Mr. Rice, I'm Matt Garza,
FBI Counterintelligence.

You've already met my colleague, yes?

Yeah, but I didn't get his name.

You work as a code clerk
at the Embassy... is that right?

You know it is.

Never been in a CIA safe house before.

Thought it would be nicer.

A little cavalier for
a guy accused of treason.

Well, what's the expression?

- Laugh to keep from crying?
- Okay.

We have evidence that you've been
selling secrets to the Russians.

No, you don't.

'Cause I haven't.

Mr. Rice, I appreciate
the fact that you think

that you can outsmart us right now,
that you are up for this moment,

but you are an amateur.

We're professionals who break
guys like you for a living.

And if you think
the Russians have your back,

you are hopelessly naive,

because you are a liability to them now.

But if you tell us everything you know

about their intelligence network

you might be able to breathe
a little free air again

[RINGTONE PLAYS]

Hey, boss.

Simone, listen, there's no time.
I'm in Washington, D.C.

I'm about to get arrested, and
I need to tell you two things.

Pomona Eddie and A Fish Called Raven.

You got it? You trust
no one but the team, okay?

[SIRENS WAILING]

Let me see your hands, Matt.

Miranda, you got this all wrong.

How many times have
you heard a suspect say that?

[SIGHS]

Okay, it sounded weird coming
out of my mouth, but it is the truth.

I hope so. Because you're
under arrest for espionage.

- BRENDON: I don't understand.
- SIMONE: I don't either.

All I know is that Garza
called me at the cr*ck of black

and said, "Pomona Eddie
and A Fish Called Raven."

What does that even mean?

- And why did he call you?
- Seriously.

Uh, because I'm his favorite?

Ah, that is not true.

Can we focus on the mystery at hand?

I mean, does anyone have
any idea what this is about?

Okay, Matt said Pomona Eddie,

which is a nickname for Edwin Gomez.

He was the subject
of a fraud investigation

and insisted that he was being framed.

And it turned out he was.

Okay, so Garza's telling us
he's being framed, too.

But what about the second part?

A Fish Called Raven?

It's an episode of "That's So Raven."

I-I auditioned
for that show a few times.

But why would he be talking
about a Disney show?

And what crime could Matt
possibly be framed for?

You know, he did work
counterintelligence

for a decade before he
came out to Los Angeles.

And there was always rumors that
he was connected to some op

that went epically wrong.

Yeah, but if they were only rumors,
then the Bureau buried it deep.

So are we thinking that case
has come back around?

[CELLPHONE RINGS]

Elena. What did you find?

ELENA: It's DEFCON here.

Some kind of counterintelligence
emergency,

but everyone's too scared to talk to me.

What was Matt doing in D.C.?

I don't know.
I had no idea he was going.

Air support said he called them

Touched down at five in the morning.

Chiles has an office full of VIPs.

So if you can just loop me in,
I can figure out who it is.

Ah. [CHUCKLES]

It was worth a sh*t.

What do you want to know?

Start at the beginning.
Tell me about George Rice.

George Rice.

Rice was the Embassy
code clerk in Panama.

He had been in country
for a year before we even

started suspecting
that he was up to no good.

- Who's we?
- The FBI, the DIA, the CIA.

They were the ones who had HUMINT

that someone on our side
had been compromised.

So... I flew down to Panama.

Hey, I'm Matt Garza.

And it's nice to meet you, too.

Don't take it personally.

Link's annoyed we have to go
through this whole due process thing.

If Link had his way,

he'd just snatch
our targets off the street.

- Alan Brady.
- Oh.

in supposedly allied countries go,

it could be worse.

Why is this coming up now?

You tell me, Matt.

Some ghosts never stop haunting you.

You need to listen to me, Simone.
We both want to help Garza,

but we've gotta be smart about it.

We can bend the rules, but we
can't break them. And we cannot lie.

That is the biggest sin in the Bureau

to getting fired... or worse.

I was thinking, your shoe game

Stop.

Simone, what Garza is accused of
carries a death sentence.

We know he called you
from D.C. this morning,

which makes you a potential conspirator.

If you don't cooperate fully,
you're going to prison.

Hey, no need for threats.

We are on the same team here.

Go Feds! I mean... Ask me anything.

Did Garza give you an order
when he called you?

I need exact details.

No, not an order, but definitely clues.

The first one was "Pomona Eddie."

- Safe words?
- Code words.

Go look up his fraud case
with Edwin Gomez.

There's gonna be a clue there
that Garza's being framed.

And second, he said
"A Fish Called Raven."

- What does that mean?
- I'm not sure,

but I'm guessing it has something to do

with Garza working
counterintelligence in Atlanta.

That's like espionage central.

So there's probably some tie in
to the whole Raven thing.

But y-you got his file right there.

Check it out.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Maybe it has something
to do with Camilla Nava?

- Clever.
- I learned that one from Garza.

- All right, who is she?
- No.

I'm the one asking the questions.

What was Garza doing in D.C.?

I [SCOFFS] honestly don't know.

M-My part in Garza's story
started when he called me this morning.

And why did he call you?
You're just a trainee.

I could clown and say
it's 'cause I'm cute,

but I honestly don't know.

What aren't you telling me?

Ma'am, I'm telling you everything.

If Garza says he was framed,
he was framed.

And you should do everything
you can to try to help him out.

The only thing I should do is
investigate this case with impartiality.

And how are you gonna do that

- That's not what happened.

Then how do you explain what we
found in the trunk of that car?

LAURA: It's really bad.

Atlas found out that Garza
was busted in D.C.

grabbing go-bags full of
$ million in cash

and several forged passports.

That's a lot of money to
sacrifice for a frame job. Right?

It's a steal when the
alternative is a f*ring squad.

Well, whatever is going on
is connected to Camilla Nava.

She was the LEGAT in Panama
when Garza worked down there.

- No.

- And that's, like, a first.
- Damn.

Garza's being framed
for a case five years ago

that resulted in this woman's death.

We need to figure out
what happened on that op.

And decipher what he meant by
the "That's So Raven" reference.

Wait. What did he say exactly?

He said "A Fish Called Raven."

You know what it means?

Well, in eighth grade,
I had a terrible flu,

and Uncle Matt took the week off
to stay home with me.

We binged every episode
of "That's So Raven."

And in my favorite episode of all time,

Eddie heroically
gives up the ball to Gino

to sh**t the winning basket.

Tío used to always tell me
when and worked as a team,

there's nothing they couldn't do.

Garza already told us not to
trust anyone outside the team.

It's gotta mean something else.

- - - .

That has to be the combo to the
hidden compartment in his desk.

I bet Garza kept his own records.

All we need to do is
sneak into Garza's office,

access his secret drawer in his desk...

All without being seen
by the security specialists

who are guarding it.

Is that all?

Carter and Simone
got Garza's Panama file.

It's worse than we thought.

LAURA: Garza was a part of a task force

investigating a mole
in the State Department...

George Rice.

They were questioning him
in a CIA safe house

when Russian Special Ops
stormed in, captured Rice,

and k*lled the LEGAT, Camilla Nava.

No wonder everyone buried this so deep.

Well, clearly, someone
on our side's working with Rice

and leaked the safe house location.

Yeah, and the Bureau
thinks that someone was Garza.

Which is all horrifying,
but we need actionable Intel

if you're gonna prove Garza's innocence.

Well, how about this?

Garza's notes show that he spent
the last five years

investigating Adam Link,

the CIA Case Officer overseeing
the spy hunt in Panama.

Yeah, that makes things ten times worse.
The Agency's impenetrable.

Well, Link doesn't work
for the Agency anymore.

Langley bounced him
shortly after the mission.

He's since gone private,
and his client list

is a who's who
of international scumbags.

- Any hard evidence?
- Circumstantial.

But Garza got a tip a few weeks ago

from a source in the State Department
that Link got his hands

on some stolen confidential documents.

Why hasn't he been arrested?

I guess Garza felt
he needed an ironclad case.

M-Maybe Link found out
he was closing in on them,

decided he would be the fall guy?

Yeah, and Link would have the resources

and the tradecraft to pull it off.

So he's gotta be the mystery man
on the sixth floor then, right?

Driving the final nail
into Garza's coffin?

You know, if Link's upstairs,
now would be a pretty good time

to search his house,
prove he's the real traitor.

- Hey, boss.

It's so good to hear your voice.
Look, the team is all here.

Thank you all,
but I don't have much time.

So what did you find?

George Rice is alive and in FBI custody

and given a statement
that you're the Russian mole.

Well, then he's working
with Link to frame me.

No, he's not.

My bad, sir. Mr. Link is here,
and he is not the mole.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

He wants to get to the bottom of this
just as much as you do.

Oh, they'll have plenty of time to talk

SIMONE: Ma'am, this is Simone Clark.

If you're investigating Garza,

then you've taken a look at all of us.

You know exactly who we are.

So ask yourself...
What's more believable?

That Garza found four agents

willing to throw away their careers

and betray everything they
believed in to go the dark side?

Or that Garza's innocent,

and we love this man so much

we're willing to risk our jobs
and our freedom to prove it?

Come on, now.

♪♪

- This better be good.
- It is.

Five years ago,
someone tipped off the Russians

about us interrogating George Rice.

And because of that, Rice was taken
and Camilla Nava was k*lled.

Now, every agency connected
tried to bury that screw-up.

But I never stopped trying to
find out who tipped them off.

And I was convinced that
it was Adam Link from the CIA.

But I was wrong.

Which only leaves one viable suspect...

Alan Brady.

Brady's about to be nominated
for Deputy Secretary of Defense.

And you're telling me you
think he's a Russian mole?

Yes. We think he was
secretly working with Rice

and directed the Russians
to the safe house.

That's... crazy
and a political nightmare

and still doesn't answer
the basic question. Why now?

Well, the answer to
that question, Tracy,

is sitting in an interrogation
room on the sixth floor.

[DOOR OPENS]

Is everything finalized?

Long time no see, George.

T-This man's a dangerous criminal.

See, we went down that road...

led us right back to you.

Our last interrogation was interrupted
by the arrival of your comrades.

But there is no one
who's here to save you now.

Clemency deal is DOA.

It only comes back to life
if you come clean.

So...

why did you really
show up today, George?

[SIGHS]

Do you know how cold it is
in Arkhangelsk?

Huh? How lonely?

You don't speak the language.
You can't travel, socialize.

The Russians promised me heaven.

- Okay? And they gave me hell.
- Yeah.

And then you see a guy who did
the exact same thing as you,

except he's climbing the ranks
to become number two

at the Defense Department, right?

- And you've got leverage over him.
- Damn straight.

Look, I-I-I leaked a few secrets,

but Brady had been feeding the Russians

classified material for a decade,

ever since they honey-potted him
into becoming an asset.

So I reached out, okay?

I-I reminded him of what I knew.

He figured out a way

to secretly bring me back
to the States with a plan...

I offer the government an active mole,

I get to live a new life in WITSEC.

If you framed me.

You were the obvious choice.

Brady knew about the affair
you were having,

and that you hadn't disclosed it.

He came up with all that cash
to plant in the trunk,

manufactured all the other
evidence against you.

All right, you've got a choice.

Face your treason charges...

or work with us.
