According to Reddington, Minister D
gathers incriminating information

and then uses it to extort people.
56
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,990
In 2004, he discovered
an insider-trading scheme

00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:07,719
and used information to extort $4 million
from a pair of traders at Koji Analytics.

Six years ago, he blackmailed

how Minister D collects intel?

Minister D gathers information
to extort people.
69

With Reddington about to go to trial,
it stands to reason

or the judge.

Was the defendant the only one
who knew about the mission?
264
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,634
Raymond Reddington was one

four CIA operatives on the Russia desk.

the Gideon's captain changed course
to avoid weather.
270
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:14,119
The change was communicated
to an officer assigned to the mission.

He was the only one of the 16 who knew
the coordinates of the sub on the day.

That doesn't prove

Why are you so certain that he did?

I'm sure many accounts were opened in
weeks prior to the tragedy of the Gideon.

What makes you think the activity
in this account was connected to it?

A company for the KGB wired 3 million

and another 3 million the day after it.

No. It was a wire transfer.

You said the withdrawal required
fingerprints and a password.
394
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:00,510
It was done remotely.

If someone had my fingerprints
and knew the password,

they could have made the withdrawal

and no one at the bank, nor yourself,
would have known the difference.

Unbeknownst to his superiors,
that relationship, which started as...

466
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:46,557

What Reddington could

Rostova's real handlers

When Reddington discovered this,

he confronted Rostova,

that if he threatened to expose them,
487
