Captain Fowler:  It looked like another dead end . Then this morning , Elena got another text from the ring . This time , they wanted to meet her to offer her a promotion .
Kate Beckett: Which would give you guys a chance to get eyes on someone .
Captain Fowler: It 's the break we 've been waiting for . So we leveraged Elena to take the meet , but she tried to commit suicide .
Captain Victoria Gates: She 's in intensive care under police guard .
Kate Beckett: Sir , I 'm sorry to hear about that , but what does this all have to do with me ?
Captain Fowler: The meeting is set for _ five _ today , and a chance like this is not gon na come back around , so we combed the NYPD database for someone of about Elena 's age and appearance who speaks fluent Russian , in case that 's relevant . Only one name came up . Yours .
Kate Beckett: You want me to go in her place ?
Captain Fowler: To the Widmark . Show up , meet your contact , and leave . In and out .
Kate Beckett: What if they found out that you turned Elena , and that this is all a trap ?
Captain Fowler: Then they would n't be meeting at the Widmark Hotel . We were very careful . No one knows she 's made contact with us .
Captain Victoria Gates: Still , there 's a risk that they could see Detective Beckett and realize that she 's not Elena .
Captain Fowler: In the text , they asked Elena to wear a red scarf , which tells us that they do n't know her on sight . My people will be in place , watching every move you make . We can even fit you with a monitored mic if you like .
Captain Fowler: Detective
Captain Fowler: , something big is going on out there , and this is our best chance to find out what . But the meeting 's in two hours , so I need your answer .
