Once she 's safe, Michael secures support from Agent Pearce and the CIA, who now has Anson on their watchlist, as they corner him in a chemical plant. They almost capture him, but have to let him go after he rigs the place to a dead man switch, whereas Sam narrowly escapes when the plant explodes anyway. On the other hand, Fiona is interrogated by Michael 's old nemesis, Agent Bly, and, despite her claims she acted alone at the British consulate, he pressures her to implicate Michael in the bombing. 82 `` Mixed Messages '' Jeffrey Donovan Alfredo Barrios, Jr. June 21, 2012 ( 2012 - 06 - 21 ) BN602 4.09 To gain visitation rights with Fiona, Michael is reunited by the CIA with his training officer, Tom Card, who assigns Michael to bring down a major drug ring. When the approach reveals a cartel lawyer who knows Michael from a previous case ( see : `` Fight or Flight '' ), Jesse ends up being forced to go it alone, and he gradually works his way up the chain of command where he 's able to force the number two guy to become a cooperating witness for the authorities. At the same time, Fiona is fighting off prison attacks, both from big - shot inmates and outside forces who extort another prisoner ( Guest Star : Taryn Manning ) to kill Fiona when she 's on kitchen duty, but she survives and, with his mission done, fills Michael in at his first visit.

They team up with Jesse to follow the man on a cruise, creating a fake outbreak of a viral sickness and panicking his family in Miami into giving up the files. Meanwhile, after learning she 's been marked for death, Fiona befriends the prison 's chief distributor of banned goods to help her find out who 's after her, and, once she does a favor for her new ally, she asks Michael in his next visit to go after a guard involved in the plot to kill her. 84 `` Under the Gun '' Dennie Gordon Michael Horowitz July 12, 2012 ( 2012 - 07 - 12 ) BN604 4.44 Michael and the guys are tracking down the prison guard who 's after Fiona, but things get more difficult when Sam is taken prisoner by the man 's killer, a former spy named Rebecca ( Guest Star : Kristanna Loken ) being forced by Anson to do his bidding. While Sam works to shake her off, Michael and Jesse give chase, and are eventually able to convince her that they can work together to help her brother, who Anson is using as leverage against her. Along the way, Fiona asks Michael to track down a package for her new distributor friend, who needs it to keep from being thrown into solitary confinement, leading Michael to use force when her brutal ex-husband refuses to hand it over. 85 5 `` Split Decision '' Scott Peters Ryan Johnson & Peter Lalayanis July 19, 2012 ( 2012 - 07 - 19 ) BN605 4.97 As the team 's new ally, Rebecca explains that her brother, an informer on a small - time mobster, is on the run from the man 's son, who blames the kid for his father 's dying while imprisoned. While working to make the guy believe he has the wrong informer, the team slowly gains Rebecca 's trust, allowing them an inside look into Anson 's future plans. At the prison, Card comes to Fiona with a deal : he 'll get her out, and protect her as a CIA asset, but she has to give up a former associate in the arms dealing business, so she calls on Michael after the guy refuses to meet with anyone else. 86 6 `` Shock Wave '' Renny Harlin Jason Tracey July 26, 2012 ( 2012 - 07 - 26 ) BN606 4.86 With Rebecca 's information, and full CIA support, Michael and his team follow Anson to Atlantic City to capture him once and for all. Nate tags along on the stakeout and almost messes it up, so Michael kicks him out, but he redeems himself when Anson leads the CIA on a wild goose chase and Nate 's the only one close enough to make the arrest. Tragedy strikes, though, when an unknown sniper kills both Anson and Nate at the handoff, leaving Michael 's mother despondent and his life shaken to the core. At the same time, Sam takes Barry to a beach house where he has stored important files for his clients, but armed mercenaries sent to kill Barry arrive before they can leave and trap them inside. While they work to get rid of the pests and escape intact, the British government comes to take Fiona, who 's holding out hope that Michael is about to secure her freedom.

Meanwhile, they decide to use Gray to feed information to Card, who has assigned him with burning down the loft and bringing him Michael 's files on Anson, but their meeting ends with both men murdered, Gray by Card and Card by Michael in cold blood for his deviousness. 93 13 `` Over the Line '' Marc Roskin Ben Watkins November 15, 2012 ( 2012 - 11 - 15 ) BN613 3.17 In the wake of murdering Card, the CIA, led by legendary agent Olivia Riley, are hot on Michael 's tail.

When he pins them in an abandoned warehouse, the crew improvise to salvage both their lives and the chips.

The duo are able to find Jesse and rescue him, but Sam is fading, so they rush to a recently disgraced doctor for the surgery needed to save him. Meanwhile, the `` friend '' turns out to be Bly, who meets with Michael to discuss Card 's transgressions and offer Michael a deal to turn himself in, but he refuses and decides to remain on the run. 98 18 `` Game Change '' Matt Nix Matt Nix December 20, 2012 ( 2012 - 12 - 20 ) BN618 3.78 After Riley sends a hit squad to take them out, Michael and his team track the assassins and discover Riley is teaming up with a drug cartel that Michael infuriated sometime before.

He pursues the cartel 's boat and carefully works his way to the control room, where he ends up in a standoff with Riley, a close shave that ends when she agrees to confess to save their lives. Three weeks later, Michael 's friends and family are still in CIA custody, until the day arrives when they are released, and Fiona is particularly shocked and disappointed when they find that Michael is back running special missions for the CIA.
