*Moscow* is the seventh episode of the third season of QIA.

## Summary

The agents of the London Hub must mediate between world governments, but the world of time-travel is about to change considerably.

## Blurb

“We have a Russian problem.” - Cameron Campbell

The QIA, and in particular Agent Sarah Cunnington, finds themselves having to mediate between three of the world’s most powerful governments after both the Americans and the Russians lay claim to their prisoner, Sacha Bell – a former associate of Brent Hall. As the team desperately try to find a way to appease everyone, a monumental secret deep within the wilderness beyond Moscow is about to be unleashed – and it’s going to be a game changer…

## Synopsis

Cameron Campbell, a distasteful government minister, meets with Enora to inform her that, despite the American government having been promised QIA prisoner Sacha Bell, the Russians now also want him, and it is up to her and her people to sort it out.

The team concoct a plan to fake Bell's death to fool the Russians so they can still extradite him to Washington. In the meantime, Sarah, Iulya and Carlos fly out to Moscow to meet with Irina Polyakov, a Deputy Prime Minister, while Hafiz and Ethan fly to Washington to try and smooth things over with the Americans.

During their stay in Moscow, Irina reveals to her guests the existence of the OVM - the Russian government's own version of the QIA. Under orders from Geneva, Iulya attempts to disable the facility with a virus. Meanwhile, the team learn that the OVM is in fact not yet operational, as the Russians were awaiting a final set of files and schematics, which had been part of an arrangement between the Russian government and Brent Hall, who had been using Bell as a courier - hence the reason why they want him so badly.

After faking Bell's death, Tom and a security team led by Paul Thorne secretly fly Bell to America, but their jet is hijacked by Konstantin Denisov, one of the OVM's operatives, who murders the security agents, including Thorne, and kills the pilot, taking Bell with him and leaving Tom to make the decision to blow up the jet before it crash-lands in a heavily populated area.
