Jane walked out into the rain, the USB clutched in her fist. The season’s true question wasn’t who is Jane Doe? It was can a person choose a different ending than the one written in their past?
Edgar Reade shook his head. “There is no ‘before.’ There’s only now. Whose side are you on?”
As Shepherd vanished into a cloud of smoke grenades, Jane turned to face Weller as he dropped to the floor. His gun was still raised. Not at Shepherd. At her.
“You have two hours,” he said coldly. “Download those memories. Find out who you really are. And then come find me—if you’re still one of us.” Blindspot - Season 2
