Complete story — includes the ending

Max and Weston narrow their list of possible moles in the FBI, a list that includes Agent Mendez. Ryan doesn't believe she's guilty, but questions her outside of her apartment. Ryan and Weston then track Mendez as she travels to her ex lover Jana's house. Jana brings Mendez into the garage to talk, where Jana stabs her. Jana's friend lets Mike and Ryan in. They find Mendez and have an ambulance called before cornering Jana and questioning her about where Joe is. Jana proceeds to shoot herself in the head. Mendez is taken away, alive, in an ambulance. Micah asks Joe for advice about how to handle Julia and the tension between the two. Joe and Micah later kill her after a failed attempt on her part to shoot them. Micah tells Joe of his desire to "make a splash". Micah sends Robert and Emma on a mission as his "messengers" along with an ex-killer cult member, Lance. Robert, Emma, and Lance show up at a book store where Carrie is having a book signing and they begin killing at random before Emma hands Carrie a video clip, instructing her to share it with the world or else they'd come back for her. Robert and Emma escape, but Lance purposely stays behind and is eventually shot dead after holding a knife to a police officer. Carrie plays the clip on her news report, which Joe watches along with Micah, Emma, and Robert. While watching, Joe hands out drinks to the group. Micah realizes the video being shown is not the one he had intended for them to deliver. Rather, it is a video of Joe announcing to the world that he's still alive and nobody is to feel safe. Micah then falls to the floor dead foaming at the mouth, due to his drink being poisoned. Robert later gathers the cult and proclaims Joe as their new leader. Back at Ryan's apartment, Weston and Max leave Ryan to spend the evening with Carrie who is later kissed by Ryan. Weston gets into a car with unknown men, and is transferred to another car and blindfolded on the way to a location where he meets up with Marshal Scott Turner. Turner brings him to a room where he's greeted by Claire Matthews.
