Michael Westen finally has his hands on the list that contains information about all the names of the people behind his burn notice. He has decided to hand it over to the government and trust that they will reconsider the black-listing, so that he and Jesse can be reinstated in their respective counter-intelligence jobs. Michael also chose Jesse’s former handler, Marv, to arrange the hand-over. Marv doesn’t trust Michael, and resents him for causing Jesse’ burn notice. So he straps him on the polygraph to verify he’s talking the truth. “State your name and occupation,” Marv asks. “My name is Michael Westen. I used to be a spy.”
Meanwhile, an old cop friend of Sam has gone missing, allegedly after nicking a lot of cocaine off some dealers. So Sam feels obliged to help the guy’s wife clear his name. Top brass has already closed the case. But Sam thinks it stinks. They learn from some scumbag dealer that Sam’s friend Kevin was set up by his partner Pete, and then killed. Now they have to set up Pete to trap him into selling the stash. They bring on the heat by pretending they killed the scumbag dealer and – even better – that Kevin is still alive and talking to Internal Affairs. Pete wants to make a deal fast, but instead of bringing drugs, he sets off an explosion of his own. With nothing else left, Michael threatens to kill him if he won’t give him the coke. Pete offers to drop it off at Kevin’s house, since it’s too hot to deal on the street, blame it on his ex-partner all over again. When he does, Sam is waiting with a Police Lieutenant’s crew. He finally got busted.
Marv checks up on some of Michael’s stories without raising any flags, and they check out. He decides to help Michael and Jesse hand over the list. But when they meet, Marv is sweating and nervous. He is escorted by three guys wearing Homeland Security uniforms. They also have silencers on their pistols. Something is wrong. They already have the flash drive. Marv is dead. The list is gone. Tyler Brennan, a former spy and arms dealer (who appeared before in seasons two and three), just stole Michael’s precious information! No end in sight. Fun!
