Don't release him!
-It's a set up!
Control! Control, come in.
There's no response from control.
-I just spoke with them.
-Do we find that shooter (?)
-This never should've happened.
Except that it did.
And it happened on our watch.
I can't live with that.
We better find him.
Sir, we need your camera. -Sure.
Where's the zoom? -Right here.
Right there, that's where the flutter was.
The shot was up, to the left.
You saw the shooter? -No.
But I saw something
like flash of light.

-I'll check it out.
I'm coming with you. -No, no!
If you're wrong,
let me take the heat.
Sir, did you film this entire thing?
-Yes. -Show me.
I think I have a shooter on tape.
Go forward.
Oh my God!

Surprised to see me alive?
It's amazing!
What are you seeing?
-Oh, you speak english.
-That's right.
I was just watching...
people over there.
Hi, my name is Sam, nice to meet you.
-Howard Lewis, nice to meet you too.
American? -Yeah.
Wow! What brings you here?
Just... looking for little excitement.
First time, eh?
-In Europe? Yeah.
I just felt like it was a right
time. What about you?
I go where the moment takes me.
That must be nice.
No family, right?
No, none that I know of.
What changed me is
kids running around.
-Are yours with you?
-No, they are with their mother.
We got in a sort of a
I decided to get away for a while...
-I'm sorry.
-It's fine, it's fine.
I think it's my cue.
-Yeah, it was nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you too. Best of luck.
Yeah, you too.
-Tell your name. -Anna.
-That's a pretty name.
You look about the same
age as my son Nathan.
Can I buy her another cone?
-Oh, no, it's okay. Thank you.
-No, really, it's no problema.
No, thank you very much.
Anna, I'm sorry.
... president Ashton.
Welcome.
Thank you so much for being here.
This is a wondrous day.
Today we make history.
It is with great pleasure that I
invite you all to our humble city.
The hopes of the world are with us.
We must act together.
What is happening?
What's he doing?
Get him out of here!
-Let me go! -What the hell
were you doing up there?
-Answer my god damn question!
-Veronica!
Veronica!
We have to go!
Please, listen to me!
-Calm down.
-We have to go!
-Wait... -Step away, sir.
-She threw something!
-A gun. It's loaded.
-Hey, back up! -Listen to me,
he's telling the truth!
Veronica! Veronica!
Hi, leave a message.
-Bev, it's me.
You're gonna see on the news
when you wake up in the morning,
that the president has been shot.
He was here, in Spain.
And I think I just saw
the guy who did it.
Look, I'm all right, I just
want you to let the kids know
that I'm fine, and that I love
them very much and...
and I think I got it all on tape.
I don't know what to do...
Sir, we need your camera. -Sure.
-Where's the zoom?
-Press this button right here.
That's... that's where the flutter was.
The shot was up, to the left.
-You saw the shooter?
-I saw something, like a flash of light.
It was... right there, there was
something in that window right there!
-I saw a man in that window, sir.
-I'll go check it out.
I'm coming with you. -No, no!
If you're wrong,
let me take the heat.
Sir, did you film this entire thing?
-Yes. -Show me.
I think I have a shooter on tape.
Go forward.
Oh my God!
Oh my God!
There's a bomb in the podium!
Medics! We need medics here!
Anna!
Anna!
Where is your mother?
Where is she?
I gotta get you somewhere safe,
then we'll find your mother.
I need your help. I need you
to watch her, okay? All right?
Her mother is gone,
I don't know where she is.
-She'll be safe with me, don't worry.
-I'll be right back, all right?
I'll be right back. Wait for me.
-Take me with you!
I got to help the police.
Just stay with this lady
and I'll be back when I find your mom.
I'll be right back, okay? I swear.
I'll be right back.
Get out the way!
Mom?
Police! Get out the way!
Police! Move!
Police! Police!
He's a cop.
Freeze!
They shot him.
They shot him.
Mom!
Anna!
Mom! Mom!
When exactly do you think
the changes will be ready?
It's not like I have to
make the speech now.
I suppose I can just wing it, how much
trouble can I really get myself into?
Thing is, we both
know my limitations.
-Are we stopping?
-Yes sir.
Luke, I'll call you back.
NSA has just confirmed the threat.
Control handover complete.
-Roger that.
Where is Phil? -At the hotel.
He's now at the joined chiefs.
He's sending a double. -Yeah.
Delivering Potus to the hotel.
Control, reversing the car,
Potus is returning.
We're going to issue a statement
to the press that we'll be defering...
Defering, that's great.
Today of all days...
