FBI - Sixth Season

- So Tina moved out. I'm sorry to hear that, Gary.

- Yeah, she left on Sunday. - She say why?

- Yeah, she sat up all night watching me sleep

and realized I would never change.

- She got that from you drooling on your pillow.

Apparently.

How'd she want you to change?

- She wanted me to leave the DA's office,

go into private practice.

That's a big ask.

- Yeah, she thought I'd be less inclined to point out

everything that everyone does wrong,

which apparently creates an atmosphere of negativity

that sucks the joy out of life.

So what are you gonna do?

- I don't know. Find a woman who enjoys life

with the joy being sucked out--

No, please, don't hurt me.

Look, I've got kids.

You want my wallet, my watch?

Just take whatever you want.

Just, please, don't hurt me.

- Whoever among you sees evil,

let him change it with his hand.

Somebody help!

Help, please!

Help! Somebody, anybody, please help!

Are you serious?

You were involved in the case that Cate--

you saw her get shot to death?

- I wanted to tell you. I didn't--I didn't know.

You didn't know what?

- I knew that you were upset, and I--

I just thought that I should let it sit for a few days.

A few days.

And then what?

- And then we could talk about it.

Hey, look,

Gemma, we can talk about Cate for as long as you need.

I understand that this is difficult for you,

but you still haven't answered my original question.

What question was that, Omar?

- Do you use illegal drugs, Gemma?

Am I your girlfriend, or am I a suspect?

I'm in the FBI.

I can't have a girlfriend that does coke.

- I think you should get the hell out of here right now.

Go. Just go.

Okay.

Hey. - Hey.

Sorry. What do we know?

- Victim's name is Charles Pollan, federal judge.

Took one to the back at close range.

One of my guys ID'd a .380 casing.

ERT can pick it up.

Other than that, not a whole hell of a lot.

Okay. Surveillance cameras?

- Yeah, and we got a witness,

a friend who was walking with the judge.

Says he saw the shooter.

Hi.

Special Agent Bell. This is Special Agent Zidan.

We understand you saw the shooter.

- He was a--a Middle Eastern guy, not tall.

Maybe 5'10", average build.

Okay, what was he wearing?

- A blue hoodie with a-- a blue stain on the sleeve.

I couldn't see his face because of the COVID mask.

- Did you happen to see where the shooter came from,

what he was doing before he pulled the trigger?

- Look, I'm an ADA, okay, so I noticed him immediately.

He seemed off.

- Did he say anything to either of you

before he pulled the trigger?

No, no, but after when Charles was--

was laying there dead, he--

he leaned in and whispered something to me.

He had an accent that sounded like the type

that a terrorist would have.

- Which is what exactly, Somalian, Serbian, Oklahoman?

Arabic. It was Arabic.

- Okay, you could have just said that.

What did he whisper to you?

- "Whoever among you who sees evil, let him"--

I'm sorry. I can't remember the rest.

I was scared. He had a gun to my head.

- Is the rest of the sentence, "Change it with his hand?"

- Yeah, yeah, that was it. - Okay.

- You've heard that before. From where?

- It's the first line of a well-known hadith.

It's words attributed to the prophet.

Muslims consider them moral guidelines.

So he was Muslim.

Yeah, it looks that way.

- Is there any chance that Charles knew the shooter,

maybe from a case that he presided over?

- I don't know, but Charles has been getting a lot of heat

these past few weeks.

He presided over some pretty polarizing cases.

He said he'd been getting a lot of hate mail.

- All right, where are we on the footage

of the crime scene?

- It's a lot, but the angles don't really help us.

The shooter's face is mostly covered by a mask and hood.

I have been scrubbing traffic cams

in the immediate vicinity.

Found this half a block away.

- Okay, okay, yeah, this is our shooter.

- He must have ducked into a subway,

because I haven't been able to find any other footage.

- Well, can you punch in, get facial rec?

Mm. Let me try.

No, there's not enough for facial rec to work with.

Give me some time.

Might be able to clean up the original screen grab.

- All right, do the best you can

and blast it out to the team.

- All right, so we know his general physical appearance

from the eyewitness--

medium height, medium build, 5'10".

It's not much, but it's a start.

What about the threats Judge Pollan has been receiving?

- Marshals office sent over these five letters.

All of them seem to have the same handwriting.

Check this out. - Uh-huh.

- Mm, "You will pay for the injustice

you have brought onto our Muslim brothers and sisters."

Short and to the point.

- Pollan apparently notified the Marshals office.

They were about to open up an investigation.

- Mm-hmm. Well, let's see if we can pull

some prints off the envelopes.

FBI.

We're looking for Amir Barakzai.

Follow me.

Amir, there are some people here to see you.

- Good morning. How can I help you?

- I'm Agent Zidan. This is my partner, Agent Bell.

We are here to ask you a few questions.

About what?

- About some threatening letters

that you wrote to Judge Pollan.

Your fingerprints were on the stamps, so no need to deny it.

- Wouldn't think of it. I stand by those letters.

I have the right to express my disdain or dissent

for racism and fascism. - That's true.

The thing is, Judge Pollan is dead.

He was shot.

- You think that I shot the judge?

- Well, you were upset enough that you sent him five letters.

- The son of a bitch just sentenced my friend

to ten years for hate speech.

He had no right to do that.

But I didn't kill him. That's preposterous.

- It's not that preposterous,

because the guy that shot Judge Pollan

recited the first two lines of that hadith.

- Which is a call for Muslims to be

moral and courageous, to right wrongs, not murder innocents.

- Yeah, I know, my grandfather used to read it to me.

- Where were you at 8:00 a.m. this morning?

I got here at 7:45.

There are plenty of cameras to prove it.

We'll take a look.

- In the meantime, do you recognize this man?

I can't really see his face.

Jamila...

Jamila pays more attention to people

coming and going around here.

Do you know this person?

- It's hard to tell. I'm not sure.

- Look, the truth is, we were all angry.

Ali got a bad deal.

Sure, he went too far, but ten years?

Who's that guy?

- That--that's our janitor, Hassan.

- Okay, he's been watching us since we got here.

Thank you.

He's got a gun.

FBI.

We have some questions to ask you.

Hey.

Hands on the dresser.

- You're making a mistake. - Hands on the dresser!

- Do what he says. - All right.

My--my name is Hassan Khalil.

Take it easy.

Hey, hey, hey, take it easy.

I'm one of you.

I'm FBI.

Maggie.

- Ladies have to wear heels in Counterterrorism?

- You know, sometimes I feel like doing

the power woman thing.

It's been too long. - It has.

- Good to see you. - You too.

So you're working with Hassan Khalil.

- Yeah, he's been undercover at the Islamic Center

for three months as a maintenance man.

Okay.
