- [scoffs]

- No, seriously.

That's what your FBI friends called you.

They said you were exemplary.

I've never had anybody say

I was exemplary in my whole life.

Leaving law enforcement

was a well-thought-out decision

on my part, ambassador.

Yeah. Yeah, I know.

I know. They told me about that,

and I'm truly sorry.

Come on.

But it seems that the ramifications of this

are very big-politically, globally.

See, these vigilantes have taken on

a whole string of high-profile targets,

targets your FBI guys

told me on the phone last night

that they've been tracking for years

and could never get a look at.

So now they need to know

how come these vigilantes

can get inside when they can't?

And who are they, these guys?

And what do they know?

How do they know it?

And why them, not us?

What Intel do we have?

They tell me that some militant

is setting up safe houses.

He doesn't know why,

but he knows they're here in villages.

Islamic Jihad.

Am I being pressured

into this assignment, sir?

You have complete disclosure,

full disclosure, everything.

Consul General has told me

that your clearances

have been made complete.

If you need help from local

law enforcement, you have it.

We need to get a handle

on this, Robert.

[sighs]

And you're the man for it.

You're...

Well, you know what you are.

- Exemplary.

- Exemplary.

[belly dance music plays]

[wolf whistle]

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Wait.

[applause]

[speaking Bulgarian]

[speaking Bulgarian]

[beeps]

Lonewolf. Proceeding with next target.

[dog whines]

[whines]

[barking]

[speaking Turkish]

[man praying in Arabic]

[barking]

[whining and barking]

No witnesses.

[dog yelps]

[belly dance music plays]

These are crazy times.

No. He's clever, this guy,

and based on the efficiency of the hit,

very well equipped.

Any idea who might be behind it?

None whatsoever, but, uh,

it does have me a little bit curious

as to why.

Why don't you give me

your professional opinion?

I mean, what makes somebody

become a vigilante?

I mean, profile him for me.

Well, let's see.

Well, to take responsibility

for the crime, right?

But he hides behind a mask.

It takes guts, patience,

and an odd sort of morality.

And he's gotten away with it

a number of times,

which has probably

emboldened him and...

makes him think

he's not gonna get caught.

[applause]

Oh, lovely.

Well, let's hope he's wrong about that.

[new song begins]

Ah, our friend from the other night.

The fascinating thing about the female form

is its supple nature, is it not?

Its elasticity, its alacrity, and...

variability.

You're a slow starter, my friend,

but I'll give you this:

you have impeccable taste.
