FBI: International (2021) s02e09 Episode Script

1
Where's Charles?
My father sent me.
That's a shame.
I only do business with Charles.
What's a shame is wasting my time.
What's a shame is men of a certain age
who look down their noses
at me because I'm a woman.
What's a shame is that
my father is not going to be
around much longer,
and you just burned a bridge
with the woman who'll be taking
over his entire fencing operation.
Charles did not tell me.
My father's money will spend
just the same
whether you accept it
from me or from him.
Forgive me.
I don't care if you're a man, woman,
or anything else you may be.
I trust Charles only.
Then good luck unloading your
merchandise anywhere in Europe.
Wait!
Wait!
I I was just
You want the money, my father
wants what you stole.
It's as simple as that.
Fine.
I've got it. I've got the painting.
Move in. Move in!
Daniel LeDee, you're under arrest
for possession of stolen art.
And Charles Rainier, your fence,
he doesn't have a daughter.
Maybe you should have checked
that before you sat down with me.
I must be going soft.
You're Europol?
FO Megan Garretson
Well, I have some information
that might be useful to you,
Officer Garretson.
And what would that be?
I know a much bigger heist
that'll take place in 72 hours.
I've been in Budapest three
years and never done that.
You didn't have the right
man to take you so high.
Uh-huh.
Have you ridden it before?
Uh
That's what I thought.
How many girls have you
taken on that ride?
Mm.
None as beautiful
and intelligent as you.
Okay. That was pretty good.
You keep this up, I'm gonna
fall in love with you.
Ah, man.
We caught a case.
This what you were talking about?
How the job's always gonna come first?
Unfortunately.
I'll make it up to you.
I will let you do that.
Sorry I'm the last one in.
- I was, uh
- Hot date.
- Actually
- You owe me 20.
The over-under on you and Maya
was three months, you covered.
In my defense, you haven't made it
past week three with anyone, so.
I've never been more excited
to change the subject.
What do we got?
Smitty?
Europol spent a year investigating
an American art thief
named Daniel LeDee.
He stole a Degas worth
over 2 million euros
from a Dutch museum this summer.
I was brought in yesterday
to be his fence's daughter.
Success?
- In spades.
- Nice.
Here's where it gets even better.
Everyone heard of the
name Michael Semien?
Yeah.
He's been on the FBI'S
radar for a decade.
Pulled the Los Angeles Crown
bank heist in 2012.
Three security guards killed,
plus a customer.
2 million in cash stolen and resurfaced
for the JFK customs depot heist in '17.
He killed a couple
of NYPD officers, right?
And a customs agent.
Got away with tens of millions
in foreign currency.
After that, disappeared without a trace.
A lot of rumors, he's still in Europe.
No charges were filed in the U.S.
because we didn't have
enough evidence to tie Semien
to the robberies, but we suspect
he pulled the trigger on these bodies.
The bureau would love to lock him up.
Right, well, my pal LeDee wants
to trade information on Semien
for a lighter sentence.
He says your man is in Budapest
right now
planning a major heist.
Incredible.
Apparently, he needs
a getaway driver last minute.
LeDee was supposed to arrange the match.
This is our chance
to have a man on the inside.
You.
I looked up your history.
You set the record on the precision
obstacle course at Quantico.
You never told us that.
I've got layers upon layers.
And just when I think I know everything.
Semien puts together teams
from all over the world,
and LeDee is willing to introduce you
as a trusted wheelman
If we wipe his record clean.
I've cleared it with my bosses.
I'm in.
Let us know how we can help.
Hey, where are you?
Legat office, Warsaw, Poland.
What?
I'm not sure why
I'm getting my chain jerked
for three weeks in a row,
but my eyes are wide open now.
What'd they have you doing?
Paperwork, receipts, tax records,
corporate security filings.
That's for analysts.
Which is why I'm starting to get pissed.
Dandridge is behind this.
You're kidding.
You do not report to him.
I saw his name on the travel recs.
Apparently, he's got enough
juice in Washington
to move me around like a nomad.
You know me, I'm a team player,
but this has hit bizarro-ville.
- What's he up to?
- No idea.
It's like I'm being punished,
and I don't know why.
I'll fish around.
Speak of the devil,
Dandridge just showed up here.
All right, any insight you
can give me will be welcome.
Just be careful.
I'll handle it with discretion.
You take care of yourself.
Keeping my head down.
What's this?
Europol-led mission
to bring down a burglary ring,
featuring Daniel LeDee
and Michael Semien.
Europol-led?
Yes, sir.
Okay.
Good, good, good.
I have a question.
Shoot.
Why is our fly team commander in Warsaw
doing paperwork when we have
actual field assignments
that pop up at a moment's
notice like this?
Forrester is exactly
where he's supposed to be.
I want you and FO Garretson
to keep me apprised of the mission.
Detailed reports in real time.
What's with the oversight
from Dandridge?
Not sure yet.
Okay, LeDee needs to
introduce the driver at 2200.
I've gotta brief you
on everything we know.
Lead the way.
I don't like that we gotta trust
LeDee to vouch for Raines.
LeDee has no choice.
We have him over a barrel.
Unless he's working some kind of angle.
It'd be stupid to lie.
He'd be adding years to his sentence.
Not if he's playing possum,
buying enough time
to plan an escape.
Is Raines a good enough UC?
There hasn't been a mission
yet where he hasn't overdelivered.
Listen, can we move in on
Semien as soon as we spot him,
or do we need to catch him in the act?
If we want charges to stick,
catching him with the stolen
merchandise will ensure a conviction.
If it's down to conspiracy,
five years at best,
or Semien makes a deal and walks.
So Raines needs
to take this all the way.
That would be best, yeah.
I'm up to speed
on all things Michael Semien.
The man knows what he's talking about.
I think he can pull this off.
I know I can.
What kind of tires
on a late model Audi A8?
Pirelli P-Zero 295s.
Who knocked off the Dunbar
armored car service in 1997?
Allen Pace, Eugene Hill.
Mm-hmm. How much did they steal?
19 mil.
Who was the driver in the
Northern Bank robbery in Belfast?
Unknown.
But it was Charlie Darcy.
Is that a joke?
Improvising.
Don't worry about me.
I can handle whatever
these clowns throw at me.
Yeah, it's that confidence
I worry about.
You won't feel it if they make you.
They won't.
You don't have to take it
all the way to the heist.
Hey, you can pull the ripcord
if things go south
and we can move in and arrest
Semien at any point.
You heard Smitty.
Not if we want him sticking
to serious jail time.
Vo, look at me.
I got this.
Raines.
It's time.
Michael Semien is shrewd,
distrustful, cynical, and brilliant.
The only reason he'll let you
inside is my endorsement,
and he'll do that reluctantly.
Every moment, every interaction
you have with him will be a test.
I'm ready.
I hope you are, because if
you fail, you'll kill us both.
LeDee.
Semien.
Who is this?
Andre Westcott, American.
I worked the Philadelphia and Milan job
with Andre behind the wheel.
Best driver currently in Europe.
What you drive in Milan?
BMW X5 M-class.
Oh. SUV.
We had four guys plus me and one exit.
With Beemers so popular in
Italy, I figured we blend in.
Is that Michael Semien?
Affirmative.
Come on, Raines.
Draw him in.
What would you propose
for a five man heist,
average weight, guys each
carrying packs over 80 pounds?
In Budapest?
Hypothetically.
Volkswagens are popular in Hungary.
Maybe, like, a 2020 Atlas
Cross Sport, slate gray.
All season tires,
but pressed down to 20 PSI
in case we gotta hug the turns.
Packs go in the back,
strap five guys inside.
Biggest guys in the second row.
Okay.
Let's see what skills you got.
Break into that sedan.
- The Audi?
- Yeah.
Nah, man, I'd never steal that car.
Audi sedans have electronic
key systems with RFID blockers
to keep thieves from cloning them.
They also have anti-theft software
in the driving system, and satellite
chips to proactively draw police.
No thief worth his salt
would steal this car.
If you want to swipe something,
swipe the BMW.
Okay.
Now?
Now.
Here we go.
All right. Let's go.
Well, Mr. Westcott, let's see
what kind of driver you are.
He's in a Black BMW, three passengers,
heading north on Nemzeti Lovardo.
You failed.
Or LeDee's been had and you're
not who you say you are.
Get out of the car.
Don't you ever call me a liar again.
Ryan, mate, are you okay?
- Aces.
- Ah.
Nice work.
That's all all right then?
Class performance.
Vo, kill it.
This is Ryan Lykes with Europol.
You should quit and head to Hollywood.
Don't give him any ideas.
Now it's Raines' turn in the spotlight.
Where you from, Westcott?
Oh, Pittsburgh originally.
Cops like that one where I come from,
their badges were just an
excuse for mayhem and murder.
You know what I'm saying?
If a cop gets in my way,
I let that bastard
Yeah, well, it was stupid.
Now the police in Hungary
are gonna be on high alert.
I did what I had to do.
Or the three of us would be
sitting in a Budapest jail right now.
Good thing the job isn't in Budapest.
Raines, you okay?
For the time being.
Listen, the job's not in Budapest.
What? Where is it?
Belgium. Antwerp, specifically.
Look, I don't have time
for a full briefing.
I have to board a private plane
with Semien and LeDee right now.
Yeah, of course. We'll get to
Antwerp and tag in local police.
Good.
And Raines, this man has five
bodies to his name that we know of.
You take care of yourself, you hear me?
Always.
Antwerp?
What he said.
The Diamond District there is one
of the most famous market places
in the world.
Billion dollars in stones
within a three-block radius.
From what we can gather,
Semien likes to hire
international crews for these jobs.
Typically groups of four
who work specifically for that caper
then split and never see
each other again.
So Raines won't be the only new player?
We hope.
Update?
Uh, yes.
Raines is embedded in
Semien's robbery crew.
The job is in Antwerp,
which is where we're headed,
so we can coordinate
with local police on scene.
And Europol.
I don't know if this is a good idea.
Too much exposure for the fly team.
Raines can coordinate with
our legat in Brussels.
That'll free you and Vo up
for work closer to home.
Respectfully, SAC Dandridge,
we're not going to do that.
FBI protocol is for an undercover agent
to personally choose their
handler for an operation.
Special Agent Raines designated
me before he went under,
and I'm including
Special Agent Vo as my second,
also according to protocol.
I'm gonna have to insist I get
daily 302s emailed directly to me,
and keep your
phone within reach at all times.
Of course.
FO Garretson.
Welcome to Antwerp. I'm Nicolas Wesmael.
It's great to meet you,
and thank you for letting us
crash your office, short notice.
We're here to accommodate.
We've dedicated all of our resources
to assisting you on this case.
Excellent.
84% of the world's diamonds
pass through Antwerp.
There are over 400 jewelry
exchanges, cutters, polishers,
and retailers in the city.
An address would be most helpful.
We have a man on the inside.
We'll hand over that information
as soon as we have it.
Scott, how are you?
Stuck in Warsaw.
I'm trying to wrap this up,
so I can join you guys in Antwerp.
What are they telling you?
Well, I went around Dandridge
to see if someone in Washington
or New York
could shed some light on what's
happening with sidelining me,
but radio silence so far.
He's giving us a short leash, Dandridge.
Okay, everything by the book then.
Do not give him an excuse
to further action.
- How's Raines?
- Not sure.
We're still waiting
on his next check-in.
When?
A couple hours ago.
Okay.
Crew for this job.
Ambroz is "Currents," electrician.
Pedersen is "Genius,"
our technology master.
Vesperov is "Monster," or
The man with the firepower!
Right.
Westcott is "Speedy," our driver.
LeDee is "Locks," which needs
no further explanation.
And I'm "Mastermind,"
which means you listen to me
and you do exactly what I say,
and we will pull off a score
that will change your lives
and bank accounts forever.
Understand?
Good.
We're gonna rob the vault
of a diamond exchange
in downtown Antwerp in two days.
Let's get to it.
Okay, this will do nicely.
Now, I've been visiting this exchange
as a merchant, for over a year.
Making you a regular fixture there.
Right, which kept me unnoticed
as I planted pinhole cameras
here, here, and here,
where I was able to steal codes
from merchants
who had access to restricted areas.
Now, I have been patiently
waiting for a worthwhile score
to pay for all this time,
energy, and effort.
A week ago, it arrived.
200 million in uncut stones will
be left overnight in Delta Vault.
Here in two days.
Did you say 200 million?
He did.
I was able to buy
the building's floor plans.
The four of us
are gonna access the vault
through the lobby here
into the basement here,
and we will gain access
to the Delta Vault
to the sub-basement here,
which I've recreated
to the last detail.
We will know exactly
what each of us are doing,
because we will have practiced it again,
and again
the next 48 hours.
Understood?
Afterwards, we take the service elevator
to the underground garage
where Speedy will be waiting
in a Citroen C5.
He will drive us to Ghent,
where we will divide the spoils,
going on our merry ways,
never to see each other again.
Does that sound acceptable to everyone?
What's the address?
It wasn't on the blueprints.
I need to know the roads,
the alleys
leading into and out of the place.
Are there any one-way streets?
Is the river nearby?
You'll know it
when I want you to know it.
Quick question.
If the four of us are doing all
the work, taking all the risk.
Do we get a larger cut than Speedy,
who'll just be waiting outside?
All the risk?
Man, you ever been on a job
when the alarms went off
and 50 cops came out of nowhere
with sirens roaring
and bubble lights flashing?
'Cause if you had, you'd know
exactly what I'm worth.
He's gonna get his share,
and you're gonna get your share.
I don't wanna hear another word.
Understood?
Yeah.
Okay.
Let's get to work.
Hey, it's me.
Okay, here's the deal.
It's a crew of five, including me.
Ambroz is the electrician.
Fabrizio Ambroz out of Prague.
Twice busted on aiding and
abetting a counterfeit ring.
Did two years in Pankrac prison.
Norwegian guy named
Pedersen is the techie.
Viggo Pedersen from Narvik,
caught hacking along with identity theft
in 18 countries across Europe.
We thought he was dead.
Apparently not.
Vesperov is Monster,
which means he's the enforcer.
Pavel Vesperov,
skated five homicide charges
over a nine-year period.
Key witnesses either had second thoughts
about testifying or disappeared.
That leaves LeDee on locks,
Semien as mastermind,
and I'm the wheelman.
These are nasty, dangerous guys, Raines.
If you get any itch they're on to you,
I want you out of there immediately.
Do you understand?
I feel you.
- You got an address?
- Not yet.
Could be any of hundreds of buildings.
Okay. Stay safe.
You know it.
Everybody up. Now!
I have a contact with the
Belgian Federal Police.
He just told me I have a mole problem.
You better hope
you're not looking at me.
My contact doesn't know who
on my team has been talking.
It says Europol has moved the
task force to Antwerp to monitor us.
Yeah, well, I'm not a narc.
I'm not a mole.
And I'm damn sure getting
tired of the accusations.
I only took this job
'cause I owed LeDee a favor.
You saw him kill that cop in Budapest.
Did I?
Pedersen.
A cop died in Hungary,
that news would make
the papers, wouldn't it?
It would.
Well, someone's been squawking.
Well, your contact was wrong.
- I'm out.
- What?
Should never have taken this job.
Too short notice.
Too unprofessional. Too many amateurs.
Now we got heat on us
even before we started.
You used to be a legend,
but maybe you're slipping.
Or maybe you're the mole.
Screw this!
Screw you.
I just got a weird call.
From?
A friend of mine at headquarters
who had some insider information for us.
He says Dandridge has been in contact
with the deputy commissioner
regarding the fly team.
Any specifics?
No, just that he felt like something big
was going on
and he wanted my take on it,
I said this was the first
I heard of anything.
I get a bad feeling from Dandridge.
And the fact that
Forrester isn't here
I told Chuck to call me back
if he had any more information.
Until then, we just keep our
heads down and do the work.
No, no, no, no.
You drill before the alarm
is cut, it's game over.
How am I to know the alarm is cut?
It's timed out, you blázen.
- Blázen?
- That's right.
Oh, hey, hey, hey, calm down!
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Maybe Pedersen was right.
- Maybe we should call this off.
- I've invested a year.
With all that's been happening
Listen, the stones are gonna
be in the vault tomorrow, okay?
Everything that I worked for,
it has to be now. This is it for me.
I'm not gonna get another chance.
We're out a tech guy.
I'll be your tech guy.
You're the driver.
Those are twin computers
running Infinity Fabric
to create Greyson processors.
Each with a four-core grouping
inside a threadripper with a 2 die base.
You've also got surveillance
AI running CC algorithms
to deprogram the alarms,
plus provide response time
in case of a system alert.
So yeah, I could park
the getaway SUV in the garage
while I also run the tech
for you inside the vault.
And I'm gonna need
another 10% when I do.
Okay.
Let's drill until we get the entire
burglary in under two minutes.
- The hell were you doing?
- What?
Trying to push Semien
into calling this off.
It's too dangerous.
For who? For you?
For all of us.
I have to catch him in the act.
Or else your immunity deal's off.
You can spend the rest
of your life in jail.
That what you want?
Get your head on straight!
You pull anything like that again
and I'll walk you
into Ghent prison myself.
Okay, it's time.
You still haven't given me an address.
The car you requested will be parked
within 200 feet of the back door.
That's all you need to know.
Just got a text from Raines.
He said he still doesn't
know the address,
but he dropped a pin
on his current location.
Said they built a replica vault there.
Can identify the vault from the replica,
maybe we can cross-reference it
with photos and blueprints
of all the jewelry exchanges
and come up with an address.
Are you gonna notify Dandridge?
We'll catch him up later.
Not gonna say I don't love that.
You speak English?
Do you have any floors
under renovation here?
Eighth floor is currently
under construction.
Over here.
Start taking pictures,
and we need every analyst
at Europol and the bureau
poring over blueprints,
images on the web,
delivery orders, so that we can find out
where the corresponding
real vault actually is located.
You said you're with Europol?
- Yes.
- Come quickly.
I went to throw away my bap, and, uh,
I noticed all the flies buzzing.
Here.
Body identified as Viggo
Pedersen, tech specialist.
Which means Raines probably
took his place inside the vault.
We've got a match.
Address is 217 De Meers.
They just called in a power outage.
What the hell are you doing, man?
LeDee was working with Europol
since he brought you in.
Freeze!
Down on the ground. Now.
Do it.
Are you okay?
LeDee is dead in the vault.
We discovered them all
in our department.
A junior officer named Nicolas Van Hove.
He was bribed by Semien months ago
and was to alert the thief if
his name came up on our radar.
All Van Hove knew was that
LeDee cut a deal with Europol.
Their plan was to leave you
and LeDee in the vault,
which would preoccupy the
police while Semien got away.
What happens to the
junior officer, Van Hove?
Zero tolerance.
He will go to jail, I assure you.
Hey. Catch you at a bad time?
No. Yeah.
I mean, we're starting to get busy.
I just wanted to hear your voice.
Yeah, you haven't called in a few days.
Believe me when I tell you
I would have if I could have.
Okay.
- Maya
- No, it's
you warned me this was gonna happen,
and I told myself I'd be okay with it.
Are you?
I'm trying.
Look, I gotta go.
You want to come by when you get back?
I do.
Tonight.
I'll see you then.
Look who didn't forget about us.
Kidding me? Never.
I used every connection that I had,
mainly Katrin Jaeger,
to monitor the mission along the way.
How is Jaeger?
Oh, she's great. And Raines?
Sounds like you handled
everything thrown at you
like a true professional.
There were some moments when
my heart was beating fast,
not gonna lie.
I bet.
Okay. Well done, everyone.
I will catch up with you in a second.
You wanted to see me.
I did.
For the last three weeks,
I have been running
around Europe doing busy work,
analyst work, while the team that I run
has been busting their asses,
putting their lives in harm's way,
and you got me in a basement in Warsaw
with my hands tied behind my back.
I had a chance to observe the fly team,
the team you run
as you just reminded me.
They are sloppy, undisciplined,
and take unnecessary risks.
They barely kept me apprised
of their mission.
In fact, I would say they
deliberately went out of their way
to keep me in the
dark about what went on in Antwerp.
I had to get the details
through Europol.
Two people died there due to
your special agents' actions.
And I don't blame Raines
or Kellett or Vo,
I blame you, their leader.
So I'm here to let you know
I spoke to the deputy
commissioner in D.C.
You're being transferred to
the admin division in Alabama.
What?
You've got two weeks to wrap up here,
and then you're gone.
