and hid most of it somewhere in his village. except for $50,000? right-- the money ferraro found on him when he picked him up in a sweep. right, which the wife got. now, ferraro tortured this guy for two days straight trying to figure out where he hid the rest of it. after two days, he died while under guard, but the guard was clay porter. okay, so ferraro thinks that maybe the iraqi told porter where the money was as, like, a last-ditch effort to save his freedom? yeah, maybe he did, and porter's just sitting on a pile of cash. okay, well, then that makes a lot more sense why he wants porter alive. right, he needed him to get the money. all right, get out of the way, get out of the way! don't... hold it right there, porter. one more step, i'm gonna put a bullet right through you. i want to see... my father.

look, clay, you're gonna have to talk to us. megan: why don't you start with the $1.5 million? i didn't know anything about it until ferraro called me in mexico... ...told me he had my family, told me he wanted his money. megan: you just played along to keep your family alive? after getting my sister back. you want my confession on dinging those serial killers, i'll give it to you after laurie is home safe. all right, well, no promises, i mean, you're gonna have to take whatever they offer you. all i care about is laurie. clay, whatever happens, i love you. i brought you your dad back in a bag. she's next. you've got 24 hours. this is the last message they sent. when we dug out the background audio,
1:40 am
we found something. (computer beeps) (low rumble) it sounds like a jet. yeah, our techs agree. now, we found flyovers on all the recordings, but that's all we found. okay... if they're near a flight path, we may be able to identify it using an integrated noise model. think of it like a geologist measuring a crater to determine what kind of object created it. the geologist analyzes diameter, depth, contours, to determine how large an object, at what speed, made that impact. in the same way, we can analyze a sonic crater created by a plane to determine its size, its speed, and its distance from an observer's location. amita: if we can match the flyover patterns with the available faa data, we can find your house. that sounds great. i'll leave you guys to it. thanks, charlie. sonic craters-- interesting choice.
1:41 am
a crater tells a creation story-- its own big bang. and to discover why we're here, to discover the key that unlocks the mystery of the universe-- well, the end is really just the beginning. sounds like you're ready to get back in the higgs boson saddle. (laughs) a less appealing analogy, but it's accurate nonetheless. okay... i'm the one who let porter go. two lives were at stake, and i rolled the dice. and the law be damned. i've always said the law's overrated. i'm glad you see it that way, 'cause i need something. let me guess. porter's asking for a plea deal in exchange for cooperation. no. i'm asking. for a law and order guy, you've got a bleeding heart. don't worry about it. it's just one time. double homicide, signed confession. it's not gonna be easy,
1:42 am
but the evidence is circumstantial. i could make a case for coerced confession, add mitigation for exemplary military service. it's worth a shot. i like it. remind me to hire you if i ever kill anyone. i'm a prosecutor. oh, yeah. listen, don... wait-- actually, let me just say, i mean, in terms of us, i'm there. i'm ready to step up. yeah? yeah. okay. so charlie got us a location. it's a house in an area of condemned properties in westchester. uh-huh. swat? yeah, already made the call. i want in, eppes. what, are you kidding? hey, i'm not looking at this emotionally. okay. no, i'm looking at this tactically. you need me. now, ferraro chose this location because it's isolated. he can establish a field of fire in every direction.
1:43 am
you come up any of these roads, and he'll cut you down within 1,000 yards. and my sister will die. so, what would your plan be? i call him, i set up a meet. you let me be the first face ferraro sees, and maybe laurie will have a chance. just one minute. that's all i'm asking. you used me as bait once. i just want you to do it again. he's right, don. it's the best play. tactically. no gun. didn't ask for one. we got a motorcycle approaching. he's alone. greet him.
1:44 am
he's clean. (from inside): bring him in. throw him in the chair. handcuff him. ferraro: i was starting to wonder if you were gonna show. i'm here. that's what you wanted. i want my money. let laurie go, and i'll take you to it. at first, i didn't get why you ratted me out. then it all came clear. that dirt bag i beat the crap out of-- he gave it up to you. you should have brought the money, clay.
1:45 am
let's go! let's roll! let's go! (tires squealing) as soon as my sister walks, we'll get down to business. you're not in a position to bargain. your dad made that mistake. (tires squealing) we got incoming. cops. let's go! let's go! liz-- might be in the back. liz: copy that. dumb move, clay. (gun cocks) you just got you and your sister killed. fbi! (gunfire) fbi! fbi! drop it! i don't think so, man. drop the gun! put it down! we were just about to take a walk. you're not going anywhere.
1:46 am
busted out of a marine brig. i'll find a way out. you're not walking out of here with a hostage-- you hear me? take the shot, eppes. nice try, clay. (ferraro groaning) clay, put the gun down. clay! clay! put it down! the man killed my father. put it down! put it down! i'm going to prison anyway. your only chance of walking out of here is to drop it. colby: don't do it, man. this guy's not worth it. (panting) i'll see you in leavenworth. (ferraro groaning) (grunts) that's so i can hear you coming.
1:47 am
♪ (crying quietly) he stopped running. yeah. we all have to sometime. oh, uh, i guess i should have bought another steak. i'm just here for another consult. charlie: we've been looking at the furnace conversion, dad, and, uh, we think we have another idea. waldie: a cleaner burning idea. using second generation biofuels made from genetically modified algae. you want me to put a log of pond scum on the fire? well, it's better for the planet, alan. i see. uh, guess we don't need a silo, then, huh? no. instead, we're gonna build one of these.
1:48 am
a windmill. wind turbine is the precise term. you're gonna build a windmill-- wind turbine-- in our backyard? waldie: generates 1,000 watts in an 11 meter-per-second wind. that's, uh, five kilowatt hours a day, easy. good-bye, grid. a bit of an eyesore, though, isn't it? for you, maybe. my recent calculations, based on prevailing winds, put the blades right outside of your bedroom window. um, anyone heard from larry? apparently, he's off probation. so he's back at the monastery? but tonight, he'll be staying at his office. he mentioned something about a "ritual restoration of peace and harmony." ♪ hmm.
