The search for the killers of FBI agent Chris Amador is on.Stan tries shaking down Nina for information about Amador's death but she doesn't know anything. She asks him about the death of Vlad. He lies to her and tells her he doesn't know anything about it, even though he's the one who killed him.
The FBI locates the vehicle in which Amador was transported after he was stabbed. They know it's the vehicle because they find his ring in the trunk. It was delivered to a scrapyard. The owner of the scrapyard claims to know nothing until Stan roughs him up. It isn't long before the scrapyard owner finds a familiar face in a book of mug shots. The face he finds belongs to the guy that Beeman and Amador chased in Philadephia but lost in 1.03 (Gregory). They locate the guy shake him down. He acts tough at first but eventually gives up Gregory's name.
Philip and Elizabeth are still separated. There's a little bit of drama surrounding their marital issues but most of their time in this episode is spent trying to convince Gregory to go along with their plan to get him out of the country. The KGB gives him two options: move to Moscow or death. They force his hand by planting evidence in his apartment linking him to the murder of Amador. He wants to move to Los Angeles and hopes he can disappear there. That option isn't on the table.
Philip has orders to kill Gregory if he won't go. Gregory acknowledges his situation but he doesn't want to move to Moscow. He wants to go out on his own terms. Philip is reluctant to let him do so but Elizabeth seems to talk him into it. Gregory gets into a gun fight with the Metropolitan Police Department and is killed.
On the whole I thought this was a decent episode, much better than the previous one. It wasn't good enough to sway my feelings on the show as a whole.
