NUMB3RS Summary "Brutus" Episode 10 - Season 3

In this episode, an autonomous tip leads Don's team to the Quincy Hotel where California State Senator Martin Tallman is giving a speech. The tip claims a man with a gun is going to kill the senator. Don, David and Colby are at the hotel while Megan is at the FBI offices and Charlie and Amita are at CalSci watching the ballroom through a satellite link. Charlie and Megan are able to figure out who in the ballroom is going to kill the senator but before David and Colby can stop him, the suspect opens fire and kills Tallman, then commits suicide.

Looking into the gunman Colby and Megan find evidence the man, Min, was taking speed and also getting a monthly check from the US army. Don also gets a visit from an agent Raymond with the CIA who tells Don about experiments using political prisoners as sleeper assassins and offers co-operation. David discovers the gun used to kill the senator was oner of three bought in Nevada through a straw purchase and the FBI sets out to find the other guns.

Larry drops a bombshell of his own when he announces he is leaving CalSci for a NASA mission to the International Space Station to study cosmic background microwaves and their affect on NSA satellites. Charlie doesn't believe Larry will go through with the mission, Megan is very supportive and proud of him.

Before the FBI can make much headway finding the guns from Nevada, a second man, a psychologist named Davis is killed; this time however the gunman does not succeed in killing himself, and walks away from the scene. Fingerprints found on the gun identify Carlos Costavo, a Cuban refugee, as the shooter. Colby and David track down Carlos who tells them a man named Marcus found him claiming to be a doctor following up on the treatment he, Carlos, received through experiments while in Chino State Prison.
