"Previously on Revenge..." "The evidence in that laptop could send the Graysons away for lifetimes." "You remember my fiancee." "Emily and I are re-engaged." "Mr. Porter, of course." "We have an appointment." "(Whispering) Be careful of Victoria, Jack." "She doesn't do anything freely." " Conrad ordered my wife's murder." " Do you have proof?" "(Nate) Let's say somebody was able to remove this leverage." "(Conrad) We never had this conversation." " You're fired." " Somebody is clearly trying to manipulate you against me." " Tell me who it is." " Someone I trust far more than you." "Aah!" "(Grunts)" "Yah!" "Uhh!" "(Grunts)" "What is the Initiative planning to do with Carrion?" "Carrion can't operate without my magic touch." "Daniel, I'm pregnant." " You hit "enter"..." " The Graysons end up with nothing." "Aiden, don't!" "It's a blackout." "It's started." "(Emily) Darkness scares us." "We yearn for the comfort of light as it provides shape and form..." "Allowing us to recognize, to define what's before us." "But what is it we're afraid of, really?" "Not the darkness itself..." "But the truth we know hides within." "(Nolan) It's not just the power grids." "All the automated systems are fried..." "Internet providers, cell connections, WiMAX, LTE." "Even the dusty 2G networks are down." "(Sirens wailing in distance)" "What is going on out there?" "Do you have a..." "a radio that still runs on batteries?" "Maybe a survival kit?" "Sadly, my plans for the apocalypse consisted of making a list that started and ended with "Call Emily."" "Wait." "I do have something solar-powered that could be of use." "No, we can't wait until sunrise, Nolan." "Well, actually, it's about a thousand miles above us in geocentric orbit, where it's pretty much sunny all the time." "Nolsat?" "What do you need to set up a connection?" "Just a laptop with some juice." "I'm sure we got one around here somewhere." "(Sighs)" "What the hell are they up to?" "(Horns honking)" "(People speaking excitedly)" "Come on." "This way." " Aren't we getting your car?" " Won't do us any good." "The bridges and tunnels will be jammed." "It'll be faster to walk to Dad's campaign headquarters." "That's fifteen blocks." "Why there?" "Because it's a secure building." "Come on." "Look, you're not gonna tell Mom and Dad about me being pregnant, are you?" "You think that's a conversation I want to be a part of?" "Good, because I don't even know what I'm gonna do yet." "Listen to me." "You're gonna tell Declan, and you're gonna figure it out together, all right?" "Now stay close." "Come on." "(Horns honking)" "(Door opens)" "The power is out all up the coast." "Aside from a few boats, it's a wall of darkness out there." "Phone's dead." "My cell as well." "I imagine yours is, too." "(Cell phone beeps) Tower's gotta be down." "It's gotta be some kind of freak electrical event." "I suppose the, uh, upside to being so busy with Conrad's campaign is Carl's at his grandmother's for the week." "How quickly the safety of our loved ones trumps other deliberations." "For me, those things are one and the same." "That recording is far from a smoking gun." "I daresay it barely implies Conrad loaded it." "I suppose I should've expected as much from you..." "Knowing how you felt about Amanda." "It was she who came after my family." "Not the other way around." "Given your low opinion of me, why trust me now?" "I could easily alert Conrad of your plans the moment the power returns." "You were in love with Amanda's father, weren't you?" "Yes, I was." "What if I told you that Conrad has a laptop in his possession that could prove he was responsible for everything" " that happened to David Clarke?" " I'd want to know what's on it." "Then we share a common goal." "'Cause whatever's on it, it was enough to warrant Amanda's murder." "Now I've worked for your husband for six weeks." "I've gone through your home." "But he has a safe in his office that I can't get into." "By all means." "Allow me to satisfy both our curiosities." "(Horns honking)" "(Thuds) Ah!" "(Clatters)" "Damn it." "It's called Plexiglas, dumbass." "What does Charlotte see in you anyway?" "I get the "forbidden fruit" thing, but... you are particularly low hanging." "You have something over her?" "(Laughs) Yeah." "Blackmail is how I land all of my girls." "Just trying to explain the inexplicable." "Looks like your dad's getting cold." "(Door rattles)" "You know, maybe if he could get it open, then you two could go hang out, and Charlotte and I wouldn't have to see your face anymore." "Sorry." "I'm not going anywhere." "(Exhales) And unfortunately, neither are you." "Well, I appreciate your willingness to soldier on, folks." "I do, but it's important that you make sure that your loved ones are safe." "So please be careful out there, and we'll see you all just as soon as the power returns." "Okay?" "Thank you." "Yeah." "Did you manage to find cell service?" "No, just leaving myself a voice message for my closing speech." "Assuming the power's back on in time for the election." "Oh, I see you don't share my confidence in the Public Service Commission." "Too many years a Manhattanite." "Ha." "The chopper's, uh, fueled up and ready to go?" "Yep." "Just down the street, high atop Grayson Global." "You still planning your upstate barn burn in the morning regardless of the power?" "Oh, no." "No, no." "The only place that chopper is taking me tomorrow morning is home to retrieve my wife." "I want her by my side these next 24 hours." "Until then, I'm gonna retire to my suite for a little power nap." "(Woman) All five New York City boroughs and additional outlying areas have been completely powerless for going on five hours." "Thus far, authorities are at a loss to explain how multiple power grids in addition to numerous communications networks could have all failed at once..." "Carrion." "But I thought the only person with the ability to activate the program was the Falcon." "How could she do that if she's behind bars?" "She didn't have to." "You did it for her." "(Sighs) Emily's right." "The Falcon must have altered Carrion so that when we hacked the Amanda Clarke Foundation..." "It triggered the chain reaction." "And she made sure that you used Aiden's administration code to set everything in motion." "Everything that we did to prevent this..." "Will now prove that I caused it." "And we don't even know what they're going to do while the lights are out." "This could be catastrophic." "Aiden, you need to go dark." "No, I can take care of this..." "No, you listen to me." "I have been through this before." "I'm not gonna sit back and watch the Initiative turn you into their next David Clarke." "Careful where you step, Jack." "It's behind the desk there." "I'm not sure this safe is big enough for a computer." "(Safe beeps)" "Maybe we should keep this in hand." "If my husband's as diabolical as you seem to think he is, there's no telling what he would do if he caught us here." "It's not here." "Another dead end." "What's this?" "Conrad kept a file on my wife?" "No, I did." "For all the reasons I told you." "I don't need it anymore." "If you want to keep it, please do." "You might find it illuminating." "Jack..." "I'd like to ask Ashley about this mysterious laptop." "Ashley doesn't know where it is." "I just mean, I don't think that she would sit on something like that, not if she knew what it was." "Well, shall we continue the search?" "I don't have time." "The recording's gonna have to be enough." "You're going to turn it over to the police?" "To the press." "If my short career in politics taught me anything, it's that people will listen to anyone with a microphone." "I wouldn't miss Conrad's speech this afternoon." "Is there any way to make it seem like the Amanda Clarke account was hijacked by anyone other than Aiden?" "Yeah, well, in theory, sure." "But we accessed everything through the company mainframe, which I can't touch as long as the Grayson servers are offline." "And by the time they're back up, the authorities will already be after him." "But I can sat-link Carrion to track the investigation." "That way we'll know when the feds are on his tail." "Okay, so do it." "What happens when Aiden disappears?" "What does that mean for you?" "I can't think about that right now." "The hell?" "(Sighs)" "Falcon reprogrammed Carrion to reject my prompts." " What does this mean?" " Just that it's gonna be a while before Carrion likes Daddy more than he likes Mommy." "More immediately, it means that Aiden is running out of time." "(Sighs)" "I have to find Takeda." "I think he knows what the Initiative is up to." "E..." "Ems, wait." "Um, look, I can run Carrion diagnostic on auto." "I..." "I don't think you should be out there alone." "(Chuckles)" "Feel like putting on a show?" "(Crowd cheering) (Man) Hey, Charlotte, over here." " Hey, is your phone online?" " What are you doing?" "Oh, my God." "You downloaded that thing to your phone?" "That wasn't a publicity stunt at all, was it?" "You really like her." "Whatever, pervert." "Stop looking for a threesome." "That's why you wanted me out of the picture from the start." "You can't stand it that she loves me, because why wouldn't she want a rich, damaged party girl instead?" "God, seriously." "Shut up." "Does Charlotte know how you feel?" "I don't know." "Maybe it would be easier coming from me." "You know, the low-hanging fruit." "You say anything to her, and..." "You'll what?" "What are you gonna do?" "(Grunts)" "(Murmuring)" "We are back, people." "(Cheering)" "Let's recall the ground troops." "(Computers beep)" "Well, there is a sight for sore eyes." "Haven't I always said, my children can light up a room?" "How are you two?" "Where have you been?" "Walking for the last three hours." "I swear, I can hardly stand any longer." "Well, then don't, okay?" "Here." "Take my key." "Uh, Mary." "There you are." "Would you please show Charlotte to my suite upstairs and find her a change of clothes?" " Sure." " Thank you." "Thank you." " Take it easy, all right?" " Right this way." " Where's Emily?" " I don't know." "Phone's not working." "I haven't been able to reach her." "I gotta get back to the office." "I'll try her from there." "Daniel, I would steer clear of Grayson Global today if I were you." "You think this is the Initiative, don't you?" "Well, just, uh, take it from someone who knows it's better to err on the side of caution." "Advice from your mother and me that you should've followed from the beginning, by the way." "Listen, I have a feeling that they just targeted a slew of critical infrastructures." "And if that's the case, you can expect investors to be terrified that their money isn't safe." "I mean, they could be marching up from Wall Street with torches and pitchforks before this is over." "All the more reason to make sure the evidence points back to Aiden Mathis and not me." "No, listen, son, if you were the Initiative's patsy, we'd know by now, all right?" "(Man) Mr. Grayson, your helicopter is waiting." "And I'm off to pick up your mother." "This time, heed my advice, will you?" "Shut down the office." "Send the employees home." "Get yourself back here in front of the cameras with your family where you belong." "I believe it was Yogi Berra who once said, this is like deja vu all over again." "Your glibness never ceases to chill me to the bone." "Have you not given a moment's thought to your children?" "Neither came home last night." "They are both safe and sound at campaign headquarters." "And I brought the chopper to personally escort you to town for a camera-ready reunion." "Mm." "Well, you seem awfully confident that this election's going to turn in your favor." "Well, it already has, thanks to you, in part." "You may not have driven the final nail in my opponent's coffin, but by recording your conversation with the governor's wife about his tragic heart condition, you deftly made the public aware of his imminent need of one." "I wouldn't expect any concession calls just yet." "Jack Porter knows what happened on the Amanda." "And he's determined to find the computer that led to Amanda's death." "That's why he joined your campaign." "Well, luckily for all of us, the computer he seeks is currently deteriorating somewhere on the ocean floor." "Oh." "Jack said he was in possession of it up until the funeral." "He's convinced that you stole it back." "No, it wasn't me." "Trask, perhaps?" "Well, whatever the answer, he's going to sabotage your 4:00 press conference this afternoon with a recording of you and Nate Ryan." "Well, apparently, you are very eager to preserve my chances of victory, my dear." "I think you'll make a fine governor." "You think I'll make a fine resident of Albany." "Well, for starters, I'll simply instruct Ashley to make sure that he's barred from the gates this afternoon." "She's in it with him, you fool." "Oh, my poor Conrad." "Yet another female conquest hell-bent on your destruction." "It's like..." "Deja vu all over again." "(Exhales)" "Takeda?" "(Nolan) Oh, my God." "Don't touch him." "Who was David Clarke?" "My father." "And how much did he mean to you?" "Everything." "He meant everything to me." "He was a bad man." "Shut up." "He didn't do anything wrong." "Because of him, many people died." "So did he!" "(Both grunting)" "Good." "(Grunts)" "I need that anger and confidence." "You will learn to balance it with patience and observation." "I just want people to pay." "There are two paths to revenge." "One is failure." "The other will set you free at your journey's end." "And you're the guy who's gonna show me the way?" "(Inhales deeply)" "(Exhales)" "(Inhales and exhales)" "Whoever did this must have gained Takeda's trust." "Someone from the Initiative?" "This katana would've sliced through his shirt cleanly." "Not in a jagged pattern like that." "It's the only blade here." "The killer took the other weapon." "Whoever did this moved his body." "Why?" "Respect." "It was a fair fight." "They were evenly matched." "(Sighs)" "Takeda's infinity box?" "Who is this woman?" "I have no idea." "Do you think this could be Takeda's killer?" "I don't know." "But if he is, he's probably cleaning house, which means that Aiden could be next." "(Exhales)" "Or you." "(Declan) Charlotte." "Hey, thank God." "I went to the police." "They said Daniel bailed you out after the blackout." "So I came here." "I figured you'd be here" " or across the street or..." " You shouldn't be here, Declan." "Why?" "What happened to you?" "I told her everything." "How you freaked out and shoved me to the street when I said you weren't good enough for her." "Wait." "You..." "You told her that I did that to you?" " You're completely psychotic." " Look at his hand." " Look, Charlotte." " Ow!" "Ow!" "God." "I..." "I told you." "This is..." "I..." "I got this trying to bust out of the ATM vestibule that we were in." "That must have been when he stole the bail money." "What are you talking about?" "I didn't steal a thing from you." "Check his pockets." "No, you know what?" "I... (Huffs) Oh, my God." "Wow." "Can we get some help here, please?" "She is lying." " I'll take that." " I didn't take any..." "Thank you." "We got a problem, young man?" " No, there's no problem." "She's..." " Yeah, all right." "Let's go." "(Declan) She's lying!" "(Man) Fears of Wall Street tumbling when the market reopens tomorrow have authorities scrambling to understand exactly what happened when the lights went out and how our infrastructure could be so vulnerable." "People will be asking themselves..." "Mr. Grayson." "Tell me you're the guy who's gonna get our mainframe back online." "That would be the idea, yes." "How long are we talking here?" "We're looking at a full reboot starting with a comprehensive diagnostic, so I'd say, uh, several hours at least." "Several?" "Okay." "Well, as soon as the servers are up," "I want confirmation of data security." " You understand?" " You got it, boss." "Inside." "(Huffs)" "Unconfirmed reports now emerging that this was a coordinated cyber attack, originating from servers in Tunisia and Bahrain." "The question now is by whom... (Mutes TV)" "If memory serves, those are the very same countries where Mr. Mathis acquired companies on your behalf." "I guess you can understand that I'm a little busy making sure the authorities find a clear record of Aiden's dealings with those people." "Well, aren't you glad that we took the necessary measures to protect ourselves?" "It's too bad you didn't apply the same prophylactic instincts when it comes to Emily Thorne." "It's funny how everything suddenly comes clear, knowing she's with child." "(Scoffs)" "I..." "I..." "I don't know who's feeding you this intel, but suffice to say, Mother, it's corrupted." "I found the test in your garbage, Daniel." "Now I understand the reason for this shotgun wedding." "Allow me to speak from personal experience." "If she's withholding at this early stage, your marriage doesn't stand a chance." "Listen, Emily isn't pregnant." "The test wasn't hers." "Do you understand?" "Oh, dear God." "Conrad, the press have been hounding me about moving your speech up to 3:00." "The staff are prepared to accommodate them." "Well, the simple answer is no." "We announced the speech would be at 4:00, and that is exactly the time I'm gonna be delivering it." "Okay." "I'll let everyone know." "Yeah, uh, with the possible exception of Jack Porter." "Why?" "Without Jack's contributions, you wouldn't be where you are now in the polls." "Yeah, well, let's just say that I have reason to suspect that we'll be better off in the home stretch without him." "And you know, there's no point in drawing any attention to his absence." "Just let security know that he's not allowed on-site at any time, for any reason." "Also, uh, I do trust that you won't mention anything to him directly." "Of course not." "(Clicking keys)" "(Cell phone chimes)" "_" "(Sighs)" "(Error tone sounds)" "Damn it." "(Sighs)" "What the hell were you doing in Japan, Amanda?" "(Door closes)" "Oh, thank God you're okay." "What happened?" "Takeda was murdered." "I'm sorry." "(Sniffles)" "Do you know this man?" "Somebody who works for the Initiative?" "I found a bunch of surveillance photos in Takeda's loft." "I think that he was Takeda's next target and probably his killer." "I want to find him, Aiden, and I want to find him now." "Or we could just end this." "Just leave it all behind." "Go." "What?" "Come away with me." "We..." "We could disappear together." "(Voice breaks) You killed him." " Emily, let me explain!" " Explain what, why you murdered the only man who ever believed in us, or why you lied about it?" "(Grunts)" "Takeda was coming after me, not the other way around, when I told him I was gonna take you away from all of this." "That wasn't your decision to make." "I was gonna finish what I started with or without you." "No, you weren't, because Takeda was never gonna let you finish." "What the hell are you talking about?" "We were not the only ones affected by Flight 197." "Takeda's fiancee was on that plane when it went down." "That's impossible." "I know that flight manifest inside and out." "You think I didn't investigate all 246 people on that plane?" "There were 247 people on that plane." "Mai Aoki..." "She was a 24-year-old flight attendant." "She took the jump seat on a deadhead to New York." "The jump seat was never recorded." "Please." "You have to believe me." "Takeda trained you as a soldier for his war, not yours." "And when I threatened to expose him, he made it very clear that only one of us was gonna get out of that room alive." "I swear." "No, I don't believe you." "I don't believe you." "If you knew all that time that Takeda had a separate agenda, why wait until now to tell me?" "Because I knew how much he meant to you." "I knew how much you felt you owed him." "I felt that you would've felt obliged to have taken his mantle on as your own." " I kept this secret from you..." " No." "Because I love you." "(Both panting)" "(Cell phone rings)" "(Ring)" "Look, just..." "Just ignore him this once, please." "(Ring)" "(Sniffles)" "(Ring)" "(Beeps)" "(Static crackling) Daniel, hi." "Ems, hey." "Daniel, can you hear me?" "Y..." "Yeah, you're breaking up." " I can't hear you." " I've been at Grayson Global all day." "Hello?" "I've just been dealing with this I.T. guy who's trying to get the servers up and running." " Can we meet later?" " (Voice cuts off) Daniel?" "(Line crackling and clicking) Em?" "Hello?" "(Exhales) Damn it." "Where..." "Where are you going?" "To stop Daniel from implicating you in all of this." "Look, I..." "I did whatever I did because I thought it was best for you." "All I ever needed from you was the truth." "(Sniffles)" "Please don't run away." "(Huffs)" "I'm not running, Aiden." "But I think it's time that you did." "(Telephone rings)" "(Ring) Hello?" "(Conrad) Daniel." "You know, I thought we agreed you'd shut down the office and get yourself back here." "No one's here but the I.T. guy." "As soon as the servers are up," "I'm turning Mathis in to the authorities." "Look, the feds can catch on without any assistance from you." "The more attention you draw, the more you risk implicating your own involvement." "(Elevator bell dings)" "If I can't appeal to your sense of self-preservation, perhaps I can appeal to your sense of duty to this family." "I need you by my side during my closing speech this afternoon," " 4:00 sharp." " Yeah, yeah, fine." "I'll be there." "I'll be there." " Hey." "How are you?" " Hey." " I'm good." "How are you?" " Ohh." "Good." "My dad wants me at his final campaign speech." "But I'm not going." "There's far more pressing business here." "Well, what's going on?" "Where are all your employees?" "I sent them all home." "You remember how I told you that the Initiative was planning something?" "Yeah." "Well, I think they're behind whatever's going on." "Why?" "They're reporting the cyber attack originated in Bahrain and Tunisia." "Exactly the same places where Helen Crowley had us buying up companies." "Aiden made those transactions, didn't he?" "You have that on record." "Assuming they haven't been destroyed or altered." "I can't be sure until the mainframe's back up and running." "For all I know, Mathis was patsying me this whole time." "(Knock on door) Your system's down for the count, my friend." "You can't be serious." "Well, unfortunately, the processor cords were fried in the power surge." "So I need to replace both of them, which could take another 24 hours." "(Exhales) All right." "I'll let you know as soon as the cords get in." "(Groans and exhales)" "Well, I guess this means I'll be at my father's side after all." " You mind joining me?" " I want to be wherever you are." "All right." "I'm gonna make a final sweep of the office." "Meet me across the street." "4:00, okay?" "Yeah, I'll see you there." "(Elevator bell dings) I love you." "(Man) Mr. Grayson." "We found a man trying to sneak in the back entrance." "He says his name's Porter." "Declan." "What can I do for you?" "I need to see Charlotte." "He's fine." " Thanks." " That's all right." "You can show your gratitude at the polls." "I mean, you are old enough to vote, aren't you?" "Well, it seems that Declan is old enough to participate in a variety of adult activities." "Charlotte's gone for a walk to clear her head." "Shall we?" "I've always fancied us as having a..." "healthy respect for one another." "I'd say we've had our ups and downs." "A respect born of the fact that you've understood your rightful place in this family in that you don't have one." "So imagine my confusion when you have the audacity to show up here after everything you've done." "That's what I want to talk to Charlotte about." "This new friend of hers, Regina..." "I don't know how she got those bruises, but I would never do something like that." "It's just that Charlotte believes everything she says, like she cast some kind of spell on her." "It isn't a spell, Declan." "She's pregnant." "She's what?" "Oh, I see she hasn't told you." "And for good reason." "There's gotta..." "There's gotta be a mistake." "Oh, there is, and I am done looking at it." "Stay the hell away from my daughter, or your ability to procreate will be nothing but a distant memory." "Ooh, it seems the Porter boys are causing this family nothing but grief of late." "What was that about?" "Nothing." "I took care of it." "So I trust that you've managed to find a way to stop Jack from sharing your transgressions with the masses." "No, our transgressions, dear, and yes." "I mean, if you think I'd allow him to commandeer the podium, you've sorely underestimated me." "Well, it's a habit of mine." "A habit you'd be wise to break." "(Cell phone chimes)" "_" "_" "(Nolan) Aiden?" "What are you doing here?" "Where's Ems?" "She's at Grayson Global with Daniel to ascertain when the servers are gonna come back online." " I'll be ready when they are." " Don't bother." "It's time to accept the consequences for what I've set in motion." "Not if we can figure out who's really responsible for all this." "If I can I.D. Takeda's killer, then..." "Maybe we can take the spotlight off you." "That man didn't kill Takeda, Nolan." "I did." "Now I know that you don't understand, but trust me when I tell you, I did it for Emily." "Give her this for me." "Please." "I was such a fool..." "Thinking Emily would walk away from her revenge, especially for love." "Oh, if she did it once, she's... capable of doing it again." "What do you mean, if she did it once?" "I..." "I assumed that you knew." "After everything that happened last year, she immediately left for Japan." "I..." "There was too much collateral damage." "Everything was going off the rails." "She had to walk away." "I'm..." "I'm getting the whole "walking away" thing, Nolan." "What I'm not getting is for whom." "Jack Porter." "I guess I wasn't the only one harboring secrets." "I'm sorry." "You've been an unexpected friend." "Thank you." "What?" "Why are you looking at me like that?" "Nothing." "It's just," "Declan just freaking out like that, stealing your money..." "It doesn't sound like him." "Yeah, well, yet another example of people showing their true colors under pressure." "You don't need him to raise the baby." "We could do it together." "(Cell phone rings)" "(Ring)" "(Rings and beeps)" "Hello?" "Charlotte, would you please just listen to me?" "I swear to you, I never laid a finger on Regina." "She..." "She faked those bruises, and... and I..." "I didn't take any money either." "She must have planted it on me." "And why would she do that?" "Because she's in love with you or obsessed or I..." "Just listen to me." "Check her phone." "She's got that..." "That internet video of you two kissing downloaded like some stalker." "But you know what?" "I don't even know why I'm talking about that." "You..." "Your mother told me about the baby." "My mother?" "You know what?" "I think it's great." "I just want to see you." "I mean, if you would just tell security to... to let me in to the press conference..." "I'm not even there right now." "I'm..." "Are you with Regina?" "No." "No, no, no." "I'm..." "I'm with Daniel." "We're... (Line crackles) Hello?" "Did you download that Trendist video of us onto your phone?" "No." "Did Declan just tell you that?" "He's a total liar and a thief." "Let me see your phone." "No." "Good-bye, Regina." "(Man) Yet while New Yorkers continue to struggle with the lingering effects of the cyber attack, the State Election Board has yet to decide if tomorrow's gubernatorial election will go on as planned." "There are concerns... (Emily) Nolan, I saw him." "The man Takeda was tracking was just at Grayson Global posing as I.T. (Mutes TV)" "I take it you haven't found a match." "What?" "Ems, Aiden was just here." "(Sighs)" "He told me he killed Takeda." "He wanted me to give this to you." "What is it?" "Her name is Mai Aoki." "Apparently she was Takeda's fiancee." "She died on Flight 197, too." "Takeda had his own reven-genda?" "Yeah, and Aiden knew the whole time." "He lied to me." "Or... he just wanted you to see that there is more to life than revenge." "Just like your father." "(Cell phone rings)" "(Ring) It's Jack." "Jack, where are you?" "I'm downtown." "Hey, you remember the computer" "Amanda used to blackmail Conrad with?" "Yeah, why?" "Well, I'm about to get my hands on it." "I need your help to crack the password." "No, no, Jack, slow your roll." "Wh..." "Where are you getting it from?" "I'm picking it up from Grayson Global in a few minutes." "I'm gonna bring that bastard down once and for..." "(Error tone beeps)" "We lost him." "What is he talking about?" "I threw that computer in the ocean myself." "(Computer beeping) Ems, we got a match." "Gregor Hoffman." "Three tours with German special forces." "Suspected of killing a diplomat outside a U.S. embassy in North Africa." "He is an assassin." "Hoffman wasn't at Grayson Global to fix their servers." "He was only there to gain access." "Yeah, and Jack's walking into a trap." " Nolan, come on." " Wait, wait, wait." "I've got bars." " We've gotta keep moving." " No, I..." "I can't!" "Em, I'll lose the signal!" "Just keep trying!" "(Applause)" "(Cheering)" "(Cheering continues)" "There are bonds in this world that cannot be severed." "And the bonds forged in the fires of hardship are as strong as the bonds of blood."

"(Numerous cell phones beep and chime)" "It's an act of defiance in the face of those... (Cell phone chimes) Who seek to destroy our way of life."

"(Indistinct shouting continues)" "Thank God your phone is working." "What the hell is going on?" "(Nolan) The Initiative just blew Grayson Global to kingdom come." " Where is Emily?"

"Look, it started when Victoria asked me to help her track down her firstborn son." " Oh, come on." " Jack, bear with me." "Years ago, she hired a hacker named the Falcon to digitally obliterate all traces of her son." "Once I got onto the Falcon's trail," "I stumbled on to the angry bird's latest gig working for a bunch of terrorists." "The ones responsible for the blackout?" "And the downing of Flight 197 that got blamed on David Clarke." "Now my guess is there was evidence on Amanda's computer that related to that." "Who were you supposed to go meet?" "Ashley." "(Exhales)" "She texted me." "Where are you going?" "(Exhales) To get the truth." "Jack..." "(Siren wailing in distance)" "Conrad just tried to murder you." "If you go anywhere near him, he will finish the job!" "Not if he thinks he already did." " I'm fine." " Got her." " Emily, oh, my God." "You're hurt." " No." " Are you okay?" " No, I'm fine." "Really, I'm okay." "What were you doing in there?" "(Panting) Looking for you." "You're crazy, you know that?" "I'm so sorry." "I..." "I think I should get this checked out." " (Man) You wanna help me out?" " Yeah, you want me to go with you?" "No, no, no, please, these people need help." " Daniel!" " (Emily) Honestly." " You sure?" " Go." "Just go." " You sure?"

"Nolan, tell me that Jack's okay." "There was a man trapped on the 27th floor." " It's okay." "He's fine." " Oh, thank God." "He got my message in time, but now we've got a bigger problem." "He knows that Conrad was trying to kill him, and now he's out digging for answers," " starting with Ashley." " Ashley?" "She was the one who sent him the text to rendezvous at Grayson Global." "Ems, we have to stop him before he does something stupid." "No, he's not gonna take my calls, Nolan." "Because he won't take anybody's calls." "He destroyed his phone so no one could track him." "I am telling you, he is out for blood." "Damn it." "We are the first responders." "Cell subscribers in the tristate area..." "No, we're just glad that you're safe, Grace." "The text "Long live David Clarke"..." "No, the company will be closed until further notice." "We'll be in touch." "Okay, bye." "(Muffled grunt)" "When I take my hand off your mouth, you don't make a sound, you understand?" "I know you set me up." "Set you up for what?" "You texted me to meet you at Grayson Global." "I was in the building when it exploded." "I didn't text you." "I swear." "Look." "How do I know you didn't just delete the text?" "Jack, I didn't text you." "What did it say?" "That you had the computer" "Victoria was pretending to help me find." "She must have told Conrad that you were on to him." "And then he used it to lure me into the building." "Wait." "But that would mean that Conrad knew about the explosion before it happened." "Don't tell anyone you saw me here." "The only advantage I have right now is that Grayson thinks I'm dead." "You can reach me through Nolan." "Is everyone out?" " We're going floor to floor." " Uh-huh." " But the blast was contained to the 27th and 28th." " Right." "There's a man pinned under some rubble that we're still trying to free." " He's still alive?" " Miraculously." "Who could that be?" "We'll know soon enough." "(Wailing continues)" " What the hell's he doing here?" " (Man) Stand back." "Oh, returning to the scene of the crime." "Daniel, thank God you're all right." "Where's Emily?" "On the way to the hospital, you son of a bitch." "(Grunts)" "Your father put that bomb on Flight 197, and now our offices explode?" ""Long live David Clarke," right?" "Okay, you don't understand." "You're making a mis..." "No, no." "Officer." "Officer." "This man is a disgruntled former employee who's connected to everything that's happening." "He's... he..." "His name's Aiden Mathis." "I promise you, I have all the information you need to open up an investigation." "Thank merciful God you found her." "We must get Charlotte home." "It's not safe for her here." "Of course." "The chopper's on standby." "Listen, a..." "Are you all right?" " I'm fine." "I just want to go home." " Okay." "(Man) Watch your backs." "Coming through!" "(Charlotte) Declan!" "(Man) All right, clear the way now." "Coming through." "(Crying) Oh, God." "Declan." " (Man) Please step aside." " Oh, my God." "(Charlotte crying)" "Is he gonna be okay?" "Oh, God!" "Declan!" "What were you doing in there?" "(Siren wailing in distance)" "You were right." "The text came from Ashley's phone." "Are you sure she's not playing you?" "She's actually one of the only people I do trust." "So... it was Conrad" " or Victoria." " Or both." "(Cell phone rings)" "(Ring)" "(Ashley) Nolan, is Jack there?" "What is it, Ash?" "It's, uh, it's Declan." "Apparently, he was inside the building." "He's been injured." " I..." "Is he okay?" " I don't know." "They've taken him to the metro hospital." "That's all the information I have." "Jack, I'm so sorry, but I have to go." "Jack, look, you may trust Ashley, but I do not." "You could be walking into a trap." "You can't risk getting caught." "(Emily) He won't." "I'll make sure of it." "You told Emily?" "She's practically a Grayson." "I trust Emily with my life." "So did Amanda." "It's time you did, too." "(Unzips backpack)" "How'd you get all this?" "Spend a few years in juvie, you learn a few tricks." "Declan's in I.C.U., room five." "I would take the south entrance in, but be careful." "Victoria and Charlotte are still in the waiting room." "There's no way they're not gonna recognize me." "Well, I'll keep them distracted, but you can only be in there for a few minutes." "I'll meet you back here when you're done." "Emily." "(Exhales)" "I'm not gonna pretend I... understand why you're doing all this for me." "You've been suffering." "You're angry." "Believe me, I..." "I get it." "Good." "'Cause I'm not sure how all this is gonna play out, but I was hoping that you'd still be Carl's godmother if something should happen to me." "Part of taking care of Carl means not letting anything happen to you." "Now get dressed." "Your brother needs you." "How is he?" "Any word?" "Ah, the ubiquitous Emily Thorne." "They'll only talk to family." "We're completely in the dark." "Have you heard from Jack?" "He's not answering his phone." "That's assuming he has reception." "Conrad has all of his men looking everywhere for him." "How thoughtful." "Well, hopefully he turns up unharmed." "You know, it could easily have been Daniel in that hospital bed." "I would think that you would want to spend every precious moment with him, and yet, here you are, looking for Jack." "I'm here for Charlotte." "Emily, there's something I have to tell you." "(Monitor beeping rhythmically)" "(Sniffles)" "(Lowered voice) Dec. Hey, man." "Hey, it's me." "Hey." "Jack?" "Why are you a nurse?" "(Laughs)" "It was the only way I could get in to see you." "What are the doctors saying?" "I don't know." "I just woke up." "What happened?" "There was a bomb at Grayson Global." "I think Conrad meant it for me." "I'm sorry, man." "(Sniffles)" "Ahh." "Look, when you get outta here, we're gonna take Carl and we're gonna go as far away from the Graysons as possible, okay?" "Oh, it's gonna be hard to leave Charlotte." "I know, but..." "This is serious, Dec." "Yeah, I know, so is this." "She's pregnant." "Carl's gonna have a cousin." "Don't worry." "I made sure the Graysons are all still in the city." "No one's gonna see me here." "(Sighs)" "(Exhales) I, um... wanted to... apologize." "It's done, Aiden." "Just go." "Save yourself." "But that's..." "That's just it, okay?" "I..." "I want to save you, too, from this empty life of..." "of vengeance." "It's time." "For you, maybe." "But I can't just walk away." "Not now." "Maybe not ever." "Certainly not for me." "I spoke to Nolan." "I know that you were prepared to abandon your vendetta for Jack last summer." "That was a different time." "So much has happened since then." "Here." "It's the key to that villa on Capri that we used to talk about, growing old together." "You keep it." "If you change your mind, then I can join you there." "Hey." "I hope you get what you're looking for, Amanda." "No one has ever deserved it more than you." "Good-bye." "Hey." "Uh, you can go in for a few minutes, okay?" "He's a very brave young man." "Oh, my God." "Declan." "I am so sorry." "I never should've listened to Regina." "None of this would've happened." "No, no, no, no." "It's not your fault." "I'm just..." "I can't believe you waited out there all night." "The doctors wouldn't tell me anything." "I was sick with worry." "You know what?" "They say I'm gonna be fine." "Thank God." "I cannot face all of this without you." "You are stronger than you think, Charlotte." "I need you to believe that." "After all, with us as parents, the kid's gonna be a handful, isn't he?" "Are you sure that's what you want?" "Don't you?" "You're gonna be a great mother." "Based on what?" "I have the worst role models in parental history." "You know exactly what not to do." "(Laughs) (Laughs)" "Aw, that's what I wanted to see." "Go home and get some rest." "If not for yourself, then at least for the baby." "Time you see me next, I'm gonna be as good as new." "(Knock on door)" "(Nolan) Emily?" "(Exhales deeply)" "Ems?" "Are you all right?" "Aiden's gone." "He's safe for now." "(Sighs)" "He was... actually able to walk away from you?" "In no small part because you told him what happened with Jack last year." "I..." "I didn't know that you were keeping it a secret from him." "After everything that he has sacrificed for you, don't you think he deserved the truth?" "(Sighs) He deserves better." "So does Jack." "Speaking of..." "How's he holding up?" "What do you mean?" "He was supposed to be with you." "I dropped him off at Nolcorp last night." "He wanted to stay close to the hospital." "No, I..." "I was there late." "He never showed up." "Oh, God." "Okay." "You go to the hospital in case he went to check on Declan." "I'll go to the Graysons' in case he decided to go after them." "Maybe you should let him." "You and Mom were right." "It turns out Aiden Mathis really was part of it." "Oh." "Yeah, he wiped out the Amanda Clarke Foundation." "Our money is gone." "Money comes." "Money goes." "Oh, no, no, no, no." "I'm talking every penny here." "And I never cashed that check you wrote me, so it's not even worth the paper it's written on." "We've got nothing." "We have what matters." "We have our name, Daniel." "We're Graysons." "We stare down adversity." "We rebuild, brick by brick." "You and I are gonna show the world that when the hour is darkest, we Graysons shine the brightest." "It's a nice speech, Dad." "I wish you luck on your crusade, but I won't be joining you." "I'm sorry." "Paris is off the table." "We need you here." "You really think I want to be a part of this anymore?" "I'm starting a new life with Emily." "The only reason you have a life is because you're my son and I wasn't about to let them kill you yesterday!" "You knew?" "I was powerless to stop it." "Mitigating the collateral damage was my only option, and thankfully, it proved to be an effective one." "This is what you call mitigating damage?" "Have you lost your damn mind?" "!" "Compared to the Initiative's previous acts of terror, this was a triumph!" "No lives were lost, including yours." "And for that, you are entirely in my debt, which is why when I'm elected governor tonight," "I expect to see you by my side." "So just, um, try to relax." "You know, the heart surgeon's on standby, and we'll get you in there the second that stent arrives." "All right." "Let's pray for green lights." "Right." "See you soon." "Hey." "Uh..." "Heart surgery?" "I thought Charlotte told Emily you were gonna be fine." "Well, I lied." "Listen, if..." "If it doesn't go well," "I don't want her last memory to be about that." "I want it to be about us and our kid and..." "Oh, I really needed to see her smile." "And she did." "(Exhales)" "They're flying that stent thing in from North Carolina." "Apparently, it's gonna come down to the wire." "No, no, no, no, no." "I'm gonna call in the best doctors, all right?" "I..." "I'll spend every dime that I have." "But what I need, Nolan, is time." "You..." "You can't buy me that." "Nolan..." "If I don't make it," "Jack is gonna need you more than ever." "Hey." "I will always be there for Jack." "But you..." "Are not going anywhere, Declan." "You got that?" "(Conrad on TV) Jack Porter, family friend and staunch supporter, remains unaccounted for while his brother Declan fights for his life." "And though we hope for the best, we fear the worst." "I urge you to cast your vote and show these enemies of freedom that we will prevail." "I'm surprised to see you're not voting alongside your husband." "(Mutes TV)" "And I wish I could say I were equally surprised to see you here unannounced in my home." "I just wanted to see if Conrad was planning to go through with his party, seeing as Jack is still missing." "Well, the party will go on, and Conrad will be there, front and center." "(Chuckles)" "But not you." "You will soon learn..." "That there are limits to what a woman is willing to endure for appearances." "Meaning?" "You and Daniel." "Whatever your reasons for marrying him, you'll never convince me it's for love." "And by and by, you will grow tired of perpetuating this charade." "Until one morning, you will wake up hollow with nothing but regret and misery to fill your days." "Seems to me that regret and misery is everything that Daniel's looking to leave behind." "Same with Charlotte." "She seems enchanted with the idea of Paris." "Maybe she'll even want to raise her baby there." "And now you presume to know what's best for Charlotte as well." "Victoria, I don't make decisions for your children." "I'm sorry that you can't see that." "Excuse me." "You know, there always was something that I could never put my finger on about you." "You and I have more in common than either one of us cares to admit." "Tell me." "Ferocity." "An embedded determination to get whatever we want, no matter what the cost." "Do not forget that I have been at this much longer than you." "And if you continue to try to tear my children away from me," "I promise you that you will not only fail, but you will suffer." "And have no doubt..." "I will show no mercy." "How sad for you, Victoria..." "That of your three children, the two that you decided to acknowledge want nothing to do with you." "That's the truth." "(Click, TV unmutes)" "(Woman) The suspect, identified as Aiden Mathis, was detained earlier this evening at the Canadian border." "Mathis had been recently fired by Grayson Global and may be the mastermind behind the cyber attacks on New York and yesterday's bombing." "Aiden Mathis has been taken into custody." "Excuse me if I skip the champagne." "Daniel, he's far from innocent." "You know, I don't take joy in destroying the lives of others, innocent or not." "You must get past this." "A choice left unresolved has the power to ruin your soul." "I know." "You know, Aiden didn't blow up Grayson Global." "It was the Initiative." "And Dad knew all about it." " What?" " Yeah, he's one of them." "And so are you, for all I know." "But either way, you're completely alone now." "Exactly what you deserve." "Judging from your lackluster appearance, you've yet to see today's exit polls." "If they are to be believed, you will be attending tonight's gala on the arm of New York's governor-elect." "You knew about that bomb." "Positioned campaign headquarters so that you could be a first responder." "You've been with the Initiative all along." "There is no Initiative, my dear." "There never was." "Not really." "Simply a consortium of savvy businesspersons who perfected the art of profiting off other people's fear." "If human catastrophe strikes, the public spends money." "Lots of it." "And if one were able to anticipate such disasters, they'd stand to make a fortune." "Of course, predicting these acts of God is impossible." "Unless, of course, one decides to... play God." "On the heels of Flight 197, the F.A.A. granted billions in security contracts." "The stocks for those companies quadrupled." "And those that were in the know collected handsomely." "So when I was tipped off about the inevitability of recent events, I opted in." "Tipped off by whom?" "(Helen) Hello, Conrad." "So what do you want from me?" "Well, your unique position and the financial services you were able to provide to us worked out so well in the past..." "I had no idea you were gonna use them to blow up a jet liner." "Nor will you have any idea what we have planned this time around." "I accepted Helen's proposal on one condition:" "Entry to their inner circle, granting me, among other things, intimate access to their timetable." "That's despicable, even for you." "I did what I had to do for our future." "We are now positioned to triple our previous wealth," " and our hands remain clean." " Not mine." "You led me to believe that Daniel was in danger all summer." "I committed murder to protect him!" "It's a mistake that nearly derailed everything, and if it weren't for my mastery of persuasion, you'd probably be buried beside Helen Crowley right now." "Do you expect me to thank you?" "No, I expect you to perform the role of devoted wife like you never have before." "You fail to do so, then prepare to return to the penniless squalor from whence I plucked you." "Well, the hellcat I married rears her declasse head." "Oh, you be sure to leave her at home when you join me on stage tonight..." "Once you've come to your feeble senses." "(Nolan) Jack."

"His aortic artery ruptured." "(Crying) Oh, no." "Jack was just here." "(Sniffles)" "He's..." "He's going out of his mind." "I don't know what he's gonna do next." "I do." "We have to get to the victory party now." "I'll meet you there." "(Sniffles)" "My brother's dead." "Oh, Jack, I'm so sorry." "Sorry it wasn't me?" "You betrayed me." "You used me and then you tried to get rid of me." "No, I promise you," "I didn't know anything about that bomb." " Conrad..." " Stop lying!" "Do it." "(Exhales)" "Pull the trigger." "I deserve it." "No." "What you deserve... is to explain to your grandchild why he doesn't have a father." "What you deserve is to live a very long, very painful, tortured life." "Unlike your husband." "If I were you, I'd break the news to Charlotte very gently." "You know how she takes these things." "We've canceled your request for an attorney, Mr. Mathis." "What?" "Y..."

"But she did leave you a note." "_" "It seems she'll be enduring your father's massive hoax all by herself." "No, you're the hoax, Mathis." "Everything about you has been a lie since the day you showed up." "Yes, well, fortunately, the authorities don't share your little paranoid delusion." "They let you go?" "Because I'm not Initiative, Daniel." "I didn't blow up your family's godforsaken company any more than my father willingly put a bomb on Flight 197." "Every drop of blood the Initiative has spilled is on Grayson hands as well, and you know it." "And the sooner that you start to repay that debt, the better it's gonna be for everyone, including the woman who you..." "claim to love." "You don't know a damn thing about our relationship." "Well, I know enough to know that if you two were married, you'd spend the rest of your life regretting it." "(Both grunting)" "You stupid, arrogant boy." "(Grunting)" "(Grunts)" "Ohh!" "I've just given you something a man like you is rarely offered..." "A second chance." "You're going to let Emily go and you're going to let her go tonight." "(Grunts)" "Thanks." "Excuse me."

"The Falcon, as you call her, denied involvement." " Said it was all you." " Of course she did." "Her paychecks are signed by the Initiative." "I believe you've heard of them." "They were the ones that stole the program and kidnapped and killed my girlfriend..." "Padma Lahari."

"It's terrible news." "You know, I've just finished modifying my speech to include a moment of silence for the boy." "I doubt there'll be a dry eye in the house." "You never miss a trick, do you?" "You don't get to where we are by ignoring opportunity." "No, I suppose you don't." "Well, then I think that you're all set." " I'll let everyone know." " Thank you."

"(Elevator doors close)" "(Man, amplified voice) Ladies and gentlemen, your next governor of the state of New York..." "Conrad Grayson!" "(Cheering)" "(Amplified voice) Thank you." "(Cheering continues)" "Thank you!" "I just received a very gracious phone call from Governor Stoddard... (Cheering)" "In which he congratulated me on the tremendous honor bestowed upon me by the state of New York this evening!" "(Cheering)" "Thank you." "But before I express my profound gratitude," "I'd like to set aside politics in lieu of humanity for a moment and acknowledge the loss of an extraordinary young man..." "Mr. Declan Porter." "He's the brother to the hero of my campaign," "Jack Porter, and a dear friend to my daughter, Charlotte, whom my wife is at home comforting at this moment." "Victoria, Charlotte, my heart is with you." "(Doorbell rings)" "Can I help you?" "Patrick?" "Hello, mother." "(Gasps)" "You know, folks, let's not let Declan Porter's death simply remind us of the cowards who are responsible for the attacks on our city." "Let us rather see his sacrifice as an inspiration..." "An inspiration to face our own uncertain future with strength and unity, because one thing is certain." "Thanks to the courageous resolve of the people of New York," "I will be leading us into the most exciting future this state has ever known!" "(Cheering)" "Jack, don't do it." "Thank you!" "Emily, go away." "This has nothing to do with you." "(Crying) It has everything to do with me." "If I had only left you alone from the beginning, none of this would be happening." "(Crowd cheering)" "Don't throw your life away because of the choices that I've made." "What choices?" "What are you talking about?" "Jack, look at me." "(Cheering continues)" "Deep down inside, you've always known the truth." "I'm Amanda Clarke."
