Plot Summary
In this episode, Frank Goren, who has unsuccessfully attempted to contact his brother Robert, convinces Eames to intercede on his behalf and convince Robert to talk to him. Robert, still angered by Frank's actions following their mother's death (Endgame), learns that he has a nephew Frank had not mentioned previously. He also learns that this nephew is being held in a prison in upstate New York, and that he claims to have witnessed the guards murder another prisoner and engage in cruel behavior. Robert agrees to do what he can to investigate.
Goren is rebuffed by Captain Ross, as he lacks jurisdiction. He decides to proceed nevertheless, filing off his fingerprints so they will not show he is a police officer. Keeping Eames in the loop, he gets himself arrested and sent to Tates Correctional Facility, the prison in question.

Famous quotes containing the words plot and/or summary:
“There comes a time in every man’s education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better for worse as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given him to till.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I have simplified my politics into an utter detestation of all existing governments; and, as it is the shortest and most agreeable and summary feeling imaginable, the first moment of an universal republic would convert me into an advocate for single and uncontradicted despotism. The fact is, riches are power, and poverty is slavery all over the earth, and one sort of establishment is no better, nor worse, for a people than another.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
