[ Indistinct conversations in distance ]

Cooper talked to the Attorney General this morning.

Officially, your Immunity Agreement never existed.

They won't let me see Marvin Gerard.

I'm sure there are other lawyers.

I'm being denied my counsel of choice.

A public defender's been assigned for the arraignment. [ Scoffs ]

Did you hear what I said?

Cooper's been ordered not to inform the court

about the Task Force.

They're going to prosecute you.

Of course they are.

They're political animals.

In the short run,

justice always loses to politics.

Aren't you worried? You've been indicted

for at least half a dozen capital offenses.

I'm confident I'll prevail.

I want to talk about the news.

The Marshals have been watching all morning.

Yeah, you've been the top story on every channel.

I'm not talking about me.

There was a story about

bodies found in a Virginia warehouse.

I saw that. Some kind of underground medical experiment?

What if I told you I knew who conducted that experiment?

His name is Dr. Spalding Stark,

and he's the next name on the Blacklist.

You're facing the death penalty, and you're giving us a case?

Rigidity. Bradykinesis.

Yes.

I'm certain our treatment can help.

Dr. Stark presents as as renegade,

a biohacker,

devoutly dedicated to enhancing human life

by hacking our genetics.

What do you mean he "presents" that way?

He approached a company of mine about a year ago,

asked for help acquiring

some advanced gene-editing equipment.

I must say, he was...

very convincing.

[ Shakily ] It's just so expensive.

I know. I'm sorry.

But we're doing this on our own,

without the R&D budget

of a big pharmaceutical powerhouse.

Some of our most revolutionary scientific achievements

come from minds outside the mainstream.

I helped him because I thought

he was quite possibly a visionary.

And now? And now there are five dead bodies in a warehouse

suggesting otherwise.

Now I fear Stark may be the worst kind of charlatan,

the kind who preys on the weakest among us

for his own financial gain.

Ames: My -- My daughter's pregnant.

I want to see my grandchild.
