All language subtitles for Person of Interest S01E07

You are being watched.

The government has a secret system.

A machine that spies on you
every hour of every day.

I know because I built it.

I designed the machine to detect
acts of terror, but it sees everything.

Violent crimes involving
ordinary people.

People like you.

Crimes the government
considered irrelevant.

They wouldn't act,
so I decided I would.

But I needed a partner.

Someone with the skills to intervene.

Hunted by the authorities,
we work in secret.

You will never find us.

But victim or perpetrator,
if your number's up, we'll find you.

The call came in.
We have a location on the target.

- Get a team and I'll meet you there.
- We can handle this.

No. I want to be there in person.
I want to kill him myself.

Wait, can you rewind that for me?

Thought I was done mopping up bodega
shootings when I got on Homicide.

This is like a stick-up job to you?
Then you need to go back to a precinct.

There was no money taken.
Double tap, close range.

This was an execution.

- We got any ID on the vic?
- Not yet.

But you haven't seen the best part.
Rewind it again.

We got ourselves a witness.

- Any sign of him?
- Put out a BOLO.

Had a team canvass a six-block
radius. Guy vanished.

I'd make myself scarce too.

This ain't no neighborhood
you wanna be called a snitch.

- Hmm, no it's not.
- Detective.

I've got reporters out there
begging me for scraps.

- What do I tell them?
- Send them to the Task Force guy.

- Let him deal with them.
- Yes, ma'am.

Detective Szymanski, Organized Crime,
this is Detective Fusco.

- Nice to meet you.
- Was this a mob hit?

Victim's a former La Cosa Nostra
lieutenant named Benny D'Agostino.

He was out of the game
for a couple years...

...then popped up again on our radar
about six months ago.

Brighton Beach is Russian territory.

- What's the LCN doing here?
- There's a war going on.

Half a dozen VIPs in the Russian mob
were taken out last month.

Word is Benny's boss ordered the hits.
This was retribution.

- So who's his boss?
- We don't know much other than a name.

Elias.

- You heard of him?
- Oh, yeah. We go way back.

One of his guys
took a shot at me last week.

This Elias is a clever bastard.
Nobody knows what he looks like.

What about the witness?
Have any luck finding him?

No, but have another look
at the surveillance footage.

The victim said something
to the witness.

If it's a dying declaration and he named
the killers, it'd be admissible.

Yeah, but we've got a problem.

The Russian owner
of this fine establishment...

...was on a conveniently timed
smoke break when all this went down.

He's not giving us anything.

You think he told the shooters
we found a witness?

If he did, the Russians will knock down
every door till they find him.

My guys are working the block.
Something will pop.

It better.

We gotta get to this witness
before the Russians do.

I received his number last night.

His name's Charlie Burton.

The guy's worried about something,
but I'm not seeing a threat yet.

What's his story, Finch?

He's a high school history teacher
working in the Brighton Beach district.

Lives alone, never married.
Not much to go on.

Oh, maybe a student is after him,
you know?

Teaching can be
a dangerous profession.

Yes, I imagine espionage
was a much safer choice, Mr. Reese.

Hello, Lionel.

I'm not sure how you usually
do what you do...

...but I'm looking for a guy
and could use some help.

He's a witness.
Saw a Russian mob hit go down.

Caucasian, 5'10," bald. Probably not
the most popular guy in class...

...if you know what I mean.
We need to find him.

I think I already did.

Why am I not surprised?

Listen, whoever did this hit,
they're gonna come looking for him.

They've already found him.

Mr. Reese, we might wanna
leave this one to the authorities.

No time. I'm heading in.

Cover the exits.

Rest of you, come with me.

Get out of my apartment.

Mr. Burton, you're in danger.

The men from the bodega are here.

How do you know?
Did they send you?

You have a Russian hit team
closing in...

...which leaves us
approximately 5 seconds...

...before you need to decide.
- How do I know you're not one?

Because I'm standing in front of you
and you're still alive.

Doesn't seem like I've got a choice.

- Where did this piece of garbage go?
- I'll double-back.

Mr. Reese, can you get out?
Do you need me to call in a distraction?

Let me get back to you on that.
Come on.

Let's get moving. Now.

Fastest way out of this neighborhood
is through those buildings.

Are you joking? Even the Russians
don't go into the Double B's.

A Bulgarian drug dealer
runs the place.

Finch, I'm gonna need
another route out of here.

We're on our own.

- I need your cell phone.
- I don't believe in them.

Mr. Reese, can you hear me?

Hey, this isn't mine.

Mine either. Get in.

May I have your name before
we commit grand theft auto?

First we need to get you to the police so
you can tell them what you saw.

The Russian mob is after me.
They've got people on the inside.

- If I testify, I'm dead.
- I know a detective we can trust.

But we need to get across the river
to Manhattan. Get down!

- We need to keep moving.
- That's gonna be a problem.

You say the Russians don't go in?

- Well that's where we're going.
- Agh! Unh.

See what I mean?

This is crazy.

Agh.

- I still don't even know who you are.
- I help people, and you need help.

Well, the bullet
went straight through clean.

No bone damage.

But we need to get you cleaned up
before it gets infected.

Well, you see a pharmacy nearby?

The men you saw last night
at the bodega...

...what can you tell me about them?

What difference does it make?

I guess I like to know a little bit about
the guys who are shooting at me.

I worked through dinner
and I was grading papers...

...and I stopped at the store
on my way home.

I couldn't decide between
minestrone and split pea.

And then I saw the guys with guns
and I hid.

- Did you see their faces?
- They had masks.

But one of them lifted his
like he wanted that guy to see his face.

But that guy they killed...

...he said he had a message
for someone named Elias.

He wanted me to give it to him,
but I don't know an Elias.

I tried to tell him that.

Mr. Burton, what was the message?

I didn't understand it.
Something about Vinnie.

Vinnie was gonna
finish the job for him.

Why didn't you call the police?

You don't understand
this neighborhood, do you?

Going to the cops
is like Russian roulette.

You don't know which side they're on.

One of my students' parents
filed a police report last year.

Then he got into an accident.

Still eating through a straw.

I'll get you to a police officer
you can trust.

I'm gonna keep my mouth shut
and hope it all blows over.

I don't know, these guys
looked pretty upset.

If I testify,
I never get to come back here.

And I've worked too hard.

This is my home.

My students, for starters.
I can't leave them. They need me.

Well, you won't do those kids any good
if you're dead, Mr. Burton.

Charlie, please.
Mr. Burton is for my students.

Do you want to die, Charlie?

Because this isn't a history lesson.

Those bullets are real.

My name is John.

Thank you for saving my ass, John.

Thanks for coming down, Patti.

We're all very sorry for your loss.

You're not sorry.
You hated my husband.

No, I only hated
what he did for a living.

Ma'am, do you know why Benny
was in Brighton Beach last night?

Was he, uh, conducting business?

Mrs. D'Agostino...

...I know that anger
you're feeling right now.

What it's like to lose
someone you love.

Help us find the men
who did this to your husband.

It doesn't matter if you find them.

Elias will. And he'll kill each and every
single one of those Russian bastards.

Elias started a war that can't be won.

Now, a lot of innocent people are gonna
die if this continues. Do you want that?

If that's what it takes.

Where is he, Patti? Where is Elias?

I never met him.

And his crew, they don't socialize.

That's why you'll never find him.

I'm a little confused. Why does Elias
want Brighton Beach so bad?

You're not seeing it.
Brighton Beach is just the beginning.

Elias has bigger plans.

He'll reunite the five families
and take out the Russian trash.

And then when he's finished,
you people will be answering to him.

Hey. Five or six heavily armed men
were chasing a guy...

...matching the description
of our witness, Charlie Burton.

Found out he had groceries delivered
twice a month from the bodega.

And he wasn't dodging bullets
by himself.

- Who was he with?
- Tall guy in a suit.

Definitely not with the Russians.

He shot one of them in the knee
before they got away.

What? You know him?

It's just someone
I've been tracking for a while.

Best I've got, he's former military.
A pain in the ass.

Either one of them get hit?
Seems to be a lot of shots fired.

They got off okay. I got a Russian
in the hospital who isn't talking.

We got an ATM camera
across the street.

- Might help shed some light on things.
- It'll take two weeks to get the footage.

Thankfully, a bystander
got some footage of her own.

Meet Peter Yogorov.

As in Ivan Yogorov,
the Russian boss?

Peter's his son.

Yo, officer. Call over to the 8th.

Tell them to pull any file we have
pertaining to Ivan Yogorov.

Ivan Yogorov. You got it.

Where are you, Mr. Reese?

Who are these guys?

And what's this cop doing with them?

N.Y.P.D?

Daddy, come home.

Detective Fusco.

Hello, detective. I need to talk to you
about our mutual friend.

Who's this?
And who the hell's our mutual friend?

I seem to recall you were going to take
him to Oyster Bay once upon a time.

- So you're his guy?
- No, detective. I think that's your role.

I've lost contact with him.

Do you have any idea
where he and the witness are now?

Somewhere in Brighton Beach.
Russians opened fire in broad daylight.

They're going nowhere
with this heat on them.

Unfortunately, the Russian Mafia
may not be our only problem.

I need you to run
a license plate for me.

Yeah, sure, pal, I'll help you out...

If you tell me what the hell
it is I'm doing.

It relates to your case.
That's all you need to know.

TNF 0818.

If I hear anything,
how do I get in touch?

You don't. I'll find you, detective.

I winged the guy.
Let's get in there and finish him off.

Laszlo, wait up.
We need to call Papa, regroup.

You wanna wait around out here, fine.
I'm going in.

You wanna go at it
with a bunch of Bulgarian tweakers?

We made a deal. They stay
out of our territory, we stay out of theirs.

Cover every exit.

No way those two get out
without going past us first.

I need you to stay awake, Charlie.

Don't want you to go into shock.

So how'd you wind up doing
whatever it is you do?

It's complicated.

What about you?

Did you always wanna be a teacher?

No, it was sort of a career shift.

I came to like the kids a lot.

A lot of their parents are affiliated
with the Russian mob.

I try to give them other options.

They're lucky to have you.

Only the ones that I get out of the life
and into college.

What about the kids
who don't make it?

They're probably the ones
shooting at us.

Don't go anywhere.

What? Wait, where are you going?

To find us a pharmacy.

You should be careful about
your cholesterol intake, detective.

What, are we dating?

Do you have the information
I asked you for?

You're the boss, huh?

The voice on the other end
of the phone?

The plate's registered to a shell corp
in midtown. It's a dead end.

Hey, let me ask you something.
Who are you trying to track down?

The Russians aren't the only criminal
operation looking for Charlie Burton.

- You saying this plate belongs to Elias?
- Maybe.

You mentioned in your report
that the victim spoke to Mr. Burton...

...before he expired.
- What...? How did you read my report?

Mr. Fusco, what matters is that whatever
message Benny was passing along...

...it means a great deal to Elias.

So the Russians want him dead because
he witnessed them take out Benny...

...and Elias wants him dead because
he thinks he has sensitive information.

- Not his lucky day, is it?
- Indeed.

That car, I need you to report it stolen.

Then e-mail the report number
to that address.

- Hey, you heard from our mutual friend?
- Are you worried about him, detective?

- Let's go with curious.
- No.

No word from him.

- Made almost twice what I did yesterday.
- Still ain't made more than me.

Hello, fellas.
Can I borrow some of your drugs?

Oh, no. Easy, fella.
I'm not looking for a fight.

Looks like you found one anyway.

- Don't do it. I'm telling you, now...
- Aah!

Thank you.

If Ivan's sons are involved in this,
it could be...

...the man himself was at the bodega.

Avenge his brother's death in person.

Elias' crew took him out last week...

...along with half a dozen
other Russian hitters.

I thought the Russians
were untouchable in Brighton.

They were. No one knows
where Elias gets his information.

He's always one step ahead
of all of them, and us.

What I still don't get is why Elias...

...is trying to make a move
for Brighton Beach.

A woman named Marlene Elias
was murdered in 1973.

She had an illegitimate son
with Don Moretti.

I think Elias is the Don's kid.

Last place Moretti ran before he got
locked up was Brighton Beach.

So the Don's bastard son
came back to clean up?

Claim his birthright?

What is that?

Cocaine.

I guess there's a first time
for everything.

- Is that glue?
- Yeah.

Nothing like over-the-counter polymer
to close a wound in a pinch.

You learn all this in hero training?

Something like that.

Thank you.

Sure.

No, really.

Thank you.

If it wasn't for you,
I'd be dead right now.

You ever use one of these?

Don't you think it would be better
if you kept it?

It's just in case.

No. Last time I touched a gun,
I shot cans with one of my foster dads.

Accidentally killed a bird.
Not my favorite childhood memory.

It's simple. Look.

The safety's there.
Just load the magazine like this.

Rack it.

Simple.

Do you really think
we'll get out of here?

We have a hell of a lot better chance
than we did 20 minutes ago.

Here they come.

You after those boys
running around our building?

- That's right.
- He took something from my people.

We don't give you any problems,
you take him out?

I can make that deal.

Give one to the other guy.
We'll help you out a whole lot quicker.

Someone told me they were hiding out
on the 4th floor.

And one of them's already bleeding.

Put this on.

If I can find a line
that's still operating...

...we can make a call.

Wow, I thought I was the only one
who still had a hard line.

I was hoping there was someone
in this building...

...as old-fashioned as you, Charlie.

I'm sorry I got you into this mess.

It's okay. It's my job.

It's a dangerous career choice.

That's the second time today
I've heard that.

It's funny. You remind me of him.

Finch.

- I was just talking about you.
- Where are you, Mr. Reese?

Double B housing project.
Fourth floor. North tower.

Find me a way out of here, Finch.
One that no one else will use.

City Planning Office
should have old blueprints.

How's Mr. Burton faring?

He's wounded, but stubborn.
He'll pull through.

The Russians aren't the only ones
after him.

I think Elias is looking for him too.

Two service entrances.

The one closest to you
is in the northeast corridor.

- Can you make it there?
- We've got no choice.

Tell Fusco to meet us
at Pier 11, at 7 a.m.

We'll be on the East River ferry.

Be careful, Mr. Reese.

Come on.

Go. Service stairs should be
around the next corridor.

Keep your eyes open.
They could be anywhere.

I think they went this way.

- What now?
- Wait here.

Who's there?

Check down that way.

- Mr. Burton?
- Will.

What are you doing?

Hey, Will.

Came in looking for a shortcut
and we just, uh...

This is my friend, by the way.
We just got lost.

Check the south side.

Come on. My dad's not home.
You can hide in here.

Vehicle recovery services.

Yeah, this is Detective Fusco,
shield number 7645.

I'm trying to turn on the locator
in a stolen vehicle.

Uh, report number is Lima 3-7-7.

Thank you, detective.
How can I help you?

Yeah, could you turn on the car's
GPS locator. And the microphone.

Of course. Bear with me, please.

I thought you and your dad
moved out.

Not yet. He said we will
as soon as he gets a job.

Yeah, times are tough right now.
I'm sure he'll get one soon.

Just don't move out
of my school district, okay?

- You do your homework?
- Yup, all of it.

What did you think?

Edmond's cool. A survivor, you know?

Even though he got his revenge,
bad stuff still stuck with him.

Yeah, you're a smart kid, Will.
You just need to show up to class more.

- I'm trying.
- That's all any of us can do, right?

- Zombies?
- They're taking over the universe.

Yeah, can't have that.

Who are you?

You're that cop.

Word is the Russians
are inside the Double Bs.

We better get to them first.

Is that you, Elias?

Seen these guys?
We're looking for them.

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

Open up or we're coming in.

- What do you want?
- Hey, little man.

- You all alone in there?
- What's it look like?

Why don't you let me in
so I can make sure?

My papa taught me better
than to let strangers inside our place.

Especially punks.

Is that right?

That's right. He also said that Vory...

...are supposed to show respect
to one another.

Your papa's a smart man.

You be good, kid.

- Thanks, Will.
- It's all good, Mr. Burton.

You're the best teacher I've got.

Charlie...

...can you make it
to the service stairs?

I'll try. The painkiller sort of wore off.

Why don't you just use
the old entrance?

They closed it down a few years ago.
The stairs got all rotted.

- Where is it?
- It's down the hall.

It's back the way that you came.

Thanks.

Come on.

- I owe you one.
- I'll see you tomorrow, Mr. Burton.

Yeah. Yeah, we'll see you tomorrow.

- You. Did you guys get that hallway?
- Let's go.

Open up, we're coming in.

Hello?

Anyone home?

Can't hide forever.

Wherever you are, we're gonna find
you. And then we're gonna end you.

Come on, let's keep moving.

Looks like you got left behind.

How can I help the New York Police
Department tonight?

Your son Peter is wanted for questioning
in the murder of Benny D'Agostino.

- Know where we might find him?
- Who is this Benny?

Come on, Ivan.

We heard Benny was the triggerman
in your brother's murder.

And we know the bodega run
was payback.

You seem to know a lot for someone
who is here to ask me questions.

Mr. Yogorov,
we don't want any more bloodshed.

My Peter was here
working all day long.

He's at a storage getting more wine
for an event tonight.

With all due respect, sir...

...you may not be the best person
to give your son an alibi.

If you are here to accuse
my Peter of something...

...I suggest you come back
with a warrant.

If you can get one.

There are no winners in this war, lvan.

Only dead soldiers.

Are you ready to lose your sons too?

If I knew to what you were referring,
I would say...

...that this so-called war
was started by this coward, Elias...

...not me. He's the one
who comes to my neighborhood...

...stealing from me...

...killing my people.
Not the other way around.

Now, will you excuse me?
I have an event to host.

Please.

- Mind if I borrow this for a moment?
- Screw you.

It's a bad move to insult
your hostage taker, Laszlo.

Keep your mouth shut
or I'll shut it permanently. Let's go.

Finch, it's me.

Get word to Carter that her bodega
shooters are inside the Double Bs.

Of course.
And I'll make sure Detective Fusco...

...meets you and the witness
at the ferry.

You first.

- Where we going now?
- Across the river.

Come on, Laszlo, let's move.

Just got a text.

He's heading to Pier 11.

Let's get over there
to intercept him now.

Nice collar, detective.

You, too, Carter.
Ever find out who called it in?

I have an idea.

Yeah, Fusco.

I was starting to believe
that we could trust you, detective.

- I'm disappointed.
- What you talking about?

Elias' men are on their way
to meet our friends at the ferry.

- How'd they find out?
- I was going to ask you.

- You blaming me for this?
- Then who told them?

Listen, there's no way I would have...

Detective, are you there?

When we get you across the river,
I'm gonna hand you off to my detective.

You can trust him.

Charlie, I need you to testify.

One thing I know for sure.

After everything we went through
last night...

...I don't want to see these cretins
running around my town ever again.

- Thanks.
- Mm-hm.

- Ah, you ready to talk?
- You ready to let me go?

Peter, we've got you on camera.

We've got witnesses that say
you and your brother...

...were shooting up
the streets in Brighton Beach.

No idea what you're talking about.

It's a beautiful morning.

I have to thank you, John.

Tell you the truth, I didn't think
I'd see another one.

Elias killed your uncle.

You, your father and your brother
went to the bodega for revenge.

You didn't know
what Elias looked like...

...so his lieutenant, Benny D'Agostino,
was the next best thing.

Now you're trying to rub out the witness,
the guy who saw your father's face.

We heard from a source that Elias was
supposed to be at the bodega that night.

- He was meeting Benny?
- Yeah. But when we showed up...

...Benny was all we saw.

Found out what really went down
after the owner called us.

Said there was another guy.

Hey, what are you?

Corrupt P. D? Gun for hire?

What kind of guy takes money to
protect a scumbag like your boss here?

You think he's gonna testify?

After everything he's done?

He's tearing this town apart.

What are you talking about?

You don't know who he is, do you?

What he's capable of.

You really don't get it, do you?

You honestly think we'd go
to all this trouble for a witness?

You're in the middle of a situation
that you don't even understand.

Don't make me shoot you, John.

Drop your weapon
and kick it to me, please.

I thought you didn't like guns.

You know, sometimes you have to
do things you don't like.

Like teaching history
to the children of your enemies?

Three years I watched them.

Cleaning up after the children
of those pigs.

It's a good amount of time to learn...

...what makes your enemies tick,
what makes them weak.

You know all the secrets you
and your family tried to hide?

I learned all about
from your own flesh and blood.

Your children hate you
almost as much as I do.

Tie yourself to the railing, John.
Nice and tight.

I know how capable you are
of getting out of difficult situations.

On your knees, please.

You were meeting Benny at the bodega
that day, weren't you?

The shooters were looking for you.

The benefits of no one knowing
who you are or what you look like.

That's gone now, I suppose.

It's time to evolve.
I'm ready for the next step.

Go ahead. I'd rather die
than see you running my city.

You know
what Benny said before he died?

He said, "Veni, vidi, vici."
I came. I saw. I won.

He said your almighty Bratva
was already crumbling.

He said we had already won.
This is for Benny.

Elias, if you kill him...

I'm not gonna kill him.

Just gonna send a message.

You tell your papa, Laszlo, if he gets
out of town tonight, I'll let him live.

Brighton Beach belongs to me now.

I thought about killing you, John.

But I realized that
that would seem ungrateful.

Besides, how do you take the life
of someone so talented?

I could really use a guy like you
in my organization.

I wish you luck, John. If you stay
out of my way, I'll stay out of yours.

What if I don't?

Then we'll meet again under
less pleasant circumstances.

- You believe me now?
- I'm sorry, detective.

Nice to see you, Lionel.
Your suspect is tied to the railing.

Tell him, "you're welcome."

Couldn't have known about Charlie.

The Machine found a man
who was targeted for death.

We just didn't know
that he was also a killer.

- It's my fault he's out there, Finch.
- It's not yours alone.

We just saved a man
whose only goal in life is revenge.

He spent years studying his enemies
through their own children.

John, we have limited information.

We knew when we began this
that we might make mistakes.

But we have to go now.

We have more people to help,
more numbers.

How many of those numbers will come
up because we saved one man's life?

Boss.

It's done.

No, it's just beginning.
