Quantico

- Previously on "Quantico"... - We believe Owen Hall,

the head instructor, is the recruiter.

Lydia: Everything you'll learn is a capital offense.

León: Something doesn't add up.

Something about you.

I'm not coming back, Miranda.

I'm gonna stay here at The Farm,

find the AIC, and take them down myself.

Charlotte: No one suspects you're a double agent?

- Nope. - Good.

They chose me, Alex, not you.

It's over.

That's what I wanted you to believe.

President Todd will hand over power

to Vice President Claire Haas.

I wasn't wrong about your broken heart. Lydia?

I let my career get in the way of our relationship.

_

_

I am one of the terrorists.

And after the conversation that we are about to have,

you will be, too.

This is where we're headed.

You're telling me there's been a way inside the crisis zone

this whole time, and no one's found it?

Last week, Eric Boyer edited a service tunnel

out of every digital map in this city

in case they needed a way out.

You say "they" as if you're not a part of them.

You went inside The Farm to stop a group of insurgents

inside the CIA, and you failed.

Someone noticed, and they contacted me.

Ryan.

Someone else.

Someone who knew how ruinous this group could be

to the very foundation of this country, to the world.

They knew what it took to stop them.

We knew lines had to be crossed.

You have betrayed every oath that you have ever taken.

Once all this is over,

you're gonna pay for everything you've done.

Everyone will, Alex.

Including you.

_

Charlotte: I've done some digging,

and this group appears to be very, very real.

And what did you find out?

No specifics I'd like to share with AT&T.

Let's just say the AIC appear to be the answer

to a lot of unsolved questions

the home office has had the past few months.

Okay. Well, how should I proceed?

I thought you had someone on the inside,

but your work with Alex Parrish seems to be going nowhere.

I think I've been backing the wrong horse up to now.

Then change horses.

Thank you, as ever, for your encouraging words.

Next year you can come with us.

You'll see how much joy there is

building these shelters for these kids,

working with their churches.

Carly: You don't have to leave already, do you?

You are the one who has to drive

two and a half hours after breakfast.

I can be late.

You cook, too?

Well, I've spent a lot of time alone.

Consider this the last piece to my apology.

Whatever did you do so I could deserve all of this?

Why don't you go take a shower?

I'll plate this.

Okay.

Hey.

We need to talk about the other night.

Yeah, I figured this was bigger

than a "run the bathroom sink or blender" conversation.

I need to know what you're gonna do with your phone.

You know that's none of your business.

Maybe not mine, but I'm on my way

to a safe house somewhere,

full of people who will make it theirs.

Has yours even rung yet?

Yours hasn't?

I'm sorry. Look.

Separating our work and our relationship is getting harder.

The mission will end.

Being at The Farm will end.

We won't.

No matter what's happening,

that doesn't change how we feel about each other.

Not yet.

Oh-ho-ho!

Please, go ahead.

No, no, you go first.

How about I just see you back there?

Yeah, okay.

I'll, uh...

I'll go west.

- Yep. - Yep.

Clever girl.

Is this made by StarTAC?

Do you get free rollover minutes?

What are you doing? Put that back.

What, back in your pocket?

Where it's been through every conversation

we've had this last week?

Oh, two weeks? Oh.

And there I was thinking you needed my help,

but you've just played me like you've been playing him.

I've been there before.

What are you, spying on us?

This should not be your concern, Harry.

You should be tracking Owen's movements.

Yeah, well, he hasn't been anywhere besides class,

the Gold Leaf, and home this last week.

The radioactive isotope we've put in him

has since worn off, and we are none the wiser.

But not that any of that matters,

because you've had what we've needed this whole time.

You know, you had in me, unlike Ryan,

someone you could trust who's on your side...

Or was, rather.

Because

I think I've just found me a new ride.

Wait.

Don't.

Don't what?

What are you gonna do, phone a friend?

How are you gonna do that, Alex?

"Operating an asset" means giving someone a reason

to do what you want them to do.

Which is?

Spy for you.

Goes without saying.

What else?

Provide intelligence or secrets.

Getting warmer.

Change sides?

Betray their country?

Betray their loved ones?

Betray themselves.

Owen: Correct, all of you.

But there are many layers to operating an asset,

and it all starts with leverage.

In our game, there are four points of leverage...

Money, ideology, coercion, and ego.

We call this "MICE."

Owen: But in my experience, I like to add another letter...

"D," for "doubt."

If you can give your asset a reason to doubt...

Doubt who they can trust, what they believe in,

how they're perceived... Then you have found

their largest point of leverage.

But seeding doubt takes time.

You have to do the research, find the pressure points,

get your leverage... Which is what you'll be doing

for the next few hours.

But doubt not, your patience will be rewarded.

What's up?

I have orders from Miranda,

and you're not going to like them.

Harry: Ooh, hot.

I didn't know you were into this sort of thing.

Let's be honest, I'm not surprised.

I want my phone back, Harry.

But you've already got one.

I've seen you 'Gram all those inspirational quotes with it.

You're not leaving.

Nimah: This ends now.

What does?

Alex's time at The Farm.

We gave you the benefit of the doubt

that wouldn't stand in the way, but that's over.

They recruited me.

Did they?

Because this phone has only received two phone calls,

and neither of them were answered.

If I didn't know you better, Alex,

I would say you mocked this up yourself.

What do you want?

I want to know every single thing you know

and when you know it.

Or I can go to Ryan

and combine the powers of the FBI and MI6.

You wouldn't do that.

Wouldn't I?

You've already told your boyfriend you have this,

which means your former employers now know,

and their next move is to eliminate

any threat to their mission.

She's not FBI anymore.

She could compromise your mission.

I won't sabotage Alex.

One way or another,

she'll be done.

Better it be you.

You eliminate Ryan, and then we can talk.
