Previously on "Sleeper Cell"...

I'm Carli, by the way.

My name is Steve.

I got a surprise for you.

Hey, pal.

She's a professor at Berkeley.

That's why I joined the army... to piss her off.

Thomas, heh.

They customized that truck to look like an LAFD mobile emergency command vehicle.

Faris al-Fari. We know who he is.

His real name is Saad bin Safwan.

He's got a wife and a daughter in London.

Samia bin Safwan? I'm with the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

What's this all about?

Dodger stadium

When the vehicle's on the field, we'll detonate it,

releasing a phosgene cloud that will blanket the entire stadium within seconds.

Hey, Marcus, guess what? We're going to a baseball game tomorrow!

There are two other units of the faithful in two other cities.

They will carry out simultaneous attacks

on baseball stadiums. The death toll could rise up to 150,000.

15th of shaban is only 2 days away.

Our tactical teams will be in place two days from now

for a full-scale assault on the warehouse.

Darwyn, you are using the wrong calendar.

The 15th of shaban is tomorrow.

Farik.

I don't mean to interrupt. But, uh,

everything's ready.

Today's the day.

You know, as September 11th was approaching,

I was debating with myself

as to where I would be of most use to God's cause in the aftermath...

Karachi or Riyadh.

In Karachi, I would help our brothers overthrow the American puppet regime

and put the hand of the faithful

on a nuclear trigger.

And Riyadh?

In Riyadh, I would help my

old friends and neighbors drag the royal family onto the streets,

where they would receive the justice they deserve

and consequently gain control of half of the oil on earth.

So, where'd you end up?

Doesn't matter.

There was no history made in either place.

It turns out, the spectacle of

19 faithful brothers

slaughtering 3,000 crusader enemies

the greatest attack on American soil in modern times...

it wasn't enough to put steel into the spine of our Muslim nation.

Let's hope that the spectacle

of 20 or so faithful brothers slaughtering

150,000 baseball-loving infidels

will do the trick.

Yeah, let's hope.

Come on.

If we spend our time going over what's led us to this point,

we're not gonna have the time we need to make an intelligent decision

regarding where we go from here.

Where we go from here? Are you kidding me, Frances?

Where the hell do you think we're gonna go?

We're gonna call the mayor of Los Angeles and his police chief...

With all due respect to the department of

homeland security, we should not be doing that.

Not until we have no choice,

not until the very last possible moment. Because every moment up until then

is a chance for us to find out what the hell is really going on up in New York

and right here in D.C.

You want to risk thousands,

maybe tens of thousands of lives for a grand prize that may not even exist?

We have to alert the mayor and the governor.

And after you talk to Villaraigosa and Arnold.

What are you gonna tell the mayors and the governors of New York and D.C.?

That Los Angeles is more important than their cities?

That we're willing to leverage their populations in exchange for L.A.'s?

Think about the east African embassies,

September 11th,

Madrid,

the London underground. These people always use multiple coordinated attacks.

And you're forgetting something of vital importance.

We have details of the L.A. attack plan, including the date.

And we still have more time.

Your undercover...

what's the latest information he's given you regarding these upcoming attacks?

We don't have any more intel, ma'am...

not yet.

Why not?

I'm afraid we haven't had any contact with our U.C.

for the last 24 hours.

So, when do we get our orders? - When the time comes.

All right, I need your pagers, your cellphones, your calling cards...

everything, right here.

Salaam alaikum.

If you are watching this now,

it is because I and my fellow mujahideen

have successfully struck another blow against American arrogance,

tyranny, conceit, and greed.

For the past few months, my brothers and I have fought side by side

to deliver a blow to the heart of America on its home front.

As we strike a blow in the battle to end unjust humiliation,

subjugation, and devasta...

I dedicate my sacrifice to Allah

and the freedom of Muslims everywhere

from their oppressors

and to the memory of my family, whose unjust deaths

will finally be balanced on the scales of universal justice.

I want to thank...

my family, my mom and dad, for

failing so miserably as parents that I was forced to escape

the coddled mediocrity of America

and find a noble and spiritual purpose as a holy soldier of God.

You know what? Boring. What I want to say?

In English.

"Fuck you.

Fuck all of you."

Today, my actions are a message to Muslims

here in the United States and all over the world.

My fight is your fight.

And together, we must stand strong.

And to my Muslim brothers who don't

understand my actions...

everything I've done...

and everything I'm about to do, I do for Islam.

Cut.

That's a wrap.

This is gonna require a principals' meeting.

And, like it or not, we're gonna have to bring FEMA in on this

to start the consequence-management ball rolling

to prepare for the worst-case scenario.

Along those same lines,

I've asked professor Davis

from our national biological and chemical

threat assessment center to join us

so we can at least have a primer on what we might be dealing with.

Professor?

Well... it isn't good.

Uh, if this report is accurate

a-and there really are 10,000 gallons of liquid phosgene

wired to detonate with the amount of explosives listed,

depending on the exact nature of the target

and the number of people located there

and the population density downwind

as well as the wind speed and wind direction at the time of detonation,

y-y-you could be looking at 10,000 casualties.

With, uh, several thousand dead in the first 24 hours.

Perhaps many, many more.

Hey, babe, are you excited about the game?

Go, team! - Go, team!

I think we got some awesome seats.

Maybe we'll catch a foul ball, huh?

Yeah! - Yeah!

Agent Serxner?

Any word from D.C.?

Nothing yet, but

I thought I should wake you.

No luck on those numbers Farik was dialing.

He wasn't on the phone long enough to geolocate

the other side of either conversation.

And still no word from al-Sayeed.

Probably nothing new. Otherwise he would've contacted us.

Or he can't get clear.

It's been over a day.

What's the matter, Tommy?

Jealous because you don't get to dress up like a fireman?

Asshole.

When CNN gets this tape,

our faces will be broadcast to the world for all our Muslim brothers to see.

Ilija.

Your ticket.

How are we doing getting a hard-line camera into the warehouse?

It's risky, but we're giving it a shot.

Got a ghost team working on it right now.

You know,

in the year 627, prophet Muhammad sallAllahu alayhi wasallam

was facing a pivotal moment

where the future of Islam itself would be determined.

Meccan pagans

were gathering a force of 10,000 men to attack the holy city of Medina

with the intent of destroying Islam forever.

Our people were outnumbered three to one,

and it seemed as though there was no hope.

But one Muslim,

a Persian convert by the name of Salman, was able to think outside the box.

He persuaded the prophet sallAllahu alayhi wasallam to dig

a trench around the city of Medina

with the intent of blocking the enemy's attack.

That was never heard of before then

a totally new tactic.

The meccans...

eventually returned home in defeat.

This is the ultimate example of how our people,

outnumbered, facing impossible odds,

were able to use their ingenuity...

to defeat the unbelievers.

And history...

is going to repeat itself... today.

- What the hell was that? - Son of a bitch.

What the fuck was that?

That was the sound of our trench being dug.

It's the paint factory down the street.

Jesus. Look at that.

That's gonna be a ton of toxic smoke.

God damn it.

This place is gonna be swarming with fire

department, LAPD, hazmat... you name it.

What should we do, sir?

Dial 911. And, everybody else, keep your eyes open.

That's it! Let's go! We got to move!

The tactical team isn't here.

We still haven't got the okay from Washington yet.

It's a decoy, the whole goddamn thing.

They customized that truck to look like

an LAFD mobile emergency command vehicle.

Now, let's go!

All right, go. Go, go, go, go, go!

Get a tactical team down here right now. Call LAPD.

All LAPD units, Los Angeles sheriff's department,

and California highway patrol, respond...

Use extreme caution. The occupants are armed and extremely dangerous.

Priority 1 dispatch.

All units, be on the lookout for a Los Angeles

fire department emergency response command vehicle.

Use extreme caution.

All available LAPD units and central bureau,

converge on Hoover and 16th immediately.

Fuck!

So, this explosion draws first responders

police and fire department, huh?

Away from the stadium while we

execute our attack.

When the call comes in for help, we'll be the first on the scene.

Edgar. Hope you're going to give me some good news.

What?

Coordinate with the locals and keep me informed.

What is it?

Afraid we don't need the president to weigh in on a decision anymore.

Why not?

They drove out of the building and off our surveillance radar

under cover of an explosion and a three-alarm

fire at a factory down the street.

Frances...

you have to brief the president right now.

That's why we got no GPS signal from Darwyn's phone.

It's in there.

It's not so bad, is it?

To die for something you believe in?

I wouldn't know. I've never died before.

I know you think I'm a loser, Ilija.

But today...

I'm gonna prove myself to you...

and to everyone.

Special delivery.

Au revoir...

you French fuck.

Have a nice day...

American pussy.

On September 11th, I remember thinking the world had changed.

The war had begun, and I knew then that the future of Islam lay in the balance,

so I had to choose what kind of Muslim I was gonna be.

Was I gonna sit back and watch events unfold

or was I gonna take action

destroy those who wanted to destroy my faith?

The holy Qu'ran says,

"those who believe fight in the way of God

and those who disbelieve fight in the way of Satan."

"So fight against the friends of Satan."

And that's what I've done.

That's what I'm doing...

today.

It's game 3 in the dodgers versus the reds.

Tickets are now on sale for the

doubleheader next week against the padres.

It's okay. You can go.

Come on, sweetie, let's go find our seats.

Right here.

Excuse us. Thank you.

I'm sitting here.

I know you are. Ready to catch a ball?

Hey, look at the field. Look how big it is.

Yay, dodgers! Yay, dodgers!

Playing third...

When is the game gonna start?

In the outfield, Dante Cruz, Ryan Werth, and Tony Valentin.

Please rise for Alexa Melo singing the national anthem.

Sweetie, put your hand right there. Yeah, right there.

Roger that, dispatch. This truck is clear.

Any luck?

No, not yet.

Every cop in the city is looking for that vehicle,

but L.A. is a big fuckin' place.

Sir? Ma'am? Over here.

What's that?

It's a Qu'ran.

Jesus. It's from Darwyn.

It's a dodger game.

Field teams, with me!

I need an interagency conference call set up immediately.

I need the word put out overall emergency frequencies, LAPD, S.W.A.T.,

and as many field agents as we can spare

to converge on Dodger stadium immediately.

We need to set in motion the cancellation

of the Washington national game

and either the Yankees or the Mets, who's ever playing today.

Just cancel every goddamn game in this country!

Alert stadium security. Get them pictures of the cell members now.

Chopper 13 en route to Dodger stadium.

Come on, move it!

Hey, buddy, get to the right! Come on!

Get out of the way!

Go around him! What, are you stupid?!

Ketchup or mustard, baby?

Ketchup.

- You want a drink? - Smoothie.

- You want chips? - Okay.

Okay.

You excited about the game?

Yeah. I really like the Dodgers.

Marcus!

Marcus!

Get out of here!

Marcus!

Sir?

There was an explosion at the stadium, it caused a fire.

That's it. That's it. That's the plan.

Fire at the stadium, who do they call?

The fire department.

And who shows up?

Farik.

All guests, please evacuate onto the field safely and slowly.

Everyone, please stay calm.

People, please stay calm.

Please proceed...

Hello?

It's a... wrong number.

Marcus!

Marcus!

Marcus!

Don't panic, everyone.

All guests, please evacuate onto the field safely and calmly.

Everyone, please stay calm.

People, please stay calm.

Sir, we are following our emergency protocol.

I'm telling you to adjust the protocol and get those fans off the field.

Nobody fires till I say so.

One stray bullet hits those phosgene barrels,

we are in a world of shit.

Christian, pull over here. This is where you guys get out.

Tommy and Ilija,

they're blocking the western approach, you guys will take the eastern approach.

Do not allow yourself to be captured.

You kill as many of those crusader motherfuckers as possible.

Do you understand?

Yeah.

Allah akbar.

This is awesome, man. We can hold off an army with this shit.

Fucking infidels!

- What's your problem? - It's over.

Let go.

What the fuck are you doing?

I'm FBI.

What?!

Get out of the way!

Get out of the way!

Move out of the way!

Stop it!

- It's over. - Fuck you!

You were one of us!

No. It's over.

Fucking traitor!

No.

You're the traitor.

Target vehicle is traveling east along the stadium access road.

He's going for the center-field gates! Go, go, go, go!

He's headed for the center-field gates!

Go, go, go, go!

- Darwyn, you all right? - I'm all right.

Turn off that truck!

We have you surrounded! Come out with your hands up!

Ilaha illa Allah.

Ilaha illa Allah!

No! N-o-o-o-o!

Show your hands and exit the vehicle!

Move!

Stop running, or I shoot!

No!

Give me your phone.

- Yeah? - We get him?

Yeah, we got him.

I think he hit the detonator, but the truck didn't blow.

I slipped the batteries out of the detonator

this morning back at the warehouse.

Listen, Farik's got his sat phone on him right now.

It's in his shirt pocket.

He traded calls with the other two cells this morning.

I'm on it.

He's got a sat phone in his pocket. Check his pockets for a sat phone.

Take it to signal intelligence now.

I guess the crash loosened the wiring on your C4.

You are fucked, Saad.

My name is Yossi Amran.

I'm gonna need a doctor...

And a lawyer.

Radical Islamic terrorists...

Breaking news from Dodger stadium.

There has been a major incident at today's game.

Further reports have not yet...

Police and FBI officials won't confirm reports

of a failed attack at Dodger stadium today,

but sources say it appears a terrorist cell may be responsible.

Put your hands up and come out of the vehicle!

Here's the satellite phone!

Downloading SIM card.

Obtaining call history.

Shipping call history to NSA.

They've got the numbers.

They're attempting to geolocate last contacts.

Put your hands up and exit the vehicle!

Lynne, it's me... Tommy.

No, no, I'm not calling to ask for more money. I...

no, I just, um

I was just wondering how your day was going.

Move slowly and exit the vehicle!

Yeah? Good.

Have you, uh...

Have you seen dad?

Yeah, I know.

Well, look, when you see him, just tell him

tell him I said hi.

Come out of the vehicle with your hands in the air!

I'm sorry, Lynne, I...

Shit.

I got to go.

I just wanted to...

I just wanted to say that...

Put your hands up and exit the vehicle!

Keep listening, mom. There's something I want you to hear.

There's something I want you to hear.

Thomas?

Thomas! What's happening?!

Thomas?

Thomas, are you there? Can you hear me? What's happening?!

Thomas!

Police! Freeze!

Put your hands on your head!

Don't fuckin' move!

Anyone who needs medical assistance, there are ambulances in the parking lot

directly outside the stadium gates.

Ladies and gentlemen, everything is under control.

Excuse me.

How you doin'?

I don't know.

Where's Farik?

I took out his kneecap.

Figured he was worth more to us alive.

There are two other cells.

The sat phone worked.

We got New York, but someone tipped off D.C.

But, you know, the main thing is, the attacks were stopped, all three of them.

Yeah.

I think this is yours.

That was a smart move.

Just glad you caught it.

We did it.

You did it.

Hey, buddy, can you tell us what your mommy looks like?

Hang on.

Hey. Marcus.

Darwyn!

I told you this before. He's got brown hair,

and he's wearing a baseball cap. He's...

I don't know, he's like...

he's got green eyes, and he's wearing a Hawaiian shirt.

I just turned around, there was the explosion, and he wasn't there.

Look, there goes your mommy. Gayle.

Downtown, an explosion at a paint factory created a three-alarm fire.

While fire and rescue workers hurried to the scene,

another explosion erupted at Dodger stadium.

The standoff between an armed suspect and police...

Mitchell, you're gonna be able to move forward

with the first significant criminal prosecution

of Islamic terrorists since September 11th.

Excuse me.

There is no way on God's green earth that

anyone involved in this case can go to trial

unless you want to see your undercover agent facing multiple criminal charges

and watch the bureau be accused of having sat

back and allowed one of their sworn officers

to participate in the commission of multiple

homicides and various other felonies.

What are you saying, Frances?

I'm saying the FBI can take all the credit for capturing these assholes,

but you'll turn custody of them over to the department of defense immediately.

They are all going to be detained, none of them are going to be charged,

and all of this becomes classified.

I'm sorry, but I speak for the president, and that's how it's gonna be.

Under the laws of war, the terrorist activities

of these men and the direct association

of their leaders with Al Qaeda make them all nonprivileged belligerents.

For this reason, all those individuals taken into federal custody yesterday

in Los Angeles and New York city have been

turned over to the department of defense.

Now I would like to introduce special agent

Alim Saleh of the FBI, who will brief you

on the status of the targets of this investigation.

Agent Saleh?

Several individuals are still at large.

Target number one's true identity remains unknown at this time,

but he has been operating under the name Julio Torres.

Last seen in Washington, D.C.

He is a middle eastern male, approximately 40 years of age,

5'10", 165 pounds.

Target number two was last seen in the city of Los Angeles.

He has, up until now, been operating under his real name, Ilija Korjenic,

though that is highly unlikely to still be the case.

He is a white male,

5'11", 170 pounds,

a Bosnian citizen, and speaks with a Bosnian accent.

Carli.

Steve?

I was wondering if you might know a place that I could stay...

just for a little while.

I want to thank... my family, my mom and dad, for

failing so miserably as parents that I was forced

to escape the coddled mediocrity of America and

find a noble and spiritual purpose as a holy soldier of God.

My name is Lynne Allen Emerson.

I stand here before you

grieving not just for the death of my son,

but for my country, as well.

Because of the tragic impact

this government's policies have had on my husband and I,

we will be filing suit and seeking legal remedies

for our pain and suffering

from the pentagon...

Who wrongfully persecuted my son...

during his short time as an American soldier,

and from the white house, where these horrible policies originated.

Thank you very much.

Think any of this makes a difference?

You think you won?

You may have won a battle...

but war will go on.

Sami!

Samia!

Samia!

Samia!

Samia!

Samia!
