Andrew’s fiancée came by to see Avery on tonight’s episode. Apparently the other woman had noticed how much Andrew and Avery have been communicating recently and she thought it was something to be concerned about. So that was the reason behind the sudden visit and, once the two women met, Jessica had then warned Avery away.
She said she was marrying Andrew and that Avery shouldn’t come in the way of that. However, a jealous fiancée was something that Avery could have done without. Especially on the day the U.S. government had gotten hacked by a hacker who has already proven they have access to some of government’s most sensitive files. And was not afraid to show this proof to some of the country’s most sought out leading intelligence figures.
So Avery and her people had a lot on their hands. This “proof” which was the SF-86 file was what each potential government employer had to fill out before they could be given a job with the federal government. And the file pretty mush goes into detail about every single thing in regards to one person’s life.
And therefore sexual history as well as sensitive financial matters could be up for grabs. If not just out right state secrets.
Yet, the Cyber Unit was short one member. Raven as some of us may recall had her parole on the line when the director chose to end the hacker for hire program last week because of what Nelson had tried to do involving his own. Only Nelson got his freedom and chose to stay on at the Unit. While Raven was waiting around to hear if a judge was going to sentence her to prison.
And well, D.B. felt like the team needed her as well as her expertise on this particular case. So he told her to ignore the official ruling by staying on for a few more days and that if someone had a problem with it then they could take it up with him.
Thus Raven and everyone who knew Raven was supposed to go home had ignored her overturned probation deal in favor of having her stay on. However, they soon found out that they weren’t looking for a terrorist or someone about to threaten the government. And that the person they were in fact hunting was actually a thirteen-year-old teenager who was just too smart for his own good.
Jake Hazelton had seemingly set up two computers in his room without his parents’ knowledge and had then broken into the federal government’s sever without anyone being aware. So the teenage was smart however that didn’t make him dangerous. What made him dangerous was the people that he chose to associate with.
Jake had gone to a friend of his following the hack and the man he had known as Wizard had understood that Jake hadn’t meant to break into the government’s server. He had merely been playing around when it happened and it had surprised the teenager with how easy it had been. So he had tried to help Jake and ensure that Jake didn’t suffer any repercussions. However, the third member of their online association happened to be Echo who in real was Jeffery Stevens. And Jeffery wanted to use Jake to get rich.
So he had told the guys to not hand anything over back to the FBI and when they chose to ignore his more obvious idea of cashing in, in favor of doing the right thing – he pulled out a gun. And Wizard had stepped in the way of that gun to stop Echo from getting his hands on Jake’s hard drive. Wizard unfortunately was shot yet he had bought Jake enough time to escape.
And, once the Cyber team had realized what happened after they found Wizard, they then were hoping to find him before anyone else.
Which in this case included their own people in other departments in the FBI. Jake, you see, had unfortunately been thought off as a domestic terrorist and that had left a lot of people wanting to shoot first and ask questions later. Only Avery stood her ground on the matter and said that she didn’t believe Jake was as dangerous as they wished to make him out.
In fact, she thought Echo was the only threat to National Security. So Avery and D.B. found Wizard’s computer and had logged on for clues he might have left about where Jake could have gone when they noticed something. Although Wizard later died from his injuries – they noticed that someone had gone back online using his handle.
And that meant Echo was pretending to be Wizard online in order to lure Jake to him. But Raven had found a way to turn on Jake’s wifi remotely and so she eventually able to lead her team to Jake just when he desperately needed them.
Echo had found him first and he had short Jake however the FBI were able to recover the hard drive and Krumtiz personally saved Jake’s life. So a crisis was diverted! At least at the time but later Mundo’s stalker had found him and attempted to shoot him in the bureau’s parking lot.
Fortunately, though, DB was there and he finally put an end to crazy Nina. Yet following his very long day at the office, DB went ahead with putting in his papers and chose to follow his girlfriend to Paris. Meanwhile back in DC, Raven got a job as a consultant at the bureau which means she could still work with all of her friends.
THE END!
