Can't believe it. They're right on time.
Let's get these boys to their party.
Mama!
It's 10:48
on Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras.
Now let's go back in time to 1964.
The Beach Boys on 105.3 FM,
the heart of New Orleans.
Okay. Take it out wide.
Give the pig some room.
My daughter's on that ferry.
Please. Please.
Oh, God, my daughter!
Do the other side?
A*F New Orleans, Agent Donnelly.
Listen, call New Orleans PD.
I want all surveillance
from the Algiers dock.
Then call City Transit.
I want
the Crescent City Bridge surveillance,
westbound between 10:00 and 11:00.
All right, got it.
Hey. Seen an A*F agent around here?
Yeah, he went down below.
How do I get there?
The south side of the bridge.
You Agent Minuti?
Larry Minuti, A*F?
No, Larry's my partner.
I'm Doug Carlin.
Paul Pryzwarra, FBI.
- How you doing?
- Where's Minuti?
On vacation.
Not anymore. We're calling in
half the region on this one.
You can reach him?
I tried.
He's not picking up his phone.
Well, try harder. It's important.
Obviously.
What are you looking for?
Anything that doesn't belong.
You want to give me a spot?
Yeah.
ANFO.
Ammonium nitrate, water-soluble.
Fuel oil would have burned off
during the blast.
Between the river and the rain,
if ANFO was used,
the only place you'd find it would be...
Underneath this bridge.
That's right.
We can't rule out an accident
at this point.
- It's not officially a crime scene yet.
- Here's a thought.
Why don't we double the perimeter
so we don't have wall-to-wall trailers
down there?
No, we're gonna need
all our manpower
for evidence control
and witness processing.
Now, we need to keep it tight
until we can determine
that it is a crime investigation.
It is a crime investigation.
Got a piece of electric blasting cap
and a strand
of what appears to be leg wire.
About a million of those blue particles
washed up on the Algiers side.
It's probably from
a plastic container or a barrel.
ANFO?
Most likely.
There was post-blast residue
under the Crescent City Bridge.
The insulation on the leg wire
will inform us
of who the manufacturer
of the blasting cap is.
Then we go after
the switching mechanism
and the b*mb's power source.
We probably don't need to wait for
the lab to tell us what we already know,
that this is an expl*sive and a trigger.
And you are?
Oh, I'm sorry. I'm Doug Carlin, A*F.
- Who's in charge?
- We're working on that now.
Gentlemen, please.
Ed Elkins. I'm in charge.
- Oh, good, good, good.
- Yeah.
You're in charge, then? Okay.
First things first.
Where's the coffeepot?
Ed?
Come on, this is a police investigation,
right? Operation.
We gotta have a coffeepot.
Yeah, you'll find it in the back.
- Back there?
- Yeah.
He is in charge.
Thank you, gentlemen.
See anything?
Traffic.
Hit rewind for me.
Hey, did Larry call?
Still not answering his cell.
We left another message.
All right.
- Say, that girl ever get ahold of you?
- What girl?
You know, sexy voice, asked if
you were tall, dark and handsome.
I gave her two out of three.
Two out of three. That's very good.
Hit play.
Thank you.
Hey, Larry, this is Doug.
How you doing?
Listen, I know you're maybe still
pissed off at me,
but you need to
get your behind down here, all right?
- Doug.
- Yeah?
Doug, Orleans Parish on line one.
It's Sheriff Reed.
They pulled a body out of the water,
and they want a profile.
All right,
tell him they don't need a profile.
- Just tell him to bag it. I'll call him back.
- Okay, got it.
Put this on a candy wrapper?
It's all I had.
Cutting back, huh?
Hold it right there.
Yeah, this is A*F Agent Doug Carlin
returning your call.
My cell number is 504-555-0130.
What's that?
Looks like a dude on a bike.
Run it forward a little bit.
Stop right there.
What is he doing?
Going to the bathroom?
Run it forward, run it forward.
- What time does it say?
- 10:47.
- That's before the expl*si*n, isn't it?
- Right before.
Can I have
your attention, please?
Thanks very much for coming.
I'm Jack McCready, special agent
in charge of this investigation.
First, let me say our hearts go out
to all of those affected by this tragedy.
Early estimates
place the number of casualties
at 543 men, women and children.
Now, Lord knows this city has seen
its share of pain,
but unlike Katrina,
this disaster was not an act of nature.
After careful review of evidence
retrieved at the scene,
we have concluded
this was a deliberate act of terrorism,
and the President concurs
with our assessment.
On our end,
we have to ask for your patience,
as the investigation will take time.
It's a unique and complicated
crime scene.
There's no baggage checks.
There's no flight data recorder.
There are maximum casualties,
and most of the evidence
is under 100 feet of muddy water.
There are no shortcuts.
- Kevin, where's Doug?
- You just missed him.
- Well, his car's still here.
- Took the streetcar.
- What? Streetcar?
- Hey, don't look at me.
It's part of his process.
He says it helps him think.
Sheriff Reed.
How you doing?
It's Doug Carlin returning your call.
Hey, Doug. I know you got
your hands full right now.
Yeah, that's okay.
What do you got for me, Bob?
Well, a couple of kids found a woman
face down in the waters
off Algiers Point.
She was burned over 30% of her body.
Right, well, you're gonna see
a lot of that over the next few weeks.
We've just set up ECC.
Just have Crime Scene bag it for us.
Well, we already done that.
The body's at the ME's right now.
Crime Scene's already been there?
Yeah, they've been and gone.
Well, exactly what time
did this woman wash up on shore?
Kid called it in at 10:42 a.m.
You mean 11:42, don't you?
No, I mean 10:42.
I got the sheet right in front of me,
and I got my reading glasses on.
Immediately evident is the
focal charring of the limbs and torso.
Anterior face, neck and chest
are intact,
though swollen
from apparent immersion in water.
Hold her hand for me, will you?
Right here.
There we go.
Each digit of the right hand
has been severed
between the middle
and distal phalanges. Thanks.
Angle of shearing indicates
a single sharp-force trauma,
possibly caused by shrapnel.
No. No,
it's too even to be shrapnel trauma.
Posterior charring
gives off a strong odor,
suggesting perimortem immersion
in burning fuel.
Diesel.
- Accelerant, maybe?
- I don't know.
If she was that close to the b*mb,
she probably wouldn't be
laying here now.
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
You got a UV g*n?
Yeah, on the table behind you.
- You see that?
- Duct tape.
What's that stippling? You see that?
Adhesive probably retained
some substance against the water.
Yeah.
Yeah, go ahead.
I ran down those MPRs for you.
A Claire Kuchever
was reported missing this morning.
Supposed to pick up her father
from the airport, pulled a no-show.
Okay.
All right, Phil,
I want you to do a full autopsy.
Concentrate on time and cause.
Full spread of lab tests. Everything.
Just pretend like the ferry expl*si*n
never happened today, okay?
Absolutely.
Claire?
- She's beautiful, huh?
- Yeah.
Very.
You'll need a photograph
for your investigation, right?
There's plenty in the house.
Plenty to choose from.
Mr. Kuchever, I'm sorry about this,
but I'm gonna need you
to confirm your daughter's identity.
Okay.
Now, anything that you can tell me
about your daughter's activities
over the weekend,
or any time, anything at all,
will be helpful.
Well, I don't know.
My flight got in
at 8:00 a.m. this morning,
and she was supposed to pick me up,
but she wasn't there.
I thought maybe she just overslept,
so I took a cab
and I went straight to her house.
Her and Alan's car was gone,
so I thought
maybe she'd just finally sold it.
- Who's Alan?
- Her fianc.
Or ex-fianc.
They broke up a few months ago.
And where is he now, Alan?
- He moved to Montreal.
- Okay.
She was too good for him, anyway.
I got a sweater that she left,
if you want to take it.
No, that's okay. But if you have keys
to her house, I would appreciate it.
Oh, she had a date.
Last night on the phone, she told me
that she was gonna meet someone,
but she didn't say who.
Her friend Beth set it up.
Beth.
Beth Walsh. Claire baby-sits
her daughter, Abbey, sometimes.
Okay.
Thank you.
That's good for now.
Somebody'll be in touch.
Agent Carlin?
Doug.
I want you to take these.
Well, that's...
Just go through them
when you get a chance.
- Well, it's really not necessary.
- Yes, it is.
See, I know how these things go,
Agent Carlin,
and I need her to matter to you.
Monday, 7:48 p.m.
Hi, Claire. It's Dad.
My flight gets in
at 7:55 tomorrow morning,
so don't stay up too late.
Love you. Bye-bye.
Tuesday, 9:44 a.m.
Claire? Hi, it's Beth. Are you there?
I'm sorry to call you so early,
but you said you were gonna call me
when you got home,
and when you didn't,
I started to get worried.
Beth, is this a joke?
Oh, hey, hey! No.
Like I said, I was just worried
about you, that's all.
I can't talk right now.
Someone's here. I'll call you later.
Claire...
Tuesday, 9:50 a.m.
Tuesday, 10:04 a.m.
Claire, it's Dad. I did say 7:55, didn't I?
I'm here at the airport, waiting for you.
If you're not coming, I hope
you're sending Beth or someone.
Call me.
Tuesday, 1:18 p.m.
Yeah, this is A TF Agent Doug Carlin
returning your call.
My cell number is 504-555-0130.
Tuesday, 1:18 p.m.
Yeah, this is A TF Agent Doug Carlin
returning your call.
My cell number is 504-555-0130.
The blast wave initiated here,
hit the bulkhead
and propagated fore and aft
along the path of least resistance
until it hits this access hatch.
And that's where it gets really bad.
The blast wave continues
into the engine room,
bursting the fuel tanks.
This utility shaft here
acts like a chimney,
draws the thermal components
into the engine room,
which ignites the fuel vapor,
causing a secondary expl*si*n
of far greater magnitude.
Essentially, the initial
device turns the whole ferry into a b*mb
and detonates it.
And so our early guess
is that the b*mb vehicle
was a minivan or SUV.
- Possibly red or tan.
- Make and model?
- Take weeks, maybe months.
- I got a partial on the license plate.
sh*t.
Check all the SUVs and minivans
that are registered in the state.
Anything recently rented or purchased,
anything tied to a theft
or a missing persons report.
- Agent McCready?
- Yeah.
Doug Carlin, A*F.
Oh, yeah. Oklahoma City.
Right. That's right.
This afternoon, I witnessed an autopsy
of a young woman who washed up
off the Poland Wharf.
Heavy fuel burns,
traces of PETN on her face.
PETN, that's the base expl*sive
used by domestic t*rrorists.
She also lost several fingers
in what appeared to be blast damage.
Appeared?
That's right. I checked the tide tables
against the position of the blast.
For her to have washed up
that early and that far upriver,
she would've had to have been k*lled
two hours before the ferry exploded.
Before?
She died before the expl*si*n?
She died before the expl*si*n, yeah.
Her name is Claire Kuchever.
She washed up before the expl*si*n
and against the tide.
- Do you have a scenario?
- Yes, I do.
I believe that somebody abducted her
in her home, taped her mouth,
bound her wrists, burned her alive,
dumped her in the river
so she would appear to be
just another disaster victim.
A disaster that hadn't happened yet.
But the PETN tells us
that the b*mber came in direct contact
with the victim.
You solve her case, you solve this case.
Why this woman?
Good question. Her SUV is missing.
It's a tan and red Bronco.
It could have been stolen
to drive the b*mb to the ferry.
Oh, one more thing.
The victim called the local A*F office
the morning of the expl*si*n.
Yeah.
- We'll look into it.
- Okay.
All right.
Okay.
Where's Larry?
- What?
- Larry Minuti, my partner.
That's his car right there. Is he here?
I thought you said he was on vacation.
Yeah, that's right.
What?
Those cars were brought here
from the Algiers ferry parking lot.
They're the vehicles
that belonged to the victims.
Sorry.
So he's a former Marine?
Yes, sir. Yeah. Local, too.
He's born and bred in New Orleans.
His family still in the area?
Nope. Nothing, really, but his job.
- You like him?
- He's smart.
Yeah, I like him, too.
All right. Let's go find him.
Oklahoma City.
Yeah.
- You and Larry were close?
- Yeah.
Yeah, you know, close enough
to get on each other's nerves.
Doug, I've been put in charge
of a newly-formed investigative unit.
The ferry disaster is our first case,
and I want you on the team.
Why me?
We've got
some unique time constraints.
I need someone who can look
at a crime scene exactly one time,
tell us what's missing,
tell us what shouldn't be there,
tell us what we can ignore
and, especially,
what we need to pursue.
Also, you're local. You know the people
and you know the area.
But why an A*F guy?
Why not? It's your shot.
You want to find the guy
who k*lled Minuti, don't you?
Yes, I do.
I guess you've got some questions.
For me to have questions,
first I'd need to know something.
Now I do have some questions.
Don't touch anything.
We don't need you yet.
Doug, you remember
Dr. Alexander Denny.
Where's my audio?
Compensating for audio delay.
Just a second.
Compensating for a technical blunder
by a tech guy...
Solid stream. Minus four days,
six hours, three minutes, 45 seconds.
And 14 and a half nanoseconds.
Okay.
Anytime you want to jump in here,
be my guest.
- Me?
- Yeah.
What are we looking for?
You know, clues, suspects,
anything out of the norm.
- When was this taken?
- Four and a half days ago.
Gunnars,
try the guy with the backpack.
Oh, that's tender.
I wish I had someone. Okay, widen out.
Let's cruise the car deck for a while,
see what we got.
How can you change the angle
on footage
taken four and a half days ago?
This is a digital recreation.
We're combining all the data we've got
into one fluid shot.
Any angle, any view
within the target area.
Okay, let's cruise the breezeway,
see what we get there.
It's a brand-new program.
It's called Snow White.
Our primary data comes from
seven orbiting satellites,
but at any given time, as many as four
are surveilling one area.
It's like having multiple eyewitnesses,
each with their own vantage point.
Snow White?
Well, which one of the seven dwarfs
can explain to me
how you get the audio?
I don't understand.
Why do you gotta
look at four days ago?
Why don't you just fast-forward it
to the day of the expl*si*n?
We have to wait.
It takes four and a half days
to render this single fluid shot.
The only thing that matters
is that we have exactly one look
at any one time.
Yeah. We can't go back 10 minutes,
you know?
Can't look back and see
if there was a second g*nman.
We can't watch the agent
buying 10 pairs of cargo pants in 1983.
All right? But given enough lead time,
we can look anywhere
within the target area, all right?
It's the when that's always constant.
It's always four days and six hours ago.
Always. You understand?
It's like a single trailing moment of now,
in the past.
Okay. So if you can't move forward
or backward in time,
how is it the image keeps
speeding up like that?
It's not the image that's moving faster,
it's just our shifting point of view.
The passage of time remains constant,
but we can shift our point of view
within the data stream
as fast as we want.
- You understand?
- Yeah. Yeah. No.
Yeah, I know.
So four days from...
Well, actually, three days from now,
since it's after midnight,
you'll be able to look back
to the day of the expl*si*n,
see who did it,
how they did it
and what they did it with.
Yeah, you got it.
The only thing is,
you need to tell us where to look,
'cause, you know, we could miss it.
Besides,
three days could be too late.
He could leave the country,
could strike again.
We need to do whatever we can now.
We know he's out there planning this.
We just don't know where to look.
So, Agent Carlin, where do we look?
Claire Kuchever's house.
Address is in range.
All right, match the viewer settings
to the signal.
- Signal's solid.
- All right, dazzle me.
What?
You see, with Snow White
we can track through walls.
It's part of the same infrared
thermal-imaging stuff
they're using in Iraq.
Hello. This is 877-504-8423.
We triangulate
from four satellites,
pick up the heat signal and reconstruct.
Basically, we can walk through walls.
Claire Kuchever.
Claire? Hello?
Did you know her?
We held hands once,
but no, I didn't know her.
Just checking in,
wondering how you're doing.
Montreal's fantastic,
but my boss is an a*s.
Can you rotate the view,
see what she's looking at?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I want you to come visit, though.
The city's phenomenal.
You're gonna love it.
Claire? Claire?
- Somebody got that?
- Yeah.
Claire, you there?
Listen, I've had a lot of time to think,
and I need you to sell the Bronco
as soon as possible.
Or at least pay me back my half.
I just really need the money.
I love you, honey. Call me.
Unbelievable.
- Where's she... Can you follow her?
- No problem.
Yeah, I'm coming, I'm coming.
What?
It's Stalhuth, at that house you found.
Female m*rder victim, Claire?
Right. What do you got?
We got some bloody cotton swabs
and gauze strips in the bathroom,
some blood in the sink trap.
And, oh, hey, Carlin?
Man, when did you completely forget
how to investigate a crime scene?
What do you mean?
This place is lousy
with your fingerprints.
They're all over the place.
Do me a favor. Just describe what
you see for me, okay? Just humor me.
Woman's bedroom. Vanity mirror.
Dressing table with makeup,
knick-knacks.
Okay, okay, okay, I get it.
Is there anybody there?
Anybody brushing their teeth?
No. Just a couple agents,
including Hendricks, who's bent over,
and I have a fine view
of the crack of his a*s.
Okay, I get the picture.
Talk to you later.
You satisfied?
She was supposed to go on a date
the night before she died.
I want to get her appointment books
and everything brought down here,
you know, her phone records,
credit cards, diaries, anything.
I wanna know everything
there is to know about this woman.
Well, shouldn't we be
concentrating on the ferry?
Well, yeah, it's likely that our guy
cased the ferry first,
but we don't know when.
We don't even know what he looks like.
I mean, we could stare him
right in the face and not know it's him.
But we will notice a change,
even a small change, in her life.
- Hey, Beth.
- Claire.
That guy I've been telling you about
really wants to meet you.
Okay. Tell him
I'll meet him Monday night.
Monday.
How about Sunday
if you're not doing anything?
- No, Monday.
- Great. I'll give him your number.
No, do not give him my number.
I'll go meet him.
- He's not some psycho k*ller.
- Who? Him who?
I don't even know if I can do it Monday.
Hang on.
Show me the book.
Monday works.
- Damn!
- sh*t!
Can we go back?
- No.
- Seriously?
No, it's far too much data
for any existing storage system.
It's a constant stream.
There's no rewind, no second chances.
We can record what we're seeing,
but we can't go back
and choose to look
at something different.
Okay. You said we can record, though?
- Yes.
- Okay.
Tell me, is there any scientific
or forensic insight likely to be gained
by spying on this woman in the shower?
Shanti, we're trying to make sure
the woman's clean.
All right, why don't you,
you know, look around the rest of
the bathroom? Can you do that?
- Gunnars.
- Yeah.
- You back?
- Sorry.
All right.
Icy Hot, Band-A*DS, baby oil.
This woman needs a vice.
What's on the other side of that wall?
Kitchen.
Let's take a look.
Hello? Hello?
Maybe there's someone out there.
Maybe there's a stalker.
Someone there?
Hey, Ginger.
Hello?
Does she know I'm here?
Does she know we're here?
No, impossible. Strictly one-way.
You sure?
Hello?
Okay, let's check the perimeter.
Nobody.
Who's watching her?
We are.
They will also take up
a request for more money for the...
God, thank you for blessing me
with this food and with my life.
I know today's gonna be a great day.
Amen.
You guys singing?
You singing a love song?
You singing a love song
to one another?
What you doing?
Hi.
Yeah, it's been a while.
Everything God has done
will remain forever.
There is nothing to add to it,
nothing to take from it.
God has done this
so that men should be in awe...
Ex didn't show.
Would you?
Whatever is
has already been,
and what will be has been before.
God calls forth the past.
Claire loved music.
There's a church near our house,
and gospel fills the neighborhood.
When she was little,
Claire saw a jazz funeral procession.
She asked me that day,
"Why do they always wait until the end
"to play the good music?"
Claire, honey, the music's playing
for you now and forever.
Were there four limo drivers or five?
Four limos.
Must have been four drivers, right?
He was here.
Address is in range.
Palace Restaurant.
They got good food there.
I'm so sorry for the wait.
I really am.
Listen...
Your table will be ready
in a few minutes.
Drinks are on me, all right?
It is gonna be a few more minutes
for your table...
Go upstairs and see if Table 45
is ready for desserts.
- All right?
- I will.
Hold on. Hang on. Hello? Hello?
Hey, are you the lady
with the Bronco for sale?
- That's him.
- How do you know?
- That's him.
- Well, call up the phone list.
Let's see if it's a number we've tracked.
Yes, that's me. Just a second.
Cover for me, all right?
Keep that tape running, too.
I'm gonna want a recording
of this conversation for voice analysis.
- I'm here. Can you hear me?
- Well, hello, there.
Let me tell you, first off,
I'm what you could call
a real motivated buyer.
I bet you are.
I'm ready to get something right away.
That sounds great.
I need to sell something right away.
Your price looks good,
model, mileage...
So where can I come by and see it?
Don't tell him.
I'm at 827 Kings Oak,
in the French Quarter.
- Need directions?
- Now he knows where she lives.
No, no, I'll find you.
Is tomorrow night good?
Actually, I...
Tomorrow night is not good.
- Tomorrow?
- I'm going out tomorrow.
He wants to wait for the last
possible moment to steal her car,
then it's too late to report it.
How does Tuesday sound?
Got it. 504-555-0147.
I see it. Tracking.
I think
that's gonna be too late.
See, I need the vehicle
Tuesday morning.
Is there anyone else there
that can show me the car?
- No. Sorry.
- He's thinking.
I'll tell you what. There's a K5 Blazer...
A date means
somebody's gonna be expecting her
and will miss her
if she doesn't show up.
That could ruin his plans.
Shanti, I want to see this guy.
No good. It's an outdoor phone booth.
Three miles out of range.
I hope to hear from you.
Can we get someone out there
with a goggle rig?
What's that do? Extend the range?
Yeah, it's immediate line of sight.
But we can use it to gather data
outside the target area.
Provided there's any data to gather.
How long is this guy
gonna be at the phone booth?
Not long.
- Have a good night.
- Thanks.
Bye.
Story of my life.
Yeah, story of my life, too.
All right, now we heard
the voice of our b*mber,
now we're gonna go after him
the old-fashioned way.
Can we get video surveillance
on that phone booth?
We can access all surveillance
available to any government agency.
Okay, this is from the ATM camera
across the street.
All right. Let's fast-forward to the exact
time of his phone call to Claire.
Where are we supposed to be looking?
Behind the guy on the left.
Can you enhance it, Gunnars?
Not enough for an ID.
Wait, go back.
Can you rewind it just a little bit?
Stop. What is that on the ground?
Looks like a camcorder bag, maybe.
- We have facial recognition software?
- Yeah.
Let's use it on the bag.
Cross-match it to all the bags
on the south side of the city
in the 48 hours leading up
to the expl*si*n, all right?
Don't think it's ever been
used this way.
Yeah, that's kind of a simple image
to go for a match.
Well, we got nowhere else to go.
- Look, same bag.
- Bingo.
Okay, freeze it.
Yeah, looks like the same guy, too.
Where is this?
Security camera
at the Algiers ferry dock.
Okay, when is this?
Two nights before the expl*si*n.
Seven hours from now.
Two nights before the expl*si*n
is seven hours from now?
Seven hours from now, we will be able
to access this point in our time window.
Gotcha.
Kind of creepy, seeing that lady's life
go down in flames.
Yep.
Makes you appreciate life.
I suggest you go home
and jump on whoever you got.
- That's what I'm gonna do.
- Nobody home.
How'd you let that happen?
Everything you have, you lose, right?
Mother, father, gone.
Good looks, Pryzwarra, gone.
Loved ones gone in a second.
That's what this job teaches you,
doesn't it?
No matter what,
no matter how hard you grab
onto something, you still lose it, right?
Well, we're gonna grab onto this guy
in a couple hours.
We're gonna nail this son of a b*tch.
What's wrong?
No matter what, we still lose her.
Right?

Military helicopters that have
served as an emergency force
are leaving the city. Hundreds
of thousands of New Orleans residents
have been unable to come back home,
and entire neighborhoods...
Did you talk to him?
...are still waiting to rebuild.
This while governmental agencies...
Oh, no.
What is it?
Mom asked me to say a prayer
for David this morning, but I forgot.
- Okay.
- Mom is gonna be so mad at me.
She's not gonna be mad at you.
Come on.
We'll just say one now, all right?
- It's too late.
- It's never too late, sweetie.
We'll just pray
that David had a good day, all right?
How about this? You pray for David,
and I'll pray for my mom, okay?
- Okay.
- All right.
- What's going on?
- Give it a second.
- Gunnars.
- It's rebooting. It's coming back.
- Are we online?
- Wait.
- Are we online?
- Gunnars!
- What the hell's going on?
- Shanti, are we back online?
I don't know.
Something broached the field.
- What broached the field?
- That broached the field, right there.
That broached the field, right there.
That's what broached the field.
Now, you wanna tell me
what the hell this thing is?
It's not surveillance, Paul.
It's not electronic thermal imaging.
You guys have figured out a way
to look into the past. Yes or no?
- No.
- You're lying.
- You're lying, and you know it.
- I've told you everything I can.
She saw it, Paul.
I pointed this thing at her just now,
and she responded to it
from four and a half days ago.
- Explain that to me.
- All right.
Somebody explain it!
Hit it, Shanti.
For three years,
Cambridge has been working
for National Reconnaissance
on an R and D grant.
Okay.
We were attempting
to use concentrated bursts of energy
to enhance the sensitivity
of optical telescopes.
In the process, we had a breakthrough.
Given enough energy,
we could warp the very fabric of space.
I said explain it to me, not talk science.
- They found a way to...
- Look, I'll tell you what.
Why don't you guys just keep talking?
I'll just sit here
until you figure out
what it is you really wanna tell me.
They found a way
to fold space back onto itself.
All right, look. We're used to viewing
space as flat, right?
- Like this piece of paper.
- Right.
To see something from a distance,
light has always had to travel
the long way
across the flat space in between.
But given what I was trying to explain,
we can fold the space,
bring the target closer to us,
create what's known as
an Einstein-Rosen bridge,
otherwise known as a wormhole,
suspend it via gravitational field.
- That's what we're looking at?
- That's it.
What's on the other end of the bridge?
Claire's house.
Wow.
Basically, we're folding space
in a higher dimension
to create an instantaneous link
between two distant points.
- Instantaneous?
- Well, that's what we hoped for
and that's what we expected.
But the electrical force...
We used huge amounts of energy
to create this bridge.
All right, how huge?
You remember that little blackout
we had a few years back?
- Yes, I do.
- New York blamed Canada.
- Right.
- Canada blamed Michigan.
Half the Northeast.
You're saying you guys...
- Fifty million homes. Right.
- My bad.
Well, I still say we blame Canada, but...
Okay, so why can't I see this bridge?
It's not visible to the human eye.
I mean, it's real, though.
It's just as real and just as solid
as a cell phone signal or a radio wave.
Right. Well, I don't know
how a cell phone works.
I just know how to use it.
So how do we use this?
We can look back four and a half days.
- And what, we can look anywhere?
- Limited radius.
Right, right, right.
Looking into the past.
In a sense,
we're always looking in the past.
Even light reflected
from yourself in the mirror
takes some time to reflect back.
Let me get this straight.
You're trying to tell me
that on the other side of this bridge
- is the actual past?
- Yes.
- Wow.
- Yeah. But look, look, look.
We created this thing by pure accident.
All right?
This space and time...
This time window is a complete fluke.
All right? And everybody is terrified
of screwing with it for fear of losing it
or suffering the consequences
of God knows what,
which is why it can only be used
as a retroactive tool...
Hey, let me ask you something.
Is she alive or is she dead?
- You went to her funeral, Doug.
- I know that,
but I think the question still applies.
Is she alive or is she dead?
All right. Life, like time and space,
is not merely a local phenomenon.
All right!
Am I asking a hard question?
Looks like I picked
a bad week to stop snorting hash.
All right, I tell you what.
I'll speak slow, so those of you with
Ph. D.'s in the room can understand.
It... Here. Look. Here's a monitor, right?
Now the monitor is broken. It's dead.
It is not temporarily transitioned
to another state of entropy.
It's dead, right?
Now, is she alive or is she dead?
- She's alive.
- All right.
Now we're getting somewhere.
All right, now, you said
light could go back. What else?
- Nothing.
- Something else could be sent back.
Come on, Paul. Something.
What? A body? A human being?
- No.
- Not a person. Not alive, anyway.
- Why not?
- Because you can't beat the physics.
The electromagnetic field.
Look, you transition across
what's known as
the Wheeler Boundary, all right?
An EM pulse annihilates
all electrical activity.
That's your heartbeat,
that's brainwaves, that's everything.
So what? You haven't tried a person?
Let's just say
that we've done enough tests
to know that it's not even possible.
It's not even theoretically possible.
The hamster goes back, dead.
- A drosophila fly, dead.
- What about a radio signal?
What about that?
We could send a radio...
- A radio signal?
- Yeah, a radio signal.
- Won't work. Electrical.
- The field would scramble it.
- All right, then a note, a warning note.
- No.
- A single piece of paper. One sheet.
- No.
- If we keep the mass low...
- No!
This could work! It could work.
Sure. We know
where the guy's gonna be.
We can apprehend him
and put him away
before he even blows up the boat.
- And how do we do that, exactly?
- We send it to ourselves!
You send it to me. Yeah, send it to me.
Send it to my office.
Send it to my office
four and a half days ago,
an anonymous tip, and we can capture
this guy before he even meets Claire.
We know he's gonna be at the dock.
Whatever you did, you did it already.
Whether you send this note or you
don't send this note, it doesn't matter.
You cannot change the past.
It's physically impossible.
What if there's more than physics?
Okay. Something spiritual, right?
- Yeah, something spiritual.
- Okay, okay, okay. Look.
Just try to think of it this way.
God's mind is made up about this.
All right?
I mean, you know,
call it fate, call it destiny, whatever.
But it already happened,
it will keep happening,
- and it always will happen.
- Maybe.
And why don't we call it fate,
since we're calling it something?
Maybe you're right. Maybe you guys
are exactly right. I don't know.
All I know is this. For all of my career,
I've been trying to catch people
after they do something horrible.
For once in my life,
I'd like to catch somebody
before they do something horrible.
All right? Can you understand that?
Address is in range.
Two L's. "Surveilling," two L's.
Since this is such a tremendous waste
of taxpayer money,
the least we could do
is get the spelling right.
That's not necessarily true.
Branching universe theory holds
that you can do...
- Oh, branching universe theory.
- Look, hold it. All right.
- No, no, no.
- I'll show you.
The traditional view of time is linear,
like a river flowing from the past
toward the future.
But you can change
the course of a river, right?
Exactly. Introduce a significant enough
event at any point in this river
and you create a new branch,
still flowing toward the future,
but along a different route.
Changed.
Yeah, but that river is the Mississippi,
and we're lobbing
what amounts to a pebble into it.
That's a very few tiny ripples in a kind
of big body of water, don't you think?
Traditionalist.
Say we do create this new branch.
What happens to the old one?
To this one?
Ask the radical.
Well, it might continue
parallel to the new branch,
but most likely it ceases to exist.
The idea is, we cease to exist.
All right? This version of us, anyway.
You know, we never came here.
We didn't meet Doug.
We don't remember it ever happening.
Well, that's worth $10 billion
right there.
Would've been a lot faster
if you'd written it yourself.
Right. Then I recognize
my own handwriting
and the universe blows up.
We're ready.
All right, third floor, southwest corner.
That's where we are.
How'd you get that information?
Good police work.
That's me. I can hear me.
- I don't wanna play games with you.
- Where am I?
- I'm not playing games.
- Yeah, you are.
- No, I'm not.
- There are protocols... Yeah, you are.
- There I am.
- Is that Minuti?
- There's procedures...
- Yep. That's my partner, Larry.
Look, I know how this job works,
you know how this job works.
Jesus, I forgot all about this part.
All right, let's find a nice, happy place
to push the note onto.
- That your desk?
- Yeah, that's my...
Okay. Line us up.
When I peg a guy on a hunch,
that's good police work,
not some conspiracy
to keep you out of the loop, all right?
- You know what, Doug?
- Okay, kid, start pushing.
Expand the wave past the note.
I can't watch your back
if you're holding out on me.
Why not?
If my memory serves me right,
we better hurry up,
'cause I think I'm about to leave.
- I need more cowbell.
- I'm trying.
- Okay, well, I...
- Good!
Just give me a second.
- Don't talk to each other.
- Expand.
I'm about to leave.
...another partner?
How about that? How about that?
- Everybody relax.
- Okay. Yeah.
- Let's go.
- I'm working on it.
Prepare for the final power surge.
Ready?
- Have a good vacation.
- All right. Go, go, go!
Walk away.
What the hell happened?
I don't know.
It doesn't matter. Doesn't matter.
Pull it back!
- Did it go through?
- I don't know! I don't know!
Pull it back.
- There it is.
- It went through.
- That's right.
- It's through.
It went through!
Great.
Whoa, whoa.
No, wait a minute. Hang on.
It ain't great yet. I don't come back.
Put it down, Larry. I'm not coming back.
Put it down, Larry.
Larry, don't do it.
- Follow him.
- I'm on him.
All right, look, let's... You know what?
Let's cut away from Minuti.
The b*mber's on his way to the dock.
He's due there any minute.
We'll come back to Minuti
when he gets there, all right?
All right.
Okay, where is he?
Can we circle it?
We should be able to see him by now.
That's him. There he is. All right.
- Holy sh*t.
- All right.
Move in on him real close.
I want to see his... That's him.
That's him.
That's our guy. That's him.
At the bridge, the cemetery, the ATM.
That's our guy.
Shanti, see if you can get
an ID, facial ID on him.
- Give me some time.
- Okay. All right. Take your time.
- There's your partner.
- I see him.
Try to move in on his truck.
See if we can get a plate.
- No plate.
- Get back on him.
Stay on him.
Where's Minuti?
Federal agent! Turn the engine off!
Turn the engine off!
Tilt back down.
He's still breathing.
- What can we do?
- I don't know what to do.
He's traveling east.
He's traveling out of range.
- Okay, what can we do? Anything?
- I don't know,
but if we don't do something fast,
I'm gonna lose this guy.
We're losing the signal.
We have to boost the signal.
We need to chase him
with the goggle rig.
Yeah, well,
Gunnars is a little busy right now,
and he's the only one who can use it.
- Where is it?
- What, the rig? It's...
- Yeah, the rig. Where is it?
- It's in his Hummer.
- Keys in there?
- Yeah.
All right, quiet, everybody. It's him.
- Carlin.
- Where's he now?
- Is he going east?
- Yes.
Okay, he's going east,
going up on De Gaulle.
All right, just try to keep him in sight,
and keep feeding me directions.
I'll try and track him with this goggle rig.
- Can he do that?
- Yeah, if he can catch up to the image
and keep him in sight, that could work.
Hey, how do you turn this thing on?
There's an on-off button
on the back of the rig.
Okay, I see it.
It's really simple. Wherever you look,
the eyepiece will auto-focus,
and we'll see what you see.
Okay, you're live. You're on.
- Try the goggles.
- Hang on, hang on.
- He's gone. Out of range.
- What?
- Where's he headed?
- He's headed toward the I-10.
East or west?
I don't know.
I don't know.
East or west?
We lost the signal. We're blind in here.
- I don't know.
- All right, hang on.
Oh, sh*t!
What? What happened?
What happened?
This is trippy.
Doug, look straight ahead.
We've got the window slaved
to your goggles.
We are seeing what you're seeing
four days in the past.
Okay, I got him. I got him.
He's back in range.
He's going west, not east,
on the Crescent City Bridge.
There he is. That's him. Opposite lane.
- I got him.
- That's him. That's him.
I got him!
Watch the traffic.
- What was that?
- I think he hit something.
Doug, you've gotta stay
with him. You're gonna lose him again.
Doug, what's happening?
I got him! I got him.
All right, all right, all right.
Good. Now stay with him.
Send paramedics
to the Crescent City Bridge.
Got that?
I lost him.
- I got him! I got him!
- All right. All right.
That's him.
He's headed for the 10 to the bayou.
I can see him. He's right in front of me.
Carlin!
What was that?
What the hell was that?
Doug, are you all right?
Doug!
Doug?
I think it's broken. I can't see anything.
We still have a signal here.
You're still transmitting.
- You can see?
- We'll talk you through it.
Can you still drive?
Yeah, yeah. Where is he?
Give us a 360 with the goggle rig.
There! There he is!
Pan the thing around.
- Which way?
- To your right.
To your right.
There! There he is!
- He's taking the road to the bayou!
- Right there?
The road is blocked.
Take the expressway.
It parallels the road.
Go. Go, go!
See him?
Pan right. Pan right!
You still see him?
He's at the end of the bridge.
- You hear me?
- He's at the end of the bridge.
Keep talking to me.
I don't know what else to tell you.
I feel very, very close to you right now.
He took the exit ramp beneath you.
- Take the next off-ramp.
- Take the next off-ramp!
All right, I'm on the off-ramp.
Go right, then double back on yourself.
All right, I got it.
All right, take another right.
Still see him?
He's heading to the bayou.
Take a left here.
Good, good, good.
Take it easy, Doug.
He's dead ahead of you.
Okay, okay, okay.
He's slowing down, coming to a fence.
Do you see it?
Yeah, I see it.
Doug, if you're gonna
leave the Hummer, take the backpack.
It's the power source for the rig.
- Can you hear me?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, we can hear you.
We can hear you.
All right.
What's he doing now?
He's pulled around
the back of the building.
Looks like a b*mb went off.
Really?
We see an intact structure here.
- No damage?
- No, none.
Looks like a vehicle's inside.
An ambulance. You see that?
No. Nothing.
See anything?
He's dead ahead of you.
Doug, he's pulling Minuti out of the car.
Where?
All right, now pan to the right.
Pan to the right.
- More right.
- You got him.
Yeah, he's dragging him out of the car.
Do you see him?
- Yeah.
- Yes. Right in front of you.
Boost the audio for me.
Audio boosted.
Turn around.
Turn around behind you.
- Larry?
- Pan back to the right.
- You've got him now.
- Where is he?
He's being dragged on the concrete.
Larry!
What's that sound?
What's the sound?
He's pouring some kind of accelerant
over Agent Minuti.
I think it's the diesel fuel,
like at the ferry.
He's waking up.
Brace yourselves. I think
you're about to witness a m*rder.
If we hadn't sent him there,
he wouldn't be dead now.
No, he was already dead from the ferry.
We just changed how he died.
We don't know that.
He could've been standing
right next to you,
right until we sent that note.
You'd need a branching
multiple universe for that to happen.
Oh, come on.
We can't change anything.
We didn't change anything.
That's what I've been trying to tell you.
I'll tell you what we did.
The suspect used a stolen Blazer
to case the dock.
So now he has a truck big enough
to drive a b*mb onto the ferry.
Now Larry shows up, right?
Larry puts b*llet holes
through the windshield.
- You want a mask?
- No. No, I'm good, thanks.
Larry puts b*llet holes
through the windshield,
leaves blood all over the back seat,
so now our b*mber needs a new truck,
you understand? Claire's truck.
You hungry?
Yeah, we changed one thing,
but by changing one thing,
we didn't change anything.
What's on TV?
Hey, hey, hey, we got a name.
- Carroll Oerstadt.
- What?
- Who is that?
- Owner of that bait camp Doug found.
Truck registration,
airboat registration, match.
And another property.
New Orleans.
- Is this a he or a she?
- It's a he. Let's go.
Clear!
Testing, one, two, three, four.
Testing, one, two, three, four.
A TF New Orleans, conducting
interview with Carroll Oerstadt.
You've waived your right
to counsel, right?
- Yes, sir.
- Okay.
I'm fascinated with your precision.
It's not very often we see that level
of expertise around here,
and if it's all right with you,
I'd like to use this interview
to educate my colleagues
in law enforcement.
- Yes, sir.
- Good. Good.
Let's talk about motive.
Why would you use expl*sives
against the US Navy?
- Correction, sir. US Government.
- US Government.
It says here that you tried
to enlist in the Marines.
You were rejected.
You tried to enlist in the Army,
you were rejected again.
Why do you think they did that?
Because they don't want patriots.
The military no longer recognizes
commitment and purpose.
They thought I was overcommitted
and psychologically unstable.
They didn't want to understand
my value.
They understand it now.
I believe so. Yes, sir.
- You're A*F, right?
- Yes, I am.
- Got a smoke?
- No, I don't. But I can get you one.
- Would you like one?
- Yes.
Okay. Anything you want to say,
just talk into the mike.
A man can always use more alcohol,
tobacco and firearms.
I can think of one more thing.
It's like the Revolutionary w*r,
you know what I mean?
"One man's t*rror1st
is another man's patriot, " isn't it?
Yeah?
Exactly.
- Yeah.
- You get it.
- This wasn't about revenge.
- What was it about?
Destiny.
Destiny?
You've been asking me
about my motives.
- Right. Right.
- My methods.
They're all connected.
Everything's connected.
Okay.
How was Claire Kuchever connected?
I needed a car.
- And that's it?
- No, well, something
- that couldn't be traced back to me.
- Right.
I had one ready till that cop showed up.
That cop was a federal agent.
Lawrence Minuti. My partner.
You shot him.
He... I was about to burn him
and he was waking up, you know?
I mean, I'm not cruel.
Well, why didn't you "do that"
for Claire Kuchever?
Well, because I needed her
to look like a ferry victim,
- and a b*llet would've given it away.
- I see.
I went to her house
on the pretense of buying her car.
I took her from behind, taped her mouth
and threw a hood over her head.
Then?
I bound her wrists and her ankles
and I drove her back to my place.
I loaded the device into her car
and then I soaked her
with the gasoline.
Jesus.
And?
I think you know
what happened after that.
No, I don't know. I want you to tell me.
You gotta talk.
I mean, you know, come on, hero.
What happened after that?
I'll tell you what happened after that.
You k*lled 543 people.
How do you feel about that?
I think that you were a m*rder*r
right from the beginning.
Sometimes a little human collateral
is the cost of freedom.
To me,
those people were w*r casualties,
but to you, they're just evidence.
That'll do. We got him.
What'd you say?
You think you know what's coming?
You don't have a clue.
I know where you're going.
I know you're gonna be away
for a long time. I know that.
- This case will never even go to trial.
- No?
- 'Cause I seen what's coming.
- Did... Have you? What?
What is in this glass?
You've seen what's coming, huh?
Okay, what's coming? You tell me.
I told you earlier I have a destiny,
a purpose.
Satan reasons like man,
but God thinks of eternity.
Well, I prostrate myself before a world
that's going to hell in a handbag,
'cause in all eternity,
I am here and I will be remembered.
That's destiny.
A b*mb has a destiny,
a predetermined fate
set by the hand of its creator.
And anyone who tries to alter
that destiny will be destroyed.
Anyone who tries to stop it
from happening will cause it to happen.
And that's what you don't understand.
We're not here to coexist.
I'm here to win.
So you'd better have
some divine intervention, buddy.
You're gonna need it.
You'd better have some K-Y.
You're gonna need it.
What am I supposed to do?
- We're shutting you down.
- What?
Yeah, we got what we need.
The forensics, the suspect,
a confession. We're done.
Sir, perhaps we should continue
and watch the actual crime.
- The ferry bombing.
- Right. He's right.
I mean, we can't just
go on the confession alone.
We need an airtight case.
We need to collect more evidence.
Well, collecting evidence
would've been fine, Agent Carly.
- You took it a little further than that.
- Agent Carlin. Carlin.
My name is Carlin, not Carly.
We had protocols in place.
There's strict protocols.
And then you had to push it,
and now an agent's dead.
Sir, by one theory,
that already happened.
We're done. Power it down.
Pack it up. On to the next case.
- What about Claire?
- What...
Lookit, charging Oerstadt
in the Kuchever m*rder
is gonna raise too many questions
about how we obtained the evidence.
I understand that, sir,
but what about Claire?
Are we just gonna drop the case?
We got him on the ferry bombing,
we got him on k*lling a federal agent.
- That's enough to get him the needle.
- I cannot accept that, sir.
Well, you know, I don't give a rat's a*s
what you can accept.
- She doesn't matter.
- He's gonna k*ll her.
- In 12 hours, he's gonna k*ll her.
- He k*lled her four days ago.
You were at the funeral.
What's wrong with you?
It had to happen.
I delayed turning in my report
till we caught the guy.
Hey, mission accomplished.
This is a victory, Doug.
Hey. Now, my job is closure.
Your job is to help facilitate
that closure.
Then you tell me,
what do I tell her father?
We caught the son of a b*tch.
We can't save the victims.
It's not our job
to make the relatives feel better.
We lose everything that we care about.
Those are your words.
Doug, it's not your fault
that Claire dies.
Yeah, that's one theory.
Lieutenant Junior Grade Dianne Kerry.
Martin Kyle.
Commander Francis Lacey, retired.
Elaine Lacey.
Chief Petty Officer Darren McAndrews.
Lorraine McAndrews.
Electronics Technician Lisa Melville.
Chaplain Rabbi Benjamin Mendelsson.
Denny? It's Doug.
Well, I can't say
I wasn't expecting this call.
Look, you know what happens
if you try this.
We both know what happens if I don't.
Well, not a lot of guinea pigs volunteer
to die in the name of science.
Well, then we have to make sure
I end up somewhere
besides the morgue.
Can you help me?
I'll see you when you get here.
Doug?
Do me a favor.
When you finish, turn off the lights.
You do that one more time,
you set off every alarm in the joint.
Can't take it.
Gotta keep the mass
as low as possible.
You gotta take everything off.
- You can keep your underwear on.
- Thank you very much.
Thought you said you didn't believe
in changing the past.
Right. Well, I also believe in God.
Just don't tell anyone.
- I'm gonna tell everybody.
- Yeah?
You know, when I open up the throttle
on this thing...
Yeah, I know. EM field, flatline. I got it.
Thing of it is,
no matter how clever we think we are,
the most probable outcome
of our little experiment
is that four and a half days ago
you get a call from the coroner's office.
"Hey, Agent Carlin,
I want you to come down here.
"There's something you should see."
And next thing you know,
you're standing over a corpse
and it's you.
Well, you can be wrong a million times.
You only gotta be right once.
Besides, I think I'd remember
if that happened, right?
So I gotta face out toward you?
Yeah, face out.
Just like the note, only bigger.
- You ready?
- No.
You don't have to do this.
What if I already have?
Right.
Doug?
Doug?
Hey. Hello?
- You okay in there?
- Yeah.
- You good?
- Yeah, yeah, I'm good.
I'm beside myself.
Am I still here?
For now. You ready?
- Yeah, I'm ready.
- All right.
Looking forward to walking up to you
four days ago
and blowing your mind, though.
Well, if that happens,
maybe you can tell me
what it's like to meet your younger self.
All right, I'll let you know.
All right, remember, the ferry blows
at 10:50 on Fat Tuesday, okay?
Yeah.
Here we go.
See you yesterday.
God willing.
Good, good.
- You don't have to do this.
- Hello?
Maybe I already have.
Maybe I already have.
What the hell?
All right, hold on, everybody.
The reserve generators should kick in.
Nobody move.
That was interesting.
- Doctor!
- Who the hell is that?
Where'd he come from?
All right, let's get him into Trauma.
Trauma 2, Trauma 2!
This is weird.
- Defib.
- Clear!
Recharge it again.
Clear!
- Recharge to 300.
- Charging.
Clear!
Resume CPR. One, two, three,
four, five, six, seven, eight.
thirty-four degrees.
Forty-nine was our low temperature
at the airport.
Gonna be at that
or just maybe above that for tonight.
Let me show you why.
Look, the winds are starting...
- ...a few of them come back.
- I'm thinking about getting a tattoo.
- Whoa!
- I'm a federal agent.
I need your keys. I need a vehicle.
There's keys in the truck there.
Which one? Right here?
Put your hands down.
Hands on the table.
Hold your donut. Hands right there.
Water it.
This might be a metaphor
for existence itself.
A fish struggles instinctively
against an almost formless antagonist.
The fish is a largemouth bass.
Here's the news at 8:30.
Federal officials are still baffled
by the massive blackout
that darkened the entire eastern half
of the country early this morning.
Hey!
Jesus.
Wait a minute.
Hey, it's okay. Wait a minute!
Listen. Claire!
I'm a federal agent. Hang on, hang on.
All right, it's okay. It's okay. It's okay.
I'm a federal agent. It's okay. It's okay.
You're safe. You're all right, okay?
I'm a federal agent. You're safe.
You're safe. Look at me. Come here.
You're safe. He's gone. All right?
- Get me out of here!
- All right. All right.
Get me out of here!
It's all right. It's okay. It's okay.
- Get me out of here.
- All right, let me get your feet.
It's all right. It's all right. It's all right.
Hey, look at me. Look at me.
I'm gonna get you out of here, okay?
All right.
How'd you know
there'd be keys in this truck?
That's a good question. I didn't know.
- He's a t*rror1st?
- Yeah.
His name is Carroll Oerstadt.
I'm a part of a special surveillance unit.
We've been tracking him.
He's planning on blowing up
the Canal Street Ferry today at 10:50.
- So we're going to the police?
- No, it's too complicated.
By the time we get them up to speed,
the ferry will be gone.
We gotta go
straight to the Algiers dock.
I don't think you're gonna make it.
You're losing too much blood.
No, I gotta make it. I only got an hour
and 40 minutes to catch up to this guy.
What if you don't make it?
What happens then?
If I don't make it...
What?
Your house is on the way.
We'll go by your house,
and I'll get cleaned up.
- I'll drop you off. All right?
- All right.
Hey, Ginger.
She hates strangers.
You need anything?
You get cleaned up.
I'll take care of this.
- You sure? I could bind that for you.
- No, I'm sure. You go ahead.
I'm gonna need to borrow
one of your boyfriend's jackets, though.
Sure.
Hey, listen.
- You shouldn't wear that.
- What?
Why don't you put on a different one?
The blue and white one. Anything.
It's just...
Just trust me.
The victim wore a dress like that
and it wouldn't be good.
- Okay.
- Trust me.
All right, I'll go change. I'll be right out.
Stop right there! Don't move!
Don't move. I'm calling the police.
- I am the police.
- No, you're not.
- Yes, I am.
- No, you're not!
You didn't ask me any questions.
You didn't take a statement.
And you knew where my house was,
what's in my closet.
- Who are you?
- I'm Doug Carlin. I'm an A*F agent.
I'm part of a special surveillance unit
that's been tracking the man
- who was trying to k*ll you.
- How do I know that?
I had a hood over my head.
You could be him.
Just think about it, Claire.
Look at my face.
You scratched the man's face.
Do I have a scratch on my face?
- You scratched him, didn't you?
- Get on the floor.
Now! Get on the floor!
All the way!
A*F New Orleans, Agent Donnelly.
Yes, is there an Agent Douglas Carlin
working out of that branch?
Yes, there is,
but he's not here right now.
Would you like to leave a message?
Can you describe him for me, please?
How tall, skin color.
I don't know.
He's 6'3", black, not bad-looking.
Okay, have him call me back
at 877-504-8423.
Okay, wait. My phone pad's empty.
All right, got it.
Hello?
Get up.
Are you gonna tell me the truth?
Are you gonna tell me why you're here,
why this is happening
and none of it makes sense?
None of it.
What if you had to tell someone
the most important thing in the world,
but you knew they'd never believe you?
What would you do?
I'd try.
You never know
what someone might believe.
I don't understand what's...
What's happening.
I gotta hurry up and get down there.
Why are you the only one
who can stop him?
Well, because I'm the only one
that knows his plan.
I'm the only one that knows
where he's gonna be
and exactly what he's gonna do.
How do you know that?
I mean, how'd you know
those things about me?
Well, for the sake of argument,
let's just say that the government
has a special device
that allows me to know
what's gonna happen ahead of time.
Then how come you didn't know
I was gonna pull a g*n on you?
I did. No, I didn't.
- Is that okay?
- Yeah, it's good.
One second.
- I think that's gonna stay. Is that okay?
- Yeah, it's great.
Okay.
- All right. I'm not very good at this.
- You're very good.
What's the matter?
Jesus.
I haven't changed a thing.
I gotta go. And you gotta go with me.
Come on.
What?
- I thought you said I was safe now.
- I was wrong. I was wrong.
You gotta go with me now. Right now.
Wait, wait, wait! Don't answer it.
Don't answer it. I'll prove it to you.
That's your friend Beth calling.
Let the machine pick it up.
She's gonna say,
"Hi, Claire. It's Beth. Are you there?
I'm sorry to call you so early,
"but when you didn't call me last night
I got worried."
Claire? Hi, it's Beth. Are you there?
I'm sorry to call you so early,
but you said you were gonna call me
when you got home,
and when you didn't,
I started to get worried.
- Beth, is this a joke?
- Oh, hey, hey! No.
Like I said, I was just worried
about you, that's all.
I can't talk right now.
Someone's here. I'll call you later.
Claire...
Believe me, the only one
you're gonna be safe with is me.
- Okay.
- Let's go.
I don't understand.
Why not just call the police
and have them arrest him at the dock?
He'll set the b*mb off
right there on the spot.
He can't know he's been compromised
until it's too late for him
to do anything about it.
He'll set the timer, walk away on foot,
get on his motorcycle
and ride to the Crescent City Bridge
to watch.
Okay, then what?
You defuse the b*mb?
Then I defuse the b*mb.
There's my truck.
- All these people.
- There he is.
Where?
You see the military jacket
coming this way?
It's just what you said.
All right,
you see those officers behind you?
- Yeah.
- When the ferry pulls off,
I want you to tell them about the b*mb,
all right?
- They'll believe me?
- They better believe you.
- Come on, they'll arrest me.
- They won't arrest you.
They'll take you into custody.
You'll be fine. That's a good thing.
Don't turn around.
Doug...
Be careful.
Your attention, please.
Passengers are not allowed
on the car deck
when the ferry is in motion.
Sir! Sir.
Excuse me, sir, you're gonna
have to move to the upper deck.
- Passengers aren't allowed here.
- Okay.
Can't believe it. They're right on time.
Let's get these boys to their party.
Mama!
Excuse me, sir? Sir!
There's no passengers allowed
on the car deck during transit.
No passengers allowed, sir.
Let's go! Let's go!
It's destiny, Oerstadt.
Satan reasons like a man,
but God thinks of eternity.
What did you say?
I'm saying it's gonna take
a little divine intervention here, buddy.
I'm coming out.
What'd you say?
I thought you were a patriot.
Oh, I am.
Patriotism requires sacrifice.
- I'm willing to sacrifice.
- Yeah? Who? Her? Me?
You're willing to sacrifice others,
but not yourself.
The Tree of Liberty must be refreshed
with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Right.
Sometimes a little human collateral
is the cost of freedom, isn't it?
Who are you, Oerstadt?
Who are you?
It's not supposed to be this way.
You all right?
- I k*lled him.
- No, you didn't. I did.
It's 10:48
on Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras.
Now let's go back in time to 1964.
- We're gonna die.
- No, we're not.
...on 105.3 FM,
the heart of New Orleans.
Hit the gas.
Hit the gas!
Put your hands in the air
and step out of the vehicle now!
We get out now, everybody dies.
You have until the count of three!
Hit it.
One...
But my daughter's on that ferry.
Please. Please.
Oh, God, my daughter!
Chrissie!
Chrissie!
- Oh, Chrissie! Chrissie!
- It's my mom!
Mom!
Ma'am? We're gonna need you
to stay right here.
Someone's on the way over
to take a statement
and ask you some questions, okay?
- Bobby.
- Doug.
- How you doing?
- All right.
Got a live one over here.
Pulled her out of the drink.
Somehow involved in all of this.
Okay.
- How you doing?
- Doug?
That's right.
- You okay?
- Yeah.
Have we met?
Yeah. Yeah, we have.
It's okay. Come on.
Come on.
- You okay?
- Yeah.
- You sure?
- Yeah.
Okay. I'll get you warmed up.
What is it?
What is it?
Doug.
What if you had to tell someone
the most important thing in the world,
but you knew they'd never believe you?
I'd try.
No.
