00:00Stop, okay? I'm done talking about this. Just stop already.

00:04All night, you were stepping on my words. Interrupting me.

00:07No, I was keeping them engaged, Peter. The way you were droning on about your stupid IPO.

00:12I had it handled.

00:13And where have I heard that before?

00:14I'm talking.

00:15Dad?

00:17We didn't mean to wake you, bud.

00:19Why are you fighting?

00:21Oh, honey, we're not fighting.

00:23Your father is just demonstrating his quintessential Virgo tendencies.

00:27We're good here.

00:31Linda, can you get him back to bed?

00:33Because you are playing those maniacs from Staten Island tomorrow.

00:38Kids are bigger than me.

00:40No more yelling.

00:42You got it.

00:44You too, Mom.

00:55Believe it or not, Pete.

00:56I was only trying to help tonight.

00:59And I don't need your help.

01:00I want a $50 billion company.

01:02Well, technically, AI does.

01:08Why couldn't we get a normal oven that doesn't have a computer?

01:17You know what this is?

01:21No.

01:22Open it.

01:35What?

01:36Who's it from?

01:37It says we can get to you anywhere.

01:40So, they still haven't figured out what caused the explosion.

01:59I was heard five blocks away.

02:01Yeah, Gemma thought it was thunder.

02:02She was out with her friends.

02:03Oh, she wants me to set up a dinner.

02:06You, Joel, me.

02:08Knowing her, it'll probably be some place with a prefix menu.

02:11I don't see that happening.

02:13Joel and I went our separate ways.

02:15Really?

02:16Yeah.

02:17I thought everything was going good.

02:19I guess I'm just at this stage in my life where I think more about the future.

02:21You know, where do I see myself in five years, ten years?

02:24Well, he wasn't in it.

02:26Well, better sooner than later, I guess.

02:29I don't know.

02:30Maybe I don't need anybody else.

02:32You know?

02:32I'm good on my own.

02:35We got a roll.

02:36You want us there now?

02:37Now?

02:41Hey, what a surprise.

02:43The feds.

02:44After the healthcare CEO was murdered last year, the DOJ has classified attacks like this as terrorism.

02:49Peter Minskoff is the CEO.

02:51This landed in our jurisdiction.

02:52Sure, when you're rich enough, who needs NYPD?

02:55Get your own private police force, always on call.

02:59Can we see the unit?

03:00Not yet.

03:01It's a real mess up there.

03:02Half the wall is just gone.

03:04So Peter and his wife died.

03:06Same with the live-in nanny.

03:08His 11-year-old son, Taylor, survived?

03:10Yeah.

03:11The boy was in his bedroom, a floor below.

03:13It was catatonic when first responders got here.

03:16He saw them.

03:17He saw their injuries.

03:18What are the chances this was a gas leak?

03:21Isotopic signatures of the post-blast residues suggest some type of mid-sized explosive device.

03:26They think it detonated in the kitchen.

03:28So what, a targeted assassination?

03:31Yeah, but look where it happened.

03:33In the penthouse of the most exclusive high-rise in the city.

03:35I mean, this building's a fortress.

03:37How would they get a bomb up here?

03:40Impossible.

03:41No one could sneak up into one of our penthouse units.

03:45Our tenants tend to be the 1% of the 1%.

03:48They expect impeccable security, and we deliver.

03:51Never had a break-in before?

03:53Not once in 16 years.

03:56We have high-res cameras everywhere.

03:58Locked doors, armed guards 24-7.

04:01You can't even use the elevators without an authorized key card that's programmed to a specific floor.

04:05What about employees?

04:11Maintenance workers, doormen, housekeepers?

04:13They'd still need to go through the front desk.

04:16Every guest provides a facial scan for our virtual visitor log.

04:20A temporary key card is assigned, and we can track what floor you're on at any moment.

04:25You keep that information on file?

04:26Good morning.

04:31So, the CEO of Zika, the electric car company, was blown up last night in his penthouse.

04:36And his wife, Serena, and a live-in nanny, Linda Ramirez, were both victims as well.

04:42Their son, Taylor, survived.

04:43He was released from Bellevue and is with relatives.

04:46We are withholding their names for now.

04:48The media believes this was a gas explosion, and we are going to let them think that.

04:53Preferential treatment?

04:54They are high-profile and well-connected, and we're being pressured to close this case quickly and quietly.

05:01But we don't have a problem with that, right?

05:04No, ma'am.

05:05Great.

05:06All right, let's table all Tier 2 and Tier 3 cases.

05:09This is now our top priority.

05:11Identify this bomber and bring him to justice.

05:13You heard the boss, so let's talk theories.

05:16Peter Minskoff, a self-described disruptor, has many enemies in the oil and auto industries.

05:21Zika's base model was one of the top-selling cars last year.

05:24Hmm.

05:25A legacy company targeting an industry disruptor.

05:27What else?

05:28Well, Zika had its share of consumer issues, battery fires, auto-driving accidents, several class actions with outstanding settlements.

05:34Right.

05:35Plenty of motive, then.

05:36So let's talk about something.

05:37They'd be in shorter supply of opportunity.

05:40Who would be able to slip an explosive up into their well-guarded penthouse?

05:43Where are we at with the list of visitors?

05:44Danny and Scola pulled from building security.

05:46Still coming through it.

05:48Minskoff said housekeepers, personal trainers, private shoppers, massage therapists.

05:52It was like Grand Central up there.

05:54Different lifestyle.

05:55Any visitors not on the payroll?

05:57Only one in the past month.

06:00Dejan Petrovic, a repairman who works for Gladstone Appliance.

06:04Here he is arriving for a service call.

06:06Yeah, yeah, yeah.

06:06Okay, I'm looking at that bag.

06:09Yeah, he allegedly arrived to do some maintenance work on an induction stove for the Minskoffs.

06:14Well, the explosion originated in the kitchen, right?

06:16When was this?

06:17Yesterday, six hours before.

06:20Consider my interest peaked.

06:22Hey, got something.

06:23Yeah.

06:23Turns out Gladstone Appliance is one of several fronts for the Yaks.

06:27By the Yaks, I'm guessing you're referring to the criminal networks operating here from Yugoslavia, Albania, Croatia, and Serbia?

06:32The one and only.

06:34The Yaks aren't a cohesive gang, but one of the smaller groups behind Gladstone Appliance

06:39have been moving into labor racketeering, squeezing businesses across Queens, including...

06:43Let me guess, Zinka electric cars.

06:46Zinka just opened a new factory in Queens.

06:49State of the art, right in the Yaks' backyard, and Peter Minskoff is staunchly anti-union.

06:54Okay, so the gang was squeezing Zinka in a labor dispute,

06:57so they used a repairman to slip into his home and send the company a message.

07:01Well, that tracks.

07:03Where's Dejan Petrovic now?

07:20FBI!

07:21Nobody move!

07:22Can't believe we can see them!

07:23Everybody stays right where they are!

07:26DJ, kill it!

07:27All right, listen up!

07:29We're here for Dejan Petrovic!

07:32We know that you're in here!

07:34Okay, this is your chance to come willingly!

07:37No?

07:39All right, house lights up!

07:42He's running!

07:43Go!

07:44Hey, stop!

07:46Move!

07:47Move!

07:48Move!

07:49Move!

07:50Move!

07:51Move!

07:52Move!

07:53Move!

07:54Move!

07:55Move!

07:56Move!

07:57Move!

07:58Move!

07:59Move!

08:07Move!

08:08Move!

08:09Move!

08:10You good?

08:11Golden!

08:12Here's the story.

08:17Your gang was squeezing Zinka's new plant in a labor dispute.

08:21But CEO Peter Minskoff pushed back.

08:23He refused to capitulate.

08:24So you decided to send a message.

08:26Send a message.

08:29Yeah.

08:30Sure.

08:31Well, it's gotta be a land speed record for a confession.

08:36Don't you have to offer me something now?

08:38What?

08:39For cooperating.

08:40Yeah.

08:41How's life in prison sound?

08:43A little extreme.

08:45You seem awfully relaxed for someone that just murdered one of the country's richest men.

08:51What?

08:52What are you saying?

08:54Peter and Serena Minskoff.

08:55Both dead.

08:56Thanks to you.

08:57Their nanny?

08:58Dead.

08:59Their 11 year old son?

09:00Orphaned.

09:01No, no, no.

09:02I didn't kill nobody.

09:03I went to his penthouse to scare the guy.

09:06Just show him how close we could get.

09:08Guy's got more money than God, but he wants to bust our unions?

09:12Hurt our families?

09:13Tell us about the bomb.

09:15What bomb?

09:16All I did was leave a note.

09:17Dajon, we have you on video, talking your way past building security, telling the guard

09:22that you were there to calibrate the induction oven.

09:24I mean, yeah, sure, but I didn't do that.

09:28Okay, your crew is suspected in nine open homicides.

09:31We know your tactics.

09:33I got footage of you entering the penthouse hours before the blast, carrying a large bag.

09:39My tools.

09:40Those are just my tools.

09:42I repair ovens.

09:43Wait, I can't prove it.

09:48His stove, it's a...

09:50Eric's chef series.

09:52Got a smart camera built right in.

09:54A camera?

09:55In the oven?

09:56So the rich people can watch their food while it cooks.

09:59But the footage, it gets uploaded to Eric's cloud site.

10:05You can watch it, you'll see.

10:07I didn't do this.

10:13Well, I don't know why anyone would need or want a live feed from their oven, but right

10:18now I'm glad it exists.

10:20What's going on, pal?

10:21Queuing up his time code to when building security gave Dajon Petrovic access to the penthouse.

10:27All right, folks, let's take a look.

10:30Uh, yeah, here's our guy.

10:33What's he doing, looking for the explosive?

10:36That is just an envelope.

10:39Right.

10:40The threat.

10:41He said all he did was sneak in and leave the letter.

10:44No sign of a bomb or any ID.

10:46So what, this guy's telling the truth then?

10:48You know what?

10:49Scrub forward.

10:50Let's see what the camera catches right before the explosion.

10:53Okay, this is 1134 PM Eastern.

10:56Those legs are Serena Minskoff coming home.

10:59Yeah, and there's no audio, right?

11:01Now you want to hear from your food?

11:03Rewind that.

11:08And then go frame by frame.

11:12Stop it right there.

11:15What the hell is that?

11:16Jubal, it happened again.

11:18Another penthouse just exploded.

11:19Excuse me?

11:20It's the live video of the Solace Hotel.

11:23What is happening?

11:25See if you can find footage of the detonation.

11:27Aftermath is all over social media.

11:29Maybe somebody caught the moment before it happened.

11:31Yeah, okay.

11:32Found one.

11:33Here, go.

11:34With vegan cream cheese and hot honey.

11:36What the?

11:37Okay, rewind it.

11:39This area right here.

11:40Enlarge it frame by frame.

11:41Let me see if I can isolate the clearest frame.

11:48That's the same object as in the kitchen.

11:50Yeah, I'd rather not, but somebody's got to say it out loud.

11:53We are looking at the first ever drone strikes on U.S. soil.

11:58Gang, we're under attack.

12:01All right, folks, so drone strikes have happened in civilian centers all around the world.

12:13Chechnya, Ukraine, Africa.

12:14It was only a matter of time before it happened here.

12:16So what have we learned from this new one?

12:18Maggie and O.A. are on the scene of the second explosion.

12:20They just ID'd our second victim.

12:22Edwin Archer, CEO of Piranha, the online ticket sales hub based out of D.C.

12:26So two prominent CEOs were executed by drones in our city.

12:31Someone's declared war on big business, and I want to know who.

12:34Okay, we've been given the dots.

12:36Now we've got to connect them, right?

12:37So where do our dead CEOs overlap?

12:40Common enemies, scorn clients, foreign rivals.

12:44We've been looking, but there's no public link between the two.

12:47Well, both are Fortune 100 companies.

12:50Maybe we're dealing with violent activists targeting wealthy corporations.

12:54NSA, any luck with online chatter?

12:56Okay, this is alarming, but I analyzed the shape of the drones used in the tacks.

13:01Looks like they're Bushcraft 200s.

13:03Bushcraft 200s? Show me.

13:05High-tech, capable of tracking and engaging non-line-of-sight targets using facial wreck.

13:13These are weapons of war.

13:15You can't get these at your local hobby shop.

13:18How the hell did someone get their hands on them?

13:19It looks like a shipment of military drones earmarked for Ukraine went missing in Canada.

13:23Wait, attack drones stolen from Canada and smuggled into the US?

13:28All drones broadcast a unique signal like a digital license plate.

13:32Wait, so you can track them?

13:33Theoretically, but someone already disabled these.

13:37But before they did, they had to turn them on.

13:39Looks like they went live yesterday.

13:41Only pinged for two and a half minutes.

13:43Tell me it was long enough to pinpoint their last known location.

13:46It was a defunct factory in Inwood.

13:48Wait, did you hear that?

14:01It's going from over there.

14:03That beep!

14:12That beep...

14:13That beep...

14:14That beeperred!

14:17Did she make this stop?

14:19Oh, my God.

14:23He's been waterboarding.

14:25He's alive.

14:27Hey, hey, hey.

14:28You're going to be okay.

14:29Hey, hey.

14:30You're going to be okay.

14:30Hey.

14:31Hey.

14:49Hey, hey.

15:19Hey.

15:21Drop it.

15:22Now.

15:23Here's your love.

15:25I need a hole in my head like I need a hole in my head.

15:40Whoever he is, he's trained in Defendu.

15:42What's that?

15:43Close quarters fighting style used by British commandos.

15:46So who is he?

15:47His name is Thomas Banks, former British special forces.

15:52That's a little way from home?

15:53Yeah.

15:54Well, now he works for an asset management company.

15:56He was Edwin Archer's personal bodyguard.

15:59So he's here investigating the same thing we are, who killed his client.

16:02Yeah, except he was able to get to the man who smuggled the attack drones into our country

16:06before we did.

16:07Okay.

16:08Let's go figure out what he learned.

16:14Waterboarding was a nice touch.

16:16Now you were looking at a federal kidnapping charge with enhancements due to the use of

16:20violence that is life behind bars.

16:21So I would start talking.
