Loved the touch of Robyn stealing the file from the CIA. Until Diego reappeared and stole the file from them. The bad guys kept getting there first, but, because they didn’t know where to look (or what to look for), Rick and Robyn had more success. Rick’s knowledge of how his dead friend thought turned out to be invaluable. It’s just one of those weird, probably unimportant, details that sends my brain off on a tangent. I know we don’t have an exact timeline for when she and her husband broke up, but it was just difficult for me to reconcile this affair as having happened after Delilah’s birth. Which was about the time she walked away from the CIA. The thing that really threw me was the dialog, later in the episode, that indicated their separation happened only 3 years ago. It looked like that realization was going to be enough to rekindle their relationship but….the phone rang. The man Rick “killed”, Diego Alcazar, was feet away from killing Robyn and he had to protect her. Turns out that the CIA was right to get Robyn out of there. Robyn left the assignment without saying anything to Rick and wants the opportunity to ask him what happened years ago. Robyn and Rick were not just partners on that recruiting assignment, they were lovers. I know Fisk thought the possible death of millions of people would be the thing that convinced Robyn to accept the assignment, but I’m pretty sure it was the chance to see Rick again. Robyn’s the only person that can get close enough to Dawson to get him to listen to their offer and agree to help find a file that contains the location of stolen enriched plutonium rings.
