The Sentinel Page #5

Deadly against any low-altitude aircraft,

including jets, prop planes and helicopters.

But that comes from witnesses.

It has not been confirmed by investigators.

Again, these pictures coming to us

about a half mile...

Well, it sure doesn't look like

you're here to bury the hatchet.

You're being investigated for treason.

- What are you talk...

- Step back.

- Excuse me?

- Step back.

- Hey, Jill.

- Pete.

- Matt.

- Pete.

Sorry for the intrusion, sir.

If I failed the polygraph,

then why am I still on duty?

Director didn't want to arrest one of the guys

responsible for saving Reagan's life

without a little more evidence.

How long you been working

for the Barranquilla Cartel?

What are you talking about?

Hugo, can you come in here, please?

Pete Garrison,

Special Agent Ortega with the FBI.

What were you doing

at the Las Palmas Coffee Shop?

- I was having a cup of coffee.

- Takes you four hours to have a cup of coffee?

I was killing a few hours at a coffee shop.

Is there a problem with that?

Tom DiPaola said he called you four times.

You never returned any of his messages.

And that you almost missed

the Marine One flight yesterday.

They moved the flight up two hours.

I was in the coffee shop.

It was noisy. I couldn't hear my cell phone.

Now, what is this, all right?

What the hell are you doing following me?

Las Palmas Coffee Shop is a dead drop

for the Barranquilla Cartel.

You screwed up, Pete.

You walked into a stakeout.

I wanna know your number one

go-to guy at the cartel.

And I wanna know how you were

gonna help them kill the president.

Why would I want to kill the president?

- What motive do I have?

- I don't know, Pete.

To be honest with you, I don't care.

I know what the evidence is telling me.

I have given my entire life

to the Secret Service.

I've gotten up at 4:00 a.m.

every goddamn morning.

So, is that what this is about?

You're bitter after all your years of service

that they didn't make you director?

Oh, no, no, no. Don't confuse your

own ambition with mine. Okay, Dave?

Come on, Pete. Think about it.

People would understand that.

I mean, Jesus Christ, you took a bullet

for the president of the United States.

And in the 25 years since,

you haven't even made shift supervisor

on a presidential detail,

and that I know you wanted.

But they don't put guys that bend

the rules, not even a little bit,

in charge of PPD, do they?

Even if they did take a bullet for the old man.

Is that your professional or personal opinion?

- Because I think this whole thing

- Come on, Pete.

- is getting a little personal, all right?

- We got you nailed to the wall.

I didn't have an affair with Cindy.

- This has nothing to do with Cindy.

- I never did that thing,

- and you can't accept that.

- This isn't about...

We are not talking about that!

We're talking about it all the time,

even when we're not talking about it!

You can't look at me

without thinking about it!

- Jesus Christ, Pete, you better get a grip.

- I got a grip.

You think I wrecked your marriage, and

it has completely clouded your judgment.

I am following the evidence,

and it is overwhelming.

The polygraph. Las Palmas Coffee Shop.

You had unfettered access to Marine One.

It was hit by a missile for Christ's sake!

It was hit by a missile, because the flares

and the four other countermeasures

were disengaged!

There was a hundred other people

who had access to it.

Explain to me about the bank account.

- The what?

- Your signature's all over the paperwork.

I'm being framed.

- Come on, Pete. Tell me that's not your signature.

- Think about it!

I'm the guy that initiated this investigation.

Why would I do that,

if I wanted to kill the president?

You initiated this investigation

for a traitor in our department,

so that when the assassination

actually took place,

- you'd be at the bottom of the list of suspects.

- Oh, Jesus Christ, I can't believe that.

- I'm being framed! Goddamn it!

- Why don't you cut the bullshit, Pete?

- Just think about it, all right?

- I wanna know where,

- You take me in, that's the end.

- how and when are they coming for us.

That guy is out there somewhere!

The director just rolled up outside.

You better start thinking about cooperating.

He's in the car.

- What are you doing, Pete?

- Getting a glass of water.

Director's come all the way

down here to see me, huh?

- That's very impressive.

- It's embarrassing for us, sir.

- You want a beer?

- Look, Pete, we're really...

Garrison back door.

Oh, sh*t!

Pete!

Pete!

Where is he?

Sorry.

This is Breckinridge. Garrison has escaped

from the rear of the residence into the alley.

Cordon off the area and get back to me.

- He got my radio.

- He got my gun too.

He got your gun?! And your radio?

What the hell are you looking at her for?

She's been here two days.

How long have you been here?

Where to, mister?

Just get me out of here.

Now, I know it's very hard for you to believe

that Pete Garrison could be involved

with something like this.

For most of you he's a friend.

To some, a legend.

But the fact is the evidence

against him is overwhelming.

So, how do we find him?

To begin with, know this.

He is smarter and more

experienced than all of you.

You've never trained for this.

You are chasing your worst nightmare.

He knows how you think. He knows what

you know. And he knows how you operate.

And he will use that against you.

He also knows that it's gonna

be very difficult for you

to pull the trigger,

if you have him in your sights.

So I want you to take a second

and visualize that.

Because there is a very good chance

that is exactly how this is going to end.

- Can I have one of these here?

- Yeah, sure. Take it.

Fullback, Backstop.

Do you have an arrival?

Backstop, Fullback. We have arrival.

- Backstop.

- Go.

DiPaola to Command. Cincinnati

wrapping up. We're alpha for departure.

I miss the good old days. Do you know

what I mean? I mean, I really literally...

When the smokes clears, he taps him

on the back, and the bear says...

"You didn't come here to hunt, did ya?"

Get it? The bear.

That's not funny, man.

That joke ain't funny at all.

- Fullback. We're moving.

- Roger that. We're set up.

See you later, okay? Be right back.

Thank you.

- Welke, DiPaola. Cincinnati's coming to you.

- Copy that.

Ma'am.

What are you doing here?

I heard you were arrested for the helicopter.

Whatever you hear about me in the next

few days, I want you to know I was framed.

- I had to tell you to your face.

- No, you don't. No, you don't.

- We're gonna get out of this.

- How?

- I haven't figured that out yet.

- This is out of control.

- You've got to turn yourself in.

- No, no, no, no.

Yes, you do. I'll go to John.

- I'll tell him everything.

- I can't let you do that. No!

Pete, they think you're an assassin.

They will kill you.

- You can cover my back.

- How?
