| - Elias is talking on the phone, wondering what kind of man he would have been if his mother hadn’t been murdered. File:1x19 - Carter with Taylor.png Carter is seeing her son Taylor off to school and realizes that he’s upset about something. He explains that some rich student is giving him trouble because he’s there on a scholarship, but insists on handling it herself. Taylor tells his mother that he’ll catch the subway home that night because she’s working. As Carter watches her son go inside, she gets a call from Detective Sherri Lablanca in SID. She tells Carter that the accounts that Elias used for his recent investment scam have been drained dry. Reese arrives at the Library and Finch tells him that they have five numbers: the five heads of the New York mobs, including Gianni Moretti, Jr., who took over when his father went to prison. They figure that the only person crazy enough to take on the mob leaders is Elias, who has already kidnapped his father and plans to take control. The five Dons meet at the Covenant Club in Brooklyn, and Finch goes in and hacks the fire alarm system sound system. File:1x19 - POI Mafia.png The two men listen in as four of the mobsters discuss the usual business. Gianni Jr. wonders when they’re going to retaliate against Elias. However, the other mobsters are willing to let it go, figuring that Gianni Sr. set himself up by killing his wife, Elias’ mother. As long as Elias brings in money, they don’t care what he does. Finch figures that they need to convince the mobsters won’t make a deal, and tells Reese to call and apologize to Carter so she’ll start working with them again. Reese makes the call but Carter ignores it. She’s meeting with Lablanca, who says that Elias shipped the $4 million out to a thousand payees as cash and wire transfers, making it impossible to trace without months of effort. As Fusco secretly listens in, Carter figures that Elias is using the money to make pay for a lot of bribes. File:1x19 - Moretti and Elias.png Elias goes to the winery where he's holding the imprisoned Gianni Moretti (“Baby Blue”) and brings him some food, but refuses to leave him a knife. He tells his father that Gianni and his ilk have gone soft, and Gianni wonders why he doesn’t kill him. Smiling, Elias tells him that he wants him to watch as he reunites the families under one roof. Simmons calls Fusco to Queens and tells him to get intel on Reese. HR knows that the Feds have a task force out looking for Reese, and they’re helping out Elias because it’s in their own interests. Simmons tells Fusco to call in sick afterward and warns him that he doesn’t want to be working Homicide the next couple of days. File:1x19 - Explosion.png Reese tells Finch that they’ll have to take the direct approach and goes to one of the mobsters, Caparelli, as he leaves a restaurant. When Reese tries to tell him about Elias, Caparelli says that he isn’t interested. As they drive off, their SUV explodes, injuring several nearby pedestrians. Reese sees Scarface drive away, smiling in satisfaction.
