A.P.B. (2016) s01e12 Episode Script
Ricochet
1 Previously on APB That call I made it was to a cell phone attached to a bomb.
DISTORTED VOICE: Gideon Reeves, an unelected fascist technocrat accountable to no one.
- (Gideon laughs) - He's a guy with a lot of secrets.
And today those secrets come out.
Did you even consult a lawyer before you shot a man with a drone? GIDEON: We both know that this is as much about the fact that your ex-wife works here.
This is a crowbar.
Just plug it in to the district servers.
It'll pry open an encrypted back door for me to do my thing.
- I'm not doing that! - Yes, you are.
(siren chirps, man grunts) (tires screech) Where'd that car come from? BRANDT: I don't know, Squad.
Out of nowhere.
I'd say they got somebody on a computer looking out for them, too.
(beeping) - What is that? - Secret lab.
1309, Squad, we have three armed assailants approaching Gideon's house.
The stuff that I work on down here is highly experimental.
And completely illegal! The guy in the mask might be crazy, but he's not wrong.
On the ground! Get on the ground now! GIDEON: They're about to get it.
(shouts) Mask off, gloves off.
Game on.
Come and get me.
ANNOUNCER (on TV): Drives down the lane.
Beautiful pass! Come on! Come on! Come on! Damn it.
Fakes left and goes right along the baseline.
Either pass the damn ball or shoot the three.
(static) What the hell is? Yeah, this is base, yeah? We got a problem with the video surveillance.
(static) Oh, great.
The radio's down, too? - (footsteps approaching) - Can I help you? No.
Fear gripped the city as reports came in to police districts across Chicago of possible terror attacks.
Turns out those attacks were well-orchestrated hoaxes targeting the controversial 13th district of the city, headed by maverick billionaire Gideon Reeves.
Many are pointing to this video, posted online before the attacks, criticizing Reeves.
DISTORTED VOICE: An unelected, fascist technocrat accountable to no one has trampled rights and declared war on this city.
Authorities are still searching for suspects, and sources say the 13th district has received credible threats of further attacks.
Meanwhile, Mayor Salgado is pointing the finger in another direction, singling out Reeves personally.
Gideon Reeves has turned our city into a target, and once and for all, he should be held accountable.
He's serious.
I've already had two calls from City Hall.
He's going after us? That He knows that we were the ones that got attacked, right? Did you mention that? All he sees is a chance to send you packing.
The assistant state's attorney is already here, waiting to help with your luggage.
Well, we have a terrorist to catch, right? - He tried to kill me.
- And me.
We need to talk about Ada.
- That's a complicated situation.
- Is it? She confessed to working with a hacker.
The same hacker who tried to kill us.
- I know, but - But what? She should be in interrogation, not sitting in the ops center.
- She's a criminal.
- That's debatable.
This isn't.
She's not a cop.
I mean, am I wrong here? I'll admit the kid's grown on me, but, Gideon, we're sworn to uphold the law here, and she broke it.
No question Ada did some things that she should not have.
She was trying to help.
- She saved lives.
- But she took one to do it.
Gideon, you and I have had this conversation.
Nobody gets to change the rules, not even if it's for a good reason.
Not you, not me, - and especially not Ada.
- Okay! Okay, yes, yes, yes, but reality check here.
We are going up against a hacker.
Not just any hacker.
A hacker that Ada personally knows.
So unless you're planning on getting a graduate degree in computer science in the next half hour, I mean, pretty sure we need her.
CONRAD: For now I'm inclined to agree.
Murph, Gideon's got to talk to the A.
S.
A.
We got a bad guy to catch.
I think it's best we get on it.
Murphy, hey, I really am so sorry about all of the You're sorry? It's a little late for that now, don't you think? Yeah.
Um When you and Gideon got here, I defended you.
I trusted you.
Then you turn around and stab us in the back like this? You put everything that we worked for at risk.
So what the hell good is your sorry gonna do when this district is shut down? Yeah, I thought so.
Now I have a suspect to interrogate.
And if it wasn't for Gideon, it would be you.
Mayor Salgado wants the 13th district to stand down, effective immediately.
Ah, so, what? We're just supposed to walk away? The mayor realizes we're actually doing a job, right? Is he gonna order all the criminals to stand down as well? He's getting approval from the city council for an injunction, giving the 12th district control of the 13th.
The leadership you, the captain will be suspended.
You have been after the 13th since I got here.
No, no, no.
This isn't about me.
This is about your arrogance.
Yes, yes, yes, that is true.
You are right.
I was.
I was arrogant.
Danny Reghabi, DV8, whatever he's called he's coming after the 13th 'cause of me, but you know what else is true? We are dealing with a very dangerous person.
And we are the only district that could even begin to handle him.
So, if you have to I don't know arrest me, shoot me, whatever, knock yourself out.
As long as I'm here, I have a job to do.
According to your prints, you're Jack Nagle.
Priors for armed robbery, assault and being a dumbass crook in general, so, you want to tell me how you ended up working for Danny Reghabi? - I'm sorry.
DV8.
- Nope.
Here's the deal.
We got you on attempted murder, home invasion and weapons charges, all on video.
So unless you want to die in prison, start talking.
(indistinct radio transmission) GIDEON: Ah, I see Murphy's working her magic.
How'd it go with the A.
S.
A.
? Huh? Oh, just a misunderstanding.
He's buying me a lobster at Shaw's, hanging my portrait at City Hall.
How's the interrogation going? I've seen better.
Ada, bring up the biometric chair feed.
How do you know Danny Reghabi? I'm not telling you a damn thing.
He's got to be protecting someone.
Probably himself.
Danny is frighteningly good at getting to anyone, any time, anywhere.
Ooh, hear that, Murph? Sounds like this guy's more scared of our psycho hacker than he is of going to jail.
That might be something you can use, huh? Do you really think keeping your mouth shut's gonna keep you safe? Do you have any idea what Danny can do to you if we don't catch him? We can't protect you in jail.
GIDEON: Yeah.
Spiking him there, Murph.
Let him have it.
All it takes is one digital favor to the Aryan Nation, and you're bleeding out in the showers with a swastika carved into your back.
- You can't do that.
- It won't be us doing anything.
Your only hope is if we catch this guy.
Maybe he'll forgive you, let you walk away.
I mean, I don't know.
You know him more than I do.
I don't know much, okay? (sighs) I'm listening.
We were supposed to meet him at a train yard at 52nd and Western.
The job paid 50 grand a piece.
That's it.
That's all I know.
I'm gonna give you a little pro tip.
Next time you take a job from a psychopath, I'd ask more questions.
We got to check out that train yard.
I'm taking every available unit and heading out there now.
Wait.
You are? That son of a bitch came after you, he came after Murphy.
Hell, he came after all of us.
It's time I got out on the streets, made my feelings known.
(sirens blaring) You know, you're the captain.
You could've taken one of the Caddies.
Hey, I let you put a camera in it, didn't I? Call me old-fashioned, but I like my ride just fine.
1309, Squad.
Listen, you have to be careful.
I've seen what this guy can do, and he's not messing around.
Copy that, 1309.
Neither are we.
BRANDT: Easy there, crusher.
Me and Goss are the only two cops who have ever come close to busting this guy.
We're getting first crack at him.
CONRAD: I don't care who nails DV8.
We got to work together, keep our eyes open.
God only knows how he's gonna come at us.
(tires screeching) Captain! 1309, Squad, we need an ambulance! Conrad! Conrad, you okay? Brandt, help me out with this! You two, go check the other cars! Dude just ran right through a red light.
(grunts) No, he didn't.
Brandt, look.
They're all green.
Squad, do you see this? What the hell is going on?! I'm trying to get into the transportation system, but something's wrong.
That's putting it mildly.
Someone has hacked the entire transportation grid.
Someone? Murphy it's him.
Oh, I think his ribs are broken.
All right, all right.
We got you, Captain, right here.
What the hell is that? I don't know.
I found it in the back of the cruiser.
It's space bandages or something.
FEMALE VOICE: Please indicate your emergency.
Place the dressing labeled A-15 on the wound - and apply - (horn honks, cars crash) Check the patient for internal bleeding Hey, hey, hey, you stay there! You back up! Come on! Back up! - Cobb, this is crazy.
- (tires screech, cars crash) Oh, man.
- You okay? Okay.
- I'm good.
I'm good.
1309, Squad, we got multiple car accidents.
We need medical assistance now! I see you, you bastard.
Paramedics are on the way, 1309, but they're gonna be a while.
We have crashes across 30 blocks.
Ada, there has to be a way into that system.
Yes, normally there would be, but this hack isn't at the central computer.
He must have hardwired his way into one of the field offices.
How would he do that? Because he has a small piece of hardware called a "crowbar," and it punches a back door through any system that it's wired into.
Like the thing he used to hack Gideon's servers.
Yes, and that's how he learned all of his secrets.
That's it.
I am gonna rip this guy a new (yelling) Hey, hey, hey.
- Captain, Captain.
- (groans) Computer thing says you got to lay down.
Look, I don't take orders from some talking first aid kit.
Besides, a lot of people got bigger problems than me right now.
- Cap, we need to get you help.
- I got you.
I got you.
(grunts) No.
A lot more people gonna get hurt if we don't figure this out quick.
1309, Squad, how can we figure out something to do with this traffic situation? Somebody has to get over to the district transit authority, find whatever they have wired into the system, - and - Smash the hell out of it? Once again, you read my mind.
All right.
I need you two to get to the district transit office and do whatever it takes to get back online.
- I'm not leaving the captain.
- Hey.
I made my first bust when you two were in diapers.
Don't make the mistake of disobeying orders.
Now go.
Come on.
Yes, sir.
Cap, are you sure you're all right? As long as you get out there and shut this guy down, I'll be just fine.
- Take care of him.
- All right? (grunts) Damn.
Mr.
Reeves Oh, good, you're still here.
I was hoping that you would stick around to kick us while we're down.
You want to tell me what's going on? Be a lot easier to tell you what's not going on.
Um, we're trying to keep the entire district from falling apart.
Your ex is leading the charge.
(siren wailing) So, what am I supposed to tell the mayor? That he's ugly.
That he's bald.
Oh, how about this? How about this? Tell him we have a district-wide cyber attack on our infrastructure.
And if he knows anything about massively parallel information processing systems we could use his help.
Otherwise, he should probably just stick to pounding his desk and blaming me for everything.
(siren wails) (tires screeching) GOSS: Man, I've seen a lot of Chicago traffic, but never like this.
You good? No.
Captain was hurt back there, and we just walked off.
- Just left him.
- Because he ordered us to.
Yeah, well, I don't care.
I don't like it.
- Don't like any of it.
- I can see that.
I screwed up.
I saw that car, I saw it coming.
Just going too fast.
He was going straight for the captain.
Oh, come on.
You couldn't have known that that car You don't know that.
You don't know that.
I ju I froze.
It was a car going 45 miles an hour.
It-It was chaos all around.
There was no way Which is exactly why I should have been on my game.
I've seen this before.
I've seen I've seen this overseas.
Some guy, he gets distracted, can't do his job, people get hurt.
Brandt, listen to me.
You're not "some guy," all right? You're my partner, and right now we got a job to do.
So I'm gonna need you to pull it together.
Yeah roger that.
(sniffles) Squad, we're en route to the transportation department now.
Copy, 1305.
Keep us posted.
All right.
I checked all the police servers.
I didn't find any crowbars, router taps, - or any other hardware hacks.
- All right, all right, good.
Maybe we've at least cleaned up DV8's digital rat droppings here at the station.
Hey, Murph, how's it going out there? We're approaching the area, Squad, but there's gonna be a hell of a lot of ground to cover.
Okay.
We got more units on the way.
We're gonna use the drones as a perimeter.
Copy.
The train yard our suspect identified is up here.
(siren stops, engine shuts off) Gideon.
Gideon, the car just went dead on me.
GIDEON: What? It what? I repeat, the car is dead.
What? Get get all the body cams up.
1312, Squad, we're S.
O.
L.
, too.
Oh how the hell is he doing this?! Some kind of remote hack into our electrical systems.
He did the same thing to me a few weeks ago.
I thought we were protected against those kind of hacks.
Once again, under normal circumstances, we would be.
But I wrote the software.
Danny and I had the same teacher, and he knows all of my tricks and then some.
So is anyone still rolling out there? No, Gideon.
He shut them all down.
Murphy, I don't know what to tell you.
Looks like we've had a security breach of our own.
If he's coming at us this hard, we have to be close.
We'll move by foot.
Use the drones to monitor the area.
Let's just get them out.
Okay, we're posting them at major streets now.
Uh, what the hell? Gideon, what's going on? Pete, Pete, Pete.
Uh I don't know.
I don't know.
Some kind of malfunction.
Oh, I don't like the look of this.
Yeah.
For once, Rookie, I'm with you.
Gideon, is that you? That is definitely not me! Get down now! Gideon, we're under fire.
GIDEON: All right, all right.
Can you take cover in one of the cruisers? No, we're locked out.
There must be some kind of stronger control signal in the area overriding ours.
He's running the whole thing through an AES algorithm.
He's broken the signal encryption? How is DV8 doing any of this? Gideon, he's the only person I've ever met who might be smarter than you.
I need you to do everything you can to pinpoint DV8's location.
Pete, let go of that stick.
Earth to Pete! I need you to get every bit of jamming equipment we have into the van right now.
MURPHY: Reyes, Cobb, switch your guns to Taser.
Aim for the propellers! Oh, sure, Detective.
Aim for the little toy helicopter props a hundred feet away? (grunts) They're moving targets.
That's very observant, Rookie.
That also makes us sitting ducks.
All right, enough of this crap.
I'm gonna try something different.
- (screams) - Cobb! (yelling) (grunts) Go, Reyes.
I'll cover you.
(grunts) (grunts, pants) - Cobb.
- What? Come on, buddy, wake up.
Wake up.
If you try and give me mouth-to-mouth, I'm gonna shoot you myself.
(phones ringing) Hold, please.
Hold, please.
District 13.
Sergeant Charles.
How can I help you? Oh, yes, sir, Mr.
Mayor.
Hold one second, please.
Anybody seen Gideon? Hello.
I got the mayor on the line.
Somebody get me Gideon Reeves right now.
I'll take it.
I'll take it.
Mr.
Mayor, it's A.
S.
A.
Murphy.
I called for Gideon Reeves.
Yeah, I'm aware of that.
He's occupied.
Not for long.
I just got off the phone with Judge Barnett, and I've got a court order authorizing you to shut him down.
MURPHY: Squad, we're still under attack.
I'm afraid I can't do that, sir.
What the hell does that mean? Sir, with all due respect, it sounds like you want to stop Gideon Reeves more than the hacker going after him.
Now, that hacker may be pulling the trigger, but it's Reeves who put a target on this city's back.
Now, I want them both gone, and I want it done now.
Can you make that happen, Mr.
Murphy? No, sir, I can't.
My son's mother is out there, and she is in danger.
And right now Gideon Reeves is the only one that can help her.
So if you want to shut down the 13th, you're gonna have to do it yourself.
That's the sexiest thing I've seen all day.
MAN: I clearly had the right of way.
That light was green.
How much farther to transit authority? About a half hour on foot.
How about we don't do it on foot? Right here.
(knocking on window) Chicago Police.
What? Did I do something wrong? No, sir, but you can do something right.
Police emergency.
We need to borrow your vehicle.
(engine revs) (tires screech) (tires screech) Oh.
Trying to assemble delicate electronics back here.
I know, I know.
But because of all the traffic jams, I'm trying to stick to the back streets.
I thought I told you to organize this van.
Why would you put radio transmitters next to solenoids? (laughing): Because they're in alphabetical order.
Who puts electronic parts in alphabetical order? Seriously? The same guy who's gonna smash a chair over his boss' head if he doesn't quit yelling at him.
All right, fair enough.
(car horn honks) (tires screech) Oh, God.
Okay, okay.
Ah.
What are you doing? Jamming the control signal so I can finally land these bad boys.
- Really? - You're damn right.
All right, but you owe me 250,000 bucks.
(sighs) DV8's got to be pretty close to be able to break the encryption on one of these.
Unfortunately, "close" isn't gonna do us a whole lot of good right now.
We need an exact location.
I might be able to help you with that.
If you send me the drone's radio signal log, I can use it to find out where it was being controlled from.
I like it.
He used our tech against us.
It's about damn time we used his against him.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay, Ada.
Now should be able to download the information from the signal that was used to take down those drones.
Yeah.
I'm hooking into our own network of radio towers now.
Should be able to find something shortly.
Are you sure you want to depend on her for this? Murphy, she can hear you right now.
I know.
GIDEON: Okay, okay.
She made mistakes.
I get it.
So have I, Murph.
Big juicy, terrible mistakes ever since I took over the 13th.
- That's not - Look.
I have been disrupting things all of my life in the name of success.
Aerospace, robotics I forced my kindergarten teacher into an early retirement.
But you know what every last one of those successes was built on? My failures.
I got where I am because I screwed up, Murph.
A whole lot.
I have a successful rocket company because I blew up a butt-load of rockets first.
And 'cause people like Ada stuck with me, even through those mistakes, all right? We're still a team.
All right.
- I'm with you.
- All right, good.
'Cause it's really freaking cold out here and I'm running out of big speech-y things to say, so ADA: Gideon, I think I found something.
Now that's what I want to hear.
Where is he? I that's the problem.
I don't know what kind of security protocol he's using.
And his transmission signal seems to be moving.
30 seconds ago, it was coming from Ashland, and now it's coming from 35th and Archer? What's he using, some kind of proxy setup? I mean, if he is, it's incredibly advanced.
- He's on a train.
- What? He's not using fancy software, Gideon.
He's on the 'L' train.
Ada, was he going southwest on Wabash? Yeah.
Yeah, he's on a train.
Now, see? Team.
Right? Ada, where can we find this guy? Okay.
If you guys head south, you can probably intercept him at the Dearborn train yard.
But I'm not gonna be able to pinpoint him closer than a few hundred feet.
GIDEON: Okay, one problem at a time.
Everyone, back to your posts now.
We got work to do.
- Ada.
- Hey.
What's the situation? Um, we might have a location for Danny Reghabi.
Good.
What about Brandt and Goss? Any progress getting the district moving again? It's hell out there.
Yes.
Th-they're approaching the transit building now.
CONRAD: 1305.
What's your status? BRANDT: 1305, Squad.
We had a, uh, transportation issue, but, uh, we worked it out.
Yeah, but it looks like the D-21 cops already beat us to the punch.
Hey.
What's going on? Security guard got killed.
Bullet to the back of the head.
Squad, District 21 is on-site investigating a homicide.
We're definitely in the right place, but we got no idea what we're looking for.
Okay.
What you're looking for is a telecom center.
It's gonna be away from the computers.
It's a place where sensitive electronics are wired up for transmission.
It's probably where DV8 was able to hack with a small piece of hardware.
You sure he hasn't tapped into their computer? No.
The system is fine.
It's just that the, uh, signal keeps getting hijacked before it can make its way to the transportation grid.
Honey, I understand about a third of what you just said.
Just tell me where we're supposed to look.
I'm thinking if he killed a security guard, he must've needed to get inside the building, which means he's not doing anything on the ground floor.
There's a hell of a lot of crap up there.
Yep, which means a hell of a lot of ways to mess stuff up.
Let's go.
1309, what's your 20? GIDEON: We're getting close, Squad.
All right, my access to the district transpo system is limited, but my best guess is that you're looking for the train that came in on Track 7.
That train is scheduled to make a stop for a track change now.
Is-is there any way that you guys can make it? MURPHY: Already did.
There, there.
- It's got to be that one, right? - (air hissing) All right, listen up, we need to be careful.
This guy's been working on killing us since yesterday.
We give him another shot, he's not gonna hesitate.
ADA: Okay, guys, according to the system, this track change doesn't take very long, - so you don't have much time.
- You have to get a move on.
Right, 'cause we've been standing around all day? (train horn blows) Go! MURPHY: This car's empty.
Head for the side door.
Go, go, go! Come on.
(grunts) All aboard.
BRANDT: She was right, there's a hell of a lot of gak up here.
GOSS: "High voltage, keep out"? You got to be kidding me.
Ada didn't say anything about getting fried to death.
Now, what are we looking for, exactly? Something that looks like it doesn't belong in there.
Hey.
Hey.
You with me? Yeah.
Those are a lot of wires.
I don't even know where to start.
Wait, what's that? Right there, come here.
You see that? Is that it? This is not good, we got to call somebody, the power company, or We don't have that kind of time, people are getting hurt out there.
Ugh.
Okay.
All right, all right, I'm on it.
Now, it looks like the only way through is-is right here, but I don't, I don't have eyes on the damn thing.
No, no, no, no, I can see it from here.
But you're gonna have to make the reach, my arms aren't long enough.
- Are you serious? - I can guide you.
Look, we can do this, Brandt.
This is what the captain ordered us to do.
Look, come on, man, the longer we wait, the worse it's gonna get out there.
Come on.
Yeah, yeah.
(clears throat) (breathing heavily) Okay, uh lower your hand about half an inch.
A little higher.
Oh, stay-stay to the right, stay to the right.
Whoa, whoa, watch the wires.
- Watch the wi - (crackling, Brandt grunts) Damn it! Ah! Brandt, you okay? (shudders) Hey, hey.
(sighs heavily) You can do this.
You can do this.
(softly): Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
(breathing heavily) You got me? I got you.
Whoa, stay to the right.
There.
Uh, little higher.
There.
That's good, you're touching it.
You got it.
(grunting) Yes! Ah! (groans) Ah! (laughs) 1305, Squad.
Be advised, the transmitter's been located and neutralized.
- ADA: Yes! - (train horn blows) We have any idea where this guy is? He has to be in one of these cars.
How are we covering each other going through these doors? I didn't say it was gonna be easy.
You wait back here, Gideon.
I'm pretty much all-in on this one, Murph.
Hey, uh, Ada? I need you to get the cruisers to us soon as they're back online.
Oh, tell Pete to get me the jammer.
We're gonna need everything we got.
Yeah, without access to his system, that's not gonna do us much good.
Huh.
I think maybe I can help with that.
- Gideon, wait.
- No, no, no, no time to wait.
Okay, got his computers, yes.
So, looks like a wireless transmission system.
(lights buzzing) Well, look who's here.
Uh-uh.
That's enough.
Screw you.
(Taser crackles) Screw you.
(grunts) You like it? It's called a hot suit.
A lot of power company guys wear them when they're working on the lines.
The metal threading helps protect you from high voltage shock.
Oh, also cops who think they can trust a fascist billionaire's tech.
- Danny? - I prefer DV8, thanks.
And whatever you're about to tell me about putting my gun down or not making this worse for myself, you can save your breath.
Drop your guns.
Or the genius mind of Gideon Reeves gets splattered all over this train.
GIDEON: Okay, so just tell us what you want.
Oh, my friend, that list is long.
Well, you don't have much time.
What do you think, you're just gonna just ride in this train forever? You think we're actually gonna let you shoot him and just walk away? We're not gonna let you do that.
The thing is, you're not really in a great position to bargain, Officer Murphy.
And I've got myself a few billion dollars' worth of hostage here.
Captain, you're needed at the front desk.
- Not now.
- It's urgent, sir, the FBI is here.
(sighs) Ada, I'll be back soon as I can.
Okay, yeah.
Murphy, is there any way you can buy some time? I think I can stop the train.
Okay.
Let's just let's just calm down.
You have all the power here, so why don't you just tell us how this goes? Yeah.
Let's talk like rational okay, maybe not rational, all right? Intelligent, yes? Let's talk like intelligent human beings.
- Unbelievable.
- What? Even with a gun to your head, you can't keep your smart mouth shut? This whole 13th district experiment, it ends today.
In fact, it's already started.
So, Ada, if you're watching, tell the feds I say hi.
CONRAD: What the hell do you think you're doing? We have a warrant for her arrest.
Look, she is in the middle of dealing with a hostage situation.
And we're in the middle of an investigation.
We have information she was involved in multiple federal crimes.
I'm telling you, we have an authorization and a warrant.
CONRAD: Look, this is my personnel here.
This is my district! (sighs) What did you do? I held her accountable, that's all.
Now, you're angry with me.
Why punish Ada? 'Cause she's just as guilty as you are.
Maybe even more so.
She was one of us before she started helping you turn this city into your own little police state.
MURPHY (whispering): Please, Ada.
I'm trying to get into the transportation computers.
I'm working as fast as I can.
You're interfering in a case.
You're putting lives in danger.
She is in direct violation of a federal plea agreement.
Are you sure you want to thump your badge at us? Look, we're far from perfect.
But we're trying to protect people.
Is that right? Well, today they're gonna find out just how well-protected they are.
- They're all gonna know.
- How, exactly? Let's just say there's gonna be a little demonstration of just how powerless the mighty 13th district really is, Detective.
Look, you don't need to do this.
One more step and he dies.
CONRAD: Okay, wait, hold on, hold on.
- I need to talk - Adelaide Hamilton.
- You're under arrest.
- Okay, okay, okay, okay.
God, come on.
(beeping) (brakes screech) Drop it! You're under arrest.
And I'm not in Taser mode, smart-ass.
You got him? Yeah.
But now we have to stop him.
MURPHY: Just sit your ass right there.
We're not through with you yet.
What are all these for? Okay, without Ada here to help me sort it out, I'm not sure.
But this one was disabling the cruisers and I got those back online.
A lot of this stuff here looks like it was for hacking the drones.
And the rest? Well, that's what I'm worried about.
This one.
There's mapping software and some sort of servo control mechanism? - I-I - Meaning? It's for remotely controlling devices.
Oh, my God.
Look at this.
It's targeting software for an automated weapon.
What? Where is it? Uh hard to be 100% sure.
The mapping overlay is for downtown.
That's between Wacker and Michigan.
Gideon, that's where City Hall is.
- Can we stop it? - No.
No, it's it's an automated program.
It would take too long to break the encryption.
Then we'll break him.
We found your little surprise.
Turn it off now.
Why on earth would I do that? Don't dig yourself a deeper hole.
Oh, the hole isn't mine.
It's a grave for the 13th district.
I've thought a lot about this, Mr.
Reeves, how to end your experiment for good.
Nobody seems to mind the cops killing innocent people.
But I think a bloody corpse or two at City Hall might shake everybody's faith in the Gideon Reeves revolution, don't you? Please.
You've made your point.
No, I haven't.
Not until I bring your brave new world to an end.
MURPHY: He's stalling.
We need to get to downtown before it's too late.
- Enjoy the show.
- Shut the hell up.
(sirens approaching) Pump it up Pump it up Pump it up Put 'em in the a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-air Pump it up Pump it up Pump it up P-P-Pump it, pump it up Pump it up P-P-Pump it up P-P-Pump it up P-P-Pump it A-A-Air (siren wailing) Pump it up Put 'em in the a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-air.
Yes, this is Gideon Reeves.
I need to talk to Mayor Salgado immediately.
Wait, this is an emerg What are they saying? I'm listening to hold music.
SCOTT: Look, I'm just trying to say, Mr.
Mayor, now may not be the best time for a press conference.
SALGADO: Oh, it's the perfect time.
Take a look at this.
The city council just authorized that injunction.
The 12th district is taking over the 13th.
Listen, I was there.
I saw exactly what's going on.
And I saw Gideon trying to help.
He's trying to clean up a mess that he made.
AIDE: Mr.
Mayor? Mr.
Mayor, I have Gideon Reeves on the phone for you, sir.
Oh, speak of the bastard and he pops up.
Hey, Reeves.
Perfect timing, I was just about to go outside and tell your friends in the press that we're shutting you down.
Whatever you are doing, cancel it.
You are in danger.
(laughing): Nice try, Mr.
Reeves.
I'm serious.
You can't Uh, yes, I ca listen, you son of a bitch! I know that you think that your money gives you the right to tell everybody in this town what to do, but I'm here to tell you that you are sorely mistaken.
No, no, no, this is not about me! Oh, it's all about you, Mr.
Reeves.
It's about you finally getting what you deserve.
(siren wailing) (tires screech) I don't ah (groans) What happened? - The ass-hat hung up on me! - (car horns honking) (siren chirps) Gideon, we're not getting anywhere with this traffic.
All right, give me one sec.
Squad, this is Gideon.
Conrad, you there? CONRAD: What's left of me.
Captain, we need to get to City Hall.
Lights and sirens are not gonna cut it.
I hear you, but without Ada around GIDEON: I know, I know.
Just go to her computer.
- Gideon, I can't.
- You have to.
We got to clear this traffic.
There's no other way.
Listen, I I can barely check my e-mails, much less All right, well, I'm gonna talk you through it.
Okay, she's already in the the-the transportation department interface.
Tell me what's up on the screen right now.
CONRAD: Uh, "Rail system emergency braking.
" Good, good.
So, I need you to get to the main menu.
And get ready to rock and roll.
Go ahead now Pledge allegiance Should be a dialog box.
New alliance Ay-ay-ya Okay, and Click on it.
Click on that sub-menu.
I'm breaking this illusion The "yes" box.
This is a revolution I am the evolution There.
I am the revolution GIDEON: Got to get one block over.
MURPHY: Okay, hold on.
GIDEON: Uh, you know this is a sidewalk, right? And that is definitely a pedestrian.
Gideon, is it working? GIDEON: Affirmative, Captain.
You gave us the green light.
Evolution I am the evolution Good.
You two gonna make it? I hope so.
I am the revolution.
SALGADO: Thank you for coming.
(cameras snapping) As I'm sure you know, this has been a difficult day for the City of Chicago.
And we'll be sorting out exactly what happened for some time to come.
But right now one thing is painfully clear: the technological experiment launched in our 13th district by billionaire Gideon Reeves has failed.
(engine revs, tires screech) (siren wailing) What are you doing? The drones GIDEON: No, no, no, it's not for the drones.
Then what? Reeves has talked about making our city safer.
(motor whirring) The trouble is, his own ego, his own arrogance has gotten in the way.
All right, this jams electrical signals, right? So, DV8 has an automated sniper rifle out there.
If I can scramble the electronics, I might be able to stop it.
But I just need to remove the regulator circuits, so it transmits a wider range of frequencies.
Just spare me the details and make sure you fry that thing.
Reeves talks about improvements, he talks about revolution, he talks about disruption.
But where does he talk about the people impacted by his reckless reforms? Sure, the world is changing, and change is good.
But what happens when that change is too fast? (siren wailing) Go, get to the mayor! (system trills) Deep down inside, I was burning Chicago Police! Everybody down! Down! Everybody down! A ray of hope (crowd screaming) I couldn't find it Couldn't find it I was looking to the sky for an answer (gunshot) Crying up at the clouds Thinking maybe God Or somebody else would come and save me Save me Ooh (yells) Ooh Come and save me Ooh Ooh (system buzzes) Come and save me (Murphy groans) - Are you hurt? - No, I'm okay.
You? I'm fine, I'm fine.
(whimpers) I was pounding my fists on the pavement Murphy! Put my ear to the ground I couldn't hear a sound And it was like nobody Was gonna save me Save me We're too late.
No.
We're just getting started.
Come and save me, save me.
DISTORTED VOICE: Gideon Reeves, an unelected fascist technocrat accountable to no one.
- (Gideon laughs) - He's a guy with a lot of secrets.
And today those secrets come out.
Did you even consult a lawyer before you shot a man with a drone? GIDEON: We both know that this is as much about the fact that your ex-wife works here.
This is a crowbar.
Just plug it in to the district servers.
It'll pry open an encrypted back door for me to do my thing.
- I'm not doing that! - Yes, you are.
(siren chirps, man grunts) (tires screech) Where'd that car come from? BRANDT: I don't know, Squad.
Out of nowhere.
I'd say they got somebody on a computer looking out for them, too.
(beeping) - What is that? - Secret lab.
1309, Squad, we have three armed assailants approaching Gideon's house.
The stuff that I work on down here is highly experimental.
And completely illegal! The guy in the mask might be crazy, but he's not wrong.
On the ground! Get on the ground now! GIDEON: They're about to get it.
(shouts) Mask off, gloves off.
Game on.
Come and get me.
ANNOUNCER (on TV): Drives down the lane.
Beautiful pass! Come on! Come on! Come on! Damn it.
Fakes left and goes right along the baseline.
Either pass the damn ball or shoot the three.
(static) What the hell is? Yeah, this is base, yeah? We got a problem with the video surveillance.
(static) Oh, great.
The radio's down, too? - (footsteps approaching) - Can I help you? No.
Fear gripped the city as reports came in to police districts across Chicago of possible terror attacks.
Turns out those attacks were well-orchestrated hoaxes targeting the controversial 13th district of the city, headed by maverick billionaire Gideon Reeves.
Many are pointing to this video, posted online before the attacks, criticizing Reeves.
DISTORTED VOICE: An unelected, fascist technocrat accountable to no one has trampled rights and declared war on this city.
Authorities are still searching for suspects, and sources say the 13th district has received credible threats of further attacks.
Meanwhile, Mayor Salgado is pointing the finger in another direction, singling out Reeves personally.
Gideon Reeves has turned our city into a target, and once and for all, he should be held accountable.
He's serious.
I've already had two calls from City Hall.
He's going after us? That He knows that we were the ones that got attacked, right? Did you mention that? All he sees is a chance to send you packing.
The assistant state's attorney is already here, waiting to help with your luggage.
Well, we have a terrorist to catch, right? - He tried to kill me.
- And me.
We need to talk about Ada.
- That's a complicated situation.
- Is it? She confessed to working with a hacker.
The same hacker who tried to kill us.
- I know, but - But what? She should be in interrogation, not sitting in the ops center.
- She's a criminal.
- That's debatable.
This isn't.
She's not a cop.
I mean, am I wrong here? I'll admit the kid's grown on me, but, Gideon, we're sworn to uphold the law here, and she broke it.
No question Ada did some things that she should not have.
She was trying to help.
- She saved lives.
- But she took one to do it.
Gideon, you and I have had this conversation.
Nobody gets to change the rules, not even if it's for a good reason.
Not you, not me, - and especially not Ada.
- Okay! Okay, yes, yes, yes, but reality check here.
We are going up against a hacker.
Not just any hacker.
A hacker that Ada personally knows.
So unless you're planning on getting a graduate degree in computer science in the next half hour, I mean, pretty sure we need her.
CONRAD: For now I'm inclined to agree.
Murph, Gideon's got to talk to the A.
S.
A.
We got a bad guy to catch.
I think it's best we get on it.
Murphy, hey, I really am so sorry about all of the You're sorry? It's a little late for that now, don't you think? Yeah.
Um When you and Gideon got here, I defended you.
I trusted you.
Then you turn around and stab us in the back like this? You put everything that we worked for at risk.
So what the hell good is your sorry gonna do when this district is shut down? Yeah, I thought so.
Now I have a suspect to interrogate.
And if it wasn't for Gideon, it would be you.
Mayor Salgado wants the 13th district to stand down, effective immediately.
Ah, so, what? We're just supposed to walk away? The mayor realizes we're actually doing a job, right? Is he gonna order all the criminals to stand down as well? He's getting approval from the city council for an injunction, giving the 12th district control of the 13th.
The leadership you, the captain will be suspended.
You have been after the 13th since I got here.
No, no, no.
This isn't about me.
This is about your arrogance.
Yes, yes, yes, that is true.
You are right.
I was.
I was arrogant.
Danny Reghabi, DV8, whatever he's called he's coming after the 13th 'cause of me, but you know what else is true? We are dealing with a very dangerous person.
And we are the only district that could even begin to handle him.
So, if you have to I don't know arrest me, shoot me, whatever, knock yourself out.
As long as I'm here, I have a job to do.
According to your prints, you're Jack Nagle.
Priors for armed robbery, assault and being a dumbass crook in general, so, you want to tell me how you ended up working for Danny Reghabi? - I'm sorry.
DV8.
- Nope.
Here's the deal.
We got you on attempted murder, home invasion and weapons charges, all on video.
So unless you want to die in prison, start talking.
(indistinct radio transmission) GIDEON: Ah, I see Murphy's working her magic.
How'd it go with the A.
S.
A.
? Huh? Oh, just a misunderstanding.
He's buying me a lobster at Shaw's, hanging my portrait at City Hall.
How's the interrogation going? I've seen better.
Ada, bring up the biometric chair feed.
How do you know Danny Reghabi? I'm not telling you a damn thing.
He's got to be protecting someone.
Probably himself.
Danny is frighteningly good at getting to anyone, any time, anywhere.
Ooh, hear that, Murph? Sounds like this guy's more scared of our psycho hacker than he is of going to jail.
That might be something you can use, huh? Do you really think keeping your mouth shut's gonna keep you safe? Do you have any idea what Danny can do to you if we don't catch him? We can't protect you in jail.
GIDEON: Yeah.
Spiking him there, Murph.
Let him have it.
All it takes is one digital favor to the Aryan Nation, and you're bleeding out in the showers with a swastika carved into your back.
- You can't do that.
- It won't be us doing anything.
Your only hope is if we catch this guy.
Maybe he'll forgive you, let you walk away.
I mean, I don't know.
You know him more than I do.
I don't know much, okay? (sighs) I'm listening.
We were supposed to meet him at a train yard at 52nd and Western.
The job paid 50 grand a piece.
That's it.
That's all I know.
I'm gonna give you a little pro tip.
Next time you take a job from a psychopath, I'd ask more questions.
We got to check out that train yard.
I'm taking every available unit and heading out there now.
Wait.
You are? That son of a bitch came after you, he came after Murphy.
Hell, he came after all of us.
It's time I got out on the streets, made my feelings known.
(sirens blaring) You know, you're the captain.
You could've taken one of the Caddies.
Hey, I let you put a camera in it, didn't I? Call me old-fashioned, but I like my ride just fine.
1309, Squad.
Listen, you have to be careful.
I've seen what this guy can do, and he's not messing around.
Copy that, 1309.
Neither are we.
BRANDT: Easy there, crusher.
Me and Goss are the only two cops who have ever come close to busting this guy.
We're getting first crack at him.
CONRAD: I don't care who nails DV8.
We got to work together, keep our eyes open.
God only knows how he's gonna come at us.
(tires screeching) Captain! 1309, Squad, we need an ambulance! Conrad! Conrad, you okay? Brandt, help me out with this! You two, go check the other cars! Dude just ran right through a red light.
(grunts) No, he didn't.
Brandt, look.
They're all green.
Squad, do you see this? What the hell is going on?! I'm trying to get into the transportation system, but something's wrong.
That's putting it mildly.
Someone has hacked the entire transportation grid.
Someone? Murphy it's him.
Oh, I think his ribs are broken.
All right, all right.
We got you, Captain, right here.
What the hell is that? I don't know.
I found it in the back of the cruiser.
It's space bandages or something.
FEMALE VOICE: Please indicate your emergency.
Place the dressing labeled A-15 on the wound - and apply - (horn honks, cars crash) Check the patient for internal bleeding Hey, hey, hey, you stay there! You back up! Come on! Back up! - Cobb, this is crazy.
- (tires screech, cars crash) Oh, man.
- You okay? Okay.
- I'm good.
I'm good.
1309, Squad, we got multiple car accidents.
We need medical assistance now! I see you, you bastard.
Paramedics are on the way, 1309, but they're gonna be a while.
We have crashes across 30 blocks.
Ada, there has to be a way into that system.
Yes, normally there would be, but this hack isn't at the central computer.
He must have hardwired his way into one of the field offices.
How would he do that? Because he has a small piece of hardware called a "crowbar," and it punches a back door through any system that it's wired into.
Like the thing he used to hack Gideon's servers.
Yes, and that's how he learned all of his secrets.
That's it.
I am gonna rip this guy a new (yelling) Hey, hey, hey.
- Captain, Captain.
- (groans) Computer thing says you got to lay down.
Look, I don't take orders from some talking first aid kit.
Besides, a lot of people got bigger problems than me right now.
- Cap, we need to get you help.
- I got you.
I got you.
(grunts) No.
A lot more people gonna get hurt if we don't figure this out quick.
1309, Squad, how can we figure out something to do with this traffic situation? Somebody has to get over to the district transit authority, find whatever they have wired into the system, - and - Smash the hell out of it? Once again, you read my mind.
All right.
I need you two to get to the district transit office and do whatever it takes to get back online.
- I'm not leaving the captain.
- Hey.
I made my first bust when you two were in diapers.
Don't make the mistake of disobeying orders.
Now go.
Come on.
Yes, sir.
Cap, are you sure you're all right? As long as you get out there and shut this guy down, I'll be just fine.
- Take care of him.
- All right? (grunts) Damn.
Mr.
Reeves Oh, good, you're still here.
I was hoping that you would stick around to kick us while we're down.
You want to tell me what's going on? Be a lot easier to tell you what's not going on.
Um, we're trying to keep the entire district from falling apart.
Your ex is leading the charge.
(siren wailing) So, what am I supposed to tell the mayor? That he's ugly.
That he's bald.
Oh, how about this? How about this? Tell him we have a district-wide cyber attack on our infrastructure.
And if he knows anything about massively parallel information processing systems we could use his help.
Otherwise, he should probably just stick to pounding his desk and blaming me for everything.
(siren wails) (tires screeching) GOSS: Man, I've seen a lot of Chicago traffic, but never like this.
You good? No.
Captain was hurt back there, and we just walked off.
- Just left him.
- Because he ordered us to.
Yeah, well, I don't care.
I don't like it.
- Don't like any of it.
- I can see that.
I screwed up.
I saw that car, I saw it coming.
Just going too fast.
He was going straight for the captain.
Oh, come on.
You couldn't have known that that car You don't know that.
You don't know that.
I ju I froze.
It was a car going 45 miles an hour.
It-It was chaos all around.
There was no way Which is exactly why I should have been on my game.
I've seen this before.
I've seen I've seen this overseas.
Some guy, he gets distracted, can't do his job, people get hurt.
Brandt, listen to me.
You're not "some guy," all right? You're my partner, and right now we got a job to do.
So I'm gonna need you to pull it together.
Yeah roger that.
(sniffles) Squad, we're en route to the transportation department now.
Copy, 1305.
Keep us posted.
All right.
I checked all the police servers.
I didn't find any crowbars, router taps, - or any other hardware hacks.
- All right, all right, good.
Maybe we've at least cleaned up DV8's digital rat droppings here at the station.
Hey, Murph, how's it going out there? We're approaching the area, Squad, but there's gonna be a hell of a lot of ground to cover.
Okay.
We got more units on the way.
We're gonna use the drones as a perimeter.
Copy.
The train yard our suspect identified is up here.
(siren stops, engine shuts off) Gideon.
Gideon, the car just went dead on me.
GIDEON: What? It what? I repeat, the car is dead.
What? Get get all the body cams up.
1312, Squad, we're S.
O.
L.
, too.
Oh how the hell is he doing this?! Some kind of remote hack into our electrical systems.
He did the same thing to me a few weeks ago.
I thought we were protected against those kind of hacks.
Once again, under normal circumstances, we would be.
But I wrote the software.
Danny and I had the same teacher, and he knows all of my tricks and then some.
So is anyone still rolling out there? No, Gideon.
He shut them all down.
Murphy, I don't know what to tell you.
Looks like we've had a security breach of our own.
If he's coming at us this hard, we have to be close.
We'll move by foot.
Use the drones to monitor the area.
Let's just get them out.
Okay, we're posting them at major streets now.
Uh, what the hell? Gideon, what's going on? Pete, Pete, Pete.
Uh I don't know.
I don't know.
Some kind of malfunction.
Oh, I don't like the look of this.
Yeah.
For once, Rookie, I'm with you.
Gideon, is that you? That is definitely not me! Get down now! Gideon, we're under fire.
GIDEON: All right, all right.
Can you take cover in one of the cruisers? No, we're locked out.
There must be some kind of stronger control signal in the area overriding ours.
He's running the whole thing through an AES algorithm.
He's broken the signal encryption? How is DV8 doing any of this? Gideon, he's the only person I've ever met who might be smarter than you.
I need you to do everything you can to pinpoint DV8's location.
Pete, let go of that stick.
Earth to Pete! I need you to get every bit of jamming equipment we have into the van right now.
MURPHY: Reyes, Cobb, switch your guns to Taser.
Aim for the propellers! Oh, sure, Detective.
Aim for the little toy helicopter props a hundred feet away? (grunts) They're moving targets.
That's very observant, Rookie.
That also makes us sitting ducks.
All right, enough of this crap.
I'm gonna try something different.
- (screams) - Cobb! (yelling) (grunts) Go, Reyes.
I'll cover you.
(grunts) (grunts, pants) - Cobb.
- What? Come on, buddy, wake up.
Wake up.
If you try and give me mouth-to-mouth, I'm gonna shoot you myself.
(phones ringing) Hold, please.
Hold, please.
District 13.
Sergeant Charles.
How can I help you? Oh, yes, sir, Mr.
Mayor.
Hold one second, please.
Anybody seen Gideon? Hello.
I got the mayor on the line.
Somebody get me Gideon Reeves right now.
I'll take it.
I'll take it.
Mr.
Mayor, it's A.
S.
A.
Murphy.
I called for Gideon Reeves.
Yeah, I'm aware of that.
He's occupied.
Not for long.
I just got off the phone with Judge Barnett, and I've got a court order authorizing you to shut him down.
MURPHY: Squad, we're still under attack.
I'm afraid I can't do that, sir.
What the hell does that mean? Sir, with all due respect, it sounds like you want to stop Gideon Reeves more than the hacker going after him.
Now, that hacker may be pulling the trigger, but it's Reeves who put a target on this city's back.
Now, I want them both gone, and I want it done now.
Can you make that happen, Mr.
Murphy? No, sir, I can't.
My son's mother is out there, and she is in danger.
And right now Gideon Reeves is the only one that can help her.
So if you want to shut down the 13th, you're gonna have to do it yourself.
That's the sexiest thing I've seen all day.
MAN: I clearly had the right of way.
That light was green.
How much farther to transit authority? About a half hour on foot.
How about we don't do it on foot? Right here.
(knocking on window) Chicago Police.
What? Did I do something wrong? No, sir, but you can do something right.
Police emergency.
We need to borrow your vehicle.
(engine revs) (tires screech) (tires screech) Oh.
Trying to assemble delicate electronics back here.
I know, I know.
But because of all the traffic jams, I'm trying to stick to the back streets.
I thought I told you to organize this van.
Why would you put radio transmitters next to solenoids? (laughing): Because they're in alphabetical order.
Who puts electronic parts in alphabetical order? Seriously? The same guy who's gonna smash a chair over his boss' head if he doesn't quit yelling at him.
All right, fair enough.
(car horn honks) (tires screech) Oh, God.
Okay, okay.
Ah.
What are you doing? Jamming the control signal so I can finally land these bad boys.
- Really? - You're damn right.
All right, but you owe me 250,000 bucks.
(sighs) DV8's got to be pretty close to be able to break the encryption on one of these.
Unfortunately, "close" isn't gonna do us a whole lot of good right now.
We need an exact location.
I might be able to help you with that.
If you send me the drone's radio signal log, I can use it to find out where it was being controlled from.
I like it.
He used our tech against us.
It's about damn time we used his against him.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay, Ada.
Now should be able to download the information from the signal that was used to take down those drones.
Yeah.
I'm hooking into our own network of radio towers now.
Should be able to find something shortly.
Are you sure you want to depend on her for this? Murphy, she can hear you right now.
I know.
GIDEON: Okay, okay.
She made mistakes.
I get it.
So have I, Murph.
Big juicy, terrible mistakes ever since I took over the 13th.
- That's not - Look.
I have been disrupting things all of my life in the name of success.
Aerospace, robotics I forced my kindergarten teacher into an early retirement.
But you know what every last one of those successes was built on? My failures.
I got where I am because I screwed up, Murph.
A whole lot.
I have a successful rocket company because I blew up a butt-load of rockets first.
And 'cause people like Ada stuck with me, even through those mistakes, all right? We're still a team.
All right.
- I'm with you.
- All right, good.
'Cause it's really freaking cold out here and I'm running out of big speech-y things to say, so ADA: Gideon, I think I found something.
Now that's what I want to hear.
Where is he? I that's the problem.
I don't know what kind of security protocol he's using.
And his transmission signal seems to be moving.
30 seconds ago, it was coming from Ashland, and now it's coming from 35th and Archer? What's he using, some kind of proxy setup? I mean, if he is, it's incredibly advanced.
- He's on a train.
- What? He's not using fancy software, Gideon.
He's on the 'L' train.
Ada, was he going southwest on Wabash? Yeah.
Yeah, he's on a train.
Now, see? Team.
Right? Ada, where can we find this guy? Okay.
If you guys head south, you can probably intercept him at the Dearborn train yard.
But I'm not gonna be able to pinpoint him closer than a few hundred feet.
GIDEON: Okay, one problem at a time.
Everyone, back to your posts now.
We got work to do.
- Ada.
- Hey.
What's the situation? Um, we might have a location for Danny Reghabi.
Good.
What about Brandt and Goss? Any progress getting the district moving again? It's hell out there.
Yes.
Th-they're approaching the transit building now.
CONRAD: 1305.
What's your status? BRANDT: 1305, Squad.
We had a, uh, transportation issue, but, uh, we worked it out.
Yeah, but it looks like the D-21 cops already beat us to the punch.
Hey.
What's going on? Security guard got killed.
Bullet to the back of the head.
Squad, District 21 is on-site investigating a homicide.
We're definitely in the right place, but we got no idea what we're looking for.
Okay.
What you're looking for is a telecom center.
It's gonna be away from the computers.
It's a place where sensitive electronics are wired up for transmission.
It's probably where DV8 was able to hack with a small piece of hardware.
You sure he hasn't tapped into their computer? No.
The system is fine.
It's just that the, uh, signal keeps getting hijacked before it can make its way to the transportation grid.
Honey, I understand about a third of what you just said.
Just tell me where we're supposed to look.
I'm thinking if he killed a security guard, he must've needed to get inside the building, which means he's not doing anything on the ground floor.
There's a hell of a lot of crap up there.
Yep, which means a hell of a lot of ways to mess stuff up.
Let's go.
1309, what's your 20? GIDEON: We're getting close, Squad.
All right, my access to the district transpo system is limited, but my best guess is that you're looking for the train that came in on Track 7.
That train is scheduled to make a stop for a track change now.
Is-is there any way that you guys can make it? MURPHY: Already did.
There, there.
- It's got to be that one, right? - (air hissing) All right, listen up, we need to be careful.
This guy's been working on killing us since yesterday.
We give him another shot, he's not gonna hesitate.
ADA: Okay, guys, according to the system, this track change doesn't take very long, - so you don't have much time.
- You have to get a move on.
Right, 'cause we've been standing around all day? (train horn blows) Go! MURPHY: This car's empty.
Head for the side door.
Go, go, go! Come on.
(grunts) All aboard.
BRANDT: She was right, there's a hell of a lot of gak up here.
GOSS: "High voltage, keep out"? You got to be kidding me.
Ada didn't say anything about getting fried to death.
Now, what are we looking for, exactly? Something that looks like it doesn't belong in there.
Hey.
Hey.
You with me? Yeah.
Those are a lot of wires.
I don't even know where to start.
Wait, what's that? Right there, come here.
You see that? Is that it? This is not good, we got to call somebody, the power company, or We don't have that kind of time, people are getting hurt out there.
Ugh.
Okay.
All right, all right, I'm on it.
Now, it looks like the only way through is-is right here, but I don't, I don't have eyes on the damn thing.
No, no, no, no, I can see it from here.
But you're gonna have to make the reach, my arms aren't long enough.
- Are you serious? - I can guide you.
Look, we can do this, Brandt.
This is what the captain ordered us to do.
Look, come on, man, the longer we wait, the worse it's gonna get out there.
Come on.
Yeah, yeah.
(clears throat) (breathing heavily) Okay, uh lower your hand about half an inch.
A little higher.
Oh, stay-stay to the right, stay to the right.
Whoa, whoa, watch the wires.
- Watch the wi - (crackling, Brandt grunts) Damn it! Ah! Brandt, you okay? (shudders) Hey, hey.
(sighs heavily) You can do this.
You can do this.
(softly): Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
(breathing heavily) You got me? I got you.
Whoa, stay to the right.
There.
Uh, little higher.
There.
That's good, you're touching it.
You got it.
(grunting) Yes! Ah! (groans) Ah! (laughs) 1305, Squad.
Be advised, the transmitter's been located and neutralized.
- ADA: Yes! - (train horn blows) We have any idea where this guy is? He has to be in one of these cars.
How are we covering each other going through these doors? I didn't say it was gonna be easy.
You wait back here, Gideon.
I'm pretty much all-in on this one, Murph.
Hey, uh, Ada? I need you to get the cruisers to us soon as they're back online.
Oh, tell Pete to get me the jammer.
We're gonna need everything we got.
Yeah, without access to his system, that's not gonna do us much good.
Huh.
I think maybe I can help with that.
- Gideon, wait.
- No, no, no, no time to wait.
Okay, got his computers, yes.
So, looks like a wireless transmission system.
(lights buzzing) Well, look who's here.
Uh-uh.
That's enough.
Screw you.
(Taser crackles) Screw you.
(grunts) You like it? It's called a hot suit.
A lot of power company guys wear them when they're working on the lines.
The metal threading helps protect you from high voltage shock.
Oh, also cops who think they can trust a fascist billionaire's tech.
- Danny? - I prefer DV8, thanks.
And whatever you're about to tell me about putting my gun down or not making this worse for myself, you can save your breath.
Drop your guns.
Or the genius mind of Gideon Reeves gets splattered all over this train.
GIDEON: Okay, so just tell us what you want.
Oh, my friend, that list is long.
Well, you don't have much time.
What do you think, you're just gonna just ride in this train forever? You think we're actually gonna let you shoot him and just walk away? We're not gonna let you do that.
The thing is, you're not really in a great position to bargain, Officer Murphy.
And I've got myself a few billion dollars' worth of hostage here.
Captain, you're needed at the front desk.
- Not now.
- It's urgent, sir, the FBI is here.
(sighs) Ada, I'll be back soon as I can.
Okay, yeah.
Murphy, is there any way you can buy some time? I think I can stop the train.
Okay.
Let's just let's just calm down.
You have all the power here, so why don't you just tell us how this goes? Yeah.
Let's talk like rational okay, maybe not rational, all right? Intelligent, yes? Let's talk like intelligent human beings.
- Unbelievable.
- What? Even with a gun to your head, you can't keep your smart mouth shut? This whole 13th district experiment, it ends today.
In fact, it's already started.
So, Ada, if you're watching, tell the feds I say hi.
CONRAD: What the hell do you think you're doing? We have a warrant for her arrest.
Look, she is in the middle of dealing with a hostage situation.
And we're in the middle of an investigation.
We have information she was involved in multiple federal crimes.
I'm telling you, we have an authorization and a warrant.
CONRAD: Look, this is my personnel here.
This is my district! (sighs) What did you do? I held her accountable, that's all.
Now, you're angry with me.
Why punish Ada? 'Cause she's just as guilty as you are.
Maybe even more so.
She was one of us before she started helping you turn this city into your own little police state.
MURPHY (whispering): Please, Ada.
I'm trying to get into the transportation computers.
I'm working as fast as I can.
You're interfering in a case.
You're putting lives in danger.
She is in direct violation of a federal plea agreement.
Are you sure you want to thump your badge at us? Look, we're far from perfect.
But we're trying to protect people.
Is that right? Well, today they're gonna find out just how well-protected they are.
- They're all gonna know.
- How, exactly? Let's just say there's gonna be a little demonstration of just how powerless the mighty 13th district really is, Detective.
Look, you don't need to do this.
One more step and he dies.
CONRAD: Okay, wait, hold on, hold on.
- I need to talk - Adelaide Hamilton.
- You're under arrest.
- Okay, okay, okay, okay.
God, come on.
(beeping) (brakes screech) Drop it! You're under arrest.
And I'm not in Taser mode, smart-ass.
You got him? Yeah.
But now we have to stop him.
MURPHY: Just sit your ass right there.
We're not through with you yet.
What are all these for? Okay, without Ada here to help me sort it out, I'm not sure.
But this one was disabling the cruisers and I got those back online.
A lot of this stuff here looks like it was for hacking the drones.
And the rest? Well, that's what I'm worried about.
This one.
There's mapping software and some sort of servo control mechanism? - I-I - Meaning? It's for remotely controlling devices.
Oh, my God.
Look at this.
It's targeting software for an automated weapon.
What? Where is it? Uh hard to be 100% sure.
The mapping overlay is for downtown.
That's between Wacker and Michigan.
Gideon, that's where City Hall is.
- Can we stop it? - No.
No, it's it's an automated program.
It would take too long to break the encryption.
Then we'll break him.
We found your little surprise.
Turn it off now.
Why on earth would I do that? Don't dig yourself a deeper hole.
Oh, the hole isn't mine.
It's a grave for the 13th district.
I've thought a lot about this, Mr.
Reeves, how to end your experiment for good.
Nobody seems to mind the cops killing innocent people.
But I think a bloody corpse or two at City Hall might shake everybody's faith in the Gideon Reeves revolution, don't you? Please.
You've made your point.
No, I haven't.
Not until I bring your brave new world to an end.
MURPHY: He's stalling.
We need to get to downtown before it's too late.
- Enjoy the show.
- Shut the hell up.
(sirens approaching) Pump it up Pump it up Pump it up Put 'em in the a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-air Pump it up Pump it up Pump it up P-P-Pump it, pump it up Pump it up P-P-Pump it up P-P-Pump it up P-P-Pump it A-A-Air (siren wailing) Pump it up Put 'em in the a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-air.
Yes, this is Gideon Reeves.
I need to talk to Mayor Salgado immediately.
Wait, this is an emerg What are they saying? I'm listening to hold music.
SCOTT: Look, I'm just trying to say, Mr.
Mayor, now may not be the best time for a press conference.
SALGADO: Oh, it's the perfect time.
Take a look at this.
The city council just authorized that injunction.
The 12th district is taking over the 13th.
Listen, I was there.
I saw exactly what's going on.
And I saw Gideon trying to help.
He's trying to clean up a mess that he made.
AIDE: Mr.
Mayor? Mr.
Mayor, I have Gideon Reeves on the phone for you, sir.
Oh, speak of the bastard and he pops up.
Hey, Reeves.
Perfect timing, I was just about to go outside and tell your friends in the press that we're shutting you down.
Whatever you are doing, cancel it.
You are in danger.
(laughing): Nice try, Mr.
Reeves.
I'm serious.
You can't Uh, yes, I ca listen, you son of a bitch! I know that you think that your money gives you the right to tell everybody in this town what to do, but I'm here to tell you that you are sorely mistaken.
No, no, no, this is not about me! Oh, it's all about you, Mr.
Reeves.
It's about you finally getting what you deserve.
(siren wailing) (tires screech) I don't ah (groans) What happened? - The ass-hat hung up on me! - (car horns honking) (siren chirps) Gideon, we're not getting anywhere with this traffic.
All right, give me one sec.
Squad, this is Gideon.
Conrad, you there? CONRAD: What's left of me.
Captain, we need to get to City Hall.
Lights and sirens are not gonna cut it.
I hear you, but without Ada around GIDEON: I know, I know.
Just go to her computer.
- Gideon, I can't.
- You have to.
We got to clear this traffic.
There's no other way.
Listen, I I can barely check my e-mails, much less All right, well, I'm gonna talk you through it.
Okay, she's already in the the-the transportation department interface.
Tell me what's up on the screen right now.
CONRAD: Uh, "Rail system emergency braking.
" Good, good.
So, I need you to get to the main menu.
And get ready to rock and roll.
Go ahead now Pledge allegiance Should be a dialog box.
New alliance Ay-ay-ya Okay, and Click on it.
Click on that sub-menu.
I'm breaking this illusion The "yes" box.
This is a revolution I am the evolution There.
I am the revolution GIDEON: Got to get one block over.
MURPHY: Okay, hold on.
GIDEON: Uh, you know this is a sidewalk, right? And that is definitely a pedestrian.
Gideon, is it working? GIDEON: Affirmative, Captain.
You gave us the green light.
Evolution I am the evolution Good.
You two gonna make it? I hope so.
I am the revolution.
SALGADO: Thank you for coming.
(cameras snapping) As I'm sure you know, this has been a difficult day for the City of Chicago.
And we'll be sorting out exactly what happened for some time to come.
But right now one thing is painfully clear: the technological experiment launched in our 13th district by billionaire Gideon Reeves has failed.
(engine revs, tires screech) (siren wailing) What are you doing? The drones GIDEON: No, no, no, it's not for the drones.
Then what? Reeves has talked about making our city safer.
(motor whirring) The trouble is, his own ego, his own arrogance has gotten in the way.
All right, this jams electrical signals, right? So, DV8 has an automated sniper rifle out there.
If I can scramble the electronics, I might be able to stop it.
But I just need to remove the regulator circuits, so it transmits a wider range of frequencies.
Just spare me the details and make sure you fry that thing.
Reeves talks about improvements, he talks about revolution, he talks about disruption.
But where does he talk about the people impacted by his reckless reforms? Sure, the world is changing, and change is good.
But what happens when that change is too fast? (siren wailing) Go, get to the mayor! (system trills) Deep down inside, I was burning Chicago Police! Everybody down! Down! Everybody down! A ray of hope (crowd screaming) I couldn't find it Couldn't find it I was looking to the sky for an answer (gunshot) Crying up at the clouds Thinking maybe God Or somebody else would come and save me Save me Ooh (yells) Ooh Come and save me Ooh Ooh (system buzzes) Come and save me (Murphy groans) - Are you hurt? - No, I'm okay.
You? I'm fine, I'm fine.
(whimpers) I was pounding my fists on the pavement Murphy! Put my ear to the ground I couldn't hear a sound And it was like nobody Was gonna save me Save me We're too late.
No.
We're just getting started.
Come and save me, save me.
