FBI (2018) s09e01 Episode Script
Rendition
1
There was no exposure.
There was no containment.
Do you understand me?
There were 18 Americans on that bus.
We cannot sweep this under the
rug and pretend it never happened!
This is above all of our clearances.
Anna Vorpe.
The Secretary of Defense
contacted me personally.
She is protected.
You are a disgrace to the bureau.
And you're fired.
I cannot lose you.
You're never gonna lose me, Mags.
My strike team works off the books.
You'd be an asset, OA.

Anna made her move. I'm in.

Okay, we got it.
Who's today's lucky winner?
The target's name is Cameron Coleo.
Get familiar.
Fiber junction is offline.
I looped the cameras, and I
bricked their access doors.
Should buy us about four minutes.
You really think
we need all this hardware?
Okay.

Where's Cameron Coleo?
You're gonna wanna tell us.

How'd that get tripped?
Someone pulled the fire alarm.
We're burned.
Should we bail?
No. Keep looking.
Copy.

Cameron Coleo, stop.

FBI.
Don't move.

Another day, and still nothing.
And good morning to you too.
It's been three months. I hate this.
OA will reach out when he has something
that we can use against Anna Vorpe.
Until then,
any communication is too risky.
Do you even know if
the transmitter's working?
Have you checked it?
They're both working fine.
Okay, then let's ping him right now.
Get a status report.
Okay.
Maggie, do you wanna take down Anna?
Or do you want your partner back?
I want both.
OA is not an active agent anymore.
His mission is unsanctioned.
You and I are the only
two people at this bureau
who knows what he's doing.
Any attempt to reach out
could jeopardize our careers
and put OA in more danger.
I know. I know that.
I just wanna hear his voice, okay?
I need to know that he's alive.
I know. Me too.
Am I interrupting?
Hi. No, not at all.
I was just updating Maggie
on a new case.
We've got a body
in Fahnestock State Park.
I should go.
Hey.
How's your new partner working out?
Great. Really great.
[SOFT TENSE MUSIC]
♪
You know, I would
have got you something,
but it turns out, after all this time,
I still don't know your coffee order.
I mean, if we were
on a game show together
I stopped on the way in.
I'm fine.
Hey, I'm happy to be passenger princess,
but my old partner let me drive
every once in a while.
Good to know.
And the face he made when
he chewed that lemon slice,
it's the exact same face that you make
when you hear a show tune.
Are you mocking my child?
I'm mocking you.
But honestly, I'm honored
that you let me
introduce Dougie to the concept of sour.
No, it was great having you.
Looks like we're here.
There they are.
Yep.
They certainly haven't
found their rhythm.
It's gotta be hard for Maggie.
I mean, Isaiah's uncle's
the guy who fired OA.
You can't blame the kid, though.
It's not Maggie's partner's fault
that his uncle is the ADIC.
So what do we got?
A wildlife ranger discovered our vic
on an early morning patrol.
Single gunshot wound to the
back of the head, 9 millimeter.
Based on ME's prelim, the girl
was killed about 12 hours ago.
That's horrible. She just turned 21.
Any signs of sexual assault here?
No.
And her wallet and keys
are still on her body.
Her name is Clara Brooks.
The van is registered in her name.
Looks like she was just
up here on a camping trip.
Yeah, and vlogging all about it.
Hi, and welcome to my channel.
I'm documenting
my adventures because
I just love camping and nature.
And I learned to love
the outdoors
from my mom and dad, so.
Okay. So that's Clara Brooks.
She was only 21 years old, and her life
was cut short in what appears
to be an act of random violence.
She's from Alabama, but since her body
was found across state lines,
this one's ours to handle.
So let's get justice for Clara, yeah?
So Clara was a travel influencer
or trying to be one, had a
small following on TikTok.
She posted videos about her #VanLife.
Thanks. ME puts her time
of death at approximately
6:30 p.m. yesterday.
You guys are scanning her texts, right?
Did she have a boyfriend?
Yeah, yeah, she did mention
to a few friends
that she started dating
a guy a few months ago
but only refers to him as J.
So looks like we'll have to
buy a vowel to ID this guy.
- Jubal.
- Yeah?
- Got something.
- Okay, from Clara's camera, right?
Yeah, and this was shot yesterday.
What did you do with my book?
I didn't touch it.
I left it right there
on the table.
You're always moving my stuff
to film your stupid videos.
Don't! I'm trying to record.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
I need some air.
Okay.
Hey. Right there. It's gotta
be enough for facial rec, right?
Let's see what this J is
short for, other than jerk.
Got him, Jeff Watts, 25,
went to college in Alabama
for wrestling, got suspended
after a DV charge.
Well, that tracks. Let's find him.
55% of all female
homicide victims in the U.S.
are killed by their domestic partners.
I found his police report. Looks
like he threatened his then-girlfriend
with an unregistered gun, 9 millimeter.
Clara was also killed
with a 9 millimeter.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's find this guy.
You ping his phone?
Yes, but he turned it off.
From what we can see,
his last known location
was at the state park.
Okay, so he's running.
Hey, boss, Clara's credit card
was just used 11 minutes ago
to rent a car at Crosspoint.
Send the team.
♪
I see him.
Someone's looking for a way
out of town and fast.
Do you wanna?
Jeff Watts. FBI.
Look, we just wanna talk.
Jeff. Jeff!
Drop the bag, Jeff!
Back. Stay back!
[TENSE MUSIC]
♪
It wasn't me.
- I didn't kill her.
- Okay, Jeff.
Look, if that's true, the FBI is gonna
sort it all out, all right?
But can you understand why,
right now, it's looking a lot
to me like you're running?
I had to run.
I know what it looks like.
Everyone is just gonna say
that I did it.
This is all gonna land on me,
even though I did nothing wrong!
All right, Jeff, so why don't you
just put the weapon down, and tell me
what did happen, all right?
This was all Clara's fault.
She treated me like I was
absolutely noth
No, no, no, no! Get off me!
Get off of me!
Stop. Stop. No.
You don't understand.
You don't understand.
We got into a stupid fight.
I said we needed space to cool off,
so I hiked up to the top
of Candlewood Hill.
I don't know where Clara went,
but when I got back to the car,
she was already dead.
You got any way to back that up?
Yeah.
Check my hiking app.
The app is called TrailTracker.
It is part social media platform,
part GPS mapping system.
It's a way for people to track their
hikes and share their workouts.
Whatever happened
to unplugging in nature?
So both Clara and Jeff had profiles,
and we were able to pull their data.
Jeff has a smartwatch, and
Clara was wearing a smart ring.
We can see their precise
movements on the day
that Clara was murdered.
So yesterday afternoon,
Jeff followed an 8-mile Grand Loop trail
to the summit of Candlewood Hill,
just like he told us.
He was up there for a few hours,
coming down at 8:16 p.m.
So he was 4 miles away from
Clara at the time of her death,
so he couldn't have done it.
But here's where things get odd.
Clara heads north towards Sperling Pond,
but about 50 yards
before she gets there,
she stops in her tracks.
All right, so what's there,
a lookout point?
No, nothing, just open trail.
Clara is only there for 30
seconds, and then this happens.
She turns and runs back to the van.
Runs as in runs?
Full speed sprint.
Look at her heart rate
and pace, three times faster
on her way back to the van.
Okay, so something out there
sent Clara into fight or flight.
The question is what?
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Okay, this is the exact
spot that she stopped.
Middle of nowhere.
Right, but she must
have seen something that
made her run back to the van.
I found a bullet hole.
It looks fresh based off
the splintered bark.
Well, they hit this tree.
The shooter must have
been standing over there.
Let's go.
- Signs of a struggle.
- Look.
We got blood.
♪
This blood goes right up to the water.
Call USERT. We gotta dredge the lake.
♪
Thanks, guys.
All right.
No decomp.
He wasn't in there long,
one shot to the head.
Same as Clara.
Got an ID.
Alex Rubell out of Elmhurst.
So what do we think happened out here?
Clara saw this guy getting smoked?
Or she saw whoever did it
dumping the body.
And they chased her back to her van
to make sure she couldn't talk.
There's a good chance
that she wasn't the target.
She just witnessed an execution.
What did this poor guy
get himself mixed up in?
- All right, eyes up, folks.
- Our case just swerved.
This is Alex Rubell,
and postmortem interval
suggests he was shot
before our first victim.
So now our working theory is Clara
stumbled upon the killer
disposing of Alex's body
and paid the price.
So let's talk about our latest victim.
What do we know?
Alex Rubell, 43, single, ran inventory
for a mid-sized commercial
HVAC company out of Queens.
Ballistics matched the
striations of the bullet found
in Alex's skull to the same gun that
was used to kill Clara Brooks.
So who would wanna execute
an air conditioning repairman?
All right, what else?
Well, Alex doesn't seem to
be much of a people person.
Guy's got no social media other than
a bare bones LinkedIn profile.
- Really? What about me?
- I'm fun at a party.
I'm not on social media.
What about his phone?
His phone was never found.
But his car was parked in a visitor lot.
And good news for us, its
built-in entertainment system
sucks up a ton of
personal data from any device
that's paired to it.
Okay, so can we pull his texts?
- Yes.
- Yeah?
Let's see, Alex Rubell's last known text
was from a man named Dominick Ballaci,
optometrist out in Flatlands.
Alex asked him to go hiking last minute.
Dominick rain-checked.
Doesn't scream means and motive.
No, but we know for a fact,
at the minimum,
this Dominick guy knew that Rubell
would be at an isolated
location at the exact time
of his murder, and that, I say,
is at least worth a conversation.
Dominick Ballaci, Special
Agents Ramos and Scola, FBI.
Got a few questions for you.
About what?
Your friend, Alex Rubell.
When was the last time you saw him?
Not since Friday. Why?
You care to tell us your
whereabouts the last 24 hours?
- No, I do not.
- What is this about?
He was found murdered this morning.
Looks like you were
the last person he talked to.
No. We were careful.
We did everything they told us.
- What are you talking about?
- Who's they?
I can't!
Not here.
All right, so why don't
you come back to 26 Fed?
No! No, you don't have
security clearance for this.
[TIRES SQUEALING]
- Scola!
- Get down!
Move, move, move, move, move!

fleeing north.
Partial New York plates,
Victor Quebec November.
Hey! Hey, look at me.
Stay with me, okay? Can you hear me?
Help is on the way, okay?
You have to warn them.
Dominick, warn who?
Project Jehovah.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
♪
What in the hell is Project Jehovah?
Dominick mentioned security clearances,
so it must be some kind
of government program.
Well, there's no record
on the Scattered Castles
database on JWICS.
Okay, has anyone in here
heard of Project Jehovah?
No?
Okay, well, check with your people
because our agents were
just hit by an assault team
in broad daylight.
They wanted Dominick Ballaci dead,
and his dying wish is that
we warn Project Jehovah,
which is tricky
if you don't know what it is.
We should check every
defense contractor operation,
every task force,
the public works archive.
Yeah, I created database crawlers
to index any known references
to a Project Jehovah,
but still, nothing.
All right, add foreign policy ventures,
state department committees,
and political PACs.
Look everywhere and anywhere.
Project Jehovah has gotta exist.
Hello?
Right now?

- Nikki.
- Hey.
Location's a little cliché,
don't you think?
Well, when your people started
sniffing around Project Jehovah,
Langley was alerted, so.
So what is it?
Project Jehovah is
a Special Access Program.
It's financed by the Department
of Defense's Black Budget,
so classified senators
appropriating the funds
don't know what it is.
Okay, but you do.
It's a nuclear forensics
and attribution program.
It's the strongest nuclear deterrent
our country currently operates.
Uh-huh.
I guess the dark garage
was the right call then.
- Why were you looking into it?
- We weren't.
We're working a series of murders,
a young woman and these two men,
Alex Rubell and Dominick Ballaci.
Those men were our
top nuclear scientists.
They were fully backstopped
with fake IDs, cover stories.
And now somebody is killing them.
Whoever it is wants to
derail Project Jehovah.
Jubal
if this program fails, rogue states
will be able to attack us
using nuclear weapons
with total anonymity.
Right.
And we wouldn't be able to retaliate
because we wouldn't know
where in the world to target.
I don't know how they found their names.
But the FBI needs to protect
the architect of this program.
He's a world-class scientist.
His backstop name is Cameron Coleo.
He's the project director.
His research facility is hidden
by a business cover.
I can get you the address.
An e-waste recycling refinery.
Wait, so this lab has just
been hiding in plain sight?
Yeah, but whoever's been
hunting down our scientists
have obviously figured out
their cover stories.
We have to consider these labs
compromised.
Thank you.
- Cameron Coleo?
- Can I help you?
Special Agent Bell.
This is Special Agent Green.
We're with the FBI.
Now, I don't want to alarm you,
but we need to take you
into protective custody.
Is everything okay?
We'll fill you in
once we're on the road.

Oh, God.
Who were those guys?
No idea.
OA was at the Project Jehovah lab.
Wait, what?
I didn't get to talk to him
for very long,
but the strike team was involved.
They were the ones
that hit Scola and Eva?
Wait, the strike team
is the one who killed
the man in the state park?
OA said it wasn't them.
But then they took off
with Cameron Coleo.
That doesn't make any sense.
If the strike team aren't the ones
killing the scientists, who is?
I mean, you should have
seen the look OA's eyes.
He didn't wanna be there.
I gotta bring OA in from the cold.
We've gotta get some answers.
No, no, don't don't do that.
You said it yourself,
if we bring him back in,
we could jeopardize this entire thing
and put OA in more danger.
Look, we know that he's alive.
He will reach out to us if he needs us.
Okay.
Obviously, if you hear anything
Of course.
Hey.
Your partner's getting checked
out by medical right now.
What the hell happened out there?
Sir
That was supposed
to have been a simple pickup,
and we lost the damn scientist?
I mean, that team came prepared.
Whoever they were, they knew
exactly what they were doing.
They were clean. They were well-trained.
They were in and out in minutes.
And the JOC couldn't track them?
They tried.
But they knew our weaknesses.
I mean, they slipped
right through our net.
A headache I do not need today.

According to my source,
for the last month,
that man has been feeding
classified information
to North Korea.
What kind of classified information?
It's the nuclear forensics unit he runs.
We're talking information
only he would know,
like the top scientists involved,
two of whom were just executed
by a North Korean black bag team.
They're trying to
cripple our nuclear program
for the next decade.
I need to know who Cameron's contact is
and exactly how much information
he has already shared.

Not this time.
Listen, I know that I am

Laney Choi has been sharing
nuclear research with North Korea.
She has also leaked the names

Alone or with friends?
We don't know.

Maggie and Isaiah
saw Coleo get extracted
from Project Jehovah, but we never got
an ID on the black bag team.
Right. And that was North Korea.

Single gunshot wound to the

That's horrible. She just turned 21.
Any signs of sexual assault here?
No.
And her wallet and keys
are still on her body.
Her name is Clara Brooks.
The van is registered in her name.

Yeah, and vlogging all about it.
Hi, and welcome to my channel.
I'm documenting
my adventures because
I just love camping and nature.
And I learned to love

from my mom and dad, so.
Okay. So that's Clara Brooks.
She was only 21 years old, and her life
was cut short in what appears
to be an act of random violence.
She's from Alabama, but since her body
was found across state lines,
this one's ours to handle.
So let's get justice for Clara, yeah?
So Clara was a travel influencer
or trying to be one, had a
small following on TikTok.
She posted videos about her #VanLife.
Thanks. ME puts her time
of death at approximately
6:30 p.m. yesterday.

We got into a stupid fight.
I said we needed space to cool off,
so I hiked up to the top
of Candlewood Hill.
I don't know where Clara went,
but when I got back to the car,
she was already dead.
You got any way to back that up?
Yeah.
Check my hiking app.
The app is called TrailTracker.
It is part social media platform,
part GPS mapping system.
It's a way for people to track their
hikes and share their workouts.
Whatever happened
to unplugging in nature?
So both Clara and Jeff had profiles,
and we were able to pull their data.
Jeff has a smartwatch, and
Clara was wearing a smart ring.
We can see their precise
movements on the day
that Clara was murdered.
So yesterday afternoon,
Jeff followed an 8-mile Grand Loop trail
to the summit of Candlewood Hill,
just like he told us.
He was up there for a few hours,
coming down at 8:16 p.m.
So he was 4 miles away from
Clara at the time of her death,
so he couldn't have done it.
But here's where things get odd.
Clara heads north towards Sperling Pond,
but about 50 yards
before she gets there,
she stops in her tracks.
All right, so what's there,
a lookout point?
No, nothing, just open trail.
Clara is only there for 30
seconds, and then this happens.
She turns and runs back to the van.
Runs as in runs?
Full speed sprint.
Look at her heart rate
and pace, three times faster
on her way back to the van.
Okay, so something out there
sent Clara into fight or flight.
The question is what?
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

spot that she stopped.
Middle of nowhere.
Right, but she must
have seen something that

Clara saw this guy getting smoked?
Or she saw whoever did it
dumping the body.
And they chased her back to her van

There's a good chance
that she wasn't the target.
She just witnessed an execution.
What did this poor guy
get himself mixed up in?
- All right, eyes up, folks.
- Our case just swerved.
This is Alex Rubell,
and postmortem interval
suggests he was shot
before our first victim.
So now our working theory is Clara
stumbled upon the killer
disposing of Alex's body
and paid the price.
So let's talk about our latest victim.
What do we know?
Alex Rubell, 43, single, ran inventory
for a mid-sized commercial
HVAC company out of Queens.
Ballistics matched the
striations of the bullet found
in Alex's skull to the same gun that
was used to kill Clara Brooks.
So who would wanna execute
an air conditioning repairman?
All right, what else?
Well, Alex doesn't seem to
be much of a people person.
Guy's got no social media other than
a bare bones LinkedIn profile.
- Really? What about me?
- I'm fun at a party.
I'm not on social media.
What about his phone?
His phone was never found.
But his car was parked in a visitor lot.
And good news for us, its
built-in entertainment system
sucks up a ton of
personal data from any device
that's paired to it.
Okay, so can we pull his texts?
- Yes.
- Yeah?
Let's see, Alex Rubell's last known text
was from a man named Dominick Ballaci,
optometrist out in Flatlands.
Alex asked him to go hiking last minute.
Dominick rain-checked.
Doesn't scream means and motive.
No, but we know for a fact,
at the minimum,
this Dominick guy knew that Rubell
would be at an isolated
location at the exact time
of his murder, and that, I say,
is at least worth a conversation.

OA.
- Sorry about that.
- Yeah.
You should see the other guy.
How are you doing?
Better now.
I'm okay.
But I don't have a lot of time.
We gotta talk.
Okay.
So you're telling me that
Cameron Coleo is innocent?
I believe he is,
but his girlfriend, Laney Choi,
has been working with
North Korea behind his back.
Well, does the strike team
know about this?
Not yet. I told him to hold
off as long as he could,
but once Devon gets her name,
she's gonna spend the rest of her life
in some U.S. government black
site halfway around the world.
Anna's gonna make Cameron disappear.
- She's gonna have to.
- I know.
So you guys gotta get
to Laney Choi first.
Her testimony will prove his innocence.
There's just not a lot of time.
Okay. We can do that.
But how do we find Laney?
Coleo gave me the location
of the rendezvous point.
It's a restaurant called The Foundry.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Hey. Thanks for the location.
Scola and Eva are on their way
to The Foundry.
Good. Are we up on CCTV feed?
We're working on it.
So where did we get this intel?
A reliable source.
Okay, not our friends
at New York Station?
Not this time.
Listen, I know that I am
asking for your faith here,
but this situation is fragile.
What I can tell you is,
we have on good authority
Laney Choi has been sharing
nuclear research with North Korea.
She has also leaked the names
of the scientists killed today.
Okay, so what's at The Foundry?
We believe that it is a rendezvous point
and that Laney Choi will be there.
Alone or with friends?
We don't know.
Right.
All right, well, let's send
Maggie and Isaiah as backup.
- I don't wanna take any chances.
- Calling them now.
We also believe that
Laney has made a deal
with North Korea to be taken
from this country
along with her boyfriend, Cameron Coleo.
Maggie and Isaiah
saw Coleo get extracted
from Project Jehovah, but we never got
an ID on the black bag team.
Right. And that was North Korea.
And they have Coleo now.
Regardless, our mission is clear.
We are to apprehend
Laney Choi and recover
our stolen nuclear research.
Yeah. You heard the boss.
Let's get to work.
♪
All right, we are at
the rendezvous point.
No sign of our target.
Scola.
Laney Choi? FBI.
You're gonna need to come with us.
No, I can't.
I'm waiting for my boyfriend.
We're aware that you've been
leaking secrets to North Korea.
You don't get it.
They approached you.
They made promises, am I right?
Look, we've seen this before,
and we can help.
But you need to come with us right now.
No, you you can't help me, okay?
They have my parents. I'm sorry.
They're going to kill them
if I don't do what they say.
