She does a nice job of it, though. Nice clean cut, nice insertion of the tracheotomy tube. Buddy's able to start breathing through the tube, which is an immense relief to Charlie and Olivia -- at least until, while they watch, the skin starts growing over the tracheotomy tube too. "No, no, no, no, no!" says Olivia, but within seconds, the tube is just a skin-covered protuberance in the suffocating agent's neck.
Back at the federal building, the mood is grim. Olivia glares at Harass as she walks down the steps into the bullpen, and he looks too weaselly to even sneer properly. He takes off his watch and drops it in a brown paper bag.
Then Harass is in a darkened surveillance room, where he's got a couple of agents monitoring Jones in the interview room. "I want to record every twitch," he says. He's acting all tough again.
Olivia walks into the interview room, carrying a paper bag, and Jones takes a break from his coughing to call her a "welcome face." "A colleague of mine just died," she says, and Jones says he "tried to prevent that," but Agent Harass "needed some convincing." Given that Jones has been sitting here the whole time, how exactly did the most recent death occur as a result of Harass coming in to question Jones? Anyway, Olivia passes over the paper bag with the stuff Jones needed. "This will only take a moment," he says. In the surveillance room, Harass orders the agent to zoom in on the Jones' hands.
Jones goes to work, taking apart the walkie-talkie, and the watch. "That's a thousand-dollar watch!" complains Harass in the surveillance room. You gave the evil genius your watch? How could you not think he was going to get all MacGyver up in this motherfucker when one of the other things he wanted was an EYEGLASS REPAIR KIT with its little screwdrivers, come on! Anyway, Jones sticks a screw in here, and attaches a pen spring there, and then turns a little dial and suddenly shrill feedback fills both the surveillance room and the observation room. "I've managed to get us some privacy," he says, adding they don't have much time. "You killed Thomas Avery," says Olivia, which Jones calls a "stage setter" that doesn't have to be followed. "So you're planning something else?" asks Olivia, and Jones is all, "Oh, YEAH. Something far worse." He needs Olivia's services, though. Olivia asks him what the hell he wants. "I need you to pass a test," he says.
Harass bursts into the observation room wanting the interview room shut down because Jones is blocking the surveillance. Broyles tells him to relax, that Jones isn't going to hurt anyone: "He's just trying to show you who's in charge," he says.
