﻿1
00:00:01,273 --> 00:00:03,308
No. This is ridiculous.
Just come home.

2
00:00:03,612 --> 00:00:04,744
I called a lawyer, Paul.

3
00:00:04,746 --> 00:00:06,519
He said we shouldn't be talking.

4
00:00:06,544 --> 00:00:08,544
A lawyer? No, Deb. I'm sorry.

5
00:00:08,546 --> 00:00:10,846
I know you're sorry, Paul.

6
00:00:10,848 --> 00:00:13,966
Mrs. Evans?
This is Wendy from E.I.C. Trust.

7
00:00:13,968 --> 00:00:16,519
I'm following up
on our previous conversation.

8
00:00:16,521 --> 00:00:19,021
Good news. It appears
you are not overdrawn.

9
00:00:19,023 --> 00:00:21,891
Over my dead body, Susan.

10
00:00:21,893 --> 00:00:24,360
Mom,
it's a retirement community.

11
00:00:24,362 --> 00:00:25,728
I'm not gonna play bingo all day

12
00:00:25,730 --> 00:00:27,062
just to have someone wipe my...

13
00:00:27,064 --> 00:00:28,531
...a fever

14
00:00:28,533 --> 00:00:30,366
and won't be able to go on the...

15
00:00:33,571 --> 00:00:35,204
Hi, Grandpa!

16
00:00:35,206 --> 00:00:37,156
Oh, hey, there, lovelies.

17
00:00:38,743 --> 00:00:41,126
Afternoon.
Do you have time to take a li...

18
00:00:43,581 --> 00:00:45,414
Hey, I got your message.

19
00:00:45,416 --> 00:00:47,164
- Is it true?
- Yeah.

20
00:00:47,166 --> 00:00:48,584
Came today. $2.2 million.

21
00:00:48,586 --> 00:00:50,252
I've never seen a check that big.

22
00:00:50,254 --> 00:00:52,671
Then... it's done, right?

23
00:00:52,673 --> 00:00:55,299
This is great. We should celebrate.

24
00:00:55,324 --> 00:00:56,991
No, no. Not yet.

25
00:00:56,993 --> 00:00:59,710
Uh, listen, I think
we might have a situation.

26
00:00:59,712 --> 00:01:01,162
What situation?

27
00:01:01,164 --> 00:01:02,630
It's about the body.

28
00:01:04,112 --> 00:01:11,084
Synced & corrected by -robtor-

29
00:01:12,152 --> 00:01:13,602
Play it again.

30
00:01:13,812 --> 00:01:15,695
911. What's your emergency?

31
00:01:15,697 --> 00:01:17,146
I saw a man with a gun!

32
00:01:17,148 --> 00:01:18,982
On West Fourth near the Red Brau Tavern.

33
00:01:18,984 --> 00:01:20,149
Can you describe him?

34
00:01:20,151 --> 00:01:21,567
White guy in his 50s.

35
00:01:21,569 --> 00:01:23,870
He's wearing a suit. Tan suit and a hat.

36
00:01:25,790 --> 00:01:27,790
Our contact in the department

37
00:01:27,792 --> 00:01:29,909
says the caller didn't identify herself.

38
00:01:29,911 --> 00:01:32,078
Someone identified me to the caller.

39
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:33,546
We both know who and why.

40
00:01:33,548 --> 00:01:35,581
You have no proof it was Elizabeth.

41
00:01:35,583 --> 00:01:37,667
No. And I hope I'm wrong,

42
00:01:37,669 --> 00:01:40,003
but she's hunting for my past.

43
00:01:40,005 --> 00:01:43,056
And putting me here makes it
more likely she'll find it.

44
00:01:43,058 --> 00:01:45,141
Raymond, you're facing the death penalty.

45
00:01:45,143 --> 00:01:47,727
She would never put you in that position.

46
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,681
Try to identify the person on the tape.

47
00:01:51,683 --> 00:01:53,983
And please reach out to the Task Force.

48
00:01:53,985 --> 00:01:55,401
I have a case.

49
00:01:55,403 --> 00:01:57,520
Minister D?

50
00:01:57,522 --> 00:01:58,988
A serial blackmailer.

51
00:01:58,990 --> 00:02:00,857
He takes his name from the villain

52
00:02:00,859 --> 00:02:04,027
in Edgar Allan Poe's
"The Purloined Letter."

53
00:02:04,029 --> 00:02:05,611
However, unlike his namesake,

54
00:02:05,613 --> 00:02:07,413
this man's never been identified.

55
00:02:07,415 --> 00:02:08,865
Why now?

56
00:02:08,867 --> 00:02:10,533
Today of all days?

57
00:02:10,535 --> 00:02:12,085
Because I'm innocent.

58
00:02:12,087 --> 00:02:13,870
And he can prove it.

59
00:02:13,872 --> 00:02:15,121
How?

60
00:02:15,123 --> 00:02:18,624
The explanation will be obvious
once you've found him.

61
00:02:18,626 --> 00:02:21,044
But as my trial begins within the hour,

62
00:02:21,046 --> 00:02:24,213
I'd appreciate it
if you would investigate now

63
00:02:24,215 --> 00:02:25,715
and ask questions later.

64
00:02:25,717 --> 00:02:28,801
You say this Minister D
can prove your innocence.

65
00:02:28,803 --> 00:02:30,720
Can he also prove who's guilty?

66
00:02:30,722 --> 00:02:32,438
Yes.

67
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,357
So you know who the real traitor is?

68
00:02:34,359 --> 00:02:35,775
Someone I trusted.

69
00:02:35,777 --> 00:02:39,812
As is the traitor
who turned me in to the police.

70
00:02:39,814 --> 00:02:42,365
Have you found out who that is yet?

71
00:02:42,367 --> 00:02:44,317
Someone close.

72
00:02:44,319 --> 00:02:46,704
Traitors always are.

73
00:02:48,490 --> 00:02:50,656
Tell me about Minister D.

74
00:02:51,042 --> 00:02:52,458
According to Reddington,

75
00:02:52,460 --> 00:02:55,161
Minister D gathers
incriminating information

76
00:02:55,163 --> 00:02:57,080
and then uses it to extort people.

77
00:02:57,082 --> 00:03:01,134
In 2004, he discovered
an insider trading scheme

78
00:03:01,136 --> 00:03:04,470
and used the information
to extort $4 million

79
00:03:04,472 --> 00:03:06,923
from a pair of traders at Koji Analytics.

80
00:03:06,925 --> 00:03:10,676
Six years ago, he blackmailed
Senator Constance Holsted

81
00:03:10,678 --> 00:03:12,812
after finding proof of a kickback scheme

82
00:03:12,814 --> 00:03:14,731
between the senator's husband

83
00:03:14,733 --> 00:03:16,516
and a major real-estate developer.

84
00:03:16,518 --> 00:03:17,817
It's about the body.

85
00:03:17,819 --> 00:03:19,318
What are you talking about?

86
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,487
Where we put it isn't safe.

87
00:03:21,489 --> 00:03:24,107
Did Reddington say how
Minister D collects his intel?

88
00:03:24,109 --> 00:03:26,776
No. But he made it seem as if he has

89
00:03:26,778 --> 00:03:29,278
compromising information
on just about everyone.

90
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,664
Which is why Reddington
brought us the case.

91
00:03:31,666 --> 00:03:32,634
What do you mean?

92
00:03:32,634 --> 00:03:36,085
Minister D gathers information
to extort people.

93
00:03:36,087 --> 00:03:38,287
With Reddington about to go
to trial, it stands to reason

94
00:03:38,289 --> 00:03:42,175
that he wants to extort members
of the jury or the judge.

95
00:03:42,177 --> 00:03:44,127
Maybe he thinks the Minister
can help with that.

96
00:03:44,129 --> 00:03:46,462
It's a risky move
if he believes he's innocent.

97
00:03:46,464 --> 00:03:48,214
Which we all know he's not.

98
00:03:48,216 --> 00:03:48,987
Do we?

99
00:03:48,987 --> 00:03:51,017
You think Reddington is innocent?

100
00:03:51,019 --> 00:03:52,606
- I think this guy could be.
- This "guy"?

101
00:03:52,606 --> 00:03:55,772
I think what Ressler is trying to say...

102
00:03:55,774 --> 00:03:58,107
- Yes, please translate.
- ...is, we won't know the truth

103
00:03:58,109 --> 00:03:59,392
until we find the Minister.

104
00:03:59,394 --> 00:04:01,727
Did Reddington give
any indication where to start?

105
00:04:01,729 --> 00:04:03,646
Yes. With Sayantan Shah.

106
00:04:03,648 --> 00:04:05,565
- The Taxi Tycoon?
- In 2006,

107
00:04:05,567 --> 00:04:08,284
Reddington loaned him money
to pay off a blackmailer

108
00:04:08,286 --> 00:04:09,869
he believes was Minister D.

109
00:04:10,371 --> 00:04:12,956
Talk to Shah. See what he knows.

110
00:04:13,625 --> 00:04:15,241
He loaned me money. I paid him back.

111
00:04:15,243 --> 00:04:16,492
Is that a crime?

112
00:04:16,494 --> 00:04:18,294
To do business with a wanted fugitive

113
00:04:18,296 --> 00:04:19,495
and not report it?

114
00:04:19,497 --> 00:04:21,047
Yeah. That's a whole lot of crimes.

115
00:04:21,883 --> 00:04:23,567
I was being blackmailed.

116
00:04:23,567 --> 00:04:25,751
I didn't have the money.
What was I supposed to do?

117
00:04:25,753 --> 00:04:27,136
I can't just walk into a bank.

118
00:04:27,138 --> 00:04:30,223
Relax, Mr. Shah.
We're not here to arrest you.

119
00:04:30,225 --> 00:04:32,842
Or to ask you to cooperate
against Mr. Reddington.

120
00:04:32,844 --> 00:04:35,011
We don't need your help
to make a case against him.

121
00:04:35,013 --> 00:04:36,679
What we do need is your help

122
00:04:36,681 --> 00:04:38,764
to make a case against
the man who blackmailed you.

123
00:04:38,766 --> 00:04:41,400
We'll ignore your business
with Raymond Reddington

124
00:04:41,402 --> 00:04:44,320
if you tell us about
your business with Minister D.

125
00:04:44,322 --> 00:04:46,189
Delivery for Peter DeReamer.

126
00:04:46,191 --> 00:04:48,898
And the reasons
I was being blackmailed...

127
00:04:48,900 --> 00:04:50,193
You'll ignore those, too?

128
00:04:50,195 --> 00:04:51,861
Our interest is Minister D.

129
00:04:51,863 --> 00:04:55,698
If you help us, we'll look past
your little indiscretions.

130
00:04:57,202 --> 00:04:59,418
I came to my office one day after lunch,

131
00:04:59,420 --> 00:05:01,671
and there was this envelope.

132
00:05:01,673 --> 00:05:05,208
Inside was a transcript
of a phone call I had made

133
00:05:05,210 --> 00:05:08,177
detailing certain business arrangements

134
00:05:08,179 --> 00:05:11,214
that might have been
misunderstood by my partners.

135
00:05:11,216 --> 00:05:12,715
Or the IRS.

136
00:05:12,717 --> 00:05:15,384
A few days later,
I get a call instructing me

137
00:05:15,386 --> 00:05:18,888
to deliver $400,000 in cash.

138
00:05:18,890 --> 00:05:21,724
That transcript was word for word.

139
00:05:21,726 --> 00:05:23,776
I hired a team.

140
00:05:23,778 --> 00:05:26,562
They found this buried in the phone lines

141
00:05:26,564 --> 00:05:28,648
of my apartment building.

142
00:05:29,734 --> 00:05:31,400
It's a tap.

143
00:05:31,402 --> 00:05:33,069
He was listening.

144
00:05:37,542 --> 00:05:38,875
Good morning.

145
00:05:38,877 --> 00:05:40,660
Unless the parties

146
00:05:40,662 --> 00:05:42,745
have any last issues
they wish to address,

147
00:05:42,747 --> 00:05:44,881
I'll ask the clerk
to bring down the jury.

148
00:05:44,883 --> 00:05:47,250
As you're kind enough to inquire,

149
00:05:47,252 --> 00:05:48,751
I do have an issue

150
00:05:48,753 --> 00:05:51,387
that compels me to ask for a continuance.

151
00:05:51,389 --> 00:05:53,422
And what, pray tell, is that?

152
00:05:53,424 --> 00:05:55,925
A key piece of evidence
has not yet materialized.

153
00:05:55,927 --> 00:05:57,426
I expect it to shortly.

154
00:05:57,428 --> 00:06:00,229
I have investigators working
to locate it as we speak.

155
00:06:00,231 --> 00:06:03,099
By "investigators," I can
only assume defense counsel

156
00:06:03,101 --> 00:06:06,602
means his very own team of FBI agents.

157
00:06:06,604 --> 00:06:08,354
Is that true?

158
00:06:08,356 --> 00:06:13,409
My cooperation agreement
continues on a voluntary basis.

159
00:06:13,411 --> 00:06:14,911
I've steered the Bureau

160
00:06:14,913 --> 00:06:17,280
in the direction of a wanton criminal.

161
00:06:17,282 --> 00:06:21,334
Mr. Sima may not appreciate
that an ancillary benefit

162
00:06:21,336 --> 00:06:24,170
of catching said criminal
is that he is in possession

163
00:06:24,172 --> 00:06:27,006
of information that
will prove my innocence,

164
00:06:27,008 --> 00:06:30,626
but anyone with
an actual interest in the truth

165
00:06:30,628 --> 00:06:32,929
would, I'm sure, see a continuance

166
00:06:32,931 --> 00:06:35,932
as a prerequisite for a just outcome.

167
00:06:35,934 --> 00:06:38,301
A just outcome
would have been the defendant

168
00:06:38,303 --> 00:06:41,470
accepting our settlement offer
of life in prison.

169
00:06:41,472 --> 00:06:43,856
The government was willing
to take the death penalty

170
00:06:43,858 --> 00:06:45,975
off the table, and you rejected it?

171
00:06:45,977 --> 00:06:49,312
Yes. As any innocent man would.

172
00:06:49,314 --> 00:06:52,648
Mr. Reddington, your motion
for a continuance is denied.

173
00:06:52,650 --> 00:06:55,151
If exculpatory evidence surfaces,

174
00:06:55,153 --> 00:06:58,237
you can introduce it at trial,
or, if necessary, on appeal.

175
00:06:58,790 --> 00:07:01,824
We'll bring the jury in for
opening arguments after lunch.

176
00:07:06,627 --> 00:07:08,428
- What do we have?
- Okay, so, the device

177
00:07:08,430 --> 00:07:09,680
Agents Keen and Ressler identified

178
00:07:09,682 --> 00:07:11,339
was some kind of splitter.

179
00:07:11,364 --> 00:07:13,407
It duplicated the signal
from Shah's phone,

180
00:07:13,432 --> 00:07:15,515
sending one signal
to the number Shah dialed

181
00:07:15,540 --> 00:07:17,376
and another to a different location.

182
00:07:17,376 --> 00:07:18,876
Some sort of listening post.

183
00:07:18,878 --> 00:07:19,993
Now, I couldn't trace the calls,

184
00:07:19,995 --> 00:07:21,879
but we did find similar devices.

185
00:07:21,881 --> 00:07:23,881
And get this...

186
00:07:23,883 --> 00:07:26,667
They were all monitoring
landlines and cell towers

187
00:07:26,669 --> 00:07:28,635
operated by the VeraCom Phone Company.

188
00:07:28,637 --> 00:07:31,672
According to VeraCom's files,
only a handful of individuals

189
00:07:31,674 --> 00:07:33,340
serviced the sites
where we discovered taps.

190
00:07:33,342 --> 00:07:36,260
Three joined the company after
the first reported incident,

191
00:07:36,262 --> 00:07:39,680
one left the country
to do missionary work in 2013,

192
00:07:39,682 --> 00:07:42,182
and another died of a heart
attack just eight months ago.

193
00:07:42,184 --> 00:07:45,152
- Which leaves...?
- Elijah Bailey.

194
00:07:45,154 --> 00:07:46,603
The name's an alias.

195
00:07:46,605 --> 00:07:48,322
Taxes filed under a stolen Social.

196
00:07:48,324 --> 00:07:50,657
Engineering degrees also forged.

197
00:07:50,659 --> 00:07:51,692
What about a location?

198
00:07:51,694 --> 00:07:53,494
An address in Arlington.

199
00:07:55,998 --> 00:07:57,948
What's he doing here?

200
00:07:57,950 --> 00:07:59,366
He's here to see Agent Ressler.

201
00:07:59,368 --> 00:08:02,086
Keen, Navabi, run down
that Arlington address.

202
00:08:02,088 --> 00:08:03,704
Ressler, come with me.

203
00:08:05,007 --> 00:08:07,124
So, what's this about?

204
00:08:07,126 --> 00:08:09,042
I need to prep you for trial.

205
00:08:09,044 --> 00:08:10,844
I'm calling you as a witness.

206
00:08:10,846 --> 00:08:13,013
The work of the Task Force
remains classified.

207
00:08:13,015 --> 00:08:14,848
I won't be asking about it.

208
00:08:14,850 --> 00:08:17,468
Back when the FBI was hunting Reddington

209
00:08:17,470 --> 00:08:18,802
instead of working for him,

210
00:08:18,804 --> 00:08:20,387
you ran point on the investigation.

211
00:08:20,389 --> 00:08:22,890
He's on trial for acts of
treason he allegedly committed

212
00:08:22,892 --> 00:08:25,109
long before I took over
that investigation.

213
00:08:25,111 --> 00:08:27,060
We all know they're not alleged.

214
00:08:27,062 --> 00:08:30,697
And I wouldn't be asking you
if I had anyone else to ask,

215
00:08:30,699 --> 00:08:33,317
but your predecessors have all passed.

216
00:08:33,319 --> 00:08:34,451
You're the ranking officer.

217
00:08:34,453 --> 00:08:36,153
Why'd you wait so long to let us know?

218
00:08:36,155 --> 00:08:37,654
Because I don't trust you.

219
00:08:37,656 --> 00:08:40,040
I know you're working a case
to help him at trial.

220
00:08:40,042 --> 00:08:41,959
You know how I know?

221
00:08:41,961 --> 00:08:43,994
He told us in court.

222
00:08:43,996 --> 00:08:46,079
Agent Ressler, once I put you under oath,

223
00:08:46,081 --> 00:08:49,583
your loyalty will be
to the truth, not Reddington.

224
00:08:49,585 --> 00:08:51,135
Perjure yourself even once,

225
00:08:51,137 --> 00:08:55,088
and I will make sure
you join your boss in prison.

226
00:08:55,090 --> 00:08:56,673
FBI!

227
00:09:00,729 --> 00:09:02,095
Clear!

228
00:09:04,767 --> 00:09:06,099
Clear here!

229
00:09:07,102 --> 00:09:08,769
Clear over here!

230
00:09:12,942 --> 00:09:14,241
Clear here!

231
00:09:25,004 --> 00:09:27,671
There must be 10,000 tapes in here.

232
00:10:11,333 --> 00:10:12,799
Hey there.

233
00:10:12,801 --> 00:10:14,835
How you doing, papito? Need a shave?

234
00:10:14,837 --> 00:10:16,136
I'm looking for a woman.

235
00:10:16,138 --> 00:10:17,721
She made a call from that payphone.

236
00:10:17,723 --> 00:10:19,840
It was a few weeks ago.
I have a date and time

237
00:10:19,842 --> 00:10:21,308
to check your security cameras.

238
00:10:21,310 --> 00:10:23,760
Memory's deleted every 48 hours.

239
00:10:23,762 --> 00:10:25,729
Maybe somebody saw something?

240
00:10:25,731 --> 00:10:27,347
Don't know. Maybe.

241
00:10:27,349 --> 00:10:30,183
I ain't seen nobody on that
phone in the time I been here.

242
00:10:30,185 --> 00:10:32,352
I can ask around, but no promises.

243
00:10:32,354 --> 00:10:35,989
Look, man, like I told you,
I don't know anything.

244
00:10:37,192 --> 00:10:38,942
Thanks for listening.

245
00:10:38,944 --> 00:10:40,027
Yeah, no problem.

246
00:10:54,376 --> 00:10:56,677
You the one been asking about that girl?

247
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:58,262
One who made the call?

248
00:10:58,264 --> 00:10:59,310
I am.

249
00:10:59,312 --> 00:11:00,590
Did you see something?

250
00:11:00,592 --> 00:11:02,549
If I did, what's in it for me?

251
00:11:02,551 --> 00:11:03,934
Maybe I could pay you.

252
00:11:03,936 --> 00:11:05,886
Maybe you could give me the money first.

253
00:11:05,888 --> 00:11:07,304
And maybe then I talk.

254
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,363
Did you see who made that call?

255
00:11:16,365 --> 00:11:17,397
Yeah.

256
00:11:17,399 --> 00:11:19,366
I did it.

257
00:11:19,368 --> 00:11:22,202
You cannot go to jail
to protect his secret.

258
00:11:22,204 --> 00:11:24,488
Sima may not ask anything
that requires me to lie.

259
00:11:24,490 --> 00:11:26,323
But if he does ask you to confirm

260
00:11:26,325 --> 00:11:28,292
that Raymond Reddington is the defendant,

261
00:11:28,294 --> 00:11:30,077
- you can't say "yes."
- If I say "no,"

262
00:11:30,079 --> 00:11:32,496
if I tell the truth,
he's gonna know that we know,

263
00:11:32,498 --> 00:11:33,997
and he'll do everything he can

264
00:11:33,999 --> 00:11:35,415
to keep us from learning
his true identity.

265
00:11:35,417 --> 00:11:37,417
If the only way for me
to find out who he really is

266
00:11:37,419 --> 00:11:40,304
is for the most honest person
I know to commit perjury,

267
00:11:40,306 --> 00:11:42,055
I don't want to know.

268
00:11:42,057 --> 00:11:43,590
If Reddington just...

269
00:11:43,592 --> 00:11:45,509
If he admitted that he was the imposter,

270
00:11:45,511 --> 00:11:47,010
the charges would be dropped.

271
00:11:47,012 --> 00:11:48,345
I mean, he's facing the death penalty,

272
00:11:48,347 --> 00:11:49,930
and, still, he says nothing.

273
00:11:49,932 --> 00:11:52,099
If he's okay with that, so am I.

274
00:11:52,101 --> 00:11:53,684
Besides, I'm not that honest.

275
00:11:53,686 --> 00:11:57,020
I said you were
the most honest person I know.

276
00:11:57,022 --> 00:11:58,822
The bar's pretty low.

277
00:11:58,824 --> 00:12:01,108
Look.

278
00:12:01,110 --> 00:12:02,442
You deserve an answer.

279
00:12:02,444 --> 00:12:04,494
And I'm not gonna be
the one who says something

280
00:12:04,496 --> 00:12:05,996
that keeps you from getting that.

281
00:12:05,998 --> 00:12:07,948
But if something were to happen to you

282
00:12:07,950 --> 00:12:12,953
because you did that,
I would never forgive myself.

283
00:12:25,905 --> 00:12:28,384
Hey. He uses a manual typewriter.

284
00:12:29,921 --> 00:12:31,060
Mm, who does?

285
00:12:31,060 --> 00:12:32,176
Our guy. The listener.

286
00:12:32,178 --> 00:12:33,406
Are you sitting in the dark?

287
00:12:33,407 --> 00:12:34,706
I had a migraine.

288
00:12:34,708 --> 00:12:36,975
Oh. I didn't know you got migraines.

289
00:12:36,977 --> 00:12:39,344
I didn't. Before.

290
00:12:40,580 --> 00:12:41,789
You okay?

291
00:12:42,875 --> 00:12:44,449
Uh, you were saying?

292
00:12:44,451 --> 00:12:46,484
Right, um...

293
00:12:46,486 --> 00:12:49,971
anyway, have you ever used
a manual typewriter?

294
00:12:49,996 --> 00:12:51,378
Yeah, it's impossible.

295
00:12:51,378 --> 00:12:53,637
Just to make a mark,
you have to slam on each key.

296
00:12:54,354 --> 00:12:57,705
Do you have a point, or are you
just being pointlessly adorable?

297
00:12:58,084 --> 00:13:00,084
All right, by slamming on each key,

298
00:13:00,086 --> 00:13:02,353
you leave a mark
on the paper and the ribbon.

299
00:13:02,355 --> 00:13:03,954
And after the ribbon is hit, it spools.

300
00:13:03,956 --> 00:13:05,322
So if you unspool it,

301
00:13:05,324 --> 00:13:07,458
you can see the last thing
Minister D typed.

302
00:13:07,460 --> 00:13:10,027
So you're saying you know
who his next target is?

303
00:13:10,029 --> 00:13:11,962
The next target is Peter DeReamer,

304
00:13:11,964 --> 00:13:14,698
who cheated on his wife
with a Mikela Pariente.

305
00:13:14,700 --> 00:13:16,274
He blackmailed him over an affair?

306
00:13:16,299 --> 00:13:17,965
- How original.
- Not the affair.

307
00:13:17,967 --> 00:13:19,100
The insurance.

308
00:13:19,102 --> 00:13:20,434
$2 million in his wife's name,

309
00:13:20,436 --> 00:13:22,069
which paid out when they killed her.

310
00:13:22,071 --> 00:13:25,222
Yesterday, Bailey recorded this.

311
00:13:25,224 --> 00:13:26,774
Hey, I got your message.

312
00:13:26,776 --> 00:13:28,609
- Is it true?
- Yeah.

313
00:13:28,611 --> 00:13:30,282
Came today. $2.2 million.

314
00:13:30,284 --> 00:13:31,664
I've never seen a check that big.

315
00:13:31,666 --> 00:13:34,215
Then... it's done, right?

316
00:13:34,217 --> 00:13:36,660
This is great. We should celebrate.

317
00:13:36,662 --> 00:13:38,331
No, no. Not yet.

318
00:13:38,356 --> 00:13:41,090
Uh, listen, I think
we might have a situation.

319
00:13:41,092 --> 00:13:42,292
What situation?

320
00:13:42,294 --> 00:13:43,326
It's about the body.

321
00:13:43,328 --> 00:13:44,394
What are you talking about?

322
00:13:44,396 --> 00:13:46,079
Where we put it isn't safe.

323
00:13:46,081 --> 00:13:47,964
She could be found.

324
00:13:47,966 --> 00:13:49,265
DeReamer. Where is he?

325
00:13:49,267 --> 00:13:50,733
The building manager
at Mikela's apartment

326
00:13:50,735 --> 00:13:52,402
saw him arrive 20 minutes ago.

327
00:13:52,404 --> 00:13:54,737
Keen, Navabi, get there.
Take them both into custody.

328
00:13:54,739 --> 00:13:56,239
See if they can lead us to Bailey.

329
00:13:56,241 --> 00:14:00,443
Agent Ressler, did you once
lead an FBI Task Force

330
00:14:00,445 --> 00:14:03,446
dedicated to killing or
capturing Raymond Reddington?

331
00:14:03,448 --> 00:14:06,282
Your Honor, I'm happy to
stipulate that Agent Ressler

332
00:14:06,284 --> 00:14:10,253
was the FBI agent who spent
the prime years of his career

333
00:14:10,255 --> 00:14:12,455
engaged in a futile game of whack-a-mole.

334
00:14:12,457 --> 00:14:16,407
Mr. Sima, we can dispense with
the foundational questions.

335
00:14:16,409 --> 00:14:17,667
Proceed.

336
00:14:18,257 --> 00:14:21,724
As the ranking officer
on that Reddington Task Force,

337
00:14:21,726 --> 00:14:24,901
were you familiar with
an incident that occurred

338
00:14:24,926 --> 00:14:28,694
involving the U.S.S. Gideon
in March of 1990?

339
00:14:28,696 --> 00:14:30,157
I was. Yes.

340
00:14:30,182 --> 00:14:32,898
The U.S.S. Gideon
was an Ohio-class submarine

341
00:14:32,900 --> 00:14:34,266
sunk by the Soviet Navy

342
00:14:34,268 --> 00:14:36,402
while on a secret mission
in the Barents Sea.

343
00:14:36,404 --> 00:14:39,939
134 men were on board. They all died.

344
00:14:39,941 --> 00:14:41,674
You say it was a secret mission.

345
00:14:41,676 --> 00:14:43,876
How did the Soviet Navy
find out about it?

346
00:14:43,878 --> 00:14:46,150
Because Raymond Reddington told them.

347
00:14:46,758 --> 00:14:50,540
Was the defendant the only one
who knew about the mission?

348
00:14:50,565 --> 00:14:52,850
Raymond Reddington was one of 16 people

349
00:14:52,852 --> 00:14:53,990
who were aware of it.

350
00:14:54,032 --> 00:14:55,565
12 Naval officers

351
00:14:55,567 --> 00:14:57,734
and four CIA operatives
on the Russia desk.

352
00:14:57,736 --> 00:15:00,537
If 16 people were aware of the mission,

353
00:15:00,539 --> 00:15:03,406
how can you be sure
the defendant was the informant?

354
00:15:03,408 --> 00:15:05,842
Two days before the sub was attacked,

355
00:15:05,844 --> 00:15:08,745
the Gideon's captain changed
course to avoid weather.

356
00:15:08,747 --> 00:15:11,414
The change was communicated
to an intelligence officer

357
00:15:11,416 --> 00:15:13,083
who was assigned to the mission.

358
00:15:13,085 --> 00:15:15,952
He was the only one of the 16
who knew the coordinates

359
00:15:15,954 --> 00:15:18,288
of the sub on the day in question.

360
00:15:18,290 --> 00:15:20,757
Who was that intelligence officer?

361
00:15:20,759 --> 00:15:22,659
Raymond Reddington.

362
00:15:22,661 --> 00:15:25,534
So, the defendant was the only one

363
00:15:25,559 --> 00:15:28,136
who knew the location of the submarine.

364
00:15:28,138 --> 00:15:31,336
That doesn't prove he told
the Russians how to find it.

365
00:15:31,361 --> 00:15:32,827
Why are you so certain that he did?

366
00:15:32,829 --> 00:15:36,481
Because a secure
KGB communiqué we intercepted

367
00:15:36,483 --> 00:15:38,199
indicated that Raymond Reddington

368
00:15:38,201 --> 00:15:40,668
provided the Russians
with the exact coordinates

369
00:15:40,670 --> 00:15:42,437
where the submarine was torpedoed.

370
00:15:42,439 --> 00:15:44,505
Mr. Ressler, I'm showing you a document

371
00:15:44,507 --> 00:15:46,941
that has previously been admitted

372
00:15:46,943 --> 00:15:49,610
as Government Exhibit 9.

373
00:15:49,612 --> 00:15:51,479
Is this the communiqué?

374
00:15:51,481 --> 00:15:52,430
It is.

375
00:15:52,432 --> 00:15:55,249
Please read it for the jury.

376
00:15:55,251 --> 00:15:57,849
"Lamprey indicates target diverted.

377
00:15:57,851 --> 00:15:59,858
Prior intel no longer actionable.

378
00:15:59,860 --> 00:16:01,689
New coordinates received."

379
00:16:02,137 --> 00:16:03,537
Do you want me to read the coordinates?

380
00:16:03,539 --> 00:16:05,505
That won't be necessary.

381
00:16:05,507 --> 00:16:09,009
Are you familiar
with the code name "Lamprey"?

382
00:16:09,011 --> 00:16:11,663
Yes. "Lamprey" was the code name

383
00:16:11,665 --> 00:16:14,114
the KGB assigned to Raymond Reddington.

384
00:16:15,263 --> 00:16:16,983
For the defendant?

385
00:16:17,474 --> 00:16:19,319
For Raymond Reddington.

386
00:16:21,924 --> 00:16:24,140
And... And is Raymond Reddington

387
00:16:24,142 --> 00:16:26,159
in the courtroom today?

388
00:16:28,644 --> 00:16:29,977
You... Your Honor?

389
00:16:29,979 --> 00:16:33,030
Agent Ressler. The man
referred to in the communiqué.

390
00:16:33,032 --> 00:16:34,865
Is he in this courtroom or not?

391
00:16:37,253 --> 00:16:39,520
Yes, Your Honor. He is.

392
00:16:43,826 --> 00:16:45,592
FBI!

393
00:16:47,563 --> 00:16:48,795
- Don't move!
- Freeze!

394
00:16:48,797 --> 00:16:49,897
Don't shoot!

395
00:16:49,899 --> 00:16:51,488
FBI. Hands where we can see them.

396
00:16:51,513 --> 00:16:53,385
Mikela Pariente, you're under arrest

397
00:16:53,387 --> 00:16:55,237
for the murder of Janice DeReamer.

398
00:16:55,262 --> 00:16:56,561
Peter DeReamer. Where is he?

399
00:17:02,653 --> 00:17:05,804
FBI! Stop!

400
00:17:07,140 --> 00:17:08,540
Stop!

401
00:17:12,613 --> 00:17:14,095
You won't make it!

402
00:17:28,795 --> 00:17:30,562
We heard the tapes.

403
00:17:31,324 --> 00:17:33,124
We know you and Peter killed his wife

404
00:17:33,126 --> 00:17:34,625
and that Bailey's blackmailing you.

405
00:17:34,627 --> 00:17:36,560
If you ever want to get out of prison,

406
00:17:36,562 --> 00:17:38,496
you're gonna help us find him.

407
00:17:40,448 --> 00:17:43,850
He told us to put $200,000 in my purse

408
00:17:43,852 --> 00:17:46,402
and take it to the Harkins Museum.

409
00:17:46,404 --> 00:17:48,304
Wanted me to put it in a gift-shop bag

410
00:17:48,306 --> 00:17:50,606
and leave it near a bench at 3:20.

411
00:17:50,608 --> 00:17:51,591
Okay, then.

412
00:17:51,593 --> 00:17:54,177
That's exactly what you're gonna do.

413
00:17:54,980 --> 00:17:56,479
Agent Ressler. My goodness.

414
00:17:56,481 --> 00:17:57,932
After all these years, I feel

415
00:17:57,934 --> 00:17:59,615
as if we actually know each other.

416
00:18:00,105 --> 00:18:02,456
I know the feeling.

417
00:18:02,458 --> 00:18:05,275
Have you ever heard of Katarina Rostova?

418
00:18:05,277 --> 00:18:07,244
Yes. She was a KGB officer.

419
00:18:07,246 --> 00:18:09,413
Would it surprise you
to learn that she and I

420
00:18:09,415 --> 00:18:11,548
had quite a complicated history?

421
00:18:11,550 --> 00:18:13,317
Sex, drugs, rock 'n' roll.

422
00:18:13,319 --> 00:18:15,419
Did I say "sex"? Sex.

423
00:18:15,421 --> 00:18:17,120
Almost nothing you do surprises me.

424
00:18:17,122 --> 00:18:18,789
How about that Katarina

425
00:18:18,791 --> 00:18:21,959
hid the fact that she was a KGB agent,

426
00:18:21,961 --> 00:18:25,562
stole the coordinates
for the submarine U.S.S. Gideon,

427
00:18:25,564 --> 00:18:28,198
and passed them on to her superiors?

428
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,200
That she, in fact, was responsible

429
00:18:30,202 --> 00:18:32,469
for the deaths of those brave young men?

430
00:18:32,471 --> 00:18:36,786
Objection. What surprises
Agent Ressler is not relevant.

431
00:18:36,811 --> 00:18:39,395
Sustained. Move on, Mr. Reddington.

432
00:18:39,397 --> 00:18:41,948
Agent Ressler, was I
a good intelligence officer?

433
00:18:41,950 --> 00:18:44,053
Raymond Reddington was one of the best.

434
00:18:44,919 --> 00:18:47,420
Sorry? Raymond Reddington was?

435
00:18:47,422 --> 00:18:49,455
Yes.

436
00:18:49,457 --> 00:18:51,357
Hated by the KGB?

437
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:52,393
Very much so.

438
00:18:52,418 --> 00:18:54,594
Would they have liked
to see him disgraced?

439
00:18:54,596 --> 00:18:56,829
- Definitely.
- Enough to forge a communiqué?

440
00:18:56,831 --> 00:18:58,965
Objection. The witness
cannot possibly know

441
00:18:58,967 --> 00:19:01,234
what the KGB would or wouldn't do.

442
00:19:01,236 --> 00:19:03,336
Objection sustained. Move on.

443
00:19:03,338 --> 00:19:07,223
Mr. Sima asked you if I was a traitor.

444
00:19:07,225 --> 00:19:09,742
You hesitated with your answer.

445
00:19:10,288 --> 00:19:11,137
Why?

446
00:19:11,162 --> 00:19:12,361
What difference does it make?

447
00:19:12,386 --> 00:19:14,146
Is it because you're uncertain?

448
00:19:14,146 --> 00:19:17,381
Or aware of mitigating circumstances

449
00:19:17,383 --> 00:19:20,418
that have given you
a different opinion of me?

450
00:19:20,443 --> 00:19:24,245
About who I am today
as opposed to who I once was?

451
00:19:24,247 --> 00:19:25,947
I don't think you want me to answer that.

452
00:19:25,949 --> 00:19:27,298
- Oh, but I do.
- I don't.

453
00:19:27,300 --> 00:19:28,916
Counsel will approach.

454
00:19:28,918 --> 00:19:32,136
You may be excused for
the moment, Agent Ressler.

455
00:19:35,258 --> 00:19:38,679
I do not like tricks
played in my courtroom.

456
00:19:38,704 --> 00:19:40,253
Especially dirty ones.

457
00:19:40,255 --> 00:19:41,805
He hesitated for a reason.

458
00:19:41,807 --> 00:19:44,107
The reason is that you work together...

459
00:19:44,109 --> 00:19:46,717
a fact that is
not admissible at this trial.

460
00:19:46,717 --> 00:19:49,382
Or have you forgotten that your
cozy relationship with the FBI

461
00:19:49,382 --> 00:19:51,956
is a deep, dark, and regrettable secret?

462
00:19:51,981 --> 00:19:53,191
There's something else.

463
00:19:53,191 --> 00:19:56,425
Well, I hope for your sake
that it doesn't involve Rostova.

464
00:19:56,427 --> 00:19:58,961
Because that fishing expedition is over.

465
00:19:58,963 --> 00:20:00,524
I need more time.

466
00:20:00,524 --> 00:20:01,563
Clearly.

467
00:20:01,563 --> 00:20:03,153
But you don't have it.

468
00:20:10,902 --> 00:20:14,438
A winter coat, a pair
of warm shoes, and $3,000.

469
00:20:16,075 --> 00:20:17,775
Who are you?

470
00:20:18,643 --> 00:20:21,435
It is yours whether
you can help me or not.

471
00:20:23,315 --> 00:20:25,950
It was a white woman. Dark hair.

472
00:20:25,952 --> 00:20:27,084
She didn't give me her name.

473
00:20:27,086 --> 00:20:28,919
Just 100 bucks to call 911

474
00:20:28,921 --> 00:20:31,288
and to say I seen a man with a gun.

475
00:20:31,290 --> 00:20:32,845
A man wearing a suit and hat.

476
00:20:33,209 --> 00:20:34,808
Is this the woman?

477
00:20:35,635 --> 00:20:36,801
That's not her.

478
00:20:36,803 --> 00:20:38,719
Take your time. Are you sure?

479
00:20:38,721 --> 00:20:41,055
She gave me 100 bucks
to make a phone call.

480
00:20:41,057 --> 00:20:42,723
I'm never gonna forget her face.

481
00:20:42,725 --> 00:20:44,675
Just like I'm never gonna forget yours.

482
00:20:45,812 --> 00:20:47,773
Please state
your name and occupation.

483
00:20:47,773 --> 00:20:49,424
Lawton B. Nuss.

484
00:20:49,766 --> 00:20:52,366
I'm a retired forensic
accountant with the FBI.

485
00:20:52,368 --> 00:20:54,819
When you were with the Bureau,
did you discover

486
00:20:54,821 --> 00:20:57,955
that the Russians paid Raymond Reddington

487
00:20:57,957 --> 00:21:00,708
for information leading to the sinking

488
00:21:00,710 --> 00:21:03,077
- of the U.S.S. Gideon?
- Yes, sir.

489
00:21:03,079 --> 00:21:06,497
I would object,
but I so enjoy a good yarn.

490
00:21:06,499 --> 00:21:08,632
Describe how the money was handled.

491
00:21:08,634 --> 00:21:10,334
A month before the incident,

492
00:21:10,336 --> 00:21:13,671
a corporate account
was opened in a Cypriot bank

493
00:21:13,673 --> 00:21:15,923
known to work with Soviet intelligence.

494
00:21:16,176 --> 00:21:18,760
The only person with
the power to withdraw funds

495
00:21:18,762 --> 00:21:20,011
was the company president.

496
00:21:20,013 --> 00:21:21,730
And who was that?

497
00:21:22,582 --> 00:21:24,432
Raymond Reddington.

498
00:21:24,434 --> 00:21:26,735
I'm sure many accounts were opened

499
00:21:26,737 --> 00:21:29,354
in the weeks prior
to the tragedy of the Gideon.

500
00:21:29,356 --> 00:21:31,990
What makes you think
the activity in this account

501
00:21:31,992 --> 00:21:33,324
was connected to it?

502
00:21:33,326 --> 00:21:35,193
Because a front company for the KGB

503
00:21:35,195 --> 00:21:37,162
wired $3 million into the account

504
00:21:37,164 --> 00:21:38,863
a day before the incident,

505
00:21:38,865 --> 00:21:41,032
and another $3 million the day after it.

506
00:21:41,034 --> 00:21:43,618
One week later, the entire
amount was withdrawn.

507
00:21:43,620 --> 00:21:44,786
By Reddington?

508
00:21:44,788 --> 00:21:46,272
Yes.

509
00:21:46,923 --> 00:21:49,257
Using fingerprints and a password.

510
00:21:49,259 --> 00:21:51,459
Thank you. No further questions.

511
00:21:51,461 --> 00:21:53,678
Was the withdrawal made in person?

512
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,714
No. It was a wire transfer.

513
00:21:55,716 --> 00:21:58,633
You said the withdrawal required
fingerprints and a password.

514
00:21:58,635 --> 00:22:00,051
It was done remotely.

515
00:22:00,053 --> 00:22:02,637
So if someone had a copy
of my fingerprints

516
00:22:02,639 --> 00:22:05,356
and knew the password, they
could have made the withdrawal,

517
00:22:05,358 --> 00:22:06,941
and no one at the bank, nor yourself,

518
00:22:06,943 --> 00:22:08,309
would have known the difference?

519
00:22:08,311 --> 00:22:10,979
I, uh, suppose that's possible.

520
00:22:10,981 --> 00:22:12,981
Yes. You know what else is possible?

521
00:22:12,983 --> 00:22:15,233
That I was framed by Katarina Rostova,

522
00:22:15,235 --> 00:22:16,484
which I could prove if Your Honor

523
00:22:16,486 --> 00:22:17,902
would grant me even the shortest...

524
00:22:17,904 --> 00:22:20,071
All right, the court
will stand in recess.

525
00:22:20,073 --> 00:22:21,573
During which time I will consider

526
00:22:21,575 --> 00:22:24,292
whether your willful disregard
for my instruction

527
00:22:24,294 --> 00:22:26,911
suggests that while you
are clearly competent

528
00:22:26,913 --> 00:22:29,080
to stand trial, you may be incompetent

529
00:22:29,082 --> 00:22:30,715
- to represent yourself.
- I'm innocent.

530
00:22:30,717 --> 00:22:33,604
How can trying to prove that
suggest incompetence?

531
00:22:33,606 --> 00:22:34,965
It doesn't.

532
00:22:34,967 --> 00:22:36,755
But not following the rules does.

533
00:22:36,757 --> 00:22:39,090
And so far, you haven't
come close to doing that.

534
00:22:39,092 --> 00:22:40,557
We're back in 15.

535
00:22:47,818 --> 00:22:49,601
All right, she's on the move.

536
00:23:13,794 --> 00:23:15,376
Hold on. Who's this?

537
00:23:30,360 --> 00:23:32,060
He's taking it to the information desk.

538
00:23:32,062 --> 00:23:33,111
Lost and found.

539
00:23:33,113 --> 00:23:34,729
The janitor.

540
00:23:34,731 --> 00:23:35,897
I got him.

541
00:23:35,899 --> 00:23:37,565
I got the bag.

542
00:23:40,537 --> 00:23:43,121
Excuse me. FBI. I need to
see that bag, right now.

543
00:23:47,494 --> 00:23:48,877
The purse is gone.

544
00:23:48,879 --> 00:23:50,795
The janitor has it. That's him.

545
00:23:58,138 --> 00:24:00,255
Aah!

546
00:24:49,874 --> 00:24:51,583
Aah!

547
00:24:52,389 --> 00:24:53,689
Are you okay?

548
00:24:53,714 --> 00:24:55,380
Uh, yeah, thanks.

549
00:24:58,214 --> 00:24:59,513
Harold.

550
00:24:59,538 --> 00:25:01,071
We found Minister D.

551
00:25:01,096 --> 00:25:03,563
If you found his archives,
I need the tape

552
00:25:03,588 --> 00:25:08,124
of a phone call he recorded
on December 7, 1990.

553
00:25:08,241 --> 00:25:09,374
If he has it, we'll find it.

554
00:25:09,376 --> 00:25:10,742
But I won't give it to you

555
00:25:10,744 --> 00:25:12,381
so you can leverage
the judge or the jury.

556
00:25:12,381 --> 00:25:14,915
If that was my plan,
I wouldn't need your help.

557
00:25:14,917 --> 00:25:17,554
I'm quite capable
of bribing jurors on my own.

558
00:25:17,579 --> 00:25:20,130
I didn't give you this case
to get an acquittal.

559
00:25:20,155 --> 00:25:21,654
Then why did you give it to us?

560
00:25:21,679 --> 00:25:23,179
To prove my innocence.

561
00:25:23,392 --> 00:25:27,344
Members of the jury, I have been
on the bench 23 years,

562
00:25:27,346 --> 00:25:29,146
and I have never had a defendant

563
00:25:29,148 --> 00:25:32,015
represent himself
in a death penalty case.

564
00:25:32,017 --> 00:25:34,101
Mr. Reddington made the choice,

565
00:25:34,103 --> 00:25:35,769
and, after careful consideration,

566
00:25:35,771 --> 00:25:39,156
I have decided to allow him
to continue down that path.

567
00:25:39,158 --> 00:25:41,324
As he's acting as his own counsel,

568
00:25:41,349 --> 00:25:43,717
he may testify in a narrative form.

569
00:25:44,596 --> 00:25:48,064
Mr. Reddington, I'm giving you
the benefit of the doubt.

570
00:25:48,066 --> 00:25:50,450
Don't make me regret it.

571
00:25:50,452 --> 00:25:51,702
Please.

572
00:26:02,598 --> 00:26:05,048
Do you swear to tell
the truth, the whole truth,

573
00:26:05,050 --> 00:26:06,584
and nothing but the truth,
so help you God?

574
00:26:06,586 --> 00:26:07,692
I do.

575
00:26:18,355 --> 00:26:19,789
I don't see it anywhere.

576
00:26:19,791 --> 00:26:21,636
Is it possible he got the date wrong?

577
00:26:21,661 --> 00:26:24,689
Reddington told us to look
for a very specific needle

578
00:26:24,714 --> 00:26:25,601
in this haystack.

579
00:26:25,601 --> 00:26:27,852
A recording taken on December 7, 1990.

580
00:26:27,854 --> 00:26:29,086
Bailey isn't talking.

581
00:26:29,088 --> 00:26:30,437
Please tell me you found something.

582
00:26:30,439 --> 00:26:32,523
We did. Just not
what we were looking for.

583
00:26:32,525 --> 00:26:34,124
Elijah Bailey is an alias.

584
00:26:34,126 --> 00:26:36,060
We matched his DNA to a Jordan Loving,

585
00:26:36,062 --> 00:26:38,362
a retired corporal
in the Army Corps of Engineers.

586
00:26:38,364 --> 00:26:41,161
Now, he disappeared
from a hospital four days

587
00:26:41,186 --> 00:26:42,436
after he made the recording

588
00:26:42,438 --> 00:26:44,039
that Mr. Reddington says
will clear his name.

589
00:26:44,039 --> 00:26:45,805
Loving was admitted with severe burns

590
00:26:45,807 --> 00:26:47,340
after an explosion
at his house injured him

591
00:26:47,342 --> 00:26:49,642
and killed a man identified
as Zachary Tempkin.

592
00:26:49,644 --> 00:26:51,678
We found this picture at Bailey's.

593
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:53,179
It can't be a coincidence that Reddington

594
00:26:53,181 --> 00:26:55,381
is looking for a recording
made on December 7th,

595
00:26:55,383 --> 00:26:58,818
and, on December 11th,
an assassin injures Bailey

596
00:26:58,820 --> 00:27:01,554
and murders a man who appears
to have been his lover.

597
00:27:01,556 --> 00:27:03,523
Maybe he used the tape
to try and blackmail

598
00:27:03,525 --> 00:27:05,625
someone who didn't take kindly
to being blackmailed.

599
00:27:05,627 --> 00:27:08,695
But who? And how the hell
is it connected to Reddington?

600
00:27:09,108 --> 00:27:14,237
35 years ago,
a Naval intelligence officer

601
00:27:14,239 --> 00:27:17,540
working for the U.S. government fell...

602
00:27:21,676 --> 00:27:27,614
...fell into a relationship
with a beautiful Russian woman.

603
00:27:28,461 --> 00:27:30,746
Unbeknownst to his superiors,

604
00:27:30,748 --> 00:27:33,086
that relationship, which started

605
00:27:33,088 --> 00:27:38,069
as guarded attraction,

606
00:27:39,437 --> 00:27:41,604
quickly evolved into passion,

607
00:27:41,606 --> 00:27:45,205
which resulted in pregnancy.

608
00:27:48,679 --> 00:27:50,422
They had the child.

609
00:27:51,374 --> 00:27:52,527
A girl,

610
00:27:54,382 --> 00:27:56,638
whom they both loved.

611
00:27:59,931 --> 00:28:03,361
What the Naval officer didn't know,

612
00:28:03,893 --> 00:28:08,468
but certainly should have suspected,

613
00:28:08,956 --> 00:28:12,522
was that the Russian woman

614
00:28:12,524 --> 00:28:16,698
was... a KGB officer...

615
00:28:17,905 --> 00:28:22,741
that Katarina Rostova had been assigned

616
00:28:22,743 --> 00:28:25,842
to get close to Raymond Reddington

617
00:28:26,513 --> 00:28:29,338
and steal classified information
from him.

618
00:28:30,178 --> 00:28:33,683
What Reddington
could never have suspected

619
00:28:34,121 --> 00:28:37,823
was that though she was a KGB agent,

620
00:28:37,825 --> 00:28:41,927
Rostova's real handlers were members

621
00:28:41,929 --> 00:28:45,047
of a secret criminal organization,

622
00:28:45,049 --> 00:28:51,192
a multinational cabal
working in the shadows

623
00:28:51,333 --> 00:28:56,130
to manipulate world governments,
economic markets,

624
00:28:56,155 --> 00:28:59,927
trade, and international alliances.

625
00:29:00,503 --> 00:29:03,823
When Reddington discovered this,

626
00:29:04,679 --> 00:29:06,613
he confronted Rostova,

627
00:29:06,899 --> 00:29:10,567
who warned him that
if he threatened to expose them,

628
00:29:10,569 --> 00:29:14,971
the Cabal would destroy his reputation,

629
00:29:14,996 --> 00:29:19,287
discrediting him
so he could not discredit them.

630
00:29:20,646 --> 00:29:22,611
And that's what happened.

631
00:29:24,191 --> 00:29:26,191
With the help of the Cabal,

632
00:29:26,985 --> 00:29:29,386
Rostova framed Reddington

633
00:29:30,030 --> 00:29:34,307
with the very evidence
you've heard in this courtroom.

634
00:29:35,482 --> 00:29:39,747
To prevent him
from protecting his country,

635
00:29:40,441 --> 00:29:43,817
she made it appear
as if he had betrayed it.

636
00:29:45,139 --> 00:29:50,182
As a result, the Cabal
remained in the shadows,

637
00:29:50,184 --> 00:29:52,383
Rostova disappeared,

638
00:29:53,254 --> 00:29:57,523
and Raymond Reddington became...

639
00:30:00,094 --> 00:30:03,825
...a completely different person.

640
00:30:05,733 --> 00:30:09,065
A man who has done

641
00:30:11,665 --> 00:30:18,160
many brutal, scary, illegal things...

642
00:30:21,617 --> 00:30:25,361
...but not a single one ever

643
00:30:26,765 --> 00:30:28,615
that was treasonous.

644
00:30:31,894 --> 00:30:35,266
That's it... every box, file, and tape.

645
00:30:35,291 --> 00:30:36,635
We must have missed something.

646
00:30:36,635 --> 00:30:37,906
Or it's not here.

647
00:30:37,908 --> 00:30:39,210
We have to start over.

648
00:30:40,428 --> 00:30:41,638
I think it's too late for that.

649
00:30:42,115 --> 00:30:44,339
It's gotta be here somewhere.
It has to be.

650
00:30:44,339 --> 00:30:45,772
We'll start over.

651
00:30:47,016 --> 00:30:50,149
Uh, I don't think we have to.

652
00:30:51,271 --> 00:30:53,832
December 7, 1990.

653
00:30:55,375 --> 00:30:56,841
Notify Ressler.

654
00:30:56,843 --> 00:30:58,872
Tell him we have the tape
Reddington was looking for.

655
00:30:58,872 --> 00:31:00,271
Let me just get this straight...

656
00:31:00,273 --> 00:31:05,472
You were framed by a "secret
criminal organization"?

657
00:31:05,497 --> 00:31:07,105
I'm sorry. I misspoke.

658
00:31:07,105 --> 00:31:09,238
Thanks to me, the Cabal
is no longer secret.

659
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,695
"A multinational cabal
working in the shadows

660
00:31:12,944 --> 00:31:14,593
to manipulate world governments."

661
00:31:14,595 --> 00:31:17,146
I'm sure they have a Wikipedia
page if you care to look.

662
00:31:17,148 --> 00:31:18,714
Do you have any evidence

663
00:31:18,716 --> 00:31:21,019
to support this conspiracy theory?

664
00:31:22,334 --> 00:31:23,569
I do.

665
00:31:23,571 --> 00:31:25,537
That you can present at this time?

666
00:31:25,539 --> 00:31:27,256
Yes. Though, for the life of me,

667
00:31:27,258 --> 00:31:28,907
I don't understand
what the rush is all about.

668
00:31:28,909 --> 00:31:31,827
Everyone seems so anxious
to kill me. Makes you wonder.

669
00:31:31,829 --> 00:31:34,363
Perhaps you could enlighten me
over a cocktail

670
00:31:34,365 --> 00:31:36,098
after my acquittal... which is inevitable

671
00:31:36,100 --> 00:31:38,751
now that the evidence has arrived.

672
00:31:42,173 --> 00:31:43,839
Permission to approach?

673
00:31:43,841 --> 00:31:46,308
I thought you'd never ask.

674
00:31:48,562 --> 00:31:50,779
Whatever evidence his FBI lackey

675
00:31:50,781 --> 00:31:51,914
just stepped and fetched for him...

676
00:31:51,916 --> 00:31:53,349
It's a tape recording.

677
00:31:53,351 --> 00:31:56,099
That we haven't had
the chance to authenticate.

678
00:31:56,101 --> 00:31:58,401
Then let's get Agent Ressler
to hop on the stand,

679
00:31:58,403 --> 00:32:00,489
cross his heart, hope to die,
and do just that.

680
00:32:00,781 --> 00:32:02,064
I agree.

681
00:32:02,066 --> 00:32:04,011
Mr. Sima, you will have the chance

682
00:32:04,036 --> 00:32:06,970
to cross-examine the witness
and authenticate the tape.

683
00:32:06,972 --> 00:32:08,687
Mr. Reddington, it appears

684
00:32:08,689 --> 00:32:10,179
that all your eggs are in this basket.

685
00:32:10,179 --> 00:32:12,046
You better hope they don't crack.

686
00:32:12,769 --> 00:32:14,665
Mm. That loud whooshing sound

687
00:32:14,665 --> 00:32:17,483
is the wind blowing out of your case.

688
00:32:19,225 --> 00:32:21,720
The court needed the tape
copied to a flash drive,

689
00:32:21,722 --> 00:32:25,023
but... this is the original.

690
00:32:25,025 --> 00:32:27,573
They pulled me out of a meeting.
This better be important.

691
00:32:27,575 --> 00:32:29,770
Reddington knows.
He knows everything.

692
00:32:29,795 --> 00:32:31,179
Explain.

693
00:32:31,181 --> 00:32:32,531
He's discovered my identity.

694
00:32:32,533 --> 00:32:34,432
And the existence of the Cabal.

695
00:32:34,434 --> 00:32:35,967
Can he be contained?

696
00:32:35,969 --> 00:32:37,385
He took Masha.

697
00:32:37,911 --> 00:32:38,938
Eliminate him.

698
00:32:38,938 --> 00:32:40,371
He's a decorated officer.

699
00:32:40,373 --> 00:32:41,872
His death would be investigated.

700
00:32:41,874 --> 00:32:44,275
Whatever they find, they will believe.

701
00:32:44,277 --> 00:32:45,876
But if we discredit him...

702
00:32:45,878 --> 00:32:48,913
The intelligence I stole...
We leak that it came from him.

703
00:32:48,915 --> 00:32:50,714
No one will believe him after that.

704
00:32:50,716 --> 00:32:53,751
Not with the blood
of 134 Americans on his hands.

705
00:32:53,753 --> 00:32:57,054
Agent Rostova, I told you
to eliminate him.

706
00:32:57,238 --> 00:32:59,438
And I'm telling you there's a better way.

707
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,152
Because you're sleeping with him.

708
00:33:01,152 --> 00:33:03,552
Because he has proof
that the Cabal exists,

709
00:33:03,554 --> 00:33:06,338
proof that would be released
in the event of his death.

710
00:33:06,716 --> 00:33:07,815
The Fulcrum.

711
00:33:07,817 --> 00:33:10,217
And because I love his daughter.

712
00:33:10,219 --> 00:33:11,913
My daughter.

713
00:33:13,089 --> 00:33:15,055
I want this mess cleaned up.

714
00:33:15,057 --> 00:33:16,457
Get rid of him or ruin him.

715
00:33:16,459 --> 00:33:18,311
Just get it done by Christmas.

716
00:33:21,456 --> 00:33:25,009
Agent Ressler. Do you recognize the man's
voice on the audiotape?

717
00:33:25,205 --> 00:33:26,537
Yes. It's Alan Fitch.

718
00:33:26,539 --> 00:33:28,606
The former Director
of National Intelligence.

719
00:33:28,608 --> 00:33:31,376
And the woman? Agent Rostova?

720
00:33:31,378 --> 00:33:33,911
It was Katarina Rostova, yes.

721
00:33:33,913 --> 00:33:36,114
Why did you bring me this tape?

722
00:33:36,116 --> 00:33:37,849
Because the government
has a legal obligation

723
00:33:37,851 --> 00:33:40,652
under Brady v. Maryland
to provide the defendant

724
00:33:40,654 --> 00:33:43,988
with any exculpatory evidence
that can be used in the defense.

725
00:33:45,176 --> 00:33:46,829
Thank you, Agent Ressler.

726
00:33:46,831 --> 00:33:50,732
And may I say you are
both everything I dislike

727
00:33:50,734 --> 00:33:54,538
about the FBI and
everything I admire about it?

728
00:33:55,072 --> 00:33:57,172
Nothing further, Your Honor.

729
00:34:01,612 --> 00:34:03,579
Your scar.

730
00:34:08,928 --> 00:34:12,354
Katarina Rostova gave that
to you, didn't she?

731
00:34:14,658 --> 00:34:16,825
She took Zachary from you.

732
00:34:19,538 --> 00:34:20,870
You found the tape.

733
00:34:20,872 --> 00:34:23,173
You blackmailed the wrong person.

734
00:34:23,175 --> 00:34:24,641
I thought I could use the tapes

735
00:34:24,643 --> 00:34:26,776
to punish people for what they'd done.

736
00:34:26,778 --> 00:34:28,511
To cash in on what they'd done.

737
00:34:28,513 --> 00:34:33,481
To make a good living
off the backs of bad people.

738
00:34:33,483 --> 00:34:37,087
You hurt a lot of people who deserved it.

739
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:39,415
But you also hurt yourself.

740
00:34:39,417 --> 00:34:41,052
No, I didn't.

741
00:34:41,054 --> 00:34:43,577
Katarina Rostova did.

742
00:34:46,115 --> 00:34:49,816
Out of all the tapes,
why ask me about this one?

743
00:34:54,490 --> 00:34:58,058
Because Katarina Rostova
took someone away from me, too.

744
00:35:02,364 --> 00:35:04,965
I'm sorry.

745
00:35:06,527 --> 00:35:08,235
So am I.

746
00:35:17,288 --> 00:35:19,206
Thanks to your tape

747
00:35:21,083 --> 00:35:24,351
I think
she just gave him back to me.

748
00:35:48,141 --> 00:35:49,866
The defendant will rise.

749
00:35:51,091 --> 00:35:53,558
Has the jury reached a verdict?

750
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,049
We have, Your Honor.

751
00:35:56,634 --> 00:35:59,628
In United States v. Raymond Reddington,

752
00:35:59,653 --> 00:36:01,820
to the single count alleging violation

753
00:36:01,822 --> 00:36:06,325
of Title 18,
United States Code Section 2381,

754
00:36:06,327 --> 00:36:08,229
Treason, how do you find?

755
00:36:09,296 --> 00:36:10,668
Not guilty.

756
00:36:10,670 --> 00:36:11,899
Ahh.

757
00:36:12,550 --> 00:36:14,986
The court thanks the jury
for your service.

758
00:36:14,986 --> 00:36:16,600
You are dismissed.

759
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,773
Your Honor, the government is ready

760
00:36:22,775 --> 00:36:25,142
to proceed to trial
on the remaining indictments.

761
00:36:25,144 --> 00:36:28,112
I have no doubt that once
the government licks its wounds,

762
00:36:28,114 --> 00:36:31,482
it will want another bite
at our allegedly rotten apple.

763
00:36:31,484 --> 00:36:32,983
But that's for another day.

764
00:36:32,985 --> 00:36:36,537
Until then, the defendant
will remain in custody.

765
00:36:36,539 --> 00:36:39,039
No bail? I was looking
forward to that cocktail.

766
00:36:39,475 --> 00:36:42,960
You may or may not be
the most dangerous criminal

767
00:36:42,962 --> 00:36:44,828
to ever grace my courtroom.

768
00:36:44,830 --> 00:36:47,498
But you certainly are
the most incorrigible.

769
00:36:47,793 --> 00:36:49,709
Court stands in recess.

770
00:36:53,907 --> 00:36:56,550
I don't know how I can feel so relieved

771
00:36:56,552 --> 00:36:58,866
and so pissed off at the same time.

772
00:36:58,866 --> 00:37:00,582
Don't judge her too harshly.

773
00:37:00,584 --> 00:37:03,145
I don't think I could
judge her harshly enough.

774
00:37:04,605 --> 00:37:07,122
Whoever you are today,

775
00:37:07,124 --> 00:37:09,341
whatever you've become...

776
00:37:09,343 --> 00:37:11,710
It's because of the lies she told.

777
00:37:12,312 --> 00:37:15,127
She was between a rock and a hard place.

778
00:37:15,127 --> 00:37:17,344
That's no excuse for framing someone

779
00:37:17,346 --> 00:37:18,720
for a crime they didn't commit.

780
00:37:18,720 --> 00:37:20,850
It's easy to think that now.

781
00:37:21,306 --> 00:37:22,762
Back then...

782
00:37:25,693 --> 00:37:28,515
...things were... complicated.

783
00:37:28,515 --> 00:37:31,516
I grew up believing Raymond
Reddington was a traitor.

784
00:37:31,518 --> 00:37:33,051
Well, now you know the truth.

785
00:37:33,053 --> 00:37:34,803
I know a truth.

786
00:37:35,289 --> 00:37:38,523
You know that your parents
loved you very much.

787
00:37:39,042 --> 00:37:41,560
And that's the only truth that matters.

788
00:38:17,931 --> 00:38:19,049
Dembe.

789
00:38:20,631 --> 00:38:22,100
We won.

790
00:38:22,102 --> 00:38:24,129
I'm very relieved.

791
00:38:24,771 --> 00:38:27,522
More so knowing that you are, as well.

792
00:38:27,524 --> 00:38:30,108
Of course I am. Why wouldn't I be?

793
00:38:30,110 --> 00:38:33,495
Because you are
the reason Raymond is here.

794
00:38:34,524 --> 00:38:37,542
I spoke to the woman
who called the police.

795
00:38:37,959 --> 00:38:39,855
I showed her your photo.

796
00:38:40,222 --> 00:38:42,236
When she didn't recognize it,

797
00:38:42,238 --> 00:38:45,133
I realized she had spoken to Jennifer.

798
00:38:46,025 --> 00:38:48,391
That you worked together
to capture Raymond.

799
00:38:53,666 --> 00:38:54,999
Does he know?

800
00:38:55,001 --> 00:38:57,368
I keep his secrets. I don't share them.

801
00:39:00,206 --> 00:39:01,289
He sent you to find out.

802
00:39:01,291 --> 00:39:03,541
So he suspects something,
but he doesn't know.

803
00:39:03,543 --> 00:39:06,004
- Is that it?
- I won't say it is.

804
00:39:06,752 --> 00:39:08,729
But I won't say it's not.

805
00:39:09,655 --> 00:39:13,059
If you tell him, he'll never forgive me.

806
00:39:14,704 --> 00:39:18,269
The secrets he keeps from you
cause you so much pain.

807
00:39:18,608 --> 00:39:22,962
And now you are asking me
to keep your secrets from him.

808
00:39:25,732 --> 00:39:27,949
You're his secret keeper.

809
00:39:30,570 --> 00:39:33,097
I'm asking you to be mine, too.

810
00:39:40,630 --> 00:39:42,398
It's gonna be fine.

811
00:39:45,418 --> 00:39:47,072
Everything's gonna be fine.

812
00:39:51,841 --> 00:39:53,090
I know what you did.

813
00:39:53,092 --> 00:39:56,093
What, stole the boss's hooch?

814
00:39:57,230 --> 00:39:59,680
You lied to the judge

815
00:39:59,682 --> 00:40:01,196
to protect my search

816
00:40:01,221 --> 00:40:03,267
For the imposter's true identity.

817
00:40:03,731 --> 00:40:08,283
You ignored everything
I asked you not to do.

818
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:11,787
And I just wanted to say thank you.

819
00:40:20,164 --> 00:40:22,826
That must've been hard,
hearing that tape today.

820
00:40:22,826 --> 00:40:25,600
Listening to your mother
betray your father like that.

821
00:40:28,164 --> 00:40:29,781
To be honest with you, Ressler,

822
00:40:29,783 --> 00:40:31,288
this has all been hard.

823
00:40:32,230 --> 00:40:34,647
Ever since I met the imposter.

824
00:40:36,818 --> 00:40:40,370
But, yes, especially now,

825
00:40:40,372 --> 00:40:42,795
knowing that my mother
helped this imposter steal

826
00:40:42,795 --> 00:40:44,451
my real father's good name.

827
00:40:45,738 --> 00:40:46,888
But why?

828
00:40:47,264 --> 00:40:48,597
I mean, before today,

829
00:40:48,599 --> 00:40:50,432
everyone thought
Reddington was a traitor.

830
00:40:50,434 --> 00:40:52,267
The government, the press,

831
00:40:52,269 --> 00:40:55,404
and, still, the imposter
chose to take his identity.

832
00:40:55,406 --> 00:40:57,689
I mean, he went to a surgeon
who could have given him

833
00:40:57,691 --> 00:41:00,325
the identity of anyone in the world.

834
00:41:00,327 --> 00:41:01,777
He could have been anyone.

835
00:41:01,779 --> 00:41:05,080
And yet he chose to be a pariah.

836
00:41:05,082 --> 00:41:07,115
He chose the life of a wanted fugitive.

837
00:41:07,117 --> 00:41:07,872
Why?

838
00:41:08,285 --> 00:41:09,585
Why would anyone do that?

839
00:41:12,957 --> 00:41:14,957
I heard the news. Congratulations.

840
00:41:14,959 --> 00:41:17,009
A Pyrrhic victory, I'm afraid.

841
00:41:17,011 --> 00:41:19,962
Like eating a salted caramel babka.

842
00:41:19,964 --> 00:41:22,431
Immensely satisfying in the moment,

843
00:41:22,433 --> 00:41:24,633
but it just might be
what kills me in the end.

844
00:41:26,220 --> 00:41:29,215
I found the person who made the 911 call.

845
00:41:30,208 --> 00:41:31,284
And?

846
00:41:31,284 --> 00:41:32,817
It was a homeless woman.

847
00:41:32,819 --> 00:41:34,702
Well, who told her to make the call?

848
00:41:34,704 --> 00:41:35,820
She didn't know.

849
00:41:35,822 --> 00:41:37,488
- You showed her a photograph?
- Yes.

850
00:41:37,490 --> 00:41:39,039
- Of Elizabeth?
- Yes.

851
00:41:39,041 --> 00:41:39,828
And?

852
00:41:40,209 --> 00:41:41,325
No.

853
00:41:41,853 --> 00:41:43,646
Ohh.

854
00:41:48,668 --> 00:41:50,820
I was so sure.

855
00:41:52,518 --> 00:41:53,850
I was...

856
00:41:58,261 --> 00:42:02,012
The thought
that she'd betrayed me again...

857
00:42:06,769 --> 00:42:08,254
But she didn't.

858
00:42:09,461 --> 00:42:10,563
No.
