Oliver?
(groaning)
What happened to...
- Did they hurt you? - No, I'm all right.
How are you feeling?
How am I feeling?
(groaning)
Not good.
It's morning. They must've drugged us.
(groaning)
- No, don't! - Aah!
What is this?
It's a prison.
And we're trapped.
(footsteps)
- Hi. - Hi.
Did you know that dinosaurs had feathers?
No, but that's a cool fact, buddy.
Zander,
- let Mommy's friend sleep. - Okay.
Go brush your teeth for school.
Bye.
You have a kid.
How did I not know you have a kid?
Do you remember showing up here at three in the morning?
You were wasted, and you wanted to keep partying.
I would've sent you home, but I wasn't sure
you were gonna make it.
I'm sorry.
The drinking, the drugs,
that's not a regular thing for me.
Look, I don't want you to think that this is what I do all the time.
We can't see each other anymore.
I'm sorry.
Good morning.
What in the hell are you doing here at this hour of the morning?
More importantly, what the hell am I doing here?
Listen to this,
there were some hard drives in the copy store
that belonged to Sandstorm's fixer.
Now, they were mostly destroyed,
but I was able to recover data from one of them.
Look...
it's full of passports and other forgeries for Shepherd...
dozens of them.
I mean, she traveled extensively under numerous aliases.
It's... it's gonna take me a while
to map out all of her movements.
But so far...
there was only one fake passport for Roman.
And travel documents indicate that Shepherd
- took Roman on a trip with her. - So it must have been important.
They went to the Bahamas a few years back.
There and back in just one day.
Roman was only on the ground for four hours.
Security cameras caught him going into a bank.
There's a lot of dodgy banking that goes on in the Bahamas...
you figured out what he was doing there?
Not exactly, their privacy laws are strict.
But there's an insurance log
that monitors how much money is in the bank
at any given time.
And during the time Roman was inside the bank,
$33 million was emptied out of a trust fund.
"Beneficiary deceased."
So, what? You thinking Roman killed someone
to access to their money?
And used the money to fund Sandstorm's terror plots.
We should see if Roman can remember what he did with the money,
and then maybe... we can track it.
All right, let's go talk to Roman.
You're here early.
Our appointment's not for another 30 minutes.
Uh, yeah, I just wanted to talk to you.
That's what appointments are for.
No, I mean, thank you for your help,
but I think I'm done with therapy.
What makes you think that?
Borden is dead.
And I think that I'm ready to move on with my life.
Will you sit, please?
No, thank you, I can't stay.
Were you there when Borden died?
- Yes. - How did he die?
Those headaches that I was having,
those ones that you said were psychosomatic?
They weren't.
Sandstorm drilled a hole in my tooth,
and they planted a bug in there,
so the pain that I was having was just purely physical.
So...
even after he left,
Borden continued to invade your privacy,
even your body.
That's a horrible violation.
Surely that's upsetting to you.
It isn't anything to me.
It's over. I'm fine.
What do they want?
Why aren't they telling us anything?
Oliver, this is all my fault.
And I'm sorry you got caught up in it.
What are you talking about?
It's a long story, but I have enemies.
Powerful, dangerous ones.
And I'm sure they're behind this.
You have enemies? What enemies?
Look, there's no time to explain.
We just have to get out of here.
Well, I'm not sure that's a good idea.
They could kill us if we try to escape.
Or we do escape, and then we freeze to death
in the middle-of-nowhere Vermont!
Maybe we should just...
How the hell do you know where we are?
Did Shepherd send you to me?
What? No! I don't know Shepherd,
I swear.
We didn't get kidnapped because of you!
It's because of me.
(man on intercom) Good morning, Oliver Steele.
In the top drawer of the vanity, you'll find a message.
Stand in front of the camera and read it aloud.
(opening drawer)
"My father, Magnus Steele, took $200 million
"from innocent, hard-working Americans.
"Today that wrong will be righted.
"He will return the money by 6:00 p.m. Eastern time.
"Or my girlfriend and I will be executed."

But why here?
Why this house?
I grew up in Sydney, but my dad was American.
We rented this ski cabin
a couple winters when I was a kid.
This was my bedroom.
That's how I knew this was in Vermont.
But I don't know what the address is, I was too young.
Okay, so, whoever did this knows a lot about your family.
Well, I... my dad was a high-powered accountant.
I assume this is some statement about my privileged childhood.
The card doesn't say to pay the money.
It says to give the money back.
Okay...
I went to work at my dad's firm after university.
One day, I found a discrepancy in the accounts,
and I confronted him.
Turned out that my father and his business partner
were involved in a Ponzi scheme.
They were stealing money from their clients.
So, that's the $200 million.
I was disgusted, I threatened to go to the police.
And he ran.
He left the country, and he never came back.
But you haven't talked to him ever since?
No.
But every year at Christmastime, I...
leave a voicemail at his old work number,
begging him to come back and just turn himself in.
And the mailbox never gets full,
so I know he's still checking it.
Wait, and you never went to the cops
after all these years.
I couldn't bring myself to do it.
I left the firm, and I started my charity.
And changed your name to Oliver Kind.
Jane, I'm sorry I kept this from you.
No, it's... look, I know a thing or two
about screwed-up families, okay?
Let's just worry about getting out of here.
How?
Even if my dad sees this video, wherever he is,
he is not gonna pay a ransom to save me.
No, we're not gonna make that video.
(man) My condolences for your loss.
Were you close with the deceased?
I didn't come here for grief counseling.
I came for my inheritance.
Yes, sir,
my apologies.
Just sign here.
I was...
I was posing as his next of kin.
Her next of kin.
We don't know who the trust belonged to.
We were hoping you might remember.
Or perhaps you'd know what you did with the money.
I don't.
I'm sorry.
I killed this person for their money, right?
That's what you're thinking?
We don't know that.
Well, it makes perfect sense.
Memory after memory. I...
I killed people.
That's who I was.
A monster.
You're not that person anymore.
How do you know that?
Because I watched Jane go through
exactly what you're going through right now.
I've seen you with my team.
And you want to do good...
just like your sister.
I wish I could believe that.
Roman...
If we can force them to come in and face us,
we might actually have a chance to overpower them and escape.
How are we gonna do that?
With this.
They need you to make the video if they want the ransom.
So, if we destroy the camera, they'll have no choice
but to come in and film you themselves.
Hand me that lamp.
How do you know how to do all of this?
The MacGyver routine,
that kung fu move you pulled on me...
I grew up in a family of criminals, bad ones.
I used to be one, but I'm not anymore.
Watch yourself.
Here.
You sure this is gonna work?
(grunts, groans)
(gun clicking) Don't move!
Guess it was a mistake to take the girl.
You wanted to see me?
Yeah.
Tasha came to see me last night.
She told me that you've been going through some things...
in your personal life.
And that she's really worried about you.
No one asked her to worry about me...
Reade, she told me there's been drug use.
- I made some dumb mistakes... - You need to stop talking right now.
I can't have this conversation.
Any version of it will end up with me suspending you,
so here's what's gonna happen.
You're gonna put in for some time off.
Vacation, leave of absence.
Whatever you want, I'll approve it.
But, Edgar, whatever it is that you're going through,
we can help you, but you need to...
How the hell would you know what I need?
I know that you need help,
I know that I'm in no position to give it to you,
- so, as your friend... - We're not friends. We're not family.
- You're my boss, that's it. - Fine, as your boss,
I'm advising you not to throw away
your career with the FBI.
Especially not to throw away your career with this team.
You don't give a damn about me.
You're only worried about how this affects you and your team.
You wanna be very careful about what you say to me right now.
Oh, yeah, or what? You wanna fire me, fire me.
I'm doing everything in my power not to fire you.
Do you understand that?
Why don't I save you the trouble?
I quit.
- Reade, I... - Go to hell.
Tell me, Oliver, what's Magnus like?
Was he a good dad to you?
He was... fine.
I was a good dad.
I taught my daughter to be strong and work hard,
and she did.
She built a business from the ground up,
my baby girl.
And then she trusted the wrong people.
She lost everything.
She went bankrupt.
Had to fire all 52 of her employees.
Oh... oh, that broke her heart.
They say it's just money,
but it's not just money.
It's people's lives.
She was 32 years old
when she jumped off the G.W. Bridge.
Her name was Jessica.
It's taken me ten years to figure out
who was responsible for her death.
Cops dropped out after two years.
A lost decade, but it was worth it
to make your father pay for my loss.
So, you read the message...
or you lose her.
Just do what he says.
"My father, Magnus Steele,
"took $200 million
"from innocent, hard-working Americans.
"Today, that wrong will be righted.
"He will return the money by 6:00 p.m., Eastern time,
"or my girlfriend and I will be executed."
Copy, the other one's ready to go, too.
What other one?
What's going on, Patterson?
There's something you need to see.
This was posted to YouTube ten minutes ago.
That's the guy Jane's been seeing, Oliver.
He's been kidnapped?
(Weller) Not just him. Jane's been taken too.
Okay, we need to locate Oliver's father immediately.
Wait, there's more.
"Our mother, Edith Kananack,
"took $200 million
"from innocent, hard-working Americans..."
(Patterson) These videos were posted together
with instructions from the kidnappers.
It's a prisoner's dilemma.
The first parent to pay the ransom gets their kids back.
And the other one gets to watch them die.
13 years ago, a prominent New York banker
was caught running a Ponzi scheme on his clients.
Drained their life savings, ruined hundreds of lives,
and made off with over $200 million.
Brian Canfield.
(Patterson) Exactly, he went to prison for life,
but they never found the money.
Rumor was that he had a co-conspirator
who laundered the money for him,
but no one could figure out who it was.
Oliver's dad Magnus Steele
and his business partner Edith Kananack.
Looks like they were the co-conspirators.
And now the kidnappers are playing them against each other,
trying to get the $200 million.
We need to find both of them before they try to pay that ransom.
Well, Magnus left the U.S. shortly after Canfield was caught,
and he's been off the grid ever since...
- I'm still looking for leads. - What about Edith?
Up until this morning, she was retired and living in Greenwich,
living a normal life, but she destroyed her cell phone
immediately after the videos were uploaded.
I'll put out an APB, she can't have gotten far.
And I'll work on decrypting the YouTube videos.
What about Reade... is he in yet?
No, he's... he's not coming in today.
I'm wanna go and talk to Roman.
Fill him in.
The whole team is working on it,
all right, and we will find her.
So, do you need me to try to remember something?
No, you're her brother.
I thought you had every right to know.
Thank you.
You know, I met your mother when I was 16.
Shepherd's been watching me ever since.
She's a master manipulator.
She was the one...
who got you the passport to go to the Bahamas.
So, if you did kill someone there...
I'd say it was probably under her orders.
Maybe... old Roman wasn't a monster.
Maybe he was just being controlled by one.
Maybe.
Jane's the only family I have left.
I don't know what I'd...
I don't know what I'd do if I lost her.
We'll find her.
You try to escape...
Edith won't see her kids again.
I've known those kids since they were in preschool.
I won't let anything happen to them, okay?
We just need a new plan.
We can't run, so we need to find a way
to tell my team where we are.
What team?
My FBI team.
Who are you?
No, seriously. Who the hell have I been dating?
I could ask you the same question.
Look, we both kept secrets, okay?
Clearly, we didn't trust each other with them.
But if we wanna get out of here alive,
we need to trust each other now.
Do you remember the layout of this building?
We need to get to a phone.
When we used to come here,
my dad's office was right underneath this room.
I would go to sleep listening to him on his business calls.
That's good, there might still be a phone there
and a piece mail with an address on it,
to tell them where we are.
We're gonna have to go up to go down.
Hey... there's a phone!
The new owners must've converted it into a play room.
- Hey, put the phone down! - Hey, don't shoot!
Put it down! Move!
Go.
Move!
Edith Kananack's husband has been
with an FBI team since this morning.
He swears he has no idea where Edith is,
but his phone records tell a different story.
Right after the videos came out,
he received one incoming call
from a payphone in Pearl River.
- Edith? - That'd be my guess.
After that, he made an outgoing call to his mother, June.
Wait, why involve the grandmother?
Well, maybe they needed her help.
Edith and her ex-husband would want to pay the ransom
to save their kids, but if Edith comes forward,
she'd be arrested for stealing the money.
And that's where the grandmother comes in.
She gives the money to the kidnappers, the kids go free.
Can we track the grandmother's cell?
Where is she right now?
Uh, headed north on the Palisades.
She must be meeting with Edith to get the cash.
Patterson, get a team out there now.
We need to intercept them before they pay that ransom.
(Darren) Hey, look who I found.
They climbed down the damn chimney.
I told you to not let them out of your sight!
Sit down! Sit down!
All of you, over here!
Come here.
The second screen in that monitor room,
it's a different house.
Maybe that's where they're keeping the kids.
I know where it is.
The Kananacks used to summer at a lake house upstate.
I went there once.
It's part of an estate called Whiteshore.
Okay, so all we need to do is get that message out, and...
Shut up.
Another word, and I'll blow your brains out.
Both of you.
Please, you have to let me go.
You're gonna get my babies killed!
Ma'am, we're gonna get them back.
If you help us find Magnus,
then we can save all of the hostages at once...
Magnus is... is in Lugano, Switzerland.
Six feet underground.
Magnus Steele is dead?
Patterson.
Uh, the hospital in Switzerland confirmed Edith's story.
Magnus was a cancer patient there under an alias.
He died six months ago.
Without Magnus, we have nothing.
The kidnappers don't know that he's dead.
And Edith gave her word that she won't pay the ransom
until the deadline's closer.
So, we have bought a little time to locate Jane.
Why did you do that?
I warned you.
Now they're gonna kill those kids.
- Is that what you wanted? - No, don't hurt them.
We weren't trying to escape.
We were looking for a phone.
What, to call for help?
No, to call Magnus.
He's in hiding, he's probably never
going to see that YouTube video,
but Oliver knows how to reach him.
There's a voicemail he still checks.
- Jane... - So, if you want your money,
you let us make the call.
Damn it, fine, give it to them.
Give it to them.
On speaker.
Dial your dad's old work number.
(female voice) You've reached the voice mailbox of Magnus Steele.
Please leave a message. (beeping)
Hi, Dad...
it's me, Oliver.
I know we haven't spoken in a while.
Mr. Steele, this is your son's girlfriend.
He's too proud to ask you for help, but I'm not.
You need to pay $200 million, or we're going to be killed.
If you don't have the cash, you can sell your collection
of Roman sculptures and the shepherd painting.
Liquidate the phase two condos in Florida if you have to.
(beeping) What's going on?
Some of our routine NSA surveillance software
just flagged a phone message
with multiple Sandstorm keywords in it.
A new lead on Phase Two?
Not exactly.
(Jane) If you don't have the cash, you can sell your collection
of Roman sculptures and the shepherd painting.
That's Jane! She must have known that if she used
Sandstorm terms, you would intercept the call.
(beeping)
Kurt, he shouldn't be up here.
He's in a bad state, he needed to know
that his sister is alive and fighting to see him again.
Where is she?
The phone's signal is heavily cloaked,
so we're still trying to work on it.
(Jane) You can still fix things with your son.
But first things first.
Send amount verified exactly.
Killer is deranged, sadistic, and terrifying.
We're helpless in the end, so hurry or risk everything.
That last part, there's something off about it.
He's right, it's a code.
Uh... first things first.
Wait, uh, I got it.
What if we use the first letter of every word?
(Weller) Save kids at Whiteshore.
What's "Whiteshore"?
It's an exclusive resort upstate.
She figured out where the kids are being held,
and she wants us to go rescue them.
No, no-no-no, you can't do that,
Jane could be killed.
You gotta rescue both parties at the same time.
Roman, calm down, all right, Jane sent us this.
All right, and that means that she wants us to go after those kids.
That means she can probably handle
the kidnappers on her end.
We have to trust her.
Nas, Patterson, you keep searching for Jane.
Tasha, you and me'll take a team up to Whiteshore.
As soon as we know the kids are safe, we can escape.
Jane, there's too many of them.
We don't have a choice.
I need you to trust me one last time.
When I say run, run.
I am sick of hearing you two yap!
Shut up!
FBI!
Don't shoot! Don't shoot!
(screaming)
It's okay.
It's okay, we're FBI, everything's gonna be okay.
I need you two to follow me.
Weller? Coming down with the kids.
Where are the other hostages?
- (man) The Feds found the lake house! - Run!
(groaning)
(gunshots)
What're you still doing here? Oliver, we have to go!
It was an accident.
Look, listen to me. Hey, listen to me.
You didn't have a choice. It was him or you.
It's okay, but we have to go, now.
Okay? Come on, move.
Well, well, well.
What do we have here?
(Darren) We're running out of time here, Herman.
(Herman) Just let me think.
The Feds are at the lake house, man.
It's not gonna take 'em long to figure out where we are.
Herman, what do you want to do?
I don't know!
This is all wrong, why isn't he contacting us?
Your father has to be punished.
I don't even want the money.
I just want him to pay for what he did.
I want him to feel the pain...
that I felt...
when I lost my Jessica.
Magnus will never feel that kind of pain.
What?
And he won't pay your ransom
because he doesn't love his son
like you loved your daughter.
Threatening Oliver won't make him surface with the money,
and killing Oliver won't destroy him.
Because you were right about Magnus.
He isn't half the father you were.
But he will pay for his crimes.
And now that you've told the world what he did,
the authorities will find him.
It's not enough.
Nothing will be enough to bring back Jessica.
But is this what she would want?
For you to become a murderer?
It's not too late.
You can still back out of all this.
Just let us go.
Take them back to the city.
Drop them on a busy corner.
(gunshot)
Finally, some peace and quiet.
For three months, we've been listening
to that sad sack spout his unhinged tirades,
day in and day out,
because we were promised 40% of the ransom.
I want my 80 million.
I... I don't have that kind of money, not anymore.
No-no-no-no...
now, see, half of my team is dead...
by your hand.
Now lucky for you, I prefer compensation to retaliation,
but if I can't have my first choice, well, then...
Wait-wait... the charity I run has deep pockets.
Not 80 million, but 50 at least.
You can have it all.
Get the laptop for the wire transfer.
- Wait, wait, I can't do it from here. - (chuckling)
No, there's a fail-safe for moving large amounts.
It has to be authorized by at least two board members.
Well, we're just gonna have to find another board member, aren't we?
Wipe the place, we're taking this show on the road.
(doors closing)
I know you feel helpless.
I'm sorry that we had to bring you back down here right away.
Don't be.
It's just, there's a lot of sensitive intel around.
I understand why I have to be in here.
I belong here.
Roman...
You don't have to explain.
Just let me know when she's safe.
Of course.
It reeks of bleach in here.
They must've wiped this place clean.
Might not be the right location.
They could've lied to us.
Weller, take a look at these scratch marks.
What about 'em?
They're not just random scratches.
They're the logo to Oliver's water charity.
How do you know that?
Jane had me look into Oliver when they first started dating.
That's probably where they're headed.
All right, let's move!
(Darren) Now, listen, man, remember,
the only thing you gotta do
is get your CFO to make that wire transfer,
and we all go home.
But if you try and escape, yell for help,
Darren's gonna open fire in that building.
If you try to be a hero,
my colleagues are gonna slit your girlfriend's pretty little throat.
- You understand what I'm saying to you? - Yeah, yeah.
Let's go.
(door opening)
Jill?
Oliver, what...
It... it's gonna be okay.
Oh, God, you're the one who kidnapped him.
Hey, all he wants is money.
Okay, I just need your co-authorization
to empty out the account.
(engine revving)
Do we have eyes inside, Patterson?
I tapped into the security footage.
Oliver is in the CFO's office on the 19th floor...
there's a man with a gun on him.
Let's move.
Jill, we need your password now.
(buzzing)
I'm sorry, I just made a mistake.
You do it again, and you lose a limb.
(buzzing)
(gunfire)
- (gunshot) - (shattering)
(grunting)
Edith made a full confession, she's facing fraud charges.
So, I'm guessing you didn't find my dad.
Uh...
(sighing)
I'm so sorry, Oliver.
Magnus died of cancer six months ago.
There's one other thing.
In the last two years of his life,
he gave away most of his fortune...
in large, anonymous donations, to your charity.
- I'll give you guys some privacy. - Thanks.
(door opening)
Look, I know it doesn't make up for what he did, but...
at least he was trying.
He did care about you.
Maybe.
Or maybe he was just trying to clear
his own conscience before he died.
Do you...
can I take you home?
Um...
I think I'd probably just like to be alone.
Of course.
- Look, Jane... - You don't have to say it.
It's just all too much right now.
You know, I just...
I don't think I have the...
emotional real estate...
for someone whose life is as complicated as my own.
It's okay.
You were incredible today.
You want to let Roman out?
House arrest, all right?
He'll still be under round-the-clock surveillance.
Look, we've kept him in a cage because
we're afraid of what he might become,
but it's a self-fulfilling prophecy.
We treat him like a monster,
and he's starting to think of himself that way.
We treat him like a criminal who's being punished for his wrongdoing.
Except Roman is an asset, all right?
The most valuable asset against Sandstorm that we've got,
and instead of turning him to our side,
we're actually pushing him away.
Look, if we want Roman to help us,
then we need to start treating him
like he's potentially one of the good guys.
We know exactly what that man has the potential to be.
And every single one of those memories
that you're so desperate to pry out of his damaged brain
can turn him right back into it.
You won't get my approval on this.
Fine, we'll take it to Pellington.
This is a mistake.
Hey, I heard about Reade. Is he gonna be okay?
Honestly, I don't know.
- What about you? - I'll be okay.
You sure?
I mean, I... I've never been dumped before,
that... didn't feel awesome.
But... he was right.
There's just too much baggage between us.
That is a cop-out.
- No, it isn't. - It totally is.
Everyone has baggage they bring to a relationship.
You and Oliver just weren't right for each other.
How do you know?
Because when someone's really right for you,
you make room.
Jane, come with me please.
Good night.
What is this? What's going on?
They're, uh, putting me on house arrest.
(chuckling)
I'm getting out.
He's gonna go home with you, stay at the safe house.
There are conditions to the deal.
You'll report to SIOC with Jane every morning
to continue your mandatory sessions with me.
And then you'll return to the safe house every night.
All other movements are restricted.
You're still in FBI custody. That has not changed.
You're getting out.
(laughing)
I'll see you tomorrow.
Thank you.
You have no idea what this means to me.
I have some idea.
(music, distant chatter)
Let me get another.
A double?
You're not driving, are you?
Where else am I gonna go?
(keys drop)
Now, I can't cook.
But I can order with the best of 'em.
Here.
Okay.
How about Alfred's Chinese?
No, thanks, I almost died once already today.
(laughing)
What is it?
That money I took from the Bahamas for Sandstorm...
I'm pretty sure I didn't kill anyone for it.
Well, how do you know?
Because the trust fund belonged to Alice Kruger.
