Original subtitles

Previously on Cross...

You got a witness that can clear LaDonna?

I heard my buddy call him "Night Train."

- Never seen him before. - You sure?

Is this the woman who came to see you?

[Ashford] She took a picture from behind this portrait.

Thanks to Senator Ashford, we now have a kill list.

What do we know on the new faces?

[Rodriguez] Nuri Mohindra runs the company

that provides the child labor force.

Griffith Stoker, DC fixer and lobbyist.

She's killing them in the order of the story.

- Which would make Jelani the Architect. - [Kayla] Mm-hmm.

The one who dreamed up the entire child labor scheme.

[Kayla] That makes him next on the kill list, right?

[gasps]

[screams]

[Kayla] A gun surfaced a few days ago,

ties to Bad Religion.

They're digging, and I need to make sure they don't find anything.

When you see Mastermind, let him know he can leave my family alone.

- Margaret, no! No! - [gunshot]

Maggie blew her head off.

She was always a little jumpy.

- Where's the footage? Where's the footage? - Kayla, stop!

Stop! Stop!

It's, uh-- The original documents are in a secure storage,

Thirty floors under your-your boss's office!

Just get that fucking thing out of me!

- [door closes] - [keys clink]

[footsteps]

[sighs]

[soft footsteps]

[suspenseful music playing]

Whoa.

[sighs] Fuck.

Tough break on the Durand case,

but great job on getting your hands on that video footage.

And now Bad Religion goes back to being a bad memory.

I never doubted you, by the way.

- Not even for a minute. - What is this?

This, my friend, is that "attagirl" you've been waiting for.

We just had to be sure, and now we are.

Are-are you telling me that all this...

...all this was just a test?

Well, that gun getting loose, we didn't count on that.

But once we saw the opportunity, yeah, we took advantage of it.

I pulled a murderer out of prison,

risked my career, lied to people I care about,

watched Margaret die in front of me for a fucking test?

And you passed.

Congratulations, the job is yours.

- What job? - You...

are gonna be the new assistant director in charge.

- Cheers. - Pass.

Excuse me?

I don't want ADIC. I want Mastermind.

He fucking used me to torture those soldiers.

Can we take a minute to just enjoy this?

How about a "You were right, Roy"?

About ADIC.

About Hammet.

About every damn thing.

Even about you being girlfriend material for Alex Cross.

Hold on.

Margaret was the only one who heard me say anything about girlfriend material.

[tense music playing]

Wow. So that means you talked to her after she killed herself.

Oh, wow. I mean, I should've seen it.

Her blowing her brains out like that on a call.

Margaret is Mastermind.

Don't go there.

I'll take ADIC.

And get the fuck out of my house.

Mm-hmm.

I'll see you Monday.

[door closes]

[mysterious music playing]

[line rings]

[phone vibrating]

[clucks tongue]

Yeah?

[Kayla] Hey. I need one last thing.

No more last things.

I know, but you're gonna like this one.

I promise.

[Akbar] Okay, thanks.

LPR located Hayes's truck.

Agents have followed it to Rollins Park.

We'll head there now. If you get an address, I'll be close.

John should take SWAT with him.

We don't want him waiting on them if we get a hit.

- Alex. - [Cross] What you got?

They're in the wind, but they left a bag of goodies.

Looks like Jelani's fingers.

And a photo with Durand, Helvig, Jelani.

Shit, all of them.

Maybe a decade or two old.

I get the fingers, but why the picture?

I don't think she left it for us.

[intriguing music playing]

As you know, the combined efforts of both the Metropolitan Police

and the FBI have thus far failed to apprehend the suspects,

Luz Porras and Donnie Hayes.

- [reporters clamoring] - My sources tell me

that the killer cut off three fingers from Jelani Amadou's hand,

and that is consistent with the signature of other recent killings.

Is that true, Agent McElhannon?

I don't know who your sources are, but I've made it very clear--

Is there an active serial killer on the loose?

And if there is, don't you have a responsibility to tell the public?

We don't currently know the whereabouts of Luz Porras,

but we have determined how she penetrated

the FBI security screen.

I mean, she paid me for samba lessons a few months ago.

I can't believe she stole my identity, too.

She was so nice.

The sniper who killed Agent Goff...

- [gunshot] - [screaming]

...is assumed to be Donnie Hayes.

We've also secured images of the sniper's truck and license plate.

Those images led to an FBI raid about an hour ago.

Unfortunately, the suspects fled before they could be apprehended.

After Amadou's execution, we believe

there are four remaining targets on Luz Porras's hit list.

Nuri Mohindra,

Griffith Stoker,

Nat Gancarz

and Lance Durand.

As we have failed to keep the other victims safe,

we've sequestered the four remaining targets

at Camp Harrison Army base.

If Luz wants them, she'll have to come through the U.S. Army and us.

Thank you, Detective.

So, what's next?

Well, Detectives Hardy and Akbar put together a, uh, summary

- of all the steps we've taken so far, sir. - Mm-hmm.

Detective Cross's summary was more than sufficient, Roy.

I already know what didn't work.

Chief, I think it's time for Metro to take Op-con.

I don't believe that my team has demonstrated the effectiveness

needed for this investigation.

Well, I can't argue with that.

And I don't think you want to be

the face of this investigation anymore, Director Hammet.

Regardless, MPD will be happy to do our part.

Detective Cross, I'm giving you the ball.

What's next?

We're all back together, just like the good old days.

Nothing about this is like the old days, Lance.

I heard about your husband, Nuri.

- I'm sorry. - He died four years ago.

I must have missed your card.

Just because we're all imprisoned here together

doesn't mean we need to pretend to be friends.

Thank God you said that.

So, look, we got the same text message you guys did today.

"Confess your crimes or pay 20 million."

I believe we all understand the implied "or else."

Do you think that's 20 million total or 20 each?

I think it's bullshit is what I think.

And I think Lance should pay it all, even if it's 80 million.

It's nothing to him.

Twenty million would leave me bankrupt.

I'd have no way to provide for my family.

Hey, guys, nobody's paying anything, okay?

We're safe here.

We're gonna sit tight and let law enforcement catch her.

"Sit tight"?

I have my family to get back to.

- Okay. - Okay, look.

I wasn't gonna remind us of this, but there's a list.

A kill list.

And you're next on the list, Nuri.

And then it's Griff, and then it's Nat, and then it's me.

I know all about this list. I just don't want to spend months here.

Yeah, it's not gonna take months, okay? I-I promise you that.

Come on, Lance, don't promise her that.

You still selling bullshit after all these years?

Yeah, I think I made you rich.

Right? I made you rich.

I made us all rich. Which part of that is bullshit?

I put us all together, but we all agreed to a plan, and that plan worked.

So we are not giving any money. We're gonna keep our money.

We're not gonna confess to a single thing.

And we're gonna sit behind these fine Americans with submachine guns,

- and we are gonna be fucking safe. - [Nuri] We're safe?

- Was Jelani safe? - Yeah.

[Griffith] Exactly.

Now, she's offering us a way out of this.

- We should at least consider the proposal. - You're right, we should.

Let's see. Helvig-- she has his money.

How'd that end for him, that deal?

Is she gonna treat you differently?

This is a Ben Franklin moment here, people.

We either hang together or we will surely hang separately.

- [phones ringing] - [quiet chatter]

- Hey. - Hey.

Hey, um...

Uh, things got-- they've been real crazy.

But you haven't updated me on the "Uncle Sam Special" you were dealing with.

- What's the word? - Oh, yeah, that, um...

That's-that's all taken care of. I'm, uh, in the clear.

Hey, look, I-- Do you--

[sighs] Do you notice something about this?

Uh, it's-it's the whole crew.

It doesn't tell us anything we don't already know.

Right, and Luz would know that.

So why would she leave it there for us to find?

Well, maybe the question is: What does it tell Nuri?

Or any of the survivors. What's the message for them?

I don't know, but I'm pretty sure she wants us to deliver it to them,

which means we shouldn't do that for her.

Boss.

Or maybe that's exactly what we should do.

And see what their reactions tell us. [chuckles]

And knock that "boss" shit off.

- Is that an order, sir? - [phone vibrating]

[suspenseful music playing]

Please, come in.

I made the Bamieh Zoolbia yesterday.

My mother's recipe.

- Coffee? - Thank you.

You don't have to be nervous, Sandra.

Everything's gonna be fine.

I know.

I believe in you, but I'm not sure I'm cut out for this.

You don't have to be.

- Is it ready? - Yes.

It's all set.

Password and log-in are at the bottom.

You haven't told anybody about this, have you?

No, of course not.

But...

I think someone from work saw me leave with it.

You sure?

No. I can talk to her to make sure. Should I?

No.

I don't think it's an issue.

That was delicious, by the way. We're gonna need more of those.

Absolutely. [chuckles]

[tense music playing]

[indistinct chatter]

All right, where are the animals?

They're outside grazing.

What do we have on the extortion text they all got?

Burner number.

Bounced through so many hubs we couldn't source it.

And we confiscated all the phones once the targets arrived.

Wi-Fi signal, cell signal, all that's jammed.

No calls in or out, except--

Except?

Well, before Marco could jam the signal,

they each received another text.

[Cross] One of you is gonna get a call from Luz Porras at 4:00 p.m.

- My guess is she wants an answer. - [Lance] Hmm.

None of us are giving her anything.

Anyone else?

We have nothing to say.

There's no crime, so there's no need to confess.

- No crime? - Mm-hmm.

Then tell me about this.

- [chuckles] - [Kayla] Stoll's Steakhouse.

Twenty-some years ago. What was the occasion?

It's a get together.

We had lots of dinners back then.

[Cross] Then why did Olivia Ashford hide a photo

of this dinner behind a portrait?

It's a warning.

She knows we were there.

- Warning you about what? - Nuri.

Look, we know everyone on Luz's list played a role.

We know about the child labor.

I think she wants you to answer to more than that.

None of us have anything to say.

Alex.

All right. Play it that way.

See you at 4:00 p.m.

Lance.

Nuri's the weak link.

I think that Luz's call will really get her to open up.

It's a good idea.

- Hey, wait, hey, hey. - Yes?

What's up? You good? What-What's wrong?

Everything is just great with me, boss.

We still doing that bullshit?

What, you're not my boss now?

Okay, I didn't ask them to take the task force away from you.

Oh, what, you think I campaigned for this?

I think you've been campaigning for yourself your whole life.

- Wow. - I think it's who you are.

- It's-it's why you win. - Oh, okay.

Okay? Just stop being so defensive and own it.

- No, yeah, you know what? - Yeah?

You know what? I do like being out in front.

- It's always felt right to me. - Mm-hmm.

Maybe I like it too much.

Yeah, maybe you do.

It's just hard being the one in front of you as you're running them over.

Honestly, I don't even know how John puts up with it.

I told you I was fine being second on this, and I meant it.

And I believe you.

But now you're the boss, and I have to ask for permission to do my job.

Right.

[mysterious music playing]

[device beeps]

[phone vibrating]

Oh, crap, it's mine.

Now, remember what I told you. Do not antagonize her.

We need her talking as long as possible.

Two minutes at least for the trace.

Fine, two minutes. We can do it.

- [phone beeps] - [Lance clears throat]

Uh, hello, Ms. Porras.

We're-- we are all gathered together.

- [chuckles] Just one big happy. - [Luz] Good.

Have you made a decision?

How do we know you will act in good faith?

Was it in good faith when you murdered my mother?

That never fucking hap--

That's a serious accusation, Ms. Porras.

Do you have evidence of this crime to show us?

Nice to hear from you again, Alex.

I was sorry to hear about your car accident.

In answer to your question, no, we're not in a courtroom,

so they can't hide behind lawyers or corrupt judges.

It's just me.

And I don't need proof for what I know to be true.

Okay, that sounds to me like you have no proof

because there were no crimes,

so there is no need for a confession.

Also, we are not giving you any money.

Really?

- Is Nuri there? - [Nuri] Yes, I'm here.

Did Cross show you the photo?

Are you thinking about how you're gonna explain

to your granddaughter how you paid for her education?

Or are you gonna take that to the grave?

Because I know everything.

And there's way more than a photo to prove it.

All right, all right, I'll do it.

Just-just give me time to liquidate everything.

- [hushed] Shut your goddamn mouth. - [whispers] Fuck off.

Sorry, Nuri.

Everyone has to agree to the deal or there is no deal.

Please, Lance.

Absolutely not.

Nat?

No.

Griff?

Sorry, Nuri.

Are you surprised, Nuri?

One more question, okay? And then I'm gonna go.

Have you heard of this amazing tech

that allows doctors from anywhere in the world

to monitor their patients' health?

A woman with a faulty pacemaker in Virginia

can get a wake-up call

from a doctor in Mumbai.

- Time to wake up, Nuri. - Jam the signal!

- Jam the signal! - [device beeping]

Jam it now!

- Get a medic! Get a medic! Get a medic! - [urgent chatter]

[man] Medic!

Medic!

[Griffith] Goddamn it, Lance!

You said we'd be safe!

[medic] Excuse me.

[dramatic music playing]

[sinister music playing]

[Gonzalez] The land of the flowers.

The home of a brave young woman named Xochitl.

[Cross] Her victims are all a part of this story.

[De Lackner] Which would make Jelani the Architect.

[Kayla] What time's that wedding?

[Lance] I have no clue who would chop off fingers.

[Cross] Jam it now!

- [Gonzalez] A demon more fearsome than the last. -¡Policia!

[Jannie screams]

- Nana! - [laughs] Oh, my sweetie.

[laughs] Oh, God, I missed that smile.

I missed you more.

Well, I missed you most.

Ah. Mm.

All right.

- Nana, you're back. - Ah, yes, baby.

I missed you so much.

Oh, and you must be Berto.

[chuckles]

So good to finally meet you in person.

[chuckles]

Thank you for having me

in your home.

[Nana Mama] Sweetie, it's my pleasure.

Alex, why are you on the couch

when you got a comfortable bed of your own upstairs?

- I got in late. - Got in late,

working hard, work even harder and fell asleep. [chuckles]

Mm-mm. [chuckles]

Is something burning?

The biscuits!

[Nana Mama] Damon is cooking breakfast?

What happened to Elle?

I thought she was gonna help out while I was gone.

She's, uh...

She's-she's not, uh, coming around anymore.

[sighs, scoffs]

Now, see, that's what you need

- to be working late on. - [Damon] Nana!

- Let me go help them with those biscuits. - Yeah. Mm-hmm.

[pensive music playing]

[Griffith] You're probably wondering why I reached out.

I'm done running, except from the FBI.

I ditched my detail in Pennsylvania.

My guy says I can put the 20 million together in 48 hours.

I don't think I'll have much trouble

getting Lance and Nat to agree to your deal.

I wanted to seal this face-to-face.

So we're good?

We'll be good when everyone's money is in my account.

You know, you look so much like your mother.

Gabriela was always--

I don't want to hear her name come out of your mouth.

It wasn't personal, Ms. Porras.

If it wasn't personal, I wouldn't be here.

[eerie music playing]

[phone vibrating]

- [phone beeps] - Griff, you okay?

[Griffith] Still breathing and looking to stay that way.

I told Luz Porras I'd take her deal.

And I told her you and Nat would take the deal, too.

Wait.

Well, you just made a promise that you can't keep.

We'll see. Come see me at the cabin my uncle left me.

Come alone. No need for the FBI or Nat.

[line clicks]

[whispers] Fuck!

[Nat] Was that her?

No, that was, uh...

That was Griff. I got to see him.

- I'll get the car. - Uh-uh.

Just me.

[door opens]

[Nana Mama] There he is.

[laughs] Come here.

Give me a hug.

- Ah. - Hey.

Mm.

Sit down.

Let me cook you something.

If I don't do the shopping in this house, there's nothing but snacks and desserts.

Jesus.

I've been talking to LaDonna.

A-Alex told me she-she reached out.

You know I sat right here in this chair when you told me she was dead?

That's all I could think about when I met her.

All those years you've been lying to me.

I didn't have a choice, John.

I used to be jealous of the kids who would send cards to their moms in prison.

I didn't even have that.

And all along, she lived right here in the neighborhood.

Doesn't matter where she was.

There was no way I was gonna let her get close to you.

[stammers] She only showed up when she wanted money, not you.

I know that's a hard truth, but it's-it's a real one.

And I had the right to know that.

When you told me she was dead, it broke my heart.

I broke it one time. She would have broken it every single day.

Maybe so, but I would've had a mom.

One that belonged to me.

We belonged to you. We still do, John.

I know that.

Look, you took me in, Nana, and I will always be grateful.

But being grateful every damn day, feeling like you got to prove yourself

to the people that took you in, that they made a good choice,

- that's a burden, too. - John...

J-J... John!

[door opens, closes]

Hey, Griffith Stoker just put everything he owns on the market.

He's making a deal with Luz.

I would. Shit, he might live.

Well, then why isn't he picking up his phone?

And why did he ditch his FBI detail somewhere near Gettysburg?

- You think he's running? - Maybe.

Or maybe he's just doing something he doesn't want anyone to know about.

You got any hunches?

How long now?

My C.I. says Tyson Knight, aka "TK," moved in with her a year ago.

But the landlord said he's been in and out of LaDonna's house for years.

LaDonna didn't just know TK. They were a thing.

Maybe they're wrong, you know?

Maybe when we find TK--

Nobody knows where this guy is?

All our leads have come up cold.

[sighs] Been a long time since I've been played like this.

I'm sorry, John.

[vehicle pulls up outside]

[vehicle door opens, closes]

- [knock on door] - [door opens, closes]

[Griffith] Lance, come right in.

[Lance] The door's unlocked.

You got rid of your FBI detail.

It's almost like you got a death wish, Griff.

[Griffith] Well, I shook those useless assholes

the minute I decided to give her every damn thing she wants.

Because no. No, Lance, I don't have a death wish.

Let's take a minute. Let's just think about that

- for a second. - That's a minute I don't have.

Because I'm next up on her list of the damned.

- So, you just gonna let her win? - I know when I'm beat, Lance.

You know I've had one hell of a life.

I lied, I cheated, I fucked my way to where I am today.

I even cosigned

- on your shady child labor scheme. - [Lance] Which is why I think

you owe it to the world to get

- the Prosperity Seed out to-- - [groans] The world, the world.

I'm so tired of hearing you speak for the world like you're the damn messiah.

We took the money, we ate the foie gras.

we drank the Krug, we slept on the silk sheets,

and now the bill's come due.

And I've made my peace with paying it, and you need to do the same thing.

Well, that is not gonna

- fucking happen, I can tell you that. - [Griffith] You know what?

I thought you'd say that.

So sit down while I play my very last card.

Do you remember the last time when we were all together?

After Gabriela Porras turned down our money?

Yeah. So what?

I recorded it.

[suspenseful music playing]

Holy shit.

[Griffith] And before you get any ideas, my brother has a copy

and distinct instructions if anything was ever to happen to me.

[Lance] This is bullshit. And even if you did, you were there, too.

So if that got out, we all go down.

Well, it's not gonna get out because... [sighs]

you're gonna pay her.

No, I'm not. And now I need that recording.

Take a minute, Lance.

You think through your options until you realize you don't have any.

I'll wait.

[Lance] Don't you pat me like a fucking dog!

[groans]

- [Griffith] Fuck! - [Lance] Sorry, Griff, but I need

- that fucking recording. - Ah.

I didn't think you had it in you.

There's a whole lot more there if you don't tell me where it is!

Fuck you!

[scoffs] Fuck me?

Fuck me?

Funny.

Fuck you!

[Griffith groans]

[Lance] Tell me where it is.

- [Griffith] Please. Lance-- - [Lance shouts]

- Tell me... where... it is! - [squishing thuds]

[panting]

[dramatic music playing]

How did you know he would do that?

I know them.

Oh, shit.

[Lance panting]

[phone beeps, line rings]

Look, Nat, stop whatever you're doing. I fucked up.

There is incriminating audio of all of us, and Griff gave a copy to his brother.

What's his name again?

Alan? Yes, Alan.

We have to find him.

Right now. As fast as you can.

Okay. Bye.

[line beeps]

[gasps]

Donnie, get that bag so we can get going.

[Lance panting]

We need that recording.

- No, we don't. - [Lance groaning]

We already have a plan. Your plan.

[Donnie] No, she's right.

If we get the tape from Griff's brother, we can prove the whole conspiracy.

And then we're done.

[Luz] That was Griffith's joker's insurance,

and it should be ours.

This is a mistake.

But if we're gonna do this, it's got to be me and Donnie.

- Your face is everywhere. - No, I'm coming.

She's right. We got this.

Get us an address for Griff's brother, Alan.

I want to do this for you.

Okay. All right.

Took me ten years to earn that.

I'm proud of you, baby.

You know what I learned in those ten years?

[LaDonna] Hmm?

When someone was lying to me.

Like when they would look away or breathe different

or they try too hard to pull me in.

[sighs]

You played me, LaDonna. You played me real good.

I didn't kill anybody, John.

- I swear to you. - No, no, I-I believe that.

But are you still gonna hang on that lie about not knowing TK?

I told...

Yeah, okay.

I had to tell you that so you wouldn't think that I killed anyone.

No.

What you did was you found the son that you kicked to the curb a few decades ago,

softened him up enough that maybe, just maybe,

he would give a shit about you again

and then hope that he would help you find a way out of this trouble!

I can see how you'd think that, but let me tell you what's real.

What we've been building back together means the world to me, John.

The world.

[pensive music playing]

I think about all the time we have to...

catch up.

Reminds me of why I left you in the first place.

[voice breaking] I thought God didn't give me the strength to feel that deep.

Now I know how wrong I was.

Now I know I can't get that time back with you.

But I will take any second

and every second you'll give me.

[sniffles]

[Sampson sighs]

[sniffles]

You just don't know how bad I needed to hear that.

We picked up TK this morning.

He's looking at first-degree murder charges.

Now, you're on the hook for aiding and abetting after the fact.

But I can get you out of this.

A.D.A. Kowaleski will drop it to obstruction

if you testify against TK.

I'm not gonna be the one to put my man away.

No, no. That's gonna be me.

He did the murder.

He's gonna do the time. Ain't no getting around that.

Then I want to confess.

To what?

I did it. Just me.

Look, we-we already have a witness that tells a different story.

[scoffs] Well, it'll be their word against mine.

You willing to do that kind of time to protect him?

If I have to.

What happened to all that...

[scoffs softly] What happened to all that time

that we were trying to build things back together?

I want a lawyer.

Get her out of there.

[door opens]

He wasn't running. He was liquifying his assets.

He was giving her what she wanted. Why did she kill him?

Be careful, Donnie.

I will.
