Liz and Red are waiting to hear new about the Grims when she tells Red that she hid her daughter away because she feared who Red was, but now she fears her mother. When Ressler was trying to find out who Red really was, he got a visit from the KGB. Red doesn’t have a chance to respond, his friend arrives with an address of where the Grims may be.

He tells her to get out of there, he is going after the dossier.
One of the men that showed up at the Grim’s house is the President’s body men, they are not a fake Secret Service after all. Meanwhile, Red lost Grim and the drive. Red thinks Sam is dead and they sent a cleaner to take care of it.
The Secret Service is questioning Grim, he tells them that he mailed the drive to a friend named Stacey, she is a reporter. The Secret Service are on their way to the mailbox, but Aram found out the box was emptied three hours ago. Liz thinks they still might have a chance to get the drive before the Secret Service.

Red goes to see Cooper, asks him if he likes the anticipation of finding the dossier.
The task force opens the file and finds out that Diaz was planning a hit on himself. It is going to happen at a debate and the Third Estate is going to be there, who else would Anna McMahon want to blame for killing the president.
McMahon doesn’t want the president knowing the truth, she and her man lie to him about getting the dossier.
Red and Liz start talking about her mother again, he tells her that her mother was not as bad as she thinks she was. He says if she were here, he is sure she would tell Liz that she made so many mistakes; uncertain and unsure. Red tells Liz to bring Agnes home.
