00:00:01.236 --> 00:00:02.541
Previously on
Alaska Daily...

00:00:02.541 --> 00:00:04.152
Complaints have surfaced.

00:00:04.152 --> 00:00:06.197
- We need to walk back the story.
- You do that, Rushmi, I walk.

00:00:06.197 --> 00:00:07.851
Stanley. Why are you here?

00:00:07.851 --> 00:00:09.592
Her name is Gloria Nanmac.

00:00:09.592 --> 00:00:11.028
It's a story about how

00:00:11.028 --> 00:00:13.465
the Missing and Murdered
Indigenous Women crisis

00:00:13.465 --> 00:00:15.032
is being ignored.

00:00:15.032 --> 00:00:16.860
Roz, I want to put you
on a story with Eileen.

00:00:16.860 --> 00:00:18.862
- Why not just give
the whole story to me?
- It's my story.

00:00:18.862 --> 00:00:20.559
Do you know anything
about Alaska?

00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:21.778
Following the publication
of your stories,

00:00:21.778 --> 00:00:23.649
- Durkin was fired.
- So was Barnett.

00:00:23.649 --> 00:00:25.869
When you expose people,
do you worry about blowback?

00:00:25.869 --> 00:00:27.479
Hello,
Eileen. Did you get my gift?

00:00:27.479 --> 00:00:29.655
The next bullet you receive
won't be in a box.

00:00:32.658 --> 00:00:34.878
- Hey, Claire.
- Hey, Dennis.

00:00:34.878 --> 00:00:36.401
How's the blog?

00:00:36.401 --> 00:00:39.013
Governor, great to see so many
resources being employed

00:00:39.013 --> 00:00:40.057
to find Henley Scott.

00:00:40.057 --> 00:00:41.667
Can't put a price on life.

00:00:41.667 --> 00:00:43.756
To that point, an Alaska Native
woman's currently missing,

00:00:43.756 --> 00:00:45.715
and the amount of money
spent to find her

00:00:45.715 --> 00:00:47.586
is less than your sushi lunch.

00:00:47.586 --> 00:00:49.893
If it isn't my favorite
pilot poet.

00:00:49.893 --> 00:00:51.242
Any chance
you're free tonight?

00:00:51.242 --> 00:00:52.722
I gotta rain check.

00:00:52.722 --> 00:00:55.072
My, uh, colleagues--
I promised them a drink.

00:00:55.072 --> 00:00:57.205
- Good night, Eileen.
- Night, Jamie.

00:00:57.205 --> 00:00:58.510
Eileen.

00:01:08.869 --> 00:01:11.523
The truth is,
we're the ones being bullied

00:01:11.523 --> 00:01:13.090
by the media.

00:01:13.090 --> 00:01:15.092
That is what's happening
in our public discourse.

00:01:15.092 --> 00:01:17.225
Disagree with anything
they say,

00:01:17.225 --> 00:01:20.141
and you're labeled fascist,
racist, homophobic.

00:01:20.141 --> 00:01:21.882
- That's bullying.
- Last one inside.

00:01:21.882 --> 00:01:23.579
- Hey, guys,
wait up for me!
- They're using language

00:01:23.579 --> 00:01:25.450
- like a cudgel...
- Hurry up, Yuna!

00:01:25.450 --> 00:01:26.190
...to get us to submit
to their moral subjectivism.

00:01:26.190 --> 00:01:28.062
Trust me, I know.

00:01:28.062 --> 00:01:29.628
I used to work
at the snowflake factory--

00:01:57.221 --> 00:01:58.744
Good night, Jamie.

00:02:00.833 --> 00:02:02.574
Eileen.

00:02:02.574 --> 00:02:03.967
Who are you?

00:02:03.967 --> 00:02:05.403
You know who I am.

00:02:06.100 --> 00:02:08.058
Concerned Citizen.

00:02:14.021 --> 00:02:15.500
Don't do this.

00:02:17.024 --> 00:02:18.547
You left me no choice.

00:02:22.725 --> 00:02:24.857
Please, God,

00:02:24.857 --> 00:02:27.164
don't-- don't do this.

00:02:27.164 --> 00:02:28.949
Give me your phone.

00:02:33.954 --> 00:02:35.042
Get up.

00:02:39.002 --> 00:02:40.525
Get up!

00:02:43.833 --> 00:02:46.618
There are other people here.

00:02:46.618 --> 00:02:48.185
There's no one here, Eileen.

00:02:48.185 --> 00:02:49.230
It's just you and me.

00:02:50.753 --> 00:02:52.146
Move.

00:02:55.018 --> 00:02:57.542
Sit down.

00:02:57.542 --> 00:03:00.850
You know, we have a night editor
who comes in.

00:03:00.850 --> 00:03:02.721
No one
is getting inside this building.

00:03:02.721 --> 00:03:05.115
If they do, you're dead.

00:03:10.729 --> 00:03:12.470
I'm late.
That's my friends.

00:03:12.470 --> 00:03:13.950
They probably are wondering
where I am.

00:03:17.475 --> 00:03:18.389
Unlock it.

00:03:19.477 --> 00:03:20.522
Slowly.

00:03:32.055 --> 00:03:34.144
Whatcha need, Stanley?

00:03:34.144 --> 00:03:36.233
So many things.

00:03:36.233 --> 00:03:38.888
But I'll settle for
another round for the team.

00:03:38.888 --> 00:03:42.196
And a club soda for you?
You got it.

00:03:43.284 --> 00:03:45.764
I get that you don't
like the way I do my job.

00:03:45.764 --> 00:03:47.244
I'm an outsider.

00:03:49.638 --> 00:03:51.031
I'd like to apologize,
Mr.--

00:03:51.031 --> 00:03:52.249
Mm. No names.

00:03:52.249 --> 00:03:55.774
Okay. Concerned Citizen.

00:03:55.774 --> 00:03:58.777
What can I do
to make things right?

00:03:58.777 --> 00:04:01.824
I told you to go back
to New York.

00:04:01.824 --> 00:04:03.652
You're still here.

00:04:03.652 --> 00:04:06.133
I needed the job.

00:04:06.133 --> 00:04:08.004
No one would hire me.

00:04:08.004 --> 00:04:10.137
Why are you here?

00:04:10.137 --> 00:04:12.052
Because
you didn't listen to me.

00:04:12.052 --> 00:04:13.183
No one does.

00:04:22.888 --> 00:04:25.630
And she hits the Redeemer.
Triple 20.

00:04:25.630 --> 00:04:27.545
How are you so good at this?

00:04:27.545 --> 00:04:29.199
I practically lived here
before I had kids.

00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:30.983
Now, that Claire sounds fun.

00:04:30.983 --> 00:04:32.159
That Claire was.

00:04:32.159 --> 00:04:33.899
Ah! Dagnabbit!

00:04:33.899 --> 00:04:35.901
Language, Bob.

00:04:35.901 --> 00:04:37.686
You all right, Stanley?

00:04:37.686 --> 00:04:39.818
There's a gunman
in the newsroom.

00:04:39.818 --> 00:04:41.820
He's taken Eileen hostage.

00:04:41.820 --> 00:04:44.649
- What?
- He thinks
it's Concerned Citizen,

00:04:44.649 --> 00:04:45.955
the guy who's been
harassing her.

00:04:45.955 --> 00:04:47.130
Who's he?
Who are you talking to?

00:04:47.130 --> 00:04:49.480
Gabriel's hiding
in the Morgue.

00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:51.656
- Oh, my God.
- Concerned Citizen?

00:04:51.656 --> 00:04:54.181
The one who sent the bullet
to Eileen last month?

00:04:54.181 --> 00:04:56.008
We should have contacted
the police.

00:04:56.008 --> 00:04:58.010
- We should call them now.
- Won't that set him off?

00:04:58.010 --> 00:04:59.403
I mean, it could.

00:04:59.403 --> 00:05:00.752
We don't know
what this guy's capable of.

00:05:00.752 --> 00:05:03.015
We don't have a choice.
Call them.

00:05:03.015 --> 00:05:05.061
Agreed.
I'll make the call.

00:05:05.061 --> 00:05:05.931
Bob, call Pritchard.

00:05:05.931 --> 00:05:07.933
Will do.

00:05:11.023 --> 00:05:12.068
What's this for?

00:05:12.068 --> 00:05:13.765
Your confession.

00:05:13.765 --> 00:05:17.117
What am I confessing about?

00:05:17.117 --> 00:05:20.076
How you spread lies
and suppress the truth.

00:05:20.076 --> 00:05:22.513
How you faithfully serve
your corporate masters

00:05:22.513 --> 00:05:24.167
while they destroy
the backbone of our country.

00:05:31.218 --> 00:05:32.958
You read The Eagle?

00:05:32.958 --> 00:05:34.177
I do.

00:05:34.177 --> 00:05:36.223
Dennis Gibson,
he speaks the truth.

00:05:37.833 --> 00:05:39.922
He understands what's really
happening out there.

00:05:39.922 --> 00:05:42.664
He has an opinion
about what's happening,

00:05:42.664 --> 00:05:45.667
but from what I've read,
he doesn't deal in facts.

00:05:45.667 --> 00:05:47.538
Ah. You're one to talk.

00:05:47.538 --> 00:05:48.757
You're only in Anchorage
'cause you couldn't get

00:05:48.757 --> 00:05:51.716
your facts right
back in New York.

00:05:51.716 --> 00:05:53.675
And now you're out here
spreading the same liberal crap.

00:05:54.719 --> 00:05:56.156
I'm not political.

00:05:56.156 --> 00:05:58.897
I don't even vote.

00:05:58.897 --> 00:06:03.032
My... obligation is
to maintain objectivity--

00:06:03.032 --> 00:06:04.512
Your obligation?

00:06:04.512 --> 00:06:06.731
You abandoned your obligations
a long time ago, lady.

00:06:08.472 --> 00:06:10.387
See, I've done the reading.

00:06:10.387 --> 00:06:11.693
The purpose
of the fourth estate

00:06:11.693 --> 00:06:14.739
is to advocate
for the common man,

00:06:14.739 --> 00:06:16.611
and that sure as hell
does not describe you.

00:06:18.090 --> 00:06:21.398
Okay.

00:06:21.398 --> 00:06:24.053
So you want me to confess
about how I'm not doing my job.

00:06:24.053 --> 00:06:25.228
Is that it?

00:06:25.228 --> 00:06:26.055
Yeah, that's it.

00:06:29.014 --> 00:06:30.059
Write.

00:06:36.848 --> 00:06:39.111
Karla, could you
put a pot of coffee on?

00:06:39.111 --> 00:06:41.113
Yeah, sure can. It got
real quiet back there, though.

00:06:41.113 --> 00:06:42.419
Is everything all right?

00:06:42.419 --> 00:06:44.856
Uh, no. A situation
in the newsroom.

00:06:44.856 --> 00:06:46.118
Someone broke in,
appears to be armed.

00:06:46.118 --> 00:06:48.120
Are you serious?
Should we get out of here?

00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:50.906
Uh, not sure.

00:06:50.906 --> 00:06:52.777
Stanley's still on the phone
with the police,

00:06:52.777 --> 00:06:55.563
but you might want
to make this last call.

00:06:55.563 --> 00:06:57.956
Uh, oh, and maybe tell them
to use the back door.

00:07:01.003 --> 00:07:02.570
That was Captain Freeman.

00:07:02.570 --> 00:07:04.963
Freeman's on this?
Not exactly an ally.

00:07:04.963 --> 00:07:09.751
Maybe not, but he assured me
that he understands the threat

00:07:09.751 --> 00:07:12.710
and he's confident
that he can seal off the TDA

00:07:12.710 --> 00:07:14.103
without alerting the gunman.

00:07:14.103 --> 00:07:15.583
- Can we stay here?
- I am.

00:07:15.583 --> 00:07:16.932
Yeah, I'll talk to Karla.

00:07:16.932 --> 00:07:19.413
I know we're all concerned
and scared,

00:07:19.413 --> 00:07:22.764
but we need to put
all that aside and focus.

00:07:22.764 --> 00:07:25.027
The best way to help
Eileen and Gabriel

00:07:25.027 --> 00:07:27.464
is to get the police
some answers.

00:07:27.464 --> 00:07:30.293
Who is this guy and why the hell
did he come after Eileen?

00:07:32.861 --> 00:07:34.863
Okay, the place is all yours.
Back door's locked.

00:07:34.863 --> 00:07:36.865
Front door is open to the police
like you asked, okay?

00:07:36.865 --> 00:07:38.649
Thank you, Karla.

00:07:38.649 --> 00:07:39.998
All right,
I got our phone records,

00:07:39.998 --> 00:07:40.999
but until we get
the Concerned Citizen's name,

00:07:40.999 --> 00:07:42.305
there's nothing to cross check.

00:07:42.305 --> 00:07:43.393
There's a guy
who's been posting

00:07:43.393 --> 00:07:45.526
in our comments section recently.

00:07:45.526 --> 00:07:46.962
Oilman223.

00:07:46.962 --> 00:07:48.398
Listen to this.

00:07:48.398 --> 00:07:50.444
"Environmentalism is
the greatest thing to happen

00:07:50.444 --> 00:07:52.663
to increased government control
since 9/11."

00:07:52.663 --> 00:07:54.622
- That sounds like Dennis.
- It does.

00:07:54.622 --> 00:07:55.840
I'm on The Eagle blog
right now.

00:07:55.840 --> 00:07:57.842
Oilman223 basically did
a cut and paste.

00:07:57.842 --> 00:07:59.366
He's definitely a follower.

00:07:59.366 --> 00:08:00.671
Hey, I got the same handle
trolling Eileen's Twitter--

00:08:00.671 --> 00:08:02.760
@Oilman223.

00:08:02.760 --> 00:08:05.285
"@EileenFitzgerald's
shameful ambush of our governor

00:08:05.285 --> 00:08:06.677
will be her last."

00:08:06.677 --> 00:08:08.636
Did you check the profile
biography for a name?

00:08:08.636 --> 00:08:11.595
Yeah, it's blank. He's disabled
location services, too.

00:08:11.595 --> 00:08:13.031
This * was getting ready
for this.

00:08:13.031 --> 00:08:14.859
Let's crowdsource it.
Publish his handle.

00:08:14.859 --> 00:08:16.426
Someone has to know
his real identity.

00:08:16.426 --> 00:08:18.776
- We'd risk exposing the story.
- Yeah, about that.

00:08:18.776 --> 00:08:20.865
I hate to bring it up,
but are we reporting

00:08:20.865 --> 00:08:23.433
- this hostage situation or not?
- Fair question.

00:08:23.433 --> 00:08:25.000
Any other hostage crisis,
we'd be all over it.

00:08:25.000 --> 00:08:27.481
But if we go public,
there's no telling

00:08:27.481 --> 00:08:29.874
how Oilman223 will react.

00:08:29.874 --> 00:08:31.528
The police are on their way.

00:08:31.528 --> 00:08:34.618
It's only gonna be unnoticed
for so long.

00:08:34.618 --> 00:08:36.620
TV crews get wind of it,
it's gonna blow up.

00:08:36.620 --> 00:08:38.753
Who cares?
It's not about that.

00:08:38.753 --> 00:08:41.059
We'll deal with that
when it comes.

00:08:41.059 --> 00:08:42.713
Sure, we'll get scooped,

00:08:42.713 --> 00:08:45.673
but I want to give the cops
as much time as possible.

00:08:45.673 --> 00:08:48.458
Remember, we'll be the only ones
on the inside of this thing,

00:08:48.458 --> 00:08:50.721
so the second it breaks,
we should be posting

00:08:50.721 --> 00:08:53.550
a minute-by-minute account
on TDA's feed.

00:08:53.550 --> 00:08:56.553
Until then, no reporting.

00:09:03.778 --> 00:09:04.953
You done?

00:09:06.781 --> 00:09:07.956
Not yet.

00:09:07.956 --> 00:09:11.307
I understand
what you want me to write,

00:09:11.307 --> 00:09:15.267
but...
it's not what I believe.

00:09:15.267 --> 00:09:17.313
Yeah. That's the problem.

00:09:18.967 --> 00:09:20.185
You write whatever you want.

00:09:20.185 --> 00:09:22.710
You don't care who goes down
because of it.

00:09:22.710 --> 00:09:24.712
Can you give me an example?

00:09:24.712 --> 00:09:26.409
Your last article
on General Greene

00:09:26.409 --> 00:09:29.499
grounded an entire fleet
of F41s.

00:09:29.499 --> 00:09:32.807
The production line
at Armeon was shut down.

00:09:32.807 --> 00:09:35.287
A lot of people are gonna
lose their jobs.

00:09:35.287 --> 00:09:37.594
Tell that to the parents
of the dead pilot.

00:09:37.594 --> 00:09:38.552
That's not the point.

00:09:39.988 --> 00:09:42.512
It is the point.

00:09:42.512 --> 00:09:44.514
Printing the truth
has hard consequences,

00:09:44.514 --> 00:09:47.691
and we all struggle with that,
but you can't blame me for--

00:09:47.691 --> 00:09:49.476
Don't give me that "Don't shoot
the messenger" crap.

00:09:51.521 --> 00:09:53.784
Then don't shoot
the messenger.

00:09:53.784 --> 00:09:55.090
Finish the confession.

00:09:57.005 --> 00:09:59.311
And then what?

00:10:06.406 --> 00:10:09.800
Oh, come on.
Pick up, pick up.

00:10:09.800 --> 00:10:10.801
Talk to me.

00:10:10.801 --> 00:10:12.368
You okay?

00:10:12.368 --> 00:10:14.414
For now.

00:10:14.414 --> 00:10:15.893
And Eileen?

00:10:15.893 --> 00:10:17.547
It's pretty tense in there.

00:10:17.547 --> 00:10:19.419
He's forcing her
to write a confession.

00:10:19.419 --> 00:10:21.638
Is she going along with it?

00:10:21.638 --> 00:10:23.466
She is, but not quietly.

00:10:23.466 --> 00:10:27.078
I want to help,
but I don't know how.

00:10:28.384 --> 00:10:30.908
Stay calm.
We're talking to the police.

00:10:30.908 --> 00:10:33.911
Is there a way you can
get a message to Eileen?

00:10:33.911 --> 00:10:36.827
Without being seen?
I-I-I don't know.

00:10:36.827 --> 00:10:38.829
He took away her phone. Uh...

00:10:46.663 --> 00:10:47.751
Wait.

00:10:53.583 --> 00:10:54.889
She can see the Analytics Page.

00:11:30.968 --> 00:11:33.928
Okay, we have a way
to get information to Eileen.

00:11:33.928 --> 00:11:36.060
Where are we with Oilman223?

00:11:36.060 --> 00:11:38.323
He's created dozens of sock
puppet accounts on Twitter.

00:11:38.323 --> 00:11:40.412
- Fakes?
- People use it
to amplify their messaging,

00:11:40.412 --> 00:11:42.545
and he's having them like
and retweet his comments.

00:11:42.545 --> 00:11:44.678
- What a loser.
- None of the accounts
are verified,

00:11:44.678 --> 00:11:46.897
but I found a link
that's connected to a website.

00:11:46.897 --> 00:11:49.987
The domain name is registered
by an E.L. Barry.

00:11:49.987 --> 00:11:52.512
I'm logged into Nexis.
There's an Eric Lowell Barry.

00:11:52.512 --> 00:11:54.644
Address on Spenard.
Not sure if it's current.

00:11:54.644 --> 00:11:57.952
Um, a few unpaid
parking tickets and a DUI.

00:11:57.952 --> 00:11:59.431
But no history
of violent crime?

00:11:59.431 --> 00:12:00.563
Anybody get a photo
on this guy?

00:12:00.563 --> 00:12:01.390
Here.

00:12:05.046 --> 00:12:07.352
- What are you doing?
- Gabriel can see him.

00:12:10.921 --> 00:12:12.401
Stanley.

00:12:12.401 --> 00:12:14.272
Aaron, back here.

00:12:15.404 --> 00:12:16.797
Got him.

00:12:16.797 --> 00:12:18.538
I'll let Anchorage PD know
we have a name.

00:12:18.538 --> 00:12:20.452
- Okay.
- We have a name?

00:12:20.452 --> 00:12:23.891
We do.
Eric Lowell Barry.

00:12:23.891 --> 00:12:25.457
What do we know about him?

00:12:25.457 --> 00:12:27.851
He's disgruntled,
to say the least.

00:12:27.851 --> 00:12:29.592
How's Eileen doing?

00:12:29.592 --> 00:12:31.159
Gabriel says
she seems all right.

00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:34.597
We have a way to get her
messages on the Analytics Page.

00:12:34.597 --> 00:12:35.729
Let's go talk
to Captain Freeman. He's here.

00:12:35.729 --> 00:12:37.078
Okay.

00:12:44.476 --> 00:12:45.739
Bravo Team
to Ground Element.

00:12:46.740 --> 00:12:48.742
I have eyes on the suspect.

00:12:48.742 --> 00:12:50.004
Copy, Bravo Team.

00:12:50.004 --> 00:12:51.483
Sit tight.

00:12:55.966 --> 00:12:58.055
Mr. Cornik, Mr. Pritchard.

00:12:58.055 --> 00:12:59.535
Captain. How can we help?

00:12:59.535 --> 00:13:00.884
You've been
very helpful so far.

00:13:00.884 --> 00:13:02.582
This is Laura Cole,
senior member

00:13:02.582 --> 00:13:04.322
of our
Crisis Negotiation Team.

00:13:04.322 --> 00:13:06.498
I understand we have a name,
Eric Barry,

00:13:06.498 --> 00:13:07.848
and can communicate
with Eileen.

00:13:07.848 --> 00:13:09.284
- Anything else?
- Not yet.

00:13:09.284 --> 00:13:10.851
We're still compiling info
on Eric.

00:13:10.851 --> 00:13:13.636
I need Cole to establish contact
as soon as possible.

00:13:13.636 --> 00:13:15.290
What's the best office line
for us to call?

00:13:15.290 --> 00:13:17.292
Is that safe? Calling?

00:13:17.292 --> 00:13:18.336
The best way to protect
your colleagues

00:13:18.336 --> 00:13:19.990
is to get this guy talking.

00:13:19.990 --> 00:13:22.471
But any other info your team
uncovers would be very helpful.

00:13:22.471 --> 00:13:23.820
Okay, so let's keep
sharing information.

00:13:23.820 --> 00:13:25.692
In the meantime,
I'm gonna have our snipers

00:13:25.692 --> 00:13:27.868
monitoring the newsroom.

00:13:27.868 --> 00:13:32.786
"I confess that I,
Eileen Fitzgerald,

00:13:32.786 --> 00:13:35.658
am a member
of the liberal media elite.

00:13:35.658 --> 00:13:37.051
Not only is
my reporting biased,

00:13:37.051 --> 00:13:39.923
it represents a concerted effort
to suppress the truth

00:13:39.923 --> 00:13:42.926
and spread lies,
lies which only serve

00:13:42.926 --> 00:13:45.799
the global interests
of multi-national corporations

00:13:45.799 --> 00:13:48.540
whose ultimate aim is
to control our government

00:13:48.540 --> 00:13:50.412
and restrict
our constitutional freedoms..."

00:13:54.024 --> 00:13:55.025
That work?

00:13:56.766 --> 00:13:58.420
Yeah.

00:13:58.420 --> 00:13:59.551
Now type it up and publish it.

00:14:01.815 --> 00:14:03.686
- I can't do that.
- The hell you can't.

00:14:03.686 --> 00:14:05.819
No, I-I literally mean
I can't.

00:14:05.819 --> 00:14:07.342
I don't know how to publish.

00:14:07.342 --> 00:14:09.344
My editor has to send me
a live link.

00:14:09.344 --> 00:14:10.824
Then get him
to send you a link.

00:14:10.824 --> 00:14:13.565
It won't work.
He has to read it, proof it.

00:14:13.565 --> 00:14:15.524
Uh, I mean,
editors are like dogs.

00:14:15.524 --> 00:14:16.568
They have to piss on everything.

00:14:16.568 --> 00:14:18.701
This isn't some damn joke.

00:14:18.701 --> 00:14:21.356
I'm not joking.
This confession isn't me.

00:14:21.356 --> 00:14:22.792
He'll see right through it.

00:14:22.792 --> 00:14:23.967
Anyone who reads it
will see right through it.

00:14:27.797 --> 00:14:29.364
That might be my editor.
Let me talk to him--

00:14:31.888 --> 00:14:33.847
Report.
What happened?

00:14:33.847 --> 00:14:36.937
Report.

00:14:41.028 --> 00:14:43.900
What happened?
Did the suspect fire?

00:14:43.900 --> 00:14:45.249
Confirmed.
A shot was fired.

00:14:45.249 --> 00:14:47.208
Stand by for confirmation.

00:14:47.208 --> 00:14:50.080
Shot was wide.
Hostage is unharmed.

00:14:55.912 --> 00:14:58.436
I wasn't gonna answer it.

00:14:58.436 --> 00:15:00.177
I'm just making sure.

00:15:03.050 --> 00:15:04.747
I have to go to the bathroom.

00:15:04.747 --> 00:15:06.444
This better not be
some kind of trick.

00:15:06.444 --> 00:15:07.881
It isn't.

00:15:07.881 --> 00:15:09.360
I've been here for hours. Please.

00:15:12.189 --> 00:15:13.538
What was that?
Everything okay?

00:15:13.538 --> 00:15:17.238
He fired his weapon,
but Eileen's okay.

00:15:17.238 --> 00:15:19.762
Claire, you should go home,
deal with your family.

00:15:19.762 --> 00:15:21.198
Jeff's got it handled.

00:15:21.198 --> 00:15:22.939
I'm not leaving, not while
they're still in there.

00:15:22.939 --> 00:15:25.072
- None of us are.
- Thanks, Karla.

00:15:25.072 --> 00:15:26.334
Okay, where are we?

00:15:26.334 --> 00:15:28.902
Still compiling Eric's posts
and comments.

00:15:28.902 --> 00:15:32.079
Any idea why he targeted Eileen?

00:15:32.079 --> 00:15:33.907
He definitely hates
mainstream media,

00:15:33.907 --> 00:15:35.169
but when it comes
to his trolling,

00:15:35.169 --> 00:15:36.561
he doesn't call out
any specific offense.

00:15:36.561 --> 00:15:38.346
Yeah, he parrots
Dennis Gibson mostly.

00:15:38.346 --> 00:15:39.956
A majority of his work
is on The Eagle.

00:15:39.956 --> 00:15:40.957
They were trading messages
right before

00:15:40.957 --> 00:15:43.264
Eric walked into the newsroom.

00:15:43.264 --> 00:15:45.962
Dennis compared Eileen
to a "spreading cancerous sore

00:15:45.962 --> 00:15:48.791
- that requires excising."
- What a *.

00:15:48.791 --> 00:15:50.358
He was my first editor
at the paper.

00:15:50.358 --> 00:15:51.576
I'm gonna wake his * up.

00:15:51.576 --> 00:15:53.013
- Cool?
- Yeah. Go.

00:15:55.015 --> 00:15:58.409
Hey, guys.
This is Detective Kowalczyk.

00:15:58.409 --> 00:16:00.411
- Hello.
- Hey, Walz.

00:16:00.411 --> 00:16:01.804
Austin, good to see you.

00:16:01.804 --> 00:16:03.066
Sorry it's under
these circumstances.

00:16:03.066 --> 00:16:05.112
Us, too, Detective.
How can we help?

00:16:05.112 --> 00:16:08.768
Yeah, I have a last known
address for Eric Barry.

00:16:08.768 --> 00:16:10.813
- Northwood Drive?
- Exactly.

00:16:10.813 --> 00:16:12.772
He's been fighting eviction
for months.

00:16:12.772 --> 00:16:14.425
Guess when the bank finally
foreclosed on him?

00:16:14.425 --> 00:16:15.905
Three days ago.

00:16:15.905 --> 00:16:18.299
Stanley, maybe I head
over there, too?

00:16:18.299 --> 00:16:19.213
Canvass the neighbors,
see what they know?

00:16:19.213 --> 00:16:20.605
Yeah. Go.

00:16:20.605 --> 00:16:22.912
Well, if your car's out front,
it's, uh, trapped

00:16:22.912 --> 00:16:25.393
by the police line.

00:16:25.393 --> 00:16:27.177
Uh, can you give me a lift?

00:16:27.177 --> 00:16:30.224
Uh, officially, no, but if we
call it a "ride-along,"

00:16:30.224 --> 00:16:32.400
I can do,
but you have to ask me first.

00:16:34.097 --> 00:16:36.273
Can I do a ride-along with you,
Walz?

00:16:36.273 --> 00:16:39.320
If you sign a waiver, yes.
Let's go.

00:16:56.250 --> 00:16:57.904
You going?

00:16:58.948 --> 00:17:01.298
I can't.

00:17:01.298 --> 00:17:02.952
I've never peed at gunpoint.

00:17:07.391 --> 00:17:10.873
You worked on oil rigs?
Your boots.

00:17:10.873 --> 00:17:14.834
I covered the Deepwater Horizon
in 2010.

00:17:14.834 --> 00:17:17.880
Yeah, you covered it, huh?

00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:19.839
You ever do any real work,
or just cover it?

00:17:21.101 --> 00:17:24.234
I think what I do is real.

00:17:24.234 --> 00:17:27.411
But if you mean skilled labor,
not so much.

00:17:27.411 --> 00:17:29.065
My father did.

00:17:29.065 --> 00:17:34.114
He was a... steel worker
in Youngstown, Ohio.

00:17:34.114 --> 00:17:35.550
Just like his father.

00:17:37.552 --> 00:17:38.727
He was proud of that.

00:17:40.424 --> 00:17:43.210
I was, too.

00:17:43.210 --> 00:17:45.821
That supposed to make me
like you or something?

00:17:45.821 --> 00:17:49.346
You keep calling me elite.

00:17:49.346 --> 00:17:53.829
I didn't grow up with money
or fancy schools.

00:17:53.829 --> 00:17:56.397
My mom was a teacher.

00:17:56.397 --> 00:17:59.443
We didn't have a lot,
but it was a good life.

00:17:59.443 --> 00:18:02.403
Then that all went sideways in
the '80s when the mills closed.

00:18:04.796 --> 00:18:06.494
My dad was never the same.

00:18:06.494 --> 00:18:09.758
It broke him.

00:18:09.758 --> 00:18:11.238
It broke our whole family.

00:18:17.026 --> 00:18:20.116
We both know
how this goes down.

00:18:20.116 --> 00:18:22.336
You're about to be
national news.

00:18:22.336 --> 00:18:25.252
Use it. Use me.

00:18:25.252 --> 00:18:27.297
Let me tell your story.

00:18:27.297 --> 00:18:29.430
So you can twist it into
some angry-white-male crap

00:18:29.430 --> 00:18:31.084
for your woke mob?

00:18:31.084 --> 00:18:32.824
I was canceled by that mob.

00:18:32.824 --> 00:18:35.218
* them. I'll be fair.

00:18:35.218 --> 00:18:36.959
And anyway,
you'll be able to read it

00:18:36.959 --> 00:18:39.092
before I send it
to my editor to publish.

00:18:41.181 --> 00:18:43.966
My words?

00:18:43.966 --> 00:18:46.490
Gabriel says Eileen
has Eric talking now,

00:18:46.490 --> 00:18:48.188
seems less agitated.

00:18:48.188 --> 00:18:50.059
That can change
in a split second.

00:18:50.059 --> 00:18:51.974
And no luck reaching him
on the phone?

00:18:51.974 --> 00:18:53.976
We tried a couple
of the other landlines.

00:18:53.976 --> 00:18:55.412
He didn't shoot them,
but he's not picking up.

00:18:55.412 --> 00:18:57.284
So, what's the plan?

00:18:57.284 --> 00:18:59.155
I have three
sniper teams in position.

00:18:59.155 --> 00:19:02.158
Only one has a high
probability of a kill shot.

00:19:02.158 --> 00:19:04.421
I want to give him the green
light, but there's one problem.

00:19:04.421 --> 00:19:07.468
- What's that?
- Your reporter's in the way.

00:19:07.468 --> 00:19:10.166
You want us to tell her to move
so you can shoot the guy?

00:19:10.166 --> 00:19:11.646
Might be the quickest,
safest way to end this thing.

00:19:13.256 --> 00:19:14.431
I say do it.

00:19:17.826 --> 00:19:22.178
I worked on rigs all my life,
onshore and off.

00:19:22.178 --> 00:19:23.527
Started on the North Slope

00:19:23.527 --> 00:19:25.312
straight out of high school
as a worm.

00:19:25.312 --> 00:19:27.270
Worked my way up.

00:19:27.270 --> 00:19:30.056
Shell came to town in, uh, 2012

00:19:30.056 --> 00:19:33.059
with a $6 billion spend.

00:19:33.059 --> 00:19:35.887
Those were great years.

00:19:35.887 --> 00:19:38.194
Coulda kept it going,
but then ANWR

00:19:38.194 --> 00:19:40.022
and all that crap
messed it up.

00:19:40.022 --> 00:19:41.893
Who's ANWR?

00:19:41.893 --> 00:19:43.852
Arctic National
Wildlife Refuge.

00:19:43.852 --> 00:19:46.028
See, the Feds, they control
this huge amount of land,

00:19:46.028 --> 00:19:48.161
but they're controlled
by Greenpeace

00:19:48.161 --> 00:19:51.120
and all these other
environmental freaks.

00:19:51.120 --> 00:19:52.469
Protested non-stop.

00:19:52.469 --> 00:19:54.297
They delayed our ice-breakers.

00:19:54.297 --> 00:19:56.386
They sabotaged the Kulluk.

00:19:56.386 --> 00:19:57.866
- The drilling rig?
- Yeah.

00:19:57.866 --> 00:20:00.042
Well, I thought that thing
had problems for years--

00:20:00.042 --> 00:20:02.044
multiple engine failures,
that kinda thing.

00:20:02.044 --> 00:20:04.568
Yeah, if you believe
the mainstream press.

00:20:04.568 --> 00:20:07.397
So, Shell pulled out?

00:20:07.397 --> 00:20:10.922
In 2015, then Chevron,
then Imperial.

00:20:10.922 --> 00:20:14.361
Governmental regulations
and this mass hysteria

00:20:14.361 --> 00:20:18.234
over this global warming BS
has killed Alaska oil.

00:20:18.234 --> 00:20:21.237
You really think
global warming is BS?

00:20:21.237 --> 00:20:23.065
Well, I think
it's a zero sum game.

00:20:23.065 --> 00:20:25.546
Either we burn fossil fuels,

00:20:25.546 --> 00:20:27.852
or-- or we mine
for "green" batteries.

00:20:27.852 --> 00:20:29.898
It's all the same result.

00:20:29.898 --> 00:20:32.335
So why not just let us work?

00:20:32.335 --> 00:20:36.165
Meanwhile, I-I haven't worked
for seven years.

00:20:36.165 --> 00:20:37.297
Seven.

00:20:39.560 --> 00:20:41.866
And, yeah, it breaks you.

00:20:51.572 --> 00:20:53.530
What are you looking at?

00:20:53.530 --> 00:20:55.315
Just wondering if
it's light outside yet.

00:21:08.284 --> 00:21:11.200
Damn it. She said no.
She's not moving.

00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:14.116
God.
Why is she protecting this guy?

00:21:14.116 --> 00:21:15.987
Why does Eileen do anything?

00:21:15.987 --> 00:21:17.293
If she's talking to Barry,

00:21:17.293 --> 00:21:19.295
he may have become
more human to her.

00:21:19.295 --> 00:21:22.124
She knows if she plays
along with us, he's dead.

00:21:22.124 --> 00:21:24.213
She doesn't want to be
responsible for his death.

00:21:24.213 --> 00:21:25.997
Let's hope he feels
the same way.

00:21:25.997 --> 00:21:27.260
I wouldn't count on it.

00:21:27.260 --> 00:21:30.176
In my experience,
as the pressure mounts,

00:21:30.176 --> 00:21:32.047
there's a good chance
he could act on his plan.

00:21:32.047 --> 00:21:33.309
Which is to kill Eileen.

00:21:33.309 --> 00:21:35.616
Based on what we know, yes.

00:21:49.934 --> 00:21:52.763
- Oh. Did I wake you?
- The hell are you doing here?

00:21:52.763 --> 00:21:54.722
One of your devoted followers
has taken

00:21:54.722 --> 00:21:58.073
Eileen Fitzgerald hostage
in the newsroom at gunpoint.

00:21:58.073 --> 00:21:59.727
Suggesting it's my fault?

00:21:59.727 --> 00:22:01.903
I'm suggesting you need to talk
some sense into him.

00:22:06.560 --> 00:22:09.171
So, now I'm the nut whisperer.

00:22:09.171 --> 00:22:12.174
Nuts you embolden.

00:22:12.174 --> 00:22:13.784
Eric Barry.

00:22:13.784 --> 00:22:18.137
You probably know him better
as Oilman223.

00:22:18.137 --> 00:22:20.051
I've had a few exchanges
with him.

00:22:20.051 --> 00:22:22.967
I don't recall telling him
to take a reporter hostage.

00:22:22.967 --> 00:22:25.100
Last night,
an hour before he did,

00:22:25.100 --> 00:22:28.582
you two corresponded
on the Eagle message board.

00:22:28.582 --> 00:22:29.931
He asked you what a man's
supposed to do

00:22:29.931 --> 00:22:32.020
while people like
Eileen Fitzgerald

00:22:32.020 --> 00:22:34.240
"twist facts to turn
the great state of Alaska

00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:36.807
into another woke mess
like California."

00:22:36.807 --> 00:22:38.244
- It's a good question.
- Mm-hmm.

00:22:38.244 --> 00:22:39.897
And what did you say?

00:22:39.897 --> 00:22:42.857
I say a lot of things
to my devoted readers. I--

00:22:42.857 --> 00:22:45.599
"Take action, Oilman223.

00:22:45.599 --> 00:22:47.949
Reporters like Eileen Fitzgerald

00:22:47.949 --> 00:22:51.257
are a spreading cancerous sore
that requires excising."

00:22:51.257 --> 00:22:53.041
It goes without saying,
I'm speaking metaphorically.

00:22:53.041 --> 00:22:56.523
When I talk about taking action,
I mean political action.

00:22:56.523 --> 00:22:59.265
I don't think Eric got
the nuance of that.

00:22:59.265 --> 00:23:01.789
- You need to call him.
- I'm not getting involved.

00:23:01.789 --> 00:23:03.617
You are involved.

00:23:03.617 --> 00:23:04.661
Do you want him to kill her?

00:23:04.661 --> 00:23:06.576
You can't put this on me, Roz.

00:23:06.576 --> 00:23:08.839
I didn't make him sad and angry
and frustrated.

00:23:08.839 --> 00:23:10.232
All I did was let him know
he was right

00:23:10.232 --> 00:23:13.061
to feel those things,
which he deserved to hear.

00:23:13.061 --> 00:23:14.671
I can write this story
one of two ways.

00:23:14.671 --> 00:23:18.022
Either you're a villain who
instigated a hostage situation

00:23:18.022 --> 00:23:21.069
or a hero who helped save
a fellow journalist.

00:23:21.069 --> 00:23:22.723
What's it gonna be?

00:24:01.544 --> 00:24:03.242
- Good morning. Mr. Torgeson?
- Yeah.

00:24:03.242 --> 00:24:04.895
Austin Teague, Daily Alaskan.

00:24:04.895 --> 00:24:06.070
I wanted to ask you a few
questions about your neighbor,

00:24:06.070 --> 00:24:07.115
Eric Barry.

00:24:07.115 --> 00:24:08.682
Why? Something happen?

00:24:08.682 --> 00:24:10.249
Well, I can't give
any specifics,

00:24:10.249 --> 00:24:11.815
but he got himself into
some trouble with the police.

00:24:11.815 --> 00:24:13.556
I'm just trying to get
some background on him.

00:24:13.556 --> 00:24:14.688
Guess I'm not surprised.

00:24:14.688 --> 00:24:16.080
Yeah? Why's that?

00:24:16.080 --> 00:24:18.169
We used to have a beer
every once in a while.

00:24:18.169 --> 00:24:20.215
He took some hits in his life
and got real angry.

00:24:20.215 --> 00:24:21.608
And paranoid.

00:24:21.608 --> 00:24:23.174
- Paranoid?
- Yeah.

00:24:23.174 --> 00:24:24.741
Fenced in his yard.

00:24:24.741 --> 00:24:26.308
Even started *y-trapping
the property.

00:24:26.308 --> 00:24:28.223
He almost killed my dog.

00:24:28.223 --> 00:24:30.660
Walz! Walz, hold up!

00:24:37.276 --> 00:24:38.320
Walz?

00:24:51.551 --> 00:24:52.943
Walz?

00:24:52.943 --> 00:24:55.032
Cool. Okay.

00:24:58.079 --> 00:24:59.733
Look. It's nice, huh?

00:25:14.138 --> 00:25:15.923
I get that
it's been hard, but oil jobs

00:25:15.923 --> 00:25:18.055
are coming back, right?

00:25:18.055 --> 00:25:19.622
Not for people like me.

00:25:19.622 --> 00:25:22.625
Which means that even if things
are equal résumé wise,

00:25:22.625 --> 00:25:25.324
and mostly they're not,
I'm not getting hired.

00:25:26.977 --> 00:25:29.110
You think that's fair?
Hmm?

00:25:29.110 --> 00:25:31.242
Or even legal?

00:25:31.242 --> 00:25:33.201
Maybe not the way
you describe it.

00:25:33.201 --> 00:25:34.333
You sound like my ex-wife.

00:25:35.638 --> 00:25:36.422
What happened?

00:25:38.206 --> 00:25:40.513
She met someone
with a sunnier outlook.

00:25:40.513 --> 00:25:42.906
I'm sorry.

00:25:42.906 --> 00:25:44.168
Kids?

00:25:44.168 --> 00:25:45.213
Daughter.

00:25:45.213 --> 00:25:46.475
Where is she now?

00:25:48.651 --> 00:25:49.478
I don't want to talk about her.

00:25:51.654 --> 00:25:53.134
You leave her out of this.

00:25:53.134 --> 00:25:54.265
You hear me?

00:25:55.354 --> 00:25:57.007
I hear you.

00:26:00.576 --> 00:26:02.056
I clear first,
then you come in.

00:26:02.056 --> 00:26:04.885
Yeah.

00:26:18.115 --> 00:26:19.029
We're good.

00:26:26.036 --> 00:26:27.734
Guess he didn't pay
his electric bill, either.

00:26:37.178 --> 00:26:38.266
Hey, Walz.

00:26:38.266 --> 00:26:39.833
Yeah?

00:26:49.625 --> 00:26:51.975
Daughter.

00:26:51.975 --> 00:26:53.977
You know, let me see
if I can find her socials.

00:26:58.155 --> 00:27:01.463
Daisy Barry.

00:27:01.463 --> 00:27:02.333
All right, got her.

00:27:03.813 --> 00:27:05.728
She's pretty active
on Instagram.

00:27:08.688 --> 00:27:10.167
Her last post was from rehab.

00:27:11.604 --> 00:27:13.040
You should read.

00:27:23.616 --> 00:27:26.183
This is a goodbye letter.

00:27:26.183 --> 00:27:28.838
Mr. Barry doesn't expect
to come out of this alive.

00:27:31.145 --> 00:27:33.669
People have started posting
about the police presence.

00:27:33.669 --> 00:27:34.627
We knew this would happen.

00:27:36.106 --> 00:27:37.847
That was Austin.

00:27:37.847 --> 00:27:39.719
Eric has a daughter,
college age.

00:27:39.719 --> 00:27:41.198
He left her
a goodbye letter.

00:27:41.198 --> 00:27:43.592
- Where is she?
- In a treatment center
in Wasilla.

00:27:43.592 --> 00:27:45.507
We should reach out.
She might be able to help.

00:27:45.507 --> 00:27:47.248
We should. Find her. Now.

00:27:47.248 --> 00:27:50.207
I can drive. No, I can't.
My car's in the lot.

00:27:50.207 --> 00:27:52.688
Here. Take my Range Rover.
It's in the back alley.

00:27:52.688 --> 00:27:54.081
Range Rover?

00:27:54.081 --> 00:27:56.823
Never drove a car
that cost more than my house.

00:27:58.215 --> 00:27:59.173
Do you know who first
sounded the alarm

00:27:59.173 --> 00:28:00.609
on the greenhouse effect?

00:28:00.609 --> 00:28:02.742
I don't know.
Some Harvard jack*?

00:28:03.743 --> 00:28:04.526
No.

00:28:05.962 --> 00:28:07.877
It was Exxon.

00:28:07.877 --> 00:28:10.489
1977. They funded a study.

00:28:10.489 --> 00:28:13.579
Their own scientists discovered
that CO2 from carbon emissions

00:28:13.579 --> 00:28:15.798
was catastrophic to the Earth.

00:28:15.798 --> 00:28:17.539
They recommended that
Exxon lead the charge

00:28:17.539 --> 00:28:19.149
in alternative fuel sources.

00:28:19.149 --> 00:28:20.890
But they didn't.

00:28:20.890 --> 00:28:22.805
No. They buried it.

00:28:22.805 --> 00:28:25.547
It didn't resurface
until reporters dug it up.

00:28:25.547 --> 00:28:28.071
Finding the truth is like...

00:28:28.071 --> 00:28:30.073
climbing out of a well.

00:28:30.073 --> 00:28:33.729
You have to pile fact
on top of fact.

00:28:33.729 --> 00:28:35.949
When you're struggling
just to keep the lights on

00:28:35.949 --> 00:28:37.864
or put food on the table,

00:28:37.864 --> 00:28:40.170
facts don't matter much.

00:28:40.170 --> 00:28:44.131
Facts matter because the anger
is fueled by misinformation,

00:28:44.131 --> 00:28:48.265
and that comes from
so-called "trusted sources,"

00:28:48.265 --> 00:28:50.311
like your friend Dennis.

00:28:50.311 --> 00:28:53.096
Yeah, well, Dennis describes
the world I actually live in.

00:28:53.096 --> 00:28:54.837
He does.

00:28:54.837 --> 00:28:57.057
He understands that people
are struggling.

00:28:57.057 --> 00:29:00.626
They feel abandoned,
pushed to the back of the line.

00:29:00.626 --> 00:29:05.935
But he also exploits that pain
until anger metastasizes

00:29:05.935 --> 00:29:08.982
into an idea--
someone needs to pay.

00:29:10.200 --> 00:29:12.986
And then you pick up a gun.

00:29:12.986 --> 00:29:15.728
Not him. You.

00:29:22.996 --> 00:29:24.650
Hello?

00:29:24.650 --> 00:29:26.521
Good morning, Mr. Barry.

00:29:26.521 --> 00:29:28.044
My name is Laura Cole.

00:29:28.044 --> 00:29:30.786
I'm with the APD's
Crisis Negotiation Team.

00:29:30.786 --> 00:29:32.701
We have units
outside the building,

00:29:32.701 --> 00:29:35.835
but I want to assure you
nobody is coming in.

00:29:35.835 --> 00:29:39.229
- I just want to talk.
- Okay. Talk.

00:29:39.229 --> 00:29:42.711
First, can you tell me
how Eileen Fitzgerald is?

00:29:42.711 --> 00:29:45.584
She's fine.
For the moment.

00:29:52.591 --> 00:29:54.897
"Deranged Anchorage Man Takes
Journalist Hostage at TDA."

00:29:57.030 --> 00:29:58.858
So now I'm deranged, huh?

00:30:02.557 --> 00:30:05.081
Why do you keep looking
at that?

00:30:05.081 --> 00:30:06.256
Just waiting for you
to finish reading.

00:30:06.256 --> 00:30:08.171
Stop talking.

00:30:12.175 --> 00:30:15.091
All right. Where are
these messages coming from?

00:30:18.051 --> 00:30:19.226
Are these coming from inside?

00:30:20.619 --> 00:30:22.142
They could be coming
from anyone with a computer.

00:30:22.142 --> 00:30:23.752
Stop lying to me!

00:30:25.624 --> 00:30:28.148
Tell me where these messages
are coming from.

00:30:32.761 --> 00:30:34.023
Come here.

00:30:41.117 --> 00:30:42.684
He knows.
He's coming for me.

00:30:44.991 --> 00:30:47.950
Gabriel, he's going to find you.

00:30:47.950 --> 00:30:50.213
Try to stay calm
and do what he says.

00:30:50.213 --> 00:30:52.085
We're doing everything we can.

00:30:52.085 --> 00:30:53.739
Get Roz on the phone.

00:30:53.739 --> 00:30:55.828
Tell her we need Dennis
to call Eric now.

00:30:57.046 --> 00:30:58.961
Get over here.

00:30:58.961 --> 00:31:00.920
- Come here! Get over here!
- Hey, it's okay.

00:31:00.920 --> 00:31:02.922
- Shut up. Come on.
- Stop!

00:31:02.922 --> 00:31:03.836
- Come with me.
- Please,
please, please.

00:31:12.627 --> 00:31:14.542
"Confirm at 9:17 p.m.

by a disgruntled oil worker."

00:31:17.893 --> 00:31:19.939
- Okay, next tweet.
- Go.

"#Breaking-- Moments ago,

00:31:28.208 --> 00:31:29.731
In the corner! Stay down!

00:31:29.731 --> 00:31:31.211
Let me explain.

00:31:31.211 --> 00:31:32.255
Shut up!

00:31:32.255 --> 00:31:34.170
Just sit there.

00:31:42.744 --> 00:31:45.225
You tell your guys to stay back
right now.

00:31:45.225 --> 00:31:46.661
Huh? You hear me?

00:31:46.661 --> 00:31:48.750
Oilman223, hey.

00:31:48.750 --> 00:31:49.882
Dennis Gibson here.

00:31:52.319 --> 00:31:54.713
- What?
- That's right.

00:31:54.713 --> 00:31:57.280
Quite a circus down
at The Daily Alaskan.

00:31:57.280 --> 00:31:58.760
Just curious what your--
what your take is.

00:32:00.327 --> 00:32:01.328
How'd you get my number?

00:32:04.331 --> 00:32:06.246
You listed it
when you subscribed.

00:32:07.638 --> 00:32:10.424
Yeah, well...

00:32:10.424 --> 00:32:11.425
I haven't really
been following the news.

00:32:12.861 --> 00:32:16.647
Yeah, it's all over Twitter.
Just... what's going on?

00:32:16.647 --> 00:32:18.649
I'm just-- I'm just doing
my part. That's all, Dennis.

00:32:18.649 --> 00:32:19.912
Okay, well,
I just wanted to make sure

00:32:19.912 --> 00:32:21.740
that you and everyone else
was safe

00:32:21.740 --> 00:32:23.480
and handling the situation
in the right way.

00:32:23.480 --> 00:32:24.307
It's handled.

00:32:25.961 --> 00:32:28.659
E-Eric, listen, man,

00:32:28.659 --> 00:32:31.575
I use language sometimes
to fire people up.

00:32:31.575 --> 00:32:33.882
- But I-I never meant--
- You never meant what?

00:32:33.882 --> 00:32:34.753
A word of it?

00:32:38.234 --> 00:32:39.670
They got to you,
didn't they?

00:32:39.670 --> 00:32:41.281
What? No.
No one got to me.

00:32:41.281 --> 00:32:42.804
They got to you.

00:32:42.804 --> 00:32:45.198
No one-- Eric.

00:32:47.722 --> 00:32:48.941
He's gone.

00:32:48.941 --> 00:32:51.813
Wait, Roz, you saw me.
Hey, I tried.

00:32:51.813 --> 00:32:53.293
You--
You can't put this on me.

00:32:53.293 --> 00:32:54.555
I'm not the criminal here.

00:32:54.555 --> 00:32:55.991
You sure about that?

00:32:57.688 --> 00:32:59.299
You think
that was clever, huh?

00:32:59.299 --> 00:33:00.517
Having Gibson call me?

00:33:00.517 --> 00:33:03.129
Mr. Barry,
I don't know any Gibson.

00:33:03.129 --> 00:33:05.305
If someone else called you,
that didn't go through us.

00:33:05.305 --> 00:33:07.263
Mm-hmm. Yeah, yeah,
you wanna play me?

00:33:07.263 --> 00:33:09.396
Go ahead.
See what happens.

00:33:09.396 --> 00:33:11.746
That is not our intention,
Mr. Barry.

00:33:11.746 --> 00:33:13.443
I promised you we would keep
our distance.

00:33:13.443 --> 00:33:15.750
We have and will continue to,

00:33:15.750 --> 00:33:17.752
but I need you to negotiate
with me in good faith.

00:33:17.752 --> 00:33:19.841
Then stop playing games.

00:33:19.841 --> 00:33:22.539
No games.
I promise.

00:33:22.539 --> 00:33:25.760
We know you are holding
two people inside now.

00:33:25.760 --> 00:33:26.979
Is anyone hurt?

00:33:30.591 --> 00:33:32.549
No. No one's hurt.

00:33:32.549 --> 00:33:34.377
Good.

00:33:34.377 --> 00:33:37.250
Now, why don't we start
with what you want.

00:33:37.250 --> 00:33:38.686
What I want, huh?

00:33:38.686 --> 00:33:41.080
Your demands.
Can you share that with me?

00:33:42.951 --> 00:33:45.345
Offer to let Gabriel go.

00:33:45.345 --> 00:33:46.520
I can't leave you
with him.

00:33:46.520 --> 00:33:47.826
Mr. Barry?

00:33:47.826 --> 00:33:49.349
Yeah, I'm s--
I'm still here.

00:33:49.349 --> 00:33:50.480
Trust me, Eric.

00:33:50.480 --> 00:33:52.743
It will buy you some time
and good will.

00:33:55.485 --> 00:33:56.878
I'll call you back.

00:34:02.101 --> 00:34:04.755
This type of traumatic news
could cause a relapse,

00:34:04.755 --> 00:34:06.845
- so I'm concerned that--
- You're concerned?

00:34:06.845 --> 00:34:09.325
Some nutjob is holding a gun
on two of our colleagues.

00:34:09.325 --> 00:34:10.500
You heard that part, right?

00:34:10.500 --> 00:34:13.895
We'll be as tactful
as we can.

00:34:13.895 --> 00:34:17.768
Daisy, these are reporters
from The Daily Alaskan.

00:34:17.768 --> 00:34:19.770
They want to talk to you
about your father.

00:34:23.818 --> 00:34:24.819
That's my dad in there?

00:34:26.560 --> 00:34:27.691
I'm sorry
to spring this on you,

00:34:27.691 --> 00:34:29.432
but our friends
are in real danger.

00:34:29.432 --> 00:34:31.130
Well, what can I do?

00:34:31.130 --> 00:34:33.436
We'd like for you to come back
to the newsroom with us.

00:34:33.436 --> 00:34:35.743
If you could just talk
to your dad--

00:34:35.743 --> 00:34:37.484
There's nothing
that I can say.

00:34:37.484 --> 00:34:38.877
I haven't seen or spoken
to him in years.

00:34:38.877 --> 00:34:40.356
Just seeing you there
could help.

00:34:42.489 --> 00:34:44.578
He threw me out.
He can't stand me.

00:34:44.578 --> 00:34:45.709
That's not true.

00:34:45.709 --> 00:34:48.495
He left you a letter
full of regret.

00:34:48.495 --> 00:34:50.236
And you can read it,
but what you need to know

00:34:50.236 --> 00:34:51.585
is that
he was saying goodbye.

00:34:51.585 --> 00:34:54.153
He's not planning on
coming out alive.

00:34:54.153 --> 00:34:55.545
You could change that.

00:34:58.592 --> 00:35:01.769
Look, my dad,
he doesn't want to change.

00:35:01.769 --> 00:35:02.944
He's not well.

00:35:05.207 --> 00:35:07.688
I'm the last person
that could reach him.

00:35:07.688 --> 00:35:08.907
I can't help you.

00:35:11.344 --> 00:35:13.172
- Daisy, please--
- I just can't.

00:35:13.172 --> 00:35:14.825
I'm sorry.

00:35:14.825 --> 00:35:17.437
Daisy. Wait!

00:35:20.309 --> 00:35:21.223
What's on your mind?

00:35:23.486 --> 00:35:24.444
I'm not sure.

00:35:27.577 --> 00:35:29.057
I'm just tired of feeling
like this.

00:35:32.843 --> 00:35:33.975
Of feeling less than.

00:35:36.369 --> 00:35:37.283
And being angry...

00:35:39.807 --> 00:35:40.808
...at everyone.

00:35:46.248 --> 00:35:49.121
Eric, it feels like
we're coming to the end here.

00:35:51.558 --> 00:35:55.605
No one's been hurt, which means
you can walk out that door

00:35:55.605 --> 00:35:57.520
and not give away
your entire future.

00:36:00.697 --> 00:36:01.698
What future?

00:36:09.315 --> 00:36:10.403
Can I see that?

00:36:12.187 --> 00:36:13.188
What you've been writing?

00:36:39.693 --> 00:36:41.347
You don't make me sound
like a monster...

00:36:43.305 --> 00:36:44.480
...or an idiot.

00:36:47.527 --> 00:36:48.484
You're gonna get this printed?

00:36:50.617 --> 00:36:52.532
You have my word.

00:36:52.532 --> 00:36:55.535
Well, that's something,
I guess.

00:36:57.537 --> 00:36:58.538
That's something.

00:37:12.378 --> 00:37:13.857
Eric, where are you going?

00:37:16.556 --> 00:37:18.210
Eric, don't.

00:37:22.692 --> 00:37:24.477
Eric.

00:37:44.497 --> 00:37:46.151
Eileen.

00:38:10.479 --> 00:38:11.698
Come to me!
Come to me!

00:38:17.878 --> 00:38:19.445
- You're both good to go.
- Thanks.

00:38:21.838 --> 00:38:23.405
Never seen anyone die before.

00:38:25.059 --> 00:38:26.060
Have you?

00:38:27.279 --> 00:38:29.150
I have, yeah.

00:38:29.150 --> 00:38:31.065
In Afghanistan.

00:38:43.991 --> 00:38:44.818
Eileen.

00:38:47.342 --> 00:38:48.865
Are you hurt?

00:38:48.865 --> 00:38:50.954
No, I'm okay. Thanks.

00:38:56.046 --> 00:38:57.091
Oh, God.

00:39:04.229 --> 00:39:06.187
Hey, is, uh,
the bar still open?

00:39:06.187 --> 00:39:08.363
We've been here all night.

00:39:08.363 --> 00:39:11.149
All of us. Never left.

00:39:11.149 --> 00:39:12.802
Even Bob.

00:39:12.802 --> 00:39:14.935
He and Yuna went to track down
Barry's daughter.

00:39:18.895 --> 00:39:20.114
You're good people.

00:39:21.289 --> 00:39:23.204
Thanks.

00:39:23.204 --> 00:39:25.119
You're one of us.

00:39:26.773 --> 00:39:28.514
Come on.
I'll take you back to the hotel.

00:39:44.704 --> 00:39:46.488
Last night,
a man broke into the newsroom

00:39:46.488 --> 00:39:49.012
of The Daily Alaskan
and threatened to end my life

00:39:49.012 --> 00:39:51.885
because he didn't like the way
I did my job.

00:39:51.885 --> 00:39:54.714
I was shocked, of course.

00:39:54.714 --> 00:39:56.237
But sadly, I was not surprised.

00:39:58.979 --> 00:40:00.502
Several months ago,
a well-respected

00:40:00.502 --> 00:40:02.374
investigative reporter
was stabbed to death

00:40:02.374 --> 00:40:05.899
outside his Las Vegas home
by a corrupt politician

00:40:05.899 --> 00:40:08.206
he exposed.

00:40:08.206 --> 00:40:10.425
Physical attacks
on members of the press

00:40:10.425 --> 00:40:13.733
have risen dramatically
in recent years.

00:40:13.733 --> 00:40:18.085
One only need to turn on
the TV to understand why.

00:40:18.085 --> 00:40:20.305
It's become fashionable
for people in power,

00:40:20.305 --> 00:40:22.176
right up to those
in the White House,

00:40:22.176 --> 00:40:24.091
to delegitimize
print journalists

00:40:24.091 --> 00:40:27.747
by calling what we write
fake news

00:40:27.747 --> 00:40:31.533
and designating reporters
as "enemies of the people."

00:40:31.533 --> 00:40:34.275
There are armies of
talking heads and bloggers,

00:40:34.275 --> 00:40:36.364
in the mainstream
and on the fringe,

00:40:36.364 --> 00:40:38.540
echoing that message,

00:40:38.540 --> 00:40:42.544
not just demonizing reporters,
but dehumanizing them, too.

00:40:43.980 --> 00:40:46.505
These attacks put a bull's-eye
on our backs,

00:40:46.505 --> 00:40:49.334
and if we don't stand up
against this as a society

00:40:49.334 --> 00:40:51.336
and remind
our harshest critics

00:40:51.336 --> 00:40:55.296
that liberty depends
on a fair and free press,

00:40:55.296 --> 00:40:59.300
the bull's-eye will wind up on
the back of democracy itself.

00:40:59.300 --> 00:41:03.086
Pursuit of a common truth
is a responsibility I cherish

00:41:03.086 --> 00:41:07.134
and will never,
ever abandon,

00:41:07.134 --> 00:41:08.875
even if you put a gun
to my head.

00:41:30.853 --> 00:41:32.202
Hi.

00:41:32.202 --> 00:41:33.116
It's me.

00:41:35.162 --> 00:41:35.989
Yeah.

00:41:37.817 --> 00:41:39.297
Uh, I got a favor to ask.
