## Plot Summary

Dahlia tortures Bernard while eating her cake.

Nadia brings Mason to Citadel’s warehouse and assures him they’ll be safe because she disabled the tracker in the x-case. Inside, she treats his gunshot wound. He tells her about his wife and daughter. He asks about himself and if they were together. She tells him yes and that it was brief.

In Utah, ten years prior, before the fall of Citadel, at the Citadel U.S. headquarters Mason meets with Bernard. He finds out that a syndicate is planning to release a strain of ebola, which Citadel wants Mason to steal.

24 hours later, in the Alborz Mountains in Iran, Mason steals the virus and runs to make his escape. However, he faces a barrage of gunshots, men, and explosions. He skis his way down the mountain and faces a group of insurgents at the bottom of the mountain. A woman points his gun at him, but he’s alerted that she’s their new agent. She turns and fights with him to fend off the other men. Nadia takes an injured Mason to the extraction point and gets him out.

Later, after being treated, Nadia introduces herself. She explains that her mom was in Citadel and she’s “homegrown”. They nearly kiss and she walks away.

In Paris, Nadia and Mason make out on a bed. They sleep together and Mason asks Nadia if she can trust him. She says “of course” and asks him the question back to which he says “always”.

At the Citadel Safe house, ten years later, Nadia logs into a computer. She types in “How’s the weather?” An unknown number replies “mostly sunny” and asks if it’s really her. She asks about a package and the person replies that it’s waiting or her.

Back at Dahlia’s, she tells him about the Citadel technology they stole before the rest was destroyed. She asks him for a nineteen digit password to access the system and he relents, saying the password is “why don’t you f\*\*\* off!”. She threatens the lives of Bernard’s ex-wife Joe and daughter Val, along with Mason Kane’s wife and daughter.

In Wyoming, Bernard’s daughter gives Hendrix a knife. Abby tells Bernard’s ex-wife about how she met Kyle at a memory therapy clinic since she had a bad car accident and lost her memory.

Dahlia speaks about Carter Spence, one of Citadel’s spies, and Bernard demands to know what they did to Carter. Dahlia calls a doctor out who opens a suitcase of torture devices. He pulls two of Bernard’s teeth. She threatens to take his memories by cutting into his brainstem with a new device Anders created. Anders started but Bernard tells Anders that Brielle, the woman he loved, is still alive and that Citadel lied to him. Anders demands Bernard prove it and he asks for his phone.

At the safe house, Mason calls Abby who reassures him they’re fine. He tells her about Nadia. He tells her he’ll figure things out and come back to her. Nadia walks in and gives him cash and advice to catch a plane to go back to his family. He asks her to train him to be Mason again.

Mason shows Nadia the flashing lights in the x-case and she shows him that they’re messages. She watches one from Carter Spence who alerts them that Manticore is closing in on his location. She recognizes the location as a Black Site in Fez. She is intent on saving Carter but tells Mason she needs his help.

In Morocco, Mason gets a sit-down with Balduino. He asks for help to get into the office of the Chief of the Armed Forces. Nadia uses Mason’s lighter to upload information from Balduino’s phone. Balduino asks about Nadia and acted surprised he was close to her when she was the one who sold him out. Mason ends up in a standoff with Balduino and points his gun at his son while he runs out. Nadia drives him away and Mason asks about what Balduino was saying.

Back at Dahlia’s, Bernard shows Anders a photo of Brielle alive- but it’s a photo of Abby. They’re the same person. Bernard offers to bring him to her and tell him everything.
