Today's F.B.I. - Season 1 Episode 2 Hostage
The squad is called to a federal building when a cult like religious leader takes several people captive. Richard is willing to exchange his hostages for five convicts who killed his family so he can execute them. A religious extremist seizes control of a government building and threatens to harm hostages. In San Francisco, a local religious figure leads armed followers to occupy a federal office. Holding the staff captive, the religious leader requests that four inmates from San Quentin be handed over to him for execution. His belief system calls for retribution, as these four individuals had vandalized his church and killed his loved ones. Although the law had sentenced them to prison, he seeks their execution and intends to carry it out himself.
