Flashpoint s05e13 Episode Script

Keep the Peace (2)

I vow to be true, always.
I vow to always be yours.
Yeah! Previously on "flashpoint": Team, we're looking at another bomb that just went off downtown.
We're looking at terror.
Steve! - Ed! - Where is he? Phone signal's here, man, it's gotta be him.
Clark! Clark! Donna, if there's no timer on the bomb, then you can wait till I get there! No, I can handle it.
How many wires do you see? Uh Eighteen.
Donna, how's our subject? Quiet, co-operative - could be the gun on his head.
Boss, this make any sense to you? If he was gonna blow himself up, why didn't he already do it? This is your very last chance.
Tell me where the detonator is right now! Right now! What're you looking at? What do you see, Donna? I got a blinking camera in the ceiling.
Get outta there now! Donna, what's happening? Eddie Move! Boss! Boss! I'm okay.
Holt wasn't the bomber, he was the bait, Eddie.
She's gone, Eddie.
She was right in front of him.
Sonofabitch! Sonofabitch! Clark! Clark! Steve, get in here! Get the oxygen mask in there! Clark! Clark! Let's clear the door! Let's clear it! Pull up! Get in there! Clark, I'm here.
You're gonna be okay, buddy, I'm right here.
Okay, you're gonna be okay.
Clark? Okay, let's get a board! I need a board! Okay, let's get that board! Let's get that board down here! Okay, I'm right with you.
Okay, okay.
Okay.
All right.
What What happened? You're okay, you're okay.
We're gonna take care of you, all right? They got him! Guys, I got him.
We're good.
We're good here.
That's great.
You stay with him, Eddie.
You gotta stay back.
My people need to see if the structure of the building's compromised first.
All right.
Okay? Oh God Hey! I need your cruiser, there's another bomb.
Hey, I told you to stay outside! There's nothing you can do to help here.
Look, my people are still in there.
I'm sorry.
It was over in a second.
Supporting wall is compromised.
It's not safe.
I'll show you another way in.
All right, boys, let's go! Got it.
Yeah.
Okay, easy.
We got you.
We got you, okay.
- Easy, easy.
- Easy, guys.
Hey.
He's gonna be okay.
He's getting an IV started, and, you know, he's okay, he's conscious.
Tell me everything, don't leave anything out.
Soph, he's got a broken leg, a broken wrist.
I think he's got some broken ribs.
I'm telling you everything I know.
Is he okay? Where are you taking him? I'll meet you there! No, no.
Soph, stay at home with Izzie.
Just stay safe.
It's not over, okay? I'm gonna take him to the hospital, we're gonna get him x-rayed, we're gonna check him out.
Everything's gonna be fine.
Just tell him I love him, okay? - Ed, we're ready to move.
- Okay, Soph, I gotta go.
Eddie, please, be careful.
I will, okay? I love you.
Bye.
We have to get out of here right now, it's not safe! Everyone out, now! We have to set a new perimeter.
We got a problem - a big problem.
I got really high readings in there.
Team one, new deal.
Okay.
Let's get you fixed up.
You ready to ride? - I'm gonna be okay? - You're gonna be fine.
You gotta go, dad.
I'm not going anywhere.
No, dad, please! You gotta get this guy.
Ed, coming or going? No, hang on, hang on.
Buddy, I'm not going Dad, no, okay? You gotta do this! I'm gonna be fine.
Please? Are you sure? Yes.
Okay.
Okay, I'll see you at home.
I love you.
Your mom and I love you.
I love you too.
Team one, I'm coming to you.
What's happening? We're not allowed to cross the perimeter.
Boss, what's going on? Team, just hang tight.
Boss! No, don't! Don't! Stay back! Why? What's going on? Exposed to radiation.
It was a dirty bomb.
All right, guys, you know the drill.
I've gotta go offline, get scrubbed, get blood tests.
I need you to stay on task.
Do you copy? Copy that, boss.
Now, someone dropped a trail of breadcrumbs leading us right here, leading us to the wrong man.
He watched as this man died.
Someone hated Anson Holt personally.
Holt was a sadist; Sadists have victims.
And he was arrested for abusive experiments - Officer! - I'm not done yet! They were performed right here.
The manifesto said it began here; we're looking for one of his students.
What just happened? - He just signed off.
- Why? His headset's contaminated.
He's gotta get himself cleaned up.
We can't just drop contact.
You're right.
Okay, guys, let's do this! Sam, coordinate with the military.
We need more boots on the ground now! Okay, outer layers off.
Equipment, cell phones, gloves Anything that's exposed stays here.
The material released by the device is Caesium 137.
You're gonna be taking one gram of Prussian Blue.
It binds to the Caesium, moves it faster through your digestive system.
I'm gonna be sick.
Okay, okay.
Here.
What's your name, son? Jason.
Do you know how dirty bombs work, Jason? They spray radioactive material, contaminate the area.
They spread fear; That's the bomber's point.
The good news is, fear is easy to treat.
A dose of facts usually gets you results.
How long were you in there? Not too long.
Okay, demron blankets.
You wrap them tight around your body.
But we were already exposed.
It's all right, it protects others from exposure to us.
It's just a precaution.
So this was hidden at the prof's house.
It looks like Holt kept the video archives of his experiment.
Subjects Eight students.
Okay, it's a start.
Get these names to Winnie.
Firewalled.
The video server he was using in there, I can't trace it, I can't trace the IP.
I have no idea where he was watching this from.
Yeah? Go ahead, Winnie.
Colonel, wind's That means from here to the lake, we've gotta keep everyone inside their houses.
Windows shut, vents sealed.
Duct tape, plastic, whatever's available.
We're upwind on the north side.
You can stage here.
Anything comes in contact with the ash or the debris, seal it in a plastic bag, shower off immediately! Guys, we can cross "big banking" off the list; team two just defused a bomb at the Hudson Trust head office.
Okay, okay, good news.
Team one, the bomber's just called 911 and boss is offline.
Copy that, Winnie.
Jules, you take this.
Okay, Winnie, patch me through.
This is Jules Callaghan with the Police Strategic Response Unit.
Where's my other puppet? He's in the field right now.
You got what you wanted; The manifesto's out there.
You're gonna be famous.
You want to tell us what your name is? Why would I make it that easy? That's right, the last time you made it that easy, we walked right into it.
You sent the manifesto from a smartphone spoofed to Anson Holt's name.
Very good.
Then pointed us straight here to the lab.
And Holt walked right into it, too.
And then you strapped a bomb on him, made him watch the news, made him watch what you'd done.
While I watched him sit there too scared to even breathe! You've proven your point.
I think the five remaining bombs are redundant.
How'd you know there were five? Where are they? You think people know fear yet? This is nothing.
This isn't fear, this is an inconvenience.
People still have illusions someone's looking out for them.
Police, paramedics, government, doctors Authority figures.
You think you can trust them? It's all lies, it's smoke, and when people understand that, when they realize no one's looking out for you Then they'll know fear.
Then they'll grow up.
Five down, five to go.
Confirming a total of ten bombs, but still no closer to who this guy is.
Maybe a little closer.
Those eight participants in Holt's study, how many of them know how to set up a firewall? We're looking for the one with the most security measures.
But four of the subject's students have moved to other cities.
Four of them are still local, three of them have open IP's, no security.
Leaving one Marcus Faber.
Winnie, we need an address! Marcus Faber, Twenty-five years old, parents deceased.
He dropped out of Brookfield University, but before that he actually attended schools for the gifted as a child.
He skipped grades twice.
Well, any trouble with the law? Six months in jail for assault, charges for vagrancy, that's it.
Does he work? Uh no tax records filed, so nothing on the books.
Here, he took a job three months ago as a telephone technician.
That lines up with the bomb's wiring! And he would've had the access to plant them.
This has gotta be our guy.
Thank you.
Sergeant Parker! This came from SRU.
Thank you.
Oh, thank you, Winnie! Thank you, son.
Let's go, guys, hard and fast.
Let's move! Let's move now! Go, go, go, go, go! Police! Police! Get down! Police! Police! Clear! Clear! Okay, team, let's tear this place apart! We've gotta get ahead of him here Equipment, plans, anything! Right here! We've got a map on the wall! Has he marked the targets? - Negative! - Keep looking! What's this? Spike, bomb components! Yep.
Caesium 137.
Same stuff Hazmat found.
Trace amounts It's not dangerous at this level.
H8, K6, G11.
Some kind of code? Is that some kind of datasheet? This is old school.
These are the targets.
Map coordinates.
The 911 call centre.
H8, Brookfield University.
We got the Federal Building, City Hall.
K6, Hudson Trust, that was team two's package.
Okay, team, I'm here, I heard the last part of that.
We've got the five remaining targets, and the subject is Marcus Faber.
G11, police station on College Street! EMS headquarters, and there's a TV station.
Okay, what about a timeline? He's on a half-hour schedule.
The lab was the last one to go, which one's next? There's no indication.
All right, team, I'm scrubbed.
I'm not waiting for my blood test.
You've got too much ground to cover.
Greg, you wait until the blood work gets back, you hear me? We got this.
Okay.
All right, Jules, let's get inside this guy's head, then.
We've got video on Holt's experiment.
Marcus was one of his students.
I'm gonna stream it to you.
It's gonna take a minute though 'cause there's a lot to upload.
Copy that.
And another student, Tony James, lives close by.
I'm gonna go talk to him, get his take on Marcus.
Okay now, the rest of us, we're gonna split into rapid intervention teams: One SRU, one EMS, one firefighter.
Each team takes a target, we find the bomb, we defuse it.
Spike's gonna talk us through the tech.
- Let's go.
- Wait a minute! We're short one bomb.
What do you mean, Spike? Ten targets.
He's written down nine locations.
We're missing one.
Where's the last bomb? Guys, we need you outta here now! Copy that.
Radiation level? Uh, clean so far.
Okay, the floorplans have the server on the second floor.
Are we good? Yeah, it's all good.
Let's get it done.
Team one, status? Bravo team at the emergency medical services building.
Charlie team at Adelaide Systems.
Delta team, we're at the TV station.
- Team - Boss? I know this is hard.
We're split up, we don't know what we're walking into.
But today's like any day; We walk through doors together, we're in each other's ears, and we've got each other covered.
And even though I'm not there with you, my hand is on your backs, and don't forget that.
It works both ways, Greg.
Negative for radiation.
We're good.
Okay.
Clear out, guys, only one man downrange.
Spike, I got a picture, it's coming to you.
Okay, silver lining, our bomber's a creature of habit.
It's the same device he used at the call centre.
Okay, guys, radiation levels? Negative for bravo.
Negative for Charlie.
Okay, guys, I'm the only one that needs to be here.
Okay, timers! Mine's a little over thirty-five minutes.
Ed, what do you got? I got fourteen minutes.
Twenty-three and change.
He's picking up the pace.
Guys, it looks like I got the short straw.
Five minutes and thirty seconds.
Okay, guys, I need you to get outta here now, make sure this building's clear! Five minutes What the hell am I doing here? Okay, Spike, just focus on Sam, okay? Spike, we're gonna follow along.
Just focus on Sam.
Yeah.
Spike, what happened to Lou was a sacrifice he chose.
It's the reason you're still with us.
But that's not going to happen today, you know that, right? Yeah, I know that, boss.
Okay.
Okay, Spike, what do we do? All right, Sam, guys, take out your meters, and I want you to check the resistance, okay? Then I need you to take out your tac knives.
Marcus was a couple of years younger.
He was gifted, and, I don't know, different.
How? Awkward, vulnerable.
You met him through Anson Holt's study? We were all honoured to be chosen.
I mean, there were fistfights just to get into this guy's seminars.
What'd you do when you realized that the study was a bit more than you bargained for? He told us, "what happens in the lab, stays in the lab," and we did what he said.
I mean, this is Anson Holt.
He made us tell him what we loved, what was precious, what gave us hope, what we Eyes up! What our secrets were, what we believed in.
He took it in.
Each of us had to sit in the "hot seat" Eyes up! Keep your eyes on the monitor! Camera in our face, with all the other students watching, while he tore us apart.
And then Holt started giving us medication.
We never knew if it was real or placebo.
He made us watch these DVDs.
- Eyes up! - Torture Keep your eyes focused! Snuff films.
It was Look up! It was sickening.
Tony, I need you to stay focused.
Tony, stay focused! Tony! I can't! Keep your eyes on the monitors! He's just a little kid! - He's what?! - He's a little boy! He is what?! A victim! He's a victim! That's right, Tony.
He's a victim.
He made us watch them again, and again, 'til you keep seeing them all day, and all night, and I couldn't stand it! They found my son in his residence.
He'd taken a bottle of sleeping pills.
I brought him home, I finally got him to talk.
I talked to a lawyer, I called other parents.
I tried to get a lawsuit going.
I didn't see any records of charges being laid.
The university came back with a huge settlement offer on condition of silence.
I just wanted it all to be over.
Thank you, Tony.
My name is Marcus Faber, I'm nineteen years old.
Well, I'm eighteen.
Nineteen in May.
Tell me, Marcus what do you love? Who do you think can protect you? This is fear, Marcus.
It owns you now.
You're just another victim, and you know what happens to victims, don't you? Victims get what they've got coming! - Sergeant Parker? - Yeah.
We've got the results of your blood work.
You're gonna wanna follow up, but you're a lucky man.
You're good to go.
Oh, thank you! Okay, team, how we doing? Okay, careful now, carefully put the dry ice in with the acetone.
Sam, how're you doing? I'm still trying to expose the switch.
I'm going as fast as I can.
You go as careful as you can.
Right.
Fast and careful.
- And safe.
- I know, Spike! I'm cooling it down now.
I'm under ninety seconds.
Sam, you're running out of time.
You need to get outta there, buddy.
Building's not clear.
Okay, Sam, you're not gonna have enough time to do this.
You need to get outta there right now.
Team, you just stay focused on your task.
Hey, boss, I talked to Tony James.
These kids were young, bright, eager to please, trusted authority.
He used that authority to break 'em down.
Jules, Jules, wait.
Winnie sent me the files.
They all took the settlement money.
Four of 'em left town, two of 'em are in drug rehab, and one's in jail.
You either lash out or you self-destruct.
Jules, just stop, all right? Just go to channel one.
It's Sam.
Sam, what's going on? I've got time.
Sam, no, you do not! Sam, do you need to get outta there? It's working, I've got this.
Sam! It's working; Temperature's going down.
It's minus thirty-five degrees.
Sam, you drop your tools right now, and you get yourself outta there right now! Come on Sam, listen to him! Minus thirty-eight degrees! Sam, you listen to him! It's almost there! Sam, we will not lose each other today! Sam? Sam, get out! Go! Go! Go! Go! Sam, get out of there now! Get out, Sam! Sam! Sam! Sam, talk to me.
Sam, talk to me! Okay, team team, I need you to hear me right now.
I need you to keep safe.
Spike? Spike! You listen to me, all right? We still need you, we all do, and whatever happened, you need to keep going.
You hear me? You keep going! You all do! Okay.
What the boss said, guys.
Trust me, you don't wanna do this the hard way.
Sam Braddock, you do not do that to me again.
Okay, Sam, get yourself cleaned up, all right? That's the last bomb he's gonna blow up today! Okay, guys, let's do this! Okay, Spike, temperature's dropping.
Thirty-eight, thirty-eight five, thirty-nine.
Okay, Ed, that should be frozen solid.
Spike, "should be?" No, it is, it is.
It's frozen solid.
Just lift the circuit board, cut the blue wire.
Okay Boss, the bomb is defused.
I'm on my way.
Spike, I just froze the tilt switch.
Copy that, Leah.
Same thing I told Ed.
Lift the circuit board, cut the blue wire.
Clear! Nice, Leah! I'm on my way to the stadium.
Okay, Jules, let's just cut to the chase, all right? We gotta find that last bomb.
Let's nail who this guy is.
Yeah, I'm getting mixed messages.
I'm with you.
The manifesto's all about fighting back against forces of control, like he's on some twisted mission to help people Free them from government, or whatever.
Yeah, but if you're gonna help people, you don't kill their children.
This is about Marcus being in control.
He doesn't wanna feel like a victim anymore, so he shows Holt, beats him at his own game.
Shows the world he's in control, he's the boss.
This is about Marcus being in control.
All right, I'm Marcus.
I'm gonna reduce my world to black and white.
The strong and the weak.
Jules, I think I know where the last bomb is.
I think it's right here.
The bomb's right there in the stadium? How can you be sure? I'm not, but wouldn't it explain why Marcus didn't have the location of the last bomb? Yes, and he wouldn't have known it himself until about an hour ago, when they mentioned the triage on the news.
Jules, a lot of these people can't be moved easily.
It's gonna take a lot more time than we might have.
Best chance is finding that bomb, and defusing it.
Okay, boss, if this is a last-minute target, he still could be there.
You watch yourself! Okay, just send me a photo.
Now, listen, I don't think talk is an option, okay? He's not gonna wanna be psychologized, especially by a guy in uniform.
You are everything that he hates.
Yeah, copy that.
Hey, I want you to meet me over there.
Okay, boss, we'll get a kit sent to you right away.
Meantime, your tac knife is your best friend.
See if you can get an ohm meter from a stadium tech.
This is the bomber, his name is Marcus Faber.
Keep your weapons ready.
We're looking for packages, wires, suitcases.
Check stairwells, garbage cans, vents.
It could be anything, anywhere.
All right? Communications on channel three.
Good luck.
Greg, if you're Marcus, you want maximum damage from a single bomb, right? Yeah, right.
He knows that bomb will not take that stadium down, and this is his grand finale.
Yeah.
It's gonna be dirty.
Greg, he's gonna put that bomb up somewhere high, somewhere where everyone in that stadium will be exposed.
And the city outside, Eddie.
I'll keep you posted.
It's taking way too long.
Boss, Jules and I are on the scene.
Evac's a mess here.
I've found the bomb, top level, catwalk.
You were right, Eddie.
- I'm on my way up.
- Negative, negative.
Ed, this one's definitely dirty.
I you need to clear everyone away and get everyone out of range.
Boss, are you sure? Spike, CS 137.
I'm sending you a photo.
Boss, my bomb is defused, I can be there in minutes.
Up high, maximum damage.
Caesium 137, right next to the C4.
I've got access to a timer - three minutes, forty seconds.
Officer, let's move these people back! Clear room for vehicles.
Copy that.
We need to get the most critical out now! Can you locate the power supply? Not that I can see.
Okay, it's gonna be underneath just like all the other ones.
What about the detonator, is that exposed? Not that I can see, Spike.
That's 'cause he's got it in the middle of the C4.
Okay, boss, the first thing we gotta do, we gotta make sure The anti-handling devices We gotta find those first, okay? So I want you to check for leads.
Do you see any leads going into the circuit? Yeah, stand by.
Yes! Okay, perfect.
Get the ohm meter and I want you to check that circuit.
Winnie, we need every available vehicle down here now! Get the door! Ohm meter's holding steady at nine.
It means there's no resistance in the circuit.
Yeah, is that a good thing? That's a great thing, boss.
It means there's no anti-handling devices.
There's a clear path to the detonator and the power supply.
He must've ran out of time on this bomb or something.
Step by step, what do I do next? - Boss? - Boss! I'm taking fire.
He's here, it's him! - Sam! - Right behind you! Okay, Spike, what do I do? What do I do? Get away from the bomb! Boss, are you there? Boss, you there? Yeah, just took it in the vest.
Spike, what do I do next? Just lift the cover, boss! Just lift the cover and get underneath to the power source.
Okay, Spike.
Oh! Agh! Marcus? Marcus, listen to me.
I know I'm not gonna try to talk you down, and I'm not gonna try to talk you down because I know you don't care.
Oh, you tried to hurt those around me.
You killed kids, you killed people I love, and I know you don't feel any fear anymore because your message is already out there.
That feels good, doesn't it? Your will, your messages Will live on.
Mission accomplished.
Sever the wire! Cut the wire between the power supply and the detonator.
Sorry Sorry it didn't work out because I just stopped your bomb And my team stopped your other bombs.
Your message isn't going anywhere.
Your message is going nowhere.
You're done! You're done! You stay with me! Subject neutralized.
Okay, okay, I got ya, I got ya.
We have an officer down! We need EMS to the upper level now! I repeat, officer down! - You're gonna be okay.
- Where's the medic?! We need a medic up here now! You're gonna be okay, buddy.
You stay with me, I got you.
I got you.
Stay with us, dad, we're here! Stay with us.
You did it, buddy, you defused the bomb.
Are you trying to put Spike out of a job? Huh? I got you I got you They're on their way.
We're gonna get you out of this.
Hey, you remember a couple years ago when I had to shoot Goran Tomasic, and you said to me, buddy, "you might wanna do the math on all the 'I'm fine's.
" I've never said thank you.
You're more than fine, buddy.
You're more than fine Stay with me.
No, you don't.
No, you don't! Stay here! We're not done! We're not done! No you don't! Greg, don't leave me.
You're not going anywhere! Greg, stay here! Stay here! You're staying here! Medic! Medic! And I will watch you disappear from my fortress over here and I will never understand every heart's a foreign land and I'm so afraid to so afraid to love you and I will turn my eyes away from the harsh light of your day and I have slept through pouring rain it was all that kept me sane and I'm so afraid to love you Hey! What have I told you guys about holding hands at the station.
We're off the clock boss.
Where's everybody? They're just behind.

Thank you.
He was a tough man.
Sadie! Look who's here.
