and suggests that he might take her away for a weekend to let the heat die down. Maxine thanks
him for the thought but says that she finds out about people in power and makes sure that
everyone knows about what they don’t want them to know.
They both get calls and go off to take them. Carter warns Reese that Maxine’s story isn’t true
and that now that the story is out, all of the criminals and cartels that HR screwed are going to
go after Zambrano. Meanwhile, Glen calls Maxine and tells her the same thing. She realizes that
Zambrano is in danger and asks Reese to give her a ride to the man’s company. When they get
there, Maxine tells Reese to wait in the car and goes in to find Zambrano. Some criminals arrive
outside and move in, and Reese drops two of them when they go after Maxine. However, Maxine
finds Zambrano, dead, and Reese realizes he didn’t get there in time.
Carter brings Maxine and Reese in and take their statements. Maxine blames herself and asks
for a minute, and Carter talks to Reese privately. He admits that it’s complicated and tells Carter
that the Toreros Cartel were the ones who killed Zombrano. Reese says that he’s not leaving
Maxine alone and Carter agrees to let him take the reporter out. However, Donnelly approaches
Maxine and takes her into custody for interrogation. He wants the name of the man who tipped
her off and Maxine admits that she doesn’t know who it was. She points out the name on the call
list and Donnelly tells Maxine that Zambrano was their witness against the HR boss. Zambrano’s
father had a ledger of HR’s payroll and he found it after his father was killed. Zambrano called
the FBI and Donnelly argued with him to turn over the ledger. The mobster’s son was afraid
people would think he was a crook but agreed to turn over the ledger once the immunity deal
came through. Donnelly warns Maxine that he’ll lock her up if she prints anything about what
he’s telling her. They confirm that the call was made from a cell phone and Donnelly tells Maxine
that the real boss of HR played her.
Fusco watches the exchange through the one-way mirror and turns to see Simmons watching
him.
The next day, Reese and Finch realize that Maxine was the perpetuator of the violence crime.
The HR boss managed to kill Zambrano and destroy Maxine in one stroke. Finch starts looking
for the ledger electronically while Reese calls Fusco and tells him to find out from Simmons
who the head of HR is. Fusco says that Simmons won’t tell him. However, Reese tells him to try
anyway and Fusco agrees.
Maxine goes into work and her co-workers stare at her. Quinn calls her and warns her that
they’re going to throw her under the bus to save Griffin’s career. She asks Glen what she can do
and he says that she won’t be writing anything until they go over her situation with Legal. Finch
monitors her phone and discovers that she’s calling the disposable cell phone number. She gets
an answering machine and promises to put the boss on the front page in handcuffs. Reese and
Finch realize that she’s going for the HR ledger and Reese calls and suggests that they go out for
a drink.
That night, Reese takes Maxine to a bar and he offers to help. She asks him to go through
Zambrano’s records but Reese suggests that they leave it to the authorities. Maxine admits that
her arrogance cost a good man his life and now she can’t do anything to fix it. However, she
wants to catch the man involved and leaves. Reese goes after her and tells her that he knows to
do things that can’t be taken back, and tells her that she doesn’t want her to think she’s alone.
He sees a laser site on her chest and shoves her behind a car as gunmen open fire. Once he gets
her inside his car, he returns fire and then drives off for his place.
When Finch realizes that Reese is heading for his place, he realizes that he has to get Bear
there since he claimed that Reese was a dog lover for the dating site. He gets Bear there but is
forced to hide in the closet. When Reese and Maxine come in, Bear goes to the door but Reese
says its treats are in there. Reese suggests that they go to the police but Maxine points out that
they don’t who they can trust. She’s impressed with his expensive apartment and Reese says
that he won’t leave her side until it’s over. Maxine says that he’s a good man and Reese says that
he’ll sleep on the couch. He directs her to the bathroom and Finch comes out and warns Reese
that the longer she stays, the more questions Maxine will have. Reese ushers him out and Finch
promises that he’ll check the bar’s security system.
The next morning, Finch calls Reese and confirms that the shooters, Craig Bogle and Leonard
Pitt, were ex-FBI agents who took early retirement. They figure that used their contacts to find
out about the ledger and tell HR’s boss. Finch tells Reese that he’s sent the same information to
Maxine, and she comes out and asks for a meeting with Zoe.
