TakeOver! Wall Street!

TakeOver! Wall Street! TakeOver! Wall Street!

Make sure you get the crowd in the background, Mark.

Another shot of you and the chanting masses.

I'm so over this protest.

Next time we'll do a piece on Brazilian Runway Models, I promise.

Gonna hold you to that.

All right. Let's roll this puppy.

TakeOver! Wall Street! TakeOver! Wall Street!

Roger that.

TakeOver! Wall Street!

Hey, Ringo! You're messing up sound.

How about you take it somewhere else?

TakeOver! Wall Street!

TakeOver! Wall Street!

Okay, live in three...

Wall Street! TakeOver! Wall Street!

TakeOver! Wall Street!

I'm here at Boylan Plaza on day 36 of the TakeOver! protest.

Hundreds have gathered here and in other cities

across the country

to take a stand against what they say

is greed and corruption.

Oh, my God.

If you just tuned in,

there's been some kind of explosion

on the southeast side of the Boylan Plaza.

We do not know what caused this or if there are injuries,

but I can see what appear to be people

on the ground, not moving.

This is unbelievable.

Any idea how many people were killed?

Initial reports say five dead,

- 28 injured. - There's feds everywhere.

Yeah, well, that's normal procedure

in the event of a bomb.

There's nothing normal about this.

Detective, do the police know who's behind this?

Do they think this was a terrorist attack?

No comment. You'll have to deal with press relations.

Excuse me.

- Oh, sorry. - NYPD.

NYPD's over there.

Thanks.

FBI has taken jurisdiction of the crime scene.

Thanks.

Come on, Castle.

FBI turned you guys away, too, huh?

Yeah, they wouldn't let us past the crime scene tape.

What's going on?

Gates is talking to the feds, trying to get a handle on that.

What do we know about the explosion,

who set it off?

Well, it probably wasn't a suicide bomber.

I got a friend who's a medic, said that there were

no explosive vests on any of the bodies.

Everything else is just rumor at this point.

Listen up, people.

We'll still piecing together what happened here.

But what I can tell you... FBI and Homeland Security

will be taking point on this investigation.

NYPD will act in a support capacity.

Our first assignment is to determine

if any of the victims were targeted because of their involvement in the protest.

Uniforms are bringing families to the precinct as we speak,

so... let's go hold some hands and do our jobs.

Mr. Levine, I understand that one of the victims,

Jesse Friedman, worked closely with you.

It was more than that.

He was a friend, a comrade in arms, you know?

Jesse was a recruiter.

When attendance dropped a few weeks back,

even I thought it was time to pack up,

but Jesse just threw my favorite quote back at me.

The one about sinning by silence.

"To sin by silence when we should protest

makes... cowards of men."

We know that this is difficult,

but what was your husband's involvement

with the TakeOver! movement?

Matt wasn't involved. Neither am I.

So why were you at Boylan Plaza?

It's our first time here.

We wanted to take in as much as we could.

You're tourists?

We'd just been to the top

of the empire state building.

We had an extra few minutes, so we decided

to see what the protest was all about.

Matt and I just bought a house.

We were going to start a family.

We had all these plans.

What am I gonna do now?

You okay?

Yeah, yeah.

It's just this case, you know?

It kind of gets to you.

How'd it go with the rest of the families?

Um, one victim was the first kid

in his family to go to college,

and the other was a mother of two, so...

About like you'd expect.

No one seems to have been targeted, though.

So their deaths were random.

You know, most of our victims, they...

They die for a reason.

You know, there's a logic behind it.

It's a twisted logic at times,

but... at least it makes some kind of sense.

Yeah, but in this case,

these people were just in the wrong place

at the wrong time.

And their future and all their plans,

everything is just gone in a flash.

It makes you think about all those things in your own life

that you don't want to put off anymore.

Yo.

Captain's gathering the troops.

Now that it appears

that this attack was not directed

at any specific individual,

we've got a new assignment from the FBI.

We all know where the bomb went off.

It was here, right next to this lamppost.

The FBI just recovered this photo

from a protester's cell phone.

It's of the same location,

taken 47 seconds...

before the explosion.

That could only mean one thing.

The bomb was placed here by someone

within our 47-second time period.

Our task is to interview

all witnesses who were present at Boylan Plaza.

We are looking for anyone who saw what went on

by this lamppost before the blast.

Sir, there are over 300 names on this list.

How do you recommend that we proceed?

We bring in more shifts.

Someone on that list

saw the bomb being planted within our 47-second window.

We find that person, we find the bomber.

Thank you for your time.

Well, that was unhelpful.

Yeah. I'm starting to sense a pattern.

You know, this next woman says

that she was in the middle of the whole thing.

We were right here.

It's like the bomb went off right next to us.

Who's we?

Me and my sister Nadia.

She's out there right now waiting.

Should I go get her?

Uh, no, actually, it's better if we just talk one-on-one.

Now were the two of you participating in the protests?

Do I look like I'm in the 99%?

No. We'd just left this bridal boutique near the Plaza.

Nadia's getting married in June.

And did you notice anyone standing near the light post?

I don't think so.

Okay, well, I'm gonna need you to tell us

everything that you remember from just before the bombing,

starting with where you were.

We were at the coffee truck,

just trying to figure out our next move.

I'm a little shopped out, Nadia.

I mean, you tried on 11 dresses.

They made me look like a stay puft marshmallow.

We have to keep looking.

Can we look from home online?

I'm not buying my wedding dress on the Internet.

It's just to give us ideas. We need to regroup.

You are this close to bridezilla territory.

Oh, maybe I'll wear jeans to my wedding.

Maybe we can hire that guy as the band.

That's mine! Give that back!

Could you imagine the look on mom's...

Damn it!

Watch where you're going. This is my...

The force of it knocked us on our asses.

Nadia almost got trampled.

Wait. Can you go back to the...

the middle eastern man carrying the box.

You said that he was sweaty and nervous?

And was he headed toward the lamppost?

Yeah.

Do you remember his face well enough to help us with a sketch?

West Side Wally,

back by popular demand.

Come on, Kojak. You know I prefer west side.

West side then.

Uh, did you ever see that man at the Plaza?

No. Guy's not familiar.

Then again, lots of people, lots of faces.

Plus, I was over here. That's my usual spot.

Not by the coffee truck. I don't care for the smell.

Well, that puts you 50 feet away from where the bomb went off.

Did you have a clear view of this lamppost?

Not really, man.

And you know I always try to help Johnny Law.
