| - The Machine reviews events and conversations related to HR and Alonzo Quinn. A video camera monitors an attack on a delivery truck. At the Library, Reese discovers Finch with an armful of books, which he adds to a table already piled high with other books. Finch announces that the Machine has issued 38 numbers, and that the first few he has identified are all police officers, most of whom are known to be members of HR. Reese volunteers to reach out to Fusco, who tells him that he has something he needs to see. Fusco approaches an officer at the scene of the truck attack and flashes his badge. Suddenly, Reese is next to him announcing himself as Detective Stills and using his star. The officer tells them that details of the attack are scare since the driver only speaks Russian. Fusco is able to translate enough words to determine that an office supply truck was attacked and stolen. Reese asks Fusco to retrieve the video camera footage from a nearby street camera. At a diner, Quinn has coffee with Carter, who tells him that she is closing the book on the investigation into Cal Beecher's murder. Quinn offers her the assistance of the Mayor's office, but she politely declines. Carter takes the opportunity to bluejack his phone. Back in his office, Quinn calls Simmons to discuss his meeting with Carter and their rendezvous with Peter Yogorov scheduld for later that day in Redhook. At the abandoned Redhook Brewery, Simmons, accompanied by detective Stan Mitchell, meets with Yogorov and his associate Nikolai Yurlov. Carter uses a parabolic mic to listen in from across the river. Simmons announces that HR is expecting an additional 10% increase in their fees to protect the Russians drug shipments. Yogorov is offended and declines and Simmons tells him that HR will not offer protection for their next shipment. Carter arrives home later that night while Detective Mitchell surveilles her from his car. She enters her home and her instincts alert her almost instantly that she has a guest; and that it's Reese. Reese asks where Taylor is and Carter tells him that her son is somewhere safe. He then points out Mitchell sitting outside and offers to take care of him but she declines his offer. Reese warns her that he knows that she is going after HR and that if she gets in over her head she should call him. After Reese leaves, she smashes her phone.
