Person of Interest Episode Guide
Reese drives Zoe back to her apartment and says that he didn’t say anything interesting. Zoe
pays him and goes inside, and Finch meets Reese outside. They figure that Zoe is a fixer and
she’s a victim.
Carter is called in to investigate the murder of an elderly ex-mob enforcer, Deluca, who was
stabbed in the chest in his own house, with a dull kitchen knife. It turns out that a victim the
man was accused of killing was Marlene Elias, and she died after she was stabbed in the chest
with a kitchen knife. The box stolen from the evidence lock-up had evidence pertaining to the
case, including the murder weapon.
Reese drives Zoe to meet with a businessman, Samuel Douglas, who is in charge of crisis
management for Virtanen Pharmaceuticals. Douglas wants Zoe to deal with Anthony Talbott, a
blogger who has information about Mark Lawson, Douglas’ boss, who had an affair. Talbott is
blackmailing Lawson for $40,000 with the recording he made of Talbott and his mistress. Lawson
is in line to take over the company when his father, CEO Robert Keller, retires. Zoe promises to
get the recording for them and has Reese drive her away.
Later, Zoe meets with Talbott in the park. He plays the recording and she pays him the
$40,000, but says that she would have asked for $80,000. Reese watches the exchange and
figures that Talbott isn’t the killer. Finch points out that there’s nothing in Zoe’s apartment and
tells Reese that he’ll need to get her talking to find out about her other clients.
At the precinct house, Carter meets with Bernie Sullivan, the retired detective who worked
on the Elias case. She explains that the man she’s after and his men stole the evidence and
the murder weapon. Sullivan says that he had Deluca dead to rights for killing Marlene, a cocktail
waitress, but the DA was bought and dropped the case. Marlene was involved with Gianni
Moretti, a Mafia don. When she demanded that Moretti divorce his wife, Moretti had Deluca kill
her. Sullivan explains that Marlene and Moretti had a kid, and the boy was in the backyard
when Deluca killed her. Gianni never accepted the boy as his son, and the boy went into the
foster system.
Reese drives Zoe and plays jazz music, using it to strike up a conversation. He comments that
she knows how to play people, and Zoe tells him that she fixes people and hates jazz. They pull
up into an alleyway to meet with Douglas and another man is present. Reese suggests that he
take care of it but Zoe tells him to get into the car and goes to see Douglas. She hands over the
flash drive with the recording and Sullivan listens to it. Douglas’ men get out of the car and try
to usher her into the car. Reese comes over and rescues Zoe, and drives away as Douglas fires
at him, shattering the rear windshield. Finch contacts them and Reese tells him what happened,
and Zoe realizes that Reese is working with someone. The programmer sends Reese Talbott’s
address, and Reese tells Zoe that he had information that she was in danger. He says that they
need to find Talbott and Zoe explains that she made a copy. However, she has no idea who the
woman on the tape is.
Reese and Zoe arrive at Talbott’s apartment, but Finch informs Reese that Talbott is dead of
an apparent heart attack. Zoe slips away when Reese isn’t looking. Reese returns to the library
where Finch is working to clean up the recording. He’s confirmed that it is two years ago, and
identified the voice as belonging to Dana Miller, a worker at Virtanen. Finch explains that the
Machine gave him Dana’s number six months ago, but he hadn’t found Reese and couldn’t do
anything to help her. She supposedly died as a brain aneurysm, and Reese figures that Lawson
had her killed to keep her from going public and messing up his inheritance of the company.
Finch says that now that he knows who is responsible, he can stop them from ever giving them
another number. He tells Reese to find Zoe while he goes to a business meeting concerning a
recent investment.
Lawson is in his office for a meeting with a shareholder, and Douglas explains that the man
has bought 8% of Virtanen stock in the last eight hours. He suggests that they bring in Keller
to keep their new shareholder happy. Finch arrives, using the name Partridge, and introduces
himself, explaining that he prefers to remain anonymous. He offers Lawson a watch as a gift and
Lawson takes him on a tour of the facilities. He explains that they’re planning a release of a new
migraine drug, Sycolet, which was just approved by the FAA. Keller arrives and explains that
Lawson is making all the big decisions and he’ll be retiring in a few months. As Lawson goes,
Keller explains that his son-in-law has supervised all research. As Keller leaves, Reese listens in
on the bug he planted in the watch. Douglas tells Lawson that Zoe managed to escape them and
supervised tells him to dispose of her and the driver.
