1
00:00:03,670 --> 00:00:05,963
You are being watched.
2
00:00:06,131 --> 00:00:08,424
The government has a secret system.
3
00:00:08,591 --> 00:00:13,012
A machine that spies on you
every hour of every day.
4
00:00:13,179 --> 00:00:14,555
I know because I built it.
5
00:00:14,723 --> 00:00:19,018
I designed the machine to detect
acts of terror, but it sees everything.
6
00:00:19,561 --> 00:00:22,146
Violent crimes involving ordinary people.
7
00:00:22,313 --> 00:00:23,605
People like you.
8
00:00:23,773 --> 00:00:25,858
Crimes the government
considered irrelevant.
9
00:00:27,444 --> 00:00:29,570
They wouldn't act,
so I decided I would.
10
00:00:30,822 --> 00:00:32,614
But I needed a partner.
11
00:00:32,782 --> 00:00:34,825
Someone with the skills to intervene.
12
00:00:35,452 --> 00:00:39,455
Hunted by the authorities,
we work in secret.
13
00:00:39,622 --> 00:00:41,415
You will never find us.
14
00:00:41,583 --> 00:00:46,086
But victim or perpetrator,
if your number's up, we'll find you.
15
00:01:07,275 --> 00:01:10,110
Yeah. We've got a problem.
16
00:01:26,002 --> 00:01:27,920
What's good here?
17
00:01:28,922 --> 00:01:30,422
That won't work, Mr. Reese.
18
00:01:30,590 --> 00:01:33,634
- What won't?
- Your interrogation technique.
19
00:01:33,802 --> 00:01:37,346
"What's good here?"
It's an innocent question.
20
00:01:37,514 --> 00:01:39,473
No question is ever innocent
from you.
21
00:01:39,641 --> 00:01:42,226
You're trying to determine
whether I come here often.
22
00:01:42,393 --> 00:01:45,521
Armed with that knowledge,
you'll try to figure out where I live.
23
00:01:45,688 --> 00:01:47,231
You're paranoid, Finch.
24
00:01:47,398 --> 00:01:49,358
With good reason.
25
00:01:51,820 --> 00:01:54,363
Maybe I just don't know
what's good here...
26
00:01:54,531 --> 00:01:56,615
...so I'm asking a regular.
27
00:02:03,957 --> 00:02:05,582
Enjoy your meal, Mr. Reese.
28
00:02:15,051 --> 00:02:16,426
Samuel Gates.
29
00:02:17,470 --> 00:02:19,096
The next number on your list.
30
00:02:19,264 --> 00:02:20,931
Bus is here.
31
00:02:22,767 --> 00:02:24,059
So what do we have on him?
32
00:02:27,105 --> 00:02:30,149
Born in South Boston.
Law degree from NYU.
33
00:02:30,316 --> 00:02:33,360
He lives on
the Upper West Side with his son, Sam.
34
00:02:33,778 --> 00:02:36,905
- Where's the wife?
- She died last year.
35
00:02:37,073 --> 00:02:38,657
Any chance Gates was involved?
36
00:02:38,825 --> 00:02:40,993
Not unless he found a way
to give her cancer.
37
00:02:41,161 --> 00:02:46,123
Elizabeth Gates was diagnosed with
an inoperable brain tumor last April.
38
00:02:46,291 --> 00:02:49,626
- By November, she was gone.
- So the son is all he has left.
39
00:02:49,836 --> 00:02:51,879
- Wait.
- Oh, don't forget your lunch.
40
00:02:53,256 --> 00:02:57,134
- What do we know about the nanny?
- Christina Rojas.
41
00:02:57,302 --> 00:03:00,721
- Gates hired her when his wife fell ill.
- The kid sure likes her.
42
00:03:00,889 --> 00:03:03,849
Spends a lot of time with him.
By the hours she's billing...
43
00:03:04,017 --> 00:03:07,477
...I'd say Gates was putting in
long days at the office.
44
00:03:07,645 --> 00:03:09,396
He lost the woman he loved.
45
00:03:09,606 --> 00:03:12,107
Probably threw himself into his work
to cope.
46
00:03:12,275 --> 00:03:15,194
- Where's his office?
- Criminal Court, city of New York.
47
00:03:15,361 --> 00:03:18,780
Which may explain why the machine
has sent us his social.
48
00:03:20,241 --> 00:03:21,366
Absolutely not.
49
00:03:21,534 --> 00:03:24,077
This is direct evidence,
properly obtained.
50
00:03:24,245 --> 00:03:26,663
So odds are, he's the victim,
not the perpetrator.
51
00:03:26,831 --> 00:03:28,957
Judges get plenty of death threats.
52
00:03:29,125 --> 00:03:31,627
It doesn't pass
the balancing test. Probative value...
53
00:03:31,794 --> 00:03:34,004
I know what the balancing test is,
counselor.
54
00:03:34,172 --> 00:03:36,048
Gates gets more death threats than most.
55
00:03:36,216 --> 00:03:39,176
Word at the courthouse is
he's waging a one-man war on crime.
56
00:03:39,344 --> 00:03:41,720
Tough, by the book,
making lots of enemies.
57
00:03:42,138 --> 00:03:45,224
If video of the actual crime
is unfairly prejudicial...
58
00:03:45,391 --> 00:03:50,020
...I think we might have to give up
on the entire concept of trial by jury.
59
00:03:50,980 --> 00:03:52,981
The video's in.
60
00:03:53,983 --> 00:03:57,694
Everyone has enemies. The machine
identifies malice and intent to harm.
61
00:03:57,862 --> 00:04:01,365
We need to determine
which threat it saw, which one is real.
62
00:04:01,824 --> 00:04:04,451
Until we know, my best bet
is to stay close to Gates...
63
00:04:04,661 --> 00:04:07,037
...in case somebody makes a move.
64
00:04:19,342 --> 00:04:21,718
Looks like he's got
quite a collection of enemies.
65
00:04:27,016 --> 00:04:29,059
Mr. Reese, any sign of a threat?
66
00:04:30,687 --> 00:04:32,312
Does cholesterol count?
67
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,856
I'm nearly done analyzing
the threatening letters.
68
00:04:35,024 --> 00:04:41,154
There are nine that I still can't source,
but I've identified six possible suspects.
69
00:04:41,322 --> 00:04:43,657
Any of them white guys
with crew cuts?
70
00:04:43,825 --> 00:04:45,200
Not that I'm aware of.
71
00:04:58,214 --> 00:05:00,382
I'll call you back as soon
as I get into town.
72
00:05:01,259 --> 00:05:03,010
All right, thanks very much.
73
00:05:08,391 --> 00:05:10,100
Yeah, that's fine.
74
00:05:16,941 --> 00:05:18,317
I just got out now.
75
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:30,829
Finch, what's the son's name again?
76
00:05:30,997 --> 00:05:34,207
Samuel Gates Jr. Why?
77
00:05:34,375 --> 00:05:36,752
I think we've been following
the wrong Sam Gates.
78
00:05:45,511 --> 00:05:49,264
Hey, Christina. You're not gonna believe
what Mark C said to Ms. Kizer today.
79
00:06:27,804 --> 00:06:30,889
I can't be there in time
if I'm getting bad information.
80
00:06:31,057 --> 00:06:33,225
The machine did not send us
the wrong number.
81
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:35,602
If it says Judge Gates is in danger,
he is.
82
00:06:35,812 --> 00:06:38,605
- Well, tell that to his son.
- The kidnapping must connect.
83
00:06:38,815 --> 00:06:43,485
It could be the first step in a larger plot
that ends with the judge dead.
84
00:06:44,028 --> 00:06:47,155
We can still put a stop to it, all of it.
But we need a plan.
85
00:06:47,323 --> 00:06:50,242
I have a plan: Find Sam.
86
00:06:50,410 --> 00:06:53,537
The man just lost his wife.
I won't let him wind up alone.
87
00:07:00,670 --> 00:07:01,670
Judge Gates.
88
00:07:01,838 --> 00:07:03,130
- Dad?
- Hey, Sam.
89
00:07:03,297 --> 00:07:04,589
Dad...
90
00:07:05,883 --> 00:07:06,925
What's wrong?
91
00:07:07,093 --> 00:07:09,094
He's fine, Your Honor. For now.
92
00:07:09,262 --> 00:07:10,303
Who are you?
93
00:07:10,471 --> 00:07:12,889
- And where is my son?
- No cops. No feds.
94
00:07:13,099 --> 00:07:17,352
Tell anyone and he's dead. Keep quiet
and you'll hear from us tonight.
95
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:18,603
Wait.
96
00:07:18,771 --> 00:07:21,648
Look, we can handle this ourselves.
97
00:07:21,858 --> 00:07:24,192
Just tell me what you want.
98
00:07:33,661 --> 00:07:35,537
This is Sam. Leave a message.
99
00:07:37,832 --> 00:07:39,708
Uh, Christina, this is Judge Gates.
100
00:07:39,876 --> 00:07:42,043
Please call me back.
