Blindspot (2015) s03e05 Episode Script
This Profound Legacy
1 [ELECTRIC RAZOR BUZZING.]
[SCISSORS SNIPPING.]
[DOOR SQUEAKS OPEN.]
[RUSSIAN ACCENT.]
Give me your phone, now.
Now, Vanya.
We have to be invisible.
Understand? [SIRENS WAILING.]
You're bleeding.
We gotta get you to a hospital.
Nyet.
We keep moving.
[MICROSCOPE CLICKING.]
[DOORS SLIDE OPEN.]
Patterson.
Hey, I'm glad you came.
So, I've been analyzing the ink from the birth records, and I did your adoption.
It says he did an adoption for me.
They're real.
You had a baby.
A daughter.
No.
No, I These came from a guy who's an expert forger.
We can't trust him.
These could all be fake.
They're not.
I contacted Okay, so he backstopped everything.
- [CHUCKLING.]
That's what - Jane, let's let's just hear her out.
First, I called the hospital.
And, unfortunately, all of the birth records before 2000 were destroyed in a flood.
Yeah, doesn't that seem weird to you? It did, until I verified your obstetrician's signature.
I cross-referenced it with basically everything that she's ever signed.
Prescriptions, uh, checks, her mortgage.
Okay, well, let's bring her in, see if she recognizes me.
She passed away five years ago.
[SCOFFS.]
Of course she did.
Jane, this is a real signature real hospital letterhead with real 18-year-old ink.
How could I forget I had a child? Forget that I gave birth.
I mean you had your memory erased.
Is there some kind of test that I can I'm sorry.
Pregnancy tests exist, but birth tests don't.
Jane, if you need some time No, I don't need time.
I need the truth.
You're sure about this? I mean, I'm not 100% certain, but no reputable scientist would ever claim Okay, then keep digging.
- Jane.
- Keep no, I'm I'm done with being manipulated, Kurt.
I'm done with lies.
Patterson, give us a sec.
Of course.
I used to think I was Taylor Shaw until all of that, my whole sense of who I was, was ripped away.
So, I can't I can't just I can't do it again.
I understand.
[FAINT VIDEO GAME NOISES.]
Uh-oh.
Looks like somebody needs my Wizardville expertise.
Let me guess, you made it all the way to the Elfin Moat and can't figure out how to raise the drawbridge.
I own that drawbridge.
Excuse me.
What's up? I was hoping you could tell me.
What were you doing with Jonathan West? What? I texted you and you said you were going home, but you were with that tool from the State Department, same day he lost our perp.
So, you're following me now? I just happened to see him get into your car.
Look, I'm I'm sure you have a good reason for I don't need a reason.
I'm the assistant director of this office.
What about that is unclear to you? I didn't mean to upset you, I Hey, I have a tattoo I want you guys to see.
- Can we at least - No, we can't.
[PATTERSON.]
Okay, Jane has 33 new letters and numbers tattooed along her spine.
The "backbone" of our case, if you will.
We will not.
This string of alphanumeric characters matches a tracking number to a box of evidence that was just scanned for transfer by the police department.
Wait, that's not the format used by the NYPD.
You used to be a cop, we get it.
What's in the box? [PATTERSON.]
Zapata is right.
The tracking format on the box hasn't been used since '97.
As for what's inside, the evidence manifest isn't very helpful.
Great, so we don't know what's in the box.
Yeah, well, it could be anything at this point.
Seized arms, a brick of cocaine, a murder weapon, Gwyneth Paltrow's head Well, whatever it is, it's gotta be important.
Why else would it be flagged for transfer 20 years later? All right, Weller, Jane, you guys go to the warehouse.
All right, we'll intercept that box - before it gets transferred.
- Yeah, I'll come with.
Nope, they can handle it.
I got paperwork for you.
Fine.
[METALLIC SQUEAKING AND CLANKING.]
[FOOTSTEPS ON METAL STAIRS.]
[WELLER.]
Wow.
So it could be any one of these boxes.
[JANE.]
Heh, at least they're organized.
Yeah, and their security's great.
The clerk barely looked at my badge.
FBI.
Stop! [SPEAKING RUSSIAN.]
[WELLER.]
Stop! Jane, over here! [GRUNTS.]
Uhh! [GRUNTING.]
[GRUNTING.]
[GUNSHOT.]
Kurt! Kurt! [GRUNTING.]
Kurt! Kurt! Uhh! [FIRE EXTINGUISHER HISSING.]
Stand back! Get back.
[COUGHING.]
- You okay? - Uhh.
Yeah.
[PHONE LINE RINGING.]
Patterson.
Weller, you need to get out of there now.
Three evidence warehouses in Manhattan were just firebombed.
They just hit here, too.
So this is a synchronized attack.
Was anyone hurt? Two casualties so far, both NYPD.
What in the hell is in that box? Whatever's in it somebody's willing to burn down half the city to destroy it.
Patterson, any leads on the arsonists that hit the other warehouses? Not yet.
Those facilities burned so fast, their CCTV systems liquefied before any footage could be uploaded to an outside server.
Their MOs appear to be the same at each location gas and Molotov cocktails.
Kurt, I found the box! [GRUNTS.]
[TAPE SLICING.]
Oh These are all rape kits.
[WELLER.]
And they're all untested, every one of them.
Some of these are 20 years old.
Why haven't these been processed? Unfortunately, law enforcement budgets don't make it a priority.
Homicide and narcotics take precedent.
Sexual assault is an afterthought.
Tasha's right, there's a huge backlog of untested kits.
[PATTERSON.]
Yeah, like hundreds of thousands across the country.
But all this evidence could be used to put away serial offenders.
We could be preventing future attacks.
I know.
The the system is broken.
Well, looks like someone's trying to fix it.
[TABLET BEEPING.]
New York State just passed legislation last week earmarking funds to process backlogged rape kits.
Which is why this box is being transferred.
Because they were finally going to be tested.
Which, clearly, somebody doesn't want.
Maybe one of those kits incriminates someone powerful a senator, a CEO.
[READE.]
Whoever it was, they obviously didn't know which box was theirs, so they just hit every warehouse at once.
And all those other rape kits that were destroyed were just collateral damage.
Proof of all those crimes, all those histories erased.
[PATTERSON.]
I'll notify our forensics unit.
Those kits will receive expedited testing.
We'll bring these in now.
The Coast Guard just found Stuart's phone, washed up on the shore of the Hudson.
Oh, my God this could be huge.
Don't get too excited, that thing's gonna be waterlogged.
It's just a little damp.
- Okay, it's soggy.
- It's useless.
Do you know who you're talking to.
Thank you! Ye of little faith.
I may still be able to recover the last text message Stuart sent the night he was killed.
I thought those were already scrubbed from his cell provider service.
Yeah, but the text may still be in the phone's memory.
All right, just don't waste any time if it starts feeling like a dead end.
- What the hell was that? - I don't know.
I know he's a skeptical guy, but first, he lied to you about meeting with the State Department, and now he's trying to wave me off the biggest lead we have in Stuart's murder? Something's not right.
[JANE SPEAKING RUSSIAN.]
[RUSSIAN ACCENT.]
Your Russian is good, but my English is better.
Great, so you'll understand this.
- Life in prison, no parole.
- [JANE.]
We want names.
And I want Russia to win World Cup.
[SMACKS TABLE.]
Who do you work for? Myself.
Oh, hmm! So, you're the boss.
So, you're confessing to killing two active-duty cops? Dmitry Gagarin, he is one, he tell me about job.
Who the hell is he? Your pretty friend here, she killed him.
What else did Dmitry tell you? Nothing.
I get paid to make it burn, not to ask questions.
So, how are you paid? Lawyer.
We're done here.
Oh, beta team just picked up two guys at the other warehouse.
So, we can make a deal with them.
[JANE.]
Great.
Have fun at Rikers.
Yeah.
Direct deposit.
What bank? And under what name? East Bank, under alias Igor Belostok.
We make deal now? I dug into Igor's bank accounts.
Our perp received three massive deposits from a cafe called Emily's Place in Newark, which, shock of all shocks, doesn't exist.
- Another dead end.
- No.
Dmitry Gagarin was a dead end, literally.
But this, this was a big lead in need of a little math.
All right, so take a look at these.
All of the deposits from Emily's Place are in weird amounts.
No identical deposits, no round numbers.
[PATTERSON.]
Which got me thinking, what if these were converted from a foreign currency? So, I wrote a program that calculated these amounts in every world currency, and then I converted them to the Kazahrusian ruble.
Voila, round figures.
Three payments of 50,000 rubles each.
So, whoever wanted these rape kits destroyed is from Kazahrus.
A country known for human rights abuses.
[READE.]
When do we get the DNA results back? A few hours.
So, I've been doing research on the rape victims, and only two have ties to Kazahrus Jessica Wells and Yasmine Petrushev.
Back in '97, Jessica ran a hedge fund with investments in Kazahrusian hydrocarbon firms.
Yasmine worked at the Kazahrusian embassy.
All right, give me addresses, I'll send teams to talk to both of them.
Copy that.
[PATTERSON.]
Hey - What's up? - Uh, how you doing? I know this news about Jane's daughter affects you, too.
I'm fine.
Yeah.
Come on.
I wanna be there for her.
But I don't know how.
Just listen to her, and don't try to fix it.
That's the problem.
I can't fix it.
I can't.
[WATER RUNNING.]
[PHONE BUZZING.]
[BUZZING CONTINUES.]
Hello? Patterson's been a busy beaver.
- Roman.
- Calling the hospital where you had the baby, digging through birth records.
Roman, please.
You don't have to play Sherlock on this one, Jane.
You can just ask your brother.
Yeah, okay.
Did I give up my child? She was beautiful.
You used to sing to her, rock her to sleep in your arms.
[HUMMING "HUSH, LITTLE BABY".]
[ROMAN CONTINUES HUMMING.]
[WOMAN, ECHOEY.]
Hush, little baby, don't say a word That song It's true.
Why would I lie? The truth is painful enough.
It's Roman.
Track the call.
[WHISPERING.]
What's he saying? Why did I do it? You didn't.
Our mother took her.
I guess having a granddaughter didn't exactly fit into her plans, so she gave her away.
Then why didn't I fight to keep her? You did.
We both did.
But you know Shepherd.
No.
No, I should have done more! You ran.
That's how you coped.
Why do you think you enlisted in the military? Who's the father? Your high school sweetheart.
Nice enough guy, I guess.
Shepherd hated him.
Tried to stop you from seeing each other.
Where is she? Where is my daughter? How's Patterson doing on that trace? [CHUCKLES.]
Maybe next time.
Roman! I'm sorry, Jane.
Tell me you got his location.
I tried.
But he's masking the call.
First, it routed through Europe, and then to Antarctica.
[JANE.]
He knew Patterson contacted the hospital.
Find out how.
Are you okay? No, I'm not.
I'll talk to her.
I have to talk to Shepherd.
It's the last thing I wanna do but I need answers.
You can't trust her.
She'll play mind games with you, mess with your head.
How could I have let her take my child? You were a child yourself.
You were 16, Jane.
You have a daughter.
Would you ever let someone take Bethany? No you'd die to protect her.
But I just let mine go.
[DOORS SLIDE OPEN.]
[WHISPERING.]
Hey.
Well, Reade was right.
I couldn't get anything off of Stuart's phone.
The motherboard was saturated, and it's it's a lost cause.
Not necessarily.
I'm telling you, the phone is mush.
This isn't a "leave it in rice" situation Yeah, but nobody knows that.
So, what if we bluff? Claim that we found something? See if anyone at the FBI tampers with it.
Ooh, that's good.
We can flush out whoever is covering up Stuart's murder.
[WHISPERING.]
Exactly.
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING.]
You're gonna wanna see this.
The rape kit DNA results came back.
Yasmine Petrushev, the woman who was working at the Kazahrusian embassy at the time of her attack, was raped by the late Ivan Valdemaras.
- As in "King Valdemaras"? - [PATTERSON.]
Yeah.
In January of 1997, during the time of her assault, King Ivan was stateside attending a natural resources summit.
How does the FBI have King Ivan's DNA? They don't, the CIA does we stole some samples while he was having bypass surgery in Switzerland.
[WELLER.]
Wait, the king died this year, though.
Didn't his younger brother take over the throne? [ZAPATA.]
That's right.
Uh, the team at Yasmine's apartment says it's been ransacked.
There's a trail of blood leading outside.
They also found these.
Yasmine has a son.
Wait.
You don't think that that's [PATTERSON.]
His name's Vanya Petrushev.
Born October 8, 1997, nine months after Yasmine was raped.
Attacking those evidence facilities, coming after him at his home, they're trying to erase all record of him.
Because he's the rightful heir to the Kazahrusian throne.
This is a war of succession.
And if they're willing to kill cops just to destroy DNA evidence, imagine what they'll do just to get that kid.
[GUNS COCKING.]
[RUSSIAN ACCENT.]
There are no rules, understand? We do whatever is necessary until the boy is dead.
In addition to bein the heir to the Kazahrusian throne, Vanya is also a student at NYU.
Or was the blood found at the apartment could have been his.
Negative forensics said the blood belonged to his mother, Yasmine.
Matched the sample from her rape kit.
All right, so where are on finding him? [ZAPATA.]
We got a hit on our APB.
Yasmine's car was spotted at a gas station in East Orange, New Jersey, and local cops found more blood at the gas station bathroom.
- So, they're on the run.
- Looks like it.
They ditched their phones, and security cams show Yasmine buying burners.
She's trying to protect her son.
Well, if it isn't all my favorite people! What the hell are you doing here, Weitz? Oh, no, that's Congressman Weitz, and I was invited.
Well, don't look at me, darlings.
- I called him.
- What? Congressman Weitz is a member of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
He's their expert on Kazahrus.
I mean, somebody has to be, right? But listen, before we get into this whole Kazahrusian nightmare, I wanna say thank you, sincerely.
I never would have made it to Congress so fast if it weren't for all of you.
Oh, how is Nas, by the way? Did she land on her feet? [SCOFFS.]
This better be worth it.
Patterson, keep digging in on the kid and his mother's whereabouts.
The rest of us are in with Weitz.
I'm with her.
I missed you, too.
All right, three things you need to know about Kazahrus.
Number one, they are an absolute monarchy, which means The order of succession is based solely on heredity.
I think most of us studied civics.
Number two, they are a crucial US ally.
Without them, bye-bye, natural gas.
How does this help us find the kid? Number three, their new king makes Stalin look like Santa Claus.
So, he ordered the hit on Vanya? Oh, without a doubt.
Meet King Cyrus Valdemaras, the brother of late King Ivan.
And this is what happens when you piss Cyrus off.
Ohh.
I remember this.
Guy used sarin gas on his own people.
Decimated a village for good measure.
Oh, my God.
Cyrus is not exactly known for precision warfare.
So, anyone in Vanya's vicinity Has a target on their back.
[WEITZ.]
And we have a base in Kazahrus with 1,800 American soldiers on it, and we need to keep it that way.
We lose that base, we destabilize the region.
But I don't get it how did Cyrus even find out about the boy? Ivan died two months ago.
Word is he made a deathbed confession.
Why would he do that? Cyrus and Ivan had a bitter rivalry.
And what better way to twist the knife than tell your little brother he's being passed over.
- Exactly.
- Only, instead of conceding to Vanya, Cyrus ordered his assassination.
So we need to find this kid before Cyrus' hitmen do.
I'll call Homeland Security, you three work together, try to ID his kill squad and shut 'em down.
[KNOCK ON DOOR.]
You wanted to see me? Take a seat, Edgar.
First name that's never a good sign.
I'm just worried about you, that's all.
I heard you and Zapata had a little fight this morning.
Oh, this place is worse than high school.
What's going on with you two? Nothing.
She saw me with West, and she's a busybody, so Is she the sort of busybody who can keep her mouth shut? - Can you trust her? - Of course, yeah.
But it doesn't matter.
I didn't tell her why I met with West.
I'd be inclined to keep it that way, if I were you.
Don't worry about Tasha.
She's a friend.
Well, so am I.
I just don't wanna see you get burned.
Thanks to the magic of social media, we figured out that Vanya has a girlfriend.
And this is relevant, why? Because Vanya sent her this just 12 minutes ago.
Hey, it's me.
I'm sorry I took off.
It's just temporary.
Um, I can't really say anything else right now, but I love you.
Aw, that's sweet, but I still don't see why this is relevant.
Vanya and his mom ditched their phones and bought burners, so I can't track them directly.
But you can track 'em through this message.
Bingo.
It looks like he took this video in a motel, so I scoured the background for any clues.
- And see these drapes? - How can you not? When I did a comprehensive image search for this fabric, I discovered that they are exclusively made for the Edgewood Suites hotel chain.
Okay, so how many of those are within close radius - to their last known location? - Three.
Jane and I'll head to the one closest to the gas station.
Yasmine was wounded, so they can't get too far.
I'll send teams to the other two.
Keep us updated.
Do you get it yet, Matthew? Or do you need me to run you through that again? [SIREN WHOOPING.]
Do you think Vanya knows about who his father was? How he was conceived? If these people get to them before we do Don't worry, Jane.
They won't.
We're gonna get to them first.
We're gonna keep 'em safe, I promise.
And what about my daughter? Who's looking out for her? I have to find her, Kurt.
I have to know she's okay.
[CELL PHONE RINGING.]
Patterson, what do you got? You're headed to the right spot.
They're in Room 317.
Copy that.
[SIREN WHOOPING.]
FBI! Stay back! Leave her alone! We're the FBI.
Now, drop that weapon.
I said, stay back! Hey, we're here to help you.
Yeah? Like those other men? No, we are here to protect you from them.
They are on their way, so we need to get you and your mom out of here now.
[GROANING.]
Vanya, she's going to die.
Stand back! Stand back! Vanya, we're here to help you.
But I need you to put that gun down.
I don't believe you.
Okay.
Here.
See? We're not here to hurt you.
Okay? I know that you're afraid.
But I also know that you wanna help your mom.
And I know the feeling of having someone that you love and you trust more than anyone in the world hurt.
[YASMINE GRUNTING.]
Let me try and stop the bleeding, okay? - Okay.
- Let me do that.
[WELLER.]
Put the gun down.
Put it down.
- Put it on the bed.
- [SOBBING.]
We need to get him out of here.
Okay, we need to get her to a hospital.
[DISTANT SIREN.]
Weitz just called in the Diplomatic Security Service, so between them and our guys, this place is completely secure.
Good, we can't take any chances.
- How's Yasmine? - [SIGHS.]
I don't know.
She's still in surgery.
Poor kid.
How you holding up, Vanya? I used to ask about him when I was little.
"Where is my dad? Where is he? Is he Superman?" [SCOFFS.]
So stupid.
You were just a kid.
I kept asking, though.
And then, when I turned 18 she finally told me about the attack.
Did she ever tell you who he was? Last night, she came to my dorm.
That's when she told me who he was.
[SIGHS.]
I'm so sorry, Vanya.
I know it probably feels like everything's different now, like you don't know who you are anymore.
I know exactly who I am.
I'm my mother's son.
And whatever that man did to her doesn't make him my father.
He's he's nothing to me.
And I'm never going to Kazahrus.
I'm staying here, and I'm looking after her, just like she looked after me.
[APPROACHING FOOTSTEPS.]
- Any luck? - Nada.
Not even a partial print.
I'm starting to think that whoever hit Yasmine's house doesn't have fingers.
[COMPUTER BEEPS.]
Okay someone just logged into our server to access our bogus phone data.
Here we go.
Moment of truth.
[KEYBOARD CLACKING.]
What, who is it? - It's Reade.
- No.
It can't be.
It that doesn't make any sense.
The test is flawed.
He's out of the office.
He has every right to review evidence.
Does he also have every right to destroy it? Look, he didn't even open the files.
He just logged in and erased the last 50 uploads to the server.
Come on.
Reade would never be dumb enough to He's covering his tracks.
[BEEP.]
They say they're corrupted by a system malfunction.
I know my server.
This is not a malfunction, and it's no coincidence.
There has to be an explanation.
Reade is family.
So was Borden.
How do you feel, Mom? Do you need anything? No.
I have everything I need.
Gonna get you some water.
No, Vanya.
No.
It's okay.
I'll go with him.
Come on.
Thank you for keeping him safe.
[SCOFFS.]
You did that.
You were so strong for him, Yasmine.
I did what any mother would.
Vanya comes from darkness but he is my light.
Please, promise me you will protect him.
I'll protect you both.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
Who did that? Who did that? How long till your constituents realize they made a terrible mistake? Ah, actually, my re-election is a lock.
I'm polling great.
Polls have been wrong before.
Mm? Look at this face.
Say, bro, I wouldn't piss her off if I were you.
She works for the CIA.
Now, you really want her spying on you? [WEITZ.]
Wait, wait.
Ooh, sorry, congressman stuff.
I gotta [CLICKS TONGUE.]
Can you believe anyone voted for that fool? [SIGHS.]
Um, about this morning.
I know you were looking out for me, and I I appreciate it.
But you gotta trust me too.
- I do.
- Good.
I think I've earned it.
And if there's anything I can't handle, I'll be sure to tell you.
Okay.
You can't support the Patriots.
You grew up in New York.
Uh, yeah, but the Patriots win.
Oh, what's wrong? Jones where are you? Why aren't you outside her door? Jones, where the hell [GUNSHOT.]
Agh! [GASPS.]
Vanya! Vanya! - Shh shh! Shh! - Vanya! [WHISPERING.]
Don't make a sound.
Stay right here.
Cyrus's hitmen are inside, and they're dressed as FBI.
We gotta get Vanya and Yasmine out of here now.
[DISTANT GUNSHOTS.]
- Come on! This whole hospital's under attack! We're under siege! [INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER.]
[WHISPERING.]
They're on FBI comms.
We're taking Vanya to the roof.
Repeat, we're taking the asset to the roof.
We need a heli evac, now.
Wait, hold on, we can't leave my mom! - [WELLER.]
We're not.
- Vanya! Let's go, let's go, let's go! - Come on, go! - Go! [YASMINE GROANING.]
Yasmine, come here.
There you go.
Stevens, open that door! I thought you were taking the boy to the roof.
The chopper's on its way.
The Kazahrusians are on our comms, all right? We fed them false intel.
Give me the keys.
All right.
Take that team up to the roof and take out the mercenaries, move.
[STEVENS.]
All right, let's move! [TIRES SCREECHING.]
It's not Reade.
What? How do you know? You know how Reade plays Wizardville? Yeah.
Well, the program has a slight back door-ish.
It's super not a big deal, but before you point fingers, you should know that there was no way to code it without being able to spy on users.
Or, that's totally not the word I wanted to use.
I have never used it until now.
- This seemed like an emergency - Patterson, I don't care! What did you find? [SIGHS.]
Okay.
Reade's supposed login occurred from a computer terminal within the FBI, but he wasn't even in the building.
He was at Chris & John's Coffee in Midtown.
Someone used his login.
He's getting framed.
[PHONE BUZZING.]
Weller? Everything okay? No, it's not.
We need backup immediately.
The Kazahrusians just hit the hospital.
What? How? We had FBI and DSS teams I don't know, but we've got Vanya and his mom.
All right, we got 'em out in time.
We're headed [ZAPATA.]
Headed south on Bronx River Parkway.
We're tracking your cell.
I just got word.
How they doing? - We're on with Weller now.
- Oh, what's going on? The DSS just told me that We're on it! Weller, I'm dispatching a convoy.
They're 15 minutes out.
Keep moving.
They will find you.
Copy that.
Just keep us updated.
I can't believe it.
I'm calling the Foreign Affairs Committee immediately.
- Hey, it's gonna be okay.
- Yeah.
We're taking you to a safe house.
No! [TIRES SCREECHING.]
[YASMINE.]
Why are we stopping? - Spike strip.
- Yeah.
Kurt! Everyone down! Get down! Get down! Get down! [MAN SHOUTS.]
[YASMINE GASPING.]
[JANE.]
Stay in the car.
Stay down.
Cover me! Uhh! Agh! [WELLER.]
No! Get out! [YASMINE SHRIEKING.]
Get out, get out! Come here, come here! [VANYA.]
You okay? Everyone okay? Nice work.
[ELEVATOR BELL CHIMES.]
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
[HIRST.]
Holy hell, am I glad to see you.
We're glad to be seen.
- Where's the mother? - Yasmine's in with medical.
They're redoing some of her sutures, but she's gonna be fine.
Thanks to you guys.
I mean, really, you guys are seriously badass.
Please don't, it'll go straight to their heads.
[WELLER CHUCKLES.]
What did you find? I figured out who used Reade's login.
I know who's trying to set him up for Stuart's murder.
Who? It was Hirst.
How can you be so sure Hirst is the one who framed Reade? I run biometric software in the backgrounds of all of our computers.
You want answers or not? I want you to consider the CIA.
All right, what does the program show us? The way each person uses a computer can be read like a unique digital signature.
So, the way you type, the way you click, the speed, the force So, you tracked and analyzed everyone's mouse - and keystroke habits? - Yeah.
So, she logged in as Reade, but it's her biometric signature.
So, after she logged in, she deleted the evidence off of our servers.
Innocent people don't do that.
If she thought she was erasing the contents of Stuart's phone, then she definitely has something to hide.
Do you think she killed Stuart? Or she's covering up for whoever did.
You think she also tampered with Stuart's Kinga, too? She definitely has the reach.
So, what else is Hirst hiding? She was real protective of "Mr.
Short Sell" Kevin Loewe a few cases ago.
Kevin Loewe's one of the biggest names on Wall Street.
This evidence better be ironclad.
She could have easily downgraded the anonymous tip that pointed to him.
Yeah, but why? I mean, does he handle her investments or something? [KEYBOARD CLACKING.]
They knew each other.
What? That's Hirst.
"Law Review Editor-In-Chief Eleanor Hirst with Managing Editor Kim Loewe.
" That is Kevin Loewe's first wife.
They all went to Georgia together.
That's a pretty big detail not to mention.
She's been manipulating tattoo cases.
Because some of them point to her.
While you guys were out playing "Street Fighter," I was busy trying to prevent a major geopolitical crisis.
King Cyrus is dead.
- What? - Yeah.
Two hours ago, he was hanged at the behest of the Kazahrusian elites.
- Good.
- Nope, actually, not good.
Now, the entire region is destabilized.
The Kazahrusian are demanding their heir.
They want Vanya to come lead.
- Absolutely not.
- Well, not your call to make.
And what if he doesn't want to go? Well, then the Kazahrusians will assume we're holding him against his will.
Our base outside the capital will be under siege before nightfall.
One of the oligarchs jockeying for power will attempt a coup.
Chaos, rioting, massive casualties Yeah, we get it.
Or, Vanya can get on a plane.
No.
This isn't fair.
He's 20 years old, and he doesn't want this.
Jane that boy needs to hear his options and know what's at stake.
You, of all people, should understand that.
[WELLER.]
No one can force you to leave, Vanya.
[JANE.]
I know what it's like to live a life that's not your own.
You don't have to do this.
You You don't have to go.
Yes, I do.
This, this is how I make things right.
My whole life, I've heard my grandparents talk about the horrors of Kazahrus.
All the violence friends jailed for criticizing the monarch, massive food shortages.
I mean, they risked everything to come here.
They sacrificed for my mom, just like she sacrificed for me.
So, what, now it's your turn? What if I can make things better for these people? Don't I have to try? What part of "I need you to trust me" didn't you understand? [ZAPATA.]
Look, we're sorry.
But aren't you glad we're onto Hirst? Are you kidding me right now? Reade, come on, she used your login.
- Allegedly! - No, it was her.
My biometric software Is what, infallible, just like you? You want a gold star for planting sham evidence on a server so you could spy on other agents? That's not how we do things at the FBI.
This is bigger than that, Reade.
Hirst has been looking out for me since I was in Quantico.
I trust her, which is more than I can say for either one of you right now.
Do you guys realize this is exactly what Roman wanted? He promised we'd be at each other's throats, and look where we are right now, playing right into his hands.
Okay, would you at least consider Some real evidence? Absolutely, Patterson.
Why don't you bring me some? Until then, I'm done playing make-believe.
Show yourselves out.
They're too close.
He doesn't wanna see it.
I hope that's all.
Otherwise, he's covering for her.
Whatcha thinkin' about? [CHUCKLES.]
Nothing.
You? How are you doing? Really.
[SIGHS.]
Today was hard.
I can't stop thinking I have a daughter.
- Jane - I changed my mind about finding her.
After seeing how Vanya's life was upended, I just I want her to be happy.
And something tells me that'll be a lot easier if she doesn't know I exist.
Whatever you want.
Sir, she was just here.
You must have seen her.
Can you ask around for me? Please, can you just take this photo [SPEAKING GERMAN.]
What I'll check.
Thank you.
And thank you.
Don't worry about it.
We're looking for the same person.
Jane Doe? Or Alice Kruger, Remi.
She has a lot of names.
Mine's Avery.
How do you know Jane? She's my mother.
[SCISSORS SNIPPING.]
[DOOR SQUEAKS OPEN.]
[RUSSIAN ACCENT.]
Give me your phone, now.
Now, Vanya.
We have to be invisible.
Understand? [SIRENS WAILING.]
You're bleeding.
We gotta get you to a hospital.
Nyet.
We keep moving.
[MICROSCOPE CLICKING.]
[DOORS SLIDE OPEN.]
Patterson.
Hey, I'm glad you came.
So, I've been analyzing the ink from the birth records, and I did your adoption.
It says he did an adoption for me.
They're real.
You had a baby.
A daughter.
No.
No, I These came from a guy who's an expert forger.
We can't trust him.
These could all be fake.
They're not.
I contacted Okay, so he backstopped everything.
- [CHUCKLING.]
That's what - Jane, let's let's just hear her out.
First, I called the hospital.
And, unfortunately, all of the birth records before 2000 were destroyed in a flood.
Yeah, doesn't that seem weird to you? It did, until I verified your obstetrician's signature.
I cross-referenced it with basically everything that she's ever signed.
Prescriptions, uh, checks, her mortgage.
Okay, well, let's bring her in, see if she recognizes me.
She passed away five years ago.
[SCOFFS.]
Of course she did.
Jane, this is a real signature real hospital letterhead with real 18-year-old ink.
How could I forget I had a child? Forget that I gave birth.
I mean you had your memory erased.
Is there some kind of test that I can I'm sorry.
Pregnancy tests exist, but birth tests don't.
Jane, if you need some time No, I don't need time.
I need the truth.
You're sure about this? I mean, I'm not 100% certain, but no reputable scientist would ever claim Okay, then keep digging.
- Jane.
- Keep no, I'm I'm done with being manipulated, Kurt.
I'm done with lies.
Patterson, give us a sec.
Of course.
I used to think I was Taylor Shaw until all of that, my whole sense of who I was, was ripped away.
So, I can't I can't just I can't do it again.
I understand.
[FAINT VIDEO GAME NOISES.]
Uh-oh.
Looks like somebody needs my Wizardville expertise.
Let me guess, you made it all the way to the Elfin Moat and can't figure out how to raise the drawbridge.
I own that drawbridge.
Excuse me.
What's up? I was hoping you could tell me.
What were you doing with Jonathan West? What? I texted you and you said you were going home, but you were with that tool from the State Department, same day he lost our perp.
So, you're following me now? I just happened to see him get into your car.
Look, I'm I'm sure you have a good reason for I don't need a reason.
I'm the assistant director of this office.
What about that is unclear to you? I didn't mean to upset you, I Hey, I have a tattoo I want you guys to see.
- Can we at least - No, we can't.
[PATTERSON.]
Okay, Jane has 33 new letters and numbers tattooed along her spine.
The "backbone" of our case, if you will.
We will not.
This string of alphanumeric characters matches a tracking number to a box of evidence that was just scanned for transfer by the police department.
Wait, that's not the format used by the NYPD.
You used to be a cop, we get it.
What's in the box? [PATTERSON.]
Zapata is right.
The tracking format on the box hasn't been used since '97.
As for what's inside, the evidence manifest isn't very helpful.
Great, so we don't know what's in the box.
Yeah, well, it could be anything at this point.
Seized arms, a brick of cocaine, a murder weapon, Gwyneth Paltrow's head Well, whatever it is, it's gotta be important.
Why else would it be flagged for transfer 20 years later? All right, Weller, Jane, you guys go to the warehouse.
All right, we'll intercept that box - before it gets transferred.
- Yeah, I'll come with.
Nope, they can handle it.
I got paperwork for you.
Fine.
[METALLIC SQUEAKING AND CLANKING.]
[FOOTSTEPS ON METAL STAIRS.]
[WELLER.]
Wow.
So it could be any one of these boxes.
[JANE.]
Heh, at least they're organized.
Yeah, and their security's great.
The clerk barely looked at my badge.
FBI.
Stop! [SPEAKING RUSSIAN.]
[WELLER.]
Stop! Jane, over here! [GRUNTS.]
Uhh! [GRUNTING.]
[GRUNTING.]
[GUNSHOT.]
Kurt! Kurt! [GRUNTING.]
Kurt! Kurt! Uhh! [FIRE EXTINGUISHER HISSING.]
Stand back! Get back.
[COUGHING.]
- You okay? - Uhh.
Yeah.
[PHONE LINE RINGING.]
Patterson.
Weller, you need to get out of there now.
Three evidence warehouses in Manhattan were just firebombed.
They just hit here, too.
So this is a synchronized attack.
Was anyone hurt? Two casualties so far, both NYPD.
What in the hell is in that box? Whatever's in it somebody's willing to burn down half the city to destroy it.
Patterson, any leads on the arsonists that hit the other warehouses? Not yet.
Those facilities burned so fast, their CCTV systems liquefied before any footage could be uploaded to an outside server.
Their MOs appear to be the same at each location gas and Molotov cocktails.
Kurt, I found the box! [GRUNTS.]
[TAPE SLICING.]
Oh These are all rape kits.
[WELLER.]
And they're all untested, every one of them.
Some of these are 20 years old.
Why haven't these been processed? Unfortunately, law enforcement budgets don't make it a priority.
Homicide and narcotics take precedent.
Sexual assault is an afterthought.
Tasha's right, there's a huge backlog of untested kits.
[PATTERSON.]
Yeah, like hundreds of thousands across the country.
But all this evidence could be used to put away serial offenders.
We could be preventing future attacks.
I know.
The the system is broken.
Well, looks like someone's trying to fix it.
[TABLET BEEPING.]
New York State just passed legislation last week earmarking funds to process backlogged rape kits.
Which is why this box is being transferred.
Because they were finally going to be tested.
Which, clearly, somebody doesn't want.
Maybe one of those kits incriminates someone powerful a senator, a CEO.
[READE.]
Whoever it was, they obviously didn't know which box was theirs, so they just hit every warehouse at once.
And all those other rape kits that were destroyed were just collateral damage.
Proof of all those crimes, all those histories erased.
[PATTERSON.]
I'll notify our forensics unit.
Those kits will receive expedited testing.
We'll bring these in now.
The Coast Guard just found Stuart's phone, washed up on the shore of the Hudson.
Oh, my God this could be huge.
Don't get too excited, that thing's gonna be waterlogged.
It's just a little damp.
- Okay, it's soggy.
- It's useless.
Do you know who you're talking to.
Thank you! Ye of little faith.
I may still be able to recover the last text message Stuart sent the night he was killed.
I thought those were already scrubbed from his cell provider service.
Yeah, but the text may still be in the phone's memory.
All right, just don't waste any time if it starts feeling like a dead end.
- What the hell was that? - I don't know.
I know he's a skeptical guy, but first, he lied to you about meeting with the State Department, and now he's trying to wave me off the biggest lead we have in Stuart's murder? Something's not right.
[JANE SPEAKING RUSSIAN.]
[RUSSIAN ACCENT.]
Your Russian is good, but my English is better.
Great, so you'll understand this.
- Life in prison, no parole.
- [JANE.]
We want names.
And I want Russia to win World Cup.
[SMACKS TABLE.]
Who do you work for? Myself.
Oh, hmm! So, you're the boss.
So, you're confessing to killing two active-duty cops? Dmitry Gagarin, he is one, he tell me about job.
Who the hell is he? Your pretty friend here, she killed him.
What else did Dmitry tell you? Nothing.
I get paid to make it burn, not to ask questions.
So, how are you paid? Lawyer.
We're done here.
Oh, beta team just picked up two guys at the other warehouse.
So, we can make a deal with them.
[JANE.]
Great.
Have fun at Rikers.
Yeah.
Direct deposit.
What bank? And under what name? East Bank, under alias Igor Belostok.
We make deal now? I dug into Igor's bank accounts.
Our perp received three massive deposits from a cafe called Emily's Place in Newark, which, shock of all shocks, doesn't exist.
- Another dead end.
- No.
Dmitry Gagarin was a dead end, literally.
But this, this was a big lead in need of a little math.
All right, so take a look at these.
All of the deposits from Emily's Place are in weird amounts.
No identical deposits, no round numbers.
[PATTERSON.]
Which got me thinking, what if these were converted from a foreign currency? So, I wrote a program that calculated these amounts in every world currency, and then I converted them to the Kazahrusian ruble.
Voila, round figures.
Three payments of 50,000 rubles each.
So, whoever wanted these rape kits destroyed is from Kazahrus.
A country known for human rights abuses.
[READE.]
When do we get the DNA results back? A few hours.
So, I've been doing research on the rape victims, and only two have ties to Kazahrus Jessica Wells and Yasmine Petrushev.
Back in '97, Jessica ran a hedge fund with investments in Kazahrusian hydrocarbon firms.
Yasmine worked at the Kazahrusian embassy.
All right, give me addresses, I'll send teams to talk to both of them.
Copy that.
[PATTERSON.]
Hey - What's up? - Uh, how you doing? I know this news about Jane's daughter affects you, too.
I'm fine.
Yeah.
Come on.
I wanna be there for her.
But I don't know how.
Just listen to her, and don't try to fix it.
That's the problem.
I can't fix it.
I can't.
[WATER RUNNING.]
[PHONE BUZZING.]
[BUZZING CONTINUES.]
Hello? Patterson's been a busy beaver.
- Roman.
- Calling the hospital where you had the baby, digging through birth records.
Roman, please.
You don't have to play Sherlock on this one, Jane.
You can just ask your brother.
Yeah, okay.
Did I give up my child? She was beautiful.
You used to sing to her, rock her to sleep in your arms.
[HUMMING "HUSH, LITTLE BABY".]
[ROMAN CONTINUES HUMMING.]
[WOMAN, ECHOEY.]
Hush, little baby, don't say a word That song It's true.
Why would I lie? The truth is painful enough.
It's Roman.
Track the call.
[WHISPERING.]
What's he saying? Why did I do it? You didn't.
Our mother took her.
I guess having a granddaughter didn't exactly fit into her plans, so she gave her away.
Then why didn't I fight to keep her? You did.
We both did.
But you know Shepherd.
No.
No, I should have done more! You ran.
That's how you coped.
Why do you think you enlisted in the military? Who's the father? Your high school sweetheart.
Nice enough guy, I guess.
Shepherd hated him.
Tried to stop you from seeing each other.
Where is she? Where is my daughter? How's Patterson doing on that trace? [CHUCKLES.]
Maybe next time.
Roman! I'm sorry, Jane.
Tell me you got his location.
I tried.
But he's masking the call.
First, it routed through Europe, and then to Antarctica.
[JANE.]
He knew Patterson contacted the hospital.
Find out how.
Are you okay? No, I'm not.
I'll talk to her.
I have to talk to Shepherd.
It's the last thing I wanna do but I need answers.
You can't trust her.
She'll play mind games with you, mess with your head.
How could I have let her take my child? You were a child yourself.
You were 16, Jane.
You have a daughter.
Would you ever let someone take Bethany? No you'd die to protect her.
But I just let mine go.
[DOORS SLIDE OPEN.]
[WHISPERING.]
Hey.
Well, Reade was right.
I couldn't get anything off of Stuart's phone.
The motherboard was saturated, and it's it's a lost cause.
Not necessarily.
I'm telling you, the phone is mush.
This isn't a "leave it in rice" situation Yeah, but nobody knows that.
So, what if we bluff? Claim that we found something? See if anyone at the FBI tampers with it.
Ooh, that's good.
We can flush out whoever is covering up Stuart's murder.
[WHISPERING.]
Exactly.
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING.]
You're gonna wanna see this.
The rape kit DNA results came back.
Yasmine Petrushev, the woman who was working at the Kazahrusian embassy at the time of her attack, was raped by the late Ivan Valdemaras.
- As in "King Valdemaras"? - [PATTERSON.]
Yeah.
In January of 1997, during the time of her assault, King Ivan was stateside attending a natural resources summit.
How does the FBI have King Ivan's DNA? They don't, the CIA does we stole some samples while he was having bypass surgery in Switzerland.
[WELLER.]
Wait, the king died this year, though.
Didn't his younger brother take over the throne? [ZAPATA.]
That's right.
Uh, the team at Yasmine's apartment says it's been ransacked.
There's a trail of blood leading outside.
They also found these.
Yasmine has a son.
Wait.
You don't think that that's [PATTERSON.]
His name's Vanya Petrushev.
Born October 8, 1997, nine months after Yasmine was raped.
Attacking those evidence facilities, coming after him at his home, they're trying to erase all record of him.
Because he's the rightful heir to the Kazahrusian throne.
This is a war of succession.
And if they're willing to kill cops just to destroy DNA evidence, imagine what they'll do just to get that kid.
[GUNS COCKING.]
[RUSSIAN ACCENT.]
There are no rules, understand? We do whatever is necessary until the boy is dead.
In addition to bein the heir to the Kazahrusian throne, Vanya is also a student at NYU.
Or was the blood found at the apartment could have been his.
Negative forensics said the blood belonged to his mother, Yasmine.
Matched the sample from her rape kit.
All right, so where are on finding him? [ZAPATA.]
We got a hit on our APB.
Yasmine's car was spotted at a gas station in East Orange, New Jersey, and local cops found more blood at the gas station bathroom.
- So, they're on the run.
- Looks like it.
They ditched their phones, and security cams show Yasmine buying burners.
She's trying to protect her son.
Well, if it isn't all my favorite people! What the hell are you doing here, Weitz? Oh, no, that's Congressman Weitz, and I was invited.
Well, don't look at me, darlings.
- I called him.
- What? Congressman Weitz is a member of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
He's their expert on Kazahrus.
I mean, somebody has to be, right? But listen, before we get into this whole Kazahrusian nightmare, I wanna say thank you, sincerely.
I never would have made it to Congress so fast if it weren't for all of you.
Oh, how is Nas, by the way? Did she land on her feet? [SCOFFS.]
This better be worth it.
Patterson, keep digging in on the kid and his mother's whereabouts.
The rest of us are in with Weitz.
I'm with her.
I missed you, too.
All right, three things you need to know about Kazahrus.
Number one, they are an absolute monarchy, which means The order of succession is based solely on heredity.
I think most of us studied civics.
Number two, they are a crucial US ally.
Without them, bye-bye, natural gas.
How does this help us find the kid? Number three, their new king makes Stalin look like Santa Claus.
So, he ordered the hit on Vanya? Oh, without a doubt.
Meet King Cyrus Valdemaras, the brother of late King Ivan.
And this is what happens when you piss Cyrus off.
Ohh.
I remember this.
Guy used sarin gas on his own people.
Decimated a village for good measure.
Oh, my God.
Cyrus is not exactly known for precision warfare.
So, anyone in Vanya's vicinity Has a target on their back.
[WEITZ.]
And we have a base in Kazahrus with 1,800 American soldiers on it, and we need to keep it that way.
We lose that base, we destabilize the region.
But I don't get it how did Cyrus even find out about the boy? Ivan died two months ago.
Word is he made a deathbed confession.
Why would he do that? Cyrus and Ivan had a bitter rivalry.
And what better way to twist the knife than tell your little brother he's being passed over.
- Exactly.
- Only, instead of conceding to Vanya, Cyrus ordered his assassination.
So we need to find this kid before Cyrus' hitmen do.
I'll call Homeland Security, you three work together, try to ID his kill squad and shut 'em down.
[KNOCK ON DOOR.]
You wanted to see me? Take a seat, Edgar.
First name that's never a good sign.
I'm just worried about you, that's all.
I heard you and Zapata had a little fight this morning.
Oh, this place is worse than high school.
What's going on with you two? Nothing.
She saw me with West, and she's a busybody, so Is she the sort of busybody who can keep her mouth shut? - Can you trust her? - Of course, yeah.
But it doesn't matter.
I didn't tell her why I met with West.
I'd be inclined to keep it that way, if I were you.
Don't worry about Tasha.
She's a friend.
Well, so am I.
I just don't wanna see you get burned.
Thanks to the magic of social media, we figured out that Vanya has a girlfriend.
And this is relevant, why? Because Vanya sent her this just 12 minutes ago.
Hey, it's me.
I'm sorry I took off.
It's just temporary.
Um, I can't really say anything else right now, but I love you.
Aw, that's sweet, but I still don't see why this is relevant.
Vanya and his mom ditched their phones and bought burners, so I can't track them directly.
But you can track 'em through this message.
Bingo.
It looks like he took this video in a motel, so I scoured the background for any clues.
- And see these drapes? - How can you not? When I did a comprehensive image search for this fabric, I discovered that they are exclusively made for the Edgewood Suites hotel chain.
Okay, so how many of those are within close radius - to their last known location? - Three.
Jane and I'll head to the one closest to the gas station.
Yasmine was wounded, so they can't get too far.
I'll send teams to the other two.
Keep us updated.
Do you get it yet, Matthew? Or do you need me to run you through that again? [SIREN WHOOPING.]
Do you think Vanya knows about who his father was? How he was conceived? If these people get to them before we do Don't worry, Jane.
They won't.
We're gonna get to them first.
We're gonna keep 'em safe, I promise.
And what about my daughter? Who's looking out for her? I have to find her, Kurt.
I have to know she's okay.
[CELL PHONE RINGING.]
Patterson, what do you got? You're headed to the right spot.
They're in Room 317.
Copy that.
[SIREN WHOOPING.]
FBI! Stay back! Leave her alone! We're the FBI.
Now, drop that weapon.
I said, stay back! Hey, we're here to help you.
Yeah? Like those other men? No, we are here to protect you from them.
They are on their way, so we need to get you and your mom out of here now.
[GROANING.]
Vanya, she's going to die.
Stand back! Stand back! Vanya, we're here to help you.
But I need you to put that gun down.
I don't believe you.
Okay.
Here.
See? We're not here to hurt you.
Okay? I know that you're afraid.
But I also know that you wanna help your mom.
And I know the feeling of having someone that you love and you trust more than anyone in the world hurt.
[YASMINE GRUNTING.]
Let me try and stop the bleeding, okay? - Okay.
- Let me do that.
[WELLER.]
Put the gun down.
Put it down.
- Put it on the bed.
- [SOBBING.]
We need to get him out of here.
Okay, we need to get her to a hospital.
[DISTANT SIREN.]
Weitz just called in the Diplomatic Security Service, so between them and our guys, this place is completely secure.
Good, we can't take any chances.
- How's Yasmine? - [SIGHS.]
I don't know.
She's still in surgery.
Poor kid.
How you holding up, Vanya? I used to ask about him when I was little.
"Where is my dad? Where is he? Is he Superman?" [SCOFFS.]
So stupid.
You were just a kid.
I kept asking, though.
And then, when I turned 18 she finally told me about the attack.
Did she ever tell you who he was? Last night, she came to my dorm.
That's when she told me who he was.
[SIGHS.]
I'm so sorry, Vanya.
I know it probably feels like everything's different now, like you don't know who you are anymore.
I know exactly who I am.
I'm my mother's son.
And whatever that man did to her doesn't make him my father.
He's he's nothing to me.
And I'm never going to Kazahrus.
I'm staying here, and I'm looking after her, just like she looked after me.
[APPROACHING FOOTSTEPS.]
- Any luck? - Nada.
Not even a partial print.
I'm starting to think that whoever hit Yasmine's house doesn't have fingers.
[COMPUTER BEEPS.]
Okay someone just logged into our server to access our bogus phone data.
Here we go.
Moment of truth.
[KEYBOARD CLACKING.]
What, who is it? - It's Reade.
- No.
It can't be.
It that doesn't make any sense.
The test is flawed.
He's out of the office.
He has every right to review evidence.
Does he also have every right to destroy it? Look, he didn't even open the files.
He just logged in and erased the last 50 uploads to the server.
Come on.
Reade would never be dumb enough to He's covering his tracks.
[BEEP.]
They say they're corrupted by a system malfunction.
I know my server.
This is not a malfunction, and it's no coincidence.
There has to be an explanation.
Reade is family.
So was Borden.
How do you feel, Mom? Do you need anything? No.
I have everything I need.
Gonna get you some water.
No, Vanya.
No.
It's okay.
I'll go with him.
Come on.
Thank you for keeping him safe.
[SCOFFS.]
You did that.
You were so strong for him, Yasmine.
I did what any mother would.
Vanya comes from darkness but he is my light.
Please, promise me you will protect him.
I'll protect you both.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
Who did that? Who did that? How long till your constituents realize they made a terrible mistake? Ah, actually, my re-election is a lock.
I'm polling great.
Polls have been wrong before.
Mm? Look at this face.
Say, bro, I wouldn't piss her off if I were you.
She works for the CIA.
Now, you really want her spying on you? [WEITZ.]
Wait, wait.
Ooh, sorry, congressman stuff.
I gotta [CLICKS TONGUE.]
Can you believe anyone voted for that fool? [SIGHS.]
Um, about this morning.
I know you were looking out for me, and I I appreciate it.
But you gotta trust me too.
- I do.
- Good.
I think I've earned it.
And if there's anything I can't handle, I'll be sure to tell you.
Okay.
You can't support the Patriots.
You grew up in New York.
Uh, yeah, but the Patriots win.
Oh, what's wrong? Jones where are you? Why aren't you outside her door? Jones, where the hell [GUNSHOT.]
Agh! [GASPS.]
Vanya! Vanya! - Shh shh! Shh! - Vanya! [WHISPERING.]
Don't make a sound.
Stay right here.
Cyrus's hitmen are inside, and they're dressed as FBI.
We gotta get Vanya and Yasmine out of here now.
[DISTANT GUNSHOTS.]
- Come on! This whole hospital's under attack! We're under siege! [INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER.]
[WHISPERING.]
They're on FBI comms.
We're taking Vanya to the roof.
Repeat, we're taking the asset to the roof.
We need a heli evac, now.
Wait, hold on, we can't leave my mom! - [WELLER.]
We're not.
- Vanya! Let's go, let's go, let's go! - Come on, go! - Go! [YASMINE GROANING.]
Yasmine, come here.
There you go.
Stevens, open that door! I thought you were taking the boy to the roof.
The chopper's on its way.
The Kazahrusians are on our comms, all right? We fed them false intel.
Give me the keys.
All right.
Take that team up to the roof and take out the mercenaries, move.
[STEVENS.]
All right, let's move! [TIRES SCREECHING.]
It's not Reade.
What? How do you know? You know how Reade plays Wizardville? Yeah.
Well, the program has a slight back door-ish.
It's super not a big deal, but before you point fingers, you should know that there was no way to code it without being able to spy on users.
Or, that's totally not the word I wanted to use.
I have never used it until now.
- This seemed like an emergency - Patterson, I don't care! What did you find? [SIGHS.]
Okay.
Reade's supposed login occurred from a computer terminal within the FBI, but he wasn't even in the building.
He was at Chris & John's Coffee in Midtown.
Someone used his login.
He's getting framed.
[PHONE BUZZING.]
Weller? Everything okay? No, it's not.
We need backup immediately.
The Kazahrusians just hit the hospital.
What? How? We had FBI and DSS teams I don't know, but we've got Vanya and his mom.
All right, we got 'em out in time.
We're headed [ZAPATA.]
Headed south on Bronx River Parkway.
We're tracking your cell.
I just got word.
How they doing? - We're on with Weller now.
- Oh, what's going on? The DSS just told me that We're on it! Weller, I'm dispatching a convoy.
They're 15 minutes out.
Keep moving.
They will find you.
Copy that.
Just keep us updated.
I can't believe it.
I'm calling the Foreign Affairs Committee immediately.
- Hey, it's gonna be okay.
- Yeah.
We're taking you to a safe house.
No! [TIRES SCREECHING.]
[YASMINE.]
Why are we stopping? - Spike strip.
- Yeah.
Kurt! Everyone down! Get down! Get down! Get down! [MAN SHOUTS.]
[YASMINE GASPING.]
[JANE.]
Stay in the car.
Stay down.
Cover me! Uhh! Agh! [WELLER.]
No! Get out! [YASMINE SHRIEKING.]
Get out, get out! Come here, come here! [VANYA.]
You okay? Everyone okay? Nice work.
[ELEVATOR BELL CHIMES.]
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
[HIRST.]
Holy hell, am I glad to see you.
We're glad to be seen.
- Where's the mother? - Yasmine's in with medical.
They're redoing some of her sutures, but she's gonna be fine.
Thanks to you guys.
I mean, really, you guys are seriously badass.
Please don't, it'll go straight to their heads.
[WELLER CHUCKLES.]
What did you find? I figured out who used Reade's login.
I know who's trying to set him up for Stuart's murder.
Who? It was Hirst.
How can you be so sure Hirst is the one who framed Reade? I run biometric software in the backgrounds of all of our computers.
You want answers or not? I want you to consider the CIA.
All right, what does the program show us? The way each person uses a computer can be read like a unique digital signature.
So, the way you type, the way you click, the speed, the force So, you tracked and analyzed everyone's mouse - and keystroke habits? - Yeah.
So, she logged in as Reade, but it's her biometric signature.
So, after she logged in, she deleted the evidence off of our servers.
Innocent people don't do that.
If she thought she was erasing the contents of Stuart's phone, then she definitely has something to hide.
Do you think she killed Stuart? Or she's covering up for whoever did.
You think she also tampered with Stuart's Kinga, too? She definitely has the reach.
So, what else is Hirst hiding? She was real protective of "Mr.
Short Sell" Kevin Loewe a few cases ago.
Kevin Loewe's one of the biggest names on Wall Street.
This evidence better be ironclad.
She could have easily downgraded the anonymous tip that pointed to him.
Yeah, but why? I mean, does he handle her investments or something? [KEYBOARD CLACKING.]
They knew each other.
What? That's Hirst.
"Law Review Editor-In-Chief Eleanor Hirst with Managing Editor Kim Loewe.
" That is Kevin Loewe's first wife.
They all went to Georgia together.
That's a pretty big detail not to mention.
She's been manipulating tattoo cases.
Because some of them point to her.
While you guys were out playing "Street Fighter," I was busy trying to prevent a major geopolitical crisis.
King Cyrus is dead.
- What? - Yeah.
Two hours ago, he was hanged at the behest of the Kazahrusian elites.
- Good.
- Nope, actually, not good.
Now, the entire region is destabilized.
The Kazahrusian are demanding their heir.
They want Vanya to come lead.
- Absolutely not.
- Well, not your call to make.
And what if he doesn't want to go? Well, then the Kazahrusians will assume we're holding him against his will.
Our base outside the capital will be under siege before nightfall.
One of the oligarchs jockeying for power will attempt a coup.
Chaos, rioting, massive casualties Yeah, we get it.
Or, Vanya can get on a plane.
No.
This isn't fair.
He's 20 years old, and he doesn't want this.
Jane that boy needs to hear his options and know what's at stake.
You, of all people, should understand that.
[WELLER.]
No one can force you to leave, Vanya.
[JANE.]
I know what it's like to live a life that's not your own.
You don't have to do this.
You You don't have to go.
Yes, I do.
This, this is how I make things right.
My whole life, I've heard my grandparents talk about the horrors of Kazahrus.
All the violence friends jailed for criticizing the monarch, massive food shortages.
I mean, they risked everything to come here.
They sacrificed for my mom, just like she sacrificed for me.
So, what, now it's your turn? What if I can make things better for these people? Don't I have to try? What part of "I need you to trust me" didn't you understand? [ZAPATA.]
Look, we're sorry.
But aren't you glad we're onto Hirst? Are you kidding me right now? Reade, come on, she used your login.
- Allegedly! - No, it was her.
My biometric software Is what, infallible, just like you? You want a gold star for planting sham evidence on a server so you could spy on other agents? That's not how we do things at the FBI.
This is bigger than that, Reade.
Hirst has been looking out for me since I was in Quantico.
I trust her, which is more than I can say for either one of you right now.
Do you guys realize this is exactly what Roman wanted? He promised we'd be at each other's throats, and look where we are right now, playing right into his hands.
Okay, would you at least consider Some real evidence? Absolutely, Patterson.
Why don't you bring me some? Until then, I'm done playing make-believe.
Show yourselves out.
They're too close.
He doesn't wanna see it.
I hope that's all.
Otherwise, he's covering for her.
Whatcha thinkin' about? [CHUCKLES.]
Nothing.
You? How are you doing? Really.
[SIGHS.]
Today was hard.
I can't stop thinking I have a daughter.
- Jane - I changed my mind about finding her.
After seeing how Vanya's life was upended, I just I want her to be happy.
And something tells me that'll be a lot easier if she doesn't know I exist.
Whatever you want.
Sir, she was just here.
You must have seen her.
Can you ask around for me? Please, can you just take this photo [SPEAKING GERMAN.]
What I'll check.
Thank you.
And thank you.
Don't worry about it.
We're looking for the same person.
Jane Doe? Or Alice Kruger, Remi.
She has a lot of names.
Mine's Avery.
How do you know Jane? She's my mother.
