Plot: Agent 47 (Ed Skrein) follows a trail of blood out from the kitchen of the Shark Club all the way to an open window. He looks down below, but doesn't find anything except for a black business card with an odd white logo. He hears police sirens at the front of the nightclub responding to the gunshots. 47 shrugs and jumps out the window. He still doesn't see any more blood tracks, but decides to get out of the area quickly regardless and heads down an alley way.

Diana Burnwood (Charlotte Riley) is escorted through a high-tech facility. A large logo on the wall matches the business card found by Agent 47. Diana is told that she is at the labs of Alpha Zerox, The Franchise's cloning initiative. She sees several destroyed clones that look just like Mark being incinerated. Diana asks her guide why those clones are being incinerated, and the guide merely comments that they had defects.

Daniel Morris (William Baldwin) walks into a bathroom at the White House to find the First Lady Paula Steward (Janine Turner) having sex with one of the Secret Service agents. He waits outside the bathroom for her to finish. Paula finally comes out, flush with messed up hair. She tells him to not even think about telling her husband. Morris laughs, saying that he husband really is the useless figure head everyone in Washington says he is. Paula, angry, storms off.

Agent Carlton Smith (Will Arnett) arrives home with his wife Molly (Megan Stevenson) and three young children after going out to the movies. When they pull up, Smith notices that the light is on in his office. Smith tells his wife to keep the kids in the car until he can go in and check things out. Molly laughs, saying that all Smith could do as a internal government auditor is bore a thief to death by talking about numbers. Smith laughs and says that he's going to check things out anyways. When Smith gets to his office, he finds Agent 47 sitting in there waiting for him. Smith immediately calls out to his wife that everything is good, he forgot that he told an old friend to stop by. Molly and the kids come inside, and Smith introduces 47 to them, saying that he's an auditor at the Denver branch that he met awhile back and they've become good friends. 47 is clearly uncomfortable with the ruse Smith has chosen and smiles at Molly and the kids, introducing himself as Tobias. Molly says that she's going to put the kids to bed, so the two number-crunchers can catch up all they want.

Smith leads 47 back to his office and locks the door. Suddenly two high-tech computer monitors rise from the inside of an antique roll top desk. Smith then finally asks 47 what he came for. 47 hands the black business card to Smith, who looks the card over. He then pulls up a file on his computer about Alpha Zerox, with the logo matching. Smith says that the Alpha Zerox was started as the cloning program of The Franchise, but has slowly but surely gained far more influence on the worldwide stage than even the CIA can confirm. He says the group has pull in just about every domestic agency, and many agencies abroad. 47 asks who exactly runs these shadow organizations. Smith jokes that if they knew who was running them, they wouldn't be shadow organizations.

Leland Alexander (Chevy Chase) tells Rick Henderson (Joseph Mazzello) that most of Agent 47 and the ICA's recent assassinations were to secure the information regarding Agent 47's creation at the hands of Dr. Otto Ort-Meyer. Henderson is taking notes as Alexander describes the conditions in which Ort-Meyer bred and raised the clones to be killing machines, but that only 47 managed to survive longer than Ort-Meyer's program. Alexander shows Henderson some images of the destroyed remains of Ort-Meyer's labs and of the dozens of charred remains found inside.
