Hostages

Previously on Hostages...

When are you speaking with the Vice President?

I'm on my way now.

We're going to discuss potential running mates for his presidential campaign.

When I'm finished, you will be at the top of his list.

So you've made up your mind to run when Kincaid's second term is up?

The only question is, are you interested in running?

I have a business proposition for you.

I need a spy inside Duncan's operation.

What about the girl? She accept your offer?

She's in.

The President is gonna be in New York today.

Another team is being assembled.

Sir, I've got a hit on Duncan Carlisle in New York.

15 minutes ago.

Son of a bitch.

He's trying to sabotage this whole thing.

Targets are down.

Copy that.

I can't believe you did it.

You came through for me, Ellen.

Without you,

I don't know what would have happened today.

Don't move!

There's easier ways to get in touch with me, Logan.

Phone call, text, send me an e-mail.

We know what you did in New York.

People are very upset.

I'm upset too, now what?

Not my call.

Agent Carlisle.

We've never officially met.

Thomas Blair.

I'm aware of what you and your team did in New York.

And I'm aware of what you and your team tried to do.

Should've stayed out of it.

If you had succeeded, that would've made me expendable,

and we both know where that leads.

You're smart.

I'm also your best chance at getting this thing done.

We could still work together.

You already failed once.

Why should I believe you'll succeed this time?

Well, for starters, I just took out

your crackerjack sniper team.

And you're confident Dr. Sanders will come through for us?

I'm positive.

And you're confident you'll hold up your end of the bargain?

Dr. Sanders will need a

certain amount of help in the operating room.

We need to talk about that.

What the hell does that mean?

A problem has come up.

We need your help solving it.

Eh... About last night...

Right.

I mean, everything's been so confusing and...

heightened.

I know what I'm supposed to feel.

I'm supposed to hate you.

But, uh...

I don't.

I'm glad to hear that.

Ellen, we can't. We need to focus right now

on what really matters,

saving our families.

Yeah.

We're doing the right thing.

I gotta head out. I just got a call from a detective.

About?

The murder of that limo driver.

One of the detectives working on the case

wants to talk to me about Jake's testimony.

What number did he call you on?

My work number. Called my secretary and she told me to call here.

Check it yourself.

Press redial.

Do you really want the DC police knocking on the door,

asking where the hell I am?

Archer will give you a ride.

Burton, hey.

I need you to check something out.

Right away!

I'd like to talk to Detective Hall.

- Is he expecting you? - No.

What's it about?

I'd rather talk to him directly.

He's in court right now, he should be back pretty soon.

- Okay, I'll wait. - Follow me.

I thought we had a deal!

We did, we still do.

I gave you $10,000 as a gesture of good faith and you screwed us.

I told you I needed to know where Duncan was,

if he did anything out of the ordinary.

The man went to New York and took out a team of assassins!

Not only did you fail to warn us, you went completely off line.

Listen! Duncan ordered me to shut off my phone.

Then he had me and another guy parked on a stake-out all day.

If I tried to call you, my cover would've been exposed.

You're saying you had no idea what he was up to?

No. Not a clue, I swear.

I'm gonna give you one more chance.

To save your ass and live happily ever after with your son in Canada.

What do I have to do?

When this operation is over,

we're going to eliminate a few loose ends.

- A few? - Three.

Duncan, Archer and Kramer.

Assuming you're on board, of course.

Otherwise, the number would be four.

I'm on board.

Hey. Your lawyer's here.

Hello, Brian.

What are you doing?

I'm here to help.

This is a police station. When that detective comes in here,

I'm gonna tell him everything! You can't stop me!

You're right, but hopefully I can convince you you're making a mistake.

I doubt it.

Patty Hearst, she was taken hostage,

locked in a closet,

and after months of abuse, her captors robbed a bank.

Patty Hearst was caught, on tape, helping them.

She was tried for bank robbery, and in spite of the fact that

she was kidnapped and held against her will, she was convicted.

- Well, this is different. - You're right, it's even worse.

You're crazy!

Your wife injected the President with blood thinners,

lied to the Secret Service.

- Helped bury her friend... - The police are going to believe us!

Not you.

- You think so? - I know so.

Tough to prove you're a victim, when you're kissing the captor.

Congratulations, you've successfully doctored

a photograph of my wife kissing Duncan.

No one's gonna think that's real.

There's video, as well.

It's real, Brian.

How's it going?

I'm Detective Hall.

Hi.

So, what can I do for you?

Well, after, um, consulting with my attorney,

I realize that the information I was about to disclose is inaccurate.

Excuse me?

Sorry for the inconvenience. I made a mistake.

I have nothing to say.

Where have you been? I've just been trying to call you.

You kissed him?

- What? - I saw the photo, Ellen!

Photo? What are you talking about?

I went to the DC Police Department, I was gonna tell them what's going on.

- What! You were gonna talk to the police? - We need help, Ellen, okay?

There's no other way out of this, so yeah, I went to the police,

and Burton Delaney was there and he showed me a photograph of you and Duncan.

Kissing.

Is it real?

Yeah.

Yes, we kissed. Once.

God.

What the hell is wrong with you?

I just, I was trying to convince him that I...

I was willing to cooperate.

Oh, so, you kissed him?

Is that what you're saying?

I'm saying it just happened, okay. I don't know why. It just did.

I'm sorry, that's the honest truth.

Look, I understand things just happening, I do,

but not with that son of a bitch!

It's not what you think.

What the hell does that mean?

He's doing this to save his wife.

Where's Sandrine?

She went to see the lawyer about her son.

So, what's up?

- Where you been? - Talking to our partners.

They know we took out their hit team.

They think, or they know?

- Know. - How?

Let's just say these guys have lots of resources.

Good news is they don't hold a grudge.

The mission is still a go, but there's one slight hiccup.

A Secret Service agent named Jack Cahill,

has just been assigned to the President's personal detail,

and he's senior to our inside man.

Which means, Logan won't have operational control on the day.

Exactly. Unless, we find a way to remove Cahill.

Not that easy to take out a Secret Service agent.

I didn't say we were gonna kill him. I said, we need to remove him.

I have a plan.

Who cares why he's doing all this?

The fact is he's doing it!

And he's harming innocent people in the process.

To hell with his damn wife. What makes her so special?

- She's dying, he loves her. - That doesn't justify killing someone.

Well, the only person who was supposed to die was Kincaid, that's it.

Ellen, listen to yourself, "The only person who was meant to die?"

Like that's okay?

Kincaid is a bad person...

Says Duncan.
