There's one small problem, Deputy Morse.
No one in the history of Spiga
has ever requested a transfer from Milwaukee to Sioux Falls.
It's about quality of life.
It's jumping off the corporate ladder.
Makes me think you're cracking up.
And that...
that'd be a big problem.
My wife would prefer a smaller town.
You just had a kid, right?
Mine are almost grown.
I remember when they were just little bundles of meat,
screaming till I thought I'd go crazy.
That's what kids do.
You ever worry you just might snap?
No.
I heard that about you Oil War vets.
You're brutal and efficient.
But then you start to see threats where there aren't any.
Is that what happened with Captain Berman?
You got overzealous maintaining security in your unit,
and you just snapped?
I was cleared to return to my full duties.
And no one has ever questioned my loyalty.
Mm. [chuckles]
Certainly not Elizabeth Krauss.
You're one of the best interrogators I've ever seen.
But there's no Quiet Room in Sioux Falls, is there?
It'd be a waste of your talents, don't you think?
I have other talents.
Ah, what we do in this room, Julian...

But we do it for the good of the company.
All due respect, sir...
I think I've done enough.

For $50,000 blackcoin, she stays that way.
We're lucky he asked for a ransom... pay it.
We'll initiate containment-recovery protocol immediately.
Whoa, wait.
I'm sending an account number.
We'll put a tracker on the transfer.
When he opens the receipt, we'll have a location.
This isn't a corporate abduction.
A CNR isn't necessary.
You have 20 minutes.
This looks like a low-level grab-and-bag, sir.
Can't take the risk.
CNR is in effect now.
Assemble the tactical team...
immediately.
We don't get the money,
bad things start happening to Amani. Got it?
Just authorize the transfer.
Are you listening?
Elizabeth.
Hey.
You can send the money,
or we can escalate this thing.
No.
I'm not paying.
- She said no. - What?
- She said no. - Her mom said no?

She lied to protect her identity.
- He did, sir. - I don't care what he said.
If you'd authorized payment,
the TAC team would be en route.
And Laura would end up dead.
You don't know that.
The priority for a CNR
is to protect corporate intellectual property,
not save the lives of kidnapping victims.
We'll do our best to make sure she comes home safe.
