Blindspot

Look, I don't want to talk to you about this on the phone.

Is it 100% above board? No.

Are we gonna get caught? No, I seriously doubt it.

Look, I'll be in the office in 15 minutes.

Let's talk about it then.

Oh, wait, somebody left their bag in here.

Roman and Shepherd want to see you.

Where am I?

How are you feeling?

Groggy. What happened to me?

I drugged you.

You can't know where we're located.

Ever heard of a blindfold?

Sit down.

What's wrong?

How did you escape?

What?

Cade...

How did you escape?

He kept me in a small cell

with no bed and no window.

But, there was a drain in the floor.

I fashioned some rope and used the grate to make a homemade mace.

He came in to torture me, I made my move.

How often did you see him?

Every day.

He tortured you every day?

Yes.

We got a call from a fixer we use sometimes.

Cade contacted him.

Wanted a fake passport and passage to Venezuela.

Great. Can we...

A month ago.

How did he torture you every day if he was in Venezuela?

You tell them that Cade held you captive

and tortured you, and that you just escaped.

That psychopath locked me in a four-by-four hole

with no light, no clock,

no way of keeping track of time.

I was in and out of consciousness,

so if he left for a few days, I would not have noticed.

His travel arrangements were one-way.

So, he went to one of your known associates

to try to get away from you, and that's not raising a red flag?

Sounds to me like he was trying to throw you off his scent.

Is that why you brought me here?

Because if there's nothing else,

I need to get back before the FBI starts asking where I am.

You're not going back.

We need you to do something first.

If you want to be a part of this kid's life,

I will make sure that there is space for that to happen.

You on for trivia tonight?

Tonight? I can't.

Come on. Who's gonna cover science,

pop culture, nerd stuff.

What about Reade?

We're doomed. Why can't you come?

I just, I have this prior thing.

It's just like a meeting, really.

Like a date?

Would you like to have dinner with me?

No. No, no, no, no.

It's not a date. It's more like a...

a friendly meeting with a friend.

- A friend meeting. - Uh-huh.

Excuse me...

Who told you to take that down?

I'm just doing what it says on the work order.

So, we're just supposed to erase her legacy,

like she never existed?

I can't get a hold of Jane.

Can you track her cell?

Keeps going to voice mail.

Oh, her phone's switched off. Hang on.

I can't access it remotely.

She must have removed her battery.

Or someone else did.

What are you doing?

I'm gonna send some agents to her safe house.

Put the phone down.

- Excuse me? - Put down the phone!

Chances are, she's been picked up by Sandstorm.

That doesn't concern you?

Jane is doing the job that we asked her to do.

It's the paradigm now. We can't sit there

spending resources chasing after her every time she doesn't punch in on time.

I'm talking about sending agents to her safe house.

Yeah, which might be enough to blow her cover with Sandstorm.

Those people are cold-blooded killers.

A fact we all knew getting into this, especially Jane.

She was the one who insisted on removing all of our trackers.

Whether we like it or not,

she's on her own.

There's enough for an army in here.

Exactly.

But today, we just need the basics.

Who's this?

Our op, Jeffrey Kantor.

Mechanical engineer at Bradley Dynamics.

- He's an asset. - He was.

He was supposed to clone a piece of tech for us.

Something we need for phase two.

But, he missed the drop.

Now we're not sure if we can trust him anymore.

What was he supposed to clone?

A microchip.

Wait... I recruited him.

Yeah.

He was in love with you.

That explains why he got cold feet...

'cause I went off the radar.

We tried to replace his handler.

Turns out, there's no replacing you.

You've always been good at getting people to do what you want.

That's why we sent you to Weller.

How'd it go with Freddy last night?

We just couldn't find enough victims to come forward.

Why aren't you testifying?

Fine.

Glad to hear it.

Hope you've been hitting those science textbooks.

Patterson can't make it to trivia tonight.

Yeah, sure.

Should we be waiting on Jane?

- No. - She'll catch up when she gets here.

Okay.

I'm sure you all heard about the bomb that went off

at the Brooklyn Navy Yard this morning.

Four are dead and eleven were injured.

The bomb released thousands of particles of micro-shrapnel.

NYPD found traces of tungsten, nickel, and cobalt.

I read about these.

Dense inert metal explosives.

Also known as DIME bombs,

which is where the tattoo connection comes in.

An olive branch, an oak branch, and a torch.

Where else do we see these three together?

- The U.S. dime. - Precisely.

And the outline is in the shape of Vieques,

a Puerto Rican island the Navy used as a weapons testing site.

Yeah, but the Navy shut down testing in Vieques

when the cancer rate started to skyrocket.

Well, that's the public story.

The Navy still tests off-book weapons there,

including DIME bombs.

Then, the tattoo was probably trying to expose these secret weapons tests.

So, what is one of these DIME bombs doing in the middle of Brooklyn?

Another bomb went off in Midtown.

At least ten dead.

It's a coordinated attack.

This might be just the beginning.

So, what happens when we find Jeffrey?

Suss him out, see if we can still trust him?

Jeffrey is not the only one we're worried about.

You need to prove you're still one of us.

"One of you"?

I helped design this whole plan.

You're different now.

We all feel it.

Those drugs changed you.

Yeah, of course they did.

I mean, wasn't that the point?

To erase my memory?

Yes, so the FBI would trust you, and it worked.

But now that you're back,

we need to be able to trust you again.

If we can't... something needs to change.

So, that's what this is... a test?

Call it what you want.

We need you to kill Jeffrey Kantor.

You can take the bag off now.

I thought she'd be happier to have her daughter back.

Oh, she is.

But, this mission is bigger than any one life.

Yours, mine... Jeffrey's.

Roman, this man is innocent.

You might not realize it yet, but we're at war.

And in war, people die.

I just don't believe our only option is to kill him.

When we were in that orphanage,

the caretakers gave us each a rabbit.

You fed them, cared for them,

grew to love them.

And one day, they ordered us to kill them.

We were just kids.

I couldn't do it.

What did I do?

You snapped its neck quicker than any kid in there.

You can do this.

It's who you are.

The second bomb went off in a much denser area.

The death count is up to 22.

The first bomb was at the Navy yard,

the second was outside a USO office.

Both symbolic military locations.

Payback, for the Navy's testing in Vieques?

I got something.

Two men exited the cab just before the first bomb went off.

The same two guys can be seen at the second location minutes before
