FRANK: This was on the box that the Astghik pulled out of the water.
Whatever Mom was working on, this has to be a part of it.
MS. DIAZ: She said her family was running the town.
FRANK: You're making them sound like they're a secret organization.
‐ That's what they are.
‐ They called themselves "The Circle of the Eye."
The Nabokovs, the Khans, and the Estabrooks.
‐ Did Mom know about all of this?
GLORIA: Laura was very good at finding herself in places
she was not supposed to be.
GEORGE [over tape recorder]: Laura, you must never let your mother,
or anyone else, reassemble The Eye.
FRANK: Mom wanted to expose the truth,
and bring down the Circle.
No Eye, no Circle.
Let's finish what she started.
JOE: So you're going undercover.
‐ I've been thinking about my successor.
The legacy of The Eye will fall to you, Francis.
STACY: She's gonna make the same mistakes as they always have.
‐ You don't want to destroy The Eye. You want it for yourself.
You're the same as everyone else.
‐ You know whatever happens now is on you.

All in your father's warehouse?

‐ Hey, Frank. STACY [over phone]: Hey, Joe.
Guess Frank's not home.
‐ Joe, don't give her anything. Don't give her the piece.
‐ Callie? Callie!
STACY [over phone]: Quiet! ‐ What did you do?
‐ What I had to.
Look, you tell Frank that if he ever wants to see his little girlfriend again,
he's gonna bring me the Estabrook piece of The Eye.
‐ We don't have it anymore.
STACY [over phone]: Oh, Joe.
[laughs] We are so far past playing dumb.
The piece, in exchange for Callie.
Midnight. The warehouse by the docks. Oh, and, uh,
unless you want to find your brother's girlfriend in a ditch somewhere,
don't call the cops.

When I was a little girl, I would lie in bed at night,
and I could hear the sound of it coming through the vents.
[laughs softly]
That's how I knew my father was in this room.
[Gloria chuckles]
‐ When did he tell you about all this?
The Eye. The Circle?
‐ Mm, I suppose I was not much older than you are now.
FRANK: Mm.
‐ I always knew that he was keeping something from me.
No idea what it was.
‐ Do you think things would have turned out differently
if he didn't find The Eye?
‐ Oh, yes, I do.
But when you're in possession of something
so much greater than you are...
I think it corrupted him. It changed him.
But I don't blame The Eye for losing my father.
Or your mother.
An object in and of itself can't be good or bad.
‐ It's what we do with it.
‐ Exactly.
Which is why we have to be careful
it never gets in the hands of someone who would do harmful things with it.
‐ Stacy's gonna come after it.

And when she does,
we'll be ready.

[liquid brewing] FENTON: Frank, what's, uh, going on with that coffee?
‐ It's almost done.
‐ See, this is nice.
Coffee. Cereal. Not worrying about the world being taken over
by a power‐obsessed secret organization.
[Fenton chuckles] Just a normal family breakfast.
‐ Normal's boring.
‐ Yeah, that's why we have you, Joe.
[Fenton chuckles] ‐ Thanks, Frank.
[coffee pouring]
‐ You know, I'm really gonna miss you guys.
[cups thud on table]
I was kind of getting used to the chaos.
‐ I thought we drove you crazy. TRUDY: Oh, you do.
But, I like having you around.
FENTON: Well, that's good to hear,
because we were talking,
and we would all like to stay in Bridgeport for a while.
‐ Oh, and I think they're looking for a new police chief, too.

She got into a van and sped off.

Where's the fun in that?
‐ Well, I had fun, and I don't need to brag about it.
‐ Yeah. I never thought I'd do so much before college.
Wait. Have I peaked?
ALL: Yes. [laughing]
‐ Guys, I think we should let Frank and Joe finish up here.
Come. Come on.

Uh, listen...
Thank you. For everything.
We could have never done this alone.

Do you think anyone will mind if I put it on my "re‐sume?"

CHET: It's re‐ sume, Phil. PHIL: Oh...
‐ So, when are you going back to the city?

I mean, that's‐‐ It's gonna suck staying here.
