The Night Agent

Mrs. Hagan?

He's got a gun!

Chelsea arrington! Brian was my brother.

He loved his job. He wouldn't hurt a fly.

I found Brian mott's phone. She lied about mott having a gun.

She lied about not knowing him. She's been meeting with him for months.

David hut son, co-founder of heroes in healing,

charity for injured veterans.

He's the one funding Raúl zapata.

Raúl zapata and the lfs are a small terrorist organization.

Now they're back on the scene.

The crypto wallet the lfs was using,

there's been several new deposits that have been made this week.

They're planning something else.

- What now? - I think you should call your dad.

I'll give you Jay. His life for Isabel's.

And she won't publish.

It's insufficient now.

- Get it done tonight. - Journalist still the main priority?

Journalist, whistleblower, agent, and Jacob Monroe.

You lied to me about what you do.

You're a spy. You hunt bad guys, and I know it.

I am a spy.

I have access to all the intel you need to bring down zapata,

the whole lfs, and to stop their next attack.

I want every dirty spook, agent, and politician that you own.

And once I've ripped up your whole operation,

you still go away for life.

So it's a cipher.

How's it work?

If I told you, you wouldn't be motivated to protect me, would you?

- You got him? - Got him.

Where's Peter?

I don't care. It's too risky. There's an investigation.

I can't go back to them empty-handed.

There is no "them." There is one man.

One man who the FBI suspects of financing terrorism.

So no, tell him the kitchen's closed.

Please. I just need the photos.

I said no. It's gone far enough.

It's my kid's cancer treatment, okay? They're nearly bankrupting us.

If I don't follow through, they're gonna stop paying for them.

I'm sorry. I really am.

If it's just about money, I can help.

Forget it. I'll just do it on my own.

No. Bri... Brian. No, stop.

Hey, li... no, we have options.

Brian. Listen to me.

- I said stop! - No, you have options.

You're untouchable. But me?

If I don't deliver, my life, my kid's life...

okay, we can protect you.

Who's "we"? Your husband doesn't know how deep you are in this.

- But he will if you don't... - if I don't what?

Sorry. I'm not gonna be the only one caught up in this.

Get out. Just get out.

- Just move, please. - Brian…

I'm not gonna ask you again.

Brian, just leave.

Mrs. Hagan? Everything all right?

Help, please!

What are you doing? What are you...

no, stop! Get out of here!

Somebody help!

He's got a gun!

Jenny?

Is this really necessary?

You know, probably not.

I gotta check in with the deputy director,

see if there's any update on Peter's whereabouts.

Make sure he doesn't try anything.

I'll make sure.

Good. Can we talk?

There's only one thing I wanna hear from you right now.

Peter left to save you.

You came back. He didn't. What happened?

- He bought me time to escape. - Bullshit.

He wanted you in prison.

- Where is he? What did you do? - Nothing.

- I don't know where he is. - And I'm supposed to believe you?

After you lied to my face all night?

Did you know we were gonna get attacked in the middle of our conversation?

Of course not.

My only priority was to keep you safe.

Peter understood the importance of that.

He was helping me.

I have leverage against walcott capital

that could make them call off their killer.

That's what I was doing.

That's who's behind all of this.

- The bank? - Specifically Freya Myers.

On paper, she's some overpaid c-suite nobody.

But really, her job is to oversee the accounts

of a certain type of very private, high-net-worth clientele.

You mean criminals like you.

Criminals worse than me.

People who overpay her institution

to keep the details of their business dealings under lock and key.

So you're saying she killed Mike and the senator.

Yes.

Jay's boss who attacked him, Benjamin Wallace?

He was on her payroll.

She represents Raúl zapata's domestic banking network.

Her job was to keep that hidden.

The secret got out because of mistakes she made,

and now she's trying to cover her tracks.

Now, don't you understand?

It's her neck on the line when you publish.

That's why she wants you dead

and anyone else that can prove what she's doing.

This morning, I went to retrieve a very important book,

a very rare misprint of grimm's fairy tales.

You've seen it before.

This copy, and this copy alone,

is the key to accessing a cloud database

with a cache of documents that could be used to stop Freya.

How?

By exposing her complicity in my operation.

And through Peter, I was gonna turn it all over to the FBI.

But the only way it would work is if I got out of there alive.

And Peter understood the value in that.

So he did everything he could to help me.

I was turning myself in.

But without the book, everything was for nothing.

Everything was for you.

- All I ever wanted was a father. - Isabel...

- but you've made that impossible. - Isabel, I'm sick.

Bad people get sick too. It doesn't change who they are.

Any luck?

No sign of Peter.

FBI has units looking. NYPD is assisting.

So far, nothing.

So, what do we do now?

The deputy director wants me focused on figuring out

whatever we can about the next lfs attack.

But Jay is still in surgery. Without his lead, we have nothing.

Get me in front of David hut son. I'll get the details out of him.

That's his name, right? The lfs financier you arrested yesterday?

Let me talk to him.

The FBI won't go for it.

Well, then go around the FBI.

Isn't that what night action does?

If Peter's alive, he's being held to protect zapata's interests.

If there's gonna be another attack,

hut son moved that money on zapata's orders.

Hutson can get us zapata.

Stop him, you stop the lfs, and you get your partner back.

Why do you even care?

Because Raúl zapata is responsible for what happened to Isabel's mother.

He took Sofia away from me.

Don't you dare use my mother's name to justify your actions.

And what makes you so sure he'll talk?

Because I can be very persuasive when I need to be.

Listen, I'm gonna give you some cash for dinner.

You can order in. Pizza, burgers, whatever you want.

But water, not soda.

You're gonna be late again?

I thought we were gonna continue our campaign.

I'm sorry. We will this weekend.

But it is still a school night,

so I want you to go through your workbook before video games.

- Okay? - Okay.

Hey.

You all right?

You're going off on some cool spy mission, and I'm stuck here doing homework.

Being a spy isn't some fantasy game or a work of fiction.

It's a hard job, and it takes a lot of Patience.

And most of the time it's really boring.

Well, maybe if you told me what the mission was, I could help.

One more night, okay?

And then we'll go sightseeing, just me and you.

Fine.

What's this?

Your secret identity.

You wanted one, right?

Well, here it is.

Orion?

Orion is your new code name. What do you think?

I love it.

So cool.

- Thanks, dad. - You earned it.

- Hey, dad? - Yeah?

Can I go get my backpack out of the car before you go?

I'll be quick.

Sure thing.

Hello?

We have Jacob Monroe.

What do you mean "have him"?

I mean I have him handcuffed to a radiator in Peter sutherland's apartment.

He's in my custody, and he's cooperative so far.

What's he saying?

He wants to sit down with David hut son.

Says he's got nothing to do with the lfs,

but he has information that can help us stop their next attack.

And you believe him?

I'm not sure yet.

Let me make sure I understand this correctly.

On Peter sutherland's word alone,

we're to believe that this Jacob Monroe character

is his elusive menace,
