The first 200 lines.
Come on.
Get inside now!
Suspect went inside.
SWAT, secure the perimeter.
I want every door covered.
Roger that.
Set.
SWAT, breach the door!
Execute!
Take it!
- Get them out of there now! - Fall back!
Fall back!
Get down!
- Ugh! - Shots fired!
Shots fired!
They've got rifle ports.
We don't have an angle.
Guys, this whole building might
be rigged with explosives.
- We need to find another way into that building.
- Law enforcement are in pursuit of three armed men
who gained entry to the Best Merch corporate offices,
gunning down senior vice president Robert Pearson
before escaping.
Where are my eyes, Ian?
Any second now.
OK, we're live.
OK.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Looks like a war zone out there.
Where are we?
ADIC Green.
Well, we've initiated a multi-agency response.
Our team pursued the suspect from the scene
to a secondary location, where we now have them surrounded.
Then why are we still outside?
Oh, the building is rigged with IEDs.
You got an open line?
Uh, yeah, sure.
You're speaking to Special Agent Zidan.
OA, listen up.
ADIC Green.
What are we waiting for?
Let's breach that building.
Scene is not secure, sir.
Taxpayers pay good money to train SWAT
for events just like this.
Get us in there.
Sir, we do not have eyes inside.
They have rifle ports and explosive traps.
I called for a Bearcat.
When it gets here, we will breach, not before.
I trust Special Agent Zidan
literally in any tactical situation.
How long till that Bearcat?
Still 15 minutes out.
Move, move, move!
Bearcat was the right call.
Agent Zidan knows what he's doing.
Watch out for tripwires.
Mark it.
Scola, any eyes on our suspects?
No, there's no sign over here.
- Maps and plans specifically targeting Pearson.
These are not lone gunmen.
This is a base of operations.
SWAT, any movement outside?
- Negative. - All quiet.
Where the hell did they go?
We had the place surrounded.
I don't know.
Hey, guys. Open this.
They must have got out here when we were
waiting for the Bearcat.
- Jubal, I think they got out through a hatch in the floor.
We're going to follow, see where it goes.
OK, this way.
Come on.
Jubal, they're gone.
Guys, you need to see this.
- The unit searched the area where the tunnel led out.
Suspects were long gone.
The NYPD is establishing a wider dragnet,
- but I'm not holding my breath. - All right.
What about the bones that we found at the scene?
No DNA match in CODIS,
but ERT did recover a titanium stem
from what looks to be a hip replacement.
They're using it to track down a name.
- They stride into the corporate headquarters
of a Fortune 100 company in broad daylight
and assassinate the senior VP.
Who the hell are these guys?
Your team managed to pull partial prints
from the hideout.
You're not going to like it.
Hunter Bach, Mike Crosby, Wilson Corya.
All late 30s.
OK, but do we know them?
In a word.
They're all suspected members of the Alameda Underground.
- AU, the old terror group? - That's right.
Back in 2012, they splintered off
from the Occupy protests in Portland.
- Yeah, and back then, the AU waged a violent campaign
targeting symbols of American capitalism,
bank bombings, kidnapping corporate executives.
- Oh, but we snuffed them out over a decade ago.
FBI went in and raided their compounds in Oregon.
We got their major players.
Well, apparently not.
Not all of them.
A few have been running dark ever since,
biding their time.
And now they're back in New York,
launching a new wave of terror.
- There's no telling what other horrific attacks
this group has planned.
So let me be very clear.
The AU will not evade us again.
Not on my watch.
Find them.
Yes, sir.
You wanted to see me?
Yeah, come on in.
Shut the door.
- Special Agent Zidan, you were given a direct order today,
and you ignored it.
- With all due respect, tactical decisions reside
with the on-scene commander.
I figured if we went in any earlier
that our team would have sustained even more injuries.
Or they would have succeeded.
We'll never know.
What we do know is that three domestic terrorists
evaded our capture today because of your decision.
- Look, I want to get these guys just as bad as you do.
I will do whatever it takes to bring them into our custody.
That won't be necessary.
I'm assigning you to 24-hour surveillance of this woman,
June Taxera.
She's the ex-wife of the AU founder.
You're benching me.
Reassigning you.
If any members of the AU pop their head above ground
to pay June Taxera a visit,
you will be waiting and watching.
- She was only married to the leader of AU for six months.
She's never been attached to any of their activities.
This is a non-viable lead.
This is a waste of our time.
- Anyone with even the slightest connection
to this group is now on our radar.
Surveilling her is part of this case.
- You failed to follow orders once, Special Agent Zidan.
Maybe you'll do better this time around.
You're dismissed.
Where are you going?
- He's sending me to Bay Ridge on some BS surveillance op.
You're kidding me.
I didn't sign up for this, Maggie,
to follow some boss's ego into a death trap.
- What are we even doing here? - I don't know.
Been asking myself the same question for months.
Come up with any answers?
No, just showing up and doing the work,
trying to quiet the rest of the noise.
Does that work in Bay Ridge?
Special Agent Zara Ushruf.
Special Agent Zidan.
Who'd you piss off?
ADIC Green.
What about you?
- Let's just say when someone gives you permission
to speak freely, don't.
Come on.
Let's go set up our kit.
Pretty nice place they got us here.
Spared no expense.
All right, Ian, what have we got?
- Yeah, the titanium stem found in the charred remains
was from a hip replacement.
Serial number ID'd our vic as Ana Montero.
OK, she another radical member
of the Alameda Underground?
More like a beloved kindergarten teacher
- from PS 36. - What?
Yeah, I called Ana's school.
They said she hadn't been to work in three days.
More alarming, her husband told the principal
that his wife was just down with a migraine.
- Oh, OK. - So who's her husband?
That's where it gets interesting.
Darcio Montero.
Used to live in Portland, worked in demolition,
was a suspected member of AU.
So why wasn't he picked up back in 2012
with the rest of his crew?
He wasn't named in the indictment.
