(LINE RINGING)

-Anything?
-DIANA: Nothing.

It's 20 after. You want to call it?

No, not yet.

Fowler was willing to pull a gun on you

to make sure we didn't know
about this meeting.

Whoever shows up, I'm betting they know
why that plane exploded.

DIANA: Boss?

-PETER: Diana, you see him?
-Yeah.

Can't make a face.

Excuse me. FBI.

Hold it right there.

He's heading around the stone arches.
Cut him off!

DIANA: FBI. Freeze!

He knows how to slip a tail.

Yeah. This guy's no civilian.

All right, I want you to pull tape
from every surveillance camera in the area

plus our cameras, ATM cameras.

-Everything in this area.
-Yeah.

I want to know who this guy is.

Morning.

You look exhausted.

Oh, I don't sleep well
when Elizabeth's out of town.

Well, if her company keeps
taking off the way it is

you can retire early
and become a house husband.

Because when you look at me,
you see soap operas and light housework.

-What are we watching?
-Our new case.

Potentially corrupt politician.

-Need a moment to recover?
-I might, actually.

NEAL: Gary Jennings, state senator.

-You've heard of him?
-I am politically aware.

He's popular. Even Mozzie voted for him.

-Mozzie votes?
-More often than you'd think.

Or would approve of.

REPORTER: Why did you
get into politics, Mr. Jennings?

Well, I… You know, I didn't plan to.
I wanted to be a carpenter.

-Jesus was a carpenter.
-Yeah, he's subtle.

But then I… I realized
that my talentswere better suited

to helping build America's future

with words and ideas
rather than brick and mortar.

That's where I find my inspiration.

-(INAUDIBLE)
-Well, his assistant

thinks that he's illegally funneling money
into his campaign.

Don't tell Mozzie.

We've had our eye on Jennings for a while.

So far nothing's stuck,
but this could be our in.

-You want to join a political campaign?
-What do I have to do?

Let's figure that out.

I was a true believer.
I believed in Jennings.

I still believe in what he stands for.

What changed your mind?

Gary started having
these mystery meetings.

Right after, our campaign started getting
an increasing number of donations.

Gary started keeping two sets of books.

I'm in charge of one, none of the
regular staff sees the other one.

What do you think is inside that book?

I think he set up a straw donor scam.

It's an end run
around campaign funding rules

that limit donations from individuals.

Oh, I know what it is.
Politicians were the original conmen.

Instead of cutting
one big check to himself

from a questionable source,

Jennings gets regular people
to write him smaller checks.

Then reimburses them under the table
for their contributions.

I think the second book
has a list of the straw donors

and the source of the illegal money.

-Well, who has access?
-His inner circle.

Reggie, our head of opposition research,
maybe a few others.

We have to find a way
to get you inside Jennings' inner circle.

NEAL: I got it.

-Bad cop, good criminal.
-No such thing.

Listen. It's a variation
on a con that I…

thought about running before.

The bad guy, the cop, that's you,
creates a problem for Jennings.

-And the good guy…
-That's you?

-Right. I provide the solution.
-Oh.

Listen, if I make Jennings
think that the FBI's on to him,

it will spook him. He'll burn his books.

Not if he thinks Bureau's
barking up the wrong tree.

Here's an old loan scandal
he was wrapped up in.

Yeah. He walked away clean
from that years ago.

But it might make him worried
if he thinks that the digging around…

Could uncover whatever he's really doing.

And make him nervous enough
to hire a fixer.

Who does he normally use
to cover up his problems?

Jennings' usual guy quit a few months ago,

the same time he started
his mystery meetings.

-This could work.
-All we need's a bad cop.

-I can do bad cop.
-I've seen you do mildly irritated cop.

Wow.

I hate these glad-handing events.

You picked the wrong job
if you don't want to shake hands.

-(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
-What?

-Sorry to interrupt, sir.
-Dylan, I said no more appointments.

Peter Burke, FBI.

Well, what can I do for you, Agent Burke?

-I came to say thank you.
-You're welcome.

-What did I do?
-Nothing yet.

But I'm gonna make
my career taking you down.

I'm sorry. Um…

Am I actually being accused of something?

The Michelson loan scandal.

The FBI looked into that scandal
years ago. They found nothing.

You really want to waste taxpayers' money
with another witch hunt?

I do.

I know if I start kicking over rocks,
something will crawl out.

And when it does,
it's gonna get your name, my name,

and the word "scandal"
on the same headline.

And then you figure
you can have any job you want?

Yeah. Maybe I'll take this office.

Why me?

Because I can tell you're dirty
just by looking at you.

So I'll keep digging
until I find something that will bury you.

You've got my word on that.

-How did I do?
-Nice acting.

-Who said I was acting?
-(CELL PHONE RINGING)

-Dylan. Did it work?
-Yep. Whatever you said,

-Jennings is freaked out.
-(INAUDIBLE)

He called an immediate war room.

-He called a war room.
-(CHUCKLES)

All right, keep us posted.

I'm the bad cop. Now it's your turn.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

Caffrey, that's my newspaper.

Relax. I'll give it back.

Touch my crossword
and I will put you back behind bars.

Oh, you do it in pen. I'm impressed.

I'm looking for inspiration, you know?

And I think I just found it.

What was the fallout
from your meeting with Jennings?

He called in some favors,
tried to get me fired.

Hughes is protecting me, which should
frustrate Jennings even further.

Excellent.

According to Dylan,
he's looking for a new fixer as we speak.

I didn't doubt you for a second.

Dylan put your name on the list,

but Jennings is still looking
at other people too.

So we need to make sure you get that job.

Well, I don't have an alias
with this type of background.

Hmm. You're about to get one,
courtesy of the FBI.

What do you need to know
about creating a background?

Nothing. We're the FBI.
You're good but we're better.

-You're now Benjamin Cooper.
-Wow, high school yearbook.

-You're definitely thorough.
-PETER: They're thorough.

Jennings doesn't mess around
with this stuff.

That means no anklet when you're with him.

-Yeah. Nice Photoshop work.
-We'll add the yearbook

to the school's archive
in case they check.

I finally get to be valedictorian.

-You weren't valedictorian?
-You have to graduate for that.

DIANA: We're giving you
a 4.0 from Harvard Law.

Harvard is so pedestrian.

Don't let Jones hear you say that.

After graduating, you did a stint at
the firm Brextan and Miller in Delaware.

Very exclusive and Grisham-esque.

This is perfect.

-Benjamin Cooper?
-That would be me.

Pleasure to meet you.

This is Reggie Mayfield,
head of opposition research.

-Benjamin.
-(NEAL SIGHS)

Thank you so much.

Well, if you called me,

means you've got a problem
on your hands, right?

We've got a fed on steroids
who's going after Gary

-about the Michelson…
-Details don't matter.

-Oh, I think they do. This FBI agent is…
-Don't worry about the agent.

Your constituents
aren't going to care about him.

Why won't they?

Because they'll be far more concerned
with your position on the new stadium.

What's he talking about?
Do you know anything about a new stadium?

No, nothing.

-What new stadium?
-That's exactly what you're gonna say.

"What new stadium?"

And when the reporter asks
what you're talking about,

deny you're in any way involved
with the talks to build it.

-There isn't going to be a new stadium.
-Now you're getting it.

Look, if there were
a new stadium being built,

which there isn't, why would I oppose it?

-Oh, you don't oppose it.
-I don't?

Course not. You just don't want them

building the stadium
in that particular location,

because that's where
you want them to build

the new children's park.

-May I, uh…
-Yeah.

There we go.

We're talking to several people
about this job…

All right.

Go on.

-Are you following any of this?
-Nope.

That's the point.
It's all a giant distraction.

Who's gonna care about
an old loan scandal of yours

when you're fighting against the system?

Against the corporate fat cats
who think overpaid athletes

are more important
than our city's children.

But the story won't hold up.

You've got less than a month
before the election.

It doesn't have to hold up.
We just have to distract, right?

You've got a problem.

I'm your solution, Senator.

Have a great day.

I like him.

Cancel the other interviews.

You got it.

Hey, do you have…

All right. First thing tomorrow. Bye.

-You don't get to "shh" me.
-Oh, okay.

Next time I'll let Jennings
hear your voice in the background.

-You're hired?
-Like I said, bad cop, good cop.

-Good criminal.
-Consultant.

Mmm.

So the stadium thing worked, huh?

In today's world, rumor is truth.

But you told him to deny
that there were any talks.

Exactly. Which means there must be talks.

This is why I hate politics.

Oh, uh, Elizabeth's still out of town,
right? You wanna grab a drink?

Can't. Uh, I owe Captain Shadduck a favor.

Gonna help the local PD with a stakeout.

Surveillance and deviled ham
till 4:00 a.m.

-You wanna join us?
-I'll pass.

-Thank you, though.
-All right.

(DOOR CLOSES)

Oh. Don't tell Elizabeth.

-(KNOCK ON DOOR)
-(GROANS)

-Hey.
-Hey.

-Oh, it's just you and Satchmo tonight?
-Yeah, just the dog and me.

-Elizabeth's still in San Francisco?
-She is. Can I get you a beer?

-Sure.
-All right.

So how was your dinner with Chrissy?

Hmm.

Oh, she's still having a tough time
adjusting to New York?

-We'll get through it.
-Hmm.

Yeah, you will. You will.

All right. Any luck
putting a face on our mystery man?

He was good. He avoided our cameras

and the surveillance cameras
on the street.

PETER: Hmm.

Ooh. Just bits and pieces of a face.

Well, put the pieces together
and we get this.

Ha. I think I saw this guy
in a horror movie.

Heh. Our patchwork man.

I'm running it through the facial
recognition database discreetly.

-We'll see what we can get.
-What about the location of the music box?

Anybody poking around?

Couple of feelers,
but no one knows where it is.

-Except you?
-Just like you asked, boss.

Are you sure you don't wanna know
where I'm keeping it?

Oh, it's safer
for the both of us if I don't.

This guy knows something. Let's find him.

And Caffrey? You sure
you want to keep all this from him?

Neal's still recovering from Kate's death.

I don't want to reopen that wound
with any sort of false hope.

Once we have something concrete,
then I'll tell Neal.

(SIGHS)

Diana, I hate sneaking around like this.
We're supposed to be the good guys.

Hey, we are the good guys.

Boy, this guy's a professional.

If we're looking for him,

there is a fair chance
he's looking for us.

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING)

Morning, Dylan.

-Jennings isn't in yet.
-Good.

I need some time in his office.

Well, the, uh, the door's locked,

and Jennings and Reggie
are the only ones with keys

but they'll be here any minute.

So distract them.

-Can you do that?
-Um…

-I'm a terrible liar.
-Good.

We need more terrible liars in politics.

Come on. Come on.

Jackpot.

-Makes sense?
-Worked out fine.

DYLAN: Senator. You're in early.

Senator, I wanted to go over
next week's schedule with you. Just…

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING)

Gotcha.

(INAUDIBLE)

Good morning, Senator.

Well, nice and early.

Good start already.

I was gonna go grab a smoke
before we jump in. Do you have a light?

-Smoking makes you look weak.
-I'll remember that.

Oh, uh, we should discuss my fee.

Now, I was hoping
we could do it off the books.

I'm sure we can come to an arrangement.

NEAL: Mmm.

-(LAPTOP BEEPS)
-(CELL PHONE RINGS)

(CLEARS THROAT)
How's your first day at work?

I've taken up smoking.

-Politics is already corrupting you.
-Yeah?

-Did you get the picture I sent?
-Yeah.

The symbol is the flower of Aphrodite.
Ran it through the ACS database.

It came up with two coffee shops,
a bakery, a winery,

and a high-class escort service.

Politicians and hookers.
That one's as old as time.

Listen, there was a word
written inside the matchbook.

Cinnamon 212.

-All caps except the vowels.
-Got it.

Any luck convincing Jennings
to pay you off the books?

Yeah, yeah.
He, uh, made a call to get the money.

I put an ear to the door.

He called the man on the end
of the line Darrow or Narrow.

All right, break's over. Get back to work.

C-I-N-N-A-M…

(PHONE RINGS)

-Hello?
-ELIZABETH: Hey, sweetie.

Oh, hey, El. How's San Francisco?

It's amazing here.
I biked across the bay this morning

to watch the sunrise.

How was the sunrise?

It reminded me of Belize,
which makes me miss you even more.

You got any big plans for tonight?

Nope, just catching up on some work.

WOMAN: (ON WEBSITE) Are you looking
for high-class female companionship?

-Uh, what kind of work is that?
-Oh, it's not what it sounds like.

Our discreet service gives you
a chance to spend the day

with the girl of your dreams.

-Or that.
-We'll introduce youto fashion models,

pageant winners, beau…

Oh, I can't wait to hear this explanation.

It's research, I swear.

NEAL: All right, has the press
picked up on the stadium story?

-Couple of reporters have asked about it.
-And we denied it?

-Of course.
-Good.

Make sure to specify that he did not meet
with the zoning committee.

-He didn't meet with the committee.
-Exactly.

Back-date a meeting in his books
showing it was scheduled and leak it.

-We'll say he canceled.
-WOMAN: But why?

(SIGHS) This doesn't make sense.

Of course it does. Jennings is a maverick.

That's why
the FBI's digging into his past.

He's upsetting all the right people.

WOMAN: But there is no stadium project.
We can't create one out of thin air.

Don't be so cynical.
That is exactly what we're going to do.

These people want a park.

That's why we're going
to deny that Jennings

has met with a couple
of big corporations…

-Which corporations?
-Doesn't matter.

Pull their names out of a hat.

We're going to deny
that Gary has met with them

about forcing a bond measure that would
turn the park into a new stadium.

The more we deny there is smoke,
the more the press will see fire.

Listen to him.

Let's take a 15-minute break, everyone.

Benjamin, you stay.

What's going on?

We may have found a solution
to our problem with our FBI agent.

That's not Mrs. Burke.

-When were these taken?
-Last night.

If Burke's having an affair,
we can use that.

-We know who the girl is yet?
-Not yet.

I'll find out.

Well, I know who she is.

She's a prostitute.

-How do you figure?
-This Burke is an FBI guy.

He's a control freak.

He's not gonna have an affair.
It's too sloppy.

He may be right.

We can use her.

These pictures aren't enough
to take Burke out.

But if we can get her
to meet with him again

and she's under our thumb…

We might have someone
who can help us with that.

You told them Diana was a hooker?

Captain Shadduck sure cleans up nice.

The stakeout was canceled.
Diana came over to work.

Why am I explaining myself to you?

-Not everything's a conspiracy, Neal.
-I hope that's true.

-I've never lied to you.
-Oh, come on, Neal.

-You lie for a living.
-Not to you.

I may have let you draw
certain conclusions

that weren't correct
but never an actual lie.

All right. So one of Jennings' guys
was standing in my backyard taking these.

Yeah, you got to them.
They think you're having an affair.

Took a risk and told them
Diana was a prostitute,

and they took the bait.

Told me to find her and put her in touch
with a guy they know named Barrow.

Ah, your mystery man Jennings called
to get you paid off the books.

-Mmm.
-So maybe the Aphrodite Escort Service

is where the cash is coming from
to pay the straw donors.

That's what I think. Can you set Diana up
with an alias as good as mine?

As an escort? Sure.

Diana. Can you come here a minute?

-You gonna tell her?
-I'm not telling her.

-You're the one who made her a hooker.
-You're the one who's sleeping with her.

-You got a point.
-Yeah?

Neal told Jennings you're a hooker.
You and I are having an affair.

You're gonna go meet
with an escort service.

-Okay, anything else?
-No.

(EXHALES)

It's good to have her back.

MOZZIE: Did you confront the suit
about the pictures?

Yeah, I did.
He said it was a misunderstanding.

Oh, right. So was the Bay of Pigs.

So you think he's looking
into who killed Kate in his off hours?

I suppose that's a good thing.

I want to know what he's found.

He's trying to protect you.

Oh, come on, Moz, I don't need protecting.

It's only fair. We keep secrets
from the suits all the time.

Now they have their own.

There's a certain universal
synchronicity to it all.

Spare me your circle of life crap.
What are you writing?

Oh, it's a letter campaign
to stop this new stadium from being built.

There's a letter campaign?

You really need to pay more attention

to what's going on
in the world around you.

Yeah.

Listen, Moz, you should know that…

That you got a real shot at stopping this.

Keep it up.

(FEMALE SINGER PANTING)

All the boys say

I'm so crazy

I'll scare you

Double dare you

It is really exciting in the van.

It's…

-Can I just go in there?
-You'll sit there and you'll like it.

Now pay attention.

You must be Lana.

Roger Barrow.

A friend of mine suggested
that you and I could do some business.

-DIANA: What kind of business?
-That's our guy.

BARROW: The word is…

-What do we know about Barrow?
-Arrested three times.

All in Chicago.
Aggravated assault, extortion,

last one was for attempted murder.

Attempted? At least we know
he's not very good at it.

Oh, well, his target was shot dead
in a mugging two weeks later.

Okay. Maybe he is good at it.

BARROW: I want to know
about your FBI friend.

-What do you want?
-Here we go.

-What do you think?
-Money.

Look around. My girls make ten K a night.

The richest men in New York come here.

You want to work for me,
you'll make in a week

what you normally make in a year.

I'd like that.

Here's the thing.
I need to know that I can trust you.

And I need to make sure
that you know what you're doing.

This is for the penthouse suite.

Pick any guy at the bar.

I want his ten grand in my hand
by 4:00 a.m.

Ten thousand in cash.

Guys, I was not prepared for an audition.

I'm either walking out of here
or taking some guy up to the penthouse.

So, what's the plan?

Where'd Caffrey go?

(CHATTER, LAUGHTER)

Can I buy you a drink?

All right, let's make the best of this.
We have three hours.

If we can get $10,000,

we can follow the money trail,
see if it leads back to Jennings.

Peter, we can't get a cash request
out of the Bureau that fast.

I know.

DIANA: You sure you can afford me?

I'm pretty good
at scrounging up loose change.

Well, prove it.

Peter, if you're wondering
where to get $10,000

meet our mutual friend at my place.

I was afraid he was gonna say that.

About that drink…

-You've come to the right place.
-Cut the crap, Mozzie.

Can you get us the ten grand or not?

Yes. But first, some ground rules.

I want full immunity about anything
you may see or hear tonight.

Let's just say I'll owe you one.

I accept your counter offer.
I need your shoelace.

My shoelaces are gonna get us the $10,000?

Rule number two, no further questions.

I'm doing this more out
of a morbid curiosity than anything else.

I'll also need a magnet
and a Sports Illustrated.

This is a scavenger hunt now?

I refer you to rule number two.

Magnet.

No Sports Illustrated. I've got the
New York Journal magazine supplement.

That'll do, pig.

That'll do.

(SIGHS)

Oh, I also need a $20 bill.

Great. Thanks.

Just a key, yes.

Another piece of the puzzle.

And don't forget a hammer,
a crowbar, and a radio.

Scavenger hunt?

"Life is more manageable
when thought of as a scavenger hunt

"as opposed to a surprise party."

-Jimmy Buffet.
-You're driving.

You sure Barrow won't recognize you?

(INAUDIBLE)

Jennings keeps him far away
from the campaign.

Mmm. I don't blame him.

You know, if I didn't know any better,

I'd say you weren't
attracted to me at all.

How's that?

Not bad.

Is this doing anything for you?

Not a damn thing.

(CHUCKLES)

What were you gonna do
if I hadn't come in?

Well… I'd have put this strawberry
in that guy's mouth,

taken him up to my room,

put a gun between his ribs

and told him to shut up and sit tight,

or I'd arrest him for solicitation.

-That is really sexy.
-Yeah.

We're looking for unit R-39.

-Oh, radio, please.
-Why?

Yeah, yeah. Rule number two.

(CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING)

So why are we doing this?

We need the money
to take down a corrupt politician.

Oh, I hope it's that guy
who's running against Jennings.

It is Jennings?

Oh, forget it. He's the only one
fighting against the stadium.

-There is no stadium.
-Exactly.

Because of Gary Jennings.
Those children need a place to play.

All right, listen. Listen to me.

-If he is innocent…
-Which he is.

…then this won't matter.

Fine. Just note that I'm assisting
under extreme duress.

Noted. Here it is.

Well, it's actually behind R-39.

-How are we supposed to get behind that?
-Uh-uh!

MAN: What's all this noise?

I'm over on six doing my rounds.

I can hear this crap
from all the way over there.

All apologies, Eddie.

-Mr. C?
-Yeah.

-Hey, how the hell are you?
-Good.

-How's Mr. F?
-Good.

Listen, uh, Eddie, I need a little favor.

-You ever take a bath in champagne?
-(LAUGHING) Okay.

Wow.

Room service.

What? I'm keeping up appearances.

I'm supposed to be
a big spender, remember?

Caffrey, this isn't what we're here for.

Look, our cover is that
we're enjoying ourselves.

I'd say this is exactly
what we're here for.

What? So that's a no
to the champagne bath, or…

(FORKLIFT BEEPING)

Mr. C and Mr. F?

Oh, there's a long,
strange story attached to that.

I'm sure. Now what?

New York Journal magazine.

-What do I do with this?
-Stay here and read it.

"There are many things of which a wise man
might wish to be ignorant."

-Emerson.
-Very good.

"All of your quotes
are getting on my nerves."

Peter Burke.

(METAL CLANGING)

-Well…
-Okay, you're right.

It doesn't hurt to relax a bit.

(SIGHS)

I wonder how many rooms like this
I've stayed in.

Wanna know a hotel room secret?

Pretty sure I know every secret there is.

All hotel room paintings
are locked onto the walls, right?

Sure.

I mean, they're not hard to unlock,
but why bother?

Paintings aren't worth stealing,

and the hotel doesn't put
safes behind them.

They don't. But there's something better.

There's a little mark right here,

so you know something's there.

It's for people who live out of hotels.

A sort of secret art,
to make the experience more bearable.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

How did you know about this?

I'm the daughter of a diplomat.
I grew up in fancy hotels.

You're the daughter of a diplomat?

Why are you so surprised?

Diplomats' daughters don't normally know
how to field strip a semiautomatic.

My bodyguard taught me.

Oh, right. You had a bodyguard.

His name was Charlie.
He practically raised me.

He was like a father to me.

What?

He died in the line of duty,
protecting me.

Were you there when it happened?

I was.

My first date with Kate,

we conned our way
into some rich guy's hotel room.

And we ordered
the most expensive food they had.

Did you know there's a $1,000-hamburger?

-You're joking.
-We ordered five.

(CHUCKLES)

And from our window,

there was a view
of this run-down old bridge.

I'm sure it was a mess up close,

but from our angle,

the way the sun hit it…

it was beautiful.

And we never wanted to leave that room.

It should've been me on that plane.

But it wasn't.

I know you blame yourself
for what happened to Kate.

I blame myself for Charlie.

But Charlie wouldn't
have wanted me to do that.

He'd have wanted me to go on with my life.

I didn't know Kate,

but I'd guess she'd want the same thing.

Now, do you have a pencil?

I do. Why?

Because there's a painting in this room
with nothing behind it.

(CHUCKLES)

(METAL CREAKING, CLATTERING)

Everything all right back there?

MOZZIE: Keep reading.

(CLATTERING)

Your money, sir. We should go.

You need to get these serial numbers
logged as quickly as possible.

We have ten minutes.

We get those numbers,
we can trace them back to Jennings.

How are Caffrey and Diana holding up?

How do you think?

-You're lying to me.
-I'm not. I swear I'm not.

There's no way Peter had a mustache.

For a month. It was amazing.

I would've broken out
of prison to see that.

-(LAUGHS)
-(DOOR LOCK BEEPS)

Barrow has a key.

You know, I'd say, "Get a room," but…

-What if he works for Barrow?
-I know who he is.

It was worth a try.

Great.

-I think we should stay here.
-Hey, Hef.

Hmm…

Thank you. We'll do it again sometime.

So when do we start
making some real money?

How is it that you always get
the penthouse suite with the girl

and I end up
with the sweaty bald-headed guy

at a warehouse in Queens?

-Stop that.
-Can I see a picture of the 'stache?

-No. I burned all of them. They're burned.
-Please?

-What's with the armband?
-It's Save the Park Day.

-Oh.
-Hey.

-Save the park.
-Oh, yes. Of course.

Does Mozzie know
that the one conspiracy theory

that he's falling for is actually true?

Hey, who's to say
it's a conspiracy theory?

Perception drives the reality, Peter.

-All right?
-(CELL PHONE RINGING)

Uh-oh.

This is Benjamin.

All right. Relax, Gary.
This is what we've been preparing for.

MAN: Drive the ball just like that?
KID: Yeah.

Call up a reporter
friendly to the campaign.

I want them to ask you
about the loan scandal, okay?

And I want you to answer
with a simple question.

"Did you ever play stickball?"

REPORTER: The FBI
has reopenedtheir investigation

into the Michelson loan scandal.
Is this true?

JENNINGS: It is.

But let me ask you something.
Have you ever playedstickball?

REPORTER: No, I have not, Senator.

All you need to play stickball
is a broomstickand a ball.

It's the ultimate form
of democracy, right?

Anyone can play it. Even Timmy Nolan.

REPORTER: Who is Timmy Nolan?

Timmy Nolan was a friend of mine
that I used to play with.

And he's also the reason
why I am fighting so hard

to make this park a reality.
Look, we all know

why a five-year-old closed investigation
has suddenly resurfaced.

It's because there are people out there

who would rather use this land
for their own profit

than to let the Timmy Nolans
of this city have a place to play.

Well, I'll tell you this.

They can come at me
with whatever they want,

but I will not back down.

-(CROWD APPLAUDING)
-All right. Yeah.

Good work.
Good job on Timmy Nolan, my friend.

Cooper.

-What's wrong?
-Nothing.

-Thanks, I'll check in later.
-Nice job.

Look, I need to know what's going on,
or I can't fix it.

-If you can't trust me…
-You believe in Gary Jennings, right?

Yeah. I wouldn't have
done this if I didn't.

He's gonna be governor
in the next five years.

He's got his sights set even higher.

To make it there,
we need to take out this FBI agent.

Didn't you just watch the news?
This story's buried. I took care of it.

For now, yeah.
But I've seen guys like Burke.

You buried him now.
But that's just gonna heat him up.

What's your plan?

This prostitute, Lana…

I think she knows a lot more
about Burke than she's letting on.

-You want to talk to her?
-Not me. I've got a guy.

-Barrow?
-Yeah. He'll get it out of her.

What's he gonna do to the girl?

He'll scare her.

-Maybe rough her up a little.
-Uh-huh.

-And what if he gets out of control?
-Is that so bad?

When's Barrow gonna have
this discussion with the girl?

Any time now.

Here we go.

Diana's entering Barrow's hotel room.

(CELL PHONE VIBRATING)

Diana's in trouble. You two come with me.
Jones, call for backup.

Move away from the door.

What's going on?

Just sit down and you won't get hurt.

I promise.

-You're lying.
-I'm not.

We're just gonna have a chat.

You should know you're threatening
an undercover FBI agent.

That's even more reason
for me to pull the trigger.

Put the gun down
and you'll walk out of here.

Really?

Really.

Draw and I'll put a bullet
through your shoulder.

-(GUNSHOT)
-(YELLS)

(GRUNTING)

-Told you.
-(DOOR CRASHES)

Aw. You were worried.

Well, not about you.

I was worried what you'd do to him.

Think we've got enough
to arrest Jennings now.

Yeah.

I think we do.

-(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING)
-(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

-You get what you need?
-Barrow rolled on Jennings.

He figured a confession
was better for the soul.

Jones just finished arresting Reggie.

And he found a copy
of the second set of books on him.

-Now for the big guy.
-Oh, wait for it.

NEAL: Yeah. (LAUGHING)

Picture perfect.

Ah, I don't think
this is the kind of headline

you're looking for, Agent Burke.

"Rogue FBI agent arrests innocent man."

(CHUCKLES) You're a saint. Isn't he?

Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I can almost see the halo. Yeah.

Hey, what do you think? Uh…
Hang the dogs playing poker on that wall?

That would really bring
this room together.

Senator Jennings, you're under arrest.

This is ridiculous. On what charge?

Oh, a bunch of them.

Campaign finance fraud
and as an accessory to murder.

-He also knows about Barrow.
-I also know about Barrow.

Nothing to say to that?

I want my lawyer.

Good choice.

(WINCES)

-Oh, Peter.
-Hmm?

A new bond measure has been placed
on the ballot that,if passed,

will assure this field
will be the new home

of Timmy Nolan Memorial Park.

-Who's Timmy Nolan?
-I have no idea.

-You guys have to invent him.
-…greater good ofcommunity.

In this case, by a little boy
named Timmy Nolan

and an old-fashioned game of stickball.

Look at you. You got a park built.

Peter, how could you keep this from me?

I'm sorry, boss. He needed to know.

-Neal…
-I expected more Magnum, P.I.

And less Super Mario.

-I burned all of those.
-(LAUGHING)

-How did… Give me that.
-No, no.

-Come on.
-It's more Burt Reynolds, no?

-I'm gonna take a poll.
-No, you're not gonna take a poll.

NEAL: (IMITATING MARIO) I'm Mario.

Oh, that's funny. You look good in orange.

(DIANA LAUGHS)

That's for making me flirt with Caffrey.

All right. Fair enough. Fair enough.

(IN NORMAL VOICE) Free. Who wants it?
Who wants it? Take it, you guys.

(LAUGHTER)

-NEAL: I mean…
-(PETER SIGHS)

What else you have?

Facial recognition came back.

-And?
-Nothing on our mystery man.

(PETER SIGHS)

Who are you?
