Unforgettable

First stage.

- (applause) - Number one.

Every single time.

- Because you cheat. - How do I cheat?

You pick the same song every single time.

You just mad because I kicked your ass,

like, 50 times in a row.

Because it was the same song.

“Waa, waa, same song”"

I need some real competition.

Anybody dare to challenge the king?

I will.

You serious, lady?

You may want to watch how this is done a few times.

No, no, that's all right. One time is all I need.

Hold this.

Don't let him pick the same song.

Oh, that's okay, I like his song.

First stage.

You ready?

Oh, I don't need a screen.

No way. No way.

Want to go again?

Come on.

He's out.

So you heading out?

Yeah, Maya's got a summer school open house.

Lot of construction paper suns and moons, huh?

More like composting strategies

and micro-investment lemonade stands.

- (phone rings) - Oh, here she is now.

Hi, honey.

What?

Maya, what?

Slow down.

Jay, something's happened. Bring up the news.

Okay, okay.

I'm-I'm on my way, all right?

It's gonna be okay.

Okay. She heard two blasts

and then the sirens; it's close to our place.

What do you think? Methane? Gas leak?

Those two are on the same side of the street

- with the building in between. - (explosion, people screaming)

And that one was across the street.

This isn't a gas leak.

We got a bomber.

Oh, my God.

Lieutenant Morse, we need access to this location.

What you need to do is not die.

When my guys give the all clear, then it's yours.

With all due respect, your guys are walking

all over stuff that might be important.

More than likely, you'll be walking on our evidence.

You know, we actually train

the bomb squad in this city.

Watch your back.

You were saying.

That's fire department.

Look, detectives, I've got three detonated devices

and God knows how many waiting to go off.

I'm taking every precaution.

All clear!

That what we're waiting for.

My guys tell me it's some sort

of insurance office.

The bomb ignites a fire,

fire causes most of the damage.

At detonation temperatures,

almost everything becomes flammable.

Al?

I'm guessing that's not an advertisement

for lower rates.

We'll get a translator on that.

Look, obviously my guys

are gonna do a more thorough analysis,

but I think it's safe to say

we got a small device, probably a pipe bomb.

Triggered remotely using

a cell phone or a walkie set to a specific frequency.

Exactly. Which is why no one's using cell phones or walkies,

as per the NYPD Patrol Guide.

Yeah, all right, fine.

I'll leave you two experts to your business.

The NYPD Patrol Guide?

- Yeah. - Nice.

Right now we're in the lead here

because we're on the ground,

but now I got to loop in the Feds,

and to stay in the lead, it'd be nice

to have something to show them.

Okay, Jackson Heights.

Population about 108,000.

Mostly middle-class Latino and a significant

South Asian population.

Now, so far, we've got nothing obvious

linking the three target locations.

One's an insurance agency,

another's a community center.

Last one's a barbershop.

All businesses were closed, so aside

from a few people getting cut from debris,

no serious injuries or fatalities.

Well, most businesses in the neighborhood

were closed for the Muslim holiday.

We got lucky. What about the bombs?

Bomb squad forensic guys are still working through it,

- (phone rings) - but it's looking like small IEDs.

No sign of times detonators.

Sure, put the commissioner through.

All right, keep me informed. Hey, Commissioner...

Hey. We get anything on that phrase on the wall?

Ran it through a quick translation program,

and it says something like,

“Whoever strays,

we'll make them eat fire.”

The thing is, and this is the scary part,

you see that sword there?

That same symbol showed up

near all the locations a few days prior to the bombings.

Some kind of warning? - Could be.

I've been combing through surveillance footage,

looking for the guy who made the marks, but I got nothing yet.

I don't have anything useful. Shadow here,

blur there, still working on it.

Jay, stop.

That woman.

Right there.

All clear!

That's what we're waiting for.

That woman's on the bomb squad.

She was at the first location.

Is she in any other photos?

Uh...

There she is again.

Why the hell's a bomb squad officer

casing locations that haven't been hit yet?

- (beeps) - Got a match.

Name's Aisha Conway.

She's a veteran.

Served in the first Gulf War.

Went back in 2007

with the Army 717th

Explosive Ordnance Disposal Company

based out of Baghdad.

Two tours,

got an honorable discharge

when she received cranial injuries.

She was in a Humvee that got

directly hit by an IED.

Two soldiers riding with her were killed.

You got anything on the incident?

Look familiar?

Hi.

Hi. Carrie Walls, NYPD Major Crimes.

- Is Aisha here? - Uh, yeah, she is,

but she's busy at the moment.

Oh, uh, can I come in, Megan?

It is Megan, isn't it? Megan Doyle?

Uh, yeah, but you mind telling me what this is about?

You know, I-I really need to speak to Aisha.

Okay, well, she's in the back working.

I'll get her.

- Is it okay if... - No.

Just hold on.

Who is it, Megan?

Carrie Wells.

NYPD.

Can we talk?

- (door closes) - Sure.

What do you want to talk about?

The bombings.

I saw you at the insurance office.

Yeah.

Place was shredded.

PVC pipe, Double Extra, about yea big.

I'm guessing maybe

three or four tubes.

More bang for your buck.

Wow, that is impressive, putting it together so fast.

Not really.

I've been around.

And like I say, I'm just guessing at this point.

Are you?

Look, what are you doing here?

I'm sure Lieutenant Morse

has already filled you in on what we know.

Yeah, most of it.

The thing is he hasn't really explained to us

what you were doing at the bomb sites

days before the bombings.

I was...

doing exactly what you're doing now.

Trying to identify

our bomber.

I...

saw something

I thought I recognized,

and it scared me.

The black sword.
