The fallout from last week’s botched drone bombing of a suspected terrorist continues as Arthur (Peter Gallagher) is ordered in front of a Senate Oversight Committee, Joan (Kari Matchett) orders Annie (Piper Perabo) to return to the Blue Bonnet facility to resume her complete Moscow debriefing, and Annie’s asset (Michelle Nolden), who is now targeted for death by the man (Haaz Sleiman) the CIA failed to kill, has disappeared. As Auggie (Christopher Gorham) and Barber (Dylan Taylor), and a boatload of CIA agents, are called into help circle the wagons Annie is left a difficult choice to play it safe, keep her head down, and follow orders or head out without support to find the missing journalist.
