Person of Interest Episode Guide
Reese goes back to the library and worries that the gang members will go after Darren next
if they think he saw anything. He goes to talk to the waitress, Lisa, who is clearly afraid. Reese
reminds her that Travis helped her and asks her to point him in the right direction. She suggests
that he go to a local comic book store where they hang out. Reese goes to the shop and notices
that the owner, Mr. Wilcox, is handing out free comics to the neighbor kids. One of the shooters,
Brick, comes out, bumping past Andre, and Reese calls Carter to tell her where Brick is heading.
However, Darren approach Brick and draws a gun on him, and demands his brother’s stolen hat
back. Reese intervenes and disarms Darren before he can shoot, and tells Brick that if he has
to shoot then he won’t miss. As Carter pulls up, Brick promises Darren that he and his gang
will be looking for him. Carter arrests Brick while Reese takes Brick’s cell phone and leaves with
Darren.
Once they’re clear, Reese explains that he’s not a cop and figures that Darren pawned everything
he owns, including the trumpet he owns, to buy the gun. Darren explains that his brother
wanted him to go to medical school, and Reese points out that now he’s involved with the gangs.
He says that he’ll take care of the gang and takes Darren to a youth group home where Fusco is
waiting.
Fusco warns that Carter is going to catch on if he keeps running Reese’s errand, but Reese
says that he’ll take care of Carter. The detective has made arrangements with the woman who
runs the home to take care of Darren without filing the paperwork. Reese then goes through
Darren’s sketchbook and finds a drawing of Brick.
At the precinct house, Carter tells Brick that they’re going to run the DNA on Travis’ hat, but
Brick knows it’ll take months to run the tests and asks for his phone call. In response, Carter
tells him that he’ll get out when she takes him to her arraignment.
Reese goes to the basketball court in the sketch and takes photos of the gang members there.
He spots one of them, Curtis, calling a number and picks it up on Brick’s cell phone. They then
get into a nice car and Reese figures that they’ve got some kind of operation running. He calls
Finch to run a check, but the hacker says that he’ll need a couple of hours to get his hardware
replaced. Reese wonders if everything is all right and Finch says that it is.
Once Finch hangs up, he looks up from the desk in his expensive office as the receptionist
brings Will Ingram in. Finch assures him that his insurance business is doing fine, and Will says
that he’s found a few interesting things in his dead father’s belongings.
He show Finch a champagne cork wrapped in a piece of paper with the words ”Day One: The
Machine–January 24, 2005” on it. Will explains that the date is right in the middle of the period
when his father shut down the company. Finch feigns ignorance and Will says that he’s going to
talk to Alicia Corwin, the only name in the files during the blackout. She quit her government
job a year ago and moved to Green Bank, WV: the only town in the U.S. with no cell phones or
wireless Internet. Also, Will knows that his father signed the $1 contract with the government
one day after the note was written. Finch suggests that they get lunch and secretly pairs Will’s
cell phone. As they leave, Fusco takes photo of them. However, he gets a call that Darren has left
the home.
Reese is watching Curtis when Fusco calls to tell him that Darren is missing. The detective
says that he’s too busy following Finch, and Reese notices a bar in one of Darren’s sketches.
At the bar, Darren goes in and demands to know where Curtis and his partner Trim are. Two
thugs take offense and start to attack Darren, but Reese arrives and takes them both out. He
then hustles Darren out and goes to a diner. As they order, Reese tells Darren to promise to stop
looking for his brother’s killers. In response, Darren gives Reese all the money he has left to take
down the killers. He says that Reese must be a ronin: a masterless samurai who wanders the
land helping people. Reese says that he’s not hired, but Darren says that he has a better chance
of staying alive if Reese is with him. When Reese realizes that he won’t convince Darren to stay
low, he gives Darren all of his money back except for a quarter and says that there’ll be no killing.
Reese and Darren follow Curtis and Tone rim, and Darren insists that Reese should be acting
instead of watching. In response, Reese says that observation is the key. He watches as the
gangers collect protection money from businessmen, including the money they get from running
lottery tickets through the stores. Darren warns that the cops don’t care and are probably paid
off, but Reese figures that they can handle them now that they know where they’re getting their
money.
Reese goes to the gangers’ SUV, breaks in, and drives away. He then calls Darren and tells him
