[man praying in Arabic]
[barking]
[whining and barking]
No witnesses.
[dog yelps]
These are crazy times.
No. He's clever, this guy,
and based on the efficiency of the hit,
very well equipped.
Any idea who might be behind it?
None whatsoever, but, uh,
it does have me a little bit curious
as to why.
Why don't you give me
your professional opinion?
I mean, what makes somebody
become a vigilante?
I mean, profile him for me.
Well, let's see.
Well, to take responsibility
for the crime, right?
It takes guts, patience,
and an odd sort of morality.
And he's gotten away with it
a number of times,
which has probably
emboldened him and...
makes him think
he's not gonna get caught.
[applause]
Oh, lovely.
Well, let's hope he's wrong about that.
[new song begins]
Ah, our friend from the other night.
The fascinating thing about the female form
is its supple nature, is it not?
Its elasticity, its alacrity, and...
variability.
You're a slow starter, my friend,
but I'll give you this:
you have impeccable taste.
She's interested in you.
- It's obvious.
- [scoffs]
Robert, celibacy is for monks,
my friend,
and I'm not convinced
it's very good for them, either.
Look, it's not that I don't want
to meet somebody,
I just...
I don't want to lose somebody, either.
I'm not suggesting you marry her.
Anyway, these Eastern Bloc girls
can be trouble.
No, just keep it short and sweet.
Two dates, three maximum.
There's definitely something about her.
Well, go for it, my friend.
You only live once, allegedly, right?
What are you doing?
Where you going?
Come on, don't leave me here.
I'm sure I'm not even her type.
Listen, Robert...
I know that losing your wife
was tough, the worst.
I'm going to ask you a question.
You don't have to answer it.
Is it you're afraid
or is it you don't think
you deserve to have one, hmm?
I'll see you very soon, my friend.
Very soon.
[drums only]
[applause]
Wait.
You are stunning.
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that.
Would you care to join me, miss?
I'd love to.
I'll go change.
Your dancing is...
It's extraordinary.
I've never seen anything like it.
You're nice for an American.
Thank you.
[clears throat, sighs]
Am I making you nervous?
No, no, not at all.
It's just that, um...
you, uh...
you remind me of someone.
Your wife perhaps back in America?
Oh, this? No, no, no.
I'm not married.
Oh, divorced.
Is it an American custom
to wear the ring of the ex-wife?
No, no, no. I just wear it because, uh-
Because you still love her?
Wait. No, no, no.
You don't understand.
Let me explain.
Uh...
Well, she, uh,
she died a few years ago.
I'm sorry.
No, no.
I should go.
No, no.
Please tell me your name.
Ursula.
Ursula.
I'm Robert.
Nice to meet you, Robert.
Well, look, I'd really love to
see you again.
Can I have your number?
DR. KAHN:
So you blanked outcompletely, like last time?
VICKI:
Yes.Do you recall anything this time?
Nothing.
Well, think and tell me
what you do remember.
It was a few days ago.
I was in the kitchen.
Mihail had left for work.
The next thing I remember
it was night time.
I'm in bed.
I hadn't shown up for work all day.
And you don't remember anything
that happened that day?
Nothing.
The next morning when I woke up,
I was so exhausted,
I could hardly get out of bed.
Are you still having the headaches?
[screaming]
Are you still having the headaches?
Sometimes.
- Have you heard of syncope?
- No.
It's complete loss of consciousness,
interruption of awareness
of one's self and surroundings.
If you feel yourself blanking out
again, it's simple.
Just take deep breaths.
Deep breaths.
All right.
Mr. Diggs.
A couple of people I want you to meet.
Officer Aleksander Mulichev,
Officer Greg Ospasov.
Sofia's best,
and they both speak English.
[speaking Bulgarian]
Gregor Ospasov. A pleasure.
Great to meet you.
Please call me Aleks.
They're gonna give you all the help
that local law enforcement can provide.
They're good guys.
Trust them with your life.
[speaking Bulgarian]
The deceased is an explosives expert,
affiliated with Islamic Jihad.
Of course.
The killer shot the dog, also.
This is the 12th connected killing
you've seen in six months?
Yeah, that's right,
and just one piece
of forensic evidence,
a Romanian brand of cigarette butt
with lipstick
was found on the sidewalk
near one of the killings.
There is also a melted VHS tape
Completely clean. Untraceable.
Unknown origin.
DIGGS:
So, now we've gota long-range sniper killing.
Any forensic evidence
at the shooter's post?
Gunshot residue, hairs,
fibers, shells, anything?
We're working on it.
Sifting the dirt.
[speaking Bulgarian]
600 meters.
Robert Diggs. U.S. Embassy.
I'm gonna go take a look.
Robert?
Nah. If that were the case,
somewhere over here in this proximity.
No, the killer let him finish his prayer,
and then hit when he stood up
and was just about to turn.
That's why the body wound up here.
So that means the shots
didn't come from there.
They came from there.
Huh?
Hey, look at this.
Marks from a rifle stand, huh?
[breathing heavily]
[laughing]
[bell chimes]
[gasping]
Vicki.
[speaking Bulgarian]
[speaking Bulgarian]
Vicki...
Oh, I completely understand.
Hey, look, I'll have to
call you right back, okay?
This is all they were able to retrieve
from the VHS tape?
Sorry, it was too damaged.
- Even with the enhancement?
- Even with.
[speaking Bulgarian]
This just came in.
We've gone international.
The press picked on the Jinn murders.
Son of a b*tch.
Have you seen this?
It's not my fault.
This was leaked by your friends back home.
Sit down.
I told them I thought they were nuts,
but they said that they wanted
the world to know
that they had their best man
on the case.
With all due respect, sir,
to compromising the investigation?
I'm a political appointee.
I have this job
because I gave the president's
election committee a bag of money.
I don't get to make decisions.
They want this out there,
well, it's out there.
The best case I can suggest is,
maybe it'll rouse up a person of interest.
I don't know.
They're desperate. I told you that.
You think tipping our hand like this
Robert, I am the messenger.
Don't shoot me.
They didn't like your fried videotape,
so they said they were going with this.
I have car dealerships at home.
I can get you a great deal on wheels,
but I have to admit I'm a little bit
over my head on this stuff.
Bulgaria was not the post I wanted.
I was hoping for Paris.
That's what they hinted at, Paris.
Oh, maybe I didn't give them
enough money.
I don't know. [sighs]
Your guys want results, Robert.
