Helen Maghi,
one of the world's
most accomplished structural and geotechnical engineers.
ARAM: In the invasion of Iraq,
Maghi designed a floating bridge
to carry tanks and heavy-armor vehicles
across the Euphrates River in the dark of night.
Her crowning achievement is Mount Bastion.
Using proprietary drilling techniques,
she carved into a Pennsylvania mountain of solid granite
to create an impregnable storage facility
favored by the criminal elite,
with more safeguards and redundancies
than the U.S. Bullion Depository.
And you want to break into it.
Well, we found this key
in Reggie Cole's office.
A key to a storage vault in Mount Bastion.
Mount Bastion would never rent a vault to a former police officer,
but they might to his employer.
His employer, Harold's blackmailer,
Elizabeth's killer, all the same person.
What are we waiting for? Let's storm the mountain.
Impossible without Maghi's help.
That's where the task force comes in.
She provided engineering services to some heist crew
working the Port of Virginia.
The crew was just arrested by the FBI,
and Helen is afraid they'll sell her out in a plea bargain.
You want us to make the criminal case
against Helen Maghi go away,
in exchange for her help breaking into Mount Bastion.
How do we feel about that, team?
Show of hands for yes.
Right. I am in charge here.
Okay, uh, Agent Ressler, Agent Zuma,
track down the FBI team that made the arrest.
We'll start by trying to find out what kind of case they have.
You got it.
And Harold. How is he?
Not good.
He's stuck in jail with a bail he can't afford.
They cut open a shipping container
right in the middle of the yard,
directly in front of security cameras,
and nobody saw a thing.
How did they do that?
Look at the red container.
Now check it out 15 minutes later.
(MOUSE CLICKS)
And after that...
And after that.
Who was moving it?
It was moving itself slowly.
So slowly, motion cameras
didn't detect it and security guards never noticed.
The heist crew was hiding inside.
They retrofit the container with hidden wheels,
then crept it into position
next to the stolen cargo to block security cameras.
It was brilliantly engineered,
which makes sense given the woman who hired them.
Helen Maghi.
Now, our intel says that she was hired by the crew,
uh, as a consultant.
Someone is playing you.
The crew we're talking about are high school dropouts.
What did they steal?
Six crates of RPGs.
According to our suspects, Maghi made plans
to ship them to separatist forces in Kazban.
To put it simply, she's arming terrorists.
Mr. Homan? I don't know who that is.
Our friend with the hat.
He posted bail?
DeSOTO: All $300,000.

A deal? A deal for what?
She says she'll take two years

No!

But you were framed.
And to find out why I tampered with evidence and witnesses

You were right, I have to make this right for Agnes.

Mount Bastion.
How do we get in?
My contract with Mount Bastion
was to engineer impenetrable storage vaults inside a mountain
with one heavily fortified way in and out.
To hide its existence from the outside world,
the entire facility had to remain
unconnected to the municipal power grid.
Okay. So to stay off the grid,
Maghi built her own geothermal power station
inside the mountain,
but this created a hidden vulnerability
'cause the system needs a constant supply
of circulating water to dissipate the thermal load.
That water is piped in
underground from a nearby lake.
If anything happens to that water supply, the entire system,
including security,
will overheat and shut down.
So Maghi provided us with GPS coordinates
of an emergency valve hidden on the mountainside.
Once Mr. Reddington and Agent Zuma
are inside the mountain,
you two need to close the valve and cut the water supply.
How do Red and Dembe get inside Mount Bastion?
I thought the place was like Fort Knox.
ARAM: Turns out Mr. Reddington has a vault
of his own there, and, as his former bodyguard,
Dembe has security clearance, too.
This should the enable the both of them
to clear the three levels of biometric scanners,
and from there, it is 30 floors down
to the subterranean vaults.
But, as you know, the guard will escort you
to your private vault,
so you have to go there first.
By the time you reach the vault,
your support team needs to be in position.
ARAM: Mount Bastion keeps the water valve under tight watch
with two guards.
Now, you'll relieve them just before their shift ends,
which gives us a short window before the real guards arrive.

(DOOR CLOSES)
When you get the signal, you need to find
this high-pressure water valve and turn it off quickly.
Without water for cooling, the power system
will immediately shut down and switch to auxiliary power.
When that happens, the guards are ordered
to lock clients into their vaults to keep them safe
and then report to the perimeter
to provide security for the facility.
At that point, the Mount Bastion controller will call Maghi,
the systems designer, to figure out what the problem is.

You recorded that?
She'd harmed your daughter-in-law,
who was harming your granddaughter.
I wonder how that recording would play
for your judiciary committee.
I thought you were trying to help me.
I did help you.
And now you can help me.
Or Harold, to be precise.
You son of a bitch.
Okay, but then again, you didn't know my father.

It's time.
(SNIFFLES)
It'll be okay.
I'm not gonna let you go.
You don't have to.
I'm never gonna let go of you.
But you do have to let me leave.
(DOORBELL RINGS)
I'll see who that is.
You get your things and then we'll go.
I'm gonna call you every day, okay?
I am not going to let you go.
Ever.

Cynthia, what do you want?
Reddington paid me a visit today.
If it's all the same to you,
I really don't want to hear about Reddington right now.
Oh, I think you're gonna want to hear this.

What are you doing here?
We were just on our way to your sentencing hearing.
Panabaker got it postponed.
One month.
To allow me time to finish investigating.
Why did the senator change her mind?
I don't have the details, but I know Reddington got involved.
Does that mean you're back?
Please tell me you're back.
I'm back.
ARAM: You're back. You're back!
Oh, Mr. Cooper! Mr. Cooper's back.
I could kiss you.
You know what? I will kiss you.
You don't understand. The office, the title,
the headaches, they are all yours.
I tried to make you proud.
I stood up to Mr. Reddington.
I showed the courage of my convictions.
And then he sent two fake JTTF agents who trampled all over them.
My convictions and me.
I'm sorry to disappoint you,
but I'm back only as an agent.
Unless and until we can figure out who set me up, you're still the boss.
Uh, okay, but, uh, you can just tell me what to do,
and I'll pretend to boss you into doing it.
Now I just need to show results.
Don't worry. This time you won't be working alone.
We're gonna find your blackmailer, all of us.

There is no more peaceful sound than the quiet of a home

I came here tonight to tell you that from now on,
I won't be working with the rest of the task force
on this case or any other.
Aram.
He leaves me no choice.
I don't trust him.
That's ironic, because you won't find
a more trustworthy soul on this planet.
Then he has you fooled, Harold.
Because he deceived me.
The sort of deceit that gets people killed.
Was it?
Or did he give you a taste of what you give us
and you didn't like it...
Any more than we do?
I have to operate the way I do.
I give, but I get.
And nine times out of 10, my get is the very thing
that enables me to give you what you need.
And as I explained to Aram today,
that's why we need to trust you,
even when you're not forthcoming with us.
For our team to work, one side needs to adhere to rules,
be held accountable.
That's our role as FBI agents.
I forgot that myself, nearly went to jail for it.
Don't be too hard on yourself.
I won't if you won't be too hard on Aram.
Give him another chance.
He's new to the job, he'll learn.
He's also my boss, so I have to back him.
We'll see.
I'll consider your words.
Well, when you're done considering,
turn off the light,
lock the door behind you.
