Web of Lies

Thank you.

- Don't stop on my account.

You have something to say?

- Yeah. You were supposed to call me.

What's he meant to be?

- ... I would've thought you'd know.

- That's Isidore of Seville.

Patron Saint of Computers and Computer Geeks everywhere.

- You certainly fit the bill.

- Maybe I should get you one.

We'll have a matching set.

Please, I'm no geek!

Yeah, right! Why?

Just 'cause you look as hot as you do

and you don't live in your parents' basement?

Stop!

Besides...

what's wrong with being a geek?

Nothing.

It's one of the reasons I love you so much.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Just thinking about my meeting I have tomorrow.

- Well, why don't you spend less time worrying about that

and spend a little more time worrying about me?

Josh?

Are you coming back to bed?

Yeah, babe.

I'm just finishing something for work, OK? I'll be right there.

Are you going already?

- Yeah, I got that meeting.

- Will I still see you for dinner?

I promise.

Yeah.

No, it's done. I'm on my way.

Where are you now?

But that's not what we agreed to. You said...

Say that again.

No. No, there's no problem at all.

We'll be there.

Josh!

JOSH!

Ms. Turner?

- Mr. Brobin said you'd be gone all week.

- Yes, I figured 4 days without me was all you could handle.

- I just wasn't expecting... I mean, are you OK?

- I'm fine. Did you reschedule with the development team?

- I've got it pencilled in for next Thursday,

but I can move it back--

No, Thursday's perfect.

And the outline from the testing team?

- It will be on your desk by the end of the day.

- Great. What am I forgetting? - Sorry?

- There was something else I was supposed to handle.

Um...

I think it's all covered.

No, check my schedule.

There was something else. I'm sure of it.

- Yeah, you wanted me to clear an afternoon this week

so you could...

s-so you could buy Josh a birthday present.

I'm sorry.

- No, it's... It's fine.

- I can always push those test reports back a couple of days

if you need time.

- Karl, I realize it's because you care, but I'm OK.

Anything else?

- The Atlantic Ridge Bank people just came.

Should I put them in the boardroom?

- Yes, please do. Thank you.

- Not interrupting, am I? - Mr. Brobin.

- Karl, would you let them know we'll be in in just in a minute?

- Yeah. - Thanks.

So?

So...

You're here.

- I have work to do and this is my office.

Where else should I be?

- You didn't have to rush back, Abby.

- What I need is to do stuff, to work.

Get my mind off of things.

I was going crazy at home.

And besides, I wasn't gonna miss today.

- Do the police know anything yet?

Ongoing investigation.

They'll keep me posted. Blah, blah...

You know, Abby, look, this meeting, these guys...

Michael, stop worrying!

OK. Not worried!

Hey, these guys, despite whatever they say,

they need a new system.

Now, Neumann's a good guy.

I met him a couple of years ago when I did a lecture.

You gave a lecture? Where?

- At the university downtown, thank you!

Give him straight answers. You're gonna be fine.

You got this?

Just watch me.

- Thank you. - Thank you so much.

- Kenneth Kelby, Oswald Neumann, this is Abigail Turner.

Abby has been our lead designer for the past 4 years,

and she is at the top of her field

and ForSecure is her baby.

And I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say

that ForSecure is the cutting edge of security technology.

I've asked Abby to come down and walk us through it. Abby?

Thank you.

- Shall we get started, gentleman?

24-hour-a-day trading.

Nearly $4 billion in daily turnover.

The foreign-exchange market in today's digital age is enormous.

And so that makes it a target.

Viruses, hackers, Trojans, worms, thieves...

Quite simply put, gentlemen,

there are people trying to steal your money.

And make no mistake, they have the means to do it.

What we offer here at Custodis

is the ultimate in protection.

It's the pinnacle of foreign-exchange security.

We call it ForSecure.

ForSecure is a unique,

centralized online software security system

designed specifically to protect global forex transactions.

- Sorry to interrupt you, Ms. Turner,

but I'm fairly certain

that we've already got a security system in place.

Not like this one.

After you.

Thanks.

Well, I'll say, what I've seen so far has me impressed.

- I'm not so sure your colleague shares the same opinion.

Well, it's a good thing

they leave the banking to the bankers

and the IT to the IT department, right?

Maybe that's why

Abby tries to keep me out of these meetings!

So is this...

- The mainframe, yes. - The mainframe.

Do you think I could...

- Yes, absolutely. After you, Abby.

The fastest processors and the most powerful computer.

Wow, very impressive.

We think so.

- Well, I'm glad you enjoyed the presentation.

I did.

After you.

And do you have all the specs you need

on the ForSecure system?

- I do. - Good.

- But listen, Mr. Brobin,

I don't think I can give you an answer right away.

But I'll take this back to my people.

And if they like ForSecure as much as I do,

we'll be in touch.

- I look forward to hearing from you then.

Same here.

- Thank you both for your time. - Sure.

Ms. Turner...

it was a real pleasure meeting you.

Yes, feeling's mutual.

- Take care. - You too.

You nailed it!

- You think so? I feel like I could have given more detail--

- You kidding? They loved you.

Look, I just wanted to say,

I know how hard it must be for you to be here

with everything that's been going on.

But I'm very glad you were.

Thanks.

Ms. Turner?

There are 2 people here to see you.

Who are they?

The FBI.

You know this man?

That's Josh.

- His real name is Jarod. Jarod Leary.

- I'm sorry? I don't understand.

- Leary's name is on a list that we monitor.

His murder raised a flag.

The FBI took over the investigation.

- A list? What kind of list?

- A list of known computer hackers.

What?

- How long have you two been involved...

romantically?

Um...

A little under a year.

I'm sorry, can you please explain to me

what's going on here?

- Six years ago, we convicted Leary

of computer fraud and grand larceny.

He approached females in high-ranking positions

at a couple of banks.

Seduced them to get the access he needed

to hack their computer system.

He stole a lot of money.

Two years ago, he was out on parole and disappeared.

Then, Josh Lawson popped up.

- So what are you saying?

- We think he was at it again.
