03x09 - The Architect

[bunniefuu]

ANNOUNCER: Jin Shen wants you to believe

he's a simple family man

who wants to protect his community.

Outsourcing policing

is not the answer to
our community's problems.

ANNOUNCER: But he's hiding something,

protecting his daughter's secret.

ANNOUNCER: What else is Jin Shen hiding?

- [SOUND OF PUNCHES BEING THROWN ON TV]
- NICKY ON TV: Hyah! Hyah!

- That's what I'm talking about.

ANNOUNCER: Vote for the
candidate you can trust.

Vote for Anthony Chan.

I'm Anthony Chan, and
I approve this message.

He cannot do that. Can he?

Already has. The ad's
all over the place.

It's all lies. Nicky
doesn't hurt people.

She helps people.

Lao Gong, we have to fight this.

So, Anthony calls Nicky a criminal
while he's paying off drug dealers?

You're sitting on all that dirt.
We should fight fire with fire.

I'm mad, too.

But I'm not gonna let him drag us down.

- I'm not going there.
- Baba, this will hurt your campaign.

Sweetie, it doesn't matter.

What you do for this city every day,

there's nothing to be ashamed of.

- Nicky, you ok?
- Yeah, I'm fine.

There's no use dwelling, right?

- ALTHEA: Where are you going?
- NICKY: Got a class to teach.

Lao Po.

Mm. Mm.

Lao Gong, that ad.

I know our daughter. She is not ok.

I know, I know.

It's not just the ad.

You know, it's what happened
to her Shifu, with Bo.

Yeah, but that ad,

it's something that we can
actually do something about.

Well, there's one way to stop those ads.

When I started this, I made a promise

that nothing will happen to this family.

Uh... no, no. You are not
dropping out of that race, not now.

That disgusting ad just proves it.

We need new leaders.

We need you.

You take care of the community,
and I will take care of the family.

- [ALTHEA SIGHS]
- How's everyone?

I used to imagine my family
getting famous one day.

This is not what I had in mind.

Oh. What is this?

The best espresso machine money can buy.

Dual P.I.D. temperature
control, built-in Wi-Fi.

- ALTHEA: Uh, sounds expensive.
- DENNIS: Oh, yeah.

This baby retails for almost grand.

- A gift from my parents.
- Well, extravagant but thoughtful.

At least your parents
are listening to you.

They're trying to buy me back.

I know that this is just the beginning.

Well, we've made it through
months of burnt coffee.

What's another ?

Return it.

Tell your parents that Dennis
Soong cannot be bought, hmm?

- [MAN GROANING]
- SECOND MAN: Settle down.

FIRST MAN: Get your hands off
me! I didn't do anything. Aah!

Damian?

Hey! Ryan, Ryan Shen, I didn't
do anything! You gotta help me.

- You know him?
- Uh, yeah. Friend of the family.

- Whoa.
- Uh, I need to assess the patient.

Only Dr. Fredrickson's
cleared to see this patient.

- Uh, where is everyone?
- Shifu, we know it isn't true.

Those ads must be doctored.

You're Shaolin.

You tell us all the time...

only use v*olence as a last resort.

Yeah.

Let's get... uh, let's get started.

NICKY, VOICE-OVER: Only use
v*olence as a last resort.

- Liar!
- [THUD]

Uhh! Uhh! Uhh! Uhh!

Are you ok?

- STUDENT: Shifu?
- NICKY: Don't.

Don't call me that.

Sorry. Class is canceled.

Shifu.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

- ALTHEA: Hey, Ryan.
- RYAN: Hey, Althea.

I think I’m on to something.

- Like a case?
- Uh, maybe. I don't know.

I'm covering a shift at Hayes Memorial.

Damian Wu was brought in, under arrest.

Nicky helped him turn
his life around last year.

Uh, then why is he at the E.R.?

Broken arm. Guess it happened
when the cops busted him.

He was begging for help.

He seems really scared. Something's off.

Usually when a patient
under arrest comes in,

they've got a cop glued to their side.

To maintain chain of custody.

RYAN: Right. But the cops bounced

and left Damian with these armed guards.

I saw one of their badges.

It said "DSE."

Delta Security Endeavors?

RYAN: Yup.

Ordinance went into effect this week.

RYAN: There's an odd code in
Damian's chart, like he's been tagged,

and I'm % sure I saw the same code

in the Delta files Nadia stole.

- Texting it to you.
- [CELL PHONE VIBRATES]

Looks like your freakishly good
memory actually serves a purpose,

- when you're not using it for evil.
- I'm sorry, Althea.

b*ating you at Go Fish is not evil.

Uh, how about hustling me out of

weeks' allowance and
my Spice Girls notebook?

Well, I needed something
to tally my wins.

EVAN: Yeah. Codes are a match.

What the hell are Delta codes
doing in a patient's chart?

No idea. But...

- [DOOR CLOSES]
- Ahem. I checked the hospital's

patients' former records.

They've been tagged with the same code.

Whatever's going on, it's big.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Hi. Me again. Dr. Ryan Shen.

Dr. Fredrickson wanted me to discuss

some sensitive medical
information with the patient.

- GUARD: Told you already.
- RYAN: Ok, ok, cool. Cool. Ah!

I just need a verbal confirmation...

that you're aware of the implications

of denying a patient
proper medical care.

I mean, just saying, he strokes out

because you stopped me from getting

an accurate medical history...

[WINCES] You could get sued.

A stroke? From a broken arm?

I'm guessing you're unfamiliar
with compartment syndrome,

neuropraxia, osteonecrosis?

They're just a few
life-threatening complications

that can result from a broken arm.

All right.

Ok, that's gonna blow up in
my face. Tell me everything fast.

Cops busted into my
apartment last night.

I was sleeping. I panicked.

Ran to the back stairs.
Tumbled the whole flight down.

The next thing I know, I'm under arrest.

- RYAN: Well, do you know why?
- DAMIAN: Armed robbery.

They said they found
a g*n in my apartment

that was used to rob a market in Soma.

I've never even touched a g*n.

You gotta talk to Nicky.
She'll know I'm innocent.

Ok. Did they ask you any
questions, read your rights?

Yeah. But then they made
me sign this... this form.

What... what kind of form?

Cops said I could go to jail or...

or I could go into some sort of rehab.

I was so out of it, I signed.

I'm scared, man. Those
guys in the polos.

- RYAN: What?
- DAMIAN: I've seen them before.

A few nights ago, heading
back from my shift.

I thought they were following me,

but I figured I was just
being paranoid, you know?

But then they show up here

and the cops just hand me over to them?

Ryan, man, you can't let them take me.

- RYAN: I...
- [DOOR OPENS]

- Oh. Dr. Fredrickson.
- Dr. Shen.

I don't recall assigning
you to this patient.

I suggest you get back to work.

- RYAN: Right. I just...
- DR. FREDRICKSON: Now.

Why are you giving me these?

I need you to take
over the hunt for Xiao,

cover me for a while.

- HENRY: Nicky.
- NICKY: I've thought about this.

Saving Pei-Ling is way
too important to give up,

but I... can't do this right now.

- I can't be the leader.
- What are you gonna do?

I don't know.

I wish there was a... place,
somewhere to go, hide.

I can't stand being looked
at right now by anyone.

Look, you lost your Shifu.
Under the circumstances...

No. You... you saw Bo.

What I did to him, I
completely lost control.

I called the hospital in Oakland.

Bo regained consciousness
a few hours ago.

Look, he's gonna be ok.

Still, I... I violated my principles...

Everything I believe in,
everything Pei-Ling taught me.

Right now, the whole
city's looking at me

like I'm some kind of monster.

And the thing is I
feel like they're right.

[CELL PHONE VIBRATING]

- NICKY: Hey, Ryan.
- RYAN: Nicky, I need your help.

Nicky.

I'm sorry. I tried to
give you some space,

but Damian's really freaked.

He asked for you. He
says you saved his life.

- NICKY: Where is he?
- RYAN: This way.

I kept tabs on Damian.

I know he was staying out of trouble.

I really think he was.

Damian said Delta was spying on him

days before the robbery even happened.

Something's going on.

Meathead in there won't
just let you walk in.

Nadia said the cops had a bunch
of evidence against Damian,

mostly surveillance video
of him near the market.

Surveillance video recorded
by Delta Security Endeavors?

Those cameras they've been
putting up all over the city?

Could be. Whatever it was,

it was enough for a search warrant.

Then Damian panicked and fled,

and then they found
evidence at his place

and that was enough for the arrest.

How can the cops and the hospital

just hand Damian over
to Delta's custody?

That form he signed,
it was a plea agreement.

- It's perfectly legal.
- Nadia got us a copy.

He waived his right to a jury trial

in exchange for a lesser sentence...

Voluntary release into Delta's
new rehabilitation program.

Ryan said Damian signed this
when he was half-conscious, injured,

terrified in the back of a squad car.

Real voluntary.

Ordinance unlocked a ton of cash

for pretrial diversion programs.

They can do a lot of good,

but it looks like the city's funneling

most of those funds right
back into this Delta program.

And Delta's pockets.

This is Delta Security
Endeavors' CEO, David Wheeler.

He's a self-styled data whiz.

He's obsessed with
numbers, statistics, money.

It's clear in the interview
that SF is ground zero.

Succeed here, then they can sell

their security services
across the country.

Wheeler says point blank
that he will do anything

to increase Delta's impact
and scope across the city.

- NICKY: Anything, huh?
- [DOORBELL RINGS]

Ok. Ryan said Damian

was being followed by Delta g*ons.

His medical records
were even tagged by Delta

days before the arrest.

It's like they're targeting him
for this new rehab program.

If this Wheeler guy's
as ruthless as he sounds,

maybe Delta framed Damian.

- Who's that from?
- Mrs. Soong.

A congratulatory gift
for my new P.I. job.

- Do you see this?
- Yeah.

- This is exquisite.
- What's the problem?

The problem is I love it.

We agreed not to accept
any big-ticket items from them,

but I had no idea they'd
be sending me this.

[SIGHS]

- What are you gonna do?
- Can you help?

- Give me some of that Shaolin wisdom.
- I, um... I'm not feeling

very Shaolin at the moment.

Ok, but since you asked,

maybe try asking yourself,

"will this bring me lasting happiness?"

Mei-Li, hi. I'm on my way out.

Anthony, I just want to talk.

Sorry. Now is not a great time.

My staff is waiting. Strategy session.

Yeah, well, I suppose we
can discuss this publicly,

perhaps at your next campaign event?

Jin did tell me how much you enjoy

open dialogue in front
of your potential voters.

Look, I get why you're upset.

You mean for attacking my family

and turning my daughter,
who has sacrificed

so much for this city,
into some sort of villain?

It's politics, Mei-Li.

Nothing's off-limits, not even family.

On that point, I agree.

- Anthony?
- Mama?

Mei-Li told me about
your television ads.

Attacking some of our oldest friends?

How could you?

Any luck finding Damian?

Not yet. Local press has barely covered

our new post-Ordinance reality.

Can't find anything on these
Delta-owned rehab facilities.

ALTHEA: Delta's picked up a lot
of real estate post-earthquake.

No idea where they're setting up shop.

Just talked to Nadia.

She got the D.A. to put in a request

for information about exactly
where Damian's being held.

Unfortunately, Delta's
slow-rolling their response,

and it could take days
before we get an answer.

We don't have days.

Damian was on the right path,

getting his life together.

Now Delta's holding him at
some quasi-legal black site

against his will on false charges.

We don't know where he is. The city
doesn't even know. Only Delta does.

We've already tried hacking them.
Their systems are too strong.

Well, we've only tried hacking them

through a remote system.

Thanks to Evan, we know

where most of Delta's fancy
new surveillance cameras

have been put up around the city.

If we tamper with one of the cameras,

pull the right cable,
it might make the system

vulnerable enough for us to hack
into the feed's transmission.

You think that'll get
us into Delta's system?

ALTHEA: It's worth a sh*t.

The Apothecary bar has
two cameras covering it,

dual angles.

We could access one of
the cameras easily enough.

Delta would have eyes
on us the whole time.

They'd catch us before we even start.

Not if we give them
something else to look at.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Ready when you are.

Camera one is blinded.

- Which one, Althea?
- The Cat cable, the red one.

Ok.

And we're in. Ok.

Navigate to the shell
script in the cgi-bin,

then rewrite the query
string to force a reboot.

Hmm. Every company has
at least one lazy coder.

DENNIS: Uh, guys? Clouds are coming in.

I'm losing sunlight fast.

Dennis, we need you to buy
a little more time for Nicky.

ALTHEA: Evan, can't you just...

Althea, until recently,
the only experience

I've had with hackers
was putting them away.

I am going as fast as I can.

- Hey.
- [EXCITED CHATTER]

Dennis, what the hell?

DENNIS: ♪ Happy birthday... ♪

Good job.

[ANTHONY SPEAKING CHINESE]

It's just how politics works.

I've heard you out, son.

Nothing you say excuses your behavior.

You owe the Shens an apology,

- and you can start with Mei-Li.
- Carol, if I may.

Anthony, I don't need any apology.

I just need you to take out those ads.

You heard her. Do it.

Or call whoever you have to. I'll wait.

- The campaign...
- Your campaign, your decision.

No, it's not.

[EXHALES SLOWLY]

The ad wasn't my idea.

And it wasn't my choice.

I was forced to run it.

Forced? I don't understand.

The blackmail. Jin told me.

Are they still controlling you?

CAROL: Blackmail?

What could anyone
possibly have over you?

Richard, Mama.

Your brother?

We took care of all that.

I got him the help he needed.

The mess he made... it's
bigger than he let you know.

Cleaning it up, I had to get dirty.

Now, certain... people

are using it to get their way.

Delta Security Endeavors.

But why would they go
through all that trouble

just to take Jin's campaign down?

It's not just about b*ating Jin.

They were very specific

about the att*ck they wanted me to run.

Delta wants to take Nicky down.

ALTHEA: Now run the I.P.
address to map the network.

Use the SNMP to run a port scan
by targeting the I.P. range. Huh.

- What?
- Well, Delta's code obfuscation.

Their data's unreachable.

What... what does that
mean? You can't find Damian?

- So we got nothing after all that?
- Not nothing. I see Delta's got

one active port with a
significant power draw.

- What does that tell us?
- Well, out of the or so properties

that Delta's acquired around
the city, this has to be their hub,

where they're storing all their data.

If we could get inside Delta's HQ
and into their mainframe...

- I could locate the rehab facility.
- Potentially a whole lot more.

You'd basically be
inside Delta's brain.

- [CELL PHONE VIBRATING]
- Hello?

Figured a celebration
round was in order.

Mm-hmm.

See what I did there? With the balloons?

You did great. But I have
one more favor to ask.

[SIGHS] Another gift from your parents.

I need you to return it for me.

- You sure? This bag is...
- Exquisite.

But upon further reflection,

I know this bag will not
bring me lasting happiness.

- You ok?
- That was Mama.

She's at Anthony's campaign office.

Turns out Delta's behind those ads.

- EVAN: What?
- NICKY: Yeah.

Anthony was just following orders.

This isn't about Baba's
campaign. Delta's targeting me.

ALTHEA: Why? Do they know
you've been working against them?

Maybe.

Maybe now is not the right time

for Nicky to stage a break-in
to Delta's headquarters.

You're already on their radar.

ALTHEA: After what they did to Damian,

imagine what they'd do to
you, especially after that ad.

You're under a microscope.

No. Look, I've been pretty
mixed up about everything,

but I know I did right by Damian.

I can't let them do this to him.

Delta's been working in the shadows
for months, transforming our city,

and we don't even know the
half of what they're up to.

I've gotta take this chance.

Delta thinks I'm a thr*at?
Let's prove 'em right.

Pickup isn't usually
for another minutes.

You're early. Where are... ?

Rob and Omar? They ate some
bad pastrami. We got called to sub in.

Guess we're just a
little more efficient.

- What?
- You're just... such a natural.

I mean, yeah, this was my dream job.

After firefighter, before astronaut.

- NICKY: Uh-huh.
- HENRY: I was born to wear this.

I'll be on lookout. You got minutes.

Hey. Glad you got your
fire back. Be careful.

ALTHEA ON COMMS: Nicky.
What are we seeing?

Nothing yet. Just a
whole lot of security.

I'm trying to get to the mainframe,
but this place is crawling.

Ok. I'm in.

I need to bypass the login.

Run an SQL with a new injection query,

like I taught you, subbing for

for the user input.

Ok. It worked.

[WHISPERING] Damian.

Ok. I found Damian.

Ok. Delta's holding him at
their property in Bayview.

Damian was right. Delta's
been watching him for weeks.

Ok, they must have shared
the surveillance footage

with SFPD, putting him on their radar.

So, they were framing him.

Yeah, it looks like, but
those cameras are legal.

This still isn't proof.

Ok, these clips are what
Delta wanted the cops to see,

showing Damian at the scene of
the crime. But what if there's more?

Ok, Althea, how did you recover

those payroll files that
Baba accidentally deleted?

You're gonna wanna pull up the network's

root navigation index.

Once you do that, filter
through the entries

using the word "delete,"
restoring the backup.

Ok. There's a video of Damian
playing basketball alone... at : P.M.

- That's the time of the robbery.
- Delta buried it.

- This video, it'll exonerate him?
- Yup. Sending you the file now.

All right. Got it. Sending to Nadia.

Nicky, we have what
we need to free Damian.

That's all we have. We need more.

I'm gonna search that code
Damian was tagged with.

I got something.

This is way bigger than Damian.

- Ok, he was just the beginning.
- What are you seeing?

A list, a huge list.

They're targeting
hundreds of SF residents,

amassing tons of data on them.

They're all candidates for lockup.

Seb's name is on this list.

I gotta get you these files.

No, that transfer is
huge. It'll take too long.

Nicky, you're gonna get yourself caught.

No. I... I don't care.

We have to comb through all of this

and find something we
can use to take them down.

Ok? What do I do?

Hey! I got a truck at the gate.

Rob and Omar?

- Huh. Must be some kind of a mix-up.
- Yeah. Where's your partner?

[GONG SINGING IN CHINESE ON SOUNDTRACK]

- [ALARM BLARING]
- We've been made. Get out. Now.

No. I'm finishing this.
Henry, you get to safety.

- [ALARM BLARING]
- [SOFTLY] Come on.

[ALARM BLARING]

- [LOUD FEEDBACK]
- Uh!

Nicky, can you hear me?

Uh, Althea?

[ALARM CONTINUES BLARING]

Heh.

Nicky Shen.

Wow. Lucky me.

Face time with the CEO.

"The Architect."

Guess I shouldn't be surprised.

You launched a whole
PR campaign against me.

- We have taken notice.
- Why? Why come after me?

San Francisco is the key to our success.

Now, the city comes with
its own challenges...

High rents, a nominally
liberal electorate.

But with time...

all these difficulties would
just become part of our pitch,

proof to the world if
we can tame this city,

we can tame any city.

The one quirk that we
didn't plan on... is you.

San Francisco has a hero.

How can we be the savior

if the city already has one?

Most of the city doesn't
even know who I am.

Well... they do now.

I think this is about numbers.

To sell yourself to the city,

you need stats on your
side... high crime numbers.

To profit off of crime,
you need bodies, arrests.

I get to crime before the cops do,

that means fewer bodies in jail,

fewer people in your rehab program.

I am bad for your numbers.

What?

Oh, nothing. I just...

- feel a lot better about myself.
- Hmm.

I know you framed Damian.

I got it out... the evidence you buried.

Damian can be replaced.

Your other candidates,

you gonna frame them, too?

I'm sorry. Nicky,
you've got it all wrong.

Damian was a special case.

He was a perfect model
for a candidate...

Young, likable,

a criminal record but
nothing too unsavory.

As for the others, well, let's just say

they don't require such efforts...

- Thanks to the algorithm.
- The algorithm?

Our proprietary technology.

Right here in this building,

we are creating the future of security,

the next step in predictive policing.

Given sufficient data,
our algorithm can predict

who will commit a crime in the future.

You say you get to
crime when it happens.

Kudos. Good for you.

But us? We get there before it happens.

That's your plan? Arrest people
before they've committed a crime?

Yes.

[ALARM BLARING]

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATION]

Preemptive arrest.

That's unconstitutional. It's illegal.

Ohh, it is now.

True innovators anticipate the future.

Our algorithm isn't
made for today's world

with its antiquated laws
and "civil liberties"...

Inefficiencies that stand in the way

of real solutions and real security.

I know this city.

- The people here won't let you do this.
- They already have.

Their representatives
passed Ordinance .

- After you blackmailed them.
- Public support for Ordinance

stands at %.

It's been in effect for days.

I don't see any protests. Do you?

- Then I'll stop you.
- From where? Prison?

What are you gonna do?

I have you on video breaking in...

illegally accessing
private company materials,

and assaulting members
of my security team.

The police will be
here in a few minutes.

You know, I admire you, Nicky.

We're not that different.

We both want the same thing...

Peace, security, and a crime-free city.

I am nothing like you.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[LOUD CLANKING]

- NICKY: Henry?
- HENRY: Hi.

- NICKY: The cops are coming.
- HENRY: Oh, I heard.

That's why we better move.

- HENRY: Uhh. Come on.
- NICKY: I... I can't.

- HENRY: What?
- NICKY: This isn't Delta.

This is the police. They
have my name, my face.

I broke the law to get in
here, and they have proof.

We'll worry about that
when we get out. Let's go.

No. I don't want to be a fugitive.

- I have to face the consequences.
- I cannot just leave you here.

Henry, go.

I need you out there.
Xiao is still in the wind.

If Delta isn't stopped,
they will destroy this city.

I need you to help my family.

Lead them. You're the only one who can.

All right. Nadia got
the surveillance video

to D.A. Ursillo for review.

She thinks Damian's
sentence will be vacated

in the next hours.

ALTHEA: That's great. But...

Nicky's still being processed.

We should know more tomorrow.

Nicky will be ok.

She will.

We're gonna do everything
we can to get her out.

- In the meantime, we can't give up.
- What do you mean?

Xiao's still out there.
Pei-Ling needs us.

Nicky was Delta's biggest obstacle,

and they just took her off the board.

Right now, we're all that's left.

We're gonna keep fighting

'cause that's what we do.

You're back.

I got your text.

Still had my key.

Hey. What are you doing?

Hey. I'm glad you reached out.

I know I said I needed space and I...

- Seb, you don't have to...
- I do.

The way I left.

I'm sorry.

What happened with Xiao

scared the hell out of me,

and it made me realize that I never...

really faced what I did.

So... I finally did it...

Something I should've
done a long time ago.

Uh, what?

I talked to them...

The family of the man I k*lled.

I called them. We had a sit-down.

I looked them right
in their eyes, and...

I apologized.

Well, how'd they react?

They heard me out,

then they showed me the door.

It's their right.

They don't owe me forgiveness.

Still, I'm glad I did it.

I... want you back.

I want you to stay,

but that conspiracy
we've been digging into...

Delta's making big moves.

their list. You're a target.

And they already got her and
if they got you, too, I...

You need to leave the city.
You need to go. You gotta go.

There's some bad stuff going down

and you and your family are fighting it?

Then I'm fighting it with you,

even with a target on my back.

Sorry, bub. I'm not going anywhere.

Pebbles, where is everyone?

Well, uh, Mama and Baba are upstairs,

and Nicky's in jail.

- Wait. What?
- Um...

You know how we decided
to return those gifts

and tell your parents we
do not need their money?

- Yeah...
- Well, um...

Nicky's getting arraigned tomorrow,

and we can't afford her bail, so...

We need your parents' money.

Yeah.
