Person of Interest Episode Guide
Afterward, Ingram meets with Finch and complains that he always has to be the public face
of the company. Finch assures him that the number will pan out because the Machine provided
them.
The CIA continues to access CCTVs to find Reese. Meanwhile, a wheelchair-bound Reese
checks into an apartment. The super, Ernie Trask, tells him that he’s there for him. He tries
to make small talk, going on about how he used to be a rich man in Miami, but Reese refuses
to chat. Once Trask leaves, Finch comes in and makes sure that Reese is comfortable. He tells
Reese that Snow is preoccupied with Carter, and Reese asks Finch to keep an eye on Carter.
However, Reese realizes that Finch got the apartment for a reason: the Machine has given them
Trask’s number.
Trask is outside chatting with the guests, including a cook, Lily, while Finch tells Reese that
the super comes from a small town and has been at the apartment for the last 14 years. There
are 241 people in the building, but Finch has hacked Trask’s phone call log and discovered that
he’s visited three pawnshops that sell off-the-book guns.
Snow returns to the truck and meets with his partner, Tyrell. Tyrell notes that Snow told him
to try and wound Reese rather than kill, and confirms that Carter hasn’t contacted anyone.
Once he makes sure that Reese is comfortable, Finch hacks the apartment’s wireless system
and accesses everyone’s webcams. Reese spots Doug Stanley, the building’s security guard, who
is investigating some jewel thefts. The two men find nothing conclusive and Reese says that Finch
will have to do some legwork. Reese goes to the basement while Reese breaks his sink and then
calls Trask.
Once Trask leaves his basement office, Finch breaks in, plants cameras, and searches for a
gun. He doesn’t find one, but he does find bullets.
Trask realizes he has the wrong wrench and goes back downstairs. Reese warns Finch, who
finds photos of Lily. Finch then comes out just as Trask comes down the stairs. The super
realizes that Finch was in his apartment, but Finch gets into the elevator before the super can
stop him. Reese checks on the camera and warns Finch that Trask is shutting down the elevator.
Finch gets out just in time and Reese directs him back to the apartment. However, Finch runs
into Doug as he emerges from a woman’s apartment. Trask calls Doug and gives him Finch’s
description, while Reese checks the cameras of the woman’s apartment and confirms that he’s
the thief. Finch shows him the footage via his iTouch and tells Doug that he’ll erase it if Doug
forgets him. Doug agrees and walks off.
Finch runs to the office, plugs a flash drive into Ingram’s laptop, and tosses coffee on the
computer. Alicia comes in seconds later and apologizes for the interruption, and then introduces
her superior, Deputy Director Denton L. Weeks. Weeks explains that the number Ingram gave him
earlier was the Social Security number of a man named Kurzweil, and it turned out that Kurzweil
was a traitor. When Weeks demands an explanation, Nathan explains that they can’t access
the software and that it watches for threats at all times. Further, if no one sees the Machine’s
programming, no one can violate the Fourth Amendment. Weeks and Alicia are unhappy that
they don’t get anything more than a number, but Ingram insists that is how the Machine works.
When Weeks threatens to cut payment to the company, Alicia informs Weeks that Nathan built
the Machine for $1. Meanwhile, Finch monitors the entire conversation through the Machine and
it tells him that Weeks is a threat.
Lily is in her apartment, complaining that a man is always watching her.
Reese provides Finch with a bump key to get through every door in the apartment. He’s also
brought up info on Lily Thornton, a rising star at a top Manhattan bistro. She’s linked to Rick
Morris, a powerful restaurateur. Lily changes her wifi password every day, making it impossible
for them or Trask to access her computer or camera. Reese tells Finch that he’ll follow her despite
the wheelchair. When Finch points out that it’s a mistake, Reese admits that he’s feeling restless.
He insists on giving Finch a basic self-defense lesson which consists of poking someone in the
eye.
Finch goes to Lily’s apartment and plants a camera in the vent. However, he discovers that
there is already a camera there, streaming to a hidden network. Finch figures that Trask is
responsible and yanks out the camera.
Lionel gets the cell phone log that Carter requested. She grabs it and leaves, well aware that
the CIA is still following her. She walks down the street, goes into a building, and requisitions a
