Season 1, Episode 8:

Foe

Former Stasi hitman Ulrich Kohl arrives in New York, pursued by German intelligence and determined to carry out a mission of revenge against his former colleagues who have since defected to the United States. When his number comes up, Reese and Finch intervene to try and stop Kohl before his Roaring Rampage of Revenge reaches his supposedly-dead wife, while Carter and Fusco attempt to smooth over a potential international incident.

In flashbacks to 2006, Reese reports for his first CIA operation and meets his new partner, Cara Stanton, who has the task of bestowing him with a new operational name. They meet with a pair of American spies who have been flagged -- by an anonymous source -- as being responsible for helping a terrorist escape the country. Stanton casually murders both spies and orders her new partner to clean up the mess, and comes up with his new name: "John Reese".
