Person of Interest Episode Guide
Once Reese meet with the other two men, Tommy shows him the ropes. He and Langston
joke around and Reese tells Finch that they’re not ready for any serious threat. As the armored
car makes a stop, Finch confirms that one car has shown up several times on the cameras near
the armored car. Langston warns Reese that there are men with guns closing in and Reese goes
around the back to investigate. Tommy jumps out, wearing a clown mask, and Reese just avoids
shooting him. Finch warns his partner that since the Machine doesn’t make mistakes, something
bad will happen.
2010 — Agent Snow and his superior, Alicia Corwin, visit the safehouse and tell Reese and
Stanton that they’ve been reassigned to China. Reese says that he needs to take some leave but
Corwin refuses and says that he’s needed to recover a missing item, a computer virus named
Stuxnet. It was originally designed to disable the Iranian nuclear program, but a traitor in the
Pentagon has sold a version intended for the Chinese to that country’s government. Reese and
Stanton will be going to Ordos, an abandoned factory town in China, to recover the laptop that
holds the Chinese version of Stuxnet. They’re to maintain radio silence at all times because
communications in the area are monitored.
As Stanton goes on ahead, Snow tells Reese that he’s to kill her partner because she’s working
with Hezbollah. Once he’s alone, Reese tries to call Jessica but gets her voice mail, and hangs up
without leaving a message.
The Present — When Reese returns to their headquarters, Finch tells him that he has hacked
the armored car company’s record and confirmed their route. Fusco calls to tell Reese that HR
is hitting street criminals for money now that Elias isn’t paying them, and Reese tells Fusco to
keep on HR to find out their leaders. When Fusco wonders what he should do with the money
he’s pocketing, Reese says that he doesn’t care. Once Fusco hangs up, he tells his son Lee that
he’s going to buy him some new sporting equipment.
Finch sends photos of the license plate numbers to Carter, and she confirms that the car
belongs to a 72-year-old man with no criminal record. However, his son Frank Lowell and buddy
Mick Norton just got out of prison after serving time for armed robbery. Carter asks Reese if
he needs help but he tells her that he’s got it covered. He then meets Langston in a diner, and
they watch as Tommy comes in after his wife and son drop him off. The waitress, Ashley, flirts
briefly with Tommy and shows off the diamond tennis bracelet that she says she got from her
grandmother. Tommy insists that he’s a married man and Ashley gets him a sandwich for the
road.
As they drive to their stops, Tommy explains that he got shot once and took two hits, and
collected hazard pay as a result. He tells Reese that the job is mostly boredom. The armored
car stops at several destinations, including a medical supply house. However, Finch tells Reese
that they make pacemakers out of platinum and the supply house is shipping $1.25 million in
precious metal. Reese keeps an eye out as they pull away but nothing happens... until a manhole
cover explodes beneath them. Reese is stunned in the crash but quickly gets out and takes out
the two robbers, Lowell and Norton. However, Tommy shoots first Reese from behind and then
takes out Langston as well, and then drives off with the robbers.
2010 — Reese and Stanton arrive outside of Ordos and a local team take them into the city
borders. The team leader takes all of their comm devices and provides chem lights so they can
signal for helicopter evac once they have the laptop. The two agents make their way into the
seemingly abandoned town and head for the computer center, and find the courtyard filled with
several dozen corpses.
The Present — Reese wakes up in the OR as the doctors work on Langston. Carter arrives to
sneak Reese out, explaining that the bullet bruised him but failed to penetrate his bulletproof
vest. Reese realizes that the Machine sent them there to stop Tommy, not protect him, and they
figure that Tommy will have to fence the platinum. Finch calls and, after confirming that Reese
is okay, sends him a photo he took of Tommy using a second phone to signal the robbers.
Fusco is at the park with his son when Lynch comes over and tells him that HR needs him to
pick something up. The captain tells Fusco to go to Brooklyn and wait for orders, and warns the
detective that failure isn’t an option.
Carter has Joyce Clay brought to the station and interrogates her, but the officer soon realizes
that Joyce has no idea what her husband was up to. The police have found a box for a diamond
tennis bracelet at the Clay house that Tommy stole from a previous shipment, but Joyce has
no idea what it is. Carter realizes that Tommy is having an affair and calls to warn Finch. He’s
