"eps3.8_stage3.torrent" is the ninth episode of the third season of the American drama thriller television series Mr. Robot. It is the 31st overall episode of the series and was written by executive producer Kyle Bradstreet and Courtney Looney, and directed by series creator Sam Esmail. It originally aired on USA Network on December 6, 2017.
The series follows Elliot Alderson, a cybersecurity engineer and hacker with social anxiety disorder, who is recruited by an insurrectionary anarchist known as "Mr. Robot" to join a group of hacktivists called "fsociety". In the episode, Elliot decides to set up a meeting with Whiterose, while Darlene seduces Dominique in order to get information.
According to Nielsen Media Research, the episode was seen by an estimated 0.437 million household viewers and gained a 0.2 ratings share among adults aged 18–49. The episode received mixed reviews from critics, who questioned the episode's narrative and logic.
In a flashback, Gideon (Michel Gill) holds a meeting with Tyrell (Martin Wallström), Price (Michael Cristofer) and Terry Colby (Bruce Altman), after they hire Allsafe to provide computer security at E Corp. During the meeting, Angela (Portia Doubleday) enters to give a folder to Gideon, catching Price's interest. On the way out, Price and Tyrell debate the merits of hiring Allsafe.
In present day, Elliot (Rami Malek) discovers that Mr. Robot (Christian Slater) was out during the night and left a message on the bathroom mirror, which reads "They own the FBI." He tells Darlene (Carly Chaikin) that he will try to get Romero's encryption keys of Five/Nine within the FBI. Despite Elliot's claim that the Dark Army controls the FBI, Darlene leaves to get information from Dominique (Grace Gummer). Elliot forces Irving (Bobby Cannavale) to set up a meeting with Whiterose (BD Wong), but is then confronted by Leon (Joey Badass) at his apartment, who wants Elliot to come with him.
It is revealed that during the previous night, Mr. Robot met with Tyrell at his apartment, after the latter was cleared of all charges. As Tyrell prepares to brutally beat Mr. Robot, they are interrupted by Price. Price has chosen to appoint Tyrell as the CTO, but only as a figurehead. After he leaves, Tyrell and Mr. Robot decide to work together to take down the Dark Army, as they know it has a mole in the FBI. Darlene meets with Dominique, attempting to seduce her in order to get her badge. When she resists, Darlene convinces her in taking her to her apartment. Though Dominique initially resists her advances, she eventually gives in and they have sex. While Dominique sleeps, Darlene tries to get the badge, only to be caught by Dominique.
In FBI custody, Darlene says she knows a way to undo the hack and tells Dominique that the Dark Army has infiltrated the FBI. This spooks the mole, Santiago (Omar Metwally), who calls Irving to inform him of Darlene's plan. Leon leads Elliot to meet with Grant (Grant Chang), where he discusses his plan for a Stage 3 and has his laptop scanned by the Dark Army. Grant then meets with Whiterose, who is angry that moving the plant to the Congo will now take an additional month. He then talks about Elliot's Stage 3, which Whiterose is confused with. Elliot is revealed to have lied; he gained access to the Dark Army's network when they scanned his laptop. Realizing their situation, Whiterose gives Chang permission to kill Elliot.
