Original subtitles

- What do the numbers mean? - They're badge numbers.

Fellow agents that I used to work with.

Mike!

Wes!

Who's in charge of this whole operation?

Csonka.

He recruited boys from his youth center.

Take a walk, or I...

Or what?

- Wes. - Do it right now.

- Let's go. - Hold on. He's having a moment.

Why don't you listen to your sidepiece over there?

You can't just big dog it in Europe,

and you won't make it unless you wrap your head around that.

Greg Csonka, you're under arrest.

- I'll be out in six months. - I ain't hard to find.

You'll never see it coming.

Get up, Barany.

Agent Wesley Mitchell is here to see you.

Is this about the trial coming up?

I don't care what it's about. Keep walking.

Are you sure this is the right room?

Sorry.

Hey! What are you doing?

Vilmos.

You can't touch me. I'm a protected witness.

You don't look protected to me.

- Greg. - Hey, buddy.

- How you doing? - Look, I'm sorry.

The FBI were coming after me, and I didn't know what to do.

I won't say anything.

All right? I won't testify.

- You'd do that for me? - Yes, I swear.

I'll... I'll tell them the deal is off.

In Roman times, they sentenced traitors

to be killed by wild animals in the arena.

They called it damnatio ad bestias,

the condemnation to the beasts.

It was supposed to be both punishment and entertainment.

Now, obviously, you're not gonna have an audience here.

But this is still gonna be fun.

Okay, Agent Booth, tell us why

you deserve to be promoted to GS-14.

Just check my file.

Been with the bureau 13 years, dozens of cases closed.

Speaks for itself.

You know, we have checked your file.

You have to speak for yourself.

I... I don't know.

I just feel like I deserve it.

But I asked you why you deserve it.

Come on, man, I'm trying to help here.

Isn't that the point of this assignment?

You know, my mom always told me

that self-praise is no praise.

That's literally the point of a GS-14 interview.

You have to show them that you're not just a door kicker.

Your grip's messed up.

Okay.

What are we doing here, man?

What, am I selling Florida timeshares?

Should I throw in an extra parking spot?

You know what? It's fine. Stay a case agent.

It's one less thing on my plate.

- That's not... - Wes?

What's up, Cam?

Something happened.

Vilmos Barany was killed last night.

He was murdered at Vaskapu Prison

at some point in the night.

Autopsy report hasn't come in,

but word is Barany was beaten to death.

Three Romani prisoners

have taken responsibility for the murder.

They claim to have had beef with Barany

over a gambling debt.

This is the dirtbag that killed your partner, right?

Well, Barany pulled the trigger,

but he was taking orders from Greg Csonka.

Csonka organized and funded the robbery tourism jobs

Barany took part in.

After we burned the operation down, Barany flipped.

He was all set to testify in the trial against Csonka.

Until he got turned into a piñata.

Look, Csonka probably set this up.

Barany was a threat to him.

So he paid the Romanis to get rid of that threat.

I guarantee Csonka did this himself.

He wanted to look Barany in the eyes when they went dark.

Yeah, well, either way, he's still got people working

for him on the outside.

I mean, at the very least, a bag man moving money for him.

Are the HNP running this investigation?

Actually, the prison's handling it themselves.

They've got jurisdiction,

and they're keeping it in-house,

which is keeping us locked out.

I'll try to get access, see if I can

get a sit down with Csonka.

The real question is, how does this affect the trial?

We gotta talk to the public prosecutor.

What was her name again?

Alina Kollar. She just arrived.

Buzz her in.

Imagine trying to assemble a plane in mid-air,

in a blizzard, blindfolded.

That's basically where we are right now.

Well, as long as you're feeling confident about it.

I'm not done yet.

The judge denied my motion for a continuance,

and now I have to restructure my entire case

the day before trial starts.

Can we still get a conviction here or not?

I think so.

You would need to testify, though, Agent Mitchell.

You'll need to lay out a comprehensive fact pattern,

the full picture of Csonka's crimes.

Good news is, there are no juries

in Hungarian criminal trials.

So we only need to convince one person of Csonka's guilt...

the judge.

I'm ready.

- You will be. - Great.

Meet me in five minutes?

Uh, Wes, I don't think this is a good idea.

Why not?

I've testified in dozens of cases.

How many of those cases involve the man

who murdered your partner?

I think you're too close to this.

I should testify or Cam.

You wanna talk about my partner, Mike Brooks?

He had two daughters, April and Emily.

They can't even drive yet. He loved the Dodgers.

- Wes, I... - No, no, no.

You brought it up. I'm gonna finish.

He was a great agent, an even better man.

He was my friend.

I'm gonna testify and bring justice to his name.

I remind you, this is a courtesy.

Any questions pertaining to my client's

current legal proceedings, and I will terminate

- this interview. - Thank you, Mr. Simons.

I got the memo.

Vilmos Barany is dead.

Murdered.

I'm sure you heard about it.

I've heard rumors.

How did he go out?

He was beaten to death.

Yikes.

Timing is pretty convenient for you.

- Careful. - Hey, this isn't a courtroom.

Let her talk.

Were you aware that Barany was being housed

in the same prison as you?

Of course not.

My client's being kept in isolation.

Right, which is why you paid off

three other guys to do it for you.

Move on, Agent Vo.

How'd you get those bruises on your hand?

Doing one-handed push-ups on concrete.

How's Agent Mitchell doing?

Well, he's not locked up in a cell

and facing life in prison, so better than you.

I was surprised to hear he stuck around in Budapest.

Are you still partnered with him?

- Mm-hmm. - Mm.

That's pretty ballsy on your part.

I mean, you do know that, uh,

his partners usually end up dead.

These three inmates confessed to murdering Barany.

Have you ever come in contact with them?

Look, I'm sorry for what happened to Vilmos,

but I didn't have anything to do with it.

He was a good kid.

I mean, apart from him trying to frame me for his crimes.

Hold on.

That's your defense?

Okay, time to wrap this up.

No, a 19-year-old kid from Budapest

orchestrated a series of armed robberies in America.

You really think that's gonna work?

Well, it's the truth.

- Greg, don't say another word. - I mean, this whole time,

I thought you were pretending to be an idiot.

I can't wait to see the look on your face when I walk!

We're done here. Guard!

And I'm gonna walk.

And the truth about Mitchell is gonna come out.

You should watch out for yourself.

Now, you tell him that for me.

It's all gonna come out.

Normally, I'd call it bluster and move on,

but this is Csonka we're talking about.

Well, Wes, is there anything he can use against you?

No, he's just talking trash at the weigh-in.

He's trying to get in our heads.

Well, regarding Barany, I called in a few favors,

and I managed to get the autopsy report.

Amanda?

Check out the contusion pattern.

Mostly on the left-hand side.

He was hit by someone right hand dominant.

And Csonka has significant bruising on his right hand.

I think you were right about him

taking care of Barany himself.

Yeah, it fits his psych profile.

Okay, but how?

How does Csonka even get access to Barany from lockdown?

The prison still hasn't read us in on their investigation,

but we do know five prison guards

were working Barany's cell last night.

So this is my theory.

The Romani prisoners, they had nothing to do with it, right?

They took the fall, but Csonka paid one of these

five prison guards to get him in the same room as Barany.

Okay, just keep working it.

If we can solidify this, we add another charge to the stack.

Come on.

Agent Mitchell, can I have a word?

You, too, Agent Booth.

Agent Booth just got called to testify tomorrow.

What?

He wasn't involved in the case at all.

He's a last-minute addition to the witness list.

The defense made the request. The judge acceded.

What advantage does this give them?

Well, given his lack of connection to the case,

- I have no idea. - Guys, I'm right here.

But there has to be a reason.

Csonka's lawyer doesn't do anything at random.

- He's an American, right? - Graham Simons.

Works for a white-shoe international firm.

Is he any good?

He is a rolling ball of butcher's knives.

Pretrial has been a nightmare.

He convinced the judge to do the entire proceedings

in English.

You don't sound too worried now.

You know we're not in Cleveland, right?

Hungarian trials are like inquisitions

compared to what you've seen.

But we've got the truth on our side.

Might need more than that.

No, I wasn't involved in the investigation or the arrest.

I joined the Fly Team for a 90-day assignment

only after the Csonka case.

To the best of your knowledge,

was Agent Wesley Mitchell

the lead investigator in the case against my client?

That's Special Supervisory Agent Mitchell.

And, yes, he ran point.

Your Honor, what is the relevance?

I'm about to get there, Judge.

- Do it faster then. - Hm.

You worked the Cerullo case together, correct?

Montrose, Colorado.

That's correct.

Agent Mitchell shot and killed the main suspect

in that investigation,

a suspect he was desperate to apprehend.

Desperate is not... no, he had to because...

And did the FBI's Office of Professional Responsibility

conduct a review of Agent Mitchell's

handling of the case?

Judge, the Cerullo case happened two years ago.

- What bearing does it have? - I've heard your objections.

- Continue, Mr. Simons. - Thank you, Judge.

Isn't it true that Agent Mitchell

failed to properly document his main source

in the Cerullo case?

I don't recall that.

Isn't it true that faulty information from this source

was what led to the illegal shooting by Agent Mitchell?

Objection. Relevance.

I don't know where you're getting your information.

Nothing was illegal.

This is a defamatory line of questioning, Your Honor.

How many corners did Mitchell cut

while investigating my client?

- Who is this guy? - Your Honor, please.

I bet he wanted to shoot and kill Mr. Csonka as well.

Mitchell blamed him for the murder of his partner,

- didn't he? - That's enough, Mr. Simon.

Withdraw the question, Judge.

All done here.

Judge, am I missing something here?

Is there a language barrier?

I understand you perfectly, Ms. Kollar.

Sit down.

Talk about below the belt. It was a freaking filing error.

It did the job, though.

Simons has planted a seed of doubt in the judge's mind.

Look, is there anything else about Montrose

that you need to get off your chest?

I didn't symbolize my source

because he wasn't gonna cooperate otherwise.

I know we didn't get the best outcome,

but proper paperwork wasn't gonna make a difference.

At least we know what their strategy is now.

Simons is going to impeach your credibility

and by extension, the case itself.

He'll manufacture all the muck he can throw at you.

So be ready.

Don't take the bait, brother.

Just to sum it up, all of it,

the youth center recruits, the robberies in America,

the remittance payments.

It was all organized and funded by the accused,

Greg Csonka, from right here in Budapest.

That is correct.

The whole scheme was directed from the top

by Csonka personally.

No more questions, Your Honor.

Mr. Simons.

Tell me about your mother, Agent Mitchell.

Objection.

Your Honor, this is getting ridiculous.

Judge, I'm prepared to show that Agent Mitchell

is irredeemably conflicted vis-à-vis my client.

But to do that, I need to delve into his personal history.

Agent Mitchell isn't on trial here.

Two minutes.

But if I don't like where this goes,

we'll have a difficult conversation

in my chambers, Mr. Simons.

Understood, Your Honor.

You weren't raised in the best of circumstances.

Your father was imprisoned for aggravated assault

when you were 12.

Your mother overdosed on heroin a couple of years later.

Is there a question in there?

As a minor, you were arrested for shoplifting,

disorderly conduct, and some other minor offenses.

Those records were expunged.

Were you ever incarcerated at Central Juvenile Hall,

Los Angeles, California?

I was, and before you get to the next part,

so was Greg Csonka.

But we were never there at the same time.

When you were a teenager,

did you know a boy named Trevor Ochoa?

This is 25 years ago. What's the point...

In 1993, my client had a run-in with Trevor Ochoa

while at Central Juvenile Hall.

He defended himself, but unfortunately,

Mr. Ochoa ended up hospitalized.

Did you know about this incident

between my client and your friend?

I remind you, you're under oath.

I was let out before that happened,

but I didn't know Greg Csonka was the one

that put him in the hospital.

So your best friend was severely injured in a fight,

but he didn't tell you who hurt him?

You expect us to believe that?

Objection, argumentative.

Isn't it true that during the investigation into Mr. Csonka,

the Hungarian National Police warned you about harassing him?

I recall a friendly conversation

with Detective Ambrus.

Detective Ambrus warned you about conducting surveillance

without a court order.

Your Honor, I would like to request a brief recess.

How did your mother get money for drugs?

Did she have a lot of guys hanging around the house?

Your Honor, this is completely...

If you wanna make this personal,

it's not gonna go well for you.

Let the record show the witness

just threatened my client.

I didn't threaten him. This is a joke.

Sit down, Agent Mitchell.

You just gave me a ticket to ride, tough guy.

That's enough! Get him out of here.

We are adjourned for the day.

Ms. Kollar, Mr. Simons, in my chambers right now.

The defense is filing a motion to dismiss.

The judge will give us a ruling tomorrow.

- How's it looking? - Not good.

We probably could have survived the juvenile hall connection,

but, well, you were there.

- You know what happened. - He came after my family.

I'm not just gonna sit there and take it.

I warned you. We're not in Cleveland.

- I knew this was a mistake. - That's not helping.

One more thing. I just talked to my boss.

Given the precarious state of our case,

if Csonka isn't convicted, we probably won't appeal.

What?

You would just let him walk?

We may not have a choice.

Six months?

Seriously?

That's the deal.

My client will confess to aiding and abetting

the obtaining of a tourist visa under false pretenses

in exchange for a six-month sentence,

including time served.

No, he's already served six months.

That works out great then.

Talk to the Hungarians and take the deal

before it comes off the table entirely.

If you confess to all the charges here,

there's a decent chance that your sentence

maxes out at 20 years.

But if you get acquitted, the DOJ will come after you.

The dirty tricks you pull, they may work here in Hungary,

but they sure as hell won't in America.

You'll spend the rest of your life

in a supermax prison making a bunch of new friends.

Well, I think I'll take my chances, huh?

But you look kind of cute when you bluff, you know that?

There it is.

Now, that's the look I was waiting for.

So the Hungarians are thinking about

making a deal with Csonka.

So at this point, the most viable path to putting him away

is to prove that he murdered Vilmos Barany, right?

Now, if we nail him on that charge,

the rest of the case locks into place.

So this is our working theory.

Csonka paid one of these five prison guards

to get him in the same room as Barany.

But we just don't know which one.

I took a crack at figuring that part out.

Since half our job is straight-up accounting,

I figured I'd just follow the money.

Csonka would send the proceeds of his American robberies

through remittance payments to money mules here in Hungary.

If Csonka did pay one of these guards off,

I figured he might revert to old habits.

I found a money transfer agency in California that sent

three remittance payments totaling $9,000

to an agency in Budapest in the last two days.

Any link to one of our five suspects?

Not yet, but there are two more payments

scheduled to the same anonymous recipient.

Okay, so we're gonna smoke this guy out.

Let's freeze their upcoming payments,

flag them for suspicious activity with FinCEN.

Yeah, that'll force whoever's picking up the cash

to deal with the agency directly.

- That's nice. - Do it.

I'm gonna post up outside the agency.

Ty, you're with me.

We got construction in the back alley.

Only one way in or out.

- Cameras? - Two in the shop.

Not sure if they're just for show, though.

The place closes in an hour.

So if this guy's gonna make his move, now's the time.

So Csonka's lawyer dredged up

some pretty heavy stuff back there.

Ancient history.

Crazy if you think about it, though.

Csonka and I come from the same world.

The only reason I'm not the one on trial:

the right person came along at the right time.

"There but for the grace of God."

Csonka's going down, Wes.

And I want you to know I'm up for...

whatever it takes

to make that happen.

You understand what I'm saying?

It's not like that, Ty.

Here we go.

He even walks like a prison guard.

Bertalan Solti?

Yes. Who are you?

You work at Vaskapu Prison?

- Yes. - You mind if we have a word?

First, I'd like to know what this is about.

Move your ass.

No, no, no, I-I didn't help him do it, I swear.

I wasn't even there when it happened.

You did put Csonka and Barany in the same room.

I didn't know he was going to kill him.

I just thought he would beat him up, you know?

Hey, who contacted you?

Who paid you to serve up Barany?

I found a cell phone in my car, prepaid.

A man called and offered me a lot of money

for five minutes of work.

He never said his name.

Just to protect myself, you understand...

I made a recording.

The recording is only 17 seconds long,

so we don't have a ton of material to work with.

They're talking about Barany,

and the caller is definitely Csonka's bag man.

Is he using a voice modulator?

Yeah, that's the problem.

I think he's multiplying his voice with a sine wave

to get a ring modulation effect,

but I just can't figure out how to reverse it.

That's because he's not using a voice modulator.

I think that's an electrolarynx.

That's right. My nan had to use one of those.

There's only one supplier of electrolarynxes in Budapest.

Okay, this is great.

Cross-reference every purchase of one of those

in the last five years

with all of Csonka's known associates.

Let's go. Come on.

Cam?

What's going on?

How's Wes doing?

He's good. Why?

Well, maybe I'm alone on this,

but it seems like him and Booth are getting a bit cozy.

Yeah.

And after finding out how Montrose went pear-shaped,

I'm thinking maybe these two having

another go at it isn't the best idea.

We are midstream, Smitty.

Got a name. Viktor Stoll.

Sending you the address now.

Okay, call HNP. Have them meet you guys there.

I'm gonna sit this one out

so we're not accused of misconduct.

Remember, this is one of Csonka's crew.

Eyes open, safeties off.

- You got it? - Copy.

Let's go.

Tyler, Smitty, secure the west entrance.

Watch out for civilians.

FBI!

Viktor Stoll, you're under arrest.

Do not move.

- Gun. - Hey, hey, drop it.

- Viktor, put down the gun now! - Hey!

No!

We just found this.

Still had it all stashed under the floorboards.

Financial docs, and there's plenty more

where this came from.

Who was this guy?

He was family.

A relative on Csonka's Hungarian side.

I found his laptop under the floorboards as well.

Looks like Csonka used somebody he trusted

to move his money around for him.

Reminds me of how Bernie Madoff got busted.

His entire operation was run by an old-school numbers cruncher

down to the decimal point.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hey, we just hit the mother lode.

It's got everything.

It's an account ledger encrypted

with a substitution cipher...

bribes to payouts to kickbacks.

This old man documented everything.

Are you seeing any remittance payments to Solti?

Uh...

Yep, same amounts on the same dates.

Must be him.

If it's encrypted, Viktor Stoll

was the one guy who could trace every single line

of this ledger back to Csonka.

Except he just ate a bullet.

Right.

But Csonka...

Csonka doesn't know that.

I'm not sure what the point of this meeting is.

The judge is about to rule on our motion to dismiss,

and I'm pretty sure that he's going...

What is that?

Ask your client.

I don't know what that is.

Really?

This laptop is property of Viktor Stoll.

Who is that?

Let's ask your client.

Is he your uncle or something, or a granddad?

What are you talking about?

You know, the thing with these old dudes,

once they're staring down the barrel of a 20-year stretch,

they get religion real quick.

And that confession we just got, oh, that was a doozy.

I mean, he literally gave us everything,

the full record of bribes and payouts.

Family, right?

They always let you down.

I'd like to have a private word with my client, please.

Don't take too long.

There it is.

That's the look I was waiting for.

I've seen you carrying that around before.

Louis Zamperini commemorative medallion.

War hero, World War II.

Mike Brooks gave it to me.

I didn't know it was gonna be his last day on Earth.

It's been a symbol of loss.

Today, it means justice served.

I still have some work to do, but we're close to a deal.

Csonka will confess to everything,

including the murder of Mike Brooks and Barany.

In exchange for?

30 years, to be served here in Hungary,

in a prison far less comfortable than this one.

It's not a life sentence.

Hey, I'll take it.

You know, you and I, we make a pretty good team.

If you ever want me to testify again, you just say the word.

Good one.

Hey, hold up.

Remember when I arrested you in that club you used to own?

It's all boarded up now, by the way.

You were talking tough.

You were saying something about how

you were gonna come find me, that I'd never see it coming.

Well, I saw it coming.

You in chains.

But you know what?

If you're around 30 years from now,

you still wanna come find me, I'll be waiting.

Get him out of my face.

All right, guys, we're 14 minutes away from...

whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

You all right?

Yeah.

What the hell is going on?

Get down!

Get down!

We gotta get around this truck!

We can't outflank it! Go!

Keep the driver pinned.

Cover! We're moving!

Csonka!

Wes, let's go!

Don't lose him. Don't lose him.

Hold on!

Csonka, show me your hands!

Show me your hands!

Move!

Nice and slow.

I don't have a gun.

Step away from the vehicle slowly.

Put your hands behind your head now.

Keep moving.

Right there. Now, get on your knees.

Get on your knees.

Csonka! Get on your knees!

Cam!

Shots fired, shots fired. Guys, Cam's been hit.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Cam, just hang in there.

Guys, I repeat, Cam is down.

Cam is down. Just hang in there.

Stay with me. Stay with me.

I need an ambulance to our location right now.

Hang in there, Cam.

Cam, just hang on.

Cam, just hang on. It's gonna be all right.

It's gonna be all right.

Hey, listen to the sound of my voice.

Can you hear me? Can you hear my voice?

Hold on.

Stay right here.

Come on, let's move!

Come on, come on!

- Sir, just let us work. - Just hang on, Cam.

- Hang on, Cam. - Let us work. Please.

They got you.

Hey, what the hell happened?

Is she okay? What happened?

She... she got hit. She got hit pretty bad.

And, uh, they're trying to stabilize her.

What does that mean?

Wes, what did they say?

Wes?

Wes?

Wes, are you okay?

Andre, stay with her.

I don't want her to be alone in case...

I'll talk to the doctors and send updates.

Go. Smitty, call HNP.

I want every single available officer here now.

Do it.

Everybody, listen up.

Our fugitive's name is Greg Csonka.

He has a 30-minute head start on us.

That's a huge zone to cover.

Let's get roadblocks set up at a 30-mile radius.

I need people at border checkpoints

in case he's trying to get out of the country.

I want air surveillance and ground surveillance

at all the airports, river docks, train stations,

subway stations, bus stations.

Hell, go knocking door to door if you have to.

Help us bring this guy in.

What are we waiting for?

You are here with the FBI agent?

Yes, yes. How is she?

Okay, she's in surgery now.

The bullet fractured her collarbone

and hit the subclavian vein.

She's lost a lot of blood.

We need to do a vein graft

without doing any additional damage.

Is she gonna be okay?

The doctors will do everything they can for her.

Teams Charlie and Foxtrot

just cleared their assigned sectors.

Okay, good. Tell them to keep a perimeter.

All teams need to maintain radio discipline.

Channel X for primary comms, channel Y for backup.

- Wes? - What's up?

I think we're going about this all wrong.

Go on.

This wasn't a spur of the moment type of thing.

He planned this perfectly.

That level of planning requires two things:

time and more importantly, money.

I did some digging into Viktor Stoll's records,

and I found a big investment made from one of Csonka's

shell companies to a Romanian barge operator

that works the Danube.

They've got a shipment set to move in 20 minutes.

Yeah, but this looks too presented.

He wants us to go in this direction.

I agree.

So I dug deeper, and I found this.

Five months ago, right after Csonka was arrested,

he bought a piece of farmland just outside of Budapest.

Kicker is, there's a defunct airstrip on that farmland.

Okay, tell HNP go to the barge.

We're gonna hit this airstrip.

Wes.

Any word on Cameron?

She's still in surgery. Just keep a good thought.

Will do.

Clear.

Clear!

That's clear.

I smell something. Petrol.

We have fresh tire tracks.

Guys, I think we just missed him.

An airstrip this size,

he's gonna be in a single engine two-seater.

That's a max range of 200 kilometers.

I'll have Eurocontrol monitor for light aircrafts,

but he's definitely gonna get to the border

before they spot him.

I got something over here!

Whatever you need.

Just say the word.

Andre, any news?

We're on our way.

She was in surgery and losing a lot of blood,

but they were fixing it.

And then, I-I don't know, something went wrong,

and they're saying she went into shock, and...

It doesn't look good.

Whatever I need, right?

I said what I said.

We're gonna go find Csonka.

I promise you that.

And when we do...

we're taking our badges off.
