John may not talk about Finch very often, rarely in fact, but he knows Karen is aware just how much he misses his friend. Harold Finch gave him his life back, gave him purpose, and the Machine was a big part of that.

But Finch isn't here. Not anymore. They have to figure out what to do without him.

"So what do we do?" he asks. It would surprise most people to find out that John is actually quite adept with computers. Being in the CIA had taught him more than a few tricks when it comes to hacking and taking possession of someone else's information, but in a case like this he would always defer to Finch. And now he'll defer to Root.

He'll do what she tells him to.
