Quantico

- Previously on "Quantico"... - Drew: My career is over.

What am I supposed to do? What's left for me?

Agent Susan Coombs, your new handler.

Do you have any idea what kind of an asset

you're going to be in counterterrorism?

Shelby: Caleb is not only violent,

he is actively engaged with a cult.

He's a danger to all of us.

I don't know you at all, Ryan.

Why do you want to talk to Alex?

Because the last person who saw Natalie Vasquez alive was Alex.

Find her.

Alex. I'm sick.

I helped build it. The nuke.

You have to find it.

FBI!

Alex Parrish, we have a warrant for your...

Caleb: Hey, Booth.

You're just in time for "Clever Carriage Home."

How much do you think this rusticated bench will go for?

Talk to me!

Man: Clear! We got nothing.

She isn't here. But Caleb is.

Bring him in. I'll get him to talk.

Yep, you're not gonna find her here.

She hasn't been here since yesterday.

Then where is she?

Alex: We called the tip in six hours ago.

They still haven't found anything.

I don't understand.

Will said that he was forced to assemble the nuclear bomb

inside the church's catacombs.

Oh, my God.

Maybe the bomb's portable.

- So, what do we do? - I don't know.

Maybe... Maybe Will can help us

with our next lead when he wakes up.

If he wakes up, Alex. He's in the ICU.

Where are we on finding Simon?

Well, if Simon helped Will build the bomb,

he would be suffering from the same levels

of radiation sickness.

I just ran a search of the city hospitals

to see if there's any other patients

suffering from similar symptoms.

There's a John Doe at the ICU at St. Luke's.

Male, 5'10", brown hair...

Do you think that could be Simon?

Meet me there.

Be careful. They're looking for you.

I know.

You think you're strong? Well, somebody's stronger.

You think you're fast? There's somebody faster.

Close quarters combat isn't about strength and speed.

It's about who can adapt more quickly to their surroundings.

Technique will help you.

Instinct will save your life.

Welcome to the Box.

The Box is meant to simulate a real-world encounter

in a confined space.

Liam: Because out in the field,

you don't get to choose the when and where.

You certainly don't get to choose who you fight.

Speaking of which, meet your new sparring partners...

us.

Parrish, you're up.

Ready to get your ass kicked by a girl?

Hey.

I thought that you might want to check out

the book Liam was talking about in class earlier.

Sure. Of course.

How did you know I always wanted to read

"The Standard System for Investigating

and Classifying Violent Crime"?

Eh, you know. I just...

You know you don't need an excuse to talk to me, right?

I'll keep that in mind.

Guess that's a rain check on that ass-kicking.

Looks like everything that's old is new again.

Iris: Yeah, you don't waste any time, do you?

Drew's been gone for, what, 20 minutes?

Thank you, sir.

What is he doing back here?

I thought you said you'd handled it.

I thought I had, too.

She's watching.

We read the brief on the Poughkeepsie cell

that you want us to infiltrate,

and, honestly, they are years away from being a threat.

We're wasting our time.

I think what my sister means is...

No training wheels.

If we have to go into a cell, I want the biggest one.

I was us to go after the men who attacked Quantico.

We're ready.

I don't need to tell you what happens

if you're not ready.

- I'll talk to my supervisor. - Thank you.

Liam: Good job today.

Let's go get cleaned up.

A little late to be turning in your field assignment form,

don't you think?

I asked O'Connor if I could redo mine.

Buffalo, Cleveland, Milwaukee...

Those are old-age homes.

Weren't you and Alex applying for New York?

All three of these offices

are a few hours by car to the Canadian border.

I could see them every weekend.

Look, I know you're probably upset Caleb's back,

and so am I, but I don't want you

making a choice you're going to regret later.

Iris, just because I don't want what you want

doesn't mean that I'm making a mistake.

For the record, you just got lucky.

Even Ronda Rousey loses sometimes, okay?

I want a rematch.

What, you're not gonna say anything?

- Well, this is way more fun. -

Where did you learn that move anyway...

the backflip thing?

I don't know.

But it saved my life in Afghanistan.

Afghanistan, huh?

- Two tours. - I know.

I just wasn't entirely sure if that was real.

Um... wow.

The real Ryan Booth... still a mystery.

Well, that part was true.

And everything else?

Oh, you know, I don't know. I just...

I was a different person back then.

- Shut up. - You know, it was...

Okay, okay.

How about, when I'm not your trainee anymore,

maybe we could get caught up on everything over dinner.

T-minus two weeks before I'm your equal.

Well, not quite equal.

I'll rise fast.

All right, two weeks,

and you might need more than one dinner.

There's still a lot you don't know.

Liam: Panic attacks, insecurity,

insubordination, exasperation,

crippling self-doubt...

These are all symptoms trainees have experienced

on their first day of work at their new field office.

So, here at the Academy,

we're trying something different.

We're gonna give you a chance to visit a field office

before you graduate.

Ryan: You'll shadow real agents working real cases.

And as these agents don't know you personally,

they will be evaluating you...

specifically your readiness to work.

Liam: So, if I were you,

I would put my best foot forward.

Ryan: All right, since the entire class can't visit

the same field office, we split you up into groups.

So, Parrish, Wyatt, Chang,

Fletcher, Haas, and the Amin twins,

you seven are coming with me to the Richmond field office.

We move out in 20.

Man: The following trainees are coming

to the Norfolk field office...

I may not be able to prove what you did to Will,

but are you why Shelby is changing

her field office assignment request to Buffalo?

What are you talking about?

Okay, I don't believe all that

"I just want to be closer to my family" thing.

I think it's you.

T-That's a huge mistake.

You got to stop her.

How about I stop you instead?

I don't care who your family is, but you're done.

You just don't know it yet.

I spoke with my supervisor,

and we're going to test you today.

Let me guess...

You want us to play one person and swap back and forth?

Yes, but that's not the hard part.

We've already told an agent in the office

that you will be posing as one trainee.

This agent knows who you are, but you don't know who they are.

The test is simple...

Identify your contact without blowing your cover.

Just like in the field, they can't walk up to you

and say, "Nice to meet you. I'm your contact."

You have to figure out who they are by looking for cues

and arranging to meet without being found out.

We'll do our best, but... what if we fail?

If you fail, I won't even be able
