‫Two weeks ago, three labs
‫at three different science and ‫.tech firms were broken into
‫, The material stolen ‫, when combined
‫gave the thieves ‫everything they needed
‫to build the world's first ‫.two transparent bombs

‫All three were students ‫.at Western Tech
‫, After graduation
‫each went to work for one ‫of the three R & D firms

‫So these three are ‫? Working together

‫They all graduated ‫, different years

‫How do three people

‫manage to build a high

‫all three received e-mails ‫giving them the green light

‫, because after Caroline, Kyle ‫, and Nick completed their task
‫.all three were murdered

‫: You know
‫that was a pretty ‫.advanced trick you pulled

‫let alone show up the professor

‫I wasn't trying to ‫show you up, but
‫just thinking outside of ‫.the box is kind of my thing
‫Mm-hmm. Why haven't ‫? I seen you before
‫I actually just transferred ‫.from State, so... Uh-huh

‫Well, um... no, ‫I really .I have to go
‫lt would be better ‫.if you stayed
‫? Mac, was that an explosion
‫Uh, yeah. Lambeau tried ‫.to make a run for it
‫.I said stall him, not stun him
‫.Well, I did both ‫.He'll be fine
‫? But is he our guy ‫.He was acting shady
‫Tried to hit me ‫.with a microscope
‫RILEY: Well, there's ‫.a reason for that
‫He is guilty, just not of ‫.recruiting sleeper agents
‫He's been embezzling ‫department funds
‫to funnel to his ‫.radical causes

‫to show the progression ‫.of sun damage on crops
‫And since this is the ‫, only road out here
‫whoever was meeting Simon ‫.must've driven down it
‫Exactly. There may ‫be a photo on here
‫that can help us ‫.ID our recruiter
‫Guys, this car drove up ‫, right before Simon's meeting
‫parked for five ‫.minutes and then left
‫.Gotta be his contact
‫Does everyone else see a red ‫? Squiggly shape or is it just me
‫No, it's not just you, but ‫we might be able to use
‫that red squiggly shape to ‫.help us ID Simon's contact
‫Yeah, look at the ‫.heat signature
‫There's no engine. It's ‫.running off a battery
‫lt's an electric ‫.vehicle.Uh-huh
‫Matty, can, uh, you ‫run the chassis shape
‫and see if you can get ‫? A make and a model
‫lf we do get a hit we ‫can cross-reference it
‫with staff and ‫.faculty vehicles
‫I can, but it might ‫.take some time
‫Right now, it's ‫.our only option
‫.MATTY: All right ‫.Stand by for a name
‫BILLY: The guy I spoke with ‫said Victor's headed down here
‫to sell some stuff ‫.for some quick cash
‫, But if he doesn't turn up
‫Mama's gonna be ‫.pissed you lost him
‫? So
‫She really doesn't like when ‫.people mess with her money
‫Well, you tell Mama I ‫really don't like it
‫when people mess ‫.with my family
‫And I consider offering ‫Riley a job behind my back
‫.messing with my family ‫.She's with us now
‫, Okay, for the record ‫.that wasn't my intent
‫I just... I don't want ‫to think about a future
‫.that doesn't involve Riley
‫.Well, join the club
‫.Riley's amazing
‫lf she wants to have ‫, a future with you
‫.consider yourself very lucky
‫.I agree with you, Jack
‫But you do realize she's ‫? Not a little girl, right
‫And whatever Riley decides
‫, for her future ‫.that's her decision
‫.Mm-hmm
‫.Okay, there's Victor
‫Okay. Can we please be on ‫? The same page this time
‫, Oh, yeah, you chase him down ‫.I'll cut him off. That's right
‫♪
‫.Hey, Victor
‫Don't, don't do anything ‫stupid and make this situation
‫.worse than it already is now
‫Be smart. If you ‫turn yourself in
‫.we'll clear all this up
‫.Y-You gotta let me go, man. ‫Please .Look, I had to do it
‫That's what guys in ‫your position say
‫to guys in my ‫.position all the time
‫.Yeah. I'm sure they do
‫But, look, if you take me in
‫I don't know what'll ‫.happen to her
‫? Happen to who
‫.My mom
‫? What's the matter with her
‫.24-hour care isn't cheap
‫She's so behind ‫, in payments as is
‫.I just... I needed that money
‫I need the money ‫.to get her square
‫Look, I'm trying to ‫.sell everything I can
‫.That's why I came here
‫And I got friends, ‫they owe me money and
‫lf I can just get that money
‫, and pay off her bills
‫.I will turn myself in
‫.I swear
‫24
‫.Yes, sir
‫.Go on. Get out of here
‫.Hey, hey
‫.Take care of your mom
‫.Go on. Thank you
‫.Jack
‫? Yeah. What are you doing ‫? Did he come this way
‫.No, no, no. I came around ‫the corner .I seen this
‫So he... I don't know ‫.He must've doubled back
‫.No, he didn't
‫.He didn't
‫? You sure you didn't see him
‫? You sure youdidn't see him
‫.Yeah, no, I'm-I'm positive
‫.All right, come on
‫lf we hurry, he might ‫.still be in this area. Yeah
‫.Yeah, okay
‫, MATTY: Julian Sloane
‫, I'm Matilda Webber
‫and I work for an agency ‫.you never heard of
‫You have a lot of explaining ‫.to do, Ms. Webber
‫Your people just kidnapped ‫.me off the street
‫Oh, you want to play ‫.private citizen? Fine
‫But you're not really a ‫, citizen of this country
‫? Are you, Mischa Burov
‫.Born in Moscow, 1963
‫.Joined the KGB in 1981
‫ln 1985, you were sent
‫.to the States to recruit spies
‫And in 1986, you applied
‫to the Western Tech ‫Admissions Department
‫.under the name Julian Sloane
‫You were hired
‫and since worked your way up
‫.to head of admissions
‫, Then, in '91 ‫.the USSR crumbled
‫? So, what did you do
‫You turned your ‫recruitment ring
‫into a private ‫.moneymaking operation
‫Working in the admissions ‫department gave you
‫access to students' ‫, profiles and records
‫allowing you the opportunity to ‫handpick who you wanted to admit
‫.and recruit
‫.A nice story
‫.But it's just a story
‫Except it isn't. I've ‫got ten years of e-mails
‫sent from your account ‫to your student recruits
‫.ordering dozens of bombings
‫LEANNA: Bombings that ‫directly correlate
‫to deposits made into your ‫.offshore bank account. Oh, yeah
‫.We found that, too
‫Your last three ‫deposits all came
‫from the same place, which ‫tells me that you were hired
‫.to set off three bombs
‫.Two already detonated
‫? So where's the third, Mischa
‫We know you didn't make ‫.the handoff to Simon
‫And there's no bomb in your ‫.car, your office, or your home
‫Which means you ‫.planted it yourself
‫The only way to stay out of ‫jail for the rest of your life
‫is to tell us where that third ‫.bomb is before it goes off
‫? What was Simon's target
‫.Turn on the news at 9:00
‫All your questions ‫.will be answered
‫MATTY: It's just after 8:00 ‫a.m., which gives us less
‫than an hour before that ‫.third bomb goes off
‫.That's just not a lot of time
‫GPS in Sloane's car ‫.has been turned off
‫There's no way to ‫.tell where he's been
‫The, uh, time stamp on the ‫, weather balloon photos
‫it said that Sloane drove away ‫,.from the cornfield at 2:00 a.m
‫.and we grabbed him at 7:00 a.m
‫So he drove two and half ‫hours max to the target
‫.and two and a half hours back
‫The list of potential ‫.targets is massive
‫Okay, let's review ‫.what we already know
‫The students involved ‫in these attacks
‫used their employee access
‫to sneak the bombs ‫.into the buildings
‫? What did Simon have access to
‫Well, he's a Chinese and ‫.business double major
‫Did a semester abroad
‫interning at the ‫.Shanghai National Bank
‫Shanghai doesn't ‫.fit our timetable
‫No. But the Shanghai ‫National Bank does have
‫a corporate services branch
‫located on the 20th ‫floor of a building
‫.half an hour from Western Tech
‫Well, that's got ‫.to be the target
‫, RILEY: Without Simon's access ‫Sloane couldn't have snuck
‫.his bomb into the bank ‫? So where'd he hide it
‫MATTY: Probably somewhere in the ‫.building he could easily access
‫? Like the lobby
‫.Like the lobby. Go. Now
‫.RILEY: Damn it
‫.I can't see it anywhere
‫lsn't that the whole point ‫? Of a transparent bomb
‫lt can't be seen ‫? To the naked eye
‫BOZER: Yeah, but ‫.it's not invisible
‫Got to be some way to ‫.detect it, right There is
‫lt's called an induced ‫.secondary emission generator
‫Do all those big words mean
‫? "" Transparent bomb finder
‫.Pretty much
‫, When I pass this over the bomb
‫, it will shoot ions at it
‫.causing it to glow orange
‫The fire department's ‫.on its way
‫? How far out are you guys
‫.Yep. We are nearly there
‫Mac, you have 20 minutes
‫to find that bomb ‫.before it goes off
‫.So, no pressure
‫.Thanks
‫♪
‫BOZER: There's 28 ‫.floors in here
‫We'll never get ‫.everybody out in time
‫Well, then I guess ‫it comes down to Mac
‫.and his bomb detector ‫.LEANNA: Come on
‫.Everybody. Out
‫.We got 12 minutes, ‫Mac .Not helping
‫, I hate to say this ‫but are we sure
‫? We picked the right building
‫, At least if we die
‫.I'm spared a massive hangover
‫Yeah, that's a ‫.bright side, I guess
‫.Wait a second, I got it
‫.lt's right here ‫? Can you disarm it
‫No way. There's too ‫.many redundancies
‫.lf I try, I could set it off
‫What about trying to contain
‫.the blast? No
‫There's just too ‫.much explosive
‫.Wait, this is a green building
‫.Okay
‫.Means there are solar panels
‫ls anyone else
‫? Following this
‫? Ls this lobby spinning
‫.We got to get to the roof. Now
‫.LEANNA: Come on
‫He's just not gonna tell ‫? Us what he's doing, is he
‫He could, but it'd be ‫.all weird and nerdy
‫Solar panels have ‫.hydrogen fuel cells
‫I'm gonna use 'em to ‫.get rid of the bomb
‫? Can you do it fast ‫.We got two minutes
‫♪
‫MacGYVER: Come ‫.on, get up there
‫.Higher
‫.Come on, come on
‫.Higher
‫That would've looked so ‫.much prettier at night
‫♪
‫!: Hey
‫? Not so boring now, huh
‫.Drink up. Thank you. Yeah
‫.All right
‫? There. Okay? Everybody happy
‫.All right
‫? Whoa. MacGYVER: What was that
‫.My equilibrium's off
‫.MacGYVER: Dude, it's soda, ‫not beer .You have no excuse
‫? Really, guys
‫Whose idea
‫was it to play beer pong
‫? With soda
‫I've had enough beer ‫.for one lifetime
‫.Thank you
‫You want to get ‫? In on this, boss
‫.First things first
‫We were able to ‫connect the dots
‫between the two attacks in ‫.Morocco and Shanghai National
‫Turns out the ‫Moroccan government
‫was doubling its efforts ‫to fight terrorism
‫and secured a loan ‫at the Chinese bank
‫to fund both a weapons ‫development facility
‫and a training center for ‫.their anti-terrorist troops
‫Oh, so a local radical group
‫was trying to hurt the ‫government's efforts
‫.to stop terrorism
‫Yeah. And they hired Sloane
‫to maintain control ‫.over the region
‫, But when they failed ‫.they all went on the run
‫Which is good news ‫.for us and Morocco
‫LEANNA: So what's gonna happen
‫to the students that ‫? Sloane recruited
‫Phoenix agents have already ‫.started to round them up
‫But they're victims ‫, in this, too
‫so they're all gonna ‫.need to be debriefed
‫.Hey
‫? What happened yesterday
‫.Billy said you lost the skip
‫.Yeah
‫Yeah, well, sometimes they're ‫.a step faster, I guess
‫First chance you ‫get to be a Colton
‫and a bail jumper gets the ‫? Best of Jack Dalton, huh
‫I'm okay with not ‫.being a Colton
‫? Really
‫.Mm-hmm
‫What can I say, I guess
‫skip chasing just ‫.ain't my thing
‫.Hmm
‫.Dig that T-shirt, by the way
‫.Yeah
‫, Geez
‫Bozer, what's up? You ‫look like the south end
‫.of a northbound mule
‫.Thanks, Jack
‫The good news is
‫I feel the south end of
‫.whatever you said, ‫too .Mm, mm, mm
‫, Hey, blondie
‫.I've got something for you
‫.Really
‫.Well, this one's not from me
‫ln light of everything ‫, you did for Western Tech
‫the administration ‫.wanted you to have this
‫You are no longer ‫.a college dropout
‫.Aw
‫You know what they say ‫? About diplomas, don't you
‫? No. You gonna tell me
‫Great for when you run ‫.out of toilet paper
‫? Are you jealous, Dalton
‫Girl, I don't need a ‫piece of paper to prove
‫? How smart I am, okay
‫Well, I don't need a ‫piece of paper to prove
‫.how smart you're not
‫.Was that an insult
‫.No. You're a genius
‫.Oh, thank you
‫, All righty
‫? Who's ready to take me on
‫.Drink up, Bozer
