so so so [Music] so i spent the night john yeah yeah you should come back tonight yeah we'll see how do we tackle the drug problem sir well as you know the drug problem has risen in our city in the last few years it coincides with our growing crime rate and rising unemployment as a matter of fact in the last year unemployment rose 15.3 percent to a total of 24.3 percent many of the people who are working can't make enough to stay above the poverty line now this situation cannot continue so do you have a game plan mr mayor i was hoping you had some ideas about that bob how's vice mayor archer doing well i regret to say that she's not doing too well but she's a fighter like the rest of us in this city you know in the meantime we're working on several issues here at once you know to get the city back on its feet you know we have to save our industry to save our jobs building a hope for tomorrow in my view you know is beginning to to lower the crime rate today and what exactly are you going to do to get us to that future mr mayor well for starters the big three investing in fuel cell development as well as more efficient biodiesel technology green is the future and we will be in the forefront of the green technology movement yeah we've all heard the grand plan before when does actual work begin the state and the city have received a combined 1.3 billion dollars in incentive grants from the federal government to get the ball rolling so we hope to be making some announcements about job creations very soon can you tell us what else is on the agenda sir well we're looking at new and innovative ways to provide affordable public housing in the united city the only problem is cheap rent sometimes brings the wrong element in and with it they're past rap sheets drugs illegal weapons so mr mayor what is the city going to do about the crime rate bob good question you know people turn to drugs to get away from the life that offers them no hope now can we really blame them for a government i'm included that has failed them seems like the drug problem is a great place to start we beef up our task force start offering jobs and education and training in law enforcement i believe progress will be made mr mayor thank you all very much that's it for this afternoon our mayor needs to get back to work saving our city the primaries are coming up and i want you

reports indicate that the wounds were fatal we will bring you further details as they continue to come in hi agent driver thanks hey chief wants to see you any idea what it's about yeah you didn't say just said now this type of hit does not happen in our city and it's never happened on my watch what do you think political mob related i know the mayor was shot sir hopefully once i start

nice to meet you me too i'll see you around but harvey's at the end of the hall oh thanks agent driver have a seat good morning gentlemen this is special agent john archer you and agent archer will be working together any particular reason you're pairing me with somebody from dc and not pearson agent driver is one of dc's finest analysts i'm sure she'll be an asset to the team right you're driving he grows on you i don't plan on being here long enough for that to happen sir so what made you want to get involved in the bureau surely don't get many attractive women in this line of work i'm an md with a specialization in criminal psychiatry i have a master's degree in forensic science i was top of my class through med school but uh private practice never really appealed to screen so i uh was approached by the agency took the offer and headed for the academy and you uh top of the class there too you've got my phone you tell me so what about your weapon you ever fire in the line of duty i qualified as an expert marksman i'll take that as though neil roberts 21 years old jesus christ probably his first real job you know what tell me this anybody else been in here no i secured the area right before i called the pd do me a favor wait let's try and keep it that way anybody else contaminating the crime scene where you going hey what do you got shooter's position i think he might be right yeah that's where he rested the rifle well this guy was a pro no shell casings took his brass with him two shots rapid succession in the dark it's not your average street thug i'll tell you that much all right you know what i'm gonna check security cameras why don't you go up the mayor's office see what you find everything was fine for the first hour and then yeah i look like this my guess is the storm took the system out well that's pretty convenient don't you think not a single camera rolling the two victory kill no power goes out camera goes out what about the traffic cameras anybody check those not yet okay we'll get on that if you find something contact me asap right you find anything who's this uh it's james durant uh maybe's chief of staff's his right-hand man go-to pretty much for everything any reason why he'd want his boss dead not that i can imagine it's like i heard to ask him a few questions though i say we go through procedure i'll start by running a background check on any military in the area all right i'll do a search for anybody with a background in security too this system was breached far too easily yeah okay good morning grace mom how you feeling i always feel better when i see my boy no how you really feeling well they're good days and bad days and this just didn't one of the good days i'm sure tomorrow's gonna be better you need to find out who killed stan and you need to find out why i'm way ahead of you trust me well good so why don't you tell me about that new partner of yours what'd she like i don't even know how you know this i have my sources i'm sure you do there's there's there's nothing to say right that's too bad okay all right i gotta go try and get some sleep all right john be careful on this one i'm always careful mom i love you i love you i'm trying to get some sleep so so okay let's see what we got come on baby daddy needs an a yolo hey man yeah i'm not much just uh downloading some stuff from outside city hall for my um time lapse project uh yeah okay okay one beer but that's it okay maybe two yeah okay i'm gonna leave in a minute i'll see you soon okay show me yes archer hello hello what the hell are you still doing here i could ask you the same thing come on work too hard let's go get a beer take the edge off i'm gonna stick around and run through this one more time just see if there's something i missed beer security tapes beer wins this one boss why you enjoy yourself hey tommy i'm gonna grab two beers and a shot of jamie please finally gave it up huh yeah yeah i just needed a break you know so uh how's your new partner doing well the jury's still out but she's not my part looks like you lost your beer though cheers how you doing uh no no thanks okay yo is this pleasant hmm oh yeah pleasant well we're gonna have a lot in common so what do you got there don't cover anything new um i'm running a background analysis on durant i'm checking to see if there are any unusual patterns in his recent behavior let me just bring him in and ask him some questions yeah is that how you run things around here just bring them in rough them up a little bit see what happens well that's how we start we bring him in we sit him down ask her some questions see if any red flags pop up you know since we're here working together i say we collaborate in our approach well i think that's a good idea welcome aboard did you find anything in the surveillance tapes yeah it's all useless this whole thing reeks of a cover-up don't buy the electrical storm theory huh not for a second bullets fired from a gun killed this good man girls that's my theory john and i'm sticking to it now the bullet entered the front of his head here you tell from the relatively small entrance room the larger hole it's close to 13 centimeters that's basically a damn big exit we found uh these near the body some several feet away caliber of weapon you're in luck fragments of the 30-yard six bang bang that's not all from a different caliber now how do you suppose those got there so we got two weapons which introduces the possibility to shooters great it's very plausible these are from a much smaller weapon yeah probably a 22. professional's
weapon of choice yeah it makes sense in the twisted sort of way the first shot killed him instantly the second shot was for insurance the third shot was just entertainment so the primaries are coming up and the mayor's suddenly killed that's two candidates that could possibly benefit from this well i'd say that's a good place to start oh i should not have done that no no no no jesse jesse it's alex i i have an emergency a big one yeah i'm coming over no no today please jesse please please please please please please please okay thank you thank you i'll owe you no yeah yeah i'll pay you i can pay you i'm gonna have to run a complete diagnostic check alex okay well how long is that gonna take i'm pretty backed up but once i figure out what's wrong with it within a couple hours okay so today maybe it has to be today i'll do my best okay look you don't understand i needed this like yesterday okay i have a project due in a couple days come on jesse i've been coming to you forever i'll do what i can get out so i can work so tonight get out thank you so much thank you with the jobless and crime rates at all time highs this city needs someone who can deliver results so if you want results and are tired of broken promises then vote lee rudman you'll be glad you did i'm lee rudman and i approve this message as all of you know during mayor stanwood's administration i became his most trusted assistant more than that he became a father to me the father i never had he didn't want a lot of lavish expenses going into his funeral he even in his death had the best interests of the people he served in the forefront of his mind i think now's a good time to take a moment and say your final goodbyes well we'll give this guy a day tomorrow we pay him a visit i trust you james thanks sir you're welcome sometimes more than the other people that i work with i'm sick james and i need to keep my condition secret what do you mean sick i mean we can we can get you treatment specialists i've already gone through all that and there's nothing else that can be done i mean i can delay the process but nothing else i can do so i don't want to alarm anyone that's why i want you and we keep this under wraps we can figure out a way for you to get me my medication without anybody finding out yes sir [Music] i need to talk to you about how i want you to handle things after i'm gone it's open your assistant said you want to see me came as soon as i could have a seat how you holding up yeah i know stan was a good man even though we were political opponents he still treated me with respect the only bad thing he ever said about you had to do with your golf game that sounds like stan how's your wife doing i know they were old friends well you can imagine you know they worked together on quite a few city projects that's actually how i got bitten by the bug give them my best i will so what's on your mind a job a job for me or you for me working for you i already have a bunch of interns with stan gone it's only a matter of time before i'm handing my walking papers and you and i both know the vice mayor is not well enough to continue our duties those duties most certainly will not be coming my way what exactly are you looking for make me your campaign manager i already got one of those freeman's the best in the business i know and i respect what he does but he's not going to get you where you need to be you want to elaborate on that i have certain information that he is unaware of what kind of information certain information about your opponent michael conway information that if leaked through the proper channels of the proper times could derail his entire campaign while bolstering yours i can get you that throne you're looking for if you're referring to the city funds he used to bump his own staff's pay rates and you're three steps behind you're getting your news from cave paintings it's gonna be that slow it's much bigger than kicking his staff a few extra bucks hobby guarantee me a position on your staff as campaign manager and you get to know what until then you're just gonna have to lose sleep over it and what if i say no i'll just start combing the classifieds i think jcpenney is hiring maybe i can get a job there i'm sorry you're gonna have to do better than some big secret in order for me to think about hiring you freeman's a smart guy and he wouldn't miss something as big as what you're talking about you sure about that well sure enough to know i'm not gonna let him go without seeing a few more bullet points from your resume how's your campaign financing i'm all good there i got more support than you might even be aware of and what if i could triple that support does that pique your interest triple it yeah i'm interested okay what i'm about to tell you does not leave this room sounds exciting it is look you're not trying to get me any highway if i was trying to get you in hot water you'd know it by now all right fair enough fire away during my time with mr wood not all of the funds coming into the city were let's just say clean this includes payouts financing for various programs and of course campaign funds for the mayor's re-election campaign gangsters pulling strings from behind the curtains this is news even john q taxpayer isn't stupid enough to believe everything he hears from the media mobs have been involved in everything this isn't exactly a mob it's more of a fraternity fraternity is that what you call the hoods you grew up with no they might call friends since childhood and yes those are the people i grew up with they're the same people who are going to add some very working-class appeal to your very blue-blooded campaign and yes some of them can also provide a lower-level liaison into this fraternity even though stan tried to keep me clear for the most part he did provide me with some information what kind of information the kind of information that wins you political favors and financing in exchange for keeping your mouth shut if you're talking mob money you can stop right now i'll stop whenever you want me to stop but you and i both know campaigns like this are won and lost in the trenches and it's dirty you need somebody who's willing to be a little bit muddy so you don't have to freeman's not that guy all right look i need a night to think about it i've got a meeting with some high level people come by my place tomorrow at 9 00 am bring your resume be there right on time i like that i can't tell you how many times people show up late for meetings it drives me nuts i bet what's this my resume you know i was joking don't you not all of us are stiffs some of us do have a sense of humor coffee please cream sugar black please it's a hell of a place you have here thanks designed it myself every square inch i even planned out exactly where every piece of furniture should go you're an architect anal retentive i think is a term but yeah that's what i went to school for i really loved it i used to reverse engineer old buildings to see if i could improve them make them better such as the pyramids for example but not usually couldn't and what made you change gears architecture and politics are not exactly in the same ballpark i know it's this is going to sound corny but i thought there was a lot more that i could do for this city with politics than i could with my drawings there's a lot of impoverished areas where i got my first gigs that weren't getting the kind of funding that i thought they should have so as an architect no one's going to listen to me or i can't do much with that but with a shirt and a tie and a campaign billboard suddenly everybody's listening i gotta say i didn't picture you as a knight in shining armor type a lot of us in politics are here for much less noble reasons well that office isn't mine yet so don't be handing me the trophy until that race is over have you thought about my offer i did i did and uh i couldn't stop thinking about that secret fraternity you mentioned i can't believe stan was connected to these guys it doesn't sound like the everyday mob what else can you say about them well i can tell you that they're powerful enough to keep anybody from knowing too much about them the details i know i picked up from stan um the annual copis doubles as their motto it means god has favored us sounds arrogant already my kind of people apparently they're all over the country they're in every walk of life some are rich some are poor they're everywhere and aside from the ritualistic practices their objectives have never been that clear but some of the more elite factions have helped advance society and mathematics and science even turning the tide on some wars but for which side i couldn't tell you i suppose part of being a secret fraternity is keeping it secret did they ever ask you to join my contact with the fraternity has been primarily through foot soldiers guys i knew growing up the more elite members know that i'm not interested in serious membership and i'm happy to have my limited access i don't need the secret clubhouse decoder ring sounds like a cult to me i don't think i want to go down that road i understand your trepidation moving on though you said you had some information on conway that could help us win this thing us us freeman's out early this morning yeah poor sap look i need a victory and i believe you're the one that can do it for me whatever it takes as long as it's legal of course you're my campaign manager and when we win this thing if we win this thing you'll be my chief assistant you won't regret this yeah i better not so what's the big story kid conway's cheating on his wife who's the girl her name's crystal she works at a couple of the nightclubs in the city and you know this how she told me and i had her take a couple of her own photographs to make sure conway can't deny any of it oh this is good i told you we got the payoff we got the scandal we got him dead to rights this is over this is ours almost the back channels i told you about well they're two-way street and conway and his cronies are just starting to figure that out what are you talking about they know about paula belmont it hasn't gotten out and it won't because we're gonna stay five steps ahead of it who else knows about this until tomorrow morning just conway's team tomorrow morning we're gonna issue a statement about this love affair before conway can that way we can spin it the way we want to spin it crazy are you nuts this is the only way we break it we issue an explanation we give a big dramatic speech in the wake of conway's disgrace the public will forgive us without even issuing an apology i didn't mean to hurt her okay it was because we got a heated exchange it just it got out of hand it's i know i get it it was an accident but you don't have to sell it to me i'm not the one who's buying has she gone to the media yet not yet and i can make sure she doesn't until we have this under control should never have touched her i don't know what the hell i was thinking god it's done you can't change anything about it now what we can do is make the public see it the way we want them to see it my wife doesn't even know about it you don't want your dirty laundry aired in front of the whole city go sell used cars all right get to work wait until you hear what we've got in store for you tonight we lead off with candidate for mayor michael conway and a story straight out of the old film noir dime novels looks like your secret's out mr conway dancer at a local nightclub who goes by the stage name crystal has come forward with some shocking news gang are you ready for this let's hear it michael conway the very married michael conway has been caught in the type of scandal that opponents can only dream of so close to voting day apparently this crystal and conway have been sleeping around for months now can you believe it you don't say it's gonna be a late one what do you feel like chinese or italian buyer's choice who says i'm buying your campaign manager you have that speech ready just finished let's hear it friends and neighbors over the course of the next few months we're going to be spending a lot of time getting to know one another and i'm going to do my best to figure out what it is exactly you want and need and you're going to do your best to figure out who i am and what i stand for and that process will be a whole lot easier if we're honest with each other so let me take this opportunity to be honest with you during the coming campaign my opponent mike conway is going to try to tell you all about what a horrible person i am how many mistakes i've made he's going to describe all of my faults in vivid detail in an attempt to make you hate me more than you already hate him well i'm here to tell you the truth and the truth is i do have faults and i have made mistakes and i'm glad because without mistakes mankind never invents the wheel or the airplane i'm not perfect and i don't want to be all i want is for you to trust me when i tell you i have what it takes to be your next leader i want you to trust me when i tell you that michael conway is lying and i want you to trust me when i tell you that a vote for lee rudman is a vote for the future of this city so you think that'll work huh i think it'll convince the people that you're worthy of forgiveness you mean the forgiveness for the issue with paula forgiveness for anything this is about character this is about being real being fallible being forgivable under any circumstance no one forgives anyone else unless they want to we're going to make them want to all right so what's next strategy every conquering hero needs one so we discredit conway first we won't have to not after this affair breaks he's going to destroy himself from the inside out what we need to do is stick to the issues stick to the platform conway's as good as gone they're all going to be as good as gone you're going to be the last man standing all right what are the first issues healthcare you mentioned some of the impoverished people in the neighborhoods you worked i grew up with some of those people and i can tell you firsthand what's most important to them is affordable health care for the poor and the elderly wait a minute the city has a pretty good health care system right now in place but it's not good enough and the voters know that i'm telling you we hit a home run leading off with this issue all right what's next education empowering citizens to pull themselves out of their own dire circumstances we create new schools new after-school programs new teachers we reel in the working-class vote in a city that is very working-class owned all right well with budgets education always gets the raw deal right everyone knows this so you announce your intention to change that and the voters will believe you because they want to believe you this is all about who you are leading up to voting day the day after you can be whoever you want if we're not able to carry through all the promises we made leading up to the election won't be the first time won't be the last all right what about security this city needs to be cleaned up i built a whole campaign on this i made a lot of promises i'm sure some of my old friends won't appreciate doing that but i'm with you so so how do we turn this whole thing around we assign special task force to very specific areas of crime we create our own dea our own atf releasing the bad guys running what kind of numbers are we talking with that ballpark 1500 new men translates to about 60 mil a year in salaries this doesn't include transportation weapons so realistically this isn't very possible is it realistically no but campaigns aren't one unrealistically they're one on hypothetically what if we could create the greatest police force this city has ever seen what if we could cut crime in half these are the questions we want our voters to be asking as they step into the booth not how we're going to pay for it what if i get elected when when you get elected when i get elected we put 500 new uniform cops on the street and we throw some new toys at them it's enough to make people think you weren't just blowing smoke up their asses so you believe that'll be enough to satisfy them it'll have to let's get the ball rolling with this first first let's get elected do you order the chinese what's the number i need you to run with this story tomorrow i needed you to run with it yesterday yes yes i'm calling it a favor and i know it means i'm on the hook for a bigger favor down the road the speech goes on at 10 a.m sharp so i need you to run with the story tonight so people can see it with their morning newspaper and coffee okay good what are they running more women have come out about conway guy's a regular tiger woods the more i find out about him the less i want to know though you're doing a hell of a job james you're a good man i don't know if i'd go that far i'm gonna call it a night i got a big day tomorrow a toast to our fallen mayor stanwood good man all right you ready for this yep i know you've never done it before but feel free to pull your gun if the need arises very funny [Music] take it easy have a seat please now have a seat thank you look i just need to have a quick word with you these these these guys are going to be nice to me give us a minute i appreciate it thank you i hope you understand this is protocol you know i gotta i gotta ask you some questions anyway because you're in depth relationship with the mayor unfortunately that just makes your prime suspect do you know what that man meant to me he pulled me out of this neighborhood gave me an opportunity to do something with my life he mentored me that man was like a father to me nobody stood to gain more than me from him being in office which saying doesn't make any sense well that that that may very well be the case you can't understand i don't even do dylan's just here i mean would you happen to be able to alibi where you were that night i was uh i was at sahara's i think you know the place i do yeah yeah yeah you know how's our friend crystal doing by the way she's still good last time i spoke to her yeah see mr archer i know more about you than you know about me which worries me i gotta tell you it does tells me you've been doing your homework which i just don't know why an innocent man would anyway look if you think of anything you know they can help us out if you want to tell me anything i would appreciate if you give me a call all right good talk to you he said i will find our way for someone who just lost a father figure he didn't seem very distraught yeah same thought crossed my mind uh [Music] come on mila pick up come on hey it's me call me back as soon as you get this and watch yourself wow come on answer the phone answer the phone it's the phone hello hey it's archer you all right yeah yeah yeah i'm okay there couple guys attacked me when i got back i'll be right there stay put i'll be right there i guess this was our warning yeah oh he paid me a visit as well that's part of the job if you're not aware of it thanks for coming we'll talk tomorrow right keep the ice on it make sure the swelling goes down can you stay i'm i'd just rather not be alone tonight yeah yeah i can't thanks hey how's it looking just about done okay let's take it for a test drive oh yes sweet oh thank you so much jesse it looks like i'm gonna make my deadline that's pretty cool right wait go back a few seconds stop scroll back just a little is that what i think it is you are about to be famous no i'm about to be dead yeah we're on our way we got another body beautiful let's go another corpse courtesy of our marksman guess we can scratch redman off the suspect list neighbors found him i can't say for sure without a ballistics report but i'd delay odds that it's the same weapon that killed our mayor yeah right well we'll get the 30 out six over to ballistics and see if we get a match um what are the selects from the mayor's chest you pull them 22. all right i'll stick on the computer see if we get hit thank you well i don't want to get killed by some sniper okay did you see the news someone took out lee rodman dude wasn't even elected yet he was just running so you're withholding evidence oh come on even if you weren't you have something that they might be able to use to id the killer yeah yeah maybe you're right i just don't want to end up dead you're such a wimp come on we'll go together my cousin's boyfriend is some kind of agent it's all very hush-hush but everybody in the family knows about it hey uh i've got something for you and andy holzman purchased a remington 700 that rifle is fully capable of firing that slug and as luck would have it he's also ex-marine military sniper all right she got an address i'm working on it okay we'll work faster look it's going to take some time look i really need you to prioritize this right of course i think we might have something here happy stranger what are you doing here shouldn't you be getting some sleep yeah i couldn't sleep i keep thinking about that second shooter you know yeah wait you want to think about him over drink i sure do tommy get her something i'll have whatever he's having so what floor really yeah really one floor sex andrew holzman yeah agent archer this agent driver we'd like to ask you a few questions you guys are here about the assassinations just like to ask you a couple questions you've got a minute all right i guess it was just something i was born to do i mean i was a pretty big game hunter before i joined the core pretty good shot so i guess sniping was just in my blood i know well i've had my feel of killing i didn't kill your mayor and i didn't kill rodman okay well here's our predicament mr olsen mirror was killed from about 15 feet away never had redmi shot from about 800 meters fairly impressive shot by anybody's standards we know you have the skill in the [ __ ] to make a shot and oddly enough he just purchased a weapon that potentially could have fired the same slug so help me out here 800 arenas ain't nothing especially for a chance tonight listen what we'd like to do is take the weapon down to the lab let ballistics run their tests on it just to eliminate you from the possible suspect list you okay with that yeah good so i'll tell you what you take it run all your tests but be good to my little girl we'll make sure to uh sing our bedtime story come on in how can i help that's a quick question you know something we've been bouncing back and forth between the two of us so far we got the mayor and another candidate that's been killed and what we can't seem to figure out maybe maybe helps with this is why you think nobody's come after you you still think i have something to do with stan's death i already told you i was at sahara's i have a dozen witnesses who can vouch for me you guys need to reprioritize you should be more interested in protecting me than trying to pin this crap on me we're not trying to pin anything on you if you'll excuse me i have a debate yeah yeah this john aren't you i'll be right there what is it well it seems my mom's
