Alex is being held in an interrogation room – and is shocked when Hannah arrives to question her. Hannah points out that it is a little ironic that Alex has found herself in the middle of a huge conspiracy, two years in a row. Hannah demands answers, before the government fires a missile in NYC and takes out the Citizen Liberation Front ad remaining hostages.

Alex explains that the FBI sent her undercover at the CIA training camp with Ryan. Hannah happens to be Ryan’s ex-wife.

Alex explains the Citizens Liberation Front, how Ryan infiltrated them but she failed the mission and stayed at the CIA.

Alex and the CIA students are sent on their next mission – they all head to a bar and have to befriend as many people as possible and get their phone numbers. Alex and Dayana excel at the mission. Sebastian on the other hand is having a tough time, so is Leon.

Leon is a mess after he and Dayana and Ryan had to kill someone for the AIC. Dayana tries to get him to snap out of it before he exposes all of them.

Apparently Owen hall is now in prison for something. But, Alex insists to Hannah that he is a missing piece of the puzzle.

Shelby interrupts Alex’s interrogation. Shelby has a theory – it’s a bit confusing, but makes sense. Shelby thinks that the terrorists are not the AIC, they are actually hunting the AIC. And, that’s why they are interrogating everyone in the building and then releasing them or executing them – the terrorists are trying to find the AIC too.

Alex is more focused on seducing Owen than her mark though. Lucky for her, Owen is spending the night at the bar and becoming drunk and vulnerable. Alex decides to speed up the process and slips something in to Owen’s drink, then she takes him up to his hotel room.

Dayana heads in to the hotel room with her mark – but she snaps when things get hot and heavy and knocks the guy out. She calls Leon for help to clean up the mess. The next day they all head back to class and Owen gives them a speech on crossing lines that they don’t feel comfortable crossing for the good of their country.
