Person of Interest Episode Guide
terrible things – murders, kidnappings – either as victim or perpetrator. Once such woman is
Diane Hanson. Finch knows that she’s involved and wants Reese to get innovled and stop it from
happening. Reese isn’t interested.
We see Reese in a hotel room watching a news report about himself. He then drinks himself
into unconsciousness and briefly dreams about Jessica, the woman he was with in the flashback.
The phone rings. It is Finch, telling him that what he needs is to know what it feels like to let
somebody be killed when you could have helped. Reese’s hand is tied to the bed and he hears the
sound of someone being hurt across the hall. He bursts into the room only to find Finch sitting
next to a recording. The recording was three years old, from when a woman was murdered for
insurance. Finch says something about Reese being halfway across the world when Jessica was
killed. Finch says that unlike the government he’ll never lie to Reese. Finch says he’s offering the
chance to be there for people the way he couldn’t be for Jessica.
Finch takes Reese to his remote base of operation. Finch references how little Reese knows
about him and says that isn’t likely to change. We see that Finch has been getting social security
numbers of these persons of interest, but he won’t tell Reese how.
The woman in question is Diane Hanson, a highly successful assistant district attorney. Reese
breaks into her home and grabs as much information as he can. He hacks her cell phone and
points a wireless camera at her apartment.
Reese has narrowed the list of likely suspect to two: Wheeler, a former boyfriend and cocounselor
and Pope, the man she’s currently prosecuting for a gang-related murder. Reese thinks
Pope’s gang could be targeting her.
Hanson has a dispute with a detective witness when he strays from the testimony they had
talked about. She meets with Pope alone and tells him she doesn’t think he murdered the people.
She asks if he is protecting somebody and he tells her ”these people” are evil and she should
leave it alone. Pope ends up grabbing her by the throat and warning her not to do anything.
Reese thinks the people who framed Pope will be coming after Hanson and thinks Pope’s brother
Michael is the only person who will know who they are.
In another Reese flashback he tells his woman he tells her that he’s already quit the service.
They turn on the TV and see the planes crashing into the World Trace Center on 9/11.
Reese sees Wheeler find information about Michael.
Reese finds Michael, who runs away from him. Michael gets away, but not before Reese is
able to plant his cell phone in Michael’s backpack.
Reese pays a visit to his gang leader buddy from the opening, Anton O’Mara, when he goes to
buy guns. Reese shoot everybody in the room (other than Anton) in the leg and takes the guns.
Michael is grabbed by guys threatening to kill him gang-style. Reese uses his newfound arsenal
to take out the car and the guys. We see that the men were cops.
Reese shows Finch they are up against dirty narcotics cops, who steal money and drugs and
frame people like Pope for their crime. Finch tells him that after 9/11 he helped the government
design a secret system to eavesdrop on U.S. citizens. He ”taught” it to separate information
related to possible terrorism from other potential crime. But he built himself a backdoor to get
at the rest of the information and all he is able to get is the social security number of the central
figure. If the government were to ever learn he still has this access he’ll be shut out.
Carter learns ”a suit” took out Anton’s entire gang by himself.
Pope is stabbed to death in his cell. Hanson is called for a meeting in an out-of-the-way alley.
Reese follows her and sees that Hanson is in actually cahoots with the dirty cops, who are led by
an officer Stills. Reese is captured while watching the meeting. Hanson tells them to take care of
Reese and then to the same to Wheeler. She admits she was behind the killing of Pope.
Reese wakes up in the car driven by Fusco, who was on the stand earlier. He tells the Fusco
he thinks that unlike Stills he’s only participating in these crimes out of loyalty. Reese says that
is why he is going to let him live and they both laugh. Reese is going to be sticking around New
York for a while and he wants to have a guy on the inside. Reese then sets off an explosive in
the back of the car which flips it over. Reese gets out pulls the unconscious Fusco out of the car.
After asking if he is wearing a vest Reese shoots him three times in the back.
Reese tells Finch about Hanson being the ringleader.
Cut to Stills and one of his buddies at Wheeler’s place. They are planning to kill Wheeler and
frame an ex-con who they pull out of the trunk. Wheeler is with his kid but that doesn’t seem to
deter Stills’ plan. Reese gets the jump on one of Stills’ accomplices and puts a gun to his head.
