"IT WAS BAGHEERA
THE BLACK PANTHER,

"INKY BLACK ALL OVER,

"BUT WITH THE PANTHER MARKINGS
SHOWING UP IN CERTAIN LIGHTS

"LIKE THE PATTERN
OF WATERED SILK.

HE HAD A VOICE
AS SOFT AS WILD HONEY."

MMM.

DELICIOUS.

[ LAUGHTER ]

I MEAN THAT.

WHEN I READ THE WORDS
"WILD HONEY,"

IT LIT UP
MY GUSTATORY CORTEX --

THE REGION OF THE BRAIN
THAT REGISTERS TASTE.

AND "WATERED SILK" TRIGGERED
MY SOMATOSENSORY CORTEX,

HOME TO MY SENSE OF TOUCH.

THAT'S WHY
WHEN WE READ LITERATURE,

IT MAKES US FEEL ALIVE --

IT SERVES UP A-A FEAST
FOR THE SENSES.

SO, THIS WEEKEND, I AM
CHALLENGING MR. LEWICKI HERE

TO PUT DOWN THE COMIC BOOKS

AND PICK UP SOME KIPLING
OR SOME FAULKNER OR SOME JOYCE.

AND IT WOULDN'T KILL
YOU KNUCKLEHEADS

TO DO THE SAME THING.

Donnie:
WHATCHA WRITING?

NO PEEKING.

[ Chuckling ] WHAT,
ARE YOU KEEPING A DIARY NOW --

LITTLE I's
DOTTED WITH HEARTS?

VERY FUNNY.

UH, IT'S MY VOWS
FOR THE WEDDING.

THOUGHT FATHER PAT
WANTED THOSE YESTERDAY.

I KNOW. I AM JUST, UH,
JUST TWEAKING THEM A LITTLE.

YOU'RE NOT EVEN CLOSE
TO FINISHED, ARE YOU?

[ CELLPHONE RINGS ]

MORETTI.

I'LL BE RIGHT THERE.

[ POLICE RADIO CHATTER,
SIRENS WAILING ]

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

SPECIAL AGENT MORETTI,
FBI.

WE'RE GOOD HERE.
OPEN-AND-SHUT CASE.

YOU MIND GIVING ME THE DETAILS
ANYWAY? YOU KNOW HOW IT IS.

I DON'T WANT TO GO BACK
TO THE BOSS EMPTY-HANDED.

GUY UNDER THE SHEET
IS AHMAD KHAN,

CONSUL GENERAL
OF BANGLADESH.

HE WAS STABBED IN THE NECK
BY HIS SECRETARY.

WOMAN'S NAME
IS NASIM SHAH.

SHE CONFESS?

DIDN'T HAVE TO. SHE WAS FOUND
HOLDING THE MURDER WEAPON.

SHE'S ON HER WAY
TO COUNTY LOCKUP.

YOU WANT TO MUSCLE IN
ON A CASE,

I GOT
A DOZEN OPEN HOMICIDES.

YOU'RE NOT TAKING
THIS ONE.

"TAKING"?
IT'S FBI JURISDICTION.

THE VICTIM'S
A FOREIGN OFFICIAL.

AND HE WAS MURDERED
ON A CITY STREET.

THIS CASE
BELONGS TO THE CPD.

[ BUZZER ]

MS. SHAH?
SPECIAL AGENT MORETTI, FBI.

I'D LIKE TO TALK TO YOU
ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TONIGHT.

I SWEAR, I DID NOT
KILL THE CONSUL.

THE POLICE
WILL NOT LISTEN TO ME.

OKAY.

JUST...
TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED.

UH, M-MR. KHAN
HAD JUST LEFT THE OFFICE.

HE WAS MEETING SOME FRIENDS
FOR DINNER

A FEW BLOCKS
FROM THE CONSULATE.

BUT THEN I REALIZED THAT HE HAD
LEFT HIS PHONE IN THE OFFICE.

AND SO
I WENT AFTER HIM.

MR. KHAN?

[ GASPS ]

THE PAIN WAS EXCRUCIATING.

I MANAGED TO CRAWL OVER
TO MR. KHAN

TO PULL OUT THE KNIFE.

[ GASPS ]

THAT'S WHEN I FAINTED.

DID I MISS SOMETHING?
WERE YOU ATTACKED, AS WELL?

N-NO.

NO.

BUT WHEN I SEE
SOMEONE IN PAIN,

THEIR SUFFERING
BECOMES MY SUFFERING.

SO YOU'RE SAYING YOU LITERALLY
FELT LIKE YOU HAD BEEN STABBED

AND THE PAIN
MADE YOU PASS OUT?

I KNOW HOW IT SOUNDS.

BUT EVERYTHING I'VE TOLD YOU
IS TRUE.

[ SIGHS SHAKILY ]

[ SNIFFLES ]
CHANDRA IS PUNISHING ME.

CHANDRA?

[ SNIFFLES ]
THE HINDU GOD OF THE MOON.

IN OUR CULTURE,

WE BEAR THE BURDENS OF SINS
COMMITTED IN OUR PAST LIVES.

THIS IS MY CURSE.

Man: CLEAR THE GATE.

GATE CLEAR.

Daniel: HERE SHE IS.

[ DOOR CREAKS, CLOSES ]

MS. SHAH, THIS IS MY ASSOCIATE
DR. PIERCE.

HE HAS A FEW QUESTIONS
HE'D LIKE TO ASK YOU.

ARE YOU OKAY?

THE WOMAN IN MY CELL
IS SICK.

ALL NIGHT, SHE WAS CRYING,

SAYING THAT SHE WOULD DIE
WITHOUT A FIX.

NOW SHE IS QUIET,
BUT SHE CANNOT STOP SHAKING.

OW!
OW!

SORRY.
JUST CONFIRMING MY THEORY.

I'M FINE.
THANKS FOR ASKING.

WHEN DID YOU START EXPERIENCING
OTHER PEOPLE'S PAIN?

WHEN I WAS 5,

A BOY IN MY VILLAGE TRIPPED
MY SISTER AND BROKE HER LEG.

I FELL DOWN, TOO,
BECAUSE THE PAIN WAS SO INTENSE.

THAT'S WHEN THE VILLAGE ELDERS
SAID THAT I WAS CURSED.

YOU'RE NOT CURSED.

I THINK YOU HAVE
A NEUROLOGICAL CONDITION

CALLED
MIRROR-TOUCH SYNESTHESIA.

I-I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

WHEN MOST OF US
SEE SOMEONE BEING TOUCHED,

OUR BRAINS
CREATE A SIMULATION

OF WHAT WE THINK
THAT TOUCH FEELS LIKE.

BUT WHEN YOU SEE SOMEONE

BEING CARESSED OR --
OR PINCHED OR STABBED,

YOUR BRAIN RESPONDS
AS IF IT WAS HAPPENING TO YOU.

I'M GUESSING YOU ALSO KNOW
WHAT PEOPLE ARE FEELING --

WHETHER THEY'RE HAPPY,
SAD, JEALOUS?
YES.

THAT'S BECAUSE YOUR BRAIN
MIMICS EMOTIONAL REACTIONS, TOO.

WE ALL MAKE
MICRO-FACIAL EXPRESSIONS

THAT TELEGRAPH
WHAT WE'RE FEELING.

MOST PEOPLE
CAN'T PERCEIVE THEM,

BUT A SYNESTHETE
UNCONSCIOUSLY PICKS UP ON THEM.

SHE'S AT THE MERCY
OF EVERYONE AROUND HER

AND WHATEVER
THEY'RE GOING THROUGH.

SHE WOULDN'T STAB ANYONE.
IT'D BE LIKE PLUNGING
A KNIFE INTO HER OWN NECK.

YES. THAT'S EXACTLY IT.

P-PLEASE, PLEASE, CAN YOU GET ME
OUT OF THIS PLACE?

SO, YOU THINK
THIS WOMAN IS INNOCENT,

BUT YOU WANT ME TO CHARGE HER
WITH MURDER ANYWAY.

WHY?

LOOK, SHE'S UNUSUAL,
ALL RIGHT?

SHE LITERALLY
HAD WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS

JUST BECAUSE THE JUNKIE
IN THE CELL WITH HER DID, TOO.

DANIEL SAYS THAT SHE
COULD SUFFER A SERIOUS
PSYCHOLOGICAL BREAKDOWN

IF WE DON'T GET HER
OUT OF COUNTY LOCKUP.

AND TAKE HER WHERE?

IT'S NOT LIKE
THINGS ARE GONNA BE

MUCH BETTER FOR HER
AT A FEDERAL JAIL.

WELL, ONCE YOU CHARGE HER,

WE CAN PUT HER IN A MOTEL
WITH A MARSHAL WATCHING HER.

MEANWHILE, DANIEL AND I
WILL GO FIND THE REAL KILLER,

AND THEN
YOU CAN DROP THE CHARGES.

AH. I SEE.

AND I'M SUPPOSED TO SELL
THIS LITTLE PLAN OF YOURS

TO A JUDGE
HOW, EXACTLY?

IF NASIM...
STAYS IN JAIL...

SHE COULD SEE SOMEONE
GET SHANKED,

PASS OUT AGAIN
FROM THE PAIN.

YOU'D BE LOOKING
AT A BRAIN INJURY, MAYBE WORSE.

"FOREIGN NATIONAL DIES
IN U.S. CUSTODY" --

THAT'S NOT A HEADLINE
ANYONE WANTS TO SEE, RIGHT?

MNH-MNH.

I HOPE YOU'RE PUTTING
SOME OF THAT CREATIVITY

INTO YOUR VOWS.

AGENT MORETTI,
DR. PIERCE.

I'M VICE-CONSUL
RASHID PRASAD.

PLEASE.

THANK YOU
FOR MAKING TIME FOR US.

YOU HAVE
OUR CONDOLENCES.

THANK YOU.

THE CONSUL WAS A MAN
OF GREAT SERVICE.

AND NASIM IS ADORED
BY EVERYONE HERE.

I CAN'T BELIEVE
SHE WOULD HARM ANYONE.

WE AGREE.

GOOD.

THERE MUST BE
SOME OTHER EXPLANATION.

YOU KNOW, THERE'S A FACILITY
FOR THE MENTALLY ILL NEARBY.

PERHAPS ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE
GOT LOOSE.

"THOSE PEOPLE"?

[ CLEARS THROAT ]
NOW THAT THE CONSUL IS GONE,

YOU'RE IN CHARGE HERE NOW,
IS THAT RIGHT?

TEMPORARILY.

I'M STILL VICE-CONSUL
UNTIL A NEW APPOINTMENT IS MADE.

I'M SURE IT'S A VERY SHORT LIST
OF CANDIDATES --

WITH YOUR NAME
AT THE TOP?

I DON'T APPRECIATE
WHAT YOU'RE IMPLYING.

WE DO NEED TO BE THOROUGH IN
OUR INVESTIGATION, MR. PRASAD.

I'M SURE THAT YOU CAN
APPRECIATE THAT.

OF COURSE.

BUT I ASSURE YOU,

THIS IS NOT HOW I WOULD CHOOSE
TO ADVANCE MY CAREER.

DID THE CONSUL HAVE ANY ENEMIES
THAT YOU'RE AWARE OF?

NO.

BUT YOU SHOULD TALK TO THE HEAD
OF OUR SECURITY, OFFICER MEHTA.

THERE WERE NO SPECIFIC THREATS
AGAINST THE CONSUL

THAT I KNEW OF.

BUT THERE WAS
A-AN INCIDENT

A FEW HOURS BEFORE
THE CONSUL WAS MURDERED.

TELL US ABOUT IT.

[ SIGHS ]

A REPORTER SHOWED UP,

CLAIMING TO BE WRITING AN EXPOSé
FOR THE CHICAGO STAR-HERALD.

THE CONSUL TOLD ME
HE'D ALREADY GIVEN THIS REPORTER

AN INTERVIEW A FEW WEEKS BEFORE,
TOLD ME TO TURN HIM AWAY.

WHEN I DID,
THE REPORTER GOT VERY ANGRY.

STARTED MAKING ACCUS--

...ACCUSATIONS
REGARDING THE CONSUL.

SUCH AS?

[ SIGHS ]

PLEASE UNDERSTAND,

I DON'T WISH TO INSULT
THE INTEGRITY OF THE CONSUL,

PARTICULARLY NOW
THAT HE CAN'T DEFEND HIMSELF.

OFFICER MEHTA,
ANYTHING YOU SHARE WITH US

MAY HELP US
FIND HIS KILLER.

OF COURSE.

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

THE REPORTER SAID
THAT THE CONSUL WAS RESPONSIBLE

FOR THE DEATHS OF THOUSANDS
OF PEOPLE IN BANGLADESH.

WHAT DID HE MEAN
BY THAT?

HE DIDN'T SAY
SPECIFICALLY --

JUST THAT IT WAS RELATED
TO THE RECENT CHOLERA EPIDEMIC.

HE ALSO GAVE ME THIS.

HE SAID TO CALL HIM
IF I CARED ABOUT JUSTICE.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

MR. PINEDA?

[ ENGINE IDLING ]

YOU HEAR THAT?

IT'S A CAR RUNNING.

MR. PINEDA?

[ SCOFFS ]

[ DOORKNOB RATTLING ]

I GOT IT. I GOT IT.

HOLD YOUR BREATH.

[ COUGHS ]

[ COUGHS ]

[ ENGINE SHUTS OFF ]

GRAB HIS FEET.

[ COUGHING ]

[ POLICE RADIO CHATTER,
SIRENS WAILING ]

WHAT'S THIS?

DIAZEPAM.

ONE OF THE CRIME TECHS
FOUND IT

ON AN END TABLE
IN THE LIVING ROOM.

NOT UNCOMMON WITH SUICIDE.

TAKES THE EDGE OFF
SO THEY CAN DO THE DEED.

'COURSE,
THIS WASN'T A SUICIDE.

DANIEL, NO.
COME ON, KATE.

A REPORTER ACCUSES
THE BANGLADESHI CONSUL

OF BEING COMPLICIT
SOMEHOW

IN THE DEATHS
OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE,

AND WITHIN A DAY, THE REPORTER
AND THE CONSUL WIND UP DEAD?

IF SOMEONE WANTED
TO MURDER PINEDA,

THERE ARE MUCH EASIER WAYS
OF DOING IT

THAN DRAGGING HIM
INTO A CAR

AND FORCING HIM
TO INHALE EXHAUST FUMES.

SO MAYBE HE WAS ALREADY DEAD
WHEN THEY PUT HIM IN THE CAR.

THE M.E. SAID
THAT HIS SKIN DISCOLORATION

IS CONSISTENT WITH
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING.

OKAY, SO MAYBE HE WAS
UNCONSCIOUS. I DON'T KNOW.

WE NEED TO FIND OUT
WHATEVER STORY THAT
REPORTER WAS WORKING ON.

I MEAN,
THAT'S GOT TO BE PART OF IT.

I'LL HAVE CYBER GO THROUGH
HIS PHONE AND COMPUTER.

WHAT ABOUT THE CRIME
SCENE PHOTOS? YOU CAN
GET YOUR HANDS ON THOSE?

I'LL GET THEM FOR YOU,
BUT RIGHT NOW,

THERE'S JUST SOMEWHERE ELSE
THAT I'VE GOT TO BE.

Father Pat:
WELL, NOBODY SERVES BETTER
GREASY FOOD THAN MORETTI'S.

PLENTY MORE
WHERE THAT CAME FROM.

NOW, WHY ARE YOU TRYING
TO PLY ME WITH FOOD?

COME ON, FATHER PAT.

CAN'T A COUPLE OF OLD FRIENDS
JUST GET TOGETHER FOR A BITE?

OKAY, HERE'S THE THING.

I'M HOPING THAT YOU CAN LET ME
GET A LOOK AT DONNIE'S VOWS.

DON'T YOU WANT TO WAIT
TILL THE WEDDING DAY?

LOOK,
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE

THAT DONNIE AND I
ARE ON THE SAME WAVELENGTH.

I DON'T WANT
TO WRITE SOMETHING FUNNY

IF HE'S WRITTEN SOMETHING
MORE SERIOUS OR VICE VERSA.

SO YOU HAVEN'T
WRITTEN YOURS YET.

WHY DOES EVERYONE ASSUME THAT?
YES. I'VE WRITTEN LOTS OF VOWS.

JUST NONE THAT I LIKE.

FINE.

BUT YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET
THE INSPIRATION YOU NEED

FROM DONNIE'S.

WHY DO YOU THINK THAT?

'CAUSE I'M NOT
GONNA SHOW THEM TO YOU.

IT'S NOT FAIR TO DONNIE,
FIRST OF ALL.

AND SECOND OF ALL, I HAPPEN
TO REMEMBER "MOUNT MORETTI."

WHAT?

THAT AMAZING VOLCANO
THAT YOU BUILT

FOR SISTER MARGARET'S
SCIENCE FAIR IN THE 4th GRADE.

YOU SPENT DAYS COMPLAINING
THAT YOU COULDN'T DO IT.

THEN THE NIGHT BEFORE,
YOU PULLED IT OFF,

WON THE WHOLE SCIENCE FAIR.

YOU CAN DO THIS, KATE.

BUT WHY DO I HAVE TO?

IT'S A TRADITIONAL
CATHOLIC CEREMONY.

WE'RE NOT EVEN
SUPPOSED TO WRITE OUR OWN VOWS.

THERE'S NOTHING TRADITIONAL
ABOUT YOU TWO GETTING MARRIED,

DIVORCED, ANNULLED,
THEN REMARRIED.

THIS IS
WHAT DONNIE WANTED TO DO,

SO THIS IS
WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO.

[ SIGHS ]

WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?
[ Australian accent ]
HEY, HEY, HEY.

TAKE IT EASY, MATE.
I'M A FRIEND.

I'VE NEVER SEEN YOU BEFORE
IN MY LIFE.

I DON'T KNOW
HOW YOU GOT IN HERE, BUT --

NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
UH, SORRY.

I'M A FRIEND OF NATALIE'S.

GREAT.

MY HALLUCINATIONS ARE
MAKING FRIENDS WITH EACH OTHER.

[ LAUGHS ]

YEAH, WE ARE.

MET NATALIE A FEW MONTHS AGO
IN BANGLADESH.

PBHT. WHAT A GREAT LADY.
JUST AN AMAZING ENERGY.

WHEN I TOLD HER
I WAS HEADED TO CHICAGO,

SHE SAID
I SHOULD CRASH WITH YOU.

NATALIE WOULD NEVER
SAY SOMETHING SAY THAT.

WELL, SHE WAS ON
A SPIRITUAL SABBATICAL.

THAT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE HER
AT ALL.

NO, SHE'S MADE SOME INCREDIBLE
PROGRESS IN HER PRACTICE

SINCE SHE LEFT HERE.

SHE'S REALLY DISCOVERED
HER BLISS, YOU KNOW?

SHE'S SO MUCH HAPPIER.

AND THE, UH...THE FEW DAYS
THAT WE SPENT TOGETHER

WERE, UH...
MUTUALLY SPIRITUAL...

[ CHUCKLES ]

...IF YOU CATCH MY DRIFT.

OKAY. GET OUT.

MATE, I'M SENSING
SOME REAL HOSTILITY HERE.

REALLY? REALLY?

YOU'RE VULGAR AND DISGUSTING,
AND I-I CAN'T BEAR THE THOUGHT

OF YOU AND NATALIE
HAVING MUTUAL...ANYTHING,

EVEN IF YOU ARE
BOTH IMAGINARY.

NOW GO. GET YOUR FILTHY FEET OFF
MY COUCH AND OUT OF MY HOUSE.

THEY'RE NOT EVEN
THAT DIRTY.

OH, ARE YOU KI--
LOOK AT THEM. THEY'RE FI--

Dr. Swank: I'LL BE DAMNED IF
YOU WEREN'T RIGHT, DR. PIERCE.

THERE IS
A MICROSCOPIC PUNCTURE MARK

ALONG THE HAIRLINE

WITH RESIDUAL TRACES
OF DIAZEPAM AROUND IT.

EXPLAINS THE METABOLIZED LEVELS
WE FOUND IN HIS BLOODSTREAM.

ENOUGH
TO KNOCK OUT A HORSE.

WOULD'VE ASSUMED IT WAS FROM
THE PILLS IF YOU HADN'T CALLED.

WELL,
IT'S PRACTICALLY INVISIBLE.

HOW THE HELL
DID YOU KNOW TO LOOK?

HIS FEET WERE CLEAN.

I'M SORRY.
COME AGAIN?

IT RAINED THAT NIGHT.

THE YARD BETWEEN PINEDA'S HOUSE
AND THE GARAGE WAS A MESS.

IF HE'D GONE OUT THERE
TO KILL HIMSELF,

HIS FEET WOULD'VE BEEN
COVERED WITH MUD.

I THINK THE KILLER
BROKE INTO THE HOUSE...

FOUND PINEDA SLEEPING,
INJECTED HIM WITH DIAZEPAM...

[ BOTH GRUNTING ]

...SUBDUED HIM -- WHICH WOULDN'T
HAVE BEEN THAT HARD

BECAUSE OF THE VALIUM...

...THEN LEFT THOSE PILLS
ON THE END TABLE

TO ACCOUNT FOR THE DRUG
SHOWING UP IN THE TOX REPORT.

HE TOOK PINEDA'S BODY
THROUGH THE YARD,

MAKING SURE THAT HE DIDN'T
GET FOOTPRINTS IN THE GARAGE,

PUT HIM IN THE CAR...

STARTED THE ENGINE...

[ ENGINE TURNS OVER ]

...AND LEFT HIM TO DIE.

PRETTY SLICK.
SOUNDS PROFESSIONAL.

WELL, I'M CHANGING
THE CAUSE OF DEATH TO HOMICIDE.

[ CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING ]

[ CLICK, MUSIC STOPS ]

CYBER DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING
ON BANGLADESH OR CHOLERA

ON SCOTT PINEDA'S COMPUTER.

HIS HARD DRIVE WAS WIPED.
SO WAS HIS PHONE.

AND THE EDITOR
AT THE STAR-HERALD

SAID THAT PINEDA
NEVER FILED HIS STORY.

WHAT ABOUT
PHONE-COMPANY RECORDS?

THE LAST CALL PINEDA MADE
BEFORE HE DIED WAS TO A DOCTOR.

HIS NAME IS...
TREVOR RHODES?

SCOTT AND I
WERE ROOMMATES IN COLLEGE.

WHY ARE YOU ASKING?

HE WAS MURDERED
LAST NIGHT.

I'M VERY SORRY.

OH, GOD.

I NEVER SHOULD'VE
TOLD HIM.

TOLD HIM WHAT?

I, UH...
I WORK IN INFECTIOUS DISEASES.

I-I-I VOLUNTEER FOR
THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION.

YOU WERE WORKING
IN BANGLADESH.

YEAH.

LAST YEAR, THEY HAD

OVER A QUARTER MILLION CASES
OF CHOLERA.

THE BANGLADESHIS TASK
THEIR INTERNATIONAL CONSULATES

WITH SOURCING VACCINES.

SIX MONTHS AGO,

I HEARD THE CHICAGO CONSULATE
HAD ORDERED A SHIPMENT

OF ONE OF THE NEWER ONES --
UH, BACTRA-VOX --

FOR ONE OF THE POORER REGIONS
OF THE COUNTRY,

SO I WENT TO BANGLADESH
TO HELP ADMINISTER IT,

BUT WHEN THE SHIPMENT
ARRIVED...

[ INDISTINCT TALKING ]

DAMN IT.

...I WAS PISSED,
BECAUSE INSTEAD OF BACTRA-VOX,

THEY SENT US NUMORAL --
AN OUTDATED VACCINE.

ALL I COULD DO WAS INOCULATE
THE LOCALS WITH WHAT WE HAD

AND...PRAY TO GOD NO NEW STRAINS
OF CHOLERA APPEARED.

LET ME GUESS --
YOUR PRAYERS WEREN'T ANSWERED.

IT WAS DEVASTATING.

THOUSANDS DIED --
MOSTLY KIDS, OLD PEOPLE.

WHERE DOES SCOTT COME IN?

[ SIGHS ]
WHEN I GOT BACK TO CHICAGO,

UH, WE MET FOR DINNER
TO CATCH UP.

I TOLD HIM ABOUT ALL THE MONEY
AND THE LIVES WASTED

ON THIS OUTDATED VACCINE.

AND PINEDA
SMELLED A STORY.

WE BOTH JUST FIGURED IT WAS
BUREAUCRATIC INCOMPETENCE.

BUT THEN SCOTT WENT
AND INTERVIEWED THE CONSUL,

AND THE GUY LIED
RIGHT TO HIS FACE.

HE KEPT INSISTING THAT
HE HAD BOUGHT THE NEWER VACCINE

FOR HIS PEOPLE, NOT NUMORAL.

MAYBE
THE CONSUL DIDN'T LIE.

MAYBE NAVILET PHARMACEUTICALS
DID A BAIT-AND-SWITCH.

WELL, THAT'S
WHAT WE THOUGHT, TOO.

BUT THEN
SCOTT DID SOME DIGGING

AND FOUND OUT
SOMETHING MUCH WORSE.

THERE WAS A RUMOR

THAT THE W.H.O.
WAS GOING TO DE-CERTIFY NUMORAL.

SCOTT DISCOVERED THAT NAVILET
HAD A WHOLE STOCKPILE

JUST SITTING IN A WAREHOUSE THAT
SUDDENLY NO ONE WANTED TO TOUCH.

AND THEN HE TRACKED DOWN SOME
SUSPICIOUS OFFSHORE DEPOSITS

MADE BY
ONE OF THEIR SENIOR V.P.s

RIGHT AROUND
THE TIME OF THE SALE.

SO NAVILET
BRIBED THE CONSUL

TO TAKE THE OUTDATED VACCINE
OFF THEIR HANDS?

THAT WAS SCOTT'S THEORY.

DO YOU KNOW WHO AT NAVILET
NEGOTIATED THE VACCINE DEAL?

I ASSURE YOU,
MY CLIENT DIDN'T BRIBE ANYONE.

MR. SLOANE IS NAVILET'S
SENIOR VICE-PRESIDENT OF SALES.

HE WOULDN'T RISK
HIS OR THE COMPANY'S REPUTATION

ON A VACCINE DEAL WORTH --
WHAT, $50 MILLION?

I TOLD THE CONSUL
SIX MONTHS AGO

THAT I'D GIVE HIM A DISCOUNTED
PRICE ON BACTRA-VOX.

BUT DEMAND WAS HIGH,

AND IT WAS GONNA BE EIGHT WEEKS
BEFORE THE ORDER WAS FULFILLED.

THE CONSUL TOLD ME THAT CHOLERA
SEASON WAS FAST APPROACHING

AND HIS GOVERNMENT
JUST COULDN'T WAIT THAT LONG.

SO HE AGREED
TO PURCHASE NUMORAL,

HOPING IT WOULD BE
AS EFFECTIVE.

UNFORTUNATELY, WE ALL KNOW HOW
THAT TURNED OUT. IT'S TRAGIC.

OH, COME ON,
YOU HAD INSIDE INFORMATION

THAT THE OLD VACCINE WAS ABOUT
TO BE YANKED BY THE W.H.O.,

SO YOU PAID OFF THE CONSUL
TO TAKE IT.

I ASSUME YOU WORK ON COMMISSION,
SO WHO CARES

IF A FEW POOR PEOPLE DIE SO THAT
YOU CAN LINE YOUR POCKETS?

DANIEL.

I UNDERSTAND THE IMPULSE
TO FIND A BAD GUY, DR. PIERCE,

BUT WHAT YOU'RE ALLEGING
SIMPLY ISN'T TRUE.

WE DONATE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
OF LIFESAVING MEDICINES

EVERY YEAR.

AND WE REINVEST A SIGNIFICANT
AMOUNT OF OUR PROFITS

TO HELP IMPROVE
THE LIVING CONDITIONS

OF PEOPLE
IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES.

OH, SPARE ME THE CORPORATE
BULLSHIT. YOU BRIBED THE CONSUL.

WHEN THE REPORTER FOUND OUT
ABOUT IT, YOU HAD HIM KILLED.

HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?
WHAT?
WHAT I HAVEN'T
FIGURED OUT IS,

WHY WOULD YOU
KILL THE CONSUL, TOO?

I DIDN'T KILL ANYONE.

OH, COME ON. WHAT ELSE --
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

WHAT THE HELL
ARE YOU DOING?

THEY'RE LYING
THROUGH THEIR TEETH.

AND YOU ARE MAKING
WILD ACCUSATIONS.

SLOANE PAID OFF THE CONSUL --
WHY WOULD HE KILL HIM?

MAYBE THE CONSUL
HAD A CHANGE OF HEART

AND THREATENED TO COME CLEAN
AFTER ALL THOSE PEOPLE DIED.

OR MAYBE HE JUST DEMANDED
A BIGGER KICKBACK.

ASSUMING A KICKBACK HAPPENED
IN THE FIRST PLACE.

UNTIL WE HAVE EVIDENCE,

IT'S JUST SPECULATION
FROM A DEAD REPORTER.

BUT...

IF THE CONSUL
DID TAKE A KICKBACK

AND HE SUDDENLY
CAME INTO A LOT OF MONEY,

MAYBE HE STARTED
SPENDING IT.

SOMEONE WOULD'VE NOTICED.

LIKE THE WOMAN
WHO HANDLES ALL OF HIS AFFAIRS.

THE CONSUL WAS NOT GREEDY.
HE LED A SIMPLE LIFE.

SO YOU NEVER NOTICED ANY CHANGE
IN HIS FINANCIAL AFFAIRS --

AN INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE
OR AN OFFSHORE ACCOUNT?

NO.

NONE OF US JOINED
THE FOREIGN SERVICE TO GET RICH.

THE CONSUL BELIEVED
THAT HIS PURPOSE IN LIFE

WAS HELPING OTHERS.

PERHAPS
HE CHANGED HIS MIND?

I DON'T THINK SO.

WHY ARE YOU ASKING
THESE QUESTIONS?

[ SIGHS ] WE THINK THE CONSUL
MAY HAVE ACCEPTED A BRIBE

IN EXCHANGE FOR BUYING
OUTDATED CHOLERA VACCINES.

NO.

NO, I CANNOT BELIEVE

THAT HE WOULD BETRAY OUR COUNTRY
FOR MONEY.

MANY OF US LOST PEOPLE
THAT WE LOVE IN THE EPIDEMIC.

OFFICER MEHTA --
HE LOST A SON AND A DAUGHTER.

I LOST A COUSIN.

AND HOW DID THE CONSUL REACT
TO ALL THIS?

HE GRIEVED WITH US.

IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

RASHID.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

IT'S MY JOB TO LOOK AFTER
THE WELFARE OF OUR CITIZENS.

WHY ARE YOU TALKING TO THE FBI
WITHOUT YOUR ATTORNEY?

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.

DR. PIERCE
AND AGENT MORETTI --

THEY DON'T BELIEVE
I'M GUILTY.

THEN WHY ARE YOU HERE?

WE'RE INVESTIGATING
A DEAL

THAT YOUR CONSUL MADE
WITH NAVILET PHARMACEUTICALS.

DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING
ABOUT IT?

I'M AWARE THE CONSUL
AUTHORIZED THE PURCHASE

OF A VACCINE FOR CHOLERA,
BUT THAT'S ALL I KNOW.

[ RETCHES ]

NASIM?
ARE YOU OKAY?

WE SHOULD GO.

NASIM?

NASIM GETS SICK, AND YOU GO
RUNNING OUT OF THE ROOM?

WHAT'S THAT ABOUT?

NASIM THREW UP, BUT SHE'S NOT
THE ONLY ONE THAT FELT SICK.

HOW DO YOU KNOW NASIM
DIDN'T JUST EAT SOME
BAD CHICKEN FOR LUNCH?

SHE THREW UP
AT THE PRECISE MOMENT

WE TOLD RASHID
ABOUT THE DRUG DEAL.

SHE WAS MIRRORING HIS FEELINGS.
HE WAS ANXIOUS.

YEAH, BECAUSE
HE WAS THE OFFICIAL

TAKING KICKBACKS
FROM THE DRUG COMPANY.

OKAY,
BUT AS I UNDERSTAND IT,

THE CONSUL WOULD'VE
HAD TO SIGN OFF ON THIS DEAL,

SO WHY WOULD THE NUMBER-TWO GUY
BE THE ONE GETTING KICKBACKS?

MAYBE THEY WERE CO-CONSPIRATORS,
SPLITTING THE MONEY.

WE DON'T KNOW YET.

AT THE VERY LEAST,
RASHID KNEW ABOUT IT.

THINK ABOUT IT --
SLOANE SELLS $50 MILLION

WORTH OF USELESS VACCINES
AT -- WHAT, 2% COMMISSION?

THAT'S A MILLION DOLLARS.

THEN HE PAYS OFF THE VICE-CONSUL
TO PUSH THE DEAL THROUGH.

WELL, IT'S A NICE THEORY.
WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?

YOU CAN START WITH A SUBPOENA
FOR NAVILET'S FINANCIAL RECORDS,

SEE IF THEY SHOW
THE DEPOSITS

THAT SLOANE MADE
INTO THAT OFFSHORE ACCOUNT.

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.

NO JUDGE IS GOING TO SIGN OFF
ON A FISHING EXPEDITION

AGAINST ONE OF
THE BIGGEST COMPANIES IN TOWN.

WELL, IF WE CAN'T GO AFTER
NAVILET, THEN LET'S GET
RASHID'S FINANCIALS.

HE'S A DIPLOMAT
FOR A SOVEREIGN NATION.

WE START DIGGING AROUND THERE
WITHOUT EVIDENCE,

[ CELLPHONE RINGS ]
I'LL BE GETTING CALLS
FROM THE STATE DEPARTMENT.

MORETTI.

YEAH.

LOOK, I WANT TO HELP YOU GUYS.
YOU KNOW THIS.

BUT YOU GOT TO BRING ME MORE
THAN A PUDDLE OF PUKE.

GOT IT. YES.

I'M ON IT.

I'M SORRY. WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO
TALK ABOUT THIS LATER.

DANIEL, I'VE GOT ANOTHER CASE
I NEED YOUR HELP WITH.

WE HAVE A NEW CASE?

YES -- THE CASE
OF THE MISSING VOWS.

WHAT?

THAT WAS FATHER PAT
ON THE PHONE.

I WAS SUPPOSED TO
HAVE MY WEDDING VOWS
TO HIM TWO DAYS AGO,

AND I'VE WRITTEN THOUSANDS OF
VERSIONS, BUT ALL OF THEM SUCK.

NOW, YOU ARE
A GREAT WRITER.

YOU COME UP WITH
ALL OF THESE BRILLIANT LECTURES.

OH, NO. NO, NO, NO.
I'M DESPERATE.

I'M NOT WRITING
YOUR WEDDING VOWS FOR YOU.

I DON'T SEE WHY NOT.

BECAUSE IT'S WRONG
ON SO MANY LEVELS.

I WOULDN'T EVEN --
MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHING HERE

THAT YOU COULD JUST USE
AS A JUMPING-OFF POINT.

KATE, I --

DANIEL, PLEASE. I HAVE ALREADY
LET DONNIE DOWN SO MANY TIMES.

I AM BEGGING YOU HERE. YOU ARE
THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN HELP ME.

'CAUSE IF YOU'RE NOT FEELING
WELL, I CAN JUST GET YOU --

LEWICKI. LEWICKI, LEWICKI,
I'M FINE. JUST...GET LOST.

ALL RIGHT.

Australian:
YOU KNOW, YOU SHOULD REALLY
SHOW THAT GUY SOME RESPECT.

YOU KNOW, IT'S ALWAYS
"LEWICKI THIS, LEWICKI THAT."

WHY DON'T YOU TRY CALLING HIM
BY HIS FIRST NAME FOR ONCE?

I HAVE CALLED HIM
BY HIS --

HIS FIRST NAME.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

HELLO, DR. PIERCE,
AGENT M--

YOU'RE UPSET, DOCTOR.

DID I DO SOMETHING WRONG?

YOU DIDN'T TELL US
THE TRUTH

ABOUT YOUR RELATIONSHIP
WITH VICE-CONSUL PRASAD.

THERE'S NOTHING TO TELL.

I'VE NOTICED HOW FORMAL YOU ARE
WHEN YOU TALK TO PEOPLE,

ALWAYS ADDRESSING THEM
BY THEIR PROPER TITLES --

"DR. PIERCE," "AGENT MORETTI,"
"MR. KHAN."

BUT YOU CALL THE VICE-CONSUL
BY HIS FIRST NAME -- RASHID.

AND NOW YOU'RE BLUSHING.

I DON'T HAVE TO BE A SYNESTHETE
TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THAT MEANS.

YOU'RE IN LOVE WITH HIM,
YES?

MM. WE HAVE BEEN
SEEING EACH OTHER.

BUT I AM HINDU,
AND HE IS MUSLIM,

AND OUR FAMILIES NEVER WOULD
APPROVE, SO WE KEPT IT QUIET.

YOU SENSED
HOW NERVOUS RASHID WAS

WHEN WE BROUGHT UP
THE VACCINE DEAL.

WE THINK
HE'S HIDING SOMETHING.

HIDING WHAT?

THAT HE WAS INVOLVED

IN THE MURDERS OF THE CONSUL
AND THE REPORTER.

[ SCOFFS ] WHAT?

NO.

RASHID IS NOT A KILLER.

HE WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE
WHO WAS NERVOUS.

I WAS NERVOUS, TOO, BE--

BECAUSE OF WHAT HAPPENED
TO THE CONTRACT.

THE CONTRACT
WITH NAVILET?

WHAT HAPPENED TO IT?

RASHID CAME TO THE OFFICE
TO PICK IT UP.

HE WAS SUPPOSED TO DELIVER IT
TO THE DRUG COMPANY.

HE BROUGHT ME A COFFEE,
AS HE SOMETIMES DOES.

I WAS TERRIFIED.

I KNEW THAT THE CONSUL
WOULD LOSE HIS TEMPER

IF HE FOUND OUT
THE PAPERWORK WAS RUINED.

OH, WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?

HE'LL FIRE ME. HE'LL SEND ME
BACK TO BANGLADESH.

I WON'T LET THAT HAPPEN.

IT'S OKAY.
I'VE GOT ANOTHER COPY.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

THE CONSUL GAVE ME A COPY
TO REVIEW.

IT'S IN MY OFFICE.
I'LL GET IT.

ALL YOU NEED TO DO
IS SIGN FOR HIM.

YOU'VE SIGNED HIS NAME BEFORE,
HAVEN'T YOU?

THE CONSUL TOLD THE REPORTER
THE TRUTH AFTER ALL.

HE DID BUY
THE NEW VACCINE.

OR AT LEAST
HE THOUGHT HE WAS BUYING IT

WHEN HE SIGNED
THE PAPERWORK.

I-I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

THE CONTRACT
THAT RASHID BROUGHT YOU,

THE ONE YOU FORGED
THE CONSUL'S SIGNATURE ON,

WAS FOR THE OLD VACCINE.

[ EXHALES SHARPLY ]

ALL THOSE PEOPLE
WHO DIED...

...I AM TO BLAME.

YOU COULDN'T HAVE KNOWN.
RASHID WAS USING YOU.

BUT IF HIS FEELINGS
WERE NOT REAL,

I SHOULD'VE BEEN ABLE TO TELL --
BECAUSE OF MY CONDITION.

HIS FEELINGS FOR YOU
MIGHT BE REAL.

THAT DOESN'T MEAN
HE'S NOT A KILLER.

THIS DOESN'T PROVE ANYTHING.
WE'LL SUBPOENA THE CONTRACT.

HANDWRITING ANALYSIS WILL PROVE
THAT NASIM SIGNED IT.

YOU SWITCHED OUT
THOSE CONTRACTS, MR. PRASAD.

NASIM ALSO TOLD US

THAT YOU BROKERED THE DEAL
WITH NAVILET,

THAT YOU MET WITH GORDON SLOANE
A HALF A DOZEN TIMES.

YOU COOKED UP THIS SCAM
TOGETHER, DIDN'T YOU?

THIS IS RIDICULOUS.
IT WAS A WIN-WIN.

SLOANE SELLS A WAREHOUSE
FULL OF DRUGS THAT NOBODY WANTS,

AND YOU GET A BIG KICKBACK.

IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME
BEFORE WE FIND

THAT OFFSHORE ACCOUNT
AND LINK IT BACK TO YOU.

I SAW THAT SILVER MERCEDES
PARKED IN YOUR SPOT.

THAT DOES SEEM
A LITTLE BIT OBVIOUS, THOUGH,

DON'T YOU THINK?

AFTER THE REPORTER

THREATENED TO BLOW THE LID
OFF YOUR LITTLE SCHEME,

YOU REALIZED THAT YOU HAD TO
KILL HIM AND THE CONSUL.

I DIDN'T KILL ANYONE.

IF YOU'VE GOT EVIDENCE,
THEN YOU CHARGE ME. OTHERWISE --

NO ONE SAID ANYTHING
ABOUT CHARGING YOU.

THE STATE DEPARTMENT
WILL HAVE YOU EXPELLED.

I'M SURE
THE BANGLADESHI GOVERNMENT

WILL BE THRILLED
TO HAVE YOU BACK

WHEN THEY LEARN ABOUT YOUR PLAN
AND ALL THE LIVES IT COST.

OH, AND DON'T THINK
GORDON SLOANE IS GONNA HELP YOU.

HE'S GOT MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
TO SPEND ON LAWYERS,

AND THEY ARE ALL TELLING HIM TO
LET YOU TAKE THE FALL FOR THIS.

[ SIGHS ]

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

TESTIFY AGAINST SLOANE.

THE U.S. ATTORNEY
HAS ASSURED ME

THAT IF YOU COOPERATE,

YOU'LL SERVE A REDUCED SENTENCE
IN A U.S. PRISON.

[ SIGHS ]

LOOK...

I DIDN'T KNOW
THIS NEW STRAIN OF CHOLERA

WAS GOING TO SPREAD
TO MY COUNTRY --

CERTAINLY NOT THIS FAST.

EVENTUALLY, THE NEW STRAIN
MAY FIND ITS WAY TO SOUTH ASIA,

BUT IN MY OPINION,
IT'S NOT SOMETHING

YOUR GOVERNMENT
SHOULD WORRY ABOUT RIGHT NOW.

THE NUMORAL VACCINE WILL
MEET YOUR NEEDS. I ASSURE YOU.

BUT BACTRA-VOX
IS EFFECTIVE

AGAINST THE NEWER
CHOLERA STRAINS.

HOW CAN I JUSTIFY
BUYING ONE THAT ISN'T,

ESPECIALLY
IF THE PRICE IS THE SAME?

DON'T YOU WANT TO SELL ME
YOUR BEST PRODUCT?

WELL, THE TRUTH IS,

WE'VE HAD SOME PROBLEMS
PRODUCING THE NEW VACCINE.

THERE'S A BACKLOG.

IT'LL BE MONTHS
BEFORE IT'S AVAILABLE

IN THE QUANTITIES
THAT YOU NEED.

THEN I GUESS
I'LL HAVE TO SEE

WHAT YOUR COMPETITORS
ARE OFFERING.

HOLD ON.

IF YOU WERE WILLING
TO CONSIDER THE OLDER DRUG,

I MIGHT BE ABLE
TO OFFER YOU...AN INCENTIVE.

HOW MUCH?

$100,000 TO MAKE SURE
THE CONTRACT WENT THROUGH.

BUT I KNEW THE CONSUL
WOULDN'T SIGN THE CONTRACT.

HE HAD ALL OF MY RESEARCH
ON THE VACCINES.

SO YOU AND SLOANE
MADE THE CONSUL THINK

HE WAS BUYING
THE NEW VACCINE.

THEN YOU SWITCHED OUT THE
PAPERWORK TO COVER YOUR ASSES,

SO IT LOOKED LIKE HE KNOWINGLY
BOUGHT THE OLDER DRUG.

YOU AND NASIM WERE ALREADY
IN A RELATIONSHIP.

SHE WAS IN LOVE WITH YOU.

YOU KNEW THAT SHE'D FORGE
THE CONSUL'S SIGNATURE

WHEN YOU ASKED.

THEN THE DEAL WAS DONE.

YOU THOUGHT
YOU WERE IN THE CLEAR,

UNTIL THE REPORTER
SHOWED UP.

YES.

WHEN I OVERHEARD HIM
TALKING TO OUR SECURITY CHIEF,

I KNEW WE HAD A PROBLEM.

Mehta: I'M SORRY.

Scott: YOU'RE NOT GONNA LET ME
TALK TO THE CONSUL? FINE.

BUT YOU HAVE NO IDEA
WHAT YOUR BOSS HAS DONE.

HE TOOK A PAYOFF
TO SHIP A WORTHLESS VACCINE,

AND NOW THOUSANDS
OF YOUR PEOPLE ARE DEAD.

HE WAS ONTO THE SCHEME.

SO I CALLED GORDON SLOANE.

HE TOLD ME NOT TO WORRY,

THAT HE HAD A GUY
WHO COULD TAKE CARE OF IT.

BUT I THOUGHT THAT MEANT HE WAS
GOING TO BRIBE THE REPORTER.

I NEVER THOUGHT FOR A SECOND
HE WAS GOING TO KILL HIM.

Brooks:
LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT.

YOU THINK THAT YOU CAN CHARGE
MY CLIENT WITH TWO MURDERS

BECAUSE OF
A COFFEE-STAINED CONTRACT

THAT WAS REPLACED
WITH A CLEAN COPY?

IT WASN'T A CLEAN COPY.

IT WAS A COMPLETELY
DIFFERENT CONTRACT --

ONE THE CONSUL
NEVER WOULD'VE SIGNED.

REALLY?
THE CONSUL TELL YOU THAT?

NO, YOUR CLIENT MADE SURE
THAT WOULDN'T BE POSSIBLE

WHEN HE HAD
THE CONSUL KILLED.

THIS IS ABSURD.

MR. SLOANE WAS
AT A SHAREHOLDERS MEETING

WHEN THE CONSUL WAS KILLED.

THERE WAS AT LEAST 50 PEOPLE
WHO SAW HIM THERE.

IT'S A MEANINGLESS ALIBI.

YOU TOLD RASHID

THAT YOU HAD A GUY
WHO COULD TAKE CARE OF IT.

YOU HIRED A PROFESSIONAL.

WE DON'T HAVE TO
LISTEN TO THIS.

WE'RE GONNA PUT YOU IN JAIL
FOR FRAUD, SLOANE --

5, MAYBE 7 YEARS.
TAKE YOUR BEST SHOT.

AND AFTER YOU GET OUT,
WE'RE GONNA TURN YOU OVER
TO THE BANGLADESHIS.

YEAH.

THEY WANT YOU EXTRADITED TO FACE
FRAUD CHARGES IN THEIR COUNTRY.

NO REASON FOR US
TO STAND IN THEIR WAY.

THING IS ABOUT
THE BANGLADESHI COURT SYSTEM --

IT'S EXTREMELY UNDERSTAFFED.

IT COULD TAKE YEARS
FOR YOUR CASE TO COME TO TRIAL.

AND ALL THAT TIME, YOU'LL BE
SITTING IN A BANGLADESHI PRISON.

MUST BE ALL KINDS OF DISEASES
YOU COULD CATCH IN THERE.

BETTER MAKE SURE YOUR
VACCINATIONS ARE UP TO DATE.

CAN THEY DO THAT?

WHAT ARE YOU OFFERING?

YOUR CLIENT GIVES US THE NAME
OF THE KILLER HE HIRED

AND PLEADS GUILTY
TO SOLICITATION FOR MURDER.

WHY DON'T YOU GUYS
TAKE A FEW MINUTES?

[ DOOR OPENS ]

THINK HE'LL FOLD?

I THINK WE GOT
A PRETTY DECENT SHOT.

IT -- IT STILL DOESN'T
ADD UP.

WHAT?

RASHID TOLD US THAT
THE CONSUL HAD NOTHING
TO DO WITH THE SCHEME.

SO...
WHY DID SLOANE KILL HIM?

WELL,
MAYBE THE CONSUL CAUGHT ON

AFTER THE REPORTER CAME
TO SEE HIM THE FIRST TIME.

Australian:
YOU KNOW, THE CAPITALIST
ECONOMY IS DISGUSTING.

WHAT?

DANIEL, ARE YOU OKAY?

YOUR COUNTRY GIVES CORPORATIONS
THE SAME RIGHTS AS PEOPLE.

BUT PEOPLE ARE FLESH AND BLOOD,
MATE, YOU KNOW?

THEY'RE -- THEY'RE --
THEY'RE -- THEY'RE MOTHERS,

AND THEY'RE FATHERS
AND THEY'RE CHILDREN.

OUR DRUG SALESMAN
HAS BLOOD ON HIS HANDS.

BUT IT'S NOT THE CONSUL'S.

THE U.S. ATTORNEY
IS MOVING FORWARD

WITH NASIM'S PROSECUTION.

BUT DR. PIERCE AND I
DON'T THINK THAT SHE DID IT.

WE'RE WONDERING IF THERE'S
ANYTHING ELSE THAT YOU REMEMBER,

IF YOU CAN THINK
OF ANYONE ELSE

WHO MIGHT'VE WANTED
TO HURT THE CONSUL.

OH. UM...

I'M SORRY.
I-I CAN'T THINK OF ANYONE.

MR. MEHTA, WE UNDERSTAND THAT
YOU LOST A SON AND A DAUGHTER

IN THE CHOLERA EPIDEMIC.

HOW DID YOU KNOW THAT?

NASIM.

WE'RE VERY SORRY.

MY CHILDREN
HAD BEEN VACCINATED.

THEY WERE
SUPPOSED TO BE SAFE.

THE REPORTER TOLD YOU
THAT THE VACCINE

THE CONSUL SUPPLIED
WAS OUT OF DATE, DIDN'T HE?

I CAN ONLY IMAGINE
HOW YOU FELT.

AND THEN WHEN YOU FOUND OUT
THAT THE MAN YOU WORKED FOR

WAS RESPONSIBLE...
YOU MUST'VE BEEN OUTRAGED.

THAT'S WHY YOU TOLD US
ABOUT THE REPORTER --

SO THAT WE'D UNCOVER
THIS AWFUL CRIME.

BUT YOU DIDN'T MENTION
YOUR CHILDREN

BECAUSE YOU KNEW
THAT WOULD MAKE YOU A SUSPECT.

YOU SEEM LIKE AN HONORABLE MAN,
NOT THE KIND

THAT WOULD LET AN INNOCENT WOMAN
GO TO PRISON FOR MURDER.

NASIM IS A DAUGHTER, TOO.

HOW DO YOU THINK HER PARENTS
ARE GONNA FEEL IF THEY LOSE HER?

IF I TELL YOU
WHAT HAPPENED...

WILL THEY LET NASIM GO?

DEPENDS WHAT YOU TELL US.

AFTER THE REPORTER TOLD ME
ABOUT THIS...SCHEME...

I WENT TO RASHID.

I'M SHOCKED.

I DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING
ABOUT THESE KICKBACKS.

HOW COULD YOU
LET THIS HAPPEN?!

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA
HOW MANY PEOPLE DIED?!

I TOLD THE CONSUL OUR PEOPLE
DESERVE THE NEWEST VACCINES,

BUT HE WOULDN'T LISTEN
TO ME.

NOW I KNOW WHY.

HE CAN'T GET AWAY
WITH THIS.

THE CONSUL'S FAMILY
IS POWERFUL.

IF I GO TO OUR SUPERIORS,
NOTHING WILL COME OF IT,

AND WE'LL BE SENT HOME.

I THINK IT'S BEST

IF WE JUST FORGET
THIS CONVERSATION HAPPENED.

THAT'S WHEN I REALIZED
WHAT I HAD TO DO.

FOR THE CONSUL,
DEATH WAS QUICK.

FOR MY CHILDREN,
IT WAS NOT.

I DIDN'T REALIZE
NASIM HAD COME RUNNING AFTER HIM

AND HAD SEEN EVERYTHING.

I DELIVERED JUSTICE.

I CAN ACCEPT
THE CONSEQUENCES.

RASHID LIED TO YOU.

HE WAS THE ONE
WHO TOOK THE PAYOFF.

THE CONSUL --
HE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

ARE YOU SAYING
I KILLED AN INNOCENT MAN?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY.

THEY'RE TOUCHING
WITHOUT BEING SAPPY.

THEY'RE JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT
OF FUNNY.

THEY ARE PERFECT!

OF COURSE THEY ARE.
THEY'RE YOUR WORDS.

I FOUND THIS
AT THE BACK OF YOUR JOURNAL.

I DIDN'T CHANGE A THING.

THIS IS ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS
THAT I WROTE.

[ LAUGHS ]

I WAS AT A PANCAKE HOUSE
ON MILWAUKEE,

AND I WAS WAITING
FOR DONNIE TO SHOW UP,

AND THE WORDS JUST...
CAME TO ME.

THANK YOU.

THERE'S NO WAY I COULD'VE
FIGURED THIS OUT WITHOUT YOU.

OH,
DONNIE'S GONNA LOVE IT.

[ DOOR OPENS ]
[ LAUGHS ]

DOC?

YOU HAVE A VISITOR.

I'M GLAD
YOU'RE BOTH HERE.

I WANTED TO THANK YOU

FOR EVERYTHING
THAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME.

OF COURSE.

UH...IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME
ONE SECOND...

MAX, IS THERE A FAX MACHINE
AROUND HERE?

Max: SURE.

GOT TO GET THESE
TO FATHER PAT.

AGENT MORETTI IS
A SPECIAL WOMAN, ISN'T SHE?

HMM.

DR. PIERCE, IT IS NOT
MY PLACE TO SAY, BUT...

PERHAPS YOU SHOULD TELL HER
HOW YOU REALLY FEEL.

W--

[ SCOFFS ] I --

Daniel: THE POETS TELL US
TO LISTEN TO OUR HEART.

WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP.

[ LAUGHTER ]
SERIOUSLY.

HAVE YOU EVER LISTENED TO ONE
THROUGH A STETHOSCOPE?

IT'S JUST VALVES
OPENING AND CLOSING

AND OPENING AND CLOSING.

IT SOUNDS LIKE A SUMP PUMP.

IT MAY FEEL LIKE
OUR EMOTIONS ARE DOWN HERE,

BUT THEY'RE REALLY UP HERE,

KNOCKING AROUND
OUR LIMBIC SYSTEMS.

WHEN WE FACE THE HARD DECISIONS,
WE OFTEN HAVE TO CHOOSE

BETWEEN THE EMOTIONAL RESPONSE
AND THE RATIONAL ONE.

AND MORE OFTEN THAN NOT,
IT SEEMS EMOTION WINS THE DAY.

SOME OF US ACT OUT OF GREED.

OTHERS ARE MOTIVATED
BY RAGE OR REVENGE.

SO, IF OUR FEELINGS
ARE THAT DESTRUCTIVE,

MAYBE IT'S BETTER
IF WE HIDE THEM --

TAMP THEM DOWN,
KEEP THEM FROM BOILING OVER.

MAYBE.

BUT CAN WE REALLY
DENY OUR EMOTIONS FOREVER?

SOONER OR LATER,

WILL THEY BUBBLE
TO THE SURFACE...

AND FORCE US TO ACT?
