"FINCH:" "You are being watched." "The government has a secret system, Ripped By mstoll a machine that spies on you every hour of every day." "I designed The Machine to detect acts of terror but it sees everything, violent crimes involving ordinary people." "The government considers these people irrelevant." "We don't."

"Look, Belinda, or whatever your name is you just saved my life." "How can I ever possibly... (SIGHING) All done here, Finch." "Not to be a stickler about etiquette, Ms. Shaw, but I believe that Mr. Mathers was in the midst of thanking you." "You paid me to save him, not listen to him talk." "And while your combat skills are impressive, your bedside manner still leaves a little something to be desired." "I was thinking you might stop by and we could discuss it over a nice cup of tea." "Well, as fun as that sounds, Finch, I'll pass." "(DOG WHIMPERING)" "(SIRENS IN DISTANCE)" "I don't like meeting out in the open like this, Yogorov." "Relax, Simmons." "This place was on the map you gave us." "You see any cameras?" " So, Terney?" " Yeah." "What's the status on our joint operation?" "Everything's in place." "Our part's good to go." "We just need you to arrange the meeting." "No problem." "We'll get all the players in one room." "One very secure room." "If our boss is gonna be involved, this is gonna be airtight." "(SIGHING)" "John, one of these days, I'm just gonna shoot you." "I get that a lot." "(SIGHING) Busted, huh?" "Finch and I have known about your side project for a while." "From what we've seen, you've got enough to bring down half the organization." "You could bust them, make deals to take down the rest." "Special Agent Donnelly tried that." "But HR rebuilt itself from ashes because we didn't cut off the head." "If we had, Cal might still be alive." "I'm playing by different rules now." "No deals and I won't make a move until I can bring down the boss." "They're running some joint operation with the Russians." "If I can just get eyes on that meeting," "I might finally ID the head of HR." " Need help?" " No." "But if I do, you'll be my first call." "(CLINKING)" "(ELECTRONIC CHATTER)" "Finch, I thought you said we had a new number." "We do, but this one doesn't match any Social Security number on record." "The nine digits in question are a USCIS alien registration number." "Green card number." "We're looking for an immigrant." "Specifically, Ms. Genrika Zhirova of Solntsevo, Russia." "Information on Ms. Zhirova is a little hard to come by." "She has virtually no digital footprint." "All I have so far is a last known address." "It's a housing project in the South Bronx."

"Whatever this woman's into, I got a feeling it's gonna get messy." " Can I help you?" " You're Genrika?" "Gen, nobody calls me Genrika." " Are your parents here?" " My mom's in prison in Russia." "I never knew my dad." "I came here a few years ago to live with my grandfather." " And where is he?" " Cemetery." "He died eight months ago." "Shouldn't you guys already know this stuff?" " So now you live with..." " Vadim." "We're, like, third cousin or something." "He's supposed to be taking care of me now." "Which means he gets an extra 200 a month and a free place to live." "They should pay me twice that to put up with her." "Always sneaking around, taking pictures." "Crazy little girl thinks she's a spy." "I'm just practicing for my career." " Career doing what?" " International espionage." " What's this about?" " Just a routine check." "Routine, my ass." "Is there a problem with my immigration status?" " No." "I..." " Why'd they send you?" "Agent Cross normally handles my case." "There is no Agent Cross." "(LAUGHING)" "(SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE)" "Look, uh..." "do you need any help here?" "I'm fine, but you're making me late for school." "Ms. Shaw's conversation with Ms. Zhirova was, if not harmonious, at least illuminating." "Four years ago, her mother was in prison for protesting the Putin administration." "So her grandfather brought Gen here to live with him." "FINCH:" "Now she's all alone." "Not exactly the safest place for a kid." "And cousin Vadim's no Suzy Homemaker." "Well, whatever's going on, I doubt this girl's the perpetrator." "I wouldn't be surprised if the recent changes in her circumstances have something to do with the threat." "Perhaps, Ms. Shaw, had you been a touch more solicitous when asking her if she needed help..." "What?" "I asked, she said no." "If you ask me, the kid can take care of her..." "FINCH:" "Is everything all right?" "REESE:" "You're not gonna believe this, Finch." "Shaw just got made by a ten-year-old." "What kind of a weird-ass kid uses counter-surveillance tactics?" "I got it from here." "But I think you freaked her out a little." "It's mutual." "I'll recon her building." "Mr. Reese, we need to have a talk about Ms. Shaw." " Uh..." "Don't worry, I've got us up on a private line." "Look, it won't do to save this little girl's life only to have her scared to death by Ms. Shaw." "Perhaps it would be best if we kept her at arm's length from Ms. Zhirova." "SHAW:" "Fine with me, I hate kids." " Ms. Shaw?" " What, Finch?" "You think I didn't bug your office?"

"I'm coming to you, okay?" "(ELECTRONIC CHATTER)" "Well, Finch, so much for keeping me away from the kid." "Ms. Zhirova." "Is she safe?" "For now." "But I don't think our tangos have given up." "Me either." "What's your 20?" "Sub-basement." "A few floors down." "Hold your position." "I'm on my way." "REESE:" "Any idea what (his is about?" "Do you know who those men were or why they tried to grab you?" "Probably because I'm a spy." " She doesn't know." " So we have no idea who's after her?" "The guy giving orders had a tremor in his hand." "Could be Parkinson's." "It's a rare enough condition." "It might help us to identify him." "All right, John, I'll meet you at the northeast comer." "No, please stay put, Ms. Shaw." "Mr. Reese will come to you." "Your job is to protect Ms. Zhirova at all costs." "Sir, yes, sir." "I thought you might be a robot." "(ELECTRONIC CHATTER)" "No hits for Parkinson's in the database but if you're loocking for bad guys, you've gone to the right place." " Your girl lives in an impact zone." " Well, that doesn't sound good." "Her address is in a blind spot where funding for Domain Awareness ran out." "Criminals like to go where the cameras aren't." "No sign of our friend in the suit."

"What are you?" "Like, Spec Ops or something?" "Oh, man!" "What agency do you work for?" "CIA?" "NSA?" "INSCOM?" "Why would a big agency like that care what happens to me?" "We're not a big agency."

"Did any of the people you ever recorded talk about committing any crimes?" "Lots of them." "I bugged anyone who looked suspicious." "Did it ever occur to you that that might have been a really bad idea?" "I was just trying to get the drug dealers out of my building." " Did you give the tapes to anyone?" " Not yet." "New York's just like Russia." "You can't trust the cops." "I was waiting until I had something on the dealers that was too big to ignore." " Yeah, they're not ignoring you, kid."

"I was, uh about your age when I figured out I was different." "(HISSING)" " What's that?" " R-22." "They must have punctured the pipes for the building's AC."

"But, uh..." "I got his cell." "It might lead us to the guy with the tremor." "Give me his location." "I'll handle the rest." "Bear found blood, Shaw." "A lot of it." " And he seems to think it's yours." " I'm fine." "I'm sending you the address of a doctor who owes us a favor." "John can track the man with the tremors." "And I think I finally have the means to determine why she was abducted." "(RATTLING)" "I've recovered Gen's tapes right where she said they were." "A girl after my own heart."

(GASPING)" "You wanna tell me why you're holding the same junk as the guys who took Gen?" "Sit down, Vadim." "Got a little something for you." "Mm, good, huh?" "It'd be a shame to see it all go to waste." "Now I can either re-up your stash or I can flush it all." "Stupid kid." "Bugging people's rooms." "They sweep for transmitters." "Who uses wires anymore?" "But they find the wire, then they find recorders then they find me." " You told them about Gen?" " They knew already." "They give me this."

"(ELECTRONIC CHATTER)" "So we called your mom, Okay, Sameen?" "She's coming right now." "Where's my dad?" "Is he stuck in the car, too?" "Sweetheart, it was a really bad accident." "Your dad got hurt." "Then why are you with me?" "You should be taking care of him." "Yeah, I wish I could, sweetie."

"Can I have a sandwich?" "(ELECTRONIC CHATTER)" "(PHONE RINGING)" "Ms. Shaw, you're still not at the doctor." "I must insist that you..." "(CLATTERING)" "Finch, Carter knows how HR found Gen." "They ran her fingerprints." "Every legal immigrant gets fingerprinted when they enter the country." "That still doesn't explain exactly what she has on HR." " How's our friend with the tremor?" " Awake, but not exactly a chatterbox." "Perhaps we should let Mr. Yogorov and Detective Simmons do the talking." " YOGOROV:" "What kind of joint operation?" " SIMMONS:" "One in our mutual interest." "My boss wants your people to stop moving the old product and try something new." "They ever say what the product is?" "No, but one of your pictures may turn out to be worth a thousand words." "The tanker that you spotted bears a chemical formula on the side:" "KMnO4." "Potassium permanganate." "Commonly used in water treatment, but also a key ingredient in a dangerous new class of drugs." "Synthetic cathinones." "Otherwise known as bath salts." " So basically, HR's dealing drugs." " Perhaps not simply dealing." "The drug may be intoxicating, but pure potassium permanganate is just toxic." "Exposure produces symptoms similar to Parkinson's." "Our new friend isn't sick." "He's been cooking designer drugs for HR." "Thank you, Finch." "Nitroglycerin." "It's highly unstable." "The slightest shock could set it off." "Drop it and it'll blow your knees off." "I'd hold steady if I were you." "So you've been making drugs for HR." "Where do the Russians come in?" "HR makes the stuff, the Russians move it." " They called in a big meeting." " With the head of HR?" "The top dealers in town." "HR wants the Russians to lay down the law, force them to stop selling coke, "H," whatever, start selling salts." "You get all that, Finch?" "Yes, and I've found something in one of Gen's recordings that confirms it." "SIMMONS:" "Screw the Colombians." "This stuff is made right here in the US of A, all right?" "We've got a massive facility, city gets hooked, we all get rich." "So where is the cook site?" "I only helped with the first batch, but a pipe burst." "I got hosed with whatever did this to me." "After that, they moved someplace bigger." "Please." "That's all I know." "Hmm." "And I believe you." "Hey." "Hey!" "You can't just leave me here!" "So HR's tailoring crime in the city to fit their needs." "And we've got the tapes to prove it to the DEA." "Look, Carter, I know you said no deals but... of course we trade the tapes for the girl." "Are we really gonna leave him like that?" "Relax." "It's just corn syrup." "(SCREAMING)" "(SIREN WAILING)" "We got a 911 call." "Someone's having a heart attack?" "Sorry, we're required to check."

"My people have standards." "You know where they make this stuff?" "I just handle distribution." " Ever try it?" " Hell, no." "My body's a temple." "Have you left the country in the last six months?" "No." " Ever had unprotected sex?" " Why?" "You offering?" "No." "Ever had hepatitis, malaria, Chagas disease, or babesiosis?" " No." "What the hell is this about?" " I need blood." "So I'm taking yours." "(INHALING SHARPLY)" "You don't even know my blood type." "I'm AB Positive." "Universal recipient." "(INHALING DEEPLY)" "Get HR on the phone."

"I'm coming for you." "Okay." "Let's talk terms." "FINCH:" "I'm copying the HR tapes." "But I have hours of analog audio and no way to speed up the process." "Gen doesn't have hours, Finch." "We need to tell HR we're willing to trade the tapes for..." "Way ahead of you, John." "You hired me to save Gen, not bust dirty cops." "So unless you got a better idea, Harold I'm gonna need those tapes." "(ELECTRONIC CHATTER)" "We got a problem, Carter." "Shaw took the tapes." "She's meeting Simmons on Randall's Island to trade them for the girl." "But I'll be there to change the odds." " Need help?" " If I do, you'll be my first call." "I got eyes on her." "Her pal in the suit knows about the meet." "You're walking into an ambush." "No, he is." "You guys are with me." "Carter, there you are." "Look." "I need to talk to you about something." "Yeah, we can talk all day tomorrow." "Come on, Carter." "I covered for you with the sarge." "And I need your advice." "I'm having a problem." "With somebody on the job." "All right, what is it?" "Not here." "I know a bar nearby." "SIMMONS:" "All right, we're about to get the tapes and the man in the suit." "Showtime, people." "Prepare to fire on my order." "Acknowledge." "Acknowledge, one." "Acknowledge, two." " Where is everybody?" " REESE:" "Officer." "I'd like to report a kidnapping." "You win." "Take her." "Girl's not here." " Neither are the tapes." " Looks like you got bad intel." "Not a total loss." "It's about time you and I had a little talk." "Gotta hand it to you, Finch." "This was a better idea." "Carter said Detective Terney was involved in the joint operation, so it seemed reasonable to assume that his GPS signal might lead us to the lab." "(GROWLING)" "(HISSING, MAN SCREAMING)" "Just tell me which way to go." "Right." "I hope." "(BOTH GRUNTING)" "(PANTING)" "There are hundreds of us, you know." "You really think you can win?"

"(EXPLOSIONS)" "Two beers, Jerry." "On me." "How you doing, Jer?" "You gonna join me?" "So, what's the problem, Laskey?" "Well, for starters, my own partner won't even have a drink with me." "So, you're having a problem with someone at work?" " Who?" " You." "I mean, what's going on?" "I'm supposed to have your back, but how can I help you if you don't even talk to me?" " I'm fine." " Like hell you are." "With the secret phone calls in the night, ducking out in the middle of a shift, hush-hush meetings with some man in a suit." "Who is he, anyway, 'cause I don't think he's your boyfriend." "Why are you so curious?" "Is it maybe because of this?" "I know, Laskey." "I've known from the second your ass landed in my car." "Do you have any idea what it's like?" " What what's like?" " Riding around all day with an arrogant bitch who doesn't know her place." "They spared your life, but you keep pushing." "And now your pal in the suit is gonna pay the price." "Trust me, he is not the one you should be worried about." "See, you just played Simmons for us." "We fed you bad info, and you got Simmons and his men away from the girl." "You know, when they assigned me to you, they told me to play the dumb rookie, see what I could find out." "But Simmons gave me the authority to pull your card anytime I want." "What you think, Jerry?" "Should I earn myself a new partner?" "You don't even know who you are yet, son." "Do you?" "But you wanna play Billy Badass?" "You go right ahead." "But I spent enough time with you to know you're afraid of me." "That's why you have your idiot friend here for backup." "I know you, Laskey." "Just like I know Jerry back there is a lieutenant in Bronx Vice who paid for this bar with dirty cash from shaking down hookers." "And I have the proof to put him away for it." "Now I was gonna wait and arrest you two with everyone else." "But if this is how you wanna play it, little man, guess I'll have to take you down right now." "You both can go easy or it can be hard." "They should've killed you, you stupid..." "Put the gun down." "Put it down!" "Sit down!" "Now we gotta figure this out." "Figure this out?" "You just killed him." "No." "You did." "Registered to you in the state of New Jersey." "All I gotta do is submit it for ballistics." "But I'm not gonna do that." "Not yet." "You don't work for HR anymore, son." "You work for me now."

"I know it won't mean much to you, but it'll mean a lotto me that you have it." "I'm just not wired for this kind of stuff, kid." "I know." "I figured you out." "It's not that you don't have feelings." "It's just like the volume is turned way down." "Like the sound on an old tape." "The voices are there." "You just have to listen." "Bye, Shaw." "You're hurting me." "(BEAR BARKING)" "So I, uh..." "disobeyed some..." "Pretty much all... of your orders." "Am I fired?" "On the contrary, Ms. Shaw." "I think you finally got the job."
