Previously on Witchblade:

You are a good and faithful servant,
Ian, but you know not your master.

Might not you tell me where I can find
your boyfriend, Ian Nottingham?

Ian is his own man. He is in my employ,
although not in that capacity.

Got a threat from someone who doesn't
want me talking to you about that.

Let me guess, tall, black overcoat...

...drops the temp in a room
about 10 degrees?

This is a one-time-only invitation
to join a group of policemen...

...who understand the gravity
of their job.

I'm not the only one
looking out for her.

Sara and the Witchblade are now one.

We can no longer take the Witchblade
away from fair Sara.

Should it come to that,
we would have to take her.

Sara Pezzini,
a New York City detective...

...drawn into a chance encounter
with a supernatural weapon.

Each day, each mystery, each encounter,
will ultimately reveal her true destiny.

His name is Armand Parsegian.

Arms dealer, world-class.

Most recent claim to fame: Arming
both sides of the Chechen conflict.

What a sweetheart.

He's gonna be gracing us
with a once-in-a-decade visit.

He lives on a yacht.

Hardly ever comes ashore.
Especially not in this country.

- What's the occasion?
- Well, that's what you're gonna tell me.

It's gotta be a sale or a purchase,
and it's gotta be a big one.

Ralph Wray, 11-11.
Are you sure this is the right address?

Copy that.
The instructions were very specific.

- But there's no one...
- Just leave the package there.

Okay.

So I'm assigning you two-man teams,
12-hour shifts, round-the-clock surveillance.

- So long, social life.
- You have no social life.

- Why aren't the feds all over this?
- Because the feds don't know about it yet.

- This is a Bureau job.
- Would I be making myself clear...

...if I said that wrapping up Parsegian
in a ribbon for the FBI...

...would be a career-making move
for any officer? Would I?

Memorize every detail
of these dossiers.

Uh, Pezzini and McCartey,
you're up first.

Then Wheeler and Belson,
then Timlin and Jacoby.

- Any questions?
- Who's the muscle?

Benjamin Wolf,
Parsegian's bodyguard.

Infiltrated our own Secret Service...

Okay? That's it.

Our current caseloads?

Court appearances? Homicide?

Everybody's dismissed.
Except Pezzini.

Even your rookie partner gets this.
What's the matter with you?

Simply, I work Homicide.
This is not a homicide.

I'm offering you an opportunity here.

Why exactly is that, sir?

Maybe it's because I recognize your ability
to execute a difficult and dangerous task.

Or maybe it's that
I have my eye on McCartey...

...and I'm looking
to build up his r�sum�.

Or maybe I'm just shorthanded.

Whatever the reason,
you better step up, kid.

Because this is an order and not a request.
Could I make myself any clearer?

Not if you tried, sir.

Thank you. Goodbye.

Sly!

Open up, dude.

Man, what'd you do last night?

Come on, man, I know you're home.

If you don't come out,
I'm gonna steal your laptop...

...and rifle all your DVDs.

Nasty.

Come on, man. You ready or what?

Sly.

That's not funny.

Sly.

Oh, man.

Hey.

Hey.

Okay. Okay. Um...

Hey! Anybody!

I'm 100 percent certain...

...this prototype
will meet all your expectations.

You should have received it by now.

Your new plaything is accurate
to 2000 meters.

The laser sight
has got an onboard computer...

...which compensates for wind drift
and elevations.

And she delivers a wide array
of payloads.

Explosive, armor-piercing,
jacketed, soft-tip.

I am looking forward to
your reviews and comments.

I know.

You're dying to take
it out for a spin.

Once you're satisfied,
we can discuss delivery in quantity.

- Pezzini... Uh, Sara.
- Hey.

You gotta help me.

- She can't, she's busy.
- Is anyone talking to you?

Jake, give us a minute.

A minute.

What's going on, buddy?

Um...

My best friend was murdered.

-What?
-Yeah. I,uh..I found him this morning.

Uh, called it in.

This bastard cop took one look
and called it suicide, but...

Okay, whoa, whoa, back up.
How did he die?

Someone hung him from the ceiling.

I know how it looks,
but Sly would have never done that.

He was the most...

Look, anyway, this jerk,
Detective Orlinsky...

- Wait, Orlinsky took the call?
- Yeah, barely.

He didn't check anything.
He just called the meat wagon.

- Stood around cracking jokes.
- I'm sorry.

Yeah, well, I don't care about sorry.
I wanna know who killed him.

Well, of course. Look, Gabriel,
when I get off work tonight, I'll...

- Don't blow me off, Pezzini.
- I'm not.

Gabriel, I'm on special assignment, and
apparently, a really important surveillance.

Uh...

Give me the address.

- Really?
- Yeah.

I won't have much time,
but meet me there in 20 minutes.

We'll see what we see. Okay?

Oh, thank you. You're righteous.

Gabriel.

The bitch Pezzini,
she just left with the kid.

So who might have wanted
your friend dead?

Uh, you want a list?

Uh, there's a partner
who'll get Sly's half of Parricide.

- Parricide?
- Parricide Comix, the name means...

"Killing your parents."
I know what it means.

Okay. Uh...

Then you got a string of
ex-girlfriends sucking him dry.

Crazed fans who pay fortunes
for his original artwork on the Net.

And whatever.

Tell me about this one.

It's new. It means nothing to me.

Did he like to party?
Yeah, you bet your ass.

Was he an addict? No way.

Look, he was an edgy guy, you know?

That's what made him great. Um...

Fast cars, skydiving, raves,
all that crap.

I thought you were here to help me.

Helping you includes letting you know
when I think you're wrong.

I'm not wrong.

Gabriel, you want someone
to jerk you off...

...go down to Times Square,
it will cost you 20 bucks.

- Great.
- Gabriel.

Subjects are preparing to leave.

Wolf just readied the car himself.

Copy that. Is Pezzini in position?

Uh...

Yes, sir,
she's photographing their vehicle.

Why isn't she on this channel?

I am on this channel.

All right, get ready to move.
Keep me informed.

- Where the hell have you been?
- Personal errand.

With that kid Bowman.

Nice of you to make it back.

- Hey, it's not like I missed anything.
- Oh, no.

Big gunfire, couple of explosions.

Nothing. You got lucky.

No. Now I'm lucky.

There they go.

Keep your ears on.
I'll be at the bike.

Gotcha.

Jake!

Jake!

All units. Shots fired, two down.
Roll ambulance. Roll it, roll it.

Pezzini. Report.

Pezzini? Report!

So Mogenson went up there,
came back down.

She said it was
definitely from there.

Brilliant. Just brilliant.

- Captain.
- Right under your damn noses.

We never heard a shot. Silenced
weapon fired from long-range.

You're senior here, Pezzini.
This is on you.

It was a world-class hit.
Parsegian lives by the sword.

You and half of New York City
watched this guy get clipped...

...and you don't have
a clue who did it?

Johnson, can you open the trunk?

You better start thinking
about what you're gonna tell the FBI.

How about the truth, sir?

Whoa.

Photog.

- Wicked.
- Photog!

Hold on.

Jeez, Pezzini, why don't you
break it down next time?

Is your computer online?

Is Elvis worm food?

- You mind telling me what you're doing?
- Yep.

Oh, well, then get off my box.

I can't open these files
at the office.

- Oh, why didn't you do it at your place?
- Because you were closer.

A clue would be nice.
Don't have to tell me everything.

Just give me a little hint
so I can play along with the audience.

A few weeks ago, a guy came in.
Warned you not to talk to me.

Don't remind me. That's not him.

Nope. That's his keeper.

"Kenneth Irons." I know that name.
He's on Forbes list every year.

American Billionaires,
World's Most Powerful People.

What? Did this guy kill someone?

Probably a lot of people.

- So he's a suspect?
- No.

Well, did someone kill him? No.

It would've been that.
I would've heard it on the news.

Come on, Pezzini,
you gotta give me something here.

"Subject occupies 12-bedroom mansion.

Never sleeps in same room
two consecutive nights.

Owns 11 personal vehicles,
switches every day."

Ha, ha. I thought I was paranoid.

Uh-oh.

- What? It's impossible.
- Well, it's irrefutable.

- Told you.
- One shot through both heads?

Look, there is brain matter from one subject
inside the cranium of the other one.

Look at the entrance and exit wounds
of the second guy.

Okay, the round, it was traveling slower.
Not much slower, but slower.

What muzzle velocity
would it take to punch a round...

...straight through two live skulls
with virtually zero deflection?

- This is a Pezzini case, right?
- Yeah, why?

Yeah, figured.
The weird ones always are.

You know, it actually might be interesting
to test that sniper's weapon you recovered.

I was thinking we could, uh, round up
a couple of cadavers from downstairs...

...and see how many heads it would take
to actually stop one of these projectiles.

Miss Po, please.

Hey, it's professional curiosity.

Mm-hm.

"Subject Kenneth Irons
has no known family or progeny.

Personal security, Ian Nottingham,
U.S. Army Special Forces.

Black Dragons Unit, '93 through '95."

Black Dragons.
They named the unit after the guy?

Yeah. They wouldn't be far off.

"Subject is highly sexually active.
Known partners include..."

Oh, no.

Damn, Pez. This guy's your lover?

This was a world-class hit.

Sara was right.

Captain, there's no shame in admitting
you're battling a worthy adversary.

Well, the good news here is that we're
gonna have a short list of suspects.

Military training,
extreme weapons capability.

Get online and generate
a finite ring.

All over it, cap.

McCartey, since your partner's
nowhere to be found...

...look into this
and get back to me directly, okay?

You got it, boss.

No, I am not his lover.

Hmm.

Just forget everything
you've seen in here.

Yeah, sure, no problem.

I'll just get a bulk eraser
and hold it up to my head.

Oh, my gosh, what was I thinking,
bringing this here?

Well, you were thinking you didn't want
your bosses snooping around in these files.

You were thinking you did want someone
other than yourself to know about this stuff.

You were thinking you could trust
the handsome, dashing Gabriel.

Oh, brother.

And you were thinking, in exchange
for the use of his computer...

...you would offer to spend some more time
on the unsolved murder of his friend Sly.

All right, Gabriel, now you're pushing it.

If I say please,
will you at least think about it?

I haven't stopped thinking about it.

Um, did you catch the last window
on the last screen there?

- Someone was distracting me.
- Oh, well...

Your pal Nottingham? It said
he might be Kenneth Irons' son.

You know, Gabriel,
I think it might be a good idea...

...for you to get out of town
for a couple of days.

Gabriel?

Gabriel?

- Hello?
- Good, I caught you.

How did you even know I...?

You're investigating the suicide
of a prot�g� of mine, Sylvester Marcus.

You are a patron to
a comic-book artist?

Was, in this case.

Just offering
you my cooperation...

...lest you discover a connection
and think I'm hiding something.

Gee, thanks. How did you know him?

He attended design school
on a scholarship I award annually.

We remained close.

Were you close to Armand Parsegian?

A sweet man. I'll miss him.

How did you even learn of his death?
It hasn't hit the media yet, Mr. Irons.

Hmm. Hurry home to your precinct, Sara.
Someone's waiting for you.

What happened?

You zoned out in some kind of trance
or something, so I took off.

I went over to Sly's. There was
supposed to be a wake for him.

Instead, his partner, Pike Donless...

...was negotiating a new lease
with Sly's landlord.

I don't know, it's bad enough
he's taking over Sly's company.

I just couldn't hack him
taking over his whole life.

Go on.

I broke Donless' nose.

I, uh...

I know how you feel, Gabriel.

This past year alone,
I've lost a partner and a lover.

So I get it.

What am I supposed to do?

I don't know.

But I don't think it's going
around beating people up.

Oh, like you've never taken it out
on anybody?

The best advice
that I could give you is...

Just sit still...

...and hurt.

You know, I used to think
that time was linear.

Like a string.

Under that version of reality...

...Sly's gone.

Over, ended.

Oh, gee, thanks, Pez,
that's real comforting.

But maybe time isn't that way.

Maybe time is more like...

Like photos in an album.

Maybe each moment lasts forever...

...and it's only our perception
that streams them together.

And if that's the case...

...then you can turn the page
and be with your friend in any moment...

...anytime you want.

Have you been reading
Quantum Physics for Dummies?

I can honestly tell you that I still share
meaningful moments with my ex-partner...

...even though he is dead.

You're free to go.

I ordered you into my recognizance.
I'll try to make the charges go away.

Thank you.

Unless you act out again.

In which case, I will hunt your ass down
and kick it up somewhere around your ears.

And you know I can do that.

Come on, let's get out of here.

Take care.

What the hell?

Relax, Sara. I would
do anything to please you.

Then quit with
the psycho vampire boogie.

I love you in unguarded moments.

What the hell are you doing here?

Turning myself in.

Can and will be held against you
in a court of law.

You have the right to an attorney.

If you cannot afford an attorney,
one will appointed for you.

Do you understand the rights
I've read to you?

What's your real story, detective?

Would you like me to read them again?

Does everyone here really
buy that champion-surfer fiction of yours?

Do you understand these rights?

- What's wrong with him?
- You got a week?

One final time.

Do you understand the rights
I have read to you?

What do you think?

- What do I think?
- That would be a yes, Jake.

Mr. Nottingham,
do you know Armand Parsegian?

Doesn't everyone?

Were you aware he was surveilling
the man you are paid to bodyguard?

I'd be a poor bodyguard if I didn't.

Did anyone ask you
why you got whisked into this job...

...over several candidates
who were actually qualified?

Where were you today between
the hours of 12 and 3?

Sound asleep in my own bed.

Asleep at noon?

Yes.

Alone, unfortunately.

Perhaps you'd care
to join me tomorrow.

Last chance to answer
my question.

I'm sorry.
Could you repeat it, please?

Oh, you don't remember
what I asked?

I remember perfectly.

I just want you to repeat it.

I wanna hear the sound
of your hollow voice.

Do you remember, Jake McCartey,
what you're doing here?

Now, in this police department?

Do you remember
who you really are?

Hey! Get out of here!

- Gonna let this bastard make fools of us?
- Rookie, take a break!

Now.

Alone at last.

You didn't have to kill someone
to make that happen.

Is that what you think I did?

I suspect you've killed for less.

Take my hand.

No, thanks.

Do you want answers?

Take my hand.

The other one.

Whoever killed Armand Parsegian
prevented thousands of murders.

I know saving lives wasn't your motive.

His assassin should be thanked.

Yet the killer's reward in this society
is that he, in turn, will be murdered.

Did you intend to take
both men out with one shot?

Or were you just lucky, Ian?

Less than a century ago,
men were still killing each other in duels.

Only three or four people in the world
are capable of making a shot like that.

One is in jail in Hong Kong,
one is in the Iraqi army.

One might have been your first victim,
Benjamin Wolf.

Between you and me...

...it was a beautiful hit.

I heard you took
a swing at a suspect.

I lost my cool.

Don't apologize.

I'm betting he deserved more.

Next time I see him,
he's gonna get more.

But the question
that I'm asking myself is:

Why is your partner back over there
at interrogation...

...holding that dirtbag's hand?

I mean, I just...

I think Parsegian and your boss
had an arms deal going.

I think you anticipated a double-cross...

...and protected your master.

Dueling men resolutely accept
their inevitable death.

A warrior, Sara, walks with death
as if it were a friend.

She resolutely accepts her own finiteness
and meditates on it daily.

Can you imagine
the freedom that gives a person?

Or maybe you don't have to imagine.

I'm sorry. Go on.

How many people have you
murdered in the course of your duty, Sara?

None.

I've killed my share,
but I haven't murdered any.

Come on, Sara.

Remember the rush
of satisfaction you felt...

...when you murdered that Irish wench
who killed your lover, Conchobar?

That was justified.

Let go of my hand.

Let go.

Aren't you the least bit curious about
those questions I was asking your partner?

Maybe a night in a cell will make
you feel a little more communicative.

For the promise
of another tryst like this one?

You can keep me here forever.

"Nietzsche said
the bravest thing a man can do...

...is to gather his loved ones
around him and take his own life...

...before time and disease
have a chance to lay him waste.

If one cannot live ferociously,
why live?

The only real question is:

Should we wait until life has proven
to us how disappointing it is?

Or should we cheerfully charge
toward whatever awaits us...

...on the other side of death,
presuming it cannot be worse than this?

If one studies
the rich and successful...

...one cannot help recognizing
their path leads not to happiness.

But apologies
to those who will miss me.

Wouldn't you rather see me
free-falling among the stars...

...than chained to a life
which only evokes my disdain...

...or even worse, my apathy?"

We call ourselves
the White Bulls.

This invitation is offered to you
one time and one time only.

What's up?

I'm in.

-You won't be sorry.
-About this test,this initiation and Pezzini...

Jake, relax, my friend. Relax.

You try relaxing
in my position, all right?

The test will come when it's time.
You won't even see it coming.

You may not even know it's come.

But one day,
I'll walk over to you and I'll say:

"Jake, you passed."

- Okay.
- Okay.

Hey, Nottingham,
where do you think you're going?

- Orlinsky, what the hell's going on here?
- What's going on with you?

Trying to call that Marcus suicide
a murder? That's my case.

You first.

Well, what's it look like?
Mr. Nottingham's being released.

No. No, Mr. Nottingham is my suspect,
murder one.

DA won't file. Lack of evidence.

I haven't put forward
my evidence yet.

Oh, and how would you
do that, Pezzini?

How do you put intuition on display
in a courtroom, hmm?

Because you got nothing else
on this man.

Here.

"Not gonna file" my ass, Orlinsky.

If you wanna stay close to me...

...just ask, Sara.

We can be inseparable.

Freak.

Is your partner in?

No, Nottingham. Why?

I have a debt I wish to repay.

- What kind of debt?
- A debt of honor.

You, uh... You said
you had something to tell me.

Yeah.

Your friend is dead, Gabriel.

That's what I came for?

That final comic was his
farewell letter.

That was a goof, okay? Sly had been
mouthing that existential crap for years.

Whether he ended his own life or not,
he saw his death coming.

And he accepted it.

And now you have to accept it too.

Where's your gun, detective?

Why don't you use that bullet on me?

What bullet?

You refusing to even consider
that Sly might have committed suicide...

...is really you refusing
to let him go.

That's B.S., Sara.

Gabriel.

I see people deal with
death every day.

Denial and anger are the
first two stages.

You're stuck there. You gotta move on.

So that's it? Case closed?

No, absolutely not.

I'll keep investigating, but I
want you to leave that job to me.

Your job is to mourn your friend.

He is gone.

And there's a hole in your life
where he used to be.

And that's gotta hurt like hell.

I am truly sorry for you.

Uh...

Do you, uh...?
Do you know because of that?

No.

Because of this.

Come here.

Shh, come here.

It's gonna be okay.

This is about the punch I threw.

Hey, man, I'm just trying
to apologize.

How will you apologize
for betraying your partner?

For sentencing her to death?

Are you talking about Sara?

You don't even deserve
to say her name.

Hey, Nottingham!

Why don't you pick a fair fight?

I never met a worthy opponent
till I met you.

My life is yours for the taking.

Let him go.

Before you rescue him,
consider this.

He betrayed you.

Yeah? There's a lot of that
going around.

You know less than you think you do.

Listen, you crazy psycho Galahad.

You wanna make me happy?
Let him go, now.

I'm committed to your
partner's death.

The only way to save his life
is to end mine.

That would be your choice, not mine.

Hey, it's okay.

Sara.

You wouldn't lift the blade against
your own flesh and blood, would you?

What?

What did you say?

I said, your partner
needs medical attention.

What did you say?

Nottingham!

Wuss.

There. How's that feel?

Like I got hit by a truck.

Well, that's exactly what happened,
right?

Right.

You wanna tell me anything
about the questions...

...that Nottingham was asking
the day we Q&A'd him?

Yeah.

I wanna tell you
the guy's absolutely full of crap.

Good.

What?

- You believe him, not me?
- I believe me.

- But...
- In this case, I'll take your word for it.

Good.

I guess we're even now.

I helped you out at
the Irish massacre.

You helped me out today.

Hey, that's what partners are for.

Ow.

Hello, Sara.

"Flesh and blood"?

Gabriel's right.

The death of Sylvester Marcus
was no suicide.

I know it for a fact.

It seems to me there's only one way
you could know that for a fact.

Mr. Irons felt that life
was imitating art a bit too closely.

The comic that kid published,
Parricide?

I always liked that comic.
