Background
Demoted through HR's scheming, Carter digs into the organisation, exposes and arrests its leader, and is then killed by its rogue second-in-command; Reese leaves the team for a time in his grief. The team also fights Vigilance, a violent privacy-activist group. In the second half the code for a rival artificial intelligence, Samaritan, falls into Decima's hands. In the finale it emerges that Greer secretly built Vigilance and staged an attack in its name so the government would switch Samaritan on with direct NSA feeds; the Machine gives the team new identities, and Root and Shaw make Samaritan treat them as harmless. The season averaged 14.05 million viewers.
