You made a new currency, so just make more.

It's good coffee.

I can see why you like this place.

- I tried calling. - I'm busy.

- You didn't listen to any of my messages?

- I listened long enough to know they were from you.

- [chuckles]

Well, you should have kept going.

An American tech CEO, Bryce Mayfield,

is receiving extortion threats.

I opened the case in LA, but since relocating his business

to Prague, it's gotten worse.

When the threats traced to an IP address in your backyard,

- I knew who to call. - What kind of threats?

- First, it was articles about his crypto exchange startup,

Maybit, noting all the company profits he's made.

Then they turned to sending pictures of his family.

Looks like you have a lot to lose, that sort of thing.

Look, I don't have the experience

internationally that you do.

I need your help.

- I'm in. Not a problem.

The work is the work.

Let's do it.

- Thank you.

You have no idea how good it feels to know

that I can still count on you.

It's really good to see you, Wes.

- Just to make sure we're on the same page,

we're gonna keep this professional, right?

The last time we spoke, you said that we bring out

the worst in each other. I agree.

but I never meant to hurt you.

- [chuckles] - I loved you.

And in a lot of ways,

I always will.

I'm sorry.

- Me too.

What's up?

- It's not just threats now.

It's a kidnapping.

- Everybody listen up. - Grab what you need.

We got an American infant, Jacob Mayfield.

He's been abducted along with his mother,

a Czech citizen named, uh...

- Markéta Martínková.

- So we got three kidnappers and a picture of their car.

- Prague police sent this traffic photo of the vehicle

leaving the area.

- Faces are pretty grainy.

- Any way to get an ID? - Yeah.

Amanda, just work your magic.

Whatever you come up with, send it to Ella.

She's the case agent.

- Actually, Wes, I did some undercover work

on this back in LA.

I don't think I can risk my face

being out front and center.

We spoke on the phone.

- Yes, it's nice to meet you.

Please, this way.

We are looking for physical evidence,

but there is not much.

The kidnappers were wearing gloves.

- Well, we read the statements that you took

from both witnesses, but we'd love to talk

to Mr. Mayfield ourselves.

- Of course, of course.

I hope you have a more pleasant experience than I did.

- Mr. Mayfield, Supervisory Special Agent Wes Mitchell.

This is Special Agent Vo.

- Finally, some actual law enforcement.

You know, the Czech police are pretty much useless.

They did nothing, nada.

That guy is about as helpful as a security guard

who stands by like an idiot while my son is kidnapped.

What was I supposed to do?

- Anything.

How about somebody protect my family?

I understand that everybody is angry,

but being upset is not very helpful.

So, sir, why don't you step outside and wait?

I will talk to you next.

- Get your loved ones taken, see how you react.

- OK, why don't you just back up and tell us

what's been going on?

- Six months ago, I relocated to Prague because my girlfriend

is Czech, and, you know, she wants a familiar place

to raise a family.

So I moved my business, too, because I don't want

to pay taxes in two countries.

Turns out, though, this whole country is corrupt.

- How so?

- I told the police that mobsters

are threatening my family.

Their only response is to come after me.

- You said mobsters were the ones that took your family.

Did you recognize these people?

- I have never seen them before,

but according to Pecha,

Prague has all sorts of organized crime.

It's like the cocaine and heroin gateway to Europe,

and they've got the police in their back pocket.

If the Czech police were helping the mob

shake Mayfield down, then why would they make it harder

for him to get his money?

they're looking into him. [phone ringing]

Maybe there's someone in the Financial Crime Unit

who can help.

- Uh, go ahead. - I should take this.

Hey.

- Any luck ID'ing the kidnappers? - Unfortunately, no.

The car had a ghost plate, so that's kind of a dead end.

I'm calling about something else.

- What's up?

- Could you get me access to your electronic case file

and any investigative notes from when you were undercover?

- Uh, OK.

I'll have to talk to the admin.

My notes are all back in LA.

I can answer any questions you have though.

- Right.

I just prefer to review everything myself

so I don't have to keep bothering you.

Is that a problem?

- No, no problem.

I'll make it happen as soon as I get the chance.

- Great. I appreciate it.

[line beeping]

- We're investigating Maybit for a reason.

The exchange is used to launder money.

- And you think Bryce Mayfield is complicit in that?

- Yes, we have reason to suspect

he's in business with the Nikolic Crime Syndicate.

- Nikolic? - You know them?

- They're one of several Balkan organized crime groups

who are trying to use Prague to expand.

- What's Mayfield's connection? - We flagged this.

- It's a deposit into Mayfield's account

on his crypto exchange,

the equivalent of over $5 million.

- And who exactly is on the other end of that transaction?

- Hard to say.

The anonymous nature of cryptocurrency

makes it difficult to trace, but we monitor a number

of traditional Nikolic banks,

and a withdrawal of the same amount

was made by this man, Ivica Cerny.

He was arrested three years ago on assault charges

alongside one of Mr. Mayfield's current employees,

- Pecha Jansky. - The bodyguard.

- He used to work security for the Nikolic clan.

- So Pecha knew the kidnappers.

- And he didn't tell any of this to the police.

Hey, where is he, the bodyguard, Pecha?

- He said you told him to leave.

Did you let him go?

But listen to this.

As far as they know, Ella was never undercover on this case.

In fact, there's no record of her working

undercover in five years.

What the hell is she hiding?

- You OK? - Yeah.

- Any luck chasing down Pecha's last words,

maly andel?

- Yeah, Bednar was able to translate.

It turns out it's a phrase in Czech.

It means "little angel."

- Like a pet name or a girlfriend or...

- Could be. - But he was so insistent.

It was like he had to tell me, like a warning.

- I can't believe Cerny got away from me.

- I'm sorry. - It's OK.

We'll get him.

- Yeah, that's him.

- So why does a smart, successful guy like you

go into business with a loan shark

from organized crime?

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

- Hmm.

Well, we looked into Pecha's phone,

and two days ago, he got a message from Cerny.

It says, "KK isn't happy."

"Get your boss to pay back the money

you borrowed, or we're all dead."

Borrowed?

So this wasn't some random shakedown.

You took a loan from the mob,

and now they're coming to collect.

- Jacob and Markéta are in danger,

and you're questioning me?

You should be out there finding them.

- Yeah, we're working on it, Mr. Mayfield,

but it would be helpful if you answered my questions.

- OK.

I'm gonna level with you.

- Good idea.

- About six months ago, crypto took a dip

across the board. Like, bah.

I mean, everyone was hurting, so I had a cash flow problem

and needed a quick 5 mil infusion.

Pecha said he knew these guys that could help,

these dudes he used to work with.

- Why didn't you go to a bank?

- Banks are slow and regulated.

Besides, if people knew that I was hurting,

they'd get twitchy and pull their money out.

Maybit goes bankrupt.

- Yeah, good thing it wasn't regulated.

- [sighs]

I know I screwed up.

I never should have been in business with those guys.

With the Nikolic interest rates,

5 million became 50 million.

I can't swing that in any currency.

- Then help us find Ivica Cerny.

- What do you know about him? - Nothing.

I never dealt with the Nikolic people directly.

- Then who is KK? - I don't know.

I'm sorry.

Pecha said they were his friends,

but they must have blamed him when I couldn't pay.

I...

I know this sounds crazy, but I literally didn't know

who I was dealing with.

- Hey, how'd it go with Mayfield?

- Well, borrowing money from organized crime is dumb,

but it is not in itself illegal.

- So you believe him?

- Well, he is shady, but I don't think

he's behind the homicide or the kidnapping.

- All right.

Where are we at with our kidnappers?

- We've got Cerny's name and picture out,

but so far, nothing's popped.

His last known address was a house in Serbia

that no longer exists.

- So basically, we're nowhere.

- Maly Andel was a dead end too.

We're spinning our wheels.

- We only have until the morning

before the kidnapper's deadline.

- What does that leave us with?

A Nikolic contact known only as KK.

- Actually, I may have found something on that.

So I did a little digging, and, three years ago,

Ivica Cerny worked security

for a financier suspected of being a money man

for the Nikolic family. His name is Karel Kucera.

- Initials are KK. - Mm-hmm.

- We finally got something. - Great work, Elle.

Hey, Amanda, did you catch all that?

We need a location for a Karel Kucera.

- Already double checking it.

He's older, so he doesn't match the description

of the kidnappers,

but if he's involved, maybe he can lead us to them.

Word is you weren't happy about not being paid back.

a kidnapping and a homicide.

That kind of thing is not my style.

- OK, uh, look,

Wes is a better agent than I am.

I know this.

As soon as the case became a kidnapping on foreign soil,

I knew I was in way over my head.

So rather than admit it, I made up

the undercover thing as an easy excuse to step back.

I was terrified I would make another mistake

- Give me some cover. - FBI!

- Go.

- FBI, don't move! - You guys good?

- Yeah. - You good?

- Yeah. - [coughing]

- Hands up now!

Hands where I can see them.

Don't move.

- You sure you're OK? - [coughs]

Yeah.

- Hands down. - Spread them out, now!

- You OK? - Yeah.

Little angel indeed.

- Gotcha.

- You found the kidnappers.

- We did.

- Nice.

- Were you ever gonna tell me?

- At least let me explain.

It was my stepfather who was an investor

in the Mayfield's company.

- It was his money, not mine. - That doesn't matter.

You took the job because you have a financial stake in it.

You have a conflict of interest.

- I had one conversation with Mayfield.

I told him that I would make the case a priority.

It's not like the FBI wasn't gonna help him anyway.

- You can spin this however you want.

You used me as cover, and you know it.

- You're acting like we've never broken the rules before.

We got the bad guys in cuffs.

What difference does it make how we got here?

- Because you lied to me. - That's the difference.

- I was trying to protect you.

- No, you only care about yourself.

You don't care about me, and you don't care about my team.

- OK, I know you're angry. - Yes!

You're only here because you got caught.

You're trying to use me to protect your job.

- I'm done covering for you. - What?

No, you can't report this.

- I can, and I will.

- Any decent defense lawyer will have a field day

with a financially compromised FBI agent and her ex-boyfriend.

If you turn me in,

this investigation is tainted.

The enforcers walk.

The moneyman walks.

Think about that before you do something stupid.

- Hey. - Hey.

Everything OK? I got your message.

- Yeah. - Sorry to bug you at home.

- It's OK.

I'm still at the office, actually.

- Really? - Don't you ever go home?

- Lily's with her dad this weekend.

What's going on?

Did you talk to Ella? How did that go?

- Not great.

I need an outside eye on something because

I'm not seeing straight.

We have an obligation to disclose a conflict

like this, right?

I'm... I'm not just overreacting because it's Ella.

- This is bad. - Yeah, it's bad.

- But if this all comes out, no one's gonna be happier

than the Nikolic Syndicate.

They're gonna get their guys a plea.

Kucera's gonna walk.

- So what are your options?

- I don't have any.

If I say nothing, I'm not only risking my career,

but I'm making you complicit.

I never meant to drag you into this.

- Hold on.

You're not dragging me into anything.

I'm the one who told you.

We're in this together.

- OK, yeah.

- So what should I do? - [sighs]

- Honestly, I'd eat it.

Ella lining her family's pockets sucks,

but I can live with it.

I want the people who kidnapped a kid

to do time

and for the organized crime entity

carrying out executions in our backyard

to feel the full weight of the FBI.

That's my priority.

She can have the money.

We'll take the justice.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Who said you people could leave?

I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

Your team has been very helpful.

You have made more progress against the Nikolic operation

than we have in years.

You're welcome in Prague anytime.

- Hopefully under better circumstances.

- Regarding Mr. Mayfield,

I haven't seen any further evidence

of criminal activity on his account,

so I trust you found the same?

- Yeah, all good on our end.

- Yeah, with any luck, he can avoid bankruptcy

and make his investors whole eventually.

- Then that part of our collaboration is over as well.

Until next time.

- Well, now I call that a successful mission.

Right, Wes?

- I agree, Agent Driscoll.

- Well, I got an early flight.

It's been a pleasure working with you all.

- OK, I think that's enough, Wes.

Everybody in here is drunk.

This idiot hasn't shut up for three hours.

- You got a problem? - That's a good idea.

You want to start something?

OK. Sorry, Szombor.

Thanks for the call.

She just walks away like nothing happened.

Thanks.

Once, we had a barbecue, and all these people came over,

and I was talking to a woman, and Ella got jealous,

and she didn't say anything, and then she just...

she left without telling anybody.

I didn't hear from her for three days.

- That didn't strike you as a red flag?

- Well, they were all red flags,

but I loved it because

I'm just as messed up.

And then my... my dad, my...

my adoptive dad, Eddie, he says,

just 'cause you grew up in chaos

doesn't oblige you to live in chaos.

- That's easier said than done. - Exactly.

Where are my keys?

Thank you.

You're not gonna come in, are you?

Because HR is gonna bust in the windows like ninjas.

- [chuckles] - Get some rest, Wes.

- Amanda?

You're a good person.

You care about people.

- I don't know if that's such a good thing.

- What are you talking about?

Of course, it is.

- I married a guy because I could see how much

he needed someone to take care of him.

I made a grown man a sack lunch every day

for work while I was eight months pregnant.

- That's messed up. - That's way more messed up.

- [chuckles, sighs]

We really know how to pick 'em, don't we?

- Yeah, it's embarrassing.

We're... we're smart. We're capable.

We read people for a living, - I know.
