intel on
this particular building?
Yeah.
It's all there.
Hey look, if you think you
to see it zeroed out.
He means destroyed.
put my neck out for the agency?
All I want is to get the girl back.
You were suspended
for a reason, Cole.
Suspended?
You put a Mexican intelligence
officer in the hospital.
You made a bonehead call
and it bit you in your ass.
A little extracurricular activity could go
a long way in getting your badge back.
This isn't for the agency, is it?
They don't even know
you're here, right?
