knew, they hit the rocks,

She needed blood.

So...
210
00:09:02,124 --> 00:09:05,309
I gave them mine.

[Oliver]: I don't understand.
546
00:23:34,194 --> 00:23:36,661
Brackner may be released?
547
00:23:36,663 --> 00:23:39,230
It's true. Brackner's on his last appeal,
548
00:23:39,232 --> 00:23:40,665
but this time, defense says
549
00:23:40,667 --> 00:23:43,100
they've got enough for a reversal,
550
00:23:43,102 --> 00:23:44,452
based on new forensics
551
00:23:44,454 --> 00:23:46,721
suggesting a compromise
in the chain of evidence.
552
00:23:46,723 --> 00:23:49,373
There's an old Illinois precedent from 1898
553
00:23:49,375 --> 00:23:50,374
on material evidence.
554
00:23:50,376 --> 00:23:51,508
I'll email it to you.
555
00:23:51,510 --> 00:23:53,994
Great. Thanks.
556
00:23:53,996 --> 00:23:55,195
Uh...
557
00:23:55,197 --> 00:23:57,448
You know, I thought you'd be, uh,
558
00:23:57,450 --> 00:23:58,666
too busy campaigning
559
00:23:58,668 --> 00:24:00,517
to pay attention to this little stuff.
560
00:24:00,919 --> 00:24:02,620
Putting trash like this away
561
00:24:02,622 --> 00:24:03,888
is worth whatever it takes.
562
00:24:06,792 --> 00:24:09,060
Hey, you mind if I drop by and watch?
563
00:24:10,663 --> 00:24:12,814
You're the boss.

565
00:24:17,586 --> 00:24:19,720
But that's just not fair!
566
00:24:19,722 --> 00:24:21,021
I'm betting that's where
Michael's gonna do it...
567
00:24:21,023 --> 00:24:23,040
in court, at the appeal.
568
00:24:23,042 --> 00:24:24,742
Because if Brackner gets released,
569
00:24:24,744 --> 00:24:25,893
he'll disappear.
570
00:24:26,195 --> 00:24:28,846
I don't like the idea of
that guy walking around.
571
00:24:28,848 --> 00:24:31,415
But, hey! What if he couldn't walk?
572
00:24:31,417 --> 00:24:32,750
You know, I have a cousin...
573
00:24:32,752 --> 00:24:35,869
Norman, enough regulations
have been broken already.
574
00:24:36,955 --> 00:24:38,589
We don't know any more than Mr. Wheeler.
575
00:24:38,591 --> 00:24:39,807
Probably far less.
576
00:24:39,809 --> 00:24:41,842
Besides, what if... what if we're wrong?
577
00:24:41,844 --> 00:24:43,060
What if we are right?
578
00:24:43,062 --> 00:24:44,512
His daughter has lost enough already.
579
00:24:44,514 --> 00:24:46,480
She has. I just...
580
00:24:46,482 --> 00:24:48,182
Wait a minute.
581
00:24:48,184 --> 00:24:50,484
Ms. Mclnerney,
582
00:24:50,486 --> 00:24:52,252
what was the name of her doctor again?
583
00:24:52,254 --> 00:24:53,554
Ackerman!
584
00:24:53,556 --> 00:24:54,972
We've got the name.
585
00:24:54,974 --> 00:24:57,057
I'll just look up the records.
586
00:24:59,895 --> 00:25:03,097
Whoa... okay.
587
00:25:03,099 --> 00:25:04,882
This is a game-changer.
588
00:25:04,884 --> 00:25:06,083
I can't believe you found it.
589
00:25:06,085 --> 00:25:07,785
You're right. Someone has to stop him.
590
00:25:07,787 --> 00:25:10,020
Yeah, but we can't prove
it. At least not in time.
591
00:25:10,022 --> 00:25:11,071
Oliver, you always say
592
00:25:11,073 --> 00:25:12,706
that we have to be responsible
593
00:25:12,708 --> 00:25:14,642
for what little truth that we have.
594
00:25:14,644 --> 00:25:17,244
We have it now, and Michael doesn't.
595
00:25:17,246 --> 00:25:18,879
We have a moral obligation to stop him.
596
00:25:18,881 --> 00:25:20,481
We'll do everything in our power,
597
00:25:20,483 --> 00:25:22,199
but our powers are somewhat limited.
598
00:25:22,201 --> 00:25:23,117
How limited?
599
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:24,535
Well, we have to stay
600
00:25:24,537 --> 00:25:26,470
within some pretty strict
guidelines around here.
601
00:25:26,472 --> 00:25:28,405
And, you know, every once in a while,
602
00:25:28,407 --> 00:25:29,924
when no ones's looking,
603
00:25:29,926 --> 00:25:32,576
we push the envelope if it's important.
604
00:25:32,578 --> 00:25:35,412
Well, I think this is one of those times
605
00:25:35,414 --> 00:25:37,798
and I'm certainly not looking.
606
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,135
There you go. You heard it direct
from the Head of Special Projects
607

in Washington, D.C.
608
00:25:42,221 --> 00:25:43,637
It is a tempting proposition,
609
00:25:43,639 --> 00:25:45,806
but we are talking
about saving a life here.
610
00:25:45,808 --> 00:25:46,874
Two, actually.
611
00:25:46,876 --> 00:25:49,209
We're gonna need a lot more than
someone looking the other way.
612
00:25:49,211 --> 00:25:52,095
We're gonna need full
authority to pull this off.
613
00:25:52,097 --> 00:25:53,246
At least temporarily.
614
00:25:53,248 --> 00:25:55,732
Why should it be temporary?
615
00:25:55,734 --> 00:25:57,501
Ms. McInerney...
616
00:25:57,503 --> 00:26:00,421
