All language subtitles for The Blacklist S02E18 E

What the hell?

Just something
to help you relax.

You really don't have
any idea who I am,

Do you,
Mr. Salinger?

Save your breath, sweetheart.

You're gonna need it.

It's me. I'm back.

How was chicago?
Oh, god, you know,

All these conferences
are such a waste of time.

You, how was your day?
How was work?

Fine.

Except for Carlton.
Again?

He keeps leering at me,
gives me the creeps.

He's your boss.
Sooner or later you have
to report him to HR.

I'm so glad you're back.

I have a surprise for you.

You're giving me a drawer?

Only if you want it.

I mean, it it's too soon...

I just thought
it might be nice.

What you're
asking me to do...

I appreciate that
you turned yourself in.

You came back for me.

Liz, I'm in danger.

I need the passports...
I can't!

I just can't.

Liz, please!

Turning myself in
to save you, saved me.

And not because
the judge let me go.

I've been running
since I was 14.

It's all I've known.

And in that moment,
when the judge let me go,

I thought,
"maybe there's a world

"where I don't have to run,

"where I could just..."

These germans want me dead,
my handler too,

So please, I need your help.
I need the passports...

They're not
just passports.

You put them in a box

Under the floor
in our home.

They represent everything
I'm trying to forget.

I know! I wouldn't ask
unless it was important.

They're locked up
in evidence.

That's exactly why
they should still be clean.

I'm not going to walk
into evidence and
steal them for you.

Why would I do that?
You want me gone?

Do this and you'll
never see me again.

You need to leave.

Go, now!

No.

Get out.

I was out. Remember?

You're the one
who brought me back in.

Get out.

Perhaps, I haven't
made myself clear.

I came home
and tom was here.

He's back in your life.

He's not in my life.

I understand
what it's like to be

Drawn to something
that is unhealthy,

To a part of yourself
that you are afraid of.

But I want you
to remember

What your life really was
with him

And imagine all that
it could be without him.

I don't have to imagine.

Good.

Because I have a case.

Toshiro Osaka,
a Japanese entrepreneur

Indicted in 2009

And knifed to death
by an aggrieved
business partner.

Miles Chapman,
he was gunned
down in Algiers

While avoiding extradition
for insider trading.

Lester Charles Conway,
his ponzi scheme
was so massive

He's now serving
up to 30 years.

Their crimes cost
hundreds of people
their life savings.

Pensions gone,
homes in foreclosure,
families torn apart.

Why would I feel
bad for them?
They're criminals.

According to Reddington,
they're innocent.

Framed after months,
sometimes years of planning

By a woman with
a deep-seated
hatred for the 1%.

She doesn't just
take their money.

She takes their reputations,
their freedom.

Sometimes, their lives.

Her latest mark
was Declan Salinger,

A flamboyant
venture capitalist
who specialized in biotech.

He was found last night
in a hotel bathtub,

Needle on the floor,
dead from an
apparent overdose.

His personal laptop
was taken into evidence.

CSI uncovered
corporate withdrawals
in excess of $27 million.

Navabi, go see
Salinger's wife.

Ressler, Keen,
the man in prison,
talk to him.

If we was framed,
I want to know how.

We spoke with
your attorneys, Mr. Conway.

You claim to have been
framed by a woman
named claudia sanchez?

Or whatever her
name really was.

She made everything up.

She make up the ponzi scheme,

Or the $128 million you stole

From your clients
to fund your lifestyle?

The ranch,
the private jets...

Look, I've told this story
a hundred times.

We were sleeping together.

She had access
to everything,

My phone, computer,
passwords. If you
don't believe me...

We want to believe you.
We do.

Tell us what happened.

She was a seasonal worker
at the ranch.

Undocumented, one of many.
My wife had no idea.

The affair lasted
exactly 6 months,

And one day
she just disappears.

Three days later,
I'm arrested.

They also found
a packed bag in your car

And your passport
and a plane ticket to Beijing.

She planted it all.

That woman,
she was diabolical.

From the fingerprints
on the suitcase

To the airline
ticket she purchased

Using my computer,

She got into my life.

Abby Issa.

But that was nothing.

The way she moved the money...

Her knowledge
of how it worked,

Issuing false statements,

Creating shell companies...

I hired the best defense
money could buy

And after they looked
at the evidence against me

They recommended
I cop a plea.

Beretta 21 a bobcat.
Packs a nasty bite.

If I ever have to use it,
that's exactly
what I want it to do.

I pled guilty to
a crime I didn't commit.

That's how good she was.

And the money she took,

Most of it
belonged to my clients.

Teachers, doctors,
pension plans,

Over 278 people

Lost everything
because of some ghost.

It never went to trial,
but your lawyers,

You said that they gathered
a lot of evidence.

We need to see it.

Hello, Roger.

The director
called for a vote.

When?
Tomorrow.

I've been quietly lobbying
on your behalf.

I appreciate that.

No you don't.
You expect it.

Where do things stand?

I've spoken to mitchum.
He's with us.

That means that Brazil
and South Korea are as well.

The likely position is Jasper
is the deciding vote.

If we can't secure his vote,

The director will have
a majority to act against you.

Then Jasper will
have to be persuaded.

These are powerful men.

They don't respond to threats.

No,

With powerful men,

One must appeal
to their vanity.

Listen to me, red.

The Fulcrum, if you have it,

If you can prove you have it,

Do it now.
Your life depends on it.

Set the meeting.

Mrs. Salinger
had a private detective
follow her husband

And his assorted
mistresses for two months

But he found nothing
on this particular woman.

Partial prints,
burner phones,
inconclusive selfies

Taken from
the victim's phone.

Conway's lawyers did
three months of discovery
before copping a plea

And all they got
were payroll records
from his ranch

And a lot of fake
green cards and
social security numbers.

The lawyers interviewed
as much staff as
they could find

But no one could
or would positively
I.D. The woman

Conway Alleges
framed him.

Two different cases,
two sets of
professional investigators

And this woman
didn't leave a trace.

Guys, check it out.

The detectives
and the lawyers

May not have found anything
conclusive on their own,

But if you put the photos
they found together...

Our ghost has a face.

Okay, so I have this friend,
osborn, in the forensics lab,

Freaking osborn...
Aram.

Right. So, I scanned
over 40 partial prints

Conway's investigators
found at his ranch,

Another 53 partials
found by Mr. Salinger's
private detective.

I fired them
off to osborn.

He is a wizard with whirls,
loops and arches.

He managed to stitch
together three partials

Into a gorgeous,

Crystal clear
left thumb print.

Ran it through
AFIS, and bang.

Her name is
Vanessa Anne Cruz,

36 years old

Last known address,
her mother's place
in Edison New Jersey.

Get there, now.

Abby?

Shh.

Drink it.

Take off your clothes.

Abby.

Abby!

Who the hell are you?

Andy, from the front desk.

Uh, she gave me 20 bucks

And told me this key
belongs to you.

Ari Hernandez,

Special agent Donald Ressler,
Special agent Keen.

We're trying to locate
your daughter, Vanessa Cruz.

My daughter?

She's dead.

It's my fault.

Vanessa never really had
a good male role model.

Her father was a creep.

So, I wasn't surprised
when she married one.

Wash, rinse, repeat.
Excuse me?

Some women make the
same mistakes with men,
over and over again.

Hernando was a young broker.

Worked at a big firm.

Turns out
he was a real crook.

Was doing insider trading,
and when they caught him,

He jumped off
the George Washington bridge.

And what happened
to Vanessa?

Oh, she thought
they set him up.

She adored him
till the end.

Never questioned
his innocence.

I tried to reason
with her, but...

Take your time.

They found her folded
clothing at Rockaway beach.

They never found the body.

But I know she was dead.

She would
never abandon me.

She looked after you?

She was such
a beautiful person.

Never thought of herself,
always of others.

Since she's been gone...

Vanessa made sure
I'd be well taken care of.

How did she do that?

She had an insurance policy.

I kept up with the mortgage
and made ends meet.

Do you still
have the policy?

I never saw the policy.

But I have a letter
that came with the check.

I'm sure I can find that.

It turns out
it's a fake.

What is?
The entire company.

Minnetonka bankers
health and life was
incorporated in 2006.

In nine years, the only
policy it issued
was to Cruz's mother.

It's a shelf corporation.

You mean "shell" corporation.

No, "shelf," with an "f."

Criminals file
incorporation papers,

They pay all the fees,

It's totally legitimate.

Then they put them
on the shelf for years,
sometimes decades.

They pay the minimum
corporate tax,
build up a credit rating,

Comply with filings

To create an established,
credit-worthy business

That can be used
to launder all kinds
of transactions.

Including phony
insurance payments.

Guys, it looks like
this isn't the only way

Vanessa Cruz
has used shelf companies.

At least six other
victims were all accused
of funneling money

Through shelf
corporations they say
they didn't know existed.

Samar, you said these corps
are being sold to criminals.

If we can find the person
who sold them to Cruz...

Then we might find Cruz.

I need you
to put me in touch

With someone who brokers
shelf corporations.

Good.

I need the Fulcrum.

Our ghost has a name,
Vanessa Cruz.

If I could find the person
who brokered her...

Agent Keen, I'm loathe
to play tit for tat

But unfortunately,
due to present circumstances,

I must insist
on the Fulcrum.

I'm afraid it's become

An immediate matter
of life and death.

I know how much
it means to you.

I don't think you do.

Then you know how much
it means to me to know

What part I play
in all of this,

But you told me
it's a blackmail file

And I'm a Federal agent.

I can't just hand over
information to you

That might give you
leverage over people

Who, for all I know,
run our government.

Those people launched

A missile strike
on the factory to kill us

In order to keep
their secret a secret.

This is about Tom,
isn't it?

No,

This is simply about me
trying to survive.

I'm perfectly happy to put
you in touch with someone

Who deals in
shelf corporations,

But I need the Fulcrum.
Think about it, Lizzy.

Sorry, man. Sorry.

Yeah?
It's me.

I need your help.

The case I'm working on,

Our perp funneled money
through a shelf corporation

Called Minnetonka bankers
health and life.

Now, I'm sure
you must know people

Who provide

These types of services
to people like...

To people like me.
Yes, to people like you.

Isn't Reddington your CI?

Why isn't he here?
Is he still upset
about last night?

I told you
if you helped me
with this case,

I'd get you those passports.

My relationship
with Reddington
is not up for discussion.

What we need to talk
about is the case.

Now, these are
two other shelf corps
our unsub set up.

Andrusia industries,
Middle Leaf properties...

Are these supposed
to mean something to me?

All three of those
shelf corps are named
after Minnesota lakes.

When I was sifting
through your lies,
I found the shelf corp

Where you had
the money parked
Berlin was paying you,

Owasso Inc.?
Also a Minnesota lake.

All right. I'll talk
to my contact,
see what I can come up with.

No, I'll talk
to your contact.

How about we go together?

What's so urgent?

I wanted to talk to you
about Raymond Reddington.

The vote's not until
tomorrow afternoon.

The vote's all but taken,
not officially

But I spent the last
six hours speaking

With all the major players.

You're back-channeling.

You're damn right.

If Reddington
has the Fulcrum,

His death triggers
a protocol for release.

We will be exposed.

Then why am I here?
You're the swing
vote, Kenneth.

You're the one
that will make this decision.

You know I lean
towards the director.

Why should I change
that position now?

Because, Mr. Jasper,
you strike me as
a man who would prefer

To pitch,
rather than catch.

What the hell
have you done?

Just hear him out.
It's all I ask.

Roger is quite right.

The director's latest
stratagem is hubris.

Has very little
to do with me

And everything to do with

The consolidation
of his power.

If he succeeds,

You'll become nothing
more than his trusted servant.

He needs to go. He will go.

Tomorrow, after the meeting.

After you win this vote,

With everything
that your head

And your heart
tell you are true.

You're talking
about assassination.

Yes, Mr. Jasper.

"ambition's debt
must be paid."

Julius Caesar.

One of my favorites.

The play,
not so much the man.

The man was a bit
full of himself.

He did have
a brilliant military mind

But he couldn't smell
a plot to save his life.
Intentional pun.

And why is that?
Pride.

The subtlest, and yet,
most deadly of the seven sins.

Like the director.

He couldn't be saved.

Which part do you
play in all this?

Cassius?
Oh, no.

I'm the Rubicon.

You simply need to determine

Which side of history
you want to end up on.

Who are you, Mr. Jasper?

The subordinate
who remains slavishly
obedient to his master,

Or the presumptive leader
of an organization

That will be

Far more powerful
than it has ever been.

Diamond drive properties.

Oh, my god.

Billy!
Hey.

Come here, you.

How you doin'?

Ziggy, this is Liz.
Liz, this is ziggy.

What brings you two here?

Big favor, my friend here
was a gull in a con game

And she lost
a lot of money.

Oh, that's too bad, baby.

Turns out she was hustled
by one of your clients.

You know better than this.
I know. I know.

But I need an address.

The people we work
for are serious.

And if we don't
get that money back...

You his woman?

I'm more like
his ball and chain.

Yeah. So, what do you say,
can you help us?

Please?

Hey, how about
a thank you?

Ressler, I've got
a mailing address for Cruz.

Clear.

Clear.

Clear.

Agent Ressler.

I've got dozens of files,
photos, dossiers.

She's going through the trash,
hacking the network...

I mean, listen to this,
copies of Declan Salinger's

Bank statements,

Medical records,
there's even
surveillance photos,

And every book and video
he's ordered for three years.

Hang on, did you say
dozens of files?

This goes way
beyond the names
Mr. Reddington gave us.

I'm looking at
people she's framed,

People she's
thinking of framing...

Aram, you wouldn't
believe this place.

Hair, threads, lint,
bits of carpet,
cigarette butts,

All collected, categorized

And filed under
each victim's name.

Trace evidence to be
planted at crime scenes.

Huh!

Drew roberts,
he was one of Cruz's victims.

He worked at
oakside investments.

And?

That was the firm
that employed
Cruz's dead husband.

Aram, I might have an idea
of what this is all about.

You know, I'm no
worse than your
buddy Reddington.

He's not my buddy.

And you are worse.
You don't get it.

Even after all this time.

Reddington is dangerous,
and he's playing you.

I think he's more dangerous
than you give him credit for,

But he has a moral code.

I don't like it
but at least I know
what it is.

And it does not
include lying to me.
Whatever you say.

You wanna know
what I'm gonna do?

No.
I'm gonna buy a boat.

A boat?
Mmm-hmm.

Diving boat.

Gonna run it down
to Micronesia,

Open up a charter business.

You ever heard
of chuuk lagoon?

It's an old
Japanese naval base

Down in the South pacific.

February 7th, 1944,
some 12 warships,
32 support vessels,

And now they're just lying
at the bottom of the ocean.

It's a diver's paradise.

You don't even
know how to swim.

I know.

But I can learn.

Hi.
Hi.

Sorry, I'm late.

I did it.
I talked to an Attorney...

About Carlton?
Yes.

And they think
I have a case,

That I should file
a claim with hr
for sexual harassment.

You did the right thing.

Well, this only
happened because
you gave me the courage.

Thank you.

We're gonna celebrate.

I'll book a room
at the wolverton

And we're just going
to order room service

And watch movies all night.

I love you.

Abby...
No.

I mean it.

I know that we said
we weren't going to get

Super serious,

But I can't help it.

I love you.

What is it?

I love you, too.

Well, I'm assuming
you don't want me
to walk you to your door.

Thank you.

Hey, can I ask
you something?

Do you think it's possible

For someone like me

To start over,

To become something else?

Isn't that what you
do for a living?

Yeah.

But you know what I mean.

Can you be honest?

You have to be honest.

Tom.

Our entire marriage,

Everything that happened,

Our fights, the baby,

Your laugh,

It couldn't have
all been pretend.

You're not
that good an actor.

That's why
I didn't see it,

Because so much of it
was real.

You are my greatest
failure as a profiler.

You're my greatest success.

You made me feel,

For a moment,

Like I had a life,

And that somebody cared.

So, this is me,
being honest.

Can you be honest
about the passports?

Passports?

They're real,
government issue.

Where did you get them?

Berlin had a guy.

Guess not.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.
I can't.

Not about this.

That's not
how the truth works.

You don't get to
pick and choose.

Not if you wanna
learn how to swim.

It's gonna be a nice boat.

What was that?

That was goodbye.

That won't be necessary.

Mr. Hobbs here
is one of the good guys.

How are faye and the boys?

I don't think I've seen them
since Dylan's wedding.

They're fine.

Mark and his wife
just had a baby girl.

No! Grandfather.

Suits you well,
wisdom of the ages and all.

Where is everybody?
I thought I was late.

Vote's already been taken.

Roger...

Roger, Roger, Roger.

I always treated you
with respect.

We may not have seen
eye to eye

But I always
heard you out.

Look, I don't know
what he's been telling...

I brought you in.
I know.

I was your sponsor.
Yes.

Look, I told him
that Reddington...

Reddington did not make you!

We made you!

Have you forgotten
what this organization

Has done for you?

Government contracts,

Silver stone, r&d grants.

We put you in the game,

And you betray us?

You betray me?
I treated you like family.

I supported...

Listen, just hear me out.

There is a car
waiting for you outside.

You are going
to the airport...
Please...

You are leaving
the country tonight.

You are not to call
your family

And you are never
coming back.

It's not about money.

It's about revenge.

Aram, can you
put up all the files?

Hernando Cruz
jumped off that bridge

After being accused
of insider trading.

He purchased 10,000
shares of stock in
Rudman pharmaceuticals

One day before
it got approval
from the FDA to market

A new cancer drug.

That stock
doubled overnight.

Toshiro Osaka,
our Japanese entrepreneur,

When Hernando Cruz
made the trade,
Osaka was the cfo

At Rudman pharmaceuticals.

Miles Chapman,
he was the regulator
who approved the drug,

And Drew Roberts
was Cruz's co-worker

Who oversaw
all of the trades.

You think they were
in on it with the husband?

I'm saying maybe
the husband wasn't
in on it at all.

Maybe they set him up.

It makes sense.
Vanessa Cruz is
a frame-up artist.

Maybe she got the idea
from seeing how easy
it was for these people

To frame her husband.

Wait, the evidence
you found in
Cruz's loft suggests

She's been targeting
dozens of victims.

All one-percenters,

People who personify
the same greed

That cost her
husband his life.

Assuming that she's
going after everyone
who was involved

In framing her husband,
the question is, "who's left?"

I don't know,

But I do know someone
who can tell us.

Before you made
your fortune in
the private sector,

You worked for the division

Of corporate finance
at the sec.

Yeah, so? Did you look
at the research I gave you?

Tell us about
Hernando Cruz.

Did you find anything?
Hernando Cruz!

He was a trader for
Oakside investments in 2008.

He killed himself
after you were about to

Open an investigation
into him for insider trading.

So, what does that
have to do with...

I thought you were
looking for the woman
who set me up.

It was his wife
who set you up,

And now we know why.

Along with Toshiro Osaka,
Miles Chapman,
and Drew Roberts.

Tell us about
Hernando Cruz.

He didn't jump off
that bridge,
did he, Lester?

Don't look so depressed.

Today's your lucky day.
We found out who framed you.

Cruz.

It was his wife?

Maybe we could help you.

Maybe you can
talk to us and maybe
we can make a deal.

It was 2007.

Before the crash,

Height of sub-prime
mortgages, bundling,

Things that
really hurt people,

But this, it was
a victimless crime.

We had every angle covered,

The trading floor,
the regulatory agencies...

You made the sec
look the other way.

I want a lawyer.
No, no, no.

What you want is a deal,

And the only way
you're gonna get that

Is if you keep talking,

So talk.

Everyone was going
to look the other way,

Except that kid, Cruz.

He found out,
went to his boss,

We tried to keep him quiet
but he refused.

He was too idealistic.

So, you were
a part of a conspiracy,

And when Cruz tried
to go against you,

He was murdered,

Thrown off a bridge,
to keep him from
blowing the whistle?

That's when you framed him.

Which is why she framed you.

When I knew her,
she was nobody,

A ranch hand. How did she...

If Cruz went to his boss,
like you said,

Why was it never reported?

Because his boss
was in on it.
What was his name?

Mason Carlton,
Thunderich capital.

Cruz has taken
revenge on everyone
but this guy.

Find him, Aram.

I called Carlton's office
and nobody's picking up.

His cell is going
straight to voicemail.

But get this,

I accessed his cell records

And I found a ton of
inappropriate messages
with his assistant.

Her name is Abby Issa.

Either this girl is having
an affair with her boss...

Or he's being catfished.

You said she was
his assistant?

Which means she'd have
the keys to The Kingdom.

Passwords, financials,
credit cards.

There's a hit on
Mason Carlton's Amex.

He reserved a room
for tonight at
the Wolverton hotel.

Hello?

Abby?

How long have
you been here?

Hello, Mr. Carlton.

Who the hell are you?

Hernando Cruz.
Surely you remember him.

The young day trader
you and your colleagues
framed and murdered.

There were six of you.

Pigs.

Too good to work,
too refined and
elegant to sweat.

So, you and all the other
useless greedy pigs instead

Gorge yourselves,

Grow fat on the sweat
of the other 99%.

So, little piggy.

I will tell you
how this is going to work.

You and abby have been
having an affair.

There's a digital paper trail
of texts and pictures.

Your fingerprints and dna
are in her apartment.

You reserved this room.

I've arranged it
so the police will

Believe you've been
to her apartment,

Just like I've arranged
for them to believe

Abby discovered you were
embezzling from your firm

And was gonna
blackmail you unless
you pay her to keep quiet.

They'll confirm
she's gone to a lawyer,

Prepared a sexual
harassment lawsuit which
she threatened you with,

So you shot her,

With a gun she bought
to protect herself,

Before turning it
on yourself.

Abby...

She has such a big heart.

She's so innocent,

So unsuspecting.

Just like...

But this is the only way.

You have to pay
for what you did.

Hey, I'm here.
Sorry, I'm late.

What is this?

Hello, this is
security calling.

I have a gentleman
and a lady
from the FBI here

Who would like to have
a word with Mr. Carlton.

I'm sorry, Abby.

I'm so sorry.

Follow me, please.

Hands where
I can see 'em.

Hands in the air!

She said
she made a mistake.

She said she made
a horrible mistake.

Radio security and have
them lock down the hotel!

And call an ambulance!

Ressler!

You wanted to see me?

I thought you should know

Mason Carlton's
gonna be charged
in the murder

Of Hernando Cruz.

We lost her.

Yes, and we will find her.

What matters now is that

The innocent people she framed

Are gonna be set free.

This, here.

You, there.

You have no idea
how happy that makes me.

I wonder what his angle is.

Sir?

Reddington.

Why give us this case?
Thank you.

What's his interest
in this Cruz woman?

Mrs. Cruz, my employer is
a longtime admirer of yours.

Who are you?
He understands

Your gambit has
run its course.

The fbi knows
what you're up to.

They're looking
for you now,

Which means you have
one of two choices,

Run and hide,
or accept his help.

What help?
And who is this employer?

I got your message.

What is this place?
Reddington.

Tom, what are you
still doing here?

I've been thinking
about what you said

About needing to
tell you the truth.

So, I'm gonna
tell you the truth.

I don't understand.

The passports, the passports
came for Reddington.

Liz, there's more.

It's me. It's done.

I'm listening.

The vote went your way.

The director wasn't

Very happy
but a vote's a vote.

And Hobbs?

He wants to meet.

Yes, I'm quite sure
he would have.

But he can't, can he?

What are you talking about?

Hobbs was to contact me
after the vote was cast.
He didn't,

Which means he's dead,
which means you betrayed him.

Betrayed me.

That's not true.

He specifically asked that
the three of us should meet

So that we can
discuss the future.

You need to run, Jasper.

Run like the prairie wind,
because I'm coming for you.

And when I find you,

I'm gonna cut out
that forked tongue of yours

And deliver it
to the director myself.

It's time to
go away, Dembe.

Agent Keen wants to meet,
regarding the Fulcrum.

What's wrong?

I just spent the last
42 hours dealing with a man

Who is a lifelong, habitual,
pathological liar.

Tom?
Yes. Tom.

Lizzy...
Don't give me advice.

This man, this liar,

He told me something.

Something that
I need you to confirm.

Now, before I ask,
I want you to understand

That I expect you to give me
the dignity of a Yes or a No.

Do you understand?

Yes.

I'm the one who
hired tom Keen

To enter your life.

Can I explain?
No.

No, you cannot explain.

Here, this is
all you wanted.

Now, you have it.

Lizzy, when
I hired Tom...

I said please do not
attempt to explain why.

I don't care why.
I just want this to stop.

I want it all to stop,
right now.

Take it!

Lizzy... Lizzy!

No!

Raymond!
Dembe!

Reddington!
