Previously on "XIII.
"
By order of the President,
Frank Giordino
is relieved of all duties
at the agency.
Are you willing to
walk away from all this?
Walking away
is just the beginning.
Welcome to Russia!
Get me the hell
out of here.
Every lead
we had on Max Serle
and the third watch
went up in smoke.
Not for lack
of looking.
Because Giordino
was fighting us.
Gerhardt?
Mr.
Gerhardt is
unavailable, Mr.
President.
The mobile you're using
is compromised.
Please do not call
with it again.
Giordino's got
a box of secrets.
Every blackmailable thing
he's ever collected.
Think you're
in there?
I would not
push it right now.
Is that
a blood test?
Yeah, there's
another one in there.
We made a deal
with Amos.
He wants the contents
of the box--
YOU made a deal!
Not me!
Think about Max Serle,
the third watch--
We're dead in the water.
Amos could help us!
I don't work
for Amos!
The Gerhardt check,
those blood tests--
We're gonna
run those down.
We're gonna
figure this out.
If he's got
dirt on Carrington,
he'll go
for that first.
If he does?
Then I'm gonna
burn them all down.
I hope
this pays off.
I'm not crazy about
letting Giordino
get away in Moscow.
The check in the vault
was from Gerhardt's account
to the Hansby's.
Too big a connection
for Giordino to ignore.
How much further
to their house?
About two and
a half miles west.
Hope Giordino doesn't get to
those people before we do.
If they know about Max
and the third watch
he's not going
to ask nicely.
Amos.
How many calls
since we touched down?
Four and counting.
He's gonna have NSA tapped
into every security cam.
Well, my European contact
was able to get us here
without being
spotted.
But now we're just gonna have
to keep our eyes open.
We have to do
more than that
to get down this street
and not get made.
Alright,
stay close.
Flares the lens -
nice trick.
One more to go.
Think we ducked it
in time?
We'll know
soon enough.
Well, when we
bought the house
it was surrounded
by crown land.
Which I guess you would
call government land.
And, Stacy gets out
as much as she can.
Oh, here she is--
Cream,
Mr.
Wyatt?
Please,
Mrs.
Hansby.
Thank you.
So when does your son
get home from school?
Roger has some
extracurricular activities.
His schedule
varies.
How does it
vary today?
I'm not sure,
actually--
I'm sorry,
Mr.
Wyatt,
I was under the impression
that this meeting
was about my company's
U.
S.
trade quotas.
Well--
We've had a change
of priorities.
So what exactly--
The U.
S.
Government
would like to know
everything you can tell us
about Ranier Gerhardt.
I'm afraid you must be
mistaken, Mr.
Wyatt.
We don't know
who that is.
Yet you've been cashing
checks for Roger's tuition
sent from one
of his accounts.
So--
What can you tell me
about Ranier Gerhardt?
I'm not comfortable with
your questions, Mr.
Wyatt.
I'd like to ask you
to leave.
Canada.
Everyone's so polite.
CRACK!
So
Mrs.
Hansby--
Can you tell me
about Mr.
Gerhardt?
Please?
I was a secret agent.
Betrayed by me own people.
Robbed of my face,
my memories, my history.
Hidden in my past
is a secret that threatens
all humanity.
I search for answers
with nothing to hold onto
but the tattoo
that has become my name.
I am XIII.
Original Air Date June 22, 2011
Call that up
again.
Third call to Jones in the
last hour - no answer.
Giordino?
Nothing since learning he was
headed back to North America.
Call again and check
if there've been hits
on XIII and Jones.
Yes, Sir.
Any NSA information requests--
I want them vetted.
Confirm with the
requesting department
by video conference
before we release any intel.
Jones is not getting
any help from me
unless I find out
exactly where she is.
I'll need to ask for
some credentials,
if you don't mind,
Mr.
Wyatt.
Not at all,
MrPaltz.
Yes, well--
Thank you, Mr.
Wyatt.
We can't be too
careful these days.
No
no, we can't.
Jennifer, would you please
locate Roger Hansby
and have him brought
to my office?
Yes, please,
thank you very much.
How many prodigies
are enrolled here?
Currently we have
fifty-three gifted children.
And what are
Roger's "gifts"?
He excels in all his
subjects, but he seems
to have a penchant
for political studies
and history,
particularly military.
Imagine it's pretty
expensive here.
Well--
Roger's benefactor has
beenquite generous.
In addition
to Roger's tuition,
he's paid for
our science lab.
Really--
Well, Mr.
Hansby
seemed comfortable,
but I didn't realize the
family was that well off.
No, I wasn't referring
to his parents.
It's a wealthy friend
of the family, I believe.
Well, that is generous.
Have you ever
met him?
No, he prefers to
remain anonymous.
Am I in some kind
of trouble?
No, no Roger.
Not at all.
This is Mr.
Wyatt from
the American Embassy.
Hello, Roger.
Your parents are in
a little difficulty.
Now, they had
to leave Toronto.
But, I'm going
to take you to them.
What kind
of difficulties?
It's a little
complicated.
Are they okay?
They're as safe
as can be.
I just talked to them.
Is it legal trouble?
I'm only through
first year procedure
but my friend Aaron could
pass the bar right now.
If he was old enough.
Maybe we could help
with the arraignment
or construct a defense
strategy if it goes that far.
Thank you,
Roger.
But that's a little
premature.
Alright, thank you,
Mr.
Paltz.
Let's get going.
Something just came
in from Canada.
Someone's trying hard
to keep their faces
off the security
cameras.
Probably used a laser
pointer to flare the lens.
Get me Harrison at
C.
I.
A.
Toronto on line.
KNOCK-KNOCK-KNOCK
Toronto's
a safe city.
It's not that safe.
Yeah?
They arrived.
Take care of it.
I'll check
the office.
Mr.
and
Mrs.
Hansby?
Situation in here!
Somebody needed
to get information fast.
Giordino.
I found bank
statements in the office.
More deposits from
the Gerhardt account.
That check in the vault
was for school tuition.
Which means a kid.
Yeah.
Jones, I found
the boy's room.
Kid's talented.
Not just that--
That's not exactly
World of Warcraft.
There's a note
in this.
"Roger, the lessons
contained in here
will serve us for a lifetime,
study them well.
R.
G.
"
R.
G.
Ranier Gerhardt.
Why is Gerhardt so
interested in this kid?
Maybe something to do
with the blood tests?
I don't think that's
the Hansbys.
C.
I.
A.
!
Prove it!
Yeah.
Facial rec?
Chief Harrison sent us, on
orders from Director Amos.
What are you
doing here?
We think we may have
a line on Giordino.
He's in Toronto?
Yeah.
Anything
on Gerhardt?
Not a clue.
Look, the couple that
lives here was killed.
We think Giordino might
have taken their kid.
Sir, I'm with XIII
and Jones.
They think Giordino may
have killed two people
and taken their son.
Don't!
What the hell
are you doing?
We never said
the kid was a boy.
Turn around.
THUD-THUD!
This isn't just about
Giordino anymore.
This kid could be
in danger.
He's gonna find it harder
to move around the city.
Unless Harrison's
working with Giordino
and he's holding back any
facial recs from Amos.
But he will know where
Giordino and that kid are.
You're going
to call him?
Voice to text.
XIII and Jones
got away.
Davis, get every agent
out on the street
looking for XIII
and Agent Jones.
They were headed towards
St.
Clair and Bathurst.
I want your eyes glued
to that computer
for facial rec.
Harrison is clearly
a Giordino loyalist.
He's going
to have every agent
in town chasing
after us.
I know.
You say it like
it's a good thing.
It is.
Why are you
calling me, Barnes?
We're prepped
for the operation.
And half the funds
are in your account
as we agreed,
so I ask you again,
why are you
calling me?
I'm not happy
with our terms.
You wait until now
to tell me this?
Since I got leverage,
it's the perfect time.
What do you want?
Full payment.
Before I pull
the trigger.
What's my guarantee
you won't take the money
and not go
through with it?
I'm a man of my word,
Sheridan.
You, I don't know
about so much.
The remainder of the
funds will be
in your account
within the hour.
Soon as I see it,
I give the green light.
But I'm warning you,
Barnes,
if I don't see reports
of your operation,
if I don't see
panicked faces
plastered all over
the media,
then you and your True Patriots
will be sharing a cell block
with the *** Brotherhood
in San Quentin.
Just keep your eye
on the news.
Mr.
Harrison--
Director Amos,
what can I do for you?
I have off the grid
assets in your territory
that I need secured.
Absolutely.
Just send us the details
and we'll throw out
the net.
It's Special Agent
Lauren Jones and
an independent contractor
she's traveling with.
I wasn't aware
she was in Toronto.
She didn't follow protocol
and check in with us.
I'll put the word on the
street immediately.
They shouldn't be difficult
for your people to find.
One of your assets tagged
them on a CCTV feed.
I was, um,
unaware of that.
We've been swamped with
urgent domestic issues,
but I'll get the team
right on it.
Harrison this is
a priority situation.
You will report to me
on the half- hour.
I'll call you
personally, Sir.
Can I help you?
THUD
AHHHHHHH!
Where's Giordino
and Roger Hansby?!
Go to hell!
AHHHHHHH!
You yell as loud
as you want.
Your guys are out chasing
after us, remember?
NOW WHERE
ARE THEY?!
I don't know.
AHHHH!
Broken bones heal.
This won't.
Last chance.
He picked the boy
up from his school!
He's taking him to meet
Gerhardt somewhere!
Why is this kid so
important to Giordino?
Giordino's using him for
some kind of leverage.
Something to do
with blood tests!
I got a message to
pass along from Gerhardt
about where Giordino
was supposed to meet him.
It was in code!
I don't know what it means!
Show us.
My computer--
Ahhhhhh!
Password!
Twelve seven,
nineteen forty one.
Pearl Harbor Day.
What the hell
just happened?
He went
for a hidden gun.
The Password
was bogus.
It was more
than that.
He sent out
an emergency signal.
We've got to
get out of here!
This is the fourth
refinery disaster
in the last
seven hours.
No official word yet
but the fact that this
may have been
a coordinated series
of attacks, has
to be considered.
Put the President
on the line, please.
What do we know?
Security at the refineries
was breached.
This was an attack,
Mr.
President.
Al Qaeda?
We've been monitoring
chatter on Jihadist sites.
No one's been hinting
at something like this.
What do you hear from our
people in the Middle East?
Evidence suggests we're
dealing with a domestic group.
Domestic?
The body of a member of
the True Patriot's movement
out of Idaho was found
at one of the sites.
True Patriots?
The leader is a man
named Lucius Barnes.
He's been on our
radar for years.
I've been advised an eighth
of our nation's fuel supply
could be cut off.
I want you to sweep Barnes'
compound and every other
Domestic Terrorist
Organization we know of.
Gloves off,
I want answers!
I'll deal with
the fallout later.
Yes, Sir,
Mr.
President.
We just got a C.
I.
A.
emergency alert from Toronto.
A distress signal.
Get Harrison back
on the line,
I was just talking
to him.
Haven't been able
contact him, Sir.
He's the one who
sent the alert.
We thoroughly
vetted that office?
About seventy percent
through the files, Sir.
Get the plane
ready.
I want to be in the air
in a half an hour.
Good news
and bad news.
Gimme the bad.
I don't know if
I'm going to be able
to break Harrison's
password.
And the good?
Harrison said Giordino's
leverage over Gerhardt
had something to do
with the blood tests
from the vault.
Those two people are
related to each other.
Who are they?
I could only access
the chemical workups
and compare them.
To figure out who
they belong to,
I need to use my
security clearance.
Then Amos
knows where we are.
Look, there might
be another way.
If Giordino's leverage
has something to do
with the blood tests
maybe it's because
one of them
belongs to Roger.
Can we access
the records through
the Canadian Health
Care system?
Unfortunately it
doesn't work like that.
Canadian Privacy
laws are very strict.
Only way to access
health records
is from a computer,
closed system.
Like a hospital?
Yeah, like
a hospital.
And they don't exactly
have low security.
Where are you
going?
Clothes shopping.
Thanks.
The first one's
for Roger Hansby.
And the second?
The system doesn't
recognize the code.
I'm checking Canadian
Public Records now.
Public Records say the
second one's not Canadian
it's U.
S.
based.
Access it with
your clearance.
It's a chance
we have to take.
Alright.
After I do this we're
going to have to
get on the
move again.
This could be
a problem.
What?
The second one--
It's the President's
daughter.
Kim Carrington.
I have a major security
breach on my hands.
One of my people,
special agent Lauren Jones
and an ex-spy are on
security video entering
that office just minutes
before Harrison was killed.
You have the full
cooperation
of Canadian Intelligence
office, Director.
We'll have our officers
out looking in minutes.
What have you got?
Jones just used
her security clearance.
Wireless triangulation gives
us a fifteen block perimeter.
But it's somewhere near
your current location.
Keep on it -
cell phones,
internet access,
security cameras,
I'll work it
from this end.
We just got
a hit.
Giordino knew Roger was
related to the President,
that's why he took him
as a bargaining chip
against Gerhardt.
So he's playing both sides,
with Roger in the middle.
We have to tell
the President.
They're within a quarter
of a mile of here
in any direction.
Any facial rec hits?
I want a detailed report
on the fiscal effects
of cutting the gasoline tax
forty to fifty percent.
I also want us to
consider subsidies
for residential
heating oil as well.
Take it on a
state-by-state basis,
we can't foot
the bill all alone.
Hopefully this is
a short term solution,
get us through
the winter.
Excuse me,
gentleman.
Where are you?
Toronto.
What the hell are
you doing there?
Giordino's here.
What?
What's he doing there?
He came to kidnap a boy
named Roger Hansby.
Why?
Because he's
your grandson.
Mr.
President?
Kim and I never had
any secrets between us.
I know this must be
a bit of a shock.
No--
I really don't think
that the--
There's a possibility
she could've
held something like
that back from me.
Are you sure?
There was information
about you
in Giordino's
Moscow bank vault.
There's a tuition check
to Roger's Hansby's parents
from Gerhardt, along with
two anonymous blood tests.
The blood tests are
Roger Hansby's
and your daughter,
Kim's, Sir.
Mr.
President,
I think you need
to place a call
to Director Amos.
Get me
Director Amos.
The Headmaster at
Roger Hansby's school
confirmed Frank
Giordino picked him up
using the name Frank
Wyatt, Mr.
President.
He had fake credentials
from Harrison.
From Harrison?
How do you know this?
Because he sent
You killed him?
He went
for a gun.
Harrison was sitting
on any facial rec.
that would have come
through on Frank Giordino.
And that's why nothing
popped up on your radar.
So Harrison might have
information in his file
On where Giordino's
taking Roger.
I'll get some
people on it, Sir.
Just make sure
they're not part
of Giordino's C.
I.
A.
softball team, okay?
Yes?
We just got
a facial rec.
hit
on Hansby
and Giordino.
Where?
Downtown core, two blocks
from Union Station.
Let's go.
NO.
I can have a team
in position in ten
minutes, Mr.
President.
Bad idea.
You don't know who
you can trust that team.
He's got a point there,
Amos.
We've got Giordino
backed up into a corner,
he's capable
of anything.
Furthermore,
I've been informed that
Ranier Gerhardt's holdings
include nuclear energy,
bio-tech and chemical
corporations.
Now, that weapon
could include
one of those,
or all three.
Furthermore--
If that meeting
was about obtaining
the final chip
in the third watch,
we've got to stay
on top of it.
And my grandson's
safety's at risk.
What do you
suggest, Mr.
President?
I want XIII
to handle this.
At this point he's the
only one I can trust.
Mr.
President.
Doesn't the
train leave soon?
I don't like hanging
around train stations.
Gets a little
How can I explain
this to you?
Claustrophobic?
Yes.
You want
something?
So how long until
we get to my parents?
The trip to Montreal
is about six hours.
But we're meeting
someone else on the train.
He's a good friend
of your family's,
he's been paying for
all your schooling.
You mean
my Uncle Ranier.
He's not my
real uncle.
I've always just
called him that.
When was the last
time you saw him?
I've never actually
met him.
But I've talked to
him on the phone.
He sends me
things,
gifts on holidays,
books, letters.
You mean e-mails?
Never e-mails.
Just old-fashioned,
typewritten letters.
Where does he
send them from?
There's never
a return address.
I don't suppose you've ever
seen a picture of him either.
How did you know?
Lucky guess.
What kind of trouble
are my parents in?
It's kind of
complicated.
Even for you.
I imagine it doesn't
have Domestic Criminal
or Political Ramifications
if they're still in Canada.
That's one
good thing, right?
Thank you,
Mr.
President.
Amos accessed
Harrison's records.
He bought two train
tickets yesterday.
One adult.
One child.
Train number?
Line 73 to Montreal,
left about 15 minutes ago.
Amos wants
to scramble a team,
stop it outside
the city.
Carrington?
He doesn't like it,
But what choice
does he have?
Bring up a map
of the train route.
That!
knock-knock
Come in.
Thank you.
Attention passengers, we will
be arriving in Toronto
Union Station
in five minutes.
Five minutes,
Union Station, Toronto.
Good luck.
I don't know if
I believe in it.
Maybe you
should start.
THUD!
Tickets, please.
Good evening.
Oh, Montreal
Spectacular this
time of year, yeah?
Yeah, so I hear.
You have
never been?
No.
You seem a little tense.
Everything alright?
Just a lot
on my mind.
You need a hobby,
do you have one?
Every man needs
a hobby.
Something to remove the
rigors of everyday life,
don't you agree?
I don't really have
much time.
Mine
Is
Magic.
Illusion.
Creating a reality
in somebody's mind
That really
doesn't even exist.
Please,
indulge me.
Choose a card.
Ah, don't tell me.
Now shuffle.
Very impressive.
I've been studying how
to read people for years.
It's simple
observation.
No, no--
Memory
is the key.
For without memory
Everything it lost.
Excuse me.
For you.
For luck, yeah?
I'm not sure
I believe in it.
Whether you do
or not,
what do you
have to lose, eh?
I've got Giordino!
Give me a second.
We've got the President
on the line.
XIII's located
Giordino, Sir.
Yeah, he's
with Roger.
They're talking to a guy
about fifty,
Tall, blonde hair,
it could be Gerhardt.
The most recent photo
we have of him
is about fifteen
years old.
What are you
thinking?
It's a long trip
to Montreal.
They can't stay in that
compartment forever.
I'll wait until
they come out,
deal with them
one at a time.
As soon as you're sure
Roger's safe, call me.
Amos' team
is standing by.
Sir?
Jones?
I can't hear you--
XIII?
What's happening?
We've lost him, Sir.
There's no service.
Amos, you said
there wouldn't be
any dead spots
on that train.
There aren't any,
Sir.
At least not from the
cell phone company.
He's being
jammed?
That's the only
answer.
That means Gerhardt
knows XIII's on that train.
Mr.
President, I have
teams in position
to intercept that train.
Move them in.
We're going to
intercept the train.
Get the team
ready--
When?
Then re-scramble.
What's
happening?
The train is not heading
to Montreal anymore.
It switched tracks,
unscheduled 3 miles back.
We need to
re-organize and liaise
with Canadian authorities
and until that happens,
I can't get my team
into a new position
ahead of that train.
XIII's on his own.
Sheridan?
Well, what a surprise.
I'm used to getting
calls from your
secretary these days.
Heike?
She's not a secretary,
she's more of
Afacilitator.
And you're sure your
"facilitator" can be trusted?
I don't like discussing
sensitive issues
with people I don't
know, Gerhardt.
I don't believe you
discussed "sensitive issues".
The fact that I'm calling
you is a sensitive issue.
Well, I trust her so you'll
just have to trust me.
And something interesting story
in the news today.
A disaster with the
U.
S.
oil supply.
One man's disaster is
another man's opportunity.
Nicely done, but you
will have to go further
if you want
the U.
S.
population
to embrace you when
we get the weapon.
And when will
that be?
Well I'm working on
a lead with Max Serle
and that third watch
probably by
the end of the day.
I've still got a
few more moves
I can play
on Carrington.
If there are no loose
ends to impede me.
Don't worry, I'll
tie up this one.
And I'll be in touch.
What did Giordino
tell you?!
Please, I'm not who
you think I am.
I know!
Gerhardt wouldn't be
stupid enough
to expose
himself directly.
He paid me to
pretend I was him.
WHAT ELSE?
I was to meet a man
in the next car
with a young boy.
I was suppose to find out
what he wanted,
and report back.
Did he give you
a phone number?
No.
He's on the train.
Dark suit, older guy,
walks with a cane?
Yes.
What did the guy
with the kid tell you?
He was close to
knowing the location
of someone named Max.
He wanted safe passage
to Argentina, new identity,
and a bank account
when he got there.
Exactly what did
he tell you about Max?
What's happening?
Let me go!
I suppose you know
who this is.
Let me go!
Don't worry,
Roger.
This man wants
to hurt us,
but I'm going to make sure
that doesn't happen.
You're a smart kid,
Roger.
If he was telling
the truth,
he wouldn't have
a gun to your head.
Don't listen to him,
Roger,
we're going to move
slowly to the next car.
Your Uncle Ranier
is going
to make sure
everything's all right.
That guy you were talking
to wasn't Gerhardt.
He was playing you.
Drop the gun.
Drop it!
This is stupid!
We could be helping
each other!
You killed Sam!
You were running
through the woods
hand in hand
with Irina,
she was the
one who shot her!
Or didn't she neglect
to tell you that?
If you want to find
out who you are--
Pull me in!
I know who I am!
You think you're
Ryan Flay?
You think you were
born in Green Falls?!
You and everyone else
have been lying
to me about
who I am!
It's time I set an
example for anyone
who thinks about
doing it again!
Ahhhhhh!
Oh, it's been a grand
adventure so far,
don't you think?
I only wish you could
remember the journey
when you first
went through it,
so you had something
to compare it to.
This ends here.
I don't think so.
You still have another
watch to look for.
I found the first two
without your help,
I can find the third.
Without my help?
You sure give yourself
a lot of credit, don't you!
I hid that weapon
from you
and the world
five years ago.
You're not getting
your hands on it now.
Stay there,
okay?
We finished analyzing the
True Patriots phone records.
What have you got?
Lucius Barnes received
a series of calls
from the same scrambled
number from the US
over the past
few weeks.
Several occurred the day
of the refinery attacks.
Can we
trace them?
We're working on it,
but we did determine
the calls that day
came from somewhere
in western
Pennsylvania.
Wally Sheridan was
doing press interviews
in western Pennsylvania
on that day.
It's all over now.
This is Agent Jones.
She works
for the President.
Secret Service?
I used to be.
Listen, Roger,
we're going
to take you
to Washington D.
C.
to meet your
grandfather, okay?
Something happened
to my parentsdidn't it?
I'm afraid so.
I know they weren't
my real parents.
Just like Ranier Gerhardt's
not really my Uncle.
Listen, Roger
would you give us a minute?
Crews have been
out all night.
No sign
of Gerhardt.
Giordino?
Haven't found
the body.
I could have asked
him about Max.
You think he would have
actually told you something?
He told me
Irina killed Sam.
And that I wasn't
Ryan Flay.
You think he was
telling you the truth?
I suppose he would
have said anything.
Look, you need to know
who you really are.
Yeah, but right now we've
got to deal with this.
That's a kid who's really
going to need his grandfather.
It's a terrible burden losing
your parents at that age.
I wish my amnesia
was contagious.
That's a risky move leaving
your left side open.
A calculated one.
Just like on the
train when that guy
was pointing
the gun at me.
I pushed into the extensor
muscle in his forearm -
it controls the tendons
that regulate
index finger
movement.
Where did you
learn about that?
Self defense
classes.
Did your Uncle ask
you to take those?
That and shooting
lessons.
What else
are you studying?
A little bit
of everything.
Uncle Ranier sends me
books on languages,
International relations
Military strategy.
Did he ever talk about you
working for him one day?
Yeah.
Roger--
I'd like to introduce you
to the President
of the United States.
Your grandfather.
It's an honor
to meet you, Sir.
And you, as well.
Why don't you
sit down.
And you don't have
to call me "Sir".
Mr.
President?
Why don't you
start with Ben,
go from there.
Roger, I am--
I'm so sorry about
what happened
to your parents.
I really wish I could know
my real Mom and Dad.
This is my daughter,
Kim.
Your mother.
She was a
wonderful woman.
But she had a
well--
A complicated life.
I'm sure she felt
the Hansbys
at the time could take
better care of you.
So, can I see the rest
of the White House?
Yeah, sure.
Come on, I'll give
you a personal tour.
Where did you
get that pen?
Oh that?
It was
my predecessor's.
President Sheridan?
That's right.
Where did you
get that, Roger?
My Uncle Ranier
gave it to me.
He said it belonged
to my Dad.
I never met him.
It was the only
thing I had of his.
My Dad and my Grandfather
are both Presidents.
