One, they need to get themselves

Two, they want revenge.
And three, love of country.

Working informants requires
gathering human Intel.

And homo sapiens

It's too risky

Do you think you can get him

Easy. I can charm anyone.

You don't flip informants with charm.

Well, did he make any statements?

No, but sometimes my aura
intimidates people into silence.

You must convince him to become
an informant for a federal crime

LAURA: Alright, Hollywood.

Who is this possible informant of yours?

His name is Joshua Mackey.

He's a bellhop at the Seabury Hotel.

And you wouldn't believe
what kind of stuff

transpires behind hotel room doors.

Endangered animal trade,
illegal gambling.

Seabury... isn't that where
the cast of "Vampire Cop"

used to party?

How do you know that?

- Well...
- Maybe did a little research?

Maybe worked up a little profile?

Well, I can't train someone
if I don't know who they are.

Alright.

Hit me. What's your profile?

Well, as an actor, you played
hyper-masculine hero roles,

which suggests
you're drawn subconsciously

to characters who embody traits
you're probably lacking.

- Wow.
- Don't take it personally.

I-I-I don't.
The "wow" is just to indicate

how... wrong your profile is.

Just so you know, most actors,

we don't get to choose our roles.

The first job I got, I was cast
as a hunky guy with dimples.

After that, I got typecast.
But nice try, though.

Great. I'll put a case number on it.

No. Not yet. Only if

most wanted criminals

because of my C.I.?

GARZA: Victor Quincannon.

This is a huge arrest for us.

He runs one of the most violent
weapons-dealing operations

in the world.

Last reported sighting was
in Luxembourg four years ago.

The Bureau, Interpol, MI6,

everyone with a badge has been
on the hunt for this guy.

Facing that kind of heat, it makes sense

that he would go under the knife
to change his appearance.

Has he woke up from the anesthetic?

Not yet. He was transferred
to Shaw Memorial.

But LAPD has him secured.

Statements from the surgical team?

All lawyered up.
But given who their patient is,

that's no surprise.

Nice work, Simone.

Thank you, sir.

How's your C.I. doing?

He's a little shaken up,
but he'll be fine.

He'll be more than fine
once he gets that reward money

for finding Quincannon.

ELENA: Except the guy you found
isn't Quincannon.

Your suspect's prints
belong to a Walter Krebs,

L.A. local and former postal worker.

No record of criminal history.

SIMONE: The hell's a mailman doing

plastic surgery center?

I've heard about super fans
going under the knife

to look like their favorite celebs,

but why would somebody want
to Stan for a wanted fugitive?

- Makes no sense.
- Someone getting paid to do it.

It's not a crazy idea

that a guy like Quincannon
would want a body double.

Carter, Simone, I want you there

We might have a...

[CLEARS THROAT] bit of a problem.

How the hell did you get
mixed up in all of this?

I went through a vicious divorce,

and I wanted to start dating again.

So I posted some thirst-trap
photos on Cliptalk.

And, uh, out of the blue,

I get DM'd by this anonymous account

talking about a "opportunity."

What kind of opportunity?

The kind that pays a million bucks

to be a body double for a prominent man.

Anyway, if... If I wanted the part,

I had to get these surgeries

to make my face identical to his.

And that was appealing to you?

Yeah. My life sucks.

I'm broke. I'm in debt.
I've got no prospects.

Then $250,000 gets wired
directly into my bank account.

And you have no idea
who this prominent man was?

No, and to be honest with you,
for that kind of money,

I didn't care.

They said I was gonna be
living in a mansion.

I was gonna be
taking meetings as the guy.

I was gonna be driving
his luxury cars. Sold.

The man's name is Victor Quincannon.

He's a violent criminal
on the FBI's Most Wanted List.

Oh, that's not good.

No kidding. Did you ever meet with him?

Uh, no. I was supposed
to report for training

after my six surgeries,

you know, to learn
his mannerisms and stuff.

You got an address?

No, I still have three more surgeries.

Uh, probably not gonna
get those now, huh?

Unh-unh.

GARZA: Agent Acres!

Do you know what's worse
than getting a call

from a furious congressman?
Getting a call from his wife.

You know, I didn't get divorced
three times

only to have another man's wife
rip me a new one!

LAURA: Matt.

I specifically said not to engage.

Now the congressman's wife is mortified

that the whole city is gonna
know about their kinky sex life,

and somehow it's my fault.

- I'm really sorry, sir.
- It's on me, boss.

I shouldn't have taken
my eyes off of him.

GARZA: It's clear that you do not know

how to work an informant,
so just stop trying.

They traced Krebs' wire payment
to an offshore account,

one that happens to pay a mortgage
for a mansion in Laguna.

real Quincannon is living now.

Don't you "Hey, Daddy" me.

what to say to Anton's father.

He claims that Anton's working
for you and the FBI.

- What the fresh hell is...

You made him an informant.

I didn't say that.

The bigger question is, are you

The AUSA signed off on Logan's deal,

and he says Quincannon's
house is in Miami.

Wheels up in 30.

Okay. Thanks, boss.

♪♪

Oh, yo, miss, could I have
a rum and Coke, please?

Do I look like
a flight attendant to you?

Don't answer that.

Why is he here?

Logan spent two weeks
at Quincannon's Miami residence

becoming him, but he was blindfolded

to and from the airport, so all he knows

is that it's some
"big ass spot" on the water.

Which describes half of Miami.

LAURA: What we know about Quincannon

is he's a paranoid recluse
with a ton of enemies.

So he'd be looking
for seclusion, security.

Control is paramount for a guy like him.

And Miami has a ton of private
islands that offer just that.

Yeah, that's the problem.

It leaves hundreds of homes
that fit that profile.

Well, by the time we land,
I expect us to figure out

which one it is.

How are we going to do that?

You tell me.

It's the reason why
I chose each of you, hmm?

To be outside-the-box thinkers.

I mean, this is a long shot,

but there is an acting technique
that uses sensory detail.

I-I could walk Logan through
his ride from the airport,

his memory, and see if maybe
there's some clues

as to where Quincannon took him.

Give it a shot.

BRENDON: Alright, we're going to

have you take a couple of deep breaths.

[BRENDAN AND LOGAN BREATHE DEEPLY]

[BOTH EXHALE SLOWLY]

Alright. Now you're inside the SUV.

They've just put the blindfold on you.

Tell us what you feel.
And focus on one sense.

What do you hear as you
pull away from the airport?

It's getting louder.

Okay.

And we're speeding up,

like we're going on a freeway.

CARTER: There are two freeways
out of Miami International

that head towards the ocean,
the 112 and the 836.

The 112 is a toll road.

Do you remember stopping at a toll?

No, no. No toll.

So it's the 836, then.

Then we start to slow down
as the road starts to change.

Okay, maybe you're on a new road.

What do you taste and smell?

Salt water,

like we're on some sort of bridge.

GARZA: Highway 836 feeds right
into the MacArthur Causeway.

And then we're on that road
for like couple minutes.

And then we stop, and I hear a blinker.

- We're turning.
- Right or left?

Left. Yep, we're turning left.

There are three islands
off the causeway.

There's Star, Palm, and Hibiscus.

LOGAN: And then the window rolls down,

and the driver's talking to
the security guard in Spanish.

- What is he saying?
- Vamos

a número ciento

treinta y dos.

Number 132. That's a house number.

But all three islands
have houses with that number.

What do you hear next?

LOGAN: Gate opens, and we pull forward.

The road is, um... it's bumpy.
It's uneven.

132 Star Island
has a cobblestone driveway.

Hey, here.

You recognize that house?

Yeah. Yeah, I think that's it.

It's owned by a shell corp
registered in Luxembourg.

Luxembourg? That's where
Quincannon was last seen.

This is a lot of conjecture.
I don't know, Matt.

How sure are you?

That's his place.

I'm calling in for a warrant.

- Good job.
- Wow.

Have you seen the sous vide?

FBI! Freeze!

SIMONE: Show me your hands!

- Where's Quincannon?
- Who?

- Victor Quincannon.
- Never heard of him.

I'm Andrew Wilson.
This is my wife, Mindy.

You two own this house?

No, we're just renting.
We moved in two months ago.

ID checks out. Andrew Wilson.

House is clear. No Quincannon.

Looks like we hit the wrong place.

Guess we should have
knocked first. Our bad.

The SAC is gonna eat this one up.

That sense memory thing
was yet another bust.

No, that was clever.

This one wasn't your fault.

Wonder how we got it so wrong.

I don't know.

CARTER: You say you've been
renting for two months?

ANDREW: Yeah. We moved here
from Chicago.

Couldn't take the winters anymore.

So who's this Quincannon guy
you're after?

Well, unfortunately, we can't talk about

ongoing investigations,
but we can get you squared away

with the paperwork for reimbursement.

And I'll add your shoes
to the damage assessment.

Don't worry, it's fine.
I got plenty of sneakers.

Appreciate that, sir. But it's policy.

Give me one second
while I-I grab a form.

Simone?

So this guy's from Chicago, right?

But he just said he had
"plenty of sneakers."

- Yeah, so?
- I'm born and raised there.

Chicagoans don't say "sneakers,"
we say "gym shoes."

North Side, West Side, South Side,

everybody calls them
"gym shoes." That's a fact.

So what you thinking?

A true paranoid wouldn't just
stop at having a body double.

What if Quincannon
changed his own appearance?

- Into Andrew?
- Well, if he had

plastic surgery,
there'd be subtle scars.

I could get close enough,

but I'd have to go full Simone.

Charm away.

Got it.

Ooh, you got a pretty smile.
