You found that stolen Monet in Florence,...

saved your company a $25 million payout.

That identity-theft case, you saved $15 million.

So, what have you been up to for the last year?

Working with individual clients. Confidential.

Nice. Solving rich people's problems.

Actually, the other way around.

Well, glad to have you here. Welcome back to the insurance game.

Great, there's lots of files I'd like you to review from our international branches.

Bangkok,...

London,...

Madrid,...

Mexico City,...

Los Angeles.

Let's start you as a consultant, work high- profile recoveries on a commission basis,...

and get you an office, maybe.

Mr. Ford?

Mr. Ford?

Was it something I said?

Zoe, it's...

It's more complicated than you think.

But you called the police, right?

Yeah, but they didn't even really get it when I was explaining it to them.

It's very difficult to wrap your head around unless you're a banker.

So explain it better.

Daddy, it's the right thing to do.

Honey, can we please just change the subject?

Okay.

Can I get a cellphone?

Oh, yoi. I got no good choices here, do I?

I've got no good choices.

Screw it.

- Honey! - Dad?

- I don't know what's going on! - Dad!

- It's out of control,... ! - Dad, look out!

- The brakes! - Daddy!

Okay, guys. Hold on. I got you.

Get her out of here. Now.

Yeah, okay. I've got her. Give me your hands. Move slow.

Move slow.

Take it easy.

Okay.

- I got her. Get him. - Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Help me. What... -

Help! Help me!

Help!

- My dad? My dad? - Help me!

- Okay. Hold on. - Help.

Help!

Hurry!

Go! Go!

The rich and powerful, they take what they want.

We steal it back for you.

And sometimes, bad guys make the best good guys.

We provide...

leverage.

Excuse me, I just wanted to check on... -

Hi, I'm Glenn Leary. I'm Matt's boss at the bank.

I'm sorry. This is Lieutenant Bonanno of the State Police.

Mr. Ford. Hell of a thing you did.

Now, you call me if you think of anything, all right?

- Sure. - State Police?

Car crash downtown - That's Boston P.D., not State Police.

Well, you're right.

It's not.

Matt called him to set up a meeting. I have no idea why.

Maybe something at the bank?

How? There isn't even gonna be a bank after friday.

We work at First Boston Independent. We're going under.

At the end of the week, the government's gonna come in,...

write one last check for all our bad assets,and that's it - Close the doors.

And...

Matt took it pretty hard.

He's drinking.

You know what a mess people are when they drink.

He's in surgery. I'm gonna go down and check on him.

Thanks again.

Something's wrong with the car.

It went real fast,...

and then the brakes... -

Yeah?

Listen, there's a Detective Bonanno out there. I'm gonna go tell him about this, okay?

No, wait!

Something's wrong with the car.

Okay,...

okay.

All right.

You should get some sleep.

Yeah?

Yeah.

- Picking up for one. - Last name?

- Parker. - First name?

No. Just one name.

Great. I hope you enjoy it.

Parker?

All right. After the show, then. I'll see you.

- Eliot. - Nate.

- Parker. - Hardison.

- So, how have you... - - Good. Good. Great. You?

Fantastic. Six months of traveling. Did a couple of big jobs.

Yeah. Me, too. Great off time. Well, I bought an oxygen tank. Cool, nice.

Yeah, super. I've been really super, too.

Yeah, she didn't tell me that you guys would... -

Oh, you all made it.

- I didn't know you could sing. - You know.

Not as well as I act, but, yeah.

Thanks.

I don't want to wrinkle your... -

We're gonna meet up afterwards.

Yeah, you know, I'm sure the reviews will be...

- on the news website already. - Really? Wow.

"Never before has a production of 'The Sound Of Music'...

made me root for the nazis."

But...

- You quit drinking? - Yep.

- You quit drinking? - Sure did.

You quit drinking?

How do you know about this place, then?

I rent a condo upstairs.

You rent a condo above a bar?

That's right.

Well, that's very...

Catholic.

- The costumes were really great. - No. No, no, no. Stop it.

There is nothing you can say that's gonna make me feel better.

I know what could make you feel better.

We should steal something.

- No, no. - Yes!

-We could do it together. -I like this. Get right back up on the bike.

- Bike of crime. - Didn't you earlier tell me how...

great your new lives were?

- Yeah, well, I stole the hope diamond. - What?

And then I put it back. Yeah, 'cause I was bored. Didn't care.

I spent three days hacking the white house e-mail - No buzz.

- See? - But we are doing...

some pretty hinky stuff in Pakistan.

- Hinky. - Look,...

I'm miserable. They're miserable.

Okay, what have you been doing the last six months?

I was in Pakistan.

You see what you did? You took the world's best criminals... -

Hitter, hacker, grifter, thief. You took us, and you broke us.

No, no. I... - what I did, I taught you...

- how to help people. That's all. - Exactly.

- Yeah. - This is the problem, with being the good guy.

It gets under your skin.

Look, Nate. You have to have some poor, little lost soul...

somewhere who needs a little extra-legal aid.

Look, we all agreed that we'd just move on.

Yeah, but we're... -

- We're thieves. - Not me.

Look, it was great. It was fun. It was wonderful while it lasted,...

but I was drunk most of the time, to be honest with you. And I...

- a little crazy. - Yeah, but you were good.

- You were the best. - We were the best.

- Yeah. - Listen, really, I owe all of you.

And I'm very proud of what we did. I really am. But...

I got my life back, and I intend to keep it that way.

And I am not a thief.

It was great to see all of you. Good night.

You didn't even get a chance to tell him.

I know.

Tell him what?

Nothing.

Hey, does your mother sew?

Stitch that.

Bugger.

That's my shirt.

Yeah.

- I stayed the night to make sure you were okay. - You what?

But don't worry. I didn't...

look under your bed. I know that's where guys keep weird, kinky stuff.

There's nothing under my bed.

- This is all coffee. - Get out of there!

What are you guys doing?

Come on, get out of here.

Get all this stuff out of here. You're planning something. I know it. Come on. Get out...

- of my house. - Someone tried to kill you last night.

What do you want us to do, man? You want us to just blow town and let you figure it out?

Yes, actually. That's exactly what I want you to do.

We found the phone number of the hospital in your pocket,...

and we know what you did.

We know you saved that guy's life and that little girl.

And we're all really, really proud of you.

Look, nobody else is gonna help that guy and his little girl. Okay,...

that's what we do. We help people.

By the way, I compared Sophie's description of your attacker...

to the accident footage from the security camera.

Match found.

Do you realize, on average, people are caught on security cameras 13 times a day?

Atm cameras, traffic cameras.

It's crazy, man, but we can track him. We can.

- Well, I lost him in this. - Yeah, well, I found...

this empty briefcase belonging to a Matt Kerrigan at that intersection.

It's Boston Commonwealth Bank, right?

No, First Independent Boston. That's where Kerrigan works. Come on.

Who's this guy?

You don't know, do you?

That's Kerrigan's boss, that guy. Leary.
