FBI

- Allie, please, I'm not saying you're a bad person.

- Oh, but I'm a racist? How can you say that?

Because you're white.

So you're a racist too?

Of course.

So is every otherwell-intentioned

"woke" millennial in Brooklyn.

- Okay, I know I'm new and all, Spencer, but I--

No, it's not an accusationor an insult.

It's just a fact.

- Okay, so, let's pretend for the moment

anyway that I agree with your premise.

Hey, Vicky. - Hey.

- That all white people are racist.

Now what? What's the next step?

What do we, the decent, kind, unintentional racists,

actually do about it?

- We should discuss this more in depth tonight.

Over dinner. - Are you asking me on a date?

Yeah, if that's okay.

I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable.

No, dinner sounds fun.

Still think your theory is ridiculous.

Okay.

Oh, my God.

What the hell's-- oh, my God!

Run!

- Well, we're glad you're here, Tiffany.

I'm glad to be here.

White Collar was fun and all,

but I didn't join the FBI to arrest accountants.

Right.

- By the way, what kind of name is "Jubal"?

- "Jubal," it is-- well, it's, I guess a tribute

to my grandfather, the Honorable Jubal N. Valentine.

Oh, it's like that.

Yeah, I guess.

Ah, so here, Stuart Scola.

This is your new partner, Tiffany Wallace.

- Oh. Nice to meet you.

I thought you were starting next week.

- I got settled in a little earlier than I thought.

- Great, well, looking forward to working with you.

Yeah, Tiffany spent two years in Atlanta

working white-collar, but she grew up here in Brooklyn.

- Bed Stuy. Thrilled to be back.

- Oh, Tiffany, this is-- - Hey, I'm Omar.

These guys call me "OA."

- Okay, listen up. I just got a call.

There's been a mass shooting in Greenpoint.

I want all hands on deck.

Just like that.

Maggie Bell.

Hey.

- You're back? - Yeah, I am.

We bump elbows or something? What are we doing?

- No, I think we can hug. - Right.

Come on!

- So how did the undercover gig go?

Fine.

- Did you close the case? - I made 16 arrests.

Sounds like a home run.

- Look, I'm just happy to be back here with you.

Playing "Maggie Bell" again.

I mean, it's not as glamorous pretending to be somebody 24/7.

But everything went well?

- Got the job done. - What does that mean?

- It means that I'm ready to move forward

and start a new chapter.

- Still need to be in control. Copy that.

- So, how'd you like "Hotlanta"?

It was okay.

A little too Southern for me, but I had fun.

And just so you know, nobody calls it "Hotlanta" anymore.

Oh.

Got it.

It's the first time I ever said it, too.

So why'd you leave NYPD?

- Man, I feel like I'm on a bad first date!

- Oh. Okay, I'm sorry.

Didn't mean to...

I thought "Hotlanta" would be the most awkward moment

of the morning.

Sorry, I'm just...

sometimes I'm just a little bit too blunt.

I left the NYPD because I needed a change.

I got tired of talking about the Yankees,

the blue wall and hanging out at dive bars

called O'Sullivan's and Murphy's.

For the record,

I'm half Irish.

Get a uniform to escort you.

Right over here.

- Maggie Bell. - Tiffany Wallace.

- Good to meet you. - So what do we know?

- We've got four dead, all in their 20s.

We've got two men, both white.

Two women. One white, one Asian.

Any witnesses?

A few, but they didn't see much.

The shooters were wearing masks.

We recover the casings?

- Yeah, we know the shooters were using Krinkovs.

- Have you found the shooters yet?

- Excuse me, sir, can you back up?

This is my company.

Those four people in body bags are my employees.

I have a right to know what's going on.

- You're absolutely right. Let's take a walk.

We'll find a quiet place we can talk.

- All right, come on in! Just talked to Maggie.

Here's what we know so far.

We got two shooters, both firing Krinkovs.

Four victims, all journalists at Echt Media.

- Known for its progressive political commentary

and disruptive social ideas.

- Right. They're liberal--most likely

extremely liberal, which means we need to start digging

into right-wing hate groups.

Pull security cam footage within a two-block radius.

Get to work, let's talk to each other, people!

Hey.

So Maggie and OA are on the scene.

Scola and Tiffany are canvassing for witnesses,

but so far no actionable leads.

But dock is hot, so...

- Great, thanks. - Yeah.

Oh, hey, uh...

Got a text from Kristen. She's moving to Dallas, huh?

Yeah.

Yeah, she wanted a change of scenery.

It's her decision.

Right.

Okay, well... as long as she's happy, I guess.

She is.

I wasn't aware of any specific threats,

but we do get hundreds of non-specific threats every day.

- Well, what do you mean by that?

Well, there's so much hate in the air.

No matter what you say, the other side is constantly

on the attack, and it's personal.

You know, it used to be all this political and social

vitriol was just rhetoric.

Now it's like we are actually on the verge of a civil war.

- Well, have you posted anything controversial

the past few days?

Anything that would agitate a certain political

or ethnic group? - It's our goal to publish

something controversial every day.

It's our business model.

I'm happy to answer any other questions you have,

but I should go.

I need to talk to the employees.

- Okay, sir, that's not how-- - Hey.

Just got a text from my informant.

He may have a lead.

- You guys out here when the shooting went down?

Excuse me.

I asked you a question. - Yeah, I ain't answering.

- Did you hear any gunshots, sir?

- Man, you deaf? I just said I ain't talking!

- You ain't talking, why? 'Cause you're a tough guy?

'Cause you're the police.

No, we're the FBI.

So let me ask you again.

Were you out here when the shooting went down?

Yes or no? - No.

Aw, look at you.

Trying to be all hard and make a statement.

- You don't know a damn thing about me, lady.

One, don't call me "lady."

Two, I know a lot about you.

Like that tattoo on your arm? "BMW"?

Means you roll with Brooklyn's Most Wanted,

which means you're connected to the Trey-Nine Crips,

which means you probably grew up in Brownsville.

I'm guessing the Tilden Street Housing Projects.

Another thing you should know, Jalen,

is that lying to me ain't like lying to some fat dude

in a blue uniform.

It's a felony.

You do time behind that crap.

So the second I walk away from here,

I'm a pull every piece of surveillance footage

I can find.

And if I see your sorry butt out here at 8:27 a.m.,

I'm a charge you with perjury.

- Wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait.

Look, I was here.

I--I heard the gunshots. - Then what?

- I saw two dudes wearing masks jump into a blue car.

- What kind of car? - I'm not sure.

A sedan? Kia, maybe?

- It was nice doing business with you, Jalen.

Nice work back there.

But you didn't need to jump in like that.

I had everything under control.

Oh, my bad.

I just reacted.

I knew who that dude was, what buttons to press, so I did it.
