Chase Episode 1.16 Roundup

A swaggering young pimp, Lucky Fargas, bids his ladies goodbye as they drop him off at the airport. Lucky thinks he has won a trip to the Super Bowl. He steps into the terminal where each member of the H.E.A.T. team plays a role. "Airline Agent" Daisy directs Lucky to Calor Airlines, the airline for the Super Bowl winners. Hank Collins enters the terminal. Daisy asks if he's looking for Calor Airlines. Hank looks around suspiciously, says no and leaves, tossing his winning letter in the trash. Marco, dressed as airport security, offers to go after him. Daisy thinks it might spook the others. Daisy comments that they've got Collins' address, so they'll find him. "Ticket Agent" Annie sends Lucky to the lounge for the winners, where Luke is dressed as a waiter. Just as Lucky recognizes one of the security guys, the U.S. Marshals reveal themselves and arrest the "winners."

Later that night, Annie addresses the bull pen, sharing that on day one of "Operation Lasso," they brought in 34 fugitives, a new record. Tomorrow, day two, is Super Bowl Sunday, which makes it a great day to catch fugitives. Jimmy explains that once a year, the Marshals team up with local law enforcement to clear as many backlogged warrants as possible. He goes on to describe how they like to have fun with it, so they're paired up in teams and they compete. Marco and Daisy have won the last three years in a row. Annie goes over the rules - once they hook a fugitive, he must be brought to H.E.A.T. for processing and each fugitive represents one point. At the end of the day, the team with the most points wins the trophy, a stuffed armadillo named "Shelly" that is mounted on a bankers box.

Marco is fired up to defend his title with Daisy, but she explains that she's benched because she has court on Monday for her DUI "thing." But Daisy tells Marco that Luke's got his back. Marco turns his game face to Luke and tells him that if they lose Shelly, he'll kill Luke. Annie wishes everyone good luck and happy hunting. Kickoff is at 4:00 a.m.!At 4:00 a.m. sharp, Marco and Luke peek in the window at their first fugitive, Chris Beecher, who is in the middle of having sex with his girlfriend. They interrupt and arrest Chris, making sure to snap a Polaroid of their first collar of the day.Annie and Jimmy follow a fugitive, Alan Smith, into a laundromat. They spot Smith hiding in a dryer, but play dumb. Jimmy puts some coins in and starts the dryer, and Smith surrenders. They arrest Smith and Annie gets a photo.

Marco and Luke corner their next fugitive, a huge biker named Zeke Winters. Zeke raises his hands in surrender. When Luke is behind Zeke cuffing him, Zeke lashes out, pushing Luke into a car. After a knock-down, drag-out brawl, Marco and Luke finally subdue Zeke by smashing his head through a car window. Marco finds a sawed-off shotgun in Zeke's duffel and Luke takes a picture.Back at H.E.A.T., Luke and Marco post the Polaroids of their first two fugitives - they're already in the lead. Annie and Jimmy enter with their single picture and endure some taunting from the leaders.

Daisy stops by her brother Mark's Super Bowl party. He greets her with a hug, as does her niece, Clara. Daisy asks Clara about her violin lessons and her teacher, Mr. Porter. Daisy shares with Clara that Mr. Porter used to teach her music as well. Daisy asks Clara if Mr. Porter has ever "tickled" Clara. Clara denies it, then runs off to watch the game. Daisy pulls Mark aside, tells him that he can't allow Clara to take violin lessons with Mr. Porter anymore. Daisy tells Mark about Mr. Porter's sexual abuse of her, how he touched Daisy and she never told anyone. Daisy is worried that Mr. Porter is still at it and could be abusing Clara. Daisy promises Mark that she'll handle it.

Annie and Jimmy move down the walkway of a grungy apartment building, headed to arrest Hank Collins for petty larceny. Annie checks the score of the game through the window of an apartment. As they approach Collins' place, gunfire erupts from inside. Jimmy pulls Annie to the ground as Collins exits his apartment, still firing. Annie and Jimmy pursue Collins, but he gets away in his car.Annie and Jimmy discuss why a petty thief would need the kind of heavy artillery that Collins shot at them with. Jimmy recovers a voicemail off Jimmy's phone. It's from a girlfriend they can track down through caller ID.Marco and Luke arrest Tom Churchill, who is wanted for identity theft. Churchill is handing out flyers in a hot dog costume and tries to flee. He begs Marco and Luke to let him take off the costume before they bring him to jail. They refuse and snap his picture.

Marco and Luke lock up Churchill at H.E.A.T. Marco swaggers around the bull pen, bragging about their total so far. Just then, two fugitives attack each other in the cage. Marco separates them, explaining to Luke that they're from rival gangs, 1-8-7 and Satan's Outlaws, and there's a lot of bad blood between them.Annie and Jimmy prepare to head into the house of April Miller, the woman who left the voicemail for Hank Collins. At H.E.A.T., Marco takes a dance break during the Super Bowl halftime show to enjoy his lead in the competition so far. Annie and Jimmy find April in the house. They check the rest of the property, but Collins is nowhere to be found. Annie catches up with Jimmy in the garage and reports that April said Collins hit the road an hour ago. Jimmy shows Annie a cache of guns in the garage, enough firepower for a small army.

Annie questions April. April says that Collins got the guns at work. Collins works at a security company that guards military bases. Jimmy pulls Annie aside and tells her that a weapons depot at Fort Hood was robbed two days ago. Annie guesses that Collins worked security there. Jimmy holds up a tool and deduces that Collins has been filing off serials numbers to up the street value of the guns. They wonder whom Collins is selling military weapons to. Just then, Annie's phone rings. They got a hit on Collins' car at a restaurant a couple blocks away.Annie and Jimmy wait outside the restaurant where Collins' car was spotted. They see a man wearing a baseball cap exit the restaurant and walk toward the car. Annie and Jimmy grab the guy. It's not Collins. The man, Taylor, explains that Collins borrowed his van, so he's driving Collins' car.

Marco and Luke nab Elroy Matthews in a dumpster. Elroy stinks so badly that neither Marco nor Luke wants to cuff him, and they argue about it. But they also want the point in the fugitive competition. Finally, Marco tosses his cuffs to Elroy and tells him to cuff himself.Annie and Jimmy question Taylor about Collins' gun operation. Taylor doesn't know anything about it, but he saw Collins use an M4 rifle when they went shooting the day before. Taylor says that a scary biker showed up and Collins had him wait in the car while he shot the gun and took it apart. Jimmy tells Taylor that he was at an arms deal, and asks him about the biker. Taylor says that he was wearing a leather vest with "S-O" on it. Jimmy comments that it stands for "Satan's Outlaws." Taylor adds that the biker commented that there was a "war" coming.

Daisy stands in front of a mirror in a restroom. She nervously attaches a wireless microphone to the front of her bra, then buttons her blouse. She steels herself, then exits the restroom to the bar. Daisy greets Jared Porter, her former music teacher. They make small talk and Porter comments on how great Daisy looks. He mentions that Daisy's mother shared that Daisy's in law enforcement now, which Daisy confirms. Daisy asks Porter about giving her niece music lessons. Porter admits that Clara reminds him of Daisy. Just when Daisy thinks she's about to get somewhere, Porter says he has to leave. He pulls Daisy into a tight hug, whispering that she was the best student he ever had. Porter leaves. Frustrated, Daisy smashes the recorder.

At H.E.A.T., Marco taunts Annie about how far ahead he and Luke are in the fugitive competition. Jimmy approaches, tells Annie that he's called for information about Satan's Outlaws. Marco offers that he worked biker gangs when he was in Narcotics, and Satan's Outlaws is a local gang whose members are looking to expand. Marco tells them that he and Luke arrested a Satan's Outlaw in the morning, their first fugitive. Annie thinks they should have a chat with him.

Daisy parks across the street from Porter's house. She puts on surgical gloves and breaks into the house. Daisy walks through the house, making her way to the bedroom, where Porter's abuse of her happened. She searches around, trying to find something. Finally, Daisy spots an old cello case. She opens it and finds a gallery of mini Ziploc baggies that each contains a lock of hair. Then Daisy notices a stack of Polaroid pictures. She pulls them out and looks through them. Daisy stops when she finds a picture of herself. Then she finds a picture of Clara and realizes that her niece is one of Porter's victims. Daisy puts everything back, closes the cello case and leaves.

Annie and Jimmy question Chris Beecher about Satan's Outlaws buying guns from Hank Collins in full view (though out of earshot) of the other prisoners in the cage. Beecher insists that he won't rat. Jimmy comments that all he has to do is smile and pat Beecher on the back and everyone will think he's a rat. Jimmy offers that his other option is that he could punch Beecher in the face, make him look like a hero. Beecher remains silent and Annie and Jimmy smile at him and start to make a public show of his "cooperation." Beecher cracks, gives the location of a crash house. Jimmy then punches Beecher in the face as the guys in the cage watch.

Daisy returns to her brother's house to talk to Clara. Daisy questions Clara again about whether Mr. Porter has ever touched her. Clara denies it but isn't very convincing. Daisy wonders if Mr. Porter has ever given Clara any gifts. She shows Clara the plastic flower bracelet. Clara says no but puts her MP3 player away. Daisy asks Clara if Mr. Porter has ever given her secret lessons in his bedroom, assuring her that it's okay to talk about it. Mark interrupts and pulls Daisy aside. He's angry and says that Clara's mother and he will figure out what to do. Daisy explains that she needs Clara's statement. She tells Mark that she broke into Porter's house and found a photo of Clara, and if Daisy can get Clara to give a statement, she can get a search warrant. Mark refuses to let Daisy talk to Clara, tells her to find another way.

Annie and Jimmy stake out a gun buy at a warehouse. They watch as Collins gets out of a van and negotiates with some bikers. Annie and Jimmy lead a group of law enforcement officers as they take down the bikers. Annie chases Collins and knocks him over and through a wall. Jimmy approaches and compliments Annie.

Back at H.E.A.T, Marco celebrates with the "Shelly" trophy, counting down 60 seconds to victory. Annie and Jimmy enter and confirm that they got Collins. They explain that they had to take Collins and his accomplices to HPD because there wasn't enough room there. Annie puts up the Polaroids of their fugitives one by one. Marco fears that they tied each other. Annie and Jimmy assure him that it's not a tie, it's a smackdown! Annie and Jimmy whoop it up, celebrating their victory. Marco finds Daisy, asks her if she got her stuff worked out. Daisy says that she did, and she knows what she has to do. Annie, Jimmy, Daisy, Marco and Luke have another Marshal take a photo of them with Annie holding the trophy. Luke asks Daisy if she's okay. Daisy asks Luke if he wants to get out of there. He does.

Later, Daisy and Luke have sex at Daisy's place. Luke falls asleep, then wakes up in the middle of the night to find Daisy gone. She's left several letters, one for each member of the team and one for her parents. Luke reads his letter, which we hear in Daisy' voice as a narration. Daisy explains that she's been living with something that's been controlling her and she can't run away anymore. So Daisy has gone to Porter's house with a gun. She enters his bedroom and looks him in the eye as he wakes up. Luke races over to try and stop Daisy, but he hears gunshots while he's still in the driveway - he's too late. Luke finds Daisy sitting in Porter's bedroom, crying. Porter is dead. Luke takes her gun from Daisy.

Annie arrives. Daisy shows her the Polaroids and tells her that Porter hurt 37 girls, but he won't be hurting anyone anymore. Jimmy and Marco arrive. Jimmy tries to concoct a self-defense story for Daisy, but Daisy says there's no fixing this. Marco wonders why Daisy didn't come to them, because they're family and they could've been there for her. The team surrounds Daisy to protect her as she's led away in cuffs. Daisy turns to them before she gets in the HPD cruiser, tells them that it's okay, she's free now. The last image is of the five friends smiling in the Polaroid from a few hours earlier: a family now torn apart.
