All In

Mr. Shaw reveals that he arranged for Sloane’s recruitment into the Naturals program to keep her away from his other family. He orders Sloane to stay away from Aaron and dismisses her Fibonacci theory. In defiance, Sloane asserts her pattern is real and walks out.

The killer is frustrated by the fact that he must wait before he kills again, but the pattern he is creating demands it. He knows that the FBI suspects the Grand Ballroom but is confident that they don’t understand his design. To assert his purpose, he carves into his own skin with the knife, welcoming the pain. Contemplating which FBI team member might have discerned part of his pattern, he resolves to follow through with the plan anyway.

On the day of Tory Howard’s magic show, the team finds two packages. The first contains six tickets to the show, a gift from Aaron Shaw. The second contains new FBI interview footage of Tory, now with a lawyer. Tory admits that she chose the restaurant, not Camille. She also explains that hypnotism is merely suggestion, not a form of mind control. A separate box then arrives for Sloane containing the expensive silk shirt she tried to steal—a gift from Aaron with a note that reads, “I’m not like my father” (180).
