What's happening to me?
It's called Stevens-Johnson syndrome,
a rare but serious reaction to the medicine you've been taking.
You said you could help.
We've done everything we can, Mr. Blake.
Our goal now is to make you as comfortable as possible.
Can you describe what you're feeling?
What do you mean, "everything we can"?
I'm sorry you haven't responded to our treatment.
I hope it's some small consolation
that what we've learned from treating you
will help others in your situation.
He's the second one this week.
He knew the odds.
The morgue is filled to capacity.
Please...
Please, god. Please...
Use the bone saw.
Mr. kirk, you're being charged
under title 18, chapter 113b of the United States code,
acts of terrorism transcending national boundaries.
Whomsoever kills, maims, or creates a substantial risk of harm
to any agent of the united states government,
is guilty of violating this statute.
That's a fancy way of saying, "you killed a lot of good men."
Anything you want to say?
Then we're done here.
You know the truth, masha.
If this is what it took for you to call me father,
it was worth it.
Have you ever been spear fishing? You should go spear fishing.
I love spear fishing.
On the ambergris caye, there is a reef...
If there's a reason you felt this story couldn't wait,
I'd love to hear it. But quickly, if possible.
I have a blacklister for you. They call him the coroner.
I just got my baby back, my husband, my family.
This can wait.
Lionfish.
Lionfish?
An aggressive, invasive species.
Threatens the local habitat, leaves destruction in its wake.
Sound like anyone we know?
Whatever destruction kirk has caused is over.
I took aim and released.
In the water, it sounded like a dull thud,
but the spear passed clear through.
I'd already bagged six of them with glancing blows, tail shots.
So, I knew this last predator was mine,
and the destruction it had caused was over.
And then,
it wriggled free.
Kirk isn't wriggling anywhere.
But he will, lizzy.
With the help of someone on the inside.
We caught the thrushes, arrested his mole.
Who else is there?
You.
You think I'm gonna help kirk escape?
I think you're compassionate,
and you believe he is your father.
When push comes to shove,
your impulse will be to save him.
Fine. I'll bite. Tell me more.
According to reddington,
the coroner runs a witness protection program for criminals.
He provides them with new lives,
fully documented from cradle to present.
Then he takes the identities of the dead,
and somehow manages to keep them alive on paper.
Elementary school report cards. Marriage licences.
Confirmation certificates.
He then takes these meticulously crafted identities,
and sells them to the world's most dangerous criminals.
And how does this relate to kirk?
Reddington believes kirk is going to escape,
and that when he does,
the coroner will help him vanish.
So, did reddington tell you how kirk was going to escape?
Of course not. Because he's not going to.
And this coroner, how does reddington even know this guy exists?
Well, apparently, he lost a job to the coroner.
Her name was giza barerra.
I know that name.
Barerra's father was a Mexican drug trafficker
who forced her to marry a dangerous rival
when she was 14 years old.
Twenty years later, she got her revenge
by murdering her father and his rival,
uniting their cartels under her leadership.
The other cartels felt threatened.
So, six years later,
60,000 people were dead, and giza barerra disappeared...
Thanks to an identity sold to her by the coroner.
Now, barerra was raised in a convent.
Apparently, her father also was a devout catholic
who insisted his child learn Latin.
Latin? That's your lead?
People are creatures of habit. They gravitate to what they know.
Barerra may have gotten a new life, a new identity,
but she's still the same person with the same skill-set,
and we figured she'd use one of them to make a living.
So, I wrote an algorithm to search for schools that still require Latin,
and cross-indexed it with a web search of tutoring services
that teach Latin, and, well...
This woman works at a private school in Brooklyn heights.
Think it could be her?
Let's ask her. Ressler, navabi, check it out.
If it is barerra, I want to know how she made contact with this coroner.
It's okay to talk with him.
He said he won't talk to anyone without a lawyer present.
Not about the case, no.
I'm sure he would talk about you, your past.
You're his daughter, Elizabeth. It's a lot to process.
The only way to start is by talking with him.
I feel like you deserve some clarity on what's about to happen.
They're transferring you to fort mcnair,
where you will be held until your initial hearing.
You'll have access to your lawyers...
Did you mean what you said when you called me "father"?
Yes.
And yet you picked reddington.
I picked myself.
You said you were trying to protect Agnes from reddington,
and that's my decision to make and tom's.
But no one else's. Not even my father's.
You remind me so much of her.
Your mother.
She was an amazing woman.
I've wanted to tell you about her. I thought we had more time.
Whatever stories you have...
Not stories. Truths.
About her and about reddington.
I'm not helping you escape.
I know.
You just don't see it.
Alexander?
That you helped already.
More than you could ever...
Kirk?
Enter the code! Open the door, right now!
He's not breathing.
Get a medic in here! Now!
We'll be taking the whole wing.
Everyone in and out will get a full body scan.
This guy's that important? He is to us.
Your prisoner is in the end stages of aplastic anemia.
What does that mean?
An average person has between 150,000 to 400,000 platelets
per microliter of blood.
Mr. kirk's is under 10,000.
I'd expect to see intracranial bleeding within hours.
Treatment?
He's been receiving transfusions for many years.
If I give him another at this point,
he's liable to suffer autoimmune shock.
And if you don't?
He bleeds to death.
Once we get the test results back,
I'll formulate a treatment plan.
But my guess is all this firepower is wasted.
How's that?
Unless he has a blood relative
willing to donate stem cells his body won't reject,
your prisoner will be dead by morning.
Kirk is being held under guard in a U.S. army hospital in Bethesda.
I want a full workup
of all medical requirements for his transport,
and a list of potential destinations, both overt and covert.
Get me a breakdown on the legalities of extradition.
And find me an airfield in close proximity that will take his jet,
preferably one on the flight paths
of international flights out of Dulles.
Don't we need to get him out of the hospital first?
Leave that to me.
Renata has been tutoring our students in Latin for a decade.
She's an inspiration.
Somehow makes a dead language come alive.
Oh! You wanted to see me?
Yes. These are agents ressler and navabi from the FBI.
Could we see some identification, please?
Yes, of course. Is something wrong?
So, how long have you been in the country for?
Eleven years.
I don't understand what's going on.
That's a nice tattoo.
Where I come from, a tattoo is a dream made flesh.
A rose is a sign of beauty.
Except when laid on a grave.
You're not supposed to have guns in school.
Santa muerte.
I hear the Mexican cartels pray to her for protection.
Can I have my shirt back now?
Your DNA is going to come back ID'ing you as giza barerra.
I don't know who that is.
Well, I bet you know who Alejandro Medina is.
See, we know you killed his father when you took over his cartel.
I wonder what kind of a tattoo he's gonna give you
when he finds out that you're alive.
I don't know who that is.
You were 14 years old when your father married
you to a man 40 years older than you.
I can't imagine what that was like.
Fathers are supposed to protect their daughters.
Yours didn't.
But we can,
if you tell us how to contact the coroner.
Every week, there's a standing ad in the Lexington herald,
asking for volunteers for a blood drive.
Tell them you're a phlebotomist with cardinal hill,
and you'll get a text with the time and place for the next drive.
They'll take prints, DNA swabs,
anything needed to verify you're not a cop.
Before he turns you into someone new,
the coroner likes to know who you've been.
Wait. Wait, wait, wait.
Won't your prints and DNA ID you as an agent of the FBI?
No. They'll ID me as an alias the Mossad set up
before I joined the task force.
Hello? Yes, it is.
I understand.
Dinner at Isobel's. Clinch, party of two.
I'm in.
How's Agnes?
She's fine. Screaming.
I know we're supposed to let her cry herself to sleep,
but talk about cruel and unusual.
She missed you tonight. We both did.
I thought you'd be home earlier. I know.
I'm sorry I didn't call.
Kirk collapsed in the post office.
Well, that's good.
His only hope is for a blood relative to donate stem cells.
And you're thinking about it?
I just wanted to talk to you about it.
Liz, what is there to talk about?
He attacked our wedding, kidnapped you,
and threatened to throw our child from a rooftop.
And for that, he will spend the rest of his life in prison.
I'm not talking about freeing him,
I'm talking about saving his life.
Why would you do that?
Because he's my father.
No, he's a stranger.
It's not that simple.
It is that simple. What if we were talking about your father?
What if you suddenly found him? Would you be able to walk away?
Yeah.
I don't believe that for a second.
Well, you should. Because I did.
From my mother. I met her while you were in Cuba.
Wait, wait, wait. You met your mother?
Yeah. Her name is Susan hargrave.
Why didn't you tell me?
I was gonna tell you when things settled down,
but they never did.
How did it happen? What was she like?
You must have a million questions.
I do, and that's my point.
Liz, I have a million questions and I'm letting them go unanswered,
and I think you should, too.
You're telling me you met your mother whom you've never known,
and you were able to just walk away?
Yeah, from someone who abandoned me as a kid
and has nothing to do with who I am or what I've become.
Same as kirk. Your father and my mother, they're part of our past.
But you're my future.
Liz, that's all I'm interested in.
I think it's what you should be interested in, too.
Thank you.
Listen up, boys. This is him.
No wonder they call him the coroner.
Our teams are in place.
Thank you for agreeing to meet.
Would you like me to start by explaining my situation?
Your name is Victoria cronin.
You have a masters in health care
administration from Smith college...
So, Rory says,
"in Boston, a shot of whiskey in a pint of stout
"is an Irish car bomb.
"In belfast, it's breakfast."
Excuse me.
What the hell is he doing here?
You must be the coroner.
Were you followed? Samar, darling. Please.
Save it for Mossad summer theater.
I used her to lure you here.
She doesn't need an identity. I do.
You are Raymond reddington.
And you're on the wrong side of 80, sitting on a donut-pillow.
My sympathies to your significant other.
And if your flag is flying at half mast,
rest assured, i find in the privacy of one's boudoir,
pleasing others is the key to pleasing oneself.
Do you expect me to make you disappear?
I've been disappearing for over 25 years,
I don't need your help to disappear. I need an identity.
Specifically, the one you created for Sonia bloom.
The research scientist.
Fifteen years ago, she arrived in her lab
to find her life's work stolen
and her partner dead of an apparent suicide.
Except it wasn't suicide, and she knew it.
Fearing for her life, she contacted you
and became someone else.
I need to know who.
That's impossible.
My clients expect absolute confidentiality.
Hmm. Few things in life are truly impossible.
Talking an irishman out of vengeance
for his brother's death is one of them.
You see that ruddy-faced fellow in my booth?
Willie adair.
Back home they call him "barking mad Willie."
He has this pack of absolutely voracious wolfhounds.
I don't know who that is.
But you gave the man who killed his brother a new identity.
Perhaps I should call him over
so you can explain your policy on confidentiality.
That won't be necessary.
Mmm.
Sonia bloom.
Adrian Shaw.
Cheers.
What the hell was that all about? Who's Sonia bloom?
Apparently, Adrian Shaw.
You didn't care about the coroner.
No, I didn't.
You used us to find him for you so he could tell you about bloom.
I don't know what the two of you are so indignant about.
I told you about a criminal you had no idea existed,
and now he's in your custody.
The coroner gives you dozens of criminals
you thought were dead or missing.
Take the win, Donald. You could use one.
I don't care who we have to reach out to,
ice, DEA, CIA, NSA, any of them, all of them,
we're gonna find this Sonia bloom
and figure out what reddington wants with her.
Colonel Wright.
I'm afraid it's gonna have to wait.
What happened? Freeway accident.
Multiple trauma victims. More are on their way.
What did you need to discuss?
I'm Alexander kirk's daughter.
Why didn't you say so before?
I wasn't sure i wanted to help.
And now you are?
If I am, what do I need to do?
Harvest stem cells?
It sounds worse than it is.
I certainly hope so.
They put me on dialysis and collect the cells.
And if they get enough, they transfuse them to kirk.
And that would save him?
It could if we're compatible.
You're his daughter.
Apparently, that's no guarantee.
They test for 16 genetic markers,
and that's after they check to see that our blood types are a match.
Reddington said I'd save him.
Tom will never forgive me if I do.
Kirk hurt the two people tom loves.
You can't be surprised if he doesn't want you to help him.
What do you think i should do?
Doesn't matter what I think.
Or reddington or tom for that matter.
None of us can possibly know how it feels to be in your position.
And none of us have to live with the consequences of your decision.
All I will say is this.
Given what he's done,
no one would fault you for walking away.
Maybe not.
But I'm afraid I would.
I found the teacup.
Oh! And the banana.
That's 11. One more.
Don't tell me.
The doctor will see you now.
Raymond.
One second.
The sailboat. Oh! I got...
Show off.
Mr. reddington's a genius. Could be an evil genius, but still.
So you figured out his connection to Sonia bloom?
Yes. Sonia bloom.
Worked on next-gen genome research.
Re-sequencing DNA to help the body fight off disease.
In 2001, she and her partner applied for a patent.
A week later, her partner was murdered
and she went underground.
We already knew that. Yeah.
But you didn't know this.
Her partner was Matthew hadj.
One of the inventors murdered by the lindquist concern.
Reddington only gave us that case just to get to the partner.
And then when he couldn't,
when he found out Sonia bloom had disappeared,
he gave us the coroner to find where she went.
So what is it about her research that connects to kirk?
Okay, Sonia bloom is hiding as Adrian Shaw.
Now, based on what we know about the coroner,
it's safe to assume that almost every personal detail
about her life is false.
The only detail we know to be true is that she's a doctor.
Was then. Is now.
And while I can't connect her past research to kirk,
current ama records indicate that now, as Shaw,
she has a new partner who specializes in...
Wait for it.
Hematology.
So kirk's dying of anemia,
and reddington's suddenly looking for a mysterious blood doctor
who's doing cutting edge research into gene sequencing.
Dr. Shaw may be kirk's last best hope of finding a cure.
Reddington wants kirk dead.
One way of guaranteeing that is to kill the one doctor
capable of keeping him alive.
The partner, what's the new partner's name?
Hmm?
Thank you.
Dr. rayburn. Thank you for seeing me without an appointment.
What seems to be the trouble?
I have a pain right here.
We don't keep drugs in the office.
If I want narcotics, doctor, I'll call the guy with a briefcase like everybody else.
I'm looking for Dr. Adrian Shaw.
Units are rolling to rayburn's clinic now.
Who owns it? Is it incorporated?
Looks like the clinic is owned by an llc based in Delaware.
If the genome research reddington's after is worth killing over,
it's not being done at a clinic.
What else does the llc own?
Checking. Hang on.
A warehouse, a building, somewhere no one would look.
What is it? Did you find something?
Yeah.
It's definitely not somewhere anyone would look.
Mr. fox, might I remind you
of the condition you were in when you arrived.
I'm dying, not poor.
I won't live like this. I'm leaving.
You were dying when you arrived,
but based on the treatment you've received,
you've shown remarkable progress.
I haven't been outside for two weeks.
You signed up for me to save your life,
and that is what I'm doing.
For you and the two dozen former patients
who are leading normal, healthy lives because of this program.
You mean the ones whose skin hasn't melted off?
I know what's happening.
Blake, Zion, kearney, oates.
This trial is a death sentence.
What we are doing here is illegal, not immoral.
When you came aboard, you knew the risks.
If I say I'm leaving, sweetheart, pack my bags.
If you won't honor your commitment to the trial,
how can I rely on your commitment to confidentiality?
I agreed to keep quiet about science, not murder.
There's simply nowhere for you to go.
How are you feeling? Great.
I'm going to die, but I feel great.
What would you do
if you had more money than you could ever spend?
Travel the world with my family.
Twice.
You could get away from him.
Somewhere safe where he couldn't find you.
Sure.
But like my dad always said,
"if wishes were horses, beggars would ride."
My adopted dad. Sam milhoan.
My entire life,
all I ever wanted was to make you safe.
Protect you.
And in the end, the only way I'm able to do that is by dying.
I don't understand. It's yours.
Everything I have.
I'm leaving you my fortune.
Which you'll have plenty of time to spend
because you're not dying.
Not now anyway.
I told your doctor that I decided to be your donor.
They're running the tests now to confirm we're a match.
Why did you decide to help me?
Because you didn't ask.
Your lawyer is here to see you.
If I could have a moment alone with my client.
Of course. For now.
Out but not cured.
Only she can do that.
An FBI agent and a lifesaver.
You must be so proud.
She's agreed to be my donor.
I need a day, maybe two.
And I need you to watch your mouth.
We had everything before her.
And now look at us.
I am not apologizing for disliking her.
The extraction plan is in place.
We move on your signal.
We're told dozens have been injured in this bus accident.
And they've been transported to the Walter Reed facility
for further medical attention.
Excuse me, I'm here to see Elizabeth keen.
She was on the bus?
What bus?
The accident. Is she a patient?
No, no, no. She's visiting a family member.
Alexander kirk. She said he was in a locked ward.
You say her name is Elizabeth keen?
That's right. She's my wife.
Sir, your wife is a patient. She was admitted an hour ago.
Admitted for what?
Don't say it.
What is there to say?
I gave you my opinion, you ignored it.
I didn't ignore it. I just didn't agree.
Okay, what are the risks?
Risks, for me? None.
None? Are you sure?
All I have to do is give blood.
I should have told you sooner. I'm sorry.
Just everything is happening so fast.
I get it. Fine. Help him if you have to.
But promise me you're not gonna hurt yourself in the process.
I promise.
Harbor patrol and customs will meet you on site.
What's the eta?
Red hook harbor master has the ship docking
in 45 minutes.
Is there a manifest?
Yeah, already e-mailed it to you.
Sixteen crew members, and the licensed cargo is medical equipment.
How convenient.
Not just any equipment, thermal cyclers,
centrifuges, incubators.
These are products used in genome research.
Okay, thanks. That was the unit
I dispatched to get Dr. rayburn.
He left the clinic an hour ago.
Accompanied by a large black man and a middle-aged white guy.
In a hat.
We're about to dock. What's the emergency?
Dr. Shaw, or should I call you Dr. bloom?
Either way, I'll skip the pleasantries.
We haven't much time.
Who is this?
I'm here with your colleague, Dr. rayburn,
who can confirm we have a situation.
As we speak, the FBI is raiding his medical clinic.
Sonia, he knows everything.
About the research, the coroner.
I'm like the ghost of Christmas past, in future.
Which is how I know the FBI will board your ship
the moment it docks.
Whoever you are, why should I believe you?
Belief is such a relative concept.
Is there a god?
Are we alone in the universe?
What the hell have they found out there in area 51 anyway?
I prefer to think of your decision as judicious risk assessment.
I have considerable resources to put at your disposal.
I'm here to help you, Dr. Shaw.
If you don't want to go to jail, listen to me carefully.
Firstly, is there a helipad on your ship?
We got your results back.
How'd I do?
We couldn't harvest enough stem cells to justify a transfusion.
So what happens now?
With a compatible donor,
we could do a surgical procedure
to harvest marrow directly from the cavity of your hip bone.
No. A surgical procedure carries risks, right? For Liz?
While it's a minor procedure,
an infection could cause necrosis of the hip
which could impact mobility.
Or a fat embolism that could affect multiple organ systems.
And if those are risks I'm willing to take?
Which you're not. We talked about this.
What risks you are or are not willing to take are irrelevant.
Even if the dialysis had worked,
the hospital won't transfuse your stem cells into Mr. kirk
unless and until we receive confirmation
that you are a genetic match.
You sent my blood out for testing hours ago.
And you know about the bus accident.
You saw the incoming. The system is overwhelmed.
And if he dies before the tests
come back confirming I'm a match?
I understand you feel he has nothing to lose,
but that is not how we make hospital policy.
The tests could come back five minutes late. Two.
You're okay with that? Of course not.
I made it clear your blood work
should be the lab's top priority.
They'll get your results as fast as possible.
And I'll be in touch as soon as they do.
Special agent Donald ressler, samar navabi.
FBI.
Is there a problem?
There won't be if you direct us to Dr. Adrian Shaw.
I don't know who that is.
Maybe a warrant to board your ship will jog your memory.
There's no Adrian Shaw on this ship.
We'll see about that.
He's gonna die because a bus accident delayed some lab work.
And all the answers I'm looking for are going to die with him.
Some answers about who you were.
But none about who you are or who you will be.
Certainly none that affect your happiness,
which is all i care about.
Miss keen. I need you to come with me, please.
Do you have the lab results?
Dr. Wright told me she should have them in a few minutes.
I've been instructed to prep you for surgery
in anticipation of a positive result.
I know I'm breaking my promise.
But I have to do this.
You want to. There's a difference.
Searched the entire ship. No sign of Dr. Shaw.
I told you this isn't a passenger ship.
There is no Dr. Shaw.
I know you're hiding something.
You searched the ship. Delayed my off-load.
I got six tons of cargo signed, sealed and inspected.
So if there's nothing else...
Ressler.
Does this look odd to you?
Arrest him.
Where does this lead?
Yes?
That was the lab. They've got the results.
You okay? Yeah.
What the hell is this place?
I thought you were in surgery.
I was.
You just saved my life.
I tried to.
Well, you weren't a match?
No.
You did what you could.
The test results...
No, just forget about it.
You don't understand...
Yes, we weren't compatible. Not every father and daughter are.
It's not just that we weren't compatible.
The test results showed something else.
I'm not your daughter.
How did the FBI find us?
I don't know. All that matters is reddington was
able to chopper you off the ship.
What does he want? Why are we here?
Agent navabi.
Yes.
We know what you're doing.
I sincerely doubt that.
Dr. Adrian Shaw. You abducted her.
I kept her from you. There's a difference.
Yes. We would've arrested her. You're going to kill her.
You looked absolutely ravishing the other night.
We've seen her research.
What do you do to stay in such incredible shape?
Calisthenics? Or jazzercise?
The gene-sequencing technology she's trying to perfect,
it's called crispr.
It's supposed to teach your DNA to repair itself.
Maybe we should be workout partners.
Adrian Shaw was using human experimentation
to cure people like Alexander kirk.
He either financed her research,
or wanted to use it to cure himself,
so you got to her first.
Adrian Shaw deserves to go to prison for what she's done,
not to be murdered for it.
I'll see you in dance class, samar.
Hello?
He knows everything. I don't know how, but he does.
About you being Sonia bloom
and going on the run after Matthew was murdered.
He found Matthew's killer,
avenged his death after all these years.
Why would he do that?
Dr. Shaw.
Fresh off the boat as it were.
Dr. rayburn, I'm sure someone is sick somewhere
who could use your assistance.
What?
Good-bye.
Please.
You're Raymond reddington.
And you're in my debt,
which can be a complicated place to be.
Shall we?
It doesn't make any sense. I saw the DNA test.
From 30 years ago. Clearly it was flawed.
And the things he knows about me...
He wasn't pretending. He believed he was my father.
So did I.
I didn't want you to do it in the first place.
But I admire you for wanting to.
This whole time reddington was right.
Yeah. But he's wrong about one thing.
Kirk is never getting out of here alive.
All teams ready. We move in five.
What is this?
This was a thriving business
that manufactured counterfeit cigarette tax stamps
until a little over two weeks ago.
There's a hefty profit in tax stamps,
and they're a lovely way to launder money.
A story I can share another time.
Right now I have a pressing matter
which requires your assistance.
Are you sick?
You have no idea.
What are you doing?
Well, i came here for treatment.
Now, since I'm not getting any...
You'd rather go back to the box?
They can make you comfortable here.
That DNA test was altered.
I thought it was a mistake, too.
Mistake? It wasn't a mistake, no.
It was altered by reddington.
I had the lab re-run the test.
It came back the same way.
Yes. To make it look like you're not my daughter.
He knew you'd want to save me.
So he did everything in his power
to prevent that from happening.
But he's not going to prevent it! Do you hear me?
I will not die in here!
You are going to save me, masha!
Save me, masha.
Yes.
Did you manipulate the test?
What are you talking about?
I just showed kirk DNA proof he's not my father,
and he blames you for faking the test.
Get out of the hospital.
Don't change the subject.
The only subject that interests me, Elizabeth, is your safety.
A safety that has been guaranteed thus far
because Alexander kirk believed you to be his daughter.
He now knows you are not.
He's under federal guard.
There are marshals with tactical gear watching every entrance.
What's he gonna do? I'll tell you what he won't do.
He won't die alone in that hospital.
I promise you, the plan is already in motion.
All of kirk's resources will be brought to bear.
Every angle has been calculated.
Every obstacle considered and accounted for.
Men are coming, Elizabeth.
Men who kill every living thing that gets in their way.
Tell Harold, and then you get out of that hospital.
We're in place. On your ready.
