Previously on The Cape...
Palm City needs a godfather.
What's your answer?
I like it.
You haven't posted anything in four days.
Right now, you know, it really doesn't feel
like Orwell is watching much of anything anymore.
If you can't function, you're a danger.
Get out of my head or find another partner.
What is this, an appetizer?
We had some unforeseen difficulties.
That shouldn't change the weight of ARK's envelope.
Got you.
Orwell Is Watching is about to get the exclusive of the decade.
You okay?
Yes, Vince.
Everything's wonderful.
No, please.
No.
Chimera.
Stop.
Please.
Tonight, shocking video footage has surfaced
suggesting a massive, city-wide conspiracy
between ARK Corporation and organized crime
that could reach all the way to the top.
The recording, sent courtesy of the investigative blogger, Orwell,
has city officials tonight demanding...
Hey.
You did it! Well, we did it.
Now, the billionaire CEO of ARK who, in recent months...
Are you okay?
With the private ARK's elite security team, now finds himself
in the crosshairs of his own corruption investigation.
It's just migraines.
Orwell, talk to me.
Why do you want to know?
Why is it so interesting to you?
Because I'm your friend.
What... What the hell is wrong with you?
Nothing, I'm just...
The headaches come in waves.
It will be over soon.
I'm sorry, Vince.
It's okay.
The men in this video have been identified
as ARKsecurity captain, Mick Reese,
and accused smuggler and organized crime boss, Dominic Raoul
and his associates.
You throw Peter Fleming and ARK Corporation 20%
and a few fish for the newspapers,
and Trolley Park, the boroughs, the ports, they're all yours.
That's not only reasonable. That's charitable.
Fleming's human after all.
I am shocked
and concerned, over this investigation.
But it only confirms what I myself
have just recently been made aware of,
that high level ARK officials have been working in collusion
with organized crime in Palm City for months.
I accept full responsibility.
I only ask the citizens of Palm City
to give me a chance to complete my own internal investigations
and to bring those responsible to justice.
In fact, at this very moment I have ARK troops
ready to make an arrest in the case.
Wait, where is he going with this?
Buckle up, it's his counter move.
Let's go.
Mr. Fleming.
Mr. Fleming!
An announcement will be made shortly, in the meantime...
Why aren't you there?
Fleming ordered us to stand down.
Well, you're chief of police,
you should be having your own press conference.
Woman, can you do me a favor and not tell me how to do my job?
The job is tearing you up. I'm fine.
Well, it's tearing us up.
Babe, come on. You're a ghost in this house.
Resign.
Just do it, just quit ARK altogether.
I can't just quit ARK.
Doesn't work like that.
Hey. Yeah.
What did Blake get?
Okay.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Get down on the floor. Get down!
What's going on?
What is this? You can't do this!
Stand down! Chief Voyt, you're under arrest.
For what?
Stay back!
Come on, let's go.
Baby. Don't point that gun at my wife!
You...
Look at this as an opportunity, Marty,
you can finally earn your salary.
You come into my house,
you terrify my kids, my wife,
and you expect me to play ball?
I expect you to shut up and listen.
First, there's not a judge in this town
who will hear your case, I'll see to that.
Your own attorney won't take your calls.
You can tell Susan to stop trying.
I filed an emergency court order to freeze your assets.
You've got no money.
No. No, you can't do that.
No, but the district attorney can,
and I own the district attorney.
Your family will be provided for.
In return you take the fall.
You do your time, and you keep your mouth shut.
And if I don't?
Then I kill anyone who tries to help you, including Susan
and Layla and little C.J.
If you even think about touching my family I will kill you.
You'll be found hanging in a cell by your bed sheets.
This is my house.
We have breaking news in Palm City tonight,
and it's news that is...
Fleming's doing to Marty exactly what he did to me.
Except he's on the defensive.
We blind-sided him, Vince.
We can get ahead of him this time.
He's the only one who can prove Fleming is Chess.
We get him to talk, know what that means?
Marty proves Fleming is Chess,
my name is cleared,
and I go home.
Marty's got a public defender.
You can't be here, Dana. I don't want your help.
You've been tried and convicted on the TV news.
Your life destroyed in a matter of hours,
not a friend left in the world.
How does it feel?
I'm telling you as a friend,
walk away.
Are you guilty of this?
You know I have evidence Vince was framed.
Now I think you're being framed.
You tell me that that's a coincidence.
Just hear me out!
I'm all you've got, Marty.
You know too much, about Fleming,
about ARK's link to organized crime,
about Vince's murder.
Why can't you just let this go?
I know you're scared.
Scared?
This man threatened...
I've got to protect my family.
You tell the truth about Fleming,
I'll work on a deal to get you,
Susan and the kids into protective custody.
Dana. Dana, you are way out of your league,
Fleming will never let you do this.
Marty if you cave to him,
your kids grow up thinking that their dad was just
some corrupt cop.
Trip deals with that.
I know you Marty.
You were Vince's best man.
I was there when Layla was born.
You are family.
I won't walk away from you.
Let me give you the chance that Vince never got.
Will you at least think about it?
I'll work on bail.
She's walking into a buzz saw taking on Fleming. She must know that.
Oh, she knows.
So you're gonna try to talk her out of it?
I couldn't get her to buy generic aspirin.
So what are you gonna do?
I'm gonna get between my wife and the buzz saw.
There you are.
Thought your men would have come to you, Peter.
Zhao tailors presidents and kings,
and never leaves his shop.
The common touch. I respect that.
A bit dodgy meeting in a place like this, isn't it?
People might get the wrong idea about us.
It was your mug on that tape, Dominic, not mine.
I was portrayed as the victim, mate.
Working-class lad gets the old shakedown.
Nah.
It's your butt on the crapper with this one, mate. Not mine.
But if I go away what happens to you? Hmm?
Without me, you're no longer the godfather of crime in Palm City.
No, not me. Him, mate.
Really?
Pete! Thank you.
How nice.
So. What about Marty Voyt?
Have you got him in hand?
So far, but I fear this Faraday lawyer
is on a bit of a crusade.
She can pull Voyt's heart strings, get him talking,
and then we have a problem.
You want me to send the boys round, give her a little message?
I don't want to make a martyr of her, just shut her down.
And your chief?
My people can handle him.
It's enough we can rely on your continued discretion, Dominic.
Well, you know I'm worth a bit more than the price of a Shantung suit,
don't you, Chess?
I've made up my mind, Travis.
You don't have the authority to make up your mind.
I'm still your boss. Remember me?
Are you barring me from taking this case?
This is about your husband, Dana.
It is.
And Fleming's raft of obscenely paid attorneys
will go after you for that.
How's that gonna help Chief Voyt's defense?
This is why I need you as my co-counsel.
There is no way the chief is gonna get a fair deal in Palm City.
We get him out of town,
he's got a shot. Out of town?
I wanna do an end-run around the DA and go straight to the Feds.
Voyt turns state's evidence against Fleming,
we get a federal commitment to Witness Protection.
Simple as that.
Well, I have a friend at Justice.
I can try to get the ball rolling.
In the meantime, we need a real plan to defend this man.
Agreed.
I've got to get home to Trip.
Yeah, and I have a date with the vending machines.
I'm sure I'm forgetting something,
and I will call you in five minutes.
Why would tonight be any different?
What did you forget?
I hate to break her pretty legs.
Talk some sense into her, Counselor, or her kid is next.
Dana.
You okay?
I... I think so. Just a little scared.
This won't stop.
Fleming won't stop. You have to think of your son.
My son? Why do you think I'm doing this?
Dana!
You all right?
It's the first thing I grabbed.
Yeah, I'm fine. Travis, The Cape was here.
Yeah, okay, good.
High profile case like this, you let her walk down here by herself?
Listen, I didn't even want her on this thing.
You have no idea how hard-headed she can be.
Oh, and you do?
And I'm explaining myself to you because why?
Okay, we all agree that I'm hard-headed.
Yeah. Hi. Listen, you're right,
I need to be much more careful. I am now a target.
And why? Because until tonight,
I only had a hunch that Marty knew something about my husband's death.
And now, there is not a doubt in my mind.
He has to testify against Fleming,
and I don't expect either of you to understand,
but to me, it's worth the risk.
You're not alone.
Right?
Of course.
Look at me.
When things went down with Vince,
I kept thinking, "Thank God that's not us."
He got wrapped up in some bad things, Marty.
Were you involved?
Trying to help him with this job at ARK?
Is that why Dana's helping us?
No, no, no, no, no, baby.
It's not what you're thinking.
Dana.
That night she came to our house,
she said your were keeping things from her about Vince.
Is it true?
Yes.
Fleming was involved.
So if I...
If I make this deal and testify against Fleming,
you're gonna...
You're gonna hear some horrible things about me.
Baby, I falsified evidence,
I turned a blind eye to Fleming's cronies.
I took part in some...
You have been lying to me for months!
Baby, no.
No. Come on, no.
You knew.
You just didn't want to see it.
He threatened you and the kids.
I gotta protect my own.
It doesn't make it right, but...
If I make this deal,
we can start all over again.
New identity, new life.
Leave everything behind.
Yeah, we'll lose a lot.
But we'll be together.
You have got to stop this man.
Before he destroys someone else's family.
Look, I'll stand with you,
but you have got to do the right thing.
Chief, you made bail.
Dana.
Bringing it to you live, as police chief Marty Voyt
is moments away from being released on bail.
Dana Faraday, public defender.
Marty. What the hell are you thinking?
You were supposed to sit tight.
Whoa, whoa, Dana. I thought you were the one who set this up.
No. We had nothing to do this. Ma'am, we're on orders.
No, I'm his attorney. There is a mob out there.
Whoa, whoa, wait a minute, guys. Wait a minute. Wait...
Chief Voyt, Chief Voyt!
No comment. No comment. No comment.
Orwell, what do you got for me?
Whoever posted a bail wants to stay anonymous.
This feels like a setup.
Don't touch me.
Get to Marty's house, get the kids out.
Anything happens, I want them safe.
We need to get you back inside. Come on, let's go.
She's got a gun.
What was that?
Chief of police, Marty Voyt, made a stunning disappearance
on the courthouse steps
by way of a caped, masked individual who we are trying to get a lead on.
Palm City is in lockdown.
ARK has closed off the 40th Street Bridge
and every major artery into the city.
I am Max Malini,
and welcome to Ilusiones Velastigui.
Romeo Velastigui is a friend who kindly loaned us his shop.
For now. You and your family will be safe here.
Let me show you around.
Make yourself at home.
Is that really necessary?
Where is your son?
He is with my parents. There is no one I trust more.
I turned that off. Why are you doing that?
Fleming can remote activate it.
This thing is a GPS. You want to send up a flare?
Why are you angry at me?
I'm not angry.
Okay.
Why are you doing this for us?
What do you get out of it?
I'm not angry with you.
We're working on a plan to get him out of Palm City.
Until then, we sit tight.
I've blockaded the bridges, the ports.
The bus lanes, the toll roads and airports.
Marty Voyt won't leave Palm City alive.
Neither should that moth-eaten Cape, if you ask me.
Actually, Dominic, I am asking you.
I can't rely on my own people.
You are the only one I can trust to get the job done.
What about our business arrangement?
Looking to the future and all, I won't have to pay the juice anymore.
But you'll be paying me.
That's only fair.
But I want them both, the Chief and The Cape.
Consider it done.
Base, this is Sexton.
We got anything on those cell phone tracers yet?
We may have a live one.
Hey, hey, hey, hey. Daddy.
You okay?
I am now. Yeah.
I was scared.
What's up champ?
I like your boots.
Mmm... I like your purse on wheels.
It's a backpack.
I never had one.
You be a tough cookie, okay?
They set up checkpoints.
Bridges, tunnels.
City's on lockdown.
Hey.
We have a small freight train that we sometimes use for the carnival.
We could have it meet us.
We could have one of our friends in the engine cab.
Hmm.
We get them across state lines.
Carnival's done it a dozen times.
Don't ask why. But you're forgetting one thing.
We'd have to get them through Trolley Park to the freight yard alive.
We're running out of time. How soon can you get this train here?
Dawn, maybe.
Do it.
Dana.
In case this whole thing goes south, there's something you need to know.
Can we go talk somewhere?
Okay.
Okay, listen, I know that this is gonna probably come out on the record,
but I just... There is a part of it that I want you to hear from me first.
Okay.
Dana, Vince was innocent.
He was framed,
and I helped frame him.
You came to me, you showed me evidence that Vince was...
They were lies. They were all lies. He was clean.
He found weapons that ARK was shipping off.
They were illegal weapons, and he was gonna blow the whistle.
That night I was... I didn't want him to go.
You were there.
I couldn't stop him.
I tried. I really did. I tried.
What were his last words, Marty?
I don't know.
You tell me. You were there.
I don't know. I don't know.
You broke his heart.
I'm sorry.
He was my best friend. I'm sorry.
Trip still wakes up at night screaming.
He watched his dad
die on live TV, and I have no words for him.
You let them destroy his name.
You made me believe...
Look, I couldn't protect Vince,
I couldn't protect him. I tried, but I couldn't.
But I can protect you and Trip and Susan and the kids.
From what?
From Chess!
The real Chess.
It's Peter Fleming, Dana.
Peter Fleming is Chess.
But you can never repeat that. You understand me?
Never repeat that. It will get you hurt.
It'll get Trip hurt.
Peter Fleming, he doesn't care about who he destroys.
It's like there's something inside of him that he can't control.
It's something... Some kind of sickness.
The man is sick, Dana!
Save it. Don't blow this thing up now.
I understand. I understand!
Max was right.
Dana put herself on Fleming's radar.
If you tell her,
how do you not tell your son?
That puts him in danger.
I'm not sure that I can take this.
I'm sure ARK's already tapping her phone.
The wireless.
Probably the whole apartment.
You're close, Vince.
You're closer than you've ever been to getting home.
Just give it a few more hours.
Are you okay?
Someone's watching me.
Who?
I don't know.
It's just...
Your hands are shaking.
Let me help you.
You can't.
No one can.
I don't know why you're doing this for me,
but thank you.
I'm not like Peter Fleming.
I'm not... I'm not evil.
Everything I do is for those three people downstairs.
Everything?
Yes.
Everything.
Listen, I know...
I know I'm no hero.
Trust me, I know that.
That night in the rail car, man, I had a plan.
I was gonna toss Vince my gun,
take out one of the guards.
Oh, I thought it about a million times,
how I could've saved him.
But when Fleming took off that mask and he handed it to me...
I froze.
Vince never froze.
If it had been me in that chair, Vince would have done the right thing.
He would have saved me.
Now, I wake up in hell, every day.
Trying to hold on to some kind of life.
I don't know anything. I don't know.
I'm looking for a black bird who wears a cape.
So where do I find him?
But I don't know anything.
I swear. I swear. Shh.
I don't.
I'm sorry.
It's fine.
It's just a lot to absorb.
Who are you?
Why do you care about us?
Have you lost someone?
You have.
That's why you're doing this.
Thank you.
You gave my son hope.
Why won't you look at me.
It's time.
Where did that come from?
How long has that been on?
I don't know. I turned it on.
I just wanted to talk to my friend.
Change of plans.
ARK's here. They're surrounding Trolley Park.
Rollo? Not good.
Okay, that signal's gonna lead them right to us.
We split up. You and Rollo take Susan and the kids.
We meet on the train. Go.
They're after you both. You'll need backup.
We don't have time. Okay. Rollo, are we clear?
Yeah, we're good. Go.
Take Dana to Trip, wait for my call.
Yeah. They'll be fine. I promise.
I love you.
Okay, wait for us to get clear,
Then, get Susan and the kids on the train. I'll meet you there.
Max.
Thank you.
Nothing wows them like a good vanishing act.
You ready for this?
Yeah, let's do it.
No entrance here.
There's got to be.
We trace that signal right here.
Move out. Cover every inch of this hell hole.
They are not getting out of here.
Let's go.
Up ahead! Ten o'clock!
He'll be here.
No. No, my kids. I gotta go.
Hey, ARK is after you, not them.
Don't draw attention. Wait till they're on the train.
We don't know what's out there.
Go. Now. Go.
You're gonna be all right.
Hello, boys.
Stay back. I've got this.
Scales, on your knees, now!
What the bloody hell? Where is Fleming?
When he hears about this...
Fan out. Find The Cape and Voyt.
Get him out. What's going on?
What's going on here?
You'll pay for this!
You gotta go, now!
What was that?
Rollo will stay with you.
What about Marty? Go.
I got you. Hang on.
I got you.
Just go.
Just get out of here.
I don't want any more blood on my hands.
Go. What are you waiting for?
I'm not leaving.
Please, man.
Please.
Just let me do this one thing right.
Just let me do this one thing...
Marty. Marty!
You didn't kill Vince Faraday.
You just saved him.
Vince!
Wait a minute.
You did good, bro. You did really good.
Take care of my kids, man.
Yeah, I will.
Will you do that for me?
I promise.
Marty.
Chief of Police Marty Voyt's death was not a hero's end.
He died fleeing laws he had sworn to uphold
at the hands of a well known Palm City gangster.
We will never know the reason why Marty betrayed our trust.
But ARK will learn from these events.
ARK will be stronger.
And despite it all, today Palm City is safer because of us.
The gangster Dominic Raoul, also known as Scales,
is behind bars at Owl Island Prison because of ARK police work.
It is a new day in Palm City.
Mr. Fleming, can you comment on the masked vigilante
called The Cape who attempted to stop...
The Cape is also an enemy of the law,
and he too will be brought to justice.
Are you concerned The Cape may pose a threat...
Ordinary citizens are coming forward
with Cape sightings. Can you explain that?
Thank you. Thank you, that's it.
Wait here.
What are you doing?
Searching for wired and wireless cameras and bugs. WiFi,
UHF, VHF.
This picks up frequencies from one megahertz to 6,500 megahertz.
Are you from Palm City?
No.
Army brat.
New Delhi, Singapore,
boarding schools.
Moved a lot.
And, um, The Cape.
How did you guys...
It's complicated.
I imagine.
You're a beautiful family.
Thank you.
You had no warning.
That's better.
That's better than seeing it coming.
Seeing it coming and not being able to change it.
I... I don't understand.
When you read a book, do you read the ending first?
I read the ending first.
Your husband loves you.
He did.
Good luck, Miss Faraday.
Vietnamese snake wine.
It was smuggled out of Vietnam during the war
by an old compatriot of mine,
Karma Daniels.
Karma.
It's said to imbue the drinker with immortality.
You believe that?
Karma did.
Do I wanna know where Karma is now?
Probably not.
Nobody lives forever, Vincent.
To Karma.
To Marty.
