Many of them contained the same photo
of the gunman with a hostage.

and the hostage in the photo were real,

but from a separate incident in 2013
at a medical facility in Ohio.

We also looked into the 14 accounts
that started everything.

Half the accounts belonged
to real employees of the hospital.

underneath it?

Based on The Troll Farmer's case files,

it's always a local crime

We locked down that whole hospital
for one guy's work badge?

Not to humblebrag,
but it's more than a badge.

00:08:31,110 --> 00:08:32,450
[Cooper] Do you need to take that?
177
00:08:32,650 --> 00:08:34,130
No, it's nothing. It's Herbie.
178
00:08:34,550 --> 00:08:37,330
As in Reddington's Herbie?
How does he have your number?
179
00:08:37,530 --> 00:08:40,370
The Dockery case.
He's been calling a lot, actually.
180
00:08:40,570 --> 00:08:42,540
So, he has a little thing for you.
181
00:08:42,740 --> 00:08:44,250
He has a thing for us.
182
00:08:44,450 --> 00:08:47,720
He keeps asking what we're working on,
if we need help with anything.
183
00:08:47,910 --> 00:08:48,880
He's very eager.
184
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,640
He means well,
but boundaries aren't his strong suit.
185
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,550
Agent Ressler, you were saying?
186
00:08:53,750 --> 00:08:56,640
Right. There were several 911 calls
in the area during the hoax.
187
00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,230
Two domestic disputes, a burglary,
and a fight at a local dive bar.
188
00:09:00,430 --> 00:09:04,150
One of the men assaulted at the bar fight
was treated at DC General.
189
00:09:04,350 --> 00:09:05,980
Which we thought may be related,
190
00:09:06,180 --> 00:09:08,860
but after we followed up,
it seemed like it was a personal matter.
191
00:09:09,060 --> 00:09:10,530
[Ressler] There's also this one.
192
00:09:10,730 --> 00:09:14,490
A janitor working at a building
next to DC General placed a 911 call.
193
00:09:14,690 --> 00:09:18,080
Saw someone suspicious using a tool
to get into a silver Audi on the lot.
194
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,120
The janitor gave the plate to the police,
but when they responded, the car was gone.
195
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,590
The police assumed the owner would report
if anything had been taken.
196
00:09:25,790 --> 00:09:29,010
Car belongs to a Graham Flynn, 42,
197
00:09:29,210 --> 00:09:30,300
of Bethesda.
198
00:09:30,500 --> 00:09:32,530
Senior aide to Congressman McFarley.
199
00:09:33,490 --> 00:09:35,600
He co-chairs the House
Select Intelligence Committee.
200
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,470
They oversee Defense
and National Security.
201
00:09:37,670 --> 00:09:39,930
That might make him
a worthy target for Wujing.
202
00:09:40,130 --> 00:09:41,980
Worthy of a car break-in? Why?
203
00:09:42,180 --> 00:09:45,060
[Cooper] I don't know, but Graham Flynn
is the best lead we've got,
204
00:09:45,260 --> 00:09:46,330
so go talk to him.
205
00:09:53,420 --> 00:09:55,320
Red? You in here?
206
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,370
[Reddington] I just had
the most magnificent steam.
207
00:09:59,570 --> 00:10:02,750
Does wonders for the lungs
and nasal passages.
208
00:10:02,950 --> 00:10:04,680
Not to mention my pores.
209
00:10:06,140 --> 00:10:08,670
Oh, yeah. You do have sort of a glow.
210
00:10:08,870 --> 00:10:11,880
We live in the age of self-care, Chuck.
You should try it.
211
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,400
It's also the age of technology. Here.
212
00:10:15,570 --> 00:10:17,450
[Reddington] I guess it was inevitable.
213
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,430
Call me old-fashioned, but lately,
214
00:10:20,630 --> 00:10:23,480
I prefer my interactions
to be face-to-face.
215
00:10:23,680 --> 00:10:26,940
Great. 'Cause I think
you need to pay our friend Phil a visit.
216
00:10:27,140 --> 00:10:29,150
Why? Was something wrong
with the shipment?
217
00:10:29,350 --> 00:10:33,280
Yeah, he refused to receive it,
hasn't paid us, and won't return my calls.
218
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,820
He needs to start construction
by the end of next week.
219
00:10:36,020 --> 00:10:37,570
He can't do that without materials.
220
00:10:37,770 --> 00:10:41,080
Does he realize how hard it is
to get steel right now?
221
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,430
And I called in a favor to fast-track it.
222
00:10:45,100 --> 00:10:47,750
- I'll go see him.
- Before you do, there's one more thing.
223
00:10:47,950 --> 00:10:49,340
Rogelio called.
224
00:10:49,540 --> 00:10:52,630
His network found the man
we've been looking for in New Orleans.
225
00:10:52,830 --> 00:10:54,630
Checked in to a hotel under an alias.
226
00:10:54,830 --> 00:10:57,220
Then you better get down
to The Big Easy and grab him
227
00:10:57,420 --> 00:10:58,890
before he goes underground again.
228
00:10:59,090 --> 00:11:00,430
Bring him to DC.
229
00:11:00,630 --> 00:11:04,080
I'll head down
after I pay a visit to Phil.
230
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,320
Mr. Thieman.
So glad we could make this work.
231
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,320
You do realize this is the first time
HexRoot's left the Pentagon.
232
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,200
Yes, and we appreciate your concerns.
233
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,370
But what is politics
without some pageantry?
234
00:11:19,570 --> 00:11:23,140
The committee is gathering right now
and looking forward to the presentation.
235
00:11:26,350 --> 00:11:27,810
- [machine beeps]
- [lock clicks]
236
00:11:30,980 --> 00:11:32,020
They're going up.
237
00:11:32,900 --> 00:11:35,510
Wujing made it very clear,
we have one shot.
238
00:11:35,710 --> 00:11:37,970
No second chances. Call the troll farm.
239
00:11:38,170 --> 00:11:39,240
Tell them it's time.
240
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,890
- [telephone rings]
- [Dembe] Malik, did you reach Flynn?
241
00:11:44,090 --> 00:11:46,100
I called to let him know
you're on your way to his office,
242
00:11:46,300 --> 00:11:47,480
but I got his assistant.
243
00:11:47,680 --> 00:11:50,610
She said Flynn's in a closed-door
intelligence committee meeting
244
00:11:50,810 --> 00:11:51,730
happening right now.
245
00:11:51,930 --> 00:11:54,360
So Chang broke into the vehicle
of a man attending
246
00:11:54,560 --> 00:11:56,530
a top-secret intelligence meeting today?
247
00:11:56,730 --> 00:11:57,610
That can't be good.
248
00:11:57,810 --> 00:12:00,160
It's taking place
at one of their satellite offices,
249
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,630
the Stevenson Building,
for security purposes.
250
00:12:03,390 --> 00:12:07,250
I'd like to start by expressing
our gratitude to the NSA, Mr. Thieman.
251
00:12:07,450 --> 00:12:12,170
As you know, we have requested
this demonstration for some time.
252
00:12:12,370 --> 00:12:14,050
Yes, and you've been very persistent.
253
00:12:14,250 --> 00:12:16,470
We've spent billions
developing the program.
254
00:12:16,660 --> 00:12:19,340
It would be irresponsible
not to have some oversight
255
00:12:19,540 --> 00:12:21,300
on the progress the agency's made.
256
00:12:21,500 --> 00:12:23,240
- You can understand that.
- Of course.
257
00:12:24,030 --> 00:12:26,200
So, without further ado,
258
00:12:26,950 --> 00:12:29,740
this is HexRoot.
259
00:12:30,620 --> 00:12:34,480
A world-class malware program
that targets supervisory control
260
00:12:34,680 --> 00:12:35,980
and data-acquisition systems.
261
00:12:36,180 --> 00:12:38,030
Now, it hones in on PLCs
262
00:12:38,230 --> 00:12:41,490
that allow for automation
of electro-mechanical processes.
263
00:12:41,690 --> 00:12:44,950
We've developed stealth programs
in a similar vein,
264
00:12:45,150 --> 00:12:46,750
but what makes HexRoot unique
265
00:12:46,950 --> 00:12:49,420
is it's deployable
from this mobile command-center unit
266
00:12:49,610 --> 00:12:51,130
and can be taken into the field.
267
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,670
I'm sorry to interrupt. I'm getting word
that we have a situation in the building.
268
00:12:54,870 --> 00:12:55,880
What kind of situation?
269
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,260
[alarm blaring]
270
00:12:58,460 --> 00:12:59,840
I've got an update, guys.
271
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,050
Reports of a massive fire
at the Stevenson Building.
272
00:13:03,250 --> 00:13:05,850
Or an explosion that started a fire.
It's unclear.
273
00:13:06,050 --> 00:13:07,220
I keep having to refresh.
274
00:13:07,420 --> 00:13:09,770
But social-media posts
are coming in one after another.
275
00:13:09,970 --> 00:13:11,440
I've reached out to fire and EMS,
276
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,150
they're treating it as a credible threat
until they're on the ground.
277
00:13:14,350 --> 00:13:15,900
- This has to be Chang.
- Has to be.
278
00:13:16,100 --> 00:13:18,990
Well, I'm watching live footage
of smoke coming out the windows.
279
00:13:19,190 --> 00:13:21,740
If it's another false-flag attack,
it's a convincing one.
280
00:13:21,940 --> 00:13:23,410
All right, we're two minutes out.
281
00:13:23,610 --> 00:13:25,240
Suspicious package? What?
282
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,240
How? Nobody even knows about this site.
283
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:28,410
I don't have details yet,
284
00:13:28,610 --> 00:13:30,960
but we're been told
to follow protocol and evacuate.
285
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,210
Committee members to the east stairwell.
NSA to the west stairwell.
286
00:13:34,410 --> 00:13:37,000
We're to stay outside the building
until Capitol Police arrive.
287
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,980
- This presentation is hereby suspended.
- For now. We'll find another time.
288
00:13:41,860 --> 00:13:43,530
[alarms blaring]
289
00:13:45,530 --> 00:13:47,720
- Restricted area!
- Officer, we need to get through here.
290
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,980
- I'm sorry. I can't allow that.
- We're with the NSA.
291
00:13:50,170 --> 00:13:51,850
We're operating
under a presidential directive.
292
00:13:52,050 --> 00:13:54,520
Now step aside or my men will move you.
293
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:55,810
Will they? Really?
294
00:13:56,010 --> 00:13:57,360
Hands away from your weapons!
Where we can see them!
295
00:13:57,560 --> 00:13:58,900
Hands high! Keep 'em high or we shoot!
296
00:13:59,100 --> 00:14:00,860
Lock your hands behind your head!
297
00:14:01,060 --> 00:14:04,800
- I can't put my hands behind my head!
- You'll be able to in a moment.
298
00:14:10,930 --> 00:14:12,930
[ominous music playing]
299
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,090
Excuse me. Agent Ressler, FBI.
300
00:14:24,290 --> 00:14:27,010
This is Agent Zuma.
We need to speak with you and your boss.
301
00:14:27,210 --> 00:14:30,990
He's on with the Secretary of Defense.
We're dealing with a crisis at the moment.
302
00:14:32,580 --> 00:14:33,580
[softly] I'll do it.
303
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:36,230
[softly] The FBI, sir.
304
00:14:36,430 --> 00:14:39,460
Mr. Congressman,
Agent Zuma, Agent Ressler, FBI.
305
00:14:40,170 --> 00:14:42,650
We have reason to believe
the purpose of this charade,
306
00:14:42,850 --> 00:14:45,450
the fire and explosion,
was to target your meeting.
307
00:14:45,650 --> 00:14:49,540
Our meeting today was classified.
Look, guys, I'm under the gun here--
308
00:14:49,730 --> 00:14:53,460
It's quite obvious that something critical
went down here today.
309
00:14:53,660 --> 00:14:56,420
The man behind these events today
is highly dangerous.
310
00:14:56,620 --> 00:14:58,630
We know he was after something here.
311
00:14:58,830 --> 00:15:00,100
We just don't know what.
312
00:15:03,690 --> 00:15:05,680
He was after HexRoot.
313
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:07,720
- HexRoot?
- It's a new cyber weapon.
314
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:09,680
Our meeting was with the NSA.
315
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,270
They were about to demonstrate
HexRoot's capabilities
316
00:15:12,470 --> 00:15:13,600
when all hell broke loose.
317
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:17,310
In the chaos, the NSA team was ambushed,
the weapon stolen.
318
00:15:17,510 --> 00:15:19,690
The fact that it's gone is catastrophic.
319
00:15:19,890 --> 00:15:21,900
Can you tell us more about HexRoot?
320
00:15:22,100 --> 00:15:24,240
[Graham] HexRoot
is next-gen military tech.
321
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,780
It'll saw through any cyber defense
and hide inside any computer network.
322
00:15:27,980 --> 00:15:29,410
And now it's out in the world?
323
00:15:29,610 --> 00:15:30,630
I mean, that's just...
324
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,120
- You know what? Never mind.
- [McFarley] It's okay, Agent Ressler.
325
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:35,750
I understand your point of view.
326
00:15:35,950 --> 00:15:39,040
But the next World War,
it's gonna be a cyber war.
327
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,300
And this nation needs to do what it takes
328
00:15:41,490 --> 00:15:44,650
to defend itself
against the global conflict to come.
329
00:15:45,860 --> 00:15:47,900
That was the whole idea behind HexRoot.
330
00:15:48,740 --> 00:15:51,760
- The NSA team, where are they now?
- With building security.
331
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,160
Trying to get a lead on who attacked them.

00:15:57,330 --> 00:15:59,400

334
00:16:03,830 --> 00:16:05,210
[Reddington] Hello, Phillip.
335
00:16:06,460 --> 00:16:08,030
Reddington.
336
00:16:08,230 --> 00:16:10,420
- How'd you find me?
- [chuckles]
337
00:16:12,050 --> 00:16:14,160
Phil, you're as predictable
as the demographic
338
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,390
in one of the city's
most pretentious men's clubs.
339
00:16:18,430 --> 00:16:22,940
A predictability I'd grown to appreciate
in our years of doing business.
340
00:16:24,020 --> 00:16:26,970
So imagine my surprise
when you failed to pay me
341
00:16:27,170 --> 00:16:30,970
and rejected my shipment
for the first time in... 17 years?
342
00:16:31,170 --> 00:16:35,780
I know. But I'm between
a rock and a hard place.
343
00:16:36,450 --> 00:16:39,690
Really? It's actually
quite comfortable here.
344
00:16:39,890 --> 00:16:42,230
Little bit stuffy. Bit stale.
345
00:16:42,430 --> 00:16:45,820
People keep telling me
that you've cozied up to the feds.
346
00:16:46,020 --> 00:16:48,650
I'm concerned.
I don't want to believe them.
347
00:16:48,850 --> 00:16:50,210
Well, perhaps you should.
348
00:16:51,340 --> 00:16:52,800
Because I have.
349
00:16:54,180 --> 00:16:57,700
I also work with assets from the Mossad,
350
00:16:57,900 --> 00:17:01,750
MI6, CIA, FSB.
351
00:17:01,950 --> 00:17:03,880
I have judges in my pocket.
352
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,270
People in police departments
from New York to New Delhi.
353
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,110
The way they were talking
about the FBI, though,
354
00:17:12,610 --> 00:17:13,970
it was different.
355
00:17:14,170 --> 00:17:15,600
People were insinuating
356
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,560
that you were handing people over
to a secret task force.
357
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,650
That... That some of my own associates
358
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,250
have gone to federal prison
directly because of you.
359
00:17:26,830 --> 00:17:28,440
When I was a child,
360
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:32,030
I spent many summers
at my grandmother's farm.
361
00:17:32,230 --> 00:17:36,830
She kept pigs, chickens,
and some cows, sheep.
362
00:17:37,030 --> 00:17:40,600
And there was this one little goat, Belka.
363
00:17:42,430 --> 00:17:44,890
Poor thing had only one eye.
364
00:17:45,850 --> 00:17:49,810
My grandmother thought she was hideous,
but I took quite a shine to her.
365
00:17:52,030 --> 00:17:53,760
Those summers were...
366
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:55,800
[breathes deeply]
367
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,450
paradise.
368
00:17:58,620 --> 00:18:01,330
And my grandmother gave me free rein.
369
00:18:02,830 --> 00:18:04,200
She had only one rule:
370
00:18:05,210 --> 00:18:07,080
stay out of the green shed.
371
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:12,300
Year after year,
I thought and thought of that shed.
372
00:18:15,090 --> 00:18:18,680
I dreamed and nightmared of the place.
373
00:18:20,010 --> 00:18:21,850
What could possibly be in there?
374
00:18:23,140 --> 00:18:25,140
What sort of secrets did it hold?
375
00:18:25,850 --> 00:18:27,350
And who went in there?
376
00:18:28,350 --> 00:18:29,480
And when?
377
00:18:29,980 --> 00:18:30,980
Why?
378
00:18:32,270 --> 00:18:34,980
Well, one day,
379
00:18:36,070 --> 00:18:39,240
Belka went missing.
380
00:18:41,450 --> 00:18:43,410
Must have gotten out of her pen.
381
00:18:45,410 --> 00:18:47,060
And I looked.
382
00:18:47,260 --> 00:18:49,580
I looked all over the property.
383
00:18:51,500 --> 00:18:53,320
It was getting late.
384
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:54,920
Getting dark.
385
00:18:55,630 --> 00:18:59,050
And then I heard it,
her familiar little bleat.
386
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,640
And it was coming from the shed.
387
00:19:05,390 --> 00:19:07,500
I don't know how she got there,
388
00:19:07,700 --> 00:19:11,600
but I screwed up my courage
and pulled open the door.
389
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,280
Do you know what was in that shed?
390
00:19:18,530 --> 00:19:19,820
No.
391
00:19:21,070 --> 00:19:22,120
Nothing.
392
00:19:24,120 --> 00:19:25,830
Literally nothing but a little hay.
393
00:19:27,330 --> 00:19:28,910
And Belka, of course.
394
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:32,650
All that fear
395
00:19:32,850 --> 00:19:35,200
and trepidation,
396
00:19:35,390 --> 00:19:36,840
anticipation
397
00:19:38,670 --> 00:19:39,720
for nothing.
398
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:46,080
Tell yourself all the stories
you want to about me, Phil,
399
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,680
but there's nothing there
except a one-eyed goat.
400
00:19:51,230 --> 00:19:52,650
Still getting rich?
401
00:19:53,810 --> 00:19:54,860
Of course.
402
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:57,400
And I appreciate it.
403
00:19:58,070 --> 00:20:01,390
Do you understand
the competitive advantage I offer?
404
00:20:01,590 --> 00:20:05,850
Steel, wood, cement at close to cost.
405
00:20:06,050 --> 00:20:09,060
Expedited shipments
when supply-chain issues
406
00:20:09,260 --> 00:20:12,330
are delaying projects for months,
if not years.
407
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,690
How long has it been
since you've had a labor problem?
408
00:20:15,890 --> 00:20:17,780
I know all you've done for me.
409
00:20:17,980 --> 00:20:19,670
Then stop worrying about the feds.
410
00:20:22,260 --> 00:20:26,290
I have a soft spot in my heart
for the sort of development you do.
411
00:20:26,490 --> 00:20:28,080
But make no mistake,
412
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,890
you can't do it the way you do it
413
00:20:33,270 --> 00:20:34,310
without me.
414
00:20:37,020 --> 00:20:39,400
I expect full payment by tomorrow morning.
415
00:20:40,570 --> 00:20:42,760
And if something like this
ever happens again,
416
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,450
it won't end with a polite conversation.
417
00:20:48,660 --> 00:20:50,370
I have a train to catch.
418
00:20:58,340 --> 00:21:00,780
We're still on the ground here,
but we're making progress.
419
00:21:00,980 --> 00:21:03,490
I'm coordinating with the Capitol Police
and the building security.
420
00:21:03,690 --> 00:21:06,490
We confirmed why Chang
targeted Graham Flynn.
421
00:21:06,690 --> 00:21:10,000
Chang used Flynn's work credentials
to access a secure entrance.
422
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,920
That's where he ambushed
the NSA officer and his guards.
423
00:21:13,120 --> 00:21:14,420
How'd he get the credentials?
424
00:21:14,620 --> 00:21:17,880
We assume that he cloned them somehow.
It's all within his skill set.
425
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,130
That's why he broke into Flynn's car.
Remember, nothing was "stolen."
426
00:21:21,330 --> 00:21:23,390
So we know how Wujing
orchestrated the attack
427
00:21:23,590 --> 00:21:24,970
and what he wanted, but why?
428
00:21:25,170 --> 00:21:26,060
Why not?
429
00:21:26,260 --> 00:21:28,640
That thing they stole
is a digital nuclear bomb.
430
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,150
It can destroy anything,
people, corporations, governments.
431
00:21:32,340 --> 00:21:33,560
That's worth a lot of money.
432
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,360
I find it hard to believe
Wujing's motivation was purely financial.
433
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,460
What would he use that device for?
434
00:21:39,340 --> 00:21:42,070
- It's Malik and Cooper.
- Sorry to interrupt, but this can't wait.
435
00:21:42,270 --> 00:21:46,200
The NSA officer just informed me
that there's a concealed geo-locator
436
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,290
embedded inside the metal case
that contains the HexRoot.
437
00:21:49,490 --> 00:21:50,540
Well, that's convenient.
438
00:21:50,740 --> 00:21:52,710
[Ressler] Leave it to the NSA
to hide tech within their tech.
439
00:21:52,910 --> 00:21:55,460
Now I don't suppose
they're gonna share that location with us?
440
00:21:55,660 --> 00:21:58,090
No. But I saw the coordinates
on the computer screen.
441
00:21:58,290 --> 00:21:59,380
I texted them to you.
442
00:21:59,580 --> 00:22:01,840
They're assembling a team to move in
by the end of the hour.
443
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:03,970
We need to move fast
if we want to beat them there.
444
00:22:04,170 --> 00:22:05,050
Can we?
445
00:22:05,250 --> 00:22:07,510
You mean outfox the NSA foxes?
446
00:22:07,710 --> 00:22:09,060
I believe we can.
447
00:22:09,260 --> 00:22:11,580
Let's get a tac team
to that location immediately.
448
00:22:16,410 --> 00:22:18,400
- [door closes]
- [lock clicks]
449
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,530
[sighs] What's going on?
450
00:22:20,730 --> 00:22:22,570
Let's see what we got here.
451
00:22:22,770 --> 00:22:24,860
Extra-spicy burrito, no rice.
452
00:22:25,060 --> 00:22:27,180
- You get jalapenos on mine?
- Uh-huh.
453
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,620
- FBI!
- FBI! Hands where we can see them!
454
00:22:29,820 --> 00:22:31,750
[agents shouting indistinctly]
455
00:22:31,950 --> 00:22:32,890
[grunts]
456
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,580
Mr. Chang, we meet again.
457
00:22:36,780 --> 00:22:38,730
[dramatic music playing]
458
00:22:51,450 --> 00:22:53,530
[elevator door opens]
459
00:22:55,330 --> 00:22:56,440
What is this place?
460
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:57,790
Oh, just the office.
461
00:22:58,710 --> 00:23:00,860
Harold Cooper, FBI.
462
00:23:01,060 --> 00:23:01,990
Rod Thieman, NSA.
463
00:23:02,180 --> 00:23:04,360
What, uh, exactly
does your task force do here?
464
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:05,950
I'm afraid that's classified.
465
00:23:06,150 --> 00:23:09,620
We operate under special authority
from the Attorney General.
466
00:23:09,820 --> 00:23:12,160
I'm sure you can appreciate
the need for discretion.
467
00:23:12,360 --> 00:23:16,170
Well, whatever it is, you, uh...
you obviously must be very good at it.
468
00:23:16,370 --> 00:23:19,250
You beat us
to our own classified super weapon.
469
00:23:19,450 --> 00:23:21,670
We have a team examining
Chang's hard drives
470
00:23:21,870 --> 00:23:24,090
to see if the program
was uploaded or compromised.
471
00:23:24,290 --> 00:23:26,220
- [cell phone vibrating]
- Could be them now.
472
00:23:26,420 --> 00:23:27,360
Nope.
473
00:23:28,610 --> 00:23:29,990
[whispers] Herbie.
474
00:23:30,910 --> 00:23:34,080
So, uh, who exactly
is this Chang character anyway?
475
00:23:34,990 --> 00:23:35,940
MIT grad.
476
00:23:36,140 --> 00:23:39,480
Started his career as a security engineer
for GetToGather.net.
477
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,610
Now he creates social-media events
to commit crimes.
478
00:23:42,810 --> 00:23:46,030
But he's never done anything close
to stealing an NSA weapon before.
479
00:23:46,230 --> 00:23:48,870
He a solo act, or you think
he's working for someone else?
480
00:23:49,060 --> 00:23:50,620
Your guess is as good as mine.
481
00:23:50,820 --> 00:23:54,200
We know you're working with Wujing.
We know you stole HexRoot for him.
482
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,140
But what we don't know is why.
483
00:23:57,310 --> 00:23:58,540
Agent Ressler.
484
00:23:58,740 --> 00:24:00,140
I thought you looked familiar.
485
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:02,900
You ruined my life.
486
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,110
I'm pretty sure
you did that all on your own.
487
00:24:07,150 --> 00:24:08,680
And you...
488
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,890
I guess we both got tired
of working for Reddington, huh?
489
00:24:12,090 --> 00:24:13,470
The feds, though?
490
00:24:13,670 --> 00:24:14,870
Really, Dembe?
491
00:24:15,620 --> 00:24:17,740
You can address me as Agent Zuma.
492
00:24:18,700 --> 00:24:21,020
You wanna know why
I got on board with Wujing?
493
00:24:21,220 --> 00:24:22,170
Reddington.
494
00:24:23,620 --> 00:24:25,960
I was on retainer with that man
for three years.
495
00:24:26,590 --> 00:24:28,820
Did some of my best work with him, too.
496
00:24:29,020 --> 00:24:33,580
I got him and Elizabeth Keen out of DC
in the middle of a national manhunt.
497
00:24:33,780 --> 00:24:34,790
And how'd he repay me?
498
00:24:34,990 --> 00:24:37,850
By giving up me and my entire team to you.
499
00:24:39,850 --> 00:24:41,540
He's a snake.
500
00:24:41,740 --> 00:24:43,710
What makes you think
Reddington gave you up?
501
00:24:43,910 --> 00:24:46,340
Oh, no. No, no, no, no.
502
00:24:46,540 --> 00:24:48,170
I am not playing that game.
503
00:24:48,370 --> 00:24:50,470
We both know who you people
really work for.
504
00:24:50,670 --> 00:24:52,820
Why does Wujing want HexRoot?
505
00:24:54,360 --> 00:24:55,850
I got nothing else to say.
506
00:24:56,050 --> 00:24:58,030
You tell that to Reddington and his hat.
507
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,000
That damn hat.
508
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:04,960
When I saw it, I couldn't resist.
509
00:25:06,500 --> 00:25:08,710
- There you go.
- [Herbie chuckles]
510
00:25:09,630 --> 00:25:11,530
She looks just like you.
511
00:25:11,730 --> 00:25:12,700
[both laugh]
512
00:25:12,900 --> 00:25:15,790
I wasn't expecting you today.
You need a place to crash tonight?
513
00:25:15,990 --> 00:25:18,960
No, no, no.
This isn't purely a social call.
514
00:25:19,150 --> 00:25:23,210
- Harold Cooper reached out to me.
- Harold? I love that guy.
515
00:25:23,410 --> 00:25:24,540
He's so regal.
516
00:25:24,740 --> 00:25:27,590
And firm. And there's a little softness
to him, you know?
517
00:25:27,790 --> 00:25:29,720
That's all very... specific.
518
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,070
He told me you've been calling Ms. Malik.
519
00:25:32,820 --> 00:25:34,180
Obsessively.
520
00:25:34,380 --> 00:25:35,910
Did he actually use that word?
521
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:39,560
I blew it, didn't I?
522
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,790
What is your aim here?
523
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:44,440
I gotta get outta the house.
524
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,610
All my work is done at an arm's length.
525
00:25:46,810 --> 00:25:49,030
No one wants me on a crime scene
or in a courtroom
526
00:25:49,230 --> 00:25:51,570
after everything that happened.
527
00:25:51,770 --> 00:25:53,510
And working with them,
528
00:25:54,340 --> 00:25:57,700
for a moment, I felt like I was back
in the game again. On a team.
529
00:25:57,900 --> 00:26:00,410
And, oh, that whole secret hideout
where they work?
530
00:26:00,610 --> 00:26:02,750
With the blacked-out van
and the cool goggles?
531
00:26:02,950 --> 00:26:04,250
It was all so exciting.
532
00:26:04,450 --> 00:26:07,710
You really want this, don't you, Herbie?
A full-time job?
533
00:26:07,910 --> 00:26:09,260
I do.
534
00:26:09,460 --> 00:26:13,550
I mean, not, like, full full-time.
I have Sue. And my foosball and stuff.
535
00:26:13,750 --> 00:26:16,200
But, yes, mostly full-time.
536
00:26:16,820 --> 00:26:18,140
When I can, of course.
537
00:26:18,340 --> 00:26:19,890
If you get the chance to speak to Harold,
538
00:26:20,090 --> 00:26:22,940
I wouldn't lead
with all the other obligations.
539
00:26:23,140 --> 00:26:25,060
Well, since I don't have his phone number,
540
00:26:25,260 --> 00:26:27,770
and I get the strong feeling
he might not want me to have it,
541
00:26:27,970 --> 00:26:31,070
the next time youspeak to Harold,
could you put in a good word?
542
00:26:31,270 --> 00:26:33,400
- [Sue coos]
- [sniffs] Is that...
543
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,490
Poop, yes. Right on schedule.
544
00:26:35,690 --> 00:26:37,970
It really does define your day,
doesn't it?
545
00:26:38,590 --> 00:26:39,660
Perfectly.
546
00:26:39,860 --> 00:26:41,290
All right. Come here.
547
00:26:41,490 --> 00:26:43,600
[Sue coos]
548
00:26:46,980 --> 00:26:48,210
He won't talk.
549
00:26:48,410 --> 00:26:50,050
He's too afraid.
550
00:26:50,250 --> 00:26:51,170
What, of Wujing?
551
00:26:51,370 --> 00:26:52,470
Afraid of Raymond.
552
00:26:52,660 --> 00:26:54,760
Well, it doesn't matter.
We need to keep working on him.
553
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,800
We need to figure out
why Wujing stole HexRoot.
554
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,070
I mean,
it's obviously part of a larger plan.
555
00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:03,830
Maybe we don't need Chang
to talk to us to figure it out.
556
00:27:04,660 --> 00:27:06,520
Why? What are you thinking?
557
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:11,190
Wujing broke The Freelancer out of custody
to come after the task force last week.
558
00:27:11,390 --> 00:27:12,280
Why?
559
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,030
To gather photographic evidence,
560
00:27:14,230 --> 00:27:16,070
proof of Reddington's connection
to our team.
561
00:27:16,270 --> 00:27:19,200
And now there's another Blacklister
with a grudge against us
562
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:20,830
sent out by Wujing.
563
00:27:21,030 --> 00:27:23,200
Stands to reason he's after the same goal.
564
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:24,640
To find more proof.
565
00:27:25,810 --> 00:27:27,330
Look at the object that he stole.
566
00:27:27,530 --> 00:27:30,850
A virus that covertly invades
and controls a computer system.
567
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:32,900
Our computer system.
568
00:27:33,650 --> 00:27:36,220
With all our case files
and questionable tactics.
569
00:27:36,420 --> 00:27:40,110
Not to mention the immunity agreement
that Raymond has with Main Justice.
570
00:27:41,030 --> 00:27:44,700
Can you imagine if all of that came out?
I can see the national headlines now.
571
00:27:45,660 --> 00:27:47,310
With our faces right below them.
572
00:27:47,510 --> 00:27:49,110
Okay, I buy it.
573
00:27:49,300 --> 00:27:51,020
I just have one more question.
574
00:27:51,220 --> 00:27:52,110
[door opens]
575
00:27:52,310 --> 00:27:53,190
Where's the drop?
576
00:27:53,390 --> 00:27:54,360
We know you stole HexRoot,
577
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,710
so what's the plan
to get the device to Wujing?
578
00:27:57,760 --> 00:27:58,910
What's in it for me?
579
00:27:59,110 --> 00:28:03,370
How about survival?
That's if we're in bed with Reddington,
580
00:28:03,570 --> 00:28:04,870
- as you suggest.
- Which we're not.
581
00:28:05,070 --> 00:28:07,250
Then everything said in this room
would get back to him.
582
00:28:07,450 --> 00:28:10,840
Including the fact that you helped
his task force capture Wujing.
583
00:28:11,030 --> 00:28:13,210
That assistance may just be enough
584
00:28:13,410 --> 00:28:16,470
to keep you alive in prison
and safe from Reddington's retribution.
585
00:28:16,670 --> 00:28:19,140
I mean, that's if the task force
works with Reddington.
586
00:28:19,330 --> 00:28:20,280
Which it doesn't.
587
00:28:24,990 --> 00:28:26,600
The drop's today at 4:00.
588
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:28,370
Madison Park in Northeast.
589
00:28:29,250 --> 00:28:32,070
You just make sure Reddington
finds out that I'm helping you.
590
00:28:32,260 --> 00:28:33,480
[door closes]
591
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,440
[Siya] These are
satellite shots of the park.
592
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,200
Plenty of places to hide a team.
593
00:28:37,390 --> 00:28:40,450
Do you think Wujing will make
an appearance to retrieve the device?
594
00:28:40,650 --> 00:28:43,740
Chang seemed to think so.
He's agreed to assist in our operation.
595
00:28:43,940 --> 00:28:45,200
Should we involve Raymond?
596
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,330
We know Reddington's endgame here.
597
00:28:47,530 --> 00:28:50,290
It's not our job to aid and abet him
in murdering Wujing.
598
00:28:50,490 --> 00:28:53,130
Our job is to arrest a criminal,
stop a war,
599
00:28:53,330 --> 00:28:54,800
and to protect this task force.
600
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,800
I want a surveillance plan
for Madison Park in the next hour.
601
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,890
If Wujing shows up, this ends today.
602
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,030
[tense music playing]
603
00:29:09,790 --> 00:29:12,770
[device beeps]
604
00:29:12,970 --> 00:29:14,980
You all good?
You understand how that wire works?
605
00:29:15,180 --> 00:29:17,240
I do. But I wouldn't say I'm "all good."
606
00:29:17,430 --> 00:29:19,280
I can't believe
I'm working for Reddington again.
607
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,910
You're not. You're working for the FBI.
608
00:29:22,110 --> 00:29:25,280
Again with the charade?
Just own it already, man.
609
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:26,620
[Ressler] It's a duplicate case.
610
00:29:26,820 --> 00:29:30,710
All the electronics are non-functional,
so don't open it up during the handoff.
611
00:29:30,910 --> 00:29:33,380
[over intercom]
Let's go over this thing one more time.
612
00:29:33,580 --> 00:29:34,670
[button clicks]
613
00:29:34,870 --> 00:29:36,170
You think he can handle this?
614
00:29:36,370 --> 00:29:41,130
He engineered and executed a plan
to steal a top-secret weapon from the NSA.
615
00:29:41,330 --> 00:29:42,640
He'll be okay.
616
00:29:42,830 --> 00:29:44,320
Can I be candid with you?
617
00:29:45,950 --> 00:29:49,430
I was a bit thrown off
by Cooper's decision
618
00:29:49,630 --> 00:29:52,060
not to tell Reddington
about the meeting with Wujing.
619
00:29:52,260 --> 00:29:53,980
Aren't we supposed to be a team?
620
00:29:54,180 --> 00:29:57,190
How can this task force function
if you're hiding things from him?
621
00:29:57,390 --> 00:29:59,070
Raymond hides things, as well.
622
00:29:59,270 --> 00:30:02,760
If you don't trust him,
and he doesn't trust the task force,
623
00:30:03,460 --> 00:30:07,620
how can you possibly make criminal cases
based on his information?
624
00:30:07,820 --> 00:30:09,700
It sounds dysfunctional,
625
00:30:09,900 --> 00:30:11,910
but I have faith
626
00:30:12,110 --> 00:30:14,850
that Raymond wants good things
to happen to good people.
627
00:30:15,730 --> 00:30:17,840
You two were so close before.
628
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,840
Must be strange
keeping things from him now.
629
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,590
We keep things from each other
to protecteach other.
630
00:30:24,790 --> 00:30:27,320
It's a healthy mistrust,
and I trust in that, too.
631
00:30:28,110 --> 00:30:29,720
[sighs]
632
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:33,770
I have to think this place
would have driven my mother mad.
633
00:30:33,970 --> 00:30:36,460
She was so black-and-white.
634
00:30:39,380 --> 00:30:43,820
You think she ever had second thoughts
about working with him?
635
00:30:44,020 --> 00:30:45,820
I'm sure she did.
636
00:30:46,020 --> 00:30:49,330
We all do. It comes with the territory.
637
00:30:49,530 --> 00:30:52,710
But your mother was very guarded.
She kept a lot of things to herself.
638
00:30:52,900 --> 00:30:54,540
You mean, what, like secrets?
639
00:30:54,740 --> 00:30:57,130
Raymond would know better than I do.
640
00:30:57,330 --> 00:30:59,300
He did his own vetting when Diane Fowler
641
00:30:59,490 --> 00:31:02,010
put your mother on the task force
all those years ago.
642
00:31:02,210 --> 00:31:03,570
I don't know the details,
643
00:31:04,650 --> 00:31:07,140
but I always got the impression
that he knew something
644
00:31:07,340 --> 00:31:08,860
about everyone's past.
645
00:31:10,030 --> 00:31:12,020
- [knocking on door]
- [door opens]
646
00:31:12,220 --> 00:31:13,830
We're all set. Let's go.
647
00:31:16,910 --> 00:31:19,940
- Do we have an update?
- [Chuck] Our man from New Orleans landed.
648
00:31:20,140 --> 00:31:22,400
I don't think you'll have time
to see him beforehand,
649
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:24,820
but, uh, he's agreed to do the job.
650
00:31:25,020 --> 00:31:27,200
That'll be fine.
As long as everything's on schedule.
651
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:29,580
We'll reconvene after. I have to go.
652
00:31:29,780 --> 00:31:30,930
[cell phone clicks]
653
00:31:32,220 --> 00:31:33,600
[knocking]
654
00:31:37,180 --> 00:31:39,020
- Hi, Agnes.
- Hey, Pinkie.
655
00:31:40,190 --> 00:31:41,800
You doing some cooking?
656
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:43,460
Well, I'm doing something.
657
00:31:43,660 --> 00:31:45,380
I'm not sure if you'd call it cooking.
658
00:31:45,580 --> 00:31:46,800
Is Harold around?
659
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,350
He's still at work,
and Mom's out running an errand.
660
00:31:49,540 --> 00:31:51,140
They leave you home alone?
661
00:31:51,340 --> 00:31:52,680
I can handle myself.
662
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,890
I'm sure you can.
Something smells delightful.
663
00:31:56,090 --> 00:31:57,440
What are you baking here?
664
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,360
- That's a complicated question.
- [chuckles]
665
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,670
Here, try this.
666
00:32:06,090 --> 00:32:07,990
It's awful, right?
667
00:32:08,190 --> 00:32:11,430
No. I mean, it leaves
a little something to be desired.
668
00:32:12,590 --> 00:32:13,890
[sniffs] What's in it?
669
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,620
Or perhaps it's something
that's not in it that should be.
670
00:32:17,820 --> 00:32:19,460
Yeah, probably.
671
00:32:19,660 --> 00:32:21,880
I was trying to make
a baking video for my vlog,
672
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,360
and this is my third try.
673
00:32:24,860 --> 00:32:27,470
It'd be pretty shady
to demo bad chocolate cake.
674
00:32:27,670 --> 00:32:32,970
You know, Julia Child didn't graduate
from Le Cordon Bleu until she was 39.
675
00:32:33,170 --> 00:32:36,810
In fact, she even failed
her first exam there.
676
00:32:37,010 --> 00:32:38,540
Practice makes perfect.
677
00:32:39,750 --> 00:32:44,780
And sometimes, a little assistance
doesn't hurt, either. May I?
678
00:32:44,980 --> 00:32:46,170
Of course.
679
00:32:48,380 --> 00:32:50,990
Let's turn that off, just while I'm here.
680
00:32:51,190 --> 00:32:53,450
That sort of defeats
the purpose of a vlog.
681
00:32:53,650 --> 00:32:55,120
It stands for "video blog."
682
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:59,060
And you can record
to your heart's content once I leave.
683
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,690
Okay. Let's look at this recipe.
684
00:33:06,980 --> 00:33:09,020
Everything's in this bowl.
685
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,140
More information
on the espresso powder below.
686
00:33:13,340 --> 00:33:14,390
[Agnes laughs]
687
00:33:14,590 --> 00:33:15,780
[chuckles]
688
00:33:18,030 --> 00:33:19,540
Hmm.
689
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:24,360
You're still missing
two crucial ingredients.
690
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:29,320
- A little moresugar, just that amount.
- Okay.
691
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:30,880
And also...
692
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:36,540
- Uh, we don't have any fancy...
- Ah.
693
00:33:36,740 --> 00:33:39,330
European kind of stuff,
if that's what you...
694
00:33:39,530 --> 00:33:40,750
- Mayo?
- [chuckles]
695
00:33:40,950 --> 00:33:42,040
In chocolate cake?
696
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:43,540
But that's disgusting.
697
00:33:43,740 --> 00:33:48,510
No, it gives it
the perfect level of moisture...
698
00:33:48,710 --> 00:33:50,260
There we go.
699
00:33:50,460 --> 00:33:51,610
And richness.
700
00:33:54,070 --> 00:33:55,110
Ugh.
701
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:57,490
The key
702
00:33:58,490 --> 00:34:02,140
is to fold the ingredients
together gently.
703
00:34:02,340 --> 00:34:03,440
When we're done,
704
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:07,190
if this isn't the most decadent cake
you've everhad,
705
00:34:07,390 --> 00:34:13,300
I will personally fly you to Vienna
for a Sachertorte at the Caf Demel.
706
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:17,580
The world's most famous chocolate cake,
707
00:34:17,780 --> 00:34:21,140
and its history is rife with controversy.
708
00:34:21,850 --> 00:34:27,520
It all began in 1832 with a prince.
709
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,050
[Ressler] Well,
there's still no sign of Wujing.
710
00:34:34,250 --> 00:34:36,860
[Dembe] Wasn't he supposed to be here
five minutes ago?
711
00:34:39,110 --> 00:34:41,580
I'm gonna see if I can get a closer look.
712
00:34:50,290 --> 00:34:53,490
Should I stay here?
Something doesn't feel right.
713
00:34:53,690 --> 00:34:55,360
Wujing's never late.
714
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:56,590
Hold your position.
715
00:35:03,010 --> 00:35:06,540
Knit cap. Black jacket, boots.
My eight o'clock.
716
00:35:06,740 --> 00:35:08,350
Approaching Chang from behind.
717
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,060
I'm here to pick up the package.
718
00:35:12,820 --> 00:35:14,110
It's The Freelancer.
719
00:35:15,110 --> 00:35:16,340
Veseli?
720
00:35:16,540 --> 00:35:18,100
What's he doing here?
721
00:35:18,300 --> 00:35:19,470
[Siya] Should we move in?
722
00:35:19,670 --> 00:35:20,810
What if Wujing is here?
723
00:35:21,010 --> 00:35:23,580
Shouldn't we stand fast
until he reveals himself?
724
00:35:28,500 --> 00:35:31,650
No, we can't wait.
We need to move in now. Now!
725
00:35:31,850 --> 00:35:32,780
What are you doing, man?
726
00:35:32,980 --> 00:35:35,490
What are you doing? What's going on?
727
00:35:35,690 --> 00:35:37,210
[footsteps approaching]
728
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:43,550
FBI! Stop!
729
00:35:44,970 --> 00:35:46,420
[grunts]
730
00:35:46,620 --> 00:35:47,850
[scooter revs]
731
00:35:54,900 --> 00:35:56,650
[both grunt]
732
00:36:08,620 --> 00:36:09,750
[tires screech]
733
00:36:10,710 --> 00:36:12,080
Get in!
734
00:36:13,290 --> 00:36:15,950
- [engine revs]
- [tires screech]
735
00:36:16,140 --> 00:36:17,150
Was that...
736
00:36:17,350 --> 00:36:19,820
Richard Deever. My former colleague.
737
00:36:20,020 --> 00:36:21,800
[Dembe] He's still working for Wujing?
738
00:36:27,890 --> 00:36:30,420
For the record, that whole thing
at the park, not my fault.
739
00:36:30,620 --> 00:36:33,210
- You'll tell Reddington I tried, right?
- [sighs] Walk.
740
00:36:33,410 --> 00:36:35,340
[Siya] I can't believe it was Deever.
741
00:36:35,540 --> 00:36:38,010
I would've strangled him
with my bare hands if I could.
742
00:36:38,210 --> 00:36:41,030
I can't say I can blame you.
I mean, the guy did shoot you.
743
00:36:41,820 --> 00:36:46,240
I'm so sorry. Seems my old pal Deever's
made a career of absconding with Veseli.
744
00:36:46,830 --> 00:36:49,100
- Do we have any leads?
- The BOLO is out.
745
00:36:49,300 --> 00:36:51,400
Including a description of his sedan.
746
00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,080
We got every law-enforcement officer in DC
looking for him.
747
00:36:59,130 --> 00:37:00,740
We need to ditch this car.
748
00:37:00,940 --> 00:37:03,280
They're onto us.
They're morethan onto us.
749
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:07,140
Relax. We don't have far to travel,
and we'll be safer there.
750
00:37:10,350 --> 00:37:11,850
Surprised to see you pull up.
751
00:37:13,140 --> 00:37:15,250
Didn't know you were
still working for Wujing.
752
00:37:15,450 --> 00:37:18,760
I'm the reason why Wujing knows
about the NSA weapon in the first place.
753
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:20,820
They were developing it
while I was at the CIA.
754
00:37:21,530 --> 00:37:24,760
Once I found out they were planning on
bringing it before the board,
755
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,100
I knew it was his chance to make a move.
756
00:37:27,300 --> 00:37:29,740
Wujing asked me to keep an eye
on the drop as backup.
757
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:33,000
Well, I'm glad you were there to grab me.
758
00:37:34,330 --> 00:37:36,820
Though I'm a little panicked
as to what's gonna happen
759
00:37:37,020 --> 00:37:39,290
when I show up to Wujing's empty-handed.
760
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:44,070
It'll be fine.
761
00:37:44,270 --> 00:37:45,550
He's just this way.
762
00:37:49,140 --> 00:37:50,470
Hello, Alban.
763
00:37:53,310 --> 00:37:55,000
Can I go now? I did what you asked.
764
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:56,350
Not so fast.
765
00:37:57,810 --> 00:38:01,050
That was our deal. You said
if I brought him in, you would let me go.
766
00:38:01,250 --> 00:38:02,760
I never said I'd let you go.
767
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:04,570
I said I'd let you live.
768
00:38:16,250 --> 00:38:18,000
[cell phone vibrating]
769
00:38:22,170 --> 00:38:23,110
Ms. Malik.
770
00:38:23,310 --> 00:38:27,030
How are you enjoying your time
with the task force so far?
771
00:38:27,230 --> 00:38:29,120
Well, today wasn't so great.
772
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,870
We lost Veseli, then Richard Deever,
773
00:38:33,070 --> 00:38:35,460
and didn't even get eyes on Wujing.
774
00:38:35,660 --> 00:38:38,690
Deever, you and he share a past,
do you not?
775
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,090
I'm pretty sure you're aware
he's the CIA agent who betrayed me.
776
00:38:43,290 --> 00:38:45,760
Ah, well, the nice thing about this job
777
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,850
is that your fortunes
can change on a dime.
778
00:38:49,050 --> 00:38:51,160
I'm texting you an address.
779
00:38:51,950 --> 00:38:53,910
Hold on. It's a new phone.
780
00:38:54,700 --> 00:38:56,440
- Ah. There.
- [cell phone beeps]
781
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,400
I suggest you get there right away.
782
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:00,570
- Why?
- There's a gift waiting for you.
783
00:39:00,770 --> 00:39:03,460
Consider it a belated
"welcome to the team."
784
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:08,340
[cell phone chimes]
785
00:39:25,820 --> 00:39:27,890
Well, hey, there, partner.
786
00:39:28,090 --> 00:39:29,320
Did you miss me?
787
00:39:32,870 --> 00:39:35,230
I heard you paid Agnes a visit today.
788
00:39:35,430 --> 00:39:37,730
She was raving
about the merits of mayonnaise.
789
00:39:37,930 --> 00:39:39,270
[chuckles] Yes.
790
00:39:39,470 --> 00:39:40,710
I stopped by.
791
00:39:41,460 --> 00:39:45,700
I was hoping to speak with you
about Herbie Hambright.
792
00:39:45,900 --> 00:39:49,780
Ah, Herbie. He's a little starved
for attention, isn't he?
793
00:39:49,980 --> 00:39:50,870
Indeed.
794
00:39:51,070 --> 00:39:53,000
I think you should hire him, Harold.
795
00:39:53,190 --> 00:39:54,290
Excuse me?
796
00:39:54,490 --> 00:39:57,290
He so desperately
wants to be part of a team.
797
00:39:57,490 --> 00:39:59,210
Your team, in fact.
798
00:39:59,410 --> 00:40:01,380
I think it would be wonderful for him.
799
00:40:01,580 --> 00:40:05,470
Though I should warn you,
he's not entirely a team player.
800
00:40:05,670 --> 00:40:08,680
- What a ringing endorsement.
- He's an unconventional choice.
801
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:12,850
What can I say? You won't find
a more qualified forensic analyst.
802
00:40:13,050 --> 00:40:15,810
He did do great work for us,
but he'd have to be vetted.
803
00:40:16,010 --> 00:40:19,860
Wasn't he fired by the DA's office
for dropping the ball on a murder case?
804
00:40:20,050 --> 00:40:23,150
No, the DA's office dropped the ball,
805
00:40:23,350 --> 00:40:24,900
and Herbie left the job.
806
00:40:25,100 --> 00:40:26,990
It all took quite a toll on him.
807
00:40:27,190 --> 00:40:30,240
Of course, I'm biased. I adore the guy.
808
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:34,700
Somewhere in all those frailties
is an incredible mind.
809
00:40:34,900 --> 00:40:38,750
He sees things in ways that others don't.
810
00:40:38,950 --> 00:40:42,590
I really think
he could offer a fresh perspective.
811
00:40:42,790 --> 00:40:44,340
I'll see if I can get him approved.
812
00:40:44,540 --> 00:40:46,090
On a provisional basis.
813
00:40:46,290 --> 00:40:48,340
That sounds just fine.
814
00:40:48,540 --> 00:40:52,550
Harold, I couldn't help but notice
that you forgot to inform me today
815
00:40:52,750 --> 00:40:55,100
about your plan to entrap Wujing.
816
00:40:55,300 --> 00:40:57,270
And you forgot to tell me
that you found Deever.
817
00:40:57,470 --> 00:40:59,390
- I didn't forget.
- What about Veseli?
818
00:40:59,590 --> 00:41:01,940
The man Deever "rescued" for you.
What are you going to do with him?
819
00:41:02,140 --> 00:41:03,900
Whatever the hell I want.
820
00:41:04,100 --> 00:41:07,440
I can't in good conscience
allow you to murder him. Or Wujing.
821
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:09,000
Or any of these Blacklisters.
822
00:41:14,510 --> 00:41:16,680
So much for being
more transparent with each other.
823
00:41:18,390 --> 00:41:22,460
You know, Harold, I have, in fact,
been keeping something from you.
824
00:41:22,660 --> 00:41:24,290
Something big.
825
00:41:24,490 --> 00:41:27,520
It's time for me
to let you and the task force in.
826
00:41:28,230 --> 00:41:30,090
If we play our cards right,
827
00:41:30,290 --> 00:41:33,720
this war with Wujing
will be over in 72 hours,
828
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:39,350
and my connection to the task force
will forever remain shrouded in secrecy.
829
00:41:39,550 --> 00:41:42,370
As if it was never there.
830
00:41:48,170 --> 00:41:50,170
[dramatic music playing]
