Harold Cooper.

FRIEDENBERG: Harold.
Russ Friedenberg.
We need to talk.

Congressman.
Has something happened?

Things are much worse
than we realized.

Is this about Rakitin?

No names.
They could be listening.

Who could be listening?

He's not real, Harold,
we're being played.

They've got us
chasing our tails,

trying to find
some damn hacker,
but it's a ruse.

Slow down.
It's not safe to do
this on the phone.

We need to meet.
I'll come to your office.

No. No.

Two hours.

I'll text you
an address.

(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

My daughter
will be home
within the hour.

As we agreed,
she won't be harmed.

You won't get away
with this.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Perhaps not.

The outcome is uncertain.

Sadly, you won't
get to see
how it ends.

(ELECTRICITY CRACKLES)
(GROANS)

Be thankful

that you died
of natural causes.

Things can get messy when
we need to send a message.

(GROANS)

Edward said we should be
on the ground
in a few minutes.

Good. I just heard
from our friend.

We won't be
needing the car.

He'll meet us
at the hangar.

Quick pep talk
and we'll be heading home.

We flew 5,000 miles
for a conversation

you could've had
on the phone.

He's nervous.
You know how he thinks.

Harold's getting
closer to Rakitin.

I'm sure
all he wants

is for me to
look him in the eye

and tell him
I have a plan.

Do you?

(CHUCKLES)
To make Harold
back off?

No, not really.

Raymond, we have to
do something.

If Cooper won't stop,

the only move is to
take Rakitin out of play.

Harold has him
under surveillance.

Okay. It's just guesswork
at this point,

a hunch that the man
he's following is Rakitin.

If Rakitin
suddenly disappeared,

Harold's suspicions
would be (CHUCKLING)
confirmed.

Besides, Rakitin
is one of our most
productive assets.

We need to
keep him working.

Even if it puts Cooper
in jeopardy?

Our friend
is a reasonable man.

He's careful.

He's already threatened
Cooper's life.

You know it's only
a matter of time.

He won't kill him.
Not without my consent.

Mmm. You're spinning
too many plates.

Yes.

If we're lucky,
the curtain'll close

before anyone sees them
come crashing down.

ALLISON: Dad?

RAKITIN:
I'm on schedule.

EASTERN FRIEND:
Good. So am I.

I'm going to see
Reddington now.

(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

Ah! There you are.

Would you care for
a coffee, or a scotch?

We need to talk.

Please.

(SIGHS)

You're concerned
about Harold Cooper.

That's why you
called me here.

So I can look you in the eye
and assure you that

things are under control.

I don't need
your assurance.

Things are under control
because I control them.

What are you getting at?

I never liked you
working with the FBI,

but at least when we started,
you knew what they were,

means to our
mutual end.

You've come
to care about them

in a way that is detrimental
to our objective.

I told you
I would handle it.

But you didn't.

Rakitin cannot
be arrested.

He must not
be interrogated.

You have a deal
with the FBI.

Rakitin does not.

He's exposed.

You think he'll talk?

Don't you?

He doesn't know
you work
with these people.

All he sees is the FBI
getting closer

and you refusing to act.

That's why you insisted
I come to Moscow.

You wanted me
out of the way.

Out of position.

Rakitin doesn't
just work for us.

He does projects.

Dozens of highly
sensitive projects
for the SVR.

If he talks,
they're all blown.

Hello?

(HORN HONKS)

REDDINGTON:
Call it off.

Call it off.

It's too late.

There's nothing
anyone can do
for him now.

(CAR DOOR OPENS)

Director Cooper?

(CAR DOOR CLOSES)

Who are you?
Where's the Congressman?

Close.

Leave the car here,
and I'll take you
to him.

You better tell me
what the hell
is going on.

Leave the car.
He sent me to meet you.

Come on, man!

Move it!

(ALL GRUNTING)

Come on!
Let's go!

(SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)

(GRUNTS)

(DOOR OPENS)

(STRAINING)

(DOOR CLOSES)

Put him down.

I want to talk
to him first.

(CHAIR SCRAPES)

(GRUNTS)

(RAKITIN CHUCKLES)

Do you want to know
how I found you?

Uh, I found you.

I'm an Assistant Director
of the FBI.

The Bureau's been looking
for Rakitin for some time.

Looking.

With nothing
to show for it.

And then, suddenly,
you appear out of nowhere.

DEMBE: They have
orders to kill him.

Raymond, he may
already be dead.

(SIGHS)
(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

We have to call Ressler,
warn the Task Force.

I told Harold
he was in danger.

Stubborn son of a bitch
couldn't let go.

Call Rakitin.

(CELLPHONE DIALING)

(LINE RINGS)

(CELLPHONE BUZZING)

Sorry, not a good time.

You do not have
my authorization,

which means whatever pain
you inflict on Director Cooper

will be revisited
upon you tenfold.
Are we clear?

I don't need
your authorization.

Our Eastern friend
gave me the green light.

I just left our friend.

I told him Cooper
was under control.

Now, you listen
to me...
(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

COOPER: Why should I
tell you anything?

You're gonna
kill me anyway.

(LAUGHS) Second time
I've heard that today.

The Congressman asked me
the same question.

Friedenberg?
Mmm.

You used him
to lure me out.

Did you hurt him?

Please.

He hardly felt a thing.

And by helping
set a trap for you,

he bought himself
a long life
for his daughter.

Now I'll make you
the same generous offer.

If you talk,
when we're done here,

I won't go and visit Charlene.

Or your son.

Rakitin can't get arrested.
He knows too much.

We can take care of it
after we know
Cooper is safe.

If you kill me,
the Task Force I lead
will investigate.

They'll know it was you.

Mmm. (CLICKS TONGUE) No.

No, they may suspect,

but they won't have proof.

See, that's why
we're here.

To stop you
before you can
make your case.

And your death
won't look like a murder.

You've been depressed,
haven't you?

(SIGHS) Sadly,
it's all too common

among men who work
in law enforcement.

You wrote a note

before taking
your own life.

See, that's where
the carbon monoxide

comes into the scene.

You left
your car running

in a closed garage.
(SIGHS)

About an hour
from now,

you will be
found dead,

your lungs filled
with fumes.

(CELLPHONE BUZZING)

(SIGHS)

(CELLPHONE BEEPS)
Yes?

If you're gonna kill him,
at least squeeze him first.

Oh, honey, I knew
you'd come around.

He runs a secret
Task Force.

The Bureau doesn't even
acknowledge it exists.

I want to know everything
they're working on.

Be sure
you get details.

Consider it done.

(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

Did you get that?

(BEEPING, KEYS CLACKING)

We got it.
They're at a warehouse
on Fullerton.

Go. Now.

Or he won't be alive
when you get there.

(MACHINE WHIRRING)
(GROANING)

(COUGHS, GASPING)

Okay, now,
let's try this...
(COUGHING)

...one more time.

Who told you about
the stolen files,

the ones I placed
on the Volgograd servers?

Nobody.

(WHEEZING)

(MACHINE WHIRRING)
(COUGHING, GROANING)

I want a name!

(MUFFLED COUGHING)

I fed you a suspect.

(COUGHING)
I gave you every reason

to believe
Rakitin was dead,

and yet, you persisted.

Why?

Because we're the FBI.
(PANTING)

(COUGHING)

Oh.

Finish it.

You know
where to take him.

Make sure that the police
find the note in the garage.

(MACHINERY WHIRRING)

(GASPS)

(DOOR BURSTS OPEN)

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)
(GUNFIRE)

Cooper!
MAN: Hey, clear!

Hey. Cooper!

(GASPS HOARSELY)

(PANTING)
(PANTING, COUGHING)

(ELEVATOR DOORS OPEN)

ARAM: Mr. Cooper.

Mr. Cooper.
Thank God
you're all right.

I heard
what happened.

Put him in
box one.

Call Cynthia Panabaker.
Tell her I need her here
right away.

Uh, sir, you really
should let us
get you a medic.

Sir.

(CELLPHONE RINGING)

(CELLPHONE BEEPS)
Harold.
Thank goodness.

You knew nothing
about this?

Of course not.
I'm the one who helped
the Task Force find you.

If you think
that changes things,
you're wrong.

We have Rakitin.
I'm not standing down.

If he implicates you...

You'll follow the evidence.
Of course.
I have no doubt you will.

We can worry about
that another time.

(CELLPHONE LINE BEEPS)
Ah.

That's me.
I need to take this.

Deep breaths, Harold.

I'm glad you're alive.

(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

They have Rakitin
in custody!

Couldn't be avoided.
Well, it could've been,

if you'd listened to me
in the first place.

He's one of our
top operatives,

and you just
hand-delivered him to
the American government.

I can see
I've made a mistake
with you, old friend.

We've been on
the same side so long,

you've forgotten
who you're talking to.

You're the one
forgetting.

If he talks,
if he exposes me,

exposes what he's done
for the SVR,

the full weight
of this agency

will come down on you
like a thunderbolt.

That won't happen.

Because here's what
I'm going to do.

I'm going to fix it,
and then, when it's done,

you and I are
gonna have a chat.

(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

We can't break him out.

He's under guard
at the Post Office.

Raymond,
it's... impossible.

(CELLPHONE BEEPS, SPEED-DIALS)

(LINE RINGS)

(CELLPHONE BUZZING)

(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

Why are you calling
this number?

Just listen.
Elizabeth was
crystal clear.

You were only to reach out
in a life-or-death emergency.

If you're tracing
this call, don't bother.
I'm not.

The signal's untraceable,
and I'm losing this phone
in 30 seconds.

Skip, stop talking.
I need to speak with Keen.
Tell her to call me.

Or get me a number
where I can call her.

Why? What's happened?

The situation here
has changed.

If things go well,
we may be getting close
to the end.

The end of what?

Reddington.

We may be able to prove
that she was right all along.

I'm talking about
bringing her in,

on her own terms.

MRS. PANABAKER:
My God, Harold!

I can't imagine.
If you need time,

whatever I can do
to make things easier,
you...

I appreciate
your concern,

but I have a feeling
when you hear
why it happened,

sympathy may not be
the first emotion
that comes to mind.

Oh.

It's not my first rodeo,
partner.

You've been
hiding something.

I've known for a while.

Something big.

The real reason Agent Keen
went out on her own.

She saw Reddington
kill her mother.

That's reason enough.

But that's
half the story.

And to tell it,
we have to go back
over 30 years,

to the fall
of the Soviet Union.

Around that time,
a file was stolen
from Soviet intelligence.

A blackmail file consisting
of 13 packets of data.

Damaging intel
on rival governments,

secrets held by some of
the world's most powerful
people and corporations.

Who stole it?

An unidentified
Russian operative.

Thirteen packets.

So, after the theft,

the Russians began
calling him N-13.

The stolen file

is the Sikorsky Archive.

(SIGHS) I'm gonna need
a scratch pad.

That's where
Neville Townsend
comes in.

He was one of the powerful
people named in the Archive.

As a result,
his family was killed.

And he put a bounty
on the head of the woman

he thought
was responsible.

Katarina Rostova.

Exactly.

Agent Keen's mother
ran for 30 years,

all the while insisting
that she was framed.

Set up by the real N-13.

Not Reddington.

Please don't say
Reddington.

That's what
Agent Keen believes.

Her mother found
some kind of proof,

but Reddington killed her
before she could release it.

Keen believes
he's a Russian spy,

a plant sent to infiltrate
our intelligence agencies

and to execute
some kind of endgame.

And you believe her?

I didn't at first, but...

(SIGHS)

Now I think she may be right.

The man
we arrested today,

his name
is Andrew Patterson,

but the Russians
call him Rakitin.

He's feeding intel to N-13.

Clearly, he works with
or for Reddington.

Let me get this straight.

You're saying that our
confidential informant,

the man we officially
gave blanket immunity,

is actually a Russian
sleeper agent?

Quite possibly.

(CELLPHONE BUZZES)

Keen?
I can give you
a number.

Leave a message,
and Elizabeth will
hear the recording.

I need to talk to her.

That point
was conveyed.

She gave me
clear instructions.

She didn't trust me?

She does. I don't.

I told her to
ignore you completely.

Now, do you want
the number or not?

Shoot.
(PEN CLICKS)

In a way,
you were right
to try to kill me.

I wouldn't have stopped
until I knew the truth

and you were sitting
in that very chair.

But Friedenberg...

He was a politician.

(FOLDER THUMPS)
Not an agent.

Killing him
was unnecessary.

RAKITIN: How did
your people find us?

That's two murders.
The Congressman
and the suspect...

How did you put it?
You "fed" to us
as a misdirect.

I'm sitting here, I'm...
I'm doing the math,

and I just can't
make sense of it.

Add to that
the attempted murder
of a federal agent,

at least a dozen intrusions
into government servers,

the theft of
confidential
intelligence.

And then, of course,
there's the treason.

I know that it wasn't
one of my people,

because only two of them
knew of our location,

and your agents
killed them.

How long have you been
spying for the Russians?

Doesn't matter.
We'll find out.

As we speak,
agents are taking apart
your home and office,

scrubbing every device,
document, and drive.

I should've
just shot you.

And you know
the best part?

You were right.

Our case
wasn't there yet.

By coming after me,
you've (LAUGHING) made it

so much easier,
Mr. Patterson.

REDDINGTON: (ON TAPE)
He runs a secret Task Force.

The Bureau doesn't even
acknowledge it exists.

I want to know everything
they're working on.

Be sure you get details.

So, it's true.

Keen was right.
Reddington is N-13.

How is this possible?

Mr. Reddington knew
how to contact Rakitin.

He has been playing us
this whole time,

for the Russians.
I just... (SIGHS)

I don't understand it.

You think this means
Keen can come in
from the cold?

I don't know.
She tried to kill
Mr. Reddington.

She got the Freelancer out
and had him target a plane

full of innocent
passengers.

Yeah, but she
warned us about it
in time to save them.

But what if we didn't?

I don't know.

Maybe there's a way.
I just... (SIGHS)

One thing is for sure.

If Rakitin talks and
confirms that Mr. Reddington

is on some sort of
Russian mission...

Say good-bye
to his immunity deal.

You think
that could happen?

At this point,
I don't think anyone can
stop it from happening.

(CELLPHONE RINGING)

(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

You're calling me?

Agent Park.
You seem surprised.

I thought
we were colleagues.

(SIGHS)
What do you want?
Payback.

That favor you owe me?

It's time to collect.

I can't help you.

Oh, yes, you can.

And you will.

We need to meet.

Dembe will send you
an address.

Leave now.
We don't have
much time.

(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

(CELLPHONE DIALING)

(LINE RINGS)

FEMALE VOICE:
Record at the tone.

(BEEPS)
Hey, Keen. It's me.

Look, I know you don't want
to talk to me in person.

Maybe 'cause you think
I'm angry, but I'm not.

I mean, no, I don't understand
all the choices you've made.

I mean,
Townsend's a killer.

The man put a bounty
on your mother's head,
and now he's your partner?

Where does it stop?

It has to stop.

We have Rakitin,
thanks to you

and that flash drive
you sent Cooper.

If Reddington's really N-13,

we have a good chance
of proving it.

And if we can,

maybe you can come home.

It's all I care about, Liz.

I don't know, maybe you
can't be an agent again,

but at least you can
get your life back.

You and Agnes can be together.

The point is...

I'm here,
and I'm still on your side.

We got to talk,
figure out how to end this.

I'm gonna be at Bentham Park
at midnight.

Meet me there.

And, Keen,

you can trust me.

(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

REDDINGTON: Ah!
So, you're outside Coatti's?

PARK: Yeah,
after a 40-minute
drive to get here.

Are you inside?
What are we doing here?

Oh, dear. I'm sorry.

I'm afraid I've given you
the false impression

we were going on this
field trip together.

We're not.

I'll be guiding you
through this remotely.

Now, I'm sure I don't
need to remind you

of our little arrangement.

You asked me
to make a man disappear.

I know what happened.

That's no small thing,
am I right?

Erasing a human being
from existence.

In your case,
someone capable
of ending your career

and sending you
to prison.

At the time,
if you remember,

I warned you that repayment
might be unpleasant.

Yeah, fine.

But what does that have to do
with you sending me here
to this garage?

Agent Park. Please.

Just watch
and wait for it.

Wait for what?
What's wrong with you?

What are you
talking about?

Wait for it.

Wait.

PARK: (ECHOING)
You sent men
to Jenna's apartment?

(GRUNTING)

Dieterle.
Yahtzee! Yes!

Mr. Mason Dieterle
in the flesh.

Ladies and gentlemen,
we have a winner,

Agent Alina Park!

I thought you
took care of him.

And that's exactly
what I did.

You didn't ask me
to kill him.

You asked me
to make him go away.

We gave him
a new identity,

relocated him
outside the city.

He resisted at first,

but we can be very persuasive.
How does he look?

Why would you do this?

For this very moment.

It occurred to me that
you might need some
additional motivation.

So, do as you're told,

and Mr. Dieterle
remains a ghost.

Refuse, and hallelujah!
He's born again.

Are you surprised?

What if I take my chances?

It's my word against his.

That occurred to me,
as well.

If you'd be so kind
as to check the video...
(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

...in your inbox.

DIETERLE:
Let's do that.

(SIGHS)

(CHUCKLES)
Oh, my gosh.
This is fun.

What the hell
do you want me to do?
Rakitin's being guarded.

I can't get you in
to see him, and there's
no way to break him out.

Right? It's a puzzle.

Now, go back to the office.

When my plan's in place,
we'll reconvene,

and I promise you,
it'll be even more
exciting.

(CELLPHONE BEEPS, THUMPS)

Oh, my stars and garters,
I so love surprises.

(CELLPHONE BEEPS,
CLICKS SHUT)
(CHUCKLES)

(CROAKS)

(DOOR OPENS)

Not yet. Out.

Class doesn't begin
for another seven minutes.

My God,
it really is you!

I'm sorry,
the front office
is down the hall.

(LAUGHS)

Cvetko said
you were teaching.

High school biology
and chemistry?

That's admirable for
a man of your talents.

Cvetko? I'm...
I'm not sure who
you've mistaken me for.

My name
is Geoffrey Hill.

Have we met?

Just once.
Don't feel badly.

It was years ago,

but it's why I know
(WHISPERS) your name
is Felix Klopp.

Ah! Hold on.

This might help.

Reddington.
(LAUGHS)

Dembe,
we're in the presence
of greatness.

Uh, the gas in the air ducts
at that military prison
in Ankara?

Felix.
DEMBE: Ah, yes.

You built the device

that sucked all of the oxygen
out of the dining car
on the Kowloon Express.

Yes!
(CHUCKLES)
Who was that for?

No, no, no!
Don't tell us!

It had to be MI6.

All the gadgets
you've built for them
over the years.

That was a long time ago.

I'm retired.

Well, not entirely.

Cvetko mentioned that
you still occasionally do

side jobs
when the money's right.

(INHALES DEEPLY)
I see.

And what exactly is it
that you think I could do?

What you always do,
the impossible.

There's a man
being interrogated
in a highly secure room.

Heavily guarded,
no way in or out.

I want to remove him.

A break-out?

Well, if that's what
you think is best.

I'm open to ideas,
but the most important thing

is that the man
cannot be given

any chance to cooperate.

I may have an idea,
but it's dangerous.

Risky.

It would take
some time to create,

and I'm giving a quiz on
covalent bonds in 10 minutes.

No, Felix, you're not.

School's out for today.

Now, tell me
about your idea.

COOPER:
Amazing how life goes.

A few hours ago,
you almost killed me,

and now you're the one
in mortal danger.

Am I?

I wouldn't want
to be you.

With the work
you've done?

How do you think
Russian intelligence feels

about you being
in FBI custody?

Even if you don't talk,
you know they won't
risk it.

Their best choice
is to eliminate you
as a variable.

Ah. I see.

This is the part
where you claim
you can protect me.

And let me guess,
all I need to do
to earn your mercy

is tell you
everything I know.

No. I don't care about
everything you know.

Right now,
all I care about is N-13.

I want to know
the endgame.

What was N-13
sent to do?

(SIGHS)

You asked me
how my people found us.

The answer is,
they didn't.

Reddington gave you up.

Harold.

That's a lie.

You don't know anything
about the man
you're protecting.

(DEVICE BEEPS)
REDDINGTON: (ON TAPE)
He runs a secret Task Force.

The Bureau doesn't even
acknowledge it exists.

I want to know everything
they're working on.
Don't do it.

Be sure you get details.

RAKITIN: (ON TAPE)
Consider it done.

REDDINGTON:
Did you get that?
(BEEPING)

ARAM: We got it.
They're at a warehouse
on Fullerton.

REDDINGTON: Go. Now.
Or he won't be alive
when you get there.

(DOOR OPENS)
Why would he do that?

We need to talk.

Stop protecting him.
He doesn't care about you.
You're a pawn to be sacrifi...

We need to talk now!

You want to tell me
what you were doing?

I had to do something.

You just came
pretty damn close
to exposing the fact

that Reddington
is our informant.

I don't care.
He has answers
that we need.

You don't care?

I'm sorry, who am I
talking to now?

Harold Cooper
or Elizabeth Keen?

COOPER: Did you see
the look on his face?
It worked, Cynthia.

He's thrown.
He wants to talk.

There is a difference
between talking
and telling the truth.

The Cooper I know
understands that.

Meaning what? You think
Reddington's innocent?
He's not N-13?

I don't know.
But now, whatever
Rakitin tells us,

we're gonna have to
wonder if it's true

or just a way to get
revenge on Reddington.

We are missing
something.

If Reddington
really is N-13,
why did he save you?

Why hand us one of his
chief collaborators?

You do.
You think I'm wrong.

Maybe.

And you know
my best argument?

Rakitin's still sitting
in that room.

You think
if he knew the truth,

Reddington would
ever allow that?

Don't you think
he'd be trying to stop it?

(DOOR OPENS)
(SIGHS SOFTLY)

(DOOR CREAKS)

Has he said anything?

Not yet. If he doesn't
talk soon, the plan is
to transport him

to a black site
by morning.

Then we need
to act quickly.

How? I can't
break him out.

I'm not asking
you to.

Then, what?
I can't hurt him.

I won't.

Tell Cooper
about Dieterle.
I don't care.

Agent Park, really?

What do you imagine
I'd have you do?

Shoot the man
in cold blood?

All you have to do
is pass along
these instructions.

Instructions
to do what?

You can't break him out.

The less you know,
the better.

Do not read it.

Don't even open it.

I'm very serious.

The instructions it contains
are for Rakitin's eyes only.

He's locked down.
How do I get it to him?

Well, that part's
up to you.

And after?
What happens then?

You burn the evidence.

As I said,
the less you know,
the better.

Whatever happens,

it's my doing,
not yours.

Now, wish us luck.

We're all
going to need it.

(DOOR CLOSES)

You asked to see me?

I've decided to make
a statement.

Is that so?

And what, may I ask,
changed your mind?

I know why
Reddington gave me up.

To punish me.

For my (INHALES DEEPLY)
disobedience.

You see, I asked
for his permission

to kill you.

But he refused.

He said he'd
handle it himself.

And when he didn't,

I took matters
into my own hands.

To him, that deserves
a death sentence.

Doesn't matter
what our history is.

I defied him,
so I'm expendable.

I see.
(SIGHS)

And now, he expects me
to stay quiet,

to take my punishment
like a man,

go to prison for my sins.

Well, if that's
what he expects,
then he is, uh...

He's about to find out
just how wrong he is.

We can try
to protect you.

No, we're...
we're well past that.

He destroyed my life

when he made
that phone call.

And now it's my turn
to inflict a little damage,

which includes
my very educated guess

that he is your informant.

(LAUGHS, SNIFFS)

That's how
they found us.

That little recording
that you played,

the one your boss
didn't want me to hear,

you got that
from Reddington,
didn't you?

Because he works for you.

I'll make
the arrangements.

(DOOR OPENS, CLOSES)

Harold,
this should work.

You make sure he signs it
before we start.

What is it?
Insurance.

I want it in writing
that he wasn't
promised anything

to get him to do this.

If he recants later,
it may help.

I'll take it to him.

(CELLPHONE BEEPS, SPEED-DIALS)

(LINE RINGS)

FEMALE VOICE:
Record at the tone.

(BEEPS)
Hey, Keen, it's me.

It's happening.
(SIGHS)

Rakitin's agreed to talk.

Cooper's about to take
his statement.

Look, this could be
all over soon.

I'll be there tonight.
Bentham Park.

(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

It's a document
you need to sign
before we start.

It just confirms
your statement
is voluntary.

(SIGHS)

Listen to me.
Look down.

Underneath the document
is something else,

something I was asked
to give you.

Instructions.
From Reddington.

Reddington sent you?

(WHISPERS)
Keep your voice down.
We don't have much time.

He said it would
give you instructions.

Instructions?
What kind of
instructions?

I don't know.
I haven't read it.

He was very clear,
whatever it says
is for your eyes only.

When you're done,
put it back underneath.

(LAUGHS)

What the hell is this?

Some kind of joke?

Huh?
(PAPER CRINKLES)

Okay, well,
I don't know what...

What kind of games
you're playing,

but, uh, the next time
you see Reddington,

you can tell him
to go to hell.

(CLIPBOARD SLIDES)

I'm ready to talk.

(DOOR OPENS, CLOSES)

DEMBE:
Raymond. Relax.

It will work.

(CLICKS TONGUE)

I never wanted this.

For any of them.

Cooper, Park, Rakitin.

Oh, boy. (SIGHS)

You saved Harold's life.

It was the right choice.

Let's do this.
Bring him in.

(HANDCUFFS CLICKING)

My name is Harold Cooper,
Assistant Director of the FBI.

We're here with
Mr. Andrew Patterson,

also known by
the code name "Rakitin."

Sir, you've been
advised
of your rights

and have decided to make
a voluntary statement?

(CLEARS THROAT)
That's correct.

Tell us
who you work for.

(SIGHS)
Officially?

The Office of Intelligence
and Analysis,

a division
of Homeland Security.

Whoever delivers the envelope
must not touch the letter.

Understood? Under any
circumstances. Any.

And once
he's handled it?

It won't take long
at all.

Unofficially,
you've been working

as a covert operative
for Russian intelligence?

(CLEARS THROAT)
For several years, yes.

Specifically, the SVR,
among other groups.

Mr. Patterson, I'm gonna
cut right to the chase.

(COUGHS)
You're familiar
with the fugitive

Raymond Red...
(COUGHING, GAGGING)

The agent is structurally
similar to the VX compound,

but more potent.

(GASPING) I can't...
I can't breathe.

(CHOKING)
Oh, my God.

Get a medic in here.
Agent Ressler!
Don't touch him.

(GAGGING, RETCHING)

Odorless. Evaporates
much like water.

The longer he touches
the letter,

the faster the toxin
will have its effect.

ARAM: Code Black!
Code Black!

This is Agent Mojtabai
in the War Room.

Get a med team
in here now!

(GAGGING)

Fine.
Reddington's
in the building.

He's on his way
up here.
He's here?

Harold (SIGHS)
I think I know,

but what exactly
are we saying
just happened?

Cynthia...
I mean,
he killed that man.

Is that what
we're saying?

Reddington somehow
got to him

and murdered our witness
right in front of us?

What's the alternative?
Natural causes?
The man was poisoned.

How?
He's been in custody
and isolated for hours.

He was fine
a few minutes ago!

I don't know.

Maybe the medical examiner
can help us understand
how it happened.

Oh, I'll tell you this.
If he did it,
that smug son of a bitch

has a set of
Rocky Mountain oysters
on him.

And to walk in here
right after?

Would he do that?

Agent Park.
Going down or up?

I killed him.
Rakitin's dead.

You didn't kill anyone.

I told you,
whatever happened
was my doing, not yours.

I'm an accessory
to murder!

Interesting.
I don't recall you being
so concerned about the idea

when you thought
Mr. Dieterle
was being killed.

They'll investigate.
We won't get away
with it.

Nonsense. Can they
prove you gave Rakitin
the letter?

No.
And the letter now?

I have it.

Then I suggest
you light a match and
destroy it immediately.

Carefully, of course.

I have to tell Cooper.

Now, that would
be ironic.

You got into this mess
because you didn't want
to end your career

and go to prison.

What do you think
will happen
if you confess now?

(BAG ZIPPING)

(DOOR THUMPS OPEN)

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

(DOOR OPENS)

Cynthia.

I didn't know
you were here.

I came by to see how
Harold's interrogation
was progressing,

but it appears
(INHALES DEEPLY)

things have taken
a most surprising turn.

Did you kill him?

Harold.

I'm asking you.

Are you certain
he was murdered?

I once knew
a team of Chechens.

All seven
had a ricin bean

embedded in
a hollowed-out
rear molar.

It's just a game
to you, isn't it?

A game?

I warned you, Harold.

I explicitly told you
that pursuing this
could prove to be deadly.

And I told you
I'm not afraid
of your threats.

But you should
be afraid.

I saved you today.

But what about tomorrow?

Do you really think
the people who
Rakitin worked for

will just allow you
to expose them?

So he was killed.

I'm not your enemy.

And whether
you believe it or not,

you are both safer today
because you didn't hear
what Rakitin had to say.

MRS. PANABAKER:
We're launching
an investigation.

If it proves
you were involved,
you have my word,

we will invalidate
your immunity deal,

and you will go
to prison.

REDDINGTON:
So, you think
someone got to him?

Could be.

Though, if you're right,
it would have to have been
one of your own people.

(BREATHES DEEPLY)
If I were you,
I'd run with

the "ricin bean
in the molar" theory.

Speaking of running,
I have an appointment.

Please, excuse me.

To the artist
formerly known
as Rakitin.

(CLINKING)

He was an artist,
Raymond.

The best we've ever
used, by far.
(SIGHS)

He won't be easy
to replace.

No, I know.

Truth is, I never
trusted or liked him.

He was just a spy.

Spineless.

Nameless.

Completely lacking in
conviction and character.

Thankfully,
there are others.

EASTERN FRIEND:
(SPEAKING RUSSIAN)

(IN ENGLISH)
This is how
you handle it?

By killing
our most valuable...

(GRUNTS)

(GROANS SOFTLY)

You hit me.
Let me be perfectly
clear, old friend.

I don't give a damn
who you work for.

The next time
you threaten me

with the full weight
of the SVR,

I'll take that
thunderbolt
you mentioned

and crack it
so far up your ass,

it'll be the last thing
you see or hear.

Clear enough?

Nod if you understand.

Good.
Now, understand this.

Rakitin's death
was your doing.

I hold you responsible

for what is,
by any account,

a catastrophic setback
for all of us.

You think
I'm too close
to Harold Cooper?

Too emotionally involved
with the Task Force?

You better look
deep inside yourself

and find a way
to accept it,

because that, old friend,
is way beyond your purview.

This is my endgame.

And you will not
interfere with it again.

(SIGHS)

We had a dozen
ongoing projects
with him.

All in progress.

All of them lost.

Whose fault
is that?

(SIGHING)

You've been with me
a long time.

And I value our friendship
above most things.

But we're nearing
the end now.

And nothing is more
important than that.

Than what?

(OTHER LIVES' "RITUAL" PLAYS)

The end.

(SONG CONTINUES PLAYING)

(CELLPHONE BEEPS, SPEED-DIALS)

** In all my youth...

FEMALE VOICE:
Record at the tone.

(BEEPS)
Hey, Keen, it's me.

Uh, I'm here,
but you're not.

** I've been waiting
for something like this...

I don't even know
if you're getting
these messages.

I don't know who
I'm talking to, or...

(SIGHS) Anyway...

** Creatures of ritual...

...it's probably best
you didn't show.

The thing is,
I don't have good news.

Look, Rakitin's dead.

I don't know how,
but someone got to him.
Probably Reddington.

** Creatures of ritual...

The ME,
we don't have word
from his office, but...

It seems like
he was poisoned.

Cooper's losing his mind.

I mean, we all are, but...

** We've been waiting...

(SIGHS) I really thought
it was over this time.

** For something like this...

We miss you.
We just want you back.

** Creatures of ritual...
(CELLPHONE BEEPS)

RESSLER: (ON VOICEMAIL)
Cooper's losing his mind.
I mean, we all are, but...

(SIGHS) I really thought
it was over this time.

** Creatures of ritual... **

We miss you.
We just want you back.
