Team of Ric are searching for Dr Martha, who had escaped from safe house. So Woman is talking on the phone to trace Dr Martha:

Woman: I'm seeing an FBI camera bin on my list here. No, no. Traffic only.

What does "camera bin" mean?

What does "Team of Ric" mean? Why did you capitalise "woman"? You need an article before "safe house" and "woman".

I mean Ric's team.
 
I mean Ric's team.

Why don't you post again (as a response) taking into account both of my questions in post #2 and adding the missing articles?
 
In this context, it seems to mean a computer file or folder. In this case, it contains a list of available camera feeds.

I haven't seen this film. Is the woman speaking an American? It seems odd for an American to use the term 'bin'.

Also, the Wikipedia entry suggests Martha is the doctor's first name. We don't use a formal title like 'Dr.' with a first name. It should be 'Dr. Shearing' or 'Dr. Martha Shearing'. Additionally, I think you mean 'Eric' instead of 'Ric'?

Edit: Also, I noticed her name is "Marta", not "Martha".

According to imdb.com, the doctor's first name is Marta, not Martha, and it's Colonel Eric Byer.
