Law & Order: Organized Crime

In the nation's largest city,

the vicious and violent members of the underworld

are hunted by the detectives

of the Organized Crime Control Bureau.

These are their stories.

This is between you and me.

And you better remember that or you're gonna

end up in a shallow grave.

I'm worried about how many lines you've crossed.

One of us has got to be unimpeachable.

Who's Miles?

Well, he's a friend of mine.

Things keep up like this, your boy Stabler's

gonna be my son-in-law.

I am done playing your games!

You're done when I tell you you're done.

Bye-bye Sebastian.

- Sarge? - Untie him.

Oh, my God. There's a sixth target.

This is the main substation that

controls the city's entire power grid.

I plan to burn this city to the ground.

Pretty sure Wheatley just took the whole city hostage.

This is Sergeant Bell, Organized Crime Task Force.

Our main actor is Richard Wheatley,

white male, 50s, considered armed and dangerous.

He is now in control of the city's power grid

from inside the SOC.

Do not attempt entry.

I repeat, do not attempt entry.

Got that? Stand down.

Copy that, this is Sergeant Kim, DHS.

We have SWAT, FBI, JTTF waiting on orders.

The perimeter is sealed.

We're outside the gates, ready to go.

State police advising that Nassau County just went out,

all except a swath of Oyster Bay Cove.

Where Wheatley used to live. Definitely playing games.

Okay, leaders are about to gather

in the situation room in OEM.

Wheatley's gonna give his list of demands.

He doesn't know we're listening.

Mr. Wheatley?

Oh, hey.

How are you?

I was just making sure the substation block houses

are secured against any misguided attempts at heroism.

Mr. Wheatley is preparing

to play them like a Stradivarius.

Now, I only have three requests,

and they're fairly simple and straightforward.

My last request, which I'll tell you first,

is a private jet, gassed and ready

to fly out of Teterboro.

I already have my own pilot already standing by.

Know that I've already put measures in place

to discourage any kind of interference

with my travels once I've taken off.

What measures?

Best not to ask, and best never to find out.

My second request

is my son, Richard Jr.

I want him released from prison immediately

and brought to me here.

And I want my undercover that you murdered back.

And last but certainly not least,

I want Elliot Stabler

to pay

for his transgressions.

You mean, pay with his badge? You want him off the force?

That would be a step in the right direction.

But no.

I want him to pay with his very soul.

Our tech experts want to talk to you.

Don't try anything cute.

Why the rolling blackouts when he

could've shut down the entire city?

That would've blown out the system

and with it, his leverage.

Hey, man. Malachi.

It's an honor to finally meet you.

Whoa, are you serious?

Please take those stupid things off.

No, I'm afraid we can't do that.

It's cool. I'm used to them.

So Wheatley's holed up in the ConElectric SOC,

holding the whole city hostage.

How can I help?

Back in the day, you wrote a plan

for how to disable the power grid sector by sector.

Sadly, there was a time when I thought

that might be a worthy thing to do.

Well, it looks like Wheatley's following your plan

to the letter, so.

Where's he gonna hit next? - It's up to him.

I left room in the design for other artists

to choose their own colors.

Well, at least the major hospitals

haven't been shut down.

Most of them have generators,

but it's only a matter of time.

Unless you give him what he wants.

So again.

How can I help? - Bottom line?

Is there any way to override the SOC?

The whole point of the SOC is you can't override it.

Maybe. It's a long shot.

You see these yellow lines?

They lead to an old, out-of-use power plant

just behind the abandoned asylum on Staten Island.

It used to be the main backup system for the entire SOC.

It's pretty ancient, it's built in the '80s,

upgraded in the '90s.

Presumably, it's not online.

True, but if you can get to it,

it's possible you can gain access

to the system Wheatley's controlling.

I believe you confiscated the schematics

Wheatley stole from the archives?

Right here.

That's it.

Staten Island - Steam/ - Electric Plant.

This tech is antique.

Pre-world wide web.

- I'm a coder. - Yeah, me too.

We're gonna need you to come with us.

- Not a chance. - We're under strict orders.

He's not even supposed to be out of his cell.

Most of Staten Island is down in the power outage.

I mean, the Interstate is bumper to bumper

in apocalyptic gridlock.

Find a way there, and I'll be standing by.

I'll talk you through it.

Sergeant Bell?

Eight hours ago, the city was struck

by a series of rolling blackouts.

City officials have yet to give a reason...

Jet, sit tight for a few more hours.

If the power's not back up, head out to Staten Island.

Mama, open the door.

Hey.

Elliot, what's going on out there?

It's like chaos.

Are they gonna get the power back?

Not yet, but we're on our way to a meeting

about it right now. Are you okay?

- Yeah. - Not to worry, Detective.

She's in good hands.

Yeah, I'm in good hands, but Eli's not here,

and I don't know where he is.

I already told you he's with his sister

in Hoboken, do you remember that?

- You told me? - I did.

- That's bad. - It's okay.

But thank God he's safe, and Miles

got a cheeseboard, so we're okay.

Where'd you get the cheeseboard?

I snagged it down at the corner deli.

Would you believe it? A lot of restaurants

are giving away free food.

It's really wild out there.

You had to leave my mother alone?

Just for ten minutes.

- Stabler. - One second.

Miles, please, we discussed this,

I don't want my mother being left alone.

No, no, you're right.

My bad. Won't happen again.

Great, okay.

Elliot.

You're not the boss of him.

We have enough food and water for two more days.

Any longer and the city is in full-scale crisis.

If he cuts power to nursing homes and hospitals,

there'll be an instant death toll in the thousands.

If we give him his son it just means what?

There's two Wheatleys holed up there instead of one.

I'm afraid I have to agree, Mr. Mayor.

If we don't accede to any of his requests,

Wheatley's liable to feel backed into a corner.

And have you thought about what happens if you do

accede to his demands?

Sergeant Ayanna Bell

of the Organized Crime Task Force.

Detective Elliot Stabler, I presume.

What do you advise us to do?

Do we give Mr. Wheatley his son?

Absolutely not.

You'd rather we gave him your soul?

As you recall, Kips Bay encompasses NYU

and Bellevue Medical Centers.

And I understand their generators are

unreliable.

My associate Gunther will meet them

at the northeast loading dock and escort Richie

into the command center.

If anyone other than Gunther and Richie

attempts to enter the building...

We understand what you're saying, Mr. Wheatley.

No one else enters the SOC.
