Erik now has his painkiller addiction under control after two years. He is being bullied by Arrington, who also breaks into his room to look for drugs. Erik offers to mentor her and reassures her that it is clean. Arrington rejects his offer because he believes he is carrying out the assignment for the wrong reasons.

Farr persuades Rose and Peter in another location that she is on their side and desires to deliver the hard drive to the President. Rose assures her that they will continue the effort and complete the task that her aunt and uncle began. Rose says that she discovered an address on the hard drive and that she and Peter will follow up on this tip. Although Farr warns him it will be risky, he vows to inform the President of the situation and buy them time. Farr assures Rose that she will research the codename after Rose inquires about Osprey.

Rose begs Peter not to surprise her in the same manner again as they make their way to the address. She inquires about Zadar, the PIF leader and a dissident from the Balkans. Peter is unsure as to whether Zadar was actually responsible for the Metro bombing. When they arrive at the address, they ponder why an engineering firm would be located in a remote area so distant from a city. When they first encounter Lorna, they pose as journalists. Rose's identification convinces Lorna to let them in after first refusing to believe them.

Lorna used to work with Emma and Henry, and the three of them even grew close. The news of their passing saddens her. They persuade her to assist them since they believe an attack is about to happen. She had been approached by Emma and Henry to obtain blueprints. As it is her job to gather intelligence rather than evaluate it, Lorna didn't inquire as to why. She offers to explain the other documents Henry and Emma requested so they can understand them.

While on their way into town, Rose finds out how Lorna met her aunt and uncle. When she finds out more about their secret lives, she is startled. They had a wonderful life, Lorna assures her, doing meaningful work. Osprey is a codename Peter inquires about, but Lorna is not familiar with it. She also queries how Peter and Rose came to be. She pretends as though she doesn't know Peter's father but seems to.

When they are in town, they head to a cafe where Rose and Lorna use the internet to browse the documents that she provided to Henry and Emma. Lorna doubts Peter's reliability as he surveys the region. They scan the files for his name, but there are no results.

Peter discovers that the cafe and the location Henry and Emma were looking into are just underneath the Metro station. They should look into the original target the bomb was intended for, Lorna says. She warns them to be cautious as they part ways. She advises Peter to put his concern about establishing his father's innocence aside because it will hurt.

Maddie's teacher and her grow close and kiss at Georgetown University. Even a portrait of her by her teacher is in progress. They make love and kiss, but the teacher withdraws. He acts sorry for acting inappropriately, but Maddie insists it's fine. He still makes his excuses.

The Night Agent is streaming on Netflix.
