THE WRAITH — Episode 2: POWER MOVES

Añadido: 2026-05-25

[00:00:26]Fire. Ready.

[00:00:37]Oh no.

[00:00:47]Heat. Heat.

[00:01:35]For the sixth consecutive night, organized crime in James city has suffered more violent attacks linked to the figure known only as the wraith.

[00:01:42]Jimmy, I found the stash house. Cartels moving pain through an apartment and building off clay.

[00:01:58]Power's out. Arm us.

[00:02:04]>> He's here.

[00:02:06]Heat.

[00:02:19]Heat.

[00:02:51]No, don't wait.

[00:02:55]Heat. Heat.

[00:03:39]The gangs almost scared.

[00:03:40]>> The gang scared us for years. Now they scared whoever he is. Leave that man alone.

[00:03:49]Multiple operations shut down across James City. The gang scared us for years. Cruise through the hoods a little. Let the gangbangers know you're out there.

[00:04:23]That's him.

[00:04:25]>> Cartels, gangs, and mob organizations are now reportedly afraid to operate after dark. Whoever the wraith is, James City criminals finally fear something.

[00:04:34]And if you're watching NCI News, I'd love the opportunity to interview you.

[00:04:39]Heat. Heat.

[00:05:20]Breaking tonight, authorities have confirmed another major cartel stash house and drug distribution center was completely destroyed just hours ago.

[00:05:27]Police sources say whoever is responsible appears connected to the mysterious figure now being called the Wraith.

[00:05:33]This Wraith guy has the whole city losing its mind tonight.

[00:05:39]Honestly, it's kind of amazing.

[00:05:50]This guy's taking down criminals almost every night now. I mean, it's crazy, but honestly, feels good seeing somebody finally scare those animals.

[00:06:17]I really hope this wraith keeps going.

[00:06:23]>> Maybe somebody can finally make people feel safe when they go out.

[00:06:28]No woman should ever be afraid to go anywhere alone.

[00:06:38]>> Yeah, babe. That's true.

[00:06:43]>> Everything okay?

[00:06:45]>> I just don't want you out there by yourself at night.

[00:06:49]If you ever need to go somewhere, call me.

[00:06:55]I'll go with you.

[00:07:01]Wow, that was unexpectedly sexy.

[00:07:08]>> You know I can't resist your charm, Jimmy.

[00:07:10]>> I'm cooking tomorrow.

[00:07:13]>> Oh, really?

[00:07:15]>> You should come over.

[00:07:20]>> Mr. Jimmy Vance, are you trying to seduce me?

[00:07:28]Because I think it's working.

[00:07:31]>> Get some sleep tomorrow.

[00:07:41]>> Good night, Jimmy.

[00:08:05]You hit them hard tonight, but they're not going to sit back and let this happen.

[00:08:14]The cartel's fractured now, but the Russians, the mob, and trafficking crews are already moving to fill the vacuum.

[00:08:23]>> The wraith is hitting the cartel's heart. We move in on their territory.

[00:08:27]Exactly. This map shows our targets.

[00:08:29]Profits will double. It's perfect. Then it's settled. Cartel territory is wide open. We move in now. I'm loading up.

[00:08:36]What's the play? We take the east routes. No mistakes. Good. Let's finish this. We own the night. The rates attacks are escalating. We hit back hard. D boss weapons are ready.

[00:08:48]>> Good. We take the fight to James City.

[00:08:55]>> Tomorrow, someone's arriving from the UAE.

[00:08:58]Her organization helped build the technology you're using.

[00:09:05]The creator herself wants to meet you.

[00:09:08]She wants to make sure she gave you the best possible gear for what's coming.

[00:09:23]You really like tomorrow.

[00:09:27]Love is great, Jimmy, but you have to be careful.

[00:09:33]Tomorrow can't know who you are right now. It's about protecting the people we love.

[00:09:40]That's why all this matters.

[00:09:43]>> Why are you doing this?

[00:09:46]>> Because I have to.

[00:09:56]The mob killed my family and the same politicians my father voted for helped them.

[00:10:04]It destroyed me.

[00:10:07]I buried myself in work trying to make sure I never saw another person go through what I went through.

[00:10:14]I'm sorry for your loss.

[00:10:18]But we're going to get them.

[00:10:20]All of them.

[00:10:30]Heat. Heat.

[00:11:01]Y'all built a system that only works for the people sitting in this room.

[00:11:06]Now the streets changing and y'all scared because somebody finally hit back.

[00:11:12]That rape situation changed everything.

[00:11:15]Cartels nervous, traffickers nervous, politicians nervous.

[00:11:20]That's what fear do. Funny thing is, half the people y'all call criminals learn the game from politicians.

[00:11:28]Difference is y'all wear suits. That Riverside Community Center fire was supposed to bury me, but somebody got sloppy.

[00:11:38]And I know I was set up.

[00:11:42]You've become a very dangerous man, Ricky.

[00:11:46]No, Senator.

[00:11:48]I became a very aware man >> after I'm acquitted later today.

[00:11:58]I'm announcing my campaign for governor.

[00:12:09]I don't expect you.

[00:12:13]You better damn well get on this train and support me or I'm going to burn your asses worse than the wraith.

[00:12:28]I'm not going to die remember that some black drug dealer y'all used.

[00:12:33]Either you help me become something bigger or everything gets exposed.

[00:12:42]got all their asses recorded, Ricky.

[00:12:54]Now get to your damn jobs and get me out this [ __ ] and Angela, a pleasure to finally meet.

[00:13:49]Welcome to James City, Miss Al-Nair.

[00:13:52]Corp doesn't do anything halfway. We prefer to stay ahead of the world.

[00:14:18]Honestly, Jimmy shouldn't have survived.

[00:14:20]The meteor molecules became unstable during testing, but somehow his body bonded with it perfectly. That wasn't an accident. The suit systems I designed were only meant to stabilize the reaction. But Jimmy synchronized with both the mineral and the suit itself. I have never seen anything like this before.

[00:14:39]James City's been fighting itself for years. Corruption, poverty, violence. If governance won't rebuild places like this, someone has to.

[00:14:49]>> It is the same everywhere. Middle East conflicts, Africa, political unrest.

[00:14:55]For black people, for Arabs, the struggle is not very different. The world is changing faster than governments can control. Artificial intelligence, corporate wars, political collapse. And now Jimmy, he may be the beginning of something entirely new. So yes, I would like to meet him. And I want to see every medical file Dr. Johnson has. Tamara has been overseeing his progression personally. You sound protective of him.

[00:15:27]>> Beautiful.

[00:15:28]You built all of this here in James City. I did.

[00:15:49]Leila, welcome. This is our genetics division. It's extraordinary. The scale is impressive. We're mapping genetic anomalies. The progress is promising. I see. And this leads to tomorrow's lab.

[00:16:03]This should not be possible.

[00:16:05]No mutations.

[00:16:07]His cells bonded seamlessly.

[00:16:10]Jimmy, what are you becoming?

[00:16:52]Watch the drive.

[00:16:54]>> Good ball handling. That's a good one.

[00:16:59]>> I'm really sorry about your sister, Jimmy.

[00:17:02]>> She loved this place.

[00:17:04]She made a difference around here.

[00:17:08]Some days it still doesn't feel real.

[00:17:10]>> Pass it here.

[00:17:14]>> Something about this Ricky Hall case doesn't sit right with me. What do you mean? Ricky's done robberies and street business, but killing innocent people, that's never really been his style.

[00:17:24]So if Ricky didn't do it, who set him up?

[00:17:29]>> Big players are involved now. So politicians are involved, too. Yeah, they're all over this thing.

[00:17:36]If you all get any leads, let me know.

[00:17:39]We will.

[00:17:41]And Jimmy, if anything comes up, call me. I will.

[00:17:54]There are no mutations whatsoever.

[00:17:58]His body bonded with the mineral seamlessly. Every damaged cellular pathway was strengthened instead of corrupted.

[00:18:05]A phenomenon like this may never happen again. I still don't understand why the mineral adapted specifically to him. The mineral strengthened what his body required most. That gives him advantages ordinary men will never possess. You think it inherenced his natural instincts? No.

[00:18:22]I believe it perfected them.

[00:18:29]He must be an extraordinary man.

[00:18:32]These biological readings are impossible. The possibilities of what a man like this could accomplish are extraordinary. In war, in intelligence operations, in survival itself, he would always possess the advantage. You may be looking at the evolution of modern warfare and apparently an extremely attractive man. He's more complicated than that.

[00:18:57]Does he have someone?

[00:18:59]Yes, I believe he does.

[00:19:03]Lucky woman. You care about him. I care about the project. No, you care about him.

[00:19:30]This afternoon, all eyes remain fixed on the James City Courthouse as closing arguments prepared to begin in the Ricky Hall murder and arson trial. Hall continues to deny any involvement in the deadly community center and arson fire.

[00:19:39]While growing political pressure and questions surrounding land development deals continue raising across the city.

[00:19:46]>> Ricky, did you order the fire?

[00:19:49]>> Are you worried about the closing arguments today?

[00:20:24]This court is now back in session.

[00:20:27]Counselors, prepare to proceed with closing arguments.

[00:20:44]This case is not about the facts of a crime, but about the fear that silenced a room.

[00:21:02]Criminals who operate through fearing the blood depend on witnesses staying silent.

[00:21:15]Ricky Hall counted on your fear to protect him for years.

[00:21:21]The evidence we have presented leaves no room for doubt regarding the events of that night.

[00:21:29]Don't look at them. Fear and silence.

[00:21:34]They are exactly what allowed men like Ricky Hall to operate without consequence.

[00:21:40]Ricky Hall started the fire that killed five people and burned down a community center.

[00:21:48]You have to find Ricky Hall guilty.

[00:21:52]Thank you, your honor. The prosecution rests its case.

[00:22:03]Defense, you may proceed with your closing argument.

[00:22:19]>> Your honor, I will be giving my own closing statement. This trial was never truly about justice, but about wealthy people wanting valuable land in Riverside. The community center became collateral damage in a much bigger political schme. Powerful elites needed someone easy to blame for the deadly fire.

[00:22:37]They chose the black man with a criminal record because they believed nobody would question it.

[00:22:43]The prosecution never had a real case from the beginning.

[00:22:47]You spent weeks listening to politicians and elites trying to use me to cover up their own crimes.

[00:22:55]>> The evidence before you paints a picture of a crime, but a calculated act.

[00:23:02]I have to go back to the very beginning.

[00:23:06]Not one prosecution witness ever confirmed seeing me at the scene of the fire. The real criminals are often powerful politicians and elites hiding behind expensive suits and television speeches. The politicians you see on television giving speeches are performing for cameras. But corruption happens behind closed doors. And they created this entire setup to frame me.

[00:23:31]The law says guilty beyond a reasonable doubt unless the accused person is black.

[00:23:36]Too many people are treated as guilty without proof simply because of how they look or where they come from. If I am acquitted, I will run for governor and expose the corruption destroying this justice system. I promise to end political favoritism and remove politicians who remain in office without helping ordinary people.

[00:23:52]>> Did you hear that?

[00:23:55]>> Sending an innocent man to prison for the rest of his life only encourages corrupt people to keep doing the same thing to others. Oppression only exists when powerful people abuse their authority over ordinary people.

[00:24:16]the defense rest. Your honor, >> you will now retire to deliberate on the verdict.

[00:24:38]The jury in the Ricky Hall trial has officially entered deliberation. In a shocking development, Hall announced plans to run for governor if acquitted, promising to clean up corruption. We'll bring you more as the story unfolds.

[00:24:47]Back to you. The jury has now entered deliberations in the high-profile Ricky Hall trial. Hall's team says if acquitted, he will run for governor, promising to clean up corruption. We'll bring you more as the story develops.

[00:25:02]Do you think the jury brings the death penalty? It's possible, but it depends on the judge's instructions.

[00:25:09]>> Members of the jury, have you reached a verdict?

[00:25:16]>> Yes, your honor.

[00:25:25]>> Will the defendant please rise?

[00:25:37]Will the four person please read the verdict?

[00:25:41]>> In the case of Ricky Hall charged with arson and murder, we find the defendant not guilty.

[00:25:49]>> No.

[00:26:09]Well, we're in for it. That son of a [ __ ] has us by the balls.

[00:26:29]Let's see how this plays out. If we help get him the governor's seat, then we have levage to keep him off our backs.

[00:26:38]The justice system was designed for rich and powerful people to protect each other while ordinary people suffer the consequences. Black communities have understood corruption and unequal justice for generations. Now the entire country has finally watched the system play out in real time.

[00:26:55]>> We will expose the corruption at the highest levels.

[00:27:01]>> They tried to bury the truth inside these walls to protect their own seats.

[00:27:04]But you cannot bury an innocent man's name forever when the people are watching. If elected governor, I will expose every corrupt politician and government official who has been manipulating and exploiting ordinary people.

[00:27:17]He was supposed to be just another drug dealer, but there's something much bigger going on with him.

[00:27:26]>> I need your votes.

[00:27:44]That dressice was totally worth the price. I know. I looked amazing in it.

[00:27:54]>> Target group moving to the silver zone now.

[00:28:02]>> Get in.

[00:28:07]Watch out.

[00:28:37]The shipment routes are confirmed. Watch for interference.

[00:28:41]Another young woman has reportedly been abducted today here at James City Mall.

[00:28:44]Witnesses say the victims disappeared from the parking lot during the busy afternoon hours.

[00:28:54]>> I knew they were operating here. Stay sharp. No mistakes.

[00:28:59]Transport routes are set. Double check the schedules. Cargo loads match. We're clear. Schedules are tight. We move in two.

[00:29:23]You need to see this.

[00:29:37]Just hold still for me.

[00:29:43]You're changing faster than anything I've ever seen.

[00:29:46]>> You're becoming something special, and I don't want whatever this is between us to destroy either of our futures.

[00:29:55]Nothing's going to happen to us. It's you and me.

[00:30:16]>> Jimmy, pick up.

[00:30:20]>> This is work, baby. Jimmy, I think I found the trafficking ring organization.

[00:30:52]Alamada, the cargo trucks are approaching the pickup site.

[00:31:00]>> I want everything moved tonight.

[00:31:03]I'm sending extra men just in case you're having trouble.

[00:31:09]I heard about this so-called wraith in James City.

[00:31:14]>> Thank you.

[00:31:17]We got something for him if he shows up.

[00:31:30]Make sure there are no mistakes this time.

[00:31:43]The warehouse schematics are locked and the transport route is active.

[00:31:53]You have no idea how many women disappear into this world and are never seen again.

[00:32:00]They move them like cargo, Jimmy.

[00:32:03]Different cities, different countries.

[00:32:06]Some of these girls never make it back home.

[00:32:15]We have to stop them from destroying these women's lives.

[00:32:20]We don't just stop the shipment.

[00:32:25]We get to the source of where this is coming from.

[00:32:28]>> The intel's solid. We move now.

[00:32:31]>> Be careful. They're watching.

[00:32:33]>> I know. I'm ready for war.

[00:33:03]Heat.

[00:33:27]Heat.

[00:33:55]Sector 4 is secure.

[00:34:08]Do you really think the Wraith is out there? Don't look at the light. Just watch the dark.

[00:34:27]Heat.

[00:34:41]Heat.

[00:35:12]Chief, you need to see this.

[00:35:28]Heat. Heat.

[00:35:37]Heat. Heat.

[00:36:14]Bring everything. We don't know how many they have.

[00:36:18]Heat. Heat.

[00:36:42]Heat. Heat.

[00:37:18]Secure the perimeter now.

[00:37:28]Tonight, authorities uncovered a massive human trafficking operation at the abandoned old shipping shipping warehouse near James City Industrial District. Police are on the scene now escorting victims to safety. Police sources say more than 100 abducted women were rescued during the operation.

[00:38:16]Authorities have not confirmed the identity of the individual responsible for stopping the trafficking operation.

[00:38:21]Police sources refused to comment on reports describing a heavily armored figure seen throughout the warehouse compound during the violent assault.

[00:38:44]Look at this.

[00:38:46]The roots are global and the hierarchy is massive.

[00:38:51]>> The network is bigger than we thought.

[00:38:53]>> These victims, we have to stop this. We will follow the money.

[00:38:59]>> I'm with you, brother.

[00:39:01]>> We need to find every player connected to this around the world and take them out. We have to shut down these networks.

[00:39:09]>> Oh, we definitely will.

[00:39:11]>> Good. Let's coordinate the next phase.

[00:39:26]Don't you have somewhere you're supposed to be tonight?

[00:39:42]You are in trouble now.

[00:40:35]The view, the candles is perfect.

[00:40:38]>> All for you.

[00:40:39]>> I love this.

[00:41:00]Okay, you've definitely been hiding this from me.

[00:41:05]You really outdid yourself tonight, Jimmy.

[00:41:08]I am definitely going to have to keep you around.

[00:41:18]It's been a long road tomorrow. I'm just trying to find some peace after everything I've seen.

[00:41:29]You deserve peace, Jimmy, more than you realize.

[00:41:37]I will always be here for you.

[00:41:40]>> Same for me. Always.

[00:41:59]Whatever it is, he's pissing off the rich and powerful.

[00:42:10]Change always comes with a drastic move.

[00:42:13]And the Wraith is what that drastic move looks like. Now we just have to find out if he's friend or foe.

[00:42:28]>> Hello, >> Mr. Hall. You know who I am, and I think it's time we had a sit down in a long conversation.

[00:42:37]Yes, Mrs. Wilson, I know who you are, and I'm looking forward to that sit down.

[00:42:47]Looks like the people at the top are finally starting to move.

[00:42:51]And when powerful people start moving, the whole city changes with them.
