Previously on Reacher...
[Duffy] You were face-to-face with the guy.
-You could've killed him. -Wasn't the time.
[Duffy] Because you found out Teresa's still alive?
Is that the cop you killed
-at my school? -[Reacher] Those people back there
were DEA agents.
They asked me to help them find a missing woman that worked for your father.
[Quinn] Some army punk and a PI in Chicago
accessed files on my guys.
Both in the 110th Special Investigators.
-Reacher was in the 110th. -Go put a bullet
in his fucking head!
[Reacher] Need you to come get me. My cover's blown.
A couple of professional bad guys just took a run at me.
Said he was sent by somebody named Costopoulos.
-Do it again! -[Quinn] No! Please!
I'll give you anything.
I want a matching set.
-[Reacher] Teresa's on the Sweet Marie. -[grunts]
-Where is she now? -[Harley] They moved her somewhere so McCabe
could watch her himself.
[Duffy] That's our last lead
burning up out there.
[Reacher] That's not exactly true.

Julius McCabe?
That a question?
Were you maybe gonna say Xavier Quinn?
There's only a few people left alive who know that name.
About to be one less unless you tell me where to find your boss.
Let me explain your situation.
It's early. All your neighbors are asleep.
Soon they'll hear a gunshot.
By the time they get to the window and look outside, I'm gone.
I have no ties to you, my gun's clean
and I've got a program on my laptop that'll make it look I was at home
searching for end tables on Wayfair when you died.
So the only thing stopping me from killing you
is my patience.
[tense music playing]
Look, he-he's not my boss anymore,
but I was Quinn's fixer back when he was set up here.
-He was in Chicago? -Till, like, five years ago.
Took over a family-run export business,
but shit went really pear-shaped.
-How? -Uh, family'd had enough.
Threatened to talk to the authorities if Quinn didn't leave them alone,
so they all turned up dead.
Even the kids.
And then?
He found another business he could muscle his way in on,
out in Portland fucking Maine.
What business?
Bizarre Bazaar.
Gunrunner passed himself off as some kind of carpet king.
Quinn probably figured, you know, the guy's already dirty,
so he's less likely to snitch.
But if he's hiring out hits,
then something's gone wrong.
Yeah, he's cleaning up before raising his anchor again.
And that family out in Maine is about to get bodied,
just like the one in Chicago.
Bizarre Bazaar. Portland. Dead family. Got it.
So, you gonna shoot me? Right in front of children?
No.

He's a smart little fuck, too.
Cuts his junk with just enough crap to amp up profits
and laces it with just enough fentanyl to make it more addictive.
I've personally seen
a half a dozen 15-year-olds in Hawaiian Gardens
blue and bloated from his product.
-Any competitors? -Hardly, anymore.
The competition he did have has all mysteriously died
of projectile lead poisoning
from weapons supplied by Beck and Quinn.
He's got the firepower of a small army.
And he never pulls the trigger.
Has only two convictions, when he was, like, 20:
assault with a deadly weapon and battery.
Quinn's selling some serious machinery.
Even with admissible evidence, an arrest could be a bloodbath.
Darien could get away or catch a bullet, and we need him alive and talking.
You have any more tapes?
Mm. Some, but it's worth next to nothing.
Early on, Eliot and I followed his movements around town,
but it was pretty obvious
he wasn't gonna carry product in city limits, only out in the boonies.
So we nixed the tail after a few days,
but we learned a few things.
He keeps a tight routine.

FBI? DEA?
We're with the GUD. Stands for "get up, dickhead."

'Cause I don't see a warrant.
No paper, no cooperation.
Well, fine.
But you didn't have to shove her over it.
Fuck you talking about, "shove"?
You just stood up and pushed a DEA agent
who simply wanted to ask you a few questions.
That's what my report'll say. That's a federal felony.
We can arrest you right now,
jam you up for years with court dates and expensive lawyers.
We'll lie our asses off to make sure you're convicted.
Might even do a few months inside.
Or...
you can come with us, have a conversation.

I've seen money laundered through bars,
massage parlors, even a petting zoo once,
but this is some high-class shit, Darien.
[Darien] Glad you appreciate it.
And this is a legitimate business.
I don't know anything about money laundering.
[Reacher] Are you familiar with 18 U.S. Code Section 3559-C?
Also known as the federal "three strikes" law?
Maybe.
Let me dumb it down for you.
You commit three serious violent felonies
and it's a mandatory life sentence.
You already have two priors.
Well, looks like you're one short, so fuck you.
Pretty tough talk.
I'd fight you, but I'd never beat up someone who's handicapped.
Is that your car?
You know it is.
That your handicap placard in the windshield?
[chuckles] Wait, is that what you got on me--
-some parking violations? -[Reacher] It's a little more than that.
We tracked down the doctor who attested to your...
ailment.
Seems you threatened him with violence
if he didn't say that you had severe arthritis in both knees.
That's obtaining something through threat of force,
also known as extortion,
also known as a violent felony.
One, two, three strikes.
You're fucked, asshole.
That's bullshit!
I didn't threaten that doctor. I asked him
-and he did it. -Yeah, that's what he said.
Then I threatened him with loss of his medical license
and a federal wire fraud charge since he emailed his affidavit to the DMV.
He changed his tune. He'll say whatever we tell him to say.
Only person doing the extortion here is you.
Now he's getting it.
So, you spend the rest of your existence
in prison or you do us a favor.

What kind of favor?
Yeah, tomorrow morning.
No. No way I'm jumping on a red-eye

-[door opens] -We had a deal, man.

Not about what they find in here.
Nothing turns up, you don't have anything to worry about.
But any purchase orders, deposit slips, withdrawal receipts
that don't trace back to crystal-clear sources--
well, you might want to call a lawyer.

me or Duff should be handling this.
Harley could tell you were feds from a quick glance in a dark warehouse.
In daylight, might as well be wearing a badge around your neck.
Here we go.
Hello, Mr. Beck.
Just keep acting like we're making a gun deal, okay?
Reacher sent me. Only way he could get to you.
That son of a bitch got my ear cut off.
Why would I want to have anything to do with him?
Because you and Richard are dead if you don't.
Got your attention? Good.
Your boss, McCabe-- his real name's Xavier Quinn.
Before he came to Maine, he had taken over a business like yours in Chicago.
Soon as he felt threatened, he killed the entire family that owned it,
created a new identity and disappeared.
And he's about to do the same thing to you and your kid now.
- How do I know you-- -That I'm legit?
Quinn ever mention a PI in Chicago that he tried to kill?
-I'm her. -No shit.
Reacher needs to know when and where the big buy is happening
so he can take care of Quinn before Quinn takes care of you.
Look, I don't know anymore.
McCabe-- or Quinn--
he moved it after we found out Reacher was a plant.
He won't tell you the new plan?
I brought two undercover feds into the house.
He doesn't trust me.
He says I should just put on my little birthday hat
-and focus on my party. -What party?
My birthday. Quinn won't let me cancel it.
He thinks now that feds are watching, something out of the ordinary
like pulling the plug at the last minute is gonna put them on alert.
So, I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do.
Then I guess you're of no use to us.
Good luck.
Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
You have to get us out.
McCabe made my son play Russian roulette in front of me.
So I can only imagine what he would do to Richard
if he found out that I betrayed him.
You don't betray him, you won't have to imagine.
You both know too much to be kept alive.
Reacher is your last hope.
Look, all I know is that
the buyers are flying in sometime today from Yemen.
It's a private airfield somewhere nearby. I don't know which.
-How long are they in town? -No idea.
I've been relegated to "need to know."
Wel, then make it so you need to know.
Find out when and where the buyers are getting the guns
and the woman Quinn's holding.
What, the girl?
I've got no clue where they're keeping her.
I know.
Reacher thought you did, his hands would be around your neck by now.
Hey. What about Darien?
McCabe's expecting me to come back with cash.
Tell him I tried to renegotiate the price and you walked.
Now get back before your driver gets suspicious.
Listen.
Best-case scenario here...
...I'll survive, I'll spend the rest of my life in prison.
But I need one thing to be clear.
My son had nothing to do with any of this.

[Villanueva] So, we got a massive gun shipment going to one set of buyers
from an unstable country with poor U.S. relations.
That about sums it up?
It's for a terrorist strike.
It'll be ambitious and it'll be here at home.
-What makes you think that? -Beck's an expert at shipping logistics.
Quinn could easily have him drop the guns right at the buyer's doorstep.
Only reason that wouldn't be done...
Is if the guns are already where you're gonna use 'em.
Exactly. Right here in the U.S.
My brother Joe once told me Homeland estimates
there's a few hundred sleeper cells spread out across the U.S.
at any given time.
Yemeni buyers distribute Beck's weapons to a few sleepers,
they could hit convention centers, stadiums, airports.
-Simultaneously timed attacks in crowded areas. -Total carnage.
All Beck knows as of now is that they land today at a private airstrip.
I'm betting on Sanford Regional Airfield.
Bushes use it when they come to Kennebunkport.
It's discreet and willing to turn a blind eye on regulations.
We could hunt down a flight manifest.
I mean, how many private planes will be coming in from Yemen today?
Any friends at the FAA?
I'll make some calls.

You told me Quinn was dead.
So how'd he end up alive?
Small-caliber bullet, cold water, bad luck.

These aren't counterfeiters in Margrave or ex-cops in New York.
Quinn and his men are trained soldiers with a stockpile of badass guns
-that can rip us in half. -Yep.
Just wanted to say it out loud.
'Cause it's making you reconsider?
'Cause it should.
'Cause I want you to know I know the risks.

And we've always known we'd need help when the time eventually came.
We were hoping you'd come around on your own.
No.
Reacher, we need to give ourselves the best possible chance
of saving Teresa and keeping the guns out of the buyers' hands.
You don't need to remind me what's at stake here.
Based on that conversation with Beck, it sounds like I do.
'Cause I didn't hear any mention of stopping terrorists or saving a girl.
I just heard "Quinn."
I'll keep my promise.
Teresa will be found. But Quinn killed my friend.
Mine, too. Eliot's as dead as Kohl is.
As is an ATF agent.
At this stage, they need to be made aware.
They'll never let me take down Quinn,

He got away over a decade ago,
but I was promised I'd be the one to take him down now.
I didn't promise you anything.
This Quinn or McCabe or whoever he is--
he's ours.
You can hang out in the surveillance van with your DEA buddies.
No.
Your other option is to fuck off.
He'll wait in the van with us.
Once we handle the arrests at point of sale,
we'll go directly to Beck's
and clean up the rest of your mess.
I'm sure you were aware what would happen to your careers
when you decided to walk in here today.
Because, as you can imagine,
I have no choice but to put in a call to the DEA
regarding your conduct on this case.
Agent Sears, I'm the senior officer to Agent Duffy.
She was only following my orders.
Shut up, Guillermo.
Every decision that led to this was my call.
The heat's mine.
I wouldn't worry.
There'll be plenty of heat to go around.
[groans]
-Take this, too. -Got it.
You're mad at me.
I'm mad Quinn's getting away with it.
He's not.
They're gonna arrest him and he'll get what he deserves.
No. He'll get food, TV,
blanket and a cot not much worse than this bed.
That's more than he deserves.
He deserves pain.
You know, when he gets locked up,
I bet the Russians he owes money to
take him out on the inside.
You don't want anyone else
to do it but you.
You want to look him in the eyes the moment you know he's dying.
I want my Cousin Rhonda moment.
I know.
But that can't happen at Teresa's expense.
What did your old boss Garber used to say?
"Never get distracted from the exact job at hand."
Well, my exact job at hand is Teresa.
I can't let her become my Kohl.
Can you understand that?
Yes.
Then thank you.
Hey, Latham.
How much longer is this gonna take?
Thirty, 40 minutes.
Okay, the exchange is at 9:00.
Make sure the trucks aren't late.
-I'll meet you over there. -Why?
You got somewhere more important to be?
Yeah, I got to get dressed. It's my fucking birthday.
-[indistinct chatter] -[drums warming up in distance]
[band continues warming up in distance]
Hey.
-Need a hand? -Yeah, thanks.
Yeah.
Let me see.
-[chuckles] -What?
Nah, sometimes it just hits me how much you look like your mother.
So, listen.
I got to step out for a while.
What? The party's about to start. Uh, guests'll be showing up soon.
I have no choice.
Will you be okay?
Yeah.
It's the end of all of this.
But I need you to do something for me.
Tonight, 9:00,
I want you to come back up to your room here and lock the door.
-[sighs] -Can you do that for me?
-[sighs] Dad, I-- -Richard.
Please, can you do that? 9:00.
Yeah, okay.
I love you, son.
Touching, but you're needed elsewhere.
[tense music playing]
[exhales]
-[Wolcott] Moran, check in. -[Moran] On your call.
-Martinez. -[Martinez] Standing by.
-Harris? -[Harris] Ready.
-Breslin. -[Breslin] Ready here.
-Kimmick. -[Kimmick] Copy.
No engagement until my signal
on visual confirmation of the package.
Hey, remember, we need eyes on Teresa before any shots are fired.
We'll do everything we can.
That's not good enough. She's counting on us.
The moment we can get to Teresa,
I will personally move her to safety.
[Moran] We've got company.
Copy. Oscar Mike.
[Duffy] Okay, that'll be the guns.
And Beck and Quinn and Teresa.
We're almost home.
-[Villanueva] Where you going? -Getting some air.
He's pissed.
Can't say that I blame him.
[grunts softly]
Are you shitting me?
You should go back to the van.
You said you understood my position.
I do understand it. I just don't agree with it.
Don't pull Reacher semantics bullshit with me.
Duffy, I respect you professionally and I like you personally.
But Quinn's gonna step out of that car right into my crosshairs
and he's not getting away again.
So, this is how you do things, huh?
You tell me what I want to hear, then you go to a gun shop
and buy a sniper rifle when you say you're stepping out to get coffee?
It was a pawn shop.
The ATF won't let you get away with this.
You'll have feds on your ass the rest of your life.
You'll have to bounce from town to town,
always on the move, forever.
Doesn't really affect me then, does it? Now, unless
you think you can get this gun out of my hands
without killing me, step back.
Everything okay?
[phone rings]
Boss?
The second this is over you need to dump your phone's SIM cards,
wipe your servers and delete anything that connects you to me
-for the past week. -'Cause you're about to do something
that'll piss off a lot of people in the federal government?
'Cause I'm about to do something I don't want you connected to.
Buyers are here. I got to go.
Peel off and do what I said.
What do you mean, "the buyers are here?"
I'm still following them right now.
Black SUV just pulled up.
Whoever it is, it's not the buyers.
Been on them since they left the hotel.
Heading down some two-lane forest road
with my lights off for about seven, eight miles now.
The road you're on-- does it follow the coastline?
Yeah. Why?
They're headed to Beck's house.
That's where the deal's taking place.
Don't let 'em see you.
Stay close to the compound in case they try to leave with Teresa.
I don't follow.
Quinn's not here. It's a trap.
