Complete story — includes the ending

Fi and Jesse take the case of a man who claims his sister has been kidnapped by her abusive boyfriend, a corrupt Venezuelan diplomat, but they and Michael discover that he’s only being used by the thief who stole Barry’s ledger (Episode 3.8: "Friends Like These") as she attempts to avoid jail by retrieving a powerful chemical weapon she stole for Venezuelan rebels. Painted into a corner by the circumstances, they team up with her in a bid to flush the weapon out and get it back in a pre-dawn attack on the well-defended storage location. After the thief escapes yet again, with the weapon, Michael and the team manage to manufacture a fake that leads them to her own exchange, giving them the opportunity to get her out of the stealing game for good. Also, while working to rebuild trust, Michael and Jesse discover that the cryptologist is selling the list, so they contact a hesitant Marv and convince him to help them crash the auction.
