Tozawa owns this guy,
blackmailing him with the Yoshino videotape.
Now he's got the FBI in his pocket.
If I didn't hate that fucker so much, I would be impressed.
To publish anything, we need evidence
Tozawa actually got this illegal transplant.
And name who helped him do it.
It was Lynn Oberfeld.
She's on the take.
We have no proof.
Jake's circumstantial evidence is strong.
Circumstantial doesn't get printed by the "Meicho."
Think about it.
Do we really believe
one FBI agent could make this happen?
What if the FBI itself made it happen?
♪ ♪
Hawaii.
The Miura-gumi bust.
Tozawa knows he is dying.
He cannot get Shigematsu
to take him off the no-fly list.
- So he contacts the FBI. - Yes.
Offers them information on yakuza activity in America.
In exchange for keeping him alive.
There was another FBI yakuza bust
in San Francisco three months ago.
[smacks table]
It's still just a theory.
Not if we can get someone at the U.S. embassy
to confirm it.
What about your friend Jason?
See what he knows.
I will go to Tozawa's doctor.
Where Jake got those medical records.
Find out if he had any contact
with U.S. authorities or hospitals in Minneapolis.

[line beeps] - Why are you not answering?
Tozawa's wife, she knows. Call me.
You ever heard anything like this before?
There was talk years ago about a yakuza
out of Yokohama being an FBI informant.
Harada Isamu.
[engine backfires]
[engine rumbling]
Harada Isamu. Yeah, I've heard of him before.
Someone claimed to have seen his signature
on an official FBI agreement.
Okay.
I'm gonna take this information back to my colleagues.
I'll let you know what we find out.
Jake.
[engine turns over]
I have a favor to ask you. Confidentially.
Of course. What is it?
We are working on the story about the yakuza
who got a liver transplant in the U.S.
There is a belief among my colleagues
he did so with help from the FBI.
- Seriously? - Yes.
In exchange, we think he provided
the information about yakuza activity in the States.
A colleague just told me that in another such case,
there was a signed contract between the FBI
and the Japanese criminal informant.
You know I wouldn't have access to that information.
You have connections in Washington, D.C.
Is that what I am to you? A source?
You know what you mean to me.
If we do not prove this story,
my friend Jake could be killed.
Please.
What's the guy's name?
Shinzo Tozawa.
You know him?
I've heard of him.
I have to go.
Unless there's something else I can do for you?
Nuclear codes, maybe?
I'll see what I can do.
No guarantees.
[both speaking Japanese]
[speaking Japanese]
Hmm...
Okay.
You could have killed that man.
That was never the plan.
I lost my shit.
So there was a plan.
But you didn't tell me because you knew I wouldn't help.
He's the reason Polina ended up on Tozawa's boat.
- Even so. - You're right.
I'm sorry.
Samantha.
You always run toward chaos.
Maybe you feel most alive
when everything around you is falling apart.
But I don't.
The club you made was a beautiful thing.
Thank you.
But we are done.
You and I.

I'm finished with the mizu shobai.

Hey, it's Jason.
I spoke to a friend in D.C.,
had him poke around about your guy.
And?
Shinzo Tozawa's been a criminal informant
for the FBI for the last year and a half.
His information has led
to a few major busts in the U.S.
[sighs] Thank you.
Will your source go on record?
No.
But there is a contract signed by both parties.
His colleague in the States has seen it.
It's a risky move on Tozawa's part.
If it came out in his world that he was dealing
with the FBI, who knows what kind of reprisal
there would be.
Yeah, but better face the risks
than die of liver disease.
It's his only move.
Can you get a copy?
Of a top secret United States government agreement?
We need on-the-record confirmation.
Get an appointment with the FBI Legat there.
I'll do it.
I'll get the quote.
You can't be seen pursuing this.
Yeah, Maruyama-san, it's the American embassy.

Hey.
I'm sorry for the unannounced visit.
It's fine. But I just have a minute.
What's on your mind?
I just wanted to thank you properly.
You know I'm not supposed to accept gifts.
Oh, well...
I won't tell anyone if you don't.
[laughs]
There was just one little thing
I wanted to follow up on.
This guy you said got the transplant, Stanley Tanaka?
- Yes, Spencer Tanaka. - Spencer Tanaka.
And he's a high school English teacher, yeah?
- Yeah, that's right. - Got it.
I guess my question is,
how does a high school English teacher afford
a $250,000 watch?
Because that's what Spencer Tanaka gave Dr. Walker
as a thank-you gift for his new liver.
I know Shinzo Tozawa is an informant for the FBI.
I've seen a copy of the agreement
between the Bureau and Tozawa.
My source gave me a copy.
- Bullshit. - It's not the only one.
Does Isamu Harada ring a bell?
The "Meicho" is gonna publish
all of the FBI's yakuza asset agreements.
I wanted to give you an opportunity
to respond beforehand.
If those names go public, it will compromise a number
of extremely sensitive operations,
not to mention put agents' lives at risk.
Well, I'm a reporter.
The people have a right to know.
You're also a U.S. citizen, which means
by knowingly disrupting domestic investigations,
you could be brought up on charges.
You've heard of the First Amendment, right?
Didn't they give you one of those tiny Constitutions
when you took the oath?
You listen to me, you little shit.
You give me an on-background quote attributed to the FBI
confirming the operation, I won't print any contracts.
Except Tozawa.
He's done.
I want the name of your source.
What is it with you law enforcement types
not understanding the meaning of the word "confidential"?
Give me the name of your source,
you get your confirmation.
That's the deal.
- We got it. - The FBI confirmed?
Tozawa is an FBI asset.
How did you get that?
I may have bluffed and told her
I had copies of a bunch of their CI agreements.
I'll get you the finished piece as soon as I can.
Jake, this puts an even bigger target on your back.
I'm not sure how safe you'll be even here at the "Meicho."
Don't worry.
