Person of Interest Episode Guide
At the morgue, Reese tells Carter that their best bet is to wait until sunrise so to reduce the
chance that HR will shoot them out in the open. Alonzo, listening, tells them that it won’t do any
good and Reese injects him with a sedative to keep him quiet. They then stuff the deputy mayor
in a morgue drawer for the time being.
When Fusco refuses to tell them the safe deposit box location, Simmons threatens to go after
his son. Fusco gives them the address of a bank in Hoboken, and Simmons figures that he can
get a warrant and get inside despite the hour. He then tells Miller to get Lee as insurance and
orders Petersen to watch Fusco. Meanwhile, Brady has contacted the Bloods, who doubled back
and found the broken lock on the morgue door. Brady figures that Reese and Carter have gone
to ground and Simmons tells him to bring their men in to finish it once and for all.
Reese improvises weapons out of the tools in the morgue and shows Carter the scar on his
chest that a Hezbollah surgeon left there.
Carter shows him a scar from a landmine detonation, but says that the worst scar she ever
got was the C-section from when she almost lost her son Taylor. She asks Reese what his closest
near-death experience was, and he takes out a bullet. Reese explains that there was a time when
he was going to say goodbye to his old life, but he lost himself. Realizing that Reese kept the
bullet for himself, Carter asked him what changed his mind and Reese says that she found him.
Kissing her gently, Reese tells her that she changed him.
Finch calls and tells them to leave because the police have arrived. Reese confirms that the
HR cops have already surrounded the morgue, and he and Carter prepare to fight.
Brady and his men enter the building and tell the guard, Ed, that they received a report about
vandals. When he says that he hasn’t seen anything, Brady handcuffs him and shuts down the
power to the building.
Finch brings Root an early breakfast and warns that he may be gone for some time... or may
never come back. She tells him that it’s still not too late to save Reese if Finch releases her, but
he still refuses. Sighing, Root says that she hopes that Finch will trust her some day and offers
her condolences on his loss.
Simmons arrives at the Hoboken bank and confirms that Carter’s safe deposit box isn’t there.
He calls Petersen and tells him to kill Fusco and Lee. Fusco offers to talk, but Simmons figures
that they’ll find the right bank eventually.
HR works its way systematically through the morgue. Reese tells Carter to check the supply
closet for any chemicals they can use.
However, when she comes back she discovers that Reese has used the air vent to bypass the
barricaded door and go out in the hallway.
Carter calls to him through the door, begging him not to throw away his life. Reese tells her
that when he draws off the cops, she should make a run for the Federal Building with Alonzo.
Before he leaves, Reese tells Carter to make sure that Alonzo gets what’s coming to him.
Petersen calls Miller, who has Lee, and Miller prepares to shoot Lee. Fusco begs them to let
his son go, but Petersen has Miller put Lee on the phone so that Fusco can hear him die. The
detective tells his son that he’s there with him, and tells him to close his eyes. A gunshot rings
out over the phone and Fusco breaks into tears. However, Sam then gets on the phone and tells
him that Lee is safe and she killed Miller. Fusco thanks her for choosing his son to save, and
tells her that she did good. Sam apologizes as Petersen shuts off the cellphone. Petersen then
prepares to shoot Fusco, who says that they’re both alike and that the best they can hope for
is someone holding their hand when they die. The crooked detective points out that they broke
Fusco’s fingers, and Fusco says that’s why it was easy for him to break his thumb as well. He
slips his hands out of the handcuffs and then uses them to strangle Peterson until the man dies,
twitching to death on the floor.
Finch arrives at the morgue and claims that Simmons sent him. He gets close enough to the
man on watch to taser him unconscious, and then works to restore the power.
Reese opens fire on the HR cops, taking all of them out but Brady. Brady manages to wing him
and Reese is forced out onto the streets. As Brady goes after him, Finch gets the power working,
setting off the alarms. Reese tells Finch to get Carter to safety, and Finch announces over the
loudspeaker that Carter can leave the building. Smiling in satisfaction, Carter gets Alonzo out of
the morgue drawer and drags him off.
As Reese runs down the street, two NYPD officers come over and arrest him for brandishing
a firearm. Brady is forced to retreat while Finch tells Reese that he found two honest cops and
