If It Serves a Greater Good

Vasili Sirin is revealed to have escaped capture by armed men disguised as paramedics, who are later revealed to have been hired by CIA Deputy Director Reuel Abbott to secure Sirin, as he reveals to the Director of National Intelligence Robin Larkin. Having recovered from hospital, Joe Turner returns home and stays with Mae Barber and her children. He attends the wake uncle Bob's house, where he discovers hidden files on Gordon Piper before getting knocked out by an unknown assailant. When he regains consciousness, the house is filled with guests following Partridge's funeral. Sam Barber Jr. deliberately spills his drink on Abbott's shoes, thinking Abbott was involved in his father's death. Joe jogs to Piper's house at night and observes him and his wife, Eva. On his way back to Mae's house, he is picked up by Tracy Crane, who admits to be working in intelligence and takes Joe to see Larkin, who asks what Joe knows about Vasili and the mole.
