We meet Betty, an NSA employee who has no time for the birthday celebration in the other room.
Its not her annoyance with cake thats keeping her away though, but rather her mission.
Shes not done, though.

The paramedics arrive and carry her out, and for now thats all we know.
Its so ludicrously dourRichdoescall her Lord Dour of Dourton Abbey later in the episodethat I couldnt help but chuckle.
Anyways, their moment gets interrupted whenNas shows up at their door.
She says she needs their help with something thats related to one of Janes tattoos.
When everybody heads into the FBI headquarters, Nas gives them the details.
She has a lot of information.
First, that Crawford was the initial funder of Sandstorm.
Suddenly, we understand our shoe lady who hates birthdays andlovesbobbleheads.
It turns out that shes an infamous hacker that goes by the name Pop Up Kid.
After doing a little more digging, her real identity is revealed: Delilah Dunny.
They also find out that shes already auctioned off the rig.
Eventually they trace that purchase to Tropic Song, LLC, a name thatscreamsshell company.
Sure enough, some 16-year-old kid acted as a hacker for the company and purchased the machine.
I remain intensely bored by this storyline, and by everything the couple does.
Their forced romance and penchant for globetrotting just doesnt add anything to the story.
But, back to the case!
Much to Reades chagrin, she agrees.
While the team prepares for their night of dark web debauchery, Reade gets some bad news.
Rich, of course, takes his coververyseriously, snorting coke and making himself the life of the party.
Unfortunately, his actions draws the attention of Sho Akhtar, a dangerous criminal in his own right.
What follows is an elaborate, chaotic set of scenes where everyone is trying to steal the Negral rig.
The ruse only works for so long though, and eventually everyone is fighting for the equipment.
She says yes, and now we have that to deal with.
I hate being so pessimistic, butBlindspotreally struggles when it comes to romance.
