Don't play with me, man.
Look, what do you want? I am going as fast as I can, so let me do this! You tickle me, I will leave you.
What makes you think I'd do something like that? Hey, listen.
I have a idea.
How about we switch, okay? I want three naps, nine hot meals, bubble baths and back massages every day while you go out and slave on double shifts.
Hey, I'm working my butt off here.
Yeah? How you feeling? Like a punching bag.
Feel that? Yes.

Yes, except now it has a direct link to this one, which I'm gonna put in the nursery.
Free baby monitor.
Is that legal? Yeah yeah.
I just I I gave the phone a dynamic ip, right? And then I set up our home system to work as a remote c Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, you don't care, okay.
Thank you.
Have I ever told you how much I love you? No, I don't think so.
Well, you're gonna have to remind me to get around to that someday.
Who is it? Mike.
Hey, Mike.
What's going on? Jus, I need to talk to you.
It's serious.
It's actually a really bad time right now, Mike.
I'm headed to work.
I've got an afternoon shift.
Please, man.
I'm serious, Mike.
I'm getting into my car right now.
No, you're not.
Hang on.
Justin I know.
What am I gonna do? It's Mike.
I'll see you tonight.
Ladies! Donn Look at that.
How was your weekend? It was great, but I missed your smiling faces.
Two milks? Yes, thank you.
Winnie, black? Thank you.
All right, Sam, ice-cap.
Cheers, boss.
How was your soul-searching? Good, thanks.
Oh, yeah? You find one? Thank you.

Hi, Donna.
How are you? Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
How you feeling? Oh, come on.
Come on, let's walk.
Oh, make a muscle.
Oh, that's nice! I'll take these to Ed and Wordy.
Uh, no.
It's okay.
I'll do it.
$20, 000? I can put something together.
I can sell some stuff.
It wouldn't be an issue.
Mike, there's no way.
I don't have that kind of money.
I know, I know, I know.
I just figured, you know, you work at the bank, maybe you could transfer some money.
Maybe I could what, Mike? What do you think could do? I'm a button pusher.
I don't authorize loans to gambling addicts.
Yeah, well, then maybe you can push the right buttons.
Oh, I don't believe this.
It's temporary, Jus.
It's gonna take a couple of days.
You know, we don't hear from you in six months, and we think, you know, thank God, he's finally got his act together.
I know.
I know.
I know.
I wouldn't be coming to you unless I was desperate, okay? Who are these guys, Mike? I don't know.
I don't know.
They just showed up.
I've never seen them before.
All of a sudden, the ten grand that I owe is now 20.
And I'm scared, man.
Justin, I'm scared.
I can't do this.
It's numbers, man.
This is too much.
It's not legal.
You're all that I have.
You don't do this Mike, come on.
If you do not do this, and then this time tomorrow, they're gonna take me out.
Is that what you want? Is that what you want?! Justin, these guys these guys are crazy, man.
You still have that Bravelink account I set up for you, right? Write down your account number and pin.
I can get into the system and make a deposit.
I'll bypass the ATM withdrawal limit.
I knew you'd think of something, man.
Mike, this is not free money, okay? Anything you take out, you have to put back.
Trust me, okay? Mike? This is the last time.
Okay, go.
I'll call you when it's done.
Ginger.
That should help.
Maya.
With the morning sickness.
There's ginger tea and a peppermint rub.
Thanks, Brenda.
I'm sure she'll appreciate it.
You okay, kiddo? 'Cause this stuff'll help you, too, if you're freaked out about the little one.
No, no.
I'm good, thanks.
Bren, I'm I'm really, thank you very much.
It's in your account.
You up for a high school career show-and-tell? Yeah.
I'm thinking about sending Jules with you.
What, you think she's ready? Well, she passed her re-qualifying tests with a perfect score.
So her and sam on the same team? Talked to both of them, thing's over.
It's not that simple.
They're professionals.
What about Donna? A team is seven.
I got to make a choice.
Stin? Some guy out at customer service says he really needs to see you.
What the hell are you doing here, Mike? Jus, there's a change of plan.
What? They want more.
$500, 000 into this account.
Oh, are you crazy, Mike? I can't do that.
Jus, don't panic and stay calm.
Okay? I was just sent this.
Justin, please.
They want their money by 6:00.
But they say they'll they'll kill me if you don't do it.
One hour, then she dies.
Oh, my God.
Maya.
How? They must have followed me to your place, okay? Jus, I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
We have to call the cops.
You do that you do that, and they'll kill her.
You just need to send the money, and they're gonna let her go.
It's not that easy! You already did it once, right? So you can do it again.
It's too late.
They tripped the alarm.
They tripped the alarm.
Cops are on the way.
Okay, look, we have to keep them from coming in.
You need to keep them out until you're done.
That's the only choice we have.
That's the only choice we have.
Everyone down! Everybody down on the ground.
Do it now.
Lock the door! Do it now! He's got a gun.
Close the blinds! You! You are gonna listen to me, and you are gonna do everything that I say! Bravelink financial, King and Cooper.
Single armed gunman, multiple hostages.
First responder? Just over there, sir.
How many hostages? Don't know.
A dozen or so.
He closed the blinds, so we can't see in.
Okay.
Upstairs empty? We cleared the building just in case.
Access is through a fire door in the alley.
Okay, thanks.
Keep it contained.
How's it look, Eddie? No sierra shot.
The front do is too exposed.
We're going to go in through the back.
It's a strange place to hit, internet bank.
No cash.
Yeah, this guy's an amateur.
Hasn't done his homework.
Or he never expected to carry anything out with him.
Right.
Lewis, I need the building plans.
Copy that.
Okay, Spike, let's get eyes inside.
See what's going on behind those curtains.
Copy that.
What the hell are you doing with gun, Mike? I borrowed it, friend of a friend.
Told you they were serious.
Mike, who are these people? Look look, we're on camera.
You look like a hostage, okay? You let me take the blame for this.
It'll probably work out okay.
This is crazy.
When you have hostages, when you have hostages, they give you some space.
Okay? You have time to do your thing.
Two minutes, we're done.
Maya's safe.
Come on.
No, no, no, no, no, listen.
We talk to the cops "We talk to the cops"? Tell them what? I don't know who these guys are.
And I don't know where they took her.
Now, you heard what they said.
If they don't get the money by 6:00, Maya dies.
Pick it up! Hey, this is Sergeant Gregory Parker.
I'm with the police strategic response unit.
Who am I speaking to? This is, um this is Mike McKewon.
And I'm in this alone.
First contact with subject, 5:17 p.
m.
A bank robber who gives up his name? Run it.
And see if he's got a cell phone.
Well, Mike, just want you to know that I'm here to help you.
But first, I need to know that everyone in there's okay.
Everyone's fine.
And they'll stay that way as long as you keep your distance.
Okay, Mike, but first Yeah, you just stay out.
You stay out and nobody gets hurts.
All right, Mike, just stay on the phone with me Hey, Eddie, you hear that? Yeah, he wants time.
Yeah, but for what? What do you got, buddy? We're going to go in through the back.
Sam and Wordy are going to enter the fire exit and extract the hostages.
Donna and I are going to go down the central staircase.
Okay, that sounds good.
Spike, we need eyes in.
Come on.
Security system's got extra firewalls.
It's hard to get access from outside the building.
Downloading the codes now, eyes in five.
What? Wh what's wrong? The system's locked me out.
Uh, bypass it.
I've tried.
I've tried.
It's completely shut down.
Mr.
Aguinaldo, you got to help me.
Please.
Look, don't make me hurt your friend.
I can't help you.
Network shuts down when the alarm goes off.
Security protocol in case this happens.
No transfers in or out.
Okay, well, what about the, the override codes to reboot the system? I don't have those.
Then who does?! You?! You got them?! How about you?! What about you? Take it easy, all right? They don't have them.
T tenth floor.
Only the execs have the codes on the tenth floor.
Yeah? Looks like you're done.
No, everything's under control.
We just had a little setback.
I see the setback.
It's all over my tv.
It's over.
We're going to cut our losses.
what do you mean, "it's over"? It's not No! No! No no no, no! Please! Please! Listen! You'll get your money, okay? You said 6:00.
That was before you had cops all over your ass.
I will get it to you! I just need some time.
Time to talk to the cops.
No.
No no no, I won't.
I can prove it to you.
Okay? Um, do you have a comouter? Yeah.
Okay, I'm going to send you a web address.
Okay, please, give me two minutes.
You can watch everything from there.
I'll call you right back.
What's going on? I got to buy some trust.
I'll be back.
Nobody move.
Mike McKewon.
He's our guy.
He's got a record.
Mostly petty stuff.
Nothing violent: B&S, possession with intent to sell, credit card fraud.
Guy's all over the map.
One thing in common, though: Fast cash.
So you think we're dealing with an addict? Well, scores every few months.
He's feeding some kind of habit or he's paying off some loans.
Spike, come on.
Show starts in three, two What's he doing? You seeing this Eddie? Yeah.
Looks like our guy's letting his guard down.
Or waiting for something.
Won't be waiting long.
We're going in.
Yes! You got it? Yeah, I got it.
Okay, I've tapped you into the cctv so you can see everything now.
We start talking to the cops, you will know it.
Okay.

You make sure you keep your promise.
Hey, you got a problem.
Justin: Damn it.
Okay, okay okay, okay I'll take care of it, all right?Just don't hurt her, please? Hostages are in range.
Preparing distraction.
On your go, Eddie.

I said don't come any closer or I shoot him! Please! He'll do it! Jus, they've got our hostages.
You've got me, so just keep cool.
Yeah.
Calmly and quickly leave the building.
Keep your heads down.
There's no way out, jus.
I'm going to jail.
They got guys on the inside.
I'm dead, man.
This is not about you.
This is about maya.
There's no way out.
We need police protection.
We've got to talk.
Maya they're watcng.
Okay, Mike, we all want this to end peacefully, so just put down the gun.
All right, just put it down, and we can all we can all walk out of here.
It's not looking good for you.
Hector? It's time to send a message.

Jus Mike they're watching.
There's no way out.
Jus, we're done.
We're done.
We're done.
don't worry, buddy.
Justin please! Don't let Mike give up! They say they'll hurt me and the baby.
it's not over! Justin Stage has the weapon.
Repeat, hostage has the weapon.
- Damn it.
- Back off! And don't interfere! No solution.
This is not over! Obstruction.
No solution.
Talk to me, boss.
Team one, stand down.
Fall back.
Fall back.
Copy that.
What's going on? You know something we don't? Yeah, they're not the threat, Eddie.
We've just intercepted that cell phone call.
Go ahead, Lou.
Justin, please.
Don't let Mike give up! They say they'll hurt me and the baby.
Man, that was crazy.
You son of a bitch! You were going to give up! What are you talking about? You got us into this and you were just going to bail?! Jus They're going to kill Maya and the baby.
What do you mean "baby"? What baby?! What baby? Maya's pregnant? How could you do this to me, Mike? Jus, I How could you possibly do this to me?! I didn't know, Jus.
I'm sorry, okay? Justin, I'm sorry! You're always sorry! And you always call me to bail you out! Yeah, I do.
I make mistakes, okay? I know I do.
I make lots of mistakes! I know! I'm sorry I didn't have the luck to be born like you with the luck that you have! What else do you want me to say? The next time you screw up, call someone else.
There is no one else.
You know that.
Let's, uh let's just get the codes and do this.
So anything you can come up with would be really helpful.
Did they seem to be familiar with one another? A Mike McKewon and an employee identified by his manager Justin Fraser.
Justin, please don't let Mike give up! This is a video link they just sent Justin.
They said they'd hurt me and the baby.
Okay, new deal, Ed.
These guys are acting under duress.
Someone's holding the employee's wife.
Colleagues say she's seven months pregnant.
It also sounds like they seem to know each other, boss.
If they know each other, what's their connection? Lewis, did you track the source? Yeah, prepaid cell, no gps.
Manager said they were trying to wire money into an offshore account, but they didn't have the right codes.
They still think they can do it.
And that's why they won't give up.
If someone had Sophie, would you? Winnie, Mike McKewon and Justin Fraser.
We need a connection.
See who could be pulling their strings and from where asap.
Copy.
Boss, whoever it is, I think they're watching.
That's what Justin was doing.
He uplinked the security system to an FTP.
If you give someone the web address they can see what we see.
The guy's pretty good.
Want me to interrupt the feed, block the bad guy's view? Negative.
Ed, this is why Justin told us not to interfere.
The kidnapper will keep the wife alive as long as he thinks he'll still get his money.
I want to believe the wife's still alive.
And we can use this to our advantage.
So we keep them in the game till we figure out where they are? Yeah.
All right.
Sarge, uniforms confirm no sign of Maya Fraser at the house.
And they report signs of forced entry.
Thanks, Winnie.
I got a hit on your guy Justin Fraser.
In crimal record? No, family services.
Go ahead.
Okay, both parents deceased.
Looks like he was 13.
He was transferred to the custody of a Jack Fraser.
Uncle, in Brampton.
Okay, let's get ahold of the uncle.
See if he can tell us what Justin's got himself involved in.
You got it.
So how are you going to find these codes we need? The override codes change every few weeks, so the execs have got to write them down somewhere.
What are we looking for? It's, uh, it's usually something personal.
Like a like a birthday or a cat? Justin's a good kid.
Smart.
My brother's son.
He came to live with me after he lost his parents.
So what happened to the parents? Uh car accident.
As far as you know, Justin isn't involved in illegal activities? Well, he studied his butt off to get where he is, Maya's expecting No, I I don't see him throwing that away.
Well, are they okay? What do you know about Mike McKewon? Oh, so this is about Mike.
No.
Look, I had three kids of my own, okay? I couldn't take them both.
Besides, he was 17.
He was old enough to be on his own.
So you're saying Justin and Mike are brothers? No, no, half.
His mom remarried my brother when Mike was two or three.
Then they had Justin.
But the kid's always been trouble.
Not even my brother could handle him.
There was no way I could take that on.
So after the accident, Justin got a home, and Mike was left to look out for himself? Yeah.
Are you in? Yeah.
How'd you know the name of the cat? I didn't.
The password is on the back.
Okay, all right, it's scanning the system for the codes now.
Once we get them, we take them down to the secure servers in the basement, input them, send the cash.
Then they let Maya go.
How long has Maya been pregnant? Seven months.
You got a boy or a girl? We don't know, Mike.
We were going to wait.
I'm sorry.
I've been working on the video attachment for Mike's phone.
Justin please.
They want their money by 6:00 or they say they'll they'll kill me.
You hear that? Sirens.
Sounds like a cruiser.
They want their money by 6:00 And an ambulance.
Or they say they'll kill The message was sent at 5:01 p.
m.
I got Winnie to send me the info on all cruiser and ambulance calls at 5:01.
Three cruisers, one ambulance.
Say she's downtown.
She could either be here, here or here Wellington and John.
Club district.
Exactly.
Nice work, Spike.
And here, there's more.
We've got a corner of a window.
Arched window, stained glas it could be a church.
No, not at Wellington and John.
No, no, no, that's the Viper a night club.
I did a drug case in there.
You sure about this? Yeah, that makes sense.
I mean, most of the clubs in that area are hot with drug traffic.
Mostly gang controlled.
A gang would have what it takes to pull this off? That is the Viper.
I know the windows.
Club's five minutes from here.
Okay, Winnie, let's deploy team four to Viper nightclub.
No, sorry.
Team four was dispatched 20 minutes ago, sarge.
Domestic gun call in Rexdale.
I'll put team three on standby.
It'll take them at least half an hour just to deploy.
All right, we can be there in five.
Our hands are tied here.
Besides, the threat's at the club.
Okay, you go.
Lou, Spike and I will alpha here.
Lewis, call guns and gangs.
See if anything flags.
Copy that.
All right, the rest of us bravo at the club.
Fast is good.
We got a 6:00 deadline.
Let's stay off the news.
Wait I got it.
Boss, got a call going out.
Yeah.
Okay, we've got them the override codes to get into the system.
Now you're going to get your money, but I want to hear her voice.
Spike, where would you go with override codes? Basement.
System would have to be rebooted from the secure servers there.
There's cctv in the basement hallways, but there's no eyes in the server room.
Okay, well, eyesould be good.
Turn the lights off in the hallways.
Got it.
Eyes flying in.
Don't.
No! No! No, please! Please, no! We're gonna do a drive-by check for sentries.
If it's clear, we're gonna stage in the alley south of Adley, full-on stealth approach.
Bad news.
Guns and gangs says Viper's controlled by Huesos de tigre.
South american bangers.
That fits.
They use someone on the inside to hit up the bank, and then they use kidnapping to make sure they cooperate.
Le Gang unit's been profiling these guys since they moved in here three weeks ago.
My my baby! Please! This M.
O.
goes one of two ways.
They either don't get the money and kill the hostage and two? My baby, please please! They get the money.
And they still kill the hostage.
We'll cross between the buildings.
We'll access through the roof.
Copy that.
We've I.
D.
d two of them.
Okay, there's an Oscar Cardoza and a Hector Puente.
Just the two? No, they say there's four, maybe five, start-up crew.
Could it be more.
There's no way to know for sure.
Sam, you're sierra.
Copy that.
I'm in the basement and approaching the server room.
Deploying camera.
Eyes and ears.
How am I doing? Subject's two floors away.
How far down? The basement.
Move.
Seven minutes.
They're here.
Subject's approaching the main server.
You seeing this? Got it.
Stayedceal, Spike.
Or the bad guy pulls the plug.
Copy, boss.
That's the server? I got to enter the codes and reboot.
We get into the system and make the transfer.
Can you do that in seven minutes? If you shut up, yes.
Wordy.
You're good? Getting there.
Got it.
Bravo team going in.
What's going on? Main frame's powering up.
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
Okay, here we go.
Okay, he's got it open.
He's in.
What? What's happening, man? I can't see you.
I'm working on it.
It's 6:00.
No, it's not.
I've got three minutes left.
Don't play with me, man.
Look, what do you want?! What, do you want a million dollars in your account or a mess on the floor? I am going as fast as I can, so let me do this! Single subject.
Armed.
What about a distraction? Bring him to us.
One less inside.
Jus, it's time.
Jus? I know, I know.
Come on, come on, come on.
Done.
No, no, no, no, no! What is it? Justin, what's going on? Justin?! Justin, what is it? It's over.
It's over? Spike? Sounds like he didn't get through.
Maybe the codes were expired, the system time-bombed Bravo team, deal might have fallen through.
What's your 20? One floor away.
Boss, got a call going out.
I'm ready.
But I'm not doing it until I know Maya's alive.
So will you put her on the phone? Justin? Hey, sweetie.
Are you okay? Did they did ? No.
I'm okay.
You got their money? I tried.
I did.
I know you did.
I know.
Have I ever told you how much I love you? Okay, you talked.
You'll have your money in a minute.
So your brother was right.
What? Spike, stay alert.
Mike McKewonay be closer to this gang than we thought.
Copy, boss.
He's always talking about you, man.
You're the smart one, right? You know him? He wasn't doing too good today, man, you know? And then he tells us, "my brother Justin, he works for a bank, " and that you'd take care of it like you always do.
He's a lucky guy to have a brother like you.
Spike, stay close.
We got a situation.
Jus, Jus, look, there's gotta be something else we can do, right? You know? We can do something else, man.
Come on.
Just get back in there and, um right, Jus? I'll take care of things like I always do.
Jus, man, what the hell, man? Get the, get the, get the gun off me.
You said you didn't know them.
They knew you.
And you told them I worked at a bank.
No, no, man, that's not what happened.
Stop lying to me! Spike, he's not picking up.
You get in there.
We're on our way.
No, that's not what happened.
Sru! Drop your weapon! My wife is dead, so you you do what you need to do.
It doesn't matter anymore.
Justin, we're working on getting your wife out safely.
You told them that I would do this for you, because Because I always cave, right? Because I always say yes.
They were gonna kill me, man.
So you sell me out? And Maya? Okay, I do know those guys, I know 'em.
But I never thought they'd take Maya, man.
I didn't even know about the half a million.
So you're just stupid.
And now you've killed my wife and my baby.
Justin, we know where your wife is.
We're here to help you.
My team is working on getting her right now.
You're lying.
No, no.
We're doing everything we can to make sure she comes out of there safely, but hurting your brother's not gonna help anything.
This is his fault.
This is your fault! He wrecks everything es touch! Blaming him's not the answer, my man.
You both lost your parents.
I can't even imagine what that was like.
And then you both had to go your separate ways, but you got to stay with family.
Mike wasn't so lucky, was he? He made his own luck.
He's been making his luck ever since.
Yeah, I'm just saying from his point of view, you got the roof over your head, you got to go to school.
So when he's in trouble he comes to you because you owe him, right? So he messes up, you always help him.
He counts on you, and you never let him down.
So, this is my fault? I think your only fault is that you're always helping him.
It's hard not to help someone you love, though, right? So, come on, my man.
Let someone help you for once.
We're gonna get your wife out of there.
We're gonna get your wife out.
Get your hands on your head! Hands on your head! Hands on your head! Boss, we're at the door.
Answer the phone.
Spread the word, man, 'cause this is what happens when you break your promise with Huesos de tigres! No, please don't.
Don't do anythingo her, please.
You listening? No, no, no! 'Cause this is what it sounds like! Sru! Get down on the ground! Stay down on the ground or you will be shot! Do not move! Do not move! Put it down.
Put the gun down.
You heard me.
Put it down.
Back off or I'll kill the bitch! No solution.
Sierra No solution.
It's over.
What's going on?! What happened?! Hostage secured.
We got her.
It's okay.
We got you.
It's okay.
You're all right.
Let me hear her voice.
Let me hear her.
Eddie, put her on.
How's Donna? She done with Siu? You know, we were lucky to have her there today.
We're lucky to have her, You know? And I've been thinking, she's as good as any one of us.
Any one of us, Greg.
Maybe even better.
And you're asking why I'not putting the best person for the job on the team? It's crossed my mind.
Hey, team's alchemy.
It's more than the sum of its parts, right? Donna is great, but Jules is Jules is family, and I get that.
And I'm behind you a hundred percent, and you know that.
And I will welcome her back with open arms.
She's a great team member.
But I gotta ask you: when the call comes in, are we sending in a Swat team or are we sending in family? Got a sec? Yeah, come on in.
Hey, you were excellent out there today.
Excellent, and I want you to know that.
Thank you.
Donna Can I make this easier on you? Team three's got a spot for me.
They say, got my name all over it.
