Don't get me wrong.
Jimmy is a great man.

And his leadership is what
we needed back in the day.

- But times change.
- You're right about that.

There's new ways
to make money these days.

Yeah. And if we're gonna stay relevant,

we gotta embrace change,
not run from it.

Welcome to King Kone!

What can I get started for you today?

Yeah, can I get a...

Thing is, you know, Jimmy's

This ain't about that, kid.
It's just business.

We'll have that

You can go ahead and pull up
to the next window.

- Thanks, darling.
- So, how you planning on...

You don't need to know about that.

It's arranged. It'll be fast.

He'll never see it coming.

You get the extra sprinkles?

Always do.

Ha! Extra sprinkles is what makes it.

Remy?

Hey, Georgie.

It's not the boxes
from Vegas with all your stuff.

I should have told you when I called up.

It's just your dry cleaning.
I'm sorry about that.

The minute they get here,
I'll send 'em up.

I'm sure you're getting tired
of living out of a suitcase.

You got that right.

[GROANING, BREATHING HARD]

Morning, Kristin.

Yeah, you go ahead.
I'll, um, I'll meet you there.

Duty calls, huh?

Three people k*lled at a
fast-food drive-thru in Massapequa.

- That's on Long Island.
- Yep.

But Massapequa isn't even a village.

It's a hamlet.
Who gets m*rder*d in a hamlet?

Today it was a woman in an SUV

- with two kids in the back seat.
- Aw, son of a bitch.

Go... I'll lock up after you.

Thanks, Georgie.

[POLICE RADIO CHATTER]

What do we got?

The victims are Brianna Morgan, ,

and her sons Danny and Sam...
eight and six.

When they pulled up to the window,

a white male employee, Kevin Williams,

pulled out an as*ault r*fle
and opened fire on the vehicle.

He got away in a green Toyota.

- Tell me we got a plate.
- We did.

Security cameras were disabled,

but an eyewitness got it on his phone.

It's Jersey plates. The car's stolen.

But we got a BOLO out
and road blocks are up.

- Bodies still inside?
- CSU were waiting for you.

♪

Looks like some kind of hit.

That's why Nassau County called us.

They thought it might be g*ng-related.

- MS- ?
- Yeah. How'd you know?

They've been active
in Suffolk County for years.

If they're down here in Massapequa,

that's a bad sign.

What do we know about the victims?

Kristin's talking
to the husband right now.

Brianna... my boys...

I-I don't understand
how this could happen.

Mr. Morgan, this is Agent Scott.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

This doesn't seem real. Is that normal?

I know it's a lot to process.

It's gonna take time.

Are you up
for answering a few questions?

Yeah.
Anything to help find who did this.

Was this part of their routine?

- The drive-thru, I mean?
- Uh, no.

Uh, the boys had a dental
appointment this morning.

That's why they
were late for school, um...

Brianna brought them here for a snack.

Just a little treat
before dropping them off.

She called me when she was on the way.

And then...

I'm sorry...

- [SOFTLY] It's okay.
- It's okay.

Can you think of anyone
who would want to harm you

or your wife?

Anyone who would
want to target your family?

Target us?

No. We're just... ordinary.

Just a regular family.

We moved out here from the city

because it was supposed to be safe.

And for the schools.

[CRYING] It doesn't matter
about the schools now, does it?

Not for my boys.

[SOBBING]

Mr. Morgan, this is a lot, I know, okay?

I want to give you my card.

You call us if you remember anything,

and even if you just need to talk, okay?

We're here for you.

Thank you.

Here's Kevin Williams'
employment record.

This is Ayala West.
She was supervising today.

Is this the employee
that k*lled those people?

That's not him. That's not Kevin.

What do you mean?

It's a guy that kinda looks
like him, but it's not Kevin.

I didn't hire him.
That was a different manager.

He must not have looked
carefully at the license

when he did the start-up paperwork.

- I'm sorry.
- No, it's not your fault.

Do you think you could describe
him to a sketch artist?

Yeah, I was training him all morning.

That'll be a huge help.

- Will you follow me?
- Mm-hmm.

Thanks.

Our UnSub must've
used Kevin Williams' ID

to get the job.

Then he drives a stolen
car to work on the first day.

He was never looking for a paycheck.

He only wanted
to get behind that window.

[SIGHS] Track the ID

and stay on top of
any forensics that come back.

Hana, do a deep dive on these victims.

We need to get a handle on what
the hell went down here.

I'll deal with the media.

[MAN GRUNTING]

Yo, Louie.

Hey, you, uh, you got any other jobs?

What, this one's not good enough?

No, it's, I mean, I'm available [GRUNTS]

if you got some other stuff.

You focus on this stuff.

Yeah, sure. But, uh...

think of me.

Even if it's off the books.

What's that supposed to mean?

Nothin'. It's just, uh...[SNIFFS]

I'm not like these other guys.

I'm Sicilian.

I'm paisan.

- Hmm?
- I don't know what the hell

you think this is,
but I ain't interested.

This site... it's legit.

But you're right about one thing.

You ain't like the rest of these guys.

'Cause they're still
working here and you're not.

Get out!

[SCOFFS] Come on, Louie.
You... you're f*ring me?

You're damn right. Get outta here. Go!

[TENSE MUSIC]

♪

Ayala was very, very detailed.

She said it's a good likeness.

The actual Kevin Williams
lost his wallet last week

and he has an alibi for this morning.

[SIGHS] This case is gonna k*ll me.

What about the victims?

Any possible connection
between them and our UnSub?

Nothing that I could find.
They're squeaky clean.

There was nothing wrong
with their financials,

no evidence of infidelity
or substance abuse.

They're well-liked by
their neighbors and colleagues.

Are you telling me this
was a completely random att*ck?

Random as per the victims,
but maybe not so random.

Okay, I'm listening.

You said it looked like a hit,

and I couldn't shake that,
so I started digging,

and I found this.

.

A mafia hitman took out an underboss

from the Lucretia family at
a drive-thru window in Queens.

Three victims.

One in the front, two in the back.

Just like ours.
The hitman was notorious.

Yeah, I remember.
Jackie "The Fox" Bianchi.

Yeah, right.

- Wow, you remember the ' s.
- You don't?

- I wasn't even born...
- Do not finish that sentence.

Jackie "The Fox" was suspected
of multiple mob hits

and even spent time
on the Most Wanted List.

- How'd he get off it?
- He d*ed.

Think he blew up in a boat or something?

Right, Mr. old-school.

. Out of Long Island Sound.

He was presumed dead.

Presumed? They didn't confirm with DNA?

DNA evidence wasn't routinely
used by the Bureau

until a few years later.

Okay, so what does a dead hitman

have to do with our murders?

This is crazy, but there's this guy

who claims to be Jackie "The Fox"

and he has a podcast
called "My Greatest Hits."

- You're kidding.
- I know, right?

I've listened to some of it.

It's actually kind of fascinating.

This guy who's allegedly Jackie Bianchi,

he said he records
in an undisclosed location

where there's no extradition treaty.

Yeah, but why would Jackie

want to draw that much
attention to himself?

Oh, the guy on the podcast
has an ego the size of Brazil.

I think he's just
doing it for attention.

Yeah, but that kind of attention?

I mean, that'll get
him sent away for life.

Right. That can't be him.

Who was the Organized Crime Agent

on Jackie's case?

[KEYBOARD CLACKING]

Terry Daniels. He's retired.
He lives in Dyker Heights.

This the podcast?

Yeah.

You want me to help you download it?

Please.

So what do I do next?

Press this little button here?

- I'm not a grandfather.
- [SOFTLY CHUCKLES]

Okay, you guys start
listening to the episodes,

see what you can find.

Kristin, let's go see Terry Daniels.

Jimmy Russo wasn't born
yesterday, ya know?

He knew they was comin' for him.

That's when he called me in.

'Cause he knew I was loyal to him.

Every weekday, come rain or shine,

Massucci was at
that ice cream drive-thru.

Some of the fellas even
called him Sprinkles, right?

Behind his back.

So I put a couple of guys on the inside

and they got me
at that drive-thru window.

The look on that chauffeur's face...

Oh, marone, it was priceless.

Like fish in a barrel.

None of them saw it coming.

That's from a few weeks back.

What do you think? Is it Jackie?

Older, for sure, but that's him.

You're certain?

I listened to a thousand
hours of that voice on wiretap.

- I know it when I hear it.
- We need your help.

Jackie's somehow wrapped up in our case.

Yeah, well...

much as I'd like to get
back in the game, I'm retired.

And my wife would k*ll me.

We need what you know...
the details at your fingertips.

We can't get that from
a file or a search engine.

We need you.

[PHONE RINGS]

Excuse me.

Hey.

[SIGHS]

Thanks, Ortiz. We'll meet you there.

Triple slaying in
a cemetery in East Flatbush.

The sh**t used an as*ault r*fle

and fled in a green Toyota.

It's our UnSub.

You comin'?

[POLICE RADIO CHATTER]

Three people sh*t.

That's the widow.

Mr. Tillis. Worked for the funeral home.

And the brother of the deceased.

- What about witnesses?
- Nothing useful.

They all say it happened so fast.

What're you thinking?

Jackie took out a capo here in .

Freddie Bertolucci.

Guy was at his mother's funeral.

Jackie sh*t him,
fell into an open grave.

He was making a statement with that.

The St. Joseph's Hit.

Jackie talked about it on his podcast.

- He only sh*t one guy.
- Our guy sh*t three.

Maybe he was trying to get one of them

to fall into the grave like the capo.

He's listening to the podcast.

And recreating Jackie's famous hits

using civilians as targets.

We've got an UnSub

who's recreating famous mob hits.

Why would someone want to do that?

Fascination with the mafia.

Glorifies brutality,
promises camaraderie.

Yeah, but mob v*olence
is about business.

Civilians are never targeted.

Maybe these hits are
as close as he can get to it.

Which would make him a copycat.

Copycats are motivated
by one or two things:

either they have a deep desire

to belong to something
bigger than themselves,

or they're trying to
pass off their kills

as the work of someone else.

Well, we can rule out the second reason.

Copying a dead hitman's murders

without cover's pretty reckless.

He must really want to be in the Mob.

It's kinda weird, though, isn't it?

The mafia's not what it used to be.

Extortion,
loan sharking, prostitution...

these things are perennial rackets.

These guys are still out there.

Still doing their thing,
just with crappier cars.

Okay, what if our UnSub
is using these recreations

as some kind of
calling card to get noticed?

If this guy's that desperate
to hook up with a crime family,

somebody on the streets
gonna know who he is.

You still got contacts?

There might be a guy.

Lucca Patino, Jr. His dad was a CI.

I hear he's taking over
for him after he passed.

Let's pay him a visit.

We still gotta find this Jackie.

And his family.

- He had a wife, didn't he?
- Yeah.

Dolce.

I hear she's still alive.

Hana, see if you can find her.

She might be able to lead us to him.

Kristin and Ortiz, the platform
that hosts Jackie's podcast...

they must know where he broadcasts from.

See what they can give us.

Do you know where
Jackie records his podcast?

I can't answer that.
We don't know ourselves.

Well, it's supposedly in a country

with no extradition treaty with the U.S.

- So... Asia? The Caribbean?
- I don't know.

Is it Jackie that does the podcast

or is it someone else?

- I can't answer that either.
- Counselor, you do understand

that we're searching for a fugitive

- who's k*lled six people.
- I do.

And that your company's podcast

could possibly be motivating him.

You're telling us you have server logs,

no IP address that shows
Jackie's location?

What I'm telling you

is that the information you're seeking

is both private and proprietary.

It's protected by federal law

and the contract we have with our client

which prohibits any voluntary
disclosure to third parties.

Yeah, but we're not
a third party, we're the FBI.

I understand.

And company policy is
to comply with any requests

from law enforcement as long
as there is a court order.

You're asking for a search warrant.

A court order.

Signed by a federal magistrate
after judicial review

establishing probable cause.

You bring me that,
and I'm happy to help.

- There he is.
- Terry, good to see you.

Yeah. Didn't think you'd recognize me.

This is Agent Scott.

- Sorry to hear about your dad.
- Thanks.

- I thought you retired.
- Yeah, so did I.

So, solar panels, huh?
That's the new racket?

Just trying to be good
stewards of the environment.

too hard to get made.
White male, early s.

He the one offing women and
children out in Long Island?

Possibly. We think
he might be replicating

Jackie The Fox's hits.

Trying to get noticed.

Well, if that little punk

thinks he's impressing anybody,
he's nuts.

You know him?

No, I've only heard about him.

- Got a name?
- No.

But, uh, there's a guy

[PHONE RINGS]

out in Sheepshead Bay.

Me might be able to help you.
Named Louie.

Kristin, what's up?

No, I don't think a warrant
will be a problem at all.

I got probable cause
standing right here.

Tell 'em I sent you.

No, I'll handle it...

Yeah, go talk to a Louie M.

in Sheepshead Bay
who might know our UnSub.

I'll text you his number.

- Thanks.
- Yeah.

Jackie "The Fox" Bianchi?

- Thought he was dead.
- We did too.

But apparently he's hosting
a podcast somewhere

and we need to find him.

To do that, we need access
to the server logs

of the company that distributes it.

Well, what probable cause do you have

to believe that it's really Jackie?

Oh, it's all there in the application.

Agent Daniels worked his cases

when he was with Organized Crime.

He listened to the podcast

and he says it's Jackie's voice.

He's right outside
if you wanna talk to him.

What crimes is Mr. Bianchi
alleged to have committed?

Well, um, he was wanted
for murders back in the day.

Wanted, yes, yes.

But never arrested or convicted.

I'm talking about crimes in association

with... this application.

It's not illegal to do a podcast, is it?

Come on, Your Honor.

Help a guy out.

"Help a guy out."

What do you say?

[CHUCKLES]

Do you really think
that you can waltz in here

flashing your baby blues

and expect me to sign a warrant based on

a retired field agent's
-year-old recollection

of a younger man's voice?

A man, incidentally,
that the FBI itself says

has been dead since ?

[CLEARS THROAT]

That's not probable cause.

That's a joke.

- I know, but, Your Honor...
- We're done here, Agent...

- Scott.
- Scott. Agent Scott, yeah.

You don't have
sufficient probable cause,

and your application's denied.

So you can let yourself out.

Is that a no?

That's a no. But good luck.

Lucca Patino said
you were a friend of his

and you might be able to help us out.

Yeah, okay. Anything for Lucca.

You know him?

Yeah, I know this guy.

- I fired him today.
- Why is that?

He kept sh**ting his mouth off.

About how he's a paisan.

How he wants "in."

No discipline. No discretion.

already reenacted two of them.

That leaves more.

Maybe we can figure out
which one's next.

Maybe, but these two weren't done

in the order they were

Or in chronological order.

No offense.

Joey might be trying to get the help

of some other low level guys.

We might need to go see Jesse Lamps.

Jesse "Lamps"? Seriously?

Yeah, when he was a kid
he tried to fence some lamps.

Didn't go well, but the name stuck.

Joey's escalating.

If this is his audition,

he's showing that he's not
afraid to be as bold as Jackie.

And that he's willing to get

Hey, is that soy sauce
you're putting in the gravy?

Secret ingredient.

It kicks up the flavor.

Jackie used to say the Italians
got pasta from the Far East,

soy sauce would go with it.

Well, if you think
of anything, give us a ring.

And if you find him alive,

tell him where to send

Doesn't that describe
a lot of the residents here?

She also said he's told
her conflicting stories

about his past.

Claims he's from Chicago,

but "talks like
an extra from 'Goodfellas.'"

Her words, not mine.

Nice work. Mind if we take the lead?

Wouldn't stop you.

All right. It's go time.

Presume that he's armed
and ready for a fight.

Let's roll.

I swear to fricking God,
I will gouge your eyes out!

Something happens to her, I'll k*ll ya!

Get your hands off me.

It's over, Jackie.

You need to tell us
all about Joey Messina.

- Joey who? Who's Joey Messina?
- Sit down.

The nutcase copying your hits,

murdering random people across New York.

Copying me? Is it weird to be flattered?

He contact you?

I don't know what you're talking about.

- You sure about that?
- What do you want?

What do you... what the hell?
What, do you got a warrant?

Actually we do. What you got, Hana?

Joey reached out to you
a couple days ago.

You've been encouraging him.

"I like what you did
in Massapequa. Attaboy!"

- See that?
- Yeah, I don't know.

[MURMURS] That ain't me.

It came directly
from the podcast's account.

Let me guess...
it's not your podcast either.

- Who are you talking to?
- I'm talking to you.

Punk.

So maybe I got a fan out there.
What can I tell ya?

I mean, it's hero worship, really.

What was I gonna do? Call the Feds?

Can you track the messages?

The early ones were
sent from Joey's apartment,

but the last couple days,
he's been using a VPN.

[SIGHS]

Okay Jackie, here's the thing.

You're going back to New York.
No choice about that.

But you do get to decide where you land.

Either you clam up

and we take you to the
Metropolitan Detention Center

and charge Giselle with
harboring a known fugitive...

Hey, you do something to her...

listen to me... you're a dead man.

All right? Good night.

And I'll k*ll the rest of yous too.

- One at a time.
- Good luck with that.

Or you cooperate, help bring Joey in,

and we drop Giselle's charges.

I want it in writing.

Call the US Attorneys' office.

Have a cooperation agreement drawn up.

Signed by a judge.

I don't trust you or any of yous...

any federal prosecutors.
You can all go to hell.

Get this gavone outta here.

Hey! Easy.

Watch your head.

[BACKGROUND CHATTER]

- That was fun.
- Heh-heh.

You really hit the ground
running in New York.

Oh, that reminds me...

thanks for packing up
my apartment after I left.

I keep hoping the boxes
show up some time this century.

Mm. I do work full-time, you know.

- Mm.
- Bryan helped.

Would've taken longer without him.

Right. Bryan. Bryan, Bryan, Bryan.

What a nice guy he is,
helping his girlfriend

pack up her ex-husband's apartment.

I gotta tell you,
this guy's a real sweetheart.

Please. You know you like him.

Fine. Maybe.

You meet anyone?

Too busy chasing bad guys.

Make space for someone.

You deserve to be happy too.

Thanks, kid.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Brace yourself. She's tough.

Good morning, Your Honor.
This is Agent Gibson.

Mm-hmm. You better be here to arrest me

if you're at my home at this hour.

It's black. I didn't know if you...

- This couldn't wait?
- It's an emergency.

I need you to sign off
on the prosecutor's

cooperation agreement
for Jackie Bianchi.

He's alive?

We found him hiding in Las Vegas.

How?

I'm persistent.

- Is he gonna flip on somebody?
- Maybe.

Plus, we need to use him as bait

to arrest the man who's been
terrorizing the city.

I'm not signing this
without reading it first.

We can wait.

Suit yourself.

Told you. Tough.

- Is she coming back?
- Oh, yeah.

She'll be back.

Hey, you... lighten up, you.

Hey, Jackie.

Wow.

Of all the Federal
buildings in all the towns

in all the world...

You always said you wouldn't
be a rat, but here you are.

Cooperation agreement
signed by the judge.

Set up the meeting where we discussed.

If you tip off Joey in any way,
that deal is off.

All right. What are we doing?

Hello, my friend.

[KEYBOARD CLACKING]

Uh... so you wanna get made?

So you wanna... so you wanna be a...

part of this thing of ours.

I could open the door for you,
but... but...

but I need you to do
something for me first.

Meet me for bisque. : p.m.

- Why did you say bisque?
- Bisque.

You're supposed
to say Sam's Lobster House.

It's bisque. That's what that means.

- It's not what it means.
- Is that some kind of

- code word or what?
- No, it's bisque.

I mean, you know,
no self-respecting wise guy's

gonna be that obvious in a message.

Bisque. Come over to me. Just trust me.

Does he talk about it in the podcast?

Because it's in the podcast.
That's right.

And they got
terrific lobster bisque there.

He'll love it.

Jackie, let me tell you something.

If you screw us,

I guarantee you will rot in prison

eating cat food

for the rest
of your miserable existence.

Praise God.

This mutt gonna respond to me or what?

Hmm?

We'll grab Joey before he goes inside.

Bring it on.

[PHONE CHIMES]

- I told you. I told you.
- What are you doing?

- Sit down. Sit down!
- He knows what's going on.

Ivan, what's going on in there?

I need to talk to him right now.

He wants to talk.

This guy's a royal pain in the ass.

[SPEAKS ITALIAN] We got a problem.

This jerkoff changed the meeting place.

You tipped him off, didn't you?

You know, you oughta

my friend. All right?

- Maybe you tipped him off.
- Oh, yeah.

Yeah, that's right,
look at you, the three of yous,

It's a message from Joey.

"Like you always say, change
plans at the last minute,

"and the only person in control

"You want to meet. You're coming to me.

"Empire Fulton Ferry. Near the Carousel.

minutes."

Well, he's not stupid.

Picking a park on the waterfront.

He'll be able to see everyone coming.

We can't get too close.

We'll have to send him
into the park alone

and then follow on foot.

We'll have eyes on you the whole time,

I don't know about this.

There's too many bystanders here.

Got a guy in a black

- I can't see his face.
- Let Jackie confirm.

All right, take off.

Take off right now. Go!

Go! Go!

- He's running.
- He's using Joey to get away!

- Ortiz on Joey!
- On it!

I got Jackie.

Kristin, I'm with you.

[WOMAN SCREAMS]

Ah!

[GRUNTS, GROANS]

You tore my meniscus.

You gotta be a little more
gentle with somebody my age.

Yeah, well, I'm sure it'll be covered

under your prison health plan.

What do you think?

Stop right there! Stop!

Move, move!

Ahh...

Nowhere to run, Joey.

Put your hands up.

Put your hands up. Put your hands up!

I'll jump!

Jackie disappeared in the water.

I might do it too.

Right now, an FBI agent has
her knee in your hero's back.

This life you're trying to be
a part of ends one of two ways.

Either you die young,
or you die in jail.

So you take me in, and I die in jail?

That's your offer?

At least you'll get to see your kid.

Jackie never got that.

Please. You met her.

Do you think that ballbuster
is going to let me see my son?

Nah.

I'm going down even more famous

And how are you gonna do that?

I'm taking a Fed down with me.

Deal's off, jackass.

Giselle will be in jail
for a while, too.

But at least when she gets out,
she'll know exactly

where to find you,
because you're going to be

in the same cell for the rest
of your dying days.

Finally...

[LAUGHS]

Thank for bringing these up, Georgie.

I figured you'd be happy to see 'em.

And this one came overnighted.

- From Vegas?
- Mm-hmm. Yep.

Carmen must've missed something.

- Oh, would you look at that.
- [LAUGHS]

You're the best, Georgie. Thanks again.

No problem.

For God's sakes.

You are aware that I have an office?

- I know. I've been there.
- Exactly.

And that's where I conduct
business, Agent Scott.

- Not here.
- It's Remy.

And this isn't business,

it's a social call.

Wanna have a drink?

- Are you serious?
- %.

I know it's possibly inappropriate

and maybe even a little rude
to show up like this.

- Yes, it is.
- But I did it anyway.

- And why is that?
- Because I like you, Judge.

And I'd love to get to know you better.

How do you know I'm not married?

I work for the FBI.

Kidding. I don't see a ring on it.

- Is that your car?
- Yep.

A ragtop in the city.
Not very practical.

I don't do practical.

I do impulsive.

Is it?

You should try it sometime.

- Hm.
