Violence is what got us all

in this place to begin with.

This is the end of violence for us.

This is a new beginning.

It's a partnership.

And it starts by you getting

her to open that door.

Your leg.

Oh, my God.

I don't even feel anything.

That's usually a bad sign.

You always know

what to say to a girl.

Up.

You have training in this

kind of a thing, right?

What?

Field surgery?

Dressing wounds?

Yeah.

I mean, it's not my area of

expertise but I know a little bit.

Okay.

Is all this blood normal?

Well, you have a piece

of truck in your leg.

No way is a joke gonna make

me feel more comfortable

in your ability to

not kill me right now.

Grit your teeth.

Looks like we

missed the artery.

But it's gonna be okay, right?

You could still bleed out.

Emerson, lie

to a girl, will you?

Bite down. I think

it's starting to hurt.

Bite.

That was bizarre.

Emerson!

Emerson!

Yeah.

I thought you left me.

How long was I out?

Little while. Not long.

We were ambushed.

Yeah.

So, what? What? They wanted

to stop the broadcasts?

You know as much as I do.

Yeah, but we didn't

do anything wrong.

Right? We were ambushed.

Sit back down.

All the audio files are there. We

had nothing to do with it. So...

They can't blame

us for anything.

Why are you looking

at me like that?

We're fine. We were ambushed.

Calm down.

I am calm. But what

are we gonna do next?

Stop walking

around on your leg.

I'm fine. What

do we do next?

Just tell me what we do now.

Mmm-hmm.

We'll have you out of there

in less than two hours.

Has everything been

taken care of at your end?

I can't confirm that.

Is there a problem?

No.

Get it done, immediately.

What?

Two hours.

Ugh, this drilling

is driving me nuts.

I wanna find

David and Meredith.

You sure no one

else could be in here?

What?

Nothing.

I was just thinking they wanted

something in

the broadcast room.

Gotta get over there.

Think they got

what they came for?

Let's find out.

It's pretty standard activity.

Two broadcasts yesterday.

Three last night.

There's gotta be something.

What? What

do you got?

Fifteen broadcasts

this afternoon.

What?

Just 20 minutes apart.

Whoever broke in here didn't

do it to stop the broadcasts.

Well, that's a good

thing, right?

Katherine, when you

send a broadcast

you're sending out these numbers

to the agents in the field

to deliver specific

assignments they cannot

trust to normal

communication lines.

Do you know what that means?

Fifteen broadcasts.

Fifteen assignments.

Unauthorized.

Assassinations, bombings.

Could be anything.

Murders?

Gonna fix it.

Here, what does it say?

Can't read that.

Agents in the field carry, like,
