Summary: Finch gives Reese his birthday off so that his partner doesn’t have to
face a Number reminiscent of a case from Reese’s past.
2011 — Reese is on a bus leaving New Rochelle. A kid
notices him and asks why his side is bleeding.
The Present — At their headquarters, Finch comes in
and finds Reese already there. The programmer says
that they don’t have a Number and gives Reese the day
off, and then admits that he knows it’s Reese’s birthday.
Finch gives him a small gift box and tells him to
do whatever he usually does on his days off, and Reese
eyes him suspiciously. Once he leaves, Finch enters the
new Number into the computer and confirms it belongs
to a woman calling herself Karen Garner.
Reese ends up at the park playing checkers with an
old friend, Mr. Han. Once Reese tells him, Han wishes
him a happy birthday and asks what he got. When
Reese opens the box, he discovers that it contains an
unmarked key.
FBI Agent Donnelly comes to see Carter and explains
that he has a lead on Reese from a smuggling case a few
months back. Reese’s blood was found at the scene of
a shooting and they’ve matched the DNA to blood found
at the home of Peter Arndt, a real estate developer who
disappeared in 2011 and is presumed dead. Donnelly
explains that Arndt was deeply in debt and figures one
of his investors may have hired Reese to kill him. The agent asks Carter if she wants to work the
case with him since she’s been on Reese since the beginning, and Carter says that she’ll think
about it.
Finch calls Carter and arranges a meeting at a working-bar. She asks him about New Rochelle
and realizes that he knows something.
