Once inside, Walker handles the questioning, telling him they're looking for someone who worships there. "I knew the blame would eventually fall on us," Gohar says, as Kiefer wanders off to stare creepily through some screens. Walker hands Gohar a photo of Jibraan, but he takes it without looking at it and demands, "Why do you think he's a terrorist?" Walker makes the mistake of referring to Jibraan's profile (which Gohar translates as "Muslim"), but also mentions that Gohar is listed as Jibraan's personal reference. "Where someone worships is private information, protected by law!" Gohar says hotly, which is not how they found Gohar in the first place. I see his point, but that's not a strong argument he's using there. Walker says that right now she's more interested in stopping an attack, and repeats the question. "Look at the photo!" Kiefer yells from across the room after a pause. Gohar says he knows Jibraan, and knows he isn't a terrorist. "I know the man. He is not violent and he is not extremist." Kiefer is out of what little patience he came here with, and stomps over to the imam demanding to know where Jibraan lives and works. Gohar claims to know neither, but Kiefer isn't believing him. "And you expect me to believe you?" Gohar retorts. "I watched your hearing at the Senate. I know what you have done." Actually, dude, you don't know the half of it. "So tell me, why should I believe anything you say to me?" Kiefer gets right in his face and says Gohar doesn't have a choice, and plus it's the truth, too. "The truth is that you come into a house of worship with information you should not have [not really], an outrageous accusation, no legal warrant, and threaten me!" "I have not threatened you," Kiefer says threateningly, fooling no one. Seriously, you can practically hear him choking back the "yet." This could be about to get nasty, but luckily Walker's cell phone rings. It's Janis, telling Walker that the lead cop from earlier recognized Jibraan when the APB came out and called it in. "2700 Eastbrook, apartment 3." Walker tells Janis to put the building under surveillance and an FBI perimeter, and they'll be there in ten. She hangs up, telling Kiefer they have an address and it's time to go. But first, Kiefer insists on handcuffing the imam. "I'm not letting him call Al-Zarian before we get there. He's coming with us." Besides, it's not like he's about to let a reluctant source off the hook just because they don't need his information any more.
