You're a gypsy, right?

Madam, I'm an independent contractor

with 14 years' experience.

Okay. No medallion? No radio either?

Please, I want no trouble

with the police.

That makes two of us.

- 500 bucks for the night.

- In cash, plus gas.

- It's New Year's Eve.

- Okay. Let's go.

I have an address in lower Manhattan.

Red, increase 3%.

Green, maintain present level.

Yellow, reduce 1%.

Bit too slow, but maintain levels.

And stop.

Lock the cylinders.

Don't worry about the tanks or equipment,

but make sure you pack up everything else.

I'm going to look after the loading.

- Take the BQE to the Brooklyn bridge.

- Very good.

You like TV? We have TV.

This is a live shot of preparations

for tonight's New Year's Eve

celebrations in Times Square.

As you can see, the famous

New Year's Eve ball,

which is displayed year round,

is not in place.

It has been taken down for some

last-minute checks on the new LED lights.

Wait.

It has almost 3,000 waterproof crystals,

ranging between

four and five inches each,

and will be illuminated

by over 32,000 LEDs.

To prevent the ball from overheating,

a coolant gas is piped into the ball

just before it is attached to the pole.

Change of plan. Take me to Times Square.

Paperwork?

All right. You're good to go.

- Thank you. Happy New Year.

- You too, sir.

Can't you go any faster?

Go.

Sorry, ma'am.

This whole area is closed off.

Great. I'm just gonna get out here.

Thanks.

Oh, my God.

No. No.

Hurry.

Come on.

Can I help you, ma'am?

The guys that just came in,

where'd they go?

Uh, 1501.

Come on, come on.

Help! I need the cops. Someone call 911.

We have to go.

We have less than five minutes.

You just had to be here.

I've been waiting 10 years

for this moment,

to see the Americans pay

for what they have done.

- How far will the explosion travel?

- Not this far.

Good.

No.

B*tch! Come on.

Come on.

F*** you.

Kate...

Ten, nine, eight, seven,

six, five,

four, three, two, one.

Time's up.

Happy New Year!

- Freeze!

- Don't move!

Abbott.

Abbott, it's for you.

Hello?

- I always liked your instincts.

- Oh, Sam.

You're alive.

Yeah. You, too, from what I hear.

Mostly.

So I guess this is what

we're doing with our lives.

Yeah,

it is.

Kate, there were over a million people

out there tonight,

and you saved them all.
