Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Unforeseen circumstances leave the mission in jeopardy. A suspicious Ehsan confronts Cruz before his wedding day. Joe and the team prepare for the worst.
Our Take
A tense hour that mostly earns its anxiety, with the Ehsan confrontation delivering the episode’s best moments through quiet menace rather than action. Cruz keeps proving to be the show’s most interesting character, even when the writing leans on convenient near-misses. Some of the military side feels like treading water, but the final stretch sets up the finale well enough that it’s worth your time.
