Elliot realises that Mr. Robot is gone, so he decides to end Stage 2 by shutting down the backdoor, with the help of his sister Darlene. Elliot succeeds in this but is approach by this mysterious new character, a possible FBI diplomat  who tells them that Stage 2 is off. Of course Elliot and Darlene don't believe this. Wanting to fix what he did wrong, Elliot decides to work
