All language subtitles for TOKYO VICE S2E09-ENGCP

(Japanese) Excuse me.

Tozawa owns this guy.

Blackmailing him
with the Yoshino videotape.

Now, he's got the FBI in his pocket.

If I didn't hate that fucker so much,
I would be impressed.

To publish anything, we need evidence

Tozawa actually got
this illegal transplant.

And name who helped him do it.

It's Lynn Oberfeld.

- She's on the take.
- We have no proof.

Jake's circumstantial evidence
is strong.

Circumstantial doesn't get printed
by the Meicho.

Think about it. Do we really believe
one FBI agent could make this happen?

What if the FBI itself
made it happen?

Hawaii.

The Miura-gumi bust.

Tozawa knows he is dying.

He cannot get Shigematsu
to take him off the no-fly list...

So, he contacts the FBI.

Yes. Offers them information
on yakuza activity in America...

In exchange for keeping him alive.

There was another FBI yakuza bust
in San Francisco three months ago.

It's still just a theory.

Not if we can get someone
at the US Embassy to confirm it.

What about your friend Jason?

See what he knows.

I will go to Tozawa's doctor

where Jake got those medical records.

Find out if he had any contact
with US authorities.

Or hospitals in Minneapolis.

This is a very inflammatory claim.

Whatever you learn,
report it only to me.

Hey. I just wanna thank you guys.

- For what?
- For having my back.

For chasing this even though
you know how dangerous it is.

I'm only doing it for the byline.

Yeah. Me too.

Give me your phone.

It's okay, I'm using a burner.

Jake, if the police can tap
Tozawa's burners

he can tap yours.

Why are you not answering?

Tozawa's wife, she knows. Call me.

You ever heard
of anything like this before?

There was talk, years ago.

About a yakuza out of Yokohama
being an FBI informant.

Harada Isamu.

Harada Isamu.
Yeah, I've heard of him before.

Someone claimed to have seen
his signature

on an official FBI agreement.

Okay. I'm gonna take this information
back to my colleagues.

- I'll let you know what we find out.
- Jake!

I have a favor to ask.
Confidentially.

Of course. What is it?

We are working on a story
about the yakuza

who got a liver transplant in the US.

There is belief among my colleagues

he did so with help from the FBI.

- Seriously?
- Yes.

In exchange, we think he provided

information about yakuza activity
in the States.

A colleague just told me
that in another such case

there was a signed contract
between the FBI

and the Japanese criminal informant.

You know I wouldn't have access
to that information.

You have connections
in Washington DC.

Is that what I am to you? A source?

You know what you mean to me.

If we do not prove this story

my friend Jake could be killed.

Please.

What's the guy's name?

Shinzo Tozawa.

You know him?

I've heard of him.

I have to go.

Unless there's something else
I can do for you?

Nuclear codes, maybe?

I'll see what I can do.
No guarantees.

Okay.

You could have killed that man.

That was never the plan.

I lost my shit.

So, there was a plan.

But you didn't tell me
because you knew I wouldn't help.

He's the reason
Polina ended up on Tozawa's boat.

- Even so...
- You're right.

I'm sorry.

Samantha.

You always run toward chaos.

Maybe you feel most alive

when everything around you
is falling apart.

But I don't.

The club you made
was a beautiful thing.

Thank you.

But we are done.

You and I.

- Erika...
- I'm finished with the mizu shobai.

But also, I'm done with
the world of secrets and lies.

And I don't think you know
how to live in a different one.

Take care of yourself.

You too.

Hey, it's Jason.

I spoke to a friend in DC.
Had him poke around about your guy.

And?

Shinzo Tozawa's been
a criminal informant for the FBI

for the last year-and-a-half.

His information has led to
a few major busts in the US.

Thank you.

Will your source go on record?

No.

But there is a contract.
Signed by both parties.

His colleague in the States
has seen it.

It's a risky move on Tozawa's part.

If it came out in his world that
he was dealing with the FBI

who knows what kind of reprisal
there would be.

Yeah, but better face the risks
than die of liver disease.

It's his only move.

Can you get a copy?

Of a top-secret United States
government agreement?

We need on-the-record confirmation.

Get an appointment
with the FBI Legat there.

I'll do it. I'll get the quote.

You can't be seen pursuing this.

Yeah. Maruyama-san,
it's the American Embassy.

What's Tozawa gonna do,
shoot me on my home soil?

(Japanese) You!

Come in.

Hey, I'm sorry for
the unannounced visit.

It's fine. But I just have a minute.
What's on your mind?

I just wanted to thank you properly.

You know I'm not
supposed to accept gifts.

Oh, well...
I won't tell anyone if you don't.

There was just one little thing
I wanted to follow up on.

This guy you said
got the transplant...

Stanley Tanaka?

- Yes, Spencer Tanaka.
- Spencer Tanaka.

And he's a high school
English teacher, yeah?

- Yeah, that's right.
- Got it.

I guess my question is

how does a high school
English teacher afford

a quarter-of-a-million-dollar watch?

Because that's what Spencer Tanaka

gave Dr. Walker as a thank you gift
for his new liver.

I know Shinzo Tozawa
is an informant for the FBI.

I've seen a copy of the agreement
between the Bureau and Tozawa.

My source gave me a copy.

- Bullshit.
- It's not the only one.

Does Isamu Harada ring a bell?

The Meicho is gonna publish

all of the FBI's
yakuza asset agreements.

I wanted to give you an opportunity
to respond beforehand.

If those names go public

it will compromise a number
of extremely sensitive operations

not to mention
put agents' lives at risk.

Well, I'm a reporter.
The people have a right to know.

You're also a US citizen, which means

by knowingly disrupting
domestic investigations

you could be brought up on charges.

You've heard of
the First Amendment, right?

Didn't they give you one of those

tiny Constitutions
when you took the oath?

You listen to me, you little shit...

You give me an on-background quote
attributed to the FBI

confirming the operation

I won't print any contracts.

Except Tozawa.

He's done.

I want the name of your source.

What is it with you
law enforcement types

not understanding the meaning
of the word confidential?

Give me the name of your source,
you get your confirmation.

That's the deal.

- We got it.
- The FBI confirmed?

Tozawa's an FBI asset.

How did you get that?

I may have bluffed and told her

I had copies of a bunch
of their CI agreements.

I'll get you the finished piece
as soon as I can.

Jake, this puts an even
bigger target on your back.

I'm not sure how safe you'll be
even here at the Meicho.

Don't worry.
I have an idea of where I can go

Imperial Building

What's going on, Meicho-san?

Can we talk, just the two of us?

Excuse me. Are you Samantha?

Yeah?

I'm Misaki.

We have a friend in common. Jake.

Yeah.

Yeah, he's mentioned you.

I have not been able contact him.

It is very important I find him.

Have you tried his apartment?

- He's gotta show up sooner or later.
- I cannot go there.

Or be seen with him.

Because of who I'm seeing.

Shinzo Tozawa.

Jesus.

Please. Can you help me?

Tin-Tin?

(Japanese) Hey.

What the fuck was that?

(Japanese) Fuck!

This place safe?

We'll find out.

Jake! Jake, it's me! Open up!

Jake, come on!

Jake!

We can try the Meicho.

- Can I use your phone?
- No phones.

I have to call my boss
and tell her what's going on.

No phones!

This is the last one.

(Japanese) Yes.

No, you cannot go there.
We were attacked.

It is not safe here either. We...

Okay. Okay!

(Japanese) I'm not running away.

Thanks for letting us come.

Us?

Hey, Sam.

Misaki?

(Japanese) Walk.
