Well, things were bound to get increasingly messy on the way to resolution, werent they?
Michael is easily the MVP of this episode.
Still, without Michael and his willingness to hear Sam out, everyone else would be dead.
This is a very ultimatum-intensive episode.
The new Chinese ambassador insists on restitution for Chens death in the form of military contracts or blood.
The prime minister calls … an as-yet unidentified someone, demanding the recording rig.
This guyreallyloves a florid turn of phrase.
Reed instructs Sam to kill Alex Clark (and to deliver Cole to her).
Seems like a managerial skill issue to me!
Fortunately for Helen, Sam, and Cole, theyre able to cobble together something resembling a plan.
Cole gets to work trying to inform Trent that they know where Kai-Ming is.
Once Trent shows up, they can draw his mother out into the open, too.
Or, they would work on that, but Helen has been summoned home by her nanny, Marie.
In all the excitement, she lost track of time, Wallace is still at No.
10, and Marie has stayed well past the end of her usual hours.
