02x16 - Evil Did I Dwell, Lewd I Did Live

[bunniefuu]

Previously on "Blindspot." I know you're using.

I don't know how bad it is, but I know.

You gotta learn how to relax.

I have a court document that says that - he changed his name 12 years ago.

- Why would he do that?

Did you change your name?

You were the one who said you didn't wanna talk about the past.

I'm gonna go.

This is from my source.

He's given me coordinates on the dead drop.

Uhh!

Gah!

Uhh!

Who are you?

Who sent you?

- There you go.

- They were...

right?

What're we toasting to?

- No.

- Yes.

- Come on.

- Really?

You gonna make us do this every round?

Yes!

It's bad luck to take a sh*t without toasting.

- Says who?

- Says my Uncle Ricky.

- Oh.

- And everyone else.

Cheers to Uncle Ricky.

Drink up.

Hey, there she is.

Wait, I thought you had that thing.

I...

I had to reschedule.

Jane, true or false: it's bad luck to take a sh*t without toasting.

Uh, false?

- Done!

- Whatever, she has amnesia.

You're many drinks behind.

Let's catch you up.

- Yeah, so you two...

- So much liquor.

...k*ll that bottle.

- Okay.

- It's time to get to the real good stuff.

Oh, now we move on to the good stuff?

Mmm.

Mm-hmm.

So, when did Oliver reschedule for?

Uh, we're gonna figure it out.

You told him you ran a background check on him, - and he freaked out.

- Pretty much.

Did he at least say why he changed his name?

Uh, no, we didn't get that far.

He was pretty hung up on the whole "massive invasion of privacy" thing.

Boys.

So sensitive.

Listen, about before...

Patterson, stay out of my business.

I am not trying to be nosy.

You're my friend, and I'm worried about you.

Sorry, I was just, um...

Snooping?

No, no, um...

- Uh-huh?

- Maybe a little bit, yeah.

You did a really nice job.

- Thank you.

- Yeah.

Put it all together before I knew that...

Allie was moving.

So, after the baby's born, are you just...

gonna go back and forth, or...

I'm sorry, it's none of my business.

No, it's okay.

I don't know what we're gonna do.

Well, I'm sure you'll figure it out.

- It's Nas.

- Hmm?

She's been att*cked.

The doctors are still checking on Nas.

She seems okay.

Any idea who att*cked her?

Shepherd must've caught wind that Nas's source had reached out.

I wanted to stop Nas from getting this.

It's yours...

whatever's on that was worth k*lling or dying for.

- So it must be big.

- Or it was a decoy.

Nas's source has been dark for a year.

Then out of the blue he re-establishes contact?

Think he was setting her up for an ambush?

No, he's always given her valuable intel.

I mean, he told her about me being dropped in Times Square before it happened.

Yeah, and he also gave Nas key details on Sandstorm's org chart, Shepherd's interest in me.

It doesn't make sense that he suddenly turned against her.

Okay, what if it wasn't him on the call?

Sandstorm could've gotten that number and used it to set up a trap.

Whoa, this drive is crazy encrypted.

This is a lot of work for a decoy.

How long is it gonna take you to decrypt it?

All night, at least.

I need you to keep working on it.

Hey, are you okay?

Shepherd's always one step ahead of us.

First, the HMX sale, Sean Clark, and now this.

So when are we gonna get a break?

When?

Listen, we're gonna get her.

Okay, I know something is on that drive.

What's-her-face is kinda cute, with the hair.

- Oh...

- What?

Agents Reade and Zapata.

It's your lucky day.

The hot water's working in the showers?

We finally have soft serve at the commissary?

Close...

you've been selected for today's random drug screen.

Oh, I don't think you understand the definition of "lucky." - It'll just take a few minutes.

- Couldn't you have, like, given us a heads-up on this?

I don't think you understand the definition of "random." Agent Reade?

I'm coming down with something.

I got a stomach bug.

I'm afraid I can't let you out of my sight until you've completed the drug screen.

No, seriously, I should get home...

Sorry...

Bureau policy.

You have to eat.

I'm not hungry.

You still sleeping on the floor?

I like the floor.

No one likes the floor, Roman.

Those sheets feel like steel wool.

So, what'd you do last night?

- Mmm...

- Okay, I'll start.

I counted the concrete seams in my cell.

117, if you were wondering.

Um, I went for a...

a quick drink with the team.

What about that guy you're seeing?

The, uh, the one who sent the flowers.

We're kind of on the outs.

You don't need to feel guilty for your social life.

I just don't like seeing you like this.

Look, I...

I know I don't have much, but what little I do have, I owe to you.

Hey, how are you?

Yeah, I'm...

I'm fine.

You should've seen the other guy.

All right, what do you got?

I decoded the USB.

It had a username and password for an FTP site.

And I was just about to log in when you got here.

- That's Shepherd.

- And Borden.

What else can you get from these files?

Location?

Timestamp?

The metadata's been wiped.

Zoom in on that newspaper box.

That's yesterday's paper.

These were taken less than 24 hours ago.

That's my inside source phone.

I see you've logged onto my FTP site.

I'm lucky I got out with my life.

Obviously Shepherd doesn't want you seeing those photos.

I can see why.

You've got quite the eye.

Where were they taken?

It doesn't matter where Shepherd was yesterday.

It matters where she's going to be today.

- And you know?

- Yes.

Prove it.

This needs to happen tomorrow.

You just tell Shepherd to be there at 3:00.

She'll be there.

Who's Borden talking to?

Where's Shepherd going to be?

Bring $500,000 in unmarked bills to Trinity Plaza at noon, and I'll tell you the rest.

Come alone.

Who is this guy?

He's the guy who's about to put us a step ahead of Shepherd.

- Hey.

- Hey.

I just talked to Nas...

you're sending a scout team to Trinity Plaza before the meet?

Well, we need to know what we're dealing with before we do anything else.

If Nas's inside man sees any sign of agents, he could get spooked and cancel the drop.

If we don't check it out first, then we could be sending Nas into another trap.

Now, this guy hasn't asked for money before.

Something doesn't feel right.

Maybe he's trying to get out for good and needs the money to run.

We keep taking these risks, Jane, and getting our asses kicked.

I'm sick of it.

We need to start playing smarter.

This is the best lead we've had on Shepherd so far.

What if we lose it?

The Confidential Informant Unit.

They're putting together the cash.

If the plaza checks out, then we send Nas in.

Not before.

Agent Mary Crone?

Here.

What was with that whole going home sick thing?

You were fine at the gym this morning.

Oh, yeah, um...

just don't feel well.

I told you not to have that last scotch.

You handle your hard liquor like a pre-teen.

Oh, what, you worried you're gonna fail?

I know you have a soft spot for those poppy-seed muffins.

Yeah.

Agent Edgar Reade?

You're next.

Stay sharp, team.

- Nobody moves until I do.

- Copy.

- Copy.

- Copy.

Our source probably has a cutout picking up the drop.

So whoever takes that money, stay on them.

I'm here.

You look like a tourist.

- Nice gym bag.

- Thanks.

It was quite expensive.

Meet me on the fifth floor of St.

Joseph's Hospital.

Walk toward the laundry cart around to your left.

Drop the bag in the cart.

Where are you?

I want to meet.

Drop the cash, or the deal's off.

It's in the cart...

now, where is Shepherd's meeting?

Exit the building.

Once you're outside, I'll give you her location.

Hang back.

Wait for the pickup.

Stop!

Stop!

Come on!

- Who told you to drop that bag?

- I don't know.

Some guy paid me a hundred bucks.

Turn around.

All right...

team, that money's been dropped down the laundry chute.

Go!

Move to the basement now.

They'll never reach him in time.

Jane!

I've got eyes on the target!

Basement, heading toward the north exit.

Don't move.

Cade?

Former Sandstorm operative.

- He went rogue.

- And tried to k*ll all of us.

Drop the g*n.

Do it now.

Uhh!

Okay...

We're on the same side.

I doubt that.

I k*lled Oscar.

FBI, keep your hands where I can see 'em.

Cade?

He's been after us ever since he tried to k*ll Jane.

He must've intercepted the call from my source.

Intercept?

I am your source!

So, you should have your results back by end of day.

What is it?

Pot?

Adderall?

No.

Coke?

It was just a couple times.

I was just blowing off some steam.

Blowing off some steam is a few beers.

That's a schedule two narcotic.

It's not that serious.

Not that serious?

You're about to fail an FBI drug test.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Do you wanna say it any louder?

You have to tell Weller.

I'm serious.

Get ahead of this.

Better he hears it from you than from some OPR suit.

He'll lose his damn mind.

No, he knows you've been going through a lot, he will cut you some slack.

- We're a family.

- Oh, please.

That's just what people say.

He's my boss, and it'll be his job to tell his boss.

So, what's the alternative?

It leaves your system in 24 to 48 hours.

When's the last time you used?

- Yesterday morning.

- In the morning?

So, you're still within the window.

Yeah.

_ - They caught Cade.

- How?

Guess we're about to find out.

Let's get changed.

And talk to Weller, please?

Sure, now's the perfect time.

You know anything about me being drug tested today?

No.

Timing seems a little funny.

Agents can't call for random drug tests.

They're random.

All right, hey.

You're wasting valuable time.

I know where Shepherd's gonna be in 90 minutes, not after that.

We'll tell you when we're wasting time.

So...

start at the beginning.

Well, in the beginning, there was nothing, and then the universe started rapidly expanding.

For a guy who's worried about time, you seem to have a lot of it.

- What do you want to know?

- Why you contacted me.

Why you turned against Shepherd.

Because I found out who she really is.

Look, I grew up in a mining town.

Mom d*ed in labor, old man was all I had.

He d*ed on the job.

Faulty mine shaft.

Or a...

what, an "act of God," according to the company lawyers.

I wanted those bastards to pay.

Tried to stage a few pickets, it didn't make much difference.

Joined the Marine Corps, didn't find any answers there.

I was...

broken.

And that's when Shepherd found you.

Yeah, she saw I was hurting.

Saw a bruise she could press on.

She's good at that.

Said she had a better answer.

A way we could bring justice to the people who k*lled my dad and others like them.

I was all in.

I became her loyal soldier.

Until?

Till the night I found out that Shepherd doesn't care about helping people.

Shepherd cares about Shepherd.

Everyone else is dispensable.

You learned about Phase Two.

Yeah.

So, like you were saying before, how many civilians?

A lot...

but if their deaths save this country from tyranny, it's worth it.

That's what Phase Two is about.

Enough, Roman!

Parker's looking for you.

Those details are need-to-know.

- I'm sorry.

- I don't need you to be sorry.

I need you to be smart.

Rooting out corruption is one thing, but I never wanted innocent people to die.

So Roman gave you details about Phase Two.

I just knew it was gonna be deadly.

I tried to get more, but on the high-level details, - Shepherd kept a tight lid.

- I don't buy it.

If you were so angry, why did you stay?

Because I knew I could do more damage on the inside.

That's when I started leaking to you.

Your story doesn't add up.

You didn't want innocents to die, yet you tried to k*ll me and my team.

That was never about you.

That was about taking out Shepherd's Trojan horse.

Stop Jane Doe, end it before it even begins.

No, it was personal.

You went after Jane for revenge against Oscar.

Yeah, it was both, because Oscar k*lled someone I loved.

He k*lled Markos.

You can't trust him.

He was a Marine, like me.

He had no family, like me.

Markos made me whole.

And when Oscar took him away from me...

it was like I lost my family all over again.

Last time I had a run-in with you guys, I went underground.

I've been trying to track Shepherd, and last week, I found her.

But I can't take her army out alone.

- How'd you track her?

- I know their safehouses.

Their contacts.

Even Shepherd has patterns.

That's how I know where she's gonna be today.

Where?

Where's the 500K you guys owe me?

Also, I want a guarantee that I can walk away free after this.

Well, I've got the keys to those cuffs, you're not walking anywhere.

You got no leverage.

I know the location of the most wanted t*rror1st in the world, and my intel's only good for another...

86 minutes.

That's the definition of leverage.

Kurt, stop being so stubborn and talk this out.

There is no way in hell that I'm gonna cut a deal - with that psychopath.

- But this is w*r.

Sometimes we need to align ourselves with people we don't...

He tried to k*ll Jane!

He should be in prison.

Not taking a world tour on the FBI's dime!

Kurt, he's not a psychopath.

He's trying to stop Shepherd, just like we are.

Now, we have to put our personal baggage aside.

Like you did with me.

That was different, Jane.

I remember you telling Zapata you didn't even wanna be in the same room with me.

But we had a common enemy.

This is our best chance to take Shepherd down.

Stop her before she att*cks.

Shepherd uses a fixer to smuggle operatives in and out of the country.

Yeah, Shepherd told me about this guy.

That's who Borden was meeting with yesterday, that's where Shepherd's gonna be today.

Why would she risk going herself?

Seems below her pay grade.

Unless she's the one getting smuggled out.

Why would Shepherd flee before Phase Two's over?

Maybe she doesn't wanna stick around for the aftermath.

Look, whatever the reason, if we don't catch her now, we could lose her forever.

Fixer works out of a copy store in East Rutherford.

- They're meeting at 3:00.

- So we b*at her there, take her down when she arrives.

We don't have much time, let's move.

Thank you, Cade.

Thank me when you get Shepherd.

We've got half an hour until Shepherd gets here.

Beta team, I want you to enter from the rear exit.

- Reade, Tasha, I want you...

- Wait...

is that smoke?

Fire in the building...

everyone move in.

Send in the fire department.

Blood.

We got a body.

He's dead.

Cade sold us out.

You're still working with Shepherd, aren't you?

What's going on?

You sandbagged us!

We got to the meet half an hour early, but somehow Shepherd b*at us there - and k*lled the fixer.

- That's...

That's not possible.

- It is if you tipped them off.

- Why the hell would I do that?

I've risked my life to help you bring her down.

Not to mention I've been in custody all day!

How would I have even gotten word out?

Maybe someone on your team leaked it.

- Excuse me?

- Yeah.

You were surrounded by your band of merry men when I told you about the meet.

Maybe you've got a mole.

My team is ironclad.

Like Borden?

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I just got a crazy migraine coming on.

Excuse me.

Get your own glass house in order before you start throwing stones.

Look, if you knew Borden was the mole, why didn't you tell Nas?

I didn't know until I saw him with Shepherd this week!

I was just a soldier, I was never given every piece of the plan.

Let's go.

It's a dead end.

Wait.

Even if he doesn't know where Shepherd is, he could still be useful.

How the high and mighty have fallen.

Did we know each other?

Yeah, we knew each other.

Were we friends?

Yeah, I thought we were...

till you spent six months trying to track me down and k*ll me.

Almost caught me once.

Missed me by, like, two minutes.

Now look at you.

I don't know whether to choke you or feed you soup...

maybe both.

Roman, do you have any memories of Cade?

Anything from Shepherd's compound?

I don't think so.

Talking about Phase Two?

I'm sorry.

I'm...

I'm trying, I just...

I can't, I'm...

I'm...

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

It was a long sh*t.

Well, your brother in a cage.

Guess you got your way after all.

Okay, I'll get some more a*mo from the armory.

Need a hand?

You're a grown man, you're gonna let your sister tell you who you can be friends with?

Hey...

We are not friends.

Roman...

Can't keep him locked up forever.

Good boy, Roman.

Good boy.

People like Cade are beneath you.

I thought Shepherd didn't believe in rank.

That's not what...

We need to stay together.

Shepherd, you, and me.

There's no room for anyone else.

Understand?

I just got my test results back.

- You?

- Negative.

Must've passed through my system.

Guess I dodged a b*llet.

- What?

- A b*llet?

This was a cannonball.

And no matter what that test says, you still have to deal with this problem.

It was a couple-day bender.

- I'm over it.

- You might be over the dr*gs.

You are not over the reason you used them.

Jones is dead, Freddy's gone.

I can flush the coke.

- Reade...

- I appreciate everything you've done for me.

I really do, you know that.

This was a wake-up call.

- I'll be okay.

- Talk to Weller.

Take some time off.

Get some help.

I don't need help, Tasha.

I mean this in the most loving way possible, either you tell Weller you need some time off, or I will do it for you.

No, you won't.

You're my best friend.

That is exactly why I will do it.

Prison transport's on the way.

You know, I wanna catch Shepherd just as much as you do.

So what now?

You're facing charges for treason and terrorism for your role in Sandstorm.

I mean with Shepherd.

Do you have any other leads?

I'm sorry about your dad.

My uncle was a miner.

He was on the job for 32 years.

I know.

Shepherd talked about you a lot.

What else did she tell you?

- My role in her plans?

- No.

Like I said, those details were strictly need-to-know.

You told Nas to follow the cogs...

is that me?

It's just something I heard Shepherd say once.

- Didn't hear the context.

- It doesn't make sense.

Why does Shepherd care about me so much?

Shepherd doesn't care about you.

Or anyone.

Look at her own children.

She loved them, and she tried to k*ll them.

She's protecting you because you're still useful.

The second you're not...

things tend to get real simple.

Oh, my God.

Think of the asset she can be, the intel she can provide.

I...

I have this piercing headache, and I can't seem to think straight.

Shepherd's always one step ahead of us.

So when are we gonna get a break?

Not now...

not now!

- Hey.

- Hey.

Uh, this is kind of a weird question, but are you my supervisor?

Yeah.

I guess I am, why?

Well, this requisition form, uh, it asks for my supervisor's signature.

It's for Roman.

Mattress, pillows, blankets, books, reading lamp.

Yeah, look, I just...

I can't stand the idea that he's so unsettled.

I know that feeling.

It's the same one that I had when you first got here.

- What's up?

- Hey.

_ I've been running a diagnostic on my server.

- _ - Long story short, I have a root corruption issue in my I.O.

subsystem.

_ The problem goes all the way down to the drivers and controllers.

_ _ Uh...

we have to deal with it before it corrupts the entire FBI server.

_ I think I can fix it, I just...

I just...

I need a few hours.

_ Okay, get to work.

- What is this room?

- It's for sensitive computer forensics.

The metal mesh blocks communication signals, so Sandstorm can't hear us.

What do you mean, "Sandstorm can't hear us"?

The migraines I've been having, the time that I passed out, I thought they were all after-effects from the t*rture.

This...

is an x-ray of my mouth.

And this...

this is a radio transmitter.

It's inside your tooth?

When Shepherd tortured me, she clocked me pretty hard in the jaw.

I think she planted a bug while I was unconscious.

I thought that you were scanning for listening devices every day.

This is emitting at such a low frequency and using local radio towers as repeaters.

It's ingenious and basically invisible.

How did the doctors not catch this?

Because they were looking to see if my jaw was fractured.

This looks like a cavity unless you crazy zoom in.

She wanted you to escape that cabin.

That's how Sandstorm's one step ahead of us.

They hear the play calls before we run them.

You should get to the infirmary.

Get that bug out as soon as possible.

Actually...

I was thinking we don't quite take it out just yet.

Sandstorm doesn't know that we've found that bug.

So, we can use that to feed them misinformation.

What are you thinking?

You need to hear this.

I just got back from Roman's cell.

Good idea putting Cade with him.

It's going well?

Yeah, it's helping Roman recover memories.

Nothing concrete yet, just bits and pieces.

Anything about Phase Two?

He's said the phrase a couple of times.

The details will come.

Let's let Roman rest.

Reade, Patterson, get the Millerton safehouse ready for Cade.

- On it.

- You got it.

We'll regroup tomorrow.

Good night.

We need to take out Cade before Roman recovers more memories.

Should we alert Shepherd?

She's on a barge in the middle of the ocean.

We have to handle this ourselves.

I'll put a team together.

Is an ankle bracelet really necessary?

Well, Weller says we have to work with you.

That doesn't mean we have to trust you.

All right, Lenkin and Glaser are about 20 minutes out.

I don't understand how these guys are always so damn late.

Everyone sit tight, we'll strike after the FBI does their shift change.

Hold on, there's something wrong with the battery.

g*n!

Officers down!

We need backup!

Cade's on the move.

Go, go!

Let's go, let's go!

Stay in pursuit!

Do not let him get away!

Fall back!

It's a trap, fall back!

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

This is the FBI!

You're surrounded!

Drop your weapons!

Put your hands up!

Keep them where we can see them!

Freeze!

Hands where I can see them!

Now!

You're completely surrounded!

You've got no options!

So drop your weapons!

Weller, I got a clean sh*t.

Do not take that sh*t, Reade.

Everyone, hold your fire.

We need them alive!

What the hell just happened?

I've got Borden, entering the barn on the south end of the property.

Don't engage.

Wait for backup!

There's no way out, Nigel.

Turn yourself in.

You know I'm not gonna do that.

Are you sure about that?

'Cause we've got a nice, eight by ten supermax cell ready for you.

Do you see those propane tanks?!

What do you think "highly flammable" means?

Gah!

Nigel Thornton, you're under arrest.

Let go of the g*n and put your hands in the air.

No.

No, you'll have to k*ll me.

No...

You're gonna spend the rest of your life rotting in a cell, living with what you've done.

It's okay...

It's okay.

Any reasonable person would want to k*ll me.

- Shut up!

- Your rage is completely normal...

Shut up!

You don't get to do that to me anymore!

I'm not gonna k*ll you.

I took an oath...

to my country, to the Bureau, to uphold the law.

I really did care about you, you know.

And I didn't mean...

Yes, you did!

You lied to me.

You betrayed me.

You...

you destroyed me.

You have to know.

I am sorry I did this to you.

No, you don't get to apologize, and you don't get out of this on your terms.

Now put down the g*n.

I didn't want to do this.

Uhh!

Patterson?

Yeah.

Uh, I'm sorry, I'm listening.

Can they still...

No, uh, RF scrambler.

They can't hear us.

Look, I just wanted to tell you I'm sorry.

I know what you're going through.

When I k*lled Oscar, I thought I'd feel some...

overwhelming sense of relief.

But I just felt betrayed and angry and...

somehow more unsafe.

If that makes any sense.

Actually...

I'm fine.

Are you sure?

Because what just happened was pretty traumatic and...

not just today, but...

all of it.

Yeah, I...

I don't...

I feel...

nothing.

I feel nothing.

Okay.

If you ever want to talk...

I'm gonna go up to the infirmary.

Get this tooth pulled.

I'll be honest, I didn't think you were gonna come through on your promise.

I'll be honest, I wasn't sure if I was going to, either.

But you held up your end.

So...

where will you go?

Anywhere but here.

You don't have to.

You could stay and fight.

Shepherd is still out there with an army behind her, determined to strike...

we need all the help we can get.

Well, when you put it that way, it sounds so appealing.

You and I both want the same thing, Cade.

To stop Shepherd from destroying our country.

The same country that tried to cover up my father's death?

What, you think I was doing this for America?

I only defected because Shepherd became what she was fighting against.

Well, then stay for revenge.

For what she did to you, what she did to Markos.

You don't get it.

Shepherd, her army, her plans, they can't be stopped.

I thought you said you didn't know any details of Phase Two.

I don't.

I know Shepherd.

And when Phase Two begins, I wanna be far, far away.

Trust me.

When it goes down, you will, too.

He's not the man I thought he was.

I guess that's why they say you should never meet your heroes.

Cade was all we have left.

Now he's gone.

Battling Shepherd is like trying to grab a fistful of water.

All right, Nas, look at it this way.

Two of her key lieutenants are on our side now.

And the other one's dead, and it looks like she's preparing to flee the country.

For the first time, we've got her on the ropes.

She's desperate.

That's what I'm afraid of.

First, I'm starting with a local anesthetic.

I don't need it, I'm allergic.

- You don't know what's in it.

- What's in it?

- Lidocaine and epinephrine.

- I'm allergic.

This is an intensely painful procedure.

We could find another anesthetic.

Just get this thing out of me.

Just wanted to say good night.

You didn't have to do all this.

Yeah, I did.

Thank you.

_ - Everything okay?

- Yeah.

Yeah, it's just a work thing.

You should probably get to it.

Good night.

I like you...

a lot.

And I think you kind of just caught me off-guard last night.

Maybe we should come up with a list of off-limit topics and safe topics...

Or this.

This is good, too.

- Hey.

- Hi.

We need to talk about Reade.

Okay.

Come in.

Ohh!

Uhh!
