Deleted Scenes: Elliot (Rami Malek) and Cisco (Michael Drayer) are waiting outside as a cover stop in their surveillance detection route. Cisco wants to know about Whiterose (BD Wong), as "he" has become a mythical figure in the Dark Army. Getting no answer, he asks what drove Elliot to start fsociety, even though he knows he and his sister are out of their minds. How did he come up with it? Silence was Darlene (Carly Chaikin)'s answer too. Cisco wishes his own story was that simple. Growing up in Shanghai until he was 10 gave him his limited knowledge of Chinese. They didn't like white boys, but the Dark Army embraced him because he could code. Then he met Darlene. Elliot mentions that they first met as Darlene's birthday party two years ago. Cisco doesn't remember, as Elliot didn't stay long.
