- Reese protects an NYPD analyst whose investigation into a software glitch has drawn the attention of Samaritan. Also, Reese and Fusco are threatened by an ally of Elias's, who is looking to avenge his friend's death.
- The team is divided in their efforts. Finch has set up a confined simulation to see how the Machine would fare against Samaritan in an open battle, the process largely excluding Root. Beyond that exclusion, Root and Finch have a philosophical disagreement on how best to handle the outcome of the simulation, most specifically if Finch needs to make changes to the Machine's coding so that she can better protect herself. Fusco has been menacingly approached by Bruce Moran, an associate of Elias'. Moran, who had been underground since Elias' death four months ago, is looking for answers from the people he thinks are in the know, Fusco only the most visible. They have to decide how much to divulge to Moran for his and their own good. With those three occupied, Reese is left largely on his own to deal with the latest number, that belong to Ethan Garvin, a sound analyst for ShotSeeker, a company that produced and administers a program used by the NYPD that monitors false alarm sounds, most specifically things that may sound like gunshots but are really something else like a firecracker or a car backfiring, before the police are dispatched. Reese eventually learns that Ethan believes that ShotSeeker misidentified three rapid fire sounds as firecrackers that were really gunshots. In that, he also believes that those gunshots killed a young woman named Krupa Naik, a research scientist who has been missing since. Evidence points to a man named JD Carrick as her murderer, he the CEO of a company that wanted to buy her research so that he could quash it as it being used or known would hurt his business. As Reese and the team uncover who is behind wanting Ethan killed, all their issues start to converge into one big issue already known to them, namely Samaritan.—Huggo
- The Machine delivers the number of Ethan Gavin, an analyst that works with the surveillance system called ShotSeeker at the Real Time Crime Center identifying gunshots in New York City. When Gavin leaves his job, Reese follows him to an apartment building, where he searches for the student of doctorate in chemistry Krupa Nalk. He breaks in her apartment and shoots the fireplace. Reese arrests him and he explains that there were gunshots in Krupa's apartment a couple of days ago, but the ShotSeeker reported as firecrackers. Since that day, Krupa is missing. Meanwhile, Fusco is approached by Bruce Moran, who wants to know what happened with his friend Elias in the shooting, and threatens his son. Fusco tells Reese that promises to resolve the situation and asks him to protect Gavin. Fusco and Garvin meet the founder of a non-profit organization, Benjamin Haas, who tells that Krupa had developed a project that might end hunger in the world. Further, the project was stolen the night Krupa had disappeared. The main suspect is JD Carrick, who wanted to buy her research to keep the profits of his company. Meanwhile. Finch and Root prepare simulation to analyze the outcome of a battler between The Machine and the Samaritan.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
