The Old Man - IX & X

Episode IX catches up with Angela (Alia Shawkat) since her abduction. We see her learning the truth about her biological parentage and some antagonistic back-and-forth dialogues with Faraz Hamzad (Navid Negahban) including one where the pair attempt to murder each other.

Looking to expose the evil machinations of Barbara Trevino (Claudette Nevins) concerning illegal mining in the Amazon Rainforest, reclusive scientist Dr. Vincent Winninger (Elliott Gould) offers Lois (Teri Hatcher) a once-in-a-lifetime interview only to for her to witness his murder. She identifies the killer, or at least thinks she has, when in fact the real killer is makeup artist Sebastian Finn (played by several actors but credited to William Mesnik) who has a talent for disguising himself as virtually anyone.
